That's interesting, so the tank is permanent and you refill it somehow? If yes, how often? Can you do the same thing with natural gas? Does the place you live in have natural gas?

Absolutely. Possession shouldn't be a crime; just the intent to supply. The best way to help addicts is to supply them with safe places to go to administer drugs, and provide registered addicts with safe drugs and support for free. It's expensive, but less expensive than wasting resources treating people that are essentially victims, as criminals.

It's important to note that "the war on drugs" is an American concept; not how things are done in the rest of the world. It's almost like they learned nothing from the prohibition!
Or insurance. If another fukushima strikes it's taxpayers on the hook for the $800 billion cleanup bill.

Makes all the propaganda about how safe it truly is ring a bit hollow when they dont pay for their own damn insurance.
I'm a big fan of Stratechery and the original thought behind most of the posts but I think this one completely misses the mark. Advertising is not a new model in the streaming space - Hulu has done it for years and is one of the things I hate most about it. As most people have said here int he comments - if Netflix adds advertising there would be an uproar.

Here are some ways I think Netflix could make money just off the top of my head,

* Netflix Live - Amazon does this to an extent and there's clearly a demand for live content. This could be sports, or a Twitch competitor or something original (reality tv meets live maybe).

* Pay for different regional content - Every VPN advertises the ability to switch countries to watch Netflix from a different country. I would happily pay more if I got access to the US content in addition to the UK. This is a legal problem more than an engineering problem though.

* Netflix Infra - every company out there seems to be creating a streaming service and frankly most of them are rubbish - they constantly buffer, have terrible apps and casting functionality. Netflix could create a product similar to AWS and rent out their infra. Yes it does cannibalize their own offering/product strengths but thats happening anyway as their competitors get their shit together

* Merchandising - there are a lot of crazy viral hits that Netflix seems to create - Squid Game was one of the most popular Halloween costumes last year. I should be able to order merch right from the app especially for Netflix originals. You only have to look at Disney to see the possibilities here.

Cool idea. I could imagine a version of this being used by whistleblower to get data out of a company. Maybe a web version and they could capture the data with a voice recording app.
Looks like you read it the way I did originally -- that even a factory reset still leaves the GoGuardian software on the machine.

From the gist of comments of people more familiar with chromebooks than me, it actually looks like the factory reset does completely wipe the machine (as you'd expect from "factory reset") and there's no software installed that survives this process (other than the default chromebook stuff)
If it's anything like the London greenbelt then it's counterproductive. It just pushes the urban sprawl to the far side, and meanwhile housing gets ever more expensive while a bunch of prime land is tied up in barely-used golf courses and parks.

I've moved to Tokyo which takes the opposite approach - indefinite sprawl, barely regulated at first - and the result is actually a city that's much more pleasant and walkable. Small parks mixed among the housing, where they can actually be used, are much better than a big ring of parkland that only the rich can even take the time to visit.
I assume your live subscribers are external people over the internet?

The trading platforms I've worked on tend to order things into a single stream that you can act upon. This helps with testing, race conditions, auditability. You will want to be able to replay an exact series of events to recreate conditions.

LMAX Disruptor[1] and Aeron[2] are two open source examples of something widely used, either using the libraries themselves or as concepts.

Some things that trading systems (generally?) need which you may not, which might simplify your architecture:

- Every message must be delivered and in order. UDP is usually used over TCP, as the platform will likely want more control over handling missed messages.
- It will be common to have read/write applications that need to add a message as a response. Writing is difficult as you need to be quick, otherwise a subsequent message from another application might invalidate your message.

Do subscribers need older data? How do dropped packets impact the system? Can they just be forgotten? What latency requirements do you have? Do subscribers also write to the same stream?

Sending in-product feedback certainly could work because it's more likely to be seen by product management as it continues to roll in.

Support-driven product change requests are well intentioned but generally break down as a process internally. The working knowledge base and incentives are not properly aligned.

there's been talk of gazprom being a safe haven for higher placed people running from russia's recently tightened regime. think officials and/or FSB agents, etc. wanting to avoid sanctions by changing ownership structure of gazprom to western shell companies.
Currently it's probably the same stuff as the original McDonalds. Eventually the quality will deteriorate due to lack of supervision - unless Russians will do an equal job in supervising, which I doubt.
And what about Crimea and previous Russian aggression against Ukraine in 2014 when Merkel was in power?

