In Finland, some stores might stash eggs in refridgerated sections but overwhelmingly they're kept in room temperature. Salmonella is virtually non-existent in Finland. Eggs can generally be consumed even raw. That is because of a special stricter-than-usual control of poultry and egg production which effectively means that only Swedish and Danish eggs meet the import standards. Yet no eggs are imported to Finland anyway and the country is actually a net exporter.

Firefox presents this message, but it's unreliable and doesn't always present itself. I've already been used to an Alt+Left/Right binding [1] for navigation for at least a year in Firefox thanks to re-binding addons [2]. Backspace was both further away and too annoying in situations where input would lose focus (which can happen, and invisible/near-invisible focus styling on various input fields doesn't help). Chrome has always kept customization on lock-down, so this change to reduce such errors isn't surprising to be honest.

[1] I use a half-size keyboard, where Fn+WASD is mapped to the arrow keys for one handed navigation.

[2] keyconfig and KeySnail are both ones to check. The latter allows for key sequences to be bound to hotkeys (eg: typing 'pin' outside of an input to pin a tab), similar to Opera Presto's mnemonic keybindings ability but not quite as powerful.
I should have clarified: the case is sufficiently obvious that there are a bunch of illustrations of how long (subjectively) it would take to travel various distances at 1g constant acceleration.

Ah, there's a Wikipedia article: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_travel_using_constant_...

And a chart of subjective and observer times to various landmarks: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f5/Roundtri...

It takes a while to get going. For round-trip subjective travel times, Prox. Centauri is about 7 years. Galactic center about 42. Andromeda Galaxy, 50 years. Edge of the observable universe, 100 years.

Mind, the folks you left behind would be up nights waiting slightly longer. About 15 years to Prox. Centauri, rather longer to some of the remoter destinations.

Aside from the huge problems correlated with income inequality for which evidence and reasoning are readily available if you look, there's a basic problem with the idea that something like inequality could be a net good despite what people tend to think... it's that because the majority of people, who are on the losing side of inequality, despise inequality and that is already leading to huge political ruptures, populism, depression, demoralizing feelings of injustice, etc etc etc. (There are related basic problems with focusing only on "metrics".)

Toothpaste is heavily branded in a health related fashion that makes it hard for hotels to get away with fake botique and paying for a real brand risks offending users of a "higher" or competing brand. Then there are also the foreign patrons who will find local brands funny at best.

This is notable in that the one hotel that carried toothpaste felt they had to say which brand. (They were right, I once stayed at a hotel with generic foreign toiletries and only the toothpaste triggered ill ease: wondering whether potentially tainted toothpaste or skipping toothpaste was the higher risk.) But they had also chosen the wrong brand if they have foreign patrons as aquafresh has very little presence abroad.

Although eggs are displayed on a (non-refrigerated) shelf in UK supermarkets, if you look at the egg carton, they all state the eggs should be refrigerated after purchase.

Presumably this is because eggs stay fresher longer in a cool environment and keeping them in the fridge is the easiest way to do this if you don't have some other cool storage space?

John McAfee Declares War on Kim Dotcom Over Megaupload 2.0
Income inequality in itself isn't bad. I can argue that a certain amount of it is desirable even.

The problem is more the difference in quality of life and opportunity. This is a problem even if the base quality of life is generally improving. If the folks at the bottom are continually stressed about money, if they have shelter, food, power, etc, it is bad. If the folks at the bottom cannot get access to the things that basic society thinks they should have - internet, cell phone, transportation and decent clothing, it is bad.

If one simply cannot afford education, regardless of intelligence, because of simple money or knowing they'd not be able to ever pay off the loan with a teacher's salary, it is pretty bad.

And those are the things that really matter - if one can have a comfortable (though sparse) life at the bottom, and if one can actually work or try to improve their situation. Unfortunately in the US, a lot of folks are bound by circumstance. Their circumstances - such as bad health, whether or not they have children, not making enough to afford transportation, or even their parents' circumstance - determines their opportunity. Yet if they don't have the opportunity, or circumstances tend to be unlucky for years, they might never climb out. They are stuck at a miserable bottom.

And it seems that countries that have transcended this also tend to have less income inequality. And the bottom isn't nearly as horrible as it is in the US - and you still have some opportunity. It can likely be solved without reducing the inequality, but I'm not sure exactly How do do this.

Plenty of eggs are sold in room temperature in both Norway and Sweden. And neither country utilizes refrigerated transports, so there is no unbroken cold chain.

No, I don't think you can, bugs notwithstanding. A "link" (§3.130) is what POSIX calls a directory entry.

The "standard" (POSIX) doesn't talk much about crashing, however if mkdir("a") could destroy "b" – even during a system crash (§3.387), then users would complain.

> So I suspect the real reason hotel's have no toothpaste in the rooms, is most travelers prefer to bring their own.

Indeed, this was my thought too. I suspect that toothpaste is such a necessity that nobody travels without their own. Shampoos, conditioners et al are nice but not necessary and hence less liable to find a place in the backpack.

The hotels must have observed the unused toothpaste tubes and simply removed the item from their inventory to cut down the costs.

>Shouldn't it be a law that any research done with public dollars should be made available to the public for free? Any costs associated with the publishing should be built into the funding.

If you like. How much do you think that would cost, though? Typically journals charge about $2000 to make a paper open-access.

