You’re mistaken on several points. The major concern with Nuclear is the economic cost of accidents not the deaths. Grid solar is by far the safest option per kWh, but we still subsidize relatively deadly rooftop solar because such low numbers of deaths aren’t a major concern for regulators.

Next both Nuclear and solar/wind want storage/dispatchable power to follow the daily, weekly, and yearly demand curve. Hydro can provide significant flexibility but scaling Nuclear means falling capacity factors and thus higher cost per kWh without storage.

As to battery backed solar, there’s several existing power plants that operate with the ability to store 40-50% of their daily generation capacity that are viable with current grid prices. Significant renewable storage is therefore already cost effective as long as the source electricity is cheap enough.

Finally regulations don’t really explain the price differences alone when you compare different countries and they all have similar issues you need to look deeper. One example of a root issues is modern skilled workers simply demand higher salaries. Most industries have offset this with higher levels of productivity and or outsourcing, but the Nuclear industry has completely failed here.

In theory many of these issues could be addressed, but current plans fail to do so in fundamental ways. Small modular reactors for example have gotten a lot of press but only address a small portion of overall costs. Not useless but you still need expensive workers, thick concrete walls for safety, fuel enrichment, heat exchangers, turbines, cooling towers and ponds, security guards, decommissioning, etc etc.

CANDU reactors attempted to address the need for enrichment but failed to be cost effective for other reasons. And so it goes through many promising concepts that never materialized.
I really wish vague no context titles like this wouldn't be allowed. I don't know who votes for two words with no other information, but it seems silly.
The issue is that the printer manufacturer needs to provide a printer driver for MacOS that gives MacOS access to that printer capability. (One could argue that Apple should write the driver, and they might for very popular devices.)

It's like we need to have a recurring demonstration of the old saying 'the path to hell is paved with good intentions' because we keep forgetting.
I believe that providing technical support is a crucial skill for a developer.

If someone cannot assist a single user in resolving their issue, I question their ability to create effective documentation that reduces the occurrence of perplexing problems for inexperienced users. Furthermore, they are less likely to design a user experience (UX) that tries to avoid unnecessary complications and strange issues.
I am more concerned about having an easy way to develop the frontend, more than where to host it.

Indeed. The internet hasn't been regulated in the same way as other mediums. Expanding into it had a low bar of entry and these "heroes" were the best executions. This was mostly luck, as if google didn't exist, we might well all be saying Yahoo founders were geniuses for getting the same engineers and product people pushing the same goals instead.
Thanks for the details.

I am on my phone so couldn't really test it out, but it sounds sufficiently niche that it could both benefit or be harmed by releasing the code.

Usually, the hardest bit is getting the infrastructure set up, so if you do have dozens of intertwined components, just pushing the code might not really help anyone.

Still, I think it depends on the business you have and market you are covering, more than the app itself. Eg. if your market is huge, somebody will want to jump in. If it's tiny, nobody else is probably going to bother even if you made it trivial to deploy and run. And there is a huge continuum of options in between :)

One thing I've seen was default to AGPL after, say, 3 years after release. Depending on the development pace, you might make that 1 or 5 years. In general, this means you could AGPL the version from 5 years ago today.
The company itself says it keeps thorough and detailed data about all this. So presumably the courts and government would use that version.
Lisp has a profound effect on the business model because it can give you a dramatic productivity boost (like an order of magnitude or more) but it makes staffing more difficult because there aren't many experienced Lisp programmers because very few organizations use it, which makes for a vicious cycle. But this is precisely the sort of situation that if enough people simply changed their minds that by itself could change the underlying reality.

It's not just Lisp. There's a similar thing happening today with Rust, which is clearly superior to C from a technical point of view, but which very few people use simply because there are very few people using it. But Rust might be one of the rare exceptions where the technical superiority is enough to allow it to break this cycle.
They died at young age, miserably?
The field flips from time to time. I wonder how that works into the theory/tests.
The absolute downside is it is a distraction from running the business.

