None of my note taking is amazing but I'm quite happy with the state of it.

Most of my personal notes end up in Google Keep as that has a bunch of nifty sharing/reminder/etc. features built in.

At work I take all my notes in a "diary.md" markdown file in a pinned VSCode tab. I started taking bullet-pointed daily notes to help remind myself about what happened the previous day to make standup meetings easier... it has helped tremendously past that too though, as I now habitually take notes for meetings and other goings-on as well.

To start, the basic process was:

1. Set up a diary.md file in its own folder, open it in my main VSCode window, and pin the tab

2. Set up a VSCode Markdown snippet for "td" (for 'today') -> generates requisite headings, with the current day's date and the first bullet point for note-taking

3. Set up personal private git repository in the diary folder so that my notes don't die if my laptop does

4. Set up bash alias "gpn" (for 'git push notes') -> auto commit my notes with some "automated macro commit" message and push to remote

5. Each year I start fresh and rename the old diary.md file by adding the year number to it and filing it away in the repo/archive folder.

If I'm working on a bigger project I'll set up a separate Markdown file in the same repo and make project-specific notes in there, while keeping the standup bullet points in diary.md - otherwise for message drafts or more general meetings notes I just add them under subheadings inside the day's "diary entry".

I didn't know there was a difference between the two!

> Asphalt is a mixture of aggregates and bitumen that needs up to two days before it completely cures. Whereas, Tarmac is a combination of crushed stone and tar that cures quickly.

> There is no need to wait months to build Single Sign-On (SSO), Directory Sync, Audit Logs, Privacy Vault, and other boring stuff that enterprises ask for anymore, now you could plug them within hours

Having had to rip out Auth0 and similar products and replace them with in-house OAuth/SSO solutions that actually work and can be fully customized at several B2B SaaS companies, I find this claim very dubious.

Also, many enterprise clients will want SOC-2, in which case you can't really ducktape things together. Everything has to be designed from the ground up with enterprise and security in mind.
Alright, then I guess I am better living in a non LGBTQ friendly place.

The interactions you are describing seem way too unnecessarily complex for my liking, I am mostly looking to reduce cost of living, having a few drinks from time to time and playing the occasional board game night.

Being lectured about critical race theory or whatever, seems exhausting.

I don’t think I am that much interested about why people are doing the things they do. So being « educated » without asking for it, seems annoying.

All in all, I agree with the project of OP, it’s a good idea that people who want to educate others can segregate themselves with people who are interested by being lectured.

> But there is a _HUGE_ difference between simply not having the capacity because the wind isn't blowing, and having to predict 12-24 hours in advance what the energy load is going to be. In the latter case its entirely possible to spin a nuke or coal plant up in anticipation of the need.

It seems like you think that no wind or wind comes as a complete surprise and that they don't use models to estimate the wind for the next day? How do you think the day-ahead prices are calculated? 1GW missing is 1GW missing, it doesn't matter if that's wind or nuclear. That mismatch needs to be accounted for.
You're armchair-quarterbacking events of forty years ago.

For the sake of discussion, let's grant your point: Jane Fonda and co. delayed clean nuclear energy by four or five decades.

So what? What do we do about it today? How does that help convince the holdovers that we can actually make and run clean nuclear power plants?

(Just to be clear, I'm not against nuclear energy. Especially, I'm really hopeful about molten salt reactors and (eventually) fusion power.)
Technically, they're not. The SUVs that this article complains about are also technically not "cars". They're classified as trucks under many regulations.
One truly fascinating aspect of rocket engines I read about is the
acoustic engineering of gaseous thermodynamics.

The combustion chamber is a resonant cavity, a Helmholtz oscillator,
and burning fuel in it sets up a standing wave that would shake the
engine to pieces within seconds.

To counter this the fuel is modulated in anti-phase to the chamber
pressure. Basically rocket engines are giant noise-cancelling
headphones.

The runway is outside though. I've never heard of runway melting in the hottest and most humid parts of the US.
In the early days, even just a humble farmer might think you're a space alien, or worse, an American. When Yuri Gagarin's flight re-entered he ejected and landed a little off the target zone. The first people who encountered him were perhaps a little apprehensive?

