Remember that they are trying to push raptor 2 to even higher pressures, and try to be as efficient as possible. And they want the engine to be rapidly reusable hundreds of times.

I am sure they could run the engines at a lower chamber pressure with massive amounts of film cooling and have it be safe for a single launch. It would still be a very high performance engine by today's standards. 330 bar chamber pressure is just nuts.

Also, if the biggest remaining problem is the chamber melting, that means that they think they have the pumps under control. Which is a major achievement on its own.
I've been working on https://ayahbyayah.com an iOS app which I originally released in 2012 as a simple app for listening to the recitation of a single Ayat (verse) of the Qur'an.

I've been performing intermittent upgrades over the years as I wanted to retain the simplicity, ease of use with a focus on providing the most accurate and clearest Ayat text in any app.

The latest update has incorporated word by word audio timings and advanced play back controls for a completely hands-free operation, even serves as a teleprompter for the Qur'an.
> Booking.com said "talk to the hotel" and the hotel said "talk to booking.com".

I got trapped in a loop there as well, it was pretty wretched. Hotel would only except credit card details sent via plaintext emails (on the phone I couldn't reach anyone at the purported hotel, just a call center, where they couldn't deal with processing), nobody would release me from the obligation to pay, neither booking.com nor the hotel hotline. I just ignored their emails after a certain point, deleted my account, and hope nothing ever comes of it.

However, the risk of myocarditis following vaccination is consistently higher in younger males, particularly following a second dose of RNA mRNA-1273 vaccine

I think there is a chance you forgot to perceive the Bauhaus within it's historical context. The Bauhaus kitchen I mentioned absolutly was an improvement in terms of both raw usability and technological quality compared to the typical German kitchen that was common back in that day.

Some of that was of course achieved on the back of more modern kitchen devices and electricity, but most of it was just thinking about where to put things, how they are interacted with in daily use and giving it an aesthetically pleasing form. The stated goal of e.g. that kitchen was to give the modern housewife more time by reducing unnecessary movements by clever design.

This is why I don't really get the tube amp example. Tube amps (as nearly all other electrical devices have been buily more rugged and over engineered back in the day. The dynamic that lead to the degraded build quality has been mostly societal and systemic (customers not as willing/able to pay money for quality, mamifacturers being more interested in increasing shareholder value by replacing a high quality potentiometer with a cheap membrane button while calling it progress). This is not progress it is the 20th century equivalent of a babylonian merchant selling low quality grain in 1750 BC [0] or in other words: somebody tries to get rich by selling low quality stuff. The design follows the market here — most designers I know would die for a company that finally let's them design good stuff.

Bauhaus designs were certainly not low quality stuff however. A Bauhaus stool certainly had different design parameters than e.g. a Jugendstil one, some of which also made it cheaper to manufacture, but cheaping out was not the goal here. It was to make design more accessible and more usable.

A bass player today can make the legit choice that they want to get the best sound at the needed volume for the lightest possible weight. A quality tube bass amp weighs upwards 20 kg — without a speaker cabinet. Getting yourself a good class D amp is not a bad choice in today's time and age. Of course you could also compare a top of line tube amp to a cheap knockoff class D amp operated with an even cheaper switch mode PSU, but that would be like going from 200€ cheap laptop to an M1 macbook pro and declaring all non-apple laptops shit. There are really really good class D amps out there both in terms of sound and function.

British people absolutely have freedom to own guns, just perhaps not in the way Americans do, but yes they are in no way forbidden nor is anyone's freedom in danger - I know lots of British people with guns, way more so than where I'm originally from(Poland). You apply for a permit, then a local officer comes over to your house to just make sure you have somewhere safe to store it and that's basically it, go and buy yourself a gun, no problem at all. If you know anyone who lives on a farm they will most likely own at least one shotgun, for shooting rabbits if nothing else.

Yeah there’s the downside. The interface is a bit unwieldy. Documentation for lxd is far lower quality compared to the massive and mature docker ecosystem.

