There are a bunch of things wrong with having someone else own the solar on your roof. Read the contracts, they are not particularly fair to the home owner.

I saw a comment describing this increasing luddite response to new tech developments and it resonated with me.

Essentially, the comment made the point that tech is advancing so fast these days that most people are unable to keep up with the pace of these radical changes. And the natural reaction to that for many is to reject these "advancements" or at least look upon them with cynicism and skepticism.

The RFCs for QUIC (RFC 9000 and RFC 9001) mandate encryption.

Some random stackoverflow answer[1] claims there are implementations that ignore this and allow "QUIC without encryption", but I'd argue that it's not QUIC anymore -- in my opinion it'd be harmful to implement in the kernel.

Correct. I always find cheaper prices on Expedia than I do at Marriott’s website or their counter.

But Hyatt is almost always cheaper directly. Hyatt is my fav chain, they maintain a proper standard of service for their price. I’m a believer.

Sorry, what do you mean by non-particulate emissions? Emissions that... aren't particles? Like broken glass from car windows?
Not sending an explicit signal prevents certain injection attacks, but I'm not sure how much that would matter in practice. They would have to be some sort of off-path attack so the attacker can't just end the connection by blocking it.
Completely understand, yeah. It is annoying trying to get those builds to work! You'd rather just do something that slips right in. It's always good to shop around and find the lib that best suits your purpose!

Cool, these home automation projects seems pretty nifty, and like a compelling rabbithole where you can just keep adding stuff. Your set up sounds like a big project, well done! It's cool you created a whole streaming stack for this. The use of a dedicated streaming RTSP server is a high level of technical sophistication!
If I recall, that's kind of deceptive. Particulate emissions from tires are much larger particles that fall out of the air much more rapidly and aren't nearly as linked to bad health compared to combustion products.
4chan is a large community of different boards. Which one did you visit and see that stuff on?
I really like that service. I can't wait to see how they enshittify this one.
We can assume the authors know about negentropy. This response is like reading an article on quantum computer architecture and saying “Max Born explained all this in 1925.”
But do they really not hold those views? I know a lot of kids who do things to get a reaction, but I've seen one actually take an ideological perspective that they don't believe in to get one. They just broadcast ideological perspectives they do believe, which they think will get a reaction.

What's some belief you pretended to have, but you really didn't?
It's not financing. You'll never own those panels. You now have a permanent, physical relationship with the stupid solar company. Business models like that normalize two things:

1. Everything should be absurdly, suspiciously cheap or even free.

2. You don't own things you buy, you just own the right to use them according to your lengthy legal agreement with the real owner.

These have become very popular ideas! So popular, in fact, that if you object you're stuck paying for specialty items that are dramatically more expensive than they would be if they could be produced at scale.

The unfortunate truth about living in a big economy is that everybody merely exercising their free choice really does affect everybody else. So we reserve the right to talk shit about annoying business models, in the hopes that we will make them at least a little bit less cool and less popular so the competitors with "purer" models (like, "build a thing people want and trade full ownership of that thing for money") have more of a chance to scale up.

Creating the Federal Reserve was a fundamental change. Confiscating gold then pegging the US dollar to a gold-backed value was a fundamental change. Getting rid of the gold standard and going full fiat sad a fundamental change.

The economic model, monetary policy, and incentives of each system were completely different. We may not have renamed the currency or the country, but that doesn't change the fact that those were major economic shifts.

Happens frequently when the mica sheet that covers the injection port gets moisture from steam (who'd have thought - steam in a microwave?!?)

Simple fix is to replace the mica (a few cents from AliExpress) and use steel wool to get rid of any carbon residue around the injection port.
I have an Epson flatbed scanner for my photography, a V600. It's a lovely little device. Crapware-free functionality. Granted, it seems like the bundled software hasn't been updated since the stone age, but that might be a good thing.

