Just for a fun comparison.

The original NeXT computer: 25MHz Motorola 68030 plus copro, 8MB RAM, 256MB storage, 300W power usage, $15k in 2021 dollars, weighed a lot

The Apple Watch Series 7: 1800MHz t8301 CPU (but scales up and down), 1GB RAM, 32GB storage, 50-100 mW (I think?), $399, weighs 35g or so

What a difference 33 years makes!
36% larger radius than Earth means ~2.5x more volume. If it has a similar density to Earth 2.5g would probably stretch the definition of habitable for humans. This doesn't rule out habitation by other life, of course.

Cool that we're finding interesting planets though! An actually human-habitable planet would, I think, have a significant cultural impact here on Earth.

> Other languages don't have this problem because there's only a single widely-used implementation.

Not true for c/c++ (clang+clang/osx, gcc, msvc, icc - ed: see also stdlib, libc), Java (fewer now, but still many implantations of compiler and vm), Javascript, scheme, standard ml...

Arguably it's not even true for Python. Ruby has many implantations, but my impression is that mruby and jruby are mostly insignificant wrt the average ruby programmer. I would say pypy sees more real-world usage, maybe?
Last year the world used seven hundred million tons of hydrogen, almost all produced from natural gas.

In the future the world will use many, many times more, on top of all current uses producing steel, ammonia, and even methane, liquifying for aviation, and pushing underground to produce power from later.

The authors have no crystal ball. But need for lots of hydrogen is an easy call, and motivates better ways to produce it. Once produced, it will be used according to the needs of those producing it. The authors' speculations on such use do not bear on the value of the work.

and there are an awful lot of people, even if it is free or paid for by a great health insurance plan that ALSO don't go to the doctor when they should - thats just human nature

and on the other hand, lots of people running up ten's of thousands of dollars in unnecessary tests because they are hypochondriacs and run to the doctor every time they have a sniffle and demand every treatment and test under the sun.

Depends on what you define as “very cold”. Comparatively few people live in climates where you consistently have extended periods where the average temperature drops below zero. And there are ways to work with that. For example what’s in German called “Eisspeicherheizung” (ice storage heating). It cleverly uses the crystalization energy of water [1]. You basically bury a few tons of water and use it as a buffer. You drive a heat pump that extracts energy from the water and on the other side, you run a collector circuit that collects solar energy and heat from the air.

Effectively, every time the temperature raises above 0 degrees, you fill up your buffer.

The size of the buffer is designed so that at the end of the heating period, most water has been turned to ice. And now you also have free cooling for the summer.

This system can cover periods where the outside temperature drops below zero without loss of efficiency.

[1] freezing a liter of water at 0 degrees requires an equivalent energy to heating a liter by 80 degrees Celsius.
Of course, timestamp is the biggest offender of recreatable (deterministic) build.

I suspect what happens to a lot of bootstrapped SaaS companies as they grow is the founder(s) have to take on the CxO roles and then aren't in the trenches doing the actual work. Those roles don't sound fun to me. I wonder if the fun part is the bootstrapping to where VC come knocking on the door? If that is the case then taking on VC might work to take some money off the table but the other option of selling the entire business off could work too.

Those sound like pretty routine credit card declines, to protect your card from unauthorized activity. When I was with Citi, resolving them was a simple matter of calling their telephone number, and it would take a few minutes at most. I since switched to a couple of other banks and they both have similar procedures in place.

The problem described in the Twitter thread is on another level entirely. As another commenter here pointed out, it sounds more like that one failed a KYC review of some kind.
If you could read the previous comment you would notice several factors are mentioned but you are too busy confirming you bias towards a single factor to explain everything. One dimension thinking.

This article is sort of missing the point.
Rupert is inadvertently right. The desktop metaphor is done, as in finished - nobody cares. Files on a table is over. There was a point where my desktop got too messy in university and I went and turned off icons on it altogether and I never looked back. Google didn't even bother with the concept in android; files go to a magical box in the sky and you never see them, and some phones ship without a file explorer altogether. With the prevalence of OneDrive and other services, they do this on the home computer as well now too. It's the default in Office 365, probably one of the only apps a lot of people use on Windows now other than a browser. My workplace has all storage set to OneDrive by default, and I have to fight the computer to store a file locally, and the reality is that as much as I dislike it, it's invisible and you don't even notice.

