Actually they have raised (a round lead by Sam Altman) $500M to demo net electricity by 2024.

Then their plans are to have a factory to build 20 50MW-generators per day. Each generator is shipping-container size.

what confuses me is... take median household that makes about $67k/yr in America

median implies that's about 50% of the working population and below household wise, right?

if they are having to pay more for energy/rent/food, they're "struggling" more compared to when CPI was lower, right?

so... where is all of this excess demand coming from? exclusively from households that make more than $67k/yr? i wonder where the threshold is. obviously high networth individuals aren't affected super adversely by high gas prices. i just don't know what has the higher impact on "demand" (demand for what honestly, i have no clue):

millions of lower networth households

or

more concentrated higher networth households

Whoever thought that I’d want to edit a word doc in a frame in teams is insane. I’m not sure the use case where anyone wants to do that rather than launch Word or launch a browser.

It’s so dumb as it has a limited subset of functionality and takes over my screen from a meeting and only opens one document at a time.

That and if I try to link to a document it links to opening the document in teams. It’s so bizarre.

I can’t imagine the Teams team dogfooding Teams. Or perhaps I can and it’s some schizophrenic bizarre group who thinks it’s all intuitive.

It kind of reminds me of how crazy the Steam client is with it’s crappy browser stuff. But at least they have links working properly.
"“You’re looking at 1000pcs of the STM32H7 microcontroller. The beating heart of our beloved S2400,” they note. “I placed a panic order for these babies almost 2 years ago. Today, they finally arrived. It looks like we’re a go on the next batch of S2400s!”"

...and there's at least part of the problem. People panic-buying a year's worth of component supplies.
As a late 40-something I've recently had to start using readers. I went to the optometrist and got a £70 pair which I broke within the first 6 months. After one or two more pairs I thought - fuck this and just ordered a cheap pack of 5 readers at the right strength for a tenner off Amazon.

For 2 quid a pair, I treat these now as disposables and I've never looked back. I use the microfibre cloth + breath method to clean them and this works well.

But having 10 pairs of specs lying around at work, in the car, at home, etc was the best call I ever made.

Granted my prescription is standard - if I had astigmatism or similar it might be different, but for those who just need readers this is a no brainer.

Flat earth is not harmless. Like many conspiracy theories, it posits an "evil controlling organization" that for some reason (usually to hide god?) is able to direct the entirety of the earth towards its goals.

These kind of conspiracy theories, if you are willing to keep asking questions, almost always blame "The Jews". People pushing these conspiracy theories are, whether they understand it or not, pushing the ideas that 1: You have zero control over your government and cannot gain any control, 2: Science isn't the goal of many science institutions, and instead they are merely mouthpieces for this global cabal, 3: This global cabal even has the power of fooling your own senses, like many of these believers would not be swayed if you put them on a rocket and let them see the earth from space. These people are prone to dismissing strong evidence with hand wavey excuses like "oh virtual reality" or similar.

I would argue the point of these is to push 1: voter apathy and general detachment from the ways society can be changed and improved through their effort, 2: anti-science and anti-intellectualism sentiments, 3: "You can't trust anyone but us", 4: "The Jews" bullshit

> The drastic move to organic farming is puzzling.

That's because it was a desperate response to a currency crisis.

They couldn't pay to import fertilizer, so the government trotted out the absurd idea of using domestically produced fertilizer.

The whole "organic" thing was a red herring to dress up what was a last ditch attempt to compensate for gross mismanagement of the economy.

Unfortunately, a lot of politically motivated folks have bought into this narrative--either deliberately or unwittingly--and are using it to attack sustainability initiatives, not recognizing that they're falling for simple propaganda (see cloutchaser's comment in this thread for a good example of that).
In order to make it fair, you would have to hobble every test taker to use pen and paper.

You can (in theory) run Linux straight on Apple Silicon. It's not locked like the iPad and iPhone. The M1 Ultra would be a pretty solid high volume server if you can manage to plug a 10-40gbps LAN dongle into it. I believe USB-C and/or thunderbolt connectors like that exist.

In theory so far because I'm not sure if there are mature installers and such yet.
If society can do something about the Incel complaint it will be able to do something about systemic racism and other intractable problems.

