I don’t think that a magazine has the power to ban or set global policy on anything. They do have the ability (or perhaps the responsibility, as a free press) to to research, describe, and suggest alternatives to “every pleasurable activity we might voluntarily undertake.” That results in an informed majority, not a tyrannical one.

There are two primary forms of measuring GHG:

--

A. Territorial GHG emission accounting

B. (Absolute) GHG footprint accounting

--

A. Measures GHG released with in the territorial borders.

B. Measures upstream GHG released outside the territory but consumed within.

--

Moving a coal plant across state lines doesn't reduce the GHG impact of a state, it merely removes the accounting from the states balance sheet.

The main fiber network here in Japan (NTT) had the opposite development - their old PPPoE-based IPv4 core network was under-dimensioned for modern traffic patterns, so instead of upgrading it they build the next generation core network on IPv6.

So the first troubleshooting step when someone complains their home internet is slow is to say "have you enabled IPv6 service?"

Switching from PPPoE to IPv4-over-IPv6 means you get switched to CGNAT so if you want to host anything it's a downgrade, but in reward you get far greater performance.

I can’t read the full article because of the paywall but the main argument seems to be that cows emit a lot of CO2.

Ruminants eat plants, which contain carbon captured from the atmosphere. They then release most of that carbon back to the atmosphere, from where it will be eventually absorbed by plants again. So it’s a cycle where no new carbon is really being introduced (unlike burning fossil fuels that would otherwise stay in the ground).

Am I missing something or is the seriousness of this issue blown way out of proportion?
I summed up all my complaints about NFT's in this (short) article:

https://www.fortressofdoors.com/the-degraded-blockchain-prob...

> In short, the minute you connect your blockchain to an app frontend you now have a degraded blockchain, one that cannot even in principle guarantee immutability, trustlessness, and decentralization – at least not for assets that the app's customers actually care about.

Scratch the surface on almost any NFT ecosystem or blockchain application and I find I'm still relying on trust, or a centralized service, or a service that's more mutable than it advertises. So if I don't get the purported benefits of blockchain anyways, what was the point of getting a blockchain involved?

EDIT: Getting a lot of responses that I don’t have time to reply to. My more involved thoughts on the entire space are here:

> This is no different than any current artist with a limited print run

Right. But also nobody acts like limited print runs are mathematically non-fungible.

If the best argument for NFTs is that they're scarce in the exact same way that existing systems produce scarcity, and that this scarcity is enforced using the same systems we already have, that's not a good argument for the existence of NFTs. You might as well just do normal token issuance using existing technology.

> It's kind of like saying there could be an infinite number of paintings, so why should Picassos be worth very much?

We could mint an infinite number of Picasso NFTs, though. None of them are the actual piece of art.

You could argue that one particular NFT is the official Picasso NFT because it was sold by the owners of the Picasso painting, but it’s still just a fancy hyperlink to a page that says “This is a Picasso NFT”.

NFTs are basically fancy blockchain transactions with a memo field that can say “This represents a Picasso painting” and we’re all supposed to believe that it means something.

The closest equivalent would be something like baseball cards. There is a market for baseball trading cards, but everyone is fully aware that they’re still just arbitrary prices of printed cardboard.

I watched the link below to try to understand what is going on with NFTs. This helped a bit but I don't quite understand how to apply the token to a physical or digital thing. Does it make sense that for a digital item (like a jpg) it would be a hash of the file, the entire file or something else? Also, how would one use an NFT with a physical item (if that is in fact possible)?

I prefer "sifting through more combinations than there are elementary particles in the universe times the universe's age in picoseconds"; it's a fairly reliable indicator that exhaustive search is not a viable way to solve the problem, not just today but, with classical computing, ever, because it's very unlikely that we can make a working computer out of less than a single elementary particle, try more than one guess per picosecond (per computer), or wait longer than the current age of the universe for an answer. I've seen such calculations at least since the 01990s.

