I'm always glad to see competition in any space - especially anything that can keep the big boys (Medium!) in check. Kudos to you for giving this a shot!

Although, while i wish you plenty of luck, the only way you're going to get my money is if/when you think about functions and features supporting things like POSSE or even better yet ActivityPub. The last few years have taught me that I'm not going to spend my money on organizations that don't align with my values of wanting more decentralization. If organization X helps foster more indie web concepts, then I'll happily pay. If you don't support decentralization, then I'll pass, thank you very much.

By all means, please don't receive this as a slight to your service - i do honestly wish you luck. Take this simply as a signal from a potential customer clearly informing you of what services and features that i'm (gladly!) willing to pay.

Again, best of luck with you venture!!
Virginia has a similar provision:

§ 46.2-924: ... No pedestrian shall enter or cross an intersection in disregard of approaching traffic. ...

Sadly, that clause is never enforced on pedestrians who do "enter or cross ... in disregard of approaching traffic". I've even seen some who seem to have some kind of personal death wish. They approach an intersection at full walking speed, do not even look to see what traffic is doing (and are not phone distracted either), do not slow down, and just burst out into traffic.

Yes, drivers bear a large responsibility here, given that they are operating the 3000+lb machine. But some enforcement of the statute clauses that already exist against the worst offenders on the pedestrian side, to reduce the incidents of pedestrian forcing their way in front of moving vehicles without regard to the presence of those vehicles, would also go a long way towards reversing the statistics direction.
That is too large to be considered 'core' and too unstructured to be considered a 'team'.

Hence these issues, arguably.

If you look at marginal impact then BEVs have no emissions, because generating capacity is primarily growing in the renewable energy segment.

In fact there is an even bigger benefits to BEVs: New BEVs are being made to allow sending current the opposite direction. Hence the BEV fleet can be used as a large battery for storing renewable in times of overproduction and selling it back when it is needed.

In other words adopting renewable energy REQUIRES BEVs.
High energy experimental physics died in the 1973. It's long since been time to pull the plug on this zombie. It was obviously true in the 90s when I was picking a specialization. It's even more true today.

Yes, this is a separate issue. jackson-databind is a XML/JSON parser so I was presuming a web stack here and that your customer wouldn't necessarily know what your backend was. Which also means that it is up to you to secure it properly, which has its own risk.

I'd just point out that accepting any customer's policy as something you implicitly agree to support is inherently risky without an adequate contract between the relevant parties. Presumably, you've signed a contract with the customer, and if they have a no-CVE policy, there's SLAs that you can point to that say what is and isn't covered, and by what date. So it is just the price of doing business and both parties know that this'll impact the delivery of other features, bug fixes, &c. Otherwise, your business-people aren't doing a great job of covering the costs of doing business with said customer... :)

Without much better developer tooling, we'll always be trying to catch up with the people who find vulnerabilities. People aren't perfect. Tools aren't perfect either. But they can complement each other nicely and currently most projects err on the side of "too little" rather than "too much" tooling.
I can "replay" events, but honestly I'm not sure I'm recalling or reconstructing an event; that is, I'm not sure if the images are memories or I'm creating them on the fly, as I can come up with "movies" in my head very easily, actors, sfx, and all.
Gasoline burns very cleanly in modern (that is, <10 years) vehicles, with little to no emissions other than CO2, and most importantly, no particulate pollution. Particulate pollution is much worse for diesel vehicles, though.

Compared to those two, though, coal power plants are dirty as hell, and I’d take equivalent amount of car emissions to generate the same power over coal any day.

> it would break performance or be hard to model in those terms, say simulations, game development, directly working with hardware and so on

Performance seems to be the problem there more than the model not fitting. And Rich’s answer would probably be that Clojure isn’t the right tool for those tasks in the same way that any general-purpose GC’d language isn’t.

Modeling a game or sim as a successive series of immutable states sounds great to me, so I’m curious where you see a mismatch with them. Abstracting hardware properties this way sounds useful too, but I’ve not worked with it enough to comment.

> I believe that people do metaphorically exaggerate the quality of their visual memories. I recall some experiments that reveal that when these people are poked about specific details of their visualizations they do realize that those parts just were "undefined" and were not actually seeing a "rendered image".

Note that there are two components here that you may be talking about: 1) the visual definition or "vividness" 2) the factual accuracy of the content.

I'd say it's likely you'd find counterexamples in either case, but if you're speaking of 1), it seems to me that I personally have a more vivid visual memory than you are describing. When I recollect a scene, I usually see the imagery in moderate detail, with believable colour and textures. These colours are probably not all (perhaps not even most) factually accurate, but I do see actual colours and shapes which are perhaps 3/5 (if you can quantify such a thing) of their visual intensity at the time I'd experienced them. For some particularly memorable events, I'd estimate it at even more.

The intensity and detail also varies with my current surroundings and mental state. For instance, if I'm in a quiet, dark room or if I've just woken up, the visualizations are much stronger. Particularly after just waking up, it sometimes feels as if I'm experiencing it right now.
The medium is the message.

TV news results in news becoming pageant hair, red dresses, and flag waving graphics. TV changed what it meant to be informed and the end state was what we have now.

It's easy to see that the social medium will and did change the message. It also changes what it means to be informed, but in a different way than TV did.

If we are the media does that mean it changes the form of what it means to be person and social life?
Wouldn't it be better to return a kind of ENOENT status if the process creating the pipe has disappeared (or its PID recycled)? Seems like a design flaw since PIDs have finite lifetimes and not communicating that through any API call return could pose a potentially serious security issue.
I remember things similarly to you. My high school memories are mostly just a handful of images that I can recall at any given time. But I've found a few ways to jog my memory in those a bit:

* Rereading old journal entries - I didn't do a ton back then, but I did them periodically. Some things in them I'm surprised happened to me, because I didn't remember them

* Rereading old emails and chat logs and forum posts and look at old photos - I'm kind of a digital packrat, and still have a lot of that

* Meet with friends and family and reminisce - I don't do much of the reminiscing, they do, and they remind me of things I had forgotten about.

