Depends.

If you're switching jobs just for more money and don't get any useful experience or skills along they way, effectively coasting along and becoming a junior with X years of experience, then yes you can be replaced.

However, if you're smart and a little bit selective, making sure to only job hop to gigs that provide some challenge and growth opportunities, not just going with every recruiter that promises you more $$$, then the skills you'll develop and pick up should guarantee that no junior can easily replace you.

What else did you think what the origin comment meant? You thought that person is an omniscient god that can inspect the entirety of the animal kingdom at a moments notice and verify there are no animal reservoirs?
Fungible doesn't mean divisable. That does not imply non-fungible means something is divisable. I gave an example of somithing fungible which isn't divisable (a barrel of oil) and one which is (dollars). In fact I also gave an example of something non-fungible which is non-divisable (Van Gogh's Sunflowers).

I'm struggling to think of something non-fungible which is divisable, but in any case I'm pretty sure NFTs are not divisable. It might be the case that non-fungible implies non-divisable but fungible things can be divisable or not.

I have never heard this particular angle on this bill, and would hope that it's wrong. Can someone confirm/deny with some references?
Energy efficiency is important relative to other distribution methods. If the efficiency is half that of electric, you can power half the cars you could with electric with existing energy supplies. Obviously that is incredibly important - energy supplies will always be finite and fully utilised.

A few places have tried to build a hydrogen network with. Metal embrittlement is a real problem and storage is not straightforward, even after you've produced it.

https://electricrevs.com/2019/06/11/recent-explosions-shutdo...

Hydrogen hasn't been adopted because it is expensive, dangerous, difficult to store and not as efficient as electric. With advances in batteries in the last few years it is definitely on the way out and electric is the clear winner here.

> Modern vehicle weigh multiple tons, what's a half-ton battery really matter?

The Tesla Model S weights about 2100kg.

The Tesla Model S battery weights about 540kg.

This means that a 1500kg car is forced to pack an additional 540kg to be able to store energy. That's an additional 30% of the mass that you need to accelerate and brake.

People do care about that. In the very least, the battery mass is responsible for an effective drop in energy efficiency of around 30% just to cart someone around.

> Finally, electric cars charge at ~96% efficiency, while hydrogen is something like 40%. I, for one, am not interested in paying 3x per mile.

This claim has little substance and credibility. For starters, if you factor in how much additional energy you need to waste just to pack along a massive half ton battery, you'll eventually realize that the effective energy waste of a EV is not much different than the hydrogen one.

I mean, the point of a EV is not to have it parked on the driveway, charge a battery, and proceed to boast about how that was very efficient. Your goal is to move around, and moving that massive half ton beast of a battery along with you wastes a lot of energy too.

Also, battery efficiency is around 80%, which naively sounds a far improvement over fuel cell's lauded 40% efficiency. However, a Li-Ion battery weights half a ton and represents around 1/3 of a EV's mass, which also requires energy to be moved around. For reference the fuel cell of a Toyota Mirai is only 40kg, less than the weight of an adult passenger. Once you do your math you'll quickly notice the effective energy use is not that different.

And then there's the cost argument. The typical back-of-the-napkin figure for how much EVs cost to run is around 500€/year. Even if you bump that up to twice the cost, that price is eclipsed by the huge markup that you're already paying for an EV. I mean, a Tesla Model S costs about a century worth of energy bills before it even gets it's tires dirty.

Playing the frugality card with the current batch of EVs lacks any credibility and is, at best, being penny wise and pound foolish.

Since the article discusses the origin of the term, Richard Rhodes in The Making of the Atomic Bomb writes:

> Otto Frisch remembers that his friend Fritz Houtermans [..] proposed the popular theory that "these people were really visitors from Mars"

His Wikipedia article goes into more details:

> Houtermans had a great sense of humor. Many have commented on this, and one of his colleagues, Haro von Buttlar, collected stories told by Houtermans and privately published them in a book with more than 40 pages. One story purports to explain the contributions of seven of the twentieth century's most exceptional scientists, Theodore von Kármán, George de Hevesy, Michael Polanyi, Leó Szilárd, Eugene Wigner, John von Neumann, and Edward Teller, all Hungarians. According to Houtermans, they are Martians, who are afraid that their accents will give them away, so they masquerade as Hungarians, i.e., people unable to speak any language but Hungarian without an accent.

Taken from a previous comment I’ve made re IPv6:

IPv6 is fundamentally not ready for real world use within small/medium businesses and homes IMO. At least not without NAT. Why?

