The other sad conclusion to derive from this is that the "improvements to urban planning" bit is largely not happening, despite generally broad bipartisan support.

It signals to me that people like complaining about things, but do not participate in politics in any productive fashion. Right now it's just team sports, and most people can not name the candidate they are voting for, outside of the presidential election, until they read it off the ballot.
if you're relying on that map, it's an old one not current with the text in the article actually, victoria and nsw moved only 1.5 m in it, less than average and certainly less than the areas that moved the most, which are parts of the northern territory and western australia.

that map was produced a few years ago, when gda2020 was defined. since then, victoria and nsw have moved about another 14-21 cm, hence the 1.8 m figure. i think there's a little padding included too to account for future drift.

as to the question of if these two states alone jumped, yes, they would have, if you have a datasink that collects official maps and collates them. roads that align on the ground might not meet on your map, since victorian data is gda2020 and south australia is gda94.

how do you deal with that in real life? it's a real concern to real people, and it is not clickbaity to report it. the article did a good job of explaining how it matters to a normal person, but not a good job of explaining why it matters. that is the correct criticism.
They technically use the term constitutive model development. The math is similar to machine learning.

Typically we know the basics of the physics, i.e. conservation of energy, momentum and angular momentum which set up the equations. But there a number of constitutive laws which relate parameters between these are "machine learned" but in generally, they are typically linear relations.

This is pretty awesome, I've been migrating from C# and NodeJS back to PHP and it's awesome. Want to know why?

- Everything is either built-in or can be enabled from an OFFICIAL repository (like functions for bc,xml,etc). No more trusting sketchy npm packages or having to pull in a ton of dependencies that might stop working some day.

- It's so fast and elegant to consume a (SOAP or REST) webservice. Visual Studio insists on creating tons of files, obscure web.config settings and other misc. stuff. PHP handles this in a couple of lines.

- Development feels natural, every file can be a single class if you want and there are plenty of highly matured frameworks available.

I estimate I've slashed development time in half compared to C#, less bugs and less security issues (verified through two independent code auditors). Even large projects are easier to work on in PHP compared to C#

"undefined" in this context means that the JSON object has had the relevant key omitted rather than explicitly set to null. This is valid JSON (it just so happens that JavaScript handles this scenario by returning "undefined" as with all undefined variables).
The fact that a database is not fully normalized is not a sign that it's flawed. In fact, there are cases where some tables being fully denormalized makes sense (although that's less common in my experience).

Not a good title when the "science is settled"
The author addresses this point. Giving a single number may indeed be "harsh" in some occasions. His suggestion is to instead use a range, which makes you seem more reasonable and won't put the other person on the defensive. I actually did use a range, forgot to mention that in my original comment.

For example, you can phrase it as "At top places like $ExampleOne, $ExampleTwo, people in my position earn between $X+80%, X+100%". You then go from there. You can also lower the start of the range or increase the end of the range, make that gap wider. Every employer will go to the initial range given and try to bring you down on it because of "excuses". you are allowed to go down up to 3 times by 10-15%, with the "say no without saying no" technique. At the end, you give the non-round number (e.g 134,567$ per year) which gives the impression you put some thought into it.

Another thing he mentioned is that money is not everything. Ask for more days or perks. If they can't meet you on those they might instead bump your salary.

It's also about putting in a bit of theatrics. For example, when I gave my final number for my salary I paused and said "give me a moment" and scribbled something on a piece of paper. After that I said my non-round number. It worked.

No technique is fool-proof. All it takes though is for it to work most of the time.
IMHO paying for password storage solutions is the best way to get security. A robust solution will need updates, fixes, and improvements. The team building those will be paid somehow. Paying customers assure that ad networks and other nefarious actors cannot incentivize weak security practices.

Sure. We could all evangelize some esoteric command line FOSS system, but the general public NEEDS secure password management

"plus it has gravity much closer to Earth than what the moon has ..."

But still, I believe, only 1/3 of the gravity that the Earth has.

This is the insurmountable problem with human habitation of Mars - we would need to become, in many ways, a different species in order to withstand the very greatly reduced gravity - and humans, as we know them, would succumb to all manner of disease and physical maladies until that transition (millenia ?) took place.

Any discussion of colonizing Mars that does not discuss gravity, front and center, is just silly.
Welcome to our blog: how it was made
You are pretty much describing the end-game scenario I had in mind: the use cases where CO2 capture would be hard or impossible are mostly the same as the use cases where direct use of H2 (without methanization or even further synfuel steps) is prohibitive. Mobile (mostly aviation) and decentralized (upgrading distribution networks for H2 capability down to individual kitchen gas stove seems almost as unlikely as upgrading the
stoves to capture).

