Surge pricing seems like an effective way at getting end users to reduce their usage when needed.

If you have a fixed pricing, even in times of extreme demand, I’m still going to crank my aircon to the max, run my gaming PC, start the washing machine, etc. I have no incentive to change my usage based on network load.

Meanwhile if pricing is dynamic, I’ll time my appliances to run at peak renewables times when power is plentiful, I’ll chose to reduce my heating and cooling when it’s not.

The alternatives are rolling blackouts, and those iot thermostats that block you from using your air con when the power companies say.

This is survivor bias; SS keeps some beginners engaged but there's no count of those who drop off or never start it. I was in the latter group; it was the first program recommended to me, but I was leery of it because I don't have medical insurance and was skeptical about the feasibility of the suggestions based on what I knew about my own body, so I just did nothing about it. When I did start lifting, I started out with light weights and spent months figuring out a program while getting a kinetic understanding of the different muscle groups and how they worked together, spamming volume for a while and gradually adding more weight.

I don't mean that SS is a bad program, it works for lots of people and it's very accessible. But I also think it's way oversold and not magic.
From what i've understood reading about the rebrand - broad strokes - he wants "X" to be an all in one portal to future internet experiences like metaverse/AI/crypto.

Kinda like metaverse stuff at Meta but instead of being a separate thing from the successful base product just rebrand the base product so people expect it to be more.

It sorta makes sense but could also be some kinda ego move idk anymore.
All that high value Instagram scrolling.

I bet the internet could be still highly useful without all r the surveillance capitalism and use 0.5 or less emissions.
Same. Can't even squat my own body weight without my knees wanting to explode.

I do think weight training is important, but with physical limitations...

Exactly

Yes, the storage capacity is also an issue.

I don't know where you were going, but when you say "it's easy to scale renewables" and then say "oh, but the sun is below horizon and inadequate storage capacity", it's clear that it's not that easy to scale renewables.

As for what goes into separate elements and what goes into attributes: a typical answer to this is that simple types (as per XSL) go into attributes, complex types go into elements.

Compare this to JSON's screwed-up definition of "hash-tables" (the things in curly braces) which doesn't require that "keys" be unique.

> Occam's razor is not an embargo against the positing of any kind of entity, or a recommendation of the simplest theory come what may. Occam's razor is used to adjudicate between theories that have already passed "theoretical scrutiny" tests and are equally well-supported by evidence.

Just FYI (from wikipedia).
Arguments there are bullshit - talking about stuff that's completely irrelevant to beginners to make things sound complicated - personal fitness trainer playbook.

If you're a couch potato dev who sits all day and does no physical activity - just doing random shit with your bodyweight or empty bar will get you sore for the first month.

Overloading yourself with pointless movements that are meant to target specific muscle groups is completely irrelevant for the first year. Go to gym - find heavy stuff you can pick up - try not to do anything stupid.

SS is great because it has a low number of movements, volume is irrelevant when you get sore from a barbell squat, learning how to lift is deceptively complicated (breathing/bracing/muscle activation).

The article keeps straw-manning "longterm" this and that - SS is your first year in the gym (or less). By the time you're trough with it, unless you're totally oblivious, you'll pick up on other stuff when you have the time. And you'll have a decent intuition of how to lift, understand recovery implications, consistency in training, and a decent base strength. It's a great base to get you started and have an achievable progression framework that doesn't require much tutoring or time.

I've seen plenty of people get from 0 to nice lifting strength in ~1 year by doing SS. The only thing that's relevant is consistency - if you come in 2-3x a week and do something difficult for an hour for a year - you will see results - it can be total fucking around - you will still get results. It's good to start with SS type exercises because those well defined movements target your entire body, and if you learn to execute them correctly you reduce your chance of injury.

TL;DR - for any newbie out there that's in bad shape and looking to start gym - save yourself time and avoid "optimal muscle development" crowd. None of those arguments apply to you and are completely irrelevant. Don't trust me ? Go to the gym and do 5x5 with an empty bar and see if you're sore after the workout.

We're surprisingly un-individualistic when it comes down to sea defense. This shows in things like the elections for the part of government that does water management and dyke maintenance: all the parties agree on pretty much everything.

