Author here. A few other Rust projects to note that I didn't mention in the original post I've since found:

- Boa (JS engine in Rust) – https://github.com/boa-dev/boa

- RSLint (JS/TS linter in Rust) – https://github.com/rslint/rslint

- Node version manager in Rust – https://github.com/Schniz/fnm

If you know of any other popular ones, let me know. I'm keeping a list :)
I think you’re misunderstanding. While true, their point is only applicable to a vanishingly small amount of the population. For example, soy allergies are only listed as a 0.4% rate of prevalence. I don’t think that’s enough for an absolutist claim that applies to the other 99.6% of humans. It comes across as cherry picking, bad faith, or just not understanding the data.

If I cherry pick the first Google scholar link that is showing a 2.3% seafood allergy, would you conclude that all people should abstain from fish?

It’s not a question of whether a particular food (let alone an entire group like plants) can cause inflammation, but whether it’s prevalent enough problem to claim people should completely cut it from their diet. You alluded too this with the caveat “in those who are susceptible”. We shouldn’t generalize a rule for those who are susceptible to be applicable to those who are not.
Ah. I see.

BTW, may I suggest that you take a look at Nim. Pretty slick for graphics:

I'm a bit confused by what you mean by "strong case". Flying emits substantially more carbon dioxide (by more than a factor of 100, IIRC). The deleterious effects of increasing CO2 in the atmosphere are well-documented. Isn't that a strong enough case?
In most European capitals there are great public transportation options to get to the central train stations and they are almost always better than to get to the airport as it is more far from residential areas
Currently you can get the metadata graph and contents of conversations for most messenger usage today.

Now with signal and other E2EE messengers, you can just get the metadata graph, maybe. Not using the standard set of servers makes you stand out in a different way metadata wise, and more vulnerable, because you don't have as much labor available to secure your personal network, which is what your hinting at. It's partly why tor is a public network, because they want more noise in metadata analysis, and why you want to use VPN providers, so it's not just "you" that is aggregating your traffic.

The 3rd era will do both in a usable way, but usable ones don't really exist yet. All you have is research messengers.

One step at a time. Perfect is the enemy of good, or something better.

I mean, have you ever heard of tragedy of the commons?

1) All people share one atmosphere
2) Well-reviewed science shows that individual decisions like taking a flight make the atmosphere less hospitable for all.

That type of problem is literally the reason the term externality was coined.
I don't think SA is something to be celebrated. The abuse and the manner he chose his exit seems relevant. Its a bit disturbing that so many people wax lyrical about SA even after giving it a decade of space, even while they acknowledge the way that the misanthropy led to punching down and bullying behavior.
None of those would be used by target group for LOGO.

It's the low-end of Siemens PLC, and the high level (S7-1200/1500) is much more different, does OPC UA, can support MQTT if I recall corre tly, and you can get SoftPLC options which integrate a windows environment with an API.
Conventional HSR is generally feasible up to about 1000km distance. The largest city in EU + UK/Switzerland (Paris) is within about 1000km of 13 of the next 19 largest cities (and connects 16 of the next 20 largest!), with Budapest, Katowice, Warsaw, Athens, Naples, and Lisbon all much further than 1000km. And Paris isn't exactly centrally situated.

HSR routes that connect all of the major cities in Europe together is a completely feasible proposition, although obviously the extremities of that route aren't going to be viable for thru traffic. Most of the population of Europe happens to live in a relatively compact region, and so most of the intercity traffic could easily be captured by a conventional HSR.
Very creative approach!

I'm curious whether they got the deposit on their apartment back, given that apartments in Beijing are usually furnished, so probably the furniture was the landlord's. Could go either way: the landlord might be impressed at the added utility, or upset at the changes.
Not sure if there are studies, but I don't think it likely. It is almost natural to suppose that infection confers a broader antigenic stimuli than just a single spike protein for a single variant.
What if the state of IsHireable changes in the system of record (SFDC)? Will Hightouch overwrite OLTP data with stale warehouse data?
I despise this common attitude of letting “good people” off the hook.

