>If everyone switched from large trucks to an even larger amount of small trucks it's possible the problem is made worse.

Right, but isn't the whole premise that the damage is the truck's weight cubed (or ^4)? Splitting large trucks to small trucks only increase wear linearly.

>Why the focus on small trucks as if they're a panacea?

I'm not. It's a hypothetical.

It seems like most of the article is a hit piece against the government officials, rather than news about Google and the potential suit.

Implementing eager-loading with the current philosophy of kiss-orm would be tricky and difficult to use/read. It did not seem a high-priority, so I chose to not implement it for now.

Depending on the ORMs, the definition of eager-loading also varies.

I have seem ORMs doing everything in a single query, returning everything in a single result-set and then de-duplicating everything client-side. This is very messy (and impossible to hack/fix most of the time).

Currently, the way to go would be something like this:

const articles = await articlesRepository.search(sql`
"authorId" IN (${sqlJoin(
users.map(user => user.id),
sql`, `,
)})
`);
// Dispatch and assign the articles in the collection of users

I could consider having a helper method to make this easier, but I am afraid this would be quite difficult to use.

This is actually a really great direction.

Imagine - a software and hardware standard developed for batteries that allows generic installation/communication between the vehicle and the battery pack.

And the realization that EV's may be multi-decade investments (and need to be high quality to last) if the batteries are replaced each decade. Electric motors don't wear down with kms like petrol motors do - how often have you seen luxury cars wrecked where the interiors lasted a lot longer than the driveline (pretty often i.e. BMW Audi)?

Why shouldn't people be able to buy high quality interiors and put new batteries in them.

Your examples have online ads but google operates in the “programmatic” space, Facebook doesn’t. Amazon has a competing product in the programmatic space but it’s not the product you’re thinking of.

Companies in this space: google, the trade desk, Amazon, Verizon, at&t (Xandr), etc.

Keywords to search for are ad exchange, dsp (demand side platform), ssp (supply side platform), dmp (data management platform). Googles products are dv360 and doubleclick bid manager.

Facebook is way way smaller than google, amazon’s advertising unit doesn’t even compare.

This also doesn’t talk about google search. When you advertise online (paid) the three channels are search, social, and programmatic.

I think you can still extract a small amount of useful input from todays media. I usually go with the "inverted axe-grind" metric that upvotes info that goes against an outlet's normal bias. So, anything good CNN says about Trump or anything positive that Fox says about Obama. Those are bad examples as you would wait a while for anything to leak through. Someone needs to point their magic NLP / sentiment thingy at this and automate it. That will give the SEO optimizers something else to work on, anyhow.

> Billions of people now have the expectation that content, utilities, and information can be made accessible to them, for free, by simply allowing ads in their feed.

They can still opt-in; not to mention this is about creepy ad targeting that exposes the user to lots of risk if the targeting data ever leaks (it's a time bomb); advertising per-se isn't banned, it just can't stalk the user.

However this will hopefully open the door for alternative monetization options, like you know, the old-school, boring paper bills that some people might have in their wallet and might be willing to hand over in exchange for a good app, service or product. ;)

I'm pretty suspicious about most claims about cannibinoid percentages on any cannabis flowers. You could take two buds from the same plant and get different percentages depending on what part of the plant you take it from. That same variation exists across every plant in the room, even if they're clones of the same strain.

I would assume any grower going for high pecentages in tests are going to pick the biggest choicest top buds to have tested.

Meanwhile, you buy some of that weed from the store and you may end up with some lower buds that barely got any light, or some that was in the back corner of the room while drying and didn't finish properly, or that bud the workers kept brushing against while it was growing knocking crystals and resin off, or maybe the grower sold it before curing properly to make a quick buck so every seller that ends up with it ends up either curing it themselves in different ways or just not bothering at all and selling it as is. The seller may just sit on it for a while and let it degrade.

All of those factors, and many more, have an affect on the amount of cannibinoids and terpenes in any specific bud you might end up with.

Just because a specific strain or even crop was tested as one thing doesn't mean the weed you actually buy will be that.

Concentrates tend to have less variation within one batch, but that again depends on how their made.

A lot of it in the end is just marketing. Even most strains you buy are likely not what they're sold as. Even if a grower is able to maintain a stable line, over time after successive generations of clones, genetic defects and other undesirable things begin to occur and the grower needs to introduce fresh genetics, thereby changing the original strain.

Cannabis genetics, breeding and growing is a pretty fascinating subject. There's so many factors that go into the final product and just so much variation and endless new discoveries every day.

I'm unsure what you are suggesting here, so I want to be extra clear about the French policy and current state of affairs. As in stands, France has one of the lowest CO2 emissions per capita[0][1].

No one is saying that we should _only_ use nuclear. Not diversifying your energy portfolio is a terrible idea. France is trying to reduce its dependence upon nuclear (which is a good idea) and replace its fossil fuel infrastructure first. This is because renewables are becoming cheaper. The plan is to have a diversification of nuclear + renewables (which is what pro-nuclear advocates are fighting for). Nuclear serves as a baseload and backbone and is supported by renewables to fill the gap.

