It's easier to redefine what you think of as good than it is to make any progress toward changing capitalism. Once you simply define good in terms of the fruits of capitalism[profit] then the two become one and the problem ceases to exist. The kids today would probably call it being $-pilled or something.

Not sure. I know that the conglomerate Outokumpu once had a pilot plant with high-Tc superconducting magnets deployed in the Amazon region somewhere ('Ice in the jungle'? Hah, hold my beer, try liquid-helium cooled superconducting magnets in the jungle).

I know because a colleague joined the company, and one of his first assignments was to diagnose unexpectedly large helium losses. A quick FFT later of the recorded Dewar flask levels revealed a 24-hour periodicity, and further analysis found that for a couple of hours every day, the full heat of the tropical sun was finding its way to the tin roof of the mine shed housing the superconducting magnet systems.

I haven't heard anything more about the technology or its economics/scaling since then. But I also certainly haven't heard anything more about its use with landfill-derived feedstocks, which seems like a reasonable move.

It would have been interesting to see how things would have turned out had Microsoft been able to continue integrating the OS and web browser.

At this point I expect most users expect the OS to include a web browser and would consider it deficient otherwise. I'm not sure if it's even possible to replace Chrome with Firefox on ChromeOS.

When switching away from DreamHost, I researched different domain registrars. I chose to try Namecheap and Dynadot, so I sent half of my domains to Namecheap, and the other half to Dynadot.

After the transfer lock peroid, I moved my domains from Namecheap to Dynadot. The prices were pretty much the same, but the interface was better, and Dynadot also passes on "name tasting" to the user (users can request a refund if they change their mind after buying a domain name).

I've also sinced used Dynadot's customer service one time, and it was good.

My only gripe with Dynadot is at the login screen: I set up 2FA, and they call it a "Google code", when you can use any other 2FA manager besides Google.
Because even if you measure it by doubling the transistor and ignoring die size, aka density, the straight line graph is still broke.

The thing with extracting water, esp when youre in so-cal... is that any evening-dew-harvesting system is going to need to be massive. And likely your terra-forma (topology) is not conducive to passive dew harvestings via nets and such due to moisture-point-heavy airflow not passing through whatever net you have...

Use you're free electricity to build and drill a super deep-aquifer level well.... (Source: my dad owned one of the water companies in california... electricity for pumping/drilling/blah blah... is expensive.)
Look at the example dockerfile farther down in the article. They're performing the build inside of a dotnet sdk container then creating the application container. It sounds like you're performing the build outside of a container and just packaging the artifacts.
> I think we keep talking past each other.

On this I guess we agree! :)

> Which is why in Islam we have three sources of truth: observations, logic, and the honest news. We have established that Muhammad, Prayers of God be upon him, existed, and the Quran is preserved, and the authentic Hadiths are preserved. He performed miracles, and foretold events, some of which only came true in the past couple of decades (more at www.provingislam.com). As such, we trust what he brought forth to us.

Again I can't follow your reasoning. You say that Islam is based on three sources of truth, one being logic but you at the same time claim that god does not follow logic and that we should not try to apply our logic to understand him and his rules. This makes no sense.

> I believe Islam is 100% correct. If I don't, then by definition I am not a Muslim. We don't get to pick and choose what we like and don't like. Of course, you're going to have to mention exactly what you mean by "some parts of Islam", that's quite a vague term.

But there is more than one version of Islam, isn't there? That means you also believe that only your version is the one true version. It also means you believe there cannot have been any mistakes in any of the writings. In any passed on stories. If there is no room for errors then there is no room for improvement. These prophets and scholars were 100% perfect. New knowledge can not supersede old knowledge. This is the definition of blind belief. You don't accept the possibility of errors. You leave no room for another view.

"Some parts of Islam" is intentionally vague because I asked if you believed if it is 100% true. It does not matter what parts of Islam I was refering to because 100% by definition covers it all.

There have been a great number of religions throughout thousands of years. Or iterations and versions of the certain religions. I find it arrogant and shortsighted to believe that your version is the final one and no other that comes after it will be better.