- Can’t just simply put one IPv6 router/firewall behind another. Not all IPv6 routers support DHCP-PD, and even if they did, you could have 2-3-4 levels of routers/firewalls at a business. I’m not making this up- retail/gas/food industries often have a plethora of networks at a location, and the business/franchise owner is not tech literate, or even if they were, the equipment is managed by third party vendors and they don’t want to customise their IP network for each location. It makes for messy deployment and maintenance.

- Can’t just simply open a firewall rule on the main site router to forward say HTTPS to an internal service. Why? Not all ISPs give static IPv6 prefixes, not all PCs/servers/devices support DHCP6 for static leases, and then there’s IPv6 privacy addresses. Yes, you can statically configure (only if ISP is static too!). No, I don’t want to open the port to all devices on the LAN and no I can’t rely on each device to be running their own firewall (let alone a properly configured one!).

- WAN failover / multiple ISPs is hard. You have a fibre primary feed, and a secondary cellular/5G feed. Each has different IPv6 addresses. How do you ensure the right ISP is used at any given point? IPv6 shifts this decision to the client. This makes load balancing and policy based traffic routing (eg VoIP over fibre 1, FTP over fibre 2, etc). Also the cost of using a multi-homed IPv6 subnet & BGP in a SME/retail business is out of the question (plus the cellular ISP wouldn’t support it anyway).

All the above works fine out of the box with IPv4 and NAT. It’s bread and butter easy. At the cost of not having dedicated unique public IPs but these places simply don’t need them.

What IPv6 should have done to ensure a smooth migration is allowed for NAT from the very start. That would have let everyone who needed public IPs get them straight away, and those that didn’t to still migrate anyway with as little drama as possible. But it’s just not the case, NAT has been slowly added but it’s support is far from ubiquitous that IPv4 has.
I do believe that is the case and I have my pet layman unscientific theories too about languages. For example I believe English not being phonetic and often times pronounciation not making any sense trains people to accept things "as is", make them get over illogical things way easier. I believe this makes a someone more prone to respect authority, which was confirmed by my years in the UK. Of course life is messy and you can never be sure.

Just a toy hunch I like to think about from time to time.
I wish I could see English with its original alphabet before being forced into the confines of the latin one. Apparently many sounds are misrepresented due to that.

> You seem to take it as a given that a better way exists.

Why not deflation? Can't be worse than governments that mint trillions out of nowhere.

> Why are you so sure of that?

I'm not. Is anyone? These governments don't seem to be sure either. We wouldn't have these problems if they were.

> an additional zero or two within the span of a lifetime is not a problem waiting to be solved

The loss of purchasing power implied by those extra zeroes is a huge problem. Inflation is basically a constant unconditional tax on everyone holding the currency. This is absolutely a problem that needs to be solved. People solve it by spending or investing their money. Anything's better than holding the inflationary currency.

> You seem to imply that all inflation is inevitably a buildup for hyperinflation

Not really. All government currencies inflate. There's absolutely no doubt their value will approach zero given enough time. The only question is how quickly it will happen. Hyperinflation just means the government screwed up so bad the inflation started accelerating out of control.
I'm not a climate expert but it seems to me that planting trees is a great solution to reducing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere which we should concentrate vast amounts of effort on right after we figure out how to stop releasing decades worth of fossilised carbon every year. Until that point it's just pissing into the wind.
I see what you mean and stand corrected; I wasn't assuming the case where the product sells without advertising at all.

From a gut feeling I can say that the customer came from some result of previous advertising (as we're talking about products like sodas not life-essentials like oxygen), but I guess there's no way to know since those previous ads being tv/print ads were not tracked.

If we suddenly stopped all other forms of advertising and only used online ads, in 10-20 years each customer can be tracked exactly to what ad created the first impression about the brand and thus be more accurate (still excepting marketing like word of mouth though)

Isn't it extremely ironic that the media, which almost always has a liberal slant, would complain about "the decline of Western values"? If they want teens to stop killing themselves maybe they should also consider stopping pushing all kinds of degeneracy to them.

Also, the average Joe doesn't care about this. People won't stop using Instagram. All of these stories are nothing but masturbation for intellectuals. Thus this "uproar" is fabricated. It's not based on what people feel, but on what the media elites want them to feel.

I got severe hangovers anytime I drank when I was 16-22. I avoided alcohol for years and was surprised when I tried it again around 32 that I have to drink truly excessive amounts of alcohol to experience a hangover, and even then, it seems to be mainly dehydration.

