Gauges have been digital for decades now. Even in the 1990s many of them were digital not analog. Sure there was a needle so they looked analog, but the data came in digitally and them the computer on the display decided how to move the needle to whatever digital position. (I can think of 3 different ways to implement this and I'm not an electrical engineers - who I would expect to know more than me about what works)
>Might be interpreted as older languages with GC did not had value types, which is bluntly false, going back to 1970's.

Ok, but you included Common Lisp in your list, which doesn't really have value types. (E.g. you cannot make an unboxed array of structs.)
I think for us to say it's "beginning to have a significant impact on the economy", there needs to be an actual measurable increase in productivity due to AI-enabled automation, which so far has been elusive. It might be impacting employment in some specific jobs, but the mix of jobs in the economy is always constantly changing.
Yep :) Lots of products run Git on EC2/containers, e.g. GitPod or GitHub Codespaces.

> NASA seems to have a long standing tradition of sweeping problems under the rug

I can't comment on whether the premise is correct, but I think "So why is it not okay to write about this?" would be mostly due a 'tug of rope phenomenon'.

If you see a tug of rope game on an issue and are a centrist, people feel they can't go and start tugging the middle of the rope in a different axis (or from the 'opposing side'). Instead, people feel the need to go to whichever end of the rope is 'unfairly losing' in their eyes, and pull it in an existing axis to bring the centre of the rope into a range that they agree with.

Thus, in the grand scheme of things people are hesitant to call out NASA, because they feel that there too much anti-NASA or funding sentiment already.

And it's a legitimate aspect of game theory to consider (in a pragmatic / real scenario) - But it's definitely succumbing a zero-sum game model, and is a tragedy of the commons.
Sounds a bit like a ponzi scheme to me. Unless immigrants don't age?
> Which means that in a real emergency, astronauts maybe could then not open the door in time.

The lock was only installed while in orbit--where the hatch is not an emergency escape anyway.
In this video, something that amaze me and that is quite unique to UK in my opinion is how correct and respectful are the police officers.

In most countries, they would have used (and abused) of their authority to yell at the guy. Telling him that he has to shut up whatever they say even if not true. And otherwise it would be police offense.

Here, despite the tension they keep their calm, try to stay respectful and not aggressive and do what they can to defuse the situation.

In my opinion, it works very well to have the person in front reduce their aggressivity.
The whole point of the inverted pyramid was that editors/layout people could chop off the article at any point to fit the space available and have it still make sense, back when newspapers were laid out in columns and on physical pages. It's not an idealized platonic form information transfer.

The version you'll have seen is the original version that I "leaked" to someone else who wanted to run a similar site. I said they could make the code public, but I didn't want to maintain or stand by it. It underwent an entire rewrite about ten years ago which is the version that's live now and the auth flow has remained the same within that timeframe, at least, but https://github.com/omniauth/omniauth-github does the heavy lifting and has been updated as a dependency in that time.
No, this is not simply "long-form", this is "in medias res" where the story starts at a heightened moment of tension, then abruptly stops and rewinds to go back to fill in details of how they got to this exciting moment.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_medias_res

Sometimes it's done to great effect, like in Fight Club (film starts with him at the climax with a gun in his mouth, then rewinds and tells the story).

However, it is often used as a clumsy device by novice writers. They use it to get the audience to stick around for their mostly boring story.

I see this a lot on Youtube. The Youtuber will start with a compelling question and story, like "There he was... tied to the wall as he watched the firing squad load their weapons with gun powder.... But before we continue our story, what is gun powder? Well, it's composed of potassium nitrate, blah, blah, blah...."

You can tell if "in medias res" is done well or poorly by how you react to it. If you are excited for the detour, then it's done well. If instead it feels like a long annoying interruption you want to skip, then it's done poorly.

For me, it's done poorly in this article. I read the first compelling section, then the writer slows everything down to a snail's pace to go into some very dry history of NASA without ever really giving a good payoff to the story he opened with.
This statement is simply false taken by itself, but in context it makes sense:

> On the other hand we have schizophrenia, a relationality so unkept than anything and everything is packed full of meaning, connections are drawn between everything, and existence is pure pattern and relation. But, if everything means something, nothing means anything.

Words have meaning--they're supposed to. But some things aren't intended to bear meaning. Your word choice, for example, is likely not intended to bear any deeper meaning beyond that of the sentence as a whole. But I can read any amount of meaning into your word choice if I want. Maybe you use three words in a row that seem familiar or particularly elegant. So I google them, and they pop up in Das Capital! This would be, of course, entirely meaningless. But if everything has meaning, then your decision to use these words can't be mere coincidence! Suddenly I'm thinking my god, bondarchuk isn't just making an argument about cultural schizophrenia, he's carrying the war against capitalism onto the internet!

This is actually surprisingly common in the culture--just think of the prevalence of specious 'dog whistle' accusations, which allow journalists to say, with a straight face, that while politician X might be saying something perfectly harmless, or even something that you agree with, they're secretly signaling terrible things to their terrible supporters!

