Honestly I don't understand the complaints about the readability of this Rust code. I'm new to all three languages here, and I find it pretty readable. Maybe it was harder to write in Rust, I don't know, but in terms of readability the Zig and Rust code look pretty similar, and Go is the one that stands out as somewhat hard to parse and understand.
The problem is in part the anti-nuclear folks don't want the problem to be solved. So you can build a skyscraper 100 feet tall in a high earthquake zone, but you can't build a container. The normal approach (france etc) is to recycle and then vitrify the leftovers and store in a container. You get much shorter half lives, much less waste. So even if it comes out the container, it's still "in" something. Of course, you can build a reasonably secure container as well.
And from my experience Figma conversion exports are massive. Did a site last year and it spit out 12mb. Nice in terms of turnaround, but not in terms of performance.
> The issue is not finding a place that's geologically stable now. But finding one that's geologically stable in 850.000 years.

Something that takes several hundred thousand years for decay isn't actually dangerous.

Short half-life: High radioactivity.

Long half-life: Low radioactivity.

Furthermore, spent nuclear fuel can be recycled up to 95%:

> East germany choose the salt mine closest to the west german border. And in retaliation west germany build theirs right next to it, in the closest saly mine that they had to the east german border.

East Germany never put any spent fuel into their own soil. They sent the spent fuel back to the USSR. Spent fuel is a resource with a market value. The GDR and the USSR didn't just threw that away.

It's actually pretty safe and has among the lowest numbers of deaths per TWh:

Actually, the worst thing is that it causes Germany to build new gas power plants and stop shutting down coal plants:

Germany emits SEVEN(!) times as much as the French for producing electricity and heat. The nuclear phase out is causing 1100 premature death every year in Germany and causes additional costs of $12 billion per year:

And Germany has the highest electricity prices - worldwide:

Renewables have actually caused multiple deaths during the Texas blizzard because they couldn't provide enough electricity during the cold.
This is a really nice overview!

I have one nit about an omission: in addition to the emoji presentation selector, FE0F, which forces "presentation as emoji", there's also the text presentation selector, FE0E, which does the opposite [1].

The Emoji_Presentation property [2] determines when either is required; code points with both an emoji and a text presentation and the property set to "Yes" default to emoji presentation without a selector and require FE0E for text presentation; code points with the property set to "No" default to text presentation and require FE0F for emoji presentation.

There's a list [3] with all emoji that have two presentations, and the first three rows of the Default Style Values table [4] shows which emoji default to which style.

Personally I’m not offended by how other countries treat non-endangered animals. I wouldnt eat dog, but totally understand how they’re basically a pest in some parts of the world.

I do wish we find more humane ways to industrially raise livestock. Meat is way too cheap right now and we should reduce the intensity of its production. Humans dont need to eat meat at every meal like many of us do right now.

It’s also a shame that we don’t breed dairy cows for more longevity. I’m sure they could be productive for almost all their natural lifespan if we let them.

My grandparents had a small farm mostly for family use and it wasn’t uncommon to keep a cow for 10+ years. But they were treated almost lije pets. Each cow had a name and I think they rarely had more than 10 at a time.

PS: horse burger is very tasty. I recommend trying it if you get a chance
There is also Gftp, which is most probably available in your distro.

It would be much shorter in these circumstances. Your link is talking about 400,000 ton tanker ships. Container ships like the Ever Given are closer to 200,000 tons. And the cruising speed of a container ship is around 24kts, though I think they run slower than that nowadays to conserve fuel. The speed limit in the Suez Canal is nominally 8kts, but the Ever Glued was reportedly going 13kts when it ran aground. I would guess that that isn't unusual. With half the speed and half the mass, the stopping distance would probably be more like half a kilometer.
They don't claim to be. All they're doing is applying existing scientific consensus to new, unverified claims. If after going through legitimate peer review, this treatment Maduro is touting proves to be effective, you can be sure it will be allowed into the discussion as well.

Social media companies take on immense legal liability when they allow high-profile figures to promote unproven medical treatments. The current approach obviously loses a lot of nuance, but the alternative is opening themselves up to litigation when, for example, users ingest fish tank cleaner after hearing from the President that there's a miracle drug which goes by the same name [1].

