The F-1 engine was developed in response to a mid-50s requirement, and itself borrowed heavily from 40s Nazi technology.

It does seem historically accurate to say that governments don't successfully complete state-of-the-art mega-projects absent war or an existential treat.

I expect those are the only things powerful enough to cut through the bureaucratic resistance to progress.
fang devs like to think that they are somehow superior to the rest of us. So they think mentioning that they work for a fang company gives their statements greater importance.

I can't rediscuss the whole corona pandemic with you.

But I'm stating that this simplification in the earlier comment is not as simple.

Independent of this, it doesn't matter as captain hindsight didn't exist in the beginning of all of this.

If a peer reviewed study comes to the conclusion that a lockdown was a shitty idea it doesn't make it a bad decision.
I don't believe its contrarianism. Sure, its an interesting science experiment but it has no viable way to generate power in any way. The lasers needs to be more efficient by a factor of 100x in the best case scenario(it depends on the specifics of how they calculate net gain). Then you probably need to increase that by another factor of 2-5x even assuming you have a way to convert that thermal energy to electricity.

No one has any idea how that would ever be viable; other fusion alternatives at least have a way to accomplish thermal transfer from the reactor. Then you somehow have to figure out how to build a financially viable power plant. Oh, by the way, the lasers need to fire 1000x more for that. No one has any idea how that would work either.

There is a reason no one but a national lab interested in fusion reactions with massive financial resources has done this before; its interesting but doesn't produce any kind of viable power source.

Edit: The INF was proposed and designed as means to ensure the viabilty of the nuclear stockpile. It and the French equivalent were never understood as somehow prototyping a fusion power plant for the reasons laid out above. The press reporting here is just not accurate.
That's a pretty arrogant take based on zero actual evidence. When "in my experience" is "randoms on the internet who I've never met and occasionally argue with online", I don't think we can draw many conclusions.

People willing to pay for content.

One one extreme, you will have YouTube and it’s user generated content and ads and the huge moderation costs.

On the other is professionally produced content, like Comcast, Apple, Amazon, Netflix, Disney, etc.

It may or may not be economically viable to have an option in the middle, or at least it has not been so far. Vimeo is the only one that came close to making it work, as far as I know.
A terminal app for the 21st century is:

I'll grant you that _is_ kind of futuristic, but I would really rather not install your keylogger on my system.

Did you now? Well, that sounds problematic. I expect the use of well-vetted common (if not standard) libraries. Also, why does a terminal app need graphics shaders?

LCOE of nuclear is cheaper than almost all other possibilities we have. sure nuclear is very expensive up front, but a nuclear powerplant can run for 100 years while wind and solar had to be completely replaced every 25 years.

your correct that nuclear has had some very expensive accidents, but the chance of a modern gen3+ plant that we'd build today causing any accidents like that in a western country is so very close to 0 that it's not even worth discussing.

The assumption that human eyes can be measured in FPS is, in itself, very questionable.

In the strictest sense, yes. But it seems quite reasonable to think that there is something like an "FPS equivalent" for the human eye. I mean, it's not magic, and physics comes into play at some level. There's a shortest unit of time / amount of change that the eye can resolve. From that you could work out something that is analogous to a frame-rate.

And if it were indeed the case, then it would surely be far in access of 60fps

Not necessarily. Quite a few people believe that the human eye "FPS equivalent" is somewhere between 30-60 FPS. That's by no means universally accepted and since it's just an analogy to begin with the whole thing is admittedly a little big dodgy. But by the same token, it's not immediately obvious that the human "FPS equivalent" would be "far in excess of 60 FPS" either.

I had the same issue for years, and silly little thing that has helped me a lot is that I put a reminder in my calendar that simply says "Just because you stopped using a system, doesn't mean the system is bad". That's enough to prompt me to 'get back on the horse' when I fall off versus spending a week looking for a better horse.

On balance, this shift in my attitude means I definitely use more simple organizational tools more often than I did in the past, and that has certainly helped my productivity.
Neither is particularly healthy. Either staying level-headed and analytical or simply admitting ignorance would be healthier. Skeptical/Gullible are two ends of the same crutch for when we are unable or unwilling to do either.
Work-life balance. This is the only non-negotiable. This includes - explicit and “zero expectation” of ever keeping me “on call” during my time-zone’s night-time. A pre-planned one off or not very frequently recurring late evening call is fine.

The absolute claim may be false, but the degree to which China interferes with its trading partners’ projects and especially internal affairs is orders of magnitude lower than that of the US. That’s not whataboutism, it’s pointing out an important difference that actually has a major influence on how countries perceive the two powers.

I don’t see how Twitter could afford to compete with YouTube financially. YouTube has the larger audience (3x MAU) so they get the best advertising deals, and they STILL don’t break out YouTube’s profit/loss individually, suggesting it’s probably either low margin or a loss leader for alphabet.

This.

If you have to build a steam turbine to convert the energy from your fusion reactor into electricity, it's never going to compete with solar and wind power in most of the world.

