> Got me wondering how they'll be delivering the gas, if they won't be using trucks or building other infra that uses fossil fuel-consuming equipment.

Sounds like you’ve answered your own question.

Time for you to get to work on an end-to-end natural gas powered supply chain that can run on the natural gas they’re pulling out of thin air.

Lots of fun problems for you to solve. A lifetime of fulfilling work ahead.
Thank you for providing your pattern.
I've been running my own email server for the last 10 years or so using iRedMail / CentOS on a cheap VM. It requires very little maintenance and I never have problems with delivery (just make sure you have DMARC, DKIM, SPF, all setup).

Occasionally I consider moving to service provider but I don't really trust any of them with something so important. Especially Google, as there are so many cases of people getting locked out of their account with virtually no support available to them.

If I were going to switch to a provider, it would likely be Proton. They are based out of Switzerland and as far as I know have an outstanding reputation.

How would parking requirements solve that? Would parents drive to the school and then leave the car with their preschoolers?
Russia has resorted to selling oil to North Korea because they no one else will buy it. That is isolation.

Russia is also working to remove Taliban from list of terrorist states.

These are Russia's "friends".

But isolation here also applies in political sense. There is no political support for Russia's invasion from the rest of the world. Even China has not approved the invasion.
This is bananas. You are chastising people you disagree with for not recognizing the nuance of the situation, and that they ought to recognize others don’t hold the same views as themselves. Fair point.

Then you forget you just said that and say the real reason is that everybody that doesn’t agree, for the most part, is racist. This is an insane and hateful point.

The sort of belief that if held sincerely can hurt people. Where do you get the confidence or the merge to claim something like this? You’re the one that seems to be comfortable ascribing beliefs to people you don’t even know.
So you believe that Muslims and/or Arabs are incapable of democracy?

Also, Israel is absolutely not a democracy. Gazans were/are ultimately subject to Israeli law and could not vote in Israel's elections.
This is true of the Commodore 64 as the VIC-II chip timing is closely coupled to the NTSC color burst (note below joke about "up-scanning to 60 Hz")

Also disk I/O and RS-232 are bit-banged.
Due to the way the video is interleaved with CPU cycles, you'd have to do something like divide the 1 MHz CPU clock by 20, and then when writing carefully only put data on the data bus for one of those 20 cycles. And the disk accesses would surely fail due to the CPU not keeping up, among other problems.

Capitalism doesn’t make cable suck. There are far more profitable companies with non-hellish customer experiences.

This is just a bad philosophy and short term thinking. Cable would be more profitable if they wanted to be. Blaming their shittiness on an economic system isn’t really accurate.
You are of course free to decide whether or not to do business with an organization based on how well you know/trust the ownership, and decline do do business that are evasive about their ownership at your own prerogative.

I'm not sure why ownership needs to be openly published in advance -- you can always query them confidentially through private correspondence -- or how having ownership compiled into a federal database that you don't have access to (unless you have corrupt influence over the relevant agency) will help you.
There are ships that move over one billion kWh of LNG around at a time.

At $100 to store a kWh of electrical energy, along with approximately ten times the cost to account for structures that can support and move the extra weight (that's AFTER allowing for less energy demanded in total)... shall I leave this as exercise to the reader?
Sure but the anti-growth thing is a classic naive zero-sum fallacy.

OP certainly thinks fondly of things built to last, and that’s admirable - but you should question the extent to which they actually value them. Let’s say OP is 30 and will buy one $3000 laptop per decade until age 70. If OP truly values things that last then they should be willing to pay at least $16000 today for a laptop with a 40 year lifespan. But that’s obviously silly! In reality OP values things that last to some extent but is willing to trade it off (newer, faster, lighter, cheaper) - they will undoubtedly choose to replace their laptop in the next 40 years.

The same with quality, I can almost always offer you a higher-quality product - but at a certain point you will not be willing to pay for it.
The hard problem with C is that it's hard to tell if what the programmer wrote is an error. Hence warnings... which can be very hit or miss, or absurd overkill in some cases.

