Your impression is correct. There's also an interest for anything sharing the same first letter as meaningful. Which is why that Berkeley Barbs thing makes sense. Even willing to substitute so long as the phonetics are there (ie Kids Korner)
They're a public company owned by their shareholders. This isn't their job.

Deriving the formula for the volume of a pyramid manually is nontrivial, usually requiring either calculus or careful application of Cavalieri's principle. I know how to get it but it's not practical to do on the spot, so I treat it as an idiom.
How keeping production away from China will help the oppressed?
By your very broad definition, so is a PRISON. Which would mean every country on the planet runs "concentration camps", and render the term meaningless.
Apple paying their workers the absolute minimum required by law is also not good, they have almost 1 trillion dollars ffs
Have that attitude about your purchases for 10 years, wasting at least $4000 a year, and you've wasted $40000. That's significant even if you do make $100k.

This is exactly correct, but unfortunately, because your first sentence is true, you're getting significantly downvoted.

It is an example of the paradox of tolerance: If a group believes in tolerance, absolutely, to the point that they tolerate intolerance, then over time, those who are intolerant will tend to gain power within the group and the tolerance will be eroded (except, of course, the tolerance of those intolerant beliefs that usurp them).

Absolutism of any kind is generally going to lead to problems in our imperfect, non-absolute world. Free speech maximalism is just one example of that. If we put people and their genuine needs before abstract principles, that will tend to be a better guide for how to make a society that serves everyone—and, indeed, allows the greatest freedom for the greatest number.

Not exactly "anyone can do this," but the first paragraph in the above link:

"The answer is an emphatic NO. In order to make good and useful contributions to mathematics, one does need to work hard, learn one’s field well, learn other fields and tools, ask questions, talk to other mathematicians, and think about the “big picture”. And yes, a reasonable amount of intelligence, patience, and maturity is also required. But one does not need some sort of magic “genius gene” that spontaneously generates ex nihilo deep insights, unexpected solutions to problems, or other supernatural abilities."
Pretty sure they banned these in the UK decades ago. From what I remember the argument was was they are particularly bad if the pedestrian is not fully grown adult.
There truly are few ways to waste taxpayer dollars more thoroughly than on the military.

Social security goes from taxpayer to retiree often to be spent immediately at market for goods and services useful to many fellow countrymen.

Medicare removes the burden of caring for your elderly from the lives of millions. Its a huge economic boom to not have your parents retirements costing you your time and productivity.

The military, the third largest expense, has three principle benefits - its a direct jobs program for ~3 million people (the enlisted proper military and their tertiary federal contractors supporting them). It keeps in business a dozen or so arms corporations that use their revenue to lobby congress to spend more on the military to make themselves and their investors more money. And it projects American power abroad to use gunpoint as a weapon of trade negotiation and to "maintain the peace" (even through ideological warfare) in our zones of trade globally.

The first two are obviously awful for what purpose they fulfill in a vacuum - you could much more cheaply just house 3-5 million people and give billionaires free money instead for a fraction of the actual cost of maintaining the US armed forces. And as a US citizen the idea that my tax money goes to maintain peace in the world for the benefit of all of mankind might be passably acceptable if there were no other choice, but organizations like UN peacekeepers exist (though palpably suck at) fulfilling a similar role except without the bias towards US economic interests. Perhaps without this one nation acting as world police collaborative organizations could fill the role, but probably not.

So it comes down to a moralistic argument - is it worth it to waste the time of millions of Americans to perpetuate a theater show dick waving competition with hostile dictatorships like Russia and China around the world for the express purpose of maintaining US economic imperialism. Because its really up to you - we slaughter hundreds of thousands of innocents in deserts and huts the world over but in exchange few nations have the spine to try engaging in organized warfare amongst their neighbors for fear of US intervention. There are benefits, its just if the costs we pay, and continue to pay and more each year, especially when any benefit that could generally be perceived as of universal benefit are things I would at least more generally like to see all of humanity not only pay but participate in the management of are worth it.
I'm not saying China is unstable. My implication was that maybe these massive USA based corporations might see China as more stable for business continuity. I know production is totally different, and understand some of the reasons for moving it to China. While I do not imagine them leaving, what do you think would happen if America lost these massive, global corporations to their biggest rival?

Absolutely. In the book I like above he gives a similar analogy: that most conversation is made up of little meaningless things, but that those meaningless things are essential to the more momentous things that build upon them. It would be ridiculous to require that all conversations between individuals be conducted with a third party observer, both for the logistical ramifications, but also because it would destroy the little things that are the building blocks of society, essentially.

