I've been developing an ASP.Net Core Web Api on Linux for the last few months with the dotnet CLI and I haven't run into any cross platform issues yet.

I've used both VSCode and Rider and I think both provide an enjoyable development experience.

Aside from VS only running on Windows, it doesn't feel like a second class experience at all to me.
I've been spending a lot of time writing web apps with ASP.NET Core on my Mac with Rider this summer. It has generally been an excellent experience, with one minor caveat.

Debugging ASP.NET integration tests has worked far better on Rider than it does on my VS2022 instance on Windows - where I have to manually trigger the debugger within the test itself. On Rider it worked as expected from the get-go.

You may run into some issues if your project depends on private NuGet feeds, primarily hosted by Azure DevOps. Rider fails to authenticate with ADO no matter what I do, so I had to fall back on manually installing those packages with the dotnet utility.

> “The horrors of EasyWriter were such that I decided to write my own word processor to get the book done.”

LOL. A true geek. Just yesterday I was updating my resume, decided to use Markdown and was less than impressed with the various templates and scripts out there. So of course I spent the next couple hours writing up a conversion script to automatically add <sections>'s to the bog standard Markdown-to-HTML pandoc output so I'd have better handles to use to format the doc with css grid (without having to insert all that HTML by hand.)

[Insert related XKCD here.]

<rant>While I'm here... Markdown is the absolute worst POS "standard" ever created. I truly despise it. I do, however, love Typora.io because it's a beautiful, simple rich text editor. But the insanity of using a WYSIWYG editor to output a piece of crap text document with a barely parsable syntax, which I then have to convert and clean up using command line tools to get back to a formatted document is truly fucking moronic.

Why haven't we just solved this problem? We can copy and paste custom colored emojis and Klingon characters between apps and platforms without issues now, but bold, italic, bullets and font sizes are somehow beyond human kind's ability to find an answer? Really? It's just batshit insane. <\rant>

The problem is that other countries are already subsidising their demand. If the UK doesn't follow suit, prices will quickly rise beyond consumers' abilities to pay. But if everyone uses this logic, prices will just keep spiralling out of control with no end.

I guess the UK does have some domestic gas production, so could ban exports of that and institute price controls severe rationing.

> I'm going to assume this refers to the rational actor assumption?

Yes. And:

* More is better

* Demand curves are smooth

* Demand curves are deterministic

* Everything happens on the margin

* Information is free

* Ethics does not influence behaviour.

* Nature allows steady states

That are the flawed assumptions just off of the top of my head.

If you spend years studying economics (like I did) then some these assumptions get questioned some of the time. But they all break down, regularly.

The micro economic models work in snapshots, but the interesting part is in the breakdown.

The models are useful when they are not very interesting.
I agree that hallucinogens have therapeutic promise. Leary (and John Lilly, and others) was forward thinking in this respect. But they can be dangerous if misused, with the potential to cause chronic psychotic disorders, for example. I am hesitant to mention Charles Manson, but what if the wrong influence is there when your mind is so wide open?

Leary didn't say, "Due to regressive laws in the U.S., which I respect but we need to change, I cannot pursue my double-blind clinical trials of LSD-25 for treatment of depression in America. I have therefore moved my research to Mexico." Leary was infamous for popularizing LSD, and was part of the problem for authority's long road to accept it. I know sometimes civil disobedience is in order, but we are not talking about sarsaparilla root here.

