Install sponsorblock and those too go away.

Except ImGUI’s missing what I consider essential features for macOS: proper multitouch support (two finger panning, pinch to zoom).

Yes, take disparate sets of employees and like, oh idk unionize while you still have power.

Actions like these often lead to unions. Look into the history of how the Kickstarter union came to be.

It often starts as collective action in response to a blatant disregard for the values of the workers


Shocked pikachu face. An outcome that could and was foretold before this started. I wonder how much money BP fleeced taxpayers for with this hopium scam?

Reinforcement learning with program feedback

Well if you insert metal rods through it you can help with the heat transfer, then you can lattice over the holes. If you pumpkin pie it, you might even be able to have it hold up under its own weight. Plus a bit of stiff whipped cream in the holes would help.

I would make them fairly small (personal pie-sized) and use a filling that doesn't need to be cooked in the oven to set. The main limiting factors, I think, would be structural integrity and heating the filling to the center. You could set it on a ring (like the rim of a spring-form pan) to support it better during cooking. Now, a four dimensional hyper pie, on the other hand...

If you’re not cooking the filling, then do a teflon ballon that you put the crust on. Cook. Remove balloon. Then pipe in ready to ready to set chocolate cream.

One of those spherical ice cube makers but made of cast iron, a little like those little waffle makers.

I don’t think those will work, you want the outer surface to be crispy. The dough’s gotta go on the outside of the sphere.

I would bake it on a pizza stone to ensure an even bake.

Has nobody here ever done this? It comes out perfectly cooked.


You cook a spherical pie on a pizza stone? Do tell.

I cook a circular pie on a pizza stone.

If we don't care what the filling is you could just use sticky rice.

A pie like this, to the face of a problematic politician, would add drama and help resurrect the profile of pies as activists!

Good article, as always hydrogen for transport is dead. Unfortunately, as they say, what is dead can never die. And there will always be companies trying to siphon off public funds to do “trial runs”.

One thing that seems wrong is in the efficiency comparison: step 1 for hydrogen should be grid transmission, not electrolyzer.

Also, how come the BEV price doesn’t adjust in response to electricity prices (not that it would impact the result).


Good catches, both of them. The hydrogen pathway should include grid transmission before the electrolyser, you're right. In practice it doesn't change the overall ratio much (multiplying by 0.95 on both sides) but the diagram should be consistent.

The BEV cost not adjusting with the electricity slider is a bug, not a choice. I'll fix both. Thanks.


AutoCAD is the easiest example to pick. Fire the draftsmen and hire for AutoCAD.

We must join with him, we must join with Sauron.

Sauron might win, don't want to risk being on the wrong side of the post-apocalypse

Just because you're on Sauron's side when it wins, doesn't mean you'll be on Sauron's side at any other point in the future.

One of the things I find interesting about classifying literally any kind of trait within bounds of 'normality', and the culling / suppressing / discouragement of anything outside of that definition, is that there will just be new 'edges', and in short order these edges will be 'other', suddenly outside the definition because times are bad and it has to be someone's fault.

And so an ad infinitum until the single supreme ruler is the one entity representative of normal, atop a mountain of dead abominations.


> One of the things I find interesting about classifying literally any kind of trait within bounds of 'normality', and the culling / suppressing / discouragement of anything outside of that definition, is that there will just be new 'edges'

There is a general rule I've discovered many years ago, through playing EVE ONLINE and learning understanding how society works. Not the modern EVE ONLINE, the old EVE ONLINE. It was really good for that.

Every new generation grows up with a new norm. Whenever hardship or challenges are being removed, then the new generation, having never needed to learn how to deal with them, will have a lower tolerance of them in general.

Your "new edges" generally aren't actually new. They've always been there. It was just that nobody really cared, because they weren't the end of the world: People knew worse.

It's a self-destructive downwards spiral.
