Roughly 200GW installed this year. 400GW, 800GW, 1.6TW, 3.2, 6.4, 12.8, 25.6, 51.2

We are only 8 doublings away from 51.2TW/year.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Experience_curve_effects#Wri...

With a 10% cost reduction after each doubling, price per TW should be (0.9)^6 = 43% of today.

Sounds encouraging to me.

If a doubling happens every 2 years, then by 2038, we will be installing 51.2TW/year.

Maybe too late to stop global warming?

The short answer is: No, in a command economy, what happens is whatever the politicos demand.
I noticed that they mentioned that Caesar's health may have been declining at this point. It should be noted that Ceasar was planning an invasion of the Dacians and the Parthian Empire at the time of his death. Hence the reason to assassinate him before he left Rome. Fairly remarkable for a man of his age to be leading such a long military campaign.
Coincidentally, I have a friend who is in the second cycle of this IVF procedure to select an embryo that does not carry the genes associated with polycystic kidney disease (PKD). When I heard it last week for the first time, I thought it is already an established procedure. Here, I'm learning that it is a relatively cutting-edge approach and I am now looking forward to asking my friend more about this next time we meet.
I think if your CSS comes after theirs in the DOM yours will take priority.
the commitQ entries are smart enough to 'see' the commits into the architectural file and request the data from it's current location

It does mean lots of register read ports .... but you can duplicate register files at some point (reducing read ports but keeping the write ports) (you want to keep them close to the ALUs/multipliers/etc) - in some ways these are more implementation issues rather than 'architectural'
Having spent my final year of university in a single-glazed private hall of residence on the top of a Welsh hill overlooking the Irish Sea, the lack of insulation (due in part to it being single glazed) was much much worse than if it had been bricked up and I’d been limited to artificial light.

Yes, I would’ve missed some spectacular murmurations and a fireworks show in the valley, but it was really cold and the heating wasn’t enough to overcome that.

Is there public data about how big the network would need to be if 90-100% of long distance travel is switched from 5 min gas station stops to super charging; both in terms of throughput and latency? And/or studies of (probably rare) mass transit events that may or may not be expected; thinking natural disasters and large events away from population centers like burning man or Coachella.
A good economy is producing goods and services are a lower costs and better quality. USD losing and losing value doesn't produce anything.
>I'm not sure what "punishment" is supposed to do here. I'm skeptical that there's a significant cohort who have the means to pay their electric bill, but are holding out anyway.

The punishment here is for the 95% (or whatever) of people who can afford it, to pay up. If not paying your electricity bill is not punishable by anything, I doubt many would bother paying, even if it's within their means. The fact that there isn't a "significant cohort who have the means to pay their electric bill, but are holding out anyway" is precisely because the threat of punishment is enough into get them to pay. I can't imagine the opposite to be true (ie. the electricity company operates on a "suggested donation" model and most people paying what they're asked to pay).

>I think it's way more likely that these are families who've fallen on hard times, and these "punishments" are making their lives even more difficult.

Right, the threat of electricity getting cut off/limited is enough that people would rather pay the bill than to hold out and save $50/month or whatever in their bank account. I agree it's a tragedy that "families who've fallen on hard times" are being punished even though they lack the means to pay, but unfortunately it's also non-trivial to discriminate between "people who have the means to pay but don't want to pay" and "people who don't have the means to pay but can't pay". That's also what's preventing a "from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs" economy from working properly, and why we have a market based economy instead.

>You can also see this kind of policy spiraling right? Like it becomes a contest as to who can punish the debtor the most. Will it be the electric company? Public transit? Hospitals? Water/Sewage/Trash? Internet? If a family has $100 and their bills are $200, the entity with the sharpest punishment probably wins?

1. But in this case the policy seems to be specifically designed to be not "sharp"? There's enough electricity to run the furnace. You can't run the stove, but that doesn't really stop you from making a healthy meal with affordable ingredients with a slow cooker.

2. maybe the entity with the sharpest punishment wins, maybe it forces the person to tighten their belts and drop the least essential services

We are arguing if the law should work that way, not if it already does or not.

And personally, I don't think it should. The purpose of copyright law is to make it economically viable to publish creative works. Ashcanning your own work very much goes against the copyright bargain, but we don't have any legal provision to counteract it yet.
I've also lost count of the number of systems/backend guys on this website who hate the frontend world even though they've... Never really done it professionally.

I think because frontend has a reputation for being easier, there's this assumption that if you can do the 'harder' thing, you should be able to pick up JS and CSS pretty easily.

But the truth is, what separates a great frontend engineer from an ok one is mostly knowledge of the history and the ecosystem. The web is a big stack of compromises. Knowing why things are the way they are is one of the only ways to make sense of the frontend. That and just actually doing it.

> That's 53 years ago. What is your basis for saying "It never ended"?

Are you demanding evidence? I mean, yes, "it never ended" is a bold claim, but we have no evidence that it ended either, so the alternative also would be a bold claim.

Depending on the actual intent of the organizations that did these horrifying things long ago, the fact that they got away with it might mean they never had a reason to stop, or it might mean that they really were doing mostly-low-harm studies to protect us from others' more harmful designs. But we just don't know.

