High CO2 levels impair cognition and stale air accumulates pathogens, not just smells. The V in your HVAC stands for Ventilation, so you're already getting fresh air, that's probably why you have no complaints. If you live in an air tight apartment with no forced circulation where CO2 levels spike super fast requiring ventilation several times a day, it's a different story.

This part should probably go first. A few paragraphs in I started wondering if I'd stumbled across someone's LLM-driven experiment in fiction.
In a similar vein it’s been absolutely nauseating hearing borderline corrupt Conservatives in the UK moaning at every opportunity at the state of the country and its institutions and the idealogical and deliberate decline and underfunding of all of it (including energy).

Despite it being entirely their doing from almost 15 years of the Conservative government.
I agree with you :-) I like the "Hey it's been 10 years and now ..." approach.

Nothing strange about that at all? It's just not possible to stay in active contact with everyone one has met in life and likes being with. (Well, of course it depends)
But the text says "seems", not that it actually "becomes" soft at 9%. Depending on your view of language, whether the answer is there changes.
> Why Samsung even bothers maintaining DeX mode is beyond me.

It's not for everyone but for the ones that appreciate it it's a really powerful feature. I work whole days in DeX. I have docks at work, at home, at family where I stay a lot.

Not needing to drag a laptop around is amazing. I have both a personal and work VDI for when I really need it but 95% of the time I just work in Android with DeX.

It's definitely the #1 reason I buy Samsung

Blender is a bunch of things - but it is not, 1)a parametric program. 2)deals with complex geometry as mesh, VS nurbs 3) isnt really built to dimension 4)isnt really built for generating documentation which 99% of teh time is primary output of these programs - 2d sheets.

You can use it for 3d printing - but for engineering...nope. The Autodesk family of products / Solidworks are defacto for a reason - they have decades of tooling, libraries and so on that make lightwork of complex tasks. I'd tear my hair out trying to do my work in Blender which i easily do in Inventor, Autocad or Revit.
Yeah, exactly on the tactics issue. Computers used to be quite horrible positionally, but were still extremely strong simply because their short-term tactical vision was nearly perfect. And you really need tactics to enable positional play. Petrosian was able to snuff out tactical possibilities so effectively only because he was fully aware of where they were!

Now a days I think the tactics streak offered on Lichess (and probably on chess.com as well) is a really great tactical resource. It's the untimed option, rather than the much more popular tactics rush where you have e.g. 5 minutes to do as many as you can. I think the 'woodpecker' method of tactics is a great idea. Basically you build up on a repeated series of tactical problems, until you're able to complete them all perfectly accurately at an extremely high rate of speed. This seems contradictory, because the sites have massive tactics database, but you will regularly see the same problems due to the birthday paradox. If you're looking for some achievable ballparks, on Lichess I tend to be able to hit around 50 somewhat regularly, with a high of about 90.

I think the fundamental thing with openings is that so long as you make logical moves, even if you make an objectively weak move - you will very rarely reach a losing position because of it. And from that point on both your opponent and you are both out of book, so whoever understands the position better, and plays better, will win. Many people, especially adults, get caught up in obsessive opening study because it's the one form of chess study where results can be immediately felt.

The one very good thing about opening study is seeing ideas and concepts that you may not otherwise be able to come up with on your own. Like in the Najdorf, the pawn structure with d6+e5 and d6 generally firmly blocked and on a semi-open file leaves d6 feeling like a major weakness at first. The fact that it's generally rock solid was a serious eye-opener for me! And that translates strongly to many other positions - backwards pawns are not necessarily dooming one to passive defense, and can even be a great dynamic weapon!
Yeah, back in the day you'd be considered tin-foil hat if you thought you were being tracked and surveilled online. These days, you're tin-foil hat if you think you can avoid it.

Microsoft was the big bad wolf, but at the time, most of what they did that was so horrible was capture market share. You could still use a computing device and then leave it alone and it would leave you alone, it wasn't trying to constantly ping you and notify you and make you feel left out and use all kinds of dark patterns to feed the addiction. These days, computing devices feel more like trickster adversaries than clunky-but-useful tools.
Cloudflare Access is a great product, but TLS terminates at Cloudflare. They get to see everything, probably also passwords. Cloudflare will have admin access as the HA server.

It’s not as secure as VPN which is a better choice.
> Haha, makes me remember a comment from just the other day on Phoronix flexing that he booted into KDE, and it used only 1.7GB RAM (as a way to prove how lightweight it is).

Whenever i see such RAM usage scenarios i wonder what exactly is being tested.

Last time i checked, starting my environment had around 300MB of use (or something like that) - but when i measured (and stored) the free memory right before the window manager starts and a bit after, it turned out my window manager (Window Maker) actually only used about 5MB or so. The overwhelming majority of the rest was spread between background processes, many of them before even Xorg had a chance to blit a pixel on screen.

