Ethanol is great for gas stations too. Your tank doesn’t go as far so you need to visit them more often.

Dunno how the complaints about ethanol = bad because it’s hygroscopic really are. Yeah, 100% ethanol will pull in atmospheric h2o, but in a gasoline+ethanol mix?

If anything, a small bit of ethanol helps “break the phase” and at least runs any moisture through your engine instead of a separate layer which is surely worse. Dunno if any unscrupulous gas stations/suppliers deliberately water down their ethanol laden gas just to earn some extra margin.
How can they avoid that someone perform a post-training from this model to obtain a different model that perhaps could not be protected by copyright?
I wrote a popular open source IMAP library in 2009 and even then the UID capability was there and widely adopted. My library relied on it 100%, completely ignoring sequence numbers, and I haven't received a single issue related to this.

It's not that new, it's not a hail mary, and it is very well supported.

> ...e-mail is mostly centered around protocols, whereas Matrix is mostly centered around specific libraries and clients (in my opinion)...

I disagree on this, but that's ok that we differ in opinion. Also, i would disagree about the crumbling of matrix - either in the protocol sense or app/client or even implementation sense. Could some areas like clients, UX, etc. improve? Sure, of course! Evolution of software need not end if there's room to improve. I'm an admitted fanboy of matrix, but even i know that its not perfect and i hope for continued improvement of matrix. As great as email has been for decades - warts and all - i simply have been expecting (hoping?) for something else by now. It need not be matrix - though again, i'm a fan - but i just meant i hope for open, decentralized mechanism, protocols that serve the world, and become as solid and de facto as email has been (again warts and all). In 10 years, i also beleieve email will still be around...Now, whether it will be considered as standard and universally-accepted as a means for communications, we'll see i guess.
'MBA types' have been punished for illegal activity, such as price-fixing, in the past. No one has granted them immunity from all future prosecution. So then what's your point?

That currently legal actions such as raising prices because a brand wants to move up-market should be made illegal?
When your turn corn into ethanol there is a byproduct "distiller grains" that is fed to animals. This is feed we would have to grow in some form anyway.

> Keep raising prices until you can’t, but in the mean time, make people poorer

That's a primitive model employed by people that are unable to think long term and at scale. More than half of US population lived in poverty in 1900. You know what changed that? "Keep raising prices until you can’t" combined with competition.

I want good products to have higher prices - this ensures I'll get access to even better products at lower price in the long term.

There are dangerous exceptions of course, we learned what those are long time ago: essential goods and monopolized industries. Arguably, housing is both. Candies and "going out to eat" are neither.

I couldn't care less if some billionaire is becoming 10x wealthier if I'm also becoming wealthier at the same time. Complain about inequality all you want, but if I was born 100 years ago, my diet would likely be shit. Today and can eat the same (or even better) food than the richest man in the world. Think about it for a minute.

I don't see it as "transferred risk". As individuals we already have people we trust and people we don't know. This system allows you to get trust in your dependencies without requiring to trust the specific rando that authored the specific library you want to use.

Yes ultimately someone you trust has to vouch for the library for you to trust it. That's unavoidable either way. Those systems only allow for that person to be anyone instead of just the author.

> That was all while companies reported revenue largely stayed the same during the trial period last year and even grew compared with the same six months a year earlier, according to findings released this week.

It’s really too soon to tell the results. As long as you don’t shut down, most companies’ revenue is affected more by what they did in the medium term past than the recent past.

Are there any metrics of productivity that companies could track which would be forward indicators rather than lagging indicators?
On the other hand, other parents may well wish to have access to cherished stories from their childhood to read to their own children _without_ first having to re-read them all in advance and prepare their own annotated versions.

I'm not even necessarily agreeing with the publisher's approach here, but I can certainly see there being a market for "modernised" versions of older books that tired parents can relax into reading aloud as a bedtime story, without that constant low-level unease about the possibility of some dodgy dated stuff popping up out of nowhere.

Though lots of ethanol in Canadian gasoline too. Hard to find any without 10% ethanol, even in jurisdictions with limited corn growing.

What caused that?

Or do the US subsidies on corn make it cost effective for Canadians to burn ethanol? If so, where’s my cheap E85? I’d run it in my old Corolla and see what happens.
That sounds like a recipe for working more hours and severely curtailing being able to do activities with other people.

