> where people found it wasn’t that hard to extend the life of nuclear reactors a lot longer than originally planned.

France is showing right at this moment just how bad an idea that is. Over half their reactors are still down, most because of issues with cracks in pipes.
But it's very much like that. The approval process is extremely inefficient in the US. As you said, "building" the red line is not hard, but getting it through the permitting gauntlet is.

After a certain level of saturation these things just get easier. See road construction, expansion, etc. It's the default, yet it's clear that "just one more lane" won't solve traffic.

Regarding buses (and public transport in general): what's the utilization of the existing capacity for SF and Zürich? It would be interesting to compare number of buses, total distance driven, and other parameters for these rider numbers. Also do you happen to know anything about cost breakdown? (My guess is that Zürich is simply a lot more dense, and public transport is just the default there, whereas it's not in SF.)
Almost anything will panic when you're out of memory, as allocating is regarded as infallible (due to above mentioned tradeoff).
Sure, so we just move the cost to someone else effectively? Seems unfair and unnecessary when they can just mine bitcoin instead.
All was good until I realized it requires:

Mahmoud author of the blog post wanted to play around with a tool and found that he has to pay for something.

Then he follows with a list of why compilation is not free and that is his argument why someone should do this for him for free instead of charging him $20.

He also continues with some far fetched arguments that serve as support for his claim that someone should do what he wants.

I hope I don’t regret saying this, but so far, this recession / slowdown has been very needed and will help the US economy grow in more sustainable ways going forward. And it’s happened without too much pain in the broader economy.

We way overdid Covid stimulus, which helped inflate bubbles like you saw with crypto, pouring billions into the hands of criminal organizations like FTX.

We had cheap money flowing for too long with near-zero interest rates, propping up many zombie enterprises that shouldn’t have been propped up to begin with.

Salary growth is great, but we all have seen a proliferation of bullshit jobs with ridiculous salaries in the past two years.

All of these trends have started to correct, and it’ll be better for the long term. I just hope nothing systemically important breaks before we’re through the worst of it.
Maybe, but iPods and Walkmen predate smartphones by a few decades. I recall posts from a decade or so ago from men bemoaning headphones as a blocker from interacting with strangers.

Specifically for mold:

It is a commodity (there are other linkers), and the main reason to use it is developer productivity. Using a fast, bitrotting and unsupported linker is worse than using a slow, up-to-date linker.

We'd probably wait one release cycle to switch (maybe the replacement linker introduces bugs or something.)

Having said that, there is a clear line from "linking is 5x faster" to $10-100K annual savings for the business, so I'd support paying a substantial license fee. (I do not hold the purse strings, so that doesn't matter in my current gig.)

Solar modules contain lead for soldering and some contain cadmium telluride (CdTe).[1] If handled and recycled correctly, the risk of exposure of lead and cadmium into the environment is minimal. However, there is a possibility that such materials are released by accident (fire, cracks) or improper disposal. That is why there are demands that solar modules containing CdTe should be basically abandoned, as there exist alternatives. However, the overall risk appears to be comparable to that of other products containing these materials, such as many consumer electronics.

[1] CdTe has a low toxicity. However, it may pose a significant hazard if its cadmium is released by some chemical reaction, which cannot generally be ruled out.

This is maybe shallow, but on the about page, could you put you and your co-founders pictures w/ a short description and maybe your twitter handles?

I've done this for a project long ago, incredibly lazily, by using chrome/chromium to PDF and piping to a PDF to SVG tool. There are a few PDF to SVG pathways, I remember it using Cairo and the whole thing was quick and consistent.
Whether that matters depends on your use. Usually when I want to kill a process it's a program I'm working on and unrelated to emacs itself. This will be very useful for that and I can still always fire up an external terminal to kill things in the rare case where emacs itself is stuck waiting foe something and I can't C-g it. (Actually, since I use emacs EXWM as the window manager, in that situation I would Ctrl-Alt-Fkey to another tty and kill emacs if SIGUSR2 doesn't wake it up - a very rare situation indeed.)
Hmm.. there are a number of different chemistries, and they're not all clearly labelled like batteries. It appears the switch from phosphoros/boron dopants to gallium was quite recent: https://theconversation.com/the-sunlight-that-powers-solar-p...

But that's gallium dopant rather than GaAs.

There's also CIGS and CdTe "thin film" solar cells, which are extremely toxic in even small amounts. But those chemistries were never very popular.

As far as I can tell most cells currently installed are poly or monocrystalline silicon cells, which contain phosphoros/boron dopants and aluminium metallization for the contacts. Those are the cheapest and also least toxic formulation.

(Fun fact: you know what popular component uses GaAs? Red LEDs!)

True. Though honestly I'd definitely end up taking my technical & entrepreneurial experience into it and doing something with it in that field.

When I was a teenager, 25 years ago, I used to CNC my own bike parts and also worked as a local bike mechanic. I've only accumulated a lot more fabrication, software, and business experience since then.