My HP inkjet, on the other hand, is a wreck. I had to install an app on my phone, pair over bluetooth, connect it to wi-fi, and create an account just to get a damn test page. No USB cable included, by the way. Many cursing matches eventually got it working, but I regret buying it. Once the ink runs out, I'll probably send it to Goodwill or something.

I think the disease spread and killed many far before the violent displacement took place. Many natives were already dead by the 1700’s.
Oh I see. But this is about non-exhaust emissions... does e.g. rubber rolling on the road generate gases like carbon monoxide? I feel like I'm missing something.
Yes it’s marketing, but if you have a complex product or service offering, a short book can be a good way to get the thinking across.

How do we know these exist of we don't know how to access our use them? Without access we can only estimate the reserves, and without a way to use it we can't calculate the potential energy creation or storage.

We really are screwed off our only hope is blind faith that tech can save us. Technology can help, but we can't abandon the option of decisions that can already be made today.
Leasing is not risk free. These programs are generally structured to extract maximum value for the leasing company while minimizing risk. They are not designed to provide some kind of equitable win-win for the homeowner, though obviously the marketing copy doesn’t reflect that.

Almost nobody in the commercial search field is doing quantitative evaluation despite

About a decade ago I worked on a neural-net powered search engine for patents that used a neural network to compress bag of words features into a 50-dimensional vector (think LDA on steroids) and used a patented algorithm to

https://patents.google.com/patent/CA2829569C

combine that result with the keyword vector. It kicked ass. When we put up a demo we got a call the first day from the USPTO wanting to buy it.

The thing is that algorithm searches over the feature vector and the residual of that feature vector in the bag-of-words space. There's no danger of infringing that with a BERT-like model because there isn't any such residual.

We tuned up w/ Gov2 data from TREC and that was essential for getting our parameters right.

If I were trying that now I would use logistic regression to make a probability estimator that "this document is relevant" that uses multiple scores as input; I'm not so sure how great results you will get but it is a rational basis to get started. TREC specifically does not reward training a probability estimator because they historically have been interested in "long tail" results and they don't think a kid sticking up his hand really high because he is really certain it adds value, but there are a lot of things with IR that are really hard (alerting) because we're mostly not using probability estimators and the ones we do make aren't that great (e.g. I never see p>0.7 for a conventional search engine tuned up that way.)
your choices are either keep using dirty energy, or phase it out over the next 20 to 30 years. honestly, you will not have a choice as marginal demand will force weird dynamics on supply and consequently prices
how does the personality test work? what do they want?
That is true. But an actual self-signed certificate is not signed by any CA, so it still can't be used with QUIC connections (with specific clients such as Chrome, anyway.)
Not the OP, but currently I work in a regulated industry (financial) where Corporate Risk and Legal depts ask for this stuff (and much more) to satisfy external auditors. The IT people hate it just as much.

India’s Banks Are Making $64B from a Freebie
Essentially due to western government sanctions, leasing companies are forced to break the lease (law of the land). In retaliation, Russian government sanctions are blocking airlines from returning the planes (law of the land too).

Both are just following laws and rules in their respective jurisdiction.

And with western countries confiscating assets belonging to private citizens just because they have Russian citizenship (with only tangential relationship to Russian government and zero influence on Ukrainian war), EU/US are not exactly in a place to get on high horse.

I suspect the inverter design is now cheaper too.

The traditional design needs all power to go through a transformer. A 1 kilowatt 60Hz transformer necessarily uses a lot of copper and steel. The inverter design can use MOSFETs (theoretically cheap, but a reasonable IP cost) and far less copper and steel.

It seems that Tesla plans to upgrade their charging network to support higher voltages for charging. This is also needed for their upcoming truck, it seems.

Hyundai suggested in a response to Green Car Reports that Tesla is on board to support its EVs' charge rates: “Tesla’s commitment to expanding its network will enhance customer access to out-of-home charging and fully support the ultra-fast charging speeds on Hyundai’s advanced Electric-Global Modular Platform (E-GMP) vehicles, including Ioniq 5 and Ioniq 6 and the upcoming Ioniq 7.”

