> Are some of your older relatives not on FB?

Just one right now: my elderly grandfather who's 90-something now and losing his eyesight. He's the one we use NanaGram for. Digital delivery would not really work for him, since he doesn't own a computer.

For relatives that are on FB, that's how they get their photos. They don't request prints too often, but when they do, my wife usually uses Nations Photo Lab.
> Apple already does this with the iPhones and tablets, and unless you find a bootrom exploit good luck running an other OS on the device.

These devices are not general computing devices (according to Apple), so in their mind that's fine. It also makes no difference to the customer since alternatives exist.

The fact that pretty much all other products in the smartphone and tablet market are inferior in terms of hardware, quality and software doesn't matter.

> You also start running into problems where more software and content may require such hardware.

So? If anything, this opens a market for software and hardware that doesn't require it, don't you think? For every Steam and Epic Game Store there's a Good Old Games [1] is what I'm saying. Just another great reason to support and use FOSS, no?

The whole "this costs too much power!" movement is disingenuous, it generally relies upon comparisons to Visa or similar networks. These networks are built upon the suffering of millions (which you can I suppose equate to rampant CO2 production, if you really wanted to) and should not be used at all. Any alternative is better than that.

Then of course there is the whole notion that using a lot of power is in and of itself a big evil, which is ridiculous. Even from an environmental perspective, big industries are by far the biggest offenders. By shifting the perspective of the discourse away from the real offenders towards other "problems", we are doing a disservice to the actual issues.

At this point I'm convinced it's a movement composed primarily of people who don't understand what they're talking about, sprinkled with a light dash of actual malicious actors. This makes sense, as that's a realistic cross-section of the internet at large.
I find it hard to believe that Californians' main reason for gun control is anti-black racism. I'd like to hear some evidence for that claim.
That link talks about people with employer provided health insurance. For those on Medicaid I would not expect them to pay anything out of pocket for pregnancy and birth. Do you have information that says otherwise?

> As we also measure the decision time,

From very much experience in designing and running online interactions, including polls, I can tell you with authority that you cannot trust the decision time of answers online. You don't know that they user didn't look at a quick text message on his phone, or adjust the music volume, or go to the bathroom, or take a call, or had a network issue, or your images didn't load quickly, or the dog didn't bark suspiciously, or a loud C-130 just flew overhead, or any other of a million things. I highly suggest disregarding that feature.

> The price of the asset being mined determines the costs of the energy put in to mine it.

No, you have it backwards. A BTC that is already mined has as much value as a BTC that is yet to be mined, whether now or twenty years in the future.

Again, the fact that we spend energy to get more BTC is just accidental. There is no absolute law that postulates that the cost of energy and price of the asset need to be correlated.

> Decentralization of hashing power will continue to increase as the renewable energy costs continue to lower.

You are talking about spherical cows, I am talking about actual implementation of the system. Renewable energy costs mean jack shit when you have big central entities subsidizing dirty energy and if no one pays for the externalities. Also, it doesn't matter how "clean" a source of energy is. Unless you find a way to break the law of thermodynamics, the best way to be sustainable is to not consume the energy in the first place.

There are already plenty of market incentives for us to be more efficient and produce energy, we don't need to have an artificial component added to this system for it to work.
Respect your work and the kind offer you made on this thread, and I broadly agree with your suggestion, but I was intrigued as to what the Lambda costs would be in relation to their account charges and if under normal circumstances using Lambda would be a bad fit here.

Fathom has a $34/month plan which handles up to 400k pageviews per month. 400k Lambda invocations is 16 cents, if they're doing it efficiently. Transfer pricing seems negligible also at only ~2KB a request.

I'm pleasantly surprised, actually, but of course when someone throws millions of improper requests at you every second.. I guess that's when the game changes ;-)

Well, oil is traded in dollars but not pegged to it. To be pegged to it, there'd have to be a constant oil price but the price floats freely.

