You can have it both ways. Have a section of facts and statistics along with links. And have a section of opinion.

Media companies are heavy on opinion, and shockingly short on full facts. The vast majority of articles never do much work to explain where they get their information - usually its "a study shows this" or "Jane said that" without linking the study or the FULL statement and context in which Jane said what she said.

The thing that is frustrating is because of this we all just read from news sources we agree with. It's impossible to show people how they're wrong if you don't link original sources and I just have to take it on your word that it meant exactly what it meant.

I say this as someone who actually engages with people who disagree with me but with the quality of most news articles it's basically impossible to convince people of something against their current views using them.
Or how about "I'm happy to provide that information for reference and background checks and such once we've reached an agreement here."
It leads to a lot of issues with the end design of everything. You either have to reconstruct the heap and all the pointers involved, or it has to be loaded at a known address. With things like ASLR, and a bunch of other security features this ends up difficult or impossible to do directly anymore. Along with that, it also means that the runtimes aren't cross-compatible at load time so weird differences might leak out (little or big endianess, etc.). It leads to a lot of headaches because of changing systems underneath it.

OnePlus seems to be a favored line for Lineage. You'll notice that the One, a 5(!) year old phone, is still on the initial-adopters list for 16.0. The 3T, two years old, has 6GB ram and still stands with the latest flagships in terms of raw power. The whole line is known for being really easy to put ROMs onto and being a great bang for your buck, and in theory any concerns about Chinese software would go away given that you're putting a new OS on there.
I think you have a point and a lot of replies are missing it.

Tacit acceptance of Sci-Hub is tacit acceptance that some laws don't matter and everyone knows it. That's certainly an ethical stance with implications. It's not necessarily a bad stance (D&D would call it "chaotic good") and it is I think my own stance, but once you decide that laws are secondary to your personal and professional needs if you don't get caught, you're likely to use the same argument in other respects. Citing the original paper instead of the Sci-Hub URL only increases the extent to which you're pretending to follow the law.

Wikipedia has primary sources linked, yes, but it has its own biases. It tries not to, but it still has them to some extent, perhaps just in terms of what sections have been written and what haven't based on editors' interests. If you use Wikipedia to find primary sources, you're filtering your research through those biases. That has direct implications, and indirect implications for ethics in that you've decided this filtering is acceptable to you and also that it's acceptable (and perhaps required) not to acknowledge it. (And yes, of course there are other biases in terms of what university libraries stock, what previous academics have written about, what funding agencies are interested in, etc. I'd say that how much you pay attention to these potential biases and whether you see them as significant is also a question of ethics.)
I would imagine that Chinese students study Japanese imperialism a lot more than a far away war they didn't materially participate in. But I don't know for sure. In America we study both because the US was involved in both theaters.

It also depends on what devices people have donated for them to test with. If they don't have an S6 on hand, it's harder to target.
But you’re part of the problem, not part of the solution so... but yeah the Q7 is nice. BTW no problems whatsoever with device connectivity with the Model 3. And the X is a moving target; it’s improved all the time so past experience does not indicate the current situation.
For CSS i find a text editor and two browsers live showing the changes to be most efficient. I have one or more live real browsers even with a IDE environment.
Recently some colleagues started using the type annotations in the latest python3. Really excited for this feature! It’s going to make a lot of our production systems safer to work with.

And of course Rust is a great technology, etc.
Yea, that's probably fair. I didn't mean to suggest there's no scope for improvement or investment. But I suspect that you and I differ on our estimates of the degree to which this is possible, particularly without fundamentally changing the platforms and drastically reducing their value for legitimate usage.

The existence of the gap also doesn't change the fact that my experience is that implicit in the majority of the mainstream conversation about these topics is is an imagining of tech giants as wielders of unlimited power over their billions of users, and I'm skeptical that they'd be satisfied with most/any of the points in the valley you describe.

Not to mention that the flipside of public opinion is that the caprices of an algorithm are even more hated than their cases of leniency! All of the suggestions you make are going to increase false positives, and the PR backlash I've seen from that is far worse than the backlash to unmoderated content.

