Deno 2 was a major release entirely about shoring up Node compatibility. That's arguably a big reason for why Bun seems to have a higher velocity right now of the trio. Deno put in a ton of engineering into Node/npm compatibility, it shows, and right now I would recommend trying Deno as having suprisingly few compatibility/ecosystem issues remaining.

(Deno has not stayed entirely still, other new features were added outside of that compatibility effort, but Bun doesn't have Node compatibility as much as a goal today and so gets the fast mover award.)

I started using Deno in hobby projects because I like the out-of-the-box defaults a lot better than Node (deno.json is a lot simpler than a lot of the cruft that package.json has acquired, but also includes more things in one place like out of the box eslint support [deno lint] and prettier-equivalent [deno fmt]). Also, Deno Deploy has a generous free tier and that's a healthy incentive for hobby projects that want a modest database (Deno KV) and basic task processing queues.
Wrong. Congress granted the Presidency an almost limitless power to levy tariffs in the early 1900s. It has no such power to change the tax laws.

My guess is he was getting most of his information on it from people on twitter/x who were mostly right wing, anti islam, anti woke and non brits. A lot of them seem to tweet to own the libs etc. rather than worrying too much about the factual accuracy.

Some of their reasoning seems to be - bad/woke stuff happens in the UK - who's the leftie to blame - ah Starmer's running the left party - tweet it's all Starmer's fault, he should go. But the government in charge from 2010 to 2024 when most of that happened was Cameron and the Tories. Starmer is actually quite middle of the road, small c conservative and the first person to prosecute and imprison the bad guys in the grooming thing. It's all a bit mindless / ill informed.

I hope rearranging the US government is a bit better thought out! At least the people involved seem to be American and so presumably have some basic knowledge of the American government.
IIRC they used NetFlow data to find the only Tor user. So as long as your VPN doesn't use a different exit than entry IP it's as easy to find you as the Tor user.
> something as personal as a car

This is such a weird-but-probably-true take. I know it happens, but it's such a shame. Most people can't even name the CEO of their carmaker, much less that person's political positions. Most people just want to get to work and the store, and have very little other choice than some kind of car. Self expression through highly regulated corporations' focus groups: how sad.

> if you're planning on taking any long trips and you want to do it in an EV, I don't see any alternative to Tesla.

I've taken several long trips in a non-Tesla EV in the United States over the last few years. Never had a problem. Almost every interaction with a public DCFC has been plug and go. Only recently got a NACS->CCS adapter, still haven't needed to use it in about a year since I got it.
I think you’re correct. Ideology rarely affects brand penetration this much.

Whenever I talk to people in Europe , they always talk about the other options. Tesla is just not competitive there as a brand.

I do hope that one outcome of this stupid tariff war here is that Canada drops the tariffs on Chinese EVs. They exist to protect US brands but we’re losing out on so many great options.
> Would be interesting to know how H2 did

We'll see in a couple months, but probably not well, because EU EV sales shrank overall in 2024 [0]

> That link talks about H1 2024 and says this about BYD:

Yea, but primarily this - "BYD is now Europe’s 16th best-selling BEV brand".

It's total sales are still dwarfed by existing giants in the EU market, as the H1 24 sales data has shown. The brands it outsold are those that didn't really target EU BEV sales (eg. Ford, Renault) or are conservative in their EV approach (eg. Nissan, Toyota)

The only Chinese firm that has kind of cracked the European market is Geely, and that's because they were able to leverage Volvo to sell a rebadged Geely as the XC30.

I bought a Tesla in 2019 - back when it was the Eco conscious car nerd choice, and before he started skewing right.

I liked it so much I got solar for my house from Tesla, along with multiple powerwalls.

Frankly, the car has been an embarrassment to take out into the world for the last three or four years.

With him outing himself as an outright nazi, yesterday I spent fifteen minutes with a heat gun, dental floss, and Goo Gone debadging my car.

I’m profoundly not ok with giving the impression that I am ok with Musk’s abhorrent behavior.
We have heard this before when 100k and 200k were first being normalized by Anthropic way back when and I tend to be skeptical in general when it comes to such predictions, but in this case, I have to agree.

