Yes, the severest shortages will hit first if all pipes are closed down, it will be a long uphill slog on the fronts you mention - or you can let Russia own you as you pay the bills!!
Every increase in heating efficiency is cumulative as well as permanent. Same with Solar/wind/tidal/geo - in effect they are being forced on all fronts. A huge increase in employment will ensue, as workers are needed on all fronts. Feedstocks can be thermally cracked from plastic waste - costs are similar to petroleum and need automated sorting, but once in the fluid state steel or char can be filtered out. It may not be as good as virgin feed due to color etc, but it will serve many applications. There will also be economic limits on what you do with virgin feed = less for fuel, less for plastic bags(which are 90% waste). More uses of plant based sources, hemp for bags, hemp for paper etc. For decades hemp was associated with marijuana - this is fading. A woody mass of hemp/bamboo
grows 10-20 times as fast as tree wood. The tree wood industry lobbied against Hemp (waving marihuana flags) for almost the past 100 years. An amazing number of things we used to make from wood can readily be made from bamboo/hemp just using the basic waste lignin from all woods as lamination glue. Paper from hemp/bamboo yields and lot of lignin as a byproduct and it is a good feed for lamination glue making. Sure bamboo/hemp paper is not pure white, but I can tolerate off white paper, and if I want white, just add a little chalk to the process - as is done with many office papers now, both flat as well as glossy.
Deciding the future of your life in 4th grade (when students are evaluated in Bavaria, at least) is maybe not great. Was living in Munich for five years and I'm glad we left before our son got sorted.

There's also a strong racial/class component to who gets into Hauptschule/Realschule/Gymnasium, surprise surprise.
This is a really great point. My brother-in-law went to film school and did exactly what you described. He networked with his professors and peers, worked on lots of projects, used the software and equipment available through the school, and graduated with a strong portfolio. He has been consistently working in the field since graduating.

Obviously this is just a single anecdote but I think it does show that it is possible to succeed if you really take advantage of the resources that are available to you in school.
What happens to comp in a large private company like this? Do they just pay lots of cash netflix-style?
Love Ory. More Ory.
Your arguing is a bit odd. You say that Ukraine had no abilities to use Russian nukes, but then in the 2nd paragraph you say -- hypothetically assuming that Ukraine would end up in a dictatorship -- that "we" (probably the western portion of the world?) "do not need yet more dictators-with-nukes".

But Ukrainians could not use these Russian nukes in the first place, so it would probably be better to let them keep these because they would end up not being able to use them anyway. I guess there is something missing :)
No, this is a flawed thinking in many levels.

Salaries take months, if not a full year to follow inflation. A salary is always behind the curve and devalued.

Besides, employees frequently fail to secure inflation adjustment to their salaries, especially in blue collar trades, where an individual worker is easier to replace.

Even when salaries are adjusted, it follows an average rate determined (more appropriate to say manipulated) by the same government which created the inflation.

Most likely the rate of inflation for your family's consumption basket is significantly higher than this "official" index.

Sabotaging your company by secretly pushing code because you suspect a layoff is coming isn't unreasonable?
I guess it's like when you're the assistant to a movie studio executive and he/she asks you to wash their car for them.
> College can still be affordable. The specific college you want, the one that other people have heard of outside an eight-county radius, dorm living the whole time, out-of-state tuition, famous professors, guest lecturers whose names are well-known... well, probably not.

This is purely from a software development context and obviously doesn’t apply outside, but Given that choice is almost just eschew college period. I have not seen good quality programs at a small schools and I imagine you also lose out in quality of employer sourcing, networking etc.

The time cost alone would make it seem that it’s better just to break into the field without education. It’s not easy, but it’s not particularly difficult either.
Since "socio-economically comfortable" is relative (some people are socio-economically comfortable with much less than other people) I'd argue it does not go beyond the general notion of "empathetic people"
> This study, "manifold effects of partisan media on viewers" [1], released earlier this month on April 3rd, 2022 disagrees with your premise.

I'm not so sure. That study seems rather limited, and in any case it would be far from definitive.
These were random employees (including one head of media that found himself talking to prominent Saudi contacts requesting the blue check, and one site reliability engineer who ended up becoming CEO of some Saudi non-profit for his thousands of data inquires for the Saudis). The bigger problem with that story is how Twitter leaders brushed it under the rug and supposedly did not care to mention it while the news made rounds.

We're not talking about abruptly changing standards, we're talking about holding kids to existing standards for which our society is already calibrated. I don't think your analogy applies (also, are Chinese schools really so much more rigorous than American schools, or is this assumed based on performance of Chinese immigrants?).
In Germany you can be sorted into a Hauptschule around age 10. At this point you will definitely not get a university education via any usual path. Increasingly even "the trades" are closed off to graduates and people expect a Realschule (HS/GED equivalent) degree for those.

