weird how everyone is an "expert" about hydrogen vs EV and knows more than the biggest car company in the world.
But what if that's not true? What if a "thinking thing" isn't really a meaningful concept in the absence of all of the other things? We can discuss it as an abstraction, but it may be an oversimplification that obscures rather than clarifies.

For example, we often talk about thinking in terms of language. If no other beings existed, what kind of thinking would there be? Could you even think "Cogito ergo sum" if there were nobody to say it to?

Human brains evolved in societies, and it may not be meaningful to study that "strictest sense" without taking that into account. Maybe some day we'll be able to study AIs or even "uploaded" brains in isolation, but we don't even know how to think about the parameters of such an experiment, much less what it would reveal.

So from the point of view of a cognitive scientist (as TFA is written), it's worth considering an approach that leaves Descartes off entirely, and to consider brains in society. It's been noted for a long time that language is a matter of both speaker and hearer, rather than an idealized logical form applied to an idealized ontology.
Frankly, I've become VERY accustomed to quickly closing my lid and expecting to open it later with about the same battery life and whatever I was working on sitting there waiting. Apple has set a standard that I think in the year 2021 is totally reasonable to expect from a laptop. The concept of power management isn't one, I, as an end user, think I should have to worry about any more.
Yes it has been around, but it's quite jarring to see anyone actually use it.
For what it's worth, the same query applies left, right, whatever.

I like to lead with how is it all for you and how did you arrive where you are politically?

Common struggles, life stories, other things help start a conversation.

Then it's give and take.

The idea of any side, particular ideology being right, best fit, one size fits all is crazy! That isn't reality.

Talk about it from there.

Many would agree money in politics is bad, for example. I sure do. Another interesting chat is the for profit motive.

Compare and contrast public utilities. The one where I live is straight up government, runs at cost plus. A few miles down the road it's private. Runs at cost plus margin, plus...

All other variables are the same, and what's the impact?

Power is very reliable where I live. It's not so much down the road. Why?

There are many things to discuss like this and get a sense of where the ideologies apply well and where they don't, and after a time, people begin to realize "their team" is playing them for profit due to corruption.

And they are! Make no mistake!

Gets better from there.

I am having these every chance I get. Every time I get someone out of the ideology as means to better ends trap, that's someone who will consider policy, features, benefits, costs, risks and that's all we can ask for, and all we need.

It's also someone willing to talk about money in politics, legal corruption here and what that all really means in terms of ordinary people getting reputable, meaningful representation.

All of that is a foundation for action later on when this stuff bubbles up into something we can actually act on.
How can you send information to your backend server without JS?
Ultimately there is very little money in B2C software sales compared to B2B. Every company that finds success in B2C will try to go B2B.
We are still talking 8 years at this point. Toyota is going to respond to actual sales not just what they think sales are going to be. Assuming they produce a desirable EV they could still ramp up production well past that by 2030.

It’s one thing not to be the company on a new technology, it’s another not to ramp up production when your selling out month after month.
Ordering your cannabis products with delivery is an experience that many people can't find. With White Label CBD, however, you can quickly order whatever you need on https://hempwhitelabel.eu/ and have it delivered to you as quickly as possible for maximum convenience. Buying CBD products was never this easy, so I recommend giving them a try if you're using this medication.
I just recommend being a spilly pourer of detergent.

K8S is great if you have Google problems, but most people don't and I think much of hype around it is much like the hype that existed a decade ago around "web scale" and "big data" and "NoSQL for everything". Docker Swarm is (with some use-case specific exceptions) more than sufficient for any shop running a few hundred nodes with a few thousand containers – and it is two orders of magnitude less complex than k8s.

You can read Docker Swarm's docs end-to-end in < 30 minutes, and have a cluster running in roughly the amount of time it takes to install Docker on three boxes.

Docker's failing was a failure to market Docker Swarm. Most people don't even know it exists, yet every single machine with Docker has it already! The last time I checked, they only had a single dev that was part-time allocated to supporting it.

