lol, ok. sure, whatever. as a ChemE, we have already made so much progress on making plants blow up less, spilling toxic chemicals into waterways, stopping destroying the ozone, make food safer, ....

you maybe need to go talk to chemists who make this. ChemE just mass produce what the chemist makes. but the chemist just makes what the business needs and the business you makes what the consumer wants.

so oh wait, this is on you for being an irresponsible consumer. don't buy it and we won't make it.

also, north America and the west have already done impressive reforms contrary to Asia which really needs to learn environmentalism
Sure, sensationalist copy as well. The point is that press releases are written by people who neither know nor care about the subject, and can't be trusted to accurately reflect the state of the field or the content of the papers they refer to.
> But if you're not learning something and growing in some way, you're probably regressing.

but this has nothing to do with your work - you grow and learn as part of your personal desire or interest. If it happens that your personal interest intersects with your job, then that's a great coincidence.
That is true for a good flat one.

How about bittorrent? I'll seed for ya.
If it was practical to do so (maybe involving a clever splitting of customer dashboard pages onto different domains in different Cloudflare zones?), we would only shut off free-tier access for these people, while still allowing sign-ups that skip the promotion and take (and place a hold on) a card straight from the start.

Sort of like how some people can't qualify for a post-paid cellphone plan, but anyone can get a prepaid cellphone plan.

As it is, though, we can't block VPNs even if we wanted to; VPN companies are currently winning the arms race against VPN detection. (You can tell who's currently on the winning side this week by whether you see YouTube ads that make the claim that you can use a VPN to enable geo-shifting for Netflix. Netflix is legally obligated by its IP licence-agreements to do what it can to shut that down; and whenever they manage it, the VPN services stop making that claim for a while, until they figure out how to make it happen again. Currently, they're making it.)
Bingo. It's not petitioning that movies change and avoid all sorts of emotional triggers. It's just documenting them. I don't see the problem here.
There are several documentaries set in Slab City or nearby towns Niland and Bombay Beach -- I found all of them fascinating. Sorry, don't remember titles.

A safer alternative destination might be the Fountain of Youth Spa, which has been there since at least the 1970s. But I'd check the recent reviews, and hold off until November at least.
I wonder how much the footprint for ICE changes based on where the crude was sourced from, eg:

- fracking in the US

- offshore

My understanding is that polyethylene is one of the most benign plastics with respect to leaching, and that PEX should be even more benign than normal polyethylene because of the crosslinking.
Large language models have a reasoning problem
I use the site mentioned in the article almost every time I want to watch a movie. Its easy to dismiss it in terms of "pampering" or being too soft, but there are people who have lived and seen horrible things and do not want to be reminded of them.

It's also great as a nutrition label for media of sorts; "is this movie appropriate for a small get together?" is a question that's often hard to answer without a service like this.

OctoKlipper?

Edit: Here's the pre-print: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2112.09740.pdf

I'm not sure others have read deeply into the article. While there's always some subtle ways friction can sneak its way, the authors account for the obvious.

The article has a lot of definitions, which makes the crux difficult to pinpoint. They use the word "shape" many times to describe the configuration of the four motors. I think this adds confusion. Let me try to summarize as I understand it without using the word "shape."

The authors are measuring the net position of the arm holding the two motor tracks. The arm can only rotate clockwise or counter-clockwise in the horizontal plane, so it suffices to measure the arm position using an angle - phi, with initial position being phi = 0.

The two motor tracks are oriented perpendicular to one another. A key point is that the motors do not travel up, down, left, or right. That's Cartesian thinking. Rather, they travel clockwise or counter-clockwise along their respective tracks. One track is vertical, the other is horizontal.

With this picture, the authors claim that the net horizontal position angle (phi) of the arm changes depending on how the motors move along their tracks.

None of this is particularly impressive (e.g. the motion of the motors may cause the arm to "wobble" one way due to issues with synchronization, weight differences, and numerous other causes).

The interesting part is this: If the vertically-oriented motors are made to move up-down on linear straight paths instead of curved paths, the net movement of the arm is not observed. Think about that for a moment...why should the path that the vertically-oriented motors take affect the horizontal rotation of the arm?

