I learned recently that all land in China is owned by the government. Citizens can only obtain short and long-term leases for the use of land. It's slightly tangential, but does anyone know how this affects real estate prices?
It's all true, but to protect yourself from all that, you're going to have to keep your data away from Apple as well (i.e no iCloud drive/photos/calendar/mail, etc)

Not running algorithms for ad targeting doesn't make the data any more secure. Only end-to-end encryption does.
You can play chicken about actually going to court over the matter, too, by writing a professional-looking demand letter stating your claim and mailing it return-receipt requested to the corporation's service agent.

Costs about $10 (not including labor, because IMO it's personally satisfying), and has roughly a one-in-three chance of them simply paying you to avoid the expense of small claims court.
We were using Colab and Azure Notebooks before, but we found a few not covered requirements. For example:

* We added a way for students to present their projects / analysis in an static blog-looking version of their notebooks. Here's an example: https://notebooks.ai/martinzugnoni/how-to-trade-bitcoin-with...

They can share that version with classmates, and classmates can "fork" the project and do their own changes to it.

* Also, we added a custom JupyterLab extension called "solutions" that allow the teacher to mark certains parts of the notebooks as assignment solution and it will be hidden for the student until they decide to reveal it. Here's how it works:

(teacher) https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/7065401/50402147-1...

(student) https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/7065401/50402146-1...

We now have the ability to keep adding educational relates stuff to it, without depending on Google or Microsoft, that are not focussed on this space.
Have you tried running one of those near major road intersections, with lots of cars idling?

I spend all day in the office with windows looking on a parking lot with two intersections nearby. Considering how much it always stinks of car exhaust right outside, I have a strong suspicion that ventilation that everyone so praises here might not be all that beneficial. But $100+ for CO2 detector is too expensive for where I live.

There are tons of papers on this subject (thanks Sci-Hub!), but the results they report vary so much that it is difficult to draw any conclusions.
In a way this is even worse as it further disenfranchises individuals from the legal system.

What's really needed is legislation that assigns direct punitive liability to drafters/pushers of contracts that continue to include outright nonsensical terms. Failing that it would be interesting if someone tried going after the practice as improperly providing incorrect legal advice - its basic goal is to mislead the opposing party into not knowing their own rights.

Most popular way to make electricity today is to heat up lots of water (via burning coal or uranium) to temperatures on the order of 500 degrees C (1000 F), and have the resulting steam power the turbine, which generates electricity by spinning magnets. This process is generally 20-40% efficient, that is, only 20-40% of generated energy is turned into electricity. The rest of the energy is waste heat of steam that cooled down so much that it's no longer economical to generate electricity from it (because the efficiency of the process goes down as the temperature difference between working fluid and environment goes down). The result is that more than half of the energy simply disappears in the thin air.

To increase efficiency, many cities run cogeneration plant, where the waste heat from electricity generation is piped into municipal heating system. In this scenario, the incandescent bulbs are wasteful way to heat the house, because it only uses 20-40% of the energy of the fuel, while municipal heating uses only waste energy to produce eletricity.
Yes, but now in some of the use cases they demoed the data itself never leaves the device. The AI models are running directly on the device, so there is no need to transmit user data to cloud servers. This is on contrast to all of their apps running in the cloud and your data living centrally off device. I find this new approach to be a nice balance for user privacy and the necessity of data aggregation in order for the models to be constructed.
Yep. "pars minuta prima" -- first small part, and "pars minuta secunda" -- second small part.
1. Airplanes and boats will still need gas for a while
2. We’ll need to suck carbon out of the atmosphere anyway. So a process like this will be necessary, even if in the end the product needn’t be turned back into gasoline. This will be costly, but it’s the price we pay for all of the fuel we burn currently.
I hope not :(

From your HN comments, it feels like the world would be a poorer and darker place without you in it. People like you make a life worth living and a long one worth striving for. If we all take care of our health (with a little chemical help along the way) maybe we’ll all get to see what’s next together? :)
But there is no connection to an actual outcome. Is this reducing my expected lifespan by a year? Two years? Or ten years? I might care about the latter, hard for me to get worked up about the former.

The fact that we’ve been doing this a long time means the effect couldn’t be all that large, or else we would’ve noticed something (e.g. a stark difference between those who cook at home and those who eat out).
Wow I wonder if anyone has done a study on any correlation between cabin CO2 levels and driver safety?
The way you talk about "choice" indicates you have a flawed and limited model of how choice actually works. Choices are contextual and entirely dependent upon circumstances. You should assume that people by-and-large make the best choice that is available to them. If they are dealing with this H1-B rules, they are doing so because this was better than the alternatives.

The problem with the H1-B is that it drastically limits future choices. Therefore people who made the logical choice at the time can end up, through no fault of their own, in a situation where they have to choose between bad and worse. It is entirely fair to blame the system for "forcing" these situations because it is doing so by DESIGN.

