You imagine that hydrogen cannot be stored, yet we handle tens of millions of tons every year. Do we vent it and then gather it from the air when we need some? No, we store and transport it. Some is stored in underground cavities, places where we put NG today. Some is liquified. Some is in, yes, tanks at 700atm.

You can buy electrolysers on the open market, cash on the barrel head. Need more hydrogen? Buy more electrolysers. Where does this fail to "scale"?
That’s likely to change for the worst for Japan in the next year or two, possibly as soon as this summer.

They’re trying to defend their currency and interest rates at the same time. Already the Yen has taken a beating this year. They are at high risk of a huge economic shock.

They’ve been able to postpone it, but just like getting out of a bad stock trade, only the first movers can do it, which means others can’t copy the Japanese strategy. Also, there are tons of specifics for Japan, such as education, economic drivers, geography and supply chains that make it unique, so it would be even harder to copy.

Permissive forwarding rule leads to unintentional exposure of containers (2021)
I've seen a number of stories from places like r/QAnonCasualties (support group for people whose loved ones have fallen into the QAnon conspiracy) where people have deprogrammed their parents or family members by blocking far-right/conspiracy content via DNS or through the cable box parental controls.

The obvious questions of morality aside, my perception of those stories is that most of the victims are hopelessly addicted to the feeling being righteous and correct and part of something bigger to the point that it takes over their whole lives. They end up a husk of a person all for a fake cause. But what is interesting is that after you take it away they generally don't find something else to latch onto, they slowly go back to having hobbies and normal conversations and normal relationships with their family, friends, and coworkers.

This is of course all anecdata, but if Goggles are another tool for giving people their loved ones back I think that's worth weighing as part of the equation.
Google actually has this implemented for signing into Google with desktop Chrome and Android, but I'm not sure it's standardized yet. Ideally Google will make this mechanism usable with all WebAuthn-supporting sites.

(It seems like there's two different forms of this that Google has implemented. One form is done simply: when you log into Google, Google tells your phone to show a prompt, but this form is still phishable, because if you're using a phishing site while an attacker is proxying your login, they could still trigger it. The other form involves desktop Chrome talking over Bluetooth to your phone to verify what domain you're looking at. This method is immune to phishing domains like other WebAuthn authentication methods so presumably this is what they'd try to standardize. It does involve multiple moving parts so it's not too surprising it's not standardized yet.)
> I don't understand why authentication usually requires you to type in some 6-digit number from your phone.

Because it proves that the user logging in is in control of a device that they've linked to the account. When you add an account to whatever app you're using (Google Authenticator, Authy, etc.) what it's actually doing is receiving a cryptographic key that it uses to generate the 6 digit code based on the current time. Without that key, the proper 6 digit code can't be generated.

I don't know why you're downvoted. LibreOffice is the superior product and perfectly good, but this is a perfect expression of the mental image the two names evoke.

Not a downer at all! We're not a fit for everyone. We totally get that. We let the devs set their prices, and then have a standard premium benefits package because we believe everyone should have silicon valley level perks. We're definitely not the cheapest, but we're invested in a long-term relationship for both parties and not just a cost-savings play. In our experience, turnover ends up being super high with low rates. But maybe you found some gems! I hope it works out. I really believe there is a need and an opportunity for everyone. We're just trying to do our part to help in any way we can.

The gap between SI prefixes and their base-2 approximations grows as sizes get larger.

Electrical outages take out gas stations, too.

We have an electric car, and we survived a 3 day outage caused by a wind storm a few weeks ago just fine. That's because we started with a full battery, just like we do every morning.

OTOH, many people with gas cars had empty tanks and had to endure 4+ hour lines at the few gas stations that had electricity and hadn't yet run out of gas.
My intention was to point out an additional factor in universal taxpayer funded healthcare being a political football, which is

> The other option is pharmaceutical companies, hospitals, and doctors take a huge pay cut.

Bringing healthcare prices down is also out of the league of cities/counties/states. These things require federal action like increasing number of doctor residency funding or spots, reducing patent protection for medicines, or other measures to increase supply of healthcare.
This is the most painfully obvious feature they could have added to the product. Twitter is a massive distribution network with a heavily constrained format to distribute. Allowing more blog-like content formats to latch into the same established distribution network (instead of hacky threads which suck) is a no brainer.
> This is a fallacy that I often observe in engineers. We believe that our work is the one that brings value and all decisions should be made by people that do what we do.

And yet it does. At least, at tech companies.

> We also believe, that non-tech folks cannot understand what we try to explain. I also very often observe that many engineers have no idea of basic concepts that are required to run a business (and often, no interest to learn about them).

