Gas emits less CO2, but when it leaks it's much worse (Methane) so in the United States it's not far off in the normal pipeline network.

In most countries we're not close to a penetration of renewables that significantly profit from the flexilibilty of gas. Thus building new gas infra isn't really helping. If storage (not just batteries) pans out the way we're hoping, gas can just be skipped. If not, it can be built quickly.

No, not really. You learn this during your first round of fund raising. Once you give up controlling equity, the company is no longer yours. It’s easy to forget that it requires money to grow your company. If it’s not your money, it’s not your company…
I hope someone at Google is raising ruckus over Imagen and LaMDA not being publicly available. I’m quite sure that the public could come up with something much more creative and compelling using the technology than what these guys did.

The alternative is to just do what makes sense, without calling it anything. Junk shit like what scrum has become, for example not discussing technical stuff during standup (why the fuck not? that's what our job is about), artificially splitting stories into 2 week boxes (why the fuck should I break down something that isn't naturally breakable?), why create a card for every thing I'm working on (fucking control freak heaven), etc. It's completely juvenile, gaslighting, cargo cult scientology.

Continuous integration => of course, for me, never worked at a place where it didn't happen and that was before agile was even a thing. If I hopped on a project where it didn't make sense though, I should be free to ditch it.

There is no one way to write software that works for every project and there is no one process that works for every project. Just let the experienced folks decide what to use instead of leaning on some bullshit fixed crap process.
I think it was Ward Cunningham who discussed that on a video. People in his group would interpret with nuances and good sense. But the thing became a fad and enterprise world turned it into an accounting exercise.
That's great, but Dancey's name isn't on the license, Wizards of the Coast's is. Anyone else at Wizards can contest any statement of intent he makes.

Dancey's statement this week also wasn't from his time at Wizards, nor as a representative of the licenser - indeed, he now works at AEG, a competitor with a catalog including OGL v1.0a-licensed works for sale and a vested financial interest in the OGL v1.0a working the way he describes it.

The WotC FAQ from that time, again, is relevant IMO. Maybe Dancey wrote it. But it's relevant because Wizards published it. 2022 Ryan Dancey is not.

More complicated than what? Rule 110 is sufficient to compute all computable functions. All the richness of the internet today can be produced from Rule 110 alone. You'd be surprised how much complexity can arise from simple rules.

Furthermore, the proof I laid out is a corollary of simple physics. If you want a more rigorous version, look up the Bekenstein Bound, which proves conclusively that any finite volume can only contain finite information. Your body is a finite volume, therefore it contains finite information, therefore it can be captured by a finite state machine.

Edit: I just realized I also replied to you above, so I'll take up the thread there.

Is there any consistent "Mastodon ethos"? Or is it an ethos of a subset of the community that wishes it were universal?
Not for me. It was helpful for school, but not for work.
Statistics are the only thing anything has. You don’t have an algorithm either.

Or rather, you (or a CPU or an ML model) have a “statistical” base layer and then other abstractions on top of that which are capable of being (relatively) deterministic on top of the unreliable execution machinery.

> The problem is that organisations want a magic formula that will solve all their problems. So they buy an off-the-shelf process with no regards to how it even came to be.

I feel we need to take a step back and look at the organizational problem. Is your job to get things done in a team environment or waste time and effort reinventing the wheel of how to organize work in software development projects? If you're there to ship software then you adopt pre-established organizational methods and adapt them to better suit your team and org's needs.

It turns out that planning projects with high levels of uncertainty and frequent changes in goals and requirements is hard, and thus a JIT/dead reckoning approach to planning with all the stakeholders involved provides acceptable results while minimizing uncertainty.

So what are you going to do, if your goal is to get stuff out of the door? Are you going to reinvent the wheel or are you going to get stuff done with standard approaches?

There would be a lot more long-term rentals available if there was no airbnb (because airbnb is the reason that you were unable to find a long-er term rental in the first place).

Limit the rentals to 1 month (or 2) minimum and you have all the bases covered.

