Interesting.

When I looked at their example poll - what was interesting was I started to think tactically - as votes now cost - I'm much more interested in not wasting votes on issues that aren't going to be closely fought.

ie Even if I had strong feelings about topic X - should I vote if I already can guess the outcome of the vote - surely smarter to avoid wasting that vote and focus on something that's likely to be closely contested?

So you end up with a secondary market in information about how the vote is or is likely to go.

Ideally, as a user, what I'd like is the ability see the existing state of all the polls, and be able to dynamically adjust my vote based on the current voting state.

If the platform doesn't do that - then any differential in information about how the votes might go creates an unfair voting dynamic - ie the voting outcome isn't just about how much you care.....

If you map that back to say hackernews threads and voting - would people hold off voting, hoping somebody else spends their vote first - leading to less interaction.

In the end - isn't the quality of votes simply a reflection of the quality of the electorate?
The problem with anything to do with messing with clouds, cloud seeding, etc, is that for _most_ countries, it's absolutely going to to affect other countries. Few countries are large enough or sit near enough water, to do these things without casting a long shadow.

People are right to be afraid. If China starts trying to grow a desert somewhere, it's nearly guaranteed that the desert effect will generally be _displaced_ not removed. If it's displaced to another poorer country, are we suppose to just let that happen? Are we then going to give them tech to displace it further until the least among us has to suffer?

Sure, all this could be some how negotiated, but there's no evidence of the global will to even agree that climate change is a "bad thing"(tm)
I am in the US and don't know EU dynamics in terms of comp and lifestyle but one thing that is true globally is that experience and levels are not achievements or badges such as one accumulates in a game. The overall culture and the relationships with the individual people should be the emphasis in terms of understanding opportunities for growth. Ask yourself whether the people are people you want to learn from and grow with, across all the different dimensions that personal growth entails.
I use `act` on a couple projects. It's great for quickly iterating locally and keeping the local test environment close-ish to the actual GitHub runner.

In the past I used Jenkins with the web hooks to run builds, which worked ok. Actually I think we just polled GitHub for changes instead of doing the web hook, but it's a similar effect.

My responsibility is only to myself and my wife. I help out my now grown (step)sons who I love as my own kids because I can. But they weren’t my “responsibility” once they got grown.

My parents are still healthy and self sufficient at 80 and 82. If they weren’t, I would definitely take care of them as the only child.
Take care that not all of king and pawn versus king are drawn. Their result depends on relative position of kings.

Nice example of more extreme imbalance is that sometimes King+Queen vs King+Pawn is drawn - that is when pawn is on seventh rank of bishop or rook file with defending king in front of it, while attacking king is not close enough to force checkmate.

See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queen_versus_pawn_endgame#Quee...
Yes, it's too long, I should have made a series of 3 posts instead, each focused on one particular idea.

For software developers your comment is correct. If you’re a Canadian citizen and a professional engineer all you need to get a TN visa is a job offer. There is a path to get both citizenship and a professional engineering title for foreign engineers so eventually the engineers with an engineering degree can make it to the US.
Huh? I clicked on both of them and if I wasn't paying attention I'd have thought I was on reddit. What's the problem? Or are you saying starting your own shard or node or whatever it's called is confusing compared with creating an account on reddit? Because if so they're totally different levels of thing.
What a great game.
Inexpensive? The stuff laid out in there would require a global effort. Microbubbles across the ocean surface! Spraying salt into the air to form reflective clouds (and I'm sure spraying salt everywhere wouldn't hurt anything either).

I wonder what $400 billion/year in just solar panel purchasing and install would do to the climate? $400 billion/year could build a lot of nuclear plants as well. Begs the question, if we had unlimited money, what would we do that would be potential solve the climate crisis?

86,400 requests per day is Reddit’s historic per-user limit, but the number was picked as a maximum, not an average or a number any significant fraction of users would be hitting any significant fraction of the time. An app aggregating many users, if reasonably efficient, would be expected to have an average per-user rate over time much much lower than the single-user, single-moment absolute limit.
> The causes of obesity were poorly understood back then, partially due to the sugar industry's lobbying.

