Close your eyes and try to produce a complex sentence in your head. It's not that hard, it's easy to imagine being able to do it with a little practice.

In the US the majority of natural gas comes from "tight gas" which is produced by fracking. It can also be produced as a by-product of crude oil extraction (the alternative is flaring it off) or from biogas (capturing methane from trash), but both of those accounts for very little production [0].

There are industrial processes that need natural gas as part of the chemical reaction, so there will always be a market for it. Using natural gas for electricity or heating is definitely not "green" or renewable.

Good luck finding any consumer products that ever supported HDMI Ethernet Channel (HEC). In contrast, HEC capable HDMI cables with pins 14 and 19 in a twisted pair were widely available to the confusion of many.

Audio Return Channel (ARC) uses the same pins as HEC. Enhanced ARC (eARC), available on some newer TVs and AV Receivers/preamps/soundbars, takes advantage of the twisted pair to support greater audio bandwidth and surround channels (ARC was limited to 5.1), so it’s a happy ending for folks who bought HEC compatible HDMI cables.

The Ottawa police haven't been able to get any towing companies to come in and tow away any of the heavy trucks. From the articles I've read, the trucks at the border crossing were lighter pickup trucks, which can be towed away with regular tow trucks.

Some of the reasons listed as to the reluctance of towing companies to participate:
- the heavy truck towing companies get much of their business from the truck industry. If these towing companies were to tow away these heavy trucks, they may lose much of that business.
- many of the towing companies support the freedom convoy and their participants
- fear of violence against tow truck operators if they try to tow away these trucks

see https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/ottawa-protest-truck-t...

the police and government had ample time to prepare for the protest.

They should have restricted vehicle access near Parliament Hill once they heard the protesters were heading to Ottawa.

Basically? who, what, when, were, why and how.

AWS CloudTrail is far from perfect but it has been battle tested as much as any SaaS audit log out there.

Who: userIdentity.arn

What: requestParameters.*, responseElements.*

When: eventTime

Where: sourceIPAddress, sourceVpce, userAgent

Why: userIdentity.issuer/rolesession

How: eventName, eventSource

Baller move is to include internal ops actions in your log.

Main thing is to think of it as a product rather than an a feature. People don't want 10 different audit logs...everything should flow through it. With CloudTrail this extensibility comes through the requestParameters/responseElements sections. Most of the schema is fixed but in these sections its service-specific.

In terms of integration, push audit via webhook or various cloud event/message brokers is ideal, but at bare minimum the customer needs to be able to ingest that data wholesale to integrate with their security stack.

No, there's something "intrinsically" old-fashioned about round corners. Windows XP had round corners.

By managing the JVMs separately, you get major savings on updates, or if you have multiple apps deployed this way since they can share a JVM. When you update your app, it only needs to download your app - not the whole JVM. You can even change the JVM requirements in your version updates, and it will adjust to the new requirements when it updates, possibly even downloading a new JVM if it doesn't have one that meets the requirements yet.

My own favorite programming fonts of choice at the time are either Liberation Mono (https://www.programmingfonts.org/#liberation) or Cousine (https://www.programmingfonts.org/#cousine) the latter of which builds upon the former.

They're delightfully boring, are readable at smaller sizes, have a good Unicode support, don't seem to have ligatures so i don't have to bother disabling them (personal preference) and are completely free. Plus they can be used to work with code that has large information density (think legacy Java apps) without causing strain on my eyes due to their simple look.
Yeah, I've seen this approach work a lot. I've found https://www.enterpriseready.io is a good resource to learn more about the features that enterprises care about.

Wow, WGSL looks different from the last time I checked it out (not too long ago iirc). I've been playing around with wgpu and vulkan, but I disliked the wgsl syntax so much that I didn't bother pursuing it any further at the time. I'm actually going to give it another look now since I don't really like glsl syntax much at all either.

That seems like a bad idea. When illegal activity is done on the internet the first thing law enforcement will do is go after you (by subpoena'ing your ISP for your information based on IP). You also have places like Germany where copyright representatives are very aggressive and will fine/settle you large amounts when downloading pirated content.
> Can anyone name a Google library they've actually enjoyed using?

No, I'm mostly with you here. Closure Library is OK if you don't have anything else that replaces it (or if something you use ships with it, hello ClojureScript) but other than that, their libraries leave a lot to offer. But Google Closure Compiler is magic (in a good way) though, but you can't call that a library.

> Every library I've greatly enjoyed has come out of Facebook, never Google.

I'm sure I'm reading this the wrong way, because surely you can't mean that every library you've greatly enjoyed has only came from Facebook? Most of the really well made libraries I've used in my time, has come from private people, besides React. But now React has better replacements available as well, like Preact. But other than that, larger companies seem to be really bad at writing libraries for the world at large, which makes sense, they mostly care about their own use-cases.

Worth pointing out that pumped storage can store power for months if necessary, but it can generally only supply electricity for several hours before it runs out. Whereas a nuclear powerplant will supply that electricity indefinitely.

