The Norway problem came to mind for me, too, but I don't think there's much opportunity for that to arise here given that strings are quoted. Meanwhile, there's plenty of other precedent for yes/no instead of true/false; shell scripts come to mind.

I don't know if I prefer this over treating everything as a string and letting readers/writers decide on their own how to parse things, but it seems like a much more reasonable approach than YAML's.
No, not really. It makes a lot of sense in all stable countries.
Maybe? Maybe not? You are likely as well positioned on judging about that based on looking at an arbitrary name on a message board than the usual recruiters are based on looking at LinkedIn profiles. They are buzzword searching, and a the actual skill check follows in an interview loop. It might just either be about different buzzwords, or a different geographic region.

Minetest is an absolutely incredible project. My kids love to play it and it's one I can get behind because I can easily self-host so I own all the data, and I know my kids aren't talking to internet strangers through the game.

It's packaged on most distros also so you can probably `apt get install minetest` or `dnf install minetest` and have it running. You can host games on the LAN from your machine, or you can easily start a server. On fedora you can trivially `dnf install minetest-server` and then run `minetestserver` and you've got a server!
The fact that it can physically be set to anything doesn't mean there isn't an implicit contract.
> Fentanyl is a legal but controlled substance in the US. It is not malicious for a company to supply fentanyl to US hospitals.

This is a naive take, and one that proves that you didn't even care to read the article. These substances are not sold to hospitals, which should be obvious since hospitals do not import tons of opioids and chemical precursors in bulk.

Also, it hardly compares to Canada exporting aluminium. A more accurate comparison would be if Canada would export gunpowder to Mexico, and arm trade happened massively through the southern border.

> It is a deeply unserious, and 100% politically motivated narrative. Just because it is incessantly regurgitated does not make it any less unserious.

So banks, big pharma, and the US may be to blame, but China wouldn't? The US played drug politics for decades now, and China would not? That's an odd take. Even if this was all a huge smear campaign against China, ignoring the fact that the Chinese government would be interested in destabilising other countries is naive at best.
The amount of sensitive data Microsoft must be collecting from all manner of organizations is insane. As far as I can tell companies just don't care at all about the data they leak to third parties anymore. They seem to either trust that they'll know when that data is abused or leaked or that they can lawyer their way out of being responsible for any fallout. It must be an endless gold mine for MS though to have that level of insight into what damn near every corporation is involved in.

They aren't better in Sweden. The right's support for it is not really related to the costs. I'm personally curious how it's going to pan out considering the right-wing parties claimed they'd be against state subsidies.
The previous government didn't stop the shutdown planned 40+ years ago (due to a national referendum), in part because the owners (Vattenfall) said it's not economically feasible to run them anymore without subsidies. It's complex.
How were you able to get an interview at that company? Was it through networking or did your FAANG experience show some kind of algorithmic prowess?

I'm a university student who's found out a little too late that I might be interested in Quant. I have great marks and algorithmic foundations but my past experience has been in Full Stack/Web Dev, and I've struggled to get an interview from any of these firms (and I don't entirely blame them).
> Not at all. I do think companies should be prevented from firing people without generous severance and/or good reason

It’s not a good reason that “we don’t have the money” or “we decided that our horse and buggy manufacturing division is no longer the direction we are going”?

A company is not a charity. The purpose of a company is to sell things at profit and they hire you with an understanding of exchanging labor for money.

> Averaged over a year, renewable energy sources operate at about 30% of their capacity. So even in a worst-case scenario with no storage whatsoever you would need to build 3x "overcapacity".

I don't think that calculation is valid. Even assuming perfectly sunny days solar power e.g. runs at less than 100 % of its capacity simply due to the day-night-cycle. However that doesn't mean that overbuilding solar by just "1 divided by average capacity utilisation %" will be enough to get you round-the-clock-power – in fact no amount of overbuilding will get you any solar power at all at night.

