The Ox64 and Pi Zero W have another advantage over the Pico: USB 2.0.

I had a somewhat similar use case, bridging a USB stream to a TCP connection. Unfortunately, the device I was using had a non-compliant HS (12Mbit) USB implementation and in the end it was just simpler to use an Orange Pi Zero than mess around with the Pico. However, Linux boot times are atrocious, in the 30 second range.

This is where the Ox64 might shine, having USB 2.0, but also running a (presumably) minimal RTOS with boot times far faster than Debian.
Um, well-received consumer grade noise-canceling earbuds are typically $350/pair.

I have been down this rabbit hole (you can imagine why) and $1300/PAIR for auto-adjusting, personalized hearing-aid that can be had OTC is frinkin steal. That’s less than the cost of just being evaluated and measured if your insurance is less than stellar.
My insensitivity to what? "People assaulting african-american people in public and yelling n-word with hard r at them as an insult are not marketing-friendly material" is not an opinion or a position, it is a fact. Do you disagree with this and believe that this type of behavior is marketing-friendly? Is merely stating it in the relevant context insensitive? Because I didn't just throw it in there, it was directly relevant to my argument for why SparrowOS name was unrelated to TempleOS.

I feel like i am being gaslighted pretty hard right now , and the passive-aggressive "be better than that" isn't helping.
It became quickly very clear to me in undergrad that some people had this intuitive conceptual understanding of math and physics that I would simply never have, despite the effort (and I did make good grades). Some of these guys just blew me away with how smart they were. The more time I spent around people a lot smarter than me, the more I realized that some people's brains are just operating at a completely different level. I could have done physics, but I never would have been doing cutting edge theoretical research. I'm simply not smart enough. There is quite clearly a spectrum of mental capabilities from mentally challenged all the way to genius level. To believe this has no impact on what you're capable of achieving in a lifetime is quite naive.

And you would not have been doing me any favors by trying to convince me that I could have had a meaningful career pursuing theoretical physics research, something I'd never realistically achieve.
> Why are we allowing them on the internet?

It's damn hard to interact with the world without the internet these days. Want to coordinate with someone? Internet. Want to see when a store is open? Internet. Want to do your homework? Internet (sometimes; hello Google Classroom). Want to see what's playing at the cinema? Internet, mostly.

Age makes a difference, of course. But high school aged kids are going to be hard to keep off the internet.

Kids only internet isn't really feasible, even Yahoo killed Yahooligans, which used to live on its own cookie free domain to protect the privacy of kids. Anyway, some of the predators are kids too, so that doesn't really solve the issue. There's also the issue that it's probably easier for an adult to impersonate a child to get access than for a child to impersonate an adult to get access... but that's not hard either.

The Internet is a dangerous place, but it's also an important place to be. As children get older, we (parents, community, etc) need to teach them how to spot and avoid the dangers. Just like we do with other dangerous and important places.

Yes, I think it will soon be the largest library of the screenplays on the internet (if it isn't already), the idea is to find as many screenplays that are freely available online as possible, and add them to a library that is easy to search and to browse. And make it good looking, with nice UX.

The problem is self-replicating technological mechanisms undermine this hypothesis. A civilization which is being efficient, and as such Matroska brain's it's local star would still find value in launching Von Neumann explorer probes, since that's practically zero-cost at that resource-scale but extremely high reward: without reconnaissance you can't know if you should defend yourself or not.

Also even if it takes millions of years, having your autonomous machines cut up the local stellar bodies and ship materials back to you is an obvious move. You're immortal, so who cares how long it takes.

... and with that both sides of American politics should be covered.

My favourite wrench to throw in such gears has been that whatever affordances the current (maybe reasonable) government affords itself will be inherited by the next.

Whatever Joe Biden can do, the next Republican president can do, too and vice versa.

Or, to take a historic perspective: whatever rules and exist and whatever data (e.g. list of Jews) existed before the Nazis came to power were also available to the Nazis even if the original reason for these rules and data collections were well meaning and maybe even good in context.
Copilot is the largest disrespect to open source software I have ever seen. It is a derivative work of open source code and it is not released under the same license.

