a rules engine for a web server isnt difficult if it doesnt have to carry responsibility for the web app security itself. then its as the posted outlined really...

that being said, its common for new servers to have old vulns, not many coders will go over cve reports of apache and nginx and test their own code against old vulns in those.

i do find a lot of claims about performance or security are oftend unsupported as with this server. it just says it on the readme but provides no additional contex or proof or anything to back up those claims.

my thought is that original commenter gott riggered by that, perhaps rightfully, and points out thia fact more than anything. if you want to claim high performance or security, back it up with proof.

the simple fact its in rust doesnt make it more secure. and using async in rust doesnt imply good performance. it could in both cases. wheres the proof.?
I am acknowledging your analogy is better than mine. Just take the compliment...
"The situation is bad so all rights can just be completely eliminated" is not actually a tenable position. "We had to do a fascism because of Biden" is not real. It is a choice. One that you need to own.

If the rule is "people we claim are illegal immigrants can be sent to a Salvadoran gulag for the rest of their lives without process and even if we admit we made a mistake with somebody we cannot bring them back" then this means that literally anybody can be sent there. The government just picks me up off the street, claims that I'm an illegal immigrant even though I am a citizen, puts me a on a plane, and then no law or court can save me from spending the rest of my life in hell.

What a system.
I feel like someone really smart who wasn't lazy could get up and figure out an expected load factor weather-adjusted range using an Erlang distribution and apply your charging time hypothesis to see if parity is over or under stasis for the current proportion of EVs.
I recently hired two engineers that were good at clearing the interview rounds using AI -- I knew because I encouraged them to use AI.

But when it came to large complex codebase or problems that required critical thinking everything fell apart.
> These "invisible AI" tools aren't destroying technical interviews - they're just exposing how broken they already were.

Whenever the topic about how broken tech interviews are has showed up on HN in the past, there were usually two crowds: the "they suck, but they're the best we've got" people, and the much less common "they suck, so we do something else" crowd. Almost everyone agreed they were broken.

What does it say about the tech industry that so many orgs continued to use a system that was known to be broken for so long? How much inefficiency and waste over the past couple of decades is attributable to bad hires? And conversely, how many efficiency improvements in the near future are going to get attributed to AI tech rather than the side effect of improved interviewing practices meant to combat AI candidates?
I just don’t buy this argument as a reason people don’t want EVs. The primary benefit of an EV is that you ~never need to stop and “refuel” it unless you’re making a long road trip. You can install a charger at home, even a very slow one that doesn’t need a special circuit, and always have a full battery in the morning. When you do need to stop on a road trip, you can use fast charging, which is ~250 kW, so somewhere around a quarter of the gas pump’s “wattage.” You’ll probably want to use the bathroom/buy a drink anyway, so charging taking four-ish times as long as pumping isn’t really a big deal.
To further expand on this with some back-of-the-envelope calculation, I've heard EVs are on the order of 30-40 kWh. Say the power storage of the gas tank in an ICE car and the battery storage of an EV are commensurate. Conservatively, say refueling your ICE car takes about 1 min, so 30,000 Wh / ((1/60)h) ~ 1.8 MW.
Not true on FB anymore, but a long way. What I see in my feed.

1. Racist meme - probably because I am visible ethnic minority so they hope it is rage bait. I continue to see a lot of wolf whistle racism on FB although I ignore it. A lot of it reads like it is written by someone who is not a native English speaker.

2. Sponsored post advertising a course for kids who want to be lawyers. Probably because I have a teenage daughter and I am an admin of two home education related groups. Not relevant to anything my kids wants to do though.

3. A post from a group I am in.

4. A stupid anti-home ed post - one of these ones where they take an image of a post somehwere else and mock it. More rage bait. It also talks about American stuff (you have school taxes, apparent?) and I am in the UK.

5. A map from a group I am not in that is copied from Our World in Data.

6. A sponsored post for a luxury bed.

7. A meme from a group I think is stupid, suggesting you encourage your daughters to dress modestly.

Everyone gets things wrong sometimes. As important as getting things right is, nobody is perfect. Then, how you react when you make a mistake matters. You can cover up the truth, dissemble, point fingers, or—best of all—be humble and honest and apply the lessons learned in the future.

Yeah, both RedwoodJS and BlitzJS appeared at about the same time as we started Wasp (https://github.com/wasp-lang/wasp), with the same mission of being Rails/Laravel for JS.

We were excited to see that several instances of the same core idea appeared at the same time, and it gave us validation that we're on the right path. A bit sad about Redwood moving away from the original vision, but interested to see where this new direction takes it.
Clippy? Bonsai Buddy? Is that you?
> You can install a charger at home, even a very slow one that doesn’t need a special circuit

Lots of people rent, and might not have a parking space with charging available.

That said, battery and charging technology is evolving, so it might be a solved problem 10 years from now - especially as Toyota and Idemetsu Kosan are on track for mass producing Solid State EV batteries by 2028 [0]

The article starts off strong by making a strong argument that 'it's different this time' because of the US's trade deficit and how Americans buy too much junk and don't save enough.

