Ok, but what if another group disagrees and or doesn’t do it well? Won’t you have to enforce it globally or you’re just creating a population which has no countervailing force to counteract it?

And at least right now, wouldn’t that require massive, global, overwhelming force?

No matter how objectively correct or convincing, I could see no way China or Russia would take any such proposal seriously, or take any such action voluntarily, let alone a large chunk of the rest of the world? And they certainly have enough might to not take it lying down.

For example, it wouldn’t have mattered one bit how peaceful Ukraine was when Russia started on its rampage.

Near as I can tell, the only reason Ukraine still exists is because Western Europe and the US had massive stockpiles of weapons they gave, Ukraine had enough angry (and murderous) Ukrainians, and Ukraine and the US had been preparing to murder a bunch of Russians for years after the last move Russia made before Russia made it’s move this time.

And even then it is no small, certain, or cheap endeavor. Horrible destruction has been wrought.

But compared to it’s women and children taken (and raped or ‘married off’/‘adopted’ within Russia) and the men slaughtered, conscripted, or imprisoned, and everything that made them, them destroyed, it’s still the better outcome no?

And that is exactly what would have happened, and has been happening in the area they did take.

Which is pretty normal for these kinds of things. NOT having it happen is definitely the notable exception.

So seems to me, these traits, while irritating/disruptive in peacetime, are essential at some level during times of conflict. And conflict inevitably comes, always. Just as death is a part of life.

My Toyota with electric power steering had this seemingly random cutting out issue for a few months before I figured out that the voltage regulator in the alternator was failing. Replacing the alternator fixed the power steering.

Hopefully drive by wire steering will be more robust, or it will be a death trap.
Notably, Tesla countered by upping the offer but keeping the gag provisions. It was only when it was clear author wouldn't budge that they folded on those clauses. His conclusion was they really wanted to avoid the legal precedent (and attendant headlines). Tesla knows those crows will eventually come home to roost and the longer they can put it off the more they'll mitigate the blowback.

Leaf blowers have always seemed to me like a very inefficient use of technology (when used on grass, not asphalt). I see people struggling all the time to scrape those few leaves at the bottom that just won't move no matter how much air you blow on them.

Having a lawn and having a garden are two different things. You can have a house with property without a giant lawn. Your comment is a disingenuous interpretation of the original poster

I do agree that houses with large lawns and zero food crops are just... wasteful. I rent so I am limited to what I could do, otherwise I would just till my lawn and make almost the entire thing into garden beds.

I dislike seeing those houses that have what amount to prairies and on that grass you see just a few horses or whatever. Such a waste of arable land.

I’ve always taken grass as a granted for landscaping in climates that support it. Didn’t know there was so much hate for grass until this thread.

I think grass is utilitarian. It’s carpet for outside. The kids can play on it, you can bbq on it, have a picnic, etc.

As for why you’d want to keep it short? Bugs, utility, etc. The taller you let it grow, the less usable the space is and the more critters move in (critters that bite in the Midwest)

As for why you wouldn’t let stuff rot on top of your outdoor carpet over the winter, vs process it through a compost pile and spread it as fertilizer in the spring…
I love how this comment subtly acknowledges piracy is the only true unencumbered free-market choice.
Aesthetics. You want sunlight for a variety of reasons, so you cannot grow trees, passability, so not thick bushes, and you don't want it looking like crap. A lawn is am easy default. Pass any zombie home with unmaintained lawn for even a month in the height of the summer and it's obvious why continual manicure is needed. It's not a happy equilibrium, but it is a stable one.

Is anyone else getting tired of people saying “we must move forward on climate change“ without telling us what that looks like?

Must be curb consumption nothing‘s gonna change, not that we can do anything at this point anyway. So maybe we should do nothing about climate change and let climate change do it it needs to do.

And I’m 100% sure my climate footprint is smaller than that guys.

Nice, but I wonder if there are screwdrivers which could also automatically spawn screws (like a mechanical pencil) so you wouldn't even have to move back and forth from the feeder?
You would let a small child just run around in the forest? OP said small. Where I live the woods have bears and mountain cats. A teenager may be able to navigate those dangers successfully but a small child, toddler age, would not do so alone.
Chicago lawn here. As a point of principle I don't water the lawn. It sometimes goes dormant for a bit in the summer - I don't mind the yellow look since the park is yellow and it feels like it fits the general hot, dry spell - but springs back to lush and green once the rains come again.
That’s a cynical interpretation. I have about 4000 sqft of garden with only about 25sqft with grass. Trees, plants, flowering plants, succulents - all of them infinitely more beautiful and low maintenance than a lawn.
That definitely seems to be a little better now - in Europe at least lead times on inverters and batteries are tiny.
You can also extend the derivative such that you compute it numerically and then some slight discontinuities are certainly not a problem.

