In practice I don’t think this works for an green field city. Filtering takes decades to occur. In the meantime new housing will always be more expensive than a low-income worker can afford. If the city wants service workers they’re going to have to subsidize their initial housing.
They used Pearson software to learn to modules. I didn't explain that part in much detail, but it was highly interactive and had instructional videos.
Not at all but somebody else would have done it anyway.

The Soviet Army's fate was sealed not much differently than the US Army's was early into the operations.

Somehow I first thought 2031 would be 20 years from now, and that this was written by a 13 year old. Nope, it's 10 years away, damn how time has flown.

If you're born in 1992 or earlier, the present is closer to the year 2050 than to your birth.

Well, if I were a betting man, I would not bet a lot of money on Trump still being around and fit for the 2028 elections (which he'd have to win for him to be president in 2031). But I would not bet a lot of money against it either.

Okay, comparisons within a particular artistic style then: Splinter Cell vs Metal Gear Solid V. MGSV has somewhat realistic doors, but much simpler than the door system SC:CT has. I've heard quite a few player complaints about MGSV, but never that the doors are less complex than the doors in a stylistically similar game ten years older. Splinter Cell gets some praise for doors, but Metal Gear doesn't get criticized for for falling short of that high bar.

Another example from beenBoutIT: The Last of Us and its sequel have the same sort of style. The sequel has superior doors but is generally considered an inferior game. The quality of the doors really doesn't seem to be a major factor in how these games were received.

Minecraft itself: minecraft doors having no animation was not a foregone conclusion derived from the broader style of the game. Minecraft pistons do have animations when extending or retracting. I've never heard a player complain that minecraft doors are lack what minecraft pistons have.

I think that most video game players are accepting of doors behaving in unrealistic ways. Simple doors don't actually bother most players, and complex doors usually go unappreciated by most players. Contrary to what the video claims, doors can 'just magically fly open', and players don't care.

It's not as much a question to me of whether they've ever seen it, wrote it, or studied it, it's whether they know off the top of their head even which one it is or what the implementation looks like.
As the article suggests, as long as people can make money by literally just burning through energy, it doesn't matter what the supply scales to, the demand will scale with it.

That link is not really that compelling, some of the points made, like this:

> Only 0.6 percent of black men experience physical force by the police in any given year, while approximately 0.2 percent of white men do.

Come across as misleading to me. To compare to the entire race demographic rather than just race demographic in contact with police (which would better give rates than flat population percentage but not be such a tiny number), to not mention the vast difference in those population sizes, to use a national measure when physical force used by police various greatly by location, etc.

> Recent studies have found that while both liberals and conservatives overestimate the chance of dying from police killings and covid, conservatives were significantly closer to the statistical truth.

If the population of the states resembled liberal demographics, does that point still stand? Could the conservative estimation sit closer to the recorded amount because they're less likely as a demographic to see that violence?

A better bet, would be to have a strong government building and planning efficient infrastructure (transportation, utilities, ecology, etc) so that private initiatives make economical and competitive sense.
Local (and preferable with HSM) is the only way, or else it would undermine the point of signing commits.

Through if you just want commits to be signed, then GitHub does it for you as it (always??) signs commits created by their UI/System with their key.

Generally I would recommend FF-Only commits (independent of signing) and local auto-signing

When they say "global economy $3000" do they mean, like, 3000 of us have got to chip in a buck? Because $3000 is a very low figure to make a sensationalism article out of.

I feel like this is written for a specific purpose. Someone will know what it means, but it's not us.
> Many HN readers on non-Apple platforms probably don't see the glyph you intended in this comment.

That is the whole point of my comments. They cannot ever see it unless they are running on an Apple platform. Unless they wanted to see an empty box, the symbol is meaningless to non-Apple users. That is why I asked 'Can you see it?'

Even posting the 'U+261A' glyph here on HN renders nothing and a box on other sites and that is defined in the standard; but they still cannot see it.

So that is a definite 'No' then for '' aka (U+F8FF) and the same for 'U+261A'? OK.

It has been indirectly admitted. Case closed.

Any government with the ability to print its own currency can always pay a debt denominated in its own currency.

The only question is whether or not the currency can retain its ability to procure labor and materials.

> Bitcoin supports total surveillance by default, so I do push back that crypto has solved that problem.

I agree with you. Bitcoin and most other coins have this flaw and it's a problem.

> Really only Cash and Monero avoid this yeah?

Yes. Right now Monero is closest to the original cryptocurrency dream. It's everything bitcoin should have been. It's a shame that bitcoin is still king.

> The government should have access to everyone's financial data when presenting a warrant.

Warrants are for specific persons, not everyone. Yet the government essentially has full access to everyone's banking records. They're still not satisfied, they keep demanding more.

> Not throw out a useful tool for enforcement of law.

