> To have significant impact all these "eat less, have fewer kids, don't use services that
demand the use of cars" is more or less "be poor".

Eat less, today with obesity epidemic showing no signs of stopping, doesn't have to mean being poor but can mean to be healthy. Having kids is expensive, saying that having less kids makes your poorer is divorced from logic. I can see how saying don't use services that demand the use of car can seem to be advocating for being poorer but it doesn't necessarily follow.

> Does it matter? The number matters. 100 companies are responsible for 71% of emissions.

It seems that not only did you not read the article that you linked but you did not read my previous post to the end. As I've explained In my previous post that those 100 companies do not produce 71% of emissions. What they do produce is fossil fuel that, when burned, produces those 71% of emissions.

> Literally nothing you or I can do in our entire lifetime will have any significant impact compared to this 100 hundred. And we haven't talked about the long tail of companies.

So what you are saying is is that if all of the people of earth stopped using fossil fuels today those 100 companies would still be producing and burning(they'd have to since nobody else would be doing it) enough fossil fuels to produce those 71% of emissions? Why would they do that?

> Individuals have been sold a lie that only they are responsible for fighting the climate change.

I agree that the responsibility doesn't solely lie on an individual. I disagree that an individual has no responsibility. The rest of what you wrote is idiocy that, without you understanding it, advocates for being poor.
Not the commenter, but it’s fairly straightforward.

I’ve actually made a simple calculator[1] for this, but you don’t really need it.

What you want to do is get a good picture of your actual usage per day in kWh. You can use a Kill-a-Watt plug or similar (a device that kWh that pass through it).

Once you have your daily kWh use, you can multiply by however many days you want to run without charging the battery. A lot of off grid solar people go for 2-4 days.

That gives you the useable battery size in kWh you need.

LiFePo4 batteries (arguably the best for this setup) typically have 80-90% useable capacity. Lead acid (the more traditional kind) have around 50%.

Adjust for that and you know what size of battery to buy.

A lot of batteries are defined as Amp hours and voltage. Multiply them together to get watt hours.

Max_kWh = (Ah * V) / 1000

Useable_kWh = Max_kWh * useable_percent

Nothing wrong with freedom of expression. Having an opinion or expressing yourself in uncomfortable terms isn't illegal, and I see no problem with this.

Agree or disagree and that's that.
OK so Tether went from 83bn to 73bn... what's the big deal? It's not like LUNA.
His comment was more that the juniors that he mentors break their environments.

The junior breaking their environment is usually self inflicted.
Besides to fix this, you still don't need to run everything remotely.

In my experience, the biggest slowdown to being productive is corporate lockdown of laptops, but then no support from corporate for getting a development environment set up. So the first 2 weeks on the job is waiting for local admin permissions so that you can install brew and make your Mac environment as close to Linux as possible.
there is a crisis in the usd though. it is fast losing its status as world reserve currency and coincidentally today we are at a footstep of ww3 ;)

That's actually a very good point. Tax deductions in contrast to direct payments typically favor high income individuals over poorer people. At the same time for the government to get the greatest impact of your policy, which typically means influencing the behavior of the maximum amount of people. Again this would point to targeting the poor&middle class.
I'm still confused, I thought we were responding to this comment: `So, your Tesla is actually less likely to catch on fire than a regular ICE car.` << this assertion is not supported by the named statistic, that's all we are saying here.

> for those risks (like getting into an accident with a drunk driver), Tesla is already top of the class

I guess while we're here, I don't know if that's easy to back up either. Overall fatality rates vs other models show a complicated story.
Wasn't Tether the one that was revealed to have only had enough backing for like 3% of its coins a few months ago? Surely that must be drying up now.

Another commenter pointed out that German universities need 1.3% of GDP to educate 27% of the population without charging them tuition. USA actually gives more public funding to colleges than Germany and yet those colleges are still asking for tuition.
Wow, what an insurmountable problem!!! All plans off!
> Unless you assume there are bad actors who will crop out the tags.

I don't know why people do that but lots of randoms on the internet do that and they're not even bad actors per se. The removed signatures from art posted online became a kind of a meme itself. Especially when comic strips are reposted on Reddit. So yeah, we'll see lots of them.

