Is Agile Content Marketing Right for You? (& 7 Ways to Implement It)
Inappropriate and incorrect are very different things. One thing they have in common, though, is that after processing feedback over and over again that doesn't affect your thinking at all because it comes from a perspective you fundamentally disagree with, you learn to tune it out. For example, if you're talking about Covid 19 vaccines and there's an anti-vaxxer in the group, you'll eventually stop engaging with the content of what they say, because it isn't worth your time.

A significant difference is that incorrectness is context-sensitive in a different way than inappropriateness. Saying something incorrect can be a productive part of a conversation that serves a shared goal of achieving correctness. I'm not going to feel inhibited or embarrassed about saying something incorrect unless I haven't put in the appropriate level of preparation for the context. Saying something inappropriate cannot serve a higher shared goal of avoiding inappropriateness, because it spoils that goal from the start.

If I were to store solar in my electric car as a form of temporary storage, I get probably between 80 and 90% of what was generated by my cells delivered back to my house. All I need to do this are some slight alterations to my electrical system.

If I wanted to do this with my hydrogen car, I would need to get some expensive electrolysis station next to my house and I would get maybe 50% of stored energy back after electrolysis. I would also need to get the compressor etc maintained regularly.

Also, if you mean storage for actual driving, as in possible range, there's hardly a need for more range than a Tesla can already deliver... For most people. The biggest change to make it more feasible for pretty much all people is charging speed and that keeps improving too.

In theory, sure. But in practice? Not in my experience.
Not everyone works in tech. I know some "forced entrepreneurs" that failed big. They were "forced" in the sense that the country in which they were living was just not able to provide them a decent job.

Yes, didn't notice the error until after window for editing had passed. I initially meant England, but "Britain" itself still works because the UK includes more than just the nations on the island itself.

Also, it's my understanding that the main island is Britain, and that "Great Britain" includes the smaller outlying islands, but not the island of Ireland.
> Tesla is known for rigging its EPA tests for higher, but illusory, numbers.

The Tesla numbers are correct and verifiable, actually. The problem is that the EPA "highway" test is designed to capture the "average highway mile" driven by a US vehicle (which makes sense, it was designed to inform purchasers of aggregate fuel use). Here's the driving schedule:

https://www.epa.gov/sites/production/files/2015-10/hwfetdds....

Note that it never goes above 60mph, and spends most of its time between 40 and 50. This isn't wrong, but it corresponds to an urban highway commute (again, which is pretty much the "average highway mile").

The problem is that this does NOT match what typical consumers think of as "highway driving", meaning blasting 75mph+ down an open road. So people get in their Model 3's and measure their consumption at those speeds and it doesn't match.

And it's true that other EV manufacturers (Ford, especially -- the Mach E actually does somewhat better than sticker consumption on the highway) chose not to run the full test and used other methods that put a higher number on their stickers. And in context that's probably more informative.

But nothing was "rigged". In fact Teslas in stop-and-go urban commute traffic really do get close to their sticker mileage. It's just that no one cares because one's battery doesn't run out on an urban commute before you get home to charge it. Ironically, EV owners in this case care LESS about efficiency than gas owners.
You just proved my point. Your comment presents the idea that Bitcoin is "burning the planet" and needs to be focused on with ZERO elaboration as to why, then you use an appeal to emotion invoking the undefinable term "greater good", then you ignore logical consistency as if it doesn't matter when making an argument. Absolutely pathetic.

In hydrogen versus electric, it would seem that hydrogen offers way more to the auto and fuel industries in terms of ability to extract ongoing payments out of consumers for parts, single source or limited / controlled source fuel, and maintenance of a large complex system of high tech components.

It also ties the consumer to that fuel system with no other options. You can’t, in other words, fill up at home in your parking spot.

The potential for auto parts profits is high because hydrogen, being the smallest molecule, is notoriously corrosive as it is able to leak through almost any material. And able to bond with many molecules, causing corrosion. So I would expect a lot of degradation over time.

So I guess that’s why Toyota loves this: ongoing parts sales. As a former Toyota owner, I loved the reliability at first, but it was not absolute, and the parts cost for repairs started approaching the cost of car payments as the car got older.

I like reading about pre-decimal number handling in Europe. This text kind of made me wish for some historical drama movie going all in on doing that tired "genius concentration flow breakthrough" trope (it's always the same sequence of excessive cross fades) with expert handling of the counting board the text describes. And particularly into illustrating how noting down the results in Roman numerals would effectively be like the duality of working in RAM and disk persistence we know from computers. And that's the point were I suddenly realize that they didn't even talk in the same numeral system as we do, probably a wild mix of terms like dozens or score and so on for countables, Latin for years and who knows what more.

And, to make things even more weird, spoken Latin, as opposed to their written numerals, seems to be refreshingly decimal except for those crazy duode- and unde- anomalies? From this perspective, it seems almost impossibly unlikely that they kept non-decimal systems around for so long.

