I noticed the same. But I've sought moderate sun not deliberately but because I sense my body tells me to do it.

Our emotions can be wrong, but I guess it makes sense we'd evolve some reasonable senses about sun exposure.

Something like artificial and abundant sugar would be different since it did not exist.

There might be a lot of value in reasonable disobedience of authority and instead listening to your body.
I can't wait for the glorious era of fusion-powered recycling. Dump literally anything in the bin. It all gets vaporized (thanks to plentiful, cheap energy), and is centrifuge-sorted into its constituent atoms.

This argument largely does not exist outside English law. Though I very much doubt it would apply, if it did.
I don't think I can add much more than what was included in this very well thought out answer. I will double down on "Make it unambiguous and obvious when a challenge has been solved." ALL of our flags started with "The Flag Is: ", and that string was NEVER allowed to show up outside of the answer. It made some classes of file carving challenges not possible to do well (because they could be solved with grep...), but I'd argue that those aren't great challenges to begin with. When we did come up with challenges like that, it forced us to be more thoughtful about what made the challenge difficult through being clever, instead of just by brute force red herrings.

Hack.lu in 2018 had a pretty bad challenge that left a bad taste in a lot of players mouths. https://twitter.com/fluxfingers/status/1053279841578086406 describes some of the thinking in making that challenge. I disagree with things like that, though.

Also, meta, but on challenge design: if you're gating your challenges, keep in mind that your final challenges may need to be opened sooner than the last hours of your competition. There's an expectation that challenges get harder as the game goes on, but also, the teams are getting tired, and the time left in the game is going down. We viewed challenges that remained completely unsolved at game close as minor failures. I think one year we didn't let the final challenges open as there was too little time left at the end of the game, so we rolled them over to the following year.

> There are many social contracts tied to the word 'employee'. Expectation of livable vage. Expectation of stability.

If you fire 10% of your staff every 3 or 4 years, plus 1% the other years, that means the average employee has decades of job stability. That's probably enough.
Sure, you can use `git bundle` to export your repository to a file, then upload it to the archive. There's a nice command-line tool for doing the upload (https://github.com/jjjake/internetarchive), so you can easily script this so that it's automatic.
> It doesn't seem like retailers have quite caught on that it's becoming more difficult to recycle.

They have, they just don't care. It's not directly their problem that you can't recycle their waste until people stop buying there or start returning their waste to them.

In summary, from the story, the body cam wearer is not seen commiting a crime in the bodycam footage.
a dash cam however visually depicts an individual acting in a criminal manner. regardless of that person being a cop or civilian, seeing someone doing something wrong assigns guilt, seeing the perspective of the wrongdoer without them appearing in camera has no image of a person to assign guilt toward.
Not sure why you feel the need to point that out, I didn't claim that.
We need to focus more on reuse than on recycling. I'd like to see regulations and tax incentives to encourage beverage companies to use glass bottles that can be washed and reused, rather than disposable aluminum or (even worse) plastic.

It's a common sight in Silicon Valley offices to see greasy empty pizza boxes in the recycling bin. People just don't seem to realize that greasy cardboard can't be recycled, and might even contaminate other material.
My partner just had a colonoscopy, and they gave her fentanyl during the procedure. So even fentanyl in moderation is a positive.
I have been struggling recently with this as well. Here is what I have come up with:

For Personal Daily Goals:
I bought a bound journal that I write down the things I want to accomplish for the day. After I finish a task, I cross it off (odd school satification). Anything I dont accomplish by the end of the day, I assess its value and determine if I really want/need to get it done. If so, then I move it to tomorrows.

Monthly personal goals follow the same procedure with the exception that the goals arent assessed on a daily basis.

Professional/Projects:
I really enjoy organizing my thoughts on Evernote. The application syncs with my phone and desktop, so I never am without it. Tasks, goals, resources, and works go into Evernote. If its more intensive, I will use the google suite to process my ideas or layouts (spreadsheet projections, complex docs, etc.)

After using this system for a while, I have found that it reduces my stress surrounding the projects. However, my solution works for me... OR so I believe... after reading some of the other comments.
High heat is one of the ways PCBs are reprocessed to constituents. Given the energy cost to make long chain molecules it seems a shame to spend energy breaking them. I think it might be better to not make as much in the first place and make kinds which are thermo-mouldable to repurpose

> you'll have to offset this new revenue stream for them if you want them to stop

I find this argument odd. It's like saying I should be penalised because companies can't harvest and sell my organs, since they're being deprived of a "revenue stream". Sure, collecting personal data isn't currently against the law, but the idea that there has to be a compensation for a "potential revenue stream" is ridiculous right?
A hosted alternative to this that has a relatively similar look and feel is Google Keep: https://keep.google.com/
Not teaching children how to cook is a failure of parenting in my opinion. So much useful knowledge about chemistry, thermodynamics, nutrition, small motor skills using knives and whatnot.

