I did watch the video. The founder interviewed said much the same thing: this is not novel tech, they're combining existing (proven) tech in a new way.

Which is great! I didn't say it wasn't. But the title and first half of the video,and half of the comments here, make it sound like it's a replacement for electrical batteries, which it isn't.

For example, video compares this to gravitational storage (pumping water back up for hydro plants) which makes no sense, as you don't get electricity back out of this.

So, yes, clever use of tech. The video is fanboyism to the 11th and instead of allowing the tech to stand on it's own two feet, goes very close to actually be misinformative.
This article is so bad on so many levels. Did he pay attention to Mad Men at all? The whole point of the show is that Don Draper is not acting like an adult at the beginning of the series. He is impulsive and selfish and has to learn to be a better person who cares about the needs of others.

Dr. Drew is a clown and I shouldn't waste any part of my life responding to anything he says but I will say this; if you think "asserting your authority" and shutting other people down is acting like an adult, you are the one who has some maturing to do emotionally and intellectually regardless of your biological age.

National Archives calls out Trump for lying about George Bush storing docs
Tbh I don't have the experience to give advice or reviews.

That said, check out Nats.io. It's basically just a messaging system but it's beautifully abstracted, horizontally scalable and runs locally from a small binary. It largely removes the need for much middleware like load balancers. They've also recently added persistence features for streams and KV stores.

It doesn't solve every problem but I do think a message system is a very good core abstraction to build other things on top of.
They also care about the effects of drug abuse. Why can't we go back to forcing young people to submit and doing lines of coke
The article says the bribe was for $22,500. Some how I am both insulted and encouraged by how low that amount is. I didn’t realize that my local PTA could abolish No Child Left Behind standardized testing for a few $100 bribes and a coupon to the local salad bar!

This is like a version of Oregon Trail except real-time, and no hunting.

Overall, I like it.

I do wish it had the ability to set the pace to "grueling".
I like this argument because using a framework, or a library, implies that it might be established and that there’s already a lot of resources, docs, and stackoverflow question on it. Not using a framework most often means no doc.
While I feel the same way about local dev, I think the industry as a whole is indifferent.

Every place I've worked that's adopted into AWS/Azure gave up on running apps locally. And everything becomes harder because of it.

And now there's a push to not even run your editor locally - the next trend is your whole development experience happening in the browser connected to a cloud dev environment.

There is a camera roll "application" that fills with photos taken nearby as you progress. I personally find it more intriguing than traditional street view services (e.g. google) as it captures the country in any condition whether it's snow or rain, day or night, highway or a dirt road.
The github repo [1] is wildly out of date, and it probably won't even run on other peoples systems at the moment as one of my experiments with it is to keep the editor itself as tiny as possible and leverage other tools for as much as possible. As such, it relies on bspwm for multi-window support, and on rofi for file-selection, theme selection etc., and helper scripts not in the repo. It's currently smaller than my Emacs config used to be...

More so than the editor, which I'm kinda treating as my config more than a finished app, I'm gradually splitting functionality into a bunch of gems so that the editor itself will feel even more like just configuration...

Here's another screenshot [2] showing part of the integration with Rouge for syntax-highlighting, and showing how it's rendering comments by recursing into Rouge's Markdown mode, which again recurses into Rouge's Ruby mode. The "LayeredLexer" class it shows is used to enable that.

EDIT: It's my main editor, by the way, and it persists open buffers, and shares them between the user interfaces using Drb. Currently I have 1969 buffers open...

This incorrect. The supply(data) and demand(distribution channel) are so entrenched the customers and end users will mostly laugh at you for even offering. You want competitors to laugh, not customers.

It depends what you are trying to write. But I’ve seen people complain about the lack of generics in Golang, and I’ve also seen really great cryptography code in Golang (TLS implementations, etc.)

I wouldn’t write a compiler in Golang though.
Traditional *nix and BSD systems use swap partitions for crashdumps, so giant swap partitions made sense before those systems supported mini dumps. Admins that grew up with those systems are used to the "2xram" rule of thumb.

I just yesterday had to re-partition a FreeBSD kernel test box with 256GB of RAM and a 2GB swap partition because I desperately needed a crashdump and the mini dump would have been 7GB.
Yeah I was there. It was great because it was, apparently, impossibly cheap. Then they decided to take it out of beta and jack the prices. People who were spending $10/mo suddenly had $1000/mo bill.

I'm confused the decision would be based on latency, which is somewhat lagging. Queue length would seem more efficient, since it's leading.