> A farmer and her granddaughter, Rita Nurskanova, observed the strange scene of a figure in a bright orange suit with a large white helmet landing near them by parachute. Gagarin later recalled, "When they saw me in my space suit and the parachute dragging alongside as I walked, they started to back away in fear. I told them, don't be afraid, I am a Soviet citizen like you, who has descended from space and I must find a telephone to call Moscow!"
> I'm usually a Keynesian, but in this case, i think we should jack up interest rates and deliberately tank housing and asset prices, then use large scale infra investments to stop the unemployment rate rising too high.

I am mostly with you, but “deliberately crashing housing and asset prices” is political suicide and I don’t see it happening. Interest rates are a good start, though.

Also, I think that considering the current labour shortages the risk of unemployment getting out of control is limited.
The alternative is trusting all shared links, which is currently what Google does. Third party cookies have nothing to do with it. Having some form of revokable authorization to be able to click on links from a person is superior to "all sketchy links working instantly."

If you get a Google Drive link by someone claiming to be a friend you know, you could download malware right now, because Google trusts all of these links equally. With this mitigation in place, you would be stopped: “hey, this isn’t someone you’ve ever received files from before.” Because they aren’t actually your friend using your friend’s account which you’ve received files from before. It would add a serious obstacle to a lot of these impersonation attacks, and I see impersonation attacks all the time.

My comment awhile ago said that this mitigation would be nice regardless of whether Google kept using their separate domain or not.

It absolutely doesn’t provide a new attack vector. It strictly serves to reduce the attack surface, not to increase it.
>I'd rather go to a state park than Disney lmao

Same here, even as a kid I preferred the state park. I've never been to Disney, but I've never liked theme parks. I do like water parks though.
It should include both far-left and far-right perspectives to show people full scale of the range of opinions.

Otherwise it is creating information bubble by excluding far-* or whatever.

I get the popularity of that form factor, but I simply don't believe that many people are hauling yards of soil or towing boats.

2 Seats + 6 Foot bed seems like a winning combination in practicality, but is quite rare in the US.
If I'm pitching a product or open source item, I'm not linking it to Gab. I don't want the baggage associated with it to cast a shadow over what I've worked to accomplish. It's completely unrealistic to throw out some charitable and benign reason for folks to have that in their top X platforms.
Especially in areas like psychology or sociology, where studies over the past few decades are more likely not to be replicable than they are to be replicable. Compounded with the disgusting state of pop "scientific" "journalism", it's probably a better heuristic at this point not to believe most scientific news to be correct.
Dryden is the same person who made the "90%" loss claim. The key part of that paragraph is this part:

he has appeared to blame the problem on microplastics

Because Dryden owns Dryden Aqua, a water treatment/filtration company. And its interesting that he makes bold claims like these, and places the blame on something he stands to benefit from, assigning lesser blame on what we know is likely the larger impact on plankton loss (global warming).
How old they are? And seriously, an apple and maybe small sandwich or crackers should be enough for kid for three hours.

Except babies, kids don't need full mean every three hours. Few fruits + something and definitely enough, no need to buy food in place.
I really dig this; I always have a need for background music while working and the context switching is really bothersome! Maybe I can finally ditch the youtube music sub and just support your project.

Actually, I've been thinking to write my own for baroque-era music-- those rulesets are well-enclosed and have all kinds of tricks for escaping resolution. Perfect for long D&D sessions! :D

Do you have any communities / resources you go to for inspiration for your work?
Yes 100% i'm working on making it so you can add sources you want. Also going to most likely add the ones you mentioned as default sources. Also I didn't think about your 2nd point but I like it going to add to my todo list
I think our favourite one is about Moshe asking god to win the lottery. You may have already heard it. It's very old.
It just makes it sound like you want it to be exclusive doesn't it? How many black people are going to feel comfortable in a 'white friendly place'? It's kind of 'you don't belong here' in the most explicit but not threatening way possible.

If I (white) saw 'black friendly cafe' or something, I don't have a problem with that to be clear, but I would absolutely assume that I'm not exactly welcome, that it's intended to serve that community - as in perhaps even specific to a particular country/region people are from (or have heritage) locally.

