> if people really cared the market should react to it and have products to cater to those needs

I think the current incentive has warped the market beyond repair for certain products.

Take TV for example, non-smart TVs cost the same or more than smart TVs because manufacturers can subsidise smart TVs’ cost by selling or utilising data. Not to mention other “benefits” like locking consumers into their ecosystem: a lot of Korean newly weds buy all Samsung or all LG for electronics for this reason. With all these incentives, it makes sense for the companies to only make smart TVs.

We need regulations to offset these incentives. There most be a real tangible cost to collecting data and appliances should be required to use open protocols. Then it will make more sense for manufacturers to make just normal TVs that can compete with smart TV.

Will any of this happen? Probably not.
There you go, arguing a trivial point at length instead of doing interesting math. This is why tau is not worth anyone’s time. There’s no one weird trick to understanding math.
You didn't ask me, but my input is that the two most obvious to me are: open source, so the effort can be vetted in good faith--or a insured guarante, so the consequences can be abated
I wonder if TPV could be used instead of a turbine?

> Engineers at MIT and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) have designed a heat engine with no moving parts. Their new demonstrations show that it converts heat to electricity with over 40 percent efficiency — a performance better than that of traditional steam turbines.
I am extremely proficient in LaTeX, but at one point I had to turn in a group project typeset in LaTeX with three others who had no knowledge of how LaTeX worked.

This was my solution exactly. Force everyone to follow Microsoft's build styling tools and use equation editor. Then the day before we turned it in, I installed the LaTeX fonts and updated the styles and our professor had no idea.

I'm somewhat ashamed to admit I stopped using LaTeX (and LyX) after that for projects... especially once I realized equation editor had a built in LaTeX mode.

>Russians at large know perfectly well that their media is censored and the government is corrupt. They just don't care.

How does it get to this point? I live in a country with a fairly corrupt government with a free media(South Africa) and most people rank corruption as the biggest problem facing SA after crime.
..the big government projects to create jobs have failed due to above corruption & a low skill workforce. Plenty natural resources being dug out but instead of oligarchs we have Anglo American &other multinational mining companies taking most the profit&on ward processing.

But for the general population to really not care about censorship,war&corrupt government, surely these are basic values we take for granted as humans? &So long as we have encryption, tor & VPNs at our disposal, citizens of all nations can transcend the self serving narrative pushed by governments.

We once had a reading club at Google on the “Beautiful Architecture” book. I didn’t necessarily agree with all the claims of beauty, so it was nice to read it in a book club setting. Beauty is in the eye of the maintainer! :)
Thanks for the reply Sean.

You're probably right about people working on what interests them.

I may have started Clojure during the "all-Clojure" years and failed to recognize the shift.
Punishment is a form of compensation of the damage inflicted.

The perpetrator of a,crime must compensate the damage to the victim(s), at a somehow excessive rate to prevent crime from being a viable business model.

This is relatively simple (though not easy) for property-related crimes. It's much harder for crimes like battery or rape.

That said, staying in a prison is about the least productive way to compensate, or to repent. Prisons, as seen in USA, should be abolished and replaced with other institutions.

Property crimes can be paid for with labor, with less limitations of freedoms than in a prison. Education should be provided not just for rehabilitation (which is a worthy aim), but to also produce the compensation faster, while earning the basic upkeep.

Non-property crimes should likely be paid for in repentance work, on top of material compensation work: by working at places that expose the perpetrator to the woes of people who suffered through consequences relevant to the crime. Maybe something like menial work at a hospice.
I’ve been asked not to share the name. It wasn’t a big extension though, only a few million installs.

FWIW, they put it up for sale as a lark, not intending to actually sell it, on some business sales/acquisitions/mergers site and got more than their asking price.
Go ahead. I am interested in the numbers that would support your theory. My k owledge is that trains are by at leasy a magnitude more efficie t than trucks.
Doesn't seem easy to scale. If you wanted to build a factory or something with this you are going to need enough to make it worth investing in building them in a reliable and consistent way.
Was helping an org migrate off of CloudFoundry and Grunt gave us no end of trouble. In the end, we wound up building with Node 8(!) and then praying that everything would still work with a 12.x runtime.
Especially the screen. I mean you have to rip off the screen to get to the internals. Lots of people already have cracked screens and it is hard to put them back on without making the cracks even bigger. A small crack with no chromatic effects can easily make those from the prying. Why would you not want to validate the quality of the screen after you have just been wrestling with it?
I haven't checked the geological suitability, but assuming you're right about that, putting the waste in those places seems perfectly fine to me.

This is the same b.s. they use for enviornmentalism. Blame individuals part instead of corporate and government policy. I would be glad to discuss legislative change, changes in government even armed and violent change but I will not vote by wallet, habits or employment because that is not my responsibility. Privileged entities like corporations are regulated and have no rights, if they are not being regulated properly then the regulators or legislators need to be held accountable.
I like “Effective Python” similarly, though its more about micro codebase decisions than macro (architecture) decisions.

