> No, this is not true. As well as being unintentionally incompetent, lazy, not keeping up with best practices etc., people get emotionally invested in their company, their teams, their project, their careers and cause them to knowingly and actively participate in these things even if they may not directly (or at all) stand to gain financially.

Once again, my assertion is that the motivation is typically not coming bottom-up from the engineers themselves, but top-down from senior management and stakeholders. Competent engineers who work in aviation, automotive, construction, etc. are generally motivated to avoid failure conditions. I'd actually be keen to know if you have any significant examples to the contrary - undoubtedly they exist.

I'm not sure how you could fill the role of CEO, with a strong profit motive, and not be at conflict with an engineering mindset. It's possible that Elon is more scrupulous than most, and better placed to anticipate failure modes with his engineering background, but his messaging particularly on FSD has been leaned more towards market optimism, driving sales, generating investment, than the safety of passengers.

I don't, but I don't lionize Tesla or Elon either.

> you would think the sinking feeling I get before I brace myself to look stupid would go away

I can highly recommend reading, or listening to "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!". Asking "stupid" questions does not automatically make you intelligent, but it is a trait of highly intelligent people, exactly because of the reasons you describe.

We all know the story about how Newton asked why an apple fell to the ground, surely a lot of people would have thought you're a total idiot for asking that, and yet at the same time no-one would have been able to explain why.

The reason stupid questions are uncomfortable is that you're very likely to insinuate other people don't know the answer to a simple question, and we don't like making other people uncomfortable. Which is why you have to be humble when asking them.
My argument is that walterbell's comment does not seem supported by the evidence. I pointed out the weaknesses in my comment. It happens that those weakness sound like anti-vaxxer FUD, which I pointed out, but that is not my main objection.

Nor is it the same as labelling walterbell an anti-vaxxer.

Thank you for supporting my freedom of speech to point out how this sounds like anti-vaxxer FUD.

Not finished reading yet but this uses the outdated stats that claim nuclear kills less people than solar and wind. Which isn't a good sign.

It's also claiming that centralisation equals efficiency. Is this really the best argument nuclear has to offer?

Okay so that wasn't very good. Just standard renewable bashing disguised as being a fan of the sadly neglected nuclear.

The key thesis seems to be: renewables came down in price because they were subsidized.

I'd argue the opposite is true, they were subsidized initially because it was obvious they would become price competitive.

What even is the point of writing an article about what we should have done decades ago (which I actually agree with) if your super weak conclusion is just "well renewables might not be perfect".

It's hard to tell if this is first generation climate change denial or just secondary effects of decades of propaganda. Still dangerous nonsense though.
The architecture of the web (REST), always had intermediaries as first-class citizens. I can recommend reading into Fielding's dissertation!

The declarative and stateless message design is partly motivated by the need for intermediaries processing and understanding the messages (ie POST must not be cached f.e.).

I think the introduction explained it very well: The original design generalized too much for the needs of 2021 by putting all caches into a single bucket.
Having said that, Bevan said this of the way he convinced doctors to join the NHS: "I stuffed their mouths with gold."
I mean, given the number of new implementations of APL that are being actively worked on, there is clearly some interest.

The most prominent such dialect is BQN, which I definitely recommend anyone interested in APL-like languages to take a look at. https://mlochbaum.github.io/BQN/

APLwiki has a list of other languages: https://www.aplwiki.com/wiki/Language_overview#Dialects

Disclaimer, I'm the developer of one of these dialects so of course I'm biased.

This is a really nice way of thinking about it. Thanks for sharing this.
Phosphorus would be better example. Even if you take only part of organic matter away, as long as it's faster than phosphorus availability from rock weathering, there's going to be a reckoning eventually.

Sure it can be added via fertilizer...if we'll be able to source such a quantity. It's not very abundant.
The Art of the Sales Engineer: Your Secret Weapon for Sales Nirvana
How much of a lab environment do you have? ZnSe lenses were infamous at the laser lab I worked at - I mean, sure, if you're not machining ZnSe, that reduces possible exposure to its toxicity (or rather, ZnSe releasing selenide), if you make sure you follow recommended handling advice.

But still, if something goes wrong, a lens chips and there are bits of ZnSe in the corners of your room, can you quarantine that room and make sure you get every single piece of it?

Edit: As an alternative to thermal lenses, you could set up a mirror instead for imaging - hobby astronomy supplies have imaging mirrors - those could be used to construct a thermo-optical telescope.

