This is also what worries me about fusion energy.

They say we'll have "unlimited" energy but it's really not unlimited, it can be petawatts but it's still finite, and people will invent new devices that will drain all of the fusion fuel as well instead of powering our current lifestyle.

People won't own cars, they'll fly themselves everywhere because it's "okay" to consume megawatts per person, and we'll end up draining all the oceans of their deuterium.

It's exactly what happened when oil was discovered, it was thought of as an "unlimited" energy source in the days of horses.

On the plus side fusion energy is carbon-clean, but its fuel is most certainly finite.

I'd like this to, but to me it's still unclear whether Bitcoin's potential will be just as a reserve currency and store-of-value (like Gold), or also as a unit of account and medium of exchange (like the dollar). I'm more confident in the former and less on the latter.
Presumably the diets of lifestyle changes reverse with those lifestyle change reversals.
> [R]eal, actual nature bears fatal risks for anyone, if you are unprepared, uninformed and not cautious.

I think if you read to the end, you'll see that's not really the conclusion. The author concludes with:

> Repeat these numbers on the trail at dawn when you hear the huffing of a bear on the cliffside below. Repeat them as you cross the river and feel it tug on your ankles. Repeat them when the lightning cracks the sky above you, strikes the rock beside you, lights the world up violet around you, reminding you for just a second that this is all just random and it is not the Oklahomans in jean shorts trekking into the Grand Canyon with cans of cola in hand who are fools, but it is you; you were a fool to believe that this is all some ordered system.

Your example is telling:

> But every year we have countless helicopter rescues of utterly unprepared tourists surprised by Alpine weather, and luckily not often but still regular casualties. So common, that "stupid {German,Italian,Youcallit} tourist getting himself nearly killed because he thought mountaineering was a Sunday afternoon hike" has become a huge meme in our country.

Sure, but in the last few years, we've lost some of the world's best alpinists. No one could accuse Ueli Steck of being unprepared. And it's not just about the risks of dong the cutting edge: while Marc Andre Leclerc is known for his daring free solo ascents, the way he died was in an avalanche on a regular rappel route, after the daring ascent was over. Tommy Caldwell has said that since he's become a father, he doesn't climb under snow pack any more: not because he's not prepared but because it is impossible to be prepared, at least not completely.

I think that's the point of this essay. I've got a WFR, lots of climbing and hiking experience, participated in a bunch of rescues, and in general I play it pretty safe and am very well-prepared. But ultimately, nature is just beyond preparation to some extent.
Snowpack is already at 85% of April 1st averages (and almost double the average for this point in the season). All of that snow will be melting in early summer. I expect they're going to keep the reservoirs less filled than usual in the Spring, to ensure there is capacity to avoid getting running into issues like Oroville reservoir did a few years back.
I also have a nostalgia for monochrome monitors, so I figured out how to turn mine into one:

Yes. Why should cryptocurrencies allow fraudulent money transfers to North Korea and not banks that can do them more cheaply? Hint: there is no good reason. Regulation will catch up.

For those of us who are not devs writing applications, I found this section useful: https://openziti.github.io/docs/quickstarts/services/#zero-t...

For access to my home network, I use two things:

1. Wireguard

2. An identity aware SSO proxy by Buzzfeed[0]

I really like Buzzfeed's SSO implementation, but it hasn't received updates in a while and doesn't seem to be maintained to me. I could absolutely see OpenZiti replacing this for me.

I really like Wireguard and have absolutely no complaints with it -- but if OpenZiti could replace this as well and match the performance I get on Wireguard I would consider implementing it at home (and would probably be a happy enough customer to push for it at work).

One non-typical use-case I use Wireguard for is being able to do remote game streaming to my Windows hosts via Moonlight+Nvidia Gamestream. Would anyone be able to (anecdotally or scientifically) share how well a use-case like this would work with OpenZiti?

Study appears to have been conducted in China.

NIH abstracts mention in addition to the intermittent fasting the use of a "chinese medical nutrition therapy" diet. Earlier abstract from Jul 2022 says the treatment group did IF 5 days and then 10 days of habitual eating, repeated for a 90 day (3 month) period.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36192924/ (Jul 2022 - 3 mo treatment, 3 mo follow-up)
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36515429/ (Dec 2022 - 1-year follow up)

Presumably we won't know "within 5 years" until four years from now (and that assumes the participants in the original study can still be reached by then).
Sure, have pity with those with too much money. Of course. Because these people have not chosen deliberately to play with their money. I know there is this sort-of-equivalence of hard drug addicts and gamblers. But in my book, these are all grown up people, that have decided to take a risk to maximize their assets. Not my bussiness at all when they loose the bet.
They take a cut of trades. No one external actually knows if they are using deposits for other purposes
I'm wary of fad diets, but why shouldn't IF be sustainable long term?

Many groups (e.g. for religious reasons) do fasting regularly, and have done it for millennia.

At worst, IF just limits your food intake, but it does not seem like it would provide you with an unbalanced diet.
> but there's no way to know whether it's showing you junk or not.

