Frustrating that the author parrots the wishful thinking "But once the grid cleans up, not only will electric cars be cleaner than gas cars, they may be more efficient than mass transit." while later admitting "Reducing the need for personal transportation via urban design. Among other reasons, this is important to counter the likely tendency of autonomous cars to increase urban sprawl, which has been strongly correlated with emissions."

The two are strongly linked. Mass transit is necessary because when you have a highly dense city (i.e. when you fight against urban sprawl) you need a higher throughput mode of transit than roads could ever provide. Good luck moving literally 9 million people per day as the Tokyo subway does with a system of automatic electric cars. In this lens of thinking, the solution we need is innovating more efficient mass transit.

The other approach is to increase density but in a distributed manner, a system of "small towns" if you will. Dense small towns are charming and, more importantly, can be walkable so that neither mass transit nor cars are needed for the average citizens' day-to-day. The issue with this approach is that modern civilization is currently demanding the opposite - despite internet technology, we are becoming more centralized in fewer megacities. Find a way to somehow make companies prefer remote work and we might reverse this trend.
Air conditioning is part of the problem, not part of the solution.

It was dumb of me to get into this thread. Arguing about the morality of Krebs' blog in a discussion about neofascist (and arguably, ironic neofascist) doxxing and SWATing was off-topic whataboutism. So sorry.

But for what it's worth, I'll briefly clarify my position. I'm rather anarchistic, but not very collectivist or communitarian. I believe that we're all free to do what we like, consistent with our principals and values. Notwithstanding whatever laws exist. And that includes self defense, and weeding out troublemakers.

So in that sense, I agree that Krebs has the right to doxx supposed criminals. But I also believe that others arguably have the right to act against those who attack them. And of course, everyone else has the right to act against those who attack them, recursively.

So it's fair to root for Krebs, and to attack neofascist doxxers. But, in my opinion, it's deceptive to argue that one is moral, and the other is evil.
Depends on your scenario, but in a general sense, no, the extra degree of confidence from having that extra info is limited.

Just being visible in the OB will cause other people to act differently from if you weren't. This of course has a profound effect on strategies relying on passive orders.

Are you willing to share the story? I would hazard a guess that you played around with mining on your old laptop in 2010, accidentally left it running for a while, mined 10k bitcoin, and sold around the top at 19k each.
To be completely fair tptacek is a recognised security expert. Yes, he likes Signal. Apparently like you, I disagree (their refusal to implement non-personally identifying information as an identity is enough for me). However, I'm not a recognised security expert (and just between you and me, I'm not actually a security expert... or even more than mildly competent... maybe not even that... ;-) ).

He's got his opinions and he states them pretty clearly. I don't think that's a crime. I've discussed his opinions with him in threads before and I can't see anywhere where he's obviously wrong. When I've asked him directly about the identifiers, he's declined to answer -- which makes me think that he probably agrees but thinks that the other issues are more important than that. I could be wrong, but that's my impression.
After reading this somewhat innocuous article and then going through this thread... I think the reason there is so much heated discussion here is that the simple suggestion to invert one's assumptions regarding physical reality and consciousness, also implies an inversion of responsibility.

If it really is the case that consciousness is the basis for reality, then it must also mean that only you, the reader, can find this out for yourself. Then this means you cannot fall back to preachers or scientific publications. It's up to you to do the work. From my experience, even just mentioning this idea of goal-driven contemplative practice often finds a lot of resistance if you don't approach it carefully.

Hmmm, I don't think, if the allegations/accusations were "serious enough" that if (actually having never used the personal devices for work) someone had replied "No, never" they would have taken your word as good, i.e. they would have probably said "OK, now let's check if that is true" and confiscated the devices as well.

Please also understand that when you say "No, never" to a FBI agent, you myst be pretty sure that it is accurate, as if they (still hypothetically) find even a single interaction they could accuse you to lying to a government officer.

Anyway, yours is the right approach, never, and I mean never mix personal with work relatd activities.
What does it mean to "silence" a mutation? If that particular gene is different compared to humans who don't have the same developmental condition, then is the medicine able to instruct the cells to replicate in a way that ignores the mutation and not carry the defect created by the mutation?

Or does the medicine supplement the role of whatever that cell is supposed to do? (Assuming this affects some specific roles cells)

The quest for performance is often also a cause for bloat: pushing something into a background thread now requires the UI thread to be aware that the background thread may not have the results yet - a lot of extra ifs around accesses to the data model. A fancy fast algorithm to solve a problem at larger scales faster is often more complex and performs slower with smaller inputs. So while people have added 5k or 10k LOC to the project to make fast for the occasional large input, performance for the smallest possible inputs may have reduced for an order of magnitude or so.

