At $14k&#x2F;ea, this is a calculated risk.<p>Maybe they can make the vehicles work. Maybe they can sell the parts to existing owners.<p>In the worst case, what&#x27;s the scrap value of the packs and other components?<p>&quot;It is our intention to collaborate with the Fisker Owners Association to create a universally beneficial pipeline of parts as well as technical and mechanical support.&quot;

The argument that the code may contain third-party licensed code that can&#x27;t be open sourced is the usual retort that comes next.<p>I&#x27;m with you, though. This is a place where consumer protection needs to be bolstered.

You have a &quot;How can we improve?&quot; button, but nothing happens when I click send – perhaps that&#x27;s one thing you can improve? :)<p>My unsent feedback was:<p>I clicked on an itinerary on the home page, was asked to sign up&#x2F;in, signed in with Google, and was taken to <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;itineraries.io&#x2F;home" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;itineraries.io&#x2F;home</a> instead of the itinerary I had clicked on.<p>It would be good to be able to explore itineraries without having to sign up&#x2F;in to see what the site is about, but if you&#x27;re determined to get people to sign in, at least take them to where they wanted to go afterwards.<p>Nitpick: The spinning globe is painfully obviously a flat image. It&#x27;s also spinning in the wrong direction ;)

By the time you&#x27;ve written a Python that has all explicit types in it, and harvested the speed advantages the interpreter can have when it can count on that, and all the other cascading changes that would result, and the fact that you would discard 100% of all previous modules both Python and C, you might as well just start using one of the existing statically-typed languages that already has a mature ecosystem.<p>Python should be working on being the best Python it can be, not being an adequate Python and an inadequate bodged-on static language on the side.

It&#x27;s not though. It&#x27;s much more regular than english, but there are a lot of issues (which were addressed in the past).<p>Take for example the sentence &quot;Ea ia ia&quot;. It&#x27;s pronounced &#x2F;ja ja ia&#x2F;.<p>Some examples:<p>* x exists and it&#x27;s not clear if it&#x27;s pronounced &#x2F;ks&#x2F; or &#x2F;gz&#x2F;.<p>* e is sometimes pronounced &#x2F;je&#x2F;<p>* h is pronounced as &#x2F;x&#x2F; sometimes and Romanians don&#x27;t realize this. E.g. hrană is [ˈxra.nə] even though people think they say [ˈhra.nə]<p>* i is the worst letter in Romanian. It has three pronunciations: &#x2F;i&#x2F;, &#x2F;j&#x2F; and &#x2F;ʲ&#x2F;. Take for example &quot;copiii&quot;. Is it pronounced &#x2F;kopiji&#x2F;, &#x2F;kopiii&#x2F;, &#x2F;kopʲji&#x2F;? Nope, it&#x27;s &#x2F;koˈpi.iʲ&#x2F; . In the past &#x2F;j&#x2F; and &#x2F;ʲ&#x2F; were written with ĭ making things a bit easier.<p>* Stress is not written which causes confusions between words like &quot;muie&quot; &#x2F;mu&#x27;je&#x2F; (softened) and &quot;muie&quot; &#x2F;&#x27;muje&#x2F; (blowjob)<p>* &#x2F;ɨ&#x2F;is written as both î and â based on some stupid rule to preserve România being writen as România instead of Romînia. This is to remind foreigners that we were once Romans, but it&#x27;s pointless because most foreigners think Romania means &quot;land of Roma (gypsy) people&quot;.<p>I&#x27;ve heard that Serbian in Cyrillic is very phonetic though.

Here is the key thing from the article:<p>&gt; And ICANN typically doesn’t redelegate ccTLDs without the consent of the losing registry. [..] Niue, the Pacific island nation, has been fighting fruitlessly for control of .nu for two decades, for example, but the extant registry doesn’t want to hand it over so ICANN has not acted.<p>ICANN does have rules for decommissioning old domain, but it&#x27;s a very remote chance anything will happen and even then - there would be a decade long transition period.

There is value in those other things. Administration is an important job - while it is justifiably looked down on because it is easy to bloat, there are important things that need to be done. And those administrators really should have comfortable chairs, motorized standing desks (yes both!), coffee, and other those other little things that make life in an office better.

That&#x27;s a bit like saying that the invention of the airplane proved that animals can fly, when birds are swooping around your head.<p>I mean, sure, prior to alphafold, the notion that sequence &#x2F; structure relationship was &quot;sufficient to predict&quot; protein structure was merely a very confident theory that was used to regularly make the most reliable kind of structure predictions via homology modeling (it was also core to Rosetta, of course).<p>Now it is a very confident theory that is used to make a slightly larger subset of predictions via a totally different method, but still fails at the ones we don&#x27;t know about. Vive la change!

