It depends on what time of the year it is. During Winter Peak on the East Coast (ISO-NE/PJM/NYISO) or Summer Peak in the ERCOT/SPP regions, you might not have a huge amount of reserves left. The shoulder months would be much nicer, but that is when many generators go on outage for repairs, so you have other problems.

One of the biggest issues is that traditional resources (coal, nuclear, gas) can run for long periods of time and in many places have a pretty reliable fuel supply. Renewables are great, but you could be generating lots of power one minute and then it's all gone the next hour. This causes a lot of stress on traditional resources which need to be ready to counteract this. Coal plants and gas plants were never designed for that either and it's causing issues.

I’ve said this before in another thread, that it baffles me how so many people in this community, who I presume are terribly rigorous about their degrees of certainty with various technical matters at work, nevertheless know exactly what everyone else should do in some barely specified life situation.

BMW i3 is, with nearing 5 years experience, pretty good at balancing dumb with tech.

Some aggravations exist: no wifi-update to software, really distracting forced overlay of the main screen with a multisecond advertisement to "keep your eyes off this screen" sort of message, and same behavior when shifting regenerative modes.

Assange will get a fair trial, does the PRC know what a fair trial is?
It's an article about TempleOS and the author is (briefly) trying to put TempleOS's use of randomness in context. Perhaps the interpretation is too superficial or inaccurate for your tastes and standards but it's not really 'inexplicable' nor do you need 'sources' every time you write (or read!) a bit of introductory material.
Facebook and social media in general is already horrible as is, why would you want to infect academia with it as well? The community does have a lot of issues but a social network and more blog posts are not the solution.

The traditional way is to organize meetups in the way of conferences, workshops, symposia, etc. It has a number of issues since some labs can't afford sending students or postdocs overseas and some countries are disadvantaged (for geographic or visa restriction reasons) but the organizers are usually well-aware of it and e.g. give out grants to cover expenses for students who apply for it.

I think the onus is on English speakers to reach out for the hidden knowledge out there, and not for the majority of the community to adapt to the native English-speaking minority. Right now they don't feel challenged because Anglo-Saxon univeristies are pretty much 'where it's at' and European ones more or less follow suit, but with the rise of Chinese research the situation may be about to change.
That's individually a smart move, collectively a dumb one. That strategy won't work for most people. Even the successful white collar workers, especially the ones who are married with children, are financially stressed already and can't save much.

You know, if 5% of the workforce follows that strategy, but things go to hell for 50% because of these trends, then we will have rioting in the streets, maybe a revolution with a nasty government installed, that is what history shows usually happens. And then the new government will go after the successful people like you.

Some problems can be dealt with only through responsible collective action.
One possibility that I can see is generating code that will run on microcontrollers. While there are some LLVM+microcontroller experiments, I'd say this is probably not an easy way to go. And trying to run some kind of Lisp on a microcontroller will also only get you so far.
As someone who started young with computers in the 80s you are right.

I miss the simplicity of the first programs I wrote.

I don’t miss a single thing about the hardware.

I’ll take dual 4K displays hooked up to a fast reliable machine over any of my previous machines.

Modern machines are simpler to build, vastly faster, vastly more reliable and vastly cheaper, they win on every metric imo.
It already got an editor, in fact it's only and editor/IDE, and it just so happens that it's also possible to run it as a "cloud" IDE due to it having a separate back-end and front-end.

Do you have any ideas on how to improve the design, more then partner with a designer =) For example, would it help if you did not get right into the editor, that you got into a dashboard first, with graphs and other "bling bling", and had to click on a file/somewhere in order to get into the code editor !?

Man... it's impossible to offer criticism these days. You're taking all this way too personally, and it's also making you misread what I'm saying. phireski understood what I was saying quite well and immediately opened an issue (which I very much appreciate), but somehow you took it differently. I didn't even realize you're here. I have nothing against you (I don't even know you). And I certainly was not misleading anyone. I was just trying to help by explaining what I've been consistently looking for in text search tools since grep, and trying to offer solutions on how one could potentially handle these situations. Here's no reason to get upset and offended. I'm not attacking you, just offering an honest criticism—with a solution too. And I would've been happy to address your further concerns here just like I did in the last comment, if you'd be more open to it and wouldn't take it so personally. If you don't care or it's too much work—I understand; there's no need to argue in that case. We can just move on.
I was on the Internet (In Argentina) the whole day. :)
Look through the comments when this is more or less done. Decide if the quality of coments warrants having temple os on the front page yet again. (How many times now?) Everything sensible has been said, repeating that signal just gets lost in the noise. Noise at best...
Darwin could definitely read German -- there are quotations from German sources in his work that are left untranslated as he expected that any educated scientist would be able to read it. In the case of Mendel, the issue wasn't that it was in German, but it was in a very obscure journal of a local science society.
> I was merely stating the fact that it is not a good idea to praise Japan in a conversation in general unless necessary, given the current state of our media.

Agreed, and points taken. Thanks.

