The optimal and frankly only solution would be the close the coal plant. Arguing that alternative solutions are not "optimal" while continuing burning coal is directly harmful to the environment, green politics and human health.

The first step would be the set a definitive date when the coal plant will get demolished. Once that is done, people can continue to debating what optimal alternative should be constructed but if the date come and there is nothing built then what people get is no power, and the blame then goes to those who refused to build new power plants when they knew ahead that the coal plant is getting demolished.
Forbes's UI is infuriating.
No, that's do your job, and do it right.
It's weird. The exact same problem affects to-do apps and note taking apps. I'm pretty sure it was a HN post I recently read where the problem of to-do apps was discussed. People go through phases: discover an app, start with a clean slate, get a better night's sleep because you get to write down all the things you're definitely going to do, work your way through x% of the list, gradually accumulate a list of things you shamefully failed to do, and eventually getting thoroughly depressed with the app and stop using it (or nuke the list every few months). Browser tabs are just another to-do list. So are those kitchen drawers, garden shed workbenches with half finished projects on them, tech books you insist that you'll read, and Udemy courses you bought in a sale and never used. These things all remind me of the 90 year old man who lives half a mile from my house, who has two beautiful old cars in his garage. One is an Austen A30, the other a '65 Jaguar S-Type. Both sit quietly rusting under disintegrated tarps. I'm sure he must have had dreams of fully renovating them when he bought them 30 years ago, but he knows that when he dies they'll end up as scrap, or maybe as some other retired gentleman's project that'll never get completed, and whenever he sees them, I'm sure it eats away at him, like the rust eats his cars.

Nothing can outpace photons (in vacuum, that is - in a medium, cf Cherenkov radiation). However, velocity is a surprisingly tricky concept. While the relative velocity of two objects passing each other by is well-defined, velocity at a distance tends to require a clock synchronization convention, which is to some degree arbitrary. In consequence, in special relativity, the speed of light is only isotropic by convention (cf various discussions about the one-way speed of light, which became a topic of online conversations due to Veritasium posting a video about it), and in general relativity, recession velocities (ie change in proper distance at constant cosmological time) of far away, but still observable galaxy can in fact formally be greater than c.
One notable example would be the undergraduate Beginner’s Course in Topology - Geometric Chapters by Rokhlin et al. (Some “beginner” one must be, to be able to read it.)
I think this would be a more credible concern if American teachers were equally empowered to their counterparts. To a large extent what you see out of 'foreign' students is a product of teacher's having adequate power to manage their classrooms while teaching students to standards. Meanwhile in America teacher's are shackled by their things like No Child Left Behind and a union that tolerates faculty getting physically assaulted. You don't see these things being corrected because standards and discipline have been branded as racist.

> I don't remember URLs with /some/post/id/123.html. I remember headlines

When I open a new window[1] in Firefox and start typing in the address bar, I get matches based on the page title not just on the url.

For example, I open a new window and type "brow" and the matches I get include "I closed a lot of browser tabs | Hacker News" (see image[2].)

So I rarely if ever use bookmarks, I can almost always find what I'm looking for by typing in the url bar, or if that fails by searching in history.

1: Are you seated? Good. I don't use tabs, I just open new windows with ctrl-n and use alt-tab & ctrl-w to navigate. I have middle-click set to open in a new window. I use customise to put the "open new window" icon onto my buttons, next to the address bar. I would happily use a version of firefox with no tabs, they add nothing to my life.

I wonder how one would go about making such machine that would work in zero gravity. Without friction, something else would have to convert part of the wind force to propeller torque. Maybe small turbines could be added that would spin according to apparent wind (forward or backward) and spin the propeller to generate additional lift.
That's interesting -- my experience has been 180° away. I agree that recent features have added complexity and made the barriers for newcomers a little higher, though.

At its core, however, everything just 'clicked', the templating works beautifully, and single-file-components are superb. I'll write React and Ember when necessary, but coming back to Vue is always a welcome relief.

I've lost count of the number of times I decided to start off writing what felt 'right' intuitively, and found things just worked first time. In that sense at least, there are echoes of Rails for me.

This does not jive with my encounters with people who went to school in the 50s/60s.

This generalises human behaviour too far. Not everyone does this.

I actually prefer delayed gratification, and will eat my least favourite items on my dinner plate first, so that I might savour the best at the end.

And applying this thinking everything means that your entire code is pervaded with slowness with no obvious hot spots, and you jump with joy since it obviously means that your code is as efficient as it possibly could be (because otherwise the profiler will show some peaks, right?).
It intuitively seems to me like "what it means for x" is not clearly one or the other, ontic or ontological. At a kind of indirect approach, the ambiguity whether we are actually investigating something ontically or ontologically is kind of a problem for the ontic approach... are we picking out Natural Kinds, or are they just the categories with the greatest utility and/or intelligibility to us?