You're basically right. Tiger Lake-H and Alder Lake should catch up to AMD this year though.
The real answer is that you have to pay attention to the gas limit per block, which is pretty high now

On the Ethereum EVM it is 12,000,000 ether gwei. Most blocks are full. If you are willing to pay 12,000,000 ether gwei at competitive gas prices, it will get mined.

For an image application you can probably use as many blocks as you want to create and store a larger image.

As blocks are already full, this wont change anything, some people will get priced out for the time being or they pay higher gas price, miners get paid 12,000,000 ether gwei * gas price either way.

So gas prices right now are like 135 gwei.

12,000,000 ether gwei is 0.012 ether. 0.012 * 135 = 1.62 ether @ $1,704 per ether = $2760 cost if you want to fill up an entire block

Binance Smart Chain EVM has 30,000,000 binance gwei gas limit. And the binance token is much cheaper to begin with at the moment.

and there are other EVMs, you can find the EVM you want to use. Ethereum mainnet EVM has the highest number of nodes to store it though.

Its economical if you can sell it for a higher price. No different from any other art trade, artist can take the risk or a studio can front capital.

You are looking at things in a vacumn and that's what preventing you from seeing the point here. When a gov actively bribes media it's not "just" an act of bribing that could or couldn't have happened. It implies pre-existing relationships between gov and media. It implies allignment of interests between gov and media. It implies will to comply to yhe gov. It implies future bonding between gov and media. Technically, the media are still "free". But we don't really care about the freedom of media to allign with the status quo. We care about the opposite. The reason media is useful and thr reason we care for oppression of the press is because we want media that can report against the gov who may have potentially done something bad. In that context, in real life, bribery is an indirect form of control. It's an indirect form of restricting freedom
To eschew ambiguity, what exactly is meant by both terms? Is there a social trend to do something that's counter to fairness?
Two things:

1) React also didn't have any of that when it started.

2) The "ecosystem" is a fallacy. It's merely used as propaganda, to win popularity arguments and to dismiss new technologies. 99% of the packages on the so-called ecosystem are badly written, unmaintained shit, and most projects don't really need third-party packages other than React/Redux anyway. Especially projects that have a dedicated designer using Figma.

Marine VHF radio. Ships are supposed to maintain a listening watch on Channel 16. Modern radios also have DSC capability to automatically alert when another ship signals distress, even if they’re working a different frequency.

And yes, a large ship would also be monitoring AIS and have onboard radar.
Methane is going to come out of sewage whether we process it or not, and methane itself is a greenhouse gas. It's not going to come out of the ground without help (in the quantities we are using).
If you’re in California, it’s difficult to avoid the state’s $800 annual minimum tax, regardless of where the entity is formed or who does the initial or ongoing paperwork.

Even if a corporation or LLC is organized in Delaware or another state, if it does business or has employees in California, it has to register with California and pay the tax, which in some situations is waived for the first year.

You could throw it in the fucking ocean and it would be better than coal plants, and arguably better than natural gas.
This is why I use Framer, they have a built-in export to React function that is really powerful for early startups (as the whole tool is built on React)

My team has been using our Framer export (with a few tweaks) as the actual final UI for our early product. Designing is as easy as in Figma, with the advantage that you have actual React components out of the box (working chart libraries, video components... any package you want to use). Whatever you design is responsive, can be connected via API to any database, and all of this is done collaboratively in the same document.

It has been a mind-blowing experience in terms of product shipping speed, and as a designer, it really makes you connect in a deeper way with the complexity of the final code.

The problem is that small businesses that are ready to invest in any custom IT are very few and far between. People will literally spend hours every day doing menaial data processing instead of paying 50 dollars for an app that does the same work in minutes. You really need to focus on the sales aspect of the business and establish a very efficient lead pipeline, preferably one where you get recurring income from subscribers.
Won't work. It's a cool proof of concept, but practically, 0% chance of it being really useful.

Converting figma layouts to code is fairly trivial. Converting it to code that's usable is a whole other story. There's the actual design related concerns such as nested layouts and dynamic behavior, as well as code base management concerns.

At best this is a possibility for some tools like webflow, or framer. With figma, there's no chance given how they would have to re-implement to get actual feature-parity with actual target platforms.

