Obligatory reminder that at least part of the reason fusion is proverbially "always 30 years away" is because we are still funding fusion research below the "fusion never" level, as we have been since the mid-1980s (before, we were funding it at the "fusion never" level) [0].

Based on the estimates given in 1976 on the linked graph, if we were to dedicate roughly $10B/yr to funding fusion—a tiny fraction of, say, the US military budget—it is likely we would have something at least close to a practical application within no more than about 20 years.

GWB's great sin is he gave China, and Russia time.

The 15 years USA spent running after imaginary boogeymen sowed the seeds of what we are dealing with today.

There are many aspects to this folly, but most bad were:

1. Okaying what Russia, and China were doing

2. Wasting trillions on completely pointless war

3. Squandered overnight the enormous goodwill USA carried from successful 199X

4. Stalled the wheel of democratisation around the world

> Except us techies, who didn't believe Apple's claims in the first place.

That's very debatable. Even individuals on HN (which is rare atmosphere) defended Apple's claims.

The other side of this is that people have been exclusively using Apple products for so long, that they don't have the experience to compare what Apple is doing with the rest of the industry. Apple only has to outdo themselves.
For our company squash merge simplifies cognitive load when a bad commit is deployed to production. There’s exactly one commit that caused the issue and one commit to be reverted.

The mere fact that Apple's claims to challenge NVidia's best weren't dismissed with a laughable graph, and instead were concluded to be "well, a bit of a marketing stretch, but not a bad attempt Apple"...

When Intel has been failing at discrete graphics competition with ATI/NVidia for... two decades? Yet Apple cranks out a functional competitor a year after their first desktop chip. Yes they probably have lots of experience with integrated graphics on SOC for the iPhones so this isn't totally out of the blue. But still.

What has Intel been doing all these years? Is it THAT dysfunctional? Add to the failures of VLIW/Itanium, loss of the SSD crown, underwhelming XPoint, no ARM competitors, no real position in mobile, twice getting passed up by AMD in the performance race, a company with 1/10th, possibly 1/100th the resources.
> Both the earphones and chargers retail for $19 USD each and since these items are usually cheaper to produce, Apple is saving approximately $35 USD per device.

I find the wording in this sentence confusing. Is this saying Apple's cost to produce one pair of headphones and one charger is $35?

That seems on the high side. I would assume Apple's markup on an item they sell for $19 to be much higher.
Do you read code while sitting on your hands? Or do you perhaps print out code before reading it?

A savings rates (of a person's income) of 15% is higher than a savings rate of 5% is higher than a savings rate of 0%. Some of those savings goes to building an emergency fund (which eventually tops out), while other savings goes into a retirement account to generate for future income; some may go into a child's education fund.

Eventually most people will retire and draw down their savings. Eventually one's child will grow old and go to some kind of post-secondary school and need money for tuition, books, etc.

As someone who's done webdev for a living since 1998, I share the OP's distaste for w3schools -- they truly earned their notoriety as a low-quality, spammy, SEO-hacking parasite. It was so bad it inspired a large group of some of the biggest names in the field to push back with a site called "w3fools" that tried to set the record straight and steer the hapless masses away from w3schools. See eg https://web.archive.org/web/20110412103745/http://w3fools.co...

Unfortunately, it seems w3schools has since managed to acquire the w3fools domain, and (facepalm, what the actual f**) have appropriated the original content to make it appear as if those famous anti-w3schools signatories have all changed their minds and now endorse w3schools (!) -- which might actually be libel? and is just another scandalous example of the shadiness at play.

A leopard doesn't change its spots. w3schools sucks. Steer clear!

I agree. M1 with Metal is already quite good. Just leave it at that. You're not going to be able to compete with a high-end discrete GPU in most areas, so stop pretending.
I don't think that's much different than today. There's tons of money tied up in intangible things, or speculative stuff above it's true value. If everyone tried to buy tangible things, then inflation would happen. Too much money + plus not enough things = price increase to take advantage of that money until there's no excess.
Yes and no. You're definitely less exposed to JS ecosystem, but it's often the same issue with available examples, code snippets, docs.

I've similarly bad experience with for eg. plugins for VS Code. I wanted to add more supported syntax to org-mode plug in, at which point I found that their test suite is messed up.

Of course none of this is inherently fault of JS as a language, but current development culture around it promotes use of lots of silver tape, which makes me nervous, when I have to use anything JS-based.

I've found english wikipedia to be quite reliable actually, especially for scientific knowledge. It's an excellent source of references too.

It's quite literally saved me in school too. Once I had to present my work in class and my classmates wrote a few things in the slides they didn't fully understand. Of course my PhD professor zeroed in on that. She was asking them question after question and nobody was answering. She asked me and I answered correctly because I had spent days reading about bacterial gene transfer on wikipedia out of curiosity.

I actually hated that subject until I discovered how awesome it is thanks to wikipedia. She would make us memorize seemingly endless factoids about all kinds of micro-organisms. I hated every second of it and nearly failed that class. Then I started reading about this stuff on wikipedia and everything changed.

I think it’s too soon to make an assessment. Trump spent his whole presidency casting aspersions on NATO, and tried to cut defense aid to Ukraine. If this situation escalates further, he may be viewed as a James Buchanan figure.

