> Good. Then more people will choose different forms of transportation or internalize their costs.

That's not really how it goes. This assumes that if you make it painful for people to do what you don't like (park), they'll stay and live the way you want.

But no, people will simply abandon the area due to inconvenience. The area I mentioned above (previous post) went from a nice affluent residential area to a dilapidated area where only the poor and university students (also poor) lived. Everyone who could afford to leave, left.

Humans will always look for a better solution for themselves unless you impose a complete dictatorship. It is not possible to advance a cause (whether it be less cars or more public transit or better EV support or better bike paths, etc) by simply making the status quo inconvenient. People will simply avoid it.

You advance a cause by making the new alternative actually more attractive, then the majority of people will happily adopt it.

"OMG! The North Koreans are supplying Russia with weapons, just like the UK is supplying Ukraine with weapons. How terrible! Oh, the Humanity!"

Do the British think the rest of the world is stupid, or something? Britain still thinks it's the World's Strongest Superpower like it was 120 years ago. Whereas in reality it's about a fourth-tier country.
The US Navy is putting a lot of research into directed energy weapons (DEW) for this purpose. The primary intent behind these is to offer a low-cost and "deep magazine" for taking out missiles and drones. There's a few demonstrators out there on various ships with systems like these in the trial stage.

One big advantage to DEW over interceptors which the Navy likes is that it isn't another magazine hit risk like conventional missiles and gun ammunition is. Another is that even if the ammo is cheap, it takes up space which is limited on a ship. This presents challenges when operating in areas like the South China Sea or Persian Gulf where countering attacks from land would be likely. Even if the interceptors are cheap, deeper magazines by an attacker on land can simply exhaust the supply on the naval ship. DEW has the potential to rectify this.
The DCS game provide interesting simulations of how different combat styles and doctrines play out.

An early take away is that CIWIS and other close range air defense are broadly ineffective in a major engagement. They provide a necessary short range component which can be effective in limited circumstances-but little more.

Likewise, armor is ineffective as it is always possible to use/build a bigger bomb. However speed is effective at making long range strikes harder.

IMO the useful observation in the article is the cost difference between US, Japanese, and South Korean ships. I’d be curious to understand whether this is purely due to efficiency, or a difference in war doctrines and missions.

I recently listened to an interview with Joe Brumm, the creator of Bluey, on the podcast "How Other Dads Dad". He said this is a common criticism, and he thinks a fair one.

The problem is his aim was never to be an educational show for parents, but to be an entertaining show. It wouldn't be as entertaining if Bandit didn't play with the kids all the time.

So yeah, although it is a great kid's show and a much better example of parenting than other shows...we should keep in mind it's ultimately entertainment, not a parenting bible.

Agree. Xv6 is the reason why I used C. I learnt more about various OS concepts (process scheduling, file system etc) by hacking Xv6 code. Linux is too complicated for my taste.

As a mobile app dev, I don't use C. Well.... I do. Very ocasionally though. Only for interacting with specific Android hardwares.

Yes, there are apps that sell something from the web and hide it behind a login in their app, and that's the whole functionality. I don't think that's in dispute. There are screenshots of other examples in the dhh article (maybe one is from your company's app.)

A) The person I was responding to was blatantly making things up, refused to engage with what I quoted, and proceeded to only describe fictional scenarios or misrepresentations based on a comment in the article. I doubt this would’ve made a difference.

B) Irrelevant. Companies have people in all different kinds of roles collaborating with each other. What matters is the nature of that collaboration in terms of classifying them as co-workers (i.e. employed by the same company) or contractor and customer. The NLRB looked at this and said the way Google and the “contractors” worked together made them jointly employed by Google, as I quoted directly from the filing.

C) I’m not hung up on it, I just find it obnoxious that someone chose to a. not read the filings b. pretend to know what they’re talking about while demonstrating a remarkable ignorance of the law and the specifics of the case c. justified doing so with appeals to fictional janitors multiple times. I’m harping on it because how it’s demonstrative of how stupid the whole “argument” was.
It seems likely that most of the cost difference comes down to the US ships being built at shipyards that specialize at working with the US Navy and the others being built at shipyards that mostly competitively build commercial vessels.

Information Closure Theory of Consciousness (2020)
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/342956066_Informati...

