If leaking is wrong, then self-sacrifice doesn't make it right. If leaking is right, then fleeing the consequences doesn't make it wrong.

Trying to make this more about the perceived moral character of the leakers instead of the information that they leaked completely misses the point.
The odds are that's a pithy convenient dichotomy. The (more nuanced) reality is what concerns me. Maybe I have a rose coloured view of their jobs but these well educated lawyers should know better and push back. They don't have the excuse of being beat cops who decided to get a college degree and apply for the FBI at 23, or whatever typical trajectory these guys take, before recruiting agents to push belligerent-tier forced arrests.

As far as layout is concerned, if you don't mind me brainstorming some ideas, I'll share some thoughts.

When a search term yields many results, it's left to the user to the user to search the results for the site that will yield the "best" match for what they're after. It seems like people assume that the better the search engine is, the better it is at predicting what the user is really after by putting it at the top of the listing. But this can be rather difficult when the original search terms are pretty generic and the user is required to scroll and check many results. If there were a way help the user sort the results based on relevant criteria, maybe that would make that search easier. And personally, I like things that give users a little more say in how they get fed information. Allow sort by popularity, frequency of search terms in page, number of pages in site's domain, date of last page edit (no idea if this is possible to get), etc...

Maybe have multiple columns of search results. One column that lists results that match all words in the query, another for only one or two words. Or maybe columns that list results that include the user's query plus likely related topics. Or a set of search refinement tools that can further help the user sort based on any number of criteria, or filter results by specific related terms.

Slightly related, I really like your encyclopedia site. In addition to being incredibly nice to use all on its own, perhaps it (from the 'See Also', 'Further Reading', 'Related articles', etc... sections) could be mined for suggesting additional search terms/info a user could add to their search or filter their results by. For example if I search for Tcl and get a bunch of results, some tools that suggested filtering (or a search instead option?) the results to those that included Tk, expect, and TclX might help me get to what I'm after quicker.

No idea if any of that is practical or would even actually be that useful in practice.
Algolia has stunning latency and I assume a bucketload of traffic, I suspect they just have very competent infrastructure and fast as hell code and queries, perhaps thr same is true here.

> When you hit a wall on one task, you could say “that’s it, I’m done for the day” and head home, or you could switch over to something else that has a different rhythm and get more accomplished.

That’s pretty much what I do. I hit the “enough” on a task because I ran out of brain cycles or just frustration and I go for a walk or pick another task.

Maybe it is the advantage of working from home for a small company but people understand if you’re fried or need to do something else. They know I’ll get it done in the end.

That freedom means I also will be inspired and rush to the computer late at night and have the energy to get something in / done too. Not because they ask me, but because I want to do it.

I don't know that it's technically difficult, but Linux hates breaking backward compatibility. If they remove a filesystem, some users won't be able to mount their filesystems any more.

I notice GitHub Copilot will try to autocomplete when I am typing secrets into .env files.

> lack of information/technology or centrally planned prices, some of which resulted in failed states (e.g. Venezuela and the Soviet Union)

Venezuela has never had Soviet-style central planning. It's a market economy with a public sector only slightly larger than the OECD average. Their current situation is largely the result of excess social spending: first at the expense of investment and diversification away from oil prices were high, then at the expense of currency stability when oil prices crashed.
A thief is mostly just scifi nonsense.

Most Earthquakes would damage the casks. Unless its right on the fault line this at best causes some damages that would have to be repaired. This is incredibly unlikely to ever happen in most of the world. Also burring the casks is more likely to cause issues in case of a major unexpected earth quake. This is one of those maybe ever few 100 years somebody has to move the casks.

Floods are pretty predictable in where they happen, don't put the nuclear waste there. And if somebody put them there in error, somebody at some point might have to slightly move them. If countries figure out to not put something away from a flood prawn area, why do you think they can build a major geologically save location that can hold up for 100k years?

> some rare natural disasters

I guess if a vulcano happens and damages cask people might have bigger issues. And again, simply not really relevant for the waste majority of places.

Once you are at maybe some unknown super disaster might happen then the whole logic with the deep geostorage also doesn't hold up anymore.

Finding a location above ground that is reasonably safe for 100 years is far, far, far, far, far easier and cheaper then building a geological storage that can last 100k years.

> forget to go back and check if the container is intact

Ok, then some light radiation might leak in a area that is likely far away from human population. Maybe not fantastic but also not some major problem that is worth spending billions of $ fixing.

And again, if a government can't manage to get a guy every year to do a quick check, then your country has far bigger problems. Also this monitoring can be done by a private person with a Geiger counter even if a country has collapse into anarchy, and people would avoid that location.
I'm no expert on the subject, but I'm to understand things were somewhat cleaner in the past. A critical problem is that, like many languages, English's pronunciation shifted over the years, but the spelling did not. In truth, I think the spelling was somewhat unstable. It was somewhat subjective back then.

But the spelling became exceptionally bad after the printing press with movable type (i.e. Gutenberg's printing press). The printers decided for themselves on certain spellings and the spellings really froze in place based on the choices the printers made. This was also the period of rapid changes in pronunciation, particularly vowels. But English never really had a spelling reform except Webster's small one in early USA. And yet the spelling was locked in place. Whoops!

It's kludgey to graft snapshots and compression onto a classic in-place filesystem, so you'd probably end up with something slower and more complex than ZFS/btrfs/bcachefs. I remember tux2/tux3 was touting its simplicity but I don't know what happened.

