I'm a self-employed solo software developer who doesn't even use a phone for business.

Your suggestion is that I buy a separate phone and permanently pay for phone service for that separate phone, just so that I can give Twitter an unimportant phone number in case they suspend my account for an insane reason and refuse my appeal, and then get hacked?

> Passengers are rare? Most times when I've taken Amtrak, its packed

Certainly compared to other modes in most circumstances. If, on a particular route, there's one train a week and 100 planes a day, the train can still be packed while "train passengers" are still rare.

IIRC, Amtrak was created because the railroads were losing money on passenger traffic and wanted to get rid of the service. I imagine that's because the service had a lot more competitors than it did in rail's heyday.

Exactly.

It is impossible to hold a typical VFX scene in RAM to start with.

Even freelancers doing sim/FX work now have at least 128GB RAM and this is often just enough for proxy work that still gets expanded at render time.

I.e. consider the possibility that your worst estimate of how complex this data could be is off by 1-3 orders of magnitude.

And for your example: the person who signs this off is the VFX supervisor. They don't sign off anything but final frames.

It's not just the Saudis doing crazy stuff like this. From the Wikipedia article On Neom, I found this:

> Belmont is a proposed planned city in the Phoenix metropolitan area of Arizona, United States. The development, a partnership between billionaire philanthropist Bill Gates and local real estate investors, will be a "smart city" designed around emerging technologies.[1] It will be located in the West Valley area, along Interstate 10 near Tonopah.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belmont,_Arizona

That's some of the driest, hottest land anywhere in the US and an extremely fragile ecosystem. The ongoing Colorado River crisis just makes this more of a head-scratcher. Maybe not at the same scale, but definitely a similar sense of leading with technology rather than the problem.

As someone who did have a cat in one of my online dating pictures, I can believe that both: a) having a cat picture decreases the number of matches, especially against having a dog picture; but also that b) it increases the likelihood of hitting it off with those matches that do come.

Which is a net positive.
All memory is uniform, for instance. There is one scalar data processing unit that finishes a previous operation and then issues the next: no way to naturally describe SIMD, for instance. No way to speak about asynchronous things that happen on a Cell CPU all the time, as much as I can judge. (I never programmed it, but I remember that people who did said they had to use assembly extensively.)

OTOH you can write stuff like `*src++ = *dst++`, and it would neatly compile into something like `movb (R1)+, (R2)+`, a single opcode on a PDP-11.

> roads already exist

The implication in this is that railroads don't already exist, which is simply false. In fact, nearly every town in the Midwest established before 1950 were built on a railroad line. A few notable examples are Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Sacramento, Birmingham, Chicago, St. Louis, and Portland Oregon. Moreover, many suburbs were formed around a streetcar line, which were later torn up to let cars drive there instead.

> maintenance is extremely cheap. It’s paid for with gasoline taxes

That is demonstrably false. Gas taxes as of 2011 do not cover road maintenance (at most it's RI with almost 80% and median of about 45% [1]). Furthermore, the federal gas tax (which is supposed to pay for the interstate system) hasn't been increased since 1993, and isn't indexed to inflation. The United States Highway Trust Fund has been relying on non-fuel tax revenue since 2008, and that doesn't look to be changing any time soon [2]. Of course, regardless of the actual costs of effective maintenance, you can make any public works project much cheaper by simply not maintaining it. If maintenance was actually "extremely cheap," then it stands to reason that the US would be getting more than a 'D' on roads [3]. Even after all of that, it still doesn't factor in the legal requirements for private expenditure on roads, such as minimum parking requirements and extensive R1 zoning. It also doesn't factor in the vast negative externalities of cars (yes, even electric cars).

> Whereas rail is unbelievably expensive

I'm going to ignore that you chose the MTA, a famously corrupt organization that is responsible for tunneling under the densest metro area in the country, as a baseline for the cost of rail. Instead I'm going to point out that car roads have nearly every bureaucratic advantage in the US, for a multitude of reasons. There is a lot of nuance to this, but for anything short of HSR, the expense in railroads is not engineering. If you're interested in a jumping off point for learning more here, check out [4].

> As a gamedev I don’t have time to fix every issue that comes up with the engine. I’m not interested in building a game engine, I want to make games.

Not only that, but you might not necessarily be able to fix it yourself either! You might be a developer who can learn to use Godot with GDScript or C# (just an example) and could get comfortable with its abstractions, but might have never worked on your own engine before and might not have the pre-requisite C++ experience not to make horrible mistakes.

