Do you have any sources for that claim. Because the big 3 are CATL, LG, BYD. Panasonic is the only notable Japanese supplier but it's trending down fast.

PHEV sounds like best of both world on paper but actually worst of both worlds in reality. You are hauling a massive dead weight. Very little useful space inside. Most of them don't make past 10yrs due to the cost of complex system and

Maybe someone more knowledgable with music theory can chime in, but the generated tunes sounds off to me. Bit like a render in the uncanny valley. Something is wrong but I can't put my finger on it.

Japanese auto completely missed the memo on software. Many of them won't make the ev transition. It's hard to imagine what Japanese economy is going to be like once their auto industry is gutted.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one that felt Langchain had a ton of redundant abstractions engineered to gain clout for vc money. Here is an example: AnalyzeDocumentChain[1] just wraps RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter[2]. It serves no r

I think this is a tempting solution but a bad idea in the long run. Just like how employer provided medical insurance sounds good on the surface, but it gave employers an incentive to lobby against socialized medicine, which reduces worker

Twitter has nothing to gain from this. Someone smarter could better game the algorithm while Elon's "hardcore" team is still clueless.

Using generators to control animation flow is genius. Having used Remotion a bit it's heavily dependent on current frame count in complex animations. Generators is a more elegant solution.

State of art AI is progressing in that direction but we are still years away from creating a fleshed out world from prompt. Zuck funneled billions intro VR chart/Unity clone with little to show. It was too early.

Prompt based world building is going to be the killer app for VR. Zuck was too early.

Swift is backed by LLVM and Linux solid is pretty solid. The cross platform problem has always been the core libraries. Fortunately a pure Swift core foundation rewrite is underway. https://www.swift.org/blog/future-of-

If you are a self-made billionaire you should be allowed to be a little narcissistic. But seriously this is more like a sign of panic. This quarterly numbers is going to be bad.

There are different types of corruption. Access and speed money actually boosts development like a steroid. Just like a steroid you reap the benefit early but eventually it becomes corrosive. You can hide a lot of problem as long as the gro

I find for PM roles location is much more important than technical IC roles. Living in a "non-tech" city might be your biggest handicap.

Lol sorry it came across that way. Not trying to be dismissive - simplify speaking from experience after working on several similar products in the past decade. The drag and drop editing experience is core to everything and you can't o

Canva has many subtle behaviors, such as how it clips and pan photos, snapping and alignment. If you want to build something comparable I would recommend ditch fabricjs and roll your own. Just need to brush up on matrix transform and vector
