I agree with you about the impact of these antennas and also see the comparison of this with simple graffiti, which is also a huge problem today with so many social media idiots discovering that there are national parks and that they are completely unguarded where any fool can do any foolish thing for the cameras, including destroying irreplaceable pictographs or petroglyphs or stealing shards of pottery or arrowheads from archaeological sites that have not been investigated.

It is important to realize that private companies operating on public lands have specific rules they must follow for their access and their operations are subject to monitoring for compliance with all the rules in place.

Years ago I worked in Utah in Four Corners area on a geophysical crew. We operated mostly on public lands managed by the USFS (United States Forest Service) and BLM (Bureau of Land Management) for those who don't know. We operated up to the border of at least one National Park and needed to drive through for access to some locations that were adjacent to but not otherwise accessible from roads outside the park due to terrain features including rivers and deep canyons.

Our crews had bureau archaeologists leading the way across the land and flagging (to prevent access to) any areas with visible signs of prior habitation, cultural artifacts, petroglyphs and pictographs. Since the local environment was very fragile, our equipment had to operate in a narrow easement and damage to living vegetation could have caused us to be denied access and resulted in cancellation of our operating permit. Personnel were required to pack out everything that they packed in including food wrappers, food scraps and peels, cans and bottles, flagging, etc. BLM and USFS crews followed behind us to insure compliance. The idea presented to us in pre-stage meetings was that the client company had paid for the privilege to explore and that non-compliance with the simple rules of access would mean that our permit was invalidated. Losing a permit in the mid-80's in the oil and gas business meant that you likely had no job. That was in the early years of an extended bust in exploration that ended in the early 90's with the price increases and the rise of horizontal drilling.

I see no reason why any entity seeking to operate on public lands should not be required to follow the simple rules we followed. If they can't be bothered then they upon discovery they should be made to feel the full weight of non-compliance. Society has already defined a set of consequences and allowing everyone to escape consequences just results in an escalation of non-compliance.

Identify them and make an example of them.
Right after the dot-com bust, a CS degree was seen as having no future by a lot of people.

The glut of graduates that have come off the pipeline due to the hot tech sector prior to the bust fell off after 2-4 yrs. This actually led to the huge lack of supply of CS graduates in the ensuing decade!

I think it is partially responsible for the high salaries that CS graduates get (of course, it's a small portion of the cause, the bigger factor being huge growth in the sector).
Are you accounting for all the overhead? Commute time, vehicle maintenance, tool costs, having material stock on hand for any and every type of breaker or connector or wire they might possibly need, the time spent on the phone lining up jobs and bidding jobs and everything else.

Also retrofitting into older unknown shit is WAY more of a pain in the ass than doing new construction too. So if I have enough work to do 40 hours on new construction, im not even going to entertain something like retrofitting a new panel into an older electrical system unless the pay is significantly higher.

If unit testing makes the cut, then I think standardized documentation and doctests should be included also. Python (string literal at the beginning of a class/function), C# (structured comments) and Rust (doc attributes) are three different, valid ways of adding this to the language.

From the article:
>The first experiment showed a temperature change of 25 degrees Celsius using less than one volt, a greater temperature lift than demonstrated by other caloric technologies.

This makes no sense. Voltage is not a measure of energy, it's a measure of electrical potential, or electromotive force. Low voltage with extremely high current is still a lot of energy. The only thing important with refrigeration efficiency is how much (electrical) energy it requires to achieve a certain change in thermal energy; for this, you'd need to measure the voltage and current, or just the wattage, plus measure the actual thermal energy change (usually measured in BTU for air conditioners).

Can they cut 10% of their upper management team too?

I've always wanted to ask that since a company I worked for did a widespread 10% headcount cut. I survived it, but left soon after, surmising that the company wasn't going to be around for much longer.
That’s true enough, but missing the major difference. Salt Lake City’s metropolitan area is effectively in the middle of nowhere surrounded by desert not rings of exurbs that blend into new cities the way you normally see around major cities.

Which is why it isn’t surrounded by a great cellphone network, and thus why they are setting up a independent radio network.

