The most interesting quote, from a Russian magazine in 1966:

> Philistine pragmatism takes over in Fleming’s novels. They tend to be indiscriminate, to combine elements of all sorts of sensationalism — political action and thriller, science fiction and advertising brochure, a fashion magazine and nudist film… This, briefly, is the secret of the genre, of popularity in its modern shape. Still, had it not been for the screen, Bond would have been lost among all the other spy characters out there. A nobody. It was the film industry that made him a myth.
Network and IPC namespacing are just two different ways of communicating using namespaces. I can't imagine that the overhead of either is significant.

I can see, from a design perspective, that network namespacing is likely more scalable. Network addresses can be local or WAN while unix sockets would tie you to a single node. That implies a very different and slightly more rigid scaling strategy with IPC based communication.

I don't think that degrowth would have to limit quality of life - many of the things that we spend tremendous amounta of fossil fuels on, like commuting, are not things we want to do, but that we have to do primarily due to really bad planning and systems that don't need to exist. For the last two years a bunch of people stopped commuting and while WFH doesn't work well for some of us (if it weren't a pandemic, the same change could've come with local co-working spaces), that has not hurt quality of life while having a great impact on co2 production.

I hardly call that degrowth, That's just efficiency.

They are actively working on this and [a recent update](https://discuss.logseq.com/t/very-slow-performance-with-larg...) solved part of this problem.

I'm not a logseq user but have toyed around with it and am really hoping it gets to a rock-solid state soon. Development has been moving super fast but I'm not quiteeee ready to trust it with all my notes. I'll probably switch once they release a beta (as it's currently alpha software).
If we're going off pet theories, mine's got to be the lasting effects of a lifetime of lead poisoning[1].

There’s a decent enough chance this will happen. The iPhone 13’s are actually thicker than the 12 and have a bigger better. Battery life is pretty bonkers good on the 13s (not that the 12’s were bad or anything).
Were you also baffled by the ethics of telephones? I don't mean the cell phone in 6.4 billion pockets that's always listening, I mean the POTS. AT&T was once the largest corporation in the world, and they had a live wire going directly to almost every house in the nation. The telephones were always on, and the other end always capable of remotely listening in to anything you said, if you picked it up. Little different from an Echo device that's always waiting for its wake word to start transmitting. Almost everyone that's alive right now has always had a remote listening device in their home, controlled by a major corporation, from the moment they were born.
HDMI splitter to a capture card solves this as well.
I can't believe the buy in is $1000, it would have to be a AAAA game to demand that price tag, but it's not so it's just a disguised Ponzi scheme. The way the media have been reporting this as a way for Filipinos to earn income is disgusting, because they're tricking financially challenged people to fall for this Ponzi scheme by making it look legitimate with the media attention.

Others in this thread mentioned similar patterns of acquiring and selling virtual assets. PayPal was a common money transfer platform and eBay was a common marketplace (before they banned the sale of digital items).

I stopped using PayPal for... a number of reasons, and BTC was a functional alternative.

Any company calling itself an internet service provider that alters TCP sessions is no longer an internet service provider. It's more of a web service provider.

All assets ( BTC, Stocks, Gold ) are priced on supply and demand. If demand goes down for BTC the price will go down.

It doesn't matter if the fed prints money or not BTC needs a constant infusion of new investment to keep the price up. Unlike a company with positive cash flow who could buyback shares and never get any new investors and still keep the price up.
> People have made money by selling virtual goods acquired in-game at least as far back as Second Life in 2005.

So I basically grew up on Second Life, back when "the Metaverse" was just a geek thing no one cared about. The comparison doesn't really work here, because the virtual items people sold on SL were (generally) their original creations: 3D modeled, animated, programmed, etc. Not simply doled out by pre-programmed in-game systems.

Axie Infinity's economy is more like "real-world trading" on MMOs, but officially endorsed by the developers instead of being considered a game-breaking, bannable offense. In fact, the mention of Axie Infinity providing an income stream to people in developing countries who spend their time grinding also parallels the MMO space: you can find plenty of stories about illicit "gold farming" economies surrounding the major online games, going back decades.

