They certainly don't seem to be talking about suburban homes.

I wish I had gotten to know Peter better. I was lucky enough to have had a few amazing conversations with him. I hope this organization gains momentum. We are approaching a singularity of some sort - this could help keep the good parts of humanity at the core of our reality.
On the other hand, I think Brexit taught all the other euro countries that leaving is perilous and best avoided. Putin may have scored a Pyrrhic victory here.
Increasing salaries will increase the cost of goods and services, meaning that more savings are required. It doesn't necessarily balance.

In a way that's great news: I won't feel bad taking a sabbatical.

Mainly because we're not building houses fast enough right now. Although, I'm not even sure how much of a problem the city really has even then, it's kind of difficult to match up given the attitudes to renting here are like the attitudes to buying in the UK, and all the follow-on consequences of that.

However, "build millions of affordable houses really fast with almost no money" is something that this city, indeed the whole country and several adjacent countries, have done when they had to, so housing definitely isn't an insurmountable problem.

We're still regularly digging up the unexploded bombs from the same bombing runs that made rebuilding (with no money) necessary, but that's a local issue, you don't get so much of that in Washington or Mississippi. Or indeed (the original) Cambridge.
Exactly the same as me.

Up until then I could've built stories to defend him. He's shit to his employees buuuuuuut he built successful companies, so maybe the two are connected? But the pedo story was indefensible. There's no explanation other than his bad character.
This isn't building houses, designing drugs, or developing software. It's collecting and distributing money, which the government is fine at.
> It's useful, but not a staggeringly large amount for a typical house, that can easily use more than that on a single day's heating.

This article isn’t talking about typical houses of today. The typical future house should be a lot better insulated.
I had the same thing when I was playing Sonic Racing on iOS. I have it through Apple Arcade, but it’s so clearly designed as a pay to win game.

The quality of your racing is unrelated to the result, and your opponent’s behavior is either a previous race someone else did, or otherwise completely made up.
I remember having to wear nice shoes and nice pants for my first IT monkey job, then wearing out the toes and knees because I was always scurrying around on all fours chasing down problems. Like packets spilling out all over the floor because somebody forgot to terminate their 10BASE2.
gross.

performative IT like this is just saying "I'm willing to waste exceptional amounts of money because it implies I'm important".

conspicuous consumption via Rolls Royce arguably gives you actual, tangible differences, albeit not in the automotive equivalent of bandwidth and latency.

I'm asking out of practical curiosity, what do you actually use for that? Google authenticator only works on one device, which is a single point of failure. Authy allows multiple devices, which enables both backups and the defeat you described. What are some other ways?

Crappy sms 2FA is, in my experience, completely unavoidable, because many critical services have that as the only option.
Without even knowing much about trade or economics, this conclusion seemed inevitable from the start. The primary trading partner of the UK is obviously going to be the EU due to geographic proximity. Yet, the UK no longer has a seat at the table and thus must negotiate from a much weaker position being outside the EU block. How could this history have played out otherwise?

I came across this a few months ago (several ads offering their own downloads for blender from copycat sites). All their downloads were hosted on GitHub and had known viruses when uploaded to VirusTotal. I reported 3 of them to GitHub, but they only removed 2 of them immediately. Checking now, and the 3rd was finally removed, but it was left up for a while. Seems like searching for blender doesn't show me any ads until I scroll down for a while, so maybe they're temporarily fixing the issue by just not showing ads for blender? shrug
EU is clearly worse off as well. Sure, damage to the UK is notable, but that doesn’t imply that EU has won.

The notion that is not hard to review millions of advertisers does not align with reality.
Good work. I’m looking forward to the article.
As others are pointing out, decimal fidelity and "error" are different things. Any fixed point mantissa representation in any base has a minimal precision of one unit in its last place, the question is just which numbers are exactly representable and which results have only inexact representations that can accumulate error.

BCD is attractive to human beings programming computers to duplicate algorithms (generally financial ones) intended for other human beings to execute using arabic numerals. But it's not any more "accurate" (per transistor, it's actually less accurate due to the overhead).

With apologies to very hard working volunteers I'm sure, I have to say: I am bloody petrified of the state of LineageOS and the idea that after-market Android OSes have any relevance. This is really such a sad missed opportunity for Google to have created a useful boisterous place of innovation & interest, so far.

There are some good signs. LineageOS 19 & 19.1 has done a very good job getting Android 12L on all kinds of old phones, which shows incredible incredible promise that Android has never had before. Many predate Project Treble (hoisting drivers to run in userland, targetting an Android framework not-a-kernel (but kind of also it's own different kernel), rather than targeting the ever-moving kernel), but supposedly that will help keep things moving forward too.

And I'm probably just missing something or expecting to much... but there are sooo few moderately current phones supported. The LineageOS 20.0 nightlies[1] page has a few dozen phones. And the lion's share harken from considerably before 2020. I'm shopping for phones (with my current touchscreen cracked & digitizer quite on the fritz now), and this has been quite chilling an indicator.

> In control of more natural resources?

I mean… yeah. That's not really related to the thread's topic, though.

> why would you expect that the first-third world gap to not continue to normalize?

