It sounds like(yet again) another US only problem. My induction hob here in UK is wired to run at 7.2kW and the last thing I would describe it as is "underpowered" - even with all rings turned on at max power, things will burn instantly. It's a vast vast improvement over a gas range, wouldn't be without it.

>>but I specifically mentioned hot water and dryer.

I've never in my life have seen a dryer that runs on gas. Is this a thing?

>> Heat pump do not work well for those applications

What's wrong with heat pump dryers? They are awesome, as long as you aren't putting them in an unheated space like a garage. They use much less energy than condenser dryers and considerably less than vented ones, while being pretty quick.
It's easy to forget that the com in .com is a shortening 'commercial' - i.e. a commercial enterprise. In Australia, (until relatively recently I think), a .com.au domain was restricted to registered businesses. For individuals, there is (was?) an id.au domain.

I meet new people fairly often, and if I just ignored these messages, the chance I'm actually being rude to someone I know in real life is fairly high. Now that I know the pattern I will probably be more circumspect about it.
> Why can't I just like a bad movie and not have to catch shit for it?

I don't know anything about movies, but I know a thing about wine, food and spirits.

A thing most people don't understand is that liking a thing != the thing is actually good and vice versa. A good critic always says enjoy what you like, and their job is aiding your way to find it. Often there are objective-ish criteria to judge a thing (e.g. balance or complexity in a wine). But nobody knows what you personally enjoy. If you enjoy the taste of burned meat, a medium rare steak may not be what you like, but you can't say it's not good.

Same is probably true for movies as well. Just because a movie is bad, you can still like it. And you can dislike a good movie as well. Those two things are not the same.
Issue Zero, it's possible. TIL.
Perhaps it's useful for 3rd parties trying to develop device drivers. Can read the code when they're wondering why something is the way it is
I thought this died about ten years ago.
In particular, the Voyager home page says that "USD" and "cash" deposits are FDIC-insured, while the debit card landing page talks about how you can earn rewards while "spend[ing] USD Coin like cash".

I can easily imagine a naive consumer coming away from this with the incorrect impression that USD Coin deposits, being equivalent to USD, are insured to the same extent.
What a feat! Great work, I use Flask somewhat often. I am not surprised they’ve managed to do this, considering how rock-solid the module seems.
"as safe as money in the bank"

I think you're conflating these defi platforms as banks, they are not - they are risk ladden investment platforms as listed on the website itself...

I also don't see them saying they are a bank, anywhere on their about me investor page:

"About Voyager

But I do see they link up instantly and have their own bank account setup under a "real bank" https://assets.investvoyager.com/5ykew4idKrAVhJIu

tl;dr don't call a bank, a bank when it never was a bank.
Hey, your resume link gives a 404 just FYI.
Uzi was my ISP when I had ADSL in Raleigh and was a pleasure to work with when I had issues with BellSouth's service. I was sorry to hear about his death.

The website was up just the other month, so this is a new development by his family/heirs.

That Nissan Motors didn't immediately grab the domain after his passing may be evidence that domain names are an inheritable asset? Any lawyers have info on this?
This is a pretty common scenario in South America, e.g. Argentina, Colombia, Venezuela and then you can look over at some African reasons and even Asia nowadays too - e.g. Sri Lanka.

You can also go as far as even the USA does this on money it deems "did a crime" or was related, or just in the proximity because the law enforcement officer said so. civil forfeiture.
It would be interesting to see actual statistics on this, because that doesn't match my experience at all. I was homeschooled, and went to a D1 state university, as did my siblings and numerous friends who were homeschooled. Both myself and one sibling finished with a 4.0 in dual majors. That same sibling went on to a masters program. I went on to an engineering Phd. The transition from grad school to corporate life was a bigger adjustment than high school at home to university. It just wasn't a big deal despite all the FUD.
We could just comment on the title...
I appreciate what you all are doing. We need people to try and really fix our Healthcare Industry. However, I do have a question. Are you trying to get rid of Insurance mafia at all for at least some things like basic preventive care etc because I am sure that drives costs up a lot if Insurance companies are always between a doctor and a patient. I really hope something can be done where I can just go to a doctor/hospital, ask how much and pay for it out of pocket instead of crazy premiums and all the other BS we have to go through everytime.
This is a false claim of equivalence: very different things are happening. A liberal education does not 'shelter' students from religion -- instead, they are more likely to learn about it critically, perhaps in comparison with various faiths and histories.

