Well, it would be great when we wanted to get rid of those items. It would be less great when we wanted to preserve those items, like the massive amount of goods and infrastructure that are constructed out of plastic. The insulation on power cables, for one thing, would be bad if it started rotting.
One of the problems goes back to the reason cities are where they are to begin with. People settled where the farming was best. More people came to join them, the farms became settlements, the settlements towns, and the towns cities. Now all our best land has been paved and farmers are out trying to grow stuff on land that previous generations passed over as not sufficient.
> Regular savings account banks do typically do this, for example the bank has the right to ask for 7 days to honor a withdrawal

Source?

I'm familiar with savings accounts described as "instant access" or "easy access" where you can get your money out whenever you feel like it.

Unless the bank actually markets an account as a "notice account", can they really ask for 7 days notice?
> Far Cry series, Cyberpunk 2077, The Outer Worlds, the Dying Light series, and the Metro series.

Metro is about as on-rails as you can get? It's all "go down this one tunnel and shoot everything" or "follow this actually quite narrow and linear path across the rubble and shoot everything". Some of the missions are literally on rails (you're in a subway, after all)

Far Cry is much more open than Metro, and often has some quite fun things to do if you stray off the mission path and talk to the right person. Depends how much you like to hunt and fish amidst blowing up the bad guys!

Feigning empathy isn't a good definition of toxic positivity. A better definition would be:

> We define toxic positivity as the excessive and ineffective overgeneralization of a happy, optimistic state across all situations. The process of toxic positivity results in the denial, minimization, and invalidation of the authentic human emotional experience.

Confirming that I was able to run a webserver on my Nokia 3650 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_3650 back in 2004. Those were the days when T-Mobile USA actually gave you a public IP address! It was pretty awesome to be able to download photos from the phone via the web - even if only at GPRS speeds.

After getting covid last month (not vaccinated), it took six weeks for my resting heart rate to return to normal. Usually it is 45-50 depending on how much exercise I do during the day. After covid it was hovering around 55 for a month then finally went back to normal. Didn’t have any other effects.

>This is just about non-DuckDuckGo and non-Microsoft sites in our browsers, where our search syndication agreement currently prevents us from stopping Microsoft-owned scripts from loading

But this is exactly the problem. Sure, unlike Google DDG is not itself collecting data, and there appear to be limited tracking on MS properties, but unless I misunderstand the situation (a decent possibility) then the vast majority of the web, which are not MS sites, are still able to use MS scripts for tracking.

You are marketing a privacy-centric ecosystems of tools but your partner in one component (search) is preventing you from implementing that vision in non-search areas, so that should be clear. It should also be clear that it's still very much a search problem. The source of the limitation has search as a root cause, and a massive corporation with just as much interest in obtaining data on user browsing habits is still able to do so in some ways.

I admit this is still a better situation than Google, but you're providing an ecosystem of tools, they are inextricably linked with each other.

I don't have any proposed solution. I'm not sure there needs to be one aside from making boundaries clear. I still see significant value in your offerings. Partnering with a provider of quality search that solves some but not all privacy issues is still valuable. Each person chooses their own level of comfort & tradeoffs between product quality & privacy, and you offer what I consider to be a valuable middle ground in that range. But let's just be clear on what the middle ground is made of, though I otherwise do not judge harshly for an agreement like this.

Thank you for making great tools.
"Decentralization" something something!

Mostly it's just economies of scale. Who cares if 20% of the crop is lost to random soil related problems if you can grow ten times as much stuff in dirt than in a controlled environment. Land is so much cheaper than indoor farming.

However, I think the critical thing that is going to make indoor farming commercially viable will be water prices. At some point, the heavily subsidized water in the western US is going to finish collapsing. Indoor farming lets you milk every drop of water into product. We're talking 10:1 ratios of water usage between outdoor and indoor farming.

Currently, water to grow iceberg lettuce is about 12% of the total cost in California at $216 per acre foot. Currently it is possible for those rates to triple or even quadruple in the next few years. We may be seeing a lot more indoor growing soon!

Totally exciting!
gputils did an amazing job on the disassembling! There are labels, gotos and functions all laid out. Hardcoded and calculated values were added to the PC in many places like: "addwf PCL, F" In that case, add W register into PCL, and store value into PCL.