I feel like we've got more trust in the government than people in the USA do too. I fully expect that if the dykes do break the government has a rescue plan in place and a playbook on the shelf ready to get dusted off.

Bankruptcy is not the same as going out of business. They restructured and still produce color film and slide film, but not Kodachrome. It was a very sophisticated film which could only be processed in a specialized lab and they couldn't stay open with low film demand.

For those downvoting:

Right now, as I write this, in Germany:

- Wind: 66.5 GW installed capacity. Generation: 1.82 GW, or 2.74% of that

- Solar: 69.1 GW of installed capacity. Generation: 0.38 GW, or 0.55% of that

- Hydro: 9.78 GW of installed capacity. Generation: 3.09 GW, or 31% of that

So Germany is busy burning gas (generation: 7.6 GW), coal (generation: 14.2 GW), and "bio fuels" (generation: 5 GW), and importing electricity from as far away as Norway
In theory you're right, in practice however the details of the JVM instruction set and the existing generics system throws wrenches into it.

The JVM has instructions like iload, aload, dload,etc (integer, reference, double) to load values from stack slots, the simple instructions were probably chosen to support direct HW execution that was attempted for various embedded Java scenarios. They were unwilling to extend the instruction set back in the day when generics were introduced due to these type specific instructions and they just decided that everything generic could be an object.

The CLR(.NET/C#) equivalent of iload,aload,etc is ldloc , a single instruction whose type depends on the stack slot, generic classes "just" need to specialize the type of slots,etc to have a specialized class, be it a primitive, reference or value.

What they're doing now according to the article is to make aload and the a- family of instructions behave more like the CLR counterparts by adding slot flags, analysis and optimizations to detect "value-cases", so List<int> would be List<Integer(notnull)> and then optimized back down to List<int>.

It's basically a hack upon the hack because they want to preserve backwards compat to the previous hack. If they can get the engineering sorted then sure, I'm mostly glad I won't have to maintain any code related to all this machinery.

And I'm quite curious about how the JVM-lang ecosystem feels about this, maybe they're open to it if it solves backwards compat under the hood for them also, but I wouldn't be surprised if we're going to see pre-JVM 25 versions in addition to post JVM 25 versions of JVM langs in some cases.
Yeah, the article seems to clarify this:

---

'Many of the people who have reported extremely high charges are customers of a small company that provides electricity at wholesale prices.. The model can be risky. Last week, foreseeing a huge jump in wholesale prices, the company encouraged all of its 29,000 customers to switch to another provider when the storm arrived. But many were unable to do so.'

---

So a fraction of 29,000 people in a state of 30 million. Things like this are such a shame because being able to buy electric wholesale would be such a luxury. You could pay rock bottom prices 99% of the time, but of course it'd come with the responsibility that you need to be able to handle those 1% events without just relying entirely on your electric. And the natural/reactionary outcome of stuff like this is the government will simply completely prohibit people of insufficient means from being able to sign up for spot priced electric contracts, and the gap just gets even wider.
but thermal collectors are a lot cheaper than heat pumps, thats also important to consider
If it's really better how come virtually nobody on the planet actually buys electricity that way on the consumer level and people who aren't Texans manage to keep the lights on?

Try using UTF-8 encoding for XML, and your problems with zero byte encoding will go away.

Your understanding of "easier" is oversimplified to the point that it's wrong. It's easier to do the wrong thing in JSON, it's harder to do the right thing in JSON (compared to XML).

JSON is a poorly thought-out format. It's problems become progressively more difficult to deal with the more you expect of your program.
“Resnik- Halliday” and “IE Irodov” the two books changed physics for me. One simplified physics for everyday and made it relatable and one showed me how to think about solving physics problems.

That goes away once the muscles gain strength.

I've had a personal trainer for years now and in my early 40s I can squat merrily with no pain. Also my neck and back pain have vanished, along with headaches I used to get that would start around the back of my neck and move over my head.

Strength training really is amazing. My only regret is 20 years as an adult not doing it.

My wife taking every excuse to touch my leg muscles is just an added bonus!

