I host my stuff more or less like you (also caddy, and docker automatically served by caddy).

Internet is 49€, could be 30 but when I got fiber I gifted myself the max throughput because I could :)

Domain is 2x8€/year

Server was 600€ bought a few years ago.

Power I do not know, never cared to measure but it will be 200€/y, roughly.

So this is not that an expensive hobby.

Then of course comes the maintenance effort, but that part is pure joy
> integrate over the entire space of hypothesis instances, using an infinitesimal weighting in the case of infinite spaces.

Agreed.

However, when you write:

> the evidence makes the uncomputable partial Oracle the most likely hypothesis, since the space of uncomputable partial oracles is much much larger

you seem to argue that a hypothesis is more likely because it represents a larger (indeed infinite) space of sub-hypotheses. Reasoning from the cardinality of a set of hypotheses to a degree of belief in the set would in general seem to be unsound.

> All school children since the mid-1990s have been indoctrinated from birth with a Chinese Communist Party's highly-exaggerated historical narrative called the "century of humiliation"

I suggest reading about the chinese history under european/american colonialism. To call it "Highly-exaggerated" is like saying the holocaust was highly exaggerated. It's absurd and makes it hard to take your comment seriously.

> and the CCP has done more to hold China's development back than western colonialism and the war with Imperial Japan).

That's simply an absurd statement. China, like india, under western colonialism went from being the largest economy in the world to an insignificant one. Now, china is the 2nd largest economy (nominal) and largest economy (PPP).

> This "century of humiliation" mindset is part of what helps justify the China's strategy of large scale technology theft (theft is a core component of the Made In China 2025 industrial strategy).

No. IP theft is justified because that's the history of business. US did it in the 1800s. Japan did it. South Korea did. Israel did it. Everyone does it until they themselves produce IP worth protecting. It's just the natural cycle of development. Go read about the history of trying to steal silk, porcelain, fireworks, etc tech from china. It's simply a natural development.

> Interestingly enough, the CCP promotes its ethno-nationalist ideology far beyond its borders via the United Front Work Department to try and influence everyone, but especially overseas Chinese diaspora communities.

So does israel, germany, japan, korea, turkey, russia, etc. Not only that we have ethno-centric alliances ( Five Eyes ).

> Defeating the CCP's ethno-nationalist agenda and highly-exaggerated historical narratives will be difficult

It will be difficult because their historical narratives are true.

Before colonialism, china and india accounted for more than 50% of the world's GDP for millenia. After colonialism, china and india accounted for 5% of the world GDP.

There certainly are things to worry about when it comes to china, but outlandish lies aren't going to help anyone.
> If you're using a regressive VAT tax to pay for UBI you are not redistributing wealth, you are disproportionately taxing the poor to distribute to themselves (https://www.quora.com/Why-is-value-added-tax-regressive) much of which will be lost as the prices of goods increases to match equilibrium. Amazon won't "pay the tax" it will pass the tax along in the form of higher consumer prices.

A flat value added tax is regressive, but a VAT itself is not inherently regressive. Imagine if we have a VAT on yachts and nothing else, does that disproportionately affect the rich or the poor?

That's why Yang is proposing to exempt basic goods and raise the rate on some luxury items.

Even under a flat 10% VAT paired with the UBI, you would only be worse off if you spend $120,000 yearly on items with a 100% pass through (the IMF's estimates on the average pass through under a VAT are much lower than this).

> If the primary concern is tax evasion, there are many ways to improve this while still maintaining progressive taxation.

You are going to need to specify a better alternative then. Again, a VAT has inherent properties that make it highly auditable and therefore easier to administer. A wealth tax, in comparison, is much more subject to misreporting because it relies on asset valuation.

> And I'm sorry, but even if this would work, I'm still not going to be sold on the idea that the world should be lorded over by a few trillionaires from California.

Do you want wealth redistribution or not?

Yang wants to give individuals legal ownership of their own data and control over how it is used, so I'm not so sure that most of those California billionaires are all that fond of him anyway.

As do I, but given UK politics, it's unlikely to happen.

