There's a big difference between fuel and water.

When that 5 gallons of fuel is used to produce 1 gallon of soybean oil the fuel is consumed. It undergoes a chemical transformation that results in it becoming non-fuel.

When 1 gallon of water is used to grow 1 almond, only a very tiny amount of the water undergoes a chemical transformation into non-water. The rest (over 99.9% of it) remains as water at the almond farm.

It is no longer in easily accessible pipes or storage tanks, instead becoming water vapor in the air or moisture in the soil, but it is still water. It is going to end up eventually in someplace where it will be usable.
Nah, variability also increases, so we'll probably (each, locally) have some extremely cool July years, perhaps followed by record hot Augusts.

Now, Im not saying it is a superconductor. But please, don't insult my intelligence with garbage like that, I'm more inclined to believe that kind of reporting is evidence that serious scientists are not willing to go on record as saying it isn't.
>I get tired of the same story being repeated,

But "Link, the hero of time saves Zelda from Ganon, the great evil" is the whole point of the story in the Zelda games, that these three fates are intertwined for eternity and meant to constantly dance their dance.

>I like how with Batman and Joker movies different directors/actors have a different take on the characters or setting

Zelda does this massively, there's multiple interpretations of these characters because they are different living beings in the same lineage or whatever. Consider the toon games, where "Zelda" is a pirate girl with zero "Royal" character attributes.

I don't know what you are expecting or asking for. Hell, BoTW is ALSO another re-interpretation of the story and characters

yeah, I grown immune to media's "this thing is secretly killing you! and we dont know much about it!"

True, but the thing is that it wasn't really "complicated" CSS we used, but simply a good grasp on the fundamental of CSS, which is a overlooked part of web development.

I believe it's mostly due to the fact that CSS, just like SQL, is one of those technology approachable enough to fiddle with it and get somewhat far, while not really learning it, and thus overlooking the fundamentals.

> None of the frameworks I know of do that.

I would squarely put into this category all the CSS-in-JS frameworks, such as 'styled components'. Also everything that markets the 'cascading' part of CSS as being a mistake.

Also, all the frameworks that compiles CSS without generating the CSS sourcemaps, making the debugging experience way less efficient since all the applied CSS rules shows under '<style>' (eg: 'styled-components' again, who discarded it as being 'cosmetic' in the related Github issue).

`> Please illuminate me: what have I said that has been debunked?

The fact that they invaded Georgia, during Xi's Olympics no less and did it again in Ukraine during the Winter Olympics, after the West capitulated and the 'separatist' argument was used to justify this abomination [0].

The same was done in '14, and then in '22 to justify it's illegal annexations and war; nothing Russia has done in good faith and their pretext for war is something akin to 17th Century 'well I want it' decree from a monarch, which is what Putin has made himself to be in Russia looting from it's people and then killing them in senseless wars.

People seem to forget that a lot of Ukrainians are actually part Russian, and it's not only the Russian speaking parts either (though now no one will will speak it after this atrocity) which is what makes this genocidal mess even more absurd.

Your Pravda speaking points are like that of the Russian propaganda you'd see on TV that make Russia seem like the victim, when in fact the West was completely fine with Ukraine sliding into insolvency fighting Russia on the East while the EU got cheap gas/oil. It's really messed up, but Purin's inept geopolitical blunder is what made the West unify and finally step up and commit to actually doing something after neglecting the Budapest memorandum.

I cannot say for sure why you are doing this, but it's clear you are either exposed or entirely believe this BS propaganda; this senseless war ends tonight if Russia leaves Ukraine.

They won't, they are far too deep and want the Donbas even if they leave it a smouldering heap like Bauchmut; but if it's true that Wagner troops are returning back to Russia from Belarus after the Kremlin stiffed them on their pay they likely have another coup in their midst, and this is in addition to troops being sent to the front line with no training or equipment pay etc... That is more likely to end the war in my view, it just leaves a horrible power vacum not unlike that of Gadahffi's Libya, or Hussein's Iraq and always leads to chaos.

Honestly, this will be seen by posterity as a 'how to f-up your natural resource rich Nation' 101 by Vladamir Putin; it should be mandatory reading and taught in all schools because this kind of BS shouldn't be tolerated in the 21st Century. It's sad Russians are so easily placated by propaganda into utter apathy--the calls from these people's relatives held as POW is spine chilling, the jaded side of me lets me think it is so bleak that it makes dying in a pointless war almost sensible alternative from their lives in Russia from their perspective.

I disagree with the equivalence between "you don't want any manager" and "you want to hide your work".

I don't want to hide my work, I just think the reason most of our managers are non-managers is because the team can manage itself. We can produce the same reports the manager can, after all we tell him what to put in them. The manager is often an unnecessary layer.
What does your IDE/workflow look like that you avoid this?

