I don't know about you but i just have a nightmarish vision in my head of thousands of self - propelled incendiary devices flying around and setting cities and countrysides ablaze. Shudder. No thanks.

And your comparison of zeppelins to cars and planes is flawed. The former consists chiefly of an extremely flammable gas. Protecting it is a thin layer of canvas (which can also burn). The latter contain a relatively small container of liquid which is protected by layers of solid metal and foam and all kinds of valves.
The only way to "cull all politicians and dirty industry leaders" is realize that wind and solar can't provide base power at rates people can afford. And if people have to spend too much on electricity, they'll vote in new "politicians and dirty industry leaders", like Germany's (and soon France's) return to coal burning.

If we started today with nuclear, we could trivially hit the 1.5C IPCC goal. Hell, we could likely hit it if the world started fracking and moved to wind/natgas plants (like the US is doing rapidly). But at least for now, nuclear and fracking are less preferable than >2C warming to nearly all climate change advocates.
No, even then, they're fundamentally different.

An organization can go through and update its C++, because ultimately they're distributing binaries (or doing everything internally and not distributing anything at all).

Web "pages" aren't called that for no good reason. If in 2005 you bought a novel, or some punk writer–artist's printed pamphlet, and now you can't read it because in the meantime some engineers changed a spec somewhere, then that would be a failure, not just in the small, but on a societal level. Just rev the language is something that people who spend 40+ hours in an IDE or programmer's text editor think up when they're used to dealing in SDKs and perpetually changing interdependencies and fixing them and getting paid handsomely for it. But that's not what the Web is. The Web is the infrastructure for handling humanity's publishing needs indefinitely.

To rely upon another observation:

"[This] is software design on the scale of decades: every detail is intended to promote software longevity and independent evolution. Many of the constraints are directly opposed to short-term efficiency. Unfortunately, people are fairly good at short-term design, and usually awful at long-term design. Most don’t think they need to design past the current release."

On the software side, is emulation/virtualization a good solution here?
This path is in fact being discussed. Power2Gas for seasonal storage is a key part of all plans for decarbonization that I'm aware of. There are already a number of demo P2G plants in operation.
That's pretty neat and looks nice. I wonder how it compares to fastai's nbdev/nb2md? https://www.fast.ai/2020/01/20/nb2md/

Is this going to get flagged because Google knows those past comments are true and they won't disavow them?

The doors to the lost and banned is open to all hypocrites I guess if one loves to call to cancel those for past comments and 'crimes'.

Downvoters: Goodness me, don't downvote the messenger.
Yeah, the old trope about doing LSD and then spending a day trying not to jump out a window doesn't come from nowhere.

I still support legalization though. Adults can choose what to do with their bodies.
There's a lot of anti-development NIMBY rhetoric in this article, along with the baseline assumption that more and taller development is a bad thing. Yet the current housing crisis has been caused by an acute lack of development, of decades of not enough housing having been created, with subsequent increases in housing costs.

I suspect part of the problem is simply that they aren't allowing enough development. If it's not easy/possible for a developer to buy existing sparser land in the city, knock down what's there, then replace it with a much denser/taller 10+ floor apartment building of many median market rate rent units, well then there's your problem. We used to do a lot more of that in decades past, and that's what comprises a lot of the more affordable housing inventory on the market today.

This looks much worse than I expected for a company synomous with kafka. They only have 60 customers with 1m+ arr for a product thats used pretty much by every established companies .
That same argument would work equally well with pretty much every chemical that has been banned or severely restricted, such as leaded gasoline, lead-based paint, several pesticides, several food additives, and much more.

Unless you really are arguing that government should not be able to regulate any chemicals, you need to refine your argument to contain at least some elements specific to recreational or medicinal drugs.
I think he said the opposite, tickets won’t be that cheap anymore.
The claim being made here is what I call the "Existential inference hypothesis": that we are somehow, as individuals, sampled from a large ensemble of consciousness across space and time. There is some difficulty in defining the conscious cross-section that governs this sampling process (could you be born a mouse? Maybe yes, but then you probably couldn't be asking those questions... Could you be born a rock? That makes even less sense; but all that differs among those cases is their atomic configuration). I think the sampling in this case might be a soft measure among linguistically capable entities.

What it does is allow some weak inference about the existential landscape, about everything that exists out there. I believe the author's refutal of 'inference from a single datapoint' is mostly wrong -- I believe indeed we're likely some kind of uniform sample, and single uniform samples don't reveal variance. But, there's not exactly a single variable here. We have a pretty large number of variables: population of the Earth, number of Neurons per individual, and so on. It's still not much though to give an accurate picture of the landscape.

