> most, if not all, nuclear power disasters were due to human error

How is this less of an issue? Are modern reactors not built and operated by humans? We have better sensors and more digital components now, which reduce the risk. But the risk for a wind turbine is, and always was, zero.

"It worked" but for what? Usually the idea is to focus on user growth first, and then eventually turn a profit, but what difference does it make if you succeed with the first step if you haven't even thought about the second step, much less be able to succeed with it?

EU, one of the most successful peace projects of human history, is based on the idea that tight economic integration leads to peace.

Obviously not working out in full with Russia, and I think Germany could've put themselves in a far better situation energy wise. But, it still stands that the core purpose of EU has been fulfilled. And very easy to judge in hindsight.
The context comments you replied to is weapons. In the US (and many other places) we can carry them without a hall pass, and it's a good thing.

You don't agree; but pretending that you can carry a pointy object in this context "legally" as long as it's "not a weapon" is like saying you can protect your life as long as the other person agrees with you; it's newspeak.
The books weren't accurate though.

Autonomy sold a lot of hardware and booked it as sales, but hide the costs as marketing.

The also signed deals with resellers and recorded it as sales, but without actually selling software to the end customer.

This made their proprietary software look far more valuable than it really was.

The anti-nuclear mentality is driven by mid-70s/early-80s Pershing-II, Chernobyl, Wackersdorf, Waldsterben and red terrorism, which created identity for large groups of Germans alongside trauma.

"most other surrounding countries."

Except Austria no other country had as much fallout after Chernobyl (in the West, and it was silenced in Eastern Europe, see GDR) - especially Southern Germany (Chernobyl happened around Wackersdorf riots in Bavaria).

Is US gun policy idiotic? Yes, but large groups of Americans have tied their identity to it, and can't give it up. Look at anti-nuclear opinion in Germany the same way.
It still has good communities I'd say. It depends hugely on the mods. There's nothing else like /r/anime, for example.

I do believe apple’s e2e encryption promises on iMessage content, and don’t think it should interfere with their ability to control for spam / bad actors.

But I also expect them to know the sender/receiver, and I imagine if I click “Delete and Report Junk” button, that I would probably submit the unencrypted contents of that whole conversation to Apple. And they should have also have metrics of total sends vs reported sends.

The argument agains nuclear is not irrational. The true cost of nuclear is not sufficiently priced in. Example from recent history here in Germany the nuclear interim storage mine Asse is leaking and the garbage has to be recovered. Cost estimated to be 3.7 billion tax payer money. There is no solution for safe nuclear garbage storage in sight.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asse_II_mine
I think that's true. For private use, it's fine, except for the added cost. But overall, even there, I don't particularly see the benefit aside from the glamorous appeal.

As an analogy, a Rolex is a great watch. Is it objectively a functionally better time keeping device than a Tissot or most any other time keeping device? Not really. But I'll concede, it looks great and it makes a statement that a lower cost device doesn't make. There is value in that.

It's just that, for me, that justification doesn't weigh against practicality when considering the importance of a tool so critical to one's success and happiness in the modern world.

I was a big Apple fan in the 90s when Apple's Motorola chips really did have a big advantage in productivity for graphics and video production, and even just raw computational prowess. Especially when coupled with the superior UX of OS 7 compared with the competition of the time. But, the modern hardware and software landscape is very different.

I try to be objective enough to embrace the best utilitarian solution, regardless of brand or marketing. And, if I care about looks, Asus, for many years, was using the same manufacturer that Apple was. They were even sued over the similarities. Even today, several brands make Windows and Linux purposed hardware that meets or exceeds the optical appeal of Apple devices.

I think Windows today fulfills the need for both personal and enterprise computing, while Linux fills the need for privacy and professional tech development. And each one does so in that respective category separately better than Apple does in either one. And that's considering all the flaws and glaring shortcomings and long running issues of both Windows and Linux (referring to desktop usage only), sadly.

