You're right, it's a poor example. I guess I was thinking of tomato pastas and tomato soups, for instance.

A better one, like you mention, is rice - again a crop with substantially worse carbon impact than chicken.

Fruits are even more complex - if you get them in season, locally and actually eat them, they are fantastic. If you buy them out of season, due to their short shelf-life you'll find they are often air shipped and have outsize waste at the retail level. Avocado is a good example here, water issues aside. In season they have a small impact, out of season they are air-shipped from South America to the rest of the world.

My point being: There are large and non-obvious differences, and they do not clearly align with traditional diets.
I guess reading and processing 10x the data had better performance.
Yes, costs include decommissioning. I have no idea where the idea that large nuclear plants have never been decommissioned - dozens have. Total costs exceeded projections by ~40 billion euros. But in aggregate France's nuclear projects are dirt cheap compared to the hundreds of billions or even trillions of dollars to be spent in other countries' non-nuclear decarbonization plans. And it's offset by the 3.3 billion euros of power exported to neighboring countries that fail to meet their energy needs through non-nuclear energy (namely Germany which foolishly decided to prematurely close it's nuclear plants). France has created electricity generation that is both cheap and carbon free.

obvioulsy no. i hate the people, i dont want to save the world. i only love my cat, and because this, i stop eating meat. i dont want to know there are other lives with feelings suffering because of me.
Look man - I am not a philosopher. Ask yourself.

I'm just some guy who has, or think I have, a little more access to "chinese thought" than I commonly see around here. I thought it would be useful or at least interesting to bring up a perspective I don't see commonly shared, not endorsing it, just tabling it for consideration. Answering questions such as yours is above my pay grade.
That link does not show that they've given control over encryption to the CCP. Apple is on record stating that they have not done this.

"Encryption for us is the same in every country in the world...We worked with a Chinese company to provide iCloud, but the keys [...] are ours...I wouldn't get caught up in 'where's the location of it,' I mean we have servers located in many different countries in the world. They're not easier to get data from being in one country versus the next...The key question is how does the encryption process work, and who owns the keys — if anyone. In most cases for us, you and the receiver [of a message] own the keys." - Tim Cook

> Name the protein and fat sources that will replace meat.

All sorts of beans like soybeans and others, legumes, chickpeas, lentils, tempeh and tofu yes are good products. More than enough protein to feed people, much healthier too.

Look ,its just not true there is nothing magical about meat. It's highly environmentally impactful and completely optional.
I Jailbreak my own iPhone, and I'm personally delighted about checkm8. But for most people, this is yet another "unrealistic workaround".

Imagine you're a Hong Kong protester. You're spending a significant portion of your time in the streets, and the rest at work, or school, or whatever other life tasks you're responsible for. Do you really want to spend an hour reading up on how to Jailbreak your phone? And then, because this is a "tethered" Jailbreak, what happens if your phone reboots and you're not near a computer?

There is a balance to be struck here. Sideloading can't be too easy, lest people get tricked into doing it. But it shouldn't require more than five minutes, and it should be a one-time process. (Or at least nearly-one-time: making it annual might be reasonable.)
Why this over angel.co?
As I responded to a sibling comment - there's nothing about eating meat that prevents me from also eating various vegetarian and vegan dishes. I've had some pho with tofu, and it was fantastic (if expensive).

There's also milk, and milk product that I would have to give up or accept substitutes for.

From what I have heard, the toolchain story is being worked on heavily. There are some legacy reasons why toolchains were designed the way they were (mostly due to the fact that Google essentially only uses one compiler for each language, and certain toolchains were implemented natively instead of as plugins), but the confusing semantics are improving! Maybe give it another shot in 6-12 months.

Of course, citizenship in a charter city would not give citizenship/voting rights in the host country.
That's Blizzard America, of course. If I'm not mistaken, there is technically no Blizzard _inside of_ China. They license their IP, etc..., to a Chinese (CCP approved) company-of-sorts who is then responsible for it's dealings inside China.

But, yes, something fucky is going on with their account management system, which is actively blocking people from disabling their accounts (via blocking account verification attempts, I believe).
It's tempting to believe that you can optimize the system by removing the profit cut, but the world (including here in the US) has a lot of experience with public utilities and this doesn't appear to be the case. You can end up with a publicly owned utility that underinvests, gets lax about safety, and takes "easy" solutions instead of hard ones... but also doesn't have any incentive to cut costs, so power ends up being more expensive than it would even with the profit cut.