What you'd actually have to look at is define a desired reliability factor for your electric grid, calculate the minimum guaranteed power output for that reliability factor (so to remain with the solar power example – even during the daytime you need to calculate the likelihood and impact of cloudy weather, but in any case as soon you as you want more reliability than there are even theoretical sunshine hours in a day, guaranteed power output drops to zero – unless of course you finally attempt to include some storage) and then overbuild according to that calculation.
I honestly didn't realize it has that large a population. Although the city I was referring to in another comment with a small downtown core has half that metro population, so not a lot smaller. Cities can have large metro populations and still have a fairly small area that's what people consider a walkable downtown.
I thought they made guns out of steel. What's the aluminum for?
The answer, unfortunately, is you can't. Once you start talking about USB3 or HDMI, the testing equipment to test it 'properly' as you would professionally gets to be easily $10k, and can be upwards of $100k depending on the interface.

Shippingport, although much of the site was used for a new nuclear plant because of all of the shared infrastructure. Yankee Rowe is largely clean empty land, with a small storage site for dry fuel casks.

It doesn't happen much because it's economically smarter to keep operating a plant or replace it with another plant given that the site is already prepared for a nuclear power station.
You essentially said "what about HSBC" 'tu quoque' - whataboutism is a form.

I only have a very surface level understanding of linux, how does code running in user mode incur a bit of overhead as opposed to Kernel?
I've read her writing on the subject and it's rather a stretch to call her a bigot. It's possible to have a subtle position where you believe the rights of one group shouldn't override another. How can we possibly discuss a subject when someone like her, who can write thoughtfully but holds a different but not totally oppositional position is attacked so vehemently?

I've also tried to read her books and think they're pretty pants. Boring stories, bad prose, tiresome characters.

Yes, one nuclear power plant has greater output than a large number of wind turbine. That is not what the analogy was about.

The analogy is about how people pushing for wind and solar only/main are relying on every other area to be able to pick up the slack when their area is down. And the fact that they are not able or willing to pick up the slack when someone else's area is down.

Your comment was that Germany is having to support France while they have their reactors down and viewing that in a negative light. If France was supplying power to Germany during a lull in the wind, the response would be "This is just so, even though the wind does not blow all the time, with enough interconnects we can ensure that a green grid is possible."

There was even talk about expanding Europe's grid across to Libya in order to ensure that the wind would be blowing somewhere.

That is just holding one energy source to an impossible standard(i.e. zero downtime) while giving generous excuses to the other.
the mayor issue is the coal/gas lobby, just look how europe was lobbed to the point that natural gas is somewhat "green", but nuclear is bad to the point some countries don't even have one nuclear power plant.
Maybe we have two system, an imaginary layer and an accepted reality layer, dreams happen in the first one, experience in the other one. Mania happens when first former leaks in the latter.

Without endorsing her political positions, it's false to assert that Lang does 'not have any higher education'; your own link states 'After graduating from the Hölderlin-Gymnasium Nürtingen in 2012, Lang began studying law, first at the Heidelberg University and later at the Humboldt University of Berlin, eventually dropping out in 2019 without graduating.'

Relying on hyperbole like this undermines your own argument.
Markdown: Basic Syntax
The previous anti-nuclear social-democratic government together with the demonstrably insane "green" party installed a board in the state owned power company Vattenfall that after a while managed to sort of claim that it wasn't economically feasible to run the nuclear plants, with the new heavy taxes the social democrats had put in place on nuclear power production.

Yay?

Anyway, all of that insanity is thankfully history now.
Most of the time "intelligence" lags behind experience, I doubt it's a superset.

