Agreed. CTO JB has referred to Tesla as an energy storage company for a while now.
In the US, you're required to share information about past felony convictions on job applications and so forth, plus there are companies that specialize in tabulating that sort of information. So trying to start over by concealing your past is treated as inherently suspicious.
This seems technologically awesome, but I don't really know how useful this will be presently to everyday people. I can't really think of any Android apps people would want to run on their computer.
As you say, there's a class of apps that works best on a phone and another that works best on a laptop. But there's also a class of apps that you'd want to run everywhere, for example all the addictive social media apps. For these it becomes more of your preference between touch vs point and click interfaces. This is what Windows has been trying to do, offering both paradigms in one device. I've talked to people with these Window devices who will switch between using the full-screen/touch and the windowed/mouse version of the same app based on their context. It's nice to have the options.
I think you're assuming that I believe the extreme opposite, when in fact I believe a moderate opposite.

More Research Problems of Implementing Go
I toured the Tesla factory in Fremont, CA last Monday. During the completely awesome 1 hour tour, our guide answered many detailed questions about their cars and manufacturing processes, including how Tesla instruments battery cells.

We were told that they instrument every single one of the 7,000+ cells for temperature and voltage.

Is that irony? I don't know what irony means anymore. Hmm, might as well google it.
Not really much of a response from CNNIC here. Notice how they spin this situation as Google taking away the rights of others? Google isn't the bad guy here, they're doing the reasonable thing and CNNIC have a lot of explaining to do...
For example, rand() % 10 consumes slightly more memory (eight bytes more, to be precise)
than rand() % 8.

I'm assuming this is because the latter takes fewer instructions to perform?
Glad to see this happening - I removed CNNIC from my machines back in Feb - https://github.com/sammcj/delete-unknown-root-ca
Purely in terms of UI, one possibility regarding maps and similar services, would be to allow the user to choose a preferred provider the first time (s)he searched for a location, like in the Windows browser choice dialog the EU forced Microsoft to implement.
That's really interesting since in the US it's the opposite: apps are released for iOS and months later an Android version will potentially come out.

I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact Samsung, the most successful Android manufacturer, is in South Korea.
Maybe not as much, but Apple has been "poaching" Tesla's engineers.

I generally agree with your categorization, but I would be more specific that Tesla is both a Battery distribution AND marketing company. EVs existed prior to Tesla, but they were the first company to identify and correctly serve the high end market with the Roadster.

My company Chrg specializes in charging infrastructure. Note that the Superchargers you mentioned actually use specially designed Tesla batteries, which are precursors to the Home battery product Tesla will likely be launching soon.

Solar advancements are a great thing for Tesla. Once power is captured via solar panels, it will need to be stored – preferably in Tesla batteries.

No, I don't. I think it's well-correlated, but that correlation varies and people's estimation of it is likely subject to a severe Dunning-Kruger effect - most people likely consider themselves to be above-average judges of character.

Now, as for causality, the more social and economic opportunities you withhold from ex-felons - never allowing them to vote, continually expanding the scope declaration requirements, etc. - the more attractive an option recidivism into criminal activity becomes, in proportion to the degree to which you discount their likely future contribution to society. Put another way, if there's no benefits on offer for going and staying on the straight-and-narrow, then why bother?

The belief you're expressing is known as the 'fundamental attribution error' - a tendency to overestimate the explanatory power of inherent characteristics and discount the role of circumstances. This is no wiser than taking the view that everyone is fundamentally good and that they're mindlessly conditioned by social factors.
In the first Tomb Raider series 1-5 (&6) by CORE the gameplay was about exploration in tombs, ruins and other popular spectacular places, solving puzzles, precisely timing jumps with instant death, and a few enemies like wild animals and a handful human enemies.

With the first Tomb Tomb Raider reboot, the gameplay got easier, the jumps were a lot easier and one got a second chance to unrealistically grab the edge to prevent a fall, there were still a lot of puzzles, more combat and some fantasy elements like a second Lara as enemy.

