Also, with renewable energy sources, the problem is not manufacturing energy per se but getting the energy where and when you want.

For example, you could run a gas turbine in Germany in winter at night during a spike of the consumption and run carbon capture on a desert during the day

In a sense you use atmosphere as battery/transportation system.

I am not saying that this must make sense but this is far more complex than napkin math.
Cancer rates are increasing in younger people in many types of cancer, likely due to increasing pollution. Some types of cancer are being seen in increasing numbers due to more people living longer.
Sounds like Muntzing, but to organizations. Remove parts until it breaks, then put parts back in until it works again.

Good for electronics or software, maybe not so good with people since you'll piss people off and eventually find that you can't just put them back.
This is a fairly ignorant take on the situation and unironically it’s the same comment I’ve been hearing news anchors constantly make.
Something like Plex/Jellyfin will make it simpler to share your library to your friends or family (over e.g. Tailscale).

The whole *arr thing makes it even better with automated download and upgrade.
What do you mean group series together? If you mean seasons of a show, yes it does. If you mean collections, it has them.

I don’t think they’re quite as bad as soda, but I do think they’re fairly close. I think this video is what first convinced me (been a long time since I watched, sorry if I’m wrong about small details): https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=hzyFZcuHmeI&pp=ygUWSGVhbHRoY2F...
I tried jellyfin after my most recent nas upgrade (pi5 w/ external drives). It seemed _really_ nice, but it also worked extremely badly for my specific use case. It seems to want a specific folder structure for all of your media, and its layout conflicted badly with my existing conventions. My partner has our media collection obsessively organized by country, then by genre. Jellyfin made some kind of attempt at categorizing this, and just ended up showing us tons of previews for things we did NOT have (eg, our British folder was interpreted as us having The Great British Baking Show, which we do NOT have). It seems like every media solution wants to ignore your folder structure and present some fake hierarchy, which really doesn't work at all for me.

We ended up buying an apple tv and installing the vlc app which connects via smb and is happy to show us the original folder structure.

EU countries cannot price their goods more competitively. EU businesses aren't charged VAT by the EU on goods they export because consumers pay VAT. But when they export goods to another country, tax is still paid. It is just paid by the consumer in that country, including the US.

For example, if an EU business exports to NZ then they have to remit 15% GST on the goods to the NZ tax authorities. The same is true of Australia or the US or any other destination with sales tax.

The US has relatively low sales taxes, so its consumers have an advantage when importing over consumers in other countries. That is a good thing for US consumers: they pay less for goods. It has nothing to do with US exporters.

The US doesn't refund VAT to exporters because there is nothing to refund: they don't pay VAT on their inputs. The refund is fiscally neutral for businesses. The EU exporters that get VAT refunds aren't netting anything. They are just getting back tax they paid but never owed. US exporters don't pay any sales taxes on their inputs so they don't need refunds: they kept their money in the first place.

EU countries also pay income tax. In no possible sense are EU companies advantaged by the EU being a generally higher-tax place than the US. The opposite is true: if VAT were lower, they would be more competitive domestically and would have be better resourced to invest in their processes and become more efficient and competitive.
Well this is very timely and relevant. I usually access jellyfin on my network devices like `http://homecloud:8096` but now that I have been exploring adding other services, remembering the ports is getting tedious. I also am trying to be forward thinking about external access in the future.

Looks like I could use some combination of Caddy, Nginx Proxy Manager, Tailscale? What's the simplest setup?
Cloudflare Tunnel only works if you access it via a web browser right?

I'd prefer using Tailscale so that I can also access it in their native apps on Android and Android TV.
I tried using this to create a fifty state table of local laws and policies and tax rates and legal obstacles for my pet interest (land value tax) I gave it the same prompts I gave OpenAI DR. Perplexity gave equally good results, and unlike OpenAI didn’t bungle the CSV downloads. Recommended!
To anyone considering using Jellyfin - it simply does not work properly for large libraries (1000+ movies/shows) in my experience.
Lot's of criticism on here, but I love Jellyfin.

I came from Plex a few years ago after their login server had an outage and I was unable to access the media that was on my local computer. Before that I'd been annoyed by them pushing TV shows and since then I've heard about them giving reports on what people have watched. All in all I'm happy.