My experience so far is that it's light on junk, and the junk is really obvious.
Why 5-10 years? Hype cycle, or do you think there will be changes in the tech that could make it useful to these institutions at that point?
Sure, but funds leaving were deposits held for others, so outflows reduce assets & liabilities in perfect sync.

That results in no decrease in book value, so word choice "bleeding" a bit of a reach to create extra drama.
You'll be waiting for an economic reason for the restaurants, not because gas is better. [1]

When Eric Ripert, the chef of Le Bernardin, renovated the kitchens of his Manhattan apartment and Hamptons beach house, he nixed the gas, instead choosing sleekly powerful induction cooktops by Miele and Gaggenau.
“After two days, I was in love,” Mr. Ripert said. “It’s so much more precise than watching a flame. You can really focus on your cooking and pay attention to what’s inside the pan, not what’s underneath it.”

He hasn’t yet converted his restaurant kitchens.

“It would be a big expense to replace stoves that still work well, but, if the gas stove broke, I’d consider it,” he said, adding that he thought his cooks would adapt quickly. “After a few days, they’d all love it.”
That is just what happened with the chef Justin Lee of Fat Choy in Manhattan, although he wasn’t expecting it.

When he opened the Chinatown restaurant in September 2020, there was no gas hookup. “Most restaurants wouldn’t open without gas, but we couldn’t wait,” he said, “so we had to find our way with electric.” It was a lot easier than he had anticipated, and he’s come to prefer induction for its consistency at high and low temperatures.

On the gentlest setting, he confits garlic and other ingredients for his XO sauce without having to watch it. “You can walk away, and it won’t ever burn,” he said.

“For us, it’s a workhorse,” he said. “It can boil water in minutes, which, for cooking noodles, is significantly faster than gas.”

Mr. Lee discovered other advantages over the summer: His kitchen did not get as ferociously hot as it would have with a gas stove, and the absence of open flames also led to a decrease in burns.

Well, the Black folks weren't allowed to move to the white areas, regardless of class or income, so even if the story of "that desire" were purely as rosy as you paint it (spoiler: it wasn't), the resulting migration would still be accurately titled "white flight".

Markets can remain irrational longer than rational people can remain solvent. Bitcoin made no sense to me in 2007 and I have yet to see any compelling argument for crypto in general and as an investment it makes as much sense as “investing” in checks. But while I feel confident I’m correct, if I’d tried to bet against it, I’d have lost a lot of money. Doesn’t mean that I’m wrong though.
I think there's a much simpler/happier issue in play - MBAs. Games from big studios are increasingly being directed and driven by people who have zero interest in games and just view it as a means to revenue. So games are being rushed out the door prematurely in an unimaginably buggy state, development rushed such that repairing the mess created (after launch of course) is an endless series of half-working duct tape and shoe strings, designed to coerce endless DLC purchases, and more.

And this is happening at the same time that game development tools have become richer than ever, asset stores have enough assets to feel effectively infinite, you can self publish to a market of hundreds of millions, and even if you do need/want funding there are options: crowd funding, Epic Mega Grants, etc. So for a skilled developer it's never been easier (or a better time) to go independent.

This is driving an endless brain drain of bigger game companies making the problems even worse, while at the same time small companies are starting to produce some amazing games. To give a relevant example here, a couple of guys left Ubisoft. They formed Amplitude Studios, and they then created Endless Legend [1], which I would highly recommend as an alternative to Civilization.

But the story doesn't end there. Because Endless Legend / Amplitude were so successful, they were bought by Sega. And Sega knew exactly what could make their games even better. Oh yeah, MBAs baby! So now Amplitude has turned into just another "big" studio, and their latest product Humankind, ostensibly in the exact same vein as Endless Legend/Civilization, is a mess. Now we just need a couple of Amplitude employees to leave and form Next Good Game Company Studios. Ah, the cycle of life!

>but our growing city likes to model its policies after CA policies

Who elects your city leaders? This is your own fault. If your city liked to model its policies after Russian policies, or Saudi Arabian policies, would that be those countries' fault?
The number and quality of online distractions is ... increasingly tiresome.

Even with adblock on my principle tablet browser, sites such as the Washington Post leave large whitespace gaps within an article where ad spots have been removed. I've counted through these manually at times and believe that there are frequently around ten, possibly more, ads withing the body of a story with not many more paragraphs than that.

Even before we get to sidebars, pop-ups, and other interstitials, it just makes me tired.

Reader Mode can remove many of these though even then some additional tuning may be required. A further problem is the lack of standardisation in how articles are structured, making assumptions about how to apply formatting also fraught.

(As a concrete example: I'm fond of bolding lead-lines of articles with a drop cap. Normally this can be applied to "p:first-of-type:first-line", except where, say, and article wraps each <p> tag in a <div> or other element. Mind that this is a self-imposed problem. Point is that if document-structure conventions were followed, I'd be able to consistently use a cleaner styling. It isn't, so I cannot.)
just make one word caps and divide them with a digit or two and a symbol or two instead of spaces
Yes I've been evaluating Git GUIs (TortoiseGit being my front runner right now) and I hope that will at least reduce the number of botched conflict resolutions.