(and FWIW around that time i also checked KDE -it was KDE5 not 6- and its memory usage wasn't much, i don't remember how much it was but was much less than 1.7GB - probably 100-150 MBs or so, IIRC)
> In a company that has lots of other devs and lots of paying customers, I wouldn't be able to do things that way, and for good reason.

Why not? You do the "sketching/mockup" of most of the flow (without going into too much design detail) in order for the team to understand better what you are going to build. Then, everybody can provide feedback based on their perspective, do a couple of iterations, then prototype (which if done well will be the initial version of the shippable solution) and then iterate again.
Imagine a function z=f(x,y) in 3D space. Now picture a plane at say, x=3, that is parallel to the plane passing through the Y and Z axes. This x=3 plane cuts through our function, and its intersection with the z=f(x,y) function forms a sort of 2D function z=g(x)=f(3,y).

(The Wikipedia page[1] has nice images of this [2])

The slope of this new 2D function on the x=3 plane at some point y is then the partial derivative ∂z/∂y for constant x at the point (3,y). As we are "fixing" the value of x to a constant, by only considering the intersection of our original function with a plane at x=x_0.

Bambu and Fusion360 sure look nice, but if you're on tighter budget, 3D printers became both cheaper and more reliable in general, and FreeCAD recently got to 1.0 and is quite capable.

I worked alongside people using early versions of Makerbot and Ultimaker, and those were a maintenance nightmare. But recently I got a Kobra 2 Pro for $200, and it's both more capable and easier to use than those old monsters. With PLA it's pretty much hassle-free, no need to tweak anything except print orientation and maybe some support options.
There is also https://github.com/mirmik/zencad. Full Python and OpenCASCADE core, so feels less quirky than OpenSCAD.
> China is not my adversary even if the United States government thinks so. I believe many Americans would agree with that.

I (a US citizen) do think of the Chinese government as an adversary. I believe many Americans would agree with me. (See, I can make the same assertion without evidence.)

> To me it seems China made a superior app that the American youth wanted to use and the American social media apparatus was jealous so lobbied to have it banned.

Sure, that's certainly part of it. It's economic protectionism. Which, honestly, when it's protectionism against a nation with a fairly closed market, where US companies and capital have much less access (and access comes with strict restrictions and censorship requirements) than Chinese companies (and their government), I'm having a hard time getting all up in arms about it.
> You fight censorship with openness.

because TikTok is the epitome of openness? Has never censored any opinion?
Because "things" are interconnected. There's not just one definition of Thing, whatever your thing might be. There's your perspective on Thing, and there's other peoples' perspective on Thing. So, whatever it is, Thing is not something that you can understand in solitude.

Understanding it means understanding both your perspective on it, and other peoples' perspective on it, at the same time. That's most peoples' reason for wanting to interact with random people. They see it as an opportunity to refine their understanding of Thing, whatever it might be.
A bit of a tangent, but on your note amount multi-material being wasteful - you can improve that a lot by thinking ahead in your design and being strategic about where you use colour.

Your benchy is almost a worst-case scenario (which is likely intentional) - because the coloured features are vertical, there will be several changes per printed layer. If you can constrain your material changes to layer boundaries you'll get a much better waste ratio.

A good example of this is printing coloured labels/features on a faceplate. So you print the whole faceplate in a single material, then switch material and print the highlight colour as raised features. That gets you a lot of result for a single material change. (On single-material printers there's a method where you strategically pause the print and swap the materials by hand. Learning lessons from that will really hammer home the mindset of optimising tool changes!)

There's a lot of lessons like this you'll pick up, where making your design sympathetic to the print process can have huge payoffs.
But the Swedish government is taking blame for local shutdowns. The previous day her boss (PM) said so. The 4th paragraph reads:

"“I realise that nobody is happy when I say that ‘if we hadn't shut down half of nuclear power, we wouldn't have these problems’. But it's true and it needs to be said.”, Kristersson said, referring to the previous Social Democrat-Greens coalition closing several nuclear reactors between 2019 and 2020 as part of a policy shift towards greater reliance on renewable energy sources."

The Swedish Green coalition before them also did shutdowns like the German greens did. And now they have to suffer the consequences.

Note that a lot of people are very shortsighted and might think "energy prices were better with the previous greens/labour/etc". They need to be reminded the causes of the crisis.

This blame game is all about supporting current political narratives about nuclear power etc. It's not really about the energy crisis.

Sweden's energy mess is all about 'free markets'. Back in the old days the state-run energy companies in Sweden produced an overabundance of electricity, mostly from hydro, making Sweden one of the cheapest electricity countries in the world. It was really common to replace wood burners with direct electric radiators in old houses across Sweden.

Then the British conservative party (equiv to the current Swedish administration who the article is about), heavily into privatisation, started selling the public utilities. One thing they did was split network ownership from supplier, so you have one company owning trains and another owning track, and the same for electric net vs generation etc. This created a kind of artificial market, because you can't actually choose with your feet what company has power lines to your house etc. So they invented energy markets and mock auctions and things.

