The 8086 could move memory _way_ faster than the 8080 could! Also the ACK's memmove/memcpy is truly dreadful. I need to replace it with hand-tooled assembler ASAP. It's tougher than it looks, though; the 8080 only has two register pairs once you've allocated one for the frame pointer...

It also doesn't help cursor movement as much as you'd think; editors don't address characters very much, instead preferring to address lines. For that you still need to scan forwards or backwards looking for line breaks. It would let you use memchr and memrchr to find them, though.

What's funny is that the further removed up the totem pole a role is, the more people assume they do less and less.

I love this article. Parents today spend more than twice as much time today with their kids today than fifty years ago: https://www.economist.com/graphic-detail/2017/11/27/parents-.... Fat lot of good that did the last couple of generations.

Parents spend too much time apologizing for prioritizing their careers, and it’s particularly unfair to women. Studies repeatedly fail to show significant and durable results from different kinds of parenting styles. But you know what is shown, in study after study, as highly correlated with children's’ long term prosperity? Parental income.

The big deal is that it is done since 5+ years and they are postponing the opening because of a million minor issues without having any kind of schedule for fixing them. And whenever they are just about ready they find a million new issues.

The big deal is that there is a lot of technology in there which now has to be replaced because it is reaching its end of life without ever being used.

The big deal is that this is a waste of taxpayer money. If this was privately financed I wouldn't care either but it isn't. At this point whoever is working there is just milking us.

If someone other than the child can waive those rights, then they never had rights[0] in the first place.

Accusing the media who published the evidence is a thing that is happening. Here. And also somewhere else. It seems to ignore it would be somewhat odd. Heavily connected in Washington powerbroking, caught out, blame the media. Carreyou is unlikely to go to jail and face the death penalty this time. In fact his corrupt accuser will be treated with the withering contempt she deserves. She won't be able to get people to ignore the idiocy of it because we hate Donald Trump.

Same principle. Same technique. Parallels to media under threat. On subject. I'm sorry if it's inconvenient for anyone to face up to because they prefer one party over another.
My recollection is that even the individual areas of the ship were not networked with each other at all, so the whole ship relies on humans to relay commands around. The whole ship was designed this way to fight Cylons, and indeed had beat them. The Cylons were thought extinct, so the new generation of ships were all networked and thoroughly pwned as soon as the Cylons reappeared.

On the streets this may be so, but I'm convinced many rich high-profile deniers are simply liars. They're making hay while the sun shines (manageably). They'll have read their Tainter et al, and know the wealthy are likely to be able to buy themselves a plum spot from which to view the collapse.

> This one is not particularly dangerous (U-238 is barely radioactive)

No, and uranium ore isn't that concentrated either (they probably didn't use high grade stuff).

Though Zn-65, Rb-106, Po-210 and Pb-210 aren't as nice but the concentrations would probably have been negligible, otherwise I would stay away from those.

I remember cloud chamber experiments we did at a special laboratory when in high school and it was really nice to see the beta radiation being deflected by a magnetic field and curl up a bit.

Actually that's not true. This is pretty much only a thing in the US. All across Europe you can get soft unpasteurized cheeses in any large supermarket with a good cheese selection. Stuff like Brie de Meaux, Reblochon, or the Belgian Herve, or even proper Camembert falls in this category.

MPEG-DASH and HLS both use segments. I think one reason is to allow for dynamic quality switching: if the bandwidth drops, the player can simply start pulling segments encoded at a lower bitrate. This is harder to do with byte-range, since bytes don't map to time cleanly.

> Fresh or marinated meat: Iron in the myoglobin changes from ferrous to ferric and globin is denatured-the red color is lost.

For better or worse, it doesn't seem likely that the bioavailability is identical between ferrous and ferric iron. How significant are such changes? It'd be nice to see the results of some RCTs on rodents comparing this process to fresh and heat treated. I imagine high pressure would be nutritionally better or worse depending on the food.