Money is a better tool to improve recruitment, in all probability there are better code bases for random people to learn from, and your principles are only opinions at heart.

To put it another way, if it was obviously a good idea, you would not have a question.

Good luck.

I believe this research is hugely flawed since it seems to focus solely on bureaucracy coming directly from the European institutions, while it might be true that we as citizens don’t get actually really in touch directly with EU bureaucracy we certainly experience a lot of bureaucracy in our daily lives.

This comes from countries policy and law making who are obliged to implement EU regulations but also are adding their own local bureaucracy on top of it.

While it’s here different in different countries within the EU it certainly feels more often overburden, restrictive and senseless (speaking from my own individual experience in Germany and Netherlands).
I wrote SRFI-171 for scheme. Ask me anything.

Lie detectors aren't remotely reliable enough to be used like this. Sufficiently skilled people can beat them and people tend to react to the sensitive questions (is the machine going to falsely say I'm lying???) even when telling the truth.

However, I do believe they have a role in law enforcement. The same hardware can be repurposed for a guilty knowledge test. The police keep secret the details of the crime. If they catch a suspect they hook them up to a lie detector and make them repeat the details--some true, some false and compare the reactions. (I do not consider this compelled testimony as they're just reading a script.) Someone who shows a sufficient pattern of hitting on the true ones knows the details. It won't false positive because the innocent doesn't know which answers are the guilty ones (to be safe the person doing it should likewise not know so you don't get a Clever Hans effect) and won't tense up because if it. It could statistically but if you have enough questions you can make this possibility vanishingly small. There still is a chance of a false negative if the guy can beat it (unlikely) or actually didn't note the details you're asking about.
Oh no, this is sad to read.

I worked with ttn a long time ago, 1999 to 2001, and lost touch with him a few years later. The last time I saw him in person was in my kitchen in Oakland in 2001.

He was one of the good ones.
In the late 60s and 70s when Canada was building the most amount of homes, the Federal government was deeply, deeply involved in housing not just by financing and building publicly owned below market housing and coops, but also huge tax expenditure to heavily incentivize and help finance market housing.

All that ended in 1993 with the Jean Chretien austerity budgets. Feds stopped participating in social housing, incentives ended, transfers to Provinces were scaled back, and Provinces responded by pulling back themselves.

Accordingly basically nil non-market housing was built for decades.

Market housing financing became harder and creation slowed and shifted toward a sort of condo product marketed toward the relatively wealthy. Creation of purpose built rental pretty much ended.

So at this point it's pretty clear that huge tax expenditure and investment from the Feds and Provinces in helping finance new housing creation both market and not market is required.

There's also policy work to be done here to try to stream line municipal rules to hopefully make it easier such that less government aid is required.

But yea just by looking at what we were doing in the 60s/70s and now there's a massive difference that suggests at what the solutions could be.
that is only true if you don't have a VFD. At that point you can basically get whatever you want out of them until they melt or blow out a bearing
You could, but now you have three addresses per node instead of one. Plus, the mechanisms for assigning those addresses are weird compared to DHCP and static assignment. I get that it facilitates packets being routed reliably, but some of us want maintainable firewall rules that don't have to deal with IP addresses changing out of the blue.
If the file dependencies don't actually matter, you can mark the build targets as .phony

And still get to have things like make build vs make push, etc.
...That's absurd. It's illegal, and we know about it, but thats okay, we have a huge legal department, we'll tie up any court cases that arise.

Is that how the system we want is meant to operate? Are people ultimately okay throwing their money behind such a company?

I'm failing to even grok where these ideas come from anymore.

> So are you saying that you didn't see a salary difference between PHP roles and C# or Java roles?

No. What I said was that language was not as relevant as the complete engineering ability that makes someone a valuable (financially viable) employee.

> but smart/good developers will find that CV/Salary pressures steers them away from PHP

I never met a person who entered world of IT with the criteria that you highlighted there. My recent experience shows that people enter IT/development based on salary alone, not based on research they conducted taking into account industry they'd work in, language features etc.

