> That is incorrect. Congress cannot broadly delegate authority to make rules with the force of law on the executive branch. Even liberals begrudgingly accept separation of powers.

DEA, ATF, FDA, OSHA, CFPB, CDC, EPA, and FCC would all tend to disagree with this assessment.

There IS a separation of powers and checks and balances. Congress even passed the "congressional review act" in 1996 which allows them by a majority vote to undo an agencies decision if they feel they've stepped too far.

> The reasoning of the Court is that industry-wide changes in power generation mix have sweeping effects on the country, and require specific authorization.

Again, the EPA is checked by both the executive branch AND congress through the CRA. Both of which are checked by the people.

Rather than apply straight forward and obvious rules that have been around for at least 30 years (Chevron deference), the supreme court has decided to take a politically activist route and instead decide cases based on their own political leanings.

You can predict, like clockwork, how the justices will vote on any case with any sort of political implication based on who appointed them. Isn't that distressing? Doesn't that signal that maybe there's a major problem here?

They are picking the conclusion they want to reach and writing the opinions that support those outcomes. They are legislating from the bench.
Oh, I totally get the argument to keep it full. Both the colder thermal mass and less cold air to escape make it considerably more efficient. I just doubt that the thermal transfer from the mass to the newer items is as significant as the compressor kicking in. After all, the compressor is going to flood the internal radiator with liquid far below the ambient temperature of the freezer.

> My LG fridge manual actually says not to put warm meat in my freezer, unless the thing has loads of frozen stuff in it.

That sounds silly to me. In my experience ice cubes freeze within an hour and meat within a couple hours.
> If we put economists in charge they'd have outsourced all food production because cheaper labor in other countries would be more "efficient". Which would be fine until some sort of famine, then those countries would just keep the food and we'd be stuck with "high value" products while starving

I am going to use this line from now on. Your whole comment is brilliant, BTW
> Yes, exactly, that is terrible latency if you want to use it as an input device.

Eh, yes and no. It's a lot worse than it could be, that's for sure, but there are a lot of major name game controllers that were sold for years and perform worse, yet a lot of players would never notice unless they did a side-by-side comparison against a good one.

For the use case, where the hardware it's controlling has an inherent latency measured in the many dozens to hundreds of milliseconds depending on which model and mode, it doesn't really matter. Likewise for the author's intended use case as a mode selector for an EV. A faster update rate is in all likelihood possible in the hardware, but when you're sharing a bus measured in kilobits per second with other potentially critical messages it seems reasonable to rate limit.
What happens if it simply becomes as populous as Arizona or New Mexico?
Exactly. I refuse to watch the imperialist propaganda vehicle known as the Marvel cinematic Universe.

It also makes no sense because it would be cheaper and easier to just ween California off the Colorado river which already passes through Nevada and other states in the southwest.

I think this is the easiest solution to the water problem there. You already effectively have a massive pipeline in the form of a river. Luckily, the state with coastal access has the highest water allocation for it.

> I for one am happy that unelected bureaucrats (who the voters have no way to get rid of) now have less power, and that politicians who can be held accountable now have to act explicitly to make big changes. Again, working as designed.

Politicians are held accountable for not doing things as well. In our current system whoever is in power is held accountable, even if they didn't do anything because they were blocked by our byzantine form of government. But the politicians who should be held accountable are the ones who blocked it. Do you view this as a good system?

Consider a scenario:

President Bob and the Do Something party are in power. They really, really, really want to do something. Everyone is yelling at them to do something! Something must be done! But the Do Nothing party uses some procedural mechanism, or their control of the cloak room, or the secret password written on the back of the Constitution, to keep anything from happening. The public doesn't understand the system, because few people do; all they see is that NOTHING IS GETTING DONE. The Do Nothing party is quite pleased to stick all the blame on the Do Something party. They don't enlighten the voters. Even while they block any action they go on TV and solemnly intone about the fecklessness of the Do Something party. They said they would do something! Look what they do when in power! So feckless! So the voters punish the Do Something party at the polls.

This is more or less how our system of government works.