It might turn out to be wrong (for example, elementary particles or black holes might have exploitable structure, a picosecond is pretty long compared to the Planck time, or closed timelike curves in spacetime might allow you to spend an unboundedly long time computing something), but at the very least it's a strong suggestion that exhaustive search will not be fruitful.

For more immediate purposes I prefer the dollar cost of carrying out the computation with currently available hardware.

Quantum computing, when it becomes practical, will give you only a quadratic speedup, as far as we know. So the relevant problem size then expands to the square of the number above.
Disclosure: I'm also a founder of Authzed

The information you are describing can be retrieved via the Expand API [0], which returns a tree containing all of the relationships that are reachable from a permission, as well as how they were reached.

For example, if you have a schema with a permission like so:

definition resource {
relation parent: resource

relation writer: user
relation reader: user

permission view = reader + writer + parent->view
}

An ExpandPermissionTree call for the permission `view` on a resource will return a tree that contains the users with view access to that resource, each set of users placed under `reader` or `writer` with a reference to the containing resource, so you know how a user was granted the `view` permission.

There are plenty of ways to break a leg! And police officers aren't a particularly healthy group, tending to be overweight and out of shape. Combine that with a job that involves infrequent but strenuous exertion and you get lots of injuries.

I'm certain the broken leg will be discussed but it is likely that the break has nothing to do with any particular action by the deaf person.

e.g., my neighbor "broke his leg" a few months ago in the first few minutes of playing soccer with his grandchildren. No contact was required: he slipped while setting up for a kick and broke his fibula.

* a lot of energy is used to farm the cows, e.g. growing their food, fertilizers, butchering, shipping, etc

* Cow methane is a much worse greenhouse gas than co2, orders of magnitude worse

* Land that would capture a lot more CO2 and keep water in the environment is chopped down or otherwise destroyed to make pastures, the worst being rainforests.

* Orders of magnitude more water is used to raise cows vs the equivalent calories in plants.

> What about IPv6 makes it such a chore to become widespread?

IPv6 is not just a straightforward extension of IPv4 to bigger addresses (plus some cleverness for how to route between them, if at all).

There's a whole lot of other complexity in the protocol. There's a way you're supposed to get addresses that's not DHCP, and a good chunk of clients don't have or only recently got a DHCPv6 implementation. You're supposed to have an efficient hardware multicast implementation. Addresses are structured (unlike IPv4 CIDR), and an entire /64 is supposed to be assigned to a single customer / subnet so they can auto-configure addresses based on that. In turn, the way to auto-configure your (NAT-less) IPv6 address was to use your MAC address, i.e., give advertisers a free permanent third-party cookie, and the RFC to do something else only came out in 2007.

And, of course, for better or worse people have designs that involve NAT, and until very recently IPv6 basically demanded that you rip all of it out.

Regardless of whether you think these changes are good or not, they are certainly a chore.
I thought the modern view was that the Amazon as the "lungs of the planet" was supposed to be totally bullshit and we could burn the whole thing down and be fine - but what we can't do is screw up the oceans, and it's already too late and we're all effectively doomed (walking ghost status) but we just don't realize it yet.

I'm paraphrasing here.

I can understand the argument that individual consumer changes are not enough to stem the tide of climate change. But I’m not sure that means individual choices have zero real impact.

I think the voting analogy is good, but I take a different lesson from it. Not that voting is pointless. Individual actions matter a great deal in their cumulative effect.

Building understanding is like building muscle, it needs to be done against resistance and with a degree of struggle.

Building understanding, and then building intuition.

That one quick trick that gave some body builder/weight trainer the edge, without the accompanying resistance training is unlikely to work, but in their 'tutorial post' they emphasize the "burrito" part of their regime (the one unique tweak to their regime) - and neglect mentioning the hours of pumping iron.

Learning is integrating experiences into an internal model and with most domains of expertise this is more difficult than just learning rote facts.