Oh this is interesting:

Human history stretches back 200,000 years according to some estimates. The agricultural revolution started about 12,000 year ago in multiple locations around the world. The first civilization was Sumer, started some 8,500 years ago. The first known writings are from Mesoamerica around 5,300 years ago. Socrates was put to death 2421 years ago. Cesar was killed 2066 years ago. Christianity began 2000 years ago, and Islam began 1412 years ago.

Most of human history we will know nothing about. At most we'll find a few hints of complex cultures and technology spread out across time. These people were just as intelligent as you and I, yet their lives will forever be shrouded in a mysterious past.
for evidence that this is mostly bullshit, look no further than bizarre things like this:

> Whales, the argument goes, consume a ruinous quantity of fish, and controlling their population is critical for preserving the oceans’ diversity. An online video from an industry association recommends eating the mammals “to protect the balance of the marine ecosystem and contribute to marine S.D.G.s!”

It is fascinating that whales have found a way to be both an endangered species, and an overpopulated ocean scourge (as an apex predator, no less) at the same time!
I feel like I should add: don't get a magic mouse. Get a 3 button USB mouse, and a USB-C adapter if need be.

Magic mouse is cool for a week then it sucks. It loses connection and scrolling and clicks are not 100% reliable. Its also expensive.
>You fell into the trap of thinking that each person needs to verify each claim in order to put general trust in science.

I am not falling into any trap. Science and religion has its legit original purpose (religion was never meant to explain nature, though it does it as part of its own way of accomplishing its goals). But both are prone to exploitation by selfish entities, because of the need or requirement of laymans belief in the ir claims.

So ultimately, a religious claim and a scientific claim that cannot be realistically verified by 99.9 % of people are both similar, and both can end up casuing similar evils.

>religion does not and should not, especially with its centuries-long history of malice and suppression towards free and scientific thought

That I was referring to. Show me where Zoroastrianism, Sikhism, and Bahaism are against scientific thought.

Being familiar with a smattering of religious texts you learned in University is hardly enough to make such large claims about every single religion in the entire world.
Interestingly, I just walked out to a large chestnut tree on Spring Street by my place in Nevada City, CA and measured it's circumference - I got 127 inches, roughly - getting the tape measure around it was a bit challenging. It might be 40-50 feet tall but there is another much taller with less diameter down the hill from it (tree mentioned in article is 50 ft tree, 35 inch diameter, pretty average for here).

There are many chestnut trees in the town, planted in the gold rush days, I believe. last fall, I gathered enough nuts walk around town to supplement my diet for a few months. The nuts haven't started falling this year.

Of course, these tree survived the blight because they're well outside the range of the Eastern Chestnut. But still, if someone wants to see chestnut trees, they're here and probably in a lot of places where they were planted outside their range.
I'd love to hear some of your recommendations for books you've read or skim-evaluated that yield a large magnitude vector on your <1, 2, 3, 4>-space.
In many other states, the punitive approach was favored: everybody with a record was forbidden from the industry. That, combined with the exorbitant tax rate, encouraged the black market to continue operating. By offering people a path to legitimization, you have a hope of meaningfully reducing criminality. With the puritanical fire and brimstone model, you push the criminals into other markets, like fentanyl.

Not wrong, but for more context, they made their Russian customers transfer their domains, when their Ukrainian offices started getting shelled by Russian invaders. It’s hard to stay politically neutral when your staff are literally being bombed
it happens the other way too. I used to contribute to a small ssl VPN project (adito) that was 'aquired' by barracuda networks. It was forked and picked up by OpenVPN (as openvpn-als) but development stopped. I believe it's still updated internally and forms part of Barracudas firewall offering.

Quote: "self-publishing well is expensive (four, five digits easily)"

This is basically correct, although it depends on the definition of "well". You can get a halfway decent cover for $100-$500, and you can get a halfway decent copy editor for about $500-$1000. Tools like Scrivener can handle all the ebook and paper edition formatting for you, with built-in templates, so that's another $100 or so for the tooling, but you can reuse this for future books. Publishing to Amazon and other places (like Smashwords) is free, and this includes print-on-demand paperback copies as well.

What it does take is a lot of time for learning how to use all the tools and to navigate the many options available for covers, editing, etc.

