> Unsafe, depends.

I agree that you can be better equipped for driving 200+ km/h, but I do not agree that it is possible for such driving to be safe on a public road unless you are guaranteed to be alone (and with proper racing equipment).

The problem isn't you and your car, it's that you're zooming past other cars at speeds that make them practically stationary, and no amount of experience you may have make them any less likely to accidentally pull out, not noticing that a car had approached them at literally twice their speed.

Even if no one ever failed to check their mirrors on regular lane changes, someone doing 80 might be forced to swerve for emergency reasons, and if you're going 210 then it's like hitting a stationary object at 130 km/h.

Heck, even professional racing drivers have crash into each other all the time, and a check of your mirror isn't valid for very long if the speed difference is too high. Differential speeds are already not great when you mix 130 and 80 in the same direction, but mixing 200+ and 80 is impossible to do safely.

> Anyway, what I meant was that, while I haven't done any scientific testing, it seemed like the Tesla's range was impacted much more by high speed driving than ICEs I've driven despite being very low drag.

I wonder if the perceived difference isn't just a result of how much range you had to beign with, combined with the tesla maybe being easier to keep "in the green" near the rated range than an ICE car.

Taking the polo as example, if you always drove it very aggressively you might be happy thinking it went 650 km on a tank and assume that the fuel rating was just an unrealistic lie. But drive it a bit more carefully (while staying at the speed limit) and you'll get 1000+ km on a tank as advertised.

If you do the same exercise in a car that starts with a 500km range instead of 1000+, then being stuck with just 60% of the range from aggressive driving might be a lot more impactful.

(Also, always remember that drag coefficients is for a given area which can be quite misleading when comparing cars of different sizes like crossover SUVs.)

I'm building a new tool for end-to-end data validation and reconciliation in ELT pipelines, especially for teams replicating data from relational databases (Postgres, MySQL, SQL Server, Oracle) to data warehouses or data lakes.

Most existing solutions only validate at the destination (dbt tests, Great Expectations), rely on aggregate comparisons (row counts, checksums), or generate too much noise (alert fatigue from observability tools). My tool:

* Validates every row and column directly between source and destination
* Handles live source changes without false positives
* Eliminates noise by distinguishing in-flight changes from real discrepancies
* Detects even the smallest data mismatches without relying on thresholds
* Performs efficiently with an IO-bound, bandwidth-efficient algorithm

If you're dealing with data integrity issues in ELT workflows, I'd love to hear about your challenges!
My history teacher in high school said the official excuse to join the Allies was the sinking merchant boat done by a German submarine.

He also said there was no direct proof it was actually the Germans, and it may as well have been the US to force us to join on their side.

Which ultimately led me to find a pro-military website contesting this whole idea, and the author presented convincing arguments like, Brazil was sending resources to the US, so why the hell would they sink a ship that would bring resources to them?

Sadly, I cannot find the link. And it turns out the widely accepted theory is that Germans actually sunk the merchant boat, and it wasn't a covert US operation.
This is exactly what I understood from the article. Your explanation didn't add anything extra.
DeepL is leagues better than Google Translate, and I can tell because I've worked with a lot of translation to and from Finnish. They are not even comparable. Google Translate will completely garble any translation to or from Finnish. Kagi Translate also does a great job in Finnish translation.
I get it, the US is big, but I just can't understand still why the government itself doesn't invest heavily in fiber connections. Most of Europe did this since the early 2000s, and here I am, writing this from my home connection which is symmetric 10Gbps (frankly, I can't really measure it, because it's faster than my 2.5Gbps Ethernet card, so I just believe it) for less than $50/month. And it doesn't matter which country I am, because this is common in most countries.
It is not that difficult to scrape Steam data using SteamKit, right? I build a website around Steam data a couple of years ago, with a small scraper app which was hourly scraping new updates (using SteamKit) and putting it into my database.

The biggest advantage that SteamDB has, is that it has a ton of historical data. That is not retrievable from the Steam Network, so the only way to have gotten historical data is to start early.

My website is now defunct for a year, but I've kept the scraper running. I now have 7 years of historical data in my database.

Pieces like this remind me that even professors need to sell what they do, like saying "Humans cannot really understand them." in this case. Never have we ever had more simulation tools and compute power like we have today and we can't understand how these chips really work?

