I'm curious about this but the article doesn't really go into any depth summarizing things.

For example:

> Grass-fed beef seems like the environmentally-friendly option. Hormone-free chickens do too. Yet intensive livestock farming in feedlots often has a lower environmental cost, despite a higher price when it comes to animal welfare.

I'm not an expert in this space, but I do know that terms like "organic", "grass fed", "free range", and others can have wildly different meanings depending on the farm and how they're regulated. For example, "free range" doesn't necessarily mean that chickens are able to walk around a farm; it just means that there is "access" to an outdoor space. The links I clicked on in that article didn't seem to really account for any of this and set up a comparison. The one about feed seems to compare the environmental impact of mass feeding with "organic" feed compared to industrial feed. But that's not applicable to my situation.
Pelikan Cache and Momento
Just a reminder: the underlying issue is really 'how sustainable is the current global human population under business-as-usual practices'?

It's clear a plant-based diet will reduce the land area, water, and fertilizer needed for food production - but if human population grows in response, then you simply end up back where you started - but with the plant production going to feed humans instead of livestock.

There's also the problem of food distribution - many countries rely heavily on imports to meet basic food needs, and the producing countries are typically running high-impact agriculture - double-cropping high-efficiency strains soy, corn, wheat, potato, etc. crops using vast amounts of fertilizers and water (essentially the 'Green Revolution' approach). Abandoning high-intensity agriculture (going back to pre-industrial methods like crop rotation) would cut food production in half at least, leading to global famines. Hence, pushing towards regional independence on basic food production is pretty important, given the uncertain future of climate impacts on agricultural production.

A final thing to keep in mind: methane from animals and wetlands is quite different from methane from fossil fuel production, as the latter represents a net transfer of carbon from stable geological deposits to the atmosphere, while the former represents the cycling of atmospheric carbon (CO2) into plant matter, and while those carbon atoms may be burped out by cattle as methane (CH4), they end up oxidized back to CO2 within 10-20 years in the atmosphere. Regardless, cutting the global cattle population by 80-90% makes a lot of sense (this is about what pre-industrial popuations were like). Meat would then be quite expensive, a luxury item, which also makes sense.

I think that was the point of a recent article - Niedermayer, I think - most of the driving I do is commuting, and I don't really need more than the 150 mile range that 42 kWh pack gives you...

The flip side is the smallest Tesla is 3700 lbs or so, vs i3 is a hair under 3000

Technologies evolve, though, so I feel like the next (potential) revolution is to use a light CFRP chassis like the i3 w/ next gen batteries.
Yeah! exactly.

If by some weird accident of history the research wasn't the actual cause of the virus-- it's just an accident. The problem was that we setup a situation where if it wasn't human originated, it's only a fluke.

Yup, I switched to Bitwarden and self host my own instance of it using that container. It works great. I was previously using Keepass (and later keepassxc), but it became a hassle to keep the database file in sync between all of my devices (I lost passwords at times as a result). Also the browser extension didn't work that well, nor did it have as nice of Android integration as Bitwarden.

Self hosted was a nice middle ground. No one else has a copy of my password database, and it's always in sync between devices. Stick nginx as a proxy in front of it for https and easy let's encrypt certificate management. The downside is that Keepass by default allowed me to have copies in multiple locations. Bitwarden is only on the server, but since the database is encrypted it's easy enough to have regularly scheduled backups of it. It just is an added step to find another docker host for it if my home server goes down, during which time I may not have access to my passwords.

> SMS is not secure and a SIM-swap away from someone being able to make purchases in your name.

as in physically getting hold of a SIM card and putting it into another phone? That's what SIM PIN codes are supposed to protect against, but nobody uses them anymore because they are disabled by default now and set to 0000. But you can still do it, every SIM has a PIN and PUK codes.

But SMS isn't 100% secure for different reasons though.
To be fair thata a reasonable approach if the database is at its monolithic scaling limit in CPU but not IO, while the clients can scale horizontally to more machines.

Unlikely in practice, though.

> It's about "loving what you do" unthinking mantra. Which I think the whole idea is a load of crap.

Which is not the mantra I was intending to evoke.

My only point is that starting a business is something that consumes your entire life. You will eat, drink, and live the business 24/7 for a very long time -- if what you're doing isn't something that you inherently derive enjoyment from, it will make your life very unpleasant and reduce your ability to make it succeed.

This is very different from some sort of bland "do what you love" thing. This is recognizing the human truth of what starting a business entails.
As folks talk about migrating, largely to yet another (insert another startup-themed password manager), I can't help but wonder.

Which has taken more time? Learning how to use gopass and a yubikey, or migrating password services every few years and paying hundreds for arbitrarily pay-walled features?

