This is appalling. There is no world in which an industrial robot like that should be operating next to a child. Their force sensors are not nearly sensitive enough to stop before causing serious injury. Going fast enough, they can absolutely kill you. This just screams negligence to me. Cannot believe they tried to blame it on the child.

There are robots, called Cobots, designed specifically for this type of environment. They are highly specialized and extremely sensitive to unpredicted forces. Even then, you'd likely have a light curtain to stop the motion when anything crossed over into the table.
Right, that's what I'm saying. If you try to cold-brew non-refrigerated for more than a day, you'll get mold.
How much can you do, given that terminals are physically far apart? I figured that the stores are pretty much taking up space that would otherwise be unused- but still there. If I’m stuck at an airport, I’d rather have more dining options than less. Airports with more restaurants tend to have better prices for the food as well.

People movers are faster than walking, maybe shuttles should be more common?
This greatly appeals to me, but I don't quite understand how these work. I looked into searx and friends, and it seems too good to be true. Like, if it's turning around and making requests to Google, don't they detect that as bot-like traffic? Seems like a good way to get your IP blocked or worse.
Because humans are not automatons and there is value in deriving pleasure from one's lived experiences?

This isn't a difficult question.
I think that issue is overblown. There certainly are tools availble to make decentralized storage much more reliable than they usually are. All OSes come with solutions to those problems, we just have to make people use them. But there's no incentive for companies to do that except for commercial customers. Yet they have found out it's much harder to charge their customers if they do it themselves, and individual customers service managing the customers machines is much harder and cost-ineffective. So the incentives are not to make better tools for the customers and users to use on their own, but to make better centralized tools. It's about control and charging for services. I think the customers play a smaller role in pushing the shift from decentralized to centralized data storage than is usually admitted.

I was expecting some actual thought about the subject of airport design, but this is more like a long tweet.

Is there some article about this kind of topic from someone with some good architectural insights? Maybe with some historical insights as well as how and why airport design might have changed over the years? Maybe with some insights on which airports DO work well and why?

That is the article I’d want to read.

You do need to be careful and know your dog well.

One of my parents’ dogs simply couldn’t be trusted with having any sort of common sense with what she ate. At one point she nearly killed herself by lapping up all the rendered fat from a joint of roast meat.

Another of their dogs absolutely loved bread, and went crazy for runner beans for some reason. He was mostly ok with not eating anything terrible (except the one time he ate a pair of stockings and needed to have some intestine removed…)

I don't think Google Search got worse, as in, I don't think changes they made directly made search a worse experience than not adding the change. I think that spam posters, scammers, et al., have gotten much better at gaming SEO, that Google got stuck with two bad options: (1) do nothing and have all common search terms loaded with spam, scams, and viruses, or (2) change how their search works to lessen the amount of bad actors, but also reduce the good search outcomes showing up.

Maybe I'm wrong. This is just a hunch based on looking at how big online communities fail, and how services that rely on user generated content fail. At a certain scale, you can no longer rely on people being good actors with light moderation. You need to tighten up moderation, even if it means making the community overall worse than it's peak. As, the alternative is letting the bad actors make it even worse than that.

More and more lately I've been coming across spam, reposted content from sites like StackOverflow, w3schools, Reddit, etc., but posted on different domains, on a page plastered with ads. To me, this is a peak into the arms race between Google's Search trying to return good results, and bad actors trying to get their spam to the front results.

But really: this reeks of motivated reasoning. It was very fast to get to your gate in the old terminal, but it took forever to get though check-in and security. In the new terminal, it takes very little time to get through the latter, and slightly more time to get through the former.

I am predisposed to dislike the new LGA terminal. But having actually used it a handful of times this year, it was an overwhelmingly positive experience compared to the old.

This is something that a lot of people claim with a universally authoritative tone, but it's counter to my own experience. I don't consume regularly candy, sweets, etc., but I do drink diet soda and zero-sugar energy drinks and when I (rarely) have fruits or make mixed drinks with fruit components they are really sweet to my palate. When I've cut diet soda out for long periods, fruits taste no sweeter. Cooked starches and tubers are already sweet-tasting and always have been for me; diet soda doesn't affect those, either.

There’s a big difference between making Cheese Puffs and genetically modifying a plant and releasing it into the wild.

The first is just irresponsible (unless you enjoy Cheese Puffs) but the second could possibly have major unintended consequences because there’s no way to account for all the variables.

As a somewhat unlikely example what if some poor third-world farmer plants some GMO and it kills their water buffalo, Buffalo Billy, who they rely on to plow their field?

For personal stuff I haven't compressed an archive in a while. I just copy the containing folder to an external drive and a cloud storage if it's really important. Everything I really really want archived is less than 1TB already. That fits on an external drive and cheap cloud storage subscription.

If I need to send something I'll use zip for personal stuff or tar.gz at work because I know everyone is using some kind of Linux and it's the only terminal zip command I have memorized.
Many of the issues you site about nuclear power have been solved. Here's a quote from an answer by acidburnNSA [1] who works in the industry, to a different story here on HN.

"Anyway let's just do fission you guys. It's way easier. It has been working fine since the 1950s. It's zero carbon. Waste problem is solved (see Onkalo, and reprocessing). It net saves millions of lives by displacing air pollution. It runs 24/7 on a tiny land and material footprint. We have enough uranium and thorium to run the whole world for 4 billion (with a b) years using breeder reactors (demonstrated in 1952 in Idaho). Get the Koreans over here to build some ARP1400s or the Chinese to build some Hualong Ones until we figure out how to project manage again and then call it good."