Calling this a “left” thing is really asinine when that’s just who happens to be in power at the time. Do I get to blame terrorism, record debt, and COVID-19 on the U.S. and European “right”?

I’m constantly surprised at the lack of critical reasoning skills when it comes to government or world events. Otherwise intelligent people just absolutely turn off their brain when it comes to this stuff.

You are probably correct that the war would not have happened. Merkel’s Germany would have stood by and refused even more adamantly the right of Ukraine to exist as a sovereign country. Likely it would just be part of Russia now with no war at all. In fact, that’s what Russia counted on while Putin has for years cozied up to Germany and convinced them to strategically rely on Russia to supply them with natural gas, so then they could hang a sword over the head of Germany while they start snapping up the territory and lives of other people.

This is an ancient technique. I used essentially the same process ~30 years ago (1987–95) to publish N-way product comparisons. The approach was old even then (see e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quality_function_deployment).

The promise of this quantifying is that results are more objective and precise, so everyone can come to rational agreement. In practice, it doesn't do that. What attributes are chosen to quantify, how they're scored, how they're weighted—these are all subject to a great deal of fiddling and constant debate. "You over-weighted X!" or "You didn't consider Y!" Et cetera. Truly never-ending, and unless participants already well-aligned, doesn't secure genuine consensus.

Results are also highly perturbable. Tweak the weights and/or scores but a little and they tell an entirely different story. New winners emerge, clear victories become dead heats, and the former Red Lantern Award winner is suddenly in the middle of the pack.
This! The most important thing I'm asking myself: What do I want to achieve? Does "yelling" at people rises my chances in achieving this? Later on, when my immediate goal is achieved, I can decide do I care enough to follow up or not. First things first - sort out your priority.

Lots of reasons. It was at the time the least authoritarian regime. The alternatives are Saudi-Arabia, where as I understand the gas is harvested with the help of human rights violations, and other nearby suppliers like Norway were already and still are at capacity.

At the same time, gas is a relatively enviromentally safe, when compared to others, and since the relations to Russia were mostly friendly, the slight problems in the regime were ignored.

Now germany is reliant on them, and that was a mistake they are realizing. But if germany stops accepting gas today, the germans will freeze in the winter when the gas runs out, so its a complicated situation.
Not without quite a few libraries. You need at least rackjure[1] (for threading macros if nothing else) and data/collections[2] (for unified sequence/collection handling and convenient helpers). You might want data/functional[3] for the `do` notation (to replace all the for/... forms; only if you know what you're doing). You will probably need a few srfis - 26 for cut, for example - depending on your preferred coding style and domain.

You won't need external libraries for streams, generators, objects and classes, contracts, graphics and plotting, documentation generation, concurrency, limited parallelism (futures) and multiprocessing (places) - as these are all built-in.

Racket is a great language. I learned it around 2008 and get back to it regularly. However, due to its focus on pedagogy, the defaults tend to be verbose for practical work. The incredible power of `syntax-parse` makes it trivial to build DSLs, but that backfires, because everyone and their cat make DSLs instead of settling on a single set of helper libraries. Packages that require a lot of effort to make, like a numpy/pandas/data-frame implementation, tend to lag behind their counterparts in other languages due to the relatively small community. Without easy access to larger ecosystem that Clojure enjoys it's pretty much impossible for the situation to drastically improve on that front.

Contracts and Typed Racket are still, to my knowledge, the most advanced in their respective fields.

I love Racket. It's my first Lisp, and it'll have a place in my heart until the day it stops beating. However, for practical, day to day coding, that doesn't fit precisely into Racket strengths, it's not as good as any of the top 10 on TIOBE.

I had fun at the age of probably 12 or 13 figuring out I could create these sorts of stereograms in GFA Basic on my Atari ST.
Of course, Arendt was a journalist so her work starts from an event. Not every Nazi member was trialled, Eichmann wad just one of the high-profile ones. The point is that from the particular situation we get a more generalised theory of the development of "evil" at the mass level, that works better than "people just like to abuse others, because the devil or something".
Good point, coming up with a novel joke is no joke. There's a genuine problem where GPT is to a first approximation going to have seen everything we'll think of to test it, in some form or other.

