China’s Oil Hoarding Clouds Outlook for Slowing Demand Growth - https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-12-11/china-oil... | https://archive.today/YLDHL - December 11th, 2025
> China’s oil demand growth is forecast to be 150,000 barrels a day next year, according to the median estimate in a Bloomberg survey of analysts. Energy Aspects was the most bullish, expecting daily growth at 320,000 barrels, mainly on rising petrochemical demand. Still, the prediction is a year-on-year drop.
> “It’s an irreversible path,” said Ye Lin, vice president of oil markets at consultancy Rystad Energy, which also forecasts demand growth falling in 2026. “The market is now feeling the impact of China’s fast-growing EV fleet.”
Rhodium Group: Electric Trucks and the Future of Chinese Oil Demand - https://rhg.com/research/electric-trucks-and-the-future-of-c... - July 1st, 2025
> Analysts have been discussing “peak oil” for decades. We’re hardly equipped to wade into that debate ourselves, even as Chinese demand will be a critical variable in future global oil demand. But the ongoing electrification of China’s vehicle fleet, especially in trucking, suggests long-term headwinds to diesel and gasoline demand. We estimate the total electric vehicle fleet is already displacing over 1 million barrels per day in implied oil demand—equivalent to roughly the daily oil production of Oman. That level is likely to rise by around 600,000 barrels per day over the next 12 months.
(TLDR At current electrification rates, China is destroying ~1M barrels/day of oil demand every 24 months)

> What is with people and their need for enums?
I mean, you have atomic and compound data types. Atomic ones represent single values, like "a string" or "an integer", and compound ones represent multiple atomic types combined in some way, like a struct or an enum. Enums are useful for the same reason structs are useful, they do the same core thing, just model it in a different way. It's the difference between "and" and "or", which are both useful tools.
Ironically, their long history of shutoff and censorship probably mean they're more resilient to stuff like this.
Another thing companies miss is that the second-value is priced in to the price. If I know I can resell a thing for some value, that makes it more valuable than if I can't resell it all, and I can pay more for it. Contrary to what the companies think, they were in fact compensated for the after market value, and it's even better then they hoped, because that compensation occurred at time of first sale rather than some random time years later.
The most amusing anti-example of this was the Switch generation: $60 for a cartridge, or $60 for a digital license. Guess which is actually more valuable? Guess which you were more likely to find discounted, even if only by a marginal amount, by some store desperate to move stock out of the way?
By contrast, I'm not worried about the fact I can't resell my copy of Game X I got on Steam when I only paid $5 for it in the first place.

Build quality of Bose products is good in my opinion. The headphones are alright but so are Sony, Plantronics and Apple. I love the sound of Airpods Pro in particular even if they don't want to stay in my ears [1] and the pairing experience even with the iPhone isn't what I expect of >$100 headphones in 2016.
If you want really good stereo or 5.1 sound there is no substitute for big speakers that can move a lot of air.

In fairness, the idea that you needed to scrape error strings to handle errors was a very popular complaint about Go that was valid 10 years ago, including in the standard library.
Heh, that's a very timely comment. I just drove up and down to Berlin through absolutely crap weather and still figured something out I'd been struggling with for weeks.