I think you&#x27;re getting it backwards. The research operations are a desperate attempt stave off regulation to keep the sweet, sweet monopoly profits coming in (and those profits are <i>so big</i> that the bean-counters allow it). I believe that was the explicit strategy at AT&amp;T. We collectively pay way, <i>way</i> more.<p>It&#x27;d be way more efficient and cost effective to just set up a well-funded government labs to do that research.

Yes, and it is the engineering experience&#x2F;skill to know when to follow the &quot;rules&quot; of the reference architecture, and when you&#x27;re better off breaking them, that&#x27;s the entire thing that makes someone a senior engineer&#x2F;manager&#x2F;architect whatever your company calls it.

Btrfs snapshots are the closest thing I can think of. It doesn’t have the concept of branches specifically, but you can take snapshots of the entire file system and view specific files from those snapshots without having to roll back the whole system.<p>Manual saving files with different version names is the easiest solution that would probably work for most use cases. That’s what I do for music production. Every time I start a session I save my project with a new minor version, e.g. Epic Banger v0.4, in case I need to revisit older versions. I wish there was a way to include change log messages though.

At minimum, I assume if I sign up you&#x27;re going to start emailing me, and I haven&#x27;t even seen enough to decide if I&#x27;m actually interested yet.<p>Worst case (often the case) those email addresses get collected and eventually sold off to some marketing spam list that just adds more junk to my inbox and adds a little bit more information to some marketing profile about me somewhere.<p>A video demo would definitely help demonstrate that at least there&#x27;s a &quot;there&quot; there.

personal days of reflection and work make sense, but a holiday is probably inaccurate.<p>things like toyotathon, various days of awareness or visibility, and prime day are essentially nihilist holidays, where the &quot;holy&quot; aspect of them is replaced with some material and un-sacred interest, and &quot;celebrating&quot; just means promoting or selling to people who don&#x27;t care. Nobody is celebrating these things and acting them out is a banal rejection of meaning.<p>I like the idea of taking days for important personal things, and there is probably a system of living well that includes these tasks, but maybe reflecting on what something &quot;sacred&quot; might actually mean is a better use of it.

Strong agree. As a kid, I remember I&#x27;d have to pause for like 5s every time I wrote &quot;it&#x27;s&quot; or &quot;its&quot; to try to remember what was correct. And it doesn&#x27;t help that what I&#x27;d usually remember is &quot;well apostrophe s denotes possession usually, so surely apostrophe s denotes possession here as well&quot;. But alas not. I think always having the apostrophe makes way more sense.<p>(Nowadays I just don&#x27;t double check it and it&#x27;s basically a cointoss if I get it right or not :P)

I don&#x27;t need or even want a US president to be respected by other countries leaders. All I need is for the POTUS to not get this country involved in more foreign wars. Trump is a lapdog of Israel so he doesn&#x27;t fit this bill, but what I&#x27;m saying is &quot;foreign leaders laugh at him&quot; falls flat. IDGAF.

Well, I don’t know about outside the universe, but you’re still not understanding how scaling works. And our technological progress.<p>The simplest way I can put it is that at some point of compute, there is a crossover where you need less mass to simulate something than the mass of the actual thing is. This will hold true for particle simulations as well. So no, you would not need more particles than the universe has to simulate the universe perfectly.

If you buy a famous painting as an investment, I&#x27;d assume you have enough money to cover the taxes without having to auction it.<p>Accurately valuing the painting every year is definitely very difficult.<p>The same argument doesn&#x27;t necessarily go for a farmer&#x27;s farmland. The zoning could of course be calculated into the land value. But I&#x27;m unsure if farming economics allow for paying the taxes on those unrealized gains

Just to be clear, we&#x27;re talking about a wealth tax above a certain threshold, think hundreds of millions of dollars to billions and billions. This has no application to anything remotely related to the &quot;family farm&quot;. And yes, it is okay to force someone with a half a billion dollars in assets to sell off a small percentage for tax reasons, unless you think they should never ever be taxed for it.

I switched to Go years ago because I know that code I wrote a decade ago is still going to work. And that guarantee is even more ironclad in recent years with modules and vendoring.<p>With a Go project, I can leave it to sit for 3+ years and then pick it back up and add a feature without any issues. I&#x27;ve never had that with a Python project. (and this isn&#x27;t even about the 2-to-3 situation, I just mean minor version to minor version and packages)

Samsung could easily maintain Android as they already have their own little Android software ecosystem that differs greatly from Google&#x27;s. Full of spyware, but yeah.<p>There&#x27;s tons of video hosting options but what makes YouTube special is access to a large audience and monetization. TikTok&#x27;s monetization is garbage and not even a contender really. Large content creators are already negotiating their own brand deals to the point where YouTube&#x27;s ad money is merely the cherry on top. I actually think breaking up YouTube would be good for audiences and in the long run creators themselves. Content creator networks would make a return in a big way.<p>There is already OpenStreetMaps. MapQuest existed before Google Maps and still does.

