While I agree with your math on premise, trying to live this lifestyle is definitely part of what burns people out. This assumes you’re eating all your meals at the office, limiting the hobbies you can pursue, not going on vacations, etc.

Why not take an extra year to do all those things and also be able to engage with your twenties a bit more actively?

I became much happier when I started to abandon frugality to this degree and bought a used car, picked up a few hobbies that cost a few grand a year, planned vacations that actually pushed my boundaries.

You can do this thing called "message franking" to make it more verifiable, if you want.

The downside is, context matters. If you report messages out-of-order or with important context deleted, you can trick investigators into thinking something was said or implied that actually wasn't. It needs to be carefully designed.

(I blog about cryptography, but you should ask a cryptographer if you want to design something like this.)

How does it compare to ISPmail:

mailinabox seems to be a 'magic script' of sorts, which ones can read through, but it seems to wave a wand and things should Just Work. ISPmail appears to be more of a set of instructions of what to run manually to reach the end goal.

How hard is it to understand what mailinabox does after running the script?
If anything, research station orbiting Mercury would make more sense as a base for solar studies. Not to say it's mostly metal and silicates, thus a perfect base for a space shipbuilding.
BTW, since there's not a good place to make this point, I wish more people understood that IFR is not this fixed thing. As a contrived example, if you get medical advancements that lead to half your population living to 200 years old, even the most pathetic common cold virus would appear to have a crazy high IFR.

I live in California, and every year our misguided leaders let wood and dry brush stack up like crazy. Every year wildfires erupt and every year we artificially suppress them. The result is there's a huge pile of fuel just waiting to go up.

Similarly, when you have a minor flu season for a couple years, you get a large population of elderly people that build up and are capable of being taken out by a pathogen like SARS-2.

SARS-2 already, even with the inflated death toll, is weak enough overall that we'd have barely noticed it (in our day-to-day lives) if we'd never knew it existed. But go back a few centuries to when it was rare to have people live past 60, and it would literally be an unnoticeable virus.

Anyway, that's enough rambling for now.

This isn't Rust specific; it's just the definition of parametric polymorphism. Yes, many programmers may give you a slightly incorrect definition, but especially in an article about Haskell, I'd expect a bit more precision.

Which doesn't mean it's terrible to get it wrong, just want to be clear about what Rust does and does not have. It is important because these kinds of definitions either hold or they don't; "sorta kinda mostly parametric" isn't the way folks tend to think about this. Which makes sense, because they're interested in proofs and formal definitions.

Yes, Pierce is great! But the issue is:

> all of their instances behave the same.

This is not true in Rust, as shown in my comment and the other replies. We have accepted APIs that break this property, and we have other language features on the way that break this property.
YMMV depending on the US State you live in. According to State reported fatality rates, for the 4 month period from 3/27 to 7/27 (a typical flu season length according to the CDC) per capita death rates ranged over two orders of magnitude, from 1 Death in 562 for New Jersey to 1 Death in 54457 in Hawaii.

Considering one death in 5000 to be the definition of a bad flu season, again according to the CDC website for the 17-18 US flu season, you can partition the 50 States into five categories:

1. OMG, IT’S the PLAGUE! (1 in 400 to 1 in 1000): New Jersey, New York, Massachusetts and Connecticut.

2. That was WAY worse than a flu. (1 in 1000 to 1 in 2500): Louisiana, Rhode Island, Mississippi, Arizona, Michigan (mostly Detroit), Illinois, Maryland, Pennsylvania (mostly NJ-adjacent counties and Philadelphia), Indiana.

3. That was the worst flu in a long time. (1 in 2500 to 1 in 5000): Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Alabama, Nevada, Iowa, New Mexico (mostly Navajo-adjacent counties), California (Southern more than Northern), Ohio, Virginia, Minnesota (mostly Twin Cities), Colorado, New Hampshire.

4. That definitely was a flu. (1 in 5000 to 1 in 10000): Texas, Arkansas, Tennessee, Missouri (mostly St Louis), North Carolina, Washington State, Kentucky, Oklahoma, Nebraska, South Dakota, Wisconsin, Kansas, North Dakota.

5. What’s everybody bothered about? (less than 1 in 10000): Idaho, West Virginia, Montana, Utah, Oregon, Maine, Vermont, Wyoming, Alaska, Hawaii.

When I say “mostly in a region”, the fatality per capita rates are > 3 times the rate in the rest of the State, sometimes 10 times higher as in Michigan and New Mexico.

Over the last couple months, Louisiana and Rhode Island has joined the plague category and the Southern tier has moved up a notch, but it also has been over four months.

Check the numbers for yourself. There was and is a peculiar avoidance in the media of reporting per capita deaths rates. Government sites are much better about providing usefully formatted data.

