If s3 is the goal, there is gof3r which can be piped into i.e. skip storing mybackup.zfs.bz2 locally.

Overall, I didn't see if they've identified the bottleneck.
My guess pbzip2 is the slowest, ssh second. For compression bw I'd check zstd. For ssh there are various cipher/compression options. Or perhaps skip altogether and use wireguard.

A great deal of the money trickles down from the Olympics/IOC (WADA).

Individual sporting bodies are also under a great deal of pressure to comply with WADA standards, since there is a very real threat of being kicked out of the Olympics for insufficiently draconian enforcement (a perennial story with Weightlifting / IWF). So in many cases the athletes themselves pay for it via their dues to their sporting body.
If the argument is that "We can't say that the atomic bombs were the catalyst for Japan surrendering because the surrender happened after a bombing and Soviet war declaration therefor they are confounding factors" then the same holds true for the argument that the Soviet invasion was the catalyst for surrender.

Now I will say that I have not read Hasegawa's book but Wikipedia says that it is "challenging the widely accepted orthodox view that the atomic bombings on Hiroshima and Nagasaki were the most decisive factor in Japan's decision to surrender ending the war against Japan."

It will be interesting to read but it looks like that it is not the accepted theory and that primary sources from the era were destroyed on all sides.

Nit: the title in the article is kinda wrong; Dark Matter is a set of observations for which we do not have a proper theory that explains it. It's not an "answer" or a "solution". We say it's "matter" because it interacts gravitationally.
Summary: utilities will use dynamic rating and other tricks to squeeze a bit more performance out of existing lines.

(Transmission lines have losses, these heat up the wires. If they get too hot, they droop too much. So they have a maximum power rating. Dynamic rating takes weather effects into account to vary that maximum.)

There is no direct comparison vs JS but C# is much[0] more capable than Java at number crunching tasks because of its low-level features.

The better showcase would be complex application code where JS cannot keep up with .NET or JVM no matter how much you optimize V8 due to dynamic typing and even simplest operations like property access needing inline caching and guards.

> Any useful implementation of a CPU has an enormous number of internal details that aren't implied by the ISA.

If anything, I'd say that it's precisely because of this independence that an ISA can be seen as a separate work from any of its existing implementations. So what I'm trying to get at, is that if an ISA is copyrightable at all, in whole or in part, then any complete re-implementation will be copying most of the ISA's own substance, regardless of differing internal details. (Where by 'ISA' I specifically mean the external interface that software can access.)

It is still largely automatic. Some amount of special annotations are needed in all these related approaches. For example, in this article, @CompilationFinal is used in Graal interpreters.

The CRT requirement has pleasantly eroded recently.

A kickstarter a few years back for the Sinden light gun [1] realized that by using webcams, some quick image processing and perspective transforms, you could make a light gun work anywhere and could get real-time performance on non-CRTs by essentially adding a small border region of the screen, making it work on essentially any monitor. He filmed and wrote extensive technical breakdowns about the build process and mechanics at play, which were great.

The maker also seems to have had a solid understanding of what made those old light gun games cool, because he made sure to build versions with solenoid-based recoil as well as the big chunky metal foot pedal you’d use for games like time crisis.

> I don’t really see how it helps here.

It doesn't help at all. That issue is entirely orthogonal to "open vs proprietary" ISA. The ways a compromise can be implemented are effectively infinite and need not be anything as obvious as an undocumented instruction. A predictor, for instance, can detect a specific sequence of instructions and fill the pipeline with whatever it wants: no undocumented instructions involved at all.
Here is the thing: planning a grid is always done with cost in mind, we do not build golden pylons for the sake of it.

But on the other hand, reasonable grid planning is done a decade ahead, more for some equipment. Money spent in a hurry is likely to be wasted in that business.

Storage to optimize grid (not production) cost is neither efficient nor resilient as far as I know.

Also having a peaker plant solves production peaks, not transmission limits. And nobody builds a second peaker at the other end of a line to save on grid costs. Redispatching is a thing, but it is a small optimization, not a solution to an underdeveloped grid.
It seems like it's a similar thing to sugar. The optimal amount of alcohol or sugar is not absolutely zero, a lot of foods we eat that are healthy have them, just at much lower concentrations and lower amounts.

A glass of orange juice is about the equivalent sugar of two large oranges, without any of the fiber to slow the digestion. Similarly, a beer is about the equivalent ethanol of an entire loaf of bread, without any of the fiber to slow the digestion.

Seems like almost every creative industry (music, video games, art, writing) is having the same issue: Creation & publication tools are getting cheaper & easier to use, which means a lot more people can publish their creative ideas. With such a huge number of choices, discovery is now the issue.

