That sort of argument might work well for a time when slavery was a recent memory and children frequently worked in factories instead of going to school. That doesn't mean it works equally well for the present day, or for the kind of future most of us would probably prefer.
> It would only have been a war crime if the city was undefended.

There's no treaty or legal doctrine arguing that. That seems to be something you've made up.

The generally accepted argument for strategic bombing being a war crime is that it targets civilians which is outlawed by the Geneva Convention.

AFAIK that had never been tried in a court but that's the logic. The "it was defended" argument isn't a factor in any legal discussion I've seen.
There was a case near where I live where a guy with severe mental illness - not understanding where he was - was arrested for failing to pay child support.

Fortunately it encouraged reform.

But neighboring states still issue automatic arrest warrants, and out state is required to serve then even though we are disgusted by it.

It’s always: young, impoverished black male with a warrant from a neighboring state.

Many local police are disgusted by it. But they don’t have a choice: warrants are warrants.

If your justification for requiring non-VOIP numbers is "it decreases the number of bots on the service" and the service is overrun with bots, clearly requiring non-VOIP numbers hasn't done much of anything to decrease the number of bots.

You're missing the part where this would displace fossil fuels with "electrofuels", meaning for every ton of this stuff made, that's more fossil fuels left in the ground. Replacing a fossil fuel with a carbon neutral fuel means a reduction in net carbon emissions.

The other part you're missing is that this decouples fuel production from locations with large fossil fuel sources (often run by governments with authoritarian rulers who use their exports as leverage). This means that you can spread production to anywhere the sun shines which means highly decentralized, local production of electrofuels.

The third part you're missing is how this increases demand for solar panels and carbon sequestration technology which has an amazing feedback loop that makes these cheaper and more efficient over the decades, meaning that as hydrocarbon demand declines over time as other technologies take over (e.g., electric cars reducing demand from the transportation sector), this built up intellectual capital and infrastructure can be used to just sequester carbon for long-term storage, which would be net negative instead of just carbon neutral.

There's probably more you're missing but I'd just recommend reading more of the blog where he explains everything.
Another option that makes appends cheaper would be to use a Treiber stack (one acquire, one release!), but maintain a separate path for readers. When pushing, do a read (acquire) of the tail, then set (relaxed) a back link on the second-from-top element pointing to the current top, then CAS (release) to push your node. Since the back link will always write the same value, it's ok for contending writers to submit racing writes.

Readers start by reading the tail(acquire) and storing a pointer to the node before it. They then traverse from head until they reach the node before the tail, then skip reading its back link pointer (as they already know it will point to the tail).
Because declaring an emergency creates fear and fear creates political power.
It does not excuse such a reckless use of industrial equipment around people without appropriate failsafes.

A robotic arm like this not a toy, is a deadly machine with a lot of force and a lot of mass. If you were standing next to it for some reason it could unexpectedly swing around and break your neck in an instant. Engineers should be careful to design such systems with failsafes that account for any action the operator might take.
Well what the article is saying is that the ISP would also hand out data on your previous interactions with any other websites. Which is completely insane of course.

Excellent post with lots of detail, thanks, and wow! I'm not alone in my skepticism it seems.
My understanding is heat from first chamber + external vacuum is used to dry out a second chamber and then the system is reversed when the first chamber is saturated.

Energy is being put into the system but it is less than the AC unit cooling humid air on its own so is a net gain relatively speaking.

Meltdown accident: basically, reactor is turned off, however heat continues to be generated because of a thing called decay heat which is when isotopes generated by the fission reactions decay to more stable isotopes and release energy. It's about 7% of a fission reactor's power and continues for a few hours until it's negligible. 7% of a gigawatt reactor is like having a couple of jet engines going full blast inside the core. This heat has to be removed, and meltdowns happen when people fail to do so - basically pumps break, coolant leaks, or coolant is blocked from cooling down the core. Recent micro reactors get around this because they don't need active coolant or people to cool down the reactor - they just cool off by conduction or simple heat rejection systems. I read recently that fusion reactor will also generate decay heat from all the activated components and this is comparable to a fission reactor. The difference is there's a lot less radioactive crap in a fusion reactor - but the fusion reactor will still meltdown and they are expensive...
I love how none of this mentions an illegal war based on lies. Feel like things are slightly biased.

most criticism is usually about the games content, not the graphics. Unless we read very different reviews, I guess.

There are clear perimeters set in industrial settings when robots are in operation for this precise reason.

I'm sure the devs could have used much lower force values when dealing with the prices or put logic in place where if a hand is on the board the robot disengages. Hindsight is 20/20..

As someone who has made lots of free stuff that tons of people actually use, the internet is full of people who think that they are super insightful and that their scathing indictments of the shade of grey that you picked are incredibly useful. It’s full of people who think that they are entitled to have no social skills because they “know UX”.

It’s orders of magnitude easier to destroy than to create, and our culture is all about supposed experts gate-keeping with their banal comments about UX problems that boil down to personal preference.
Many governments don't though. If you think about it modern U.S. is a pretty rare phenomenon throughout history and it's not guaranteed to continue forever.

