Fusion was, and for the foreseeable future will be, a boondoggle. In the US it was a cold-war-era arms race program intended to scare the USSR and have them overextend, and now the Chinese are using it for propaganda and scientific Keyensianism.

The fact is, fusion generates neutron radiation that destroys the reaction vessel, making it an unviable technology. Nobody takes it seriously as a source of energy, aside from uninformed people. As cool as the idea of controlled fusion is, it is and will remain science fiction.

I suppose that attempting to limit further damage is a good start - so how's about they now actually buy some cleared land and reforest it?

Until then no more Cadbury's for me, though TBH since they sold out to this US megacorp the quality has gone to shit.
I was born/raised in a poor-ish place in south asia and you are generally trained by your parents to believe that most of the homeless/panhandlers are 'fakers'. This myth was quickly destroyed once I spoke to like 5 of them including some people that worked for me who panhandled in their free time (even when they had a job!). They would quickly lay the math out for you and it becomes clear very quickly that these folks don't do this by choice.

I think the faker argument is simply a story richer folks tell to themselves and their kids to prevent major cognitive dissonance since otherwise how can you justify the INSANE amount of homeless/panhandlers there? Branding these folks as the out-group makes it easy to turn a blind eye. No-one chooses to live 10x worse than the general population, beg and be looked down upon.

> Let's assume the average reader knows nothing about cryptocurrency besides it being 'digital money' nor do they care about the technical details. Telling people there have been no fraudulent transactions in the history of the currency is disingenuous. There have been numerous instances in which A's money moved to B without A's consent. Technically writing that off as non-fraudulent might be correct, in that it abides by the rules of the system, but it is likely not what the average reader is using to interpret it.

So your argument is not that it's misleading/infactual, infactual, but that the colon person would misinterpret this.

Does this not happen with technical subjects all the time? Such as in law, some of the lingo used doesn't follow the community accepted definition.
The main justification for some people will be getting away from Oracle's ... quirks, regarding both technology and business practices. The cloud environment for many folks will just be an added fringe benefit.

If you solved homelessness (not with magic, but with money) for everyone with a substance use disorder, then a lot more people would seek treatment, and a lot more would be successful. Even better, you could make that housing into supportive housing, which would prevent deaths from substance use in isolation.
The Ruby exercises are good, if very basic. Solid introduction.
I've been using the Pixelbook i7 16gb/512 SSD as a travel machine for native Android development. Some other con's I've noticed.

1. Multi-monitor support can get a bit flaky when using more than one monitor.
2. While is is pretty speedy, you do run into performance limitations due to it only having a dual core processor.
3. Many Android apps are not as fully featured as their OS-X counterparts. Yes you could use them all in Crostini, but now your going through another virtualization layer, plus the integration is still not fully there.

All of that being said, I used to be a crouton user and it is stable enough that I am not longer doing that....though the lack of USB device support is a bummer (and was supported in crouton).
Wouldn't even take that long. I could throw together a flashy "antivirus" that looks really good and does nothing more than a simple file signature lookup in a month. I could probably also get some sales of it to small companies that don't know any better. But to be ground breaking in the cyber security world and build something that is the foundation of a new company is just not feasible in 3 years without massive help from VCs, which isn't going to happen without a PoC or connections.

> I don't disagree that those are separate businesses. I disagree with how this article presents this information. Every item listed is not a separate business

Ah, I see, we interpreted the meaning of "many businesses" differently. I interpreted businesses to mean markets, as used colloquially in "we're getting into the business of X". You seem to have interpret it as "companies".

The article isn't trying to just point out entities Amazon owns, it's trying to indicate all the markets Amazon has entered, as indicated by the line "Below is a snapshot of many of the dozens of companies or divisions that Amazon owns and operates, showing its reach is far and wide."
Tell HN: Please, please put your product's price on your website
All too often, my experiences with SaaS's these days follows the same process:

- Find out about new product

- Visit website, spend too much time deciphering what the product actually does

- Ctrl + F for "price/pricing" - not found.

- The all-to-ubiquitous pre-sales chat window pops up at the bottom-right of the website.

- Me: "How much is your product?"

- Them a few hours later: "It is $XX/per user/per month"

- Me: "Unfortunately this is out of my budget, I wish I could have pre-filtered myself as a potential client to save us both time."

SaaS's, please, please put your product's price actually on your website!
Would you agree that the whole TTY subsystem makes very little sense in this day and age? Why not let programs operate in raw mode by default and provide user-level library calls for input line buffering?
This reminded me of a conversation chain I had a couple years ago. The main point is that civil disobedience is the purposeful breaking of law, but it is just that. You can break the law, but you need to do so with preparation to face whatever the penalty is. I'm not sure what civil disobedience looks like at the corporate level... I can't think of an examples. At the end, I think it must be an individual decision with enough corporate authority to make it stick... In which case, it falls under the same ideals.

(I've removed contextual text that I think is irrelevant for this discussion.)

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11504953

... Civil disobedience is the refusal to obey laws, not the refusal to uphold them. People participating in civil disobedience do it with the understanding that they can (and should) be prosecuted for such. They do so to act as martyrs.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11506428

...

The bottom line is, you need to be really, really careful when you start arguing for "ethics" and "morality" as a basis for execution of law. For instance, to make a concrete example: It could be argued that based on the ethics and morality of the Nazis, that the mass murders committed under the Holocaust were in fact them morally disobeying those supra-national human rights laws. Who are you to say that the Nazi morality is wrong? You can't point to the agreed-upon supra-national human rights laws, because you are in fact arguing that law should be violated based on morality!

