Xonsh is a superset of Python, which introduces a lot of complexity for little gain. Brish chooses to use Python metaprogramming abilities to solve the problem within the language itself, and so is a much simpler solution.
Carriers typical undergo a service life extension overhaul (think overhaul the whole ship, stem to stern) in conjunction with refueling. The 46 month figure is for a RCOH (Refueling and Complex OverHaul). Subs can and are refueled much more quickly (and in many cases more often).

What I did on a similar project using a different board was scan all the APs in the area first, get the band of the AP with the strongest signal, then bring up the device AP using that band. I figured the AP with the strongest signal is the closest AP and the one you most likely want to connect to.

New nuclear power plant designs [1] have many intrinsic safety features that largely obviate the old safety concerns that you mention. Anti-nuclear advocates conspicuously ignore these new designs, instead opposing a vision of the nuclear power system that hasn't been current since the 1960s. Argumentum ad Chernobylum just convinces me that the animus against nuclear power comes from aesthetic considerations and not a sober optimization of human welfare against ecological damage.

BMW has seemingly done everything possible in the last few years to stop any justification for actually buying their cars. I was looking at getting one, sat down in it, and concluded other than the engine there wasn’t a single thing about it that was a substantial upgrade from a Honda Civic with an audio upgrade, including interior quality. It’s really buying the badge.

Edit: yes of course there’s better performance parts throughout - I was mostly commenting on the feel of the interior whilst driving the car. And part of that is Honda moving up in quality over the last 5 years. Still, as someone who would like performance it’s really hard to justify paying 2x for something that doesn’t even feel 1.5x.

I have a mid-junior level co-worker who submits PRs that are excessively large. As best I've been able to determine, he's not especially good at managing the dependencies in his code, and he doesn't want to submit a broken PR, so his default is to wait until he gets everything written instead of breaking it down into smaller pieces.
Granted that the desert is effectively ideal for solar panels, and less useful for agriculture.

An interesting application of this technology would be building solar arrays along the edge of advancing deserts, with shade-tolerant plants with the sort of root systems which have been shown to halt and reverse desertification.

It's easier to do good things (such as halting the inexorable spread of the Sahara) if the operation is revenue-positive. Even though this would be more labor and less energy than just putting up a panel farm and calling it a day, it's more of a return on investment than the big old zero you'd get from just planting to try and fix dunes.
On the plus side, it's heartening to learn enough people use non-GMail/Outlook/Yahoo/WhateverSilo email addresses to make such an attack viable :)

That slight colour blockage, or the tint those solar panels have is helpful.

There are two reasons. One, plants grow better under red light. Red light has the highest efficiency for photosynthesis in plants, that why LED grow lights are tuned for certain wavelengths. Plants use blue light to know what
direction to grow.

And for a certain category of tints or dyes that are fluorescent, additional red light.

Luminescent solar collectors have an embedded dye with molecules that fluoresce, that give off even more red light.

I did get this from Wikipedia, 'After McClain was restrained more officers arrived and audio of the conversation records them saying that McClain was "acting crazy", that he was "definitely on something", and that he had attacked them with "incredible, crazy strength" when they tried to restrain him.'

They did not use the words, 'he was on drugs', but there is a strong implication based on the audio that this is what the police were claiming.

Depends on the desert ecosystem.

Most desert ecosystems have a wretched excess of sunlight, and lack moisture.

Solar panels treat both of these: they capture a lot (but by no means all) of the sunlight, and serve as a nice, concentrated condensing surface for dews.

You can see this at a panel farm in dry areas: there's often a nice row of green in front of each panel, precisely where the condensing dew drips off them onto the ground below.
This is a solved problem in many other countries. Instead of proposing some new solution maybe it would be better to copy an existing which has already proven to work.
Hmm...Chernobyl pretty much was the worst case.

And, like Fukushima, the impact of the reaction was much more severe than the impact of the radiation.

[I looked at The WHO reports that were published every decade. Each one downgraded the estimated impact from radiation dramatically, whereas the health impact of the evacuation became more and more apparent].
Numba I think is the perfect tool for numeric code. Much easier to work with than Cython or native modules. You can also use numba to write Cuda functions.

It's poor reasoning to conclude that because some (for example) short men find a mate than all short men can find a mate if only they lower their standards.

If there are more short men than women that are willing to date short men, some short men will still be able to find partners, but not all of them.

More generally speaking, some men have so many unfavorable traits that no female would accept them, because females almost always have more and better options. Those unfortunate individuals are discarded from the gene pool.

I'm not saying that every self-described incel is actually in that set of unfortunate individuals, but this is how sexual selection works in lots of species, including our own.

> Just remember that the greenest kilowatt hour is the kilowatt hour never produced.

Not only it is like saying the safest human is a dead human, it is also wrong. We can easily harvest energy for our human endevours and put a portion of that into “good” use including keeping and even making more things green.

What we are currently having is a game theoretic policy problem, not an inherent law of thermodynamics.
And I don’t think sloganeering will help us overcome that, because appeal to emotions won’t convince China or India to not increase their cheap, non-green energy flow while they are also experiencing their largest economic expansion. (Not saying they are solely responsible of course, but they drive the trend in increase)
> make a greenhouse from it

That would be literally Earth-saving in some places. I know people who heat their greenhouses with wood! Wood, from forests, which are quickly dwindling, and yet it's cheaper than natural gas, so people use this country's forests to keep warm during winter just because it's cheaper.