OSS/Self-Hosted alternatives for EcoBee smart-themostats/sensors?
Hello,

I would like to purchase a smart-thermostat and wifi sensors; however, I would prefer if they don't have microphones/radar, and don't require connecting to the internet (LAN is fine).

What would you recommend?

Thank you.
Thanks! I understand your point about there being a ready supply of great talent.

My question was more along the lines of, how long does it take a good engineer / programmer, who hasn't developed synths in e.g. the last 5 years, to become highly productive?
Likely true, none of the other recipes on that site seem to have a number after the slug.
Rinse under the faucet with medium-warm water to get any dust/grime off, then dry using medium pressure with a hand towel size microfiber cloth. That's all you need to do.

I use the cloth for a couple months and then toss it. They're never the same after being washed, and they're cheap enough. I bought a 24 pack for $7 on Amazon in 2017 and I'm still working my way through it.

I've had this pair of glasses for about 4 years and they're perfect.
Police will fight the release of basically any information that sheds a light on their activities. In many states, there are no publicly available statistics on things like how much SWAT teams are used, and what for. When some states tried passing laws to require PDs to capture such stats, police unions pushed back hard.

I'd say all three of those cases are a bit different from each other and from law. Schools do make a difference for doctors but you still have an MD (or whatever) and can probably earn a pretty decent living in the US even if you went to a lower-ranged US school and aren't a total hack. Yes, academia is pretty status conscious. Engineering (especially software) is more forgiving. The common wisdom around law is that if you can't get into a better school and ideally get a prestigious clerkship, it may not be a great professional choice.
Yeah, it's totally just like all of these no-degree developers, except when there's a failure in your lawyering, you might get sued, disbarred, and also get jail time for being incompetent in addition to potentially ruining someone else's life, or at least wasting a lot of their time.

No they won't, because fabs are long-term investments and anyone who onshores because of this crisis will be fucked over when things return to normal and their costs are suddenly many times higher than the ones of their competitors who stayed in China.

Re-onshoring requires massive, permanent subsidies from the government to be a realistic proposition, and it is far from clear that we have the will to do that.

It's difficult to overstate how bad things have been for the past 1.5yrs. Automotive and Industrial microcontrollers and components in particular are impossible to source. I have a friend at one of the big US semiconductor companies. His team exhausted their main competitor's evaluation boards stocks on various sites to strip them for components to populate their own boards (which are hand delivered to selected customers). For non-critical applications they're using grey market Chinese components and even Chinese clones of some of their less complicated parts. Even then it's far from enough.

ASML, who makes some of the most advanced products on earth for semiconductor manufacturing, have apparently purchased washing machines to harvest components. [1]

The easiest solution I've found is to use a Zeiss lens wipe; at this stage the lens is already clean so you don't have to worry about pushing dirt around on the lens, and the alcohol on the wipe evaporates quickly and cleanly.

A better solution is to keep a clean microfiber lens cloth that never comes into contact with anything except freshly cleaned lenses to dry them. Unfortunately, for me it's tough to keep one that clean for very long.

A worse solution is just to use the relatively-clean inside of a t-shirt. All three methods have their place IMHO.
When it comes to sensors and latency, you can use a 200mhz cortex m3 with a bespoke runtime you write in a couple weeks, or you can throw a real OS on top of multiple Ghz and cores in order to make up for the overhead of having a real OS.

SRAM running at 200mhz with 1 cycle latency can perform what looks like miracles when placed side by side with DRAM running at LOLWTF Ghz that is stuck behind 100 cycles of delay talking to the CPU that first tries to work its way through multiple steps of onboard cache and lookup buffers and all sorts of fun things.

Embedded controls can do stupid amazing things with very little resources because all of a sudden you have removed a huge constant delay from all memory accesses.

Throughput, however, they don't do so well on throughput. :-D

As much as I hated Skype for Business it was at least reliably terrible.

Teams has a habit of silently logging me out even though I’m using it in a call. Stuff will just stop working because it decided it needed to reauth me without prompting. So I’ll be in a meeting and screen share will stop working or chat will stop working until I shut down and log in. Of course the top right profile still shows me logged in, but it lies.

