Assuming you're talking about your job, I'm not sure this is the same as "practicing" C++ for 3-4 hours the way you would practice piano. For us programmers there's usually no difference between practice and "the real stuff" unless you consider side projects as practice but that's "outside" our job.
I like how the article takes a hard turn from statistics:

> Americans are expected to spend a record $10B+ on Halloween items in 2021, up from $8B last year — and pumpkins are a big player: Among the 65% of Americans celebrating Halloween this year, 44% (~94m people) plan to carve one.

Straight to vague generalities:

> While pumpkins can readily be found at most grocery stores, many folks turn to a patch to procure their autumnal canvas.

It's like the person writing the article went in wanting to write about pumpkin patches but pumpkin patches aren't as common as they hoped so they plowed ahead anyway.
But the bar will always be set higher and higher.

Oh, it's safer than all other reactors ever designed? Yeah, but it isn't PERFECT, is it? What if I <impossible scenario>? Then it might be dangerous!

Oh, it has 1/10th the nuclear waste of all other reactors ever? But it STILL MAKES NUCLEAR WASTE.

Oh, it can be built at half the cost of previous reactors for twice the energy? THAT'S STILL WAY TOO MUCH.

And to be clear, I think renewables are major important part of the solution. But waiting for them to meet the demand that nuclear can hit immediately means decades of dirty energy generation. We need to do both renewables and nuclear right now.
You're right of course, I wasn't trying to weigh them against each other. The .sh is for a pet project. I just added it to the comment because I happened to have that data point available from around the same time.

One thing that feels a bit strange to me is that he uses timelines of 1000 years when calculating nuclear reserves. I don’t believe we need a plan for the next 1000 years - think of what our understanding of power generation and transmission was a millennium ago. Assuming that we will still be using the same technologies in 1000 years seems a bit pessimistic to me.
Seems you guys should start up :)

Btw I think the hard part is probably not he implementation of Ethernet, but getting hardware vendors on board. Midi 2.0 needed a lot of companies to be on board for the change.

Perhaps if you make adapters and translate devices to help folks transition.
I've had the opposite experience; I've used the same Bluetooth headphones, mouse, and keyboard with two work machines (a MacBook and a Linux tower) and my personal Windows machine.

Windows is rock-solid, just works with no problems.

Linux works mostly fine, with occasional audio stuttering issues that go away after a few seconds.

The MacBook is an unusable nightmare. If I ever try to use a mic or webcam of any sort while the headphones are connected, the whole Bluetooth stack immediately crashes and doesn't recover for at least an entire minute, usually more like 2-3 minutes. Also, sometimes this happens just randomly anyways with no discernable pattern or cause. Also, sometimes the Bluetooth stack forgets my keyboard exists, and I have to walk back through the pairing process again (this happens 1-3 times per month). Then there are times when it randomly shuffles scroll speed on my mouse.

If it weren't so frustrating how unusable the macOS Bluetooth stack is, it would be almost funny in a "hidden-camera-prank-show" sort of way.

I've switched to working full-time on my Linux tower (also provided by my employer) and it's been a tremendous quality of life improvement. On the rare occasions that I have issues, I can usually get to the bottom of the problem and fix it. With the MacBook, I'm lucky if I get "Something went wrong :(", and all the voodoo remedies I've seen online haven't helped.
Well based in the history, the United Nations Climate Change conference, or COP, started at Germany in 1995. There Merkel should play a central role. Looking back on her time in the Ministry of the Environment. Fast forward to 1998, the government of Gerhard Schroeder (SPD) reached what became known as the “nuclear consensus” with the big utilities. They agreed to limit the lifespan of nuclear power stations to 32 years. Add to it the (in)famous “German angst” caused after the Fukushima accident. With that narrative, built over the time, it will be very hard to change the actual scenario.

