You could easily just use a different symbol, or pronounce it differently. We think it makes sense the way it is now, but that's only because we've all collectively gotten used to the meaning it has in email addresses. If it had had a different meaning all along then that would make sense to us.

com.gmail.cydeweys doesn't really work because you need some way to distinguish that as an email address and not just a subdomain on com.gmail. So it really does need a different delimiter, like how you need a different delimiter in URLs when it switches from the domain to the path (and then also to the querystring and fragment).
It is not going to be as good out of the box as a native iOS app, but it is is workable with a little bit of effort. Unlike Flutter, react native does not have a fundamental architecture that makes accessibility tricky.
I can’t think of a single instance of a technology where we thought that failure wasn’t an option, were supposed to put everything behind it to succeed and had a 100% clear success.

Dams fail. Rockets fail. Medical devices fail. Do you see any that doesn’t fail, whatever the cause is ?

It’s natural to assume power plant at some point will fail. If we’re fine losing a gigantic living area for half a century each time a plant fails, perhaps you are right. But looking at Fukushima that doesn’t seem like a tradeoff people are fine with.
If you’re German for one, then it’s justified, because Merkel has been shutting down nuclear plants which forced a switch back to more coal.
Right, so I must have used the wrong words “sum type” when I should have said “union type”, but I thought the intended meaning was clear.

It doesn’t necessarily need to be inside an Either wrapper, that is an implementation detail, neither does there need to be a typeclass specifically defined for it. For example the new Dotty dialect of Scala has support for union types as I described them [1]. This is nice because it makes union of types an actual union operator, satisfying actual commutativity (A | B) = (B | A) and idempotence (A | A) = A, which Either does not without some extra explicit isomorphisms.

Yes, excellent one. Especially first 8 season with all the initial actors. It worked great as our family dinner night series.
Yeah .onion addresses fall into the bucket of signing things (which works) and trying to get people to care enough to use it (which usually doesn't outside of extreme niches).

An interesting note on Onion addresses though is the top supercomputer is already at the level to be able to brute force collisions for any onion address in a little over a decade. I expect within about 10 years when this becomes a more imminent problem names will become longer.
So far the largest solar plant in the world is about 1500MW in China. That’s still only a fraction of the largest nuclear facilities in the world. And solar plants only work during the day, to a first approximation (yes, there are storage approaches that sort of work, in some parts of the world.) Overall, most renewables don’t really come all that close to nuclear as far as generation capacity goes...

Generating electricity creates mechanical load on the generators that in turns allows to discharge the energy in generated high pressure steam.

At some point you hit a case where you can't go lower without shutting down completely, and that involves all parts of the system - just spinning up or down a steam turbine can be a harrowing moment as depending on the whole setup there could be an RPM range where the harmonic oscillation might destroy the whole thing (as my grandfather, who was working as engineer on steam turbines for electricity generation, described it: "we would slowly spin the turbine to the critical RPM range, then open the throttle to cross the critical range in as short time as possible, then do slow and steady to the rated RPM")
I think paywalls for journalism are retrograde. The exact people who can benefit from good journalism (the uninformed) are the exact people who won't subscribe. The people who are already in the demographic for the publication and informed are the ones subscribing. This is the inverse of what you'd think you'd want as a journalist.

This is part of the overall news and social media echo-chamber, confirmation-bias inducing content in which the circle of group-think gets tighter and communities begin to think alike.

I understand that advertising models are collapsing and journalism is expensive. I know that subscription models and paywalls might seem to make sense since those who consume content benefit from it.

But I fear that all this will lead to the uninformed staying uninformed, those in group-think still group-thinking, and those that want to hear what they already want to hear continuing to hear those things as the subscriber model caters to the paying community who will vote with their feet if they don't keep hearing what they want to hear.
Identity theft is using personal data to pretend to be the victim, so not relevant here.

What information is legal to handle is complicated, but my understanding is that in the US mostly the leaker is in trouble, whereas journalists can use obtained documents quite freely.
> There are many places where you see code without IDE-like features. One that comes to mind is everything related to git. Web-based git tools like github, git GUIs, command-line git, you name it.

