What
Vscodium. Anything else (ESPECIALLY VIM, SO DON'T TELL ME TO USE VIM) makes my brain want to eject itself into the 37th dimension to look for Nirvana and the true purpose of life.
Keynesian economics is a macroeconomic theory of total spending in the economy and its effects on output, employment, and inflation. It was developed by British economist John Maynard Keynes during the 1930s in an attempt to deal with the effects of the Great Depression.
The central belief of Keynesian economics is that government intervention can stabilize the economy. Keynes’ theory was the first to sharply separate the study of economic behavior and individual incentives from the study of broad aggregate variables and constructs.
Based on his theory, Keynes advocated for increased government expenditures and lower taxes to stimulate demand and pull the global economy out of the Depression.
Subsequently, Keynesian economics was used to refer to the concept that optimal economic performance could be achieved—and economic slumps could be prevented—by influencing aggregate demand through economic intervention by the government.
Keynesian economists believe that such intervention can result in full employment and price stability.
Have u tried making peanut milk at home? It doesn't take more than 10 min and is incredibly underrated.
How about self driving buses?
Trains are really cool, but not ideal for low traffic conditions + areas requiring a lot of route flexibility. We definitely should build a lot more trains/trams than what were building right now, but self driving buses will still have a very large use case.

Yep
Hmm, now that you said it, I'm not sure if the servers are in Estonia. The main admin though @sunaurus@lemm.ee is Estonian.
It's Estonian. However, it does federate with American instances. This means, that all your content that you post gets stored in American instances too.
Think of it like this: let's say you had an American follower on Instagram that always saved all your posts. You might be able to completely delete your data from Instagram. What this one user does with your data is however, beyond your control.
Oh I agree 100%. But remember, you don't need automobile manufacturing just to manufacture private vehicles. You need it for buses, commercial vehicles (like actual commercial pickups) and so on.
With self driving tech becoming production ready, we'll likely see a huge boost in self driving buses, smaller vans and so on to provide high frequency public transit to low density areas.
We need an automobile industry for that in Canada.
Why would it cost more energy to accelerate the same load on a linear path than on a circular path?
I didn't say that. I said that you would need to input a lot of energy in much less time.
Now, how would you do that in a linear acceleration system? Well, you would need an unimaginably large capacitor bank if you're going the electrical route. Or, you could use chemical fuels, but then stuff would get way more complicated as you would have to deal with plumbing (if you're using fluids), reliable detonation, etc.
In this case, you're just storing all that energy in the carbon fiber hand, which basically is a flywheel.
And why do you assume the time has to be minimal? You can make the rail quite long, kilometers long in fact.
All acceleration that a payload would receive is when it's in the gun. So let's say, the first 100m give it a 1000g acceleration. But, when it enters the next 200m, it's already going very fast. Therefore, it would spend very less time in the next 100m section. Thus, the payload would get WAAAAAY less acceleration.
This means, that you get diminishing returns in terms of initial velocity as your gun increases in length.
Another issue is that you would be able to launch stuff in one direction only. What if I want to launch in polar orbit? I would need to build another km long gun in that direction. Compare this to spin launch, where you could quite easily point the launch apparatus in whatever direction you want to launch in.
My current jerk off fantasy is that the EU and Canada bring in very strict regulations for data privacy, that completely fuck over American tech's ad driven business models. This would boost the fediverse like crazy + destroying American tech (which is a HUGE chunk of their economy)
