There is no "action" because it would be actively stupid to build storage you have not spare renewable generation capacity to charge up. The money is, instead, correctly spent on generation capacity that actually displaces CO2 output.

Storage will be built out later.

It is not yet clear which kinds of storage are cheapest, because the costs of many are still falling fast. By the time we have a use for storage, it will be cheaper and we will know which to build.
Speeding up the Rust compiler without changing its code
Yeah, I really don't get what they get spending so much on advertising it. Apart from the idea being ridiculously impractical, it's just not a very good idea even if it was achievable to build it...

So is this all just image massaging? To try and associate Saudi Arabia with things other than the executions, human rights abuses, etc.? I did see some interesting analysis that the massive spending on advertising and advertorials by oil and gas companies in papers like the New York Times did seem to have an effect on softening how the papers covered climate change and the impacts of fossil fuels... Maybe this is the same idea?
This really goes all out. I really love all the different foil/holo effects.

Pretty soon actually. Android as a power user device is pretty much done. Hardware remote attestation will ensure that everyone is running unmodified Android. Without the freedom to sideload, root and hack the phone and its apps, there's no point. It's just a poorly kept Google walled garden and I have zero interest in that. My next phone will be an iPhone.
As long as they are upfront about it with the donors that seems pretty fair. If I donate money to a project but the author doesn't want/need the money then I am fine with them instead giving it to another one of my dependencies. I can imaging companies like it as well since they can immediately write off the donation, rather than wait 3 weeks to see if their money will be returned.
Why would it be fraud if they're upfront about it?

It looks like the entire point of thanks.dev is that you give them your dependency list and they attempt to distribute your donation budget between your dependencies. Their target audience specifically doesn't want to think about where exactly the cash goes, they just want to make sure it goes to maintainers of software they use.

No one is being defrauded when the exact distribution of the funds changes because the exact distribution of funds is explicitly delegated to thanks.dev.
VR absolutely needs to capture the average FB user and the masses. Zuck is not building the new WoW or an NFT marketplace. His goal is to create a highly social, highly monetizable, work/play platform for the planet.

Right, that's why FB, Meta and its metaverse are so highly regarded in the crypto community.
> Open source is unsustainable right now —- Github Sponsors will not save the maintainers with software used by Fortune 500s expecting business level support.

If Fortune 500 companies are expecting "business level support" from FLOSS maintainers and developers, they should be paying for that. This is how things have always worked. GitHub Sponsors is neither here nor there; its purpose, as with any crowdfunding, is to help everyone else fund development of FLOSS.

His absolutism doesn't extend to bots. His absolutism probably doesn't extend to having no real recommendation algorithm, and just random views for everyone. If he throws in a PageRank-like algorithm a la the central Google algorithm; or even just the choice of that, you might get the equivalent of some pretty solid moderation. Google definitely has holes and problems, but it can't be considered absolutist re free speech.

People act like it will be easy to remove the huge subsidies from these bad industries, but imo the fact that these subsidies are so huge and so ridiculous from anyone from the outset to see is proof that they are not going anywhere. These lobbies are seriously entrenched and probably as powerful as they come.

Plus there is more that a cow is used for than just ground beef. 99% of the cow is used for things. You'd have to bring a capable alternative to market for each and every part of the cow that currently sees a use if you want to end pasturalism, and right now even coming up with an alternative to the most common use people think of when it comes to a cow is hard enough.

Disclaimer: Cofounder/CEO of Ahana here, which provides a managed service of open source PrestoDB for fast, reliable SQL Lakehouses and analytics.

I wanted to add nuance to the conversation: While most open source projects these days are licensed with Apache 2.0, there are two categories that projects fall into: community-controlled and vendor-controlled. The difference is the control. If a project is governed by a gold-standard hosting organization like the Linux Foundation and have organizationally diverse committers, then it's community controlled and open forever. However if the project is mostly owned by one company then it's easy to move to a non-compete license. For example, Linux Foundation hosts Presto and the license cannot be changed to a non-compete. This is guaranteed by the Linux Foundation charter. The fork of Presto (named Trino) however, turned into a company controlled open source project. In my experience, the distinctions between open forever vs. possibly more closed with a non-competitive license tends to be overlooked in choosing which to use.

I commend Sid on his efforts to keep open source, open forever. Donating your project to Linux Foundation like Facebook/Meta did with Presto is one path to achieving that, this new approach is another. Bravo!
There is in fact no such issue because literally no one is even considering producing hydrogen for energy storage in that way.

