I really don't get the factory use case. What kind of productivity boost do people expect, that could make up for the cost of modeling, both up-front and continuous with every change to the physical setup? Make up for the cumulative cost of the extra delays incurred by adding an AR content maintenance team to the already long list of people you need to coordinate in the project plan when retooling for e.g. a new product? Making the few people left on a high tech high automation factory floor even more productive is an insubstantial gain compared to retooling latency. The former just happens to be easier to quantify, wages are neatly tallied in Excel or SAP, whereas missed opportunities don't appear in your imagination unless you actively think about them.

Maybe AR will be the missing building block that makes high tech manufacturing breach the complexity wall where things start to be getting easier, but without more compelling arguments for that side than I have seen so far I will continue suspect that it will just be the opposite of keeping it simple. (This is a general pair of polar opposites I like to use as a mental model in programming: either KISS or climb the complexity/abstraction mountain until it gets easier again - the problem is that you don't know in advance how high the mountain will be, how low the trough on the other side will be, could be higher, could be lower than the default state of KISS and that it is easy to get lost on the way up)

The rate of change of emission is not the same as rate of change of temperature so not sure what it is you are worried about exactly. Keep in mind the models aren't actual predictions they are models which give us a range from no problem at all to really scary. But none of them are actual scientific predictions and there is plenty of argument for why it's not going to be a big issue and certainly not something we can't deal with.

Whenever I read material from a syndicated site I want to know where the canonical source is. This is essentially an electronic transcription, and it may not be 100% correct.

In addition I wanted to download the material, and Fermat's Library made that difficult by design.

Also I disable JavaScript for pretty much every website, and don't really like when I have to selectively re-enable scripts in order to achieve basic functionality, as was required for Fermat's Library.

I've long maintained that plastics recycling is worse than useless -- washing all of that plastic takes loads of water, and there just aren't many uses for recycled plastic. Consider the plastics around you. How many objects are virgin plastic? How many are recycled? There's not some secret destination for recycled plastics. Clearly it's being dumped or burned, and it has been for a long time. Now we're doing it in the U.S. again, it's much harder to pretend that's not its fate.

Honestly, none of this novel foldable-screen stuff is necessary for an e-reader's use case. You don't need a double-wide tablet-sized screen for e-ink. Two e-ink screens with a hinged spine, and a ribbon cable going through the hinge; that was technically doable way back at the original Kindle release. I'm amazed it took this long for someone to have the idea of making their book-replacement show you two pages at once.

Almost any car company could, which is interesting. The entire powertrain and infotainment system are manufactured by LG Chem and sold as an integrated package.

Maybe I have some really strange expectations but when I want to find a file and nothing comes up as a result, I want to be sure nothing is there. And I want to be sure without remembering bunch of command line options or setting up aliases everywhere I log in because, guess what, maybe they invented some other file with patterns to ignore.

So you're suggesting we use BEAM instead of Kubernetes?

So just rewrite all our code in Erlang, including off the shelf products we didn't write?

Then use some other technology to deploy the software, configure the machine, come up with a way to do service discovery, attach block devices to nodes, and automatically provision new machines based on resource usage?

It doesn't make sense yet it's seemingly repeated on every thread about Kubernetes.

The Erlang community should celebrate technologies like Kubernetes, Mesos, or any other number of resource scheduling systems because they're finally the industry taking seriously the problems addressed by Erlang.

Redis is not a drop-in replacement for an SQL server. It's more like a RAM based key value store with better data type options than "just string" and it's also like a swiss army knife. In a generic Rails/Laravel/MVC setup you could use redis to handle one or all of: sessions, cache, queue, pubsub, (probably more), effectively lifting the burden from your SQL server.

What is different?
There is no way a landlord in Dublin can get stuck with a tenant for 30 years. Rent increases are capped/set at 4% a year. The length of a lease is meant to be six years, but a landlord can terminate a tenancy at practically any time using a number of exemptions/loopholes in the law – to let a family member use the property, selling the property, refurbishing the property, etc. The rent increase limits should apply between tenancies too, as the landlord is legally required to tell new tenants the rent of the previous rent if they ask, but it is up to the prospective tenant to enforce this. At a time when demand for rental properties has never been higher, landlords can easily choose the tenants that don't ask these kinds of questions.

The root cause of high rents in Dublin is two-fold: competition for rental units is extremely high, which drives prices up; meanwhile rent is usually a function of the mortgage that exists on the property, which is determined by the price of the construction and/or the value of the land it's built on – and that's where you get massive amounts of speculation in Dublin. Land in Dublin is so expensive that it drives up the cost of everything else along the chain.

Most of the vacant units in Dublin are old, and in terrible shape. They're largely owned by people who either don't have the resources (money/energy/time) to improve them so they meet minimum standards, or they're owned by people who know they can let them sit for five or ten or twenty years and sell them for a profit then. The site they're on is nearly always going to increase in value, regardless of the state of the property.

SighThe responses to your question (systems falling over on Jepsen) are already the most depressing kind:

- that's not our use case (then why are you advertising distribution???)
- they didn't use this feature (WELL THEN, SHOW THAT FEATURE PASSING THE TESTS)
- we're not that kind of distributed (oh, you mean the one you can use?)

