I started Zettelkasten a few months ago as I had the idea to write more, think more, and create a blog. But the system crumbled -by lack of time- as I finally ended working full time as a start-up founder...
My insight is that Zettelkasten are a fantastic tool if you have a writing purpose in mind or at least some topics on which you want to store some knowledge and reflect actively. Otherwise, you will end up piling up loosely related ideas without knowing what is relevant for you. I loved the system because it helps you to read in a more focused way. Actually, it allows you to think while you read (instead of ingesting passively knowledge). But it remains a time-consuming and intensive system to maintain. You have to commit to it. Anyway, even if I quit, I kept the Zettelkasten I wrote and intend to return to it if my lifestyle changes in the future. I loved the experience.
I want to know if anyone ever uses this to create a fleet of classic microphone sounds from a working mic like the SM57. Sennheiser, Neumann, Telefunken, AKG. Hell, you could stack it with preamp filters like Neve. It would bring me great pleasure to see a studio chock full of SM57s masquerading as the best microphones money can buy.
I have one for private use.
I still don't understand why anyone would want to live there. It's an area that - irrespective of price - would end up near the bottom of my list of places in London I'd consider living, alongside far more run down places.
This is a wild take, that this military intelligence isn't useful to opposing militaries, and that hydrogen bombs aren't a pretty damn dangerous thing to risk leaking. I'd much rather people be overcautious with respect to nukes than undercautious. Hasn't 2020 taught us to respect tail risks a bit better than that?
Similar experience. I used Docker rootless for a while 1-2 years ago. There were hiccups and upgrading was a pain, so I stopped using it. It's possible it has improved, though.
Oh this is very interesting. I'm going to take some reference from this. We're not trying to do the exact same thing, but there's definitely an overlap.
That’s hilarious that people are downvoting this. I imagine they don’t even know that daywork is a thing or that getting paid by the hour isn’t just a metric used for billing different clients.
Then maybe only give it access to the LAN so it's easier to get data off of it.

There's also a hacky workaround where you disable all of 5 services that relate to Windows Update to effectively prevent Windows from knowing updating software is a thing. You do have to edit the registry manually to do this. If you leave at least one, it'll turn the other ones back on. This is a very much malware-like behavior tbh. And, of course, do this at your own risk because Windows is written in C and known for containing obscene numbers of nasty vulnerabilities resulting from manual memory mismanagement.
For 7, may I ask if you are using a physical notebook?
The UI is much nicer than gerrit (or at least the gerrit UI I knew from 5-6 years ago not sure if they have changed). It’s more “GitHub”-y. It’s a bit confusing at first but once you get into it it’s pretty damn powerful.

Side note, I honestly seriously think we need much better tooling than just these 2 for code reviews.
Interestingly even the wealthier residents of this complex have seen huge hikes in the service charges (presumably to pay for the running costs of the sky pool...)

Some counterpoint to the claim in the article that green movement refuses nuclear energy:

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/georgemonbiot/2011/a...

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/sep/15/nuclea...

In any case, I think nuclear is pretty much dead. It's just cheaper to spam windmills and solar panels. I think it will stay there for a while (in some countries, that have the history and the expertise), but it will not gain significantly in the future.
Allow me to offer a different perspective.

I'm 40 years old who is a muslim. I spent half of my life living in a muslim/arab country and the other hald in the west. Here is what I've seen:

1- Of all the people I know where I grew up in the arab country, probably only 2-3 drunk. This does correlate with the data [1]. But those 2-3 people did drink heavily.

2- Alcohol in the arab world has a different meaning. In the arab world it would be more like: "hey there is this poison, let's drink to forget about my issues and lets do that in hiding". While in the western world, it's more "let's meet for a drink and have a little fun".

3- There is no drinking culture in the arab world. This is because there are limited number of bars/pubs and people do not consume it openly. Not in weddings, gatherings or barbeques. A minority will come already drunk to a wedding (see point 1)

4- Islam is big on forbiding Alcohol. Not only that, but there is this idea that alcohol can stay up to 40 days in your body (never verfied this claim). Hence why a lot of people who actually drink, stop drinking 40 days before Ramadan starts. While a lot of muslims don't pray, the majority do fast and hold onto Ramadan. Bars and Pubs actually close a month before Ramadan too. The drinkers I knew, did actually follow this rule.

5- Yes, I know, you probably knew that guy in high school who was an arab and a heavy drinker. And that is correct. But the data and what I've seen in arab countries correlate more with point 1 above. Alcohol is so frowned upon, that even people who like to drink don't want to show it to their kids or neighbors. It's rare to have an arab family buy alcohol and put it in the fridge. Alcohol is also not available in supermarkets or anywhere except in bars. I lived in >1mil city and we had 3 bars.

6- There is a weird association in arab countries between Alcohol and Violance/Agression. WHich is some time true.

I never understood this obssession with Alcohol. Because I just wasn't used to it. It's so bizzare that I had to explain myself all the time on why I'm not drinking.

It's pretty easy when you are the person that made the website (like most personal websites).