So it's not so much that Docker failed to jump on the k8s bandwagon, so much as they built a wonderful thing that they never marketed and semi-abandoned, to focus on Docker Hub and other core Docker things they thought they'd be able to more directly monetize.

Fortunately, Docker Swarm remains a wonderful piece of software, even without particularly active investment, because it is a fairly complete offering for most use cases. And it seems to be growing in adoption.

> If you're okay with forcing people to show their medical history to drink,

This is the obvious troll. You're not forced to show anything _to drink_. You're forced to comply with a business's requirements as per their rights, to be allowed to drink _in their establishment_.

Yeah my wife hates that she doesn't get to experience endless office politics and instead has to spend her time with our wonderful children and make meals for her loving husband who makes money for her.
> We could abolish parties altogether and instead elect all our representatives directly as independents

No, we couldn't. I mean, we could eliminate formal parties, but making factionalism less transparent doesn't eliminate it, it just makes it harder for voters to know what they are getting.

There's plenty of research about both better proportionality of results and more supported parties improves most measures of health of democracies, including popular satisfaction with government.

> There's no "us versus them" in this scenario, just "us".

Just because the labels associated with “us” and “them” don't appear on formal organizations or besides names on the ballot doesn't mean they don't exist. (You can see that within parties now—the harsh divisions between the progressive and neoliberal wings of the Democratic Party don't need separate formal parties, or even entities of any kind, to exist; further, the well-defined factions that became the original US parties existed and were widely recognized before formal parties did. Parties are a product, not the source, of factionalism.)
You'd be surprised how hard it is to "Get out of there" and basically impossible for many asylum seekers who've been forgotten about. Hiding out for decades. When getting out fails you need a backup and with the global digital market it should totally be possible to find remote work without ID. Also, I agree that cash over crypto is ideal but it's a situation without many options so you'd likely have to make crypto work.
I see your point there. I only work on the pod side, not touching any metal.
> Most of this earth is seeking food and clean water and substance.

You are underestimating the intelligence of people in 3rd world countries.

They might be fighting violently to procure themselves those things, but in their mind there is always the thought of reaching a point when their social status is so high that they won't have to fight violently, but other people in the village would bring food and water to them as a sign of respect.

That's basically the sole reason for becoming a shaman or a sorcer
In my opinion, why not use a calendar app for that, like Google Calendar, and fill it out each day yourself? For that usecase I don't see the value in paying for these tools.
A casino is similar to a lottery, you expect to lose some, but also to have the (small) chance to win a lot.

Coinbase is promising a fixed 4% earning. If they are to be taken serious, 4% does not mean the risk of losing it all, like in a casino.
Url shorteners, brilliant!
Not sure at all - I have effectively zero working knowledge of Rust - and certainly not looking to second-guess people's motivations for using the feature.

The big bias I'm working from here is that, as an outsider, I have a hard time reconciling all the big talk about how Rust makes it impossible to experience certain classes of bugs, with the existence of a known set of things that its type checker can't check, and which includes a lot of things that are difficult to avoid. One could be forgiven for thinking that the Rust community has a habit of keeping its fingers crossed behind its back when talking.

I don't want to make the perfect the enemy of the good, of course. I realize the feature is there for an important reason. But it sure looks to me like Zig is also good despite being imperfect. Perhaps they're both similarly good languages.
Yup, the long and short scale[1].

Not going to lie, 4000 tons annually is kind of disappointing. Even if you had 100,000 of these plants (that's three times more than the number of starbucks on the planet), that is still less than the gigatons of removal required to make a significant dent in the CO2 already present in the atmosphere. Not to mention I bet these are far more expensive to create/maintain than a Starbucks...

Clean sequestration of plant matter and significant emissions reductions are really the only paths forward.
> ("It's not like this is the Pedro and Gary show at all," Bernstein said. "In fact, we wanted the comet to be called Comet DES, but apparently that's against the rules.")

