How about we stop creating false dichotomies of action, and take multiple paths to solve this existential crisis? I understand you are saying this is a smokescreen by the fossil fuel industry to avoid reducing emissions. You're probably right! But that doesn't mean this isn't a valuable and perhaps necessary complement to reducing emissions as well, and frankly if the fossil fuel industry can sequester enough carbon to offset their emissions then so be it (note: this won't happen).

More likely, I see this as a way to mitigate some of the past damage as we continue reducing our emissions with renewables. Ultimately we need to go net negative, and at the moment these marginal investments in the technology are worth exploring in my opinion.
I've been tempted a few times, especially by the fast (efficient) heat up times. But I have a bunch of 58mm tampers, dosing funnels, etc, so the 54mm portalfilter is a bit offputting!
Very simplistic. Any article like this needs to be far more nuanced.

I feel for "Unreliable Anna". Her mother is actually in hospital so she's stressed but trying to put a brave face on things. Her dickhead manager hasn't bothered to ask about her situation and is instead putting her through for a formal warning.

Meanwhile the whole team find Lone Wolf Lisa toxic as she undoes other people's work and should be shown the door since she's clearly not a good fit and this isn't the first time. Her team can't understand why she's kept around so get demotivated.

I just read Outlive by Peter Attia and Bill Gifford [0] and liked it for how it made me think about fitness as part of life into old age and not just a specific thing to do in order to accomplish something (run a race, climb a mountain, etc). So I’ve incorporated some shifts in training to prepare for the “Centenarian Olympics.”

Kind of long and seems like a book just as a focal point but give Attia a break because he has hundreds (thousands?) of hours of podcasts and blog posts as well.

Although it must be nice to do the expensive tests his clients do, the book did give me some affordable tests that I ran to identify additional cholesterol labs beyond what my doc normally runs (Lpa and ApoB) and that was an immediate help. Also while I won’t pay for a proper VO2Max test, I do pay more attention to my watches estimation.

'many people' - less than a third of germans live in big cities. The vast majority of adults have licenses, almost all from the stats I see.
> In my youth, I used to engage and try to retort about how brutal violence is also a more natural state.

Would you consider it fair to describe violence as a 'default' state? To avoid a positive prejudice whilst also describing the higher frequency of violence in history and in toddlers.

> And I don’t think there’s really any evidence that polygamy is a “natural state” only that some cultures practiced it and some didn’t.

Through the lens of 'default state' - was there any civilisation pre 2500 BC that didn't practice polygamy? My understanding is that the prohibition of polygamy spread through the Greco-Roman tradition, but I'd be interested in finding out whether the prohibition occurred elsewhere or earlier too.
In that segment, Flair is the right answer. It’s simple, durable and capable of delivering 100% real espresso, on par with high end machines. It’s also not weird, you can actually use it every day and prep the drink in just a few minutes.

Also note that Flair 58 is compatible with regular-sized generic espresso accessories.

One of my biggest disappointments from Jacinda Ardern is that she hosted a referendum on legalisation, lost it 48/52, then instead of taking that as a mandate to at least decriminalise or whatever she did nothing.
There are a number of things that overlap here: the number of layers on circuit boards was still quite limited if you wanted the board to be affordable (2 layer boards were (back then...) 5x as cheap as 4 layer boards and 4 layers boards were 5x as cheap as 6 layer ones). There is the cost of the package itself and there is the cost of all of the infra around packaging and testing the die, the surface area of the chip die goes up with the square of the sides but the area available for interconnects only goes up with a factor of 4 unless you want to stagger your connecting pad. But that would complicate wire bonding.

Chip packaging has come a very long way from the days when a 40 pin DIP was considered a large chip. Kens (righto.com) has a series of articles about classic chips that show what high density designs looked like in those days and you can clearly see how the limits of packaging play into the designs of the dies themselves.

A 64 pin package that would not occupy a very large amount of board area (this is well before SMD became commonplace) would use all kinds of tricks such as staggered legs (sometimes up to three rows) and really tiny traces to be able to keep the costs down.

This is a fascinating bit of tech history and the fact that the packaging kept pace with Moore's law is maybe not quite as impressive as what was happening on the inside of the package but it was a major achievement and an enabler in and off itself.
You will be conditioned and the "ego" that is conditioned becomes vulnerable and biased in a particular direction. It's like a downward spiralling loop either if you are positive or negative there is no winner(but always a controller) and that controller never you, you will be a follower a subscriber or as I said first a slave(perhaps a little harsh)

You you will also become involuntary subscriber to all kinds of misleading ideas and concepts that you automatically accept because you accepted the first root idea and these concepts will only hold One back. The One has become two, split, half no longer whole(holy) being.

