I guess it might depend on how you prepare it. To me, chanterelles are one of the mushrooms that should always be prepared without anything that might cover the taste exactly because it's so distinct it's be a massive waste. But if you cook it like some people cook chicken I can well imagine it'd wnd up tasting like chicken...
It's a point where a single failure causes system failure, but that's a lot more words. These things tend to get whittled down to "terms of art", the meaning of which is understood by those trained in the art. It's perhaps best to just call it an SPOF and then people will hopefully google it to find out what that means.

Delaying saves lives because:

- More time to vaccinate.

- Better treatment in hospitals which aren't under stress

- More time to develop pharmaceutical treatments against severe cases.

> middling companies executives seem absorbed with performative work which in turn filters down the ranks into more performative work

Performative executives promote the finest performative workers into management

I have been to the top, its only marginally better the main difference being the performance continues on later into the night so proportionally more gets done.

Why? Why look at them. If you're addressing Moxie's points, address them, and Moxie's article wasn't about the messengers.

> Why don’t non technical users want to run servers? After all, they have done in the past via programs like BitTorrent and Gnutella.

No. No, they haven't. While it was rather wide-spread, it still wasn't nearly as en masse as people pretend it was. An average non-technincal person wasn't running those clients. And, most importantly, the moment iTunes, then Steam, then Spotify appeared, people ditched running those torrent clients.

I wonder why /s

> They don’t do that today because the software industry outside of Cupertino isn’t interested in easily letting them do that.

Apple apps are not servers. And users are not running them. What wild logic leaps! Apple's iTunes ba sically single-handedly reduced the number of people running their own servers aka torrent clients.

> I’m excited to launch this product and the company behind it,

So. A marketing message hidden behind a rather inconherent "response"
I think if you let yourself drift off while typing it might ok. Like drifting off while listening to music, or thinking about a math problem. I don't feel like trying it though. I think you have about the right take on the concept regardless of the practicality.
Efficiency is always a consideration. There's an interesting "Mega Factories" video where they cover the Porsche factory in Leipzig that builds the Macan and Panamera [1], in which a supervisor points out that the robot arms accelerate only as quickly as they need to. They were able to trim something like 10% of the robots' energy usage just by controlling movement speed and acceleration. There are hundreds of massive robots in the factory shifting heavy objects around, so this isn't a trivial savings.

Another consideration is that a 70 MPH tractor would stir up way too much dust. Topsoil would end up everywhere except where it's wanted.

One valid question might be why a robotic tractor needs to be shaped like a human-driven tractor, or work like one. Maybe it'd be more effective to use an army of small drone-like machines that operate closer to the ground?

Issue here, imo is also the supervision requirement. The kids are not allowed to go outside independently without parent until they are basically teenagers.

Parents have stuff to do and also nothing to do on playground. So they stop taking kids there once those are over toddler age and won't destroy house put of sheer energy. Playgrouds are boring and 9-11 years old truly have nothing to do there without friends group.

So 6-10 years old kids are rarely outside. They know how to have fun at home and school, but they have no community in park and don't know games. Then they are 14-16 and everyone is like "why don't they go outside? there is basketball court". But shooting balls alone is fun for like two days and they don't known to have fun there.
I've tried writing higher level bindings on top of libdbus. Once I realised that libdbus was not designed for writing reliable or sane software (there's an error? there's an error! what is it? who knows) I decided to try writing my own implementation of the dbus protocol (the intention was to write C code generators for automating away writing a lot of the boilerplate). Once I had read the specification once I gave up. dbus is the most hideous protocol and most hideous library, its ONLY advantage is its ubiquity.

I don't think I understand your threat model here. In the dystopian remote attestation future, presumably nobody's going to grant you access unless you're running Windows, at which point Microsoft can impose arbitrary policies without needing to involve Pluton at all (all it would do in this case is verify that you're running Windows, and you can already make that determination using a traditional TPM). So under what circumstances would you find yourself unable to gain access to a remote resource unless you're willing to accept a firmware update that changes Pluton's behaviour in a user-hostile way?
The data is “admitted due to Covid or complication of Covid”, so presumably they filtered out the “breathing difficulty” cases”?

i'm definitely speculating. middle ground is just boring.

if your benchmark is long-term societies, anarchic cultures are it, and anything else including our modern state is an outlying extreme. but here we are.

technology provided the possibility of control, and by current trend, advancing it seems to make some of those possibilities more thorough and more resilient. but moving past the dialogue of incentive and metric by integrating all experience would be a different thing altogether. it's more of a singularity fantasy than anything a human could possibly worry about.
That’s just a bunch of kitchen psychology not even on the level of 19th century Freudian psychoanalysis.

