If you look around this thread, you'll see plenty of people suggesting exactly that - that it's actually better to focus on carbon capture, that it's more doable than reduction etc.

The reality is just the opposite: the only option for stopping climate change is to reduce CO2 emissions completely. Now, if we were at a point where we're emitting some few tens of millions of tonnes instead of the 40B we emit today, maybe then carbon capture to help offset the last few trickles would make some sense - but not before then, not in any way shape or form.
The policy was posted around this time.

oh cool, I'm interested to see what your impressions are. Depending on your exact workflows and comfort levels, I could imagine that you either find that things are much much better, or that only moderate progress has been made.

Let us know if you're experiencing any new painpoints too, or if things like code loading aren't as fast as you had hoped, there might be things we can do to help.

I briefly looked at the code and it seems like the actual server code is just based on third-party modules (e.g. uvicorn.) There's no socket code here and barely any mention of anything related to HTTP in the library. This is more like a wrapper around existing web frameworks than anything new by itself. It seems to provide it's own routing and templating but that's it. I wouldn't call that a web framework.

What Is the Success Rate of Actively Managed Funds?
You don't need to live in poverty to live in a carbon-neutral world. The vast majority of the problem could be tackled by some reduction in the massive over-consumption and over-production of goods currently happening all over the world.
This didn't, or did it?
If we give up a bit of our snobbery on what is Computer Science, we may realize this is probably a sane starting point for a lot of students. The generation today hasn't grown up with computers like we did, most only had a cellphone which hides away even basic things like the filesystem and goes to the extreme extents to stop you from tinkering with it.

You need a foundation for you to start making sense and to connect the dots for even the basic assumptions and theories that you may come up with.

Another way to put it is you need to know numbers(or atleast a basic sense of what they are) before you do math.
You can't answer that yourself? He obviously puts the product above his need for greatness, so the product will suffer and most probably bad decisions affecting users will be made.
Forests and such are carbon neutral unless somebody goes there, cuts the trees, and crucially does something to prevent the wood from burning or decomposing for hundreds or thousands of years. That is the costly part.

> a properly fitted N95 mask is infinitely protective against an airborne virus

People keep saying "airborne" as if that's the only route of transmission, but we know there are three routes - droplets in the eyes, air that you breathe, and fomites that you eat.

Eyes and mouth are significant, and there's some evidence that these are more important than airborne transmission.

The swiss cheese model does not say "use masks, ignore the rest, you'll be okay". It says "here's a package of measures and if you use all of them you reduce the risk".

You almost answered your own question. One common solution is to have 2 nodes with haproxy (or similar) sharing a virtual IP with keepalived that load balance de traffic to the control plane nodes and to the nodes where your ingress controller runs.

There are other options, like running the haproxy in the control plane nodes.
Sure, carbon capture has a benefit to society. Society doesn't want to pay the bill though, which could be something like $90,000 per American.

That depends a lot on your environment, but I can generalize a few scenarios that are more common.

Apache Kafka for example, is an open source open-source distributed event streaming platform that, among other things, provides mechanism for data integration to ensure end-to-end data transfer.

If it is log data, Apache Flume aggregates and moves large amounts of log data efficiently. Ensures data is not lost during transfer.

Apache Spark Structured Streaming, for stream processing, it provides exactly-once semantics to guarantee data is not lost or duplicated during transfer.

Apache NiFi is another open source ETL tool that allows transferring data between systems reliably while ensuring integrity through versioning, provenance etc.

Python libraries like Fleep, Tenacity help make data transfers fault tolerant and ensure retries/rollback on failures. Integrity can be checked through hashes.

Node.js libraries, streams like StreamData allow building fault tolerant data pipelines while ensuring integrity through FlowFile handling.

Azure Data Factory provides reliable data transfer mechanisms like replication, retries, monitoring to guarantee end-to-end transfer without data loss.
That's fairly good. The sign of quality CS material requires explanations, analogies, summaries of facts, and diagrams. For example, explain pointers or C const rules to someone who only knows calculus. Most texts fail to accomplish these goals accessibly.

It maybe heresy to say, but Knuth doesn't explain concepts very well, reading more like a dense formal paper demanding a postgraduate mathematical background rather than elucidating concepts magnificently with both formal and informal terms. That's okay: subject matter experts need not be expert technical writers or lecturers. It could be the basis of another body of work by another author to write a compendium explaining and interpreting the Latin "Bible" to the masses. :)
How 'high-level' are you hoping for here? Haskell? Rust has very high abstractions, but I guess the fundamentals are based around giving you control over low level stuff, which seems like a good balance to me. I'm not sure what specifically you'd hope to do which you can't do in Rust.

