Cars are built to mostly recirculate the cabin air when the recirculate option is turned on. Note that cabins are not fully sealed from the outside. You have multiple vents located throughout the car whose job is to keep the outside elements away and let the cabin "breathe".

Leave it on recirculate unless you are defrosting your windows.

Chornobyl's exclusion zone covered small part of contaminated area only. My parent's home is in contaminated area, but nobody was evacuated. Cancer rate is 2.5x larger at average in four regions of Ukraine, which are near to Chornobyl. I saw 6m (20 foot) wide circle of dead grass at about 800m from my parents home, where a hot particle landed. Both my neighbors are died because of cancer. I live in clear region, but my lungs was very radioactive for few years, because of my visits to parents.

Another good read on time and clocks:

> By the 16th century, European cities were so well synchronized that Rabelais could state “a city without bells is like a blind man without a stick.” The clock and the bells it chimed synchronized the relations among men.

> Clock time is a fungible measure of sacrifice. Of all measurement instruments, the clock is the most valuable because so many of the things we sacrifice to create are not fungible. The massive clock towers of Europe, with their enormous loud and resonant bells, broadcasting time fairly across the town and even the countryside, rather than the last relics of the medieval, were the first building block of the wealthy modern world.

> Versions of the Official Alpine Linux Docker images (since v3.3) contain a NULL password for the `root` user. This vulnerability appears to be the result of a regression introduced in December of 2015.

Emphasis mine.

If this tells us something is that how inconsequential is that.

A lot of software already runs with uid 0 inside a container. So, if you got an RCE in that software, you've got a container root anyway. Containers normally do not expose anything else but the target daemon to the network, so cracking in through a non-privileged daemon is unlikely.

Container's root does not map to host's root, so any intrusion is most likely limited to the container if detected soon enough (though it's far from being bullet-proof).
Einstein already eliminated universal time.
Part of many personal issues is that you "cheat yourself", or simply avoid tough topics (psychoanalysts call that resistance). A good therapist uncovers these topics, helps you to face them, and supports you in finding ways to deal with them. It is hard for me to imagine how one could do that without a human counterpart.

So yes, Google Play has let you rotate your key for a few years now, but a) Riot/Android was set up before that was a thing, b) It gives Google the ability to push their own updates to your app, which some of the more paranoid users might object to. So we set it back up with our own key again this time, but this time will protect it with our lives...

Edit: https://developer.android.com/studio/publish/app-signing#app... is the type of key rotation i was talking about here.

Landlords can suck, but most leases are templates, and are not actually written by the landlord. Putting liability on them means that landlords suddenly are required to have a legal understanding of contract law (which, as I mentioned, is riddled with concepts like "ordinary wear and tear" and "reasonable accommodations" that aren't cut and dried). What that will do is disincentive individuals from going into the rental market, and consolidate the industry further towards those who have the resources to employ lawyers to draft said contracts and take disputes to court.
Or misleading legalese, plays on words, or pens.

For the latter, as one of my sibling posts points out the user will go "Huh, stupid password manager didn't fill out my password - I'll have to do it manually". Often the password manager even helps them do this in the name of user convenience.

Only Brick wall UX works. That's what WebAuthn does here. Don't offer the user a way to "continue anyway", don't ask them confusing questions, just a brick wall and no way forward.

The user will probably be emotional. Scammers work hard to make your users afraid, or horny, or confused, and so they really, really want to give their bank credentials to https://honest-this-is-your-bank.not-a-scam.example/tmp/back... and nothing you can tell them is going to make them stop wanting to do that.

The brick wall doesn't care about the user's emotional state and will stubbornly resist. Maybe the user will eventually realise it was a scam, maybe they won't, the brick wall doesn't know or care either way.

Brick Wall UX even helps the software engineer. When a manager asks if you can't just add a banner that says "Hi, this is our new web site, please continue to use your old credentials" and thus undo every second of training about phishing your users ever got the answer with a Brick Wall UX is that literally can't work. No matter how much they beg and cajole and swear it's just a temporary workaround, it will not work at all, so they're just going to have to go tell the Big Boss that no matter how much was spent on new-brand-name.example the login system will have to remain forever on login3.long-forgotten-brand.example because that's what some idiot picked five years ago then it was set up and too bad.

