No it's not.

There was some small scale experiments, to have a fully working industrial prototype, the amount of problem to solve is just colossal. I think 40+ years is a much more reasonable guess. The thing is we don't even have a realistic timeline for those, because even that requires more research.
We need way more data to say something about LFTR.

Fusion on the other hand has an estimate timeline. If everything goes well with ITER, DEMO should be operational around 2040-2050+. And actual power plants will use DEMO design.
That's what we know today. With more research, we could find better design and faster ways to get fusion (Wendelstein 7-X) or we can find more trouble along the way.

Yes. IDK if Hayek addresses this or not, but Coase has a very good (and short) little book on the theory of the firm where he goes into exactly that. Basically, there are transaction costs to going to the market. So sometimes it's worthwhile to lose market feedback and centrally plan things.
Coal is under 40% of US electrical generation and dropping fairly quickly relative to 50+ year plant lifetimes.

Peak was near 60% in late 80's and it's dropped 30%. https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=25392. Current issue is it's more expencive than wind and not viable as peaking power, just like Nuclear making this a non starter.
Looking for something like GeoGebra†, but usable on the Web, I came across this JavaScript library (which depends on d3.js to draw the SVGs). It’s available for Node on npm‡.

What I especially like is the simple, declarative syntax, allowing to draw geometry diagrams in the classic euclidian style, as e.g. in this constructive proof: http://euclid.js.org/parse.html

There are many charting libraries, all focussing on data visualizations and statistical (or data-driven) plots. But a comprehensive library to draw abstract geometry seems to be a desideratum still. There remains much to be desired in this one, Euclid.js, too.

For example, if one would want to draw a diagram based on a rectangle of a given proportion, then, with Euclid.js, the rectangle must be tediously drawn from Euclidian primitives (point, intersection, line, circle, segment) first, before one can actually start drawing the desired figure from there.

Ideally, the drawing library would have built-in convenience constructs for frequently used geometrical figures such as a square, a root-two rectangle, an isosceles triangle, an equilateral triangle, other regular polygons, methods for bisecting a line segment, trisecting, etc. etc. And it would be really nice, if relevant points would be labeled using a system of choice (ABC or ΑΒΓ), and when significant features of the drawing would be shown (segments of equal length marked, right angles, etc.).

Economics is politics, and that's actually one of the more clear examples.

But even if the farmers' actions were somehow non-political, as far as I know the main contributors of Libreboot are not farmers, nor is the Peers Community to which the project belong a trade association of farmers. It's clearly a project motivated by a political idea.

No, it spits out javascript (the exact same javascript that I wrote), which returns shadow DOM trees (which are javascript objects), which the renderer looks at to modify the actual DOM.

Also not sure what you mean by "looks like" javascript. It's clearly javascript - just a function call with 4 arguments.

> Hype is an interesting thing especially when it comes from laymen.

Agreed, as can attributing value to said hype.

An argument can generally be made for many things for why they "can be useful, in X situation" (like 'a layperson understand ML'), doesn't mean it has value in every context.

(Or even that it's a particularly good example for its contrived purpose - just that it could/might suffice if nothing better exists.)

Representative democracy is all about the acknowledgement of different views, so policies are often compromises or cop-outs. So not only is it both, it is an acknowledgement of recent history and current attitudes in various countries around the world.

More broadly, I can think of two notable examples from the past twelve months where strong democracies made insanely bad decisions despite strong evidence suggesting they shouldn't.

From an Australian perspective, we've had multiple long-term initiatives implemented by a government only to have the opposition rail against them (and eventually, repeal them) for no real reason beyond party differentiation. Long term projects often can't survive election cycles.

With renewables and storage we seem to have an active industry with broad support across the populace, and the only real political differentiation involved is at what pace to set. Having something we can actually do right now seems wiser than trying to get something off the ground which has a strong chance of going nowhere.

Yes, our democracies are quite broken. We need to try and make progress regardless, because we can't sit and wait around until they're working better.

The underlying facts are not controversial - being transgender puts someone at considerably higher risk of dying by suicide, of attempting suicide, and of having suicidal ideation.

