If that were true, then you would happily trade your American dollars for rubles. Because it just doesn't make sense that they should be valued differently, right?

I agree with you. MS can be a solution to a few problems, and as you mentioned 'do one thing and do it well' is not one of them.

In my head MS works well for
- Teams with different approaches.
- Different tech stacks

I cannot think of another good reason in which MSs would be a better solution than a good monolith (and communication).
>Also, as an aside, it’s amazing to me the lengths to which people will go simply to avoid changing their habits.

That's such a wrong take. Try something more like: isn't it amazing that we're discovering the underlying biological causes of obesity?

I eat a plant based diet (vegan).

Eggs are my 1 exception (although I usually throw away the egg yolk - that's where all of the cholesterol is, and the primary reason for eating vegan for me is to reduce cholesterol consumption). My typical breakfast is 3-4 eggs, with the yolk from only 1. A single egg yolk contains ~70% your daily cholesterol needs. Before going vegan I'd eat a 4 egg omlet with cheese, which would be 250%+ daily cholesterol consumption at breakfast, not including whatever meat I had for lunch/dinner.

Fish, too. I have a few vegan friends, and fish is the 1st food they reintroduce when cycling off the vegan diet.

Remember no one says you can't make exceptions while dieting. For example, the rules I set for myself are pretty simple "when at the grocery store, only buy vegan foods" but "when eating at a restaurant, no limits!" - I find this is the perfect balance for me, and makes going out to eat very much a treat compared to eating at home!

It is quite believable that AI might have a sufficiently detailed understanding of how humans express feelings (via text) that it is capable of emulating such behaviors quite accurately even without experiencing those emotions itself (possibly experiencing some other unrelated and unfathomable emotions in the process of doing so), the same way we humans can understand and model the behavior of other creatures without any emotional involvement (see various mathematical models of swarm behavior etc).

Such sophisticated capabilities (to understand and imitate our behavior to that extent) are clearly beyond those of animals, and animals express emotions even when no humans are present and even when their evolutionary history has not involved interaction with humans, so we can rule out the imitation hypothesis when it comes to animals. Thus, the comparison to AI is fairly nonsensical.
It's kinda mad we used to stare at an X-Ray gun though :) especially the ones in the 80s didn't quite filter all of them out.
Oh good, the climate change denier is here to educate us all.
Nope I don't. I have tiny one bedroom apartment. Still, it's nice to be able to dim the light, watch a movie and later on right before sleep, turn them off without the need to get up. It's very convenient and works well. They're smart enough, but dumb enough to not be annoying.

I often find that the act of getting out of bed and turning the lights of makes it harder to fall asleep.

I am also skeptical to so called smart appliances and lean towards the paranoid.

Hardly my fault if the FDA is one of the most notoriously incompetent safety administrations I've seen in my life. Additionally, approved or not, self-medication is an absurdly stupid thing to do, and most users of it did not go through a doctor for it.
No; the downvoting comes because of the suggestion - which runs counter to much of the evidence at this point - that obesity is caused by "bad habits" rather than have real biological causes that can be treated medically.

If it's meant to transfer momentum to a lightsail, then there is no requirement that the power must be delivered to a single point on the electrical grid. Several of these lasers in a smaller form factor dispersed over a rather large geographic region can all focus on a point in orbit and transfer nearly the same momentum as a single laser focused on that point would.
For interventions that work across populations we need to find things that work for millions of people.

It’s good that you are able to do this. I think that’s a great accomplishment and you should feel proud. The challenge is figuring out how 100 million people can. It’s obviously not easy based on how many people struggle and fail.

The hard part is the switch in attitudes and behavior that is very difficult to initiate and maintain.

Saying “I did it through willpower is easy since I did it” is about as accurate and useful as saying “World peace is easy because the Dalai Lama did it through willpower.”

We can take 1,000 people and test out your method vs. semaglutide and see which one has the bigger impact. I’m willing to bet that the semaglutide group will have a greater change.

it's not about data hoarding, it's just that among those photos are some important ones and the work to sort and throw out the unimportant ones is just to much.

i have backups of social media apps with all photos they ever loaded (because there is no other way to export photos from the app in bulk). that means it is 95% junk. but sorting through that junk is just to much effort. but i am not going to delete it because of those 5%. maybe if i haven't had the need to search for something for more than a decade then i can delete them (but managing old backups is an effort in itself). or i'll find an AI tool that can help me categorize the pictures.

It’s obviously not your fault that the FDA approved a drug.

But it is your fault for saying wrong information.

It’s also not self-medicating as, in the US at least, it must be prescribed by a doctor.
Taking Obsidian and VsCode as examples of the unix/microservices philosophy is very bizarre.

VsCode is in many ways a philosophical successor to Emacs and sits on the opposite end. Yes, it has plugins but it is designed from the top down to work in a particular way, and everything integrates with it. VsCode Extensions don't function on their own, they're not composable tools, they don't expose any agnostic interfaces (except for the LSP). They're designed to work well within the existing ecosystem of VsCode.

It's essentially a lesson in systems thinking. Paraphrasing Russ Ackoff, the complexity of a system is the consequence of the interaction of its parts, not the parts themselves. Microservices and unix tools always ignored this, which is why they fell out of favor. I can split one complex thing into a dozen simple things, but that doesn't make my life easier, because then all the complexity is in glueing them back together. And even worse improving one part doesn't mean you improve the system you care about.

