>At this point, the facility is already able to produce lamb, chicken, and pork products without using genetic modification or animal serum. Future Meat says that it will soon also be able to start production on beef, too.

So, they're not producing it commercially, but they can do pork. I'd say the day is inevitable at this point.
How getting rid of minimum wage (from your original post) would reduce reliance on welfare?

Also NIMBYism manifests as a wage floor, but keeping the wrong sort of people out is the cause and money’s not gonna solve that.

Finally, from everything I’ve read UBI is already affordable. Especially when you replace welfare and the all of the bookkeeping/gate keeping costs associated with ensure not a single dollar is ever “abused”.

I am not an employee or partner of Cartesi (however, in the future I am going to be), I even tried to be hired but wasn't. I do like Cartesi to be advertised because I like that OSS project, but not so much to spend my time in marketing them. So, no, I don't advertise them by my P=NP question.
All true, but I also think it's kind of missing the point of the article a bit: which isn't that a Microsoft account is bad in itself, or even a bad default, but rather that they go out of their way to make it as hard as possible for you to opt-out of a Microsoft account as you need to play all sort of non-obvious tricks to do so. They could just have some small text with "no thanks" and a popup "you'll miss out on sync, backup, etc. are you sure?"

The objections are more abstract, as in "it's my bloody computer, allow me to do what I bloody want!" Well... Microsoft says no apparently.
That looks very promising, thank you.

Many of the design outputs of the NASA rover programs are public domain. For example, the peak solar panel rating of the MER (Opportunity and Spirit) is published, the size of the panels are known (or can easily by estimated), the power needed to drive the rovers around is published, the weight of the rover is published, the size of wheels can be easily estimated (or is published).

The logistics of sending data back can be reasonably considered to be a challenge that could be solved on the first try. The first space probe that NASA managed to actually get to Mars (Mariner) worked. The first landers that NASA managed to get to Mars (Viking) worked.
I've seen a lot of ECS implementations that store components in hash maps, keyed by entity ID. They iterate over one hash map in a linear way which is fast, but then they do a bunch of slow lookups like GP is saying.

In those situations, GP's suggestions are wise.

If you can iterate over arrays in parallel like you say, that's also a good approach.

I'd argue that the prize is mostly for identifying the question and determining constitutes a satisfactory answer. In other words, it's for the result, rather than the data.

If the interfaces are defined poorly, it can result in what you are describing.

But I've seen systems do this well and the result is something far less complex.

I agree with the author's view that good interfaces require iteration. So expect that several irrational will have incorrectly drawn boundaries and poorly defined interfaces.

This kind of design takes time, but if you expect the system but if you expect that it will need to evolve over the years, it pays for itself.
I still disagree. As a web dev, there is absolutely nothing you can do to affect the networking stack. This is all completely buried in web servers and the like. Most CDNs are complete SaaS tools where you can't anything beyond the highest-level. Everything devs do to optimize performance is at the application layer. You can observe things like latency or number of connections and change your code or infra, but you're absolutely never going to inspect a packet. Unless you're actually developing those web servers.

What Microsoft has done with Minecraft is so gross. I installed it recently after not playing for maybe a decade so I could try the RTX support, and I just had to shake my head at how packed the home screen is with micro-transactions now.

This started as a very simple, creative game for kids, and now the only way to play is to enter through the gift-shop. Minecraft was already one of the best selling games of all time. Is it really necessary to constantly expose 8 year old kids to aggressive marketing to maximize profits?

You're saying that shared memory concurrency is the future? I think you've got it completely wrong. Shared memory concurrency is the past. It was thought to be a good idea in the 80s and 90s, but we now know that it's both hard to program, and that it works poorly with highly-parallel, high-performance hardware. In the future, we'll see more and more programming systems which don't provide shared memory concurrency at all.
Wait, he’s saying there is nothing can be done? He’s actually just letting them go? As a SF resident I’d be furious. You damn well know Chesa lives somewhere he doesn’t deal with the ramifications.

Since Chesa is under a recall campaign there is a concerted social media effort to defend him on places like Twitter.

Look up the efforts to discredit Dion Lim who has done stories about the Asian American victims of crimes committed by career criminals who were released by Chesa.
SF is a highly compartmentalized city. If you walk through some areas to go to work, you see it. If you live just 400m away, you may never. That actually may possibly be part of the problem.
Thanks, this is an excellent example.

You could actually call this a symbiotic lock-in. I once read an excellent post on how SEO (despite being a gray area for search engines) entrenches Google's market share because many SEO practitioners specialize in it.

If your ecosystem has become so specialized that most well-adapted users are bots, you have a problem (or not, if you can monetize bots).
Isn't this more or less the idea behind Gentoo ?

I know that when I initially started setting my system up, it was a bit of a mess trying to figure out what USE flags I needed/etc., but once it stabilized, it was great to know that I had a system that worked and there was no trace of software or libraries I didn't want or need.

It definitely is a bit more legwork to do up-front, but I feel like the idea of "this is what I want, please build only to that spec" has saved me a bit of heartache as I've been using my system and while the leanness doesn't matter per se, it feels like it's helping my system be a bit more organized.

Worst, but not nearly the only. This kind of partitioning describes the vast majority of new projects that I encounter and have an interest in helping. Most ironic are those projects that simultaneously purport to have a mission for human rights and freedom.
It looks from the other discussions that it's specifically content-addressed, not "semantic-addressed", so if your code has any redundant syntax (the given example being `x -> x + 2` vs `x -> x + 1 + 1`) it's still distinct.

In that case, I guess data types can have a 0-size marker member, kind of like Rust's `PhantomData` type, that could ensure distinctness.