Sometimes something needs to be done. But we can't do anything!*

* Footnote: this isn't strictly true. The Do Something party will cooperate with the Do Nothing party on those rare occasions when the Do Nothingers actually want to do something. The Do Nothing party will not reciprocate.
Don't you think it's telling that you're saying they can't afford it, meanwhile much poorer people are still having children and starting families?

The hidden catch in your comment is perhaps that they can't afford to have children and raise them in the way you (or whomever) thinks they should.

I don't think it's a fail for our species at all. I could agree to disagree that it's a failure of some of our current societies.
We urgently need to change the road safety goalposts. Deaths of people inside of vehicles have lowered, but the new larger vehicles are deadlier to pedestrians, and their "safety" headlights are blinding anyone not in the vehicle.

In a sense this is the market answer to the problem of incentivizing people to live in less risky areas. This is going to become increasingly important around the world, as assuming sea level rise there are many low-lying areas that will have increasingly untenable risk of flooding.

I remember being surprised a few years ago when some camera manufacturer (Canon?) showed the letter "alpha" as trademarked in one of their ads.

Though my understanding so far is that this works for trademarks because it only restricts the use of symbols as part of a brand, not their everyday use or use in other commercial activities - in contrast to copyright or patents.

So if I trademarked the color "sky blue", then only I would be allowed to use it as part of a brand, but it wouldn't restrict anyone from taking pictures of the sky.

Would that be correct?
I totally agree.

I would even go further and say, if you switch modern learning over to TT, say 6 hours a day TT'ing, then you get exactly what the author linked here: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8393543/

That's sort of ironic.

Learning is tough, and TT won't change the way our brain works. Or put another way: if it does, it is not in our best interest.

Housing values are strongly correlated with the local economy. By and large, the areas with cheap housing have weak job markets and low wages, and vice versa. Remote work may change this some, and it's great if you have the privilege of that option, but it is certainly not the norm across all workers.
I think a more charitable interpretation would be that they're highlighting how much work has gone into that area (web server frameworks come to mind), compared to how little work they've seen on cleaner techniques and language assistance for managing local state.

That's how I read it at least, reasonable interpretations may differ.
I don't think that's true, fees are not proportional to that. Fees compete for a finite and precise limited space in blocks. There's no limit to how high fees could grow in this competition, because only the 7 most lucrative transactions get mined per second.

I think it is vaguely accurate to say that fees and mining costs are linked, *however*, currently the coinbase block reward is a bigger deal. Example: most recent block https://www.blockchain.com/btc/block/743055 created 6.25 bitcoin out of thin air, plus 0.186 bitcoin from all its fees. In the future, when fees make up a larger share of this, miners will indeed start to get income from fees. Then, we will see an interesting dynamic where automatic difficulty adjustments and competition between miners entering and exiting the market will result in miners electricity costs aligning with bitcoin transaction fees. In other words, every unit of value that goes into a bitcoin transaction will result in that much value being spent by a miner on their electricity bill.
You can keep track of the IP address that you hear first announce a transaction. If you have enough nodes logging this across the bitcoin network, and someone connects a node running on their personal compute to the network in order to initiate a transaction, then you can basically have the location data for the person who initiated that transaction.

(There's a whole bunch of caveats here, but that is how it would work at a high level)

In many ways philosophy is the direct opposite of tik-tok. Lots of time pouring over challenging thinking and writing, it's not fun and sometimes not even pleasant. You stick with one thing for awhile, leave and keep coming back to it. Then you come across that one passage that, quite literally, can change your life. The one passage that really makes it all click and it sticks with you for a long time, you close the book and chew on it on for awhile, maybe days maybe years.

Tik-Tok is an endless stream of "feels good" that never sticks. If you don't like a piece of content for more than 1 second you can swipe and get a new piece. Tik-tok feels great, but never really will connect with you, never will leave you look up from the screen and thinking "wow, the world has changed for me".

