Yes, recapturing CO2 at the powerplant is pointless because of conservation of energy. It's always better not to burn the carbon in the first place.

But recapturing CO2 from air isn't pointless - because we can use surplus renewable energy to do so (and then burn C later as fuel). Basically it would use air as infinite capacity (but low-efficiency) rechargeable battery. I've seen estimates of about 13% efficiency over the whole cycle (capturing + burning).
I used to drink soda for every meal and I went down like 2 inches on my waist size when I stopped. I mean I did eventually gain that back, I guess, but it took years.
EI is not even close to what is commonly described as UBI. Not universal at all.
This is a concern:

> In its lawsuit, Axel Springer cited a 2012 court ruling which found that software for Sony’s Playstation Portable console that changed code in memory to facilitate cheating was infringing. In that case the court found that the temporary modification of the software constituted a revision of the software, something which requires permission from rightsholders.

How can it be against copyright the modify my personal copy of a game? If I cut out the all of the faces of an actor on a VHS tape and replace it with mine, is that copyright infringement? It's my copy.
I have had a lot of trouble with the Marvell AQtion controllers under Linux. They are supposed to work and are plug and play on modern kernels, but I was never able to resolve a bug where the controller stopped working after a few hours. The only resolution I found was rebooting, which made the controller not very useful.

The Intel 10GbE controllers are more expensive, but much better in my experience.

For anyone looking for an alternative, I use an M.2 to PCI-e slot riser and a regular HHHL PCI-e card. Example product: https://www.amazon.com/ADT-Link-Extension-Support-Channel-Mi...
If added to the RPi4x wouldn’t 10GBe saturate the RPi4 CPU?
> The platforms where these nfts are sold usually charge 1-2% commission which is expensive for a wash trade

This is a misconception; on Polygon for example OpenSea is built on top of 0x v3 (an open protocol for marketplaces); one could wash trade an NFT back and forth on 0x v3 directly and only pay the protocol fee (pennies in comparison) and OpenSea would still show those sales in its UI.

No, I prefer the projects I work on to succeed - but not because I enjoy seeing my previous projects succeed.
Merely because I hope I can use them to demonstrate success in future gigs.

I'm more than happy to forget the nth API or crappy frontend I had to work on to buy my house.
Lots of consumer motherboards don't have a lot of PCIe slots wider than x1 (which is not enough for 10GigE), but they often have multiple NVMe capable M.2 slots, that this card would work with.

In my home server for instance, which is built on a consumer μATX board, the wider PCIe slots are filled with a GPU and HBA, which leaves no way to add 10GigE without spending a lot of money on a new motherboard and CPU - or finding a way to use the M.2 slot.
> Right, and a judge could rule that, in fact, it is possible to arbitrarily revoke free licensing at any time.

On the basis of what law or treaty? First of all, dedication is not "free licensing". It is not licensing in any sense whatsoever. When you dedicate the work, you are no longer the holder, hence public domain is also what works fall into when the author is long dead. I'm not sure what piece of law you'd be re-interpreting to reverse all of that understanding, which would be a precondition to allowing dedicators to retain any control whatsoever over a work that's currently in the public domain.

Your original point was better, if it is ruled that "dedication to the public domain" is not and has never been a real thing, then the original dedications never took effect, and copyright holders remained copyright holders instead of forfeiting all control. Stick to that one.
D2R is a disgrace, local LAN multiplayer is removed.

Even D3 on consoles had that.
In Canada tribal offices get money from the federal government and they get to decide how to spend it. Some tribes equally share, others hire family and the money never trickles down.

Minneapolis:
Zero bail for 30 felonies including auto theft

Auto theft a year later increases by over 500%
https://www.mprnews.org/amp/episode/2021/12/14/why-has-a-wav...
From reading news stories it’s the same people doing it. Mostly minors. I know correlation doesn’t equal causation, but it’s interesting here in a year period from those jail changes we see over a 5x increase in those crimes.
I think we're doing all sorts of things now that people decades ago thought were simply impossible!

Repeated lowered cash bail caused this guy to die.

This is only one example from Philadelphia, there are quite a few examples in the past two to three years, coinciding with Larry Krasner. He absolves himself of responsibility in this case, but ran on a platform very explicitly reducing cash bail to reduce incarceration rates on lower level crimes.

https://theappeal.org/the-successes-and-shortcomings-of-larr...

Here is an article fairly in favor of Krasner, and he is quoted on delivering these things.

