Vacuum is widely known to be a pretty good insulator. Ever had a mug with vacuum insulation? They hold heat/cold very well.

If you're doing industrial-scale processes in outer space, you're going to need some pretty massive radiators. A cold planet with lots of liquid coolant available is much more ideal.

Melting/vaporizing ice from the Kuiper belt might work OK, but it's also likely to be full of dust and other shit that will clog your cooling system up.
> I wonder if the issues that they encounter are more a symptom of trying to "bolt on" react-native.

Exactly. React native shines exactly in your situation, not when you already have a few developers who can write native code for each platform, and especially not when you already have an established app for each platform.
That's certainly the author's thesis: binary division, lumping a spectrum of opinion into two diametric extremes. It's a popular narrative and rarely, if ever, representative. It would be much easier to assess how true it is in this case if there were any insight given into the issues themselves.

I tend to agree fully with your assessment of the labels, but is it a coincidence that people's behavior online during these kinds of situations are divided already? And the labels aren't creating the divide, but only describing it?

I've found on both sides of an argument about a person's behavior (ie, depraved, evil, despicable, etc...) was ignored when the arguer discovered that person shared their "groups" view point.

I think (in my experience) it's extremely rare that people don't pick a side, and generalities do have uses in communication.

Unless you think only one side uses labels to create two sides? Where the other side is innocent of this behavior? (a silly question)
Okay, I think I get it.

Given that humans are pretty good swimmers and divers, and even have little webbing between fingers and toes, I'd say we have an innate understanding of fluid dynamics rather than aerodynimcs, with aerodynamics being a special case of fluid dynamics.

I.e. we have an innate ability to identify a good swimmer's body, because we as a species are (potentially) good swimmers.
> […] "Lolicon" is a Japanese word that's partly a loanword from "Lolita" in English; […]

Etymologically, it is a Japanese portmanteau derived from 'lolita complex', which is waseigo (Japanese words comprised of English words) meaning someone attracted to, or an attraction to, prepubescent girls (not boys, so it is not completely analogous to paedophile).

> So how does the author say that lolicon being acceptable is a mainstream view?

He seems to extrapolate from the acceptance of it in (large) online Japanese communities.
+1 Rust, but be warned: the learning curve is high.
I work with similar language to you and Rust not only sheds light on low level concerns and safety, but also has an excellent type system. Programming Rust by Blandy and Orendorff, the online Rust Book, and the Rust By Example website are all good resources.

Rust is a lot more verbose than a language like Elixir so it might feel like wading through mud for a while.

I'm also throwing out the suggestion of a Lisp. Homoiconic macros are interesting and difficult. I'm currently reading Let Over Lambda by Doug Hoyte and it's like there's a whole world of technique I had no idea existed.

[...]

Why do you say corporate stores like its a bad thing? Keep in mind, even if you contend that they're moving profit out of the community they are still creating jobs inside that community. Someone needs to stock the shelves, bag the groceries and pump the gas.

That seems like a contradiction. Creating jobs is not the ultimate goal, the ultimate goal should be to provide usable public infrastructure.

If you create jobs all you want but at the same time move the profit from those jobs away (because the company stores don't have to pay taxes either) then what exactly is won?

Challenges of the Automotive Industry in the Face of Autonomous Driving
Exactly. You don't need to be in DRAM / NAND or SemiConductor Industry, any industry are the same in their "projected" demand. There are always the intention they over project it, especially to those analysts reporting those figures, it is in their best interest to have DRAM / NAND maker to expand their capacity while they get much lower price.

Then there is the maths of 20% increase in "bits".

You see you don't need to build new fab to have increase in "bits" capacity. 3D NAND, 3D DRAM, EUV DRAM which Samsung is working on. Sub 10nm Node which Samsung / Micron are also working on and coming soon. All of these will increase their "bits" capacity without substantial investment. And as DDR5 standardise with larger maximum capacity per bank, better yield and leading node, and an expected increase of "bits" capacity by 50%+ in the next 3 years. Who will be there to say we will sell 50% more in 3 years time? Especially when Mobile sales are already slowing.

There is the China question. Before any media coverage started in late 2017 and 2018. China had always have plan to have their own DRAM and NAND Fab, with government money started pouring in 2015. That is, in the worst possible situation, assuming China somehow suddenly understand how to make DDR4, LPDDR4, what is there to stop them the race to bottom, and their massive influx of cash to build out new Fabs to bring huge capacity into the industry. Are you really willing to burn your own money, in the tens of billions against a nation?

Look at what happen to Steel, Solar Panel, etc The only difference is making DRAM is a lot harder then those two. I specifically leave out NAND here because 3D NAND are even harder for them to understand and grasp.

And I too, wanted cheaper DRAM and NAND. And I know in the old Cartel working, where they actually "reduce" capacity and hold price together via talks. But right now, I think the market dynamics is that they don't need to do any of these tricks to get what they wanted.