(Signed overflow being a prime example where you really either just need to define what happens or accept that your compiler is basically never going to warn you about a possible signed overflow -- which is UB. The compromise here by Rust is to allow one to pick between some implementation defined behaviors. That seems pretty sensible.)
You do realise that for most of New York's history, when its construction was most productive, we had no real urban planning? If anything, the abundance and diversity of spaces in Brooklyn should make it easier to deregulate where childcare can be provided.

I use grpc at work for service to service interaction (there are many many services). The generated code, really gets rid of a lot of effort, and keeps clients and servers in sync. It makes streaming pretty easy too. There are also nice tools in the ecosystem to make custom code generators (maybe you want to generate your db interfaces too) or warn if you are introducing breaking changes to your api contract.
If you're going to point out that place X is not place Y, you are required to spell out the difference that makes it actually relevant in this context. Anything else is just noise.
Thanks. It was a cunning plan to bypass the flagging. I won't do it again, now you advised against it.
* not the one downvoting you... but I'm not sure if I'm buying the tradespeople killing it meme. It may help if you defined KILLING as some $/hr value. I'm seeing numbers like $45/hr which I would consider the bottom rung for SWE in the US.

> Under that model, wouldn't drivers only want to work for the busiest restaurants?

It doesn't take many orders to keep an individual driver busy. Typically the restaurants would manage how many, and which, drivers worked each night. If the night was unexpectedly quiet then a driver might finish early.

> With delivery apps, a restaurant can have just a few orders per night and still be open for delivery.

Yeah, the main benefit of delivery apps is enabling restaurants who primarily serve sit-in diners to deliver also. The overall benefit to delivery focused restaurants is much more tenuous.

> I would bet that there's an order of magnitude more deliveries happening (and drivers working) these days vs pre-Uber.

Perhaps, but if a driver was already busy all night under the previous model, then they're potentially harmed by the current model.

Thanks for sharing this.

Others have mentioned Signoz which I have tried but for my homelab it just feels like too much.

OpenObserve might be the solution that I have been looking for.
It's parenting. Of course then, what is "good" parenting and what is "bad"? Honestly, I don't know how much screen time is "good" vs "bad" or if there is a correct amount. There's only knowing where you came from (knowing who your Mom & Dad are) and that they love you so much.

That's simplified and idealized. But those elements can also be proxied if they're not there originally... approximately.
Why are you so quick to lump. Disagree with this individual, sure, but they gave you a lot of specific claims that you can argue against. Additionally, you’re implying that this person represents everyone that you disagree with, which is childish and crazy.
> tilt them toward western liberal outcomes

Fortunately, this is not what I'm hoping for! I'd much rather see another Rojava than another Western plutocracy.
This is fascinating. I often wonder about the different "clock speeds" of various functions in the brain and the mechanisms in play to keep these functions in sync.

Tangentially, I wonder if the brain's "FPS" (sample rate?) in hearing and processing audio differs between individuals in a similar way.
They claim the system has 90% accuracy, so they would have to actually kill about 10% more people than these numbers, to offset the 10% error rate. So between 610500 and 814000. The whole Gaza strip had about 2 million people before the current siege.
In the burbs where I grew up, there were huge school lots so cars waiting for pickup didn't overflow onto the road.
Ideally, the decoder should be dithering, I suppose. (I know of zero JPEG decoders that do this in practice.)
and to further you point, AUS and Brooklyn definitely have something in common:

Ultra HDR can have two jpegs inside, one for the usual image and another for the gain-map.

Hypothetically, both jpegs can be created with jpegli.

Hypothetically, both Ultra HDR jpegs can be decoded with jpegli.

In theory jpegli would remove the 8 bit striping that would otherwise be present in Ultra HDR.

I am not aware of jpegli-based Ultra HDR implementations.

A personal preference for me would be a single Jpegli JPEG and very fast great local tone mapping (HDR source, tone mapping to SDR). Some industry experts are excited about Ultra HDR, but I consider it is likely too complicated to get right in editing software and automated image processing pipelines.
Why are you DRIVING your children to school?