I'm excited to see how a more general cultural experience with machine learning changes our ideas of learning from a facts-in-facts-out mentality.
And what is stopping someone from creating multiple NFTs for the same art?
It’s been my observation that progressives seem to measure success of any position they hold more by its degree of good intention rather than it’s actual effects or results.
Not sure about the potential for a private entity to sue another private entity for those damages - but sure, to the extent that beef production creates positive externalities, the value of those externalities should also be priced in. Though most of the warming potential from cattle farming comes from methane, not carbon dioxide, so I'd be surprised if it actually had a nonnegligible impact on crop yields, let alone an impact that came anywhere close to offsetting the negative externalities elsewhere.

Empirically, most politicians don't support carbon taxes. Market-consistent pricing of climate-related externalities is broadly opposed by politicians on both sides of the aisle in the US. For example, look at the massive subsidies to dairy farms in my home state of Wisconsin - they get over 40% of their revenue from direct subsidies in a typical year, and if you exclude those subsidies the industry hasn't made a profit for at least several decades, but no one dares to even suggest reducing or eliminating them, let alone going the other way and taxing the negative externalities they create.
Troll or not, he was supported by those people.
Just minting something does not give it value. Sure, you can give it a price. Likely nobody will pay for it unless they think it truly has value. It’s the responsibility of each NFT creator to convince people that it’s worth anything.
They mean "not cherry-picked or otherwise faked"; that is, that the images shown on that Twitter account are really typical of the images produced by CLIP guided diffusion, not, say, hand-painted.
You know what's actually useful - today - for compensating artists and unlocking access to features? Patreon. A glorified mailing list with a subscription fee. NFTs are inferior to that; at least the artist gets your email address.
The best best practices I've heard usually have stories behind them. Someone did or didn't do X, and bad thing Y happened. Therefore we do or don't do X in the hopes of avoiding Y again.

The danger is that X keeps happening without the story of Y also being passed along; otherwise it turns into the Five Monkeys problem (https://intersol.ca/news/organizational-culture-and-the-5-mo...).

I'm not disagreeing with the author's friend's point. But at least if there's a story attached to the practice, then it's less of an appeal to authority and more of collective wisdom that can continue to evolve.

I guess I doing get your point. Fungible means interchangeable. The average consumer doesn’t think twice about whether their electricity comes from coal or solar as long as the lights turn on when they flip the switch. If you try to give someone soy beans when they ordered a steak they’re going to care quite a lot. Food isn’t fungible for the average consumer. That has absolutely nothing to do with it being a commodity or not.
If you buy an NFT for a piece of art, you can't even sell prints of the piece of art. You can't take a pic of it and sell a t-shirt of the art. You own nothing associated with that piece of art, except for the NFT itself.

It's such a strange, strange concept to want to invest in.

What if they create a new NFT blockchain standard. Does the previous NFT become invalid? Is there anything contractual saying you can't have multiple types of NFTs on a single piece of art? I kind of doubt it.
> Cow methane is a much worse greenhouse gas than co2, orders of magnitude worse

But it's also released in much lower quantities, and has a much faster half life. Let's be clear: carbon dioxide, not methane, is responsible for the overwhelming majority of long term warming.

Ladder logic, or "Linear Programming" usually implements state machines for industrial control systems.

Constraint systems like TKsolver! are sort of like Prolog, maybe.

Spreadsheets: reminded me of a similar but different beast, the scriptable outline programs. Dave Winer's UserLand Frontier is maybe the best example.

Omni Software's OmniFocus product grew from Ethan Schoenover's beast of a script system that he built in Omni's outliner product.

Is industrial "Operations Research" computer programming? Or is it just in a bigger bag, alongside the computers, called "Cybernetics"?

Your source doesn't support your point, it doesn't break out transportation related to beef or the stuff feed to cows to make beef.
It gets worse: if someone hard-forks the blockchain the NFT is on, it's possible for there to be two entirely different claimants to the NFT.

And then there's all the times people's artwork has been straight up ripped off and minted into NFT's without their permission. The only provenance record a blockchain can authoritatively track is its own internal transactions -- it can't even prove that the original artist was involved at all; you're still relying on trust for that.
Not exactly what you're looking for, but unveil[0, 1] can help fulfill a similar goal.