> If it becomes standard practice for all except certain large corporations to ban all EU addresses, how will this impact the web and the EU?

That would be great, because better solutions with less monopoly would quickly spring up if those corporations don't make deals with publishers. That's just hypothetical, counterfactual speculation, though, since corporations like Google would make deals.

Like others have pointed out, these regulations will primarily have bad effects on small content providers such as individual authors, small forum sites, and not for profit information-providers.

> People do actually need social media, poor people and underprivileged communities especially.

Lower classes need time, money and knowledge. None of that comes out of social media, even LinkedIn is a big reach.

I'm blue collar myself by the way. The attention spans of my coworkers are shot and the younger they are the worse it gets. You're supposed to have a short term memory of about 5-7 items - today it's about 2-3. That's an immense cost.

If you talk of groups with intense focus like the forums peripheral to some activity - that is completely different to what social media is.

You know what blue collar workers need? Self Driving cars. Silicon Valley should concentrate on making that deliverable because it is itself distracted.

Sure but often immoral motives have positive side affects.

If the Internet went down tomorrow for about a week, I wager the general sentiment would that of relief. It could be an annual holiday from the information stream.

It's like how when people stop watching television news they become less neurotic.

I feel like you aren't even trying to understand what this conversation is about. The analogy between Java and the Web-* technologies is pretty obvious, unless you want to pretend you've never encountered the phrase "write once, run anywhere". Java was at least constructed from the start with the intention of hosting full-featured applications and giving them access to things like low-level networking APIs while providing a high-performance JIT environment. All of that functionality is being grafted piecemeal onto JavaScript to bring the browser up to the same level of capability, but this time the tradeoffs are even more severe. The browser can now provide an application platform that approaches the capabilities of something like Java when viewed at a high level, but it's even worse at providing good usability (particularly in the areas of integration with the host OS and accessibility), still can't match the feature set of the Java ecosystem, makes it almost impossible to interface with existing code that wasn't written to run in the browser, and makes it harder to achieve good performance.

I don't even like Java, but at least I can recognize that it's a more mature solution to the same general problem, and Java doesn't try as hard to ignore the hard parts of cross-platform development. The past decade of scope creep within browsers can be summarized as: providing mediocre solutions to problems that already have widely available good solutions.

I'm being a pedant here, and this isn't really relevant to the previous commenters point, but worth noting that one of the known dangers of cannibalism (CJD) is less related to typical sterilisation and not quite as well understood in general, so 100% guarantees are hard to come by.
Great write-up, however I have concerns over the security of this product, especially the part where they submit a Slack token directly over email.

Email itself is not secure, but at the very least an attacker intercepting a single message will only get the content of that message. An attacker intercepting the token will however gain persistent, remote access to all their current & future Slack messages with no way for the user to even know they've been compromised.

The corporate policies I've had to read (without much interest as it's not relevant to my work) do not allow hospitality and entertainment for public officials unless it has been specially authorised by a senior lawyer, which suggests it's not clearly illegal in itself, though of course any attempt to "improperly influence" the official would be illegal.

Obviously it would be bad PR to be involved with the sordid stuff in the article but I'm curious about the legal aspect.

How Much Does It Cost of a Tour and Travel App Development
Am I understanding correctly that in the tests not the actual prototype will fly, but rather F/A-18s that somehow mimic the wave patterns generated by the X-59?
How does that work?
Yep. It's more of a philosophical experiment than something that is backed by perfect hard science. The point remains that most people (at least outside of the tribes that practice it) would find it completely wrong even when given hypothetical perfect guarantees.
Completely agree on this. Cheating on someone (be it a spouse or a business partner) is the definition of being untrustworthy.

To be clear, obviously I don’t mind how and with who people are spending their nights, as long as they are not deceiving someone. It’s a shame that open relationships are not more accepted, but that’s not an excuse because nobody forced a cheating person to take an engagement in the first time.
>I suppose the general reasoning is "innocent until proven otherwise", not the opposite.

You are absolutely correct, but, if anyone knows China, there is no such thing as no government backing. ( Which is a rather sad truth and hopes to be proven wrong, but highly unlikely so )
Say “baseless” then, if that’s what you mean.

Both of the words “intellect” and “bankrupt” have strong personal connotations. I think you want them to mean something different than what they do.
As I said: yes, yes they do exactly that.

I'm not sure how to interpret the argument of the article or the results in the appendix here.

The first table shows AdamW having the best results, which follows the argument of the article. However, the following three tables all have plain Adam producing the best results.

Instead, today, we got 3 times more flights, with lumbering planes that refuse to climb to their altitude to save fuel (and get the pilot a bonus) and instead of having ONE concorde a day and having to deal with it, there's a plane every 20 seconds.