Users can already run code on their infrastructure with CI jobs, so I’d guess they already have that part figured out.

The extensions and settings sync are going to be interesting, especially since they were pretty positive about extension support in the post.
OK, yeah so the video mentioned an optimistic price of $250k/satelite. $100k is definitely better! It sounds like $250k would be matching the v1.5 satelite cost.

I guess the overall thing would be to break things down and figure it out. I'm skeptical mainly from a "possible market share" perspective ($99/month works well for some, way less for others, and honestly the competition is not wired broadband but cell networks). But I am here to be proven wrong!
This is either a good thing in that "wow, they atleast have $10B to redeem instantly"

Burn Math Class by Jason Wilkes is interesting.
I use the current web editor a lot for small changes on repositories I don't want to full clone.

For instance if you need to change a value in a configuration file, you can make the change in a new branch, have the CI pass on it, check if every was fine, and merge/deploy as needed. All from the web interface.

I'm sure some people use it do crazy complex changes, but I see it as convenience for scope limited tasks more than anything.
I also don't know much about virology, but one thing I have heard is that some types of viruses (eg. RNA) are more prone to mutation, whereas some others (eg. DNA) essentially include something like the biological equivalent of a checksum, slowing mutations.

For some reason, the article isn't opening for me, so I don't know anything about this virus.

The “too big to fail” businesses ended up being the best investments in the US.

That’s some impressive prognostication! I recently released a semver major for a minor corner case bug fix. I couldn’t have predicted this would be version 4 after over a year maintaining version 3, but it was a significant breaking change to fix a minor bug.
GitHub Codespaces and VSCode remote development solve this problem by using docker and optionally docker compose to create reproducible development environments.

GitHub is using Codespaces itself [0], which is a huge Rails app with tons of infrastructure behind it I’d assume.

One thing that works for me is putting a layer of corrigated cardboard (make sure it's recyleable) down on top of the soil before heaping compost onto it. This gives the compost layer lots of time to develop into a healthy soil with the first crops you put there, and crucially for worms to get going eating the compost, eating the cardboard and starting to churn up the soil. The cardboard keeps the hard layer damp for long periods softening the upper part of it.

We did see that with the beanie baby boom of the mid-1990s, which in fact is probably more comparable to the ape thing. I don't remember Beanie Baby regulation.
Who's saying it's Chinese debt? It's more likely to be loans to crypto ventures. Until it's disclosed, it's anyone's guess, but anyone claiming anything with certaintity, is full of it.
Wow, I really like this line of thinking. Never thought about it from the perspective of a competitive feedback loop.
in prolog the definition of path is something like:
path(x,y) := edge(x,y).
path(x,z) := edge(x,y),path(y,z).

So to me it seems a little strange the definition of path in datalog from a prolog user point of view.
Well - define fast. It's amazing to me that USD has been the world reserve currency for so long. Historically only silver has done better.
An even better comparison would also distinguish between differently fuelled ICEs. A diesel powered car is much less likely to catch fire than a petrol one.

And, as previous commenter points out, age comes into the mix too. I used to be involved in the old VW camper van scene. Due to the age of those vehicles, it was generally advised to replace all the rubber fuel lines on those when buying a petrol engined one, as so many people had had engine bay fires because of perished rubber piping.
Am I correct that it’s not necessarily $10B in withdrawals, as it is that the total market cap (valuation * total coins) dropped by $10B?

Seems like an important distinction?
Whoever got to offload their Evergrande debt for USDT sure was lucky! That trade have made Tether some friends in high places.

I'll wait until this at least.
Frameworks like nextjs are in an eternal existential battle to stay relevant. In my 4 years of using Next, I experienced a large number (6 or 7 releases) of major version releases.

What the industry needs is not more breaking changes, but solidified frameworks that companies can rely on.
Every major release adds another wave of technical debt as things become deprecated.

I appreciate updates, but to me this particular proposal shows a lack of long term vision for the framework, attempting to throw in all the exciting bells and whistles from competing frameworks.

