A couple of reasons come to mind:

1. Cops in our area are super busy handling call associated with theft, drug abuse, mental illness and homelessness that i’m not surprised they are not interested in bringing more work upon themselves by initiating contact for a relatively minor (to the above) infraction.

2. A lot of cops are into hotrods and imho the most flagrant of noise making vehicles, Harleys.

It feels like a "it wasn't that bad". But if you consider the dedicated resources, costs of pain and suffering that may have been avoided with a simpler architecture and infrastructure, I'm forced to wonder if this short comment hides a lot under the covers.

It's a little misleading to suggest that "co-production" of iron and chlorine can meaningfully save energy. Annual production of steel is about 2000 Mt, of Cl2 is about 100 Mt (a similar figure for NaOH). So you'll get many times more chlorine than the economy can presently use. You could neutralize it by a variety of processes[1], but this isn't thrifty.

IIRC there was already a thread some time ago about electrolysis of iron ore in sodium hydroxide (as reusable solvent) where I was wondering about the cost of NaOH and how much would have to be replenished per cycle. But that process easily whoops this one.

It always surprising to me when people on programming related forum, a discipline that in a sense is all about viewing the world trough different levels of abstractions, get defensive when exposed to the fact that real world also do have them. Be that sociology, history or even 'hard science', simplyfing the world is inherent to comprehending it.

Now, ofcourse, there are still 'good' abstractions and bad ones.

TFA says: "The official noted that other nations require tax agencies to verify incomes for mortgages, which isn’t the case in Canada."

I don't know if it's a legal requirement, but I sure know I had to hand over all of _our_tax information to the bank to validate income when getting a mortgage in the US. You have to sign a form saying the bank is allowed to pul your data from the IRS; you're not just handing over paperwork and promising that it's legit.
Are there significant cost savings? Remote workforce management costs a TON.

Are we able to hire anywhere? Crazy costs associated with contract and tax residency management, complexity managing timezone overlap both during hiring stage and in the workplace, etc

And frankly, you don’t need to, and you wont be able to hire the best talent unless you’re doing envelope pushing work.

I work at a “hip remote-first startup that raised a ton of money” and we still only hire from within the country we’re based in, still have to have an office + office space for remote workers that require it, and have exploded the complexity of workforce management.

I’m just not seeing the benefit to the employer. To the employees, absolutely, but not employer.
I think there might be an opinion that since most colour space conversions can be expressed with relatively small neural nets (since they are mostly accumulations of variously scaled values), the autoencoder can dedicate a negligible proportion of its parameters towards that job and that gives it the potential to choose whatever color space training dictates.

I'm not entirely convinced by this idea myself. I have seen a few networks where a range of -1..1 inputs do a lot better than inputs in the range of 0..2 even though translation should be an easyish step for the network to figure out. The benefit from preprocessing the inputs, to me seem to be more advantageous than my common sense tells me it should be.

>In a lot of software organizations with rapidly changing and undocumented requirements, there's a good chance defects will go unnoticed until they're no longer relevant, so spending a lot to find them before they're shipped is a waste.

It's really a shame that a good percentage of these applications full of bugs and "rapidly changing and undocumented requirements" don't get scrapped and stay many decades afloat until they get replaced by another application also full of bugs and "rapidly changing and undocumented requirements".

I think that that's a very sad way of seeing things honestly.

In the past the USA put the man on the moon, today repeating the same feat looks almost impossible. I bet that a lot of managers at Boeing also think that building planes like a few decades ago looks almost impossible now.
About 420 ppm, an increase of about 120 ppm in the past 100 years? This is a strange question since it is obvious that it’s heavily “looked into” and easy to look up, and simultaneously hard to figure out what rhetorical point is being made in asking people to cite it out of context.
Such a war might not necessarily be limited to Europe though, as the various alliances are spread globally, and thus the designation "World War" would again be appropriate. Anyways, my point was more that such a war would be much more unlikely with the Soviets as the hegemon across most of Europe. This doesn't preclude proxy wars from time to time of course.
It's pretty foolish to accept picture ID without being face-to-face with the person to match the two.