Bubble.io Review: a flexible no code app builder
Here is a way of defining precedence that is quite general:
https://obua.com/publications/practical-types/1/
(Search for APP_PRIO in the document to get to where this is talked about)

Basically, an expression "A + B" is given a certain precedence, and both A and B are expected to have higher precedence. You can modify that by putting a ` in front of any nonterminal, for example "`A + B", which means that A can have indeed the same precedence as "A + B". This way you can specify associativity, and this works also in other cases, for example "∀ x. `P" means that something like "∀ x. ∀ y. x = y" parses correctly instead of having to write "∀ x. (∀ y. x = y)"

Almost all of the pro-nuclear crowd misses that nuclear is just too expensive.
Nobody brought a convincing argument why e.g. China wouldn't push Nuclear way more if nuclear would economically be viable - there are no "activists" over there that would stop them from building thousands of reactors.

Additionally, most calculations that result in somewhat competitive prices for nuclear energy dismiss the implied subsidies (state guarantees as nuclear plants are uninsurable, waste handling until eternity) which are massive.

Yes it's very different from regular chess.

But you learn very fast common attacks and defenses since you experience a magnitude more games playing with some time limits.

You could make the argument a lot of those moves should happened in the players mind - and the timer should just accommodate that.

But this is a tradeoff and depends on the players preferences. For instance I'm having tons of fun meeting hundreds of players with different styles and quirks and it makes it a really fun fast paced game that's still essentially just chess.

I think this bias against small companies and individuals is easily explained, at least in the USA where I live. This probably applies to the EU also:

Large corporations buy influence via lobbying, revolving door policies, etc. so expect governments to set in place policies to protect large incumbents from smaller rivals. So many modern problems would be reduced if we could get rid of the deep systemic corruption.

Why? Apple has always stated they don't want to be in an enterprise like market. It stifles innovation. While you can keeps adding features to your product you can never take away from it. Ex: x86 and Windows. Meanwhile Apple has removed entire CPU functionality from their chips since the release of the iPhone 4S. This was easy because they only had to deal with their own developers. This keeps them agile and able to change from 1 release to another.
Work on projects you want to use? I do that. They're nothing spectacular but I enjoy using them regularly. I use work as a source of income. I'm reasonably proud of the things I've done.

Have you actually weighed the value that you're getting out of Google services versus the privacy that you (and people) are trading off? Because I feel that people are blindly saying that and are overestimating the value. Let's see:

* Google Maps - great navigation and place accuracy, in exchange for your real-time geolocation and social media posts tagging places

* YouTube - free video hosting in exchange for your data being fed to ML algorithms, which make them billions; also now a great source of disinformation

* Google Photos - free image hosting also in exchange of your enabling of their billion-dollar ML-based businesses

I think I'm making the point in the above examples that they're making more money than what we're turning over, but please feel free to tell me--what other great value do we derive from Google products do we derive from our data?

American Airlines cancels more than 1500 flights over the weekend
I think this fact is under-appreciated. It has undermined most of the quantitative analysis done in the past. So most of the analysis available is stale.

It has also undermined a lot of business plans - even those based on renewables. For example the Xlink project in the UK - this involved building a huge solar PV plant (with complimentary wind and battery storage) in Morocco where panels are twice as efficient and an underwater HVDC cable to the UK. The problem is that panel prices have dropped so much, that it's now cheaper, easier and quicker to just buy twice as much PV panels and site them in the UK - compensating for the relative lack of efficiency in northern Europe by volume of panels.

This is why there's huge growth in utility solar PV in northern and western Europe in the last year or two despite the less-than-ideal conditions there - the panels are just so cheap that the lack of optimal efficiency becomes a non-issue.

My prediction is that wind, solar and batteries will dominate because they're riding on the benefits of mass-production - the capital cost for these is dominated by off-the-shelf component costs - installation is relatively trivial. This has delivered continuous and steep price declines while the prices for other forms of generation are stagnant (coal) or rising (nuclear). And there's no sign that the fall in prices is stopping at the moment so their price/value advantage will only grow in future.

Even with a framework like this, it’s hard to get past the visceral fear if failure. It’s only with practicing failure do we get accustomed to it.

I'll agree the Sync isn't as good as Google, but I find the Microsoft Office 365 apps so much better if you need to spend lots of time in them every day. I've used the google alternatives and there are always limitations you end up hitting (As an example, I was working in google docs the other day and was pretty surprised that I couldn't even choose a custom page size and in order to set a custom page size I had to download an add-in - this sort of thing means the products just don't feel as built-out as the Microsoft ones).

