I think one relevant question is: how does that amount of energy compare to the energy that the earth is bombarded with by the sun anyways? If it is miniscule (say less than 1%) in comparison, will that have a significant impact on global warming?

https://news.mit.edu/2011/energy-scale-part3-1026

>A total of 173,000 terawatts (trillions of watts) of solar energy strikes the Earth continuously. That's more than 10,000 times the world's total energy use.

So even if we get all of our current energy needs from these sources, that is less than 0.01% of the energy earth gets from the sun. Is that going to have a significant effect on the temperature of the earth?

yeah. currently involved in a decade+ struggle to get my auditor certificate. it is hard. the exam is "simple" in the sense you have to regurgitate answers from an answer bank and that is it but i am simply not capable of crossing that exam barrier.
outside the exam? well i do work with people who have actually qualified their exams and its not like they have any more horns on their heads than i do. the people i work with specifically, their understanding is limited to how they could cram the exam. that's it.

i don't know how that makes me feel. salty? probably. i have given a lot to this endeavour without an end in sight. by law that makes me unfit to be an auditor, oh well, exams count. funny how you become a professional "after" you finish theoretical exams like an auditor and if you do it by any means necessary, you are told you are a professional now.

i am ranting at this point now. sorry
Energy from heat is never discussed with climate change, only energy from the greenhouse effect. Do you know what percentage of each (roughly) human activity is causing?
There are ways to protest without risking arrest: walkouts and silent vigils. Nobody will arrest people simply walking on the streets in silence.

Imagine the power of rivers of people covering the Russian city streets at the same time, simply walking in silence. No signs, no screaming, no pushing against police - just walking. It would send a strong signal to the leadership with minimal danger to the protesters.
Goals Are Abitrary
Perhaps also that Ukraine would be leveraging everything that's available to them, but Russia has to hold back somewhat to keep military capabilities in place elsewhere.
In the short term, low intensity large scale "offensive" action is probably the course to take with most potential return. Just poke with as many Russian server/service as possible. Since your country has a high risk of being (unfortunately) under Russian control soon, take some minimal precautions to cover your traces.

This is basically the same principle as international sanctions. Try to make everything harder for Russia and (unfortunately) for Russian people. Playing people's opinion against their leader. You can do the same in Belarus that saw civil unrest recently, mobilizing Russian soldiers.

"Imagine if the good guys were bad and the bad guys good."

But they aren't. And you know why? Because you can't have creativity and innovations without freedom. You can't have money and success without a population where the best and most successful are allowed to create and keep a large part of the value they build.

This is why dictatorships never build Silicon Valleys while their best and brightest quietly emigrate to work and create in freedom.
Somehow I have the impression that Russia has dropped the mask and doesn't feel it's necessary to pretend anymore.
How Knuckles Get Cracking
Portugal has had a really amazing experience with both Ukranian and Moldovan immigrant communities, the general sentiment is that they work hard and are generally extremely well qualified/experienced.

But not to take away from the solidarity which is indeed genuine. Portugal also has an extremely low birth rate problem and needs tax payers fast in order to prevent state pension funds' collapse in the next decades. So there is also a secondary motive here to attract families to Portugal.

Having locales by itself makes sense, you after all want to map real world information into the digital realm and for that to work you have to stick with whatever real world conventions are already established. Keep in mind that computers are often just used as better typewriters and a lot of information exchange still happens on paper. Moving from paper to fully digital is a process that takes decades, so you can't just decide that digital uses '.' instead of ',' as all your printouts will be wrong.

The part that doesn't make sense in C and other languages is that locales are forced on you as global state. And not just by default, they don't even provide locale-free alternatives, you have to modify the global state and reset it after every use, which is cumbersome, slow and error prone. C++ added the locale-free `std::to_chars()`, so things are slightly improving at least, but it's still an ugly and largely unnecessary mess.

That and possibly the Western intelligence/military has been training and providing hardware to the Ukrainians to set up redundancy in their network. The threat of invasion has been there since 2014.