Thanks for this. It always bugged me that quaternions didn't fit well with the linear algebra of computer graphics. You absolutely need quaternions, but every time you do a rotation you have to convert to quaternions, do the rotation, then convert back.

With geometric algebra (Clifford algebra), it's all just one system with the quaternions being a special case within that system. All of it makes more sense and computationally it's only slightly more work than linear algebra.

Why don't we use Clifford algebra instead of linear algebra today? Because back in the 1800s there was something of a war between the people who liked Hamilton's formulation (quaternions, tensors, Clifford algebra) and those who liked vectors and matrices. Except in a few fields like relativity, the vector/matrix crowd won the war. And they probably shouldn't have.
If you add district heating to LWRs their effective efficiency goes from 33% to over 57%. If we adjust markets to value on-demand (including nights/weekends/winters) low-carbon heat and electricity, LWR economics would be good, even in the USA.

They're already expected to be essential for decarbonizing at scale.

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S254243511...

I have plenty of rants about how LCOE is wholly inappropriate as a metric of overall decarbonized system costs. If you look from that perspective, LWRs built by Koreans, Chinese, Indians, or Russians are an incredible deal.

We just need to have the Koreans come over and re-teach us how to build reactors. It's beautifully symmetric because we originally taught them. They've perfected the knowledge, enhanced it, saved it, and can now teach us.

This is a solvable problem if there's political will to solve it.

Much of the uncertainty and cost of a new fission plant is tied to regulatory, permitting and litigation costs. No one's suggesting eliminating regulation, but the near-limitless ability to hold up a project with specious lawsuits could be curtailed.

The main motivation to not reprocess fuel was nuclear nonproliferation, because it frees up the plutonium for nuclear weapons. But on the off chance that governments ever want to build a giant pile of nuclear weapons it’s sensible to not get rid of the nuclear waste, since if it ever turns out you do want it again it’s very expensive and time consuming to produce. Since you’ve already gone to all of the effort of mining the uranium and producing a bunch of plutonium, best to just keep it around somewhere in case you ever do want it for some reason.

I recently lived in SF. Got my scripts through Walgreens.

Walgreens is a front line medical provider. Just like ERs. The pharmacists were often spending their time treating (dispensing meds) to people having psychiatric episodes.

Quite independently- people would come in and steal tons of stuff. These thieves were not mentally ill. They were probably not homeless. Some also attempted to scam people waiting in line.

> And you can't just beam the waste heat from every process away from the surface of the earth, that violates the second law of thermodynamics.

Surely this can't be right, because if it were, air conditioning (the normal everyday kind) would be impossible, right?

What we're talking about here is loosely analogous to air conditioning the entire Earth (with the heat being sent to space rather than the outside air). Sounds like a hard engineering problem, but not impossible.
I don't know, I've been there and it's like I have an opportunity to learn and do something wildly different or new and that's something to look forward to even if the only person that will appreciate what I did is myself.

I personally don't care much if I contribute to a society that gives -1 shits about me or appreciated by coworkers that will throw me under the bus if it meant a brownie point for them (been there, done that).

> These large-battery, long-range vehicles would have to be driven many tens of thousands of miles before they rack up enough mileage and save enough gasoline to compensate for the emissions created to produce their batteries.

This still seems like a net positive to me? The average lifespan of an ICE car is 200,000 miles. Electric vehicles supposedly last even longer.

I'd love for the auto industry to focus on small and cheap PEVs, because I like cars that don't cost a lot of money. But for someone who wants to drop $50k on a truck -- even if the carbon break even point for an F150 Lightning turns out to be some high figure like 100,000 miles, isn't the environmental impact over the lifetime of the vehicle still better than its fossil fuel equivalent?

Yeah, Arthur Whitney's code is extreme (he is one of a kind) but the sentiment is something i wholeheartedly subscribe to.

The key point is this; once you've sufficiently studied that screen or two of code, you can understand all of it at the same time. If it's spread out over thousands of files, it's very difficult to understand all of it,

Because there are so many interlocking concepts in code you have to keep as much as possible in your head to build up the entire picture. This is where concise, terse and direct-to-the-point code shines; nothing gets in the way of putting all the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle in front of you so you can "get" everything at a glance. A good example is K&R C style espoused in their book which i used to find difficult in the beginning but now understand. Always put as much of relevant code as possible into one screenful.

This is exactly the reason why I am always so disappointed by many in the tech community in discussions about VPNs:

In almost every discussion about VPNs people say something along the lines of: “you can’t trust the VPN provider more than your ISP”. This has always been a dumb argument and this completely proves it.

ISPs are the worst. There is now only one in the Netherlands that I might trust (Freedom), but even they are using the network of another untrustworthy one (KPN) so I doubt they’d be able to do anything about it if the network owner would start something like this.

A permanent VPN connection is becoming more and more logical as long as you trust the provider more than your ISP. I use Mullvad.

Please let’s stop perpetuating the “now you are just moving the trust from ISP to VPN-provider” as a counter argument to using a VPN and start using it as a main reason to use VPN. Sad maybe, but necessary.