It's worth noting that if you go to a doctor's office and get some treatment some of the evidence behind that treatment will probably overlap with the replication crisis.

I have not criticized them for spending money, but spending money inefficiently and on the wrong things.

What would actually help generations to come is innovating in terms of GenIV nuclear reactors that can reduce the total amount of waste. That could potentially reduce the global waste, rather then this solution that only works for Finland and has to be replicated many more times to actually solve the waste solution.

Burning up the waste and turning it into 300 year waste is the actual long term sustainable solution.
"How much money did they waste?" is perhaps a more honest way of phrasing this.
> allows the ability for a completely declarative “dumb” dependency graph that can be reasoned about without dealing with build logic that must be executed.

Nixer Domen Kozar called this property 'static metadata' in one of his talks¹ on Python packaging from a Nix perspective years ago.

The thing he was interested in was the ability to evaluate the dependencies of an upstream software package without having to actually 'install' it or evaluate bespoke upstream code to do so. The reason for interest in this within the Nix community is that by default Nix performs builds in a restricted sandbox, and one of its restrictions is that no network access is allowed.

To use upstream build tools (e.g., Maven or Cargo or NPM, etc.) inside the Nix sandbox, then, fetching dependencies and verifying their contents is deferred from the upstream build tool to Nix, which does so in a controlled, deterministic way that just fetches and doesn't have hooks to let those deps run custom code.

In order to make that happen, Nix has to 'know' ahead of time where to fetch those dependencies and what their contents will be, and what you describe wishing for here— a 'dumb dependency graph'— is more or less exactly what Nix wants to consume (although sometimes just a list of pairs of URIs and content hashes will do). For well-behaved upstream package managers, i.e., those which can emit comprehensive static metadata, that's exactly what Nix does: it just translates a Cargo or NPM lock file into its usual conventions for describing source archives, and then that can be used to download those dependencies in the usual safe/restricted way.

For package managers that don't emit adequate 'dumb' package metadata, Nix has to proceed by either emulating and replacing those upstream dependency resolvers (very error-prone) or by a hack implemented as a Maven plugin or similar that inspects dependencies as Maven resolves them and gets the metadata Nix needs.

As for flakes, flake inputs are certainly a kind of dependency that's distinct from package dependencies in the Nix world, and also 'dumber' in the sense that flakes don't have to be 'built' like packages to be consumed by other flakes. And yeah, in the case of flakes that provide packages, you can definitely swap one flake for another and allow that new flake to provide customized build instructions if those are needed for that version of the package it provides. But there are complexities and entanglements that flakes don't/can't eliminate, since downstream dependencies can still have implicit expectations of build outputs, and you can't really know in advance if the package in the new flake will meet all of those. You kinda still have to be able to peek into those and examine them and fix them up in a pinch. Plus you can write a flake in a way that depends on the build process of a package in a flake it consumes, e.g. by using package overrides on something provided in the upstream flake.

The comment syntax for most (virtually all?) shells actually doesn't start with a pound sign but with the word boundary or whitespace preceding the pound sign. You can have unescaped pound signs within tokens in shell languages, and thus they are used (perhaps unfortunately) as delimiters in the current flake URI schema.
>> but really its a flat fee commission on the seller

No, it's nothing like a commission. It's a fee due whether the house sells or not.

Basically FSBO sellers decide where,and how much, to spend their marketing dollars. Of course related-party transactions have no marketing costs at all, but the rest figure they can market themselves for less than the commission.

This $1000 is really just an ad placement.
If I lived in the US, I'd seriously consider moving just to give my kids a different schooling experience that doesn't involve the daily fear of being murdered.

Nuclear waste will not simply be lost. The only way it gets lost if society literally collapses.

And if that happens the small amount of nuclear waste is the least important problem anybody will have.
I think you may be confused with how FSD works. FSD does not just disengage. For any of those reasons.

If the FSD stack crashes, or if it is completely unable to track its position on the road, you will get a forced disengagement - a loud alarm with a big flashing red “Take Control Now” alert.

That doesn’t happen if the lines get hard to see. That doesn’t happen if snow starts to fall. That doesn’t happen if the sun is at a bad angle. Forced disengagements of FSD are very rare.

The human driver of course can engage or disengage FSD at any time. The system will want a clear view of the lanes at the moment in time that FSD is first engaged, after which it will stay on until the driver decides to turn it off. You can engage FSD at night, in the rain/snow, etc.

But I can see how you might assume there are dangerous conditions that humans are compelled to drive where it’s unlikely FSD would be used. And let’s even presume without evidence that is true.

However the premise is flawed.

The vast majority of traffic accidents are not due to driving conditions, but rather are due to driver conditions. Drivers in accidents are usually either drunk, fatigued, or distracted. Drivers in accidents are likely to be inexperienced, or overly aggressive.

This is why the gap is so large (5x safer is an absolutely massive gap). Not because humans can’t be better drivers, but mostly because humans choose not to be better drivers because, frankly, humans make lots of really bad choices.
I think you and I are saying the same thing! What's counter-intuitive about many well-functioning markets is that the vast majority of what happens is superfluous in one sense, but its side effects are desirable by most!
> I really get the feeling you didn't think it through at all....

I said the structure can be discussed. There is no problem giving first number of years free to see if the IP is commercially viable. The aggressive progression (doubling every year) means that literally all IP is in public domain after a couple of decades.