That's a very good point. However, my observation over the years is that great engineers can pick up business concepts (it's often a requirement to graduate anyways) but non-technical managers can't generally master engineering to the same degree.
I agree with you mostly, even though it's somewhat heartless and maybe too black and white. I'm from an area where this exact scenario is happening to a lot of home owners.

There is a point where I think it's okay to factor an unexpected large housing market increase into the equation. To raise a community's property tax unrealistically because a mass influx of buyers are willing to overextend their credit doesn't make much sense to me.

Also, I think this applies even more to our current situation and the fact that a lot of these communities had nothing to do with the politically charged economic decisions our politicians made with close to zero debate, and ultimately, the economic fallout it has created.

In my home state in the Midwest I have always thought a better way to go about it in the future would be to factor median salary and wages into the mix. That, along with an unrealistic housing market increase. I'm not sure what unrealistic would be defined as, but median value increasing 2x in five years is definitely unrealistic. At the very least things like this should be debated.
I say they are personal, because they affect the individual much more than anyone else. Of course everything we do is affecting society somehow, but that does not eliminate personal freedom. If it affects me more than it affects you, my opinion weighs more than your's and vice versa.

"Lee-bray"

I don't know if the French would approve of that pronunciation, but it's good enough for me and seems like an intuitively obvious way for me to pronounce it. The word looks obviously French, and monolingual English speakers encounter French-looking words often enough that it doesn't give many people pause. Just pronounce it like it was English and put on a fake French accent if you want to get fancy with it.

I won't say there is zero friction from the word Libre, but it's certainly much smaller than losing all the built-up brand recognition of OpenOffice, and even that is much smaller than the elephant in the room: the ubiquity of Microsoft Office and the trouble any competitor will have no matter what name is used.

I think people fixate on the name because that's the easiest thing to change. But changing the name would only make things worse, by once again wiping out all accrued brand recognition. Even if you ignore that and want to talk about a hypothetical situation where it was named something else originally, the project would obviously still be an obscure oddity in the global Microsoft monoculture.
I think the message is simply that Twitter isn’t that into you.

Twitter wants people that log in, and turn on their notifications. You’d think you’re good enough for them, you can provide them ad revenue too, but you’re just not their type and they don’t find much happines with you. Ultimately it’s not you, it’s them.
"I could have built this faster if we had switched to React last year" ok but roughly how much faster?

We can't even accurately estimate (ahead of time) how long it would take in the existing stack, much less in a different one.
In my previous company they used the strategy of hiring employees directly and through Astro. The truth is that Astro's experience is very noticeable when it comes to hiring quality talent. I think it ends up being more economical to have Astro, because of all the headaches they solve.

I'd recommend Rust even if just because the available material for learning it is really good: https://www.rust-lang.org/learn

I'm just recommending Rust in general, not over Elixir, because I've never used Elixir and have no experience in that area. Rust is a pretty easy language to love.

At a previous company, someone established a "rule" that every "new function or method" needed its own test. Unless you lucked out with a lax reviewer (like me!) , your code would not pass review if this wasn't followed. Meanwhile, there were basically zero integration or e2e tests. People spent more time adding and maintaining useless tests...

> that's often the wage differential between FAANG and the Small Co

I'm intentionally not including FAANG salaries here. Two things need to happen for that to be relevant - you a) need to be at that level, professionally and b) you need to have the disposition to work at a FAANG. I learned a long time ago that I don't have the patience for big-company politics, so it doesn't really matter to me what those salaries are; you might as well tell me I could make $400k if I went to medical school and became a doctor. It might as well be a different career path. Startups know that they can't compete with FAANG salaries; the only way forward is not to try.

> If you're having trouble hiring seniors, ensuring that you retain your existing seniors is probably step zero.

That's great long-term thinking - the issue is that people who refuse to post salary bands because "they don't want to hire people who are motivated by money" have a fundamentally short-term perspective.

It's harder to ensure a full tank of gas every day than to ensure a full EV charge every day.
As a Muslim, Islam's stance is quite nuanced. God does lay out rules that govern our world (called Sunan in Arabic, plural of Sunnah - path or way or method, etc.), and we accept causality in general. At the same time, we believe that God is the ultimate root cause of everything. If He wills, He can break these laws (e.g. we have the narrative of how Abraham Peace be upon him was thrown into the fire when he denied and destroyed the idols of his tribe, only for the fire not to harm him because God ordered it not to: https://quran.com/21/68-69), and nothing happens without God's knowledge or permission. This is why we have bases such as: https://sunnah.com/tirmidhi:2517

As you point out, we have had many Muslim scientists in our history that pushed the boundaries of discovery and knowledge. We're proud of our history and their achievements.

Most people driving cars don't need to be, just as most people smoking don't need to be.

The main point is that it's easy to be personally offended by a cigarette, but the real damage is caused elsewhere. Sometimes we need to step outside of our selfish, interpersonal bubbles to see that.
An active choice is better than a passive one, if only because it requires an effort, in that respect the explicitness is an advantage over the typical personalization.

