> Is this a real risk or "we've always done it this way"?

I assume the risk assessment assumes some percentage of sick pigs are contained within each. In the US, this percentage is tracked. From another country, the upper, and probably very realistic, bound is 100%. Think small, unvaccinated farm, or one that slaughters sick pigs because they need the money. It would be interesting to see their math.

Swine fever just recently has a vaccine. I doubt many US pigs are vaccinated: https://www.science.org/content/article/news-glance-african-...
Yeah, we do enjoy that human connection / communication. That's why I think we will see a lot of artists using AI to generate their art and then sell it as if it were their own and assign some deep meaning to them.
Backs descendants worked as court musicians for the various Germanic states right up until WWI.

The "enterprisey" part of .NET is the brand itself. It's well-established in the enterprise, less so outside of it.
Seems to me you can do that in a way that ensures low contention between consumers by using a read-biased MRSW lock. It's not free such a construction, but it really shouldn't eat into your read performance all that much. You're adding hundreds of nanoseconds to your query time by acquiring and releasing a lock. Unless you're already serving millions of queries per second per thread, this is piss in the ocean.
This is simply growing pains. Nobody who needs gas plans out their stops on a road trip. They simply notice they're low, and pull of at the next station. As much as I'd like to have two way communication with my car and android auto, it's probably unrealistic to expect the auto industry (in tandem with Google) to actually move fast enough to implement something like that before it's no longer useful.

> 0. In case anyone is curious why outside temperature is relevant, EVs take outside temperature into their calculation of estimated range, because lower temperatures reduce range available.

That's actually not important at all. Simply noting the current rate of discharge/speed is enough. I use ABRP with a bluetooth ADB dongle to get live data to my maps for long road trips and it works wonderfully. It doesn't have to be perfect since hardly any EV driver is going to want to be under 20% battery when they arrive at a charger.

> Unless Google and Apple somehow get access to that live data from the vehicle itself in real time

Apple is working on it. Google will likely follow suite. Neither are likely to be implemented in a vehicle I own before it's irrelevant though.
It absolutely would not be vented. It would be liquified and stored to use in rockets. They can't go home until they get enough of that and of methane. It will soon occupy all their thought, and squat their dreams. being stuck until the launch window opens up again.
My experience with decompilers like Hexrays is that they do a much faster and more accurate job at figuring out typical compiler output than I can do manually.

You are right that naming stuff is the important part, which is what a decompiler lets you focus on. OOP code with lots of getters and setters is particularly irritating --- I don't want to manually decompile "mov eax, [esp+8] ; mov [ecx+12], eax" several dozen times when the decompiler can turn all of those into setters/getters for the right fields quickly and accurately.

Of course, when you are dealing with typically-obfuscated binaries like malware or DRM-related stuff, the situation is completely different.
I have total control over my car's A/C through 3 rotary dials and can adjust all parameters to my liking without taking my eyes off the road a single millisecond. Doing so also requires much less attention than maintaining a non-important conversation with my usual passenger, who likes to talk a lot.
Further, Apple will now do it's own tracking while observing privacy by keeping the tracking data inside the device [1].

It has already disabled the ability of 3rd party apps to perform tracking locally while preserving privacy by "disabling the ability of apps to share data locally within a device". If you click an Amazon ad on Facebook and open the Amazon app, Apple will not allow Amazon to report a successful conversion locally (thus preserving privacy) to the Facebook app.

However the same restriction won't apply to Apple as they are the operating system.

Note that Apple is always complaining about "privacy", not Ads. They are going to go all in on Ads.

[1] I suspect law enforcement will still be able to access the local data from the phone, so the privacy preserving tracking might not work when you need it the most.
There's nothing particularly magical about craft. Craft is a process that most people can learn. But art is not craft. The magic of art is in the artist's taste and personality.

Until AI has a sense of good taste and can carefully blend multiple styles into a new genre, the human cannot be replaced. And at that point we're basically at the singularity.

I'm very jealous of the US car market where there's a lot of AWD sedan options.

Here in NZ we have the Camary, Mazda 6, Lexus IS etc but none of them are available in AWD. Only crossovers, SUVs and Utes (small pick up trucks).

I've actually been toying with the idea of getting a Subaru WRX. I'm not a a boyracer or anything, but it's about the only japanese, AWD sedan available here. Feels like a weirdly practical choice (good cornering, better handling in ice/heavy rain/gravel).

