> x0 can also happen due to equipment failure

Is trivially true, and applies to everything. It's not really worth bothering to mention because everything else also sufferers this.

> The problem with the global grid is that it would need to be similarly overprovisioned so that during low-probability failure scenarios the few remaining power nodes could supply the entire thing.

The need to over-provision a grid is obvious, but…

> 10x overprovisioning here looks a lot more expensive.

First: Why do that by a factor of x10? Best redundancy here is geographical diversity rather than a fatter… I was going to say "cable", but it is (or collectively, they are) the order of a few square meters cross section and that feels wrong as a name. But that thing is best spread out, not kept singular and made wider, whatever you call it.

Second: Even x10, the main limit is "that's a lot of stuff to mine, how do we reorganise the miners from coal and oil to metals" rather than the $ cost — while "a trillion" of anything is a lot for one person to contemplate, compared to the cost of what is currently dug up and then set on fire to provide the same power, it's quite cheap.

If you don't own or didn't use a torque wrench to tighten the connections and this was awhile ago, I would go and re-torque them. Properly connecting these types of connections requires more technique than "give it five ugga duggas and it'll never move." Not saying that's what you did, but still, re-check :)
It's not a clear winner. "Pray and delay" is a common strategy for commercial properties, because commercial mortgages allow you to defer payments.
v4l2 came out in 2001. At that point every TV tuner card supported full framerate capture at 768x576/720x480 for over >3 years already. Its only ~12MB/s and cards supported bus mastering, the only problem was storage and CPU power for realtime encoding.

I've done both, and I have been working from home for the last four years, but I don't think it's that clear cut. Another way to put it: "why use part of your home for work space, and pay for your worktime utilities, when your employer should pay for that?"

A claim that is easily refuted. Send 1000 DAI to an individual and they can now hold a USD pegged asset non custodially, without a USD bank account, and transfer any amount to other individuals.

Not any more lol
Been using my iPad pro 2017 12.9 since 2015. It's basically my email/web/books/video/social device, but also can do work stuff in a pinch. It's not ideal for work, but it's more practical than my 12 mini if I need to do emergency stuff.

I also use it for presentations, sketch out designs and architecture, etc, but it's harder to clean up documents on the iPad because the editing on it is awkward compared do a laptop. For certain things diction works, but just copying and pasting a couple of rows in excel (or any spreadsheet like thing) is just really bad.

That said, the tool you have with you is the best tool, and it's really portable. It's 7 years old at this point and still going strong. It won't use a bunch of the new features in 16, but since I don't use those anyway I don't care.

If you want to test out an iPad, pick up a 1st or 2nd gen iPad Pro. I have three of them around the house (including mine) and the other two get used all the time for video/games/browsing.

> never outsource your core competency

I chose a middle-of-the-road approach: the schools can teach them socialization skills that I can't, but I can be their full-time tutor when tests come along. That does mean you'll need to spend time re-acquainting yourself with long-forgotten high-school algebra, though.

Story time, kind of related to the title but you may find it amusing.

I had an older Russian teacher, heavy accent, knew his stuff fairly well, worked for few big Corps. He was teaching data structures. We had this fairly attractive girl in our class, 30 guys and I think 2-3 girls. There was this guy, let's call him "Bob". Bob was sitting next to that girl. That girl has used Bob for most of her homeworks and quizzes. Bob was really into her, it wasn't mutual though. Then, the midterm came. She was in trouble, as she had barely done any work and she had 0 understanding of material. Well, after Bob finished his midterm, they switched papers. Bob changed some variable names, and according to him added a few small mistakes.

2 weeks later Bob got a 'C' and the girl got an 'A'. Bob, loudly said "FUCK" in class and we all were cracking up. Teacher was a bit spooked too, since everyone was whispering about it. Bob stopped talking to her. I think she stopped attending the class. I am honestly not sure if anyone went to the dept. head, as the behavior between the teacher, girl and bob got really awkward.

I hope Bob is doing well, he was nice just a bit naive.
And what is the probability that out of the thousands of viruses we identify the exact one that mutates in the exact manner as researches induce in the lab? The possible mutations a virus could take are astronomical, and conditions in a lab using humanized mice models are not something that would ever happen in the wild. Efforts are better spent on surveillance not prediction! https://media.nature.com/original/magazine-assets/d41586-018...
> Except substitute “down the street” with “30 km away on the other side of a river”, and notice that everybody who got sick initially was next to the market, none of them anywhere near the lab.
> So the lab-leak hypothesis is: this virus created at the lab accidentally escaped to someone who subsequently only infected people on the other side of town.

