What happens if you set this up and then something (like a comet or asteroid) suddenly knocks those bubbles out of L1?

I assume that Earth would heat up more rapidly than ever in human history. This would be especially bad if we keep on emitting vast quantities of greenhouse gasses in the meantime.

Seems like a misguided idea to me, and one which wouldn’t solve the root cause of our climate problems.

Good question.

Keep in mind that this is only Thomas who is publicly stating this position.

The basis for Obergefell is much broader than what was just overturned with roe, and so I would consider it on firmer legal footing than roe was, alito alluded to as much in his opinion.

At the same time all it takes is 5 votes to win a case, so who knows.

That's an interesting take on balance. Although, the determination, not to speak of the will, would usually add to a sentence, the plain damage taken as base-line by some meassure, whereas the individu prospect of future damage is a priori limited by the hope that measurate judgement will deter, because you shan't condem future crimes before they happen.
It sounds like you're making an argument for slowly decreasing the aerosols from fossil fuels, so that we avoid the risk of termination shock, rather than an argument for adding more risk to termination shock by adding space bubbles.

This is why I always use fs.readFileSync or correctly implement the callback and read it sequentially myself as it feeds me chunks of the file data buffer via the callback.

You can also use TypeScript and await on the promise which is super clean, highly recommend it.

"Fighting siege warfare" means that both sides can expect to "win" by doing nothing and sitting in their defenses. It's unclear if this really applies to WW1 Western Front.

Perhaps Germany was in a position were it was happy to sit in their trenches and just endure, but France was not. France had to be able to compel Germany to come to terms and restore French territory (which we should also remember contained a good chunk of French industry). While the blockade of Germany was clearly effective, it's not clear to this day (and certainly would not have been clear to the western allies at the time) if the blockade alone could have compelled Germany to terms.

And certainly the western allies DID attempt to strategically outflank Germany. It just... didn't really work.

WW1 generals understood sieges. They generally understood what fortifications could and could not do. There's a reason the Belgiums kept building forts. There's a reason why Germany built ever bigger artillery. WW1 generals got to see the Russo-Japanese war 10 years ago. They got to see a 6 month siege of Port Arthur. They got to see the ridiculous causalities that modern weapons could inflict. But they also saw something - the attack WORKED. The costs were awful, but the Japanese achieved their goals.
Rolling coal is not a statement of "f-the system" in northern new england like it is in southern new england. No need to "own the libs" when the libs aren't making the rules that govern your life.
I do not think this is coincidence. Von der Leyen was practically kicked out German government because she was not able to control procurement for the German military. Now she repeated the stunt with the procurement of vaccines knowing she faced no consequence last time she simply let evidence of incompetence disappear. Her qualification is literally that she was born in Brussels into a Eurocrat's family.

Your assumption is fair given the industry has been trending towards 'more' as a way to be 'better', without understanding how things scale, how development isn't the same as a manufactory line and multiple types trying to pawn their arrogance off as others simply not "understanding it". I'm sure you can relate with many anecdotes where mentioned bad assumptions were sold as ICs being faulty rather than those in charge.

'More' meaning in every non-technical context. More paper, more communication, more heads to count, etc.

I think this is a trend in most European countries, to be honest. It’s all bordering on corruption, and on the EU-level, transparency is typically worse than on a national level.

Our prime minister in NL recently got away with using a Nokia 3310 to circumvent SMS retention laws, which could only keep a history of 20 messages. Of course, he cannot remember anything important he deleted. His excuse was that only this particular Nokia provided him with worldwide coverage.

'Cmon. "MIT" didn't propose this. A group of researchers affiliated with the Institute proposed this.

