> OP won't try it out because it's unlikely the template will solve his issues

His general issues in life? maybe not. But honestly, that's a bit of a big thing to ask from a pandoc template. So OP asked for it, implying that he's interested in such things, but generally has issues with long lines in such templates. So interest is there, it may even correlate with the fact that he has a setup with most of the tools needed installed.

> playing around with new things is generally a waste of time

What? I'm thankfully that a lot people do not think this way, else we'd be still in the stone age.

> So if you (tlamponi) have some interest in promoting this template

no interest whatsoever, not related to it in anyway. But I have an interest that people try easy things out, instead of speculating on negative or positive possibilities of said things, which, in fact, is a waste of time.

> but it is not as easy and straight-forward as you make it out to be.

# package-manager install git pandoc

Ah yes, very very hard. Sorry for trying to convince someone to work out answers they're interested in their self, such a useless thing to do in life.

Anyway, it seems that it does cope well with long lines, be it in a common text paragraph, but also in a code block, here it breaks those lines, intends the overflowing one - together with the fact that there are line numbers everything is clear and easy to read. Single thing, if I copy those broken up code lines, they do not get copied as a single line, this is a bit of a bummer to me, but may not be an issue for others..

Longer half-lives = less radioactivity.
This seems more like a Hollywood situation than a tech situation.

It really depends on the location if nuclear makes sense. For example to fully go solar here in Finland you would need enough storage to basically store 2 or 3 months of winter usage of power as the efficiency of the panels goes down to less then 5% of peak during winter as the sun just isn’t up and when it is it at such a low angle that it produces next nothing.

So basically one would need a lot of overcapacity to be able to produce and store enough power during the summer to last over the winter. But in places like California sure go full solar as it actually works all year around.
What is going on with all this cult-following of "FANG" companies? I seriously don't get it. From what I see those are close to the least ethical companies in tech.

It really disturbs me that people chose a job for fame and money in those companies way before choosing an interesting project, or something that you can believe in.
Yes, they did have a reason: "Another unusual feature of the skull was noted by the radiologist and confirmed by the doctors. The area on the base of the skull where the pituitary gland is located was substantially larger than normal." [0]

Its also noted in that article that he was born with some type of anomaly, or 'debility' and that caused him to be baptized in the home, which would be unusual for Catholic families in Poland.

Interestingly, this article on poles.org was written long ago in 2008 and leaked the detail (about this CAH theory) about Gen. Pulaski possibly being a girl. This was supposed to be a secret by the Smithsonian-funded group performing the forensic anthropology analysis and only released now.

Germany spent around around 250 billions euros since 2005 on renewables [1]. The french nuclear energy (total) had a cost of 228 billions euros [2]. Renewables are not nearly as cheap as people make you believe, they do have a lot of external costs.

The biggest problem with nuclear power is how unacceptable mistakes or failures are for anybody who's the slightest bit anti-nuclear. It means that failures are concealed and not dealt with adequately and safety culture as would be necessary isn't sufficiently implemented. The process of improvement is stifled by this cultural need to cry "shut it all down" the moment an accident happens. Imagine if people reacted the same way to aviation - it never would have become as safe as it is now (and yet still hundreds of people died this year alone, 3 months in). Nuclear power can't become safer (and it already is pretty damn safe) in modern cultural contexts. That's not the fault of the technology, it's the fault of everybody here, the media and everybody claiming how unsafe nuclear is and how we should stop using it (and screw the consequences of not using and refining such an amazing technology).

Why would everyone have to pay the same price for games? Where does this logic come from?

Just because you can buy a car in Iowa and drive it to California, it doesn't mean people in Iowa have pay the exact same price for it than in Cali.

Same goes here - EU doesn't force you to price thing the same across all countries. But you are just not allowed to ban people from buying a thing in one EU country and take it to another - this is the CORE tenement of EU's single market and without this limitation, the EU single market cannot exist.

