I'm always excited to see psychology stuff discussed here, and I like Ousterhout a lot, but I don't think this analogy works very well.

Scar tissue really is permanent. Resentment in a relationship can be permanent, but doesn't have to be. The analogy that every unresolved grievance leads to a monotonically increasing amount of perpetual relationship weakness is, I think, wrong.

I think of resentment more like foreign bodies. When I was a kid, I got a chunk of pencil lead stuck in my hand without realizing it. The wound healed over it, but it was still in there. I could see it as a dark spot under my skin. Many years later, my body gradually migrated it to the surface and eventually it came out. (This was definitely a weird experience.)

When there's some sort of grievance or unresolved conflict in a relationship, I think of it as leaving a little chunk of foreign body or poison in the person's symptom. Some amount of this is natural, and you will just build up a little scar tissue and get by. But if you keep accumulating them, they'll make you less and less healthy.

Often, the best solution is to make sure the foreign body is removed before the wound heals over. When a hurt happens, take the time right then to work through it with the partner so that you aren't leaving anything in there and it can heal quickly and completely.

But, if that doesn't happen (and sometimes it won't), you can still dig it out later. It just requires re-opening the wound. The longer you wait, the more painful it is. When you re-open that wound, you will feel raw and vulnerable. It requires a lot of trust and care. Sometimes, this may happen years later, but it can be done.

If you find yourself doing this so frequently that you feel like you're never fully healed, that's a good sign that you aren't right for each other. Likewise, if you never feel that you're in an emotionally safe enough space to re-open those wounds and clean out the festering gunk in them, that's also a warning sign.
If Bruegel painted it today it would just show an iPad.
You're looking at it from the wrong end. Nuclear war seems unlikely now, but it might become reasonable once half of the world's population is banging on the borders of the other half.

Do you think if e.g. India or Pakistan start experiencing lethal wet-bulb temperatures and people there decide to mass-migrate to survivable lands, only to be stopped at the border and denied entry, will those people and these countries just throw their hands up in the air, seeing there's nothing they could do, and accept imminent death? Or maybe they'll try to threaten or force to be let in, using any means available, up to and including nuclear weapons?

(This applies to all nuclear-armed countries - I mentioned these two, because AFAIK they'll be the first nuclear powers likely to experience lethal wet-bulb temperatures - but that's not the only way climate change could make a country mass-evacuate, and such other factors could hit other nuclear powers first.)
So, ypu know who blew up NS2, owned by Gazprom? Care to tell me who it was?
Nuclear is very cheap when you have an available power plant like Germany has... but instead decides to shut it down because that's not politically acceptable to use them
Yes, you get more heat out of a CCGT->Heat pump, than directly with a gas boiler

This has been known for decades, see Without Hot Air: http://www.withouthotair.com/c21/page_150.shtml
There are a lot of client implementations that don't support this. You already can add a body to GETs but you'll likely run into issues somewhere due to this. I believe that JavaScript's fetch doesn't allow for this as one example. That's a big one that is probably important to have but there are many others.
Glacier Deep Archive is exactly what you want for this, that would be something like $11/month ongoing, then about $90/TB in the event of retrieval download. Works well except for tiny (<150KB) files.

Note that there is Glacier and Glacier Deep Archive. The latter is cheaper but longer minimum storage periods. You can use it as a life cycle rule.
It's a paper we wrote for a CS workshop -- that means it's necessarily a short paper, one that pulls together various threads to make a new argument.
>NS2 was not quite German infrastructure, it's really Russian infrastructure

What are you talking about? Western companies literally own half of NS2.

>no gas ever has flown through it and none would have almost certainly even if it were still fully intact (one strand is undamaged)

I wonder if intentionally delayed certification of the pipeline by Germany has anything to do with "no gas ever has flown". The point is: NS1 + NS2 was a constant temptation for Germany and blowing it has removed the "wrong" incentive.

I would be nice if the actually published the evidence.

This story already fits my preexisting view of Tesla so I'm inclined to believe it but at the same time I've learned to be weary of sensationalization by "news" organizations.

If anyone has a copy of the actual employee policy they're talking about it would be good to see, especially if there's additional context around it.
Lol hilarious how you had to use a throwaway account to say what you said. Shows somewhere in that skull of yours theres a part of you that knows what you said was not right.
Depends; a lot more expensive typically. But the real challenge is the process of getting any nuclear built in a hurry. This seems to be a process that is measured in decades; not months or years.

And given the cost, is not something that seems to be very popular in any case right now. Wind and solar are much more popular. The cost is much lower, plans are easy to get approved because there is very little controversy (other than some level of NIMBYism) and you can be up and running pretty soon after.

