What dynamism? An exception hierarchy just requires a type hierarchy, and Rust has enough inheritance for that. Rust has some dynamic dispatch, although it's not clear if the mechanism for trait objects [1] can implement an exception hierarchy cleanly.

A WITH clause mechanism implies no dynamism.

Please be more specific with your complaints. Thanks.

Any high-order functions, TCO? Is there an implementation of Everything Is An Expression and Everything Is A First-class Value principles? Type-tagging, which implements Values Has A Type, Not Variables principle, which gives The Numerical Tower and other nice things for free? Proper lexical scoping based on Environments which makes every lambda a closure? I am not asking about homogeneity and the possibility of the First-class Macros it provides.

No? So what then makes it Lisp-flavored? CONS CAR CDR and parentheses?

I recently discovered Ecosia (ecosia.org). Seems to use results from Bing, maps from Google, and has an easy 'out' to show results from Google.

Nice 'hook' as well. From their About Us page: 'Ecosia is a social business run by a small group of dedicated people. We work together to create tools that empower everyone to easily do good by planting trees. We believe our trees have the power to make this world a better place for everyone in it.'

That's not quite the same — there's no relationship between you voluntarily paying more on your taxes and tax rates. If we agree that tax revenue is too low, then yeah, you're doing a bad thing by not paying more.

Here's a better analogy still. Candidate X won a recent election, and you voted for them. If we agree that we knew that candidate was bad before the election, then you, individually, did a bad thing! No one person's vote decides an election, but the fact that millions of other people voted for the same candidate doesn't absolve you of your role in electing them.
That sounds like a great place to grow up! I'll put this on my list of places to visit for whenever I have (a fair amount of) spare cash again. :-) I've yet to be in WA so should definitely do it at one stage.
PHP, Nodejs, Go are languages and have communities that prefer libraries (not exclusively). First it needs a language with batteries included, so the language offers already so many features out of the box.

It's great not to have to worry about frameworks, that often last just for a few years, than you have to rewrite or migrate to a newer partly incompatible version.
When I was a child this is how I thought solar panels would look in the future. These look much nicer, and I imagine will help win over those who are very concerned about curb appeal.
The perceived value of a degree may live in its exclusivity, but real value is any degree as still to this day a degree is a checkbox for many decent paying jobs.

The net result will indeed be better employment opportunities, as it opens up a large section of the job market requiring degrees across the United States.

They will be competing for better jobs than the ones they currently can get without a degree

You are coming from the opposite side. Go is leaner, like Nodejs and PHP can be used without any frameworks as batteries are included.

Asking for ORM means you are comfortable in your framework world. You will have to adopt, if you want to go a leaner way, with direct SQL or NoSQL API. Or find an ORM library (but learn about pro/cons).

I'm struck by how the right guidance was also helpful. Actually making something new happen is rewarding (py console), you experience your progress. But it can be tricky to divide a topic into bite-sized things, that can be experienced. That's where guidance helps.

Unfortunately, some topics have so many layers, they're difficult to break down into these learnable, rewarding chunks (e.g. computational fluid dynamics).

So (if you don't mind a reframing) while the slow drip of a consistent routine over a long period was crucial, each drop gave fairly quick (though not immediate) gratification.

> DoorDash has also updated its deactivation policy to ensure that all its delivery people retain access to the platform unless they violate the rules of engagement. Before, there was no single source of truth when it came to deactivating people from the platform. Another change is that DoorDash delivery workers will be able to appeal a deactivation if they feel they should not have been deactivated from the platform.

> ... the resolution they agreed on was not to change independent contractors to employee status, but rather change some policies to improve clarity and ensure more rights for the workers.

The article doesn't really give me a good idea of what the original lawsuit was about. It states that DoorDash was misclassifying "Dashers" as contractors, but other than the cash, the only thing they mention wrt the settlement is that DoorDash will change some of its deactivation policies, presumably because Dashers were being removed from the platform without clear reason.

So, is this a case where the class action accused DoorDash of misclassifying employees and then settled for a pile of cash, some minor policy tweaks, and no fundamental change in the company's contractor practices?

Amazing setup and even better write up. It shames my tiny 2x 4tb setup.

My only suggestion would be to try out gaffer tape instead of the duct/masking tape combo. I started using it about a year ago, and haven't looked back. No residue and no dry flaking over time.
I appreciate the effort here, but in general I don't think more fine grained mechanisms of offering selling debt to the lower classes is going to help long term.

