Also, they're shorting Tesla. They say that their position on Tesla is due to their research (as opposed to the outcome of their research being driven by their attitude), and that's fair. Nonetheless, I'd be as skeptical of their claim that Teslas are significantly more dangerous than average as I am of Musk's claim that full autonomy will be available and safe before 2020.

Just guessing here, but suppose an attacker is able to get unprivileged code to run on your machine (by taking over some process). He is now able to extract secrets from other processes on the machine that he ordinarily wouldn't have access to. Think SSL keys etc.

But I believe you're right in that those exploits are not as dangerous in a non-shared hosting scenario.

I actually have the opposite problem. For some reason, debugging JS with IntelliJ (where I'm most productive) doesn't work nicely on FF so I have to keep a Chrome tab open, and it's just unusable since it's determined to open a tab on Webpack's bundled file which is enormous and lags for like 10 seconds on each page reload. FF is most wonderful in comparison when I have to debug in the browser.

I'd rather maintain a file system of FLAC files, and skip anything like iTunes that can potentially mess with the library. Then it's just data that gets backed up with anything else worth keeping. Add an extra 1MB of space for the FLAC source code if you're really paranoid.

I'm not sure how you can say that changing from white to brown rice is the cure when people are consuming 'unhealthy amounts of soft drinks and processed food'.

To bring it back to HN, switching rice types is optimizing an already fast function to make it a bit faster while leaving the obvious bottleneck untouched.

This is thought process is exactly what my earlier comments were addressing. Worrying about white rice when consuming cookies and soda all day. A person should worry about things like rice and fresh potatoes after getting rid of all the garbage from their diet.

It would make for good Sci-Fi premise as an explanation for the Great Filter[1]. Some advanced civilization keeps destroying planets that have life or are ideal for it but the first heuristic they use to do it fast doesn't catch all cases. Earth is below the threshold so we get by, for now...

It's wind. It can't be a constant. Winds vary.

So all that matters is having a suitable mix, including wind, to produce low or no emission power. It will also include hydro and pumped storage, of which Ireland has several. There's probably not many suitable sites they aren't already using. Solar and possibly wave or tidal too.

That they're not going fast enough (no one is) still doesn't make it greenwashing.

This mentality that only writing code matters needs to stop. Open source projects (or any project for that matter) is way more than just writing code and the people doing the "other" work need to be recognized and encouraged to continuing that.

The lack of such people is exactly the major cause of burnout from maintainers who just want to code.

Tesla is a virtuous startup. Boeing is an evil defense contractor. What do you expect.
I'm setting up a home server and decided to just go with Ryzen. You get a bunch of server features (ECC RAM, lots of PCIE lanes, and lots of cores) for a lot less cash than the equivalent EPYC build.

Obviously EPYC has a place but for the home usecase you could use a Ryzen as a substitution for Intel Xeons because of the baseline features of Ryzen.
It's a little funny to see the "use AMD!" comments --- since from what I understand, Intel's optimisations that lead to these side-channels are specifically for performance, so using AMD instead of Intel might mean the same amount performance loss.

Unfortunately that does not solve anything.

This is because the amount generated varies between 0 and the max. installed capacity at any time, depending on the weather.

This means that in practice the grid must still assume 0 in order to avoid blackouts.
It does not mean that other sources can be wound down because wind produces 37% of electricity needs.

The entire global equities market has been going crazy for the past decade, in no small part due to the historically low interest rates.

Claiming that housing prices will keep going up is like claiming that the stock market will keep going up. Even if it is true in the long run, you can have recessions or depressions, some that may last decades (see Japan's stock market since the 90s).

Bull runs don't last forever. Rental yields are abysmal in top cities, sometimes barely enough to cover the unit's tax burden & maintenance. If equities go down, so will the value of these units.

I noticed as much, one was with Dish Networks and I made sure to cite specific relevant contract clauses, provided documentation like "on date A at time B I spoke with rep C who provided employee id number D and said E providing confirmation number F...", then the Dish rep still tried to barter down the charges until I stated "I do not think we can reach a resolution and plan to deal with the cc company directly to proceed" for a reversal to be processed. This was ~$500, I'm sure it gets much worse.

What you call a hydronic under floor heating can be a very good system if done properly. It is called low temperature underfloor water heating where I live and pretty much everyone puts them in newly built houses. Here usually there is a panel on every floor with mixing valves that set water temperature for the floor and flow on a per room basis. I can see however how it can be bad trying to heat up an older less well insulated house.

My underfloor water heating is powered by a wood pellet burner. The house is very well insulated so the burner is off May till late October. The burner has an outside temperature sensor and since it was initially set I haven't really had to mess with the settings beyond testing how to change it. The temperature in the house is pretty much constant 21C or 69F during the heating season. If I want to change it the response time is around 1-2 hours so although I don't use those settings one can imagine programming it for 5 degrees lower when you're at work and for it to bring up the temperature to the normal setting before you arrive.

As for the cost, I have a rather small 3 bedroom detached house (110 sq.meters or 1185 sq.feet), I live in a climate where we have -20deg.C winters (eastern Europe) on top of a rather windy hill, and I pay around 460 Eur per year for the fuel for the burner. I usually burn 2.5 tons of it. This is only to heat the house. Water heating for shower use etc uses electric on demand heating. Compare this to when I was living in a city in the north of UK, so much milder climate, in a 2 bedroom semi-detached house smaller than my current house with typical central heating (or what is called hydronic heating here) using gas fired burner. I would pay around 700-800GBP so almost 900EUR per year of heating so almost exactly double. I realise I'm comparing here two houses built 50 years from each other, but the UK climate is much milder and the older house is only semi detached. This should work in its favour. Still I spend half of what I used to.
Bullshit. Its spooks like you destroying the free world.
> Has Tesla ever said that Autopilot is intended to allow the driver to take his focus off the road?