Of course in hindsight all those privatisation thingies are no longer popular. But at the time the rest of Europe thought 'oh that's a good idea!'

Within Sweden the electricity is generally generated in the north and consumed in the south and the socialist governments with their nationalised utilitieshad a fixed cost in the whole country.

Interestingly it was the Danes who complained because they border the south of Sweden and can't generate electricity nearly so cheaply so the cheap cost of Swedish electricity was 'unfair competition'. In 2011 the Swedes had to scrap their fixed one-price policy and introduce 'energy zones' that get increasingly more expensive as you approach Denmark.

Fast forward to today and we have Sweden producing more energy than it consumes, but the utility companies get more money from selling that abroad than at home, meaning the Swedes have to buy their electricity from abroad! We basically logically from a market perspective have electricty flowing out of Sweden to be sold by the utility companies and then back into Sweden to be consumed by households.

And we wonder why there is another winter fuel price shock warning in the offing!
I'm so tired of arguments like this. They seem ill-informed at best, actively bad-faith at worst.

The US government has faults. A lot of them. And I (a US citizen) can't claim to be perfectly objective and unbiased. But I don't think you're going to be able to convince me that I should prefer Chinese propaganda and election interference over US propaganda. Or that US propaganda is as effective and all-encompassing within US borders as Chinese propaganda is within Chinese borders.
By the sounds of it China has taken up the reins of this activity with a new/modern ship.

The US really seems to be handing over leadership in a lot of fields to China.
Internet != social media. The former is likely a net good, the latter is definitely a net negative.
Most people here just open a window when they want to air out a room. That said, that does waste a lot of energy when heating/cooling your home on cold/hot days, so ERVs and HRVs are used to get the clean air in without exchanging heat with the outside world too much. They're quite cheap and effective compared to just running normal ventilation.
Have you tried the i3 tiling window manager? If you're comfortable on the command line, you may enjoy the keyboard-forward focus of i3.

> the best thing my school ever did for me was give me a paper planner and teach me how to use it

A sentiment I’ve heard a lot is “how will kids learn the value of money in a cashless society”. The answer, like with the paper planner is “unfortunately the world has changed”. Using a paper calendar or cash isn’t obsolete, but the real trick is learning to schedule/work with money. And in the modern day, you _must_ be able to do this digitally. All my biggest incomes and expenses are digital transactions - my salary, mortgage, insurance, energy bills. Learning to manage cash flow means understanding it in that context.

Scheduling is the same now. If you operate solely on a paper planner in thr modern world you’re going to miss out. My workplace is entirely digital, my golf course, gym, even my barber use digital calendars. I’m not saying a proprietary app is the right move, but a paper scheduler is unfortunately bordering on obsolete.

i originally wanted to comment on this to disagree with you. then i sat and read your comment in full and realised i agree with you.

with a weird caveat …

if you don’t have an audience who is willing to read what you’ve edited, editing can be a partially pointless excercise.

last shop i was in i’d edit this stuff to glorious beauty. no-one else would ever read it. i tried presentations instead. didn’t help. i tried live sharing the doc in a meeting, no one cared.

but editing a design doc (or a big PR description or whatever) is always helpful for me as it is a process where i’m editing the problem/solution description without having to move code around.

i’ve done a few good refactors off the back of editing some text/diagrams.

lesson i learned: edit design stuff as if someone else will read it, but do the editing for myself (to learn something or clarify something about the problem/solution).
Not thrilled by the definition, but still think a more general ban is better than trying to ban specific features, but I would probably just ban account creation for U16 - seems like the "cleanest" solution.

I think it will also bring major positive side effects to the web - social media sites will be forced to open up their walled gardens and smaller sites might thrive again.
I started in crypto just three years ago, and while it's a bit more alternative, overall it's just business.

Sure, I get paid in all kinds of tokens, and it's nice to see some coins rise after I get paid, which makes freelancer work feel a tiiiiiny bit more like being and employee with stock.

But it's just a job like any other. I write articles, I write code, I talk with clients, investors, users... And at the end of the day I get paid.

> De facto id will be a massive step backwards, if they move forward despite saying they most likely wouldn't

Ah, yes, I too trust government to keep their words. Pinky promises and all that.

> but not as far backwards as raising a generation on reactionary and divisive social media

This is your opinion. You use of "reactionary" in this context implies that whatever views are being shared, you are against them. Instead of winning over people, you prefer the easy solution which is to silence them.

That is not very democratic of you.

Finally if you think that the "division" that most western societies are experiencing currently is only due to social media, then you haven't bothered researching theses topics.

These problems that are coming to light now have been a long time in the making. In reality decades, but before the governing powers could simply pretend that they did not exist whereas now, it is plain sight.

Silencing opposing voices is not moral and it is delusional to think that this will fix the broken state of western democracies just like sweeping the dust under the carpet doesn't mean that your apartment is clean.
