The problem at the moment with renewables is they still don't provide reliable base load, and energy storage systems while useful locally are proving incredibly expensive at scale. The fact is the only option we have right now in many countries for reliable base load generation outside fossil fuels is nuclear. Some other options may eventually become viable, like geothermal or fusion, but there's no realistic prospect of that over the next few decades.

If we want to get serious right now about eliminating fossil fuels, the fact is the answer is a mix of renewables and nuclear.
While scoping is necessary and useful, I hadn't ever learned that there were categorical restrictions upon mind map graphs, definitionally

The difference between a URI and a URL; a URL is supposed to be dereferenceable and retrievable.

Named Graphs are composed of triples:

{named_graph_uri, subject_uri, predicate_uri, value_uri, [datatype_uri, language_uri]}

{g, s, p, o, [d, l]}

E.g. Rdflib supports various stores for and representations of RDF: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RDFLib

Though, general systems are more complex than the average [concept] network: there are nonlinearities in so many of the observed relations between components that trees and DAGs are laughably insufficient; systems descriptions require more than naievely-acyclical graphs without nonlinearity in independent relations even.

How best to describe nonlinear relations without a MultiDiGraph that bundles edges together by [QFT] field, because they're objectively not statistically independent?
>Our ever increasing population and consumption will cause the price of energy and materials to increase as the low-hanging fruit is picked.

Not only are we picking the low-hanging fruit in energy production, but we're picking it at a temporarily discounted cost (with carbon emissions not being priced in) at the expense of our future selves and future generations.
There’s no question of statistics here, it is clearly an anecdote from personal experience that lines up with the original stats

I'm not and have never been a game developer, but I think that a decent analogy here might be how many game studios write the core engine in C++, and then do a lot of the high level game logic and scripting in an interpreted language such as Lua or their own dialect of lisp.

I would guess that there's a clear separation of responsibilities, and each of the two languages is very well-suited to what it's being used for. There's not really a whole lot of anxiety about getting Lua (or whatever) to pull out all the stops you see in a compiler like SBCL or interpreter like V8, because these communities were never looking for a single language that could cover all uses cases in the first place. To steal an analogy I used the other day from myself, I'm guessing they don't want a spork all that badly because they're plenty happy with using a fork and a spoon.

That's how the community of people doing scientific computing and suchlike in Python tends to feel about things, too.
??? Trump came within inches of putting enough pressure on politicians to throw the election for him. Were he to have more support, which is entirely elicited via platforms like Twitter, than the 30% of Americans who believe the election was rigged and 'Trump Won' - would be 55% and we'd have a constitutional crisis, it would be very, very bad.

It's oddly naive to fail to understand how this works because it seems pretty obvious.

Why does anyone think that the US, Japan, UK etc. could not fall into the same trap other nations are in?

Russians right now believe Ukraine is a giant country of Nazis, and that the hundreds of dead bodies showing up after their Army withdraws are people killed by Ukrainians as a false flag, or they're actors, or fake, or 'it doesn't exist'. If the lie is big enough, and you keep telling it, it can be real.

Reality matters as much as anything else.

We probably need a constitutional amendment on that frankly.
As a side note, I really love the choice to dual license, and wish it were offered more often.
Yes this is an interesting result that I recall from my days when I was into chess.

But this result speaks to something more general that is interesting as well. It seems high levels of skill in many other fields is associated with incredible ability to recall details about a performance in that field. If I recall correctly, Bobby Fischer was able to perfectly recall positions (and his analysis of them) from games he had played years ago (and consider how many games a professional chess player might play in a career).

The question I have is, what exactly is the connection? Is this association essential? And is it the incredible memory that leads to high skill, or the it's the reverse?
We need graphs like these about power density and charging times/cycles.
Ukraine was not a vassal state from 1991 to 2014.

Read the Independence Act of Ukraine from 1991, a referendum was held on that act by the entire population and approved with a clear majority.

The text clearly states that Ukraine should be independent and neutral status, it shall not join any military block.

By 2013-2014 calls for joining EU which has a defensive clause, effectively are calls to cancel the Independence Act of Ukraine.

IT has normalized this idea that you do professional development in your free time, instead that on the job. This is not the case for many (most?) other areas.