Both git and web-based git+ services like Github are frequently used through deep editor/IDE integrations, so, no, I disagree that “everything related to git” is a good example here.
Without them requiring something like a credit card, it would be fairly easy for somewhat determined "attackers" to get an arbitrary number of free trials. At some point the Guardian (IIRC; may have been some other paper I read from time to time) had some sort of hilarious "we'll use cookies to enforce N free article views per month" policy. Of course this doesn't work well against people who know that they can delete cookies.

It's still true on an institutional level, though.

Paying customers at Google are pin money, AdSense is bread and butter.

If there's a conflict, AdSense wins, period. There's a firmly entrenched culture where user accounts are a cost center, to be managed "at scale", that carries over to paying accounts. That attitude shouldn't carry over, of course; nonetheless, it does, as you recognize in your last paragraph.
Yes, it does. Humans lie and cheat and steal and misrepresent. Contractors use inappropriate materials or cut corners. Regulators demand unreasonable operational constraints because of political pressure. Insurers demand unaffordable costs. Protestors fight construction because of unfounded fears. Political stasis prevents sensible waste management strategies. And so on.

I absolutely think it would be possible to build a safe future on nuclear power - in an ideal world. But the world is very very far from ideal; the impression I get is that that effort which would be required to actually deliver a modern nuclear strategy is unattainable.

Those costs are negligible compared to climate change.

Fukushima every 5 years for next 1000 years, or gradually leaking long term nuclear waste, are several orders of magnitude less harmful for humanity or life on earth than climate change.

I wonder how much software issues like this cause people to unnecessarily throw away perfectly functional hardware and buy new, given that ChromeOS is heavily targeted towards the non-technical and non-computer-literate. I've personally fixed a few systems that I got for free because they were "broken", by simply reinstalling the OS.
I forgot we were demanding to see these. I'll read the comments to see how outraged I should be.
Opening the circuits on a steam turbine without reducing the incoming flow of steam is a bad idea: the 'inductive drag' on the generator is where a large fraction of energy is leaving the system! If you don't do anything the turbine will destroy itself fairly quickly. The next thing you can do is route the steam past the turbine, which will effectively waste some of the thermal energy through the condensors. However in most nuclear power plants these condensers aren't designed to take the full energy output of the reactor, so if you remove all the load from the system you'll need to reduce the reactor's power output, which is not a fast operation to reverse (fossil fuel based power stations will generally be able to react faster in this case).

But long and short is if you interrupt the power going out from a nuclear power station it will not be producing useful power for a while! (it won't damage anything but it'll take some time to get it back up to normal operation).
What I think? I think for countries like Elbonia you can say 'here are your solar panels and batteries, have a nice day'. Can't do that with a nuke plant.

Notable I'm starting to see residential HVAC equipment and EV battery chargers that tie directly to solar panels.
> So far the largest solar plant in the world is about 1500MW in China. That’s still only a fraction of the largest nuclear facilities in the world.

Why is this a problem? If solar plants can be cheap without being big, that's a feature, not a bug.
For reference, I just looked it up and I, a graduate student who makes like $30k a year paid three times that amount last year.
> which is externalized onto regular folks

You appear to be very mistaken about the meaning of "externalized" (this is, of course, the charitable interpretation). Paying for a good or service you yourself consume does not constitute an externality. In fact, the exact opposite is true: if you forces others to pay for your open transportation, that would be an externality.
Thais have been embarrassed by the prince many times, though his father, the king was generally very respected. I don't think most would want all of thailand to be judged on the prince's antics.

"There are 3 main reasons that forced us to file a complaint – We are not suing him for just a
single bad review:

1. He left fabricated stories on his reviews on TripAdvisor and Google that included
xenophobic connotations, accusations of slavery and even comments that could mislead
readers to associate our property with the Coronavirus.

2. He had been posting reviews roughly 1-2 weeks apart with obvious defamatory
intentions. We chose to file a complaint to serve as a deterrent, as we understood he
may continue to write negative reviews week after week for the foreseeable future.

