Yes, Kant explicitly says "I found it necessary to limit knowledge in order to make room for faith." Maybe I'm mistaken here, or giving him too much credit, but I never quite took him at his literal word here, as if he were saying "I set out to defend faith and realized that to do so, I'd have to limit knowledge" -- rather I take the Critique of Pure Reason to be primarily a project of laying an epistemological groundwork for the kind of knowledge embodied in Newton's Principia (that and arguing with Hume).

That’s got nothing to do with these total energy calculations. When burning gas in a car you’re converting less than 1/5th of the energy in the crude oil to actually move your car. A wind powered EV is closer to 4/5th of the energy from wind ending up moving your car.

Not only is the EV itself more efficient, so is each stage before that more efficient. Something like 1/3 to 1/2 of all CO2 emissions from ICE cars occur before gasoline makes it to the car. Thus, driving an EV lowers the total energy needed without actually reducing how much people are driving.

PS: Total energy calculations are fairly arbitrary because it’s ultimately sunlight powering things, but that’s also true of fossil fuels just at really unbelievably low efficiency so that parts generally ignored.

As someone who has never used _any_ of these... that pretty much sums up my impression of them all. Just makes all the "but _my_ network of celebrities and brands is better!" all the more amusing.
I'm sure there is some nuance to what someones static site is serving but someones blog doesn't need to be HTTPS. If they are offering downloads you can provide checksums or verify their data through other sources or contacting them out-of-band.

Anything that needs some form of validation from any site should be verifiable in multiple ways. Just because they have HTTPS doesn't mean the provided information or data is automatically correct.
And, IIUC, a debugger that lets you define custom views for interesting data? For example, in the "GtLudoGame" image (the first image in the post), the rightmost picture is some sort of custom debugging view for a game state -- so you can visualize it directly as a board state, instead of as a dict or list or whatever.
Eh. The problem is that people can change software too easily. Say I work on an app as a major contributor and then later on a colleague makes an update to it which makes it do something unethical. Now my name is attached to this unethical app
Thanks for your concern around possible naming conflicts!

Actually the name is deliberate. A homage to jquery, at first I even considered calling this library JCustom. I think the logic is cool, as Hyphen aspires to be a kind of layer atop custom elements, as JQuery was a layer atop the DOM (and MUCH more!).

Yet, the age of JQuery has passed. It's light has gone out of the world, and John Resig has retreated to the West with the Elves.

I don't think it's really an issue.

Also, it's time to consider that passing the torch of '$' is ok. Moreover, perhaps it was never not ok. As in, the existence of a library that binds to a tiny symbol should not restrict others from using the same symbol. Otherwise it would be kind of like 'variable name squatting'--not good! Dollars for all, I say! Who's with me???

So while I get your concern about conflicts there's always been ways to avoid namespace conflicts, such that these avoidance functions have been built into the libraries themselves, in the form of: noConflict().

I think that's sufficient.

And, not that it's the best guide of best practice, but for a long time Chrome, Safar and Firefox have included $, $$ and so on functions in their consoles, as part of the Web Console API.

I get you might be concerned about this, so you can easily modify this tiny base class of Hyphen to call the base whatever you like. Reasonably, there's plenty of names that could be good for a base class, given whatever it is that you might want! :)

For me, tho, I think $ is a beautiful symbol to name it after so I'm sticking with that. JQuery can bind to other symbols, but it's also not as common these days. I'm not worried about it.

Do you think I should be worried about this? If so why?
The problem of `just` is that it does not consider `mtime`, which makes it almost useless in my case. I do hate the quirky syntax of `make`, however, it does a great job of not repeating itself if files have not been changed.

Apropos of anything else, COVID relief was never going to come through the unemployment system. Too many issues of pride and other such things like you mention, but also the grift potential of the PPP scheme worked hugely in its favor. As of now, less than 15% of those loans were ever paid back (I know that forgiveness was an expected part of it, but nonetheless, that number…)

Many countries have postal savings systems, often very significant. The first was in the UK, 1861.[1] In the US, existed 1911 - 1967, started in the wake of the Panic of 1907.[2] The Japan Post Bank is among the largest savings institutions worldwide.[3] France's La Poste Group website[4] highlights "eliminating banking customer refusal" and provides an extensive suite of services.

The U.S. Constitution, Article 1, Section 8, explicitly gives Congress the power "To establish Post Offices and post Roads." A few lines earlier the same article grants Congress the power "To borrow Money on the credit of the United States." Would it then seem odd for the Congress to be assumed to have the power to create postal bonds, so common in much of the world?

[Addendum]

Might not be such a stretch then to imagine a Postal Savings System or something similar with great reach in the US, potentially encompassing much of what commercial banks handle today. The advantages including stability and availability, and perhaps even efficiency. Perhaps Hyman Minsky might have wished for things to... go postal?

>public cannot be trusted to handle it appropriately.

> It should remain the purview of scholars who have proven their fealty to the rational interpretation

Ironically similar to what unsavory regimes in the past believed. The elitism behind this forgets the key role of academics and scholars in regimes like the nazis

https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/the-role-o...

I don't share your your dim view of Joe Public. I think objective information on the nazis should be widely available and can be a useful tool in preventing the rise of oppressive regimes in the future.

People are not going to be equipped to oppose totalitarianism if they are expecting some crazed screaming genocidal madman like the Hitler of the movies. They would be much better equipped of they saw a real picture of how such men rise to power.

