> Oh I donno most of the energy going into stovetop ends up as air currents rising to the ceiling and the insulation is pretty good in my sealed oven. Also its very cheap to heat air (compared to water or iron) so it doesn't take much energy to heat that enclosed well insulated oven. I have the EE gear to do it and I'm almost tempted to figure out which takes more KWh, in my infinite spare time.

But you're going to use the oven and the stove, so this seems really inefficient to me. There's also a lot of stamped steel and metal racks inside my oven that has to get to temperature. The oven pulls a lot of electricity into large heating elements and still takes 15 or so minutes to fully pre-heat. I'm not at all sure that heating, say, 20 pounds of steel to 400 degrees is an efficient way to heat a pan.

> If you ever need help cleaning stainless, the powder helps. The thing with scotchbright pads is endless news released explaining that after the first use they have more bacteria than a truck stop bathroom...

I guess I don't believe that. I squeeze my sponges out so they fully dry, and I occasionally send them through the dishwasher. I'm not very concerned about the sanitation of my sponge, especially since I'm cleaning with soap, which should carry any germs off the dishes when I rinse. I'm also not clear what the alternative is. I'm going to scrub my dishes with cotton cloths?

> Teflon is super expensive in the sense of my not being rich enough to shop at walmart. I've been cooking a long time and after throwing out 10 to 20 formerly non-stick pans I bought lifetime SS and CI. So lemme get this straight, I've been buying $50 non-stick pans roughly every year for 20 years thats $1000 of pans sitting in landfills, yet I can buy stainless alclad for only $150 that will last my descendants until at least the year 5000 if not longer? Sign me up! I'm too poor to buy $50 pans I can only afford the $150 pans.

My only problem with teflon durability is other people. I've had $25 teflon pans last for a decade. I've also had $50 teflon pans get ruined after a week from people using metal utensils on my new pans. :(

I have plenty of stainless cookware that I use when it feels appropriate (e.g. searing). I have cast iron as well, but while I'd like it to work well, I've generally not had much luck. I can get it seasoned, but I have trouble getting it clean without destroying the seasoning. I also haven't found it to be nearly as nonstick as teflon unless I use a lot of oil (which I don't actually mind, but my wife does).

Sorry to hear about that experience. You should consider using Scale API (www.scaleapi.com). This is a perfect use case for our data collection API: https://docs.scaleapi.com/#create-data-collection-task
The protest is about the principal ex-communist party (called P.S.D), that won the parliamentary elections two months ago, and then passed a law decriminalizing corruption and freeing their corrupt party members from prison or ongoing cases. People have had enough of corruption and stealing.
And there are alternative JVMs that are specifically designed for that use case that don't behave the same way.

> They might sell the same article to Russia Today, the New York Times, Fox, Al Jazeera, and the Times of India, so they can't cater to one crowd's political biases.

All of that is mainstream news. This whole fake news thing is a part of the cultural war. Religious/Conservative people simply don't trust Mainstream media. To them, all of them are liberal and highly bias. Enough to omit facts for their narratives.

Example: https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2012/05/19/just-another...

Sources, Reports, Officials, Reporters, etc - News is HUMAN god dammit! No such thing as non-bais, and every story should be investigated, and not appeal to the authority of the organization publishing it.
I wanted to read your article, but the design of your blog really sucks. I can hardly read the text, it's quite small. Monospace fonts are great for programming, bad for reading. Animated gifs every 5 lines is really annoying.

Sorry!
Sorry, but that's pretty much impossible. The breakdown products of Teflon don't show up until temperatures at which your eggs would be charcoal.

Teflon will not break down until temperature above 500F 260C - and if you were cooking your eggs that hot you were doing it wrong.

"the left believes Trump just signed an order that banned Muslims"

He did ban Muslims, just not all of them (yet.) And he did talk about banning all Muslims on the campaign.

ITAR is a good reason to keep them apart for now. Do to SpaceX making rockets, they can only hire US citizens and a bunch of other annoying requirements by ITAR are needed to be met.