He said (paraphrased), "People over 40 want to put me behind bars for helping people discover the cosmic candles of the night sky on the Mexican beaches...the fair-haired elven princess in the tree house...the verdant fields... Why are the mean rational adults picking on me?" which are outside of the generally accepted principles for the treatment of mental illness, I would think. It's way beyond therapeutic use and into snake oil territory when advertised as an aphrodisiac and spiritual guide. Yoga and Buddhist meditation also have therapeutic benefits and very safe--why not use those until (and after) the clinical trials of LSD are completed?
>then there should be some kind of proof that the beginning of the universe is un-knowledgeable

Sabine literally addresses this in the piece:

>"As I said earlier, you can always do this, because for any evolution law there will be some initial state that will give you the right prediction for today. The problem is that this makes a simple explanation more complicated, so these theories are not scientifically justifiable. They don’t improve the explanatory power of the standard cosmological model. Another way to put it is that all those complicated ideas for how the universe began are unnecessary to explain what we observe. It’s actually worse. Because you might think we just have to wait for better observations and then maybe we’ll see that the current cosmological model is no longer the simplest explanation. But if there was an earlier phase of the universe that was indeed more complicated than the simple initial state that we use today, we couldn’t use the scientific method to decide whether it’s correct or not. The scientific method as we know it just doesn’t cover this case. Science fails!"

There are countless of competing models you can invent that explain the beginning of the universe and everything you see, provided you make them sufficiently complex. The problem is, that's not science.

It's like saying: the standard model explains everything but the beginning. Let's say God caused the universe and then he went away. Technically that's an explanation, it doesn't violate physics as we know it, but it's not scientific. And given that we can't run repeated experiments on the early universe because we only got one, assuming the standard model explains everything but the early universe implies it is out of the reach of science.

Fiction side here: this is actually a question in flux. It used to be that you could expect serious developmental edits from an editor and also your agent on top of multiple copy editing rounds. However the recent cuts in labor has limited how much editors can read or acquire, which then affects how many books agents can represent and then forcibly raises the bar for the quality of submitted manuscripts. It’s like the post doc problem (where phd graduates are pressured to take more and more extreme measures to be qualified for a professorship position and therefore do significant work for exceptionally little or no gain).
Ultimately everything that you can't verify comes down to beliefs which is many things for the common person. But all disciplines aren't equal in this domain. Science began being formalized with the scientific process, it was founded upon principles of rigorous verification. Religion was founded, generally, by a human or humans trying to "verify" the gods' wishes by very abstract and obtuse senses such as 'feelings'. Science may start with feelings or certain intuitions about what should be but then it has to be ran through a proper process that is repeatable and proven no matter how the scientist feels.

The influence of Neovim on Vim development
Not really. Non-Abrahamic religions like Hinduism, Buddhism, etc. have nothing to do with faith or beliefs.
Both Hinduism and Buddhism explicitly allows for atheistic sects within the religion.
The religions are mostly concerned with philosophies of life and the nature of reality than worship of Gods based on belief and faith.

This is NOT based on controlled studies:

>>Newly available data from the Household Pulse Survey—an experimental Census Bureau product launched at the start of the pandemic—provide the first large-scale, population-level detail on the prevalence of long COVID.2 Starting with the survey's June 2022 wave, respondents who report having had a diagnosed case of COVID are asked,

>>"Did you have any symptoms lasting 3 months or longer that you did not have prior to having coronavirus or COVID-19?"

We have no idea if it was COVID that was responsible for these symptoms (the most common of which is anxiety) or a response to COVID, like stress, or two weeks isolation after diagnosis, or the pandemic-related restrictions on social interaction.

The best evidence available suggests most cases of "long COVID" are misattribution:

Aspire’s new plant will reportedly produce 9,000 metric tons of crickets every year for human and pet consumption. That’s about two billion insects to be distributed annually across Canada and throughout the United States. Aspire also reports that it already has orders for the next two years … showcases four first-of-a-kind newly developed technologies; an automated storage retrieval system (ASRS), a new type of HVAC system, a 5G IoT network and an AI solution that’s been recognized by UNESCO.

I think, but cannot verify right now, they intended it to be a static assignment, tied to you. Initially a geographic prefix model. Yes, over time, it would decay as people move. But for rural poor, dalit, it would become a de facto routable identity. Analogous to voter ID maybe (I am told that there was a big push on voting rights for the agrarian poor)
Those all seem like fiercely price-competitive markets, with the exception of wired comms where there isn’t competition in regions which have been divided up between one provider or the other.

