that doesn't speak to the severity of the consequences of the collision.

So speak to it instead of posting disingenuous hypotheticals. For instance in San Francisco it's not that hard to find examples of Muni or Caltrain colliding with other vehicles.

Here's a vintage streetcar colliding with a semi. Three injuries. None life threatening. One treated at the scene (so presumably more minor).

Here's a bus vs streetcar. No apparent injuries and the bus wasn't even taken out of service.

Here was a terrible accident. Tram vs bus. Fifteen people injured. As the SFFD chief put it nobody was seriously injured.

Surely a car vs a tram or bus would be worse, right?

Recovering an ancient project sent me back down the "which build tool should I be using?" rabbit hole. Getting a script to grave dig 57 inconsistently styled K&R C files (!) really stresses the build cycle, more than writing new code.

First approximation: No one's happy with any build tool, with good reason. Then I discovered Ninja. It's an assembly language for builds, advertised as a back end for higher level tools, but many people script Ninja themselves.

For me, 15 lines of Ruby code plus some heredoc boilerplate spawned a 138 line build.ninja file. Back in the day, this computer algebra system used to take an hour to build. Make still needs a frustrating number of seconds. Ninja on all my cores is a correct fraction of a second.

Ninja is exceptionally fast, and handles parallelism extraordinarily well. It scales; they use it for Google Chrome. Various tools such as CMake can target Ninja. It is unique for its design goals.

Most importantly, looking at Ninja code is not a "Just kill me now!" experience.

How is "blocking a road" a crime that inflicts severe economic damage?
Copper price today is exactly the same as it was in July 2006 (using the same source you linked). Not sure this is such a wonderful asset when you look at it this way.
Wait, there is more.

Nuclear needs water to cool, hot water then goes into rivers. This, until the river becomes too hot for the life in the water, then you cannot use your plant anymore (or you can, at the risk of killing all life in the area).

Also water evaporates when it's hot and vapor is a greenhouse gas even worse than carbon dioxyde. This might sound like a minor problem in the short term but it might be a huge issue in the future.

Also Uranium is sold at a negative ROI right now because of the decline of demand from Japan and Germany since Fukushima. But as those countries roadmap for nuclear changes, and as China is building more plants, the price for Uranium (which is quite inelastic) will increase significantly. Problem is, you don't build a plant for a year or two, you build it only if you intent to use it for decades. The commitment is huge.

I believe nuclear is useful as part of the mix but isn't a one-size-fits-all solution.

You're making a genetic fallacy here: that since the origin/ground of something has property C, it's product must have it too. This isnt so.

I agree that reality is fundamentally continuous. However cognition isnt; and many things arent.

A frequency is discrete. A length is continuous. These properties aren't eliminable for one another.

Here, whilst i'd agree that all physical process going on (everywhere) have essential continuous properties; they also have essential discrete ones. The issue is that grad. desc. alone does not give you the right kind of discrete ones.
The average cost of green hydrogen is 6 euro per kg, putting the price per kw/h around 18 cent. That is about 7 times more than the cost of nuclear per kw/h.

No one is burning green hydrogen commercially for grid power, through a lot of people would be happy to pay the average nuclear cost (~3 cent per kw/h) if you want to provide it. Selling green hydrogen for $1 per kg would be very welcome in Europe right now, with a basically bottomless demand if someone would be willing to provide it at current nuclear prices.

Demand shaping + solar + wind + storage is not economical viable in Northen Europe, but if you have any evidence to support the opposite then provide them. The fact is, if it was then the crisis that currently exist would not be a crisis, it would be an investment rush.

Of course, if you personally want to offer green hydrogen for $1 per kg this winter, and sign a liability contract for supplying the many tons needed, then sure. Lets do it!
True, but again there is Palo Verde nuclear plant that is located in the middle of the desert in Arizona and is cooled by sewage water from nearby cities.

Some new fast reactor designs don't even need water for cooling. Also, China has built an experimental thorium reactor in Gobi desert which also doesn't need water for cooling.

I believe a lot if interesting stuff is coming in a few years.

Thank you, that looks interesting too. In addition I like Lua because is much more light weighted than python and being embedded is nice to reduce dependencies.

The only problem I see is fragmentation. People are already considering cmake as the de facto standard despite all its flaws. If the cmake alternatives are too fragmented it will play in favor of cmake.

On the other side projects like xmake are interesting propositions. I will have a look at it in any case, thank you.

To be fair, Trump being able to stack the Supreme Court the way he did was the result of happenstance and decades of effort by the GOP. They did face an extreme uphill battle, but they were able to surmount it.

The real problem here is that the Supreme Court is a lifetime political appointment and, as long as their decisions have support in Congress, they're unimpeachable.

> That famous tech called cgroup was actually a Google contribution

At least some of namespaces were contributed by OpenVZ
I have come at this problem from a bit of a different angle by asking what is the closest I can possibly get to the hypothetical dream state of everything is automated, autoscaling blah blah blah as possible with the absolute smallest budget in terms of not only actual costs but time budget as well.

