You are going to need to grandfather users of existing used cars if you don't want a mob with pitchforks and torches. Even when electric cars are affordable on average its necessary to understand the effect on price and value that would be caused by changing incentives. There are around 250 million fossil fuel cars on the road and $160/gallon fuel taxes would make those cars value effectively go to zero while sending electric cars price to the moon.

Even if scaled in over time to avoid breaking the economy you would have a long tail of cheap used cars which would be difficult for users to up and replace owned by those least likely to be able to absorb the shock.

You have folks commuting in a $5000 car for 10 years for which $20,000 would be a financial death sentence. There are plenty of folks who absolutely need a car to be able to work and continually keep an older used car for a LOT less than average.

Not all of these folks could even get a car loan for a compliant car so you would be basically telling them to go fuck themselves.

It makes more sense to simply mandate phasing out manufacturing or importing new gas powered consumer cars and let cars age out rather than using extreme gas taxes as a lever.

Tornado Cash Founders Charges with Money Laundering
I was in Laihaina in mid-July. I've been all over the world and that was easily one of the most beautiful places I've experienced. Locals were incredibly friendly (bought a hat at Maui Hat). No hint of snobbery or localism. Very sad. The tour-guide that took us out to a tourist submaraine died in this fire. I saw countless kids with their parents on the beaches (we went to baby beach). I'm just a dumb tourist but I experienced profane sadness over some of the people I'd met that I know got totally wiped out, died or are ruined. Nobody had any time to react because most people were sheltering form the storm winds. The locals should have sounded the sirens to get people out of their houses.

I'm curious if this will be investigated as a possible crime. Consider an open fairground area. A fire has broken out. The company who owns the fairgrounds announces for people to stay put or turn around, do not go around the barricades. People obey and die.

An argument could me made that the company is negligible, and possibly criminally liable for manslaughter, although that would be a stretch.

> They're generally fine with people looking at their work to develop their own skills because that's how the field sustains itself. Art is a skill and a culture. You become an artist by participating.

I think you're overemphasizing just how personal the connection is with the "artists stealing" from others. A more relevant example isn't some person giving personal lessons to another artist, but for example, me drawing a fox and pulling up some reference photos and pictures to use. When a person does this, in general, nobody bats an eye - as far as I know, this practice is exceedingly common.

> A group of people who are not artists basically showed up without talking to anyone and is trying to displace the original culture, by using work that they extracted from that culture. The entire attitude from the AI art community is hostile.

You're characterizing AI enthusiasts in a very simplistic fashion. Ask yourself this - are some of them that angry because they're "just bad people"? Was the technology created with a nefarious villainous plan to push out artists? Because from my perspective, while some people will inevitably be mean-spirited, a lot of the anger stems from the pushback on some of the angrier anti-AI proponents, ones that commonly discredit others' work and advocate for draconian IP laws.
I've heard people casually make the argument that human hunters function similarly to natural predators in terms of increasing population fitness -- but does that actually make sense?

A natural predator is incentivized to identify and go after a weak prey animal, b/c it's easier. Maybe this shifts the prey population to be a bit faster, or have sharper reflexes or something. But a modern human hunter may feel drawn to try to take the choicest specimen (e.g. a mature male deer with large antlers), and shoots from a distance, and a bullet moves too fast for the variance in reaction time or running speed of the animals to matter. Do human hunters using modern tech really select for fitness?

I do know that in fisheries around the world, when regulations said that only fish of a given species above a given size could be kept, fish got smaller. I.e. they were "fitter" in the sense of being more likely to be released by a human fisher, but not in the sense of having gained any advantage wrt the natural parts of their ecosystem. There are a lot of fishing competitions where the size of the largest fish trends down over time (and the records were set decades ago) not because individual competitors got worse at fishing, but because we selected against large fish.

I think the most plausible argument for human hunters being a net environmental good is just that in many places the fees associated with hunting licenses are a source of funds for actual conservation work.

As a last bit of advice, you are looking for a full-stack web dev role, but I don't see a web site. I suggest creating a web site where you show off your React.js and other skills, ideally also showing off your server-side skills. Even a static site exported by Vite or Next.js would be preferable to no site.

I think most places are "turn on red is legal, if you don't have to cross traffic?" In practice, this means right for most intersections, and left for 1-way to 1-way. (And to be fully fair, they usually are codified individually.)

Similarly, many places are taking up the "Idaho Stop law" for cyclists. Gets rather annoying to have to explain to random folks that you can, in fact, not fully stop at a stop sign as a biker now.

Nonsense!

Throughout history laws have been changed by repeated protest and civil disobedience in breaking those laws.

Often it seems likely that breaking the law was the only way to get it changed on any non-geological timescale.

Especially here, we should be calling for everyone to join IA in breaking a bad law — or take on the task from them so they can focus on archiving and supporting from the sidelines — rather than pretending that we should all sit around being subjugated further by the day by corporate interests while we donate to the EFF or whoever (which we should also do) and hope one day for someone in government to listen and change the law.
> What makes you think a mafia boss would be stupid? Wouldn't street smart be exactly the kind of trait that would put you in the upper echelons of a mafia state such as Russia.

What makes you think a mafia boss would be smart? Their defining features are ruthlessness and brutality, not intelligence or "street smarts". Putin for example is known for bombing civilian apartment buildings to get into power and very publicly poisoning traitors with polonium and nerve agents, not to mention entering a disastrous war and tanking the Russian economy.

Those upper echelons are only there as an accident of history. They were in the right place and the right time to loot the Russian state during privatization while killing, imprisoning, and controlling all their opposition.
They also selectively archive - which I find more problematic. Just check out the special treatment internet mean girl and professional crybaby Taylor Lorenz got through familial connections. If they are willing to censor for such a banal reason what else are they lying through omission on?

