I've been relatively convinced that, in the absence of some very major tech breakthroughs that are not even yet on the horizon, lab grown meat will not make sense except in extremely niche applications, perhaps even to the extent of it only being a thing where rich people buy lab grown versions of endangered/extinct animals.

Modified plant proteins like Beyond Meat and/or the kinds of organisms you describe seem to be a much closer, easier, and more likely near-to-medium term solutions. And I say that as someone who would love nothing more than for lab grown meat to succeed and someone who has made a variety of sacrifices and to both eat less meat and when I do eat more sustainable and ethical meat (to the satisfaction of my own personal morals).

If they did that, we'd still have the 80 hour work weeks from the 1800s (with the same pay or worse).
A lot of people these days are into the mode of order online. Certainly there are a ton of podcasts that offer deals on some of the online furniture companies. I don't think I'd personally do it but then my parents probably wouldn't have ordered a lot of stuff online that I do. (But furniture and big electronics appliances are arguably much more of a hassle to return than other things.)
Microsoft has a mobile mouse that’s pretty flat. It doesn’t look like a gaming mouse, but simply having 2 distinct buttons and a wheel will make it infinitely better than the Magic Mouse for games.

Yes, luckily. If they did, it would have broken after four years, and would have needed a second nuclear battery due to the inefficient code.
Israel wasn't founded by Britain. The UN is effectively what created Israel.

Britain acquired the region ("Mandatory Palestine") after WWI as a temporary measure to govern it until it was self-sustaining; that never happened, and in the wake of WWII, they mostly just wanted out of the situation and left the UN responsible. The UN voted on a partition plan - and the UK actually abstained from that vote.

In the mid 80s I had a sofa and wing-back chair made by a little factory called Bader and Fox(?) in Portland OR. I went to the factory (the two owners were the only ones there) and picked out fabric/style/etc with some special instruction about the angle of the arms and stiffness of the stuffings. Cost about $1600.

Best furniture ever. Carted across the country twice. I still use both pieces every day. They've been reupholstered once.
Personally I go work somewhere else, University or a coffee shop, preferably far from home so I can't be home again in 15 minutes. If needed you can also use a blocker in smartphone and laptop.

At home with my desktop computer I just can't get focused, I end up on youtube, twitter, etc... in a public setting you have peer pressure not to start watching memes or whatever, plus you get the benefit of the "ritual" or "context switch" of commuting and working in a different space.

I'm far from productive or a master at focus though and I'm still learning and working on it, but this works when I just can't seem to concentrate for 5min at home.
Oh yeah? I’ll add it to my list. I’ve served and I was thinking of passing on it.

Luckily I was well versed before I showed up to Uncle Sam’s doorstep. Catch-22 paints paints a good picture. And had a high counselor who was a Vietnam vet and said Apocalypse Now was the most realistic Vietnam movie he’d. And I can’t say that my experiences in were too far from my expectations.

I think the thing people don’t get about the military, at least speaking of my experience in the US’s, is even in places like special operations units and doing the stuff that reads great in a newspaper, often enough there’s an absolute, epic, comedic shitshow going on inside with a cast of characters that you couldn’t even do justice to in a goofball comedy. Suppose that might apply to lots of things. Luckily, no military really has to have their shit together, they just gotta be better than the other side.
Agree that this statement is way off, but the rest of the article is hardly "nonsensical." Did you stop reading here?
Go is one of the best language in term of tooling, it has just one binary that contains everything, I don't know any other language that includes out of the box all of that:

- testing

- benchmark

- profiling

- cross compilation ( that work from any platform, like compiling a windows .exe from your raspberry pi for example )

- some linting

- documentation

- package mgmt

- bug report

- code generation

- etc...

Java is probably more advanced in some fields ( like tracing / profiling ) but it lacks others.
Oh where is that?

