> CO2 levels vary by season, lowest in spring, highest in fall.

Read the article. Look at the chart. The seasonal fluctuations are much, much less significant than the rising trend.

> Cause plants breath it in during sprint and exhale it out in fall (I don't remember if this is correct, or just my own misguided idea).

Plants absorb CO2 to grow, making leaves, branches, plant material and whatnot. In the fall, leaves fall off trees, grasses die, and are metabolized by fungi and bacteria, releasing CO2.
The University of Waikato, New Zealand has had a lot of research going on to use compression for named entity tagging (name, location, date, person, ...) etc.

While it's not the best-performing paradigm for text sequence tagging, it is intellectually intriguing as you say because of the parallel between the concepts "compression" and "understanding", even in the human brain. If we can't understand s.th., we need to memorize it; if we understand it, it doesn't need much space or cognitive load at all, basically a name that is well-linked to other concepts.
Internet is a utility. Google/Facebook is not. It’s like water is utility but having ice delivered to you is a service not a utility.
I'm surprised I haven't seen much in the responses to this comment that the issue isn't so much that consumers have other options (though given how high Google's search reach is, how relevant is that if hardly anyone does), it's that for most businesses your option is either have a strong search presence on Google or go out of business. There is just no viable path to avoid Google as a business when they control 80+ percent of search market share.

And you not only need to play the SEO game, you have to pray that Google just doesn't decide to get into your business and start returning their own results instead (which is exactly what this lawsuit is about). Especially since Google has had the chance to suck up all the data that you've provided in optimizing your site to provide the most relevant results.
because it's remotely updateable, and an analogue meter cannot measure apparent power (when the power returns to the grid the wheel would spin in the other direction)
> "There was a void that was created by a lack of these encrypted platforms," Shivers said, of the initial move to take down apps previously used by gangs. "So that created an opportunity for collaboration with our international partners, to not only develop the specific tool but also to develop the process of gathering the intelligence and disseminating the intelligence."

What void? Aren't there a ton of encrypted solutions right now?

They could fly low: the tech isn't fully there yet but skydio drones show the potential.
They have a gigantic strategic oil reserve (it has its own Wiki page!), and I would assume the same for food as well. I'm sure that Pakistan and especially Russia would be happy to help with them as imports as well, maybe not as much as they use in a given year, but enough to help out.

Most of the simulations for a naval war around Taiwan predict that it would be over in a few days, maybe weeks, but not long enough to really draw down those reserves.

Most importantly, it's really not realistic that the US Navy could prevent the rest of planet Earth from providing goods to the world's largest trading nation. Our navy isn't big enough, for one thing, but the economic damage to every other country that imports into China makes this blockade idea pretty unrealistic. I can't even imagine how much inflation would spike when the world's factory can't export for a few weeks

I have been thinking about this and related things for a long time now, while I haven't quite got the hang of putting it all together into words, this is my take on the current subject:

Humans have a need for a certain kind of emotional high, that in whatever way, people find a source. Some people find it in competition, drugs, sex, music, art, creation, fear, ... there's probably a whole taxonomy in there.

One of the ways people find it is in social displays of moral superiority. People hated this about organized religions and left in droves, and yet here we are with the exact same behavior.

There probably was a very valid evolutionary reason why this is so prevalent in humans, but like most things that make us feel good, uncontrolled they get taken to terrible extremes.

The point is recognizing that this behavior is a need finding a source of stimulation. If you want to fix it you have to find better sources for that feeling and recognize what is happening... and distribute that recognition into the public consciousness.
So they shouldn't fund adding local weather to task bar while there are potential security flaws anywhere in the OS? This seems like a sillier straw man.
It's relatively simple and easy to change your default search engine and/or type in a different url, in fact, it quite literally costs you $0 (as in - it doesn't cost you any more to use ddg over google), so digging a well, and the further cost of routing your pipes to pull from that underground water is infinitely more expensive to do. This is the principle behind utility companies being regulated: it's insanely expensive to do the alternative of using that utility company. Now, Apple and Google (in terms of Android) might need to be considered some sort of public utility (eg. providing an app store) since it would cost competitors tens of billions of dollars to match the existing ecosystem, but Google Search is far from being considered a utility.
How Did the Feds Seize the Colonial Pipeline Ransomware Bitcoins?
The consolidation is an illusion caused by not seeking out and/or encountering new competitors. Once there was Adobe plus some small-time company you were fond of. Then Adobe bought that small company. So now you think that only Adobe remains. Guess what? Some other company has taken up the slack, filling the niche left behind by that other small-time company. You just have to go find it.
We can also argue that a cat doesn't know what a cat is.

