Web gangsters will definetly appreciate this great new training resource! ;)

You can fix a software, but you can only punish a human driver, hoping it will fix itself. Also, both can be forced to train, but you can reproducibly test only the software, no guarantee that your retrained human driver will not succomb to

Could even just be that night owls are "people with more inertia".

by henearkr 6y ago
Based on my own night-owl life, I'd suggest that might be because people might be more sensitive to social interaction (thus these interactions being more disruptive), and thus need the calm of the night to pursue their hobbies and rea

Yes I had RTFA. Seems like you can download Windows nowadays, and you need to buy the license key separately. I am wrong? (I ask naively, because I am not a Microsoft user)

Yes, it seems like 3D scans and drones are a bit cheap solutions, that would satisfy or impress some non-expert. If they do it on a handful of sites, chemical analysis would be a true way to show their commitment.

Microsoft hasn't changed after all... I used to like what they were doing with WSL, but now on the contrary it starts to worry me, because it can become an avenue of evil behavior against users/devs/open-source/...

I loved Willard's General Topology.

I was thinking about even deeper investigation, like DNA sampling, other chemical analyses in particular in the ground near or inside the sites. Most often, the real value of having historical sites around is that even decades later there c

BHP should offer scientific and technical support, as well as time, to study the sites before they are destructed. If this is done seriously, the cultural heritage could actually be augmented, by the knowledge, even after the physical destr

I don't know everywhere in the world, but at least in some of the poorest countries of West Africa, in the low-to-middle class (merchants, a large part of bike/car taxis, salesmen, teachers, IT...) everyone have a smartphone, usin

But, supposing tech artefacts are still around, why the autonomous gangs would use old hw? If you enter a house or a store today, would you not more likely find a sdcard than a floppy drive?

by henearkr 6y ago
I wonder, after a civilization collapse in some near future, would there really be that much "older hardware" like floppy disks. Wouldn't the currently modern hw (usb hdd / sdd) be overwhelmingly more present and in a us

Most of the societal or political problems of the world are a medical problem: how do you treat IQ deficiency. You solve that, you revolutionize politics, ethics, demographics, etc.

I can't even begin to tell how hard it is to be weirdo (e.g. vegan, teetotaller) even nowadays in some (although very much developped) societies like Japan. I am both (vegan & teetotaller), working in Japan, and a substantial part

Wow, that's a movie right for the current situation. I know this isn't actually related, but a virus causing loss of smell and irresistible anger, with scenes of rioting... PS: don't get me wrong, this is just in the film. I

I agree with what you said, however what is even more adding to the confusion is that the Linux Foundation is Linus Torvalds' employer...

I could be wrong, but seems like a pipeline is extremely hard to build, with lots of volume of material, concrete or steel. It seems lighter and easier to build an HV electric line. I see HV lines everywhere, but very few pipelines. Also, p

You are thinking about the set of two actions {growing a forest from bare ground + burning it}. That indeed would be zero-emission. But burning a preexisting forest is cancelling an existing carbon store and converting lots of solid carbon

Thanks I'm very honored.

by henearkr 6y ago
Yes electricity is more easily transmitted than fuel. Compare: pipeline vs electric line. And no I'm not speaking of Li-ion. Sorry but I was speaking about Li-metal, a still immature technology. So that weakens my argument. On the othe

No, this does not work. A forest is a carbon store. Burning trees puts carbon from this store to the atmosphere. To count it as carbon neutral is an accounting mistake, that could be very costly... Burn the dead leaves and you shrink humus

Also, what about energy-producing gym equipment in airliners? Free energy (but maybe only an epsilon), and no more deep vein thrombosis!!

I used that, and actually I may have missed the bit where they explain that "lithium metal as an anode were suggested for future high-energy-density batteries", implying that it's still an immature tech. https://pu

Not at all, except if you mean arctic winter (when it's technically night all the day). Also, electric offers you the plethora of choices in methods to produce your energy. If it's not photovoltaic, you still have many solutions.

But, using electric, I just have to charge it by plugging in a solar panel. With existing OTS products. If I want to burn dead leaves to run my car... well that sucks right now (moreover that isn't anymore 0 emission).

> Thankfully electricity is not available everywhere, e.g. in the middle of a forest. Well, do you easily find a refueling station in the middle of the forest? If you brought spare fuel containers, why wouldn't you bring all-the-sam

There is not a huge gap at all. Li-metal batteries [edit: still an immature tech] are at around 14 MJ / kg, and gasoline is at 47.5 MJ / kg. Moreover, suppose that you are really "off-grid". Meaning, you are off any fu

Electrons are energy-dense and easily transported, stored, and transferred. That's probably what a lot of people have missed about the technological revolution that just happened. > ICEs have a lot of life left in them yet. > [..