So if you have a wind lull that lasts several days you may run into issues unless you have a lot of pumped storage.
Perhaps I'm missing why this is desired for fonts in general, but my tendency when selecting one for editing code is to use one with a smaller vertical line spacing to minimise spacing between lines (and therefore fit more lines on screen).
Why do people appear to prefer the opposite (massive distance between lines)? I'm currently using Input Mono, not because I like it specifically as a font, but because it's relatively narrow, and because its vertical spacing is smaller than many others.
Switching phone ecosystems over a browser might not make sense, but switching over being restrictions on which browser engines you are allowed to use does imo.

> There will never he "just renewable" power grid due to renewables intermittency. The realistic options are renewables + some other energy source, or renewables + a lot of storage.

On the contrary, in principle there can be. However, even though a napkin estimate says it’s orders of magnitude cheaper, there are a lot of new and exciting problems with building an intercontinental power grid.

And I keep thinking I need to make a video or a blog post about why beamed power is a terrible idea for Earth, but again, technically it’s a way to avoid storage.

But enough batteries for cars is also enough for a renewable grid, so it’s probably not important.
Definitely.

I've been through my fair share of laptop brands over the years.

Leaving Apple out of the equation, the XPS is still the best built, thinnest (though not lightest) laptop I've had that's got the grunt to get my work done.

Yes the jDeploy installer is codesigned and notarized. The same installer is reused for every app. It figures out the specific app to be installed from a code in the installer name, so that, when run, the installer installs the correct app.

With a pkg I would need a different pkg for every app - which would need to be codesigned. Then we're back at the "need a mac to build mac app" issue. I wanted jDeploy fulfill WORA to whatever extent possible.

Surely it the product of these two that produce the mind-boggling heat flux that the pre-cooler is tasked with cooling. It feels like they're going to keep carving out smaller and smaller targets until they run out of money.

Statically-typed, Rust-like programming language
Hey guys,

I've been working on a Rust-like programming language written in Rust. I've worked on this compiler for the past months, and it's coming along very well.

The language features closures, higher-order function support, recursion, among other interesting things.

Here's the GitHub link, take a look!: https://github.com/geckolang/gecko

Also, come hang out on the official Discord server, I'm very interested on the compiler-design topic and can help you out if you have any questions about the project or designing your own compiler!

Wouldn't a large braille display be very useful for getting an overview of something? When consuming a big chunk of material, audio is very convenient, but being "linear" seems to make it quite impractical when you need to jump back and forth, or get an overview.

> designing a human process around pathological cases leads to processes that are themselves pathological.

Very true.

I remember, back when I was still interested in helping companies succeed, one “interview” I had.

I mentioned that I had this ginormous portfolio, packed with dozens of highly relevant, finished, tested, well-documented, well-designed open-source projects, a decade of checkin history, of tens of thousands of lines of code, hundreds of pages of documentation, dozens of articles on various sites, where I walk through my design philosophies and processes, in detail, teaching modules, etc.

The “interviewer” told me that they were not going to look at it, because “I could have faked it.”

My jaw dropped.

If I could fake that, then you should hire me immediately, at three times your offered salary.

I’m pretty sure that the decision had already been made, not to consider me (because eld), and this was their way of chasing me off. They weren’t going to waste the half hour or so, that it would take to do a quick review of my work.

It worked a treat. I couldn’t hang up, fast enough. I won’t go where I’m not wanted.

The other explanation, is that they actually believed what they said, which would mean they were completely insane.

> Mozilla systematically shut down all the reasons to advocate for them back around 2015-2016 when they assassinated their extensions

I don't think most people advocating Firefox did it for the extensions. My non-technical family and friends don't care about that.

Firefox used to be just better, obviously better, than what people were using before. Chrome changed that, but still Firefox was the one you could trust not to syphoon your data without your knowledge. It was about having the web not be mediated by a for-profit company that only wants you for your data.

Having competition in the browser-engine space is important, but outside of the HN crowd I don't think most FF advocates did it for that reason. If you didn't suffer IE, it doesn't seem that important.

FF lost because a) it stopped being perceived as better than the competition, b) Chrome took a lot of it's ground through attractive design and marketing, c) Chrome was perceived as better (and I'd argue it was in many respects, at least for a while), and d) Mozilla ended losing a lot of the trust of its previous advocates (with the pocket thing, the Mr Robot marketing stint...).

> Mozilla seems to ultimately draw funding from Google.

I never felt that bad about this point, but may be I was deluding myself. I trusted Mozilla to take Google money without compromising on making FF private and secure.

> t the most interesting challenger browser I'm aware of - Brave, run by ex-Mozilla people - is itself using the Blink engine

Here I agree. There can be lots of innovation in the browser space; may be not the engine, but I'm not sure we totally need it as long as the engine is OSS and there are other companies using it.

Brave does some interesting stuff, but I still would love to see more innovation in how we experience the web. The UX/UI of a browser hasn't changed in a long time.

2. Learn the help system

3. https://emacs.stackexchange.com

4. Bind eval-region to easy to reach key for testing and troubleshooting

Emacs is a what I would call an extreme case of a positive feedback loop application, the more effort and time you put in learning it, the more you get back. This is of course true for almost any application, but with Emacs being a complete text manipulation system more effort is required.

The site lists increased width of the font as a feature - but after discovering PragmataPro and Iosevka (that is usually mentioned as an open source alternative) I fell in love with how much horizontal space can be saved with those fonts.
