But why would the government want to provide the loans, when it is already providing a massive subsidy on pricing to guarantee good returns, which should be far more valuable to a buildable technology?

The reason, of course, is that nuclear is not very buildable, and nobody is willing to make a bet, even with very high returns.

If private investors would rather invest in offshore wind, or storage, why should the UK government be less wise with its money?

If the UK is going to take on billion debt for energy infrastructure (an excellent idea in my opinion that would benefit the UK greatly!) it should invest in more sound and reliable sources of energy like renewables, that have a proven track record of being built on time and in budget. And technologies where we learn when we build so that next year's project is even cheaper.
I think "ability to make a payment online" should be in the same category as utilities. Someone having to go cash-only is just as bad as if the power and telephone companies refuse to sell you service. It kind of is a "basic needs" problem.
odd, never really had a problem with it, of all the vim emulations I've found it to be one of the best. It's not fully featured, but none of them are.

I also use vscode-vim.
>What's so insane about this is that it's the Internet... you can literally just go spend an afternoon and create a new forum using some off the shelf forum software and a hosting service.

Depending on which phase the moon is in, you'll hear defenders of hate speech alternate between saying (1) we shouldn't allow any efforts at moderating speech on platforms because it will make no difference,because people can just move to new platforms or create new platforms, or (2) mainstream platforms are de-facto public utilities and it's literal legal free speech that is infringed if they engage in moderation.

I don't know how that contradiction is supposed to be reconciled, or what motivates the adoption of these conflicting views, but I suspect that (1) is motivated by a desire to prevent major platforms from engaging in any moderation because they support the speech that would be moderated and (2) is that arguments about "free speech" need to get around the private platform issue.

I am not confident at all. I am questioning whether the statement of the situation is consistent. You are projecting nastiness because you care about emotional vulnerabilities than disease outcomes.
Those of us older would just see that as an exstension of college life and look at it nostalgically. Sure, I wish I’d taken a gap year, but any millennial trying to survive/move up is going to have to work hard. We didn’t have that time without frugaility, so maybe not realistic for most millennials.

So I guess a stoic with a used Triumph motorcycle, a backpack and a copy of ZAMM would be optimal. A pretty decent set of vacations are only a gastank away in the Bay.
As you mentioned, there are ways to detect some pre-existing illegal content but having a notification mechanism in place can take care of the knowledge part.

Force providers to have a reporting system that feeds back a unique case code that can be quoted as evidence of knowledge.

That's interesting and even as something who doesn't stutter as a condition, I have sometimes when nervous or feeling exposed such as when introducing myself.

I was watching a streamer (Sweet_Anita) talk about her Tourette Syndrome and it was really similar, when she is feeling awkward the tics are frequent and obvious but when she's highly engaged and talking about something she cares about it doesn't present much at all.

Don't agree with the final point though:
> The third and final moral to the story is that SIP and sandboxing are terrible and ought to be abolished.

I don't think they're terrible. But I do think the user should be able to override somehow in all cases. macOS is becoming too much like iOS for my liking too. I like locking things down for security but I really to be able to make exceptions.

As long as things like SIP can still be turned off or much rather: if I can make specific exceptions without turning it off fully, they're a good thing in my book. But when macOS becomes as locked down as an iPhone it's no longer viable as a computing platform for me.
> It sucks that Google doesn't offer better support, but are they really to blame here?

Can't we blame them for shitty support at least? For not providing any explanation at all? For not having an appeal process? For always taking side of the IP Owner? For deleting the channel instead of some other mechanism? For not actually fighting for reasonable IP laws for this kind of video?

I don't know why people come out to defend the shitty actions of a Fortune 50 company and explain why the underdog had it coming.
Not OP. Xiaomi MIUI bundles WPS office, which has a "mobile view" for PDFs. It's far from perfect, but it can single-column some multi-column PDFs. Some PDFs, like restaurant PDFs are downright butchered though.

Thanks for the feedback :)

Good to know you use command pallet, I agree that it's not as fast as keybindings, but in my opinion it's a good way to learn about keybindings for future use -- if I search the same thing on the command pallet often enough, eventually I'll look over and see what the keybinding is.

I agree more touch bar functionality would be nice, though you can add that through extensions if you're really interested.

> No idea how one might offer something like this on devices with no touchbar,

What you describe should almost all be available by default via the F-keys already, which is nice because it works across all keyboards without needing to learn new stuff. I personally have by touch bar show just the F-keys when I'm in VS Code.

That can happen for sure. You should do as little business with your registrar as possible. No hosting, just a domain and a couple DNS records.

Your registrar is unlikely to do any automated patrolling and algorithmically stop doing business with you. Registrars don't have the profit margins to police every domain they own and the tech parse every type of content to decide you should be delisted.

If they do decide that you are too distasteful to do business with, it will likely be a person, responding to a complaint of some kind. That is a significantly lower risk than an automated google sweep or say getting your email turned off because your YouTube channel was tagged by a bot.