Which made me wonder whether an open-source kit to create an inexpensive 4G connection tower with an ethernet plug at the other end exists? Such a project would be _invaluable_ in areas hit by war or other disasters in the modern age of information. I'm thinking something as cheap as possible with an open-source firmware that can be flashed onto cheap hardware such as a Raspberry Pi: build it, flash it, plug it in. Is anybody working on this already?

> would cripple the ability to (re-)train Ai systems which might be used in military defense systems.

Crippling use-cases is quite difficult: how could you distinguish at hardware/firmware-level object detection for fighter jets vs object detection for cars. Under the hood everything is just a bunch of compute units with extremely wide ALUs. I would even say, it's next to impossible to cripple "AI" without crippling graphics engines and most GPGPU kernels.

EDIT: Ah, you meant drivers. Yeah, that's perhaps more doable (since the OS can provide context on the calling application), also more detectable by the end-users: many people diff drivers to find patched vulnerabilities, security researchers would eventually notice it.
The problem I see in Portugal is that doing business is expensive. Also, their internal market has very low disposable income, with high taxes thus low savings. And they seem to go doubling down on it, unless you're a rich foreigner.
I do not think you “sympathize”, I’m reading through your lines that you are quite enjoying it. I’m not in Russia, it will not affect me, so don't be so excited. But such hostile nationalistic behavior will be remembered, and not only by me.

You have all the reasons to hate Putin - I hate him too. But if you are saying (literally or not) that you just hate Russians - feelings will quickly become mutual.
Will Portugal do the same for Angolans?
The “freakeconomics paper” [1]
tries to claim abortions Tower substantially after Roe. They don’t have hard data. This is what they offer:

> documented abortions rose sharply in the wake of Roe, from under 750,000 in 1973 (when live births totaled 3.1 million) to over 1.6 million in 1980 (when live births totaled 3.6 million). If illegal abortions were already being performed in equivalent numbers, one would not expect a seven-year lag in reaching a steady state. Moreover, the costs of an abortion — financial and otherwise —dropped considerably after legalization.

You are correct some states were legal earlier. Donohue and Levitt have a section on that in a 2019 follow up paper [2]. Claim: Crime dropped earlier in those states that legalized earlier.

It’s horrible to consider this angle, but this could turn out to be a blessing for many European countries. There is a massive shortage of labour in large parts of Europe. There are large, well integrated Ukrainian minorities already in many European countries and many Ukrainians are well educated (esp. in the much needed STEM fields). So not to put Portugal down but it is certainly to some point self serving and I could actually see competition between Euro countries for those people in the medium term.
Nice, I love seeing people work on projects to improve access to public transit.

Regarding a similar project, I've written some backends[1] for the smashing[2] dashboard to show real time locations of buses and estimated arrival times at stops. I run it on a raspberry pi connected to a TV in my front room. When I get up, I turn on the TV and have my weather, calendar, some headlines, and an ETA for my bus to get to work.

Some apartment buildings in LA are using my dashboard to show the nearby buses too.

Interesting premise for an article, then it just ends without going further into the topic. Meh.
anyone know how i am able to lie flat on my back, put my hand together behind me and push against the hands which results in me cracking my back throughout the spine? or the way i am standing and i twist on the opposite side of my upper body at the hip and that causes a long string of cracks on the lower back.

or, this is nice. i have someone stand on my pelvic bone or lower back, somewhere in there and use the heel of their foot to press down on a specific part. the loud crack is so nice. is that a problem or am i fine?

edit: yeah, about the back thing. often when i am sleeping on my side, i get this tightness around my rib cage. it feels like something is suffocating me. i do the back cracking thing and the tightness gets relieved. dunno why
As wolfgang42 says, these days it's common for JS to be disabled by user preference but <noscript> elements are not displayed. Sometimes only a subset of JS is disabled. <noscript> is really for browsers that don't support JS at all.