> It's almost like Apple is using the wrong yard stick to measure their Pro market because they're asking the wrong questions.

I think we at HN are succumbing to a bit too much Omphaloskepsis[0], in that we [developers] feel that we are the 'Pro' users almost exclusively. This simply isn't the case. I do, however agree partly with your claim in that Apple is not using enough yardsticks. Apple have always defined their 'Pro' market by their pro-apps (as you and they mentioned, FCP, LCP, etc). There are a huge amount of creative professionals that need 'beefy' machines to do media-development work, and wouldn't be so bothered about losing their F-keys.

It's funny how Apple have always acknowledged their developers (in a big way) out-of-sight, but never really put them on the public pedestal that their 'artistic' users get. This is predominantly a fault of Marketing than anything else. Such thinking has clearly infiltrated top management, and I do hope they start getting their ideas inline with a more wholesome and comprehensive view of who their professional users really are.

Coal is more or less already dead. US production dropped from near 60% in late 80's to under 40% now in part because it's too expensive vs Wind and not flexible. Paying even more per KWH for even less flexible generation is a nonstarter unless it can very quickly respond to shifting demand. Especially with how long these plants need to last.

At this point safety is a non issue with nuclear it just needs dramatically lower costs or somewhat lower costs and vastly increased flexibility. The problem is heat engines cool down when you stop producing power and they both have huge thermal loads vs natural gas.

For our team React + Redux + Redux Saga + TypeScript has been a great way to develop our complex SPAs. We do use MobX selectively (dynamic forms), but the big benefits of the combination is the ability for our team to work productively without stomping on each other. Big factors are the explicit layout for domain models in the store, clear points for mutation, testable orchestrations via sagas, JSON schema validation and type generation.

The downside is the ceremony around it all but everything is so predictable and reliable it's a huge relief. Velocity is now good. We didn't choose this combination first off (via GraphQL, MobX, thunks), but the team decided that this combination was the best way for us to solve the issues we had encounter in the past.

How to Get More Traffic on Your Website?
Hello Everyone,

If you're looking for the answers on how to get more traffic to your website, you may have spent a lot of money in the past with the hopes of getting large amounts of traffic with bulk type traffic providers but ended up with less than desirable results.

Several thousands of industries throughout the world contend with one another to produce more orders by their websites. Although, there are several methods of bringing a website in the top ranks in search engines.

There are many methods to used with help the websites to receive back links and achieve higher ranking in Search engines for desired keywords. A SEO Company uses various techniques to make the website and keywords rank high in the most used search engines like Google, Yahoo, and Bing.

Most of the SEO Company work on some particular strategies like selection of keywords, content of the site, site structure, optimization, internal linking, human testing, directory and article submissions, link building and monitoring. An outstanding website with the finest graphic design job and the recent e-commerce tools may not do well without the help of a SEO Company.

The success of a SEO Company depends upon two factors - which rank it is able to provide for a website and how long it is maintained it. The key to its success is the analysis of keyword value and paying attention to link building.

I hope very helpful that my above answer!

Thanks,

This may or may not be a Good Thing - I'm not qualified to make that call. But this article isn't doing the effort any favors. Labelling the technology _exclusively_ as "fusion" comes dangerously close to what's today called "fake news."

I understand from other peoples' comments that the project aims to commercialize some kind of fission-fusion hybrid technology where fission reactions kick-start fusion reactions. That's (potentially) cool, but I'd have expected the article to tell me this.

I've read all my past employment contracts and all of them have been readable and understandable (UK). I've even gone back and challenged points before and got some removed or, for example, been given a waiver allowing me to run a company in my spare time (as the contract said you couldn't unless you had asked).

I realise I have much higher reading comprehension than most people, and have more bargaining power than a Deliveroo rider, but I find it crazy someone wouldn't read their own employment contract from start to end.
> internal pushback

I'm really curious what you're imagining the corporate structure to be like here - what kind of "internal pushback" are you envisioning?

