> allow servers to instruct clients on how to construct appropriate URIs

Right. That would be great, and actually, that's what the commercial services do.

With NWS it goes something like this: Say the user has a lat/long. You fire off an http request for a document that tells you what "quadrant" you are in and the URL for it. You then fire off a request for the quadrant document, that lists the products that are available (and their associated URLs). You then fire another request for the actual product for that quadrant . . .

This is not a real example, but this is basically how it works. Even when you can construct a single URL with the info you need, you still need to make multiple requests to have enough information to build the URL (if that makes sense).

> You can make multiple requests over a single connection.

You mean with some kind of http keep-alive thing? I'm not sure I can do that in these circumstance (with cURL).

(edits for grammar, minor issues of clarity)
Another simple example. I bought a zojirushi water bottle 5 years ago, it is still going strong, still keeps water cold for a hours and hours. I bought another bottle 3 months ago, which is much heavier/sturdier than zojirushi. It sucks (it is so strong that it can be used as a weapon though).
> then they’ll point you to the AOCs, Sanders talking about “make lists, lock them up”

I don't see an equivalancy with "find problem people and lock them up", which inherently implies judicial process, and the other side, with Trump saying:

"After repeatedly being interrupted by protesters at a campaign rally in Miami, Trump warned he’ll “be a little more violent” next time when addressing protesters. “See the first group, I was nice. ‘Oh, take your time.’ The second group, I was pretty nice. The third group, I’ll be a little more violent. And the fourth group, I’ll say get the hell out of here!”"

"Trump told Fox News the next day, “Maybe he should have been roughed up, because it was absolutely disgusting what he was doing. I have a lot of fans, and they were not happy about it. And this was a very obnoxious guy who was a troublemaker who was looking to make trouble.”"

"“If you see somebody getting ready to throw a tomato, knock the crap out of them, would you? Seriously. Just knock the hell out of them. I promise you, I will pay for the legal fees. I promise. There won’t be so much of them because the courts agree with us,” he said."

Yes, there were 3 domestic terrorists (with 2 FBI agents effectively suggesting it...).

My concern is more at the government level - are there any threats from conservative republicans in office?

From the rights perspective, it appears they are concerned about a lot of amendment issues; which seem far larger than the isolated incidents of domestic terrorists.
I don't know what you're talking about. A new Rolex is over $5000 for the cheapest model, which is well outside the mass market price range. Never mind the fact that you can't even buy a new Rolex unless you are on a preferred buyers list. That's the opposite of Mass Market.

Of course, unlike Apple, Rolex makes products that last decades. So older, less collectible models become affordable to people. But the fact that the "mass market" is willing to fight over the heavily used, least desirable of all Rolexes proves its exclusivity and "luxury".
There are a few reasons, but the biggest one is that ceramics and composites also react with the molten salts. One study from 2015 (1) showed that even testing the corrosion resistance of metals was difficult because the type of crucible used had a large effect on the results.

These systems need pumps at a minimum. Sensors (temp, ph, flow rate, chemical composition, etc.) are also very important for prolonged, low maintenance use. These cannot be made of ceramics (that I know of)

The container will also need to safely hold a dense pool of molten salt. The linked $88k test reactor has a capacity of 350 liters, which at 1.94 g/cc is ~680kg/1500lbs of Li2BeF4.

Another important reason is that heat transfer is the whole point of the reactor, and most metal alternatives have poor thermal properties.

Syria had a civil war before significant US involvement, but between being bordered by a completely destabilized Iraq, and the US campaign against Assad means that US involvement made the situation so much worse.

> Seriously, why would you complain about this these days?

Because we have ludicrously fast computers, but they feel slow. I have an period appropriate XP laptop in my office and every time I have to pull it out and use it I'm momentarily shocked by how responsive it is compared to modern OSs. We should be better than this, but our industry sucks at its job and I'm kinda sick of it.