Des is a name here (short for Desmond). Hacky alternate reality solution: Hire a guy named Des to have the comet "officially" named after.
Also, it's fair to say systems based on classification based on subjective criteria will always have grey area, so any absolute statement about them will be difficult to defend :)
I guess we might as well just call it Socialistpunk then.
Edit: sorry, thought you were talking about Bari.

Your statement proves their point.

The defining of ideas can be contentious, difficult, jarring, and uncomfortable. That they are to one but not another doesn't disqualify them as debatable topics or make the arguer less qualified to make them.

Defending yourself rigorously with evidence and rhetoric was a skill people went to good colleges to learn. Bari argues that universities now reinforce not engaging in debate with or challenging the ideas of anyone who doesn't already believe what you believe (or their signals) but toeing an unspoken line, and that there's no room for nuanced discussion of the ideologies.

It's like a loyalty test where recognizing it openly for what it is is an instant fail.
Agree with what you said. Another data point I noted how often popular Rust associated people hit Twitter whining about a disagreement they had on hacker news. I have almost never seen with other popular/mainstream programing languages. But for Rust it is regular thing.
Quality Energy/Heat Recovery Ventilators (which are basically mandated by code [in some jurisdictions] in modern construction due to air tightness requirements) should allow you to select the filter with the MERV value that works best for your situation.

But to be fair, you may have a good point. Vehicle emissions and tire wear generates particulates consider to be ultrafine (0.1 max nanometer), which is even difficult for HEPA filters to deal with.
I think I know a ton of Covid-cautious people who "wear a mask" to restaurants by putting one on as they walk through the door and taking it off as they sit at their table. There are a lot of contexts where masks directly affect transmission, but it seems clear that they're also serving a symbolic role beyond their practical utility.
Note that you are talking about your social sphere, assumingly in the US, and generalising that to the world. I am taking nationwide trends outside the US and generalising them to the world.

Depends on what you define as work.

Is going golfing and having dinner with clients considered “work”? How about attending fundraisers, concert events, etc. where you have the opportunity to dramatically alter the course of your business with the right connection?
As a retailer why would you accept payment in a currency with this sort of daily volatility of 10%, which doesn’t even have instant confirmation (!!??), has slow transactions, no rollback, no fraud detection or insurance and has high fees?

As a customer why would you make payment in a currency with high fees, poor ux, slow transactions and just enough anonymity to make it perfect for scammers?

As a payment processor why would you touch this currency with a barge-pole given the above problems?

Cryptocurrency isn’t the future of currency or payments, and bitcoin in particular is solving the wrong problems, badly.
The claim being debated is eradication, so containment is a serious goalpost shift.

Swarm may have been easier to get going but from what I heard it had a lot of operational problems and lacked a complete feature set
Im saying that the current state of our (US) moderate left is effectively most other places moderate right.

Our far left is most other places moderate left. Do you not see this to be true?

Our far right is just full blown fascist/Christofacist now. We have $10,000 bounties on the heads of those assisting in seeking medical care in one of our largest states now.

yup. not entirely useless, but especially for the borderline yellow/orange AQI you want to know the error.

http://www.aqmd.gov/aq-spec tests and compares commercial AQM vs lab grade instruments. It isn't quite enough to compare a commercial unit with the same sensor, because you don't really know the mfr calibration (if any), but this will get you a much better idea of performance.

i personally prefer to have a commercial sensor that has an API, rather than DIY.

Web3 is money! The web2.0 it is impossible to make transactions between people, sites, and others.

It's easier to put an ad than to ask the visitor for money. Imagine the possibility of creating feedback with automatic micro-payments!
No you are right, reported cases alone can't tell the full picture. Mandatory testing can skew the numbers and probably undercounts vaccinated people. Same if vaccinated people are significantly more likely to be asymptomatic and therefore have no reason to voluntarily go get tested (but if that is the case, it brings us back to "pandemic of the unvaccinated" to some extent).

The breakdown is similar on weekends, holidays, etc which suggests that mandatory testing does not skew the numbers significantly in Ontario at least.