You’re starting from a very specific worldview—the puritanical tradition where those upholding a certain set of virtues (industriousness, tolerance to pain, etc) will be richly rewarded (on earth or later) and, conversely, any suffering can be traced back to individual faults.

That mindset cannot survive contact with even trace amounts of actual data where, time and time again, medication does make a difference, although that difference remains frustratingly smaller than for other diseases. But it isn’t ‘numbing” of “fake” any more than antibiotics are.

You seem to believe antidepressants are like uppers or downers where you chuck a handful and ten minutes later you feel a wave of happiness roll over you. Here’s a secret: take a few of those pills and you will feel… absolutely nothing. Anti-depressants do not produce a “high” in any sense of the word. Changes in mood take months to appear and are usually not even recognized by the patient. It’s their friends who tend to notice it first.
> Apple became so cloud-oriented that their thermostat has to contact an external server to get the outside temperature.

Apple don't sell a thermostat. Although I wouldn't be surprised if HomeKit enabled devices needed to do what you described LOL :-)
Effort to refactor is something to consider, and verbosity makes this harder as you get lower level.

Another thing to consider is the very verbose names can be something that people actively avoid for clean code, and you could end up with spaghetti code to make it both readable and verbose (imagine someone doing this for years and then handing the code off to someone when they leave because they were so pigeonholed in that system that no one else could easily collaborate).

Downstream, you can end up with tech debt instead of optimally refactored code as people struggle to do something of a smaller scope. And if every tiny thing is unit tested, it gets even harder to change without expanding the scope of work.

Math code is an extreme example of where verbosity can quickly become detrimental.
You still need to store that data on somewhere to verify if someone owns a membership and whether it is valid though (memberships can expire).

That data is stored on blockchain vs having a centralized database. Refer to an earlier comment for why having it public is useful.

As for why people didn't use certificates till now, I don't know. I know they use wallet connect more which operates on the same principle but with existing adoption.

I highly recommend reading the book “Sapiens” by Harari. The premise is that society is essentially collective psychosis. To me it’s on upper management to plan accordingly. If we are able ship products in the time allotted, the number of hours per day shouldn’t really matter right? Provided that it’s not burning people out.

I persuaded my partner to switch to Linux, because Windows is increasingly hostile if you don't want online services, accounts and offers.

We went with Silverblue, because it Just Works™, it's simple to upgrade, and it's difficult to break (and it's what I've used for years now).

One of my criteria when recommending a distro is "if I leave them alone with it for 10 years, would it be EOL (or broken)?" and IMO Silverblue makes major version upgrades much simpler than Ubuntu.
TheLounge is not a third party service, it's software you can run on your own machine. Works pretty well and the UX is slick.

They excluded “complications of Covid” so positive test wasn’t needed, could be suspected Covid as well.

> What do you mean by single screen? There's no technical reason for that to be the case

I've programmed on v0.5, and SystemSet, which is the base for state management, was very immature - it didn't even work with FixedTimeStamp (because they will compete on RunCriteria); I think it's this one: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/2233.

I've tried implementing multiple states in a game, and it just didn't work. And I don't even know if it was a bug in my code or in Bevy, because state support is not stable, and the documentation is lacking.

Without proper state management, you'll end up running either a large amount systems, or fewer systems, with code for all the cases inside.

Due to the problematic RunCriteria design, even synchronous assets loading is problematic. There is a plugin for that, but what if another plugin causes RunCriteria conflicts? Who knows.

> Why do you need opengl when you have support for D3D, Vulkan

Because Vulkan may be broken for one reason or another, and then one ends up with a system where OpenGL is not supported, and Vulkan doesn't work. My (modern) system is such case.
This is a cost of migration. I am totally fine with renting my server at AWS if I can move it to another provider at any time.

The goal of decentralization is ownership of your data and services. Centralization only becomes a problem if there is no competition and a company has too much power.
Forced to sell chipless ink cartridges, Canon tells customers how to bypass DRM
https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Dictd
People routinely run their own servers. A great example is bittorrent where the incentive design forces people to run actual file servers on their computer.

People will run servers on their computer if it is (i) motivated the right way, (ii) as frictionless as possible.

For the types of applications that web2 is great at (content creation / consumption), it makes no sense to run a server of course but computing is a lot bigger than that.
It's the same "licensing" business model as video game consoles, with similar commissions to Nintendo's eShop, etc..