Of course, if we can't come up with something sufficiently novel to challenge it with, that also says something about the expected difficulty of its deployment. :-P

I guess once we find a more sample-efficient way to train transformers, it'll become easier to create a dataset where some entire genre of joke will be excluded.
But I guess that one aspect of this deglobalization trend is that you won't be able to travel there in the first place until the trend changes.
> People get into game development because they want to have fun programming

Totally agree. I think the only real issue here is expectations. If the project mentioned was crowdfunded specifically and only with the goal to deliver a game, then I think people would be right to be a little bit irked that the developer is instead tinkering with their own programming language rather than the game, after eight full years. However if the project was funded with the understanding that the developer was just going to explore and share the process of game development and everyone is on board with them going off-piste to develop something interesting, then I guess that's fine.

That said, the amount of money in question is $67k spread over 1660 backers (~$40 each) so it's not like this person has grifted millions then done a rug-pull :)

The Soviet Union was a reliable energy supplier to (West) Germany even at the height of the Cold War. Ostpolitik was the dominant mode of thinking across party lines. The West has never had any qualms about buying oil and gas from the worst regimes in the world. This outrage over buying from Russia while turning a blind eye to Arab monarchies seems rather perfomative.
No, but I know a few people that have overdosed and died; but hey I guess it was their fault?
Transformers only work with AC. Isolated DC-DC has also transformers where there is really high frequency AC. DC->AC||AC->DC. It's all hidden and due to high frequency quite small. But still AC.

Re cabling: currently we have 230V at home, going to 24VDC would mean 100x more losses. So I would say I got it correctly when I said going to 24V or 48V needs thicker cables due to increased I. As for your sentence, you don't NEED thinner conductors when voltage goes up but you would be quite wasteful if you didn't.

We are in Germany and switched to a heatpump system 4 years ago through incentives over the "Marktanreizprogramm" we got over 45% of the costs reimbursed. It's not even only on the supply chain crisis it's simply ramping up production and training installers because everyone was totally fine with just doing oil and gas for a long time but now everyone scrambles. Shortsightness not only from the state but everyday people and businesses. Thank god for being Links-Grün versifft.
Head of U.S. Space Force launch operations ‘watching Starship closely’
It was created specifically under Thatcher to serve otherwise under-served audiences, and that inevitably means it's controversial, because if what it showed was not controversial it'd be on one of the channels all those well-served audiences are watching.

It's most reasonably criticised for making too "easy" controversial choices, not really challenging for an audience, not really telling anybody anything they didn't know, just going for outrage - something like let's show people having sexual intercourse on TV but with medics explaining what's going on, rather than satire like Brass Eye that demands a bit more of the audience.

So for example Queer As Folk, now considered a pretty tame TV series (and indeed since rebooted for a wider audience) about young gay characters in Manchester was sufficiently controversial when Channel 4 first aired it that right wing newspapers of course insisted it should be banned. Arguably this was "too safe" but on the other hand it's not as though other broadcasters were doing this at the time.

Gas is used primarily by heating or industrial processes that require it. It can't be meaningfully substituted with anything else in the short term.

Netflix in India serves a niche audience. The Indian creators Netflix has brought on board so far mostly produce what's best described as prestige TV. While I've enjoyed some of these shows, they barely have a market outside of the major cities.

Netflix in India is the best example of an American company attempting to grow in India and failing because they don't have any understanding of the culture. Google, Apple, and even IKEA have figured this out. I'm sure Netflix will, too. But it'll take them a bit of time.
I experienced scenario #2 on my son's Chromebook during pandemic school closings. One day he logged in with his school account and about half the apps were disabled, including core stuff he needed to do school work. I got the "we can't control your computer, that's not how computers work" speech from the school. It was one of the most frustrating things I've ever experienced. The policies finally got fixed a few days later, but I'm pretty sure the people I talked to thought I was crazy.
Ukraine wasn’t armed with hi-tech weaponry until Russia started invading in 2014 and then continued being a bad actor which culminated in January/February 2022 delivery of said weapons at the last second.

NATO expansion is a convenient excuse but fails for two reasons:

1. Baltics are closer to Moscow than Ukraine and right on the border.

2. It is widely acknowledged that the primary driver for Putin is not NATO expansion but actually historical “reasons” he has drummed up. His “histories” are titled things like “On the Historical Unity of Russians and Ukrainians”, not “On the Historical Animosity of Russia and NATO” for a reason.
