About a week in - how's that working out for you? Indexed yet, ranking for anything noteworthy?
Two points:

1. Climate Change and Environmentalism are usually conflated and used interchangeably. They are two different concepts - climate change is about putting excess carbon in the atmosphere, faster than the earth can re-absorb it. Environmentalism is a moral judgement on how much resources humans are entitled to consume.

For example, I can drive an EV powered by nuclear power and live in a large detached house. There are no carbon emissions, but I consume lots of resources. People may disagree with my taking up so much land, but that doesn't mean I'm changing the climate while taking up land.

2. We do not need to emit carbon to enjoy high standards of living. Our usage of fossil fuels to power our lifestyles is a historical leftover. We did it because our primitive technology made it easy and and cheap to level-up civilization by burning them. And we did. But today, we can use more advanced technology to stop emitting carbon.

So climate change will be solved with advanced technology, allowing us to replace all instances of carbon in all areas of the economy, which will take decades, but is quite doable. We will still take up land, consume resources etc. Asking (and eventually mandating) that people switch technologies is reasonable. Asking that people give up their lifestyles isn't. It is so unreasonable, you can take it as a given that it just won't happen.

Moral judgements are important and we should consider our broader impact, but such a thing cannot be "solved", we can only work on convincing other people of our position gradually over time.

> is worth 1.1 Trillion dollars

That's the reason why it's a systemic risk. When the financial value of something and the real value diverge so much...people rage will mount when inevitably the financial value collapses back to the real value.

People wanted Ballmer's head for keeping things together and allow the real value of Microsoft to catch up with the financial value which was so elevated at the height of the dot com bubble.

People have really strong emotions when it comes to their money, if they were raging at Ballmer because the MSFT stock stayed flat after a huge bubble (while all the other tech stock crashed and burned) , I can only imagine what will happen when Tesla implodes.

> certain area and can't "end"

The dream of Japan becoming a technological powerhouse essentially ended with the Japan stock market bust in the late 90s.

So yes, geographical areas characterized by irrational exhuberance can end, when things go south.
This is an uncharitable take, and I think you’re on the wrong side of this if you think it won’t work in the future. This team raised $45M from 10k internet strangers in a week, and they almost managed to win the bid. They created a path for bidding with crypto at Sotheby’s, and came up with a legal structure so they could do it with money raised via a DAO. They newly exposed hundreds of thousands of people to the possibilities of crypto beyond BTC.

Sure, it failed, and it sucks that everyone loses a lot of gas fees. But these guys did a lot to lay tracks for the next attempt. I bet with more time to plan they would’ve pulled it off.

I think Spacex’s early failed landing attempts are a good analogy - lots of time and money spent, but lots of learning to improve the next ones.
As a Turk, I hope they do not expect any returns or development from that investment. Corruption is extremely high.
I worry about both. But a corporation will never have the level of power of a state as we know them today. The state on top of f*cking you they extract you money so they end up abusing you with your money. If they feel uncomfortable they regulate against you if they see a chance and do not forget they have the legal monopoly of force.

It is not that I favor one or the other. Is is just a bigger threat power in a State, which remember, are managed by imperfect humans also, such as corporations, than corporations.

Because corporations cannot become monopolies easily (in deregulation I would say that they cannot by definition) and do not have power to regulate (at least not in theory, we all know crony capitalism, right?).
The article hints that this design may be less complex.

So... blogging is no where near death. There's plenty of traditional written word blogs, but last I looked, audio and video podcasts are doing great, too. A podcast is an RSS feed with a media payload, and the sites that host them are ... blogs (even if dressed up as "podcasting/audience engagement platforms").

"What a useful thing a pocket-map is!" I remarked.

"That's another thing we've learned from your Nation," said Mein Herr, "map-making. But we've carried it much further than you. What do you consider the largest map that would be really useful?"

"About six inches to the mile."

"Only six inches!" exclaimed Mein Herr. "We very soon got to six yards to the mile. Then we tried a hundred yards to the mile. And then came the grandest idea of all ! We actually made a map of the country, on the scale of a mile to the mile!"

"Have you used it much?" I enquired.

"It has never been spread out, yet," said Mein Herr: "the farmers objected: they said it would cover the whole country, and shut out the sunlight ! So we now use the country itself, as its own map, and I assure you it does nearly as well."

Disclosure: Haven't read the paper yet, time constraints...

One think pointed out when I stumbled about similar papers before was:

The reduction of depression, anxiety, stress from micro-dosing are rediculus small compared to the effects of a more healthy live style and environment. Even just taking a walk in nature for 10min a day often had many times stronger positive effects.
Yes, it is hard to write a good error message. Sometimes it's not necessary to write a good error message if you can provide something that the user can Google or at least something that's useful to someone who can investigate further.

