According to the posted article, Toyota does have plans to offer several all-electric models in 3 years (in 2025). My main takeaway from what Toyoda said was Toyota's goal to offer as many options as possible to its customers - this includes ICE, hybrids, BEV, and hydrogen cars. What Toyota is refusing is letting go of developing all other types of vehicles and focusing only on BEV, which is fair imo.


1 USD = 3.6 AED

Also, the article states that the offer was for $16,000 in equivalent local currency, so ~AED60,000.


The OP (javascript.info) and Eloquent Javascript go great together - I used these two together all the time. Eloquent Javascript is great for deep dives into select topics and is well-written. OP is great as a reference guide while you're writing code.

Are the monitor and purifier one device or two separate devices?


Two separate devices. I have the Awair air quality monitor and a Coway air purifier.


How The Economic Machine Works by Ray Dalio comes to mind. It's 31 minutes long and provides a great high-level overview of basic economic principles.

This was my go-to video to put me to sleep, but it has sound effects and I found other videos. The two others are Clayton Christensen's talk at Google, and John Danaher's appearance on the Lex Fridman podcast. These two are just amazing as the dynamic range of everyone's voice is so narrow. They don't have ups and downs. Their voice is rather monotonic and soothing. I'm asleep in less than 5 minutes. I know because I remember the topic I slept to, and diff it with the topic I haven't listened to.

I also listen to old tool restauration videos/CNC/industrial sounds as they put me to sleep as fast if I haven't booked a hotel room on the first floor of a hotel that gives to a busy city street at peak time, or at a specific place that overlooks a mechanic shop with pneumatic tools during work hours. I can't control traffic or people's work hours, so these videos are the closest I got to reproducible, predictable, on-demand sleep.

Thank you, jorgesborges. I will try it.


Curious to know, how did you manage to get to an advertising free life?


No TV, big sticker saying 'no print advertising' on my mailbox, adblocked and jsblocked to the hilt on all computers in the house (I see that as a sanity and a security bonus as well), no physical newspaper. It's as good as clean now, every now and then something slips through and then my first response usually is 'surely people can't be that stupid'.


It sounds like the steps are pretty simple. I live in the suburbs of a US city, and billboards are banned, so unless I go into the city proper (a few times a year) I hardly ever see advertisements.

1) move to the countryside or at least outside a major city, or a place where billboards are banned

2) Don’t own a TV

3) use uBlock Origin/Adblock on all your devices


When I first started getting in better health and shape years ago, two resources helped me learn, provide structure, and form habits. One is a lengthy blog post and the other one is a popular book. Both are simple and accessible in their approach.

Love the minimalist execution. Personally, I consider your tool having no user-facing options a plus (less decision making for me and excitement from complete randomness). I just set one of the wallpapers as my desktop background. Thank you