“Fun” fact: as late as early May, over 50% of the US fatalities were just in the Boston to DC corridor.

Your point is sound, but don’t ignore the supply side. Manufacturers will produce more electric cars to satisfy the California market, driving down prices which will increase adoption elsewhere.

Yes. 0% sales tax was what it was at. Whereas ICE was at 100%. Norway isn’t a good example of a country to follow because it’s an incredibly wealthy one that uses all its oil money to fund stuff. The people also get paid much more there than in other countries.

In Norway, buying a Tesla was cheaper than buying a Honda Accord. It was also cheaper to maintain and run because you didn’t pay large tolls or what not either. Basically, everyone else was subsidizing electric car owners.

Imagine paying $60k for a Honda Accord, having to pay large tolls, expensive gas, and so forth... and a Tesla isn’t taxed on any of that stuff. You’d get the Tesla just because it’s way cheaper!
I agree about not shutting down nuclear but I also disagree about it being impossible without it (see: https://model.energy/ ) as well as disagree about "very few climate change activists support it."

It's supported by the official 2020 Democratic Party platform: https://www.forbes.com/sites/robertbryce/2020/08/23/after-48...

Renewables (as well as storage) have reduced in cost (and continue to reduce in cost) much faster than has been expected by groups like the EIA.gov. While I fully support nuclear of all sorts, it's likely not to have a massive impact beyond the ~19% of electricity it provides today. It just takes too long to build, and proving a new design that'd be faster to build would also take a while, so it'd be supplemental to the energy transition, not the primary power source.

This is much different from 20 years ago when even wind power was still much more expensive than it is today, when off-shore wind was an expensive science project, when solar was literally over 10x (EDIT: more like 20x) the price as well as battery storage. At that point, yeah, I would've agreed nuclear was our only option for a rapid transition.
Why is everything a whataboutist answer to nuclear fans?

Diablo Canyon is over 50 years old. It's not considered a particularly safe design. Stretching a few more years out of it isn't going to make a significant impact, certainly not relative to the auto regulation under discussion.

Daytime load is basically not a problem in California or elsewhere in the US. In fact, load minus solar is already lower at noon than at midnight. [0] This is referred to as the "duck curve".

As such, load shifting should be the opposite of what you suggest - we should be doing things like cooling houses to 60 degrees during the day so that the AC doesn't have to be run in the evening, encouraging people to charge cars during the day and other things like that.

> So our legislation is pretty clear on the matter, Twitter does not have the right to censor you simply because they're a private business while also maintaining liability immunity as a common carrier.

There's a line between removing content and creating/editing content, especially when it's attributed to someone else. When you, publisher, start modifying others' content, it's reasonable that you become liable for the result. If you choose not to publish certain authors, for any reason goes against your acceptable use policies, I don't see an issue. It's off-topic comments on a forum. Political comments on a cooking blog. Etc. You have pretty wide latitude to define what is acceptable on your publishing platform, and that definition shouldn't have to be fixed throughout time.

Twitter is not a common carrier. Social media is not a public utility. They are publishers.

Really? Sweden looks great. South Dakota looks great. Not sure what data you're looking at.

We've been locked down for half a year. Maybe you don't live in California but it's still full draconian lockdown here, and our state guidelines are crafted such that it is literally impossible for us to re-open.

My point about the Trump thing, not to de-rail, is that the Democrats want to "prove him wrong" for "minimizing" the virus, and they seem to think that locking down indefinitely and torching the economy / public health will make it look like Trump's fault and help them win. That's just my theory. But note that the problem here psychologically is far worse than just partisan politics, it's a defect in the way humans evaluate risk and particularly it's a problem with a globally connected world. Social media allows mind viruses to spread like crazy, and COVID-19 is the deadliest mind virus we've ever encountered. As far as the physical SARS-2 virus, it's pretty wimpy for people under the age of 70.
No. What? This is entirely about law enforcement. If you want to design your system to that the only external viewers are police then w/e — that’s up to you.

What the parent is saying is that you can’t use “the system is designed so that nobody can access it” as an excuse for why law enforcement can’t access it.

Absentee Ballots without an ID have been a thing forever.

We also don’t all go grocery shopping on the same day and there are more grocery stores than polling places.

IDs are the domains of the states. States especially in the south do everything possible to make it difficult for minorities to get IDs.

Also you see things like allowing a gun license to be valid ID (mostly conservatives ) but not student IDs (lean liberal). Even when student IDs are issued by state schools.

This no “both sides” argument.

Thanks. That is an interesting perspective and i agree with a lot of it.

I would point out in the bird example though - the normal way of having a "data model" in wikipedia is through templates (yes it is very definitely mixing view/model/controller in a questionable way). These templates do have the ability to fetch data from wikidata (with some restrictions) and wikidata does store an image for most animal entries.