That isn't to say that there isn't room for reasonable complaint, but most people are really, really stupid, and even worse, entirely unconcerned with the consistency of their objections (a problem exacerbated by the fact that different vocal subgroups complain about different problems, and our various media will happily signal-boost all of them). Again, I don't see a solution that threads the needle effectively other than blunt restrictions, leaving everyone worse off but neutering the worst of the PR damage.
I can vouch for the One. Nice device. Lineage runs perfect. Now if I could only get aftermarket screens that are tempered...
Aside from the low COP, the market is much smaller (utilitity gas availability).
> There’s really no benefit to decreasing consumption of electricity. There’s no difference between decreasing demand by 1W and increasing solar output by 1W.

This ignores the sunlight that reflects back into space, and if conversion into electricity and slow return to heat actually increases the amount of energy that the planet can effectively absorb.

At some level, it's just a question of if the planet would heat up by painting the deserts black -- and I suspect that the answer is "yes".
Rodgers wants Blues move as Benrahma has Chelsea message
Older models of either Google or Oneplus phones seem fine, I have been using a Nexus 6p with no problems other than some battery life but that's expected given how long it's been used.
Honest question. What does this have to do with the topic?
I loved my 3T as a piece of hardware. Only problem was I couldn't live with Google spyware, and Android without gapps - despite all the wonderful work done by this team - is barely functional as a modern smartphone, sadly.
Probably because S6 has Exynos and not Snapdragon SOC.
I purchased a OnePlus 5T (previous gen) about a month back, and I'm extremely happy with it. I splurged a bit, as the 5T comes in at ~$400, but you can find the 3T on Amazon for ~$250.
> 1J of energy is 1J of energy. If the sun just hits the desert floor, it’ll heat up the earth immediately. If you collect the energy and convert (some of) it to electricity, whatever’s converted successfully won’t heat up the planet immediately, but it’ll end up back in the form of heat eventually.

This is also true for water. I'm not sure exactly what you're saying.
In my view, this is a problem if each side is making claims without any attempt at quantifying or disclosing the relative magnitude of effects. That's a case where a reporter could do a little digging and fill in those details. For instance, how much dust? How is it stirred up? And so forth. You can still make of it what you will, but with better information.

I encounter the same thing dealing with engineers. They will list a variety of objections to an idea, or "risks," without any attempt at quantifying the issues involved. Managers do this too. If I ask for details, it becomes my job to research it.
> “These vast open areas are precious for their natural, historical and recreational qualities. But they are fragile, and no amount of mitigation can counter the damage that industrial-scale renewable energy projects would cause,” Fairchild told the supervisors. “Once destroyed, these landscapes can never be brought back.”

Because climate change won't destroy precious fragile landscapes? Okay, here's my deal: you get to keep your precious desert, but as long as you oppose local renewable energy, you can only subsist off the crops, livestock and other resources you can grow in the desert. Why should you benefit from the rest of us sacrificing our own landscapes to save ourselves when you aren't willing to do the same?
> both Uyghurs and Western Europeans having been Judeo-Christian for centuries.

Uyghurs are Muslim - which is most definitely not "Judeo-Christian" but is Abrahamic. The term "Judeo-Christian" is effectively erasure of Islam (intentional or not) and is typically used to suggest cultural distance between Islam and Judaism/Christianity
I don’t know whether the claim that solar farms cause dust storms is true or not, but it isn’t a matter of opinion. I want journalists to find experts and scientific evidence and tell me which side is telling the truth.
This comment is sort of funny because the term Judeo-Christian gained prominence is the 1940s as a political tool to unite christians and jews in America (forget all that historical baggage you guys are on the same team!), and here you're essentially doing the same. Maybe good intentioned, but still similar.

San Bernardino County is home to the Ivanpah Solar Power Facility [1], which is a mirror-focused solar thermal power plant. It generates a lot of glare and is controversial for its impact on animals. It also took several years to ramp up to its promised output.

Solar panels don't have problem with glare, but the landscape of the county has large viewsheds of sloping treeless desert, so any facility will have a large visual impact. It also disturbs the ground and replaces the desert scrub with actual bare ground, which is more susceptible to dust, and dust is a problem that plant operators try to combat [2], but have long accepted as an inconvenient reality of siting in the desert.

