> Can you solve arbitrary traveling salesman problem with that?

Yes, you can solve TSP in linear time using electricity.

First step is to construct a circuit with a single source, and multiple independent paths -- one for each possible TSP graph traversal. Constructing this circuit can take a bit of time, but after that, finding the shortest path will be extremely fast.

I lived with the same three guys from the time I was 18 to about 31. It was pretty great, our gfs hated it and I eventually got married and started a family but it was fun while it lasted.

Well that's dumb.
Single family homes aren’t the problem, it’s lack of density and mixed-use. Ideally you have single family homes mixed in with condos and apartments, coffee shops, grocery stores, etc. and then you mix in various sizes and configurations so the wealthy CEO is walking their dog at the park and saying hello to the student living in a studio apartment, and they all say hi to the elderly couple sitting on the porch when they bring their kids to school to their neighbor, the teacher.

Taking each of these and creating a “suburban neighborhood” area, a retirement home, a shopping complex, and a school complex and making each of them require a personal vehicle to get to is solely responsible for fucking up America and other Anglosphere countries to a degree.
Conflict with neighbors is a common theme. But also friendship with neighbors. Wilson Wilson Jr in Home Improvement. Lawrence in Office Space. All the guys in King of the Hill. Even in some which start off with frustrations about neighbors sometimes shows strong bonds between them later like Grand Torino or Family Matters or even The Simpsons.

I think a lot of TV shows and movies show a lot of different perspectives of neighbors, and I'm not convinced it's mostly negative. Lots show some amount of strife with neighbors, but even a romance movie will often show some amount of conflict between the protagonists.
So the author points out that some reasons constraining mobility are outside of a person's control:

> When we talk about limited mobility, we have to talk about states that are actively and legislatively hostile to marginalized people.

And then proceeds to frame the choice of "where to live?" as solely within a person's control, "What’s holding you back, and what conversations do you have with yourself about when and whether that will change?"

> And so, a prompt for discussion: What would have to change, for you to move closer to the people who nourish you, who support you, who make your life better and easier in so many ways?

I'm getting fatigued with seeing/hearing this meaningless virtue signaling. It usually takes the form of, "We see you," "We acknowledge particular challenges for certain people," and then proceeding to make a point that either completely disregards or directly contradicts (in this case) the speaker's/writer's acknowledgement of racism/hostility/lack of safety/etc.

This article is some privileged person nonsense.
It's really hard to take that site seriously when it considers the impact of "a small number of people dying in accidents in supply chains – ranging from helicopter collisions with turbines; fires during the installation of turbines or panels; and drownings on offshore wind sites"

...but thinks that Chernobyl was only responsible for 433 deaths, and they fell asleep at their computers before considering the carbon footprint of uranium mining and enrichment (and unlike materials used in permanent magnets and batteries, which everyone loves to get excited about - uranium is not recycled, nor can it be at least in the US without enormous infrastructure and policy changes.)

That's how hard they had to reach for "deaths caused by wind and solar" - helicopters crashing into wind turbines.

You can point to "research" like this all you like. Power companies in the US are shutting down nuclear power plants because they're not economical and installed wind/solar capacity is outpacing the shutdowns capacity-wise 6:1, and growing.

Why? Because solar and wind cost a fraction of what nuclear does, and are getting cheaper every year. Meanwhile, nuclear is getting more expensive, and that's with the enormous subsidization of the entire nuclear energy program because of its importance to "defense" for weapons and propulsion.

> There's far worse than slighly warm clean water going into Lake Michigan.

And if a "once in a thousand years" storm (which is happening every few years) happens, and the plant does a Fukashima, and pollutes the largest fresh-water lake with radioactive waste, rendering a water supply for tens of millions of people undrinkable, then what?

> For example, what young married couple would want to live in their parents house if they can afford their own?

How much of that is just unconsciously going along with American culture? America is structurally set up to fragment your social relationships, especially among higher achieving, professional people. You go to school and seek jobs across the country, etc.

I’m also an immigrant and I followed the same trajectory. Came to America, was already disconnected from family. Went to school hundreds of miles away, etc. Kind of by accident, I ended up living 10 minutes from my parents, in a neighborhood where most people don’t have a college degree. We’re over at my parents several times a week. And multiple families in my neighborhood have parents in the neighborhood or rent a house from their parents who live nearby.
in fact - that's the reason advice can backfire. modern day online friends can end up being somewhat incompatible when moved closer together

I stopped being friends with my neighbours when I moved into an apartment.