Having used the previews for the last few weeks with different tasks and personally designed challenges, what I found is that these models are not only capable of processing larger context windows on paper, but are also far better at actually handling long, dense, complex documents in full. Referencing back to something upon specific request, doing extensive rewrites in full whilst handling previous context, etc. These models also have handled my private needle in haystack-type challenges without issues as of yet, though those have been limited to roughly 200k in fairness. Neither Anthropics, OpenAIs, Deepseeks or previous Google models handled even 75k+ in any comparable manner.

Cost will of course remain a factor and will keep RAG a viable choice for a while, but for the first time I am tempted to agree that someone has delivered a solution which showcases that a larger context window can in many cases work reliably and far more seemlessly.

Is also the first time a Google model actually surprised me (positively), neither Bard, nor AI answers or any previous Gemini model had any appeal to me, even when testing specificially for what other claimed to be strenghts (such as Gemini 1.5s alleged Flutter expertise which got beaten by both OpenAI and Anthropics equivalent at the time).
TSLA is a meme stock.
Nice! Will be trying this over the next few days
I live in the US and I bought a Tesla in early 2020, it's easily the worst purchase I've ever made.

The build quality is crap, the interior cheap feeling, and yes I got FSD and that is the worst part. FSD is only adequate in bumper to bumper traffic.

Any other scenario it's not good enough to drive itself without you babysitting it. So if you have to babysit it, what's the point? It's actually worse to babysit it than just to drive normally, because you get frustrated with FSD's shortcomings (wide turns, inability to merge, sudden freak outs when the painted road lines are obscured).
If a reviewer is regularly rejecting PRs because the variable names have incorrect capitalization then that's a problem with the author, not the reviewer. That is the incredibly basic shit you decide on at the start of a codebase and then follow regardless of your personal thoughts on what scheme is preferable.

If/else vs ternaries is something where consistency is a lot less important, but if you know that a team member has a strong preference for one over the other and you think it's unimportant then you should just write it how they prefer to begin with. Fight over things you think are important, not things that you think don't matter.
the press brought this up! Dont mistake the no true scotsman fallacy here.

It was openly discussed that Biden was not looking sharp (even though Trump couldn't hold a debate with a mirror).

Biden Stepped down, mid cycle - this was something unthinkable to election strategists and pundits.

It remains one of the most amazing things I've seen, because I understand what it takes to do that, and what many others did in a similar position.

If you want to talk about how perceptions are made - consider that less is made of Biden's actions here, and more is made of the fact that he ran at all.

Did you know that the Russia case resulted in 8 guilty please and 1 conviction? Trump didn't get touched because they knew of the Russian interference, but didnt expect it to harm them.

A sitting president cant be indicted on federal crimes, so the obstruction of justice case was dropped.

This is unfortunate, since it gives ammunition to everyone, at which point it just becomes a team sport.

However, having seen authoritarian states, this is 100% from that play book. And yes, it feels insane and high strung to write that, but what can one do?

It looks like a wolf, it bites like a wolf, but maybe its just a massive dog.

The biggest benefit to this is that it makes one of the slowest parts of virtual DOM diffing (longest common subsequence) no longer required. After this becomes supported in the mainstream, not even signal-based frameworks will have to include VDOM algorithms. I know this because I remember pushing for this to be supported a few years ago — a nice reminder that the standards are evolving and that nothing stops you from being a small part of the effort.

Next up — DOM parts and standardized signals, unified.
That is such a wonderful quote from you asking if you can name examples of him signalling Nazism, apart from the Nazi salute he gave three times to the entire crowd of the inauguration and on national tv.
I can't speak for every single one of them but I can say that some of them probably did it by choice and was prepared to handle the friction in the beginning until they get used to it. I know lots of people who switched from Windows to Mac where power users / had good computer habit.

