Also further fun bonus is that this requires special license as it is too heavy. The smaller truck license C1 qualifies, but still that means extra tests and training.
You say that like it’s trivial to build a reliable OLTP key value store once you have a correct raft implementation. Never mind real world performance or reliability.

That's not true though, because it's not 1:1 -- we don't burn one tree, pause, plant a new tree, we burn millions of trees while many more millions of other trees are simultaneously being grown and are at various stages of maturity, only a handful of which (relatively) will be burned for fuel like this.

The carbon from the tree burned can be absorbed by all the other, currently growing, trees.
This is from 1999 and should not be recommended today, as C++11 was such a huge improvement over C++98/C++03.

I assume we'd be looking at a Topol SS-25 missile type attack from Russia? For a city such as Boston, are we only looking at a single strike, or does the doctrine call for multiple warheads per city/metro area?

For Boston at least you only have to be 7-8 miles from ground zero to avoid most of the damage and due to the prevailing winds, most of the fallout (from a ground strike) would be towards the north east (an airburst doesn't seem to produce any appreciable fallout).
Not sure the numbers on this site add up. Passenger flights are up to around 8 passenger miles per kg CO2 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_economy_in_aircraft#/medi...).

At these rates and a great circle distance of ~8000km you'd get 4 metric tons for two people round trip. Long-haul planes are likely more efficient than average per passenger mile, so some SFO-LHR round-trips are actually closer to 1 metric ton per person. Still not great, of course.
I’m pretty convinced that they’re sandbagging to see what happens and how little they can try to get what they want. They’re definitely playing mental games with the rest of the world. What’s much less clear to me is what the actual goal is and what the state of their country will be once it’s settled. Gain Ukraine, lose connection to the rest of the world and most foreign trade, plus put your citizens through hell…it makes me think that the plan must be much bigger to make this “worth it”, assuming we’re dealing with a rational actor.
Those finding fault in this may be better served by the B6ppen climate classification, which is a global index that takes into account not just temperature but also rainfall and whether the rain is strongest in summer or winter.

Notably, it shows that the idyllic Mediterranean/Californian climate can also be found in parts of Western Australia, South Africa, and Chile.

The vast majority of nukes are "counterforce" - they're targeted against military targets, primarily the enemy's own nuclear arsenal. Strategic reasoning for this is pretty simple: only by destroying the enemy's weapons can you prevent the destruction of your own citizens, and destroying the enemy's citizens is pretty cold comfort if all of yours are dead. I've heard that each Minuteman 3 silo in the U.S. has multiple nukes targeted on it, because they want to be really sure that they destroy that missile if it hasn't left yet. Many of these warheads are SLBMs, where flight times are only a couple minutes, so that they can hit as soon as it looks like a launch is imminent.

After ICBM silos, primary targets are (roughly in order):

1) Runways longer than 7000 feet, long enough for a B-52 to take off and land.

2) Naval bases, primarily those involved in the basing and maintenance of ballistic missile subs.

3) Command and control facilities of the U.S. military and government. This includes much of Washington D.C, the Pentagon, major government institutions like the CIA and NSA, and secondary military bases where leadership might relocate to.

4) Port facilities, which may become naval bases in a war.

5) Refineries and oil fields.

6) Concentration of heavy industry where military equipment might be made. Think of metro Detroit auto factories, or Caterpillar's factory, or Hendy Ironworks in Sunnyvale.

7) Office parks where significant brain trusts are located. You can bet that Livermore, Apple's headquarters, and the Googleplex are on a target list. (The Googleplex is actually in the blast radius for Moffett Field, so it may not need to be a separate target.) Also major universities.

8) Major city centers.

