Except some of them are still building new plants today (large ones cause higher efficiency, unsurprisingly). For China and Russia those are entirely separate from the kind of reactors used for plutonium reprocessing or medical isotopes or whatever else, they only exist to boil water at the end of the day. The only incentive here is electricity, and both have plenty of other options available.
Bit of a paradox isn't it? They'd just burn coal or gas instead if that was much cheaper.
My hidden assumption: I said the set of names must be countable! I assumed you would know that naming means assigning a finite string (in the Ithkuil writing system of course). and don't nitpick further or else I'll have to write a proof in Agda or Rocq lol
It's wild that a tradition like this has stuck around for nearly 600 years and turned into such a valuable climate record. 25 no-cross winters in the last 34 years compared to just 5 in the 50 years before 1950 is pretty much a straight up graph of global warming...
It’s totally possible, but would seriously need to not use much parallelism, and definitely not going to use the GPU much. So it would be really slow, but possible.
Originally, there was no road on the ground; it was formed by the many people walking on it. Similarly, a word didn't exist originally; it came into being as many people used it.
If you've dealt with the headache that can be FIX, you'll realize the annoyance this can be because unless your tooling is very aware you're doing this (it probably isn't, unless you've built your own) everything looks like garbage until you tune everything to make it pretty.
Works internally, breaks externally, which half of the benefit of a CSV is that you can give just about anyone the file and they can work with it.
Linux wouldn't be zero. There's still a cost involved in installing the OS, even if it's miniscule and automatable. You can bet your life that laptop manufacturers are going to charge you for it.
I'm curious what you're replacing Actions with on the Forgejo side, and whether running that infra yourself feels like part of the benefit or another thing you'd rather not own
> Maybe it's because I'm American, but I can't imagine actually saying that to someone. I'd sorta expect them to throw hands if I talked like that about Jesus.
I mean, that's exactly what a "slur" is. They are not coined with the recipient's comfort in mind, and saying them can sometimes provoke exactly the sort of fight you imagine.
If anything, violent consequences ought to be particularly unsurprising to an American, since the US is, by Western standards, an exceptionally violent country. [1]
Having done exactly this for adding accessibility into a crypto wallet in the past, (yes crypto wanted even the disabled), it is plainly obvious why this is not standard.
It is an absolute train-wreck trying to get everything to work and for the overwhelming majority of products it isnt work the effort. It isnt like you put a wheelchair ramp up and are done. It is a constant battle with every change.
It is just another one of those things where the minuet minority suffers. Now if a company got some tax write off for it, that would change things.
Even if Barack Obama himself was re-elected and the Democrats gained a 102% supermajority, does anybody seriously believe this sanction in particular would be reversed?
> That tiny shell script is the -minimum- security any password manager must have.
So any device without touchid or a yubikey can't use a password manager without typing out your full master password every time you want to access any password?
It works better on a geographically spread-out grid, and the data centers are running into the same limit that renewable plants are, which is that the grid is struggling to keep up (in large part, in many places, due to a history of underinvestment).
I’ve heard this about mechanical electronic signage used for team dashboards 30-40 years ago.
You’d sit in the office with your back to it and the clicky clacky sounds would be going every so often when the content updated. but people would know the specific clicky clacky sound that required them to turn around and read the sign based on their job function.
I’ve also heard of day traders mapping stock tickers or other data into sound and having headphones on all day with it
Duncan Elliott taught my graduate (IIRC) computer architecture course while writing that thesis - we all talked about C-RAM for a while.. And I think it was a rehash of an even older paper / discussion about that idea.
What are the advantage of “scroll to content/top” buttons over <main> for screen readers? I think that the use of those buttons is for when the CSS fails to load.
It is insane to me that the datacenter operator caused the cooling to fail and then failed to notify Proton either before or after the incident. That seems exceptionally bad - is that normal?!
I hope Proton gets reimbursed for the cost of the failed equipment, but I am rather surprised that the servers don't protect themselves automatically in such cases.
Politics doesn't work if a significant part of the leadership is constantly acting in bad faith, and behaving essentially sociopathically.
Voters' and citizens' (and some judges') willingness to support sociopathic behavior by leaders is a profound failing at their basic social duties, and is deeply shameful.
I can "visualize" geometry and technical drawings by focusing on parts of them. It was enough for all my school work.
But then I learned about analytic geometry in the 8-th grade. I annoyed every math teacher by just using it to solve all the school geometry problems. And quite a few geometry problems in math competitions.
