> The hackaday article explicitly states the oxygen-rich preburner exhaust was extremely hot

I didn't find this exact quote, but the idea is the following: oxygen-rich flow can get hot enough to ignite metal. What Russians did was to find the materials withstanding ignition best and find temperatures which are still safely avoiding ignition. This combination turned out good enough to use oxygen-rich gas generators.

Raptor may be using similar approach. "Two sides of the problem" language is, in my opinion, about the tradition to have fuel-rich turbines in America and oxygen-rich in Russia, and for full flow engine you need both.

The turbine can run cooler, because you don't need to have gases from gas generator that hot in order to get enough power to the pumps. You're getting that power from the fact that you use full flow of both fuel and oxidizer, and since you have that additional source of power, you can relax requirement of the gas generator exhaust temperature.

A small handful of people can still easily cost millions of dollars per year. And DSN time to talk to the rovers is expensive, probably in the neighborhood of $2,000 per hour.
I feel like my current company was going this direction for a bit, but they’ve reversed course and are now bringing all development on-site, if not in-house.

Which is really the only way to develop if you want anything to get done.
> The entire trend of research in animal consciousness over the last 300 years has always been “animals turn out to be more conscious than we think”.

To be fair, a lot of the changes have been motivated by a parallel trend of "it's actually not OK to make living creatures suffer". There were plenty of things in the not-too-distant past (public executions / torture in the middle ages, Roman circuses) which were perpetrated on clearly sentient creatures, as much for entertainment as anything.
Fair. I'm embarrassed to have been so presumptuous.
I don't agree at all. All reputable law already understands conditions of intent and reasonableness. The issue is that tech companies have not just profited from, but encouraged illegal behavior that ran up their margins, and taken no action to reduce it because it was against their interests to do so.

Once these articles hopefully do pass, after the initial run of tech co panic has passed, we'll find the world has not ended, and companies doing legitimately bad things can be effectively punished.
Too much white space is bad. White space is not a trend. That's like saying colour is a trend.

Proper use of white space is an essential part of good design. But when there's so much space between elements on a page that it shoots the page height to the moon, that's bad.
The occasional exception is reasonable, if the exception is exceptionally clever.

They end up remarkably similar, but it turns that remarkably similar isn't nearly similar enough to be useful in most contexts. In fact, I think the biggest lesson of the social sciences is a deeper intuitive understanding of how individual variation will completely dominate any other statistical factor in anything made of people, and how fortunate we were that the physical sciences were much simpler.
I mean this actually makes a lot of sense to me in that in the US (my location) the majority of talking points, memos and even verbatim legislation is furnished by think tanks and 'public interest' groups with the money to fund and push their own agendas. Our politicians are already taught to repeat or support whatever copy they are given, without understanding the issue or implications. Critical thinking skills often seem at odds with the current political climate.

Actually many of the younger developers I have worked with treat their jobs like a blue collar technician rather than a creative engineer. It is clear they achieved a CS degree they confused for a trade school. It is pretty clear these developers want all the vanity of being called a developer at a major brand without any responsibility to make independent decisions.

Too many people who aren't "paranoid" about killing little insects even sweep the murder of humans under the rug. We also have no real answer to the fact that in a century, there might be no more insects, with all the further extinction of other species that'll entail. e.g. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19129378

Even when we're extremely selfish and petty, if we take too much effort to take care of ourselves, that's generally fine, as long as it's legal and not too annoying -- but when others worry "too much" about yet others, and change their own behaviour accordingly, they can't possibly have "any semblance of good mental health"? Come on..

The insects at least actually exist, what of caring about random people that don't even exist yet, wouldn't that be even crazier?

> Well, suppose that we believe what we are taught. It follows that if there are dollars to be made, you destroy the environment. The reason is elementary. The people who are going to be harmed by this are your grandchildren, and they don't have any votes in the market. Their interests are worth zero. Anybody that pays attention to their grandchildren's interests is being irrational, because what you're supposed to do is maximize your own interests, measured by wealth, right now. Nothing else matters. So destroying the environment and militarizing outer space are rational policies, but within a framework of institutional lunacy. If you accept the institutional lunacy, then the policies are rational.