Also, they are all highly regulated industries, so it’s hard to disentangle whether any observed issues are due to market failure or regulatory failure.

Hi, am I being obstinate for thinking "Sorry you ran into that issue" is a bit strangely worded?
Yeah as the other commenter notes, book discovery is a difficult problem that hasn't shared in the gains made in algorithmic recommendation for other forms of media. If you think about it makes a lot of sense...literature has high cost of consumption (in terms of time spent), preferences are incredibly subjective, non-transitive to a degree not seen in music/film/tv. Your best way is the "old fashioned" approach of becoming familiar with reviewers and others who share your taste.

In terms of boosting already existing authors who you enjoy, unfortunately sales are still king. Buying a bunch of copies of their book within 18 months of it's release (including in ebook or audiobook format!) is basically the strongest signal that you can send to get them additional visibility and promotion. Some publishers take softer metrics (like social media engagement, tour/signing turnout, etc) into account, but again, mostly as a proxy for what sales might look like.

That means you have inverter drive. Also nice because they don’t have a capacitor that eventually fails and won’t dim your lights when it turns on. Also great at reducing demand charges if your electric utility bills that way.

But heat pumps can run as an on or off only system. Depends on what you install.

If demand for that SKU is higher than for the 12 core SKU and margin justifies it, then yes. It happens with every vendor, specially when node been out for some time - yields are much better and there aren't this many down-binned chips to handle the demand.

You're wrong in saying that Open Source is leading to everything becoming a Subscription or a Service that will cost you. That's a separate commercial issue for software companies to decide upon for themselves. Microsoft, for example, have progressed along the line: Retail Sales direct to Consumers, Software Bundled with Hardware, Software as Subscription Service.

Open Source means that you can program/compile/produce that software yourself. And that means you are free ("libre") to obtain that software for free ("without cost").

You are correct, more or less, in saying that developers today have less opportunity to earn a living doing programming. But this is merely the constant trend of cottage-industries eventually giving way to large-scale industries. The single independent programmer eventually becomes one of a team, be that a commercial team or an Open Source team, or even both.

Most Open Source developers are engaged in the Programming Industry.

> People don't realize, that every new savings in an economy have a debt counterpart in the same amount...

This is the model macroeconomists use, but they've repurposed the word "savings" to something that isn't a particularly good idea.

Someone who has $1,000 & invests it into - say - buying a solar panel doesn't have any savings but has made their future more comfortable through investment but has no savings. If they instead put the money into savings the evidence I've seen is it will go to some profligate spender who will likely make the future worse for everyone (like a money-losing Uber or a wormongering government).

This is why macroeconomics can reasonably be compared to astrology - the words have so little connection to what people understand that they are useless. People make the mistake of thinking savings are desirable, not understanding that formal language has separated the idea of savings (accounting identities) and investment (making life better).
Text is hard to follow. And other articles of same author leave me with little interest to invest more time. E.g.:

My brother in law put in a wood burner in Minnesota. He just volunteers to process downed trees on private property within 50 miles. He also cuts down trees basically for free, and takes any municipality-cleared trees from, say, highways. The city just knows to drop them off, but that's a small town thing.

I think he stocks 15 chord for winter, and usually cuts about 40 chord in a few days with a mechanical splitter. He's got several years worth of timber and logs drying on his property. So the hard part is building the timber supply, letting it dry. I think it's fairly easy with the right equipment to build your fuel supply from that.

You don't get too much colder than MN, so I'd see what kind of land it would take to harvest 30-ish chord per year if you wanted to grow yourself.
I think you mean "privy to."
I can’t answer your question, but I’m assuming Maine, with its big forestry sector, produces a lot of relatively inexpensive wood pellets which are made from mill byproducts.
