This is a very easily solved problem.

Right now people are buying charging systems that do things like only charge when there’s a surplus of self-generated rooftop solar, or offer a big discount on EV charging if you’re prepared to have it interrupted at peak times.
Hmm - does it not generate a crease down the middle of all of your shirts?
You can continually take page faults in a Turing complete way without executing any code, so I would guess this is unbounded?
We had this conversation in TheDAO (the big one that went sideways first) and ultimately the conclusion was that TheDAO would be best not investing its coin upfront, but sniffing out (potentially paying lawyers) the best legal jurisdiction to give it some kind of legal status, then it should go hunting for projects to invest in.
I'm amused, but this would drive me absolutely effing bonkers and i wouldn't get anything done. It might be good for certain activities but for deep work and writing I'd lose it. Its the ticking.

YMMV, but I've found that using very high resolution (~3000 DPI) "gaming" mice works very well under MacOS. This works well with my tendency to not move my hand very much when mousing, but still expect the pointer to go to the other side of the screen. Plus, some of those mice have on-board memory which allows customizing their buttons without having some crappy app running in the background (Logitech G vs normal Logitech).

Using a regular mouse does feel like trying to push a string through sand.

Interesting to know that it was more than just an idea - thanks!
Yes, but the point is that the problem is isomorphic to wind or solar: you get power when you don't want it. So nuclear isn't backstopping any particular need, it has the same drawbacks. The reason gas plants are used as peaker plants is that they can be turned on and off more or less instantly.
I almost mentioned page faults, but that's something the kernel has control over. It could just make sure everything is in memory so there aren't any faults. So it's not really an issue I think.
Peel them off from left to right (not bottom to top, as feels natural) and they won’t be as inclined to grow legs.

"Not provably false" isn't the standard for believing anything either. Claims require evidence. Evidence requires corroboration, and where that's not possible it at the very least requires trust. Neither is present here.

Wouldn’t it be worth taking out a design patent on a product like this? It might not stop people making similar designs, but it would give you protection against outright clones.

Not viewing the tiktok links so I don't know the full context, but 98% of BC's power is from "clean, renewable sources" apparently: https://choose.bchydro.com/why-choose-bc/clean-renewable-ene...

BTW, eventually "green" energy _has_ to work, because sooner or later, fossil fuels are going to run out. I mean, the sooner we figure this out in an effective way, the better. It's literally pointless to argue against the inevitability of needing truly renewable energy.
If you add a DOM node somewhere, it’s first removed from where it was because it can only exist in one place. You need to clone the node if that’s not what you want.

Incidentally, here’s a briefer spelling of that function (skipping the superfluous Array.from(), using a for loop instead of forEach, and using .append() instead of .appendChild(), cumulatively reducing 8 years of browser support to 5½+ years, which is no meaningful difference; and although I’ve declared Array.from() superfluous, note that this is only the case because querySelectorAll returns a non-live NodeList—you couldn’t do this with childNodes since it’d be being mutated during iteration so you’d miss half the items due to how it all works):

function moveSelectedItems(fromList, toList) {
for (const item of fromList.querySelectorAll('input[type="checkbox"]:checked')) {
item.checked = false; // Uncheck the item
toList.append(item.closest('li')); // Move the entire list item
}
}
Same. This basically amounts to "one afternoon we got 200 people to answer surveys that were a tiny more like this than like that".

The way to do this in my opinion would be to go over mental disorder demographics and see if any profession is underrepresented in actual cases compared to the prevalence of the job in the overall population.

This is like finding the most dangerous jobs by surveying people instead of looking at injury rates at work.

Aero is named for the glossy Aero Glass design of Vista, so XP was like the precursor, before they had the window compositor that allowed such effects.

