A few years back I got a new washing machine. After a few weeks of use a light came on that simply said "Hygiene". I had no idea what this meant so looked in the manual. It turns out that the washing machine expects to have a 90 degree C cycle every so often so it kills all the germs inside. This was a feature that my previous machine didn't have.

Incel is a distinct sub-group of the people who are involuntarily celibate. It is incorrect to use the term "incel" to refer to everyone who is involuntarily celibate.

> Incels are consistently written off as simply misogynist

Incels are defined by their misogyny, and not by their involuntary celibateness.

Sex is not a marketplace, and it's not surprising that people who view it as such aren't having sex. It's like trying to learn to play the piano using the theory of relativity.

A-Team, GI-Joe, Rocky, heck, even Terminator 2 (the machine) from the early 90s tried really hard not to kill people.

Go back further, and the good guy "sacrificed" himself or his own interests for the benefit of others.

Very similar to the way death is described in Lucretius' de natura rerum.
My house can load 105A. I sometimes use 120 kWh on a really cold day, so it's not peaking anywhere near that current, at least not for long.

I'm not driving 400km every day so the grid will definitely handle it. But there is a lot of potential to reduce network costs if the charger negotiated with the grid.
I expected it to sanitize as well as soap does, via mechanical removal. That it didn't do that well enough suggest to me, either that the bacteria are just too well lodged in fabrics, or that an extra rinse cycle (or two) are required, or that the washer was over-loaded.

-We're about to try out the same idea locally, on a larger scale - ferries are about to go electric, the grid is not stiff enough to handle the peak load (4.7MW for 5 minutes every 30 minutes) and hence bunkers (for lack of a better term) containing tons and tons of li-ion batteries are needed to make for a sustainable draw from the grid.

The battery storage facilities won't win any architectural awards as they are currently envisioned, but I can't wait to see whether this will actually work reliably; our first few attempts at electric ferries had some teething problems, mostly with the charge process taking too long to establish. The ferries run on a tight schedule; hence charge time dropped significantly as establishment was slow, and ferry batteries slowly depleted over the course of the day.

Anyway - 4.7MW translates into some quite massive shore power connectors, and they need to mate quickly and reliably - and when the weather gets rough, everything in the surrounding environment will be soaked in salt water. Interesting times.
It's neither religious nor quackery but whatever man, I forgive you for not understanding.

That's just good practice in general, the salt & sweat come out easier when they haven't fully dried yet, and the bacteria won't have as much time to grow their numbers and make the garment permanently smelly.

What I don't get is why those machines are so eager on saving water. The amount of water used costs so much less compared to the electricity (at least here in Germany) but on some kinds of load the clothes get barely wet. Making it heat up slower or using more efficient motors would be enough IMO. Or at least add a button that reads "waste a shitload of water".

My washer is sitting next to the kitchen sink and I just manually add a huge load of water every time I turn that damn thing on. I installed a faucet with a hose just for that reason.
To be fair, if someone switched out the lenses on my glasses I would have a hard time too.
So currently, choosing Mastodon vs Pleroma boils down to what you care more about: performance/less complexity, or more features/maturity.

Mastodon is really nice, but it's fairly intensive. Precompiling the rails/webpack assets in particular made my tiny VPS choke, even with 4GB of memory I believe. It also requires Sidekiq and other services [1].

Pleroma is newer and written in Elixir/Phoenix purely as an API. It only has itself as a dependency, and it's lean enough to run on a Raspberry Pi. It offers two frontends, pleroma-fe and mastofe, the latter is a port of Mastodon's UX.

---

Features wise, Pleroma doesn't really have a lot beyond the basic functionality of subscribing to people, posting, etc. There aren't real moderation tools (yet), since it's mostly a weekend project for the core devs. Blocking instances requires an IP block still, I think.

Mastodon wins features-wise, hands down. But some things aren't really easy to reconfigure- since the frontend is baked in, changing things like the post character limit (500 chars) is tedious. In pleroma it's a simple config file change.

---

I like Pleroma personally but it's not for everyone (yet). I plan on contributing more soon to help change that.

I also was only running single user instances so I can't really discuss scaling. @technowix@niu.moe [2] would be better to ask about that, considering their instance has ~3k users [3].

One of the worst ideas ever, spreading like a plague. All it results in is stores becoming sellers of bags and finding ways to bundle bags into the sale to capture the bag fee which they keep. Some stores didn't even use bags previously.

The bags sold are not generally reusable as a practical matter, so it causes more waste (more plastic weight over all being transacted). When they are reusable they have caused sanitation issues.