> Tesla CEO Elon Musk revealed that the carmaker was “about a month” from bankruptcy during the run-up in Model 3 production from mid-2017 to mid-2019

Source: https://www.cnbc.com/2020/11/03/musk-tesla-was-about-a-month...

You're right, that never really appeared in the annual reports. So either Musk lied to CNBC, or the annual reports played down Tesla's actual position.
But that just is not true. A very small team with a very focused codebase perhaps. But when you are balancing 40 competing issues that are impacting a wide range of cusromers, where each issue has the potential for downstream impact on all of the other issues it isn’t just PRs and tickets. Combine this reality with the fact that your team not only needs to deliver bugfix X for customer Y, but also needs to work with the other team delivering feature Z for customer A, which shares code with bigfix X. Things quickly evolve beyond independent fiefdoms.

As someone working in a building that is 250 years old I can assire you that it too sees multiple changes a day. Minor changes sure. A wall being painted here, a cable being inserted there, a entrance being moved etc.

Sure walls being moved is a more rare occurance, but it too happened multiple times during the past years.

I think there are undeniable parallels between software and architecture. Architecture just operates on a longer time scale.

Sorry for the daft question. Just to clarify, do you mean that the vendor modifies gcc and doesn’t release the source, or that the vendor has its home-grown C compiler that is functionally equivalent to gcc?

Look. All I know is what I looked up, and have read in the past; and that I wasn't rate limited until after I commented on a thread that suddenly got mega-flagged and I deleted my comment to try to be safe. Wasn't fast enough I guess, cause either an auto-bot just rate limited everyone in it; or a mod did.

Prior to that, I wasn't rate limited. After that, I was. Make of it what you will.
Last week, with the new Apple TV the remote switched from Lightning to USB-C charging. That indicates that they are now in the process of transitioning accessories. It’s a pretty clear indicator of an overall shift in their plans.
Here in sunny Sydney, US$260k would cover the salary of three good developers, or two exceptional developers.
So they settled, interesting! Sad it didn't go to court, could have made a curious precedent. This is different, however (although I haven't done much legal work in this space) as it's an investment open source DAO can be structured in a way that does not have clear beneficiary structure and as long as the primary software developer can show that they can't exert ultimate control of the network, it's all for nil. (Now that's a whole different kettle of fish!) You have things like GNU Taler potentially being able to map the existing irl ownership structures quite closely, and all kinds of ZKP, Shamir-based stuff on the end of the spectrum where it all breaks down. I allude to the latter, which would make sense (technically using a mixer would constitute money laundering in the spirit of the law but we don't see people get charged with it, never. And doing so would set a disturbing precedent. If you're starting with some primary shareholder, you're probably doing DAO wrong, and it then becomes less decentralised and more like crypto cosplay on the prior structure.
I went vegan for about a year not too long ago. Just thought I’d try it. I ended up really liking it, mainly because it got me a bit more comfortable cooking and trying recipes and ingredients I would never have considered. I’m not vegan anymore, primarily because of a living situation (roomies.) I like meat, but I’m still thrilled to whip up a good quick vegan or vegetarian dish now and then.

However, if you take a meat centered dish and just remove the meat, or throw in a meat-like substitute (beyond burgers more than something like tofu or seitan), then yeah, it’s not going to be great. Vegetarian and vegan recipes are often really good precisely because they don’t attempt replace meat with anything. Instead I think they rely more on spice and flavor combinations.

You’re not going to find a replacement for a killer dry-aged ny strip steak that’s grilled to perfection. But you might find a fantastic curry, kimchi stew, roasted pepper, or black bean burger recipe that help to broaden your tastes and get comfortable eating less meat.
There is a TestFlight Swiftfin app that is pretty decent. The only reason I still prefer Infuse (another Apple TV app that works with Jellyfin) is the more polished UI.
I'll repeat my metaphor.

If I go on a diet...

In the metaphor 'I' mirrors green technologies. 'global population health' mirrors total global emissions.

If I go on a diet and lost weight, that is no trick. I have lost weight.

That isn't invalidated by the rest of the world getting fatter.

If I put solar panels on my roof I will lower my co2 emissions. That isn't invalidated by you rolling coal.

I agree it's bad that co2 emissions are increasing but that doesn't mean that the proposed solution is a trick.

