Exactly this. We must not forget how stupidly cheap it is to make something from plastic before we start making bags, cups and straws out of paper.

The great thing about plastics is their high durability and low cost of production.

I still don't understand; probably because I'm not proficient in the mathematical underpinning of this.

The way I see it, a (Common) Lisp macro can, but does not have to, distinguish between the two forms you've shown. Assuming `my-let' is the macro, from it's POV, `x' is a value. A reasonable implementation of "let" won't care about that value beyond it being a symbol comparable to other symbols by `eq'. This way, `(my-let (x 3) x)' and `(my-let (y 3) y)' will expand to effectively the same code - and after the compiler gets rid of symbol names altogether, the resulting code will be actually the same.

You should use pointers if you need to mutate the content of the struct, and values otherwise.

Almost all types that could hold a lot of data have reference semantics, so if you have a struct with a large slice, or a large map, all of the actual data is going to be on the heap, and not affect copy performance.

The only time you might want to consider using a pointer to improve copy performance is if you have lots of non-heap-allocated data in your struct, and in practice the only way that happens is via large arrays. That is, e.g. `[8192]string`, and not simply `[]string` (which is an efficient slice). But you should never do it preemptively, you should always benchmark both styles and only switch to pointers once you have proof it's meaningfully affecting performance.
Thanks! We haven't done a unique analysis yet, but here is a paper that does a good overview of energy balances and efficiencies for CO2 to fuels and products. In their separations discussion you can see why distillation of alcohols is not favorable. A membrane approach is approx. 6x better, but until the CNT membrane was shown to do this job, there was no practical way to do the separation at this efficiency.

I'm not going to support the gross generalization that an entire country needs to be humbled, BUT: the shrine is a flashpoint of Japanese ultra-nationalism, which is on the rise.

Common ultra-nationalist beliefs are fairly odious: e.g. Japan should be applauded for liberating much of East Asia from Western colonial powers, the 1946-1948 Tokyo War Crimes tribunals were illegitimate, and the killings by Imperial Japanese troops during the 1937 "Nanjing massacre" were exaggerated or fabricated.
Simpler would be a callback mechanism that required at least a domain cert with TLS..

Server A => Server B :
hey, I have a message

from Y
MessageId: Z
SingleUseKey: K
Server B disconnect
Server B => DNS Entry for Y's domain
Server B : hey, I want message ID: Z, Key: K

Then you need not only DKIM, SPF, etc, but you need a server that responds to inbound requests to pick up an outbound mail configured and setup on the correct port.

I hope it's not unpopular here. I absolutely agree with you, human nature will not change.

Reducing your carbon footprint, while the world population continues to grow, is noble, but utterly futile.

Also worth mentioning that 65% of the LR Model 3 is over 200 miles.

So if you are starting the day with 95% charge, and ending the day plugged in at your destination with 15% charge, that means you can travel about 450 miles with just one ~20 minute stop to charge along the way.

How is that not fast enough? The only issue is if you can't plug in at your destination. Maybe in that case you have breakfast near the next Supercharge on your route.

Yes, it is something you might have to think about for a minute. The guidance software will map out Supercharging stops for you.

This is not new. Things have been like this (but less systemic and organized) for the Uighurs/Uyghurs for decades. The world collectively shrugs. Because, to be honest, the West is the only part of the world where politicians nominally cares about human rights. In other parts of the world, including China and Muslim-majority countries, politicians don't even pretend they care.

And when the concept of human rights is applied to real people, some seem to be more deserving than others. Muslims are certainly not the tribe Western politicians most identify with.

"Run X Windows and you have the same thing on Linux as on Windows."

No you don't. X Windows is still run from a shell. The Windows GUI, by contrast, is not. Any application run in Linux or Solaris or whatever can drop down to the shell. And if I run an application from a terminal, I can take advantage of that. Not so with Windows.

"Why do you think Linux CLI tools are complete ?"

Because in the Unix environment, the CLI tools have been the primary admin interface for the past 40+ years. In Linux, the CLI comes first and the GUI is an afterthought. In Windows, it's the other way around. If you think that's changing, great. But I work on Windows in my day to day work, and regularly write Powershell so I've got a good feel for the difference.

My number one priority with support tickets and live chat requests is to have an initial response as quickly as possible. That initial response doesn’t need to be an answer to their question or a solution to their problem, but rather an acknowledgement that I’ve heard them and I’m on it.

In the event that I can’t fix their issue very quickly (minutes), I usually tell them I’ll follow up here and over email to let them know I’ve fixed the issue or addressed whatever they were raising. Because users of our product tend to have us open for a long period of times (companies use us for organization wide 360s), I usually can catch a person why they are still in the product.

As for juggling all the other things you’re working on as a startup, paying customers who have a question / issue almost always trumps every other thing I’m working on at any other moment. Outside of meeting with another customer, I will push whatever I’m doing and shift my attention accordingly.
Racket is being ported to Chez Scheme. That might solve the batteries included problem at least at the Racket level. However, if you don't like Racket, then I don't know if it will do anything since using Racket's libraries in Chez might be too kludgy to attempt.