It's an idea. Not a budget request. Let's not blow it out of proportion.
It's actually surprisingly close. According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Roman_wars_and_battles, there were 21 Roman wars in the 2nd Century BC. US count (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wars_involving_the_Uni...) for the 20th century AD is 31, but you also have to factor in the fact that the whole world is much more connected, and that the Roman war-and-intervention count was almost certainly limited by communication and transportation abilities of the time. In the context of the ancient world, 21 wars by one state in one century seems like an enormous number. The Achaemenid Persian empire, which existed a few centuries prior and was very expansionist for its time, averaged perhaps 6-8 wars per century, depending on how you quantify wars (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wars_involving_Iran).
The average time between when a gun is bought from an FFL and subsequently used in crime is something like 20 years IIRC. The person who bought it new could more often than not easily claim to have sold it years ago, and passed through countless intermediate owners.

> The US has just done far worse.

How many people have been killed in US wars vs. the Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution?

Remind me where the US has implemented a concentration camp of about a million individuals based on ethnicity alone and then continually denied its existence against overwhelming evidence from the international community.

Which foreign companies did the US use spies to steal foreign IP from during peacetime and also categorically deny?

Oh, and what's the name of the US system that censors wrongthink in real-time from all US-based social media, or the name of the system that controls US resident access to the internet?

What were the names of a few US citizens whose families were threatened if those citizens didn't stop badmouthing the US and returned to their homeland?

How many companies and people abroad did the US threaten with economic repercussions if they didn't stop claiming that an island nation wasn't just that?

And where's the paid army of anonymous internet commentators that the US uses to astroturf foreign websites?

--------------------------

The US, while having done a great many bad things, at least has a democratic process - there is the potential for the citizens to positively affect their government's actions, weak as it might be. China doesn't even have that - it's a tyrannical dictatorship, full stop.

Not to be hurtful about your project Ribbon and other similar projects, but companies rewarding their employees with NFTs is a bad idea. People like being treated fairly and they like meaningful benefits, like health and wellness, and of course being adequately compensated. NFTs are hardly fair or meaningful.

I don't say that you should not experiment with the market, but I'm questioning if that's even the point. Projects like these are being pumped out in this space hoping to luck into some temporary craze, but I see a lack of care, not polish, but a lack of interest in making something useful for actual people. I really question the usefulness of crypto in these projects. It's putting the cart in front of the horse, most of these projects would be actually better without it.

Well, you're describing a scenario where you didn't really need a big team. So it stands to reason that if you have a bunch of people who want to participate--while you theoretically have more knowledge and insights to draw from it's not surprising in the slightest that can be overwhelmed by communication/discussion overhead in a tightly time-bounded situation.
I want the EU council to hand over many of its powers to the parliament and commission. (I’m fine with the parliament itself proposing and voting on the commission head, I’m not in favor of a directly elected head – but that’s just the German in me speaking where the federal government is set up exactly that way.)

It‘s the national governments standing in the way of that, not the EU itself.

> Is it legal? Maybe not. I'm not necessarily concerned with whether transfers are legal or not. From my point of view the most important property is that transfers of value work.

Work that through, "it's illegal banking infrastructure, but it works" and you assume that it's a) legit, not a scam, and b) it's going to continue working long-term despite being illegal. How is the appropriate regular going to fit in, or not? IDK why you have not joined the dots.

If you're saying "but we don't have those, so.." then you're implying that better non-crypto solutions do exist in the world. Crypto is yet another attempt to "use technology to solve a social problem" that is best addressed another way.

We do know we’ve had mini ice age as a result of "Grand Solar Minimum" [1] (in addition to volcanic activities) which means reducing the solar output does reduce surface heat.

At this point we need to really focus on taking action an approaching this from many facets. As cutting of greenhouse gases alone will not work. It requires the entire globe (at least the G20) countries to invest in such endeavors.

You can’t expect a majority to understand, much less accept, the probabilistic systems thinking required to conclude (and act on) dedevelopment.

Ambitious (and probably also clueless/disbelieving) ideologues will spin junk food narratives that move the masses.

> a lot of good slight of hand also falls into the category of the method being amazing.

That's true but when slight of hand is amazing it's usually amazing in a different way than the OP's method. At the highest conceptual level, the "secret method" of most sleight of hand can be boiled down to "You hid something in your hand." At least to other magicians, uniquely good sleight of hand is amazing due to the insane level of skill and years of rigorous practice required to "hide something in your hand" in a way that appears impossible.

