> Also, I don't want a nuclear power plant in my backyard.

Why would you not want a nuclear power plant near you? I would love to live by one.
> "Most people don’t want to live in Manhattan or similarly dense settings. I’m not sure why the state or voters felt it would be okay to take away local choice or why they thought it would be easy."

If that were true, apartment prices in Manhattan and similarly dense places would be a lot cheaper. The fact that people are willing to pay a premium to live somewhere is a direct expression of the fact that they prefer to live there.

The main reason local jurisdictions resist construction is because landowners (not to be confused with developers) benefit from doing so. The artificial shortage of housing drives up the price of their property.

I came to this post thinking I was going to find a bad question, but it's actually the opposite. Very good question as our other friend pointed out in the comments. I think you are already on the right track just by asking it.

I don't know about any books on this subject, and it was something I could have benefited from before for sure, instead of having to learn myself how to "succeed" in an environment like the one OP described.

There's a lot to be written about the subject, in multiple levels, but at the highest level, and in the most summarized way, what you have to do to succeed is simply to bring solutions to people and not problems.

The catch, in my experience and opinion, is that the large majority of people, by far, confuse the two things.

Coming up with an idea for a project that will solve a problem is not a solution. It is actually a problem from your supervisor/company perspective.

"Why is it a problem?", you ask.

The reason is simple, now this project is another item for your supervisor to add to their backlog because they will have to do all the work: write about it, explain and sell it to stakeholders and supporters, assemble a team, plan the project, manage execution, and all the other stuff.

"How do you transform this into a solution?"

You take on all those things. You should do all the work required to put a real plan together. Once that's done, then you bring it to your supervisor and you'll find that it is much easier to get support like that. The challenge is coming up with a plan that includes everything your supervisor/company cares about.

I can assure you that if you get this right, you'll find yourself contributing to the bigger picture much more often. Everyone says they want to contribute, but when it comes time to do the actual work, very little people want to do it, because it's really hard.
Where are the cheap batteries? List prices are gradually coming down but availability remains limited for any large projects. And if you actually want to store a useful amount of energy, that takes a lot more than just a big box full of battery cells.
Or did the wars actually lead to progress? A challenging question. Strife breeds strength, but stability breeds prosperity.

Cool, I never use keys generated by putty, so I'm good. I only use keys generated by and stored on hardware tokens like yubikeys and openpgp smartcards.

Edit: To clarify further, the key in that case is not even handled by putty. All crypto ops are done on the token and the private key never leaves it. It can't be exported even because that defeats the purpose of using a hardware token. So putty will just tell the token or smartcard what to sign and the token returns the output.

That's why it's safe against this attack. Putty never handles the private key material in this scenario. So I never imported the private key in putty or pageant and I couldn't even if I wanted to. The agent just declares the public keys on the token.

I see all the downvotes but I didn't explain it properly. I've been using smart cards so long that these things are kinda a given for me.

I can really recommend doing it this way or doing the more modern fido2 auth. Hardware authentication is amazing and it even works on Android over nfc these days.

The biggest vulnerability I see is the issue of malware connecting to the unlocked token via the SSH agent, but I'm only using tokens that have touch to sign for this reason. They require a touch on the token for every operation.
I think you are right and it is part of the explanation. What this explains is why the public are OK with that and these people do not get more widespread support for higher pay.

I really do not understand why people think it is fair that teachers in the UK get paid about half of what train drivers do. The fact that they do is because train drivers strikes have more immediate impact than those of teachers, but the fact that the public do to realise the problems this causes (e.g. a shortage of teachers, overworked teachers meaning they do their jobs less well, etc) might be explained by the perception that they are adequately rewarded by knowing their work matters.

Bingo. Basically ARM SystemReady SR or gtfo.

In practice that means Ampere Altra CPU. There was a uatx board released recently that seems viable, if bit pricy.

I was once told that the difference between a behavior being an addiction or the same behavior not being an addiction is that the non-addicted do the thing for some positive physical or psychological effect. The addicted do the thing in order to avoid a negative physical or psychological effect.

In this view, for example, people start using an addictive drug because it makes them feel good, but once addicted they use the drug in order to avoid withdrawal symptoms.

