As a homeowner with what seems to be an ever-growing list of projects, I noticed that I would unceremoniously delete them when complete. The projects themselves quickly become part of the background of life, so I realized this deletion was depriving me of the ability to appreciate just how much I do accomplish.

Now I’ve started moving them to a “done” list, with a date and photos. It’s not a panacea, but it feels really good and helps build motivation when I review that list and watch it grow.

Totally agree.

When I read the title my mind ignored the "... of Publishing" because this is just one part of this "hydra".

Amazon seeks to dominate & assimilate as many things as it can like the Borg. It's not too much of a demand by some to break up such companies as it's not good for the people & govt that single private entities have such power.
From the article. Investment dollars in and realized + unrealized gains.
The clients aren’t “fully open”, since their source doesn’t match the binaries that Telegram distributes.
Sometimes just knowing that something is possible enables replication, which I bet is the case here. It’s only rocket science (rather than say jet turbine science that involves a lot of hard to uncover secrets).

I've been doing this at work for the last 4-5 years, and it's been an incredibly valuable exercise. In my case, it's just a simple spreadsheet called "Things Done".

I too have trouble saying "no" when someone asks me to help out, and I decided to keep track of all the things I do that I think add value, but more importantly (along some dimensions), things that the people asking me to help value. I started doing this after I realised that there's lots of stuff that I take for granted, but that other people find incredibly useful because they're simply unfamiliar with the domain or technology in question.

I do have the benefit of some relatively trusted senior leadership though, who help me to summarise and focus this list towards the end of the year so that I don't end up emphasising the wrong things as part of my year-end summary.
Unless you're comparing the price of apples to the price of yogurt, I've never seen that. Items of the same kind are displayed in the same units.
That trick does not work in countries where they come along with the police department responsible for checking if business activities are in accordance with the law.

Here is the Portuguese variant of such police department.

No, he means Western, including the EU for example, which maintains https://euvsdisinfo.eu/ a site collecting Russian disinformation. Right now because Americans spend two years every four years fighting an election they are focused on the US (although with some border stuff continuing to persuade Ukrainians that actually Russia are the good guys as they continue to invade that country...) but if you go back a few months there's plenty to underscore the destabilising message that the EU are actually Nazis and if only everybody would put Russia in charge that'd be so much nicer...

This really doesn't seem like that big of a deal to me.
I think this refers to a quick search through observations from other telescopes observing other EM frequency ranges ... to see if they saw short energy bursts at the same times. That's becoming common for, e.g., LIGO gravity wave observations.
I consider them sort of like wild animals. Perception in different places are different. Some people will talk about a chill on their neck or a breeze. Some talk about a sudden dread/psychosis, paralysis, all the way up to mass hysteria, deeper voices, violence.

I know at least two friends who were the victims of possession. Both were highly educated, from educated families. We called police and paramedics on one. They sent her to mental care and gave her the drugs needed, but the screeching and demonic voice still remained. Both were cured permanently when an exorcist came in.

Both friends said their bodies were out of their control and even surprised when they started talking to the exorcists. One had a very mother who was a highly educated medical doctor. She was the victim of such a thing in the past and paid a lot of money to fly in the exorcist.

A relative was sick for a week. She went to a high end hospital, ended up in intensive care, attended to by specialists. Treatment cost $3,000, and the hospital finally released her because they did everything they could and the insurance wouldn't let her stay much longer. Another relative offered a spiritual treatment and her fever cooled within an hour.

Now you can call all these things coincidental, but the correlation seems very strong, whether exorcism is a first or last resort.

They seem a lot more dangerous in jungles, or areas that were cleared out from a former jungle or swamp. So I'm inclined to think they live like wild animals rather than being the residue of dead people.
1. You can make late companies unable to evade the law.

2. Yeah? But according to this article GDPR actually makes small and medium companies even more dangerous to trust with your information.
This is how Europeans (and maybe not only us) commonly think about Americans, all immigrants from Europe first, from the rest of the world next. However probably it's not how they think about themselves. I'd like to hear from them.
It is legal in many countries, because usually there is a police department that validates business activities are following the law as they should, and they tend to come along with a couple of officers.
I started to get pain in my right hand in my mid-20s (early 40s now) when I was spending a full working day programming and then spending most of my time playing fps games on my PC in the evening using KB+M. It progressed to the point that I would get stabbing pains on the top of my hand whenever I right-clicked my mouse.