Then there are the unavoidable features. Accessibility and localization are in that category. Suddenly you need to do extra work every step of the way. Look up translations, format strings with locale dependent rules, build a model for screen readers to process, alternate UI themes and layouts for vision impaired people... death by 1000 paper cuts, but also too important to ignore.

I personally don't think everyone should be treated equally by support.

I've been left waiting at the counter at an auto parts store while the store personnel left me to address the needs of the local auto mechanic's shop (who undoubtedly buys 1000x the parts I buy in a given year). The parts store should prioritize the mechanic over me, because they're a much more valuable customer to the parts store. It doesn't do me any good to have the parts store fold because they served everyone exactly in sequence.

The USPS undoubtedly has specific support lines and discounted rates for high volume mailers while I as a retail customer pay retail prices and get crappy retail support. Amazon and UPS should get much better service from USPS than I do.

Comcast Business customers probably (hopefully) get better service that $99/mo “TriplePlay” residential customers.

People with startups here probably prioritize engaged, paying customers over free users.

Airline Elite or Diamond or Private customers spending $25K or more every year should get better service than the buyer of a once-a-year $250 trans-continental ticket. When an airline experiences a disruption, they're going to re-accommodate their First Class and Elite frequent fliers first.

That's just good business, every bit as much as when I walk into the local diner and the server brings me a coffee prepared as I normally order it before taking someone else's order.
This sounds like an absolute lifesaver for a bunch of people! I'm surprised more people in the comments aren't even a little more enthusiastic.
Repairing a NatureBright SunTouch Plus (2014)
I really don't think this is a bad thing.

In practice it's bad because all our economics and industry is based around infinite growth. It's not about making products so good they last a long time, reduce factory work and increase wages for everyone involved. It's about advertising, selling people more things, pleasing shareholders (which always involves increase revenue; never stability), obsolescence (both planned and negligent), etc. When you talk about reducing overall pollution, reductions in population will reduce consumption and waste.

But for that type of attitude to take hold, there needs to be a huge shit if the way people in both the west and east look at the world. Sadly I don't think that will happen without a crisis, whether that's over or under population. Otherwise people start crying out "eugenics" or some racist "replacement" rubbish.

On a side tangent, I wonder if the very real risk over the abortion debate going to the Supreme Court in the US has an effect on this. Are people choosing to not have kids now because it may not be a choice soon, or if Cassy vs Planned Parenthood gets extended, will the birth rate increase because people lose one of their birth control options?

That's completely unrealistic. The location and schedule of DEMO have not yet been agreed on. For that matter, whether DEMO will be the next major fusion reactor built has not been decided. The US position is that an intermediate facility, the Fusion Nuclear Science Facility, should be built and operated first, to develop and mature systems that DEMO would need (for example, fusion blankets cannot be developed without a strong source of fusion neutrons).

One cloud hanging over all this is that ITER is going to use up most of the world's tritium. With fission in trouble, especially heavy water moderated fission, there will likely not be a continued source of this isotope, and making it intentionally would be extremely expensive ($100M/kg and up.)
I personally find odd the wording:

>... if the grounding of its most popular plane persists ...

as if the grounding was an uncontrollable event, like - say - weather.

I would have written it as:

"if we (Boeing) cannot soon find a solution that is considered safe enough by the relevant Authorities ..."
I think it really depends on your experiment, the size of the trades you're making, and the restrictions you place on your backtest.

Otherwise, they could be an indication of future performance.
The 2 don't have to be perfectly aligned. Wind turbines kill birds, I would expect climate change to kill orders of magnitude more.

So yes you may want to be a purist about it, I'm not sure it's a luxury we can really afford at this time though.
"seniority level" an in "what level have you been promoted to".

At Google you don't have to disclose your level, but most people do and most of my coworkers know I'm L5. At Facebook my understanding is they've tried to build a culture where people don't know each other's levels, to focus more on "what can you do" instead of "what does management think you can do".
We rely on a lot of things without understanding how they work from the dawn of times. They are reliable because they passed the test of time, passed through many generations. On the other hand, our understanding about the inner functioning of them changes - the will of Gods, aether, thermodynamics, quantum physics.

