The sun only fuses up to carbon; bigger stars go up to iron; supernova and colliding neutron stars produce the heavier stuff we currently use.

Trying to use this process artificially for various elements in current annual demand by our economy involves more than enough energy to boil the ocean in fairly short periods — I'd have to redo the calculations to see if that period was hours or years, but it's a simple question of physics.

We might skip fusion rockets for antimatter (making that is painfully expensive, but it would get us up to 0.4c) or laser propulsion (needs massive infrastructure, but can arbitrarily approach c).

> Electrolyses uses mostly fossil fuel and will continue to do so. It's a simple question of physics.

Physics doesn't require that electrolysis uses fossil fuels, it requires only electricity. Electrolysis will use whatever electricity is cheapest. Right now, for new installations, that's PV. Ten years ago it was not. It's a simple question of economics.
> Considering the manner of Jesus’s own death I think we can safely state

What I really dislike about Christianity is that there's a book with "absolute moral code" but it's written in stories and riddles so the absolute rules are interpreted differently by every single person, while all of them claim that the book (and thus the God) fully supports their position. There are people who abuse women and keep saying it's because Jesus said that's right, and at the same time there are people claiming that behavior is clearly forbidden by Jesus so Christianity must be good.
I found advanced maths is like learning engineering. They're less fun than junior maths, where it triggers thinking more effieciently.

So to me, the secret here, is advanced maths is represented boringly on purpose mathematicians (like a note), instead of education purpose.

> So where does it end?

It doesn't (can't) ever end because security is a process, not something you achieve and are done.

With ~inifite budget, one could achieve perfect security (but only for a clearly scoped threat model) for an instant, but both the infrastructure and the attackers move on, things constantly change, so it's not perfect anymore. And of course infinite budgets don't exist.

Librelec (and other ROMs) ship the ffmpeg fork which uses the acceleration
I sort of disagree. ALSA didn't really have difficulty mixing multiple playback streams unless you go back really far. dmix works quite well. It has a lot of problems, particularly dealing with routing, hot plugging, etc. but the dmix stuff always worked more or less fine for me, as long as I had it configured. otoh, pulse took quite a while to mature in my opinion, and had plenty of issues with this basic functionality over time, though I will at least be fair and say that it got blamed for a lot of ALSA driver issues and other nonsense too. (I think up until recently it was defaulting to doing resampling with a Speex resampler that suffered from fairly noticable aliasing in many cases, as a result of the projects paranoia to be seen as a resource hog...)

That and bitbanging audio through GPIO or otherwise bypassing the ALSA stack doesn't seem all that unreasonable. I can't find any specific information about it with LibreElec/etc. but it would not surprise me.

Oh well. I think Pipewire has a lot of potential today. It brings much improvement to routing and session management for audio and the hybrid scheduler design and considerations for pro audio use cases makes it very promising. I hope the need to bypass the Linux audio stack can disappear.
The problem with many of these museums and even the medieval sources they're based on is that there's a strong incentive to make things as gruesome as possible, including just making shit up. For example, everybody's heard of the Iron Maiden, but all existing devices appear to be "replicas" and there's no properly documented case of such a device actually being used for execution.
Dan Carlin did an history podcast on punishment and the spectacle of punishment:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5oRv4NZzBKw
He described a medieval central Europe scene where being broken on the wheel was punishment for some crime. The watchers were singing hymns and crying the condemned would sing along in a quiet broken voice and occasionally request a certain hymn, even after limbs had been shattered and broken. Somehow it was seen as necessary to save the persons soul.

> I understand why Germany, a poorer country which was late to electronic payments, wouldn't do this; I don't understand the hostility to it. But then, I'm American, we've been doing this longer than you've been alive.

You mean payments between banks that take two to three days within the country instead of a regulated maximum of 15 seconds across borders?

It's a shame you're so salty that the rest of the world has far overtaken the US. You may have been doing it "longer", but you've absolutely failed to iterate and are still stuck with obsolete technology that's rife with fraud, for which a more appropriate feeling than saltiness is shame.

The brilliance of this is there's no chance of bugs caused by the internal paddle position (that causes the ball to bounce) not matching the drawn position, which would make the ball either pass through the paddle or bounce off nothing. Whether that was any part of a motivation for this design or it was purely driven by technical limitations, it's just a very elegant solution.

The idea that the Inuit had low cardiovascular disease on a high meat, high fat diet looks to be unfounded, and based on unreliable mortality data [2]. Several Inuit bodies mummified in ice from centuries years ago have been autopsied and found to have evidence of atherosclerosis

I haven't taken the TGV in 10 years, but I don't remember it being "very expensive". It was somewhat expensive, but there were also plenty of ways to travel cheaply on the TGV, to the point of being competitive with low-cost air travel, when you account for the fact that getting to/from airports is not free and is time-consuming.

But maybe things have changed in the last 10 years?

Very expensive would be the bullet train in Japan.
"Horror" stories like this one are not uncommon, and assuming you are in the right, I'm sorry that this is happening to you.

Orion Browser on iOS as well blocks YT ads for me.

The problem though with ad-tech is while browsers/uBO may work currently, it is a cat/mouse game and the big boys will win with their huge budgets and genius developers. Niche browsers like Brave/Orion and uBO extension are already probably getting to the point of being overwhelmed by constant breakage of YT/Twitch/Etc ad blocking.
that coincidence :). I just implemented this in c++ using shader yesterday. The code is probably not so clean as the goal was to learn how to use shaders. but the code is quite simple as it does only this.