Edit2: There is a tutorial how to build a raspberry Pi-based reflector telescope[0]. The nice thing about it is that you don't need any second mirror or lens for looking through it - the camera sensor is in the imaging plane of the first mirror. That telescope (a 'cut' Newton telescope) could be used as a blueprint - if you want a larger field of view, you'd have to find a higher curvature mirror and adapt the telescope (a smaller design).

Edit3: Instead of an on axis, rotationally symmetric mirror, you could use an off-axis curved mirror, like these aluminum coated ones [1], which is a cheap option. Then you can just put a thermal IR-sensor in the focal plane of the mirror and have a thermal optical setup focused at infinity (with the opticla axis going around the corner).

Yes, that's the usual assumption when working with Turing machines and proofs. But I guess you could also allow infinite inputs and it wouldn't make that much difference, e.g. computing exp(x) for some real x as input.
Preppers aren't just a bunch of American right-wingers locked up in remote cabins with large stockpiles of food and valuables (although those people certainly exist).

Most of us prepare for short-term disruptions that are far more likely than hordes of undead roaming the streets. If widespread societal collapse should actually happen, then having a strong local community, and knowing how to co-operate and communicate with one's neighbours is far more important than having enough canned tuna to last to Ragnarok and back. That being said, having survival skills and basic supplies can come in handy in a wide range of situations.

Personally, I'm preparing for more basic things like long power outages, extreme weather and supply chain disruptions. Sure, we got food, fuel and supplies for a few months at home, and it's been very handy during the pandemic, while being snowed in for a week a few winters ago, and when being without power for two days last summer -- I could keep working like any other day, and didn't lose any income.

Yes, that includes some cash. It's been handy a few times when the card terminals at the store wasn't working. Storing large piles of it seems an unnecessary risk, though.

"Money Laundering" is the narrative that always drives monetary controls, and by inference, when they're successful, everything that's not under digital surveillance is under suspicion of money-laundering. In practice, AML laws don't protect from large sums being washed by nefarious billionaires at all - as we well know, the existing banking systems with their tax and reporting havens are well able to handle large amounts of official money officially, and still out of sight. In practice, AML is a narrative that serves to legitimize controls on quite lower levels - in the 1000s. 2% of cash unaccounted for is nothing, and - I mean, preaching to the choir here - to try to hinder surveillance regimes (in the sociological sense, not the dictatorship sense) is absolutely legitimate for every normal person.

Also, western privilege: western banks rarely close their doors and leave you without access to your digital money, and rarely hyperinflate it away without any recourse (though they also have, historically). While cash doesn't protect against the second danger, it well protects against the first -within- western countries. Now, in other places hoarding Euros and Dollars, it protects against both.

Anit-Money-Laundering (AML) laws, in practice, do not protect us from greedy billionaires. They protect surveillance and hyperinflation states from citizens trying to protect themselves against them.
It does seem that most of the prominent entrepreneurs of our age are focused on tech. Before that it was finance, and going back further, steel, oil and railroad. In the future, I expect to see more bioengineering.
Not really. The main reason Vienna have rental prices below other European capitals is because it was one of the few cities that actually lost a significant part of its population multiple times. It was the capital of a big empire that was destroyed and they incorporated to a different Empire that also was destroyed.

Lots of people left to other cities that were not as bureaucratic looking for opportunities an oversized capital without Empire could not sustain.

BTW, It was not pretty. Lots of families that used to live in Vienna now live in Israel for a reason.

You could say the same thing about Detroit in the US.

It's all about reading the room. If you're talking to a hostile crowd you're not going to expose weakness. I hope that most of these internal alignment meetings are not hostile, and are instead conducted with the intent to best deliver value to the business. In these instances, I have found comments like "I'm sorry to ask a basic question here..." work well to explain that I probably don't have as much domain experience as the others in the room; that I'm not trying to school them on their domain; and that I'm simply trying to gain understanding so that I can contribute.
I wonder how long does take for bamboo to grow and if it can grow in US and Europe. Maybe it's economically viable to grow bamboo instead of cutting down trees.
Mono is quite worthless server-side compared to .net core 5.
You're not wrong with the description, although I would counter that you don't have to be smarter than anyone else - even if just a fraction of people is undervaluing an asset, you can still make a profit.

I think Elon is a good example of that - a lot of coverage in the past years focused on missed production numbers and that sent his reputation into a tailspin. But anyone who actually bought and drove a Tesla knew that the cars were ahead of their time and that the rest of the country would eventually catch on.

