Absolutely, Sun is also responsible for oil and natural gas if you stretch the horizon longer. Perhaps the only source of energy we have not capture from the Sun is nuclear, which may have been a result of supernova explosions. This pedantry aside, Germany needs better energy policy that is grounded in fundamental resource economics, not driven by ideology/potitical will, but with a stern look at their national energy security (or lack there of) and secure it by the means that's necessary.

Cost of energy has multitude of secondary effects on GDP and food security; the importance of which cannot be understated.

Here's the IndexNow standard that CloudFlare Crawler Hints is using:

https://www.indexnow.org/

The idea is that you can push a notification to a search engine when content changes instead of waiting for the crawler to notice.

https://<searchengine>/indexnow?url=url-changed&key=your-key

You can also submit more than one URL with a POST.

You can notify Bing at https://www.bing.com/indexnow?url=url-changed&key=your-key

If you notify the IndexNow API endpoint it notifies Bing plus other search engines on your behalf:

https://api.indexnow.org/indexnow?url=url-changed&key=your-k...

This announcement is about how CloudFlare can now do this automatically for sites it hosts.

Another extremely dystopian reality we live with daily and rarely stop to question.

When the 13th Amendment was proposed, one of the big compromises the South fought for was the "except as punishment for crime" clause. And, of course, immediately after it was passed there was a big cultural shift in racist stereotypes of Black men from being effeminate and cowardly to being big scary criminals. Basically just a rush to recreate the slavery apparatus by imprisoning Black people
I've been wondering the same things for the past decade. It seems like it's very hard to get your gene into the right place so that it will be expressed at the right time, with enough consistency to make a stable cell line.

Also, it seems rare to find just one gene that encodes a property or compound. Usually you need several genes to form a pathway from a common precursor chemical to your target result. That pathway will be leaky, and it may take resources away from other important chemicals that the plant's lifecycle relies on.

It sounds expensive and time consuming - plants take a long time to compile, and you can forget about reproducible builds. Plus, once you have your GMO, you'll be expected to take care not to release it into the wild, and in today's world, a decent chunk of people will oppose your product because of their personal beliefs.

You seem like you’re all over the place, a Jack of all Trades.

Specifically you’re counting the number of U’s in your rack as well as LOC.

LOC isn’t generally seen as a great metric. But let’s assume some people like it. 20K over 8 years averages to 100 lines a day. That’s fine, I guess. But I read this as not you having written 20K lines but the whole company?

I’ve been told by coworkers that £60K is considered a decent salary in the UK outside of FANG, and even in FANG, salaries are 30-40% lower than in SV, not factoring in RSU’s and bonus.

Maybe you aren’t underpaid at all, the size of the company (and the value they provide) justifies that salary.
I didnt say it was the sole reason. Contributed to != sole cause

Well, this is still very hypothetical (and probably unlikely near-term). But certainly it will get interesting when standard smartphones get capabilities that some countries have banned in standalone devices.

At an organizational rather than a country level you already have a situation where everyone has a camera in their pocket. At a lot of companies, it used to be a big deal to bring a camera into a building involving security passes etc.

From looking at a different forum on the submitted link https://forum.odroid.com/viewforum.php?f=194 it seems that mainline support for the Go Advance is still a work in progress, and quite a bit of stuff is not working properly. Once that's addressed however a pmOS build for that could be feasible. pmOS has a wiki page on the Odroid N2+ SBC, but this handheld comes with changes that might make it harder to support.

> note that it can fit known data but isn't currently testable.

But the thing is, theories about the beginning of the universe will never be testable, they aren't just not currently testable.

So, if your theory has no novel predictions about the future, but it adds extra parameters to obtain a different prediction about a past which exists beyond what can be measured, then you're wasting your time creating this theory, and wasting reviewers' and readers' time publishing it; and you're wasting money researching it.

This is what Sabine usually writes and complains about - research money being spent on research that is at best unlikely to bear any fruit, and at worst navel-gazing, especially when there are very real problems in physics that are not receiving significant research.

This is why she complains about people researching the beginning of the universe, or black hole entropy, or grand unified theories, or the hierarchy "problem", or looking for supersimmetry or for WIMPs in ever larger particle accelerators.