In Newtonian physics, acceleration/force in one direction cannot affect acceleration/force in a perpendicular direction. At any given moment, the vertically-oriented motors are perpendicular to the arm's rotation direction, so their motion should not affect its horizontal rotation in space. In particular, both the curved-vertical and linear-vertical paths are perpendicular to the horizontal at all times. Newton would predict that changing the path of the vertical motors from linear to curved would not affect the horizontal rotation...but it does.
While partly true, it is important to note that improving efficiency of a single large energy source is easier to do than improving energy efficiency of a million cars.

Also, with solar and wind in the fray, and increasing renewable energy share, having an all electric energy consumption economy is better logistically and environmentally.
Klipper looks interesting. Im still running an old old Octoprint build on a pi because it works and dont wannna deal with it.

How does it improve the print vs just sending gcode? My main pc is whats slicing and dicing and creating the gcode. How is the Klipper improving that?

Molecular Senescence Markers in Depression:Characteristics and Treatment Outcome
You’re responding to a phenomenon which neither the article is advocating for, not what I defended. The article rightly, I think, questions the pervasiveness of such extreme do-nothingness. Most workers engaged in whatever is being observed do what they were hired to do and don’t oblige themselves beyond their stated responsibilities. That’s more than fine, it’s good and healthy in the vast majority of circumstances. It’s not (again challenging the article here) an organizing principle with much merit for improving workers lives broadly, but it’s at least a good balance for most workers to strike for their own wellbeing.

I don’t know if you’re conflating these things because the article poorly laid out its premise, or because you’re sympathetic to the demanding expectations you’ve participated in, or because it was so traumatic you see in your own right laziness where people are merely enjoying the fruits of their labor without toiling for other people’s fruits. In any case, I sincerely wish you recovery from any remaining burnout. And I sincerely invite you to have solidarity with others who don’t want to experience the severity of overwork we have, and to defend them in rejecting cultures of overwork rather than defending caricatures of workers who would be just as harmed if they were in our position.

If you don’t want to be overworked, don’t drive excessive work for those who’d benefit at your expense.
That "swimming" in curved spacetime is possible is well-known. The paper describes the implementation of a system for doing so.
I'd tend to agree.

Most movies these days are self-indulgent, following a simple pattern that has made money for the industry before. Imo, these tend to be uninspired and not worth watching.

My experience is that basically all request-servicing work is I/O-bound. And AFAIK there is no request-servicing system in normal production use which does process-per-request. Even request-per-socket is basically outmoded; modern protocols multiplex logical requests over physical connections one way or another, e.g. HTTP/2.
yes this article seemed very obsessed with capitalism more than the movie itself. does the theory of marxism hold that there would be no more container ships, no products shared between nations, no people whose job it is to drive ships, trains and trucks anymore? that's all specific to capitalism? really? like if I wanted a pedometer, someone down the street would be making them ? or we just have no gadgets at all?

I do have one of those Edison diamond disks in my collection, though no playback device that can handle the vertical signal in the groove. My ~1917 Silvertone phonograph does fine for me with the more conventional 78s.

My grandpa used to tell me that they donated the clockwork out of their record player as scrap metal for the war effort, so they listened to music by spinning the records by hand and holding a fingernail in the groove. That's something you can't do with pretty much any other recorded medium, aside from print.
Tangent, but the US sanctions against Russia consist of a series of specific sanctions (https://www.trade.gov/country-commercial-guides/russia-sanct...) rather than a general embargo on trade. Mostly they're an import ban (because Russia relies on global exports to acquire USD), plus a very narrow "luxury goods" export ban (which I believe is intended to annoy Russian oligarchs while not impacting most Russian citizens.) There's no current US sanction against export of technology or services to Russia; and so Google isn't legally obligated to do anything about Russian traffic.
The sanctions are not targeting a human or a group of humans, they target an open source project and its autonomous smart contracts. Look up the sanctions and project source code yourself.

The only fees taken are relay fees, which can be anybody - not necessarily the developers. The conversation steers back to whether it is illegal to run a Tor exit node and whether it is illegal to develop Tor the open source project. Tornado Cash can be republished without relay fees, with zero governance, no token, would that be acceptable?
Source always matters.

If something sounds like it might possibly be true, and important enough to matter, but comes from a source that is either unproven or proven unreliable, then it's reasonable to either ignore it o matter what it says, or look into the topic elsewhere until you have found multiple reliable sources, and it doesn't matter if in the end the data happens to be the same.

