Over longer distances the transmissions losses makes cables more inefficient (otherwise all of Europe could easily be powered by Saharan solar-power). The flooding mentioned in the article is about 1000km away from the major population centers in Finland and Sweden.

Transforming to burnable fuels via electricity is actually useful for some applications and actually in the planning stage with some steelmakers (as a replacement for coal!) like h2 green steel in the same region of Sweden as the floodings. They claim that steelmaking is up to 7% of global co2 emissions and being able to move to gas produced with cheap electricity might be only marginally more costly than coal.

One of the main points of the article that I totally agree with is that recipe authors fudge times by massive amounts to make the total time for a recipe "acceptable". A favorite recipe from years ago in Cuisine magazine for a way-better-than-ordinary Spankopita called for washing and chopping the spinach. In 1982, fresh spinach was almost always very sandy, and needed multiple washings. The recipe allocated less than 5 minutes for the task that probably took me 20 minutes the first time. (Yay for the advent of pre-washed spinach!). Similarly for doing phyllo (aka filo) dough the first time. Very fussy, very time-consuming. A more truthful phraseology might be "after you get good at this, it can be done in as little as x minutes". We do get faster at repeated tasks ... The cynic in me sees at as part of a pattern where we're constantly lied to in advertising blurbs, headlines and summaries, but that's another rant ... :-)
> No private right of action in any of those, which means it’s up to the states to enforce the laws.

These laws are nearly worthless when they cannot be enforced by regular people. Laws such as these will be used as weapons by partisan attorneys general who will wield them to settle scores with companies that they don't like. When an organization that they do like violates a state privacy law, no action will be taken against them.

If they actually cared about data privacy, they would have written the law to be more like the TCPA, which can be enforced by anyone.
Yes, but the existence of a fallacy doesn't mean it applies here. If people can be convinced to go back to the office the company won't lose millions of dollars. Is that a sunk cost then?
> By that logic, all regulation and legislation restricting the behavior of companies and their interactions with employees on their own property is unjustifiable

Why is that an implication? You haven’t provided a logical justification although taking someone else’s argument and taking it to absurd extremes is a common rhetorical technique. No, to genuinely protect life and limb a reasonable argument can be made to have regulations but we are far from that in this Amazon scenario. These are legally created rights arbitrarily created by the government and they have no guarantee to be justified and in this case do violate the property rights of the company. The workers can organize with widely available communication technology that they own.
First of all: Those "frontiersmen" suffering "Indian raids" looked, from a very slightly different perspective, an awful lot like "foreign invaders who murdered millions and took their homes being attacked by some of the few that remained trying desperately to avoid also being murdered and having their homes stolen." Parroting Manifest Destiny narratives isn't a good look in 2023.

Also those "dust bowls" were largely caused by their own incompetence at land management, expecting to import a specific brand of European farming practices to a completely different continent with many different biomes and have everything Just Work, because, of course, God Wanted Them To Take It.

I'm also not trying to claim that there's no value in having the knowledge and tools to defend yourself. But when you've got a bunker full of thousands and thousands of rounds of ammo, enough canned food to survive unpleasantly for about 6 months, and no understanding of how to grow more or interest in learning, that speaks of someone who expects to be murdering other people and taking their food to survive for the rest of his life.

If you want to farm enough to feed your family, you don't need 2,000 acres of farmland. That kind of acreage is mostly needed for specialist farmers and for grain. Furthermore, what's actually effective at making you ready to survive in a situation like what's being posited isn't total self-sufficiency: it's community. The people in the area get together and work out what land should be used for the village's potatoes, peppers, onions, etc, what should be used for pasturage for the animals, and what should be left fallow this year. (Hopefully in collaboration with some of the indigenous people who we haven't totally managed to wipe out, and some of whom still retain their historical land management practices, which were effective at making this land a flourishing place providing plenty of food for millennia before my ancestors came and tried to exterminate them in the name of gold, God, and glory.)
>they still believe the media are an essential part of democracy.