And a useful side-effect of investing in renewable technology is that it can be exported. German companies like Siemens and others are making quite a bit of money with this. That's a good thing in times of recessions. Germany's heavy industry will end up going cold turkey on fossil fuels because of cost and climate. This is short term very disruptive of course but that also means a lot of money is being invested in alternatives. Which of course is something Germany can export as well. Germany might come out fine.
I’m not, you’re suffering from the inability to logically reason about what I’m saying because of your “us vs them” mentality.

Managerial issues are “explicitly” holding someone back. I didn’t say the issues were with the employee.

> Not surprising, lying is one way people get promoted

Don’t be an asshole. That’s another “explicit” issue that will make it difficult for you to get promoted.

To be clear, my point is that being a clock puncher is an extremely effective way to limit your own career. Giving a shit is not a guarantee to get promotions, but it is requisite baring other very unlikely circumstances.
Couldn't read the article.

Did the author not recognize that the BRICS and associated countries are getting very tired of this arrangement, especially because the US uses it for political leverage?

This is very sweet.
What infuriated me about CLRS was that so much of the content was in the exercises - that had no answers you could check your results against. There are solutions guides you can look up now, but that they would publish such a hostile math book in the first place rubbed me the wrong way.
This may come as a surprise, but most professional historians don't accept the idea of there being a singular "truth" to be known. I'll link some different perspectives discussing this ([0], [1], [2]), but suffice to say that most historical work becomes dramatically less useful to society if the primary purposes of history are to satisfy our idle curiosity about the past and figure out some objective temporal ordering of events. Those fuzzy questions of narrative and "propaganda" are a huge part of why we do history, even if they cause all sorts of issues.

Are we past World War II propaganda yet?

I have a feeling that most of us still believe a pretty twisted narrative where things are just black and white, which frankly, can absolutely never be the case. Humans are never completely evil or completely good, but that's the narrative I hear most of the time, not just with current events but with a lot of wars more recent than I would say 200 years... for example, today, Napoleon is not considered to have been the devil himself, though for at least 100 years after his defeat, I believe the countries he briefly overpowered thought of him as such. What do you think about that?
It's a topic everyone has an opinion on I guess and engagement drives what gets surfaced.
...on a device that weighs about 10 grams with a heat capacity likely around 0.4J/gram-degrees-C.

10Ws for such a device if I did the math right is around a 2.5C/sec rise in device temperature.

Even worse, when reading this sentence in the comments, I thought it was referring to monospace coding fonts, which happen to share the same "legibility features" as required by DIN 1450 (tailed l, dotted 0, etc.)
Cheaper than immediately before the war. Far more expensive than the long-term average of the 2000s and 2010s.

Edit: also, immediately before the war, Russia already seems to have started restricting supply, driving up prices.
I have a VoIP system at home as well. I first used an RPi with Asterisk, but later switched to a Yeastar box with FXS ports (to connect a couple of Old School wired phones).

One thing that is making me REALLY MAD is that there are NO IPV6 TRUNK PROVIDERS in the US. Not a single one. At least none where I can just enter my credit card and get a phone line.

Somehow, the protocol designed to restore the end-to-end connectivity is not used for the poster child of end-to-end connectivity.

The DAX40 is a piece of German financial engineering, aka not fair to compare to the S&P500: the DAX40 excludes a large part of public German corporations + as a price index it includes distributed dividends, which causes an unfair advantage when compared to a price return index like S&P500.
Elsewhere in this thread there are comments about needing to continue pace to move beyond React. I don't think we've seen the end of the churn. I agree that React is a pretty stable base these days and you can just work with that, but it's gotten long in the tooth in places so new frameworks are still sprouting up.
Not having to deeply understand lower level activities allows people to concentrate on higher level activities, enabling the building of more complex systems. I suppose it is good to have a few people who know everything but it suffices to have collective coverage with redundancy. Unless you have severe constraints on the size of the crew, as with a plane or a submarine. The software world is not like that.
I don't think they conspired to lie, they just reported the information they were getting from the government. They didn't have any way to independently verify any of it.
So these builds happen even if there's no change?

Not quite. It might be efficient, but only if you need megawatt-level propulsion power.

This is not uncommon in engineering in general. There are many, many examples of devices that are highly efficient but only at higher power levels/speeds.

- DuPont's attempt at a US coup (1933) [3]

- The Israeli nuclear bomb test. (1979) [4]

That's how I built notionsmith.ai

I don't go directly to an LLM asking for structured data, or even a final answer, so you can type literally anything into the entry field and get a useful result

People are trying to treat them as conversational, but I'd say for most products it'll be rare to ever want more than one response for a given system prompt, and instead you'll want to build a final answer procedurally.
The education system, controlled by their masters, has no interest in education the people to blame their masters, so of course most are uneducated in this regard.
I mean, yea, I can pass a message with the 418 if I just have:

return "this error, blah", 418

I understand your point, and it's a good one. I really don't need to use 418, I just find it useful. I think the key is that when I see that 418 error, I know it's something I put in there at once.