>This is one of the more common critiques against PoS and it just doesn't hold true at all.

Maybe I'm an edge-case (I don't think so), but I was able to use the hardware I already owned, and the electricity already included in my utilities bill to acquire enough Ether that would allow me to deploy a smart contract. That won't be possible anymore in the future. So you're factually wrong, at least in my case.

The second answer, although there is only one "winner" of each block's competition, so it's only one miner/mining pool which ends up confirming a transaction. It's controlled by a hardness parameter that's readjusted automatically in a regular fashion.
the exact same argument can be applied in reverse (and the reverse is much more likely given relative military budgets of the countries).

Listen: If you are a human being: nobody reading it at this point; there is nobody to convince. Just do the math and make your own conclusions.

I say that's mostly true, provided they're authorized to work in the US and move there.
Source? The only option that I'm aware of that exists in Bluetooth spec is an optional add-on that basically initiates an 802.11 (WiFi) ad-hoc link for faster transfer. Not really suitable for audio.

Max bandwidth for regular Bluetooth is around 3 Mbit/s, to my knowledge. Bluetooth LE is lower at 2 Mbit/s.
This idea doesn't apply at all for stupid speculative bubbles like proof-of-work crypocurrency.

As another good counterexample to your "market solutions for everything": I don't want rhinos driven to extinction, so I vote with my wallet by never buying powdered rhino horn or other poached products, and donating to environmental charities to protect them. However, it's very likely that rhinos will be extinct in the wild within our lifetime. Does this mean "the market" has decided to exterminate wild rhinos? Should we eliminate poaching regulations and remove red-tape to stop distorting the free-market price of rhino horn?
I wasn't aware of this project at all. Does anyone have more information about the background of the development? e.g is it a completely fresh code base or is there any relationship to previous efforts such as minivmac or basilisk2/sheepshaver?
There’s probably a hell of a market opportunity for stagnant businesses to introduce the malware to themselves, ransom themselves, pay themselves, collect the insurance then launder the cryptocurrency.

Given we are still seeing plenty of images out of Palestine and Gaza, even from news orgs, the current approach is plainly and objectively insufficient to the purported goal.
There doesn't seem to be enough bandwidth, not even with BT 5.0's 2 Mbps LE 2M which just barely ekes out 1400 kbps after accounting for protocol overhead, just below CD audio's 1411 kbps data rate for 2-channel 16 bit 44.1 kHz LPCM.

https://www.novelbits.io/bluetooth-5-speed-maximum-throughpu...

Unless ALAC can consistently keep the data rate below 1400 kbps, I don't see how it's possible to have lossless audio over today's BT standards. And keep in mind that CD-quality is the lowest tier of Apple's new offering.

Apple filed a patent a few years ago for something called "high data rate" (HDR) that's capable of 8 Mbps. Maybe something will come of that eventually.

Basically. Also, it's already possible to do NFTs with negligible amount using Immutable X layer 2 scaling solution on Ethereum - it's just that they seem to be doing it only for Gods Unchained right now. There will be even more other NFT scaling solutions.
> If that's the case, who's the arbiter of what's "too much" power for a use case?

I see a lot of people replying with a slippery slope argument of this nature, which makes me think I should explain my argument better.

I'm not arguing that burning electricity alone is the problem. I'm arguing that burning electricity for the direct purpose of making a financial product is a problem for society, when 1) the financial product explicitly incentivizes burning up as much as you can to make more money and/or 2) burning up that energy can be alleviated by other technical solutions.

I'm not arguing that mining should be illegal. I'm saying the 'sale' of the results of that mining should be illegal. Using or making incandescent lightbulbs is not illegal, but the sale of them is banned or restricted in large portions of the world [1]. Less harmful alternatives exist, so sale is disincentivized, the world moves on.

This is not the government deciding how you spend energy resources. You can continue to mine all you want. But you shouldn't be rewarded for that.

One thing I should point out is that I recognize that an alternative solution for these incentives is to make electricity always so expensive that it costs more money in electricity spend to mine crypto than you can make money of it. Make electricity price depend on crypto price. Needless to say I don't see that working out :)

It's gotten this far... How much longer will society tolerate the 'crypto' insanity. I haven't spoke with a single person that remotely understands anything about the subject, yet it's a topic they usually bring up in almost every single conversation. That's in SF... can't imagine how far the madness has spread but it's finally started to annoy me as you can probably tell :). Enough is enough. I want my friends brains back on track with reality. They feel like they're on to something that will make them a lot of money. How do I bother getting between them?

I mean, thank you for offering the alternative solution! I couldn't agree more that not burning coal is the only ultimate solution. A severe, possibly overly severe, Carbon tax is maybe the way. But as the great Stephen Schneider once quoted some other great, "Don't let the perfect get in the way of the good". And he was talking about cap and trade vs carbon tax!
Bitwarden is also Electron, at least on MacOS. I discovered that when I wanted to mass-delete entries and Cmd-A selected a bunch of random text on screen (including the hint text in the search box...). Was able to confirm by pressing F12 which brought up the dev tools.