And I do think things may get worse. Currently a sovereign country is being invaded and civilians are being targeted. The second order effects might be even worse

* If Russia pulls resources from Syria then the civil war might come to a head. The regime leans heavily on Russian air support

* Russian paramilitary provides defense for unpopular governments like Tanzania’s. If they got pulled these countries might go into civil war

* Ukraine and Russia are two of the worlds largest exporters of grain. Countries like Egypt are big importers (Egypt actually subsidizes the purchases heavily). If grain costs go up (and other commodities like oil) this could cause unrest

* Nuclear war

* Cyber war targeting key infrastructure. The possibility of massive collateral damage is high (see Not Petya)

Some of these things are not intrinsically bad (I have no love for despotic governments for example) but the potential sum total of events could throw the world into chaos.

The War on Terror was a massive mistake. America needs to keep the crazy evangelicals who want to bring on the end times by attacking the Middle East far from the oval office. But taking on an isolationist position in response to the 2000’s would be a massive mistake. It’s clearer than ever that power vacuums have to be filled

At that point in time most chargers were proprietary though. These days, you’ll be hard-pressed to find an AC adapter for a phone that doesn’t just have either a USB-A or USB-C port, and the cable you’ll need is almost certainly the same one that you used for your last phone. Neither were typically the case pre-smartphone.
> Because there is the same amount of money bidding on fewer things.

But the reason there are fewer things is because producers are responding to less demand for things. It's not like a recession just knocks out production leaving demand untouched, causing the price to move along the demand/supply curve. You won't have the same amount of money as before being bid on the fewer things.

Ah look not sure if you've been following the detail but with a lack of supply of wheat, fertiliser, oil and gas this contributes massively to risk of food shortages.

You personally may not have been buying product from Russia or Ukraine but others will have been. They now have to look for replacement options creating market pressure.

Wheat and crops sourced from other countries still have to be harvested, so the oil prices going up (even if that was a single factor) can risk reduction in harvest and crop yields.

Oil supply is just one of the issues right now. Once you add fertiliser, crops, not to mention unpredicted or unreported factors, this is going to get painful for some.

It looks like The Verge (the source) have corrected it since, though the decision not to test the 3090 at 4k seems... weird to me: https://i.imgur.com/P2motB1.png

Also they just handwave "2019 Mac Pro" for the comparison, though the 2019 Mac Pro has _5_ GPU options. Going toe to toe with the intel gpu is embarassing, going toe to toe with the W6800 is quite good. Though I suspect since they've had the device for two years it's the W5700 model, but would be good to have the specified.
Why is an alternative to vaccination a bad thing exactly? I'm vaccinated and I'm certainly not against vaccines per se, but when they're talking about 4th booster shot then to me it only indicates that maybe vaccines wasn't the right way to treat this pandemic.

Almost make me feel like they're scared of someone finding a better way out of this.
> First, if it doesn't work, just say that. "It doesn't work". "Ivermectin is not an effective treatment for Covid". That's all that was really necessary, right?

Apparently not. Because that is what was said at first. And doctors refused to prescribe it because it didn't work, there was no reason for it to work, etc.

So people went down to Sneed's Feed and Seed, bought the apple-flavored paste with a picture of a horse on it and started shitting themselves in the middle of WalMart. They deserved to be mocked.
I still prefer the w3schools version, I feel like it is better because it is concise and get straight to the point without a ton of blah blah, if I want an encyclopedic type of reference (which is rare) I go to mdn, but most of the times I just need quick reference that gets to the point immediately. Also I forget the internet has ads, don't you have ublock origin installed?

Yes, they were totally reasonable sentences to throw at you because you want something to fail because of your subjective opinion disregarding if anyone else might find that something useful, it seems a bit solipsistic.

You're doing it right, opposing bad information with good. All of what you say here makes sense, including "This is why you shouldn't get your medical advice from Joe Rogan." Where that breaks down is when that turns into, "This is why you shouldn't be allowed to get your medical advice from Joe Rogan."

People make unwise choices all the time, and when we try to prevent them from doing so coercively, we fall into a pit of unintended consequences. When people see powerful people suppressing a point of view, it makes it more sympathetic to many of them, even if they would otherwise have rejected it as unreasoned.

"Milking their Monopoly"

The AMD lawsuit with Intel back in the Netburst days showed how Intel was just as bad if not worse than Microsoft at anticompetitive behavior to lock out competitors in the PC market. I'll throw Intel a bone in that for decades with this monopoly power they still continued to push the process and design envelope (probably because they were afraid of becoming Motorola, and when they still had engineering leadership left over from the earlier days).

But Intel is a badly overfed Jabba the Hut. Gelsinger has his work cut out for him.

I remember when I was younger, having gone through a few 'gaming' keyboards that were just standard rubber-dome type with extra lights, 'missing' some keystrokes because the dome had been worn out. Most notable, having to rock my finger certain ways while using W in videogames. I'd have to use a somewhat aggressive amount of force to reliably actuate it.

The first mechanical keyboard I got wowed me with how smooth and consistent the switches felt, compared to what I was used to. They were linears (Cherry MX Reds, on a Corsair k95, which was technically a hybrid board that still had some rubber domes), but the consistency alone was a godsend. I still had heavy hands, but have since eased up a bit.

I no longer tolerate a mushy keyboard that behaves inconsistently. I used to bring a keyboard to and from the office every day, just to avoid dealing with the standard $15 cheapo that is usually offered at the office.

I believe that you're misinterpreting the point. It's not dismissing the mainstream because it's mainstream, but ignoring the mainstream that completely dismisses and mislabels contradicting views and evidence as "misinformation." Relying solely on the judgement of mainstream media is putting all your faith in science not in science itself but on reporters(and activists) choosing what is "science."

This recent trend of treating science as an unquestionable reminds me much more of religion than of science. At this point in the covid game where quite a bit of the accepted science has changed, it seems that only people's egos are keeping them from seeing this.