Yes, I will try to build a cloud chamber myself, it is not particularly difficult. Low-grade needle sources should also be obtainable.

> "A group of nuclear scientists examined the designs and declared them to be unworkable, expensive and very inefficient."

Which hits _all_ the selling points for a public transport project in the UK.
This is obviously subjective and just my opinion, but let me add more depth to justify why I hold that opinion a bit more.

Facilities-wise I was talking about lack of seats, lack of spacious and modern and frankly sometimes clean bathrooms, lack of sufficient staff doing things like passport checking and security, lack of physical space for movement of people through the airport, lack of food/drink and shopping quality and variety, particularly past security. All of these apply to both, with Schonefeld being noticeably worse on every point.

Capacity - All I can say is that at both, there are slow-moving queues of people at gates that restrict the movement of people trying to get to other gates. There is more throughput of people now than the airports were designed for - they're tautologically over capacity - if they weren't then this wouldn't happen, as it doesn't at most other airports.

Public transport - this one's subjective and depends on usecase, and I'm not claiming it's terrible. It works, and sure it's relatively quick. But it's exactly those connections (from Tegel) that bring the inconvenience for two reasons - the first is that it's more difficult to navigate to the center having to make connections if you don't know the system (i.e. for tourists). The second is if you have heavy luggage - it's really not convenient at all to lug bags onto and off of connections, especially buses. If you're a local who knows the networks and you're doing a short flight with hand luggage, I agree that in that usecase it's fine.

---

A bit meta now: I think it's amazing and I'm genuinely pleased to see that you're not only disagreeing with my opinions, but coming to the defence of these airports and outwardly saying they're really good, along with other commenters. I worded my original comment quite strongly and matter-of-factly because I honestly thought that 'everyone' would hold broadly the same views. Anecdotally, I've never talked to anyone living in Berlin who disagreed with me on any of this, and I've never imagined whilst being in either of these airports that anyone else there could be thinking 'this is great'. I'm amazed to see how wrong I was, and I love to be exposed to the breadth of opinions that exist out there, through forums like HN, just because the scale of the internet allows them to surface. Always love to have a good debate about such things, it makes me remember the counter points I'm overlooking and/or discover new ones and rethink my original opinions a bit.

Political action, economic incentives and individual lifestyles are all inter-dependent. We need to acknowledge that at this point, no single action can save us.

So using reusable cups may not on its own solve global heating... But neither will any single election, tax or international agreement.

Instead of telling each other “what you’re doing is not solving everything therefore it’s useless”, we should be saying “what you’re doing is a good first step, and here are other ideas for doing more”.

The new terminal is pretty good, but what's more impressive to me about this is how bad it is.

It's so clearly incomplete that opening the preferences launched a JSON editor window in Visual Studio (not VSCode).

The level of openness it takes to open such a central utility built by what would historically be a low-profile team is quite remarkable, and I am convinced will result in an excellent product ... in time.

"You're trying to pull more than reasonably supported 1k signatures. Do you want to skip this step?"
I'd be delighted if that were to happen, impractical though it might be. Only if every product and company had to do the same, including all their externalities. That would both incentivise and enable people to shop and invest wisely. Colour code and grade them just like EU energy efficiency labels - which were so successful in pushing to higher efficiency they had to re-rate them all.

Right now it's almost impossible to know the impact of what you buy, or which is better. Or how the impact of some produce available year round varies across the year. I know buying a lettuce in winter is going to have larger impact than in summer, but I have no way to quantify it.

It would also be an excellent starting point for building a carbon tax, that could slowly escalate to punitive.
I am worried that people switch to re-usable cups and say: "Well, I've done my part, I'm good."
I am not disagreeing with any particular technical point here, but I am struck reading the thread that there are two sides of a debate - one that is "Gosh GPG has had a fundamental problem for a decade and its terrible we as the internet have not solved it and now the bill comes due" and the other side is "Where the hell did that come from"

I am on the WTF side - GPG is synonymous in my mind with Public / Private keypairs and now this needs re-evaluating.
