> If only because most people would say hi or smile even if you didn't know them as they walk past you.

Ooh, this is highly dependent on the city you live in, and the neighborhood you're in. I've visited many/lived in a few cities in the U.S. and Canada, and hi/smiles are actually not that uncommon, especially in the midwest, the south and in Canada.

It depends on the context of course. No one will greet you on a busy street corner, or at rush hour. But if you're walking your dog, at a bus shelter, or casually strolling in a quieter neighborhood with low pedestrian traffic, your chances are higher. It's just human nature.

Also, a great opportunity for human connection is just talking to cashiers, i.e. folks in retail that you come across. Surveys have shown that though these interactions are brief and fleeting, they can do a lot to alleviate loneliness.
So your math is telling me that a mice (10w/kg in the experiment) would survive 25 days in a 600w microwave oven at full power?

Because they survived in the experiment.

My 600w microwave oven cooks eggs in 2 minutes. Pretty sure a mice wouldn't last an hour inside it even at 1/4 power.
Yes it should. It made it happen because instead of having endless meetings and brainstorming sessions in Lesbos or Johannesburg, the heartless ignoramuses of Texas figured out how to drill for clean energy. What really did the brainstormes accomplish considering the chart presented?

>Tell me about yourself?

At best that question is a clear demonstration of lack of both and a plain vanilla diplomatic type question.

At worst it tells me this person doesn’t care and is just waiting to be asked the same question to rattle off their prerehearsed answer which will no doubt incorporate some fine oneupmanship (in other words that questions tells me that person is just waiting for their time to talk).

The only proper answer to such a question: “I live off the fat of the land, how about you?” Then as they struggle to begin their prerehearsed response, excuse yourself to a more interesting conversation.

This isn't funny. I'd argue that it is true, though. Taxation, as an idea, is simply the idea of taking something from someone 'for the common welfare' (ie, other people's well being).

Taking everything, including choice, (in essence slavery) could be called a 'tax' using the above definition.

To compare taxes (as they are presently levied against any first world population) to slavery is quite a stretch, though.

What Wait Why: Heroku Doesn’t Want You to Be Naked
I found living in a small town lonelier because all those small indications of friendliness were not genuinely similar to myself. Ie. Meeting my eyes and saying hello implies you actually know me or have much to do with me. Generally this wouldn’t be the case, as my hobbies have little overlap with small town life. I felt uncomfortable and lonely. In a city there’s no pretending or pretense that random strangers want to bond, and I can find my own group through meetups.

You’ve been paying for healthcare for the uninsured forever - just inefficiently.

Hospitals are required to treat anyone who comes in to stabilize them - you pay for that through some combination of higher insurance if you are insured - the hospital jacks up prices - or some cities fund the hospitals.
Aka EmacsOS!
As an alternative perspective: perhaps discussing the social issues is more difficult because their immediate self-interest (and that of their families) lies towards lower taxation, less regulation, and so on. In my experience, all people tend to protect what is theirs first, although they will cloak this intent behind language that makes it more ambiguous. Appealing to people's sympathy just isn't an effective strategy, as humans aren't actually as charitable as we pretend to be.

If you can convince people that their long-term self-interest must include the broader community, you may be more likely to get somewhere than pointing out the challenges experienced by other people. In any case, you're unlikely to make any headway against people who are buying private islands and have "escape plans" to get them out of the country. (These people already understand the risk and believe they have factored that into their decisions.)

> Beauty represents the forces of nature: electromagnetism, the weak force, the strong force and gravity.

The point of General Relativity is that gravity is not a force. I'm familar with standard argument that Newtonian force is a suitable approximation. But he is being careless with a very fundamental concept. Gravity is either a force or it is not. In physics it looks like it is a force when the author needs a force and it is not a force when the author feels like it.

>> Even if the majority of people choose the max they can afford, it doesn't follow that individuals can't freely choose cheaper houses for themselves.

The entire market is affected by this. You might spend less on a house, but the price of that house has already been influenced by the overall market. Homes in that price range are still at the maximum for people in some income range.
That story seems apocryphal. Richard Branson's business empire started with Virgin Records (and in particular, signing Mike Oldfield before Tubular Bells became a huge hit), and the name came from him sitting around stoned at a party/orgy with a bunch of friends and saying, "Well, we're all virgins in business, so let's just call it Virgin Records." He's not a cofounder of Virgin Atlantic - the cofounders were Randolph Fields and Alan Hellary, and Randolph met RB at a party in which RB agreed to put up all the money in exchange for a large equity stake. He was already wealthy from the success of Virgin Records, which had been in business for a decade.