There is no perfect system. The social contract for private utilities is that they can run like private corporations and make a few percent profit (the public controls their pricing). With some significant failures, it tends to work. Public utilities fail too - Chernobyl would be of course be the canonical example.

Use of index cards by authors and researchers is pretty much legendary. From some earlier research I've done:

- Carl Linneaus, who largely invented the modern index card. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/06/090616080137.h...

- Numerous library cataloguers, including Melvil Dewey.

- Vladimir Nabokov

- Garrett Hardin (of "Tragedy of the Commons" fame). I've seen his personal collection, which was extensive.

- Herb Caen, "three dot columnist" for the San Francisco. Chronicle.

- John McPhee, The Control of Nature and numerous other books. http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2013/01/14/structure

If the article's thesis is resonant, consider a David Drake novel or two. Rolling Hot comes immediately to mind, but Hammer's Slammers started the series.

Drake served in armored cavalry in Vietnam -- many of his science-fiction books imagine a universe of higher technology that is no less human.

The United States has asked Puerto Rico if they want to be in or out and if they had massively wanted out would have politely negotiated an exit. We gave up the Philippeans a bit later then planned, but there was a war on.
I didn't say anything about Erdogan - however, "two wrongs don't make a right."

And to add - indeed it's not the fault of the Turkish citizens who are against the tyranny, and those are who we need to align with and help support. Likewise, the US needs support from the world to help counter the bad actors we have here. Or we can all just be angry at "everyone" and rage against innocent people - and watch the whole world burn.

What needs changing is the preconceived mindset that working life ends at last century's retirement age. Society still suffers from a scaling misconception.

With better medical technology, people are living longer and healthier lives. The law has to begin acknowledging that.
> Their position is to negotiate another deal (if possible) and put it to a public vote, and put the existing deal to a vote if not.

Yes, but even this very unclear proposition is a recent invention (last 3 months IIRC). Before that they had nothing. For 2+ years.

> Unfortunately it isn't possible to make promises about what will be possible to negotiate with the EU.

True enough -- to a point. But he could say what the general outline of the UK's goals in the negotiations will be and how the strategy/objectives/redlines will differ from TM's and Boris's.

At this point without specifics, we can all be forgiven for assuming it is more unicorn horns and pixie dust. Does "I'm going to go to Brussels and get a deal, a great deal" sound at all familiar by now? I am surprised anyone buys it at this point.

He cannot say for certain how the EU will respond to any proposal, although honestly Barnier has been crystal clear about what is required of the UK and what the options are.

And does Corbyn even know the difference between the Single Market and Customs Union? I have seen no indication that he does.

> Unfortunately London forgetting that the rest of the country exists

Going for a soft Brexit would be a compromise between the rural areas of England and Wales, who want to leave the EU entirely at any cost, and Scotland and NI (and Gibraltar), who want to remain. I would say it is the strategy that takes most into account the rest of the country in its entirety.

Whether or not such a stance would be to Labour's electoral advantage is anyone's guess. They have apparently concluded it would not be.

In fact the EU has been essentially forcing England to listen to the rest of the country -- NI, specificially. Which is quite ironic.
I was watching a talk on YouTube last night about the end of WW2 with Japan. According to the speaker, one fear was that the emperor would surrender, but the military units individually would refuse to follow the order, meaning the army would have to pacify the country in pieces.

That sounds like modern warfare.

Agree. I've been dealing with Python rules for Bazel at work and the default implementation of re-downloading everything with pip became a real pain real fast. Decided to generate the third party py_library with a separate tool instead and much happier for it. As an aside for those looking to start with Bazel, it's worth checking out the BazelBuild Slack -- https://slack.bazel.build/
Same, but I think it's in part because I'm baseline underweight (and have a hard time keeping the weight up), and so it only takes a couple meals of chicken and veggies before my muscles literally eat themselves.

I can't eat an entire pizza in one sitting and a single big meal usually means I won't eat for the next 18 hours, so what I usually do is have small portions of fatty/caloric food. A single cheeseburger or pizza slice. Half a cookie. Ice cream, but the smallest serving. Those feel much better than a pound of chicken, and as an added bonus, I'm not feeling nauseous at the end of the meal.
If only society as a collective thought this way perhaps we could remove the PC gone wild stuff and get back to unemotional laws.

Big example is a hate crime. Making someones opinion or feelings criminal is insanity.
It's not trivial to enforce a maritime border. What do you do if people come on boats? You can pick them up from the boats, but Turkey won't take them back. What then?
Calling it skill is one option, but is a very ideologically colored one. Ideally, yes skill and hard work would lead to money as a reward and as a way to promote the most skilled to powerful positions so they can use those skills to improve the common good.