After a few weeks of trying different layouts and avoiding my mouse as much as possible, I found the source of my issue was not my hand but a nerve in my elbow which was being crushed when using chair arm rests. I was also sleeping with my arms folded up on my chest which kept the nerve under tension when I was sleeping, preventing it from fully healing. I now avoid arm rests whenever possible and sleep with my arms to the side. The pain disappearred after about a week and I've been pain free ever since. I've also naturally reduced the amount of typing/mousing I do as I've got older and my career has progressed.
https://www.kaiko.com/ seems to the same data but with far longer historical coverage (Tardis starts from April this year). The drawback of Kaiko is the higher price tag.
I believe it's based on what the pack displays, if its grams then they show price per gram, if its ml, likewise.

I suppose its still possible to game with own label goods, from what I've observed it only seems to come up in a limited range of goods, sauces and suchlike.

I havent weighed a litre of oil, but a litre of water is a kg, so water based goods should be fairly comparable ml to g, that's the basis I work on anyway.
Planting trees on it would even help more (if it is a climate zone where that is realistic).

I heard an Interview with the founder of the ecosia search machine yesterday, and they are looking for tree planting initiatives constantly..
Having just rewatched the matrix, I am totally down for this. Where's my red pill?
But the whole point of AMP is to make prefetching possible in a safe and privacy-preserving way. The AMP caches are where the big wins come from, and what clearly guided the rest of the design.

If option one makes prefetching possible and option two doesn't, why would a comparison with prefetching be unfair?

(Signed exchanges could in theory change this and allow safe cached serving and prefetching of arbitrary HTML pages, but the crowd that hates AMP seems to despise signed exchanges even more. Such is life.)

Incidentally, there was just a large scale study made on the performance characteristics of AMP in the real world.

https://blog.apnic.net/2019/08/08/amp-up-your-mobile-web-exp...

TL;DR is that the AMP pages from the origin were loading on average in 3.1 seconds compared to 7.7 seconds for the matching HTML. (Not all sites are as diligent as you about keeping their HTML light). And then pre-rendering sped that 3.1 seconds to 1.2 seconds. Though the bandwidth used for the prefetching was more than I would have expected.
That's not "American". The house number comes first in the US, e.g.

> 10 Main Street Apt# 150

Which frankly just looks weird. At least the Scandinavian standard has them in a sensible order.

In Denmark it could be:

> Bredgade 10, 3. th

On Wide Street 10, 3rd floor, on the right (th being short for 'til højre'; others being mf (midt for; middle) and tv (til venstre; on the left) -- if more than three on the same floor, just a hyphen followed by a number).

Plus our post numbers come before the city name, which is also more useful.
They don't have to. They just have to do it longer than the competition.

Remember, Facebook and YouTube made big losses for a while, especially after the 'exit'. YouTube outlived Vine and started putting in more intrusive ads. Facebook IPO seemed like a flop, but it went very well and they acquired all their competitors instead of outwaiting them.
And you just trust Facebook to somehow really encrypt everything in this black-box? I think this is naive as Facebook has always lied to us and proved it isn't a trustworthy entity.

WA used to steal your contacts by default to improve Facebook's data set and probably still does.

The Telegram guy however left his country because he didn't want to cooperate with such entities (like the Kremlin which for me is kind of another organization that seeks to harm your privacy among other goals and is therefor comparable to FB and other spy-companies).
I have always been surprised that anyone is surprised that an insecticide is responsible for the widespread deaths of insects.

I assume there is some reason (not immediately obvious to an outsider like me) why it should be surprising, but all these stories feel like “REVEALED: wet pavements caused by spraying WATER on them!”
Its almost as though were doing this massive unconscious experiment where we take every natural process, call it an economic externality, then proceed to slap a price on it by building technology that mimics it. What replaces the service bees provide?
Basic research has an incredible ROI over the long run. It's one of the most wisest economic investments a society can make.
In NYC, at least, I've had Uber Eats orders delivered by a person on a scooter. Same as Seamless/GrubHub, Caviar, etc.
Land can be surprisingly cheap depending on where you look. Ag land in Ireland, at least, can be a couple grand an acre if you buy in bulk (and it's not good grazing land, but this can be great for reforesting).
Also children. Despite all the rhetoric europe and usa are the least likely places to be intentionally used as targets.
Maybe "average" was the wrong word, perhaps "unremarkable" is a better one.

Before Trump the US was proud to describe itself as a nation of immigrants (I was one for 20 years) but Americans have this myth that they take in far more immigrants than anywhere else, it's just not true
Not OP but when I have pizza leftovers I also reheat them in a frying pan. It works pretty well :-)

I have similar way of calculating square meters from square feet. "Subtract 10% divide by 10". So for example 900 square feet: 900 - 90 = 810/10 = 81. Real answer is 83.6, close enough for me.
It was Socrates' atheistic critique of contemporary definitions of piety to call this "trade" or "ἐμπορικὴ" in Euthyphro 14e.

