I'll take a shot here. I'm not sure why you think Gmail or the other biggies can actually guarantee delivery any better or worse than anyone else. In a technical sense, they definitely can't.

In an anecdotal sense, I mean, I've dealt with my hostdime stuff, gmail and outlook. My stuff and gmail deliver just fine. Outlook does fail.

In a practical sense, see issue above. I think "non-delivery" via the big-boys getting things wrong on spam (and worse future outcomes, pretty easy to imagine gmail trying to "amp" or something similar email such that it cuts out little guys) is a far far greater danger or problem than an individual or smaller outfit tinkering with their own servers and occasionally getting things wrong.

I switched from google music to spotify because google made it impossible to use google music from an account on a custom domain with google home.

Spotify is okay, but I wouldn't hesitate to move if something else is out there that has better value.
I already use scihub (I explained in the post). However, it is much much slower than google scholar.
What boils my blood the most about this is the fact Spotify lured developers in the early days, filled out their functional gaps and got free feature validation through those developers, bought and shuttered the Echonest to ensure devs would mostly only build for Spotify and its (Premium) subscriber base and then invested nothing into the developer ecosystem after that, instead chipping away at the existing tools and stopped responding to developers emails.

It feels like Spotify showed music devs a green pasture and then corralled them into a slaughter pit (so to speak).

There's currently a propaganda war between multiple powerful lobbies - the animal rights lobby, the meat producers, conventional ag producers, and more - which means there is a ton of misinformation flying around about the actual environmental impacts of eating meat. Really, of all things dietary.

Meanwhile there are a bunch of people exploring alternate agriculture systems through agroecological approaches that show a lot of promise, but haven't been studied enough to really make claims about either way.

Further, you cannot just say "x amount of finished beef produces y emissions" because there are so many factors that go into it. Feedlot vs traditional range vs intensive rotational vs silvopasture are all different with completely different environmental impacts - of which carbon is only one.
If prediction markets could help, we wouldn't need science.
This compares gas -> motion with battery -> motions. To close the loop, we’d have to incorporate the generation efficiency. That will still yield an impressive number, but not 5x.
I'm a meat eater and also very invested in reducing my environmental impact despite that, and I'm very interested in learning more about this. Can you point me to your original sources?

The vast majority of monocultured grains are used to feed livestock. Plant based diet, even if you ate soy and wheat and corn and nothing else, has an order of magnitude smaller impact than eating meat.
Right. I don't want it to be with a subscription (I will use my own sim card).

Also, I live in Italy, not US.
>Because there is evidence that meat production done right IE intensive rotation grazing or silvopasture where the meat is grazed on a small section of land at a time and most of the land is left fallow most of the time can actually drastically increase ecosystem services. It allows the land to function as native prairie or savanna.

>Meanwhile monocultured grain, beans, and veggies - especially conventional with heavy fertilizer use - are devastating to ecosystems.

You're suggesting, in a very roundabout way, that we drastically reduce meat consumption. None of these things you describe can be done sustainably without a drastic reduction of livestock.

Groups of people always value community over ethics, correctness, or any other virtue. There is little reason to photoshop the figures risking destruction of reputation unless deeper issues lurk. We are going to see more damning evidence as fast as people can dig through prior results.

I am one of those people who certainly missed the boat due to my own missteps, mistakes, lack of motivation

But let's talk about those who don't/didn't have the favourable circumstances and opportunities I had/have

Is not being able to afford / be-accepted-for a life changing college degree that person's fault 50% of the time ? is it their parents' fault ? is it the grandparents' fault that the parents weren't better off ? if so ... where does this blame game stop ? at some point govt/society needs to step in and give you a boost regardless of your background

debatably, inheritance & land ownership are well executed systemic conspiracies

mistakes, missteps, lack of motivation, are all fine - but "lack of ability" ? you're arguing against yourself there - if there is such a thing as lack of ability - that's certainly a terrible reason to disqualify a person from having their basic needs met

It's different depending on which vaccine technology was used.

Some vaccines used a lipid shell to get around the problems of raw MRNA being really fragile. However, it seems they made the protection too good, and MRNA that was supposed to just stay in the arm easily travelled further and got into the bloodstream. That means that MRNA was getting into cells all around the body and causing spike protein production everywhere, instead of just in the arm like designed.

This means that you got inflammation problems everywhere in the body, including in the heart (myocarditis/pericarditis), vascular systems ("brain fog", general unwellness), and reproductive systems (especially for women).

Inflammation in the injection site for a vaccine is pretty normal, inflammation elsewhere is terrible.

Initial optimistic assumptions of the MRNA being permanently consumed by the body relatively quickly also don't seem to be true - even the CDC recently edited a page on MRNA vaxxes to remove a statement that the MRNA is used up quickly. The very worst case scenario could be people who got vaxxed just have cells pumping out inflammatory spike protein at a low rate for years.

