Welcome to the 1980s: SMTP is a best-effort, store-and-forward protocol - the fact that 90% of e-mail is delivered, that it's delivered near-instantly and that it's delivered directly(tm) to the destination server, now these are just accidental properties. In reality, there's no guarantee on any of these - there is even no guaranteed upper bound, e-mails can, in some cases, take weeks to be delivered.

TL;DR: e-mail sucks, do not depend on it.

That said, this seems to be the actual culprit: `softfail (google.com: domain of transitioning @gmail.com does not designate 2a04:c9c7:0:1073:217:a4ff:fe3b:e77c as permitted sender)`

Of course, this is an extreme example. Most of our front-end is able to serve quite complicated data within 500 milliseconds. Some queries are over a longer time-span (3 months, 0.7 million truck-movement-legs, +/- 200M links), so a 2 second wait-time (including a spinner) is sufficient.
'Web apps' are still irrelevant to the mainstream web user. Unless you think that Facebook counts as a 'web app'. Facebook is a great example of a website that very much feels like a website: it's full of hyperlinks.
> There is a reason the EU is a thing.

The problem with the EU is that they now have the goal of becoming the United States of Europe and eliminating national soverignty in most senses of the word. [1] This isn't good or bad just many EU officials statements of their goals. [1] However, it is something relatively new and not what the EU started out to be when a lot of members joined up. [2]

If the EU had said from the beginning, "we want to create a United States of Europe" and the people in each new member country had democratically voted for that we wouldn't be having a lot of the problems we have right now.

But its an assault on freedom to try to accumulate central power while decimating local democratic processes, especially for all the member states who did not join under such pretences.

It makes the affronts even more egregious when you realize EU citizens have little democratic control over the the European Commission and European Council which accounts for 2/3 of the European legislative body.

Whether you're for a United States of Europe or not these are issues we need to address if we want to make real progress in the EU.

> the UK is not leaching on the EU, by enjoying the benefits of these laws without contributing to the recurring enforcement costs.

IMHO attempting to punish the UK by refusing to cooperate with them when its mutually beneficial to both parties is not a route I'd like to see us take. In general economic terms, it will almost always be in the EUs interest to work with the UK and not against them. The EU enjoys the benefits of many laws in the USA and elsewhere, for instance that a subscriber to a service in California can use that service in Georgia. Still, it would be absurd to assume the EU should pay a price to help enforce that law.

A two dimensional projection of the space might imply too much distance between fields that are otherwise incredibly close; like vectors/versors/quaternions or combinatorics and with CS and optimization.

Maybe one could do an interactive version where the nodes can move in different dimensions like historic timeline, field of use, mathematical area.

Lava Fire Hose in Hawaii Returns for an Encore
As a counterpoint, I rather dislike self-checkout at grocery stores. It invariably ends up being a fight between "place item in bagging area" and "remove unknown item from bagging area".

No, you damn robot, I just want to use my goddamn cart. Please shut the everloving-hell up about it instead of making me fumble for some "skip bagging" button on a shitty resistive touchscreen that doesn't register half the time.

The only reason I bother with them is because the lines are shorter. Otherwise, I'd rather just go to a regular checkout line, with a checker who's way better at scanning items than I am and (depending on the store) a bagger who's way better at bagging than I am.
That's lean!

Also, one thing that's often forgotten is that roads take up space. A lot of it. You make your roads bigger to accommodate more people, and all of your buildings wind up farther apart as a result. When buildings are farther apart you have to drive farther, meaning that everyone's journeys are longer, meaning more traffic... and on and on it goes.

One question I have about the automated checkouts at my local supermarket is they seem to intentionally slow the user down. For example, if you go to pay and put in a card, it says 'please remove your card, press the -debit card- button, and pay with your card'

It seems like no reasonable person wouldn't notice this flaw, let alone the presumably several people involved in creating this software, so it leads me to believe that there is some reason the shops want to encourage not using these checkouts.

I wonder why?

