It's an editor and renderer for Fractal Flames[1] written in C++17 with a UI in Qt/QML. Other software that renders Fractal Flames is e.g. Electric Sheep[2] or Apophysis[3].

It's a project that I've been working on and off for 10 years and it's still not ready… Reimplementing it several times certainly didn't help, but I learned a lot in the process! It's grown from a simple for loop to basically a language interpreter.

Sorry for the lack of README or license, but this is still half-baked. I want to release and open-source it one day though.

Where does that 3-10 m^2 per kW estimate come from? The best I could guess based on my shaky grasp of radiation is to equate internally generated power to total radiated power using the Stefan-Boltzmann Law:

https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=1+kW%2F%28Stefan-Boltz...

Based on that, you need 3-10 m^2 of radiative surface area per kilowatt, but that's assuming your equilibrium temperature is 203 to 275 K (-70 to 2 °C). Assuming I haven't made some basic mistake, couldn't you decide to heat part of your surface to some much higher temperature and radiate most of your internal power out of that part?

I think the other really useful thing is eventually adding a 'paid' version that's more robust - I know lots of corporates struggle with specific product names because they not only need the domain but need to make sure that no competitor or someone in the industry has a similarly named product, so if your solution could also make sure that when it recommended a domain/product name it isn't in use in your industry or with a competitive project already

I'm making an Andon signalling application that can be used to visualize production line problems in a manufacturing company.

Andon is a powerful tool in the lean manufacturing concept, because it highlights problems, raises employee awareness, and encourages responsible persons to solve them quickly.

There are many commercial packages available but they are often very expensive or inflexible. I feel that many companies would greatly benefit from having such a system but don't have it due to the costs involved.
I'm trying to build an open source version that can be configured to many different situations.

You and I probably have different political views and yet we are able to remain civil.

Everyone in my neighborhood, every single neighbor, speaks different languages, has different cultural origins and most are of different races. We don't support the same candidates or policy positions but we do all support and look out for each other.

I guess my point is, politeness even when there are significant disagreements is possible. We need to analyze the communications that do and don't work, find the similarities and patterns and encourage the beneficial ones while discouraging the negative ones.

>if another state isn't going to verify signatures to make sure there are no fraudulent ballots

Because states don't have that right, in the same way France cannot reject an election in the UK. States are independent in this sense.

Next - all this claim of fraud is simply ignorant nonsense. Every state has public records of who voted. Every election lots of govt agencies and research groups sample these to find this claimed fraud ignorant people keep claiming. Trump and co immediately went through these and found no fraud - how do you know this? Because immediately they started releasing names of a few they claimed were fraudulent votes, such as claiming a voter was dead but voted, and in each case the media showed the Trump team the claim was wrong - there was another with the same name, or the voter voted then died, etc. They got these names from looking at the lists of who actually voted and trying to find discrepancies. They could not. They likely even polled people on phones or email or whatever, and again found none. Otherwise they would have reported that statistical sampling shows the claimed outcome does not match statistical samples. This would be proof, easy enough to demonstrate, and irrefutable. But it didn't exist.

So, after team Trump didn't find any fraudulent votes from sampling, which is the correct and the most reliable way to demonstrate fraud, they turned to the smoke and mirrors claims, which you keep repeating.

Now, if you want to continue those claims, why not simply demonstrate fraud from the state voter lists? It's pure math that you can sample these, then poll people you sample, and see if there was fraud.

There was not enough fraud to remote affect the election. This is the proof, and it was tried (and is still being studied by research teams like after each and every election).

As a final point - Trump raised around $200M on the back of his fraud claims, supposedly to help fight legal cases, but the money went in to Trump pockets instead of cases. If he thought there was really fraud, why didn't he use this money for the cases? Because he knew it was a lie, but one that would raise money for him.
Is it? To me it's the same kind or even more symbolic - it just annoys people that it was the "wrong" thinking masses to do it.