Other vaccines used a real virus vector that is modified version to express spike protein. This of course has the issue of a virus being not entirely controllable once it's in the body. Again, you'll have the problem of the virus (and thus the spike protein it expresses) ending up in strange places. However, the immune profile is slightly different, as the immune system will start to attack the vaccine vector as it progresses in the body.

Several vaccines were associated with strange, systemic blood clotting in some people - but I'm not sure if they ever found the mechanism of action.

Novavax uses a traditional protein+adjuvant mix seen in many previous vaxxes. There's no widespread report of nasty side effects with Novavax - but there's not that much usage of Novavax in the wild either.

Aside from that, there's also the issue that in targeting a variant of the rapidly-mutating spike protein, you set people up to be victim to the long-known "original antigenic sin" effect.

Immune system works off a principle of first impression - it targets a response to whatever it sees first. This also applies to infections that are somewhat close but not the same as what is 'memorised' by the immune system already. So an infection by a COVID variant when the person has been exposed to a vaccine for the originals will produce an immune response for the modified original protein, not the real infection that is currently happening. (The vaccines target a modified original spike protein, and not the S-shape protein as well, so the distance is even greater.)
Since the spike protein keeps shifting so fast in the wild, hitting the OAS effect is really likely over time.

Some people think the S-protein in the middle of COVID should have been targeted by the vaccines, not the spikes, as it's more stable. It's hard to know if that would have been more effective.

>> Dramatically reducing meat consumption is the single best thing the average westerner could do to limit their environmental impact[...]

> b) Because there is evidence that meat production done right IE intensive rotation grazing or silvopasture where the meat is grazed on a small section of land at a time and most of the land is left fallow most of the time can actually drastically increase ecosystem services. It allows the land to function as native prairie or savanna.

There's no way the method of meat production that you described can produce meat to sastisfy current US demand, let alone increasing demand from the developing world. Therefore practically speaking, reduction of meat consumption will still be needed.
"The out-of-pocket limit for a Marketplace plan..."

It's capped for 'in network' stuff. But 'out of network' - the infamous phrase that... you can hardly ever really know ahead of time... it's 'no max'.

This is a plan purchased directly from the ACA marketplace, so either they're all in violation of their own rules or... the "in network" is all they mean.

And that 'out of pocket' is still sort of crazy because "premiums" don't count. Our premiums would be around $12k year, but then we can have another ~$18k of fees on top of that before. $12k PLUS another $7k of 'deductible' before there's any insurance kicking in (beyond 'negotiated discount rates').

Had an ER visit last year - $4k. Miraculously, with all the insurance I have (earlier, before the ACA plan), we still owed over $2k of that... Insurance 'negotiated rate' brought things down some, but $2k (plus another $600 for ambulance ride).

I really fear getting sick or injured here the older I get
It is a lot different because if the study isn't published in one journal, it could always be published in another. In this situation, the study wouldn't be done at all until a journal agreed to publish it.
See my other comment for details.

People are trying to confuse matters by talking about Primary energy as if your quality of life has a 1:1 relationship with fossil CO2 released.

So, if we are actually talking about "primary energy" then we would have enough if we used it efficiently. But we dont. Because our politicians prefer burning gas to heating homes. Gas burnt gets them a kickback, warm homes don't.

Hence why all the solutions to this gas price crisis that don't involve burning even more gas get drowned out.

You can say "well we don't have well insulated homes now", yes I know. But maybe you should be asking "Why don't we have well insulated homes?" because that answer will explain more about how the energy crisis plays out than thermodynamics does.
I just sat through a talk at Worldcon by Henry Spencer that addressed some of these issues. He presented the case that to provide the energy we need to address future needs, including raising the standard of living in Third World countries, we’ll need space based solar power.
The most interesting statistic I've heard recently is that the United States uses more energy just for its AC than the entire African continent does for literally everything combined.

The gap is incredible.
I think the most critical was:

> The excess risk of serious adverse events found in our study points to the need for formal harm-benefit analyses

It's hard to code secure PHP. When starting, I was like: 'So I can just pass a query parameter with <script>alert(1)</script> and do trivial XSS on random sites if I wanted to?' Smart PHP coders always sanitize, but for PHP newbies, it's easy to introduce some vulnerabilities if you don't do defensive coding practices.

There's things like directory traversal attacks too (putting ../../ in requests etc) which you have to prevent. PHP doesn't do it for you, you have to be very defensive with it. Which is why I use PHP sparingly and use Python and Perl more. Those languages even still have potential vulns, but not nearly as bad as the ones you can introduce in PHP IMHO.
> where the enemy's morale is depleted

Do note in option B of this scenario there are no enemies and nobody's morale gets depleted. The commander makes choices so as to avoid turning local villagers into enemies.

I would totally like to see this kind of scenarios in "consumer" wargames, and I totally agree with you they are disappointingly about depleting hitpoints or whatever. They are shooters (or their RTS equivalents) rather than thinking wargames.

