Given the amount of semi-prepared food (chopped up veggies and so forth) that most supermarkets already stock, it's surprising how slow most of them have been to jump on this bandwagon. I have a pretty well-stocked pantry at home, but there are lots of times I'd be willing to cook something up quickly if I could just swing by the store and pick up a couple of meal kits.

My problem with the mail order kits is that I have to plan the week before and I have to commit to multiple meals over the course of a week, neither of which are really a fit for me.
How OpenFaaS came to rescue us – Serverless Computing
No worries. I am old and started on the Internet in 1986. So use to it.

My only issue with negative Google posts is only to be fair. There is so many things today that are common place because of Google and their generosity in sharing their secrets.

Giving away basically Map/reduce and GFS and a big one is Borg and just so many other things. Plus all the open source.

That should be praised. Think a lot of the issues around Google of late are related to social politics. That is fine but should not bleed over into technology type things.

Someone has an issue in them firing Damore then say that but not that Google sucks at engineering or something like that.

Same with their business model primarily being ads. You might hate that which is fine but that does not mean they suck at engineering.
A few weeks/months/years of not being able to trade Bitcoins at old value is a real downside.

Don't judge JavaScript before you try it... it has a lot of good tooling around it, and a enthusiastic, and large community.

There is a reason companies like Netflix, and Walmart are heavily invested in using Node.js for their internal services.
And even then, would it not help us finally achieve something than constantly bicker over where "working class" and "middle class" starts and ends?

Does it not make far more sense to finally realise that there are people who work for money, in exchange for freedom (directly that. time, freedom, agency. that is what you exchange for money) and then there are people who use the work of others to ensure they never lose their own freedom? With blatant disregard for the wellbeing of those workers?

If that is where the dividing line was, things might finally change.

My concern with batteries is we're so gung ho on producing these, we haven't stopped to consider the environmental impact from the manufacturing process or the incredible task of recycling these once they've outlived their usefulness.

It reminds me a lot of when people pushed plastic for everything in order to save the trees and reduce paper consumption. Some 40 years later, we're now trying to get off plastic and dealing with massive environmental issues surrounding nearly every kind of plastic.

I started using StumbleUpon in high school, maybe around 2007. Until then my internet activity was pretty limited to Wikipedia and (oddly enough) Slate. StumbleUpon cracked that open -- the number of cool, strange websites I'd never have otherwise found was astonishing, like what I imagine the prototypical country bumpkin feels when they step off the bus in the big city.

Of course, I haven't used it in at least 5 years, so this news isn't so surprising. But it was a cool thing for a while.
Small microservers with cellphone class cores in them were something a few companies pursued but they never really took off. And there was one company with Atom based servers in the same space, it wasn't just all ARM A9s.

This one is about trading off minimum latency for more throughput with lots of more medium sized cores in a way that's probably better suited to most server workloads.

The article was about the lack of utility of testing for it in individual psychiatric cases. When you have a correlated problem like an entire school underperforming for no apparent reason (that is, even by the standards of a poor school, it is exceptionally poor), the math changes a lot. You have a rational reason to suspect some sort of correlated cause.
Elections are not synonymous with democracy. In fact, elections were actually seen as oligarchic and undemocratic in ancient Athens. Sortition, or random selection, is how they conducted their democracy. And they were right to do so, it is a much more democratic system.
I'll just share my biggest Awk-based project here: A tool that creates HTML documentation from Markdown comments in your source code.

It does essentially what Javadoc does, except it uses Markdown to format text, which I find much more pleasing to the eyes when you read source code.

The benefit of doing it in Awk is that if you want to use it in your project, you can just distribute a single script with your source code and add a two lines to your Makefile. Because of the ubiquity of Awk, you never have to worry whether people building your library has the correct tools installed.

It doesn't have all the features that more sophisticated tools like Doxygen provides, but I'm going to keep on doing the documentation for my small hobby projects this way.

Yes, it's about performance per watt, and also performance per dollar. The Intel chips lose badly by that measure. Also, TDP isn't necessarily the right figure of merit here. It's defined and measured differently by different vendors, so it's not always directly comparable. The more important and more directly comparable measure is actual system-wide consumption when running a defined workload.

> Apple of the past would do everything they could to be the best.

Sigh... Which Apple? Scott? Jobs I/Markkula? Sculley? Spindler? Amelio? Jobs II? You are aware that this all started before 2007? The Performa series, released under Spindlers watch, were arguably the lowest point in Apple's history. So let's not get too hyperbolic about the state of Siri, which is considerably better than you allude to. As to accuracy, Google links into the biggest search engine in the world, and Google seem to be ethically challenged when examining that data.

> They have had plenty of time now to make Apple Maps better. Here is a great comparison.

That is subjective. Objectively, Apples maps are significantly better than they were upon release 6 years ago. As I already pointed out, Google have a 7 year head start in an area that is neither parties core business, so good enough is all they need to be. Google Maps are useless to me as they cannot find my address. Apple maps can. For me, in and around London, Apple's maps have been objectively better than Googles. YMMV.

As to the article; building footprints make for better mapping? That's, like, your opinion man...
I don't think anyone is even considering to use TCP for interplanetary communication. You would use other protocol to communicate between planets and then only on earth you would switch to TCP or other protocol (depending what you would like to do) for fetching data from internet. Then get the data through proxy on earth and deliver it through this protocol to the other planet.