But this isn't necessarily how it works, at all.

The Wuhan market is one of Wuhan's most population-dense areas, in close proximity to three hospitals where the first cases were identified, and was therefore the concentration for infection-tracing.

In other words, the dataset for early cases was based on a belief that the market was where the infection was spreading, rather than the location of a spreading event that came from elsewhere in the city. Even pneumonia cases that were reported were only post-hoc assigned as probably covid if they were in close proximity to the market.
Right but I can ask the same/similar question. Why would they have particle physics like we do? There are several degrees of freedom in existing mathematical theories of physics and I don't think there is a good reason to expect that electrons would be re-discovered in another encoding of physics by an alien civilization. The entirety of particle physics is contingent on a bunch of mathematical abstractions (e.g. group theory) so then the argument becomes that these abstractions are not contingent discoveries which then fixes the entire mathematical edifice to be the same across all alien life and civilizations.

It's an interesting thought exercise but I don't think there is any reason to expect mathematics to be the same across all potential life in the universe. Human mathematics is adapted to human evolutionary contingencies and the same would be true for alien mathematics, physics, and engineering. By definition of "alien" their mathematics would be alien to us and even if there were commonalities they would be very hard to uncover.

I was just thinking this myself. I have the 12.9" 2018 iPad Pro and was considering pulling the trigger on this new iPad Pro announced today. But I really have no reason to, my current one runs perfectly and I've even got the floating keyboard case which is backwards compatible with it. It's replaced my laptop entirely, instead I just ssh into my Mac at home and use vim if I feel like writing some code on the road or from bed.

Honestly have no complaints with this 2018 model, it's one of my favorite pieces of hardware I've ever owned and in fact is what introduced me to the Apple ecosystem (where I'm now fully submersed) in the first place.
Modern WWAN might be a bit of a nightmare. I'm not super familiar with recent efforts in the space, but if Apple wanted to knock this out of the park, they'd need two things:

- Unlimited data plans, preferably at a non-insane price (sub $50-month would be nice)

- Both 4G LTE and 5G connectivity. Not just one or the other.

Both of these seem technically possible, but I'd assume they'd be incredibly difficult to pull-off from a business negotiation perspective.
I've never once noticed slowness in connecting as bothering me at all. Are you connecting to new Wi-Fi networks hundreds of times a day or something? My iPad just... stays connected to the networks it knows.

And I believe that higher bandwidth is the solution to better reliability and latency when you've got lots of devices sharing the same router, or other interference. Isn't that how digital radio works?
The camera on the new non-Pro iPad has moved from the side to the top though. Not sure why the inconsistency between models.

> Throwing shade is never a productive conversation.

a) Says the person who just finished saying "Shamans can't have a medical error, or any error, since they don't do anything, they are scam artists and they know it"

b) "is productive" is yet another claim, and once again I disagree (it is a subjective claim after all, though it may appear objective depending on the frame of reference on is viewing from) - this conversation offers great insight into the behavior of the human mind in general, and the behavior of (an instance of) a mind "captured" by Scientific Materialist Fundamentalism in particular (speaking of "throwing shade", amirite?). I would say that if you observe the behavior of religious fundamentalist compared to what you have demonstrated here, from a perspective of higher abstraction, the two thinking styles are eerily similar (specifically: lack of curiosity about what is true, inability to substantiate ones claims, etc).

> I never claimed to be omniscient, I offered my piece.

Your claim requires omniscient knowledge.

For example:

"Shamans can't have a medical error, or any error, since they don't do anything, they are scam artists and they know it"

Since you have not used qualifying terms to constrain your set, you are thus making an assertion about ALL shamans.

There is not database of all shamans, and even if there was, it could not possibly contain an accurate representation of the entirety of the behavior of each shaman. Thus, you are speculating, necessarily.

One might think that a "scientific thinker" (or, an arbitrary user on Hacker News) would immediately realize the fundamental logical flaw in such a claim, but as the saying goes: "Reality is not only stranger than we imagine, but stranger than we CAN imagine".

Here I will try an experimental technique: are you able to, within your mind, take a strictly third person perspective on this conversation...can you imagine yourself rising into the air, and the higher you go your mental "connection" to this reality (and yourself as a person living within that reality) gradually separates, until eventually you reach an altitude where you no longer have any connection to yourself or this conversation...as if you had come upon it randomly, rather than being an active participant in it. From this perspective, are you able to see and appreciate the substantial silliness, "the folly of humans" you might say, that is going on here? And thinking more broadly: is this phenomenon not true of a substantial majority of arguments that take place on this planet?

