That's bad math. If you add EVs to a grid that's in the process of decarbonizing, the marginal impact is all that extra power comes from whatever would be shut down next.

EVs are still worth it if they're powered by coal or natural gas. But quoting them as getting cleaner as the grid decarbonizes is wrong, until the existing load is satisfied with renewables (even instantaneously).

The only exception is if EVs allow you to increase the renewable share beyond what you'd otherwise be able to do eg with demand dispatch.
At least these days. I sadly don’t think much of this advice is usable in terms of finding someone to take you in, give you feed and room and board and money.

Most farmers where I grew up—even smaller farms hired temporary workers and gave them bunkhouses. At the end of the season they went off and brought the money back to their families—money not worth much here but worth a lot back home.

The advice about seeing value in redefining objects for their other potentials is great though. One I grew up with. Maybe something quite valuable to the high (read: even higher) consuming culture of the present.

Interesting read.

I think the difference between the standard uber choice and the black option is a bit more nuanced than:

> It's just a random guy with a more expensive car.

The big one is they are required to be commercially registered and commercially insured. At least here in Chicago it's usually the private chauffeur's with a livery license plate in sedan/limo. I'm guessing they do Uber black on the side.

Anyway, yes they are "just random guys" just like any other Uber driver but they've had to jump through extra hoops which affects who does it. I'm not saying that causes a better selection but there is specific difference between the two, other than just requiring a better car.
Having someone who will (or can) justify their nos can be quite useful. Having a cadre of people who simply emit a nonending stream of nos for, erm, no reason, and who cannot be reasoned with (see the parallel response by freehunter about the "no" board for a counterexample), is directly harmful.

There's also a time and place for experimentation, and a time when it's got to be made clear that there's only so much time (or other budget) for research, and that that's going to be tracked and burned down (though the discretion may be put on the R&D team itself to decide how to allocate that).

Much of Rachel's essay is more about management-by-mythology than about the saying-of-nos, specifically.

You can be opposed, but that doesn't make your position correct. In fact, based on your steadfast commitment to your position despite the glaring evidence I've put directly in front of you, that... kind of makes you stubbornly closed minded.

The fact that you're not even talking about the things I mentioned in my earlier comments should be a red flag for you; why won't you talk about the facts related to immigration into the US? I wonder, maybe it's because the facts won't support your position?

That's not really relevant. They can virtue signal how non-racist they are (as long as it doesn't cost them anything real -- donations help buy favors) and still only live in 99% white areas, with closed gates, and local pops/private police ready to harass black/latino people for your protection.

People change over time. Sometimes they get worse, sometimes better. HN often un-bans people that have improved. Sometimes people go on comment rampages over a specific issue, or during a stressful time in their lives, but make valuable contributions on other issues. So there are multiple mechanisms to un-ban people or vouch for particular comments.

I think the world is much better when it gives people chances to improve.
The commenter I responded to literally said that the genius intentionally told the customer the wrong thing. They have since edited that part out. So yes, folks right here are claiming intent where there is none.

Right, and the next logical follow-up question is did we just define 'providing' wrong.

Right now, that definition is commercial GDP value, but even that metric's inventor warned us that it's a bullshit metric [1].

Old people living by themselves sometimes spam call doctors, not for their heart bypass commercial value, but to feel materially better after talking to another human, which has no commercial value.

When I was trying to figure out what to do after high school, I was full of energy and curiosity for this world and wanted to do everything from being a historian, to a musician, to astrophysics, which, let's face it, has no commercial value. Now I'm coding. Luckily I like coding, but not everyone's lucky to have their interests align with commercial value.

Maybe it's not so bad for humans to be humans again.

Swapping loans is fairly trivial, and would leave one with a mortgage rate competitive with American ones.
The abortion laws are old and antiquated (from the 60s), basically a woman needs a doctors permission to get an abortion, in reality this isn't a problem with most doctors but it is demeaning.

There's a new law which just passed the first reading in parliament (with 80% voting yes) to remove any restrictions so thankfully this will no longer be an issue and a woman will be able to make the decision without having to go to a doctor.