SoftBank is something of an aberration caused by the growth of China. Son would have lost all his wealth in the first dotcom bubble but he sprayed so much money around he got in on Alibaba early, and it turned into the Chinese Amazon. Or at least, that's the uncharitable view. The charitable view is that placing a lot of bets on a lot of firms and hoping one gets huge is a perfectly valid strategy to create wealth, and Son reaped the rewards. However, the risk involved is huge. Lots of people lost lots in the dot com bubble because they sprayed money around and did not find that magic lottery ticket.
That is wonderful.
You can also wrap it in something that reacts vehemently with oxygen and wrap that in a thin foil. That may last longer than that capacitor and, I guess, is less easily defeated (does that charge fry the stored bits or only the logic for reading and writing it? How do you defend against Evie carefully drilling into the epoxy until contact with the charge is made?)

A step up is two chemicals that don’t need oxygen (prevents Evie from opening the device in a nitrogen atmosphere). Bonus points if they only explode when depressurized, as then, you can mix them inside the device.

I think techniques like those have been used in safes, but can’t find a link. I did find https://people.kth.se/~msmith/is2500_pdf/Anti-Tamper%20Techn..., which discusses this use case.

It mentions detecting attempts to X-ray the device, and even mentions using explosives (with a remark “this option is not practical for consumer electronics”). I guess that is not a problem in military hardware (if a F-35 falls into enemy hands, destroying its software probably is more important than destroying the plane)
I stopped trusting ethereum after EIP669.

Ethereum used to have a soft cap of 100M coins. They removed the cap.

Ethereum is no Bitcoin. It's more akin to dogecoin/fiat with its infinite money.

I'm guessing that it is this one https://www.electronicdesign.com/technologies/analog/article...

Unfortunately it looks like all the figures are 404 on the article, fortunately IA seems to have them https://web.archive.org/web/20201112004309/https://www.elect...

Edit: Bit of a funny aside; the editor who wrote the subtitle incorrectly identifies the P in PID as "Peripheral" even though the article correctly states it is "Proportional" in the fourth paragraph.

I think other options need to be explored in addition to any new taxes to ameliorate such people. Like massive buy back and replace programs and infrastructure.
Yeah, this one does. Some others on the frontpage don't. Interesting.

If I were to hazard a guess -- it looks like a templating bug. Some template has a period in it.

Interesting! Does not seem related to the time value. I saw one entry that said “15 hours ago” with and without a period. Seems like a bug to me.
Antex irons don't seem to get enough love in my opinion. They are (at least partially, I think) made in the UK and I've always preferred them as the handle/body is much thinner than many of the other available irons which I find a lot easier to use.
That doesn't sound like evidence for the claim. It's like saying that Chevron was behind 9/11 because they gained from the consequences.

Also, it seems weird to think the German generals wouldn't have heard of Liddell Hart - he was a major historian of WWI. Indeed, this article provides evidence that Rommel, for one, had heard of him:

> and in the plot in that moment you don't want to deal with "can these characters start this car".

yet that's always the most implausible part of the story. Even as a kid, I remember asking "are we the only people who take the key out of the car when we leave? everyone we see on TV seems to leave their keys in the car". If character A just took their damn keys with them... movie would have been over 20 minutes earlier!

And... in murder mysteries... or TV sitcoms... if someone just had a working cell phone, the "communication problem" (misunderstanding or missing) that's at the heart of 90% of plots would be removed and the show would be over. Would definitely make the writers have to work harder.
I’ve been to Oslo a couple of times now and both times I was amazed by the quality and cost of public transportation. The busses run frequently and go where you need them to go. There is a train that takes you to the outer areas and the airport. There’s really no excuse for most cities not to follow this model.
what would you know, souprock, about any of the details of that person's life. pull your head in.
IHP has a lot of potential and it's getting better by the day. The way I see it, its weakest point is the documentation: things like changing the default UI framework (bootstrap), integrating react or another frontend framework, giving more complex examples (with foreign keys i.e.), changing the URL style, exposing JSON endpoints, and so on.
I also didn't like the automatic generation of controllers, views, etc that it offers, I found it quite more confusing than just manually writing them out. Maybe this is because I come from Django instead of Rails, but I still wanted to point that out: IHP is full of magic, this is both good and bad.
Yes, that's a fair point. The same concern would apply.

I do consume around three large coffees an average day. I would get a headache from caffeine withdrawal (not a migraine though) so it's been a pretty long time since I've really gone without caffeine.