But then it says 'That would lead U.S. GDP to rise, resulting in higher employment, higher wages, and less debt.' This is clearly false as tariffs distort the market. With free trade every country can specialize in what it is best at (their comparative advantage) maximizing GDP. So no, the GDP would fall because Americans are forced to divert resources from more lucrative industries.
yeah, what the parent commenter said makes little sense. Google search certainly won't do this and not a lot of people use google as a cdn (and even if they did I doubt there is an adword/adsense integration like that). Maybe if you click like every result from a google search. Most annoying ads aren't served by the top ad providers anyways, there are a lot of ad networks and ad delivery services out there.

The #1 cause of that bot experience is vpns and proxies. I get that 3rd rate experience myself, but even then it is bad but not unusable bad.
A social media platform doesn't have the same networking effect when everyone speaks different languages. If you make a social media site in country A, and get everyone to use it there, happened a lot in Europe, but it doesn't spread to neighboring countries since all users spoke a different language.

This means that only really large countries can compete here since they start out with a big userbase and its much more likely for a smaller countries population to migrate to a large app than vice versa.

Where I live it took to after 2010 until American social media was more popular than local ones.

There are bigger markets than the USA in the world. Some that are even more prepared in the face of rising costs of petrol and gas, and that have seen this "Trump" hypothesis coming for several months, if not years.

USA is 17% of worldwide importations. Other growing markets (China, further integrating Europe, Africa, South America, India; even Russia, that's coming from far down) can take that cut, even if it's a temporary hard blowback. How long can the USA take a 50% cut of their importations? How long can the USA take a shift of the international exchange going to another currency than the dollar?

American exceptionalism used to be a thing. It still is, in very specific market segments, but that are now going to be heavily challenged, for sovereignty reasons rather than economic ones.

So I am not sure where is this going? Likely not in the appreciation of US stock market. Or maybe you have some factories, and factory workers, and raw materials hidden somewhere?
Subjectively, it feels like I keep seeing more and more reasons for a shift towards a low alcohol and low carb / keto-like diet.

I haven't touched music production stuff for about 18 years (Mackie D8b + protools represent), however its great to see someone break down a song bit by bit. It also helps that the song they are covering is a banger.

Any of the maximize or minimize arguments are going to be simplistic and reductionist. The optimal real world strategies are always going have to account for other factors like relationships, political stability, goal alignments, power/dynamics, etc, etc. These factors will be different for each nation you're dealing with and will greatly affect what the best import/export and tariff ratios should be. And these may also change over time. The importance of these factors (different for each nation) are so strong as to overwhelm any of the economist theories about maximize/minimize.
It seems to be 10x for 80% and 20x for 100% while 100% gives 50% of the range of a gas vehicle for a full-speed level 3 charger. Level 2 chargers are another order of magnitude slower (say 8 hours). I I would like to see the wattage over time for gas to compare with.

The article

>The commission estimates that more than 162,000 chargers are Level 2, which can provide roughly 14 to 35 miles of range per hour of charging, and nearly 17,000 are considered fast chargers
It really is not. People will still do it.
No: it's a fraud be that legal or moral.

If you want a job that someone is offering and they ask you for irrational, unreasonable, or just stupid demonstrations as a prerequisite for getting hired, you have one choice: decide for yourself the show isn't worth the price of admission and walk away... or you do the irrational, unreasonable, or just stupid thing asked to the best of your ability and keep your hat in the ring for the gig. Either way honesty and ethics dictate that you either play the game or walk away.

The moment you cheat and lie: that's entirely on you and perhaps your own dumbass decision to train and enter an industry that works this way. Of course, I mean "you" in the abstract, not necessarily you personally.
I've been using it for so many years that I'm not sure when I started, but I've never had issues being labeled as a bot.

What should actually be noted is that Google has rejected the plugin from their store for ages so it does seem to do some damage to adtech.
> The aim would not be to protect specific manufacturing sectors or national champions but to counter the United States’ pro-consumption and antiproduction orientation. The goal of American tariffs, in other words, should be to eliminate the United States’ automatic accommodation of global trade imbalances.

Instead we got a default rate of 10%, and higher rates on (e.g.) Madagascar whose main export to the US is vanilla—which the US can't grow anyways so it's not like they they need to protect anything. Or the Falklands Islands, whose chief export is… the Patagonian toothfish. Does the US have a strategic in that? (And let's not get into the meme-worthy penguin islands.)

There are good reasons for tariffs: national security concerns, infant industry protection, national champions.

But the recent policies are not that.

It's important to also consider industrial base:

> Democratic countries’ economies are mainly set up as free market economies with redistribution, because this is what maximizes living standards in peacetime. In a free market economy, if a foreign country wants to sell you cheap cars, you let them do it, and you allocate your own productive resources to something more profitable instead. If China is willing to sell you brand-new electric vehicles for $10,000, why should you turn them down? Just make B2B SaaS and advertising platforms and chat apps, sell them for a high profit margin, and drive a Chinese car.