I would love to know the number of people who, when asked why they vote red/blue, give one of these schizo-narratives in their answer. I think the number would be shocking, and far, far higher than is required to determine the outcome of a given election.

It has me deeply concerned about the long-term viability of our political process.

I feel like this long form article did a pretty good job. History bits were paragraphed so skipping ahead was trivial if a bit of history didn't interest you.

Also the answer happened relatively early when the flow lead to the answer rather than artificially rewriting the story to bury the lead.

And the continuation after made sense and didn't overstay its welcome.
I don't think I would ever consider RSV and Parquet alongside each other. I also don't think I've ever personally had a use case where the proposed RSV format would have been a good fit. Nevertheless I found it interesting.

Even if you were to use FS, GS, RS, US, they are all parts of valid UTF-8 strings. I agree that they would be vanishingly rare in most corpi of "ordinary text". The author here is also aware of them.[0]

I found it quite an interesting idea to use bytes that are invalid in UTF-8 strings as delimiters for data that is guaranteed to be encoded as UTF-8 strings. This moves those control characters properly out of band. Out of band is a much stronger guarantee than vanishingly rare.

I don't think I'll use RSV anytime soon, but I appreciate the creativity that went into it, as well as the many implementations the author has already collected[1]. There are 31, by my count, including several that support larger ecosystems: C (everything can call into C), C# (dotnet runtime and other languages, such as F#), Java (JVM languages, such as Clojure), JavaScript (any of the many compile-to-JavaScript langs, such as TypeScript).

Your 20 year old car had digital gauges too. They just moved a mechanical needle so they looked mechanical, but it was all digital to the cluster. Now they are just replacing the cluster with a LCD.
I wonder if the use of 'ottoman' as 'footrest' in English has a similar origin story.

In hindsight counter culture (LSD being a component of this) does seem to have been the response to heightened tensions pushing us towards authoritarianism. Still relevant today.
There's very few emergencies that the lock would kill them in if used properly. Since it would only be locked once the shuttle got to space and once it would open to hard vacuum. It would be unlocked before reentry. The only other failure modes that I could think of would be if the lock was unable to be opened or the key was lost. Neither would be the end of the world, as they would have had tools available to cut or remove the lock.

Given that, I'd push for the lock to be part of standard procedure. It can't be a point of distress if it's standard procedure instead of a judgement call by the captain.

Sort of - NCP (RFC 33) had two simplex sockets.

Even being receive, odd transmit. That then led to various higher level protocols using pairs of ports. Once TCP took over, that was relaxed.

Ryan air exclusively uses 737 and as far as I know they only had 2 incidents, one being a fake bomb threat and the other (bird strikes) proving the plane was safe

Those devices really struggle to find any market fit. If your device really uses this little power, it's almost always easier to just use a small button cell battery which then easily lasts 10+ years.

It is sustainable, just not with the current polices.

At its current first world standards, Canada should be able to attract top talent from any developing country. It has practically infinite space & resources. They can selectively import a mix of medicine, education and construction professionals to make sure that services keep in touch with the rising population. Sadly, their polices are all over the place. While the US skims from the top of the Indian talent pool, Canada seems hell bent on importing the most mediocre of Indian talent.

This article does a good job of elaborating on the needles and massive hurdles faced by a foreign health-care professional, if they want to immigrate to Canada. You can complain about the shortcomings all you want, but the unwillingness to expand slots is a purely political decision. Similarly, despite having a massive housing shortage, housing remains firmly in the grasp of Canadian NIMBYs.

All social-welfarist countries will need to find ways to replace their aging workforces. Some will try to promote fertility (Hungary, Poland?) and others will try immigration. There isn't much else you can do. For once, the US had had a mature and well thought out legal immigration system. It pretty much selects for only those who can productively contribute to the economy, and that's after drawing ~$200k in tuition and ~5-10 years of uncompensated social security taxes.
If you want a Java processor, there’s a cheap one for FPGA’s here:

It’s more for embedded use. Might give someone ideas, though.
There are a few groups pursing this goal:
- People who imagine Canada as a global player. 100 million puts you in the big leagues.
- People who fear our current demographics. Given our birth rate, our pension system is bankrupt without multiple 100k new arrivals every year. An aging population does similarly bad things to our health systems.
- People who worship GDP over GDP per capita.
- Our ownership aristocrats (aka the new Family Compact, a subset of the GDP group). If you own big tracts of land, or control national chains in protected industries, then your income tends to a stable fraction of total GDP. Every new arrival is a forced customer of your monopolistic supply.

The "Skylab mutiny" really is a myth[0], as Ed Gibson said, "What were we going to do? Threaten to live on the moon?"

I don't think NASA hides incidents more than, say, the Soviet space program or its other peers. But at the same time, no organization is going to make a bigger deal out of negative events than positive ones. The media found out and reported on it, so the system is working.

I'm not sure I understand this at all.

> The problem is the way Git works, it clones your entire repository into the container with your cloud environment, using a slow network protocol.

What about git's network protocol is 'slow'?