Its easier to keep the companies separate just from a compliance standpoint as what would otherwise be a minor issue can turn into a hundred million dollar fine (eg: someone accidentally given access to the wrong file server). If everyone in your company is a US citizen its much harder to accidentally create an issue under the eyes of ITAR.
Is this about the rising cost of housing? My understanding is that it has more to do with nimbyism and proposition 13 than just engineering wages pricing out locals. That said, I don't know about the situation in Canada, so maybe someone can shed some light.
Sure it takes a while to load and there's bloat, but the bloat is everywhere now.

On the bad site of the JVM and assorted Java tools is that they are second class citizens of the unix world. The command arguments are all messed up, much like a windows tool ported to unix, and the interaction with the rest of the unix stack like sockets, files are all solipsistic and off, which leaves an ill stink on everything touched by it.

One of the things I find funny with java is the once upon a time much touted security model, fast forward a couple of years and the event of android - using the unix security model and none of the java stuff.

You can literally ask anything.

Want another opinion on something you're thinking about?

Make a task asking people to write in their opinion.

Ask people for domain name ideas. Take two pictures of yourself, ask people which outfit looks better.

Having trouble writing something? Feeling uncreative? Ask people to come up with 3 ideas on some topic. Ask people to re-word a paragraph for you.

On thing to keep in mind is that you can ask for the same task to be done 10 times by 10 different people, and you should reward people when they put in at least a good faith effort. It's a good idea to get redundancy intentionally if the task is somewhat open-ended, as you may not get exactly what you want and want the best of the effort of a variety of people.
Because the price is the same as buying it outright in the long run (assuming you use the newer versions as most do), its at least as good a deal as the outright purchase. For things that create value over the term of ownership, a subscription makes a lot more sense than a large up front cost. We do this model, but with more middlemen & machinations, for just about everything nowadays (houses, cars, student loans, etc.). The only difference is Microsoft isn't screwing you.

The value-add here is that Office comes with cloud storage, really great built-in sync, and a continuous stream of improvement. Amazingly, Office is still getting better, but now improvements are released by the month, not every 3-4 years.

Waymo's safety-related disengages drop to 0.2 per 1000 miles
If (my example) instead of people messaging each other on facebook, every single person needed to run a server (such as an IRC server) at home - no centralization at all. (If five people want to talk to each other, there are a total of 10 connections because 4+3+2+1 to fully connect every node with every other node). That would be an (extreme) example of decentralization, and obviously centralizing chat so I can just use a thin facebook/whatever app is hugely convenient. Likewise the blockchain is a joke, a single $200 pc can trivially do the work of the entire bitcoin network, trivially - if it were centralized. This second example also shows what is meant by control.
So it's a balancing act.
Please do not post deliberately inflammatory sarcasm (a.k.a. troll) like this on Hacker News. Yes, it's difficult to maintain civil and substantive discussion around divisive issues, but we can't just give up entirely!
> The lowest temperature at which nonstick coatings have been reported to kill birds in a peer-reviewed study is 396°F (202°C)

If you want to be fair, you should also quote some numbers for oil. Most oils will kill birds at much lower temperatures.

Which makes Teflon safer than oil.
So I've wondered this. If I use a work computer to update some person code on github or blog or whatever online, outside of business hours.

Does that fall into their equipment or not? I always assumed yes but I can find arguments for either answer.
Nope, same old me, just got into the habit of submitting stories. I did see this for the first time a couple days ago: "Please don't submit so many links at once that the new page is dominated by your submissions." so I've been submitting less often.
I hate to be negative, but am doing so in hopes that the author will improve. I had the same experience. With the animated gifs every paragraph, it gives the feel of being one of those Buzzfeed articles where one has to click through to eleven different pages to see the whole list.

Code Ocean | Junior Developer Advocate | New York City | https://codeocean.com

Code Ocean is a Cornell-Tech startup company on a mission to make scientific code more accessible and reproducible. We're building a cloud-based executable research platform that provides researchers and developers with an easy way to share, discover and run code published in academic journals and conferences.

We are recruiting a Junior Developer Advocate to join our team.

Your main responsibility would be to help users get their code running on our platform in a way that best showcases their research and results. You should be able and eager to quickly familiarize yourself with and dive into any of the following as needed: Python, R, MATLAB/Octave, C/C++, Julia, Lua, Java, shell scripting - whatever we throw at you, really. Don’t worry, we’ve got your back if you get stuck!