What the hell is the point of it then?
If the complementing fossil source is gas, the power plants can be regulated quickly enough to follow the wind production. So every percent more wind power means, that the corresponding amout of gas is not burnt. And no CO2 for it is produced.
I've only had three interactions with the police in my very old life and I have come very close to dying each time. Not sure if I just ran into three people on extremely bad days but I can't emphasize enough how lucky you are if you have never had to interact with United States law enforcement. You don't know what you're missing, and that's a good thing. Keep missing it.

The idea of an algorithmic bug leading to false arrests is not exactly the worst case scenario I can imagine, but it's really close to the worst case scenario I can imagine.
TARD, TARD, TARD.

Let's all whine about a word!
Then and only then they use other power sources. Even if those sources are coal, so what? It’s not like the coal plants have to run 24/7 even when the wind is blowing.
Seriously? The article and the previous one linked really don't explain her objections to the grand jury system and I have to do my own research to figure that out?

What comically bad coverage. How do you write an article about someone having objections to something (esp of this magnitude) without explaining what their objections are nor what that thing even is?

I have nfi what a grand jury is without further research, so neither do 90% of people reading the article. Probably because explaining it alone outs it as a ridiculous, self-evidently awful system, and CNN wouldn't want to do that.

Interesting, it seems to only include fairly easily valued assets which can generate an income such as property and equity. Actually art works under such a scheme would be even more attractive as stores of value, not less, which could be seen as one of the market distortions I was talking about.

I think it re-enforces the confusion that wind/solar is the best strategy to reduce CO2 emissions. It may be in some places, but not everywhere, it may even be counter-productive. For instance, France has low CO2 emission as most of its electricity is from nuclear plants. If global warming is the most immediate treat, it would make little sense to dismantle them now. There are much better investments to make than buying solar panels. That's an issue I'm having with the green party in France who doesn't seem to recognize this.

ARM is more less examined than less vulnerable. Most of their cores aren't speculative execution out-of-order, that's expensive in power and silicon real estate/cost, but they have 13 vulnerable to Spectre, including 1 known for the 2018 Rogue System Register Read which like this latest set for Intel is design specific. It would be wise to assume there are more vulnerabilities hiding, the name Spectre was chosen because we'll be haunted by it for a long time. Also one of their newest designs is vulnerable to Meltdown, see the whole list here: https://developer.arm.com/support/arm-security-updates/specu...
>I find it truly remarkable how on the one hand HN can rage for days over Boeing introducing software with flaws that killed people and on the other hand when it's Tesla's software flaws killing people in a similarly repeatable manner

In the Boeing, the pilots were aware and trying to mitigate the problems, but the system prevented that and ended up crashing the plane.

If the Tesla kept accelerating and steered straight into the truck, after the driver disengaged autopilot because he saw the truck, this would be a fair comparison. We don't know whether that happened, but it seems highly unlikely.
I went the CD road too and use a squeezebox. Very fine.

Except that ripping audio cd is tedious. Does anyone know about a music player that, once it sees a new CD, plays it and rips it at the same time (so I just play my CD and, next time, magic !, my CD is ripped)
The consumer IS the problem. Coca Cola can manufacture better bottles IF the consumer were willing to pay for it.

But they aren't. Would you pay twice the price for the same coke, but in a glass bottle?

It's the consumers demand for cheaper products, and subsequent disposal, that's the issue.

We could regulate away plastic bottles and prices would jump, and some portion of the population would rightly protest that it's the poor who suffer.
> Would growing a lot of plants help perhaps?

It doesn't help much unless there are many plants in a small contained area.

All the studies, including NASA ones, are done in sealed environments, as soon as you test them in real life you basically need to fill the room with plants.

Air filtering is hard to do right, consume a lot of energy and/or requires filters that have to be changed often. If we were logical we'd straight up ban cars in our city centers, which would remove most of the pollution in 1st world countries' cities.

----- from : https://www.gardenmyths.com/garden-myth-born-plants-dont-pur...

The NASA study shows that plants remove a small amount of certain chemicals from the air. A 1500 sq ft home would need around 400 large plants to remove most of the tested chemicals–something that is not practical. Reports that list the best plants for the job are probably not valid lists. The microbes in the soil of the pot are more efficient at removing chemicals than the plants themselves.

Reporters who write about the ability of plants to remove pollutants either have not read the reference they quote (most likely case) or they have cherry picked the data that suits their story. Most have probably just reported what previous reporters said. The original reporters made the following mistakes:

ignored the lab conditions used to carry out the experiments
used the very best number in the report, ie 90%, and extrapolated it to all plants and all chemicals
extrapolated results for 3 chemicals to “all pollutants”
completely ignored the scientists own conclusions, namely microbes and charcoal filters remove most of the chemicals
Are those batteries actually good enough at cycling that this would work though? What is the cost of degradation?
So then we agree it's a problem.

You were also never going to test your scale with a weight that is stored in a vault in Paris. So far you would test with a replica of a replica of that weight, in the best case (getting a copy directly from the local standards body). With the new definition in principle anybody can create an object that weighs exactly one kg and sell it to you.