My knowledge of physics is very basic and practical engineering is zero, but storing hydrogen in compressed tanks always seem very impractical to me. It's the most freaking volatile element in the universe. And atomic hydrogen reacts with pretty much anything. Leakage and corrosion.

"Credit reporting agencies" in the USA sense aren't really a thing in EU, there are similar but substantially different (and nation-specific, not EU-wide) mechanisms of verifying the creditworthiness of customers, often with specific national laws regulating the usage this data which would override GDPR.

Furthermore "please delete my data" doesn't really mean "delete all my data", it means something like "I revoke whatever consent I gave and delete all my data that you now have no right to use" - so the company is allowed to keep all the data for which the GDPR gives them a right to use without your consent.

Between this and Zen, Intel is definitely starting to feel some heat. The next year or so is going to be interesting. Maybe Intel will recover; maybe we'll look back and see this as the point where they lost their grip.
This is a reasonable position and well-stated, but my concern is the implication that you will be vilified if you start a business that can't maintain a full time workforce with benefits.

So, let's say you're an investor. You've got the choice of:

1) invest in a business with traditional happy lifer employees

2) invest in a business that treats its workforce like disposable contractors and may eventually become an Enemy of the People's Press, but offers higher potential returns, and may be able to eke out an existence in a niche that #1 could never serve.

3) invest in some less active financial instrument alchemy that employs zero local people and threatens no publicity waves

There is (maybe) an argument that #1 is preferable to #2, but it's at least complicated. However, I think it's general agreed that both #1 & #2 are preferable to #3.

If we're already talking Unions and unfair treatment of contractors 5 years into the existence of a type 1 here, one that no one knows could even exist under traditional employment circumstances, we may very well be driving funding into the reduced hassle of #3.

That's certainly what it would do to me, though granted my "fuck it" threshold is 5-10x lower than the average person's.
> However, to store 360 Wh of potential electrical energy, the system requires a storage reservoir of 18 m3, the size of a small room measuring 3x3x2 metres. The authors note that “although the tank size appears very large, it still makes sense for applications in rural areas”.

This would light a home for an hour, with LED bulbs and careful usage. And all it requires is a room-sized storage tank.

So if I wanted something that ran my house all night, I'd need a storage tank larger than said house.

They didn't forget - it's addressed in detail. They are advocating "small scale"

The low efficiency is mainly since air heats up during compression. This waste heat, which holds a large share of the energy input, is dumped into the atmosphere. A related problem is that air cools down when it is decompressed, lowering electricity production and possibly freezing the water vapour in the air. To avoid this, large-scale CAES plants heat the air prior to expansion using natural gas fuel, which further deteriorates the system efficiency and makes renewable energy storage dependent on fossil fuels.
From what I think, the President should not block anyone from access to information regardless of their political stance. But on the other hand, he would be wrong if he blocked anyone from the White House's handle. But he only blocked them from his personal account, which is his First Ammendment right.

As a private citizen, if the POTUS cannot block people from his personal twitter, it will be illegal for me to block my stalker, a kid cannot block a bully. This is not good.
Wait a minute. Isn't bitcoin supposed to be immune from this?
I hope they do something with it though. Whether sell it to someone who can be a good caretaker to it, share lessons and designs with other companies that could then build upon it, spinning it off, whatever they choose. Just abandoning it outright seems like an unfortunate move. I won't say bad, because I'm sure they have their reasons, but unfortunate in that it seemed like it was on track to be viable.

Microsoft's Surface Pro line, to me, was kind of an "eh, that's nice I guess" up until the Pro 3 at which point it seemed like a platform that had hit its stride. The stuff I was reading on Amberwing seemed like it wasn't a silver bullet, but what it did work for, it worked very well when comparing price vs performance so one could hope that with time, they could make it even better.
Lack of options, obviously.

Yes, I am new to all of this so I see the electron hate because of the resource usage but then never see any meaningful discussion on what people would rather be used.

It seems to be this Qt thing which appears to have it's own tradeoffs (which are?) and then...is that it? So is it going to be a case of not having any cross platform desktop apps or having something that uses 2-300mb of RAM that developers won't give you street cred for?

Maybe the focus should be on making electron more performant. Sounds like MS has found a way to do it with VS Code so doesn't that sound like a better alternative than to not have any cross platform apps?

Edit: unless the code within the emulator is trying to run the BIOS within an emulator of its own. Turtles all the way down...
80s were still fairly early for Internet access. I was on the ARPANET as early as 1979 or so but just trading the occasional email in a lab. "Real" internet access, first at work and then through my BBS, was probably more like the early 1990s.

The bigger deal is how easily hydrogen leaks. H2 is small enough to squeeze through tiny holes in rubber or plastic gaskets. It's fine in a car, but keeping it in big tanks for months is something else. At least when it leaks it floats away rather than collect on the floor looking for a reason to ignite.
>Can a product be considered a failure if it was never made available for sale to the public?

Yes.
I wonder how well it would work to have a compressed air storage system where the tank is in a loop with a solar water heating system. The heat from the loop could be used to provide heated water, or maybe drive something like a Stirling engine. You could use the output of the Stirling engine to compress a bit more air using the waste heat.
