>>In reality, Canada and the U.S. have a "common market" of sorts that allows talent to move back and forth fairly easily.

Unfortunately, it's not really a two-way net-zero exchange, but majority one-way from Canada to the US. This is the main reason that the brain drain has been discussed since, well, forever, but the earliest that an easy Google search refers to brain drain acceleration since '89[1].

To be fair, the US has been draining brains via the seductive American Dream from all countries around the world since it's founding, but it's particularly painful because of the cultural overlap that you referred to in your comment that make migrating down south so particularly tempting.

The (not) funny part is that some suggestions to combat brain drain is to aggressively increase immigration of skilled immigrants[2], which brings us back full circle.

you don't solve what homelessness actually is just with (almost always temporary) housing, you just get people off the street, which is a necessary step one in a multi step process, because just getting them off the street and then going "k, now make it work yourself" would be about as effective as not getting them off the street.

Yes but you cleverly omitted the introductory part:

> Shock is a critical condition brought on by the sudden drop in blood flow through the body.

You've just linked to a page describing circulatory shock, which is not the thing you described as "too much calcium, too much adrenaline", which is 100% too much bullshit.
Looks very sad.

According to the USGS search engine on that part of N. Africa, there've been no other quakes >= mag 6 in the region (nor for at least halfway down the AF coast) in 200 years. (The closest was in Portugal; Agadir was a 5.8.)(There were hundreds in the eastern Mediterranean.)

So it's been centuries. That can't have helped; many of those structures have been around -a long- time.
Unless you want to bomb China and India and Africa, carbon capture is going to be a major aspect of any response to climate change. The amount of concrete that’s going to be poured in those places over the next century is by itself going to release enormous amounts of CO2.
We should check if these already exist in Japan and / or Korea. They are big on street vending.
Most aluminum for European countries comes from recycled sources. It's way less energy to just smelt old soda cans.

About 75% of all aluminum ever produced is currently is use, because we're so good at recycling it.

We need to get lithium from 5 to 75%

This is a fantastic analysis. I think a lot of sibling comments are missing an important point: Say we build enough solar to produce enough energy for peak demand. That’s going to end up wasting multiple HEU’s of electricity during the day (unless we build an insane number of batteries).

For reference, cities currently cover 3 500 000 km^2 of the earth. Also, solar density is still improving, and other sources of energy exist.

Whether or not its paranoia is the issue so you can’t presuppose it. Also, there is no reason you cant be concerned about multiple dependencies at the same time. In this case the topic is lithium.

Occidental's first DAC facility has a goal of removing 1 million tonnes of CO2 from the atmosphere per year.

Global carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels and industry were 37.12 billion metric tons (GtCO₂) in 2021

So we'd only need about 38,000 of these plants to remove the carbon we release into the atmosphere every year.

Then there's also the over 2 trillion tons of CO2 we've already released that's currently overheating the planet.
There was a pizza joint in the Oakland Neighborhood of Pittsburgh back in the ‘90s called Sorrento’s that had what they called a Chicago style pizza and I’ve been unable to find the style since. It wasn’t tavern style or the super deep dish. It was closer to a traditional round pie, but there was just something special about it I don’t know how to articulate.

Can you name one or two "newer standards" that "other languages" have invested more in migrating to, compared to PHP?

Did you mean standard, as in HTML5 or ES6? Or something more like a fashion or fad, like FP or OOP (which PHP has had for a long time)?

People ask the same old questions about PHP on StackOverflow et al. because a lot of people start with PHP and as beginners they will have the same questions every beginner had before them, and the same lack of ability figuring things out themselves or finding their questions already answered. That has nothing to do with PHP per se except that PHP offers a very easy on-ramp to getting started with web development, so a lot of newbs start there.

If you look at the W3Techs methodology, posted on their site for all to see but apparently few to bother with, you will see that self-hosted hobbyist and learning projects aren't going to make it into their results.
It would also hurt normal people as driving, heating, electric all basically doubled. Not saying it’s not worth doing, but climate isn’t hard because of a bunch of greedy oil execs (though they obviously don’t make things easier)
That shows none in the vast majority of European countries. Im sure there is more than that diagram shows but its not what the diagram shows.

I feel like most companies eventually hit the "it's hard and expensive to find experienced engineers, let's hire cheap code school grads or other nontraditional hires en masse" phase.

That's not a good sign IME[1] but it seems inevitable, so it's crucial to make the best of it - I think standard intro curricula are a great way to do it.

