That's definitely the core point. To this guys credit, he figured out that in the 2020's you don't need to be technically correct to sell solutions; you just need to liter your documentation with emojis and horse shit to win people over.

I just want to make sure in this case, I'm not missing out on some super special sauce or advantage that celery provides. Consuming a queue seems trivial that I am worried I am missing something.
It looks to me like Zach's video is the thing that actually fixed it. Good work Zach!
It's all in the details, not really as simple as the napkin math. The CO2 capture step obviously doesn't use ALL the energy released from burning the fuel. You're not converting the CO2 back into fuel, just capturing it and sequestering it somehow. It's a question of capital and operating expense (and risks) of the process overall.
This is a really neat idea. Make sure you are around when reddit implements PPV and dies.
> because the incentive to build more capacity is very low,

The incentive for new gas generation is the same as for new solar generation: selling electricity profitably on the grid. If you are saying that new gas generation has trouble competing with batteries and solar, I would agree.

I would go further and say that new solar and batteries are cheaper than merely the fuel and operating costs of many existing fossil fuel plants. Especially coal. And a lot of gas too, particularly the peaker plants that burn for short amounts of time to capture price spikes on the market.

> Very reliable inertial generators (turbines) smooth over the unstable electrical from wind turbines or solar.

There's two very different concepts here: inertial generators for frequency regulation and supplying reactive power, which solar does not generate natively, but is now with grid-forming inverters. Also, batteries have been serving frequency regulation for more than a decade, starting in the PJM market. The need for inertial generation has been replaced even with very old and expensive battery technology.

The second concept of "reliable" is dispatchable power: can you put power on the grid when it's needed? Batteries also solve this, and are being deployed, profitably, in Texas, as opposed to new gas generation.

> As far as battery capacity goes, that's also sketchy because ERCOT is allowing dangerous risky lithium packs to be installed in a tightly packed together industrial space optimized way that could result in disaster when one unit catches fire, spreading to the whole site.

That's a fairly minor implementation detail, and the installers are taking on all that risk on their own, as they will lose everything if there's a fire that spreads.

A battery going up in smoke is still far better than the amounts of natural gas that get burned in its place.

> Better would be magnetically suspended flywheels in a hard vacuum buried under ground. These are more ecological and have the same baseband quality as a turbine constant spin generator, and require very little energy to up-keep. I would say a hybrid way of having these flywheels in large numbers with on-site lithium batteries to provide site power, and line-leveling as the relays switch over to the flywheels, similar to how batteries in a data center last just long enough to let the diesel gen spin up...

Flywheels are a completely impractical technology that doesn't scale and is far too expensive. Especially in vacuum underground.

Inverters are a far better solution than fly-wheels: cheaper, more battle-tested, actually deployed in practice instead of just in the lab, and widespread.
Regenerative braking has much less tire wear than traditional braking because it's done much more slowly and smoothly.

Absent any evidence, I don't believe that claim. Unless you're skidding, I don't see how braking slowly and smoothly over a longer period causes any less tire wear than braking more rapidly for a shorter time.

Additionally, since this is intrinsically tied to EVs, they weigh more and thus increase tire wear in all conditions.

I reckon that the different driving styles could be partially dealt with by considering different classes of car. E
G. Fast "prestige" cars will tend to share certain driving styles and be quite different to cheaper run-arounds.

Ideally, it'd be great if insurance companies made a big push to get some kind of standardised "black box" that drivers could fit. As well as providing extra stats, I think they'd be great for detecting illnesses. A simple driving ability stat could be produced from the typical acceleration/braking timings - smoother is better as it shows good anticipation by the driver. If their stat starts decreasing more than expected due to aging etc. then the driver could be alerted that they should consult a doctor as it could cognitive decline, eye problems etc.

My point is cars don’t necessarily deserve the deference society affords them, they’re utility vehicles, needed by fewer people than we think (but still needed). The paths we reserve for car use should be diminished.

If every person was driving an articulated truck then there would be more deaths, caused not just by collisions and poor driving but by emissions too. We’d need bigger roads too- its unnecessary for everyone to do this.

We have scientific studies that also state that having plastic in your blood steam and organs, is okay. So unless we focus research on how plastics are affecting us, just studies saying we found plastic in xyz aren’t going to get us anywhere beyond “we should probably do more research on this”.