Why would you incentivize stores to sell bags? Has any of the bag ban cities seriously thought this one through?
Semi related. But dr bronner's sal suds is quite nice as a laundry detergent - works better than the regular dr bronners (for laundry). 2 tablespoons is all it takes, smells great, and it should be fine for most people with sensitive skin.
At least with the lambda UI, it's miles ahead of the google cloud functions UI. Both of those pale to the webtask implementation though.
actually I do lots of embedded, busybox is about 2MB and bash is 1MB, unless the resource is extremely restricted I just install bash for scripting purposes.

python is about 4.5MB and Lua is about 200K, both run on top of a shell anyways, and need some packages to be fully useful.

To be fair adding 200KB Lua (no luarocks etc) on top of a shell is useful sometimes on embedded system, but I rarely need that.

1. Define modern and social class you have in mind? Definitely by the end of 19 century in Germany, upper class children time was heavily controlled. Yes, poor kids run around alone from very early age through - you had 4 years old alone whole day.

As for peasants, you did not lived alone after marriage that was soon. You lived with parents who still exercised control over you.

Contemporary child soldiers are exactly that - they are kids recruited or forced into army. They still act like teenagers and kids, except they are more dangerous. Go read up on them and on how they do once they are out of army. There are projects trying to deal with that and by what they wrote, these kids do have various social, mental etc problems. Including nightmares and higher rates of violent behavior.
The Pope tried. Took 200 years for his modifications to be adopted.
I say this to justify a theory. Hence I focus on the theory and not to discredit another theory as a strawman. But I noted that I would if called on, so here goes:

* We know that anciently transmitted etymologies are unreliable. They were prone to folk etymology as much as we are, if not more so.

* I guess the most prolific onomatopoeia are simply way way older than this word. And they proliferate because a cuckoo really doesn't make any other sound than that. Whereas language is a lot more diverse. It might have frequent recognizable features, even ones sounding like "bar", I don't even doubt that. After all we have them too, argh. I can imagine that it is a word pronounced in allusion to the foreign language, even a foreign word.

* I also hear the theory that some sound imitations pop up all over the place, independently. At least that is obviously highly unlikely to have happened here.

* There is very little chance to actually experience a foreigner, which would be needed to reinforce the perception as sound imitation. So it's more likely this was told as a joke for reference. That invites the thought that the joke was just that and outweighed the etymon. Most people don't really care about etymology anyway.

* Ideophone fits the idea much better.

* It's childish; foreign policy is not.

It was overpriced because it was too early. The components to deliver the GUI experience weren't sufficiently commoditized yet.

In 1995, the entire product line was confused, and the then-CEO had opened up the platform to commodity cloners, robbing Apple of its vertical market and hardware margin.
Does that number change over time? Sounds like a one-time calibration, pretty much like my jeans size.
> Clearly it was cheaper to pay settlements on the deaths.

That merely shows that tort settlements at that time didn't have an accurate price on human life. $200,000 is about $1.13 million in today's money, which is only about 7 years of senior-dev salary. An early death usually costs more than 7 years of healthy life.

If we assume that the median car-fire death actually had 20 years of healthy life ahead of them, instead of 7, then we can conclude that typical settlements should have cost about $500,000 (in the same 1973 money) instead of $200,000.

This would have raised the total tort cost estimate to $123 million, at which point the two figures are close enough that the entire discussion would have ceased to be worth the amount of C-level labor that must have gone into it.

(The above also assumes that one's own life is worth as much as one can earn prior to death-by-natural-causes. I have yet to find evidence to disprove this hypothesis with respect to my own life ... but some people feel that life is even more valuable. If those people were to perform the same process as I did above, then their conclusion would be even more powerful than mine.)

When you underprice something you have, don't be surprised to find yourself in a drastic shortage of it.
I mean that the first attack (having A PGP encrypted middle of an email that the client just expands to plaintext) and the attack on S/MIME have nothing to do with PGP mistakes in PGP at all.

The gadget attack on PGP is completely an exploit against PGP, but this publication also treats other attacks. At the very least, if you weigh this by volume of text, they focus a lot on pure client mistakes (first attack) and S/MIME (half of second attack).

Sunlight does nothing. UV radiation, which you are exposed to in the outdoors, will disrupt a microorganism's DNA, preventing it from reproducing (it doesn't kill the microorganism, though). There's no guarantee that just leaving something out in the sun will penetrate enough to be effective.