What I've always missed with "Traditional TA" is a rigorous accounting of how to do it, and what the results are.

You can do this yourself on a spreadsheet:

- Get some data

- Calculate the 50 bar moving average

- apply some rule like "trade when it crosses this or that stat"

- See what the PnL is.

- Think about whether this is a fluke and whether it will keep working.

Somehow none of the ads and articles I see do this completely.

But yes, you can take the same data and use it effectively. Needs more than a spreadsheet, admittedly.

The article already explains this. What you said is only true in C99 (and they indeed show the return value of the overall program is 0 when compiled in that mode). In C89 it's undefined behaviour, so a warning when you do this would be very sensible.
In my experience magit version is much faster to use since you can simply select which lines you want to stage without having to refine the hunk.
Better is in the eye of the beholder; in my business you can choose .net or Jvm. And then c# or Java, not f# or clojure.
Also do you have your dashcam automatically backing up into the cloud as it records? Or at least, paperwork proving you had a dashcam in your car?

Most of your comments were only possible because you are still using version 2.8 where you apparently never enabled optional (at the time) single-window mode, and also because you previously closed the Tool Options and Layers docks for some reason. Moreover, window layout is preserved across sessions just fine, as long as I can remember myself using GIMP, which is 22 years, plus I never saw a bug report like this before (and I saw LOTS). So it's your local bug.

So basically the vast majority of your problems with GIMP are self-inflicted, there's a local bug that only happens for you, and then there's the save/export separation that is, let's say, debatable.

Nevertheless, thank you for going into details.

Keras tickets closed due to inactivity but no fix
Do you have some history of technology sources to back up this claim?

Because even radar was first developed for the civilian setting before the military boosted its development tremendously to solve their WW2 related needs.

I think a much better theory of technological development is that the military mainly funds engineering development of existing technology and doesn't stumble into truly new inventions faster than anyone else.

A corollary to this is that most tech is not related to military spending because most spending is not military spending.
Add Thomas Happ (Axiom Verge) to that list.

How about a BBC article that avoids the term, but makes a similar point? https://www.bbc.com/news/health-58270098

> There is a whole different suite of antibodies (known as immunoglobulin As) in the nose and lungs, compared with those (immunoglobulin Gs) that we measure in the blood. The former is more important as a barrier to infection. Natural infection, because it is in the nose rather than a jab in the arm, may be a better route to those antibodies, and nasal vaccines are being investigated too.

Or a July 2021 paper from academics advising UK SAGE, https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/long-term-evoluti...

> Whilst we feel that current vaccines are excellent for reducing the risk of hospital admission and disease, we propose that research be focused on vaccines that also induce high and durable levels of mucosal immunity in order to reduce infection of and transmission from vaccinated individuals. This could also reduce the possibility of variant selection in vaccinated individuals.

When a layperson hears the term "immunity", they often equate this term with their experience of a vaccine like the MMR vaccine, which is one and done, rather than monthly reductions of effectiveness, followed by semi-annual boosters. This paper explains one cause of the confusion, i.e. blood/serum vs nose/mucosal immunity, https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7733922/

> The mucosal immune system is the largest component of the entire immune system, having evolved to provide protection at the main sites of infectious threat: the mucosae. As SARS-CoV-2 initially infects the upper respiratory tract, its first interactions with the immune system must occur predominantly at the respiratory mucosal surfaces, during both inductive and effector phases of the response. However, almost all studies of the immune response in COVID-19 have focused exclusively on serum antibodies and systemic cell-mediated immunity including innate responses.

A layperson can understand that a respiratory virus is first encountered in the nose, not their arm muscle.

That's why recovery from Covid nasal infection provides nasal/mucosal immunity (i.e. prevention of infection via defenses in upper respiratory tract) and a muscle-injected vaccine provides symptom reduction after nasal infection, via blood/serum antibodies.
I guess it depends on the average relative valuation (i.e. are more people undervaluing that person to a greater degree than those overvaluing them?). But this also seems to depend on some kind of great man theory of business history. Plenty of people smarter than Jobs or Gates have failed, just due to the vicissitudes of life, if nothing else.
That is only true for automatic firearms, and only partially true for them.

Usually the modifications are reducing the strength of the springs, or enlarging the gas port. There's really no reason to ad "valves" or anything in the barrel its self.

Given the time period of the movie, an automatic firearm is unlikely anyway, so I'd be inclined to think that this is not the case.
