Don't know how it works, but I do think that's how it should be. Municipality providers dark fiber from the CO(s) to every house.

From there, any ISP can rent rack space, and arrange their own backbone/uplink, and get wired to whatever customers they can. Municipality charges a fee to use the fiber, and that's it.

Muni provides the line to the CO, ISP is responsible after that. They can compete on their internet speed, price, support, and whatever else they want (Netflix box, email, low latency to game servers).

Muni could even add a "no-internet" free service that just provides access to city services, library, etc.
Often the mentally ill drug addict you see today was the person evicted after a job loss yesterday. Homelessness hurts people.
How is this related to the advice of "just say no to [insert harmful but palatable food]" not working for the past few decades? Moreover, even if you believe PUFA/seed oils are toxic, surely it's better to not consume sugar (and all the associated calories/insulin spikes) in the first place?
The person you're replying to is not the person you're quoting.

But also, the people with unsubscribe links now but not in 2002 would still commonly send their messages from a consistent address, making it easy to block them if you wanted to, and making even primitive spam filters highly effective against them. Meanwhile the people who randomize their from address to prevent this are the people who still don't have a functioning unsubscribe link.
Tiktok will actively tell you "all new posts viewed" on your following page, but it's a blatant lie, there will absolutely be videos posted by people I'm following it hasn't shown me. And it's definitely not just "maybe you saw it but skipped past it".

I'm starting to view social media more and more negatively over time. Maybe I'm just getting old. Maybe getting old is good?

How does the rest of the world not know things are so simple as they are described in internet forums?
Both. And one is a big causative factor in the other. Beyond the technological advances in manufacturing making shells more consistent and powerful and artillery pieces more precise, Great War artillery was essentially blind firing. You had a copy of a paper map produced by surveyors triangulating points. You think the enemy is in this grid square. You point your gun in that direction and calculate how much charge and elevation you need to hit a target at that distance, then you fire. Most of the time you miss. Even if you hit, you have no idea. So you form up your guns in batteries of hundreds, and you fire for hours on end, because it's the only way to guarantee effective hits on your target.

Artillery changes a lot once you have satellites and GPS and guided shells and drones, when the camera on your drone can point at something it sees and instantly turn that into a set of accurate coordinates that can instantly be transmitted to a battery that can instantly calculate a firing solution for those coordinates. You can fire one shell and achieve damage on target you'd need to fire dozens to achieve in WW1.

And this, along with the general technological advancement of war in every other way, means the scale is smaller. In WW1 you had to mass thousands of men in every kilometre because if you didn't then the enemy would, and overwhelm you with numbers. In Ukraine, whenever either side concentrates its forces beyond a handful of tanks and infantry squads, the other side hammers that concentration with accurate artillery as soon as they spot it. WW1 scale simply does not work.
Thanks for the info about Advil. I didn't know NSAIDs increased the risk of blood clots.
Thanks!

Right now, the idea of creating new content being "grinding" baffles me, but that's as a hobbyist developer of course. I'm sure I'd feel different if I was in a big company doing it.
It's also one of the most idiotic slogans in history.

Any slogan that requires a paragraph or Wikipedia article to explain what it "really means" is public relations malpractice.

And I'm coming from the side were I agree with much of the actual policy proposals behind it.

It boggles the mind of who came up with the line and thought, yes this is a political winner.

Sorry rant over.
Insite can almost be seen as a medical clinic. A hospital OR is a "supervised drug injection site" where you can be legally knocked out with propofol and fentanyl.
> Housing as an abstract investment that perpetually and magically gains resale value with no material change in what its underlying real property is a modern fiction and is essentially just the result of a prolonged speculative bubble becoming culturally normalized.

The underlying value increase is mostly from land value, not the actual house itself, which should depreciate. Increasing land value should be a good thing because it means the surrounding area is improving or becoming more productive.

But if it's uncaptured (especially by restricting construction in the neighborhood) it causes value increases which only benefits the current homeowners, and then only if they're lucky.
Probably because there's so many more of them. Maybe because being called not a real UNIX programmer feels different from being called a Blub programmer.
cool, didn't know that. And yeah, it's really exploding with htmx.
All human life is valuable. Measuring people's worth through "social utility" is such a fucked way to look at the world.
There will still be more and less reliable EVs, even if they are more reliable in absolute terms.
Do you like Huey Lewis and The News?
Seeing from a distant place and not having a horse in this race, I see several lessons to unpack:
1. The borderless and ambiguous relationships in technical communities is officially over, and everyone trying to do the opposite is just risking him/herself in terms of reputation.

