Floating point precision isn't even a problem for most scientists, at least not the ones dealing with real-world data.

>What I do wonder is what it would take for climate change deniers to admit being wrong?

Mann is the fundamental reason "deniers" exist. He produced a model that produced hockey stick graphs with random data. Instead of distancing themselves from Mann, the community (IPCC) fanatically attacked anyone who pointed out the emperor had no clothes. The term "denier" popped out of that politicized controversy. You're still fighting the lost cause by using it. Mann is admitting he was wrong. You're unable to do the same.

He should have just said "Oops" in 2003. He had a bug in his program. While it would have been a bit of egg on his face (and the IPCC for publishing), we all understand bugs in code. Instead, he clung to it, hoping observations would match his predictions anyway. This gave his political enemies all the ammunition needed to properly smear the entire scientific community who backed him.

We fixed CFCs. We fixed acid rain. Mann, and the IPCC's refusal to disavow him, is the reason there is even a debate anymore. Dogma is the enemy, not the skeptics. Skeptics are a healthy part of the scientific process.

If our company had to delete all customer data for a particular customer, then I would need to:

restore 6 months of database backups individually, remove the data, then run then take and store each backup again.

have 3 years worth of tape backups shipped back to us from our data protection company. Restore the databases off of them, delete the data, store them back on tape, and have them shipped back to the long term storage facility.
Good point. Although I suppose you might still want to be home rather than running it while you're at work or otherwise away, to have a chance of grabbing the extinguisher and/or calling the fire department before your whole home is lost. I'm not sure how common it is to have smoke detectors automatically notify the fire department, and I expect there's issues there similar to burglar alarms, with false alarms being far more common than real ones, which affects response time.
FPL has started doing this based on the biggest load signal (time of day). We're charged peak rates and non-peak rates, and the peak rate is about 2x the non-peak.

Unfortunately, many consumers live in older apartments and/or are more transient than most, so there's less incentive to invest in energy efficiency. The landlord is responsible for appliances/AC, but not the power, so there's no incentive to do anything except buy the minimally sufficient hardware for the occupant.

I think if we start to change some of the perverse incentives in the lessor/lessee relationship this will also have some significant effect on power consumption.
Maybe I had a better luck, for me, UEFI boot with ZFS in Virtualbox did work. I've used CentOS though.

Multiple UEFI boot partition are possible, but just like you note in your article, they have to be outside the ZFS pool. All of them. Then you set order for each one using efibootmgr. For each, you will get a separate entry in UEFI boot manager.

It is not necessary to install grub2 after rebooting into ZFS root. It is perfectly fine to run grub2-install in chroot from your temporary installation.
Likewise, in SageMath you can turn any expression obj (matrices, fractions, elliptic curves, etc.) into latex by typing `latex(obj)`. (Disclaimer: I started SageMath and wrote a lot of this conversion to latex functionality early on, since it's useful for notebook interfaces.) Most objects in Sage have an _latex_ method, and the latex function works by recursively calling those methods to build a big latex expression. SageTex -- which lets you embed Python code in LaTeX documents -- also uses this latex(obj) functionality.

He's basically saying that Amazon is a big logistics company. Except he calls it meat as a service.

It's an interesting take. But it is also how many analysts thought that Walmart would kill grocery stores. I personally don't think that Amazon will fare much better than Walmart... shopping for groceries is fundamentally harder online, and Amazon hasn't demonstrated any magic that makes that easier.
Consider the three most common authentication factors:

* Something you know

* Something you have

* Something you are

A conventional password-based login implements "something you know" (i.e. your password). A password-less login implements "something you have" (e.g. email access). That doesn't make it more secure, it's just substituting one authentication factor for another. One could argue that it's more convenient but that's subjective since people that use password lockers might actually find it less convenient.

An argument against password-less logins might be that they should be implementing multi-factor authentication in the first place. Password-less login is by nature not at least two-factor authentication. Even if you have two-factor authentication enabled for your email, it will still just be "something you have" because someone that gains access to your PC or phone will probably have access to your email as well. The easiest second factor to add into the mix is "something you know" (e.g. a password) and now you're back to conventional two-factor authentication practices.
The accepted answer from a Bitcoin researcher sums up the merge problem pretty well; "As for the merge, this is still being discussed and we do not have a good contingency plan."

I wish we had more European based alternative services that I could switch to. With email the standard response to dumping Gmail seems to be FastMail (non-EU) and I haven't seen anything high-quality within the EU. Same goes for lots of other services.

Imgur has a pretty different product, and honestly - this might lower their traffic, but increase revenue (like the author mentioned).

I have friends who visit imgur regularly, and it's what I would consider a meme platform. Although, I personally use it to just share photos.

Reddit's natively hosted app, is likely why they need increased investment. Honestly, I see why Reddit wanted their own natively hosted images, but I can't see how this will increase their revenue or help them succeed.

That used to be true but if you get a used car that has records of regular oil changes and maintenance there is a high probability it will be fine. Most cars are designed to last 200k or more miles these days.

