Ha, we have annual passes to both.

I didn't want to bring them up because going for a day to the Aquarium is actually pretty expensive: 40 bucks per adult, 30 bucks for 3-11, and you're dropping another 15-25 bucks on parking too, probably.

But it works out great for us since we can get to either by bike or bus in 10 minutes, so we can go enough to make the memberships worth it (150-200 bucks if I recall correctly, it was my wife that made this purchase).

Also if you live in the city there are a lot of ways to score free Aquarium tickets (main one I can think of is the public library).
Because Germany is also where the one of the worlds first deep geological repository sites for nuclear waste was experimentally started in the 70s, in the former salt mine Asse II.

That thing was supposed to last for many centuries, yet after only a few decades it became such a huge environmental mess that it will take several future generations, and a lot of money, to clean it up.

Which is only one among the many reasons why nuclear fission was declared not sustainable, others include resource dependencies for the fuel and generally extremely high costs for everything, while operators refuse to pay their share for it in terms of waste disposal.

All problems that "pro nuclear" people regularly handwave away, often pointing at France to go "Look, they can do it!", when that's just completely ignorant of the actual state of the French energy sector; It's existing nuclear fleet is already heavily underfunded, it's also very old, as a result of that more than half of French nuclear reactors have spent most of this summer offline.

That is if they ain't throttled/shut down due to heatwaves making them impossible to cool.
C++'s current unwillingness to specify a stable ABI (or even state that ABI stability is a goal) but also have the standard libraries avoid breaking the ABI is a worst of both worlds currently. And the refusal to break the ABI adds overhead to things like std::unique_ptr which isn't really great.

Of course the govt can limit vehicle sizes, and already do, in both width and weight, at least, to fit the roads.

Within those limits, I think they should push for more environmentally friendly vehicles through taxes.

But not just fuel taxes, which might not give the desired incentive 'curve', and in any case still penalize even the most economical vehicles.

But directly; per kerb weight, per mpg, per co2/mile, etc, etc.

The title is about "thinking", not something that is actually likely to happen.
Some parties, without consensus, are claiming it would be a good idea. The people in charge say that this won't happen, because of material reasons.

The industry does not even want to run longer. It is technically feasible for some months. Legally, it is not feasible yet.

Cost/gains wise the some-month idea could make sense, but new certifications are needed, so perhaps only in times of rare energy this could be a profitable arrangement.

"I still haven't seen a production level numerical weather prediction app written in Rust.

All the time, it is Fortran the government uses for these apps,..."

I vacillate as to whether the best response is: "Who cares?" or "give it time"? First, if C++ actually is better for GUI apps, then more power to C++ (do you have some evidence this is the case?). That doesn't mean their aren't other niches to fill for other languages, like Rust. Next, Rust is a relatively new language. It may end up that it's really great for GUI apps, but again it doesn't have to be. It can be great at other things.
Apple reaches $50 mln settlement over defective MacBook keyboards
Seems like theoretical bears according to wikipedia:

> The location in which the capsule touched down was too dense for a helicopter to land and recover the crew. Leonov and Belyayev could have likely been recovered by a helicopter with the use of a rope and ladder or rescue basket but Soviet Leader Leonid Brezhnev strictly prohibited cosmonauts to be rescued with those methods. [why?] This resulted in Leonov and Belyayev spending a total of 3 days, two nights, in the forest before finally being recovered. The cosmonauts did come partially equipped for this situation taking a survival kit which included a knife and a pistol.

(Loving the why)

However "we went to space but our cosmonauts got eaten by bears on landing" would be pretty high on the "black eye" scale.

I have 0 faith that the US federal government in particular can put money to any good uses like they did during the New Deal era. Look at how much fraud there was in multiple states with the Covid relief money.
I think you're falling into the same trap.

Some things are not solved in the appropriate manner through a technological solution.

They are misuses (and abuses) of a perfectly acceptable system. Don't undo the system, address the misuse.

Take your example:

>Unfortunately, any declaration that relies on the first party will immediately be abused to hell ("All these tracking domains are controlled by me, so plz allow them!"), and we'd be right back here.

The only reason this is the case is because this misuse has zero consequences.

Make them declare their domains, if they choose to include tracking domains, fine the ever-loving shit out of them. Not the ".05% of yearly profit" bullshit - I'm talking 200% of daily revenue for the top controlling company for every day that domain was on the list after it was declared a bad actor. If the company can't pay? Fucking nationalize them, remove the tracking domain, sell it to the highest bidder.*

Watch how fucking fast these companies will scramble to fix the problem when the stakes are real.

When the stakes are trivial - it doesn't matter what technology you try to put in place to block this, they will just work around it.

* I understand this is ridiculously extreme, but I'm done playing with these fucks. We've had the gloves on for the last 20 years, it's time they come off.

Right, but the renewables are the one power source which is well suited going into the future. They don't use up any non-renewable source (hence the name), and they are the one energy production which is really available in most countries. All the others more or less depend on imports.

There was a brief window, mostly the 1980s and 1990s, where we had the nicer things, but the prices hadn't really gone up yet.