Perhaps if you put upper limits on the assets of the people who can invest, but that seems unlikely.

Also, home ownership tends to be one of the "liabilities disguised as assets" that middle / upper middle class people love to buy.

Since our economy appears to be heading towards a post labor society with a massive divide between rich and poor, what exactly is the utility of educating kids to work in an economy that won't exist?

Seems to me the core skills we ought to help facilitate are creativity, maintaining an authentic self, emotional and Relational mastery, cooperation / democratic citizenry, permaculture, eco-regenerative architecture..

Instead of the industrialist model we have now, perhaps we ought to be teaching them how to develop, integrate and share technology into eco-regenerative housing and permaculture farms.

Use the education resources to purchase land, kids can help learn to build and work cooperatively along side adults, in a democratically run community.

You provide cool tiny-homes to anyone who needs them. And build them together, learning all sorts of great skills as you go along.

I am adivising & working on 2 such pilot projects in Costa Rica right now with a group of accomplished intellectuals (some of whom you may know). Costa Rica was chosen for a number of reasons including climate, mental health of population and a lack of a standing military.

We aim to develop a globally connected network of such projects in a neo-tribal model that fits with the emergent archaic values as post-modernism gives way to a more holistic and connected world.

We put the nuclear "waste" in breeder reactors. Problem solved. What's left decays fairly quickly and needs a couple of warehouses every fifty years.

No form of energy generation causes zero deaths. Chernobyl was a reckless expirement that went wrong. Fukushima is in no way comparable to Chernobyl regarding the amount of radiation released. We could increase security by stopping to demonize nuclear power and make it possible to build modern plants instead of running decades old designs with known flaws.
They will. I'm an investor, i like to make money, and i hate losing it. So i'm happy there's still someone else on the other side of the trade :-)
Nuclear power presently produces ~11% of world electricity. Wind + solar can scale to that penetration level even without battery storage and in much of the world wind or solar will already deliver LCOE lower than new-build nuclear. Reaching really high penetration levels depends on presently-unknown economics of large scale storage. (Much how the success or failure of molten salt reactors and every other next-generation nuclear dream is dependent far more on delivered costs than physics.)

EDIT: I see that you were responding to someone who is already sure that storage-backed wind and solar will become the only electricity sources. That's certainly a bolder claim than scaling up to match present-day nuclear penetration levels.
I'd say that people recommend it because it's mostly just plug-and-play and works out of the box. You don't need to learn much about how RAID or ZFS works or understand every little detail about nix administration. If you follow the guide it's pretty hard to go wrong.

I however wanted to learn all the details when I set up my NAS, so went with Debian Jessie and BTRFS. I only use AFS and NFS, and I'm the only user, so don't need half the features FreeNAS provides. Graphs are pretty, but I can quickly get all the information I need via SSH.
I read expecting to see something really alien. But it doesn't strike me as alien so much ... just low-level. You have to know the format of the bytes that were written to disk, which is pretty rare these days outside of systems programming (and mainframes I guess).
It's not just an increase in confidence or ability to socialize, and there's no inherent reason why friendships need to be shallow or dependent on alcohol like the phrase "drinking buddies" implies. Alcohol causes euphoria, plain and simple. I don't see any reason why responsible moderate use can't result in a net utility gain over the potential health decrease. I'm thinking along the same lines as other dietary treats (like candy or comfort food) that are probably not part of any theoretical "ideal" diet but which can still make people happy.

> lack of coverage isn't necessarily an indicator of lacking quality.
"lack of coverage" mostly means "untested code".

My experience is that it's very hard to keep untested code to a high quality level.
Any modification that isn't directly justified by a customer feature or a bug fix is frowned upon, because it's hard to tell if it breaks anything ; which means you pile up new features, but you can never modify their design so they fit better together.

When the philosophy is "now it works, let's never touch this module again!", code quality goes down to the toilet.
A pension plan is a contract between the municipality and its employees. Like most contracts, you either hold to it or you can be sued, at the least. Expecting to be able to weasel out of paying years later, after employees have retired is certainly a violation of civil law, if not criminal.

The retired employees completed their part of the contract and payment is due in full. They gave up higher levels of income to work at jobs where the pension is guaranteed (cities pay less than private firms, on average). To change the rules once employees have retired and without compensation will result in lawsuits and criminal prosecution, as it should.

WkndTriathlete says: "...it's pretty unrealistic to expect current taxpayers to pay for unrealistic and underfunded plans."

