> That honestly completely insane that the legal process makes up for the vast majority of time in infrastructure projects like this.

This time is usually necessary to improve the quality of the projects. It is for a reason that this procedures exist. In the past and still today, we are destroying the environment, endangering people's health and reducing their quality of life through hasty decisions. Therefore citizens have decided to enact planning laws to improve the situation. Of course, the duration of planning periods are a cost factor, but one needs to find a sweet spot between them and the (not only financial) cost of projects going awry.

And remember that it were the Greens under Vice-Chancellor and Federal Minister for Economic Affairs and Climate Action Robert Habeck which were primarily in charge for the fast implementation of the LNG terminal.
I run OnlineOrNot (https://onlineornot.com), I spend roughly two hours per workday building features, marketing, or doing customer support.

For me, it started by working for a company that was incapable of keeping their graphql service online, so I built an uptime monitoring service for graphql, and eventually generalised it to work for all APIs and web apps.

How did I do it? Just consistent effort over a long time.

I wonder why the Chinese government doesn't force carriers to block stolen EMEIs.
Probably will get slammed for this but the traditional idea of one spouse working to provide money to live and the other maintaining the home and bears primary responsibility for the kids seems like the most efficient and effective family foundation. I’ve never understood the idea that both parents should be able to work full time AND raise a family. They’re fundamentally at odds with each other.
There are other weird VHS-based formats, such as WVHS, which was used to store HD-ish analog video on VHS- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W-VHS

Alesis also developed an 8-track digital audio recorder based on VHS, ADAT, which used SVHS tapes and could record 20-bit 48khz. ADAT was pretty popular in smaller studios, and was great for the time before multi-gigabyte hard drives. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ADAT
I used to use TMUX user, back in the days when I could SSH to servers. Now days, using a containorized stack (K8s) with cloud native deployment infra/tooling, cli's for accessing the remote resources, rigid access restrictions, etc. I found that I was only using it for managing multiple windows/panes for my local tooling. And have simplified my setup to just doing that inside local Terminal software (iTerm for me right now). (No more configuring copy/paste, scrolling buffers, custom key-bindings so they don't interfere with other emacs, shell bindings, configuring the prefix binding because hitting ctrl-b before each command is annoying, etc.). I used to also use tmux resurrect to persist between sessions, etc. but it often failed me as much as remembered where I left off.

My TL;DR: sure, use Tmux if you're directly accessing remote resources often, otherwise there's probably simpler solutions that might get you 95% of the way there.
My favorite antipattern is, you can just leave a script that does an event loop running in the foreground, detatch tmux, and voila, you have a 'server'. Works great in a pinch or when you just don't need to finish it.
This is nice. I consider my stuff fairly easy for me to recognize so when I read the other users I found a bit of myself in them.

The problem is that safe drivers are bullied by aggressive ones, and the lack of punishment means the aggressive drivers become more emboldened. I’ve seen accidents caused by this where the guy honking at someone until they went an unsafe speed or ran a light drove off unscathed.

If cars can’t go faster than the legal limit, driving would be much less stressful with lower congestion as a bonus.

That’s true, and the extent of how necessary that existing wealth and support network is depends on the kind of venture. For starting a business, absolutely. But there are other kinds of success that aren’t as entrepreneurial.

I was presenting it primarily through the lens of a mindset that is undaunted by failure and having the motivation to avoid giving up prematurely.

Successful writers and entertainers often share stories about how they were rejected dozens and dozens of times before finally getting noticed.

Angular is still the go to framework in Java and .NET shops when a SPA is part of the project.

It is kind of changing in Sitecore projects, because they have a collaboration deal with Vercel, and are pushing Next.JS/React as the main framework for headless CMS workloads.

Byoby looks good, though I never use function keys. I like to keep (almost) everything as close to the homerow as possible, so I don't think I'll ever abandon tmux.

For example, to jump to specific windows within a tab, instead of number keys, I use `cmd-a`, `cmd-s`, `cmd-d`, `cmd-f`, `cmd-q`, `cmd-w`, `cmd-e`, and `cmd-r` for windows 1-8 respectively (I don't have one for 9 since if I ever get past 8 windows, they are usually throwaways).
Very cool! Thank you for sharing that.