2. Do the “I condemn X, let put my name in a public letter” nowadays in that kind of dispute without have access to all information it’s just a dangerous way to gain clout. You do not condemn anything, your 7K followers in twitter and 250 followers does not transform you in a public celebrity that put you in a position to condemn someone.

3. The side that settled with the person that committed the allegedly behaviour should celebrate the outcome because it was way light in comparison with other jurisdictions where it could converge to criminal charges.

4. More or less like aviation, you will not train to fly in the clouds in visual flight, but you will train to not enter in that situation in the first place. What I mean by that is everyone needs to operate defensively and cautiously when the social borders are not totally explicitly displayed. Questions like “Should I engage in that behaviour that can be misinterpreted?”, “is something goes south can I suffer reputational damage?”, “do I have the disposition and resources to defend myself and my position in court?” needs to be answered before engage in open letters and in interpersonal relationships in communities.
In bay area I can choose between PG&E and Silicon Valley Clean Energy for power. PG&E even handles the billing for SVCE.

In Finland there was local monopoly for delivery and power could be bought from numerous companies. I just checked offers for my old place and I could choose between 250 different products, some from same companies (e.g. fixed term/permanent, guaranteed wind power, market rate). In there you would get separate bill from your power company rather than it being handled by the local delivery company.

Ahhhh, classical air guitar with traditional thin white stick .. nice!
It is still a tradition where I'm from, New England. It's just a natural reaction when a family is in trouble, you make them a casserole or something substantial that keeps for a few days. I did it a few times this year already.

It's a way to express love and sympathy in a very practical, nourishing manner. I hope it never goes away.
Prepositions are a fundamental part of English, and having a celebration for a person [alive, or dead -- it doesn't matter] is using "for" as a preposition.
You are not alone. I was like tf is dude doing hanging around physics labs???

> I have a slight fascination with sweeteners. About five years ago I imported a kilo of "Neotame" sweetener from a chem factory in Shanghai. It was claimed to be 10,000-12,000 times sweeter than sugar. It's a white powder and came in a metal can with a crimped lid and typically plain chemical labeling. Supposedly it is FDA-approved and a distant derivative of aspartame.
US customs held it for two weeks before sending it on to Colorado with no explanation. When received, the box was covered in "inspected" tape and they had put the canister in a clear plastic bag. The crimped lid looked like a rottweiler chewed it open and white powder was all over the inside of the bag. I unwisely opened this in my kitchen with no respirator as advised by the MSDS which I read after the fact (I am not a smart man).

Despite careful handling of the bag, it is so fine in composition that a small cloud of powder erupted in front of me and a hazy layer of the stuff settled over the kitchen. Eyes burning and some mild choking from inhaling the cloud, I instantly marveled at how unbelievably sweet the air tasted, and it was delicious. For several hours I could still taste it on my lips. The poor customs inspector will have had a lasting memory of that container I'm pretty sure.

Even after a thorough wipe-down, to this day I encounter items in my kitchen with visually imperceptible amounts of residue. After touching it and getting even microscopic quantities of the stuff on a utensil or cup, bowl, plate, whatever, it adds an intense element of sweetness to the food being prepared, sometimes to our delight. I still have more than 900g even after giving away multiple baggies to friends and family (with proper safety precautions).

We have been hooked on it since that first encounter. I keep a 100mL bottle of solution in the fridge which is used to fill smaller dropper bottles. I've prepared that 100mL bottle three times over five years, and that works out to about 12g of personal (somewhat heavy) usage for two people in that time. Probably nowhere near the LD50.

I carry a tiny 30mL dropper bottle of the solution for sweetening the nasty office coffee and anything else as appropriate. Four drops to a normal cup of coffee. We sweeten home-carbonated beverages, oatmeal, baked goods (it is heat stable), use it in marinades, and countless other applications.

I don't know if it's safe. The actual quantity used is so incredibly tiny that it seems irrelevant. I'd sweeten my coffee with polonium-210 if it could be done in Neotame-like quantities. Between this, a salt shaker loaded with MSG and a Darwin fish on my car, I'm doomed anyway.
> Now, everyone is free to say they dont like the price, which is fair. However, the price is high because rich American customers dont care about the price. IF they did, they could always buy the cheap old thing.

I'm sure Americans that were rationing out their insulin would love to hear more about how they "don't care about the price" and you comparing their need for life-saving drugs to simply choosing to keep buying filet minion over cheaper beef cuts.
Braid and The Witness, his last two games, both used custom engines written in C++.
Thanks. Simple and dirty, but works everytime.