Instead, she wishes more people were researching the measurement problem, non-linearity in quantum mechanics, high-energy physics through radio-telescopes instead of particle accelerators, to name a few things.

Now, I don't know anywhere near enough to say that she is right, but I do believe she is not trivially wrong, like you seem to be suggesting.

That’s pretty normal for prison culture worldwide. US prisons are far less inhumane than, say, France.
We need a method for allocation of scarce resources. If it’s not money, it’s either a random lottery, or it’s based on some allocation function like a performance assessment.

I would not expect to see allocation of government funded admission slots to top private colleges based [solely] on performance-based assessments, because it’s too much equality and not enough equity.

That’s not to say it wouldn’t be a brilliant idea to let kids earn free slots into college. The last time we did it though, they had to earn those slots in Vietnam.
> I think government examples are relevant. Governments can haul you into court for fraud, for one thing. And they typically try to define things based on widespread understanding.

I never said that the OSI's definition of "open source" wasn't widely held. My argument is that it isn't the only widely-held definition. And I still don't find the government's use of the OSI definition to be particularly relevant - in terms of there being multiple widely-used definitions. It is just an example of one of them.

> in my experience many of the people who misuse the term "open source software" (OSS) to identify something that is NOT OSS are expressly trying to deceive

It has been my experience that most people who use the term "open source" to refer to source-available software are not trying to deceive anyone (although, I am aware of some examples where that has happened). They just haven't dealt with the legal details, and are mostly unaware that a different large group of people attach a lot more meaning to the term than they do.
Incredible. Almost all of the money saved could be either returned to the taxpayer, or used to build houses for the poor on the 127 prison sites.
> he then turns around and just claims religion can give you the correct answer which clearly it can't because there are different religions

His point is that experimental science is not in the domain of answering "why" in that sense. It's a metaphysical problem outside the realm of science. The question of finding which religion is true is a separate issue. You don't want to fall in the genetic fallacy when making such an argument.

> Well I think we're getting closer and closer to understand how the brain works.

No one is saying we shouldn't work on it. But this sounds like the "science of the gaps" argument that atheists make fun of theists for using when the former claim "God of the gaps" fallacy.

> Why can't we derive morals from logical scientific arguments?

Show me how. He talks about how different cultures agree that certain things are acceptable and others aren't. And he gave the example of harming or sacrificing children. If we agreed tomorrow that such practice is ok, in a secular society there is nothing prohibiting such action.

In Islam, we have something called the Fitrah, a natural disposition to certain things, such as acting "good" (we need a benchmark for that obviously, but in a Judeo-Christian Western world, it's quite obvious), or the innate belief in a Creator. This falls under that, and animals also have instincts.

I think you're missing the forest for the trees. He states the argument at the beginning, and then gives examples. You don't have to agree with each and every example, but the point stands.

Experimental science cannot answer things beyond what it is designed to do.
Why? Because it describes a technical solution to a problem, instead of complaining/rationalising.

No idea about the Czech, but that's exactly what's happening in Norway. Due to trade agreements with the EU, we can not discriminate between national and EU customers when selling electricity. To be completely accurate, we aren't selling on a German exchange, we're selling on local ones, but those local exchanges are experiencing price pressure from EU customers due to export capacity recently being increased due to the completion of several new power cables to the EU and UK.
Problem is, is there are no "US" folks - we're not a homogeneous population and different areas have vastly different priorities and needs, while federal overreach continually undermines state autonomy.

Cynically, this can be the point.

When building anything at all becomes prohibitively hard, most things don't get built, and the environment remains unchanged, that is, presented.

Only things absence of which causes a real, strong, unceasing pain can withstand the process and finally get built, at much larger expense and at a smaller scale than planned initially.

And now you come and say "hey sorry but we need more nuclear reactors"? Sure. Much better to go to countries which are barely respecting human rights, bow and buy their fuel and gas, because finally who cares, we don't see what they do in their countries.

