Sounds like a dumb interview. Are you sure you want to work there? How can you do any of this if you have never used the libraries. Else it must be so simple and obvious (at least to the interviewer) that they think it is a no brainer. Likely they want you to unwind some loops and use some of Pandas Vectorized routines. But as this article states https://pythonspeed.com/articles/pandas-vectorization/ that is not always easy to do. It takes a lot of work to get good performance. Improve SQL performance - which one? Mysql, Postgres, etc. Sounds like an interview designed by an engineer.
>Newer chemistries like LFP do not use rare earth metals and have far higher cycle times.

Technically correct, as lithium isn't a rare earth. Lithium mining isn't free from controversy, however. The "Lithium Triangle" in South America contains most of the world's known lithium reserves. Mining companies in Chile, the world's second-largest lithium producer, have less than a sterling human rights record:

Use nginx anti-bot[1] or product such as Fastly or Cloudflare anti-bot feature, which blocks content scrapping and only allows specific bots using rules or AI. Another option is to block VPN, cloud and hosting companies' ASNs. There is no benefit for you allowing someone to scrap your content apart from Bing and Google. The rest of the bots can die, or you will lose your content to scrappers. So finally, put it behind a paywall if possible. Of course, the paywall only works if you have good content or buying ads to promote it. Good luck, mate.

There are proven instances where systems such as this can remain stable. Slavery is one. There are tons and tons of other systems throughout human history where massive inequality remains stable.

In fact inequality is the bedrock of civilization according to our current theories of anthropology.

How do self interested parties gather together to fund great infrastructure projects and technology required for the progress of civilization? People on their own are self interested do not assist others outside of family or tribal units.

What causes people to organize is that there must be a small group of wealthy individuals who pays a Large group of individuals who lack wealth to work together. This isn't something I'm making up. This is the basis for the formation of civilization according to anthropology and there there are loads and loads of research and papers that support this theory so it is currently the best of what we know.

So it is not at all clear that the result is trivial. your conclusion is not at all scientific or logical you're just going off your intuition which is highly flawed.
Could you please recommend a better link on this specific topic?
I'd like a source for the first. Given no other information, the best estimate of the energy footprint of the manufacturing process for an item is its shelf price.

This works particularly well for cheap items, where raw material costs (which are mostly just the energy cost of mining and refining) and shipping costs dominate. Usually, things are shipped around so they can be processed in the most specialized/energy efficient facility available. For small items, the pollution associated with shipping via ocean freight is miniscule.

As for the second point, the current system is fragile, but compared to what? If I had to pick a pandemic to live through at any point in time so far, covid would be my first choice.

> Unions are back

My God, I wish there were establishment figures pushing the unionization narrative but, on the contrary, workplace bargaining remains obscure and extremely unsupported by institutions. The workers I know who are organizing do not have "establishment" backing. It's hard even getting business unions to return phonecalls! Labor organizing is a massive, industrious undertaking that's NOT subsidized by established institutions but, rather, by the workers' families on our nights and weekends.

It's absurd to suggest that union efforts—misguided though you made consider them to be—are fueled by anything but the sweat of our own brow. It's flattering, though, that you think labor organizers have accomplished, independently, what appears, to you, heavily subsidized.

> The school would insist that all children's phones are set up this way

Unless the school is paying for your kid's phone and plan, they should have exactly zero say in how it's set up.
When asked (usually by students and junior engineers) which class helped me most with my career, I always cite Senior Year High school English (American 12th grade). Mrs. Scott taught me more about organizing my thoughts and structuring a paper (and program) than any CS class I took ever did.
Over and above hypotheticals about "they know each other from school" or "it affects the learning environment":

School administrations should have less power than they have now, rather than more. If you let them be responsible for kids' actions outside of school, nothing good will come of it. They're not competent to take on that job.

If you generate a crazy fuckton of body heat and then stand outside in those temperatures for only a few minutes, obviously you're gonna be fine. That's not controversial, and NBA players routinely spend a minute or two surrounded by temperatures of -200 degrees as part of whole-body cryotherapy.

Doing that without having sufficient warm clothes or a warm space nearby is very dangerous, because once you've radiated all your stored heat, you will freeze to death.

Likewise, 120F is totally fine if you're well hydrated and in a dry environment.

If you're dehydrated or it's humid, you will die. The wet-bulb temperature that will kill a human being is just 95F.

You SHOULD fear extreme temperatures - if you don't treat them with respect and make sure you're prepared, it's very easy to end up in a terrible situation.
Yes, and you have to go even further and more general. The solution is actually urbanism. You can't just build trains and hope everything is gone be fine.

