It's somewhere in-between: residential solar, when feeding back into the grid, is only using a small fraction of the transmission compared to a commercial solar plant (in terms of length of wiring and number of transformers used to transmit a given amount of power). In fact, it will generally be (unless in a neighbourhood where nearly every house has solar installed) reducing the overall load on the grid. So it's not reasonable to expect that the value of that electricity is the same as that of the same amount coming from a large utility, but it's still probably not worth retail prices, either (though maybe it is, in certain circumstances. In cases with a very overloaded grid it may conceivably be worth more!)

DoD did not really invent anything, but they have financed the research required to invent things according to their requirements, without which the things enumerated by you might have been invented only decades later.

All the modern semiconductor industry, including the discovery of transistors and of solar cells, has its origin in the research done during WWII, mostly at Bell Laboratories, to make improved detectors for the military radars, which lead to the development of the technologies needed to make pure germanium and pure silicon and of semiconductor diodes made with them.

Without DoD money, an electronic computer of the complexity of ENIAC would have been built only many years later. Nevertheless, both ENIAC and the British cryptographic electronic machines (and the Atanasoff computer) have been enabled by the invention of various kinds of electronic digital counters during the decade that has preceded WWII (mostly in UK), all of which had been invented for the use in experiments for the study by physicists of radioactive substances and of cosmic radiation, so there are also decisive civilian contributions (like also the discovery of nuclear fission as a precondition for the nuclear bombs and reactors).

> 1000kg of lead at 1500m high is about 4kWh of potential energy. 1000kg of Lead-Acid batteries is about 25 kWh of potential energy. I suppose you could put the batteries on a cable for the extra 4kWh but I suspect the complexity isn't worth it.

That's just so well said. Should be the top comment every single time this dumb idea is surfaced.

I'm convinced now people are pulling stunts like this just to make renewables look bad.

I bought an iPhone last year. I started regretting it after 3 months of usage. Trivial things are a burden to set up, like:

- custom ringtone;

- emulators;

- lock screen rotation in landscape;

- listen to music from local storage without an Apple subscription;

I could go on and on. Most of them have solutions, but again, a burden to configure compared to an Android device. My next smartphone will be Android, once again. I just wish small smartphones were more common and had battery life comparable to Apple's.

I bought a second hand MacBook Pro 2015 to use Linux on. I'll let Asahi cook a bit more before moving to an M series.
Hence mention of a large population who lost those parts. The actual detriment may not be identifiable in a random individual, but it will show up at scale, as the noise of other confounders will average out.

And how would they deliver? By the time they get a device (untested), every entrance to underground facilities would have been destroyed with persistent aerial coverage for follow on strikes to make sure they stay destroyed. If TW was credibly trying to nuclearize, both US/PRC would be coordinating to try stop it because PRC would directly attribute TW nuclear use to US negligence.

Realistically if PRC seriously think they haven't eliminated TW nuke production, they'd throw their entire airlift capabilites and drop 50-100k troops a day into the grind and if that doesn't work, nuke TW first and send in NBC teams to an uncontested husk of an island to clean up. If US+co materially impacts that effort and PRC ends up eating a nuke, then we're in global MAD territory.

Also consider nukes has hasn't deterred PRC from security interests less important than TW, they fought US (really all of UN in Korea) /USSR/India, threatened UK over HK, supplied Vietcon against French. If risking nuclear war is what it takes, then they'll (if history is teacher) risk nuclear war.

> Pairing senior and junior devs works. But not because the junior is an idiot, but because they have stuff to learn.

I agree so much. The "dead sea effect" or whatever is just a lack of knowledge transfer. This problem remains over time too, eg look at the use of Cobol in the banking sector. Newer talents dont tend to learn old stuff. So what else is left for management to do in the long term than document really good and train newbies. If you think "migration", consider the timing, when the lack of knowledge already becomes pressing.

"[...] that can to the job better" is the key phrase here though.

It's probably a bit misguided in the sense that, if the end-result further down the line is the "more machines than humans driving in the streets" (let alone zero humans), then it might have made more sense to iteratively change the infrastructure instead, rather than have machines try to work under infrastructure that is designed to be good for humans but bad for machines, and then try to "iteratively improve" under conditions that carry significant risk of injury.

Even public transportation would benefit greatly from reliable self-driving.

Shortage of bus/tram/train drivers is a major bottleneck all across Europe, especially in places where they just can't offer competing wages and lose their drivers to the richest cities of the EU. Rural Bulgaria will never be able to pay their drivers as much as Vienna or Munich can. Not even third of that, the economic gap is just too big.

