Hong Kong’s Last Stand: A Timeline of the Anti-Extradition Movement
Right or wrong, people aren't worried about design flaws that are known about, it's the design flaws that aren't anticipated. There's plenty of safely operated nuclear energy facilities, but the prospect of one contaminating either a large urban area or a large agricultural area is pretty horrific. I suspect most people aren't worried that the theory and design of new plants is safe, but that the practice wouldn't result in at least one plant with corners cut.

I'm personally comfortable with the idea of nuclear power, but I don't really begrudge people who aren't too much. It's all moot anyway; for providing base load, natural gas is going to be the hands down winner for awhile. I could be mistaken on this point, but I'm under the impression that they're both cheaper and faster to get going, and easier to decommission.
879% drug price hike is one of 3,400 in 2019 so far; rate of hikes increasing
It is cheaper by all measures. Which is what you're not understanding.

Even if there is a a few years until actually being fully operational. It is still a better use of capital, providing the situation you described (no regulations for everyone). Which, to me, would remove the substitutes to solar.

A nuclear power plant has lower upkeep than the 20-30 year lifespan of wind and solar. This is a large cost you aren't including.

Small nuclear is uneconomical the last time I ran the numbers but mid to large scale is.

1 GW Nuclear power plant uses less land, less resources in materials and labor, and is more durable considering the maintenance/upkeep. If you compared that to solar or wind, using the most economical price point, it wouldn't even come close.

But Nuclear has major problems, since your situation isn't realized, an investor could lose 100% of their investment just to be used as a political scapegoat. You don't see that often with Wind and Solar.

So, given the current environment, yes, Wind/Solar are more economical but give no regulations and no substities, Nuclear would be the most economical.

Would you classify the US treatment of Japanese citizens during WW2 as inhumane?

Back then, they were called war relocation centers. Right now, we call them concentration camps. Same thing will happen with the current camps, both in the US and China. In both cases, it's only the citizens of those countries that object to the usage of the term "concentration camps", while everyone else classifies them properly. Nobody in the history has called their own camps for what they truly are. Keeping people in inhumane conditions because the government identified their nationality as suspects is a terrible thing to do regardless of how that same government tries to spin it.
A lot of the anti-bias discourse is aimed at getting people to stop being human and start being libertarian robots.
I see Honda too has fallen prey to the EV alien styling curse. It really seems that conventional car makers are more susceptible, or is this some sort of intentional thing to limit demand to keep production capacity from being swamped?

> If I can make 6% on $400k vs the 4% I'm paying on said mortgage, why wouldn't I pocket that extra 2%?

That's a huge assumption. There is implicit risk in debt: you might not be able to make payments due to you losing income in the future. If your income is gone, your investments might not be worth as much either, so those might not cover your debts.

There's also peace of mind. There's a psychological effect of having and paying debt.

It's great to see it looking so close to the concept car that was seen not that long ago - it's a great mixture of retro and future Honda, and it's also great to see Honda going for a full electric drivetrain as well as such a great design.

Fully Charged got 19 minutes in one, and the video [1] is worth a watch - you can see how quickly it accelerates when he floors it, and he was really impressed with the car, the turning circle and the camera mirrors.

I think the bottom line is that most electric cars will be a blast to drive - I'd love to have one as a rally car on single venue airfield-type events in the UK, if I was still competing; it'd be incredible in the forests too, but not sure range would make it possible for anything substantial, alas. [Totally ignoring any other practicalities that are impinging on my daydream about electric rally cars]

Hope the price is in line with that short range, 124 miles and that is probably the more generous testing methods.

Is there a market for low hundred mile (two hundred KM or less) vehicles? Perhaps if the price is seriously low as well. Wasn't long ago this range would have been amazing but Telsa basically forced the industry as a whole towards providing true usable range. I am of the opinion that three hundred miles plus is where premium brands must land and mid two hundred is fine for standard cars, for now. The sub 200 club is just not trying or needs to be priced so well to create a market; commuter style.
The amount of pixel-tracking apologists make red herring arguments in these comments is proof that tech, and probably specifically SV tech, is not ready to embrace privacy.
Retail consumer prices don't float in most markets. Some markets have time-of-use pricing for some part of the year, but even those have a fixed peak/off-peak rate that is fixed well in advance.

So these testers should have been test pilots? - because the interaction of MCAS and the difficulty in manual trimming was not going to be found until someone tried it in the air (there is considerable doubt as to whether simulators accurately model it.)

And if this was the tester's job, what was the job of the engineers at Boeing who decided on using MCAS to solve a problem, and those at the FAA who endorsed it?

Like many developers I have a strong desire to work with more exciting technology, even when there's no business case for it. Strangely enough, I've found the best outlet for that energy (other than personal projects when I get free time) is configuring Emacs.

