If you're going to mention OpenTTD, you should check out the much deeper Simutrans as well.
This can also be because they bought hardware from a bad vendor, like Ubiquity, which used to support IPv6… in software routing only giving it a max throughput of something like 50mbps on their small business/prosumer hardware. There are also routers by brands like Microtik that have garbage IPv6 throughput unless you flash OpenWRT which packages the driver that enables hardware IPv6 routing, something that somehow wasn't included in the official firmware.

All of these devices claim to support IPv6 and technically they do, so shopping for decent hardware quickly becomes a minefield. Seems to me like consumer hardware has better IPv6 support than the supposedly professional tiers.
Static templates for SQL becomes a chore to express dynamic queries. A dynamic query depends from incoming request. For example search filters should add or delete conditional expressions for a query.

I have a little research[1] on dynamic queries.

Definitely nice, and Typer is one of the few Python libraries that is actually well designed. But Typer is competing against shitty argparse. This is competing with clap-derive which IMO is already very good and "boilerplate free". E.g. how does the comparison look with help messages?

Nice work anyway!

Apart from the fact that it's a mistranslation as others said, it should be pointed out that the medieval comedy is just a generic term for play or story, and not necessarily funny. The term defines the intellectual level of the language as "midrange", as opposed to the more complex tragedy or the simple elegy; and it roughly indicates a positive ending, again as opposed to tragedy. We have letters in which Dante himself explains this. Humour should not be expected, although there is some satire to be found in the Inferno (which is only one third of the Comedy).
Here's my favorite one so far:

It is precisely because individuals suck so much at correctly perceiving the allocation of value that free market economies ("capitalism") completely blow centrally planned ones ("socialism") out of the water.

So the fact that you think money is divorced from reality is a very normal, mundane misconception.

When I lived near Luke AFB in the early 70's, Luke was training Luftwaffe pilots to fly F-104 Starfighters. I used to ride my bike onto the base and go to the flight line, and watch those lawn darts take off. They'd get halfway down the runway and light the afterburners! Freakin' awesome. Oh I wanted to be a pilot soo bad.

An F-104 was little more than a pilot strapped to a monster of a jet engine.
Sure, you can generate a project without Ecto and so on and pretty much use only Plug and Channel. There are flags you can pass to phx.new that excludes functionality.
Relying is the important point. Sure, it may be fine, but it often isn't, and probably is uncomfortable in winter. And that's before we get to energy losses.

> I'm not sure they have a concrete plan

Which "they" .. the Coalition in Opposition, the Labor Government, the various multi billion dollar private sector players (Santos, Fortescue, Rio Tinto, et al)?

In the time frame through until 2050 all will get a chunk of the decision making and execution.

The greatest driver for massive large scale solar and battery (off peak energy storage for use) technology is already the mining industry - fleets that move a billion tonne per annum use a lot of guzzleline.

> sites the Uni of Melbourne identified for pumped storage.

https://energy.unimelb.edu.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0003/15...

These form one type of battery that is viable to varying degrees in some locations; great in the Snowy mountains and Tasmania, more difficult to execute elsewhere and they have their own pros and cons - thankfully there's a spectrum of "batteries" to draw upon - thermal heat storage and less mass efficient (ie. not suitable for cars but great for fixed locations) iron and other non lithium variations still have untapped potential.

> If they have a plan, it looks to ..

Politically there's not much planning from either party .. what is more probable is the policies will flow from both industry and scientists in the public sector, the pollies on either side are flopping about like landed fish at the behest of various traditional mining and energy sectors.

> The one and only thing they look to have ruled out is nuclear.

If "they" is the current crop of pollies then they have the "ruling out" grandfathered in already:

Nuclear power is prohibited in Australia, principally by two pieces of Federal legislation - the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act); and the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Act 1998 (ARPANS Act). These laws effectively prevent the construction or operation of nuclear facilities for power generation, as well as facilities for the fabrication of nuclear fuel, uranium enrichment and the reprocessing of nuclear waste.

It's been ruled out for more than a quarter of a century.

The pragmatic economic feasibility of overturning that past legislation is twofold, both

* it costs more than other options, and

* by the time the first one is up and running it will all be over

are both in play here (see the most recent CSIRO energy futures report)
PPP is an increasingly irrelevant notion in a globalized, digital, and immigration-friendly world. An iPhone or a Toyota Corolla costs the same in the US as it does in China. There is no remarkable arbitrage with real estate either - you're paying for the location and everything that comes with it. There is no secret city where the rent is low, there are plenty of well-paying jobs, you enjoy freedom of speech and can be reasonably sure the milk isn't tainted with melamine (tangent: due to strict US immigration policies and corporate RTO, the Bay Area comes close).