What is our real nature then? Its not having an intelectual standing at all completely free, carefree, no attachment to any idea, neutral, some would call this innocence.

Computer Networking: a Top Down approach by James Kurose and Keith Ross.

Computer Networking - a Top Down approach is a technical book, but oh boy what an awesome read it is. I've just recently obtained a BSc degree in Computer Science, and the course curriculum didn't paid much attention to computer networks. We mostly studied cryptography algos, but not really looked into networks protocols and such.

This book is hence filling the gaps I have in computer networks (I'm mostly interested in web dev/cloud architectures).

The only other technical book that comes close to it is "Operation Systems: three easy pieces" by Remzi and Andrea Arpaci-Dusseau. Another great read.

Now, in terms of fictions books, I just finished re-reading "The Shadow of the Wind" by Carlos Ruiz Zafón. It's a masterpiece, but I'm not sure if the author is widely known in english speaking countries.
I have a new pair of scissors ready for that moment.
I'm writing an NNTP server in Go. It's something I do when I have a spare hour or two in the evening - which is why I've been at it for 3 years when a decent Go coder, not me, could bang it out in 3 weeks. I'm doing it from the RFCs and hope to make it a full spec server not a toy one. Intending to put it on Github when done but wouldn't dare let anyone see it now as it is comically bad and incomplete.

The scoring function is wrong, checking for white is not as simple as calling contains.

if guess[i] == secret_code[i]:
red += 1
else:
if guess[i] in secret_code:
white += 1

With the secret XXXY a guess of YYYY will be scored as one red and three white but it should be just one red. You have to keep track of which positions in the secret have already been consumed, in this case the Y in the secret gets consumed by the Y in the same position in the guess yielding the one red, for the guess YYYX the Y in the secret will be consumed by the first Y in the guess yielding only one white instead of three. Plus of course a second white for the X. When implementing this, one has to be careful that a white does not consume a later red if one wants to do it in a single loop, i.e. it is not good enough to look for any unconsumed match, it must be unconsumed and also not yield a red.

Problem is getting any kind of SEO success. The site is functional and designed to be as easy to use as possible, what it doesn't have are any articles, blogs, ads, pricing, or distractions (other than multiple casino-related themes, for a little bit of flair). What's good for users (I hope) seems to suppress any presence in search engines, however.

Nothing wrong with humor, but on a completely personal level, it does frustrate me when the top comment is entirely superficial, since it adds nothing to the conversation.

FlowStorm: Omniscient time travel debugging for Clojure
>> This is only looking at PhD recipients, not all grad students.

> Which was my original claim?

But the subject is grad student salaries, and grad students by definition do not yet have a PhD, or else they wouldn't be students anymore and wouldn't get grad student salaries.

>> Not to mention that in general, STEM grad students tend to be vastly better funded in school than humanities grad students

> Which is my precise point? And irrelevant to lethe familial background of PhDs

I don't understand how you can now say familial background is irrelevant when you're the very one who attempted to make it relevant? Your argument seemed to be that "any efforts to raise salaries should be careful to ensure that salary money isn't simply being redirected from STEM PhDs to humanities PhDs" because "most humanities PhDs typically come from more affluent backgrounds than STEM PhDs".

The Knuth approach said to be implemented in this post is described in:

> The computer as Master Mind. Journal of Recreational Mathematics 9 (1976), pp. 1–6. Reprinted with an addendum as Chapter 25 of Selected Papers on Fun and Games.

https://www.cs.uni.edu/~wallingf/teaching/cs3530/resources/k... is the original paper, but the addendum in the 2011 book is 5 pages long, longer than the original article itself (not counting its figure/table), and discusses various later results/ideas. For example, the addendum mentions that while Knuth's approach only minimizes the worst-case number of guesses (5, with 4.4753 on average), we can try to also minimize the expected number of guesses: I don't want to quote at length, but see https://stackoverflow.com/a/54917672 and the discussion on the German Wikipedia https://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mastermind_(Spiel....

In this post however, it looks like

• the scoring function is wrong, as pointed out in comment here by danbruc,

• the code in the post simply guesses at random ("It only randomly selects its next guess from a pool of possible remaining guessing"), while Knuth's approach is of "choosing at every stage a test pattern that minimizes the maximum number of remaining possibilities over all conceivable responses by the codemaker". (In fact if you run the program in the post, it takes 6 guesses to win!)

In this case, there are two wrinkles in the story that make it not representative of the average situation:

* COVID created an extremely unusual circumstance around residency law, one that we are not likely to see again in our lifetimes pending another virulent pandemic

* The house (unless I misunderstood a detail of your story) wasn't stolen from its rightful owner... The rightful owner died. It's flow through the probate process was disrupted. But people have all kinds of opinions about how we will property in this country and you can definitely turn your head and squint and say "The only crime committed here is a dead woman's will was not respected, and a living person other than the one she would have chosen ended up with the house."