From what I've read (I may be wrong), Wikipedia has enough in its endowment to survive indefinitely. Of course, if all donations suddenly stopped and they kept wasting money on non-Wikipedia stuff, this might no longer hold true, but that's an issue with bad management.
I am as ever amazed by Alan Kay's ability to comprehensively remember events, interactions with people and thoughts he had from 40 or 50 years ago and still have such detail.

I cannot remember all the interactions and conversation topics I had two weeks ago or explain in detail how an issue got fixed or what its root cause was. It feels to me as if things happen so fast today, that my brain drops old information the moment I consider it done to make room for all the new information.

Is there a trick or technique to it [1] or is his brain wired differently with higher neuroplasticity?

===
[1] I do use bullet journaling for example. It helps to stay on top of the gazillion things that need my attention, but feel it makes matters worse in the regard as I offload stuff and my brain knows it can forget about it ever more.
I think this seeming contradiction is easy to resolve. An average man identifies with his mind, that selfish ego. Buddhism tells how to raise consciousnesses one level above: and from there, mind looks like a tool lacking any self or identity. Hindu tells that there is only one I in the universe that projects itself thru many such minds, and once it stops identifying with them, it learns that those many selves are false, that many is one and only that one is real.
I worked for a few years in a building with these, and after seeing so many apparently inefficient passenger movements, I wondered if useage balancing for maintenance is at least in part what they optimize for?

Most D&D-alikes these days, including D&D and their biggest competitor Pathfinder, have actively repudiated the "orcs: always evil" kind of stuff from the Gygaxian days. Even vampires, demons, and the like occasionally have a place in the narrative as heroes struggling with their own twisted natures.

Of course, part of this for business reasons: they can't sell you The Complete Guide To Southwestern Painted Orcs for $29.95 if a southwestern painted orc can't at least theoretically join a heroic adventuring party.
Any good process should care about both the vector and the magnitude.

The saddest state of affairs, and most common, is when highly capable people have a high magnitude with an incorrect (or inconsistent) vector, leading them nowhere.
From the reading I've done, I don't think there's much controversy about this: perpetual licenses aren't automatically irrevocable; they're separate concepts. A perpetual license is just a license without an expiration date. There are other reason I've read that 1.0 could be effectively irrevocable, but the word "perpetual" isn't, I don't think, one of them?

"Perpetual means a string of infinite length; irrevocable means a string, of any length, that cannot be cut."
>this was a competition in who could be more ableism-aware

Ah, that's just it - I assumed you were "ableism-aware".

I believe in the spirit of the XKCD cartoon "Ten Thousand" (https://xkcd.com/1053/) and do not think it's ever appropriate to shame people for not knowing what "everybody" knows. Much less assume strangers are ignorant so that I can inform them.

"Ableism-awareness" is common. "Schizo-awareness" is nonexistent, as is, I think, proven by the mainstream dictionary you linked to.
Can someone explain this? The link just 404's
Yes, and which proto-Christians? The various so-called Gnostics (more of an umbrella term), the Ebionites, Marcionites, the Johannine community, Pualine teachings (excluding the Pastorals, probably not a bodily resurrection, and with a more platonic view of the heavens), or whatever Jesus, James and Peter actually taught, which is probably lost to history, but would have likely been a form of messainic apocalyptic Judaism.
If you ever took the fur off a furby you'd know it was pure sky net underneath
Controversial, but I think the biggest problem is population. Many of our problems wouldn't be an issue if we had fewer people instead of perpetually waiting for the newest tech to save us. No, I'm not working on it.
Unsaid, part of my point is the bug vs feature request is a bit of a shell game. Absent the developer & the source code, all that the manager might know is that they are getting support tickets for "this is not working as users expect, we are getting calls into the support center about this." At that point the manager can then decide to do the shell game of "well, we have this JIRA that says it works like that", or, they may choose to say "we are getting bug reports about this, the product does not work as the user expects", and hence it is a bug item. Which then gets into the whole politics of backlog prioritization (feature requests often go to the back, AKA the trash-can, and bug reports maybe get more love..)

