I think you should clarify your sample. I'm a liberal, was in favor of school closings early, my daughter went to her first year of kindergarten remote, and I was very aware of the tradeoffs. People like Emily Oster have been excellent at raising concerns.
I can’t think of a reason you’d need to pull your whole media library. Usually it’s just whatever show you want to watch. As for code, it’s typically small, and you can either pull incremental diffs a la git or you just do everything on your server so you don’t have to pull anything to your client at all.

It's worth noting that emulating x86 linux on M1 macs with qemu still sucks pretty bad. This was an important use case for me that I basically gave up on and got an EC2 instance, in addition to buying a couple more spare x86 machines.
Mostly agree with these points, but I don't think I understand this one:

> End users are divided between Windows, MacOS/BSD, and locked down phone platforms, nobody makes native applications.

This is probably gonna end up being a dumb question, but isn't this point a pro for Smalltalk (or at least Pharo - I forget how far upstream the VM comes from) because each application runs in a VM, which should be platform-agnostic?

Kagi allows you to set the priority of domains, as well as some other tuning. Though it is in beta at the moment, and the plan to charge for use eventually.
Pre-delta, Covid was massively disproportionately causing major complications and death for elderly and the chronically unhealthy.

We know very few kids in school have parents or guardians that are "elderly" and that not many have parents or guardians that are "chronically unhealthy", and we knew that Covid (pre-delta) had a very low complication and death rate on school-aged children (not too dissimilar from the flu).

It seems like the smarter thing to do would've been to let parents have their kids stay home if they wanted, and let teachers stay home if they had an excuse, and make efforts to make the environment as safe as possible.

Instead - it became entirely political. One side wanted to go to the extreme for safety. The other side wanted to pretend like it was a hoax.

Once Delta came around - all adults had access to vaccines. Once fully vaccinated - Covid again is not materially worse than the flu (unvaccinated). Again - at this point - the decision for students could've been left up to the parents, rather than just forcing everyone to stay home.

Then I think that group asking for safer vaccines should be called "safe-vaxxers", right?
The stirrup wasn't invented yet. Putting a limit on how much armour a rider can wear, and how 'hard' he can be engaged in battle. When we read about Alexander the Great leading his cavalry in a charge we shouldn't think of medieval knights crashing into the line. But rather north American natives getting close and pulling back, while prodding and poking with their spears. The chariot doesn't have that problem, so there is definitely an use for both chariots and cavalry.

Irrelevant. GitHub complies with sanctions, and thus users from sanctioned countries cannot expect business to remain as usual. Services like crates.io have more pressing matters to deal with than helping third-parties circumvent sanctions.
This will likely be like Facetime. I don't think Apple typically cares about this use case, just like nobody is going to use an Apple Card on an iPhone. This is targetted towards iPhone households (which seem to be rather common, as anecdotal as it may sound, I can count a dozen households where nobody has Android, and this meets their need).

I would use Zelle for cross device transfer or any of the other apps, it's not like we have a shortage of them. Although I agree it would be good if we had less of them to need to use.

> It would absolutely take longer for the world to replace Russian uranium fuel production. They've built is up as a Cold War Project-Manhattan-level strategic project over more than a decade.

As I said, I don't know. (EDIT, meaning that I don't know, not that I dispute your claim. It would be nice to have actual numbers.) It does also take years to set up transportation capacity for LNG, including the tankers, terminals and other infrastructure.

Anyway, had the west realized this exposure for real in 2014, I would have expected that at least some increased capacity would be available outside of Russia already, with an increase in capacity every month as we go forward. And had the output of that capacity been put into strategic reserves, one would have some level of reserve while building up more capacity.

What it looks like from your link, is that there was an initative started last year to reduce dependancy on Russian fuel. I suppose time will tell how long it takes to reach reasonable production volumes.

And one thing is obvious. Storing and transporting nuclear fuel is orders of magnutudes cheaper than storing and transporting natural gas.

To anyone who doesn't know what a lighthouse is used for, comparing them with a GPS wrongly alludes that they are used to directly convey the ship's position. This isn't true, though you can sometimes deduce your position if there are enough lighthouses on your horizon. The main function of a lighthouse is to let the crew know that the vessel is inside a safe fairway when calling port or for example when navigating an archipelago or a coastline. It's been over a decade since I last did any sailing, but I believe it's still mandatory to verify safe bearing with the lighthouse (when present).
But a lot of people do use it?

