The no-hub also won't carry the weight that hub and spigot cast iron will. I've seen a few roof drains come apart in business ceilings because the old cast iron was replaced with hub and spigot, and no one adjusted the spacing on the clevis hangers. First major rain, and there's too much weight for the no-hub couplings!

You can of course run extra heavy no-hub couplers (four or more worm clamps per joint).
> IIUC JavaScript has something similar for `this.#x`. Although this is implemented much more robustly and doesn't rely on unique class names and I believe is actually "secure" as in no other class can gain access. But I am not up-to-date on JS reflection abilities. The code desugars to something like `const X_PROP = new Symbol()` created once-per-class and accessible only to the class itself, then the accesses become something like `this[X_PROP]`.

Documentation: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Refe...

TL;DR it's a language feature, there's no reflection and it's not a syntax sugar for `new Symbol()`. It's actually implemented as a _syntax_ error to access the private member outside the class, which is made possible by using a sigil `#`

Yeah this. Several countries in Europe have seen negative electricity prices during the day this past spring and summer because of abundant solar and wind production: Netherlands, Denmark, Finland, Portugal to name just a few.

If you had a variable electric contract (rare but possible), you were paid to use electricity during those hours. Got a battery at home? You can be paid to charge it during the day, and paid again to discharge it at night.

Hah, yeah, it’s unsurprising that a new asset class isn’t very popular on a forum frequented by the government’s “workhorse” taxpayers. Especially an asset class created by people with the same skills as them, rather than guys in suits.

AI models on FPGAs has been tried before, for instance: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/project/project-cat....

They haven't been able to compete with GPU's on perf/watt. In general you end up just designing some AI accelerator for the FPGA (because the models are too big to map onto a single device all at once), but it's hard to beat purpose-built tensor and vector HW on a GPU when you're running soft logic.

> A black hole doesn't work like an ordinary object.

Black holes are ordinary objects, if they are anything at all. Take any normal object and give it the mass of a black hole, and what do you have?

To claim that a black hole “doesn’t work like normal matter” seems to ignore that these entities have come to exist “normally”, or rather, through a natural course of events.

It’s not that the black hole “doesn’t work like normal matter”, but rather that you refuse to accept that normal matter with the mass of a black hole (and hence, the observable properties we associate with black holes) are still “normal objects”.

When objects of a certain class display certain properties, it’s not accurate to say “that’s not normal.” Instead, it would be accurate to say, “that is the normal behavior of objects once they reach this class or state.”

A lot of the people fired were rated highly in their performance reviews, I'm sure. But if you're too ambitious or criticized the boss for making a mistake or just looked at him wrong... you're gone.

- Never stay somewhere longer than 2-4 years

- Don't take on extra work or go above and beyond

- Try to work two or more remote jobs

- Kiss your boss' ass

- Never take a stand on anything

Algebraic Effects for the Rest of Us (2019)
Interesting point. That said, the AI model space is rapidly evolving, while bitcoin's hashing problem is static. This makes it significantly more risky to make a large capital investment in dedicated HW when it's unclear if it will be able to run the next big model architecture. For instance, if this had been built + released a year ago, before SOTA models used MoE , then it would rapidly have become obselete.

The kitchen sink must not be too hard on it, after all it hits the main stack eventually :P I've seen a lot of NY state cast iron cast at the Monitor Iron Works, like Monitor and Merrimack, the US Civil War era ironclad warships. Still in service, still not leaking. Now of course that's survivor bias!

You usually don't need expansion joints on cast iron...not that most residential construction gets them even when they are needed.

It's detectable in an X-ray, unlike PVC, though I doubt that's of interest to 99% of DWV applications!

No-hub is easier to adjust and rework than glued plastic pipe, as you can always loosen the coupling. Hub-and-spigot with rubber gaskets is effectively permanent, you have to seat it with lube and a mechanical assist puller usually. On the old lead and oakum joints, you can always dig out the lead to change orientation (not fun), or caulk it (as in with irons) more if there's seepage on a line.
I am not buying this at all. But I’m not a hardware guy so maybe someone can help with why this is not true:

- Crypto hardware needed SHA256 which is basically tons of bitwise operations. That’s way simpler than the tons of matrix ops transformers need.

- NVidia wasn’t focused on crypto acceleration as a core competency. There are focussed on this, and are already years down the path.

- One of the biggest bottlenecks is memory bandwidth. That is also not cheap or simple to do.

- Say they do have a great design. What process are they going to build it on? There are some big customers out there waiting for TMSC space already.

Maybe they have IP and it’s more of a patent play.

> Messages.app, not iMessage is the default.

This is semantics and you know it.

> iMessage exists for Apple-to-Apple messaging

There we go. iMessage is the default for Apple phones contacting other phones.

Given that iPhones are a majority in the US, iMessage is the default for most phones in the US.

> What? That is certainly a take.

I don't see how. I think it's perfectly rational. I'm surprsied you disagree so strongly to be hoenst.

*shrug*

I feel the same way about you.

> So RCS will "fix" most of the "problems they have caused" here.

No, it really won't. It certainly won't do anything to fix the silly blue/green bubble divide they caused.

