The writing has some of the same feel as the writing for HTMX or Tailwind. Paraphrasing: "Yes we know this is different. Yes it is very simple. You may not be used to it, but it is easier to understand and work with. You don't hav

"ended up rolling my own version" What does that mean in this case? What does a hand rolled version of this look like?

Don't arguments have context? Doesn't the conclusion of an argument depend on the context?

Those that can adapt quickly will be quite happy about it. So who gets to set the metric?

Have you noticed how many Indian and Chinese geniuses there are? They are making the whole world better for everyone. Africa needs better education systems and we'll all be able to benefit from the abundance of African geniuses too.

Why not? Both water shortage and greenhouse gas emissions are because of our lacking energy technology. Get better energy tech and we solve both. Go modern nuclear.

Yeah I can't defend the existence of caffeine pills. They're actually dangerous and you could just drink coffee instead.

My fix was to quit the job where I felt like I had to drink coffee to survive the drudgery. Now I work from home and can jus be tired if I'm tired. It's great.

An addiction is only a problem if it's a problem. I had to ditch coffee because of anxiety. So glad I did. But if you're sleeping well and don't feel like you have an issue with anxiety, then lucky you.

I drank coffee from age 20 to age 37. I've been coffee free for 2 years now. I had anxiety from age 20 to age 37. I've just realised I don't remember when my anxiety stopped, but it's been gone for a while now. Learning

PRQL compiles to SQL. Why would it be faster? The intention is rather for it to be simpler, as it uses a linear direction of data handling. SQL jumps back and forth with its order of operations and can be confusing in this way. PRQL also ha

If you want an alternative then you will need to pay for it. Apple makes money because people pay for their products. Maybe consider the Framework laptop. I don't have it, but that's what I'd consider if I wanted off Apple&#x

What type of mechanical wear are you thinking of? I can think of a propeller and generator, but those are solved problems. This is just a boat with a propeller. Only instead of using the generator as an engine to spin the propeller, the tid

We are perfectly capable of removing barnacles from ship hulls. What makes these kite hulls different? These are just fancy boats you know.

The tides are always moving so this energy is much more useful as baseload energy. They will lessen the need for energy storage for wind and solar, making wind and solar even cheaper. So tidal doesn't actually have to be as cheap as wi

Fortunately they are smart. They will learn fast. This isn't a new problem. Ships do get whales caught in the propellers from time to time. I was in a ship that had exactly this experience in 2001. Whole ship stopped and wouldn't

Production of the kites is partly in the UK and there are projects in the works to put them to use there: https://minesto.com/holyhead-deep/

> No divers necessary, and no giant crane platforms like for offshore wind turbines, either. This is critical to the economic viability of the project.

That has been attempted in the same location in Vestmanna in the Faroe Islands. From what I've been told it pulled itself loose immediately, and the anchoring was pretty significant. This kite swims in a figure 8, so I guess that doesn

Store, selector, reducer, dispatch, action... Redux is concept overload. It's abstractions on top of abstractions on top of abstractions... It makes simple things complex.

Why should a nodejs dev have to pull in python? That is a heavy solution when you can script well in js already.
