It would depend on the well and the “heat availability” (not a technical term) and how deep it was.

Yeah, there's no need for "AI" software on this project. From the images, it looks like a straight out-of-the-box use of YOLO v7 or something to make it seem more fancy, but this could be easily be done manually without any machine learning at all (or code for that matter).
Neither the article nor the wiki page reveals exactly who thought it was eaten into extinction, which I find difficult to believe is a notion that came from legitimate experts on the subject. Certainly many animal species were eaten into extinction, and many plant species have gone extinct, but I have not heard before of any plant species that were eaten into extinction.

> it really does feel like blockchain might have just finished it’s infancy (the scam era, let’s say).

I don't buy it? Structurally, nothing has really stopped the social engineering and manipulation of cryptocurrency. The same principles that made cryptocurrency attractive for scamming still hold true, and the audience of potential legitimate users shrinks with each passing day.

I hate echoing the comment above, but I've been hearing this argument since 2012. Cryptocurrency will not graduate from it's scam phase unless it has a centralized judicial body to punish and correct wrongdoings. If that ever happens, cryptocurrency will have no tangible benefits when compared to centralized alternatives.

It's going to be akin to content creation on youtube, perhaps even just people using youtube as their distribution medium. Anyone can make a youtube video but we don't see everyone creating content.

We should see a proliferation of the tech such that lots of small (even one-man) studios pop up pumping out high quality content, but the content is released on a schedule similar to how youtube videos are now. Your preferences come into play through your suggested watch list, it'll be populated from this pre-created media based on whatever preference machine learning algorithm the distribution platform (youtube?) decides. The feedback through watch-metrics will then be used by these micro studios to decide what to create next. It's basically what already happens now with youtube content creation, but the quality of what people will produce will be better than hollywood content movies / tv shows, and the pace of release will be much quicker.

Not everyone needs to be training and generating their own content in order for your content preferences to be absolutely saturated with things you'd enjoy watching.
I just now did a speedtest.net run on my Starlink connection, with no other network traffic running: 14.22 Mbs down / 8.76 Mpbs up.

OK, that's pretty crap. But before Starlink my best option was DSL at around 8 down / 1.5 up. So for me the new "crap" is about a 75% improvement on the old hotness, at about the same price. With that competition they'll have to do even worse to lose my business.

Brazil is the world largest exporter of beef (mostly to the US) and it costs huge swathes of land, killing the rainforest plus more methane in the atmosphere.

This looks really cool! Especially using datafusion underneath means that it probably is blazingly fast.

If you like this, I recommend taking a look at OctoSQL[0], which I'm the author of.

It's plenty fast and easier to add new data sources for as external plugins.

It can also handle endless streams of data natively, so you can do running groupings on i.e. tailed JSON logs.

Additionally, it's able to push down predicates to the database below, so if you're selecting 10 rows from a 1 billion row table, it'll just get those 10 rows instead of getting them all and filtering in memory.

The advice that I've gotten from my doctor is five to seven portions of meat at spread over at least two days per week. So yes, you don't need to eat it every day, but you still need to eat a good amount. And it may just be simpler to eat 3 to 4 ounces of chicken each day with something else than to track how often you're eating 2-3x that much over two days in the week.
I agree, but that's one hell of an uphill battle considering the amount of money that would be behind those opposing such laws. Until said laws pass, storing things locally is a valid option for a stopgap despite how cumbersome it might be.

Edit: I also have little faith in any legal remedy going far enough. The cat's out of the proverbial bag, too many businesses "depend" on data, and the government certainly enjoys being able to more easily access your data via cloud businesses than having to deal with a different enduser's setup every single time. Not saying we can't make progress, but I'm pessimistic.
I'm terrified of our current and future problems around this and similar tech.

> doesn't make an understanding of CICO unhelpful

A naïve person might see CICO and immediately conclude that the most direct way to weight loss is to eat less and exercise more -- which can work except that the body reacts to this change by making you more hungry and conserving more energy. Now you get into the realm where systematic effects dominate: how do you reduce hunger? how do you coax the body to burn more fuel? At this stage, what you eat, how you eat it, and when you eat it becomes much more important than strictly controlling the calories -- because while it's possible to do so, it's also impractical to do so consciously in many cases.