> Except then a war comes, and suddenly you find that B2B SaaS and advertising platforms and chat apps aren’t very useful for defending your freedoms. Oops! The right time to worry about manufacturing would have been years before the war, except you weren’t able to anticipate and prepare for the future. Manufacturing doesn’t just support war — in a very real way, it’s a war in and of itself.

My assumption is that Trump understands what a mess he has gotten himself into and wants to extricate his head, without losing face. Congressional action will allow him to do that because he can blame congress for undoing his tariffs which was a good idea all along. This is the only way out.
It is indeed rather easy to reduce homicide rates through mass violation of rights. We'd have much less crime if the government just shot every male under the age of 30 whose income is lower than some threshold. But that wouldn't exactly be a good system.

Basically, you own what you control and can protect from leaving your control, by force, or punishment. The modern state is almost based around ownership and freedom, and takes the responsibility for a lot of that.

It may be immoral (not necessarily a crime, mind you) if someone deceives you, but so is using Bitcoin. You're burning the Amazon, while serving as a cash convertor for criminals. Just for personal gains.
When did you switch to pair programming? Your post starts by stating you just hired the unqualified dev last month, so did this unqualified dev slip through your pair programming system? And if they did, doesn’t that undermine your view that the pair programming approach has dramatically improved your good hire hit rate (or, if pair programming is newly instituted in response to the unqualified dev hire, how can you claim to have an improved hit rate in only one month of use)?

> If 2024 was when they crossed that threshold, that feels like a huge jump in EV chargers (almost 50%) in a single year.

EnbW last year increased their fast chargers by 66% in Germany. They are the biggest fast charger operator now in Germany and operate 6000 fast chargers [1]. I often charge there and can confirm that you can find their chargers everywhere and also that they actually work. According to the annual report, they plan to keep this growth up till 2030.

So yes 50% in California seems plausible.

It is often a mistake to draw conclusions even with benchmarks. Are the benchmarks measuring what is relevant to your use case? Are the benchmarks unbiased.

Your link does not seem to contain any benchmarks anyway.

The Ferron benchmarks on their home page say Apache Pre fork MPM outperforms Apache Even MPM which seems odd to me.
"EVs convert over 77% of the electrical energy from the grid to power at the wheels. Conventional gasoline vehicles only convert about 12%–30% of the energy stored in gasoline to power at the wheels."

EV charging doesn't need to deliver anywhere near the amount of energy contained in gas to displace gas.
Much of the heat from a subway comes from the HVAC in the train. Add more venting to the trains that works with the trains movement and use forced air into the tunnels. Costs more but it can be done. Some of the heat comes from acceleration and braking. Make that more efficient with newer electric motors, better designed tracks, better regenerative braking. If that doesn't work require everyone to disrobe before leaving their underground home.

Another option would be to deprecate trains. Instead people travel through pressurized maglev modules in tubes at 800 mph / 1200 kph. Transcontinental tubes accelerate the modules to 8000 mph / 12,000 kph. Interplanetary offramps eject the module from earth at mach 50+ where it is caught by a sub-orbital robot ship that matches speed and takes the module to the interplanetary colony ship.
Isn't it basically like saying we need to compete with ugliest totalitarian states as their cutting edge mass manipulation and torture methods give them the most efficient tools against terrorists which threaten the stability of the regime that official statistics show as 102.7% approved by its citizens?
You went to the documentation page while I was uploading the website files after I updated the website. You can now refresh the documentation page.
Yeah, of course. I’m a renter, I understand. Some states [1] have laws allowing tenants to install chargers, although obviously not all renters have designated parking spaces. Where I live (NYC), most people rent and the idea of a “tenant parking space” is fairly foreign, but there are a decent number of EV chargers on the street in my neighborhood, so people make it work.

Can we just stop doing performative technical interviews already? The only other industry that does interviews the way we do them for senior people is the performing arts and performing is right in the name.

The engineers I’ve worked with who’ve caused the most damage by far, have have been technical tornadoes who did fine in interviews.

I’ve never seen any damage caused by someone who slipped through the cracks without being able to code at all (and I’ve worked with people like that).

I think we’d be much better off if we just fired people who outright lie about their ability to code and spent more time digging into previous employment history, talking though projects, and talking to old coworkers.
You mean the script that you'd have to check every time you want to install? At least with Docker, unless you're running the container privileged then you have some isolation. However, a package manager is usually the recommended approach since those apps are usually checked by maintainers & often routinely scanned for vulnerabilities. A package manager is my preferred approach.
On the other hand, a significant number of trips will begin their trip with a full "tank" (battery) and will therefore not even need to stop to refill.

While you're not wrong, the two sides (Trump vs Sanders) do have entirely different approaches to reforming the system. The latter would (probably) like more control over production means in the hands of laborers, and sees progressive taxes as a way to support a social state. The former wants top-down control through laissez-faire, and sees reducing taxes as a way to get rid of the state.
