> Brakes Maybe at 1/10 the schedule of ICE vehicles, at least for me. I use regenerative braking almost exclusively (probably 95+% of the time). > coolant Yes, I did forget about that one. …

One thing this article doesn’t cover (but probably should): shoveling snow has a fairly high risk of heart attacks (especially past 50): https://newsroom.heart.org/news/snow-shove…

> and am familiar with which items are common to an EV. This is the overestimating I was referring to. I think you’re either mistaken in what items are common to EV, or you’re overestimating the …

> I think you also might be overestimating what the average ICE owner has to take care of. > Most Americans don’t keep a car long enough to even pay it off - they’re in an endless loop of tra…

1. Maintenance isn’t just about cost. It’s about the number of things that move and/or need fluids, and can fail/leak. It’s about dealing with service centers trying to upsell you on every l…

> Mine gets a 40-45 mile all electric range. That sounds like the real issue, vs. EVs. This sounds like you basically have to plug it in every time you park it. And there’s no way you could do an…

It’s funny how I spend so much time on HN, yet couldn’t point out a single username (that I don’t know IRL) besides dang. This is one reason I feel an odd disconnect (anonymity?) with HN that isn’t fe…

It seemed implied by: > Then I realized I could even skip that. It would make sense that you weren’t injuring yourself prior to realizing this. Again, implied. But agreed, you didn’t say it.…

Are gyro controls broken? This would be prefect for iPhone gyro controls, but I’m not getting it to work. Edit: never mind, the permissions are broken: https://news.ycombinator.com/ite…

> But I feel the exact same about cheeseburgers. The problem with analogies to things like cheeseburgers, gambling, drugs, cigarettes, etc., is: 1. Availability -- you have to go somewhere to acqui…

I think AI is going to level the playing field with all these bots that have been used for things like this (including scalpers for those low supply/high demand items), and retailers will (hopefu…

The whole world would be a better place if all of these disappeared. (Add to this YouTube Shorts.)

HN rarely (never?) attributes authors in the titles of articles. Why should we make an exception in this case?

To be clear, I'm not hating on Wikipedia, just their (IMO) overly-strong push for donations. The first word in my OP was "Except", and that was genuine -- I agree with the parent post, …

Not to mention a (potentially illegal?) 100% overlay for cookies that only has an “accept” button. EDIT: there is at least a way to reject them by clicking the link to manage cookies. Still debatable …

Except for their unnecessarily incessant fund raising. There’s zero reason it should happen that often, and that intrusively.

I’ll be curious to see how true this turns out to be. I stopped visiting SO frequently years ago, even before LLMs. But I still visit Wikipedia. I often just want to read about X, vs. asking AI questi…

> but also navigation and accessibility Counterpoint, HN is notoriously hard to use on mobile (still better than some, but it's clearly designed for desktop, and not super responsive). But agr…

> everyone can tell and it looks generic when AI is used For now. I feel like the gap continues to close with each release, and it's only a matter of time before it becomes indistinguishable.…

Why both? Just go back to beef tallow fries. Even if it’s more expensive, the marketing could bring back more customers. Worst case, they could increase the cost, and people would probably still pay i…

I was in the market for a new MBP (still on my 2015 MBP). After all of these articles and reports of how terrible Tahoe is, I’m holding off. I’m hoping they’ll wake up and fix this with the next relea…

I think the argument is that they shouldn't be opt-out, but opt-in. If I want to play a game and provide my feedback, the default should be that that doesn't happen unless I explicitly say i…

Why not just link to the repo directly? That post only has one comment. Here’s the repo (to save everyone a click): https://github.com/auracast-research/race-toolkit …

Technically, gas != tiny solid particles. So, no, you’re not inhaling actual particles.

IANAD, but that sounds like clinical mysophobia (germaphobia). No judgement — I’m sure COVID has done this to many people. But if it’s causing you anxiety or other stress, it may be worth considering …

I feel like the comments/articles that continue to point out how LLMs cannot solve complex problems are missing a few important points: 1. LLMs are only getting better from here. With each releas…