How do you figure?? The conclusion says

> However, the higher clocks require more power and a maximum performance advantage of 18 % in multi-core scenarios is result of around 40 % higher power consumption, so the CPU of the new M2 is not as efficient as the M1 anymore.

"...not being mentally developed enough to know the long term effects of their decisions"

This is false. You question ask a minor about the consequences of a procedure and judge if they understand it by how they respond.

But it's clear you, personally, are not capable of doing such a thing because you would instead prefer gaslighting.

You can't have that argument both ways. China is building the world's crap, and still has less emissions per capita than the US with its service industry.

Ouch, so shouty.

IMO the future of energy is decentralisation not centralisation.

One of the reasons I do not think nuclear fits. It is impossible to handle nuclear in anything other than huge establishments (I feel this proposal for mas produced nuclear plants is going to end in tears).

The future is local.
Didn't Signal do something like this and get in trouble?[0] I honestly don't know much about domain fronting so if this is something completely different than I'd appreciate an explanation. I do know that my friends in China are unable to use Signal, so I figure something is up.

So.... A complete index of my site is too large...

So I could chunk the index up... For example, one index for words beginning with each letter of the alphabet. I could host the index for words beginning with 'a' at mysite.com/search/a

But I could do yet smaller indexes! I could make one index for each word. Ie. use the URL mysite.com/search/abacus

We could call these mini-indexes search result pages...
comex mentions this above. It's a nice hack, but it doesn't actually fix the problem I was talking about, you can give this attribute to a data member, which allows you to do the ZST marker type trick that is available in other languages, but you can't apply the attribute (at least, not as documented) to a type itself, those empty tuples are obliged to take up one byte each.
Isn't that due to scale of production? It does not take that much oat to make the milk. And cow milk gets bad fast and should be alot more expensive than cow milk really.
Providing some additional context. There is no statistics to back up the numbers and it's impossible to make one at the moment. It's rather how informed people in Russia feel plus some anecdata.

> As I understand it, a ton of Russians, especially older ones, just rely on TV and print media for news, and those are much more tightly controlled by the Kremlin.

All the news sources that are still not blocked either have a hand in their asses or are about to get blocked. They are completely controled by the Kremlin. Much more tightly is an understatement here. Unfortunately, so is 'a ton'. I'll try to elaborate.

Moscow, St. Petersburg, and the cities around them, have relatively high percentage of well-educated people with sufficient technical competency and mindfulness to avoid the censorship. I'd say that would be at least a good half of the population of these cities, which amounts (very roughly) to 10M. These people would try to find some facts, and form something resembling a picture of what's really happening.

Not too bad, really, but the thing is, I'd be surprised if there is another 20M across the rest of the country (the population is approx. 145M as of 2022). The farther you go from the big cities the faster the freethinkers' (tongue-in-cheek term) percentage declines. When the government says that 90% of the population 'supports' the war, I'm afraid it's not that far from truth.

What 'supports' means, though? As it seems, in reality, it means that the people aren't really bothered by the war all that much because they don't consider the country to be (much of?) an agressor. In small cities, people live in poverty and the only thing that's used to hold them together is the TV which gives the hope that some day life is going to get better. But there, of course, are a few hurdles to overcome. The current hurdle is to 'win against Ukraine'. Based on numerous interviews and personal interactions, that's what common folks really think.

I believe that they (most of them anyway) are not bad people, but merely simple and gullible. And when the president says that zombie-nazis were about to attack motherland, well, of course they praise the guy who sent the rockets their way thus saving the day. That's the gist of the propaganda, by the way.

As for the older people (even well-educated ones), can confirm. First of all, they are stubborn and know better. And they just can't believe that TV isn't a good source of information on the matter. My older relatives are like that and I don't really know how to convince them to think otherwise. As far as I'm concerned, no one has figured that out yet. For every bit of evidence TV has a piece of counter-evidence. You try counter that. I've taught them how to read independent news, but they don't trust them.

edit: brainfart with understatement/overstatement in the beginning of the post
That's because China doesn't care about the environment when they make things. If the US and China made the same quantity of the same good, I expect China would produce a lot more emissions in the process.
Is the YAML language runtime imperative?

It’s an important distinction to make because passionate CDK/Terraform/CloudFormation defenders use the dichotomy to dismiss different tools.
I just checked my most recent frontend project that uses Typescript as much as possible. Here's how it works:

- src/.ts: Compile with esbuild in webpack

- tests/.test.ts: Compiled with babel

- jest.config.ts: Compiled with ts-node

- webpack.config.ts: Compiled with ts-node

In an ideal world, one tool should do everything but I doubt that will ever happen
In other words, he spoke to children as if they are inexperienced humans.

When speaking to children, adults often start with the assumption that children are inferior in some way to adults and therefore they can't be spoken to in a rational way. On the contrary, Mr. Rogers spoke to children in a way that didn't condescend, and did so effectively, not shoving too many ideas into a single statement or making his audience feel shame for not initially knowing something.