Good communication skills are important - you'll be spending a lot of your time interacting with users, holding their hand and encouraging them as they encounter the platform for the first time. Most of them would be academic researchers, so personal familiarity/experience with scientific research and academia in general is a major plus.

To apply please email contact@codeocean.com with the subject "Junior Developer Advocate" and any relevant information.
I guess I was vague - I meant to contrast the "savannah ancestors" fixation of evopsych with considering evolution of humans in the modern era. While normally evolutionary psychology worries about the tens of thousands of years of prehistoric man, the thousands-ish years of drunken modern man would still definitely have an impact.

The problem with this is: Office is pretty much feature complete for most uses, people don't need regular updates to their word processor. Microsoft has even removed quite a few features since the Office 97 days.

Retail Office gets updated about every three years. That's plenty, buying a subscription for Word seems hardly worth it.

Wage Gap Statistics
I don't think it has to do with language (unless by "language" you mean what I mean, in which case sorry for duplicating). I think it has to do with that a lot of what people call "truth" is a product of their opinions, feelings, hopes, desires, etc.

There are facts of course - like such and such event happened or not, such and such statistical data is showing this number of not. But it is never served raw, it is always garnished with opinion. E.g. the fact is that Trump signed certain executive order. But you can say it's "Muslim ban" or "temporary restriction on admittance of nationals from terror-ridden countries". Not the same.

And various "factchecking" sites are fully complicit in this and inject opinion as often as not - to the point exactly the same thing said by two different people can be deemed "mostly true" or "mostly false", moreover, exactly the same thing said by the same person can be "mostly true" and "false".

You can't hope to have robots make sense of it if we can't. You can, of course, build a neural network and train it, but it would just put "robot approved" stamp on biases of whoever trained it.

Jet.com | https://jet.com/ | Hoboken (very close to NYC) | Dublin | Full-time | Onsite

----------

(From our careers page)

We need super smart engineers from all levels to help us build one of the best engineered e-commerce platform in the world (big talk we know, but that is our goal!). Our engineers combine creativity, curiosity, and drive to continuously perfect and revolutionize Jet from the inside out. We are looking to bring more intellectually curious engineers who are passionate about technology in general (Jet is a technology first company and prides itself on its culture of learning and knowledge sharing and we want all our engineers to be as passionate as we are!)

Our platform is largely an event driven platform implemented via a microservice architecture. The platform runs on Microsoft Azure and uses a large number of technologies and middle ware. The bulk of backend code is written in a functional style (F#) and our system of record is an event sourced system (essentially a log of all actions on the platform). We use a mix of Kafka, Redis, Elastic Search, Azure SQL, Event Store and Azure Storage for our data stores. About 50% of the platform runs on Linux and the rest Windows (although we move into more containerization we will see a shift towards Linux).

----------

I've been working at Jet for about a year, and I can honestly say this is the best job I've ever had. It personally checks off every single box I could have a for a dream job:

- Incredible growth. We were the fastest startup to hit a billion dollar valuation, and we just got bought by Walmart for 3.3 billion. With the Fortune 1 at our backs there are some really amazing opportunities and projects that are just getting started.

- Functional programming in F#. Never been more productive coding. And in general we have a very modern tech stack that is a pleasure to work with.

- Tech talks and workshops all the time. I'm learning more than I ever have.

- Extremely competent management. It feels like they really care about employees' happiness here, we've got experienced people at the helm, and it is amazing to see what a company can look like when you have a fantastic management team bringing their A-game. Really, it's incredible to have to try hard to find something to complain about.

- All the trappings of modern startup life. Free gym membership, lots of free food, etc.

We're hiring people of all different types of experience for all different types of roles. More information about specific roles can be found here: https://jet.com/careers . You can apply on the individual role pages.

If you have any questions (commuting from NYC, about Hoboken, what's going on in the company, anything really), feel free to ask here or send a message to "nat" at the domain that I work on.
How is Trump an immediate threat? I'm really curious. All of his policies are about protecting American interests, and rebuilding America's manufacturing complex.

If you're referring to the Immigration EO... please read it first. It's a really well-written bill. For those curious about whether it was a religious discrimination see this pie chart of the Muslims that are excluded[1]. The goal of the EO is to mitigate the influx of refugees from states that foment anti-Western ideals. It just happens to be this group are radicalized, and violent Islamic people.