However, I don't think some of the older people are willing to go through all that. I wish to see an easier option for people who wants a smoother transition from Win10 to something else, especially now since Win10 is being discontinued october this year.
Maybe, but I do know that in my part of the US, I'd regular see a dozen or so Teslas on the road during my commute. Over the last few weeks, though, I've spotted a total of two. There appear to be a lot of people who have stopped driving them so much.

Wherever your locale buys and sells used cars. The price of used Teslas has been dropping at a ~24% annualised rate over the last 30 to 90 days [1].

Generally, I don't think there's much of a difference once you've got Steam installed.

I've had some crashes of Steam itself in the past and I don't know if those were somehow distro-specific.

I don't think I've run into any issues with games themselves on Steam that would have turned out to be distro-specific. Installing and running games on Steam is the same point and click exercise. Steam uses its own set of runtime library binaries for games anyway, so that probably also unifies things for games regardless of the distro.

Discord worked fine when I used it. I wasn't a heavy user though.

Someone said not to use Fedora if you have an Nvidia GPU and I have no experience with that. Also, I don't know about controllers, but I doubt those come with proprietary Linux drivers so I wouldn't assume there'd be much difference between distros.
Teslas are good cars, but I can understand not wanting to drive around in anything associated with the current CEO.

I think about data privacy too. Every automaker sells identifiable location data. I'd normally think of Tesla as being contrarian and possibly better on privacy, but they have a history of passing around photos/videos/audio from inside the cars(!).

I really wish that Apple hadn't killed their car effort. Even without self-driving, it could've been better in many other areas.
Same in norcal. Vital Farms has been constant except Safeway owned grocery stores used to have them on regular sales. Now they're always full price.

there's actually a great "hidden" way to disable the youtube homepage and shorts across platforms - turn off youtube's watch history feature (myactivity.google.com > youtube history)

I've found that over time this chokes the recommendation system - makes it boring and it now finally refuses to show me any video recommendations on my youtube homepage - just a message asking me to turn history on. of course, you lose your watch history, but I just bookmark the videos I like anyway.

Videos related to the one you're watching may appear, but imo these tend to be based on your subscriptions / more focused / less rabbit-holey (and you can disable those with extensions and such as well).
1000 years ago we were much less resilience, and that despite farmers then optimizing for that and not profit. (read acoup.org for long discussions on what farming was really like over different times in history)

This is my understanding from a former poultry farmer, but of course he had a reason to blame the other types of chicken raising for bird flu issues. I think both can be true, and you're in effect gambling different ways with each strategy.
For anyone that parsing PDF's this is a game changer in term of price per dollar - I wrote a blog about it [1]. I think a lot of people were nervous about pricing since they released the beta, and although it's slightly more expensive than 1.5 Flash, this is still incredibly cost-effective. Looking forward to also benchmarking the lite version.

It just shows how uninformed you are! BYD Seal is 2000kg car, we do not want that! Europeans want EVs that are maybe 600kg to do shopping and drive around town. 80kms on single charge and 50kmph are quite acceptable parameters.

If I can remove car battery, put it on a cart, and take it to my apartment on 10th floor via elevator, even better! I need to charge it over night!

If I could spare $50k on new car, I would buy ICE before they are banned!
I love how people think managing 1M people and 100 people are different. In both cases it's all delegation. You can't oversee more than 10 people in any realistic sense.
I’ll be selling our Tesla as soon as other brands have NACS. Specifically Rivian is what I’m looking for and have a preorder on an R2
I receive them too. They indeed come "From: <service@paypal.com>", but the dead giveaway is that the recipient is "To: fred smith <order_status10@jwa.onmicrosoft.com>". I'm NOT "fred smith" or any of the other random names they use. The emails arrive from the onmicroft.com servers, not the PayPal servers.

It looks like they create the fake account at onmicrosoft.com, then have paypal send an email to that account and then make onmicrosoft.com forward it to all their intended victims.
My guess is that this 'bug' was deliberate and set to judge reactions.

It'll be back.

DeepSeek: Beyond the Hype–A Game Changer
I've used windows for 30+ years, and I'm getting a Mac this year. I seriously considered Linux on a Thinkpad and even test-drove Debian on my older X1 Carbon. I tried, but too many things didn't quite work. I'd get stuck on the login screen for no apparent reason. VMware modules were a pain to build and sign. Something (might have been VMware modules) caused it to freeze. Hidpi support isn't ready. And nothing was really polished.