However if you know a lot about what docker does at a lower level, that knowledge is transferable to something like lxd. Most of these containerization tools are all using the same Linux kernel features under the hood!
While I most often use hotels.com, I have used booking many times. I have never had any trouble nor complaint with the website, but perhaps that's because I'm in the EU and there are more regulations (as another commentor noted).

For those interested in the specific risks of various L2s as they stand, L2Beat has the best overview: https://l2beat.com/?view=risk

While the various L2s are all pretty bleeding edge, the current state/alternative [1] is that a majority of the TVL is being bridged to alternate L1s, where the bridges are also extreme weaknesses [2]. There was the recent $320M Wormhole hack [3], the last record white-hat payout ($2M bounty on $850M at risk with the Polygon Bridge) [4][5], and $2.2B sits on Avalanche's Bridge [6] which is an EOA that is secured by literally 4 SGX machines.

Modern SSD are much faster at read than lz4, the fastest compression algorithm, at decompression and just 2-3 times slower in practice when writing than lz4 at compression. And they do not tax CPU while doing that, which is important since heavy memory usage may come from CPU-intensive tasks.

I did some benchmarks in my laptop and for heavy compilation tasks that may occasionally spike the memory usage over the amount of RAM memory compression was not beneficial compared with using SSD for swap.

The picture changes if one needs encrypted storage and cannot use hardware encryption on SSD. The software encryption will tax CPU on roughly same scale as lz4 and lz4 is still faster overall for read/write combination.
> I think residential solar should be vastly more subsidized.

I don't. The grid has to be sized for the worst case load, not for the average load, so reducing the latter with residential solar doesn't reduce the cost of having the grid around. And utility-scale solar is much cheaper per unit of power than residential solar.
You can launch and land with fewer g-forces if you like. It just uses more fuel, reduces payload, and increases costs. But it could be done.

Does it include (or have planned) any features relating to full text search, more specifically for mixing ranking/search with graph queries?

One use case I have (solved by some current graph DBs) is performing a complex full text search (boolean operators, stopword removal, fuzzy matching etc.), which alters search ranking based on graph properties (e.g. a node with more edges might get a reduction in score, the root of a tree might get a boost, etc.).

I'm still going through the tutorial, so haven't got to grips with what the DB is capable of yet.
I absolutely love uBlock Origin.

I have recently switched to AdGuard as a system-wide blocker on all my devices since uBlock will be unusable on Chromium browsers due to them blocking MV2 extensions in 2023.

While still a good product, the UI is nowhere near the quality of uBlock Origin, nor are the options which are available to the user.
France is not serious about climate? If you're in a neighbor country of France: congrats, your electricity is much more polluted than France's is.

Énergie Nucléaire was a thing of De Gaulle, but not for these reasons. France needed independence and needed to provide electricity, and the only way was nuclear (at the time).

Given the current situation, I think France didn't do too bad. Only one candidate in France on par with Jancovici tho, Fabien Roussel.

I live in France, never heard of this "Net Zero" you're talking about.

Related to this topic: When running integration/e2e tests, setting up the environment (all the required services, data stores etc.) in the right sequence, loading them with test data and so forth can be thorny to automate.

Good automation around preparing/provisioning the testing environment is a necessary companion to the testing tools/frameworks themselves.

Most commonly, fully-capable testing environments aren't available during the inner loop of development (where the dev setup can usually only run unit tests or integration tests for 1-2 services + a database).

Because of this, people tend to rely solely on their CI pipelines to run integ/e2e tests, which can slow things down a lot when one of those tests fails (since the write/run/debug loop has to go through the CI pipeline).

As an industry, I think we should start taking automation and developer productivity more seriously—not least when it comes to writing and debugging tests for complex distributed systems. The more we can lower the marginal cost of writing and running tests, the more effective our test suites will become over time.

Shameless plug: My company (https://garden.io/) is developing a framework and toolchain to bring the full capabilities of a CI pipeline to the inner loop of development, so that developers can efficiently run all/any test suites (including integ/e2e tests) in their personal dev environments.

