And the need for more/larger panels and support structures will only be a win if overall, the costs decrease.

The cost is what makes the decision for deployment, not the efficiency. Perhaps this efficiency makes 2-axis tracking economical enough to justify, and then it gets deployed, but in the end the efficiency wasn't as important as the improved costs.

What's the source to claim gov will force adoption on behalf of huawei?

Edit:

Fro my perspective as a Chinese living in bay area. So far Huawei largely benefited more than being harmed. For one thing, it firmly established itself as the beacon of Chinese tech superiority over other domestic competitor, and gains unmeasurable good will from the Chinese people. This obvious helps propell their possible dominance of the smartphone market, and helps with their Cloud business as well.

This is also why BAT and other tech companies are largely indifference to Huawei's situation. On the one hand, it's sensitive. On the other hand, they are in situation where might be forced to play cooperatively to Huawei's own benefits.
I solved this issue for myself last night using CSS selectors. My goal was to replicate Github Flavored Markdown styling using Tailwind on Hugo generated html. Here is the repo for the stylesheet for anyone who is interested: https://github.com/iandinwoodie/github-markdown-tailwindcss

The generated content is wrapped in a div with the class "markdown" (defined in the repo above). So it looks like:
<div class="markdown">{{ .Content }}</div>

I wrapped up the stylesheet around 2AM this morning, but I plan on expanding the README and un-nesting the class (it was nested for postcss-nesting).

I am just starting a personal site and it is still very much under construction, but I do have a Markdown example page publicly available that I have been using to test the styles. Here is the link in case anyone wants to take a look at the end result: https://iandinwoodie.github.io/blog/markdown-syntax-guide/
That's not quite what this is.

The 'best price guarantee' guarantees the customer will receive the lowest price for their ticket. Google will refund them if anyone gets a lower price.

The airline can release, for 30 seconds only, a much lower price. Then Google has to refund all their customers, and the airline might only sell a handful of tickets at the lower price.

Remember airline tickets aren't fungible. They have names attached, and can't be resold, so nobody can buy up thousands of tickets in a price dip and resell.
"Beneficial" is probably too gentle a word. Vigilante justice is always bad. In this specific case, it was arguably less bad than the alternative, but that doesn't mean it's a good principle in general.

Ted Chiang: Realist of a Larger Reality
The short answer: It depends. But it's usually five years. The DOJ manual on prosecuting computer crimes[1] is in an interesting document to browse.

The long answer: It depends on the crime & sometimes the victim. There's a pretty good summary of all Federal Crimes (including many that can't be committed with a computer, at least not yet) starting on page 20 of this report.[2] Sometimes the statute of limitations doesn't begin to countdown until the crime is discovered or until the victim turns 18. Serious crimes, like espionage or terrorism, don't typically have any statute of limitations.

Many reasons, and a significant percentage of all AIS transmissions are dodgy. Smuggling is just one reason.

Other common reasons include illegal fishing in protected waters, covert meetings (e.g. a couple yachts coming together in the middle of the ocean), spy ships by state actors trying to look like ordinary commercial traffic, and misrepresenting state of shipping assets for commercial leverage in contract negotiations.

No, it does not. They're not exclusive. I've written large pages that pretty much only used component classes for pills and buttons, with Tailwind using @apply. All the other elements used utilities. Paired with purge-css you get small CSS bundles and really quick styling.

You'd often use something like a component based JS framework or a server rendered templating language, making it easy to contain all utilities with shared logic in one place.
I mean, they should not just lie down, but I think the more lawful and orderly approach would be to appeal to a higher tier of authority that's supposed to be available within the legal system. Of course, easier said than done, but still I think that's what the "right thing" would have been.

I remember begging my mom to buy me GEB at a Barnes and Noble when I was about 17, about twenty years ago. The book was expensive, especially for a Mexican family, but the book was hyped up in Slashdot, so I really really wanted to read it.

I still feel guilty about it. The book sits in my bookshelf, spine unbroken. My mom recently passed away. I'm sorry, mom.
>In my eyes, moving money from one person to another is not value generation. Only work that improves the net quality of life is generating value.

Right, and that’s naive at best. There isn’t an unlimited supply of money. Choosing where to place money can result in massive value creation or destruction.

Labor (or physical work by anything) and value have no implicit or explicit relationship. That line of thinking has been discredited so many times (even in your own ditch digging example) that it’s not really worth getting into here.

And yet, they still apply to us. Your benevolent intentions do not invalidate our stake in the restrictions that are imposed upon us.

