Implementation is really nice, actually. The display automatically switches to a white on black mode and the brightness is automatically regulated.

You can override either display setting (day/night and brightness) manually, if desired.

Given that it's an LCD, the performance is quite surprising. The blacks are very black. Just take a look at the set of controls at the bottom, is near impossible to see where the controls end and black bezel begins.
It couldn't enter the public domain until 2116 unless the original author explicitly released it, which they did not because almost nobody does that.

Ah I see..I had thought that producing fewer emissions than target/allowance would be given a credit they can sell to others. That is different than Credits for Carbon capture. Thanks for clarifying.
> It segmented the Java ecosystem into two parts.

I'd argue it vastly expanded the Java ecosystem, and the original part is unharmed. It's not necessarily getting unearned growth from the success of Android, but at the same time it's a huge stretch to say it was harmed.

Ask HN: Is now the best time to be alive?
I’ve been thinking a lot about how we live in a world of abundance, and somewhat more depressingly realizing that the earth is being ravaged by climate change and grateful to be alive now rather than 100 years from now.

Anyone else feel the same way?
We get ~10-15 scam calls per day on our landline here in the UK, so it's definitely not a US-only problem.
We don't have the whole story of their infrastructure and that a lot of Plaid's data sources are scraped and/or aggregated and repackaged in nonstandard ways. ACH and transaction tracking have been working fine for the last 20 years prior to a clever ML system.

I don't think I have unusual retinal damage. I've had it checked, which is way beyond the normal eye doctor appointment. I've always been an indoors person, very wary of excessive exposure. I'm getting older though, and that makes a huge difference. The retinas go, the lens darkens, the cornea darkens, floaters form, the pupil opens less, and so on. It's not one thing. I don't have any particular damage; it is all just normal aging.

My living room has a pair of 4000 lumen bulbs, a pair of 3900 lumen bulbs, and a couple normal bulbs. I have a master bedroom with something of the same style that is over 50% larger, so maybe 7000 lumens. (a comically huge bulb, 6 inch diameter and 1 foot tall) Smaller bedrooms just get 4000 lumens. The kitchen is 14 40-watt T12 bulbs, probably 2600 lumens each, which would total 36400 lumens. Those are indirect though, reflected off the ceiling.

My dad, even older than me, loves it. Sometimes my kids object, but it isn't as bad as direct sunlight.

If you live long enough, you WILL have damaged vision. This is a given. It is 100% certain to happen. You too will want bright bulbs everywhere.

Northerners also need the light to prevent seasonal depression.
Yet, for millions of people, the antidepressant they take makes the difference between a productive, engaged life and miserable penury or suicide.

How can that be?

The answer is GIGO. Feed garbage to your Hamilton scale, get garbage out. The "gold standard" is no better than your diagnoses, and depression is the diagnostic counterpart to a "wastebasket taxon", polyphyletic. The only way we know to distinguish one "depression" from the next is which med fixes it. Now, design a "gold-standard" protocol to evaluate those meds.

I think you misunderstand how "processing a node" works. It's a recursive algorithm. Even if you correctly identify an ALL node (which is not always easy) and say "hey process all these moves at the same time" then each move will result in a radically divergent search path that a GPU won't be able to handle.

Basically nothing in a parallel chess engine happens in lockstep. All the threads are always doing completely different things. One thread may be evaluating a position. One thread may be making a move. One thread may be taking back a move. One thread may be generating all pseudolegal moves. One thread may be generating captures. No thread is ever doing the same thing as another thread so there's no parallelism of the sort that can be exploited by a GPU.

You're likely looking at simplified diagrams of a search tree and seeing a circle that has lines that connect it to a layer of more circles and thinking "hey just do all those circles in parallel" but the way chess engines work is 100% different from that.

You're not the first person to have the idea to do alpha-beta search with a GPU. There have been many efforts, and several for chess specifically. They've all been kind of awkward and horrible and it's debatable whether or not you can even really call them alpha-beta. There are hundreds of people who make chess engines and it's not like they're all incompetent and never thought of using the GPU.

It’s more complex than that. Copyright only forbids copying. Truly independent arrival at the same work isn’t actionable. So if the only overlap in code is this sort of coincidental or “there is really only one way to do this” situations, you shouldn’t be found liable.

