In Greek mythology, Pegasus was the son of Medusa. You will find a lot more references based on this.
That's true, but low query latency doesn't mean much if you have to do a full table scan for your query. Some thought still needs to be put into how the clients will query the data, so it's really not as simple as just "ship your entire database to the client and let them figure it out".

Ah, I think we're at least partially on the same page. To me, considering the consequences of my actions is just good sense, that doesn't make me an utilitarian. Utility is subjective and ordinal, not cardinal. That means you can't do math with utility, and you can't even meaningfully compare it between individuals. That's more than enough for me to disqualify Utilitarianism from being taken seriously.
If that's your target market then this would be the perfect product certainly. I was thinking more in terms of the general end consumer.
I’ve never heard of butyric acid but I’m wondering is that what gives American chocolate it’s plastic taste and even texture? Because I can’t stand it.

Even in Kraft singles…it’s like there’s this similar thing going on there. It’s different but there’s this common plastic tasting thing going on there that I can’t stand either.

I feel bad because my kid loves cooking grilled cheeses and always wants me to try them but I can’t stomach it. At the same time though…it’s so much cheaper, that I still buy it for him. I’m kind of like this with wine- like, I’m not buying the expensive stuff because I already like the cheap stuff and the last thing I’m going to do is develop more expensive tastes if the cheap thing is fine for me right now.
Over here on Linux, I tried Sublime this summer for a couple months. Compared to Kate (which has grown a lot over the years), it had a couple of better options, but about the same number of strange oddities. And then I saw what it takes to modify some of the theme choices... ay yay. Back to Kate's well-known oddities.

I know it sounds a bit absurd at first thought, but restricting the amount that can be bought at a time actually works for preventing overdosing. People are just less likely to swallow 12 500 mg tablets in one time than 6 1g tablets.
> Guys, it was very common for (side-)projects to self host a forum in the 2000s, what changed since then so that many people find this unreasonable

I greatly prefer forums to ephemeral IRC or walled-garden Discord/Slack/etc. However I don't like the moderation time commitment, especially with in a climate of aggressive spambots and twitter-style idiocy at scale.

I also like blog comments, but those seem to have largely split into spam-filled cesspools on one hand and "comments are now closed" (after 10ms) on the other. HN is something of an exception, but I'm sure it requires aggressive and time-consuming moderation.

Constant security threats also make self-hosting an ongoing maintenance headache even if it's in the cloud.

Panda3D is probably the best proper game engine in Python, unfortunately. Python as an interpreted language tends to have large performance costs for games, and python hasn't been too popular as a scripting language buit on top of engine code (studios love to use python for tools, though).

> most EU countries (and especially its founding and early members) do not have separation strictly along judicial/legislative/executive boundary lines

1. Let's not count the UK because it's the earliest democracy, and also is the messiest one (no written Constitution...) and also it's not the earliest or current member of the EU.

2. What exactly is an 'executive parliament'? My understanding is that in parliamentary democracy, the parliament chooses the executive, but the executive powers lie solely with the executive (government), and the parliament in itself does not have any direct executive function. It can only legislate, not execute. Certainly that's the case for Germany and Central European parliamentary systems I know a little bit more of. Might be different in the US but we are talking about the EU now.

Sure, but as you said in the end a carbon tax sounds more like a wealth redistribution scheme than something that helps with climate change.

If you give more money to the less well off, they'll just polute/consume more. Meanwhile the well offs will still consume as much and just pay a bit more for it.

Or you make it potent enough, but then it will only effectively affect the less well off. Unlikely to be popular.

Ultimately, it feels like you need a non-linear carbon tax, but it sounds unfeasible to implement.

I agree that the discord centralization for Q&A is becoming problematic, it makes it less discoverable and searchable (Had this problem a lot with Svelte).

That said, I have had success so far using https://www.answeroverflow.com/ to search discord for questions. It sucks we have to use such tools, but given the current situation, it's also better to adapt.
So just use a starter kit. Why do people put so much importance on "out of the box experience"? Who actually cares? Out of the box only matters if you can't change what you get from the box. But you can. That's the entire point of emacs.

Emacs is the way it is because it's almost 40 year old software that still tries not to break users' configs. Do VS Code users even have configs? Most of them seem to just lap up whatever is dished out to them.

Do succint trees like https://arxiv.org/pdf/1601.06939.pdf solve the same problems that stack monoids solve? I'll take some more time to fully digest the contents of this family of problems, but on first glance they seem closely related, with the input Balanced Parentheses being precisely the "BP" succint tree representation. I'm not sure of it, but from my understanding it seems probable that building the succint tree can be parallelised.

