One of the first steps towards what could be an eventual civil war and Putin ending up like Ceaucescu or Mussolini, if things go very badly for them in Ukraine and economically.
"perils" is just a tad dramatic here. And while there are many advantages to induction over gas (the faster boiling times have me sold alone), there are some disadvantages in my opinion to placing even more reliance on a electrical grid that we learn each day is more fragile than we once thought.
Opinions like yours always baffled me. You probably think that taking away McDonald's from an average Russian is somehow unfair and accomplishes nothing, right?

The whole point of this huge exercise in global isolation of an aggressor country is to change that whole country's behaviour and deter others from doing the same. And before you say it's Putin - no, it's not. It's him and the millions who wholeheartedly support him.

Since we can't invade Russia to stop the aggression this is the next best thing we got.

I can't put it in words any simpler than this.
I fitted an AEG induction hob in our kitchen about 3 years ago. It is absolutely amazing. It's so controllable - you can go from "barely hot enough to melt chocolate" to "so hot your pans start discolouring and everything burns" - and back again - in seconds (and everything in-between obviously).

I always thought gas was the best for cooking. But I was wrong - induction is. Gas is great for medium-high power cooking, but it falls apart for lower temps, and it's very hard to get it consistent. The only time I really miss gas is when stir frying - you can't really use woks on induction.

It's also wipe clean!
Trying to step close enough to the line to make it questionable is part of the fun. Poe's law etc. I suppose on a large forum there will always be someone that misses it, purely stochastically. Happened to me recently too https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30614766#30618068
Let me FTFY

Amazon are 'obsessed' with (their milking of) the customer (and anyone else they can).
What rhetoric ? Nuclear is objectively far more expensive than renewables.

That's the reason it has struggled for traction.
I can't say enough good things about my induction cooktop. It's as responsive as gas, but puts out more power than a home gas stove. Plus, it's incredibly easy to clean. Love it.
My view is that apis should simply return a number when an error occurs. The vendor should supply a list of error codes to its consumers, translated into as many languages as necessary. The developers who are consuming the api can then determine how best to present the error to its end users. A set of error numbers is tied to the version of the api that is being consumed so there should be no surprises.
The ROMs on NICs had huge attack surfaces, as each rom had to implement enough network stack from scratch. Not to mention how buggy they were.

There's a very good reason why iPXE is so often used for chainloading and why it has support for directly replacing the option rom of the card.

>With the old Bolsheviks,... you tend to get the feeling of ruthless, dedicated, but ultimately idealistic people. Pretending that they were always just an evil clique...

Idealistic is not an antonym to evil. Ruthless and idealistic is a very good way to justify evil to oneself.

I do agree evil clique is not the right way to consider the start of the revolution. The USSR was poisoned from the start by the Bolshevik contempt to democracy and anything that was standing in the way of their ideals. They had to experiment on their society no matter how many people died.

Eventually after a long paroxysm of violence it morphed to a clique, which was actually less evil than what preceded it despite being less idealistic.
This - hammering someone's code review with tens of comments can put people on the back foot. Part of any good senior and higher engineers responsibilities is to lift the people around them up.
I think this audience is there but they are watching these films on Netflix. I observed this phenomenon from 2019 to today when I got a monthly AMC movie pass that allows me to watch any three movies a week every week. What I observed even pre pandemic is that any film that is not a major established blockbuster (Superhero films, James bond, etc.) has little to no people coming out to see them. I further tried to understand this trend by writing a data collecting tool that leverages AMC's API to better understand who is coming out. It showed me that there are tons of empty screens for many smaller films going on. Finally to help control to see if this is a AMC thing, I also signed up for Cinemark(a competitor) and observed basically the same results.

It sucks because this harms directors I actually want to see succeed like Edgar Wright. Edgar is a big proponent of watching movies on the big screen so he designs his films to be primarily viewed on cinema screens and pushes for the longest release window he can get. Unfortunately, outside the cities, I observed little uptake for his latest film. :/
I do think I could use an upgrade though, my induction hub just clicks on and off PWM style. Not great for a steady heat.

Having read this article I noticed that they aren't all like this.
Forests are a hassle to work in, and add a lot of extra costs. It’s often cheaper and better in many ways to clear the land first if you’re going to do wind there.

1) wind moves faster/freer the higher you are above the ground. the height of the trees moves the ‘ground’ up, without actually moving it up from a foundation or structure perspective. So you spend the money for a 300 ft tower, but only get 200ft of usable height. Not fun.

2) trees grow into things, fall on things, burn at inconvenient times, and are generally a maintenance headache.