If what you want is actually a hyper-inclusive mix, I don't really know what you can actively do, but I do think you need to not mention any particular groups or categorise people like that.
I saw the efficiency/performance claim a bunch of times now. How is using a cookie over say the same data embedded in the requested URL or transmitted as form-data supposedly more efficient? The server still has to check the auth, no matter what part of the request it extracted the auth data from. Or am I missing something here?

As for security, yeah, there are some good reasons for not embedding auth info in the link (tho one could still POST the same data instead without a third party cookie, etc), as well as for having a dedicated domain for user content.
At least they "think" that they're maintaining their status. Check back at mid-century when things _really_ start to fall apart and see where the US and those who control it are.
Cool never thought through this threat model fully, thanks!
France is also spending a large fortune to replace most but not all of its current generation capacity. Largely due to cost overruns and delays and aging plants. This will blow the costs of German solar + wind installations out of the water.

Its reactors are getting old enough that their capacity factors have declined - in 2020 down to 62%. This isnt much ahead of the capacity factor of the best wind turbines (57%).

Theyll be in just as much shit as Germany this winter as nuclear output is projected to fall still further. Why people are giving shit to Germany for not following their model mystifies me. Theyll be lighting up the coal too.
Hey now, nobody said anything about reading French! ...I think. :P
The very odd thing is the assumption that of one did not bought cola, there is nothing to drink. I used to carry bottle of water and quick snack in case, it is not big deal.

Yep. Language is hard. Queer is absolutely a reclaimed slur, and comes with all that baggage, making it either political, fine, or too heavy depending on where you live.

In general, I don't mind queer folks calling me queer, but I really bristle when I hear cishet folks use it.

> I suspect that the author (authors?) wouldn't disagree at all with "use Rust when possible, Carbon when you can't"

That is in fact explicitly stated on the Carbon introduction:

"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."
This is a low-value comment that doesn't add any value to the conversation. GP explicitly asked "Please elaborate on what other "version of capitalism" is necessary." which this comment does not attempt to answer, the language used here is unnecessarily abrasive, and the "assumption" this comment claims was made by GP doesn't actually exist.
I can believe that some employees of these companies are genuinely shocked and surprised that this is being done, but few will refuse to do it, and fewer still will quit.

The sad fact is that our surveillance society was built with the willing cooperation of countless developers for whom money was far more important than the privacy of their users.
By supporting intervention in Ukraine Germany lost an export market, and are now facing an even worse energy crisis. They will effectively have an energy tax on everything their industry produces.

If they didn't support intervention, I assume they would have faced even worse consequences from allies.

And the German delegation to the UN laughed in Trump's face when he confronted them on their dependence on Russia.
Indeed, "vector" appears to be relatively recent terminology, it has been "array" since the dawn of programming. But it's too late now, and we already have the std::array anyway...
Most of them will starve beforehand anyways.
I am not sure if this is sarcasm or not but in case it is Not:

No it's not a solution, Netflix already heavily uses IPv6 and most sane v6 endpoints will not be NATed. Maybe they could use v6 Subnets as an Identifier but this would be wonky at best.

This would be a support ticket pandemonium since there are more than enough providers with dynamic IP adressing on v4 and v6.

But to be honest I think they might not need all that, more likely is they use some sort of device ID the modern Smart TVs already have Baked in or build some hash of their own with some device specific identifier (size, resolution, manufactuter, User Agent).

The article and information out there seems to imply they're primarily targeting TVs and devices that are used with TVs (SetTopBoxes, AppleTV, Firetv, Roku et al). So it makes no sense to use a device type unspecific Identifier like the IP in any way

You don't get a swarm just because you deploy multiple missiles at the same time.

>One could be wondering why there was a big pushback against nuclear energy in the first place.

Fukushima incident had a big impact on German public opinion. Even at the time it was a obvious over reaction from the Germans.

It's about both actually.
>Is there such thing as a moderate-right social media platform?

I mean the knee jerk response for me is Facebook, though I’d say it’s solidly right overall and not moderate-right.
I've only ever really used Azure, so I would say I'm more on the human being side. Cloud platforms are large, complex things but that doesn't mean they have to be terrible products that people dread using.
>Germany is already the largest electricity exporter on the planet

This is not relevant, again, unless it would be impractical to install more transmission lines.

