This just isn't how the grid works. Texas has added more than double the amount of renewable energy than any other state grid in the last two years. These investments introduce variable production and require on-demand response to keep the demand/consumption balance steady. Normal / residential consumers do not have a steady demand, don't prepay power usage, and don't guarantee future power usage. All of these factors are what make industrial demand response valuable and necessary for the modernizing, increasingly-renewable based, power grid. ERCOT isn't perfect, I think there are areas for vast improvement, but I think your comment is a little uninformed as to how the grid currently works and will be working in the future as we increase renewable production.
> They paid over the odds to take it private at $32Bn in 2016 at a time where they were just spewing money. 4 years later they think they can offload it to Nvidia for $40Bn

That’s just over 6% compounded annually for a $32 billion hardware company in a 0% interest environment. Those aren’t software numbers but to me it seems like a good investment. And remember - Nvidia was absolutely happy to make the purchase and the industry basically locked that shit down with antitrust litigation threats. The valuation of the company within Nvidia is drastically higher because it gives Nvidia leverage over their competitors and a foothold into other markets (remember Tegra? Yeah, they got their lunch eaten by other ARM SoC vendors).

The real problem with ARM is that they let a lot of the value be captured by their partners who make chips off that design. This is good for the industry, but suddenly 10x more valuable for a single competitor if they manage to acquire it.

You should run your critical loops through perf or a similar tool and get statistics for branch misprediction. If you have a lot of misprediction, you should think about doing branchless stuff. If you don't have a lot of misprediction, the branchy code will be faster.

Sometimes you can guess whether the data the loop will hit will be predictable or not. The same applies; if you expect it to be predictable, then don't try to remove branches. If you expect it to be unpredictable, try to remove branches.

Note that you will need to teach yourself your expectations; the branch predictor might be better or worse than you expect it to be. Modern branch predictors are extremely complex, often taking more die space than everything except cache. Don't assume that just because you can't see a pattern in the data, the branch predictor won't be able to.
100% one of the best things about building a TUI is not having the pain of modern web development. I do think there is a way to have a CLI & TUI come from the same code, so you can get the best of both, or pick the best for the task at hand.

AIUI, turning on a dormant power plant is an expensive process, but utilities need to be careful to balance the amount of power they put into the network is close to the amount of power being consumed or "bad things will happen™"

If the power draw is fluctuating around a level where one more power plant needs to be on during the high demand, but is is low enough during low demand for it to be dangerous to keep the plant running, it can be cheaper to just "soak up the extra" than to cycle the whole plant on and off.
No, "adopted" means that you gave Code Shelter permission to add contributors to your repo (the same repo you've always used). Otherwise, there wouldn't be a need for CS, since anyone can fork any repo.

CS is there to ensure continuity for the original repo (and releases).
It’s not useless.

It seems a Thunderbolt/USB4 external NVME enclosure can do about 2500-3000 MB/s which is about half of internal SSD. So not at all bad. It’ll just add an additional few tens of seconds while loading the model. Totally manageable.

Edit: in fact this is the proper route anyway since it allows you to work with huge model and intermediate FP16/FP32 files while quantizing. Internal storage, regardless of how much, will run out quickly.

Yes but the "both sides" argument is a fallacy.

I live in a red state whose natural environment has been devastated by Republican policies for over a century. What people see here today is a remnant of primordial old-growth wilderness. But they think it's natural and how it's always been. Similarly to the way that austerity drives struggle and suffering for working class families, but they continue voting conservative against their own self-interest. The worse it gets, the more they vote Republican. Like Lucy pulling the football away from Charlie Brown right as he is about to kick it.

Democrats have been pushing for sustainability and a national rollout of renewable energy since at least the 1960s, definitely before the Earth First! movement of the 1980s, and probably all the way back to the strengthening of national parks by Teddy Roosevelt during the Progressive Era around 1900. It's odd to imagine a Republican as an environmentalist today, but there used to be many. That helps us to understand how the parties flipped due to stuff like Nixon's Southern Strategy.

We can blame Democrats for urban sprawl, high state sales tax, red tape/overregulation, basic hypocrisy in not living sustainably at an individual level and subscribing to neoliberalism like Republicans. But the economic and environmental problems we face today are mostly a result of decades of anti-sustainability legislation and subsidies for fossil fuel companies by Republicans. To say otherwise is revisionist history and not the academic view IMHO.

With the 100 year storms hitting the south every 2-10 years now, the environmental bill is coming due. It's all but certain that some number of southern states will flip blue. It will be interesting to see if that improves their infrastructure, or if it's too late.