3) many types of trees are very, very strong and require
expensive heavy equipment to clear at large scales, especially if you need to remove a lot of stumps. So it adds extra cost above some already significant costs of land.

If you already have some cleared land somewhere, assuming all other factors are equal, it will definitely be preferred.
Not clear if the meaning here is coding standards as in how you name things, spaces vs. tabs, comments etc. or something else about the code. Coding standards (the style aspects) should just be solved by tooling, you don't let anyone merge code that's not to standard by having a tool verify that.
I would have liked an example of an attack this is supposed to stop.

I assume. something like this, but the article really isn't clear about that:
You're using a CDN which got compromised, but your CICD servers haven't and your DNS provider also hasn't been compromise. Therefore by looking at some DNS records the browser cam verify stuff that's loaded within your domain from a 3rd party CDN.
Or maybe, your TLS certs were hacked, but not the ones from the Cloudflare hash registry.

TBH those don't really seem like common attack vectors. If you're a state level actor and can fake TLS, the later example doesn't work and if your CDN gets hacked, chances are high this vendor is also your DNS and CI/CD provider...

What am I missing here?

I switched from gas to induction during a kitchen remodel about 18 months ago. Took a couple of days to get used to, but it is considerably better than gas. Zero regrets. Faster, more precise, holds temperature better. E.g., I fry an egg on 6. Every time, I can reproduce my ideal fried egg (unless I break the yolk).

When I was shopping for appliances about half of the salespeople tried to talk me into gas, but a few loved induction and boosted my confidence to take the plunge.

Look at consumer reports ratings for induction cooktops, they universally score 98+ points. The best gas cooktops top out below the worst induction cooktops.

No regrets.
But there’s a reason for the generalization. Some parents are inadequate and abusive, but virtually every kid is an impulsive and short-sighted creature whose brain isn’t fully developed until their mid 20s.
> It is also completely their choice to drive at the time when people are leaving bars.

I browse a lot of driver subreddits (r/uberdrivers, r/doordash, r/doordash_drivers, etc) and it's surprisingly common to see people complain about things like this. Imo this is extra weird when you consider this is a major selling point of these apps - "You can work your own schedule and you won't have a boss to worry about" is part of the allure and is often even how the apps are advertised. I would be interested to know why this is such a common theme but people don't usually comment on the why on reddit
It contains links to the research.
It fits the fictional subjects the fictional characters are taught, sure.

But that doesn't make Harry Potter occult literature!

If it did, so are Superman comics. And the X-Files. And James Bond.

Fictional stories about occult figures are at least two steps removed from occult literature. One, they are written about other people studying such material, two they are explicitly fictional. (Three, perhaps, so are the people doing the studying.)

There is actual, primary source occult material out there; confusing this with Harry Potter is precisely what the looney fringes want.

When I say that my family friend thought Harry Potter had occult elements, I do not mean that she thought the content of the stories was about the occult. Of course they are.

I mean that she believed the stories themselves to be as dangerous as primary source occult material: that fiction about the occult is at some level interchangeable with the occult; that it's a primer on the occult.

Which is why the Lewis comparison wasn't well-received. Because it punctures the notion that making up stories about witches invites Satan in.

I just removed the stupid efficiency comment. Not worth the agita, and I'm probably mistaken.
I agree .NET is fantastic technology. I think a lot of the hesitancy in adopting it is from the historical churn described in the article. It’s normal for languages/runtimes to have churn in their features, performance, and library. .NET has that in spades, plus continual churn in its very reason for existence. The corporate and cultural forces behind .NET may be aligned with your situation right now, but five years from now, who knows? There’s not yet historical evidence that it will remain stable.
Purple dye in the day was made from hundreds of ground up snails. And the color was, as I understood it, an official representation of the emperor. So akin to falsely representing oneself as the emperor.

The other options for carbon neutral energy that does not rely on using fossil fuel as part of the energy strategy are few and far between. The few suggested solutions tend to rely on battery solutions for wind power (at least for countries this far up north).

It would be great to see an attempt to such battery solution that would cover the same amount of capacity as this plant, that can operate for at least several months without recharging, in Finish winter, and cost less than this plant and be built faster. That would check all the boxes, and if such technology already exist, people here should really put their investment money into it.
This opinion seems uninformed about a great body of research that has been done around standards-based grading. Stanford has led a lot of this and a family member of mine has collaborated with them on successful field studies in school districts. The result has been increased comprehension, better test scores, and especially improved performance for disadvantaged groups.