Obviously photography as a whole has never been bigger and still growing. The vast majority of it on smartphones, which the industry, especially Apple, has pushed to incredible levels of quality.

But I'd say "serious photography" is about where it's always been, maybe a little reduced. It's always been expensive to have a proper setup. The huge difference is that the new consumer stuff (phones) are just much much better than it used to be (point and shoots).

There's still a big difference though between what you can get out of a phone and what you can do with a "real" camera. I have never seen anything out of a phone that can match what you can do with a full frame and a fast 55 or whatever. Sure you can add fake depth of field in software but I'm not sure it will ever be possible to really duplicate in a phone. Especially the interface - phones just don't have the physical controls you need to play some of the tricks "real" cameras can do, like grabbing focus or white balance from somewhere else then holding it as you compose your real shot. At some point just the lack of dedicated buttons is holding you back. I know there's apps that can give you more control than the default apps but with a physical body I can set up that shot in 1 second.

I actually felt this acutely just last night. One of my friends went all out with halloween makeup and wanted me to take some pictures, but I only had my phone on me. They came out OK, pretty good even, but I know for a fact I would have been able to do much better with my half-broken old a7sii and a decent lens. Much, much better. But it's the camera you have with you...
You don't need absolution, just reduction.

If the option is eating cows that eat some grass and feed from a couple of acres of desolation vs. eating beans and grains from a quarter acre of desolation, then the option is obvious. You can still eat the tenth of the cows that can survive on the grass alone.

Reducing the desolation and increasing the yield by building an ecosystem rather than monocrop is better, but that is a harder transition.
I wonder how having engineers running errands at the boss's side-hustle benefits TSLA shareholders.

And as expected, this one is covered by Knuth in his "Bitwise Tricks and Techniques" section of TAOCP (pages 133–202 of Volume 4A, which start with "Now comes the fun part"). Specifically, this one is equation (84) on page 150, or page 18 of the draft (pre-fascicle 1a) here: https://cs.stanford.edu/~knuth/fasc1a.ps.gz

Note that as he mentions, this method actually walks through the subsets of a set in "proper" order (increasing order of the numbers): the operation (x-X)&X actually finds the next largest x' that is a subset of X.

I had to work out an example in detail to understand it better: Suppose we're running through subsets of {2, 3, 5, 7}, represented by the bitset X=0b10101100:

(76543210)
…10101100

Suppose we're currently at the subset {2, 5}, represented by x = 0b100100:

(543210)
x = 100100

Then we want to go to the next subset {3, 5}. We can do this by:

• Taking (x|X̅), in this case:

(9876543210)
(x|X̅) = …1101110111

• Adding 1 to it:

(9876543210)
(x|X̅)+1 = …1101111000

• Then keeping only the ones that are still compatible with X:

(543210)
((x|X̅)+1)&X = 101000

With some algebra we can see that we get the same result by doing (x-X)&X.

Basically, "the next subset" means "find the smallest element not in the current subset, add it to the current subset, and remove everything smaller than it" which is exactly what's going on with the +1 and carries.
And, not even concrete.

But there are numerous other storage alternatives that also do not need any special materials. We don't know yet which ones will be cheapest.
There's a ready-made textbook solution for a company that can't make efficient use of its cash:

Return it to the shareholders, and let them find their own efficient use for it.

i.e. pay a dividend. Yes, he would be paying a lot of it to himself, but maybe his personal investment staff can put it to use for him.

Most corporate managers would rather set their money on fire than pay a dividend. MZ is no different. Normally a hostile takeover would fix that problem, but he's got himself so wedged in there with the voting shares that a takeover may be impossible.

I forget which photographer/camera blogger/reviewer wrote this many years ago, but it has stuck with me:
"the best camera is the one you have with you"

His point being that carrying around a bunch of heavy gear is not pleasant.

A lot of camera and lens sales were driven by progress at the margins without any serious benefit to the average user. Until the smartphone. Now, the number of people with surprisingly good cameras which they have with them almost constantly is absolutely astounding.

Yes, I can still roughly tell the processed shots from portrait mode on my phone from a much better camera but the differences aren't as drastic as you'd imagine. Most importantly, I have the camera with me.
I wanted to say: Mesopotamia would have been first on my list.

I respect that, but you still distilled an entire discipline to a couple semesters of course work. It is as absurd as an MBA saying they could be engineers because they took a few CS classes.

It is incredibly valuable to understand the big picture of the industry but it is not sufficient to distill an entire discipline to a few classes.