I also like the bathroom door analogy. Everyone knows what you are doing, but we still insist that there is a door.
I think I've ever seen AC in a flat or a home only one time and it was a portable air conditioner in a rental home in the South.

But malls, offices and the like have AC.

I've never been in South America, but I'd say that the average weather conditions in France (less heat and humidity) makes AC less important.
You don’t need to dilute it to the entire volume of the earth’s supply to make it safe. Remember, we build granite countertops and eat nuts and go outside in the sunshine, all of which have large amounts of natural radiation.
As always, context matters. The shear scope and scale of China's protectionism, coupled with their flagrant disregard of international norms and aggressive, state sponsored campaign of industrial espionage is simply breathtaking. China has been waging a trade war for 20 years, it's time for everyone else to respond.
My point is Libra isn't needed for person-to-person or person-to-merchant transfers within India.

The international small amount transfer use-case is extremely rare and unlikely to take-off because of Libra.

In any case, you seem to be assuming Libra won't charge forex fees for converting between Libra and fiat currency. They have not said so. It is very likely they will charge.

I don't see any reason why the banks involved in exchanging Libra with fiat currency to behave any differently than they do today. They will play with the buy/sell rates to make money on both sides of the trade.
So if they have 5000 people working there, 5000 people will be looking for those "McJobs".

Many of them won't find another job, or at least not quick enough to provide food on the table.
> "Concentration camp" has a specific connotation.

In my personal experience, "concentration camp" has been applied specifically to mean the camps operated by the German government in the 1930's and 40's, camps which intentionally tortured and murdered millions of innocent Jews, and certain other "undesirables" and enemies of the Nazi regime.

When I hear that term, I personally think of emaciated prisoners wearing striped uniforms, packed into cramped wooden shelves. I think of hopeless people peering out from behind barbed wire fences suffering under a regime of forced labor and starvation. I think of horrific death chambers filled with poison gas and choking, dying human beings and towering piles of dead bodies.

I personally can't get those images out of my head when I hear the term "concentration camp" and I would guess most other people in the US conjure up the same images specifically tied to Nazi Germany when they hear that term.

But NPR has an interesting article about the meaning and historical usage of "concentration camp." The subject arose when someone used the term to describe the sites where Japanese Americans were forcibly relocated during WWII.

Greenery definitely helps. I live in Southern California where it can get very hot and my new apartment complex is full of trees and solar panels. It almost feels cool and damp when you're in the shade even if it's 38+

That's what it says in the article, I just think the interesting part is HOW the number of possibilities are narrowed down efficiently.
Depending on how you define it, I don't think Huawei is technically "state-owned", but because "communism" technically all business are owned by the PRC?

But it's not formally apart of the PRC.

Do I understand this correctly?
Define "foreign" country in the context of a multinational corporation? I'm not sure I understand what the significance of that word is. Companies can and do attempt to sway political policies in their favor in whatever country they are operating in, regardless of where that company was founded.
The difficulty of filtering out tritium from water is that tritium oxide is water and not some solution or colloid. Tritium is an isotope of hydrogen and reacts with oxygen to water, namely tritiated water.

One way is distillation because the boiling point of tritiated water is slightly above that of normal water (101.5°C instead of 100°C), but this seems to be a lot more difficult than distilling alcohol.
45°C in the desert or in the arid climate of the middle east is very bearable. 45°C in Europe is so terrible because of our high humidity. The more humid it is the less effective sweating is, and when the outside temperature is above ~37°C sweat is the only way we can cool our body to stay alive.

Given Apple's track record of being anti consumer and anti developer, I consider it bad capitalism to purchase anything from Apple.

I kind of assume HN knows the endless list of Apple sins, but if you didn't, their closed off system is the opposite of Linux mentality.

I don't think you will be happy, and you make like worse for your fellow developers and masses of humans.
You want it, but you aren't willing to pay what it costs to maintain it.
Maybe this is a bit of a taboo opinion for HN, but that was not a debate. That was an unprofessional side-show. Think about it, we spend multiple days with someone in front of congress if we don't like what they did, but we throw all the potential future leaders on a stage with no controlled moderation for one hour.

The AM radio shows I listen to handle this every day using technology. They do it live every day. If someone gets out of control, they get muted or kicked.

That format made it very difficult for me to respect any of those people. I felt like I was watching adult toddlers. The only way I get to see what any of those people are actually like is if I watch their interviews with Joe Rogan.
Climate fluctuations are becoming more and more of an emergency. I was at a farmer conference and the main speaker spoke about how bad it is for them. Lots of crops are dying. Some GMO crops customized for this climate are able to survive if they are timed to perfection. We should be very worried about our food sources

Export regulations don't require breaking E2E privacy for same-country citizens; and notable E2E cryptographic software is developed outside the US, so US restrictions do not apply to it. So I don't really follow this line of reasoning.

