I can relate to this. In 2017 I was traveling around Europe and planned to go to Chernobyl because a friend of mine really wanted to visit there. We ended up our trip short in Moscow, unfortunately, because Kyiv was hosting the UEFA Champio

The fancy app is just something extra you get for close to no cost. Vertical integration is where Tesla is really strong at. An app or something pretty to look at is almost guaranteed once you get the rest right, IMHO.

Tesla's profit per vehicle is much better than the competition. If this becomes a severe problem, there are multiple venues it can pursue to avoid stock piling up, such as: * Reduce prices further, making buying a Tesla even more attra

Oh, I loved Amarok back in the days! Nowadays the only end-user player I know that has some of its abilities is Apple's Music.

Because I was maintaining some IRC bots, I knew the IRC protocol quite well back in the days. I remember when I was about 12 years old... The school computers were quite limited in terms of software and it was just not viable to download or

There's nothing evil in inside trading. It's a shame that it's against the rules in most markets. It only benefits some parties that aren't really invested into the company.

Doesn't snow as much, but the rain/wind can be pretty bad, and people still bike everywhere.

My experience riding over 37k km in less than a year all around Europe with my Tesla Model Y hasn't been any like it (many trips, including from The Hague to Malmö, The Hague to Berlin, The Hague to Budapest passing by Vienna, and more

Value is subjective. It's not from nothing. It's from human action. In an oversimplification, when Peter decides to do business with Paul and Paul is interested in taking his business it's because both believe they'll be

Exactly. Thinking wealth is a zero-sum game is short sighted. Yes, there are many rich people who are rich directly or indirectly thanks to wealth redistribution: the state is very powerful in taking wealth using force (violence) from the p

Replaceable battery isn't easy and likely won't happen for cars. Maybe for airplanes when the time comes, but even then I'm a bit skeptical... Maybe for part of it for bigger jets. 3min is better than 10min, but ask anyone if

I think it "depends on the market". My Tesla Model Y 2023 in the Netherlands complains a lot if I take my hands off the steering wheel. Heck, it even complains sometimes when my hands are in the steering wheel! However, I rented a

I'm really into driving and all, but I've been in Detroit a year ago and it sucked. The only good thing about it was the Henry Ford Museum and the fact that Canada is just across the border.

This reminds me that recently I, here in the Netherlands, had to send a letter and made the mistake of writing it in the wrong format (to/from), but still the address in where it should be 'from' was really small, and 't

Did you even read beyond the title? To say that because of this choice of title, I lack humbleness or respect for peers who came before me is despicable. My title is too presumptive. Yet, the reality for almost everyone who doesn't int

Yes! This might seem silly, but if you're working with a lot of data, it can be a pain and time drain...

Indeed. That's why I mentioned it's a 128-bit identifier format in the first line of the article, rather than 128-bit identifier. I probably spent 10min writing something to explain this, but then it wouldn't really be helpfu

Hi. I'm the author of the post here. I agree lines 12-14 doesn't do a proper encoding, but that's not what I was after. Would you still say it's still wrong if you consider that my function is not really encoding the str

Author here. I posted this because I've witnessed many systems in companies I've worked for where our end-users needed UUID to communicate with it (technical support, customer ID, etc.) in a way that makes communication harder. We

Globals are a nightmare. Despite this being something really common to do for developers and something that will cause a pain for a lot of early adopters of [whatever software that requires it], I see this as a great move!

Wanting to have a government organization buy something like the Internet Archives sounds like a terrible idea for me. It's not like you'd keep lobbyists away from it. A great alternative is to build the Internet Archive so that a