IMO discovery of what is truly high quality is still an unsolved problem. Seems like recommendation systems generally just recommend things that are already popular. For someone that has zero following, but an interesting creative product, there's not much they can do. You're kind of relying on either "going viral" or hoping that someone with a lot of followers takes notice of your work and draws other people in.
I don't want to work on software where bugs might cost someone their life.
Maybe it will some day. I have two electric cars in my garage sitting idle most of the day and night. I have no way to connect them to the grid in a bidirectional manner. There is nothing a local electrician can order and install for me that will allow it. If I had a Ford Lightning truck, they could get me a proprietary Ford Charge Station Pro (which doesn't use ISO 15118-2), that's about it.

I'm unsure what you mean by three significant figures. 99.8%? 1.57% 1,240?

Front end as part of the engineering culture
The solution seems obvious in the use of wind turbines: when the wind blows there is power, the lines are cooled and the cars charged. No wind, no power, no need for cooling.

Am I missing something? A <sarcasm> tag maybe?

On a more serious note on how to get people to change their electricity use there is a real solution in flexible (hourly) pricing. This is what we have where I live - Sweden - and it can be a way to lower electricity bills quite a bit [1] by moving power hogs like water heaters, tumble driers and car chargers to the lowest-priced times of day. If you have solar panels and a contract which enables you to sell excess power at market rates (like we do) you can decide to feed their output into the net when prices are at their peak - usually around noon and somewhere between 17.00 and 21.00 (when it is still quite light in much of Sweden given that we straddle the polar circle) - while using most of it for power hogs off-peak.

[1] on the assumption that flexible pricing is controlled by supply and demand, not by some policy-enforcing surcharge. Electricity prices need to be able to go lower as well as higher than 'normal', not just normal or higher.
"relegated" seems like the wrong word - the best ones IMO were the later arcade versions like Gunblade NY (pivot mounted machine gun style) or the Time Crisis series (big foot pedal to take cover) with special hardware that would be too expensive for home sales.
In a perfect world... Unfortunately with each update of Rocket.chat and Mattermost they've begun to limit or cripple the self-hosted, open-source, non-paid versions.

At some point the community will likely need to create on-going forks to maintain the nice features we take for granted today. For example, I'm working on alternative Mattermost SSO compatible out of the box with the latest open-source version. Mattermost self-hosted, with an alternative (non-paid per user) SSO is good for 99% of use cases, but then again, they'll start to see that and cripple away bit by bit.

I've recently heard good things about Campfire Once, may ultimately be better option compared to rundle everywhere.

Though Mattermost really is nice... sigh.. can't have nice things.

I geniunely think "anti doping" as a policy practice stands against everything that makes human as a speicies progress as a physcially being. 'Doping' should proudly inducted biomedical research, regulated and commercialized. Because anti-doping is fundamentally a flawed concept, it does not surprise it's application is marred with corruption, negligence and incompetence.

Ten years ago I wrote a science fiction novel in Finnish, printed 300 hardcover copies at my own expense, and gave them away to people over the years. I would guess less than 10% of those copies have actually been read. (A few people claim they liked it, but of course that doesn't necessarily mean they read it.)

So, a waste of time and money? That's not how I feel about it at all. The creative process was illuminating. And as you say, it's satisfying to think that there's now a physical artifact of my mind that's longer and deeper than any other work I've produced, and it will probably stay for a while on somebody's bookshelf after I'm gone.
It seems to me this data could be used to correlate a species/genus to a location if one knows where the samples came from. If one also knows the date of the geological strata the samples came from, then one also has a date correlation.

There are only 12,000 coal miners in WV. Only 45,000 in the whole US. Obviously there are a large cast of others supporting the miners directly and indirectly (e.g. truck drivers, manufacturers of mining equipment, etc).

There are 341 million other Americans that have an interest in where our energy comes from (and what goes into our atmosphere).

(I'm all for generous support for any American facing major disruption because of macroeconomic changes btw. Getting rural places a fair share of national prosperity is a national problem)
The market is dominated by large publishers. They do not need to compete, they have already won. At the same time, they don't want to loose the marketshare, which makes them less likely to bet on an unknown author.

That is truly insidious, but FWIW, you don't need to abandon Windows entirely because of this. There are ways of creating a custom Windows installation disk that removes OneDrive, along with other bloatware, spyware, and pretty much anything else you don't like. Look into tools such as Tiny11 Builder, MSMG Toolkit, NTLite, etc. This is a decent guide[1] for setting all of this up.

The process is quite tedious and takes a few hours, but in the end you end up with a personalized version of Windows, without any of the garbage. You still need to be vigilant of Windows Update undoing some of this, but you can also disable it altogether and manually cherry pick the updates you want to install.

It's insane that Microsoft is building such a user hostile OS that forces users to resort to this, but if you absolutely must use it, the experience after doing the above is not so bad. I've been running a custom install of Windows 11 for about a year now without any issues.

A lot of people, including myself, feel similar when looking back at WWII. The roles of good and evil were very clearly defined and that has forged the US foreign policy up to today.

Of course, there's a lot of things we know now which show the conflict was a lot more complex, but at its core, the Axis needed to be defeated for our western style of freedom to exist.

I don't think we'll ever have something as clear cut as WWII again. News was highly controlled by a few media institutions and our country (US) was much less fractured than it is today.
