Are you sure that's not just the air pressure difference? Cymbals often have a shape with many concentric ripples, so you might need multiple holes to equalize the air pressure between each ripple. Wringing only works with extremely flat surfaces, and it works even in vacuum.
> It takes an engineer to build a bridge that just barely doesn't collapse

Cute saying, but an aircraft doesn't really share this property. You can make a bridge or building stronger by just adding more stuff. Many pyramids and stone bridges have held up admirably even after thousands of years.

You can't make a better aircraft by just adding more stuff. Very soon, it becomes incapable of its primary purpose.

Lisp always sounds cool to me until someone starts talking about macros. What's it like inheriting a lisp code base, finding out its full of homemade macros like list comprehensions, and that they're not documented? Inheriting a code base is always scary, but I feel like it kicks it up a notch when your predecessors can customize the language itself. Are my fears justified?

I think too much focus on the trees. To get to a trillion we need 125 trees per person on the planet. Removing those who are not in an area where tree planting is possible and cannot viably get to one, those who don't care, and those who simply cannot (children, disabled, etc) we are probably looking at tens of thousands of trees per person. I think at that point a tiered leaderboard would be more effective. Naming and photographing 10,000 trees is going to get old fast but getting to Forest Ninja level before your friends has some appeal to it.

Also there needs to be some system of logging (lol) which areas are ok to plant (avoid messing with earth's albedo, fire prone areas, for example) and among those which have not yet been planted. This will require and a way for users to check off what they've already covered and a collaboration with some organization who can say which areas are ok to plant and what types of trees will grow well there)

Furthermore there's needs to be an instructional aspect as to how to properly plant trees (seeds are a bad idea because they require regular follow up until they have sprouted). Saplings are a better bet which will require a list of places to get sapplings.

Ideally saplings will be free for users which will require coordination with governing bodies in every country that participates in order to subsidize the cost either at an individual level or directly to the suppliers. Either that or some kind of ad-incentive program for suppliers who are willing to donate.

It would be ideal if the suppliers rented tools as well and provided top soil and Schultz (growth mix).

This stuff has to come from somewhere. Either private equity or big brother. Should ask MacKenzie Bezos. She'd be down. Bono would be all over it. Bill and Melinda too. Maybe a live8 style benefit concert or something. Orr.. here we go, let people who can't go out and plant pay for the supplies for other people to do so. So you can have points for paying for trees. Points for planting them and triple bonus for doing both yourself because that's just awesome.

Or a mix of all the above. Pool the funds and then allocate them to suppliers when users indicate that they want to go to that location and get started. Really well suited for management by an app.

The app should also facilitate group efforts like matching groups of people in the same area with a nearby planting zone so they can rent a bus for a saturday and make a trip to somewhere a little less local.

I'm trying to think of ways to make this as frictionless as possible. Like i have an afternoon to kill and maybe some friends who would be down so I open the app. I need a map with available planting areas nearby and also sources for saplings. Do I have a car? A car with lots of space? Just a bike? Can I afford to fund this myself right now? Based on this are there any opportunities nearby? Maybe a notification based on those criteria if my location changes? Like maybe I'm on vacation and I need something to do or I'm driving somewhere and could stop for half an hour if the stars align.
My Wall Street example isn't misleading. It's very well known and defined and was actually a big component to the write up about the looming Boeing bailout that hit the FP yesterday [0].

Balancing those two is extremely important for fiscal gain and continuuing to stay relevant in the face of Innovators Dilemma.

The issue with IE was that Microsoft was using its monopoly in the operating system market to unfairly drive out competition in the browser market.[1] Apple, on the other hand, has only 45% of the smartphone market in the U.S. today,[2] so nobody has a monopoly in that market.

I don't have much sympathy. What I read is an ISP saying "gee, all those IPv4 addresses we use internally are costing us a mint, whatever shall I do?".

I see lots of comments here about the merits of IPv4 v IPv6 v CG-NAT. That's all irrelevant. Aussie Broadband, like all Australian ISP's, provide their customers with a router configured to do NAT. If like me you don't want that your on your own you are better off purchasing your own gear. They won't support you, but at least you will be familiar with it. For some ISP's like Optus you have no choice - they've crippled the firmware in their routers so you can't change it.