It is, but maybe not in its traditional forms. Further, social media was supposed to be part of the solution but apart from a few shining examples has instead become about selling us crap, spying on us, and holding our attention away from the problems of the world. This all isn't to say that media in some other form or rebirth of these old forms isn't still the answer to information sharing and reengaging civic dialog.
Something to go into the cluster, find things that are bad/broken/wrong, give me a button that says "click here to fix this", allows rolling back the change. Something to put in policies, roles, etc for guardrails for common problems, like don't allow a user to create an external load-balancer. Easier RBAC. Easier network policies. I would have said an operator for external secrets, but it exists now (https://external-secrets.io/v0.8.2/introduction/overview/).

Most of what people need in k8s-land is not one small tool, but a complex intelligent solution that (today) requires a well-trained human to do analysis and then figure out some action to take. The automation that should be there by default but isn't. So you could start by asking people about problematic or time-consuming situations they face in k8s, and automate that.
Hey, thanks for bringing up storage efficiency. This is an often cited objection and a big motivation of the Zed project actually. In Zed, data is organized around a self-describing type system rather than schemas, and unlike the relation model, heterogeneous data can land side-by-side at the storage layer. And unlike NoSQL JSON-based systems, Zed is comprehensively typed, which allows us to form vectors for heterogeneous data and get OLAP-style analytics performance even with heterogenous data. We're working on the vector analytics layer as we speak and hope to have an "MVP" of the Zed lake with vector support in the coming months.

TL;DR Zed stores data efficiently based on types not schemas so first-class error values of type "error" fit in anywhere with ease.
Have you demonstrated SSRF on a server that is not running insecure or untrusted code (i.e. is not already compromised)?

We have yet to see this, but if we do see a practical demonstration, we're happy to reconsider.
> But telcos are competitors, and getting them together to agree on how to handle this kind of thing is hard. No one can agree on who should pay for it, and no one wants to go first. Every telco basically passes the buck. So if you are on Verizon and you get a fake caller ID spam call, Verizon will say "we're just forwarding the call from X, go complain to X".

This is why making telcos explicitly, legally, financially responsible for the forwarding garbage calls would fix this really, really fast. The telcos would figure it out, no need to dictate a system.
BTW, data tables exceeding 12 million rows can be handled by a companion database program GS-Base ( https://citadel5.com/gs-base.htm ). It's a database with spreadsheet functions. Uses up to 256 million records/rows including data types same as in GS-Calc and binary fields: Long Text, Images/Files, Code (for code snippets with syntax highlighting for 16 languages). It uses the same type of calculations within one and more tables but in this case, they record/row based.

I took a summer job as a painter and did some other contracting stuff in my 30s after being in tech my whole life. I went from setting my hours to getting up at 5 am to be picked up to go to a job site, working hard all day, coming home, and going to yoga for body repair.

By the end of the summer, I was ripped. Best shape of my life, and I got paid to do it. I was very tempted to keep doing that for a living and probably would have had a more consistent income.
It's definitely ambiguous, but the fold is the first page division. Once the viewer is on another page they can't be paying attention to a page that they are no longer on.

Later on I thought that the conflict between these statistics might be from different page sets shown to research subjects. Which would highlight the importance of page design (and content) in maintaining user attention (regardless of scrolling). If so, this point could have been clearer in the article.

Unfortunately on this topic, institutions that could typically have been trusted regarding the details, have largely been captured by ideologists and by the medical industry, the latter of whom are eagerly seeking to create new revenue streams - manufacturing a lifelong patient from childhood onwards does this rather effectively, especially when the 'illness' is iatrogenic and malleable via cultural norms.

Virgin Orbit: Branson’s rocket dream ends after mission failure
Some of my machines are references to LoadingReadyRun's Installation Anxiety[0][1] sketch. When I was in college ~15 years ago, I built a file server, so I named it toilet. I eventually put a web server on it too, and when I replaced the hardware, I named it gram, but my blog code still retains the old name[2]. And yes, I named my router dishwasher.

I'm dead set against IoT, so naming my computers after fixtures or appliances hasn't caused conflicts.

Doesn't look much like anything one of us could recognize though. We are not experts.

More importantly, even if it is a downed Khinzal, it doesn't matter for the article, which is about hypersonic maneuverable weapons, which the Khinzal is not. So the initial post in this thread is wrong.
Most of the APM programs require a quantitative if not technical background but that isn't the real selection criteria. The selection criteria are "go getters".

Depending on my use-case I strongly prefer a modal. A new tab would be highly disruptive, if I just wanted a glimpse over the content.