Anyways, MH says 'so if we should reserve that term "ontology" for that theoretical inquiry which is explicitly devoted to the meaning of entities' (page 12 of the German edition). Wouldn't the meaning of being, as one of those theoretical entities, be an ontological question? Ontic being, on the other hand, would be ontic man, or the subject of the sciences? It could also be presence in the Derridean sense, but that is not really meaningful in the ontic register, since negation necessitates a Being...

I am not really a Heidegger guy so I would love some insight here.

I already sent some money in that direction and will be happy to send more.

I will also be happy to test it (commit to 1-2 hours or maybe more pr week of actual following-a-plan testing not just "using it and see if it works" for a few weeks) but I am afraid I can't learn enough Rust to be helpful at the moment (small kids and a full time job).
That's not what 'A' means in this case. A means you scored over 85% (or whatever the number is) on your course work plus final exams. There is no reason why, in theory, every student sitting the exam couldn't get an A.
The core theory, that abstract reasoning and deeper understanding should be introduced as early as possible is marvelous.

But I'm over the idea of hammering kids with homework... This is in addition to their school workload.

Users who write Rust code don’t necessarily know the underlying optimization (nor should anyone expect that they do).

> 5a looks dodgy (probably just trying out numbers)

You can find the 4 zeros of the left side by eyeball, and use that to construct the rest of the equation group you need.

It's expected you've seen and solved this type of problem before taking the test. Not that many kids can come up with a working solution strategy on the fly.
> The Riftwar Saga by Raymond E. Feist (Magician, Silverthorn, A Darkness at Sethanon), while not an officially licensed D&D tie-in, is based on a D&D campaign the author played in at UCSD in the 1970s.

The books are set 500 years before the campaign IIRC. Midkemia Press put out several RPG supplements including several describing places in the Kingdom:

> I think the Malazan Book of the Fallen by Steven Erikson is also based on an RPG campaign, which started out as D&D then switched to GURPS.

That's interesting, I couldn't imagine how you'd fit the breadth and depth of character abilities from the books into something like D&D.
Mass is not increasing in the frame of reference of the ship, so no, it will not collapse into a black hole regardless of how much energy it received externally (e.g. laser beam from Earth) to accelerate closer to the speed of light.

I've had the exact opposite experience to this, completely and utterly the other way around with React being over engineered and complex, with Vue being the tidier and faster to deal with. I get that React is the industry 'standard', but having worked with both for a while now, Vue is to me hands down better.

Also with Vue, you have community driven direction, rather than FB. This is a big positive for me.

You make it sound like you forgot and it was immediately taken, but if it was a .com it would have gone through the expiration process and not have been working for quite some time. Nobody noticed website wasn't online for weeks before it would have been dropped and re-registered.

HugeDomains is a massive operation though, I think they are the largest drop catcher at this point and that's their business model. If they are selling for $2500/ea roughly, they need to sell around 1:300 to remain profitable.

A lot of people try to imagine what a better domain market looks like and a more fair way to distribute things. I don't think I've ever heard a proposal that looked better. Since we know there is economic value, people are going to invest heavily (look at crypto space) and not create any real value. I think we ended up at a local maxima because of the organic development of domain names and the internet. There might be a scenario where everyone acted in some communist good faith best effort system, but humans just aren't capable of really doing that.

In case you're not aware - the Composition API is entirely optional and will most likely remain that way. It brings more flexibility but also adds complexity and makes components less readable.

1. Bookmarks fail for medium term usage. There's some research material for a doc or PR I'm actively working on - Why bookmark, catalogue and eventually prune if I'm not going to need it past tomorrow?

2. Bookmarks don't keep page state. As more apps go the PWA route, not all of them have URIs that lead to your preferred state. Even just stuff like expanding/hide comment threads is a start, not to mention things like NPR which redirect me to the homepage if it's been too long since I last did the CMP dance.
I'm struggling to understand what problem this is meant to solve. I've been working in high scale production environments for 15+ years and I can't think of a situation where I'd mount a network file server and run a local script to parse logs there.

If this is what you want to do there is almost certainly a better solution that involves parsing the logs another way entirely.
How to Hack APIs in 2021
tab stash for firefox is the best solution I've found so far. i still end up with tab creep every now and again, but when it happens it's really quick to stash them into different groups, give it an optional name of needed, then when you open the that group of the later on, the stash is deleted.

the other thing i love about it is that is just uses plain bookmarks and folders for each stash, so i means that you can sync your bookmarks to mobile and still access them there. a few other extensions ive tried in the past store they bookmarks in a database, so you can only access on another device if you use the same extension
I think you should swap Vue with React in this take, I'd agree with you 110% if you did that. React is the most over engineered tech I've ever worked with and if it weren't for excellent IDE support a la TS etc would be a nightmare to use on a daily basis. Also Vue 3 has great support for TS, 2 not so much. I can't see myself doing any project without Vue, it's literally plug and play and by far easier to grok and use than React.
This. The Vivaldi implementation sucks because: not a tree.
The full title is actually "Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality": http://www.hpmor.com
The entire article could basically be boiled down to your first sentence + the two code examples.

