Both linear options you show with afb between the workplaces is a significant improvement over current options, as current zoning makes even choosing an in between location impossible for nearly everyone. Typically both workers are required to commute in quite similar directions because development has only been allowed further and further out from existing development.

Also, Moving such that one person can take transit or walk would also be a huge huge improvement in traffic.
I think this is awesome and the path forward. After reading a lot of the comments I think one thing that could help very much with the pain of this transition is encouraging a culture shift in how computer laborers are required to drive to a computer at work every day instead of just using the computer in their house... Seems obvious to me anyway.

This whole submarine vegan agenda is annoying. Yes, people will choose to go with the artificial beef. No it's not going to replace beef. It's a subsitute.

A few things:

1. Cows are not optimized to make meat: Animals aren't a food factory. Animals eat other animals. We are animals and happen to have a wide variety of what we can eat

2. There are distinct benefits from eating meat (vitamins), in which it's incredibly inefficient from getting them from plants

3. The feedlots and environmental problems, that's an issue of our economy. Theres a particular expectation on output.

4. The impossible burger: The author is incredibly disingenuous about the comparison. He is trying to claim that the burger has so many bad aspects but completely ignores how ultra-processed the beyond burger is.

5. The author is completely obsessed on cows. There are MANY more alternatives to cows that you can eat.
"Chipotle, Arby’s and Burger & Lobster are not jumping on the Beyond Meat and Impossible Foods plant-based culinary movement ... We have spoken to those folks and, unfortunately, it wouldn’t fit in our ‘food with integrity’ principals because of the processing, as I understand it, that it takes to make a plant taste like a burger. ... Are they healthier as far as sodium, calories and fat content? Definitely not ... Zarabi says processed foods, whether they’re meatless or meat-containing, are never the healthiest choice."

> But modern planning in the US is hyper-detailed to the point where it stifles the natural evolution of our cities.

That may be true, but as was pointed out by commenters to a recent Strong Towns article, planners are the least of our problems. It's zoning policies and NIMBYs--which through various public comment and challenge procedures effectively gives them veto power--which are far and away the greatest impediment to healthy, incremental growth.

The days of Robert Moses are long gone. Almost all professional planners subscribe to the religion of Jane Jacobs[1], sometimes to a fault. We don't need to get into the philosophical weeds about top-down vs bottom-up evolution. Our most substantial problems lie along a different axis.

[1] The tenets of the religion vary among the adherents, like any mature religion.

I disagree with this piece; it seems like the author doesn't like beef in general (which is fine) but I don't think most people will give up beef for "alt meat".

If anyone on your team is interested, we are working on a new plain text graph database called TreeBase: https://treenotation.org/treeBase/. Perhaps there are ideas you all could take away that would help make your products better.

I've been following Dgraph for a while and your GraphQL+- iteration on GraphQL. Clearly you folks understand the semantics and how to build a database that can handle massive scale.

Our focus is on much smaller databases (at the moment, nothing larger than what would be a few million rows), but I think the syntax we have makes the whole thing easier to understand and makes data more accessible to users. Maybe this is completely irrelevant, but if there might be something of value to your users here, feel free to have someone get in touch: yunits@hawaii.edu.

You can't ask a founder this and not expect a pitch, so here goes:

Having built a similar bespoke stack in the past, Balena would have been a steal! It gives you the development, provisioning, build & deployment, configuration, management, and even remote debugging workflows out of the box. On top of that, it's built to require web/cloud developer skills, not embedded skills.

To do that, we have created several companies worth of infrastructure, from a cross-architecture container build system, to a bespoke OS supporting many device types, customized docker engine for embedded use cases, container deltas for bandwidth saving, etc. Even simple things like "how do I make sure my device gets DNS in an arbitrary home network" are incredibly tricky, and balenaOS gets it right almost always.

Which brings me to my next point. We are fanatical about support. We take responsibility for our customers succeeding, which means we constantly find and improve sources of friction. Using Balena gets you that backup team, but most importantly gets you hooked up to the flow of improvements we make all the time. Cloud companies charge $15 per server per month for various devops type services. We do very similar things but for devices that are smaller, more diverse, in tougher conditions, with less reliable networking, and ask for just $1 per device per month.

In other words, when I was in the shoes of our customers, producing even a fraction of the value and piece of mind that Balena provides in house took a lot of work, which was money, and that's not accounting for the time and risk of not getting there in the end. If I found myself in that situation again, knowing Balena and not using it would essentially be negligent. Our most fanatical customers are those who have tried to build something like it themselves, because infrastructure is so easy to underestimate.

Is the market for drugs really free though? I believe that in a free market there is supposed to be no coercion between the parties to a transaction. In the case of drug purchases there may be a kind of coercion involved -- a health issue (diabetes, cancer, etc.) that makes one party to the transaction unable to negotiate effectively.

Last time I checked, not all beef is consumed as hamburgers.

The alt meat craze (if there is one) is due to the novelty factor. The interest will decline over time.

Uh, yeah, good luck with that. Based on my own experience, money values that require actual precision are one of the most difficult problems in back end software development.

Personally, I prefer the current interfaces-based solution to generics. It's a little verbose, but keeps the language simple.