I would only believe in Boeing's good intentions when:

- they were completely honest about issues and improvements

- open(like OSS) process of creating 'new' model

Then they could name it 738, 737Super, whatever. They can't scrap this project, but they can make it clear, for the benefit of passengers and company.

Great post.
On the topic, the Bloomberg terminal is a dinosaur and is slow to start from what I remember but email and most of the features are pretty much instant in their response. There is plenty of resistance from customers to newer features which tend to be more ‘modern’ looking and feature-full but have noticeable latency. To give an example, there is a feature to price mortgage backed bonds, the 15 year old (maybe older?) version loads instantly, takes command line arguments, on the other hand the new version takes maybe a few seconds to load and matches 98% of the old functionality plus 30-50% of new capabilities. The new one is basically universally hated.
Fusion reactors are MUCH more complex than fission reactors. So, just comparing volume is being very favorable to fusion. There should be a complexity multiplier in there as well, but that's difficult to quantify.

This complexity also means keeping that fusion reactor running would be a nightmare. Complex things break, and the fusion reactor will be so irradiated that hands on maintenance will be impossible.

I will add that fission power plants are uncompetitive even if you ignore the cost of the reactor itself.
I worry about this as a part of a larger trend of more proprietary and enforced ignorance in service of vested interests instead of transparency in service of all who can look and think.

Warns who exactly? I don't really see any airline passenger be saddened but the fact they will not be flying 737 MAX (or rebrands).
That's great, but when your great country brings the whole world to its knees, when the financial system collapses, all you have left is your eyes to cry. In the future, it will not be good to be too rich... Don't put your money in, buy a pair of air max to run fast;)
Cool story, and definitely climate warming is real, but this doesn't scale. Hot weather is not new to the mediterranean, and neither are droughts. The mediterranean basin is blessed with being able to cultivate almost anything. It is certainly possible to cultivate tropical fruit and tropical animals are not strangers (lions used to live in greece). But there are at times harsh non-tropical winters and at times snow. These plants can't survive those that's why they were never grown en masse.

The targeting of ads on Facebook is complete garbage. But it seems to have improved in the sheer quantity. It wasn't even one to one, more so two ads for one bit of content from friends I actually was interesting.

My usage went way down from hours a week to maybe ten minutes. I don't know how the the algorithms work but I just started hitting the report button on ever single ad. There are still some of those insidious ads that pretend to be legitimate posts but my usage is up. I actually get to see interesting content from friends and family.
It is, but it's also true that spending a little bit human time on using the right tool for the job (and getting devs do their jobs) now might be cheaper in the long run that letting shoddy work slowly bleed your finances. Compute isn't free.

Given the rate of decline of cost of renewables, a fission reactor anything like ITER by 2060 will be museumware.

I don't think DEMO is ever getting built, btw. I suspect ITER is not going to have a very happy operational experience either (disruptions, maintainability). If ITER cannot effectively control disruptions they won't ever operate it with DT.

The idea that "renewables suck for the grid" is not correct. The very low levelized price of renewables means there's a lot of economic headroom to deal with intermittency.
Is there any voice unconnected to Boeing, that has authority and the pilot and passenger interests at heart on this matter?

Is the FAA and other industries unmoved by the company’s financial woes (as they shouldn’t), or is there pressure on these industries to let the broken plane back into circulation?

The press I’ve read from
Boeing and their leaks on the matter don’t inspire confidence or trust; and I worry they have compromised the industries that are supposed to look after us.

What's "acceptable risk" is basically a matter of social consensus so anything human drivers (as a group) are ok with is de-facto acceptable.

I think the engineers know the software drives un-humanly but they can't change it because driving like a dick within the letter of the law results in far less legal liability than driving like a human and breaking the law.
I had 2 experiences recently where an acquaintance would’ve died, if not for called in favors to doctors who were personal friends.

The doctors they went to wrote things off and sent them on their way multiple times, but they reached out to close friends for recommendations on second opinions because they still didn’t feel right. Doctor A tells Doctor B to do him a favor and take a closer look, and lo and behold, emergency surgery saved their life.

I think the particular shape of normal human consciousness is a product of evolution, but I don't think consciousness itself is. People can experience altered states of consciousness which can be detrimental to their survival such as psychosis, disassociation, alexithymia (inability to perceive emotions of oneself and others), and aphantasia (inability to create mental imagery). Additionally some psychologists theorise that consciousness / intelligence is in fact a liability to survival because it allows us to ideate suicide as a solution to negative feelings, and that we have had to evolve mitigations to prevent this.