Your monitor takes more than 10 seconds to power on, and you seriously don't think this is ridiculous? What the hell is it doing that could possible be taking that long?
Not sure where you’re getting your info from. Musk and his brother started and sold zip2 for millions, while living a very frugal existence. He used that money to start x.com, which merged with PayPal, sold to eBay. He used that money to start SpaceX and invest in Tesla.

I've had the most success with emacs-plus [1]. It's the most optimized for mac specifically with some good flags that you can make a custom build if there are features you do or don't want.

Yet in most of their categories, they _are_ the top of the line. There often aren't better choices (across some reasonable definition of 'better') available for those who want to pay more. I can't think of a Macbook alternative whose manufacturer is primarily competing on quality.

Speaking personally, I have zero interest in brand except as a marque of quality. But for those who are optimizing for quality over price, Apple is a choice that rarely leads to disappointment.

That's a different proposition to most luxury brands, which primarily target aspiration. A Louis Vuitton handbag may not be a higher-quality handbag, but as I understand it, their consumers are buying it for the logo more than the craftsmanship.
Just FYI in case you care about this sort of stuff, there's a major eBay-like company in South America called MercadoLibre, that is commonly referred to as MeLi or simply Meli as well, and that also has the $MELI stock ticker. It's not a big deal at all but thought you'd like to know about it as it may impact organic discovery or cause a bit of confusion down the line.
https://gspp.berkeley.edu/news/news-center/the-us-can-reach-... ("The US can reach 90 percent clean electricity by 2035, dependably and without increasing consumer bills")

https://www.2035report.com/

https://www.2035report.com/data-explorer/

"The target year of 2035 allows sufficient time for most coal and gas plants to recover their fixed costs, thereby avoiding risk of stranded costs for consumers and investors, if the right policies are in place. Wind, solar, and battery storage can provide the bulk of the 90 percent clean electricity. The report finds that new fossil fuel generators are not needed. Existing gas plants, used infrequently and combined with storage, hydropower, and nuclear power [my note: existing, not new, nuclear], are sufficient to meet demand during periods of extraordinarily low renewable energy generation or exceptionally high electricity demand. Power generation from natural gas plants would drop by 70 percent in 2035 compared to 2019."

That's US centric; Australia is targeting 100 renewables by 2032, using only hydro, renewables, and storage. Let's not say it can't be done while it's being done.

Is it necessary to name the problem if we know a driver of it?
If you say you started a grocery store because you wanted to sell organic food and help people buy organic food, so you are very pleased with how it's went since now 3% of the food you sell is organic, I'm going to wonder about your story, or your evaluation of success. If you are making lots and lots of money selling 3% organic food, but everyone keeps talking about the organic food, I'm going to wonder if you switched to prioritizing making lots and lots of money instead of selling organic food (which you are allowed to do, nobody's going to stop you), and if the organic food is just a story, and if maybe we should stop telling that story like that, and at any rate when telling the history of your endeavor it seems worth mentioning.

Part of their problem is that they don't seem to have a clear definition for hate speech... or at least not one that is public and that their entire user base can understand and accept. And for the same reasons, it's impossible to police using AI. If they really believe they need to censor wrong-think globally, they'll need to hire and train hundreds of thousands of people (at least). And even then they will fail to solve the problem in a way that keeps everyone happy.
Death by old age does not exist, it is just the older you get, the more likely it is that some disease or other will push you over. Only Covid somehow doesn't count. It's OK to die of an heart attack when you are over 80, but not to die from Covid. (It's OK to try to prevent or delay both things).

Yes and no.

First of all, I'm European.

Use of English as a second language, it might surprise you, dropped in the past 10 years, it was spoken by 52% of the population in 2012, now it dropped to 44%.

Not native speakers, English is the fourth language in Europe for number of native speakers, after German, French and Italian (if we don't count Russian, largely first with 120 million native speakers)

Secondly, things can change rapidly.

20 years ago the most studied second language in Italian schools was French.

Thirdly, in Europe countries have spoken to each other for centuries, when I go to Spain I speak Spanish, when I go to France or Belgium I speak French, I can also speak some German.

Of course not perfectly, but we still understand each other better than through English, because of similarities in the languages.

