I'm curious if there's a reason why or how Tesla tend to build 10+ stations per location while EA/EVgo tend to only do 4 most of the time. I still need to wait a lot of times at EA/EVgo locations.


If Tesla charging sucks, people don't buy Teslas.

If EA charging sucks... well there's pretty much nothing you can do about it.


It’s already here: openSUSE Kalpa. Daily driving it!


Well, I, for one, am Taiwanese and happy to see it happen. We also did legalize gay marriage (albeit unfortunately through a special law instead of fixing the civil laws).


My bike has keyless ignition. Definitely one of my favorite thing on that bike!


I wrote a program to fetch lyrics from some websites and then got approached by someone who has license to actually use the lyrics but they don’t have it in digital form so they asked to purchase my app.

Ended up working with them and later moved to a startup that also worked with them. For a college student, being able to work as one of the two engineers was great, system architecture, distributed queue, networking setup, everything is yours to do and learn. It was also a Mac OS X / Objective-C shop so learned a lot of obscure debugging techniques because there’s just not that many info available for OS X as servers. (We made web photo album editor and print it out for our users, OS X had the best PDF engine for free.)

Moved to the US from Taiwan later, the knowledge I’ve accumulated helped me passed my interview at Twitter and things went from there. I would never imagine a tiny app would lead me into a career!



I've seen a kernel panic on G1000 once, does not feel like a Linux (unless they also heavily modified the panic handler)


Ooo, what did it look like? A Mach kernel oops (aka "just start painting text from the top-left"), a BSOD (more structured), a dialog box over the top, or...?

Also what info was printed? An inscrutable Guru Meditation, a register dump, or...?

Just idly fascinated to figure out how much info would be dumped by a piece of avionics running in end-user production mode.


lol yeah, I was very sad that I forgot to take a pic but it's black and white, text on top-left and it's just a register dump.


I went on a bit of a rabbithole trying to look for firmware downloads for the G1000 to run `strings` on but sadly they're not publicly available anywhere.

But I'm very happy to be able to say that you don't need to be sad you didn't get a photo anymore because I found https://mooneyspace.com/topic/21333-g1000-pfd-start-up-error... :D

No amount of quote-googling got me any further though, which was why I went firmware hunting. Now at least I have a good conversation starter for anyone who looks like they might have a dealer account next time I'm at a hangar though...


Agree that it’s expensive and the range sucks, but I still love my Energica EVA Ribelle. It’s super satisfying to ride!

So far the furthest I’ve ridden is from Bay Area to Big Sur and back, which needs to fast charge like 2 times each way.


I love my Eva Ribelle as well! I'm envious that you get to ride it around in the mountains in CA. I'm thinking about hauling mine out to the tail of the dragon at some point, but that's a still a long journey for me.


I'm a little jealous you have that bike. I did a test ride of it about a year ago and loved it. Sadly, as I said in another comment, I don't want a chain or belt drive bike. But, the EVA Ribelle is almost perfect.


Author here. Surprised to see this website made it on to Hacker News

Glad to see some debates on the vocabs listed there:

* Yes, it is very IT oriented.

* Yes, I have been in some academic environment. (but seriously, 文本 is rarely heard in my life!)

* No, it is not supposed to be an exhaustive list of all things wrong nor _the_ correct list.

At the end of day, it is a short list of what I'd like to see it changed and thus I tracked it. We may not all agree on the translations, but I think we can agree on 1/55 is a pretty sad score to have.

Lastly, feel free to fork and run your copy if you'd like a different set of words / translations to be tracked!

Thanks for my 5 mins fame on HN!


My car key's battery suddenly gives out mid-drive once and I had to listen to a warning tone every few minutes but at least it got me home. It would be incredibly frustrating if the car just decided that it doesn't see the key and shuts it off.

It also breaks the backup mechanism for no-battery situation where you can tap the fob on where the ignition lock would be for key cars to start it up.