This article prompted me to research: antimatter capture from the solar wind:

http://www.niac.usra.edu/files/studies/final_report/1107Jack...

Not sure what the yields are, but the paper suggests that a capture array would be about 5 tons. Might be worth a try when Starship matures.

Antimatter is pretty valuable. I think SpaceX should look into this, antimatter harvesting could be lucrative.

> If there are ,,others'' involved, it's strange that she wasn't asked (even if it would be redacted).

No, its not. This isn’t her testimony against other people, her cooperation with prosecutors, or anything other than her statements confirming her understanding of her guilt that arr necessary to validate that her guilty plea is entered into voluntarily, and under an understanding of the facts that represents actual guilt of the crime.

All those other things will happen or have, in part, already happened outside of this court proceeding. They are separate-but-related events that will be taken into account in sentencing.
Thanks for the kind words!

My target market is SMB manufacturers in the US and Germany. My ideal SaaS customer has 10-15 employees and 5M in annual revenue, around 50% coming from a mix of services and government contracts.

The United States is ramping up domestic manufacturing, since the pandemic revealed weakness in "just in time" supply chains.

Automation/AI-assisted production is the only way to make the unit economics work though. Picture Zapier, but laser-focused on automating service/production tasks.

Here's a rundown of the public-private programs committing resources to replacing imported parts with domestic 3D printed parts.
https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases...

The second line of business I want to add in 2023 is a white-labeled PrintNanny appliance, with a SaaS sub. A few 3D printer manufacturers have reached out to me and are interested in white-labeling PrintNanny for their large format printers, which retail for 5-10k/unit. This will give me access to trusted/mature distribution networks while I'm building the business's credibility.

I've talked to 3D printer manufacturers who've tried to build their own stuff in house, since the margins of software (90%+) are VERY attractive to a hardware biz with margins around 30%. The tl;dr is:

1) 3D printer manufacturers are only willing to invest in in-house software for their hardware, but most manufacturing shops use like 10-20 different pieces of hardware from 5+ vendors. No one wants to spend money supporting their competitor's hardware.

2) Shapeways (consumer and pro-sumer on-demand printing) is not where the money is.

Compare to 2D printing: the overhead of print-on-demand t-shirts is not an attractive investment. Shapeways is the Rush Order Tees Dot Com of 3D printing.

The REAL money in 3D printing comes from companies who are manufacturing drone parts for the US gov, misc plastics for OEM and after-market automotive industry, satellites, commercial plumbing, Ag Tech. Ask someone who works at John Deere their ballpark budget for domestic manufactured parts.

The next 10 years of plastics and metal additive manufacturing on US soil are going to be important, and the stuff sci fi nerds like me used to dream electric dreams about
For some warehouses they already use bikes.
Do you own a house? Have something go wrong and get a few quotes from corporate institutions. You'll be seeing insane prices. Some smart tradesmen will look at their call volume and charge more accordingly since more calls means people are settling and paying corporate rates.
If you're worried about this, drop a small rock in one of your shoes. You'll walk differently depending on where in your shoe it migrates to.

There are a lot of negative folks in the comments here but I think this is kind of neat. I helped a buddy set up a little art boutique site using a .lol domain and the overall feedback was that people liked the whimsy. Combine that with the fact that that TLD was heavily discounted on porkbun at the time and it all made reasonable business sense!

I hope this works out for you and your users.
Every service can change, suspend, or discontinue.
Google "international premium rate number" and you can get one in any country for free. Up to $0.7 a minute on some satellite and Albanian numbers if you opt for net 30/45 day payment in some places! This stuff happens everyday - I'm surprised no one has talked about it here till now. It is a very difficult problem to address if you want to accept international users and limit false positives.
For skateboarding if you get slightly larger and softer wheels you can go over all sorts of sticks and stones. I ride ricta clouds. Longboards also have no problem because their wheels are even bigger and softer. It would take a bigger rock that would be pretty hard to miss to eat it with those sorts of wheels.

Why bring race into it at all? Do privileged black/asian/etc people not exist? I'm sure you didn't mean it, but it's a very shortsighted thing to say.