Even more, I put a vim shortcut so I can run it without leaving the terminal.
cool!

I like to sprinkle a little alpinejs in whenever I need some client-side things.
It sounded like sucralose(although it turned out to be neotame).

Sucralose is very potent, one knife tip sweetens 4l of water and the powder is very fine and tends to linger around. It's also very cheap.
I was using .gitignore generated by an aliased touch function in powershell. Despite my best efforts, I could not get git to respect its gitignore. Figured out the touched text file was utf-16 and basically not respected at all. Lesson learned I uuchanged a system default to utf-8 but just rely on my text editor now.
I'm sorry but you cannot begin to compare ATT or Comcast customer service with say even BT in the UK. And if I value say customer service highly I get to choose from one of a hundred or more ISPs. Zen, or A&A for example probably have some of the best ISP customer support in the world.

In many other spheres I will concur America has a better customer service culture. But I think alot comes down to taste and incentives. I am happy with not getting fussed over at a restaurant for example, and the odd frustration comes weighed against the fact I'm not really socially obligated to tip (although usually do).
Do humans use twitter? I thought it was mostly bots by now.
I was thinking more about pragmatic issues, and Java is a good example of them. It's a widely used language, but it's also a huge failure.

25 years ago, Java was supposed to be the new general-purpose language you could use for everything. Universities rushed to teach it to everyone. There was a lot of initial success, but then Java started losing ground. The direction the language was going was not good for many applications. And then lawyers got involved, which didn't help.

C++ is a general-purpose language. It's widely used, because it's widely used. The language is good enough for many tasks, and you can probably find the libraries you need and people familiar with the language. If you work in a niche with no specific reasons to use a particular language, C++ is often a good choice.

Rust is not there yet, because it's a new language with limited library support. But it does have momentum. The biggest threat to Rust as a general-purpose language is probably async. When there are strong interests to develop the language and the ecosystem for specific applications, other niches often suffer.
There probably are a few such patches, but I'm not aware of any.

Earth life, as a total entity, is amazingly adaptable to any and all circumstances.
Yup. Rust is too complicated. You don't think about getting the job done, you think about language specific crap that is just overhead. And it's ugly to look at.

I tried to like it, but I can't. It doesn't align with my way of thinking.
I'm a type 1 since 1982, went on 'human insulin' Regulal and NPH. I quickly was on a 3,000 plus calorie diet. I never altered it besides moving two of my three snacks into meals. I consume about 60% carbohydrates, I do about 30% fat. So I consume fresh brewed Yerba Mate with oolong added. Both mild and high in thenine. I also take melatonin. My insulin use is low for by body weight. Interesting that not avoiding sugar could be ok with a balanced diet and actually help the insulin be less oxidative.
Ah, I remember reading this paper! Essentially, they created synthetic data by solving search problems using A*. Trained on this data, transformers unsurprisingly learned to solve these problems. They then improved their synthetic data by repeatedly solving a given problem many times with A*, and keeping only the shortest step solution. Transformers learned to be competitive with this improved search heuristic too!

Pretty remarkable stuff. Given the obsession over chat bots, folk often miss how revolutionary transformer sequence modeling is to...well, any sequence application that isn't a chat bot. Looking solely at speeding up scientific simulations by ~10x, it's a watershed moment for humanity. When you include the vast space of other applications, we're in for one wild ride, y'all.
If you were to write the same code without using async you'd be trudging through a mess of callbacks and combinators. This is what writing futures code before 2018 was like. It was doable if you needed the perf but it sucked. Async is a huge improvement to readability and reasoning that we didn't have before.
So I actually tried out one of the newer fda approved aspartame related compounds, called Neotame. It’s pretty potent. Nice flavor profile.
Same here, it's a time for re-connecting with family and friends. We reminisce about the deceased, and we're connected by those stories. Some of the foods are generational, baked by great-great-aunts, or even a particular store-bought bakery good (Market Basket Donuts). No one would ever eat these on a regular day, but somehow, the platter disappears during the afterparty.
Probably. Apparently neotame is 5000~ times sweeter than sucrose. Another artificial sweetener 'lugduname' has a sweetness up to 300,000x sucrose.

Even before energy density passes jet-a electric aviation will start dominating and completely changing aviation. I suspect at the rate things are going that is just a few years away. One of the massive hurdles holding back innovation in aviation is certifying new engines. Electric motors are so simple that it will be much easier to certify them. Electric will also open up brand new aircraft designs since electric propulsion can go in places an incredibly hot jet engine can't. There are so many advantages that I can't wait for the next few years.
They're easy to use! I don't have to go through a site's normal login flow. 1Password just shows a standard prompt where I can click "sign in"

Additionally, it makes 2FA quite a bit more convenient.

