I absolutely feel comfortable vouching for Pyright!

Last I used it, it was miles ahead of mypy in terms of speed, easy-of-use (it's an LSP!), correctness (simply has less bugs), and feature completeness (has implemented every new static typing feature that I've wanted to use months ahead of mypy).

The maintainer was also super-responsive on Github: replied to my issues in hours/minutes, and often released minor versions with bugfixes one or two days after issues are reported.

This indicates DID, the schizotypal stuff is orthogonal to DID, you can be both.

Most people choose and have chosen all their lives to group all their thoughts into one unitary personality. Others haven't. It's all an illusion anyway in my humble opinion. There are only chains of thoughts/feelings and we associate with those chains a feeling of "I" or "other", but the reality is it's just a meandering walk.
Some people need to pay more attention, and some people need a break.

If you're in the latter group, consider getting out of the 'news' pipelines for a few months.

Use no social media where 'news' appears. For example, if you use Reddit, don't look at the front page -- which is mostly outrage porn and shameless buzz marketing -- only select, bookmarked subreddits on other topics.

If outrage is being shoveled into your feed anywhere, disconnect the feed.

After a few months' break, to try to have sustainable civic/community engagement, carefully introduce an outlet that's trying to do real journalism in contrast to all the demagoguery. The tone can be concerned, but it must be objective rather than persuasive/manipulative, and maybe this combination of awareness and composure is reassuring. Maybe this is the NYT or WaPo still(?), or maybe you find something that works better for you. Check it maybe once a week or month. If you find a periodic summary that can update you in an hour, like a Week In Review, great.

Once you're not overwhelmed, and don't implicitly feel like it's all on you to save the world, then you can do some good. Maybe it's "think globally, act locally" in some niche, or maybe something else.

Then you can also carefully increase your news exposure, with a newfound awareness to when you're just getting worked over by an engagement/manipulation algorithm.

At the same time as you take a break, try not to overdo the distancing and accidentally become one of the people who need to pay more attention and care about things outside themselves.
Heat pumps aren't necessarily more expensive than gas, and they are cleaner than gas heaters if the electricity is clean (such as nuclear)
The article isn't about compensation and neither is my comment.
Or a podcast.
It might be pointless to do so, however you could also make it illegal for the existing employees to continue to work in the respective industry. It would prove to be a huge incentive to ensuring best practice.
I have and I can't think of anything worse for developers. Being on the phone all day, group solving problems is a great for the below average to hide within the group.
I do think that's helpful compared to the strict alternative, but much of the up-front cost is still there. You still write most things twice, and the static type checker still slows you down when prototyping. You'd still be tempted to write bad code to work around the insufficiently-expressive type language, rather than write it in the most natural way, and only give up when it's too hard.

You can also approach this from the other direction: why not start with a dynamic language for the rapid prototyping and gradually introduce typing as the code stabilizes? Python and Typescript do this.
In Germany you pay 25 cents for recyclable bottle or 15 for reusable bottle…
There is already a collision threshold, but very low. I might have to increase it to be noticeable. Otherwise great ideas all around :)
oh yea its not a large tax but it is happening for a long time, for sure we should just have dispensers and you bring your own bottle, just like we have now for shopping bags they are all gone you have to bring your own bag. This way you buy a nice metal or what ever bottle and reuse it for years.
Got to remember that westerners have been sold on the entire product cycle of every day chores. Wash your hair everyday - lather, rinse, repeat. Yes! Hey we could increase our profits 100%? WTF how?? We just tell them to do it twice! Lol.

Cooking food? Buy a spray to oil it! Buy a nonstick pan that will last a year. Buy dishwashing soap! And cool washing up brushes that dispense the soap! It’s not clean unless you scrubbed it back down to the state it arrived in! Keep buying those products!

It’s too much work to clean an iron skillet! Well you don’t clean it: you just wipe it. What??? No you must clean it! Dawn says so!

Etc
So how do you prevent bad actors from abusing this and/or train every developer on the planet to ensure they do they follow the right processes.

Sounds like its something that probably happens a lot and will continue to happen a lot?

Follow that thought process down the rabbit hole and you arrive, inexorably, at panpsychism.
Amazing, but... Why not done with Python syntax? And no, mypy is not a solution. Even with strictest mypy it is still possible to have errors that would have been caught with static typing.
The YouTube videos are better because they need it to work on screen.
i meant there is already a cost just not that large...
The problems of greed, disregard for others' suffering, and avoidance of responsibility are universal aspects of the human psyche. The Soviet Union and People's Republic of China have a legacy of industrial pollution at least as damning as any capitalist country:

https://www.gerdludwig.com/stories/soviet-pollution-a-lethal...

https://worldcrunch.com/culture-society/china39s-polluted-ri...

