20 hours over the course of how many days? Don't assume everyone has a charger at home.

Considering that in many places there are not superchargers nearby, having additional capacity/range is a major benefit.
I don't really understand your point... that the problem is non-local people making money on housing?

Even if it was only local people making money on housing this would be a net negative to local residents. Housing that exists is placed on the "global" market rather than the local one. Unavailable to anyone but tourists.
We simply disagree that public transport (or society in general) has to accept everyone regardless of how badly they behave.

It has nothing to do with "sectors of society".

If you want me on the bus, kick off the dickheads. Making driving worse will not get me on the bus however much you attempt to manipulate me emotionally.

Celebrity tea is when Elon gets into yet another altercation with someone on Twitter and nothing really changes about his professional reputation or his ability to keep running multiple companies. In fact, like a lot of celebrity gossip, these situations seem to be advantageous for Elon as he tends to go out of his way to court the situations and they keep his name and the names of his companies in the media.

What I’ve been seeing seems more like an attempted character assassination of an accomplished business leader who has done a great deal for society on many occasions. Sam was literally fired from the organization he co-founded — before being re-instated, because apparently the action wasn’t tenable, and yet we keep seeing attacks against his character as if someone still wants him gone, or at least wants his influence and credibility reduced going forward.

Advertising is not the problem. The current ad system is to blame. A different ad model is needed. One that is built using privacy, choice and rewards. User data and activity is not collected. Users have the choice to engage or ignore. And, if they choose to engage, they are compensated. Money flows directly from the seller to the buyer. We built this solution and call it Sellff Offers. It’s an alternative model that works the opposite of AdTech. Although just launched, we think Sellff Offers is the future of digital advertising. https://sellff.com/offers

While that sounds interesting on paper, what sort of problem is this solving, exactly?

Even during my childless-with-gas-car days, the most we'd drive without stopping was maybe 3 hours. I would think even professional truckers would stop once every few hours for bathroom breaks and such.

Maybe it helps people that don't live near a charger, so they'd have to charge less often?

But even then, charging a battery up to 1,300 miles would take FOREVER even on the fastest chargers.
Yes, but most of the cost of staying home is

1) rent/mortgage

2) food

And you still have to pay both of those if you're on vacation. Unless you're suggesting that people pack up everything they own, move out of their house, and go on vacation for a month?
> especially Google

Yup... Firefox, Kagi, & Protonmail get me away from the worst of it but YouTube doesn't really have a good competitor and other people using things like Google Forms (whatever the surveys are called) sometimes ends up forcing me to log into a Google account or have certain features locked out.
This combined with the news that Tesla is shrinking its supercharger team is a tremendous competitive advantage. Maybe US automakers will need a 200% tariff on Chinese EVs to compete.

That is the exact reason Discord isn't sufficient. I've had to support enough projects as a maintainer to know that you will always get hammered with the stupidest questions and the same questions all the time. The less you have to repeat yourself the better, and Discord, or any chat application, ensures you have to repeat yourself as much as possible. There's virtually no way to retroactively follow the stream-of-consciousness that is a chat-style discussion with no single topic instead of the post-style single-topic threaded discussion.

I have seen exactly 1 project ever have a solution to this, and ironically it was actually on Discord. Of all the many many chat applications out there, Discord seems to have the most flexible admin control of retroactive chat organisation, and 1 huge development community I'm in has actually proactively created threads when a reoccurring topic comes up again and then moved them to a common FAQ channel.

Unfortunately the hype for some locations is so strong that I can't imagine it being at all interesting. I don't want to bitch about tourists while being a tourist, but it's definitely the case of it's better to zig when everyone zags. I also hope that with time we move away from going places so that you can take a picture and say I was there, which let's face it is what a lot of people do. In a way it's getting worse - I spent a day with some friends visiting Berlin and they had a big list of things they want to do. We wanted to eat, but they wanted to eat the best burger in town (according to TripAdvisor or whatever), that was half an hour away. I managed to convince them to eat at a small local place - it was fine!

It's only going to get worse with AI.

How is it useless? When the main complaints about ev driving is the mile range? Nobody is saying you have to drive 20hours continuously. It’s for when chargers aren’t available
>Should developer experience ever weigh higher than user experience?

Developer experience is user experience. However, in a normative sense, I operate such that Developer suffering is preferable to user suffering to get any arbitrary task done.
Hear me out, I know this might sound crazy, but, how about letting users to customize menus to their own liking and workflow. Link UI customization to profiles and you will have many happy users. In example, I would remove most development related options (hey there, "Inspect Accessibility Properties") from my "leisure" profile, but would move those to more accessible places in my "work" profile.
It's worth noting that for some reason there's a deadline for flashing the generic Bluetooth firmware onto a Stadia controller though, you have to get it done before the end of this year if you have one gathering dust.

I've seen this shared a few times... and I'm not sure I get why.