To me different impedances implies different electrolyte concentrations. That's my EE perspective, at least.
It is unethical, or at the very least, unsettling the way it is presented. I am actually in awe at how many folks - especially HN folks - are ok with this.

Years ago, I looked at my Google dashboard. They knew when i filed for taxes, how much was owed/reimbursed, my medical history. NONE of which I consented to Google using.

Google is constantly eroding the expectation of privacy we have wrt to our emails (and probably other things that are expected to stay private, if you are on android), and this bothers me on a fundamental level. And additionally, we have constructed a world for ourselves such that not using these services to not expose private information is practically not an option anymore.

I am a mixture of shocked and saddened that the HN crowd (at least so far, hudging from the comments) thinks it is a-OK for this to happen.
Everyone was concerned about the old big brothers: the government, the police,etc. Now the real big brothers are silently here already: Google, Amazon, Twitter, Facebook,etc. They can own the government and the police force if they want to, and all citizens, of course.

This isn't some 4,000 pound Tesla.

According to https://mi-xiaomi.net/specs/, the scooter uses 1.1 kWh per 100km. Let's say you ride this scooter 10 miles a day on your nice, short commute. That's roughly 0.2kWh. The average home uses ~35 kWh per day, so this is in the noise of household electricity usage.

Per https://www.epa.gov/energy/greenhouse-gases-equivalencies-ca... that's roughly 0.3 lbs of C02 in those 10 miles in the average US state. Obviously it's significantly lower than that in many places using nuclear, natural gas, and renewables, and it is decreasing annually everywhere.

According to https://www.answers.com/Q/How_much_carbon_dioxide_does_a_car..., the average car produces 0.6 lbs of C02 per mile, or 6 lbs of C02 in that 10-mile commute.

So the electric scooter isn't quite zero, but it's insignificant at less than 5% of the emissions of an average car.

If your software is heavily CPU-bound, and the difference matters for you, you can likely find or build a highly optimized image for your particular number-crunching task.

If your software is I/O-bound, and is written in a language like Python or Ruby, and sits idle waiting for requests for significant time anyway, CPU performance is likely not key for you. This also represents the majority case, AFAICT.

That settlement tied their hands competitively, made them think thrice before playing dirty and took the wind out of their sails. The settlement is what permitted Apple and Google to exist in the first place, so that they could launch the iPhone and Android.

Amazon was utterly irrelevant back then, they were a book store FFS. The investment into Apple was happening in the middle of the anti-trust fight, for crying out loud. And Google was invented also during that time and would have gone exactly nowhere with an IE monopoly.

MS crushed Linux on the desktop and they use it just like anybody else on the server. They even included it in Windows, Linux for them is not a competitor, it's a tool.
In the paper you linked to a GAN is used to generate fake data. This fake data can help when training a classifier, just like any other data augmentation method.

I could not find any papers about using GANs to clean up radio signals. It could probably work if you have large datasets of both clean and noisy signals, but in this context you most likely don’t. And even if you did what makes you think denoising with GANs would work better than traditional methods?

Just because it’s a hot buzzword doesn’t mean you should use it.
I have a pedantic correction.

The lowest number this article talks about being bad is 945ppm. A ppm of 600 is discussed as "fairly low" co2 levels. They are clearly not boohooing over the entire range of 1-2000.

> We collaborate inside proprietary environments, such as Slack and Google Hangouts. Most of the chat and messaging systems in use today are also proprietary and closed. So are most video-conferencing systems and the codecs they use.

This one in particular worries me. Having access mailing list conversations and IRC logs provides such a rich history of open source development. I worry about every open source project moving to github / slack, where we may not have nearly as good a record of conversations that formed the software in 20 - 30 years.

