>in the rush to talk about its warming effect, many choose to ignore the positive effect of CO2 in the atmosphere <with respect> to its importance as a carbon source for plants.

I'm not sure if you're meaning to, but your diction comes across as extremely biased. "Rush to talk" imputes a a hurriedness that does not seem justified based on any discussion I've seen. Also, a "choice" to "ignore" a particular effect, imputes a conscious decision to omit something that may be important. This uncharitable framing seems to be in error, as your own link doesn't seem very optimistic about greening countering climate change.

>“Studies have shown that plants acclimatize, or adjust, to rising carbon dioxide concentration and the fertilization effect diminishes over time.

The actual paper is quite interesting!

I haven't struck this with google before. Gruber had a critical post about it yesterday so I assume it's new. Does the BBC get to object? How do page views get tracked?
It is a bit dishonest to blame other nations for your failings. First because you make sure to harm them when they speak up (remember freedom fries ?), but also because you ignore their protests anyhow (e.g. your present message, when most of Europe is speaking up against your current pres).

Having just finished reading Lisa Randall's "Dark Matter and the Dinosaurs," I was a bit disappointed to not see any mention of her new "dark disk" hypothesis. Maybe her research is a bit more "fringe," but it seems like all of these experiments are pretty far out there.

The "dark disk" hypothesis basically says that there are actually multiple types of dark matter particles, and there's a disk made of heavier or more strongly interacting dark matter particles in a disk shape overlapping with the milky way disk.

> The reason this particular corridor is used is because it was initially cleared in 1982 for an existing gas pipeline. The DAPL pipeline runs parallel to that pipe

So basically this pipe runs alongside an existing pipe? I feel like I can't trust anything I read anymore from either side.
I assume you would have the same reaction to someone proclaiming any other language as their favorite, also?
The paid protestor story is bait and switch as if to imply no, it's not the for profit corporation doing the pipeline that's in it for the money, it's the protestors - they are the ones in it for the money here!

One side is trying to make billions and someone is falsely claiming the other side is trying to make hundreds and That becomes the story. What immoral, outrageous, reprehensible nonsense.
Would you say the same if said "paid" action was driving/directing public policy? There is a reason there are strict laws regulating money in regulations and public service. This is of course not quite the same but it essentially boils down to "money buys votes". The assumption being that who sends more money wins. That is why I would argue it bothers people.

Edit: grammar.
Perhaps not. But it's going through their water.
MobX Delorean – Time travel debugging for MobX-React applications
Delorean is an intuitive, in-app debugger, enabling developers to gain insight into their MobX-React projects with only two lines of code. Time travel functionality allows users to step back and forward through a log of their application’s state, replicating MobX observable transactions. Paired with singular undo and redo actions, Delorean makes it easy to pin point exactly when and why a bug occurs. Our next update will include multi-timeline time travel and a visualization of your application’s MobX data flow.

I once dabbled inside vscode tokenizer code. There is a lot going but putting tokens in a buffer took me by a surprise. It was a very smart implementation.

I think it's their focus on performance and good architecture that makes vscode stand out.

Sure sublime also has great engineering behind it, but being able to contribute and look under the hood of tools, we developers use is very exciting. It feels like a very democratic process.

I remember filing the mini-map bug in Monaco, I'm so glad to see they are working on implementing it in a performant way even though it will require large rewrites of their editor rendering code.
IAS is calculated from the difference between the outside air pressure as measured by a "static" port on the side of the aircraft and the pressure measured by the pitot tube pointed in (hopefully) the direction of travel. It could be measured as pressure, but it is proportional to true airspeed under standard temperatures and pressures.

The short answer is that bus left about a hundred years ago.

One approach I've seen mentioned is sending a larger-than-used field of view (and resolution), and then locally deciding, with more recent orientation data, which portion to use. Also depth segregation of the scene, and sending multiple copies of nearfield, selected by recent position.

These approaches might result in sending more data than the displayed video.

