I did some more research and it seems like we’re both right. Yes, the US OSHA (the Australian body has the same name) does not actually have a national standard for heat-related illnesses. It does however have plenty of (non-Californian) material specifically on heat-related illnesses, e.g. https://www.osha.gov/otm/section-3-health-hazards/chapter-4. According to https://www.shrm.org/resourcesandtools/legal-and-compliance/... (archive here https://archive.md/rHMQm) this is enforced under the general duty clause:

> Federal OSHA enforces heat-related safety under the Occupational Safety and Health Act's general duty clause, which requires employers to provide workplaces that are "free from recognized hazards that are causing or are likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees."

https://www.fisherphillips.com/news-insights/osha-unveils-pr... agrees:

> There is no heat-related or heat stress standard in place. Instead, federal OSHA has traditionally enforced heat-related hazards through its General Duty Clause.

I will happily admit I was surprised to learn that US federal OSHA does not have specific heat-related illness regulations and have been instead making do with Commerce Clause-style general regulation to enforce heat safety instead. But I was also correct when I said there is plenty of US federal (not state-specific) OSHA material on heat-related illnesses - that osha link above has a detailed breakdown including worked examples on how to use Wet Bulb Globe Temperature testing equipment to measure heat stress risks, tables of Threshold Limit Values, etc.

I also found a convincing explanation for my confusion as to why the former head of OSHA would say that OSHA does not have a national standard for heat-related illnesses when they empirically do have lots of specific material on assessing and managing heat risk: US federal OSHA is (as of October 2021) working on instituting a comprehensive national heat standard https://www.regulations.gov/document/OSHA-2021-0009-0001 and that seems to be why the lack of a national standard was emphasized - it is no doubt a mammoth and expensive task, and it is the natural order of bureaucracy that any such task must be continually justified to protect from bean counter cuts.

Ontario's DER Permitting Database
We built a tool for Ontarians (Canada) to easily find permits for solar and battery energy projects.

It can be complicated to fulfil the permitting requirements for all the different utility and building jurisdictions out there. But we absolutely must overcome this barrier in order to accelerate renewable energy in the province!

My cofounder Mike scoured through utility documents, building permits, hidden web pages and took long phone calls so you don't have to :)

Background - one of my uncles was the manager of a small (~2,000 customers) municipal (city-owned) electrical power system in Michigan from ~1945 to ~1995.

It can work, and work very well. But electricity is extremely unforgiving of technical incompetence, and financial incompetence can also kill you (generally in the slightly-longer term). If you can't find and keep good managers on both sides (while the big, for-profit players are trying to hire them away, for obvious reason)...then all the feel-goods and eco-friendly bragging rights in the world won't keep your system afloat.

And your system does not need any interference from an actual for-profit utility to suffer organizational failure. Well-intended idiots and short-sighted politicians can do that themselves, in very short order.
I honestly think the reason most food delivery used to be pizza, is because it actually tastes better when the cheese has cooled a little.

In the context of "having a harvard degree implies a certain amount of skill and capability of to improve the world", I think its fair to honestly look at who he's being held up to in comparison. There a lot people in the world who, if you asked them who was the most dangerous person to graduate from Harvard, they'd pick George W. Bush over some guy who killed 3 and injured not quite 2 dozen.

Getting into or graduating from Harvard as an undergrad doesn't mean much. Granted, Kaczynski didn't buy his way in, but the comment as written doesn't differentiate between some rich kid buying their way in and some genius earning their way in.

Still don't understand the opposition to that. Students get affordable, safe, private housing on campus, where there's a million places to hang out beyond your windowless bedroom. Libraries, open spaces, study halls, cafes.

The alternative is often paying $1K for some barely maintained triplex basement shared bedroom off of campus, from a negligent landlord.

What the article fails to address is… We all need food. Yeah it’s great working on GPL code and ensuring it’s all open. But when companies consider your gpl library vs someone else’s mit library they will naturally go with mit. And then they’ll say “well we’re using this free library already might as well donate/fund it”. So suddenly this MIT dev is able to put way more time into the mit library than your gpl library because it becomes their job. Something that feeds them. Their library gets better faster… And more and more companies use it and fund it.

GPL is great if absolutely everyone is on board and everyone is fed. But that’s not the world we live in.

Can you identify a single other license that addresses all the shortcomings in the MIT license in a better way than the Blue Oak Model license?

> We valorize the people who break out and accomplish great things that were thought impossible

Even then a lot of things aren't literally impossible and no one thinks they're literally impossible, it's just to make it happen requires a billion dollars. Unless you've got a billion dollars such things are practically impossible.

The spectrum of possible things is highly dependent on how much money you've got available. Even big companies don't necessarily have a billion dollars to spend on some new endeavor.

I find it disingenuous to throw around the word "impossible". Impossible is building cars out of ground up unicorn horns or magic dragon egg shells. Building marketable electric cars was never impossible. It just required money up front with a long horizon to build a business rather than return profits right away.
Anecdotally I have had trouble reconciling this seemingly prevalent "you can't disassemble Ikea furniture" with my own experience. It's not made for it sure but bookshelves, bed frames and tables can all be reassembled reasonably well. Anything smaller you can just put in the truck when moving.
Yeah, but Texas isn't a state known for thinking ahead. For example, those houses need water and electricity...but Texas doesn't care because that's your problem. Meanwhile, they are collecting your taxes.
> had Kaczynski chosen peaceful decades-later contemporary Internet discourse as his means of promoting his ideas, he'd simply be tarred and feathered as an "alt-right" nutjob, just like everyone else with views that contradict the present Western civilization status quo.