I only know the GCP ecosystem kind of well so I don't fully know to what extent these things exist in AWS and Azure but there I think there is a really nice path you can get on with the serverless route that skips K8s entirely but keeps you very well aligned in case you ever need to "upgrade" or get out of the GCP ecosystem.

I write very stock standard gRPC services and then put them onto Cloud Run (which has a very Heroku like workflow) and stick https://cloud.google.com/api-gateway in front of things and now my API is running on the exact same setup as any other service Google is running in production. Huge amounts of logic get moved out of my code base as a result.

If you are also willing to write your APIs a fairly particular way https://google.aip.dev/ it starts to become trivial to integrate other things like https://cloud.google.com/workflows, https://cloud.google.com/pubsub and https://cloud.google.com/tasks which is traditionally where a lot of the "state" and weirdly complicated logic previously lived in my code. I'm now not really writing any of that.

Now it's all declarative where I just say what I want to happen and I don't have to think about much else beyond that because it too is using that same internal GCP infrastructure to handle all the complicated parts around what to do when things go wrong.

But to me they are all extremely heavily aligned with the K8s path so the lock in certainly doesn't feel as scary.

You have to still ask the question why not just deploy the monolith to the VM and move on until you need to think about anything else?

For me it’s not JUST an investment in the future but in the very real immediate benefits it’s the huge amount of code I don’t have to write and all the insanely advanced stuff I get for free.

To give a quick example of each though. On the code side I don’t think about things like authN, authZ, retry logic, health checking, most security outside of things like input validation, logging, tracing etc. All of that now is just a configuration setting for me.

Then on the advanced features side, just to give one example. If I set a security policy saying this service can do the following actions on another service and I don’t end up using most of those permissions it will automatically notify me in the future to let me know and help me rewrite the security policy to only use the things I need in practice, it can even help me test that new policy to ensure things don’t break… That was previously basically an entire persons job to find and fix those kinds of things, usually manually because the amount of code needed to automate it is painful to think about. Now it’s just another feature I pick up for free.

This is the problem with nuclear. It was the answer in the 1990s, but renewables have proven themselves.

Now sure, if you could snap your fingers and build a new nuclear plant tomorrow, that would be great. But you can't. By the time a plant breaking ground today starts generating power, it will be too late to make sense.

> As for the WA border closure, if you read the judgement it did not say that the constitution only applies to the trade of goods. In Australia constitutional rights can simply be overridden by necessity.

I have read both the judgement re: WA which upheld the State's Right to enact quarantine during a biosecurity emergancy "while that situation lasted" and I've read the Australian Constitution, in particular the passage that supposedly allows free unencumbered travel between States even during a pandemic (which, I'm afraid, it doesn't).

These specifics aside, I agree that various Federal Governments have pushed past the bounds of what most citizens find acceptable and it's right and correct that they push back and mount challenges.

In the specific case of these environmental protestors I feel the former Government did go to excess in surveillance and stalking them in a manner befitting terrorists plotting malfeasance. No soup for them.

In the same manner of fair view to both sides, this particular protest group had in the past and did intend in the future to go beyond public and visible protest and fully into the realm of trespass and disruption of ongoing business activity.

Personally I applaud the ascent and hanging from a coal port stack loader - it was a ballsy move and good publicity and reminds me of things I did on several occassions in my 20s - but it was also trespass and beyond mere protest.

None of which justifies the excess bail conditions outlined in the OP article.
It's much more dispatchable than renewables, it's just cheaper to run it always at full capacity. Solar/wind/storage combination requires overbuilding in range of 15-25 times the nameplate capacity.

Personally I'm of the opinion that we should have nuclear+renewables with less focus on storage and more on opportunistic production of, for example, green hydrogen - not for grid storage but for all other uses like steel production, off-grid power systems (including cars/trains that have needs beyond battery capability) etc.

Current approach with renewables always being graded on their lowest possible price point and silently ignoring the growing gas generation required to smooth them and larger and larger grid instability is not great.

Some humans can plan well over such horizons, but the reason we even need to have this discussion now is that the people in charge 70 years ago didn't care to plan to mitigate against the carbon dioxide from fossil fuel plants, even though Svante Arrhenius calculated in 1896(!) that doubling atmospheric CO2 concentrations would increase Earth's temperature 4-6 °C (depending in part on which Wikipedia reference I follow).

And even then, you now need to overbuild not just for replacement of local plants, but also for replacement of plants on the other end of the continent.

Great if you're selling gas or gas power plants, I guess, not so great if you want zero CO2 emissions especially with how powerhungry the replacement techs can be.
This is a commercial version of the concept. They have been doing it for a while: https://gotenna.com/

The concept is of interest to me, as I like writing code to help people that help people. I’ll bet I could write a really nice Apple SDK and iOS app. I noticed the reviewer wasn’t too thrilled with their iOS app.

I did try working with goTenna, but they won’t open up their low-level API, and I don’t like using closed-source SDKs (that other people wrote —I have issues), for the most part.

I’m having difficulty with their documentation. It seems a bit scattershot. I’ll keep looking, but it appears as if there isn’t a place that simply lists the interface parameters. I would probably use BLE, and I suspect they do serial over BLE (I think goTenna does the same). Not a problem, as long as the AT commands are listed and explained, somewhere.