When I was hunting information for that client; I found a deck and interface card on ebay for some fairly trivial amount, $200 or so. I was really tempted to grab it just for the "neat weird gear" pile but couldn't justify it. The tapes they wanted read had been submerged for some days and were crusty. The media might have been recoverable but it would have meant pulling it out and putting the tape into new cartridges.

Am I correct in remembering that standard VHS tapes were usable in these drives?
The growing debate over spaying and neutering dogs (2019)
View in Incognito to get past paywall.

I’ve always just assumed de-sexing pets to be appropriate for pets but this piece suggests there are very real health consequences to messing with sex organs in pets. Reminds me of the very real effects that birth control has on women in my life. These products control hormones which influence how our bodies grow. Some people’s acne flair up, others have wild changes in their psyche, some gain a lot of fat, others gain a lot of muscle. I’ve even seen immune systems get much worse since starting birth control. Seeing the effects on dogs makes me wonder of birth control will have longer term effects on women around joints, tendons, bone, and muscle health even beyond what they experience day-by-day.

I’d blame the grant-givers for incentivizing the lockstep behavior rather than the scientists for playing the game.
Somehow the priorities seem to be misplaced. On the London public transport, you're reminded every 3 minutes that you should report "unusual" behaviour to the police, including unwanted staring ("Call 61016 - See it, say it, sorted."), yet they're unable/unwilling to track down a stolen item worth ~£1200 even with accurate GPS coordinates available.
This made my Google the etymology of 'ham-fisted' and I was disappointed that it had nothing to do with ham operators with carpal tunnel syndrome.
I use iTerm locally and tmux on a dev instance and it's great. The built-in tmux integration[1] is a pleasure to use. On my end, I see a terminal with tabs; if my ssh connection drops, I can just reconnect and magically all the tabs and their states are persisted. In lieu of this integration, I enable the tmux mouse mode which lets me highlight text with the mouse, navigate around splits by clicking in them... great piece of software :)

I don't believe so. If it did exist, it would be more complex than LCDM.
> Rust doesn't have nil/null values.

I have to nitpick here: Rust raw pointers (https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/primitive.pointer.html which does note "Working with raw pointers in Rust is uncommon") do have null values. It's not usually a problem since raw pointers can only be dereferenced in unsafe code; most of the time, you will be using a reference wrapped with an Option, which has the same size and same possible values (the compiler knows a reference is never null, so it uses the "missing" null value to represent the None variant of the Option enum).
The best way to use tmux is with -CC, which iTerm maps to native UI. tmux tabs and panes become native tabs and panes and your session is immortal, and it’s a far better experience than mosh or whatever the latest thing in this area is. I have never bothered to figure out how the keybindings actually work and I probably never will, but I enjoy using it all the time because of this.

I make about $7000 a month with a web app that extracts transaction data from PDF bank statements.

Rain Neuromorphics trained a neuralnet on an analog chip–an array of memristors
"Backpropagation, the training algorithm used almost exclusively in AI systems today, is incompatible with analog hardware since it is sensitive to the small variabilities and mismatches in on-chip analog devices. While compensation techniques have been used to make analog inference chips, these techniques have yet to prove successful for backpropagation-based training. Rain’s approach, which uses activity difference techniques, calculates local gradients instead of backpropagation’s repeated use of global gradients. The technique builds on previous work on equilibrium propagation training algorithms and is mathematically equivalent to backpropagation; in other words, it can be used to train mainstream deep learning networks."
I don’t like Go error handling, but exceptions are terrible and not better.

Yes and no. That you can build a hierarchy with Element(attrs, children) where attrs may include callbacks is really decades old. Plain JS does it, react and angular do, and also a million template languages.

I'm not sure why they ham up the risk of privacy loss regarding unmasking anon players, the only "risk" I can think of would be someone developing and testing new strategies but then I'd assume the fingerprinting would be far less accurate, testing if you can effectively hide your own quirks while deviating from them would be far more interesting. As it stands this is nothing new and the concerns seem weirdly pointed, everyone(?) already knows the risks of fingerprinting and pattern recognition in more general applications. It was a fun paper to read, shame half the article promoting it was cautioning.
This was me. At first it was just like “Hey, prefix is C-b instead of a C-a, so it messes with less” (i.e readline, emacs), then I started to understand the windowing better and it feels a bit more natural with modern terminal emulators. And yes, I know the prefix can be changed.

Overall, I’m still comfortable switching back and forth, but it seems like tmux is the new hotness, so I’m using that most of the time. It’s a bit easier to style, etc.
