Are grid operators and electricity generation operators separated in the US? Depending on the grid policy, what is profitable may change.

If in case of surproduction you ask baseload to reduce production in favor of NREs, then NREs will be more profitable (compared to a fifty-fifty approach) and baseload will be less so. On the opposite, if you ask NRE to reduce production, baseload will be more profitable.

(in case of fossil baseload generation, favoring NREs makes a lot of sense since you save the fuel cost, but for nuclear uranium is only a minor part of the cost)
Wouldn't a VPN also prevent traffic sniffing if you're connected via a public wi-fi point?
I think the analysis has some good points, but the author is lacking a bit of networking skills, so I’m not sure how trustworthy this can be. Two yellow flags:

* vpn gateway address can be different from public vpn exit address. What is the surprising part?

* I don’t know what pings your “uncloaked” public ip address, but still, when using a vpn, you’re using your own ip address to connect to the gateway. So, there’s no real leak - it would be a leak if some packets went _through the vpn_ to 99.99.99.99, because an observer could spot the strange ip and determine it’s the uncloaked source address.

Anyway: who can tell what an iphone or ipad can do? You probably have an associated apple account, et cetera. If you trust such a device for total anonymity, you’re doing it wrong from the start. Pick a Linux laptop for that.
The US is a car based society, there is trillions of dollars of concrete and steel in the ground making it so, we can change if we want that but it'll take decades and trillions more to replace/overlay the infrastructure we already have.

Pricing people out of vehicles prices them out of access to affordable housing, decent paying jobs and a whole bunch of other things that are important to not living in poverty, by putting vehicles and access to reliable transportation out of reach for the poor, we're effective condemning them to whatever their status quo is.
Is accepting entrepreneurs explicitly or exclusively on merit the official criteria?

The thing is that we have failed miserably at reducing our carbon emissions, and we are simply out of time at the moment. Any action we do is already too late. All we can do now is mitigate the worst effects.

There will be a global cost scheme for carbon at some point in the future. I hope it will be a simple tax (imposed by each state by some international agreements; although some weird cap-and-trade scheme with limited effect is probably more likely given how governments are behaving) and I wouldn’t be surprised if it is mostly in effect by the time Boom plains are in commercial operations.

Whatever the scheme there will probably not be an exception for international flights (I’m guessing countries will be focusing their efforts on exempting their militaries). The thing is that every industry is going to try to get a discount, and that is simply not possible (we are in an emergency after all). So it doesn’t matter if it only shaves of 0.3% of global emissions (which honestly would be a disaster and not acceptable in the long run). What matters is that all industries (except the arms industry; lets be realistic here) will have to suffer equally for their sustained pollution.
These read like paid reviews. Something off with these comments.
There is a reason the average vehicle age in the US keeps going up, also all of those do-dads and addons at least marginally increase repair costs.
> Now, one resort for them would be to use Airbnb’s web application on the web browsers of their phones, which doesn’t make much sense.

I never understood why one needs 20 separate apps (100 Mb each) instead of just using a single standard pre-installed web browser. Mobile UI everywhere is fine and functionality is the same.
We didn't though.

Edit: Also I feel like, from your last reply, that you might have taken one or both of my replies in a way that wasn't intended. It's also possible that I didn't word my replies in a good manner. I'm not always good at that. I am genuinely curious about how it is that others can hear loud vehicles behind them when driving while I can't. Your mention of echoes off buildings got me thinking of driving through a big city surrounded by big buildings, and that's an environment I am not familiar with except in pictures and videos. If that's the reason then it answers the question I've had for a couple years now when I first saw someone mention that they hear loud vehicles behind them.
The newest designs are not requiring water cooling anymore, which is good since water shortages will become common.

It'll take a while to shake them out in practice, but they look very solid.
That doesn’t sound very appealing.

A lot of people in Wall Street, especially the ones with access to the kind of information to become a good whistleblower, make $500k+/year.

That means those people are actually very unlikely to want to tell on others, unless maybe they are already on their way out.
I tend to enjoy a lot of philosophy; however, reading [1] is having a soporific effect. Might anyone recommend something more detailed than the Wikipedia article but less inscrutable than [1] (more scrutable?)