That's the beauty! It's just a bunch of files concated and when you throw compression algorithm X over it, it works pretty well. Super neat IMO.

I watched the video and the robot most certainly did not grab the boy's index finger.

Sequence of events

1. The robot was capturing the boy's queen with a bishop. For that, it first removed the queen from the board.

2a. The robot next moved the bishop onto the square where the queen was previously located.

2b. At the same time, the boy prematurely moved his rook to the same square, he completed the move before the bishop has been placed on the square

3. The robot completed its final downward motion to place the bishop onto the square while the boy's fingers were still on the rook, thus pinning the index finger between the bishop and the rook

The robot didn't do anything it wasn't programmed to do
This is making a lot of assumptions about what uranium is economically viable to extract. Specifically, this link appears to be assuming that it is possible to filter the entire oceans and Earth's entire crust for all the uranium and thorium they store. Those are both obviously unreasonable assumptions.
A couple weeks ago the Raido Spatkauf podcast series "how to fuck up an airport" was on the front page here. If you missed it then, I'd strongly recommend checking it out. It touches on a lot of the conflicting motivations driving airport design, as well as a lot of other interesting anecdotes from the construction of BER.

A VPN is also the only consistently good way to do ad-blocking on mobile. Mullvad, for instance, recently introduced ad-blocking, malware-blocking, and tracker-blocking in its mobile app. Previously I had to rely on the painfully poor ad-blockers that Apple allowed in its walled garden, and ads got through all the time. With the VPN, I am able to visit websites with virtually no ads appearing.

A tiling window manager is one which by default automatically assigns each newly created non-dialogue windows to a non-overlapping share of the screen according to a set of rules.

A lot of environments have a function to relocate the focused window to a predefined portion of the screen. For example left and right half. This makes it a stacking environment with limited tiling features.

It's not 6 unless you do many rounds of IVF or surrogacy. A round of IVF is on the order of $20k (retrieval and 1-2 implantation attempts).

IUI is not expensive — less than $1k. It's a high-touch turkey baster, with some cleaning and counting in-between.

Donor sperm is not expensive. Maybe $1k if you go through a formal process.

> implores god to intervene and privatize airports

This however might help, IFF competition is allowed to happen between nearby airports.

For example, around Washington DC, Dulles is horrible, Reagan is a pleasure: efficient, with short security lanes and very little walking required.

Around 2015, when I was in university and lived nearby I can tell you from experience that at Reagan, 20 to 30min was all you needed to get to the gate, even if it was crowded, even if you didn't have Pre.

At Dulles, even if everything went your way, you needed at least that much time to get from the entrance to the gate, given the horrible maze the Dulles airport was. Even 1h was cutting it short and taking risks.

However, both are part of the MWAA (Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority) which tries is best to reduce the attractivity of Reagan, by diverting the profits it generates to Dulles, by reducing Reagan flight slots and giving them to Dulles etc.

With privatization, horrible airports might be replaced by good ones if they can go bankrupt, even if I doubt politicians would let that happen.
For seawater extraction, you just put enough uranium capture fibers in a few places and the uranium is delivered to you slowly over billions of years via ocean currents. This is well supported by the various articles and entire scientific issue featured in the See Also section.

But if you don't buy seawater extraction, check out the Weinberg 1959 reference (https://doi.org/10.1063/1.3060564), which contains a calculation for how much earth would need to be moved to power the entire world on granite. They calculate that we'd need granite mining from the crust about the same order of magnitude of the fossil fuel mining operations at that time. Of course, mining granite is far less destructive than mining fossil fuel, so it's totally acceptable.

Recall that there is 20x more nuclear energy in average crustal rock than there is chemical energy in coal, per kg. So to a breeder reactor, it's literally as if the entire earth's crust is made of pure coal, 20x over.

Will that last long enough for ya? :)

And with that kind of energy density, it's all economical to extract.

I spent countless hours doing data analysis on covid numbers, going to primary sources (as much as was possible).

The data is horrible.

From bad "covid id" methodology, to indeterminate and vague cause of death reporting methodology on death certificates, to mixed state and county level reporting mechanisms and weird sudden and inexplicable "boosts" in CDC all cause mortality in December, I'm completely at a loss for doing any meaningful analysis of covid data.

Until the CDC releases anonymized source data, we won't be able to perform analysis that doesn't look like confirmation bias.

Using power to generate work is not what happens in air conditioning. With air conditioning, you are moving heat from one spot to another (another word for it: "heat pump"). That is why it's over 100% efficient.

Generating economic value from work that the OP describes would not be "air conditioning" it would be converting heat into work -- which cannot be over 100% efficient, and in fact would be significantly less than 100% efficient at the temperatures we know.

Removing that heat using a heat pump would require some off-world reservoir of cold, which doesn't exist. The reservoir of cold that we are using now (and in any conceivable future) is the earth itself, which is what the parent comment means by "you can't use the work."
Personally, I think perhaps we are the machine, right now. Everything that has happened now has already happened, and we’re just reliving it. Who knows what iteration of the loop we might be on right now.

Perhaps on our first run free will was much more obvious and abundant, in ways that we simply can’t even imagine right now, kind of like trying to imagine light when you’re born blind. However, the end result still ends up being exactly what you experience now, minus the running dialog of free will.

Our body is controlled by our mind, and our mind is controlled by our consciousness, which is capable of observing and altering our mind’s thoughts. But as far as I can tell, we don’t seem to have any mechanism for “observing” our consciousness. That is the missing freewill component, which may have only existed in our first run.
