It's not really a very equal comparison to compare something that supports dynamic updates and which doesn't.

The neat thing about asbestos is it doesn't burn. That being said, the fumes from a fire are toxic without the asbestos so it's not exactly like it's making it more dangerous. (perhaps cleanup is what you're referring to?)

> or floods

Getting asbestos wet keeps it from Aerosolization. In fact, it's recommended to do that anyways if you are removing asbestos. (though, water isn't good enough to make it completely safe, it's better than nothing). [1]

> The reason it's regulated/nearly banned is because the default way we treat materials is that they are assumed safe until data shows otherwise, and we obviously can't treat asbestos as a default material.

The reason it's regulated/nearly banned is because the asbestos industry hid the dangers of it and got exposed in a very public way which generated heavy public outcry. We treat it like this not because it's rational, but because of public outrage. Asbestos has become synonymous with unsafe, no questions asked. [2]

Mercury and lead have similar more well known public health problems, yet purchasing CFLs and lead water pipes remain everywhere. Why? because there's not nearly the same level of outrage.

As opposed to not transferring the cost when they're forced to use glass bottles or whatever? Plastic is used because it's cheap. Switching to alternatives would undoubtedly cost more money.

>We have a CRV tax for each bottle/can here in California, and as far as I can tell, it has no affect on consumer behavior.

Maybe this says something about the effectiveness of plastic bottles? If consumers/companies are still choosing plastic bottles even though they have to pay the disposal costs, maybe this means that plastic bottles are better as a whole and we shouldn't be trying to force a switch to alternatives?

That's funny because UC Davis also publishes an annual report for olives, like they do for all other crops, which conclusively demonstrates that nobody can, and nobody has, ever made a profit growing olives in California. So they're boosters on the one hand and realists on the other.

If images target WASM then you should be able to run on them on any platform

I dont think that is what it does.
As someone who's been in the industry since the late 80s, that's certainly a perception that some people hold and certainly a factor in why I left my last position after 11 years at the same company (well, several acquisitions along the way.) At some point folks consider a long tenure a negative when you look for your next position and you're best off leaving before that happens.

If the hardware you've got sitting around is a proper high-precision GPS system like a Trimble R2 or suchlike, the normal practice would be to use the data logging features built into it.

But are you sure the GPS in your phone isn't good enough to map the location of benches? I've seen phones get within a meter or so, under good conditions - more than sufficient to get someone close enough to see a bench.
Except that holding Monero is of rather less clear value. Sure, the ability to take $100, turn it into Monero, and turn it back into almost $100 that cannot be trivially traced to the original $100 is of some value. But this value is there for people who have no particular interest in Monero-the—asset. They want Monero-the-mixer.

If I put $100 into Monero and hold it, I’m betting that Monero is still worth something in the future. That’s a risky bet. For example, the Treasury department could sanction Monero. Or the next great mixer could come along and supplant Monero, making my old Monero mostly useless.
If you think the answer is a blockchain, you are asking the wrong question.

I'm still confused. This is the big thing I'm not really getting:

> which allows you to build both traditional container apps, as well as Wasm apps

I can already do that. Using Rust for the sake of example: `cargo build` can give me a WASM binary, and `docker build` can give me a container. Is Docker+WASM going to replace `cargo build`? Or is it going to wrap the WASM binary produced by cargo in another layer of abstraction? If the latter, how is this new layer of abstraction different from just using one of the WasmEdge docker containers [0]?

I'm not trying to be combative, I'm just sincerely confused at what problem this technical preview is intended to solve.

> I wonder where the opposite fact that I hear on the internet that most olive oil is adulterated comes from.

I think it might come from conflating two different issues. Most EVOO in the US is "legit" - it actually is EVOO, although there are exceptions. On the other hand, a whole bunch of EVOO is "low quality", or more precisely, rancid. I've even heard that it's so common that Americans have come to prefer the taste of rancid olive oil over fresh.

Here's an article on FiveThirtyEight that explains the connection between the two problems:

> You may have heard by now that the olive oil in your kitchen cupboard may be an impostor. After a 2010 report found that 69 percent of imported olive oil in the U.S. failed to meet international standards, thousands of news stories were published, often incorrectly describing the presence of “fake” olive oils in grocery stores. ... The hysteria recently led Congress to assign a new job to the the Food and Drug Administration: sampling imported olive oil to see whether it’s adulterated or fraudulently labeled. ... But there’s something that not even the mighty FDA can fix: most of us don’t know the difference between a high- and low-quality olive oil.

> Though there’s a long history of scandal in the olive oil world, the problem in the U.S. for consumers is less about oil that isn’t made from olives, and more about olive oil that doesn’t meet the quality standards declared on its label. But since most people in the U.S. can’t tell fusty and musty from pungent and fruity, low-quality olive oil masquerading as extra virgin is a hard problem to fix. ... “We call the U.S. the world’s dumping ground for rancid and defective olive oil. We don’t know the difference,” said Sue Langstaff ... Studies have shown that even frequent olive oil consumers in the U.S. don’t know what the extra virgin or cold pressed designations mean, let alone have the ability to taste the difference. And in blind taste tests, consumers often prefer lower-quality olive oils.

