  • Any feature relying on a willing cooperation of every node in the network is impossible to enforce.

    Sure, it should be attempted, but don’t expect it to actually matter against actors that just don’t give a fuck.

  • we age due to our telemere buffer shortening

    Telomere shortening is a marker and there is a correlation, but aging is a process that happens on multiple levels and many of those aren’t fixable by DNA restoration.

    We experience wear and tear, we accumulate damage, we accumulate waste, we lose body parts, we constantly fuse our bones together, we have body parts that grow surrounded by tissues capable of maintaining them but then operate outside of them, the list goes on.

    But most importantly, death is such a beneficial feature, that it outcompeted everything else. Producing new generation of individuals regularly is a simple and terrifyingly effective solution to a vast array of problems. Many aspects of aging can be seen as adaptations to inevitability of procreation and death.

    That aside, I like pointing people at professor Michael Levin’s work. Be very skeptical, as it’s a small field in a world that goes through reproducibility crisis, but it does fill me with a cautious hope.

  • https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sergei_Magnitsky

    His death was the moment when Russian state dropped any pretense of being civilized.

    It’s also roughly the time when Russia has pivoted from “let’s trade” narrative towards “don’t encroach on our turf” threats. Prior to that there was at least an effort to put on makeup on the Europe facing ass cheek.

  • Well, IIRC it’s not indirectly. Sam Altman negotiated pre-purchase of massive chunk of wafer supply, which OpenAI backs up with its virtual money.

    So DRAM manufacturers are facing a wafer shortage in near future. Which translates into prices now.

  • How many Neovim plugins is too many

    Jump

  • Using single vim.pack.add() call to load all necessary plugins at once and later configure in a series of require() calls

    How about not using require for configuration at all? Although I wouldn’t expect it from this particular author - he shoves require().setup even into plugins that literally have nothing to configure and should just work.

    The whole thing is a remnant of an old misinformed plugin template repository made by someone with no knowledge of vim startup sequence.

  • Heracleum sosnowskyi in Ukraine. Fucking commies decided to start seeding it en-masse for cow feed without even checking whether it would work.

    It bitters the milk, making it unusable as feed. It is poisonous and hybridizes with native edible species. Skin contact results in horrible blisters that tend to not heal cleanly. Its juice is toxic and mutagenic.

    A war crime in plant wrapping.

  • Soviet development that was driven purely by economic considerations tends to have all the issues of modern development. Well, except car centric planning, but we know why that wasn’t a consideration ever.

    Apartment complexes that didn’t focus just on economy, tended to be way better. And that is missing from modern considerations almost always.

    Still, there’s a reason pre-Soviet areas to this day remain some of the most sought out ones.