They can't be trusted with these powers. If they want to catch criminals, they should have to go out there and do real police work instead of imposing their abusive surveillance on everyone.
I wasn't aware that Jennifer Shahade got the Grandmaster title.
This is the power of meeting the "needs" of business side suits who don't know how to use git or a real editor. So many times I've gotten pushback about writing docs in git instead of in confluence because "what about the non-technical people, what if they need to edit something?". So the lesson learned is that if you can use your proprietary vendor lock in to trap a bunch of C-levels via stockholm syndrome you can just keep failing up no matter how shitty the actual tech on your product is.
I think he explicitly says in the post that China emits more carbon per capita after accounting for carbon offshoring.
I think this was missed in this whole issue. I'm not arguing for or against Chia, but basically in order to bootstrap a mining operation faster, miners were generating the initial files on a much faster SSD and then transferring to HDD. The initial bootstrap ("plotting") is very write intensive, and thus destroys the SSD. HDD do not have the same sensitivity to write heavy workloads.

So if one simply plotted very slowly on an HDD with the spare space they had, it would not likely impact the expected lifespan, and they could earn a few pennies for their efforts. However the issue with all of these crypto efforts is that systems naturally trend towards centralization for reasons of efficiency. The best systems have some balance between the two. It's simply not worth it for most people to plot 100gb of free space on their laptop for Chia and earn a few cents per month. So it only makes sense for miners to do at scale.
China’s rise continues.

You can also get away with ugly hacks and sub par devs. Doesn't matter anyways, you got all the money from selling the SoC, software is an afterthought.
As a certified member of the Rewrite It In Rust (RIIR) Reaction Force, let me answer this by saying that it’s very, very hard to get the software right, even the second time, and RIIR trades one set of unknowns for another. There are also a huge number of people who are convinced that Rust is a fad, or that C is good enough, or whatever. The same people who swore they could outbrake ABS decades ago. They do not want to learn a new, hard thing, and Rust can be hard at first.

Yeah as a Georgist I find this super-city plan pretty confusing. I mean if you're going to build a super-city go ahead and implement LVT, but it feels a bit quixotic to me. You could take all that money and put it into training the next generation of assessors to fix problems of chronically under-assessing land and you'd do much more immediate good for the world and spur much more development.

I'm not a degrowther either but reading their papers is quite interesting because from a first glance nobody will champion degrowth as a movement. Yet at the same time "growthers" are doomed to adopt the policy suggestions of "degrowthers". Why? Because all they did is imagine a sustainable future. Every time growth hits a sustainability cliff, politicians are forced to adopt one more degrowth policy.

Building human-comfortable areas in a desert is quite environmentally friendly, given a source of water (and I don't want to brush this one under the rug; it's actually fairly difficult).

Things about a desert that make energy use lower:

- Evaporative cooling can decrease cooling needs. Using a fan or an evaporative cooler is much more feasible in dry environments.

- Hot days and cool nights mean it's fairly simple to store thermal energy and use that for cooking, water heating, area heating, and/or clothes drying (if you want to actively heat your clothes) at night

- Lots of sun, so solar energy is highly viable. That means lighting can be done through solar energy.

- If the area is windy, fairly easy to ventilate homes just through outdoor wind and maybe an E/HRV if necessary

High humidity areas are really difficult to cool because after a certain Relative Humidity level in the air, fans just stop being effective due to evaporative cooling being insufficient. ACs were originally invented as a method of dehumidification. That said, growing crops in these environments can be a challenge (you can certainly grow aeroponically in greenhouses, but that's energy use, so the numbers need to be crunched) and using transport to fetch water and crops could make the whole project non-viable. There is potential for using solar to desalinate but the water itself needs to come from somewhere.
But those extra 15 min in the air cost money, so it's still an incentive to not plan on arriving before the curfew ends.
The reason I suggested a separate utility, and a composition thereof, is that complexity is the enemy of security.

Error-correction and media block-based encryption is a separate utility than what age provides, and should therefore be a separate tool.

That separate tool can use age for the cryptography. That's fine.

But I will not advocate for more complexity to be shoved into age. It's fine as it is today.
Yeah let's just print trillion dollar bills to pay off the debt. Zimbabwe had trillion dollar bills if I remember correctly.
... I mean, this just sounds like nonsense. There was very little flu last year, because measures against covid, while only somewhat effective against covid, were extremely effective against the flu (as you'd expect; the flu is less infectious). Notably, flu was lowest (or non-existent) where control of covid was also quite good; there's not much reason to think that covid _displaced_ the flu.

But the flu has animal reservoirs; it is, unfortunately, going nowhere.
You are correct, there are no dividends but this part of the definition applies.

"The scheme leads victims to believe that profits are coming from legitimate business activity, and they remain unaware that other investors are the source of funds"

I believe this holds as I don't think most of the investors understand crypto. It is a magic black box so they don't know where the value comes from.
There's some luck involved. I explained how it works in a recent article: https://felx.me/2021/08/29/improving-the-hacker-news-ranking...