For example, the old "Error occurred, check the logs" is useful because it tells me that there is info in the logs.

It's even better if it says "Error 4824 occurred, check the logs" because it gives me an error code to try to look up.

Better yet is "Error 4824 occurred, check the foobar-error.log file for transaction_id nv3kd32dx9" which also gives you which error log to check AND gives you a unique ID to grep for. Sadly, I've NEVER seen that type of error message in any software.

What's the difference between what you're promoting and the knee-jerk cancel culture that's as bad as what it punishes? I like to think we can influence and change behaviours without "boycotting companies into oblivion", even if that was realistic or likely. There's a large distance between your aggressive post on the internet and an entire country of people coordinating a campaign against specific business.

> I don't do that anymore. When programin in Go, JSON is just a serialization format for a struct. You have a concrete struct type and you just use json to fill it with data. It's so easy and trivial.

This does mean that you should know and define your schema in advance, which is not always doable. An alternative is to use a sum type and pattern to safely deconstruct `interface{}` but Go has a notably poor support for sum types. Static typing is not really a culprit here, but Go would make a bad example for anonymous JSON parsing.

That is a good question, and thanks for helping me to test the limits of my argument. I would say that voyeurism, like all crime, can be expected to follow a spatiotemporal probability cloud. Society does not accept folks peering into your home and as an individual you have recourse. I think it is fuzzier as soon as you step out into public. I would definitely consider an airbnb or most other spaces that are outside my control to be public spaces. But the question of voyeurism is sort of distinct from my main question, which is how big is the risk? Do we have data on how many people are hurt by this issue?
Sure, but Apple has the power, and money follows power.
Here are a couple of not-rhetorical questions for you:

* Which is worse in your mind? China's treatment of the Uyghurs or global civilizational collapse?

* Does holding China accountable for its treatment of Uyghurs increase or decrease the likelihood that China will cooperate on climate?

Organizations make promises to close deals. Customers usually don't care how long it takes as much as they care about when they need it. There is variability in the bandwidth of those constraints (and in price paid) which is why we have a sales process. At the end of that process, making changes is really hard. So here we are.

but it's more complicated that "makes greedy people rich"

this "greedy people" are humans embedded in social circles too. Many are in situations (social circumstances) in which they are not really free to not be greedy. Further, many of these "greedy people" are not even individuals but corporations (autonomous money, as I half-jokingly think of them) i.e. businesses large enough that all the decisions are systematically directed to increase stockholder value (if they don't 'beat the market' their investors are loosing money)

I think that's a good general principle, but I think the magnitude of the climate change threat and its timelines are exceptional. This principle doesn't generalize to it in my mind, but I'd be happy to hear how we can apply this principle and save the planet.
I think the point is you'd get a barrage of ill-thought-out/ephemeral/chatty messages all at once in the day, which is maybe worse than being spread out, and certainly not the 'mindful correspondence' goal.
You’re right that the relationship between DAOs and corporate entities is a gray area in law right now. But imagine this went to court and the plaintiffs said that it quacked like a duck, so their assumption was for all intents and purposes it was a duck. What do you think the judge is going to say?

I’m not a lawyer and not aware of any precedent here, but I imagine if it’s a total gray area the judge would say they are entitled to the same rights as one might find being a member of a corporation since that was the shared belief system at the time.
You reasons seems to be that Apple and Google are holding us hostage.

No, I'm just done with the bullshit. I even qualified my statement to ensure that it was clear that I just used the 11% as a means to show why no matter what the difference is it can make the balance shift from growing to shrinking.
Nobody looks at the imbalance in incarceration rates and assumes that police and the justice system are systemically sexist against men, but they certainly draw that conclusion along racial lines based on the same outcome.
I think the biggest driver for loss of privacy is mass consumerism and the popularity of FAANG-like products, which have little to do with individualism. I think advertisers have done a great job of equating individualism with consumer choice in many people's minds but that doesn't make it so.

Trump was. The CCP called an emergency meeting after each of his 2020 speeches. He single-handedly reversed 50 years of US appeasement.
I'm not at all involved with this, but just based on reading the website and reading your comment I think you might have a slight misconception of how this works.

There is no send button. You write drafts, and then at the pickup/deliver time, Pony picks up all the drafts from your outbox, and delivers any mail for you at the same time.

Therefore, you can change your mind about what you've written at any point before it gets picked up.

Because there are no good LMS, period. The entire concept of a "Learning Management System" is stupid and conclusory, but makes for a good business model that you can sell to unsuspecting administrators.

