I would rather see some push towards high temperature reactors. Whether gas cooled or molten salt. Point is it that if we have high temperature differentials we can more easily do thermal storage or produce hydrogen. Both are kind of important combos for renewable energy.

Wind, solar, battery and some kind of variant of hydrogen economy is bound to stay/evolve and nuclear light to be built with that in mind so it can be more of a complementary technology rather than living in an alternative universe.

What are some keywords (ie. "gnu", "word embeddings", "parenting", `${your_country}`) you track everyday and do you only use HN or HNAlgolia to watch them?

Yeah, even better.
It's Russia we're talking about. In Russia, the default mode of answering any complaint is "it's your own fault, we're not responsible, go away". It's not only on the big political scene - it's everywhere, from a village grocery store to a national federation. If you admit any mistake and any responsibility for anything, you're an idiot and a "loch" (pronounced the same as Scottish lake, but means a person to be taken advantage of, one that is too stupid to take care of oneself and deserves to be cheated and mistreated). It's a culture-wide thing. And denying responsibility and lying is not considered really shameful in such situation - it's the expected behavior and getting away with it is a sign you are powerful and worthy of respect.

I got about 40% in and got bored. He's mostly just trying to rephrase the questions asked to him and shifts the topic to whatever he wants to talk about.

Some of the stuff I found somewhat interesting and realistic -- like his claim that many end-states of systems are predetermined due to us clearly seeing their inputs but we still want those end-states to be different, which causes us misery -- but most of his words are kind of shallow and no actual solution is proposed.

I get the idea: I can't change the world so I should change my perception of it in order to avoid misery. I get that and partially subscribe to it. But I'm not ready to become like one of these stoners with moronic sheepish smiles: "the world is how it is, man, don't worry about it".

So none of us should ever attempt a change in the world then? I don't buy it.

Thus, not my thing for the moment.

I've used flutter for several years. Years before that I wrote in Dart for web and native work. I've loved flutters ability to reach multiple platforms with the same codebase and still look great. My small-ish team has been responsible for several clients across multiple platforms and using flutter is letting us focus more on what we want to build, not where.

If I could upvote this a hundred times. It is easy to mock the public for not getting nuclear power and being paranoid.

People today have really forgotten how much people got lied to constantly about nuclear power. France which they like to pull out as this amazing nuclear country built all the reactors they hype up by faking safety checks on nuclear reactors.

It is just really naive to assume every nuclear plant is run by the books.

People complain about over regulation of the nuclear industry. Yeah… they kind of brought that upon themselves.

Disappointed in the tone of the comments so far. Here's what I took from the article.

The author wasn't saying this was _good_, they were saying it was _interesting_. Professional curiosity and learning how a complex app uses CSS Grid (and Flexbox) at scale.

Indeed, their own conclusion was:

> That’s it for this exploration. I enjoyed looking at such unique and fun usage for both Flexbox and Grid. It’s inspiring to see that in a tool we’ll use, and for me, it inspired me to explore even more use cases for the CSS tools we’ve.

"Exploration", "fun usage", "inspiring". By all means come in with your preconceptions of Figma but nonetheless we should encourage this sort of analysis.

I have no particular love for Figma as a product but I'd guess there aren't many other examples of CSS Grid being used at such scale, as a critical path application for people whose job relies on it, with a relatively low adoption of CSS Grid, particularly to the extent they seem to have used it.

There's virtue Boring Tech, but let's encourage the inverse too.

> I think you're saying that all physically measurable quantities are rational numbers with terminating decimal expansions.

No, this most certainly isn't true.

For example, take a meter defined (as SI does) as a fraction of the speed of light.

Now, for every length in the universe to be a rational fraction of this length is most certainly not true, because lengths, under relativity, form a continuum. Any speed is possible, so any length (via contraction) is possible.

There'd be no physical reason all physical processes would be constrained to a subset of rational grid points - things can move freely.

Heck, if all physical quantities are rational, are you claiming velocities only occur as rational numbers? That time is only rational numbers?

It's far more likely that they'd be irrational, and our man made units are the weird things.

Suppose two diagonal corners of a square with rational sides are somehow physically exact.... What is the physical diagonal length?

Oh yeah, irrational.

So no, physics isn't formed from rational numbers.

It was a rhetorical question to prompt parent poster to reconsider.

> I can imagine a vector, [1,1,1] in cartesian space. Scale that vector by c and you are now going light speed in all three spatial dimensions.

But my point was if look at the magnitude or such a vector it would be >c and therefore exceed the speed limit of c.

There’s a very good reason to prefer .tar.gz (or xz or whatever) to .zip: tar.gz files deliver better compression (ranging from “marginally better” to “significantly better” depending on what you’re compressing).

In a .zip, the files are each compressed individually using DEFLATE and then concatenated to create an archive, whereas in a .tar.gz the files are first concatenated into a .tar archive and then DEFLATEd all together.

Because of this, a .tar.gz often achieves much better compression on archives containing many small files, because the compression algorithm can eliminate redundancies across files. The downside is that you can’t decompress an individual file without decompressing every preceding file in the stream, because DEFLATE does not support random access. (And so tar’s lack of index is an advantage here; an index would not be useful if you can’t seek.)

This is why e.g. open source software downloads often use .tar.gz. A source code archive has hundreds or thousands of tiny text files with a ton of redundancy between files in variable & function names, keywords, common code snippets/patterns, etc., so tar.gz delivers significantly better compression than zip. And there’s little use for random access of individual files, since all the files need to be extracted in order to compile the program anyway.