I'm surprised the author is so upset about the specialisation of players. Soccer has that in spades and it's endlessly fascinating because of it.
As others have said, you can use M600 or a pause (depending on your printer) and swap filaments. The design specifically supports both use-cases, it can easily switch from all colors on a single height level to all colors having their own height levels.
The point I was after to make is that you can't assume that road wear scales the same way as tyre wear (I was assuming same material fwiw, just different loads). They are being worn under very different modes/scenarios.
You know what you can also play Switch 1 games on? The Switch 1 that you already own.
The difference also comes from the grippier tires on the Model 3, the total tread volume on those tires compared to a smaller car, and that the Model 3 compared to the average car isn't apples to apples if you're looking at tire wear for ICE vs EV (to be fair, my car's too light to be apples to apples either, but if you look at comparably sized cars the Model 3 is heavier).

Pipelining is probably required, and there is no one magic solution here.

It took solar 45 years to become low cost, and carbon capture will probably be just as difficult. If we did things one step at a time, carbon capture wouldn't be economical until ~2080, which is too late.
One can argue that this is implicit in FOSS licenses, including the GPL. If the author can be held liable for any defects, then they can't really share their contributions, and FOSS contributions would only be possible by entities with well-paid lawyers. This is against the spirit of both Open Source and Free Software.

Furthermore, similar clauses have existed for patents. E.g., if you use an Apache licensed library, but sue one of the contributors for patent infringement having to do with the library in question, then any grants of the Apache license terminate, so you can then be countersued. The way you framed your text, this would qualify as an interference with Freedom 0, as you can't eat your cake and have it too.

Lest we forget, here's what the MIT license, one of the most permissive ones, have to say:

"THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED “AS IS”, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AUTHORS OR COPYRIGHT HOLDERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, DAMAGES OR OTHER LIABILITY, WHETHER IN AN ACTION OF CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, ARISING FROM, OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SOFTWARE OR THE USE OR OTHER DEALINGS IN THE SOFTWARE."

So the MIT license already says what you think is against Freedom 0.
My biggest fear is that Republican political correctness will come to over-regulate and stop the deployment of clean energy. You can already see it at the national level. Texas will have to decide if they like money and the free market more than being politically correct.

You can already see this conflict in all the areas where the new factories have been built from Biden's IRA. These factories generally raise wages quite a bit, invigorate communities that feel like they have been forgotten, but that it's clean energy doing the good is kept on the down-low. To mix metaphors: don't poke the bear, lest the bear cuts off its nose to spite its face.
Yes? A world with no private ownership and no maximization of profits is still going to find that the functional properties of plastics make one of them the best material for a wide variety of use cases. If you need something lightweight, sturdy, and either transparent or easily moldable, there's really no other option.

The big solar farms are really amazing in scale. The blue shimmer of the panels look just like water from far away and they’re so big it literally looks like a lake in the distance. There’s a few just outside the Permian basin like this that I’ve seen. It’s funny that they’re right near the big fracking operations but I guess that’s because of logistics, land availability, and grid access.

Edit: I want one so bad, something cool about being a farmer but farming photons instead of plants and animals.
There is lot of other perceived value in organic. It is seen as more healthy so it works as placebo. And then some can't ever put enough value on being able to feel smug and superior towards poorer people and less well educated.

No amount of infrastructure will make these electric motorcycles safe in bike lanes or pedestrian paths. They should be banned.
I read something about Go - that very unusual (maybe even considered bad) playing could beat the super-AIs. They are so tuned to opponents in a "typical" style, that they don't know how to beat a player outside this distribution.

Maybe an NBA team will come up with something like that.
If we had a crystal ball that would tell us which piece of fundamental research will pan out, that would be great. But we don't. So we fund research with the understanding that a very high percentage of it will not directly lead us anywhere. Yes, maybe it's bullshit, but we'd learn why, rather than taking someone's word for it. The alternative is to fund no research, and guarantee we get nowhere.
I personally think the 3-point line needs to be uniform distance. It is 22 feet from the corner compared to ~24ish feet from the center.
It's cheaper and more profitable to make thing out of plastic rather than something more durable/sustainable, and companies lobby against strong environmental regulations so they don't need to care about improving.
AP is a major source for breaking news. Forcing journalists to only go with the executive branch’s narrative or else face being banned is not a sign of free press.