My setup is Jellyfin in a docker container running on a debian machine with an i7-1165G7. It's got a mounted NFS link to my Synology NAS with all the files. The main client I used is Android TV running on an NVIDIA shield.

All in all, it's been great. I've got a few nitpicks---loading on ios app isn't as fast as I like if I try to jump to the middle of a movie---but all in all it's great for just watching movies, tv shows, videos, &c. All without any link to the outside world. It's lovely.

They also are producing new features at a nice clip and have a strong community. I expect it to keep getting better and better, but honestly even if it never changed I'd happily use it for years.

Financing Infrastructure with Value Capture: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
When I was a student (and poor), the average VAT I paid on products was less than 5% (I only paid for food and had student prices for transportation and musical school, so no Vat on that). Healthcare was also 0%. So it really depends on your situation.
Bemused by the number of people complaining about a free and open source project. A quick review of the git history tells me that it’s maintained by a very small group of people who generously work on this in their free time. Luckily jellyfin does accept PRs, so if you think the project needs improvements, then perhaps folks, you can do something about it
Thank you for your work and also sharing the status here. There is a bugzilla link to follow the progress of the fix?
That's only what it looked like in the early 90s. Evidence, facts and current events state otherwise.
> empty fields all around Austin

True but also doesn't explain the Austin housing market. Austin added more new apartments just east of downtown in 5 years than San Francisco built in the entire 1990s. The differences between pro-housing and deeply anti-housing local attitudes do not come down to geography.
What are people using this for? Pirated movies, shows, etc?

My first (broad) contact with something like that was in the early 2000 with a certain operating system, which decided it needs to check an ID online before allowing me to use it.
Yes, I did read the article. If you feel so confident about your predictions and are so sure of the author’s claims, why not put a bet down on that.

While you’re at it, do it for “another 5” and let me know how you get on.
If a company did that to me there's zero chance I would go back to them, because it makes it obvious management has no idea what they're doing and the company is probably doomed in the medium term.
you would be ignoring the most profitable clients of the decade.
You might as well argue that it’s the US tax system that puts the US at a disadvantage regarding exports. Similarly, the relative lack of worker rights in the US could be argued to put US producers at an advantage. This is economies competing against each other, but the VAT is applied equally to EU and foreign producers, so it seems really odd to blame the very factor that is actually neutral here.

The scarry part is before using ChatGPT they couldn't figure it out, so they're either getting more information or are ending with the same results but just feel better about it, whithout still having figured it out.

It sounds innocent enough, but your parallel to psychotherapy is I think very spot on. You need trust in your therapist and they also do their best to be non directive and let you explore your own state. When you tell your therapist you have self-harm thought, it makes a world of difference when they ask what happened vs what tools do you think you need.

To me, my train of thought is the last part I want involvement from a third party I have no trust in.
At this point, I think the only practical way to get rid of him will be to publicly embarrass Trump about 'President Elon' enough that Trump can't take it anymore.
Plex uses cloud-based authentication, which means Plex Inc. is holding the keys to your library. I switched to JellyFin because I was not comfortable with that arrangement.
There is a structural disadvantage. You are correct that both the US and EU do not pay VAT when exporting. EU countries get full VAT rebate when exporting. But, the US primarily taxes businesses via corporate income tax (~21% federally, plus state taxes). EU follows a VAT system which is refunded on export. Corporations don’t get refunds on exports of their own countries prescribed tax. EU companies can structure their pricing differently since it is leaving the EU without a tax burden. EU exports tax free.

On your other questions, I think you are missing the bigger picture. The part you are missing is that EU exporters get a tax refund. The rebate the US is missing is an equivalent tax relief system. VAT-based economies remove tax burdens for exporters and keep them for importers.

