I think it's more rational to ship the hydrogen as methane, rather than ammonia. The energetics are comparable IIRC (Sabatier for methane, Haber-Bosch for ammonia, but it's more or less the same kind of high-pressure moderate-temp chemistry pipeline). Methane from CO2 + H2 vs. ammonia from N2 + H2, it's just that the latter technology has seen more research and investment.

I live in the Basque Country, where there is considerable effort put by the government to preserve Basque language and culture.

It has always seemed like a losing battle to me. Basque people might speak more Basque, but they still see Netflix, listen to international bands via Spotify and immerse themselves in international trends via Instagram and Tiktok.

My conclusion is that the government does this because language is the one part of culture the government can legislate around.

I think you're way out of your league here if you're saying that there is nothing illegal under contract law to sign a contract to rob a bank. Not to mention that you've now gone from trying to be pedantic about the fact that there's no such thing as a legal contract, to now saying that it's actually just a synonym for binding contract. If all you cared about was the overall intention and meaning instead of trying to get into the nitty gritty, there'd have never been a point in you posting to begin with.

With that said, if you're under that impression then I'm afraid there's likely not much of a point in discussing this further with you and you're welcome to continue believing what you like.
My father lost $300 to those assholes. And I'm glad that was all it was.

What I determined was that he was getting frustrated by the browser popups, and would click on anything that looked like it would make them go away so he could get back to what he was doing. That led to his machine being constantly reinfected after I would clean it.

Watching the "scam the scammer" education videos on Youtube would be of limited use because he would get in trouble "in the moment" and wouldn't think about his actions until much later (if at all).

If he were still around I'd install an adblocker as well as removing his admin rights.

Just installed and am playing with this. Actually there are very few compilers of this ilk, particularly for my preferred platform on the CoCo.

In fact, I know of no BASIC compiler with a modern IDE that outputs 6809 assembly to a disk file for running on that machine. I can use old compilers that aren't supported anymore, but this is the only modern BASIC for the CoCo. I bet that's also true for many of the other platforms ugbasic support.

And considering once I'm done with my CoCo project it's very likely to work with other platforms with little to no changes, and the whole thing is open source, this is an amazing project!!
Indeed. Every good European should speak two languages - the language of their European country, and English.

Review of AI for March 2023
Everything important that you need to know!
I feel like everyone acts so surprised at this like it’s some contradiction when it’s exactly purposefully right.

At the end of the day delivering results isn’t the end all be all. It’s delivering the right results on a known and predictable time scale without any surprises. Above a baseline of speed it doesn’t really matter because you’re only as fast as the slowest business unit involved in your release and it’s not usually engineering.

Realistically my team could push out features that could fill a newsletter every single week but the parts of the business that figure out what features customers actually want, how we can market and sell them, how we tell users about them, getting them through qa, gathering incremental user feedback for the next iterations all work on human time and so we directly (or indirectly through management) get pulled into those concerns.

I think lots of devs feel weird about coding for 20 or less hours a week because it’s the part we associate with work when in reality we’re delivering real business value in those stupid meetings, it just manifests outside our view.

Dumb Hack: Treat meetings even ad hoc ones like card work, groom them, assign them point values, define ACs and retro them. You’ll discover really quickly the meetings that aren’t serving you and the value you’re providing to the rest of the business.

The initial Covid breakout was a wake up call to me even though it didn’t fatally affect anyone I knew personally. It did change my perspective and wanted me to have a life without regrets. I am 49 and my wife is 47. My youngest (step)son graduated in 2020.

I also got a permanently remote job the same month at BigTech (I am assigned to a “virtual office”)

Last year, my wife and I sold both of our cars (we just bought hers the prior year), rented our house out (that we had built in 2016) to our son and two of his friends we have known for years, got rid of all of our belongings that wouldn’t fit in three suitcases and bought a fully furnished vacation home in a resort community in Florida that was a third the size of our house.

We only stay there five months out of the year from October-February. We city hop the rest of the year around the US staying in mid range hotels and take Uber everywhere.

I explicitly told my manager and skip manager I have no desire for a promotion and I at 49 years old am perfectly content at being an L5 (mid level) making a little less than a college grad Software Engineer three years out of school - I pivoted to (billable hands on keyboard) cloud consulting/app dev from enterprise dev. I make it a point to work exactly 40 hours a week.

OpenJDK's new GC doesn't require STW pauses, the JDK offers preemptive scheduling for millions of threads as well as supervision trees -- although, to be fair, these are recent changes that have, at least in part, been inspired by Erlang. All that is on top of one of the world's most capable compilers. I have long admired Erlang and its passionate community as well as how much they've been able to accomplish (and, as a VM engineer, studied its design), but between passion and being an actual top-tier competitor there's a certain reality gap.