No. SAT is in fact fairly resistant to preparation. Not as much as some other tests, and not as much as the older versions of the SAT, but it's still largely an intelligence test.
I'd venture that the "guys ... operating at a completely different level" likely gained their intuitive understanding of math and physics from earlier educational training (formal or informal).

But this is really besides the point, because Seth says:

> The number of tasks in our culture that require someone who was born with off-the-charts talent is small indeed.

I think we can carve off advanced theoretical physics and pure mathematics as a tiny field where the 1/50,000 'genius' people are needed, and that leaves basically all the rest of society.
This isn't how lending in the cryptocurrency world works.

Lending protocols rely on overcollateralization of loans instead of contract law. If you want to borrow $100k, you would give over (say) $200k worth of some token that you didn't want to sell. In that example, if the value of that token dropped by 50%, the lender would sell all of your collateral to recoup their $100k, not take you to court or send you to a collection agency.

If on the other hand you eventually return the $100k, you would get your collateral back.
I agree about India. Pakistan doesn’t make sense besides being a nuclear power.
> Yeah it’s the long production time for nuclear that makes a big difference. Solar/wind/storage can roll out today and start producing energy tomorrow.

Ah yes. The magical immediate construction of dollars and windows. Blink, and it's there.

Wind and solar farms off similar capacity take about as much to complete as nuclear and often cost about as much.

Many western countries haven't built a nuclear power plant in ages, and are only ramping up (against unending pushback). China takes about 2 years to build a reactor.
> The Nobel Prize in Physics was just given to three people who contributed to proving that hidden variables are pretty much ruled out.

I assume you read the part in the article where he talked about that result and Bell's Theorem and the extra assumption in that theorem which is where he believes the loophole lies.

To quote:

> That is to say, Bell’s Theorem assumes counterfactual quantum measurements are necessarily consistent with the laws of physics. This is the assumption that physicists don’t like to think might be wrong. If these counterfactual worlds turn out to be inconsistent with the laws of physics, then our intuitive ideas about causality will also turn out to be wrong.

> Chaos theory provides a simple way to understand situations where counterfactual worlds are indeed inconsistent with the laws of physics.

It's an interesting idea and not one that can be dismissed as easily as you seem to think.
In my experience, no. This is the tapas culture typical in some areas of Spain. If they are brought to you without discussion, they are complimentary — you only pay for the drink whether you eat any or not. The only way to know if you’ll receive something typically is to ask and there is no harm or insult in specifying dietary restrictions, though they may just bring bread or olives if you’re on a strict diet. Other regions offer them for a cost and that will be clearly marked on a menu. And even in regions that do provide them gratis, there can even be nuance based on what kind of beverage is ordered.

Max Bohr explained the uncertainty principle in his Nobel laureate speech quite well (and in nontechnical terms) - even though it might be interpreted as some law today, it definitely began as a practical obstacle.

Also, the hidden variable theories seem to be about practicality; for all intents and purposes, because it would be practically impossible to know that such hidden variables exist, they are deemed as non-existent.

I'm hoping I won't get into too much trouble, since:

- The intention of this library is to be a free educational resource for screenwriters, it's just a hobby project that I'm not making any money off of.

- I'm simply collecting and organizing the screenplays that are freely available online already (just with a nicer UI/UX, and with more convenient searching/sorting/filtering functionality).

- On the about page I have left an email people can use to submit a takedown request, if they want to remove their screenplay from the library.

I'm not a lawyer, but I'm hoping this is enough to qualify for "fair use", or something like that.

Right, but what if you commission an artist to create a work similar to an already existing piece of art and the artist decides that the most efficient way to do that is to just place the original piece of art in a photocopier, crops out the copyright notice and original artist's signature, and sells you the resulting print?

