Not sure where the author is getting their ventilation rates. ASHRAE 62.2* says

"4.1.1 Total Ventilation Rate. The total required ventilation rate (Qtot) shall be as specified in Table 4-la (I-P) or 4-1b (SI) or alternatively calculated using Equation 4-la (I-P) or 4-1b (SI).

Qtot = 0.03 Afloor + 7.5(Nbr + 1)" (in I-P)

Where Afloor is the floor area and Nbr is the number of bedroom. A 2000 square foot 3 bedroom house would be 90cfm or ~45L/s.

Good for him. I’d love to see more creators taking this route.
While you can make this argument about literally anything, it seems apt to make it about a multi-billion dollar company chasing a trillion dollar company.

It's fine to support them while they are the underdog and are saying and doing the right thing, but don't pretend like they will say and do the right thing forever.

Well, this gets a bit heavy and is an area I have only modest familiarity with and not all that much practice.

That concept of infinite dimensional meters per infinite dimensional seconds doesn't work. With infinite dimensions that the whole idea of metrics breaks down. This gets used as a tactic: If you want to present some basic spatial concept without defining and then being bound to a specific metric then you might use infinite dimensional spaces for that since they are free of traditionally considered metrics.

This is rather exotic territory. The vast majority of phenomena that people find interesting can be characterized using eight or fewer dimensions.
> Bribing implies an illegal act. Giving money in exchange for goods and services is completely normal: I don't bribe a restaurant for food. Exclusivity is just a way of competing for games, a sign of a good competitive market.

It doesn't have to be illegal, merely immoral.

> Kickstarter is kickstarter. Half of them probably don't fulfill all their promises. That's the risk you're taking, and why it's not a preorder.

I don't expect them to finish a project when i back them. I expect them to deliver my fucking GoG key when they finish the project and ask me what do I want it on and i say GoG! I don't expect them to say "Epic paid us a ton of money and you can get it on their gacha financed store".

True story. So long, Julian Gollop.

> Epic don't have gambling. They've even removed gambling from Rocket League after purchasing them too.

They're free to play. That means the game is designed to keep you playing forever and keep you buying IAPs. It is not designed to entertain you.
The article assumes buildings are air sealed. Which... they typically are not, even without considering things like operable windows. Real world C02 levels will be lower than calculated at that ventilation rate. As we chase down ever more efficiency gains with insulation and modern materials, you end up with buildings that are substantially more air-sealed.

That said, I've long thought, even pre-COVID, that prescribed ventilation rates ARE too low for my preference. One of the problems though is you end up conflicting with energy requirements. You have to heat, cool, and sometimes humidify/dehumidify any outside air to match the inside conditions. If outside air makes up a significant fraction, the energy use can be enormous.
That was such a good game. Also RIP Telltale Games.

Sure, it's less testable BUT in the specific case at hand it's all mutations that need to be performed in a specific sequence. IMO if you are taking an object through a specific set of states, you either split that and use types to mark the transitions (bakePizza takes a RawPizza and returns a BakedPizza, enforcing the order of calls at compile time) or you write one big function because it doesn't make sense to create a pizza and then not bake it before you box it.

I obviously prefer the former for readability, correctness, and testability etc. However, in most PL changing the type of an object involves creating a new object and has a runtime cost. For hot code path, it makes sense to mutate in place, but in that case it's better to keep it all in one linear function.
I don't understand this widespread sentiment at all. If the dogma-idea is right, it's right. No matter how dogmatic the people who are defending it are.

Any product can end up no longer having work done on it, or the work can start getting bad. Such is life. With open source at least you have an option, if you run into one bug or missing feature, there is a chance you can patch it yourself and get the game done. In the distant past I wanted to use Unity and ran into a breaking bug in the particle system that wasn't fixed for at least 2 years, if ever.
But without the option to continue development. In the case of Godot, the rest of the community would probably fork it and continue development.

Apple solves this problem well! Note that I use iCloud family which allows me to share the storage with my family. But for going down the list:

A) Mint for most financials. iCloud for storage of documents.

B) Apple Health for keeping track of my records. For ad-hoc stuff I use iCloud to store the documents.

C) Product and service info I use iCloud for. Logins and credentials to them are stored in my family's 1Password vault.

D) All legal documents stored on iCloud.

E) For photos and videos I use iCloud Shared Albums. It's unlimited free online storage of photos. Otherwise it's a mix of iCloud storage and the Notes app on Apple devices.

Obviously you can tell I'm deep in the iCloud ecosystem but personally I feel it's worth it. The synchronization and ease of use for my family is well worth it. For what it's worth I'm on the 200GB plan.
Unfortunately not, they're mostly on a downward trend (I'm sure the war and Russian interference doesn't help, but it is what it is).

Agree. Furthermore if you are going to split it, you want to make sure no one boxes a raw pizza because they added a bad switch statement or something, as that would be clearly bad. So if you want a split version than you should use types to mark the transitions between states.

boxPizza should take a CookedPizza, and BakePizza should take a RawPizza and return a CookedPizza etc.