I know exactly what you mean. I didn't replace it, but instead in my muscle memory (and part of my car "boot sequence") is pressing a button, precisely turning a knob twice and pressing a button again. I've done it thousands of times now.

>if traffic is a problem then streets should be expanded

Quite the opposite. Traffic will expand like a gas to meet the available capacity. You can only make the roads so wide, but never will it be wide enough to abate traffic congestion.

If traffic is a problem it's time to make driving less attractive by building bike lanes, subways/light rail/monorail, and investing in transit.
Every now and then it's not awful, that's true. But it's just entirely non-functional and/or extremely slow a high percentage of times, which means you can't reliably plan to have functioning wifi, which means you can organize your schedule around it.
IMO a dyson sphere is not a dystopia. Where is the line?

Is a desert covered in solar more or less a dystopia than the smog clouds that currently engulf LA?
I live in Texas and big trucks are super common. I drive a truck with a lift in Austin and haven't towed a thing.

It is also unique, among those, in being wholly unable to sustain a buoyant aerial unshielded nuclear reactor.

Titan can. But its surface gravity is less than a seventh of Earth's. It seems unlikely people can live on Titan or the Moon for long without fatal loss of skeletal tone. (Mars might be possible, but why bother?)
It would, but that’s already generally impossible thanks to everything being on HTTPS (including DNS).
Very interesting. I wonder if higher iops involves reading from more servers and with request hedging it can smooth latency a lot better.
Nice! Thanks for the heads up. I'll take a look at some kits. I'm more interested in the equipment than the peppers or recipes. I've done sourcrout in the past, used a big 50 gallon plastic container and let it ferment for a week and then into the jars it went.

But I'm really curious about venturing into hot pepper sauces.
Weird how many real life scenarios end up as variations of the trolley problem
Fair, that’s pretty weird by objective standards - but not much weirder than computing some function with electricity and some transistors.

You'd need to collect a lot of data for that, and there is no guarantee that the person listening hasn't built up a tolerance to it already.

for what its worth a lot of the stuff in this post can be applied to a lot of things that aren't tailscale. you can just consider tailscale an arbitrary example of something really cool that you can do with your steam deck.

That's a misrepresentation of what I said.

I was saying you should always be positive and proactive and personal responsible and make moves in-the-small instead of thinking nothing can be done because the sky is falling.
Why should they panic? Economic opportunity is being brought in and it is a pro-building area so truly getting priced out as one would in San Francisco or Hong Kong is highly improbable.

Also, migration seems so popular in the tech community until it is into one's own.
So stage a coup and put adults in charge instead of a crypto bro gambling away a nation’s sovereign funds. I agree the IMF should assist the El Salvadoran people, but that’s not currently an option being presented.
The lightning is for mall crawling. It's not really a serious truck if you do legit truck stuff that involves travel aka blue collar workers that often travel to jobs.
You know what got me thinking about it from that perspective was that absurd trolley problem website that was making the rounds a few weeks back. https://neal.fun/absurd-trolley-problems/ in case you're one of the five living humans who hasn't seen it.

Lots of artists are likely to lose their jobs, have trouble finding commissions, commission rates are going to be pushed down, etc. These artists will need retraining, which they’re really unlikely to get. For some, their primary method of putting food on the table will instantly become unprofitable. This will be bad for them.

But that said, the economics are both obvious and uninteresting. It’s the other stuff that I’ve seen most artists talking about, and what I want to at least touch on here.

I may be biased by the fact that my fucking job is the one this shit is coming for but I think the economics of this shit is very much worth talking about.

If I am a musician and I sample someone’s music, I have to pay them for the privilege. But this shit is evolving prompt books chock full of the names of working artists. Why don’t they have to pay (for example) James Gurney something every time someone types “fine art painting by James Gurney” into their prompt? Why don’t they have to work out licensing deals where Gurney can say “actually I do not want your black box to spit out anything based on my work at all, none of my work has ever been Creative Commons and I never gave you any kind of license to put any of my art into your database, you’ll be hearing from my lawyer soon”?