Thank you for taking the time to set this all down and in the way you did.
Yes, this is how it happened: good people standing by, doing nothing.
Do you think it's impossible to ever hold a tool incorrectly, or use a tool in a way that's suboptimal?
Note: the bad guys are incentivized to work for free, this would increase the problem considerably.
It's not the hardware getting cheaper, it's that LLMs were developed when we really didn't understand how they worked, and there is still some room to improve the implementations, particularly do more with less RAM... And that's everything from doing more with fewer weights to things like FP16, not to mention if you can 2x the speed you can get twice as much done with the same RAM and all the other parts.
Author is still early in their exploration and has some definite mistakes in here. Probably the biggest one is around the error handling, thinking that the only way to interact with an error is through the error interface itself. That is intended as a baseline interaction, a fallback for when nothing else is appropriate, such as just slamming an error into a log. If you want to interact with specific errors, you should use the various functions in the errors package [1] to check for specific types, and then use those specific types in whatever they support. Go error support is quite good; you can return an error object that says "The user was not found, the file the user was supposed to be found in was not found, and while trying to log this the log failed to accept the write" as various error types composed together, and any consumer of the error using the errors package can pick out the various bits of the error they understand using those tools without having to understand the error binding them together or the components it doesn't care about . You should never use string manipulation to check errors unless you have no choice, and whatever library left you with no choice should have an issue filed against it. It doesn't come up often, but it does sometimes come up; most recently I had the AWS SDK emitting an error I could only use string functions on, but I think they've since fixed it.
I don't like the term "enums" because of the overloading between simple integers that indicate something (the older, more traditional meaning) and using them to mean "sum types" when we have the perfectly sensible term "sum type" already, that doesn't conflict with the older meaning. If you want sum types, a better approach is to combine the sort of code structure defined here: https://appliedgo.net/spotlight/sum-types-in-go/ with a linter to enforce it https://github.com/alecthomas/go-check-sumtype , which is even better used as a component of golangci-lint: https://golangci-lint.run/
I'd also add my own warnings about reaching for sum types when they aren't necessary, in a language where they are not first class citizens: https://jerf.org/iri/post/2960/ but at the same time I'd also underline that I do use them when appropriate in my Go code, so it's not a warning to never use them. It's more a warning that sum types are not somehow Platonically ideal. They're tools, subject to cost/benefit analysis just like anything else.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyrion_Music_Server Lyrion Music Server (LMS) is a streaming audio server supported by the LMS community and formerly supported by Logitech, developed in particular to support their Squeezebox [discontinued in 2012] range of digital audio receivers.. [LMS] also works with networked music players, such as the Roku SoundBridge M1001, Chumby, O2 Joggler, RPi and the SqueezeAMP open source hardware player.
If the publish the API for the server, as well as allow the device to specify the API hostname to connect to, that's all I need. We can write our own server implementation fairly easily, and this saves us the hassle of having to reverse-engineer the API, plus makes setup much easier if we can just tell the device where to connect.
I wish more manufacturers would unlock their devices for local use when they don't want to support them any more. Or maybe even, hear me out, before support ends! Maybe we could even vote with our wallets and buy open stuff instead of walled gardens.
The article uses pandas as a demo example for LLM failures, but for some reason, even the latest LLMs are bad at data science code which is extremely counterintuitive. Opus 4.5 can write a EDA backbone but it's often too verbose for code that's intended for a Jupyter Notebook.
The issues have been less egregious than hallucinating an "index_value" column, though, so I'm suspect. Opus 4.5 still has been useful for data preprocessing, especially in cases where the input data is poorly structured/JSON.
This is a sweeping generalization based on a single "test" of three lines that is in no way representative.

The most critical determinant of the cost of things is "do you absolutely have to do this in a Western country by people who are legally entitled to work there, and even worse, in or near a major city?"
I don't have references, but I suspect that the people working in the TV factory do not find that the TVs are cheaper than finding a local plasterer. The TVs can be easily imported to the West from somewhere cheaper. The labour cannot, and there's an entire regulatory infrastructure dedicated to keeping such labour expensive. So you see price rises in all the labour-intensive non-exportable industries; trades, healthcare, education, law enforcement, hospitality, and so on. While anything that can be put on a boat gets comparably cheaper.

I think a lot of people assume Kubernetes must be a good Go example, because it's so big and successful. But it started life as a Java project and was ported into Go, and that shows in some of the architecture, Also, in general across all languages, picking the absolute largest projects you can is often not a great idea in terms of copying design unless you too are going to be that large, e.g., I wouldn't suggest using Firefox as an example of C++ necessarily. Such projects always end up developing solutions to problems you will never have, and solving problems we don't have is one of the most common mistakes software developers make.

We are idiots who will bear the consequences of our own idiocy. The big issue with all transactions done under significant information asymmetry is moral hazard. The person performing the service has far less incentive to ensure a good outcome past the conclusion of the transaction than the person who lives with the outcome.
Applies doubly now that many health care interactions are transactional and you won't even see the same doctor again.
On a systemic level, the likely outcome is just that people who manage their health better will survive, while people who don't will die. Evolution in action. Managing your health means paying attention when something is wrong and seeking out the right specialist to fix it, while also discarding specialists who won't help you fix it.