Tik-Tok will, for this reason, never be a learn tool. Honestly even youtube struggle with this. Learning means feeling dumb and climbing your way out. Tik-Tok is about blasting you with fun facts and insights that make you feel smart. A controversial take, but this is my problem with 3blue1brown. 3b1b creates some incredible content, but my experience is it excels at making you feel like you're learning. But you aren't really learning, it doesn't stick the way that slow reading and deliberate practice do. The feeling of 'ah ha!' but with out the actual work that makes that 'ah ha!' real. Like taking a helicopter to the summit of the mountain and rejoicing with the people who climbed it.

In my previous job, my team used Teams. It was OK, but after a while it tended to bog down on my desktop; the web version was slightly better. Also, there'd be random disconnections, Teams would kick me out of a meeting just after I joined (a sign, perhaps?), or blips where I'd lose a conversation for a couple of seconds.

We use Slack at my current employer and I haven't run into any of those problems. Plus I like the UI a bit more. Not sure why, but Slack's interface just feels more comfortable to me.

I'm not quite sure what you mean - the Burroughs machines have full sets of display registers (hardware managed pointers to each of the stack frames that were currently in scope - Algol/etc had more complex scoping that modern C-style languages) - a stack pointer contained a lexical level (an index into the display registers) and an offset into that stack frame - there's a variant that's 'stuffed' (essentially a reference to a variable in a stack frame that's out of scope - based on the base of stack)

I think it's important to understand that it's not a C machine, doesn't have a linear address space in the normal sense

I never quite understand what I'm supposed to take away from articles like this. I mean, sure, life is objectively better than it was 30 years ago. And better still compared to 70 years ago. And heck, if you compare it to 500 years ago we're not dying of collera or living in a hut, so Go Team! Right?

Comparisons to the a bygone time that you can't go back to are pointless. No one is suggesting that things are 'good' now, or even 'acceptable'. There are significant, systemic problems that cause millions of people to live worse lives than they need to, so we still have a loooong way to go. I guess looking around and saying "It's not pointless. Things do get better. It's worth trying." has some value, but this sort of article really comes over as more "Stop complaining. You've never had it so good.", and fuck that.

From what I've heard it's exceptionally painful and expensive for US overseas territories like Marianas, American Samoa, Puerto Rico, Hawaii.
This thread is full of "market efficiency" versus "national security", but there is another aspect to it: "Many ships now fly under the flags of Panama, Liberia and the Marshall Islands — countries that allow ocean carriers to bypass a slew of safety regulations, labor laws and taxes."

Now, taxes are one thing, but it is likely the case that the whole world would be better off if those countries increased their safety and labor regulations. If you follow shipping disasters, you will quickly learn that international commercial shipping rates are kept artificially low by externalizing costs onto the crews, people exposed to the industry, and the environment.

It would also decrease the difference between Jones Act shipping and commercial shipping.

I recommend Assembly, specifically for classic 8-bit CPUs like the Z80 or 6502. Assembly is unique and fun and, if you go with the classics, the learning curve is shallower and you won't be distracted by the constraints of modern chips such as pipelining and power consumption.

Whilst I'm annoyed with overly political story-lines, it's not proven that this moves the needle.

I'd say streaming is the main culprit in combination with the professionalization of the series format. The big budgets go into series now.

Other than that, subjective as it is, there just doesn't seem to be many eye-catching movies anymore. I used to have big discussions with my g/f on which movie to go to, as at least 3 or 4 at any time would compete for that choice. Now we look at what's playing and cannot even find a single one that we would want to watch. It's all Marvel and sequels.

> [...] if the Congress wants EPA to regulate emissions the way they tried to do, all it needs to do is to pass a law explicitly instructing it to do so. Of course, it won’t, because there is no political will in Congress to pass this.

At this stage in the climate crisis, we really need to be focused on direct results of political actions. The majority of the US population wants regulations to fight climate change, and the consensus among climate scientists is that if we don't aggressively cut carbon emissions immediately, things will get really out of hand. Therefore, if the Supreme Court is reducing the EPA's ability to help this, it is both anti-democratic and massively harmful to the public good. It really doesn't matter that the EPA is executive overreach according to some document written 230 years ago.

Not really sure what the wedge would be for an online only bank.