Trane had the original patent for computer controlled defrost: https://patents.google.com/patent/US4573326A/en In the first image you'll see a chart with different temperature "bin" factors. In one place in the code, the temperature offset from 32 degrees (freezing) is added to a hardcoded value and the PC then jumps into a certain spot in a lookup table. The values in that lookup table help determine at what "DT" (delta temp between outdoor coil and outdoor ambient) a defrost should initiate. In another location, a hardcoded value is added to the PC along with a loop counter.... On loop 1 through the code, jump to this location, on loop 2 jump to this location, etc. Kind of a strange way to code, but after buying different revisions on ebay of this board going all the way back to the early 2000's, and on top of the patent being from 1985, perhaps this was the norm in the 80's and mid 90's.
Will it be so well rounded like the ones which are comparable in price with the MX (e.g. Das, Leopold, etc.), so I can buy one and use without any tweaking?

If you "eat" a plastic for energy what's left is water and CO2.

Cutting a plastic into microplastics actually consumes energy, so there's no way they are doing that.

The atoms in plastic are just Hydrogen, Oxygen, and Carbon. (Chlorine sometimes, but rarely.) If you burn, consume, degrade, whatever you like, plastic, all you can get is water and CO2.

Not directly related, I've been really tempted by all these exciting new database offerings.. PlanetScale, CockroachDB, FaunaDB.. but there don't seem to be any solid (node.js) background job queue libraries that support them. I really want to take advantage of these low dev-ops high availability offerings, but I don't want to have to tack Redis onto my stack just so I can use BullMQ, with data persistence and robustness as a bit of an afterthought.

And I don't want to roll my own because it's not a trivial thing to solve, especially with stall detection etc.

I'd love to just have one robust data-store.

Am I missing something?

Terraform modules? In particular, https://github.com/terraform-aws-modules/ is a better solution for anyone looking for this IMO.

(Yes there is a comparison to 'terraform' in the Readme - I'm not convinced it's considering modules, versus just using the AWS provider directly. Another bonus of using tf modules over this: you can eventually realise you need to graduate to using the AWS provider directly, and do so quite easily (cf. `terraform state mv`).)
Thanks, I, in fact, did that already, so good to know it is setup.
curious what you mean by

> the type-specialized code is larger in code size, which can cause its own performance problems due to icache.

since IIUC you mean the alternative would be essentially non-reified types, so the icache would involve more frequent branches, thus blowing cache in general, even with branch prediction.

anyway i'm pretty sure i'm missing your point, so figured may as well ask.

There is no one AWS philosophy. The philosophy of foundation networking services is going to be different from higher-abstraction services.

They are for different customers with different needs.

That's certainly true.

I imagined it'd too impractical to bury them in case they need repairs, but apparently they're buried at least in some cases.

According to [1], a plough is dragged along the ocean floor behind the cable laying ship. The plough digs a trench that the cables are fed into. I can't really tell from the pictures whether the trench is covered back up.

[2] shows a really cool animation. Apparently ploughs like these can bury cables 2-3 meters into the ocean floor, and use a jet of water to help dig. Good stuff.

Seconded. I'd never heard of healthchecks.io and was curious enough to strip off the blog-related parts of the url to get to their main site (not totally trivial on a phone browser).

I almost didnt bother but I'm glad I did because it looks like a really useful service that i might have uses for. I'd assumed that it was a healthcare-related business tbh.

> What if the value of those assets is already below 1:1 because of recent market events?

My long-term treasuries are down well over 10% this YTD, in case anyone wants to know. So if Tether had say, $50-billion in 10-to-30Y treasuries at the start of the year, they only have $45-billion of that now.

There are serious market risks when you buy/sell Treasuries. Yes, they're among the safest instruments on the market, but rising interest rates and inflation are huge issues and absolutely wreck the value of long-term treasuries.
I don't disagree with that. I just wanted to advocate for something more like it here. Allowing more poor to be self reliant and sufficient through more equitable land ownership.

I'm working on the backend and the front end that consumes the data.

From the front end perspective it's really great. I like how flexible the querying is and how concise it makes the comm code.

From the backend perspective, I'm not sure yet how to properly implement authentication; I haven't yet touched mutability. It seems more complicated than REST, but I wonder if it's because I'm very new with this.

Ultimately I'm sure there are gonna be rough edges, but as a consumer it's a very pleasant experience.
I relate to the parent commenter (including their reply) so profoundly, it’s scary. The only difference is that I focus hard on finding the “right thing”; some missing piece of information, or a strategy, that will suddenly make everything “click” into place.

I’ve had periods of clarity and many more periods of extreme fog. My focus is so poor sometimes I barely feel like I’m present to experience life. But not being in control of my productivity is somehow the worst part. So much passion and so many ideas, but actually doing anything feels impossible.

I tend to have success with momentum. I am currently working at a new strategy from several angles. I’m setting myself up to have better habits for my health (sleeping, eating, moving) and hatching a non-mentally-ill alter ego who just does things and has the qualities I desire. Faking it until I make it, hopefully.
I've been doing something like this privately for my own picture library – because my backlog of pictures-to-be-geotagged is about 15 years, I don't necessarily remember all the details where exactly a picture was taken. Of course I could just drop the location marker in roughly the right location and call it a day, but pinpointing the location as accurately as possible is usually too tempting.

