If I'm reading this correctly, the "world’s largest battery site: a 200-megawatt, 800-megawatt-hour storage station in China’s Liaoning province" has enough capacity to power 10% of Portland, Oregon's residential use for a day... and the article says this factory is producing 300 MWh of batteries per year right now ("eventually... 3 gigawatts per year").

Utility scale batteries are just for surge production; when the wind isn't blowing and the sun isn't shining within efficient transmission distance. Yet it seems like there is a lot of opportunity for more "20 soccer field" sized battery factories.

[TFA] 800 MWh battery
[0] 265,439 households
[1] 0.901 MWh per month, per average household

0.901 * 265439 = 239,160 MWh per month / 30.44 days per month = Portland's household consumption is 7,856.8 MWh per day

Sugar is in bread and yogurt and cheese naturally.

It's required for the fermentation process to happen. The real concern IMO is sugar added. This should be pretty easy to find for cheese and yogurt, for bread you might have to get into homemade / high quality sourdough (real sourdough) to not have sugar added.

"Inappropriate unprofessional unsourced editorializing?"

The Economist explicitly brands and declares itself a journal of both reporting and opinion. As for "unsourced", it choses to adopt an anonymous style and tone of writing (such that any statements of opinion, which in any case are hardly disguised and pretty obvious to spot as such, take be taken to be the opinions of the entire editorial board, more or less).

As such, it's one of the few organs (though I frequently find myself in disagreement with it) I almost always enjoy reading.
Given that tax was invented to transfer wealth from the poor to the rich, I don't think it is surprising that taxation is ineffective at transferring wealth from the rich to the poor.
Sometimes just faking Comcast out with the threat of doing a competing service is helpful.

The president of the HOA in the neighborhood next to mine was sick of poor service from Comcast, and put a neighborhood broadband proposal on their HOA association agenda. Comcast (the only choice for wired broadband here) got wind of it, and immediately started upgrading their infrastructure and digging new fiber to the curb. Now they have faster and more reliable service than we do.
Yes, if you ignore the people who is not pro-independence, then the independentism is a clear majority. Maybe the situation would be less tragic if those nationalist counties had tried to declare independence from the Tarragona-Barcelona arc, the Aran Valley and the rest of Spain. For sure it would be more comic.

Really? Perhaps you could explain how every single one of us found out it is true? Maybe every single one of us has a friend working in the NSA who was willing to tell us, even though he could go to jail for giving away such a secret?

Or maybe you are just making things up.
If the problem is (reportedly) that foreigners hold too much property, it means the money entered the system and remained there, so the bonus has become permanent (one-off, yes, but permanent). You also assume a foreigner selling property will move the money out of the country, which is actually unlikely - if he's done good business, chances are that he'll reinvest in the same market, so the money again stays in the system; and if he's done bad business then the locals effectively skinned him, which is again a bonus. Plus, every transaction is typically taxed, so even just an increased amount of activity is a bonus for the system.

As long as authorities crack down on loopholes (like foreigners buying property through a fake company, and then selling the company to avoid real estate tax over property sales; or keeping properties empty for an unreasonable amount of time in the face of housing shortages), it's a net positive.

As for the rest, do you have an HN link for the other post you're referring to? When you say "deleted", do you mean flagged? Dead? or completely gone? I suspect this last as you haven't provided a link and likely would have if you had one. If it's gone, one possibility is that the submitter deleted it.

I suggest you contact the mods. They do sometimes come across comments like this and answer, but they don't see everything on the site. In my experience they've been very responsive.

Also in my experience the mods are very hands-off when it comes to completely removing content. Before assuming bad faith on their part, I'd ask them first.

As a replacement for HPKP it doesn't solve the big attack scenario of someone taking over your DNS and obtaining a certificate to impersonate your site: if they can do that, they can also put false certificate details in DNS.

It's also tied to DNSSEC, which isn't universally deployed for domains, would if I understand correctly putting a full DNSSEC-resolver in the browsers to protect against local MITM (which isn't practical in many situations) and often criticized.

I am more familiar with American tax law than Norwegian but I have huge doubts it’s illegal to have money offshore. Having money in more than one country is a pretty good hedge. When the Greek banks shut down and imposed atm restrictions, only Greeks with foreign bank accounts were able to access their money for example.

I’m searching but if you find anything on what constitutes ‘hiding’ in Norwegian tax law as it relates to offshore accounts it would be much appreciated.

I have a feeling ‘hiding’ is another one of those spirit of the law / unwritten societal rules sort of thing in this context.
And this doesn't count "legal" tax deductions that might be considered unfair. This is only a measure of illegal evasions

I agree that some arguments of the report don't hold water. But others are more convincing to me. Note that they analyze textbooks that are sold in stores, not stuff made by random teachers.

About the anecdote, a single case... there have been at least a couple dozen reported. Who knows how many were unreported. Even if they're kind of isolated, they show what kind of environment may exist in some places.

The average price of property grows due to the additional demand from speculators, foreign and local, pushing up the price that C has to pay for any other property as well. It's not that complicated.

The primary purpose of housing is not to make people money, it's to house people. To serve that goal the lower the price is the better.

In that context it's clear that it's not the relative wealth, or even foreigner vs local that's the problem, it's speculation of any kind. So no, in your thought experiment it's no better to sell to foreign speculators regardless of their relative wealth.