I think driving range is an important metric for fully-electric vehicles since recharging isn't easy everywhere in the country.

Otherwise I think MPG is the right metric.

Not sure why driving range of a HYBRID would be a relevant metric, that would be a factor of a lot of things, like gas tank size, which doesn't pertain to efficiency/environmentalism.

How is securely connecting to a device that isn’t, itself, connected to the cloud, fetching a webpage from it, and rendering it out of scope for a web browser? Certainly URLs like http://192.168.1.1 have been in scope for decades — why can’t a web browser figure out how to support that use case well?
You can drive 20 hours over multiple days. For example, you could charge a commuter car once a week.
> I find the distinction between AAA games and indie games irrelevant.

I view the difference as being like the difference between movies made by major studios and movies made by indie studios.

The AAA games are aimed at a broad demographic, and that determines what sort of gameplay they present. Indie games address smaller demographics and so are willing to be more experimental and creative.

I don't think one is better or worse than the other, but I do think that there is enough of a difference between the two that knowing what sort of studio made it gives you an idea of what to expect.

Sounds like the entire problem is Airbnb. Which is a shave because I personally prefer Airbnb.

The cleanest solution I’ve seen is cities enacting a local rule that the shortest duration rental is 30d. Tourists go back to hotels, locals can afford to live, landlords make slightly less money.

It is unfortunate that all this innovation is happening in China, and subject to all sorts of protective tariffs to protect the absurdly dumb and backwards thinking US automotive industry. If they can't adapt to the modern world and what customers want, they should be allowed to go bankrupt. But no, we have to keep subsidizing and protecting the ability to make yet more gargantuan SUVs.
First of all, thank you, this is exactly the type of response I was looking for!

I think all your points are very valid, and I maybe should have made it more clear that I am not trying to dwell on this and more looking for honest feedback.

I would defend myself and say that I am quite a pleasant person all around, so I doubt it was that, and the only feedback I was given, was that all the interviewers had really enjoyed their chats with me and hoped that I applied in the future. I had no adverserial interactions with any in the team and I ended every interview saying that if I didn't make it to the next one I fully understood and that I was happy to have gotten this far.

I would also say that the person I was calling is headlands head recruiter and when on the phone she repeatedly said that she would ask the team and forward the feedback to me. I fully understand the game theory of not giving any feedback, both to leave the door open and to avoid spending more energy on a candidate you have discarded, but it's the two faced way of repeatedly saying it over the phone and then immediately turning around over text.

This is overall a positive message, this means that I must have made some sort of technical mistake and that I can correct for this next time. In my eyes that is the version of reality I am hoping for.

Once again, thank you so much for the honest and realistic feedback!

Short term rentals have really made the housing crisis worse. I have boycotted them entirely, but it's a drop in the ocean.
You say you don't travel, but have you travelled before? Have you attempted to answer your own question experientially, rather than rely on rhetoric?

Because you could make the same arguments for basically any activity: would you reduce playing a sport or learning a craft as mere marketing by their respective industries, and make judgements on them based on philosophy, rather than just try out playing the sport or doing the craft for a while to see for yourself what it's like? Philosophy only goes so far, it's practice that allows you to become embodied in the activity and gain insight.

Indeed. It is for sure possible to have an inefficient and non-resilient system. But I think the general point that efficiency tends to trade off against resilience is an important one which too few people understand. (one specific example from queuing theory which I wish more people understood was the tradeoff between resource utilization and latency. If you want something or someone to be busy almost all of the time, there must be a long queue which increases the latency of access, in the limit getting to 100% utilization the expected queue length grows without bound).
For seeing rain it's mostly that they are offset back from the windshield more. People over 50 barely have variable focus vision and it isn't really important in driving.
All this complexity, impressive, but still feels misguided. Nearly ten years ago Sun/Oracle put out the SPARC T7 that had 256 threads on a chip (October 26, 2015). x86 just managed that with the AMD Epyc 9754 (Jun 13, 2023).

How did they do that at 20 nm instead of 5nm ? Simpler cores.

Trying to improve single-threaded performance is really just adding epicycles and we need to just move onto more cores. Most of the time your CPU is just waiting, otherwise there wouldn't be all this focus on boost frequencies.

Slow it down it's reliably fed, get rid of the power throttling, because then it's not needed. Less surface area for bugs or attacks. An army of ants is a powerful thing.
Consider that there are still regions where rapid EV chargers are not ubiquitous, this solves the problems of range anxiety and trip length.

For a weeklong trip to a location where there are no chargers, you can have the confidence of making it there, tooling around for the week, and making it back to a place with a charger. You might not need this in your region, but I am familiar with regions in the US where this would come in handy.

Not really.

In a perfect world where we had an unlimited supply of batteries, charging infrastructure, and all-renewable electricity, BEVs would be best.

