This is done in many places. The problem is that a lot of silicon dies the die costs much more than the package. There’s a limit to how small you can make pins on a package for manufacturing onto a PCB, so if you need a certain number of pins, you either would need to grow the die (which is expensive) or switch to a packaged part.

Mobile phones today largely use chip scale packages that do not use any sort of wire bonding, for instance.
An explanation for the seeming discrepancy could be that the non-tippers take more rides. This would make sense, for example, if there is a population of people who take Uber very frequently (say to commute in a city) and don't usually tip. Perhaps precisely because they use the service so frequently and don't want to pay extra, or because they see the variation in driver quality and want to reserve tips for the best service.

Whereas infrequent riders (say to and from the airport) are more likely to tip universally.
Q: Who decides whether the policy focus is on the supply side or consumption side?

A: The government and its voters.

That’s it. That’s who I am going to hold accountable.

Now, the point I am making that you seem to miss is that in Canada, the supply side is the larger issue. This is because we are a net energy exporter. So hence why to most Canadians outside of Alberta, blaming the consumer while giving the oil sands a pass feels like cheap political theatre.

OTOH Albertans feel very threatened any time the government starts to talk about doing something supply side, and I think many are actually very happy to go along with the political theatre of the demand side focus because they know it doesn’t directly threaten their jobs.

What should we do in an ideal world? Target both. But if I were designing an effective climate policy and had to pick only one, I would do supply side first.

On a side note, studies have estimated that the current carbon tax levels are 5-10x too low to effectively price in the externalities due to releasing the carbon. So yes, it’s virtue signaling.
Matrix itself is a big messy thing, much like the Web - this is both its power and a potential weakness.

Element X is indeed a fancy new client - but it hasn't hit a 1.0 yet. Think of it a lot like Firefox was pre-1.0; it's unrecognisably faster and better than the previous generation... but not all features are there yet. Meanwhile, there are loads of entirely unrelated independent excellent clients out there too; it's not just about Element v Element X.

> But I wasn't able to set up the encryption with my recovery key, there was only the online validation which I couldn't use because I was on the go and didn't have access to my desktop.

This bug is an accidental thinko however: it's placeholder UI which is about to be replaced by implementing login-via-scanning-QR-code (which is almost there), but obviously that also needs the ability to enter recovery keys too. Eitherway, it's being fixed: https://github.com/element-hq/element-x-ios/issues/2424

Yup, sorry, TOFU for TLS isn't implemented yet in EX.

> The same with the homeservers, there's synapse and dendrite is supposed to take over at some point but that point is forever far in the future. And then there's conduit, so which one is it?

Synapse is a stable server where the core team is putting its effort currently. Dendrite is a 2nd gen server from the core team, but is beta and a) ended up being focused on P2P and embedded homeservers and experimental MSCs, b) is starved of resource atm due to funding pressure (c.f. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5BrVVf0B1I&t=316s). Conduit is an independent server implementation in Rust, which is promising but beta.

It's like asking whether you should use Apache httpd or beta versions of nginx or lighttpd in the early days of the Web.

> The strategy doesn't really feel well thought out in that sense.

The strategy at Element (which employs most of the Matrix core team) is pretty clear right now:

1. Improve Synapse as the most mature and stable server implementation (and package it in Element Server Suite for those needing an enterprise Matrix distro: https://element.io/server-suite)

2. Finish implementing sufficient features in Element X that it can replace the old classic Element mobile apps asap - converging on a single Rust codebase, so that bugs & audits & new features can all land in one place.

3. Keep building Element Web/Desktop and Element Call.

...and that's it.

If it seems confusing, that's either because we're in the middle of the Element -> Element X shuffle... or because the nature of Matrix is that there's loads of other independent implementations running around too. But that's what makes it fun, too :)

Could easily be that the 39% of adults that don't tip take an outsized portion of the rides.
Yeah, I agree with you. I'm a blue-sky libertarian, but libertarianism is an ideal, not a practical form of government.
A contract written by yourself (aka: Largest shareholder) given to a board you picked (aka: Chairman of the Board of Directors), giving yourself a payraise (aka: about the CEO's bonus pay) is obviously null and void.

You can't just give yourself a pay-raise. Even if you're the largest shareholder, the controlling member of the board of directors, and CEO of a company.

If you accept the public's money, then the _other_ shareholders, even small minority stakes, have a say in the matter.

