This is a sound advice. I spent 10 years of my life trying to squeeze as much time awake time as I can using tons of coffee and that almost ruined my life and got me nowhere. I have managed to get some success in life once I gave up on that idea and was productive when I was feeling productive without forcing it. If I can't do anything during the day? Fine. If I feel sleepy? I go to sleep. It was important though, to wake up at the same time in the morning. I was unable to kick off the coffee addiction, but reduced it just one cup in the morning. I find coffee more difficult to quit than cigarettes.
It's not super expensive or time-consuming to throw up a standard, American stick-built house.

> Does the planet really need more gasoline?

Are you just going to buy everyone new cars? Or replace all existing vehicles?

I mean I'm all for electric cars and other modes of transport, but the problem is that we have an existing infrastructure that will take a long time to replace. As an example, the vehicle I drive is from '97. I still see people driving cars from the early 90's (or even 80's) as their daily driver. (And it is more common for poorer people to drive older cars).

So do we need a new gasoline? Yes, unless you want to either replace 30+ years of vehicles, or wait that long.

Worse of all is that this abbreviation must have come from someone who had no idea what cryptocurrencies are; someone who thought it was "magical WoW money but better".

It's not necessary to be a functional language to have this feature, but in the past it has been the case that mostly functional languages are the ones that do.

The reason I think this happened, is that the language designers of languages like C had things like machine code generation at the top of their mind when writing the language, not abstractions.

Once decisions were made in that mindset, you start making things very difficult to add this without having edge cases.

Anyway, C++ finally has enough features to support this, and the committee will accept it into the standard soon-ish. (Mind you, of course you will still be able to do foolishness like:

std::cout << static_cast<TrustMeImPrintable>(0);

P.S. The feature you need to support this is to be able to pick the types our of the "format sting" (whatever type you use to represent that object), and run a check against the types of the arguments, at compile time.
Out of curiosity, are you not in the U.S.? These types of lane dividers are incredibly common throughout the country.

I’ve always found it odd that house construction is so bespoke.

Anything else falls into the dreaded "modular home" category. You know, just one step above a single-wide trailer, at least in the minds of some. Never mind the fact that the only thing separating my ungodly expensive house in Redmond, which sits on a slab, from a modular home is that it was built onsite. "Bespoke"? phhhffft, I can find you a dozen houses within the radius of our daily dog walk that are exactly the same.

Personally, I think the status quo is equivalent to Ford dropping a box of parts at your local dealership, and you have to wait for the mechanic to assemble it. Why aren't robots framing my house in a factory somewhere?
Well, India's industry has been driven by _market demand_.The market for large scale app dev work has been more profitable and better outside of India because there was more money chasing those projects outside of India. If you want to be a successful business, sell what people are buying.
Here in Germany, I remember quite a articles about the EU tariffs, arguments following similar lines as here: "dumping prices kill local manufacturers, tariffs compensated and/or forced companies to adjust pricing on one side" vs "local companies still in bad shape or dead, less business for installers, less build-out of solar happened". Especially the last renewal was fairly controversial.

Law is logic but it's soft logic. So yes all we need is to get AI to understand the concept of mercy, basically to capture the spirit, the 'why' of the law instead of the 'what'.

A lot of the dumb laws where mercy is frequently allowed are that way because they were designed to be, as catch-alls for harder to define grievances. An AI 'judge' just needs to understand what it means to be a good person.

Of course then that could be expanded to an AI which simply tallies moral points and for which a given person committing a given crime gets a punishment designed to best rehabilitate them not to commit the crime again. But that would also be a system which is judge jury and executioner and not even human, and has some self-designed ultimate moral code...thats a lot to get right, and a lot to go wrong.

The capital class wants most people to be extremely risk averse so they can take the whole upside of everything. For them ideally every bit of economic activity you do is insured by them.

The capital class has more control over politics and culture than (possibly) ever, although the dam is starting to break, as you see with more and more independent musicians, restaurants, etc. I.e. we’re close to the crest, not sure if we just passed it or are about to.
Shrug. Maybe they do have everything they need for self-driving in terms of hardware. Given that no one has full self-driving, no one has an actual list of the necessary hardware.

Caffeine disrupts the quality of sleep even if you are not aware and feel like you are sleeping fine. I'm not saying this is the cause of any issues you have, but just want that to be considered.

Attention and focus have strong correlations with sleep quality. I say this as a fellow "ADD-er", and only point this out because, being in the health field, I see so many people who completely neglect proper sleep hygiene and then wonder why they feel like crap all the time. This makes me suspect that most of the population has no clue how important proper sleep is to quality of life.

There are some places doing things similar to the Factory OS but for home. 100% prefab homes have a certain stigma in the US due to quality issues. Also many people want an at least somewhat customized home so there's limits to what can be pre-assembled. There are some parts that are being pre-assembled offsite and trucked to the home like the Factory OS in the article. It's just mainly the framing etc that is predone then the customized elements like flooring and fixtures are added on site.

