I have this problem as well (display staying on when there's no video signal) with an older PC monitor. I think it might be caused by the HDMI audio continuing to transmit while the video is blank. To test the hypothesis, try disabling your HDMI audio device driver temporarily and see if it fixes the problem (though then you don't have sound...). Of course, it could be something completely different...

it's always confusing when the title gets silently changed, and then there's comments complaining about a title that's no longer the title.
"cheap" versus "high-end" is not as clear a distinction as it seems. In fairness, it depends what you're looking for.

Carbon Fiber is lighter, ok, so call that the high-end one. But in reality, their durability is lousy -- in addition to being mostly-ruined by a crash, they do deteriorate over time. I know this first-hand as a colleague repairs carbon fiber frames [imagine lots of epoxy and carbon wraps], so I see a huge gamut of failures. Most of the frames coming in are probably 2-8 years old? Will be interesting to see how they 'wear' in the 10-20+ timeframe.

This, in comparison to steel frames, which have fantastic crash resistance (one of my frame's toptube has a huge dent in in for years no problem, and, another friend, a racer, finished a multi-day stage race with the headtube angle crunched-in after rear-ending a car early in the race). Also, provided they're rust-proof'd the frames last decades and can be repaired, modified.

I've been to ?a? ?the? Giant factory in Taiwan seeing them manufacture steel frames -- it was amazingly simple and primitive and mass-scale factory way out from Taipei, in the countryside.

I suppose another win for carbon is it enables lots of weird/cool frame shapes. There are shaped steel and aluminum tubes, but nothing like the options in carbon.

I think the weight advantage of carbon is lower than you'd expect -- high-end cromoly-steel frames are made from suprisingly thin tubing that is very sound.

Anyway, I am clearly a fan of steel frames and more randonneur-style riding. If I was into triathlons or time trials, I'd probably reply differently. And I also increasingly dislike throwaway culture and I don't believe these carbon frames hold up in the longterm.

Huh? The university system (for rich people) has nearly always been that way.

Don't you remember that blacks and women - incorrect group affiliations! - used to have a really hard time going to university?

Or the schools that generally didn't accept Jews? As I recall, the 'well-rounded student' euphemism was because Jewish people tended to do better on entrance tests, so there needed to be some justification for discounting that.

Or, recall how the universities (for rich people) used to have entrance examinations which were biased towards the material taught at prep schools? Funny how poorer people didn't learn so much Latin at their schools.

There's certainly places where 'individuals can study, and question, and learn' - try smaller universities where people aren't fighting for the name cachet.

And ... stop the bad habit of thinking "person X went to Name Cachet university therefore is more likely to be a good job candidate than person Y who went to Less Well Known university."

> It's an opinion.

Opinion articles are - by convention - designated as such. This allows journalistic institutions to distance themselves from things that are insufficiently sourced or are overtly one-sided.

This doesn't fall under that umbrella. It's presented as a piece of economic foreshadowing that Trump's threats are impacting the viability of China as a global manufacturing hub. Which, ok, prove it! Don't give us one company's stated stance, show the numbers. Give us more sources.

This is not good journalism.

> It’s the first biological evidence scientists have found that domesticated dogs might have evolved a specialized ability used expressly to communicate better with humans.

It could be the other way around: when that kind of ability appeared humans have very selectively decided to prefer dogs that had that trait. Dogs are pretty much a human creation (through centuries of selective breeding) so it's not really evolution rather selection when it comes to this particular example.
It would be interesting to look for genetic differences between human populations with a history of intensive domestication like the Maasai and populations that have no or only recent domestication like aboriginal Australians.

Always thought it would be pretty awesome to have a massive compost bin that could flip from side to side via pedal power. It would be easier to let air in, and make it so that it composted by aerobic bacteria instead of anaerobic, which results in a much fast composting process(and higher temperatures).

Yes this is genuinely news to me and sounds intriguing. I was hoping for some examples or an article about that phenomenon.
Did a cursory search and it seems to be common wisdom that all dog breeds have the same number of bones and muscles.

While there are many differences between breeds and individual dogs, there are also common factors that link them together. For example, all breeds have an excellent sense of smell and hearing and have the same number of bones which are tied together by the same number of muscles, tendons and ligaments.

