cocaine was cheap and easy available a century+ ago (for example the original Coca-Cola was an over-the-counter headache treating mix which contained alcohol and cocaine). Didn't lead to much positive impact. (Note: i'm for full unlimited legalization, though not because it is that good, it is just that 1.the adults have the right to practice Darwin theories and 2.the Prohibition is really bad)
I don't understand how, with the cost associated with re-opening and operating the plant, the cost of purchasing the rigs, the cost of paying to offset their carbon emissions, the cost of the gas, etc., this can be profitable? Or is it a bet that Bitcoin is going to rise? That seems incredibly risky, even in the crypto space.

20 mg citalopram (celexa) 1 per day. I never want to go back; that was a dark, dark place. If I stop taking it for a few days (lazy and forgetful) my inner monologue gets dark and obsessive.

This is the unfortunate thing about giving a beach a deep clean. Now you start to see it everywhere.

It can also be under the sand.

I once spent a morning cleaning ~50 plastic bags in the wet sand of the beach at low tide. They were empty shopping bags, but had opened up and filled with sand, so they were basketball-sized and really deep; they required _digging_ every single one to get them out. Next day, 50 more were there. There was no way that many washed up in one night. So I did a little digging with a spade, as deep as I could go in the sand, all the way down to my armpit. And I brought up piece after piece of plastic from the depths, punching through bags on the way down; I don't know how many layers deep. Then I realized these "new" 50 bags had just been there under the surface. The layer of sand made free by yesterday's cleanup was now washed away by the tide to reveal them. That was just the worst feeling, knowing that that beach was basically a 1km-long landfill, riddled with garbage at least a meter deep. An extreme example, but it kind of broke me.

I don't think SpaceX would be as strong if not that early NASA funding. "SpaceX contracted with the US government for a portion of the development funding for the Falcon 9 launch vehicle, which uses a modified version of the Merlin rocket engine." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_SpaceX

So by your thinking, they could have only invested in old-school-reliable-expensive rocket companies, because less risk is involved...

So funding a space company that doesn't yet have required capability but can be helped to get there - is not dumb.

The statistics I posted make a reasonable attempt to quantify consumption based emissions. If you have a better source I’d be interested in seeing it.

Just stating dollar based household consumption values seems like a very poor proxy though. It assumes each dollar of consumption is equally emissions intensive and ignores non-household consumption.

More fundamentally though shifting accounting for emissions to place of consumption absolves China of responsibility for its own industrial development choices.

China is free to have lose (or laxly enforced) emissions standards to make its industry more competitive. For example China’s free to produce huge amounts of steel in inefficient blast furnaces instead of using more efficient, more expensive methods.

According to consumption accounting all the responsibility for those emissions falls on the countries consuming those goods, even if they might not have ever wanted their industry to be undercut by cheap imports. It assumes that all the benefits of the CO2 emissions accumulate with the country consuming the goods, not the country producing the goods.

According to the most obvious metric (territorial emissions) China’s per capita are significantly higher than Europe but trail those of the US.
Why only carbon, why not tax any polluters?
A very large bitcoin mining facility [0] in upstate NY is in an old Alcoa smelter and is powered by a hydropower dam. [1]

The original factory was built to take advantage of the power from the dam. The dam needs a constant draw of power in order to maintain it and smelting potlines were perfect for this.

Today, transmitting the electricity further would be too cost prohibitive due to the remote location. In this case, bitcoin is less polluting energy arbitrage than aluminum smelting.

This depends on what's being learned and the scope of it. We don't start teaching kindergardeners math by diving into linear algebra.

SerenityOS Update (July 2021)
Of course. Internalize the cost of cleanup to the price of everything.

We'll all have to make due with consuming a lot less if we actually paid for the cost of our wasteful and destructive first world lifestyles.
I don't think there is a realistic way to make that comparison.

For consideration, our brains start with architecture and connections that have evolved over a billion years (give or take) of training. Then we are exposed to a lifetime of embodied experience coming in through 5 (give or take) senses.

ML is picking out different things, but it's not obvious to me that models are actually getting more data then we have been trained on. Certainly GPT has seen more text, but I don't think that comparing that to a person's training is any more meaningful than saying we'll each encounter tens of thousands of hours of HD video during our training.
Well scientists don’t just rely on them. They would use them as just part of the puzzle. Do we known the mechanism, can we do causal animal experiments and then is there a correlation in humans.