I'm not saying it shouldn't be returned, I'm saying it won't be, not in the near future.

The Parthanon marbles are a political touchstone/dog-whistle in the UK, especially for people who view the empire in a largely positive light. Views like that are sufficiently widespread that it would be hard to get the sufficient public support for one of the two major political parties to back their return. Corbyn vowed to, but his wing of the Labour party are out of power at the moment. If they were to come back we might see a change in attitude, but they would be strongly attacked for it. I can't find any indication of the current Labour leadership's position, I would expect them to dodge the issue as the try to appeal to the center.
It's a worrisome dilemma, in which you are forced to reason. There is no win scenario, only varying degrees of unknown loss states.

The irony being that many kids then spent a lot of time with their grandparents, so that their parents could continue to hold down their jobs while schools were closed.
I think most people will disagree with you on how big of an inconvenience a helmet is. At least I will.

In Europe most people didn't even wear helmets when they went skiing (on-piste) until a few years ago. Now pretty much everyone does, but it's one more thing you'll carry with you everywhere you go. And on warm days I sometimes have to take my helmet off in the gondola because it gets very warm.
I cannot edit my comment anymore, but I realized Crawford is the Martin of 'Forest Garden' fame. I was obviously meaning Martin Fowler, from the 'Refactoring' book.

Maybe we'll have 'Forest Software' in some time. 'A code forest is an ecosystem where the population of bugs, slugs, trees and weed balance themselves, requiring very little input from the engineer'.
Similar to your interest. I've been experimenting with Data URIs and base64 encoded html pages. I could manage around 400kb in url, beyond which it wouldn't load in chrome and firefox.

A plugin for Feather Wiki to export to itty bitty would be awesome. I've personally did some experiments. I'll share the finding to the Feather Wiki author to give him an idea and also add an issue for a plug in request, so some hackers can work on it...

Not sure, but there is definite collateral damage because it is biologically active.

From Fig 2. of https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7789336/

Mechanism of DNA methylation and histone modification alterations induced by nanomaterials and nanoparticles:

Exposure to NMs and NPs alters the functioning of chromatin-modifying proteins, e.g., DNA methylation and demethylation machinery, and histone-modifying enzymes, causing changes in the pattern of DNA methylation and histone modifications.

One of the most common effects of NMs and NPs is the induction of cellular stress, e.g., oxidative and endoplasmic reticulum stress, and metabolic disturbances, e.g., one-carbon metabolism and the citric acid cycle.

These events are causing DNA damage and repair response and metabolic alterations affecting the functioning of chromatin-modifying enzymes.

Any or all of these events may result in hypomethylation of DNA and altered histone modification patterns.

Additionally, exposure to NMs and NPs causes activation of the inflammatory response that, in turn, may cause DNA hypermethylation and histone modification changes
First of all, and before "how to": why "stay informed"?
Wild speculation: interestingly, school's often underrated original function "to keep children off the streets" rephrased as "protecting against harmful influence of the world until your frontal lobe develops" means they might be reinvented to be digital limiting structures instead of physical limiting structures.
one reason to close school is not just about kids got covid themselves, but they could carry covid back home and hurt those elders in the house and make the pandemic worse.

it's a trade-off, I think we did what we had to do.

For a very long time human beings talked to each other in groups that required no authority, only consensus; We've had a very hard time translating this online, karma, following, friending, subs and rules.. none of it is perfect. But adding an authority to dictate what is good discussion what is bad, comes with a host of problems in itself.

But i do agree that a benevolent dictator may be better than a functioning democracy, for a time.
> I can't really see which bits of web3 are meant to threaten the existing web, or are more dangerous to it than the existing threats.

I’m not sure about dangerous or threatening, but virtually every “web3” product so far has come with a blockchain and token solution that makes it extremely expensive and prone to weird incentives like speculative investing and hoarding.