> but the presence of a single Android user in an iMessage group chat can break the experience for everyone

It is still such a laughable issue from the POV of any other country.. SMS is there for text-only, it’s a legacy tech that didn’t ever get popular in different places due to it having shit support for non-ascii letters (writing a single ü would almost halve the remaining chars I can write), and not having unlimited SMS sends, so internet-based messaging spread like wide-fire. iMessage is the latter, the normal SMS is not. But there are also Telegram, Whatsapp, Facebook, a million other solutions.

It’s a made-up issue.
So you're saying renewables are so cheap now that poor countries that only care about saving money build a ton of them? That sounds like excellent news to me.
Michael Jackson was an excellent musician, who just happened to not play any instruments. He'd hum lines, beatbox rhythms to his band who'd then take his ideas and transform his ideas into instrumental music. Most people don't have access to the quality musicians MJ had, but there's a lot of creative people that lack the skills to create their artistic vision. Tech like this could be the unleashing of an age of new genres and musical creativity. I'm optimistic.
To the contrary, nuclear contamination can be cleaned up. Fukushima's exclusion zone was completely lifted after 11 years [1]. Pripyat was a planned city, built for the specific purpose of supporting the Chernobyl plant and it's workers. It remains unremediated because there's no incentive to clean it up, not because. Nuclear power has a smaller death toll per megawatt hour than wind, orders of magnitude less than hydropower and biomass [2].

Hahahaha poor naive people that accepted to "collaborate" with Google, Google has taught us how their seemingly benign acts always end up as they started, right?

Nothing more trustworthy than a multi billion corporation trying to destroy the internet as we know it to get more billions out of ads convinces a bunch of washed up artists that their new project is benign and even are so good that they use the hashtag "Social Responsibility".

This is very totally not just a plan to try to get others on board, wonder what's the catch here? try to do a FOMO where only the first few get to get rights for their voice being used? playing a very long con getting voice exclusivity rights? or what exactly?

One thing I know is that whatever Google says is a lie.
For most economies, assuming positive real interest rates, the choice is between natural gas and nuclear. Solar + wind will be the cheapest, and will make up the bulk of primary production. But they won’t replace coal, natural gas, oil and nukes—not in the near term, and certainly not if we’re tooling up for EVs.

Portugal has gone gas. America will, too, in all likelihood. Both will be subsidised by countries without natural gas reserves who have decided to shun nuclear.
I like this suggestion better!
Thumbs up (and other reaction responses)?

A little side note: I struggled a LOT with procrastination in my 20s. I was convinced I had ADHD because I would waste hours on useless bullshit online instead of working.

Then I started working on something I actually enjoyed and realized that my ADHD was just me avoiding work I hated. I can go hours without taking a break now, so much so that it’s become a health problem.

I suspect many such self-diagnosed cases of ADHD are just people stuck doing work that’s not for them.

(Doesn’t apply to clinically diagnosed ADHD cases of course)

I've tried Helix for 3-weeks. The micro for half a week. I'm back to joe, nano, geanny, vscode,

It's 2023. Our keyboards are standardized (looking at you, Chromebooks) with control, alt, altgr, meta keys.

I can't understand why micro is the only console/cli editor that (partially) supports 1987's CUA standard[1]. All I want is TUI text editor or IDE that let me use Shift-Arrows to select text, Home/End keys should do what their names say, but if you hold Ctrl, they go to the beginning and end of file. I'd like to use use Ctrl-Ins/Ctrl-Del/Shift-Ins/ to access the Clipboard. Can we also have some menu or palette system, perhaps context-sensitive that includes every mapped shortcut? How about an easy system to create some windows or panes that can. E easily moved and resized? Wouldn't it be terrific if I pressed momentarily say, control-alt, and a calculator, calendar or a terminal showed up?

MS-DOS edit.com, Borland SideKick and Turbo IDEs had all these em 1991. I'm very fond of Midnight Commander editor, micro, joe, nano exactly because they have this DOS atmosphere, where the learning curve looked more gentle.

