I believe that for every joule of electricity used, 4 or 4.1 joules are pumped from the environment into the water. This is contrast to conventional water heaters which are bounded by an efficiency of 1, where, for example, burning gas dir

When the Mexican government signed up for NSO’s spyware, who did they target? A woman who was working to pass a sugar sweetened beverage tax. And her children.

Support for Trump, or even Republicans writ large, means support for reducing taxes (both estate and income) on the wealthy, while increasing them on consumers (via tariffs). Musk has been an ardent supporter of Trump.

To hell with writing a test for you. That’s what you say to someone who gets paid by you. If the project doesn’t want the fix. That’s their issue, not the reporter’s.

Having the equivalent jq expression in these examples might help to compare expressiveness, and it might help me see if jq could “just” use a DFA when a (sub)query admits one. grep, ripgrep, etc change algorithms based on the query and tha

If I have X dollars and get taxed such that I have X * T after the taxing, say T = (1 - .20), then I invest and that money grows by a factor, say G = (1 + .50), over the years, then in the mean time inflation hits and reduces my money by a

I fully agree. Claude’s review comments have been 50% useful, which is great . For comparison I have almost never found a useful TeamScale comment (classic static analyzer). Even more important, half of Claude’s good finds are orthogona

For this model to be convincing, you would need to explain the motivation for the pension funds loaning the 90% that then goes to zero. They are repeat investors after all. As are the PE firms. Are they getting kickbacks? That would be str

The machine (AirSense 11) has been a god send for me. I can’t believe I waited so long. I haven’t slept a night without it since my first. I haven’t had to tweak any settings. It’s just worked. Sure it’s annoying to travel with, and you

It’s a bit clickbait-y, but the article is short, to the point, and frankly satisfying. If there is such a thing as good clickbait, then this might be it. Impressive work!

The pep didn’t mention considering reusing `async` instead of `lazy`. That would’ve conveyed the same thing to me without a new keyword, and would haven’t been similar to html’s usage `async`.

Yes, but these examples are not zero-sum. There is no net winning for society from gambling zero-sum, whereas there can be from risky startups.

Here’s my solution: clicking four boxes that form the corners of a rectangle will flip them leaving the rest of the board unchanged. Using this move you can find sets of rectangle corners with more white than red and just click them. This