The EU in general does have a bit more of a track record of doing domestic spying, but that's balanced out by Germany being very conservative about putting it under legal framework due to remembering the Stasi. The EU and ECHR in general are postwar experiments in constraining the powers of the state for good.
In practice .. for a lot of people, including a lot of Americans, the Chinese surveillance threat is a lot less immediate and a lot less likely to result in negative consequences for them personally than the US one. (Important exception: overseas Chinese! The extraterritorial police stations are really quite alarming)
If the war with Denmark goes hot, then the US companies become an extreme national security threat very quickly.
Underlying this are two serious questions which a lot of military forces probably had to remind themselves of after 2022's invasion of Ukraine:
- how do you tell when a threat is real or bluster? Especially from a speaker who makes blustering threats all the time
- how do you tell when a war has gone hot, without too much of a risk of false positives or negatives? (see also Stanislav Petrov)

> race condition in unsafe logic that interacts with DMA
It's worth noting that if you write memory safe code but mis-program a DMA transfer, or trigger a bug in a PCIe device, it's possible for the hardware to give you memory-safety problems by splatting invalid data over a region that's supposed to contain something else.
Detail in there: during winter, UK livestock are sometimes fed silage, which is grass that has been harvested during the summer and partially fermented. UK is majority local production, but there's significant imports from Ireland.
People talk a lot about water and land use, but if you have the conditions of land that is (a) naturally watered and (b) not flat enough for arable farming, using it for livestock is much more environmentally friendly than, say, feeding them imported soy - leaving only the methane problem.
I'm also criticizing you for not hiring the laid-off people at their former salary.

Or maybe ask yourself why are you doing open source in the first place?
AI training on your code is success if you care about your code being genuinely helpful to others. It's a problem only if you're trying to make money or personal reputation, and abusing open source as a vector for it.
> Do you really believe that a hostile group would have difficulty finding important infrastructure to attack without an open infrastructure map?
I honestly do. A large part of what protects open, free societies is that the smartest people generally have better things to do than blowing shit up. If you’ve ever taken a close look at any heavy infrastructure, it should strike you how easy it would be to break into and disable (particularly if you aren’t concerned about getting caught).
On the balance, I still prefer these data being open. But there probably is a domestic-terrorism risk that’s amplified.
> Their moat in the consumer world is the branding and the fact open ai has 'memory' which you can't migrate to another provider
This sounds like first-mover advantage more than a moat.
Those stereotypes look more like misconceptions (to put it charitably). Vibe coding doesn't mean one doesn't care about software working correctly, it only means not caring about how the code looks.

Searching for panadaria, bocadillos across random places on Google Maps gives me plenty results.
To me it appears those are somehow related to what I mentioned on my comment, "Those that only sell bread and nothing else, are very few and slowly going away."
On the other side of the border, most of those bakeries survive in small villages with an aging population, and have been wipedout by pasteleria/panaderia businesses in towns and cities.

I have a couple store brand cards backed by Chase (like the Amazon one) and they are basically exactly like any other first party Chase card. They show up on the Chase dashboard. You call Chase customer service for issues. Payments happen through Chase. The card benefits are all provided by Chase. The only difference is that there's Amazon printed in front and the points the card earns aren't regular Chase points. Of course their relationship with Apple could be different, but I doubt it'll be anything like the Goldman one. Remember that Goldman didn't have a consumer business at all before they got into the partnership.
One of my favorite Firefox bugs was some I don’t quite remember the details of, but went something like this:
“There’s a crash while using this config file.” Something more complex than that, but ultimately a crash of some kind.
Years later, like 20 years later, the bug was closed. You see, they re-wrote the config parser in Rust, and now this is fixed.”
That’s cool but it’s not the part I remember. The part I always think about is, imagine responding to the bug right after it was opened with “sorry, we need to go off and write our own programming language before this bug is fixed. Don’t worry, we’ll be back, it’s just gonna take some time.”
Nobody would believe you. But yet, it’s what happened.
Kinda funny.
Back in 2000 I was at Wegmans and was offended when the head security guard followed my freaky hippie friend around so after that I started to mess with him. Like I noticed he had a spot where he liked to stand and surveil people going in and out of the store and I would stand in his spot so he couldn't have it, or I would conspicuously follow him around the store.
I signed up for an enumerator job at the US Census and a bunch of us turned up at the workforce development office where we were administered something like an IQ test. I disagreed but I remembered someone saying "the questions are so hard!"
They called me up and offered me a supervisor position which I didn't take because it seemed like a tiny amount of extra money for a lot more trouble. I got called back maybe a week later with an offer of a regular position which I took.
I show up for work and my supervisor was... the head security guard from Wegmans! He turned out to be a pretty nice guy and liked working for him!
The job had plenty of other misadventures like the way we had a plan for counting homeless people that you thought would have worked but we actually found zero homeless people (funny I would see them everywhere if I wasn't wearing my enumerator badge) Or how a woman who was working with us figured out we could save many hours of work by buying $20 worth of stickers, something there was no budget for but we decided there was nothing wrong with her just billing another 2 hours. Or how the students at the black living center mostly didn't fill out their census forms but instead of pestering them to fill them out we got a printout of all the students from the bursar's office that didn't have race on it and sent it on to the processing center -- so blacks got undercounted.
The comment you are responding to said their revenue is down 80%. So they did monetize training and services, and I don't see how that would have been a problem long term if AI didn't come along and make all of that unnecessary.

