Why would there be correlation? Do you mean in your own mind, or decided by others?

I don't understand. You post things you don't necessarily believe, to see how people react? This is not a healthy approach for you or the platform. You could instead use one account and simply say you're not sure about this or that idea, or on the fence about particular issues.
Seems unlikely at this point. We have only two choices now:

Indeed https://github.com/potree/potree has a bit awkward navigation, but there are quite a few nice lidar datasets available to explore with it, like the scan of the Matterhorn. I once used it to explore a dataset made by a photogrammetry drone, was quite nice.

The entire country of the Netherlands is also available here: http://ahn2.pointclouds.nl/ There is no rgb information, only elevation. But you can make out individual power powerlines, the scan resolution is really high.
> You could also try using the count and for_each meta-arguments, but there's only so much you can do until complexity hits you in the head. And let's be honest, if something is called a "meta-argument", it's probably not a good idea.

Let’s actually be honest: here’s the workable solution -built into the language- to the problem you’re describing and you’re waving it away to justify whatever hack it is we’re about to be presented with.
BetterTouchTool has a different approach, it's not a programming language per se, but lets you write JavaScript or AppleScript code to achieve anything you can do with AutoHotkey, and more. If BTT were available for Windows, I'd never touch AHK again.
IMO, we need both - people screaming out loud to reduce consumption and rooting for truly green technologies that create a revolution. While some silent practical warriors change the status quo one kg of CO2 at a time until those revolutionary changes kick in.

I think no sensible person would protest a more sustainable solution than the current fossil burning tech even if it is not 100% renewable.
Now try to ship an app using only UNIX apis.
An AEAD mode on a physical disk doesn't make a lot of sense. You are mapping disk blocks to disk blocks (in the case of cryptsetup, literally via devicemapper) and so you have two choices: a) alter the sector size to something weird so you can fit in tags per sector, likely breaking a lot of code that can't cope with this or b) just use XTS and accept that you can't have AEAD.

It isn't like the average hard disk permits padding oracles and chosen plaintext/ciphertext attacks to be mounted easily, except of course if you are storing disk images in the cloud, but then you're using the wrong tool anyhow - do crypto at the file level where you aren't constrained by sector sizes.
Once you think about the tech I think there's an obvious steady state:

- It's cheaper not to check on every call sever-side and the people who are most likely to dodge in this way are also not likely potential sources of revenue.

- you shouldn't ban every person who tries this. They will gum up support and, on average, won't even be
trying to earnestly get features for free.

- Also people who exploit the obviously vulnerable account interfaces may do other things that clue you in to vulnerabilities you care about.

It seems like it's a situation where you can let people fiddle around with this a bit (a few hours, a few days) and ban folks who do it too long (a month?). People who use it heavily are unlikely to be real revenue prospects and, at the end of the day, it's an engagement funnel. People rarely use hacks on a platform they aren't using.

Personally, I rather like old school UIs, since the usability is pretty good!

That said, Namecheap's website has always felt a little bit on the slow side: every page navigation for me takes at least 2-3 seconds and that's on a pretty decent connection. Luckily I don't have to use it daily.

Overall, the prices and services that they offer seem decent to me. They are even supported well by local software like ddclient (dynamic DNS, if ever needed): https://www.namecheap.com/support/knowledgebase/article.aspx...

Except for their VPS hosting: there are more affordable and nicer options out there like Hetzner (as long as you can get an account) and perhaps Contabo (as long as you don't mind setup fees). Unless you want to have everything on as few platforms as possible, I guess.

Yes there is https://github.com/pywinauto/pywinauto but in practice it did not work as well as AHK.

It is just WinAPI underneath so C# would be another choice if there was a nice wrapper library.

I guess the answer on why AHK is so popular is that it is ugly but it works.

Hi Wekan,

looks cool but IHMO suffers from confusing documentation and onramp.

It took me multiple attempts, days apart, after initially stumbling upon this comment to get a better sense of it.

The project homepage (https://wekan.github.io/) stresses the different installers but at that point I didn't know if I want to install it or not.

Clicking on the Features link (https://wekan.github.io/#features) just takes you a few lines down on the same page which doesn't tell you much.

I tried to find a link to the Github repo but that wasn't obvious either. Eventually I stumbled upon it by following the Docs and API links at the bottom but those are very small and hidden compared to the rest of the content on the page.