When videocassette recorders came out, the movie industry threw a fit over the prospect of home taping eating all their profits, and every blank tape you bought had a few pennies of its price go into their pockets to cover this. Maybe all of the money going into these AI tools should have a percentage diverted towards artists. How to spread that out is a problem, given that we are generally a bunch of freelance entities - maybe it’d be a good reason for me to finally join the Graphic Artist Guild if that was how that money got spread out. But if this shit is gonna eat all the cheap work then maybe a lot of its profit needs to go to subsidizing the people still trying to get to the point where they’re good enough for art to pay their bills.

All this shit is in a legal grey area, where the art it’s resampling and mashing up is assumed to be free to use and quite possibly may not be. This is something people have not understood for the entire life of the internet: just because an image is posted online does not mean it’s free for you to take and make money from. This shit may technically be “sufficiently transformative” under current copyright laws but I think there are some new copyright laws that need to be made here.

Also, if you are about to post a reply to me about the inevitability of progress, know that I hate you for it, and that I hope that we see a sequel to GitHub’s Copilot very very soon that makes you just as fearful for your job’s future as this one does mine.

Is there any effective process other than carbon filtration for removal of this?
I live in the USA now and filter out most politics from social media. Being an immigrant from a 3rd world country, I lean more conservative so I also don’t care about stuffs you mentioned above

Like, when I browse Reddit popular I automatically don’t read whitepeopletwitter, antiwork, murderedbyaoc, and the like.

I still stay here for the money though. I foresee one day exiting US and letting go of my GC if it becomes too much of a hassle to maintain and go back and build my home country. Currently am worried about the state of public education in the US. Too much wokeness for my taste. Ah maybe I have to go back sooner if I want to raise a child.

Private school in my home country does much more better job than public US education.
It means they figured that monetizing the data they collect on people driving their cars will bring them more cash than selling the cars themselves. The same way electronics manufacturer have doubled their profits on "smart" TV sets over a few years by feeding advertisers knowledge about what you're watching, and when, so you can be targeted more precisely in future ad campaigns.

Have you heard of those small companies called Google and Facebook? Care to compare their market cap with Ford's lately? Do you really think they're worth that much because of their quick web search and easy friend-finding?
There are alternatives for cooling: https://world-nuclear.org/our-association/publications/techn...

In any case nuclear is not the solution to global warming, just part of it (for electricity baseload generation where it makes sense).

Also, France has neglected building new capacity for decades.
There are also social costs.

The car seat requirement limits the extended family who can take kids off your hands for a few hours.

Aunts and uncles used to pop over and take us out for an afternoon at the zoo or to get ice cream. Nowadays I can't take my nieces and nephews out like that until they're practically teenagers because I don't have car seats.
Indeed, China manages to build new reactors at relatively low cost with no problems these days.

What?
Yes, you're correct, and he got it wrong when talking about it.

This kind of goes towards my point. useEffect works, and it works great. It's flexible and powerful - but it's cryptic as hell, and the interface is just "memorize it because you have to", not something more intuitive.

What if useEffect required a 2nd argument, but you had the option to pass in self, which would still offer the onMount behavior, by mirroring the way the other form of it worked? Bada-bing, now there's no exception to the rule. What if the 2nd argument was a named argument, like "trigger"? Now it's self-documenting. What if the teardown function as an optional 3rd argument with a name, too? Now it's easy to glance at a useEffect and tell whether it's declaring a teardown without carefully reading the body. etc etc.

He says "useRef offering a connection to DOM elements is just sugar", but that's not sweet, to me. There's no reason one thing should do two totally different things. That's exactly what I'm complaining about.
> And then software will "learn," and the arms race will continue.

How will the software learn? By having their work feed into the algo.
The creative space is massive and fashions and currents change. In order for the algo to catch up it would need a massive dataset and by the time this is satisfied the art would have moved on to something else..

This tool will still remain and will most likely be used by artists too, though just as a tool in the toolbox, not as a complete process. Fotography didn’t destroy painting, it changed it in unforseen ways.
I’ve already seen GTP-3 used to talk to DALL-E.

Still need to see how to start with an image, get a description, then go back to image with these tools.

"Good" as determined by me. No matter what you do in the world, there will always be people who like what you do and people who hate what you did.