A simple alternative if you want to display something to users who have JS entirely disabled (i.e. not partially) is to use a CSS class 'nojs' and inline <script> very early in the file. If you're happy to assume a HTML5 browser:

<script>document.write("<style>.nojs{display:none}</style>")</script>

and if not:

<script type="text/javascript">document.write("<style type='text/css'>.nojs{display:none}</style>")</script>

If running on a browser that doesn't support CSS or JS, this will display the 'nojs' content, which is probably what you want. You can of course use this method without <script> to provide a 'nocss' class that will display on CSS-incapable browsers.

I prefer this over the method of deleting a DOM node after everything has been loaded and parsed, because this inline script is guaranteed to take effect before the 'nojs' content is reached so it's impossible for the 'nojs' content to be temporarily flashed to users on a slow connection (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_of_unstyled_content). It's also a bit more versatile (you can place the 'nojs' anywhere, use it for alternative form elements etc.), and it's short.

If you want to do something more like progressive enhancement, where the default is to not show something fancy unless JS loads successfully, add a 'js' class, where an inline <style> sets display:none, followed by JS which overrides the inline style to make 'js' elements visible again. Similarly with elements you want to display (or not) depending on specific feature detections.
I believe it's something that needs to be trained, where it helps that you are feeling well physically, and also that there are some things that are actually detrimental to concentration ability because you train the opposite.

Spend time focused, build more of that ability. Spend time clicking from news headline to news headline while receiving notifications of everything under the sun, build more of that.

All the things people list either make you physically better (like exercise and good sleep), make you focus, or make you do without the constant distractions for a while.

Yeah this type of thing is used to justify all kinds of draconian policies.

Be extremely wary of any one who just says 'It works' to justify an action and gives no context.

'It works' always has a ton of context. How much does it work? What situations does it work? What is the sampling error? Is the tradeoff for that improvement worth it?

Drilling is not the problem which stands in the way for using earth warmth.

It is pollution of ground water, risk of earth quakes, transportation of the heat, local cool down and having to drill new wholes.

In Europe we have tried, and tested with wholes up to 1km depth but it is not as ideal as one might think. Otherwise it would have been used on a large scale already.
Secondary Cratering Discovered on Earth: The Wyoming Impact Crater Field
Well, we both have about the same size nuclear arsenals, while the US’ military budget is 10x more than Russia’s. In other words, we spend almost as much just maintaining our arsenal as they do their entire military budget. Again, same size arsenals - so yes, I’d say it’s probably a pretty huge proportion of their spending.
It’s the least they could do.

You are reading wrong: I am in Eastern Europe and I have Russians ancestry so hating Russians would mean hating myself.

I can't do much really and I am just wondering here how we can solve this mess...
I have faced the opposite problem. When talking to people, even when we were using GCS or Azure, I find myself refering to those services using AWS terms (when applicable). And that is not because I have used AWS the most but because their names are much easier to refer to then saying Cloud Storage (Google Cloud) or Storage Account Blob Container (Azure)... and most people I talk to are familiar with AWS terms.

That's for the same reason I want to refer to my cousin by his first name, and not "My fathers second brothers oldest son", unless I am introducing him to people who don't know him and need to know that detail about him.

Once you know S3, you know what S3 is... and when you don't you can look it up until you do. After that, that makes communication much easier.

Of course, you need to keep in mind who you are talking to and refer to those services by what it means to your audience... or introduce those terms if you have to, to your audience. But for most people, this is rather rare, so why optimise for this rare communication?

Most of the time, we are talking to people who know the names and it becomes so much eaiser to communicate. We skip the description of description of what we are talking about every time we mention it. Having short names optimises the names for the conversations that happen the most, which is the great design.
Ditto this. One person, one device, one language, one locale is a terrible assumption.

My Android phone is set to a language that doesn't match the country I'm in, and it hyphenates all the local phone numbers wrong. This is beyond stupid. The phone knows which country the numbers belong to. I would expect it to format each number according to the conventions of the country they belong to, not according to the language I've selected. I'm not doing anything fancy like RTL, either.
