Fission first! Let's build more nuclear power plants too. We know how to do it, and it's only so expensive because we got scared and stopped. Economies of scale for clean, safe, reliable baseload power.

Do you have any source or more information on the $100/hr figure? That seems shockingly high to me. It only costs about twice or three times that to run a small airplane or a farming combine.

Perhaps. Many people in America also claim to care about the environmental impact of a number of things. I think many more people care performatively than transformatively. Personally, I don't worry too much about it. It feels like a l

Found the European :) With power as cheap as it is in the US, some of us just haven't had to worry about this as much as we maybe should. My rack is currently pulling 800W and is mostly idle. I have a couple projects in the works to br

I believe much of the secret government communications are accomplished using layered secret encryption algorithms. Many of these are symmetric and have physical key loading accomplished by a guy with a gun.

Yep - follow distance makes a huge difference in both safety and traffic flow. If you can leave 20 cars in front of you, do it. You get there just as fast but have more time to react and don't need to hit your brakes as often.

Except then when I type ":Wq" by mistake, I get an error instead of vim doing what I expect. This happens about 20 times a day for me. One line of config maintenance is well worth the end of this daily annoyance.

You need to be glued to the right lane though, or be willing to speed while passing even slower traffic, or you will definitely mess up the flow.

Yes, every Python 3 release for me (at least since 3.6) has had a breaking change or two that affects a library I use. Most of the time, the fix is pretty trivial, but not always.

Are you talking about the AutoKeyCard case, Kristopher Ervin and Matthew Hoover? Ervin finally gets out of prison on 2025-05-03 and Hoover gets out on Christmas 2026.

I think Pixels are pretty polished, at least compared to all the cheapo off-brand Android options out there. Some people like Samsung better but I can't stand their UI. Apple would be fine if I could sideload...

I wish Android had a better backup story. If you're using iOS, it's as simple as the article describes. If you use even modern Android on modern Pixel, backup only includes a fraction of what you need to recover. Things like Signa
