Great video on the theory: https://youtu.be/Ado90kMT_FM

Have people (smarter than me) come up with a good equation - or at least heuristic - to determine what inventions are morally good?

I suppose it'd be from a utilitarian perspective?

Ex: My gut feeling is nitrogen fixing would rank "low" on "terminal ecological impact" against "positive benefits to humanity"; the Vinyl resurgence would be around the middle; private jets for the Epstein class would the highest etc.

My hobby horse is the lack of a “modern” filesystem on obsd.

Without journaling I really don’t agree with the oft repeated claims it makes a good “router”.

Any networking gear I’ve used is treated as an appliance and I don’t want an unfortunate power outage causing data loss.

If I recall correctly, I was obsessed with the PBS show "Cyberchase" and had Googled the main antagonists name "Hacker" which lead to me HackForums.

It ended up being a very significant influence on my computing career!

> I went to urgent care a few months ago to get tested for COVID and two other flu strains and it came out to almost $500.

They have at-home COVID+Flu tests are my local CVS for $35, why go to an urgent care?

I enjoy a local Pittsburgh bakery Mancini's. That's my benchmark for "good bread", I've never been to Europe though.

Jacob's Ladder (1990) is one I'm thinking of too.

Nostr is basically this.

It's a cool idea, in practice it kind of sucks as an experience.

It's been developed adjacent to the Bitcoin community and I can't say there's much going on besides spam.

Perhaps ATProto vs. ActivityPub will been seen as the Fediverse's East-West Schism.

Instead of decrees over the "filioque" we get blog posts about the definition of "federation" where both parties talk past each other.

..as opposed to other green energy programs that received no government investment?

...or the externality-free fossil fuel industry?

I never experienced but I've heard universities used to have the best curated radio stations.

> There's also many independent internet radio stations or music podcasts these days which can be launched for little money, don't require a broadcasting license and can be listened to from any place in the world.

Indeed - radioparadise.com is a quite nice Internet Radio