This sounds better to me than EasyEDA since I don’t want to be _stuck_ with JLCPCB (though a friend uses them and I’ve really only heard good things about them, so I’ll probably use them for my next project anyway…)

Does EasyEDA lock you into JLCPCB? I don’t have anything against partnering with fab houses since it can really help accelerate the project, but I feel a little weird about using something that’s so deeply tied to another product that I “don’t need.”

I feel like I should give EasyEDA a chance though either way, because it can’t be worse than Fritzing.
Theory of constraints is different from local WIP limits, though. (The latter are more efficient.)
> And do you have any idea how to eradicate the cancer of Putin long term?

I do actually, this particular cancer will certainly not last longer than about 20 more years, probably even significantly less if the news reports are accurate. Keep the patient alive, this cancer goes away in time.

If the problem is a single man with an already limited lifespan, why not wait it out? Why kill the patient to cure a temporary cancer?

Seems relevant to the difficulty in investigating and getting any sort of justice.
I think persons stop being persons the moment they die in most countries.

However, I expect that the moment it becomes common knowledge or they tell you upfront about it, courts would rule living people who consider donating their body to science would be discriminated against.

Given that, I would think keeping it 100% a secret wouldn’t work, either, as keeping crimes/misdemeanors secret never makes them legal.

Hmm, good idea. Wonder why a couple of the redundant-with-inversion ones made it in and others didn’t. Could be some historical reason, could be just “we had a few spots left over in the block of 32”. Can’t be bothered looking it up.

Certainly do this rather than using U+1FB87. SGR 7 to reverse colours and SGR 27 to cancel reverse, hopefully it’s pretty universally supported by now. I definitely expect it to be better supported than U+1FB87 in the chosen font.
That is partially true, but it misses 2 important factors:

1. Accommodating larger people usually is just fundamentally more expensive. Space costs money. I mean, airplane seats are famously narrow, and while yes, it's a deliberate chose, if airplane seats were considerably wider it would make airlines unprofitable. I'm not saying that's a big reason here (designing a bigger table isn't that much in the grand scheme of things), but it's not just deciding between two equally valid choices.

2. A bigger reason in this case, though, which is pointed out in the article, is that most of these bodies are used for dissection and training. Dissecting an obese body, if doing it for the purpose of anatomical study, is much, much more difficult.
Trust Me, I'm Lying by Ryan Holiday talks a bunch about how much of outrage about movies and music has actually been intentionally manufactured by guerilla marketers in order to promote the product to edgy teens wanting to purchase a controversial product that their stuffy conservative parents hate.

I wouldn't be completely shocked if some of the initial outrage about Jihad Rehab was triggered by a shrewd marketer, similarly how marketers would tip off the Tucker Max movie screenings to feminist organizations around campuses in the hopes that they would call for a cancellation.

Doubt we'll ever see the evidence for that though.
Kinda difficult to explain as I dropped emacs due to issues with it on Windows despite enjoying org-mode.

The key thing is, org-mode treats data/text as a tree graph programmatically, you move through headings, and properties can be attached to those.

So a property for a deadline time can be added, and parsed, so you can get a list of todos/schedule showing the headline, and being able to jump to it.

Your api access targets these "nodes", so you are adding under "journal" rather than line 674 when using the template feature to quickly add entries.

emacs has ridiculous levels of customisation that let this data structure do basically what you want or need with some scripting.

"Middle-class-ness" in this context shouldn't be the primary goal, because it's only a proxy for "have enough time and space to care." I assure you, poor people care about the environment, but we've structured our society to prevent the working poor from having enough free time and energy to advocate for things like the environment. Poor people generally don't even have enough time and energy to advocate for themselves for things like affordable housing and the end of food deserts.

Instead of just being like "lets burn more carbon to generate wealth first," we should skip the middle steps and go directly to giving people of all classes, especially the working poor that make up the majority of the human race, a voice and access to voting rights. Give the lower economic classes a larger voice in government and I think you'd be surprised how many would vote for things like investment in clean energy.

Respectfully, saying that you have to be rich enough to have time to care is missing the forest for the trees.
>That claim lasted a couple months at most, as more data came in about how it was primarily spread by aerosols in the air rather than snot on door knobs they changed their policy, that's how science work

I think you should read the post you were replying to. The post says they messed up at the beginning of pandemic. They never claimed it was long term.

You seem to be agreeing so I am not sure what your point even is.