> However, only information processed at specific scales of coarse-graining appears to be available for conscious awareness. We do not have direct experience of information available at the scale of individual neurons, which is noisy and highly stochastic. Neither do we have experience of more macro-scale interactions, such as interpersonal communications. Neurophysiological evidence suggests that conscious experiences co-vary with information encoded in coarse-grained neural states such as the firing pattern of a population of neurons. In this article, we introduce a new informational theory of consciousness: Information Closure Theory of Consciousness (ICT)

combination of two things; first, we came up with new ways to get oil out of the ground, so it extended the deadline considerably. second, economic growth and oil burning decoupled, so instead of needing more and more oil we hit a steady number.

> No one is prohibiting Alice from building the 10-story parking structure. The change is she's no longer required to build it.

Alice is a smart capitalist and will build two apartment buildings instead, maximizing profit from selling the units.

By the time the buildings are completed, the mortgages signed and the people start moving in and fighting for parking, Alice is long gone, moved on to the next project in some other city.

This is the problem parking minimums were intended to help reduce.
From Wikipedia: "Anecdotal reports concerning ibogaine's effects appeared in the early 1960s. [...] In 1992, Eric Taub brought ibogaine to an offshore location close to the United States, where he began providing treatments and popularizing its use. [...] The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) began funding clinical studies of ibogaine in the United States in the early 1990s, but terminated the project in 1995. Data demonstrating ibogaine's efficacy in attenuating opioid withdrawal in drug-dependent human subjects was published by Alper et al. in 1999. [...] Ibogaine treatment clinics have emerged in Mexico, Canada, the Netherlands, South Africa, and New Zealand, all operating in what has been described as a "legal gray area""

In theory, correctly filtered PWM or PDM at a correct modulation rate is identical to the original audio (nyquist-shannon). In practice the square waves produced have so much harmonic content that you need a good filter (like the active opamp filter in the article), and the simple RC filter that a lot of these projects use will sound terrible due to their long cutoff slope.

Very high fidelity sigma delta DACs are filtered PDM, they just use high modulation rate and good filters.
Shipbuilding inefficient and the lack of onshore critical supply chain are two symptoms of the same problem: whether it's chips, shells, or ships: production capacity is critical in any prolonged conflict - which is something we've been agnostically gutting and impeding. It's desirable that we be able to build ships well[0] because being able to build ships well (or not) is a reasonable proxy for being able to build drones, fighter planes, or ballistic missles (whatever the next war calls for).

[0]Read: unacceptable for it to be otherwise for a superpower that would like to stay one. Actually cranking out ships is another thing but the capacity needs to be there (and tested/validated accordingly).

I can't recommend Al Dente enough. Apparently I'm only at 134 cycles with 92% capacity*. M1 max is 26 months old. I have used a work computer for large portions of time obviously.

* TBH the capacity seems a bit low for my cycle count. Possible I've let it sit around 30% for too long at points. Such is the scourge of living in San Diego with the highest kWH rates in the country and only trying to charge at night or on weekends. I cry inside when I see people quoting 12c/kWh. Try 50c-1.20 depending on time of day/year.
My son (11) has started playing games using Steam, on Linux. It works great.

I've now got two other Linux machines set up for my daughters (7 and 9).

I'm not excited about purchasing the same games for each kid.

Can I use the same account on three computers independently? Or, would something like this script come in handy?

I don't want to run afoul of the Steam license. And, I feel it would be fair to let one kid play a game while the other kid isn't, on their own independent computer system.

Any advice here?

Great tool OP, thank you.
Possible fears about compromising the host system are of course justified. But such fears are appropriate for all DMA-capable devices, for example.

FPGAs are general purpose in a broader sense than CPUs or (GP)GPUs. And, no other general purpose computing device is able to transport and compute incoming data in a pipeline in a few cycles (10, 100, whatever) from input to output. 30Gbyte per second? No problem. Under certain circumstances even guaranteed on a normal PC. A general interface such as a BIOS mapped into the memory would be interesting for many applications.

Apple has taken a good step with the Afterburner (like others before it in the music and movie sector).

After the coin hype, FPGAs once again disappeared into the niche of high-frequency trading, only to become popular in the low-price spectrum of chips for console emulators in recent years. No cloud provider has managed to bring FPGAs to the masses. Intel and AMD have bought the market leaders and have blown all efforts to achieve something in the data centers.