But as I said: reported cases blah blah, they paint a fairly clear picture to me but there is a lot of complexity there.

What about ICU numbers?

The age of worrying about the browser extension hurdle was in 2017. That ship has sailed. Enough people use it that you can launch any viable web 3.0 enabled business with it now for recurring revenues. Also, that user experience has improved such that browser extensions are not necessary. Many people use their mobile phone wallets to authentic mobile and desktop websites.

There is also substantial room for greater improvement. This actually might be a place to focus your energy and you actually might find it fulfilling.

> It also sounds like web3 is missing a killer app.

Sounds unfalsifiable as its not clear what standard there will be if you and your lay grandma aren't both interested in it. From my perspective there are many killer apps which I'm not interested in. Check out any list of "gas guzzlers" to see what people are paying to use any given day. I'm not sure how to gauge the free-er activity on layer 2 systems. But don't forget about other chains. Its a lot of activity.

> I plan to focus on the high‑quality desktop instead of finding a mediocre middle ground between desktop and mobile.

Oh god damn it. This space is severely under-served. It's only filled by Xamarin Forms, React Native (kinda), Flutter and web. And they all kind of suck for desktop apps.
> Big, meaning that even eliminating all of the excess CO2

Well, it gets you >87% of the way, and stabilizes there as long as emissions do not grow. Where going to 97% depends on lots of changes on agriculture, and only the last 3% is about the gases you cite.

Of course, for 100% you will need to cure all the causes. But "87% solved and not getting any worse" does really not sound like an emergency. I maintain that changing any focus away from CO2 is a mistake.
You've already posted 22 times in this discussion, including COVID denial and downplaying, hyperbole about "freedom loss", labeling someone a Nazi, sea-lioning for hospital stats, and spreading vaccine FUD. What are you trying to accomplish? Have you ever stepped back from the keyboard for a brief moment, reflected on why everything you post is grayed out, and come to a conclusion that doesn't involve groupthink and a massive conspiratorial campaign against "the truth"?
The greater reliability of EVs is one of the factors pushing business uptake in areas like taxis.

If you dont drive many miles then todays EVs are already fine for your use case. If you drive a lot then the fuel savings are enough for you to want to make it work.
The author seems to be under the impression that Rust cannot live harmoniously within the C ABI ecosystem, which is false.

To some extent. Rust, due to relying on LLVM, is limited by its available targets; and so cannot enjoy the full access that C/C++ can. The same is true for Zig, however, since it does not compile to C.

Interesting history. According to that article, using "they," as a singular pronoun was improper from 1745 until 2015. It depends on who you ask of course but had I used singular "they," in a paper, I would have lost a letter grade for each occurrence. My Literature teachers didn't mess around.

PS: I enjoyed the use of the old style footnote. We were just getting out of that notation into inline references when I was taught.
If you can suggest some other ~100yo example of something a lot of people believed would solve a lot of societal problems I'd be happy to edit my comment.

In any case, you're either missing the overarching point (the charitable assumption) or you don't want to fight my point head on so you're nitpicking that my examples aren't good enough (the less charitable assumption).
Well, it's 70 hours sitting in front of a PC. All things considered, it's about as easy as it gets in life besides being born rich.

I lost my passport between security and the gate once (the security staff inexplicably moved it into a new tray, so when I picked up my stuff from my two trays I missed the passport in the third tray). Losing your passport at this point turns out to be very complicated, but I was lucky that they held up the whole plane while I ran back to security to fetch it.

I believe this is it too. Honda also has the equivalent hydrogen powered car and lack of EV's. Occam's razor says they didn't both come to that unideal scenario by chance.
Ah yes - that makes sense. I should have been more precise - I meant abstractions that allow you to add opaqueness (like macros and operator overloading). Again culture plays a role here too - some communities normalize such abstractions more than others.

In short I believe languages that one can pick up in a couple of days and then read code where reasoning of the code is highly local would stand a higher chance of being perceived as simple.
I thought it was just one yen, but one that was highly magnetic.