The main issue here is the bioavailability of those proteins when digesting.
red meat is 100% digested and bioavailable for all amino acid that are required for life.
Bio availability of protein in plant is far lower, and doesn’t cover the full amino-acid profile.

>The plastic bag may have a lower carbon footprint, but it isn't going to biodegrade as quickly, and may end up turning into microplastics that persist for a long time.

What you described is a non-issue if the bag is disposed of properly. Presumably you, as a environmentalist can be relied upon to do that.
Electric motors don’t need manual (or indeed, any) transmissions because they have a basically-flat torque curve across their entire RPM range. The only options for an electric motor are fake transmission or no transmission, and the parent is arguing for the latter and against “transmission cosplay”. A real manual transmission on an electric car would have no point.
Life definitely has one-way gates, but tech can avoid them a lot more than we do today. Soft deletes and backups give a time-bound undo period to user actions, and so freeing up space on my drive isn't irreversible.

Also, to stretch the analogy I used further: one way to avoid lighting one's own house on fire by mistake is to not make the things you light on fire look like houses. In the case above, and in many other cases (like the big Atlassian outage earlier this year) the problem wasn't so much that the user was deliberately deleting important stuff, it's that they couldn't tell the difference between the class of unimportant things they thought they were deleting from and the class of important things they would stop and think long and hard about before deleting.
I would only trust an application like this with "real" money if A) it was provided directly by my broker/dealer/exchange or B) it was open source. Since A is not an option I'd suggest open-sourcing the code.

A distant second problem is it should be cross-platform. That's just table stakes in this day and age.
Wasn't the price of these implementations one of the factors for the (symbolic) AI winter?

During conscription, the sergeant corrected someone that talked about kills and told him it's casualties. "Sure, that's an euphemism, isn't it?"

Well no, a kill is one enemy less. A wounded is better: the one that's wounded and one or two more to drag him to safety + later logistics.
Honestly a “fuck carbon emissions” t-shirt is probably an easier and more direct way of communicating your membership to the “environmentalism” tribe while still doing fuck-all to reduce emissions. If you actually care about the environment, then you’re doing everything in your power to promote carbon pricing or other policies that have an outsized impact beyond shallow lifestyle choices. Personal responsibility stuff plays right into fossil fuel industry’s hand—it’s all premature micro optimization. To copy another commenter, it’s arranging deck chairs on the titanic.
I tend to agree, however, it does strike me as odd that when I went on carnivore diet for a couple months, it was the best I had ever felt in my life. First week was awesome, every week after that was a chore. It’s just really boring.

Contained fusion might be impossible but I don't think we have anything as suggestive that quantum computing is possible as we do for fusion.
I think you have a valid point, but I'm not sure it's made effectively, which I think is why you got downvotes.

An example might help: Elon Musk is not, AFAIK, vegan. But he's done a lot to popularize electric cars, having far more impact than he could by changing his diet. Likewise, the Beyond meat people have probably done a lot more to reduce meat consumption than they could ever outweigh by eating steak every meal for the rest of their lives. (I am actually not clear on the net environmental benefit of using gas vs. making more batteries, but let's say for the sake of argument that electric cars are an environmental benefit, since it's just an example.)
Doesn't the same apply to nuclear fusion power generation?
I'd really like to keep both webs, but the reality is that everyone trying to monetize wants an app, and failing that a webapp that is a complete black box. So that is probably the way it will go. I like document only websites for conveying information. Know a lot about X and want to share your knowledge? Make a document. I can see room for some partial interactivity for hands on tutorials, like notebooks. But I don't really want any interactivity on my news sites, sadly they will head for the blackbox model first for the money. For a payment portal, a banking app, a multiplayer videogame, probably even a web ide or chat client, I don't want any document like behavior, I just want an app, and if it can be sandboxed in my browser, all the better.

Ideally I want security sensitive apps to turn into blackbox webapps. I want most everything else to be pure html+css. With interactivity there when you really need it to convey your meaning or to generate documents more quickly.

In reality, I think your nightmare scenario is far more likely. It just makes serving ads so much easier. And they still will keep making native apps for things that should be websites (which is my nightmare) because that makes it even easier to get valuable data.
There’s a certain class of programmer who seems to derive great pleasure in comparing programming to architecture. Maybe because architects are cool, or sound more grand than “programmer”.

I think there are several issues with this. In these fields, theories (not so fundamental ones) may not be very useful, in contrast with fields like Mathematics or Physics where a hypothesis may lead to a lot of other theoretical results. For example, if material A has property X, there will be a lot of applications for it, but this hypothesis cannot be used as a foundation for other theoretical research. As a result, it is not useful to just state a hypothesis: you have to verify it as well, and negative results are not really valued because it means nothing to others if you rejected something they don't care about.