> Axie Infinity is novel in two ways, which are worth exploring separately.

> - It elevated the ability to earn an income stream through the game to a core feature, coining play-to-earn as a new game genre.

> - It uses NFTs to represent in-game items, so the economy is (ostensibly) decentralized.

Going back to SL, the virtual economy was always a "core feature". We had a whole digital currency and ecosystem of first- and third-party exchanges and money markets where you could buy and sell Linden dollars for real money, with moving exchange rates and everything. People very much made serious income off of in-world business. The true novelty here is that Axie & friends are built on decentralized technologies, instead of having a company like Linden Lab managing everyone's account balances and virtual item ownership rights.
Electricity is tricky in that way. Most of the time the only effect of being shocked by 110V or even 230V is cussing. But sometimes your heart stops. (A 17 years old cousin of mine died after picking up an old corded drill that had been left outside in the rain.)

Even if you cannot explain the inner workings, — and actually ESPECIALLY if you cannot explain the inner workings, if it is YOUR bot, it is YOUR responsibility.

Utterly disgusting to hide behind "it's just the algorithm". When L5 self-driving cars from Acme corp start driving off of bridges and running over bicycles, shuld we just let Acme and their apologists say "oh, it's just the algorithm/AI, not our fault, we don't need to fix it"?

> We should not force COVID vaccines on anyone when the evidence shows that naturally acquired immunity is equal to or more robust and superior to existing vaccines.

We shouldn't compare immunity. We should compare risk. And the risk associated with vaccines is nowhere near the risk associated with natural infection.
Not disagreeing, but I think it has more to do with not having kids. You can find a one bedroom on Craigslist in almost any neighborhood in SF for less than $2,000 a month. How much more do you need to survive as a single person? Another $2K a month? That puts you at $4k/month, or $48K a year, which most full-time jobs will pay.

Assuming healthy, no kids, and that the landlord agrees to rent you the place, which may be difficult if you’re a person of color or have a low salary.
Yeah, that's the basis of my issue with it all. Value created by people who do not benefit from it whatsoever.
Sure, a few restaurants I loved have closed, but that seems to mostly be due to covid (e.g. Bachelor's Farmer) or poor management (Butcher & the Boar). If anything restaurants have gotten even better in the last 10 years in the Twin Cities. There's of course higher-end places like Spoon and Stable, Kado no Mise, and Owamni, and also quite a few better Chinese options that have opened in Dinkytown (e.g., Lao Sze Chuan). And of course old favorites like Bar La Grassa that's still going strong.
The solution you describe has already been found: stop burning and leave fossil fuels in the ground. Technological solutions are the opposite. They're an attempt to avoid the what everyone already knows is the answer.

Ultimately the role of parents is to provide their children the means to become successful and self-actualized adults. Their traditional values and feelings have little to do with that if their kids are opposed. If you decide to have kids, you owe them everything. Your needs, values, feelings, hangups, etc. now take a backseat to what your kids need. If you're unwilling to do so, the reasonable response from the child is to cut you off to some extent, from making certain topics of conversation off limits all the way up to complete no contact.
Sort of. It happened several times in the past few months.
That’s good to hear and I do believe you that there’s great work environments around here. The culture I’m describing is at places like Highmark, Norfolk Southern, and First National Bank which obviously couldn’t be anything like a startup even if they wanted to. It’s just the only thing I and the rest of my network locally can get.
The presence of aggregate societal harm tends to be the motivator for other regulation around otherwise voluntary behavior such as gambling. So if that harm can be demonstrated then there may be a case for legislating if companies can offer such games and on what terms they can do so.
I grew up in the Philly suburbs and went to Temple..I laugh at the idea of rich people choosing to live in center city. They fixed the payment thing for septa but during covid all the progress made on crime went out the window. They also tear gassed some affluent white techies in the crowd during the protests because the blue collar cops in Philly are some of the dumbest individuals I've ever had the displeasure of interacting with.

