Good thing nuclear doesn't produce hazardous waste we need to store safely for thousands of years. That would be a pretty horrible, long term risk.

But OTOH who gives a fsck about generations to come, storing the waste safely while I'm still alive should be doable.
You can help by running a Snowflake proxy (which merely functions as a gateway to the Tor Network, so you don't need to worry as no traffic exits from your IP) if you're in a country that doesn't censor Tor. You can either run the standalone Snowflake proxy:

Well, to be clear it was a low (academic) effort comment intended to inspire curiosity on the subject to encourage others who were truly interested to do their own reading on the subject.

I was fully aware of the academic flaws in my original comment, and indeed phrased it that way intentionally so it could be construed only as what it was... anecdotal evidence with an appeal to weak / questionable authority.

I assumed that those who took it upon themselves to read it would be capable of understanding these things and either conclude that it held (no) merit in light of their own first-hand knowledge, or, required further independent investigation to validate.

Somehow, intentions of leaving a breadcrumb for the curious reader has turned into these far more detailed responses to individuals who, by my own interpretation, understood the sentiment and yet still choose to engage it as if it was something else.

You can't talk about crime statistics without talking about whether people are actually reporting crimes at the same rate.

It's entirely possible that a city with a progressive DA that doesn't prosecute certain types of crimes sufficiently or judges that don't actually pull criminals off the streets, end up with a social atmosphere where citizens don't bother reporting crime as much, because they know nothing will be done about it anyway.

I don’t agree it’s tautological. His theory had predictive power.
While this is an overall good development, and I wish the company luck. Its really not the solution.

While scale is what killed nuclear, the people who initially decided on scale, did so for good reason. You lose a huge amount if you scale down, specially with PWRs.

These small PWRs try to get some of that efficiency back with factory production, but at best it just evens out. The advantage is the added flexibility. So I don't think that putting traditional PWR in a tube is really any kind of series solution to transform our energy system.

However there are good things coming out of this. For example, NuScale went threw a process managing multiple reactors from the same control room. That is the same thing that essentially all GenIV reactors want to do as well. Having managed to get that concept threw the regulator will make it massively easier for anybody that follows.

Its a damn shame that we don't have GenIV reactors since the 80s. We had the technology and every reason to use it. We could be living in a nuclear age right now, and I consider it the largest failure of humanity that we failed to do so. People in 100 years will look back and think we were insane that we did not use the technology we discovered.

Very male dominated. The culture is not good, men speak fast, often cut each other off and finish each other's sentences. There's a bit of blame and other negativity. I think women would probably find it uncomfortable if watching it on a TV. When there was a woman working with us, she was often put on a pedestal, given unequal room to talk but otherwise ignored and generally had lower expectations on her projects. I don't really know what to make of it, but probably we ought to change how we interact, as it's not approachable by someone who isn't also in a cutthroat mode where they are competing for airtime. I'm not sure why people treated a woman differently either; many of the men in the office have partners, I wonder if that was a factor.
Very well put. I should’ve mentioned it myself.

This brings up another point I hope someone tries to solve in programming. Every time a new language comes out we have to recreate millions of baseline libraries and it just sucks. As a dev I want to be able to make use of great libraries oblivious to what they are created with.

Yes, this is fantastic and accurate. It captures exactly the uncertainty that underpins this type of reasoning.

Abductive reasoning is usually an evidence-gathering process, so that we can narrow down the set of inferences that still produce meaningful conclusions.

Thus "once you've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth."
> When you're terrified of Covid, so you suspend most of your activities and spend two years mostly staying home, gaining 50 pounds and decimating your fitness which drastically increases your risk of cardiovascular disease and overall significantly increasing your likelihood of dying young far in excess of the acute risk that Covid actually posed to your demographic.

This example (that I suspect you shoe-horned in to rant) undermines, but also fully demonstrates, your entire point because you've just casually and conveniently ignored the reduced risk _to society as a whole_. I.e., those actually vulnerable from getting sick in the first instance, but further still overwhelming the health and welfare services to the detriment of *everybody*.