Obviously what we need is no time zones and one standard time around the globe where:

Water is also a good RF screen, so such shield would also effectively blind and cripple the ship. Even discounting the energy use, no way they could keep that up continuously.

> Microsoft, please start removing shortcuts that no one needs, you surely must have all the telemetry data to support my point by now.

Happy to see you aren't working at Microsoft.

This constant push to remove everything that someone doesn't see the value of is really annoying for me.

Most of these shortcuts has been there for years.

The fact that you weren't even aware probably shows that this isn't a problem at all.

So please Microsoft: continue to "just work".

I far prefer Linux, but there is something to be said for "just working" for a very long time. (Feels crazy to say and I have a fair number of annoyances with Windows, but even if Windows never made me happy like a good KDE 3 or 5 setup, even Vista and 8 was kind of usable for me after some configuration, this is something I cannot say certain alternatives at that time)

(Now, there is one really crazy shortcut IMO, and that is alt + shift + space; enabled by default at least until Windows 8. Will change you keyboard layout with next to no visual feedback. Why this needs to be there by default on machines that will never be used for more than one language is beyond me, but I'll leave that to the experts, I'd rather have too many options than to few.)

It usually works the other way around. A bug in the code doesn't often rise to the level of negligence. (Though 99.99% of the time a fund will reimburse a loss caused by a buggy algorithm for customer relations reasons they aren't obligated.) Misrepresenting the capabilities/returns of a strategy is where fund salespeople get themselves into trouble time and again. It's perfectly legal to sell a terrible investment strategy so long as you've been truthful.

So 30 megawatts of computing, plus cooling and other supporting services. How do you power something like this? Does ORNL have their own power station (given they have reactor(s) on site)? If power comes from an external station do they coordinate with the station operator when bringing a system like this online?

Ok, I understand where you're coming from, and its a logical argument. However, a lot of fossil generators (esp coal) are baseload plants that stay running for system reliability. They might stay running during off-peak hours when the output is barely needed, just to ensure availability during on-peak hours. In those cases, you can't tweak output to match variable renewable energy output.

I learned C# from watching Scott Allen's MVC 3 course on PluralSight years ago.

The best part about his videos was that he would purposely avoid using the pre-scaffolded boilerplate project templates, and would instead start with empty ASP.NET projects and build up an MVC solution from there.

Before I had even written a single line of code, I was able to keep up in conversations with guys who had been writing C# for a decade, because he was so thorough.

I learned more about patterns and structures from other folks like John Papa, but the fundamentals were all thanks to Scott's videos.

Swatch tried to do something like that in '98:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swatch_Internet_Time

Instead of hours and minutes, the mean solar day is divided into 1000 parts called ".beats". Each .beat is equal to one decimal minute in the French Revolutionary decimal time system and lasts 1 minute and 26.4 seconds (86.4 seconds) in standard time. Times are notated as a 3-digit number out of 1000 after midnight. So, @248 would indicate a time 248 .beats after midnight representing 248/1000 of a day, just over 5 hours and 57 minutes.

There are no time zones in Swatch Internet Time; instead, the new time scale of Biel Meantime (BMT) is used, based on Swatch's headquarters in Biel, Switzerland and equivalent to Central European Time, West Africa Time, and UTC+01. Unlike civil time in Switzerland and many other countries, Swatch Internet Time does not observe daylight saving time.

Pretty-printing X12 EDI files: racing sed with Rust
I don't know the others, but I played Terraforming Mars and, compared to MtG, it is a very simple game - even without taking into account the vast difference in number of available cards.

In TM there is almost no re-using of cards. Once a card is played, it either is discarded (red), provides a one-time bonus (green) or provides passive/active effect (blue). Only blue cards could be considered as being re-usable, but even that is only as far as the actual passive/active effect goes (which is separate from the effect it may generate when entering the game). Compare it with MtG, where many cards provide effects which allow discarded cards to be returned to the game (ranging from simple "ressurect creature" effects to such that allow shuffling whole stack of discarded cards back into the deck).

Also there is no stack in TM. And gaming the stack to your advantage is one of the core mechanics of MtG. A card you played may have different effects depending on cards your enemy plays in response, and these may have their effects altered by the cards you play in response, etc.

Relatively few, I would say, if you measure it by realised Sharpe. Rentech, Brevan Howard, D.E. Shaw, and maybe AHL and Winton excluding the past few years. I'm struggling to name others that have done well over a sustained period.

There are a lot of funds out there, and IMO much of the supposed 'outperformance' is a combination of leverage and survivor bias (I say this as a former hedge fund quant).
Yep, the batteries are ridiculously heavy and they’re used as structural elements in the car.

So swapping batteries is hard to do, and unnecessary for most drives. Sure, you’d want to be able to swap batteries in five minutes like pumping gas.