But I do agree with you about the dysfunction. When the Boomers pass, I wonder if the parties will flip again and introduce a whole new set of wedge issues to argue about incessantly as the world burns.
Thats a cool project.

>But I don't think the "pretend it isn't" makes any sense

Well, let me expand a bit more. React's pitch is that view is a function of state, and essentially designed around the idea of an immutable state which re-renders everything when changed. It then offered some APIs to allow fine-tuning of rendering via hooks which either ties with data changes or some rendering life-cycle. To me the API screams of stubborn refusal to let go of the "view as a function of state" mantra: When you encounter a scenario where it breaks the mantra, lets add another lever to handle it. This lever also has to be pulled by you the developer, and it is up to you to know when to do it.

>I actually like React more than Svelte for many reasons, but magic compilers and templates are two big ones.

I don't really have an issue with compilers. They are the accepted magic that bridges between language for people and language for machines. The ideal language might be something that is functional and immutable language that it is easy for us to read, but compiles to the optimized, imperative updates that machine can run well.

I'd probably like React better if it had a compile layer on top of its more functional parts?

As for templates, JSX is probably the one great thing that came out of React. It is no wonder that many other frameworks are embracing JSX, but none of them are really forking the idea of hooks.

transferring control of parks to non-profits is a relatively common workaround to for a conservation-friendly government to ensure that parks outlast the current government.

if you keep protected areas within control of the government, there's always a concern that the next government decides to cancel those protections and sell that park off to industry or development. but if it's already "sold off" to a non-profit who wants to keep it a park, then it can't be sold to industry.

"Defund, make sure things don’t work, people get angry, you hand it over to private capital." -- Noam Chomsky

I generally agree with you but not on that point. I don't blame people for checking out. Fighting the wrongness of the world is just extremely tiresome. At some point, people change themselves instead. They stop trying to fruitlessly change things and move on with their lives, often with the goal to make a ton of money so they can isolate themselves from the rotten society.

Sometimes the only healthy way to react to something is to laugh at the absurdity of it as if you were a sociopathic Joker. It's a coping mechanism for dealing with an imperfect unfixable reality.

People hate this idea, but that just makes me think it has merit. Stop trying to reduce/recycle plastic use. We need to increase it. We need carbon sinks, and so lets produce more plastic, use it, then bury it in a way that prevents it from getting out. Switch production to use atmospheric carbon (or maybe just use trees) to create the plastic, switch back to never-degrade plastic formulas, and then just pull carbon out of the atmosphere, use it for plastic products, and then bury those plastic products forever.

Plastics are awesome, it is us trying to recycle them and not bury them that is the actual problem.
I've read Daemon by Daniel Suarez, like many tech people. I get it. AI could take over and supplant a global government, threatening society, life, wealth etc etc.

We've been having the same conversation since the dawn of science fiction. If at any point there is a general confusion between what is artificial, and what is human, it will cause such an alarmist backlash that AI will always be kept in check, or destroyed..

No human wants to admit that they thought they were talking to a human the whole time when in fact it was a robot. For that reason alone AI will never be allowed to grow to a point where it threatens life "as we know it."
Not sure if you're as naive as your comments here, or just spouting the standard jargon, but even "We're using most of the funds to develop our professional offering" and " Our investors leave free to work on whatever technology" are in complete disagreement.

While I don’t work for Tailscale and don’t know their specific reasons, I do know that US export controls and sanctions with respect to Cuba are quite complicated and are designed more due to historical & continuing political pressures than sensible policy.

I used to be involved in leading a US charitable nonprofit that, during the Obama years, once wanted to pay for someone to attend a technical conference in Cuba (or maybe it was to pay for a Cuban to attend a technical conference elsewhere - I forget). We did actually make it happen, but it involved consulting with lawyers, comparing the details of the situation against the applicable rules, and getting people to promise to stay within those rules.

My guess is that either Tailscale or one of the providers they depend on is cutting off Cubans as an attempt to comply with these Cuba-specific US legal obligations, or at least to reduce their risk of falling into non-compliance.

At the very least, GitHub has found ways to legally make most (not all) of their offerings available to Cubans / in Cuba despite the sanctions, except for more narrowly banned individuals and groups. So if you can obtain the open source code for Tailscale (client) and Headscale (server), you can at least use that to benefit from Tailscale’s software.

In theory GUI is a superset of TUI, there's nothing inherently bad or unproductive about GUI. You can argue in practice there exist a lot of unproductive GUI that's worse than a TUI client, but I think it's the problem of the designer, not the tool.

Also there are some areas that's universally acknowledged to be better suited for GUI, anything that requires visualization like video editing, image editing, 3d modeling, etc. Maybe someone can go full ffmpeg to edit a feature length film, but that'll take some effort.