So yes, second language counts, but only when other options are worse (I speak English with Sweds or Dutch - I've been studying Swedish on my own but my progress with the language have been very slow)

In many schools we study more than 1 foreign language.

I studied French in primary and middle school then English and German in high school.

They were regular public schools, far from the best.

It's quite common elsewhere.

My cousins live in Belgium, their kids study French, Flemish and of course Italian in school.

Many Italian researchers, for example, move to Germany and they learn German because it's better to know it when you live there, English is used to bootstrap the social life and at work.

CERN is in Switzerland and even though I believe everyone there speaks English, in Geneva the official language is French, it helps a lot outside of work to learn it, more than English. Move a few Kms and they speak German, go South and they speak Italian and you will still be in small Switzerland.

Where many people are naturally bi or trilingual.

Adding English as a third/fourth it's very easy for them.

Eventually everybody will learn some English, undoubtedly, but it's gonna be foreigners' English, that it's different from proper English and sometimes it's pure nonsense for native speakers and viceversa.
So, what's your conclusion of one day of posting history? Far-Right? Alt-right? Full on Notsee? Transphoooooobe? Paid Russian?

As far as group thinker goes, lol. I'm in the 5% side, against he 95% braying mob who dox and torment people all the time. This used to just be common sense, for instance that you can't medicate children to be the other sex, and now people insist that up is down. I'm saying what I said ten years ago, and barring an actual change in human biology, what I'll be saying in another ten years.

But since you brought up immigration issues, do you expect to see an alt-right person (such as you seem to believe I am) saying that race is not an issue? That immigration shouldn't be stopped? Where does that fit in your categorization? Could you describe what a moderate, liberal, Parisian view would be, such that you could judge mine against it?
You seem pretty fine with accepting the corrupt science to deliver your message over the internet it invented.

You are right, we won’t agree, because you haven’t got a point. What you first replied to and where you’re at now are unrelated positions.

This is a classic “bring them to your level and beat them with experience” situation. You’ve moved the goal posts to climate change now. I’m not taking up that fight.

You’ve basically just said: reason and logic have been corrupted, so we can’t agree in mere reason and logic. You’ll find your position doesn’t take you anywhere nice. But I appreciate the discussion we’ve had up to this point.
I absolutely hate that. I've had AirBNB's tell me to take out the trash and the full gamet before leaving while still charging me $30 to clean. I refused.

I'm relatively ambivalent to a walled garden if and only if there's a (reliable) way to opt out of it. In Android's case, it's not only quite possible to opt out of Google's garden, but arguably rather commonplace (Amazon's "Fire" devices, most custom ROMs by default, etc.). In iOS' case, it's outright impossible.

For 1, I generally recommend whatever Doom is recommending[0], which is currently the tap you mentioned.

For 2, evil is indeed available by default in Doom and works normally with org-mode. For the most part, everything works just like in vim, including splitting panes (windows in emacs), switching tabs if you've enabled them, and so on. So, writing notes in org-mode should essentially be just like writing nodes in any other editor with vim keybindings. You've also got by default nice stuff corresponding to some of the popular vim plugins, including vim-surround and commenting (via `g c <motion>` or selecting a range and then `g c`). There was also this post I saw recently exploring `evil-snipe`, `evil-easymotion`, and a few other plugins available by default that was quite helpful[1]. There are also a number of useful org-mode specific functions available when you're editing an org file behind the "local leader" `spc m`, like ticking off checkboxes (`spc m x`), storing links (`spc m n`) inserting links (`spc m l`), toggling todos, setting priority, scheduling dates, and so on. `TAB` cycles folding of headlines, `shift+TAB` cycles headlines throughout the document.