Tomb Raider 2013 reboot was a superb game. Though its new survivor theme was very different from the older game series. It was more action oriented (one had to kill about 800 enemies in the whole game, most of them human style zombies), had only 6 optional hidden rooms each with a single puzzle to reach the other end. The first two chapters were a tutorial and slow paced, but then within one hour Lara turned from a naive girl to a warrior - a bit too fast. Tomb Raider 2013 reboot changed a lot during the development phase, as one can see in an early development video "Tomb Raider Ascension", that one of the devs posted on YT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbJjcBC2rnc

The upcoming Rise of the Tomb Raider has a story about supernatural(?) and is more about hunting, sneaking and scavenging materials. Hopefully they can integrate more tombs with (non optional) puzzles and less enemies.
If TPP/TTIP were already in effect, would EU regulators have priority over a TTIP court? Stated differently, could Google sue the EU in TTIP court under ISDS rules?
According to Tim Cook, China is becoming Apple's biggest Market. Microsoft software is similarly entrenched in China. There is no way those companies will do anything that jeopardizes that relationship.

Before there was facebook and twitter, there were televisions. It boils down to entertainment and how readily available it is vs how readily available spaces to safely interact with real people are.

If you live in a house, who are you going to go hang out with? Your 2 neighbours? Everybody else takes time to get to. Or you can sit down on the couch and just watch some TV and be entertained without going anywhere. There's never any conflict with a television - hence it is so appealing. You have no real ups, but no real downs. People are largely very risk averse (would much rather not get 2 dollars than lose a dollar)

The solution to people interacting with each other again, is TV/Internet blackouts after 6pm at least half of the week.

When the city I lived in had an electric blackout for 3 days - people came out of their homes and actually talked to one another, it was great. Then everybody went right back to their televisions...

There's no money to be made from people learning to get along with one another and simply talking, playing cards, going for walks... So, not going to happen :) More make-up, clothes, tv-shows and making sure people medicate themselves with overpriced drugs. If people learned to get along via come outside and talk method, the current economy would undergo severe restructuring.
And Linux (and all Unices, as far as I know) have done the same thing without DLL Hell by using versioned share object files, the .so.0.1 and so.1 and so on you see on the end of binary libraries.

The amount of lithium available in known reserves that are profitable to extract at today's prices is very large. We won't be running into constraints anytime soon. And while lithium makes for a good battery anode now, it would be foolish to assume it's the preferred choice for energy storage 15 years down the road.
I believe the ISDS provision would only apply to suing specific States. How Google would go about arguing any given State were responsible, or that all of them were... talk about a convoluted legal situation. I'd be skeptical it would apply to anti-trust actions brought by the EU.

> You are talking about inconveniencing almost all the people

That's the thing, it's not a huge inconvenience. I'm not handy and I was able to easily install devices to both the shower and toilet to reduce water usage. This law would also force home owner associations to cut down on water waste for lawns. I really don't see the inconvenience unless I'm missing something.

> We should just charge more for water for both residential and agricultural use and let people vote with their dollars on how big of an inconvenience it is to them.

I totally agree. I'm just saying that a step in the right direction is better than nothing at all.

Ask HN: Equity when joining a startup?
I'm in negotiations with a team building a startup that would like to bring me on as a technical co-founder. Their previous co-founder left recently because he wanted to move onto other projects. They are apparently still on good terms.

I've been offered about 10% of immediately vested equity (which I believe will be preferred) in the company to take their existing app to market. I will be initially working part time. Their app is nearly complete and seems to be well built; I've reviewed the app and the codebase.

The founders (3) have a track record with selling previous companies. I don't know them well but they seem professional, focused and skilled in the respective areas. They have a good plan to market, an experienced team and what I sense to be a sane perspective on building a company.

They've been working on their product for about a year now and seem to have done a fair amount of customer development and have a good pitch deck, sales pages and other supporting docs.

I'm going to get legal review before I sign anything but I'd love to understand:

- What resources are helpful for someone in my situation?
- What are important questions to ask?
- What things should be red flags/concerns?
- Is the immediate vesting strange?
- Is ~10% reasonable considering I'm coming on when I am and that I'm joining an existing team that has a beta product?

Thank you so much for any suggestions or guidance!
Tesla is not a battery company until they actually start manufacturing batteries.
>Probably the bigger problem is that the more money you'd be willing to pay to get rid of ads, the more your eyeballs are worth to a potential advertiser. You're demonstrating that you have disposable income that you're willing to part with to overcome an inconvenience.

Hm. Conventional wisdom is that at least for websites making money off of adsense, you don't want to advertise to Engineers, because like most sophisticated customers they don't click on ads.