I don't think university is appropriate for everyone and I dearly wish skilled trades had a higher position in society, and generally don't believe in the idea of "unskilled labor". But the German system is ultimately as cruel as the American one.
Another phenomenon I’ve found curious is the cross-cultural definition of a week as roughly a quarter moon, and correlated names for days of the week. [1]

I sometimes say gigadollars (or gigabucks) when i want my [captive] audience to understand i am talking about an unfathomably large amount of money. I use SI prefixes a lot because i grew up with both computers and simple circuit-building, and still use computers and now radio.

What happened in California over the last 50 years to make math scores plummet ?
Substitution and lock-in are also things that the antitrust laws are concerned with as they are relevant to how you define the market in the first place.
If the market is for iOS browser engines, Android browsers cannot effectively compete for consumers who are locked-in to the iOS ecosystem due to the switching costs and other barriers that must be surmounted in order for consumers to access those browsers. Almost no one is going to switch from an existing $1000+ phone to a new one solely because of their browser, leading to almost zero cross elasticity of demand between iOS and Android browsers (high cross-elasticity being indicia that products are part of the same market, e.g., mobile browsers).

So one way to answer your question would be to say that Apple has complete control over the relevant market, which is the market for iOS browser engines.

Mainly because the site has always worked this way and I fear unintended side effects from making significant changes.

Also, it's not clear how to do it well. I do have some ideas which I'd like to try someday. Here's one: people work well with feedback loops, so telling them that they're penalized and giving them a way to fix it could be a good thing. Unfortunately, it could also just be awful. This place is always one step away from sudden decline, and when walking near a precipice one wants to step carefully.
That's an amazing title!
You're missing the point: for better or worse, "Safari only" on iOS is probably the only thing causing any significant friction for "this site only works in chrome".

Sites already routinely require chrome on desktop. Remove Safari on iOS and ask yourself: will more sites support non-chrome browsers, or will fewer?
Lol yep. From my experience hiring can be much slower as well
I have one of these, a '5' and it still keeps time just fine after many years. It's a completely mechanical watch, no batteries to replace and no frills. It will likely outlive me.
If he truly cared about free speech, he would have criticized the CCP at least once. I did not say he has to criticize them everytime he mentions them.
Not if the war machine has enough safe resources. While the Pentagon is "researching" alternative energy sources, I am not sure if they are just paying lip-service or actually serious about it. The US military is the single largest point source of pollution in the world.

Rather than directly refuting my point you're dismissing it as a "trope" and instead arguing a strawman.
Woah, open source too, that is awesome! I'm currently learning Go, will try to get a PR in later this week.

Considering this public availability of your data source implementation details, a basic provider name listing somewhere in the docs would be good enough for me!
This hasn't been my experience at various points in the past, but admittedly my most recent foray was a few months ago.

How many folks are really willing to do that? The problem is that actually discussing the perceived root causes of this issue will get you shunned out of polite society.

You are the embodiment of the Dunning–Kruger effect.
It’s not relative. 300k buys you a fantastic life. You’ll never be in the 0.1% with a job vs owning assets, but these jobs are amazing by any measure, and a world away from being poor.

The very rich having astronomical amounts of money has zero negative effect on the day to day of the middle class - we don’t have a limited money supply.

You may say it buys them outsized influence, but media companies will always have owners, whether they be hectomillionaires or billionaires or whatever.
Yeah, both seem odd. I get different results between them on many of my accounts. I'm not sure how they'd even check for some of these without authing as your account.
€449,000 <-- wtf! that's a thousand separator
Agreed completely. I’m looking at going back, but I have a very meticulous plan for what, where, when and why. It’s almost certain that I’d get more value than I would have had I gone at 17-18.

On the flip side, it’d be straw that broke the camels back for my social life. I’d go from being one of the youngest people everywhere I go go probably one of the oldest.
Company was run more as a hobby/toy than a serious attempt at making money.

I was hearing credible stories back in 2014 about them having way too many junior devs with nothing, or very marginal amounts to do.

They had the excesses on the spending side covered without the insane growth or profitability to go along with it. Can be a great business if it's hugely downsized in headcount
Some of y'all are YOUNG. LOL.

I first used a Mac in about 1989, in college. I first got DEEP into one, for desktop publishing, a couple years later. I didn't OWN one until my late 20s, which by that point was an OS 9 environment for a couple years until OS X happened.

I never loved the old System like some Mac people do. It was faster and more stable than Win98, and definitely worked better on laptops, but that was a low bar indeed. It wasn't until OS X that the Mac got crazy stable and attracted the attention of web devs, which in turn drove the renaissance of the platform.
> > Are you saying we are born with that knowledge?

> Some of it, yes. Some of it seems to be encoded in our genes.

How do you arrive at that conclusion?

> It may also be culturally acquired. Furthermore, there exists a priori knowledge, without which you can throw away most of mathematics. Given a set of mathematical axioms, you can derive truths through deduction and pure reason, independent of experience.

Yes and mathematics is not science. You can build all sort of logical constructs that have absolutely no relation to the real world.

> > That certainly requires empirical evidence to confirm

> Most people do not require such confirmations; they go about their lives without it.

