> Does this include thermals on batteries?

Yes, not just batteries, but we collect cell level temperature for all cells in all batteries.

> And how much power is spent on keeping them at the optimals?

We run an AC unit on every container to keep them cool. (Its in the NV desert so never any need for a heater)

> What about SoC/SoD figures?

We do compute estimates of SoC but as you probably know charge state isn't always easy to estimate. All we really know is voltage, c rate and time.

> I can sort of name ballpark figures for the above, the thing I can't get is how this can even approach profitable w/o hype and subsidies.

There is certainly risk involved with any investment. But when you are buying batteries at the scale we do the price is probably much lower than you are thinking. And if we do properly gather all the warranty data then the risk of loss on battery failure is minimized.

> zero represents an absence of quantity and doesn't appear in Nature

From one point of view, zero never appearing in nature is exactly an example of it appearing in nature!

From another point of view, do you not think a prairie dog has ever asked another prairie dog, "how many foxes are out there now?" with the other looking and replying "None! All clear!"? Crows can count to at least 5, and will count down until there are zero humans in a silo before returning to it. Zero influences animal behavior!

From a third point of view, humans are natural, so everything we do appears in nature.

From a fourth point of view, all models are wrong, but some models are useful. Is it more useful to put zero in the natural numbers or not? That is: if we exclude zero from the natural numbers, do we just force 90% of occurrences of the term to be "non-negative integers" instead?
What else are we to base opinions on? There is no available data. It doesn't exist. The "data" you're referring to is tripe.

To repeat the point you're replying to - a UBI study that examines human behavior from a set of people who are only guaranteed to be given some livable amount of income for a short period, and not for their entire lives, is completely useless. It isn't actually studying UBI. It's studying "what do people do if I give them $20k or so over a few installments?".

Very boring thing to study. Honestly a waste of time and resources to even bother conducting such a study, the results can be put directly in the rubbish bin.
I think you and plenty of other people on this thread are missing the point. As I understand it, it's not "round up people with certain conditions and stick them in camps" (is this not obvious?)

It's to provide people a path for getting off of all manner of drugs that are difficult to get off of. That could be heroin, or it could be Ritalin or some SSRI. It's basically socialized rehab based on some model that RFK seems to favor.

From what I've read (and seen in friends and family), the system is really good at getting people on pharmaceuticals. It doesn't seem to give much of a shit about helping them get off when they choose to do so.

I'm not sure why, but there seems to be a focus on misuse or abuse. Someone could have used the drugs exactly as directed and now doesn't want to use them anymore, and is running into an inability to do so on their own.

3.7 Claude has gotten markedly worse - if I'm even slightly abrupt, it begins hurling out fix after fix, sometimes regenerating its answer a dozen times.
On the other hand, if you receive an unconstrained array argument (such as S : String, which is an array (Positive range <>) of Character underneath), you are expected to access its elements like this:

S (S'First), S (S'First + 1), S (S'First + 2), …, S (S'Last)

If you write S (1) etc. instead, the code is less general and will only work for subarrays that start at the first element of the underlying array.

So effectively, indexing is zero-based for most code.
> On the other hand, I think it is not reasonable to expect people to tell all their friends about all the goods and services that are available.

I don't expect such a thing at all, but it's pretty natural for people to tell their friends when they're delighted (or dismayed) by things they use, or to talk about them if I ask them "hey, how to you do X?" They're not going to tell everyone about everything -- and people who do would become as annoying as ads are.

> Our vision is for AI to autonomously do all the work and provide every sector of goods and services.

I don't share that vision with you, that sounds horrible to me. But it's orthogonal to the question of advertising.

> So how do you give a choice about whether you want resources directed at a larger TV or a faster and larger GPU for gaming, without consuming and potentially responding to advertising on these subjects?

There are numerous ways. I'm of the opinion that advertising (at least, if what we mean by "advertising" is marketing messages from the manufacturers or sellers) is the worst option. It's always going to be heavily biased and incomplete, and is very likely to be manipulative.

> This would remove all market feedback.

Market feedback comes from what sells and how much, as well as direct feedback from customers, not from advertising.

> Clearly, an informed consumer and an informed voter are both necessary for the functioning of a market economy and democratic government, and we need a mechanism to disseminate information about the available choices.

I agree. Where we disagree is about whether or not advertising has a useful role in this. I think it does not. Advertising is, in my view, adversarial to that goal.

Honestly, this is a great debating question.

The point that you keep missing though is that I'm not describing my ideal state of the world. I'm describing the current state of the world.

Nukes are the only existential guarantee a state can have nowadays. The leaders of Iran would like their state to continue existing, and have set their strategy accordingly. After Russia invaded Ukraine, and Trump threatened Canada, other nations will be revisiting the calculus around nukes in the years to come.

