No it does not boil down to population. That is a false believe that people have been pushing since the 60s and has been proven wrong over and over again.

Its equally false that deforestation has to do with food wastage. And the 'solution' is not 'incremental improvements in lifestyle".

In the west forest and the wild are actually coming back, even while we have food waste and "bad" lifestyle. Evidence shows that with 'modern' methods actually uses less land and gives you higher yields.

Europe today is way less farmed far less then in the middle ages, forest are growing in Germany, Britain. Wild animals wolfs, bears and so on are coming back to Europe.

The problem is poverty, low productivity, bad institutions and misaligned intensives for central governments compared to the people living close to the woods. And the solution is for the government and society there to change these things, not westerns eating more leftovers rather then throwing it away.

Yep. I'm hopeful that someone will inevitably turn up in the comments and reveal a great way to do it but everything I've seem is just janky and awkward.

I've basically stopped using my static site as a result of media management being a pain. I'm probably going to do back to Wordpress or something (shock horror!). Wordpress isn't hard to manage at all quite frankly, it's just a different set of compromises compared to a static site. It's also super easy to manage rich media and as I'm falling squarely on the side of 'get shit done' it's looking like a good option.

It's trivial to cache it well and update it. Yeah it's not as secure but there's a risk vs usability judgement that has to be made. And I think I'd prefer to be producing content and having some good backups rather than just not use my site.
This number is actually a lot lower than previous estimate, which is close to double those number.

Apple sell roughly 60%+ Flagship iPhone every year, that is close to 140M unit, it would cost them roughly $2 per unit. As far as I am concern, I don't think Qualcomm sells anywhere close to that number of SD845, although the design cost can be utilise in their mid range phone at a later date.

And it basically means from 7nm onwards, Only a few companies can afford using leading node, namely Apple, Qualcomm, Huawei, Samsung, Nvidia and AMD. Other smaller players like Mediatek might have to wait longer before adopting it.

I would agree for the most part. I also would want to see a successful DM1 flight before hopping aboard a crewed SpaceX flight.

But with recent events around Soyuz I'd be slightly hesitant there as well. A year ago I would have fully agreed with you, but the infamous drilled hole, now this - I'd at least wait for the investigation to return a reason of failure to be able to determine whether I'd feel safe. If it's again human error during construction, I probably wouldn't get on board.
This seems plausible to me. It’s something that has been hypothesized for a while, it’s not proposing anything implausible like ftl neutrinos, and the effect seems small enough to explain why we haven’t seen them before.

RMF, DIACAP, SCAP, STIGs, CCI Website
I found it cumbersome to find the linkages between things like CCI Items, SV_Rule #'s and RMF Controls. I decided to throw a website together to help keep things straight. Check it out:

https://cyber.trackr.live

The RMF page will show you all the RMF controls NIST published. The buttons at the top of this page filter what controls show up below. In the control listing, clicking the blue control button will show you the control details. In the details view, you will also see clickable buttons for other related RMF controls, DIACAP controls and CCI Items. The DIACAP link will show you all the DIACAP controls, with similar filters at the top.

The STIG and SCAP pages will show you a list of all the tracked STIGS and SCAPS. Clicking on the STIG or SCAP title will show you all the requirements for that STIG or SCAP. The requirements are also linked with 'blue' buttons to view specific requirement details. If multiple versions/releases of the same STIG/SCAP are tracked, there will also be a compare button on the main listing page that will allow you to view the changes in the specific STIG/SCAP over time.

Finally, there is a custom built search engine that will allow you to search on keywords, terms or IDs. For instance, searching for 'CCI-002095' will show you that there is one RMF control linked to that CCI (CA-8) and one DIACAP Control linked (VIVM-1). Searching for 'V-1080' shows about 90 individual SCAPs/STIGs related to that vulnerability ID. Searching for 'SV-29474r1_rule' returns about 24 STIGs/SCAPs that have that rule contained.

The search engine also allows for quoted phrases, so if you search for "password complexity" you will see related RMF, DIACAP, CCI and STIG/SCAPs.

This is a brand new site at a very beta level, but it might prove useful with what you do. Check it out sometime. Feedback is always welcome.

This may not be the answer you are looking for, but any plant will grow if you have a good light source and the right amount of water and nutrients. Add a grow light and some vermiculite to the soil and you can grow just about 90% of the plants available at your local gardening store.
Bamboo and cactus are two easy choices. I keep a pair next to my bedroom window. It's amazing how much impact having a few plants in your house can have.

It’s called a god complex? But the pragmatic reasoning is that what we build we can control more so than what nature has evolved. If for example, I can build a robot to pick up my trash can and walk it down to the street once a week and it’ll self heal all the wear and tear that is pretty nice.

Jaron is very good at articulating his ideas. He is preaching to the choir with me though. I was somewhat addicted to Twitter, but snapped out of it 7 years ago, and find the idea of using one of those networks tiresome.
The original point was about energy efficiencies though. This was the point people were disagreeing with.