I&#x27;m always interested in hearing about these people who go and get a PhD in an unrelated field to their original studies, often years after leaving university and working in an industry. Here it says Hasabis did an undergraduate degree in a computer science program, and them spent a decade working on computer games at studios, and then somehow just rocked up to a university and asked to do a PhD in neuroscience.<p>I feel if I tried to do that in the US- (where I got a masters degree in engineering, spent a 15 yrs as an aerospace engineer,)- tried to go back and ask to do a PhD in, say, Physics - I&#x27;d be promptly told to go fuck myself (or, fuck myself but then enroll in a new undergrad or maaaybe graduate program only after re-taking GRE&#x27;s. Straight PhD? Never heard it work like that.)

I think a lot of the traditional teachings of &quot;rhetoric&quot; can apply to coding very naturally—there&#x27;s often practically unlimited ways to communicate the same semantics precisely, but how you lay the code out and frame it can make the human struggle to read it straightforward to overcome (or near-impossible, if you look at obfuscation).

There is no point in chasing a high GDP when it results in a materially worse world. The point of a society isn&#x27;t to make the numbers go up. If a monopoly is super efficient at generating some nebulous concept of value by creating and operating the world&#x27;s largest surveillance system and actively using it to sell influence over people&#x27;s attention and habits then the only sensible thing to do is to dismantle it.

Assessors observe market activity. The &#x27;purchase price&#x27; when you buy land is based on the highest and best potential use of land. The &quot;Land Value Tax&quot; merely appropriates this observed value for public expense (and potential dividend distribution).<p>The fact that you compared &#x27;prime real estate&#x27; to swampland or desert demonstrates a fundamental misunderstanding of ad valorem taxation and land rent generally. While the rate should be the same (ideally as close to 100% as we can get without causing issues) the actual -value- would be dramatically different.<p>Under your hypothetical question, the desert and&#x2F;or swampland could very well have 0 rental value, which means the tax would collect 0 from these locations. 100% of $0 = 0.

Generally the recommendation is to freeze current ties with said entity until the court case gets worked out. By aggressively targeting the employees of said other organization, you&#x27;re risking it being used against you in the ongoing court cases.<p>Regardless, .org and .com are claimed to be separate legal entities, so there is no lawsuit against .org. This is just an escalation out of a sense of moral righteousness.

Getting a cyclic import error is not a bug, it&#x27;s a feature alerting you that your code structure is like spaghetti and you should refactor it to break the cycles.

France has the Académie Française. Well, no-one respects them. The first woman to enter it was Marguerite Yourcenar and she was strongly antifeminist; And they said to not use the Français.e.s spelling and rather keep the usual “Français(es)”, and suddenly all administrations started the dot-based version.

I have no idea what his situation was. Some people do live to over 100 so it is entirely possible that he expected another 10 years and then died in is sleep (as happened to someone else I know who died at 63). If you get a terminal cancer diagnosis you might know you have 6 months or a year, but many people don&#x27;t get that much of a clue (I know one person who was down to 2 weeks when unexpectedly his body fought off the cancer and he lived many years after)

Hmm, it seems like water can be plural or singular purely depending on the author&#x27;s preference. I didn&#x27;t realize that until now.

There are specific subsets of English that are used in certain domains that have standards bodies behind them, like Simplified Technical English for aviation. It even has a working group! [0]<p>VOA also have a Learning English spec for broadcast english [1] but that seems to be a lot looser of a spec.<p>So it&#x27;s definitely not impossible. The funny thing, is I remember being told in grade school that in English Canada, I was to write numbers with a space as the thousands separator. `$10 000.00`, instead of `$10,000.00`. This is because french Canada uses a comma as a decimal point, `10 000.00 $`, so a space is non ambiguous. I have rarely ever seen the English space format in use here. I don&#x27;t think English speakers would respect any authority if it wasn&#x27;t as domain-scoped as Aviation or Learning english.<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.asd-ste100.org&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.asd-ste100.org&#x2F;</a> [1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Learning_English_(version_of_English)" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Learning_English_(version_of_E...</a>

Not just this. Modularity is the main insight as well. The reason why oop doesn’t work is because methods can’t be broken down. Your atom is oop is literally a collection of methods tied to mutating state. You cannot break down that collection further.<p>In pure fp. You can break your function down into the smallest computational unit possible. This is what prevents technical debt of the architectural nature as you can rewrite your code as simply recomposing your modular logic.