One big factor preventing us from doing the same thing as the article for homes is the need to support customization. With a large apartment complex there's enough of the exact same sets of rooms being created that building them all out then shipping out makes sense, trying the same thing for homes (without a change to people accepting much more identical housing) would require stocking and setting up a lot of different tile and hardwood and loosing scale efficiencies.
Erin Brockovich and A Civil Action (about groundwater pollution) are both good examples, yes.

I guess it depends when the article starts its timeline. I was trying to think of movies from the 2010s or so, because I can think of a lot of tech CEO villains in that span but not many non-tech CEO villains. My best guess at why is that action films with corporate villains look better with tech companies. (For instance, Robocop is way older than the article's timeframe, but fits the same villain narrative.)
This is dead end and really should be illegal to force employees to do that. I hate when companies are trying to squeeze every inch of you, just to get their sorry startup some funding to burn.

Always thought that Germany has fair employment laws.

I disagree. At the core RL is just updating a table of values, and then using function approximation (aka, machine learning) for more complex cases.

I think it might be perceived as being math heavy because the best resources on the topic [0][1] use a lot of math notation to express their ideas. The ideas are subtle and easy to mess up though. I think these books are some of the first that made me appreciate math notation, it can look scary, but it does convey the ideas more accurately than words can.

> In fact if green is what you want, nuclear (or if we are lucky Fusion) is the way to go but the environmental organizations are for some reason worried about that.

> It's not just a matter of the market and political will,

That's absolutely untrue, nuclear is waaaaaaay too expensive and old-fashioned to compete in the modern world.

Take a few seconds to look at any of the attempts at construction in the Western world. Nuclear is super expensive, and not nearly scalable enough. In the US, Vogtle and VC Summer have been nuclear disasters, but economic disasters. They had a super-supportive regulatory environment and neighbors around the construction sites, but it's just not feasible to build at a reasonable cost.

Nuclear is such a terrible idea that there's no way to get private funding for it; it has to have huge amounts of government level backing for it to become even vaguely economic feasible. Look at the UK's attempts to sell their nuclear generation capacity, all of a sudden when they were writing financial documents they had to not lie, and they couldn't get anybody to buy them. And now the UK has the economic disaster of the new Hinkley construction.

There's a batch of small-moduler reactor (SMR) startups that may improve the cost and scalability of nuclear, but I'm extremely skeptical. Such SMRs have long been rejected as too costly, it's not at all clear what would make them competitive now. It may happen, but it's further out than the massive scale-back of fossil fuels.

> there are some fundamental limits on how much energy we can get from solar and wind.

These "fundamental" limits are not in the realm of possibility of limiting our current use.

>They are linear solutions to exponential problems so to speak.

I'm not sure what part could be exponential. Our energy use is nothing like exponential, and in developed countries it is increasingly decoupled from GDP and other exponential things. Most of our "energy" use is actually wasted energy due to the inherent inefficiency of thermal electricity generation, or, god forbid, the pathetic efficiency of combustion engines in vehicles.

We don't yet have applications for energy that could come close to any "fundamental limit" from solar. If we do, then perhaps fusion or something will be useful, but fusion is even more of a pipedream than trying to construct
I've just started using Kubernetes on VM's on-premise (not cloud) and all of the ingresses available (both nginxes and HAProxy) just suck. Documentation is terrible or they just don't work. Somehow I came across Ambassador and within 15 minutes I had ingress working in my Kubernetes test cluster. Granted, I'm a newb when it comes to Kubernetes. But Ambassador just worked right out of the box for me. Configuring it is simple and the concepts are easy to grasp. Plus it's built on Envoy which I believe is pretty battle-tested.

Yes, because cause and effect isn't so clear. A child who got molested might end up traumatized and end up as a predator themselves. Or become a victim later in life once more because he/she attracts them.

The question is in the why. What happened that someone committed a crime? And was the crime that awful to begin with? Wozniak and Jobs did phone phreaking in the 70s. Didn't get busted, but only because the cop didn't recognize a blue box. Something simple such as cannabis isn't decriminalized in the USA yet, yet the prisons are full with cheap labour... I mean, prisoners who possessed or sold cannabis. In my country, guns are pretty much illegal, and cannabis is decriminalized. The amount of robberies and shootings on schools is near 0. The amount of people in jail due to cannabis is also near 0. Talk about creating basketball players out of nothing.

"Your appeal has been denied."

You're still considering a just and fair government/system, you've just moved the "just and fair" bit from "the police" to "the judge issuing the warrant". There are a fair number of people who have absolutely no trust in their (or any) government and consider the potential for government overreach. The best way to prevent government overreach is to make sure there is nothing they can reach for.

Some people have no issue with the government knowing their "harmless personal activities". While another group of some people believe the government has absolutely no right to know what's going on in their personal lives no matter how mundane.