OpSec (Operational Security) is a huge part of the game. If you want to reduce attack surface you probably want to give adversaries as little to go off of as possible.
Plastic bags are unfairly maligned:

- They are often quite economically produced, and only require a small amount of plastic.

- They are likely reused, often as trash can liners.

- As long as we bury them in appropriate landfills, then the carbon in the bag goes back into the ground. (See other comments on the myth of landfill space running out.)

- Manufacturing cloth tote bags has a carbon footprint 20,000 times higher than a plastic bag. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/08/24/style/cotton-totes-climat...

- Furthermore, cloth tote bags hold bacteria and are unhygienic for carrying groceries. Washing the bags cost electricity/water and probably not carbon neutral either.
Supposedly he's entertaining the notion of transforming Twitter into "X: The Everything App".

Even smartphones hit a point of diminishing returns after a while. A 5 years old Samsung Galaxy S8 would be still perfectly usable, and better than most cheap devices today, it's just unsupported, because go buy the new one. Fortunately you can slap a ROM on it and keep using it, you can even replace the battery. Unfortunately millions of these devices are already chilling on a landfill somewhere. It's not like we are running out of the resources to make new ones, or there is an environmental collapse looming around.

That's not entirely true for people at Dorsey's level.

> Just to be clear, it wasn't being recycled when we were shipping it to China either. It was just going into their landfills instead of our landfills.

Source? My impression was that china was buying the recycling from us[1]. Sure, some of that was not recycleable and ended up getting burned/landfilled/dumped in a river, but they weren't intending on just landfilling it.

For atheists (at least this atheist) everything that we are emerges from our bodies, and from our interaction with the environment and society, and death is the end of everything that we are. Some of us will be remembered for a little while, or make contributions that last a little while, but soon enough everything we are and everything we know will be gone.

For me, learning to accept this is an important part of growing up and living well.

The older a system gets, the less 'up-to-date' it is. While there are actually companies out there that still use 50-year-old technology, they are few and far between.

I used to pride myself on long uptimes. Then I realised that you have to reboot the system anyway if you want to upgrade the kernel or system version.

That same thing applies to hardware. Can you still buy floppy disks, for instance? Maybe somewhere, yes. But not like they were available in every corner supermarket 20 years ago. CDs and DVDs, likewise. And what happens if you have all your backups on floppies (say) and you need to find a replacement floppy-drive just-right-now?

It might be possible to build a server that will last 20 years, but would you want to stake your business or your life on it?
It is important to recognize that things we disagree with are not exclusively propaganda.

This has been a knee-jerk reaction lately. We find something offensive, repulsive, and anger-inducimg and instantly we apply subjective label and everything that goes along with it.

Instead we should strive to be objective and not demand that others see things through soley our perspective or yet suffer the consequences of labels, or worse.

The gripes you had are mostly covered by the legality question:

Is a platform really for free speech if it only permits one side of the discourse to occur?

If language is not illegal, who are we to censor it?

The last point is this - nothing about language is violence. Violence is violence. Words are just words and they have fixed meaning. The distinction is critical and not bound by subjective reasoning in a civilization that hopes to last.

I cannot agree more with this post. I like Apple, probably more than most, but the MacOS UX is not good right now. The author won’t list the issues so I will:

1. Windows Management - Windows should snap to a grid like they do in Windows 11.

2. Fullscreen Mode - It is bad! Do I want to be in full screen mode or not? Some features are nice in fullscreen, but sometimes I can’t do things in fullscreen and that feels bad. And some apps don’t support it and that also feels bad.

3. The Dock - It takes up too much room on modern high resolution displays and if you hide it it is finicky. So you end up using fullscreen and that is finicky too, but then You miss the dock and then go back to it and get frustrated all over again.

4. The Finder - it isn’t really that bad, but it isn’t really that good either. For some reason I always feel like it takes me longer to navigate around in the finder. Maybe someone else knows why I feel this way. Maybe I need to enable the path as another commenter mentioned.

MacOS does a lot of good stuff, but it is all old stuff that it has done well for years, spotlight, command shortcuts, Automator, fonts, animations, OS stability. The newer UX changes are always nice in theorybut cumbersome in practice and some other elements just feel in need of a rethink. I think with modern high resolution and multi monitor displays a tiling windows mode would be interesting where you can save setups.
From what I've researched, there dioxins, PFAS, heavy metals, and particulate matter result from burning plastic. I haven't seen anything that would suggest that only water and CO2 are the only byproducts of burning plastic.

Astonishing differences between 1976 and today:-

Women were starting to move into the workforce in increasing numbers, so wage pressure was reducing. Unions were still strong, however.

Pensions and healthcare costs were relatively small, as there were few old people.

The UK was opening up to trade and migration with the continent. International trade was expanding, not contracting.

The North Sea oil fields were starting to be exploited, reducing Britain's imported oil price inflation and filling government coffers with royalties.

The Government's civil service had not been gutted and replaced at high levels with politically appointed SPADs (special advisers), so it was broadly competent.

Murdoch owned very little of the news industry, and there were quite a few newspapers that tried to report events fairly, even when they conflicted with the paper owners' politics.