So its entirely possible to have a template on wikipedia, that just takes a list of species names, and turns that into a pretty table listing the species, a picture, and perhaps other fields as required.

In a lot of ways I think our current metaphors encourage churning through information with no attention to detailed intent.

If you look at what most information workflows in most circumstances do, they involve moving around, organizing and filtering a set of data. This is stuff that can metaphorically be done with pages, books, shelves, bins and labels.

But the actual UI we present avoids such tight spatial skeumorphisms, or corrupts them for implementation convenience. Everything magically resizes and reformats itself, locks into place preventing free movement, disappears from one place and reappears in another, and has multiple labels and identifiers that have magical meaning.

I have much now control over my thoughts and feelings in response to words than I used to. Here, for example, almost ridiculously, I felt a moment of anger that someone who so clearly had missed my point would so confidently respond with examples that are not relevant to it. That lasted a microsecond. I've learned to tell myself a different story. You're not being properly obtuse, your actually have a different set of life experiences and intuitions than I do, and that leads you to interpret my words in a way that I didn't intend. There's nothing to be angry about there.

Even certain routine procedures risk doing this.
Indeed. And if health insurance goes back to excluding pre-existing conditions which is likely to happen post-ACA it's going to leave most people wide open to risk. The other thing that likely would happen in a post-ACA context would be that there will be insurance policies that don't cover various conditions like, say, cancer treatment - it might look like you're getting a fairly decent premium, but you'll need to read the fine print for what's excluded. Yes, Trump says his "plan" will cover pre-existing conditions, but no one has ever seen this wonderful plan that costs less than ACA plans and also covers pre-existing conditions.
While my memory isn't 100% clear, I'm fairly sure I had a mask and I clearly remember the anesthesia person saying I would be out in a few seconds (which is what happened). There were three people doing the procedure, one just on the anesthesia (nurse anesthesist I think), and it was done in a hospital complex. When they woke me up I first thought they must want me to move to a different position before they start but it was done (I don't remember how long it took but it wasn't that quick even though they didn't find any issues). While convenient to not feel any pain (not even any discomfort that I can recall), it is unsettling to have a hole in my life like that. I can see how those drugs could be misused, although at least I can remember everything before I was out and after I woke up at least as well as I can remember anything (maybe better since I was worried about what they might find). The time I was out didn't feel at all like sleep. And the haze managed to fully clear not long before I went to bed that night so it didn't even help me get to sleep faster :/.

Er, his own claimed credits are on the family/casual side of wargaming, and the piece is largely out of the domain of what wargames (even those that can plausibly be described as simulations rather than themed diversions) generally simulate, and more on the political side. And not only are his facts from historical parallels wrong as covered in a sibling content, but his facts on the current political situation are wrong (and his speculative predictions on them are specious.) In more detail:

> If they have that majority before then, it doesn’t matter who wins the election, because a 6–3 court will kit-bash some reason to hand Trump a second term.

While a partisan intervention by the court is grounds for concern, and certainly one expects that a Trump appointment on the EV of the election will be made with the possibility of an election contest at the top his mind, I don't see a lot of reason to believe Kavanaugh (for his many and deep faults) or Gorsuch (likewise, though to a lesser extent), much less the pre-Trump Republican appointees, are likely to be particularly bad actors here.

I know a lot of liberals will point to Bush v. Gore, but remember there that while the Court was sharply divided on the remedy, the decision that the recount as mandated by the Florida courts was unacceptable was 9-0.

> So the Democrats are threatening that filling Ginsburg’s seat means they will create two to four more seats right after they win the Senate, if that happens.

No, “the Democrats” are not. Sure, there are people who have suggested that, and all kinds of other things, but no group of officeholders has threatened it, or even committed to pushing other Democrats for it.

> They might add D.C. and Puerto Rico as states,

D.C. statehood (or at a minimum equivalent autonomy plus voting representation in Congress, which amounts to the same thing since it already has the electoral votes of a state) has been supported by almost every Democratic Platform since 1972. Anything that increass partisan rancor and reduces incentives to try to acheive bipartisan consensus means Democrat are more likely to push it in the case of a triple (President/Senate/House) win, but it's not really specifically tied to this Supreme Court seat.

Puerto Rico actually has another statehood referendum this November; if statehood wins that will be there in a row. Democrats will be under significant pressure to recognize the referendum if it passes, which it probably will.
or even change the rule of apportionment. Republicans probably should be, too, as the pro-statehood faction includes Puerto Rican Republicans. Again, tje SRNG seat is tangential.

> or even change the rule of apportionment.

That would take a Constitutional Amendment, which a Congressional majority won't get ratified.

More likely (though again tangential to the RBG seat) would be enforcing the disenfranchisement clause of the 14th Amendment
