According to my layman's understanding and Issac Arthur's science and futurism videos, fusion is great because of how universally common the fuel is. Maybe fission fuels are not a big deal on Earth, but they are on the moon, Mars, orbital habs or Europa. Meanwhile fusion is just hydrogen. Literally what's the universe is mostly made of.

So maybe right know fission is as good as fusion (better because it exists), but space is soon, and fusion is better for space.
I'm not arguing that Product should sit high and mighty and refuse to listen to Development. Great ideas can come from everywhere, including Development, of course. But understanding what ought to be built, at least for functional requirements, is fundamentally Product's job and their decision.

What great teams do is that they have a Product guy sit on the same team as Developer guy(s), precisely to avoid the malaise you describe.
Isn't Helion claiming they can achieve non-DT fusion in a few years? That seems extremely suspect to me - as far as I know, non-DT fusion has barely ever been seen in a lab.

I was wondering the same. In France chiropractors are not doctors and do some magic/voodoo/mistakes manipulating your body.

This is different from a kinesitherapeut who uses information from doctors or imaging to make sure documented movements.

I think the interesting question there (and really any language comparison) is to compare the result of idiomatic implementations. Unfortunately, there is no clear answer on what is idiomatic, even with something like Python that is more opinionated than most on the question.
This seems like a very broad and vague question to me, making it hard to answer or imagine a starting point for your discovery on the subject.

Like many scientific fields these days the breath and depth is immense. Are you looking for a specific niche of astronomy or an overall understanding of the universe? And is that from a human perspective or perhaps a physics perspective?

I would narrow down your interests and start finding relevant sources there. Or, if you don't know, start at a very broad source like space.com or nasa.gov and explore the topics that grab your attention.
It's also snarky to post the year as if it's a dated topic when it's current.
OK, I checked. Calibre did almost nothing to the epubs I downloaded and added to the Calibre library and then sent to my device from there (a KOBO Libra H2O). The only thing it did was to add a file `./META-INF/calibre_bookmarks.txt` to the zip archive. The HTML was completely untouched. Now obviously if you do some conversion it's going to be another mattter and it's possible that the Calibre checks for some things it considers incompatible with its reader and in those cases alters the HTML, but I didn't find anything like that in the books I checked.

Admittedly I don't think that Calibre should touch the contents of an ebook zip file without specific action from the user (such as requesting a conversion)... but what it does doesn't seem to be problematic.
These are all excellent points—thank you for clarifying some of the parts I hadn't considered. In terms of the last and how practical it is, we're more-or-less saying the same thing; my hope was to be clear on what is a result of a tough engineering dilemma, as opposed to impossible or intrinsic, just so casual readers of this thread don't go away with the wrong idea.

It is also common in Europe, or at least Germany, though more likely spelled Meckes. The term apparently used in the US (Mickey Ds) is unheard of here. There seems to be a trend in the US to dissociate from everything that sounds like it could have European history or influence (see also the renaming of french fries)
Nope. While you are still searching product-market-fit, if your product or service has a unit price (price that consumers pay) that is designed to cover the amortized cost of your "owned infra" or operating cost on the cloud, it should not matter that you are operating on the cloud.

In fact, starting out on the cloud gives you leverage.

Unfortunately this is true, even with non-political topics. Some people will treat sincere questions trying to understand their point of view as attacks and keep escalating/trying to make it personal.

My local McDonald's (at least in the UK) almost always has a queue for the single human taking orders as they mostly use cash. Some of them don't even look at the kiosks as an option, even if prompted by staff. The most you get is a member of staff using the kiosk for them,

As others have pointed out, the analogy doesn't even work for what it is trying to do. Tasks are heterogeneous (as are the features themeselves) and some steps involve passive wait time (e.g. waiting for CI, QA or reviews, or waiting for the grill to do its thing to the patties). Religiously linearizing the process by isolating each feature may actually often prolong the overall time in these cases.

I think the key word there is "in Iowa" these reports are about Corn use in the state, not about Corn Subsidies nationwide or even the over all use of Corn from Iowa in other states.

as you said Iowa has high pork production so it is obvious that would be the main use of Corn Feed IN Iowa, but that would not track to other states like say Texas where there is less pig and more Cow

We managed to successfully pass lighting regulations in Pittsburgh last year [0] which will result in about 40k city lights being replaced with much more dark-sky-friendly hardware.

My mother [1], an astronomer at CMU, has been very involved with this effort, and is tracking it with "before" and "after" photography courtesy of the ISS crew.

It is one area of environmental regulation that seems to be pretty easy to make progress on because it's not a partisan issue and the "right way" ends up being cheaper for cities as well as more pleasant.

There was this one time during the first gulf war when I was walking back from the company CP on an overcast night where I literally couldn’t see my hand in front of my face. I had to wait for a lightning strike, walk a bit in the right direction, wait for more lightning, rinse and repeat. Kind of amusing to be honest and it took a while to get back to my hole.

The non-overcast nights were amazing because there wasn’t any artificial light for hundreds of miles in any direction with us being in the middle of the desert and the air war going on. Could almost read by starlight.