If this case you wrote of actually existed, world of software would be a place of much more high quality software and not of "it barely works" projects that resemble Frankenstein's monster.
> enforcing a standard charger on phones.

Given that the world was going to USB-C all on their own, I don't think it's fair to give credit to the EU for this one. Let's talk about it again in a decade when we're all still stuck on USB-C because going to something better would violate the law.
“Obviously malicious” is assuming the conclusion here. This might seem “obvious” because a lot of other people say so. It’s social proof. But looking at it myself, it’s not at all obvious to me.
How are transducers different than iterators in C++ or Rust or streams in Java?
The EU never mandated cookie banners, websites added cookie banners instead of not collecting your data
Errm, one huge reason why the EU bureaucracy can be so comparatively small is precisely because it relies on the domestic bureaucracies of its constituent states to translate its decisions into actual actions that impact the actual people living there. That is, the actions of the domestic bureaucracies that people actually interact with aren't merely some unrelated thing that people are basing their view of EU bureaucracy on, they effectively act as the public face of that bureaucracy and the rules it creates.
Yeah, I had a variation on that not long ago. I was outside, it was warm and I was facing the sun. Just before I needed it my phone suddenly piped up that it was overheating and it force-closed all apps and wouldn't run anything until it cooled down a bit.
If a policy will predictably backfire, but the EU passes it anyway because the policy has good intentions, I would actually describe that as the EU's fault.
Realities of company and cloud complexities require new levels of control and autonomy to meet business goals at scale
Per capita data makes sense. CO2 emissions don’t change if we cut giants countries into many smaller ones. If China was 25 different countries you wouldn’t be pointing the finger to them.

Why shouldn’t the highest emitters not be the ones to reduce most?
Yes I know putting it into practice by law is not practical or even wanted. I just don't believe climate changes significantly improves by having electric cars and replacing old light bulbs with led. We need more deepcutting measures.

Either have less kids or power the world nuclear and all eat vegan (no methane producing animals), or accept the new climate reality and deal with the heat or whatever. Just don't pretend we are doing a good job at the moment because we don't.

Steve (Jobs, not Blank) was an unparalleled visionary. I give him credit for the Apple II [1], the Mac, Objective C, NeXTOS/OSX/MacOS, and the whole i-series from his second stint at Apple (iMac, iPod, iPhone, iPad). To call him an overachiever would be quite the understatement. He is truly in a class by himself. I can't offhand think of anyone else in his league. (Elon Muck comes closest, but I'd rate him a very distant second.)

[1] Yes, I know Woz actually designed and built it, but Burrell Smith designed the original Mac, and neither of those things would have been possible without Jobs.
Linux 6.6 Allowing Per-Policy CPUFreq Performance Boost Control
I think the world would benefit if western nations had a carbon levy on imports as well as a carbon tax on domestically-produced goods. Or, with the added costs, market forces would encourage people to find more efficient lifestyles. If someone wanted a more environmentally-taxing lifestyle, they could play the fair cost.
There were reasons for it even developers didn't understand.
PDF is actually Adobe PDF and you had to use the Adobe PDF Creator to create PDFs. To be able to save to PDF by a 3rd party application would have meant licenses fees to Adobe. So some clever guys came up to "misuse" a printer library for PDF creation...
Today in Libre Office, of course you find a button to _save_ directly to PDF. Not sure about MS Office though.
Obviously the partner is the jerk in the story but "Oh, we threw most of them away" and "I could just say ‘fuck you’ and walk out” aren't hallmarks of great support and probably contributed to the escalation of what started as a simple request for a manual.

It's fun adjusting the final number here. I found 100 to be entertaining.
I don't think there's something wrong with you. I also think there's nothing wrong with people sharing _interesting_ stuff, whether they do it ultimately for shallow likes or for ... you know... just sharing _interesting_ stuff.