At this point, any practical solution still needs to comply with the laws of physics (i.e. CICO), but that's kind of like insisting that a person needs to understand the laws of quantum mechanics to play basketball.
It's not clear that there are any tools. A dedicated person could do it by hand for the six photos presented. And that's assuming they don't have any other context making the time/date location obvious (maybe he picked Instagram posts where the caption said "Look where I was at 3pm yesterday!"- some of those are probably lies, but you just have to find one that isn't)

These days, there are people who are extremely good at locating much harder photos in time and space. This one is relatively simple:

It is not a Seattle thing. It is a living in a highly populated dense urban environment thing because the probability of a stranger talking to you out of nowhere being a scammer or salesperson is very high.

Even in SEA or other big cities, people are more than happy to strike up conversation while waiting in line for food or tickets or any activity with mutual interest, but accepting random conversations while transiting from one place to another is a recipe for wasting one’s time or worse.

I'm actually quite fond of my comment, even though it is effectively a rant.

Volvo and Polestar operate at the arm's length. There are interviews that talk about a shared EV platform. There are also numerous reported issues with core EV functionality in the Polestars, oftentimes so severe that it's unclear how they don't lead to immediate fleet recalls.

It's possible that the people interviewed are unrelated to those responsible for the problematic areas, but the context is still important.

I think the network latency of reaching out to a server instead of a CDN edge node was greatly overstated, especially when we then immediately fire off other requests for assets and hydration. This quote was in the context of comparing MPA to SPA architectures and tradeoffs.

Are you claiming boys and girls are the same gender?
I live in Dublin, and I walk (currently unemployed waiting for masters results and applying) a lot. It's not uncommon for me to spend the better part of the day out just wandering the city. There's definitely a lot of people with their heads in their phones (myself included at times, though I try not to!). I've been pushed off the sidewalk multiple times, or bumped into, by people not looking up where they're walking and just kinda zig-zagging down the sidewalk. Often, they've got their airpods in and their head still in the phone.

Maybe it's a Dublin thing though.

It's more expensive because the cost of meat is heavily, heavily subsidized by the government (at least in the US). The actual cost to produce meat is much higher than Impossible or Beyond [1].

> The United States federal government spends $38 billion every year subsidizing the meat and dairy industries. Research from 2015 shows this subsidization reduces the price of Big Macs from $13 to $5 and the price of a pound of hamburger meat from $30 to the $5 we see today.

I am not going to argue with what a doctor advises you, but I am going to say it must be personal. Lots of people live their whole lives without eating meat and do fine. Anyway, the take away is that a lot less is probably fine for you if you are the typical meat eater 7x a week.
I think this is mainly good advice.

> many native English speakers don't remember the proper terms for rules of English grammar

Umm, that is a gross understatement. Hardly any English schoolchildren are taught grammar, let alone names for the rules of grammar. I learned grammar, back in the sixties; but not English grammar. Oh no - I had to take Latin classes, and that's where I learned grammar. "Grammar" is almost an obscene word, in modern English pedagogical circles. They get taught about "thing words" and "doing words".
> This is literally not what is happening in the real world though.

Give it time. You know what happened with GCC on the NeXT computer; the only reason the NeXT compiler became free is because NeXT had to release it, since they based it on GCC.

> There has been no uptake of GCC for this role since it's inception. We both know why.

We do not. I was under the impression that the GCC stance on modularity has mellowed in recent times.

> using LLVM is made i would prefer that over a fully custom compiler.

False dichotomy. I would prefer GCC.
I want to switch to Garmin because my Fitbit Charge 5 died after 4 months and the replacement they sent me dead after 2 days!

