Small plane crash causes mass power outages near Washington
“When we came down to stay at the station starting in 2001, we brought everything with us: showers, toilets, generators, pumps, kitchen sink…” recalls Chris McKay, an astrogeophysicist at NASA’s Ames Research Center in Silicon Valley, whose name is still visible, written in ink on the Yungay research station wall. But despite the humble settings and the lack of water, “it was magical,” he says. “We would sit around after dinner and talk science. There was no phone, no internet, just us.”
Same thing happened to me. I got to a point where I had to conclude that the issues with the CEO was not something I could fix and I had to walk away knowing that I'd likely lose everything I had invested in the company. And I eventually did. And like you, the trust issues linger on. Your edit is spot on - narcissism alone in a CEO is common and manageable, but if they have NPD, get out NOW.

Could you not tackle this problem by not allowing this mingling of 'next' and 'current' variables? You would only allow a next variable to be a computation of current variables. Not sure to what extent this would limit the application of the paradigm, though.

I know nothing about ClickHouse, but how many cores are being used for these queries? And what is the core processing frequency?

I would think ClickHouse is tuned for analytics workloads, so it will throw plenty of cores at the problem, and not care much for the overhead. Meanwhile, I believe PostgreSQL is more tuned to transactional workloads, where it will not pay the query parallelism overhead, but optimize for multiple parallel workloads.
> I think that if you took a Unix user from the early 1990s and dropped them into a 2022 Unix system via SSH, they wouldn't find much that was majorly different in the experience. Admittedly, a system administrator would have a different experience; practices and tools have shifted drastically (for the better).

I've discussed this with a lot of people, and the general conclusion is that "nobody cares anymore". Not drivers, not police, nobody.

I'm not surprised there is a rise in roadway deaths. I feel some of it is due to the form factor of the cars on the road, but some must be how people just don't care anymore, and I'm not sure how to address that, when even the police don't seem to care.

The new Cyberpunk 2077 show on Netflix does something like this. For some characters who are speaking in a different language, the regular subtitles are replaced with text placed “in” the scene just like how it appears in the game. (When outside of a conversation, if an NPC speaks in a different language, the text is displayed near their heads like a speech bubble without the bubble)

I had no trouble with this in the game, but in the show it was very distracting. Probably because in the game I could change where I looked to focus on the text of I wanted to.

Can you specify what country you have in mind and the laws around union elections?

I think that would help because the more I read about union laws in diverse place, the more I realize that it's not a even field.

A set of questions that comes to mind in regards to union legal framework:

is a union mandatory? if yes, starting what company size?

If not, what can trigger a election?

What is the status of the employee running in a union?
Is there legal recourse in the event that some of those employee are terminated without cause?

I read Peter Woit's reply to an objection, and it really didn't help either. It feels circular, basically, "angular momentum mathematically looks like this if you start from the infinitesimal generators"...okay, so that means the spinor components of the dirac field transform like they're spinning...but why man, why must that be the case? God didn't give you the dirac states and the gamma matrices and say "all fermions behave as so! " Arguably, you can say the opposite: people use spinor valued fields because they describe spin 1/2 particles, which electrons and positrons are observed to be experimentally.

I once read a comment on how the lorentz invariance "falls out" of the Lagrangian and thus it's not mysterious, this is such a particle theorist perspective (if it's not clear I'm being derisive) who just copied the notes in class but doesn't understand theory or the history of the situation. The Lagrangians you use and then quantize in QFT are chosen to be Lorentz invariant because experiment says physics is Lorentz invariant, not the other way around. Similarly, Zeeman effect and other such things informed Pauli's theory of spin 1/2 and all that followed. And thus, since such facts (constant speed of light, intrinsic spin) are experimental facts, it is natural and fine to wonder if there is a more fundamental reason underneath the theory.

The thing is despite his reputation, I expect better from someone as smart as Peter Woit. This is kind of disappointing.

It was done during the time of the British empire and was recognized for being bad. The entire idea back then _was_ to permanently capture Hong Kong - which is why it is troubling to see China do exactly the same today. It's not a model that should be followed and is not a justification for doing it in modern times.

On an Android TV the YouTube app auto-plays videos if you stop moving the selection cursor for about a second.

It feels so fantastically “pushy” to start playing the audio of some random junk that just happened to be under the selection reticle.

It does nothing.

The videos still play.

I watch everything with CC (few shows I watch have explosions, I need it more for some British accents and Americans mumbling), I never get distracted, but the combination of audio and text combines, I might miss what was said, or not read the CC because I’m looking at my phone, but after the scene is over I could not tell you if I used CC or audio, it becomes one.

Not sure if it’s related, but I also read a lot in general.

> "War is so much more complicated than the author wants readers to think. Raw technological dominance does not assure victory, as the US found after 20 years in Afghanistan."

I'm not sure that really proves your point, in that the US' problem in Afghanistan wasn't that their tech dominance wasn't enough - it clearly was, they pretty much had control of the country for years, no?

