It's not about purity, it's about removing carbon from the atmosphere. All the existing industrial scale hydrogen production gets hydrogen from carbon based fuels, using other energy. There doesn't appear to be an option at this time for producing carbon at any reasonable scale without using carbon fuel sources. If we get fusion power, really cheap power, instead of splitting water using that free energy we could just directly run electric cars. There is a cynical pushing of "green hydrogen" from the companies that want to preserve their internal combustion industrial infrastructure (notably Japan), and from carbon fuel producers but calling the result 'green hydrogen'. The issue is there is no clear pathway. When/if that happens, there's still the issue of the infrastructure to manage carrying around hydro to refuel or making it at the source. There's no there there.
Do you have experience getting the cops involved in something like this? Because from what I've read, it's at best hit or miss depending on jurisdiction and circumstance.

That's not to say that a citizen's arrest is a good idea, mind you. Just that getting the authorities involved may not be effective.
Rather than a subjective cultural "quality", I think there's an issue where folks are dependent upon technology and that handicaps their ability to learn or perform advanced skills.

In the US, younger students are performing worse in mathematics than previous cohorts; calculators aren't a singular cause but their ubiquity does encourage a mentality both from children and adults that basic arithmetic and even algebra or geometry aren't important, which then becomes worse performance by older students who lack the fundamentals.

I'd be interested to see a study on how often folks are "lost" and how that was defined: if someone's phone lost power or crashed mid-journey, then the person would qualify as lost because they don't know where they are or how to get out of where they are, but even with the phone _telling_ them where to go, do they really know where they are or how to get out of where they are? Or are they just a simple child being given and following directions from a parent, without any concept of what those directions mean?

From the pricing widget:

You are begging the question though. Is there really a problem where masses of Florida teachers are sneaking inappropriate books to young children? Are there dozens of them that won't discuss appropriate reading materials with the parents of their students or their administrators?

Of course there aren't, it's a dumb political stunt chasing a moral panic.
The awful miss-representation of what this tool is in the intro video.

“You know that tune that has been stuck in your head? Set it free!” - by… not actually being able to compose or select or affect the melody or the harmony?

You can pick the genre and the key. Is that the “tune” that has been stuck in your head: “hip-hop in A minor”?
> Or, you can also easily build a bijection between a finite number of symbols and N. That's just an encoding like ASCII or UTF-8. Therefore, the set of names is countably infinite.

You've confused two different senses of "a finite number of symbols". The requirement is that it takes a finite number of symbols to write down any given number, not that it takes a finite number of symbols to write down every number at once. (Though in fact that also takes a finite number of symbols; it is the precise meaning of ℝ.)

Symbols are, in their simplest interpretation, bounded two-dimensional curves; there is no danger of running out of them before we run out of numbers.

I agree you need to be careful to only add high quality gems - but that holds true for the deps for any project.

You can also fork/vendor the gem and fix it, vs rewriting the whole thing from scratch. If a gem is abandoned you don't need to nuke it - you just take ownership of the code. Essentially if you use a gem you are saying "this code is as good as our code" so just maintain it just like it is your code.

The practical mechanisms to handle stalking like this are restraining orders and trespassing laws. Trespassing is the easier of the two to utilize. If it's your land, you can tell the police who's allowed on it. Once either of those things has been set up, the police can arrest the offender the next time he shows up.

Beyond that, move somewhere with a strong castle doctrine, where you can own a firearm.

This isn't a new problem for societies and there are good solutions, which have been eroded over time. If you can't shoot intruders in your house without consequence, you are living in a failing state. If the police can't be relied upon to keep repeat offenders away from you and your property, you are living in a failing state.
I most certainly get paid a lot more than the person behind the counter does. If it's a person who did something helpful and the person gets the $, then I'm happy to tip. If they can give me some attention (e.g., not chatting away with someone behind the counter while I just stand there), I'm happy to tip.
I'll agree with you that I like the GPL License (I think you meant that, when you mentioned GNU) more than the MIT. I think we, at least broadly, agree on the definitions of Guild, Union, and Company.

You haven't convinced me that this is a thing desirable or plausible. You keep mentioning benefits that I feel I already have. You haven't convinced me that the technical output would be better than the current system. You haven't convinced me that there is a place for this in our current world, or that their is a reasonable growth path for the idea. In fact, the discussion is largely abstract. I wish you all the best with your idea, maybe there is something here than just isn't getting through to me right now.

