> The thing is, this stuff is more expensive than normal meat

That's only because we are "subsidising" meat production cost through immense animal suffering. Once you have regulations that make the animals we keep in captivity have a somewhat good life, then meat price goes through the roof and those alternatives are the only reasonable option for the non-rich.

> And if they replace meat consumption then it puts even more stress on the agricultural land that can actually grow vegetable crops, which is only about a quarter of all farm land.

And where do you think the animal food is grown? Instead of feeding it to animals, make veggy dishes out of it.

It's true that some land can't be reasonably used for growing and harvesting crops, and keeping animals there which turn this into high quality protein is the best option, but that's only for certain regions on the planet.
what is the use case for having 600K (lines? bytes?) JSON? I'm a bit shocked and curious at the same time :)
Sure, but in that case you can just go with Whatsapp and Facebook Messenger with WA being at least E2E by default, no point even trying some "alternatives" as Signal or Telegram under pretense of security.

With Telegram I can see at least appeal in using it as news source, chat room or for bots, but what offers Signal besides hype about The Current Thing?

Signal uses centralized server with closed source (they hidden code for one year until they finally gave up when users nagged them, nobody knows what they did during that year), Signal requires your phone number, Signal doesn't allow third party apps officially and tried to push some shady crypto, I mean how many red flags you need to avoid such POS app?

> Some laws are unjust so I can choose what laws I want to follow

It depends on your sense of justice, but ultimately, you have to follow your personal conscience also. Some are driven more by upholding the law and others more by their personal conscience.

Justice is even above the gods.

Human attempts to codify it is only as good as it gets.

Stripe also allows a header to declare the version, which is how you should upgrade (test each endpoint one by one, and when they're all migrated, upgrade the account api version).

I personally find this a much saner way to declare api versions (version in header). Specially if the platform supports Webhooks which have urls in the payload: if your API declares version in the path, which version do you use in the webhooks urls?
Can you show me a source for that full quote? I can’t seem to find it.

> is only an issue if there are actual vitamin deficiencies that matter.

It's an issue because it's wasteful, you're loosing the good stuff in the process. Throwing half of your meal into garbage every time is only an issue if you're still hungry afterwards, but it's not economically and ecologically sane thing to do. This is a similar thing, one should try to maximize the use of food that they pay for.
Hello,

I would recommend taking a look and talking with this Finland-based company, they utilise a global 0G IoT network, and their devices are fully plug-and-play free from any electrical supply - thus just stick their device on your walls or place them where you want, and they'll support any data configuration needs.

no internet connection required, and they have their own working data software platform for all essential monitoring data, or your own platform via API.

From all your points, they seem to actually fit your needs from #1 to #4.

Here are their contact links: https://connectedinventions.com/about-us/
And here are their devices: https://connectedinventions.com/all-devices/

I've been asking myself ever since this beyond/incredible/whatever fad got started: Why spend all the time and energy trying to make something taste like beef that isn't beef? Why not spend that same time and energy creating a new, appealing of its own (and then market that)?
You are missing the core technology point that drives the underlying thesis here - ‘every manufactured good, gets cheaper per unit as you make more and more of it’.

Whether this is from the lab, a recipe of plant inputs, or some other currently unknown thing - if you are able to develop and commercialize a product around a ‘specific technology’, you can drive the cost of that down through experience and scale.

Animals are a VERY thermodynamically inefficient way of converting plants to ‘high quality proteins’. We have automated the crap out of the food processing system. There are no material efficiencies left to be had. Compare that to options which are on paper thermodynamically superior (I.e. not supporting the life of an animal to only use their muscle tissue).

By taking a technology with a much higher theoretical efficiency, and then scaling that up - creates the classic technology disruption scenario. ->‘It’s the cheaper version of X commodity, why wouldn’t I choose that?’
Pavel Durov seems to be proud of never having disclosed user data to authorities and mentions it every time he disses another messenger. Guess he can't do that anymore now.

(Just to clarify: I like Telegram. I just don't like Durov very much and the way he positions Telegram as the superior messenger in every way, even though it obviously isn't when it comes to encryption in particular.)

Absolutely!

Whatever you might think about Bitcoin/Blockchains, Satoshi did solve a very hard CS problem that didn't have a solution before. I'm relatively skeptical of blockchain technologies and don't think they have any real use cases (except cryptocurrencies,) but I think in the long term, there must be some interesting things to do with the decentralization ideas created by Satoshi.