By removing grades on homework, and making it so that what is being evaluated is not collection of points, but rather ability to demonstrate the skill against a rubric while retesting, it allows learning closer to the actual target skill. It also more closely mirrors an actual career: if you are running a project at a company and do not hit your quarterly goal, then you don’t just say “Oh well, guess I got a F” and move on to phase 2 of the plan. You revise and try phase 1 again until you reach the objective.

It should be noted that switching from normal grading styles to standards-based grading is not trivial. In school districts there are in fact entire training programs and coaches like my family member that help teachers, administrators, and parents understand the concept and put it into practice. There are not only practical obstacles, but also paradigm shifts that have to slowly happen. But the results are worth it, it is overwhelmingly more effective.

Also, the Bechdel Test is incredibly misleading and distracts from the actual problem IMO, which is simple underrepresentation of women in movies. If only 20% of movie characters are women, probably 4% of dialogue (20% of 20%) would end up being women talking to each other. Solve representation, not content.
the negative side is that's two fewer people who can easily do a coup right this instant.

Low Cyclomatic Complexity is absolutely the result of careful management of interfaces in the system. The inverse is also true that high CC is a sign of poorly structure code, which tends towards spaghetti. Thus I agree it's related to the premise of detecting spaghetti code.

There's nice CC visualizers that can show you at a glance areas that have higher complexity. Sometimes that complexity is related to the problem domain, but sometimes it comes from overhead of poor system architecture.
I agree a lot of this depends on the environment. Are you asking people to work on things they enjoy working on? What's the team like? What's the culture like?

"Smart" is maybe something that can be measured in a vacuum (though in practice it means more than just IQ) but most of the other parameters are very much influenced by the company, team, managers. I totally agree that people can become unpleasant if they're in a bad environment or pushed in certain ways. I've worked with some people that I thought were total jerks and we eventually became great friends, often the friction at work is about something stupid/situational + the general social awkwardness of many software people.
You are making very sweeping claims with next to no evidence (ironically, a very un-wise thing to do!).

I thought induction was the most efficient cooking method, since no wasted energy goes into heating the air around the pan.
I recently got one, and there is a major drawback: there is a coil whine that drives my tinnitis absolutely bonkers.

Yep. Sounds like most of the investors have spent the cost of a mid range Caribbean holiday for a permanent spot to pitch a tent or build a hut alongside other people that think it's a fun idea. If you see it in that context rather than as an investment, its quite good fun.
Amazing to me that cryptocurrency isn't even mentioned on this page of comments, even though it is the type of technology required to replace banks, which everyone agrees are horrible.
I haven't heard of this book, is it actually about designing cities? I'm probably way off but all I can't think of is that once we started designing cities we built crap. Take the UK for example all its beautiful amazing places were built before we had planning offices. They seem to just have evolved.
German here. So few people here have induction because people still think that most pans couldn't be used. But I love it!

But also few here use gas. It's mostly ceramic hobs
Alternatives like coal give off substantially more radioactivity into the environment than a nuclear plant does under normal operations.

It's IMO an often overlooked reason to combine nuclear with renewables, and instead of looking at scaling down energy usage to match renewables' intermittent nature, design for overproduction and push it into easy to switch on electrolysers to provide green hydrogen feedstock for steel production, fuels for systems that can't depend on batteries, even CO2-neutral syntin for aviation and space where batteries don't have the density or just don't work.

Hi. I’m newbie789 and I just noticed that all of my posts for over a week have been hidden from public view. I haven’t received any warnings from the mods, the only time any post of mine have been flagged they’ve been rightfully vouched for, and I’ve accumulated over 1100 karma points.

Is this at the request of a particular poster or group of posters? I have a habit of calling out silly low-effort self-indulgent blog posts (which I find to be a common waste of first page real estate.) Did I offend the Blog Gods?

Just because hurricanes don't typically hit an area doesn't mean they won't (especially as climate change shifts global weather patterns). I was in northern Costa Rica when hurricane Otto hit the Nicaragua / Costa Rica border. This was the first hurricane we have a record of hitting Costa Rica.
Not just the grid but the fickle nature of power electronics.

Our induction cooktop fried its driver circuitry last year and we were stuck cooking off a camp stove for weeks while waiting for a part from Germany. Old school cooking methods are less high tech and more repairable.
No the arguments are still the same.

We have to build lots of bigger, standardised reactors which will then reduce the cost due to experience and economies of scale. But then of course someone has to subsidise the tens/hundreds of billions in upfront investment to get to that point.

Where as with renewables this was all done decades ago. And we are now at the point where it is orders of magnitude cheaper than nuclear. And getting cheaper by the day.
Yes, after two years we can take our relationship off UpWork.