Rupert also fails to comment on how most people are primarily using the browser anyway. He didn't even use the word in the article. Oh, sure, it's annoying to users that the flavors of windows change over time, but chrome hasn't changed and that's fine. It's probably more of a bother to people when facebook or youtube has a redesign every few years.

And we know this to be true because the statistics support it. Computer literacy didn't continue to drastically rise as time passed. The reality is that the medium got out of the way of the message, and nobody spends time looking at windows anymore. They don't have cute sample songs bundled with the OS anymore (how will future generations discover Mr. Scruff and his record label now??), the wallpapers kind of suck, but people don't change them anymore anyway, or anything else for that matter (you can hide the Cortana search bar but everyone I know doesn't even bother to do that). Do kids these days even know what a screensaver is? Invoking 95 like it's a peak of UX is completely missing the point. Windows, and OSX, and others, will continue to trend towards becoming invisible, like air, and will get out of the way.
It is the first thing I try to teach CS graduates: DRY ( re-usability) is not applicable in the SQL world. Trying to re-use code, as proposed in Malloy generally results in poor performing queries. Malloy also seems needlessly complex compared to highly successful tools like DBT.

One other reason that DBT is successful is the low threshold to migrate your existing codebase. It is larger than Typescript Vs JavaScript, however, it can generalky be done in a week or two.

Electric heat pumps actually don't work in very cold weather.

Sure they do, their efficiency just drops to below the point where it remains feasible (i.e. cheaper than furnace/boiler). Technology has come a long way and most of the world's population doen't seem to live in that 'very cold' weather, so I'd wager heat pumps are still the way to go. Especially ground source heat pumps thrive well enough in cold climates, just not always doable to install on existing sites.

> For example, I enjoy listening to someone speak, e.g. Greek or Spanish.

"Listening to someone speak" is not a job though. Your actual job will be for example translating some mind-numingly boring business or technical documents for 8 hours a day.

> But, there are very few options for a language person - you can be a translator/interpreter, a writer, or a teacher - none of which fit my description of a good job.

There you go. You need to look at the actual opportunities on the job market, see how much you like them, how much they pay and how likely you're to qualify for them.

> I keep hearing that you need to love what you do professionally; otherwise, you will have a bad time doing it.

We found your problem! I think this is mostly bullshit, peddled by unique people like Steve Jobs or Elon Musk [1]. It does not apply to 99% of population. For regular people, job is a source of money, so that you can have a life. Of course you will have "a bad time" doing it - a job is literally trading effort and discomfort for money. The dream that, if you only find your passion, the work will be fun and not taxing or uncomfortable, is just that - a dream that you can escape the human condition.

The most common sense advice is to find a job that you can tolerate (or even somewhat like on a good day) and that pays well. That's what our parents always say (at least the non-US parents) and it's not because they're stupid - I think it's hard-won wisdom that comes with age.

> Studio Ghibli famously managed to prevent Disney from destroying it's films when released in the US by pulling a power play (they sent a samurai sword to Harvey Weinstein... yes that Harvey with a note that just said "No cuts.").

Well the power play is more that they put a clause in their distribution contract with Disney saying they had to agree to any cuts after the botched release of their previous films and simply said no to every cuts Weinstein asked for.

Apparently, Toshiro Suzuki personally offered the replica sword to Weinstein during a Miramax meeting while yelling "Mononoke Hime, NO CUT!" because Disney didn't respect the contract while distributing Kiki Delivery Service.

The crazy thing to me about this is, most Americans simply skip medical procedures, or tests due to cost.

So American wait times aren't lower because their hospitals are better, they just server a much smaller pool of people due to so many being priced out of being healthy.

And honestly, the longer you go without doctor visits, more expensive, complicated and involved the process is.

It’s definitely counter intuitive, but 30 years of data speaks for itself (please see my other posts for citations).