Reporters are routinely arrested in communist Vietnam for reporting on industrial pollution:

As you suggest, the best known solution is identifying these externalities, exposing their abuse through a free press, and holding polluters accountable through collective action.
Maybe you’re aware but the Boox Max Lumi has an HDMI In port, so you can use it as a secondary monitor for that laptop.

> the thing that Europeans have been feeling - that they need to get off fossil fuels before there is enough technology to enable an all-renewable grid

I do not agree that this specific and silly thing about "before it's ready" is "what Europeans have been feeling". It seems like a straw man construction. ASAP means as soon as possible, not sooner.
I don’t know what to tell you. Is this one of those billion/trillion differences again? In that case the EPA values are definitely off by a factor of 1000 when compared to SI units, so maybe rainwater is then only some hundreds to some thousands of times over the limit.

That's the problem. The deposit cost should be an outsized portion of the total cost.
it already does look at Brazil they collect the most because the poor go around collecting them for money.
We should revive the HOWTOs ..
> Sure you can: Germany and France are not in the same place, so the economics of getting gas from source X are not the same, so when weighing gas vs nuclear they were not looking at the same options. For Germany, cheap gas meant Russian gas. If that had been ruled out on security grounds, other energy sources, including nuclear, would have been more competitive vs more expensive gas from Norway etc.

Nuclear was never an option to substitude for gas. Apart from the fact that Germany uses most of its gas for heating and industry, the applications for both in electricity generation are very different, gas is for peakers, nuclear is baseload. That can be seen by looking at the fact that France is using the same percentage of gas in their electricity generation as Germany.
Until HowTo’s get sponsorship, like streaming, that is how it is going to be. Not that enough people RTFM to make it worthwhile. The best way to explain Linux is socially, though.
Right, at your current stage there is pry no need to build some task queue. However, if you anticipate infrastructure costs to grow quickly I think you’ll want to invest some effort in this.

You could even have tiered services. For example, some users may be willing to pay more for more consecutive tests.

I know people can remember things sequentially really well with practice... maybe patterns are easy to remember?

I'm skeptical but also have no authority on memorization or rubiks cubes... I've also seen crazier things lol

The big app rewrite could be the biggest mistake your company ever makes.

Imagine writing a new app for years - while still maintaining the old one - only to discover your new system was not fit for purpose and now you have to maintain both.

When it comes to rewrites, I’ve seen it all. I can steer you away from the garden path and develop a strategy that is achievable, pragmatic, and gets you where you need to go.

So why not get some independent advice? Email me at info@lewiscampbell.tech, and we’ll set up a free 30 minute consultation. The rest is up to you.

How is jailing people after trial (but not extraditing the Catalonian European delegates), equivalent to the utter destruction of civilian occupied Grozny?

Or are you suggesting that in 2008 Germany should have supported Georgia in South Ossetia?

This reminds me of a small organic farm owner who said something to the effect of “why can’t I just trade my extra produce with the farmer down the street who has extra eggs? And then I can use the eggs to make pastries and trade those with my neighbor who makes homemade clothing?” Someone responded, “congrats, you just invented capitalism.”

Since eggs go bad and produce is heavy, maybe we could invent a durable “value storage” or “token” or “fiat” to trade instead. Storage and transmission of this value store could become useful trades in their own right.

This sounds like a very natural thing to do, almost like it would arise on its own without anyone having to _force_ this on anyone, as opposed to literally every other economic system, including your definition. In your “anarchism” how do you enforce the non-ownership of the means of production except by force? Do you force the farmer not to grow anything?
NPM has always been node-first, and relied on tools such as browserify to make some packages more portable - bower was significantly more popular for front end development until it came around.

CJS was node's solution to "modules" prior to ES modules, which was not interoperable with requirejs / AMD, the front end solution that came out of Dojo. UMD offered a way to have both, but was far too much boilerplate to support by hand, so it was mostly only adopted by libraries.

CJS won out for a very short time, right up until import / export became available via webpack. This short window is pretty much the only time that "isomorphic" really applied to NPM; by the time import / export had gained enough steam (thanks largely to both webpack and typescript for jump starting adoptation), there were enough browser modules that trying to write truly isomorphic code was limited to certain subsets of your application.

