It will all sort itself out. If you can’t hire employees at a certain wage then either wages increase or the job changes. There is no other option. The “job changing” could also be changes to make it more palatable.
Reminds me of how I ended up with a U2 album on my iPhone. I never put those files there not asked for them or gave permission. Made me wonder what else could they plant on my phone.
This was driven home to me many years ago when I popped a SIM from a Mexican carrier that had an embedded Dominos Pizza app on it. Suddenly the Windows Mobile phone I was testing had a new icon on it.
Nice! We’ve been playing with some generative art as well here at Hal9, would appreciate feedback! Hal9 is a data visualization platform but we’ve find it useful for generative art as well, generative art is quite addicting.

Not only could they take 20 years to build, you have to consider how long they will actually be useful for. If we over-provision solar, wind, and batteries for the next 50 years (to deal with intermittency), then the nuclear plants may only have 30 years of operational life to amoritise their huge upfront costs over.

If you consider the cost trends of these technologies, then nuclear energy looks like an economic dead-end[0], and that's before you factor in the costs of long-term waste management, possible large scale contamination in the event of an accident or attack, and the small but potentially significant increased risk of nuclear proliferation or breakout.

Thesis: We are 20 years behind where we should be in online university education, and the only reason we are where we are now is a pandemic.

The universities were at the bleeding edge of new networked IT solutions even into the 1980s. As low-cost portable devices became available that could display high-quality real-time video on demand, it was clear that such a solution would soon be faster, cheaper and better than passively sitting in a lecture hall. And little, if anything, happened on the University side for years and years.

The occasional academician might try something, but it was spotty at best. A few years ago, there were professors who were still banning laptops from lecture rooms. Faculty Senates stuck their collective heads in the sand. They couldn’t figure out a business case where they could make money in a video future, so they ignored it. Meanwhile, students got a slower, worse, more expensive education than they could and should have.

We should be in the third or fourth generation of online university courses by now. Professionally produced and vetted lectures, hyperlinks to past and supplemental materials synced to video, diverse actors presenting material that engage various population of students more effectively. Objective measures of student learning improvements to support process quality improvements. From service courses through grad seminars. The best courses offered to not one university, but all universities (potentially). Simulators of lab equipments so students get training on the newest equipment, and aren’t learning outdated inefficient lab practices. Online networking with mentors in the real world. Effective controls on cheating on exams. These all should be mature, fully deployed technologies by now. And they aren’t.

That is the mortal sin of Higher Education in the 21st Century. They just didn’t care. I consider a lot of the political turmoil on campuses as just a smokescreen by academic leadership to distract the digital native students from asking the inconvenient questions of why is education so…clunky.

Rant mode off.
I guess the outcome was deserved
They increase the overall rate of transmission, putting everybody they're in contact with at greater risk. Especially since they're in schools, often in close contact with multiple cohorts per day. Diseases spread most quickly through densely-connected social networks. We didn't see significant transmission in children with the early variants, but with Delta, the game has changed.

Then much of science is irrational; what about those times where it's understood that a belief is false, but it also holds the most explanative power of all other considered beliefs?

And, again, the notion that something is 'clearly false' at some point presupposes perfect information about the context within which the belief is held.
Definitely. There is no sense in upgrading your current vehicle, but it might make sense for your next upgrade (which is my plan, but it might be a decade or so until my current car wears out).

There are other reasons not to go EV, like if you live in an apartment or have to deal with on street parking. That issue will take a long time to sort out.
I'd bet $1000 their HVAC system will be inadequate.

Yeah, in the "age of Covid" there are few things as stupid as sharing HVAC with 4,499 other people.
They're still small slow processors.

Sure, it's possible to design a big fast RISC-V processor to rival the M1, but nobody has done it yet.
It's price segmentation - they know that a contractor/employee who needs a battery ASAP will pay sticker price, whereas homeowners will wait for a sale.

That's us. My wife is an excellent cook, I'm completely spoiled. But she wants the weekends off cooking, and we end up looking for easy food. That's what led me down this path of 'what in the world is going on?' and similar thoughts. We're currently spending like 25 a hit(family of 3) for bland to mediocre food and inconsistent service, which just feels wrong.
I originally started off as an electrical engineer but these days I do backend and more frontend. I’m “full stack” if you will.