If you live in a suburban bedroom community, there is a very high chance of you surviving an initial attack unscathed. Nuke blast radiuses are often surprisingly small, relative to metro areas, and there is no reason for Russia to target a lightly-populated bedroom community 10 miles outside of the city.
I think a lot of commenters are missing the point of this site. It's an opinionated collection of books they think should be weeded. They're specifically talking about libraries trying to provide information to the general public. They explain (emphasis mine):

> Weeding is an essential component of library collection management. Most libraries simply do not have unlimited space, and we must continually make room for new materials. Weeding is necessary to remain relevant to our users and true to our missions. Remember – *unless your library exists to archive and preserve materials for the ages*, we are not in the business of collecting physical things. We collect information and provide access to information. We love books as much as anyone else, and sometimes hard decisions have to be made. How many times have you said, “But I just bought that!” and then realized it was ten years ago?

Okay, thats my kind of writing. But the article does concede that Egbert got a re-roll later.
I don't like the move but this isn't remotely similar to the great firewall.
Correct. Also consider Civil Asset Forfeiture. The government has already made it infinitely risky to carry in excess of $5k cash on your person.

TSA gets kickbacks from DHS for tipping them off when you carry large amounts of cash via carryon.
> The solution is give those users options for unfiltered results

Important to remember at this point in the conversation, DuckDuckGo didn't say that they were going to filter these results (although I also wouldn't really have a problem with that), they announced that they were going to downrank some of the sites.

Safe search toggles turn off actual content removal, which kind of makes sense -- there's a list of "mature" sites that are included in the list of possible search results or excluded. But ranking is different, turning off a site ranking doesn't make any sense in the context of a search engine. You want a toggle to make results no longer be a list?

Everything on DDG is ranked, everything is. There aren't separate categories of ranked and unranked content, there's no set of websites where DuckDuckGo isn't ranking them alongside other websites. It doesn't make any sense to say that DuckDuckGo shouldn't rank political content or news sites when returning them in searches, I don't know from a UI perspective what that would even look like.

I guess completely randomly sorting the search results for those queries? But... I mean, no one would want that feature, you would never be able to find relevant information for a political query.

Even before DuckDuckGo made this announcement and even before the war in Ukraine started, DuckDuckGo was always ranking these sites. There was never a period of time where these sites weren't being ranked higher or lower on search pages than other sites, and that ranking was always being determined in part by DuckDuckGo's internal bias about how rankings should work and what was and wasn't a "relevant" or accurate news source. From day one, from the start of the search engine, they were always ranking political content.
I don’t think it ever got open sourced, although I do remember reading about it years back.
> If you want fallout then you want an air burst to the West and let the Easterly winds spread the fallout.

This might be true, but I've heard speculation that a surface burst would produce more fallout. Their reasoning is that fallout from an air burst would have considerably less dirt or debris so it would (supposedly) remain airborne for a longer period of time. On the other hand, a surface burst would darn near vaporize anything in the blast radius, and all that newly created radioactive debris would fall much quicker.

My sources could be incorrect, so if you've got something that indicates otherwise I'd appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction. :-)

well they did have a big recall push to fix about 3.5 million toyotas so that's probably why.

if the problem was with the car cpu bit flipping like the one report said was possible it's possible that those cpus were just defective and more susceptible to that error. either way the issue got aged out by attrition.
In Germany, a bus can go up to 100 km/h (62 mph), cargo trucks including tractor units 90 km/h (56 mph) - this would include the "N2" vehicle class.

However, there seems to be a "M1" class for passenger vehicles that isn't weight restricted.

My understanding is that the truck cannot be classified as a commercial vehicle (too heavy) so they classify it as a N2 truck to save tax, but they could presumably also classify it as M1 (paying the tax but avoiding the need for the speed limiter). I read it as "commercial vehicle" being a third class that would normally be used as a way to bypass the tax if the vehicle wasn't too heavy for that.
With nuclear weapons you know that getting all enemy weapons is a slim chance. So you aim for maximum destruction of the enemy.

If I had to decide on targets I would go for max destruction in terms of lives. In the initial impact and in the long term. So the biggest cities, nuclear power plants, water supply, food production.

As said when usi g this option I don't expect my people to survive as well.

EV is expensive bits issued by a trusted third party.

Cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, is expensive bits issued by a non-trusted third party.

I don’t see how you can be bullish on the first without being bullish on the second, yet I can see how being bullish on the second can mean bearish on the first. Solutions involving no TTP are better than solutions involving TTP.

I like PHB and he has done great things in the field of cryptography. His belief in centralization of public key systems for security runs counter to the cypherpunks who want to decentralize everything despite the costs.
...which is where I fail to understand why people compare the moral panics of the "left" to these quasi-conspiracy events among right-leaning and evangelical types. the difference is huge when you compare the actions taken in the interest of their fabricated causes.
> It is very much possible that they are "going easy" on Ukraine.

They have been (I mean, aside from the deliberate atrocities) but not, I think, intentionally. Ironically, I think it is because Putin’s claims of closeness of the Russian and Ukrainian people aren't wrong, and the Russian conscripts largely shoved into this war don't really have any desire to kill Ukrainian’s for Putin’s murky purposes.

That's why they begged Kazakhstan for troops, why they sent Chechen kill squads after Zelenskyy, why they are now recruiting in Syria, etc. The material condition of the Russian Army isn't great, but the human component doesn't seem particularly enthusiastic about the war, either.

"Getting rid of ties" is very different from declaring a witch hunt on anything concerning Russian culture. Surely we should also stop using any technology Russian inventors invented or helped invent? Should chemists look for a replacement of the Periodic Table?
Yes. I think the conclusion is that you would do well to use both Yandex and a typical western one for anything political.
I think the validity is mostly scoped the current major world-wide events. It would be interesting to have some sort of topic censorship ranking website; give it a topic, and it ranks various search engines.

The US defense establishment believes the literal nuclear bombing of cities is an unlikely strategy. Russian first-strike strategy involves the usage of nuclear weapons for their Electromagnetic Pulse generating effects. The ability to destroy electricity delivery, generation, and electronic devices is just as likely to destroy or render ineffective an adversary's ability to respond as outright nuclear holocaust.

This document mentions that the use of high-voltage EMP bursts renders our nuclear arsenal vulnerable- those in silos, those in planes, and those in submarines if they are not sufficiently hardened against these attacks.
You could, but you'd have two devices reporting different values for the same address and the devices reading that value wouldn't know what to do.
We’ve been vilifying oil companies with the moral high ground for 50 years.

Rather than calling them evil, it’s time to recognize how important and valuable fossil fuels are, and promote good stewardship (including promoting alternatives and reducing consumption).

Having recently worked on a data team at FAANG, all this is an ops nightmare for the team running the platform itself if you want to ensure data quality for everyone querying the data. Im talking when you have hundreds of data sources and hundreds of query use cases.

Are the SARS-CoV-2 post infection / long Covid symptoms unique to SARS-CoV-2 because I feel like there must be some overlap with other previous viruses that have similar effects on humans long after the initial recovery. The well known ones I believe are Post-Polio, Guillain-Barré and more historically more controversial - Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
Because I looked it up, you are correct: 50Mt total yield (across all the MIRVs), which is indeed the same as the Tsar, with benefit of carpeting an area rather than a single big ka-boom.

It was supposed to be test launched (hopefully not with real warheads!) in 2022. So it's unlikely it will matter if there's nuclear war this year.

I'm really not sure this gives Russia any advantage over the US though, or over what it's replacing. There's already enough nukes to obliterate both sides, no? Just launch more of the existing ones.
Another question is - can the limiter be removed and the vehicle reclassified (without paying the tax) once imported?

Because paying a mechanic + some paper pushers a few k (at most) at either end is cheaper than 120k in tax...
I started doing exactly this at the start of the year.

I'm now working 25% less than my full-time colleagues over 4 days (ie: I work one less day a week, and a slightly shorter work day). I absolutely love it and would never go back.

Of course it helps that I'm lucky enough to be in an industry where a 25% reduction in salary is still more than enough to be able to pay the mortgage and support my family.