EDIT: wow even modern Rav4s fail the moose test - a car which I'd call pretty mild for an SUV, even wagon like.
Project Pluto: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Pluto

The US did build a nuclear powered ramjet engine and test it. This isn't an insurmountable hurdle, it's an achieved one. The design they used of course has lots of good reasons we should not use it on Earth (namely, the reactor would activate the air, meaning it spews a plume of oxygen and nitrogen isotopes) but it does work.

You can solve the radionucleotide problem by running it off hydrogen instead, which doesn't activate in any meaningful quantity.

Basically, not only do we have the ability, we had it in 1961.

Note that the JS client is deliberately limited in the queries it can perform[1].

You can also be fully restrictive by only allowing the client to call the custom SQL functions[2] you define. In Supabase this is done by having all your tables in a "private" schema and only SQL functions in the "public" schema(whose db objects get exposed to the client).

Still, you have to admit that 100 USD is in no touch with reality (if it was actually said).

We are talking about a plane that will burn much more fuel (which they claim will be carbon neutral) and fly a fraction of the passengers per trip, on routes that are already very competitive. 100 USD will only be a heavily subsidized fare at best. In reality the cost per route will much more likely be far higher.

Larger disk space does help effortlessly scale storage in single-node systems, but I agree with you that shared nothing (and/or shared something) is a necessary step for extracting maximum performance on a larger machine. When it comes to distributed architectures, shared nothingness is important as well. The decoupling of storage from compute and stateless from stateful helps minimize resource allocation when it comes to billion-scale vector storage, indexing, and search. Milvus 2.0 implements this type of architecture - here's a link to our VLDB 2022 paper, if you're interested: https://arxiv.org/abs/2206.13843

You could try something simple like kefir, we did it for our dog mostly. It is very simple. You just strain the yoghurt when it's at your desired thickness, then put fresh milk and the strained grains back in the jar. Over time you'll get too many grains, so you can be the annoying person giving them away and converting people or just feed them to the dog like we did. Optionally, you can do a second ferment in the fridge to let it mature, with optional flavourings. We quickly had too much to use but it works as a substitute for buttermilk and yoghurt in recipes.

I got the original grains from Facebook marketplace or something, we met in a carpark and she sold me a jar for $10 and the whole thing felt a bit like a drug deal. Just like transplanting a plant, you might have middling results until the organisms get used to your way of doing things (your water and room temperature, how long you wait, milk ratio, etc).

Then I forgot about it for a while and it all died but it was very obvious when it "turned", and took a lot longer than expected.
there's also other salts in it besides sodium chloride. for some reason my brain tells me that pink salt is saltpeter, but that's potassium nitrate, and wikipedia says pink salt is sodium nitrate.

The controls should not be visible to the driver. Move that touch screen over to the navigators seat and make it nice and convient for them to use. A little angle to the driver can't see it at all would be good.

The driver should have limited controls, all physical, and all ergonomicly designed to be easy to find. Even programming your phone GPS while moving should require the navigator to hit accept.

Screens for the driver should be carefully designed to not be something you look at while moving.
I don't doubt that, I was replying to this:

There's a lot of griping about on democracy being insufficient, unable to do real things. This is a long long long article about sick contortions we currently have to make to cater to one man to get anything at all. I feel like a lot of folks are itching to cancel democracy, but imo, I'd much rather we just try to unjam things up more. We should make it easier for government to experiment & try things. For future governments to unwind/redo & iterate. Doing any kind of a job feels impossible with the legalistic adversarialism & unwavering post-Hastert Rule divide. Democracy has gotten jammed up & this whole article feels less a testament to hard work & long negotiations: it's a testamemt to how a party with overwhelming popular support needed any kind of a chance to actually try & do anything at all, & how overly checked & imbalanced that has become.

I have a hard time scoping how big these demands really are, but insisting we drill more oil is a particularly vulgar Manchin demand, one that deliberately pissess on the graves of our planet's climate,

> The law includes requirements — some created by Manchin himself — that would further oil and gas development on federal lands and waters. New renewable power projects on federal lands are contingent on oil and gas leasing over the next decade, and there are mandates to sell drilling rights in the Gulf of Mexico and Alaska's Cook Inlet.

I also just feel like the timing of 18 months of this congress being absolutely useless, then finally right before election season at the 23rd hour finally doing something is, shall we say conspicuous. This all feels a bit staged. Not that I have a hard time believing one WV senator would have been so instransigent & unbenevolent.
I thought California law (for now) forced utilities to provide "net metering" - where your credits during the day offset your usage at night 1:1. No batteries needed. I don't know why that wouldn't apply to your friend.