Now, given that extra research funding won't just magically appear, what we're basically saying is that less research should be funded, just so that it can be hypothetically read by the small minority of people who wish to read it and yet aren't connected to a research institution and can't be bothered going to their local university library to arrange access.

"Ah", you say, "but at least the university libraries would save money because they'd no longer have to pay for all those journal subscriptions". Well, except they would, because of the rest of the world, and also because of all the locally-funded research which was published before this hypothetical new law came into effect.

It doesn't necessarily follow that just because research is publically funded that it should be publically available. Many things that are publically funded are not publically available, which is why I can't take a ride in an Air Force plane whenever I feel like it. Publically funded things are funded for specific purposes, which may or may not be served by making it publically available.

I haven't used Alpine, but did use Pine for a while (also elm, mail, whatever the standard VMS client was, and some others).

I quit using Pine for the usual reason: it was nonfree and not bundled. My first alternative was Netscape Mail (actually fairly decent, threaded, which helped). Then got into mutt.

Mutt is just ... more power-user than Pine, I guess. The ability to tag and pipe messages or headers into shell tools is hugely useful. Wnat to get a summary of messages by sender, subject, or parse bodies on the fly to give some simple stats or graphics? That's doable as a shell one-liner from mutt.

(MH is another option and probably even more amenable to scripting tricks -- see Larry Peeks book on the topic.)
Frankly, pushing limits in uninteresting if you don't understand what they are actually pushing and towards what - I think very few people can understand the intricasies of majority of the events.

It's really a poor excuse for nations to come together if no-one cares. Football is popular all the time, nearly everywhere - it's much more organic as a global come-together-watch-together event.

I can't personally understand the interest in sports beyond the personal experience - i.e. if one has familiarity in any skill or discipline it's incredibly enticing to observe true masters performance - but I do value in the philosophical sense the fact that all cultures come at the same playing field and speak the same language and share the same context in the form of the sport.
Systemd is to sysvinit what Linux was to Hurd and other microkernels.

Sure, it’s theoretically monolithic, but you can replace modules, and it just works.

And "s6 "unit files" are just the command to daemonize the process, in most cases" is a horrible solution, too.

The reason systemd unit files are so awesome is because they’re simple configuration, not having to string complicated commands together.

I configure the user it’s run under, the context, the syslog identifier for stdout, etc.

It all just works.

That’s the big thing.

I suspect that this is a question of energy. At high energies, it's difficult/impossible to stop a particle, so you place a row of scintillators out, bend the charged particle path using a magnetic field and measure its displacement (and thus velocity and thus energy).

At lower energies, you can stop the particle in, e.g. an NaI detector which is known as calorimetry. Typically, of course, cosmic rays are quite high energy and given the low rate of muon interaction calorimetry is difficult/impossible. A HEP physicist may use both techniques, e.g. by using heavy-metal plates to cause an EM cascade and measure the resultant shower in a crystalline detector. But typically when one talks of scintillator devices (and almost certainly in the case of cosmic rays) one talks of tracking and measuring deflection in magnetic fields if wanting to measure the energy.

Some sort of basic income or a welfare scheme. As someone else mentioned, Australian's out of job get paid $300 or $400 depending on how many kids you have etc and how much savings. This allows the government to make sure that everyone out of a job doesn't go homeless but its not enough to be comfortable so people don't become dependent on it. ( Some people do become dependent on it, its not a 100% unfortunately )

I fully understand one may tax a new successful industry, and then use the proceeds for individual citizens who lose jobs and need some support, training and job programs to help them back on their feet.

But this is ridiculous. The notion an uncompetitive industry, which is fading because ordinary people can and do choose a better product or service, gets money to stay alive with its shittier product, just makes no sense. It doesn't achieve what we want, and there are good alternatives.

Replace the average (mean) with the median and you will have better results in almost all cases.

When the data is good the result ist virtually identical. When there are outliers, the median just ignores them unless there lots of them. When the data is that bad, that the median doesn't work anymore you need to up your statistics quite a few notches.

Ask HN: Next step to take in startup journey?
So I'm in a dilemma, after taking a year out to focus on startup ideas I had been gathering. I think I have struck a golden idea almost got an mvp built but... The small amount of money I had saved has almost run out.

It really feels like the worst time to try and go back and get a job but should I get one and start saving again or try and get some type of seed funding?

The mvp is almost ready and there has been fantastic interest from some great people but I've hit a point now where I'm not sure which way to turn.

As literally it could only take a small amount (2-3k) to be able to keep the focus and ensure I can launch the mvp and then focus on a pitch deck which along with the mvp could get seed.

Any advice would be amazing thanks!

> Over the years, several developers have asked why we're not on GitHub. The perception is that "everybody" is on GitHub, and some developers don't take your project seriously if it's not on GitHub.

This is the sad truth. It doesn't matter anymore if Bitbucket/Gitlab/etc. are better than GitHub: The social pressure for open source projects to move to GitHub is so high that the alternatives don't even stand a chance.

Maybe a meta-search engine for open source projects could help the competition, but if all projects are on GitHub, who would use such a search engine?

P.S.: I actually like GitHub, I'm just sad that all cool changes that GitLab has made recently will end up being mostly ignored by the OSS community. Even if they fixed their speed problem (which I think is their biggest downside compared to GitHub), no project would move there because "everybody is on GitHub".