It is actually slower than Ubuntu which can be see with the recent git update BUT if you know you need this patch or update it enables you to achieve that with overlays pretty easy and fast and if you know what you are doing you can reduce the rebuild amounts to near zero. You also need to remember that behind NixOS there is not a big corp like canonical but mostly a community with way to much time.
If you ever tried to build an Ubuntu package with a custom patch you will know how painful it is and unmaintainable. Not with nix. Easy maintenance included with automatic, atomic rebuilds and applying the patch to the next software version if the source code didn't change.
I don't know all the mechanisms behind how it happened. I expect indirectly yes, as employees choose to work where they are paid highest (if possible) and employers putting the pre-calculated percentages on the receipt / point of sale that match those desires influence tips. You have to keep up with employee expectation to keep and retain employees and setting those expectation at the point of sale as a voluntary option is an easy win.
Don't dismiss PLA. It is a great material, it is strong, cheap and easy to print. Its greatest weakness as far as I'm concerned is heat resistance.

But there is a trick! You can anneal PLA in an oven, which will give it heat resistant properties similar to ABS, maybe a little better. It can be done with regular PLA, but the print will deform. If you don't need a very precise part, it can be sufficient, you can also compensate for the deformation by tweaking the model. Or you can use a specialized (and more expensive) filament like Volcano PLA that deforms very little during annealing.

Sometimes, ABS is called for, but it is not "better" than PLA. Especially after you consider the extra hassle printing it.

For UV resistance, AFAIK, neither ABS nor PLA are good. You probably should use ASA instead, which is like ABS but better in almost every way, UV resistance in particular. Unfortunately, it also releases nasty stuff, though it smells less. Or you can use PETG. Not as good as ASA, but easier to print and supposedly less toxic.

No longer true. Iphones 0-days are cheaper than Android 0-days.
This is one of those things where if you actually plan to port DOOM, you will figure it out pretty quickly on your own, by just glancing at the actual code.

It's pretty common at that level to "just read the source", or to at least look how others use the interface.

Well, that was certainly interesting!

I was curious what the current state of things is, so I had a look around LWN. It looks like, as of 2020, the kernel's post-2038 support is essentially done[0]. With kernel 5.15, XFS' support for post-2038 dates is no longer experimental[2]. That seems to be last mention of post-2038 support settling out in the kernel. The musl libc also has switched over, in a breaking change[1].

glibc seems to have taken a much more nuanced—and much more complicated—approach: You specify, as a `#define` (or compiler command-line `-D`), that you want a 64-bit time, and all existing types (like time_t) are updated accordingly (by redefining them as aliases to ex. __time64_t)[3].

This reminds me a lot of how glibc handled the switch to 64-bit file sizes on 32-bit systems: You either defined `_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE` to access to 64-bit types & calls (like off64_t), or you defined `_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64` to redefine the existing types & calls to their 64-bit equivalents [4].

I wonder what the current status of post-2038 work is for Debian?

[0] https://lwn.net/Articles/838807/, "After years of work, the kernel itself is now completely converted to using 64-bit time_t internally…"

[1] https://musl.libc.org/time64.html, "musl 1.2.0 changes the definition of time_t, and thereby the definitions of all derived types, to be 64-bit across all archs. … Individual users and distributions upgrading 32-bit systems to musl 1.2.x need to be aware of a number of ways things can break with the time64 transition, most of them outside the scope and control of musl itself."

[2] https://lwn.net/Articles/868221/, "XFS now supports filesystems containing dates after 2038. This support has been present for a while but is no longer considered experimental. "

[3] https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Y2038ProofnessDesign, "In order to avoid duplicating APIs for 32-bit and 64-bit time, glibc will provide either one but not both for a given application; the application code will have to choose between 32-bit or 64-bit time support, and the same set of symbols (e.g. time_t or clock_gettime) will be provided in both cases."

I've faced that after moving to SF. Stopped eating out unless its a actually special high end place or something.

I was in a rush and didn't put a tip, I found a hair in my fried rice and the tofu was not fully cooked. I'd ordered from that place a couple times before and its like $22 with tip for just Thai red curry with rice..

The prices are insane. Even if I made 10x what I make, I wouldn't eat out unless its really special.
Yes, thus higher tippers subsidize lower tippers by reducing the list price of goods.

If tipping didn’t exist and were instead embedded in wages, the employer would just raise the list prices commensurately.

There’s a fair argument to be made that restaurant wages would decline in aggregate without tipping though. Certainly there would be both winners and losers
I think there is a large distinction between an un-replicated statistical meta-analysis and 1st,2nd and 3rd laws thermodynamics for example. I'm not sure it makes sense to call the first one "science". I think, given how much we have benefited from actual science, we should hold the term in higher esteem. Let's not not allow it to become a magic word intended to convince others to believe everything one says.
You're right on all fronts, my only comment is that there is a lot of room for product improvement though.