Philadelphia hit a high score of 500+ shootings last year, and over 700 carjackings. We're already over 100 carjackings this month. There is plenty of blame to go around depending on who you ask, police, Biden, Krasner, COVID, the mayor, the economy.

One thing feels more true than others: if you are in jail, you cannot commit crimes. The costs to society and other people in the city looks very high right now. Krasner was just reelected, turnout was very low, and so we have another two years to see how it goes.

The sentiment among my neighbors on my block is: be careful going to your car at any time, don't be out alone late, use rideshare not public transit if you're a late night service worker. At least a quarter of them want to move in the next two years, split evenly between renters and owners. Can't remember that feeling in the past twenty years.
Yep, they made a mistake supporting it. And they never will again.

They did, but (IIRC, and this is an old memory) to make GNU/Linux pass certification you have to hack it up quite a bit; lots of GNU tools have POSIX modes that significantly change how they behave - things like du defaulting to 1024-byte units by default but using 512-byte units if you set POSIXLY_CORRECT because parts of the standard are, um, "interesting". But yes, neat to know that it can be done.
If they are stealing USPS packages, won’t the feds or federal postal cops get involved?
Describe it as paid, with a free year, and extend everyone's account periodically until you've figured out what to charge for (and how).

When you do figure out what to charge for, consider charging long time users less, or extending them out one last time.
Indeed. It goes:

I think the RPi4 doesn't have enough PCIe lanes for 10 gigabit.
But hasn't the problem been solved? Two bots would play perfectly and walk away with roughly 50% of the pot.

This article is about how humans have been memorizing the variations - akin to chess openings - in order to play as perfectly as possible.
I doubt it's "more than four hours a day, every day". Any software engineer working more than 40 hours/week in this job market is a chump.

Beyond that, he lives in a society, is only able to make that money through the support of that society. Note he chose to move to California, so clearly he's gaining a lot from California.

Interesting but there is only a Part 0. Unless it is some sort of inside joke, I was hoping for more.
This has been going on for a while. I sat in a meeting 20+ years ago at a data mining company where they proudly proclaimed that they could track women's cycles from purchase history. It doesn't take a dedicated app for this data to get out. All it takes is a 28 day autocorrelation to find the signal.
Tried Caddy yet? They provide really compact configuration templates and if needed can be reconfigured using the API.
I think that you have to consider the wider system where a lot of free energy can be created by renewable during peak time. This energy can then be stored or be used to remove or displace CO2 with this kind of process.
CO2 capture always create the problem to store it at geological scale.
The Mike Shot was a surface detonation whereas Tonga was subterranean. So it doesn't lend itself well for comparison of yield and wave production.
The 19th century saw no large scale world wars, and yet they didn’t have any weapons of mass destruction.

WWI was different. Nothing like it had ever happened before because nothing like it was possible. Conversely, almost as soon as it became possible, it happened. Technology made WWI the "War to end all wars," at least until the next "War to end all wars" came along. We can't afford a third, and that's true with or without nukes. Whatever it takes to avoid WWIII is (very likely) worth it.

And as krasin suggests, the notion that the 19th century was characterized by international peace and goodwill is naïve at best.

I do tend to agree that the nuclear powers have a ridiculous quantity of weapons, and that this constitutes a hazard in itself. If the goal is to deter aggression rather than to initiate it, I don't see why something on the order of a dozen modern MIRV-capable strategic weapons wouldn't be plenty. Getting rid of all of them, though, on a worldwide basis? Not going to happen.

(One valid objection to my point is that various proxy wars between the superpowers have killed almost as many people over time as a good old fashioned world war used to, but that's a different debate.)

Anyway, none of this has much to do with volcanos or tsunamis.

Not exactly the acceptable ads must conform to the standard that is defined by the acceptable ads Committee which consists of publishers users, and distribution. Something like that.
I am puzzled by how the vaccines are supposed to work (as boosters, and especially against Omicron):

My understanding is that most of the vaccines "target the spike protein", by causing the body to produce spike protein which is then recognised by the immune system which produces anti-bodies against the same spike protein.

What about the rest of the virus? Is it only the spike protein which causes occasionally lethal damage? If so, why wouldn't the spike protein produced by the body in response to the vaccine also potentially cause damage? If not, how are boosters supposed to protect against Omicron which (as I understand) has "evaded" the vaccines by having substantial mutations to the spike protein?

In Denmark until about a week ago, SSI was publishing data which showed that vaccinated people were overrepresented in infections by Omicron.

They stopped publishing Omicron-specific data because "Omicron is now over 90% of infections".