These are the only published theories. The Ukrainian sailboat theory has been published in the WSJ just recently. If the downvoters know more, please introduce us to the third theory.
As much as I don't like Apple or Steve Jobs, it's clear that they're missing a visionary who owns this sort of project and has a specific vision in mind. I doubt the Vision Pro would be flailing like this and Apple wouldn't be second-guessing itself and canceling related projects or reorganising. Maybe it's the lack of a reality distortion field or just a lack of somebody to present or develop a holistic vision for this project both internally and externally, somebody who has long-term dreams that would be fulfilled by this project, eventually.

If even Apple doesn't know what to do with it and is doubting itself, why would anybody outside Apple have faith in it not being quietly discontinued in the coming years? So why invest in the platform? Why do research and develop use cases for it?

Jobs knew how to sell something, but more importantly, he knew how to sell the future of something, the potential.

In UK we have legislation that protects buildings if they're significant (eg peculiar, famous, old). Perhaps we should have a law requiring digitisation of significant artefacts (at public expense) in order to sell works that may be of historical/cultural significance.

Honestly, I couldn't care less about keeping original documents, but preserving images of those documents seems reasonable.

Same would go for selling artwork or artefacts, offer true opportunity to national museums to retain a digital copy.

Fwiw, I like old artefacts, papers, books, even rusty old filling cabinets, but I don't see value for the country in preserving those things.

Also fwiw, I think the Listed Building laws go a bit far in some cases: preventing people's reasonable enjoyment of their own properties.
On one hand, Russia can do "green-washing" psyops to create German anti-nuclear sentiment. On the other, Russia creates the implied threat that in some future war a Russian missile will hit a German nuclear powerplant. Well played, Mr. Putin.

Up until a year or so ago, windows wouldn’t recognize the webcam of my hp-recommends-windows laptop.

On a different laptop, it refused to output 4k@60 through the HP dock. After it started working, waking from sleep would be a coin toss whether I would get any image at all, or something garbled.

Italian authorities open manslaughter investigation into superyacht sinking
The framing in the article is that Germany made a purely technical decarbonization policy choice between renewable energy and nuclear power and chose incorrectly, but this is too reductive.

Germany has a long history of public opposition to nuclear power, going back over 50 years, and this is related to environmental concerns, safety concerns, and the association with nuclear weapons.

Both the USA and the Soviets had nuclear weapons deployed on German soil with the potential to be directed at the German people and this cultural and historical context is important to understand the current policy landscape.

The origin of the popular Green party in Germany is deeply connected to the peace movement and anti-nuclear activism that pre-dates concerns about climate change.

It’s fine to disagree with the policy decisions the German people made, but it’s good to understand the reasons why they made them.

Not just to tourists, unfortunately a significant part of our (British) politics is selling our past to voters, as rose-tinted "good old days" emotions at the expense of focussing on how to make the best of the current situation (which, let's face it, despite no longer being as much of a global power as during the empire days were still an extremely privileged country compared to global averages).
Will this attempt work out commercially? Maybe, maybe not. But more interesting here is the strategic situation beyond the currently understood tech.

The US has made it clear that it sees semiconductors as a vector to attack power centres in Asia. Today it is China. Democracies are notoriously fickle, tomorrow it could be India, Japan, Korea or anyone really. There is a strategic need here to break the remaining European monopolies on equipment supply. For China the need is urgent but for all the Asian powers the need is real.

Given the manufacturing powerhouse that the collective Asia represents, I expect they'll figure all these details out and become technologically independent at least on paper. They've had more than a century of experience in dealing with the west, the risks of the status quo are too obvious once the US is overtly exploiting it.

> and it's a good thing.

Well, you think it's a good thing. Lots of us think it is a bad thing. Luckily, we live in different countries with different laws.

Similarly, in the UK, I'm free to buy a Kinder Surprise and give it to a child to eat, and it's a good thing. But your government bans chocolate - https://metro.co.uk/2022/04/07/why-are-kinder-surprise-eggs-...

Throughout Europe, we're allowed to eat whatever cheese we like. Something that your government wishes to protect you from. https://thecheesewanker.com/lifestyle/8-famous-cheeses-that-...

Every country has a difference tolerance for risk. You may think that your weaponry allows you to live free - but for lots of us, it is an unacceptable risk.

We think people should be allowed to eat chocolate and not get shot. You think that is an unacceptable risk.