If you don't like the fact that Delaware looks out for smaller shareholders, you can I guess move out to other states or something. But for the most part, people accept the fact that public companies have rules that go above-and-beyond normal. Wanton acts of corporate corruption aren't tolerated in Delaware.

--------------

The rule in play here is shareholder fiduciary duty. The Board of Directors failed to represent the needs of all of its shareholders like they are legally obligated to do. A large pay-bonus to a CEO who already controls a large stake in Tesla (who'd benefit from Tesla improving anyway) is obviously a bad move. No other CEO in history had such a large share-increase bonus.

In any case, looking out for the little guy is a deeply American value. We understand the problems associated with Tyranny of the Majority. If you want to fully own a company, then stay a private-business (like the Mars family), don't come begging to the public for public money.

Probably. In that case they should solve those problems and not engage with him.
This was the strategy used to prosecute Al Capone. IIRC, they couldn’t get enough evidence to directly charge him for his other (violent) crimes, so they built a successful case of tax evasion. With such leverage, they started to dismantle his organization, whereupon they found the evidence to press more charges.

Copenhagen Atomics' reactor fits in a 40ft shipping container and burns nuclear waste and Thorium, for example. https://www.copenhagenatomics.com/technology/ :

> Burning spent nuclear fuel
by kickstarting our reactors on long-lived "waste" left in spent fuel we're able to convert it to fission products, which only needs to be stored for 300 years

There was a presentation that suggested that a cue ball of Thorium would supply enough energy for the average bear's lifetime energy use?

Nuclear Transmutation of nuclear waste would presumably be handled like any other processing capability. If there is laser nuclear Transmutation of nuclear waste, it's presumably a near-range capability. If there is laser nuclear Transmutation of nuclear waste, that's basically a more efficient reactor design FWIU.

There are microbes that eat waste and self replicate.

Nuclear Fusion can produce He3 and ship that around as a critical input instead of enriched Uranium or nastier FWIU.

Almost everything on this planet survives directly or indirectly off solar, with thermophiles that transmute old wells into crystals being an exception.

> What you want is for smaller companies to make up a larger proportion of the economy.

Well… we could upend the foundations of capitalism to make it more likely corporations would be responsible for the well-being of society and therefore make it OK to grant them personhood.

Or we could simply not grant these things (that aren’t people) personhood.

I think it’s pretty obvious which one makes more sense.

Also, think carefully. The problem isn’t that the ownership of widely-held conglomerates is too diluted. It is that *by design* the only shared interest of the owners is the profitability of the company. This isn’t some unfortunate, unforeseen happenstance. It’s on purpose and enforced by law.

Our corporate system is designed for and the efficient allocation of capital, not the creation of good citizenal entities. Let’s recognize what it is and act accordingly.

The purpose of KYC isn't just to combat terrorism and financial crime, but also to protect businesses from the actions of unscrupulous individuals, which is common in low-trust societies. As Western society transitions from high-trust to low-trust, I predict KYC will only become more widespread.
OK, so not everyone remembers to plug it in, and when you are under pressure 10 minutes might just be a disaster, or at least very annoying.

Borrowing concepts from DB2 here
It is not what I said. I meant violence is part of being Human. If you do not use it does not mean that you do not have it. It is not about blindly applying it. It is not only a negative thing, it is an evolutionary advantage versus species which is not violent.
It is just another tool of enforcing you will over the will of others. For example some people have to obey the law because of a threat of violence of the state. I mean if you remove all our societal conditioning and learning, it all boils down to violence, like it was for first humans.
I do not advocate violence, I think hating humanity for it is not rational.
Clauzewitz said: "War is the continuation of policy with other means". So essentially violence is the continuation of policy when you can not achieve your goals by other means.
This is just my view on it, take it or leave it.

Both can be true at the same time.

rides ≠ rideRs

If the group that does not tip takes significantly more rides than the group that does tip, then this makes sense. It also makes sense that people who use the service more might be less likely to want to pay more for each trip (tip on top of the ride cost), whereas people who almost never use the service might be inclined to tip each time.

Also, those statistics are comparing different things. One is about Uber, the other is about all taxis and ride-sharing services.

OffsetDateTime would be useful for a lot of historical records. For example, if I'm chronicling a WW2 battle in the Pacific, I need to know what the local times of the events were, but I don't necessarily care about knowing the DST rules.

Additionally, most date/time serialization formats (e.g., RFC 822, ISO 3601) only allow you to specify up to OffsetDateTime and don't provide a full timezone reference like US/Eastern.
> especially when there are hundreds of primary buttons throughout the app, each with a slight variation.