To copy from another reply:
"I meant it would be convenient if there was some platform to maintain the licence contract chain so that a dual licenced project could use a third party dual licensed library, and the license fees would be forwarded to all license owning parties in a transparent manner."

I'm not claiming it would be a good idea. Just a thought.
> I also tend to buy items in bulk, like 2-liter bottles, and it's nice to say "I have 8 of these" and pass one to the cashier.

This is really not the case the self-checkout lines are designed for.

I use them almost exclusively for those cases where I duck in and grab a couple things quickly, and want to get the hell out. It's always faster and easier than even the 12-items-or-less express checkout line, not to mention the regular lines, where you get stuck behind somebody with a cart rounded to the sky and $400 worth of groceries in it.
There's one situation where I want a human checkout experience rather than a machine: when I have a stroller with a sleeping infant and bags strewn about its basket and the shopping precariously balanced on the hood because I didn't see where the shopping baskets were when we entered and a pre-schooler whining that we didn't pick up the magazine they really wanted.

In that situation, I really want someone else's help with scanning, paying for, and bagging everything. I imagine people with permanent impediments would also prefer human help.

Doesn't the authors argument go the other way: make labour cheap enough (with a guaranteed minimum income) that every patron can have a dedicated shopping assistant & the business can save money on expensive software and inflexible machines?
I kept my old 512GB Samsung 850 Pro, but will definitely get an nvme when I need more space/speed. Getting another 32 RAM will hold me over until I'll build a new one, so that part I'm not worried about.

I expect it could run faster yet by crunching the code up more and maybe removing objects altogether, but i made few changes as possible just to compare the difference in addressing.

There is also function "offsetMomentum" which tweaks the suns movement according to momentum of the planets, it seems very extraneous to me, gravitational influence should surely be sufficient in itself regarding conservation of momentum. I suspect that function is more likely a catch for large errors which can result from point grav bodies getting to close to each other.

The following reasons come to mind wrt RDBMS:

- When properly normalized, future modifications to the relational model will often be much simpler. Transforming hierarchical data stores or document-based ones often involves changing much of the code which calls the database

- Query optimizers are often performing work which is difficult to implement yourself.

- When properly called, query composition allows more computation to be done close to the data.

- Knowledge of RDBMs is widespread allowing a low barrier to entry (is also a huge disadvantage, since it brings inexperienced people to use a sophisticated tool, leading to overgeneralized bad press)

- Index management in relational model is often simpler and logical

- Many RDBMs have a proven track-record of stability, code quality and feature completeness. Take a look at PostgreSQL, for example: GIN / GIST / PostGIS / date-time / windowing functions / streaming results. Also, the extensibility of postgres is astonishing, the community is warm and welcoming to beginners.

Obviously, I could make a similar list of disadvantages of RDBMs. It's just my experience that the advantages mostly outweigh the disadvantages.

I really enjoyed this documentary when I saw it, and also ended up watching Bitter Lake and (half of) Century of the Self. The concepts were quite bold and the seemed nearly-self-evident. But then I asked myself, "so why am I just only now hearing about all this?" as a heuristic of the measure of the sufficient strength of supporting evidence.

It dawned upon me that some of the techniques of desire-manufacturing/advertising that used psychological techniques, as mentioned in Century of the Self, were also used to compel the viewer about the curated historical web of causality. And I really think that Hanlon's razor supplants to much of the powers that be mentioned movie.

I almost feel like this movie really displays the enouement of neoliberalism: nothing ever changes in this world any more (thus we're near "the end of history"), we're stuck in a massive deadlocked monetary system that has only "unrealistic" alternatives, "humanitarian interventions" in conflicts are necessary crusades and we cede that they may have the same power dynamics of imperial invasions but since they are done in the name of freedom and democracy they are to be absolved for their ambitions, and so on. I think that in that regard, the documentary falls short of exploring things that are subversive to hegemony.

I was unsatisfied with the idea of watching a powerful documentary about hypernormalisation without searching for a critical explanation of the hypernormalisation of the documentary maker, too. Here's one such:
That said, I did genuinely enjoy the movie and appreciate that it inspired me to reflect on modern history.