However, I think that the people we should be listening most are the ones developing huge projects in Go, like Kubernetes. Would having generics with this new contracts thing make it easier to develop and maintain e.g. Kubernetes? I'm truly curious.
Serious question: why would I want to use this instead of tests as part of the CI process? Or would the use case be to use both but just get faster feedback from Lefthook?
I don't see, why this should be a matter of capitulation, especially on the desktop environment. Users have been able to maintain a basic understanding of similar schemes and were able to operate them for centuries. Compared to most real world schemes and regulations, basic URIs are exceptionally regulated (there is such a thing as a well-formed URL) and easy to understand. What changed?

(My go to example is the level of understanding required to operate a kitchen and to prepare a meal, which is surprisingly high, but not worth even mentioning. Users do understand the difference of a spoon and a knife, as long as they understand the relevance of this to them. They are even able to operate an oven and to deviate from complex recipes in creative ways, while finding and managing all kind of equipment and managing time critical work flows. Is a similar operational understanding of what may be the most important technology of our time really asking too much?)

There are a lot of people in this thread conflating 'mature' with 'in decline'.

Remember that there are many, many species of tree with a natural lifespan in their preferred environment that can be measured in hundreds of years. That's a huge time period between full-sized and 'slowly falling apart'.

A tree in decline may have heart rot. Every year its losing wood while making new. It's a fight against gravity and the elements. When the losses outpace the gains the tree loses integrity, major limbs start falling off, and eventually the trunk fails. If you told me this tree is carbon neutral, I'd have to take your word for it. But for the previous thirty years? That tree was socking away tons - literally - of carbon.

There are "mature trees" in the world today that will outlive the children sitting beneath them.

Rather than an omnibar returning search results, would be interesting if it returned from somewhere like your bookmarks & if you typed in something not in bookmarks, it could show you results & for the first link you click have a dialog "Do you want 'Facebook' to always link to this site?"

This is awesome. If I understand this correctly, this would allow you to write a library that allows you to wait on multiple, fully independent queues from a single consumer thread. At the moment, those queues would have to share a mutex.

Building tools that build CRUD apps is a necessity once you realize the commonalities of those apps. I've done this several times when I found myself involved in database applications development. Its really something that you _should_ do; otherwise you're wasting time and risking the creation of new errors by simply coding apps.

The great thing is to hand the tools off to someone junior who is just able to understand them - the gratitude is very satisfying.
why are people obsessed with simplicity? there's a quotation my Einstein that I like to keep in mind: "make things as simple as they can be but no simpler". the implication being that if you make things too simple then you actually break things. lack of generics makes for software that's actually more complex than it needs to be. Take for example Swift: lots of complex features (protocols, all manner of functional transformations, generics, enums, structs, iterators, objects with many method qualifiers, etc) but really nice and efficient to program in.

"The California-based company said net loss widened to $6.6 million in the three months ended March 30, from $5.7 million a year earlier. First-quarter net revenue came in at $40.2 million, an increase of 215%, the company said. Analysts had expected revenue of $38.9 million." - reuters.

I'm starting to think more and more that people promoting plant based burgers have either never tasted beef or never tasted a plant based burger.

If the main concern is environment I get it and go for it. But if you are claiming that plant based burgers are healthier or tastier you are borderline delusional.

Last time I cooked a Beyond Meat burger I noticed it was 30% canola oil. 30% CANOLA OIL, might as well just inject cholesterol and fast forward a heart attack.

I still get nightmares when I think of how bad the flavor was, think of the most processed food you possibly can like jolly ranchers and then imagine a salty fatty version of it.

I legit don't understand how this trend keeps going even though vegetarian burgers made with vegetables are delicious and way healthier and there are alternative cuisines like Indian or Mediterranean that gives you loads of options that aren't basically CANOLA OIL.

That huge drop in tent-camping at Big Bend during the summer is a solid warning. If you do, I highly recommend doing so in the mountains, where it can be 20-40F cooler than the lower altitudes.

I camped at Chisos Basin in July a couple years ago. We were hoping to canoe and camp along the river for a night, but that section of the Rio Grande was mostly dried up at the time. The days were in the 90s and the nights were mid-80s. At lower altitudes, the temps were around 115F during the day.

Regardless, I highly recommend the park overall. It's absolutely breathtaking. We did the Lost Mine trail, which is about 5 miles round trip. The view at the top is just outstanding.

In the article the author talks about eating both a beef burger and cheese, so I don't think he has a "vegan agenda".

> 2. There are distinct benefits from eating meat (vitamins), in which it's incredibly inefficient from getting them from plants

Raising meat with today's common production methods (feed lots) is incredibly inefficient. In fact, a plant based diet can meet all nutritional requirements with just B12 vitamins. Many vitamins and minerals in meat and dairy are there because of supplementation, not because they're natural.

> 3. The feedlots and environmental problems, that's an issue of our economy. Theres a particular expectation on output.

Which is why plant based diets, both processed foods like these burgers and un/ lightly processed (beans, nuts, tofu and tempeh, pulses) are a solution. They can be grown much more efficiently than meat and take a huge load off of our environment and emissions.

> 5. The author is completely obsessed on cows. There are MANY more alternatives to cows that you can eat.

Cows are also some of the worst animal agriculture product emissions wise and a good chunk of the standard American diet. It's also definitely the star of these fast food restaurants he discusses that these plant based meats are aiming for.
