I am surprised more mechanics aren’t developing conversion kits for their customers. It would be a good way to deal with the impending decline of ICE maintenance requirements.

Plus you’d think it would really scratch the gear head itches a lot of mechanics have.

It would create demand for car bodies that were well built and easily serviceable. I guess I just wish things were very modular.

I’ve seen a number of similar research projects but the issue is economic incentive and scale. Until those are addressed this is continental shelfware.

Maybe capacity?

Thanks!

What annoying things are you referring to Firefox on Linux? I am assuming Pocket is one, are there others?

Anyone with kids knows this would be a good source of entropy.

How far away are we from printing something like this at home?

Why is that too late, I am curious if you have any source or data for that?

This was my thought as well. Regarding modularity, batteries seem to be the easiest to deal with. I was always impressed with Tesla’s idea of laptop batteries, it essentially has not changed much. Lots of little batteries.

I hear you but I would like something new.

The closest concept that tickled my fancy was the Bollinger B1.

It was close but it was missing something as simple as airbags. I want a utility vehicle I can spray out with a hose, throw kayaks in, and seat 5 adults. For 30K, please?

Interesting analysis, but I wonder if they have plans the author is not aware of.

BMW knows Tesla is eating their 3 series lunch. I’d be surprised if they had nothing up their sleeve.

I am constantly surprised that anyone is surprised by this.

Strength training has been the single most effective way for me to influence my emotional state.

Strength training is different from ‘exercise’ in that you’re progressively becoming stronger over time by repeating the stress and adapt cycle to build lean muscle, bone density, neuromuscular capacity, and joint strength.

The chemicals/hormones this natural process produce reshape your perception of the world. It’s really powerful stuff. And it’s really easy to do.

There are excellent programs to accomplish this which even if done poorly produce dramatic results.

I’m speaking from personal experience.

Can anyone explain why this might be exciting? (genuinely curious)

I prefer the terminal as well. Maybe he should just take the time to make a proper vimrc file and stop hyperventilating.

Ah, I was using public in the sense of a publicly traded corporation. Meaning, the public has access to ownership and that the corporation cannot decide who gets to own shares.

> Public corporate ownership is all very well, I'm not in principle against it in certain areas.

I assume you're not against the publicly traded stock market, just clarifying since others may interpret this as such.

> However what I suspect you are advocating is enforced public ownership.

This is not the conclusion I come to, I do not believe my original post suggests this.

> Forcing universal public ownership and prohibiting private enterprise is oppression, pure and simple.

This was not my viewpoint. I am imagining quite the opposite. If the liability is dispersed, so should ownership. If the ownership is private, the liability should be private. I believe both are critically necessary. These feels like a conservative(dictionary version) viewpoint.

Corporate structures are designed to disperse liabilities in a tragedy of the commons sort of way. Therefore, what is the moral rationale for a “private” corporation, or for that matter any liability limiting instrument for private parties.

Public corporate ownership makes a lot of sense to me.

(I was hoping this would spur interesting discussion)

This review provides little useful, actionable, or insightful information. I was very surprised to see this make the front page.

Now your post is grayed out.

Someone is watching...

Excellent summarization, my thoughts exactly!

> spending $1 million on utility-scale wind turbines, or solar panels will each, over 30 years of operation, produce about 50 million kilowatt-hours (kWh)—while an equivalent $1 million spent on a shale rig produces enough natural gas over 30 years to generate over 300 million kWh.

Six times more is not with the externalized costs. Maybe if it was 100X or 1000X there would be an argument. This lays bare the faulty reasoning.

Python’s new type hinting seems to solve most problems pragmatically, are there issues you have with it?

It means focusing on learning the toolchains and ecosystem in my free time so that I was really productive with the technology.

I remember betting hard on python in 2008. I was all in.

I watched as the ML space embraced it as the lingua franca. It was exciting.

Best decision of my career :)

Your website JavaScript was ruining my browser history. I had more then 10 entries and could not go “back”.

Just a friendly heads-up.

This article conflates the reporting and engineering aspects of the two processes, then it goes on to focus purely on the reporting. There was also no discussion of engineering discipline and how that fits into their process, despite the waterfall graphics showing requirements and design.

I love stuff like this. It’s awesome to think about all the things that were different than we imagine.

AirPods becoming a screenless iPhone is much different than AirPods having cellular connectivity.

A screen provides significant bandwidth to the human. Simply reducing the bandwidth to pure audio is likely insufficient but for only a few use cases.

Can you elaborate, would be interested to understand your concern.