When I was a kid I was friends with my neighbours because we’d be out doing things and you had to run into them.

Now I can literally see movers move people into the apartment next to me. And a couple years later see them move them out and I’ll never have bumped into them.

> hierarchies of competence (not privilege)[1].

Oh dear. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but you've been sold a bill of goods.

On the social mobility index, United States ranks 27 of the 80 some odd countries index. Poor kids in Estonia are more likely to turn out better than poor kids in the US.

And intergenerational wealth transfer is only one way that privilege transfers. Opportunity and connections are the much larger effects. Seriously, do the research on how many poor people move up a social ladder over their lifetime versus how many wealthy people stay in their ladder. You will be disappointed in the story in America.

And there's a reason the reservations are in remote places. And if you don't find the idea "all they have to do to move up in society is leave the reservation" to be viscerally revolting, you don't understand how a nation slaughters another bation and I think your comprehension of these problems may be too far away from me to reach.

Again, I am sorry to be the bearer of bad news. I believed in the dream too when I was younger.

Yes until it doesn't or vulkan implementation is considered as second class citizen. Been there seen that. The other thing is that webgpu is slightly higher-level so you do not have to go into extremes with memory handling and synchronization as in vulkan. So unless you absolutely need to squeeze everything out, webgpu gives nice balance.
If your neighbors will allow you to be friends. Our next door neighbor moved in 2 years ago. We happened to be outside when they first arrived. A man for out of the car to open the garage door while a woman stayed in the car staring straight ahead. We tried to engage, but he ignored us, drove into the garage, and shut the door. Since then we have never spoken to them since. Sometimes we will see the man in the middle of the night walk to his mailbox. Occasionally we see the man coming and going in the car. But they (we are assuming there is a they, we’ve never seen the woman since that first day) never come outside during the day or evening hours. They never have any lights on inside the home (and we can see all of their windows from our house), ever. One time a tree on their property blew over into the street. We knocked and knocked on their door and waited a few days. Eventually we and another neighbor cut up the tree and left all the branches and logs on the side of the road. Little by little they’ve been disappearing in their yard debris bins (they do put out and take back in their garbage, recycling, and yard debris bins - though nobody has ever seen them do so). The main way we know they live there is seeing white vapor rising from their utility vents in the winter. Our current guesses are traffickers or witness protection program.
They gave many reasons but I have a different one. I don't have any friends.
The Windows OOBE experience is trash now. Thanks to their “on by default” widgets, it’s like getting a subscription to the National Enquirer along with an OS.

I design sensors, currently for medical applications where I use varying signal to measure properties of a medium. Tiny electrodes in an array that are excited with AC, through different effects (capacitive...), things like density, conductivity... can be deduced from the measure.
The initial founding of the US created an extremely weak federal government. The states were supposed to be independent nations with sovereignty within their own borders and an agreement to cooperate in raising an army collectively for purposes of defense.

The exact form of organization initially chosen had a history of failing and it gave the federal government no means to fund an army, therefore no meaningful means to raise an army. So that was soon abandoned and the agreement was updated.

No, it's not crazy talk for the Southern states to believe they had self determination that the Northern states had no right to interfere with. That was the original arrangement agreed upon by the various states -- state typically meaning independent nation and not "some layer of organization above municipal and county but below nation."

Over time, our conceptualization of the organization of the US has changed. Originally, the states were conceived of as separate nations allied for one purpose: The ability to adequately defend themselves to preserve their independence.
I'm glad that worked for you. My experience has become that as my friends groups have gotten older, getting larger groups together has become very difficult. You have to plan it far enough in advance that everyone has sufficient notice, you need a venue large enough to host everyone, people have kids that need to be accommodated somehow, and everyone also lives further apart. All of these mean that we've gone from getting together once or twice a month to maybe once every 3 months or so. So while everyone still keeps in touch online, in-person meetups have reduced a lot in frequency.

Totally true.
The issue in this thread is confusion between two separate ideas: "English is a phonetic langauge" and "English uses a phonetic script".

