Oh that's such a cool company. I only recently got put onto Terra preta through my personal favorite gardener -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnTaWiO5Eso (he's funny lol)

I'm going to try make my own ad hoc terra preta plots for fun too. Are you able to share any more information on your company? Who is actually buying this service?

I feel like biochar is going to hit the main stream this year or next.

Going to make a compost tea and soak my bio char in it too.

> anaerobic combustion that produces a charcoal/activated carbon

I wonder if this is the trick though, not that there is organic matter down there, but that is already broken down and fully activated the charcoal.

It would also be great to know if the beneficial fungal processes happen at those depths. So many questions aha
About 8 years ago I migrated the company's infrastructure to AWS. About 5 years ago I built out a real-time Android app and decided it would make total sense to use Google Cloud services. I regret that move even today. GCS services are unreliable w/many limitations, let's not even talk about UX/UI.
AWS is not all peaches and cream either, they launch new services all the time (which are not so well developed ie. IOT / pubSub /) but their core services are solid (S3/CF/SQS/SNS)

Looks like an unashemed intimidation operation, given that there is nowhere in Guam a civilian can bring a car sized quadcopter, and island's tiny population.

It pretty much screams of somebody trying to say "we can fly our foo-drones over your missile battereys, and ship any time"

Of all countries, there is only one on record with car sized, gas powered quadcopters.
The problem is, from my perspective (and having lived there), the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex is neither resilient nor a megacity. Outside of the 635 and 820 loops, it is just suburban sprawl that gets scorching hot in the summer and everyone who lives there has to be reliant on a car.

DFW is going to be in a world of hurt when the water runs out and that day is coming somewhat soon. There are already places in central Texas where the aquifers are dry and the lakes don't refill during the formerly-rainy season. North Texas is reliant on a set of manmade lakes that are already slower and slower to refill, with more and more taps being added every year.
Interesting. I can't say I'm terribly surprised there's an official word for it or that it was a historical practice. Reading Digger, it is quickly clear the author drew on a wide variety of sources and inspiration. I'd not be surprised if Damnatio Memoriae was a conscious inspiration.

Quite the contrary, at least in computer science. Tons of good problems, actually developing a solution (and the theory and experiments to back it) is usually orders of magnitute more difficult.

Another point is that to get to this volume the "researcher" probably have many papers that he/she had no part in. Not even formulating the problem. In the case of physicians I encountered senior doctors who just conditioned using the department's medical statistics on adding him/her as author. That is, every paper that uses this specific public medical data adss this author regardless of their contribution... (To be clear they not even necessarily have anything to do with the data collection beyond what they already are obligated to do at the hospit, just happen to be responsible on managing access it)

I think we have to look beyond just the vegan market - I perceive it to be about about reuniting the vegan and non vegan markets by replacing the supply chain of the actual target food to comply with veganism further down the road. As a business opportunity, the potential for growth is not limited to a relatively small percentage of the population who take on the personal baggage to hold themselves to a vegan diet (though they are a critical evangelistic user base to start from), it's to corner the entire market by making it cheap, patentable and ubiquitous.

The promise of environmental benefits helps to encourage investment from all camps open to the notion. The hope that it might bear fruit would for many outweigh any risks they see, because there's a 100% chance the sky will fall, displacing sea levels upwards if we don't do enough to control our impact on it, and a less than 100% chance that this research will backfire enough in this department to not be worth exploring.

You'd have to be either be highly risk-averse about some physical possibility like pollenization/natural immunity/unforeseen consequences (prepare for them), or have some kind of philosophical/religious reason at a metaphysical level to oppose it.
But iPhone uses NVMe so theoretically both.
No argument here, but what does this have to do with the countless other neighborhoods in NYC and the consistent expansion of housing that has happened in them over the past few decades while other cities experienced far worse gentrification pressures by not building housing?

Hudson Yards is not what I'm referring to in any way in my posts on this article. I'm mainly talking large towers in Williamsburg, along Atlantic Ave in Brooklyn, in the East Village edge near Alphabet City, some in Gowanus, Long Island City, and many others I'm probably forgetting.

More accurate to say she was Anglo-Irish, as she was born in Ireland.

For technology with uncertain results and uncertain resource requirements, this does not follow. It may well be that any effort we spend today is entirely wasted 100 years from now.
Wow, that's... actually pretty sensical. The science part of me rejects it for having no evidence. But the pragmatic part of me would put its money underneath the theory. The reason

The bigger question is: how did the first Protozoa form? The usual primordial soup theory of random chance?

One good thing about this theory is that if there are 10^7 habitable planets at any given moment, each of them are "trying to produce life." So the chance that life gets to Earth increases multiple fold.