It's not unreasonable to assume that "it never ended" in the absence of evidence to the contrary given that

- it happened at all

and especially if:

- there was no controversy at the time
- no controls were put in place to prevent re-occurrence
- we only found recently
- there was no controversy when we found out recently

Certainly one should wonder. And out of an abundance of caution we should assume that "it never ended".

Evidence that it never happened again, of course, will be hard to come by just on account of negatives being hard to prove... But we could have evidence of controls and audits put in place to prevent these things from happening, so: is there any such evidence?
Is writing a static unit type checker as a plugin a daunting task, then? I’ve never thought of it in detail, but it would seem that unit type checking rules for basic operations like add/subtract and multiply/divide would be straightforward, and everything else could be derived from there.

You have the charging electronics which will tell you very quickly when a battery is dead, and you know which subscriber gave you the faulty battery. Sure faulty batteries can happen naturally (and accidentally), two faulty batteries though should be statistically enough to trigger an investigation from the company.

In the US our lawmakers just do what they're being paid for. They're paid by the media cartel to improve that industry's profits and protect their ability to act as gatekeepers controlling what we're allowed to see or hear.

Our rights, freedoms, and desires don't matter to lawmakers. Only corporations and a very small number of extremely wealthy individuals have representation in government.

>At the current rate, we will have an entire generation of renters unless they inherit property.

This is already the case in some European countries like Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Buying without inheritance is nearly unaffordable already for most people.

I went, for shits and giggles, to a house viewing hosted by a realtor, to see who can afford so many 600k - 1MM houses when the average national income is around 1800 Euros/month NET. I expected it would be full of people who cashed out on crypto at the right time, but it was all 20 somethings with mon and dad who were there to buy their kids a nest.

The middle class who could buy a house while still enjoying luxuries like vacations and a car, from average salaries without inheritance, is dead and buried here.

As a double whammy to millennials and younger who will not own their homes, rents are going up, wages are being eroded by inflation and the retirement age is also going up, and the pensions sums to be received are going down. I just hope I can still afford a noose and a second hand chair on my future pension.

> None of this is well-specified.

I'm not saying doing this would be trivial (and you'll definitely want to engage lawyers to help do it), but if you do take support contracts it will have to be well-specified in the terms of the contract.

So the answer to all those questions is that it'll be whatever you and the contracting party want them to be as part of negotiating the contract. The more they ask in terms of speed, guarantees, availability, they more you'll make them pay for the support. If there are things you don't want to do, make the price so high nobody will pay it (or if they do, then hire out the work since they paid you so much for it).

But if you are talking about faster partial-capacity refills during road trip stops, we already have that.

Current batteries charge way faster from 0-50% than 50-100%. The curve really starts to fall off above 80%.

I usually try to plan my stops so that I’m arriving with 5-10% and charging to 60-65%. With 250kW chargers that results in a ~15min charging stop.

I don’t think the costs of development, impact to vehicle design, and infrastructure would make sense for swaps just to replace what is already a 15min charge.

>Still cheaper to own.

Bay Wheels is $159/year and about $2.00 a ride, meaning you would need to ride 520 times that year before it became cheaper to own. Also for regular bikes it's free each ride.

That's ignoring that decent e-bikes are more expensive than $1200, the stress of having to lug around and securely park your property, the depreciation of the batteries, as well as any insurance & deductible costs you'll encounter for when (not if) it gets stolen.

It's hands down better to be able to hop-on and -off wherever you want with an ebike than to deal with owning one in SF.
Good question about RPS, not really sure. We run the smallest VM resource size and it works fine for what we do. We're going to be leaning into more monitoring this year so we will hopefully have better answers to this questions.

What you're claiming makes it sound like seeking graduate acceptance requires manipulation and only nepotism guarantees acceptance. Other people are not a means to an end but instead the ends themselves. I don't see anything wrong with a friendship with a faculty member, but you make it sound as though the right way to do things is to have an agenda for getting a faculty member's attention so that they might "put in a good word" with their faculty friend at some graduate department to grease the tracks of acceptance.

Certainly, relationships are important, but they're only valuable if they're genuine, a two-way street, and not one-sided. What possible incentive would a faculty member have to invalidly get an undergrad accepted to some grad program? Just because they like them? What do they get out of it? This all brushes very close to psychological egoism and narcissism.

Of the 20M or so undergrads at any one time, what percentage of them are doing graduate level work? Some... I took graduate seminars as an undergrad. It's not all that unusual, but whatever an undergrad does, even at MIT, is for the exercise, the experience of doing it, and not for pushing the state of the art and publishing articles. Even if an undergrad does publish in a journal, it is going to be clear the purpose of the exercise was the experience of doing that work, and not advancing the field. Undergrads think they know everything. Grad students know they know nothing. PhD's know everyone else knows nothing.

If you live in California, property tax is assessed at purchase price + inflation rather than at current market price. Rent control basically extends this same (enormous) benefit to renters. You still miss out on goodies such as being able to transfer the cost basis to your children, but it seems like a minimally invasive way to level the playing field.

Repealing prop 13 is basically impossible because you have to deal with sob stories about seniors getting priced out of their homes. We should double down and enact rent control on the same principle.

The fraction of average income paid to landlords is partially due to the concentration of land ownership and political culture of the ownership class.

Historically in 18th century rents were 1/3 of farm product in England, 1/2 of product in Milan, up to 3/4 product in China. Citizens in countries with low rents developed wealth quicker and in countries with high rents were quite poor.