I'm a never-HOAer, but I do like my own lawn for the aesthetics and utility for the kids, dog, for having friends over, and frankly, for the distraction and sense of accomplishment that growing a beautiful and lush, dark green carpet of grass provides.

We grow a small family vegetable garden as well, which is probably substantially less practical than buying the equivalent amount of produce at the best and most expensive organic farmers' market you could imagine.
Didn't Apple agree to store data inside China for their citizens in a separate server system, thus making it subject to scrutiny on a national level? If that has been the case and people think otherwise...well, it shows how hard it is to navigate the abstractions of networked systems.
You're right that this isn't actionable advice. That's because this is me talking about the sorts of behaviors I look for, not the skills and actions that are derived from those behaviors.

If you spend Saturday morning revving multiple 90dB engines in your front yard, the police will come and ask you to stop... unless you're using them to blow leaves around. Leaf blowers don't need to be banned, we simply need to stop treating them as an exception. It seems to me that the best solution would be to enforce existing noise and pollution ordinances and require landscapers to get quieter (possibly electric) equipment.
> they just raised a huge amount of money in the exact right moment.

as a neighbor in Alameda County but not connected to anything else on this thread, it is very hard to understand as an outsider how they could "raise lots of money" and then not complete things that are being done now at scale by many others... weird to see "we signed a big contract" followed by "we aren't shipping the results and the company is folding"

Knowing nothing about this sector basically, a comparison to a different "old business" and that is real estate development. There are many, many stories about expensive projects funded, stalled, and abandoned... there are always things going on behind the scenes.. and where does that money go? Is there a Federal prosecution in the works here? someone bought NFT crypto ? company rivals pulling strings?

(2019) Intel Hints Towards An Xe ‘Coherent Multi-GPU’ Future With CXL Interconnect

https://wccftech.com/intel-xe-coherent-multi-gpu-cxl/

"If CXL can seamlessly scale GPUs, then the economics of the market would also change completely. People would be able to buy a cheaper GPU first and then simply add another one if they want more power. It would add much more flexibility in buying decisions and even alleviate buyers remorse to some extent for the gaming class. If CXL mode trickles down to the consumer level anytime soon, then we might even see motherboard designs change drastically as multiple sockets and multiple GPUs become a feasible option. Needless to say, it looks like things are going to get pretty exciting in a few years."
> But growing grass can be just as rewarding as growing anything else.

This is true in the general sense, but it's also mostly subjective. There are plenty of divisive yet enjoyable pursuits in the world.
What would you put that is better? Although not perfect, lawns IMO are a good combination of practicality/aesthetic/maintenance.
Although I stopped drinking soda years ago, back when I did I considered RC to be the best of them all. It was a shame when it vanished form the shelves in my part of the US.
Public parks are too. If you've got reasonable access to one, do you need the other? Or rather, is a private lawn something that should be taxed (much?) more heavily where a park is available within 15 mins walk? And should urban planners take that into account, and developments be penalised when they don't?
Unfortunately Elon is also a liar. He already posted a "censored" response to a question about manufacturing cocaine:

If you have neither a rice cooker nor an instant pot, get an instant pot. If you have one, the other compliments it well.

It depends on how much 'error' or inconvenience you're willing to accept.

Looking at how we might approach your tennis court scenario I see a lot of mistakes that the AI could make. Maybe the court is members only, but it didn't realize the court is inside a gym or location where a human would be sure to check that. Or it finds one an hour away, so your Uber is expensive.

I assume if you do this often, you'd know about potential tennis courts in the area. So for me I'd rather do the research up front myself, but this could be personal preference. In the end, maybe we have to see how good these `AI + some code` apps get, but I wouldn't want to use the first versions.
Quantum Breakthrough: Scientists Rethink the Nature of Reality
Yeah, they cite that, but their rephrasing is a little dubious.

If you follow the link, it is 40% of homeowners have paid for landscaping services in the past year.

So I mow my own lawn, not much work with a reel mower, small lot, the highest setting, maybe twice a month. However, this spring I hired somebody to trim a hedge that I’ve done myself in the past but requires a tall ladder, which I had borrowed from someone who moved. If you have someone come out and look at a damaged or diseased tree, that would also do it I think (unless arborists are separated out)

Hmm, thanks for explaining the profiles. I'll try a few and see how they taste.

> The rice cooker doesn't know either, it will take whatever is needed to take. Short of putting an extensive sensor array and ask you for the kind of rice you put in it, there's probably no way to actually predict it.

Why doesn't it know when it's so consistent every time? How does the ninja know? How does this one know when it's closer to 10 minutes? Seems like you should be able to estimate it down to a within a few minutes at start, then refine that estimate if need be. It's helpful to know whether something will take 15, 20 min or 45 to an hour.
Honestly? Brave's reputation is really in the dump for me, especially since the link hijacking scandal, weird crypto scheme and everything.

