If the problem with nuclear was just bureaucracy, China would be building 100 of them right now. These are complicated machines and even the second most powerful country in the world is only building 17 currently.

Hydro is not green at all. Nuclear is much better for the environment than hydro.

ORM is a very valuable tool and should be aggressively used. One can always step down to SQL as needed but otherwise, the ORM logic is easier to write and maintain.

I remember getting beers with somebody in the aughts who claimed that he saw an entire website where the url was the key and the webpage was the value in an Oracle database. Any code was SQL operations inside the value field.

Seems like it's really easy to diagnose - problem with comms over a cable? 1/ is it seated correctly, 2/ are there any obvious defects, 3/ are the specs of the cable and the ports aligned? Having incompatible ports mean

* If it's an actionable error, catch it as low as you can action on it. Otherwise let it propagate. * If it's a useful error for another developer (or yourself) to see, log it. * Use different loglevels in your code so another d

VS Code users are generally pretty junior or solo. Once a developer gets serious they'll usually need to go to a full IDE and that's either a JetBrains product or Visual Studio (xcode for Apple).

I think those smaller cars are also more durable. Heavy SUVs just have higher loads and need more complexity to support them ... which leads to a higher failure rate.

I mean in your mind ... if all the economists you saw in leadership positions in the US were black I suspect you would think that's notable. That was the thought exercise I was asking you to do.

That wouldn't be the implication of a title like that and I suspect you know you're being disingenuous. It would mean that some of our most important decisions are being made by people from a single background that doesn't r

The purpose of these drives is not for archive. In fact, individual SSDs in general should not be used for archiving. They are for performance. Since we're probably talking about laptops or phones typically, there's also the lo

All of Apple's software is free so you pay via hardware and services. I prefer the Mac ecosystem to the Windows one so there really is no choice. I'd be open to another ecosystem (Linux?) if it worked better than the Apple one o

On the CLI, you'll see the error just above the prompt and then the stack trace above that. It makes sense since the user is always reading up the terminal in reverse order.

IMHO what you should try is excluding all sites with excessive third-party cookies, sluggish performance, and too many ads. That will slice the index down by 80% probably but it would be a really nice thing to see. It might push out low q

Why is there no OED app (just the Shorter one ... which is awful)? How much would it cost to open source the OED and put it inside a proper foundation? That dictionary was built by volunteers and it's time for it to be free.

SIPC is just the framework. The primary thing is that customer assets are held in custodian accounts and not intermingled with the brokerage assets themselves. This is different than a bank which can lose your money if it does go bankrupt

Wouldn't a hack of the custodial holdings just mean their customers lose their money but the business is otherwise a going concern (for that few moments until everybody stops paying them)?

Half-assed happens in both scenarios. If you have something shippable by the pre-ordained date or shortly thereafter, it ships. Whether you use an adaptive or predictive approach, the outcome is the same that further improvements may or m

I like the idea of a 'metric pound' at 500g. Definitely smart, similar to a 'metric ton'.
