I had house that had a high quality ceiling fan that always made noise. It was high and hard to reach but after perilous ladder work I discovered it wasn't the fan; it had been wired up wrong, the variable speed control was wired up across the two separate 120v legs supplying the home with electricity. I was surprised that the fan even worked at all that way. I don't know who wired it up originally.

I'm not an electrician so correct me if I'm wrong, but for those unfamiliar with residential wiring in US homes, ordinarily homes are supplied with two out of phase 110VAC lines. Heavy appliances like electric clothes driers and electric car charging points use the 220VAC that I available between the two "hot" lines. Everything else in the house use either one of the "hot" lines (black wires according to the national electrical code). There are actually 3 wires going to each outlet, light, etc. though the house: one black (belonging to one of the two sources of 110VAC), one white (called the neutral line, approximately 0V above ground, and one green a separate green wire that is connected to ground around the point where power enters the house.

This seems to me primarily about the wages versus cost of living in the places where construction demand is high. I would also point to this as a death spiral for a housing bubble.

The article mentions labor commuting from Sacramento to SF where the wages are higher, thus driving up prices in Sacramento due to lack of supply. That kind of domino effect eventually makes it so SF can't get labor because the labor has shifted to live 90' outside of Sacramento and commute there instead. At some point wages do have to go up, driving up costs further in a vicious cycle.

I don't know when but I believe another broad housing market collapse is coming.
If you're into hardware hacking, almost all big camera brands (Canon, Nikon, Sony) have (unofficial) custom firmwares [1] that enhance the functionality of the original ones.

I have a Sony mirrorless one that is locked to Japanese language and I can't be happier to have it unlocked with the custom firmware.

Inside Apple’s 20-Year March to $1 Trillion From the Brink of Bankruptcy

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yakhchāl

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faloodeh

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bastani_Sonnati

Aside, the end of the video mentions that Americans and Iranians prefer sweeter ice cream, while Europeans prefer ice cream with less fat and sugar.

I'm American and I find most American ice cream too sweet. I much prefer Italian-style ice cream (gelato) and custards for this reason. I also have a thing against modern thickeners. There needs to be an ice cream equivalent of the Reinheitsgebot. :-)

There is one exception: if you like the taste of cream, Panna cotta is very easy to make and a delicious dessert served with fresh fruit. It is thickened with gelatin instead of being a custard, so the cream flavor really comes through. To me it's even better than Philadelphia-style ice cream, which is also made without eggs.

I recently tried Thai rolled ice cream and did not care for it at all. There is almost no air in it (overrun) since it isn't churned, so I found the texture not at all pleasing.
Yes, sure, because the programmer is the oracle of testing.

There are redundancies that should be set up in the development process for this reason.

Admitting the mistake gives you nothing but low opinion of everyone involved. (which is in itself sad)
The only thing to do is to set up whole systems to prevent them from arising again. But that is expensive so is not done. Instead, everyone is moderately discontented with the junk they use.

Then you choose not to perform manual labor. In an ideal situation, the market will pay people a premium for choosing to sacrifice their bodies, assuming everyone is competing on a level playing field and you don't have a huge supply of undereducated workers from another country who have no other options.

BMW has definitely decided that the X vehicles are what Americans will buy if they want cargo space. Those of us who have no desire to drive an SUV or "Crossover" seem to be the minority these days, unfortunately.

BMW is hitting it out of the park with the M2, but their mass market vehicles of the G generation seem to be missing the point as the market moves to EVs.

Hopefully VW will knock it out of the park w/the Taycan and it's charging network.
And this is how you cause an economy to collapse, by raising inflation.

Why would an organized group use one account to make thousands of edits in their own favour? That would make it really obvious it's coming from one source and make themselves far easier to spot.

The fact he's a conservative poster, with people on both sides showing highly-politicized tendencies (including his favourite targets for abuse who themselves are known for highly polarizing politics) my default response here it to be highly skeptical of claims that it is some organized grand scheme by some party, intel agency, or group of rich people to manipulate the world for the worse.