Also for what it's worth, back in the early-to-mid 90s I actually did do a study on the number of TVs in an average household in my home town (it was for a college assignment). While my sample size was relatively small (ie only a few hundred people interviewed), I did discover the vast majority of homes had 2 TVs instead of 1 (which surprised me as I didn't live in a particularly affluent area). So I don't think it's quite true to even say most people used to only have 1 TV. Or at least that wasn't the trend observed by my study.
Oh users do find these things. Every time they release a new "Feature Update" full of problems (which is to say, every time they release a new Feature Update), it turns out those problems had all been well reported by people on Insider Builds. Nearest I can figure, in MS's continuing effort to Embrace OSS software, they have contracted the disease that prevents them from paying attention to what users are complaining about.
I think the escape towers have always been considered as workable. The Space Shuttle had a few emergency modes that were considered as very questionable. For example there was one where they would turn the Shuttle around and fly back to the launch site which was considered as very difficult to say the least.
Depends on your goal, but I got a little succulent plant for Christmas that I've been keeping at my desk at work. I have almost no previous experience with plants, but I water it once a week and it has done pretty well for almost a year now. I gave it a name and it has been a nice little joy in my life.

the average person “consumes about 34 gigabytes across varied devices each day” — some 100,000 words’ worth of information - seems like an odd and misleading statistic.
The US would collaborate with China on this if it would make financial sense. It could even be an opportunity to straight things out a bit.

That being said, I agree that it's not going to happen. First, Tianzhou is currently cargo-only, for which there are enough alternatives. Second, the US is close to getting back their own human access to space (through Boeing and SpaceX), and that would probably be ready before sufficient restructuring & testing on Tianzhou is completed.

Edit: Shenzhou is the human rated version of Tianzhou, so the main question would be whether it can dock with the ISS. (There's not just the dock itself that has to fit, but there's additional limitation on what kind of maneuverability system can be used close to the ISS). Also, the next Shenzhou flight was originally scheduled for 2018 and got delayed to 2020 - so this is highly unlikely going to be an option (No Mark-Watney-style rescue is required unless the docked Soyuz modules are 'grounded' as well)

There’s an important distinction here. This is an efficiency which decrease power consumption of idle an itself useless ”activity” which is a side effect everybody is trying to avoid, compare that to coal burners that really care about generating energy cheap.
This is my favorite plant. It's really easy to propagate, just pull it out of the pot, split in two and repot in separate containers. It really tells you when it needs watering, so as long as you pay attention it is impossible to kill. Other plants, such as ivy seem to look healthy until suddenly one day I look and notice they are completely dead.

I'm not sure I'd describe the Carnegie Institution, or Rockefeller Foundation, who funded a lot of the eugenics research with the end in mind as notably liberal progressive. Nor could the Republicans Coolidge ("Nordics deteriorate when mixed with other races") and Hoover, who were both heavily in favour, be described as progressive liberals. Roosevelt was in favour too, of course.

It was a movement independent of politics, and especially popular in pre-war USA on both sides of the political divide.

Nice!

But still: you did port it from C++, and consciously or not, that optimization still applies.
I believe the Soyuz SAS has engine thrusters for the landing sequence. So ballistic may mean the thrusters were not operable and they may have landed a bit harder than normal (normal for an abort sequence at least). Meaning they were still under canopy, just falling at a higher impact velocity than intended. So maybe rather than a gentle landing at 5m/s it was more like a car crash at 20 m/s. Beats blowing up with the rocket or hitting the ground at terminal velocity, though, and presumably the reports of "good condition" mean there are at most some concussions and broken bones.
You need to be a citizen of a nation neighbouring China to know the severe pressure that China exerts on borders, trade and geo-politics. You just don't hear about it much in the world-news as it doesn't affect the US.
Yeah, I found that an odd comparison to make as well. If you want encrypted traffic that's all well and good, but there's no reason to assume that the private network is going to be any different performance wise than the exact same encrypted solution over the public interface - a network is a network is a network in this case.

Since the goal was to have a private network between your own boxes, the encryption was only really "required" to protect private data because it had to transit the public network in Hetzner. Since DO provides a private network natively there's (in theory) no justification for the encryption, which means you'd get native performance, hence the advantage.
Or maybe the blessing is why they survived ;)
Well, if you want to improve tabular data formats:

1. Add a version identifier / content-type on the first line!

2. Create a formal grammar for this CSV format

3. Specify preferred character-encoding

4. Provide some tooling (validation, CSV 1.1 => HTML, CSV => Excel)

5. Add the option to specify column type (string, int, date)

6. Specify ISO-8601 as the preferred date format

7. Allow 'reheading' the columns in the file itself. This is useful in streaming data.

8. Specify the format of the newlines.

I have a few "Mother of Thousands" [0] which started out as a single plant that I was gifted but it grew so rapidly that I now have about 6 pots of them. They produce tiny little baby plants on the edges of each leaf which then drop off. They are also nigh on impossible to kill (I rarely water them). I used to plant all the tiny 'seedlings' but now throw them away as there are just way too many. Be aware though that they are toxic so maybe not a good mix with pets.
