It seems that the new data invalidates that conclusion?
In Spanish they use seguidores: literally followers. Why can’t they do something like that in French?
What's the problem there though? If it's not burned, for energy, then it's not causing emissions.

The one emitting use case you talk about is fertilizer, and the switch from the Haber process to using electrolyzed hydrogen is already starting. It will require a decade or more of tech development to make it cheaper than existing processes, most likely, but it's almost certain to happen as we scale industrial electrolysis.

An example hydrogen fertilizer project:

A key analogy that went unused in the article is the Red Queen's Race: "it takes all the running you can do to stay in the same place" applies to car traffic precisely because cars are large and powerful and are persistently required to make slow turns and smooth stops relative to their size - think of all the roads where you have to carefully inch out, keep deliberate pace and stopping distance, and so on. Spaces that are "for cars" correlate to spaces that are unsafe "for people". If you add more than a small topping of car traffic to a road, they will impede each other. Therefore, to make large numbers of cars move quickly you have to add disproportionate amounts of car infrastructure, which creates car-centric land use patterns, which inhibits alternatives and makes cars the default by dint of being the smallest unit that can safely use a road. "If they get bigger, I must get bigger too" is applicable thinking for someone who wants to feel safe on the roads.

If you reduce the scale, the speed, the headways, you have greater ability to adjust. While car pileups are expected, bicycle pileups are a thing usually only seen in races when the limits are being pushed. Ordinary bike commuters can navigate safely without rules when given a mixed bike/pedestrian space of sufficient size. Bikes don't get bigger to feel safer. The resulting infrastructure scales better for the cost, and the Red Queen's Race is averted. When bike lanes reach capacity, the failure mode is crowded-stadium, not stand-still freeway. Traffic slows down gradually instead of creating roadside bloodbaths.

Transit does experience more of a headache from induced demand pressure since it also uses large vehicles, and the entire trip experience is contingent on not holding up that one train or bus - while Tokyo's system works, the crowding is notorious, and the train stations have sizable footprints. But as a collective effort, it can also be much more coordinated and deliver useful results from capacity increases.
Gnome is the reason why people don't stay on linux

I was so happy when Valve announced they'd ditch debian/ubuntu and gnome
I liked the idea, but then saw:

> Our toothbrush-sponge consists only of silicone and nylon, which is totally easy to recycle.

I'd love seeing how easy it is to recycle silicone and nylon. Maybe it's just me, but compared to other eco-friendly options out there, silicone and nylon seem like the least eco friendly options.

Also, what's the lifespan of one of these devices? How many uses can I get out of it before it starts breaking down into micro bits of silicone and nylon in my mouth?

The other benefits listed are fine I guess, but then there's the price.

$140+ for a six pack seems crazy.

That kind of money buys a lot of actually biodegradable bamboo based toothbrushes.
I would say it's fairly reasonable. It's not like a war territory or anything like that. You find big areas that are pretty normal in terms of what to expect, only small crime, and to feel safe it's a matter of being self aware and reduce the attack surface. As it's in many other countries around the world, is more a question of being privy of where the shady neighborhoods or what are the avoidable zones around town. I am colombian and I live in Bogota, so I can answer more questions if you want.

I love the Colombian caribbean coast, so that is why is my first recommendation to the OP, the weather is perfect almost all year round, and with a modest budget he can definitively have a moderate (and even higher) lifestyle with no much compromises.
"Slack" is also a common term in supply chain and project management.
caveat: gargantuan learning curve. Expect to be learning a small yet slightly odd programming language and an ecosystem years in the making. As a distro it is strictly only useful for very technically minded people or people who rely on someone like that to maintain their distro for them.

But once you do learn it and fully prepared your set-up, it's amazing. Around a month ago I switched from Arch to NixOS after using the former for around a decade and I'm very happy with it despite its warts.
That is not quite it - in a relatively efficient market with numerous transactions, price can be a good indicator of value. Basically: "This store is busy selling lots of shoes, and apparently a bunch of people are buying them, so they must be worth the price."

I do this sometimes with cheaper stuff that I don't know much about. E.g. A shovel or something. I don't know much about shovels, but I know I want a good one. So I will be biased toward the more expensive shovel on the rack, assuming I can afford it. If it wasn't better, then presumably all the people that really know about shovels wouldn't buy it, so then it wouldn't be for sale.

