There are a lot of things which would likely not break down oven millions of years, provided they were largely protected from the element. A lot of glasses, ceramics.

I wouldn't recommend running your own WordPress unless you're willing to update plugins on a moment's notice. Lots of plugins have security holes and once an exploit is in the wild, mass hacks of WordPress blogs are very common. If WordPress hosts it for you, they will close the holes much faster than you can.

I'd say don't try to get too exotic or fancy with the food. Just make sure it's good quality (doesn't have to be great, just good). Do that, and you'll have beaten over half of the wedding receptions I've been to.

If I can go to a local BBQ joint, spend $10 on a pulled pork sandwich and baked potato, and feel like I had a 3x tastier meal than the $40+ you spent per plate at the wedding (or whatever crazy number it is nowadays), then I think you screwed up.

And I am not a picky eater at all. There are a lot of people much much pickier than me.

When you try to get super fancy then a lot of people won't care for it, because they don't have the same palates that you do (when you average people out, they collectively have a very boring palate, it seems to me).

I think it's an ugly example of bad headlining, though not 'fake news'. I did parse it backwards at first because so much had been elided.

BBC does this constantly because their mobile news app uses such short headlines - they elide all the specifiers and half the verbs, to the point where what's left is word salad with a handful of key nouns. Annoyingly often, it's necessary to read a piece just to see what the headline meant in the first place.

I'm not saying the following is what happened in your situation. As an anecdotal insight, I have friends who are K thru 8 school teachers teachers and they have to be extremely careful with this type of question. The reason is religion, specifically Christian religion. If they misstep and posit a view that contradicts a child's parent's religious views then they are, best case scenario, going to hear about it or, worst case scenario, going to have parents form a group whose sole purpose is ousting the teacher from the school.

From my soap box, the religious self-policing, to me, is one of the more disconcerting aspects of the education system in the United States. As a personal observation, if a parent is worried that a single teacher providing an intentionally unbiased perspective on a philosophical topic is going to challenge a child's beliefs to the point where it overcomes a family's and church's indoctrination then it isn't the new perspective that's the problem. To this day I believe that "core curriculum" should include logic and philosophy with an emphasis greater than all other topics.
Isn't a father-mother-son leadership team a massive red flag when choosing what company to work for? I mean, whether it's a car dealership or a tech startup, when you have family pride all mixed up in company culture it really tends to be a shitty place to work.

I'm reminded of Cambridge Analytics' claims about profiles for everyone in the US. So now profiles will include stuff from parents' social media: prenatal sonograms, baby pictures, first step videos, etc. Also logs from interactions with toys. And their social media. Plus the educational records.

This is a bit off topic, but the mentioned Ingress controller (https://github.com/zalando-incubator/kube-ingress-aws-contro...) is not using the ALB rules, it just provisions ALBs with the right SSL certificate and points to some HTTP proxy doing the actual host/path routing (e.g. Skipper).

I agree with the EFF's position but what the EFF, I, and others with the same point of view lack is an elevator pitch on the harm of losing privacy (or the benefits of privacy). The EFF and I generally assume know the risk is well-known, but it's not. When people ask me, 'what's the harm?' or 'so what?', I don't have an effective answer prepared.

So what is an effective answer? Requirements: Short, high-impact, memorable (it must spread), crystal clear for the completely non-technical, not easily refuted.

No, it's really not -- it's actually more like $77,000[1]. With the bulk of the difference being driven by housing prices. And $77,000 is actually above the average salary for a SE in Ft. Lauderdale (according to Glassdoor: $73,000).

Greed isn't always rational.

Scott Kupor [managing partner at VC firm Andreessen Horowitz] wrote an article [1] suggesting that a 10 year exercise window for employees who leave:

" is really a direct wealth transfer from the employees who choose to remain at the company and build future shareholder value, to former employees who are no longer contributing to building the business/ its ultimate value."

This seems to suggest that the "investment" by early employees who leave shouldn't be treated like the early investments from VC's who decline to keep investing at some point.

$75 is a one time charge. Admittedly, OP is unlikely to maintain a blog for 3 years and Medium is even more unlikely to be around in 2020 but $75 one time sounds better to me than $3/month forever.

Better than that! I prefer to look at the actual, most recent up to date data that EIA has collected. It goes all the way up to January 2017. In the 12 months rolling up through January, coal was just 30.5% of US electrical generation:
https://www.eia.gov/electricity/monthly/epm_table_grapher.cf...
Below gas (33.5%). And below carbonfree energy at 35.4%.

That 35.4% carbonfree electricity can be broken down into: 19.8% nuclear (this part we really should fight to keep operating as long as possible, certainly until we shut down every fossil fuel plant... going from 80% renewables to 100% renewables may actually be harder than going from the current 15.5% to 80%).

7.6% wind, geothermal, small hydro, and maybe some biomass (unfortunately, EIA doesn't break these out separately)... though most of this is wind and geothermal

6.7% conventional hydro.

1.4% solar. (and this includes distributed solar)

AS recently as 2003, over 50% of our electricity was generated from coal. We're now at 30.5%.

As long as we keep nuclear operating, it should be fairly cheap to squeeze out the rest of that 30% of coal by installing high capacity factor wind turbines where it's windy (and perhaps anti-correlated with other sites), lots and LOTS of cheap utility-scale solar, mounted on single-axis trackers to increase capacity factor, and lots in Texas and the American South where it's not already common.

Adding 15% additional grid penetration of solar and wind both, along with probably some storage (lots of pumped hydro in Appalachia to replace coal, batteries everywhere else) to smooth out demand and UHVDC powerlines and East-West interconnects, we can squeeze out the rest of that 30% of coal without huge costs.

If we try to do this without that ~20% nuclear, we'll either need a lot more gas or a LOT more money.

Ask HN: What do you use to digitize your paper records?
I'm looking at digitizing most of my personal paper records like tax files, large value receipts, important letters, legal documents etc. The plan is to scan them to PDF or TIFF using a feed scanner. I want a solution that encrypts and backs up to the cloud. Anyone doing this? Suggestions for a good system and tools for this requested. Thanks!

It's the fact that we share the DNA with such diverse amounts of life that matters. You argue that humankind is fundamentally different and exceptional than all other life is to reinforce the hierarchy set forth by Aristotle and offers an outdated pyramidal view of the biosphere. The more we share, the more in common we seem to have. You can't tell me it's meaningless, that's just completely ignoring decades of scientific research.

Is article 12 what you are speaking on?

"No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence, nor to attacks upon his honour and reputation. Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks."

That seems really broad. Does this apply to private citizens and firms or only governments? If the former it seems a great deal of journalism would be illegal.

A few recent examples. When Rachel Maddow released Trumps tax returns was that a violation of article 12? What about when that "grab her by the" tape came out, Trump clearly intended that to be a private conversation and it was a "attack upon his honour and reputation" wasn't it? I don't see a line that allows for truthful attacks.

I don't know if I want to live in a country where it is illegal to report on fact in such a broad and sweeping manner.

I don't think it really matters what you call it, and I accept that you may feel differently about it. But in my own personal experience there's absolutely nothing good about shyness.