From the Docs wiki there is a much better list of Features (https://github.com/wekan/wekan/wiki#:~:text=Calendar-,Featur...) that tells me more of what I was looking for.

However, I still don't know what database backends are supported or how configurable those are which I need to know in order to assess my backup strategy and how much work it will be for me to maintain this for our intranet site.
I do not think multiple bands are the problem, they vary and are meant to vary across mobile network deployments by design.

The biggest promise 5G has failed to deliver on so far is the capacity. We were promised 5G cells of being able to handle "huge" numbers of subscribers in the high density areas, and that has not been the case.

In the middle of a typical business day, my 5G MiFi device has pre-4G downlink speeds, and the office is located next to a cell tower. Speed improves in the evening once people leave the CBD and hovers slightly under 1 Gbit/sec as it should.

So my understanding is that because telcos have had to pump vasts of money into the core network upgrade, which was effectively a complete core network revamp rather than upgrade, after seeing an eye-watering bill, the telcos have decided to underinvest into the cell tower capacity to break even.

So, yes, the low latency and high downlink speeds are there, but only when the cell has the capacity to provide the bandwidth.

The title promises that the article is going to explain "FD&C Dyes and Lakes"

That's three words, and I expect all three to be defined. I think that's a pretty reasonable request, not an inability to handle context or a desire for lawyer speak.

Context doesn't help explain FD&C at all. It's only in the body of the article once, and it could easily be a technical term.
Trains are probably a better choice for such trips in Europe.

Having 'done' Europe both by train and by car, the trips end up being very different. Trains are great if you want to hit the major cities. With a car you can visit all kinds of small villages, rural areas and interesting nature that you cannot really reach by public transport.

You make a claim here with "Each answer displayed astonishing understanding of what occurs." and the question you fail to ask is: Whose understanding?

The responses are based on the accumulated knowledge of humans and not machines. The systems have not thought through anything and understand nothing. A process of analysing or pattern matching the input question with the data stored retrieves an answer. But that data stored is human knowledge and human effort not machine.

If you look very carefully at the results obtained, it either contains "interesting errors" (for which an intelligent human would pick up) or it is a summation of human knowledge.

The answers still have to be tested and confirmed for rationality and applicability by humans. In other words, this is a tool like all tools created by humans.

I have seen too many examples of what are supposed to be correct answers that contained subtle and not so subtle errors.

Like every system we have ever made, Garbage in gets us Garbage out. We are the ones responsible to checking those answers and making sure that they make sense in the real world.

No, it’s more a narrative issue than anything else.

Nobody says we should go back to Stone Age but we should unleash our narratives of what is a nice future.

Living in a world where everyone is eating healthy local food, where you live longer because it’s safe to use your bicycle and hard to use the car. Living in a world where you can walk everyday because there are trees to give you their shadows. Living in a world where work is meaningful. For me that’s a bright future.

Nobody says we have to abandon all of our technological and cultural advances but that we have to prefer some over others.

Like my grandfather said, plant 2 trees when you build your home and you’ll never need air conditioning. His idea wasn’t that you should ban A/C but rather that you can use it way more efficiently just by adding some shadow.

That’s the world we must live in now : consuming energy is ok but not if it is a countermeasure to our own stupid decisions.

It’s the same with cars. Ok they are nice sometimes. But they are stupid if we use them to go in a far office with the same computer you have at home.

We don’t need to go back to Stone Age but we need to dream of a future where we don’t use the energy for stupid things. And this implies being able to see what is stupid and who have interest in keeping a given stupid thing, stupid.
It is your product. You alone have the power to set a price. You may want to do market research to figure what the users would like to pay for it, but you can still decide to go higher or lower than that outcome.

I’m perfectly fine with a software product that is on the expensive side if it justifies its value to me as a user. This particular product I don’t have a professional use for, and cannot give you a number value.
> If your napkin maths is correct, and the process is net energy positive, doesn't this violate the principle of conservation of energy?

In theory, yes, but you need to take into account all the energy that goes into the process, which includes the catalyst, and also the actual capture of the CO2.

The way i read it, this is "just" a way of turning already captured CO2 into fuel again in an efficient way.