You just cannot "all-in-one" a system of learning without real modularity, and/or non-exclusivity. -- but the LMS always HAS to do some of this in order to keep its percieved edge; this creates very bad incentives of lock-in, like Canvas' idiotic and horrible "Conversations," which is just email but worse.

Source: I work in one everyday, and something always suffers as the money-maker tries to keep their competitive edge. In my experience the best shot at this is probably Google Classrooms, precisely because they're NOT desperate in this business.

(This is very analogous to how Wordpress became the best CMS precisely because it wasn't trying to be one.)

Not exactly an extension, but a practice that I'm shocked many people don't seem to use is to set up autoformatting on save.

I will hit ctrl+s after every few lines of code or so, allowing my "coding wingman" to tidy things up as I go. It releases me from caring, in the slightest, about formatting, so I'm focused entirely on writing syntactically valid code, and letting the formatter worry about the deterministic minutiae that is formatting.

The reason I like doing this in real-time rather than some `run formatting before committing` workflow is that I benefit instantly from tidy code as I'm writing it.

If you are _ever_ thinking about formatting and you spend time manipulating proper spacing and layout, semicolons, or other language-specific quirks yourself, you may be wasting time that could be spent on the non-trivial parts of writing code. Consider trying it!
Well, first, it's "to enter into implicit agreements..." — I think it's an important detail. Second, you always pay for "cell phone games" with some amount of money (ranging from $0 to infinity) plus a trove of optional data; the option to pay with just money simply is not there.
In the article he finds the first written mention of the "purpose" of the spiral going in one direction is in 1902. And explains that this 1902 author was obsessed with spirals and fencing.

I think the fact that there are no primary historical source documents that say "hey, we're building this castle this way just in case it's breached and we have to have a sword fight on the stairs" is one of his main points.

It would be easy to disprove the article author by finding such historical documents. Do they exist?

How does your billing work? Are you on a plan for that VPS with dedicated, fixed burstable, or 95th percentile burstable? You may be able to find some less cringe worthy bills if you change how you are billed. Although that might mean you have to change providers, too.
I am inclined to agree, and you are correct if you assume that I am male. But I would prefer to see the data. Without it, the first sentence of the abstract is unsubstantiated. "Tiny hidden spy cameras concealed in sensitive locations including hotels and bathrooms are becoming a significant threat worldwide." The paper cites no evidence for "significant threat worldwide". Academic fancy?
While correct, I think you are missing the point on doorbell cameras. Of course it doesn't require trusting Ring to not destroy your privacy by using their system.

However, what percentage of people who want a doorbell camera are going to go through the work of setting up a local NVR. It is practically zero. I think the other issue is that if everyone else in your neighborhood does have a Ring, how does that not affect your privacy? Of course, Ring's business model is fear mongering and I'm not absolving them. But people will generally choose the path of least resistance. The fact that people want a camera to prevent a package from being stolen not because they want to create a police dragnet means almost nothing when the result of the camera sales creates an abusable police dragnet. And to be clear, some people actually do want to create the police dragnet because "other people" are scary. Spend 10 minutes on NextDoor and you will see lots of this.

I used something similar to Duff’s device to implement coroutines in C++ (pre-C++20). With some macros and using lambda function the result almost feels like part of the language.

No UB. Static analysis will keep you from doing things like using values in local variables across yields (use lambda captures instead).

Just avoid doing two CO_YIELD() in the same line because this macro uses __LINE__ for the switch case.
The series finale never fails to make me cry like a baby. I love it so much.
I've done this off and on for the better part of two decades. I know a few good colo's across the US if your interested.

Much of it is going to depend on your workloads. If your just running emepheral vm's on something like vmware or another hypervisor, you won't run into much of a problem.

Things start getting a bit more complicated if you are going to be using HA storage/databases. But again, that depends on your workload. And some datacenters will be happy to manage that for you.

There is alot of money that can be saved when your workloads are fairly static though. The key is putting together some hardware automation (jumpstart your hypervisors) and handling the depreciation cycle.
Sorry I didn't mean it was more viable for that purpose, I meant it's more essential. We already know how to make good electric cars and power them with green-ish energy. For cement and steel we have barely even started making them "green" and they make a huge amount of our total greenhouse gas input.
> Not via some app that is subject to all android restrictions on persistent apps, including occasional unloading from memory

Apps are subject to power and resource restrictions, but the user can easily lift those restrictions manually for certain apps, like UP Distributor.
If the app is implemented properly, it will work just as well as Google's push service.

> The OS is designed in such way requires push notifications built into its core to work properly.

Notifications are built into the OS. A network-based push notification service is not part of the OS.
It is false to say that (a particular implementation of) network-based push notifications have to be "built into the OS' core to work properly."