Volcanic ash is glass (the stone melts during an eruption due to the heat, then explodes into millions of splinters as clouds which lock down air travel because it melts again in the engines and destroys them) and can be found thousand of kilometers away afterean eruption (e.g. Yosemite eruption), creating a deadly environment for every animal where it's falling down.

> I'm always dumbfounded hearing about the American way to think about food, all you can readily buy is so industrialized, you miss so much.

I think you're dumbfounded because you don't understand how Americans think about food, except what you hear on the Internet. Which, I shouldn't have to point out, is mostly a load of horseshit.

America is the land of farms as far as the eye can see, growing all kinds of different foods. We have wonderful foods. I can go into a bog standard Kroger right now and there's an entire wing of the store with fresh fruits and vegetables, another area with hundreds of different cheeses from around the world. I can even buy common European brands of butter (though I prefer our local stuff). And this is a bland everyday American supermarket, not one of the many local farmer's markets.

Sometimes I wonder where Europeans get their crazy ideas about what it's like to live in America.
Author of `wherr` here.

> I think the disadvantage you mention is actually an advantage. I would probably want this to propagate alongside other `track_caller`'s since anyone using `track_caller` is "in the know" about where that error should be appearing to come from.

I've now read about `#[track_caller]`, and that's my conclusion too. For those who haven't heard about `#[track_caller]` like myself, I can recommend this page: https://blog.rust-lang.org/2020/08/27/Rust-1.46.0.html#track...

> TBH I had assumed this crate was using the `#[track_caller]` attribute.

TBH, having read about the `#[track_caller]` attribute, I'm starting to think the crate should use it.

If you and/or @afdbcreid would be interested in working with me on a new implementation of the `wherr` crate that uses the `#[track_caller]` approach instead, please contact me at joel at compiler dot org. Hope to hear from you!

> The main downside I see is that if I manually construct the error type I'll miss that place, unless the constructor of that error also tracks the caller.

You mean, we would need to make sure the error type is always created via a new() constructor method, and that the new() method also has the `#[track_caller]` attribute? Something like this?

impl MyError {
#[track_caller]
pub fn new<E: StdError + Send + Sync + 'static>(error: E) -> Self {
Self {
error: Box::new(error),
location: Location::caller(),
}
}
}

It's taken me some time to digest the angle of your comment. Maybe my dig at CSS3's complexity was taken as a dig against CSS itself?

I've been practicing webdev since 1999 or so; I understand how useful CSS is and still remember the dark times of inline style attributes. :)

Making something on the Web is a bit strange due to needing to set up 3 different technologies, and line them up just so, and pray a future browser update doesn't mess up some logical assumption you made along the way.

It appears CSS classes are used somewhat like UI 'states', in a JS app. It's taken some time to adjust to using more logically meaningful class names instead of structurally meaningful that I used with regular non-JS webdev. Toggling a class somewhere sometimes requires doing other things in the UI, too. I've found lots of tiny little UI bugs as I develop and learn more about how things need to work in an event-based system.

As a result, I find I do not like this way of building things. Sure, it's cross-platform, because the browser-makers do all the heavy lifting. But Tcl/Tk is cross-platform. Allegro and wxWidgets and Qt are, too. Tkinter is a single `import` away. Each has its own challenges that get added on as a result of not relying on a multi-gigabyte-per-instance virtual machine, but software is all about trade-offs is it not?

Lesser used things aren't changed as often, for example. You can rely on them to not change so quickly. Compared to Mozilla or Google, who are competing for highest software version number and have a new release every 6 weeks.

Go ahead and pretend grid storage is some pretend technology and isn't in actual production use.

That is honestly unhinged, and if nuclear proponents thing grid storage is some far off technology, they are more divorced from th economic reality than I thought.

Nuclear is 141$ per mwhr. Solar +storage is $45. Solar/wind are $24.

This pattern of improvement isn't some new phenomenon, and you can't pretend these are made up figures. Is storage pricing new? Yeah. Is the cost of battery backup going to drop? Virtually guaranteed with new sodium ion techs and the other stuff in the pipeline.

Attitudes like this frankly just validate that the entire current generation of the nuclear industry simply has a flawed and obsolete structure and outlook. They are simply ossified in a huge regulatory capture wall.

As a younger person who strongly prefers black text on white backgrounds, I talked to some of my friends who use dark mode and discovered that they almost exclusively use their screens in dark rooms. Scrolling through their phone in bed with the lights off, for example. And younger PC gamers typically leave their room light off when they're on their computer.

The constant "light mode hurts my eyes!" never made sense to me until I tried using my computer in a completely dark room. So I think the trend over the past decade isn't really dark mode itself, it's more people using screens in dark rooms.
That wasn't specified. It can be done without fossil fuels, of course. If I understand correctly, it doesn't require more heat energy than the conventional process starting from limestone.

It is simply because you are not looking far enough. Yes, it is easier to get obese now. Imagine a world centuries ago, in the hunter-gatherer times. It was very hard to get obese then because it was a serious risk. Over time, technology has made it safer to get out of shape and obese.

The alternative is they get cancer? Well, now more people might stay obese, perhaps just a small fraction, or people will be less motivated. Maybe it will be hard to calculate based on this one invention, but 100 inventions like this means more and more people will stop caring. Imagine a world where medicine has solved 100% of problems. Then you could just get obese very easily without much consequence.

I am not assuming people who are overweight AREN'T aware. Of course they are, and some have a lot of difficulty losing weight. But some do, and now the incentive to do so is imperceptibly lessened.
