The B12 in off the shelf beef , chicken is from it being injected by farmers (along with all manner of other stuff such as antibiotics).

The truth is that every living being is low on B12 due to soil erosion / over farming. So in a way a meat eater is supplementing B12 by proxy of an animal, where as a vegan is buying a pot off amazon (and in turn able to get a much more specific dose).
Article mentions two reasons: it's a proven design that is reliable. And it has been radiation hardened:

> Mars’ atmosphere offers far less protection from harmful radiation and charged particles than Earth’s atmosphere. A bad burst of radiation can badly wreck the sensitive electronics of a modern processor — and the more complex the chip, the more can go wrong. Plus, at 138 million miles away, it’s not like NASA can just swap out the processor if things go sideways.

> To make the system even more durable, the PowerPC 750 chip in Perseverance is a little different than the one in the old iMacs. It’s technically a RAD750 chip, a special variant that’s hardened against radiation and costs upwards of $200,000
80/20 is very typical for ground beef, although some people shop specifically for 85/15 or even 90/10. I find the 90/10 lacks flavor.
> Rent controls are a textbook example of a well-intentioned policy that does not work. They deter the supply of good-quality rental housing. With rents capped, building new homes becomes less profitable.

Rent control tends to be adopted with the fairly explicit goal of prioritizing affordability for existing tenants in their current residences over either encouraging maintenance/updates or improving housing supply for people who aren't current tenants, so I don't think it's at all a policy that doesn't work.

A policy whose purposes are at odds with other, arguably more important, policy goals, sure, and possibly even with other more important, if less inmediate, interests of current tenants.

But saying it “doesn’t work” bases on it not encouraging things it is not meant to encourage is...not really useful.

If the apartments are being sold, then they must find buyers. If there is no way to rent them, then it's not profitable to hold on to them, and their value decreases. At that point, people can simply buy apartments, and everyone is happy.

My experience is typical and backed by data. In my city, roughly 25% of the renting population moves every year.
Well the other aspect of it is that DataScript is client-side. That said, we could use sqlite in browser or even IndexedDB at this point.

I found this article to be rather unbalanced, like the free market always knows best. For example, cutting red tape may increase housing supply, but red tape is not the only thing holding back building. I used to commute through miles of ex industrial wasteland, zoned for housing that was not being built on, because it was being landbanked because tax rules in the UK help large land owners store weath that way. So it seems to me that a right wing policy is damaging the market, the community and the economy. Perhaps the article would be more balanced if it acknowledged that better policy from both wings is needed?

If people could move en masse out of cramped expensive rent controlled housing in manhattan, they would. Moving requires upfront capital that a lot of people don't have. Banning rent control doesn't move these working people into more space in some suburb on the outskirts of town, it moves them into a tent under an overpass.
> How are you comparing nutritional value between meat and plant products?

It's impossible to do this really rigorously, as there are too many unknowns in nutrition still. So this leaves holed you can drive all sorts of sized trucks through, which means a lot of argument but not a lot of resolution.
Follow the foodchain, though— the "plant material" that industrially farmed cows are eating is almost entirely grown-for-purpose corn for which there are substantial inputs in terms of petroleum-based fertilizers. And even if there weren't, those same fields left fallow would be capturing the same atmospheric carbon for plant/tree growth and holding it for much longer than a crop which is being harvested every season.

It's not like the cows are eating exclusively grass clippings which were just going to be left to rot otherwise.

> It's hardly more effort than making a Facebook account

I'm not talking about the effort involved in opening an account. I'm talking about the effort involved in managing one's own instance of an app. That is not zero, and nobody, not repl.it or anyone else, can magically make it zero. But it is zero for Facebook users, because they aren't managing anything; Facebook is.

If, OTOH, your idea is that repl.it does all the managing (what happens if the server hosting the app goes down? how is the data backed up? etc., etc.), then we're back to the scaling problem: how do you scale that to a huge number of users without either not being free, or adopting the same business model that Facebook has (the avoiding of which was supposed to be the reason for doing all this in the first place)?
That system has probably been migrated a hundred times, and will continue to be!
He mentioned another one as well.
Public housing is neither incredibly expensive nor politically difficult as long as you have a competent government and laws that don't artificially make it more expensive (see: US).

The economics are very simple. The price of housing if it's not profitable to rent and even less profitable to hold will drop until occupancy is high. Those that can't put down a down payment will rent, the others will buy. If not, the price will just continue to go down.

This argument isn't theoretical. It's an actual process that has been done and works.

I find seitan and tofu completely unpalatable, and I can’t rely on eating hundreds of grams of peanuts to fill my protein needs. Lentils are fine...

I lift heavy, which I believe is integral to my good health (the evidence on the health benefits of strength training is overwhelming). You do need significant amounts of protein if you lift - this is backed by both research and empirical evidence. Designing 3000-4000kcal diets high in protein without meat is entirely possible, but highly impractical.