It's also a pretty clear "canary in the coalmine" indicator. If a "nontraditional hire" cannot master or simply can't be bothered to learn the onboarding curriculum, that's a clear warning sign w.r.t. the viability of that hire.

______

[1] To be clear I'm not entirely against inexperienced/nontraditional hires. I'm against the situation where a company wants to make the absolute newbies a majority of their hires because like, hey, they can learn from the senior devs by osmosis or whatever.
> There's no option to "turn the borrow checker off" - which means that when you're in prototyping mode, you pay this huge productivity penalty for no benefit.

Frankly I think this is a good thing! And I disagree with your "no benefit" assertion.

I don't like prototyping. Or rather, I don't like to characterize any phase of development as prototyping. In my experience it's very rare that the prototype actually gets thrown away and rewritten "the right way". And if and when it does happen, it happens years after the prototype has been running in production and there's a big scramble to rewrite it because the team has hit some sort of hard limit on fixing bugs or adding features that they can't overcome within the constraints of the prototype.

So I never prototype. I do things as "correctly" as possible from the get-go. And you know what? It doesn't really slow me down all that much. I personally don't want to be in the kind of markets where I can't add 10-20% onto a project schedule without failing. And I suspect markets where those sorts of time constraints matter are much rarer than most people tell themselves.

(And also consider that most projects are late anyway. I'd rather be late because I was spending more time to write better, safer code, than because I was frantically debugging issues in my prototype-quality code.)

That sounds like confusing the cause for the solution: there's a very big difference between "why someone became homeless" (i.e. no affordable housing) and helping "who they are now that they've been living on the street". You don't magically get those folks back on their feet purely by getting them housing, even if getting them housing is a critical step. There are so many more steps that are now necessary.
I'm not sure why it's horrible; like I said, bagging groceries is a skilled task, and I've seen employees who are really, really good at it, and fast too.

In a not too distant past, grocery stores employed people who rang up our purchases and they also employed people who bagged groceries. These openings were beneficial to the job market. In fact, grocery stores have traditionally presented a lot of opportunity to people who are developmentally disabled, and I really appreciate that.

Now if groceries want to fire those cashiers and fire those bag boys and offload the labor onto the consumer, then I am sure they will be happy to pay us double wages and/or pass the cost savings on to us in the form of lower prices across the board. Unless they simply want to ramp up their paranoia, surveillance tracking, and accusations of shoplifting at the self-checkout, especially when we dare to use our own goddamn filthy bags, what do you think?

Your problem is that you went to a pizza place that had so few customers, they were still serving their morning pies late into the day! A good pizza place should be going through several pies an hour, at least during the lunch and dinner rushes.

Direct air carbon capture refers to pulling the carbon out of the atmosphere, regardless of the process (weathering rocks, using catalysts, etc). Most processes perform better with a higher percentage of CO2 in the intake, so most could be stuck on a smokestack (or in an urban center).

Assumption that EVs are cleaner in a nutshell.

To be clear I think EVs are cleaner, but you can’t conclude that from the fact that it doesnt emit while driving. EVs just squeeze the emission event further up the supply chain where a shocking amount of people don’t see it.

Threewave CTF for Quake 1.

I can still remember Marek Dubcek (I'm probably spelling his name wrong) bragging about his performance at Duke3d or Q1, and thinking "fuck him, he's too good-looking to be better than me at a video game", and learning to use mouselook back when you had to handwrite your own config file to use mouselook without holding down Shift.

I took the WAD files for Q1 apart, ripped out all the content for the monster AI and the campaign levels and stuff, so that I could make a zip that fit on 4 1.44 floppies, carry it in my pocket, install it on demand on computers on the Cap labs (I wasn't larcenous/brave enough to compromise the network share like some other people).

You either got hit by an avalanche of bad information or prefer to remain ignorant.

What would any of us do if some innovation never happened? How does Facebook committing heavily to PHP and then giving back in the form of performance enhancements somehow tar PHP as crap? What language or framework with any longevity didn't have something like that happen? Is Javascript crap if not for Typescript, or V8?

You may not make PHP your first choice but plenty of businesses and developers do. If you can point to some actual reasons no one should choose PHP, or widespread failures due solely to flaws in PHP, go ahead.

Completely off-topic, but my 5 and 7 year old know about Kurt Cobain, Nirvana because of their song Lithium. It's played everytime the Seattle Kraken score a goal at home, and we go to lots of games as a family.

> So then tests are optional?