3. Despite our multiple efforts to contact him to resolve this in an amicable way for well
over a month, he chose to ignore us completely. He only replied to our emails, messages
on review sites, etc. once he had been notified of our complaint by the authorities."

Ouch.
You do. US Navy had zero nuclear accidents so far, simply because one Hyman Rickover was able to convince the government that safety overrides everything else.
I mean, if he didn't give them the benefit of the doubt he could be extradited and jailed in a mafia run prison right?

The ones that I find myself working on the most as I move into my 40s: Physical strength and patience. They're tightly coupled but the patience is something that I could use more of in every facet of my life. Along the same line of thought, I find myself practicing listening / being present in conversation frequently.
Do we stress about the risks nuclear power far out of proportion to how safe it is? Yes. Even accounting for the worst accidents, it kills a very low number of people per TWh.

Do we ignore the risks of fossil fuels far out of proportion to how dangerous they are? Also yes. They kill an absurdly high number of people per TWh; by most estimates coal is several hundred times more dangerous than nuclear.

Does that mean nuclear is just a totally great idea? No; the issue with nuclear is cost. Historically it has been quite expensive, but subsidised in opaque ways. In a zero carbon world, it might make sense for baseline generation even if it's expensive; in the world we live in it needs to compete on price. Can it?

The debate about nuclear is never ending, and yet at the same time, seemingly never focused on anything relevant. How many times do we need to go through the same cycle? "But what about Chernobyl?" "But what about deaths due to coal?"
Then why isn't the argument that Germany should build more solar and wind generation? Nuclear plants take decades from start to finish - if they even finish in the West. Vs months to a few years for many renewable projects.
> or to invest in learning another platform

What other platform do you have in mind?
Everyone have their opinions, that's fine, but who cares. It's a waste of time to write out your opinion or discuss them because they are just opinions.
Nuclear is the future indeed, the fusion reactor in the sky supplies all the energy we’ll ever need.
Soviets were corrupt, Japanese were [not familiar with the explanation]. What would be the excuse for the next disaster? What if there are no selfless heroes around next time?

The problem with the current nuclear technology is that one disaster is way too many. The power plants need to fail more gracefully to have the support of the people that are less fascinated by the tech.

When the tsunami hits or experiment goes wrong you should be able the have a huge monetary loss and forget about what happened in a week. Not heroes sacrificing their lives to save the humanity and sarcophagus build with international collaboration. Not a land that is no-go zone for who knows how long.

Yes, nuclear power is fascinating and it’s very neat when it works but it’s too much of a commitment for many people.

And the death per kwh stats are ridiculous. Deaths of terrorist are way lower than most killers. Deaths due to mafia are very low compared to fatty cheese. Deaths due to serial killers are very low compared to kitchen accidents.

To be fair, JS’s dynamic types aren’t solely to blame for this. There are dynamically typed languages that don’t require you to read an entire function body to know if it returns something. But, those are languages without statements, and all functions return something.

Apples to oranges in that comparison. His U.S. companies also pay their own federal and state/city taxes.
I see it completely the other way around coming from the python, dynamically-typed side. For me, statically-typed languages have a benefit on the smaller-side of the scale, but absolutely bomb when the code-base grows. At that point everything is a FooFactory or an IInterface with no help from the IDE anyways because of IOC/DI/attribute reflection magic. And when it's that big, everyone argues over folder, package and inheritance hierarchies and the "right way" to refactor & reuse code, with the inevitable slide into yet another level of inheritance or interfaces. All the while peppered with Singletons, overloads and new abstract virtual base methods with complicated method override rules.

Obviously I exaggerate a bit, but we've all seen various incarnations of a lot of those issues.
This is the first time I have seen nuclear described as more expensive. My understanding was that it was several times cheaper than coal. I could be totally wrong of course.

