That is impossible to say in a general way but generally speaking: significantly less.

On our PHEV minivan, the electric range is ~30mi, and costs ~$1.50 in electricity (12 kWh usable, ~13c/kWh). On gas, it's ~$3. (30 mi/g, $3/g). Some places you'll save substantially more (cheaper electricity, more expensive gas) or less (vice versa).
> Will you also address the point that giving arabs more land will not make them stop wanting to destroy Jews?

I'd address that point by noting that one of Hamas's likely goals in the Oct 7 attack was to prevent the upcoming Saudi diplomatic recognition of Israel. https://www.politico.eu/article/saudi-arabia-israel-deal-tat... https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-67922238

You're doing a lot of conflating Jews with Israel/Zionism/Netanyahu, and Arabs/Muslims/Palestinians with Hamas. There's a reason no one reputable is calling this the "Arab-Jewish War".

> So Caceres is now arguing that it’s time for the US to try the P4x approach: that a part of the solution to foreign cybersecurity threats is for the American government’s own hackers to show their teeth—and to use them far more often.

I wonder if we don't because we are far too vulnerable. How secure is our basic public infrastructure? (Power grid, water purification, home networks of political figures, etc.) In terms of political strategy, I'd bet we use our military might to compensate for our relative vulnerability on the 'cyber' front.
Why blame the Fed? The low interest rates that made it easy to buy homes (driving up the price) also should have made it cheap to build homes which would have driven down the price. It was local regulations that prevented building homes.

Have you try to inflation-adjust that? You may find the price jump is not that great for the last ~10 years.
You are making an extraordinary claim, and they require extraordinary evidence. Unless presented it is a good idea to assume they are bogus.

You assert a dichotomy where no split really exists. Qt the end of the day, things like tr or xz or sed invocations are not part of bash as a language. They are seperate tool invocations. Python or any other programming language could have things hidden in them just as easily.

And the other major issue here, is that xz is a basic system unit, often part of a bare bones, ultra basic, no fluff, embedded linux deployment where other higher level languages likely wouldn't be. It makes sense for the tools constituting the build infra to be low dependency.

And yes. In a low dependency state, you have to be familiar with your working units, because by definition, you have fewer of them.

Unironically, if more people weren't cripplingly dependent on luxuries like modern package managers have gotten them accustomed to, this all would have stuck out like a sore thumb, which it still did once people actually looked at the damn thing*.
> According to its data, there were 10 fatalities out of an estimated 3.65 million jumps in 2023

So, among the USPA's membership, there's a ~3 * 10^-6 chance of death per jump, which is basically compatible with how it had been described to me in the past: ~1/1000 chance that your main chute doesn't deploy, times a ~1/1000 chance that the reserve doesn't deploy, times a small factor because people (especially beginners) do dumb stuff.

At $10M statistical life in the US, that's $30 per jump, which is less than, but not vastly less than, the price of the jump itself. It seems quite plausible that the jump centers that are not members of the USPA have higher risk, which could start too look overly risky (in the specific sense that consumers would be much less likely to participate if they had access to the figures). But I'd bet it's less than $200/jump worth of risk.

I wish these sorts of discussions would focus more on the numbers and making sure the risks are tracked and public.
It's well, well above the rate of inflation.

This code terminates only if all child-problems eventually are found not to have subproblems. So either it has infinite subproblems or it returns true. So recursion is good for a use case unless the problem decomposes into infinite subproblems, but in that case this test function never returns false.

Makes more sense to do it as breadth-first with only one return value:

from collections import deque
def isRecursionOk(problem):
q = deque(problem)
while q:
problem = q.popleft()
q.append(list(breakDownIntoSubProblems(problem)))
return true

I vaguely remember looking into this before, and it turned out that the tasters were being told (incorrectly) that it was a red wine, and asked to describe the flavour profile. They then used tasting terms more frequently associated with reds than with whites, and didn't question what they were told.

So it's less a case of "they cannot distinguish red from white" and more a case of "they went along with a suggested classification". I feel like this is a weaker result, although it's still a little surprising.

It's kind of weird that these days, many (most?) projects use Cmake directly as their build tool. They don't generate a VC or Xcode project and then work from that; they generate a VC project and then immediately build it. The CMakeLists.txt effectively is the project definition. VS now has support for opening CMake projects directly, without creating a VS project file from them. So the thing that made CMake useful (and what also makes it complicated...), is now used less and less.

Can Claude Design CSS? A Case Study
> better than most rechargeable battery technologies

you can't compare heat storage to electricity, because you can't directly use heat for anything else other than for heating, where as electricity can be used to perform motion.

If you used heat storage as a battery, there's an additional loss when converting to electricity.

However, if the heat is cheap/free during summer, storing it for winter is a no brainer.
Exclusionary zoning for density is just a bad idea in general. I can understand zoning for stuff like noise and pollution. But separating commercial, office, and residential zoning as well as separating dense and less dense is the biggest contributor to housing shortages.

