I thought this until I looked at the histogram of private car trip lengths. The vast majority of trips are very short. Its unlikely they're all being done on the same day.

Thats incredible. We use up to 30kWh/day (heating a poorly insulated house), which is almost double the national average household daily usage here in Australia. I guess you really do use alot more power living in a freezing climate.

I love baremetal but I agree, distributed storage is hell. I found it slightly harder to sleep at night managing a prod Ceph cluster.

I find the reason it works is because it has a smaller surface area and the culture is to even enforce formatting (with go fmt). Your brain has an easier time coming back to things and parsing them, even if the language isn't exactly

I was evaluating different formats for JSON-like formats and found that JSON parsing can be extremely fast and quite competitive with static binary formats.

Additionally the F150 only appears to charge at about 150kW max, which is somewhat slow for a >=100kWh battery, and I imagine the Cybertruck will beat that.

I hate that it is so attention-grabbing. Having a long life stainless steel body with low-maintenance motors, long distance battery pack, and fast charging, really appeals to the engineer in me.

Nope, you can use the rice as normal in a recipe, no change. And the grains go straight into the grain mill and turn into flour the same as normal.

Sound advice, but unfortunately after regular medical avenues were exhausted, I had to take matters into my own hands or suffer terribly.

I went through every supplement, desperately for anything that works. Vitamin C actually had no effect or maybe even made things worse. There's evidence this is an autoimmune condition, which could be why steroids seem to help the sym

I keep rice and grains permanently in a chest freezer. It is fairly low power and you can cook directly from frozen, 1 cup at a time.

Rust probably didn't exist when this decision was made. Out of the box from day one, Go is great at writing HTTP services including proxies, which is a large part of what Heroku needed. Ocaml is harder to use and not a popular choice

Unsure why I'm downvoted. What I meant was: Yes, energy density would be nice to improve, but is not what is stopping people buying EVs currently. Imagine if they halved in cost but kept the same energy density. Yes, driving 1 tonne

This isn't really a relevant metric though; current EVs have sufficient energy density, its the price and shortages that are causing issues.

re: org level. This is especially true for anyone on call (pager duty). Leaving a bit in the tank every day increases ability to respond to sudden emergencies more intelligently and with less burnout afterwards.

In practice, many Go developers use a linter to generate warnings for things you forgot.

If "in practice" is OK, then Go looks pretty good again.

+1 ! They actually did some coverage of projects in India, if I recall correctly, showing water harvesting techniques that accelerated biomass growth.

Yeah, it took me so long the first time I came across it, I kept thinking I was missing something as it made no sense. But now that I understand it, it's fine.

I get what you're saying, but taken to an extreme, every language would be the same (or, we'd only have one language). After you get used to a subjective alternative it becomes the new normal.

> thinking through edge cases is something that frequently consumes a lot more time than literally typing the code out. Isn't this even worse in Rust?