"you won't get funding if you go around saying there's no such thing as a labor shortage in a market economy, even though this is entry level economic"

The Economics 101 answer is clearly wrong or at least incomplete in this case. Think about it this way: if people's wages increase in real terms by definition this means they can buy more with their wages. Producing stuff requires, amongst other things, workers. Suppose we're in a situation like the current one where unemployment is low and businesses across all sectors cannot find enough workers to keep up with consumer demand. What happens if they all try and solve this by increasing wages across the board? Well, their workers have more money to spend so this increases consumer demand even more - and remember, the problem we were trying to solve was that this was already too high compared to supply. What it doesn't do much for is the supply of workers, since there's not some big pool of potential workers who could be working but aren't. It's not going to encourage people to work longer hours either since when would they have time to spend the money? Basically, it makes the whole problem worse, and that's why the Fed and central banks around the world are freaking out right now.
I heard that raw foods contain the very enzymes that our body uses to digest them. Like how an apple decays on its own over time. Those enzymes get destroyed during cooking so your body has to use its existing enzymes. Not sure if this is accurate information, so I'm mentioning it in case someone knows more about this subject.
I wrote a parallel communicating thread actor model in Java that doesn't use mutuexes. I am yet to prove it is waitfree but it doesn't block, it always tries to move towards forward progress.

I wrote a model checker in Python and it's slow (it's not finished yet!) as it tests every possible interleaving of the threads. (I test some interleavings I was worried about explicitly with manual specifications) I've run it a lot but there's the possibility there is a rare bug. But my model checker needs parallelising to run in reasonable time to prove the algorithm correct. So I need to parallelise my parallel algorithm checker.

It's kind of based on https://www.cs.technion.ac.il/~erez/Papers/wfquque-ppopp.pdf in terms of work stealing (or helping)

Every thread can communicate with every other thread and I load balance the pool with a simple atomic counter and modulo.

https://github.com/samsquire/multiversion-concurrency-contro...

For 100 parallel threads on a hexacore I get 1.75-2.3 million communication events a second (depending on CPU load, when I'm running the model checker, I get around ~1.5 million requests a second) on an Intel Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10710U CPU @ 1.10GHz, 1608 Mhz, 6 Core(s), 12 Logical Processor(s). Yes it's an Intel NUC. Communication costs 500 nanoseconds. I plan to implement bidirectional communication so threads swap messages with each other, for double the throughput. The plan is that threads/actors have multiple event streams or sources of work, so they always have work to do even if there is contention.

I don't know if it is fast or slow, as I haven't benchmarked golang channels, erlang actors or akka or any other actor framework but I do wonder what is the raw performance of a multithreaded actor model.

It feels as if there's a force (?) that we're not yet recognizing. Else, it's a crazy infinite loop.

Not that I'm saying this is true (just an example), but is the Big Bang simply (?) the introduction of time into the then time-less universe? It just doesn't make sense to say "The universe started with the Big Bang" when what that was prior was the universe but in a different form (or so we guess).

So it seems that something else had to be introduced to change the nature of the old universe into the new universe. Else the "start" is more like a "transformation" and even that opens a ton of questions.

My head hurts.
Yeah...

Back in the day, as another comment mentioned, the PPro had a 'chiplet' style configuration where The CPU and Cache were on the same chip but separate dies. The problem with this was the CPU and Cache had to be bonded to the chip first, then tested, and if either was bad, game over. Additionally, at the time die size was at more of a premium, in the case of a PPro, 256Kb of cache was close-ish to 2/3 the size of the CPU die. [0]

The P2, Katmai P3, and the Athlon 'Classic' (Pluto/Orion) used offboard cache; This was far better from a yield standpoint (I'm assuming the cache chips could either be tested before install, or were easier to rework) but limited their speed.

It's crazy to think that the Katmai P3 itself had around 9.5 Million Transistors, but the 512Kb of cache was another 25 Million on it's own!

Trucking:

The big ones are FedEx and UPS, who of course dominate small package delivery.

For big loads, the big players are XPO Logistics and J. B. Hunt. Everybody else is considerably smaller. Full-truckload shipping has distance cost and is simpler than package delivery, so the network effects are not as strong and there's room for local and regional players.