Also think high gun ownership is more about being able to go murder ducks than being scared of the dark because any responsible gun owner isn’t going to shoot at something they haven’t 100% identified so they don’t accidentally shoot the neighbors out looking for a missing cow or something.
I believe this also depends on who you ask

For me deadlines are simply "someone wants this and this delivered @" I work on it a couple of days and then I tell that someone if it's reasonable and if it's not reasonable, what they are gonna get instead.

Most of the times deadlines are way off the mark and it also happens that they take 1/3 of the planned time, in that case instead of over engineering, I simply rest or study something new.

Over engineering is a curse only if one can't stop doing it and needs an external stimuli to mark the feature as "done".

Otherwise I believe most programmers know when their work is finished and can be shipped.

> Real problem: domain squatters. Can't see GNS solves this.

What's the point of squatting random identifiers? Seriously, what damage does it do to you if I "squat" on ´www.000G006K2TJNMD9VTCYRX7BRVV3HAEPS15E6NHDXKPJA1KAJJEG9AFF884´ ?
The paleo argument is not absolute, of course. It’s just a guideline for deciding. Drinking filtered water is a quantitative improvement over drinking stream water. Cycling is qualitatively different than walking.
You clearly missed my point. I was saying that OP should not call it "farang tax" and that they should call it "foreigner tax". The reason is that "farang" means "white foreigner". However, the tax is applied to all foreigners, not just white people.

I can only assume the confusion arose from the person in question either:

1. not being a native English speaker

2. assuming I was white

Hope that clears things up. I really don't know how I can make this any clearer aside from the lot of us hoping on a plane to BKK and you experience the place yourselves.
A phrase I have to issue here on occasion is, "they didn't misunderstand you, they just disagree."
You're very right here. Personally, my bar is quite low. I dislike chicory, which is often mixed with coffee, especially cheaper coffee blends. I find it very harsh and tasteless, and it ruins the experience for me. Almost everything else within the realm of 100% coffee is different levels of acceptable to me. I just can't stand chicory.
1) Censorship is a very real problem on the clearnet.

2) Users ultimately decide what root zones to trust or directly what nicks map to what public keys.

3) This is fundamentally the same class of attack as MITM/Evil Maid, it is impossible to completely defend against this. Existing DNS/PKI does not fix this either, It merely put everyone's eggs in one basked and hands the problem off to rent-seeking intermediaries (CA's, Registrars, etc.) which serve no purpose other than racketeering.

The purpose is not to make MITM impossible, just harder. Users will familiarize themselves with the risks of the system just as they do with Tor/I2P addresses.

Most users already receive phishing messages telling them to "Go to microsoft.signin.net to reset your password!" so they already know not to trust domains unless they trust the entity giving them the domain - that should be a sign that the existing DNS isn't socially expected to authenticate identities before letting them own a domain.

When you want to go to a company's website, do you use a search engine or just go to <company_name>.com and hope for the best? If so, do you expect every company to squat every TLD with their name?

5) LOL! Yeah... encrypts your DNS request directly to cloudflare or <intermediary>'s servers. GNS fixes this.

6) The centralization of the existing internet infrastructure in general is something that should be avoided. I for one, do not mind if it makes your job more difficult. It is not just critical for global security but also for personal liberty on the internet.

The centralization of crap like DNS serves as a major hurdle for average users and affects the use of the internet as a free-speech tool, even if you might not realize it. How do you get a domain? You have to pay a registrar, which means you need a credit card. How does a user host their own blog/email/whatever without jumping through all these hoops? They don't, they just use twitter or gmail or something and accept corporate censorship. DNS is a wedge towards "web 2.0" social media and thus censorship.

I wonder what Arab Spring would look like if everyone had easy access to a secure, private, decentralized internet instead of the what we have today where users are funneled into a handful of monopolies for corporate gain and social control.

A functional internet probably makes your job harder because the majority of the software industry is built on rent-seeking business that offers (service-based) solutions to systematic artificial problems like that of DNS, PKI, IP.

I recently worked with some .Net developers who wanted a primarily Java based company to let them work with .Net. In their opinion .Net was so much better (faster, larger ecosystem, more developers) that it would pay off quickly. When I asked them for documentation, they pointed to some microbenchmarks that had no significance to the type of work they would do. They also complained that Java was more "corporate" than ".Net", which is ridiculous in my opinion. Even if that was the case, the differences would be a "rounding error"

This means basically nothing. If it were fake, would a South Korean periodical publish it? Yes, almost certainly. But if it were real, would a South Korean periodical publish it? Yes, almost certainly.

How do you conculde that "criticism of #MeToo" is akin to "Nazis"? This just cheapens and dilutes the impact of the word and your argument.

Nazis had/have a specific, violent ideology. Criticism of a hashtag-activism movement, has nothing to do with it.
This is actually a fairly large problem these days.

As you point out, you take people who just cant help but "virtue signal" and combine this with an anonymous reporting system and now that system is being abused.

The other day I took my dog for a walk and a young girl (around 5) approached me to ask if she could pat him. I had a short conversation with the girl, told her to make sure she is careful with the roads (we met at an intersection) and asked if her parents know where she is. She told me she has a walky-talky and her mom is aware.