Still, it does seem a little bit too good that you can obtain 3 kWh of energy by spending 1.6 kWh, but i guess time will tell.
What a tired and lame retort.
The point I think is that if we as a society NOW starts to develop with public transport, walkability and bikes in mind we can with time get a built environment that works without a car. No one wants to remove all parking or take away your car and force everyone to take the bus/train.

I live in a small 30k city in Scandinavia my self and know what you are talking about. It was a city with rural fishing villages and farming communities on the outskirts up until around 1960, but then the city started to spread out due to the increasing access to cars. Now most everyone drives everywhere, the small mall outside of town has grown to enormous proportions and now we even have american style strip malls along the main road out of town. Myself I live in a suburb outside of town that back in the days were farm land and some small cottages for the city folks. My family moved out here in the 80's, my dad used to take the bus out here to camp when he grew up in the 60's and 70's. Out here we are car addicted. People drive everywhere even if walking or biking takes about the same time. And people drive everywhere because the car is the default when going anywhere because we live 10 km from the mall and 18 km from the city so nothing is close by. Anyway, this is just me rambling. My point is that our places are designed for cars and such using the car becomes our default mode of transportation. By rather designing our environment for walking, cycling and public transport we can get more people to walk, bike and use public transport. And if you still "have" to use a car, that is fine. A car is a tool, and sometimes it's the best tool for the job, but very often it is not and the externalities of mass car usage is not worth it (In my opinion). :-)
Part of the problem is that those prestigious journals only want to publish the most exciting science. And, alas, the most exciting science is more likely to be wrong and rubbish. See eg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Publication_bias and the whole reproducibility crisis.

> Besides the practical advantages of not having to modify .tf files every time someone needs a new bucket, this approach also completely detaches the concept of a desired state with the concept of an actual state.

This is a really nice write up and a clear explanation of a real organisational problem with terraform. This seems more like a design pattern to me though, I dont quite see the need for a specific tool?

Terraform has the ability to work with remote tfstate files, reference resources in other tfstate files via terraform_remote_state and unique instances can be labelled via a tfvar ID as a pre/post fix. Is this a polished wrapper around those mechanisms, or is there more going on as well?

How can you tell? American economy is the biggest in the world and growing, unlike Europe.

I can agree on quality of life grounds, but "damage to the US economy" seems like a hard sell.
Sure, we now survive childhood based on vaccines, but remember that there was a time between the disease appearing and the vaccine being developed, and in that time we used simpler methods to try survive.

The issue is not what the world will be like in 200 years when the climate crisis is solved, it's how we get there. Tech takes decades to research, design, and develop; we need ways to limit the damage that can be implemented in years to limit the effects we'll see in our lifetimes. I agree tech will be the end solution, but continuing to burn at current rates while we wait for that is going to cause, or already is causing, massive problems.

Well, you usually can simply move just for a few streets/blocks, it's very unlikely you'll have to move out of the town...But let's imagine if many little shops would be forced to move out of the town because of high rents - wouldn't the town come up with some regulations to prevent that?

Capitalism is fine when it benefits the overall economy, but when it starts self-imploding because of interests of a few, then government jumps in usually - that's why we have anti-monopoly laws, because monopoly hurts the progress...

I like the Japanese approach to parking where you are required to prove that you have a place to park a car at the time of purchase, and street parking is generally not allowed [1].

I actually find it easier to find parking than in many US cities, as there are tons of private parking lots (both paid and free parking offered by businesses). But it puts the cost on the people who actually use and benefit from the parking space, and encourages people to use the space more efficiently. For example, people drive smaller cars in Japan than in the US because they are easier to park (there are other factors that influence this preference, but parking is the main reason that one of our two cars is a "kei" car).

But many of the proposed car penalties would be onerous if it isn't.

The way to solve this is diversity. Stop having laws telling people what they have to do. If someone wants to build an apartment building with ten thousand parking spaces, let them. If they want to build one with zero parking spaces, let them. Then someone will build each one. People will choose where to live based on what they value.

No. It’s impossible to provide data for a negative like this. I searched for data on how they’re protecting their patent and found nothing.

Exactly.

Punish Perdue for lying about their product, that’s fine.

But Oxycotin was always a schedule 2 drug - the most restrictive category for prescription drugs. Schedule 2 includes things like morphine, cocaine, barbiturates. Highly addictive medicines.

I’m kind of surprised the DEA took that long to get on top of it. The data should have been clearly apparent like a year into the problem.
