Do they actually market their wines that way? I thought it would make an interesting comparison, but when I looked on their web site I didn't see any indication of which wine came from which type of soil.

(I'm a wine aficionado who happens to believe that most wine marketing is BS. I'm particularly skeptical of terroir, so a chance to do a proper controlled experiment would be really interesting.)
No. Haskell made me decide that operators should not be definable by users. It is truly a miserable affair to read terse point free code riddled with operators from a half dozen libraries ( or one overly clever library ).

Cleverness is a register that is easy to overflow, and too many don't have to good taste to avoid doing so.

Give me names every time.
It's worth noting a very, very large difference: the US cannot compel companies to build things. They can secretly obtain some information, but they can't secretly require backdoors, tracking tools, etc.

You’re looking at the distance between turbines as if that land was useless for anything else. It’s not.

Put a turbine in the on a 10,000 acre farm and you’ll still have a 9,999 acre farm. Put a nuclear reactor on that same land and you’ll be doing a lot less farming.

It recently passed that point for me, and I've moved my Win10 computers to Linux (Ubuntu for now).
You'll need to pick holes in:

A 2015 report, “Land Requirements for Carbon-Free Technologies,” compared the land area that various types of electricity generation facilities would require to produce the same amount of electricity as a 1,000-megawatt nuclear power plant in a year. The results highlight the exemplary performance reliability of nuclear energy facilities as well as the very high energy density of nuclear fuel.

A nuclear energy facility has a small area footprint, requiring about 1.3 square miles per 1,000 megawatts of installed capacity. This figure is based on the median land area of the 59 nuclear plant sites in the United States. In addition, nuclear energy facilities have an average capacity factor of 90 percent, much higher than intermittent sources like wind and solar.

https://www.nei.org/news/2015/land-needs-for-wind-solar-dwar...

which also asserts that:

Wind farms require up to 360 times as much land area to produce the same amount of electricity as a nuclear energy facility, a Nuclear Energy Institute analysis has found. Solar photovoltaic (PV) facilities require up to 75 times the land area.

and other claims.

You can use the dyson structure for other things.. there is a (sci-fi'esque) suggestion called a Matrioska Brain I think, where the entire dyson structure is made of computational substrates - it could be conveniently powered by the solar radiation but also by fusion. Given the track of AI and realistic world sims, everything might end up "living" inside one of those structures..

You would have to protect it pretty decently though..

I wrote a bit about it here: https://www.scd31.com/posts/real-time-balloon-video

The actual bandwidth is 500kbps, or about 350kbps usable after FEC. I'm encoding video at 640x480, 12FPS. It's almost entirely custom software. I'm using a Gstreamer pipeline to take in the video stream, encode it, and encapsulate it. From there, I packetize it, run it through an LDPC encoder (for error correction), data whitening, and finally send it to an FSK modem to convert it into radio waves. On the ground station I basically do the same thing in reverse.

At 1W transmission, I've gotten video over 140km from a balloon to the ground. Most of that distance is horizontal - the winds tend to blow the balloon quite far. The math says the system should be good to at least 250km.
Do you think I'll notice that much ?

> Wind farms require up to 360 times as much land area to produce the same amount of electricity

Sure, look at this picture of corn growing between windmills. https://www.gasworld.com/story/wind-turbines-and-corn-fields...

Gee I wonder how much land they are actually occupying. Or wowzers let’s talk about offshore wind farms…

They’re using a definition that makes sense in one context and then applying it in a different context where it’s meaningless. Grid operators dislike base load power, the term is actually referring to a downside that it’s pricey to turn off. Now outside of that context it sure sounds great to pair with unreliable renewable energy. Except the downside still exists and you lose lots of money when you turn it off making it a terrible option when paired with renewable energy.
Considering that Unicode did not invent combining diacritics, it follows that simple compatibility with existing encodings demanded it. Now that Unicode's goals have expanded beyond simply representing what already exists, precomposed characters would be too limiting.
>Yes, she’s remembering all these things, but I’m wondering about all the things she isn’t either remembering or in control of remembering that would have otherwise been within here sphere to have remembered.

Yes, now it kind of makes sense. But why assume her ability is counterbalanced by having trouble remembering other stuff? Nothing of the short is hinted at in the article, and if she had any such issue, I'd expect her or her parents to have noticed. And even if that was the case, why would that make it any less interesting to study?

"Passively absorving banal shit" and remembering it would be any less important to study than some conscious ability to chose what important thing to remember. The latter might be more apparently useful to the person and in general, but a super memory mechanism is interesting enough to study on its own, even it just concerns past lotto numbers.

It's also not the case that "all the examples given are out of the tabloid headlines" - the article gives all kinds of other examples (from a "memory game" as a kid, to answering questions about what she wore, ate, etc at random dates on past years).

In any case, this Nash person has a beautiful mind!

In Minecraft Java 1.19.1, a new chat mode was introduced that allowed chat messages in private servers to be reported. Supposedly, the messages were cryptographically signed by the sender and only signed messages could be reported.

My guess is someone figured out a clever way to bypass the signature and automated reporting the messages in a way that triggers an automated ban.
The economy has not been growing the whole time. It effectively collapsed during the pandemic, went offline, and restarted at lower capacity afterward. GDP also counts government spending, which is misleading as the government is not producing anything it purchases. As for the 1 trillion drop, if you look at the preceding 5 trillion dollar increase you'll see that 1 trillion is very conservative.