A glass window filters out almost all of the UVA spectrum, but you can buy a UVA lamp if you want to disinfect the surface of some item indoors. (DO NOT USE THIS LAMP ON YOURSELF). As an example, The SteriPEN uses a UVA lamp to sterilize water, but needs to be on for a sufficient amount of time as the water is agitated.

edit I'm an idiot, the SteriPEN uses UV-C, which doesn't even get through our atmosphere. UV-A and UV-B do get through and do affect organisms. Here's a paper on the SteriPEN: https://www.travelmedicinejournal.com/article/S1477-8939(15)...

I understand authority-crisis, but does this invalidate her other findings? (Can you enjoy Ender's Game even though Orson Scott Card is a fucking weirdo?)
I work on argo. The workflow-controller is very tolerant to crashes and designed to be this way. Workflow state is captured in the workflow CRD object (in k8s etcd). Because step names are formulated, in the event of a crash (say before the created pod is persisted in etcd), when the controller restarts and tries to schedule the pod again, it hits an AlreadyExists error and understands how to handle this. Thus, workflows are idempotent in crash scenarios.
I hate the new machines that weight the laundry before adding the water. I live in BC, Canada, in a literal rain forest. We have more water than we know what to do with. I have relatives who are about to scrap their new machine because it never uses enough water. They run the cycle twice just to ensure the soap is properly rinsed off. And they get their water from a solar-powered well!

Why does this matter? A factory polluting local lakes and rivers to make goods for export to another state definitely couldn't use this as an excuse.

It's phrased as a statement, with the usual headline-speak of dropping articles: "[This is] Why Traditional TV is in trouble".

It could use spikes and/or go on all fours in “fast” mode. It’s whatever you design. My main point though is not mechanics, but the significantly lower reaction time. Given enough compute, the world that seems “real time” to us could appear to be slow as molasses to a robot. I think the natural thing to do would be to make it move at the speed that provides a good balance between accomplishing objectives and energy consumption. I think that this speed is much faster than what we’re used to with humans. For eg military robots that balance could be further tweaked in favor of quickly accomplishing objectives.

Michael Stonebraker: “My 10 Fears about the Future of the DBMS Field”
It is possible, but note that SSH is interactive and always had multiple ciphers. On PGP, as far as I can tell, there is no field for the cipher used. So you somehow need to introduce that field somewhere, but be able to deal with files that do not have that field. Possible but very tedious. The non-interactivity seems like it makes it harder to 'negotiate' a version. As there is no way to get clarification.

At the same time, you need to be careful against downgrade attacks.
Being good is evidently boring...

I added a few examples in another comment. Even Rambo sacrificed his own safety and freedom to help rescue POWs.

Modern day heroes are all a bunch of whining self-centered children. Just go watch any super hero movie today for a good example of that.

It's almost a badge of honor to be morally ambiguous. Compare a list of protaganists, how many are anti-heros? Do we even have any real good guys in movies and tv these days? Even Superman has been turned into a murderer for this generation.

A few examples from popular TV:

Walking Dead: everyone is a murderer. Murder is justified consistently.

Billions: It's hard to know who to root for, they are all rotten. The righteous people are the "bad guys"

Scrubs: All the characters are morally bankrupt (compared to 30 years before it's time)

Ironman: A selfish rich asshole.

Batman: (ok, he was always an anti-hero from day 1)

Deadpool: Do I need to explain this one?

Wicked: A play about how the evil witch is misunderstood.

The Shield, The Wire, modern Star Trek vs old Star Trek, the list is too long...

There has always been corruptions, lack of morals. That's not my issue, it's that today, there simply isn't even close to a minority of actual real main protagonists that are selfless.

I think people find good people trying to do what is right just boring these days.

I bought a bunch of assembly/MASM books from the 90s recently, if that helps. Writing assembly is a skill that atrophies so quickly without constant exercise, so once you spool up to an acceptable level of assembly productivity, you really need to make a conscious effort keep practicing to maintain it.

> This meme needs to die. Developed countries produce much more waste than developing countries.

Yes, but western countries also have better waste disposal infrastructure (land fills, incinerators) that is actually used, so in this case that is not very relevant.

> On top of that, a huge proportion of waste is exported by developed countries to developing countries.

This is because Chinese recycling companies underbid most of their western (more local) competition, essentially putting them out of business.

I strongly believe there should have been much earlier trade intervention by western (rather than Chinese) governments to prevent that. But on the other hand, western countries didn't aim guns at China's head to make them take their trash.