Well, Marx famously wrote he himself wasn't a Marxist ("je ne suis pas marxiste"), but putting that aside, Marx was himself a bourgeois intellectual (as were Lenin and Trotsky, Che Guevara, and many other famous revolutionaries). Read Lukas' History and Class Consciousness if you want to understand the relationship between bourgeois intellectuals and Marx's revolutionary politics.

I made no claims for any One True Marxism when I described Identity Politics as "a Marxist revolutionary movement" but I would agree that Identity Politics is consistent with what Marx actually wrote. Consider Marx's third Thesis on Feuerbach:

"The materialist doctrine concerning the changing of circumstances and upbringing forgets that circumstances are changed by men and that it is essential to educate the educator himself. This doctrine must, therefore, divide society into two parts, one of which is superior to society.

The coincidence of the changing of circumstances and of human activity or self-changing can be conceived and rationally understood only as revolutionary practice."

The part of society that is "superior to society" is just those bourgeois intellectuals who are able to transcend their place in their own culture, who have a view of History and can execute its logic ("The philosophers have only interpreted the world, in various ways; the point is to change it."). These are the Revolutionary Vanguard, as Lenin described in What is to Be Done? Moreover, the materialist doctrine forgets, according to Marx, that circumstances are changed by man and "self-changing can be conceived and rationally understood only as revolutionary practice", which i would argue is the essence identity politics and consistent with the centrality of 'homo faber' to all of Marx's philosophy.

To understand Marx, you must understand that, first and foremost, he was a revolutionary. The failure of the actual Marxist revolution to arise from the proles as Marx predicted or to produce the kind of society most people would chose to inhabit (in fact, the opposite, in the form of Bolshevik and Nazi totalitarianism), was instrumental in the thinking of later Marxist theorists, Weimar bourgeoisie though some may have been. I would not count Gramsci as a Weimar bourgeois but he was instrumental in shifting the interpretation of Marxist revolutionary politics to the commanding heights of culture, rather than industry per Lenin. In that, he was 100% predicting the take-over of our education and media systems by revolutionary politics. Gender theory and identity politics are self-professedly Marxist ideologies. There's no real debate about what they think they're about, it's pretty well-documented.

I wonder why you think you have a better claim to interpreting Marx correctly than 150 years of dedicated scholar-activists have been able to do. If you've slogged your way through Kapital vol III, I'm impressed and a bit mystified as to why you might think Marx's important thinking about political economy isn't consistent with identity politics, which, if it's about anything, is about deconstructing the legal and political superstructures that create power. What's more Marxist than that?

This doesn't sound like a serious business proposal. Just consider one example:

> The building features elevated water storage, aeroponic farms and an energy-producing photovoltaic roof that allow it to "share and distribute all it produces."

In other words, this building is going to be freaking expensive: (1) Upper floors of a skyscraper is probably the most expensive place you could store water in. (2) There's a reason why we're not buying cabbages and avocados from aeroponic farms now - they're much more expensive than traditional farming. (3) If you have a city in the middle of a desert, why would you put solar panels on top of a building, instead of right next to the city?

Also, there's no mention on what kind of industry and jobs the city could attract - which isn't surprising given the tone of the article.
Oh, I’ve thought a great about these things. None of your questions are new to me or are ones I’ve not considered. I did not come to my conclusion quickly.

Here are some more thoughts to ponder:

Children are easier to brain wash than adults and teaching basic math involves a great deal of brain washing. To what extent is it the case that a person with no exposure to algebraic concepts growing up is at a disadvantage to learning algebra as an adult? There is a theory that if one doesn’t learn a language in childhood then it is impossible for them to learn one as an adult. Is something similar applicable to Mathematics?
I'm not saying to end all fossil fuels, we obviously need them, but you can use your profits to fund the next sources of energy rather than fight change.

You also can't use your own mailbox keys loaded into bridge - the only mailbox keys that can be used seem to be generated inside their app (which from a security standpoint is the same as generated on their server).

Why not pick an old Rust Belt town, plane it smooth, and start over?

If you boost density substantially, you might only need a portion of the current land area (simplifying the acquisition and clearing process).

Maybe you can even use the existing population base to help bootstrap the economy. I could see making some sort of offer for people to sign over their land (with decrepit buildings and worn-out infrastructure) for highly subsidized or free units in the newly built city.
> And to be clear, I don't doubt that many people "can't" learn calculus in the same way I "can't" run a marathon; we don't have the desire, discipline, and free time necessary to do the work required. This does not speak in any way towards our capacities to do so, only our desire.

Your VO2max, max heart rate, and other factors appear to be significantly determined by genetics, and will absolutely contribute to your capacity to run a marathon. If it takes you a year of hard training, but it takes me a few practice runs a few weeks before, it's not fair to say we required the same amount of desire, discipline, or free time to succeed. I would instead say we had a very different capacity to run a marathon.

Are you saying that similar things could not possibly be true for learning math? Or really anything else that humans do?