If you work for one of these companies, there is no clever self-justification. You can either lie to yourself or own the truth. Doesn’t matter if you’re on some VR offshoot division of Facebook. You are part of all the terrible damage and death they cause.
Even if a smart lock used ROT13 encryption, the easiest way to defeat it is still probably a mechanical attack. The state of mechanical security is a whole new level of weak.
I briefly browsed the Stuttgart 21 article but didn't quite get why people are opposing it. Would you mind to elaborate?
This is still true, but to a matter of degree. Even in the feature flagged deploys mixed with canary the permutations are all evident, and ideally tested.

Also, you wouldn’t expect a schema change to occur with code that requires it. Those will need to happen earlier.

Real systems are complex. A monorepo is one attempt at capping the complexity to known permutations. For smaller teams, it might collapse to a single one.
Then do electric aircraft. We can do 500-1000 mile electric air travel. Longer term, >3000 mile. Plus multiple hops. Still faster and cheaper than rail.
I'm not sure about Europe, but certainly in Canada, even the very best of our train service (Toronto <-> Montreal) struggles to compete on convenience. Flight time for that route is 80 mins vs just under 5hrs for the "express" train that still makes 5 intermediate stops.

And those are on twinned, dedicated passenger tracks where you never have to wait on a siding for a freight train to go by in the other direction, like you do with the Toronto -> Vancouver train that takes multiple days end to end.

Anyway, they keep studying HSR for the route, so much so that a prominent Canadian comedian made a joke video about it almost a decade ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W32klYkTxCQ

But it's definitely a chicken and egg thing; it'll never gain significant market share under current conditions, but no politician can justify the money required to properly build HSR with current ridership numbers. But of course billions [1] for a new toll highway directly through protected greenbelt farmland (Hwy 413)? Ram it all through! Will it lose money and eventually be sold off to a foreign interest for pennies on the dollar similar to how Hwy 407 was twenty years ago? Probably!

Externalities are basically by definition the things that can't be determined by a free market.
Floor plate loading is 50-250lbs/sqft over the entire area, with hotspots far greater. If what you really wanted was trees you could put them in there. I think he may have meant more just an open green area.

Markets are not efficient at considering externalities at all.
A technical background may be helpful for understanding IP, but certainly not sufficient. Compare Massie to someone like Stephan Kinsella (BS and MS in electrical engineering and a law degree) who literally wrote a book called "Against Intellectual Property."

I love your philosophy. Just embrace entropy, what could go wrong?

I'm 'commenting too fast' to reply, but show me any of your examples in flight please.
I keep seeing articles like this and I keep being a bit disappointed that they mostly adopt techniques that were developed for general knowledge workers ("personal knowledge management system") or ideas by/for writers or researchers, and don't seriously think about how to treat/manage code.

A brain isn't just about knowledge; it's also a set of skills, capacities, patterns of behavior. Software is an area it's possible to capture capacities in the form of code that actually does stuff. This article makes brief mention of code snippets, but only really to remark on the kinds of metadata that one should keep to find them later.

What I have yet to see a satisfying description of, and what I sometimes try to work towards myself, is a mashup of a library with a knowledge management system, where notes link to code, and both go together in a common repo. However, depending on the kinds of things one stores, the software/library side can stumble over some challenges, and I haven't quite figured out how to keep the overhead spent on maintaining it low. One might have small pieces of code in many languages, or different versions of the same language (e.g. making notes about macros in scala 2.x vs scala 3), and notes made at different times might incidentally become dependent on differing specific versions of library (e.g. ideas in statistical analysis that use pandas).

It is important for you to know that his suicide was most likely a direct reaction to an unfavorable court ruling that he was not at all expecting to turn out this way.

I'm not sure, but my gut instinct is that it wouldn't help. Dyslexia rates are much lower in China, so if I suppose we could start naming files with Chinese characters (on systems that support Unicode). It would take a bit to get used to, but eventually we'd develop a pidgin language for when we talk about software, much like how if you overhear Chinese or Vietnamese developers they will mix in English words like "linked list" into their sentences, because there's not a more natural sounding alternative.

Switching to Chinese would also help eliminate the spaces issue.
Ding ding ding! This is right on the money. The next time that some admin hack comes out talking about "transitory inflation", there will be no high dislike count to undermine the message. It's all about keeping us unquestioning and obedient. Anyone who thinks this is remotely related to "protecting creators" is delusional.