I just took a look at Park Merced to see what apartments and townhomes are going for there right now. You can get 3 bedroom homes there for under $5000 a month. Is it a trendy neighbourhood? No, but it does meet the criteria of being in SF. I'm sure you could find similar deals in other non-trendy areas like the Outer Sunset if you take the time to look.
No, fingerprinting is much deeper than that. Look at how DNS cookies work, for instance; you can create a serviceable fingerprint of a device just from how resolvers randomize multiple A records for the same label.
Vatican citizenship is based on having a job inside the Vatican, or at an apostolic nuncio (ie, embassy), or very rarely, being married to someone with such a job. Quitting the job means loss of citizenship. So it is no surprise nobody applies for work based visas with a Vatican passport.
Misinformation driven in part by conspiracy theories has increased the spread of measles back into areas where it was thought to be eradicated.

> An unfounded fear of vaccines has spread around the world in recent years, with childhood vaccination rates reportedly declining in several countries as a result. Nothing in the belief system of Orthodox Jews makes them any more likely to oppose vaccines, and several Orthodox rabbinical organizations have called on parents to vaccinate their children. But Hasidic Jews are prey to the same misinformation that has affected others, and some ultra-Orthodox rabbis have come out against vaccines.

My hypothesis is that, when the body is in a survival or self-repair mode, libido is placed on the backburner because it's just not that important to individual survival. If the body isn't seeking food, reproduction takes a higher priority. Someone else here was talking about how it might be related to a low body fat percentage, which would play into this hypothesis, and I am a fairly skinny guy(not scrawny or lanky, though).

Agreed. What's funny is that people now think Microsoft is this warm and fuzzy thing. They used to be far worse than they are today. For example, Microsoft Excel is nothing less than Microsoft's successful attempt to destroy Lotus 1-2-3.

Recently, Waring and his colleagues reanalyzed all 195 studies that have examined whether houseplants can filter the air. They found that some types of plants can remove higher amounts of VOCs than others. But once you factor in the effects of working in a large room, none of the plants are able to do much.

Waring told me to imagine a small office, 10 feet by 10 feet by eight feet. “You would have to put 1,000 plants in that office to have the same air-cleaning capacity of just changing over the air once per hour, which is the typical air-exchange rate in an office ventilation system,” he said. That’s 10 plants per square foot of floor space. Even if you chose the most effective type of VOC-filtering plant, you would still need one plant per square foot, Waring said.

My guess is you’re right, and in your local area ventilation may not help. Though it depends on distance from the road. Dissipation happens fairly quickly with distance iirc.

Haven’t been able to test at a freeway, mm co2 meter requires an electric outlet.
I disagree massively with this, to me Jupyter is a repl+ development environment + rapid prototyping in ETL/visualisation. There's no rule that they have to be used for exposition, or any writing at all. I don't know why you think this is a rule, or what you'd use as an alternative data-repl.
If you look at Electricity Map [1], you can see a real time view, as well as the inter-connectors.

This is a weird offering for an individual purchase. Look at the unique features:

1. Non folding stem: Adds durability for a rental, but the super quick fold is a huge part of the appeal of a scooter, because it means you can easily take it with you on the train, put it in the trunk of a car, or store it under your desk. If you didn't care about compactness, you'd probably buy an e-bike.

2. Huge battery: Adds to the cost and weight, which makes it more annoying to carry. Great for a rental where Bird is paying per charge, but very few people need to ride 30 miles between charges, and for those that do, they'd probably rather have an e-bike that is faster and more stable.

Banks Mining recently started a new opencast coal mine in Pont Valley in the North[0], and Druridge Bay is still at risk of being mined[1].

Also worth keeping in mind that a many coal power plants have just switched over to burning "biomass", which is a lovely sounding euphemism for burning wood, but is "green energy" and thus eligible for massive subsidies. Drax, the largest CO2 emitter in the UK, burns more wood than the UK produces, so a lot of it comes from forests being chopped down in the US.[2]

All right. We can do it as a proportion of population, as you wish. Given that zero Vatican citizens receive green cards or H1B visas in the US each year, the population corrected ratio of H1B visas and green cards granted to India vs granted to Vatican, having zero in the denominator, is actually "infinity" for both. Indian citizens receive infinitely more green cards and infinitely more H1B visas than Vatican citizens. Those are the actual numbers we get when using Vatican as a counter example. India is infinitely more privileged and favored here.

This reminds me of the work John Carmack did when he was writing QuakeWorld, which in 1996 was quite playable on a 56k modem! He started off predicting 300ms of lag on the client side, but it was too glitchy when the correction came in. He landed on a more conservative strategy, and his writeup is a touchstone of Computer Science lore for me:

https://fabiensanglard.net/quakeSource/johnc-log.aug.htm

I wonder if you could design a game around this by drawing BOTH the predicted motion and a ghost image of the last known verified server position of players, and then deliberately introduce 500ms of latency. The gameplay would then be about tricking your opponents into thinking you were going somewhere you're not.