I would indeed be wary of taking any hard conclusions from the data. If you use hard knowledge from biology, physics and computational disciplines, you can probably use our "sample" to refine estimates about life in our own universe.

Overall, the most I would conclude from this hypothesis is the following: "You and I probably (but not certainly) typical among numerical living beings in the entirety of existence.". The practical lesson I would take from that is to be thankful for what you have, and do the most of what you can for the world, because the basic donitions don't get much better than this.
>nuclear power plants are usually very likely to incur in cost overruns (a recent example being [0]), supplemental to an already significant expense and a very long term investment that most politicians do not seem to be very fond of.

I'd be interested to see a good fair accounting of all the externalized costs non-nuclear energy is able to pass off. Global warming is clearly one of them. The thing about nuclear energy is that danger and risk is inherently concentrated, so externalizing these costs isn't really an option. You can't go pouring spent fissile waste into the air and pouring buckets into the ocean (unless you're Japan, apparently). People have seen the dangers with Chernobyl and the like. People know enough to know it's dangerous stuff they can't take care of themselves.

If you have an oil spill, well it's nasty but people are familiar with oils in their engine, natural gas, gasoline, ash, and all that. People kind of understand it and know a little bit of exposure typically won't kill them. You can pour motor oil on your hand and you're mostly going to be just fine (do it a lot and often and maybe not).

Pour fissile waste material over your hand and depending on radiation, you might die just by getting close or get cancer from short term exposure. People see the danger and you can't externalize that. Other materials you can sort of shrug off because long term effects you can get away with externalizing in our society. Let consumers, governments, and others pickup all the debt you're generating that no one is accounting.

So I think we need real fair cost assessments before we can handwaive away which energy sources are costly and understand the variance in these types of costs, especially if we're going to live in this world where economics and utilitarianism seems to rule the world.
“Why do people always advise others to find a new job before quitting the current one?”

Dunno. I did exactly that last year. I don’t regret it. My kids weren’t worse off in any way. Within ~6 weeks I had signed up for another job with better salary.
Jefferson really did write beautifully. I’m not a US citizen, but I do find his writing to be very uplifting and inspiring.

Yes, most of what passes for innovation these days (Uber, Grubhub) are just new ways to undercut labor and are still only profitable if you can expand fast enough to get a near monopoly in your target market.
I would seriously doubt that as the intent, but I'm sure the possibility would factor into their allowing it.
Have you found a way to get build errors with GraphQL queries? I only ever get them during runtime when the request is made, I assume because that's the point at which the back-end and front-end disagree on what you're requesting.
I've been thinking this for ages.

We need more special contextual comments to change a file or scope to behave better so we can move forward and scrape away all the bad legacy of JS.
XQuery 3.1 is also XQuery for JSON

But they’re increasing pollution compared to not carrying out those bailouts.
I do like to have a drink myself (cool if you don't drink) but it really feels like alcohol has become ubiquitous in society in that many business use the margins from alcohol sales to bring up their revenue.

The older I get the more people seem entrenched in their patterns and it seems like anywhere I go alcohol is available for sale.

Company events, family places for having drinks (i.e. pubs, parks etc). It seems that alcohol is everywhere and enabling a lifestyle. Not sure how I feel about it but it certainly feels very present in society much more so than 20 years ago.

I figure part of it is the rise of the local microbrewery/distillery, local job economy to promote specialist beverages and certainly the large corporates promoting alcohol throughout society.

Counter though is that the younger generation seem to avoid alcohol from what i've heard and some of the companies are concerned about the future. Sounds like big tobacco from the 90s.
I hope you guys realize this is what almost all of you people sound like on this website.
Adding this wouldn't be backwards compatible, so it can't be done. Simple as that. It's not broken, either - it just doesn't do the thing you want.
This is actually a very valid question. Every situation is different — usually I’d agree with you, and I actually hesitated when describing the success as due to the exit. In this case, however, the exit is likely due to the ability for the combined entity to execute the original vision better than before, and it also allows us to put a dollar number on the value of a space / business that unsophisticated bystanders continue to dismiss as “not a real business” (even on this page!). That makes it a net win for the overall resale platform / circular commerce ecosystem, and makes future innovation in this space easier to finance.

A similar situation occurred with the acquisition of MySpace, which immediately boosted the value of all the other social networks at the time — the space had gone from being a bunch of “worthless websites,” to important next-gen media platforms that might crown the next emperor. Recruitment/funding/etc became a LOT easier after that.
This part is confusing to me.