If you're repeating monstrous groups of styles like the one in the blog post, but with a slight variation for each, then you're tremendously far out in the weeds and almost definitely shouldn't be using tailwind

Tailwind really only works for a component-based framework (like React, Svelte, Solid, etc.), where you define a component representing a button, and give it props to map to the 'minor variation' you want.

That way if you need to support e.g. a new device class, you just add the relevant class names there and don't have to revisit your entire codebase.

This isn't apparent at all when inspecting the source of a site using tailwind, because as far as the rendered markup is concerned, these are getting repeated (and the verbosity of the output is absolutely a fair criticism)

But if you're writing it, and organizing your components in a sensible way, then the problem you mention doesn't exist.
> You certainly seem really keen to keep dragging the question back to "what is the exact volume of blood a mosquito victim is supposed to have, anyway, huh?"

Because you avoid describing it, you avoid taking a position, so only you can have a position, but no one knows what it is, so there is no way for anyone to argue against you, so you, and only you, get to talk.

If that's your only goal then by all means, talk to yourself.

It’s hard to prove a law that has a deterrent effect, since you can see the number of people it “caught” but the people it deterred are invisible.

Statistician here. There's a deep idea called the likelihood principle https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Likelihood_principle that says all the information we can get from the data about model parameters is contained in the likelihood function.

We're talking about the whole likelihood surface here, not just the single point that's the maximum likelihood estimator. The MLE is a method for choosing a valid point estimator from the likelihood function; it has some good properties, like being consistent (if you have enough data it converges to the truth) and asymptotically efficient (converges smallest possible variance) so long as some criteria are met.

But the MLE is not the only choice; for any given model, other procedures can be admissible estimators https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Admissible_decision_rule - it's just they also have to be procedures based on the likelihood function. In other words, your procedure doesn't have to be "take the likelihood function and find its maximum" but it has to be "take the likelihood function and... do something sensible with it."

So the MLE is popular in the frequentist world where you have to make the decision rules using the likelihood directly; in the Bayesian world, you take the likelihood and combine it with a prior, to make an actual probability distribution. Then you get things like like MAP (mode of the posterior) or the Bayes estimate (expectation of the posterior) - alternatives to MLE that still use the likelihood surface.

Of course this all works only if the underlying probabilistic model is literally true. So, in the machine learning world where the models are judged on being useful on usefulness and not expected to reflect mathematical reality, you're allowed to do things inconsistent with likelihood principle, like regularization tricks. In some physics situations (astronomical imaging comes to mind) where the probability model really is governed by the rules of nature, sticking to likelihood principle actually matters.

As to the question of being small, well, the likelihood is the probability (density) of the exact data you observe given parameters. Let's say you know the true parameter (the mean and standard deviation) and you observe a thousand draws from a normal distribution. Of course the probability of observing the very same pattern of a thousand values again is overwhelmingly unlikely. But if the mean was way different, that pattern would be proportionally even more unlikely.
We should only care about relative probabilities. What's the probability that the universe evolved in exactly such a way that your cat will have exactly this fur pattern? Astronomically small. What's the probability that the universe evolved in such a way, and some of that fur ends up on your furniture? Another unimaginably small number. But what's the probability that, in a universe where you and your cat exist as you are, his fur will get everywhere? That's pretty much a certainty.
Democracy requires an informed electorate. That’s why public schools exist and why they should be well (and equally well) funded, without some schools being privileged by donations that’ll only exacerbate unequal rights to education.

I recently changed my email at a significant number of sites, as Gmail started to require phone numbers and was going to delete my accounts if I didn’t add one to some alternate addresses I had.

I didn’t run into the issue you mentioned, but I ran into the issue of Sony (for the PSN) telling me they wouldn’t delete a duplicate PSN account I had (conflicting with their support docs), after I waited 40 minutes to speak to someone. When I tried to bring up the support docs they ended the conversation.

I had a similar issue with Rockstar, where I ended up in captcha hell, having to solve 30 puzzles in a row for each login attempt or and again to get into areas of the site to change things. The site would not function. I got fed up to the point of wanting to delete my account. I don’t use it anyway. I did whatever the site said to do, and it said it could take up to 30 day(?). That was probably 3 months ago and I haven’t heard anything.

These two things make me uncomfortable deleting one of my Gmail accounts, so it’s still hanging out there.