Honestly, I think the mode that will actually occur is that incumbent businesses never successfully adopt AI, but are just outcompeted by their AI-native competitors.
Well, if the Chinese can do it, probably the Americans can do it, too. Nice!
Or because they differentiate you from others. English is full of that; there's "cow" for the commoners (from Germanic) vs "beef" for the rich (from French). Or thee/thous for commoners vs you (from French 'vous') for the rich. I suppose the new purpose in those cases were to differentiate from the lower classes.
As someone who runs OpenStack clusters and uses public cloud providers, I think it's worth noting a few things:

- Outside of the Telco sector, OpenStack is basically dead.

- Even within Telco, everyone sees the writing on the wall of OS being dead and is looking to make the jump.

- OpenStack is a cluster of poorly-interoperating, poorly-documented products -- The customer experience is fucking terrible.

- DO, Hetzner, etc all offer a superior product.

- None of those products even come close to touching the features of the big three clouds or even Oracle.

If your needs could be well-served by DO, Hetzner, etc., then your needs could be well served by racks in a colo.

Past that scale, American cloud providers are really your only option if you want that level of automation.

(Or Chinese cloud providers, but largely assuming that's a non-option)

It's not a small feat. China would have to:

1: Take over Taiwan to get TSML under their control

2: Find a way to make a deal with ASML for the needed lithography machines

3: Somehow aquire the knowhow that Nvidia has

Taiwan would require a conflict with the US. ASML is a dutch company but seems to be somehow under US control. I have not yet figured out the exact setup there. And Nvidia is a US company.

sure, in order to deploy at my company you have to tag it and then wait. You can't do the next tag until that first tag's action is done. So I end up refreshing the github actions page over and over. Or I go do something else and then forget about it and now the deploy is delayed. And it's not just 1 more tag. It's a series of tags before the thing is finally deployed and live. This give me just 1 thing to run and then I can walk away and know that each step has been done as soon as possible with me the human not having to do anything more.

Other apps have teams that do the same things, with one-time purchases, like in my examples above.

As a SW dev I can empathize with your PoV, but from the perspective of an end consumer, I don't care about the externalities of the manufacturer of the product, I only care about value for my money.

When you need to buy a new t-shirt, do you go and buy the one from the manufacturer that feeds the most families or do you buy the best value one from the nearest Walmart/Target/GAP that fulfills your needs for the best value (most likely made in an Asian sweatshop)? That's how most consumers think, including you.

The costs, risks and dependencies of the manufacturer/vendor are irelevant to the end consumer, that's the cold harted calculated truth of how the free market capitalism works, and how it decides who lives and who dies.
Howto: A Humble Command-Line Assistant
My favorite was the ML learning how to optimally make the lowest-impact landing in a flight simulator— it discovered that it could wrap the impact float value if the impact was high enough so instead of figuring out the optimal landing, it started figuring out the optimal path to the highest-impact crashes.
When you find you're seeing a problem as easy, and that "they should just", then you probably either don't have enough detail, or haven't thought about an issue enough.

For example, what else should 'morals' compel Cloudflare to spend money on blocking? Should they preemptively drop accounts that link to any abortion information? Did anything happen at Tiananmen Square?

Let's set all that aside though and say "unauthorized streaming bad", and say that we all agree that that is the case. Say we also agree that it's Cloudflare that should be the enforcer of this. We then run in to the practical issues. Random numbers I found online say that Cloudflare streams around 100 petabytes of video every month. How do you propose that it filter that amount of video and identify the 'offending' streams? There's legitimate license holders that could be streaming through Cloudflare, cut them off and you're looking at a lot of lost business if not a lawsuit against you. There's clips being shown during a recap on someone's sports info stream that probably fit some 'moral fair use'. Both those rely on being able to distinguish between this current streamed game and a replay of a game for a year ago, even in cases where the streaming party has taken measures to make that difficult.

How much extra would you be willing to pay Cloudflare for their services so they could do this type of 'football stream blocking'? Are you okay paying the extra to Cloudflare when the end result is that there's no fewer streams available online?

I would say that this feels like a significant rupture in the relationship completely borne out of a very disrespectful position. Trying to brow-beat population into submission typically doesn't really work that well for long-term relationships.

