Affordable housing itself is typically used as a poison pill because it makes it harder to turn a profit building. My biggest pet peeve is when some 5 over 1, 9 foot ceiling, crappy finishes, bound to be ghost-town ground level retail, apar

right, EV city scooters are arguably already doable, modulo annoying charging, since in places where you'd feel compelled to ride a scooter you'd be less likely to have dedicating parking with charging for it. Motorcycles though r

With bicycles weight and refinement is a huge issue so to get something nice you do have to use more premium materials and production techniques. If you forego low weight and refinement, there are plenty of Alibaba specials both in kit and

my point was that if a hardware vendor were to approach this problem, they'd probably have 2 (prev,next) partitions that they write firmware to, plus separate mounts for config and logs, rather than a kitchen-sink CoW FS

conversely, running a firewall on something like ZFS also sounds like too much. Ideally I'd want a read-only root FS with maybe an /etc and /var managed by an overlay.

In terms of travel it has as much as a normal motorcycle. Which is really absurd for a 24" bike even with those stubby crank arms.

If you put miles on your bike and ride hills, you'll spend way more time fiddling with an allen/torx on the inboard pad or the adjustment barrel on the cable as your pads wear. The bleeding procedure for hydraulics is for sure mes

yeah but what's the point? At this price point alibaba monsters are far more powerful and real bicycles far more bicycle-like. These will sell a 10-20k units and fade into obscurity like Van Moofs and other disruptive bicycles before t

bikes are already highly "modular" in that outside of ebike motor systems you can swap most parts. Bikes like the Rivian in the article would only work if ruggedized and sold to fleets. As a consumer you'd just get something

Article says their recurring cost is $17.5k, they'll spend at least that amount in terms of human time tending to their cluster if they have to drive to it. It's also a question of magnitudes, going from $0.5m/mo to $0.05m&#x

Waymo has replaced my (infrequent) use of Uber/Lyft in 80% of cases ever since they opened to the public via waitlist. The product is pretty good most of the time, I just think the odd long-tail behaviors become a guarantee as you scal

Simultaneously, Waymo is adopting more human-like behavior like creeping at red lights and cutting in front of timid drivers as it jockeys for position. I still think that Google isn't capable of scaling a rideshare program because it

right, CF (along with Google and Meta) is already servicing double-digit percentages of the world's traffic so it can absorb whatever packets you can toss at it. On the other hand, I suspect most services are going to fall over at L7 f

What was your infrastructure like? Were the DDoSes affecting you at the application or network layer? I wonder if there's the case to be made for something like CF but integrated into your L4 and L7 LB infrastructure.

Have you played with IPv6 vs IPv4? Wonder what's worse there, CGNAT-ed IPv4 or an inherently low-reputation IPv6.

Even though the gulf between Waymo and the next runner up is huge, it too isn't quite ready for primetime IMO. Waymos still suffer from erratic behavior at pickup/dropoff, around pedestrians, badly marked roads and generally jam o

Very little of that anywhere in the country, especially when it's the rights of drivers vs other road users. San Francisco is a bit better but gets bad when it goes through its boom cycles that bring lots of people in.

I don't think it's that, I think they just want people to onboard onto these things before understanding what the actual cost might be once they're not subsidized by megacorps anymore. Something similar to loss-leading endeav

That doesn't make much sense, driving a gas car from Jersey is gonna eat up a couple of gallons of fuel ($10x20=$200/mo), insuring it will be $200/mo, if it's not paid off it'll cost at least $500-600, parking will

Whenever I see that guy in the headlines, he's trying to pump the stock by making nebulous threatening statements. Can't wait for this era of public persona CEOs to be over, with the most egregious examples of them stuck in prison