To be clear, the EU is not “cheating”. Trump just sees the entire system resulting in a trade imbalance and the only mechanism he has right now is tariffs without overhauling the entire US tax code or some other similar relief system. There are other options that could be implemented like this and the one chosen was the tariff.
There's really nothing surprising about this - I remember similar articles at the start of the first Trump administration about how one of the nuclear weapon departments (might have been the same one) had its top people retiring, and multiple Republican senators had to make noise before Trump got around to appointing a replacement. In the same vein, Rick Perry ran on the idea of getting rid of the Department of Energy during the campaign and was picked by Trump to be its secretary. It was explained to Perry at some point that the DOE is not, in fact, just about energy; that someone has to manage, manufacture, design and test the nuclear weapons we have; and that the national labs might be fairly important components of our scientific and technological advantages as a nation. I don't expect any better this time around.
I expose my jellyfin to 80 via nginx. Other services stay not exposed, and only available on my local network. I don't bother with tailscale.
Can you explain why did you create Italian VAT ID instead of using your company's existing home country VAT ID for invoicing?
I found another, possibly simpler solution.

The functions (sh-fd-stdin) (sh-fd-stdout) and (sh-fd-stderr) return the integer file descriptors that a schemesh builtin should use to perform I/O.

With them, you can do

true (lambda () (lisp-expr-writes-to-fd (sh-fd-stdout))) | grep foo | true (lambda () (lisp-expr-reads-from-fd (sh-fd-stdin)))

It should work :)
As an example, my power is generated by one company and distributed by PG&E. I pay $57 for power generation and $140 or so for distribution. PG&E reported close to [1] $2.5B profits for last year. My bills have been going up for $50/month to over $400/month in the last four years.

> A US company selling to the EU still has to factor in US corporate taxes in its pricing

A EU company selling to the EU also has to factor in their local corporate taxes. There's no structural difference there. (There are EU countries where corporate taxes are higher than the US and ones where they're lower).

> and does not get a VAT rebate.

They only get no VAT rebate because they paid no VAT. There is no structural advantage or disadvantage here: neither the EU or US producer paid any net VAT.

> Given those facts, Trump views VAT as a hidden tariff that puts the US at a disadvantage.

Given that those "facts" are demonstrably untrue, would you agree that the "hidden tariff" narrative is actually untrue?
Do you think there will be a presidential election in ~3.75 years time?

> My wife used to draft simple business contracts by mixing and matching content she found in the public domain. Now, she uses AI—better quality, less time spent.

That part sounded way worse to me. In the end she may be fully understandind the contracts and ramifications and it doesn't matter where the bits and parts came from...but that really doesn't sound like it, and we're talking legal documents.
I am arguing that the US tax system puts them at a disadvantage and the option that Trump has available to him without Congress fixing the perceived trade imbalance is executive action through tariff.
Yeah unfortunately EU countries have adopted complicated VAT systems in the sense that they have different rates on different categories of goods and services.

New Zealand has a much more sensible system: other than a few categories of services that are zero-rated (like land) for GST (what NZ calls VAT) everything is charged at a flat rate of 15%. It eliminates all the bullshit like decade long court proceedings about whether something is a cake or a biscuit, or silly social media campaigns about whether tampons are "luxury goods". It is all taxed at 15%.

That being said, the system is not more complex in the EU really, just more annoying.
For movies and TV shows people either rip them off of personal collections and/or download them from the internet.

When combined with `yt-dlp` you can use it to download videos from your favorite channels. This is especially valuable as there's no guarantee the videos will be there for free forever.

It's also a nice place to put family videos and recorded sporting events.
Not nearly the same thing but this reminds me of the Playstation game, Ape Escape. Real classic.
It's missing one critical point: if AI makes a good developer 10% more productive, the industry needs 10% less developers to achieve the same output.

You're not getting replaced by AI. You're getting replaced by a coworker using AI. It doesn't matter how poorly AI performs at any remotely complicated task, what matters is how many developer-hours it saves by not having to manually write as much boilerplate.
I love how this ended about the color coding of food and not the valid points about code quality being a byproduct of mental status.

" that sort of experience en masse can have huge decades-long impacts in a complex system like the US Federal government."

I am totally convinced Trump will be the most impactful president since a long time. All the stuff they are doing now will take a very long time to rebuild, if ever (it's their hope that it can't be rebuilt).

In principle I think it would be very good to look at government functions and their efficiency. But you can't just walk around "don't know what this does. doesn't benefit me. Therefore delete". This may work in a corporation where the worst that can happen is that it goes bankrupt. You really don't want the whole country to break down.
AI isn't taking American jobs. Foreign developer agencies utilizing AI and being paid a fraction of what American employees are being paid are taking American jobs.
Being free does not exempt a project from criticism. It's not like they were yelling about how terrible the project team was, just saying the issues they were having when trying to use it.
You two are right. It's about been net zero additional anthropic warming, because, as you said there is some emission we can't cut.