If it is correct that boosters also protect against infection from Omicron what is the mechanism?
Extra funny considering that Solaris is built from actual AT&T UNIX™ code and OpenServer was, last I looked, FreeBSD with some patches.

Seems like they didn’t touch the real money laundering: where was all the cash coming from?

Usually the hard part of money laundering is the opposite: how to turn cash into something a bank will accept.
I'm imagining remapping some VIM shortcuts for even easier capitalizing words and adding common punctuation.

This remap makes the "." key add a period after the previous word, capitalize the current word, then move on to the next word:

So why don’t you search with something else? And it should be rather trivial to find the most violent cities and towns in the US and look up gun laws there.

Or you just stop watching right wing media that contrary to evidence paint all democratic run cities as violent hellholes.
This Wikipedia article is awful. It says it can be used to hide illegal evidence collection, but then only gives examples of it being used to hide sources and methods. I don't think there is a problem hiding a source if there is sufficient evidence from other sources and the first source is not illegal.
>would certainly cause a mass extinction event

That's a bit bigger than Chicxulub. Someone estimated the heat from the re-entry of debris at 20kw/m2 for 7+ minutes, not close up, but far away. A random study on firefighting I just skimmed said that heat flux will destroy clothing in about 20 seconds and produce 3rd degree burns in another 20 or so. So, uh...ten times 40 seconds over practically the whole world would probably not be good.

The collision that produced the Moon is speculated to have left the surface of the Earth approximately as bright as the Sun for a while, so it could be worse, but there's hardly any difference for the forms of life we can relate to.

Anerobic organisms deep in the crust would have an easier time of it.
Easier to get forgiveness than permission.

I really really don't think the copyright owner would care.
It’s a sad fact of life there will always be injustices. People can still make good choices and have positive outcomes in bad environments.

We need to stop trying to be devoid of personal responsibility as a society.
Was epoll around and no one was using it for a web server yet? It seems like something that would have been put in the kernel explicitly at the behest of web servers.
The Australian government has sent P-8A Poseidon and C-130J Hercules aircraft to surveil damage at the request of the Tongan government. And the HMAS Adelaide is about to leave Brisbane with relief supplies and should get there in a few days.

The New Zealand government is doing likewise.

They are not being left to fend for themselves.
This post being flagged shows that people think with their butt.
The keyboard passthrough works good enough, in Horizon Workspaces. It's completely usable for me. As far as I know, they haven't opened it up the ability to do passthrough to other developers yet, which is unfortunate since I much prefer Immersed. So, this is also my biggest problem with it, so much so, that I'm trying to transition to a CharaChorder keyboard, where the concept of looking at the keys doesn't really exist.
It's interesting to see just how slow faster ethernet standards have been. Feels like I've had gigabit ethernet at a pretty low cost for nearly 20 years now, but faster than that has been pretty esoteric outside of the datacentre.

I guess there really isn't much demand for faster than gigabit speeds even now (outside of servers?)
I get quite a dystopian feeling from the new future this thread envisions. "Decentralization of living". My mind goes large companies like AirBnB buying up apartments en mass and individuals jumping from one temporary apartment to the next; never calling anywhere "home".
How many satelites are tracked by a typical android phone? 4? Or more? Can it track both GPS and other systems like glonass at the same time?
There are also many (very smart) people who predict stagnation if the Nvidia deal succeeds.
Age, sex, size and weight are needed to accurately count calories. Now, whether you should sacrifice your private data for some slight extra accuracy in counting calories, thst another story.
Not only bad things, but also everything can be traded off against some other thing. That doesn't mean we should. There's an economic value assigned to human life, but we don't let someone kill another one by paying a markup.

We should get rid of wage slavery. We can then work on the economic consequences.
Looks like the compute module 4 has one lane of pci-e 2.0, which gets you to 5gbps (theoretically). So yeah, you'll definitely run out of PCI-e bandwidth.
The reason we don't have clean energy ready to use is that the cost of renewable generation plus storage is currently higher than the cost of burning natural gas. If you add the cost of capture to the cost of natural gas, that's plausibly not going to be the case anymore. And then it's more cost effective to build storage than capture.
Sorry, should have been clearer - the ESB absolutely held the #2 spot pre-WTC, but the WTC overtook the ESB in attention and recognition mostly due to its prominent featuring in mass media which really ramped up and has been the top cultural export from NY and the US since the 70's.

There wasn't a movie made about NYC that didn't at some point feature the WTC in it either as part of the background shot.
> Apple isn't crippling PWAs because it cares

Apple isn't crippling PWAs. Once again: there's literally no such thing as PWA. It's bunch of very different standards.

