I would personally save your self a bunch of effort and get a openbuilds/ooznest workbee.

Its a kit, should be ~$1700 all in. Its repeatability is rather good (0.05mm something like that) the firmware and software are all tuned for that machine (assuming you use a kit)

sure you can just do it all yourself, but if you've never done it before its going to cost months of your time
This is a political issue and political issues are debated in Parliament in any case, and that includes the budget. It's no more easy to cut funding if it comes from the general budget rather than from a ring-fenced dedicated tax, and ultimately people will decide what they want when it's elections time (and I can tell you that the majority of people in the UK are very attached to the BBC). This applies for the UK but also I'm sure also for Germany and Austria.

IMHO, TV licences are anachronisms at this point (in the UK we still even have TV licence discounts for black and white TVs...) and it's right to at least debate if they are best suited well into the 21st century.
It's usually called 'functional illiteracy'.

If you can read the words in an article, but don't understand what it says, should you really be considered literate?

Understanding what it says is not understanding the meanings of separate words, but the meaning of the text in question.

Heh, as late as a decade ago in South Africa the national broadcaster used to air scary ads implying these vans roamed the neighborhood and would catch you out.

Nobody bought it and they went back to politely pleading with people to pay their TV licenses.
Not a scam, just bad tech. If you compare it to say https://nano.org

It's understandable though, it was first and drives on the network effects and its name ever since.
I'd argue the web is the Fediverse. You access instances called websites, some of which are controlled exclusively by one person and some of which allow you to post on them. The websites all communicate with each other via a protocol called a hyperlink, but they may choose to use richer content sharing protocols at their discretion, and can also block certain hyperlinks or entire instances deemed unsuitable for their website. Websites' moderation policies vary from only one person having write access to allowing users to write and link to what they want alongside content syndicated from other fully independent websites, and users can visit many websites, and be as selective as they like about following hyperlinks.

Turns out people really like the big monolithic websites with the most users though...
> very senior software engineer
>> they do seem to occasionally look for this type of engineer

I have worked for one of those giants as a senior engineer with almost as much experience as yours, I don't remember many engineers actively developing beyond the senior level (level 63/64 at MS for reference) but we did have quite a few old guys (and a bit less girls) at those levels.

I don't really see anything. If I attempt to visualize a cube from the corner, I can maybe say I can see the corner and three edges leading from it (to be honest, it's hard to say that I truly see it, but maybe a vague outline of three lines). I don't see the remainder of the cube.

If I try to imagine a cube, and then mark the edges into thirds, I cannot imagine what remains when I cut off corners back to the mark. And the cube itself is more of an idea of a cube rather than visual representation.

I cannot mentally rotate the shape as I do not see a shape.

I'm sure it's hard to believe, but trust me, it's hard for me to believe people can visualize in the way people describe.

It's not just any private business. Compare with social insurance fees that must also be paid, it is not something you can opt out of while being part of the society. The fact that it is not a state owned organization is a feature, not a bug.

In Germany specifically it is not a revolving door between public broadcasting and politics, and there is clearly journalistic pride in taking down corrupt politicians, so while it is always good to be suspicious of media calling it a propaganda arm is overstating it. Media isn't always neutral but privately financed isn't more neutral than others.

That's a sycophantic way of framing market-dominated thinking, yes, but as other users have pointed out, market thinking having _primacy_ in society has downsides. Large downsides, in my opinion.

Markets are a tool in service of humanity, but market dominated thinking abounds and we get this tweeted with a straight face by think-tank people:

You mean tracking? Advertisements themselves didn't change. And you don't need any complex countermeasure, just knowing that the information not trustworthy is enough for all practical purposes and for all information sources. People who fall for lies have only one wrong assumption: that the information they receive is trustworthy, once that one is out, it stops working for good.
If you share a flat with other people this exact same thing happens. In the german form, at least, you can specify that somebody is already paying for that flat (and you put their details) and they will stop asking.
My wild guess is that watermarking is done on the client. Doing it at the server stage requires running an encoder for each user connected to the meeting, which increases broadcast costs imensily for Zoom. It would make sense for security reasons, but the trend with them seems to be profit instead.

If watermarking is therefore done at the client stage just before being heard/seen at each endpoint, then there is a good chance that it is hackable and watermarking code could be patched or audio/video extracted before watermarking occurs.