Have you used Google recently? It went from the only thing one would use, to utter trash now.
Part of it is lack of monetization and advertising. We have forgotten what technology is capable of if it's not overrun by business people.

For now no one paied ChatGPT to "recommend" you one over the other or engaged in SEO to game the system.

Once that happens it will just as trustworthy as a Google search and smart people will develop a sense of mistrusting the system just like they would a smooth talking sleazy car sales person, who is also a subject matter expert.

Unless we are directly paying Microsoft I don't see a way around it and probably not even then.
Obviously. [0] In less than 10 days of making that prediction, the first phase of that prediction is becoming true.

Now the second phase is the inevitable monetization of ChatGPT, which forces companies completely basing their entire business on the API will soon have to make money rather than use it for free or using it and making a loss.

I've spent the last 7 years using SSH to get onto a prod box a few dozen times. Less than once a month. When I do have to get on the box, we use signed keys that expire in 24 hours (a manager or SRE is required to sign the key if you need to get on a box).

The article is talking about the scaling issues of SSH access via jump boxes or bastions. I'd argue that a better solution to scaling SSH access is to invest in tooling that makes SSH access unnecessary for most of your team. Centralized logs, error reporting, distributed traces, etc. are fairly well solved for most installations. Interactive access to prod (e.g. running DB migrations) requires a little more investment, but tools like ECS Exec make that fairly accessible without requiring SSH access.
Yeah it's tricky politically, because suburban life would be dramatically more expensive without the massive subsidies.

However, I do think there is a growing body of urbanites who are pushing for change. California recently passed SB9, hopefully the first of many densification bills.

Perhaps if a leader-state like California gets far enough down the road for the economic benefits to start accelerating, greed will work in the urbanists' favor
The bloom is highly overstated (probably due to photographs). The monitors were not very bright compared to monitors today, and since there was no shadow mask the dot was very sharp. Color monitors could have significant bloom however, depending on their quality.

What you may be thinking of is the persistence effect which is very long with the green phosphors.
Simple bayesian reasoning is not the same thing as "finding out the real causes of and working fixes for real world cases of harm attributed to gas". It's like a software developer saying "that's easy, just ....." about anything with technology. It's always easy in theory. And it's always more complicated in practice.
If only there were a career path for someone who's technically competent and also able to interact pleasantly w/ human beings.
What's that management thing you're talking about ?
This is one of the situations where "you are the product" applies.

They would prefer to produce an inline response because it keeps you from going to another website. This way they don't have to share you with a third party. Which ultimately means they can show you more ads or have more time to find some other way to monetize you.

Remember, search engines have been employing this strategy for some time with a variety of inline responses to many searches. The open web is generally the least profitable thing they can direct you to. ChatGPT simply represents an expansion of the business strategy that's already in place when you do a currency conversion or ask for hotel rates or ask a question that has FAQ structured data associated with it on some website. All about keeping you on the page/in network for as long as possible.

It doesn't matter if the classical notion of web search is better or is what you really want. They will invest in this model instead if it's more profitable (and to be fair they will attempt to make this model better so that it compares favorably to web search for users, this just isn't the primary goal).

I even put on my seat belt when I realise I've forgotten something in the car. I get in, put the seat belt on - for all the reasons you gave - and then I get my umbrella or phone or whatever it is (which can be a pain with the seat belt on, but I'm doing this for society so I make sure to take my responsibilities seriously) and then take off the seat belt and get out, safe in the knowledge that I dealt with all that minuscule risk in the best way possible.

Do I need to add /s or was that clear enough? The idea that I should put a seat belt on while looking at a car inside a car dealership just in case I forget to put on my seat belt when I'm going for a drive (keeping in mind that all modern cars have seat belt indicators) is such a reach that I'm aghast that you bothered me and anyone else who has the misfortune to read your comment with such low quality nonsense.

You believe in taking the vaccine under all circumstances, we get that, but to provide this kind of garbage - and it is garbage - to justify it, only makes your position seem weaker than it was before you wrote that. I'm am not a student and this is not the 4th floor common room for new undergrads.

What other medical interventions do you believe we should provide to people who are at close to zero risk from the maladies they protect against? Please peruse this list[1] and tell us all which we should or shouldn't get, or maybe we should get them all just in case. Perhaps tell everyone why they should get the Yellow Fever vaccine even though they are not at risk of contracting it usually. You never know, perhaps they'll bump into someone just back from an area with Yellow Fever and contract it and we'll have to call in Dr House and his team…

Both. There are ongoing developments in Decentralized Finance and Identity Networks on Ethereum that are reinventing more parts of the current financial system, as well as the shift to proof-of-stake that is making Ethereum more scalable and efficient.

I focus on Ethereum just because it's the center of innovation in crypto nowadays. Bitcoin has only incrementally changed its software throughout the years and only gains more use as a store-of-value as demand for it increases (hype cycle).

Sounds a bit semi-urban to me if there's good transit connections.

But yeah to your point I don't think homeless prompted people to leave urban areas, people leaving urban areas caused homelessness. The causality is reversed, is my point.

The reason people left, as alluded to above, was largely government subsidy + good marketing/lobbying by suburb developers, auto companies, and road builders.