The fairly recent Psychoactive Substances Act, which makes just about everything illegal (except alcohol, caffeine, nicotine), shows just how progressive drug policy is in the UK.

To me, assembly is one of the things while self studying CS that I felt lacked good support in resources such as this, MOOCs, or just plain explaining it. Usually when I post a topic trying to Demystify the topic I am greeted with an extremely hard to digest read about said topic that is more meant for people Already knowledgeable in the subject.

And I feel assembly should be more a core building skill in a programmers toolbox. So this article is very welcoming for o me.

The article implies that's sort of the worst of all possible worlds here, and I have to agree.
It's just a very bad explanation of general relativity.

General Relativity have some definition of time locally, that is more complicated than the time in Special Relativity.

The problem in Special Relativity is that time is not the same for every observer, because if you are moving the "time" you see is different than the "time" I see. Anyway, you can convert your time to my time or vice versa using some clear small math formulas.

In an abstract setting, it's essentially the same problem that right and left have. Everyone has a different definition, but you can convert them. For time the conversion looks more weird because in usual conditions you can approximate that everyone has the same time and live happily, but it is only an approximation.

In General Relativity the space-time is curved, so it is more difficult to do the conversions. It's more difficult because the math is more difficult and because you must stich the times from different parts, so there are real problems to stich them. If you like bad analogies, it is the same problem that make so difficult to make a good planispheres. Drawing the spherical surface of the Earth in a plane cause problems. https://xkcd.com/977/

In Special/General Relativity, the universe is made of "events", they are like the "points" in a plane but instead of having two coordinates like (x, y) or three like (x, y, z) they have four coordinates like (t, x, y, z). (For technical reasons, you will be happier if you multiply the time by c and use (ct, x, y, z).)

Each point in a plane exist on its own, but it is easier if you add some differentiable structure and consider that the point (7.9999999999, 4.00000001) is "close" to the point (8.0, 4.0). In spacetime you can add a similar structure to the events with four coordinates, but there are some technical details because time is special. But it is not much more surprising than defining the nearby points in a plane. In General Relativity the curvature make everything more complicated, but not mind blowing.

I think the article mix the thermodynamic arrow of time to increase the confusion, but if you want to understand the problem it's better to read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrow_of_time
Average cracking time of Denuvo games is now 75 days
Approaches using IPC/sockets are significantly more complicated than shared-memory parallelism in most programming languages. Sockets at least are also an absurdly wasteful communication mechanism in low-concurrency situations, compared to direct shared memory access.

If you have a simple REST web server, single-thread is simply not a realistic option. The next simplest thing is to do shared memory parallelism, which works perfectly for a few dozens to low hundreds of threads. That already covers a lot of scale for many realistic problems. Moving from that to a distributed system design is a significant jump in implementation complexity, and will likely increase per-request latency with most straight-forward implementations.
That's good, and exactly what Drew is recommending! Your distribution's packagers work terribly hard to make your experience good, and so you should absolutely make use of the fruit of their work!

What you wrote there is 100% absurd. The waste from fission power plants lacks the material properties necessary to form the walls of a fusion plant, and would be nightmarishly difficult to fabricate into anything even if it did.

There has been repeated talk of putting transuranic waste into fusion reactor blankets for destruction or breeding (so called fission-fusion hybrids) but these inherit all the negatives of fission and fusion reactors (the worst of both worlds) without any big advantages to compensate. And this would just be materially passively loaded in blankets, not essential structural elements (that, for one thing, cannot spring any significant leaks without ruining the plasma by allowing coolant into the vacuum vessel.)
"I have never met a Tesla owner on a bus or train in north america. I have met many German BMW/Merc/Porche owners on European trains."

There is so much wrong with drawing conclusions from these experiences, which itself is "a total oversimplification of two very different auto markets" and public transport markets as you yourself have noted, in addition to the fact that Tesla owners are still a very small minority of car owners which is reason enough that you'd be unlikely to meet one on a train.

"I do laugh at the irony of all those Teslas parked at SFO . . . Electric cars in north america are more of a fashion statement than they are in europe."

