— In the current ones we’re shipping right now, the battery is one of those thin lithium primaries, ~0.45mm. But, in the version that’s coming out, we’re coating the anode and cathode materials on two different substrates and laminating them together on a reel-to-reel process.

— They’re pretty durable, but they are labels (laminated polypropylene and PET) with a very thin layer of polyurethane foam less than 0.3mm. Water resistant: yes, but underwater, probably not. Those that are shipping now aren’t fully hermetically sealed, but the next version will be, as the lamination stack-up forms part of the battery pouch.

— Yes, they are flexible. The only issue we’re having at the moment is their thickness of 0.5mm and dissimilar materials of the stack-up causing some pulling-back of the laminates around really tight radii. But, we think we’ve solved this in the next version, targeting an overall thickness of 0.3mm and different materials.

— The battery level is something that’s included in the beacon message, and is updated once a day.
> "the religious charities don't seem to be solving the problem either"

The parent poster did not say that religious or secular charities could "solve the problem"; nothing can solve the problem. What the parent poster did say is that religious charities are expending far more effort in helping the homeless.

> why aren't there more atheist charities?

Black swan effect? It may just be that the charity and/or atheism isn't reported.

> that makes people help other people so much more?

I think that's reading a lot more into both motivations and actions than is possible from here; or, in other words: I think you're anecdotally on to something - my religious neighbors definitely feel more kind / charitable than my other neighbors - but science would need to be done. For example, perhaps it's not the "religious" part but the "community" part that drives participation in charity efforts. I also wonder about the role that tax exemption plays into all of this.
Interesting, religious peoples in the US account for 77% of the country[1] - I wonder if a lot of religious folks just end up supporting secular charities or if the general understanding that religious donations support the majority of charities is incorrect.

> I never saw closing these questions as lacking in compassion. Often there were plenty of existing questions the posters could've used as reference. It was clearly easier for them to ask another question rather than research.

People like you are why Server Fault sucks. I once asked a simple question about logging in microseconds instead of milliseconds. I received a bunch of condescending responses to RTFM and that I should "hire a developer" to figure it out. Site admins closed the question as being "low effort" or something equally stupid.

I'm a developer with over 20 years experience. I read the whole manual and the product clearly only documented milliseconds. I have thousands of karma points on the main site, but because I never used Server Fault everyone treated me like a newb who's first reaction was running to Server Fault.

Server Fault is filled with arrogant admins who would rather be assholes than help.

I think the main problem is actually the reputation system. People like you get MAD because someone asks a question you can't answer in 5 minutes because then you can't get your karma points so easily. You get MAD because someone else might earn a bunch of karma from "easy" questions you don't want to bother answering.
Got a divorce
As someone who is religious, I think this is a bad approach because it is transactional and tries to force the will of someone unfortunate. Both of those directly oppose the values of my Christian faith (grace and freewill).

But unlike others, I don't agree that religious charities should not do any proselytizing. A genuine religious person believes their doctrine, not just in being a good person like anyone can be. Christians believe there are eternal issues at stake.

The point is that basic services should not be conditional and proselytizing should invitational, not mandatory.

> My understanding is that in some religions, we are living today in the "afterlife" of a previous life, and subject to karma based on what we've done.
If one has bad karma that has put one in an undesirable social position, it's not a stretch that Earth is a hell for those people, and we're supposed to be the demons that make life miserable for them.

Can you name those religions for me. I view everything as deterministic and see the world as either heaven/hell. Although the idea of karma doesn't make sense when understanding determinism. Since everyone is destined to do bad or good depending on the life they're born into.

I'm trying to think of an example where one would "justify-content:space-around" and want the last line to align left. Curious.

My original example would suffice. Given a large number of small charts to be displayed, typically all of the same size, it seems quite reasonable to want them to be evenly distributed and to adapt automatically to use the available horizontal space, but for an incomplete final line to fill from the left under the items in rows above. (Please remember that this is what was meant by aligning to the left in this context; we’re not talking about literally aligning on the left margin without reference to the extra space added by flexbox here.) The alternatives available with the current flexbox behaviour tend to be things like putting a single chart in the centre or putting two charts on the far left and far right with a possibly huge space between them, which inevitably leave the items in the last line looking arbitrarily placed and disconnected from the rows above.

This is not much of an elaboration but the 5+4+4+4 I'm thinking along the lines of changing margin of nth children, or even specifically adjusting the CSS for the fifth child.

But how do you know in advance which n you need? The primary advantage of flexbox in this sort of situation is that your many items will use up the available display width while also being neatly spaced. If you know your exact horizontal sizes in advance, you don’t really need flexbox at all for this kind of layout, since again you can just choose suitable margins and/or padding on your items and then rely on simpler layout tools like inline blocks.

"I remember learning the definition of a stack in college and being a little surprised at “LIFO” behavior. [...] Practically speaking, this seems like a “frenetic” or “unfair” way to do work [...] That’s when you tend to learn that stacks aren’t usually used to track “work-in-progress”."

This tends to happen as a student learning abstractions - you judge them by how they apply to a concrete situation that you cooked up in your head instead of the ones they are actually applied to. One can, if they're not paying attention, accumulate this way loads of weird feelings towards impersonal abstractions.

If the "Cross-region replication" line in the picture is talking about the native S3 cross-region replication (as I assume it is), beware the replication latency in this setup. AWS recently released "replication with an SLA" for S3 [0], but at "99.99% of the objects will be replicated within 15 minutes", it's not a good enough SLA to rely on in setups like this.

Presumably Part 2 of this post will address this limitation, or maybe their product isn't affected by it. (I've never looked into Contentful, though maybe I will now -- blog post purpose achieved?)