But it wasn't, and it does make a difference. Dall-E really wants to draw top hats on people and not cats because the prompt is ambiguous and top hats are normally seen on humans so it struggles to overcome that bias. Neither robots not cats wear top hats so it's an easier problem to get right.

But the real problem here is the refusal to do basic and normal things, like depict people. That's not normal - it's deeply weird and tells us a lot about what must be going on inside Google's ai research effort.

So.. I'm not a founder but I'm intelligent. What you describe is in my eyes is not intelligence. It's rather some psychological disorder like narcism. It's a coincidence that people / narcissist / who found, tend to be more intelligenty as other people / narcissist /, who do not found and choose to have a secure workplace with risks hold by someone else.

An engineer would never approach like that.

So, that's the curse of money and success.

I disagree, from my experience designers are generally not interested in OSS projects like developers are.
There is one designer for 50 developers.

Probably because for developers, OSS is a badge of honour and can help your CV / find paid jobs - while for designers it's just a dribble nobody cares about.

When designers partecipate, they get to contribute and even impose (sometimes questionable, think kde4) choices.

Adobe and Amazon are husks of their former selves and rely on the life force of companies they acquire to maintain that youthful glow.

It happened but wasn't all that common as can be read in the actual diary of a Public Executioner, see "A Hangman's Diary: The Journal of Master Franz Schmidt, Public Executioner of Nuremberg, 1573-1617". "A Hangman’s Diary is not only a collection of detailed writings by Schmidt about his work, but also an account of criminal procedure in Germany during the Middle Ages. With analysis and explanation, editor Albrecht Keller and translators C. Calvert and A. W. Gruner have put together a masterful tome that sets the scene of execution day and puts you in Master Franz Schmidt’s shoes as he does his duty for his country.".
It sounds almost unbelievable.

I'd try a couple of small tweaks

Like include your requirements on salary, if you are open to contract, etc.

Will be interested to know what happens after you change some things up.
That’s probably not too far off the mark... with the proviso that we are fixing the notation, terminology, and problem solving methods for electrical engineering to what was historically used in the 1950s, and not allowing any more radical “refactoring” of those ideas or methods.

I don’t think this is actually the most effective way to train analog electrical engineers, or the most effective possible set of conceptual/notational tools for practical electrical engineering.

I wrote a long comment detailing why I think this won’t work at all, certainly not in the next five years.
But I realized that the article isn’t that far off, it just got one detail wrong. If the imagined future comes to be, Apps don’t make sense as a concept anymore.
If we have AI that can generate an app for any use case that I might have, then we also have AI that can just do the thing. No need for bespoke interfaces.

That is a future I find much more reasonable. But looking at the state of AI Assistants today I still have a very hard time believing that this will come to be in the next 5 years. But in 20 years? Sure, why not.

Does it matter? Kiwi Farms spreads hate, therefore it deserves to be shut down.

"Net neutrality" was really about double-dipping by demanding payment to not throttle bandwidth at the server side. It was never about tolerating hate speech.

This is how the net works now. It's not the 90s or 2000s anymore. If you are, or are thought to be, spreading hate and fomenting harassment against LGBTQ or other marginalized groups, you cannot be guaranteed that netsec companies will protect you, that networks will route packets coming from you, or that banks and payment processors will handle your money. You are too big a risk for legitimate businesses to deal with you.

I'm sorry for the pain it will cause you.

I had a similar story with my own accounts.

It's just lost forever, luckily I had many others, and didn't associate my whole life to any single account or provider, nor used social sign in, so it was not life altering, just a bit of work.

But selfishly, I hope those kind of story get published more and more so that people finally realized that what we told them not to do the for the last 20 years was not just for the sake of it.

People don't listen to preventive talks. We see that with cyber security, climate change, and so on.

They only start to move when they get hurt.

I wished people would have listened to us when we advised not to give everything to GAFAM, not to put everything online, and not everything on one provider. And certainly not to trust them with being on your side.

So they wouldn't have to get hurt.

But this is not how we, as a specie, learn. We need to get hurt.

So make sure a lot of people know about this. Not just in the hope to get the account back, but because maybe more people will listen this time.
This might sound dumb, but if the phone number belongs to someone else now, could you just call/text them and explain the situation and (eventually) ask them to read you the code or something? Admittedly it'd sound suspicious as heck, but if you're willing to provide sufficient proof of your identity and somehow offer a reward in a safe manner, the person might understand and be willing to help? You'd have to be pretty smooth about it, but it seems worth preparing for and giving it a try.

Alternative idea: If you're really desperate, you could even try to dig up the phone number owner's address and show up at their door or something and explain it that way. (Note I'm not recommending these per se; I'm just pointing out what's possible. Obviously be very careful to consider everything before doing such a thing.)

If you have a Linux PC with a TPM, you can use https://github.com/psanford/tpm-fido to create and "plug in" a virtual USB WebAuthn key whose secret is irretrievably stored in the machine's TPM. This effectively asserts that your specific machine is being used to enter a given site. However, it's important to remember it doesn't necessarily verify that *you're* present, or even if *anyone* is present at all, since the presence check is done via a software dialog and can be pwned along with the rest of the system.

Nature Human Misbehavior: politicized science is neither science nor progress
I think this maybe an example of an increasingly common scenario in life. We like to envision for any given problem that there are good solutions, and that there are bad solutions. And so if one solution is provably bad, then surely an alternative must be better. But in reality, there are often just bad solutions and worse solutions. The point I make with this is that attacking the failings of one solution doesn't really say anything about the alternative.

It's often interesting how much wisdom there is tucked away in simple, old, folky sayings that one only appreciates much later. "Out of the frying pan and into the fire."