I very much enjoyed Nasi Gudeg in Yogyakarta, Indonesia where it is also treated as a traditional ingredient rather than a meat replacement.
PascalCase for public variables, camelCase for private variables. Just to keep you on your toes.
I guess that requires that you work somewhere that employs a data scientist/ml engineer and Python programmers. My government job sure doesn’t have that.
> I love go, but I hate CamelCase so much that I often find myself using a thesaurus to find better names for my structs and functions

what does one have to do with the other? also yeah I agree, CamelCase is awful. for a while I was doing:

Camel_Case

but it just didnt fit with anything, so now I use:

CamelCase // just the normal style, for public identifiers
snake_case // for private identifiers

but, I do not respect acronyms, as keeping them hurt readability I think:

What no one ever told you about people who are single – Bella DePaulo [video]
Well, hate to tell you this, but it’s generally not much different in a lot of the professional world either. The amount of bullshit I’ve had to deal with to make $20k hardware work mostly reliably still boggles the mind.

From the article: Design your APIs for someone as smart as you, but less tolerant of stupid bullshit.

One of the most painful parts of doing this professionally is that the people that work at a few of our vendors are incredibly smart and are selling us hardware that we can’t really get anywhere else, but they’re generally Electrical Engineers or Optical Engineers or Physicists and don’t even realize that the APIs they’re providing are bad. You file a bug, they tell you you’re holding it wrong, you point out the footgun in the API, and they come back and ask what that even means.

…It’s not until you debug their closed source library using Ghidra and tell them they missed a mutex in a specific function that they start treating you as anything more than a moron.

Anyway </rant>
Yes they do. My local center will give a tour to a group of 6 or more. I haven't put a group together yet, but it's on my list.
- You like meat, but don’t want to eat it for ethical reasons.

- You like meat, but don’t want to eat it for religious reasons.

- You like meat, but don’t want to eat it for environmental/sustainability reasons (this is arguably a subset of the ‘ethical reasons’ one)

- You like meat, but it is too expensive (expect this one to get more common as water shortages and emissions reduction initiatives bite; it takes a _hell_ of a lot of water to produce a kilo of beef…)

- You like meat, but it is too high-risk (we keep having these run-ins with zoonotic diseases, you will note; what if cows are an ideal carrier for the next COVID? If we were in the habit of eating mustelids we’d probably already be having that conversation.)

I mean, there are _lots_ of potential reasons.
Would be pretty easy for a motivated corporation to set up a branch composed entirely of those indigenous people for the purpose, or to form a partnership with a company of those indigenous people.
If it's not Canada's land then can I come in there and break laws and say Canadian law doesn't apply because it's not Canada?

I don't know to what degree indigenous people have integrated their laws with Canada but it seems utterly obvious that any degree to which Canadian law and customs aren't applying is the degree to which indigenous laws and customs do apply so whatever else, "no, this doesn't mean a rando can do what they want".

You have a narrow view of socialism - it's a broad tent and in many ways neither Russia and the USSR nor China during the great leap forward are representive of what most socialists aim for.

Regardless of your thoughts on the matter, 100 years ago in the USofA :

Unlike the American Federation of Labor, the Industrial Workers of the World opposed the First World War. The American Protective League (APL) was a pro-war organization formed by wealthy Chicago businessmen. At the height of its power the APL had 250,000 members in 600 cities.

In 1918, documents from the APL showed that ten percent of its efforts (the largest of any category) were focused on disrupting the activities of the IWW. The APL burgled and vandalized IWW offices, and harassed IWW members. Such actions were illegal, yet were supported by the Wilson administration.

a quarter million self described capitalists were openly attacking self described socialists.

Industrial Workers of the World: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_Workers_of_the_Worl...

The philosophy and tactics of the IWW are described as "revolutionary industrial unionism", with ties to socialist, syndicalist, and anarchist labor movements.

Neither of us get to "yeah, but..." and redefine what the wobblies a century ago described themselves as, nor what their opponents used as a slur.
Genuine question. Why do you do this?
I owned a bunch of mid-century Danish/Swedish furnitures, and they're generally pretty light. They tend to have slimmer profiles for the "modern" appearance, so less material. Also solid wood tend to be lighter than engineered wood.
Huh? I very clearly said what would get you through the audit is not breaking the law. Are you ok?
No. Getting the data on the client's DB, filestore, or similar. For some ERPs we create insert queries, others have import functions.
Here's the closest thing to an 'unwarning' that can exist, which is a tl;dr of the history:

The experimental label is a historical compromise because flakes, which was conceived by the original author of Nix (who is still a maintainer), was a major change merged to master without going through the whole Nix community RFC process (which was then in its infancy).