Personally I can say that I've learned a much greater depth about religion and spirituality outside of formal religious contacts.

Perhaps something about the organizational setup of religious-based and funded programs is counterproductive for skeptical minds who might otherwise be curious.
Code generation interactive demo (Salesforce Codegen mono 2B)
I've been a professional game developer for 22 years and have definitely seen the amount of toxicity towards developers increase sharply in the last decade. Interestingly, though, some have suggested that this is not a bad thing, per-se.

I believe it was a recent GDC talk where a Bungie dev who said something like "hate is only 2 degrees off from love." I think what he meant was, and I've heard this echoed from other developers, is that the fans are so emotionally invested and want you to succeed and fulfill their fantasies in the game that when you fail or things aren't quite right their love turns to hate in a blink of an eye. The theory is that you just have to listen to them and deal with their feedback no matter how rude it is and you can steer those 2 degrees back to love.

I think there's something to that, but also I think a huge factor is the Free To Play model and how it's encouraged massive time-sinks into games which can create cognitive dissonance when the player has finally exhausted their interest. If a player has invested 3000 hours of their life, which I suspect in many cases matters more than putting in $50 or $100, being bored might make them feel guilty for their behaviour which quickly turns to anger and rage at the developer for letting them down and failing to continue to entertain them. This cycle only gets worse the longer they play because it's increasingly difficult for one game to have enough to offer after such a long time and so they get more bored but simultaneously more bitter that they've wasted so much time on it.

Finally, burnout-rage is particularly bad for content creators which are serving a fan-base that's interested in a particular game. They might not even like the game that much but their add-revenue depends on an audience that wants to see content about it. I've seen numerous content creators go super-nova at the end when they finally break down and explode in bile (which, of course, includes performative outrage which is good for getting clicks too).

The joy of sharing has been driven from me too.
Sure, will do. However I can't help but feel a large majority of the posting on anything V is mostly flame war and personal attacks which is far more egregious than commenting on votes, and against the guidelines you linked.
How will a doctors profession change by tech in the next 10 years?
Medical students spend years studying the ins and outs of disease--every symptom and its possible disease. Humans are naturally not very good at probability, so it can be easy for doctors to overly diagnose rare conditions. With machine learning getting more powerful every year and digital health devices like Apple watches becoming more mainstream, I do wonder if the need for encyclopedic knowledge will decline, and that tech will become better at preventing disease than doctors are. Maybe their role will shift to being able to analyze the insight that ML provides, and not having to diagnose disease by symptoms directly.
Yea, i'd have to agree with you.

What i learned in school was how awful people can be. The extremes where we humiliate and torment others. The mindless churn to be in a clique and simply fly under the radar.

Slight tangent, but: In my view a parents jobs is to let children fail with a safety net. To be there and help them recover after failures are experienced together, to grow from them.

Public School, in my view, does none of this. It attempts to educate, sure, but not in socialization. Likewise parents, even the well executing ones (by my definition) cannot share the experiences. Parents can only see the aftermath and try to mend some wounds.. but the growth is up to the child, in isolation.

I don't know the better solution. I don't have the answer. All i know is that in the context of how i judge parenting, school fails entirely on. School is lord of the flies. Many prosper. Many drown. Many could grow, if only a guiding hand existed.

Clearly i'm a pessimist here. I'm also not having children, which may not surprise you. Hah.
If only FastAPI could achieve the same…
There’s some weird stuff out there with beans and nuts. One time my wife and I were moving from WI to NY and we stopped in a Denny’s to get some food. We order a couple of breakfast skillets and when she takes a bite of one she instantly spits the food onto her plate. I was freaked out because I’d never seen her do something like that in public. I’m like “What’s wrong?” and she says “This is poisoned. It’s contaminated.” I didn’t believe her so I took a bite of her food and it was fine. Then she drinks some water and spits that up as well. I try it and there’s nothing wrong.