Tokio is super popular but there are still better runtimes at the moment. The proper design you want is thread per core with some background pool of threads available for work stealing / batch jobs.

Interesting, how do you handle the costs?
excellent question, thanks! correct, at the moment only Orgs create & pay bounties

crowdfunding bounties amongst users of OSS for features they'd like to see is a very interesting concept indeed and could help. however, it may also be a double-edged sword for the maintainers (ex users might feel 'entitled' with their requests now that money is involved, and this might happen on issues that are not part of the maintainers' roadmap).

we've been asked about this before, we don't yet understand all the dynamics here fully and refrained from developing, but it's a feature we can ship easily. we're holding back until a project explicitly agrees to have crowdfunded bounties in their repo and users who are ready to crowdfund it. happy to hear more feedback on this and continue the conversation!

Not forgotten, intentionally excluded. Aborts/scrubs are almost certainly going to happen and, in the vast majority of cases, the ability to correctly identify abort/scrub a launch attempt is part of success criteria: not a failure. Failing to abort when it should have aborted ends up in one of my other categories related to failure modes.

All rockets, including those well out of their testing programs, will abort/scrub at some point. Just this past week a Falcon 9 mission out of Vandenberg AFB was automatically aborted at 3 seconds and then rescheduled a couple of times before successfully delivering its payload to orbit. I would count that a success: they didn't destroy the rocket, they didn't destroy the payload, and they got the payload to where it was suppose to go. Successful despite the abort.

The only case I can think of where an abort would indicate a failure would be if they have to pull the rocket off the OLM and do extensive modifications or redesign on something. I don't anticipate that... that kind of problem almost certainly will end in some flight anomaly rather than an on-pad abort. We could say that the SLS rollback to the VAB was this kind of failure, but it was relatively minor... they fixed some stuff that they couldn't do so at the pad, but didn't really do any significant redesign or rebuild. I don't expect that sort of scenario for Starship. Starship isn't dealing with finicky liquid hydrogen and appears to be overall much more serviceable than SLS.
No one at SpaceX has projected $10 per ton. Cost of fuel is about $10,000 per ton to LEO, assuming Starship can lob 100 tons at a time.

In a speech to USAF in 2019, Musk said SpaceX's out of pocket cost per launch could be "maybe like $2 million," which would be about $20,000 per ton.

Adjust numbers for inflation accordingly.

The problem is, human intelligence is likely also based on a similar advanced chat bot setup.

While GPT-4 only performs as good as top-10th percentile of human students taking an exam (a professional in the field can do much more than this), it is notable that as a generalist GPT-4 would outperform such professionals. And GPT-4 is much faster than a human. And we have not yet evaluated GPT-4 working in its optimal setting (access to optimal external tools). And we have not yet seen GPT-5 or 6 or 8.

So, get ready for an interesting ride.

I disagree.

Our cells are spaghetti code, the worst technical debt created by the random chances of evolution. There are multiple competing systems (e.g. telomeres) at cross purposes. Think trying to patch up bad software: you can perhaps make some small improvements to reliability, but overall there are so many thousands of errors due to design flaws that you cannot fix the system overall.

To fix cancer would require some extreme design challenges. We can fix a few of the bugs e.g. we reduce mutations by using sunblock. Perhaps we could copy some systems from other animals - hard but perhaps not impossible.

After we fix cancer, we need to fix cell aging, which the most obvious effects start kicking in about 60ish. Oh, and we also need to fix brains: they fail in complex ways. Human lifetime problems are fractal trees, not linear steps.

I am resigned to the fact that there is no intellectual property protection for software, hardware, or trademarks these days. I usually put the Apache 2 license on my projects, but what I am really intending is the "I know you're going to steal this and I can't do anything about it, so have fun" license. (There are licenses like this, but they cause a lot of trouble for organizations that do respect intellectual property. Apache 2 is acceptable to them and basically has the same effect.)
Windows Containers are a Windows-native container solution. No Linux kernel need be involved. This lives alongside Linux VM-based containers in Docker Desktop.

It can definitely be motivating, though some features are more "one size fits all", like the intensity minute counter. I know a person who gets maybe one intensity minute per week when it should be 300+, simply because the heart rate is lower on average than the manufacturer expects. Meanwhile my count is usually doubled because it counts very intense minutes twice and 99% of the time I exceed the seemingly hardcoded threshold while doing sports.

We are at the point where Brent prices were at the levels of 2019. It's clear that this is not enough or acceptable. We have a market that is barely an oligopoly -- effectively functioning as a monopoly.

We (everyone outside of OPEC (and Russia) need to place more resources on alternatives.

The funny thing is the only country selling their oil at a steep discount is Russia (to China).

I am curious if this move is going to spawn again OPEC states leaving the monopolistic group so they can sell more -- eg Ecuador.