If it was done for some other cause, there would be no end of celebratory articles on the same outlets that now condemn it...

The Norwegian title is Min Kamp. Clearly an intentional choice. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Struggle_(Knausgård_novels)
Over the break I started an ambitious project merging many ideas I've had in the last 3 years.
This is the first note:
Synergize Studio

A place where teams can reach their best potential
Dictionary Synergize: combine or coordinate the activity of (two or more agents) to produce a joint effect greater than the sum of their separate effects
Dictionary Studio: a room where an artist, photographer, sculptor, etc. works.

a gym, to train, to improve
Personal Coach, simple, natural, fluid

As I start with the end in mind, I flip the way I usually do personal projects.
I started with the website, and doing happy paths POCs just to add more content to the site.

As I work on the site, 3 main audience came to mind

For individuals
private, you control who can see your data,
Skill tracker
personal development, short term and long term goals
Career development, current role and next steps
organization agnostic, your info moves with you if you change companies
Career path

For teams
Share and get to know your team members
Conflict resolution tools
Trust building
Goals
Norms and processes
Discover the landscape

For leadership,
Inspire
Anonymous Aggregated information,
feedback,
reward,
incentivize
influence.

The site is somewhat mobile friendly, I'm currently working on the teams page

It's a tool for dev journaling. I use it for tracking tasks, marking accomplishments, and to back up my decisions. I have a really poor memory so I do little mind dumps multiple times a day. So it's sort of a log of your day.

It's pretty bare bones right now. You can write logs in markdown, tag them for easy lookup, and mark your favorites. This weekend I'll probably release a new feature for adding task lists to logs. I have the backend finished and have started in the front end implementation.
> MAD basically assures no hot war

Wait, wait, wait.

That's not a fact, and in fact a known piece of propaganda.

First. Even, an all out nuclear exchange in between superpowers, in an unrealistic scenario without counterstrikes, and zero nuclear attrition, a superpower like US, Russia, or China will "only" loose a low single digits of population.

Communist countries not only wouldn't hesitate to do so, but have a history doing that to themselves.

USSR killed at a minimum 10% of its own population with fully intentional punitive starvation. Mao did the same, and Pol Pot have beaten both.

Second. Even after a nuclear exchange, both superpowers would have at least a half of its military functioning, and very, very angry.

Third, after exhausting all nukes, and high-tech weaponry, both countries would proceed to a long, and exhausting conventional war, which will kill way more people than any nukes can.
The thing is correctness should not be viewed as the role of the language alone. You have to look at the whole ecosystem and organizational engineering practices.

Obviously people were writing life-critical code in C or ASM. You wouldn't expect a car manufacturer to write an ECU in the same way a game dev studio writes a game, but C and ASM can accommodate both.

From my experience Haskell seems to make easy things hard. It's the same mistake as a small startup thinking they need to do whatever Google / Facebook / Amazon are doing, when they're operating at one millionth the scale.

EDIT> By not focusing on correctness as the role of the language alone, you have a smooth path from quickly iterating in a non-safety-critical environment to whatever level of safety you need. In engineering safety is empirical, anyway. You don't just build a system and then assume it will work absent tests, so the idea of getting the code perfect is a bit of a red herring. You're going to have to test it rigorously anyway before anyone will get on your airplane.
Pretty much my experience with the Wii-U. It was so underwhelming and the portable stuff didn't deliver. They fixed all of that with the switch.

First Google hit for “Apple contact number Canada” is an ad for a scam
My elderly father was was having an issue with his iPad, and decided to try contacting Apple for support. On another device he did a Google search for "apple contact number canada". The first hit is an ad for a scam firm with a link to consultnow546.8b.io. The site provided a phone number 1-888-308-4423 which a quick search turned up on scammer.info.