Seems pretty simple to me. Keep in mind it's not analyzing things to see where the error is (address line, I/O pin, which chip, etc). It's just a simple track errors per dimm, then remove the dimm. This works with Linux and several generation old Xeons with no problem. Kinda cool be be able just run free -h and see that a dimm is missing.
Yes, "The First Opium War (Chinese: 第一次鴉片戰爭; pinyin: Dìyīcì Yāpiàn Zhànzhēng), also known as the Opium War or the Anglo-Sino War was a series of military engagements fought between Britain and the Qing dynasty between 1839 and 1842, during the Century of humiliation. The immediate issue was the Chinese seizure of private opium stocks at Canton to stop the banned opium trade, and threatening the death penalty for future offenders. The British government insisted on the principles of free trade and equal diplomatic recognition among nations, and backed the merchants' demands."[1]

What happened to "Life's little instruction book"? What happened to "Don't sweat the small stuff (and it's all small stuff)"? Every so often some "nice" but vapid book or fad comes along and makes a lot of money from people in that literate but dull IQ range of 104-106 and while it's never fun to smilingly fend off recommendations from well-meaning friends ("You should read this! It's really inspiring!") it's all pretty harmless.

This project, walking around the world and sending dispatches, is different. While I talk to plenty of people during my trips, its a more macro based approach.

I've been to most of those countries, and they're no exception to the rule that the best exchange rates will be provided by the credit card networks. Though, Cambodia is strange--at least to someone from the US--since the USD is still such a strong, preferred, unofficial currency in many places there. You pull USD from a Cambodian ATM in USD and there will be no conversion fee whatsoever.

If your credit card doesn't carry high fees for the service, the network currency conversion is the way to go.

Enforcement is a solved problem - ships can be tracked by various means, ports where catches can be offloaded can be audited, crews can be arrested and ships impounded when in port. No one is going to overfish if they can't economically get their catch to market and get paid for their troubles. The issue is getting everyone to enforce the policies consistently - the leaders of different jurisdictions may not see eye to eye on what level of protection is optimal, and the people actually doing the enforcement may be willing to turn a blind eye to violations depending on circumstances.
Optimize for what excites you, not necessarily what you may be naturally talented in. Work hard at what you find fun, and the skill will follow.

Cautionary tale: I am a data scientist and love working with numbers. I fell into a job that required me to create educational videos about data science. I discovered that I am very good at narrating and creating educational videos.

People loved these videos! I was even told I should offer my services as a part-time voice actor due to my narration skills. More and more requests for videos kept piling in.

Meanwhile, all I wanted to do was get back to writing code. I didn't mind creating the videos but I found them draining. Analytics is truly what makes me happy and excited to start work in the morning. A career is a marathon and if you're not optimizing for what fills your cup every day, you will quickly burn out.

Do what makes you happy!
That is the opposite of my experience. Being a skilled coder means I can verify the outputs quickly. Further using a beginner coding “style” actually encourages the model to output similarly “beginner” code.

It has been the largest boon to my productivity in years. I code exclusively in Python where copilot is quite good. In my experience the comments of supposed “experienced” coders mad about copilot are either GPL proponents or people who work with mostly statically typed languages. Almost none of them have actually used Copilot and certainly didn’t use it long enough to ascertain a “good faith” criticism of it (so not just “it outputs subtle bugs throw it in the trash!”)

There’s also just a natural reaction to hate things poised to make you redundant ( probably should have considered this when becoming a coder, though).

Look at the most recently constructed nuclear plants in the USA, figure out who allowed that to happen, and and conspicuously give them public credit for their decisions.
Why would you have seen it done 100s of times. Are you a professional thief?
Reactors will not be forced to shut down, in the future. Instead, they will be shut down as unable to produce power at a competitive price. Those that continue operating will depend even more on taxpayer subsidies than they do now.

The money that will be spent on these new reactors would buy a hell of a lot more wind power than these nukes could produce. But money for renewables would not go into the pockets of right-wing blueblood Swedes, which seems to be what matters to the incoming government.

When the nukes are mothballed early, every kWh they ever produced will, instantly, have actually cost much more than had been reckoned, as the fixed costs are amortized over fewer total.

We can definitely go along most of the time. Bigger wars become more and more of a losing proposition with modern (conventional) weapons, and the complexity needed to run a prosperous society. Starting a war to grab riches (as it was in ancient times) usually does not work, and definitely does not work on larger scale.