On the other hand you won't see any argument from me that these services provide an easier workflow than what existed before, and maybe that easier workflow opening development up to a wider community is more important.
It's not a few megabytes, it's a few hundred to a thousand megabytes saved, on average. Multiplied by a thousand containers, and much larger layers on build servers, plus bandwidth, it makes a difference.

Worst case for slower processes, things take longer. Worst case for more disk use, things start crashing. For general cases, the former is preferable.

I have serious food allergies and celiac disease in addition to allergies/sensitivities to ingredients of cleaning products. I have problems entering are staying in a lot of environments, pretty much anywhere that I don’t have control over the air or access to fresh air.

The results on the toaster are not surprising. I’ve worried about toast smoke in coffee shops before because small amounts of gluten or allergens can make me sick.

It’s great that they are measuring concentrations of chemicals in the air related to cleaners. Something like someone spraying air freshener or mopping the floor with Pinesol makes me feel ill, and continued exposure will make me sneeze and my eyes turn red and so forth.

It’s amazing how casual people are about this. I sat down at the bar the other day and immediately the bartender started spraying Windex all over and wiping a wall. I had to rinse out my nose, and gained a headache. It definitely ruined the experience for me, but most people don’t think twice.

The possibility is raised that “The dominant source of VOCs in Los Angeles is now emissions from consumer products, including toiletries and cleaning fluids.“ Again, not a surprise. A statistic that quote to people is that about 5% of VOC emissions in the United States come from dryer vents, from mostly unnecessary chemicals in detergent and dryer sheets. Almost every single chemical product that is packaged for consumers and sold in plastic bottles at stores makes me very, very sick. Conditioners, shampoo, clothing detergent, pesticides, air freshener, candles soaps, fabric softener, floor cleaners, dish soap, glass cleaner. The annoying thing is that while the base formulation of these is bad enough, the part that is the worst for me is the completely unnecessary fragrances.
Yes, it is still a lot of heat. But to a lay reader, it might be easy to believe that the pool needing to be able to cool the reactor means that the pool has to cool an operating plant during an accident which is incorrect. I was just trying to make the distinction here. Also the drop from (your very approx numbers) 50 MW to 5 MW is mostly exponential - and so very quickly drops away from 50 MW. After that, any remaining heat is diffuse enough to not actually boil away water from the pool. Fuel-melting risk (which is not the chain reaction restarting for any who may be limited in fission plant understanding) is generally only a concern for the first couple days after reactor shutdown.
I think it's meant to be a subtle addition to overall feel when user lands on the page. I've not seen this happen in SaaS products, however, most product marketing/landing pages have a certain "uniqueness" to create a brand/product perception by employing such effects. One of the examples I can think of is Stripe, all the mix of graphics and animations on their product landing pages adds a bit to the overall feel. One other community platform that stands out from design point of view is IndieHackers. Ofcourse, HN has its own charm.

The reason I'll go for 10Gbps router and a 10Gbps switch is because if you put a NAS in your home network then the gigabit speeds will never be achieved again (various reasons, including LAN chatter). And also because I'll buy a 10Gbps-enabled machine and would like to be able to work with the data on my NAS with 1.25GB/s.

That is not as crazy as it sounds. The problem with CO2 is the fact that we're burning oil that was previously safely sequestered deep below the surface, thus increasing dramatically the overal amount of CO2 in the atmosphere.

The carbon from trees is part of the short term cycle, it was 'already in the environment'. The idea being of course that you burn biomass that is produced on purpose, or the byproduct of industrial activities, instead of massively cutting down trees in wild forrests. In this case, yes you're stil releasing carbon into the atmosphere, but the thing you're burning absorbed the carbon before so it's neutral.

Good filters are of course needed to prevent soot and particulates from polluting the air.

Yet another hit piece. It's disgusting how obvious and desperate these are getting.

I don't like Google, but stating that collecting data is bad just because, doesn't sell it for me. Oh, and this refers to data already available to the general public.

It makes me wonder if there is something behind. What's the agenda behind all these hit pieces? I really don't know.