Do batteries that can power a plane for routes like this exist yet? I know nothing about aviation, but I always thought the energy needed to spin up a turbine, or prop, is immense.
The best approach is to not build a knowledge management system for yourself until you need it. When you've forgotten something you need a few times, maybe it's time to set up a "common notes" file that you can check first for those things that won't stick. Then when that gets unwieldy, maybe split it into a folder of organized notes with a grep or fuzzy search in front of it (or one of those note-taking apps). When that stops working for you, pull out bigger guns and build something that works specifically for how you use it.

By waiting until you actually need it, you skip a lot of the work in maintaining a knowledge base you don't use, and you only build out the bits you actually need, instead of wasting a bunch of effort on things that sound nice, but won't actually help.
I started using OneNote this year. I create a weekly "Note" where I throw all my notes in during a week. This includes a weekly ToDo checklist, a note section per meeting, and then random thoughts, code/log snippits, or whatever else I need.

It's not perfect, but it's the best solution I've found so far. I've tried every note taking method out there and I always fall off after a few months. I think this is working for me because it has the quality of a general wiki, but I start fresh every week, so I don't have to worry about carrying over or linking "knowledge" for the most part.
> but how is uber more convenient than train?

Different things are good for different people. I can get in an Uber and take a nap or take phone calls and know that I'll arrive at my destination, eventually. No need to keep track of connections or transportation to and from a station or anything else.

Having all options presented robustly grants everyone the best of both worlds.

The same argument could be made to block any kind of third-party app that could replace a native feature. Why is it so unreasonable to expect a platform vendor to test compatibility with third party software running on their platform? It is the primary reason why the platform exists!
Nops, because of antigenic imprinting.

From the wiki (that prefers the annoying name Original Antigenic Sin, probably invented by a theist)

"Original antigenic sin, also known as antigenic imprinting or the Hoskins effect,[1] refers to the propensity of the body's immune system to preferentially utilize immunological memory based on a previous infection when a second slightly different version of that foreign pathogen (e.g. a virus or bacterium) is encountered. This leaves the immune system "trapped" by the first response it has made to each antigen, and unable to mount potentially more effective responses during subsequent infections. Antibodies or T-cells induced during infections with the first variant of the pathogen are subject to a form of original antigenic sin, termed repertoire freeze."

To the extent that's true (and it clearly is), it exerts even more upward price pressure on the Skodas, since demand is going unfilled. In reality, it will take about a year to receive a 992 ordered now. They can't make anything in the volume needed to satisfy demand.

In addition to data points, safety determinations also take time. Prior to 2020, it took 4-10 years (though sometimes longer like chicken pox shot) for vaccine approval in USA.

When did we have discussions and thoughts and reasoned policy change on the _time_ aspect of safety testing? While some things like asbestos have uses, safety concerns can take years to be discovered.

In general it's mostly a behavioral thing, if you get used to train trips they become easier and the way you use your time becomes very efficient.

Two weeks ago I traveled to Antwerpen from Nuremberg in Bavaria and back in three days. A plane might have saved me three hours in real time, but that is not worth the carbon emission or the lack of "place" for me.

Of course I would't take a 40 hour train trip to Portugal, but I took a one day trip from our home to Bordeaux with two small kids and that worked quite brilliant.

Next week I will go by sleeper train to Neapel, visit Pompeii stay for a night and go back by sleeper train.

I don't know, it has it's problems and there are a lot of things that go wrong but it also has feeling of "place" of change. Even on business trips I don't have the feeling of somehow switching between arbitrary grey meeting rooms with a plane.

I think there are a lot of things that can become better but the international lines have already become much better in the last years and one reason is just that you have Apps to navigate any kind of public transport.

I used to think this as well, that No Code was not a real development to production level option. I have very much been proven wrong. I transition recently from 15+ years as a developer to contracting for a no code platform. Virtually everything a regular web dev can do in code can be done in no code. Sometimes its easier to do in code and sometimes it is much easier to do in no code so mileage may vary but no code is very much a mature technology now that can produce applications to the same scale as regular web 2.0 coded software.