You seem to be skewing your view of EVs in America toward Tesla owners so that you can skewer Tesla owners.

I really like the priority stuff and dislike the cosmetic, I explain why.

Cosmetics are expensive for mobile hardware as they create a tons of new assets to show to players. GPU can only hold a 4096*4096 spritesheet which correspond basically to 6 different characters with 5 animations each for a 2d game. It's not a lot...
Spritesheet swaping is expensive in CPU time as it makes a new draw call.
So the optimization part of displaying many different assets is an important task I don't want to focus on right now. Additionally I have to design the new assets. It seems to be a late solution when the game is already profitable and monetized... Or when you have 10s of thousands in investment.

Paying for beeing served in priority is quite fair. In our society, time is money and you can pay for bypass queues. It not makes the game a pay to win but a pay to play/not wait. It's fair for everyone.

I don't really like when games make players paying without offering them a significative advantage.

Additionally, for games only based on gameplay it could work. But for game with economy it doesn't click as if you don't have a white market, you will see a black market appear.

I researched Ruby, but the syntax idiosyncrasies of the language made it appear to be created by an amateur. Like weird language constructs to do something, that makes you go, "huh! What kind of random junk is this?"

Some people obviously swear by it, and thus created Ruby on Rails.

Python does have some weird features as well, but I try to steer away from it, and keep my code simple and boring. My primary concern is how efficient the code is executed as it gets translated into machine code.

The cost/benefit ratio of switching to Ruby never quite seemed worth it. So I continue to stick with Python, for applications that are not time execution sensitive. For all others, there's Java, then C++, then C itself.
> You can implement the FizzBuzz kata using the fundamental concepts catamorphism, semigroup and monoid. No if-then-else instructions or pattern matching is required. Instead, you use the string concatenation semigroup to enable resonance between two pulses, and the maybe catamorphism to combine with the list of numbers.

Are you f-ing kidding me? Way to turn people on to Haskell!

Aside from being described in gratuitously obscure language (to the point of self-parody), this solution seems so brittle that it would make me question the taste of someone presenting it. What if the condition for printing fizz or buzz were more complex than just divisible by n=3 or n=5? What if the number sequence is changed to start with a number other than 1? Does the "maybe catamorphism" go out the window?

> For example, the government subsidizes large agribusinesses instead of letting innovators and entrepreneurs find cheaper ways of providing people with food.

The primary subsidy afforded to farmers is effectively assistance in paying insurance premiums. Insurance that exists to keep farms afloat during bad years in an environment that is highly volatile. The intent is not to make food cheaper (although that may happen as a side effect), but rather to ensure there are still farmers around next year to grow the next crop.

I am not sure that really limits the desire of innovators and entrepreneurs to seek out ways to provide cheaper food. I would argue that there is still great incentive to do exactly that. Someone who can successfully do so is in a great position to become the next large agribusiness. Those who have large agribusinesses today do so because they were the innovators and entrepreneurs of the past who figured out how to sharpen their pencil to a finer point than their neighbours.

The insurance system probably limits innovation in finding ways to survive bad years independent of government support, but I'm not sure how much that relates to the particular topic at hand.

> But doctors at Great Ormond Street Hospital attempted an untested "phage therapy", which uses viruses to infect and kill bacteria. Phage-therapy never became mainstream medicine and the field was eclipsed by the discovery of antibiotics, which are much easier to use.

Yes, phage therapy quickly disappeared after antibiotics were discovered. At the time, antibiotics were more convenient as they usually help against a wide range of bacteria while with phages you need to specifically test which phage works best for the strand you want to fight. It takes days with phages vs minutes with antibiotics.

The co-discoverer of phages went to georgia and helped establish phage research at a medical institue [1]. The institute survived through the horrible times of stalin and later it became of strategic importance as the west didn't share antibiotics with the soviet union. Due to the strategic importance, samples had to be sent to the institute from all over the soviet union and now the institute has one of the largest phage collections in the world. It has continued giving phage therapies to patients for decades, up until this day. Definitely not mainstream but don't call it untested!
