Charging the customers at point of purchase is perfectly fine and equivalent. Customers are already indirectly paying, the point is to move that cost to a point where it's super obvious and affects purchasing decisions.

Customers as a group were already paying the cost of the garbage, but there was no pressure on the manufacturers to reduce it. Once you make the change then the total cost is the same, but now reducing packaging can improve a manufacturer's profit margin[1], even if it costs them a tiny bit more to make! This pushes things toward reduced waste, with the total number of [shelf price + garbage harm] dropping by some number of pennies.

[1] Even if you charge the customer directly, presumably the manufacturer still wants to hit a specific shelf price.

At least 3 hours before bedtime is usually a good practice, as others noticed though it may be possible for one to exercise just before and have a good nights sleep.

Exercising in the evening is optimal for muscle growth as power is maximal[0] and it's better for recovery, though there are other factors such as daily schedule and I've often heard people saying that working out at morning has a good psychological effect.

Whatever is best for ones consistency and goals.

I wonder why Boeing didn’t they design new, longer landing gear instead of moving the engines forward?

Still, that means doubling your traffic adds a fixed amount of computation due to the log n component. That doesn't turn 16x into 64x. It turns 16x into 16x+y, where if you 16x again it turns into 256x+2y.

Logs grow slowly.
And one more thing - trim tabs should be separate airfoils, not an electronically set setting exactly for the purpose of reliability.

That way, an elevator should always have more authority than the trim tab, and be able to overpower it if it fails.

On other hand, independent trim tabs can work as reserve control surfaces if hydraulics fail.

The same design thinking is behind having engine reverse locks being physical parts, separately powered, and operated independently of electronic engine controls: a hard lock will always be able to overpower haywire electronics.

Same with emergency chassis deployment system on smaller planes, they are often designed to be able to physically disconnect/overpower motors that pull chassis, or chassis cowers if they jam or electronics bugs out.

Yes. This is a really powerful concept. By way of example, here a periodic table of data structures [0] that I think has been on HN before. The authors show that there are gaps in the arrangement they've developed, and thus predict types of data structure that haven't yet been researched.

Well...no...it's definitely not "all" being computer generated. The human creator made all the sounds and then gave the program some rules for combining them and manipulating them based on the human's aesthetic and compositional preferences. On the spectrum between human-generated and computer-generated this is very close to the human side.
Agreed.

> Soldered CPUs are unfortunately inevitable on modern ones...

To be fair, even on desktop replacing a CPU on the same motherboard is a pretty niche thing in my experience. Not to say people don't do this, but most of the people I know upgrade both at the same time, either because of incompatiblity or because of substantial gains with the newer MB. So soldering the two together is not as bad as glueing keyboard to the motherboard in my eyes.
Not a direct answer, but what you’re more or less asking is “why did they not modernize the 757 instead?” The answer is type ratings. Pilots can fly certain classes of planes based on common training. I.E. the 757 and 767 are common enough you can be trained for both at the same time. The issue with changing geometry of the 737 is you have to then retrain pilots against a new type instead of letting them take an orientation course on the new plane.

Honestly if the accidents did not happen we’d be calling them geniuses. After all, that’s why the 737 is the best selling plane ever.
I wonder why Lenovo doesn't lean into this.

Clearly there is a market for people wanting this kind of machine to the extent they are jumping through hoops for it.

I have a maxed out T470P (stock) and it's a cracking little machine and while the keyboard is by modern standards excellent that's because the bar shifted, it's still not as nice as the one on my old R50 was.

France get's around 80% of its energy from nuclear and recycles the uranium so the half life of the fuel is in 100s of years instead of 1000s[0].

The chinese are going to leap frog the US in nuclear tech with their thorium reactor research[1].

The biggest issue with the US adopting nuclear is the cost and political will(less jobs). Natural gas, coal and other fuels sources are much cheaper up front costs.

What the Hell happened to informative titles?
Yes it is universal healthcare but one of the biggest complaints merely attacks the word "free".

The complain is that how can something be "free" when someone else has to pay for it. The definition of free literally means that someone else has to pay for it (externalities and labor to extract resources from the land count as payment). Real "free" anything where nobody pays anything doesn't exist. It's a strawman.
FYI, international calls are essentially free thank to VoIP. If you can download a DVD iso, you can make a phone call for the same price , plus the cost of accessing a local phone line at the terminating end. You pay for monthly access for your local internet and the remote phone network, but it's not 1990s 10c/minute

The only difference between trump and any other right leaning politician since the 80s is that trump says the quiet parts out loud.

