I understand gravitation isn't the only force... how are you proposing to store energy? Other options (beside pumped hydro as gravitational potential energy storage) that come to mind are flywheels, springs, or batteries .... all of these technologies have existed for more than 100 years, and batteries are the only ones currently growing in usage - there's a good reason for that.
> It seems like maybe you're just hung up on definitions and/or the inclusion of "cultural" here?

I don't think so, but I suppose I could call it "marxism which incorporates cultural subversion" if it makes you feel better. Bit of a mouth-full though.

> The wikipedia article for a specific set of critiques of Marxism from a bunch of racists is not a good base article for the general critique of Marxism.

Glad we agree. The article is definitely not a good base for anything, as it ignores the legitimate critiques of cultural marxism and instead makes it out to be a racist conspiracy theory. Seems biased in favor of marxism, wouldn't you say?

I don't think the opposition is as diametric as you may think, when it comes to values. I've been to China several times and from my perspective, US liberalism has embraced quite a lot of Communist China's values and behaviors. For example:

1. Committing acts of violence against people they don't agree with.

2. Silencing opposing opinions.

3. Media and political propaganda, projection, and gaslighting.

4. Vilifying segments of society.

5. A tiered justice system.

6. Consequentialism.

7. Destruction of history to fit a modern narrative.

That isn’t the argument being made in the comment I replied to.
Yeah, I served my mission in California and I can say there aren't many topics that make strangers more uncomfortable than religion.

At the end of the day, though, I found most people (whether or not they were interested in religion) care about being happy and having purpose and it was/is enjoyable to observe common ground with other humans in that realm.

That being said, lots of people get pissed about religion being shoved in their face and I do not blame anyone as it can be a huge source of trauma.
Cottage food industry is really over regulated. I know a couple people who rented out kitchens and even started a small store, just so they could sell products.

Food Freedom bills have been promoted by some states. Many small businesses in some states, just take course and test for a license. That isn't allowed for most cottage foods. Decades ago, even bringing in home baked goods for your kids was banned at most places.

One place use to sell unpasteurized apple cider from an apple farm, it tasted so good, but was closed because unpasteurized is illegal almost everywhere. Which some states used as an reason for Freedom Food bills.

What I'd say is, choose based on your goal. If you are an experienced game developer who wants to get an RPG game out there fast then use specialised tools like this.
For general purpose game development, Godot will give you better mileage than these special tools.
This argument has been debunked many times. A large enough grid can be based on wind and solar alone, this has been shown for the US in several studies. Storage however is advantageous because it enables to reduce the amount of overcapacity. The good thing is that the way the electricity market works, is that it provides direct economic incentives to develop storage or basing high electricity demand production industry on currently available electricity.

I'm always amazed that many free market proponents who strongly support market solutions, are so in favour of pushing nuclear which by its nature is very monopolised reliant on subsidies, while good market solutions exist. And I say that as someone who is often sceptical of market solutions.
> Noise Free It's incredible how many distractions this kind of app usually has: extra clicks, unnecessary features, rectangular ads, and too many typography styles.

I very much like this adaptation of the term noise. I’m starting to realize a growing angst against intrusive noisy products that present junk to me I did not ask for. I realize there’s a non-zero cognitive load to ads and variable UI that’s unrelated to the product and it increasingly a source of minor frustration in my life I could do without. Social media has socialized the UI to dump suggestions and guides and other junk that gets tossed out in times that are inappropriate, one of those “not now please” moments. That noise can at times break my concentration and then it becomes a strong negative in my mind with a cost to it all. It’s like coming home and finding your desk surface not how you left it then you realize someone moved something trivial or some solicitor left you a note. These visual deltas no mater their motivation, should all be permission opt in settings.
If you're architecting an early-stage startup, this article covers almost nothing of worth.

The two most important architectural factors for early-stage startups are:

1. product velocity; eg, the ability to move fast, experiment, and try things out in prod.

2. resource modeling; eg, what are the core data models that your product will use and how do they relate to each other?

Everything else is noise until you hit P/M fit.

#2 is less important than #1, but it's the really the only design point that can make or break ease of scalability post-P/M fit.