My parents made me shop with them, cook with them, clean with them, no reason by age 17 or 18 one wouldn’t be able to handle that themselves. They should have had 8 years of practice already.
It’s a risk area because the risks of BPA likely exist in whatever they are using.

I always assume there’s something nasty under the surface with plastic drink and serving ware — like 6 months after the first BPA studies hit the press, GE sold its plastic and silicone divisions.
Some domestic recycling was partially sorted to separate cardboard and paper from glass and metal. I think cost shifting and effort/cost decisions here are heading back to the user/consumer input end having more work to do. Incentives here would have to be things like a discount on the waste levy.
I have updated the wording of the original article to further clarify the nature of coin inheritance as it pertains to market cap.

The remainder of the article remains largely unaffected by the original poor choice of words regarding market cap inheritance.

As for the quality of the article, I beg to differ. Alot of time went into its research and presentation. Additionally, it was reviewed by a number of active crypto-researchers (as well as yourselves) and revised according to feedback.

Thank you for taking the time to read and leave comments, which have led to improvements to the ideas expressed in the article.
But as the article suggest, most glass is contaminated and thrown away.
I use e-mail as a task list (only file threads when the work is done), and OneNote checklists for the rest (it irks me a bit that not all platforms have proper strikeout formatting for denoting cancelled tasks, but it works).

I also use my calendar for timekeeping (I’ll toggle over to it and move time slots around to plan when I’ll get to the next task on my plate). My priorities are fairly fluid, and I will often move a longer task later in the week and fish out smaller things from my e-mail backlog or checklists to fill that gap.

I just _do_ stuff, and focus on clearing out my inbox and checking out those lists afterwards as part of the cleaning up/re-focusing in between tasks. I also don’t worry too much about not getting something done, because if it doesn’t happen at all, there were certainly more important things that got done in the meantime.

For checklists, OneNote works mostly fine offline (it’s been years since I had trouble with syncing, and was hesitant to move to it because of that) and on all platforms I carry around with me.

I do think about going back to a pure text file set up now and then, but the closest I get is using GitHub flavored Markdown for checklists and roadmaps (most of my READMEs on GitHub have a checklist of what needs to be done, and of late I’ve taken to adding similar lists to my Azure portal for projects).

Again, do stuff. Document it. Plan next steps. Iterate.
It's not about UX, it's about how awful people are. Hacker News is an amazing place, and it's not because of the UX, which is certainly of a piece with the Old Internet. It's because there are people who put a lot of effort into making it a not a giant cesspool. And even then, it can be incredibly difficult to discuss some topics here because discussion becomes overrun by bad actors. If you want to get a sense of what the Internet would be like without an amazing amount of curation, go read the comments on basically any story run on a local newspaper or TV station, where they don't have the resources to do content moderation. Read up on the people who get PTSD having to filter content off Facebook so that an unsuspecting user doesn't run across child porn or a snuff film. The walled gardens exist because the places outside of the walls are <em>awful.</em> And they're a lot more awful if you exist outside of the band of college-to-middle-aged white men who makes up the bulk of the people who experienced the old Internet or who post here on HN. If you're in a lot of more socially vulnerable positions, Twitter is far more a fenced garden than a walled garden. But that fence is still a lot more protection than you'd get on a platform that doesn't have to do that kind of moderation to be viable to advertisers. Monetizing the Internet has had a lot of knock-on effects, but one of those effects is that it's really really hard to monetize open neo-Naziism and a lot of other awful things, so the big players clean up their platforms. Recent years have shown that it's easy to monetize a lot of racist dog-whistling, though. It's not perfect. But an alternative to what we have now needs to start from a point of how do you reduce harassment and social harms, not ignoring how the big commercial players have made things better than they were before.

I totally understand why you're saying what you are, you want folks to be safe... but I think this approach from cyptographers hurts the rest of us, in that most of us will at some point say, as a result of comments like this, "I'm not a cryptographer, I cannot do this correctly... so fuck trying." I think critiquing this crypto used would be more relevant if he was implementing his own and not using using an outdated library.

Instead of linking to proof about how right you are, since you obviously are, perhaps next time you could link to resources for us plebs to stay up-to-date. How do you keep tabs on "all the things" like this?

Hearing requires those mechanical vibrations. I'd argue that hearing requires subjectivity because we never attribute to non-sentient entities the ability to hear. So the difference between the mechanical vibration phenomena and the experience of act of hearing is subjective experience.
Not an expert, but one of the big benefits of molten salt reactors is that they aren't really under pressure - no big poof if containment is breached.