Oh, no. I use it all the time, for code components.

If you look at my portfolio[0], you’ll see it packed with things like widgets and adornments. Most of these, I use in my own projects. I eat my own dog food.

But today’s languages, with their reliance on extensibility and interfaces, makes writing standalone code assets a lot less cumbersome. I write in Swift, and there are some pretty big Swift "extension suites" out there[1]. The Apple Swift Package Manager is nice, too[2].

It's just that when I write a code module, I do it as a standalone product, with a full test suite (usually a harness[3], which often takes the form of a "full-fat" application), and a unique release management cycle.

My modules are pretty independent, so they aren't usually custom-tailored for all of their implementations; acting in a fairly general capacity.

Indeed. There was a great article in the FT on this looming battle recently:

> Human society, the historian Niall Ferguson says, oscillates between the dynamic of a metaphorical “tower” and the “square”. Sometimes institutions or leaders control social groups in hierarchical ways, just as church towers overshadowed medieval European cities.

> At other times, horizontal networks shape events, operating like crowds in ancient city squares. The “square” used to work best in small, face-to-face groups, but digitisation now enables peer-to-peer systems to operate on a massive scale.

> Now, however, a “tower” dynamic is entering the frame. On Wednesday, the Bank for International Settlements (the central bankers’ bank that, in a delicious irony, occupies an actual black tower in Basel) issued a striking report that lashed out at the “square”.

The parent poster is literally seething with hatred.

If that doesn't deserve a downvote on HN, regardless of your political views, I don't know what does.

We've also seen many times that hatred against women in online forums has led to acts of violence against women in real life.

That also deserves to be called out and condemned, regardless of one's politics.
This incessant and inaccurate campaign against Chesa Boudin is unreal. Go do your research and you aren't an SF resident.

Yes, it's accurate. It's just repeating the same thing you've been told for decades, in different terms. It's a different calculation for the same temperature and radiation data they were already gathering.

They haven't just been telling you the CO2 levels. They've also been telling you the temperature, which are around .5C/1F over the long-term average.

Increasing temperature and increasing energy imbalance are one and the same thing. Trap more energy, get more temperature: it's the same Q=(delta T)mc you learned in high school chemistry.

It's just that we know that increasing CO2 is the reason for it, and it's the thing we can do something about.

It’s completely different. Let’s start with the moon has no atmosphere so you do not use parachutes to land on the moon like you do on Mars.

Your statement is nonsense.
It depends on where you live and how much you bicycle.

133ft @ 11% is a speed bump to most competitive or avid amateur cyclists. Where I live 1000ft of climbing per hour would be "hilly" but not mountainous. In mountainous regions you can very easily go on rides requiring climbing > 10,000ft over the course of a 3-5 hour ride.

It is actually common to have bicycle races at car race tracks, I've done it. But on one of these F1 courses you'd race many many laps of the track and the officials would pull anyone out of the race if they fall behind to avoid anyone getting lapped and causing safety issues.

If you ride that 133ft hill on the race track 10-30x in the course of a race then it starts to be annoying as there is going to be someone who attacks up the hill every lap, and if you fall off the back on the hill you'd stand a good chance of not catching up and being pulled from the race. A typical road race would have the lower categories doing around 8 laps of a track like COTA to get to a 25 mile race and the upper classes would be doing 30ish to get to a race closer to 100 miles.
The rideshare driver has a similar predicament as a traditional pizza delivery driver. Expenses for providing the service are outsourced to the employee. The employee probably has only a vague, incorrect notion what their actual income is.

It's unfair because the companies take advantage of the fact the worker probably does not, or even can not, understand how much income they take home.

My partner delivered pizzas for years. We bought them a newer car for safety. They drove it to death for the giant pizza chain. Carrying their own non-commercial vehicle insurance which really wouldn't cover them for commercial use. Paid personal health insurance on the ACA marketplace. Bought their own gas. The restaurant had a shady scheme to keep a portion of their credit card tips in many situations, by adjusting their hourly pay down when they had good tips.

It was quite a battle for my partner to grasp how our family was paying to deliver pizzas, instead of getting paid for it. After work they were too exhausted to keep enough records and do spreadsheets to find their actual P&L. They had just done this job forever, invisibly outsourcing the company's operating costs into their own households.

Friends who have driven rideshare have had similar experiences. They get baited in by the illusion of income, and maybe make good money at first under incentive programs. Then the rideshare company cancels or reduces incentives, changes prices, in non obvious ways, they're stuck with the same expenses but lower, unpredictable income, subject to the latest project manager trying to optimize profit away from the driver.
PoS is far from being perfect and has it's own sets of issues (ex: rich gets richer, hackers that end up getting large sums of coin now also have control over the network, custodians also have large control, etc).

> Forget Bitcoin, Lightning Network was announced years ago and it's still far from being used in production.

It is being used in production with growing adoption (1ml.com) and it is what they are using in El Salvador.

> Since developers of Bitcoin are extremely conservative and censoring

It's a decentralized network where nobody controls it, developers can't push changes willy-nilly. Bitcoin isn't trying to be everything to everyone and that's ok. You can have other layers and projects which enable these fast moving ideas (most of them are going to be deprecated sooner or later because they'll turn out to be bad ideas anyways). Once these projects prove it works, Bitcoin can incorporate them. Most of these projects that are faster sacrifice decentralization to a certain extent and if we didn't care about decentralization, then why even bother with crypto, we already have Paypal/Visa/etc.
I don't fully buy this argument. The bloat we see in many systems ends up slowing down development in the long run.

Well defined interfaces and good composition support the goals of the author of lean software.

They also happen to improve developer comprehension and reusability, both of which speed up software development in the long run.