> I don't get why people are so hung up on proof though.

The reason you look for proof is not that it gives you 100% security. It is the process of finding proof that helps us understand how secure a product is and what vulnerabilities need to be addressed. GHCQ's through examination of Huawei devices found problems with version control, and Huawei promised to fix those problems. This is how security could improve.

I think you also vastly underestimated how difficult it is to do version control for hardware due to extremely complex supply chain. If you examine products from any other brand, the situation is likely to be worse. I'm not suggesting Huawei's problems are acceptable. However, it is a misguided approach to decide which products are secure purely based on national origin rather technical merits.
How to use scraping to get ahead of your competition?
According to popular research, 61% of consumers visit a website to compare product pricing. So, one easy way for businesses to gain insight into their competitors and their pricing strategies is price scraping.

Price scraping helps you with Competitor Analysis in real time, determining pricing Strategy, analysis and targeted marketing.

This, in turn, helps you make informed decisions about your pricing and marketing strategies.

Ammonium nitrate is the superior propellant. It is the only one that is non-toxic. You get nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and water vapor in a 2-to-1 ratio.

Yes, it can detonate. There are ways to deal with this. Stronger containment is the obvious choice. One might try to ensure detonation to make performance more predictable. Another option is to locate the propellant at a distance from the user, ensuring that shrapnel goes away from the humans.

Every other propellant choice is horribly toxic. Air bags perform their intended purpose many times every day. Those people are poisoned. Perhaps they will die of cancer. Replacing the detonating airbags with toxic ones may end up killing many more people than we save.
RSUs are taxed the same as salary. If you don't like them gaining value, then sell them as soon as they vest, and that's 20% tax of $0.
Isn't this better described as selective breeding, rather than evolution?

Maybe we haven't consciously bred the trait into dogs, but we might have selected such dogs for breeding, over litter mates that never made eye contact.

That is a really good idea. Touch controls are nearly useless on a moving vehicle. It would be a lot better if Apple/Google came up with a standard tactile interface for their in-car offerings.

Don't get me wrong -- CarPlay/Android Auto are leagues ahead of what individual car makers have to offer. Having a standard system across all car makers is a good idea too. They just need to come up with a more tactile interface.

The touch screen doesn't necessarily have to go, though -- it could simply be disabled when the vehicle is moving.

Volkswagen, for example, have a rotary dial which lets you flip through all the items on the screen to select the one you like. It still requires the driver to glance at the screen, but at least it doesn't require them to touch the precise spot on the screen -- which IMO is more distracting. That said, even the rotary dial is not perfect as it can't be operated by touch only -- w/o taking your eyes off the road -- not unless you know the position of every single icon/control by heart.

> I think there is a disinformation campaign against Hong Kong people here at mainland (Actually, this should be "in fact", not "I think").

I have read some news articles along those lines, so I agree that's likely. And to be honest, this is expected.

> During the Umbrella Movement, I asked around for people's opinion, many believes HongKongers was seeking for separation rather than democracy. One thing that makes such disinformation campaign easy, I think is because the slogan is not hitting the real goal. It could be more clear if something like「我要真民主 (I want real democracy)」is run a long side with the slogan「我要真普選」. The key is to leave no gap for those disinformation campaigners to operate.

That's an interesting suggestion, which I have not thought of. I do think these details, especially the key slogans, need more work because they are important.

I think the deeper cause of these gaps and lack of clarity is that, their target audience was Hong Kong people, so the protestors missed how it would have been perceived by mainland people, and this is a real missed opportunity.

> Also, 蝗蟲論 (https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E8%9D%97%E8%9F%B2%E8%AB%96) is very harmful. Many of my family member, even young ones believes "HongKong people thinks we are locusts". I personally view this objectively (In short, "Then why you go there and brought all of their milks?"), but many people don't.

Thank you very much for your honest opinion. Points taken. And yes, I have heard of those sentiments towards parallel importers who are mainly from Mainland. At the same time, Hong Kong people have been blaming the Hong Kong government for its incompetence in balancing the needs for local residents and handling the mass demand from parallel importers. It would be better if the whole situation is kept civil.

I'm afraid not: 20172745 < 20187007. The IDs tell all.