PPP suffers from the same problem that "basket of goods" CPI suffers from in that it doesn't account for differences in quality:

- of course a car costs more today than it did in 1980, it's a far better car

- of course a loaf of bread costs more in California than it does in India - I have certain guarantees about the pesticide levels in the wheat, the accuracy of the labeling, and my ability to seek damages from the legal system in case I chip my tooth on a stone, that I don't have in India

At best, PPP tells you something about the differences in cost of labor. But labor isn't everything you buy.
Tvoc sensors react on many organic pollutants. For example dropping a few drops of alcohol jumps it up to astronomical values that linger for hours.

Bike LED lights tend to strobe when pushing the bike manually, which is very annoying. This is due to technical reasons with the dynamo and LED rather that programmed behavior afaik. But do LED bike lights that attempt to fix this issue (either be off or dim rather that flicker at low speed) exist? It's not a feature typically listed on their product descriptions...
There's no need to believe in an immaterial soul to think that a copy is a different 'you'.

It is enough to understand that having an independent "command & control" structure (for lack of a better word; C&C) is by definition 'you'. C&C means that the individual can perform a self-contained sense-think-act cycle.

We can infer this from the following:
1. Identical twins, despite having identical genetic structures, have separate C&C, and therefore qualify as separate persons.
2. Two siamese twins conjoined by the body (including parts of the head) have two C&Cs, and therefore qualify as two persons (with varying level of bodily control per person).
3. An individual with additional parts of the body (e.g., in a special case of being conjoined with a twin) has only one C&C and therefore qualifies as one person.
4. Clones are a special case of identical twins, and still have separate C&Cs, therefore qualifying as two persons.
5. A person in a coma or with another condition nonetheless qualifies as a person with some sense-think-act autonomy, despite being dependent on someone else for continued bodily functions.
6. An individual with a transplant (e.g., heart) or an extension (e.g., pacemaker) is nonetheless a person because of their consistent C&C.
7. An individual with extreme memory loss remains a person with C&C (in brain, body, genetics for the most part).

Any other special but naturally occurring cases (e.g., individuals with two brains, individuals with completely separated hemispheres, conjoined twins sharing a brain) would require either that we:
a. understand how brains and bodies work (and therefore, make a more quantified measure of how much of sense-think-act autonomy qualifies as personhood); or
b. decide based on a heuristic (1 brain = 1 person) or principle (protection of bodily autonomy, i.e., 1 body = 1 person).

But none of these need you to believe in a soul, in order to think that a digital clone is not 'you'. Unless, of course, you can prove that an individual either:
1. can sense-think-act with both physical and digital 'bodies' simultaneously and/or sequentially*, which share an equivalent experience (i.e., central C&C coordinating distribution or maintaining strict consistency across bodies).
2. can sense-think-act with either physical or digital 'body' at will, upon establishing a 'connection' and successful transfer of state (i.e., remote access).
3. can transfer whatever is necessary for C&C to another 'body' (e.g., brain transplant), and demonstrate beyond reasonable doubt that their C&C signatures in new body match the ones in the old one.

Dumb Phone movement appears on Spanish national TV
One of my friends from Spain sent me this link from La Revuelta earlier this week where the host talks about making his phone a “soviet phone” with just the bare basics.

Kinda crazy and cool to see people following this dumb phone style on mainstream national TV of all places, even just cleansing their home screen of all the dopamine instead of using a flip phone.

Rough translation for English speakers btw:

David Broncano: Look what I have as a wallpaper. Nothing.

Dani Martín: Nothing? Are you angry?

David Broncano: No, because I want to use the phone less, look what I did! My phone, if you unlock it, I took everything out. It’s like an ‘82’s phone.

David Broncano: Well there weren’t phones…like one in ‘97. I got it like this: I unlock it. Can you see it here? I unlock it and this appears: there’s not even icons. It only says: calls, messages, emails, browser. It has nothing, it’s a soviet phone from ‘99.
> Diamond batteries offer a safe, sustainable way to provide continuous microwatt levels of power.

> Several game-changing applications are possible. Bio-compatible diamond batteries can be used in medical devices like ocular implants, hearing aids, and pacemakers, minimising the need for replacements and distress to patients.

> The batteries could power active radio frequency (RF) tags where there is a need to identify and track devices either on earth or in space, such as spacecraft or payloads, for decades at a time, thus reducing costs and extending operational lifespan.
Quality can also become it's own trap as the entire org chases metrics aimed at quality. Soon you have loads of brittle tests that likely aren't adding great assertions but you have code coverage.

Because that doesn't work soon you keep adding layers upon layers to reduce the risk and your time to delivery suffers.