Think of it like I Want To Hold Your Hand by the Beatles. I bet 500 songs used the line “I feel happy inside,” but it’s not copyright infringement.

But if steal half the lyrics, it’s infringement. Same would be true for APIs, if they are found to be copyrightable.
I don't see how creating a compatibility layer makes it fair use. Unless you're only using 5% of the original API or have a strictly educational use you're going to be in violation. Even then you'll need to fight it out in court if the original party is litigious like Oracle and there's absolutely no guarantee that you'll get a jury that understands and is friendly to the concept for Fair Use. Media companies have been basically claiming that Fair Use is a myth for many years now, often successfully.
How Uber Hopes to Profit from Public Transit
Right? This is always the false dichotomy that gets put to us. "Either accept the ads or pay me 5 bucks a month"

5 bucks a month??!?! You were making 5 bucks a month off JUST ME WITH ADS?!!!!

But it's not that at all. It's simply that credit cards are so heinously inefficient and unreliable and costly to manage that they need to charge that amount of money to not lose money on average. Dealing with fraud and charge backs and the cut the banks take and the cost per transaction. It's just how terrible of a payment system credit cards really are.

If we were getting charged the actual price of the product, most people would happily pay! Load your browser up with 20 bucks and you'll have unobstructed internet for months.

I think this goal is pretty much what Brave is going for, they get a lot of criticism for their implementation here. Of course I'm not shocked, this is a hard problem, and the demand for the solution is irrationally low.
This looks really neat. It also looks like it might be stupidly hard. I could never get into Hyperlight Drifter for that reason; just got insanely frustrating.
Arguably taxpayers also get to choose who they vote for. You can argue about the effectiveness of the democratic process in the US but it feels a tad disingenuous to suggest we have no responsibilities in this system we are all apart of.
The entire story highlights the double standards of governments and the people they serve.

Government tells us if we have nothing to hide we shouldn't worry about the invasive intrusions into our privacy but when government's privacy is intruded they want to imprison people for it.
British Family Changed the Course of Engineering
I was curious about the code so I went to check it, it's written in Haskell, never seen Haskell before, it's really hard to follow for someone not used to it: https://github.com/hasura/graphql-engine/blob/master/server/...

Not sure how people enjoy FP.
That may not be the best example...
Just today I decided to switch to FF and try noscript experience. Works good enough so far. Funny that crippled experience is even better in some weird ways. I used to scroll reddit forums, now I can read just few first posts and that is good. I used to expand a lot of comments, now I can't expand them, but it saves time. Sure, self-control would be better, but that is good too :) It's good to know that without JavaScript I'll send less data to that anti-human industry.
I don't know what scenario you're envisioning, but I'm envisioning a scenario where the task a programmer works on is assigned to them by a supervisor, a project manager, a lead, a project planner or whatever other similar designation companies have.

The idea that non-trivial projects get built by engineers "selling" their ideas to each other doesn't align with my experience or even expectations. As a manager, I want my best developer to work on certain tasks, and not a junior developer. I don't want someone not familiar with the domain or technology to pick tasks which they have a high likelihood of failing at, etc, etc. Nothing controversial. Simple basic common sense.

Companies have ways to escalate concerns programmers have about the tasks themselves. And it could also be that programmers are invited to comment on the road map/big picture. But that is something different.
Although it only works for smallish files, that seems fairly useful for getting as much info as you can out of a corrupt but mostly UTF-8 file?

Any runes that aren't valid will come back as the replacement character. And you can count newlines and print the location of the error(s). You also have the index of the error.
Okay, we'll just have to agree to disagree on that then. :)

Apparently they are already recruiting stonemasons from all over Europe from other historic churches. The head of the reconstruction effort is, AFAIK the firmer head of of Cologne's cathedral stonemasonry / maintenance crew. And the first woman to reach such a position. She got recalled from retirement

Well, now that will definitely lead to shortage of the experts elsewhere in Europe. But I'm not too worried about Notre Dame. Could also proof to be a field day for archeologists from all over the world.
This is the sort of headline that fuels the likes of anti-vaxxers.
There was a great article on this a while back:

“A Fighter Pilot’s Guide to surviving on the roads” https://www.portsmouthctc.org.uk/a-fighter-pilots-guide-to-s...