California took a huge step in the right direction with SB-9. However, they need to go way further if they want to fight back against the housing shortage.
The story has been that Tesla is losing market share even as EV sales rise. Early adopters were happy to buy in to a truly unique experience with a funky-looking vehicle and a complete rethinking of interiors and controls. Meanwhile, Kia, Hyundai, VW are producing EVs that just kinda look and drive like normal cars and the bulk of market prefer that. And that's indirectly causing backlash on Hertz because the drop in prices is what killed the financially viability of their deal. This is less about EVs being a bust and more that they put all their eggs in one basket and forgot to keep them warm.
HTML emails have to inline CSS already due to Outlook & Gmail using decades-outdated rendering engines (outlook literally uses the 2006-era MS Word html engine).

Completing a full-sync replication is my first priority (I have currently implemented a WAL tailing from primary -> replica) but tailing from a snapshot is the ideal solution IMO here.

I was born in that time period. I would agree that in general people my age seem to be in a lot of trouble (I don't know about worst though, Gen-Z seems to be struggling a lot right now, and for them there's plenty of time for more fun economic struggles to happen).

I'm also not where I should be financially despite the lucrative field, compared to others in my field, due to several setbacks (and also in part because I never had a Silicon Valley job).

But thankfully I did choose the fairly lucrative field of software engineering, so even though I'm behind most other software engineers (including those younger than me), I'm still better off than most people around my age.

I also lucked out and finally bought my first house in 2018 before the big run up in prices. I had to get lucky on cryptocurrency to help afford the downpayment though (bought ~$300 worth of Ethereum at ~$20 and sold it at $1300 just before it crashed hard).
Yes, scale matters but the crappiest camera (not even going as "far" as a couple of hundred dollars for a few cheap cameras, a Pi, a memory card, a Google Coral, and Frigate) is better at surveillance than a regular human. Saving some simple event snapshots is orders of magnitude more reliable than someone's hazy memory. Even the simplest surveillance system is nothing like a grandma looking out the peephole and more like guards taking shifts to patrol.

Your internal surveillance system is fully within your control and mostly surveils you so that's good and a different world from cloud based external surveillance. But such a system still "surveils" more than a human could when it comes to other family members or guests just by its mere existence. Things that would go unnoticed, or easily forgotten don't have to anymore. That's a danger in itself because it cerates the social acceptability of permanent surveillance. Your kids don't get to break that vase and quickly hide the evidence because your system saved a snapshot. When that becomes normal for a person, being watched by every neighbor's Ring is a tiny extra step.

Disclosure, I run a setup similar to yours based on Frigate while taking great care to not intrude on anyone else's privacy because local laws and people don't take kindly to that. I am feeling that I'm invading my family's privacy though, which is why it tends to be on only when nobody else is at home.
My petty revenge against amazon mistreating my partner when they worked there is to aggressively pursue onsite interviews with them. I refuse to do initial phone screens - a tactic which often works to go directly to onsite since amazon is clueless and desperate.

I don't study for their stupid whiteboards and I don't study their stupid leadership principals. I on purpose refuse to use them during behavioral interviews (also refuse use the STAR method). I've had at least 5 full onsites like this. By my calculations, the wasted time and effort from amazon on myself was worth at least 100K given the number of highly paid engineers/managers who wasted their time interviewing me.

I think their point was that it was the first card of its kind outside of American Express. Back in 2016 there wasn't anything else really like it other than Amex's high tier cards. It also had a really generous sign up bonus when they first released it, 100,000 points if you spent a certain amount on the card in the first few months. Since then other issuers have been playing catch-up so the CSR stands out less.

kustomize is the less yolo version of helm: https://kubectl.docs.kubernetes.io/guides/introduction/kusto...

Teslas do not "disable themselves"; it's done by Tesla HQ, using criteria they do not disclose, but it seems to be just a matter of whether the crash happens to come to their attention.

Rich Rebuilds has covered this extensively. Sometimes he comes across a heavily damaged Tesla, still on their network that hasn't been disabled. Other times he comes across one with minor damage that has been disabled. I believe one of his rebuilds, he took some of the guts from a heavily damaged car that wasn't deactivated to transplant into the guts of a car that had easily repaired damage that had been.

You mean her political jiu jitsu of making council homes available for sale?

Yes it created a new owner class that was enamoured with her, but the end consequence of it is probably the housing crisis/asset bubble that the UK has been living with for 15 years or so.

Buying a council home did make a lot of new owners rich, but it's likely it harmed the long term prospects for the whole country. That was a lot of Thatcher. Deindustrialization annihilated the working middle class. In Germany industry was never destroyed for the sake of the service sector.

Gravity seems much more natural to me than heat; eg pumping water up a dam and releasing it again when you need the energy.

It strikes me that heat has the problem that it always loses energy in its “stable state” because the surrounding environment absorbs the heat, and gravity doesn’t have this problem.
Right, but why rely on LNG when Nuclear sources could provide so much more energy and geo-political stability, and promising investment in other avenues (eg Thorium based) could make it even moreso?