Anyway, the logic here isn't perfect obviously, but still makes reasonable sense and works out okay for stuff you can easily afford and don't know much about.
MacOS is basically Unix, so I don't think it'll run better due to the OS. The real reason to switch to Linux is you can get much more powerful hardware than Apple sells (or sells for a reasonable price).
rip out the walls to remove it ....
We have plans to offer a few different versions of KrakenSDR. The entry level version will likely be the current version with 5 tuners. We are laying out an idea for 8 tuners, integrated CPU, and pre-set antennas; basically a turnkey system for remote operations. We can definitely produce more exotic beasts, but I don't think there is much of a market for a Kraken with a hundred heads.
> while a previous infection will cause your body to produce antibodies for a much larger set of targets on the virus, which in practice leads to a more robust immunity.

That is simply not a statement you can make without supporting evidence.

Your immune systems binds to irrelevant targets all the time. People normally got measles once, but lots of people got it multiple times.

It is entirely possible that your immune system will bind to something that mutates rapidly and have worse response than the vaccine.

As someone who got the Covid19 in Original Flavor(tm), I still went and got the vaccine. I don't want to be one of the unlucky ones whose immune system didn't flag the spike protein for destruction.
A B205.

Mostly playing around with high spectral efficiency digital modulation techniques like PSK/QAM and OFDM using GNU Radio. Trying to shovel as much data as I can between two links with as little power as possible. I'd like to experiment with below-the-noise-floor communication, but haven't gotten there yet.

It's sort of silly, because you can do all of this in simulation, but it's more fun with real hardware. Eventually I'd like to be able to build a (solar?) drone with a radio system resembling a cell tower and do ground-drone-ground relay experiments, but I'm extremely not there yet.

I also wanted something that could transmit after I got a ham radio license (out of boredom during the pandemic, shortly after they started doing testing online), but haven't really used it that much, as I don't really have a good antenna set up. For data experiments, a wire or a PCB trace works well enough.

I also do a lot of embedded Wi-Fi / Bluetooth stuff at work and would like to use this for packet captures, but haven't needed to yet. It's completely overkill for something like that though.
This entire thread just reads MADNESS in bold. The hell is this law supposed to accomplish?!?!
very valuable feedback. thanks a lot
Spitballing a wild hypothetical that is probably wrong, but was inspired by what you said so I thought I'd share:

I wonder if the arrival of the 3D revolution was just a little too early for computer nerds to embrace an open source ecosystem from the get-go and how different it would've been if "If you want to run DOOM/Quake/Unreal Tournament then install OpenSUSE/Slackware so you don't have to bother Fiddling with drivers on DOS" would've been more commonplace.

From the 80s to the 2000s, video games became a multi-billion dollar industry that inspired two half-generations of kids to pursue careers in technology, but the world of FOSS was so focused on different use cases that the middle ground of "computer curious" kids probably wasn't as big of a revolution as it could've been.

Hopefully, the work Valve is putting into Proton/WINE + Steam Deck will give us a piece of that alternate history.
Why would Apple have made white on green the default for so many years prior to introducing blue?
I guess it depends on your setup, but for me, based on your role, you're automatically part of all the channels that are relevant to you. You can mute channels if they become distracting and aren't relevant. I find this way better, as when we get new people they are instantly part of everything they will care about. When we had slack, I found I had to force join people to channels because they wouldn't know to go particular channels.
Huh, if they can legally justify explicitly discriminating based on sex and age (younger men generally pay more than younger women, while older women generally pay more than older men) I’m surprised they couldn’t figure out a way to discriminate based on age alone.

Edit: here [0] is a breakdown of car insurance costs, stratified by age/sex. Young people pay by far the most, with premiums steadily declining until age 50 and then rising again. So I’m not sure what their objection might have been, since they already do charge old people more (presumably at a level accurately reflecting their relative risk).

1000 USD = 850 EUR. You could get by in Estonia, though not very lavishly. An average quality rental apartment is ca. 400-600 EUR/month in the capitol Tallinn. So you'd have some money left for food and stuff. There's free public transport. But the average net-wage is around 1200 EUR, so you'd have to sacrifice some things compared even to the average Estonian. But you'd win in having a small IT friendly city to live in.
I will try some linux apologetics

1. What is great about the windows GUI? Virtual desktops depend on monitors, annoying popup notifications that cannot be disabled and its resource intensive. IMHO linux has always been light years ahead of windows for as long as I remember, theres dozens of window managers better than the windows one. I am never 100% comfortable in windows, it's so locked down I feel like I am living in a hotel.

