For batteries, GWh is the correct unit though (storage). Just not for panels/generators/etc.

To be honest, that might just be SeaTac on a Thursday. Everything's under construction and the late night arrivals has been crowded for a while now.

This was a really cool deep dive into various optimizations that apply specifically to voxel-based games.

I especially enjoyed how the author packed progressively more information into the bits of a single integer using some clever tricks, and it stayed approachable the whole time even for those who don’t do a lot of low level bitwise optimizations in their day to day (me)

I think you both mean "conscience"

And this argument is just whataboutism - sure we can do better everywhere but that doesn't mean the Chinese government gets a pass

From the first bullet point under 'features':

> asdf-compatible - rtx is compatible with asdf plugins and .tool-versions files. It can be used as a drop-in replacement.

Re: [1] - I was interested in how this worked so I read the article, here's a quote:

"The 55-year-old electrical troubleshooter ignored his financial planner's advice, keeping 100 percent of his 401(k) money invested in Enron stock. He purchased more Enron shares with his savings and annual bonus"

"In addition to contributing the maximum 15 percent to their 401(k) funds, the Stevenses were buying $600 a month in Enron stock. Cathie Stevens, who had been so poor as a teenager that she picked strawberries for clothing money, even flipped her annual bonus money back into the purchase of Enron options."

Not sure who you're really blaming for people "retiring with nothing" if they put all their eggs in one basket like that, against experts' advice.