You can also look at https://news.ycombinator.com/from?site=idlewords.com. In this case you were the bronze medalist, behind OrwellianChild and mrzool.
I love the general idea, but I'm not really impressed by some of the implementations. E.g. one of them uses /dev/urandom, another uses ChaCha20. So, e.g., how did the ChaCha20 generator get seeded? If you know the initial seed, don't you know the output for all time?

There's a guy on the net who has been generating hardware random numbers for perhaps 23 years, using radioactive decay. All things equal, I'd trust that method over ChaCha20. https://www.fourmilab.ch/hotbits/

And when I saw EPFL (i.e. people from Switzerland) I immediately thought of ID Quantique. They are a Swiss company that sell an RNG that attempts to exploit quantum effects. They send individual photons at a semi-transparent mirror and detect whether those photons are transmitted or reflected. If the hardware is implemented correctly, that seems pretty darn random. https://www.idquantique.com/random-number-generation/product...

But the League of Entropy guys from Switzerland chose /dev/urandom instead of quantum mechanics. Exactly whose /dev/urandom output? Is is a desktop computer sitting on some guy's desk? The Cloudflare article linked to EPFL, not to the specific project. It's like saying "we get our random bits from MIT". Huh? MIT is a big school. Exactly where at MIT?

Development of F22 started in 1980's. Last VAX machines were manufactured in 2005.

This is a good opportunity to educate the general [HN] community about dogs:

1. They can only see blue/yellow. Not like humans' RGB.

2. They are short sighted. For far away objects, their sight is like a T-Rex, they can see moving objects, not stationary objects. Remain still, and they can't see you. Then again, they can smell you, especially if it's downwind.

3. Their flicker fusion threshold is higher than humans. If you show them a cute mobile picture of a baby, they'll see a lot of flickering. As well, did you know lights have a flicker? If you think it's bad, it's even worse for dogs which can lead to stress.

"Four Colors Suffice" by Robin Wilson
Privacy often guides my tech choices, I do have a Facebook account for events but I don’t use their apps and I only log in when I’m invited to something. I try to use DDG though it’s almost impossible to avoid google in my language. And so on, but one area I can’t avoid is banks, and I’ve been wondering why they are sneaking past the privacy talks.

I’m Danish and we’re rather digitized. I mean, I have a national ID that can authenticate me anywhere that support it that runs in a mobile app. I use it for things like banking. Anyway, we also have a range of financial apps. Two are particularly interesting in terms of privacy. One of them is called mobilepay, and mainly handles transactions between small shops or when you need to send/request money between friends. As such it knows who my closest friends are more accurately than Facebook ever did, because I never Facebook chatted with people I see every day, I do however go to various events with them where we manage the bill with mobilepay. And since mobile pay isn’t just linked to a contact, but an actual phone number they have that too.

That’s not really the part that worries me though. It’s the way they track my purchases. Mobilepay lets you do electronic receipts, meaning they can read what you buy. It’s voluntary so you could opt out of it, but we have another app called Spir which helps you budget and organise your private economy by accessing your accounts through bank APIs. Spir can also see what you purchase, so even if you’re not opting into it, banks tack everything we buy unless we’re using cash. I’m not sure if this has to do with our national payment-card called Dankortet (kind of a mixed credit/debit card, but not exactly) or it’s just how modern transactions work. However that information is much more accurate than my search history.

I have anxiety, I also recently had a hemorrhoid, I’m fairly certain google might think I have cancer. My bank knows that’s wrong though, because they know I bought hemorrhoid medicine at the pharmacy.

GV has spam filtering, call screening, and lots of other useful features. Dunno how/if it would mess up your texting app though.
The article (and others at e.g. the BBC) seem to say dogs "evolved" this capability in "a remarkably short time".

Is it not fairer to suggest that this is not evolution/natural selection at work here, but rather just selective breeding? I can't think of another species of animal that has been so widely twisted and manipulated in appearance by human's selective breeding than dogs.

Seems odd to suggest that this part of a dogs' body was due to evolution, but that rest of the crazy variety in dogs' body is not? A trait like this that humans like seems like is an obvious thing to get selected surely?

Or is there some strong evidence to suggest that this was really was nothing to do with selective breeding?
