In business and administrative applications, there are very few reliable "invariants". Demo examples often use physics and geometry for a reason: Mother nature rarely changes those. Biz is different: new legislation, corporate edicts, new CEO's etc. can "rewrite" anything. These animal and shape demos gave too many the wrong impression of categories and types, creating "spaghetti class" messes that are still being cleaned up today.

Has-A has replaced Is-A as the better modelling mechanism in my domain, but it turns out relational does Has-A better than OOP modelling because it's based around set theory, not category hierarchies.

This is one of my biggest gripes with a lot of open source [edit: and also non-open source] projects. It's sort of baffling to me when I come across a project that the maintainers clearly want to be used, but there's no clear and concise explanation of what the project is, why you'd want to use it, and how it compares with major alternatives.
Interesting approach, I enjoy seeing new alternatives to electron.

A million times no:

the point was very definitely not about «hav[ing] been denied opportunities», the idea of the relevance of a «gender» and gender issues is completely only thrown in by the reader, that of the «1950s» confirms misunderstanding because the point was not localized in space and time:

I very literally stated that "you can set the bar to" «just a good grandmother». The reference to «exceptional researchers and engineers» related to the grandmother was just that "you do not need a Professor, but something that has the basic requirements - good sense, intelligence - to become one in case, suffices.

It is not the bar "«of personhood or dignity»" as the poster originally proposed: it is the bar to be a proper social actor. And it is a requirement that has always been there, and which today is in the highlight, given that some are advancing the idea that a pseudo-parrot may suffice.

"Good sense" should better return as a definite Value.
I apologize for being so... combative, at first.

It was very knee-jerk to the interpretation that I had: "distance has been kept from Python and yet it's been a problem"

There hasn't been that much distance, truth be told. You did the same care for Python as you did the libraries, but it cost too much.

We're in complete agreement on dependency/manager aspects of Python -- my main point is, that's the core of it, I guess.

Everyone goes through this, it's awful and annoying, and my original post is a poor response to the presentation of that

The Python 2 vs 3 thing is settled, upgrade to a recent LTS and it's done... until a random relic utility comes around. Then obviously discard it
That's interesting, I visited last year and it seemed OK. Everything was way cheaper than the SF Bay, it was clean and easy to drive around, plenty of variety for shopping and restaurants. Not as fancy as silicon valley, but being half the price made up for a lot

What this thread really makes me think is that I need to look into moving back to Seattle.. if Seattle is still half the price of the Bay and only a short flight away, maybe I can find a decent job without too much of a pay cut, haha.
Just to put some context on this...there is a natural vacancy rate, which is defined as the vacancy rate at which owners and renters have roughly equal bargaining power, leading to roughly inflation-pegged rent growth. There are small variations from market to market, and different methodologies for measuring this rate, but economists have consistently estimated this natural vacancy rate to be around 8-10%.

The vacancy rate for the full US is about 6%. Things are going in the right direction at least. But for some US cities, like Seattle, Portland, and Minneapolis, we're still a long ways away from reasonable.
this assessment is reasonable, but not productive.

- Read your terms of service, contractual responsibility and liability for all services. as a leader, youre authoritative and liable for shareholder and corporate risk.

Solar won't keep you online through a power outage. The inverter is required by law to cut power from solar panels when there is not power from the grid, so as to avoid feeding electricity back into the grid lines (which technicians may be working on!) - this is known as anti-islanding protection. If you want to be online through a grid outage you need a battery array.
This is standard now. My REC Alpha Pure Black 400 panels are warrantied for 92% at 25 years.

The degradation is about 0.25%/yr. Assuming no exponential drop-off it would take >50 years to hit 80%.

Essentially no one has had to replace their panels due to degradation losses as of yet (since the vast majority of panels have been installed in the past ~30 years).
Not if the group colluding collectively control the vast majority of the market. (>70% in some Seattle neighborhoods are colluding with this software.)
A home wifi that offers guest access through the provider like Comcast or ATT could cause that. I had my iPhone automatically connect to an ATT public access point against my wishes the other day. Beyond that, something like an airtag could have logged a connection, or some bluetooth device that happened to log all IDs it saw.
Because net metering is forcing the utility to purchase power at the retail rate. It doesn't make any sense. It isn't a profit margin issue. There is a massive infrastructure and expense to deliver wholesale power to an individual customer and it has to be recouped. Either you sell back your power at some percent of wholesale or solar installs need to get a corresponding increased delivery fee.
> Not entitled

I'm saying what Cloudflare should do as reasonable engineers. It's not a question of entitlement. IP blocking is never valid aside from temporary DDoS mitigation. Eventually, those IPs will get reassigned or the attacker will get bored, and you have to stop blocking at that point or else you will just block legitimate users, since IP addresses do not represent individual people.