I prefer this will validate our component for correct schema usage at build time.
Childhood trauma that leads to toxic stress can have epigenetic affects and dramatically increases one’s chance for many illnesses and many causes of death. It is truly stunning. This is true even for those who feel like their trauma was no big deal (heck, others had it worse, right?) if they have a high ACE score (adverse childhood experiences).

Nadine Burke Harris writes and talks about it and how a larger ACE score should be detected as part of normal health screenings for everyone because of its outsized influence on health.

See https://www.ted.com/talks/nadine_burke_harris_how_childhood_... or her book “The Deepest Well.”
But Warp Speed was more than just R&D dollars. In fact, the R&D dollars were the minor part.

A big part was the coordination between multiple government agencies, negotiation with suppliers for guaranteed volumes, throwing money at the problem when needed.

Pfizer doesn’t need money. It makes billions in profit each year. But it does need the FDA, DOD, CDC, etc all aligned and a clearly laid out path from development, to approval, to distribution and eventually administration.

The R&D is just a small part of it.
Cannot believe this is serious. The FT uses sponge bob caps now. What? I don't really care for "decentralized fact-checking" or whatever, it's just the combination of whining about the contempt that people have for journalists and then so glaringly proving how you deserve that contempt.
The goal isn’t, at least not publicly, but the methods are.

But then again, authoritarians almost never come out and say “we intend to control every aspect of our citizens lives in order to maintain power”; rather they find some convenient fig leaf to hide behind.

And such is the same with your proposal; you’re advocating for greater government control over personal lives in the name of protecting citizens from other governments. Authoritarian shit, full stop.
Forgive my ignorance but what happens during the night when there is no sun? Would the day produce enough to last throughout the night with batteries? Are there enough batteries?

I did, I didn't see anything that looks like the start of an ecommerce sales funnel. Maybe I missed it, I was just expecting something obvious. I expected the main menu (on mobile) to have some kind of inventory taxonomy. I'm well aware I'm not the target audience and it shows.
Hi, I'm Simon (Engineer at Deepnote). Thanks for the feedback!

nbdev is actually orthogonal to what we're doing, and you can use it within Deepnote! I've written a short guide on it: https://deepnote.com/@the21st/nbdev-Deepnote-MQQVcO8aQV--6rC...
What exactly is the function of a diversity head?
Ads are already opened up for everyone. I tried to promote a simple post talking for a few seconds. The system seems to auto review and it rejected the ad saying there were exaggerated claims in it.
How do you deal with error handling? I don't see anything in the docs about error handling.

How do you deal with union types? The docs seem completely scant on that.

Otherwise very interesting approach.
Assuming you're serious; Who should pay for someone to live? Houses (and utilities) don't build themselves. Judicial systems don't grow on trees. Money is merely a token representing value, intended to ensure fair compensation: value for value.

To flip this around: why should ANYONE pay for music?
I've gotten relief from hand problems from typing, cycling and other strange uses by doing push-ups.

My sports med doc told me this: if activity X is causing you pain you should cut the amount of activity X you do by 50% and if the pain doesn't get better cut it by 50% again, take some rest, if you have to.

On the way back increase your workload by 10% a week if you can do so staying pain free.

It seems agonizingly slow but it means I go from short easy hikes at the end of the Winter to getting 20,000 steps in before 8am in August.
Is there any way to see your own deleted posts, or otherwise know if your account is being used in this way?
That is technically correct if you were to consume abnormal amounts of either substance.

I have read of people dying from consuming too much water.

I have not read that of cannabis.

Are you arguing as a consumer you have no control over the products you buy or the energy sources you use? Because that’s not true.
As a pointer for further investigation: One of the big challenges of teaching coding to designers I face is the mental shift from thinking about UI as an open canvas with arbitrary geometric constraints to thinking of them as a tree structure.

When implementing bespoke interfaces I very often have to do this translation in my head. You’re right that the common case is a tree, or can easily be translated to one. But it’s not the general case.
On the contrary if I ever built a business that was worth 100 million or more I'd take far less than my share of it if it meant that I could get a clean exit and not have to stay on as an executive for a few years.

Perhaps my mentality is part of the reason why I will never build such a thing.
Nope. The only thing you need to specify is the order the YPR angles are applied (that more a convention than an assumption). In SolveSpace the assembly constraints would effectively encode the order of application.

A quick Google search even turns up a Wikipedia entry on this problem:

If you really need this problem solve I might know someone willing to do paid consulting on it.
I did not know about Pelican, thank you. My tail light just went out, the parts are very reasonable.