Also, I think you're taking OPs comment too literally. Yes, not everyone has several devices and not everyone would want to store random videos on their devices, the point being though that 10gb is a veryy conservatively small number - and it being a fun thought experiment to imagine things like this.

I think long term it will push signed communication channels. As you're only getting voice/text messages from numbers that are signed by your family and friends. People already are not answering the phone from people they don't know. That trend will accelerate until it becomes the default on all devices.

Best treatment for a cold is lots non-caloric fluids and fasting. It works by letting your body put its energy into healing instead of digestion.

Stop eating 3-4 hours before bedtime to improve sleep. Same principle.

I really enjoyed the book "The Confessions of Aleister Crowley".

Not because of the occult stuff, but more because of the climbing expeditions he was on. Very vivid descriptions. Quite the experiences. He climbed with noted mountaineer Oscar Eckenstein, who amusingly, wasn't impressed with Crowley's infamy. They put my many mountaineering adventures to shame.

Poor legal reporting by CNN, but it sounds like DOJ was worried that these shares might fall under a bankruptcy exception somehow and end up in SBF's hands, clear of the bankruptcy court's jurisdiction. If so, this move makes sure the victims, not SBF, get this money.

> My favorite is uniform function call syntax. In several languages (Nim, Koka, D, …), you can always write bar.foo(baz) instead of foo(bar, baz) and vice-versa.

To me, these are "Tell bar's foo to do something with baz." and "Tell foo to do something with bar and baz.". So being 'able' to flipflop the syntax is at least temporarily semantic'ly confusing.
The article is a bit confusing on that point. From looking at the paper it seems like the 1 volt is relevant not because it's supposed to be implying energy efficiency by itself, but for some other reasons I don't understand.

From the abstract:

> "Our experimental results show a coefficient of performance of 30% relative to Carnot and a temperature lift as high as 25°C using a voltage strength of ~0.22 volts."

And from the actual paper:

> "To modulate the electrochemical potential in a real system, the ion
concentration can be controlled by applying a voltage in an electrolytic cell (e.g., dual-ion battery), where the applied voltage is typically ~1 V. This stimulus is considerably milder than those used in magnetic, electric, and pressure-based caloric systems."

I'm not following the paper at all, but it sounds like requiring a low electrical potential is a good thing.
OTOH if you run everywhere you need to go, maybe you don't need to set aside time to run to nowhere in particular for fitness.
My understanding is that Wikipedia does not survive on, or even need donations, at all: they are entirely funded through their endowment.

The donations go to the Wikimedia Foundation which spends the money on a bunch of other social stuff that's not related to running Wikipedia at all. So unless you want to support all those other causes, you're effectively wasting your money by donating to Wikipedia's frequent donation requests. Wikipedia isn't the storage hog that YouTube is; it doesn't cost that much to keep it afloat, and the people moderating the content (the editors) are all volunteers anyway.
So one might look at the stacked cores as extravagant "L4" controllers serving their faster peers that might occasionally throw in some compute of their own for particularly parallel workloads? Seems rather wasteful, but perhaps it's actually less bad than the performance per watt tradeoffs at high clock rates.

Kawai makes quite nice digital pianos. The CA95 that we bought about 5 years ago has real wooden hammer action and a wooden soundboard. It also reproduces the harmonics (through digital samples) that you get when you hold the sustain pedal down and play a different string (resonant frequencies can vibrate other strings that you haven't played).

I highly recommend them if you are considering a digital piano.
Haas would like to disagree. If you experience a second wavefront within ~2-50ms you'll still localise to the first, even if the second is up to 10dB louder.
>civil asset forfeiture and absolutely no protection against unlawful seizure.

Wrong, wrong, wrong. Even putting the specifics here aside, that's not how civil asset forfeiture works. If the government seizes your assets, you can force them to go to court, where they have to establish to a preponderance of the evidence that the seized property was the proceeds of illegal activity. That's the same standard that anyone seeking to sue you and take your money has to meet.
Not OP but I own an S and a Y. The S has a generous air suspension while the Y feels like driving a deuce and a half; very rough suspension (although I’ve heard new Ys since a few months ago are getting something more fancy now). Higher ride height is also nice. Pros and cons. Still love the S even though she’s a chonk and rides low. Interior in both is spartan. Towing with the Y is a treat for trailers within its rating.