Yes and no. You're gonna write far fewer tests in a language like Rust than in a language like Python. In Python you'll have to write tests to eliminate the possibility of bugs that the Rust compiler can eliminate for you. I would much rather just write logic tests.

> Most bugs are elementary logic bugs expressible in every programming language.

I don't think that's true. I would expect that most bugs are around memory safety, type confusion, or concurrency issues (data races and other race conditions).
Temperature = 0
That has nothing to do with PHP. If you have .env files in your document root PHP didn't put them there or require them. Every web site back-end can expose .git directories or .env files if not configured correctly -- that has nothing to do with PHP except that way more people use PHP out of the box and don't know about these issues or how to fix them. That's analogous to way more teenagers crashing cars than more experienced drivers, but that has nothing to do with the particular cars.

> I thought whatever carbon a tree extracts during its lifetime, it releases when it decomposes.

Trees can live for hundreds of years. Guess what happens when there are more live trees.

> Unless we chop it down and store it (and plant a new tree!), the tree doesn't remove much carbon from the atmosphere (long term, on average).

But you in fact can do this. Or chop it down and make furniture or buildings out of it, which themselves can last for hundreds of years.

And even if you don't know some cost effective way to keep the dead trees from decomposing, that process itself takes decades after the tree has already grown and died, which at minimum buys us a decent amount of time to figure something out.

Careful with those motorcycles. I rode them for a while but stopped when I kept reading about deaths every day for 2 weeks.

They're fun, but damn, not worth it to me.

The cruelty potential was something I always wondered about since I first heard of this. Given how easy it is to produce, and the money to be made, there is so much incentive to cram as many civets as you can into whatever space you have for them on your coffee plantation.

I've also heard there is counterfeit civet coffee out there, which really makes you wonder what they might be doing (if anything at all) to approximate the expected characteristics of the resulting coffee beans and beverage.

This is one of those things I'd like to see tested React style with double blinded experts.
I discovered and fell in love with Japanese canned coffees when I moved to the Bay Area. There's lots of Asian markets there that carry them.

They are not great coffee nor are they bad. They're mostly just good. Boss and UCC and other brands I can't remember have options with different roasts and brews. In a sufficiently stocked store you can probably find a coffee you like.

Edit: accidentally a word
I used to buy a bunch and put them in a paper bag in the shared office fridge. I stuffed the bag in the back so no one ever disturbed it. I still dream of being able to grab one from a vending machine to get the full effect.

So many found memories of Red Alert 2 and Quake 2 playing at lan parties in the 90s.

I was lucky enough in the early 2000's where I could use my love of video games and lan parties as part of my job. I was responsible for the Flash community at Macromedia, and we would set up 4 xboxes with split screen for 8 player Halo 2 and 3 tournaments in conference rooms (which has multiple plasma screens already set up).

I quickly realized that we could use this to make friends in the broader community, so we bought a bunch of LCD monitors and pelican cases, and began to take our setup on the road to Flash conferences. During the day we would hang out at the conference, learn new programing / visual techniques and generally see super cool Flash stuff, and at night we would invite everyone over to our hotel room and then play Halo all night. We made so many friends and close contacts in the community through this, and it really help us meet a lot of people, and build strong, personal relationships.

I remember we were on a 6 week bus tour in North America doing events for Adobe AIR, and making a detour to NYC for the Halo 3 launch at at Best Buy. We then played on the bus all night long.

Here is a clip of me walking to the launch, so happy and singing about it being my Halo birthday (whatever that means!).

You fold it then you eat it.

I cannot think of a single slice shop (non-chain) in NY / NJ where you they produce pies like you describe. They are making the pizza from scratch.

They reheat the slices until they run out of a pie. Then they make a new pie and put it on the counter.

I think what you mean is that most most New York style pizza outside of greater New York area is not great. I don't know what I'd call it.

Standard fare, affordable pizza in the US is mediocre outside of the North East. But that's OK, we can't even BBQ.

The main problem is that it’s unclear if these plants are carbon negative.

They’re displacing liquid oil with an equal volume of compressed CO2 gas, so I’m guessing they are emitting way more carbon than they are capturing.

With all due respect, what I read sounds like there is a lot of faith and not enough science. For instance:

> But ignoring a technological revolution in progress will accomplish nothing.

Let's be real: this article does not prove that solar can replace fossil fuels. It has faith that it can, and believes that "anyway if that doesn't work, we're screwed, so we have to believe in it".

It merely extrapolates from the growth of solar in the last few years. That is not enough.