Could anybody elaborate to an actual reason as to why you'd use Brave instead of an AdBlock boosted Firefox?
Windows does, for both NTFS and ReFS. It works flawlessly in my experience. You can enable deduplication with one PowerShell command.

I’m sure Microsoft would enable it for Windows 11, instead of just Windows 2022, if it didn’t eat directly into juicy margins on increased storage in an industry where product customization / personalization is like 10% of revenues but 40% of profits.

That one step would probably free up global exabytes of disk space.

My lawn has 100s of plants in addition to grass. I’ve never actually seen a lawn that was just grass.

What’s astonishing to me is how deeply some folks care about what I plant around my house for my own enjoyment, and how willing they are to nominate themselves to tell me to change it.

The nice thing about grass is how little effort it takes to maintain. Not everyone wants to be a full time gardener.
Yes this entire thing is a hullabaloo over a soon to be solved problem.

All ICE devices are more expensive than battery based ones fundamentally, it's just that the economies of scale and battery tech is still a couple notches down. Well, and the battery based devices are "luxury" versions of the "dirty ICE" variants, so they currently command a ridiculous premium.

I keep waiting for plunging battery economics to come to eGo battery packs and they don't. This isn't just someone bitching about prices of a lock-in tool company, lawncare is a MASSIVE carbon and air pollution problem, and switchover costs to non-ICE tools is much less of a lift than a 30,000$ car.

Like ebikes, there should be aggressive incentives for consumers to get electric tools for lawn care, and aggressive pressure on companies to drop battery pack prices.

And like the torque advantage of electric motors in cars for racing off the line, the EV torque advantage typically provides a superior tool.
Mulching leaves with a mower would deal with them just fine in many cases. The landscaper in the article doesn't need to cancel all of his fall cleanup contracts. Areas with dense oak trees however, might have so many leaves mulching would choke out the grass.
uh, have you never been to a park? that isn't irrigated and looks fine.

Unless that water makes it to a street drain, it’s a 100% renewable resource.

When that water evaporates, it goes up in the air, and then falls back down as water.
> You would let a small child just run around in the forest?

Plenty of us did as children as recently as the 90s, and even at that point it was less common than previous generations. I wouldn't do it today either, but the reasons are societal and/or emotional rather than any high statistical danger.
The person who brought it up, if you want to be picky.

My original comment is in the context of spelling reform.
I live in a detached house in the suburbs and I don't own a leaf blower, have never watered the grass, cut it about once a month (and thinking of low maintenance ways to get rid of it so I don't have to own a lawn mower). So no, in fact it's not "manicured spotless lawn or literally shove everyone into apartments".
It sounds like the root cause of the issue you describe is cops not doing their job. Perhaps the efforts of the city can be better targeted to the root cause, rather than creating additional bureaucracy, or engaging in collective punishment because it's more convenient.

It also doesn't seem like it would work because most property owners are even less excited than cops about confronting a hardworking landscaping worker, particularly given that it's the cops' job to do so, not theirs.
The rice cookers are very good at keeping things at a safe temp. The good ones will have power failure detection.

I regularly make a (work) weeks worth of rice on Sunday night and eat through it until Thursday or Friday or so. Been doing this for well over a decade so far.

The first two days you probably can't tell the difference unless you are a rice snob. After that the taste tends to suffer a bit, but infinitely better than reheating rice from the fridge.
Things can always get worse. In fact, that’s often the result when humans try to fix complicated problems.
Ask HN: Listing unrelated work experience on the CV
I'm 40 years old and I worked lots of jobs before I turned into a software developer last year. I only have 1.5 years of software development experience.

However, whenever I try to mention my older work experience during the first interview screeners, 2 HR people got angry for omitting my experience. I told them that I'm not listing everything because that'll take 2 pages and not everything contributes to my profile. They ghosted me.

I'm seriously thinking that it's covert ageism, but part of me also wants to list it to dodge the bullet of ageism before the figurative gun is fired. Advice?
Yes - it’s important rice is either hot or cold, not kept warm for long periods (five or so hours) and then eaten.
If you have a few leaves, sure. If you've got more than 1 tree that shit will pile up, clump together, and form a layer of slimy leaves that won't break down for years.
Originally if you think of Manor house gardens, wasting farmable land to just keep lawned gardens was a sign of wealth.

Great post - I've been looking for a serious update to Mackay's numbers for ages.

One thing in curious about: developments in fixed wind turbines tech mean they are economically viable in more locations (e.g. deeper water) so can cover more area.

But how much more do they produce per square km of deployment than Mackay's estimates?

In his book, he has a nice section explaining that bigger turbines have to be spaced out more, so whilst theyre cheaper, they don't produce as much more energy as the headline 'output per turbine' would naively suggest.

But modern turbines are higher, so they presumably 'catch' more wind, and windspeeds are more consistent higher up. But I'm curious how big an effect this is.
