>One way to reduce deaths is just get everyone into cars.

A patently absurd claim that holds up to no scrutiny whatsoever. The whole nation of the U.S disproves it, for one.

Nor do you really need to comment on them, in that case.

I've noticed this as well.

I've also noticed that the effort to de-slop the shit-code is quite significant, and many times eats the productivity gains of having the LLM generate the code.

>There's very few currencies in the world in which 1M isn't enough to retire. USD isn't one of them.

Unless you're planning on retiring as cheaply as humanly possible, 1M is not enough to retire for the large majority of the currencies in the world.

None of the claims in this comment are grounded in reality.

With less hindrance from congestion as well, meaning that they get to make more transactions and hence make more money.

You build the EOL plan in advance.

The things people will do to avoid putting up catenaries truly are wild.

This also exists for Kotlin: https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlin-script-examples/blob/master... (note that the file extension is load bearing in this case, if you don't name it "*.main.kts", it will not work).

It's excellent for writing small scripts/prototyping where you need access to some Kotlin/JVM feature.

Ruby is still my preferred language for small scripts though - the backticks for running external programs is remarkably ergonomic

That's a self-inflicted wound on the part of the companies though, with them offering relatively shit pay for people who stick around compared to people who switch jobs.

You get what you optimize for, really.

How great then that a large injection of revenue from the congestion pricing is coming to help add disability accommodation to the subway stations in NYC.

Anecdotally, I know of someone who used to commute together with a group by private airplane from LA to SF.

This claim is unfounded based on the amount of direct flights alone, and then on top of that you have to add the car traffic going between the cities as well, and trips that now become viable when the travel time is faster and more convenient.

This should be telling all of you in the U.S something important. I wish you all listened to it.

I've anecdotally experienced this as well.

Fwiw, I used to believe that it would be entirely impossible for me to work out in the mornings, but I have managed to make it work, despite generally having had a preference for waking up later. It is doable with some effort, don't get discouraged.

Electric buses in the form of trolleybuses seems like the better option than either of these, although I do agree that battery buses beat hydrogen every day of the week.

It's getting removed too, on 2025-05-02, unless amended.

My experience is that anyone who is sufficiently specialized in either platform will select to develop natively for that platform over using RN, since RN imposes lowest common denominator UX for both platforms, more or less.

I agree, but these are broadly the categories of people most in need of cars. The density provided by apartments often affords less inefficient modes of transport, like transit.

In many places in the world, this ideal falls short however, and hence a push for installing EV chargers in apartment garages is also needed.

Does that figure account for the wildly inefficient nature of internal combustion engines?

Most EV charging happens at home, not at charging stations. Charging stations are the exceptions when recharging EVs.

No countries readily jail people who have the legal right to enter that country as the U.S is currently doing, but if you wish, a reciprocal policy for U.S citizens traveling abroad can certainly be arranged.

Fear not, once Trump is done, the U.S will have lost its position as a superpower and along with it all of its wealth and influence.

I'm not sure I'm entirely on board with this particular format, but I do agree with the larger point of well-crafted commit messages - and commits, for that matter - being an important quality feature in a project.

I'd posit that well-structured commits are principally for the benefit of the reviewer of the code. Order your commits in a fashion that makes sense narratively, and give them meaningful commit messages. Use interactive rebasing liberally if need be to accomplish this goal.

As a reviewer, you are well within your rights to decline a PR that consists of a single non-meaningful commit message and a +/- 1000 lines diff. Effort is expected from both parties in checking in code.

>They’ve stolen unimaginable amounts of IP and will continue to do so.

All AI models are built on the back of massive amounts of "IP stealing". Either we consider IP to be valid and then all western companies in this space are just as bad, or we go with the direction the western companies are claiming and then China is not doing anything wrong.

Crimes against the terms and conditions

What evidence is there to support the claim that Elon Musk is "healthy as an old race horse"?

As is often the case with accessibility affordances, they tend to improve things for groups outside of their intended audience, known as Universal Design. More reading on the subject: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_design

The damages caused by small electric vehicle users is not material when put into the context of all vehicular violence, where cars overwhelmingly dominate.

While I agree with the general anti-car sentiment, we have expensive housing in less car-dependent areas as well (case in point: various cities in Europe), leading to a broad range of social issues. Hence, I have to disagree with this point in particular.