The only relatively reasonable case for starting a war today is a war for independence, for liberation from someone else's strangling control. It does not always lead to prosperity as a result though; look at Eritrea, for instance.

Dunno. I've heard that phone accelometers can help detect earth quakes early to allow earlier warnings. Certainly that's a noisier signal than ECC errors.

Just aggregate the memory errors so you get a baseline for N machines and if that baseline goes to 10N then you likely had something interesting happen ... hopefully not WW3.
Companies are in the midst of an employee "turnover tsunami" with no signs of a slowdown. According to Fortune Magazine, 40% of the U.S. is considering quitting their jobs. This trend – coined the great resignation - creates instability in organizations. High employee turnover increases security risks, and companies are more vulnerable to attacks from human factors worldwide.
Only one prior discussion with comments:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1524201 - June 17, 2010 (25 comments, 2 dead)
A bit of context, the south area which this reactor is suggested to be built in has occasionally a 1000% electricity higher price from the northern regions. A big reason for this is that prices in the south is highly connected to markets that the south region is connected to, and those region are heavily importers of electricity creating a higher demand than there is available of cheap energy. For example, in order to address this there is a oil power plant operating basically 24/7 and does so very profitably even with high oil prices.
I'd recommend Lazard for cost info of both generation and storage

https://www.lazard.com/perspective/levelized-cost-of-energy-...

These are last year's numbers, but I don't expect that we will see much of a drop later this month when the new numbers come out, since demand is still way outpacing supply at the moment.

Additionally, we do not expect nuclear to decrease in cost. Throughout its entire history, it has not, and there's no tech on the horizon to expect a change. Nuclear is primarily a construction project, not manufacturing. Construction does not see the massive productivity gains that manufacturing does. In France and the US, one country with favorable regulatory conditions, and one with supposedly bad regulatory conditions, subsequent builds of the same reactor get more expensive, not less. South Korea managed to figure out how to decrease costs with subsequent reactors, but SK also sent many of their suppliers' execs to jail for corruption on certifications.

In contrast, solar, wind, and storage see massive innovation year after year, for decades. They are in a true tech curve, and have scaled to hundreds of GW/year of deployment.

Scaling nuclear to the point of deploying hundreds of GW/year is pretty difficult to imagine. We don't have the labor force to enable something like that, and couldn't build it in any reasonable time frame. Nuclear simply does not scale as well as the manufactured technologies of solar, wind, and storage.

TV naming is especially crazy. They have variants for everything from geopraphical location to specific sales events.

My TV lacks the ability to transmit audio via Bluetooth (no, I can't enable it, I think it actually lacks the module). Nobody could have told me that before I bought it, the marketing material and manuals all claim that it has it. There is precisely NO documentation for my specific model.

I'm starting to think that they're actively counting on people not completely testing their devices after getting them.
> Game theory (and several economic theories) suggest that relying on voluntary collective sacrifice is never going to work

It doesn't necessarily involve sacrifice though. Will your life be worse if you have 2 children rather than 3. Or even none instead of 2. For some people it will, but for many it won't. Will it be worse if your house is insulated and requires less energy to heat/cool? Will it be worse if we replace highways with public transit in cities? No, it'll likely actually better (even if you still need to drive, because they'll be less traffic).

It also doesn't need to be voluntary. We could mandate these changes, or strongly incentivise them through tax structures. Many countries have already started doing this in some limited cases.

We should certainly try to find cleaner ways to fuel consumption, because we're of course still going to need to consume a lot. But much like the easiest way (and often the only way) to make software faster is to make it do less work (while still achieving an equivalent or close enough to equivalent result), the easiest way to meet our energy needs in a clean way is to reduce our energy needs.
OK good point, but I'm guessing no one would be crazy enough to pick up a fuel rod and try and break it. I think you'd actually get burnt just from handling it.

In any case I was actually thinking about a foolish operator, not a malicious one.