Humans believe they know what the human definition of cat is, but that doesn't mean there's a definitive ideal definition of cat that humans have privileged access to.

Some cats - like Schrodinger's Cat, and this cat - aren't cats at all. They're rhetorical devices about cats.

Which is convenient, because they don't need food or a litter box. (Although they can be messy in other ways.)

The point being that even a supposedly simple concept like "cat" is much more than the sum of some nominal properties and actions which are easy to enumerate. ("Has four legs, purrs.")

Both the ML and human "definition" of cat - which is more like an open list of weighted cat-related experiences - is much closer to defining what a cat is than the intersection of all the properties that supposedly define a cat completely.

In other words Plato was absolutely wrong. There are no Platonic ideal forms. (Even if there were - where would they live?)

There are only probability density fields in qualia space. And when there's enough qualia density in one location you can start to suspect that you're interacting with a cat/chair/philosopher/ML researcher/whatever, and then draw on your behavioural model of each object to predict what will happen as you continue to interact with it.
I pretty sure that you completely missed the point of the comment. - Woosh.

He wasn't arguing that building your own toilet is a good option - just that it exists as an option.

And the fact of options merely existing, doesn't automatically exclude something from being recognized as a utility.
I think it comes down to how intelligent, honest, diligent, and conscientious someone is that they would explore the meta-implications of their impact, actions, thoughts, behaviors, feelings, and intentions. People who are sociopathic, psychopathic, less astute, and/or clueless don't care as much about their philosophical framework, their actions, improving themselves (their attitudes, beliefs, knowledge, wisdom, etc.) through careful self-reflection, or who they impact.

Unless by "loves to print photos" you mean that she wants to have complete control of the workflow from her calibrated monitor to profiled specialty papers, she's better off using a good printing service (I suggest c-prints made on photosensitive paper with Lightjet or Durst Lambda machines to most people) rather than exploring the expensive and time consuming rabbit hole of serious home printing.

The government decided that phone numbers are important enough to create regulations that allow phone number portability between carriers.

Email addresses need the same regulation. The arguments that lead to phone number portability apply to email addresses as well. And I would argue that email addresses are even more important than phone numbers at this point (it's the single key to all online accounts, most bills, documents, statements are emailed as PDFs, a lot of government services expect a working email address).

Email addresses have become critical and portability needs to become a requirement for all email services. There are technical issues, for example if someone cancels Gmail service, how can the @gmail.com address be moved elsewhere? It's not as simple as phone number portability. Maybe a regulation that any email service must provide forwarding service to another email address even if the service is no longer active? Or maybe a trusted mapping that exists outside any single service, kind of like a DNS for email addresses.

> Depends on how that capability is setup, I imagine. "We have remotely operated mines at a 5nm radius and HMGs for close-in anti-boat defence" would be enough to deter anyone without anti-ship missiles, but still more than enough to kill a modern warship that comes too close. (Modern warships are generally not stupid enough to sail into hostile mines, however)

That doesn't make sense. A modern warship would have anti-ship missiles or aircraft with ranges far greater than 5nm that could fly right over those mines.

Also, such a defense doesn't protect against a blockade, which would allow the seastead to be defeated without firing a shot. I'd imagine pretty much all conceivable implementations would be utterly dependent on trade for basic and not-so-basic supplies. Another threat: a commandeered supply ship loaded up with hostile marines and law enforcement.
They got the developer facing API just right making containers accessible but their promised plugin architecture never did come.

There was an arms race between them and the community to lead the story on new functionality. For example flannel came out first before docker acquihired SocketPlane for networking, while Calico was also in the works.

There was pressure from the community for a stable plugin API to allow for external contribution, but I imagine that it was ultimately against their best interest
Send a certified letter to the address/HR with what you said in the email. If nothing happens in the time frame its your equipment.

Much of the testing is due to refining designs to make them more efficient, smaller, and lighter. If the Ukraine decided to build a bomb that wasn't state of the art they could be reasonably assured that it would work, but substantially less clear on final yield.

Yield only really matters in theory and for planning MAD. Tank divisions are equally destroyed with a 100 kiloton device as a 10 megaton device.

> Their wealth derives from the skyrocketing value of their assets, like stock and property. Those gains are not defined by U.S. laws as taxable income unless and until the billionaires sell.