Many of the current drivers are in their 50s and 60s and with the bad demography of the continent, situation is likely to worsen in the near future.

With self-driving buses, you would be able to add more connections, as shortage of drivers would cease to become a factor, plus the cost of running the service per km/mile would be reduced with the salaries going away from the budget.

Today, even a flu epidemics will mess up the reliability of the system. If one in five drivers calls in sick, canceled services will skyrocket. Nothing like waiting on a desolate windy stop in subzero conditions for half an hour only to find out that the bus just didn't arrive, period. Been there, done that. (A perfect way to fall sick too, by the way.)

VirtualBox KVM Public Release
For the past few months we have been working hard to provide a fast, reliable and secure KVM backend for VirtualBox. VirtualBox is a multi-platform Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM) with a great feature set, support for a wide variety of guest operating systems, and a consistent user interface across different host operating systems.

Cyberus Technology’s KVM backend allows VirtualBox to run virtual machines utilizing the Linux KVM hypervisor instead of the custom kernel module used by standard VirtualBox. Today we are announcing the open-source release of our KVM backend for Virtualbox.

> Cars don’t just appear magically next to you.

They don't, but: 1. Your perception is not perfect. 2. A truck passing you means there was a blind spot and you have no idea what was there. 3. There are areas with many lanes merging / splitting, where it takes most of your attention to know where you're going; little left to track everything around.

Tracking your surrounding is great. Accepting that you're going to make mistakes, adjusting for that and also allowing assistive tech is even better.

Lisp comes from List Processor.

Scheme was first called Schemer, which itself evolved out of the Planner language developed by Carl Hewitt at MIT. Schemer was shortened to Scheme to fit the ITS filesystem's six character filename limit (!) on the PDP-10.

Racket is a kind of Scheme. (I like this one)

Guile comes from Guy L. Steele, one of the initial Scheme developers. The other being Gerald Jay Sussman.

Thinking out loud here, but why sand and not water? Yes, water is only 1000kg/m^3, but probably much easier to transfer around using pumps and pipes. Water can make good use of the horizontal space within the mine, unlike sand. (The graphic in the article shows them using conveyor belts or trucks to move the sand horizontally which seems silly.) Thus the mine could basically be a mini pumped hydro power station, build a new reservoir at the top and use the mine as the bottom reservoir, then pump water water between the two.
I think there is some ideology attached to how "normal" that would be, and whether someone accepts the "mascot" analogy.

If society were very focused on worker's rights and the recognition of the necessity of labor, such as in an idealized socialist society or a society with a predominance of worker cooperatives in the economy, then the idea of having a monarch or CEO of a company standing in front of the hard work of people whose names are not mentioned and whose faces are not pictured would seem absurd. You would expect and indeed commonly see photos showing many workers in front of the item in question.

Just as an example I went to the wikipedia page for the Tennessee Valley Authority, and it was quick to find what I would expect: a photo of a large group of workers in front of a dam they constructed:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tennessee_Valley_Authority#/me...

Or you might find a focused photo of a worker who is one of the people who built the thing, and representative of the type of workers on the project:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tennessee_Valley_Authority#/me...

I say this just to say, sure it can "make sense" but I think this is an artifact of the world we live in, where we have a hierarchical government and most firms in our economy are themselves hierarchical in nature. And so when the person at the top of the hierarchy stands for a photo op in front of the thing, we naturally accept that they serve as a "representation" of the output of the company.

But someone with a more worker-focused view would be more inclined to see that and find it off-putting. For the photo of Sundar Pichai up thread, I do in fact find it irritating that they don't even mention the people who were involved with the project he is standing in front of. And wouldn't you know it, I am a very pro-worker in inclination.
Yeah, I did read the article, and it is exactly why I think it's not organic: are there really that many people interested in Tucker "not 'stating actual facts' about the topics he discusses and is instead engaging in 'exaggeration' and 'non-literal commentary'" Carlson and what would Putin - the dictator of a geopolitically major country, with state media, official and unofficial channels doing go his every bidding for twenty years now - have to say?

I think the issue here is, you probably can't apply the same logic to consciousness.

It's the medium through which we understand, comprehend and chip away things. It's the medium in which the world appears. It's the medium in which "you" exists or think exists.

Extraordinary evidence is required to make a claim that firing of neurons, which we perceive and understand through consciousness is what causes consciousness.
