Maybe we could build out the ships, the battery factories, the dockside equipment, the new generation capacity and the grid upgrades at the same time?

Is it really a problem that the dockside equipment doesn't exist if the electric boats don't exist either?

We'll all feel foolish if we turn round in the year 2050 with a global fleet of electric container ships ready to go and then we start arguing about who was supposed to build the sockets to plug them in.
the pine phone has end user replaceable firmware for its LTE modem. there exists an unofficial open source alternative for the official firmware (which incidentally has vulnerabilities that quectel seems to be unwilling to patch)

Strange that he says this, because the original "Good Parts" principle is that you can use the "good" subset of the language.

No matter how many new features they add, that same "good" subset is still there ready to use due to backward compatibility.

> Browsers should not load fonts installed in the operating system

Already in the works, and some browsers don’t today (eg Safari). They permit the default system fonts (eg Helvetica) but nothing more from user space.

In the future it will be a permission you grant a site: https://wicg.github.io/local-font-access/

It’s a great move. The benefits of local fonts are negligible and the downsides are clearly enormous
I had a TeamViewer subscription for a few years. Getting it cancelled when I elected not to renew it was tedious and difficult.

I don’t recommend TeamViewer anymore. My opinion is that they are janky as hell.
That would just result in a trivial tax for personal vehicles and high taxes on heavy trucks (which would just get passed on resulting in more or less a consumption tax, which isn't necessarily bad but that's outside scope for here)

Additionally, despite a lot of people saying they want to use taxes to "handle externalities" or some other sort of "pay per usage" type manner like that what they actually want is to tax people who are on the fence between bus pass and used cheap car solidly into the bus pass camp and taxing for road wear would not accomplish that.

Additionally, when it comes to all forms of public infrastructure there's a common good argument to be made for a tax that's effectively very flat. The whole point of government funded things is that we all kick in a little and then all can use the resulting things as much or little as we want and that this low cost per use has societal benefits.

Edit:

For these kinds of activism driven discussions it's generally accepted that road wear is correlated to weight ^4

cyclist -> 100 ^4

(very) compact car -> 1000 ^4

electric hummer -> 5000 ^4

medium duty commercial truck -> 10000^4

Pick what you think is a reasonable bill for any one of those and then compute what the resulting bill for the others would be. Even if you want to do variable rate monkey business you're gonna have a hell of a time overcoming the whole "^4" bit.
Ok, but you're still the one who said

> There is no difference to me between one that doesn't want to support crypto-related issues and one that doesn't want to support issues coming from a minority.

So whether you're a crypto user/investor is quite irrelevant to the point being made.

Also I didn't read it as telling you that you're a crypto user/investor, but more as a "crypto users/investors have this kind of mentality too".

There have been devices that used 8.8.8.8 no matter what your network said. Now, you can obviously make your own 8.8.8.8 for your network, but good luck also supply proper TLS certificates for the encrypted DNS traffic.

Yeah, you _still_ can tweak this and you _still_ can configure that, but it’s getting more finicky ever so slightly every time. “Still” is the key, to hint at how volatile it all is.
Facebook’s ‘Cunningham Memo’ Released by House Antitrust Committee [pdf]
The format to the world championship in chess has historically always been a point of contention, and the current format is no exception.

The Candidates tournament has some seemingly arbitrary qualifications that players must meet, and you could argue that the format doesn't necessarily produce the strongest player to challenge the world champion.

The World Championship match itself is problematic because it gives the defending champion a fairly huge advantage, in that they retain the title if they can draw out the match, although more recently it goes to rapid chess tie breaker rounds. So in practice the Championship is decided by these tie breaker rounds, which doesn't really seem appropriate.

Given the prep time players have and the engines available, players go into these matches extremely well prepared and draws over the board are quite a typical outcome unless someone makes a mistake.

I believe Magnus wants the Championship to become a knockout tournament to reduce the advantage that so much prep time can give. There is a big difference between prepping for a field of 12 players versus prepping for a single opponent.
Git-GC-all-repos: Script to trigger Git garbage collection in all repos
I said this in another comment recently about git, but I find it odd that even after a decade of using git as a mandatory part of my professional life, I'm still learning new things.

That's maybe not a good sign about the usability of git.

That `@{'3 days ago'}` thing? That's incredible. Why didn't I know about that 8 years ago? Why wasn't it obvious, intuitive to me that this was possible?

git is brilliant and I love it. But there are very few affordances that make it obvious what to do next, what is possible. There's few patterns in it where I can apply what I already know.

The thing that replaces git will have most of the power of git, but an intuitive interface that makes learning everything about it easy.
I have "business class" service from a provider (Canada - Rogers), which came with a "Clearnet" router/wifi combo that has, LTE failover. (Cradlepoint)

And - of course it was locked for admin - well - not for long, the technican who installed it gave me the password after we chatted for awhile. Admitedly, I cannot change the PW he gave me, and at some point if they remotely update it, it will stop working.
In the mid-80s I had a Scout from the mid 60s. It was the most basic vehicle you could imagine. Everything was operated manually. The roof would come off, if you unfastened about 6 bolts. I think it had about 4 instruments, including the gas gauge, which did not work. (I'd check the gas level by opening up the gas cap and rocking the vehicle to listen to the sloshing sounds.) Still, you could fix most anything with very basic tools.