I did not see a need to do anything further, the young girl knew her way home, she was like 5-6 houses away in a safe and quiet area.

But some "stranger danger" nut jobs feel they have a duty to protect YOUR kids from their imagined danger?

My dog is rather large and a rehome with some bad behaviour attributes so at times i need to be firm with him to encourage him to change.

I certainly dont "beat" him as that accomplishes nothing, but he is "yelled at" and made to sit down and not allowed to continue walking until he calms down.

someone reported me to animal control, who then came to my house. They were not able to tell me who called, when, what took place, etc.

How do yo defend your actions when you are not allowed to know what the actions were?

Flip side, if my large dog bit one of the off-leash dogs in the area the owners would then be reporting me for this?

Cant discipline the dog for being bad around other dogs, cant let the dog be aggressive to other dogs?

These reporting systems are rapidly becoming "weaponized".
I skimmed the paper and couldn't find where they say they looked for those users and posts that you mention. Maybe I missed it, can you point me to where does it say they make an honest effort to find those people?

I wouldn't say that failing to at least try to look for the less-than-enthusiastic people makes this paper criminally dangerous pseudoscience, but it certainly gives me pause.

> This one is probably the most questionable. I was always a bit leery due to the titles being a bit too accepting of anything you might find on r/Futurology, and then happened on a Thunderf00t Busted (not a regular viewer there either) about some of his videos and yeah. I think it's safe to say he's not doing much of a critical evaluation of anything as he is just reading whatever cool sounding press releases he finds. I'm usually fairly allergic to more absolute statements (part of the reason I'm not such a regular viewer of Thunderf00t's), but even with the limited amount I've seen I'm pretty confident in writing off Undecided w/Matt Ferrel. At the very least, it deserves the same kind of credibility as anything you might find on r/Futurology.

I don't know what to tell you if you believe Thunderf00t's "debunking" is more valuable than your own viewing of any given channel. Thunderf00t is someone who is on his own very problematic and misleading.

The question posed was about things for the intellectually curious, not for "who is the most accurate science communicator on YouTube" so I think including people who cover topics in a simple way are useful.

I'd encourage you to look at many of his videos that cover basic things like how geothermal heating and heat pumps work.

Regarding Veritasium, that is an even weaker argument IMO. If we're going to try to pillory everyone trying to make a living off communicating STEM topics I'm not sure who we'll have left in the space. The boring altruistic rich people?

I'd love to see examples of him outright lying or misleading his audience if you have it, because that would certainly change my mind on recommending his channel to people.
My only objection is the food/fruit/vegetable argument. The best fruits and veggies come from gardens, most from Japan.

Random fruits and veggies from the wild mostly taste overly sour, bitter, or under or over ripe.
I mostly agree. Comparing light pollution to air/water pollution is a huge stretch; photons are not comparable to soot, sulfur oxides, microplastics, or mercury, to name a few.

That said, some ecological arguments presented in the article are fairly compelling, although more research needs to be done on a) how much light pollution actually is to blame and b) how disruptive to ecosystems the putative increase of bird deaths/disrupted turtle nesting/insect reproduction actually is.

With respect to disrupted circadian rhythms, blackout curtains or sleeping blindfolds work wonders. Though as other posters have pointed out, people living at extreme northern latitudes don’t seem to have any issues during the summer, when it never gets dark at night; indeed, it’s not getting enough light during the winter that causes problems (seasonal affective disorder/vitamin D deficiencies). Many animals living at those latitudes seem to have adapted fine; the same bird species living in Sweden can also be found much further south.

I’ve never understood the emotional argument for dark skies. I’ve seen the Milky Way with my naked eye at night several times, and it was like visiting the Grand Canyon—extremely impressive and worth seeing, but not something that’s so essential to my emotional well-being that I need to see it every night, therefore necessitating drastic measures to ensure everyone can see the Grand Canyon each day.
> Just out of curiosity: is a car really the best option for a 6 mile round trip? That's a distance where I'd consider walking.

Walking!? So 1.5-2hrs each way to get to work? On really hot or cold days, that’s going to be torturous. Had you suggested riding a bike or maybe a scooter/moped I’d have not said anything, but suggesting folks walk that distance felt a bit off the mark.

> Out of curiosity, what's the difference in runtime when compared to Andrew's optimized version on your machine?

Results on an M1: my "idiomatic" version is 1.32 times faster than Andrew's original optimized version, whereas the optimized C version is 1.13 times faster than my "idiomatic" version. So, all things being equal, that'd make Rust 3rd, just ahead of C++, and behind Zig and C, if I'm reading the results correctly.

More important, to me, would be the other thing -- it's readable, idiomatic Rust. That is, if it had been 5% slower, I think we'd probably all prefer to maintain this code.

I don't think we're talking about the same things here. I'm talking about wholesale videos that are effectively a big, undisclosed ad. I don't mean I don't like how he does ad reads. I mean I don't like how he's created entire videos that are basically ads and then passed them off as his own original good-faith attempt to inform.