I imagine running isomorphic code under deno to be quite a bit less painful, as it was built from the ground up to mirror browser environments as closely as possible, but that's not much consolation if you still want to target node.
I guess I'm not familiar with Autodesk. Is it always paid by subscription? There's no way to pay a one-time price?

Even if it is just subscription, what is the length of the subscription? If it's say 1 year, you could ask for a refund for the rest of the year since they've changed what they're giving you.
Agreed. This is awful advice. You need to be pricing based on value not cost. OP has it right. It’s just the question of how do you peg that value properly.
As long as energy storage is expensive this is a valid argument.

And as we erode our base generation in favor of these intermittent sources it becomes a more serious problem.
It takes an unnecessary amount of time for to run things on linux that are working comfortably on windows without weird modifications to the operating system. That's the reason why people choose windows.
In today's OpenCV video, we'll show you how to find the red cup just like the docs.
> Oh it wasn’t less global,

Yes, it was; trade globalization progressively advanced under the GATT regime shortly after Ww2 through the formation of (and further after and by expansion of both the membership and scope of rules of) the WTO to replace the GATT in 1997.

> the Republican administration forced government entities to buy (or in this case build) American instead of European in an attempt to fight inflation.

The Buy America Act was not a unilateral partisan or executive actions, but was a bipartisan law passed by a Democratic-majority House and Republican-majority Senate under a lame-duck Republican Administration, and it was more motivated by stimulating the domestic economy during the Depression (it was signed on the last day of the Hoover Administration) than fighting inflation, which had been negative and getting more negative for the three years preceding the passage of the bill.
C14 from solar storms and nuclear testing can be taken into account. If for some reason it was not taken into account when someone was using isotope ratios to determine how much of the atmospheric carbon is from ancient sources, or if there was some other C14 source that was missed, the result would be that the calculated amount of ancient atmospheric carbon would come out lower than the correct amount.

As for having only ~100 years of measured data, around 70% of the increase in atmospheric CO2 in the last several hundred years has taken place in the last 60 years. We have much more than enough measured data to say that nearly all of that increase in the last 60 years is due to human activity.

BTW, that also matches very well the curve you get when you try to calculate human CO2 emissions over time by looking at the known sources of human CO2 emissions and estimating their growth over time by looking at the economic records. Most of the human sources are commodities and there is extensive historical data on their markets.
Consider, from someone who knows speedcubing, that it’s not 3,000+ random algorithms, more like a decision tree of algorithms. Many are similar and related; many are rotated or mirrored. Long practice and pattern recognition make most algorithm selection second-nature. Yes, there’s a ton of memorization involved, but the limited problem domain, and therefore easy mental modeling of it, make this exactly the kind of task at which humans excel.

Professional chess and go players can replay many, sometimes all, of their past games from memory. Surely that’s a greater feat.
I would be very interested in seeing some benchmarks!

I'm pretty sure that serde, the rust library that Pydantic uses, is faster than the JSON parser written in C in the python standard lib, so I'd be very surprised if your pure python validation library beat pydantic.
When I was young and low-earning, I stuck to used cars. And for what it's worth, the new Inflation Reduction Act includes subsidies for the purchase of used electric vehicles.

I've heard the used car market doesn't have enough electric cars -- but as adoption increases, that may change.
One of my early favorites was Donald Alcock's Illustrating BASIC

https://books.google.com/books/about/Illustrating_BASIC.html...

It's entirely hand-lettered. The author's afterword remarks that an attentive reader will notice the shakier lettering toward the end of the book.

He wrote a couple other books on programming (I think he did Illustrating Pascal). It's a quirky approach, but very friendly and unintimidating compared to vanilla textbooks.
The best way to learn a subject is from an authoritative source. 'socially' results in a whole bunch of misinformation and wrong practices, like PHP developers chmod'ing 777 the hell out of the system because they don't understand what the fuck they are doing.
This reminds me of the slogan of ISO: Great things happen when the world agrees
Container ships seem very inefficient. Is that why shipping from taobao is horrible?
yes dumbest idea ever... how lazy have we gotten to not be able to fill a bottle of water at home or where ever they have dispensers and be fine with that instead of buying bottled water that is shipped from some dumb place that is depleting local water source all for convenience .
Can you believe they really used to hand cups and plates made of a material that could take over a million years to decompose and called it a "disposable"?

Hmm I see, thank you. How do we know that he hasn't just learned the specific cube he's solving in the video, though? Is there some verifiable source of randomness?
Instead of explaining I'll just add a link to one of those Wikipedia pages which still seems to be free from ideological bias:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holocene

The key thing to look for is this: The Holocene has been identified with the current warm period, known as MIS 1. It is considered by some to be an interglacial period within the Pleistocene Epoch, called the Flandrian interglacial.