This philosophy of “lets stay relevant” will ultimately cost businesses.
There should be civil suits for everyone that has been affected. Clearview should compensate every single one of them in the best case because people probably did not consent to this usage willingly and Clearview certainly knows this too.
The problem with "tech debt" is that in the heads of non-developers it is equated with financial debt. When you take on financial debt for a business it's a long-term investment (a buy-to-rent mortgage on a property, or a business loan to buy a factory plant for example). So OK, we're a startup that needs to find the right market, so we'll take on X amount of tech debt to get there, and then when we are in a better place we'll pay down the tech debt in installments of X amount per month.

Mostly what I've seen of "tech debt" has not been this kind of deliberate decision making of tradeoffs. It's more like:

1. Non-tech founders want to start a tech company.

2. Seeing the high salaries of developers they opt to hire their college roommate or relative.

3. Friend/relative is horribly inexperienced and builds a pile of crap.

4. Said pile of crap nevertheless gets market traction.

5. Customers complain of endless bugs & sales want long list of features.

6. Friend/relative is promoted to CTO. Time to hire experienced devs!

7. Experienced devs say "this is a pile of crap, throw it away and start over".

8. Founders tell devs no, you have to fix bugs and add features. Hop to it.

9. Developers have no leeway or political capital to fix the underlying problems, do what they can, and eventually leave.

So it's more akin to an 18 year old with a gambling habit who has just discovered payday loans.
Accurate statistics are hard to come by because of the way Tesla does business and markets themselves. For the longest time, they only allowed repairs done by them. I think that's been reduced a little? Not sure. There were reports of Tesla logging repairs as "goodwill" repairs and replacements, when they should have really been done under warranty or not at all if the warranty period was over. This mislabeling misleads, if only internally and to investors about how much warranty work they're doing. There's several other things like this were Tesla has first hand manipulated data to benefit them.
I guess I was being a bit "greedy" on the analysis, cuz I was thinking about an M1 Macbook Pro, or just laptops in general.

An M1 Mac Mini max power draw according to Google is ~40W. Google tells me a 24 inch monitor is 20-60W. Maybe I'm looking at the wrong numbers, but that looks like a 100W thing? Perhaps that's totally off base though, or not comparable numbers. But I have to imagine that a laptop (or laptop-based infra) is gonna be better for you (even if you need the power in theory).
Redemptions are also done when exchanges need to offload Tether to buy other crypto currencies to fulfill orders.

For what it is worth I have been getting a lot of emails from OTC brokers trying to fill BTC and ETH orders over the last few days.
I can see a world where in person consumption of creative media (art, music, movies etc), where all devices are to be left at the door, becomes more and more sought after and lucrative.

If the AI models can't consume it, it can't be commoditised and, well, ruined.
What else could creativity possible be?

The binaries that ship with Indigo install their own shared libraries to /usr/local/Indigo. However there are a number of cases where they do still depend on macOS dylibs (stuff like libSystem, libiconv, libc++). In this case macOS updates won't ruin your setup, because Indigo will ship with binaries that specifically work with the new OS.

Re: 2) if that works for you that's great. However a lot of developers end up using Docker abstractions (for very good reasons) such as Lando or Laradock which specifically don't attempt to replicate a production environment any closer than Indigo does. So as @Chrischen says below, use something highly productive for development, and use a clone of your Production Docker stack for QA. Arguably that's the only way to truly be sure your tests pass in your Production environment.
It's not resilient. It's worthless. The same grift keeps working on bigger fools and it hasn't been outlawed yet. Ergo, it stays and cycles from one catastrophe to the next.