Where they failed was that in a fairly rare example of a "victory target" for a war, wanted to not just win militarily but also to change the minds/culture of an entire country to the point where they could withdraw and have the country keep acting the way they were enforcing while there.

Sure they failed at that, but had the goal been to take control of Afghanistan and make it a US colony, permanently occupied for the foreseeable future, that would've been doable (at least technically, ignoring US domestic politics etc etc)

Historically most wars have been about seizing land/wealth/people, not about changing a country's culture and then walking away. Surely drones which patrol the skies and kills anyone at the first sign of any sort of resistance (holding a gun, crossing a forbidden line, whatever) would've made holding the country a lot easier from a technical point of view.

Imagine if the US army had, when in Afghanistan, been given the same orders as say UK was giving back when building an empire "make them submit, kill those who don't, that's going to be our land" is there any doubt that their military strength wouldn't have been enough against Afghan rebels who in the real case could hide in mountains until America ran out of time and withdrew (which wouldn't happen if they hoped to own the country)?

So sure I agree with you that war isn't as simple as technical dominance as the reasons for war etc come into play, but since most wars have different reasons to the US' i Afghanistan... wouldn't Putin love drones that could fill Ukranian skies and kill anyone at the first sight of a weapon (while avoiding Russian soldiers)?

See Cantillon Effect [1].

> I wish it was easier to know what a good solution was to lowering the cost of living without hampering innovation.

I advocate opening real estate to true free market pressures over a couple decades. It now strands egregious amounts of capital in developed economies, is the most heavily-subsidized market in developed nations, is the lowest hanging fruit of middle class household budgets that can benefit the most from a deflationary adjustment transition to the asset class, and offers near-zero national competitive advantage in a future where cognitive leverage is the key to dominant power that will extend beyond the Earth's biosphere.

I think this is only a concern from a code purist point of view.

In real life business the productivity, security, ecosystem and guarantees of a battle proven tool matters *a lot*.

Not sure what alternative you're proposing here and I don't think this is the case, but I've seen already too many times the "Django/Laravel/Rails are bad so let's write our own awesome framework" and let's not get started on how that goes 99.99% of the times because you can already imagine it.

Also:

> For sure you can write clean, maintainable code in Laravel

This (and the opposite) applies to every single language and framework. In my experience it is more an attribute of the developer than of the tool/language/framework.
This is a big one for me. I'm not sure if I'm just getting older, but half the stuff on TV looks too dark to me. I'll just turn off movies or shows within a few minutes if everything seems too dark and gritty. My ears already are working harder, leave my eyes alone.
This is a somewhat dated (not as in obsolete, but as in used for decades) and normal part of warfare. Artillery combat generally involves "shoot and scoot" strategy since the units tend to be identified quite quickly, in some cases before their first shells have even landed.

All AI would do is pull the trigger in the end. And I'd always rather that be done by a human. If AI were in charge of nuclear deployments during the Cold War, it's likely we would have seen nuclear annihilation since there were genuine false positives where a nuclear response was only stopped by a human breaking the chain of command and refusing to escalate as he "should have." [1] With AI we needn't worry about such 'discipline problems.'

Retool Workflows: Zapier for Developers
To put in my two penny worth, although it's not really answering your question: Don't bother reading the articles and newsletters. There is too much information available, and you'll never be satisfied. Fortunately, this is not a problem. In my experience you won't miss much by not reading the articles and newsletters. If it's really important you'll learn it from other people anyways. Instead, use the free time you created to read more in depth topics from (well-written) books. In my view, being a master in a few (news) topics is worth more than being a jack of all trades.
I’m also not involved in weapons development, but I’m pretty sure by hypersonic missiles, you mean ICBMs. Technically ICBMs are hypersonic and missiles, but when people say hypersonic missiles, they mean something more like a hypersonic cruise missile or glide vehicle. The idea being, they don’t follow a ballistic trajectory and can maneuver a bit, harder to shoot down, and so scarier to our carrier groups.

In the end of course, the final “core defense,” as you put it, for major powers rests on the fact that we have a bunch of nuclear ICBMs, so, a real existential war between us can’t actually end in real victory for either party (the “loser” in a nuclear war just gets to be first in line in Hell, where we all be for destroying civilization).

Anyway, the reason I bring up the distinction is that ICBMs are old tech, relatively simple, while hypersonic missiles are a recent thing, never tested in battle. Less interesting to the US I think, they are mostly for scaring away carriers, so obviously China would like them!
This wouldn’t be an issue if people still read books

I thought what I wrote was quite clear. They import Chinese workers to do the infrastructure development and the local people receive some small temporary benefit from the net import of Chinese migration.

In this case the Chinese workers build skyscrapers that Laos cannot economically make use of using Chinese materials and Chinese workers, and a truck driver in Laos benefited from this as they need more business in the local area. The profits from his work got to the Chinese business owner.