Again, I am not advocating for not having HTTPS so I don't know why you think HTTP+HTTPS is less private. It is exactly as private only it is also human readable and requires no centralized authority's lease to be visitable.
You get really good at this kind of thing when you're building large scale virtual desktop systems. Suddenly, the random updates, scans, or whatever translate to a million IOPS on the SAN and a widespread outage of unrelated systems.

In my experience, most editions of Windows 10 are simply unredeemable. You have to start with an LTSC edition, which behaves more like XP used to: Very little bloat, no forced patching, everything except what you actually need turned off by default.

Meanwhile, Microsoft recommends that you don't use LTSC. Prefer the normal editions. Use LTSC only if required. Please don't use LTSC. Don't disable Telemetry! LTSC is for special customers only. Use the Current Version for the latest features. The Current Version has many benefits that users enjoy! Consume Soylent Green! Eat it. Eat it.

I'm holding out hope that he's deliberately trying to destroy the cryptocurrency market.
I've seen your comments throughout the years and it's been one of the sparks for me to learn more about Bitcoin's power consumption, it is truly bizarre how easily shoved aside the argument about the climate impact of PoW cryptocurrencies is by their proponents. Seems that some on the Bitcoin train didn't realise that the concept and technology have been coopted by miners, etc. since the rift about increasing block size or not, the miners and others with high stakes in maintaining the status quo have won. They won't ever allow their investments to become worthless (or at least non-profitable) and now all the other smaller agents have to fight a war against that to ever have a chance to change the massive ecological impact of Bitcoin.

Thanks for shaping a path to educate myself on this issue, I recognised the Dyson sphere analogy pretty quickly, haha.
This only has a small effect, though. If the median London house was bought 10 years ago, it already appreciated 50%+. Selling into a 10% slump wouldn't put anyone in negative equity.

Oh I understand you !
I would have love to have design hints like that for one summer job I had.
I was tasked to scan medical books with thousands of pages. I had little time constraints and could do it wherever I wanted. I was paid 80$ per book which I found crazy huge before starting.
Even by optimizing every parameter of the hardware, software and my workspace, I couldn’t do more than a few 2-hour sessions per day and it took me several days per book.
A boring job if there is one.
I would certainly use it as a zen practice today but as a teenager, not really needing the money, I couldn’t find any value in it (after optimization).

I think you're right. As with the charging stations, it's all about critical mass. When enough people have EVs, they'll be everywhere and convenient. And I expect they'll find a way around the slow charge, too, such as just swapping out batteries.

And eventually there will be so few gas cars on the road that "gas" stations have to be something else. It won't make economic sense to haul that fuel to as many places, and many will close or repurpose.
1. IMO and, I think, as this author would say, the electorate is voting based on bad information.

2. If the cost of a nuclear plant were lower, I think we’d see more projects despite the electorate‘s thoughts.

PubMed and court opinions, unfortunately. Lots of medical and legal issues the past year or two. These resources help cut through the misinformation you find on some other sites and determine if the authority (doctor, cop, lawyer, judge) is competent and intelligent.

Address lines are not the same as data lines. Your original post mentioned “math”, which, to me, implied data, not addresses. Processors absolutely can do 64 bit math (integer and floating point; some can even do multiple at a time), but you are correct that 64 physical address line processors don’t exist…yet. It is entirely possible we’ll see servers with that many sometime in the next few decades.
I'll reply with a popular joke that should apply to the three current replies about "why would that be bad":

"The doctor told me to stop drinking, smoking and having sex. I asked him if it would make me live longer and he said: no, but the time will feel longer."

So just optimise for what you want, but forbidding these sort of things forces others to leave the same dull life you want to live.

TSMC: N6 to Match N7 Output by EOY, N5 Ramping Faster, Better Yields Than N7
When I was in Japan, I met a guy who was a manager of a Japanese supermarket branch in Hawai’i for some time.

He said in Japan, people are usually about the same. But in America, people are either really smart or really stupid.
Good to know, thank you.

I'm not scared of competition, I'm mostly wondering how viable and profitable such a business would be. I happen to believe people would pay for good specialized CI (say, Elixir-only, Rust-only, Golang-only etc.) but you're also quite right that the real value-add seems to be in integration.
And how does that stop sybil attacks?

It's not different from no mining at all - whoever can flood the network faster wins (with signed blocks or output guesses)
It’s hard to argue this while several reactors are under construction around the world... just mostly not in the USA and mostly not in Western Europe.
I don’t consider the Quillette to be a good source of anything and it’s well known to be good at peddling right wing interests. It’s a student newspaper for weird right oddballs. Signed, an ex solar researcher/semiconductor researcher.
Because the lag from starting new positions to getting paid is, for people without savings, extremely problematic, and the assumption you can obtain unskilled or low skilled employment rapidly is fairly optimistic in general, ignores potential travel issues, and is pretty city centric and much less plausible in rural areas.

Ah yes, sorry, I should clarify this in the README: Docker images should be tagged in the repo (so you know what you're deploying), and Harbormaster will deploy the new image when you update the tag in the git repo.

It doesn't currently check upstream Docker registries for changes like Watchtower does, mainly because I think that's not a deterministic enough way to do deployments (but that can certainly change).

