You’re likely thinking of Methan’s global warming equivalent over 100 years which is 27-34.

As to how you weigh each it’s worth remembering that climate change often causes harm due existing infrastructure being ill suited to the new situation.

1m higher sea level rise 10,000 years ago would be irrelevant to us today because people would have built buildings based on the way things where. 1m sea rise in the future therefore is problematic because it renders infrastructure useless not because what the final sea level ends up being. Obviously some impacts are inherently harmful, but many things can be adapted to.
I think JS (well, ES6) has a ton of positive qualities, and I think it's a great fit for many of its current applications. However, this is a pretty good example of what bothers me about the way many people use it. I see a lot of folks, in the name of pragmatism, adopt a ton of existing libraries and services so they don't have to think about more complex parts of the problem they're solving. Great! No need to reinvent the wheel. But, people also seem to falsely equate popularity with stability-- if there's a ton of people using it, SURELY someone has vetted it, and is keeping a close eye on it, no? Well, maybe no? It just seems that the bar for what people consider 'infrastructure' is simply too low. While I don't think that, alone, is SO different from other popular interpreted languages, the light weight of JS environments means you need to incorporate a LOT of that stuff to get functionality that might otherwise be part of a standard library or ubiquitous stalwart framework, which dramatically increases the exposure to events like this.

I think a lot of people conflate criticism of JS with criticism of the way it's been used for the past number of years, putting a nuanced topic into a black-and-white "for or against" sort of discussion. I've done a number of projects heavily using JS-- vanilla, with modern frameworks, server-side and in the browser-- and aside from some fundamental annoyances with it's approach to a few things, it's been a great tool. There's nothing fundamental about JS itself that makes applications vulnerable to this like a buffer overflow would, but the way it is used right now seems to make it a lot easier for inexperienced, under-resourced, or even just distracted developers to open up big holes using generally accepted techniques.

But I've never been a full-time front-end-web or node dev, so maybe I'm mistaken? Compared to the server-side stuff I've worked with, there's definitely a concerning wild west vibe moving into modern JS environments. I think there was a casual "well, it's all in client-side userspace" attitude about the way it was used before which effectively shifted most of the security concerns to the browser. We should probably push a little harder to shake that. Think about how much JS your bank uses in their website? I'll bet they didn't write all of their own interaction libraries.

Could you elaborate? Is the part where the Democrat run executive branch put pressure on social media companies to censor topics fascism or is the Supreme Court ruling that the litigants did not have standing to sue the government for that fascism?
None of these.

The 'axiom of choice' isnt a property of the real world one way or another.

The issue is that physical measures (length, area, volume, etc.) require measure theory in mathematics to specify properly. The issue is the mathematics was too simple to model the relevant physical systems.

All of physics is specified in terms of a spacetime continuum, neither this, nor anything else, indicates that physics requires a revision.
An electric car is also more efficient and grid fossil fuels are better than a small ICE.

Still, I’m not really seeing the evidence that the grid is getting all that much greener. There’s a lot of solar capacity installed and yet every year we use more fossil fuels than the year before. It dents the growth a bit but it doesn’t seem to be doing a good job at replacing fossil fuels.

We need more gen iv fission, not more renewables, to meaningfully displace fossil fuels. And no, it’s not more expensive than solar even today if you add the cost of batteries which everyone seems to ignore when comparing solar/wind to fission. As for hydro, that resource is fully tapped; all the available capacity is fully in use at a significant environmental cost. Geothermal might be a good one but it requires a massive shift in where cities are located which limits its utility (HVDC remains extremely expensive).
Then you get to write 10x the vulnerabilities yourself and not have nearly the same chance of any of them getting disclosed to you!
To be clear, the construction given here violates the finite additivity property of measure. It's got nothing to do with the countable/uncountable additivity property.

Tuples can be up to 16,777,215 elements,
so quite substantial applications.

https://www.erlang.org/doc/system/system_limits

There is also some hope that future versions
of the Erlang compiler will allow mutable O(1)
update of tuple elements through setelement
(code inside a process is - almost - guaranteed
not to have shared references).

Safe destructive update of tuples has been implemented
in the compiler and runtime system. This allows the VM to
update tuples in-place when it is safe to do so, thus
improving performance by doing less copying but also by
producing less garbage.

Yes, Google made the Internet boring for ears now.

How many results would you expect for terms like "war", "peace", "elon musk", "bill gates"? I would expect billions. Google has the data. So why does it not want to share it with you?

- One reason might be that you will not be interested in articles from 2011... but that is quite sinister to me. Why Google should decide if I want to see results from around Bush administration?

- Second reason is that some links are not safe for Google. Google will not show you results for emulation, because it might violate some patents, IPs. It plays nice to the point in destroys the Internet.