According to GR, time stops at the event horizon. It would take infinite time to cross the event horizon.

Everything past the event horizon is speculative.
It turns out that customers would rather not spend extra time getting measured and then waiting for garments to be custom-made, so instead we'll ship large quantities of pre-made generic clothing in every possible size to a store in a shopping mall and then let them drive there, park, try on, buy the ones they like best (or move on to the next store), and drive home. We generate a ridiculous amount of garbage with all of the packaging and unsold inventory and the cheaply-made clothes that get worn out and discarded more frequently, and we burn a whole lot of fossil fuels shipping those products from factories to warehouses to shopping malls and making people drive to those malls, park, drive home, we take work away from tailors and seamstresses and homemakers, and people waste time and money in the process...

Not saying you're entirely wrong, but it's interesting to see how quickly the "new thing" becomes the "old thing" that's getting disrupted.

Multiple Google Cloud services in the europe-west9 region are impacted.

'Water intrusion in a data center in europe-west9 caused a multi-cluster failure that led to a shutdown of multiple zones. We expect some unavailability in the europe-west9 region. There is no current ETA for full recovery of operations in the europe-west9 region at this time. We expected to see an extended outage for some services. Customers are advised to failover to other regions if they are impacted.'

can you please explain to me how water intrusion in a data center cause a region failure? there is only one reason. they lied. most likely overhyping the region resiliency. how after seing that can you trust them to host critical apps is beyond belief.

and if you look the resolution link I shared they kept hiding reality behind fuzzy language.

'After Regional Spanner, IAM and GCE/PD came back online for the region, almost all of the services in the region fully recovered soon after that. The following services either took longer to recover or had additional impact during the outage.

Google Cloud Storage, Google BigQuery, Cloud Bigtable, Cloud SQL, Cloud Pub/Sub, Google Cloud Dataflow
Please log a case with our Support team if you would like to receive additional information regarding these services.'

please look the last sentence and I can tell you it was way more than a day for those services.
try to get additional info on how long bigquery/bigtable were offline.
What Is a Traction Inverter?
If you want a very specific thing, which is to ban gay marriage, then you can't demand to put it under some broad term or be called some softer term as distraction. Otherwise you're just self-censoring because there is no point in arguing semantics.

If merely your own preference were "heterosexuality, family-oriented and religious" without interfering in other's lives, then of course "homophobic" would not apply and nobody would call you that.

> what do you think a person who is "just" socially conservative believes in.

"Conservative" can mean many things, I admit that especially in the US it can mean opposing homosexual marriage. But the article was speaking in global terms ("every functioning civilization for all of human history"), and in that context it can mean many even more many different things.

All in all I find this game of "secretly being homophobic" pathetic, and that you would quote "That’s Not Happening and It’s Good That It Is" is extremely ironic. Just be straight with it and say that you hate gays, or that certain people are lesser people or whatever you think. You're gonna get in trouble anyway. Or is it worth the trouble to hate people? Good luck.
I’ve messed around with tailwind a bit now, and honestly I could never use it in even a moderately complex site without some sort of “component” framework.

I think you’re talking about just serving a .html file for every page in a site right? Having all of your styles duplicated everywhere would be much more confusing than writing CSS (and having to invent one name per groups of common things.)

IMO it’s only viable if you can create your own components. Which you will also have to give a name.

It's hard to imagine that shipping alfalfa across the Pacific makes economic sense -- perhaps only to fill otherwise empty container ships? Subsidizing water for this is crazy, but it's also driven by the desire of China to avoid depending on the U.S. for food.

So crazy, sure, but WHY do we have this kind of crazy?

Yes, agri-business lobbyists are more concentrated than consumer (i.e. have lower coordination costs and higher stakes), but that's not the main reason.

Democracies that geographically distribute representation are subject to hostaging, so e.g., every district has defense spending, midwestern states get ethanol mandates and California's central valley gets decades of bullet train investment, and water allocation is majorly messed up.

That's essentially the picture of politics in the US today, and it has less to do with capitalism than with how we agreed to agree (though none of us actually agreed to that).

The only thing moderating that tendency is when national political party discipline overrides local -- in war (before, during, and after), or in periods of ideological fervor. Not a solution.

So the real question is: why can we make exponential progress in teraflop systems, but not moderately rational governance?
Is this how Tailwind is supposed to work? I've never used it, but this sounds awful. How do you keep styles consistent across different areas of a website? Do you manually write matching styles into HTML every time you need them?
depends a lot on what your backend gives you

i agree it can spiral out of control if you try to do too much, e.g. a routes file that is just incomprehensible

i often end up reusing the same controller method to handle a few related routes, using pattern matching in the route declaration

i think also picking your battles and not getting too fiddly with screens that don't matter so much also helps a lot here

If you need framework-specific solutions to do SSR for web components... they are no better than existing solutions without them.

