>Overall, as a user of Safari, I appreciate that it lags behind the bleeding edge. Stability, battery life, and privacy are important things to me.

Some features could help with that like https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLImageEl... , if Safari is always behind 1 year or two then you always lose battery and bandwidth, so yeah Safari devs are not chasing efficiency if they would then they would have been the first not the last to implement this.

Also try to search for "broken/not working in Safari" and you will see is not all about some nightmarish privacy invading APIs.

Nothing concrete to add, just the anecdote that the plasma physics class I took in grad school hands down had some of the sketchiest looking physicist math I think I have ever seen. Felt like a SWAT team from the mathematics department might burst through the door at any time.
> Trump it mobilized the 99% of people who don't have beliefs as much as they have

I thought it was the judicial branch and an injunction that stopped it.

>> On 23 September 2020, TikTok filed a request for a preliminary injunction to prevent the app from being banned by the Trump administration. This request was filed with the District Court for the District of Columbia. The preliminary injunction was approved by Judge Carl J. Nichols on September 27.

Then, the current President rescinded it and ordered an actual review of the risks. Something we probably should have done prior to the attempted banning.

>> In June 2021, President Joe Biden signed an executive order revoking the Trump administration ban on TikTok, and instead ordered the Secretary of Commerce to investigate the app to determine if it poses a threat to U.S. national security.

I'm confused on exactly what you think happened.

It really doesn't matter. We can say that it's good that companies like Google or Facebook don't want to be part in any of this or we can say that even the slightest interest in user privacy makes it morally impossible for companies to operate in China. What's simply not true is the idea that Google or Facebook not being in China has anything to do with them being American companies.
My perception is that that's a position that most people would find weird.

The politicians in the UK have just slapped the harshest restrictions on people's liberties since (I assume) the world wars, and then they completely ignored them themselves.

People weren't able to attend loved ones funerals, but the politicians where having parties in their offices.

I'm intrigued to find out why you don't think this is a bad thing?

Just like banning trading, this will be circumvented by family/business proxies doing the trades. Including potential family proxies, in the public accounting, would probably be the most effective move to motivate ethical behavior. At least put some risk in the form of the relationship to the business partners, given the vast amounts of money flowing.

>If we all take fiber pills and probiotics will that reduce waste, and also toilet paper consumption?

The problems I see are unintended consequences [0] of the policy. Perverse results could include additional environmental costs to producing and delivering fiber pills and probiotics (there would still be costs if added to the water). Unexpected drawbacks could include side effects from the fiber and probiotics delivered in this way (especially for people with unusual gut microbiomes, or defects in the production of fiber and probiotic supplements), and civil unrest from people who oppose the mandatory additions to the tap water (which may ultimately result in changes in the nation's political power).

Most universities have a policy that if the professor authored a textbook he himself assigns, then he is required to return a comparable proportion of the royalties.

Perhaps he was forcing you to buy brand new so that he didn't overpay the royalties back (i.e. they may have had a simple formula based on the number of students, regardless of whether you bought or not).
I could see increased fuel-efficiency to be a sensible goal. As that would simplify logistics and even improve operation capabilities. Same sized fuel-tanks bigger range and operation time. Electrification, not so sure. Ofc, making everything nuclear could improve civilian technology.
Ideas are great however even a small country like the Netherlands is looking at a trillion € bill to switch to 100% renewable by 2050.
In my view, this can be part of the solution. The biggest issue is an incentive issue with tenure.

[1] Professors are critically punished for poor research, mildly punished for poor teaching

[2] A base level of teaching acumen is required. Improving teaching at all is costly, so teachers are willing to pay up to the opportunity cost of lost research impact for course materials

[3] So they systematize and outsource necessary non-core components -- course content, course grading (via TAs and PhD candidates), and where permissible test and homework creation and evaluation. Since they have no real impact to them for the costs involved, such as purchase of texts, they proceed forward purchasing into the racket

How to fix? Make teaching reviews (student and outside observer) factors for keeping tenure. Don't include as part of tenure review beyond what is already there. This gives you the best of all worlds: world-class professors invested in quality teaching.
Dismissing my dissent as Fox News derived is low, my friend. The "handful of sand" [0] I've inspected has led to different conclusions. I don't think that makes you a dolt and I'd appreciate the same in return. It's just a good way to live.

I think another difference is Engineering has a history of rationality and mathematics behinds it. In my opinion computer programming (in most cases) is something like novel writing and includes many creative/non-reproducible problem solving works (art?).
I prefer to not refer myself as engineer because of that hidden semantic assumptions that comes with the word. Instead because of popularity of rational thinking many software developers like to categorize themselves as engineers. (more about this: Object Thinking by David West)

I touched grass frequently as a kid and still learned BASIC on my Commodore (and later TI-99/4A).

I don't think kids, in general, should be learning to code. Most of them will hate it. But to some, coding is like piano, ballet, or painting: a form of art and of play. Those kids will need resources the most; and they need to enjoy their time spent programming while childhood lasts.