I bought a package of Beyond Meat. It was right next to the ground beef, and looked like ground beef. I assumed I could substitute it for ground beef in my spaghetti. Big fat nope! I opened the package, and it smelled exactly like dog food. The smell when cooking it was horrible. It completely ruined my batch of spaghetti. I don't know how people are cooking this stuff and enjoying it. Maybe there's some other way to cook it or season it? As someone who isn't much of a chef, I don't know what to do with it. Go to your favorite search engine, search for "Beyond Meat Smells..." and check out the autofill. I know I'm not the only one.
I watched Cowspiracy. It was not convincing. It used numbers that seemed wildly exaggerated on their face, even before doing follow-on research. It also seemed designed to be emotionally manipulative more than informative. Maybe I don't watch enough documentaries, but it had a youtube conspiracy theorist vibe to it, rather than a measured, investigative approach.
I haven't used it much lately, but a few years back I was working on a Windows Server system (whichever was the version that was basically Windows 8) and remember it being really janky (latency spikes, image artifacts, etc.) over my pathetic DSL Internet connection. Then I noticed some other admin installed TeamViewer on it so I gave it a try and it was way faster and smoother so I switched to it permanently, despite the constant annoyances because we were too cheap to pay for a license.

Admittedly, it's been almost a decade since Windows 8 (!?!), so this is a very dated experience.

This is incorrect and highly misleading. You don't have to open and close channels like that. Instead you keep them open and do circular rebalances when your channels are imbalanced. As an experiment I've been running an lnd node for the last 6 months. During this time I've routed 1445 transactions totalling 4.68249963 BTC (~223K USD currently) and only closed a handful of channels, using single digit sat/vB as it's not urgent. Lightning transaction fees in general are negligible at today's btc price. You transact with all your peers for free while you usually pay a fraction of a cent for sending transactions anywhere in the graph. Transactions are pretty much instant.

After running it for 6 months, I could certainly criticise various aspects of lnd but none of what you have written falls into the valid criticism category.
Without commenting on the "funding wars" part. The US leverages inflation as a taxation strategy (and doesn't really admit it).

Most lay-persons don't understand it as a tax and therefore do not complain about it until they cannot afford things (housing, food, etc), and at which point the government distracts by bundling (hiding?) the inflation problem with the stagnant wage / income equality problem.

Eventually (every 2 decades) minimum wage in increased to catch up to inflation. Basically the inflationary tax strategy results in the US budget getting 2 decades of "extra taxes" (burdened by the lower middle class and the working classes[1]), then a reset, and then repeat.

[1] Note inflation as a tax strategy is actually a negative tax on low-interest debt holders like businesses, and home owners. It is also has a net-neutral effect on the investing class, because assets inflate proportionally. Meanwhile, credit card debt and other high-interest loans are not reduced as much (i.e. X% inflation of 19% credit card interest is a lot lower than, X% inflation of 2.5% mortgage interest).

Paris is one of the densest city in the world (overall, there are denser areas) despite having a cap at 6 floors on building height. (I might be off by a floor or so) At that height the cheapest building technologies* still apply and up is not that expensive.

Now going up to 200 floors is very expensive. However on a per unit area it is only a few times what the cheapest building style* is. So it does require more expensive rent, but not that much more expensive, and as rent gets expensive you expect apartment sizes to fall to balance some of it out.

* cheapest that can meet reasonable building codes. I'm ignoring the uninsulated, fire-prone shacks you see in poor countries which are cheaper by far.

Either a cheap apartment is hard to find and afterwards it's even harder to move somewhere else.

The alternative - as in other cities - is that it's still hard to find an apartment that has a normal price. Of course this also attracts scammers.

The apartment situation in dense areas is bad, no matter if it's Berlin or not. At least the local government is working on a solution to not end up like Manhattan, both price- and concrete-wise. If they find a sustainable solution, then this would be a game-changer and other cities might adopt that.

The linked research is interesting and may be slightly more nuanced than your summary. From their executive summary:

"The WOP system effectively captures soil carbon, offsetting a majority of the emissions related to beef production. The largest emission sources — from cattle digestion and manure — are highly uncertain. We believe the results shown here are on the conservative side. Accounting for soil carbon capture is not yet standard practice and the results may meet with challenges, such as on ensuring long-term storage. In the best case, the WOP beef production may have a net positive effect on climate. The results show great potential."

It looks like their beef production does produce carbon (and methane) emissions, they just pair that with the carbon sequestration due to their land use. I appreciate that they did this research and published the results. It's an interesting argument.

But I'm unsure how well it scales at a societal level. For one thing there's the opportunity cost of using so much land for a single pound of beef. More significantly it seems like one could use their logic to pair any activity with enough soil-based carbon capture to argue that it's now a carbon neutral activity.

For example, one could argue that dirt biking has "net negative carbon emissions" if you subtract their tailpipe emissions from the carbon capture from thousands of acres of forested trails.

> Nobody has ever had their bank account drained in the US since the introduction of FDIC in 1933.

Plenty of people have had their bank accounts drained when they fell victim to "identification theft." That is quite a crafty euphemism -- banks fail to create secure systems, attackers steal funds from victims' bank accounts, and instead of owning up to their failure, banks blame the victims of the thefts by saying the victims' "identities" were "stolen."

I'll give the banks some credit, however: they'll prop up a seemingly empathetic customer service representative who will repeatedly say how "sorry" they are on behalf of their employer. If the victim is persistent enough, the customer service rep will eventually promise to initiate a lengthy investigation, after which the bank will perhaps reinstate the funds that were stolen from their system. Do they fix their broken, insecure system? Of course not. But at least the victim isn't clogging the customer service lines any more.