If cities were for people instead of cars, you could walk to the neighborhood childcare/school.

I am so happy that I was able to walk with my son to/from his elementary school (and kindergarten) every day! It was consistently the highlight of my day!
Not a US person here, but I'd be interested in knowing if there are any 'customer-friendly' alternatives available. For example, I'm in the UK and specifically chose Zen internet as my broadband provider for its more customer-centric terms over the many other broadband providers available to the UK market.
The economic system should have weeded them out. It has failed.
Sea-borne military forces are not obsolete. However, the types of the vessels themselves may be obsolete. Who would send a human-propelled trireme into action against the enemy today? And yet, at one time, the trireme was the very height of naval power projection.

In 1941 the world realised that the battleship was far outranged by aircraft, who were able to attack it long before the battleship was able to get close enough to the carrier to be able to use those 'powerful 16-inch guns'. At that moment, the battleship became obsolete. The biggest battleship ever, the 'Yamato', was no match whatsoever against carrier-borne aircraft.

The US still can't get into its head that the days of the carrier are gone now too. It will take an 'Arizona', 'Repulse' or 'Prince of Wales' kind of incident to change that policy. No need to spend 12 billion on a white elephant any more.

At the present time, lots of small ships with big missiles are the way to go. They pack as much punch as a super-carrier, but they are cheap and easily replaceable.

Why buy a 'Ford' when you could have a dozen or more equivalents for the same money?
At what point do we seriously consider the idea that Starship will lap SLS in capabilities and timing, and cancel SLS altogether? I feel like everyone's thinking this, but there's too much pork pressure and sunk cost fallacy to finally just ditch what's turning out to be a misguided approach, nearly 20 years in.

It's a platform built of new stock but very old SSMEs, still using hydrogen and all the problems that brings with it, on a non-reusable basis, with apparently varying quality even amongst identically specced but different vendored mission critical parts. The litany of issues they're outlining here are all varying stages of terrifying, and things that shouldn't be getting caught in this validation phase of a rocket that's actually already had a successful-ish launch demonstration.

Meanwhile, Starship keeps iterating like crazy, the way SpaceX does, and with significantly reduced relative complexity, on a vertically integrated platform that they have much more control over. I'm no Elon fanboy, but Starship is going to win this race, right?
Vertical integration in this space sounds like a really bad thing to me ("bad" in the sense of "likely to lead to the creation of products that erode human dignity in new and interesting ways").
Amazing how you managed to deny that you're racist and then proceed to write up several paragraphs of evidence of your racism. Bravo.
> 10+ bits. Jpegli can be encoded with 10+ bits per component. Traditional JPEG coding solutions offer only 8 bit per component dynamics causing visible banding artifacts in slow gradients. Jpegli's 10+ bits coding happens in the original 8-bit formalism and the resulting images are fully interoperable with 8-bit viewers. 10+ bit dynamics are available as an API extension and application code changes are needed to benefit from it.

So, instead of supporting JPEG XL, this is the nonsense they come up with? Lock-in over a JPEG overlay?
It easily can make the world safer space
What if your own happiness is contingent on the well-being of the planet and the other life here, which we are rapidly extinguishing? For people who are not soulless, wealth-chasing imbeciles there is no possibility of finding happiness. Soon though these same forces of human nature that are destroying our environment will come back to kill all of us, and that is the only silver lining!
That seems better to me than paving a big parking lot just for the short time kids are dropped off.

That's the buyer seeking growth, even if only to shut the bought down, yielding relative growth. Big fish eat little fish. That's the universe talking, as opposed to whatever ideology you prefer to blame.

