This is often repeated, because it is true. Just asserting it is false with no evidence is not very convincing.

Let’s compare solar growth with pumped storage growth. In 2010, US had 0.9 GW of installed solar power generation capacity. In 2020, it has 19 GW of installed capacity. That’s 2100% growth. In the same time period, pumped storage has grown from 21.5 GW to 22.8 GW. That’s 6% growth.

When should I expect to see significant growth of pumped hydro storage? I am willing to bet $500 that by 2030, pumped hydro generating capacity will not grow to more than 40 GW, while solar capacity will most definitely double by then. Will you take the other side of this bet?
If your debugger implements the DAP protocol then Neovim is currently capable of a just-as-good debugging experience in my opinion.

The sole exception in my opinion is remote debugging (it’s not too bad, but JetBrains really bootstraps this part very well).
Well, not just any. All of the dorms had access controls. Some of the business school buildings and floors had access control. There was a somewhat-noted case in the late aughts of MIT campus hackers (tunnel, shaft, and crawlspace-explorers and pranksters that the university somewhat turns a blind eye to) who had to fight trespassing charges after walking through an unlocked door.

How many of those countries on that list would you put forth as good examples of a stable political system? I counted five, and that’s being fairly generous since two of the five has had some political upheaval in the last 50 years.

See https://www.paypal.com/us/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full and search for 2,500, which reveals: "You acknowledge and agree that $2,500.00 U.S. dollars per violation of the Acceptable Use Policy is presently a reasonable minimum estimate of PayPal’s actual damages".

So it depends on the interpretation of the Acceptable Use Policy and how that policy changes over time.

edit: As the person below me points out, the acceptable use policy is defined at https://www.paypal.com/us/legalhub/acceptableuse-full, which includes obscenity and intolerance.

I'm not sure what you mean by "machine intelligence," but there is absolutely no indication that Strong AI can be achieved let alone "pretty clear we're on a path," and compelling argument that it isn't even possible. Machines that learn, sure, but conscious machines, no way.

Your droids, we don't serve their kind here. They'll have to wait outside. We don't want them here.
This is not how it normally works, and I suspect you know that.
You still need to monitor cruise control as well, but that doesn't make it useless. It's nice on long drives.
There was an attempt maybe 10 years ago to move South Australia to EST (the same as Sydney/Melbourne). For the vast majority of inhabitants this would have been fine (almoythe entire state population is concentrated in the capital) but it failed because it was a new thing and because of people at the western border.

They should have just formalised that timezone and moved parts of South Australia into it.

Although it'd be annoying living in a 45m timezone. It's annoying enough living in a 30m one when setting times with the rest of the world.
Sometimes if I had spare time in Boston and didn’t have anywhere to be I’d go to the Barker library (under the great dome). You could just stroll by most buildings on campus. I really liked that about MIT.

I graduated in the 2010s after attending two universities and this is not my experience at all. Every campus I've been on has been wide open. Technically you're supposed to get permission before auditing a lecture, but no one actually checks and every building is officially open to the public. This is still true in 2022 in the three closest universities to me.
The US Constitution is still the best one in the world.

The 18th Amendment (Prohibition) is an example of what can go wrong with amendments.

Apple has since extended this helpful "innovation" to the power button, which no longer turns off iPhones, requiring a faraday bag to block WiFi/BT/UWB radios from communicating while iPhone is "powered off".
So if a student who has to work 30 hours a week to support his family scores worse than a student who has no job and visits a tutor to study an SAT prep book outlining bizarre strategies about deciding when to not answer a question to score higher, that means the latter student should be preferred for college admissions?
I had this nightmare vision where children "program" a robot by showing it's electronic eye a schematic representation of it's desired motion and/or reactions, from the manual, and the on-board AI converts the image into a working program.

To act as the devil's advocate: I've always taken it to be reference to Farmville players.
Yes, I mentioned that that's basically what it says. But why would you tell people to actively duplicate code? It's like "I don't get what this type of function does and have to look it up all the time, better to have everyone inline this so it's clearer".

To be fair, I agree that seeing bad examples of its use shown by one of the other folks here, some could have been avoided by them being forced to inline, but funnily those examples still exist despite the desires of the function author.

Nothing was achieved here.

The Bill of Rights is particularly brilliant in its conciseness.

A lawyer once said that "show me a contract that's one page, and I won't be able to break it. Show me one 20 pages long, and I'll break it."
Children who self-mutilate (cutting, etc.) often do so as a way to break a dissociative phase: the feeling of complete numbness that washes so completely over them, causing them to wonder if they even exist.

> there is so much money to be made

so what? why are we as a society slaves to the advertisers, or to the money they offer? what else will we do for money? first we sell our user's attention when they look at an ad. then we sell their information so you can craft ads to grab more of their attention. then, once they've bought a product, we use that product to serve more ads to them so that we get more of their attention so our ads are more effective... when does it end?

advertisements are exhausting and degrade the quality of life of everyone who views them. if you work for a company that derives its income from ads then you are part of the problem, and you can quit anytime, but you won't, will you? because of money. beautiful advertising money. oh there is so much of it. and there are homes with blank walls which do not serve advertisements and I'm going to found a company to address this gap; it's insane that people can simply choose to avoid advertising when they want to. those people are an untapped market of opportunities...

please everyone just stop with the advertising. holy shit just stop.

and if you work for an advertising company, climb out of the sewer and join a company that makes lives better in literally any way that is not advertising, because ads do not improve quality of life for anyone that is not an advertiser.
> That humans like a class G sun is irrelevant to the prospering of those intelligences.