A post-fossil energy economy that combines H2 (where feasible) with methane (where necessary) won't see much if any of the methane's carbon captured. In a post-fossil economy CO2 sufficiently concentrated for methanization could easily be a limiting factor. Photosynthesis is the only scalable way to concentrate carbon from an atmosphere where CO2 is measured in hundreds of PPM, so all the post-fossil methane has to come either directly from biological processes or from biomass burning capture + H2.

> When I'm building web apps at home though, like I always do at work, how much of it do I write unit tests for? Zero. I can't quantify why. I just know intrinsically that they're useless and it's a waste of time.

Serious, not-loaded question for you BigJono:

At work, do you (or your team) primarily write unit tests or integration tests?

Until my current job, I spent the first 5 years of my career writing unit tests in OOP systems where I injected mocks of dependencies. I realized in hindsight that these are basically useless. You end up proving very little about the code.

At my current position, we do primarily integration tests. (Have a test DB, essentially run code "end to end" minus the HTML UI.) These tests are _very_ helpful. Have stopped me from creating bugs dozens to hundreds of times. (Over a few years.) Same with other co-workers.

The standard makes sense if you go back to the theoretical basis of SQL. It seems somewhat counter-intuitive only when you think of NULL as a value you set in a cell.

When it's the result of a relational operation (such as a LEFT JOIN) however, the default makes sense while considering NULLs as equal to each other is typically not useful.
Again, that's the way that science tends to operate - a la Kuhn and his Structure of Scientific Revolutions. You have some novel research that seems to contradict well-established consenus. It comes under close scrutiny, because science tends to be conservative. If after giving it a good kicking, its clear that the old consensus is wrong, science takes the wrecking ball to it. But it prefers not to get the wrecking ball out of it can help it.

Uncertainty and exponential growth.

China went from <300 confirmed cases to 17k in two weeks. The actual number is probably 3-5x bigger as only a % of total cases are confirmed. And that's in spite of China taking very hardline measures including a travel ban affecting 50m people. Countries like the US probably can't take those kinds of strict measures.

The world is so interconnected now that once a virus like this gets a small foothold, it's very, very hard to contain. And it's unlikely there were be any vaccine for it for at least 12-18 months.

That means there's a good chance this turns into a world-wide epidemic that will kill millions or more over the next year. Even with it's relatively low death rate (1-2%), if it ends up infecting 100s of millions of people, that's millions dead.

If only password managers were consistent across all devices and apps. But I think is by far the most broken experience in any cross-platform use case.

Since I’m an Apple user I would love to use their keychain but if I want that consistency in my browser I need to use Safari and I prefer Chrome.

If I was an Android user I guess I would get the Chrome keychain by default in my android device, but not making that switch just for a password manager.

I also have 1Password at work and personal 1Password but I don’t use it anymore because I have found that is pretty easy to save passwords to my work vault which apparently will be completely lost if I ever separate from my company.

So now I’m forced to consider something like Dashlane to get the cross environment experience but then again it will probably be very broken.

Basically passwords are the most terribly user experience that you need to deal with.

It’s like having to go and do your necessities before the toilet existed. It probably was wildly uncomfortable and inconvenient.

Someone needs to invent what’s toilets are to shit, because the password experience is just that shitty.

> The latency kills all the fun.

I've found that while it changes the constraints on what is fun, some fun is still possible, and the ability to preserve state across devices/locations sometimes offsets the 'loss of fun'

e.g. coding / light 'ops' stuff that is just 'graphical text' is fairly bearable to me in the ~100ms range with good compression/low bandwidth settings, since often you can blindly type some code/commands and take a breath while the UI updates. Video/Graphics/Etc or heavy GUI interactivity starts to get a bit painful.

one clear benefit to cloud is faster in-cloud bandwidth/latency which could make up for the less responsive UI depending on your use case

I've seen a few blog posts discussing the fact that if you give players a degenerate way to win, it is very difficult in our human psychology to deliberately choose a different, more difficult way to win. I'm not sure I've seen the perfect explanation of why, which is probably not something that would be easy to produce and prove anyhow, but I would observe in general that it's hard to believe natural selection would ever select for critters who deliberately do things the harder way when they know there's an easier one, since it's going to be hard to outcompete the ones doing it the easier way. To the extent that we still sometimes succeed at that, I think it needs to be seen as swimming psychologically upstream, not something game designers should be counting their player base to do.