- That is why I created list of domains https://github.com/rumca-js/Internet-Places-Database. I can search for something using my own off-line Internet meta data

- The other thing is someone mentioned to me that it is easier to maintain small list of links, which you can blocklist. For political reasons it is difficult to show the world as is

- Google is a potemkin village that showed you really good result as the first link, while trimming all the remaining links. Redirecting traffic from small sites to corporate overlords, since it made good deals with them

- In era where Internet is full of walled gardens, I think even Google might struggle to scrape everything from facebook, or amazon

This always comes up with copyleft licenses. It's rarely 100% clear what's allowed, except maybe the LGPL where the intent of the license is obvious. Everything else is some amount of a viral license, and it's safest to just avoid it.

I'm signed up for all the credit bureaus free accounts so I can freeze/unfreeze my credit. They send out reports monthly, along with one of my CCs. All of them have the reason. And yeah, the score is ~800 so it doesn't really matter. Still interesting to see how it moves with relatively small balance changes.
I also stopped by their booth and talked about trial access, and right away asked for easy access a la Google Collab, specifically without bureaucracy. And they are like "yeah, we are making it, but nah man, you can't just login and use it, you gotta fill a form and wait for us to approve it". Was very disappointed at that point.

That was a marketing guy BTW. I don't think they realize their marketing strategies suck.

The reason I brought that up is that often the implication people are hinting at when they suggest that total electricity production is significantly down, would be that Germans are using significantly less energy which has some quite worrying implications.

The thing I wanted to point out though is that the amount of energy used by Germans hasn't actually changed very much, it's decreased a little, but nothing like what would be suggested by the generation figures. This is just because mainland europe actually has a more integrated and interconnected electrical grid than the USA does, and Germany is importing a lot of energy.

> It'd be like a country importing all their manufactured goods - that would reflect badly on a country's manufacturing sector even if their overall quality of life was high.

In this case, it'd be like if a country decided to do something about the fact that some manufactured good they were producing was toxic, and so they lowered the amount they produce of that good, and substitute it with imports while they also rapidly ramp up their ability to produce a non-toxic alternative.

Unless you design your own silicon, build your own pc and peripherals, and write all your own software, there's always going to be a level of trust involved. But at least NoScript is FOSS so you can in theory examine the source code yourself.

Right. Exactly my point. You've got to have several dependents as a single parent to go back below the poverty line. With one or no dependents, it's virtually impossible.
I think this ignores just how much better GitHub is compared to its competitors — at least from my experience of using bitbucket at work. GitHub rightfully should have more market share.
You just use bad tools for that. When using custom AutoPagerize UserJS mod that utilizes pushState, endless scrolling works like a charm for me for years already. Like I can scroll to thousand-numbered items of HN seamlessly. It remembers the exact page you were on after you close the tab and overrides "target" property of added pages' links to open everything in new tabs regardlessly, preventing accidental page reloads. IDK why developers don't reproduce this.

Kinda sad more and more Web sites switch to pointless AJAX app model recently and it stops working for those.

You realize the irony of replying on a thread about an article saying we’ve grossly underestimated by 3x the amount of battery materials we’ll need? And that’s just for EVs, not grid batteries. Yes, there’s the far out idea of maybe we can use car batteries to do that role but our grid is not designed for it and there’s all sorts of other problems of that.

Fission is a much saner cost effective solution that requires much fewer ancillary changes than renewables would to fully move the grid.

It's possible they wanted it for themselves, but I know lots of addicts who steal shit because they know it is expensive, only to have trouble selling it later and then dumping it.

OTOH I've been privy to some "don't tell anyone about what I'm about to show you" moments from a group in LA that liberated some treasures from an institution that wasn't properly preserving them. Some places will let you check out even very rare items on a short term if you pay a deposit (sometimes hundreds to low thousands, a tiny fraction of the item's worth) and then you just tell them it got stolen and lose your deposit.
I wouldn't say they are very similar. Nix is a fairly barebone functional language, so it does embed fairly straightforwardly into other functional languages (including Nickel, but it's true for Haskell, OCaml, Dhall, Jsonnet, Scala, etc. as well - forgetting about Nix-specific builtins, as long as you have higher-order functions, records and arrays, you have the Nix core).

However, Nickel adds pattern matching and destructuring, reverse application, types, contracts and merging, which I think does lead to a quite different experience in practice. It's a bit like saying that C is similar to Rust (ok, so the analogy doesn't work as well for Rust as most C would be unsafe on non-idiomatic Rust) or C++: in some sense, yes, but developing in those languages is very very different.
I think there’s a toggle to just disable JavaScript entirely somewhere in the menus, but it is sort of inconvenient, because you can’t selectively enable sites that are too poorly coded to run without JavaScript.