I'm also not sure if "active-active" is the best name for this setup, since objects can't be written to the 2nd bucket (replication only goes one direction). Generally I associate "active-active" with "writes can happen anywhere", though maybe I'm wrong?

This can be the case, but if any of the engineers on staff spend a day reading docs it should generally be fixable. A 30mb it should be chunked by the build process in such a way that small updates usually cause cache invalidation for only a few kb worth of files.

If the library you use to build your SPA (React, Vue, etc.) is relatively up to date you should also probably not be sending the whole app over the wire at once to anyone. Routes and components can be set to only load when the user actually attempts to access them inside the SPA, reducing egress significantly.

What part of the comment you're replying to do you classify as an opinion, as opposed to a factual claim?
I think the reason religious organizations have a good hold on running charities is because they have big enough places to host them. I'm guessing the administration task of hosting a charity is a hurdle unless you have big enough buildings already for it and where you know when it will be used compared to nobody using it.

How so if money is created by commercial banks today with a fictional multiplier for bonds (did I get that right?)? I believe money to be an intermediary, but it works because we all believe that it does have an inherent value. At least as long as it is relatively stable for the time frame between earning and spending.

If I cannot use it for any form of saving, we had a primitive market of natural produce for any form of security. It don't think that financial assets are a widespread reality for most market participants.

If there is at least the factor to theoretically restrict the creation of money, what mechanism would replace it? Trust in banks or the currency itself?

Wouldn't that be practically the same? Or asked otherwise: What are the greatest problems with the current banking system?

Hrmm, what is a way to solve the problem of HOMElessness, other than throwing people in jail? Trying to think here, just brainstorming. Here's my list of top solutions to HOMElessness:

1) Zone 90% of the city for detached single-family homes?
2) Mandatory decade-long design review for every new home?
3) Lots of parking lots?
4) Designate every extant building a "historical resource"?

Some combination of those policies should eventually solve the housing crisis, I think.
The title is inaccurate and makes it sound like homeless can't be prosecuted for any small or petty crime. It seems biased in making the ruling seem ridiculous. That is not the case.

The ruling is hardly a huge win for civil liberties. It's pretty narrow and specific. A better title would be:

"States can't jail people for sleeping in public if there's no homeless shelters."

Of course such a title would seem reasonable and normal and wouldn't produce a click-bait news title that stokes the flames of national division.

Most laptops can be charged from 12V auto-style sockets as well.

12V DC is fantastic for a solar setup (vacation cabin, off-grid home, or whatever). You can still have some standard AC outlets using an inverter, but there's no reason to have lights running off of AC -- especially if you have LEDs! Since inverters cause a slow but constant power drain, it makes sense to leave them off most of the time.

Edit: I also wanted to mention the amazing "3-way" fridges, which I was not aware of until looking into solar a few years ago. They can run on AC, DC, and propane, giving you an alternative if the power goes out. The RV world has tons of this stuff, and the appliances usually aren't that much more expensive. Some are even cheaper than regular appliances since they are usually more compact.

> which for Boeing was very important

More important than maintaining its reputation for safe designs, apparently.

This is covered ground. They whys and wherefores of how Boeing ended up ruining its track record are well understood. My point -- my only point -- is that I hope the halt of 737 MAX they are now being made to contemplate ultimately carries over to the rest of the 737 family, and I've seen nothing that dissuades me from that hope.

I'll add that if the Boeing business model (and the airlines etc.) is not viable without forever reworking an obsolescent 50+ year old product then perhaps the thing that really needs rework is the business itself. Keeping dysfunctional bubbles inflated is the source of some of the greatest evils.

There is no constitutional principle of separation of church and state either. The Constitution says: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof." The "separation" concept was manufactured a century after the Bill of Rights was enacted: https://www.heritage.org/political-process/report/the-mythic....

At the time Massachusetts ratified the First Amendment, everyone was required to belong to a church and State tax money was used to support those churches: http://www.statelegalhistory.com/home/1-new-england-legal-hi.... Several New England states had government-supported churches well into the 1800s.

We could do what the Midwest does with their homeless, but in reverse: we buy them bus tickets back to home and let their home states deal with it.

I don't know what the situation is like in SF or Boise, but in LA more than half of the homeless aren't even from California. They're just here because they were given a free bus ticket and told they would get free food and drugs and good weather if they rode all the way to the end.

It seems to me that, given the incredible number of person-years put into making Javascript fast, it's probably approaching its max speed of execution already without modifying the language itself. I'd expect the C/C++ interpreters are already using so many tricks to speed it up that remaining gains would be difficult without adding more information to the language itself (e.g. stricter typing) or modifying the way it works (fewer things represented as objects, more types of collections).

In short, I suspect the actual instructions executed when JS runs on a modern interpreter are already pretty damn close to what a fairly well-optimized JS-to-WASM compiler would provide. If you want more major gains I think you'd have to start looking at locking down (or at least providing the option to lock down, in performance-critical code) the ability of Javascript to do all kinds of wacky stuff at runtime.

Agreed, it would be more interesting if it could dynamically construct the rules and paradigms of the game. It would be like playing a new game every time.
Being able to afford 8 hours of child care for multiple kids every weekday, and a mortgage/rent on a 3br house, is way above what most Americans consider scraping by. Americans who are scraping by use family, friends, and spouses for child care (or just hope for the best), and they live in low-cost housing often in pretty bad neighborhoods with bad schools that are far away. They also have trouble affording health insurance, they often share a single car (if they even have a car), have debt, and aren't saving.