1) In my opinion, on an everyday scale of richness, the most important causal factor is family background, including inheritance. Would you support abolishing all forms of inheritance? Then skill could develop on an even, level playing field. For some reason the same people who say the rich are rich because they are skilled and work hard, are the same people who really want to keep the system of inheritance intact.

2) On the billionaire level of richness it is mostly luck, out of a strictly limited pool of potential candidates.
I have a good-faith question for you.

Your account is 6 days old. Your account's activity is 100% directed towards China-related threads and your comments take on a CCP angle.

Dyson cancels electric car project
"The more you can punish people who are broken socially the more they learn"

Punishing a kid is not going to help them get over the fact that their mom abuses them or they don't have a dad or that they are not safe in their neighborhood, etc.

Punishment is good, but it can further traumatize or ingrain a kid into their bad behavior. Speaking from personal experience, I remember in elementary school I got very harshly punished and shamed for bullying a kid in my class. After that year I lost almost all my friends, and I was honestly traumatized. I still don't have many or any friends if I am being honest, and I think the situation would have been a lot different if they sat me down and talked to me instead of making me feel like a criminal.

Punishment does not really work to curb bullying, and often does more harm than good. Like your not going to have violent bullying for the most part, but you can't stop other types of bullying with punishment.
As someone else mentioned, he likely hasn't really cured himself of anything. Regardless, he could have just taken lactase and called it a day

It would be interesting to see how build2 achieves these things (hermeticity, cross-building, shared caches). I can’t see anything in the linked documentation that mentions these problems at all.
The business model is outdated, Safari purposefully being a laggard with no alternatives on iOS will eventually bite Apple in the butt, it is just a question of when.

Having written patents and helped build a satellite now in orbit, I wondered about clever technical solutions until I finally concluded what many had long before me: the belief and hope for and implementations of clever technical solutions cause our environmental problems.

Take electric cars. If their greater efficiency makes them a green solution then the Watt steam engine's greater efficiency should have made it one of the greatest sustainability solutions of all time.

On the contrary, it's the poster child of the industrial revolution. Each use used less coal, but overall coal use went up. Increasing efficiency is orthogonal to lowering total waste.

Making a polluting system more efficient pollutes more efficiently. Everyone who isn't an economist can see the results of our world: more efficient than ever and creating more total waste than ever.

Changing a system's goals, say from growth to enjoying what we have and from externalizing costs to stewardship, will change its outcomes.
Can't we just eat both? I eat vegan, vegetarian and meat dishes in moderation, and my health has never been better.
I have the exact same feeling. I used to feel concerned and sad about the destruction of the environment. It takes place at such a rapid pace that we can witness it in our lifetime. There is something depressing about seeing things changing for the worse in a seemingly irreversible manner.

The reality is that this is just very temporary. The next generations of humans won't have it as easy as those of us lucky enough to live in the developed world today. But it's not like the human fate has ever been really appealing. The depressing thought is our own mortality.

That being said, I think it will take more than a few millennia to undo to the recent changes. For one things, exctinct species will not reappear so fast.
That source is over simplifying; some bones and cartlidge are known to continue growing in adults - the jaw and ear lobes for example.
CMake may have a longer history of being used by open source, but Meson has been growing in popularity for some important projects. I definitely prefer Meson to CMake.

Bazel is also a great build system, but yeah, the JRE dependency will obviously make it less desirable for some users. Still, I hope people consider it anyways, because its focus on correctness is pretty great.
I'm not trolling, it's not like overpopulation directly will kill us. Overpopulation is relative to the carrying capacity of an ecosystem. Global warming will reduce the carrying capacity of the world vis a vis human population faster than we can adapt to it (migration, crop changes, etc). The end result is jump discontinuities in populations, which is really just a polite/scientific way of talking of really significant numbers of people starving to death or killing each other over limited food and water resources.

edit: and to be clear, I view this as a problem for us, the current generation, not a future problem. I am personally taking small but real steps to prepare for this, right now.

Not trying to do that. But (unlike C++), you have to understand async to use JavaScript sensibly. If for whatever reason you haven't come across it another language, then you might struggle (esp. if you're coming from C or C++ where the skills required are very different).

I'm not a vegan or vegetarian but your statement is utterly wrong.

We do not need meat. Eating meat is less efficient in production then plant based. Inform your self properly.

And yes we have many countries with people who do not eat meat every day.