While developing the OP's method did require amazing effort and serious engineering skill, someone else could then perform with that method without the same unique level of technical skill.
PowerPoint has been iterated over the years to be more or less a document publishing app that happens to go full-screen. It has support for lots of embeddings (like Excel), and can help turn especially heavy chunks of text into something slightly more digestible – Smart Art is good at this, in fact.

Conversely, Keynote was and remains an app designed for visually heavy presentations, so it optimises a lot more for aesthetics: gradients, blends, transparency, (sadly still no blur wtf), animation of items on a slide, very complex animated reveal and build, complicated slide transitions, etc. It has also UX optimised for visually precise layout (in areas PowerPoint is frankly unhelpful).

If you just want to make people look at pages after page of charts and graphs that should have been memos, PowerPoint is good and possibly stronger. If you want to make an aesthetically compelling visual presentation, Keynote will get you there for less effort.
Um, they are paid in terms of their productivity. However, it's not how productive they are as a programmer, but how their work translates into business value.

While measuring programmer productivity is not trivial, measuring the value of the average programmer on the revenue generated is much easier. For this reason, an average programmer at Facebook will be earning a lot more money than a great programmer at a small regional bank.
The usual expensive boondoggles most of these shill organizations pretending to be think tanks and expert institutions come up with.

I really don't understand your comment -- can you clarify? Gasoline thus has about 100 times the energy density of a lithium-ion battery. [1] I'm not sure of the numbers, in terms of electrofuels, but I'm sure they're similarly skewed against battery storage. I'm not sure how 50% vs. 30% efficiency of an engine plays much of a role in this.

This is great!

As a developer who didn't learn via a scholastic setting, taking the time to sit down and learn a bit of assembly was something I see as a critical point in my career.

Starting with a high level scripting language, my brain had a hard time dealing with so much abstraction and taking what felt like a crazy amount of axioms as given.

I took a few months to sit down and go through the excellent book Programming From the Ground Up. After doing some bit twiddling, writing a basic allocator, and a handful of the other exercises from the book, I felt way more prepared to handle abstractions higher up.

Anything that I couldn't infer based on the underlying knowledge was something I could google, then quickly form the missing links between starting from the bottom.

I feel like learning C could give the same benefits, though I do hear some struggle with pointers, and in assembly you get to look face first at what they actually are. Everyone has different levels of abstraction that they're comfortable with as well. Assembly was enough to fill the seeming void of knowledge that I felt was holding me back, but for others it may be higher depending on which aspects are puzzling (memory management, intermediate representations, etc).

I also appreciate how much information modern VM authors publish about the inner workings of their platforms. It helps a lot in the same manner to reason about the systems (v8, JVM, CLR, etc).
Synthetic is the right word. They are trying to package and sell authenticity. I just went to the website of the development. Sorry, the “village”. They’ve even got a “street food festival”.

Unfortunately this is the way of the world. This is a major redevelopment and has cost hundreds of millions of pounds. To do it they take on huge investment, the investors expect a return so obviously they’ve built fancy shops, restaurants etc.

I understand that there are places where redevelopment has been handled more sensitivity but this area in particular has needed an enormous outlay to convert it such a primate area.

Hopefully within a few years it will start to gain its own identity and start again.
Theoretically, maybe, but I believe the devil lies in the details: implementation is where "biological hardware" if you will is more akin to a thousand specific sets of TPUs whereas we're trying to brute force / shoehorn the whole processing into a suboptimal one-size-fits-all giant RNN. The inadequacies and inefficiencies of such a shoehorning of the model's execution might (I argue do) absolutely self-defeat the endgoal of a coherent adaptive machine. I'm tempted to humorously say #NotAllParts (need the same underlying hardware optimizations) ;-)

Shower thought that just came up: observe that while we're endlessly chasing a bigger-than-reality String Theory, actually working physics implemented in real-world machines follow the specialized approach of one partial but perfect theory for each category of problems. We build hybrid, because as far as we can tell, reality is variations, and the biological probably most of all. So in trying to build a being…