I suspect this will be beneficial. We'll see. They could eventually move to a proportional form of approval voting.

> DMCA [...] already handles this. [...] no need [to do] anything beyond handling DMCA notices [...] As long as they handle DMCA notices ...

Alright alright, I get the message, they need to just "handle" DMCA notices. But doesn't "handling" them include taking the content down? Because that was what I was saying.

Edit:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Millennium_Copyright_A...

> [online service providers must] promptly block access to alleged infringing material (or remove such material from their systems) when they receive notification of an infringement claim from a copyright holder or the copyright holder's agent

Taking the material down seems to be within the scope of what you're saying is "all they have to do".

So based on that, citing from your comment now (not Wikipedia):

> it's easier for them to provide a guilty-until-proven-innocent fast-track

Is that not exactly what DMCA is, given the above?
Yes - why don't more people use Vimeo? I know that they have limits on uploads, especially on the free tier, but it's worth paying for because at least they know you're a customer and not a product.

For $900 a year you get 7 TB of video and unlimited live streaming. Yes, YouTube is cheaper (free) and brings a large audience. So you have to balance paying for something that's certain or being at the whim of the market maker.

The top result literally agrees with me. It links to a page talking about dedup.

Extremely underwhelming and further proof that cult of personality is feeding into a mind-boggling P/E ratio.

Electric vehicles are a feature. There is no moat protecting Musk from competition, and GM/Ford/VW have the manufacturing prowess to annihilate his margins in the open market.

It's all about manufacturing, and Tesla is not a world leading manufacturer at all. They've missed countless self-imposed production targets meanwhile the car companies that they're competing against regularly produce anywhere from 1,000% to 10,000% more cars.

What's to stop GM & Ford from adopting electric and dominating Tesla? Nothing, and this is already in motion.

A smooth UI on Tesla's dashboard screens is not a moat.
But counter-point to my own counter-point. That's really no excuse for being so unresponsive to actual users. Scaling to a billion users worldwide, everything a moonshot--this mindset underlies all of their failings.

This is exactly right! Google has taken all the benefits of scale and made many billions of dollars in the process. At the same time, they’ve externalized all of the social costs onto their users. Hard problems like moderation, customer support, anti-fraud have been automated in an opaque fashion that leaves users with little or no recourse when things go wrong.
Alexei Navalny: How his team found Novichok bottle evidence in Tomsk
> Google has nothing to fear here

Viacom still sued Google 10 years ago and dragged them through three court rulings before Google agreed to settle [1]. It didn't matter that early rulings favored YouTube on the matter of DMCA compliance, the content owners will find a way to hurt you and lock you in court. After Google settled the case, they created Content ID and Viacom stopped attacking them.

It frustrates that everyone seems to miss the cause whenever this kind of stuff comes up. Does anyone actually think Google likes being pushed around by copyright holders? Does it make any sense to you for Google to want to create this insanely complex system if all they have to do is handle DMCA notices like they did before Content ID? The content owners have always pushed for something beyond DMCA. YouTube complies because there is something to fear.

Many people didn't want to send email in the 1990s either.

A blockchain is the only technology that allows a simultaneously decentralized and coherent view of what exists on a network along with local control over identity.

I think blockchain sucks in many ways and is a big hassle. We try to hide it as much as possible. It's still the right solution to this problem.
This is the root of the problem.
Sure, we see that with stuff like tractors, lawn mowers, and occasionally motorcycles -- but 16 other states hopped on board with CA when it comes to passenger cars. "49 state cars" were commercially viable for a while, but I'm pretty sure that "34 state cars" don't exist...
More and more I think a good answer for this is something along the lines of "...a shared basic reality of facts." Especially lately in the US it seems like there's a schism in the basic understanding of what's happening with stuff like Coronavirus, effects of systematic racism past and present, climate change, etc.

I think you can do "real" ownership in ATS; or check ownership with a static analysis tool in many languages, including C; and you should be able make a hacky version as a library that dies at runtime in any language with parametric polymorphism and modules. "Modern C++" too, ish.

Which Lisps are you thinking of? CL and Scheme both allow having multiple copies of mutable objects.
Go ahead. Declare war on encryption. Make it weaker. But don't come running to me complaining that your bank balances have been drained because weak encryption allowed hackers to break in and take all your stuff.
I don't own a Tesla, but I hope that you have to unlock your phone to be able to unlock your car? If you left your phone in the bathroom...it should be locked. If it's not locked, then you're going to have bigger issues like someone having access to your e-mail and ability to reset bank passwords, etc...

Additionally, if you can disable your phone key remotely using someone else's phone...technically, a hacker who has phished your credentials can also disable your phone key? Scary.
There is no other method to allow local control over publishing identity combined with a coherent view of a decentralized network.
If I understand your argument, you think that:

(1) there is no way an acquaintance would remember your child's birthday organically,

(2) so if they do remember they have taken actions to remember,

(3) and the reason they took those actions was in order to give the appearance of caring about the relationship between you both.

