"Nearly everyone" is a lie. You're probably living in a bubble of /r/bitcoin, which is heavily censored.

Many people want larger blocks, we want on-chain transactions scaled way up. I'm yet to hear a good argument against large blocks. Storage is dirt cheap. Connections between servers are generally at least 1Gbps.

Also, lots of people (especially men) avoid anything with "Soy" in it because it is said to contain compounds which mimic estrogen. This was debunked [1], but still, it may hurt marketing.

> Body cameras don’t always work out as many activists envisioned. Last week, the officer who shot Justine Damond in Minneapolis and his partner didn’t turn on their cameras, leaving us in the dark about what exactly happened in the case. This week, prosecutors in Cincinnati dropped charges against former University of Cincinnati police officer Ray Tensing after two mistrials — even though body camera footage clearly showed that the man Tensing shot, Samuel DuBose, never posed a threat to him.

Cameras work out exactly as advocates said they would - exposing how corrupt police forces can be. Police officers not turning on their cameras or judges disregarding clear evidence is what's not working out.

Why do we even allow cops on duty with the camera off? Why do we give them the choice of when it will be turned on?

Apart from going to the washroom, or going off duty to eat lunch, I say the cameras should record constantly.

The whole reason companies go public is to raise capital. Without buybacks and dividends as at least potential future possibilities this would be hampered.

Additionally, companies guarding mountains of cash is problematic. Sometimes companies can invest cash more wisely than the market. Often times however this is not the case.

I agree short termism is a problem, but I'm not convinced of any particular solution here.

I'll also point out that sometimes when the market is too short termist private equity can come in and revalue the company to free it from those constraints as in the case of Dell.

I'm not following this too closely, but here's the summary as I understand it: it's a software evolution based on existing BLE hardware. It's not a new profile, they're above the connectivity layer. Most important "detail" IMHO: it's just the first step of BT mesh. This version 1.0 is based on flooding, so not super efficient. Take all the pictures with a gazillion devices with a big grain of salt ;) But an extension with routing, allowing better scaling, will follow soon. Then it will have the potential to scale better. But this first version is enough to get started, and sufficient for limited scale deployments like consumer applications at home for example.

That doesn't help, when you really needed an unsigned extension, or at least signed with your own key (and enroll your own key to firefox installation).

For example, FreeIPA used to have an extension, that configured Firefox to your own domain (enrolled an root signing certificate, configured trusted domains for GSSAPI, etc. - all the dangerous things). But because the extension was customized for your own domain, obviously, it could not be signed.

So, it was killed instead. Nowadays, you get a list of steps, you have to do by hand. On every desktop.
Things like "2M2B", tertiary-Amyl alcohol.

The downsides tend to be foul taste and massive potency - much over 15ml can kill someone. It doesn't undergo metabolism to aldehyde so the traditional hangover doesn't happen, and the duration can be much longer.

There are others. I'm not vouching for the safety of any of them (even ethanol!), for the record, and have not tried 2M2B.

Ask HN: What is `PiperOrigin-RevId` in Google commits?

Let's stress – some of the UK press. The Express, Daily Mail, the Sun, and so on. Tabloid journalism is still a thing, and has been present for an awfully long time globally – it's not a new thing, nor particular to the UK.

But then there's also The Times, The Guardian, The Independent, The Economist, the FT – all of which have bias and flaws in their own way, but are indisputably higher-quality.

The mistake is in assuming that there can ever really be a realistic, completely-free-from-influence publication. In reality, we have to rely on a diversity of publications, funding models and political viewpoints, and make informed decisions. This needs to be backed by strong FOI laws and a culture of press freedom, which sadly is something which the UK has not been doing well at recently.
So, I realize this is a joke, but there's a small silver lining here IMO. This is potentially an interesting way to illustrate to new or non-programmers just how many ways there are to slice any problem. If 5 can be creatively represented so many ways, imagine how many ways a more complex business problem can be implemented?

Let them validate the market for you. Assuming there are no other players in the area, then this is something new, without a market. Who knows, maybe you both have been chasing the wrong thing, something that no one wants.