Also note that in method 9, he provides a rationale for the lesson.

> It is important to try to listen to them, and listening is an important part of growing.

This might seem innocuous, but "because I say so" really isn't a good explanation for either children or adults. Relating the lesson to something that most children want, to grow, is both truthful and respectful.
allotments are supposed to be for you to grow food for your own consumption, rather than as commercial small holdings

Yes, this is the exact point I am making.
Yeah it works way better to establish the fact that you're the alpha dog via some basic obedience involved in feeding and stuff like that, then build up the dog to want your approval, establish boundaries around things like playtime, give the dog adequate "jobs" and stimulation for the breed so its not bored and anxious, etc. One the dogs needs are all met like that within some structure you're going to have a way happier dog compared to not understanding why the dog is acting out and having to tell it 'no' and discipline it all the time. That requires a commitment from the human a well though, it isn't a one-way street.

Which is more less how society should treat humans as well.

If we're going to have an article called "Why Punish?" there should really be a companion article on "Why Steal?" And given the right conditions literally every one of us will steal to survive. Every single one of us are still just animals at our core anyway, that means you dear reader.

Versioned pages backed by content-addressed store and transactions over the page index rather than pages! That totally makes sense to me.

Before you managed to produce mvsqlite, I was wondering if it is possible to rebase https://github.com/dolthub/dolt content-addressed page store(implemented with ProllyTree over a standard OS FS) onto FDB, so that there will be a MySQL-compat DB with similar properties to mvsqlite where actual page updates can be done outside FDB transactions to overcome 5sec FDB limit. Apparently, you already materialized a similar idea in a more sophisticated, practical, and complete way.

Thanks a lot for clarifying and keep up the great work. Your work is totally awesome!
>The real flaw in the argument of the parent is, that in a direct comparison between Singapure and Norway Norway still wins: If roughly the same recidivism rates are achieved in a very punitive and a very supportive system, the supportive system is superior according to utilitarian principles.

Wouldn't that depend on subjectively balancing costs and benefits of the other involved factors? For example, Singapore's system may (or may not, frankly I don't know and it's not important to the logical point I'm making) cost less than Norway's system. In that case, the question would be what value the society places on finding solutions that are supportive rather than punitive.

Right?

Rob English is an interesting character. On one hand, he has a head full of hair, a sexier smile than Tom Cruise, and a membership website offering subscription-based anti-hairloss treatments. I.e all the traits of a snake oil salesman. On the other hand, he has published in peer-reviewed journals, his summaries of the science seem legit, and, despite their best efforts, none of his detractors have been able to convincingly debunk him. I really don't know what to think... If massaging your scalp is all it takes to keep your hair, sign me up.
You shouldn't leave it there, because that accident has nothing to do with cost scaling.

Technically, yes. Practically, well: https://blog.torproject.org/state-of-ipv6-support-tor-networ...

However, Google reports a mere 3.51% IPv6 usage (compared to 51% in the USA) so I don't know how practical IPv6 would be even if all Tor nodes were fully usable over IPv6.
Unfortunately, neither DoT nor DoH have any great features for client authorization. Client certificates would have been great.

On DoH you could put an API token in the URL. On DoT you could encode something similar in the `Host` header (though this isn't really secure as the SNI is retrievable so questionable how effective it really is and I'm not even sure if this is achievable on the edge runtimes).

Adding the DoH-token feature could still make sense, I guess? Unfortunately AFAIK Android supports only DoT, not DoH.

One big advantage of typescript with respect to the configuration options is that you can look at the output js and see what the options are producing (with a low barrier to entry - the output is easily readable js aside from some of the older targets + async keyword)

The type system is super flexible and I agree it takes time to learn, but you can get a lot of value out of the basics from day one.

I've not actually tried this but I suspect even with the most lenient configuration and no type annotations you'd still get limited value over plain js through type inference and flagging of obvious bugs

Solar efficiency and cost would have been where they are today by 1990, and we would not now be facing imminent, impending Climatic Catastrophe. Energy during ie past 30 years would have been radically cheaper. Coal plants and nuke plants alike would have been shuttered as unsustainable, not for their CO2 but just because they cost too damn much.

But here we are, instead. Thank Reagan. And Bush. And Bush, again.

Lamport says that either pronunciation is acceptable, and back when he gave talks about LaTeX, he would carefully switch back and forth between "ay" and "ah" each time he uttered "LaTeX". Or so he claims.
Although these times seem less fair, I feel that these societies made more logical sense when you consider people's beliefs at the time. For example, people thought that kings were divine beings chosen by god(s) so that justified why they had all this power, status and wealth. Nowadays it's difficult to make sense of why things are they way they are... Once you factor out the religious framework and you factor out the false narratives about success and power being attained as the result of hard or intelligent work... The modern social structure doesn't seem to make any sense.

It all seems to be about luck these days. Why should randomness determine everything and why should we pretend that our social structures are based on anything but meaningless randomness? Part of the mental illness of modern society is that we're constantly pretending that random events mean something.