>renewable share

Using the wrong statistic is not a good comparison, what matters is the fraction of fossil fuels. The classification of "renewables" here is crafted to specifically exclude nuclear while for some absurd reason permitting hydropower (which is terrible for river ecosystems).

If you invent a metric specifically to support your ideology, it supports your ideology. However, it doesn't convince anyone who is paying attention to the facts.

>it's extremely questionable how Germany gets constantly blamed

It's not Germany that is truly to blame. It's the anti-nuclear movement which is to blame, and Germany is just one of its many victims. However, this movement led Germany to make bad decisions recently, and those decisions can be criticized specifically, regardless of what else was done.
> What about the externalities of that transaction?

You’re entirely right, though for now I am indeed going to wave my hands and argue that it was a first-order simplification, and that externalities do not turn it into a zero-sum game :)

In the grand scheme of things, yes, lack of foresight is going to bite us in the backside.
It's not stealing if it "fell off the back of the truck"...
Let me add, my understanding of the 2 major things people complained about at the time are (1) extending Java with access to OLE/COM/DCOM (2) extending IE with ActiveX (which is OLE/COM/DCOM access in the browser).

It's always seemed like to me like both of those as the natural thing to do as an engineer. Microsoft and Windows users had 1000s and 1000s of OLE/COM/DCOM libraries. A new system/language appears and gets popular. You want to use all you existing software and solutions with this new system/language. So you find a way to make them interop. It requires zero malice to decide to do this. Irregardless of if it benefits your company it is arguably the most common sense and natural thing nearly any engineer would do.
It's a bit of an exaggeration, but it's close. If you count all Google's C++ code base (google3 + open source) it's fairly close to one billion. If you count regardless of language, I believe it's ~3B.

Don't you think that maybe everything built to be as cheap as possible to barely survive the warranty period is maybe a slightly larger effect than tin whiskers?
Also old appliances typically contained less things that can break in the first place: What doesn't exist cannot break.

It's just a function of cost, do you want to engineer your device/machine to last or not, and are more features more important to you than reliability.
>That's literally true, though?

There's no Schrodinger's Burglar. You've been robbed once I take your wallet, whether you've discovered it or not.
Yes, definitely.

I've just been very confused once I am in there how to run a proper debugger. All those commands (:debugger.start()) "work" but they don't provide me with a step debugger that I'm used to (or at least don't make it obvious).

Do you use them in that way?

I just tried again to use :debugger.start() from within my IEx session, and couldn't figure out how to even load up the source code. Seems like it operates more at the erlang VM level and not at the Elixir/Phoenix level? And, pry/break seems nice, but does not let me step through, only set a breakpoint and then inspect the state then and there.

The REPL is amazing, I don't mean to downplay it!

But, I've yet to find a simple debugger for Phoenix applications, am I missing it?

Yes, in other words: the darker a thing is, the darker it is. Is someone here actually suprised by the everyday phenomenon that dark objects get hotter than light-colored ones?

(Edit: I apologize for the uncalled for smugness. But "albedo" is not some special physical quantity, it's literally a measure of how light/dark colored a material is. "Alba" is Latin for "white". Although granted, albedo is usually measured across the whole spectrum, not only the visible part.)

I think the fear of failure (of something we really care about) leads us to procrastinate and find diversions. I think "In order to do my passion X, I first need to do Y e.g. earn some money" is often just a distraction.

The brain does this to us because if we don't do X we can continue to believe that we'll be successful at it if we do do it. Whereas if we do actually do it, we might fail, which will be hard to take.

If you find yourself thinking in that direction, I think it's always better to just go ahead and do the X if at all possible. You'll fail, you'll learn, etc.
Sorry for not being clearer. I wasn't suggesting that the stock price dropping was an MAE. I was suggesting that the thing that caused the stock price to drop could arguably be an MAE. That's the whole point of my comment — there would be an argument about causation between the revelation/accusation, the stock price, and anticipated impact on revenue (as a sibling commenter pointed out).
