As a "tech guy", I never understood the notion of MVPs. Sure, start small makes sense, but delivering something half baked just demonstrates one doesn't care enough for their readers/customers. Why would anyone like to put himself in such a position?
I wish something like that would work for me. I would immediately begin to analyse what counts as a task. I'd set myself tasks, realise they're much more difficult than I thought they were and realise there's no way for me to complete this task and also hit my 25 goal.

Then I'd get frustrated with myself and probably go surf reddit for the rest of the day.

No system of any type has worked for me consistently.

Haskell has the worst operator overloading of any language I've used. There's tons of niche operators, only some of which have names, it's so hard to Google them.

Haskell should have enforced that every operator must have a `name`.

One great idea for storage is underground basalt formations. Inject CO2, and it'll turn into limestone in under two years. It can't solve the whole problem by itself, but there's enough capacity for gigatons of CO2.

There are several entities working on this. Here's a company with a small pilot project, and links to scientific papers: https://www.carbfix.com/

$50 per tonne? A coal plant produces about a tonne of CO2 for every MWh produced. Industrial electricity price might be $50 per MWh. So just paying for the carbon capture doubles your electricity price? $100 carbon capture charge would triple it. I can't see how this could be competitive.

We have an excellent carbon storage technology, it's called coal. And what's best, it's already there, underground, very safely, proven for millions of years! With no cost!

But we're still building new coal plants in many places. In some places, coal plants and steel factories have shut down, but it's often because industry has been offshored to a place that uses coal, or they're replaced with natural gas, only a somewhat better alternative.

So if leaving coal unused can't be made to work, then more inefficient and thus expensive methods of carbon avoidance likely can't either.

It's like working hard in the car wash for the whole day and then at the end of the day, spending all the money you just earned on having your car washed. It's a bad strategy - you would have spent a lot less time and effort if you had just washed your car yourself.

When the coal and natural gas plants have been shut down, then carbon capture might have a role.

Try the defaults until you get the basics. Look at the help file what you can do and what you need. After that you may want to implement seamless navigation between tmux panes and vim splits[0]. It really isn't a must but hey, it is very convenient for starters since they don't have any muscle memory for switching different splits.

After that maybe try to do same with AwesomeWM and that would be the ultimate navigation setup.

Underground saline aquifers are an excellent place to store CO2, and worldwide storage space is estimated to be orders of magnitude above what is ever going to be needed.

Also, keep in mind that CO2 is not stored as a gas, but in dense phase (liquid-like), due to the high pore pressures at the depths considered (> 3000 feet), well above the CO2 critical point.

At these depths, any leakage to the surface would be negligeable unless you make a really lousy job in choosing your reservoir.

I agree that we should aim to reduce energy usage, but I would argue we would need to both. As often said, there is no "silver bullet" to dealing with climate change, only the possibility of a "silver buckshot", where we'll have to do many large changes at once. Even if we could transit to 100% "green energy" overnight, that alone wouldn't take care of more than less than half of current emissions.

A third of emissions come from industrial processes, much of which entirely unrelated to the energy used. In a nutshell, these emissions can be reduced using CO2 capture/storage, or alternatively we could stop making things such as steel, cement or fertilizer.
> Algorithms are used to assess child welfare, evaluate teachers, and even “predict” where crime is likely to occur. When Yale researchers asked a bunch of cities to reveal the algorithms that controlled these systems, most of them either denied the request, gave the researchers everything but the actual formulas, or just didn’t respond at all.

And this is why at least some countries make this kind of black boxing illegal.
Why isn't it the point? The point of prediction markets is to distribution information. If you know a better source the prediction markets incentivize you to aggregate that source and distribute that information widely. Once people find out, then that becomes the norm and the asset gets priced correctly. That's exactly the point of prediction markets.

When you try to "define" a black box, to find its edges, what you're aiming for is irrelevant. You'll give it input and analyze the output to find out what states it can be in and what are the "rules", and use that to characterize the black box.