I’m not so sure about the “zero responsibilities” statement, either. If I didn’t do my homework for certain classes I would be punished with something similar to solitary confinement.

Probably. But when Edward Teller himself states it, I tend to listen. Perhaps he said jokingly though.
This person was several levels above me in the hierarchy, and famously known to be short-tempered. Before my first meeting itself, I was given generic tips on how to handle, none of which however seemed effective.

I realized that the person was very smart and always interested in understanding everything in depth. The teams however would fail in explaining properly, which would lead him to frustration.

As he was trying to do this for a large number of domains, he was often behind in his understanding of the state of the art, would not know the jargon, acronyms, etc.

People on the other hand habitually skip defining terms they use, miss putting units on physical quantities, not label the axes of a graph, etc., all of which would instantly frustrate him.

The same thing would happen when he won't hear back crisp and/or correct answers for his questions.

Going slow with him, managing to get him understand what you had to say, he would now spot loose ends, hidden assumptions, fallacies in your arguments with ease. He would try to explain, but would be frustrated fast if the team won't get it.

With just around two-to-three meetings, I could see where his frustrations were coming from, and was then comfortably able to present to him. At some point, I started becoming known as the face of the project to put before him.

He was a nice person actually.
He would not mind accepting his mistakes, and the same applied to me. He once spotted a mistake in my analysis (the metric I was optimizing itself was not really correct) some twenty minutes into the one-hour meeting. I not only immediately accepted, but also announced that the rest of the meeting time is unneeded as I need to fix and come back later. The meeting however gracefully continued as he started focussing on other things in the presentation that were secondary but still valid.

To summarize, the true tip for working with him was to be good at explaining with simplicity and strive towards the truth. That was all.

----

In another experience, someone I worked with was again very smart, and would usually get his team to produce unquestionable results. However, he would favor people from his own cultural background more, give them undue trust, and in the process nearly humiliate people who were actually correct. In this case, I ended up changing the team.
This person at a later point heard back from the human resources team for complaints made against him, and believe that he improved after that.
> The very page you've linked lists all sorts of "features" up to level 2 but level 3 and up is all about whether the driver should take over if the car asks them to.

Thanks for making my point for me and conceding autonomy is, in fact, determined by who's responsible for safe operations and not just mistake percentage improvement.

> In fact, re-reading the levels, FSD Beta is at level 3 because:

> - You are NOT driving when the features are active (the car accelerates, stops, turns, gives way, negotiates with traffic, waits for pedestrians, changes lanes, follows navigation, etc.).

Clearly, you either didn't read the chart fully or didn't comprehend it well because you are going against Tesla's own claim that FSD is level 2. You also spectacularly missed the biggest condition why it's still level 2.

SAE level 2 in the chart says says:

> You are driving whenever these driver support features are engaged — even if your feet are off the pedals and you are not steering

> You must constantly supervise these support features; you must steer, brake or accelerate as needed to maintain safety.

Last I checked, FSD requires constant driver supervision and hands on the wheel. Tesla is very clear about this. So it is, in fact, level 2 by definition.

The key difference with level 3 is it doesn't require constant supervision — meaning a driver can read a book or watch a movie — and the system will alert in advance within a reasonable amount of time for a driver take over. Of course, nobody can really determine what "reasonable amount of time" is for a safety alert, which is why level 3 remains the most ambiguous of all the SAE levels.

You should really try to inform yourself of SAE level basics before spreading misinformation about a safety critical system.

Static IPv6 are rare by default because computers for end users should use IPv6 privacy extensions. In Ubuntu 16.04 LTS timeframe privacy extension was still broken a bit, so it did not work on every network adapter. Nowadays it just works, unless a crazy network gives you only /128.

Kind of reminds me of the early Raspberry Pi devices that were 'technically' able to replace a desktop - but would you? Probably not.

For $300-$400 it's probably a little on the high-end for a hobbyist device too. Bare in mind the early PineBook, PinePhone and PineTab were each $100 or so with similar specs.
Why do you say that? Do you think that Bitcoin is too easy to stop for governments?

Bitcoin is already used in lots of countries which suffer from inflation. It doesn't seem to be a failure. In El Salvador, there are more people with a bitcoin wallet than people with a bank account. More than 30% of people in Nigeria have used bitcoin. It's also popular in Venezuela.

FRB is not a problem, because bitcoin can and should be owned non-custodially. Paper bitcoins created by a bank wouldn't be compatible with actual bitcoins, and wouldn't expand its supply.
That's interesting! Non-standard but it doesn't matter. That's the right thing to do no matter what some piece of paper says.