Anybody in this position: ask your managers for time. Talk about expected career development. Invoke the Google 20% (yeah yeah, I know, not perfect, but still). We need to reclaim our free time as actually free from work of any sort, even if we like our work.

Rome had a huge empire and could therefore field large armies so yes they had a real logistical advantage.

As to feudal soldiers vs legionnaires it was largely a question of equipment. Mounted knights required horse that weren’t available to Rome because selective breeding had yet to produce them. Improvements in metalwork and armor design resulted in far better coverage for the same weight. Knights largely stopped using shields because they didn’t need them as much as they could use a free hand.

That said there was a large variation on both sides. Disease, exhaustion etc could also wreck an otherwise capable army.
Thanks for sharing this. I'm the type of person that likes to do 70 different things and didn't think to look for resources that might better support that way of living.

I get what you're saying, and I would agree that the power of _most_ politicians is minimal compared to the absolute richest people in the world (so not just mere single-digit billionaires, unless their wealth is built on owning a platform, like Oprah).

However, read the book Charlie Wilson's War. Wilson had no money to speak of, but the book reveals the incredible power that he wielded, largely by sidling up to selective groups (like the Israeli lobby) and getting key committee appointments. And Wilson wasn't even a U.S. Senator! (Generally speaking Representatives have far less power than Senators)

Terraform as a language is a bit clunky and feels not quite complete. For example, to accomplish if/else logic, you have to hack something like: `count = var.is_foo ? 1 : 0`

More than the language syntax, getting any response from the hashicorp team on their official providers is like rolling the dice. If your bug or feature pr is a bit on the fringes and not in their sights, it can sit for months/years without traction or even a non-automated response. With just the aws provider, there are over 3000 issues and nearly 400 open PRs. That team is understaffed or mismanaged. It has gotten marginally better over the last year or so, but generally speaking, Hashicorp doesn’t seem to care while they’re pouring all efforts into their own cloud.

Multiplication only makes numbers smaller if we restrict ourselves to starting with a positive number.

If we instead start with a negative number, multiplication will make the number bigger.

If we allow for any integer, multiplication on average, will neither be biased one way or another.

It's a bit of a carny trick to hide the bias in the selection of only positive numbers, and then act like multiplication itself has the issue..

This leads me to believe the author doesn't know math very well and their learning techniques are not efficient or worth giving credence to.

Could be further immortalization of Oliver Smoot, “a fraternity pledge to Lambda Chi Alpha, who in October 1958 lay down repeatedly on the Harvard Bridge (between Boston and Cambridge, Massachusetts) so that his fraternity brothers could use his height to measure the length of the bridge, which summed to "364.4 Smoots ± 1 ear"

> Could Boeing built a self-landing reusable rocket? Almost certainly.

McDonnell Douglas is part of Boeing and (before they were part of Boeing) did the DC-X prototype.

One failure ended the program, but it was transfered from McDonnell to NASA at that point I think and funding was shifted towards the reusable VentureStar. But it did demonstrate reuse and went through a partial failure of a hydrogen explosion and recovery:

Yeah I guess k8s would be the best start, if you want to achieve aws-style features without a ton of development resources. I know barely enough to use k8s as an application developer though, so maybe not. Adding MiniO and a simplified, pre-configured Knative experience would be my next step, because everyone (including me) seems to love Google Cloud Run.

For networking not sure if you can/should integrate Hetzner's native networking and load balancers or should do some kind of overlay network like fly.io.

For managed databases and other services it would be great for you if first and third party "in your cloud" solutions like Aiven, Elastic Cloud, Snowflake etc would support hetzner but I've never seen it. Fly.io seems like a nice model of offering semi-managed databases.

With those things in place, and hetzner's few regions, some costumers might need Cloudflare in front of their services, but that might not be a bad thing. Is Hetzner in "Bandwidth Alliance"?

You’re not wrong on this.

Being able to give 100% guaranteed valid plans would require cloud providers to publish full specifications of their APIs, including (most importantly) the domain of each property relative to possible values of all the other properties of a resource.

Given that most cloud providers struggle to publish an API where even the data types for properties are correct, this does not seem realistic today.