It simply isn't. Just look at how Linux works. Combining tools over agreed upon interfaces. If you want to replace one tool with another, you don't need to change every other tool and have knowledge of every other problem domain. What you're suggesting is replacing everything, which makes no sense and it's not how anybody does anything in the real world.
Linux 6.5-Rc7 Released: Stable Linux 6.5 Expected Next Week
The AMD 2900 family is not intended for low IC count designs.

They didn't come out until 1975, the Intel 8080 and Motorola 6800 were well established on the market by then, the MOS 6502 had just landed and the Zilog z80 was just around the corner. If a designer cared about chip count or cost, they used one of those.

The AMD 2900 family squarely targeted at high-performance mini-computers. Not only could you chain 4bit slices together to make a 16 or 32bit ALU, but they could run at significantly higher clock speeds than both a microprocessor or a CPU made out of pure TTL logic.

The 2901 ALUs might save you some TTL chips, but those sequencer chips require so much support logic and microcode ROMs that your new design might actually exceed the chip count of whatever TTL-only CPU it's replacing. But... the new CPU will be faster and much more flexible thanks to the microcode.

The AMD 2900 family allowed minicomputer designs to stay relevant for a few extra years, but only until larger single-chip CPUs like the Intel 8086 and Motorola 68000 hit the market.

> I tell you I have two children and that (at least) one of them is a boy, and ask you what you think is the probability that I have two boys.

I want to find

P(you have two boys|you tell me that you have two children including at least one boy) = P(you have two boys|you tell me that X)

where for convenience I use the notation X=“you have two children including at least one boy”

I can write

P(you have two boys|you tell me X) P(you tell me X) = P(you tell me X|you have two boys) P(you have two boys)

Assuming that you don’t lie I know that X is true and I can restrict the analysis accordingly.

P(you have two boys|X and you tell me X) P(you tell me X| X) = P(you tell me X|X and you have two boys) P(you have two boys|X)

That conditioning information is redundant in some terms but not always.

If the probability of a boy is 1/2 and there is no correlation we can find that P(you have two boys|X)=1/3

(Using the notation girl=not-boy we can also write P(you have one boy and one girl|X)=2/3)

But we’re after something that could be different: P(you have two boys|you tell me that X)

P(you have two boys|you tell me X) = P(you tell me X|you have two boys) P(you have two boys|X) / P(you tell me X| X) = P(you tell me X|you have two boys) P(you have two boys|X) / ( P(you tell me X|you have two boys) P(you have two boys|X) + P(you tell me X|you have one boy and one girl) P(you have one boy and one girl|X) )

Without additional assumptions we can’t go beyond

P(you have two boys|you tell me X)

being equal to

1/3 P(you tell me X|you have two boys)

divided by

1/3 P(you tell me X|you have two boys) + 2/3 P(you tell me X|you have one boy and one girl)

You seem to have misunderstood my point, which was that even if there are clear goals, that's not a guarantee that such goals are useful or reasonable -- even if they are accomplished.

Well, it's the same in XML, more or less. [1] The difference is that XML cleanly separates types and data, all the type information is in the schema and there is no type information in the data, so without a schema you can not properly type the data.

JSON on the other hand does not separate types and data, the types are implicitly contained in the data. So you can get type information from the data without a schema, at least up to the point where JSON's simple type system is no longer expressive enough, then you need - just as with XML - a schema to get the correct type information, for example to distinguish actual strings from dates.

If you really need this, nobody stops you from including type information in XMLs, <have type="boolean">true</have> attributes on elements or <quote>"strings"</quote> but not numbers <numbers>123</numbers> and use that. You will of course have to do this on your own, that is just not the way XML is supposed to be used.

[1] Let me clarify this a bit. If you handle XML, you usually have a schema and therefore the type information. If you have a non-trivial JSON, you also need a schema for the types. You can only get away without a schema for simple JSONs where the implicit type information is good enough. But then you could do almost the same with XML, just parse the content and see like what type it looks. You will not get quite to what JSON can do in a sane way but it might be good enough just as JSON without a schema is sometimes good enough.