Your analogy is invalid. The captcha we're talking about here is not for filtering messages. To further nip this argument in the bud: Most sites that have a Cloudflare captcha to view anything at all will still require more captchas, email confirmation, and often phone confirmation before being able to sign up and post. Then this last idea that IP blocking stops hackers is just not even plausible (queue flood of posts arguing about the diminishing returns of repurposing firewalls/av/block lists for mitigation of low quality automated exploit attempts).

I think we're all confused over the definition. Also one might understand what all the proponents are talking about better if they think about this more as a process and not some technological solution:

https://github.com/tinspin/rupy/wiki/Process

All input I have is you want your code to run on many machines, in fact you want it to run the same on all machines you need to deliver and preferably more. Vertically and horizontally at the same time, so your services only call localhost but in many separate places.

This in turn mandates a distributed database. And later you discover it has to be capable of async-to-async = no blocking ever anywhere in the whole solution.

The way I do this is I hot-deploy my applications async. to all servers in the cluster, this is what a cluster node looks like in practice (the name next to Host: is the node): http://host.rupy.se if you click "api & metrics" you'll see the services.

With this not only do you get scalability, but also redundancy and development is maintained at live coding levels.

This is the async. JSON over HTTP distributed database: http://root.rupy.se (2000 lines hot-deployable and I can replace all databases I needed up until now)

They have a strong bias in favor of "establishment" viewpoints. Stuff like:

Remote work means American jobs will be outsourced to cheaper countries (https://www.wsj.com/podcasts/tech-news-briefing/tech-industr...)

It's hard to make a point with a handful of links, but if you read it regularly then the bias is pretty clear.
True, and even among white suburban middle-class people the depiction was often unrealistic.
Some issues I've seen (and are pretty minor) are:

- Nim is case-agnostic. Tokens ignore cases and underscore so foo_bar == foobar == fooBar. I personally find this enjoyable for my personal projects, but it remains a contentious subject.

- Parallel support is pretty buggy. I've had loads of bizarre issues related to parallelism on the current version (1.6.10). However, from what I've tested in the release candidate, version 2.0.0 seems to have fixed a lot of these issues.

- The official documentation is really good, but if you don't find something there, its hard to find it anywhere (details regarding its Javascript target remain pretty sparse, for example). All new languages will suffer from this though, and I don't think its severe enough to mark is as "not production ready" by itself, but it's worth noting.

Would a good tl;Dr summary of things in CA be that if you didn't need solar before and got grandfathered, it doesn't make sense to get solar now?

How does that work with new homes being required to have solar installed? Is it just a net giant win for pg&e?
> So why all the pearl clutching?

Because the idea that a TV can spy on me is pretty repulsing. To be in compliance with the GDPR I suppose it should be pretty easy to disable, but the fact is that some moron thought that this was ever a good idea to begin with is infuriating. I don't think it's pearl clutching, it's anger, directed at both the manufacturer and the rest of the population that either doesn't know or care that they viewing habits are being tracked.

Still I just take the same route as you, my TV is just never going to touch the internet. The angry part in me just want the EU to force TVs to display a small blink light in the corner of the screen anytime viewing data is leaving the TV.
What the GP is saying is that with the losses from higher angle and shorter duration of insolation, the decreased temperatures increased efficiency such to match the summer's output. The heat in the summer reduces a panel's efficiency.

Do they? I'm looking at the docs related to proxy and CDN and I don't see anything.
> The directives in Perl code tell the Perl interpreter, even the very latest one and it's the only one installed on your machine, how it should intepret loading the code

> That's a much better attitude than the Python developers.

You do realize that this comes at a cost, right?

A lot of decisions in Python3 (and further) are based on the desire to keep the interpreter simple.

Python Core Team doesn't have unlimited resources, and even if they did, the cost of complexity grows non-linearly.

py2 -> py3 transition did not go as planned, but that doesn't mean that following Perl route would have had better outcomes.
I didn’t downvote and I don’t know C++, but I thought that the new and delete operators are how you manage dynamic memory allocation.

Slightly off topic, but is there a service that would quote out a new roof + solar install? We're waiting on doing solar until we need a new roof as ours is ~9-10 years old, and not near EOL.
Don't forget your dose conversion curves across species, girl. ;PPPP

Also! You may find this Twitter very interesting as well.... ;P https://mobile.twitter.com/justsaysinrats?lang=en

(And good point on the K-hole, in completely naive users my understanding is that this would likely induce a K-hole under IV conditions, but also we have to remember there are dose curve spike flattenings that happen depending upon dosing delivery methods due to transporter saturation, for example, etc as well....)
I have one of the TVs mentioned in the article, a TCL Roku TV, and I do the same as you: Apple TV only, never hooked the TV up to the internet. Very reliable, cheap, and dumb.

I think most people just balk at the price of an external media device when their TV has “it” (but of course not the same quality “it”) built in, and so they end up with a crappy, data-mining, ad-riddled, experience. You get what you pay for.
I know someone who did 5000W system for around 15,000 in 2018.