Given the router is doing NAT they can use any carrier. And indeed, some Australian NBN ISP's use IPv4/DHCP, some use PPPoE and others were at one point doing QinQ and of course for pre-NBN ADSL connections it was ATM. Whatever, if your router is doing NAT it doesn't doesn't effect the customer one way or the other. IPv6 is a perfectly reasonable choice for a carrier in those circumstances, and for bonus points it means you can give your customer routeable IP addresses. (It would simplify my home setup considerably.) And it doesn't use a single paid for IPv4 for internal routing!

As for the hand wringing about the price - we've known this was coming for decades. We've figured out the solution and it's been available for purchase for years. They've almost certainly replaced their gear at least once in those years. They definitely replaced the routers they've handed out to customers because of the NBN rollout. If they didn't replace it with something IPv6 capable that's piss poor planning - particularly so because unlike most countries the NBN roll out gave Australian ISP's the perfect opportunity to do it.
The article is a little confusing. Some questions anyway:

I measured it once, kept reading about how OEM wiring was under spec'ed and led to voltage drop at the headlight, so I measured the voltage + current, and got a bit over the 55W rating for the regular headlight.

After the first measurement I thought I proved that the wiring was seriously undervolting the headlights when I only measured around 10V (and just under 40W), then I realized that was the DRL's.

To find the 3W spec for the LED DRLs on my current car, I just looked up the specs on an replacement module - I don't crawl around the hood with a multimeter anymore, too much expensive stuff in the way.

(the reason I measured in the first place was because I wanted brighter headlights since I was doing a lot of night driving in mountain roads, and thought that replacing the wiring harness would be an easy upgrade. I ended up adding a set of driving lights which looked kind of dorky, but worked great)

I was wondering about (what I presume to be) this effect the other day with regard to things sticking to my bench top that I hadn't moved in a few weeks. One was a glass jar and the other a plastic lid. The bench is oiled hardwood. I was thinking that it seemed related to the two coefficients of friction (static vs moving). That is, the static part of friction could well be this phenomena on a less sticky scale. My thoughts led me to how it could be an electron transfer going on that bonded the two materials on some way...

(This was all backyard conjecture of course)

So, many thanks for this post: it shows how much better thought has gone into the problem.

If you are all for privacy then please ask for only the street name not the full address.

This means no online discoverability : you have to talk to your neighbours to get a link, but thats a good thing.

It also means the geographic boundary is flexible. In the city it might be a floor of an apartment block. In the suburbs a street, or maybe 2 adjoining streets, and in rural areas a region several km around a village.

Then it can get other non-street but local usages: parents of a school class, local yoga members etc.

Also less coding: just store a string!

I like the idea, the big barrier for me as a user is being embarrassed to contact all the neighbours that I don’t know well. Or fear that no one would join. Maybe some advise about how to tackle that would be good. Or some feel good story of a benefit you got from using it.
That's really depends on what you want from a car, doesn't it? For me, all personal and IMHO, of course, multi-month repairs over trivial issues, having to plan your trips around charger stations, and, yes, lack of luxuries that are by today not out of place even in in midrange cars costing less than half the price of a model S... that's not minor issues.

And of course I am too old and cynical, and want my stick shift back, but the driving experience in Model S was very much blah. That's one of those things that you can do well only if you know how to build cars, not computers on wheels.

As for ownership experience, maybe it is that bad with BMW, although I doubt it, but I've never had any problems with Audi, and it has been far more pleasant than what I've heard of Tesla...
I would assume that it's not a QA issue, but rather it's designed to perform well enough that 95% of customers don't complain. If 95% of customers don't get it wet or don't get particularly angry when they do, then designing it to be more waterproof would under-optimize the company's resources.