Living in low or high density urban environments is far more efficient in pretty much every single way that we can measure. CO2, energy, land use, water use and so on, and not just by a little but by a huge margin.

Transport can be electrified trains, trams, trolly buses, metros. This uses very few battery materials and essentially no new technology. All technology read to deploy in large numbers.

This would also 'solve' the housing crisis as increasing density around transportation with mixed use is what leads to much cheaper living cost (housing and transportation need to be seen together).

This talk by famous City Planner Peter Calthorpe is really good and goes into detail. He and his teams were charged with making a few projection plans for California and have really good numbers on all of these things (except the nuclear I mentioned):

As others have said this being caused by proper functioning Pi Hole functionality (DNS) is impossible. As you’ve said I know many people using it with Comcast.

Networks are very funny things and much more complicated than most appreciate. Almost 10 years ago a blog post[0] I wrote with some crazy network debugging was the top post on HN.

I don’t expect you to read the full post but I was able to root cause analysis an issue with cause and effect that no one with network experience would think possible. Long story short in my case a specific byte value at an exact byte location would crash the ethernet controller and cause it to drop off the PCIe bus. You could forward billions of packets and it would never happen. Or one wrong one and end up having to power cycle to get it back…

I’m guessing you have a similar situation here. Maybe the Raspbery PI is glitching somehow and spamming absolute garbage traffic at the modem, which may or may not be forwarded to the DOCSIS side (which is shared broadcast). I could see Comcast booting the modem from the network in this scenario.

Maybe you have your own “packet of death” type scenario where the DNS requests from the Pi Hole and some other specific aspect of the traffic trigger something in the modem (more likely) or head end and crashing (kind of like my situation).

Or any of the other millions of things with a technical underlying cause that could be presenting here.

Unless you want to spend hundreds of hours debugging this like I did you’ll have to do what we all do everyday which is shrug your shoulders, say “Huh, that was weird”, and accept that you found yet another strange bug out there.

What I can say is what we’ve all said and what you’ve found elsewhere. This is not some Comcast advertising related conspiracy targeting you.

Hanlon’s Razor and all.

No billionaire is contributing anything close to what they're receiving in return. They should be compensated with an amount that's commensurate to the role they fill within an organization. Elon, for example, is a glorified manager and should be paid a manager's salary and nothing more.

Can you give an example of a billionaire bringing tens of thousands times as much value as an average employee at a company? Imagine that they are not already a billionaire.

It does seem that friction in the bearing and tension of the wires is not sufficiently controlled for the physical demonstration to be convincing.

However, the mathematics of it seems to have already been confirmed by a previous paper and the actual idea of changing orientation without exchanging momentum with anything is not novel.

You can turn a satellite by spinning up a flywheel and then reabsorbing the angular momentum when you reach the desired orientation.

Yeah, honestly it has been difficult to feel like I made the right decision because I hear a lot that this is standard. Unfortunately I'm flat-broke and can hardly afford a lawyer atm. I'd take the job and just deal except that the contract really does say they own some of my basic knowledge of how to do what I do, forever. Real dealbreaker.
Sorry, but MyPy and friends can barely hold a candle to what actual static-typing systems do - Rust, Haskell, OCaml, Typescript, even .Net (C#/F#) offer more safety and guarantees.

Type hints in python are _just that_, they're hints. The whole "typed" python ecosystem relies on packages and the language using them, using them correctly, and using them consistently. In my experience so far, I've seen little widespread use, and nothing from core python, which is a huge hole IMO.
To be fair, I had similar experiences with 4-5 other lisp books I read. For the kinds of uses I have, I think Python is just more convenient. If I actually needed to write some compiler or grammar processing app or something like that, I'd bet Lisp could win, but I don't have those needs at present. It was a great learning experience though.
This isn't a "personal attack" as the complaint isn't personal. My comment isn't even about Pavlo himself: it is about the pattern of how it only seems like Apple employees ever talk up this program, and, "lo and behold", this is such an example. I don't pick at Pavlo for being a bad person, or even attack his comment: I complain about the immorality of the terms and mechanism of the program as well as the ridiculousness of how only Apple people defend it.

If my comment is a problem, then the extremely common comments from people on Hacker News complaining that someone is from Cloudflare or from Google--or from any number of cryptocurrency projects that seemingly the zeitgeist on Hacker News is always angry about--and are shilling some random project are also problematic; and yet, I don't believe I have ever seen you attempt to call people out about any of those: in fact, Hacker News seems to have a pretty clear "it is OK to shit on people who work on cryptocurrency projects" policy.