Battert/Powerwalls let the solar work when the power goes out. (the dc to ac converters use the 60hz out of the grid to sync. There is no shutoff to the grid so for safety reasons her system shuts down when the power is out).
Can you give a few examples of such well-functioning societies?
Not unique. I echo GP's comment about RPM gauge being a direct view to the heart of the engine, and I look at it all the time.
..nice little video—- but then completely ruined by the ad at the end. Ironically it kind of shows how we have evolved.

This is why tent cities are springing up. Eventually, housing prices exceed the ability of people to pay, and demand drops. When demand drops, the only option is to either attempt to sell at a loss or lower the rent and accept the loss. Either way, the folks who bought at the top lose.

For home buyers who are not looking to flip, this isn't as much of an issue. You have to live somewhere. For renters, they'll likely need to move to see the lower rate, since if you're already paying a large amount successfully the landlord isn't likely to lower _your_ rent.

If you are looking to do a SOC2 audit and finding it a bit daunting and time consuming to learn and figure out what is needed, I can help you. I’ll get your policies and procedures in order, help you set up your systems and collect and collate the necessary evidence and descriptions you need. I’ll work with you and your team to not only get a clean audit but make SOC2 useful in your daily work, instead of a grudge task.
Too expensive: I wouldn't value any car enough to spend so much buying one. (I always buy used cars anyway.)

The touch-screen-driven interface completely turns me off. Real knobs and buttons or GTFO.

I do not want any vehicle which phones home, especially not if it's going to download new software and change the way it works from one day to the next.

Tesla's self-driving system seems like an especially bullshit-ridden attempt at solving a very hard problem, and that reduces my confidence in their overall engineering quality.
Iirc, Cloudflare offers image caching through their CDN service.

So it’s not like they don’t allow it at all. You just need to pay for it.
> Are they insured?

You are better off if you add them to your already existing coverage for your roof. So probably yes.

> Do they get damaged?

You typically don't expect trees to fall onto your solar panels. So where should any damage come from?
They are extremely upfront about this:

Does that also apply if you're not sending surplus energy back into the grid?
They took 7 months to install the panels. I'm sure times during all that the OP thought if they forgot about him, called them to ask for a installation date, etc.

As a way to curb any thought about undue wait time, the company made a contract guaranteeing installation between 6 month after signing. They didn't comply and the loan lapsed. Now the company needed to negotiate a new contract with OP or go for the legal route. There is nothing unethical about this.

The company had everything to lose going the the legal option, with all the long terms procedures, paying money for a pay back that may never come. They are probably grateful that OP just asked for a discount instead.
Correct the amount of apartments remain the same. The number of people moving around to new apartments dropped so the 2 month gap from a tenant moving out and into a new place disappears. This was what increased unavailability a constant queue of demand. Suddenly apartment costs will drop and cost of living will follow suit. This is a boon. The tech industry is what stirred this originally where businesses were not stabilizing in the wages for tech. People were forced to move to take a better offer and so it created an artificial inflation purely on the demand gaps. Now people are settled back in post covid and things are just too expensive to move around availability including jobs will skyrocket and the pay will rise too reproducing this exact cycle we just went through. It is a cooling off phase for now.
So you are mad that the service doesn’t support what it says it doesn’t support and throw a fit online for internet points.

I give up on understanding why these things go viral.

> One other data-point: daily output averaged to 29.8 kWh, from this 7.56kWh array.

This is useful information that is surprisingly hard to find: if I install panels with a nameplate rating of x kW, how many kWh will I generate per day? In Bruenig's case the multiplier is just less than 4x.

The linked page provides a widely available map for "Peak Sun Hours" (defined as average hours per day greater than 1000 W/m^2 of sunlight), but it's not immediately clear how this relates to the multiple. In theory, you could figure out the efficiency of the panels and their area, but this still doesn't account for the actual curve of sunlight intensity.

Bruenig is (I think) in Connecticut, which according to the map has 4.2 Peak Sun Hours, which is only a little greater the the measured rated kW to kWh multiplier. Is it safe to assume that the "Peak Sun Hours" is always slightly more than the multiplier? Or is there a more better map somewhere that shows this conversion directly?
We are a really small business. We have a headless CMS. We just use media for Content purposes. Nothing out of the ordinary.

Because the large carriers make a ton of money by extorting their clients (ISPs and data centers) with absurd data interchange pricing. Some like Deutsche Telekom are even worse, they charge both their residential and mobile customers as well as anyone trying to peer with them.

That's partially also the reason why the extremely large players like Google and Facebook have built their own sub-sea fibre lines. Utter madness.

I feel amazon cloudfront is a much better option for an image proxy. Takes less than a minute to setup, offers automatic ssl and dozens of caching endpoints. Also super easy to automate with AWS cli. Even optimizes for streaming videos. I have never had any issues with them.

You can check the AWS calculator to figure out the pricing based on your average bandwidth. Depending on your use case you may be paying less than a Cloudflare pro account.