It's also really easy to halt meltdowns - since the fuel and coolant are a big liquid glob, you can have thermal plugs that will melt above a certain temperature and drain the coolant+fuel into tubes small enough that, even when the small tubes are full, the coolant+fuel in the tubes is below critical mass and the reaction stops. It fails safe and is immune to mechanical failure, unlike control rods in current reactor designs that have to be moved in and out.

> you can only make it work with a really low cost of labor.

Yet, isn’t that what automation provides? It has been two decades since supermarkets in the Nordic countries have whizbang bottle-return machines that take back plastic, aluminium, and glass bottles as long as the barcode is still legible. Is there really no way to make a machine that scans the barcode of various other forms of plastic packaging (like yoghurt containers, ketchup bottles, etc.) and then directs the item to the appropriate container? Since the machine will know the exact categorization of the packaging on the basis of the barcode, then consumers would not be required to correctly sort plastic rubbish themselves.

Rails needs Active Deployment
I've used Tokyo Tyrant / Tokyo Cabinet and Kyoto Tycoon / Kyoto Cabinet in production in my previous job in 2018.

There was a need to cache a large number of computation results, hundreds of gigabytes, over network, for a scientific computing process that could run for days.

The cache would not fit in memory, so the KV store needed to be persistent.

I wrote a caching layer with switchable backend, with an API inspired by KT, so that plugging Kyoto Tycoon in would be easy.

Tested with TT, KT and Aerospike. In the end, went with either TT or KT, both being stable, easy to use, performant, and compiling on something as old as RH5 (which some of our clients were still running, apparently).

Compared to KT, Aerospike had more features (ssd optimization, sharding) when used as a KV store, but we didn't need them.

In the world of persistent KV-stores there have not been that many options as of last year. Kyoto Tycoon is feature-complete and works well.

That's why you don't hear many people talking about it: it just works, there's not much to talk about.

And the source/API/documentation it's a work of art.

When you lay people off en-mass, that's a Management Error. I'm surprised nobody here has yet mentioned this fact yet.

Laying off (firing) individuals; or, if a change in strategic direction, laying off entire groups -- that's business.

But 'doing a Jack Welsh' -- that's Poor Management. I can only imagine that Bezos and Branson and ULA will be able to pick up some great employees.

And as for 'cutting the low performers' -- in my many years in industry, I've only seen this happen once. Every other person was 'let go' due to 'political' reasons.

My major point: This move signifies a colossal management fail. I'm looking at you, Elon.
There are significant anatomical differences between herbivores and carnivores. Their digestive systems are specialized to processing either animal or plant based protein and fiber more efficiently. Herbivore teeth differe greatly from carnivore teeth and are specialized for grinding where as carnivore teeth tend to be specialized towards biting and tearing.

Humans are omnivores. Like Black bears, raccoons etc. Our digestive system is capable of processing either plant or animal based protein fairly efficiently. Though there are some plant based proteins humans struggle to digest.

That may be a fair critique. Should SQL be successful only to mathematicians and computer scientists? (Who else would even know about set theory or Venn a priori?)
I think explaining why the crypto usage is wrong is useful, where a straight-up admonishment that someone is doing it wrong isn't.

The principle here is explained, at least partially: if you don't use a random IV for every message, you're not secure. So if the API you're using doesn't let you specify the IV, or doesn't default to a random IV that leaves you with undecipherable blocks if you don't fetch its assigned value, you know it's wrong. It's good info.

> It's fairly clear that the doctor did not mean that all people with Down's syndrome are happy
> When talking about large groups in that manner, the average is implied.

No, this is actually a well-ingrained stereotype, and I've heard exactly the same words from dozens of people (including those in the medical profession) - it seems fairly clear that the doctor was indeed stereotyping.

> "The dutch are tall" does not mean that all dutch people are tall, but that on average they are taller than ourselves.

> in this case we're dealing with a group of people who are substantially, physically different. It is rational to point out the impacts of those differences.

I'm sorry, but this is utterly absurd - you are talking about things that are factual; it is not a fact that people with Down's Syndrome are happier than other groups, neither do related physical differences (facial features, hypotonia, heart problems, whatever) them happy.
I could, and I probably should, but my time is worth something. For $25 I'd be doing it to make a point, but I'm not sure that point would actually be made.

A basic intent of patents is the "open sourcing" of design. You get a limited-time monopoly on your invention in exchange for publicly publishing how it works so others can use it when your patent expires (or before then others can use it by coming to a licensing agreement).

There could be a movement to give patents a much better name and work as intended for the public good, unlikely as it sounds.

This comment helped me to get a better sense of what is and isn't happening within this project. I have to think it through a bit more, but wonder if given the right middleware, or by cheating a bit in the connections (using an arduino), you could setup a weaving device that utilized the khipu as storage, so the logic could record new sets of knots to a khipu...?