While I think making cars online sale only makes sense in terms of company operations. I am not exactly sure that making a car go from 37k to 35k will make such a difference in terms of sale.

Probably a good publicity stunt though.
Current Tesla Model X owner. Wanted to replace our other car (ICE) with an EV. Sat in the Model 3 for exactly 15 seconds before I said, "Nope!" Never warmed up to the whole "must hit GUI elements on an LCD with my finger while driving" thing Tesla has going on for almost anything you want to do: A/C, headlights, suspension height, whatever. Interior is still second-rate. Steering column adjustment was a joke. The interior somehow felt claustrophobic. I don't know how they managed that given the room they had to work with.

Went down the street to Jaguar and bought an I-PACE. Sure, it's got a handful of "first gen" issues, but I have no real regrets. Given the choice between heading out of the garage in the Model X and the I-PACE, I've been choosing the I-PACE for the past week. Could be because of the novelty of the thing, but I sort of like things like Bluetooth actually working. I'll use the Tesla when I'm going far enough to need to use the superchargers. But I actually haven't used a supercharger in over a year now.
Hopefully with no April Fools antifeatures this time around?
Do you similarly feel that the telephone shouldn't have been rolled out until we could ensure that people couldn't speak about objectionable things, paved roads should have waited on ensuring that getaway cars wouldn't work on them, and the printing press should've been gated on technology that ensured it couldn't print falsehoods? As you can imagine, there are a trillion and one other examples I could bring up: you could ask the same about pretty much every sufficiently big advance in technology and the new structures enabled by it.

This is a serious question, not a rhetorical one: the responsibility line is unclear to me, but it seems to me that there's a level of Ludditic absolutism around the topic of Internet platforms that I don't see anywhere else, and it's possible that I'm missing the variable that makes it relevant here where it wasn't elsewhere.
> Github tab icons are purely decorative

I actually agreed with that one. He made a pretty compelling argument. The icons aren't universal, and I have to read the words every time anyway.
I'm not sure where you got that >90% after 50 years metric from. I was under the impression degradation per year is about 0.8%. Which should make the panels drop below 90% of initial in 13 years itself.
if you miss being in a team, why not build one. There are now so many challenging opportunities that you wouldn't otherwise have the time or capital for

coincidentally, I'm also 31 in a similar situation. Probably will automate/hire for the day to day stuff, then work on a hardware project.

I hadnt heard this point of view yet. I never saw a desert as something worth preserving, quite the contrary actually. Afforestation projects to green deserts seem absolutely wonderful. Why do you think its a biome worth preserving? Its places hostile to life. Are there negative effects caused by a lack of deserts?

edit: In case anyone else wonders, there would be a negative effect, as deserts are net carbon sinks.

I drove a 1994 Honda Accord DX stick for 20 years. It had 247000 miles on the meter when the dash stopped working three years before I replaced it with a Chevy Spark EV. Great car, it was still on the original clutch although it was using a bit of oil.

Now I have a Model 3 Performance because it’s amazing, it’s what I was saving for driving the Accord all those years.
i agree with this, but find the complexity of writing assembly with modern processors instruction sets requires quite specialized knowledge.
This 100%. The icons are _not_ purely decorative, they're important visual anchors. They are consistently relevant and descriptive. They've been around for ages now so even if they weren't straightforward devs have learned them already.

It would be like changing the save button because no one uses floppies anymore.

Last commit on files is one of the first things I look at when scanning a new repo.

Everything has externalities, but imho carbon emitted today is way worse than a smallish amount of toxic waste in 30 years.

The worst case scenario for toxic waste is probably the Hanford Site, which is obviously awful but it's not exactly causing global climate catastrophe like carbon might.
Further, Tesla does not include the costs of a home charger, nor the cost of the yearly EV tax imposed by 17 states.
Where did they say they're closing all their stores? All they said was that they were moving sales to online only. They'll still have service centers and other physical locations unless there's a source somewhere that says they're closing all physical locations...
That's a great idea. I suggest putting it on the arable farmland that supplies their communities. Let them figure out how to get crops from the desert.
I work quite a lot with SQLite since is the foundation of https://redisql.com/

The JSON module is really a god send! It allows to do things that otherwise would be extremely painful, difficult or not ergonomic.