It's less disruptive than putting a new language or database into production, and makes me significantly more content to work with a boring stack. Plus I get a more comfortable computing environment out of it.

Maybe someday I'll get Emacs just the way I like it, and need to find something else to distract me from chasing the new and shiny, but I kind of doubt it.
Fair, but just like I've never needed my photo backups, when I do need them (if I ever do), I'll be very, very, very glad I put in the ~3 hours of work or so a month it takes to ensure my photos are all backed up.

Looks like there are ways to block sideloading of apps:

Basically you create an enterprise profile for your phone and block sideloading of apps as a policy ("Disallow_Install_Unknown_Sources). Same with iOS.
According to modern physics, the total energy of our universe is in fact zero, with matter and radiation contributing to "positive" energy, and gravity and other quantum effects contributing to "negative" energy. This is actually the reason we're able to say that our universe could have arisen from nothing, since only a universe with zero total energy can do that.

Therefore, by Occam's razor, we don't need another "mirror" universe to balance out this one.
> good luck finding a Clojure programmer

Why nobody ever says: "good luck finding good Javascript developers"? Or good Java programmers.

Why it became a default norm: every programmer is a Javascript expert now?

In my experience: hiring Javascript developers is hard - most applicants don't even know the difference between null and undefined or can't explain how prototype chain works. And even when you find someone with good experience, there's always on-boarding period: "we're using OntagularJS 1.5, oh you heard about it, but never used it? It is similar to BrokenboneJS, but with slight differences.". And then they have to learn your conventions, debate over enabled/disabled rules in your linter, etc.

Whereas if you specifically try to hire programmers who previously tried and experimented with Clojure (even if you're not using it) - chances to get better candidates increases dramatically.

If I had to choose between hiring five JS/TS/PHP/Java/C#/Go/etc. developers with $100K/Y salary per each or hiring only three Clojure developers for $200K/Y - I would go with the latter. ROI in that case would be much, much higher. Yes, code is a liability - one messy, inexperienced coder can do so much damage that it may take months to fix it.
I'm not gonna lie: I think tailoring a bid to not pick Oracle is probably a legitimate and ethical business decision.

Louisville has an underground bike park and electric fat bike tours: https://louisvillemegacavern.com/attractions/electric-bike-t...
I think it depends where you are - if you're in a city, you probably do very low mileage. Yes, of course, there are plenty of people who do 100+ mile commutes or are traveling salespeople, but most of the people I know could have a car with a sub-100 mile range and that would never (or perhaps once a year on an airport run) be a problem.

I think we all need to think differently about transportation, and that it's just 'tough' if you have to take a 1-hour break in a long (200 mile+) journey. We've been spoiled by our ability to pollute our way around, and we need to recalibrate that in the same way it's not socially acceptable to litter, drink drive or the many other common behaviours that we now no longer do.
Show HN: UNK
The Walkman was sold until recently (if it isn’t still) and of course living in a big city you see a handful of people using a Walkman. It never died completely. There is of course the hipster resurgence of cassettes of the 2010s. Of all this I’m aware. But techie or hipster or not I was around in 2001 and the Walkman was well past mass adoption by that point in the western world. Shitty MP3 players that people loaded up with Napster and Discmans/Aiwas knockoff were what the poors and regulars did. MD and nicer hard drive players were the enthusiast options.
The iPod did not have the Walkman to contend with in a meaningful sense.

Also in the US at least, the majority of households had a PC by 2001. I came from a shit poor backwater by this sites standards. We had computers.

And by 2001, FTP sites? That was post peak of Napster (after Feb 2001). Kazaa, Emule, etc were all regulars options. You’re a few years off, which was substantial in the 95-2001 timeframe.

> Every ebook DRM format(except maybe Apple) is already trivially removable

AFAIK, Amazon's latest DRM on KFX files hasn't been broken yet. That came out in 2015. Some people get around it by getting the book in the older format, but then you lose all the advanced typography stuff that KFX supports.
Two better ways: remove the need for a test or license at all, at least at many more frequencies and below energy levels well above current limits (which say you can transmit around 2.4 Ghz for example up to some power license-free). Second is to remove any restrictions on what is transmitted, which lets you have purely digital frequency modulated end-to-end encrypted signals meant for amateur computers to decipher.

But making the test online sounds a lot more feasible a change. I'm just skeptical of its effects. e.g. It wouldn't have made me any likelier to pursue amateur radar fun further.

I love Venice and I love taking photos of things. It isn't about the thing. It's about capturing the feeling.

I can still remember the wind whipping through my hair before the storm, and the feeling of pleasant dryness when I got home. And all I need for that is a half-assed non-horizontal-horizon photo.