OK, but why do they believe it's a good thing for society for parents to provide for their children, even after their children reach adulthood, and even when those children will distort the markets of the places they live with affluence?

I think with most answers to that question, I can construct an argument that it's a good thing for society for government to provide for those unwilling to work. But if the answer is "It just is," I don't have a hope of an argument. I cannot convince someone of why things are good and bad if they have a random list of specific situations that are just axiomatically good and just axiomatically bad. I am hoping that 'SlowRobotAhead has some other answer, so I'm not sure what your goal is in repeating things I already know (and that you say you know I already know) at me.

If you, personally, are a person who believes that it's a good thing for society for parents to provide for their children, but not for government to provide for those unwilling to work, can you explain why you believe the former?
There are MANY foundations for set theory, some of them very different from each other. It's completely pointless to treat the subject as briefly as this post does.

Do you feel like it wouldn't be a violation of your rights if someone seized your house, handed you a pile of cash and told you to get out of the country?

That's more extreme then what's being talked about but not by much. When it comes to freedoms "technically not slavery" is not one that I value as particularly free.

A person is moving their life to this country, they are becoming a resident and joining a community. If they behave well I think the process for them to become a full PR should be easy, and the threat of losing their job shouldn't be bundled with losing everything that currently makes their life stable.

Absolutely. If any carrier offered a cheaper data-only plan I would seriously consider it.
No, you've just asked me to not have differing opinions. Of course, when it's convenient for others to express theirs in similar language, as long as it's not the wrong opinion, it's quite fine.

It may even be completely innocent and valid for a developer to do this, but :

1. there seems to be -intentionally- very little transparency about it,

2. the second most prominent contributor - who was also the most prominent contributor for the last two years - was, we are told, locked out without notice

3. the original developer has repeatedly declined to acknowledge that the community has (or could have) any concerns worth even discussing.

4. the Github history indicates a strong possibility the package was bought.

If someone wants to sell their package, perhaps they have every right to, but the author's repeated dismissal that anyone might be legitimately concerned or legitimately want to know more about this process is bizarre and alarming.
security related positions, such as application penetration testing, physical pen testing, etc. all require the "security mindset" which is essentially the skill of thinking adversarily and breaking things.

What I know is this. For each donor organ, they rank everyone one on multiple factors including compatibility, time on list, age, location, etc. Then they call up the first individual on the list and see if they are interested. If they don't get a confirmation in some time, they go to the next individual down the list.

I know of one individual who didn't reply soon enough and missed out. The next match they got was 2 years down the line but it was a very good match.

Edit: I think they do call up a couple people on the top of the list but the highest priority that calls in the time allotted will get it. Again this is still a mystery to me since I'm only half way through my wait time on list so no inquiries up to now.

>I'm not from Europe, but one of the weird things about the EU is that sometimes it seems to be trying to be a state and a not-state at the same time.
That’s IMO the fundamental flaw of the EU — they want to be the “United States of Europe” but unlike the USA, there’s far too much history and non-shared heritage between the countries for them all to effectively shed their heritage and reshape into a cohesive whole.
In an IT industry magazine website (Information Week? not sure) had an article about an IT engineer at JPL who was picked/trained to be one of the drivers of the rovers. He was just a normal IT guy, but got the chance to be a driver for the rover.

He recalled that the first night after he spent a day driving the rover on Mars, he couldn't sleep at home. He had just driven a vehicle on the Mars. Certainly one of the first in human history.

there's no way they'll give up after a single phone call. but the transplant team and the person potentially receiving the transplant only have one hour to respond to a notification of an available organ before UNOS moves on to the next person down the list. edit: mind you, this is not a straightforward yes/no - the transplant center needs to make sure that this particular organ donation will work at that particular time etc. - so there's a lot of factors involved.

my stupidest (but i guess not entirely invalid) fear is that i'm listed as the primary contact for my dad in need of a kidney, and i basically can't go to any shows using yondr or any similar situation where i won't be near my phone for a while. or at least make sure that other people that will be contacted too know that i will not be available to pick up.

edit: i guess i didn't answer the specific question though! at least the center where my dad is listed - they have a bunch of contact numbers for us and i have their numbers in my address book plus a request on my voicemail msg to call me twice to bypass DND if necessary. and my dad's renal case manager knows to text/email/call me too and her direct numbers are whitelisted in my phone, always. the 1 hour limit means we (the patient/family) will have less than 1 hour to respond.