I very much agree with you. Eventually most “new” knowledge feels like it’s just really a new “intersection” of a few core concepts that you already know.

Can that closed source blob be bypassed and still allow compatible communication with carrier networks? Or is there some ip or contract nonsense that allows Qualcomm this stranglehold?

This seems like exactly what we dealt with in requiring phone companies to allow dialup modems to connect to whoever the customer wants, and so on. Seems shady as hell.

Or you change your product/market in a way that is more tolerant of higher wages even if it changes your target customer in a way that excludes a segment of your previous market.
This also starts to shade into just regular takeout once the prices get high enough. I rarely order from places like Five Guys unless I have a specific craving for a burger, because once I'm paying $10 for a cheeseburger, I have a whole range of takeout options in a similar price range. More often than not, I end up going for my favorite local Indian place that has excellent entrees priced around $11-13.
Second Life required you were at least 18 at one point. It was meant more for social gatherings and meeting spots and I think (though I'm not 100%) that they shifted toward "virtual" office spaces with a focus on community building and digital trade using real-life currency.

The metaverse, as I understand it, is just Facebook Games but in VR, for kids and bored adults.

I think the outcome will be the same, though. I can't imagine how anyone at Facebook thought this idea would work.
I think this is true for Twitter as well, different communities have different needs that a catch all service won't necessarily implement (for ex, stocks with stocktwits). Similar to the decomposition of Craigslist that's always referenced
Seems like the network was really obvious. If the University had wanted to stop it they would have gotten a guy with a cherry picker to just cut the crazy cables on the outside of the building. I wonder what the situation was that they tolerated this enough without providing their own network? Lots of props to the guys that built this thing!
Nix 2.4 is the first Nix release to include the flakes feature, so this is the first chance for Nix users who don't want to run cuts right off the Nix master branch to see what flakes are like, experiment with them, and give feedback.

(Previously, to use flakes you'd be running a bleeding edge build of Nix itself as well.)

This is a pretty big deal, since flakes bring a new level of determinism to `nix` as you might use it at the CLI, and other built-in Nix tools like `nixos-rebuild`, making it ‘easy’ to pin Nixpkgs and other package sources in your configs. The greater determinism (‘pure evaluation by default’, in Nix lingo) also improves performance, because it provides the Nix language evaluator with more caching opportunities.

Flakes are still contentious in some ways inside the community, and the outputs schema of flake.nix files themselves is also kinda verbose (imo), so use of helper libraries to generate outputs is pretty common. My hope as a Nix user is that this release means we can overcome both of those issues in the next year or two and make some solution for deterministic evaluation by default official in the next year or two.
I was referring to CAST5
It kind of is, though.

Grafting specimens of the same species is fairly easy - grafting onto a different species but staying in the same genus is a little less reliable but the basis of most grafted orchard trees.

Grafting to a different genus, but within the same family, is much more challenging. Not impossible, of course, but less likely to succeed, so less commonly done.

Is this place a grave? It looks more like a natural disaster scene to me. Not every place with a body is a grave. Or maybe it is? How long does a body have to be left undiscovered before we declare the area a grave?
A Five Guys about a 20 minute drive away is one of my few delivery options. Whenever I'm tempted I close the computer and maybe call my favorite local pizza place and drive 10 minutes to pick up the order. Burgers want to be eaten right away.
Not always, but for staple crops I can't think of one that isn't. Sure you can say they don't need to use GMOs in a bad way but that is not what bears out in reality. Here is selective breeding against the same qualities. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cotton_Candy_grapes

It's somewhat annoying to do the work of reading a lead in comment that carefully walks the line while giving it the benefit of the doubt, just to see follow up comments consisting of tired refrains like "masks don't work" [0] and loaded terms like "lockdown". So yes, the latter - personal reputation matters for a reason.

Forgoing context (eg cached judgements) is highly inefficient. Having to individually evaluate each bit of chaff severely undermines the ability to have productive discussion. Looking at the larger picture, destroying the discourse with nonsensical spam seems to have become the entire political game at this point. If we want to have any hope at actually addressing the issues facing us in good faith debate, we've got to upgrade our discussion forums to mitigate the noise floor.