Or another we of putting it might be: do you think it is possible that humanity, on Planet Earth in the year 2022, might be "doing it wrong", at least to a "substantial" degree?
Not all office space is amenable to residential conversion, since the floor area to exterior wall ratio is often much too high for an apartment building (windowless offices are fine, windowless living rooms, not so much).

An office/apartment hybrid might work. I could imagine dividing the building, with offices in the inner core and apartments surrounding the core. The core and surrounding apartments would be totally separated, with separate lobbies and elevators. Although the offices would be totally windowless hellscapes, at least the apartments would have lots of light.

Monocultures of any kind are always fragile, you need diversity to have a resilient ecosystem. These projects should benefit from an understanding of permaculture, which is a discipline that aims to create the right conditions for healthy systems. Everything from succession (pioneer leguminous species that can fix nitrogen and improve soil, slowly replaced by other species), trying to slow down and catch water where it falls to prevent soil erosion and runoff and much more. I've heard (unsubstantiated) claims that initiatives in China have already started to take these into account and have succeeded where other monoculture forests failed.

A side effect is that you can end up with productive species. Imagine forests where many trees bear fruits, others have acorns that pigs can feed on, fruit vines and understory herbs that animals can graze on, large lakes with edible fish. This is the future I'd be excited for and it's all currently possible with the right policies.

Slightly different approach, but DMOZ – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DMOZ – was a reasonably big deal back in the day. Imagine Wikipedia but if it were a Yahoo style site directory.

My understanding, is it wasn't a census, but just info at local town halls.

It almost beggars belief to have to say that of course the vaccine testing is on efficacy of infection prevention, not transmissibility. But wouldn't you know it? The less likely you are to get infected and the faster your body clears the virus, the less the virus is or can be transmitted. Yes, peak viral load for infections that do "breakthrough" may be the same as unvaccinated. That's not a smoking gun.

There is a lot of sinister stuff happening in our world, a lot of coordinated efforts against labor and the working class. Tying that narrative to a conspiracies about COVID vaccines rightly nudges you into conspiracy theorist territory.

There's no real limit to the supply of gifs on the internet, and yet Meta spent $600m on a website hosting third party gifs that made almost zero revenue. I don't think they were going to get very far with arguments that nobody cares about gifs...

One the other hand, the owner of Giphy absolutely does get to limit which websites get to continue displaying the gifs that several years' of their user-generated content backlinked to Giphy.com

Not surprising that some bodies think the party making that decision shouldn't be Meta.
From what I've seen, text. I've heard a lot of younger folks call gifs "cringe". It seems like a dead trend, even millennials I know have mostly stopped using them.
I wanted the "paper feel", which gives the screen a bit of roughness so it feels like writing on paper rather than glass. I went with this brand on Amazon and have been very happy with it:

I bought it 18 months ago and still haven't needed to replace it. I can clean it as easily as the bare screen.

These types of layers add a very tiny amount of color distortion, so I guess not recommended if you do professional graphics work on the thing.
Civ VI is pretty CPU intensive.
Not in the initial release. They pulled external display support from Stage Manager in later betas to get it working on older models with the A12X and A12Z instead of only the M1 and newer.

External display support is supposed to come back in an update later this year. Presumably that part will still require an M1 or newer processor.

It's not Mozilla that learns about your IP address, it's all the hops between you and Mozilla. An encrypted HTTP request typially contains the following info:

- source OS (through TCP fingerprints)

- destination IP:port

Now you have to consider where your packets may be diverted and who might want to do what with them.

Mozilla's problem is they have been grasping for an answer to "why should you use Firefox over Chrome?" that actually resonates with people for over a decade. The product is fine, Firefox is a perfectly capable browser. Convincing people to use it is a soft-skills problem because the only reason to use Firefox is because you like Mozilla more than you like Google which is entirely driven by Mozilla having good-feels activism mindshare and getting in being in the news cycle.

Lots of messed up things with Austin real estate, but office spaces are not this empty. In fact I have heard that it is one of the less empty metro areas right now, in terms of office space. There also seems to be a lot of traffic downtown, which is annoying but means someone must be working/living there.

But again, lots of messed up things in the real estate market of Austin generally; the residential market has essentially frozen up, with sellers unwilling to admit how much things have dropped, and the buyers unwilling to pay for houses they know aren't going to be worth that much in a year's time or less.

Yet "what is implied by a given set of axioms" is the most common definition of "what's true" in mathematics. Therefore, an alien culture using completely different axioms and rules could arrive to an extremely alien math.