i also do believe that the center that gets the notification from UNOS also gets pinged if UNOS don't hear back at all whatsoever (like, a confirmation of the notification at minimum) within 10-15 minutes of the original notification. something like that. basically there's not really a situation where a single missed call will make or break it (unless literally someone is unreachable for the whole time.)
It's possible I'm mucking up the jargon, but isn't stress testing electronics what most of us might call "burn-in"? I definitely want the flight control computer burnt in before I sit on the airplane.

I was thinking more of physical components, like an aluminum bracket, and you don't want a part with metal fatigue being installed as new.

What's the best way for a startup to store and manage user accounts?
I've written two sites in plain HTML/JS hosted on GH Pages to which I want to add users and eventually charge money for subscriptions However when I google "adding users to your site/startup" I cant find any articles on platforms or services that manage the IT aspect of managing users info and storing passwords securely, etc. So I want to ask you guys what do startups usually use for setting up their users account and related management software?

Asked another way, if I get a server on Netlify, Heroku, etc what framework could get me started with built in secure authentication?
Just to clarify, if you're transferring an H-1B visa you're moving from one offered H-1B visa advertised job to another H-1B visa advertised job - you are not able to transfer the H-1B visa to a regularly posted job... so your options are restricted to finding another H-1B visa that fits your precise skill set - again likely written up by their companies HR to specifically target you as an employee... And you need to do all that without pissing off your current employer enough that he finds fault with your work and tries to get you kicked out before you can transfer?

Seems easy.

there is some data that should be off limits, such as the route someones kids take to school, or the most likely times when someones house will be unoccupied, in other words data that could be weaponized to the detriment of society.
Let me explain. The principal advantage of full flow system over regular staged combustion is higher Isp of the engine.

Higher Isp of the engine is achieved because the pressure in the chamber of full flow engine is higher, than chamber pressure of staged combustion engine.

The pressure in the chamber is higher because pumps produce higher pressure.

Pumps can produce higher pressure, because with full flow pumps have more power driving them than with staged combustion. Power here is roughly equal to volume flow (m^3 / s) multiplied by pressure drop (N / m^2). Full flow scheme gives you more volume flow, since all the propellant is used to turn turbines.

So even though all the propellant in both cases is burned in the chamber, Isp is higher with full flow scheme. Rocket engine maximizes momentum of the exhaust, not the energy, which is conserved.

I like to think of it this way: the H1B program is well-intentioned, but has been hijacked to a large degree by outsourcing companies and corporations just looking to cut costs to the detriment of American workers. There are companies using the program in a good way, but there are also a lot using it in a bad way so you get a mix of opinions in comment threads like this one.

On the low-skill immigration side, it can be a good thing when immigrants come to areas with plenty of jobs and act as supplementary labor rather than as direct competition. For example, in some urban centers, immigrants make up a large portion of nannies because working parents need help raising kids, but local residents often don't want to do that kind of work. The net result is more productive parents and an immigrant labor pool fulfilling a needed role. On the other hand, in flyover states you tend to have a different set of labor supply and demand situations and low skill immigrants can be detrimental. Most HN commenters are yuppies rather than rural residents, so you get more emphasis on immigration being a good thing.

I thought the RAM estimation was (1) benchmark your backend, (2) benchmark your memcache<->backend, (3) measure peak traffic performance requirements, (4) provide enough RAM that you reduce the latency to acceptable levels during peak traffic. If you don't have measurements of the first three you're shooting from the hip. It is workload dependent, but the more measurements you have, the better you can estimate.

Immigrants have indeed contributed to the tech industry, no doubt. We want more of these, but H-1Bs don’t found companies.

Also, is the implication of SoftBank being Japanese or Alibaba being Chinese, or AirBus being European, Spotify Scandinavian a bad thing? Should we seek to syphon all innovation to ourselves? Should those be American companies?
Another way is to require companies to offer green card sponsorship for any employee that asks. Sweat shops that use H1B to hire cheap labor are not going to invest in that kind of thing, especially since the end result is that they have less leverage over the employee.