Funny, when i see "designed in california" i think "warm all year round, so that's why my iphone shuts down when i take it out in the -20 C winter air".

They should try to design in more places with varying climates. And considering the shitty mbpro keyboard, they should also try taking their laptops shudder outside to see how they work in a dusty environment.

What I mean is that the code

var a = f(x)
var b = g(y, a)

Isn't any different from:

g(y, f(x))

A lot of real world code I encounter doesn't bother with temporary values for everything and giving them explicit types, which is essentially the equivalent of just using inference here. Thus in this case inference isn't doing anything negative because the code would look like that regardless.
This is cool, but how is it privacy-preserving? The server gets to see my exact search terms, and also which tile areas I'm zooming in on.

That's what happens when un-educated people legislate about stuff they don't have any clue of. Same in Europe with the Article 13 copyright reform.

Problem is I do not see any reasonable way to get around this as a large chonk of the voter base is old, un-educated, tech-illiterate people... and politicians tend to cater to whatever they want (which is mostly law-and-order crap such as this).
I'll second that. Similar problem reading code. All that cruft reduces the signal to noise ratio. Most of the time when I'm reading code I don't care what the types are, just what it does at a high level. Without type inference, step one is always scan the code and screen out all the boilerplate to get at the actual logic. When a lot of the code is boilerplate I end up spending half my mental capacity just remembering the bits that actually do stuff. If it's really bad I'll even rewrite it in pseudocode in a comment. Interestingly, in swift my actual code and that pseudocode are almost identical. By contrast, obj-c, which some people claim is very readable because it is so verbose and Englishy, I find to be fairly unreadable. There's just so much noise that I'm parsing out and and ignoring like 80% of it. Even in swift some people still manage to write C style code that's half intermediate types and variable names which just obscure the functionality.

It is perfectly acceptable to me.

And this is the issue with Wayland vs X11 when it comes to compositing: Wayland forces it down your throat, either you like it or not, whereas X11 enables it but doesn't mandate it so if you dislike it you just don't use it.

(though this isn't the only problem Wayland has... and FWIW Windows 95 is in many fronts superior to any desktop you can find on Linux)

Personally, for a long time Google Keep worked for me (although it has gotten a bit cluttered)

I tried Notion and OneNote but their mobile apps were just too annoying and clunky (reaching 200+ MBs) for the value they provided for my barely 2-3mb of notes

Currently I'm back to Google Keep with occasionally using Trello and Google Tasks

The south of France is dry and the area where these records are broken is semi arid in summer.

Which is good because it would be lethal otherwise.
Reminds me much of the philosopher Fredric Jameson's notion that modern culture basically exemplifies the end of temporality. There is much less forgetting, including forgetting of inconsequential minutiae, nowadays.
Ah yes, but you'd still buy the Macbook Pro, because all other things being equal the Macbook Pro with the touchbar still suits your purpose better than the alternative available product.

The market bears out because you vote with your money. It may not be quite what you want, but you'd rather make the trade off and pay Apple what they want you to pay than go without or have the alternative product. Thus you pay for what you want. Your money tells Apple that even though you may not like their product completely, they're still doing a good enough job for you to pay what they demand you to pay for it. That's all companies really care about.

It's like an abusive relationship with a narcissist, they give you juuuuuust enough to keep you there, but never enough to feel truly happy about life.
The tool I used for a time was fairly explicitly aimed at researchers as I recall. Though TBF that's probably a pretty niche area. (See also Scrivener on the Mac which targets screenwriting and book writers. It's been around for ages so I assume it's making someone a bit of money but, I also assume, very much in the lifestyle business level of revenue.)
Almost all people are employed by companies. If companies don’t advocate for human rights that means that almost noone will except for politicians and the unemployed.

We should expect more civil responsibility from companies since they have a strong influence over the time, speech, health, purchasing-power, and labor of nearly all citizens.
If this is happening in France, then you can expect India to see similar temperature anomalies in the future. Not much to laugh at really.
Cavallarin explains it in a bit more detail on his blog[1]:

The first legit feature is automount (aka autofs) that allows a user to automatically mount a network share just by accessing a "special" path, in this case, any path beginning with "/net/". [..]

Assumably commenting out the line quoted by gp disables automount for network shares which start with "/net" in their path.

As the sister comment said, it's still very uncommon to have ACs at home, at least in the germanic countries (Austria in my case).
