It's also an idiom Alex Sotirov coined 10 years ago:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heap_feng_shui
The effect has only been seen in aquatic animals so far, but they are exposed to much more microplastics than humans are.

But microplastics don't (on a human timescale) go away.

They just continue to accumulate as plastic items degrade in UV light and water, breaking down into smaller and smaller pieces.

Microplastics have been detected in the feces of humans: https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2018/10/22/659568662/mi...

And the bottom of the Marianas trench: https://www.nationalgeographic.com/environment/2018/12/micro...

And they're harmful to sea life: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/from-fish-to-huma...

And smaller microplastic particles, which all larger particles eventually become, can float through the air.

It is not unreasonable to assume that the problem is going to keep getting worse and worse as time goes on until it gets to a point where every breath we take is contaminated shards of plastics: https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Photographs-of-microplas...

https://www.nationalgeographic.com/environment/2019/04/micro...

I'm not a doctor, or a plasticsologist, or a breathing-things-in-ologist, but breathing in large quantities of plastic shards seems less healthy than not doing so and just from a layman's perspective it seems that exposure to microplastics in the air and water should be minimized to the greatest extent possible.

Hmm.

>(now here is where we could put some Alan Kay quotes, I'll start with his exasperation at our lack of a real CAD system for programming)

CAD is the worst example, maybe. It requires precision in order to not crush down a bridge and typing commands with numbers gives you that in a much better way than a pure GUI.
In theory I like the idea of LastPass's better "inheritence system" better.

You set an account heir in the profile. They submit an access request after death, which the deceased has X amount of time to reject (in case of abuse/heir being hacked). If the request isn't denied, the heir gains full access to the account, including logins and passwords for all online accounts.

If you choose someone you trust and set the window to an appropriate period for rejecting false requests, i.e. not 3 days when I know I'll be off the grid for 2 weeks, it seems very secure.

Either the USB-A dongle or the USB-C one should work in all of these cases with an additional dongle (sigh).

By the way: I recommend getting the larger keys, not the nanos. These nanos look cute, but especially the newer ones are intended to be fixed to one device permanently, which in my opinion is both inconvenient and not the intended usage.

I wonder if iPad apps will start supporting Yubikeys — especially with the new iPad pros and their USB-C port it seems natural.

Ideally, I'd love to see Blink integrate ssh-agent, gpg-agent and its card support, which would let me use my existing (excellent) setup for using GPG keys stored on a Yubikey for ssh (see https://github.com/drduh/YubiKey-Guide for a great writeup of this approach).

> Overlapping windows as an interface metaphor were invented over 40 years ago with the Xerox Star. Since then, the amount and complexity of how we use computers has increased dramatically. Windows are now inefficient and incompatible with modern productivity interfaces. For more, read my blog post "Window Management is Outdated".

Uuhm [1]:

> The first Xerox Star system (released in 1981) tiled application windows, but allowed dialogs and property windows to overlap.[1] Later, Xerox PARC also developed CEDAR[2] (released in 1982), the first windowing system using a tiled window manager.

Tiling window managers were first, and I think I prefer the less bloated offerings already available compared to this.

What does this do for productivity that existing tiling managers do not? or is this a mac/windows specific thing.

[edit]

Yeah this sounds horrible:

> Click and hold on the touchpad with one finger to open the context menu wherever you are looking. Then swipe to select an action.

How is this better than a right click context menu? it's not, it's a physically slower event, and a UI that is less capable of adapting to it's context due to geometric limitations just cos "CIRCLES". This is integrating phone HID into desktops for the sake of it, this is unification at the cost of productivity not for the benefit of productivity.

I have checked this earlier. Its pretty cool stuff, but its more in the direction of userspace emulation like what GVisor do.

The OP expressed he wanted to use (or create idk) a micro-kernel based OS, and that in the end he would like to scrap the Linux kernel.

Of course the solution you are pointing out will deliver in one of those axis, but the solution im pointing out would deliver in both, Linux emulation/sandboxing and a micro-kernel based OS controlling all of this.

I just think that the direction Fuchsia is going, has a little bit more to do, to what he is trying to achieve.

But he can totally mix the 'syscall proxy' solution of ChromeOS and a micro-kernel, even if this would still be Zinc or something else. And depending on the goal, maybe having this in userspace level would make more sense. He just need a good and flexible IPC communication (like the one in Chrome, or something on the kernel level).
> Visiting a zoo is not visiting nature

Of course not. But being able to see a giraffe in "nature" isn't something most people could ever do.

> I would not want people to get the impression that as long as we keep a few breeding pairs of every animal in our museums, there is no need to preserve places for them to live in actual nature.