The article is unclear whether this is 1 or 2 Tesla at a point, or if what's needed is a field that's 1 or 2 Tesla over a large area, which would be a lot more than "an MRI machine's worth". Interesting idea anyways.

yes we socialize the downside for lots of stuff, not just debt. Two wrongs don't make a right, though.

By canceling this debt, no school (or student) will have learned the lesson, and indeed schools can take advantage of students even more now!
One aspect of being an artist is to get precisely what you want, down to the last detail.

Currently most generated images seem to need significant touchups to be a good image.

For future generators to meet the specificity requirement they will need the language to describe it.
there is nothing more gutting than seeing the purpose that art can give to some people when you work somewhere that you dont believe in
That seems like expected behavior, or at least one worth testing with an IP checker or something on the tethered device. I would be pretty surprised if I connected to a VPN on my mobile device, then tethered to it, and my traffic went over the VPN tunnel. I would just establish a VPN tunnel on the tethered device if I wanted that.
> Not all artists are like that, and IME the more successful and experienced ones are the least likely to think that way, but the attitude is quite common with beginners who haven't accomplished much yet.

Lots of beginners in every field think that they're God's gift to whatever it is that they've just started. They're going to change the world, etc. That comes with the territory of being a beginner. Usually they mellow with age and experience.

>I have more admiration for someone who's laying down cement in 100 degree weather to put a roof over their family's heads, or someone who's putting in the hours massaging mindnumbingly boring spreadsheets to be able to support themselves, or someone putting in overtime at a hospital. The expectation that people must support you and give you preferential treatment because you're expressing yourself never made sense to me.

Just because you don't see the hours of training and production that goes into something, doesn't mean it isn't there. I might spend 10,000 hours practicing to spend 200 hours writing a novel that you read in 20 hours. I might spend four years in college and ten years writing a computer program that you'll use once. Lots of artwork is produced as work for hire. That doesn't make it that much different than any other job. A trained professional getting payment for services rendered is how things have worked since antiquity. Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel ceiling because he was commissioned to, not just because he was expressing himself

> You always see signs exhorting you to "support your local artists", yet you never see encouragement to support your local roofers.

You see signs asking you to support local roofers all the time. What do you think all of those commercials on radio, television, print media, billboards, etc. are that advertising all of the roofing services?

Roofers produce roofs. Chefs produce food. Artists produce art. It takes labor to produce art, and if you want good art, it also takes years of training and practice. But somehow working to produce art is seen as 'lesser' than doing manual physical labor.

It's weird. It's expected that in most professions even beginners deserve to get paid. But the arts are somehow different. There's this expectation that artists should produce works for the benefit of society (and don't forget, 'art' is much more than just drawing pretty pictures, it's also the vast field of fine art, music, movies, television, writing, and a lot of other media) but that the work should be free. There's this unspoken feeling that since lots of art is easy to appreciate, it must have been easy to create, so paying for it is a waste of money. But have you ever tried to paint a picture? Compose a song? Write a novel? It's hard. It takes time. It can take thousands of hours of practice before you make anything good.

It's kind of like arguing that a programmer asking for money for the programming work that they do is somehow shaming people into supporting them for typing all day instead of doing real work that commands real pay like bricklaying or cattle ranching.

Blue collar jobs that require dexterity
I was recently driven by someone in an EV in a busy parking lot and the amount of pedestrians that were entirely not aware of our presence as we slowly creeped up behind them was disturbing. Some even had to be horned. Ten or twenty years ago, people would notice you approaching just from the engine sound and naturally move aside or at least turn around and look.

The fact that the artificial sounds some of them have are not all that different from the sound of the wind doesn't help either.

> Mobile engineers didn’t want to write RN code and web engineers didn’t want to build on mobile

That's interesting. In our experience, we're having a difficult time hiring folks that want to write native (including UI) in antiquated languages and frameworks - but it's much easier to hire JavaScript folks that just hack at RN.

Of course, someone still needs to stand up the actual platform, as well as write shared (and sometimes platform specific) pieces of functionality mostly in C++ so for now I guess us oldtimers still have some job security :)
Can you elaborate a bit? When I have a project I'm really exited about working on I'm productive and it feels great, when it's something I have to do for the business but I don't love the project, I'm slow and doing the work is a grind.