From my point of view, that's absolutely insane and this country deserves what it gets.

Which is decreased rainfall, increased summer temperatures, landslides, floods (ironically) and crop damage so bad it puts farmers out of business (they're protesting right now).

Then they wonder "why, God, why?" like a bunch of headless chickens. We deserve everything we get. Sorry, I had to get this off my chest.
Someone else linked a beginner type PyQt tutorial, but just FYI the PyQt API is pretty much exactly the same as the C++ API, down to capitalization. I only use PyQt but still use to the official Qt documentation which is for C++. The only issue can be finding which module a class needs to be imported from in PyQt, which usually can be resolved with Google and then later by looking at old code and copying the few lines of import statements you build up.

Wow. "Companies should only accept liability if they make profit" is a very bleak view of the world.

Can politicians be made personally liable for bypassing laws which impose liability on companies who harm citizens? Elections are too late, the harm would already be done.

This would be similar to company officers who bear liability for sufficiently serious crimes, removing some incentives for regulatory capture.
It's also unattractive, which should matter to us.

Much of the distinctive beauty of traditional building in sunny areas comes from the roofs.

Solar tiling, which is still not a mature technology, doesn't add danger: we have to put something on a roof, and if installing solar tile takes extra time, it isn't by much. And it looks good.

Less efficient and more expensive? Sure. But as the meme would have it, it's free real estate. And since we're living through a grotesque failure of robustness on a civilizational scale, let me point out that it's more robust as well, particularly combined with on-site batteries.

An `rm -rf ` always has the potential for some desaster. Especially if you are calling it from bash history via `Ctrl + r` and hit return too fast without editing the argument after `-rf`. Actually the rm command should move files into a `~/.Trash` folder instead of immediately removing them.

It's the technology too, down to the little things like (for example) priming somebody to want to comment on a divisive topic by surfacing those topics to their feed as "Friend commented" edge stories if there's an argument going on.

> If you assume 15 seconds per book at pace, 40 books per shelf, 6 shelves per bookcase, and 30 bookcases in the average store,

Everyone else commenting on the math, but I take issue with the starting assumptions. A bookshelf fits approximately 10 books per foot. A used bookstore, in my experience, tends to have a huge amount of books - shelves to the ceiling (8 shelves high, 5 feet wide). Taking as an example some used bookstores near me, I would estimate a used book store at minimum would have 100 such shelves. 8x5x10=400 books per shelf, x100 = 40000 books. Using your scan time estimate, that gives us 40000x0.25min = 10000 minutes, or 166 hours to scan the isbn (21 days)

It wasn't the US alone. The pressure increased from pretty much all the important trade partners in the west and a lot of the bank secrecy breaking a bit had to do with the Swiss banks really really wanting to do business in those countries, preferably without following their laws. But in the end it was the big banks that gave up on the iron-tight secrecy themselves and pushed for deals before the Swiss government did.

The problem is, by the time we know what the best course of action is, it will be much too late to take that action.

I think the data on vaccines that have been around for decades is clear, but new vaccines are always going to have unknown risks. New diseases also have unknown risks. It's hard to weigh unknown risks and decide what's the best action to take.

You don't need an RPI to do that, the drives have their own SOC and firmware
Watching the way this type of thing's gone with software and computers, once this becomes normalized they'll turn to basic features. Maybe a monthly radio subscription, or better yet, timed listening for your cars stereo, basic packages start at a half hour of listening time a day, only $2.99/month or $1.99/month if you pay for 12 months. This includes the ability to tune in both am and FM stations or plugin an external device using an aux cord. Bluetooth or usb connectivity is only an extra 50¢/month.

From there we could move on to distance packages, We've got a few packages available.

First there's The Commuter package. Up to 100km/day, ideal for those who, unfortunately, still need to drive to work

$50/month

Additional km available at $1.50/km

Then we've got The Weekend Warrior. For the fun loving free spirit that likes to get away for the weekend. You get up to 200km/day usuable between 5pm Friday - 12 am Sunday. Can be added to the commuter plan for those spontaneous getaways.

$50/use

For those heavy drivers, we've got The Cruiser. You get a hefty 500km/week. Ideal for families or just those who like to get behind the wheel.

$100/month + 20¢/km emissions fee

Additional km available for $2.00/km

Finally, we've got the Road Tripper Package. Need to get away somewhere? Just drive across country? Well the road tripper is the package for you. You get a whopping 2000km good for a month's use. Take yourself anywhere with the road tripper package.

$150/use + 50¢/km emissions fee

Additional km available at $5/km

Only valid for use outside local region. Use within 100km of primary residence or work place is subject to a $5/km fee.

I probably agree that jury nullification is a "valid" pushback, based on my ethics and based on my limited understanding of the U.S. Constitution.

With a Raspberry Pi generating random stuff, there's no reason why it can't emulate a drive of infinite capacity.
It's useful to see the pollution numbers on the sensors, but it's also just as interesting to see which sensors have been destroyed and for how long. You can track the fire just by seeing when sensors go offline, if you know where to look.
It's likely not smaller.

But the market for expensive, short term loans, from people who can access and use the internet and/or apps is smaller.

I don't imagine a payday loan customer is thinking about that new financial service option they read about in the paper.

Which increases cost of customer acquisition. Which makes this more of a Palantir market and less of a scalable one.

Square has a much better shot, as pivoting an existing customer relationship seems a much better angle.
I agree hence the quotes. It's nepotism, backroom deals, lobbying and vying for cushy jobs in the industry.