I think I can also come up with a pretty simple experiment to prove or disprove this:
1. Fill a file with 13Gb of data and commit it.
2. Upload that to GitHub or wherever you want
3. Time how long it takes to clone and compare that to the real GitHub.com

You will find the one we made takes 'seconds' (or minutes, depending on your network connection), while the the GitHub.com will take some time.

So, same data, two different results? The difference in this experiment rules out the 'slow' network protocol as the difference maker. The real reason is that the GitHub.com repo will have hundreds or thousands of commits.

Basically, the difference is the commit history, because that's how git needs to work. Git stores the diffs for the entire commit history, not just the literal files at the HEAD. I don't know what the network protocol has to do with that.
I wonder if a company like Anker will be able to release anything sooner rather than later to help extend device use on battery.

Not in orbit. In orbit there is no scenario where you want to open that hatch. And the lock was only installed in orbit.
Not literally in those terms, but the Anti-Unfair Competition Law 反不正当竞争法 (English text: https://wipolex-res.wipo.int/edocs/lexdocs/laws/en/cn/cn409e... ) seems to often get used to accuse business model-threatening third parties of doing something illegal.

E.g. Haier could claim that the API is a trade secret that the HA integration is using illegally, or that by accessing the API, Haier's domain name is being used without authorization (though I think this is intended to combat impersonation where someone registers a domain with their competitor's name) etc. etc.

Funnily enough, it also outlaws "causing, in bad faith, incompatibility with an internet product or
service lawfully provided by another business entity".
There are a lot of variables. Pier and beam or slab? It can often be easy to run wires under the house in pier and beam, not really an option for slab. Single story?

7 is actually a huge breakthrough imo because of multi link support. It's not just 'overkill'.

It can band the various frequencies (2.4 + 5 + 6) together transparently. This is actually a huge boon for normal users, as often devices get stuck on 2.4GHz which is congested to hell even though a 5/6GHz network is available (especially on a laptop or smartphone moving around). It should shift between them transparently.

However, Windows 11 doesn't support this yet on the release version, and I have a feeling compatibility could be really poor (let's hope not). But this feature alone is a massive breakthrough for reliability of WiFi.

Also the 320MHz bandwidth on 6GHz is hugely helpful (though in the UK/EU only 1 channel is available at that channel width, in the US there is much more spectrum allocated - I believe this should change in the future though). I struggle personally to get more than 1gig/sec out of real world usage on 160MHz channels, which is a pain because I can get faster than 1gig from my router but wifi is the limiting factor.

So I would basically expect to see real world speeds (ie: not right next to the router and through a wall or two) of around 3gbit/sec on WiFi 7, compared to 1gig/sec on WiFi 6/6E - as you will have a 320MHz 6GHz channel bonded with 160MHz 5GHz (and perhaps some 2.4, but I'm not sure if it can do 'tri band' operation, I've seen conflicting information about that).
Controversy over Hugo Nomination Statistics

I'm curious to see how many people have access to mushrooms these days. For my 20s and 30s it seemed impossible to get, now all of a sudden I can get them no problem. I have a friend who is not into drugs at all but grows them, weighs them, and has a pill making machine to make pills so he can accurately micro-dose to address severe depression. I have other friends who love drugs and can get the literally anytime they want. It's shocking that they are so available now compared to even 5 years ago. Anyone else experiencing this?
I too can click the link and read the article. It’s only useless if I close my eyes.
Sure, but MU-MIMO, OFDMA, GI modulation etc... is all much more useful for time-sharing of spectrum than 4096 QAM.
I prefer digital gauges to physical ones, primarily because I can customize which ones are displayed. For example, on my previous car, roughly 40% of the cluster was populated by a tachometer that is totally unnecessary for the underpowered, automatic econobox it was in.

I still prefer physical controls over digital ones, which seemed to be conflated in your comment. I think this preference bears out in the market as well, since we're seeing some car manufacturers bring back physical controls for certain tasks.

On the other hand, there's also the blatantly counter-consumer choices that also suggest that simply ignoring what people want isn't out of the question. See GM's removal of mobile integration, Mazda's rejection of touchscreens, etc.
I was so happy that I'm still boasting about it some 25 years later!

Won't happen. They are pushing WiFi to lower range not more. A routers in each room (ideally wired, but mesh if you can get a connection is okay) won't interfere with your neighbors WiFi (you won't even realize this is the cause of problems if it is!) and allows for much faster speeds.

In both Sci-fi books and history, there's a situation where colonists get their own ideas, once they figure out they're no longer dependent on the mother country/home planet.

I hope this happens.

A cheaper and easier alternative to colonizing Mars to prevent losing all of the "human beans," if we should happen to smash the one bean jar, would be to colonize the Moon. The Moon is lacking in a lot of the elements needed to sustain human life, but in terms of orbits and energy, it's not that far from the asteroids where the rest of the elements could be found. It's also mere days away from Earth, so it would be practical to send a rescue mission if something happened, like the algae tanks all dying at once.

The moon might he a harsh mistress, but it might be an even harsher target for a space marine landing.
