During the first 5 seconds of reading a publication on batteries I should be able to answer at least 1 or 2 of those questions.

TURTLES AND DEFENSE

The following letter, which was the response to a request for
information about the use of AI hardware for defense purposes,
arrived through the ARPAnet after passing through many different
sites (more than 4). We received permission from the authors to
include it in the newsletter. They said that the time (3:05 AM) was
the actual time the letter was written - Ed.

Dear sir:

We must admit to some initial puzzlement at receipt of your
communique of 6 January regarding possible applications of our
robotics and artificial intelligence products to military functions.
However, always eager to contribute to the defense of our
country from the ever-present threat, we put our best minds right
to work on the problem and put together the enclosed report. We
hope it will aid in your analysis.

Please note that the information we are providing is to be
used only in your analytical studies, and is not to be considered an
official offer by Terrapin to supply the systems at the quoted prices.
Please call us at (617) 492-8816 if you have any questions.

Sincerely yours,

Introduction

At Terrapin, we feel that our two main products, the Terrapin
Turtle®, and the Terrapin Logo Language for the Apple II, bring
together the fields of robotics and AI to provide hours of
entertainment for the whole family. We are sure that an
enlightened application of our products can uniquely impact the
electronic battlefield of the future.

The Terrapin Turtle® is a small, versatile robot that can
perform any number of complex tasks under computer control. A
powerful A1 programming language is necessary to realize the full
potential of this advanced device.

The Terrapin Logo Language, developed at the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology Artificial Intelligence Laboratory's Logo
Group, is ideal for this application. The Logo language is a close
relative of Lisp, the language used most widely in AI research. It
fills the bill quite handily!

Descriptive Information

Munitions

The Terrapin Turtle® does not currently incorporate any
munitions, but even civilian versions have a downward-defense
capability. The Turtle can be programmed to attempt to run over
enemy forces on recognizing them, and by raising and lowering its
pen at about 10 cycles per second, puncture them to death.

Turtles can easily be programmed to push objects in a
preferred direction. Given this capability, one can easily envision a
Turtle discreetly nudging a hand grenade into an enemy camp, and
then accelerating quickly away. With the development of ever
smaller fission devices, it does not seem unlikely that the Turtle
could be used for delivery of tactical nuclear weapons.

House ownership is very different among the European countries.

I think it's somewhat rare in Germany and Austria, but you don't need to be very wealthy to own a house in France or Belgium for example. And you are allowed to install A/C, in fact heat pumps are very much recommended for new builds, almost mandatory even given the tight energy requirements today and it's becoming common enough to use a reversible one.

Both talc and chrysotile (the most frequently encountered asbestos mineral) are hydrated magnesium silicates, which are formed together in various proportions through the alteration by water of certain volcanic rocks that are rich in olivine.

When talc is mined, it is hard to ensure that it is sufficiently pure and not mixed with other minerals that are found together with it, like asbestos.

When very pure talc is desired, it is made artificially, by chemical synthesis, using pure magnesium carbonate and pure silicon dioxide. This is much more expensive than natural mined talc.

Poland. I travelled around Europe and stayed for 1+ month in several places last year before ending up in Poland. Since I have recent first-hand experience with multiple countries I say "Europe" when it applies to what I observed in majority of the countries I visited.

> It was stolen from the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic and 'gifted' to the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic by a man [0] who used to the head of Ukrainian Communist party before becoming the leader of the USSR.

So what you're saying it was transferred from one state to another by the head of that state, under the laws and rules of the state at the time?.

Nothing was stolen, you're just mad of Russias past actions.

"stolen from the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic"

That's quite a frivolous use of the word 'stolen' devoiding it of any meaning besides 'bad!!!!!!!!1'.
If you don't care about it, then pen and paper does seem to be ideal, but smartphones have a major advantage of portability.

For me, every extra object in my life is a source of stress. Something that can be lost, along with all the information, in a list with no cloud sync.

Paper is fine around the house, for non urgent things, that I'll probably remember again next time I actually see the problem I made the list entry about, which is probably a pretty big fraction of the stuff people use lists for. Perhaps I should try a paper list for that one of these days.

But if there's any chance I might want to take something outside.... cloud sync is amazing. It does majorly create a pseudo productivity trap, and a temptation to check a bullshit notification(Made a little more manageable by Keep tiles on a smart watch), and probably is not optimal for getting stuff done.

But it sure is convenient not to have an extra item to carry.
That's 'too hard', and attracts too much attention to themselves.

TODO apps do not work for me unless they are short lived, like shopping list when you go for an errand. If a task stay on a todo list for too long that mean it is just too low priority to be worth staying on the list.

I need to work in short sprints. If a task is on a todo list it must be done in a week and that's it, otherwise if it can't be completed in the week, it needs to be put in a calendar for a few weeks/months later.
There are 3 points at the end of the article which are basically demands, stated but not supported at all. Why should people who refuse to use technology be coddled? Why should we blindly refuse all change?

If they have an actual objection, they should make it. Anything else is just opposition for its own sake.

The points:

>Travellers must not be forced to use digital travel credentials. The possibility of using physical travel documents must be guaranteed permanently and not just for the “near future”, as the European Commission is proposing.

>Travellers who don’t use digital travel credentials must not be discriminated against. This condition includes that border controls for travellers with physical documents must be equally accessible and sufficiently staffed to enable travel checks in a reasonable amount of time.

>Travellers who don’t use digital travel credentials must not, under any circumstances, be affected by the border control technologies required for checking digital travel credentials. Policy options “where all travellers are monitored and their biometric data are processed”, as the European Commission is considering, must be ruled out.
How does that work for multiple editors that aren’t programmers?