That secret "cabal" behind everything bit is a cliche pattern in political conspiracy theories.

There have been plenty of individual Wikipedia editors with an inhuman-amount of work they contributed. You find prolific contributors like that in open-source projects all the time too.

How would this keep bitcoin miners from becoming locals? I assume locals would receive rebates in direct ratio to the amount of electricity used, thus local miners would still win the exact same amount. If locals don't receive rebates in proportion to usage, there will be a lot of people "living" there who don't actually live there for the free money.
Well I could be paranoid but you could just follow the money.

I thought part of Bitcoin's design is to use the cost of electricity as a way to prevent wide-scale mining?

Anyway, turning off power to mining companies will just trigger investment in better off-grid power solutions. It's a double-win for everyone else.

In European schools, students are generally not graded by the teacher durectly, but through tests (though the teachers produce reports to parents).
Thus, the option for the teacher to dole out an F to phone (ab)users is not available.

Thankfully.

Personally I think the American system whereby your grades are dictated by your teacher is quite vulnerable to all kinds of issues, but maybe I misunderstand that system.
the problem is invariably with upstream making assumptions and changes on a whim, not with distros.

As for linux on the desktop, until there is a credible brand offering a credible pre-installed computer, via credible outlets, backed by a credible support service, and MS actually allows them to exist beyond the first revision, then you will have your Linux on the desktop independent of all the effort (or anti-effort) the big DEs etc put in.

At some point this is going to become the limiting factor for EV adoption, but I don't think we're there yet. The market's small enough that single-family homeowners can sustain it.

BTW, depending on where you live, you may be able to have a charging station installed (at your expense). In Hawaii, condo associations must allow the installation of charging stations. Less useful for apartment renters, but possibly still an option. You can read stories on Tesla forums of renters who convinced their apartment owners to spring for a bank of charging spots, though it's an effort.

And there are people who make it work without home charging. I did that for a year before I got my own charging station installed, but for anyone who puts serious miles on their car, it's a nightmare--a green version of Mad Max--hunting for an opening in one of the few public spots. Wouldn't recommend it.
OK, Wikipedia uses open-source software, so one could clearly branch that. And given Creative Commons licensing, I suppose that one could clone the entire site, as the basis for an alternative. Providing attribution, and marking changes, would be somewhat hairy, but conceivably doable.

And indeed, I see that Larry Sanger has been championing a blockchain-based alternative, Everipedia.[1] Wikipedia calls it "commercial".[2] And I see that its business model relies so far on ads and sponsorship notices.

However, I gather that they didn't just clone existing Wikipedia content. But accounts are invite-only, and I don't do either Telegram or Reddit. I wonder why they didn't use Wikipedia content. Maybe they don't want to use Creative Commons licensing.

Edit: Damn, Telegram wants a mobile number, which Mirimir doesn't have. So is there another way to get an invitation to Everipedia?

Overall, the scientists compared their torso strategies to joystick control in 39 individuals. They found that torso drone control outperformed joystick control in precision, reliability and with minimal training sessions.

What does the word 'waste' mean to you? Why would you use this word to describe what is done by the proof of work?

If you think cryptocoins have no utility, then it stands to reason that the proof of work is wasteful. And beyond: the time and money spent by developers, corporations, exchanges, etc: all waste.

But if you think that cryptocoins do have some utility, then it seems unfair to call it a "proof-of-waste". The PoW is the only way to equitably mint new currency.
i do not feel perfectly safe or fine with humans driving. i hate driving in the area i live because no matter how much i pay attention, it is simply an unsafe environment with the amount of cars, scooters, bicyclists, and pedestrians within the given infrastructure. however, my ability to predict both good and bad behavior in these environments helps a lot. there is no way i see automated vehicles handling city driving in dense urban areas any time soon.

of course safety is important. and i agree that verifying driving ability is well behind where it should be. elderly and inexperienced and inattentive and just plain bad drivers are major problems on the roads.

and fault certainly does matter. aside from legal responsibility, we are emotional beings. there is a difference between getting hit by a drunk driver versus a true accident. that affects people in real ways. as a motorcycle driver, i will be terrified of these automated vehicles. i am already terrified of human drivers, but i can often predict their idiocracy.

no one wants to be killed by a machine, especially one built by wide-eyed engineers.