I thought we talk about acquiring knowledge? Sure lots of people do not question anything they do, but I don't think we should use that as a standard.
Default settings still exist and can be delivered just fine.
It's neat to see this, but I'll say I do not miss having a CRT TV or monitor. They were just so heavy even if you had a small one around 20 or so inches in size. I'm glad we moved on to LCD and OLED. The only thing CRT had down was decent blacks but that's obvious by the fact that it only would excite the phosphor dots it needed to make the image. Beyond that, good riddance to them. :)
> If you’re going to survive on a garden, you won’t be eating meat.

I'd recommend at least raising chickens, for the eggs, poop, and some meat. I would also add a couple geese to help defend the chickens. Rabbits are an option, too--they taste great, they fertilize the ground, and their pelts are useful.

Venison (deer meat) is another healthy addition, and because we humans have squashed wolf populations across North America it is our responsibility to either promote wolf recovery, do what wolves do (selectively kill deer), or both. Deer overpopulation leads to disease (as in urban rabbit populations, too) and changes in the land (see what the reintroduction of wolves did in Yellowstone National Park--beavers might have been critically important there, too).

Whatever environment you find yourself in, do what you can to increase the biodiversity of the nearby land. If the fungi and plants are part of the local web (and not some useless decorative or parasitic thing) they will confer increased resilience as climate changes (might carefully consider introducing quasi-local lifeforms depending on what the likely changes will be). Swapping grass lawns for a perennial mix of native prairie plants, for example, will bring more pollinators and smell/sound/look nice. Dandelions don't go back thousands of years in Washington state (that I'm aware of) but unlike daisies they are both edible (root, leaf, and flower) and minimally invasive.

In any case, tweak things so that nothing burns out; keep few enough chickens so they don't turn the ground to bare dirt, for example. Might need to cooperate extensively with neighbors.
Yeah, I don't see this as a big security disaster. I sync my SSH keys between machines manually. That increases the exposure risk, but not as much as using the same password on every site. Mobile devices have pretty good security (option to auto-wipe after using the wrong lock screen passcode a certain number of times). Desktop security is pretty bad (straightforward to steal the Windows Hello keys on some installs), but the rootkit that steals your WebAuthn keys will also just steal your Google session cookies or whatever.
I just used Caddy for the first time for https://lists.sh and was super impressed by the automatic TLS. The config was also 2 lines of code. Great work!

You mean governments stop printing and borrowing money indiscriminately does not stop inflation?

I did not say indiscriminate money printing by governments is the only source of inflation.

>"drilling basic arithmetic and then multiplication tables"

I get the sense that such rote methods are no longer encouraged and a lot of the "new math" in Common Core is aimed at approximation and reckoning so that students won't rely on memorization.
This is a real laptop class kind of statement, to borrow terminology from one of the more prominent anti-"woke" investors.

Living in California is expensive as hell, especially for younger folks with no inheritance, and the state operates at varying levels of dysfunction because it's got 40 million people in it.

At the beginning of 'Inscription position: front', it looks like it was not done in moderation
The requirement, as set by POSIX, was to run the shell in Xenix on an 80286, which only supported a 64k text segment.

There are few tools that can meet this requirement, and the limit is as relevant now as the day it was first published. Any aspiring shell must run within this limit to fully pervade POSIX. Ignoring this requirement greatly reduces applicable scope.

Korn '88 could do it, but the code was not pretty.

Any POSIX shell replacement has to hit that target.
Which states are doing it right?
Slaughtering the conquered enemy was the exception, not the norm, at least throughout Eurasia with whose history I'm most familiar. Was that the norm in the Americas? Considering the negligible amounts of historical data preserved about many of civilisations there, can one even make such a sweeping conclusion? Even if that were the case, significantly more people lived in Eurasia so that would still be the exception for the generic human population.

It has nothing to do "western culture", but with the evolution of warfare from the "Cabinet wars" to nationalistic "total wars". Colonial wars were often with brutal consequences, but again, massively slaughtering the native population was the exception, not the norm ( Herero and Namaqua genocide). The vast majority of humans conquered in the last few centuries weren't slaughtered en masse for the sake of it.

The lock is only there to keep people honest. Opening the door/breaking a window etc. will trigger the home alarm system as well as being caught on camera. Killing my internet and jamming the cellular backup is not really a huge concern in my area as there are plenty of more ripe targets (attached garage doors left open all day etc.)

Unfortunately, tracking is awful for the low-track students because guess what, no self-respecting teacher wants to be stuck teaching underperformers. So the students are trapped in that situation, being taught by terrible teachers who don't actually care for their educational achievement, and unable to improve. You see those outcomes across the board, including in the celebrated German system of academic vs. vocational school tracks. Yes, there are ways to cross through to the highest tracks, but very few students can avail themselves of those practically.
A reverse or lifetime mortgage means there's a reduced inheritance for the next generation. It's also a steady process meaning there's no sudden surge in supply.