I am fat, and the sugar industry has nothing to do with it. I don't like sugar, or sweet food in general; I eat healthy, old-fashioned home-cooked meals prepared from zero-sugar raw ingredients - they just happen to be consistently bigger meals than a stressed out software engineer with a low physical activity level ought to be eating. So the weight increases.

There is a sane medium to be found somewhere between the "fat person = greedy and evil person" trope of 20th century fiction, and today's "fat person = innocent, agency-less victim of the Big Sugar conspiracy" trope.
Microsoft ends up, wrongly, in the firing line for a bunch of things, similar to the story you told and to the sqlite_ comment in TFA.

Notice that on iOS (for example) if an app crashes it just disappears > poof! < and it’s gone.

On Windows when an app crashes (or you kill a non responsive app), you then see a dialog with Microsoft Windows branding saying that it is logging that the app crashed. As nerds we understand why… but the result is that the user doesn’t curse the app, they curse Microsoft. Whereas when an iOS app disappears they curse the app, not Apple.

I am obssessing over this when maintaining my knowledge/artifact base. Currently I am keeping it in git repository with few categories and I use 3 mechanisms - tags on end of file names and directories, iso8601 dates as prefix on some locations, and nothing on thrid ones.

So,

1. notes a-la gists use tags:

'notes/Rsync notes #cli #foss #notes #x-platform.md'
'notes/Windows initialization #windows #powershell.md'
'notes/Modafinil notes #medical #nootropic.md'

2. event-like things use both dates and tags

'work/meetings/2023-01-03 Project XYZ meeting #project-xyz.md'

3. stuff I just collect dont use anything or some of above

'dms/wallpapers/w1.png; w2.png ...'
'dms/shopping/2023-06-13 Dyson Absolute 15/README.md; receipt.jpg'

I keep basic folder hierarchy very limited for now.
I use vscode to commit any change on save and pull git on folder open, making this behave like always in sync cloud a la Github Gists, especially together with vscode sync that brings my plugins, configs and shortcuts everhwhere.

CTRL+P to quickly find stuff by name or tags, and vscodes very fast ripgrep search to get files containing any content - so I just need to remember any word or phrase to find it. If I can't remember anything I browse over tags (having handy script to display all of them) or dates (since I usually know a time range). As another mechansism, I use double commander file manager with its fuzzy file names search to get interactive lists by typing tags or keywords while in particular folder.

To encrypt some pages I use GPG with vscode extension.

This serves me well, and I don't get lost, either when searching for previous knowledge or when trying to find where the single one is.

I evaluated Johnny Decimal prior to this, and it didn't fit this workflow - seems ad hoc enough so I can live without it and has nothing tags or good search can't solve. Also, it feels not flexible enough particularly as stuff can't have multiple categories. Tags are much better mechanism for information organization, you just need to keep them organized, keep their number relatively low, and have mechanism for delete/merge/move/rename which is simple enough here as it is all on the file system and is a few shell commands away.
I love everything about this: the concept, even the name. I feel Johnny Decimal just needs a graphic. From a few minutes of Googling, I think something like this: https://clipart-library.com/img1/1252227.gif

Interestingly both of the use cases you mentioned are quite amenable to demand response. Big freezers can be set to a few degrees cooler and be switched off during peak electricity demand. In [1] the researchers even call them "ideal candidates for implementing demand response strategies". For aluminium smelters, you are correct in that they can't be turned off entirely (the cryolite will solidify) but it is often possible to reduce energy demand significantly by stopping the electrolysis reaction but still heating the mixture to keep it molten. Then later, when peak demand has passed you can switch on the electrolysis process again.

We're building our new infrastructure with Terraform - and experimenting with postgresql for state. So far so good, but we have only a handful of resources.