I don't necessarily disagree with your suggestion of gigabit adequacy. Though after hearing similar suggestions so many times over the decades, about everything on Moore's law curves, and then having them almost always be wrong, I'm... leary of this form of suggestion.

But one way such estimates fail, is being hit by an "oh, we didn't expect that one". So I'm brainstorming (well, merely sort of musing) about potential surprises.

Hmm, surprises... One advantage of a single video stream is the system always knows what's needed next. The user may turn it off, but not much else. The above are perhaps examples of needing to send speculative content, which acts a demand multiplier. The future equivalent of web page preloading.

As people acquire automated assistants, one thing they may do is speculative exploration and data gathering. When a user's eye pauses on a github project, not just download everything about the project, to produce the desired pithy little briefing popup, but also other pages associated with the repo authors (still alive? any replacement project?), news articles, related work, and so on. Automation of the 'github project evaluation dance', which in the fine-grained node.js ecosystem, is frequent. So what is now a few bytes of web link, and a rare on-demand textual mouse popover, followed by slow manual surfing, might be become an immediate massive demand spike, and pervasively common? One potential of VR vs 2D screen UIs, is that while screen realestate must be severely managed, else clutter, VR may permit vastly greater inclusion of speculative "some related stuff", blended as low-cognitive-overhead ambiance. Once upon a time, a web page had the bandwidth demands of a few lines of ascii email from a dumb terminal - no longer.
Not really. What about MSE / DASH and touch events? Apple were often hindering adoption if new technologies, if they had their own locked up / patented alternatives, which they didn't want to undermine my accepting open competition.

> I don't think the Army Corps is that corrupt.

I'm not sure the Army Corps was involved until after the reroute, and, in any case, it had publicly announced that it would not approve the easement on the current route because of the issues raised relating to Standing Rock and was conducting environmental impact reviews of alternative routes prior to the Trump executive order directing approval of the current route, so, yes, I'll agree that the Army Corps of Engineers itself is not indicated to be the source of the problem.
So now broadcast TV should be our benchmark for quality customer experiences? Yeah, "the horror," I didn't switch to streaming to get the exact same problems.

I'm a long time Hulu subscriber, and when I signed up the amount of advertising in a given program was MUCH more reasonable and there were more shows available. The quality of service has actively degraded over time since I became a customer, and their solution was to offer a more expensive option that does not actually remove ads, since plenty of shows still have them. Frankly, I feel like I am entitled to some free TV at this point, for the sheer volume of advertising Hulu has gradually warmed me into thinking is reasonable to be exposed to in a 20 minute program. It shouldn't take 40 minutes to get through an episode of Daria.

That gets to a point I left out of my original post - I really wouldn't mind spending a couple more bucks if I could still watch the shows I originally signed up for, but Hulu is now removing most of the old programming I like (Daria, Chapelle's Show, etc). Their original programming is clearly not as good as they seem to think it is and three melodramatic shows about weird psychics doesn't make up for the programming I actually want to watch, which is now literally only available on DVD or on Kodi. Hollywood doesn't exist to entertain me at no cost but there's literally nothing for me to "just pay for."

Solitons are interesting, I have always been curious if anyone has done any sort of genetic search for solitons for more general wave equations. There are only a couple of known analytic solutions to a few different wave equations, but finding approximate non-analytic solutions with something like a genetic algorithm might be interesting.
I've heard ideas thrown around explaining both the relative weakness of gravity (compared to other forces) and parallel universes. Gravity would be strong, but prone to "leaking" along a hidden dimension, and the gravitational sum of those invisible worlds would explain the blobby, non-interacting nature of dark matter.

I don't know of any scientists actually giving this consideration, but it does make for a fun head-canon.

One thing that I think people miss about the book is its profound disappointment that there are so few cities that even begin to approach her ideal. I think she would agree that you don't need to get the maximum number of people to live in a particular city; in fact, I recall that the book lists actual a goal range of densities. What we should do is learn the basics so that if more people want to live in urban environments, we can more easily build those environments. America has not built a "new" city in the style of NYC or SF in a very long time.