In this case whether a stable large city is to aim for or not in real life or in the game is a bit irrelevant, what's important is that the game's black box allows large, crime free cities if and only if they are a dystopian nightmare. This is how the state was defined and it's backed into the game by design. It's worth noting that someone made it like this and behind that ideology there's a message being passed on through the game.

By testing to find the win conditions in a certain scenario you basically discover what the designer of the system considered to be necessary to win. The coder who wrote the code responsible for this (or their manager) either put their own ideology in code, or put what they believed to be the most accepted by the target audience.

Almost any such creation embodies either the ideology of the creator, or that of the consumer. Sometimes it's boring and sometimes it's interesting to let the genie out of the black box.

> to use the climate as a pretext to reform everyone's lifestyle and to roll back industrial civilization more generally.

Not roll back. But do smarter.

It's not just global warming. We're shipping billions of tons of stuff from one side of the planet to another in sulphur-blowing rustbuckets. Creating continents of floating plastic in the oceans. Causing toxic lakes from harvesting rare earth minerals.

We can't keep doing this. Maybe we can keep it up so before your lifetime is over, but sooner or later it's going to be a problem that can't be avoided just like climate change is now.

There's many quick wins here. Buying locally produced foods instead of stuff flown in from half a world away. Not flying across europe for a 1 hour business meeting. Reducing plastic packaging.

And there's good news too. We're continuing the excellent path of energy reduction in electric appliances. They had to keep adding "+"es and now rework the entire energy labels in Europe because "A++++" efficiency became too long.

I think COVID already brought us halfway there. We're no longer used to business meetings, the fragility of our supply chains has opened up many eyes, and most office workers now work from home at least part time and do just fine. For the environment this has all been pretty great :)

The author explains, using fancy math concepts, that if investments in Capitalism were like independent rounds of betting on what you have, capital would still tend to accumulate with few people rather than be distributed evenly.

However, if you detach yourself from a distraction you would note that capitalist economies are not like independent bets at all, and much of the accumulation is due to confiscation, occupation, sabotage, undercutting to drive competitors out, propaganda (advertising), etc. - directly or by manipulating the government.

The most common problem that I've encountered with using environment variables for configuration is that developers often add them ad-hoc, in the module where the configuration is needed, making it impossible to have a clear idea of all the configurable options in a program.

The solution is not to get rid of env vars, but to have a mechanism that centralises the confirguration in one place; this way all the options are easy to locate, and they can be defined in multiple ways.

If the file extension is .txt, I always expect it to be opened as plain text. The file extension is, rightly or wrongly[0], the metadata declaring the file type — nobody would consider it reasonable for an .exe to remain executable if the extension is changed to .txt, after all.

One might, possibly, still argue about the text encoding of a .txt file (I’m old enough to remember Unicode being a new fancy alternative to ASCII), but that’s about it.

Remember that Egypt is a hopelessly corrupt developing country. It doesn't really matter who is at fault. The matter would be decided by an Egyptian court where the judge will rubberstamp whatever narrative and claim the government wants to present.

Remember that Egypt nationalized (stole) the canal in the first place from the UK. The only reason they were not bombed to oblivion was that it suited US goals of further humiliating former European imperial powers after WWII. Egypt operates tha canal as spoils of war and their only real concern would be if shippers begun considering the risks of relying on the Suez authorities higher than going through the Horn of Africa.

fwiw I've used it on and off as a last resort and it saved my life.

The first few times I happened to do it was not because I was aware of the link (20 years ago nobody wrote about it). It was by accident because I've stayed up so late that dawn surprised me during a night of insomnia. So it made more sense to just power through the day with coffee rather than mess up my sleep pattern. It certainly works for me like some kind of reset.
Some feedback:

* add some left and right padding, i.e. center the table or at least make it match the padding in your navbar

* back button functionality is broken (Firefox 87)

* Popularity metric doesn't really tell me anything at the moment (i.e.: a "progress bar" without labels is fairly pointless)

* Some columns are too wide for their contents (e.g.: pricing)

* Not sure the supplementary text is needed next to some icons (e.g.: The green tick icon in Version control is enough, the "View file version history" text adds nothing)
> "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."