The initial data, accurate or not, was utterly valueless random data. Random includes everything, both true and untrue and everything in between. The true bits have no value because you don't know they're true until after you determined it some other way.

When a source repeatedly turns out to only deliver info that later checks out, THEN you can start granting it some amount of benefit of the doubt. Not before, and not at all when a source is not only unproven but already has a haphazard history.

Source always matters, period.
This was my take too. It bothers me, perhaps a little irrationally, that chiropractic get a pass that other forms of quackery don't.

My understanding of the evidence is that there is nothing for which chiropractic is the best available treatment, and for everything except lower back pain there is no evidence that it has any level of efficacy.

Who is "we" who is doing the pampering? This is a site for people to make their own decisions about the movies they watch. Are you complaining that people pamper themselves too much?

Agreed. Usually it's a cheap method of generating hatred towards a character (see https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/KickTheDog).
> By now in 2022, 25 years after the Prius and Insight, we should have had 50% or more of new cars being PHEV hybrids with 50+ mile all-electric range.

The problem with PHEVs is that so many people never plug them in, unless the automaker does something to them like with the BMW i3 REx, in which case said people wouldn't want them.
I like dogs more than I like most people, but I think that if you choose, as a policy, not to watch a movie because a fictional dog fictionally dies, you'll eventually miss out on a movie you'd really enjoy. Speaking for myself, the tradeoff isn't worth it.
And AEG at least. Probably more.

> Diesel electric systems are highly efficient ~85%.

That's 85% of the crankshaft energy moving the wheels. Once you multiply in your ICE efficiency which will be around 30% for anything that fits in a car or truck you're looking at 25%

Burn the same deisel in a big turbine and chemical->wheel efficiency going via power lines and a battery will be in the 30-40% range, but with the advantage of being able to mix in solar.

Moving a giant metal and plastic box for each individual human is still a gross waste of resources though and we should subsidize mass transit and active transport infrastructure rather than spending vast amounts of common money on roads and parking lots.
I was wrong the Model 3 also weighs 3500lbs. With your thinking we shouldn’t have any trucks or pickups on the road. The Ford F-150 is the most selling vehicle of all time and it’s massive.
Indeed, these capabilities of the language are some of its strengths, even if we don't all trust ourselves to use them. The casual programmer doesn't know how or why numpy works, and we don't play with magic methods except out of curiosity. The people who do maintain numpy are using more formal methods to ensure its quality.

In the case of Python, the things that professional caliber programmers can use to extend its functionality, and the things that the rest of us can use to be productive, are the same language and are not hidden from one another. This is not the case in some languages of the past, e.g., you could use objects in Visual Basic but not build them without another language or eventually a special version.
Good luck getting a LAX-DAG pressure gradient strong enough to do that.
No, I checked again, the standard Tesla model 3 is already at weight parity with a Camry.

My dad died of cancer, too young. Grief is a long process, and cancer or parental death is still hard to watch. Sometimes, that's good outlet for me to process my grief, and I seek those shows and movies out deliberately. But usually, when I watch TV, I want to unwind, and not get surprised with some heavy emotional shit.

Frankly, you kinda sound offended that people have preferences for when and how they engage with their trauma. Grow up. If you don't want to know, don't look.
This seems like the appropriate balance, though.

These movies are not banned. All this content is permitted in movies.

But someone (voluntarily) created a resource people can consult (voluntarily) to find out information about the films from other people who have submitted the information (voluntarily.)

No one has to be involved with this who does not want to be. No decision is being made on behalf of anyone else.

That's pretty much peak "live and let live" in my book.

> Some of the sketchiest ASNs I know of have been assigned for many years

...which can be addressed perfectly fine with a static, human-audited blacklist, because the old bad actors don't change.

The goal of a reputation score would be to complement such a static blacklist, by recognizing the fly-by-night operations that constantly crop up and disappear for what they are; or, conversely, by rewarding the ASNs who manage to stick around long enough without ever doing anything to land them on the static blacklist.

In other words, just like how mail domain reputation works. If your domain sticks around long enough without ending up on a DNSRBL, then it builds up a positive reputation, which acts as a counterweight in spam-filtering algorithms. If you sell the domain, though, then its reputation resets.

> perfectly reputable ISPs have to acquire new IP space occasionally.

Yeah, but the average age "by volume" of all their IPs would still be pretty old, as the new acquisitions would be marginal compared to their existing holdings.
