The Loongson 3 devices are hard to get, although apparently you can get them from China; the 2f devices are slow and a wierd version of mips, dont recommend.

The easy to obtain cheap Cavium is the erlite-3 but it has the most non standard usb which means you are pretty much stuck with a tiny amount of storage.

Soft cores are a bit slow, although have seen CHERI running and it is cool. (Risc-V runs NetBSD, at least partial port, not FreeBSD yet).

So there is no useful easily obtained dev device for under $200 (although Imagination did seem helpful on twitter on helping get stuff).
Now we have Rust and Go for that. Unlike you, I won't miss them when they're gone.
Hydrogen is not simply a drop-in for petrol, like LPG/Natural gas. It is considerably more challenging to store and pump, and its infrastructure is orders of magnitude harder to install than electric charging points.
The major difference is that with a keypad you can type at your own pace, while with a dial you have to 1) wait 2) a variable amount of time for the rotary to go back in initial position for each figure. Furthermore keypads allow "muscle memory". I'm not old enough to have used extensively rotary dials but I think it's very hard to form muscle memory with rotary dials. As an aside, I don't think the difference in speed the two is "tiny".

No we don't. We need solar and batteries that can provide "car charging" for free or almost free, like what Tesla is doing for Model S.

Also, nuclear is not perfectly clean either. The reactor may produce clean energy, but everything else that is needed to power it and maintain it is not clean energy.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned felt tip pens as an alternative to fountain pens.

The Paper Mate medium point felt tip pen is my favorite writing tool. It provides a good-looking and effortless stroke and you can buy them pretty much anywhere.
In the UK you can get a government grant for 75% of the install cost of a domestic charge point; there are also a growing number of public chargepoints (1400 now, increasing to 6000 in a couple of years), and workplace garages often have them; urban gas stations are mostly closing for commercial reasons (redevelopment).
For programmer art that looks not bad at all!
With photovoltaics the production of electricity doesn't usually exceed the demand at night... So to charge cars at night you still need another technology for base load.

Statistically speaking, more users get owned via web browsers than via native apps, and that is unlikely to change if people keep on adding new APIs to web browsers because every time a new API is added to my web browser, every web site I visit gets a chance to use the new API to try to own me.

I certainly understand why developers and others find it convenient and profitable to keep on adding APIs the client part of the global client-server document-publishing platform, but I am simply amazed to come across someone using security of all things as an argument or a justification for doing it.

Think about what you are saying! You have a new API you want to make available to developers, but of course it is really hard to create an API that cannot be exploited, so to keep things as secure as possible, every time the user needs to check the weather forecast, look at the new photos of the grandkids or look for a new recipe, some random web server plus zero-or-more third-party ad servers should get a crack at exploiting the new API!

Ask HN: A way for me to catalog terabytes of digital assets
I am looking for something that allows me to index and tag huge folder structures. Preferable with the ability of cross relationships between nodes in the file structure.

I've found this topic from before last year (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7542144), where a good idea on a principal solution to a similar problem was discussed. I wonder if there is any news on the current state of the art solutions.

I've looked at some Digital Assets Management (DAM) Software out there, but it did not all suite me. They are either cloud based (remote on others machines), have only limited support for collection types (movies, music, photos) - I want to be free in the categorisation) - or hardly any support for an initial full import with structuring based on the current file structure (metadata to be added manually by me later when needed).

Preferably for OS X, or even better web based to be hosted on a remote machine (FreeBSD). A command line interface for tagging/metadata management would make it perfect.

In France everyone uses ballpoints, and yet everyone writes cursive, so I very much doubt there's any connection between the two.

The weird handwriting of Americans certainly has to do with how they're taught, not what they use.

I have three kids that are currently learning to write (aged 6, 7 and 10) and a great deal of time is spent forming nice, cursive letters (copying lines of frequent letter pairs to lean how to join them properly and nicely for example).

I'm not saying this is good or bad (I like cursive and am happy my kids are learning it, but would like they would also learn to touch type, which isn't taught in school), but I am saying that you write how you learned to write...

Can anyone explain (in layman-like terms) how one goes about transporting a single photon over a distance of 1.3km? I really like to have a general idea of the technology involved.