Unsurprisingly, the bulk of App Store revenue is from games.

I don't see Nintendo (or Apple) authorizing alternative game stores on their handhelds any time soon.
> Printer ink company Canon was forced by the silicon shortage to sell cartridges without the DRM chips used to dissuade customers from using third-party tanks. Accordingly, it is reportedly telling customers how to bypass its "genuine" ink bullshit. (translation)

> SaaS just seemed relevant to the audience here, but there are a lot of applications which want to limit one account per natural person, not just SaaS. For example, social networks want to prevent astroturfing, and video games want to prevent cheaters from ban-evasion

That's true, so then I wonder what stops someone from farming these identities and selling them?

> I think the vast majority of reflexive dismissals of crypto tech have two themes in common: "if the technology doesn't satisfy this use case, or the UX is not perfect yet, then surely there is no way to fix that and we should discard the whole idea;"

The main issue for me is that quite often existing well-known problems are tackled with this new hammer that ostensibly offers no real benefit on top of solutions we already have. This is not true of all applications of blockchain technology, but it's clear that there is not a strong case that it is as generally applicable as a movement like "web3" would suggest.

> and "why use this decentralized solution when we can use this centralized one which, in many cases, doesn't work as well?"

It's just not clear that this is the case.
" The chinese are not going to backdoor a drone to get footage of some kid's pot plants behind a barn in Iowa."

Thinking very long term:

What if this kid is about to become someone important - you never know.

But if he does, it could be convenient to have lots of private footage and possible blackmail material.

Meaning, there is unlikely to be anyone watching the videos of kids flying drones now. But there might be the option that they automatically back it up to some server.
Or that there is this option, that gets activated in some cases of interest to them.

I did a zoom call with a psychiatrist and got Prozac and propranolol within an hour. Amazed at how easy the process is now with telemedicine and how helpful the right medications are.

I wish I hadn’t tried to “tough it out” for so long and being scared away from medication after hearing things like they would numb you or make you feel like a robot. I don’t feel that way at all now that I’ve experienced a number of these medications firsthand.

No, you didn’t. That sort of effect does happen with antipsychotics. The effects of antidepressants are as different from those as Aspirin.
Yep. Sounds like we went down pretty much exactly the same path. I came to the same conclusion after attempting the same thing.
I'm also curious about non-pandemic factors, such as social media.

Instagram grows in usage during the pandemic. And there's also TikTok. Both of these can highlight how much fun others are having while you're "stuck".
Is this a reference to the quote "cherchez la femme" being attributed to Talleyrand? I found that claim here[0], but it doesn't seem to be correct; this source[1] attributes it to Dumas.

I have been using ObservableHQ as my main environment for over a year. I have found that I have started adopting a "documentation driven development" methodology organically over time. The opening paragraph of the notebook, I review and edit almost every time I open the notebook. The opening paragraph provides a qualitative north star and tone setting for the whole project contained within. You can have a dynamic table to contents structuring the whole notebook.
When documentation is included with source code, it is easy to skep between micro projects, as all information required to run the project and perform maintenance can be put where it makes most sense. So as a solo developer, I am able to scale more broadly than I used to be able to.

To me, literate programming is massive productivity left on the table. I love it.

I love it so much I developed https://webcode.run to extend observable to the backend with a fresh retake of a serverless compute environment. I have a working OAUTH server "hosted" here: https://observablehq.com/@endpointservices/auth if you are concerned this does not scale to interesting infra. You can eject source code as ES6 modules and publish to NPM which I have done for generally useful tools like the first REDIS client for web https://observablehq.com/@tomlarkworthy/redis
The JWST has an extremely sensitive IR camera. And it is going to cool down to near absolute zero so that the IR sensors don't get flooded with radiation from the rest of the telescope. Because it will get so cold, it is not going to be emitting much IR (I think this is what the GP said when they said "generating"). Your typical deployment observation IR camera's won't be of much help in that case.

How to make it in crypto as a normal person
When a standard market behaviour like shorting isn't available, its tempting to ask qui bono. Given the guarantee of profit in being a market maker, even at only fractions of traded value you would think somebody would do it for the revenue.
IMO people making software align the software with their motives. Generally, for proprietary software that's selling services to consumers and/or ad partners; for open source software that's making a useful tool.
I suspect one reason are online games. Boys are more likely to play them and in lockdown, they were the one of few socialization available.

It does not matter what are reasons for disparity. But, the boys were more likely to continue some unchanged socialization ad they had before. They already had established groups to play with and so on.
"Routinely run their own servers"