A more interesting thought experiment is what happens in an economy when property speculation doesn't happen. House prices are lower, as demand is only from those that want to live in them and those that want to buy them to lease them out. With lower prices paid, there's more money (on average) in everyone's pockets - including those that rent, due to lower rental prices. This increase in money stimulates the economy, especially because most of the relative benefit accrues to those on lower incomes that spend most of their income to live. The economy is further benefited as much of the money that would have otherwise been dumped into non-productive real estate speculation instead flows into real investment.

The end result of discouraging property speculation is enormously beneficial to the country. Investors can speculate in the stock market or whatever else they like, because people don't live in shares, but the housing market exists to serve a purpose... and that purpose is not to make people money. That's an acceptable side effect so long as the primary purpose is fulfilled, but in NZ and AU it's failing.
I believe that potential infinity (i.e. the idea of intervals becoming ever smaller and smaller) will be sufficient to deal with the "real world". But the infinities described in the article are of a different kind.

I don't think there will ever be a situation like: "According to the axiom of choice, this photon should go to the left, but according to the axiom of something else, this photon should go to the right." Or: "If there is such a cardinal X that mumbo-jumbo(X) is true, then the photon should go to the left, otherwise it should go to the right."

Therefore, this part of math is just playing with words. An interesting game, especially if you can get paid for it, and it can provide indirect benefits such as greater insight into how to correctly play with words, but ultimately just a game with no correspondence to the "real world".
Sorry, my reading comprehension on your post wasn’t too hot. I agree that you should be questioning what happened.

At work so I haven’t watched the video yet, but my quick rationale is,

Let m = abs(n)
It follows n = sign(n) * m
We can work with m since sign(n) doesn’t affect the ones digit of n^5. More formally, n^5 = sign(n)^5 * abs(n)^5.

Let m = 10 * b + a, where
b = floor(m/10)
a = m % 10

Essentially we extract the ones digit as a.

m^5 = (10 * b + a)^5
If we expand the terms, only a^5 affects the ones digit. The remaining has at least one 10 as factor.

Quick python script will verify a^5 has a as the ones digit for 0...9.

for a in range(10):
print(pow(a, 5) == a)

Edit: fixed formatting
It's the primary cause. See the article I linked to. Government payments, subsidies, regulations, and tax policy all act to distort market incentives.
What on earth are you talking about?

> The internet is dynamically typed.

That's an incoherent claim.

Dynamic typing is where types belong to values. Static typing is where they apply to terms.

Really to call the former "typing" is misnomer. It's an abuse of the word "type" to mean "memory mode". It has not much relationship to typing in the logic/math/philosophy of logic sense in which types are sets and type relationships are those between sets.

It is the Curry-Howard isomorphism (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curry%E2%80%93Howard_correspon...) which defines the correspondance between types in computer science and mathematics.

This is "static" only because the "dynamic" alternative isnt really an alternative at all, and really just a different kind of thing all together.

> I still didn't run into problems with the AR approach. Maybe it's because all of my projects were medium or small sized. I found AR to be perfect for them to the point that I want to disguise Ecto as AR using Ecto.Rut.

Perhaps its a stylistic thing, but recent versions of Ecto feel quite natural to me. I frequently use Ecto without a database by using it for embedded schemas (which I don't embed)—they're basically just structs that I can use with changesets a little more cleanly.

As someone else noted, you don't have to use changesets for the happy path interactions like simple inserts. It really just comes down to whether you can live with the Repo as the first thing you type instead of the schema.

> This sounds interesting but I fail to understand what you mean. Would you mind explaining or posting a link? Thanks.

Rails teaches us to look at the model as the primary point of business logic. In my view this is putting the cart before the horse. By putting the Model (big M, not little m) we limit our thinking around abstractions to what we can represent structurally in the database. A well-designed, thought-out application model (little m, not big M) encompasses much more than database tables. With AR, even if you try to create behaviors on fat models, ultimately the only vocabulary you have to work with are those nouns the database allows you.

Ecto does something subtle but important: it demotes your data schema to just that—data. Behavior is modelled in the messages you pass between processes, which is why you see so many people in the elixir community jumping into architectural techniques like eventsourcing. While things like Ecto.Rut add some conveniences, they also encourage promotion of the data to the central artifact of the system. After building Rails applications from small to very large over 10 years, I can say for my part I want to stay as far away from that as possible. Its convenient until its not, and when you can start to feel the pain of it, its very difficult to unwind its effects throughout your system.

re: agents, maybe what you're looking for is ExActor: https://github.com/sasa1977/exactor

Worth noting, especially if you're in the first 12-18 months of using Elixir: OTP is incredible, but it takes time to wrap your head around all its pieces. I usually recommend new users coming from an MVC framework just try to muddle along using Phoenix as they would Rails until they start getting comfortable with things like supervision trees and GenServers... and then the fun really starts. All the rest of it, like Ecto's hands-off approach to the database, really starts to make sense around that time.

Interesting look-back. I'm not sure I agree with this point though"

>Not inherently social — Most people don’t like talking about medical care. We usually come into a person’s life when their pet is sick. The client is experiencing a range of unpleasant emotions (stress, worry, etc.). Even if we provide an amazing experience, there is still some negativity associated with our service. I believe that this negativity limits the virality of a health care service.