A lot of the things we take for granted about the benefits of living in a capitalist society are side effects of capitalists traditionally not being very good at their jobs and giving customers stuff/benefits unintentionally. That seems to be going away thanks to IT and increased testing of assumptions.
+1 on gamifying it, newly planted tree could be used as a in-app bonus/item/assets

talking about social networks - such things can easily be adopted by companies like Facebook, if they simply put a planted tree counter next to everyone's profile, (allowing those how can't plant to donate for others to plant) it can lead to competitions among friends/family/groups to be #1 planters and do lots of good.
>Wrong, you should do the opposite, because they want to control how you think, and you have a duty to keep your thought independent.

But... "doing the opposite" as some kind of "duty" because you believe marginalized groups want to control your thoughts is the antithesis of having "independent" thought.

Same with crisps/potato chips. You'll get 'Lays' or 'Frito Lays' or whatever everywhere, but in the UK it's 'Walkers'.

Whole bags of microscopically thin slices of deep fried potato, loaded with salt or sugar in some form or another.

Of course, you get the fake antique alternatives to attract the millennial crowd too. e.g. Old Mout Cider claims to be 70 years old but is just a hipster offshoot of Bulmer's, with a carefully crafted narrative and bizarrely appealing design for a hitherto unknown drink, customer support hotlines and all.

I suppose that's a fair point.

I just hate how Apple are holding browsers back in terms of PWA support. If they allowed Chrome or Firefox to have their own engines, we could at least have push notifs on iOS with PWAs.

> This is the central myth of the free market.

Tell Sears and Kmart that it's a myth.

Top US retailers in 1970: Sears, Pennys, Kmart, Woolworth, McCrory's, WT Grant, Genesco, Allied, May, Dayton-Hudson (Target)

Only one of those remains on the list now (in an entirely different form at that).

The Internet has changed nothing fundamental about whether a retailer can be replaced by competition. And no, Amazon's warehouses don't make it impossible to compete with any more than Sears previously having thousands of physical stores supposedly protected them via reach / scale that others couldn't match. For retailers, the Internet is a better catalog. Sears rode the last version to temporary dominance, Amazon rode this version to temporary online dominance.
My theory is since the screen is held to the watch with glue [0], heat exposure will cause the glue to unset slightly and break the waterproof seal. So over time your watch may lose it's seal from exposure to being in a hot day.

The malfunction happened to me after owning the watch for 14 months, and I swam with it in the ocean on month 4 with no problems. It was also fine on the first day, the issue started happening the day after. My theory is a very small amount of water got in, but it was enough to damage the oled screen inside.

The solution would be not using glue, but using screws or a bayonet on the back, but then it won't look like a seamless object. Maybe in the new non-jony era of apple they will make their watches properly waterproof? I doubt it although.

"I’m a fan of forcing corporations to issue shares to the victims."

Typically, the victims of corporate malfeasance are considered to be the (existing) shareholders, in the American system. Like, there's a lawsuit on behalf of the shareholders when pretty much anything goes wrong that affects the stock price. There's quite a contrast to the common opinion on HN and elsewhere, where the shareholders are identified with the corporate malefactors.

The Commonwealth is an association of countries, some of which happen to have the same individual as head of state (not all). However for instance Canada has a Queen of Canada who happens to have lots of othe "jobs" too. I think comparing that link to the Greenland situation is not viable.

The union position would be in support of local labor, who make and cost more as opposed to the outsourced labor. In practice, I've seen mixed sides to all of this. Boeing itself is a very large, very litigious organization, and there's a lot of issues at play. Boeing is also a major military supplier as well.

In the end, it's probably at least partially true and very biased at the same time. I think the biggest arguments about unions are if they provide value, and if you are required to be part of a union in order to work in a given position/company. There've also been weird reverse-unions where the union is actually on the employer network's side. I've seen this happen locally with regards to nursing workers, the collective is member operated under the various hospitals and providers for fixed, down-ward driven rates.

But my point is that anyone's electric marketshare in 2019 is pretty meaningless as a predictor of 2040 or even 2030 results. And the 2019 rankings very much remind me of a certain (quite bad) scifi novel I've read, where in the furure everyone drives electric cars, except for the really rich who zoom around in extremely expensive ICE vehicles.

Also, governments might want to push for electric vehicles, but it is not obvious that the public will go along with it -- so far the only way to make electric cars outsell traditional ones is a severe distortion of the pricing as in Norway.