To use the Disneyland example, in the late 1990s, Disneyland tickets could routinely be had off-season for $20 and annual passes were around $100. Adjust that for inflation, and you're still at 1/3 to 1/2 of today's prices. But most of Disneyland's expansion and most of the really groundbreaking things were already in place.

Right, but make sure that all externalities are properly payed by fuel/road/vehicle taxes, so individual incentives are not distorted by not having to pay those.
Nuclear is dead in Germany. Postponing the shutdown of those outdated rotten reactors built in the 70s is not a strategy shift. If new reactors were being built constantly, those old reactors wouldn’t be in service anymore anyways because they are just too expensive and dangerous.
How useful is this in practice though?

I'd guess that far greater than 99% of the people using (most) products do not have perfectly color calibrated monitors. If it doesn't look good on the developer's "kinda close" monitors, that seems like a decent indication that the design needs to be updated to allow for "rougher tolerances" so to speak.
Programmers selling out is the goal in and of itself these days.

> but since they're heavily influcened by the Rust syntax, why not just learn Rust instead.

That's pretty extensively covered in the link, but here's a relevant snippet:

"Existing modern languages already provide an excellent developer experience: Go, Swift, Kotlin, Rust, and many more. Developers that can use one of these existing languages should. Unfortunately, the designs of these languages present significant barriers to adoption and migration from C++. These barriers range from changes in the idiomatic design of software to performance overhead."
No, it takes at least three years to build LNG terminal. Even if it take less than that it would be quite hard to reach the necessary supply by LNG carrier ships. It also requires the construction of new LNG carrier ships. It also requires new partnerships.
What meaningful limits does the US government put on size/weights of cars? A rivian R1T has a gross kerb weight of like 9000lbs, the new electric hummer over 10000. With the move to electric cars, especially large commercial ones, they will generally get a lot heavier as batteries plus motor is typically much, much heavier than combustion engine + gas tank.

A quick google says you can pretty much drive anything on a single axle in the US so long as its 20,000 lbs or less- thats so huge there might as well not be a limit...

I'm not a academic nor hobbyist but work professionally with JavaScript for more than 10 years.

I'm also "against" the constant syntactic sugar that gets added with little to no benefits, just leading to JavaScript having a large syntax.

Why introduce "classes" which are just sugar on top of existing syntax? Many examples just like this, where sometimes it feels like JavaScript has changes just to have changes.

Although I'm not gonna complain too much, many of the new features are more than just syntactic sugar and makes my life a lot easier. I just wish they were slightly more conservative I guess.

The government should tax/regulate things that have negative externalities, and the greater the externality, the harsher the restrictions should be.

Subsidizing smaller cars is a bad idea because they still have negative externalities, just less so. The government shouldn't be favoring driving a small car over walking, but that's exactly what a small (or electric) car subsidy does.

The reason we subsidize EVs instead of taxing gas-powered cars is because the latter is politically unpopular, not because the former is a better designed policy.

I went to a Giants game on Saturday and let me tell you they are underestimating how much things cost. The cheapest hotdogs were $11 + taxes and the cheapest beer was $12 + taxes. The cheapest and the saddest tickets still cost around $20.

Also, it’s been almost a decade since I saw a $9 movie. The only time I’ve had cheaper was when VC funded movie pass was like a thing for 2 months.
Either one is correct. Meaning is subtly different, but not much.

The source is pro-Solar and is not really objective toward Nuclear power.
One could be wondering why there was a big pushback against nuclear energy in the first place. Especially that it hasn't happened in the neighboring France.

Was it perhaps because of some hidden actors who pushed for the gas pipelines deals?

I can imagine, that the Russian influences in Germany hasn't magically disappeared after the fall of Berlin wall.
It all depends on when it happened. We evolved as a species and what was perceived as normal way less than 100 years ago would be considered outrageous by today's standards. As an example, if you take 10 highly successful Hollywood movies from the 1950s, chances are that in 7 of them a woman is forced into kissing the male lead; do it today and your career is over. And we're talking about people, not trees.
Back then we didn't know what damage we were bringing to the environment, now we do, so I think it's perfectly logical to call Bolsonaro a corrupt criminal while closing an eye on similar events from over a century ago.

I've wondered if some moving violations should have a vehicle weight multiplier. We police speeding and failure to stop mostly because those actions put others at risk. Heavier vehicles pose an increased risk, so maybe they should be fined at higher amounts?

Do vehicle insurance rates factor in car size? I would imagine that larger vehicles result in higher payouts to 3rd parties in collisions. Maybe it is canceled out by a decrease in payouts to the policy holder.
> in whole of Europe

was presumably the answer to that. Now of course one does need a proper analysis of weather patterns (wind+sun) over the whole of Europe over the long term to know how well it would actually work. But it is a fairly large area.

> Who wants endless nested promise chains?

Believe it or not, you can actually structure things so it's "flat" looking without async/await (or even without Promises for that matter, but Promises solve other problems too).

Just because someone argues against something like async/await, doesn't mean they want the thing async/await is supposed to address.
Energy and politics are intertwined. Nixon’s alcoholism and mental illness took him out of the picture, and really killed the more traditional “establishment” GOP; a new generation of “conservatives” was empowered and eventually took over the GOP.