It is not 'the entire period from the last ice-age until present' because we're still in an ice age. The Holocene is the current interglacial period, before it came the Younger Dryas, what comes after it is of course as of yet unknown but given the way previous interglacials came and went it is likely to be followed by a long period of glaciation.

The main takeaway is that the climate has been changing ever since the planet developed and will keep on doing so until there is no more atmosphere, i.e. when the sun blows up to encompass the orbit of Venus and strips the Earth's atmosphere off. That'll take a while so it is not necessary to start planning for this scenario. It was changing when Homo Sapiens developed some 300.000 years ago, it was changing when our species moved out of Africa - who knows, this might even have played a role in that migration. Homo Sapiens was there when a large part of the northern hemisphere was covered in land ice, 'we' were there when that ice retreated. We survived then, we will survive now.
The early internet was mostly academic.

A bit later on, things like viruses and spyware became a major issue. It took a while for the people making browsers and operating systems to realize how severe a security problem the internet would be.
I actually like that corporations want to be considered people - that means they are not above the law, no matter the size, therefore if they cause harm to people(s), and it is intentional/illegal it is entirely within the right of government to stop them.
Plastic is far safer than glass at many venues though. Broken glass in or around water, or broken glass at a sports stadium with lots of kids is problematic for example.
This is what is putting me off the most of this, the syntax feels very unreadable for something that is meant for python, which has a very readable and open syntax, even typescript's sometimes messy typing is for the most part more readable than this
So Mountain Death was right

Is that inflicted with micrometals??
Glass is a terrible idea because of litter. The beaches around here used to be unusable because of the amount of glass in the sand. Nothing like a kiddo screaming because of a chunk of glass in their foot to make you change your mind.

Higher deposit for plastic sounds good to me.
Remember why it was that it was easier to learn new things when you were younger, yes there is a certain biology for it. (Side note: I'm pretty sure I heard Andrew Huberman talk about this and he recommended Choline as a supplement to help get your levels to similar to someone younger, no idea how correct this is, i've made a note to read more into it myself)

But I would say, it is that sense of wonder and imagination that you lose when you are older, you've seen stuff, even interesting stuff becomes 'oh just another interesting thing, much like this other thing i saw before'.

What you need to do is optimise things for novelty, interest, excitement and challenge rather than for outcome. As you get older, you likely have things you want, these will become goals, but these will be based on what you already know and your supposed path to them will also be best on your current knowledge. The problem is, that won't even get you to anywhere interesting, it might not even get you to that 'goal' because the world is way more complex than you think and you begin to think you know as you get set in your ways.

When you did interesting things, when you learned the most, it was when you didn't know any better, you didn't know what you were doing, you need to get rid of that idea that you know, you need to accept you don't get out of your comfort zone and do things, try things, optimise for that novelty rather than an outcome and you might find something interesting and that is where you will learn the most.

If you really want to learn, change your goal from achieving things and outcomes, to seeking out novelty, things that interesting/excite you and anything that is a little bit challenging for you. It will put you back in that space again, or at least as much as you can be.

I found this talk interesting on this subject: It talks about lessons learned from AI and machine learning that show this to be a valid path.

Let's be honest Google is having a problem dealing with actual intelligence writing bad stuff as well as surgical intelligence rehashing things. Just because half the internet writes a thing doesn't make it true. And again just because the airport writes it doesn't mean it's tested. Figuring that out by raw ML and no context of the material is probably not going to end well. I think the only solution is will be to keep an updated truth curated by experts humans.

Compared to the 90s where spam was spam and three internet was more for the tech savvy it's changed.
> That's going to damage the coating, shortening the lifespan of the pan, and putting little bits of Teflon into your food.

Out of the concerns above, pieces of Teflon in your food is fortunately not a huge concern: Teflon is not toxic in the slightest. It works as nonstick because it doesn’t really react with anything, and that means it won’t react with your body either. It is a common material in various medical equipment like implants, frequently used as catheter lining.

Now, if you heat it to 500 degrees or more, it starts decomposing, and the resulting chemicals are toxic. So, don’t broil in nonstick (but slow braising in oven is fine).
Stone age cultures?
The real problem I have is that modern cast iron pans are extremely rough. Old cast iron pans are extremely smooth, by contrast.

I suspect that accounts for a lot of the variance that people experience using cast iron.