But visiting a country is not the same as living, working and paying taxes in one though.
I dispute "slow tools" being always as much of a problem as the article claims. From personal experience, having to wait for a build to finish sometimes makes me get up, and go make a tea or empty dishwasher / hang laundry out, as result feel refreshed and/or subconscious works on a problem. So often I go back to my chair with the solution having come seemingly from nowhere. Only because of the long build time did that happen. ;). A former colleague used to find excuses to have to walk from one office building to another to pick up a cable or something, in order to let his bring solve a problem rather than sit stewing in his chair. So... productivity is complicated. ;)
I'll bet on future WP updates eating whatever perf improvements new hardware will give. Besides, Moore's Law is about the number of transistors. Speed - and especially single threaded speed which is what matters for PHP sites - is not going up nearly as fast anymore.
What genderization, do you mean using 'She' rather than 'He' in the title?

It reads like an pop sci article on David Blair and his work on gravity save for the fact it's about Silke Weinfurtner and her work on black holes.

If you're so easily "concerned" I suggest you don't read about (say) Steph Wehner and her work on quantum cryptography or rooting BSD kernels.
Poland. I travelled around Europe and chose Poland for a mix of personal and quality of life reasons. Whenever I mention Europe I speak about what I observed in majority of places I visited in Europe though.

I agree with your main point, you have to do quite a few things to configure these plugins and some of it is not straightforward.

However, I program rust using the lunarvim default configuration for vim and it has been very straightforward. I have all features I need to program comfortably and I didn't need to configure anything, the defaults were good enough for me.
So that doesn't mean that vim cannot have the same easy of use if there exists some sane default configuration you can just install.

Labor senators. With the 2015 introduction of the Average Staffing Level cap, the shrinking of big government (read: selling off everything that wasn't bolted down) was wild.
This was always part of their platform to reverse that trend and Robodebt/ATO leaks handed them a free kick https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-05-19/promise-check-abolish...
5+ years ago it we trusted them because it was hip to do so. Now we distrust them because it is hip to do so. What we actually need is to based trust on actions and inform ourselves. But that won't happen, we will just keep following trends.
Research also shows that light color theme works better.

> A new underclass of people was formed, living hand to mouth in very precarious conditions.

That underclass already existed, it's just that dirt-poor subsistence farmers spread all over the countryside are much less visible than dirt-poor factory workers in cities. There's a reason why people moved to cities, despite the horrible working conditions

No, I just wanted to suggest that some of the things mentioned in the article may also have other reasons than simply not being able to afford them. I am not in any way in dire straits financially, but I also look at the "reduced price" (due to sell-by date or for other reasons) shelf in the supermarket - not because I can't afford anything else, but in order to have more money for other stuff. And I also try to go more by foot, bicycle or public transportation than using the car - partly because of increased fuel prices, but partly also because it's healthier, better for the environment and I generally arrive at the destination less stressed out than if I take the car. Reality is more complex than the simplistic spin articles like this one try to put on it!

As for "having smaller houses", that's not as much because people are earning less, but because housing prices have exploded recently - that's a real problem that the article completely fails to mention, because it doesn't fit into its narrative (it also happens in the US).
Not sure what you mean. Of course I cannot live and pay taxes in every single European country. All I say is based on limited experiences of visiting multiple countries for 1-3 month long stays and then living and paying taxes in Poland.

After reviewing the Basics Tutorial[0] I have a few reasons I don't like it, but others may:

- It is not purely Flat File based, but rather a specific Folder structure with specifically named and marked up Files in them

- URL Routing is implicit in your folder structure; however

+ URL Routing has some special cases wherein:

a. Folders named starting with digits and a dot (i.e. "04.") will be "ordered"
b. Folders named starting with digits and a dot (i.e. "04.") will be "included in the navigation menu"
c. Folders named starting with digits and a dot (i.e. "04.") will be have the digits and dot removed in the URLs
d. It is unclear what "unordered" pages mean
e. It is unclear how to escape the starting numbers and dot so that they are included, but maybe just doubling "04.04." would work

- Page metadata such as HTML Meta Title and special CSS classes are included in a special header of the Markdown content
- Page template is determined by the actual filename within the URL routed folder rather than in the Page metadata

Personally, I would prefer a simpler "flat file" format that simply mapped folders and files to URLs in a more naive manner.
Metadata being in the page is fine and can totally include the Template that I want to use for that content.
Metadata within a page could also include the "ordering" and "menu" information.

That said, I'd possibly prefer a declarative mapping somewhere of my templates to folder and file patterns and a declarative mapping of my menus to specific files rather than including that data within the content file.

Maybe I should start a side project.

Better pictures. I read the naturalis article and had no real clue what I was looking at.
The rising class consciousness I've seen this year has really warmed my cockles. One thing I've realized is very few people actually know what capitalism is but they sure as hell will defend it.

Capitalism is simply the economic system for the extraction of wealth from the poor to the wealthy where once it was from the poor to the monarch and the artistocratic class (ie feudalism). That's it. Someone will be tempted to pipe up with something about "free markets". Markets are commerce. They happen in every economic system.

So you see a lot of people flounder in this area in a way that is curable with the barest introduction to Marxism, specifically the labor theory of value [1].

So profiteering off government contracts is nothing more than the extraction of wealth from the poor to the rich via the government. Yet you'll find many who say we're simply not doing enough capitalism.

This is also why culture war issues are manufactured: to stop the development of class consciousnes and solidarity. It is an intentional distraction so you won't pay attention to the wealth transfer going on through tax cuts, deregulation and, of course, government contracts.