I also think part of my problem for remembering things is I don't orally tell stories about myself that often, especially repeatedly. It seems that people who do that can recall them that much more easily. Journaling and rereading the journals helps me recall stories about my life though, and tend to be the stories I do tell others when I do.

I was pretty introverted and inward thinking too, especially back then. It's possible they didn't get imprinted but I think it's also possible that memories are fleeting and can go away if you don't actively record them.

I got better for awhile about writing things down right when they happened, and the amount of detail in those journal entries are much, much, more detailed than when I try to record things even a month after the fact. Memories can slip way too easily, I think.

Speaking of which, I've gotten way behind on journaling and need to get back on that.

I'd love to have these tests done. I have a friend from college who serves as my memory of my college experience. She can recall all manner of events and sequences of events from over a decade ago that I can't even vaguely recall. I experience memories of the long past as postcards. A few disconnected images or feelings without sequence or much context. I've always been impressed when people can remember details of times long past and I've observed almost everyone is better at it than I am.

It makes a lot more sense to build gas power plants as a stop gap measure. Built them to support gasification of biomass. Thus you can due feel them with natural gas or biomass as needed. This is much faster to get going and cheaper than nuclear.

With nuclear you spend such an enormous amount of money building it, that there is not going back on the decision afterwards. Nuclear power plants are having enormous cost overruns and they keep the project going because they don't want tens of billions of euros to be for nothing.

I'd say build gas power plants to buy some time to get the grid working better. Some coal plants can be converted to biomass plants.

"Enterprise software" to me is anything huge bought by a huge company or government authority to run their business. Like a bank, airline or insurance company that have enormous bespoke ERP/CRM deployments. Something that typically runs on either a mainframe (back in the day) or now more likely an in-house datacenter with machines running Oracle and SAP and all that.

The article is right: employees hate these systems. Always. But there are few ways to replace a bespoke CRM/ERP system with a few "loved" apps.

I don't consider the "enterprise version" of a simple do-one-thing app as being "enterprise software". That's just end-user/consumer software with unlimited whatevers and an expensive support contract.

A few years ago, I was very inspired by Daniel Kish and others who use echolocation. So I started a side project called Project Sonorous. Sonorous was a prototype to explore combining AR with echolocation and 3D audio. This allows you to translate visual spatial information into echolocation-like audio cues through headphones.

I would still love to work on this idea in the future. But it would require a lot of funding and advanced technology (similar to that used by self-driving cars.)

Yes. They also have kids with working immune system and if their children get measles, they have enough money to have them checked before anything debilitating happens. The child of my mother's cousins died in 2016 because he couldnt get vaccinated (his immune system was too weak), and those antivax who chose not to vaccine their children disturbed the herd immunity. Murderers.
It depends on the variables. Besides, we can't even measure the risks.
I ride the L most days, and mostly think it's great, but the systems are not really comparable. The subway has over 10x the ridership and is vastly more important to New York's economy than the L is to Chicago's.

I don’t think you realize how much cars cost in Norway the country has an effective tax rate on cars that is over 100%.

A new Ford Focus with all taxes and fees will cost you around $50,000, the base model without fees alone starts at around $35,000 (320,000 NOK).

That’s a $12-13K car in the US, a Tesla on the otherhand might cost you even lower than the US sticker price under some circumstances, especially on the officially refurbished ones.

Add other benefits on top of that and the fact that petrol in Norway costs $7 per gallon, money is the pretty much the only reason why people buy Tesla’s and other EVs at such high rates in Norway.

I agree that texting while driving is a key part of it, no doubt.

But, I’d propose another one, too. New aerodynamic designs locate the A pillars in a place in most cars that eliminates huge swaths of my peripheral vision. Backup cameras also make up for increasingly awful side vision and rear vision.

I drive an 1990s land cruiser a few weeks ago and the visibility was amazing. You didn’t need cameras because the hood was low, the windshield was flat and upright and the side windows weren’t tinted black. Old land rovers and pickups were the same.
The folks making the "cardiogram" app were somehow able to figure out which of the users had diabetes simply by monitoring pulse. This was part of a study they did with an academic institution (UCSF? -- can't remember) and not a feature they advertise. This isn't the same as figuring out BG level but is quite interesting nonetheless.
The Norway new car tax is above 100% for ICEs. So you can either buy a 30k ICE or 60k Tesla (which is taxed 0%), and get a lot more value for your money - in addition to that you have free parking in the cities too for electrics.
I forget where I saw it, but I think the 14th street closure allows local deliveries. Trucks find it easier to deliver because they no longer have to double park.
Future citizens will look back at objections to banning cars from Manhattan like we look back at objections to smoking in New York bars and restaurants -- like throwbacks to a dirty, barbaric era we would be horrified to return to.

I remember showering after getting home from bars and the smell of smoke coming out of my hair. People claimed we'd lose business to Hoboken bars where people could still smoke.

Within a couple years, Hoboken had to ban smoking in bars and restaurants to stop losing business to Manhattan.
Also, price of gas is 2.5x higher in Norway than somewhere like the USA.

If you're in the USA and fill your tank once a week, you probably spend ~$2000/yr in gas. And that's how much you'd save in gas if you went electric.

In areas with higher fuel prices, the incentive is proportionally larger.

(That's ignoring the cost of paying your electric bill, not sure if that changes the math much..)