I literally moved to Maui during covid and was able to pay the same rent I was throwing away on an apartment in Northern liberties but instead I was 500 ft from the ocean

In this case it is not at all glib. The author does not seem to have considered that his residential class service could have a differing AUP from any other class of service.

He mentions large providers being customers of Lumen and just lets the assumption that they fall under the same AUP be present.

I would expect differing AUP for Residential and Business connections. Both of which would be standardized.

Once you step up into the territory where you are more than a SOHO business customer, you get things like a meaningful SLA, guaranteed throughput, and other terms that can be negotiated.

His residential AUP literally does not apply once you start talking tens of thousands of dollars per month, and scaling way up from there.

> It also acidifies the oceans, it kills by air poisoning and just is generally bad and also nonrenewable.

Isn’t ocean acidification caused by increased amounts of dissolved CO2 in the oceans though?

If your capturing CO2 (and larger particles as a side effect), it would seem to address both concerns.

CCS is obviously a stop gap but it seems like it could potentially be a very effective and politically realistic stop gap, if it can be made work at scale.

Gold has already been obsoleted by fiat money because it's too expensive and slow to transact with in the modern world.

Bitcoin won't necessarily have the same problem, because it's an information protocol. Protocols can be updated and improved. Even if the main chain ossifies and can't be improved, bitcoin tokens are already being moved to alternative blockchains (sidechains) via 2 way pegs.
Not personal, but I hate you...
Don’t know much about oil, but carbon in the coal was sequestered because plants got outside of water and evolved to have lignin about 50 million years before fungi and bacteria learned how to process dead plant mass. During that time (known as Carboniferous Period) burned and dead wood just turned into brown and black coal.

They aren't paid to play games, they are paid to interact with the audience and tell stories. Looking at view counts of clips with just stories vs clips with gameplay going on will show it. Also, games have been the background in videos or streams for a long long time, people who were on YouTube circa 2010 will remember the YouTubers like WoodysGamerTag or whiteboy7thst who played Call of Duty, but that's never why people watched them. It was the hook but people watched for their personalities.

Well no matter how it gets stored it has to go somewhere. And I would think the volume of some synthetic polymer would approximate the polymers it came from, so it wouldn't take much more space if any as the oil it came from. Maybe it could even be pumped back into the wells. If bacteria get at them, they were going to get at the oil anyway. And their process might be slow enough to not cause a disruption, so it might not be a big deal.

I wonder how fast the carbon was sequestered to produce oil in the natural process. We don't know how much oil there is in the ground, so we really can't tell how much faster we are releasing it than it was captured. I wonder if there's data on the effect on the biosphere from that process and some other way to gauge the speed and also total carbon that has been sequestered naturally to create oil and gas.
Megawatts per year are.
> "personal problem. They want to buy a house"

This is extremely short-sighted. Expensive real estate is a blood-sucking vampire squid on the real economy, on every economically productive citizen

You are paying for that overpriced housing every time you buy a coffee, you pay $1 for the coffee beans and you $4 for the coffee shop rent. You pay rent of every person who's services they need, from a delivery man to a plumber.

The idea that rising house prices are okay because you own a house is just as daft as the idea that rising food prices are okay because you have a full fridge.

The optimal strategy is to drive down relative cost of food, housing and energy, and other nessesities of life to zero, that's what we call 'economic growth'. Thats why we no longer live like peasants.

In 3 steps:

I. P(C) = 2 P(D)

II. 0.15 = P(C and D)
= P(C) P(D) {by independence}
= 2 P(D)^2 {by I}
implies P(D) = 0.27

III. P(~C and ~D)
= P(~C) P(~D) {by independence}
= (1 - P(C))(1 - P(D))
= 0.33 {by I and II}

IIUC, that is actually a form of government subsidy, which exists only because there are places that are uninsurable due to flood risk. It is politically unpopular to tell people they have to self-insure because they picked a risky to live.