I am not sure I follow this moral stance vs nature. My computer is able to calculate billions of operations per second. That's more powerful than what the most brilliant mathematicians of the middle age could ever achieve. Should I feel guilty to use all that might to watch kitty videos on youtube? Everything we do has a cost on nature. When I eat a burger, a cow has to go. When I build a house, I don't want any bug or rodent in there. Yes tigers are heading toward extinction but guess what, I don't want to have to live with them when I walk in the countryside, so they will have to stay in zoos or national parks. To me the limit on pollution is to ensure that we do not generate a nuisance or hazard for ourselves or our kids. I have no sense of "fairness" vs nature.

The problem of cars in dense urban area has more to do with pollution (which electric cars solve) and space (traffic jams) than morality.
But as a customer I don't know or care how the hydrogen gets there.

There is a lot of misinformation and misinterpretation of what is happening with coal in Germany since the decision to phase out nuclear.

I spent years living in London and I had to find parking on the street often not near my car. Are we really expecting every house to have a power cable running from their house down the street ? Because it sounds dangerous, impractical and hardly an elegant solution for the next generation of automobile power technology.

And again my workplace in London was a big car garage. I don't see how that magically ends up with per bay power with the current chicken/egg situation.
Another very large difference between BEAM and the JVM is that BEAM operates on 'reductions' and when a thread has exhausted it's fair share of reductions another thread is scheduled. So even though the scheduler is not pre-emptive (interrupt based) the effect is very much the same as if it were with less overhead.

I wouldn't say that everyone uses ballpoints, I used fountain pens during most of my education in France and so did most of my classmates. Many (most?) teachers still require their students to use fountain pens (one of the reasons is probably the fact that you can use an eraser, so it makes for cleaner papers...). Even after getting out of school, I don't use ballpoints if I can avoid them, because they're not as fast.

It is now common in London to see electric only parking spaces, with a power bay, on most central London streets and these are increasing in number in the 'burbs too.

You will get a ticket if you put a liquid-fuelled vehicle in those spaces.

Can you quote any source on that ? Last I checked (and that was after this year's budget), there's still a 1.63p/kWh subsidy on domestic solar. Certainly no levee for "taking money from oil producers".
"Fight for your Write” campaign—brought up an fMRI study suggesting that writing by hand may be better for kids’ learning than using a computer."

How about writing by hand ON a computer?

For me is totally stupid to teach kids to type on a keyboard, when in the present and near future you could use other faster and better means for writing, like this speech recognition I am using now or stenotype.

The other day I saw a friend using a new prototype of a new digital stenotype on a maker space and I was sold instantly. This is the future.

But children need to learn how to draw, and train their hands in precise manipulation. If you lose handwriting training when you are kid you also lose the ability of doing precise work with your hands as your brain will prune the neural connections with your hand as you don't use it.

You can do that on a computer. Today we have affordable galaxy notes. I use an expensive Cinqiq, that will become much more affordable in the future. Training kids looking at the rear mirror makes no sense to me.

Then how come we haven't seen a single "gas station with a hydrogen noozle" so far, but only specialized and very expensive "hydrogen stations"?

If anything it's the electricity infrastructure that already exists, and you only need chargers installed, which are far cheaper than hydrogen stations - which is why we're already seeing thousands of EV chargers across the US and only a handful of hydrogen stations.

Your computer consumes barely no energy (in Joules). I'm not making a generalized abstract comparison, I'm making an energy consumption comparison.

When you eat a 10th of a cow per year (200g/day), you consume the same energy as one seat in a Paris-NYC flight, and the same energy as necessary to heat a house for a year, and the same energy as the Earth produces per year, per inhabitant. So, choose only one of those ;)

It's not about saving tigers, kitties, noise or morality. It's that the Earth doesn't produce that much energy, so we're not in a stable situation on the long term.

There are "footprint comparators" that you might have seen on the Internet: A European has a footprint of 2.5, which means it requires 2.5 Earths of wheat fields and uranium mines to feed, cloth and house everyone like a European. It takes 6 Earths to nurture someone like in the US.