REST is defined by four interface constraints: identification of resources; manipulation of resources through representations; self-descriptive messages; and, hypermedia as the engine of application state.
Since gaslighting by definition means that you’re invalidating someone’s view of reality and basically calling them insane, I have a hard time seeing how it could be the victims fault.

You can disagree with people, and you can say that you don’t agree with their description of reality, but neither of those things are gaslighting.

October 2021 - Delta - 2 weeks of fewer without break, loss of apetite, first few days fatigue I could hardly move around apartment, though only relatively mild coughing, 3 weeks without smell. wife caught it from me just days later, she was quite the opposite, almost no symptoms besides pretty horrible cough for more than a month, we have both extremely healthy BMI, no chronic issues

~June 2022 and September 2022 - Omicron - <12-16 hours of fatigue, headache and mild fewer, next day already fine

> I remember when XML was the main data interchange format of the web. That sucked.

I wonder why - apart from the "Should this be an element or an attribute?" issues and oddities in various implementations, XML doesn't seem like the worst thing ever.

Actually, in a web development context, I'd argue that WSDL that was used with SOAP was superior to how most people worked with REST (and how some do), since it's taken OpenAPI years to catch up and codegen is still not quite as widespread, despite notable progress: https://openapi-generator.tech/

What does leave a sour taste, however, is the fact that configuration turned into XML hell (not in a web context, but for apps locally) much like we have YAML hell nowadays, as well as people being able to focus on codegen absolved them of the need to pay lots of attention towards how intuitive their data structures are.

That said, JSON also seems okay and it being simpler is a good thing. Though personally JSON5 feels like it addresses a few things that some might find missing: https://json5.org/ (despite it being a non-starter for many, due to limited popularity/support)

100%. the same reason i avoid whatsapp and signal like the plague. "mobile number" is in itself a big identifier when you are living in a place where you have o do mandatory KYC so that the government knows which each mobile number is linked to the actual human being.

i dont care signal doesnt hold any messages. the government can ask for my number and they can use the xkcd spanner method to do the rest. the point is to AVOID PII in the first place, matrix does this wonderfully. no need for mobile number or email number or your real name.

living in an actual police state, i can attest to how important that is, americans/europeans can hardly imagine.

Personal requirements aside (I have the same requirements); just using this would constitute misconduct at the very least at my place of work.

Yes it's a cool looking tool, but there are certslain requirements that ignorance doesn't exempt us from.

My pet gripe is all of the seemingly local (open source) tools that phone home with opt-out metrics, not mentioned in the "getting started" and take some obscure flag to disable and it's just that little bit more complex to do when running the defacto (containerised) build.
"fresh vegetables are more expensive since their shelf lives are a lot shorter"

Certainly if you have sufficient storage, it's possible to buy meat in bulk quite cheaply, some of which might even be cheaper per kg (or per calorie?) than many vegetables, but if you stick to in-season vegies and cook them sensibly (into dishes that last a while), on average they're still going to be cheaper than meat.
Plenty are in the order of $1-$2/kg in Aus. (potatoes, onions, pumpkin etc.) - I don't know any meat that cheap.
If you're doing truly low latency stuff you shouldn't be swapping at all, everything should be 100% resident in memory at all times. So "pages" are totally irrelevant to you. (You should also probably be using something like the PREEMPT_RT patchset, adjust scheduling priorities and try your best to ensure that the CPU core(s) your app is running on aren't burdened by serving interrupts. Plus likely a lot of other stuff that I haven't touched on in this brief comment.)
Densely-quartered urban dwellers eating like sparsely-populated pastoralists is not sustainable. A theory behind the sanctification of cows in India is because a cow kept for its meat feeds far fewer people than one kept for its milk. The same would apply to some of the climate effects, such as the feed crops, although I don't know if it would change the cow-emitted methane.
Seriously, what do you expect? Money doesn't work. If you invest and want to turn an above-average profit, you need to put up something, be it knowledge, skills, or effort. As you said, owning a house requires a certain skillset, but that's exactly where your money would come from.

So if you're already in the construction business, or a real-estate lawyer, or simply have lots of experience and spare time, it's a good choice. If you're a software engineer who can't tell drywall from masonry and simply wants to do a few mouse clicks to gain a passive income, it's definitely not for you.
That's only if the rent you receive is greater than the mortgage with interest you pay to the bank. Sometimes that math doesn't work out.