2. I do everything with the google docs these days, even on windows. So do a lot of businesses.

3. Again, most people seem to be using google calendar.

4. I actually found it easier to install on laptops back in the day. UEFI made it more painful.

5. A lot of unix tools are 2nd class citizens on windows. You can use WSL but file access is dog slow compared to the real thing.
It’s worse than birth control. There are concentration camps in xinjiang. Called “re-education” or “vocational training.” There are many places to begin educating yourself on this (not directed at the person I’m replying to, but to the downvoters).

A nice follow up would also be looking at std::string_view as this has the potential to save a lot of memory.
I suspect the downvotes are more about your passive-aggressive reframing of the subject, and also your bullshit "I never understood" opening. Act like a child and you'll get treated like one.
So they don’t have the potential to make more than $7.5B in revenue per year? With a market cap of $338B?

Something doesn’t add up there.
Not gonna lie buddy but that’s pretty fucked up of you.

Where does this not lead to people paying more money to go beat you down if you try and evict them?
I would imagine the intent of this "surrealist approach" is to disincentivize the commodification of housing (as a form of political pressure against consolidation of large real estate portfolios)
> Good luck getting multiple different sized monitors to work well out of the box (e.g. laptop + external) on Linux,

Just Works™ actually. Using a laptop/external simultaneous combo at different resolutions right now, and it's literally perfect. It even gets the scaling right. Not a second of configuration.
Because working hard can mean skimming articles or delegating it to someone else to get you the gist of it. I don't have time to read every single interesting sounding article I come across. Well maybe I do, but then I wouldn't have as much time for commenting :)
I second this, Romania is really lovely. North side of the Carpathians, with proximity to forest.
For me, yes, they're bad. I get it's not the end of the world, but a lot of the ad copy in sponsor segments really grates on me, like VPN ones. I try to get rid of ads from my life where I can, this is part of it.

And for me, a lot of the videos I download are played back, audio only, while I go for walks or am otherwise away from the Internet. YouTube lets you download videos, but my audio comes from multiple sources, YouTube is just one source. I can integrate yt-dlp into my feed reader so I don't need to think about the source anymore than I need to worry about going to a random podcast's website to listen to those.

In the end though, a tool like SponsorBlock is just another way I remove the annoyances from the modern Internet.
>One example: people in wheelchairs used to be called "invalids" and pretty much couldn't get anywhere in public.

I suppose all the photographs of President Franklin Roosevelt traveling all across the world, entering the governor's office and ultimately the whitehouse were fakes since these all happened before the ADA.

The fact one of our very active presidents was confined to a wheelchair really puts a hole in your ADA theory of invalids.
It's smooth. I'd say more smooth than older Androids (<7). Haven't seen any UI hiccups on Xperia 10ii nor Jolla C. Definitely the most polished Linux smartphone experience (outside Android if you still consider that a Linux smartphone and not a tracking device).
I've stopped having as much issues with this when I stopped using swap which must be one of the biggest traps for desktop in common linux guides. In my desktop I'd much rather something crash than my system to grind to a halt.

Tokyo,
you can find a decent apartment for around $600(cheaper alternatives exist) in the centre. Then maybe around $100 for utilities and the rest for food and entertainment(considering that you cook on your own).

Before I've even checked it out: Congrats on shipping!!!! I know how hard it is to get something done with the constraints of a day job & family.

I read SO many comments on here from folks lamenting their lack of energy + time to do something like this despite the desire to do so. So 10000 congrats on pushing through and getting something live.

Now to actually check it out (and I'll come back and update this comment with actual feedback ;)

I can understand the reason for this. English has established a hegemony over the world, especially in science and technology. They are fighting this, and don’t want their language polluted with an increasing conglomeration of English words that are often unnecessary, as equivalent words exist in French.

I'm sorry, but as a Serb from Serbia, I cannot agree with the first part of your answer. Belgrade is not a pedestrian friendly city by no means, and you are dependent on cars more then in an average European city. I've spent some time in multiple, smaller and bigger, and those are not features I would associate with Belgrade.

I'm not sure I believe this. You have to become a trusted/respected member of the community, which takes time.

What's weird is Balmer was part of MS from the start, yet he managed it so badly.
> Supply chains aren’t opaque.

So what's the carbon footprint of an XBox Series X? What about a 20 oz bottle of Trader Joe's brand extra virgin olive oil? If this information isn't readily available to consumers, it's "opaque" for all intents and purposes.

> Every politician knows that energy costs effect everything substantially.

You give politicians far too much credit.

> Doesn’t take Nostradamus to know jacking up energy prices pissed people off.