I also think a naked 418 is a bit cleaner if it did end up on my production server, just because I'm not tipping my hat too much by returning anything about what's happening behind the scenes.

It could be a lot cleaner if I did everything by the book, but where I use this is just my hobby project, and I'm just going for doing as much as I can quickly, and the mental energy that goes into error handling could easily add very significant time. Again, you're not wrong, and it would be better if i clearly articulated these errors in the long run.

> but not real ownership of the actual work that goes into advocating for and building the correct solution

What you think is the correct solution is often not the correct appropriation of engineering resources for the business.

> which management is often clueless about

It is your job as an engineer to communicate this to management. If you are not capable of doing do so, you are incompetent as an engineer. Being an engineer isn’t being paid to just build whatever you want. That’s how you end up with Juicero.
I couldn't make the comparison since I upgraded my internet connection at the same time. I strongly suspect most (all?) of the improvement came to that.

The Lutheran reformation was a political movement. And the spread of this movement was dependent on things like population density, economic potential and proximity to catholic institutions and influence. Conditions based on the above lead to adopting the heterodoxy. Not the other way around.

Contrary to this, what the article here is talking about is an intellectual exercise.
Then there is the hedonic treadmill, and there is some evidence that people born with a certain level of innate satisfaction with life that they keep reverting to.
No, the fact is that somehow for decades German authorities think they have a right / a budget (that is build up by taxes paid for by natural Germans and also documented, naturalized, legally working people now living in Germany) to spend on things here and there over half of the world, be it illegal migrants, approved migrants, EU-internal subsidies or subsidies and projects for other nations across the globe. Ukraine, Afghanistan and Syria come lately to mind.

That this insane behavior doesn't bode well regardless of 'polictical education' should come to no ones' surprise. Especially if you, as a so-so earner, pay almost 40% in taxes and social security / healthcare.

Have you heard of brinkmanship?

A hypothetical country threatening NZ with nukes in this example would be presenting an argument: either let us in, or else we will nuke you - in hopes that NZ prefers being overcrowded but surviving, over being glassed. NZ will not take the deal - at first. The other country can insist more and more, until the situation is so tense that any random event could trigger launching the missiles.

And then, if NZ acquiesces and lets people from one country evacuate to their land, another nuclear country would ask for the same deal. Or they may even point half the nukes at the first country early on, to make sure that either they get the deal or no one else.

Thing with brinkmanship is that at no point anyone wants to actually use the nukes - but at every point it's locally optimal to up the threat, and there is no obvious stopping condition until someone trips over a cable, hits a launch console, and the nukes starts flying.
The plants need light. But.. we're indoors. However.. we can install grow lamps. Now.. we need a way to power them. I know.. put solar panels on the roof.

This is literally what many of these "operations" have done.

That was the moment they could have realized that none of this is actually going to work in any way that could be described as "an improvement."
Basocally everyone wanted NS2 to be gone, including the Russians. So in all honesty, I'd expect saboteurs frok NATO country A helping out saboteurs from non-NATO country B with explosives and detonators if needed.

By the way, nobody wanted NS2 by the time it was technologocally ready. Funny enough, if Trump wouldn't have been president a deal for CNG anf LNG would have been had a lot easier and earlier.

> Most managers don't care about the team or company, and definitely don't promote based on stuff like "improve process"

This does not match my experience at literally any software company (including multiple failing startups, a successful startup, and huge corporations).

I suspect your issue is that you’re not actually aware of what was providing value to the company you worked for and your managers were caring about seemingly inexplicable things.
> a lot more expensive typically

more expensive to operate existing plants that were already paid for a long time ago? i could never understand the shutting down part.
Yes.. and you produce a product that sells at $20 per gram. That's why they do it. There are pretty much zero food products that sell at that price per weight.
I trust historians even less than i trust Hollywood. Hollywood (eventually) has to make a profit, historians have no incentive except to push a narrative.
Nuclear is dirt cheap when you have your power plants already built. Most of the cost of nuclear is building cost and related capital cost for the loans you take to build one and teardown/disposal. All German reactors had already paid off, teardown and disposal are deposited up front. So just running cost for them, mostly people and fuel, which is in the 5ct/kWh range (for sources e.g. look at the last IPCC report, but good numbers are hard to come by for the usual trade secret reasons).

Wind is also in the 5ct/kWh range, solar at 10ct/kWh. However, to get both to a load factor of over 90% (which is typical for nuclear power plants) you would need a sufficient amount of storage and overbuild your capacity, which will cost an additional >10ct/kWh.

Tesla did not position themselves as an "energy provider" ala "Exxon." Exxon owns the _supply_ not the _distribution_. It's an entirely backwards analysis of the situation.