Another way to achieve a good result would be an accurate “dry run” API from the provider, but these are also often inconsistent when they exist, and make planning painfully slow.
>Any type of evaluation or test will at best be a proxy for the thing you want to ultimately measure: true performance in the role being interviewed for.

This reminds me of the MCSE early days. That certification was extremely valuable in the late 90s, early 00s, until there were thousands of interview prep tests. Ends up people would get the cert and not have a clue how to do any type of meaningful administration. Now, the MCSE's value is quite diluted.

Given that there is now a prep industry, I don't think the leet code interviews have much value anymore. It's simply rote memorization, which was devalued given search technology we've had for ~25 years.
Paul Haberli, when he was a computer graphics researcher at SGI, wrote a paper in 1993 called Texture Mapping as a Fundamental Drawing Primitive, which was about how to use texture mapping for drawing anti-aliased lines, air-brushes, anti-aliased text, volume rendering, environment mapping, color interpolation, contouring, and many other applications.

I'm an astrophotography nut, but I can see where imaging with a telescope has similar issues/hurdles as imaging with a microscope. There are mounts that allow you to position a smartphone on the exit pupil of an eye piece of a telescope so that you get the benefits of the magnification of the eye piece. I can only imagine that there are similar for microscopes as well.

As for using a DSLR with the microscope, I'm guessing it might have similar issues as astronomy. When attaching the camera to the telescope (possibly same for microscope), you lose the magnification of the eye pieces. The image data is hitting the tiny tiny pixels of the DSLR so that the scale of things will be very small in your high megapixel image. This is why so many people prefer lower resolution cameras as the pixel sizes on the sensor are much larger. Just based on experience with optics, I'd imagine this would hold true to microscopes as well.

Covid was the cause of the largest mass casualty death event in US history.

It's embarrassing people keep pretending like every doctor in nurse in the USA who has said their hospitals have been overrun with death for over a year now and is the worst they ever have seen are just lying.

I'm guessing this is just some kind of coping mechanism because it's too terrible to comprehend and don't want it to be true, but it is fact.
A single Blockchain is pretty slow. Sharing is processing transactions in parallel (potentially on different chains), while maintaining consistency between shared chains.

You have to consider this in the context of an active construction site where material handling equipment is strewn about everywhere. 30 pounds is nothing to a pallet jack or a forklift that can go to a telehandler that can put the load in a pickup truck. A wide variety of power equipment is just sitting around, keyed-alike. Thousands of pounds of copper can be gone in a moment to a clever gang of thieves.

Still not a great ROI for the criminal risk being taken, but the people taking this stuff live in very different circumstances than myself and presumably yourself.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanban_(development)

the basic idea is "finish what you start" and "you can only have a certain number of projects going at once" so you don't start anything unless there is room on the board.

Kanban is the most basic approach to management and it applies to a wide range of applications. For instance at the cafe in the building next to mine the people who make food keep track of how many orders they have in flight and don't take a new order until the queue is short enough.
> What is with this compulsion some people have to categorize people based on their political leanings?

This isn’t “people”, but a politician. If him being a politician isn’t important, why is “Congressman” the first word in the title?

This isn’t “Hey, check out this guys cool DIY project!”, but “Hey, check out this politicians cool DIY project!”.

In that context it totally makes sense to point out that this politician who builds cool stuff isn’t necessarily a good guy.

Sure, technical ability (in whatever role you're trying to fill/enter) is important, but if you clash with the team(s) you'll be working with, it doesn't matter how "good" you are - as I wrote several years ago[0], "all-star teams" are horrible: what matters is that as a team you can [very close to] "the best".

Having a series of individual interviews can help ensure that no one's inherent bias (pro or con) unduly affects the hiring process

> Aaand we're down to single-factor authentication

Not necessarily: if your password manager requires more than one factor to access, then there's still no way to access the service with only one factor.

This might be standard MFA to login to your password vault, or in the case of 1Password, the vault's encryption key _basically_ serves as a second factor, so long as you never save it digitally (and print it instead).
Not in this case, the literal translation from German would be "A Blue Connector makes no USB 3.0", which makes perfect sense in English. But by shifting to the conditional you get "A Blue Connector would no USB 3.0 make", which is close.