> My stand on this is that: HK is the best candidate for advocating changes to the CCP, if you can succeed before 2047 then we really own you a big favor. But HK should also remember that this is our internal affair, no foreign organization should interfere. The West can be used as extra pairs of eyes to keep the CCP checked so it doesn't repeat the disaster happened in Tiananmen square, but that's it. I hope you can understand why we don't trust the West, after we have witnessed the events happened elsewhere.

That's reasonable. Thanks for voicing out your main concern: that China may lose control to foreign organization, hence CCP should stay unless absolutely unbearable. I think I understand more how mainlanders think now.
Give it a crack, not sure what dependencies ripgrep is pulling in but I've had good experiences so far. They seem to be doing ok with rolling it out.

Just a few more lines in your travis deploy setup.
In what sense is an Observablehq document without the editor GUI the same document? Isn't the whole point of Observablehq that your computation reacts correctly to modifications? Maybe I'm confused about which part exactly is free software and which part isn't, and I should try self-hosting some documents.

It's good that you're aware of the basic aspects of the archival problem, but you're mistaken about the role of digitality — being digital makes it possible to copy documents losslessly, thus preserving them even when the original substrate is lost. That's the reason that, for example, the older books of the Tanakh survive from that time in some form, even though they weren't carved into stone: the alphabet is a digital technology, not an analog one, enabling verbatim copying. So digitality is an advantage for archival, not a disadvantage. (You alluded to the survival of the Tanakh in your comment, so you know about it, but somehow you got its significance backwards.)

Media longevity and interpretability are, as you say, important problems. They require significant engineering effort to solve. Also, it is possible to engineer ways to sabotage media longevity and interpretability, thus greatly reducing the chance of archival success. Making your documents' interpretability conditional on the survival of a mere commercial interest is a good example of such archival sabotage, as many authors and historians have discovered, to their sorrow, in the Geocities era.

I have the sense that you're not seriously engaging with the problem, but rather looking for a quick dismissal, so you may not be interested in the following:

It's relatively straightforward to micro-engrave megabytes of programs onto copper, glass, silicon, nickel, and similarly stable materials, which will easily survive for a million years. Gigabytes are more expensive. Clay and stone are also pretty easy, but with the straightforward fabrication techniques, they have lower data capacity because of their grain structure. PET is commonly used as an archival material, and should easily last longer than paper, but it's less trustworthy — its combustibility in air means that a PET-air system is merely metastable, not stable, and the timespan of that metastability could easily be much less than that of glass.

But even old hard disks could easily have media longevity exceeding the mere 3000-year timespan we're talking about.
Racket in particular has one of the easiest ways to use an SMT solver via Rosette (also super easy to install).
Ah, now I see what you mean by 'accuracy'.

Each language does have its own counting rules. There's a separate PDF for each one describing the rules for that language, which is the cool part.
That is beyond my level of math understanding, haha.

In addition to differences in the performance data (MiDI) versus an audio recording of someone playing a real instrument, I find that MIDI instruments do not sound as realistic as a recording of someone playing acoustic drums or a real piano. Perhaps that is because VSTi plugins usually sample perfect hits and close-miced drums; while a recording of someone playing live drums might have many more imperfections and room noise... I don’t know. It’s certainly possible to program realistic parts with MIDI, but they always sound much more polished to me than real recordings.

CSS can certainly be described as a paradigm. It's a model you follow to style things on the web.

It also doesn't matter if it's all CSS in the end. At one particular end it's all manipulating assembly instructions, but I wouldn't call styling pages writing assembly. That is to say the underlying model or paradigm (styling in this case) doesn't really matter if you build an abstraction on top of it that hides that paradigm.
Agreed. What glycemic load gets at is the concentration of carbohydrates. So for instance, watermellon has a high glycemic index because it has a form of carbohydrate that moves quickly into the blood stream. But it doesn't spike your blood sugar hardly because there is so little total carbohydrate.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it sounds like you're making the argument that there is no such thing as "rational behavior", at least that can be measured somewhat objectively. If that is the case, I must disagree.

Rational behavior is behavior with purpose. It is acting out of self-fulfillment / self-interest / self-preservation in a logical (or internally consistent) way. "I want this, so I am going to do these things because they will help me achieve this goal".

Irrational behavior is when your behavior does not serve to fulfill any sort of goal whatsoever, or if the behavior is totally at odds with your desired goal.

A dog is rational when he wags his tail to entice gifts of food (because his desire is food). A dog is irrational when he bites the hand that feeds him (because he is a dog and still wants food).

Using this formulation of "rational behavior", mentally ill people frequently fall into the "irrational" group, as they will frequently do things for inexplicable and/or random reasons, which do nothing to serve their purported goals. Obviously this depends massively on what type of mental illness we are talking about, but I think Terry's schizophrenia/bipolar disorder generally qualified, as it led to frequent internally-inconsistent behavior.
I'm not saying you were intentionally misleading anyone. What I'm saying is that I'm trying to correct something that I saw as misleading. Criticism is totally fair, but criticism of criticism should be fair game too. I totally appreciate that we shouldn't take these things too personally, but that cuts both ways. I wasn't saying you were trying to be misleading; I was trying to point out an inaccuracy. Given that ripgrep is my project, and myths spread easily, I try to stay on top of that.