Couldn't say whether caffeine is negative or positive as it's pretty much always been a component.
Additionally, be sure to check how your script behaves with SPAs and the browser history API. You seem to be binding to the browser history as-is, and might be firing lots of non-page view events.

It's not just a theoretical case, I saw this for many customers with Panelbear. Many JS frameworks use the history API in ways you may not be considering.

That's why I would recommend de-duplicating events on the client-side before sending them to your ingestion pipeline.

But that is DDoS matters aside.
I agree. My point is that having children or not is the wrong argument. Decreasing population growth is much more ethically achievable by decreasing child mortality in developing countries, providing women there with the education to be self-reliant on their own, and providing them with birth control so that they can plan their parenthood.
The body is plastic just like TS-100. I've changed 2 cases on TS-100 already because they crack around the tip socket even without tightening. Only because of that issues this is not interesting.
> Consoles are absolutely general computing devices.

Repeating a false statement doesn't make it true.

A general computation device is a device that manipulates data without detailed, step-by step control by human hand and is designed to be used for many different types of problems.

A gaming console is strictly not designed to be used for many different types problems. It's a piece of hardware designed to run a specific vendor-sanctioned class of video games and in some cases provide limited media playback capabilities.

It uses specially designed hardware for that purpose, which is different in many ways from general computer hardware (specialised SoCs, proprietary storage solutions, etc.).

Sure, it's perfectly possible to use a passenger jet as a demolition device for multi-storey buildings, but that doesn't mean that they're in same device class as demolition equipment. The type of a device derives from its intended use, not potential uses. That's why a nail gun isn't sold as a hunting weapon even though it ticks almost every box of being a firearm.

In other words, you are ignoring (not paying attention, leaving aside) an aspect that should be considered.

(You asked for a good-faith conversation, but after these types of replies it gets hard to take you seriously. The quote "It is hard to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on not understanding it" becomes more and more apt with each response you give.)
Configuring Git for Work
Yet people complain. I don't get it.

I'm quite new to the city myself, but I'm quite surprised by how much people complain about public transit and about cars getting increasingly banned from the city center. I would agree that the train service leaves something to be desired (but then again, I moved here from the train heaven that is Switzerland). But the subway, busses and trams are A+.
The original statement said the activity itself was rare. That it can be mitigated even when it is not rare is not in dispute, I think by anyone. That this is necessary, must always be done and is logical is a case I don't find compelling though.
Still not the same as living in excess, though.

You are justifying Engel's being exploitative to his own workers, while he himself knew it was essentially theft, according to their own theories. What could justify such theft? Well, "entertainment". He didn't choose to send that money to the International to promote systemic change. Nonono, he willingly chose to spend it on his own pleasures to the detriment of the people working for him. At least according to his own theories. So either Engels himself was immoral, or communism doesn't have any moral superiority over capitalism. See, you can choose whether that argument is ad hominem or generally applicable. :D

This is the whole reason they needed a revolution. If communism was truly a superior form of economic organization, then it wouldn't matter if it was applied to whole societies or smaller groups. In other words, a company organized by communist principles would be more competitive than a company organized purely by naked capitalism. You can't get people on board in evolutionary manner, if you yourself can't get organized by these principles. If your own company can't be communist and survive, why would it work on a scale of a whole country or the whole world? This is why they needed it to be violent and irreversible. It's a massive swindle to get power and it was thought out.

It boggles my mind, that people devalue legitimate left thought by staning charlatans. But people also voted for Trump because he is "a man of the people", so I guess I shouldn't be surprised.
I think it's generally cleaner, more elegant and the combining of commands on a line is easier. I love that you can create macros such as:

However, there are things I like in ED/EX such as the regular expressions.
The Ethereum Foundation is a legal entity, and as such they have to implement legal protections to any work they produce, or people will sue them. This is unfortunately how the current legal system works.

The ToS basically says you're not allowed to do illegal things, and they are not liable for any damages caused by using the website. In addition they have some restrictions in place in order to protect users of the website from fraud/phishing and other damage.

Do you think this is unnecessarily oppressive?
Zig did too.
That's probably much more to do with exemptions from the Congestion Charge, and the Ultra Low Emissions Zone.