This is the farthest reach I've ever seen someone make to state a positive about crypto.
China has the factories but they are hugely dependent on imports of materials and energy; technology from overseas companies; and overseas markets to export to. Throw in their demographics - which are less suited to manufacturing every year - and there could be serious problems for China on the horizon. I hope it leads to a more humane CCP.
They likely have backing of more than 50% probably more than 80%. Although how much is liquid is unknown.
Isn't the point of a stable coin is that it is always worth $1 each? So market cap is a valuation of $1 * total coins has gone down by $10B. So that means 10B coins were redeemed.
Since the valuation is steady at $1, that means the total amount of coins must have decreased by 10 billion. Since the only way to remove coins is to convert them back out to USD (ie, 'withdrawing') there is not much of a distinction there.
It's tether. It did briefly detach from its peg at USD $1 but the "valuation" of a coin has been roughly constant. It's $10bn out of originally $83bn, and it's still trading at $0.998 or so. So yeah, people have taken a big chunk of money out. That's called a withdrawal. We do not know that it is a cash withdrawal.
Well, if you showed that pixelated image to someone who has never seen Obama - would they make him white? I think so.
As a non-expert I've always thought the guidance for making any given crypto choice is "Use the one Dan Bernstein says you should use".
Next.js is very nice. One thing that always strikes a nerve with me though is that it goes against 12 factor. There is no proper way to build once, deploy (with config) multiple times. So either you have to build for each environment, which on kubernetes means building different container images (one for each environment). Or do a full re-build when the container starts, which means slower container startup, but at least you can re-use the container across environments and properly inline environment variables. There's a discussion about this; https://github.com/vercel/next.js/discussions/24010
Tether is stable coin. Number of coins is valuation. Each coin is always 1USD (unless they loose the peg).

So if 84 billion coins are there in circulation . 84 billion of dollars had been exchanged for coins . If the coins reduces to 73 billion then 11 billion coins have been redeemed back to dollars
I would suggest that it wasn't the gypsum that did the work, it was the tilling with organic matter, along with never letting the soil become exposed.

Stop building trash heaps with nginx!

nginx is a poorly written, legacy application with insane defaults, bad documentation, has shitty frameworks (openresty) and language integrations (fuck js and lua), and owned by a fraudulent company (f5).

Why the fuck does anyone use nginx these days? Because they hate themselves?
It’s a stable coin, so valuation is expected to be close to $1 as long as it works.
Dutch Police use deepfake video to try to solve 2003 murder of 13-year-old boy
Tether is pegged to the US dollar, so it's valuation (rarely) differs much from $1.

Therefore it's the number of total coins which is falling.
Another thing you shouldn't do in a severe storm, especially tornado weather, is get out of your vehicle.

There has long been this idiotic wive's tale about how you should get out of your car and take cover in a ditch or culvert or something.

That's the worst thing you can do. If the winds are powerful enough to pick up your car, imagine how easily they could throw a piece of sheet metal through your abdomen. Or pick you up like a rag doll. You would be much better off riding it out buckled into that steel cage.

Having grown up in tornado country, I have always thought this. But i finally saw some research confirming this from the university of Oklahoma.
> But I'm also trying to be careful to do proper threat modeling [1] so that I don't burn out, as the rabbit hole goes very deep.

I have never been applefied, but my exit from google and meta is also a statement (that I wish more people would do). Think of it as putting your money (or rather privacy) where your mouth is.

As nice there devices seems to be, they are never perfect either (see complaints about the keyboard) and it is fairly easy to de-Apple. The same is much harder for Google and in some regions meta, mostly of whatsapp.
Exactly. I would argue this is the only way you can be sure your code will run properly in Production.

I found that when I tried developing inside a clone of my Production Docker environment, I started having to change more and more things over time eg installing Xdebug etc that meant it was not the reliable test environment I hoped it would be.

Just the truthfulness and validity of the valuations.

The back and forth of these comments have helped clarify things. Thanks for your comments.
Yes - some sugar/recognition/appreciation could go a long way.

Imagine Organization A (i.e. non-profit organization) offers to accept your gift for $N and throws you a gala with you as the beneficiary.

Then imagine Organization B (i.e. the government) forcefully accepts your a gift for $N that you are willing to give regardless of the subtle implied threat of force because you are appreciative of what it does for you and your community but there is no recognition and parts of Organization B are bragging about how they are taking money from you/villifying you and actively being rewarded with promotions for doing so.

I'd imagine most would be more happy with Organization A.

And if one is firmly committed to a "soak the rich" outlook, you can just think of this as a way to massage their ego for free.
Since Tether is a stable coin™ allegedly backed by and pegged to the price of 1 USD.

So if the price is still $1 but the circulation has gone down by 10 billion, that means $10B worth of it has been cached out
I said in another comment of mine that I didn't care about it being cached. I wanted it to be there "cached" to be remembered. Like a fragment of data (my data) found that exists long after I'm gone.
