This is a good example why I hate both 99% of IoT available on sale AND HA as well... Anything simple demand a wall of text, convoluted reasoning, absent or badly documented stuff and so on.

This is a similar example JUST to get a water leak notification from a user-friendly device (by user friendly means no crappy proprietary protocols and services imposed, local as a first class usage etc) https://kfx.fr/posts/shellyfloodandha/ and just to use such automation to automatically close a motorized valve witch actually just provide 4 power wires (ground, phase on "close", phase on "open" and "neutral) is another wall of YAML.

Essentially 99% of commercial IoT seems to be designed just to impress illiterate people with colors and so on, not much differently than older merchants on "savage peoples" selling colored glass like gold, and without any ideas about a real practical usage and integration of useful features.

Personally about most kitchen appliance I cry for maximizing p.v. self-consumption, since it's the sole technically sound way to use p.v., for instance ovens, dishwasher, washing machines, dryers can be "left ready to run" for a significant amount of time, all we need to maximize self-consumption is coordinate their power usage: ovens start to consume for a certain amount of time, than just keep hot with short time heating, washing machines tend to heat one or two time maximum for a certain (variable) amount of time, dishwasher tend to heat more times, but all can delay a bit their power loads, if they offer a cheap ModBUS or a less cheap but not so expensive MQTT card AS AN OPTION to be plugged behind the machine or even a kind of "smart plug" that actually just a local powerline device communicating to the internal electronics, coordinate their run from HA would be simple. No one seems to have though about such usage. Water heaters? Similarly, even most modern heat pump water heaters take into account just delaying consumption looking at grid energy price, no real integration with p.v., cars? Even worse: 99% of BEV support DC direct charging, actually most p.v. inverters supporting a battery support 400V batteries, the very same voltage of most cars nowadays, so why the hell not offer a simple home charge socket DC-to-DC to avoid double conversion DC-AC-DC with significant loss in the process? AFAIK only one vendor do so, but NOT integrated with any P.V. they just use "fast charging" as a bidirection bridge to offer V2H for cars do not support such usage (like MOST cars on sale).
I don't either. But I understand that different brains have different experiences with it, and many many ppl are "having a bad time". Just like how one persons reaction to being surrounded by unhealthy food choices is different than my own.

> Or it's a debit on the company's account.

That's exactly right. They owe you money, so it is (or at least it should be) a credit on your account, and a debit on theirs. But that is not what the definition given in the article says. TFA's definition of "credit" was "An entry that represents money leaving an account" and likewise a debit is "An entry that represents money entering an account." So when you paid your bill, that was (by the articles definition) a credit to your checking account and a debit to your account with company whose bill you were paying, which is exactly backwards. According to the standard English definitions, a credit is something that makes your net worth go up, and a debit is something that makes your net worth go down. So when you pay your bill, that should be a debit to you (cash going out decreases your net worth) and a credit to the counterparty (cash coming in increases their net worth).

Companies use to be the same complete with executions and slavery. We now have a clumsy but workable set of rules for that. The only thing that gets in the way of making the same for government is apathy and nihilism. We don't believe we each have an important role to play. If we ever do it will be much like nationalism.
The cost of owning homes and apartments is also going up.

I'm 18. I suspect this is related to attention span: Videos capture your attention far better and are more addictive. Additionally, while people can read, they're worryingly slow and they are so out of practice that the very act of extended reading tires them out - even if the subject itself is trivial. I think my reading speed is slightly above average among adults, and I can read text at my normal speed three times in the time it takes my peers to read it once. That's with brain damage.

These are very intelligent people, it's just that my generation is moving away from reading.

I've had discussions with friends who think academic papers should be replaced with videos. They find writing so time consuming and difficult that they think that an informative, animated video could be made with the same amount of effort as an academic paper. They also say that they're frequently distracted from the content due to the effort of reading itself.

I've been surprised by the extent to which people use "person talks to camera" style videos for revision and re-learning, rather than reading condensed notes. They are significantly slower, you can't scan through until you find something you're unfamiliar with, and they're just plain dull. Despite that, they're one of the most popular ways to revise. Perhaps it's because you can zone out of videos, convincing yourself that you're learning without actively engaging with the content. Again, I don't mean 3b1b style animated lectures, I mean someone essentially paraphrasing the textbook to the camera.

An similar phenomenon that also worries me is the lack of distinction between how people speak and how people write, and not in the "use straightforward language, not purple prose" way. People comma-splice entire paragraphs (if they use paragraphs at all) in a stream of consciousness rather than organising their thoughts.

>Use the intuitive meaning of the words: a credit means you have money coming in, a debit means you have money going out. An increase in assets, income, or equity is a credit, and an increase in expenses or liabilities is a debit, and vice versa.

An increase in assets is a debit.

>Or, alternatively, just use "credit" for any increase, and "debit" for any decrease.

How is this consistent with the fact that an increase in my bank account balance is a debit?

Here is what I did: I started with drawabox.com, which is basically a very rigid but free of cost boot camp style of starting from just drawing a line on a piece of paper. Simultaneously I read Lynda Barries' book on comic making and her book "Syllabus", and adopted her way of doing quick visual journaling every day. I read the Loomis book "Fun with a pencil" which is a book aimed at kids for drawing cartoony little things progressing to more realistic anatomy. This lead me to Loomis' books "Figure drawing for all its worth" and "Successful drawing". (the latter being a book on incorporating perspective in drawing). From there I have used various resources. A breakthrough for me was Rebecca Tillman Youngs online course on portrait drawing (which is basically teaching the Loomis method of drawing the head in a slow and methodical way) in that it allowed me to draw faces that I genuinely was excited about. From there resources that have been useful to me are Marco Bucci's online class "Drawing for advanced beginners", the books "Figure drawing: design and invention", "Anatomy for artists, drawing form and pose", "the Vilppu manual", ""Anatomy for sculptors", and "Rey's anatomy" (not Grey's anatomy). The best book on perspective I have found is Atteberry's "The complete guide to perspective". I have read a ton of other books, but these are the keepers.