And both words have a one letter difference, which makes an easy typo, and could slip past an editor, I suppose. You’re centering on the disparate meaning of the words, leading to incredulity, when you might do better to focus on the question of how such an obvious mistake slipped through the cracks.

IOW, yeah, it’s a crap article, but not for this reason.
No. It defines advertising.

Neighborhoods imply far more than geography; things like culture, traditions, cooperation, people define a neighborhood. This is, among other things, the contents of trust. The idea of a foundation on which to make a happy life amongst they neighbors can involve many different things, so it’s vague, but the most important part is that the participants themselves are who develops the neighborhood; not capitalists trying to profit from it.

Gentrification is a prime example of where this becomes a cruel and unusual form of manipulation, but it’s not the only one.

What Google is doing should absolutely be considered a crime.
It's interesting because in Europe fishing has become an expensive pastime - that might prove the OP's point. When on vacation in Cape Cod I was pleased that fishing rights in sweetwater seem to be some kind of common property. In Europe it's state property that is licensed to private associations that sell things like daily permits which amount to around 15 to 30 euros.
... they aren't paying workers more though, because there's no unions around to give the workers enough bargaining power.
This is why unions are needed -- a random worker needs his job more than the company needs him, and is not on equal bargaining footage.

If your argument actually worked, then they would be paying workers more. But they aren't, so it doesn't work, and unions are needed.

Don't get afraid because our website is in German because we hire English speakers for technical roles, too.

We have a "engineering over management" culture. Our CTO, worked with Erich Gamma at IBM (Gang of Four) and our team of 25 developers consists of great people both from a technical and "social" perspective.

What we do:

- Tailored web apps with heavy number crunching on the server - e.g., we build the software analyzing all the weather data in Switzerland.

- We are building a SaaS product for Yoga studios in Zurich that can be adjusted to other local businesses with a few clicks, meaning that you can adjust it for the needs of hairdressers without having to code.

People say our interview process is awesome:

1) Phone screen with our CTO

2) Two sessions of remote pair-programming with our engineers (no Google-like algorithmic questions but reasonable pair-programming tasks).

3) Onsite half a day with us. We pay your stay in Zurich and travel expenses.

That is only an argument for more assistive solutions. Just because humans have faults doesn't mean we should replace them with computers that are very likely to be even more dangerous. Augment, not replace should be the aim. And seems to be the aim for most manufacturers, but not Tesla. They have to claim full autonomy.
Waymo pretty top-secret about their hardware, so I'm not sure. I would venture to guess that if they don't have a custom ASIC yet they're working on one. I know they had Intel FPGAs and it's a safe bet they've integrated Google's tensor core architecture.

Of course it's a thermodynamics problem. It takes less energy to split a hydrocarbon chain into CO2 + Water than it does to capture the CO2 out of the air and turn it back into solid carbon.

In essence, what we have to do is "all the energy output since the industrial revolution--do it again (plus then some), except this time instead of building civilization, capture co2 out of the air. And you must get all that energy from clean sources."

"Growing massive tropical rainforests" just means "inefficiently use solar energy (via photosynthesis) to bind carbon out of the air". We could do the same with solar panels and a carbon-binding chemical process.

But the issue is, again, the sheer magnitude of the problem.

I hate looking at spinners on my computer because some software is hung up here or there.

I am prototyping a "desktop" search application which hits a number of sources and interacts with them by their protocol (maybe it gets full hits from bing but just gets identifiers from pubmed and has to look up the identifiers)

This can never show a spinner but instead keep the UI live all the time, filling in results as soon as they become available.