So it was added, but tucked away behind an 'experimental' designation and enablement flag. This proved controversial at the time and perhaps still is among old timers, but in the interim flakes have become enormously popular with new users (probably most people who picked up Nix in the past 3 years or so).

Third-party adoption of flakes has by now reached the point that the vast majority of big tools in the Nix ecosystem support it well. Some interfaces are still officially unstable but serious breakage is pretty rare. The flakes implementation in the codebase is very usable but still incomplete and still a bit buggy, and straightening out the kinks in the implementation as well as stabilizing the interfaces (both for Nix code and the CLI) is careful, patient work under way right now.

Hence the common recommendation to just use 'em unless you have deep Nix knowledge and a specific reason not to.
Teehee

I wrote about this after my gag order expired. GM was shipping all telematics data to a big data cluster processing 100gbps of data (with double the data once Cisco released 400gbps support). Originally it was to help price their used cars. A noble effort I supported. I didn’t know about the sales to insurance brokers, but should have assumed that was coming.

Anyway cat is out of the bag, they won’t undo this feature they will pay a fine, offer an opt-out to 5% of users who take up the offer and in 10 years time everyone will assume their driving habits are being monitored by their insurance company.

How do I know this? It’s been 10 years since the hoopla about realtime location data being sold. Last night I saw my home IP address reports my location with .25 mile accuracy. Guess that $5 check from Verizon was the fine they had to pay!
Huh? Business class coax in my area is 1 Gb down. And yes, it does reach those speeds. Are you thinking of DSL?
> Front-and-center political takes ... It's a strange thing

Nah, it isn't. The same way it isn't strange that Google and Microsoft CEOs repeatedly visit Israel and praise its occupying forces for its "innovations" and "resilience" due to the "unique challenges" their neighbors pose (pay no attention to the oppression), making the desert bloom (pay no attention to the graveyards), providing them with opportunities to invest in the Startup Nation. If not, how many times have you felt "less likely to embrace" software from these companies?

> makes me less likely to embrace

Completely at ease with actual genocidal rhetoric on Israeli tech twitter (see tweets by PHP's creator Zeev Suraski or by OpenAI's Tal Broda, for example), but a banner for freedom... that's a step too far.

Astonishing how things nauseatingly repulsive don't offend but seemingly innocuous things do. Says a lot.
If purchasing power and minimum wage had kept up to pace then unemployment would not be so low.

Though the numbers mean the same they have been artificially influenced by other factors and the ability to measure the economy through unemployment has been nerfed.

Not to mention attrition is higher than the past so the jobs that are being created could be largely recycled.
To be fair, that must have been a lot at the time right?
Adjusted for inflation its certainly a lot compared to furniture now.

In 1986 a Mustang GT was under $11k, now its about 3x that price.

1985 median home sale was $80k, 2023 median home sale was about $450k.

Leather is actually not a great material for a backpack or an outdoor (non-dressy) shoulder bag from a practical perspective in the 21st century. Nylon and related synthetics is a lot more practical. If you gave me a leather outdoor bag I'd probably thank you nicely and stick it in a closet or sell it.

I do like leather wallets though I almost exclusively use small front pocket ones these days because of sciatica and minimal needs for carrying either cash or a lot of cards.
The managed service is hassle free and it's auto sharded so you don't have traditional scaling issues. You do need to think about how your index choices spread writes and reads on the cluster to avoid hotspots. It's almost completely compatible with postgres wire protocol but it doesn't support things like extensions for the most part.
> I also believe that the lack of firearms in the hands of everyday citizens encourages violent criminals to see them as a viable and relatively effective means of coercion.

On the other hand, the fact that almost anyone can have gun encourages police brutality. Because they need to expect anyone could be armed so they act accordingly.

Also it is far easier to obtain gun illegally for violent criminals, when occurrence of guns in population is high.

Good. Do it. Let's see what they build.

I lived in Connecticut when the Mashantucket Pequot tribe successfully sued for the right to build casinos on their land, resulting in Foxwoods, the first of many casino developments on Native land from coast to coast. It was all over the news. Today, Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun are tourist attractions, and the casinos create jobs in Native communities and bring in buttloads of money.