In particular, I don't see engineers as particularly getting paid to or even having access to the parameters of the specs they're fulfilling. Anyone bothering to wonder would likely just assume the system they'd be working on to do this would be fully covered by 'legal' in specific agreements with firms to track that info, or if asked would be told that the spec is what it is and not anything about the use case.

Legal, meanwhile, isn't going to take money to tell MS what they can't or 'shouldn't' do; but rather just to ensure they don't have exposure in doing whatever they want to do.

So I guess that just leaves the leadership - which you could argue you're surprised by, if the board/C-levels/etc were individuals particularly known for being privacy-oriented. (Yeah. At Microsoft.) Meanwhile, you have a likely strong potential profit motive in a platform able to shift that kind of control to devs, though at the 'cost' of potentially losing privacy-concerned users - and their profit motive believes they can just EEE those users out of a market of competing products, so they give the go-ahead.

So if there's a 'pushback' module that failed in this scenario, perhaps I don't see it; but I don't really see at what point you'd expect something like this to be 'stopped' internally.
I find the front very fugly, not sure how I feel about the car's aesthetics overall. As for the lack of a main instrument cluster, I'll wait and see. So far i prefer the looks of a Hyundai Ioniq for example... If they launch a 40kWh+ version next year, it could be a real threat for the Tesla M3.
For employment contracts? I was under the impression it was in everybody's best interest to make those very clear (at least in the US) as their enforceability depended on it.

I've certainly read every employment agreement I've ever signed & never encountered an unclear one.

No. The FCC is an independent (not executive) federal agency, and ultimately serve at the pleasure of the Congress. Congress granted FCC their statutory authority to regulate (and can revoke it).

FCC commissioners go through presidential appointment and senate confirmation, and almost always has as a 2-1 or 3-2 party split. This DOES make the Commission's direction subject to different political winds than just the executive, or just the Congress. But that doesn't make them under the executive any more than that confirmation process makes the judiciary part of the executive.

Creating a full REST Application back-end automatically from a Schema Definition
My blog article shows how you can directly deploy a schema definition and automatically have CRUD endpoints exposed over JSON REST services.

https://scottsinclairblog.wordpress.com/2017/04/07/creating-a-json-rest-crud-application-backend-in-30-minutes/

The CRUD services respect the application domain model.

* Cascading operations across entities.
* Optimistic locking (freshness checks).
* Orphan removal of entities which are no longer referenced.

A lot of time is saved because all the business logic to manage these relationships does not have to manually coded.

Audit logging and Access-Control can also be easily plugged in.
Maybe "overpaid" is the wrong term. I think that VC capital allocation in Berlin is skewed in favor of fintech investments, where most people are setting up some part of the banking ecosystem into their own app and most of them fail hard w/ product market fit even though they got great budgets compared to other b2c industries like eSports etc.
Sure, and sometimes insanity looks like insanity to an observer. In this case, I find it very hard to believe that the issue is rights. The drivers don't intend to hit the pedestrians—they're being reckless, not oppressing the pedestrian minority. And if the pedestrians honestly believed they'd get hit, I doubt they'd stand in the middle of the road flipping people off. Both parties are acting recklessly.

I once crossed a crosswalk at a 4-way stop. A car started accelerating from their stop sign. I could have kept walking to "stand up for my rights," but I chose to stop walking just in case the car wasn't going to stop.

Turns out the driver was a slightly older guy who didn't see me at all. He blew right passed me (within a foot of where I stopped), saw me out his driver's window, and slammed on the breaks. If I hadn't stopped, I'd have been hit hard. It's true he would have been the one at fault, but that's hardly some victory. He was a bad driver, not someone purposefully ignoring my right of way.

Forget pedestrians; this is why driving schools teach so-called defensive driving style. Even if you're legally faultless, it's much better to avoid an accident than to put yourself in danger just because you have the "right" to do it. Do you know how many accidents you could cause every day by ignoring safety when you have right-of-way? Standing up for your rights is hardly an excuse to plow into every car that pulls out in front of you.

Also, although Google knows everything about me, they have so far managed to prevent security incidents, leaks and embarrassing deals (apart being forced to provide backdoor to NSA). They seem to know what they are doing security-wise.