Now that you have the data, you can choose.

Chose to help everyone in society including yourself, by changing your initial assumptions because of real world data. You could even just go half way, we need more data before I’m convinced but at least with the data we do have I’ll start considering the possibility.

Or you can choose to hurt people, including yourself, by holding onto your incorrect intuition. Why would you want to be this type of person? I’d love to know.

I hope one day everyone chooses to first and foremost disconfirm their biases, use more data to drive decisions, and starts actually helping create the society they say they want.
When I used to live in the USA I had two accounts at two different credit unions and they both did wire transfers.

But banking in the USA is so archaic to begin with. paper checks?

The benefit of credit unions of commercial banks is that they tend to be considerably less scummy. All of my banking horror stories from the USA come from commercial banks, and I always recommend Americans to use credit unions.
The text has errors. E.g.

> This OOP was created in 1962

No. The 1962 Simula I version was a dedicated simulation language and didn't feature inheritance or virtual methods. The features we today consider "object-oriented" were introduced with Simula 67, which was conceived as a general purpose programming language, not only a simulation language.

> the name “Simula” was gotten from two simulation programming languages, Simula 67 and Simula I

Only Simula I was dedicated to simulation; Simula 67 was a general purpose PL; Simula I was frist called "Simula"; the suffix was added later.

Anyway, the text reads as if it was generated.

They named their project, and thus this object, after the popular Belgian¹ speculoos cookie and backronymed it. I'm not sure how I feel about that. I don't dislike names with some pop culture basis, or even better, old sci-fi (given that there a more of those objects than we can dream up names for). On the other hand, naming it after a cookie seems frivolous.

An orbital period of 2.73 days would mean there's no (earth like) seasons and agriculture would not be constrained to growing things at specific times of the year. A wheat farmer could split their farm into sections and be sowing and harvesting continuously.

> what's the point of taking machine code capable software, compiling it into WASM, and then compiling that back into machine code?

That's where the proliferation of instruction sets and instruction set versions is relevant. My comment wasn't trying to address the Java/.NET part of your question.

My response to "Why not Java bytecode" is here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32743910. I don't know enough about the design of the CLR to comment. In any case, neither Java bytecode nor CLR bytecode are proper open standards, so they seem like bad fits for the web unless Microsoft or Oracle wanted to lead an effort to turn them into web standards.

I don't have enough experience with compiler back-end theory to respond intelligently to what sort of challenges and benefits a stack-based IR represents, but I know that you can view a stack language as a language with arbitrarily many registers, which you can translate into SSA form, which lets you do efficient register allocation, so I imagine the stack-based nature might be okay? I agree that allowing unaligned memory access seems like an issue, but I suppose the alternative there is to have different alignment requirements per architecture, which hurts interoperability. I'd love to hear from WASM implementers whether this causes problems in practice or not.
Most don't really care that much.

Always reserve about 2G for macOS/Windows and about 1G for a desktop variant of linux.

For example "WindowServer" on my Mac is using 1.22G at the moment by itself.

For Chrome tabs:

95MB static cost per tab; some sites load a lot of data: console.cloud.google.com takes 1GiB of ram for me; LinkedIn takes about 700MiB

Jira, Confluence, Google Cloud Console, Slack and Gmail on my machine consume 4GiB when running simultaneously.

That's before I have things like teams, onedrive/dropbox, docker or an IDE.

I don't think 16G is too little, but I could see how there's a potential there to run out quite easily.

Use spot pricing everywhere possible. Anything you can't put in spot, put in reserved instances.

If your spend supports it, going with an AWS partner like Mission will allow you to save about 5%. They place your account under their org, and you pay them. You lose some visibility in the billing interface however, but gain some additional advantages in terms of reporting etc.

Think in terms of batches. Most of the time a single Lambda is overpowered for the single unit of work it's performing. Batching that work up and executing in parallel in an "old school" manner is many many times cheaper. This isn't just a Lambda thing - it's very "cloudy" to want to split up units of execution across individual resources, but that means you're under-utilizing.