It would still require whistle-blowers to take this more envolved step before leaking a meeting though.

It's akin to IPv4 and IPv6. IPv4 is obviously the worse tech, but because of the scarcity and network effects the value of IPv4 addresses will keep climbing.
As an experienced long distance hiker/runner would you have pushed through the pain as the author did?

It seems crazy to me, to push through pain so bad it "makes you chest constrict", likely coming from bone as opposed to soft tissue, and in an area (foot) where long term damage would be very bad. I've pushed through minor cases of shin splints and tendonitis but what the author describes sounds irresponsible to me?

So I'm wondering if I'm too wimpy or if the author is irresponsible?

It obliterates a wide range of social settings, though. Running things in the community, often at a voluntary level that meant more investment locally, gave people a chance to meet and be involved. In the UK those spaces have been disappearing for generations.
In The Netherlands the fee got abandoned and replaced by a tax increase (on BTW, an equivalent to VAT).
I think the funding and governance (by Royal Charter) of the BBC have historically provided a huge benefit to society in the UK.

Advertising free children’s TV (and radio) may have delayed the onset or rampant consumerism fuelled by commercial TV elsewhere.

The BBC microcomputer project is arguably the origin of ARM CPU’s.

Initially the license fee was for radios, I can’t find a reference but I remember being told as a child that politicians saw the risks of radio propaganda and legislated to mandate broadcast media to be politically unbiased .

It’s interesting seeing suggestions on the recent threads about EU funding for a WhatsApp alternative - perhaps the license fee could also fund the infrastructure for something like signal.

What is absolutely clear from history is commercial media outlets fuel political bias, and it seems to be increasingly damaging to society.

while the argument about time/kid holds some truth, an opposing truth is that single kids often lack a sense of humility in regards to attention by others and a lack of sociability because they never really needed it.
Yes but it is used as a function for transforming vanilla option prices into a more natural unit: their implied volatility rather than their dollar price. Option traders think of option prices in terms of the implied volatility not the dollar price of an option. So in that sense Black-Scholes is used in the pricing of almost all vanilla options on stock-like things. Even though the price from a market maker usually comes out of a more complex model that (attempts to) ensures the quoted prices are free of arbitrage in the cross-section of strikes and across maturities. Usually some form of either stochastic volatility, local volity or LSV(local stochastic volatility) model.

Titles in this format - Is some usually unremarkable X actually radical Y? - have conditioned me to instantly answer "No", sometimes audibly.

I think it's the disingenuity masquerading as curiosity. You're not actually pondering that question, I should not expect an insightful dialectical exploration of the topic. You've made your mind up and you're exploiting my open mindedness to trojan your one-sided conclusion in there.

Is it time for X to Y? No.

Should X be Y? No.

Is X actually Y? No.
>Is x a scam because I don't understand it/I'm priced out?

Uh, no. Though fiat currency is definitely a scam.
> A website can track users across browsing sessions by storing a tracking identifier as a set of entries in the browser’s dedicated favicon cache, where each entry corresponds to a specific subdomain. In subsequent user visits the website can reconstruct the identifier by observing which favicons are requested by the browser while the user is automatically and rapidly redirected through a series of subdomains.

> The caching of favicons in modern browsers exhibits several unique characteristics that render this tracking vector particularly powerful, as it is persistent (not affected by users clearing their browser data), non-destructive (reconstructing the identifier in subsequent visits does not alter the existing combination of cached entries), and even crosses the isolation of the incognito mode.
Taycan can add 60 miles in 4 minutes using 800V, 350kW and not just from zero initial charge.

We got a BMW i3, it has a battery capacity of 33 kWh. Fully charging it in 5 minutes, as the article claims, would thus require a 400kW charger, assuming an unrealistic constant charging condition. With a nominal battery voltage of 360V that would be 1.1kA, which seems quite a challenge.

And that's a fairly tiny battery as far as electric cars go. A Tesla 3 with the new 82kWh battery pack would require over 1MW.

On a related note there was an article[1] in the news here just yesterday about how building the charging infrastructure is challenged by the fact that the cost of expanding local transformer stations has to be shared by those wanting the extra power, like say a gas station wanting to add EV charging stations. This cost can be quite high due to the power requirements.