Being a criminal doesn't automatically win you a ~90% party approval rating for wanting to build a massive racism wall or banning Muslims from entering the country. A hegemonic power structure and violent ideology does that. To say that the horrible shit trump has been pushing is not a symptom of a larger structure is to ignore the fact that equivalent horrifying injustices have also been committed by other Republicans (ICE, Patriot Act, invasion of iraq) and Democrats (civilian drone strikes, refugee child concentration camps) alike.
Yep, it's hard to avoid the "back in my day" feel but there is a qualitative difference in how we are raising current generations here, Daniel is vastly less self-sufficient than I was at the same age.
Of course they told about different things. Distinction between self/other is a definition of a person.

But at the same time they spoke about the same thing. If you killed a person, you would be a murderer, and it doesn't matter what definition of a person you use. There are some small differences though, like killing a toddler seems not so bad, if toddler is not a person yet.

I personally believe that toddler is not a person yet. Homo Sapiencs pup becomes a person somewhere between 1 yo and 3 yo. At 1 yo she learns to walk, and gets location independance, she needs some time to learn to be independant, and then at 3 yo she get into psychological crisis, when she learn what the difference between "Me", "Parents", "My desires", "Parents desires", "Rules" and so on. So 3 yo is absolutely the point where she is a person already. While less than 1 yo she is not a person, but external and disconnected physically limb of her parents.

To me, advantage is archtectural, that I would not have specify which parameters of request are considered or how are they processed. Disadvantage is semantic, returning 403 instead of 429. But original article states returning 403 anyway.

And also, regarding rate limiting by IP, I think it should be done for 10x-100x of single user limit, just as first line of defense. Also nginx rate limiting has notion of burst which helps filter out "smart" crawlers, which unlike users, send requests for hours.

OK, I think we're fully in agreement here, modulo terminology. You are using "true positive" to mean that the watch correctly predicted a positive score on the medical test. And these are the people who may be treated, some of them unnecessarily.
Yes, there is no such thing as laziness. It's a bizarre concept in that the closest thing that exists to the meaning of the word is actual belief in the delusion that it exists.

What the hell is going on?

These are real trends but I have a different answer to the opening question: the elites are failing, they don't seem better than the rest of us any more.

And I don't think it's just a matter of explosion of information available online. They're really not as sharp and competent as their predecessors, not as good, definitely not nearly as bold.

The reason Trump could bulldoze through two America's most powerful political dynasties is not Hillary's emails on Wikileaks but their weak candidates who had to rely completely on warchests, pundits, media and party machine. And the machine didn't fail them. They failed the machine.
Most commercially successful artists are "supported" by collectors and/or institutions. That's what makes their work a good investment. To become eligible for that kind of support, an artist's work has to be deemed relevant by someone with a degree of clout. Not all collectors care about the relevance of the art they buy: some are just looking for a prestigious investment. But somewhere along the line, any successful artist has convinced some people that they are the real thing.

It's not nice that so many writers parrot that the solution is "more pilot training." Under the hypothesis that there needs to be a solution (one that I think is correct), then the answer of more training amounts to mere hope. One hopes that the pilot a) knows and b) remembers to turn off the autopilot when the emergency starts.

Not just that it matches the medical test, I'm saying that the watch is objectively correct in detecting an irregular heartbeat. The problem is that we don't know what to do with that data, which is different from the test making a mistake.

There are other situations where it actually is a huge problem that the test makes a mistake some percent of the time. It's important to distinguish the two problems.

On the one hand, some very good points. I think a survey of 20th century history strongly supports the idea that Big Media helped determine what kinds of leadership we got, and so it must be the case that 21st century internet media are doing the same. The comparisons of similar trends in education and commerce are worth reading (if over-long).

On the other hand, the underlying assumption is that the revolt against elite policy preferences, not only in the U.S. but in Europe and elsewhere, is entirely devoid of rational motivation. It discounts without comment the possibility that the pre-internet style of governance had substantive problems which the working class didn't like (e.g. globalization leading to a race to the bottom in manufacturing wages).

Surely the new methods of information access and distribution are having an impact. But it's not the only, or even necessarily the most important, driver.

This is a garbage post. I read as much as I could but it is full of basic errors like this: "The cost of a university education grew linearly, as the number of global college graduates grew exponentially. As a result, college degrees aren’t as valuable as they once were."

The number of anything grows exponentially because population grows exponentially. It doesn't mean anything. Earlier they say "big brands are in decline" because GM and Ford lost market share. Well, are big brands in decline or just those two? Were they replaced by a bunch of small brands or just Honda and Toyota?