Nuclear emphatically can provide enough scaling to follow the broad diurnal solar cycle and the duck curve.

> Historically, nuclear power plants were built as baseload plants, without load following capability to keep the design simple. Their startup or shutdown took many hours as they were designed to operate at maximum power, and heating up steam generators to the desired temperature took time.[2]

> Modern nuclear plants with light water reactors are designed to have maneuvering capabilities in the 30-100% range with 5%/minute slope. Nuclear power plants in France and in Germany operate in load-following mode and so participate in the primary and secondary frequency control.

Also this is what we are capable of now. Imagine what we could do with advances in thermal storage. Nuclear has one huge advantage over other power sources: you can simply throw more power at the problem. E2E efficiency is less of a factor when you have excess capacity you can't otherwise do anything with.

Yeah the fact that valuations of stock prices is flexible, up to the market, and changes over time is definitely a feature and not a bug. I also see it as a good thing to organise the economy increasingly around innovation and less around growth, makes perfect sense to me, seems like a natural consequence of more automation.

That’s an interesting idea, specifically the privacy bounty part, I imagine one of the difficulties here would be who handles the adjudication of it’s a privacy issue or not /you get paid or not.
I think the bad writing in D3 is a weird consequence of WoW's success. Either because they hoped to attract part of WoW's audience, or for the simple fact that a lot of Blizzard's staff at the time had also worked on WoW and were more familiar with that style, both Starcraft II and Diablo III suffered from a cartoony art direction and a story that didn't take itself very seriously compared to their predecessors.

In Diablo II, Diablo greets you with "Not even death can save you from me", one of the most iconic lines in all of gaming, creepy and to the point.

In Diablo III, Diablo holds an entire monologue explaining the boss mechanics, something like, "Now you're trapped in my realm, you can only escape by defeating the shadows, but none have ever managed to do that har har har". You can't get emotionally invested in a world with writing like that.
You can however question platforming an entity with such a shitty history or at least contextualise it like in the op.
Don't you guys have phones?
I don't understand what you mean. Just because it's cheap, how is it suddenly not a consideration anymore whether we want to fill a large share of nature or farmland with PV, batteries, wind? There are more considerations than cost.

Also because one needs to keep in mind that renewable electricity is only about 10% of the energy demand. I sometimes see headlines like "61% of electricity in Germany came from wind last month!" which kind of miss the point, as that means we have only 94% to go. We really need a huge amount of surface area if we want to go for a monoculture of wind and solar power with battery storage.

Edit to be clear: I'm not against wind or solar or batteries. We will most definitely need it and must invest in both building them and innovating them further (in that order of priorities). But I also think we cannot just rely on them solving the whole problem. (Sometimes it is also assumed that this plummeting price curve will continue at the same rate for at least another decade, which I suspect is also not going to materialize.)
Blizzard had a ton of sexual harrassment internally that the company didn't care about.

I'm not sure I follow this. Nuclear power is significantly less deadly than coal and that's just talking about accidents in power generation. If you include general death by radiation pollution, that difference grows more disparate (coal energy production emits an enormous amount of radiation into the atmosphere as pollution).
Not enough data presented in the article to say. All it included was foreground app changes, so based on that you'd just get Terminal opening log messages.
We should be exploring all promising avenues of treatment, recognizing that not every avenue will prove effective or suitable for every person.

Incidentally, there is movement on the psilocybin front[1], so I don't think there's a legitimate reason for such a cynical comment on this article. Can we discuss one avenue of inquiry without mentioning another with the intent of being negative?

It's been weird watching the knee-jerk renaming and rewriting of things by WoW staff as a result. Weird choices like removing the "consort" title from female NPCs, but not male. As if the word "consort" itself had a negative connotation, but only for one segment of the population. It's like they have no direction, and think they can solve something by awkward in-game gestures.
Honest question: Did you read my post and write that all by yourself? If yes, why are you so hostile to the idea that music can be effectively communicated through writing and reading? Yes, you can teach a beginner to strum a few chords without any context, but once you want to play with others you need some concepts to be able to communicate and when you have to learn those concepts writing them down is the easy part.

Your language course sounds really odd to me and I'm not sure if I should believe it actually happened.