Usually Study & Practice in parallel

Different skills will require a different blend. Learning a new snowboarding trick is going to be far more practice than study, where as learning how to store your bitcoin safely will be almost entirely study.

Study

1. Find the experts (this isn't always the most popular person in the field, but that's where I start)

2. Find books, blog posts, and courses

3. Read, and study them, and take notes while you do of all the important points

4. Transform notes in Anki cards

5. Study anki cards

Practice

1. Figure how the best way to get quick feedback on your skill. (this would be running a cold email campaign, practice the snowboarding trick)

2. Set a schedule to practice, then practice
One neat thing about bitcoin is that we can estimate transactions and related energy usage.

Try that with global finance.

updated: for clarity.
Nice! I guess I've got to face ASTs again:)
Too bad that bitcoin can't actually be used as money at the grocery store, to purchase a car, to buy fertilizer, or in any of a billion other ways that money can be used.
Hackers leak full EA data after failed extortion attempt
In Rust, that's not true at all. The aliasing information flows out of the type system, which you control. If a reference is marked mutable, the compiler is free to treat it as unaliased, and an unrelated change elsewhere cannot change that.
I understand what it is. I hate it because it's literally wasting more electricity than some countries for no reason and has also led to ridiculous demand for GPUs making them near impossible to source at MSRP.

The collateral damage is part of a function that determines if a war is moral. Imagine a scale between zero collateral damage and complete collateral damage. Being able to selectively assassinate our exact enemies on one end and unlimited nuclear or biological war on the other end.

There are possible wars that would only be moral if, and only if, we could ensure some level of collateral damage or less. Perhaps it would be moral to wage war over X, but only if we could guarantee there would be no collateral damage. Conversely, if some country of psychopaths were doing some unspeakably horrible thing Y then it may be moral to stop them even if stopping them would require us to kill them to the last man, woman, and child. We would need very different casus belli to justify a moral war depending, in part, on the amount of collateral damage prosecuting that war would cause.
The set of such platforms that one might start a new project for is very limited. Maybe, flight computer in a Boeing 737 variant? Betting that has no C compiler. 8051?

The BSDs have supported C++ user-space programs for long enough that "just working" should be well within range.

A new project involving a BSD or Linux kernel subsystem, or PostgreSQL or SQLite component, is a plausible interpretation, where C++ is actually forbidden for wholly non-technical reasons.

Don’t buy the ‘big data’ hype, says cofounder of Google Brain
> 1885...Two eggs, fried or boiled, accompanied by the invariable boiled potato, fetch from 10 to 15 cents; steak 15 cents; sirloin, 25 cents; plain omelet, 25 cents;

10c for two fried eggs, but 25c for a plain omelet? Did omelet mean something other other than eggs back then? Or is it that "omelet" implies cooked fresh, while boiled and fried eggs are cooked in bulk and served cold?
The hyperinflation happened, yes, but the point is that once it stabilised "pre-1991 notes and subsequent forgeries were treated as the same currency."

I'm not attempting to say this was a good situation, only that it has interesting implications for "what is a currency" as a question.

Can you google things? Do me and youself a favor and google "the scarcity principle"

I guess some schools of economic thought do claim such nonsense. Maybe you should have a word with them.

But wait there is more:
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/scarce

scarce: deficient in quantity or number compared with the demand : not plentiful or abundant

Wow, who would have guessed it's in the actual definition of the word?
That’s not how power grids work. It’s only economically viable to build many forms of green energy if you have a constant baseline consumer, so you rarely or never have to turn off the power plant, and you don’t waste money if you over-allocate enough to meet demand during low production periods (like for wind). Bitcoin is unique in that it provides a constant demand at a particular price.
Do I think or predict?

Not the OP but in my European country a number of the pictures of women appear oddly "American" in style. Especially when there are indicators like foreign products or foreign electrical sockets in the background. Although those might be in fact catfishing profiles. For me personally, Tinder has been hardly more than an exercise in frustration and disappointment in my fellow humans.
That's not completely true.

Off chain transactions, whether thinks like lightning network or centralized exchanges, make it very difficult to actually know how much value transfer is happening. As the network scales up, these kinds of transactions will increasingly make up a greater percentage of all value transfer, while easily measurable base chain settlement transactions will be a minority.