Writing about facts is not trivial! You have to flatten the dependency graph between the facts in a way that helps understanding, select what to include or omit, find metaphors sometimes, etc.
Some of these require finding new insights about the facts.

You cannot just "list" facts if you want to help the reader to understand. You also don't need dramatic stories, though memorable examples help.
>Can you please elaborate how a movement against police brutality and racism is in any way comparable with a group that supports a conspiracy theory regarding a cabal of satanic-worshiping cannibals?

How is a movement that rejects a conspiracy of members of the financial elite in any way comparable to a cop-killing mob that loots and burns down whole neighborhoods?

You're making the mistake of assuming goodwill on the part of BLM instead of anti-White racism.

This is not a fee for the cable provider. This is a fee you pay regardless of whether you consume public channels or not.

In some countries, the mere existence of a TV or radio in your household means you have to pay. These are publicly broadcast channels.

last February I was in Tokyo training for the marathon. Whilst I was on a long training run round the city, I received a message that the marathon was just cancelled. At this point I decided to run as far as possible as it was my only chance to do so. Around half way I started to get a weird pain in the side of my ankle but pushed through it.

I still have that pain almost a year later, multiple MRIs and orthopedics have been unsuccessful in finding out what it is. I'm only now able to run very short (2.5km) distances. Pushing yourself to ignore pain is very possible and can be very dangerous.

For a topical example, take the covid vaccine distribution system. It is done by the government, and has fared poorly in the US and Europe. The excuses are variations on "the states don't know how to set up a distribution system".

But we already have a distribution system for vaccines. Where did you get your last flu shot? The local drug store, a market based system. I see the government busy trying to reproduce overnight an efficient, working system that's already there sitting idle. Of course they'll fail.

I phoned my local drug store and asked if I can make an appointment for a covid vaccination. They replied they have no idea when or if they'd ever get any vaccination supply. Meanwhile, the state says they have a severe lack of people who can give vaccinations. (I know where they are hiding, they're behind the counter at your local pharmacy.)

The solution is simple and stupidly obvious. Distribute vaccines to the zillion pharmacies, and pay them per vaccination in arm. They're not going to waste any time vaccinating people.
So you just ignore the facts which contradict your hypothesis? This is how people come to believe in wacky conspiracy theories.

If you are only for free speech if you find the speech tolerable, then you don't understand the concept or you are not for free speech.

Similarly, If you only support democracy if people vote the way you want, then you do not understand the concept of democracy or you do not support democracy because that is not what supporting democracy means.

There has been violent riots in the US all throughout 2020, I think they were bad, but I don't think for one moment the right solution was to prevent the people who attended them from being able to voice their opinions.

There were also claims that the 2016 election was fraudulent and illegitimate since 2016.

If you were okay with all of that, but just object to this because of the outcome, you should look at why.

Oh, you haven't been following Austrian politics in the last 10 years it seems.

- Parties says x in elections, that doesn't mean they will do x.

- Some parties/politicians will use every possible way to force public stations to suit their needs - regardless of what people think. Most people will never know - they just consume TV, radio or tabloids and believe everything they hear/read.

- If you don't institutionalize independence, it is gone.

- People in Germany and even more so in Austria have no idea how valuable public stations are. In Austria in particular it is a growing trend to criticize and even ridicule public stations - and this sentiment was gladly picked up and fueled by populists. They regularly demand that ORF is defunded - simply because they cannot control their unfavorable reporting on them - and they would like to. They were in the last government and they put "their guys" in every possible position to ensure control. They are still there and undermining the principles from within, trying to slowly destroy the ORF as a whole - either from incompetence or malice, who knows?
They're both about wealthy enigmatic characters (albeit the count of monte cristo book doesn't keep the count's purposes a mystery) who throw extravagant parties. Both characters seem emotionally distant and turn out to be excessively obsessed with the past. They both feature a lot of tragedy and revenge and the titular character meets their love from long ago who is now married to someone else.

They both have connections to the criminal underground, they both anger the husband of their love causing death.

By the 1970s, tens of thousands of children had been born to South Korean women and American soldiers.[89] In South Korea, these children are often the target of racist vitriol and abuse, being called mostly "western princess bastards" (Yanggongju-ssaekki) children of white soldiers, and a minority born to black soldiers were "darkies", or "[n-word]" (Kkamdungi).

Racial purity is still a big deal in Korea, unfortunately.