As far as marketing expenses go, there are no good ways to spend money to sell books. I think you're correct that nobody knows how to do it. If you don't win the lottery and get featured on a celebrity's book club, how is anyone supposed to ever know that you even released a book?
Basically yes. Although the reverse. USA thought overwhelming technical superiority would make it easy...in fact asymmetric insurgency is very difficult to defeat.
They do in NZ as well, but there are times when you need to pay additional taxes for some reason. E.g.earn extra income that isn't through an employer you need to declare and pay taxes on.

I guess it's for those cases you use the Pay Taxes option in my banks app. I've used it a few times and it's really useful
A co-op like Mondragon but global in scope is at the center of 'Islands in the Net' by Bruce Sterling.

> No. I as mentioned in another post, God exists outside the realms of this reality, and is not bound by our laws. He created our laws, and he created logic, and they do not apply to him.

Yea and once you leave our realm of logic nothing can be proven or argued about apart from stating that we don't know anything about it. To claim otherwise is futile.

> We don't deny logic. If you study Islam, logic is one of the 3 methods to arrive at truth. The other two are observations (not dissimilar from experimental science) and the final is truthfully relayed news (الخبر الصادق). We take all of those into consideration when studying our reality.

But you denied logic. You said when talking about god and his rules we can't apply our logic because he operates outside of it. This is a very dangerous method in order to make some people be the bearers of truth and any other individual must not assume he can independently verify any of it. It is a method to create a power structure.
Yeah, like you I'm just challenging the claim that they contributed to the Internet. OP claimed some credit for USENET, and I said "OK, then what RFCs did they contribute to?"

I never really thought about PLATO being described in an RFC. But "the internet" is: TCP, SMTP, DNS, SNMP, Telnet, FTP, BGP, etc. etc.

"Intellectual influence" ? Sure, ok, but usually that would show up as citations in other publications.
Not all books are experience worthy, some are even frustrating to read cover to cover.
>So the sooner she gets back into a full-time job the better.

OTOH, careful with this. Your wife has already endured her entire upbringing of people telling her that her worth is tied to her job, and you may be the only chance to encourage her to stay home with the kids, should she want this. If you fail to signal your assent to this arrangement, she is plenty likely to feel trapped needing to go back to work when she wants to be home with babies and young children.

Homogeneous societies may have different rates of crime or at least different issues. For example in the US there is historic and systemic racism that affects the incarceration issue. Which isn't to say profiteering from incarceration is the answer. Rather that things which work in more cohesive societies may not directly transfer to more heterogeneous ones.
There's source code on GitHub for a simple version of this tech (without multiplayer or smooth and fast streaming): https://GitHub.com/crisdosyago/BrowserBox

And a closed source version that has multiplayer, audio and much faster streaming (than the GitHub version) that uses webrtc.

> The police don't know who that man was, or why he was on property that didn't belong to him. They're not mind readers

I see the disadvantage people without convictions have when it comes to acquiring licenses as functionally equivalent to the poor not having the capital to start a business.

Labelling one "discrimination" and not the other is, to be polite, silly.

Some people would call the fact that a poor person can't muster the resources for entrepreneurial self-actualization discrimination. Some people wouldn't.

In this case, I would lean on the wisdom of my long-departed grandfather: "Life is unfair, deal with it."

Life is unfair, sometimes it is unfair in a direction you're not accustomed.

If it's just to water the lawn, I don't know that you need to boil it? How well a dehumidifier will work is going to depend on your local humidity of course, which varies a lot in socal. Try to get some shade for the dehumidifier to work in, too.

A well might work, depending on where your water table is, but you probably need a drilling permit, and you may need other approvals too, water in California is a complex issue.

I'm anti-bitcoin, but bitcoin/etc turns electricity and gpus/asics into money, and money pays for water, so see if that makes more sense than a dehumidifier (although variations in price mean you might want to switch between things depending on price and workfactors, etc)
Level headed and wise comment.
Concrete example: I had someone reaching out to me, quite a bit, wanting to interact. On the other hand, whenever we interacted, I had the distinct impression they didn't like me. It was not a person I knew well. I'm limiting a lot of personal information from the story, but that's a fair summary.

I asked GPT-3 for advice for how to interpret that person's behavior (with more context).

Seems like stupid advice but it’s helped me through books I would otherwise have dropped permanently.