Take polar bears for example. At the rate things are going, they will go extinct. On the other hand, the polar bears that are cross breeding with their cousins, the grizzly bear, are producing offspring better adapted to melting ice caps.

If we want to have better genetic diversity, it’s not going to come from reducing carbon emissions. It will be things like planting wildlife refuges in your front yard, at least poly-cropping not mono-cropping, letting landraces develop for local conditions instead of insisting on standardized produces. It’s participating within the ecology and not trying to take the entire yield and maximizing usefulness to humans. Reducing carbon emissions will not, by itself, get us there.

> bout whether or not you can go out and get a phone using one of these alternative stores, and it turns out you can.

Well no, turns out you can't. Any app you might need for basic usage (communication, banking, taxes) isn't on it.

Competition in economic terms means actual substitutes and this just ain't it. This is also reflected by their negligible marketshare close to 0%, because well, they just aren't competitors.

> You want the like to be mandatory, using the long arm of the law. I think that’s an obvious overreach.

I'm not even talking about the political solutions to this duopoly yet, just stating the facts that the competition is dead on the area, then the conclusion on how to solve this are up to debate.
People are not the only thing that travels by air.
I wonder if part of the effect is topics that are highly competitive require those who seek to study them to be 2 or 3 SD above normal to enter those fields.
Storing column numbers for every token just in case there might be an error likely weighs out the string allocation reduction. But for error messages it might suffice to output just the line number together with a snippet of the line at the error location. Most people probably don't care about the exact column number, though it might be bad for other tools.

I guess this is similar to me going to a wine store. I am readily persuaded that a good 20 euro wine is actually much more enjoyable for me than a 5 euro wine. But I get no additional enjoyment from 500 euro wine over that 20 euro wine.

So it depends where you are looking from.

If you are a ruby shop and your regular out of the box latency is in the hundreds of milliseconds which under load falls apart into at first some and then all taking seconds or tens of seconds then the BEAM is fantastic, you go down to single-double digit responses and under load the latencies start to grow but very gradually. Every request gets more or less same latency.

When you come from microsecond latencies then it looks like the BEAM is doing a lot but is mostly in your way in achieving the lowest latency possible.

Completely different problem sets which gets confused by the writer not giving the necessary context for their claim.

In the Nerves/IoT/HW space one pattern used is to use Elixir for all the soft-realtime stuff and enjoy the QoL and other benefits of the BEAM and use other tools more suitable for hard-realtime tasks.
Fair point, I only thought about the regular ones.
All the inductively excited synchronous motors described in those patents work due to including semiconductor rectifiers in the rotor.

It is likely that today this concept from more than a half of century ago can be revived at a much higher level of performance, due to the present ability of making optimized designs and due to the fact that now much better rectifiers are available, e.g. silicon carbide Schottky diodes.
You are in a minority now, the evidence is overwhelming.

Some info here:

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/Welcom...

S3 organizes objects into buckets. Buckets have unique names, and objects have unique keys. To find a specific object by key or partial key (prefix) several data structures would work. I believe under the hood S3 uses skip lists to quickly access, insert, delete objects. If you have the full key of something — like a bucket name — hashing would also work.

Obviously simplified because S3 has security, replication, versioning, and supports indexes and searching within objects, but the basic data structures and algorithms are well known and not all that complicated in principle.
Yeah but... as far as I'm aware, nobody's tried that.

I agree with that take. Being like "look at Germany, we don't need ACs" is outdated bs. I absolutely suffer for almost 2 months a year because I don't have an AC including lack of sleep etc. We will see a rise, even though some people feel like that's the wrong thing to do with the climate change.

There's a fine line: if you have green energy, why would you care? Consuming more green energy actually improves the overall situation, as more money is available to build out green energy in the first place (especially with things like Green Planet Energy). It's just the need for moral superiority for some folks that's stopping AC distribution in central Europe imho.

Not that difficult, but it’s still a separate dependency (with python requirements). If the goal here is a Caddy competitor, then IMO it’s missing the mark in terms of “one stop shop”. What’s the killer feature?
Yep, it's all just delusion that allows people to sleep night after night while contributing to the catastrophe that is climate change. But hey, if it means a few old men didn't have to change their lifestyles then it's all good, right?

Plant matter is carbon neutral unless you cut it down and find a way to stop it from burning down or decomposing for thousands of years.
I think this is most people.