Look at any web3 style project from distributed file storage to virtual land sales and you’ll find the majority of participants in the ecosystem aren’t actually interested in using the platform. They’re interested in getting there early and scooping up as many tokens or coins as possible so they can flip them to someone else in the future. Actually using any of the NFT based systems can be shockingly expensive ($10-$100 in fees just to modify an ENS entry, for example) or involve a lot of weird financial quirks like a price that effectively varies wildly from month to month depending on blockchain congestion and speculative forces.
A great point! :)

Yes, in a well-run co-op, all people understand return on equity and other such concepts relevant to long-term strategy. Why? Because they apply such techniques locally (to their department) as well as globally (for the entire company, and in society at large).

You might think my qualification of "well-run" co-op is a bit of a "no true Scotsman", but the fact is that in all forms of business, there are well run ones and badly run ones. A feudal C-suite does not universally understand things like return on equity – in fact, I suspect, many companies are run feudally with a C-suite that has no idea what they are doing.
Is there an actual positive use case to teenagers using instagram?

It seems overall very similar to smoking. It is bad for you; there are strong network effects, as in teenagers get peer pressure to do it if everyone else is doing it; it is difficult to get them to stop once they start; it is difficult to prevent them from starting.
1) Depends on the protocol, chain and platform. Ethereum itself is unlikely to be impacted by an EMP as the number of validators is large and widely distributed across the globe.

2) A chain like Ethereum is positioning itself as a secure and decentralized settlement base layer upon which more scalable higher-level and application-specific layers might be built, typically with rollups that batch many operations together. Other chains are making security and centralization trade-offs to provide scalability at this bottom base layer. The latter may not always work out, as seen with Luna crashing or Solana network going offline.

Very few people ever self identify as "not fine" so along with being a single data point yours is pretty biased
Oh, that's what you meant. I don't really see the problem with that, [1] explains that the biggest bias that needs to be corrected is change of time of measurement. The actual measurements are just one of the inputs of a model (that can also produce temperature estimates for the places where the measurements took place at e.g. 12:00). I thought someone was rewriting the observations!

Claims like

> web3 is a naked pyramid grift

are not fostering an intellectually honest and objective debate.

Sure, there are countless speculators. Agreed, many things are overhyped.

The underlying technology is still innovative and enables novel solutions.
Well, I never said "orally." If it's beneficial to get NO via sunlight on your skin, it doesn't seem crazy that it might work via some lotion. Even considering oral supplements, one might also take a precursor if the molecule itself isn't stable in the stomach.

It's true there may be some important difference between sunlight-induced NO generation and whatever other supplement/injection/lotion/etc, but my point here is that the right approach is to focus on the mechanism, and avoid the naturalistic fallacy.
At an abstract level I’m all for web3, where web3 is an internet application with distributing hosting and all users paying in equal proportion to their usage to maintain said hosting.

That said everything we have now is a lackluster proof of concept that doubles as a pyramid scheme.

Imagine if you had to pay for your Netflix subscription with Netflix stock. What a joke.
The first part of staying informed is figuring out what you want to stay informed about.

Complete the sentence:

"I want to stay informed about X so that I can do Y. "

It doesn't matter what X and Y are. You will never be informed by just sampling random information.

You can't be informed about everything in the world, and you can't achieve your goal unless you articulate it.

Media companies can't tell you what X and Y are.

What do you care about and what impact do you want to have, on yourself or on the world.

Once you figure out your goal it is relatively easy to find high quality information.
I just moved to Signal and told everyone I was going to do that. Some have followed and some haven't. At a point I had 6 messaging apps to talk to 6 different people and it was untenable especially after moving to Graphene OS as I didnt want to run microg.

Those who havent migrated, well, not a huge loss and sone have switched over to email. Discussions also gained a bit more depth with the move to long-form writing. It really comes down to this - do you want to have fewer apps? then make the switch. Do you want to talk to everyone on their preferred platforms - continue as is. There are some apps that help mitigate this (I believe element can through addons) but I wanted to cut down not add complexity.
Apparently, national polling is showing that about 80% of parents are concerned about what is being taught in the schools, so it’s likely that this schooling system has decoupled from the values that the citizens want to uphold.

I wish they also invented new alphabets. The need for diacritics (and letter groups) indicates a non-ideal choice of the alphabet. Vietnamese is a good example of that, closely followed by Polish and Finnish. (English, on the other hand, has no diacritics, and therefore the Latin alphabet seems like a perfect fit; Russian is another example of a good match.)