I don’t understand why people are reading some requirement for them to accommodate something into this post.

You had me until "federalize zoning". That's a huge step in the wrong direction. We need to fix local politics, not give the already overextended federal government even more control over states.

It is not a break of trust, maniupulation, or a betrayal. A FOSS license is not a guarantee or promise of perpetually working on a project, for free - in fact it is specifically never guaranteeing anything.

Canada has a parliamentary system with winner-takes-all for each seat. We have three major national parties and a regional party which regularly has a significant minority.

So you think it takes the same amount of resources and knowledge to build a browser from scratch as it does to make modifications to an existing one?
For me I think it depends on how your org is handling the source of truth for tasks and work. I know you can use checklists within stories and tasks to break things down without cluttering boards with new tickets, and capturing discussions within the ticket itself helps to compartmentalize things and avoid jumping around different tools.

If a story is your smallest unit of work, does one developer own a story? Or are multiple people working on it? Intuitively it feels like if multiple people are working on a single story then it feels like that should (or at least could) be broken down into subtasks (or checklist items, if you didn’t want to create new tickets) that could be split between developers, and keeping that context and discussion within that ticket, I would think, would be helpful for knowledge sharing and drawing from that discussion to feed into your longer term knowledge base docs.

Just food for thought from someone who tool hops way too frequently with poor short term memory .

Yet OWASP vulnerabilities hit lots of non-C languages and things that you definitely don't do in C: https://owasp.org/Top10

I am starting to wonder lately if all this "implicit language security" (use Rust, use Go so you don't have memory errors, overflows, etc.) is not just some way to shift accountability to some other layer.

I do understand that lower level languages require better programming skills because you actually need to know what you are doing, unlike Python which generally shields you from a lot of ugly things, but that's about it. You can do bad shit in Python/Java too. And that happens like A LOT.

So what are we actually protecting our services/software from? Reducing the attack surface, totally agreed. But then log4j...
Or are we moving to more "user-friendly" languages because they don't require such an amount of knowledge?

I don't know. I do see the value Rust and Go create, but if we follow good software practices in C, don't you think we could ship decent safe software there too? Or are all C programs inherently buggy by default?
So has Go still held true to this minimalist philosophy?
The author restricts general to mean restricted to text input and output. Which is obviously ridicolous. By their very nature, being restricted to text input and output these models can not be general.

The response to that objection also seems pretty bad. Sure, some humans do not have the prerequisities to do e.g. image recognition, but they have the intellectual ability to do so.
A person detached from all their senses and means to express himself is not less intelligent than GPT-3, just because GPT-3 has the ability to consume input and produce output. In fact, by the standards of the article, such a person would be outclassed by any computer programm.
And for the second response, saying that GPT-3 could potentially also deal with images or sound, if presented in the right format is just proof that it is not general. Saying maybe it could do more things if we train it on more things is just blind speculation. It could very easily be the case that if you tried to implement sound input in GPT-3, it would significantly worsen it performance on all other tasks.

Besides, doesn't GPT-3 still struggle very much with continuity and producing output that is coherent over long spans of text?

> The loss in tax revenue due to prop 13 is roughly $17bn per year.

I’m not sure where you got your number. I presume that you took the HJTA cumulative tax break from that link ($528 billion) and divided it by 31 years (1978 to 2009)? If so, this is most likely an underestimate because the tax break increases over time for properties that do not change hands. Moreover, HJTA does not explain how they calculated their cumulative tax break number, and it is an old article from 13 years ago.

Your estimate is far lower than the original article’s estimate based on the Census ACS, which is “$68 billion per year, or $5,200 per household”.

> California lost a similar amount just to EDD fraud $31bn (probably every year).

I agree that this was terrible, though I think that was a one-time event due to the relaxed unemployment application process due to COVID-19.

Let’s do both.

Property taxes (particularly the land portion) are not only for raising money. They also reduce inequality, reduce the incentive to speculate on underused land, make it easier for new generations to enter the market, and reduce cyclical price swings (see Henry George, Progress and Poverty).

Wholeheartedly agree, I also feel like people are overestimating how much discipline you can collectively have in an organization.

I've done a similar move, so for my part, I'd say that I miss the learning opportunities.

Large companies usually have people with a deep knowledge in one particular skillset, whereas small companies are more likely to be made up of generalists. One person, for example, had worked for 2 decades only in securing IT processes for insurance companies. Another was a project manager with a real gift for spinning a positive story from what I saw as a disaster. I learned a lot, even from people who otherwise mostly frustrated me.

That being said, I've filled that gap with meetups and deliberate networking. I have no regrets about making the trade-off.
That's less an inherent problem with extending the reactors' lifespans, and more a problem with all of the reactors being old. They built a bunch of reactors, and then stopped, so now they're all on the same maintenance schedule. If instead they had kept building over time, then they'd have a bunch of new ones, and advance warning to tackle problems those reactors might face eventually.