Nazi ideals like blood and soil, ideas of state efficiency, their attempt to impose Darwinism ideas on human societies. There's lots of aspects of their ideas that are rearing its head today. And people don't know what to watch for.

I think the ignorance makes young people an easy target for bad actors online who can say - look what they told you about Hitler wasn't completely accurate.

I agree that some censorship is okay in some circumstances but I think this idea of misrepresenting history or painting a one sided view is not wise. Propoganda is not a good long term strategy in the information age.
Floating wind is very low in novelty, there is just a cost trade-off depending on water depth. If your water is too deep then structures become too expensive and floating is cheaper in deep water. There is some room for improvement in floating which will get costs down, but it is totally fine to just deploy straight away.

But if you can install offshore wind on small structures like <30 metres then get that done first, it's cheaper.

I had my Venmo account frozen. I'd only made about three payments. Two to a food bank and one to a school organization. Via email, they said the decision was permanent and their policy was to not discuss why the decision was made. Luckily for me it was only Venmo, which I don't really need to use.

It took me like 5 minutes to google a bunch of conservatives that got banned on FB. And it's not them that keeps me on X, it's the idea that some random activists are deciding which political speech I'm not allowed to see. It actually made me go and see what these people have to say.

- Paul Joseph Watson.

- Laura Loomer.

The fundamental feature of make is building a graph of dependencies and building only the files that need building.

Fair points. But given the potential impact this would have in practice, I'm still surprised there isn't more interest in exploring whether it's possible to scale the approach. Transforming neural network training into convex formulations would drastically simplify many current difficulties.

Were those rules neutral? Even more importantly, were the people determining whether those rules were broken or not?

That actually makes sense. I did wonder about the timing of this piece myself. No one cared until now ( even with SARs related to Biden and Trump the process was rarely in spotlight ).

I don't know if that's true yet, but there are a lot of FOSS and infosec and other software people on Mastodon. Centrist politics seems to be gradually migrating to Threads; lefty politics seems to be going to Mastodon. I'm starting to see Mastodon and Threads embeds where you'd expect Twitter embeds on mainstream sites.

Twitter isn't dead yet, but it's no longer the universal town square, and the longer Musk controls it, the further away from that it will get.
There's no real mystery. Shakespeare was a well-regarded poet, actor, and playwright in a time in English history where these were not yet particularly prestigious things to be. Marlowe died a quarter-century before Shakespeare and we have virtually no documentary evidence from his lifetime, and yet nobody is making websites to prove that _Tamburlaine_ was really written by Ben Jonson.

The book Contested Will by James Shapiro is a really interesting historical review of why Shakespeare authorship theories are such a persistent and recurring thing, despite the lack of new evidence. He also covers how they got started in the first place and why it's Shakespeare in particular that gets this treatment. Highly recommended.

How about metrics like answering the question of, "how much of the coin exists?" Or metrics like, "how understandable and simple is the overall protocol and mining scheme?" Or "has this chain ever broken it's own rules and rolled back transactions at the behest of its benevolent dictator?"

There isn't a clear way to compare infectivity or severity of disease when the virus is a novel pathogen versus one that we have lived with for three years now. I'm not sure why we would expect that absolute risk of severe disease or death would be the same whether you've been previously infected or not.

Its absolutely possible, and even makes sense evolutionarily, that the virus would trend towards higher infectivity and lower mortality over time. I don't disagree with that at all, and ironically I recall that also being an idea that was considered dangerous and wrong early on.

My argument remains though, if the virus in 2020 couldn't be compared to the common cold and it was effectively blasphemous to do so it seems crazy to me that this would be accepted practice now. The sheer amount of both genetic and symptomatic differences required to make a deadly virus turn into a cold virus should warrant classifying it as a different virus and disease entirely.

The inability to hide the source of your funds isn't authoritarian.

> It's the legal uncertainty, that keeps legitimate actors out, that causes the criminal element to be disproportionately high amongst cryptocurrency users.

It's been 15 years since cryptocurrency has existed and for the vast majority of those it's had zero regulation, and has been fully legal. It's not used for legitimate purposes because it's not useful for them.

Crypto is used for speculation, not as a currency. It's used as a currency for criminals because it's easy to use cross-border, including countries who expressly allow cross-border crime (like Russia and cyber ransom, assuming the ransom doesn't target Russians). It's also heavily used as a mechanism to scam people, through pump & dumps, rug pulls, and the like.

We're better off without cryptocurrency, as a whole.
They could spend $75/hr on employees and the cost per car-hour would be just $1.50. That's nothing.

3.5M people work as truck drivers in the US, enough, in principle, to drive ~175M cars at the same time assuming 2% of cars need help at any given moment, ie ~60% of all the cars and trucks in the entire country being driven simultaneously.

Presumably though they'd be able to shave that down a few fold between where they are and dominating transportation nationwide (should they ever do so). So, it's pretty scalable in practical terms.

In my estimation, the 1/10th of a second thing isn't what the remote drivers are for. The car should just stop and avoid getting rear-ended, or dodge, or whatever. charitably, the remote drivers are aiding where a human would need assistance too, like "what hand signal is that cop making? do they mean go, or are they telling me to stop?" or "this light appears to be broken, is it safe to treat it as a 4 way stop?"

my subaru can avoid accidents, it can even avoid things that 100% would not be an accident, even on black ice; so i don't think this is what the remote drivers are doing.