Think of it this way, is the depreciation between a new and lightly used car enough that you can afford a major maintenance event like engine or transmission repair? If so used is fine.

The type of used car matters too though. Think Toyota Corolla and not bmw 3 series...
> python feels lower level than C++ to me these days.

Yes I know that C++11 has a lot of cool things, but I find hard to believe it's higher level than Python. Even for simple things, C++ code tends to be several times bigger than the Python equivalent. Yes C++ might be faster, but when you need agility, to build a prototype or a script really quickly Python is many times better than C++ (in agility)

To be fair, Python programs aren't really designed to be compiled into a single executable. They are designed to be run through an interpreter. Therefore, multi-target compiling isn't really something the core developers focus on. The fact that you were unable to compile for multiple sources is more a failing of whatever third-party tool you were using.
Maybe have it generate a new password seeded by a browser fingerprint. That way it looks like the joke works but it doesn't do any damage.

It means you'll be getting notifications in your inbox all day while the thread is running, whether you're interested or not. Which gets us in the habit of ignoring them.

Macro metaprogramming can (and in practice often does) break ctrl+f search. If I want to find the definition of PREFIX_varname, I'd expect to grep for "PREFIX_varname", but often, the correct solution is to search solely for varname, because PREFIX_varname is defined by a call to MACRO(varname).

> I would guess that one solution is to keep EU citizens' data in the EU to avoid it being subject to other laws.

This is exactly what is being done by the large corporations that can afford to do it. European datacenters staffed by Europeans. Americans are not allowed to view any PII for any European (at least with the company I work at).

Russia requires the same thing, although they just want the servers in their country so they can put a SORM-3 alongside it and intercept whatever data they want.

> More importantly, we have 0 evidence that using private/protected in software is better than not.

I think his point, and it's a valid one, is that Python has practically re-invented private members with special underscore handling anyway -- just more half-assed.

We may have zero evidence that private/protected makes software better but programmers, even in languages with no native support for it, seem to out of their way to do it anyway. Perhaps there is something to it afterall.
Mailing lists are about organization, not content. If I'm on a 20 person team, there will be threads I'm interested in, and threads I'm not interested in. A mailing list doesn't make it easy to ignore the stuff I don't care about.
Quite frankly it's impressive that Imgur turned into a serious thing. Crossing the proverbial chasm from "Hosting pictures to post on Reddit sucks, so I'm gonna make something!" to where they are today is amazing to me. But I guess the same could be said for comparing any notable company's current state to their starting point (survivorship bias?)

Imgur is essentially a parasite upon reddit which exploited and relied upon reddit's lack of native image posts. Imgur's dependency on reddit led to it trying to compete directly with it to ensure its survival without its host (Imgur is now also a place to find and comment on images), but also ensured reddit would eventually drop it, thus paradoxically also hurting its survival.

Ultimately I think Imgur is destined to the same fate as TwitPic.

At a glance shadowsocks doesn't look like a secure protocol to me, so even if you use shadowsocks to obfuscate the protocol, you still need to tunnel a secure encrypted protocol inside of shadowsocks.

I don't expect most VPN users to need protocol obfuscation, especially since the IPs of the VPN operator are probably well known. If you're serious about that, you either need your own server or take great effort to hide the entry points (like Tor bridges attempt to).
Do you really watch over your dryer just
to make sure it doesn't catch on fire?

In my house, how it works is if an appliance in another room catches fire, I'm alerted by the smoke alarm and I can choose a correct response - such as a fire blanket, turning off the electricity, and/or calling the fire brigade.

The purpose of me being in the building or nearby is to ensure a correct and timely response. If the fire brigade are called by a real person and asked to attend, they'll know it's not a false alarm.

But when I've seen the fire brigade called by automated systems? False alarms every time. And the police don't even bother to come out to a burglar alarm or car alarm going off - it's got to be confirmed as a genuine alarm by a neighbour or alarm monitoring service.
Thanks for the link to EDRi. I hadn't heard of them (although it looks like there is some affiliation with the UK Open Rights Group who I am aware of).

Why on earth would Reddit want to add a massive expense (image hosting) at a time that they're already hemorrhaging money? Especially since imgur was still a fairly adequate host for the site. Reddit's image hosting seems like burning money for nothing. Not to mention the Reddit image URLs are horrifying. I upload stuff to imgur just for the nice, short URLs.

These kind of visualizations are of course an idealized view on how it works. As others have already mentioned, the processes are hugely chaotic and much more probabilistic than deterministic. On this scale everything is just one huge wobbling soup of things crashing into each other, which makes it even more fascinating that it works as well as it does.
So you want priority queuing for power consumption. I understand it would be able to eliminate some spikes for my individual house but my overall usage doesn't go down. The article is really about the grid and not an individual house. If every house in my town had priority queuing would the hourly consumption really change? Maybe that last dryer or dishwasher load of the night could be time shifted but you can only delay refrigeration or clothes washing so long withing either spoilage or killing your throughput.

Python is great for what it does. I use it a fair amount. Its fast enough for me.
