Reminds me of a classic Finnish sketch. Don't worry, there are English subtitles.

Guy should slow it down with the withdrawals from Homie Equity Line Of Credit, Tesla is getting stampeded by the more established manufacturers left and right and I don't really see what he should be compensated for, apart from apparently trying to use the company as his personal piggy bank.

In the last few years they've lost the budget EV market to Chinese manufacturers despite BYD cars burning down like candles in a forest fire, conservative German manufacturers like Daimler have caught up in regards to autonomous driving and are making further progress, products are stuck in development hell etc. etc.

It's a really valid point to raise – what exactly has he done lately to deserve the payout? The situation in 2018 was a bit different, but the amount would've been well on the outrageous side even back when the stock was rocketing and the recent controversies weren't all yet a thing.

There are different versions for interior and exterior use, using different types of glue. At least OSB/0 and OSB/1 can be used for internal applications and are considered safe. Not that I would trust a landlord doing this to select the correct board type, especially since the safe variants might have some issues with the humidity exposure in a kitchen.

But there still are many cases for using OSB indoors, e.g. behind drywall to give it some more strength (instead of more expensive plywood). Wouldn't want to leave it exposed in a kitchen though, it'll get messy if it's not properly treated, and in the picture it doesn't seem to be.

Many do, for long term archival at least, but tape still has only 30 years lifespan and has other limitations. As an example, the media wears relatively quickly when in use, so if there's a need to access the data even relatively often optical media would make sense. That's often not an issue in archival though.

SEO is of course a problem, but it's been a problem for a long time, and there are ways around it for those who know how to seek information. Proper use of keywords, blacklisting sites with known spam information, searching specific sites, mandating specific words and phrases to be contained in the search etc. It's true, however, that information has become less discoverable during the latest decade – at least reliable information has.

While AI-written spam articles and such have been a pain sometimes, gatekeeping content is in my opinion as big of a threat to the proper use of search engines for finding information. As more and more sites require you to log in to view the discussion (social media is the worst offender here) much of the search results is unusable. Nowadays the results lead to a paywall or a login wall almost more often than to a proper result, and that makes them almost completely useless. I understand this kind of thing for platforms which pay for creating the content, e.g. news sites, but user-generated content shouldn't be locked behind a login requirement.

I fear the day StackOverflow and Reddit decide the users' discussions should be visible for only logged-in users. Reddit has already taken the first steps with limiting "NSFW" content to logged-in users only (on new reddit). Medium articles going behind paywall also caused some headaches a while back.

It's safe enough, in the Finnish army we occasionally get the tent heater red hot, and as long as nothing flammable touches it or is too close, it's fine. It will radiate heat quite well when that hot, but won't be anywhere close to dangerous if you know what you're doing. In the tent we of course have some water nearby to extinguish the possible flames but still.

You basically need to have it glowing red if you're to keep the tent warm in -15 °C or lower. - 30°C needs something closely resembling the picture posted.

Here's an example, unfortunately hosted on Reddit https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2Fjiquty6qz7s51.jpg%3Fwidth%3D1080%26crop%3Dsmart%26auto%3Dwebp%26s%3De4b8083400858eccc1786d7b32b94b759b2bc6c2

In Finland at least, and AFAIK most other European countries as well the law mandates drivers stop if they see a pedestrian about to cross the road. We have "intention to cross the road" buttons too, in some intersections with limited visibility or a lot of traffic – but by no means are you required to use them. From the looks of it crosswalks have the right of way in the US as well.

I can't really understand the assumption that people don't need to pay attention to the road because of some button. In a sensible legislation the driver is responsible for the accident even when the pedestrian is jaywalking unless they literally jump in front of the car from behind a bush or something. If the police rules you had a realistic chance to avoid the collision you, as the driver with a license meaning you've had the necessary tutoring, should be at fault.

Itse olen jo pidempään ollut sitä mieltä, että EU-tasolta pitäisi vain suoraan kieltää yksinoikeudet viihdealan sopimuksissa. Mikäli firma liisaa sarjan muille, sopimuksen ehdot tulee julkaista, ja samoilla ehdoilla tarjota sopimus kenelle tahansa. Omasta mielestä sama saisi päteä kaikkeen muuhunkin kaupankäyntiin, jos firma x saa tilattua palvelun hintaan y, firmalla z tulee olla oikeus samoihin sopimusehtoihin tai perusteluun siitä, miksi samat sopimusehdot eivät ole päteviä (pidempi asiakaskontakti, asiakas saa määräalennusta muista aiemmista kaupoista, tuotetta tai tuotantokapasiteettia on rajallisesti, tuote on asiakkaalle räätälöity). Tuo vähentäisi suurempien firmojen kykyä kilpailla uusia tulokkaita markkinoilta perusteettomilla alennuksilla, laillisillakaan sellaisilla, kun sopimusehdot tulisi julkaista.

Käytännössä tuo ei täysin ehkäisisi sisältöä yksinoikeudella, mutta tekisi sen niin kalliiksi, että sen harjoittaminen vastaavassa mittakaavassa olisi käytännössä mahdotonta (pitäisi maksaa niin suuri hinta, ettei kukaan muu voi tulla samalle apajalle enää)

Jos oikein pitkälle mennään, laittaisin huolella muitakin teesejä tekijänoikeuksiin, kuten

• huomattavasti lyhyempi tekijänoikeuden voimassaolo (oletus 10-20 vuotta, pidennettävissä 50 vuoteen aktiivisella hyödyntämisellä)
• velvollisuus luopua tekijänoikeudesta, mikäli ei halua käyttää resursseja ylläpitoon (esim. ohjelmistotalot pakotettaisiin vapauttamaan lähdekoodi julkiseen käyttöön, jos palvelu on ollut x-aikaa hylättynä tai firma nurin ilman jatkajaa)
• Yritysten tekijänoikeuden tasaaminen patenttien kanssa, eli voimassaoloaika vastaamaan patentteja ja yrityksen tekijänoikeuksien rekisteröinti viranomaiselle suojan saamiseksi

Poliittisesti mahdotonta, mutta aina voi haaveilla...

GitLab is Ruby at least, I don't immediately remember any others but there probably are some

Not an expert on this, but I'd assume one thing is that in 3-2-3 two people need to stand up and give way if the person in the window seat wants to stretch their legs or go to the toilet. 2-4-2 only one person has to get out of the way in all situations. Would guess that's actually somewhat important in widebodies since those are used on longer routes, and having to stand up twice as often in the aisle seat would be something of an inconvenience.

There's probably more, I'd guess that would also affect boarding times and so on, but this is the first thing that comes to mind.

A mercury arc rectifier. The mercury vapor is ionized, and used for increasing the current carrying capacity of the component – compared to how much a traditional valve design with complete vacuum would work.

In short, it makes DC out of AC.

And we've nowadays taken it even further, in spoken Finnish we've even got rid of the "hän" and mostly use "se", which is the Finnish word for "it". The same pronoun is used for people in all forms, animals, items, institutions and so on, and in practice the only case for "hän" is people trying to remind others they consider their pets human.

Context will tell which one it is.