All knobs have consequences and long term they can really compound. The balance of picking quality over features isn't something I've seen done amazing. I'd like to work somewhere that could pull it off.
I had this the worst the other day. A car was following me and I kept thinking there was an emergency vehicle behind because I could see the blue fringe.

The worst thing about all these lights is they aren't static. For a start I can see the LEDs flickering, presumably due to PWM. Why a fully DC circuit that doesn't even dim the bulbs needs to use PWM is beyond me. But the worst is their "clever" auto levelling and dipping etc. It just looks like the light is constantly in flux which is really distracting and annoying.

Meanwhile in the real world, when Washington DC talked Bonn listened. Still applies today to some level.

Edit: Public opinion can also be shaped, not least after the trauma of the Nazi period and in the midst of the Cold War. Actual influence behind the scene is usually not made known to public, and the influence of the US over Germany has been overwhelming.
Of course they can afford it, its just a cultural difference.

> Many Europeans cannot even afford proper AC in summer and heating in winter.

Basically nobody lacks heating in winter, that one is made up. The thing people lack is AC and its just because people aren't used to it so they don't see it as a need.

Edit: Saying this is like saying people can't afford shelter in USA, it is true and there are many homeless but it describes a tiny fraction.
It's quite nice to see how technology has developed since then. A few years ago I wrote a wrapper around the openttd server to allow easier hosting (as well as putting it in a chroot) - now with docker/podman/... something like this is way more accessible. I've just created a mirror of the old repository on github, in case anybody is interested in that for historical reasons: https://github.com/bwachter/ttd_addons

https://github.com/bwachter/ttd_addons/blob/master/ttdconsol... is another example of progress - if I remember correctly at the time I did this inotify was in development outside the kernel tree. Nowadays solving this would be trivial with inotify on Linux - and other UNIX variants also mostly gained some form of file monitoring API.
> Require ownership all the way to prod and beyond

Ideally this sounds great, practically it rarely happens in modern organizations.

Companies, and corporations especially, do not like the idea of engineers having personal ownership over things, as that makes them harder to replace, i.e. reduces the redundancy of the organization.

unlike json crack, it’s not open-source or free. it’s designed for people who frequently work with json, yaml, csv, or xml in their daily workflows. i’m still developing everything on my own—hope you like it! :)
My theory is that other countries' trade is so closely tied to the US Dollar that when the Federal Reserve prints money it's not just diluting the US Dollar but all currencies. The US is effectively taxing the world, to pay for its own spending.

As evidence that the US Dollar plays a large enough role for this to be the case, half of the banks bailed out in the TARP program were foreign to the US (https://www.europeaninstitute.org/index.php/ei-blog/106-augu...) and trading is US Dollars.

> The problem is that corporate interests pushed for a car-centric society

I'd say it's more NIMBY interests than corporate interests.

The US, in contrast to Asia and Europe, builds sprawling suburbs, consisting only of single-family houses, with no multi-story apartment complexes and no other services/infrastructure in walking distance.

Most people would tell you that they don't want things to be this way, but will actually complain about proposals to make things better.

If you build apartment complexes, you can fit more people in a smaller area, which makes public transit a lot more economical. Add the fact that you don't need to go anywhere far at all for a lot of things, like grocery shopping for example, and that makes you need a car a lot less.

It's also worth considering that the US has been constantly rich for the last century or so, it has been far less affected by the second world war, dictatorships and communism than Europe and Asia, which made cars a lot less of a luxury, and hence made public transit a lot less of a necessity.

Leveraging cars as a self-reinforcing socioeconomic class boundary is a direct consequence of all of this, but also one more (self-reinforcing) reason why people need cars. You just can't do that sort of thing in Europe, if there are well-off people without cars, you can't assume that well-off people have cars, so well-off people will keep not having cars, and so it goes.
> Why not?

I don't know. I could speculate:

* The Perl they have is so low maintenance they don't think about it much
* Or they're planning to rewrite it but haven't yet got around to it... after more than a decade?
* They have nobody working on it that is vocal about it or active in the community/blogsphere/etc
* The company policy is to not talk about it
* Or talk about any tech they use - think: banks, large enterprise, fintech
* Or they're successful enough they don't feel the need to talk about it
* They're open source tools or distros that have a mass of other tech so Perl gets ignored even though its practically embedded - Linux distros, git, etc
* The Perl is on the periphery, or not the core logic - test suites (memcached for example), used in build systems, pipelines, Make, oneliners, etc

There's an argument to be had that Perl's strong backwards compatibility has meant it has sat there working in the background for years (decades in some cases). And, as most of us know, when tech "just works" it doesn't get talked about.