> Only a small part of the retina, in the centre and called the fovea, can generate a high-resolution image. This is why we need to look directly at something, by moving our eyes, to see detail. The rest of the retina contributes to our visual experience by adding the peripheral detail — hence peripheral vision. Peripheral vision cannot resolve detail, which prevents the brain from being overloaded with too much information, but it is very good at detecting movement.

> Well, first, it is an unfortunate fact that if you are converging on a given point with another vehicle at the same speed, and assuming that you are both traveling in a straight line, then there is no apparent movement noticeable by the occupant of either vehicle. That is, to the driver of each vehicle, the other will remain in exactly the same position in the windscreen up to the point of impact. There is no relative movement — so our peripheral vision is not suited to detecting it.

> Now for the really interesting part. When we move our head and eyes to scan a scene, our eyes are incapable of moving smoothly across that scene and seeing everything. This makes perfect sense: just like trying to take a picture without holding the camera still. The image would be blurred. So, our clever brain overcomes this by moving our eyes (really fast, remember) in a series of jumps (called saccades) with very short pauses (called fixations and it is only during the pauses that an image is processed. Our brains fill in the gaps with a combination of peripheral vision and an assumption that what is in the gaps must be the same as what you see during the pauses.

Yeah. When evaluating a drug we should not only be looking overall, but if there is a subset of the test population for which it behaves differently. This is especially true for any diagnosis of exclusion.

Such a drug should be approved but with a big warning that it only works in some cases.

It's interesting how many companies simply shut down service rather than say give a warning and wait for a response (or at least start a clock).

Granted that would require people to communicate and use some form of reason.

Even DMCA for all its warts fires up a warning and has a response mechanism (granted other issues there).

My parents have a huge Viking gas range/hood, and they often prefer to use a small Ikea induction cooker for their meals.

I'm in the process planning a small cabin, and probably will go with the same thing. Ikea has an inexpensive "mini-kitchen" that I'll probably just add an induction cooker to.

'Remarkably, the patent explicitly states that: "if there is a hit at operation 302 [partial match using page offsets] and the physical address of the load or the store operations is not valid, the physical address check at operation 310 [full physical address match] may be considered as a hit"'

You can have "not wealthy parents" and still not get approval for financial aid if you're over a certain threshold. And plenty of people get into prestigious schools but don't have the grades/accolades to get a merit scholarship.

And with the cost of schools only rising, the impact on families that might appear "well off" only increases too. So people get loans. And maybe that loan will be worth it and the networking you do will pay for it. Or maybe it won't.

I would argue that for many people, unless it's not just an elite school but THE elite school, it probably doesn't pay off.
If the taxpayers actually cared about 1M defaulted student loans a year they could elect leaders who will take action.

Maybe you vote for a politician who will terminate federally guaranteed student loans. Maybe support one that will provide UBI, which will be adjusted based on student loan obligations. Maybe elect one that will reform the existing IBR/repayment options so 1M students are going into default every year.

But as we all know what your saying is a strawman when you have people like warran buffet paying less in taxes than his secretary. Obviously that’s not by accident and rich taxpayers have successfully organized/lobbied/passed multiple laws over the last 40 years providing tax breaks for the themselves and corporations.

I and I think most people would be happy to pay a small amount to each site we visit, but payments system to make the idea practical just doesn't exist. I for sure am not going to hand out my CC number everywhere; it's inconvenient, it's intrusive (full legal name, address, phone number), and I have no idea how securely and for how long they store that information.

I would really love to see a way to make small payments to sites that I visit simply and all managed in one place.
On the other hand, if you are a COBOL expert today, you will be in high demand and will make enormous amounts of money.

This is a deeply ignorant statement considering he's currently looking at being extracted to the US, who are considering a 175 year sentence. The article you're commenting on lists all the anomalies that happened with his case.

Having sex is a choice, there are risks involved, one of them is pregnancy.

Many people who aren't considered "rich" can raise children and be economically comfortable.

I'd encourage you to ask someone who grew up in poverty or with uneducated parents (who accidentally had children or decided to have four children knowing they couldn't afford it) if they'd willingly put a child through what they went through growing up and I think my point would be crystal clear.
The costs don't scale quite as well as you'd expect. Actually building, testing, and transporting the thing is really expensive. If you build 2, it's still a lot of expensive bespoke parts. Maybe if you build dozens the economies of scale start to pay off