Sorry, that's what taxes are for. And what’s the problem with paying taxes anyway? To live in a city you pay city rates. Paying taxes on a well-managed city budget is one of the best ways to maintain and ensure that your property values increase. But for God’s sake, pay attention to politics and hold leaders accountable!

If you don’t want to pay taxes, then become a “Mountain Man” and move to Montana. Live on a mountaintop w/o roads, sewer, water, hospitals, stores, and cellphones. Or maybe you want your city to go the way of Detroit? You can

– kill your property values,

– call 911 and get nothing, not even a dial tone,

– Burn your own trash,

– Run your own septic system,

– Run your own electric generator,

– Buy a satellite cellphone (no other option – no other service available),

– Drive to another city once a month to stock up on flour, sugar, beans and batteries.
I recently (2 months already!) closed my FB account and I have a mixed feeling about it. Part of the time I spent on facebook now I spend on things I want to do, but other part now I'm using HN and Twitter more, so maybe declaring internet-free time would be a good idea for me too.
Yeash, what do you do when faced with a lobster or whole crab? Or a whole fish! The cheeks on a grouper, mmmm. Not to mention that the scraps and pickings off a just carved bird carcass are some of the best eating on the thing.
What about not doing a rewrite? What about instead refactoring, documenting etc the old system.
N=1 and five years ago but I worked on a console title where the feature development was 3 contractors/1 perm (me who didn't realize contracting was a much better deal) and five perm who supported us when needed. There was also a project that was outsourced entirely to a separate studio that our management fired for non performance and I had to revive the build from a hard drive with the last build and assets so the perm team could take over - so all sorts of permutations possible.
Ah, yes, that makes sense!
The biggest power consumer is things like Geysers, kettles, stoves and so on. A desktop running at 100% uses like 200W whereas a geyser uses like 2kw.

I think the previous commentator's point is that distributing power between neighbors is a theoretical way to avoid the time limit imposed by the power company. Of course, with current infrastructure I assume the power company would still need to support this model by doing some simple math with everyone's meters in a neighborhood or region.

"a la" means "like" or "in the same way/style".[1]

I believe "code tangling" has some connection to literate programming and mixing code with documentation. But I'm not exactly sure.

A systems programming language need not eschew GC. Zetalisp and Common Lisp are perfectly fine for Lisp Machine operating system implementation, without falling back to a language other than assembly for isolated bits of the very lowest-level code. Mezzano reaffirms this on x86-64 too.

I found Angular2 easier to start with, as I did not have to make decisions about what to use for router, DI, storage. With React (and React Native), there are many blanks to be filled, and hard to make a decision: Redux or Mobx?, which router?, who owns the style...
Can you say more about how you set it up? This sounds like a balanced solution: you avoid the long time sucks but can still look up needed info.
Disabling notifications, both on my phone and on my laptop, was one of the best things I ever did, hands down.

For the laptop, I've experimented with logging out of most social networks with some good results.

I block out an hour every day or so for email and the like, and during that time, I'll re-log-in to Facebook. But outside of that, I stay logged-out, and 2FA helps by making the login process even less convenient.

Messenger and Twitter do get re-enabled when I'm at a conference or need to coordinate with people via those channels, but otherwise, it's just another cognitive burden and potential source of bees-in-head.

When I'm at home, I also leave my phone in the charger in the bedroom. Out of sight really has been out of mind.

Oh, and no phone in the bathroom has been a very good rule as well, in terms of breaking bad habits.

New Japanese reactor projects face formidable headwinds:

- Increasing efficiency and shrinking population (long term shrinking electricity demand)

- Intense public resistance in the wake of Fukushima

- Should public resistance wane, there are dozens of functional but presently idled reactors that could restart faster than you can build and pay off a new reactor

> the most challenging bits to liberate will be the EPDC firmware

Could you clarify exactly what you mean by "EPDC firmware"?

afaik, it is already published so what needs to be "liberated"?

The devices you're talking about, eg: on your github, are the i.mx series of SoCs have an on-chip EPDC which is open source (the datasheets show all the registers) and the driver is also GPL. Eg: https://github.com/UDOOboard/Kernel_Unico/blob/master/driver...

In case you mean the .fw file used in that driver, that's a misnomer. There is no CPU inside the EPDC. That .fw file is a plain voltage waveform file that defines voltage vs time waveforms to get pixels to appropriate graylevels. "Liberating" that would be akin to "liberating" the content of a .wav file. ie: just use hexdump -C.
