For me self hosting is about taking responsibility and having the option of identifying and eliminating faults and threat surfaces myself. This is very much extra that will consume time, energy, and attention. With all this my expectation

My understanding, sorry for not having links at the ready for all this, is that many studying this currently think that Cro Magons, Neanderthals, and Denisovans all mixed to varying degrees at various times and emerged from a complex mix of

Made a mostly minimal status page app thing for some services based development and ripping out the jQuery used during prototyping cut the total load by almost half. There are some use cases where skipping even small but unnecessary inclus

If you listen carefully to an infected tree, for example with a stethoscope applied directly to the trunk, then you can hear the mandible chatter generated by thousands of tiny mouths feeding.

There is currently a big surge in low alcohol concentration brewing with a range of new options available. You should check out distributors for more. I find many options at Whole Foods so this stuff must be approaching the mainstream.

There is an ugly trend here. We want to protect children from exploitation, so we make artificial learning environments where kids interact with each other instead of adults and perform often silly exercises instead of actually participati

Oddly enough, despite all the problems in Communist Cuba, they have been able to keep much of a modern health care system going with absolute minimum resources. It appears that empowering doctors to make decisions is a big part of that. C

Silicon Valley as it is known now started with a burst of single family home building in the postwar years. The knowledge workers were already there, mostly associated with Berkeley or Stanford. Cambridge is in a similar situation with ma

Not at all. Recessions are corrections. The overall effect is beneficial. They cannot be avoided, only delayed. Environmental issues often drive recessions which at some level is what we are seeing now. Dealing with recessions and envi

It would be an additional cost, but it might make sense to require that military contractors include full documentation of production methods with their products. There could be odd measures like keeping the records sealed for a time to pr

Mostly I do remote work from a coworking facility. This is liberating for me in much the same way as work from home, but has none of the downsides you mention. The article keeps returning to the term "flexibility" which occurs 2

Stack Overflow is missing some of the key stuff that generates complexity in the Uber systems. Calculating the value of the service offered and pairing questioners with responders might potentially be really useful additions to Stack Overf

Absolutism is often misguided, especially in light of history. This reminds me of the people saying the US and the West are a curse to the global south because of their constant meddling without giving credit for the green revolution and a

It is important to be specific with qualifiers in this. The scientists "fell ill". Local hospitals became unusually busy. This is not all that unusual and relates to the common practice of wearing masks which has been well esta

Strictly speaking it is true that the F-35 is an air superiority fighter. At a more general level it is only a component of a larger war machine. Air superiority is typically asserted as part of a planned force projection. Civilian mobil

There are important exceptions to this. Old industrial era commercial buildings often have large spaces and big windows that make them relatively easy to convert. This is why lofts as a form make sense while also being desirable. Much of

Instead of subsidizing agricultural production which causes weirdly imbalanced incentives we might try subsidizing the practice of keeping 1% of the land in a wild state to encourage ecological diversity. That would keep a small channel op

Seems like this is based on a lot of broken metrics. When working for a big company in an office there were often days when key contributors were off their peak for days at a time because of a commute that had a big crash delay or a road r

So dismissive! I've been repeatedly told that literally no one uses the site as is, but this is strange because that is how I use Reddit. So I am a nobody? Thanks, I guess. My opinion does not match yours therefore I must be a vict