Blaming it on community planning might be pointing to the symptom rather than the problem. I’d hazard that the real problem is intolerance born from individualism. In the American context we have a society such that people both clutch and invent their own rights while insisting that all others respect and maintaining them. This would be fine if tolerance actually existed and the relationship were bidirectional. The relationship has proven to be unidirectional in a lot of cases which has led to the polarity that we are experiencing. Abstracting further, I’d say that these situations could largely be reduced to groups of people misunderstanding the significance of difference between tolerance and affirmation.

Last words: yes it is simplistic and reductionist to boil it down like this. I’m comfortable with staging the problem like this because we aren’t considering an ultra specific case here that requires precision.
Wouldn’t it be better instead of learning a ton of languages, to learn how to “engineer” systems? By that I mean, learning how to build and manage complex projects?

It's an interesting way to do it, but I would personally prefer wifi-based:

* Allows usage from laptops

* No app to install

This could be integrated to several stock pi images from other projects, and I think that's where this really has potential. There's WiFiManager [1] for the esp8266, but this is the first time I came across something similar for the pi.

Pretty good "mea culpa" video here from a guy that cut his hand up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fifjjacjLBE
The root cause of all of this: an economic system predicated on the notion of growth. Unrestrained greed, sole focus on maximization of profit, and unlimited growth. It's not enough to sell as many mobile phones as you did last year, no, you must sell 10% more each quarter, or whatever. Doesn't matter if you're mining the earth bare, generating millions of tons of garbage, optimising for inferior products that break sooner, treating workers like slaves in a race to the bottom... in other words making the world objectively worse. All social considerations, moral, ecological, of welfare, of justice, all those considerations don't enter the calculations. All that matters is the quarterly shareholder report.

Like some guy said, "the only people who believe in infinite growth on a finite planet are madmen and economists".
It's not about SPA's. It's about modernizing your development workflow and making it more accessible to a variety of devs -- not just .NET (Read: C#) developers.

If you're still using Razorscript then you're probably causing more work for yourself than you realize, both from a resourcing standpoint and a functional one.
Personally, I went consistently to specific social groups regularly (for months at a time). Eventually you get to know other regulars and one or two or more will become a bond with you. Then invite them out for lunches or dinners. Suddenly you unofficially have a lunch with them weekly or every other week. Maybe group chats over coffee. Texting about work. Etc.
Are you in therapy? It can be very helpful for learning to develop change strategies and coping mechanisms. Depression is particularly hard to deal with alone, and your problems may be very specific.
Never seen this!

Is there something similar for other brands?
The last bit is an analogy.

The idea that your payment is fixed and so the only thing that varies is the proportion allocated to different external parties makes no sense, because you're not buying the same thing.

People don't look at a house and say "I want that" and buy it. They look within their maximum payment range. What exists within that range is hugely influenced by external factors.

The analogy with an 8h work week would be that everyone 'pays' 8 hours a day for their free time so every other factor is irrelevant. Of course it's not; the particular job you end up with for your 8 hours (influenced both by your personal skill but also the external market) has a massive impact on your QoL.
If the levy was on data centres not consuming green energy sources, the backlash would be nil.

I'm not. You can, and I'm sure eventually you will arrive very close to the approximation.

I'd been a big time fan of `ncdu` for years and even wrote in an e-journal about it once. Maybe that's why the sharp adjectives became more difficult to digest. Anyway, good luck!
> Don’t worry — I’m sure the scum feel pretty much the same about you.

Quite possible, and that's part of the point I'm making. There's no communality, everyone just wants to have as little to do with their neighbor as possible. Even if it turns out that quite a few of these neighbors (me included) do not throw parties, do not smoke inside, do not drink and fool around, do not have loud kids or animals, do not throw trash around and break things in shared spaces, don't blast music at 3 AM...