If I do the same search on my own account, the results returned are the actual contact number for Apple. Any idea why he is getting this search result instead of the correct phone number I get when performing the same search? It's kind of scary that non-technically savvy people are getting this kind of result for a fairly innocuous search. Thoughts? This is the sort of thing that I wish I could call Google support and get them to remove the content for.
If the only thing being removed were <div> tags, which don't have structural or semantic meaning, it would probably be just as easy to parse for screen readers and robots.

Two problems I see:

1. Where you have a heading you may want it and its associated content wrapped in a <section>. Where you have a separated paragraph you really do probably want a <p>.

So these newlines aren't always just replacing <div>s. The page has no structure except what can be derived from headings.

2. Wrapping everything in a <code> tag seems like it could cause issues. It would probably be better to use <main> and apply the clever one line of CSS mentioned in the post.

If breaking a treaty is in best interest and situation permits it, it will probably get broken. Annexing Canada is not very practical at this point is it? Breaking a bunch of treaties made with Native Americans, sure why not.

If receiving is more important than sending, as in, you have your own email with say gmail.com, you can use email forwarding services to forward email to your domain to your personal gmail. Many hosting providers have this functionality built-in such as namecheap/godaddy. To send out email from your own domain, you can configure "send email as" in your gmail, as in gmail will send out email via google smtp server, but setting the FROM header to your own domain. This means it's essentially free to send/receiving email from/to your domain.

Full disclosure: I run https://hanami.run , an email forwarding service which allow you to add 3 domains, unlimited alias(mailbox) catch all. And If you enable Log Mail(Disable by default), you can read email right in our website.

Thanks for your reply. Let me start by saying that I agree the numbers would look completely different if it weren't for the Electoral College. That is because the Republican platform has consistently failed to win over a majority of Americans: absent the EC, the Republican Party would have to recalibrate its platform in order to remain competitive. This feedback mechanism is essential to a functioning democracy, and it's currently broken, because Republicans still have a decent shot at winning nationally thanks to the bias in the EC.

With respect to your argument that the EC actually overrepresents swing states, you may be correct. However, the EC bias clearly favors Republicans over Democrats. In 2020, that bias was 3.9% in favor of Republicans, although it varies from election to election[0]. When the size of the bias exceeds the margin of victory for the winner of the popular vote, the popular vote loser takes the EC, as in 2016.

Furthermore, you didn't actually address the most antidemocratic institution of all: the Senate. The Senate is heavily biased towards small states; California (pop 39m) and Wyoming (pop < 1m) each have two senators. The average state is currently much more Republican than the average American, amounting to 6.6% bias[1]. That is to say, Democrats could win by five points nationally (a huge victory given current polarization levels) and still not control the Senate.

Finally, I'm sure that you can end up with a situation wherein conservatives "feel" underrepresented; my whole point is that they objectively are not, so this whole persecution complex evinced by some is completely ridiculous. People are entitled to their feelings; they should also be willing to look at facts and adjust their reactions accordingly.

A Plane Without Wings: The Story of the C.450 Coléoptère
>It is wrong to say that there was "burning" for "several months", unless you're referring to the forest fires. A few buildings were burned down in isolated incidents during several months of protests across multiple cities.

That's neither here nor there. I didn't say "burning for months" (e.g. the same fires keep burning for months), I said "burning and looting for months", that is incidents of burnings and lootings occuring for months. There have been dozens, if not hundreds, and have lasted (not each individual, the case of them popping has lasted) for months...

>The vast majority of participants in the protests following the Floyd murder did not take part in any violence. It is all but certain that the fraction who did is much smaller than the fraction of 1/6/21 protestors who illegally entered the Capitol.

That's not certain at all. The videos show a totally different story.

>Looting is not well-documented but my friends in Portland didn't seem very concerned.

Many of those in favor aren't, especially if they live outside of the affected radius.
I always wonder about this, I feel like I get more "into" video games than most in terms of reacting to events. Especially games like Rocket League or FPS which are constant action. If I play too close to bedtime then sleep can be a challenge.