I wish VW good luck. They currently have a reputation for complicated, fragile vehicles so sort of the opposite of my old Scout. Maybe the change to an electric drivetrain will let them move closer to their spiritual ancestor.
DNS-over-HTTP/2 was a step back in efficiency, but with HTTP/3 (QUIC) things finally fall into place. We have UDP back, and it's with proper encryption built-in.

There is not that much overlap between skills required for chess and StarCraft. Being good at one may perhaps correlate with having some natural talent in the other, but experience in the specific game would matter a lot more.
> what would it take to convince them that dark matter may not exist?

Just a better alternative that fits all the evidence. The problem is not scientists stubbornly hanging on to their pet theories and refusing to accept alternatives (though obviously they do have their pet theories), it's just a downright weird area of science.

Dark Matter is preposterous and unintuitive. It affects gravity just like a lot of mass, but it's totally invisible. We have no idea what it is or how it formed, but the majority of mass in the universe is somehow dark matter! Obviously there must be a simpler, more elegant explanation.

And yet, through numerous experiments, other theories get ruled out while dark matter survives.

Chess is still no-hard, so "proving this" will be near impossible.
The closest we have is statistics. I remember watching a "bot battle." A chess tournament for bots only, algorithms playing eachother. Nearly 70% of these games ended in draw.
It's possible, although it seems unlikely, that white is in zugzwang [1] on the starting position, in which case black would have a win with perfect play.

Chess is only solved for positions with 7 pieces or less (and some configurations of 8 pieces [2]), so we're far from knowing best play from the 32-piece starting position.

That seems like a prime candidate for scripting.
That's already true of most sports, though. There's plenty of mechanical constructs that can move faster than the fastest human. The challenge is to be the fastest human using nothing but a human body, not to outrun a car or a boat (or even a humanoid running robot, which I assume we could build at this point, if anyone was interested in putting enough money behind it.)
No, you had a bad test setup. BT is 10dB below wifi, I can't see how what you are saying makes sense. Also it uses simple encodings that save on processing power but require more rf power to be decoded successfully.

Oh I see. Cant speak to the library author’s intent but I think of it like this.

Take an old school original rails app. No JS. Nothing. If something is gonna happen it is because you clicked a link or submitted a form.

In that app any page is generated by the server and must have any classes defined for css also rendered.

So the server is already needing to know about this and inject those classes.

With HTMX it is the same thing except you render partials sometimes and sometimes the whole page.
This is why I think places like sparkfun and adafruit do the Lord’s work.
> I've found them entertaining to watch. But Norwegians are master of slow-TV, so I guess that's why. They have good experts that manage to explain it to normal people. Interesting guests in the studio between moves. Interact with audience through questions from chat etc.

Like all things: things survive as long as there are people with a will to maintain them. Will my hypothetical kids want my 10 TB archive of projects, photos, and videos enough to keep them stored and learn the tools needed to access them? Who knows. We can say archving has never been easier though.

I really doubt there's a future where archivists lose the ability to open a pdf, doc, jpg, or png, even if those are not standard formats supported by OSes in the future. The data will likely be there and accessible, but it's unknown if the interest will be there. Attention is already stretched to an atom-thick sheet. If that trend continues I can't imagine people caring about things that happened last week, let alone last century (most of the time).

I am really hoping for a society-wide recognition that money isn't an end. Freedom, in the true sense of not being a slave to sin, is being free to seek the good. Money is useful insofar as it can allow us to seek the good, but currently a hyper growth focused society has forgotten why we wanted to grow in the first place.

At a guess, it'd mean building large slabs of concrete, or tanks of water, or other cheap item with large thermal inertia. Ideally you'd cool these down overnight, or at a period with cheap power, then under regular external temperatures you'd use these to reduce the need for cooling at periods of high power cost. Or, when it's very warm outside, these would work in tandem with the cooling systems to cope with a hot day, with the hope being that overnight you'd catch up, without needing to interrupt workloads.
> There's various strategies being raised to cover this so-called "lost revenue", including the tracking of your home electricity usage via smart boxes to tax you on charging your own car (!!) and charging cars a per-mile-tax instead of on fuel.

At the end of the day any implementation of the methods discussed lead to absolute tyranny.

To track per-mile-tax you’re going to have either government gps tracking in real-time or cameras tracking your ever my movement. Alternatively, the government will track and then likely limit power consumption for your cars.

This is the exact opposite of any free market. Effectively, you’re giving total control to the government around what movement you can make and/or you’ll have zero anonymity by law.
> Furthermore, while yes— the energy usage of cryptocurrency is a problem, and a damn near inherent problem at that— it seems to me like it’s such a minor drawback comparatively speaking to the other evils in the world. 14 trees burn in the Amazon Rainforest every second. A kid dies in Africa from starvation or malaria every 15 seconds. Oil companies cover up their emissions and pay for favourable regulations that allow them to continue to pollute at industrial scale with little to no pushback.