Additionally, saying it’s harmless trolling is not what I think any sane person wants their government to be in the business of doing. These people are supposed to be adults, why are they acting like immature children?
This isn't difficult to do, once you have debugging capabilities exposed to the llm in vs code. You just need the proper launch.json and to expose "step back".
The translation above is really bad. It was probably supposed to be "shaping the narrative", not "shaking". In my opinion, this translation is much closer to the original:

"We had been contemplating leaving X for quite some time. We observed the growing presence of fake, troll accounts that increasingly steer the narrative on this platform. We saw that X not only fails to combat but actually promotes hateful and disinformation-driven posts."
What is it based on then?

They rust away either way. They need to be occasionally applied so that when you use them, it doesn’t take half a block to grind the rust off.

The same problem occurs if you let an ICE car sit unused for a while.
Basketball rules will change. It's becoming a more widespread view that the corner 3 should be eliminated, and perhaps the 3 line moved back in general. In the meantime, threat of 3s makes proactive defense more necessary and that's exciting to watch. Defense has evolved so much since the Jordan era. Some matches are not exciting right now, though.

I would imagine it's just tire formulation choices. Tractor trailers get extremely high mileage from their tires, but there is lots more weight on each tire. And train wheels... what is the load and mileage on those?

The concerning thing about this is in Conservative circles, now it’s essentially a “fact” that Social Security has been paying 150 year olds, and they use it to justify DOGE’s existence. They are incentivized to lie.

Has Musk made a public retraction on this? We know a lie spreads faster than the truth, and given how loudly he crowed about finding 150 year olds, he should be at least as loud correcting himself.

Replacing cars with bikes/scooters is unrealistic and unreasonable. You're either ignoring or unaware of the actual dependence on cars that exists and that cannot be dismissed.
> Recently, teams have realized three-pointers have higher point value despite their lower scoring percentage.

This was such an eye-opener for me. A high-stakes sport like basketball/the NBA went on for decades without realising the simple math that three pointers are more valuable than two-pointers if you just do the basic math. How many areas in our lives are yet to be optimised with really basic math?
That's not fair. The summary is useful to decide if I actually want to watch the video or not. It's a useful filter. My time budget for watching videos is finite.
It supports both with a single toggle, either you use MMU/AMS in which case it's all on the same level, or you don't use it and all colors have a different height level making it easy to just M600/pause your print and change the color.

Even if true this has nothing to do with the value of the sport to the spectator or the competitor. Seeing world-class athletes push themselves to their physical limits is intrinsically exciting even if everyone is on the same page on how to win.

Those sorts of argumets are definitely made at the fringes, but they definitely are not the voices of policymakers, and rarely if ever make it into final policy, fortunately.

“Overall, the excess death rate for Republican voters was 2.8 percentage points, or 15%, higher than the excess death rate for Democratic voters (95% prediction interval [PI], 1.6-3.7 percentage points). After May 1, 2021, when vaccines were available to all adults, the excess death rate gap between Republican and Democratic voters widened from −0.9 percentage point (95% PI, −2.5 to 0.3 percentage points) to 7.7 percentage points (95% PI, 6.0-9.3 percentage points) in the adjusted analysis; the excess death rate among Republican voters was 43% higher than the excess death rate among Democratic voters. The gap in excess death rates between Republican and Democratic voters was larger in counties with lower vaccination rates and was primarily noted in voters residing in Ohio [1].

This article is flat out wrong. The study they cite does not state the things the article says it states. And the study they cite certainly does not compare the harm from brakes to the harm from exhaust.

The study simply says that brake dust can cause asthma and hay fever in children. There is no comparison made to the harm from exhaust.

Exhaust is certainly more harmful than brakedust in the quantities one may encounter in the real world. Exhaust contains many chemicals that are actual poisons. Iron is not poisonous and copper can only be poisonous in large amounts. It is true that they can cause sensitivity and autoimmune diseases in the lungs especially in children, but this is much more remote harm than the actual poison in exhaust.

Nobody kills themselves by sniffing brakes but many people have done it by closing themselves in a garage with a running car engine. (They say that is harder now with catalytic converters but it still happens).
Interesting to see this pop up on HN because this topic has dominated some sports circles over the last year- the NBA has become unwatchable for some, as teams like last year’s champion, the Boston Celtics, just throw up three’s constantly, regardless if they feel confident that they’ll go in.