Going to rehab means to stop using, which brings withdrawal. I think this view explains why some addicted would only do it when they'll incur an even greater negative effect than withdrawal.
SIM swap attacks are the reason I do not use SMS 2FA. Everything has been switched to use software or hardware based MFA. Opting for "magic link" sign in where necessary. E-mail protected by one or more non-SMS MFA.

The only services that I use with SMS 2FA are honeypot accounts.

California does have nuclear power literally in its back yard, Palo Verde in Arizona which is partial owned by a number of California entities.
How does this stack up with the other relatively recent news that Cali was asking people to unplug their EVs because the grid couldn't handle it? Was that just due to the fluctuating nature of renewables (cloudy, windless days)?
Imports are only 20% of total generation. Of that, 58% are renewables/nuclear/hydro, 19% are fossil fuel, and 22% are unspecified according to this:

According to the firm that redesigned the website in 2017, Lee Stimmel had written over 600 articles.

https://www.baydesignassociates.com/article/website-redesign...

Mostly relatively dry discussions, but they do seem a lot better structured than the average blog post, and (thankfully) not AI garbage. He is a good writer.

The story OP posted is tagged with "War Stories", and these do seem to be far more literary, with first-person perspective and novel-like dialogue.

I suspect the same writer really has written all of these. It may be the actual person credited, Lee Stimmel, but it impossible to know if it's a ghostwriter without other samples of Stimmel's writing. But I don't think the technical details of the law would be well captured by a ghostwriter. There is a distinct change of style between both kinds of articles, but to me it feels like the same person writing.

It's impressive that all of the universe's languages have a canonical alphabetization that Wowbagger could follow. (It would already be impressive to have a canonical alphabetization for all of Earth's languages, and those are all spoken using human vocal anatomy!)

Although I guess Wowbagger could have had an unlimited amount of time to do descriptive linguistics work as a lead-up to actually beginning his insult project.
What does the "imports" chart mean? Is energy imported from outside the grid renewable?

I would extend that to cost of living in general. If you want services from local people, you need to pay them enough to live locally, which includes housing, food, healthcare, taxes, and their childcare, too.
Right. The SMS 2FA risk is overstated IMO - at worst it makes it as insecure as password-only, and at best it creates a roadblock for attackers that can be significant for locked SIMs.

But SMS account recovery is definitely opening the door to attack.
Yes. My implementation is a bidirectional pathtracer, but that tends to just confuse people.

Cultural changes are unpredictable. Europe was a hotbed of fascism not that long ago and looks nothing like that today? I wouldn’t discount the effect the baby boomer death waves in the next 20 years will have on cultural shifts either. Crappy executives and politicians can’t live forever and the zeitgeist is already changing among the people.
“Stop contributing to the public data” is a perfectly reasonable way of avoiding it.
First year with 2 kids in daycare, 6 months after COVID hit, we paid $38,000 for a years worth of care before the Government intervened and made some concessions. Now it's considerably more affordable here in Australia, I think now we would be paying about $15,000-$16,000 AUD
The lingua franca in many sciences might still be German instead of English.

But for the most part the technology level of Germany is coupled to that of the rest of the world. It's hard to tell how that would have evolved. Maybe keeping the existing research clusters in Western Europe intact would have lead to faster advances in chemistry and particle physics.

On the other hand we probably wouldn't have a space station today if it weren't for the Nazis bankrolling a rocketry program, the two world wars leading to the creation and rise of the Soviet Union as well as the ascension of the United States to superpower status, and those two bankrolling competing space programs in the aftermath of WWII as a way to show the superiority of their respective ideological systems.

No WWII would have also meant no Manhattan Project. Even a more limited WWII where only the Pacific Theater happened wouldn't have lead to Manhattan Project since the fear of a German nuclear weapon was a major driver. Without nuclear weapons, ballistic missiles make little sense. Which both means that rocketry is even less likely to get off the ground, and that bombers would play a much bigger role (US firebombing on Japan had similar devastation as early nukes, at the expense of needing a lot more bombs for each attack). This would probably mean more advanced aviation than in our timeline.

Without WWII decolonization might not have happened. Not a major impact on Germany as they only had few colonies even before the wars, but the impact on their neighbors would be profound.

Without the world wars leading to the US rising to power and the cold war and nuclear threat the arpanet wouldn't have happened. Would Germany have created something similar, and would it be as decentralized without the defense department backing and threat of nukes taking out key network interchanges? Maybe French Minitel would still have happened and the internet would have been French?
For sure. It's like seeing the fog clear. I'm very optimistic about this development. Chronic health issues are numerous and immensely costly to individuals and society, and the establishment has obviously no clue how to fix it as was obvious in recent events.