Bit of a catch-22 to setup managed postgres for state, tailscale network with a vm as exit-node (to access postgres via VPN/lan - not Internet) - via Terraform - and then switch state from local (initial setup) to postgres.

But nice to be able to eg: interact with a different provider for DNS, supplying IPs from other resources.
I think you’re right. I also think that’s a big problem for python as a language. For a lot of use cases just choosing a different language from the jump that allows you to easily compile a standalone executable can make life so, so much easier.

It is interesting, the market wants 2 types of colas and an infinite number of beer varieties at the moment.
Yeah. More commonly rook endings are notoriously hard to win.

I gained a lot of rating once I started really studying the ins and outs of all the different rook and pawn vs rook endings. Because no matter what the tablebase might say, you have to be very precise with or without the pawn.

So I started getting a lot of wins out of equal positions, and got a lot better at saving a draw in bad positions.

Pawn and minor piece vs minor piece is also fraught with drawing chances, especially with bishops. Because you can just sac the piece for the pawn and there's insufficient material for mate.

Queen and pawn vs queen is basically a 3 result game at the club level. So many ways to blunder your queen. And at GM level it tends towards a draw I think. Though it's so stupidly complicated I never even tried to properly study it.

Enshitification: The process of making something shit

In conclusion, new words are great. A word for new words is neologism, it is a very nice word. I think enshitification really hits the mark here - something good is made bad. And it is visceral, you can feel the process slipping through your fingers as you try and hold on to the past.

I have a couple of goals where Pixelfed serves me well. I want to improve my photography, as well as get outside (away from all my screens) more. So I've encouraged my OCD/hyper-fixation to post daily. To improve something, I think you need to have criticism of some type. I measure that in terms of likes or reposts on pixelfed. It's not perfect, but it is some validation. Sometimes people post comments, but that's unusual.

I prefer Pixelfed since I don't want to feed the Meta beast.
It also makes me wonder why it's not wrapped into a binary using one of the various tools available.

Because they're all hard to use, fall down in all kinds of corner cases, tend to produce huge binaries and have really bad startup time.

It forces you to whittle your categories down to ten (and sub categories). I would argue that in and of itself is a useful constraint.
Not sure if this is true. If you are high status you can easily afford this as you don't feel any repercussions at all. If you are low social status you might feel the effects of being at that status and probably start caring greatly!

1. Anaconda tooling and PyPI tooling are just different things, you cannot substitute one for the other, so whether you had any success with Anaconda or not is really irrelevant to OPs problem.

2. How much more easier to you want this to be:

python3.8 -m venv .venv38
python3.11 -m venv .venv311

This, at least for me, creates two environments with two different minor versions of Python.

NB. I think, you meant "minor" version -- why would you want to switch between Python 2.X and Python 3.X today? Or did you actually meant that?
The fact that a computer bought from a store, that you pay good money for, comes with this crapware installed shows that even when you do pay, sometimes you are still the product not the customer.

As someone who grew up in the area (mid 20s atm), there is a well known phrase amongst locals (at least my mates), the "Brighton Bubble." Also yes you're spot on about keeping ties through all levels of education, at least in my case. It was funny living in Sydney for a year, and returning to Melbourne, and when dating one of the first questions you'd be asked is what school you went to. At least, that's my experience, with a couple of people.

But it's not all gloom and doom, the closer you get to the CBD the more opportunities for connection open up. More activities to do in general, more people who are new to the city and are less likely to have ossified social circles, more public funding for that kind of thing. Melbourne has a rich variety of cultures and perspectives to immerse yourself in if you can align your life along the same axes that nurture those cultures and perspectives. Out in the burbs, particularly in the Bubble, less so. Doesn't help that Brighton and its surrounds are skewed to preserve the lifestyles of the people who grew up in the area (this is the politest possible way I can describe it). Speaking from experience there are plenty of people who left the insular communities of their youth around here, because they never felt like they belonged, and never looked back.

Also worth remembering the lockdowns didn't help. I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for in terms of social connection but my point is, please keep plugging away.