On a side note, I get the "entitlement" from nobody. I take it. I also mean that in the best way possible. Nobody's asking for my software, my (future) articles, my point of view, etc. Still, I make stuff and sometimes share stuff. I think it can be a net value for some people (definitely not for everyone). This is only the reasoning behind it, the main motivator was me realizing I matter as a human being and I have only one life to live. I learned that because of experiencing a 'dark night of the soul' a couple of years back. Luckily I got through. And to be honest, if it wasn't for the internet - made up of personal websites and real people sharing their own experience on forums - that taught me everything there is to know about Cluster B disordered personalities (just an example, cough nothing personal cough), I don't think I would be sitting here typing this lengthy response.

I realized I can not sit back, enjoy the decline of the internet, and only complain about it. I would love to see the web have a lot of personal websites and blogs about every kind of subject, so I started to build a website software. The web/internet, and all the information shared and made easily accessible, made me able to save myself. I was probably helped more by some random dude who put up a website fifteen years ago with everything he knew about certain stuff than I was helped by anything else.
And I basically never give my consent. I'm happy that I have that choice (assuming a site honours it, of course).

This also allows me to decide which sites value my privacy (no cookie banners) and which do not (annoying banner every time I visit), so that's another plus in my opinion.
FreeBSD 14 Beta Released – Initial WiFi 6 Support, Updated LLVM Toolchain
Yeah the comparison doesn't make sense to me. # of people governed is about the same, but without the EU, each of the member states still has a full national government that does a lot of the legwork of administrating their country.

USG does more because US state governments are not equipped like EU member national governments.
What I am taking issue with is the assertion from the other poster that "Greenhouse gasses scales super-linearly with income" which links to a page. That page looks at one year, 2021, and makes assertions that don't account for annual trends like the decrease in emissions the US has been experiencing for years and will continue to experience. The US _IS_ reducing emissions. It also doesn't take into account the large expected increases over just say the next decade in countries like China.

Total global emissions are an important factor to consider for the global climate and focusing only on reducing emissions of the US will be meaningless because total global emissions will still continue to go up.

edit: thanks for clarifying btw and here is trends in total global emissions found on the page https://www.epa.gov/ghgemissions/global-greenhouse-gas-emiss...

I am a data scientist with 3 years of experience in consulting. I am an excellent communicator and very much a people-person, and thrive in building rapport with stakeholders and explaining those technical concepts to non technical audiences. I also have over 8 years of non-commercial management and leadership experience.

I am largely looking for remote work, though I'm open to working in office in London or even relocating if required. My ideal role would be people-focused, through either managing people or managing projects, though I am of course open to more traditional data science / analyst roles too.
> Underscoring this momentum, Samsung and UT announced a plan to formalize a years-long partnership between the two organizations to support a semiconductor manufacturing talent development pipeline.

I think this is a fantastic plan. Having an actual employer who will more-or-less take you by default is a much better value proposition for college than some other paths...

The proximity of the university campus to the existing A2/S2 lines should allow for quality field trip opportunities. I know how Samsung's management feels about strangers up on the catwalk, but that was the #1 thing that inspired me - Seeing the actual starship with my own eyes.

It could be the case that these specific strain of good bacteria does not last long enough in the mouth for some reason. For example they could mutate or they might not have the capability to attach itself to the tooth surface for long enough.

In their website they claim that within 30 days the good bacteria will outcompetes the bad one. I don't think you can stop taking the tablets after those 30 days completely to keep tits benefits. Those bacteria might die down over a course of a few months for various reasons.

This is usually called "soft realtime" -- you want it to be fast but it's not wrong if it misses deadlines. It doesn't violate correctness of the system to miss a deadline. In a "hard realtime" system, it is a fatal error if the system misses a deadline because correctness is violated. I presume this difference is what OP is talking about. Games are never hard realtime; missing frame deadlines reduces user experience but it doesn't break the game. Hard realtime is things like industrial motion control, automotive and aviation electronics, pacemakers, etc.
I've looked for something like that and the options seem pretty slim. I'd like a simple device you can drop in a pocket that records audio on a fairly long loop. Obviously it's going to get some clothing noise but I think it would be useful anyway.

Obviously it's only legal in one-party states but that covers most of the US.