Also, if they don't know something they should be claiming it is a fact when it comes to medical/scientific issues. Maybe do some research before making the claim. If somebody asks about masks then say we are looking into it.

>and how fox news doesn't work.

I don't know what Fox is saying, but if they say the government messed up on masks and that masks don't prevent all transmission (we were also told by the government if we just masked the pandemic would be over) then they are accurate.
Hey you are forgetting how the concern for the millennials ended all the nimbyist housing policy in the states, finally letting the younger generations get a meaningful foothold in the housing market.

Sounds awesome if they can pull it off. I'd love to have the interurban back in the USA. Since they already got one, this looks doable.
So many problems with this article.

1. The article title appears, at least to me, to contradict its subtitle.

2. The article talks about adults, but then seems to define adults as aging baby boomers, which at this point are generally considered elderly and mostly are out of work.

As somebody hardly middle-aged (barely not a millennial) with adult children perhaps my perspective is unique. In my career over the past few years I have had the frequent pleasure of working with young adults with a thirst of learning and eager to listen and expand their perspectives, and for these talented young adults I will happily make as much time as they want for learning. Young people generally, though, I really can't be bothered to impart any guidance at all. I really don't care if they are living in squalor of ignorance and our society is doomed to destruction when handed over to that next generation, and I didn't used to think this way. Most people my age I know think the same way.

The reason why my perspective is shaped in this way is because of the pervasiveness of expertise in young people. I say that tongue in cheek. I have encountered many occasions, both online and in the real world, of young people wanting to prove their knowledge dominance like its some kind of battle. Winning, it seems, is critically important to their self-esteem more than food or finance. It is not worth it to spend my time with helpful guidance, that anybody can easily discard without issue or conflict, to people who want to use the opportunity as ammunition for a fight.

Don't cast pearls before swine..

This pitting of one generation against another is silly. I'm old (late 70's) and I care about what everybody thinks, young or old. The various crises and problems we face affect everybody, and we all need to work together as best we can to help solve them.

Certainly there are some people who are selfish and exclusive, and like to discriminate against one group or another, whether based on age, class, sex, race, nationality, or whatever. Those people are idiots. If the human race destroys itself, it will be because of tribalism.

The rigid hierarchical society based on age is literally what created all the prosperity that surrounds you. Silicon Valley in its heyday the 1970s and 1980s was the product of people who grew up in the 1950s.

Society is now transitioning to being run by millennials, the first generation to be raised by parents who wanted to be their friends instead of authority figures. How’s that working out? As far as I can tell it’s all going off the rails.

> MS also supports direct QUIC uses on Xbox Series consoles

This is so fucking ridiculous. Tried writing my first android app a few months ago, and for reasons wanted to do QUIC. I was absolutely sure this was going to be a no-brainer, as Google more or less being the inventor of it, or at least a very strong proponent, must have made quic a first class citizen of Android and its SDK years ago now. I mean, all their apps use it. Imagine how much in disbelief I was when I learned there is nothing available, except a library that wraps Chrome's network engine and let's you use http3 over quic, but not quic directly. You'd have to fiddle with using a 3rd party native lib and some bindings and whatnot, so I just deleted Android studio and went for a walk. Yes I'm still bitter.
Given two communities, one who is intentionally trying to be less wrong, one that is not — they will both feel like they are less wrong than the other, but one will actually be less wrong.

Scientific community generally speaking compared to non-scientific communities would not only be an example of this, but also shows the benefits of such practices, especially over extended durations.
What have been some highlights for you? This is something that's struck me in passing a couple of times as a potentially interesting kind of project.
I was having a conversation with someone around my age about remote work and young workers. I made the comment that I couldn't have imagined graduating from school and not having an office to go into--though I'd have appreciated an office with more flexibility around commuting.

My friend's response--which I certainly agree with--is that in addition to the changes in technology (I didn't even have non-internal email and that was fairly advanced for the time) younger people are just a lot more used to living to a significant degree in a digital environment than we were.

And, yes, as a child I lived in a fairly rural environment without neighbors so didn't really do much in the way of socializing outside of school.
Wow, this is more entertaining than I expected. Check the comments to see the highlight moment timestamps!
Thanks, but what I was after was the OPs actual experience. What's "his" (or any other actual individuals) reason to use one or the other.

Nothing more mature than living your life in a drunken stupor, ignoring your family, jumping from one adulterous relationship to another, occasionally disappearing for weeks from your job without telling anyone, and refusing to truthfully examine why you behave like this.