The abbreviation “tape archive” may be anachronistic nowadays, but the performance cbaracteristics of a tape drive — namely, fast sequential access but absolutely awful random access — coincide with the performance characteristics of compression algorithms. So an archive format designed for packaging files up to be stored on a tape is perfect for packaging files up to be compressed.
valid economic demand does not equal "good".

increasing demand on a highway gets more people to where they are going, but if the destination doesn't have more parking spots, you've caused an imbalance in the system. same as the electrical generation - if it suddenly becomes absurdly cheap to manufacture more consumer goods, we've just increased the pressure on the whole system that needs to manage the rest of the lifecycle of those goods after manufacture. sure, some people will make money, but that's not the point.
Thanks I’ll dig into it. Looks like a decent study.
Note how you see yourself and you allies as human chess players, and your arguments as thoughtful chess moves, but your opponents as mindless pigeons and their arguments as "shitting" and in need to be excluded from consideration entirely.

Would they be inclined to seek a reasonable compromise with you?

It's a lot easier to work around poor male fertility than poor female fertility. IUI is often enough, IVF has a high success rate if the sperm is the only problem (they can do some extremely invasive procedures to force the sperm DNA into an egg)

The first part, the taste of immense profit, sure. But the idea that people are thinking of profits on the timescale of "this decade" is almost laughable, given the situation we are already in with climate change.

A much more rational explanation would be "they are trying to grab as much cash as they can right now, for as long as people believe that this is a thing that we should be doing, and may be possible", regardless of whether it's a good idea (it isn't), or whether it would work (doesn't look like it). But sure, maybe they are completely sincere and really believe in it all, who knows?

But the issue isn't just that "all of the comforts of modern society require the expenditure of some form of energy" it's also the case that "exponentially increasing energy expenditure is just accelerating the rate at which we are asset stripping and polluting the earth" and the latter continues to be true even if we stop emitting CO2.

I think it should now be apparent to all that comfort-seeking and suicide are essentially the same process (ask any addict), at least for the definitions of "comfort" that our current political and economic system are organised around. Of course, quite a lot of people still do not experience a lot of "comfort" even with the practically limitless energy that we have from fossil fuels.

Edit: sorry for the ramble, but to summarize, I think you give people too much credit to imagine they can design such a complex money printer with a 10 year plan, and if they could plan to that timescale, they are probably going to see that society so far in to collapse by then, that even with infinite energy, there will not be much value in the money that it prints.
Synthetic hydrocarbons may be the stepping stone civilisation needs, until a better way of storing renewable energy at grid scale is invented. If you don't like them for unspecified reasons, and don't propose a viable alternative, you're not contributing to the debate.

That’s because it doesn’t actually rain that much in Seattle. A quarter inch of rain dries quickly no matter where you are.

Everyone thinks it rains tons in Seattle. It rains constantly, but it doesn’t rain tons.

The north end of Vancouver Island gets 3.5x as much rain per year as Seattle. The temperate rainforest plants do fine in Seattle because it only dries out in the summer. The rest of the year it’s just damp all the time.
This is not true. Fission reactors have to deal with decay heat, not fission reactions when cooling is lost. This can be managed. Fusion reactors also have decay heat. In new reactors like the Micro Modular Reactor, it's actually less decay heat than a fusion power plant. Please please read my post :https://lvenneri.com/blog/ConFusion#financial-risk-of-powerp...
But that safety comes in large parts from strict regulations which have made nuclear power very expensive. Many seem to live in this alternative reality where we can have bit super safe, lightly regulated and cheap nuclear.

I am afraid we can only have one of those attributes.

And figuring out how to build cheap nuclear in the West is actually a pretty complex thing. The US cannot even figure out why their roads and railroads cost many times that of other countries. If they cannot figure that out, then how are they going to solve a far trickier problem?

"Choice" is a weasel word here. You could call the Criminal Code "anti-choice" - because it limits choices of a wannabe criminal by threatening to put them in jail if they do things that are prohibited by the code. And there's not a word of lie in it - the code limits your choices. But this is a description so reduced that the reduction itself becomes the lie - you throw out the important part, that the choices we want to restrict are restricted for an important reason, not just because we hate people having choice. Proper term would be "anti-abortion" if the person opposes abortion, not "anti-choice" - because they do not oppose choice as a principle, they oppose one specific choice, and it's a crucial distinction in this case.
Come on, there is no way they are that cartoonish.
I think there's ample evidence supporting the "already obese" part.
I remember reading somewhere about a theory that there might be a scientific explanation for disease cures allegedly produced by bathing in the holy waters of some rivers in India.

The general idea was that that the amount and diversity of bacteria support phages, which are viruses that attack bacteria, and so perhaps these could cure some bacterial illnesses.

"Phage therapy" seems to be a thing that is occasionally mentioned as a non-western (Russian?) treatment for illness that somehow never gets commercialized by the big drug companies. Maybe because it has to be customized for each application and maybe because it doesn't really work that well.

There is zero risk, none, to government regulatory bodies when they say no. Saying yes is putting your ass on the line. The NRC has absolutely no reason to say yes to anything and there is a positive feedback loop for them to regulate nuclear out of existence in the US.

If that was the case Europeans wouldn’t have been able to use services like Facebook or iCloud.

> In fact the European Court of Justice declared that illegal

For example, Sweden did it shortly after an ISP Bahnhof advertised to its customers that it would not save logs. What seemed at the time to have fuelled this whole thing was mostly entertainment companies pushing these policies against European countries to crack down on piracy. Obviously an unsuccessful project. Many of our politicians traded our freedoms for the sake of the entertainment industry not losing money (supposedly). It didn’t serve its purpose, rather it just gave the government(s) more power over the people.
Likely because of significant overrepresentation in today's media/news.