We changed the url from https://www.google.com/amp/www.bbc.co.uk/news/amp/38901498, which points to this.

The submitted title ("US Army approves Dakota Access Pipeline without required environmental review") rewrote the original when it wasn't misleading or linkbait. This breaks the HN guidelines (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html), so please don't do that.

Doing it to emphasize a contentious detail in the story is editorializing, which is particularly bad. On HN, unlike some other social news sites, submitters have no special rights over the story and don't get to frame it for everyone else. If you'd like to say what you think is important about a story you've submitted, please do so by commenting in the thread. Then you're on a level field with everyone else.
Thanks for sharing. I love the education licensing! I've been teaching with Scratch and MinecraftEdu/ComputerCraft (which also uses Lua) and this looks like a promising addition to my classroom tech stack. Extra-cool that it is DRM-free and doesn't require an account to use...these sources of friction can really negatively impact classroom productivity for students age 8 - 12.

Frankly if it requires an account I flat out won't use it in the classroom unless it is really simple and complies with COPPA (like Scratch accounts, especially the new classroom accounts)
Wow, that looks ridiculous. Had no idea Pico-8 was capable of that.

> Americans barely even really reckon with slavery. Compare to Germans with Nazism. Where's the slavery Auschwitz? There are minor museums here and there but it's completely incomparable.

This is a completely subjective statement. The US has slavery museums in its Washington DC, and it's a topic that is never far from public conscientiousness.

Compare that to Brazil, who's slave trade dwarfed that of North American, no formal recognition or ongoing efforts.

Or Russia slowly and methodologically erasing the crimes of the Soviet union (and Stalin particularly) from public view.

Or China reintroducing Mao as a folk hero, a mass murderer on par with Stalin.

These are real omissions and cover ups. The US could be better, absolutely. But compared to others, it at least tries to reconcile their past with modern society.

That is just a name, decided before Java settled on a consistent terminology. In C# it is NullReferenceException.

We get into nitpicking, but I would argue references and pointers are not the same. Pointer are by definition memory addresses, while references are opaque and could be addresses under the hood.

Note also that C# does have pointers, but they are separate from references.
Your entire comment came off as negative, the use of 'hack' is only part of it.
Great question. We rank in two stages for a number of different reasons. First, it would be too expensive from a performance perspective to rank all of the messages in your corpus. Second, some of the features that we use to rank are much more easily accessed at the application layer. It would require more of an engineering effort to make these signals accessible in SOLR. The first pass which is done in SOLR is a high recall, low precision pass. The second pass through our custom ranker is a high precision pass. It is possible that we would lose some messages that might end up being important in the first pass but it's a tradeoff between performance and accuracy. Hope this helps answer your question.
Unfortunately yes we do have to worry about propaganda.

An example: In Colorado where I live a large number of people contacted their republican senator Cory Gardner to express their disapproval of Betsy Davos for Secretary of Education.

Gardner publicly ignored these voices with the claim that they were "paid protesters". Widespread claims that protesters can be ignored because of a claimed "paid protester" taint should be challenged when false because these claims spread and make it easier to normalize this kind of democracy eroding response from representatives.

Frankly, when you know people and have relatives on both sides and get told a lot but keep getting called and voted as a liar really doesn't make me want to bother anymore. People forget the problems we are having with rail transport and one of the other tribes being dragged out of poverty because of the oil. I still love my relatives doing the protesting, but they would have been better served if the tribe had bother to do its paperwork years ago.

I don't know about those other things.

Most of the "dinosaurs" around here should know by now that you don't get paid to do what works; you get paid to do what the boss/customer wants. (And that's not always going to be exactly what they asked for, either.)

As long as you continue to throw money at me, I'll continue to chase your wild geese, hunt your snipes, fish for your red herrings, and joust with your wind turbines. Most of us here can learn fast enough to always stay one or two steps ahead of the boss on whatever topic they might latch on to. And that becomes genuine experience if it somehow manages to graduate past the business fad phase.

Russia's threat to European democracy was clearly evident even before WW2 started.