Banning customers from being able to shop around for lower price of a good they want is also an egregious voilation of core benefit of free market capitalism.
> for example, you're very likely to need a few variables defined once and reused across k8s definitions (a host or domain name, project ID, etc). You can't really do that in a DRY way with Kustomize.

I agree this is one of the areas where you feel the pinch of kustomize's rather puritan design philosophy. We've been able to work around those things in ways that aren't exactly elegant, but don't cause physical discomfort. For shared variables we keep a patch on disk and generate specialized copies of it during deployment. It's a hack, but it retains some of the benefits of a declarative approach. We also still use substitution in a couple of places. It's hard to use kustomize to update an image tag that changes with each build for example.
Should drug ampoules and packaging be standardised to avoid errors?
You're correct. Due to fudged up electronics prices here, DVB-T is cheaper.

> Actually idempotent comes from algebra, in particular from ring theory. An ideal is idempotent if its generator, say it a, multiplied by itself n times, equals the ring identity.

The Wikipedia article you linked to defined it for ring elements rather than for ideals of rings and for n=2. I agree that it is sometimes useful to define it more generally where it is in respect to some integer n, analogous to nilpotence.

You may have encountered this notion first in ring theory which may have led to this impression, but it is by no means an idea originating from this specific context.

For example, another comment points out that in linear algebra, a projection operator is said to have the idempotence property.
It became so popular that the originals weren’t though highly enough to be copied, and were lost. Wonder if there’s any parallels here.

That time as Christianity was forming itself is so interesting to look at if you were raised in a particular sect - the idea that there is any truly singular deity-preferred way to live seems laughable given how many differences of opinion there was even in the earliest church - frequently the only justification is that because a set of ideas succeeded it must be right, in a sort of might makes right sense.

Energy density and cost have almost no correlation. Gasoline is less dense, but I can package a gas generator into a small box for very little cost. Uranium requires a giant reactor the size of a small town and costs billions.

$/MWh is the only real metric that matters.

> The upshot is that a command such as "deploytool app deploy --red mybranch" does everything a developer would want in one go. That's what we need.

That tool for us is a gitlab pipeline, and I guess the logic in your tool is in our case split between the pipeline and some scaffolding in a build repo. The pipelines run on commit, the image is built, tested, audited, then the yaml is patched and linted as you describe before being cached in a build artifact. The deploy step is manual and tags/pushes the image and kubectl applies the yaml resources in a single doc so we can make one call. We recently added a step to check for a minimal set of ready pods and fail the pipe after x secs if they don't come up, but haven't actually started using it yet.

Leaving the allegations totally aside the article does seem a bit misleading.

The title is technically true but most people would read this as a company executive-- a high-level employee. She is in fact an executive producer on a small Spanish language program. The article title sort of implies something like Reed Hastings/the board ousted chief communications officer Rachel Whetstone or something.

If the allegations are true it could simply be a single bad actor within a small unit of Netflix operating with limited oversight. Obviously, I don't have knowledge of Netflix internal policies but my guess is that they don't regularly do stupid , easily detectable shit like this to break the law. At least, I hope they don't regularly do this.
The people behind "Flawless App" tend to do a loooooot of content, linking back to their app. On one hand, some content is actually pretty nice. On the other, it can come across spammy.
You typically don't have a design engineer actively monitoring safety features that are permitted by the regulator, built and maintained to standard. In a dynamic environment where the situation changes regularly there is a little more defense for catching that type of thing. In a static environment like fixed plant it could well be they just weren't ready for that sort of change.

That style of hazard, where existing controls passed through a rigorous system but become insufficient with time, are really insidious. It is certainly easy to understand why they would have missed it; even though it isn't an acceptable outcome. Especially given that communication in the 70s/80s involved a lot more talking to people and reading the right journals.
What is being described here is very similar if not identical to what can be found in Agile software and lean software development books that gained popularity in the mid 2000's.
one small correction: the fate of the world isn’t in question. it’s the fate of humans that is.