So what? Anyone with an ounce of spirituality knows that living your life to be admired in your lifetime is not the real goal. Ivan Illich spent his life being as lefty and now he's trendy on the right (making similar critiques, btw). Truth is beautiful when it's spoken for its own sake -- insecurity makes it ugly. It can't be forced into the world by terror.

Kaczynski killed because he was unbalanced and insecure, not because he held (partial) truth. Better thinkers on the issue were dime-a-dozen, even in his day (E.M. Forester, Samuel Butler, McLuhan). And it wasn't his terrorism but sophomoricly intellectual "incel" rage and religious fundamentalist movements that are finally waking people up.

edit: ... and this isn't to say that truth never justifies any form of violence, just that there is absolutely nothing to learn from Kaczynski's brand -- which was ignoble and totally futile to his intended ends.

CA|Browser Forum Rules require hardware-backed keys for code signing
Starting 2023-06-01, new rules went into effect which require a hardware backed private key for a code signing certificate. The new rules make code signing in CD pipelines more difficult unless you give up control of your private key completely to a cloud service provider. Some emboldened authorities are even charging you for the privilege of using said private key which you must still pay for.

What do you think? Is this even more of a grift, or a step in the right direction for security?

> But to those who do, all of this followed a pretty straightforward path, even though certain key steps were only obvious in hindsight.

The research still largely relies on post-hoc justification for these architectural benefits. We know CNNs work, we can open them up and see what they're doing, but we didn't get there from a theoretical foundation that predicted this outcome, nor do we have a real theoretical framework to justify them.

The history of pre-science is filled with post-hoc justification that is very similar, allows for practitioners to make progress, but ultimately has turned out to be wildly incorrect.

> it is actually pretty obvious.

In this entire reply you leave out the theoretical justifications to back up this claim. You show many example of intuitively why these architectures work, but never dive into the rigorous explanation, because such explanations don't exist yet.

This comment simply outlines the growing "bag of tricks" we've built up over the years to solve problems, along with the common post-hoc justifications. But at it's current state this is not different than alchemy, which did get some ideas correct, was able to create some useful practices but ultimately failed to provide a theoretical frame work for what was being done.

I don't know any serious deep learning researcher who disagrees that at this point the practice far out paces our theoretical understanding.
Ok, we've put ideas in the title above. Thanks!

Literally the first thing she says is “in an ideal world, yes”.

> If you want to survive a cloud outage, you need a multi-AZ or multi-region deployment, and that costs developer hours.

RDS databases are one click to set up in multi-AZ, and if your stack is Kubernetes based or at least EC2 autoscale capable it isn't much more work to make it multi-AZ as well.

Multi-Region deployments however, these are indeed expensive and nasty to set up.

If you hear this “idiotic” take so often, then you should have had something more logical or thoughtful to say instead of not knowing where to begin.

For starters, your last clause “rather than to pay 10 cents more for something less wasteful” reeks of unintelligence.

Think about it. You were replying to a consumer. You, yourself, admit that you hear this “idiotic” take often. That means that you’ve heard many consumers say this a lot. So how can you say “gasp consumers don’t want that” when you literally admitted that you’ve heard many consumers say the opposite.

OP could also say that they’ve heard your “idiotic” take often. You don’t think “maybe consumers want it that way” is a cliche too?

LMAO.

(Sorry for being mean. I’m limiting myself to replying to one dumb person day. I was at 10 before.)
Communities rarely want to maximize growth: at most, they want a slow and steady growth, and at least they may wish to shrink. You'll find most long-lived communities that actually still have a sense of identity and norms have some form of barrier to entry: whether that be obscurity, extremely aggressive moderation, a strong set of norms which are actively policed by members, or a culture sufficiently toxic (at least superficially) to keep most people away. Often a combination of all of the above. I think for most moderately sized communities too much growth is more of a problem than too little.
I get where you are coming from, but why not? What IKEA produces for the price is seriously impressive. Also why would you need particle board or MDF when filling furniture with cardboard is way cheaper and mostly fits the bill.

However, I think that we as software developers are more like hand crafted furniture makers. And that there is WYSIWYG (like Squarespace) for the masses. And IMHO there is nothing wrong with that.

> Being happy and having substance does not directly correlate to how much money you have.

There is a correlation. There's an ideal income level that correlates with increased overall happiness. Less than that, or more than that, and people will be less happy.

But I agree with your larger point. I've lived destitute, among others who were in grinding poverty, and I've lived privileged, among others with plenty of available money.

I've never noticed that one group is really any happier than the other. Some of the happiest people I've met lived lives that most would think would be miserable, and some of the most miserable people I've met lived lives that most would consider golden.

Happiness is about what's going on inside your mind, not so much about what's going on outside of it.

Kaczynski needs to be understood as much as a brilliant propagandist as a philosopher. Dismissing him as a philosopher because he drew his ideas from others misses the point. Regardless of what one thinks of the man, his ideas and actions (and I strongly disagree with many of his ideas and all of his violent actions), he has clearly been more influential than Ellul in the US by a wide margin.