Well the training as I remember it is not really about how to fix your attitude, it is about how to avoid this gotcha. The thing is, opposing counsel would never be allowed to ask a deponent to draw a conclusion of law in a deposition. If they asked you do you think such and such thing is anticompetitive, your lawyer will object and you won’t have to answer. But, if you had emailed your pal at work and volunteered that you think something is anticompetitive, that’s admissible, even though you still aren’t qualified to draw that conclusion. Then at trial they will say “Google knew this was anticompetitive!” even though the member of the organization who “knew” this was a probationary sys admin.

When one actually suspects that something is anticompetitive, subverts the privacy policy, or is against the law, the done thing is to go talk to an attorney. Either product counsel inside the company if you are just curious or concerned in good faith, or your own attorney if you think the company is acting in bad faith.
> The more clients, the more chances that any will leave. That's called variance, aka, risk.

The less clients you have, the worse impact it can have if you lose the contract with one of them or the client downsizes.

Say you run an agency that has only a few clients, and (almost) all of them are automotive... and then covid hits, leading to budget cuts in the entire sector as the carmakers can't sell cars because they don't have chips to make them with. Now, you're fucked unless you have iron-clad contracts with fixed minimal spending amounts or retainers which is a rarity in the business. This happened here in Germany and it was an awful time.

And now you run the same agency, but have a multitude of small, medium and large clients, among different industries... so what if your 1, 2 automotive clients cut their budget, you just call up the other clients and ask them "hey, we have a bit of capacity left, wanna do <X>?".
It might be worth separating out the parts like the Bill of Rights from the more organizational pieces like the Presidential system and the Electoral College. Some of those pieces are “old as man” and others are the best ideas anyone had in the 18th century.

In particular, the Presidential system has failed badly in almost every non-US country it’s been tried in, because it’s inherently unstable when there is a forceful President and polarized political parties. It may be failing us today in the US. https://delong.typepad.com/linz_perils_presidencialism.pdf
Really dumb people don't know that they are really dumb. Dumb people know that they are dumb. Below average people think they are average. Average people think they are smart. Smart people know they are smart but not highly intelligent. Highly intelligent people think they are geniuses (including in all possible fields). Geniuses, real honest-to-goodness geniuses, know that they are smart in many ways but mostly dumb.

I cannot prove it, but this is how I think it is. For the record, I think I am smart; however, because of the Iron Rule of Intelligence above, it is equally possible that I am only average.

When I bought a good CO2 monitor I have discovered how difficult it is to keep CO2 levels down in an apartment that does not have two permanently open windows on two sides of the building.

For example, the most surprising thing I have discovered is that just keeping the window open IS NOT ENOUGH.

In my location, it is common for the outside temperature to be lower than room temperature at night but higher than room temperature during the day.

There obviously is some time in the morning / evening where the temperature inside and outside is exactly the same. At this time, the air stops flowing in and out of the apartment, even if you have the windows wide open. The CO2 starts accumulating at a very high rate pretty much as if the windows were closed.

I was very surprised by the graph showing large spikes up to 1500ppm in the morning while I was asleep. I was suspecting it is causing me to feel poorly in the morning and I started to feel much better when I started to sleep in a room with also the door open so that the air can freely flow through entire apartment.
That is correct. I’m not arguing with that. Russia has all the processes to sell their resources efficiently.

(the only exception wasn't a tool: print out of all the code to physical paper and then we all went into a meeting room to review for several hours - this was the best type of code review for finding things wrong, but it was also extremely expensive so I've only done that once in my life)
Seems to me, the bit where all these game frameworks get a bit tricky is when you want to target iOS. Apple keeps moving the goalposts (you must use some version of Xcode, or you must target some version of iOS) and so the open-source frameworks have to constantly faff about to support the latest apple things. A few years ago I was building using LibGDX which used RoboVM to target iOS but then Xamarin bought RoboVM and shut it down and etc etc etc...

What Unity offers is a solid way to build cross platform and target iOS. They're able to offer that because they have the resources to keep up with iOS. Open-source alternatives understandably struggle to keep on the iOS treadmill.

AES and SHA-3 sharing one contributor isn't exactly the same situation.

To be honest maintaining bindings for a whole library is kind of a bear, so many people who do this tend to stick to the most used high-level interfaces. Even for my library, which has fewer than 50 functions.

If you use a sufficiently narrow subset, my advice would be to do your bindings yourself. It’s thankless work, but it’s work you control, and you’ll be able to tailor your side to your liking.

I scan all documents and paper mail and store the scans in a git annex repo with a few replicas on machines I own or rent. Originals go into binders, ordered by the hash of the document. With a few helper scripts and OCR with Tesseract searching through my documents is surprisingly fast, so is adding new documents at the proper place in the binders. The idea behind ordering by sha1 of the scan was that the binders would be storage only and all categorizing and organizing should be digital, and also that as I add more documents load balancing between the binders is trivial: at the moment I have one binder for hash prefixes 0-7 and one for 8-f, with a divider for each one-hex-digit prefix. If I ever feel there are too many docs per divider I can split further.

Emails go into a plain git repo, and photos go into another git annex repo.

Ideally I’d like to put all of that into Perkeep because I like the idea of just throwing anonymous blobs into a bucket with the possibility to organize and tag them after the fact, but it looks like that project is dead and I would need to add a few things to it to support my use cases.

I store a lot of scans and emails I won’t ever need again. I just consider that storage becomes cheaper faster than my storage needs increase, and that storing extra documents and saving myself the need to decide whether it’s worth keeping, is a good tradeoff.