> What's more the main barrier, as ever, has been carrier adoption.

It doesn't really matter if carriers adopt something that the manufacturer of most phoens in the US does not support.

> Google only really started to push for RCS after miserably failing to deliver a coherent messaging platform strategy and releasing Google Messages in 2019.

OK, but that's almost half a decade ago now.

> Whats more, their suposedly "open" E2EE RCS implementation is only available for Pixel and Samsung users.v

Another reason Apple should have been contributing to and working on the RCS standard instead of alienating anyone who didn't want to buy their hardware.

Honestly they should have been investigated for antitrust violations.

> Why is that?

Because iMessage is the default for apple phones and most phones in the US are Apple phones.
Cast iron is also not a problem at all to recycle -- it just gets to be woodstoves or brake rotors or more cast iron pipe or something. IMO that is one of its largest strengths as a sustainable building material.

> So this is going to seem very one sided, but if you look prior to Oct 7, you can't have peace where one side controls everything, has all the resources, and uses them to keep the other population "occupied". That is always going to breed resistance.

Except that that's not quite true. Gaza could have continued maintenance of the existing water treatment plant (for example) that was working when Israel pulled out in 2005. Instead, they elected Hamas a year or two later and began firing rockets at Israel.

It's not as simple as you're making it out to be.

> Very simply, for peace Israel should pull all the settlements out of the West Bank, pull back 50 miles from Gaza for a number of years, remove all checkpoints in the West Bank and Gaza, invest in the development of both areas, rebuild the airport they destroyed, stop and sign definitive peace accords allowing free movement and Right of Return for Palestinians, pay reparations for the destruction of Gaza and the damage to the West Bank (plus many other things that I won't list here), and finally on top of that invest in Palestine's future.

They pulled out completely, including removing every single settler, in 2005. Rebuilding is important, I agree, but if Gaza is going to run its own government, they need to, I don't know, not elect Hamas as perhaps a first-order approximation to "reasonable discourse."

Israel isn't going anywhere, no matter what hopes and dreams anyone has. That means they need someone to negotiate with, and Hamas ain't it.

In addition, the current government of Israel is garbage and I'm not sure has much interest in a two-state solution at all - but that is a separate (and important!) issue; there have been plenty of years and decades where Israel was committed to a two-state solution, and Gaza... wasn't.

Even if Israel did rebuild the airport, allow freedom of movement and right of return, and all that - what guarantees do you have that Hamas would not then just flood into Israel and partake in the destruction of every Jew? None.

And that, my friend, is the problem. It is complicated. It is not simple. You are not the first person to have suddenly found the 'secret' to this problem. To think you are, or to think that it is immensely simple, is honestly a bit arrogant, but more importantly, it's also incorrect.

The current situation is awful and absolutely terrible; but sticking our heads in the sand and pretending that only Israel is the aggressor, and that suddenly if they pulled out the problem wouldn't exist anymore, is naive at best, and misguided on avaerage.

I understand the desire to use Bluetooth, but there is a (relatively) cheap $20 adapter that uses a protocol and frequency more similar to WiFi I believe (like arctis gaming headsets if you’ve ever used those) which works much better. My experience with Bluetooth has always worked as far as connecting is concerned, but I had to use a TP Link Bluetooth adapter and disabled the motherboard Bluetooth to tell windows to use TP (it won’t assume for you). Even after being connected, I don’t think standard Bluetooth has the proper latency and bandwidth for the controller to work reliably in a crowded airspace (I live in an apartment). I will get small skips and latency spikes from time to time. The Xbox adaptor for PC makes it work basically just as effectively as connecting to an Xbox, with the only caveat being it will overheat pretty easily if you place it near an exhaust vent on the PC and are pumping hot air all around it. I put it on the front of my case and it stays cool enough there to work reliably.

Not necessarily. If you're utterly careless, sure. A MongoDB migration is far less of a headache than a SQL one (you're just writing code to map/replace values). With SQL, you have to be frustratingly surgical about everything which can slow momentum to a crawl (read: punishment for mistakes in the migration is far worse than with MongoDB in my experience).

Well a simswap attack requires the account password, since otherwise you would not be able to receive an SMS message for the two factor part.

But without two factor, only your account credentials are needed.

So yeah, it's definitely better than nothing, you are effectively forcing your opponent to social engineer your carrier, and doing that generally requires knowing the full number and usually at least your name, if not more identifying information that's harder to get, like social security number or equivalent.

Sure, TOTP or other two factor mechanisms are better because they require access to one of your authenticated devices (assuming the TOTP isn't done by a secure enclave), but SMS two factor is definitely better than disabling two factor.

It's a thought experiment. A spherical cow that demonstrates that simply measuring the aggregate death count is lossy, it assumes that the proportion of pedestrian deaths where the pedestrian is at fault remains the same in both situations which is not true, so I draw a picture which makes that glaring distinction. We need to know the details of these deaths to know which scenario is preferable. Here, reverse my scenario, the autonomous vehicles only ever kill people who jump out in front of them. That's preferable, no? Then why is the inverse not worth addressing?