Disclaimer: I am in this space and basically building what we're talking about. All these people saying that this is the future of figma are out of their goddamned minds. Figma already has css exports, and maybe they'll get design tokens. More than that? It would be a completely different product and kind of insane to try. The focus and clarity that figma has is underrated. People think that just because it's all about web dev, these are all the same tools, but they're not.

Speak for yourself. People have been warning about America's right wing militias for a long time, and about the fascistic tendencies in Trump's alt-right base since before his election. No one noticed they were in the political game? Have you ever heard NRA rhetoric? These groups are practically the armed wing of Conservative Christianity, the Republican party and the KKK, and their capacity for domestic terrorism was a primary concern of the FBI and BATF before 9/11.

Don't act like no one saw this coming. People have been shouting from the rooftops for years warning that this was coming.
Intel has the same capacity shortage as everyone else and GPUs actually seem pretty cheap (i.e. less profitable) given their large dies.
I was just explaining to my father what it is couple of hours ago. :-) Why .. because I was telling him a story about my nephew, who bought a MacBook Air and needed a thunderbolt hub to connect his old printer and a mouse to the computer. It did not work, due to - as it turned out after investigation - EM interference, so I advised him to wrap the hub into a tinfoil. That fixed things. However, later I talked to him and it turns out he threw the hub out, because "it stopped working." I asked what did he do, to which he replied that because the aluminum foil was dirty, he replaced it with plastic wrap ... Apparently my nephew is lacking a mental model of the problem (and therefore of the solution), so it reminded me of the cargo cult :-)
> accusations against RMS have been around transphobia[1] for refusing to use "they" for singular

Is this really all? On one hand, it's impressive how much cancel muscle the trans community has now, but in the other, I'm also against using they/them as a singular pronoun, it wrecks many phrases. It's even more jarring when you make an effort to appease them, and you find they have wife and children, and still reject gender.
That single hall is for the _whole_ country for _decades_.

Nuclear is the _only_ technology where the fuel and the waste for decades can be stored on-site. It's just extremely dense.

That (the below market rates) is part of the setup to promote outsourcing. A heavily unionized workforce doesn't make it harder to for an organization to increase tech role pay to market rates if it wants to, it makes it fight harder to avoid to doing so.

It seems unreasonable to demand industry/field leadership and a plan for turning down a grant out of moral courage. I would advocate "be the change you seek" rather than expecting everyone else to throw their energy into solving complex, systemic problems.

Also, you can't make people more ethical with a course. It doesn't work like that. People either have a semblance of a moral compass or they don't, and unfortunately I think there is less and less big-picture moral courage and critical thinking amongst the majority of knowledge workers. Maybe it's the way people were raised in the past 30 years, e.g., latchkey kids who grew up feral without mentors or active parental involvement due to two full-time working parents.

>Nuclear was never subsidized in Germany

When nuclear plants were built in Germany you couldn't get green electricity for $33 / MWh.

>It's not. Please compare which countries have nuclear weapons and which have nuclear power.

This is equally true of everywhere else. It's not about who built them 30 years ago. It's about who still wants to build them.

>Anyone who claims that nuclear power is a step towards nuclear weapons has no clue about the history of nuclear technology and has no clue how Uranium and Plutonium for nuclear bombs is made. Hint: It's not made with BWRs or PWRs, that would be way too inefficient and expensive.

I didn't say that nuclear plants are being built to create plutonium. I said that they were being kept around because of the skills and tech - it's a more or less cost-neutral way of keeping a ready supply of nuclear engineers and a supporting industry.

In the UK it's partly about nuclear submarines, too (which are PWRs).
> geologically stable

Isn't really a think when we thing about the time scale of nuclear wast...

Additionally Politicians mess in seriously bad ways with anything related to nuclear.

Like pushing for nuclear power but if it's found that the objective best place to store the wast underground is around where they live they will try all kind of things to exclude the best suited place from the list of potential candidates.

Or adding a unsuited place close to the border of the neighbor country they don't like "because of reasons".

Or pushing for nuclear power with arguments like it's electricity being very cheap while it's actually the most expensive electricity source in their country and that is even through it's highly subsidized (which the much cheaper alternatives are not).

Etc. Etc.

I would love I people would start to have a purely objective discussion about this.