My take is that the class of consumers willing to pay money to block ads is likely to be more sophisticated than average, and thus less likely to click on ads.
Freebase is a database of things Blekko is a company that classifies things Watson interprets the relationships between classifications . This stuff is way beyond a search engine .

People talking about needing to building a better search engine better get to work because I think that space is almost abandoned .

A recommendation , an opinion , and a result are a hell of a lot different .
Of course the problem with that is if you search not logged in or in an incognito window, you'll get asked every single time (on the other hand, this is exactly what happens with the EU cookie warning, so...).

Seems like a chasm problem. The products are early adopter material but the expected quality is mainstream. If they are marketed as mainstream products that's the problem.

I think the exchange battery=wifi reset scale is a good example. An early adopter will think "weeee my scale can talk to the internet" and then reconfigure when the battery runs out. It's kind of expected as a trade of for being one of the first people to have a scale that talks to the internet.
Someone that is more of a mainstream customer will get very annoyed by this (why doesn't it "just work").
I think the OP is leaning early adopter (clearly willing to try new stuff) but he expects mainstream quality...that's a common sign of mismarketed products (oversold the maturity)

The rpoposed solution from browsing the comments here seems to be to "just make the products better, they are not that good". I tihnk I disagree. The products as mentioned seem fine as long as they are clearly marketed as early adopter material. The failure to do so is the problem. It's valuable to collect that annoyance and improve the product for the mainstream version.

tl;dr: MVP isn't the problem. It's failing to communicate that the product is more of an MVP than a polished product.
Writing a new token will make a lot of noise in the system, exposing the breach. Using a stolen token from a new IP, perhaps much less so, although that too should set off warning bells. Appeal to authority aside, I can't see a downside.

What I like most about 'token = sha256(token)' is that it expresses a significant part of the design in a single, obvious line of code; we don't store tokens, we can't provide tokens after the fact, we can't display tokens on our god-mode UI, if you lose your token a new one much be regenerated because we simply don't have it anymore, the token must not encode data beyond being a unique random value, we cannot be socially engineered into sharing your token with an attacker, the token will never be disclosed through a timing side-channel, insider threats cannot access your token, etc.
That's because everything is growing in China, including probably Android and Chromebooks. Google just had the guts to do the right thing.
How on earth can a strategy centered around generating, storing and transmitting electricity be considered blue-ocean?
As the maintainer of a very small project (probably only 1000 users at its peak), a non-technical person would have been able to help me a lot. Because it was a one-person only affair, I had only so much time. I probably spent half of it writing and updating documentation, and building and testing installs. I ended up having very little time to code and since there were features that I absolutely needed for me, I often just jammed them in as best I could. Just having time to concentrate only on code would have helped me a lot. Also, it might sound strange, but if you want a project to gain traction outside of your little world you need marketing. I would have loved to have someone who could write a blog post or two explaining why the project was different than all of the other similar ones around. Doubling or trebling the user base may have attracted another programmer to help with the technical side. The website I built essentially contained only the documentation and while I feel happy with the quality of that documentation, it absolutely lacked anything that would attract new users. Building a screencast showing the killer features would also have been incredibly useful. It was all on my TODO list, but I just lacked time to do it because I barely had time to code the features I wanted.

As you mention, user interface spikes would have been fantastic and saved me huge amounts of time in experimentation.

The thing on your list which I personally would not have found useful Planning Poker. I actually did make sprints and wrote stories and even tracked my velocity. But in the end, you wind up doing demand-based work. Like I said, I wrote the system for me and there were just things I needed done. Those things took top priority no matter what. And with a lack of time, I very rarely got off that list. Even in a large project, I don't think you are going to get much different: coders are in it for scratching their own itch. They will self-prioritise their work and there won't be too much difficulty coordinating it.
Except there are plenty of Chinese websites (including Baidu) that offer the latest Chrome downloads. In fact, the majority of my friends (I am a Chinese) all use Chrome and they are not software developers. Many Chinese websites are tested against Google Chrome (in addition to IE and Firefox). Put simply, people in China act as if Google Chrome were not blocked at all.

Many common misconceptions here, the main one being that online advertising is completely click-dependent. The biggest share of the ad dollars is actually coming from brand-building campaings where dollars are spent for impressions that aren't even optimized for KPIs related to clicks.
Yes, really. It is true that iOS share increased after iPhone 6, but Android first/iOS later is an established pattern by now and I guess old habits change slowly.