I had a box-full until recently that I shamefully threw out :) Yeah,
the pins were also quite strong (harder to snip with side cutters
iirc), and square (or hex) because the wire needs to bite into the
edge of the pin. You could get away with as little as three
turns. They were long because you might typically make 3 or 4
connections per pin, so the height would soon stack up. It is really
hard, but slightly possible to wire-wrap directly to the pins of old
through-hole TTL logic if you have only one connection per pin. The
main problem is that unless you use very fine wire and go gently the
torsion will twist the IC pins off.

It's also possible to use a mixed method of wrap and solder to make
point-to-point simple digital circuits.

As a surface user, I must say windows 11 definitely has gotten -worse- for tablet usage too. 10 had a special "tablet mode" that did things like automatically keeping all app windows fullscreen, like a tiling window manager, and giving you a friendlier to touch start menu but 11 dropped the tablet mode.
I ended up installing linux with Gnome and a tiler extension once I read that my particular tablet was compatible and I'm much happier for it.

The design compromises have become really hard to justify even when you're coming from the point of view of the minority among us who use hybrid devices. It's difficult to tell who Windows 11 is for. They want to imitate the macOS dock but even macOS has less limitations, you can drag and drop a document onto the dock, you can drag a folder and have a peek in the inside of the folder when you click it, you can't do that with the 11 taskbar, which only accepts software shortcuts. The windows 11 taskbar is an abomination and the worst piece of UI I have ever used in my life.

It was possible to add documents, folders etc to "quick launch" which was introduced to windows 9x along with Internet Explorer's active desktop. It's just amazing how the modern windows UI has become inferior to decades old tools.

"We find irrigation of cattle-feed crops to be the greatest consumer of river water in the western United States, implicating beef and dairy consumption as the leading driver of water shortages and fish imperilment in the region. We assess opportunities for alleviating water scarcity by reducing cattle-feed production, finding that temporary, rotational fallowing of irrigated feed crops can markedly reduce water shortage risks and improve ecological sustainability. Long-term water security and river ecosystem health will ultimately require Americans to consume less beef that depends on irrigated feed crops."

I can't say I'm surprised. Before I left the UK, I regularly enjoyed bean burgers and Quorn burgers. I haven't seen either since I moved to Germany, but I have seen plenty of other meat alternatives including this, and none of them are quite as good as the Quorn or the bean burgers.

As someone who grew up in an environment of rich people I can assure you that I have never met more bitter and unhappy people than those who chased being "just a little bit richer" their whole lives only to figure out in the end that nobody likes them, they spent their lives in shit jobs, talking to shit people, sharing the company of shit people, worrying about shit problems.

Unless you are really struggling just relax. Getting rich won't get you happy ever. If money is a constant problem that is a difference. But I have seen stupid rich people argue over peanuts as if they were on the brink of bankrupcy — that existential angst will not go away with more money, if anything it will grow bigger as you have more to lose.

What counts is doing what you enjoy, making decent money that lifts your worries, spending time with good people both in work and in private, living in a place you like. Nobody will give you back your life once you are rich, and once you are rich that dream might become the thing you will spend your life worrying about.

Sure, speaking from a nation with universal healthcare and social security this is all a little easy to say, but if your goal is a good life there is such a thing as enough money. Too much money is poison.

> That's only if the rent you receive is greater than the mortgage and interest you pay to the bank. Sometimes that math doesn't check out.

Rarely does it not check out over time. Rents go up every year, more in those years that see an interest rate increase. Repayments track the interest only.

In the first two years, your rental (and costs of rental) won't match the mortgage.

After five years it's unlikely that your rental income doesn't match the mortgage, interests and costs.
With the small exception that homes, land and stocks (at least some of them) can pay you rent.

I personally like to think of Gold as of Babylonians Bitcoin, it has very little value of its own - but it has a long history of being a store of value (like 5k years vs Bitcoin's 5k days). So at least in this case we have a lot of track record that Gold works.

Beside Gold, silver was also used for monetary purposes, but with time it lose its role - as more and more silver was produced as e.g. side product of copper mining. Countries that were relying on silver as the store of value (China) where hit very hard by silver inflation.

Time will show if Bitcoin is a bubble, cyber silver or cyber gold. I personally would be interested in having stable coin based on Gold, that would basically mean return of the gold standard. But in that case we have to trust some institution to keep all that gold safe...
