If by the wealth you mean land, then yes it's finite. But the ownership of man-crafted things is not. You can always create new apps or websites that generate values. Those man-crafted things can become useless someday…
This is definitely a problem worth more innovations. But it should be kept in mind that the core idea of coming up with such a model is literally to design a contract. By recognizing that, it becomes evident that the…
It can be seen as an energy storage technology for renewables.

In my opinion, `git add -p` should be the default, and a `-a` or alike to forcibly commit the entire working tree. I have developed a habit that I wouldn't feel comfortable if I haven't reviewed the chunks I am going to…
That risk assessment assumes only the technical aspects. But there are still institutional, management and other 'people' issues that could render any engineering guarantee fruitless. Otherwise, the delivery of nuclear…
As far as I know, China's grid and power plants are not run by the government either.
Has anyone read Schopenhauer's books like The world as will and representation? His idea doesn't seem to be talked about much. However, I would admit that I don't fully comprehend the ideas of that book either.
I recently realized that there are roughly two kinds of people, namely people who are good at symbolic/abstract ideas and people who are good at real/physical/touchable things, which can be considered orthogonal to the…
That assumes the demand and the supply are independent variables. More people would mean smaller pieces if the size of the pie held constant. But what if there are also fewer people making the pie? In reality, it's even…
That would probably be true if all other conditions held constant. However, Silicon Valley can pay handsome money because many companies located there run well and outperform their competitors for a fertile global…
My point is not about how an individual player gets their enjoyment from the game. Some players would want to beat every other to the death, even in the real world. My point is individual player tends to complain how…
Imagine that we are designing an MMORPG world. We know that individual player would seek to maximize their "gains" and to advance their ranking in the game as a part of the gaming experience. Meanwhile, as the game…
If "the business interests of the upper class" makes governments do all the evils, why do you think this time will be different?
I learned that Git stores data as DAG at the very beginning when introduced to it. But I came to get clicked until I realized that it is not only a DAG but an immutable one. That is, existing nodes of the DAG are never…
Comparing nuclear waste with other waste like those from manufacturing solar panels does not help. You don't need to build the facilities like the Yucca Moutain Project to contain the waste from making silicon chips.…
Monorepo could be a decent choice if your software stack does not require too much external dependencies. Or more precisely, the ratio of own code to the third-party code is reasonably high. Let me give a concrete…
When talking about "efficient communication" between the computer and the programmer, it does not necessarily imply the characteristics of the runtime performance. For instance, Fortran is very performant in numerical…
C is a language designed to enable more efficient communication between the computer and the programmer in mind. C++ is a language designed to enable more communication between the compiler and the programmer. Go is a…

You probably underestimate the mindset difference between the American's skepticism toward the government (as this thread shows) and how the Chinese tend to see their government as a parental role. When a U.S company…
Both Chinese and Americans can protest about the US government's scandals on an internet forum hosted on the US, not the other way around though.
You reasoning misses an important aspect: the incentives. Does China government have the incentives to take the advantages when it has the opportunity? Does Huawei have the incentives/disincentives to/not to respond to…
The difference is when the US government does something nasty, it's relatively transparent and accountable. It is not the case for the China government.
Does it also imply that a non-blocking event loop in the userspace application is energy-inefficient? Likewise, given that some OSes APIs (syscalls) provide both non-blocking and blocking modes, should we prefer the…