One problem for this theory is that if it takes a thousand years for Earth to get protozoa from another planet, then we would expect to have gotten multiple different types of Protozoa. But there is basically no variety on Earth: it's all carbon, and 99% uses oxygen (a few use sulfur).
The parent is correct. They have considerable capacity to accurately classify everything in their regional vicinity in milliseconds. This is old capability.

Tracking millions of entities in your general space in real-time is definitely possible today. I have little reason to believe the US Navy cannot do it too.
>So almost the whole world agrees adults having sex with children is wrong. Even though they don't agree when adolescents are mature enough.

You won't get any argument about that from me. Consent is never optional and if an individual isn't able to consent (for whatever reason), then sexual activity with that individual is both inappropriate and, as you pointed out, a crime in most places.

The discussion as to when a person should be legally able to consent to sexual activity is one that's hotly debated and the laws concerning that varies greatly around the world.

Such variation causes a great deal of confusion. I can legally have (consensual) sex with a 12 year-old in Brazil, but in the Virgin Islands, I could go to jail.

But reality is rarely as cut and dried as that. Teenage boys in the US have been branded sex offenders for life because they engaged in consensual sexual activity (and not just sexual acts either. There have been cases where sexting between teenagers has landed children in jail) with teenage girls.

It's wholly inappropriate, and IMHO, should be a crime for adults to manipulate children into sexual activity. Sadly, that happens all too often.

On the larger issue, I expect that we are in violent agreement. However, I choose not to demonize someone for having a conversation about the setting of arbitrary age limits WRT the ability to consent, especially given the wide variation in those arbitrary limits.

It seems clear to me that age limits need to be set to deter the manipulation and abuse of vulnerable individuals (in this case, young people) and it seems unworkable to address those on a case-by-case basis. As such we're back to setting arbitrary limits.

Simply discussing what those limits should be isn't harmful to anyone, and no one should be demonized for just having that conversation.

There's a big difference between contemplating what range of ages should be considered appropriate for consent to sexual activity and actively abusing those without the ability to consent.

To quote the eminent philosopher[0], those two things:

"...ain't the same fucking ballpark. It ain't the same league. It ain't even the same fucking sport."

That explains it. I had difficulties with the English translation. I thought maybe this is art or something. Then read it in some other language, and it was more palatable, but I do not remember the book anymore. I only remember an enormous baby rolling in the sea and lofty structures emerging from the sea as a by-product of Solaris brain ruminating.

Most of those plants would still rely on the soil for some nutrients, I assume their history in poor soil has just led to them developing additional ways to get some nutrients. Like vitamin d in humans.
it could refer to matrix multiplication and matrix addition of smaller matrices during the algorithm (iirc most fast multiplication algorithms start by splitting the matrix in pieces)
Screen resolutions have not and they are way worse.

Ship sizes can just reuse that replacing “graphics array” with “container ship” e.g. Quad Size Extended Container Ship.
Terraforming refers to 'turning another planet into a second terra'. Marsforming would be 'turning the planet into a second Mars', which wouldn't be particularly useful, since we can't live on Mars anyway.

Not to sound too defeatist about it, since let's be honest we are still sitting pretty high on the list of people doing pretty well for ourselves, but I'm not sure there is any real escape.

In addition to more people moving here, one of the other reasons the Puget Sound housing market has shot up so dramatically is because lots of us didn't lose our jobs during this pandemic, but we for damn sure lost what we usually spend money on. With so much money sloshing around, people make the decision of "well, surely now I should buy a house, right?" And then they do. And since more money is available to them, housing prices are driven upward.

What sucks is if we have this worry, those of us of the high-five-figure/low-six-figure brigade, how must it be to be of even lesser means? If we're feeling the creep--the only reason I didn't get hit with yet another $100/month rent increase is because the Governor said they couldn't--then what is everyone else doing? I am anxious not only for my family, but for society at large.

I don't know how much longer that can last. Maybe it can last forever, since the monetary policy in this country seems to be that housing prices Must Never, Ever, Ever Fall, because housing is both a required good and the primary "investment" vehicle of everyone with lower net worth than an Apple executive.

My employer has taken up the work from wherever mantle and has said that where our company has offices, even internationally, are places where living is acceptable. As I'm an EU citizen, I wouldn't need work permission to go live there, maybe I give there a go for the second half of my life.
it evened out because people who were not in lockdown states got infected, and those got transmitted to the states/cities that had been in lockdown but subsequently opened up. In other words, the lockdowns are half-assed.

I think one important part of Gentrification means there are people with more money moving into a neighbourhood. The real estate agents just showed the building to them on the quiet day and they bought their piece of it, believing it's like this all day every day. And when they move in, they realise the quietness was rather the exception than the rule. If they were from the area before, they would have known. But because they payed this amount of money, they think they bought the right to a have the quietness they were sold on.

