The article sort of mentions this in passing, but doesn't subject it to much rigor, and the (completely obvious?) counterargument is that by the time it causes male infertility, the affected have already reproduced.

That's such a weirdly blatant lie.

"U.S Born" == "U.S Citizenship" would be the default assumption of any rational, thinking person.

You can add more words to say the same thing but it only ends up being annoying.


I was curious about this statement and did a search and could not find anything about it.

It appears that EV technology is new enough that it's Chinese companies that are the ones innovating, especially in battery technology.


Expanding that metaphor, billionares are tumors of a metastatic cancer. Excising the biggest ones won't fix the underlying problem, but it might buy the patient more time.

you never know.. LLM could go full sherlock holmes. Based on the type of grass and the direction of the wind. The type of wood work used. There could be millions of factors that it could factor in and then guess it to a t.

How do you “accidentally post a photo”?

Yeah this person is asking how to make the smallest executable. They don’t want garbage collection.

Pass me the crack pipe brotha

I have an old eee pc myself! Tested it on that one too, performance is alright, not really optimized but since it’s so “basic” compared to real OSes it should be quite fast. Bigger problems are bugs and lack of functionality for real hardware. (Userspace applications are only available on the QEMU images.

It started after finishing the operating systems class in university. The class was really “on rails” and I wanted to do my own thing.

That's a good one. I was thinking more along the lines of something low effort that I could do at a desk or on a couch that will still lead me to improving a skill of some sort.

Hehe, had to write some test programs. That’s one of them.

At 10 PM I walk to the local and have three pints. The woman is not working and socializes during the day with other moms.

very useful case study

Thanks! Been my main hobby project since university, appreciate it!

It's one of two backups. The software is great. Dropbox level of just works. iDrive by comparison is cheaper but always errors and files it couldn't touch.

I think shame is disappearing from American culture. And that's a shame.

Thanks! I suspect that for my use case (actual backup no meed for cloud access) s3 glacier is statistically cheaper.

I struggled with this after a divorce. I relied on my wife to be the inviter. When I lost her, I lost my social group too because I didn't take initiative to maintain friendships.

Now I'm 40, divorced, and have an atrophied social network. Forcing myself to become an inviter is the only path out of loneliness.


As a customer do I need to worry? It is my favourite cheapo backup.

> sensible ways of detecting and handling failure at such scale

War and revolution. 'Burn it down and start from scratch' is an extreme path to fix a failing country. Historically, the people that rebuild are rarely the same people that burned it down.


Technology ironically. The stuff Peter talks about where Y=0. The covid vaccine inventors for example.

Other Y=0 things are people giving their lives for the greater good and basic rights. Geneva convention. Rights for black people, rights for women.

Infact the world runs on Y=0 stuff.


We can optimize chances for successful experiments, and I doubt optimization involves having a lot of hands on by tech CEOs or the wives of tech CEOs (Zuckerberg and Bezos wives’ come to mind, but there are many cases). The Gates foundation and others that have had success in various areas are relatively hands off, or “bottom up” in their approach. One can spend money to feel good, or one can spend money to do good. A lot of tech CEO/tech wife CEO philanthropy is the former.

Man, more people should read Schumpeter. Capitalism is really good for rapid growth. The second the profit motive negatively affects the quality of the product or efficiency of its production a company should be nationalized to prevent the profit motive from destroying part of our economy (the actually-useful part, that is, not investors or shareholders or dividends).

I agree, I got the same impression when I was reading the article.

Yes, but they weren't field specific from the rise of the PC to the iPhone. The next life skill, homeEc skill, public forum, etc meant the average kid or middle class adult was being judged on whether they were working on these skills.