Lit solution also lists a lot of caveats including things like "only Lit elements using Shadow DOM can be SSR'ed" and "element registry needs to be solve for interop with other custom elements" (that is, there's an issue on the standards level)
> but the excitement and amount of replication on this paper was pretty fun to witness and experience.

I was really elated to see how people were so interested and getting to see what peer review in science actually looks like. How in the real world it is done outside of journals and conferences, which people frequently give the misnomer "peer review." I hope people will walk away from this experience with a better understanding of how science works and why replication is such a critical aspect of it. Because the truth is that our academic incentive structure has generally fallen out of alignment with the actual goals of science.

My immediate thought is that the ethical concerns with facial recognition in policing are orthogonal to the "kind" of AI involved. Clearly, our industry has moved to other techniques and my guess is because they're more capable. And so it comes down to regulating and adding accountability for the applications of the technology.

It is resistant to that sort of manipulation. The algorithm looks at users' voting history to see how often their voting is accurate and vice versa (i.e. if they vote something is helpful, does or tend to ultimately get marked as helpful?). The algorithm also looks at how one-sided a note is. The more a note is voted helpful by those who've disagreed in the past, the more likely it will have the helpful status.
Sometimes the spring way is also just ugly, or confusing if you just want to do thing X.
This code here is used for making HTTP requests using OAuth2. There are probably other ways to do it but I've seen this code in more than one place. I speculate that most people didn't knew they had to use a "AuthorizedClientServiceOAuth2AuthorizedClientManager", but rather found an implementation online and copied it.

But as you pointed out, since there are established spring ways to do something, it doen't matter if it's ugly since it actually "just works".

```

@Bean

public AuthorizedClientServiceOAuth2AuthorizedClientManager authorizedClientServiceAndManager (

ClientRegistrationRepository
clientRegistrationRepository,
OAuth2AuthorizedClientService authorizedClientService) {

OAuth2AuthorizedClientProvider authorizedClientProvider =
OAuth2AuthorizedClientProviderBuilder.builder()
.clientCredentials()
.build();

AuthorizedClientServiceOAuth2AuthorizedClientManager authorizedClientManager =
new AuthorizedClientServiceOAuth2AuthorizedClientManager(
clientRegistrationRepository, authorizedClientService);
authorizedClientManager.setAuthorizedClientProvider(authorizedClientProvider);

return authorizedClientManager;

}

That seems to be “eccentric” not “eccentricity” (your failure to cite the source of the quoted definition makes it harder to tell, but it is almost verbatim the M-W definition of “eccentric”.)

(Eccentricity, the noun used, is just fine with “the British” if onenis referring to the collective manner in which they are eccentric, the plural “eccentricities” would be appropriate if one was referring to the diversity of particular manners in which they were eccentric.)
This only proves that you shouldn't believe such random 'breakthroughs' on the internet, these days.

> In "Europe" (I'm super generalizing here), to return a product, it has to be in pristine condition, you have to the original receipt and even then they will go over it like you are smuggling drugs into the country. In US, nobody cares. This is built into the business model. You pay higher prices due to returns, but then you buy more stuff because you don't worry about returns.

Sounds about like the experience of trying to return anything to a Marshall's store in the US. I tried it once. I was attempting to return a defective water bottle (the seal on the top leaked). They say it has to be in the original packaging and unused. Well, how in the actual fuck am I supposed to determine if the seal is defective or not without "using" it?

Several governments have made 100% EV by 203X a goal. Norway is farther along the path than the US. Predicting the future is always hard, but it is looking like EVs will be more like 80% of sales by 2030 many people are already seeing significant fuel savings, which is important.
I don't think it should be surprising that there are groups of people everywhere who want to skew data one way or another. But the thing I keep coming back to WRT climate change is that the climate in my area is currently killing trees that were totally fine for 40, 50, 60, 70 or 80 years until the last 2 or 3 years. I find that pretty convincing evidence that something is wrong, and working backwards from that through the idea that carbon dioxide blocks thermal radiation and that the temperature is increasing, it's pretty convincing to me that increasing the amount of carbon dioxide as much as we have has had a pretty substantial effect on the stable temperature of the planet. I would expect the temeperature to go up as a result of our actions. So in my opinion the only argument is about the degrees, and currently I'm seeing very convincing evidence that the IPCC is wrong, but that it was too conservative in its prediction, and that's very alarming to me as a person who has to live here for the next 40 or 50 years.
a superconductor at 100+ degrees celsius and ambient pressures doesn't exist as of now. anything even approaching that would be earth shattering. Even if they are ceramic.

You’re right; the money is meant to make people think twice about the purchase. Like many people in the article, I would buy whatever with the intent of just returning whatever I didn’t need.

Allowing law-abiding citizens to have guns to defend themselves against crimes that the government refuses to prevent, yes.