(4) Furthermore, everybody on the receiving end of this interaction finds it distasteful or offensive, or at least will not think more highly of you because of it.

I think that (some of) these points may hold for some people, but don't hold in general.

1. For whatever reason, there are people who will remember things like this.

2. There are also people who may remember something like this in one situation, but not in general. For example, it just so happens that my wife's brother has the same birthday! We went out for his birthday last night, which prompts me to remember this detail about your child. So when I meet you soonafter, I ask "how did <eldest child> enjoy their birthday?"

3. The important part of this is the 'appearance of caring', I think. Is it weird for a presenter at a workshop to use memorisation techniques to remember the participants names? Is it weird to make flash cards about people you met from a networking event to memorise who they are and what they do? There is a really blurry line between the 'appearance of caring' and 'actually caring' and I'm not sure there is much of a meaningful distinction.

4. I'm part of a large family conversation online. Many of the posts are birthday wishes, often from people you might see once a year. The first post is often from one aunt in particular, who has obviously collated a list of the birthdays for the ~50 people in the chat. No-one thinks this is creepy, and everyone loves that she has gone to the extra effort to remember their birthdays. Posting birthday wishes to an old college acquaintance because facebook reminded you isn't creepy, but also isn't viewed as fondly becuase less effort is required. I think it's reasonable to imagine many people would be flattered that someone went to the trouble to remember personal details.

I hear your point though, and agree that it could be creepy - it really is about understanding your audience, as you say, however I think it is more likely to be appreciated than not.
Pretty much all of what's covered here should be part of a good Algorithm class.

My own instinct (and a careful reading of the itemized list in that repo) tells me you're fudging there - and more than a tad bit.

And that's precisely the point - coding interview have become like russian roulette. A decent chunk of the material is basically trivial, some of it borderline... but a steady portion of it just isn't, and (not too often - but far too often) outlandlishly so. As in, not impossibly, but clearly not reflective of the kind of problem-solving one needs to be able to perform under do-or-die conditions -- and right now, dammit! -- in an actual, real, development job.

The idea is to see how the candidate will break down the problem.

Unfortunately this just isn't true. Perhaps the interviewer thinks, to to himself, that that's what it's about.

But in practice, these almost always end up being pass-or-fail tests. And if you take just a bit too long, or temporarily forget whether a certain datatype is immutable or not, or even take a bit too much time explaining what you're doing rather than furiously typing or writing your knuckles off... or, horror of horrors, you give a perfectly reasonable answer, but not the one the interviewer "likes" ...

Then forget it, you're screwed.
As has already been acknowledged in other comments, this is basically asking to be overturned before 2035. If you really mean it -- i.e. you're not just doing it for some kind of brownie points while never needing to show anything for it -- why not set a much sooner date and be the one that actually implements it?

“factor 5 “Leiden” which is fairly common and usually not an issue, but environmental toxins can trigger it.

I would also add that the word is very different Han 50 years ago. Some things have gotten very cheap, some things have stayed the same price.

So the technology that looked good, theoretically, in 1970 may not have the same outlook in 2020.

In particular, France's failing attempt is the EPR. There have been construction starts at three sites, and all have been massive off schedule. For the three not in China, they have been massively over budget. The build in China was the third to be started, but is the only one completed; planned construction time was 48 months, but it ended up taking twice as long. I don't know how to judge the pricing of construction in China, but if the Western world could do it in 8 years and at the stated cost of $7.5B, it would be a fantastic deal.

What has changed since the last time? I don't know. Maybe different sorts of people go into the same jobs. Maybe executive culture is to blame. Maybe engineering culture is to blame. Maybe procurement and construction is to blame. Nobody has provided a solid explanation of X, Y, and Z with concrete examples.

Some will say regulations are different and the cause, but at the same time nobody says that these are unnecessary regulations, or that there's a smarter path that would make them cheap, it's always just vague accusations without any specific call to action.

The whole point of a bottom type is that it's impossible to actually have an instance of it. It implements everything in a principle-of-explosion sort of way.
Two days ago I restored a customer's data from backup because they typed "ALL" and hit OK on a dialog that said "This will change ALL of your things, type ALL to confirm". This dialog only pops up if N > 100, and normally makes you type the number (ALL is a special case). I just do not know how to make this more idiotproof short of making them fax in the request.

No matter what you think is sane, some insane person will prove you wrong. In this case, tiredness + ESL = bad reading comprehension. It's going to happen.

I think you misunderstood the point there. That $25k gas vehicle would be much cheaper without its required safety features. We are fine with the government mandating an increase in price in order to guarantee safety features. It isn't that much of a stretch to have them mandating an increase in price in order to guarantee zero emissions.