Paradox: if I say: "I don't want freedom of speech for anybody but myself". Why would anyone defend my point of view?

I don't think all ideas are defendable, but then I cannot make a list of what ideas deserve to be defended are what not: this always seemed to me like the notion of love (you don't know how to define it, besides the chemical reactions in our body, you don't know how it got into you, but you'll know when it happens to you).
The Dardanelles are the narrowest straights you can’t just pass them, you need to book passage and you cant just sail into the Sea of Marmara with your AIS turned off, in fact you can’t enter Turkish waters with it turned off and you will get boarded.

The US has a much larger coast line and even then you usually have to communicate with someone if you don’t want to get a visit from the coast guard.

Also I haven’t seen a single luxury yacht you can rent without a crew, this isn’t any different than chartering a private jet you get a pilot, co-pilot and a flight attendant as part of the package. A yacht isn’t a small boat you need a proper captain, an engineer and a service crew.

A boat that can sail form anywhere in the med to Russia needs to be quite big and have quite a bit of fuel and supplies.

This doesn’t seem to be an operation that can be executed so simply you need to make sure there is enough fuel/supplies which may raise flags on shore when you book it, you need to find a way to deal with the crew, you need to be able to replace the AIS and have a valid ship registration to pass through the Dardanelles into the Black Sea.

While I’m sure an organized crime cartel might be able to pull this off but the resources and planning this job would require would be quite insane.

For sufficient amounts or suspicious operations, banks should be in charge of authentification, ie showing up in-person for bank transfers such as a car, showing up and supplying fingerprints if the bank transfer buys a house...

And in fact, for poor people, anything that might engage their entire savings might also benefit from a more advanced identity verification.

For example my stock exchange account just takes a password. It’s a scandal.

Delusional - absolutely. Such a large proportion fall into the trap of iteratively overfitting to the test set without much of a care for the basics such as data quality, what question to ask, etc. It's a problem.
> I don't see coal being an environmental hazard and that's carbon captured in the ground. Plus you have to ask whether some risk of leaks or whatever is worse than not even trying at all.

When it's in the ground it's not, no. But when we try to take it out or put it back in it does cause significant environmental disruption. Especially open mining.

> - Without joking: not with that attitude we won't. Let's not quit before trying?

Because any effort and money we throw at this won't go to things that are more likely to work. The scale to make CO2 capture actually make a difference is huge. Even the thought of producing and siting all those capture factories is mindbogglingly difficult without creating even bigger problems. For example: If we have to ship all their machinery and steel from China, we're likely to emit more CO2 than they will capture in years.

Like I said I'm open to being proven wrong but I don't think it will ever scale to this level.
> If the Ever Given really was ran aground to due a once-in-a-75-year-sandstorm then it's hardly the fault of either the captain or the port authority to predict such a freak weather occurrence.

The second part of your sentence does not follow from the first part. If you have a large storm every with low but non-zero probability (and, actually, a higher probability than 1/(36575) given the weather conditions, let's say 1/(4075) = 1/3000) - then the parties to the agreement regarding the use of the canal need to plan for this contingency; and I assume the contract governs who has responsibility for such planning: The canal for salvages/re-floating, or the ships for being able to maintain buoyancy even in this kind of conditions.

In other words: The point is not to predict the occurrence, it's to be ready for when it occurs.

> We can't keep doing this

In the broadest possible sense, no, we can't keep doing "this": either we limit fertility somehow or we got the Malthusian limit eventually. That's just the consequence of the exponential function. And right now, whether population will stabilize on its own before we hit carrying capacity is an open question.

But if you hold population constant? Yes, we can keep doing this indefinitely, or at least until the sun boils the oceans in 500 million years or so. Why wouldn't we? There's every reason to believe that we can supply oranges in January to everyone.

Show me the math that says we can't. I'm not persuaded by rhetoric about rust bucket cargo ships. It's exactly this sort of sentimentality that makes it difficult to actually make progress on addressing actual climate problems.