I don't think that's the criticism. "Blocking our wages" probably isn't increasing the wealth of the people in Cold War non-aligned countries: is the money going to them, somehow? The direct effect is that employers (= the people who would be paying the extra wages) don't have to spend as much money paying their employees. What knock-on effects would lead to that improving things for people?

The Alto came first in 1973.

Jobs saw the Alto (or similar) in 1979.

Unix GUI workstations (Apollo, Sun) appeared from 1980 onwards.

Apple's Lisa appeared in 1982, followed a year or so later by the Mac Series

MSFT's Windows 3.0 was their first GUI offering. That was in 1990. Windows 3.1 was released in 1992. Windows 95 that showed a real desktop metaphor was released in 1995.

I left off using MSDOS in 1990, and moved first to the similar command-line interface Unix Version 7. In 1991 I used my first Desktop GUI with AT&T's UNIX followed by Novell's Unixware which was equivalent to the (4 years later) Windows 95.

In 1992, I first got connected to the internet, mainly for the Usenet newsgroups, the odd email, and downloading software via FTP. I also played a bit with the new Mosaic web browser, but I didn't think it could go anywhere because nobody knew what sites were actually on the web. That problem persisted until search engines arrived a few years later.

Around 1992-1993 I had heard so much buzz about Windows 3.0 and Windows 3.1 that I thought I must have a look at it. I was shocked at how primitive and pretty much unusable that Windows 3.1 was.

Around that time I was starting to use a Sun Workstation which was very advanced (to my eyes) even though other more-advanced Sun users considered it a 'boat-anchor'. It had 1.7 GIG of storage at a time when most PC's would be lucky to have more than 50 Megabytes. And a 19" screen was practically unheard of in the Apple/Windows scenes of the time, mainly because they cost thousands of dollars.

Meanwhile, this new-fangled thing called Linux was starting to show up on the Unix-users radar. Every six months or so, I'd look at it, and go back to my Sun machines. But around 2001, I realised that Linux had caught up with my Sun systems, and was actually beginning to be better. That was when I changed my 'everyday system' to Linux, and have remained ever since.

I never went through a period of Windows being my 'everyday system'.

There are many strange assumptions here. Why in your example is the library open source? Even when it is, why would the developer be expected to know how to fix it? Why in your example is the bug in the developer's code a "one-line" bug fixable by "one glance at a stack trace"?

The point is that, if the bug's cause is not immediately obvious, some developers tend to jump to "it's the 3rd party library", because in many cases they can then claim to be unable to fix it, or offload the responsibility to the 3rd party.
It is. It's one of the reasons it's such an inept law: It refers to the concept of moderation in the context of "good faith" efforts, but fails to account for the influence of money in decisionmaking. This impacts all user-generated content, whether it be a social media post or an ad.

> you could just emulate console games for the rest of your life and in doing so only play games that were built as games, not exploitation machines.

And if you run out of console games to emulate, there is a thriving rom hack community that has created some truly astonishing games (New Super Mario World 2: Around the World, Hyper Metroid, etc.)
Maybe I should not have said efficiently, as it really understates it. It's like if someone gets hired to work full time and then only works 20 minutes per week. Is that person committing fraud or just inefficient? What if the person gives part of their salary to their boss to look the other way? What if the person is a company, their boss is a politician, and the money is given to campaign organisation?
The problem with nuclear is that every dollar spent on nuclear could have displaced more fossil energy if invested in renewables. Any investment in nuclear prolongs the climate crisis.

The next problem nuclear faces is that the CAPEX heavy economic model requires them to run at 100% all the time, they used to be able to do that but renewables undercut them wildly.

Now you start to lower the capacity factor of the nuclear plants, which has now gone from $0.15/kWh to ~$0.3/kWh when operating at 50% capacity factor.

Who even wants electricity for that price? It's beyond what we today call an "energy crisis". This is locked in until that nuclear plant has paid of its initial investment after 40 years.

I see significant different prices for Netflix in different countries, such as Denmark and Bulgaria.

My own reason not to subscribe is the language for subtitles etc. Netflix in Denmark often lacks English subtitles. This isn't very good, when 4% of EU citizens live in a country they weren't born in.

> Anyone concerned about the overall cost would never choose 72 months, but the majority of people only care about that the number for each month.

There's no golden rule about ideal finance term lengths. It could make a lot of sense for an individual to elect to maximize near term cash flow in exchange for a higher total cost.

After all, in car dependent societies the chief value of a car is to get you to your place for work so you can earn money to support yourself.

Car prices also don't scale down infinitely, so it's not like you can always find a practical car for yourself that you can pay off in 48 months.

Similarly, if overall costs were the only thing that mattered, I'd have no mortgage on my house, but then I just wouldn't have a house, so I instead have a 30 year mortgage.
It's premature to declare a victor, and typically in such cases, it's not a matter of winning or losing but rather of losing more or less.

Additionally, COVID and Ukraine have caused significant disruptions that put a stop to the entire process.

