Can't seem to find it with a brief google search. But a story like this came out ~6 months ago and the components were all off the shelf microprocessors, sensors, and similar electronics.

These aren't really "from" the US companies. They're commodity parts that US & other Western companies design that are manufactured in Asia and sold around the world. The parts are used way too widely to be tracked

Because they need both an ICE and battery powered engine it's a more complex & expensive solution than picking one or the other. Not only expensive in dollars but car weight, storage room, maintenance, and so on. It's okay as

It's anywhere from slightly to very wrong for each section. Pretty cool as a tech demo but definitely should not be used to understand a legal document.

I'd look into CBT via a self help book or therapist. "digital technology = bad, physical nature = good" is a "All or Nothing" negative thought pattern than is usually #1 or #2 on the list.

You do lose some memory to holding unnecessary code and whatever data caching that a module does. But it's not generally very much and large data caching can be pushed to Redis. If you're not buying your servers by the rack or d

You need to do additional steps in both cases: With modules you need some sort of wrapper application to bring it all together. With microservices you need some sort of network layer so that the microservices can talk to each other.

The problem is that most of these front end apps end up calling out to the server all the time. So you end up with essentially the same latency of SSR with the complexity of an application split across a HTTP boundary. I do think there

The problem with this is the energy required and then the heat you have to dump. I haven't penciled out the numbers but feels like at least a decade or two of model & gpu improvements to get anywhere close.

Sure, but when the order comes written down something would be wrong. Either you would have: 6,000 units @ $30 per unit Or 36,000 units @ $5 per unit You can't have: 6,000 units @ $5 per unit with the expectation that you're goin

This doesn't really make a lot of sense. How can bags be mistaken for cases when negotiating a deal? The price would be different by an order of magnitude. Why would orders trickle in like this if the product isn't getting shippe

I don't think you do. This falls under "irreconcilable differences" and the solution is for people to work at companies that match their preferences.

Ruby takes forever to start the application because it has to open all the files. 4-8 minutes IIRC before the first test would run in our Rails monolith on my M1 pro.

Looks like that goes to a dead cite but I can find similar numbers from the aluminum trade organization. They don't have an actual methodology that I can see but it's probably safe to assume they're cherry picking numbers.

Amazon handling recycling is not going to have any fewer problems than local governments doing it. The problem, ultimately, is that there's no way to responsibly extract value from recycling this sort of stuff. The choice is burying

Sure, but consumers use tiny amounts of metal that can be recycled. A can a day is like 10 pounds a year or about $4 worth of scrap. It borders on pointless and certainly is with the associated negatives of the way recycling is done today

I think it's become apparent that the whole recycling concept is misguided. There's just not enough economic value in these materials to justify the socialized cost. It's better to dump the waste into proper landfills. Ulti

It's not just that. There's complex rules around how frequently crews can work flights and how much time off they need. Delays can cause ripple effects as an hour delay can make an expected available crew unavailable. Then you