Personally, I hate casinos. I'm not too fond of high rises either. But if Native American and First Nations people are doing things with their land that bring autonomy and benefits to their community, we'd be stupid to object -- and that's before bringing up the treaty violations.
The isotopes are examples of why atoms are not really atomic at all.

Once something that you thought was atomic actually shows variation you begin to suspect it is composed of smaller things.
You are directly using the CPU, you just do not have full access to the entire CPU. There is no userspace ALU that your numbers get crunched on, there is no userspace register file your working set is stored in (actually, they might do that internally, but logically there is no such distinction). You are in a hotel room. Just because you can not stomp around in the ducts does not mean you are not directly using the hotel room, you just have limited access to the rest of the hotel.
They had an “auto-encrypt” feature which, guess what, didn’t actually encrypt it or had a back door.

Why is that the relevant time?

If somehow native Americans got together and took back Oklahoma, would white Americans have any basis to complain? I would say no.
The major religions have had traditions around marriage since antiquity. Arguably it exists today in the form that it does because of religion. Outside of religion, marriage has no real meaning, and to the extent that it is promoted by government, it is a fragment of how everyone had a religion up until the 20th century.

This is probably the best case against gay marriage, because it could easily just be about civil union that is acknowledged by the government and granted the same benefits, without needing to call it marriage, which should be the matter for each religion to decide.
Going by total program cost, both of those are cheaper than Starship. SpaceX does this sleight of hand where they don't count their R&D cost in their calculations, but they do count it in other peoples' programs when comparing. SLS so far is about $2 billion in, and Starship seems to be at $2-3 billion. Vulcan is way cheaper than both.
Has the AVP hype already worn off and time to move on to the next big thing?
> I realize that the subject fungus, aspergillus oryzae, is not a mushroom. They are, however, related.

Brewer's yeast is also related, and it's chock-full of B vitamins (other than B12, which is pretty scarce in anything other than animal tissue). Also protein.
To be fair that was before YouTube and TikTok were a thing.
I ask because $300 -> $1000 is roughly 1982 to today.
Wait, this is not Open Source??
This is a wild thing to comment.

Nothing is stopping internet providers from selling internet below broadband standard and many do. Changing the exact meaning of broadband allows the government to raise the standard of service people receive and pressure ISPs to be better. Now ISPs have to be at 100/20 minimum otherwise they will not be able to receive grants or other government funding.

It isn't over regulation to mandate ISPs who take government money to meet some pretty basic speed requirements. 100/20mbit isn't even a high bar.
Without extremely aggressive changes to how we handle situations like this, it seems unlikely

A fine is a price, and there are basically no laws that put financial, let alone criminal liability for people behind the corporate veil or seizure/dissolution of a corporation that consistently breaks the law on the table
How? Who will represent that viewpoint in the halls of congress? The EFF is politically ineffective and always has been for reasons I don't understand, and no one else seems to care.
Talk about your cultural bubbles.

The historicity of "same sex unions" of Roman emperors (Nero, Elagabalus) is debated. These claims may have been recorded to discredit those emperors.

There was no legal recognition of same sex marriages or unions in ancient Rome.
Is this a relatively urban area, though? Generally, high speed coax networks these days consist of a relatively short, often shared stretch of coax, connecting back to a fibre-optic node. You’re looking at something like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_fiber-coaxial#/media/Fi...

If the premises served are low-density enough, you may be looking at only one or two per coax section, and at that point you’re probably cheaper just using fibre to the premises anyway.

A lot of meh furniture that uses steel will last, too.
The OP didn't use any qualifying words, I would be happy to take the other side of this argument if they did. You're also lecturing me about a stance that I normally take and agree with. Apply your own logic to me, steelman my position, and figure out what position I'm actually taking.
> percentage of my income for one furniture item

No matter how much money I make, I like to think there's price-tags I'd still balk at just because I don't want to be a sucker. Or get involved in status-signaling.. not sure which is worse.

So I started thinking about comparisons also. I like to go back to cups of coffee, and you could spend 6 bucks on coffee easily.. is a piece of furniture worth a thousand cups? Maybe. On the other hand, you could own like 3 cargo containers for this cash (think of the material involved), or a used car (think of the utility!).

So nah, this feels like way too much money, unless it's a mint condition antique that some king and queen used to sit on. A huge Belffin modular super sofa with 9 seats and 2 ottomans is less than $2k.