I did document administrative procedures as click here, click there, check that box, click there again. I also document them as commands that can be copy / pasted, even on my laptop. I'd say that GUI administration of a local machine is nice for casual tssks, but a waste of time for repetitive tasks and when I feel that I might need to do it again in future. A command line is much more reproducible. It's dconf vs gsettings.
Isn't this true of all new strains of all contagious pathogens? They are constantly undergoing change. We estimate low probability that mutated viruses or bacteria descended from strains we are familiar with will have dramatically more harmful long-term effects, but we don't actually know for certain that any given year's new strains won't have very different risk profiles until much later. We can make probabilistic models based on historical data, but they are unavoidably vulnerable to underestimating the risk of black swan events.

One could argue that certain features of covid make it riskier with regard to long-term effects, but that is not a proposition that is well developed in the public conversation, especially by proponents of the zoonosis hypothesis. The lab origin hypothesis with its accompanying assumptions of serial passage and direct gene modification would in my eyes strengthen the case that covid's long-term effects were less likely to conform to historical data on other viral infections, though interestingly the intersection of those who find the lab origin more convincing with those who have serious concerns about long-term harms is a pretty small set.
If you have a whole society that mostly doesn't have inherent respect for social norms or laws, then it would be incredibly difficult to enforce those norms or laws effectively. You'd need a police state. Massive levels of surveilance. And how could you even trust the police themselves, if people generally don't respect social norms or laws? Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?

It is very much not there the post only says [removed by reddit]

This whole thread is pure gold.
It cuts both ways. You lose the scale, but its more modular.

Putting a conventional PWR in such a modular system isn't a silver bullet and has you to be proven to actually be cheaper and a game changer.

If you simply want 1.5GW it might be simpler to just put a single PWR there rather then like 5 of them.

I would say real GenIV modular reactors are the silver bullet, this is a step in the right direction.

That’s because Darwin’s is an observation of self-replicating systems in general and not an abstract idea or new concept. It’s tautological that the most successful self-replicating systems are the ones most successful at self-replicating. Fitness is by definition being successful at dealing with the environment in regards to self-replication. Darwin’s in the general sense is in my opinion not a theory but a fundamental observation of what is. The only theory is that there’s a continuous lineage of living systems that evolved one into one other. But that’s more of a teleological issue and can be understood as a theory subject to rejection.

> They really don’t, because vehicles are frequently driven by people who did not register them.

Someone else driving your car doesn’t prevent the police from compelling you to tell them who drove your car. The point is the police can come to you. Different story if the car’s stolen, of course, but license plates in fact are used often as the first point of contact to identify drivers, regardless of whether it is their car. Without the plate, there might be nothing to go on, right?

Your other corrections are valid, I was imprecise with my point. Do you agree with parent that plates are pointless? I was only trying to point out the utility and reasons for the existing system of licensing and registration, plates, IDs, and stickers. I can see parent is making more of a political statement than one of actual utility, but maybe also important to keep in mind that purpose and utility of the various parts of this scheme look different depending on who you are.

> present an order of magnitude more risk than others

The data really doesn't bear this point out, or the category of drivers your considering are such a small part of the total that changing their behavior will have almost no noticeable impact on the total.

Further.. at least in the US, the majority of fatal accidents are single vehicle accidents where the driver was impaired either by alcohol or other drugs. You don't really need to mine data from the car to figure out who and who isn't the problem here.

> With cars and their drivers killing more than a million people every year,

That's uncharitable. Bad road design and failure to make protected pedestrian paths (16% of all fatalities in the US are pedestrians) definitely deserve some credit here too.

> a little constructive feedback would be a major help to avoid so many tragedies.

Based on US data: If you drink and drive you should be revoked for 10 years. It should be illegal to give people under 24 vehicles with more than 250hp, or any power level with a turbo.
Ah, libertarianism coupled with if you cannot solve every case then you shouldn't solve any case.

I can separate the benefits from the bad. The road without rules is a net loss for everyone. Companies and individuals would gladly save on getting inspections if it saved them a few dollars at risk to everyone on the road when their bald tires and bad brakes finally failed them.
I don't understand it though. What trust can you derive from the blockchain? If a user visits my site and says "I'm jeroenhd, Spooky23 verified it" then that means absolutely nothing to me. The blockchain may be unalterable (without hard forks, at least) but there's no reason why I'd trust the blockchain more than a piece of paper that says "I'm 18 you can sell me booze".

>No, I did not. The bot would not punish the user in any way, it would simply hide the comment from other users without even informing the OP.