If you have to pick, I’d recommend a Y almost always over the others. It’s the optimal intersection of price and value across all models.
Things are getting better in the US - women can now vote and obtain drivers' licenses, for example. And slavery is banned in all states.

Shouldn't have "bought" them in the first place. Buy physical books, or DRM-free books on sites like gumroad, or just pirate. Don't give in to the rent seeking business of pretending to sell you what you can't own. If you like your Kindle device, you can use KOReader to read epubs and reduce dependence on Amazon. If I sue the bookstore, they can't just take all the books away, but if you dispute a charge with Amazon, they'll do it because the ToS says they can. At the very least, try downloading and de-DRMing all the books you received from them: https://github.com/noDRM/DeDRM_tools
How do you know they are “unused”? The web and e-mail are just some services on the internet, there are many others, you can invent your own. These services could be on subdomains or hosts that are only known to those who need to know. In other words, the use of domains could be private within a group. Even if this sounds unrealistic, it’s an alibi the squatters could use to escape forced expiration.
Only if the Domain has no functioning authorative name servers, could you claim the domain is truly “unused”.
Sir, it never went away. The new geenration of kids continued it, not all of them can afford these multiple streaming services.

Ah, the social mobility of the american dream.
I have 20k miles driving a Model S with a Yoke. While I'm not a huge fan, the yoke itself is only part of the problem. The bigger problems are:

1. The capacitive buttons for turn signals. They are dangerous. They require taking eyes from the road, offer no feedback, and are honestly dangerous.

2. The horn. It's not in the middle. It's off to the side as a no-feedback capacitive button. Every time I've needed to use the horn, I've been unable to find the button. I think recent S/X Updates have moved it back, but it's so dumb.

It's a feature set designed to look cool on Twitter. Not really for driving.
I sort of prefer the ones without. The Kawai CA95 doesn't have it, but it does have a line input and USB/5 pin MIDI in/out, so you can simply place a tablet (iPad or Android) on the music stand and use a USB cable to play whatever digital synths or piano emulators you want to download.

Not having a built-in tablet means it is future proof and can work with the latest tablet, even a decade into the future.
The Fourth Amendment only prohibits unreasonable searches and seizures. And it does not require warrants in all cases. There have always been exceptions to the requirement.
Skateboards are a competitor. They are pretty common as a last mile choice in california, and I see even older people riding them on occasion (I assume they've been on a board for 50 years by now). They are better than the scooter on the train. Most people I see with electric scooters on the train don't bother folding it up or they buy these huge ones that I'm not sure even can, so you have this big 4 foot long obstruction that you might not see until you rack your ankle into it. My skateboard on the other hand, I just stick in between my legs if its tight on the train, and throw it under a desk at work. Sure, there's a learning curve with skateboards, but I'm sure these have one too.
Where is underwater basket weaving a degree? (The answer is: nowhere, it doesn’t exist.) That term is a 50+-year old fictional pejorative used as a stand-in for useless academics. Sadly, the supposedly humorous point is entirely undermined by inventing a degree that doesn’t exist. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underwater_basket_weaving

FWIW, the St Louis Fed publishes stats on incomes of degree holders, and I recently read them and found out that the average 4-year college degree holder has 2x the income of non-degree holders. (3x for advanced degrees.) Twice is a really big number and it surprised me, it’s much larger than I had suspected. Obviously some degrees make people more money than others, engineering and sciences tend to yield higher incomes than the arts. But, with an average of double the income across all degrees across all people in the US, it’s easy to see why people recommend any ol’ degree at all, and statistically speaking, it’s a valid point and good advice.
Pretty cool. There's a lot of vim nuances to implement. Everyone is going to have their subset that doesn't work quite right. In my short experimenting with it <shift> in command mode moves the caret up a line which is incorrect.