Really great series on making fiberglass molds from a live pattern/part to crank out laminate (carbon fiber or fiberglass) copies. Seems like they could do that with this pretty easily, not sure if there is a market but it's a great start:

(The channel is fantastic if you have any interest in making carbon fiber parts. The guy does great and very practical demos and they have some very good products for small batch/hobbyist projects. I just wish they would sign with a distributor in the US)
The fun thing is that a PDE’s solution is emergent by definition: it is an interplay of the dynamics (specified by the the PDE), the boundary conditions, initial conditions, and maybe a forcing function (energy or information pump). Change one of those things and you’ll get a different solution. You might be reminded of fractals, which are a special case of iterated function systems, roughly a discrete version of iterated function systems. Or maybe you might think of cellular automata, all based on local update rules and some initial conditions.

The answer to your actual question is literally called the wave equation (first in the list on the linked webpage). The left side talks about some variable u and how it changes over time. The right side is how u changes over space. And the two sides are linked via a constant c. By observing the solution or by working out the units, we can understand c to be the phase velocity, or roughly, the wave speed. So the way that u evolves over space is limited by how it evolves over time (and vice versa)! u cannot react to all things in space instantaneously. Therefore, a wave emerges, carrying updates from one part of space to another.
If we even accept the premise (and it's a doubtful one, obscene wealth was always visible), it's worth pointing out that a lot of wealth is generated simply by being in the public eye. Cynically put, the not-wealthy like having a look at the things they'll never have enough to hand over money for it.

As for "millionaire next door", they're still around. The US has 20 million of them. But most of the "next door" wealth is achieved through doing a "normal" job. (I.e. jobs that most other people can relate to, and could possibly achieve working in)

Ostentatious wealth is requiring arbitrage of some form, at scale. Celebrities arbitrage fame. And it's a smart business, because part of their payment is more fame. Hence the "crass popularity" contests. People pay them for that popularity and make them more popular.
Unfortunately, travel has been turned into a commodity just like anything else. “Bragging rights” associated with travel have only become more desirable with the spread of social media, and other things that allow you to “travel” superficially- such as cruises.

The point of TFA (and Seneca's letter on which it is based) is not that you should just accept your Box of Daily Experience. It is that although you may have (and should have) control over most of what makes up your own Box of Daily Experience, there will always be a Box of Daily Experience. It is not arguing complacency about the contents, but is arguing for not trying to run from the basic fact of its existence.

Validkube is an open-source site designed to help developer teams quickly validate, secure, and clean their Kubernetes YAML.

The idea behind Validkube is to fuse together the capabilities of three other popular open-source projects (kubeval, kubectl-neat and trivy) and present them in a single view, providing users with a way to ensure YAML code hygiene and security, in one place, with just a few clicks of the button.

I'd appreciate any feedback. Feel free to share your experience, and of course contribute to the project to add more capabilities and tools >>> https://github.com/komodorio/validkube

Both individual reporters and TV show producers develop a go to list of people who at least seem to know what they're talking about, usually don't have too much of an axe to grind, are presentable in the case of TV, etc. And, yes, to a lot of people they can't really imagine being invited on a TV show so someone who is "must be a real expert" which often isn't the case.

Long ago I interned for the group supporting the C-30 ARPANET IMP. At one point the IMP was a 16-bit machine, emulating the old Honeywell (?) minicomputer that the original IMP code was written for. At some point they needed more memory, so they lashed on another 4-bit bit slice, and it became a 20-bit machine.

There was an alternate microcode load for it, which implemented an instruction set similar to that of a PDP-11, and could run an ancient version of Unix. (maybe not so ancient back in 1985, but definitely pre-BSD) We used one or two of those for our development machines, and it was my job to write software tools on them, using C with 20-bit words and 10-bit bytes.

Man, it was a pain in the ass.
Judging by Cargo.lock, it has about 60 dependencies.

This is a very dumb meme that people use to avoid learning anything about the actual hurdles that are currently being faced by fusion researchers.

>Just ask yourself: who has what incentives?

The company for more money? Similar to the incentives behind Google and Facebook.
What is also interesting is the period with zero flu cases reported, and the correlative spike in covid cases. On its own this does not prove they're related, however it is worth noting and does lead to some interesting hypotheses: were we isolating enough to curb the flu? If yes, why did isolation benefit flu numbers while increasing covid numbers. Also, were flu cases mislabeled as covid cases? If yes, why didn't these drop in relation to PCR, rapid, and other tests emerging?

Allow me to twiddle the brim of my shiny aluminum hat here and ask objectively one more nagging question, was there any possible benefit to misreporting this data? What resources and opportunities did that afford at the time?
Sometimes they do. Regardless, if it's often coming from funding that implies the authors have to have grants or come from institutions that are willing to pay, which disadvantages individuals without resources (they often have discounts for those without resources but in my personal experience the discount is absurdly small, like 15%, which is a lot for someone who just doesn't have external resources to publish under that model, if they're asking for 2k+ per paper).

Either way it creates a backward incentive structure, of pay to access.

There's no research on that page. Many of the linked articles that this individual has written also are vague on actual details/proof and only contain vague "this could happen!" comments. Beyond that, many of them also end with a plea for more fundraising.

>This guy needs a website team in the biggest way. It's hard to find the information and it's scattershot. It's very frustrating because the work he's doing is solid. Don't let the shitty web presence deter you.

All he needs to do is spend a little more time uploading data and evidence, and less time shoving as many "DONATE" buttons onto his page as he can. None of this looks like solid work, even his television appearances; it looks like someone who goes around throwing out lots and lots of loose speculation while asking to be paid to do so.