This is shadowbanning, and is a very bad feature of Reddit. If someone's comment or post is removed, that person ought to a) be notified or, at least, b) get the chance to see for himself that it has been removed. Fooling the poster into thinking that all is well is terrible from both UI/UX and general human being perspectives.

>I'm not sure if you're understanding the situation, the bot would remove comments containing the n-word, r-word and other very insulting slurs

Thinking that shadowbanning is a good thing is really retarded.
This is a misunderstanding, I believe.

What people need to understand is that 'words have consequences'. The 'truth' isn't that important in communications because people can't discern it.

People don't know, and often do not care what the truth is.

Putin, Xi etc. can easily convince millions of Europeans of their view of the world, which will mostly be based on lies. It's a key pillar of their respective foreign policies.

That disinformation has material effects in civil culture.

So put another way: we don't want to 'completely ban' content from Russia, but rather, not make it part of the populist lexicon.

It's a bit like removing a TV station from broadcasting as one of the 'major channels'.

If Europeans conscientiously choose want to get RT, they can. But the West shouldn't allow Russia or China to broadcast directly into people's homes willy nilly. My god man.

Information is by far the most powerful weapon.

If either Putin or Xi lost their power to censor, their respective governments would collapse, frankly I suggest both of them would be literally dead. Very quickly, within a few months.

The internet is giving us the biggest lesson in 'Critical Theory' imaginable (i.e. competing narratives) and of course, we have our own narratives (and internally huge competition over them), but still, some truths are a bit better than others.

Technically this tool mostly does exist already with the OpenAPI specification if we're talking about REST APIs. If you as the API provider put in the leg work to create a very detailed specification which is a YAML file, you can generate programming language specific SDKs out of it as long as the language has an OpenAPI library to consume this spec in an accurate way.

Stripe has publicly mentioned[0] they mostly use this spec to generate their SDKs (even as of a few years ago), but I guess auto-generated code still requires some developer time and there's a quality assurance level of "hey we're dedicated to internally supporting this". It's a huge deal having a provider internally support your language's SDK.

It seems like these things could perform much better if the modeling was deliberately decomposed more and there was less emphasis on doing everything in one parallel step.

For example, translating the visual sampling into a 3d model first.
Or maybe some neural representations that can generate the 3d models. Then train the movement on that rather than raw pixels.

Similarly, for textual prompts of interactions, first create a model that relates the word embedding to the same 3d modeling and physics interactions.

Obviously much easier said than done.

Which 'this' do you mean? There is the 'this' where other people buy stupid things (meaning 'smart' things, in the marketing terminology we've had foisted upon us), and there is the 'this' where I can't buy what I want. Phones and TVs are examples of both, to be sure; but, as I mentioned in the comment to which you are responding, these two phenomena seem different, though linked, and it's not clear to me that the former is inherently bad.

I've had an issue where mdns transmit would cease after X minutes uptime on windows. Nothing even shows up in Wireshark. I'm still not sure why but I'm assuming the NIC driver for windows didn't like it. Switching from wifi to ethernet fixed the problem. Switching to Linux (same machine) also fixed the problem.

Oh and it was only certain multicast udp that was affected. Regular ip broadcast still worked.
Good. I would be sad to learn that they had closed.
Yup and also even if your code is right you are dependent on external parties (the marketdata provider and the exchange in this case) to do things correctly and often their code will have bugs or their people will make random fatfinger errors etc.

Honestly, as a rubyist, I more and more often run into new "SDKs" that don't have an official ruby version supported! Ruby is no longer always considered popular enough to get an SDK from a vendor.

I think the fundamental truth here is that so much of writing software these days is having open source to rely on. That applies to things like an SDK for a vendor API, but also applies to things like consolidating community effort on one approach to back-end web app -- instead of having a bunch of not really mature options, and also so effort can be consolidated on building additional things that work with that popular tool.

I don't think these two areas are actually related like the OP does -- if we can just reach consensus on a web framework, then somehow we'll get things like a Stripe SDK, I'm not sure about that.... but I think the general challenge of "how do we get a sustainable, supported, mature/polished open source ecosystem of software that we can use that works together" is kind something we don't really understand, how does that happen (or not) for a new language? I don't think it's just "well, if we only get popular enough it'll happen on it's own", and of course there is a chicken and egg issue there too.