So we can only sustain this pace of spending resources as long as we keep others poor (aka as long as Middle East/China/Asia don't enter into a consumtpion society). That's where I claim: We may have to take part with our cars in the future and therefore we'd better build our cities so that we don't need to move around that ton of metal per person.

The side effects of emitting CO2, nuclear waste, wars in the Middle East or costing an unsuspected cost through taxes are just different forms of the same constraint, which can be studied through energy consumption in Joules per inhabitant.

Cool Kids Are Using Java: Adam Bien's Weblog
I think there's a demand for EV cars, not just "clean cars". Hydrogen cars won't give you maximum torque from the moment you press the pedal, complete silence, or the improved efficiency in using modern "smart" technologies in an EV compared to using them in a hydrogen car (the electronics can use the electricity directly from the battery, while with gas and hydrogen cars it has to be converted).

Another point that's very important, is that every single hydrogen car I've seen so far looks either dumb or ridiculous. It's been true for most EVs, too, so far, which makes me wonder if they do it on purpose to sell few models and then say "there's no demand for clean cars" or something. Fortunately Tesla came along and showed everyone else you can actually sell a "normal" looking EV car.
The recruiter I talked to is a technical recruiter under the company payroll. Not an external recruiter.
The limitations of hydrogen powered fuel cell vehicles are grossly underestimated by many (layfolk) who espouse the technology.

Storing hydrogen is difficult, it will leak out of steel and embrittle the steel.

The biggest drawback, as it stands today, and quoted from the article you linked is this:

"You won't even go 100 miles on current tech hydrogen tanks that are still safe to carry around in a car."

However, some of the drawbacks could very well be the reasons hydrogen wins out. Again, quoted from the article you linked:

"Even though a HFC-powered car is essentially an electric car, you get none of the benefits like filling it up with your own power source, using it as a smart grid buffer, regenerating energy during braking, etc."

Those look like good ways to maintain the something similar to the present distribution change.

It'll be interesting to see how this unfolds. People will argue over which is the better technology, but that isn't necessarily going to be the deciding factor.
I honestly don't mean to sound antagonistic, but literally every single point you make is wrong.

> use the same hardware to put it into my car

It is not the same hardware: hydrogen pumps are far more complicated, difficult, and expensive than gasoline pumps. (http://ssj3gohan.tweakblogs.net/blog/11493/why-fuel-cell-car...).

> wait the same amount of time

Hydrogen cars will always have very poor range compared to hydrocarbon-fueled cars. So for the range that you get, you will spend much more time pumping. See the blog-post series above for more on that.

> and pay for it exactly the same way I do today

Because the infrastructure is many times more expensive than petroleum infrastructure -- and this is not just a matter of relative economies of scale, but a fundamental attribute of hydrogen -- you will need to pay much more to recoup those capital costs. Again, read the blog post series above (I'll stop repeating this, but it holds true for every point).

> Only it will be clean.

Only at your tailpipe, which is a false form of cleanliness. Systemically, Hydrogen is dirty. Hydrogen production is spectacularly inefficient. The only remotely efficient way of producing it is to extract it from hydrocarbons -- in which case it would actually be cleaner to generate work by burning the hydrocarbons directly. Truly "clean" methods of hydrogen production (electrolysis of H2O) require copious amounts of electricity, which must come from somewhere, and again would be better used directly, via a battery-electric vehicle. Basically, any energy source which produces hydrogen could be used to directly power a vehicle, and would be 5x-10x cleaner by doing so.

> And I won't involving changing my life to fit my car.

You have already changed your life to fit your car -- by driving to gas stations! Home-charging is a feature, not a bug.

Besides, if you really want to drive to a remote location to get a complete top-up of your range -- that's what battery-swap is for. Battery-swap stations are far cheaper to build than hydrogen filling stations, and can give you more range, more quickly, than hydrogen pumping. And they are truly clean, not imaginarily clean.

I think the major issue is that we prioritise roads for cars. When I was in Orlando, Fl., we tried crossing the junction near our hotel on foot and gave up and drove. We need to prioritise walking, then cycling, and then driving. Segregating each form of transport is key. In the USA, putting roads onto a "road diet" is easier in many cases due to the size of the lanes you have. http://gizmodo.com/what-the-heck-is-a-road-diet-1727066519