It's also worth noting that the types of star or planet available don't matter much to meatbags either once they have learned to leave their homeworld. Orbital or even deep space habitats are much more efficient and easier to construct than livable planets. As long as there is a reasonable energy source nearby, you can have any environment you like in a spinning cylinder.

> and that interstellar voyages will be undertaken by those intelligences

Probably, although I would much prefer if we humans became hybrids of some sort (maybe uploaded and virtualized, or extensively augmented) instead of just falling by the wayside. It would be sad if our only job in cosmic history turns out to be giving birth to the real main characters of the story.
Well, if any of you want to buy me a gift, I am really into bass fishing. And collecting hand tools. And power tools.. And test equipment...
Indeed. IMO the article draws the exact opposite conclusion from what they should get their expert friend, something that is not which they likely know little about.
China has a single timezone, despite the fact it is a little wider than the "Lower 48" States of America. It's heavily biased towards the eastern coast.
It doesn't even have to be global. Just look at how long it takes to produce and deliver only one today, under normal circumstances. With many long detours. It's a spectacle for rail-, transportation-, and logistics-nerds. Often documented on youtube by all involved parties.
If anyone gets down that way I recommend the somewhat isolated Eyre Bird Observatory.

It is going to be an interesting technical challenge to build contact lenses (or glasses) that, within the next 10 years:

- have enough compute to render the virtual artifacts

- are self-powered (maybe from electrical impulses from your body?)_

- have some way to get input

- can power your headphones

- have storage (or networking capability)

WITHOUT you having to carry another device on you (likely a smart watch or smart ring or smart phone).

Anyway, I think we're getting bogged down in boring device debate. The more interesting thing (which you allude to somewhat) is how weird / different the future virtual world will be. My money is on it being more Borg-like and less Matrix-like.
I am "that coffee friend", and I disagree. I appreciate the coffee anyone might get me. It doesn't have to be fancy, it may be fantastic or it may not be - but it's very thoughtful, and I always appreciate it.

I googled 'MIT Tim Ticket' and got this on the first page. "New for MIT alumni: MIT alumni can now sign up for a digital MIT ID for ongoing access to MIT’s non-residential buildings and facilities on campus."
Every year a new batch of college kids moves in and mommy/daddy foot the bill for the housing at ever higher rents.

In Cambridge/Somerville there are “mega landlords” who own hundreds of properties and collude on pricing.

The old stock of three deckers etc rent out to young professionals and college students. Even the formerly affordable neighborhoods like Southie and Eastie are now snapped up by June or July for sept 1 moving day.

Everything built this century is “luxury” and priced accordingly. So renters don’t get the price benefits of dense apartment living.

Rapid transit does not serve many of the near-in dense neighborhoods (Chelsea, Everett, Lynn etc) which makes them a lot less appealing or realistic for city commuters, and equally unattractive for people seeking a more suburban lifestyle.
Labs and some buildings were locked by most hallways and open spaces were available to the public. I've always spent time at MIT when in the area. This is a real bummer but it isn't like the institution hasn't gone down hill in many other ways already.

After hours in the winter it was always a fun routing challenge to figure out how to get from one place to another across the campus while spending the minimum amount of time out in the cold only using doors that were likely to be unlocked.

I wonder if this ultimately means the end of Mystery Hunt (at least as anything except an online event)?
i know we zoomers have come of age now that older generations star making fun of our slang :)
Even for me just going to sporting events at the local university, the open nature of campus makes things feel welcoming and fun.

Tesla is a lightning rod. Everyone wants a piece of it. They are held to a much higher standard and are in the media microscope. Tesla and Elon generates clicks and discussion - there's nothing like it.
What's your objection to "conscious" machines? (Putting it in quotes because that's a loaded, unscientific term and everybody has their own definition)
For some applications (eg sticking stuff in an ordered data structure), you just need any consistent ordering, but don't care too much about exactly which one.
It's likely due to many reasons, COVID being the last straw. All schools in the US have been getting more and more locked down with every school shooting.
> but I think she should take a wider view and look at things like how speech and free association would be impacted.

I feel like the first amendment is one of the few bipartisan issues of the constitution, though. The only issue seems to stem from those who misinterpret it as some almighty protection against being abrasive. It's simply meant to say that the government can't punish you for your speech or other association outside of a few cases where you are endangering others. I'm not quite sure if even the most diehard liberal or conservative wants to enable more of that from the government.

there are certainly topics within first amendment rights that can be interpreted, but that's a different matter than addressing the constitutional amendment.
When we were young in our marriage, my wife and I would argue constructively about money things, and when I would tell her that we can't afford something (I am the accountant in the relationship) and try to talk to her about being content within our means, she would take offense saying something like, "I feel like you're trying to say I'm greedy, but it's not about the money to me!"

And I wasn't trying to imply that she was greedy, and I very much believe it wasn't about the money. The thing was she just grew up the youngest child (and a daughter at that) in an upper-middle-class family and she was pretty sheltered from cost, while I grew up in a working class family where money was tight. It was an odd disconnect.

You ask good questions! But you make the same mistake as you accuse the tech market theorists of: You seem to think you know what is (or isn't) going to happen, and what dimensions an unreleased product should be measured on.

Apple like Nintendo doesn't primarily market their products based on specs, or on expected use cases. Novel interfaces and uses are far more important to creating demand for a new product than meeting the spec and feature expectations of the market (or market watchers) before the product is announced.

I haven't ordered computer boards, but I did order a Peltier laptop cooler similar to this one[0] with a silicone aluminum pad rather than gel, and it came exactly as pictured. It could be stronger but it's pretty much what I expected. I thought at worst it's a nice portable aluminum stand and I can replace the cooling unit if necessary.
