Modern wealth is potentially a double-edged sword.

There's enough of it that "hikikomori" is a viable strategy to stay alive.

Yet, "modern wealth" is also the reason many things previous generations took for granted such as housing are effectively unreachable for many people nowadays, plus inflation/cost of living.

This makes "hikikomori" the rational strategy for some people. Enough money to scrape by and live online, but not enough to actually climb out of the hole.

EPA range is tested on a dynamometer in a lab and not outside! (0)

It’s data from their fleet in their area of usage.
They want to nitpick the EPA range as not being as relevant to them or well anyone. EPA range versus average personal car usage is a different topic.

It’s good to have this relevant ‘not my car’ driving style range available for company fleets to take into consideration. My company tracks many vehicle statistics and is particularly interested in idling hours as its rough on vehicles but necessary for the job.

Also, in the article they list 73% for model 3 performance. 230/315 miles range.

There is a list of things that work vehicles are used as that don’t conform to the EPA testing standards. Each vehicle could be fully loaded with passengers and equipment driving to remote mountain equipment sites in any conditions with the worst rolling resistance wheel/tire combination.

Some take the electric vehicle or well any of their vehicles much too personally.

Depends on the operator, K.Geophysics operated for 25+ years with 15+ airframes (mostly fixed wing, some heli's) with zero deaths or crashes.

Another company bought them out and had three major crashes and five deaths with the next two years.

You can put that down to quality of maintainance and route planning.

One crash due to engine failure on takeoff and climbing, a second due to tangling with power lines that were not on the flight plan, the third I'm unsure but IIRC it was maintainance again.

By cause these were crashes caused by poor support surrounding the work rather than intrinsic risk of low flying .. of which only the power line tangle had an element of, which wouldn't have happened had the support team down their homework.

US is sending all sorts of gear, not just dusty stuff from the back of the shelf. Sure, there would be reapers, but also modern stuff from switchblade drones (in use since 2010) to Phoenix Ghost (designed a couple of years ago).

one way this war has been calamitous for Russia as it has shown NATO how unprepared they are for Russian electronic countermeasures. Let’s see if NATO can learn and adapt in time.

> This method also helped with inventory control. For example, if the total sales for the day ended in .56, it meant 44 (or 144) items were sold, no matter how many customers bought them.

That seems like bollocks, who cares about a technique for tracking total number of any items sold? That isn't helpful for inventory management at all? And even if you had only a single product, or you totalled sales separately for some reason (and inexplicably by sale price rather than just tallying sales), you could then just divide by the price, you don't need to coerce the total into being a tally mod 100.

Let's say you have some centralized monitoring of various host metrics. The ingestion process needs some amount of privileged access. But you don't want to give it full root. Meanwhile, your actual service probably needs no privileged access, save for some secrets which should also be inaccessible for the monitoring agent process. You may want to run both of these as containers.

I guess you may be using SELinux but even so, users and groups are natural parts of expressing and enforcing such constraints.

I think LLMs miss a true feedback loop required for consciousness because their knowledge is fixed. Funny enough embodiment as a robot is one forcing function for a feedback loop and it’s not so crazy to think that the combination of the above is more likely to result in machine consciousness than LLM alone.
If it works as I understood, in this setup I can see an advantage at an architectural level: in Podman containers images are stored on a per-user basis, while in this setup they would be shared between users, thus using much less disk space (if using the same base images). Besides this, I actually have the same question.

It's a great idea, but what if it requires (as it is) a level of motivation that cannot be reached without money?

The System is refined, it has withstood many challenges, and as it adapts to each one it becomes stronger. Challenges powered by little more than good intentions are no threat.

I guess it depends on whether the primary contaminant you're worried about is dirt from outside (in which case you want to wash in the evening to keep your bed clean as you describe) or sweat (in which case you want to wash in the morning to avoid smelling sweaty while interacting with people).