In what area of science would it take only a week or two to replicate?

It might take several days to a week of literature review just to fully understand the problem. Then you might need equipment, chemicals, cultures, etc. Then depending on the area of science, doing the actual experiment could take several weeks (waiting for reactions, computer simulations, etc). Then possibly tricky analysis and statistics on top of that.

Nowadays, science is deep

Choosing 2FA segregates users into two buckets. Most people are satisfied with the risk of allowing password reset emails and social engineering attacks. They don't pick 2FA.

The rest are generally more sophisticated users, and are willing to risk loss of the entire account if they lose their credentials. That's the price for an overall increase in account security. From this perspective, it makes sense to provide backup codes as another tool in the DIY account-management toolbox.

These buckets oversimplify the situation, but they help explain why backup codes are offered as last-ditch authentication for 2FA.

> In one news release regarding the cashless policy at Death Valley, the park service said that the $22,000 in cash collected by the park during the previous year took more than $40,000 to process.

> “Cash handling costs include an armored car contract to transport cash and park rangers’ time counting money and processing paperwork,” the Park Service wrote in the news release. “The transition to cashless payments will allow the NPS to redirect the $40,000 previously spent processing cash to directly benefit park visitors.”

Strange but true:

While small businesses prefer cash, large businesses don't because there are many hidden costs to handling *large* amounts of cash regularly. Grocery stores know this, which is why they offer "cash back," so they can minimize the amount of cash they have to handle. Counting cash and contracting and armored vehicle are not free.

In the park situation, I wonder if it would be legal to charge differential pricing: instead of $10, they would charge $19 to cover cash handling costs (which means they would get $40,000 in revenues and break even). On the other hand, this might trigger another lawsuit because folks don't realize cash handling fees can be more expensive than credit card fees.
Sure!

I use SingleFile to save a copy of every article / post / SO & forum discussion I find interesting or useful. I sort them into two buckets: work, and not-work.

I’ve been doing this for 10+ years (before SingleFile I used things like .pdf, plain .html, .webarchive files - although these all have drawbacks).

In the pre-LLM era, I would then interface with these almost exclusively through a search front-end. I use Houdahspot on Mac and easySearch on iOS. That lets me see everything interesting I’ve read on a particular subject just by typing it in (with the usual caveats that apply to basic keyword search - although in practice that alone has proven very effective). Because it’s just a folder of essentially zipped .html files, there’s no lock-in.

Now that we’ve got LLMs, I plug those 10+ years of files straight into my RAG pipeline using llama-index. It’s quite nice :)
Leak, Cheat, Repeat: Data Contamination and Evaluation in Closed-Source LLMs
This is an EXTREMELY weird line to take this discussion in, considering we're talking about the same company who's response to a number of people asking them to drop KiwiFarms as a customer was 3 several-paragraph-long blog posts, endless hand-wringing and promises to donate all revenue from KF to charity.

Meanwhile a cartoon illustration of two girls kissing is posted on a Fediverse instance with less than a hundred users, dedicated as a safe space for trans women, and it's immediately Threatening E-Mail O'clock.

Their "out" is that they got complaints, which is honestly even more hilarious, because are we going to pretend they got more complaints about a teeny-tiny Sharkey instance than Kiwi fucking Farms?

Isn’t that the case for most/all emergent behavior? If you change the scale and watch individual water molecules, you’d see them snapping into a crystal structure one by one instead of a sudden emergent block of ice.
A big part of the problem is that everybody just makes up their own definition of “burnt out.”

Another part of the problem is that people who were good in school or good at passing interviews get frustrated when the real world is nothing like school or job interviews. They just don’t know how to handle uncertainty and a lack of the next external validation of achievement.

Another part of the problem is people thinking that they deserve to be happy at work. They can be happy at work, but it’s on you to make it happen. Your employer’s got goals and making you happy isn’t very high on the list if it’s there at all.

At least with aegis I can create groups. So I can separate email, work stuff, etc and only see a few tokens in each group.

Sure the ui isn't great. And it takes a couple extra clicks to the groups. But given the stupid shit that sites do like disabling paste for two factor codes or passwords, i just would never trust them to not fuck up a more streamlined solution. I like a bit more manual control sometimes, at the expense of convenience.

And it also runs and is backed up completely offline, which is nice.
Well, choice has its charms, but a non fragmented experience, with the wider combined adoption, and all the now scattered resources devoted to it, has more actual benefits.

If you do that in your own app, you might as well just show a QR code which the user scans and opens up the app for approval. Code as backup. Having to type in an alphanumeric code (talking about Steam Guard, not standard TOTP) when the app is already involved is quite outdated.

I believe Steam Guard already added the scan QR code flow a while ago?

> if I convince you that the beans I have for sale are magic and you voluntarily pay me for them only to find out that they aren't magic, it'd be fair to say you've been robbed

Colloquially yes, but not really robbed. Possibly a victim of false advertising. But to establish that you'd have to prove they aren't magic, first. The problem would be that if you think beans can be magic, or stock picks can be guaranteed, then things will go wrong. No one can protect you from yourself as well as you can.
