I have a Nortek HUSBZB-1 model; got at the end of 2021. Never had to do anything to it. About 44USD now.

I chose it through reading community posts and such. One specific recommendation I took to heart was to put it on a USB port extending cable, so it is away from the electronics.
Cool, did not know that, last time I seriously used MobX was on 2016 primitives. But I see it works similarly to before. All of the accesses will be figured out during the first render.

Observer component is so simple. Just a deferred function invoke. Could have been done with 2016 primitives too.

> Nuclear already isn't competitive.

Because we're still burning fossil fuels. It's hard to compete when your opponent is cheating.

> Also, nuclear isn't completely reliable either. Plants do go down. Spare capacity is still needed.

That's what multiple plants are for, ideally of heterogeneous design.

> something like gas

If gas (as in fossil methane) is part of our long-term future, then we are quite screwed. Maybe it's viable with carbon sequestration, but that's unproven technology. The other options you listed will be required to make renewables 99.999% reliable.

It has serious limitations and needs a lot of elbow grease to run at scale. With some of the alternatives (for example MongoDB) you basically just add a few more machines and you are good.

In my opinion Citus is still only a hack which is only useful if for some reason you can't move away from Postgres but you have reached the limit of what you can get out of a single machine.

The only thing that actually matters is private investment (and government can help make that attractive). Provide tax credits or loan guarantees for new energy investments (the bipartisan Inflation Reduction Act is a good step).

My advice for Mr. Bloomberg? Take this money and start a public investment company, anyone can join him and invest, and he takes every bit of the money and starts installing windmills and solar. Use the proceeds to install even more.

If he put out some long term contracts for windmills parts he could dramatically boost manufacturing[1].

To my knowledge, most modern Linux systems use MPRIS over D-Bus to support hardware media controls. You'll want to find some form of software driver or bridge that detects the Apple protocol and translates it to the native Linux one.

It's interesting that it's not supported out-of-box, though. My Jabra and Sony headsets both have perfectly fine media control on Linux, even my old Earpods too if memory serves...

>> Again, all of this debate would be easy to end with a controlled trial that non-profits like Verra will never do because of what they would reveal.

I think most debates could be ended with a scientific experiment - likely never going to happen due to the inconvenience of it.

I learned to code in the 8-bit days where you'd count to 1000 in a BASIC for loop to create a significant delay. I guess I've not got out of the mindset that doing anything 1000x is quite a lot (particularly when you're aiming to do it 60 or more times per second).

But as somebody working in Unity (and often on mobile), there's still many cases where 1000 of something is a lot, and should perhaps be cause to rethink your approach. For example 1000 draw calls, 1000 UI elements, 1000 instances of even the most simple prefab.

1000 raycasts per frame is also something that I'd try to avoid. But if they seemed important, you've just got to try it and profile it. Nobody can answer 'what is the cost of 1000 raycasts?' without a fair bit more information.
I fly back and forth from the EU to the US and I've flown multiple times in business or first, and to this day I have no idea what the difference is between the two. If they charge more for one than the other, then I'd really like to know what they're charging for.

I maintain a few JavaScript libraries that I manually verify compatibility against IE6 (and have lints to catch violations). I manually polyfill a few necessities and quality-of-life improvements up top in the script. Out of curiosity, I removed my polyfills and tried swc and babel both, followed by an eslint pass, and the results were absolutely atrocious. Everything gets polyfilled, even stuff that has been supported in every IE version ever. The usage-based detection is completely borked, and is completely based off string searching property/function names. Using toString() anywhere pulls in the polyfills for Date to string, Regex to string, and Object to string. Using regex anywhere pulls in a bunch of regex polyfills. It was a nightmare and the size of my library increased by orders of magnitude!

(I tried opening an swc issue about optionally using typescript ast info (via a plugin, not in swc core) to have more correct usage-based polyfill detection, but that was closed as unlikely to be acted upon.)
I'm not even sure how Mexico manages to dig itself out. The only way to root out the cartels seems to just hope that the US figures out how to manage its drug market.

So India should just accept being called a murderer without evidence, and expulsion of its diplomat as well as Trudeau’s clear support to Khalistanis in Canada.

I don’t think so.

The onus is on Canada to provide evidence, not on India. Remember, innocent until proven guilty - or would you like that legal principal to be changed?

Secondly, I’ll say that silence is an admission of guilt. India is daring Trudeau to show evidence or retract.

All Hue lights have this option. You can select different power-on behaviours. "Power loss recovery" is the setting you are describing. It stays off if it was off, and turns back on if it was on.

The default is "Warm white, full brightness", probably mostly to avoid confused people sending back bulbs because they flipped the switch ON and the bulb remained dark. Since traditionally that meant a failed bulb.
> Unfortunately, at big firms the resume robots filter out plenty of great candidates simply because they lack ITIL or some other kind of useless cert. They don't get a chance to show off what they know.

Fair enough.

If someone it doing it satisfy a bureaucratic machine, I'll suspend judgement. If they think that makes them actually better than someone who actually does the thing, hard pass. It's usually pretty easy to tell where people fall based on their general behavior.

I don't care about who someone is, or where they to school. I care about what they can do. Certs don't show any of that.

does mongodb support ACID transactions? I think this is one of the key question in making decision.

> Isn't each individual airline is itself a command economy, internally?

The difference is that airlines, no matter how large they are, have to deal with the reality via market forces. So there's a feedback mechanism that will eventually point out if your commands are correct.

Command economies (or sectors of economies) don't have such a mechanism, so they can stay inefficient forever.

This article can't really be understood unless you know that Visa/Mastercard take a 2-3% cut from all sales in the US. They redistribute some of that with these points-programs.

The good thing about Maven is it is XML so everyone wants to keep it as short as possible ;-)

(More seriously: with Maven shorter and more boring is a sign that everything is correctly configured. Maven works by the convention over configuration principle so if you don't configure something it means it follows the standard. Which again means if you see someone has configured for example a folder or something that usually isn't configured it means they have put something in a non standard location.)

One time at a deli sandwich type of store, the way the clerk phrased the question caught my attention: “What name would you like us to call when your order is ready?” She didn’t ask for my name, rather what name should they call out. My kids were embarrassed when I replied “Harvey” (that’s not my name). About ten minutes later some friends walk into the place, see me, and come over to say hello. Just then, the clerk shouted “Harvey, your order is ready”. My friends were really baffled when I stood up and went to fetch it.
If you're worried strictly about profits, and not a strong desire to avoid CO2 emissions, we can imagine a carbon tax. $100 per ton would cost a coal plant 10¢/kWh on top of operating costs. So if a carbon-free source gets even close for operating costs, then that's a lot of money to fund a backup plant and still come out ahead.

And this doesn't really require a tax. We could imagine an electrical company pricing out their aversion to carbon in cents per kWh out of their own volition or because of customer demand.

That framing makes a lot of sense, and does help square the difference between the "satellite imaging of Wal-mart parking lots" and "trading on intel you got working bizdev at a tech company".

It's funny how often "we'll trade equities on the information we generate as a byproduct" comes up --- always briefly --- as a tech company business model. Like, I've non-ironically been involved in companies that had that premise, and then "real" business always swamps the "we'll trade on it" intentions.
It will seem even stupider once computers can convincingly do all the "intelligent" things better than us.

Some multiplayer network games memoise the game state. When an input event arrives from a remote player it is applied to the game state that existed at the time of the event. Then the state is fast-forwarded to the present time and the game continues. Ideally you shouldn't notice this happening.