I think the officer moved to go towards the driver-side window, the driver then turned the wheel (past the officer, you can see the wheels turn to avoid him) to escape, the officer drew his weapon and shot her as she was leaving.

AI has some of the most stupidly high rates of return on effort and energy used out of all modern inventions, so I'm not sure what your point is.
while accelerating the vehicle quickly with an officer standing in front of her vehicle
This is false. He started drawing his gun while she was still in reverse (to turn and drive away) and was not 'in front of the vehicle' but approaching the front left of the vehicle. Nor was she 'accelerating the vehicle quickly.' You are simply being untruthful.
Frankly, with multiple masked goons pulling weapons approaching, any evasive/defensive maneuvers would have been fully justified.
Correct. More specifically, your upper middle class neighbors whose incomes have grown far more than middle earners over the past few decades: https://marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolution/2018/03/cb...
The people responsible for the cost crunch middle class people feel isn’t billionaires. Bezos isn’t using his money to buy up houses or daycare spots in your neighborhood or Disney Word tickets. It’s upper quantile white collar workers. They are competing with the middle class for the same goods and services, but make much more money relatively than they did in past decades.
That's what's beautiful about this scheme: people with attitude you presented would self-select out of it.
That solves half of the problem of typical work dynamics already; the second half, preventing unqualified morons from getting in and setting themselves up for life by being paid good money for doing nothing, would need to be solved in some other way.
Interestingly, ~12% of humans in the US are responsible for ~50% of beef consumption.
> The US is the biggest consumer of beef in the world, but, according to new research, it’s actually a small percentage of people who are doing most of the eating. A recent study shows that on any given day, just 12% of people in the US account for half of all beef consumed in the US.
> Men and people between the ages of 50 and 65 were more likely to be in what the researchers dubbed as “disproportionate beef eaters”, defined as those who, based on a recommended daily 2,200 calorie-diet, eat more than four ounces – the rough equivalent of more than one hamburger – daily. The study analyzed one-day dietary snapshots from over 10,000 US adults over a four-year period. White people were among those more likely to eat more beef, compared with other racial and ethnic groups like Black and Asian Americans. Older adults, college graduates, and those who looked up MyPlate, the US Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) online nutritional educational campaign, were far less likely to consume a disproportionate amount of beef.

> Rich investors and companies effectively get to buy homes at a discount vs average joes.
Suppose you had $100,000 in cash, and buy a house for $100,000. You'll not be paying 5% interest on a mortgage. But if you did not buy the house, you would be investing that $100,000 for a 5% return.
So, you're either paying 5% on the mortgage, or foregoing 5% return for investing that money.
The rich person is not getting a discount.

LLMs themselves are the coffin for most apps, because by its very nature, AI subsumes products.
UX is not going to be a prime motivator, because the product itself is the very thing that stands between user and the thing they want. UX-wise, for most software, it's better for users to have all these products to be reduced to tool calls for AI agents, accessible via a single interface.
The very concept of product itself is limiting users to interactions allowed by the product vendor[0] - meanwhile, used as tools for AI agents allows them to be combined in ways user need[1].
--
[0] - Something that, thanks to move to the web and switching data exchange model from "saving files" to "sharing documents", became the way for SaaS businesses to make money by taking user data hostage - a raison d'être for many products. AI integration threatens that.

> I am really confused with the fights around gender of the last 5 years. As a doctor I have a solid grasp of the five dimensions of gender (genital organs, genetic, social, psychological and legal). So there can be 2^5 = 32 genders
Biological sex has multiple dimensions, ascribed gender (which is social, and of which legal gender is one of many forms) has a number of dimensions per form that depends on the particular social milieu, gender identity (which is a mix of social and psychological) has multiple dimensions that vary, again, at least by social milieu, and many of the dimensions involved are not strict binaries. So both the base and exponent in your formula are unjustified.