The "solution" -- should you perceive a problem with all this -- is destabilizing the large such that the small find more opportunities. Hating on growth isn't compatible with this, however: you must be capable of tolerating the small enjoying growth.
That's a dumb argument. It's not like Qatari money is trying to buy the mathematical inverse of Israeli money in a game of tit-for-tat.

there should be a moral impetus to always have a human in the loop regardless

I don’t understand how to come to this. War is crap, not a dinner party. There’s always a human on both sides who will drop a bomb and laugh on camera, with no responsibility. Go watch it (actually don’t, it’s NSFL). Reading this thread feels like everyone watched and believed in that movie where they tried to select and eliminate a target for 2 hours with futuristic hi-tech. A human hesitates to press the button before the war. When in it, he will only be concerned with things like ammunition saving and tactical nuances. There’s not much more morals in a human who usually sits there at the button than in AI automation.
This wasn't a problem when students rode school busses instead of being individually chauffeured.

Alternatively, Paris solved this problem by closing the nearby streets to cars, so the students can safely walk to school.

> Basically: Climate doomerism is a problem, yes. But climate change is also a problem, one that our power structures seem completely unwilling to address. And in such an environment, Climate doomerism is kind of a logical outcome: we know there's an issue, scientists have known since the 70's, yet we do precious little about it and fundamentally our leaders seem content to ride out the collapse of the biosphere and cash their checks. Of course that's fucking depressing.

You seem to be exhibiting the exact symptom you are complaining about.

I fully accept that climate change exists and is human caused, and will cause serious problems in the future.

Where I differ from you (probably) is that I think cutting emissions to a useful degree will also cause serious problems. Maybe even worse problems. Both problems have the real potential to cause total war across the globe, not seen since WWII. Many people think we're already in the early stages of WWIII, and a big part of that is basically due to an utterly trivial minor disruption in the politics/trade of fossil fuels when compared to what is required by mitigating climate change via emissions reductions.

My view is obviously no less doomer-ish I suppose, but, in your view, the problem is "people suck", "politicians suck", etc., and I think that makes people cynical and resentful of other people, politically unstable in general.
That is very cool and I say that as someone whose first project in my first job (1982) was to write the code for a serial multiplexer with a Z80, a 2716 EPROM, Zilog SIOs (or maybe DUARTs actually).... and 2K of static RAM. I basically learned my craft on the job and there's no way I could have done it without the RAM. A few years later I would have relished the challenge. Although you are really limiting the complexity of the protocol you can deal with ... (perhaps not such a terrible thing:).

Someone dying in a car accident is frequent/common as in happening several times a day, but it’s still an extreme edge case in terms of the average trip.

Technology like this raises a moral conundrum.

Minimizing deaths is the humane approach to war. So we move away from broad killing mechanisms (shelling, crude explosives, carpet bombing), in favor of precise killing machines. Drones, targeted missiles and now AI allow you to be ruthlessly efficient in killing an enemy.

The question is - How cold and not-human-like can these methods be, if they are in fact reducing overall deaths ?

I won't pretend an answre is obvious.

The west hasn't seen a real war in a long time. Their impression of war is either ww1 style mass deaths on both sides or overnight annihilation like America's attempts in the middle east. So our vocabulary limits us to words like Genocide, Overthrow, Insurgency, etc. This is war. It might not map onto our intuitions from recent memory, but this is exactly what it looks like.

When you're in a long drawn out war with a technological upper hand...you leverage all technology to help you win. At the same time, once pandoras box is open, it tends to stay open for your adversaries as well. We did well to maintain global consensus on chemical and nuclear warfare. I don't see any such concensus coming out of the AI era just yet.

All I'll say is that I won't be quick to make judgements on the morality of such tech in war. What do you think happened to the spies that were caught due to decoding of the enigma ?

There's a difference between parking mandates versus parking built at the developer's discretion. Parking mandates (what the article talks about) are onerous because they force the developer to build more parking they potentially would have otherwise (based on a rational assessment of the opportunity cost of the space parking uses vs. the benefit to their business).

I think few people would argue against allowing developers to build as much parking as they want - but I think many would be surprised to find that developers in urban areas don't generally want to build as much parking as is mandated by the zoning requirements, since they assess that many people don't arrive in cars, so the benefit parking provides is less than the cost of it.
but their owners don't share the same liability as the company. The entire reason the concept of companies exist is to create a separate entity that isn't a person.