Long story short I freak out and call her doctor, worrying she might be having a stroke or some other weird issue. The doctor can’t help, just says “Schedule an appointment.” So I call my old man who is an immunologist and he’s like “Oh wow, she can’t eat food? Says the water tastes like metal? That’s weird, let me think about this.” Then a minute later he’s like goddamned House MD, he says “you guys are moving right? Did you clean out your fridge?” I’m like “Well, yeah, of course.” So he says “Your wife is into baking right? You’ve got all kinds of shit in your fridge. When you were cleaning it out you didn’t happen to eat any pine nuts, did you?” I thought about it and then I was like “Yeah, we had a bag of frozen pine nuts and we both ate a handful of them.” He laughs and says “She’s got Pine Mouth, it’s a weird olfactory reaction to certain types of pine nuts. She’ll be okay in a day or so.”

I’d never heard of Pine Mouth before. And I guess neither had our doctor. Thankfully we had a drunk seventy five year old immunologist on tap.
I agree heavily with this assessment.

I think there is room for a framework similar to Phoenix LiveView but also allows compiling certain interactivity to the client. Next.js and Remix are kind-of fulfilling this but they have downsides.

In the BEAM ecosystem, I think there is room for [Gleam](https://gleam.run) to be used to compile to both Javascript and the BEAM.
Vanadium redox flow batteries aren't that new - the first successful ones were made in the 80s - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanadium_redox_battery

I hope they get the economics to work.

Also the longest duration flow battery in the Wikipedia article runs 10 hours. We really need something that can charge for months in the summer and discarge for months in the winter.

A few years ago one of my friends pulled a prank on another friend and made a fake craigslist listing for some truck with his info. I don't think his phone has recovered from the spam to this date. There must be a thousand crawlers combing every single craigslist ad there is looking for information to add to these databases.
It is — or at least was, before LLVM/Clang existed and before Apple's GPLv3 Eternal September — a good way for them to give away something with no actual strategic value as a preemptive ideological rebuttal against their own use of Free Software in their otherwise-proprietary products.
I love flask. I use restful flask on every project and I experimented with flask restplus and flask restx. I don't feel technically limited with Flask or it's derivative API frameworks.

Flask will always be my go to framework but I am looking forward to actually sitting down learning Fast API and Nestjs with Typescript.

FastAPI for my usecase doesn't offer anything new but the hype is defeaning and Typer CLI seems like a good way to build CLI projects.

and Nestjs is something I should learn because I should learn. I didn't enjoy django but I need to learn a "professional" backend framework and also Typescript.
So, I have a very nice synth made by AMS, the Hydrasynth.

It's not a modular synth, but quite the opposite... it's a digital synth which is more like a computer than, say, a minimoog.

It has a great UI and much of what it does it shows you very well.

Still, it has a massive modulation matrix, in which the 5 LFOs and the 5 Envelopes can be sent about anywhere, often controlling the 3 oscillators or the 2 filters.

And in order to actually see the 10 or so setting for each of those 10 modulators going to the myriad of places that they could go (and noting that you can route the oscilators themselves to various points) you have to have both some willingness to dive around the small menus or some knowledge of how the patch was created.

That's nicely facilitated by the UI which has a lot of nice buttons for quickly selecting element, but still.

By contrast, you can look at your modular synth and see the physical connections which reveal the routing of the patch. While there are all kinds of things that can hide the complexity such as normalized connections within devices or devices that have their own micro-controllers doing who knows what, the network of wires is, itself, quite a lot of information.
2FA scams are common on /r/Scams
I don´t think so, even more so in absence of any evidence. And I am not from the US.
The US had the biggest power the past decades and have used it to uphold a rule based world order. Be careful what you wish for.

