Same as what it did in the original Tesla cars. They only removed the stalks recently.

Tesla should take inspiration from this and at least bring back the physical gear shifter and the turn signal stalks.

Are Experian, Transunion and Equifax included in the one-click deletion?

that tends to get in the way of complex error handling.

Agree. In Java, Streams allow you to process collections in a functional style. This feature enables concise, expressive data manipulation with operations like map, filter, and reduce.

Some people point out that Java's checked exceptions spoil the simplicity and elegance of Streams by forcing you to handle exceptions.

But that's not a reason to not have checked exceptions, it is a reason to not do functional style composition when methods can throw exceptions. Streams was invented for collections, which tend not to throw exceptions. If proper error handling is important don't do Streams.

How is this different from using a small aperture size?

When you reduce aperture size the depth of field increases. So for example when you use f/16 pretty much everything from a few feet to infinity is in focus.

You don't need a large framework to build a maintainable, efficient web app. Here's an example: https://github.com/wisercoder/eureka/tree/master/webapp

It uses two 500-line libraries:

This 500-line lib lets you use TSX syntax without React: https://github.com/wisercoder/uibuilder

This 500-line lib implements MVC routing: https://github.com/wisercoder/mvc-router

That may be true if you're looking at all windows computers in existence. If you look at new laptops being sold you see different numbers. As of 2025, Arm processors hold about 13% to 20% of the market share for new Windows laptops. This is important because these are the people who are more likely to download and install your software.

It is 18% according to this story: https://www.tomshardware.com/laptops/projections-show-that-a...

Ubiquity is pretty important when you're going to invest in learning a new editor. This is one of the advantages of vim for example. It is available everywhere... linux, windows, terminal, gui, etc.

That's an interesting take. For whatever reason, frame rate is not one of my complaints about existing editors such as Emacs, VS Code, etc.

I watched the video on the home page and thought it is weird that they spend an inordinate amount of time on frame rate. Who picks an editor based on frame rate?

If you want to talk about perf in the context of a text editor show me how big of a file you can load--especially if the file has no line breaks. Emacs has trouble here. If you load a minified js file it slows to a crawl especially if syntax highlighting is on. Also show me how fast the start up time is. This is another area where Emacs does not do well.

So Zed is available on Windows--but only if you have a x64 processor. Lots of people run Windows on Arm64 and I don't see any mention of Arm64. This is where the puck is heading.

Also noticed Emacs key binding is in beta still.

They should not have revealed these details... now criminals know how to avoid the same fate.

Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman has bragged he had Jared Kushner "in his pocket." Oil-producing middle-eastern countries, having made significant contributions to Trump family's wealth, have enormous influence over him. If you were the ruler of an oil-producing country and have enormous influence over Trump, what would you have him do for your country?

If it was me, this is what I would have him do: Pull out of the Paris climate accord, cancel renewable energy projects, cancel EV tax credits. Trump has done all that.

In fact Trump went a step further:

Trump is using tariffs to pressure other countries to relax their pledges to fight climate change and instead burn more oil, gas and coal. See: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/27/climate/trump-internation...

They should have tried the negligence angle. Why did the police make this mistake? Somebody didn't do their job correctly. The city is responsible for that.

Robotics has catapulted Beijing into a dominant position in many industries, especially ones involving renewable energy. Meanwhile in the US we are shutting down renewable energy projects (presumably to please middle-east benefactors), and Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick wants to bring jobs to the US that involve putting screws into phones.

Well, the Saudis gave Trump more than Musk, and they are no fans of this "renewable energy" BS. Petroleum is the way to go.

That's with today's system not the proposed system.

Notice what they said: This year's peace prize is being given to someone for transitioning a country from dictatorship to democracy. They sure as hell aren't going to give it to someone doing the opposite!

The problem is that patients are usually not in a position to determine if the care the doctor says is needed is really needed or not. This is the same as taking your out-of-warranty car to the mechanic. How do you know if the mechanic is telling the truth?

Still, this would be better than the current system. Even when you don't know if the doctor is telling the truth you can go by their reputation for telling the truth. Reputations will matter more, and doctors will care about maintaining their reputations in their community.

They try to convince you that you're fine and don't need any treatment.

where people are somehow expected to rewrite all their code from scratch every couple of years or so

You don't need React for this. Vanilla JS is all you need, along with JSX and Web Components. If you are wondering how maintainable that would be see this example: https://github.com/wisercoder/eureka/tree/master/webapp/Clie...

I am a current TiVo customer, and this is sad news. I use TiVo to record over-the-air TV transmission. TiVo software is great, it is the only usable UI these days. Compare it to Google TV for example. TiVo's UI is mostly text and some images, while Google TV is mostly images and some text which I find unusable.

He's starting wars in Portland, Los Angeles, and Chicago. Trump told the military last week, "This is going to be a major part for some of the people in this room. That's a war too. It's a war from within."

That's very cool... but it is for a different reason ("Aspirin disrupts the platelets and removes their influence over the T-cells so they can hunt out the cancer.") I am curious whether aspirin also helps in another way: by reducing inflammation.

Combined with React Hooks (which replaced stateful classes with functional composition), the ecosystem shifted decisively toward FP.

React is the farthest thing from functional, see here: https://mckoder.medium.com/why-react-is-not-functional-b1ed1...

Composition in React Hooks is closer to multiple inheritance in C++ (because it combines state and behavior from multiple components) than functional programming.

Would it be accurate to say enteric coated baby aspirin reduces risk of stroke due to its blood thinning properties, but since it is anti-inflammatory, also reduces risk of atherosclerosis and now cancer?

You are absolutely right and it makes sense to start with a spreadsheet. As I said elsewhere, you have to reach a pain threshold in order to look for alternatives to Excel. And how soon you reach the pain threshold depends on how big your data is and how many users are trying to modify the same data at the same time.