Conflating a specific set of accusations of supposed degeneracy eating away at the base of western culture with a wider academic discipline that includes studying/discussing said "degeneracy" seems appropriate to me but maybe you can be more specific about why you think they aren't parallel?
We gotta fill the gaps between intermittent output from renewables somehow. Would you rather fill those gaps with fossil fuels? Because that's the choice.
Whenever I meet with someone who drove to meet me, I'm struck by their need to return to their vehicle, think about parking, reflexive complaints about gas prices etc. In contrast I just choose a transportation mode is when I leave; often, I choose a slower walk, with a meandering path that actually engaged with my community for better or occasionally worse.

The characterization of this as "slavery" is beyond ridiculous.

I feel differentiable programming is not really there.

I understand the specific case of numerical functions, it may make sense if you just want to tweak some parameters a bit like a nn, or for example in quantum diff programming people seem to tweak parameters in some Hamiltonian.

What I actually want is something you will actually change the structure of the program somehow.

If you pretend the entire program is a function f, parameters are just points on your program. Why is moving to different points differentiating. Differentiating is producing a new function f’.

In the case of the NN it makes sense to select different points. But then we do also modify the structure with dropouts etc.

SoDo has the only free public COVID testing center in the central area of the city. I don’t think it’s that unreasonable that people without cars should be able to safely access a public service.

doas is the openbsd people going "sudo is too complex and is therefore insecure".

it has a way simpler config and way smaller source. it also may or may not be fully functional on linux at any given time as it likes to use openbsd kernel apis. for instance on linux by default you must supply a password every time you invoke doas, unlike sudo which provides a temporary session for the tty you authenticate against. doas supports such a session on openbsd, but relies on kernel timers, so by default that functionality is disabled in linux.
It is a neat idea. Would like to see how it would work in practice. Being able to add more "logging" on demand without waiting for a new deployment could speed up some fiddly issue bug fixing from weeks to intra-day (because it might need 20 iterations of new logging to get to the bottom of it).

The concern of course, is it might be easy to quickly deploy something that stuffs up production because to be quick it would need to bypass QA processes.

Finally I found this funny:

> Developer observability is a new pillar of observability adapted for the needs of developers. Unlike typical observability solutions, it’s aimed directly at developers and not at DevOps.

I thought DevOps means Developers taking responsibility for things like observability! I guess it is confusing as there is DevOps the culture and DevOps the role.
> Add the safety aspects to it and public transport becomes less attractive — unless of course they start allowing those with firearms permits to carry on public transport.

The idea that allowing private citizens to carry guns on public transit will make things safer is completely insane.

All these politicians that rant about second amendment rights still don't allow guns into their rallies, because people shooting guns in an area with even a relatively small number of people is NOT a recipe for safety.

The cost comparisons also don't include the cost of waste storage for nuclear. But it is also irrelevant, nuclear also needs storage or overcapacity. France is currently only operating to 60% capacity due to heat and maintance (although I saw some other news that they took all their plants offline for maintanance which I found hard to believe) so you need to overbuild of get storage for nuclear as well.

On top of that nuclear cost estimates are based on running the reactors 100% 24/7 with minimal downtime. If you actually want to make them load following to eliminate gas peakers or storage, the cost for nuclear would go up significantly, because they are so strongly CAPEX determined.

Cfront was a compiler. It output C as object code so it could more easily target different processor architectures, but was no less of a compiler for that.
The majority of people use navigation even when driving to a familiar location so they can be routed around other traffic and disruptions (which are by no means infrequent).

Similarly, I'll check the route home on Google Maps to decide not only which route to take but which mode (walking, transit, shared vehicle, etc) to use.

If processors were much more interchangeable than they are, we could scavenge chips from less important devices, or at least production that was destined for them, and put them in more important ones. I hope RISC-V can help provide this kind of buffer against short term shocks.

"Cultural Marxism" is a racist conspiracy theory.

Your argument appears to just be that marxism and marxism activism is inherently cultural (sure), therefore an existing use of the words "cultural" and "marxism" should be banished to some other name so that an article that already exists and already has a different name can be called "cultural marxism" instead.

edgyquant has a stronger argument about people like Jordan Peterson inadvisably adopting that term so usage is shifting over time.