I'm actually hoping to ultimately go down to three days a week, just need to make sure it will still work financially.
Most "handheld tuners" can adjust the speed limiter without issue. Newer Dodge products need a PCM reflash in order to use the handheld tuner. Some tuning shops can do this on site, but I think a Finnish person would need to ship their PCM to the USA for a reflash, or buy a second flashed unit.

Being a Hennessey product, this probably comes with a flashed PCM and the handheld tuner for it. I wouldn't be surprised if the manual came with a section stating something like, "this setting right here will adjust the speed limiter on your vehicle. It would be VERY ILLEGAL to use this feature to CHANGE THE TOP SPEED LIMITER to beyond 55MPH. Please don't use this feature if you're in the EU."
I always thought it was an American whisk(e)y company, but it seems to be a tuning company that works on American cars.
> The weight and speed have external impacts on road durability as well as air quality. Compare the amount of carbon dioxide released by a truck of that size and most other residential polluting machines and it doesn't come close.

Correlation, causation regarding weight/size of vehicle and external impact. Its actually quite simple to objectively determine that sort of impact on a vehicle by vehicle basis, all of this is known. No reason to anchor it to the weight of a vehicle.

Again, the tax aspect ("fraud") is NOT being pushed by a potential purchaser. the laws FORCE it to be a vehicle that is tax exempt (according to the article).
I look at a bunch of company dev blogs for my side project[0].

IMO don't use Medium as its tough for content exploration as a user.

I think the best option is to setup a static site generator using whatever tool works for you - ideally a tool that allows your users to search for blog posts, and filter posts by tags.

I would probably start with Wordpress to quickly get started, and explore other options as needs arise.

Not sure what you mean by this. There's not a current, similar situation in the US where the average US citizen feels like they were recently displaced/oppressed/etc by occupiers. That's been the situation in the past with Native Americans, slave populations, the American revolution, etc. I suspect the numbers met that threshold then.
It does matter. See things like Operation Choke Point and how much easier that becomes with federal centralization.
I think you're making a mistake, here, by looking at this through a partisan lens (which, unfortunately, seems to be the default way of seeing the world for a lot of folks these days; one need only look at some of the other low quality replies to your question to see that in action).

The Satanic Panic, for example, was not, as far as I'm aware, a partisan conspiracy theory. Unlike QAnon, which is clearly aligned with the far right, the Satanic Panic was very widely reported in media and believed by the public and law enforcement.

The same is true of many other urban legends that lead to moral panics (e.g. "rainbow parties").

Some of the specifics, sure, but the premise is still sound: Teach C++ as Standard C++, not C in disguise, or C(++). It would certainly have cleaned up a lot of my former colleagues' code if that had been the case for them (to their credit, many of them also inherited the C(++) code and didn't just make from-scratch C(++) code, but they also didn't take too much time to fix it).
I wonder if you could also use en_GB with the same effect (though if your hack is working it's probably not worth changing).

I think one is that a lot of left-wingers imagine that the majority of police are also members of explicitly fascist/racist organizations. A significant minority are, but lefties imagine that they basically all are. For most cops, the police unions are enough, and minority cops are usually even at odds with those.
With all this blocking of state-funded media channels, they should block CBC in Canada. I can't speak to a lot of other media outlets, but if we're okay with big tech just blocking anything willy nilly, they should at least do it consistently across the board.

It's an import tax, so removing it after the fact may be a legal loophole.

Some US companies were doing that by e.g. adding pointless seats. One that ripped the seats back out after import got fined (many, many years later), another one was leaving the (barely usable) seats in for the owners to rip out and IIRC got away with it.

I would love if this was designed to take into account elevation data so you could figure out what areas would be shadowed by natural structures like hills.

For example, I'm in Seattle, but on the East side and I expect to be fully shielded from a surface detonation in downtown and to be mostly shielded from air detonation depending on the altitude.

Speaking of air detonations, what altitudes are most nuclear missiles designed to detonate at?