We do this by capturing the full dependency graph (builds, deploys, tests, DB seeding etc.) of the system in a way that can power CI, preview environments and inner-loop development.
> Anyone going on about the climate and refuses to put nuclear energy at the forefront of the conversation is unserious and is only interested in virtual signaling in my opinion.

I think it is unserious to call every other solution other than nuclear energy unserious in a climate discussion. Germany, for instance, has very serious discussions on climate neutrality without nuclear energy.

These numbers are exceptionally high on aggregate. From the article: "out of every 1,000 people studied, there were around 4 more people in the COVID-19 group than in the control group who experienced stroke."

This means that for every million people who got COVID-19, we would expect 4,000 more strokes. Using a lower-bound estimate that 50% of the population will get COVID-19 at some point, this would mean roughly 650,000 more cases in the US alone (~330 million people), and this is in addition to baseline. A totally devastating pandemic.
Well, I guess all those football players and kids got unlucky then, right?

People were dying all the time, but suddenly when the vaccines came, we started seeing videos of football players dropping dead on the fields. What a coincidence right?

Well to be fair, we did see people shaking on the ground and convulsing in China and other places in the very early days of the pandemic. I'm sure that wasn't just bullshit right? It just stopped happening because... reasons...

How much methane was in the mixture?
By what calculation is the density of Hydrogen 40kwh/kg? Shouldn't that be closer to 33kwh?

17 kWhr/kg of electricity per kg is a pretty great number, but impossible to know if that's a real improvement without knowing how much methane had to go in to it too.

Ethernodes is known to be inaccurate [0] and is missing a lot of nodes because they can't index nodes that are maxed out on peers or are behind NAT and can't accept incoming connections from nodes they haven't connected to first. I know this for a fact because my own personal node (been online for over a year now) is not indexed on ethernodes, nor are 70% of the peers my node has. Only 2 out of my 15 peers are AWS IP addresses.

As a general rule - its very difficult to get anything close to an authoritative census of a decentralized peer to peer protocol.

That depends on how you want to store the energy. There have been some talk in Norway about using excess energy to pump water from ground level to fill up existing lakes as a form of energy storage. There seems to be quite a few power plants based on hydro power other places in Europe as well, so it could be a feasible strategy there as well [1, page 5]

There is not evidence that heart inflammation after vaccination is less common or severe than after COVID-19 infection. For instance: https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.12.23.21268276v... suggests rates several fold higher for vaccination than infection. Not to say that on balance vaccination is anything but preferable to naive infection, but it's not a side effect free panacea.

Several commentors have written this advice, but almost always if I check the hotel website directly I see much higher prices than what are offered on booking. hotels.com, or agoda.

However, with flights and flight search websites I do sometimes see close to equal pricing, and in that domain I almost always check the airline website itself and book directly when possible.
Not related to Booking.com, but these types of companies sometimes screw you over in ways you didn't even imagine.

On my first trip to the USA (traveling from South Africa), Travelstart managed to somehow inject the word "DOCUMENT" into my name that was on the tickets.

So my name e.g. "JOHN DOE" became "JOHN DOCUMENT DOE". At the customs/border control in Atlanta they noted that my ticket's name didn't correspond to my passport, which was actually a huge problem. Luckily they eventually let me into the country because the TSA agent was super friendly and "vouched" - which is bizarre on its own.

Needless to say, I always order tickets directly from the airliner now.

I had to make a new MS account to migrate a 2nd minecraft account. The account has only ever been used from the game launcher, and they have the analytics that the account was created for the migration. But apparently there was "suspicious activity" that violates TOS and they auto locked it, and rather than contact the gmail address I used for the account, they demand a phone number.

Tbf, I'm considering just raising this with the authorities, given a lot of relevant authorities, as not everyone migrating an account will be ab adult, and asking for kids phone numbers seems like a GDPR slamdunk.

Immunity can be boosted through exposure (indeed, this is one of the reasons why we may be seeing higher rates of shingles in young people, or why we see occasional outbreaks of pertussis in people who were vaccinated awhile back).

But for that, you are, at most, looking for the occasional transient exposure - not the bombardment that one is getting right now.