There's too many people for people to care, kind of? And a bunch of bad apples ruin it for everyone.
Hmm, forgetting land entirely, actual replacement cost is a lot higher than most people can afford directly (literally, the cost of materials and labor, a very competitive market) so I think instead of arriving at the true price of the house the market would instead be dominated by those who hold capital (as with industry), and we'd basically all be renters.
That's actually an excellent idea: only the tax should be higher and just applied directly to the non-green electricity used. Oh and to the entire supply chain of the infrastructure (servers etc).
> If lenders are willing to finance an investment with 3% yield, then house prices will jump to 33x their annual rent value - it goes without saying that's only possible in low interest markets.

There's truth to this, but I don't think house prices should simply be (annual rent) / interest_rate. There's a variety of other homeowner costs to consider (property taxes, HOA, maintenance, etc.) and buyers are taking an opportunity cost not being able to invest their paid-down principal (including down payment) in riskier assets.

I have a calculator at https://medium.com/@usaar33/an-up-to-date-buy-or-rent-calcul... to find indifference point on the buyer side. Other huge inputs are future appreciation rates of investment and property. At default values, price moves at about half that of mortgage rate changes: e.g. halving the mortgage rate only raises the house price willing to pay by ~16%; doubling it, cuts price by ~25%.
Sigh.

Electron apps don't have the ethical issue of directly killing living things for our benefit. That's a good enough reason for a levy, imo.
I contribute loads to open source too.

It’s actually not that hard to do so without talking trash about other projects. In fact I find those kind of comparisons are often the laziest and least researched ways of promoting a particular project as anyone who’s spent any time dissecting other peoples work in detail (not just running ‘ps’ in another TTY) will usually gain an appreciation for the hard work and design decisions that have gone into competing solutions.

But that’s just the opinion of one guy who has been contributing to the open source community for the last two decades. ;)
"Luck" just means we don't have enough information to say why so you use a statistical model instead. In the same way we treat winning a coin flip as due to luck but you could devise a situation where you know exactly what will happen given all the right parameters are known. In the past people called the same thing "god's will".

That said, it doesn't mean the cancer needed to be heavily influenced by any conscious choice/behavior made by your father.

It's crazy how this isn't more common knowledge that the Economist needs to write an article about it. We're also seeing the same thing recently with tuition prices. There is more money available for student loans so schools just jack up the tuition to meet the supply of money available.

This article has a huge number of problems. To say "not a single one" of theory prediction was right overlooks the Higgs. To call all the theorists work "predictions" and calling them "wrong" is employing phrases which undermines the scientific method of hypothesis testing and devalues the work of people trying to understand the foundations of physics. To do those tests and get null results is valuable. We could not make progress with those questions still open.

When I was in academia, I was involved in experiments consisting in the exposure of flies (drosophila melanogaster) to 900 MHz controlled electromagnetic fields.

I participated to the design of the exposure chamber, essentially a bi-planar transmission line, with a peak electric field near 220 V/m.

We were able to find evidence of an effect only after 7 days of continuous exposure to the field.

The effect was an up-regulation of the genes encoding for a stress-response protein (Hsp70, aka heat-shock protein).

We tried also exposure to pulsed high intensity magnetic field (~1T for 2 usec) for 3 hours, 1 pulse per second. Same effect.

My opinion is that, as long as fields are at low intensity and for short periods, we can consider such exposures as moderately safe

I don't know why you're being downvoted. Razorscript is functionally useless in web development. It's only applicable to web pages that are completely rendered server side, on an ASP.NET server (basically every other templating language works both on the server and the client), and has a barrier that prevents well rounded, experienced web developers from contributing to a project -- not everyone knows or will even care to learn C#, nor will they have an environment that allow them to run visual studio, or any kind of IIS server.

If you're using Razorscript still you are doing yourself and your company a large disservice. There isn't anything Razorscript brings to the table that makes it a worthwhile option. And even worse, if you are using Razorscript, you will have to write more code to specifically be in harmony with any other kind of front end framework.

And please I beg of anyone replying to these messages to not get confused and assume that pages not written in Razorscript are somehow specifically trying to be an SPA. They are not. The clear difference between something like Razorscript and say using server rendered react, is that the former will only ever be rendered on the server, and the latter can be rendered on both the server and the client.

The Wikipedia page portrays the issue as one with potentially catastrophic consequences, but ultimately as one needing further research.

Calthrates certainly deserve scientific attention, and not enough is being done to address global warming, but we don't know that a calthrate gun has ever fired in the Earth's past, and current theories for how one might be triggered in the near future have yet to be fleshed out in any detail.