Imho that violates the principle of least astonishment - that "at" would have such different behavior from "[]" for negative numbers.

What kind of fabric that can withstand the stress of wearing, washing, drying and still be comfortable to wear and retain the look ?

Sure rugged outdoors stuff or comfort clothes that you don't care about stretching out and discolouring. But stuff like sweaters, jeans, etc. doesn't seem to matter how much money I pay - I get a more comfy fabric and better production quality - but durability wise it's nowhere near close to the jump in price.

So instead of fixing the language and allow to use array[-1], they add an other way to access array element.

Let’s not split hairs about the manner in which some folks leave their jobs. “Walking out” can imply leaving without warning, or might better represent the worker’s state of mind when they make the decision to give notice.

The underlying problem is that wages are so low in some places that it’s not possible to survive without:

- multiple incomes in the household

- multiple jobs

- going into debt

- living in a dangerous place

Etc.

These conditions leave the person without much choice but to leave.

Good timing because it seems like Facebook marketplace now supporting shipping (and they syndicate your store through IG, etc) is set to disrupt this space, based on some people I know that are selling a ton more on FB lately and complaining about not selling anything on Depop. Will be interesting to watch how this plays out.
Great article.

The story of Indian point is unfortunate. The reactor was old —- in a perfect world we wouldn’t have to choose between old reactors vs no reactors. But funding new reactors in the US is tough (which is arguably due to US regulations as discussed on HN recently).
At this time it was a perfectly example of why CSS specialists and developers forced into using CSS were talking past each other. The purists insulted table layouts with good reason, but the best they could offer was crazy tricks with floats that made semantically as little sense as tables.

Now that CSS grid is finally useable both sides can agree on a proper answer, but this is 20 years later.

That's the thing about purists, they're not wrong in pointing out the problems, but they're often so obsessed with the problems they fail to critically evaluate the alternative solutions and realize they are also terrible.

Arguably the UK is a "2-party-but" system. The main parties are limited in their policies towards Scotland because of how much influence the SNP has, and we've seen what UKIP managed to do while barely ever winning seats. There's enough of a threat from smaller parties to keep the big ones somewhat cooperative, or at least take a wider range of views into account.

Yes, power is relative. But with UBI, people gain power against corporations—because right now, corporations have massive power, and people have very little specifically due to our need to keep working in order to live.

You should not do that since there is no reason to disallow the user from doing what they want.

But if you really want it, writing a custom boot ROM and OS is probably the only way you can have an actually secure system (you might need a custom CPU as well).

Given the lack of skill and discipline of most programmers the whole TPM/secure-boot/UEFI/grub/Linux/dm-verity stack is likely full of holes, so just the assuming that it works as you'd expect will probably be disappointing.

> What if you’d dedicated most of your life to trying to save the planet, but then you realised that you may have actually—potentially—made things worse?

If you are radical about a subject, you'd better be right. That is one reason why most people try not to be too radical about subjects which they do not or cannot fully comprehend.

Moreover, I cannot help but sigh, when I see this person go from one extreme to another: wearing a pro-nuclear T-shirt on the first picture, calling out "the ideology that worships renewables" which have "become the latest green god: sun-like, literally", talking about a "boomer environmentalist in the UK", etc.

Do we really have to be radical all the time, going North full speed, doing a U-turn and going South full speed? Come on, be humble, you now think you were not right in the past, maybe you are not right today. It is pretty annoying to get told what to do (or not to do) by inconsistent people who are always 100% convinced that they are right when they talk.
What can you infer from just knowing one human being can run 100m in 9.81s?

ASR is good for graphs and stuff if you know how to interpret things.

One thing worth bearing in mind for people new to Hi-Fi audio is that the experience is very much subjective. That people’s tastes, wants and desires in music and listening experience differ wildly.

That while a loudspeaker pair or headphone may measure or perform objectively well, it may not pair up well with your particular taste, or with your music.

As an example Sennheiser’s HD800 is a well regarded high end headphone that does particularly well with the fine details of orchestral music, but lacks the low end punch required for Hip-Hop or other styles of bass heavy music, and it’s elevated treble can make the heavily distorted guitar of Black Metal incredibly grating on the ear.

Of course everyone is different. If you know the equipment you like, and how it’s sound signature translates to graphs you can use the measurements and commentary on ASR to discover other equipment knowing how it differs within that context.
It's simple. Fossil fuels work, are absolutely reliable and they make the world spin. Renewables, for all their vast potential, do not. And at the end of the day, the major world decisions are made based more on financial interests then on social/political ones. That's why i believe that following global trade and markets will give you a more reliable outlook on the world than following News sites.
Isn't this basically a normal tagged image? Like one you'd see on instagram/facebook. It displays a little bubble at a given position with the user name of the person in the picture. When you mouse over it changes to indicate it's a link.

Sounds challenging to implement that in straight CSS :) I'd love to see a demo
But compared to how much wind and solar are build - "pretty much dead" does describe it fairly well I'd argue.

Windmills and solar panels are not just cheaper, they're also easier to build while nuclear power plant construction (at least in Europe) seemed to take forever and got more and more expensive in the process.
