I've heard the waiting list isn't so much a waiting list but a dreaming list. The waiting list is for people who dream of being a live aboard. You can call and they will put your name on a list. In our case we steamed into the marina on a modern catamaran, basically looking like we're dripping with money. The dock master wants to be able to vet you and a new, modern boat is far fewer problems than an older boat.

Where I live the marinas have a problem with derelict boats. The owners buy them for cheap and then abandon them and go no-contact once the repairs get too high. So now the marina is stuck with $20k+ disposal. Financially, boats don't make sense so if you approach the marina as a live aboard trying to save money (LOL!) they will see right through it and imagine the headache you're going to be.
Whenever I read comments like this I have to chuckle. The US state department spends 300m$ each year in anti-china propaganda. The capitalist comprador narrative sellers eager to jump on the bandwagon. When one reads US military think-tank papers explaining the next strategies and then, years later, seeing them being implemented, makes one really wonder, how organically the reporting is on things like Xinjiang. But of course, when you question the narrative of iraqy WMDS, incubator killings, the usage of ABCs by the US and then finally on the question of what really is happening in Xinjiang, one really shows their bias...
My general advice, not related only to Georgian wines, would be to seek small (boutique) producers in a mid-range ($15-30) category.

I can name a few good brands available in the US: Orgo, Baia's Wine, Rosha Winery (one of my favourite red wines).

Technically Epic does too, but consumers still hate them.
It's right there in the comment... "(Many are not even targeting LTS, but that's a separate issue)"
Consumers don't know or care about IPv6, so competition won't incentivize ISPs to implement it.

Funny that you complain about Comcast, when I was with Comcast I actually had native IPv6. With my current provider I only have IPv6 through NAT46.
Yes. They are causing negative externalities without exposure to the costs. Why would we collectively not force them to internalize the costs of their requirements? Pay up.

Tangentially, it is sort of fun to potentially wield capitalist economic mechanisms against poor human decisions powered by hierarchical social power structures causing detriment to physical systems. Not all hacks require code (although, one could consider statute and executive branch rule making a form of code processed by the legal system I suppose).
The "cannot escape IPv4" is apt because while you can setup an IPv6 only VPC so many things break; from various AWS services to package repositories [0]. So then you're stuck either enabling IPv4 or running a NAT64 gateway (or trusting someone to run one for you [1]).

You’re entirely missing the context of what you call “alarmist talk”.

The issue isn’t that the water will cease to exist, or that the planet will literally be destroyed. It is that our way of life is unsustainable and actively degrades the future quality of life for us in the future (and our children).

You can compare our mindless pumping of water from the ground to the ignorant farming practices that lead to the dust bowl. If we don’t use our knowledge to take steps to avoid running out of usable water by using it less and more intelligently now, we will come to a hard point in the future.

Which takes cooperation and empathy for everyone’s situations and the overall reality in front of us.

Yes, because it's an Atkinson cycle engine so the engine efficiency is much better, and also because normal car alternators are absurdly inefficient; about 50% or so, I think. The Prius's motor-generator is more like 90%+ efficient.

The Prius's motor-generator might not be able to run at 100% duty cycle, but they're tens of kilowatts max output so you'd need a pretty big load.

Many car alternators also won't run at full load for very long, and can only do about 2kW, so definitely a risk. Either the windings overheat, or the voltage regulator will. They're sometimes thermally regulated, but not always. You can sort of band-aid it with forced cooling to supplement the centrifugal fan on them.
This is pretty easy to figure out by looking at grid energy use. I think a lot of producers make that public info. Not sure there was much impact.
It helps that they aren't beholden to shareholders and the "value" of showing unlimited growth. You'll never see enshitification there. They're a group of creators who want to create. Sometimes they slip up, but it's no more than anyone else would.
Training AI feels inherently commercial with intent to commercially distribute, which seems to be licensed specially in most domains.

In a sense it's like driving down the highway with a duffel bag of cannabis flower in a state where possessing and traveling with few ounces is no problem--something commercial is probably happening. Why is that prohibited? Perhaps another debate, but just trying to connect the implied intent aspect.

If an AI were being trained for strictly academic reasons then I'd agree with fair use and that type of arguments. But if the AI itself has a subscription fee, then whoever is subscribing is also probably using the work for real or anticipated commercial gain. Hence investing money.