Meanwhile, Apple really shouldn't get any kind of defense, here: you know part of why Pavlo comes around obliquely commenting with no obvious mention anywhere (in comments, bio, etc.) that he's from Apple? I'll claim it isn't even (directly) his fault! Apple, the company, seems to have a policy against people identifying themselves on social media services so strong that if anyone gets attention--even if they are being helpful--it seems to land them in water hot enough that they have to sit around and wait to find out if they are being fired... such as the story of this poor employee on TikTok I've been following the last couple days:

https://www.tiktok.com/@/video/7131094900778503470

I think this is a shitty policy (whether explicit or implicit: the chilling effect is the same) that Apple has, and it isn't something we should be indirectly helping and supporting by claiming that anyone noting "this person is actually from Apple"--which seems to be the only thing I did, and which I do believe was important context for my comment--is a "personal attack". While I definitely believe that people who work for the large tech companies should be held accountable for the actions of those companies, none of my attacks today are personal: they are all against the explicitly-faceless corporate entity known as Apple.
> Then the police.

In some regions, this is a bit unrealistic.

I grew up in a neighborhood where the bully's dad was the police captain. The bully would target brown kids and property of their parents (e.g. M80 down the chimney, among other atrocities). Everyone in town new the son acted with impunity. Kids our age knew it was worse: the dad actively encouraged his son, and gave him the M80s. No one would talk about it in public, less they be targeted as well.
Practical reasons of replacing "all the routers" aside ... would this even be desirable?

The American conception of democracy does not, by any means, refer to an ability to get the government to carry out the will of 51% of the populace. It is even specifically designed _not_ to do that, on purpose, for very good reasons. Here are some:

- 51% of people can do wrong against the other 49%.

- 51% of people can do wrong against themselves by making an uninformed decision.

- Tomorrow the 51% become the 49% and vice versa. If unchecked power was given to whoever was currently 51%, it would spell whiplash and chaos.

So you structure the whole thing into smaller deliberative bodies where people (who are periodically selected by 51% majorities) have better information and means to strike good compromises that are unattainable through raw public opinion. A fuller and more appropriate name for this is "a democratic republic", for which "democracy" is used as a shorthand.

Some of these bodies have authority only over local areas, because you can make a more tailored decision when you have fewer things to deal with. Some of these local bodies, as another commenter noted, may conduct referendums to decide whether to make a law. Other bodies have authority over the whole land, but only over coarse-grained topics with only highly limited authority over the smaller local bodies.

And at the highest level, there is one body where people's very local representatives have a vote and another body where people's region-wide representatives have a vote, and these bodies must agree in order to do most things.

And you make one small body almost completely insulated from public opinion so that you can task it with protecting not just 49% from the whims of 51%, but protecting one individual person (yes, even a guilty criminal individual) against the rest of the government and against whatsoever the remaining 330 million people may think of this person.

And yes, the vote for the president is not a raw popular vote. There is a level of indirection through another body that often does, but may not, yield the same result as a popular vote would. But it does not logically follow that Americans do not vote for their president.

And you don't let the president make laws or rule on cases or send the country to war.

The guiding principle is not to let one person or one group of people have too much power. A majority of Americans having consensus on a given issue is one such group whose power is intentionally limited.

Could the whole thing be designed better than it is? Of course. Will people always screw it up no matter how well designed it is? Of course.
You must be replying to the wrong comment, because I didn't say anything like that. Next time trust your instinct that you got it wrong.
The person writing here is one of the entities/personalities yes. We're all aware of each other, so that's what makes this different from DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder) or at least it was different back during the initial diagnosis of schizotypal personality disorder in 2001.
It is always the case. Another fallacy that can only be the result of your flawed intuition.

All human capability has limits. You have limited strength and limited intelligence. There is no amount of intelligence or physical strength in a single human that can allow one man to build a feat of technology such as a Boeing 747. It can't even be done by one human in 10 lifetimes. This fundamental impossibility in your words is "always the case."

Yet there are individuals that exist in the world with enough wealth to buy several 747s. You will see that anyone with this amount of wealth could not have achieved this wealth through the sheer power of their individual IQ or physical strength. They had to have worked with many others in order to achieve such wealth. The existence of said individuals completely verifies the existence of how wealth is distributed unfairly. There is no fair barter that can allow one man to gain a 747 unless that man extracted work off the backs of others. It is logically impossible if this was not the case.

The only thing you can argue here is that wealth inequality is required for society to progress; but there is no argument on whether or not the resources are distributed fairly.