Urine is cleaned by the kidneys. Surgeons drain the urethra directly into the body during kidney surgery because it's antiseptic. So urine is not gross or dirty.

From Plato's Republic, Book Two:

(...)Yes, I said, now I understand: the question which you would have me consider is, not only how a State, but how a luxurious State is created; and possibly there is no harm in this, for in such a State we shall be more likely to see how justice and injustice originate. In my opinion the true and healthy constitution of the State is the one which I have described. But if you wish also to see a State at fever-heat, I have no objection. For I suspect that many will not be satisfied with the simpler way of life. They will be for adding sofas, and tables, and other furniture; also dainties, and perfumes, and incense, and courtesans, and cakes, all these not of one sort only, but in every variety; we must go beyond the necessaries of which I was at first speaking, such as houses, and clothes, and shoes: the arts of the painter and the embroiderer will have to be set in motion, and gold and ivory and all sorts of materials must be procured.

True, he said.

Then we must enlarge our borders; for the original healthy State is no longer sufficient. Now will the city have to fill and swell with a multitude of callings which are not required by any natural want; such as the whole tribe of hunters and actors, of whom one large class have to do with forms and colours; another will be the votaries of music—poets and their attendant train of rhapsodists, players, dancers, contractors; also makers of divers kinds of articles, including women's dresses. And we shall want more servants. Will not tutors be also in request, and nurses wet and dry, tirewomen and barbers, as well as confectioners and cooks; and swineherds, too, who were not needed and therefore had no place in the former edition of our State, but are needed now? They must not be forgotten: and there will be animals of many other kinds, if people eat them.

Certainly.

And living in this way we shall have much greater need of physicians than before?

Much greater.

And the country which was enough to support the original inhabitants will be too small now, and not enough?

Quite true.

Then a slice of our neighbours' land will be wanted by us for pasture and tillage, and they will want a slice of ours, if, like ourselves, they exceed the limit of necessity, and give themselves up to the unlimited accumulation of wealth?

That, Socrates, will be inevitable.

And so we shall go to war, Glaucon. Shall we not?

Most certainly, he replied.

Then without determining as yet whether war does good or harm, thus much we may affirm, that now we have discovered war to be derived from causes which are also the causes of almost all the evils in States, private as well as public.(...)
I apparently never paid enough attention to how in the spec there's a clear defined list and I always assumed that a "parser" should handle all valid header*ish looking pairs.

Based on this consideration I was thinking that the ragel state machine would generate faster code for the non happy path (invalid non-ascii, or other types of error) at least in the GOTO version.

When working on the full list it makes perfect sense to check the minimum amount of bytes for identifying headers, so thank you for the clarifications, very informative. :)
Proof-of-work blockchains were necessary to bootstrap proof-of-stake chains. Proof-of-stake is necessary to scale blockchains. It’s a relatively small, temporary price to birth a revolutionary technology.

Utilities are incredibly constrained in how much power they can generate, where they can send it to, at what times, and how quickly they can adjust these parameters. Bitcoin mining, as a reliable but highly flexible consumer at a reasonable price, actually makes operating a grid way easier and makes the use of slow-to-react (like nuclear) or unreliable (solar, wind) power generation much more feasible.

No it’s waste in the same way there is waste heat generated by nuclear reactors even though 100% of the useful energy was initially heat.

Not my theory. I didn't initially suggest it, I don't believe it, I don't even like it. I certainly made no demands. A hypothesis doesn't require evidence. Others have made some strong points toward falsifying the hypothesis elsewhere in the thread.

It really seems to me that you're eager to bicker with someone who is actually credulous of this theory and didn't find any, so you decided to lash out and distort statements from a person who suggests we refine our falsification of the hypothesis a little further than just saying "I mean, come on"

Those are all ways to squander the Earth's limited resources while sounding forward thinking. Colonizing Mars will likely never happen, there is simply no upside: huge challenges, with no interesting resources. The Earth has plenty of space, we're limited by resources, and there are no interesting resources on Mars. I wouldn't be surprised to find out that we'll have a colony outside the solar system before a colony on Mars.

Asteroid mining is more plausible, but still extremely unlikely given our current technology. There are massive hurdles, and few things that would massively improve life on Earth - it's much more interesting from a profit perspective than a future of humanity perspective.
Would be interesting to compare those values to typical wages of the time.