True that hobbyists spend money with no intention to gain commercially, and we may do that at a higher than average rate as tech workers because we have usually have a decent amount of excess money from our work. But money is pretty scarce to most people and businesses with set non-investment budgets, so if they're spending it on AI there's little doubt it's with commercial intent.

So in conclusion, I do think there's both merit to the authors' case related to intent to commercialize and room for doing unlicensed non-commercial AI training.
The main problem with movies now is the price. For movie theaters to really do well, you need to make it possible for a group of suburban teenagers to buy tickets and snacks with whatever money they get from babysitting or lawn mowing or whatever suburban teenagers do for spending money.

That's not equivalent. Notably if you have a `&[u8]` you can't transmute it to `&[E]`. It's also noisy when you have the enum as part of a larger struct, and can make encoding/decoding very verbose.
I've reached the same conclusion with Jenkins. It also helps if you ever have to port between CI systems.

A CI "special" language is almost by definition something that can't be run locally, which is really inconvenient for debugging.
Depends on… well, everything, but towing a 1-tonne trailer up a long hill is far more taxing on a car’s cooling system than this. I’d expect any decent car to be designed to handle continuous running at peak torque, if not peak power.

(Why peak torque? Because that’s peak efficiency, for petrol engines at least. Makes sense if you think about it.)

Rebuilding at every stage shouldn't be too bad, with pinned dependencies. I can see problems with it, of course. That said, using a private code publishing location seems the correct path? That isn't too difficult to setup, is it?

That said, I'm still not clear on what difficulties folks are worried about. I'm also not clear I care on the mess of commits getting things working. The initial commits of getting anything working are almost always a mess. Such that worrying about that seems excessive.

The point is that you only have to do it once, when defining the object. Everything else then happens via the From and Into implementations, which the compiler will generally be smart enough to inline. So it'll be just as efficient as working on the underlying u8.
Perhaps part of the situation is that with all the magnificent technology available, it is hard not for governments to do good for the citizens, even accidentally. After all, even if you were the most corrupt and self-centered individual to hold the title of 'President', you'd still probably order a road be built anyway, and that road will still improve citizens' lives at least on an economical level.

Or...we could cut out the victim blaming and reams of assumptions about just how awful and irresponsible the poor guy who dies was, and do what's actually being suggested, and require purveyors of these map apps to review and appropriately handle reports send to them of problems in a reasonable amount of time.

That's it. That's all that's being asked here.

Google was informed, from what I understand, multiple times over the course of two years that this route was no longer valid, and did nothing. Either they chose to ignore those reports, or the departments that should handle them are understaffed and they need to be mandated to hire more people there. (Just another instance where "we can't possibly employ enough people to make this healthy and still make a profit!" is not a response that we should be willing to accept.)
I've kind of been thinking that there needs to be an open source version of Yodlee/Plaid. I keep picking up some project like Paisa and then realise that I have to figure out how to import things automatically. I don't really have the patience to do it manually.

I read "gearbox" as, well, an automotive gearbox, which would hardly be surprising in the context of the article.

2:1 could easily mean crank the gearbox into a gear that approximately produces that ratio.

> You've tried to inject something on your own accord for possibly a misunderstanding??

WTH is that supposed to mean? If I misunderstood anything it was a honest mistake. GP suggested a RPM reduction for fuel efficiency reasons, it would be counterproductive to offset that efficiency gain with a high-loss mechanical device. There was neither ill intent nor hidden agenda.
Yeah that's happened to me as well but is useful for throwaways
One of my favorite examples: my Dad worked at a F100 company, and they moved a large group of employees to a new office building. That office building was taxed in a special "opportunity zone" that gave the employer tax credits while the employees got stuck with a new higher local income tax.
A high powered alternator and a carbureted engine with mechanical timing and nothing else on the engine but a starter, exhaust, flywheel, and cooling seems ideal.

Something like this: https://www.powerbastards.com/proddetail.asp?prod=Fitzall-22...

That way you can set the starter idle for high RPMs to get the system up to speed with the resistance from the alternators and then set the idle speed at the ideal speed for the alternator to produce the most power.

But even on a 4 cylinder engine you're going to have horsepower to spare, so you may want multiple alternators wired in series with beefy transfer bars, so build a custom mounting plate for as many as it takes to almost bog down the engine at 1200 rpm or so.

