I would assume that many/most countries in climates where power interruptions quickly turn into deaths to avoid building in a dependence on an extra-territorial grid for base-level power supply.
It's already a problem in Eurasia with nation states using eg. natural gas delivery as a means to apply political pressure on other states, and this while it is still (relatively) easy to solve energy needs as carbohydrates can be easily transported.
If all border crossing energy/power delivery is through a physical network of cables, adapting if delivery is cutoff would be almost impossible unless all gas/coal/oil plants were kept at/near operating condition.
Hence, yes, the buildout must be some X times necessary power, as much as possible locally. A significant fraction of that generated power should be used to create
a) industrial feedstock
b) to generate liquids/gas that can be easily used and transported.
The latter in the case some nation is being pressured by energy blockades where the existing grid can not supply enough energy through transmission lines from other bordering states.
If it is Prometheus' fire, we are not ready to handle that fire yet. When one of the core concerns of using a technology is to prevent it being used to create weapons capable of obliterating entire cities, we are not as a species mature enough to use it on a wider scale. This is only one example of why we are not ready yet.
Nuclear (fission) technology is not the problem, we are the problem. Looking at the recent history of political leadership all over the world, and the baffling level of support even the most immature of policies have, it's clear we have a ways to go. Most people doesn't even seem to realize that as a species we've only just emerged, we're so young. Toddlers on any timescale but the most naïve and short sighted.
Not in a "wow this is fantastic", rather the opposite. Old sorrows surfaces, forgotten experiences had to be dealt with, but I was finally able to start moving forward and deal with the reality outside myself.
It's hard to explain, but now I am growing older, not only my body as it used to be.
Stimulants are not always necessary long term, but they usually are to start effecting enough change to be able to function in the present society.
For some (me probably) it'll be a lifelong thing, but it definitely doesn't have to be for everyone!
I'm happy for your success!
I really wish I had access to more talk therapy, physiotherapy, guided relaxation, mindfullness'ish sessions, and some other forms of support. The medicine helps me to stay mostly functioning, but with talking to a therapist and practicing "basal body knowledge" I was feeling so much better!
A typical characteristic of people with ADHD is that typical doses of - say Ritalin - creates no euphoric effect at all.
Every adult I met that is "on" stimulants has echoed the sentiment that they don't understand why on earth anyone would take them recreationally. Ergo, they don't feel euphoria, because then it would certainly be obvious why.
If you get euphoria from those doses, well then what you suffer from is probably not typical ADHD.
My story is the same, blown off by doctors for years because, I don't know, but not being "too successful" was definitely part of it.
Lead to a burnout-like state that started developing while basically being a stay-at-home dad for a year or so. It got worse, and now there are several years of my daughter growing up that I don't remember almost anything from.
In Sweden at least it is classified as a disability, because whether or not it's a evolutionary adaptation, people that present typical ADHD traits are functionally disabled in modern society. Society should change to accommodate these traits, but we can't expect people with those traits to live in misery until then.
Also don't forget that drugs have changed the life to the better for so many on the ADHD spectrum.
Though drugs are only part of the solution for most people with ADHD, it's almost always what enables other kinds of intervention to be effective.
For me, medication doesn't work too well. I tolerate it just fine, but it just isn't as effective as for most people.
It has still changed my life completely. I can accrue life experience in a way that was impossible before, probably as I had basically no perception of time before medication.
Maybe my daughter put it best when she (on her own volition) got diagnosed at 17'ish: "It great to not have to feel like you are going to die tomorrow." With which she meant that when you perceive time passing, you can also perceive the future ahead.
It's not the only thing that changed, and not all change has been easy. But the diagnosis has still been one of the most important things in my life, even getting it as late as at 36 years.
It's probably doing some equivalent of solving a hard inverse problem approximately using numeric method, likely with as lest as many unknowns per pixel as the image, in a noisy domain, and with an expensive cost function for the optimization.
Not saying they are doing exactly that, but something in that realm/scale. 100kOps per pixel is really not that much in those kind of problems.
While the wording isn't particularly clear, the later remarks contrasting full-width with full-screen makes it clear that full-width in this instance does not refer to the full-width of the screen, but only that the "widest" responsible layout is used.
Compared to a children's book it is both, but compared to a lot of other TV-series with similar audiences, not at all.
As the context is a bit unclear, I don't thing there's a straight cut answer here, but perhaps it's not unreasonable to think it's in comparison to the other literary work involved in the suit. With that other work being a essentially children's book, Star Trek - in comparison - is all those things.
Single photon detectors have existed for a long timet - though not anywhere near those speeds afaik - hence the one bit part is not particularly strange, not as long as we're talking wavelengths close to visible light.
The speed and ultra low noise seems spectacularly good, but then, if you can avoid electronics and heat+junction noise in preamp you're going to get good figures.
It's almost certain several people did, but either didn't get a response, or - infinitely more likely - that the seed used for the icon was simply never recorded.
Found the timeline. Yes several people asked, and no, Mojang did not have any records.
According to the tagged union Wikipedia you referenced, a disjoint union is also considered a tagged union. Whether or not that's actually a correct description within the vernacular of computer science, I don't know.
"In computer science, a tagged union, also called a variant, variant record, choice type, discriminated union, disjoint union, sum type or coproduct, ..."
Apple decided that /anaconda was an illegal place to store files during an update, so not only did I have a mysterious upgrade who took a very long time (hours) even on SSD, I also lost half a day when I needed to run some calculations for my client, as my Anaconda (python data science etc) was broken. The latter happened just the other week.
A few years ago, Windows mistook my root/system partition for the boot partition, which it helpfully "cleaned" by removing ALL executable files. Don't remember the trigger for that one.
Another Mac OS X update broke my Samsung color laser + scanner. A few years ago, still broken. Recently the scanner was broken by another update. At first it was only the printer.
I'm sure there are more, but thos were the first I could recall.
San Fransisco has one of the highest, and in some cases - highest - housing and rental prices in the US.
If taxes are as high as you claim, it would be more rational to argue that the high prices are indirectly caused by that tax, rather than prices being held down by taxes.
Several causes seems more likely for a change in inventory, or pricing.
An extremely high cost of housing and the consequently smaller than average living spaces, which people are spending more time in due to covid has probably led some people to re-evaluate their priorities. It has in less heated markets.
Increased possibilities of remote work even in tech companies traditionally against it, and as tech drives SF, this is going to affect a majority of people living there.
Expectations of recession due to one of 1) covid 2) some of the giants getting pushback from an administration that is fickle at best 3) new competition from non US companies in driving markets, eg TikTok 4) ... and more.
There are plenty of somewhat plausible reasons to get out of the highest priced housing market in the US, especially if you can't handle a significant downturn in prices.
You could argue taxes too, if the market prices were average, or below average, but in the current situation any economic sensitivity is caused by an overheated housing market, nothing else can even touch the force of a market as hot as the SF one.
However, if a market with 1/4 the inventory of NY increase its inventory, even when it's with about 100%, one really can't tell anything. It's the hottest of the hot markets that's cooled down a little, and it doesn't really tell anything yet, except that the market has changed somehow.