In five months I have gone through three 100 page sketchbooks and I have had fun and reached flow state pretty consistently the whole time through. The first of the sketchbooks was basically just drawabox exercises up until the 250 boxes challenge. At this point I transitioned away from drawabox as I was having enough fundamentals to have fun and make progress on drawings I cared about.

All these resources and books may seem overwhelming and you definitely don't need to go through all of this material. The key for learning drawing is to figure out what is exciting for you to draw and get over that first hump to get to where you can draw something you see have potential even if it is not great. That's when the momentum builds and it becomes self propelling. Drawing is basically a language for communicating 3d form on a 2d surface, and like learning Spanish the key is just to get enough of a vocabulary that you can get started conversing. The rest follows once you can talk a little.

I agree that it is a habit of high margin profit chasing. It also says a lot that almost every time the imports become "domesticated" they seem to move into the same problematic high margin areas. Honda US and Nissan US are huge truck companies today. Kia US is mostly a luxury SUV company.

However, I disagree that it is a sustainability problem because I think it is a "fashion trend" problem and companies aren't good at predicting trends (especially not ones on the scale of decades in current US corporate culture), and are just sticking to bad habits (that unfortunately are profit rewarded enough that they don't feel enough relentless "quarterly" pressure to challenge those bad habits).

I think we're approaching a situation where UBI will become essential not because "it's a public good" (although, IMO it ought to be), but because it will actually be healthy for businesses at scale.

Factor 1: Very rich people and very poor people don't spend money.

In less simple terms, very rich people don't spend significant portions of their money, and very poor people don't have any money to spend. Flow of capital is necessary for the economy to keep functioning and a UBI is the best way to avoid systemic collapses.

Factor 2: AI needs to eat

IP is a bloody mess. The way we manage intellectual ownership is totally broken, and it's going to have a really deleterious effect on creativity moving forward. This generalizes through the arts, tech, journalism, etc. AI is only going to make this worse - UNLESS we implement UBI. Then, people who believe in good journalism can all become journalists, people who have creative talent can all become artists, and people who like to code can all do that. If you no longer have to worry about housing and feeding yourself, you can spend whatever time is necessary creating new stuff. Without the need to have this be financially generative, it'll be a whole lot easier to convince people to allow their work to be used in training, and rather than having hungry money vacuums that undermine creative work, AI can be essentially a search engine for prior work (allowing all the creatives to focus on novel creations, rather than constantly reinventing the wheel).

I realize how pollyanna this seems, but I believe it's possible (even if it's incredibly difficult to get there from here).

> You really don't need to use terminology like debit/credit for accounting.

That's exactly right -- you don't need to. The problem is that people do use this terminology, and they use it in a way that conflicts with common usage, which makes a very simple concept vastly more confusing than it needs to be.
Many British houses are already damp and small, and heating them to dry clothes doesn’t save energy. Putting clothes outside when it’s -2 degrees or raining consistently also doesn’t help.

Really depends on a million factors.

Where I grew up if you left the clothes out (but covered with inclement weather), depending on season, they would either dry perfectly or get a funky (awful) smell to them. I wish we had a drier back then, it would have made my teenage years less embarrassing.
I feel like Boston has had similar, we have contracts with companies to complete a thing by a specific time, they don't but we are stuck paying them even more to complete a project so it ends up being over budget, late, and possibly not done well as is evident by our green line extension that opened last year that was shut down to redo it because the tracks are the wrong width.

It just feels like the money is going to the wrong places like you said.

I would probably argue that we still need more funding even if we fixed how we used the money, but we need to fix how we use it first.
Did you attend high school in the US? It's basically the online version of high school. They've brought all the popularity contest, show-boating "look at the nice things I do, have, etc", and gossip from high school onto social media. Many people don't grow out of that mindset.
> Of course it would be, asset is anything of value, you're confusing with subtypes of assets. Just mujhe liability is anything you owe regardless of for how long

If an office buys snacks on Monday for the office party on Friday, they're not counting it as an asset and depreciating it on their books.

If food production or delivery were part of the core business, it would be one thing, but in the context that OP's talking about, it would be overkill at best (and fraudulent, in extreme cases) to try and count a transient consumable as an asset on their books.

> or who don't even believe that it ever occurred, but the vast majority of reasonable people would consider those folks irrational

You're confusing rationally concluding something with feeling morally righteous for believing it. It's not irrational to disbelieve something that people only believe because they'll feel like a bad person or be punished for doubting. See religion, for example.

The only reason most people believe the holocaust happened is because they heard about it from general society. Same way they believe God created the world. Almost no layman has actually studied it. It's just a kind of common faith where being a believer is what's important rather than the content of the belief.

I'm not saying it didn't happen, just that the vast majority of believers aren't believing out of rationality but out of indoctrination.

Same is true of all sorts of beliefs in things that don't directly affect us. We believe them because everyone assures us they're true, not because we sat down and worked out the conclusion for ourselves.
As we have recently discovered, the current system is clearly open to exploits. Closed source isn’t any better. We need a way to audit the source to find the potential exploits before they are deployed.

All hands on deck.