And for an historical example, according to Xenophon [Xen. Anab. 3.2.10] the Athenians promised to sacrifice a goat to Artemis for every Persian killed at Marathon. This turned out to be 6,400 [Hdt. 6.117] and since they could not find enough goats, they instituted a yearly sacrifice of 500.

Although only a wag like Socrates would call this a direct trade with the goddess.
Everyone here seems to be missing his point. He is talking about transferring over the thing that is "you" in a continuous fashion, over time, into another host. "continuous" is the key here, as in the "self-aware thing" that is you will not have a disruption in his aware conscious experience. No disruption in history.
I’ve experienced something similar with ebay and paypal, 100%.

Suddenly and out of nowhere I couldn’t login to either and had to do “forget my password” for both of them.

This triggered a several month long incident of my old passwords allowing me to log in and my new password working some of the time. I have absolutely no explanation of it but it got the to the point of having the small number of passwords I’ve used for both of them written down next to my computer. I could type in the same password three days in a row and it worked, and then the fourth day it stopped working and the another old one worked.

Deeply frustrating and still no explanation for it.
We once had a flood knock out telco lines all over a state. Firechat was an option but nobody knew about it. What needs to happen is more education regarding these tools.
There is no "last mile delivery network at scale".

Well there is, its called the postal system but there sure as heck isn't any just-in-time last mile network "at scale". You just have fuck tonnes of delivery drivers who need to get paid. There is no magic "at scale" wand to wave over it to make it economically viable.

The excuses for Uber losing money is getting jaw dropping now.
In Canada it's $1k/acre and sometimes even lower. But for your plan to have maximum effect you'd have to do some research what land would be best suited because of biodiversity and climate.
I am amazed how fast this website loads. Great job!

You don't need to be Walmart sized. Pound shops in the UK routinely do this and have nowhere near the clout Walmart do.
At a minimum, you're replacing/have replaced a huge number of publishers of various sizes and booksellers of various sizes (including very boutique and personal operations in both cases) with Amazon. OK, that's an overstatement. You have other major publishers especially in specialty areas like textbooks--but as a general rule...

On the one hand, the barriers to actually publishing something are way down. You don't necessarily need to submit your proposal and sample chapter to 100 different publishers. You can just self-publish on Amazon if you're so inclined and do your own marketing.

But discoverability is now significantly in the hands of Amazon's algorithms. And those algorithms are designed with Amazon's interests at heart--such as driving more Prime subscriptions.

A more efficient and data-driven world isn't necessarily worse than schmoozing with New York or London-based editors over lunch. But it certainly tends to concentrate power.
Smoking in the public places was just few decades ago, very common and it seemed like impossible to move. Now even thinking about going back is absurd idea.

Today people defend 'basically harmless stuff like:

1. Force physical mutilation of children crazy reasons is OK if there is not much physical harm. Circumcision of boys is seen as OK in countries where it's common and normal. Others can see it as crazy cultural thing.

2. Physical punishment of children is OK because I turned out just fine.
Previously discussed: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17428751

I chewed on this idea for several days, eventually coming to the same conclusion others had: it won't work. This poster came up with a correct explanation much faster than I did: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17432975

Zubrin has taken a familiar approximation -- that the field near a flat charged plate is uniform -- and forgotten that it's only an approximation, and that the keyword is "near". As particles leave the vicinity of the drive, they will be attracted back toward it, reversing the momentum transfer.
The dipole drive uses the protons and electrons of the solar wind for propulsion. They are reflected in an electric field and the paper claims that velocities higher than the solar wind speed can be achieved.

But take the proposal with a grain of salt, because the whole mechanism highly depends on the plasma density of the solar wind which is rather small in the interplanetary space. It really works well only close to planets or stars where the plasma density is high.

True enough re: them usually being a response to a problem.

See the 'Background' section on page 11 of https://www.nist.gov/document/sp1181-unit-pricing-guidepdf
and more generally https://www.nist.gov/pml/weights-and-measures/laws-and-regul.... So yes, it was done purely to address consumer demand... by way of laws and regulations with producers and retailers under threat of even more onerous laws and regulations.

A contemporary example to hopefully convey the situation back then: if 'right to repair' becomes law at some point, this would also be due to consumer demand. Notice the level of interest companies have in addressing this consumer demand prior to legislation being passed...
By the same reasoning, Internet Explorer should have killed off Firefox ages ago. Except that never happened and instead it is IE that died. Firefox has plenty of supporters and a rich development community; it won't go away any time soon.