I think superdeterminism doesn't need to conspire to affect your choices (other than asserting they are deterministic, but it doesn't need to guide away from any particular choices in a conspiracy). It just needs to simulate both sides together on both side to know whether the measurements should correlate or not (say both sides have hidden state that resimulates the entire universe to see which measurement the other side would choose, this gets around it for Kochen-Specker/Conway freewill theorem at least, I'm not sure about for Bell's).

As long as everything was in causal contact at the start of the big bang, it can let every particle have machinery inside that resimulates everything else to decide whether a given measurements randomness is correlated with another's, without invoking non-locality. With non-locality allowed it can just do it superliminally with threads of entanglement. Both are equivalent unless something can leak out of the resimulation other than how correlated a measurement should be with another, xor if info can be sent through entanglement other than the degree of correlation, or if the numbers turn out to be truely random or at least not be algorithmically random, like maybe Chaitin's constant.

My father got his hearing aids about two months ago. It cost $4,000 plus the audiologist’s fees, plus the time to go there to be fitted and have some adjustments. He’s still adjusting but he can hear my daughter when she talks to him and they’ve improved his quality of life in meaningful ways.

I think there’s a lot to be said for lowering the barrier of entry for hearing aids, as the cost and effort to find the right audiologist and complete the purchase was daunting. But for my dad, an 85-year old man who’s barely getting by with his iPhone 8, the traditional audiologist path has worked out very well for him. I doubt that shopping for OTC hearing aids and going through the setup experience by himself (or, more likely, being dragged along by me) would have been better. Almost more importantly, his audiologist has been a gentle, calming, reassuring resource to help him through the challenging process of adapting to them.

But the experience was initially stressful and only happened because I found his audiologist and essentially blackmailed him into doing it. The cost was upsetting to him, our family forced him to accept our help as a birthday gift. I think we lucked out with our audiologist and I’ve read plenty of reviews from people like my father who wind up working with the wrong professionals, getting the wrong equipment, and feeling like they threw away thousands of dollars. In fact, my father was one of them: he secretly embarked on this journey once about two years ago and spent $4000 on a bad device sold by a cold professional.

So, that is all to say: none of this is easy. It seems my own father has experienced the best and worst of the traditional hearing aid industry. But I think the OTC approach could have its own set of pitfalls, especially for an older population that might not be comfortable with technology. Ultimately, the competition within the market will be good for consumers. I’m interested to see how the service side of the industry evolves.
Alright. Think of it a different way.

I give you the nuclear heat source up front for free. Brand new AP1000 appears up to the second cooling loop by magic.

Steam turbines sans the emission control equipment are about $3k/kWe

Fuel rods are $10-20/MWh. Take it at a constant $10 for an AP1000 (costs of uranium and SWUs go up, but fuel efficiency and fabrication improves at about the same rate).

Decomissioning is underfunded at $10/MWh but we'll pretend this is enough

O&M costs for a steam turbine sans fuel is $10/MWh

Demonstrate how nuclear makes sense with these constraints vs wind at $2000/kW net or solar at $2500/kW net while the gas turbines still run.

Demonstrate how nuclear makes sense vs. Projected costs of pv + wind + h2 + batteries.
Sure, supply and demand.

I largely agree with the many angles here but I don't see it as a single "build it and they will come" issue.

I don't think it is there yet but are their rules about how much of the market can be owned by a single entity?

Libraries include creating a new DID, generating keys and anchoring your DID on the Bitcoin blockchain.

I saw Leopoldstadt recently, and left with many of the same mixed thoughts as the author. Particularly, I thought that the interconnections between the two families muddled the plot to an extent that was difficult to follow; I assume Stoppard's intent was in there, but the format wasn't one I could appreciate.

The self-insert character ("Leonard") was also challenging: Stoppard has every right to write a play about a Jew who doesn't discover until adulthood that his family fled the Holocaust. But the character's own warped victimization, coupled with undercurrents of Zionism (an anachronism, for secular and integrated Jews in prewar Vienna) gives the impression that Stoppard blames the characters for their own assimilation, gullibility (as characterized) and lack of hindsight.