Linux and other unices got into a very interesting scenario. If the application is intended to run over a graphical desktop environment, it'll likely follow the CUA specs. OTOH, console/cli tools decided they don't care about CUA or current UI/UX practices (notable exception is micro), they will keep using standards created 40+ years ago, ignoring the standardization we've adopted since PC GUI massification around 1990.

> without feeling the need to innovate.

the sibling comment mentions "craft vs art"; and thats valid.

However, some may be pursuing a different craft (or art) than the illusion.

Stupid stale stage magic makes a great framework for an original comedy routine, perhaps. The elegant craft of the "4 shows a day, 7 days a week" lounge act that is reliably entertaining for years is not something to lightly dismiss either.

It extends to programming; that people who are not facing the hard problems everyday may well still be doing valid work. The Nth re-implementation of "strings for C that suck less" or "super tight circle drawing hack for today's hot hardware" can well be Art, and can well be worthy beyond their creator's joy (tho that alone is justification enough to make them).
I could see this working really nicely for those clothes in the liminal space between clean and dirty that I inevitably toss on my chair right now.

Companies do it because it works. You're blaming bad behavior on the people that are being manipulated because, according to you, they have psychological problems. As if the people being manipulated being disabled somehow excuses the company taking advantage of them.
This is why I never created a blind account. I do not care about how much others are paid. I get what I ask for. But anyhow, I think people who got into the industry just for the money might actually be sleeping well. Everything from not enough code coverage to stupid deployment practices bothers me. And I am more emotionally invested in doing the right thing. Politics and stupid tactics drain me.
Can you say what ordinary (non-discounted) pricing was like, per message? At least in the US, most carriers did I and, believe, still do operate free SMTP -> SMS gateways. They worked okay, although they resulted in oddly formatted messages.

I was also pretty pleased with my move to MacOS but one thing I really miss is the file navigation from Windows. Like when I want to drag a file somewhere a few difectories deep. I wish I could hold it over a folder and then have it open that next folder, and so on. Is there a way to enable this?

Also the in application file picker makes it difficult to go up and down directories.

I for one will never donate to signal, and consider my $1000 (or $20k of never realized "fake" money, explained later) lost to mobilecoins to be my lifetime "donation" to them.

Short timeline of events from my side:

- Signal announces/endorses mobilecoin support, as their new and only cryptocurrency option

- I figure I'll get on it early this time after missing out on Bitcoin, despite Signal only supporting this in the UK (for now)

- Mobilecoin and Signal websites both mention FTX as being the only exchange where you can currently buy mobilecoin, never used it before but I go ahead, transfer $1000 worth (at the time) of bitcoin to buy mobilecoin

- There are currently no other wallets for mobilecoin (except maybe some difficult to use or obscure ones that looked sketchy? don't like leaving money on the exchange but didn't really have other options)

- Mobilecoin spiked on ftx, sold and bought back a few times, at the right time with some good luck, now have $20,000 of mobilecoin

- Signal finally adds support for mobilecoin in my country, proceed to try and withdraw it

- However, my country just announced legislation to require ID in order to buy/sell cryptocurrency, but it's not planned to go into effect for at least another 6 months or so, but FTX decided to start requiring it immediately and wouldn't let me withdraw without it (I could see they were still willing to take more deposits from me without it though!)

- FTX had trouble verifying ID, I already suspected what was about to happen, tried my best to get my crypto out but they kept having excuses, the ftx fall out and everything became known some months later
Congrats! And that’s a really neat product!
No, 12TWh of batteries is not feasible. The entire world produces about 400 GWh worth of batteries per year. And bear in mind that 12 TWh is a day's worth of electricity just for the US - the global figure is 60TWh. Furthermore, as transportation, heating, and industrial processes are electrified that's going to drive that 12TWh figure up even higher. Only about half our fossil fuel use is due to electricity production. And again, remember that electric vehicles are going to consume the lion's share of battery production,.