> If you don't care or it's too much work

I mean, I do care. Windows users and the prevalence of UTF-16 is why I added the automatic transcoding in the first place. But it's not just that it's too much work; as I said, the performance regression would be so serious that people would literally stop using ripgrep unless it was disabled by default. (In addition to the fact that printing the results puts you in a precarious situation.)

In the US, the mantra is "Am I under arrest?" and if not, "May I leave?" If you're not under arrest, I don't believe that you need to answer questions. Politely, of course. And if you are under arrest, you have the right to counsel during interrogation.
I think a big reason America dominates is having a country with hundreds of millions of people speaking the same language on a massive, resource-rich continent.

If a competitor to Facebook started at the same time in Switzerland, Facebook would have spread dozens of times faster in the states, then given that the internet is global, the network effect would see it defeat competitors one by one.

(You could argue, also, that the immigration situation leads to the US' success, a big chunk of the world's best and brightest migrate to the US. From CNBC:
Apple founder Steve Jobs is the son of a Syrian immigrant,
Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos is a second generation Cuban immigrant,
Google founder Sergey Brin was born in Russia, and
Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin is a Brazilian native.)

I think the VC situation is the other big reason American tech dominates. I don't know enough about how that all works too know why the US succeeds there, but I understand other countries don't have anywhere near the same amount of VC money
The people most worried about AI are the ones not working on it. We don't know how to initialise a simple feed forward neural network yet let alone train it efficiently. It will be centuries before the theory catches up with the proctice. Until then we might as well be monks cross pollinating plants worried about genetic modification.
Recoll is excellent. It was a game changer for me once I finally set it up on a NAS at home with a web interface accesible by port forwarding over ssh. Though the web interface requires some tiny tweaks to be mobile responsive.

+ It searches within compressed file types recursively.

+ Searches damn near everything

+ The huge number of way to interact with it - gui, python, command-line, web interface - combined with extensive if kinda weird query language make it clear its been refined for a long time.

+ Windows GUI

- Pain in the ass to make work right on windows, and the indexing on windows seems to be way longer for some reason.
Not my impression at all that RMS is considered "fringe nuts" here, especially very recently as folks are waking up to what this decade's megatrends (webapps, cloud, ubiquitous mobile) has done to our industry and beyond. It's also a place where sustainability (as in "economical") can be discussed, in particular wrt F/OSS licensing models.

WRT > end-to-end HTTP/2 [2]

I think this is supported.

We are using NGINX with its core Stream module to receive HTTP/2 encrypted traffic, and loadbalance it (with random or least_conn) algorithms -- to each of our backends.

Traffic stays encrypted end-to-end, and it remains HTTP/2 (because the Stream module works at TCP level, not http so it does not care http/2 or http/1 is used).

It seems that in the ticket [2] that you mentioned, the commenter at the end is asking exactly for this. And that works well.

It is called often 'pass-through proxy'.
The article here explains how to set it up

https://serversforhackers.com/c/tcp-load-balancing-with-ngin...

We loose information about the Web-browser's IP address at our backend.
For for privacy-enforcement reasons, we actually do not want to have it at our terminating points (our backend apis).
And also, if we ever need it -- I thin this can be enabled with the proxy protocol.

Likely gross pessimism. We went from clockwork to million-transitor computers in the last 100 years (most of that in the last 25). How long before we hit a billion? A trillion? How long before we hit on the same trick nature blindly hit upon, to initialize her neural networks?
I think nostalgia is more complicated than simply a desire for simplicity, though that may be a part of it - and not just because things were more simple back then, but because we didn't understand the complexity as children. Like those people who don't want politics in media/art even though there always has been, they just didn't know as a kid.

> I'm sad to live in a world where allowing people to run the software of their own choice on their own computers is considered a "huge no-no."

I think it's a little more nuanced than that. Should I be able to run whatever software I want in my printer? Absolutely.

How about the software in my satellite internet radio transceiver (one rogue transceiver could take down the entire beam/jam the satellite)?

How about the software in the micro controllers in my car? Should I be allowed to modify that code too (if I mess up people could die)?
My problem with this take is that people --- including me! --- have been predicting this for decades because the logic just seems so clear, yet unemployment is still low and long-term real wages have not declined, in fact around the world and in most wealth bands they have risen dramatically.

I don't think there's some benevolent cosmic law that ensures job creation will always match job destruction, so I can't assume these dire predictions will never come true. But after so many years crying wolf it's hard to take them seriously until macroeconomic indicators show they're happening.
I think as well there's a snowball effect when you're the world's only superpower - a rich get richer equivalent for countries.

For example, a brain drain to the states because it's seen as wealthy and powerful would only compound that wealth.

But also if you're starting with the best technology and a lot of money, you get ahead of others faster.

At least in my experience, in the Bay area, Russians are some of the best at English. There were a couple times where I was at a Russian social gathering and I thought I was around people born and raised in the US but it turned out they moved to the US from Russia when they turned 18.
CSS is absolutely a paradigm. Not the specific style rules that exist in browsers, but the idea of selectors, specificity and stylesheets.

The fact that it's possible to define layout and styling using just style properties is the giveaway.