Taxing assets seems like it could be bad for the 99%, for example taxing people out of their homes and eating up their savings and retirement assets.

It's reminiscent of how "financial aid" tacitly assumes that one's parents should simply sell their house and then give the money to the university.
Language comprehension is a two way street. If someone thinks comprehension is a passive activity, then they're likely not fully comprehending. Comprehension requires active engagement.

When you're learning another language, there'll be countless times where you're like "ohhhh, I understand this." Then the moment you open your mouth, you'll get pretty directly told, "No, you completely misunderstood." You'll also encounter people who immediately correct your mistakes when speaking, whether they're grammatical or misusages of words.

As an example that people here might better grasp, learning a language without speaking is like learning a programming language without writing your own code. You might generally recognize the syntax and usage of various functions, but you won't truly grasp it and understand its nuances until you sit down, write, and accept that you'll make mistakes and identify them.

Secret Benefits of Eating Raw Garlic in Empty Stomach
> Each interceptor missile costs between $70,000–100,000, and an Iron Dome battery costs 50 Million. The Iron Domes effectiveness is ranged between 80-90%, which is literally unprecedented for an AD system. The standard rockets fired by Hamas and Hezbollah cost around 400-800 US Dollar per piece.

The effectiveness figure comes from the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) and has never been independently verified (the same goes for the other figures - even the guesstimates about what Hamas and Hezbollah rockets cost to manufacture). The IDF purports to measure successful intercepts per attempt. That is, if Hamas fires 20 rockets and Israel fires 10 interceptor missiles that destroys 9 rockets, then the calculated effectiveness is 90%. Despite the fact that 55% of the rockets fired were not destroyed.

According to the IDF, the ID only intercepts missiles headed towards built-up areas. And, also according to the IDF, Hamas fired some 4 500 rockets in the latest conflict of which 1 500 were headed towards built-up areas (the rest missed their targets). Of these the IDF claims that the ID shot down 90%. It's quite a lot and there are reason to believe that the statistic is BS. Primarily because relatively many Israelis were killed. This time Hamas killed 11 Israelis using about 4 500 rockets but during the 2014 war, it only killed 6 using roughly the same number of rockets. One would expect the number of casualties to decrease - not increase. Either Hamas is finding ways to mitigate the ID or the ID isn't very effective or both.

I have been thinking about these concepts in a person app. The primary point of collaboration in this personal app is the file system in real time. The framework I settled on for this problem is a security model.

In this app there are two types of agents: personal devices and users. Collaboration between devices is unrestricted because they are only physically separated segments of the same single user. Collaboration between users requires a share which is a segment of availability. By default a share is read only. Device identity is not exposed to other users so a separate user will have no idea they are collaborating across different computers if they are owned by the same user.

I have not written undo for the file system yet though. A requested feature is file/directory synchronization and I am considering adding desktop/camera video sharing.

It sounds like your biggest complaint is that there's no clear roadmap for the SDK/devkit that people could use to get into game development, and no clear plans for an app store or some other way for devs to then publish their games. This makes you wonder how they're going to build up their game dev ecosystem.

What I gather from the website is that they're coming at it differently: inviting a hand-picked group of game devs (both experienced and new) and heavily curating their products into weekly releases. Rather than showing players a giant app store that is mostly filled with crap, you get 2-6 high quality games per month that silently show up on your system.

It's a different approach for sure, and to me it's well worth the price to see if they can pull it off.

I live in Israel and I'm not aware of any disproportionate response since Ariel Sharon times (but even then they were very limited, one-off cases).

The Israeli government just putting a show for the international media and for the Israeli civilians. They have to show that they're doing at least something, like bombing sand dunes and empty buildings.

And Iron Dome is the main enabler for this show.

I switched from Altium (CircuitStudio) to Fusion 360 and never looked back. Actually Altium has a very intuitive UI/UX, but the bugs were starting to annoy me.

Then the auto-routing feature (a sad necessity for retrocomputing enthusiasts who need to route dozens of signals at once) started generating really obvious short-circuits. Rarely if ever do Altium staff descend on the forum and chime in.

At some point they may have paid taxes on that $2B asset distribution, but of course they still have it, so maybe they took out a $1B loan to pay the IRS. Now they sell the asset, and they are lucky that it fetches $1B, enough to pay the loan. Now they have $0, and a huge sigh of relief. Could have been much worse.

So you see, a lot of these equity-based billionaires would owe more than they have without these 'loopholes', and some obviously not much with them.