Yes. PoW's energy issues is indeed a problem in which efficient alternatives like PoS, Hashgraphs and Byzantine Fault Tolerant systems, already exist if not for years. We can use a similar case with electric cars as an alternative to petrol and diesel ones. The same is true here.

> I am no tinfoil hat wearing cryptobro, don’t get me wrong, but considering how little pollution cryptocurrency produces comparatively speaking to $insert_megacorp_here, and how weak of a logical counterpoint that seems to be against the inherent positives of cryptocurrency, it seems to me like this argument is one that is almost wholeheartedly emotional in nature and one where I wouldn’t be surprised if the roots of it were astroturfed by a select few who did not want to see crypto succeed.

Totally correct. I have seen the same anti-crypto folks not disclosing their associations or competing interests and deleting their history off the internet [0], where they are actively dedicating everyday to 'stop crypto' or complaining about the environment and tarring all of them with the same brush. Their logic is simply:

We should stop everyone from driving all cars and vehicles because there are more petrol / diesel vehicles than electric cars to offset the CO2 that these petrol / diesel cars are emitting into the atmosphere.

See how not only that is impractical, but it makes absolutely no sense?

On top of that, the tech bros don't want to complain about the deep learning systems (DLS) used for training purposes and mass surveillance which is no better or no efficient than PoW cryptocurrencies burning the planet as well. The difference is, these DLS have no efficient alternative for re-training or re-learning on new data since 2012 and always requires tons of data centres to achieve this in a shorter space of time.

The fact is, 13+ years since Bitcoin, we have working and efficient alternatives to it. 10+ years in with deep learning and there are no efficient ways to train large amounts of data without causing data centres to catch fire. I'm lead to believe that the environment reaction against cryptocurrencies today is one that is not only emotional, but an extreme response boosted by the ones that have a vested interest to laughably attempt to 'destroy all of them'.

> Am I the only one that thinks this way?

No. Just avoid the extreme positions that either pro-crypto folks or anti-crypto folks set themselves in.

So is everything else, you just take it for granted at this point.
that feels like a separate issue. You should be able to configure DNS servers and the device should respect that.
But chessdle doesn't quite roll off the tongue.
Everyone always seems to jump from general schemes (road tax, fuel duty) to Orwellian tracking (GPS everywhere). Seems like a simple scheme of mileage tracking and net charge tracking would do. You then have an overall energy use / mile figure that you can use to price each mile so people who buy more efficient cars are rewarded, and then charge by total number of miles, so people who do fewer miles pay less.
I've worked in social services, benefit kings/queens are a thing, but they are only a small visible part of the picture. It is incredibly uncharitable to call alcoholics lazy. These are people who very often have very difficult base struggles. It is an extreme luxury to be at a point where you can easily have a well paying stable job, not to mention the freedom and received ability to "create a startup," and to top it off, expect success. To look at all this with a self serving perspective, well that's laziness.

The UK Government currently spends around £11 billion on roads, https://www.statista.com/statistics/298667/united-kingdom-uk... so the excess is a handy revenue stream which clearly it would lothed to give up.

That means the real opportunities with the switch to electrifying transportation, like moving freight traffic to rail will not be seized as that would entail even more spending. Instead we are stuck with the problem that every solution to climate change is along the same lines of "just like before but this time with electricity".

This has not been the case for quite a while. All of Carlsen's matches (Anand, Anand, Karjakjn, Caruana, Nepomniatchchi) had tie breakers in the format, to determine a guaranteed clear winner. The Karjakin and Caruana matches were decided in this way.
bicycle and pedestrians could be exempted from a road tax based on fairly simple assumption: the wear and tear is minimal compared to a car. It wouldn't even surprise me if the wear and tear is so small that it can't even be measured.

But I could be wrong. It would be interesting to hear if heavy bike/pedestrian roads have higher road maintenance than those that are used lightly. My guess would be that the major wear and tear comes from nature, water in particular, which mean wear and tear isn't based on usage.

When it come to tire pollution those would be better taxed on the tires themselves. Bike tires tend to be much much smaller than cars so the taxation wouldn't be that big of a deal to cyclists.
I've setup box86 on an ARM gaming handheld with a Qualcomm SDM845 recently and it's pretty amazing what it can do. The SDM845 has a pretty good Linux support (with postmarketOS supporting the mainline kernel [0]). The open source drivers for the Adreno GPU even support Vulkan and full desktop OpenGL

With box86/box64, I've been able to run Steam and even Wine/Proton with DXVK translating DirectX to Vulkan. I can even run older 3D Windows games like Skyrim! Though it did glitch on the infamous cart intro.

There is a small chance that deep into the tree the first to play gets into zugzwang first, meaning position with no good moves. Is there any other scenario where playing black would give you theoretical edge?

So until proven otherwise it's still possible that its theoretical win for white, theoretical draw or theoretical win for black as i understand it.