That's a beautiful poem, thanks for sharing.
Also let's not forget the problem of burnt fuel storage. Burned nuclear fuel will stay radioactive for tens of thousands of years. Unless we plan to offload the cost of storage to future generations - which we actually do now - nuclear power is horribly unprofitable.
You are arguing a point I didn't make. My point was to his statement that 4000 IUs/day were toxic (without stating any basis for that number), while the study I quote claims that the body produces up to 10000 IUs/day – so clearly the toxicity limit is not an unqualified 4000 IUs/day. Perhaps in some people toxicity appears at lower doses while in other people at higher doses.
your effective hourly rate just dropped, yep.
Planning for failure is a core activity in nuclear plant design.

Modern plants could sustain pretty much any failure and no living area would be lost.
No? Where do you see that?

How would you pay for individual articles?

Up-front? (If not, that's called donation.) If so, then what happens if you happen not to enjoy the content?

Will you (users) feel like playing lottery every time you purchase an article? Feel disappointed for the purchase you just made? Or just quit paying on a certain site, for a certain author etc. after reading too many 'bad' (subjectively) articles?

From this standpoint, I understand that subscriptions are for sites - they have editors, policies and a reputation to maintain and you buy into that with a single purchase.

Or rather not, as the article argues... and I argue that per-article micropayments may not be the way out.

So basically, author likes type systems that are aimed around writing correct programs (haskell and rust) dislikes types when they are an implementation detail so the compiler knows how many bytes to reserve to store a variable (e.g. c).

The author didn't really change his mind, he just encountered a totally different type of type system with different goals.

I’ve just had approximately 7 weeks of radiation therapy as post-surgery treatment for a cancer in my neck. 2 grays each treatment (I think) and 33 treatments, 66 grays in total.

My skin in the treatment area held up fine until the last week when it basically gave up, so I’m looking forward to a couple of weeks of applying gel and changing bandages...

So even quite moderate exposures can have significant effects, I can’t imagine what this would be like across my whole body.
For me, one of the most impactful movies in the last decade has been Tomorrowland. The entire movie was about how we relate to the future, and how that relationship creates it. I don't believe optimism is a luxury. We have to hold an image in our head of our ideal future and work to make it.

It's a lot like this pandemic. I read the news, and it conjures images in my head from every pandemic movie ever. Cars abandoned in the street. Trash everywhere. Society reduced to tribalism. Then I go outside to see that the sun is shining and everything appears somewhat normal except people are wearing masks.
Disclaimer: IANAL / I'm Thai but not currently living there.

I can't comment about the guest vs the hotel, but this one is also filed under Section 14(1) in Thailand's Computer-Related Crime Act in addition to Defamation by advertising, so it is another chapter in a long and ongoing story of Section 14(1) abuse, which says:

"Section 14: Whoever commits the following offences shall be liable to an imprisonment [...]: (1) Dishonestly or by deception, entering wholly or partially distorted or false computer data into a computer system in a manner likely to cause damage to the general public; which is not a defamation under the Criminal Code" (unofficial translation)

The original intention for this Section was to be used for _phishing and fraud_ (as it was originally based on Budapest Convention), but it is worded so loosely that it applicable to anything deemed "false information" as long as it is not directly a defamation. This is mainly due to the use of word "false information" instead of "forgery" in the Thai version. This Section (and the whole Section 14) has been used by government to suppress any political differences for a long time, and never once actually be used for phishing or fraud as it was intended.

It also doesn't help that this Section 14(1) actually has higher fine/jail time than the relevant Criminal Code and cannot be withdrawn, unlike the Criminal Code. Group of lawyers at iLaw[1] has been pushing to amend this Act for a long time, but lawmaker only respond to them by making it worse (to the point that it cannot actually be used for phishing or fraud[2]).

Right now the push to amend Section 14(1) kinda stalled, as Thailand has much bigger problem that need to be fixed (including amending the constitution so Army-tied party no longer get automatically elected, of which a signature of 100k Thai people with a hard copy of their National ID card recently been dismissed in favor for "100k" names in Google Forms from the pro-government side).

A useful term to search the web for related to this is 'LCOE' - an acronym for 'levelized cost of energy'.

It's essentially the same notion as 'total cost of ownership' in IT, but in the domain of energy generation.