My main objection to the 4-day workweek is it optimizes for people who want a shorter workweek with a possible tradeoff of curtailing the ability to take big chunks of time.
Using the word "entity" instead of "person" is a real, uh, choice here. Invocations of Michelangelo and machines creating themselves are not argued in good faith against anything I actually said.

Ultimately, no, I don't want to really get down to how you feel about copyright in the age of AI. That is a total distraction from how, completely independently from whether it's illegal, deciding your demo should be "hey let's use computers to replace a widely beloved artist who died too young and whose surviving family doesn't want us to" is wildly heartless.

>Plowing the soil is a terrible thing to do. Which is why no farmer has done it since around 1980.

Thats just not true. Plenty of farmers still plough. There has been some movement to lower disturbance low-till/ minimum-till systems for commodity crops, but we're still seeing soil carbon losses in agricultural soils in general. Number isn't going up and to the right, its still going down and to the left. I appreciate the importance of these kinds of systems, but I also appreciate that its not nearly as well adopted as one would think based on a survey of youtube videos. There is a very real departure from the Internets vision of farming and real-life farming in terms of practice.

I do agree however that carbon in the soils is the answer to most problems. The closest thing I came to witnessing a fist fight at work was between two 50+ yo scientists regarding aluminium/ alumina ions and their relationship with soil carbon. If geriatric scientsits are willing to raise fisticuffs over it, you should wonder why they care so much.
Thank you for your comment and the appreciation of that definition - and the paintings!

I also don't know what to think about AI-generated art yet, either. All of my paintings, I just keep painting until I have the feeling that they're finished. But: in my head, don't I simply remix previous things I saw and found beautiful, pigment and scratch movements that worked well, and all these things? Where's the difference? :-)

(I enjoy the act of smearing paint on canvasses, which makes a lot of difference for me – and there is no prompt.)
The Dutch East India Company is often considered integral to the history of capitalism, if not the start of capitalism itself, and was granted a 21-year monopoly on trade by the Dutch government.
> Lessor's employees with pricing responsibility

Nowhere in here did it say these people needing to submit the approvals had pricing responsibility. Even if you did have people manually create the prices you'd probably still require your front line leasing agents to submit approvals for listed prices. In this case, those with the pricing responsibility configured their tool to use the algorithmic pricing to automatically set the price instead of manually setting the prices, and deviating from that automatic price requires approval.

> who is typically the only party in the loop with the ability to settle the disagreement

This is not true as well. If the person does have pricing responsibility, they can just set the price to whatever. If they don't, it gets set to approvals for whoever does, which would probably be someone in that employee's management chain. And by management I mean the leasing company or management company or ownership. Not RealPage.

> Similarly, that store manager at Walmart you mentioned should have to seek approval from the same advisor that does prices for K-mart and Target

Once again, this isn't requiring approval from the RealPage Pricing Advsior. Nowhere does this article actually state the approval has to come from RealPage or that RealPage actually has the power to block price changes. This is requiring approval from whoever at the property actually has pricing responsibility, whoever that may be. Chances are it isn't the front of line leasing agent though.
Correction: W did this to give more power to agribusinesses and large-scale farmers who were drifting towards democratic socialism.

The market price is destabilized and undercut by government subsidies who put most farmers in the unenviable position of taking corporate welfare in order to make a living.

If the government got out of the business of picking winners and losers, and deciding who to rain money on and who to starve, the corn would be more expensive and sugar cane would be cheaper.
The biggest beneficiary of cartels are competitors that are outside the cartel. For example, OPEC enabled fracking to be profitable. To hurt fracking, they loosened their price fixing.

If RealPage were price fixing rather than simply facilitating price discovery, landlords would have no incentive pay for the service.

> With the increase in demand for corn for fuel usage, more fields are needed to plant the corn. Because the corn is for fuel, not food, food wouldn't have been planted in place of the corn had there not been fuel demand.

Spent corn used in ethanol production becomes livestock feed. Good quality feed, actually. Even with a surplus of spent corn, it can be dried and kept around until needed. Point being that it actually is food, just by proxy. More fields may be needed to scale for demand, but it wouldn't be linear. For all we know, the scale of corn production has a modest relationship with ethanol or is correlative and weakly causative.
Could you please show us the data you base this on?