The former point can be debated. The latter, not. The English script is phonetic. Graphemes represent phonemes.

The English script (its writing system), which is based on the Latin alphabet (the graphic symbols) is phonetic because the symbols represent sounds and have no intrinsic semantic meaning. I think that's fairly un-debatable unless you want to make the case that emoji are part of the English script.

"t" represents a sound in the English script, a phoneme. It does not represent a thing, an idea, or anything more than an aspirated consonant sound.
Agreed.

That’s definitely true if you have a family which your parents and grandparents did by definition. My wife and I have just a few friends we see irl regularly (couple times
a month) but that’s about it. I still keep up with my college friends but it’s over iMessage as we’ve kinda scattered geographically over the years. Between my wife and kids I feel pretty socialized and don’t feel the need to seek out anyone else.

The article briefly speaks on why people might not have control over where they live - and then the author then continues to discuss the matter as if an individual does have control, as you said. However, this is far from meaningless, because many do have a say in where they live, and still neglect to factor in living near to close friends. I agree that it doesn't apply to everyone, but this doesn't make it nonsense in my opinion.
That’s a great idea! Thank you :)
Here’s another thing no one talks about because it’s taboo: drink driving. Right up until the mid 70s, it was completely socially acceptable to drink and drive. Now I agree that it was probably a good thing that’s it’s been banned, but having to pay for and organise transportation to go to whatever event it is you want to go to adds another substantial layer of friction to socialising. Not to mention the fact that the alcohol itself meant people were probably more sociable. It seems that due to all our technological and cultural change since the 70s we’re living physically healthier and safer lives but at the cost of poorer social and mental health.

Mankind does not seem to be at risk from falling birth rates. If you can think of a plausible such scenario I'd like to hear it. Sure, certain cultures are at risk. But anti-natalists tend to edit themselves out of cultures, leaving the more fecund natalists to spawn the future. Raising families, breeders are disproportionate sources of both future memes and genes relative to non-breeders. The more effective anti-natalists are, the greater the rebound from their resulting self-elimination.
Parking is never a problem in rural or less dense areas. Downtown and trendy areas tend to be a parking nightmare but you can solve this with money.

So, basically it's an in-process, single-threaded KV store, made out of a standard JS Object with a bunch of operations over keys or values, vaguely along the lines of Redis.

These operations make it stand out a bit from just typing `const kV = {}`, especially set operations, and the presence of TTL for keys.

Could be useful. For me though the usefulness of Redis comes mostly from its being a common store across many processes / nodes, so it can serve ads a cache, a queue, etc. Maybe it's also useful for a single JS process in a similar capacity.
These are fine ads to put in airport terminals near gates that business travelers use. The target market is the business executive that can make spending decisions, and he definitely wants to hear that his employees want to get more work done.

Introducing Selefra’s GPT Feature: Insight Multi-Cloud and SaaS by GPT
https://selefra.io/blog/introducing-selefras-gpt-feature-ins...
Radiation will send high energy particles that may displace metal atoms from their lattices. This may cause weakening, embitterment etc. Also shooting high energy particles at atoms will cause atoms to get into chemical reactions that they would have never gotten into before. This may cause new and unusual forms of rustlike behavior.

It is not predictable because with radiation you are deep in quantum physics territory, and a lot of things depend on chance. Things may be perfectly fine if only isolated atoms are kicked out of their lattices, but if you are unlucky some atoms along a line get kicked out and you get a crack.

Similarly you are not sure exactly what atom will get energized by some high energy electron and what other atom it will react with. Once you get into high energies, you can get a lot of chemical reactions that seemed impossible otherwise, or that nobody has ever thought of. There again usually you get some isolated strange compound. But if you are unlucky you get something that can act as a catalyst for further reactions and spread around like rust.
Sure. It is possible there is evidence that is not shared. It’s dumb to assume this is the case though.

That's not the same thing as sounding out words. It's just the internal monologue.

It is distressing that most every ethnic group in the US has great reasons for distrusting the medical establishment.

Campaigns needed to be concerted to ensure vaccines made it to the black and brown communities of the US because:

- we tend to be overrepresented in jobs that required interaction such as nursing, hospitality/service, etc.

- we tend to live in smaller, denser situations

- neighborhoods where we are the majority are underserved by public services

- and we have historical reasons for not trusting the government
