Sounds like a really bad strategy for a security email address...

Not sufficient, unfortunately. The strings for file paths are stored in wholly different infrastructure with wholly different optimizations. It probably lives in your database. You really don't want people just stuffing gigabytes into

We have 8 billion people. We have enough people to solve both the energy problem and the food efficiency problem. That said, it's very, very funny that you responded to an article about energy inefficiency (calorie -> calorie) and s

Unlimited strings are a problem. People will use it as storage. No, I'm not joking. We used to allow arbitrary paths in a cloud API I owned. Within about a month someone had figured out that the cost to store a single byte file was ef

I guess there's a point where that's arguably true. But it's not correct universally, and it's certainly not true if you look at earth and the sun. The heat generated within the earth comes from nuclear decay and the ene

Then solar and wind aren't technically renewable either, because the sun is going to eventually consume the earth and explode. Geothermal is renewable.

I see a Tolkien name on a tech company, I assume the founders deeply misunderstood Tolkien and probably are pretty gross. I haven't been wrong yet.

If you had a big enough battery, could you sell electricity back to the grid later? Get paid to charge the battery, get paid to discharge the battery? It seems silly, but actually... it's driving useful behavior I suppose. Then again,

Some people do deploy it like you say. Pleasure chatting with you.

I think you have not been reading my posts where I unambiguously and repeatedly condemn both Hamas and Hezbollah, and consider firing rockets into civilian areas a war crime. You seem to believe there's a right side and a wrong side to

I do disagree that it's the rhetorical purpose. This quote says to me that we need to think about outcomes early AND late in the life of designing and operating a system. We have unintended consequences, and when we elect to not (or in

Enemy of my culture? Picked a side? Never been there? I have eyes and I have a heart capable of empathy. I have a belief that all humans deserve wellbeing, even people I disagree and dislike. Watching a genocide unfold is clearly antithetic

Apologies. I did conflate two instances of rape. There are so many, it's possible that I combined two - one where the victim had a ruptured bowel, lung damage, broken ribs, and a torn anus; and another that lead to a death. That said,

"Technically true".... it's pretty clear that Israel has, on multiple occasions, fired at UN peacekeeping bases. This is not like "Heat of the moment" failures. These are established sites with UN peacekeepers who h

Fair. Intent - what someone wanted or expected the system to do. Purpose - what the system does in practice. The reason, or primary function for it. Some classic examples -- post it notes were intended as a aerospace adhesive, but found

Has anyone in this thread said what Hezbollah is doing isn't a war crime? I'd like to think we're all in agreement that firing unguided rockets into civilian areas is unacceptable. One can believe both parties are committin

Israel fired on, and killed, UN peace keepers. Multiple times. I think they are hardly disciplined here.

I think you might be the one falling for propaganda, my friend. Hamas is evil. Hezbollah is evil. Their behavior is indefensible. Responding by leveling the homes of millions of civilians, holding people in an open air prison. Limiting food

Evil is in the eye of the beholder. To me, killing innocent people is ontologically evil.

I didn't say this was all happening in Lebanon. The West Bank, Gaza, prisons across Israel. And now, an invasion and razing civilian lives in Lebanon.

Your policy is unlimited violence against civilians? You realize how ghoulish that is, right?

by ahhhhnoooo 7mo ago
The person you are replying to is probably someone who won't understand that the genocide Israel is perpetrating, the settler colonialism, the systemic abuses and torture and rape of prisoners, the invasion are all justified somehow. S

Headline really deploying passive voice here. Israel's invasion and wide bombings of Lebanon is what has displaced a million people.

by ahhhhnoooo 7mo ago
It's not at all like that? Claiming that a system's purpose is something it consistently fails to do is absurd. Intentions don't matter, outcomes matter. This is a pretty basic systems theorist argument, to be honest...

by ahhhhnoooo 7mo ago
The purpose of a system is what it does. If that wasn't the purpose, the system would be changed.

One hopes it's satire. Can't tell, unfortunately.