Still, it does suck that the house went up to auction because fundamentally the people with the most claim to it can no longer afford to pay the state to maintain the right to that claim.

I was enjoying Dune and I got through the sequel which was ok, but I'm not really getting on with the 3rd book (children on dune) I've only managed to get through a few pages. I think all of these books are reasonably slow going from my perspective but I can't quite put my finger on it.

The site would definitely need a rework based on the input from someone totally unfamiliar with the project.

I cannot know from the opening page, what coffee machines the mod is for, but I can see that an STM32 or an arduino nano and some other parts would be needed.

Not really informative, no pictures on the opening page to show something like before/after, to showcase the benefits, etc.

Yet there is a rickroll...

This is not really sympathetic, but yeah, I can see the begging icon (support paying for a professional technical writer)... but this is also really backwards in my opinion. First you should sell the project to me, then ask for donation.

While the engineering contents might be great, the presentation is very low quality, to put it politely.
>Great reminder what materials science can do to some underlying economics.

I had a similar experience when reading up on the history of gyroscopes recently. Its absolutely amazing to watch the advances and miniaturization from mechanical to optical to now micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS). Watching the giant machines from the space race first shrink, then get replaced by light traveling fiber optics to now vibrating bits of silicone. With the prices imploding as a result.

Still havent fully grasped the implications of older lithography systems being now usable for electro, mechanical and optical applications. Especially as they seem to be quite affordable, especially with multi-project wafers. With open source project even getting chips for free via google.
I love my DF64. I found it on sale, and informed my wife that it'd be her Christmas and birthday present to me: totally worth it. Even with a $100 DeLonghi EC155, the difference from the grinder is incredible.
Leetcode interviews are a zero interest rate phenomenon.
That is a massive oversimplification. There are a huge number of variables that have a very noticeable impact on the coffee. Pressure (over time), temperature (over time), flow rate, composition of the water, puck resistance (and change over time), many ways to change how the water extracts from the puck, pre-infusion time (and temp. and pressure...). This is just the machine side, ignoring beans, grinding, distribution and tamping.

And the effect of a single one of those variables can be the difference between a god shot and something that tastes rather off. I am not saying you need a machine that allows you to control all of this to get good shots, but the effect on the result is still there. Something like a Decent DE1 can actually control a lot of this, a lever machine actually allows a lot of control as well. 100$ pump machine to an expensive espresso machine is a huge difference in many regards. Consistency being probably the biggest one.

So no, I do not thing your assessment on complexity of espresso making is an accurate representation. I concede however, that if you know what you are doing, good espresso can be had on cheap-ish machines, it's just much harder and less consistent.

> o Do they ask questions?

I find I get 90% of the insight from simple questions like "write a function to shuffle a deck of cards. Don't worry about simple typos like forgetting a semicolon."

You learn a lot from how they set things up (make a suit class, and a vector of card classes? Or just use the integers 1-52?) and talking about that. Do they think about the problem (and, as you say, ask a couple of "requirement" questions) before diving in?

One of the best hires I remember was someone who got this problem wrong (went to a lot of work to leave the deck unshuffled). We gently asked if it did what was required. Hi smacked himself on the forehead and said, "I'm a fucking idiot" (in front of us in his interview!) and quickly corrected the bug. Great guy.
Poland is not right next to Romania on any current maps that I have found.

Poland is bordered by Lithuania and Russia to the northeast, Belarus and Ukraine to the east, Slovakia and the Czech Republic to the south, and Germany to the west.

Romania does border Ukraine, however if you were to travel from Ukraine to Romania the best route is actually through Slovakia and Hungary.

My thesis:

Sometimes some of the developers who "get shit done" and ship on time are the most destructive of all. Creating huge inefficiency savings for relatively modest savings in the short term.

Spending an extra day thinking about the system you're writing when you know it's going to take weeks, before you write it, costs you a small %. The inevitable rewrite could take weeks.

90% of my time as a developer is unfucking previous kludges and weak designs
I installed PowerShell on Linux on ChromeOS, and I was immediately disappointed. I have a limited use case where I need to validate very basic Windows scripts. It turns out that PowerShell scripts aren't... portable?! Some very basic Windows cmdlets were rejected from the Linux version. I don't know the details of that, but I was extremely discouraged. Waaaaaay easier to install Git-Bash on Windows.
> Suggesting that emergency brakes are inadequate due to one passenger failing to locate one is kinda cheap.

That’s not what I wanted to say at all - the op talked about the willingness to pull the emergency brake, but my understanding is that he was willing to but due to human error failed to find it. I didn’t mean to suggest in any way that emergency brakes are not important.