But we don't live in that world. Plugin hybrids with smaller batteries are likely the best path until we can scale the battery and charging infrastructure.
Just put them on a train during work hours! We have really good coverage here but there's congestion and frequent random dropouts, and a lot of apps just don't plan for that at all.
First, I went and looked at my house... It's got a lot of tall oak trees near by and in a park across the street.

It shows it almost completely in daylight save for building shadows, which is really wrong even right now as most of the house is shaded by trees.

Then I see an upgrade button... and it wants me to pay. Yet I can't even validate the data passes a sniff test. Their free tier very much doesn't.
I had the same thought. Backing up a boat is already difficult enough; I would require mechanisms for making alignment easier else I’d have fits. Since parallax will affect the observed alignment, it doesn’t have to be prefect. Perhaps a few strategic markings on the driveway (behind the fence) and/or cameras on the trailer would be sufficient.
js developers had this idea of "1 function = 1 library" for a really long time, and "NEVER REIMPLEMENT ANYTHING". So they will go and import a library instead of writing a 5 line function, because that's somehow more maintainable in their mind.

Then of course every library is allowed to pin its own dependencies. So you can have 15 different versions of the same thing, so they can change API at will.

I poked around some electron applications.

I've found .h files from openssl, executables for other operating systems, megabytes of large image files that were for some example webpage, in the documentation of one project. They literally have no idea what's in there at all.
If I were Rawlinson and wanted to be original and unpredictable, I'd go against the groupthink and -praise- Elon Musk.

I'd praise Musk for defending free speech. I'd praise Musk for fighting threats to America such as political lawfare, union over-reach, and open borders.

A defence of Musk would get headlines from the leftwing-dominated media establishment. Mainstream media would be indignant, but Rawlinson's principled stance would resonate with the silent majority and make Lucid stand out from the crowd.

Greedy locals and corpos are taking advantage of zero regulation, but tourists are to blame, of course.
Very misleading statement.

First, NY Post is kind of a tabloid. You gotta dig deeper. Here's the actual study:
https://uk-air.defra.gov.uk/assets/documents/reports/cat09/1...

I recommend reading it. It's actually pretty well done.

Secondly, the report itself and common sense dictate that regenerative braking on EVs (or hybrids) greatly decrease brake usage, therefore brake dust. Some EVs have "one-pedal" modes where you don't use the brakes at all in normal usage.

Thirdly, tires is a different calculation. This looks like a fairly unbiased source (https://www.emissionsanalytics.com/news/2020/1/28/tyres-not-..., https://www.nokiantyres.com/company/news-article/there-is-a-...).

Looks like tire issue is a toss up, and it depends on what the type of tire and how you drive. The much higher torque on an EV and a heavy foot will wear down the tires a lot more, but that has more to do with driver behavior than EVs.

Also, this whole issue is kind of a red herring because tractor trailers and heavy pickups and SUVs are a much, much larger source of brake and tire dust, and overall particulate pollution.
In my experience, driving ranges of electric cars are heavily cherry picked with the best possible conditions and even then they are very generous. We'll see if someone independent can see what the driving range really ends up being
The article has mostly-ample disclaimers. Though I didn't see mention of the M1A1 being a mid-1980's design. And the ones sent to Ukraine were probably stripped of several valuable-but-sensitive subsystems.

International travel has gotten a lot more expensive over the past few years. I'm literally paying double for the same flight and hotel compared to 5-6 years ago.
It is a ridiculous name, but I think it's intriguing without being overpromising and that's why they went with it.
Yes, and IMO this needs to be regulated everywhere (even in non touristic places). Prevent companies from buying residential type of estate. And only allow individuals to buy one property if non-citizen or two (main and secondary) if a citizen.
Stopping at a gas station or charger is just pure overhead. It is never something I want to do, it is just something that I have to do to keep the car running.

Maximizing the interval between these refueling stops, where I have to pay to keep my car running, is a net win to me.

My bet is all of the ones that are marketable now will also be marketable in the next 5-10 years. There will probably be additional newcomers as well, but experience has taught me that any predictions of what those will be aren't that useful.

The thing to focus on is the fundamentals. If you have those down, then picking up new skills as needed isn't a big problem.

> but for a mere library fee you can probably expand your world view even more than through consumerist behaviour.

My view is that learning a new concept is a lot like traveling. To me it feels the same. I like to do both a lot.

There is an exception with traveling that is hard to find in books (directly, indirectly it is also available in books). One can form social relationships with people from another country. In many cases, the relationship that forms is with another tourist. It seems to be one of the few times that people are genuinely open to meet other people. There are other ways to go about this, but this way of truly meeting potential new international friends is hard to beat. Though, another way of doing it is university.

I think traveling has little that is unique, but so does everything else. There are always other ways that one can go about to meeting their needs. It just so happens that traveling is a pretty good and convenient way to do it with, but by far not the only way.
