* You're self-directed but good at communication.

* You're excited about working for a startup and moving quickly.

Joey Hess seems to live a much saner life, while also living on battery (and solar, I assume): https://joeyh.name/blog/entry/notes_for_a_caretaker/
You can do even better than that. For $129, you can get a pedal-powered mini washing machine: http://www.gizmag.com/yirego-drumi-foot-powered-washer/37586...
Yes, battery electricity is cleaner even if it comes from coal, compared to the energy given by gas in gas-powered cars. I've read an article about this recently but I don't remember which. The point it it's much more "efficient" to create that energy in a power plant than it is to do it within a small car engine.

Now, add to that the fact that in the US, the electricity is not 100% produced by coal and natural gas (I think 70% in total, but that number will also shrink when more companies adopt solar panels and batteries for power generation/storage).

Also, it's much better to keep the pollution away from the cities and people.

As the creator of Soylent, Rob has probably had access to 2.0 for many years now. It's well known the military keeps civilian Soylent technology years behind what they're using.
Well battery tech will be a roadblock for some time but deadlines as far out as these make it look like something is being accomplished but provide enough time to not actually be a deadline. Converting off peak electrical power into hydrogen is getting more and more viable and frankly, I don't mind storing and transporting hydrogen versus stuffing the planet with li-ion batteries replete with their hazards.

GM should be first out of the gate with an affordable 200 mile range EV by late 16 or early 17. It will be interesting if other manufacturers follow quickly or wait too see what the uptake is. Fuel cells will likely be the filler application to directly replace fossil fuel engines.

that twenty year gap should be sufficient to get all used cars off the road as the one issue not addressed by current rebates is that the poor rarely can take advantage of them. Currently they seem to only serve the well off who could buy into new tech without them. California is already taking steps to fix this, income limits and such, but the federal government needs to do similar. Direct it to average consumer priced cars and likely there would be wider acceptance

Conceptually it wouldn't be different than satisfying 95% of sexual needs with well-engineered sex dolls; then also satisfying 95% of the fitness needs with well-engineered electrical muscle stimulators; then also satifying 95% of the romantic needs with a well-engineered dating app. And so on.

I wouldn't define myself "worried" of this, but I find utterly banal (infinitely misable, to be honest) that the existential end of all this optimization is (metaphorically) to have more time to produce and consume the next iPhone.

Talking on the strictly nutritional perspective, we can't compare the past. Infant mortality, in those times, was much higher. And the body may be resilient, yes, but don't forget that a very large percentage of people in USA is clinically obese, that is, sick.

California doesn't burn coal in-state, but it still gets around 5%-7% [1] of its energy from coal via imports from five coal plants. [2]

I can't seem to find any more recent data showing how that coal energy use has declined in the last two years, the most current seems to be 2013.

They appear to have projected to be getting 20gwh of energy from coal in 2015. [3]

> Modo and blender are much more popular in my experience.

I don't know anyone who uses Modo for animation (its animation tools are very opinionated/idiosyncratic in their approach) and Blender doesn't have much uptake outside of hobbyists. When it comes to rigging and animation, Maya still reigns supreme, crusty though it may be. For hard surface modeling, Modo is the best in class and it just got better with built-in Mesh Fusion in 901, but many people raised on Max and Maya stick to what they know. For organic modeling, ZBrush for sculpting and retopo is the standard, usually with a traditional modeling package in the loop.
I think you'll get more value from local Meetups and the very few non-marketing conferences out there. If it's a tech company putting on a conference, expect a lot of marketing. Conferences like Strangeloop and the no-fluff ones are usually better.

Other than that, books and screencasts seem to be a good way to spend that training budget as well. But there's a ton of videos online available for free too.

Of course, they all require time. Which is money. :)

Or is it so that we just don't notice the huge improvements Google has made to the search engine, because we are using it every day and the changes are mostly evolutionary and not revolutionary?

Hard to say. Personally I have noticed that they are doing pretty good job at keeping the spam out of my search results. It wasn't so always. Another thing that still amazes me is the almost realtime indexing of web.
The great advantage of vim is that it forces you to use only the keyboard. No mouse at all! Mouse is slow. Keyboard is fast (once you get used to it).
When I got to the washing part (I skipped over the Soylent part because I assumed it was just a paid advertisement), I expected him to talk about using a washing board or something.

No, I just buy new clothes. So instead of using a little energy for a spin cycle, I have factories in China spew coal, then have shipping freights (some of the worst environmental offenders) bring it half way across the world for me so I can wear it once, then presumably add it to the land fill.
Peoples' frustration has nothing to do with the actions of 'rogue employees'... to the contrary, it often seems that when a 'rogue' is trotted out as the culprit for malfeasance, many people with a brain to think come to conclusion that the 'rogue' is simply being scapegoated to paper over an systemic problem (viz LIBOR scandal, 2010 flash crash in US markets, etc.)

I believe that people tend to jump into "solution-mode" too fast. I think it is important to do the proper research before junpung to false conclusions. It is often times not about the solution but the environment the solution lives in. This us what I tried to bring across in the article.
That is mostly due to extreme taxes.
> Even in less temperate locales I wonder if we really need to define our environment to within single degree Fahrenheit.

Hey, sure, tell that to everyone in the northern states, no need for heat right? I mean when it's 10°F outside you can just shut the windows and be nice and warm, right?
Indonesians surveyed by Galpaya told her that they didn’t use the internet. But in focus groups, they would talk enthusiastically about how much time they spent on Facebook. Galpaya, a researcher (and now CEO) with LIRNEasia, a think tank, called Rohan Samarajiva, her boss at the time, to tell him what she had discovered. “It seemed that in their minds, the Internet did not exist; only Facebook,” he concluded. [1]

It doesn't matter what intellectuals are satisfied with, the internet (like TV and Radio) will be driven by what the mass-market consumer wants. If they can get all they need from Facebook for free (running a business & talking to friends and family), then why pay more to develop a network that they don't want?

Since you brought up the Sankey diagrams I'll piggyback on you to mention that I spent a summer at LLNL and got to meet the team/person that produces these. I was also given the program they currently use (it's java, still have it somewhere. . .), and tasked to look into applying it to city flows. I have a couple of the results here[1] (my boxes are off in terms of size, but the flow widths should be correct). I still love those diagrams although I haven't touched them in 3 years. It's a fantastic way to visualize a ton of information. The trick is really just finding appropriate data.

In my opinion Feedly is hands down better than any other RSS reader I have ever used, including Google Reader. I don't read auto-selected articles, however, I subscribe to and curate feeds on my own.

I'm afraid RSS readers aren't very popular, however, and Google was indeed in a better place to change that.
I was hoping this another article about how a building was switched from AC to lower voltage DC.
> I really hope the current centralization of the web is an evolutionary step.

In our Western economic system, the question boils down to:

Can a company make more money based on the concept of centralization or decentralization?

The answer seems obvious (to me).
Just what practical options are currently available? With roof-mounted solar panels becoming commonplace (at least where I live) it seems like 12V DC is a practical target, but it irks me that it gets converted to AC before being reconverted back to DC by a wall wart a few meters away.