I think this kinda goes to the point of the article. No matter whether you call it defect remediation, bug fixing, feature work, it's all the same thing - updating an existing software system. I think the point is that the very _vast_ majority of work in software is on existing systems and its almost all is more-or-less the same thing. Which is to say, "maintenance" and "enhancement" are just about the same activity for the software developer. EG: if a feature can be added with a quick 'if' statement, and a bug fix can be fixed the same, are they really different activities? What are the implications relative to the time to understand the system before making that modification?
Safari Turns 20 Today
Where I currently work it's absolutely a process problem (of Scrum). The version of scrum they're running wants you to just get the committed stuff done, and it's irrelevant what it leads to. There is no room for understanding the end goal and making sure you reach it, with a set deadline as well.

You might as always happens attack them for not doing Scrum right, and I'll tell you that's the age-old cry of the agile-folks: you're not doing it right, and nobody ever was.

Fuck scrum, it's not agile, never was and never will be.
>There are a bunch of barriers, you don't have to go far to see people asking if pull requests would be welcomed for a particular feature.

That isn't a barrier and you don't need to do that. You just implement the feature in your own fork. I can tell from this you're not a developer because this is a common confusion. When you ask for a pull request you're not trying to get through a social barrier. You're actually asking someone else to do you a huge favor by taking time out of their day to review your code for free. And then if they merge it you're also asking them to maintain it for free and fix future bugs in it for free. Normally you would have to pay to get other developers to do that.

>but it is a business

No, this is false and you're getting confused again. Some businesses can contribute by volunteering their employees' time, but that's different from the project itself being a business. The project itself (as in the collection of all the contributors) isn't deciding what those people are paid or what they work on. The project itself doesn't have the customers or answer to them, the business does and that's a separate entity both legally and functionally. Do you see how this is fundamentally different from a business?

>I don't think it gets a pass just for being open source, any more than the linux kernel or Wikipedia does.

A pass on what, exactly? You're coming back to this combative language again, please stop.
Shouldn't require any tweaking, the sliding window should be able to work on sqlite files just as well as the game content files used in this article. If you want something smarter and very much more sqlite optimized, you probably want to look at litefs. https://github.com/superfly/litefs
Personally I think bosses like it because they don't have to pay their part of payroll taxes on it. Employees like it because they don't have to pay income tax on it.

So, it's a tax scam at best. Instead, as a few (and you) have said, just pay them right to begin with. Tax shouldn't feel like gouging if you're getting paid appropriately anyway.

Another way to look at it: Why force these people to cheat on taxes while letting the rich not pay taxes at all?

Well, who is in the position to change an Agile process in any company? If we have 20 years of using this system, we should have enough feedback from developers and the business to refine what Agile is. I can tell you very few developers have input on the overall process in most places.

It's not evolving into a better system because it's under the new bureaucratic regime of project managers. They are an institution now within the tech industry and are a self preserving entity. It's idiosyncratic for them to change this bureaucracy.

If a developer were to say, "here is what I think about the process that governs me", the governors will laugh you out of the room with a delicate smile and sweet fuck you along the lines of "woah, that's great feedback!".
I imagine that one could develop this further into both ends being cross-platform but the readme seems to really strongly define it is solely built to transfer files from Windows to Linux. If that's all you need for internal tool, that's all you build (and test).

Browsers still fail at being good document viewers:

1. For a long time now Chromium didn't support MathML. It's only coming back in the upcoming version.

2. Firefox's implementation of MathML is buggy: <http://0x0.st/o7HQ.16.mov>.

3. There is no CSS property to enable grouping of threes of digits in large numbers, so you need to put spaces into the markup, resulting in them being included when copied and search discovering completely different numbers than the ones you want to present.