Just to take few examples, here (http://redbeardlab.tech/rediSQL/blog/JaaS/) is a simple way to store JSON and doing manipulation on it, it would have been impossible without the JSON module.

In this other examples (http://redbeardlab.tech/rediSQL/blog/golang/using-redisql-wi...) I use the module to avoid computation on the client and I leave the extraction of the value to SQLite, very convenient if you ask me.
It's still not out yet, so it won't have LOS support for at least a few months, but this new phone seems value packed:

I think HN is actually a poster child of strong moderation on social media, because it remains relevant by being one of the most regulated platforms. There is a reason this place hasn’t devolved into complete and utter uselessness as well as why you rarely see any form of political debate, and it’s exactly because this places isn’t liberatarian in its approach to free speech.

Free speech comes with responsibility, and part of that responsibility is to make sure people aren’t legally monetising videos of children for pedofiles.

I know it’s not always a popular opinion, but I think social media has been hiding from its responsibility for far too long, and I’m personally happy the EU is stepping in to regulate it.

Big tech companies shouldn’t be able to get away with things no one else could simply by being big. Especially not when it’s used to undermine the foundation of our society. If someone uses your platform for a network of pedos, or to commit genocide then you are also responsible for enabling it in my opinion.
Will they accept nuclear reactors though?

If you're going to ban these, then offer a non-fossil-fuel alternative that could work.
Yes, of course; I'm pretty much of the opinion that it's basically impossible to write correct C code because it's so easy to make mistakes in. However, it is easy to write code that generally works, more so than in Rust, which puts up abstractions designed to prevent every single kind of mistake, some of which you might not even know exist because you've just started learning programming.

Which approach is better? Not sure. But that's a different question.

Is your point that we should stop building any solar or wind? Because if that is not your point, I don't understand what you're trying to say.
Different places have different rebates. One should not assume your location has none, although that’s certainly possible.
Somewhat tangential, but is there a guide to a complete and full list of steps needed to make a lineage-flashed phone physically secure? As in - stopping access to data if someone has unlimited physical access and <$1MM in equipment / funding.

E.g. do I need to put a lock on recovery? Disable ADB? Disable root? Disable developer mode? Enable encryption? etc.
I yield that my potential high point in terms of scale and complexity are objectively higher, but I feel like we are solving the same problems over and again with various permutations of bandaids and baling wire.

>It's ironic, because the left, not the right, has spent nearly the last 50 years promoting pedophilia.

... What? Your evidence is that Salon.com had one article about people who specifically avoid acting on their urges?

>But what is kind of shocking is how anti-free-speech so many on this site are. I'm old enough to remember the idealistic - although rather fatuous in hindsight - early days of the "internet culture" which promoted John Perry Barlow's "A Declaration of the Independence of Cyberspace" [0] and John Gilmore's sentiment that "The Net interprets censorship as damage and routes around it." [1]

The difference is that many of us have seen how bad groups have benefited from the current state of affairs since then. It was easy to be idealistic about free speech on the internet back when it was almost solely populated by academic types. But the world changed, and we don't have to be dogmatic about old ideals.

>>When Barlow said “the fact remains that there is not much one can do about bad behavior online except to take faith that the vast majority of what goes on there is not bad behavior,” his position was that we should accept the current state of affairs because there is literally no room for improvement. [...] In my opinion, Barlow’s opinions on online behavior, given his standing and influence were irresponsible. [...] Saying “we can do nothing” is like saying it’s not worth having laws or standards because we can’t achieve perfection.

It is, but someone needs to write compiler backends.
Tip for looking up other versions of a file in a local repository when you don't want to update to it: TortoiseGit on Windows can open the repo browser to show the state for a certain commit from the repository history window. Not a lot of people seem to know this. And to this date, I have found no other client with that capability.