So, while the laws are old it's actually positive that there's so much cross party support for progressive reform. Another law which is in it's second reading is euthanasia reform which has similar support.
I'm suggesting that ride sharing doesn't have to be a tech company. I just want to get across town, there's no requirement that the company that does this has to fund flying car research or have fancy offices around the globe.
No, it’s hackers. The same folks who have been releasing jailbreaks. Professors haven’t been finding ios 0days.

I’d say that the researchers have a pretty strong incentive not to screw around with Apple.

It doesn’t matter anyway, because Apple patches the bug, thus killing its black market value completely.

The thing is this beautiful new freedom from labour is also freeing us from subsistence. I see it all over London where I am - there’s now a permanent underclass with no chance of getting up in the social ladder because they are doing jobs such as cleaning, maintenance, baristas... stuff that requires no specialised skills but most importantly will never allow you to pay for your children’s way into higher education. Thus I fear we are permanently removing 30-40% and increasing numbers from the social ladder.

I forget who, but someone made a comment about this a long time ago that stuck with me. We often say, "They'll just sell all these 0 days on the black market." but honestly that's not like a literal market, and you have to make a lot of compromises to not only your own integrity, but also to your safety and ability to stay out of jail if you do something like that.

I wish I remembered the specifics of the comment, but selling a 0day on the black market is not something a casual person can easily do, and even if someone figures out how, there's a lot that can go wrong, with many of those outcomes leading to jailtime.

It's vastly superior to participate in a bug bounty program legitimately, from a risk standpoint, especially if you're standing to make $1M. 0days are (and I'm not an expert on this) not generally going for enough more to justify all that extra risk.
Oh, sure, it's not unique, but it's not a sign of a particularly healthy market.

For our current apartment in another EU capital my partner and I were asked informally what we did for a living. I mentioned my income, but I think it was without being asked explicitly. I was prepared to show my work contract as proof, but they never asked. Those were all the required "formalities" before we were given the contract to sign.

Rents around here are rising at a rate of something like 7% per year, so it's not like there's too much housing, but it's not quite as constrained as elsewhere.

If I'm reading the PEP correctly, it's possible to send memoryview buffers through channels without copying the underlying data.

Good lawyers figure out how to say yes while minimizing legal risks.
No. A rejection on any claim can be made final after it’s gone through two “rounds,” i.e., the attorney has argued it twice (more or less). Most non-final rejections also address all the claims. There isn’t really a difference in degree or “finality” between a “non-final” and “final” rejection, despite the name! Just pay a fee for a continuation and you can argue your final rejection again.
The point is apple is likely to only aim for researchers for this program as the hackers could just resell most 0days, letting apple know about a small fraction to maintain reputation. It would make sense for apple to not allow hackers access to the program for this reason.
They're claiming the factory wasn't authorized to manufacture the batteries, but that's only because they had an Apple logo on them, so he had them get rid of the logo, which is the only thing that requires them to be "authorized" for. How is that even controversial? It seems to be the opposite of counterfeiting -- making it so the non-Apple battery doesn't have the Apple logo.
The rest of Europe has always looked at the BBC as a model (if not THE model) of public-service broadcasting. I honestly don't understand why it's so controversial inside Britain - or rather I do, and it's not a pretty sight (the criticism comes from people with other interests in manipulating public discourse through the media, like a certain infamous Australian and his tabloid pals).

The real cancer of UK society is the tabloid press, now mutating into socialmedia-powered viral linkfarms. The BBC is absolutely fine.

Isn't the idea of a bug bounty at this scale that the monetary reward (especially combined with the lowered legal risk, but also when considered in isolation) is higher from reporting it to the vendor than from selling it on the black market? I.E. presumably Apple has done their research and one million dollars is more than they believe you'd getting selling a zero day to somebody else.

I don't work in the security field nor am I a business number cruncher, but that was the gist I had of what these programs achieved.

Edit: see Despegar's reply, I should have RTFA! However worth pointing out that there would be some incentive for researchers to go to Apple instead of a third party, which might tip the scales in their favour.