4. And just try making this table reproducing the proper alignment of numbers in HTML: <https://practicaltypography.com/samples/number-grid-after.pd...>. It's hell.
Lots of people all working on it, competing & on collaborating with each other. Each one building on the work of the last.
Doesn't take much to go exponential, given enough of this and enough headroom.
There is a huge difference between running infrastructure on behalf of a single, well-intentioned business and running infrastructure that needs to deal with high density, adversarial multi-tenancy.

Not saying they can’t do it if they really committed, but the premise of the question that “they already have technical expertise” is flawed.

Btw, this is the similar learning curve that Google went through (and arguably still going through) when they decided that they could expose their awesome infra to external customers.
".. it must ever be a parasite on human cultural production for it to gain what you call "knowledge"

This thing goes way deep into AI theories, but probaly AGI and artificial beings self-consciusness are two different problems. I think when the second problem gets solved, the human cultural production would no longer be necessary to "create" new AI / AGIs.
Thanks! Does it work Windows to Windows also?
I've never been a practicing Buddhist but did see a therapist that incorporated Zen into his overall framework. I stopped seeing him after some time, because I realized while he was effective in helping me understand things from my past/childhood and how they were manifesting now, those didn't lead to actual answers, and when I'd press on this point, it'd end in some sort of parable that I realized was similar to the thought ending cliches I grew up around in an evangelical family.
It likely would if the same _practices_ were used. I run a dairy farm and homestead (in the modern sense of that word). These results are strikingly similar to what is seen in regenerative agriculture and what we have seen in practicing this alt-ag methodology.
Long ago, I botched a mobo BIOS update (Abit BH6), and for the reasons you mentioned/my incompetence, couldn't do another write through the floppy method.

Sold it on eBay (disclosed as such).

Later sent a message to the buyer asking if/how they fixed it. They shared that they did: with a similar mobo, booted the good one up, hot-swapped the EEPROMs and then ran the BIOS update on the bad chip.

Smart.
It's because a lot of agile is just plain stupid in real world use.

For example, story points are always being converted back to wall time because in the real world you have resources who can work x amount of hours and you need to plan around that.

What's the point of using an intermediate unit?
"irrevocable" isn't the 1.0a problem, "authorized" is. BRP OGL specifically rewrites that section (section 10 there) to explicitly make products published from older versions retain the older license - you can sell a product published with an older BRP OGL. The authorization question with Hasbro's OGL is whether 1.0a products lose their license because Hasbro allegedly deauthorizes it in 1.1.

Also their license FAQ spells out the Arthurian limits (you can, just not commercially with their system in a BRP OGL product).
Move slowly and get used to having the funds. Open an account at TreasuryDirect.gov (Assuming you are American) and use that to buy 26-week t-bills. Observe the balance and accrued interest each month. When the bills mature your attitude will be more relaxed, your risk appetite will be more well defined, and there may be some better investment opportunities
That's a petty interpretation, it's a big leap reading "don't send your unique identity to strange servers by default" as "never use private keys, always use passwords instead."

Nothing about that config snippet precludes using private keys for known servers.

> So many of the startups being backed are building things that either have a very minimal impact or they're based on technologies that are so far out they won't be commercially viable for 20 years, if ever.

Sometimes I wonder if this the true cost of finding successful breakthroughs. Presumably lessons will be learned from these failures that will eventually lead to the successful implementation down the line. It's not a start up but if for example Meta collapses then it will still have done a lot of good for advancing VR tech.

Speak for yourself. I run a very battery efficient browser - running on a very efficient processor architecture that gets 10+ hour battery life that I don’t think I’ve ever heard the fan once - an M1 based MacBook Pro 16 inch.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail had been released 4 years prior so it's likely that the dangers of killer rabbits were still fresh in the minds of the public, and President Carter was just acting defensively.
Definitely not everyone's cup of tea, but IMO Path of Exile helped me understand just how much spaghetti a code base can actually contain, with all of its interwoven mechanics and calculations. People spend hours theory crafting and optimizing a character to make numbers get bigger, and it takes a lot of planning skill to, well, plan all of it.