You decided that notifications support are a 100% must to qualify as "not crippling PWAs". Whereas to qualify as a "PWA" an "app" literally only needs two things: service workers and being able to be "installed". Everything else is just gravy.
That is a shame in a way, I should check the benchmark on the Pro.
Hackers have always been fond of pedantry:) It's like how I got really annoyed by people calling the whole OS "Linux", so now I typically refer to "NT, Darwin, and GNU/Linux" out of sheer spite. (I'm aware that this is not helpful to anyone, and I do scale it to make sure everyone can still understand each other, but as personal flaws^wquirks go I think I'm doing just fine;])
Is there any known or predicted capture technology that does this more efficiently than by growing plants or algae and then burying them underground and/or using them as biofuels?
Negative, 100 degrees C is far to low to degrade anything we're talking about here. Benzene, for example, is stable far beyond its autoignition temperature of 500 degrees C.
It might not even be for DA ideological reasons, but due to court/jail resources being limited. California, in particular, has been sanctioned multiple times for jail and prison overcrowding. The solution that doesn’t involve throwing more money at the problem (prosecute less) then leads to these kinds of problems.
It's pretty fascinating how recent most plant foods humans eat are.

As you note, grasses (wheat, rice, oats, rye, barley, ...) and maize are both recent developments and exceedingly selected and hybridised by humans.

Both grasses and flowering plants post-date the first emergence of dinosaurs.

Numerous other crops are similarly recent: stone fruits, pomes, etc. Others were available locally but not worldwide: potatoes and tomatoes. I suspect tubers and berries may be among the older plant foods eaten.
I understand what you're saying, but I don't think traditional media is keeping up with the dozens (or maybe hundreds) of podcasts and YouTube channels that bring in hard experts.

The experts traditional media typically find are frequently kind of "soft" experts that are strong in charisma more than expertise. But that's just my informal take on it.

(And I know you said "blogger", but I think it's fair to include podcasters and YT in that category given that's more likely where you'd find a former blogger these days.)
Feels respectful, but again even for me personally it would depend on other factors.
Not a bad thing as the word acceptable notes.

BUT as the definition of acceptable is not in the hands of the accepting receiver but in the hands of the sender the word acceptable is used in a twisted manner. You are told it is acceptable but their behavior will be driven by forces yielding anything but acceptable.

Ignore what they say - their behavior matters and incentives are stacked against your interests with no effective limits.
What mess?
Keep in mind that the size is dictated by MIRVs[1] - one ICBM goes up into space, breaks into lots of independent missiles, and they all rain down on different targets.

FanaHOVA mentioned the main thing you missed. One other thing I'd mention is that a lot of pros have staking arrangements (the article briefly mentions some versions of them). For example, I know one pro (who's won one of the more prestigious WSOP bracelets) who gets 30% of his tournament winnings in exchange for having all his entry fees paid by his backer. I suspect he's traded off more upside in favor of stability than most, but there's a lot of deals out there where the players aren't taking home anywhere close to 100% of their public winnings.
> It's somewhat arrogant of us to assume that we understand enough about a system as complex as the Earth's biosphere and atmosphere to know for sure a larger percentage of CO2 will necessarily be bad long term. It's feasible that it could be better, even if only after a painful transition.

That's the problem. Maybe it's better, maybe it's worse, and there is only one way to find out. But if it's worse, finding out is very bad. And there is no way to know ahead of time.
This would be so much nicer if it was SFP+, 10GBASE-T transceivers are too expensive still IMO.
Agree - and its not that bail reform is necessarily a bad new feature, it's just a feature that needs more A/B testing to get it right for all end users. Bug fixes are needed w.r.t. the existing implementations.

Bail-reform is probably a good feature worthy of keeping, just don't leave a potentially bug ridden implementation in production without a plan to fix it.

Also its for sure the same people running the backend operations. The front end people doing the stealing are somewhat interchange-able.

Its the backend APIs operating at scale that are the issue.

For example, regarding catalytic converter theft:

"This is a very significant step in stopping the widespread stealing of catalytic converters which have affected hundreds and hundreds of people in our county,"... 12 suspects are considered middlemen and thieves and the three other suspects worked at recycle businesses who knowingly purchased the stolen converters to sell... Green Metal Recycle... is suspected of possessing nearly $3,000,000 of stolen converters. "One of the officers said this is like a black market Costco and it really was," Rosen said. These businesses melt down the converters to get the precious metals inside- palladium, platinum and rhodium drive up the value.

$3M - that's a big number for inventory!