This is yet another instance of optimizing for something that can not be made perfect.
Let me decide what I want. Give me the option to do both without much of a hassle. If a decision needs to be made regarding what should happen on a mouse-click, one may choose a sensible default (i.e. what is the most typical use-case), while leaving the option to configure the other choice.

You can always argue that many options are a non-goal, but any sufficiently sophisticated software needs training anyway. Configuration can be a part of that.
Nothing is worse than a program in which the designer chose to make your use-case to be painful to be met.

Furthermore, a uri does not need to be bound to a view. In fact, one might prefer different ways to look at the same data.

Or it could mean the lesson from these papers has been assimilated and spread wide and far, thus they are no longer "news". The pre-layernorm is one.
That is what the comment says, but, it doesn't seem to match reality. "To verify comments I saw on Raymond Chen's blog" isn't enough justification for me to pay ISO's fees for the actual ISO C++ 20 standard document, but the draft the committee members work from still says of Consume:

> Implementations have found it infeasible to provide performance better than that of memory_order :: acquire.

I suspect that the comment is well-meant but is referring to some proposal that may have been made at some point in the last say five years, and which isn't in the ISO standard. Plenty of people have proposed that Consume could be fixed, but there are big gaps between proposing a fix, agreeing it among all interested parties and writing that fix into the standard, and actually shipping compilers with working Consume memory order.
But that's not what was being discussed. Someone suggested that if one were to use a website that generates passwords, they should use one that generates multiple passwords to pick from to mitigate the risk of the site being malicious and knowing your password. And I'm saying that that is not useful for any practical length of password candidate list.
I tried this and it didn't work.

> Consume exists[1] precisely so that you can write code using the C++ memory model that works correctly on a superscalar Alpha chip (not the 21064/21164, those are in-order).

No, you have it wrong. Consume exists so that you can write code that works correctly on all chips other than Alpha, x86, and SPARC.

> If alpha didn't exist then consume wouldn't exist and people would be writing these as unconstrained/normal loads because that works everywhere else.

That's patently false. For the semantics to work correctly, you still need to identify the memory operations that generate synchronization edges. Unannotated loads, by definition, can't generate those edges. Relaxed atomics are sufficient from a hardware perspective, but it ignores the effect of the compiler. The problem with consume--why it's never worked--is that it relies on the compiler preserving data dependencies expressed in the source language, which runs into the issue of a) defining what exactly constitutes a data dependence (hardware implementations don't exactly agree!) and b) this turns out to be a lot more difficult to do than originally anticipated.

To even have a hope of being able to correctly reason about the need to not have a load barrier in these places, you need a big, flashing neon sign to the compiler saying "this is special with special semantics, please pay attention." That sign is memory_order_consume.
Ukraine is also arresting people who film AA incidents, so who cares.

That the CIA was not created till 1947, as already pointed out by serallak, will, not stop me from adding the novel to my reading list.

What saddens is the willingness of the community to defend inaccuracy when they agree with the underlying point the inaccuracy is supporting. The author of the article could have said US Intelligence Assets, and forgone the clickbait of CIA. Putting SEO requirements ahead of factual accuracy, particularly when the fact is so easily fact checked, is not how the world gets changed for the better.

I agree. I used to name my machines using metadata, but that became problematic after a while. When machines move or are repurposed, then you either have a misleading name or you have to rename the machine. I prefer to avoid both of those situations.

Experts on every side say all kinds of things. At times of war, one should be very skeptical.

It pays for Ukraine to claim they are easily downing Khinzals and minimizing their own casualties/hits. I don't blame them for this, misinformation and demoralizing the enemy is key. The Russians are doing the same on their side. Both apply military secrecy and censorship on their own camps.

"Expert" opinion shouldn't be taken as non-biased here, either.
One is tempted to contrast this with a similar move made by Nintendo some years ago:

The conversion ratio is quite bad, however if you MUST burn something (like in Steelmaking mentioned in the sibling comment) then it starts to make more sense but iirc it's still calculated to be slightly more expensive steel compared to coal currently (but if we continue building out variably producing power like wind, solar while augumenting the regular production the general idea is that the intermittent spikes could be used for affordable production).
So, something can intrinsically work by default, or it can possibly work only when and if you go out of your way to make it work. Two totally equal choices!