I've just been to my local farm shop (I live in a rural area of the UK). Lots of turnips, leeks, potatoes, and other vegetables readily available. I suspect that the humble turnip, having fallen out of fashion, isn't bought in huge numbers by the supermarkets. A small uptick in demand may have accounted for their entire supply.

At the end of the day, my opinion of the content, and yours, are irrelevant to the publisher. We're drops in the bucket.

Sales are relevant, and sales are down. Another version that sells better has no impact on the copy on your shelf.

UID was introduced in IMAPv4 in RFC 1730 in 1994, and it's not optional for IMAPv4 or IMAPv4.1

I last wrote IMAP server-side software in 2000. Even then, I was not aware of any IMAP servers that didn't support UID. It was essential, as most clients expected it to be there.

There might still have been some at that point, but I'd be shocked if anyone is still running any IMAP2 or IMAP3 servers.
I'd love to hear what Facebook defines as "open" and "democratic".

Those costs are all distributed over the manufactured product, as opposed to requiring bespoke engineering and construction work on each installation. I would also argue that designing more energy efficient transportation is worth doing regardless of whether that includes solar or not.

I’m afraid I don’t understand. If you want one process to signal to another that data is available, you have the receiver block on a condition variable. When the sender writes its data it signals the condition variable. This is all handled by the kernel, no signal/interrupt is required. Or if you don’t want blocking, you can have a shared ring buffer, with the two processes interacting with it atomically.
What do people think that this push to get knowledge workers working back in the office mostly revolves around?

Is it big companies just have no way to really micro-manage hundreds of employees that are working at home so they want them in the office even if everybody doesn't like it?

Or is it they've invested into so much real estate and it looks dumb (and also kills its value) for large office parks to be sitting perpetually close to empty?

I can think of a few other reasons, but I'm interested in others on this one.

I worry about publication bias with these studies.

If a researcher finds the counter-intuitive results that working less leads to equivalent or better outcomes, it will be a headline.

If a researcher finds that working less leads to getting less work done, who would publish it? It won't get media headlines, but even scientific journals will not accept the results.

There are several factors in addition to ethanol, right? US livestock feed is primarily maize, but is that true in Canada? And the US has nearly 10x as many cattle. It seems like regulations are the primary driver in the border split, but not all of the regulations are about ethanol (also, Canada uses corn to make ethanol, too, in some areas).
Because Ukraine is in the EU? I don't know, you tell me.

This should be the highest rated response to the parent because it's overwhelmingly used as a low octane fuel booster additive, not a fuel.

If you have 85 gasoline and need to get it to 87, you blend it with an appropriate quantity of ethanol (octane rating 108.6, thanks for the correction).

Keep them in the fridge for longer, the carbonation will go down over time.

Also, try placing the bottle in a container or bowl, then hold another (slightly narrower container) over the top of the bottle. You should be able to catch all of the liquid in the bowl to pour into a glass.

If you added a bunch of sugar and/or flavoring into the secondary fermentation / bottles, you added too much. If you didn't add anything, then you didn't let the primary fermentation go long enough.
And more and more corporations would turn into dust with that kind of workforce. This is the fate of the west. Look at what happened to Intel, oracle, IBM etc which hired these H1B "coders" and middle management. I'm not complaining, just observing.
Yes this. I use Borg via ssh to an off-site server. With the proper ssh config (force-command, no pty, no forwarding etc) you can lock it down pretty well, especially since you can add an "append only" switch to the serve command that will refuse any modifications or deletions to existing snapshots.
Arguably civilisation and market are orthogonal so the marketisation and commodification under capitalism means there's very little civilisation as well.

The biggest trick capitalism ever pulled is convincing people that it's not a system of government where whoever has the most money, rules. The plague of rampant regulatory capture just further proves it.
Providing some basic financial privacy, not from the government but from the general public. Everything on chain is public.

Unfortunately we are shovelling so much in at the top of the stack these days, that while the foundations change much more slowly, there is just so much more to learn. And let's face it, low level or systems programming is just not as attractive and "shiny" as the latest web tech fad or creating a AI/crypto web startup, so I can see why the younger generations go for that instead of the foundational stuff, even if it's dissapointing.