People do not verify very much for themselves - they do not know 'if it is true'. They are told a story, believe that story and even call it knowledge. The story itself need have nothing to do with reality, and worse, it may have been placed there to intentionally to mislead. With a false story it is but a small hop to doing evil but calling it useful and good.

I won't give any modern examples cos of the downvotes, but think of the stories we are given of Christians destroying non-Christian cultures because they believed they were doing God's work. The principle is that their stories allowed them to believe themselves to be true, useful, good, even as they slaughtered the natives. Their culture feted them.

I think this principle of being misled by false stories holds through to today. A false story (premise/assumption) allows individuals/groups to accept a para-logic and para-morality despite the evidence of one's senses.

> We live in an era of unprecedented consumer choice.

In some ways yes, in some ways no. Markets aren't exclusively driven by consumers and such framing is incredibly naive. You can't buy the fruit that doesn't exist.
Most people on the planet would have an opinion that “having more money” is a good thing.

With lots and lots of caveats. Other people having more money isn't necessarily a good thing, having too much money isn't necessarily a good thing, getting that money in a 'wrong' way isn't necessarily a good thing, having more money only to spend it 'wrong' isn't necessarily a good thing etc. etc. Once you encode and average out all those caveats you start getting close to a system of morality that can underpin a religion.
Well I commend the Nginx team for trying something new and launching this, even though I'm not sure what I would use it for personally.

Slightly tangental, but it always irks me when I see these kinds of responses in JSON:

{
"success": "Reconfiguration done."
}

Really this should be something like "result": "success". Using "success" as a key name tells me nothing about the data it's representing.
Everything is more complex than it first seems in this industry.
Talking about quantity of CO2 in terms of volume doesn't really make sense since it's a compressible gas.

I've met many Australians, and have not experienced what you describe. If anything, coffee culture is a Melbourne thing, with Brisbane being en par. I have not heard of, say, Perth being especially known for their association with coffee drinking.

As far as I know, it is thanks to immigrants from Italy that an admittedly good and wide-spread coffee culture has established in Melbourne, but I never felt that it stood out in how Australians perceive themselves.
This appears to be related to the https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulfrich_effect where darker part of the image are processed a bit slower by the brain and movement can give effect of depth. To Scott had a video on it https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-v4LsbFc5c

There’s the worse comment, “I’m not seeing that behavior.” Those are especially helpful.

True. As a matter of fact, almost all coffee making involves machines, at least when we're talking about the espresso variety. For years, fully automatic coffee makers have been a big trend even in consumer electronics, i.e., lots of homes have machines sitting on their counter top that make all kinds of coffees at the push of a button. Why shouldn't a vending machine be able to do the same...
Came across a similar idea a few years ago: emotions are our perceptions of our bodies internal state.

Our subconscious responds to external events, releasing hormones and making other internal changes to our bodies. Whilst we can directly feel the impact of those changes (breathing rate, alertness, blood pressure, ...), like with our other senses, what we consciously pay attention to - what we "feel" - is the perception, which are our emotions.

Had several times a chat with Ethan Lee, he is perfectly aware of the technical challenges to keep game binaries working in the very close source hostile environment which is elf/linux.

BTW, I think Celeste is one of the most important games he does maintain on elf/linux.

One of the major choke points is ELF with its GNU extensions severely abused by glibc devs (and indirectly libstdc++ gcc devs and libgcc gcc devs). It is hell to generate elf/linux binaries with works on "old" distros from "recent" distros.
I more or less do the same, but using gnome and only one monitor. Most people criticize gnome without actually giving a chance to use it the way it was designed to be used. Coupled with the use of workspaces, it has significantly increased my focus (or rather, decreased my distractions)
This is not new, if you have a car with any fossil fuel motor, you likely already have a similar device: your alternator. By applying a voltage between 2 and 13 to the exciter coil, you can adjust how much is drawn from the primary winding.

No so probabilistic, but more like a linear combination of approaches maximizing for gain function and economy of scale. I can tell you with certainty planting trees is far down on the list.

At the top of the list would be strategies that utilize biological processes as the capture component of CCS. Kelp and phytoplankton robotic oceanic aquaculture seem the most obvious. Going GMO to increase yield and reduce needs for micronutrients would probably be helpful. Terrestrial CCS would look like either chemical processes or DACCS. I think the Microsoft approach has legs to it if it can be demonstrated, Omniprocessor-style.

For soil health and to combat desertification, it would be wiser to stop rain forest loss and reintroduce megafauna across the world to improve non-wooden plains / semi-wooded land.