These $350 alternators produce 220 amps at 14.6 volts at 1200 rpm, or 3200 watts each. I imagine you could run at least 3 of them on a properly set up 4 cylinder engine. That's getting close to 10 kilowatts of power before conversion and you would probably still not be taxing the system.

On the other hand, at this point you've spent $2,000 or so and a month of backyard engineering time to build an 8000 watt generator when you can buy a 13,500 watt generator at lowes for $1,300 dollars.

If you have a good motor you can run on a stand and a bunch of cheap or free alternators, then you just need the mounting system and inverter. Typical alternators put out about 40-80 amps, or 580-1200 watts. That at least has a chance of being cheaper.

They are just being realistic, their example isn’t extreme (though yours is).

I can immediately see if the config is being requested, which system requests it, what are the metadata of the request, etc. I can do conditional rollout of a configuration based on runtime data. I can reset the configuration to a know-good failsafe default without asking for approval with a break-glass button. I can schedule a rollout and get a reviewer for the config change.

IME the feature flag interface is next to perfect for runtime configuration. I don't care for intended usage at all. You could say feature flags have found a great product-market fit, just that a segment of the market is a bit unexpected but makes perfect sense if you think about it.

You're right that the best Brake Specific Fuel Consumption (BSFC) occurs at higher loads. If anyone wants to see a map of this, search for "brake specific fuel consumption map". More modern engines might actually have their peaks closer to 3000RPM due to improved technology. The trend is toward smaller engines that rev higher, so peak efficiency is steadily shifting to the right.

However, it probably doesn't matter due to the extreme mismatch between the engine's output and the generator's maximum power.

The generator appears to be rated at 5500W, which is 7.4HP. Efficiency of electrical generators is high, so we'll call the load 8HP maximum.

An Toyota Sienna engine has a peak power output around 200HP.

For reference, a car air conditioning system might consume around 4HP, or half of this generator's load. The generator is barely more than running the air conditioning.

So ideally, you'd pick a set of pulleys that let the engine basically idle. The goal is to minimize internal engine losses at this level, because you're nowhere near the peak efficiency islands on the BSFC map.

I don't think you've understood my comment. I didn't say my political opinions were better or more neutral.

I criticized the term for making predictions about the future into an assumption about present reality. We can't call the present time "late stage capitalism" because we don't know what will happen in the future. It's a criticism of fortune-telling, not of a particular political stance.

"Late" is a descriptor of past events, not of future ones. The Late Roman Empire already happened. We are looking back on it. We can't do that with capitalism, because we are still in the midst of it.

> I'm old enough to remember when "Cable TV" meant "no advertisements."

You must be infinitely old then, because "Cable TV" at its inception had ads. Cable TV was originally just bundling all the local stations, and it was like that for thirty years. So the first thirty years of cable had ads. Even most of the first few cable-only TV stations had ads. The second cable-only TV station, WTBS, had ads. Nickelodeon, ESPN, CNN, USA, all had ads from their start and were some of the very first cable-only TV stations.

From your very own link, Figure 1 shows a very clear drop in poverty rate across the last 30 years for all regions except North Africa & the Middle East, even the global trend shows a clear decline. Quote:

> It is still the case that global poverty has been falling since the 1990s, and at a slower rate since 2014

There is no distinct trend line for the U.S.A., but it seems like it is part of the "Other High Income" group, which is hovering around the 0.5% mark. Your citation:

> This revision represents 11 million more people living in extreme poverty, largely driven by South Asia (5 million) and the Middle East and North Africa (4 million).

Is comparing 2022/2023 data to 2019, which is clearly less than a single generation difference, let alone two.

Looking at the article's cited source, <https://www.worldbank.org/en/publication/poverty-and-shared-...>, the overview shows a massive drop from roughly 50% in 1980 to a mere 9.3% in 2020 (TBF, up from 8.4% in 2019).

Yes, the pandemic did cause a rise in poverty, but the rate is projected to recover. And even despite the pandemic the poverty rate is still far below what it was 25, let alone 50 years ago. It will be worth checking the data next year to see what effect the war in the Ukraine has, but it seems very unlikely that the poverty rate will shoot up to the level it was back at the turn of the millennium.
