A lawn service that is working 8-10 hours a day can't use battery tools unless they buy a lot of batteries and/or have a way to recharge them in the field (from a gasoline-powered generator, most likely). So their complaint has some validity.

BS. Gasoline is just more convenient and cheaper for them. 40V batteries last long enough that you only need a handful of them to last a whole day.
senorrib commented on Helsinki records zero traffic deaths for full year   helsinkitimes.fi/finland/... · Posted by u/DaveZale

Maybe Helsinki isn’t special: just fewer cars. And they apparently only 21% of daily trips used a private car.

Helsinki has about 3x fewer vehicles per capita than the average U.S. city. So it’s not surprising it’s safer since fewer cars mean fewer chances of getting hit by one. Plus their cars are much smaller.

In fact, there are probably plenty of U.S. towns and cities with similar number of cars that have zero traffic deaths (quick search says that Jersey City, New Jersey has zero traffic deaths in 2022).

So maybe it’s not about urban planning genius or Scandinavian magic. Maybe it’s just: fewer things that can kill you on the road.

I wonder how the numbers will change when majority of cars are autonomous.

Interesting how you provided a counter example for the “Scandinavian genious” hypothesis and all comments are simply deflecting that and restating unrelated stats.

The only bounds that are checked is the overall size of the linear memory block, there is no bounds checking inside the same segment.

Which is exactly the point made by GP.

So do self-driving trains, or drone aircraft. The problem stands.

What problem? What’s your point, if you have one at all?

Same reason you don't actually have self-driving cars: liability.
senorrib · a month ago
Self driving cars do exist and operate every single day.

senorrib commented on Show HN: Petrichor – a free, open-source, offline music player for macOS   github.com/kushalpandya/P... · Posted by u/kushalpandya

The most issues I encounter with music players are related to my situation of NAS. My NAS is straightforward: I just connect a RAID to a Mac and share it, then let other Macs connect to this "server". This allows me to access it in Finder like any other directory. However, this setup presents two obvious problems for many players: First, since the directory is not always available (if I'm not at home), some players cannot properly handle the issue of the main directory not existing. Second, I need to easily synchronise playlists across different computers, but many players do not support saving playlists as files, specifying their save location onto NAS, and configuring themselves to read playlists from NAS. These issues have been causing me a great deal of frustration. Currently I use VOX, which is a fairly acceptable option. I hope I can find a better solution.

My setup uses Jellyfin, Finer and Tailscale. I can access all my music even out of home and playlists/metadata are synced across all devices.

>> * Globally distributed >Non-requirement?

It is a requirement because you can't find GPUs in a single region reliably and Kubernetes doesn't run on multiple regions.

>> * Tailnet as the default network stack

> That would probably be the first thing I look to rip out if I ever was to use that.

This is fair, we find it very useful because it easily scales cross clouds and even bridges them locally. It was the simplest solution we could implement to get those properties, but in no way would we need to be married to it.

>> * Multi-tenant from the ground up

> How would this be any different from kubernetes?

Kuberentes is deeply not multi-tenant, anyone who has tried to make a multi-tenant solution over kube has dealt with this. I've done it at multiple companies now, its a mess.

>> * Bittorrent as the default storage stack

> Might be interesting, unless you also mean seeding public container images. Egress traffic is crazy expensive.

Yeah egress cost is a concern here, but its lazy so you don't pay for it unless you need it. This seemed like the lightest solution to sync data when you do live migrations cross cloud. For instance, I need to move my dataset and ML model to another cloud, or just replicate it there.

How so? You can definitely use annotations in nodes and provision them in different regions.