In my view, we'll need to wait until the end of the decade, at a minimum, to determine whether remaining in the EU or striking out on one's own was the correct decision.
There is for those who want to scare others from following. If the EU was fine without GB there wouldn't be so much gloating.
People are going to build new homes outside of dense urban cores and suburbs either way; may as well build them 'green'. We need to be more flexible and realistic with our environmentalism--people just aren't going to give up meat, cars, or houses overnight so we need to allow progress where we can actually get it.
The article title is a touch misleading. It's really talking about how Zig is safer and faster when you must use unsafe Rust.

"Unsafe Rust" is a world unto itself and even many of the Rust gods have pointed out that writing "unsafe Rust" correctly is very, very difficult.
And now we got to the source of the problem. Wasn't that easy?
Ah, ok, that’s how I ended up with the original mistaken belief. I remembered “Timewarp is necessary” and “Timewarp can happen on the headset” and conflated them into “Timewarp necessarily has to happen on the headset”.
I've found that the only safe-ish advice for my parents when they're downloading software is to click the link through Wikipedia. Obviously a bad actor could go edit the site to something malicious, but generally the site has accurate links.

I have told them for multiple years to not simply google "open office" and expect to get the result you want.
I don't believe that's true; unused gold coins expire at the end of the same month during which you acquired them, one year later. (I believe silver/platinum coins are similar, but only last six months)

So for example if you acquired 10 gold coins during July 2020 (it doesn't matter when or how many purchases or how spread they are through the month), all ten of those coins would expire simultaneously at the end of July 2021, while any coins you acquired later would remain. It's not a radioactive decay at all; it's a simple expiration date on each individual coin, like you get on coupons or other incentive programs.

The coins expire for the same reason that coupons expire, airline loyalty program miles expire, etc -- they're a liability on the company's balance sheet which potentially could build up infinitely if there wasn't some limit to how long they needed to be tracked and redeemable.
Democracy is a bad form of government, especially for more complex questions as you presented. Unfortunately, that's still the best form of government we've discovered that far (besides theoretical naive ones like communism or libertarianism).
They could make a bot that trawls the add URLs every so often and if it detects malware activity it could put a strike on the account associated with that ad. A few strikes, and they are banned and their ad account closed. It wouldn't be perfect, but it would help take out the worst offenders.

this is a terrific turn of phrase. thanks.
Imagine mentioning climate change and then discussing building massive infrastructure that only ADDS to climate change. How in the world do you think that stuff gets built? (hint: massive amounts of fossil fuels)

Anyone "serious" about climate change realizes that it's a very slow moving thing that's not going to result in some sort of Hollywood Dante's Peak type scenario. Anyone "serious" about climate change also realizes it's neither fair nor realistic to expect up and coming continents like Africa to continue burning dung for heat while western nations get to reap the benefits of a century plus of fossil fuels turning them into superpowers.

Right now fossil fuels are still the best energy source you're going to get and still the best way of bringing nations to an industrialized point where they can actually consider "green energy".

Additionally, you seem to not understand that America has vast areas of emptiness and any federal plan for mass infra (especially transportation) is a massive waste of materials, taxes, and possibly incredibly destructive to certain eco-systems. Even my Dutch friends think it would be stupid to build mass transit on a European scale here. Our population is too spread out.

Lastly, stop thinking everything is a political issue. If you haven't figured it out by now... big government moves like a snail and will NEVER be the quickest or most efficient way to get anything done. If all this stuff is as good as you think it is, people will embrace it on their own without the need of any political battle.

I think a strong case can be made that if a business cannot operate without causing harm to unconsenting others, it should not be operating.

> because of a (statistically) few bad actors?

It doesn't actually matter how many or few bad actors there are. What matters is how much harm is being done.

I'm not sure what your point is about Firefox, but in general, it doesn't matter if mitigating the harm Google's ad system does adversely affects Firefox or any other advertiser.
Yes. But basic income means different things for different people.

I wanted to emphasize the level of sufficiency it should provide.
>If you can come up with a good sounding idea that is devoid of facts, dumb citizens will gleefully support it.

You can also apply the same thinking to "rational", fact-based ideas held by intellectuals.

Sometimes they backfire in horrific ways and you need the truck drivers of the world to keep you in line.
Intuition from category theory has certainly been useful for some programming language features (eg. algebraic effects, modal types or lenses), but I don't think it has helped with the things you cite. Rusts ownership model was created with little formal, academic understanding - or do you mean more foundational stuff like linear logic? And I don't think that Haskell does supercompilation today? It does optimize a whole lot but that is more due to laziness and other optimizations. But neither these optimizations nor supercompilation have much to do with category theory as far as I am aware.

That’s a pretty crazy position. In the US, there’s lots of material out there on the conditions that led to the creation of Social Security and subsequent legislation like Medicare and Medicaid. Hopefully you are simply ignorant of that history and not demonstrating a blase tolerance of human suffering.

These systems are very sustainable, and the solution to the funding issues would be best served by indexing the cutoff for contributions to inflation.

As to birth rates, how do you expect people earning less than their parents to absorb the exponentially higher costs? My son was born over a decade ago. Thanks to a moderate, common complication, his birth cost $85k. His childcare at age 3 cost as much as our mortgage.