Zero additional anthropic warming result in progressive global decarbonizing thanks to carbon sink. (If the carbon sinks still exist when we reach 0 net emission and the permafrost hasn't thawed yet)
How hard would it be for either of tesla or spacex to unwind, or even just reduce his influence? Does it demand others (middle eastern banking) people to yank on a leash like the Twitter debt, or are the corporate structures able to do this purely from governance obligation perspectives?
I said it elsewhere, but this was the turning point for me as well.
im running a pihole so i take advantage of lighttpd that it uses, with the mod_proxy configuration. i can then do something like the following to have a friendly url on my local network

$HTTP["host"] == "jellyfin.dc" {
proxy.server = ( "" => ( (
"host" => "192.168.1.99",
"port" => "8096"
) ) )
}
If you run a DNS server on your Tailscale or use their Magic DNS you can navigate to http://jellyfin and it'll load.

Personally I don't muck about with any of that and just have a link in my bookmarks bar that takes me to http://<tailscaleip>:port :D
Every once in a while I knock around the idea of migrating off Plex and onto Jellyfin. For a long time it was that sharing libraries with friends was a pain, but now literally the only thing stopping me is that they don't have a ps5 app, and that's how one of my friends uses my plex server lol. If they get one, it's all over for plex (in my friend group).
>If the price to the consumer is higher, the economic effect is the same.

Higher than what?
> the industry needs 10% less developers to achieve the same output

Maybe. Or maybe the industry will simply churn even more software due to increased possibilities and everything stays the same.
So far more efficient development tools have resulted in more tech companies / products being created, resulting in a increase in net total developers needed. The idea that 10% more efficient devs would mean less devs needed assumes that we're living on a flat line of productivity and invention, which is simply not true.
It's going to look similar to the trend of off-shoring developer jobs to the lowest bidder over seas. I made my career cleaning up the webs of technical debt that many companies accrued.

LLM code assistants in the hands of a skilled developer are a productivity multiplier. In the hands of a novice, they bloom technical debt like cancer. Expect rapid cost cutting, followed in about a year or two my panicked recruiting of expensive contractors to fix the unmaintainable mess, making the whole endeavor a loss (which looked good enough on the books for enough time to earn raises and bonuses for managers).
Yeah this wasn’t even interesting when I read about it a week ago

Hacker “Olds” amirite
This is missing one critical fact. The economy and the web are not zero sum games or pies such that if one person has a piece another cannot have it.

Economies can grow and the output of economies can grow and thus the number of jobs can grow
I still find the skepticism around TDD weird. Except for a few pretty niche scenarios (e.g. it's experimental code or manual testing is cheaper for some obscure reason) i dont really see the point of not doing it.

I especially dont see what is gained by writing the test after.
I use Jellyfin for my 32TB media library of 1600 movies, 70 TV shows (5500 episodes), 500 music albums, and 10,000 books. It works perfectly fine with no issues or slowdowns.
You just don't understand how VAT works, and you are not interested in understanding how VAT works, so... You're just wrong, and no amount of babysitting your bruised ego is going to change that.
AI creates bloated, sometimes nonsensical output that often straight-up doesn't work.

It's perfect for replacing web developers.

It can make mobile apps, too.
> we certainly need to update/devise methods that do not harm anyone living creatures (or at least the sentient ones)

Nature is brutal. I distinctly remember a hike where I stumbled on a mother bear (RIP) tearing apart a still-alive baby elk for her cubs. Human civilisation has done a lot of damage. But we might also be able to spare a lot of sentient suffering, bringing care to the biosphere and taking station as nature’s ethical guardians. Food for thought if you find yourself going full misanthrope.
Yeah so basically the Marvell Libertas 88W8380 supports 802.11i (also known as WPA2) out of the box: https://uofw.github.io/upspd/docs/hardware/Libertas_WLAN_cli...

The module patches the PSP kernel WPA module to make it use the native WPA2 capability of the chip/firmware instead of WPA.