Of course adding those items would cost even more, so it is a bit of a race to zero. That said, if you can get a following by homebuilders and into every single new housing project, it might be worth it. I'm sure having some sort of inside track advantage there would be necessary too. None of which I personally have, but as an end user of this stuff, I'd be more than happy to support and provide feedback on.

One thing I've never understood is the argument for tipping. It has always been "because servers are being paid less than minimum wage." Which the issue with that is that that varies state by state. Most west coast states do not have a separate tipped wage[0]. So the question is, why do we tip at all on the west coast[1]? Worse, it seems to be expanding and increasing in size[2]

The followup argument is often "well they are still being under paid." While I can buy this argument, I do not think the solution is tipping. Because if they are underpaid so are non-tipped jobs like the fast food worker, janitor, grocery worker, or movie theater employee. All tipping does is divide these people and reduce the pool for a larger collective to bargain for a higher minimum wage.

I feel we have this collective belief that tipping is bad (it sure confuses my foreign friends, who sometimes get dirty looks because they didn't tip), but once we've effectively created the criteria necessary to abolish it[3], we still maintained the cultural aspect of it: that we __need__ to tip (often thinking we'll get our food spat in if we don't). I've had others get upset with me for these opinions (I do tip btw) but I don't understand how we can think tipping shouldn't exist but continue in this direction. It's also interesting that in early America we thought of tipping as akin to bribery (I still believe this and I think this is common). It also has a history with slavery[4]

[2] When I was a kid (some 20 years ago) 10% was common for a standard tip. Now most places have an 18%/20%/25% option on screens. Some even higher! The second image in the article even shows a 30% tip

We can regulate this in a variety of ways

The point of sale system can be shamed or regulated, or have codes for the merchant type that dictates whether they have the option of doing a compulsory tipping screen

The payment processor can dictate all or cut them off, payment processor can also be regulated from on high

We can also make viral articles shaming a random shop for their behavior. This is not normal now but we can make it so.

We can realistically address the conflict of interest from service workers wanting more tips that are shaming consumers for not tipping a certain amount. We pretend that because they’re closer to the environment then their thoughts should be more privileged, when it is so convenient to just gamble on getting more tips that its a conflict of interest.

And of course the crazier thought of raising wages, but we should stick to things we can control

There's one key problem, making hydrogen without creating more carbon in the atmosphere. If they solve that, then it's worth considering. If we have fusion providing endless electric energy (which could be used to split water), then we could just use it to fuel electric cars too. There's the classic problems of lack of energy density, and hydrogen fires not being visible. I think we can probably make hydrogen containment systems better, and figure out how to make fires visible. To me it all comes back to getting the fuel. When we can do that we can consider it.
That is essentially correct, and we actually do call many different numbers "0" in different contexts, but it's not necessary for any two numbers to share a name this way. You can give them all unique finite names with an infinitely large alphabet if you prefer.

> I do however have an unused Ledger X laying around. Does anyone knows if the Ledger X could act as a security key? Thanks in advance.

I don't have a X but I've got a S which I only use for U2F (well, webauthn now really). Chrome deprecated and now removed U2F support so moving forward it's webauthn but U2F devices are compatible with webauthn.

So yes it works. I use it to log on to several services and I use to log on using SSH.

Given the horror stories involving PayPal over the years, I wondered why anyone would link a bank account to a PayPal account. I guess I now understand why.
Hesitant agree, but we must also keep the opposite side of the coin in mind. Any meaningful cure for aging would be suicide of the species unless we also have birth control figured out and in place everywhere. We'd need massive programs to control the size of a population that doesn't age and die.

Once you start thinking just a little bit about this problem it becomes increasingly horrifying. If we cured aging today, how long before India or China enacts forced sterilization to prevent their populations from starving to death? How long before countries start to cull parts of the population? How could we possibly cope with Africa, where women have 5 kids in the hope one lives?

Famine like the world has never seen. Energy wars over the last scraps of land you can put solar on. Fresh water in the middle east would be unobtainable and spark some of the worst wars ever.

Then all the carbon emissions from an ever-larger population would destroy a climate that just barely survived the 2020s.

Curing aging creates a thousand times as many problems as it solves. Curing aging without already having a population control system in place globally could very easily destroy us.

I think we will eventually solve aging one way or another, but whether we can control the population of an entire planet I'm not so sure of.

And so should the tips. It makes no sense to tip someone who just hands you something from behind a counter.