Your view is non-sense. Most used Toyotas, Hondas, lexus, and acuras are extremely reliable. Buy one that is 4 years old with around 40k mileage and you'll save 50% on the price.

It's not made up. You misunderstood about the developmental delays: she gave birth to her son, refused to nurse him, refused to even have him close to her. She did not go outside with him or interact with him in any way beyond what's necessary to sustain life. She was living in a 11 squaremeter apartment with him and did not let him explore, did not take him to the play ground, did not take him to child groups. For a young child this situation basically amounts to sensory deprivation and it's absolutely enough to stunt growth and development.

Oh it's real, I haven't even told you half of her insanity.

Like the time my girlfriend who is her friend tried to help her quit by listening to Alen Carr which had helped us a lot in quitting smoking. Quote verbatim: 'this is brain washing'.

Like the time my step son who would rather bite his arm of then confront someone told her straight up that smoking while pregnant is a shitty thing to do to the baby. She just shrugges, smiles and say I know I know.

Like when she told her baby father to move 700km so he can take their son on the weekends (she was always trying to pawn him off to someone) and then half a year later moved up 500km the same direction to her new boyfriend and now has the state pay for her legal bills from the resulting custody dispute.

It's all real. You can, of course think, that it's all invented by the american right wing to make poor people look bad but if you listen you will hear the same kind of stories from social workers and welfare officials from all over.
You might not want to believe this because it points to a fundamental problem of welfare: bad attitudes, tendencies and habits get worse with more resources and not better.

I used to think the same thing, however looking at some recent reviews it appears as if Speed Queen has succumbed to the cost cutting movement. People are complaining that the latest machines no longer clean properly and are not up to the old standards. I don't know about the repair-ability of the machines but if they don't do the job they were built for then it doesn't really matter if you can fix it or not.

I'm from Australia, the only thing that a grid without nuclear or coal has proven is that it can't deal with sustained demand. This year we came perilously close to having to choose which hospitals to cut power to when the there were two 40C days in a row.

Well, most of the courses listed are VC$, meaning they are free, but you can pay for certification.

We burn a tiny amount of fuel to get a lot of nuclear energy, and we burn a huge amount of coal to get a lot of thermal energy.

You need to consume orders of magnitude more coal than atomic fuel to get the same amount of energy; so the trace elements in coal become a big deal.

The radiation from coal isn't even the worst contaminant, you get all sorts of trace elements. Sulphur (causes acid rain around the power plant) leaps to mind, and there are other really nasty impurities. It is hard to understate the tiny, tiny nature of the nuclear waste 'problem'. Storm in a teacup stuff. It is barely an industrial quantity of dangerous material, and the energetic bits are Very Likely to be recyclable as diluted fuel for a more advanced reactor.
Not really sure how ORM solves anything here.

Tax is a line item.

To me it's as much a line item as a product, service, shipping, handling, booking fee, or any other thing that gets summed to form the total order / transaction value.

You then get to ref optionally in the way that makes sense to map attribution correctly.

Tax belongs to an item? No problem. Two taxes, one item, no problem! One tax multiple items? No problem!

No, Eclipse. Just think about how many "enterprise grade" applications are built on Eclipse.

OT: At one of my former employers we were building a PLC. The sister team was building the IDE to program the PLC, and the compiler.

All of us were behind schedule. But our colleagues from IDE world staged a presentation for the whole project including top management (owner, CEO etc.) where they showed how far they were.

They showed how they have multiple windows inside the main application window, minimizing and maximizing those. Syntax highlighting. Basically everything Eclipse is giving you for free. Actual business logic: none to be seen.
I think the debate is now shifting from nuclear vs. coal to nuclear vs. solar/wind. In that context, this argument doesn't help. Especially recently, people have been really bullish about solar and wind power, and I think that has lead to weakening of the support for nuclear power.

This is the solution, but currently only operating at a small scale. This is something that can be scaled up insanely quickly for a fraction the cost of alternatives. The success of this relatively small installation has already resulted in many more battery projects coming online this year.