In general, one of the nicest things about emacs is the ability to introspect everything at runtime. `spc h v` allows you to search for, check (and change) the value of any variable, and you can often do some exploration in the fuzzy finder to figure out what settings are available for whatever editor feature you're using. `spc h k` lets you type a keybinding and gives you the documentation for whatever function it's mapped to. `spc :` or `M-x` opens up a fuzzy finder for all the functions available in the editor. You can search through these to find stuff you might like to do, and see inline which keybinding the function is bound to, if any. `spc h a` searches all functions, variables, etc., in a similar way. `spc h i` opens up an info browser, which is like man pages on steroids. Many emacs plugins have documentation here, as well as many system utilities. Last but not least, the help for Doom itself is quite nice, which you can get to via `spc h d m` (help for doom modules), `spc h d h` (general doom help), and so on.

For org-mode, you can learn a lot of what's available by typing `spc :` and then just reading through all the functions that start with `org-`.

Org is quite unique. I use it daily, and I would feel a bit less anxious if the language was standardized as this would facilitate alternative implementations outside Emacs. Right now, the implementation is the standard and that is a bit messy.

I don't know about any other language that combines a plain text outliner, keywords, tags, timestamps, hyperlinks and tables. These are exceptionally good primitives to implement a myriad of workflows. And I've left out some incredible features I do not use, like literate programming.

Applications like Things or OmniFocus are nice, but they can't adapt to alternative workflows. OmniOutliner was pretty great, though, and motivated some Org features during the GTD craze of late 2000s.
5, 10, 20 years ago I'd say: sure, things aren't great but still better than ever. Now in the last 5 years top courts have been overtaken completely by the ruling party, district attorneys are on political leashes shorter than ever in the last 30 years, state companies are buying up property solely to increase the ruling party's power and give its zealots comfy places to receive inordinate salaries for nothing (like the recent massive newspaper publisher acquisition by the state oil company), all top state officials are openly devoted to pushing the Catholic Church's agenda and to providing the clergy with money and influence, LGBT Poles are demonized by the government just to convince people to vote for the party that will "protect the families" or whatever bullshit, and – the engine behind much of this – the state media apparatus is truly on par with the communist government one's in outright propaganda (it's incredible how similar the language is – Russia Today is subtlety in comparison).
It's not outright authoritarian, but we're well on the way.
Also, Poland is certainly not the 2nd democracy, nowhere near that. It was very early to the concept of constitutions, but that didn't even last a few years until the country was taken apart completely by neighbors for over a century.
>My only issue is that it's become impossible to even talk about your opinions without being given a label. How does anyone grow in this environment?

I've heard this argument often.

What I'm about to say is not directed at you personally but your argument.

Maybe you, general you, are the one who needs to grow. It's possible that your knowledge of the subject is dated, judgement clouded by any number of things, that you underestimate the severity of the problem, that you're conflating a dislike of a person, movement, idea with groups of people, or other things.

I say this because most of the time when people make this comment they follow it up or precede it with some very questionable statements. Generally these inappropriate statements are rooted in ignorance of the topic though sometimes your argument is used in bad faith to justify hateful or discriminatory ideals, speech, and action.

Again, I'm not suggesting anything against you idrios, merely adding my experience with this argument.
Why Is Publishing So White?
It sounded like these tests were only written to validate the backend. Great if that's not the case.

I agree that the backend team should test their own stuff. End to end testing is a poor substitute for that. There may be value, though, in having some (light?) validation of a dependency, ie. the frontend team validating that the backend is still there. I heard the latest SpringOneTour talk refer to this as "enemy testing". Maybe really bad for internal teams, but I can sympathize when the dependency is external and you don't know when to expect changes.
Third! This is such a weird moment in America history. In one side you have a rag-tag group of: classical conservatives, flyover working class white people,cuban-americans, evangelicals and in the other you have hollywood, the media, the tech companies, their employees, and the colleges. This is not a right/left split, not even a liberal/conservative split, this is a power split (on which the regular people are just cannon-fodder soldiers) between old money and new money.
Well, let's go with a Washington elected Republican, that the Republican party refused to cut ties, who published a manifesto that stated:

> the enemy must "surrender on terms" of no abortions, no same-sex marriage, no communism and "must obey Biblical law", then continued: "If they do not yield — kill all males".
> Usually they suspend just fine, but don't resume to a usable state.

Kind of like cryonics then?