Jepsen has been the first step for trusting anything that involves data and distribution. Everything is going to fail under his hard stare, it just comes down to how much BS smokescreening is done by the purveyors of the software to judge how to trust it.
I'd have thought a mask ROM would be incredibly easy to build. And the whole system would be nonvolatile anyway, so storage of mutable data would be straightforward.

Ultimately the code would compile down to binary; getting it into the machine is just like any other interface.
I’ve been surprised at the lack of good quantitative reporting on college costs over time. For state schools, yes, state funding has been cut, but I get the feeling that expenses have been skyrocketing. When I went to college in the late 90’s, my dorm was from 1930. The building boom in dorms was only surpassed by the expansion of residence life administrators. These new buildings were quite opulent for college kids, attempting to lure out of state students paying higher tuition. While these out of state student bodies grew, the cost for in-state students exceeded inflation, even while being subsidized by out of state students. A simple analysis of dorm costs over time, broken down by administrator overhead would shed a substantial light on the problem. Unlike tuition, dorms likely weren’t subsidized by tax payers and were designed to be cost neutral. I wouldn’t even be surprised if now, dorm costs exceed what they’re charging students, and constrained to raise prices by the external housing market, the excess administrators are funded by the general fund.

All the data exists and at public schools, is likely accessible by a reporter to validate these assumptions.

What I hear in the media is just simple politics - the left wants more funding for gender studies programs, and the right has cut the state funding of schools.

As the community college prices haven’t increased anything like the university prices, while the teaching staff is paid similarly... I have to wonder what’s going on with University expenses.

Not exactly true. You can separate off the paper component and then do "something" with the plastic/aluminium composite that remains:

I doubt it's worth it, though - it's a lot of work for a little low-grade paper waste, and incineration is probably more efficient.
> “When the greening of the Earth was first observed, we thought it was due to a warmer, wetter climate and fertilization from the added carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, leading to more leaf growth in northern forests, for instance. Now, with the MODIS data that lets us understand the phenomenon at really small scales, we see that humans are also contributing.”

That global warming may induce more agriculture, and forest growth, in the global North is something I'd like to learn more about. Anyone have any further reading to recommend?

The issue is that reviews for the same SKU are shared across all sellers. That doesn't even address the fact that some products have quality issues per color. They also mix the inventory together for efficiency in logistics. Once you do that, you admit that you don't care because you can't get the pee out of the pool.

It seems like it should be easy to track the content coming in with an additional barcode sticker. You scan that barcode when the order is fulfilled and based on the user review/return/etc. ban that seller for counterfeit goods. It just seems like Amazon isn't interested in solving this because it becomes fairly trivial. I think the long term goal is to erode confidence in now Amazon branded products as they have different SKUs. Additionally, most people are lazy and won't bother returning something < $25 and will just pitch it but Amazon still collects their fees.
Wild fight break out in Brooklyn nail salon
"Indian megathread: India-Pakistan Border Skirmish" would be as better title in my opinion. It is an Indian subreddit and very one-sided, stating things like "this is all because Pakistan supports terrorist" etc. yet not a word about why the official death-tolls from India mentions militants killed in Pakistani attacks on Indian military installations.

I'm neither Indian or Pakistani or rooting for either side. Just pointing out it is one-sided and that both sides support and use terrorists/militants/whatever.

If you combine N as all possible numerators with N as denominators you get that cardinality of Q = N * N

Also, I don't accept the diagonal argument as proof. Given all possible combinations of numbers, any given number will occur in that set no matter what. If you add special rules of course it falls apart and Cantor's argument is just a special rule.

If we use fruits as an example, taking a diagonal from their letters won't form a fruit either.

I'm wondering why garbage dumps aren't more of a thing, maybe seepage over time? Or nobody wants it in their back yard? But on the other hand, the US still has huge amounts of unused land, deserts where nothing grows anyway. I could make the argument that moving it to the dump costs too much in transport, but err, it was moved halfway across the world earlier so ???.

Anyway, why not separate, compact and store it safely and dig it up again once we've found out how to recycle it properly. I want to believe plastics are a valuable resource and burning it is a huge waste.

True! China has never directly impacted my life or the life of those I love.

The US on the other hand has replaced a bunch of democratically-elected governments in South America with dictatorships, taught torture classes to the people who tortured my grandfather in Brazil, and has taken the economical blockade of Venezuela over the course of decades to the current level of a humanitarian crisis and a disintegrated state, to which (surprise!) they'll have to "bring democracy".

> I don't like the false equivalence of what the US-lead western intelligence does and what the Chinese state does.

I agree, it's a false equivalence. The effects of US-lead western intelligence actions are objectively more perverse.

Not really. The paper in a Tetra Pak is easily separated and recycled. The tricky part is separating the plastic layer from the aluminium. There are Chinese recycling factories that manage it with a chemical bath. A Spanish company also managed to boil the plastic away from the metal.
I imagine the grocery store of twenty years from now will just have giant barrels of products and everyone brings in their own containers to fill up.

I can truly say that Redis has changed my life and career. I started using it in 2010, got hooked immediately, and I've been a member of the community and contributor ever since. I got to build so many cool things with Redis over the years, it's amazing how versatile and powerful it is.

Having worked for a couple of years at Redis Labs, I got to work closely with antirez, and that's been a transformative experience as well, which made me a better engineer and open source contributor.