For me, the latter is much more a concern - I sweat overnight and so want to be clean in time to start interacting with people. If I do physical activity, or it's a hot summer day, I might even shower in the morning and evening.
If someone sells me a device with some firmware on it, they presumably had acquired a transferable license for that software. They then transferred it to me on sale. When I bought a used pickup truck, I did not need Ford to sell me a new license for the engine control unit.

If I buy a piece of hardware that has absolutely zero software on it, then I have to go get a license from someone else to use hardware that I "own". Even though in the case of a WiFi card that piece of hardware is purpose built and has exactly one single function.
This needs a third-party evaluation. Nobody gets that much power from rooftop wind with small devices. Usually you need at least 16 square meters of intake area to get 5KW.

> Actually, the .99 price-point started as a clever way to prevent theft, manage inventory, and keep track of sales. The idea was that pricing something at $1.00 might tempt a cashier to pocket the bill, but pricing it at $0.99 meant they’d have to open the register to give change, reducing the risk. Back then, most registers didn’t print receipts.

Wouldn't the extra labor required offset any potential savings? (More time per transaction means you need to hire more cashiers to keep checkout line length down.)
Direct Phone to Phone Communication Using the Cellular Antennas
For months I wasn't able to remove this idea from my head. Why can't two cellphones communicate using their cellular antennas. You may wonder why I got this idea but stay with me. What I have in mind is a kind of mesh and peer to peer concept. Wouldn't it be way better than the current WiFi or Bluetooth solutions. Because it will be on a larger scale because the cellular antennas can communicate for very long distances. They are stronger, in terms of bandwidth and throughput. And because no intermediate cell tower or station may be involved it will be more free. I can imagine a lot of potential applications of this idea but when I searched for such a thing if it exists, it does not. I am not an expert in this field of networks, antennas, etc. but I know that while this idea is technically feasible, it is not necessarily easy. It requires a lot of modifications of hardware and software .Plus protocol development for communication between the phones. I headed to HN for you guys if you know anything that could help, I would love to see this idea implemented. Otherwise any feedback or ideas is gold to me. Thanks!

You are making a false equivalence.

You do not need pills to lose weight.

Pills used to lose weight do not address root causes. At all.

Pills used to lose weight do not address the damage caused by everything that got someone to become obese.

The root cause are processed industrialized foods that poison everyone over time. The damage done by these foods to the body permeates the entire body, from the gut to the brain. Pills do not address this at all. Therefore, bad behaviors continue, damage continues to be caused and the person gets sicker and sicker while using a fake solution for weight loss.

Period.

If you want to argue against the claim that pills are not needed, you have to argue against all known human and animal biology, chemistry and physics. Get a grip.

Yes, their generation numbers are not definitively defined in TFA, not even as a concrete typical range.
Japan is incredibly mountainous, of course the transport links are near the coasts because that's the flat part where people actually live. There are sea walls etc built to guard coastal towns, but the size of the tsunami overwhelmed them and at that point you're screwed.

And yes, many buildings are out of code, because Japanese earthquake standards are continually strengthened and virtually anything built more than 20 years ago will not meet the newest set. This is also a big reason why the Japanese prefer to buy new houses.

Of course the disaster could have been handled better, and eg the design of the Fukushima nuclear reactors was particularly bad, but (IMHO) they still did a better job this time than with the Kobe earthquake, where the Yakuza had to step in to help because the government was caught flat-footed by a disaster happening in the "wrong" place.
Very cool.

I happen to be with Sagan on this one, although these ideas certainly are not mutually exclusive; in fact they are complimentary.

Consciousness is an innate emergent phenomenon that happens when you combine basic memory/context, recall, the collective evolutionary unconscious, and so many magnitudes of neurons.

In fact, he even gives dogs (and to some degree, cats) the exactly same specific pedigree of obviously being self-aware/conscious, yet commanding the traits that align with the most basic tenants of "religion": your dog thinks you are a fucking god.