Lastly it's the only way to login to my Georgia Tech account without opening an app on my phone which is absurdly annoying.
>now you're having to fire up a tokio runtime

I've been developing in (mostly async) Rust professionally for a about a year -- I haven't written much sync rust other than my learning projects and a raytracer I'm working on, but what are the kind of common dependencies that pose this problem? Like wanting to use reqwest or things like that?
The US has reliable access to cheap fuel, and diesel locomotives are still very efficient, especially compared to diesel trucks.
> You are taking their claims at face value.

They are entitled to that presumption until evidence emerges otherwise. (This is not the case in the UK!)

> A court case in the US would still require them to provide that substantiation, otherwise their claims could be considered libel.

No. A court case in the US would require Pretty to show evidence they had reason to believe the information was false for them to be liable for defamation.
Neotame is pretty nice stuff agreed.
Seeing presence/absence of semicolons in the list of primary features makes me wary.

And it takes a lot of people to make good tooling.
> Cultural Anthropology is a good field, but it is a qualitative field, and not a quantitative one.

I do both quant and qual research. I generally find my qual peers more methodologically rigorous, more thorough, and more trustworthy.

As far as I know there is no qual equivalent to Numeracy/precision bias.
Are you arguing against password managers or passkeys?
Mr Worldcoin?
Sounds like uploading a zip to the releases page of the GitHub page, and linking it from the readme would be a good way to fix this. Then you have something close to the original that OP wants, and also have the git repo that people can clone and fork and experiment with.
And for what it's worth right now, Charter Spectrum in the state already sells a 50mbps access package for $25/mo all-in with similar requirements.

So they just gotta save face and drop the price another ten bucks and figure out what broadcast fee they'll slowly increase over time to compensate across the rest of the customer base.
> the bictures shown were not an enclosed space.

Milking parlors tend to be pretty enclosed, and dairy farms being all enclosed was your original claim. Even the ones that let cows out to pasture or use external feed lots may have barns for winter, bad weather, safety at night, etc.

> If we grant an enclosed space then we can also apply air filters.

We could barely be bothered for COVID, let alone here.
The godot-rust project crates take a minor amount of adaptation to understand how it exposes the Godot object system in Rust but it's also pretty well developed.
The observation is that companies don't do things that lose money.

Or if they do, they run out of money and have to stop.

There is no "should" here. Just a description of how the world works.

Looks great! Apparently the self host docker has collaboration features also. Does anyone know if you can integrate it with nextcloud or owncloud or similar?
Probably not productive to throw out sound advice just because other strategies also seem to be needed.

Those are all health-positive choices that make for good advice, obesity epidemic or not. There's nothing wrong with sharing them and it doesn't hurt anyone to hear them, even if for the thousandth time. And you have no evidence that spreading such advice hasn't helped people, just that many people may still need other support as well.
Are there western countries with no incumbent telecom provider?

It is a fine concept but you'd have to actually ban infrastructure sharing between ISPs and be building a completely Greenfield network. Quite theoretical. I'm aware of former eastern bloc countries that have dynamics somewhat reminiscent of what you describe though.
Further south in the wheat belt, and often called BnS Inseminators Balls with the <cough> Hay day being more the late 1980s and 1990s.

Lot's of burnouts, circle work, lube slides, burning wrecks, food dye, and actual ball in a tent, fire engines, drinking, limousines (both real hires and "bush mechanic" stretched tractors), etc.

It's because the platforms realized that people are more interested in things they have not subscribed to.

Of course, this is disappointing to creators. 'They subscribed voluntarily, but the algorithm hides our content!'

As a casual user--the algorithm is more correct than I. I don't care about 90%+ of my subscriptions.

Everything I talked about here will apply to Factorio 2.0 as a whole, whether or not you have the expansion DLC.
Individuals can and do make non-financially motivated decisions. But in larger groups, especially a large corporation like J&J, you can apply the law of large numbers and determine that decisions are a result of incentives (primarily money).
> they've been forced by regulators to open up more and more of the stack to competing ISPs.

The 1996 US Telecom act did this and all kinds of local ISPs popped up to compete. We suddenly had cheap DSL all over the place; people left dial-up in droves.

But citizens don't write laws, lobbyists do. Within 10 years, ISPs had clawed back all their monopolistic control. Now most of the US is under a monopoly/duopoly again.