It was real fun trying to figure out what was happening there. I found out because multiple people had IM’d me but Teams wasn’t showing me the messages. It was saying delivered to the sender. When I restarted I had a stream of new, unread messages.

The unreliability is the most frustrating part. How can the app lie about delivering messages?
I spoke in detail about onions which is not dismissive, who cares if there's a food I don't like? When I was young, endives were bitter, that's why we ate them. Lamb was gamy. Now they've been made mild so more people like them, but at the same time there has been a loss of the foods that I loved.

they have them individually, but I use a lot and bagged is cheaper

"Growth & engagement" is the main issue. Insane amounts of money are wasted on advertising, marketers, software engineers, etc not to mention subsidies to undercut their competitors and secure a monopoly.

Food delivery is a viable business but only if the objective is truly "food delivery" and not "growth & engagement at all costs".
Really late reply but exactly this. I said 13 because this was an article about highschool, which for most people starts at 13.

Though, with that said, I don't know what is the youngest age I could generalize it with. Depends so much on the maturity of the child and also how far where you live is from the bus stop. But I think it is safe to say that age is equal to or less than 13.

I'm out of my depth here, but I'm under the impression that synthesizers just don't work that way. My source is a housemate of an old friend, whose profession was restoring a certain sort of mixer popular with house DJs, for whatever that's worth.

Analog synths, at least, just won't sound right if components get swapped. The TR-808 was discontinued, and replaced with the 909, because a critical component went out of production, and it wasn't possible to deliver the sound without it.

It's the difference between a wood shortage for a cabinetmaker and for a luthier. A cabinetmaker can use mahogany where he would use ebony, a luthier is out of business if she can't get certain woods until she can again.

This could be totally inapplicable to modern synths? I wouldn't bet on it though.

> Even if it's just an IQ check, I would want my lawyer to have a high IQ, social Darwinism or not.

You can have a high IQ and be terrible and memorizing and regurgitating a bunch of facts and figures. I've seen people who were literal geniuses fail tests that others who were... lets say, 'very much not geniuses' passed without a problem because they were skilled in cramming for a few weeks to get their certification even while never having a real deep understanding of the subject and pretty much immediately forgetting everything they "learned".

IQ (for what it's worth) is more about being able to figure out what's in front of you than it is having a great memory for numbers, trivia, dates, or laws and past legal cases.
It's bonkers to me that the drivers can see the tip before they accept the delivery. Hell, weird that they can see it before the delivery is completed, even.

Tips are supposed to be for good service! I know they've been perverted into more than that by a combination of unscrupulous business owners and the US's broken tax code, but... c'mon. These services shouldn't even ask for a tip until the delivery is complete, let alone show the amount to the driver before they accept the job.

(I'm fine with them asking for the tip as a part of the initial checkout, though, since I imagine many people won't remember to revisit the app post-delivery within the tipping window, even if they did want to leave a tip, and that alone would unfairly take money out of drivers' pockets. But the tip should be adjustable for some amount of time after the delivery completes, and the driver shouldn't see it until that time expires. Amazon's grocery delivery has this right.)

If drivers can see the tip before accepting the job, then it's not a tip: it's a competitive bid that the customer makes for delivery drivers... though if your theory is correct, it's already gamed into uselessness.

If you've already gone to the length of defining your DTO with 20+ typed fields including comments/annotations etc., why should you need to duplicate it between CREATE and PUT types?
PATCH is probably the trickiest one to do cleanly - while I've used the model of "re-use the CREATE type, but all fields are now optional" in the past, I wouldn't actually recommend it, and probably promote proper JSONPatch format instead, the only real disadvantage being that it's a harder to manually construct the request body, which isn't something you should be too concerned about end-users having to spend time doing.
Paying 30% is worth it to not have to go and get the food for many people.
>so... where is all of this excess demand coming from?

It's not new demand - it's less supply.

Less goods coming from overseas due to labor and delivery costs, less oil due to regional conflicts, and less workers due to an imminent demographic tightening are all converging to make it harder to get things on shelves.

Prices will continue to rise until demand is crushed (by us or supply/demand) and we settle in a new, temporary optimum of worldwide complexity.

There's not much anyone can do about it.

If you want to buy something nice, expensive, complicated, and which takes an international supply chain the door may be closing.