In the world of wild imagination - I wonder if we will, at some point in the distant future, have an ethical obligation to continue producing plastic to stop some species of animals from going extinct.

Or will it be an arms race where we have to lace our plastic with pesticide to stop everything from being eaten the moment it comes out of the injection molding machine!

Not likely but it is fun to have a few minutes of wide eyed day dreaming.

Edit: Another thought - perhaps next to my organic compost I will have a plastic compost where I layer old clothing, cellphone covers, food packaging along with some coal tar or old motor oil to break down into a bin of ... hell I have no idea what.
Combine this article with the other one about contamination of fruits and vegetables in Europe and we have a pretty bad picture of the situation:

European citizens have been exposed to a
dramatic rise in the frequency and intensity of
residues of the most toxic pesticides on fruits
and vegetables sold in the EU. This report
and its primary conclusion contradict official
claims that toxic pesticides use is declining
and that food residue levels are under
control. This report also exposes a complete
failure by Member States and the European
Commission to implement EU Regulation and
protect consumers.

> It sounds like the only way to do this is to create your own bank which directly integrates with the federal reserve

It is notable that Bitcoin took fewer years than both Google and FB to reach a 1 trillion market cap. Now market cap is a pretty horrible metric (and 1 trillion is arbitrary), but one way to compare totally different things. Note that bitcoin has always been the dominant cryptocurrency, and google/FB were dominant search engine/social networks much earlier than they reached 1 trillion market cap. What took a long time for them was for the market to value those innovations more highly. In crypto's case, the market valuation actually came quite quickly.

> The volatility of BTC/USD has only increased

Do you have a source for this? The data I have seen is that it is just slightly decreasing if anything, but there are many ways to measure volatility.
Some feedback on this idea from someone who works at AWS and has worked on similar tools to make AWS easier, such as AWS Copilot (https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/containers/introducing-aws-copi...):

The hard part isn't making AWS easier, it is making a tool which is both easy and flexible enough that a user can do what they need (within reason), then outgrow your tool and move on. In specific any tool based abstraction has the downside that if the only way to interact with your infrastructure is through the tool then you severely limit the options for a user to make customizations. AWS will add features faster than you can keep up, and there will always be someone who can't use your tool unless you have feature X, Y, and Z.

At that point you can either add more and more features until your tool becomes as complex to use as all of AWS itself, or you can draw a line in the sand and say "you have outgrown my tool, it is time to move on". When they reach that point you should try to make it easy for them to avoid having to recreate everything from scratch themselves.

For AWS Copilot we tackled this problem in part by adding a "copilot svc package" command which spits out a full CloudFormation stack for your application and all its infrastructure, so that you don't have to restart from scratch if you decide you have outgrown Copilot. Copilot will help you deploy simple Docker based container applications quickly and easily, but then if you have more complex needs you can "graduate" on to the next experience by exporting things up into a stable, productionized CloudFormation template that lets you customize the full range of AWS settings and resources to your hearts content.

I think your tooling will need something similar. The "outgrowing" section (https://github.com/nathants/libaws#outgrowing) is a bit weak right now, and that's what you need to really nail down for people to have the trust to start adopting a tool for serious usage. They need to know that once they outgrow the tool they will have a viable path that won't be a huge headache.

Otherwise I like your ideas here, and I think the YAML based DSL here is a fascinating abstraction of many common, simple use cases. Great job!
IMHO, today to many people think "don't have to worry about them" equals "don't need to know anything about it".
If it happens it's easily enough solved by using PVC instead. And interestingly most outdoor plastic, that's intended to last, is already PVC.

Regular non-chlorinated plastic doesn't last very long in sunlight, so it's already not used outdoors.
Thanks, that looks useful. Is this doing the moral equivalent of git log -S?

It is “independent from search” in the sense that people who just use DDG as a web search provider from any browser other than DDG’s own will be unaffected by this constraint, and will browse just as anonymously as if this constraint was not imposed. (Which is to say: as anonymously as their browser enables for them, with DDG not being the limiting constraint. Not so anonymous for Chrome; much more anonymous for Brave / TorBrowser / etc.)

All this constraint is doing is limiting the increase in privacy you get from using the DDG mobile app on top of the privacy you get from using the DDG web search provider. At worst, DDG searches in the DDG app will be no less private than DDG searches done in any non-privacy-enforcing browser, e.g. Chrome. Which is to say—still pretty private.

Also, I presume that only a minority of DDG users are users of the DDG mobile browser app. (I didn’t even know it existed!)