Mozilla has marked NoScript as a recommended extension, which is supposed to mean they reviewed the code. Did they do it perfectly? I don’t know. But the same logic could be applied to the patches they receive for their browser itself, right? It’s all just code that we trust them to audit correctly.

It is definitely hard work, and it is even harder to make the economics work when you don't really have much of an easy to acquire steady source of materials. It is hard to scale when there just aren't the incoming materials yet.

I think we'll see a lot more growth in the recycling of EV batteries once more of this current generation of EVs are actually sent to recycling. They're just not very old yet, so there's not large flows of recyclable materials coming in quite yet.

The first Model 3's came out in 2017. I'd argue EV mass production wasn't really a thing until after that car's release and market acceptance. Not even a decade old yet for those cars, and it took a bit of time for those to really start shipping in volume.

Model Y's only came out in 2019 and took time to be delivered in volume. Mach E's started in 2021. Many of the other big legacy auto makers have really only started to ship decent volumes of EVs in the past few years.
Yes that is unfortunate. Safari had the option to toggle JavaScript via Shortcut until recently, but it was removed. The only browser I know which can easily toggle JavaScript now is Brave.

But uBlock Origin has that functionality, too, and I guess most people who would care about JavaScript have that already enabled anyways.

The web is so much nicer without JavaScript but easily activating it (via cmd-J) once it seems necessary without reloading.
That argument doesn't seem to be aging well.

I'd say that good [emphasis on "good"] coders can write very secure code. There's fundamental stuff, like encryption algos, that should be sourced from common (well-known and trusted) sources, but when we load in 100K of JS, so we can animate a disclosure triangle, I think it might not be a bad time to consider learning to do that, ourselves.
How hard is it to download your includes and host them on your own domain?

ICEs operate on a range of frequencies, so it blends into a form of “white noise”.

Cars from the same manufacturer typically have the same LSWA that stays at a single tone and might change in pitch only slightly with speed.

The spectrum covered by LSWAs is more concentrated to be audible to humans, so there will be convergence or an additive effect at certain frequencies. This will sound terrible.

> who knows what else […] making the language less expressive

There’s that slippery slope again. English isn’t getting less expressive, that will never happen. That right there is the “imagined, absurd end result”. The number of English words that have become politically incorrect over our lifetimes is completely dwarfed by 1) the better, more expressive synonyms and alternatives available and 2) the number of new words introduced into English over the same period.

I hear you, and I agree that it’s stupid that a couple of previously unrelated words have become tainted, and they shouldn’t have been. But it’s too late, it happened… in this case, over a hundred years ago.

Nobody is being rewarded. Racist word usage doesn’t seek to remove words from our lexicon. The words don’t actually go away, the choice to use or not use certain words is yours to make. Whether we offer other cultures any respect by choosing to avoid any innocuous words that happen to have a higher probability of being taken the wrong way is purely a personal decision. Which is why arguing about it might not be the best look, even if you’re right, right?
He's a lefty-turned-righty after the Portland riots broke his brain. An alternative interpretation is that he's a lefty with a brain. ;D I don't know why the other person automatically banned that as "trash politics". To me, "trash politics" are the self-destructive DEI puritanism that he rants about which is presently destroying Red Hat.

Of all the right-wing grifter types, he seems like a unicorn of sincerity and niceness. He's not transphobic; he just hates pronoun drama ruining good things. In other words, the correct and based take which should prevail. Either way, he's also virtually the only person reporting on lefty insanity in tech.

The Nvidia 555 diver implements something called explicit sync, which fixes a bunch of issues people had when using Wayland:
https://zamundaaa.github.io/wayland/2024/04/05/explicit-sync...
That’s not my point, my point is that the cost of goods (which is itself only one factor that influences pricing) is not exclusively determined by the cost of operating the network. Implementing the kind of payment network that the cards brands have is incredibly costly upfront, which requires developing all the IP, implementing all the systems, and establishing business relationships with millions and millions of parties to get the network in place. Now that they’ve committed to all that upfront cost, where does the moral authority to impose price controls on them come from? It costs Adobe close to $0 to allow me to install creative suite, so why should the price to me not also be close to $0?

The outcome of this sort of regulation is that nobody wants to invest in establishing or innovating large networks like this. Which is why all the recent innovation in payments has been centred around terrible, highly fragmented, in-app payments and EMIs, and that’s certainly not a win for consumers.

I think there are two different things here.

1. Are the things that are being measured the right things?

ie for teachers, you might look a pupils future job prospects, suicide rates, incarnation rates, or some measure of happiness, rather than the immediate test scores.

The wrong targets can cause damaging distortions.

2. Often the aim is to reduce poor performance by being prescriptive - but you have to be careful not to do that by reducing variation at both sides ( ie which includes constraining high performers ).