You will not find pro-nuclear supporters upset with France's decision to reduce their dependence on nuclear. In fact you will often find support. As battery technology gets better and cheaper and as price of renewables continue to fall you will also find that pro-nuclear advocates will cheer this on.

There is a big misconception that many believe people are arguing nuclear vs renewables or arguing that the grid should be _only_ nuclear. What we are arguing for is nuclear + renewables vs renewables + coal + oil + gas. The reason being that _today_ we have the technology to dramatically reduce our carbon emissions with _current_ technologies. We are looking at countries that already have successful models for emissions and saying "hey, we should do something similar to that, since it clearly works." It would be insane to not look at what models are already successful and try to say that the technologies they use are counter productive. The proof is sitting right there, all you have to do is look. We are arguing for models closer to Sweden (since we, the US, have lots of access to hydro) than were are for France's current system (though their goals would also be a good model to consider).

> Supposing you have a directed graph of every human who is willing to publicly vouch for the credibility of some other human, you can run something like PageRank on that to determine the degree to which you should trust some random reporter.

I'm not sure that would work particularly well. People are often subject to Confirmation bias and Authority bias which lead them to put too much credibility on people who say what they want to hear or who hold a position o power.

Your idea would only work in a context where we can trust participants to make accurate judgements of credibility.
I have noticed this in others too -- I never recommend trying pot to other people mainly for this reason.

But it does not affect me in this way. The code I write when stoned compiles just as well as sober code, and I remember everything I read when high just fine.

It enables me to achieve a deeper and longer focus when performing solo tasks that involve a certain level of concentration, than I can do otherwise.

However, it is most definitely detrimental to team orientated or social tasks -- especially to starting them at all.

It is possible that I have conditioned myself to be this way, but it was also the reason I started using it in the first place.

I have no formal education beyond high-school, so it is not too hyperbolic for me to state that nearly everything I have ever taught myself (from coding to hardware design), I have learned while high.

I do not believe I have been handicapping myself but rather the opposite.
It's just to slow the automatic response. One extra step can be enough to go from automatic to task-evaluation.

Your overall comment is spot on, just because designing a good study is hard does not mean we should accept poorly designed studies as good science. Agency risk unaddressed, science should seek to find the solution to a question rather than an answer.

I think we've mostly learned that Marx was right.

You seem to be thinking of Marx from the sort of popular fiction of someone that protests capitalism as some great injustice. Marx's logic, at least in Capital, isn't that Capitalism is a moral evil, or that Capitalists are bad people (in fact he argues pretty clearly that the moral character of individual capitalists is irrelevant).

Marx's central point is that Capitalism is a system filled with internal contradictions that will continually manifest themselves as crises. These crises will continue until the system finally becomes unstable an collapse. Marx's vision of course was that it would collapse into socialism, but his utopia solutions can be viewed quite independently from his theory of capital.

Marx predicted a fairly large portion of our world today: the increasing globalization of capitalism, growing interdependence of labor and capitalist classes, increasing fragility of the labor class, the development of the credit system and financial system to temporarily resolve some of these contradictions.

If there is a good critique of Marx it is that he failed to predict the ecological and environmental damage that capitalism would bring. He failed to fully understand the way that these contradiction work with resource use.

As far as I'm concerned adtech is a cancer on society that is wasting enormous amounts of people's time for dubious value (even if we assume that ads "generate" money to pay for services, how much of that money is wasted by the overheads of the advertising industry/business model itself?) and has corrupted many industries (before advertising and the idea of "engagement", who would intentionally build a world-scale cesspool that uses algorithms to intentionally encourage hatred and misinformation?).

If adtech collapses, a lot of scum will go out of business and will be replaced by something more lean that people would be happy to pay for (a social network can easily operate on $1/month/user). Nothing of value will be lost.

"The design is based on Multi-Application Small Light Water Reactor developed at Oregon State University in the early 2000s. NuScale is a natural circulation light water reactor with the reactor core and helical coil steam generators located in a common reactor vessel in a cylindrical steel containment. The reactor vessel containment module is submerged in water in the reactor building safety related pool, which is also the ultimate heat sink for the reactor. The pool portion of the reactor building is located below grade. The reactor building is designed to uphold 12 SMRs. Each NuScale SMR has a rated thermal output of 160 MWt and electrical output of 50 MWe, yielding a total capacity of 600 MWe for 12 SMRs."
Simple bugs with complex exploits – an analysis of a V8 vulnerability from P0
Economics is a complicated topic (though I wouldn’t use the word “twisted”) that consists of many things and people get a PhD to specialize and understand a small part of it (some type of macro, micro, labor, industrial organization, econometrics, etc).

Making factual errors that economic historians have to point out doesn’t help to demistify it, unfortunately.

I also wouldn’t expect someone who probably wouldn’t be able to pass the Ideological Turing Test to “demistify” the opposite view. Graeber didn’t know much modern economics and can’t adequately engage with the economic literature, he made foolish claims like “ economists still teach their students that the primary economic role of government—many would insist, its only really proper economic role—is to guarantee price stability.”

I am not saying there is nothing to criticize in economics, but to criticize something you need to understand it, so naturally some of the best criticisms of economics come from economists and adjacent professions, and that’s how the field keeps changing and developing. Just like any other academic discipline.