Solar and wind are absolutely limited, both by environmental conditions that change the energy potential and by our ability to store energy. Neither can handle surge use as well either, we can't make more wind or sunshine when everyone turns on their suit conditioner.

Nuclear is at least a viable shirt term solution. Combine that with reducing our total energy demand and we're at least buying ourselves more time to figure things out, that's a much better sort term path for sure.
I think you know this is bizarre behavior. Like, are you going around burning out your neighbour's Tesla's eyes?

I've done this once. I got a laptop from a new company that was really shitty, but I had hopes that running Gentoo with some nasty CFLAGS would make it usable. However, the thing would heat a lot when compiling the base system and would crash in the middle of the installation.

Fair enough! I put it in the fridge and ran the installation from there. It concluded without issues and the laptop was MUCH faster than with a "normal" Linux distro. (I don't think this kind of big performance difference holds up on modern machines though).
> You'll never own those panels.

There’s actually one scenario where you do — the panels reach end of life right around the time the lease is up. So you are now the proud owner of a removal and disposal liability that you’re going to want to handle before you sell the house.

Defining standards of living in this way is very short term focused. If we reduce energy demand now but avoid a power grid collapse a decade down the road, is that better or worse for standard of living? And if we really are meant to believe that climate change is irreversible if we don't change course before 2030, who gives a damn about stander of lining for the next few years?
Because exhaust emissions are non particulate. That’s like saying in this bag with 200 blue balls and 10 red balls, 90% of the red balls are red.

2 years ago the 10-year Treasury was yielding 1.5%. Inflation would have to be below 1.5% for the following 10 years for the bondholder to make back more than inflation.

Actually people who bought Treasuries in 2021 are almost underwater on it already, just in inflation these last two years. Cumulative price increases for 2021 + 2022 was 14.5%, while 10 years of 1.5% interest gives you 16%. Inflation would have to be basically zero for the next 8 years for them to break even.

> it’s a modified turboshaft jet engine used for helicopters, intended to provide longitudinal rotational energy. The air it moves from the intake is a fraction of what it produces as the combustion process itself results in gasses being chemically formed.

It's not a turbofan no but it's a jet engine burning fuel the regular way (using air), like the ones on a B-52 or Concorde. Very different from a rocket engine that carries its own oxidiser.
yeah, DST schedules change frequently enough that within the lifetime of most automobiles, at least some of them will be in use in some location where up-to-date timezone database doesn't match the timezone database in the car's software.

so the manufacturer gets to choose between making people apply DST changes manually twice a year, which most people understand and are used to doing for various things, or changing over for DST automatically but being wrong sometimes, which most people won't understand and will complain about.
This bill seems so outdated. 5 years ago there were major outstanding ethical problems in regards to bias of models.

I mean, I just don't think AI is necessary to achieve anything you've outlined so far. Linux can be made simpler without using AI to achieve it. The system is fairly standardized, there's no real "cracks" for AI to fill-in. As a sysadmin myself, I'd argue AI presents more risks than rewards (even for inexperienced users). The opportunity to damage your system is far too high for a clueless user, it's arguably more important to build powerful and simple abstractions instead.

Not if those "improvements" go against the desired grain by gnome/etc maintainers.

If I'm not misremembering, the gnome team is especially notorious for being closed to changes that go against their desired design goals.

Trying to get changes upstream like what the parent was suggesting would be somewhere between arduous and impossible, let alone being a pain to implement.

Many components in an iPhone are paired to the logic board from the factory, so if they need to be replaced you have no choice but to go down the Apple sanctioned repair path (although the third party industry goes to great lengths to work around it). Some components, like the display, will show a warning notification in iOS for weeks and disable features like True Tone and auto-brightness if swapped with a third party part. Other components such as the cameras can't even be swapped between 100% genuine iPhones.