This is much worse than the world order we had, but there you have it.
China replaced a one-child policy with a two-child policy in 2015, which was replaced by a three-child policy in 2021. So, far from getting rid of rules for how many children you can have a long time ago, they relaxed rules for how many children you can have a short while ago. Also, China isn't rural Alaska, it is a centralized authoritarian surveillance state and not the kind of place one can go off the grid and raise a family. Not that a non-vanishingly-small number of people is doing that anywhere, other than by happenstance in the poorest countries where "off the grid" is the default.
But now you get the fruits as well, and only have to work one job. The perceived insult will feel lessened, would be even more without one side constantly telling you to feel aggrieved over it.
I didn’t mean this substation existing. I know that’s obviously not a secret. The fact taking it out takes out the entire main airport for at least an entire day is a different matter. Do you really think they’d have been fine with you announcing that to the world yesterday?

Don’t forget the BT Tower existing was technically classified under the official secrets act, even though it was extremely obviously there for everyone to see including on maps.
Norway is not a member of the EU. Yes, precedent can be used with different meanings, and many clueless ministries of justices in continental law countries tried to innovate by calling some measures they made as turning that country into partly based on precedents (usually to restrict the freedom of judges, like in Hungary - which clearly failed).
But more importantly, there is a world of difference between precedents 1) having in practice some relevant legal effect in a jurisdiction (e.g. using them as arguments or just as interesting case law) or 2) in the sense that lower courts are bound by some decisions of upper courts in a country, and 3) having a worldwide legal system built around stare decisis that is actually working the same way for hundreds of year, and where decisions from, say London, are read by lawyers in NZ or Singapore because they may have as much legal force as an act of a parliament. It's not just a spectrum, it's a very different beast for practical purposes.

Is VD actually better than USB link? If that's the case, I might look into buying it. I thought that the post reaffirmed this, but I may be wrong.

I was under the impression that the inconvenience of using a USB cable is compensated by the higher throughput/lower latency of using a direct cable connection vs. a theoretically more limited wireless connection. Does VD simply have a better compression algorithm than Link, or can it actually push through more data?
Given the CPU load I've witnessed on VNC servers, I don't think "low overhead" is right these days.

VNC was designed for remote desktop use. All the other streaming features came along later. I don't see why RDP would make for a worse choice here, other than that Windows VM integration would make for an better solution.

RDP used to be far inferior because it was proprietary Microsoft stuff with buggy open source clients and undocumented servers that kept changing stuff around. These days, open source RDP server software is actually quite solid. I don't know if Gnome/KDE leverage the partial update mechanism that makes RDP so useful on Windows (doesn't seem to seeing the performance I'm getting out of VMs), but I find RDP to be a lot more useful for interactive desktop streams than VNC.
Hmm, "en 8" makes sense to me in that you're using it to reference the next Whateverday that is at least 8 days apart from now.

If we're on a Tuesday, and I say we're meeting Wednesday in eight, that Wednesday is indeed 8 days away.

Now I'm fascinated by this explanation, which covers the use of 15 as well. I'd always thought of it as an approximation for a half month, which is roughly 15 days, but also two weeks.

To partially answer the other Latin languages, Portuguese also uses "quinze dias" (fifteen days) to mean two weeks. But I don't think there is an equivalent of the "en huit". We'd use "na quarta-feira seguinte" which is equivalent to "le mercredi suivant".

yes, exactly this. I believe it rises quickly to attention, upon researching at all the history of this "HOA thing" in the USA, is that they existed purely as a legal fiction to better accomplish oppression of 'the other' by european american english-speaking peoples in the greater united states.

Clauses like "by purchasing this property you promise to sell it only ever in the future to a white person" are sprinkled like salt across legal documents from certain eras.

Everyone was saying the whole thing out loud.

They are not enforceable, per se, today, but they still remain like landmines or unexploded ordinance in the landscape. Where there were clauses like that, that are currently unenforceable, something else might be close-enough to enforceable that it matters.

I simply ask people involved with these institutions something like "Do you know the racist/supremacist underpinnings of (HOA's|zoning|road design standards) in America?"

and usually the first half-second of their next facial expression correctly telegraphs how it'll go.

Every industry I've worked in, I read with fascination the lurid writings of those who hate the industry, either as insiders or outsiders. That an institution in the USA is _soaking wet_ in supremacy, and exists purely to propagate the concept of 'race' into the future is so banal to me, it's not really a hot take, though I remember when I thought something like this was improbable.

Anyway, HOA's are one of 'em. The hold up as ideal the concept of the suburb, which existed as "the alternative" to all things 'ethnic'.

That ideal uses threats of violence to expunge all things 'ethnic'. Sometimes under the guise of displaying class conformity/'not looking poor', but, lets be honest, that's an anti-ethnic sentiment.

It hurts to behold, all of this.

> Meanwhile disproportionately taxing people from outside of the jurisdiction is another disadvantage of congestion pricing, because it's taxation without representation and thereby creates a perverse incentive for the local government to use an inefficient system specifically because it taxes people without a voice in the relevant government.