Ackoff always used to give the example of a car. You take the best part of all cars in the world an put them together, you don't have a great car but a pile of junk, the parts don't fit. This is also the issue of unix tooling and microservice architectures, people optimize for the wrong thing.
I'd invite you to keep up on improvements in tooling like analyzer and auto-fixing clippy warnings (tho understanding internals of linters, borrow and type checkers is a full time job and then some)

Use your imagination. Maybe some biological process in genetically engineered humans can sort uranium isotopes more efficiently than a centrifuge. That would make them a net producer of "energy" by a reasonable definition.
That's close to what I do[1]. The size and date comparison is done by rsync, and I keep a text file with all expected file hashes, so if there's any disagreement between copies I know which one to trust.

These hashes are also ordered so that the top files haven't been checked the longest; part of the script is to take the top N files, checksum them, and move them to the bottom of the list. This guarantees every file is checksum once per N days.

I also donwload a random file in every run, to make sure the connection is not broken.

My use case is personal photos and videos, so I also make sure that my local files are never changed.

And finally, I highly recommend Hetzner Storage Boxes. Not only are they dirty cheap while still giving you ZFS and samba access, you can actually SSH into the box and run simple commands on the files locally, like sha25sum, without paying for network transfers.

Both can be true at the same time. On the one hand yes intelligence services attempt to manipulate public opinion at home and broad. On the other, they know that independent reporting in and of oppressive opposing states undermines those states, and so they promote it.
People often think that lowering meat consumption (something we absolutely have to do) means eating bugs.

> No, you try all the programs one by one. Assuming P = NP one of them will work eventually.

You're repeating what I said: you do need to find the program first, and you do that by brute force. What exactly is the disagreement here, do you not know that trying one-by-one is exactly what "brute force" means? Perhaps this theorem is mathematically sound and I am missing something, but as a programmer I can guarantee this solution is completely useless.

Interesting, I was thinking of them for another use as well: dumping surplus photovoltaic/wind collected energy into space as a thermostat of sorts to help control global average temperatures and buy more time to handle CO2 emissions. Not sure but maybe its cheaper than using batteries for time-shifting that energy to reduce fossil fuels during the transitionary period.
Plenty of people spend over $12k a year for things that make them feel better (that they don’t need). It’s called a luxury car.

You can easily tell that’s there’s something wrong with that 3,600 calorie per day number.

3,600 calories per day is the maintenance weight for 350lbs man who exercises 1-3 days per week.

Depending on distributions there’s some wiggle room, but if the average calorie consumption were anywhere near that high you’d expect to be average weight to be about 150 lbs more than it is.

The bulk of Russia's invasion force is comprised by people from remote villages.

You're talking about people who risked their lives, and many died, to pillage washing machines and indoor toilets.

Do you really think the literacy level and access to information from the average Russian grunt on the floor accommodates this info? Many didn't even knew where in the world they were stationed.
Interesting case, I didn't know of that one. Thanks for posting!

> Ironically this is unlike actual laws where ignorance is not an excuse

I think it's similar to real laws.

Unacceptable rules: sneaking in terms such as that your firstborn child will belong to me is not enforceable: nobody could expect or would agree to that. In law, similarly, you can't just upend someone's life for a minor infraction, or indeed take a child in exchange for your use of an ordinary government service. If this were to pass, a court would strike it down based on human rights or constitution, so you'd have to change/disavow those also as a country.

Acceptable rules: sneaking in terms that are fair are enforceable. Your third party client ban is an example where the rule is acceptable, but the consequences deemed disproportionate and so a warning is in order before cutting one off. This is similar to many laws, for example mildly dangerous driving gets you a fine or few days/weeks of driving ban. It takes repeat offences to get banned outright. Failure to pay taxes doesn't result in them showing up to auction your TV off, but they send a nice letter first, even if they'll eventually show up with a writ and after you're been warned that this is the next step, because indeed, we don't expect everyone to know everything.

I'm not a lawyer and can't cite relevant cases or anything, but this is my impression of law as a lay person. It's rarely perfectly fair towards everyone in all situations, and I think we should pay even more heed to "but how was I supposed to know"s whenever a situation is legitimately complex and good intent was shown (to avoid that people avoid doing good things because they don't know what legal risk it puts them in, such as what good samaritan laws are aimed to avoid), but it does try to find balances between what people can reasonably know and follow, at least in northwestern Europe which I'm most familiar with.
Then use LLM and manual review to summarize down to laymen’s terms
> Current driverless cars are not even capable of safely navigating situations that below-average human drivers rarely struggle with, like avoiding driving into clearly marked wet concrete, or not crashing into an emergency vehicle that has its sirens and lights blazing.

Those are both very common accidents for human drivers. It's fine if you want to argue with numbers about whether or not Cruise/Waymo/Tesla are more or less likely to get into these accidents. But please don't spin and claim that people don't do this too. That is simply incorrect and you know it.
That’s certainly not something I would want to do now, but let’s assume there already was only one currency. Would Russia or whatever one country, be able to single-handedly tank the worth of the global currency? I am not an economist, so this is a genuine question.

I use Nightly exclusively. Unless you are somehow installing Nightly updates in a way that the binary is owned by a user who isn't you (ie, owned by root), Nightly will never force you to restart, it just forever has the green dot on the hamburger menu.

This is true for me on both Windows (and my user is part of the Administrator group, thus can write to a global c:\Program Files install) and Linux (and Firefox is installed to a directory in $HOME to simplify the process of non-packaged binary management).

Now, I also have Firefox (stable) installed as a .deb (to fulfill the browser dep). If the .deb gets upgraded by apt, that Firefox suddenly bricks itself until I restart. And this is intentional, btw, given how Firefox interacts with itself to do process isolation.

Everything I say here has been true for roughly the past decade.

Your point is that we shouldn't have self-driving vehicles because... we can't prove they're not racist? I'm not following.

But you don't get to wave that fact as a get-out-of-jail-free card in an argument! You need to show us the edge case. And the best you can do is "the cars might be racist"?