Even if most Canadians do recognize that the population isn't the administration it does give people pause and they certainly look to spend their money elsewhere until the people in power look to build upon relationships with their allies instead of trying to dominate them.
I would love for Canada to build more HSR, but these public-private partnerships are killing the projects. They turn into feasting opportunities for private companies to extract public funds. 4 Billion over 5 years without a shovel even going into the ground? Give me a break.
Show HN: Bracket City – A daily, exploded (?) crossword puzzle
Hi hn - I co-own a diner where I co-host a puzzle night that is kind of like a diner-themed escape room. At the last one, I made a puzzle that was crossword-like clues nested in brackets. People at the diner seemed to like it, so I resolved to make it a real game and Bracket City was born: https://bracket.city.

I love crosswords, so it's been fun to write crossword-like clues:

[it contains MSG]

as well as clues that would not make it into a crossword:

[___ <=== you ===> hard place]

I write all the puzzles and post a new one at midnight ET every day of the week.

Still working on a lot of features/fixes. I'm aware that scoring based on keystrokes is pretty unfair, especially given not-ideal custom keyboard on mobile! Still thinking through the best solution there.

Also fun fact: if you sign up for the email list, you get a special "Word of the Day" email written by James Somers (of https://jsomers.net). The only way to sign up for the email list is to finish a puzzle!

Which raw earth materials could be a show stopper for the US?
How best to contribute to anti-facist efforts as an engineer?
Good morning.

As an American burdened by an over-abundance of empathy, I find myself engulfed in a myriad of anxieties that I am having trouble dealing with. I have a layman's understanding of world history, and I can't stop thinking about one of the later scenes from Schindler's List, wherein the German citizens downwind of a concentration camp were forced to help clean-up rubble because they had committed the crime of indifference and inaction while adjacent to horrific crimes against humanity.

I feel a strong urge to turn my head for my own sanity, which of course is one of the desired outcomes of this 'flood the zone' strategy that these New Nazis have deployed. I will not turn my head.

The problem is that I have things to lose and I'm in a class that will mostly be unaffected by most of their actions, other than inflation and instability, so I'm kind of just constantly checking the news and hoping that those with more to lose actually do something to stop this madness. I have a feeling that many of us, as engineers or otherwise, are in the same boat.

So my question is, what can I do to be civilly disobedient and inflict harm on this insane movement without imperiling myself, or those that I love? I personally don't know where my line is for imperiling myself, or those that I love and I would rather not find out.

Is anyone else struggling with this?
TGAAS
The previous poster was probably thinking about very low power analog circuits or extremely slow digital circuits (like those used in wrist watches), where the on-state of the MOS transistors is in the subthreshold conduction region (while the off state is the same off state as in any other CMOS circuits, ensuring a static power consumption determined only by leakage).

Such circuits are useful for something powered by a battery that must have a lifetime measured in years, but they cannot operate at high speeds.
How does your approach handle keys with spaces? How does it handle multiline strings, escapes and so on?

With your approach, I have to either not use these features, do a lot of manual testing to figure out the corner cases of your implementation, or spend a non-trivial amount of time to implement them because they weren't considered from the start. This hardly seems better than just using JSON.

Yes, but it prepared them to pull the trigger on joining NATO at any time. It dont blame them and honestly, I don't think Russia cares very much, even if they complain a bit.

The Russia-Finland border is very sparsely populated and it's easily one of the least traversable terrains world wide, excluding mountain ranges and oceans. It's nothing but hills, swamps, lakes, forrest swamps and hill swamps.

The point is: Joining the EOP program is a huge warning sign that you're about to join NATO at any moment.

> Russia got that when they seized Crimea. Ukraine couldn't join even if they wanted at that point by NATO's own rules without renouncing control of Crimea

They could have just given up on Crimea, signed the NATO deal and immediately renewed their claims.

Also, these "rules" are loose guidelines at best. Plenty of countries have joined NATO with ongoing border conflicts. Prime example: Greece and Turkey.

Yes, I am familiar and have driven the autobahn on multiple occasions, and occasionally at speeds exceeding what we discuss here.

It is irrelevant what the road is, or how fast people prefer to drive. It's not a race track, other drivers are not race drivers, the road is not maintained to race track standards, and cars and drivers are not equipped with race safety equipment. Your driving must be able to safely handle a car or truck going 80 swerving in front of you with no prior warning just as you pass it, and at 210 that's equivalent to crashing into a stationary object at 130 km/h (i.e., everyone and their cat dies).
I never blamed the Chinese suppliers, since to me as the end consumer it's irelevant who their suppliers are and what they do, I only blamed the German companies that sold me the product since I gave them the money not to their Chinese suppliers so it's their responsibility to provide me with a quality product.