So cut a check to everyone making less than, say, $400K (or subsidize things if that's your kink). Perfectly feasible with carbon pricing. Moreover, after a while corporations will find greener ways to reduce costs. If you're a conservative or libertarian, welcome to the free market.
What has consistently worked for me is to mostly use 3 directions, forcing all of the large tiles to the bottom row, and crowding the space above the largest number(s) so going in the fourth direction keeps those large numbers along the bottom.

All the way to 1024 is autopilot by just keeping small numbers out of the bottom row. Then, the thinking begins---plan each move to keep the 32s, 64s, 128s on the same edge of the board until you make an inevitable mistake or have bad luck working in the remaining 2x4 or 2x3 section. This last section is where your analysis algorithm would really add value. Plus, using just three directions until it's time to condense large blocks should reduce your computation a lot.

Do you think regular use of all four directions is necessary to get more consistently to higher values like 16k or 32k? (Actually, is 32k possible?) I feel like once you have most of the blocks on board to get to 8k except for perhaps one 256, you can't really have a random 2 or 4 in the corner or it's Game Over in 10 moves or fewer. Moving in the fourth direction makes the 'corner small number' a guarantee when the board is filled like this.

Playing all large numbers on the bottom also means you can calculate an optimal play (using the smaller numbers) in small (2x3, 2x4, 3x3) regions as long as the result comes out at the same grid location consistently---near the smallest large number.

Then, optimization of the large numbers becomes a separate problem. Do you put everything sequential in the bottom row?

4096-2048-512-128

Or do you put high values at the ends?

4096-128-512-2048

Or low values at the ends? (This is not the answer. Getting a medium value from one end to the other---consistently---without messing everything else up is not probable and probably not possible.)

Or should the high values make a wedge along two sides?

512

4096-2048-128

In summary, I don't think trying to solve the full state space makes sense. This game feels like two separate isolatable optimization problems---small and large numbers---plus a little bit of glue when the isolation breaks down: starting a game, fixing a stuck situation, or collapsing a series of large numbers.

Have you thought about using your worst cases to find rules to make Evil 2048 even more evil? Or see how an MDP works against Evil 2048 to get the best outcome in worst case scenarios?

Oh-- Great article and analysis, by the way.
Sure, but creators don’t have many other avenues for revenue when you’re already using YouTube-dl(p) to download videos without watching ads. I imagine sponsor spots will be devalued over time as sponsorblock usage continues to grow, especially for creators with audiences that watch content on desktop more than mobile.
Been using Ubuntu for 15+ years and never used gnome. I always install xfce4 (which has basic tiling), Plank and a few other little gadgets. It stays so much out of my way that I basically don't even notice I'm using it. I tried one or two other distros but generally come back to Ubuntu because it hits the sweet spot of modernity and stability.

Vanilla Fedora user here, after years of Mac and Windows. It works really well these days. Multiple monitors, including a 5k monitor. And personally, I find Gnome to be almost as good as the mainstream desktops and even better in some ways. YMMV.

We rented a house from friends (well, really their father's estate who had died the year prior, it was put up in a school auction) outside Nice a few years back. They had a caretaker go by the house a few days before we were to arrive only to find evidence someone was living there. It was supposed to be vacant. The squatters were (very luckily) not there at the time and they called the police right away. The police said make sure they can't get back in or else you will be in court for 2 years trying to get them out. They hired a company to sit guard 24/7 and locked up the house and sold it as quickly as they could. When they first told us we were like oh it's ok we will stay there if you got them out! I am glad they insisted that was a bad idea and found us a new house, the squatters tried to get back into the house a few times because it turns out they had hidden some drugs there. The good news is that my friend and his brother came over to sort out the mess and we were able to hang out for a few days! Great town except for all the squatting :)
Squatters are not likely to have the money for that
>It's possible that in a few years all an authoritarian regime has to do to shut down bad publicity is to get a moderator on r/worldnews.

Too late.

After the Orlando nightclub massacre in 2016, /r/news and /r/worldnews completely shut down postings about it because a Muslim was the killer. /r/askreddit and, yes, /r/the_donald opened up discussion threads because there was no alternative on Reddit.
it's not only type-safe, it uses much less memory, takes less time to construct and does not duplicate the "null" state:

- your JSONStruct takes 160 bytes (on 64-bit systems with libstdc++), the variant one takes 56, almost three times less.

- it needs std::optional<T> for each member to avoid construction, while std::variant does that by default. But the compiler still have to initialize all these optionals to their default state.

- you need on every access two branches:

* one for the type switch

* one for the optional

the variant only has one level of indirection.