> In February 2000, they contacted Karl Fogel, the author of Open Source Development with CVS (Coriolis, 1999), and asked if he'd like to work on this new project. Coincidentally, at the time Karl was already discussing a design for a new version control system with his friend Jim Blandy. In 1995, the two had started Cyclic Software, a company providing CVS support contracts, and although they later sold the business, they still used CVS every day at their jobs

> he said to answer the question about how many sports you played in high school honestly, but that was one of the questions where some answers would give you more points than others.

That's exactly what is alleged: Snow told applicants which answers were worth the most points. This is what Snow himself claimed, too.

And the FAA's internal investigation did have witnesses say that they were instructed on how to respond to the Biographical Assessment:

> One witness said during the call, participants told they were looking at questions on the BA test but did not know what to enter on the test. According to this witness, [redacted] responded with information that should be entered on the BA test.

If the voicemails are recorded anywhere, that will put this question to rest.
Hell of a coincidence. When an influential think tank puts out a guidebook for what their party’s nominee should do after winning the presidency, and then that person puts a bunch of the people involved in his administration and starts carrying it out, I’m not inclined to think this is all by chance.
AI is lame, kids hate that stuff. Positioning yourself as some sort of "AI expert connoisseur" will only make you look lamer.

Well, if you know your local farmers and buy from them regularly, it doesn't look great if they jack their prices up unnecessarily. They also know that they're competing against the perception that local food is more expensive. In normal times, factory farms can always undercut their prices, so it would make sense for them to use the current situation as an opportunity to get more people to start buying local (due to the prices!) and hope that they will continue to buy local once the prices invert again (due to the quality).
One healthy way to consume Reddit that I recently learned about is creating a "custom feed" (see left margin of new UI).

You can just add subs that are of interest that lack the torrent of bad news and only ever visit that custom feed. It doesn't ever algorithmically add posts from subs you don't manually include, as far as I've seen.

Been using opensuse for both my personal laptop and a server for many years now.

Thanks! Good point.

I think there will always be some hallucinations until they're solved on a model level, but I'll also try to nudge AI now to be more precise with the headlines.
I would say 1 million views should roughly pay the interns salary for a month. Some of the movies accumulated around a million views within the first 10 days.
Behind the Bastards is a great podcast. I think they did a good job bringing this guy's viewpoints to the forefront here, and explaining the context.
I appreciate the sentiment but this is totally unrealistic. I've tried to use AI several times before to help me quickly build out some personal software side projects and it took me waaaaay longer every time. It would just confidently spit out code that looked ok at first glance but if you actually know what you are looking at you'd realize it wasn't correct at all. Or worse, if it was an area I didn't fully understand such as native mobile dev, I'd burn an hour or two before realizing the problem wasn't me.

Yes build personal software. But to act like someone can leverage AI to do all the donkey work without actually understanding it is just silly.

It's very easy to see where a lot of VC money is going: marketing.
Conventional producers have been working to contain things like this for year. They don't all succeed, but this isn't the first time eggs have got expensive because of a bird flu, and they have been paying attention to what works. They don't remodel all barns at once to fix the issues, but they have been remodeling barns over the years to prevent this issue.
Nothing looks bad to them, so it doesn't matter. Looking bad isn't a deterrent any more.
For better or worse, news flows through social media, so this approach basically amounts to ignoring all the bad stuff going on. If you read HN, chances are you can probably safely get through the next four years doing this. But as the saying goes, "first they came for the communists..."
Forgive me if, in the current political climate, I feel a very large amount of skepticism at an opening paragraph where an anonymous woman of color expresses that she's always had it easy in the tech industry because of "DEI".
That's not "forcing", it's choosing what you ship and especially (since RHEL is a paid product) for what software you're willing to spend money on customer support and feature requests.

Fedora has always had Docker and on RHEL you could install it with community support only.
