   Ok, they are not handcrafting fiber optics into the shapes of a star. But what I'm seeing in this video is a lot of argument from authority, posturing, pomp and inefficient bespoke manufacturing processes. When you actually look at t

   When I think of the countless software jobs that automated other people out of work perhaps it is poetic justice that we also did it to ourselves.

   Fair, a more apt comparison is the Hongqi E-HS9: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4d_-W23mgc But on a driver experience feature-by-feature comparison the Li-L9 actually competes with a Rolls Royce: - flat vertical reclinab

   Sorry but this is cope. Why do you assume the build quality must be disastrously bad? In Australia where there is no tariff on Chinese EV's there are many Chinese vehicles on the road now -- this logically suggests an expansion of re

   People in America and Canada where there is a 100% tariff on Chinese EVs don't appreciate what they are missing out on. For ~$60k you can buy vehicles like the Li Auto L9 that are nicer than a brand new Rolls Royce. The value for pric

   I'm curious if any Ruby gems support HTTP/3? A quick google search found me nothing.

    Likely the latter. But the article expresses no interest or desire in changing it.

    Max Planck argued that change takes time because good ideas need enough staying power to outlive their detractors: > A new scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light, but rather because it

    Something rubs me the wrong way about this article. I struggle to articulate it, but it would be how success in science now requires political ability. It's rare to find people who are both good scientists and good politicians.

    What I don't understand is how do they afford the storage costs? Surely it must be pricey to have 70+ petabytes of data that's only growing.

    I was looking to a book a wedding in this venue (The Permanent) and the Internet Archive server is prominently visible on the 2nd floor. The server is pretty cool and adds to the aesthetics of the space.

    You don't need to be a degenerate alcoholic to see negative health effects from drinking alcohol. Alcohol hastens obesity by being high in calories, impairs sleep quality, damages your brain/liver and may be a carcinogen. The poi

    The TikTok ban was motivated primarily by the Israel lobby wanting to crack down on pro-Palestinian content.

    If you are going as far as a remodeling, just get a powerwall added to the entire house's electricity supply and you avoid confusion/hassle at the outlet level.

    I love the syntax of that SCL programming language, very intuitive and clean. Much nicer than Javascript.

    I thought the recent news that McDonald's is no longer the largest fast food chain on the planet by number of locations was more interesting. Dethroned by a China's Mixue bubble tea franchise.

    By definition, it is impossible for a single winner contest like the Presidency to be proportionally elected. Proportionality matters for multi-member bodies like legislatures or parliaments. I.e. 20% of the vote nets 20% of the seats. S

    The only recent historical comparison I can think of -- and it's a weak one compared to today's meeting -- was when Obama firmly reiterated to Netanyahu his insistence on the 1967 lines as the basis for a two state solution, and N