AMD seems to take the first step: introduction of a general interface. The directly necessary next step would be something like CUDA (apart from IP, the name once stood for "Compute Unified Device Architecture") instead of VHDL or Verilog. It doesn't even have to be open source. It has to be something where you can compile a demo program (Mandelbrot and RISC V and 68030) in five minutes and get it running (and don't always tell everyone that it's called "synthesizing"). On a PC with a typical graphics card, place & route would be much faster. But not with a tcl/tk interface in Java as with Vivado.
Fun (but not particularly useful fact) is you can also represent x OR y as 1 - (1 - x)(1 - y). This shouldn't be too weird since x OR y is equal to NOT ((NOT x) AND (NOT y)).
>The oldest game still available (counting by which date it was made available on Steam) is the original Counterstrike with a game ID of 10. Games 1 through 9 aren’t on the platform anymore, and I’m sure they are far from the only games deleted from the platform.

For what it's worth, IDs 1 through 10 are a mix of test depots, libraries, and such.

OpenHAB comes in a container as well.

OpenHAB abstracts all of your devices. So your light switch can directly interact with Spotify , or your tv input can influence the color of your Philips hue bulbs. I know that is not a good example but it exemplifies the integration between different objects you may want to automate. This is native, you can also do scripting to support custom actions as well, which is based on JavaScript. Then you can build many different uis. You can have the home assistant-esque UI or you can build your own ui complete with custom css and js to give a completely unique interface to your automation environment.

Also notifications aren’t locked behind a paywall with openHAB. OpenHAB cloud is free, or you can launch your own OpenHAB cloud container and self host notifications (assuming you get the relevant Apple/android api keys)

I'd say Java named them appropriately. While you are right that they almost cover the same intent, error state is not dependent, whereas checked exceptions force a dependency on the caller[1]. They are not quite the same thing.

[1] Ish. If we are to be pedantic, technically checked exceptions are checked by the exception handlers, not the exceptions themselves. If you return a 'checked' exception rather than throw it, Java won't notice. However, I expect for the purposes of discussion we are including exception handlers under the exception umbrella.

> The local residents need to retaliate with requiring permits for street parking. Fight fire with fire.

This is what happens, and exactly what happened near here. All neighborhoods within a mile or so of the university require permits for street parking.

But here's the thing, fighting fire with fire does not lead to a nice society. Now it's a huge pain to visit any friends within that zone because they have to shuffle their cars (with resident permits) to the street so guests can park on their driveway to avoid being ticketed. When you fight fire with fire you also get burned. Lose-lose.
I am hoping that the modern world is not one single system that can crash all at once, but is rather many systems, such that a crash leaves room for new things to grow bigger
Your line "Sure — if I fail, I’ll just use that position as a stepping stone to my next executive role" indicated a certain cynicism in your own post, so I was reflecting that in my response.

So here's the more detailed sincere response, based on experience working in a similar large, similarly dysfunctional technology company (and also knowing people who spent several years at Boeing specifically):

It is usually not possible for a chief executive to fix a company. The reason is simply sheer complexity. A company of 100,000 people has potentially 100,000! (factorial) different working relationships within it. In practice it's less because not everyone communicates with everybody else, but even a small department of 100 people has more different relationships than anyone can possibly keep track of. No one executive is going to know every single employee, every team, every project. And without them having those personal relationships, they don't have enough trust to convince people to alter their behavior.

If the company is in trouble in the first place, that means that the way they do business is no longer adapted to the marketplace. So you need to get the company to make changes. But if you root cause each individual problem, you find that the company is fractally fucked up. The employee is usually acting according to the incentives available to them; if they did things differently, they would fail to get the cooperation needed to accomplish their goals (at best) or lose their job (at worse). And that's the key part: in a big company, achieving any goal, regardless of how small, requires the cooperation of many different people. In a normal functioning company things mostly work because these habits of cooperation grew up in good times, working culture & processes adapted themselves to the activities that actually made the company money, and so when people just do their jobs good things basically result. But as the company grows and ages, it ossifies. Over time they want to do things like introduce a new jetliner, but find that the right combination of people with the right skillsets to do things like make engine nacelles that don't explode no longer exist.

This is why advice for turnaround CEOs is "get the wrong people off the bus and the right people on the bus". And they frequently hire outsiders, or folks from much earlier in the company's history. Their first task is to stabilize finances.
Their next task is to identify the parts of the company that are still functional, then double down on them (often made harder because these folks were often laid off as part of stabilizing finances). Their next task is to sell off or lay off all the folks that are embedded in organizations that are no longer serving the company's purposes. Remember that there are > 100K employees, and you're building a product of exceptional engineering complexity, and that nobody knows everything the company is doing. It's pretty hard to have enough visibility into the company's product, engineering, supplier relationships, employee base, finances, etc. to do this correctly.