I've been thinking about what I should do in a V2 of this lib.
No, it isn’t. Gasoline is dangerous, but it’s a liquid. H2 is a gas, under extreme pressure, and with a very low spark energy.

The spark (ignition) energy is very important safety wise. Nothing will light without an ignition source. In fact hydrogen is more dangerous wrt to gasoline than gasoline is wrt to flour (yes, flour can explode). That is:

Flour:gasoline < gasoline:hydrogen

Hydrogen is dangerous. And that’s fine.

When was the last time you were able to lobby congress to write laws to your liking, or create trade agreements, or author a bill to advantage your financial interests?

That's exactly my point. Corporations have all kinds of power and leverage when negotiating with politicians regarding their tax burden. That's what leads to corruption. Corporations don't even exist as anything other than a legal framework. When you tax a corporation, you are by definition taxing the investors in it. The corporate framework gives those individual investors cover to avoid paying their taxes.

I'm suggesting that you bypass the problem by eliminating corporate taxes, and replacing them with taxes on investors, who individually would not have the leverage to avoid them. As an added bonus, you'd deprive politicians of a powerful tool that they are demonstrably incapable of wielding fairly and effectively.

If you haven't read Rettig's letter[1] to Wyden explaining this, you might want to. It would inform you on the complexities that TCOs face when performing different types of audits. Why different types of audits? Tax fraud takes different forms largely based on class. Working class tax fraud is handled by correspondence audits, while capital class tax fraud is handled by face to face examinations. You can imagine the difference in training and cost without me explaining it to you. (Also it's in the letter)

This difference in types of audits brings along a difference in cost to the IRS. correspondence TCOs cost less than face to face examiners. Correspondence examiners are GS-5 through GS-8, while face to face examiners are GS-7, 9, and 11. It simply costs more to audit the rich right now. If you want to pay correspondence TCOs the same as face to face TCOs, or believe that high value audits should be conducted by correspondence TCOs that's one thing. But this topic deserves an understanding of the structural challenges that auditing the capitalist class entails.

In the essay, nerds are identified as socially awkward, not necessarily quiet but out of their element in social situations. And sure, Crick rubbed people the wrong way, because he was loud and overly-sociable. But wasn't he, by Watson's account, absolutely in his element in social situations? Isn't the main complaint about Crick the fact that he was too loud (especially his laugh), too willing to solve other people's problems?

And was Watson a nerd at all? I think the magic of The Double Helix is that Watson tells the truth (or "his truth") to a fault. That's necessary for good biography and it's very rare but I don't get the sense that Watson is unaware of what he's doing or what the consequences will be. It seems like a conscious decision to write down everything he thinks and, as they say, publish and be damned.

Anyway, I think the essay is making a semantic error here by identifying the usual heroes (odd men out, innovators, people who refuse to go along, people who do their own thing) as nerds. There's no doubt that going against the grain is almost a prerequisite for being an admirable person and also for being someone who changes the world. I just don't see that as nerdiness.

For what it’s worth, I’ve got the Bose QC35 and regardless of whatever the battery claims are, I often get multiple working days out of them.

They also have a pretty light clamping force compared to most over ear headphones I have or have used, so even with glasses they’re quite comfortable to wear all day.

And if the batteries do run out, they still work as headphones (sans ANC) with a cable.

The QC20 kinda seem like the worst of all worlds for me. Wired so you’ve got cables to catch on things, battery-dependant, in-ear…
Absolutely, why do you think the first jock called the first nerd a nerd for the first time? He was projecting!
That's not the problem: a Nigerian emits 5% of the carbon footprint of a US person. So they could have 20x as many babies as the Americans? We also have wide differences in the same town and family, too: for instance, my father has emitted at least 20x the CO2 than I did in 2020 (because he like big cars, big houses and fly many times a year).

The problem is clearly what each human being can emit for themselves, according to their means.
I assume they optimize Safari for this, and I'd think they'd be much more likely to quiesce a background tab (and let it swap out) than to keep it running at a slower speed.

I agree. Ideally an extension never breaks a site. But if I were to make a store. The most robust thing in the store would be the checkout system. They’re leaving money on the table considering how little work it is to test the site with the few popular extensions. It’s basically like supporting a special payment method or exotic browser.

"Trustless" is relative. In this case, the protocols are still trustless—the trust lies one meta level up, where you decide which protocols to use. In this situation, there are network effects as well—you can come up with your own perfect protocol in a vacuum, but if nobody uses it, who cares?

In this case, you can think about it as one person saying "I think it's a good idea if we do this" and a few hundred other people saying "I agree with you". Obviously, they're more likely to agree with the first person if they have some sort of institutional legitimacy. But is that "trust"? That's very different from the definition of "trust" that's generally used in protocol design.