Is anyone actually getting that impression? Seeing animals in zoos often is a catalyst for wanting to improve habitats in the wild. If you've never seen a giraffe, why would someone care about a giraffe habitat? It's abstract when it's "over in Africa" -- it's real when you can see the animal yourself and thus you're going to be more passionate about protecting those animals' habitats.

> I personally worry that equivocating the two is dangerous

I'm willing to bet a visit to SeaWorld has led to more kids wanting to be marine biologists and protect the oceans that any other experience. Nobody is suggesting that SeaWorld is the ocean. SeaWorld is a window into the wonderment that is out there in the real ocean. Look at the Monterey Aquarium -- they are significant drivers of marine preservation and education. Should the aquarium be closed, lest someone mistake the fact that they aren't actually viewing the animals in the real ocean?

> I think you're eliding the fact that technology development and specifically startup growth are current strategic priorities for the PRC, and making a straw man by framing my argument as "China will change course because of a PG blogpost".

It's not a strawman when that is exactly what you wrote:

>> Meh...PG writing a blog post entitled "Why YC Is Quitting China" would cause plenty of tsoris in Beijing, and the Chinese certainly know this.

>> Absolutely nobody but a very select few people would care.

> Are you kidding me, it would be on the front page of the Journal. People would care after that.

YC is incredibly important to the start-up world but strategic priorities of the PRC aside if YC leaves China then that's not going to move any needles. If Google isn't powerful enough to make a play there you can just about forget what influence YC has there. To think that PG can influence Chinese policy with a blogpost is ridiculous.

> And also, do you really know multiple people who do not know what year 9/11 happened?

Yes. They typically know it was somewhere in the early 00's but not what specific year. It baffles me, but it is about as solid a fact as I have about this given that I've tried this many times now. Feel free to conduct your own little experiment and see what happens. I think in part it is because everybody always talks about 9/11 without adding the year.

Edit: FWIW: I just checked one more person and they did not in fact remember what year it was, only be linking it to some event in their own life were they able to make the connection.
Thomas Sowell, like so many conservative thinkers, is a stupid person's idea of what a smart person sounds like. If that's too harsh for you, sorry, but that's what happens when angry Austrians go through the thread systematically downvoting anyone who doesn't agree with them.
>The dolphin's toothy grin masks its suffering and contributes to the myth that dolphins in theme parks enjoy a happy life. In truth, dolphins cannot move their facial muscles to communicate inner feelings like humans can. Dolphins appear to smile even while injured or seriously ill. The smile is a feature of a dolphin's anatomy unrelated to its health or emotional state.

We need to stop assuming as people we're able to tell the emotions of non-humans without specific training/experience.
For a company which primarily sells consumer products it makes sense to omit hardware checksums: You just detect errors which the end user might never notice, a bit flip in a picture you never look at again might not be that bad.

I usually don’t reply to moderators but these are simple economic facts.

2. When you spend more than you bring in that causes debt.

Right, I think this is somewhat just talking past each other. You don't have to backtrack on the values, but it is essentially searching on the constraints.

You either are or aren't dumping waste into moving bodies of water. Whether you're efficient about it ("per capita") is of little concern.

Use economic incentives to penalize countries that allow dumping into their rivers. The first world is no longer able to export their "recyclables" to Asia, and as such, are landfilling/incinerating it. It's time for Asia to clean up its act (regardless of how poor of a country you are).

My presence in private is a protected right in the United States. Being able to track which office I go into in a complex, tracking which room in a house I am in, etc. These types of things require a warrant based on reasonable suspicion and this has been ruled on numerous times. If you're moving from place to place in public view, sure, that's allowed. The police can also follow you and watch you enter a building, but what is the functional difference between preventing access to my house to watch me move from room to room and using cell phone data to track me. My carrier is someone I contract with. I pay them. They should be working in my favor to the fullest extent of the law. While I sympathize with overburdened police forces and tough crimes there's a reason we have these protections in place, to prevent a police state where the police are more beholden to the state than the public it is expected to be serving.

I can absolutely see why transportation authorities like LADOT want this data. Heck, I can see why the public at large would want this data! There are a lot of ways that data could improve urban management.

And nowadays, we have the technology to unlock that value without violating peoples privacy. Using GAN's, an e-scooter company could turn over data that is exactly as useful to the public and the real dataset, except it's not about real users. It's about a shadow universe of people who behave just like real people, but aren't.

NVIDIA's https://thispersondoesnotexist.com/ is probably the best known example of this technique, but transportation data would be a fantastic application.
>It's not the difference between adults and children, but adults and expert adults.

Part of me wants to challenge the existing groupings of adults and children where all that matter is if you have been around the sun 18 times or not. This is but one weakness in the existing grouping that furthers my questions, such as why do we allow the non-expert adults a vote over laws, but deny a 17 year old the same?

I think if you take the groups of children, adults, and expert adults you will find upon reducing them to only two groups based on similarity that you are left with experts and non-experts.