In fact, one of the ways to view law is as an encoding of the morality of the society it covers. Sometimes laws, being fixed entities, and society, being ever changing, drift apart over time. Same as software drifts from the requirements of business if not kept up to date. It usually takes an example like this German one to point out the absurdity, and if the law really is no longer part of the society's morality, becomes fairly easy for lawmakers to fix. (As a reminder, this law being invoked is very old -- from when Germany was a monarchy and insulting dictator kings was morally a very serious crime!)

I worked on an Excel\vba swat team at an investment bank. Whenever someone in the various business units got themselves into more trouble than they could handle with an Excel model, we'd try to set things right. We saw a lot of wonderfully creative vba code from industrious programming beginners (or, as we liked to call them, "Macro Recording Cowboys". The most amusing I saw was a model where the vba code used a Greek mythology variable naming convention:

Dim Hermes As String, Artemis As Long, Odin As Range
Let's consider a proposal, then. A simple approach. Whenever you encounter a homeless person, stop and interact for a bit. Treat them as a human being, deserving of respect and dignity and humane treatment as a friend and neighbor. Find out what they need. Give the at least enough for a meal.

I'm going to assume 5-10 minutes and $10 per person per encounter per day.

Given that I pass at least 20 of my neighbors experiencing houselessness on each leg of my daily commute, I'm looking at $400 a day in donations and upwards of three hours. This may be sustainable for you, but it would quickly leave me unable to afford to eat myself. And that's assuming everything always goes perfectly, which my experiences living in an area with a sizable population of my neighbors being unhoused suggests may not always reliably be the case.

With this pointedly ridiculous hypothetical in mind, it may be worth considering that people have to choose their own boundaries, in their own lives, and for their own reasons. Your heart is in the right place - compassion and kindness matter! - but it's possible that shaming people for choosing their boundaries might not be the most productive of all possible uses of your time and energy.
PS4 requires the physical disk in the drive to play. While yes you can simply share that copy with multiple people, they cannot play together simultaneously.

There’s an immense amout of speculation in this reply. All of this could have/should’ve been explored by the investigators and supported by evidence. As far as that scenario is concerned, the witness narrative does not suggest a pre-meditated crime as your scenario implies it would have to have been.

If the code was AGPL'd and included contributions for which DDG didn't own the copyright (so DDG would be using the code under the terms of the AGPL), they'd be breaking the licence terms if they failed to disclose any changes.

The criminal standard is "beyond a reasonable doubt." The state is going to have to present a lot of facts to overcome the doubt introduced by this evidence.

You're right, that is crummy, and it is something that annoys me.

That being said, at least they include the clause. If this promise had been phrased as, "we won't link with Google products, but we might in the future", I would honestly feel a bit more charitable towards them. It wasn't.

DeepMind went out of its way to describe this not just as a temporary promise, but as a legal one.[0] In their words, "...data will never be connected to Google accounts or services, or used for any commercial purposes like advertising or insurance. Doing so would be completely impossible under our NHS contracts and the law".

That is a full step beyond the crappy TOS that most companies use, and statements like that were given to ease consumer concerns and make it easier for DeepMind to form deep relationships with hospitals.

One other thing to note outside of legal obligations or technicalities is that even if you don't think Google did anything different from the companies you're talking about, companies who do 180s on their TOS still lose trust. The trust loss is separate from the legality.

I don't know if you can go to Google and say, "legally, you shouldn't be allowed to link your product," I'm not a lawyer. I do know that we as consumers and engineers should instinctively distrust any future promises that Google makes about privacy.

If what they're doing is legal, I'm still going to call them out for being untrustworthy and dishonest. Their earlier statements are still lies.

Modern national ID cards are invariably designed for surveillance. Consider the case of Aadhaar (the Indian national ID card). No words can better describe the kind of services it has enabled than what is illustrated in this image -- https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DnWQpoTW4AARm2t.jpg (The image illustrates an app that claims to provide personal information about a random individual by way of facial recognition made possible by use of Aadhaar APIs.)

For your information I've been managing critical databases for more than a decade so I know that it might look unusual to you, but it's quite clear to anyone barely knowledgeable about database management that the article really overblown the issue. It was also mocked by Amazon's CTO.

The US army is composed of the citizens of the United States and is held together by a small elite run by the officer corps and high level civilians GS-13 and above. I estimate this to be under 5000 people. Unless a convincing narrative is formulated, US soldiers will refuse to fight their own. One way to accomplish this is to paint "the enemy" as unsophisticated ludditical racists.
Why? Remember, Bethesda was the outlier. They purchased the Fallout IP from Interplay after Black Isle Studios went under. And many of the former Black Isle Employees went to go work at Obsidian, so New Vegas was much closer to being under the stewardship of the original team than Fallout 3 was.
Games are a hugley competitive space and gamers are very fickle. It's a lot harder to pivot a "product" that's purely for entertainment into something else that's profitable, since a lot of what goes into a game is content that wouldn't nessesarily port well to another endevaor.

I agree with both your points but just want to posit a slight counter. There's also the "fact" that there are maybe more than a dozen people or so that in one method or another could demolish USD or EUR or whatever fiat currency, as well. Couple that with the fact that over time, the number of such influencers over Bitcoin should, as it has historicallly, decrease faster than the same number for fiat currencies.

Just saying that at least partially explains the exuberance with which people are participating in the Bitcoin experiment.