Make no mistake, I have lots of critical things to say about the US. The war on terror was a stupid reaction on the rise of terrorism and extremism, for example. But the US has in general been a real good force for the world.

A recent scam attempt that made me nervous about potentially being compromised:

Someone sent me a very official looking “your payment for $370 in textbooks has been approved. Here’s your reciept.”

The thing is, it came from an official PayPal email address.

In reality it was a request for money using PayPal’s official system. They just filled the title and body with text to make it resemble a receipt.
You're correct, however most aren't going to pay the big cost to do that. A better way is to be able to either borrow a recovery unit or rent it. The other problem is training someone how to use the unit and then know what to do with the freon after recovery. Until it's made cheap and easy to recover, venting will continue to happen.
>It appears that lectins are degraded by heat, thus the importance of proper cooking.

I (and family members) have eaten copious amounts of sprouted moong and moth beans my whole life without cooking them. Just soak them in water for a night, then leave them alone to sprout for another day or two, and then eat them.

I walked by myself a quarter mile to kindergarten. I walked by myself to a bus stop through the rest of my school days until myself & friends started driving. Most of those years I came home to an empty house at the end of the school day.

Not sure why this is a big deal. Kids can manage on their own.
>Reportedly, one big reason used GPU prices are tanking is because crypto miners are flooding the market with cards that are no longer profitable due to the ongoing crypto crash, where the total market cap of all crypto assets has fallen by two-thirds since its peak of $3 trillion last November. (Miners have been switching away from GPUs for some time, though.)

What to do with all that computing power now. I guess AI.
Another place this pops up is documentation for processes in a business -- this could be a process for onboarding or compliance rituals or (hopefully not) deployment. Perhaps a business group has a process that is taught to new individuals who join the group through shadowing or song or dance, it is part of the folklore and rich and vibrant spoken cultural tradition of the group, but has never been written down. Then someone attempts to document it, and the result is confusing.

What if the process documentation isn't confusing and stupid because the author is bad at explaining things - what if the process documentation is stupid because the process is stupid and needs to be changed.

Another approach to this kind of thing is to reverse the sequence of "do it", "document it" steps and draft a rough version of the documentation up-front as part of an initial design, while it is cheaper to change the process or system, before work is done to implement it and roll it out.
It's the other people in the tontine. So don't let that list leak I guess?

That's quite funny if you don't immediately recall that North Americans talk of 'graduating' school...

Anyway, do you fit this in alongside working (not as a home-teacher I mean) through some combination of relatively hands-off assignments etc. and evenings/weekends, or does it only work because you don't?
Says a lot about hiring practices and systematic biases. Even small biases creep up and accumulate. I wonder if women are more likeky to hire tall men over short men? What about male hiring of males, does that have a bias?
It's not necessarily about severance; could be keeping unemployment insurance premiums low, too.
You're confusing section 215 of the "Patriot Act" - later on the "USA FREEDOM Act" (don't you love the names) with PRISM. The two are quite different spying acts. The USA FREEDOM spying is where the whole metadata only debacle came from.

From the Wiki which references the NSA's own slides, PRISM offers: "extensive, in-depth surveillance on LIVE [emphasis mine] communications and stored information" with examples including email, video and voice chat, videos, photos, voice-over-IP chats (such as Skype), file transfers, and social networking details.

One of the leaked documents is a training manual for spying on Skype calls, which are routed right on over to the NSA. It even had a technical support FAQ which includes issues like understanding why messages are being repeated - they're being synched to another device which resends everything, or how to most effectively spy on a user using multiple IDs. It was quite user friendly!

The entire scope of the NSA is really quite absurd. They even had/have spies installed in World of Warcraft [1]. It's all quite dystopic but it often feels like we're stuck closer to Brazil than 1984.

We did remote schooling during covid. Kids don't actually like it. I never thought I'd see the day when my child would wail about not being able to go to school, but that's it.

Also as bad as kids are with learning with teachers, it's usually a lot worse with parents. It's very stressful to, say, teach a child math. I think being in a group of others doing it gives them a little more grit.