I've seen similar things in Berlin in the 90s and early 2000s when West-Germans, mostly from Swabia moved in. They were sold apartments next to Youth clubs and the new neighbours didn't like that they had loud music on Friday and Saturday nights. But this was Berlin, this was what it was famous for. But whatever, a lot of the clubs had to shut down.

I think they were just asking them to justify in what ways do they think Google have the best product as their post only really highlighted the ways they weren't.

From what I read, those quadcopters were far bigger than a bird, and even more noisier than civilian quadcopters, heard from hundreds of meters away.
I would examine the texas blackout as an example of why such problem persists in the US. There's no incentive, during good times, to prepare a system to help during black swan events. When the black swan event occur, the costs are borne by those who suffer it. After the closure of the event, life goes back to "normal" - and the cycle would repeat.

Hm AWS support has been very good to me. Granted we pay for it, but every time I had a question they actually reproduced the situation based on my descriptions, prototyped a solution and came back with exact steps on what to do, pretty quickly, too.

(Can't speak for GCP or Azure, I run limited production stuff there since historically we just happened to get a ton of AWS credits first. But, I try to stick with open-source instead of Amazon's proprietary just so that migration or multi-cloud remains an option for us)
That's awesome! The tea thing is a good idea. No one is buying it yet, but the plan is to have some micro rain gardens installed this spring using the tech to reduce the overall area required due to the increased drainage depth and moisture storage. It's essentially an erosion control measure until there is a carbon market and we increase automation. We will also be doing some testing with trees - remediating poor drainage with living trees that have been already been planted.

Some of the organic material breaks down really slowly, providing some nutrients to bacteria at a rate that allows the gas to escape, but yea essentially the trick is the ultra high surface area and high compressive strength so that it maintains a porous structure instead of compacting into an anaerobic environment.

Yes, beneficial fungi reach much deeper than roots due to the higher penetrative ability of hyphae and they can still extract stuff from whatever depth they reach.

Long term I want to be able to do what the guy in the video is doing but with out all that shoveling...
whilst it's true that australia's state borders are much more easily monitored, if people truly wanted to cross, they don't have to go thru major roads.

I think the willingness to follow rules is a much more important trait than the ease with which roads could be closed.

The US has many roads between states and it is indeed impractical to close them. But it would not be impractical to ask every citizen to not travel. But how many would've heeded that call?

Intel to Revive Tick-Tock Model, Unquestioned CPU Leadership Performance by 2025
I am an order of magnitude more productive in Scala, compared to python. The compiler does so much for me, I can focus on just writing my domain.

Frankly, I think Scala is just good at exposing weak programmers and teams with poor discipline. I've seen far worse codebases in python where there's no disciple: all methods are public, monkey patch classes at runtime, etc.

I think articles like this are so common because Scala is easy to pick on. "Implicits are bad" is more interesting than "Implicits have a very specific usefulness", but Implicits are peculiar and unique to scala so the language gets lampooned. "Private methods make code more maintainable" may be just as true, but no one says Python is universally hard to maintain -- so long as the person behind the keyboard knows what they are doing.

Your statements seem mostly correct to me, but may be read in a misleading manner to imply the prevalence of colds is similar this year to past years. That data also does exist somewhere (since it was used to compute the plot in your first link), it just isn’t shown in that particular plot. From comparison to the paper, we seem to only have plot 1 for 2020, and not plot 2. Plot 1 (rates) showed the relative effects, but we need a link for plot 2 (counts) for 2020 before we can make statements about the absolute effects.

Hope that helps clear up the misunderstanding. And if you have a link to the counts data also, do share!

I agree with some points author is making, but overall I wouldn't put them either on Node.js runtime, or Node.js ecosystem.

a) Erratic max latency

IME Node.js performs well if you are not pushing its limits. If you have a service receiving 25k+ requests per second, you should better benchmark it, regardless of the language. Horizontal scaling should be configured based on the results of the benchmark.

b) Cognitive overhead

Yes, there is a bit of an additional overhead when mixing async and non async functions, but same goes for every other language that supports promises, C#, Python, Rust, Scala, etc.

Typescript should fail if you try to access a property/method of a promise, without resolving it, so I'd say it's not such a big deal.

Personally, I rarely work on Node.js, but when I do, I'm really grateful for await/async and typescript.

You know what's an even worse cognitive overhead? Languages without strong typing, like Elixir.

c) `pg` connect & query

I would say the issue lies with how the library is implemented. I'd definitely expect `query` to fail if it's not connected to the database.
Bit at the end is interesting. Not only are those coherent, but they actually work well in the specific story context given and are a bit funny. This seems to be yet another case of GPT quality varying wildly depending on whether or not you can find the right narrative framing to give it.