The infrastructure has to be sized to handle the peak bandwidth rather than the average bandwidth though. From what I've read backhaul capacity tends to be the limiting factor now. 10GBPS backhaul only provides 5000 x 100 Mbps connections at 50:1 home internet contention ratios. There's a reason you see cell towers on the top of most of the taller buildings walking around an urban area. More towers mean that bandwidth is shared among fewer people.

To get another read on the ratio there are "142,100 cell towers and 452,200 outdoor small cell nodes" in the US. That works out at one cell tower per 2300 people. https://www.lightreading.com/digital-infrastructure/us-cell-...

The Starlink satellites reportedly have 20 Gbps of bandwidth, half of which will be backhaul. http://www.satmagazine.com/story.php?number=1026762698

You're not wrong, which is why for me longevity is only one of the factors that goes into my book select - but it is a big one.

The thing is, we have so much brilliant art and literature available that you need to filter it somehow. The likelihood that something released this year is better than something that has been heralded and great for 100 years is very, very low. Not impossible, mind you. I've definitely read modern books that have had a huge impact on me (including, ironically, Taleb, who introduced me to the Lindy effect), and art and music have a certain cultural context that can make modern expressions more relevant.

That call happened around the time when the opposition, the government, the EU and Russia were negotiating the "Agreement on settlement of political crisis in Ukraine"[1].

The gist of the agreement was that the opposition candidate would become prime minister and Yanukovych would remain president until the elections (which didn't materialize because he fled the country).

Note that there was no US at the table. Nuland and Pyatt weren't "orchestrating" anything. In fact, they were frustrated that the US wasn't participating in the talks, hence the "fuck the EU" in that call.

All this leak shows is that US officials were trying to influence negotiations to which they weren't invited.

Direct solar with no batteries at all is fairly impractical with today's devices.

That's because most devices use constantly varying amounts of power. For example a washing machine might use 1500 watts while heating, 150 watts while spinning, and 5 watts while filling with water. With no storage, you need to have available for it the whole 1500 watts it requires (otherwise the machine will power off). Yet the whole time it's using 5 watts you're wasting 1495 watts.

The vast majority of solar inverters don't even support non-battery non-grid powering of AC devices because of this problem - it ends up being hugely wasteful of solar area.

Near-Storagless off grid setups could be done with small amounts of batteries to even out said peaks and troughs in load. If you want to buy one, they're normally sold as 'hybrid' inverters. Even a tiny battery is enough if you have logic to, for example, turn appliances like fridges, car chargers , or air conditioners off or on based on power availability.

It's interesting from the perspective of historiography. But it's not relevant in the way the Bible, Quran or the Gita are.

This was my point. And in the context of TFA, it's not Lindy.

It wasn't an effective instrument for propaganda. The book became popular because of Hitler, not the other way round.

Imagine if current IC cars were like this.

If you have a BMW, Ford and Honda you can only buy Shell gas, if you drive a Tesla only AMCO, and if you drive a Daimler you can only go to Sinclair.

Not because the fuel is any different, not because the cars are any different, but because the nozzle is a different size and none of the gas stations take cash or card, you can only pay via their in house, poorly coded, unreliable apps.

No wonder people are struggling to adopt electric cars. If gas cars were this way I would have stopped driving years ago.

Not a subway rider, and I hate another form of lazy loading: webstore filters. You go to buypc.com, pc parts / ram, check 16GB box, it starts loading. Later you check 8GB (it starts loading), uncheck 16GB, it starts loading again, check “2x kits”. As you may have guessed already, it starts loading. You see the page and want to scroll it, but the second load finishes and the content changes. Then the third. If you want to filter a list by a handful of parameters, there will be almost the same amount of loads and re-renders, all insanely latent. A cherry on top - every time you check a box, load completion routine scrolls the page back to the top, so you miss a couple of clicks and check wrong checkboxes.

The irony is that a full category list in json format that could be instantly filtered at the client side would be smaller in size than a couple of jpegs they serve with each product card. And that would make their servers rpm literally an order of magnitude less.

> This is a mathematically perfect way to judge

Only if you're using a very particular and honestly circular-sounding definition of "good".

Some deviations are more important than others, even if you're looking at deviations that take the same amount of data to correct.

Think about film grain. Some codecs can characterize it, remove it when compressing, and then synthesize new visually matching grain when decompressing.

Let's say it takes a billion bytes to turn the lossy version back into the lossless version.

The version with synthetic film grain still needs a billion bytes or maybe even slightly more bytes, even if the synthetic grain is 95% as good as real grain. The cost to turn it lossless is the wrong metric.
(For others)

It's the substrate, they're trying to write in fluid, with no "paper".