Even if the rest of the ID is fake, at least you have a record of that person's face; you can attest to the fact that the person who gave you the ID, whoever they may be, looks like the picture you have.
> The amount of money wasted by the rich is hilarious

You're repeating bullshit - The majority of spending in New Zealand is not by the wealthy but by the rest of the majority of kiwis[1].

If people earning less than $100k waste 5% of their income, and people earning more than $300k waste 50% of their income, then the people earning less than $100k are wasting more.

We're not in the USA with Jeff Bezos, so your point just makes no sense.

The majority of earners I know blow more than single digit percentages on unnecessary crap and luxury. For example my working class friends that spend more than 10% per week on booze and drugs - plenty of people spending more than $150 with a weekly income <$1500.

Look around you and there are obviously not a lot of superyacht stores. Plenty of booze shops doing a roaring trade and it isn't the $300k+ earners in them.

The wealthy people I know invest. If those investments are bringing foreign income into New Zealand, we already tax that and all New Zealanders win!

The government needs to get rid of the bad property investment incentives - those are where the wealthy are fucking over the non-wealthy. We have enough land and resources in New Zealand for everyone to have their own home.

Don't discourage people from investing in things that make New Zealand better off. Our taxation system discourages founding internationally competitive businesses, and it discourages owning more than $50k in overseas shares. And the majority of New Zealanders don't give a shit because the majority don't begin such businesses and they are ignorant about where their income to buy imports ultimately comes from.

Negative incentives matter, probably more than positive incentives. We all want to slowly tax the well off until they leave or until they are no longer well off.

>And due to how the rules were written then the VP, his successor, was his political opponent. Who rolled back almost every law he passed. In hindsight the US election system saw the bug in their system, but it was still too late.

The "second place in the presidential election becomes VP" system ended with the Twelfth Amendment in 1804.

Johnson was VP because Lincoln and the Republicans picked him as a compromise candidate to show solidarity with the South. Something that somewhat backfired after Lincoln's assassination.

> Better by what metric? Better for whom?

From Derek Parfit's On What Matters, chapter 126 (Has It All Been Worth It?):

> If someone dies a slow and painful death, it would have been both better for this person, and impersonally better, if this person’s life had ended earlier. The last part of this person’s life was worse than nothing, or in itself bad. We can reach similar conclusions about the whole of someone’s life. If someone’s life contains much prolonged suffering, and nothing or little that is good, it would have been both better for this person, and impersonally better, if this person’s life had ended just after it started. Things may be in one way different if we suppose instead that this person’s life had never even started. Perhaps we could not claim that this alternative would have been better for this person. But when we ask which alternative would have been impersonally better, there is little difference between these two comparisons. Since it would have been better if this person’s life had stopped just after it started, it would also have been better if this person’s life had never started. In other words, it would have been impersonally better if this wretched person had never existed. And since such claims make sense when applied to one person, they also make sense when applied to all conscious beings, or to the whole of reality.

Parfit thinks it was/is worth it, given the good things in life, and using future improvements in QoL as one of the arguments.

I don't. What amount of pathos, pleasure, love, beauty, could justify the life and suffering of even one person who say, was raped and murdered in childhood? It would be very difficult to justify the creation of a world given that tradeoff, but people are much hesitant to accept that it is unjustified now that it already exists.

People like to rag on Kubernetes for it's complexity, but this is the exact sort of scenario where k8s really does shine.

The answer to "which machines are important" is "only enough to provide the resources to run everything". You can kill whatever nodes you like just so long as there is enough of them to keep the cluster health and k8s will simply migrate workloads where they need to be.

That being said, storage is still an issue. Perhaps NAS is the one place where you might mark "these are the important machines".