Vive la différence!
No analysis of costs if Germany had adopted a strategy of transitioning to renewables in 2002 is offered, you are just meant to look at figure 2 and say take it on fait it is the result of a coherent green transition strategy rather than Germany dallying and going back to its traditional coal power.

Looking at the behaviour of e.g. Hungary as an EU member state and Russian puppet at the same time, I'd like to disagree here.
When Ukraine war started for example, there were many lists of oligarchs, "Putin's circle" cieculating around. These would lead to, even when there were no sanctions, activism against these names and avoidance of doing business with these names.

Divide & Conquer: (1) Put list of your enemies names on a wall, making then more vulnerable. When they are unable to appear neutral or allied to someone else than your enemy again, they will become socially isolated. (2) Cause some reason why everyone should be scared of being an ally of your enemy. (3) Take down your enemy, knowing no one will come in defense of them.

Note that my first example does not refer to the assasinations of Russian oligarchs, and I only speak of targeting as a tactic of Divide & Conquer strategy.
They're conventional missiles, not nuclear. And nuclear capable is a bit misleading here as that capability was dismantled for the Tomahawk cruise missiles. Of course the US could add it back with some effort, but that goes for essentially every missile that is large enough.
Huh, this is super interesting, thanks for sharing!

I'm doubtful it can be ruled out with a handwavy gesture. Given just how much Russia has invested into Elite capture you know they will set everything in their power to make the west suck up their Gas deliveries.

Both were certainly there – a guilt made psyops far more easier for Russians. But this energy related psyops have been everywhere. I've experienced it almost first hand. After decision to decommission Ignalina Nuclear Power Station in Lithuania there have been joint attempts to build a new one with Estonia, Latvia and Poland. Russian "No need! Dangerous! Russian gas is cheap!" influence during these talks was very prominent. This was also very much there during 2012 Lithuanian nuclear power referendum.

This was recently posted to HN and I started to read it.
I think your explanation for web components is the best I encountered so far.
Every time an article--such as this--is posted somewhere, it's immediately followed by a series of responses where one is unable to make a web page work the way they want it. Often there is no representation of the markup they used. More often the markup they show is invalid and nonsensical.

In other posts about programming languages, you can't write invalid code because the compiler will complain and stop. When the browser fails to render your HTML, one complains about HTML and rants about how it was developed in the 1990s while forgetting that their own programming language might have been developed long before that.

I've been developing web sites commercially for 25 years. I have no such issues making highly performant, modern and cool web sites.
It’s not free when it’s costing me time.
This is a boring and tired take, I’m sorry but it is.

Might as well take it to the logical conclusion that if you aren’t creating all your components (I’m taking IC’s, transistors, etc) by hand then are you really learning or increasing your skill. You’ve picked an arbitrary point in the tech stack and declared that any lower is not needed but any higher means you’ve lost control.

It’s like the people that scorn higher-level languages.

Decentralized means there are many centers and if you don't like one center you can go to another one - the system as a whole has no center. You are here on the non-reddit forum system, which has no single center, but rather one or more separate centers for each discussion topic, unlike the reddit system, which has one center.

You may be thinking of distributed systems, like blockchains, which have no centers at all. Nobody is using those for social media yet.

Whilst I'm not in any way arguing in favour of destroying culturally significant works, you've completely mischaracterised the answer you linked to.

> "Who would want to watch a program twice?"

This isn't even remotely what was said.

The answer makes it clear that it wasn't feasible to air some programs again, due to the fees that must be paid to actors etc., and as such:

> So, if a programme could not be aired again, what was the point in keeping it?

Which is a reasonable line of thinking for the British _Broadcasting_ Corporation.

> "Wow, isn't storage _expensive_?!"

Yes, it was. But the answer makes clear that it wasn't just an issue of storage costs; the _tape_ was extremely expensive, and could be reused. So it was.

> When I worked in the tape library in the late ’60s a one hour reel of tape cost the equivalent of six weeks of my pay. Storage was expensive too.

One final point I would make is that the BBC is publicly funded. It doesn't have unlimited funds, and its primary function is to create content. As the answer clearly states:

> Some samples of programmes were kept as being of interest, but the BBC saw itself as a maker of programmes not a museum.