Using an off-the-shelf engine is generally supposed to allow you to get by with a team of game developers, instead of needing another team of game engine developers. That's not to say that it's not very lucrative to have the latter for larger organizations, though I think that smaller teams have different concerns.
Unlike crypto Uber actually generates revenue from sources besides new investors..
The difference is ultimately money. A while ago (early 90s?) Switzerland voted to spend lots of money on the railway network to make it work the way it does. It was discussed on HN before. The video you linked notes single tickets are expensive and most commuters get half price or free travel paid by their employers. It's still a marvel, and I'd love to have the Swiss train network in my country even if it costs the same, but definitely worth pointing out when comparing to countries who don't have the political will to spend more on their railways.
>Now nothing matters.

That's my point.

>Equating crypto to investing in companies is nonsense.

Why? Even if you go back to "It's not providing any value to society to buy crypto and resell it at a higher price later to some sucker." It's not like me selling a share to someone else provides society value. Unless I do something for society with the money I made, but the same would apply to money based off profitable cryptocurrency investments.

RDIs are based on an 'average american' diet. What you actually need nutritionally can change significantly based on your diet specifics.

For example if you have a diet high in oxalates, which are present in many leafy green vegetables, then your nutritional requirements for things like calcium and magnesium are increased, because the oxalates bind to the calcium and magnesium and cause you to not absorb it. Thus to compensate for that effect, you need to eat more of that nutrient. If you have a diet free of oxalates, then the amount you need is less than the RDI, etc.

Also a lot of nutrition labels do not modify themselves on the bioavailability of their specific nutrients. Plant protein is less bioavailable and has a less balanced amino acid profile than meat protein, so you need to eat more plant protein typically to get the same total equivalent amount to be absorbed by your body. Magnesium oxide is cheaper than magnesium citrate and is not absorbed enough, so you need more magnesium oxide in weight to have the amount absorbed by your body be the same as a lesser amount of magnesium citrate. But on nutrition labels, they're just going to put milligrams of magnesium, no matter what kind there is.

> Anti-alcohol proselytism makes me a little uncomfortable, though, because it seems that people with little control over themselves--through no fault of their own, probably--want others to stop engaging in activities that they find enjoyable, enriching, and well blended into their happy lives.

Just to play devil's advocate, I would argue that if I am required or at least expected to interact socially with you, your alcohol consumption effects me whether I am drinking or not. In the same vein but to a much lesser degree as you smoking a cigarette, or a blunt, or a vape pen.

Is the wow bad or good?
That's not fair. The whole point of "footguns" is that they are not obvious and that the reason more experienced people don't set them off, is because they've directly experienced their results before.

Our industry went to the trouble of inventing a whole new language (Rust), which is now being championed by major industry players, because those footguns are so non-obvious. "Trusting" smart people to "just not make mistakes with pointers" was clearly the wrong choice.

If you haven't used C and C++ before, it's reasonable to think you're going to make those first-time mistakes with your code inside their codebase. That's a good argument for not hiring you and only hiring experienced C/C++ programmers.

In practice, that's exactly what those companies do.

“It will take €10 trillion of investment by 2050 for Europe to transform its energy infrastructure”

In case anyone is wondering how we got here, it required almost 40 years of not doing much to solve the problem. We’ll need another 30 years of effort.

I imagine because we waited so long, we shortened our window to solve the problem. Thus requiring more money and a couple additional miracles.

The multi-generational effort did turn out to be a problem. And all that coal in China. Carl Sagan understood the issues so well.

Revisiting Brooks' Law (Adding Manpower Makes a Project Later)
The article accounts for this in average earth temperature. The earth’s surface would be hotter than the sun in 1000 years, and would generally be uncomfortable after 200. The only way around that would be a substantial change in the thermodynamic efficiency of our energy use and/or a non radiative means of disposing of heat.

Granted, if we did have the equivalent energy of a sun - we are unlikely to be spending it all on earth. Escaping earths gravity would be a trivial expense.

This is getting absolutley ridiculous. I have tried on purpose to get addicted to alcohol and I couldn't. I can get shit-faced drunk but I can't keep doing it frequently enough.

Stuff like this makes me pro-cigarette and pro-hard drugs because instead of informing people clearly of their findings they presume to know why people use substances to begin with and the substance is always the worst choice. No my friend, there are many many things worse than dying be grateful if you don't know that first hand. Substances help people deal with shit or overcome mental obstacles.