Qualified immunity is a creature of federal Constitutional law; it exists to immunize law enforcement from civil suits alleging that they violated someone's Constitutional rights. The doctrine does not immunize officers against criminal charges, particularly crimes against the laws of the States.

"Privacy" isn't (yet) a Federal civil or constitutional right so I'm not sure that qualified immunity would apply. The intent qualifier in the Peeping Tom law is probably sufficient since the intent is not to violate someone's privacy but to follow up on some sort of reasonable suspicion of criminal activity.

Also if people can see through your window doing ordinary (non-traditionally-"private") activities, there's the "plain view" doctrine -- although that's related to admission of evidence and not a prima facie criminal law violation. Nevertheless a Court is probably going to use similar reasoning when divining intent.
I don't see how there's any risk when it gets sold to a broker like Zerodium who then sells it to some government.

i agree with you in spirit. but as it stands, whether due to genetics, upbringing, education, social class and/or opportunity, the vast majority of humans are not capable of creatively working on those complex problems and never will be no matter how much retraining they are provided.

This seems far less about "just say no" than it is about not understanding, or insisting on, long-obsoleted policies.

I've encountered something of a converse of this situation: a set of prod servers running a Java workload on which performance was frequently abysmal, which turned out to be due to a very poorly tuned set of JVM GC parameters. The feature(s) were poorly documented (lots of detail, little useful guidance), so it took some tuning and ongoing performance monitoring to see that 1) the problem had been solved and 2) that no new problems were introduced.

The latter being of particular concern as this was a long-lived project that had gone through generations of development and ops support (I was latter), few of whom were on current speaking terms with the shop in question.

The management feedback I got on my monitoring was (a rudimentary bit of instrumentation, and periodic checking) was that this seemed to reflect an excess of concern and/or attachment to the issue and/or solution.

Given the numerous other years-outstanding issues which I'd identified and (eventually) largely remedied, I found this response tremendously perplexing.
No. A decrease in Google's share price doesn't increase Facebook's share price. These companies are mostly in the same boat of being large tech companies with significant amounts of power. It's in all of the employees' best interest to suppress stories critical of anything that could be generally applicable to that power structure.

Edit: As the posters below said, those aren't kernel bugs. Thanks for the correction!
I don’t think they will, I know they will.

But maybe it depends on how you define “hacker” and what you call “random”. I’m saying that folks in the jailbreaking scene are some of the primary targets for this. It wouldn’t be worth launching if the plan was to exclude them. Some are already part of Apple’s bounty program.

The stability cuts to your pragmatic argument. Specifically, I keep getting student hires on my team that think the Java or the Python they used for school will cut it in the office. In large, it won't. JavaScript, similarly, has more online resources, but similarly, most are not helpful for modern use.

Depending when you made this argument, stack overflow was a great resource. But many answers for the languages you pick as pragmatic are not good answers for modern use. And it seems to be getting worse.

For the other, you are taking my evidence the other way, oddly. I would expect language to matter very little. Such that, pragmatically, it makes no difference.

That is, I'm not trying to prove people do better because of racket. I'm guessing to prove they do no different because of python. Indeed, I enjoy lisp. But I doubt it is truly easier than most other options. Just so I doubt it is truly harder than most other options.
GitLab is right.

I ran a company that was in the GitHub marketplace and was a partner. At the GH partner day a few years ago they shared their view the world: their thinking was that it was preferable for devs to be able to use “best in class” tooling for CI, project management, etc, with gitHub’s version control at the center.

GitHub contrasted this with the “one stop shop” approach where you get all your Dev needs met with (presumably) inferior tools from a single vendor.

Because, the thinking went, how could one vendor do everything better than many vendors? Especially if you have sets of vendors focused on one tool in the Dev toolchain?

Between Projects, Actions, and CI/CD, it seems GItHub has indeed come around to the one stop shop view of the developer toolchain.

I guess each of those only has to be good enough and not best in class. And there are efficiencies to be gained for customers from an integrated approach.
Perhaps the present day answer to "How to Get into Farming with No Money" is "bring a little money, and before you can even get started, you have no money after complying with US policies".