Edit: idk, maybe there's some UX aspects of the password sharing features that are more important to other folks, otherwise, the diy option is not that hard, or a UX sacrifice.
I used to do this. I finally had to switch off of it because the Syncthing Android experience is so bad (necessarily, because Android is bad).

I had many instances of not noticing Android had killed the Syncthing backend again despite being explicitly told not to, and then I had two out-of-sync password databases and would have to go merge them again.

I'm still bitter about it, because Syncthing as a syncing layer is so much more elegant than everyone implementing their own server and sync protocol.

Your first two statements are just wrong, shockingly so after over 2 years where you could have educated yourself and decided not to.

Your last statement is definitely something we need to look into, but I think the development delays are probably minimal (speaking as a parent of a kid that wore masks at a critical age), but I think the social isolation was far more significant.

IPFS was around before people started talking about “web3”.

I see it as part of increasing resiliency and data locality. A key characteristic is that the cost for data storage is shifted to the people who care about preserving that data.

So a good example is distributing Linux distro packages.

Apparently, cpu/mem can be tuned.
Without digging into any math myself, I find it curious that it's 1/12th longer. That specific ratio, 1/12th, is also the basis for the Equal Temperament system for tuning Western musical instruments ("12-tone Equal Temperament, specifically), which also represents a harmonic series.

Second nobody challenges Tobi anymore since they are chameleons who can change colours to match whatever the boss wants. That means his mistakes go unchecked.

Yes, Haskell has green threads/co-routines.

Racket /also/ has `thread` which is a co-routine but afaik you cannot pass the co-routine off to another native thread and there are certain constraints passing data between different threads, similar to transferring ownership.

This makes me very glad that I switched my self-hosted password manager from Bitwarden to Vaultwarden. It implements the Bitwarden Server API so I can still use the same client applications.

I strongly suspect that this new VC-funded Bitwarden will eventually close off their applications API and client applications, but with an open-source server API provided by Vaultwarden it should be possible to create new, open-source clients, too.
That’s a false dichotomy.

Tolerance of something you don’t like is a choice. It’s a particularly meaningful choice when you are restraining the urge to act for the sake of downstream consequences and future generations.

Note that I’m not suggesting to turn a blind eye either.
A clutch-kick can dump more torque into the wheels than the motor could possibly produce.

Though a clutch-kick in an ICE operates based on the inertia of the rotating engine. I wonder how much inertia an electric motor has and if a clutch-kick would even be as effective.

I trust this over Bitwarden or Lastpass since you have to trust those services with your data (and I don't).

My strategy is using KeePass and keeping multiple copies of the database in various cloud providers in case my local copy is lost/corrupted.

Fake meat is already a clearly superior replacement for more dubious meat dishes like "breakfast sausage. Though there is an irony for the companies making the best fake meat: It's an off-ramp from meat. I find I eat less meat, real or fake. Maybe that's because fake meat does a good job satisfying a craving. I'm much more selective: Bison instead of beef burgers, salmon instead of chicken. You don't have to eliminate meat to get lots of environmental and health upside if you change the way people think of meat as part of their diet.

Cheap meat was a quality-of-life goal for many governments, pushed by the meat industry. That went way out of balance and negatively affects health and the environment. If tasty and nutritious fake meat gets down to the price of good quality burger meat, it will be a tipping point with many benefits.

> no reason to assume exponential type improvements

Did we read the same article? This was a test. The full-scale version “would produce oxygen at a rate equivalent to several hundred trees” with close to an order of magnitude more efficiency “because a bigger machine can run at lower pressures, saving energy on compression.” There are better reasons to expect exponential improvements than not.
I don’t have a great way to prove this, because we’re arguing about a hypothetical, but I think you’re wrong.

Makes sense. So much of the work around CERN already happens independent of whether the collider is running or not, so skipping a rough season seems like the sensible thing to do (even from a purely inward facing cost/benefit standpoint).

It's a shame that the timing just had to coincide with the start of LHC Run 3, though. They only managed to generate around 5-6 months of data after 3 years of upgrades. I imagine that should still be enough to keep the scientists busy this Winter, though.
The CPU and RAM costs are all about figuring out how to pay people (and charge them) algorithmically. I remember private trackers that had seeding and uptime requirements (enforced by people) 20 years ago.
The company is providing a service of vault hosting around the free software they maintain. Hosting and maintenance has many costs that need to be covered somehow, and we want them to improve the service. The hosting costs of individual users with a free though generous account is supplemented by paying companies and governments. Users are not locked in, as they can easily download their vaults and move to another solution or self host it themselves. Some free password managers such as KeypassXC require users to properly manage backups or host their vault somehow. This is too complex for most users and where Bitwarden fits well. Of course the company could go astray, but so far so good.
One thing I have learned is to never say "This should work". If it doesn't work it shouldn't work.