I think the generally accepted meaning of "selfie" has drifted far enough into including "photos of my(self) taken with my phone at my request" that nitpicking about it has similarly drifted into the "WELL ACHURLY, literally doesn't mean that" school of prescriptivist nonsense.
In this case `query_params` works well, but it's sometimes hard to find descriptive and reasonably concise names for the intermediate value. In those cases, the ideal would be using only postfix chaining, so that you can read it by only keeping the intermediate value and the next operation in mind:

s.split('?')[1]
.split('&')[-3:]
.map(lambda x: x.split('=')[1])

Unfortunately, that's not how Pythons map(), len() and such were designed.
As someone who's been strictly keto for over a decade, it would be difficult for me to maintain my macros without meat, or a close substitute. (I would mirror nu11ptr's comments[1] as well.) As someone who finds mass murder and exploitation of other animals distasteful, I'm also constantly on the lookout for realistic alternatives.

For a while, I really tried to make Beyond Meat work. I wasn't thrilled about introducing a highly processed food filled with low-quality fat (canola oil) as a daily staple, but the macros weren't terrible (although far from ideal).

It worked for a few months, but one day it was like a switch had suddenly flipped in my head, and even the smell of cooking it was enough to make me gag. I haven't been able to stomach it ever since. Impossible is probably more workable in that regard, but the macros are even worse, it's also highly processed (arguably more so), and I'd be skeptical of using soy as my majority protein source due to the phytoestrogens.

All that being said, I recently got a chance to try a "chicken cutlet" from Meati[2]. I would highly recommend it to anyone who isn't allergic. Summary:

* Rather than imitating ground meats, they sell fake steaks and chicken cutlets.

* Rather than a highly processed blend of ingredients, it's a whole food — just a particular species of mycelium (what they're branding as "mushroom root"), grown in molds to fit certain shapes then flavored and pressed to remove water.

* Complete protein, 0g net carbs, good variety of (naturally occurring) micronutrients. If this matters to you, it's also low-fat.

If I hadn't known otherwise, I would've assumed it was just a lean cut of chicken that had been marinated in some sort of mushroom sauce, and I'm saying this as someone who eats actual meat on a daily basis.

From my perspective, Meati seems like the holy grail. It's good enough to convince me that cultured meat may turn out to be redundant. The current supply is too limited to use as a daily staple, but it's going to become my go-to protein as soon as they finish scaling up production.

It's been mentioned a bit on HN but HTMX is brilliant and along with AlpineJS, you have immense power despite very little JS, or even none at all. With almost everything happening on the backend, you can focus almost all development energy on using the language of your choice. As a Kotlin fanboy I absolutely love this paradigm and am writing entire sites in my favorite language (huge shout-out to jte.gg, a native templating engine). Just in the past few weeks I've built numerous functions/features/pages in a day that would have taken weeks or more to do with Vue or React.
Livestock also produce organic fertilizer though.
I really think you are mixing completely unrelated things together. Just a thought experiment: there is a company that has no office/contact in the EU.

You keep applying laws for companies operating in NL to any arbitrary company operating elsewhere.
> "No longer does one simply roll the dice and go"

Nonsense. Unless I'm actively going somewhere for a specific time (interview, doctor, what not), almost every one of my walks will include a "I've not been down that road before" diversion. Or a "Oh, an SSVI[1] sign down that alley!" diversion. etc.etc.

(And I think 99.9% of those walks since 2011 has been with an iPhone in hand.)

> A device that forces us to look down and ignore changes in light.

Gibberish nonsense. People choose to look at their phones because their friends and family are in there, because they want to catch up on the news, or any one of a thousand other valid reasons that aren't "THE PHONE MAKES THEM LOOK!!!!"

I take issue with the word "can". I don't think there are any involuntary vegans, so it's not that there's nothing else on the menu that you can eat, but rather that there's nothing else on the menu that you want to eat.
Ok, quick rules that focus on single lines. That's neat, but from experience most of the complexity comes from the structure more than just how the code is written, conventions about how to write a line of code won't fix corrupt indirections, misplaced coupling, lack of cohesion, undue repetitions, missing tests, etc.

Clean code is not just a few rules about how to write a line. You can write nice lines that still don't make sense and amount to shit code