And IMO the title is still inaccurate because it attacks a general promised/desired property of Rust (and other languages) and I honestly don't see the connection. Looks like the observed behaviour is an unfortunate side effect of the `newtype` thing and is very prone to fixing and optimization in future versions. It's not a failure of the "zero-cost abstraction" ideal which is being chased after every day and is still in flux.
Compared to virtual desktops, this allows you to close down apps (consume less resources) as well as maintain multiple working context-specific application states.
I am very much the opposite! I close my entire browser at least once per day - every tab closed. I have about 10 sites in my bookmarks toolbar - which are basically the key sites I use for work, and that's it.

If I have too many tabs open, I lose context.

Ditto with terminals - they ALL get shut down multiple times per day. Reset to zero, spin up state, do task, reset back to zero.

I treat it like a commercial kitchen - you clean the whole place and then you cook the session's meals, and then you clean it all down again.
I guess the point is: you can't really tell anyone about it, because they have died tens of thousands of years ago. So it's "bring your friends"?!

in rust you would write (0 .. 99).sum() for range not including 99

or (0 ..= 99).sum() for range including the 99

which makes me think that i don't know how to read (0 to 99) unless i learn whether it's exclusive or inclusive (but at least it's googlable, unlike a random looking operator)
I doubt it; besides, astronomers love their telescopes!
Is it that much worse than, for instance:

kvPairs.reduce((acc, [k,v]) => ({...acc, [k]: v}), {})

(Which obviously has nothing to do with the K-Snippet but is the first thing that came to my mind that's equally as symbol-heavy)
Because I'll be never sure when I need this tab next time. I can't use bookmarks because bookmarks don't record the exact context (the history leading to that tab and neighbor tabs).
I am not an expert by any means, but I believe one of the main reasons is that there is a fixed national curriculum, that includes many different domains, with the same standards for everyone, usually withab a huge focus on knowledge accumulation and rote learning. The mentality is often centered around knowing and being able to repeat facts and formulae. The curriculum often goes into deep detail on relatively obscure subjects with no or very little context. Combined with poor teachers (both in terms of performance and financially), this leads to many, if not most, students being relatively left behind.

For an example of the top-level mentality, the compulsory school system used to include K-12 until a few years ago. In high-school, you used to have anorganic chemistry in grades 9 and 10, and organic chemistry in grades 11 and 12. After the move to K-10, the curriculum was adjusted to have anorganic chemistry in grades 9 and 11, and organic in 10 and 12, with the cited reasoning being that you can't have students graduating out of high-school without knowing the basics of organic chemistry, can you? This, again, in a country where a good third or more of those students can actually barely read - they've been lost since around grade 2-3.
>What's more important? Your right to "privacy" (which you can still invoke by simply not using iCloud) or their right to a normal life?

My right to privacy of course because the other option is a strawman. What you are doing is the typical slippery slope of selling out something for everyone because of a small minority of criminals.

"Should criminal Mr. X be allowed to do Bad-Thing-At-Level-10 to Small-Amount or should we do Bad-Thing-At-Level-1 to Everyone?" None of these are correct. Both are or should be illegal.

GP is a nice reverse engineered explanation, but the actual origin of using seconds as a unit is to avoid having to compare metric and imperial units of speed. Isp is just exit velocity divided by g and it's conveniently in seconds, a pretty universal unit. And "one pound of thrust" only makes sense when you're in Earth's gravity field with gravity losses. Otherwise it's more precise to use Newtons for thrust.
Apple can reach in and turn those on and trigger a backup whenever they want.

Reminds me of similar stories about video games in the 90 and 2000s.

It's pretty simple: walking outside in parks, where there are trees and green and fresh air, is good for everybody. Staying inside 4 walls is always unhealthy, sitting for too long, or not being exposed to enough sunlight.

But using a smartphone and social media is compatible with all those things.

The only things that bothers me in social media:

* Narcissistic tendencies

* Bullying and doxxing

* Political bubbles

* Abusive online advertising and influencing, and privacy problems caused by internet giants.

Other than that, social media is not so bad.

What are you doing that causes you to need several files for a single component? I am working on a multi-page app using the TypeScript class decorators and .vue component files. I turned off most of the optional features (including babel), and it's just a single .vue file most most components. I configured the Webpack and TypeScript settings when I created the project and haven't had to do much since.

I've used Vue on several other projects and have enjoyed using it every time. I like that parts of the Vue framework are optional. Don't want the router or state management? Don't use it. The codebase is well organized, the output files are small and the app is performant.

I don't like all the dev dependencies you need to get going, but I have that same complaint about most other modern front-end frameworks.
Or smarter wars?