It's been a year since prices recovered from the earlier madness & got back to where they were. It's not totally stable, but prices as I see them have been going slowly down since.

I personally have some Exos 16TB's. There's a decent price history available[1] reaching back to mid-2019. Make sure to tick on "3rd party new". These aren't going to be the best prices available in many cases, but it's reasonably indicative.

> So the only difference that I can see is that the Cheeseburger is more deadly.

Eating is a requirement for life, and there is no meaningful way to make a nutritionally complete diet available (especially at "feeding society without devoting your entire GDP to food production and distribution" scales) while making it impossible for people to gain unhealthy amounts of weight. It is fully a sliding scale.

Even the most pro-nicotine people can't argue that smoking is a necessary component of human survival.
I credit vaping to helping me quit cigarettes and nicotine entirely. The flavors were amazing and were a great alternative to cigarettes. Vaping allowed me to wean myself from nicotine over the course of about a year. Once I worked down to a 0% solution, I quit vaping easily - and I'm not the type of person that gives up habits easily.

Taking these tools away from consenting adults is morally criminal. If your main argument is "think of the children" I'm going to doubt your sincerity.

This is probably an unpopular opinion: it pains me to see the manufacturing industry decline in the US. I don't really mind paying $300 for a pair of shoes. Yes, it will be expensive, but then I'll just buy fewer pairs. In return, more people get decent jobs, or so I hope. And no, I'm not talking about just the so-called "low-end" manufacturing, but also the high end. Indeed, how can we even grow "high-end" talent if we don't have a place for them to start their career? The average age of workers in the remaining few ship manufacturers is well over 50. The cost of producing things in the US is just way more expensive than in China, even if we factor out labor cost. When covid started, both GE and BYD set up factories to produce masks. GE's assembly lines are semi automatic, if not manual, and their machines looked archaic. In contrast, BYD's assembly line was fully automated and shiny.

I mean, can a country as large as the US be really competitive without manufacturing? I just can't see how services and virtual stuff like FB alone can be essential.

Being that the vast majority of the public facing internet is ad driven there will always be some sort of leaning.

Allowing the users to choose their own filters will allow advertisers to actually read the market based on the the sites that are whitelisted in the filters instead of shotgunning ads at any website that claims to be relevant to the target demographic they can actually see the popular ones that users choose based on these filters.

its still targeted advertising, but abstracted one layer away from the actual user so that the targeted ads don't have to be as fucking creepy with all the data they're gathering on people. With the customer choosing what sites they want to see results from, the advertisers can stop wasting money on ad revenue for click farms that everyone hates.

its a better deal for advertisers, and provides a better end result for the user and some degree of transparency.

It can't make people accept inconvenient/uncomfortable facts, it won't solve any political problems. You can lead a horse to water but can't make it drink, you can point out any number of problems to a person but you cannot make them care.

edit- relevant to solso's comment about an active choice

The active choice democratizes the ad market allowing users to choose, instead of the passive route of allowing an algorithm to coerce the market.

That's a pretty low dose for a daily basis. A single cigarette varies a lot on how much nicotine it has but on average it's around ~12mg and most smokers probably don't smoke a single cigarette a day so 6-8mg is quite low.

This is a classic logical of error. Just because A implies B doesn't mean B implies A. Smoking tobacco is a form of nicotine consumption, but that doesn't mean you can substitute "nicotine consumption" any place you see "smoking tobacco."
This isn't really true without massive distribution system redesign. It could be true for individual homes with transfer switches that disconnect them from the grid if that's what you mean, but a peer-to-peer setup where your house is powering your neighbor down the street doesn't work without some substantial investment.
Sure, but I think the point is that EV owners are topping off everyday vs ICE owners don't fill up until they need to (maybe weekly or if it runs low, certainly not daily).
We have 10s of thousands of street lights using LoRaWAN amongst other things.

It’s very much being used! Just might not be that obvious.
As much as I don’t want to complain about all the new low level languages (it’s really cool to see so much innovation!)

But I can’t help but feel a bit overwhelmed with options, and I know very few will ever catch on.

At least D seems to have some momentum, but I have fallen into the trap before of learning new languages that die.

I want to learn one of these, but I want it to last!
I am sure many EV owners also woke to mostly empty batteries because they didn't charge them that night and other ICE car owners who just happened to fill up the night before. Not sure what advantage you see for electric here. Both need to be "fueled" somehow.

In fact you can fill an ICE car in a few minutes so you can have many cars per single pump. EVs require long periods of time at a dedicated plug that many apartment owners, renters, and others don't have access to.

Could you imagine the lines at a charging station when it takes 30 minutes best case per vehicle?