That said, you would benefit from learning about effective altruism, it is a philosophical and social movement that advocates using evidence and reason to figure out how to benefit others as much as possible, and taking action on that basis.
Title should perhaps say (2010).

I believe it has been known for a while now that a Mersenne Twister has a few drawbacks, though the paper seems to make no real conclusions as to which PRNG produces better results for their simulations, only that 1 PRNG (LCG) produces noticeably different results to the other two (including MTG).
I've only been looking at older houses and I assumed gray tones had something to do with old movies or Leave it To Beaver being black and white.
What I don't understand about the bay area is why they don't just dedicate an area away from these NIMBY neighborhoods- say north of 101, between San Carlos and Santa Clara and let them build lots of skyscrapers with lots of housing and roads to help 101 divert some traffic. I see tall office buildings there so its def not earthquake or environmental. Affordable housing and urban lifestyle for the young and SFH and space for the family folks in Atherton.

The number of lives saved by car seats sounded very low, but the paper compares reduced childbirths to the saved lives because of the law (mandating the use of car seats), not to the saved lives because of car seats themselves.

We have sufficient evidence from France and Germany that safe reactor designs are safe.
AFAIK, if you don't have a touchscreen you've got Sync 1 (it's the 4-inch LCD). Unfortunately, my steering wheel controls don't work, so I couldn't use voice control to change the input (and replacing the head unit was way less complex & expensive than the steering wheel controls).

I don't mind the touch screen for CarPlay since all the important controls (volume, mute, skip, Siri) have physical buttons, all the unimportant controls are very large and hard to miss, and CarPlay has very few menus requiring more than 1-2 taps; though I had to be careful to pick out a CarPlay unit with an actual knob for volume, since a lot of them just have buttons that you have to mash repeatedly to change the volume. But not having the physical buttons at all would really suck, especially for things like climate control.

For those who use (or want to use) SSH to connect to GitHub for Git, I wrote 11 years ago a tool to maintain my SSH settings for GitHub. I still actively maintain it.

* performance settings (ControlMaster)
The amount of water available in comets is laughably inadequate to fill Venus's shortfall. But anyway its day length would make it very close to useless to try to terraform.

Shipping in enough hydrogen from (say) Neptune might be possible in principle using billions of automated, self-reproducing nuclear powered spacecraft.

If its atmosphere could be precipitated and the carbon freed of oxygen and somehow permanently protected from runaway combustion, the planet's low (2.64°) axial tilt and solar proximity might make a polar existence possible. But the overwhelming excess of oxygen would need to be removed or bound up in water. (The carbon might then be safely kept under water. Or, be crystallized out as diamond, which is hard to ignite.)

Quadrillions of aluminum foil balloons full of nitrogen bobbing in the stratosphere might suffice to bring temperature down.

Perhaps surprisingly, the present 3.5% of its atmosphere that is nitrogen is more than Earth's total.

As noted elsewhere, Venus's magnetic field is not much like Earth's, although it stretches almost to Earth's orbit, and might have crossed it in the past. (Such events might account for Venus's baleful reputation in to the oldest myths.)
I recently did a month of interviews and determined the same. Everyone is cargo culting everyone else why move for basically the same situation.
This reminds me of the people who think public companies (traded on the stock market) are publicly owned (part of the government) and so want the First Amendment to apply to getting banned from Facebook.
> High density housing has no excuse though...

Your earlier still argument applies: higher density housing is cheaper, and brings in "bad elements" - people lower on the socio-economic scale who can't afford to buy or rent the less dense homes present currently. It's class warfare.
This is about to happen as we speak now that Colorado is stopping water deliveries.

How do you sell a multi-million dollar home in a remote location with no access to water?

If people want houses to be treated as investments, then they should be punished as such when their bet goes sideways.

To add to this: many CAD products share the same underlying "engine" that computes the geometry of intersections, unions, surfaces of revolution, chamfers, bevels, etc...

The value as linkdink said above is the add-ons, integrations, extensions, and the like.

It's a bit like Unreal Engine 5 having integrated the Quixel model library. You don't just get some C++ code, you also get ready-made art assets. And then you get compatibility with four game console platforms, mobile platforms, etc...