The problem then becomes judging their success from external factors. For exmaple, from my perspective, it seems like there have a been a lot of floundering "database as a service" types of services lately. People have been building different types of scalable datastores and failing to find a market (won't name names here :))

Almost all of the issues I experience with Internet connectivity day-to-day are down to bad consumer networking equipment. APs start failing, or routers stop routing, seemingly at random.
I think AWS is good for side projects. I am also a solo developer and have deployed side projects on AWS so far my experience is very good. As you have mentioned that you can't afford to spend >100 euros/month I think you can go with AWS free tier where it is possible

1- For DB server you can you RDS free tier I would say it would be enough for a side project

2- For Redis Instance you can use EC2 free tier to run single Redis Instance or you can try Amazon elastic Cache as well

3- For Rails app depending upon your need again you can either use free tier server or whatever suits you check different AWS EC2 instance types https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/

4- For CDN you have to use Amazon S3 first and that would cost you and cost depends upon usage + storage, since its a side project bill won't be too much

Happy Deployment ;)

Just a clarifying note: mutations and foreign proteins are not always responsible for the effectiveness of TILs in all cases. For instance, in a report from this year, patients with HPV (Human Papilloma Virus) positive cervical cancer were treated with TILs. It was expected that most of the TILs would be directed to HPV antigens or mutated protein (neo-antigens) because both would be maximally foreign to the immune system. However, it was determined that T cells against the wild-type protein CT83 (also known as KK-LC-1; which is a wild-type cancer associated antigen) dominated the response in at least one patient.

> Consuming food is effectively mandated by biology and there is incredible competition in the sector.

While I understand your point, I don't agree with your analogy. The reason is because yes food production has a lot of competition, however it is easier to produce and less expensive.

You can grow small quantities of food at home with about a $20 investment into pots, soil, and seeds - of which that $20 can be spread over multiple years. However you can't as easily produce solar panels at home. Solar panels with the efficiency they have now has taken decades and billions of USD spent in r&d. The production itself takes multiple large buildings, expensive equipment, and many specialized people.

While yes my family in Nebraska has thousands of acres to produce corn, or my family in California has hundreds of acres of pasture land for milk production, I can guaranty you that they couldn't easily and cheaply switch to solar panels.

Then there's the whole aspect of installation. Not everyone in the country can install solar panels in South Miami but it's a hell of a lot easier for a farm in California to sell tomatoes to a supermarket in Ohio. I'm sure the state of FL requires some kind of license, including bonds and insurance for contractors to operate. Probably also requires at least one licensed electrician. You can't just be a CraigsList handyman today and do solar-panel installation tomorrow; at least legally and correctly.
And that require is so 2016... Today we use import:

I used to think I had a pretty good grasp on how the compiler was going to encode things.

After spending months looking at disassembled FreeBSD kernel C code in a profiler, trying to hunt down cache misses, I'm realize that it is hard to count on anything and that my instincts, even after 25+ years of C programming, are often wrong.
What sometime happens in cases like that is that the officer's previous arrests are gone through, and many of them thrown out as unsafe. Which is harsh and the police force concerned will absolutely hate. But that's too bad; if you don't want that outcome then don't plant evidence.
IMO you don't need a reason for something like this, it's just fun.

I think you answered your own question. "going to the washroom". It seems unlikely that a police officer is going to radio the police station to say, "I gotta go to the bathroom," each time they need to relieve themselves.
Just off the top of my head, it's very easy to see how some tense scenarios could be escalated were a camera recording, or how some individuals would be much less likely to cooperate or provide information to officers where they are being recorded.

I do appreciate that it's complex though - we can ask what the point of cameras is if they're not recording, which is reasonable, but there are also plausible scenarios where they could cause problems.
Maybe this is a good opportunity for Firefox to abandon its "forced mediocrity" model.

The vanilla installation of Firefox lacks basic UI components (mouse gestures for example), lacks session management, and the bookmark and history interfaces look like they were made in 1995.

When you click an old entry in History I don't understand why it's so difficult for the selection to stay near the formerly clicked item, instead of it selecting the top most entry forcing you to scroll all the way down again if you want to open another entry that's near the previously clicked entry.

Why can't Bookmarks employ a simple logistic classifier? OK I've stopped using Firefox's bookmark system a long time ago (because its so shitty) but if I were to be still using it I would expect the browser to be smart enough to figure out that if all my bookmarks from a certain site are in a specific bookmark folder that most likely means this new bookmark from that same site should go there and should be offered as the 1st choice.

Now, yes, of course you can add all these features in a slow JavaScript-based addon which will eat your memory and cpu time and allow the Firefox team to blame the addons when something goes wrong with Firefox, but at some point you have to reconsider if this is such a good idea.

Sure very few people use mouse gestures in Firefox and adding them out of the box could be interpreted as bloat, but maybe if more users even knew what mouse gestures were and how useful they are, they would start considering them a fundamental aspect of a browser's interface and not just a fancy knick-knack.

I miss the old Opera so much :(