Holy cow, take a deep breath. You’re violating multiple rules of this place with the baseless and unnecessary attacks. I have seen multiple reports of a measurable gain in efficiency. Am I willing to spend 2 hours digging up data? No, because again it was literally not the point of the comment and completely missing the point.
I am thankful the Government made some changes to make it more affordable. $38k was more than our mortgage and put a lot of strain on our finances.
One of the big selling ports of ARM is lower power consumption so I'd have loved to see some numbers, particularly idle watts.

From this perspective, techniques such as Reiki are not that surprising, they may be methods of more effectively exploiting this mind-body connection: all of these techniques usually have in common some sort of visualization, and learning to associate certain colors/signs/symbols with desired effects. (Although the fact that it seems to have effects even when the practitioner differs from the recipient means there's probably more to it than just that.)
I'm kinda on the fence with this one.

I mean, the site is apparently a real law firm in San Francisco, so even if it's fictional (the names definitely should be!), the stories are probably based on real events.

Nah.

Any interested party can simply drive past and count the number of cars in the parking lots. Not a lot of mystery there! I assume countless foreign countries and news organizations do exactly that.

The "Pizza Meter" is a fun... thing. It's a nice lesson on how data can "leak" even if nobody is actually actively disclosing information directly.

There are several 'boutique' email providers (fast mail, proton, etc) that you can use instead of the big 3. You can even host your own MX server but use a relay service so you don't have to deal with IP reputation issues.

Because the form factor is the point of this board. There are already other smaller SBCs with the same SoC but with much less connectivity.
Caution here. If your modulus is too close to the maximum truncated value, there can be a bias in the upper bits, too. For example, if you reduce a number between 0 and 15 by the modulus 13, the values 0, 1 and 2 will be twice as likely as the values 3-12. This means that the highest bit will be 0 in 11 out of 16 cases. Even such a small bias might be exploitable (for example, sub 1 bit bias up to 160-bit ECDSA here: Gao, Wang, Hu, He https://eprint.iacr.org/2024/296.pdf)

Of course, ostensibly. However, for starters, US hasn't been about real annexation since Hawaii 125 years ago, which is not the case for Russia/China that this thread has been about. Iraq was a very major fuckup, even though Saddam was an awful dictator and House Democrats voted against it. Afghanistan was a massive waste, but after the initial Bin Laden operation, was for the naive cause of actually making a functional democracy for the people there, without which women are currently uneducated property. Israel has the double sided problem of their far right wing wanting to annex West Bank while violence escalated 100x by the Oct. 7th assault. Not exactly a peaceful neighbor gets invaded to upend a stable status quo for decades...

Interesting! The handbook contains a lot of useful information.

I noticed that it emphasizes the importance of documenting work to prevent bottlenecks in asynchronous communication. It also discusses choosing the most effective form of media for conveying messages.

What does this look like in practice? How easy is it to find relevant information in the archives or documentation? Are there times when you cannot locate such information and must wait for the appropriate person to be online to get an answer? If so, what types of communications typically cause these delays?
Where are the cheap batteries? Getting installed right now. Grid assets are usually measured in MW or GW, but multiply by 3-4 to get the GWh.

EIA said developers expect to add 30GW in 2024 here:

https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=61202

Note the 7GW of batteries already in California, 3GW in Texas. Texas will move much more quickly than California now because it's a profit based market with few barriers to entry.

There were other estimates in 2024 were for 14.1 GW for this year, but IMHO 30 GW is much more likely:

https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=61424

We are at the start of an exponential growth curve. As prices fall, more demand appears. There are plans for massive amounts of battery production capacity. BNEF has tracked 7.9TWh/year of planned factory capacity by the end of 2025 (probably only 50%-70% of that will get developed):

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/newsletters/2024-04-12/china-...

However, this is exactly on track with the estimates I heard, 3 years ago now, of 10x growth in production capacity every 5 years. By 2031 we should see 20-30TWH/year of production.

I have asked my doctor friend about this and it's because university courses are tied to actual hospital placements and training, there's really a limited amount of students that can properly train to be doctors because they do half of it on a ward.