Is it also “taxation without representation” when NJ Transit charges me a fare to go to New Jersey or to drive on the Turnpike? Infrastructure costs money and the people who use it should help pay for its upkeep and externalities.
Coordinated Vulnerability Disclosure (CVD) principles and practices
Heathrow's power outage is much worse than Atlanta's, this is really bad. Allow me to make my point:

1. UK’s has one major airport to get out of the country—Heathrow. Gatwick and that lot don’t carry the same weight. When Heathrow goes down, you’re proper stuck. Atlanta has DC, Miami right there.

2. UK allows transit visas, so half the people transiting can’t even step out the terminal, what do they do when the airport is closed?

The US doesn’t allow that, everyone clears customs/passport control, so no ‘no man’s land’ limbo for stranded passengers.

3. Heathrow's outage is going to take 24 hours as of right now. That's twice Atlanta

TCL over RDP is technically barely possible with a ridiculously custom client and a server-side stub:

https://rdp2tcp.sourceforge.net/
I might disagree a bit with this, I've had all three titles and from my experience:

A manager is executing on plans, managing the work, aligning people on teams and enforcing policy & process.

A director is creating the plans to solve problems, intaking work, aligning teams and creating good processes from policy.

A VP is about defining the problem teams need to solve, managing capacity/budget for work, aligning on a strategy across a company and creating good policy.

RDP doesn't need to tie into the OS like that. Plenty of ways to run X11 over RDP, for instance. And unlike in VNC, you can actually use the forward/back buttons on your mouse!

RDP in Windows happens to be implemented using some fancy tricks that make it a much better OS for remote work than any Linux distro, but that doesn't mean that's the only possible implementation. Whatever logic can be used to detect block updates in VNC works just as well over RDP. Audio over RDP also works fine on both Windows and Linux so I don't see what the problem would be anywhere else.

As for the shutdown thing, Linux seems to do that too. Makes sense if you use your computer as a terminal server, I guess. I don't reboot my computer over RDP enough to care, really. Still, that's just an implementation choice, nothing to do with the protocol itself.
New USPTO Memo Makes Fighting Patent Trolls Even Harder
Very much agree. The Wikipedia page on Forstall says as much:

> Steve Jobs was referred to as the "decider" who had the final say on products and features while he was CEO, reportedly keeping the "strong personalities at Apple in check by always casting the winning vote or by having the last word", so after Jobs' death many of these executive conflicts became public. Forstall had such a poor relationship with Ive and Mansfield that he could not be in a meeting with them unless Cook mediated; reportedly, Forstall and Ive did not cooperate at any level.

> After Jobs' death in 2011, it had been reported that Forstall was trying to gather power to challenge Cook.

I am actively exploring replacing kepware with telegraf. It seems very promising. Kepware was purchased and deployed before I joined the company. I think it's the defacto standard in the controls world and they never really considered anything else.

> Yes it's achieved an Initial Operational Capacity, at least for the earlier versions. However, it hasn't finished Operational Testing, for the newer versions of software/hardware upgrades.

Yeah, by that standard, we’ve jumped the gun on the B-21 (and the B-2 and the B-1 and...) because the B-52 isn't “finished”, with B-52J Initial Operational Capacity now expected in 2033.
> Your arguments using "first" and "second" are invalid,

> because those words have nothing to do with numbers

"First" is the ordinal number corresponding to the number one, while "second" is the ordinal number corresponding to the number two. You can represent "first" as 1st and "second" as 2nd. I believe the origins of these two words do not significantly impact my argument.
Which good free open source alternatives for remote desktop on win 11 are there where you can install both a server ()for win11 home that have the rdp server) and have a client you connect with? Knows only about VNC, but never liked it? And ironrdp just looks like the client. Whant to selfhost the server.
Yeah, but the fear I have is that if they put somebody like you in charge they'd prioritize visual consistency over functionality and things would just get dropped.

On some level it's an embarrassment, on the other level I never run into a "can't get there from here" experience though I had an awkward experience the other day when I brought home a bargain monster TV from the reuse center and found I had to look across a several different screens to find all the settings to get the video output properly matched to the TV.

It was a false feeling. 1) Vue already had runes, under a different name. 2) Svelte's old behavior was only possible with their dependency-tracking compilation step. i.e. not vanilla. 3) runes use proxies, which are vanilla JS, and don't require a build step at all, although svelte may still have them.
We have by far the highest rate of police-on-civilian violence among developed countries. Our peers on this metric are nations like angola, honduras, mali, colombia. It's not a bias.

A census worker wasn't able to get in contact with the people who lived across the street from me. They suddenly moved out one weekend during the first summer of the pandemic and never came back, leaving the house vacant. I didn't know them very well, but the census worker asked me to make my best guess about the ages of each of the adult and child who had lived there.

Did that cause a double count due to them being counted wherever they moved to? Were my guesses correct? Or correct enough? No idea but that's the data the census worker recorded.