Doesn't mean that there won't be applications (if you can make all those lasers compact enough, submarines, ships, and ultimately spacecraft come to mind), but grid electricity is doubtful.

That's a good question. I would say architectures and data structures, generally.

We tend to get into the weeds as programmers, but 9/10ths of it is the above. If you approach the problem in the right way, everything is easy. The wrong way and everything is hard.

> Globalization and free trade are dead because most of the promised benefits for the west failed to materialize

Not sure about that. [1] [2] [3] [4]*

Global increase in purchase power have completely changed many markets, even in the West. Except, probably, the USA.

My speculation: when people say "globalization did not work" they mean "for my western Country, that got rich exploiting developing Countries"

But globalization is simply "the process of interaction and integration among people, companies, and governments worldwide" and achieved most of what it promised.

EDIT: talking a bit about the article, what's happening to TSMC is not due the fact that globalisation is dead, but because Taiwan is technically still part of China and the USA don't wanna go to war against China for Taiwan. Despite the fact that they support a free Taiwan, they never voted for its independence at UN.

In my experience this seems to be the case for practically everyone who crows about free speech on the internet.

It's kinda fucked up how the right has managed to "boy who cried wolf" discussion of personal freedom and free speech from important parts of modern democracy into massive red flags in conversation with others.
I wonder how many instances Twitter will be (soft) censoring? New instances can pop up at any moment, does Twitter plan to deplatform all of them, just ones that host objectionable content, or just those that are big enough to notice? This is a game of whack a mole. Good luck swinging that heavy ban hammer, Elon.
Your conversation with your neighbor has no meta-conversation going on.

Online discussions "between two people" merely mimic a conversation so the audience (of potentially thousands+ of people) can learn and be swayed.

Online conversations are inherently broadcast so the stakes are too high to acquiesce or make concessions for whomever's willing to actually take the bait and engage on "important" topics.

No need to get so defensive, I don't think it's beyond the pale to characterize ADHD as a 'behavior problem'. And I don't think our minds are as different as you say- I take adderall sometimes when I have a lot to do and it helps me focus immensely. It does that for almost everyone believe it or not, you don't have be diagnosed with something for amphetamines to help you focus- it's what they do. I can absolutely understand someone who has trouble focusing seeing it as a godsend. But this hostile defensive reaction that many ADD-diagnosed have when you point out that taking amphetamines every day of their life isn't healthy is well, not healthy. Not to mention normalizing it for kids as I mentioned.
well actually...

there was another time a site hotlinked to a js file. After asking them to stop, i found that they had a contact form with a homebrew captcha which created the letters image like http://evilsite.com/cgi-bin/captcha.jpg?q=ansr

A little while later, their captcha form had a hidden input appended with the correct answer value, and the word to solve was changed to a new 4 letter word from a dictionary of interesting 4 letter words. The form still worked because of the hidden input. I might have changed the name on the "real" input also.

Or yeah idk. I guess he has strong belief that he can spin the story into an "accident" and get away with 5-10 years of jailtime? That's probably better than spending the rest of your life in hiding.
Context will make the difference. If you say "grab a handful of apples", no one will believe you meant to say it, because that doesn't make any sense.

"There are a handful of apples" is a different usage, which people will accept.
Fair use is another one. I'm not a musician, but like listening to music. I recently discovered Rick Beato's YouTube videos where he breaks down "what makes this song great"

He plays snips of songs, analyzes them, talks about the chord progressions, the key changes, melodies, drum fills, bass lines, solos, and sometimes gets pretty deep into technical/music theory analysis. Then he'll play a bit more and then talk about that part of the song. It's clearly fair use, and if anything it promotes interest in the artist and their music, but (according to him) he's constantly getting videos blocked or copyright claims.

Thanks for the general info ... have we found any caves on or in the moon?? And the reference, just skimmed it but it appears to be written at a high and thorough level.

But I wasn't clear about my real question: is there a shield planned for the Orion spacecraft to keep astronauts alive during a sufficiently bad solar event on a trip to or from the moon? As I recall the lunar orbiting space station was going to be unmanned but I was wrong or they've changed their minds: https://www.nasa.gov/gateway So they've got to be thinking about this problem, and as the reference notes we'll need for example adequate space weather surveillance which I note we've been emplacing as of late.

I've never checked it out like running the numbers but I've heard for a long time Apollo was timed for a low part of the solar cycle and one reason Nixon cut it short was because delays put those canceled missions into the active part of the cycle.

If its an automated system, then yes I think youtube should have to compensate users when the system youtube created, screws over an innocent user. If the government, who is almost as powerful as google, similarly created a system where they falsely arrest huge swaths of innocent people, then they too should have to compensate their victims. The goal here is to get youtube to do better, and the only way to do that is economics.
Going through University and working in tech has been extremely hard for me. I'm terrible at it. Sure, I can come up with an algorithm, I can write code, but something about doing mental work is extremely laborious to me. I spend 30 minutes panicking before I can even open an email.

This past year I took a break and went to work with my Arborist friend as a groundsman. Do I still have ADD? Probably? I can't tell. None of those ADD issues come up unless I'm working on a computer.