My understanding is that airplane mode does disable the radio entirely - so the SMS card trying to send messages wouldn't work unless the baseband (which, on iOS, is signed by apple and likely not an unknown binary blob to them) turned the radio on, let it connect to the network, sent the message, then turned off the radio, all without informing the OS.
I'm willing to entertain this idea, but random chance has played a big role so far. Personally, I think we should be aiming for elimination in the human population given the damaging effects of long covid in mild cases.

Exactly. Log files are viewed in a pager, not an editor.

While tools like lnav look great, many of its features can be replicated by combining smaller, purpose built tools, i.e. the core Unix philosophy.

Single log view: cat | less

Filters: rg | less

Decompression: zless, zgrep, rg -z

Timeline view: admittedly tricky, but doable with some incantation of cut, sort or reach for the big guns: awk, perl.

Live operation: not quite, but tail -f and less +F go a long way.

I've never once in almost 20 years of looking at log files thought I needed a SQL interface to them. I'm sure it's a powerful feature, but the above approach has served me well.

Would eSIM[0] improve the state of affairs with respect to privacy?

On the one hand, as SIM circuits are now being shipped with phones, I can imagine the manufacturers having the opportunity, for the first time ever, to control the operations of a SIM such that it’s no longer a black-box. On the other hand, due to legislative and practical reasons, eSIM modules would likely be no different than those black-box baseband processors with the further downside than we would also become unable to intercept the communication between a SIM (whose circuitry is now embedded) and a phone.

I would love to read the answers of those who are more knowledgeable on the subject.

I have absolutely written a diffing algorithm like this faster much than it would take to find an appropriate version on npm.

Every so often I try to reach for an npm library, only to find out that it's suboptimal, doesn't handle my edge cases, or just plain worse than the code I would have written.

The last time I tried to do this, I wanted a hash map with custom equality functions on the keys, since JS doesn't have one built-in by default. I searched for about 2 hours and didn't find a single one that actually worked (several claimed to be, but actually didn't work...)

So I wrote my own in about 100 lines. [0]

Data structures and algorithms tend to be really awful on npm.

You can increase the price of your product. This is what’s happening throughout the entire economy - workers demand more money, wages go up, prices increase, inflation hits 5%. It’s not surprising.
I know anecdata is worthless, but we're coming up on the anniversary of my latest layoff so it's still fresh in my mind. It was Nov. 9, a Monday. And of course I wasn't alone.

Going postal wasn't an option, everybody was working remote. I had to bring my work computer back to the office, and I had less hassle than I expected getting access to my desk to pack my personal belongings.

My guess is that the counter and water on it are slightly warmer then the shot glass. What this does is first traps air inside the glass since it is wet. Now the glass heats up and with it the density of the air decreases and expands because it too is warming up and some of the air escapes pushing the glass. The air escaping is not easy to see but I would wager that is what is happening. I had a glass of ice water move like this once.
Edit: I am also guessing your counter is slightly not level and that is why is goes that way. The air escaping you won’t really see it is ever so slight like the shot glass burping and lifting ever so slightly on one side and the glass moves then.

Yes and soaking scientifically doesn't affect it either.

>Gray and his colleagues developed a method for extracting most of the alpha-galactosides from beans. The beans are boiled for three minutes (effectively killing the bean and allowing the sugars to pass through the cell walls), then allowed to stand for two hours. That water is poured off and the beans are covered and soaked for another two hours. Then they’re drained, covered and soaked another two hours before being drained and rinsed a final time.

>This method succeeded in ridding the beans of 90% of the troublesome sugars, but as you might expect, there was a side effect. “I used to do this blanch-soak method all the time at home and it works very nicely,” Gray says. “The one thing people who ate dinner with us have noted is that you do lose some flavor.”

>What’s more -- without going into details of what they measured and how -- suffice it to say that even with almost all of the alpha-galactosides gone, there wasn’t a consistent marked decrease in human flatulence.

>“We reduced the alpha-galactoside content by 90% but we haven’t done anything to dietary fiber,” says Gray, “and dietary fiber produces similar effects.”