There are enough of them to keep Mozilla going indefinitely and they are doing some truly amazing stuff like using Rust to get massive performance boosts. Mozilla and Firefox have set the agenda technically for close to two decades. Everybody does tabs now. I remember when that was a Mozilla only thing. Extensions were a Mozilla only thing for a long time now. Even Safari has extensions now. The new focus on security and privacy started at Mozilla and is now being copied by others (Brave, Edge, Safari) while Google is moving to kill ad blockers and continues to sell users out to their advertisers.

This is a Brexit lie based on a superficial change of name - the constitutional basis of the European Union is specified in the 1957 treaty of Rome and the later Maastricht treaty (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_of_Rome). The treaty of Rome explicitly states that the goal is the creation of a single market for goods, labour, services, and capital. This was the foundation of the union that the UK voted to join by plebiscite in the 1970s. The UK - a representative democracy - also ratified the subsequent Maastricht Treaty by democratically elected parliament. The idea that the British people were somehow subjected to a “bait and switch” con job is simply a fabrication and demonstrates historical ignorance.
Yeah, you got it. Building numbers—banchi blocks—label the age of the building, not its position in space. The only people for whom many addresses are physically findable seems to be people from the neighborhood who have memorized the arbitrary number of each building. Google maps is a blessed thing generally, but an absolute godsend when visiting Japan.
That’s not true at all.

All clients are fully open source, they believe it to be a core requirement for formal verification.

You could make the argument about the play store distributed binary being “unverified”, but that applies to any program that’s distributed in binary form. You never know what additions are made.

FWIW the f-droid version is compiled entirely from source with no binary blobs at all and is still the same client.

You’re not helping anyone by spreading FUD.
Dark matter doesn't necessarily need to be viewed as this super weird thing. It seems to be simply some unknown substance that exerts gravitational force while not interacting or only very weakly interacting with most other forms of matter / energy.

We have seen somewhat similar things before. Neutrinos interact very weakly with matter. A single neutrino needs to pass through a stack of lead that is an entire _light year_ in length just to have a 50% chance of hitting a single atom (yes, 1 actual light year).

And we have certainly have encountered unknown substances and particles before.

My layman's understanding is that no variation of MOND has managed to get that close to the comprehensive and robust scope of explanation provided by general relativity.

Uber zero hour drivers are footing all the startup investment to provide their end of the service. They paid for the car and are paying for insurance, petrol and upkeep. On top of that Uber is saving on holiday/sick pay, employee contributions...but more importantly they can afford to hire any driver without worrying about firing them, and that could be the deal breaker on zero hours vs full time.
Amazon’s self-publishing product is horrible. Basically there is only 1 type of book that can be made from it (i.e. no color, only 1 type of cover, only 1 type of paper... only 1 font). Im surpried they wouldn’t start with proper options, if they want to conquer the world.
Not all lithium ion can be drained at high rates like that. There is a trade off of safety, lifetime, energy density and power density (discharge rate). For instance the RC helicopter batteries are rated for 100C+, but are notorious for fires and short life time. As it happens, the RC photo drones are easier on the batteries and want longer run times so there are batteries that have higher energy density but can only handle 20C. A lot of e-bike packs are built from 1650 batteries and these are best off when limited to 3C. I'd imagine the priorities of a car battery are similar.

Whoever did it, it's clear to everyone with a pulse at this point that Epstein was murdered.

Does anyone here have any sort of constructive insight into how we can subordinate our international elite to the rule of law? Or was that a fiction to begin with?

And before someone goes, "reeeeeeeee! political!", keep in mind that this underpins everything. What's the point of quibbling over EULAs, patents, equity, markets, GPL vs MIT, etc, etc, if, at the end of the day, an adversary with enough money can just buy their way out of the rules and do whatever?
That’s the point

Going to disagree with you there, you would know this guy is deliberately being manipulative with symbolism if you took understanding from religious art. He's just compressed several parts of the collective unconscious into one video without meaning for whatever dumb reason.

Time is growing more important than space, that'll be building up to 2024. The big slow interstellar style "bwooah"s have stopped and more of the billie eillish fast paced music will build up to 2024.

The first one into a new market gets remembered for it as having defined it. That's all it is. The first ones who got the "pop" sound, or the FPS, etc. right.
Well, I would have assumed that the usage of insecticides decreased in the last decades. At least I never had the impression that it increased massively.
Yes, kaiko provides similar service and there are others in this space as well, but it's normalized data only and only snapshot of 10% of the top of the order book taken every minute - not streaming order book data (initial snapshot + incremental updates). It works for some use cases, but not all, hence my API which I'd hope fills that niche.