Many people find constant paternalistic intrusions on the part of the state to be a legitimately worse cost than a marginal increase in behavior by bad actors. Exercising authority over petty matters may be a free action in your utility calculus, but it adds up to a significant irritation and a material quality-of-life burden to those of us who value the freedom to simply buy a beer when we want to.

Please consider this point of view. Society is not a sterile engineering problem to be optimized in terms of concrete inputs and outputs.

I was genuinely interested in this but saw some issues in the pricing. The "starter" is for "up to 100 users" but then the "Organization Wide" plan is for 500 users and over. What happens in the gap between 101 and 499 users? Also, Office 365 integration is only available for companies with over 500 users, which makes it not really useful for me - I want (need) that integration, but would only have about 60 users. So, for those reasons, I had to pass. Everything else looked great, but there is a huge gap in features and pricing for small to mid-sized companies not yet at the 500 mark.

The fact I use Gmail allows them to make Google maps and Google assistant better products than say bing maps and Cortana, because bing maps and Cortana could never get access to those reservation emails which make the whole thing work.

Such monopolies should be illegal - everything should be sharable via an API. Sadly those seem to have gone out of fashion with things like Cambridge Analytica.

The Non-Weirdness of Negative Interest Rates
Crop labor has also seen a lot more automation in general than meat labor over the last several decades. Some crop farms are almost entirely automated (and International Harvester and other brands think that Level 3 self-driving tech alone puts them on a path to nearly full automation in the next decade or so), though obviously things vary based on which crop.

On the other hand, slaughterhouses generally haven't seen any automation and other than size/scale mostly still resemble their counterparts from previous centuries.

Re hair cuts: The range is from about $15 all the way to $125, depending on what you are getting done and where. Someone who runs their own small salon, and takes 45 minutes between shampooing, conditioning, talking to you about where to put texture in, and has expensive looking decor is going to cost a lot more than someone who rents a chair at a Great Cuts location.
isn't this sorta like proving the absence of something? surely for all the people who got caught having two families, some never did! fwiw, i also don't think its a good measure of intelligence, i just think some people configure their lives in such a way where they're better able to get away with things.
What do you mean by ""What transaction?", then if all you had was a transaction ID what do you do?" - that's a common process in online stores, you make a contract with an acquiring bank with the default scenario that you won't be processing transactions yourself (as most smallish customers can't or don't want to handle full PCI DSS compliance), then you (or the bank) contracts with one of the merchant gateway providers, and whenever you forward them a customer order session and get back a confirmation token, then you verify it afterwards (usually next morning after closing of business day) with your bank that you've got each transaction. Or something similar, details may vary - but it's an established process that works for thousands and thousands of companies without any significant trust issues. Yes, the gateway has to be trustworthy - in part that's the service they provide, to handle card data in a trustworthy manner because you don't want to be required to be trustworthy because doing things in a trustworthy manner is complicated and expensive - secure facilities, regular audits, four-eyes principle, separation of duties that's infeasible for smallish companies, etc, etc. You also have to trust your acquiring bank, and Visa/Mastercard network, that's also part of the deal.

"Also, to process refunds you need to have payment details." this is false, merchant gateways (in general, not all of them) can also execute refunds (or recurring payments) without you having any sensitive details but just that same transaction confirmation token they give you when the initial transaction was made, I've written code relating to these processes.
I have noticed that LinkedIn added a lot of addiction-forming "hooks" in the last year (maybe a little longer?), similar to other social networks. The most prominent among these that "liking" will repost to your connections' timeline.

I don't have a problem with this necessarily; after you have worked a while and have several hundred connections+ it is a great way to keep up with what people are doing, so long as they are posting something substantial (new job, press release, etc) and not reposts of empty quotes about innovation from Steve Jobs, Richard Branson, Vishnepolsky, etc.

I usually unfollow rather than disconnect. Disconnecting means I don't want to have anything to do with this person professionally, and you never know when a connection to someone might be useful.

> people should prefer using standard / built-in functions

I get that, but that's not what this list is: this list is re-implementing lodash / underscore using built-in functions. They're not a 1-for-1 replacement, they're complex implementations which may or may not be correct or efficient. If their solution for replacing _.chunk(...) was some built-in Array.chunk(...) or something, that would be fine. But instead, it's this:

> const chunk = (input, size) => {

> return input.reduce((arr, item, idx) => {

> return idx % size === 0

> ? [...arr, [item]]

> : [...arr.slice(0, -1), [...arr.slice(-1)[0], item]];

> }, []);

> };

That's definitely worse than using lodash.

Thanks, was going to write that this article was rather disappointing. It is more concerned with metadata about the miniseries and economic consequences rather than the story at the center.
You said we weren't willing to hear you out, but that seems unlikely to me. People sometimes come to HN with stories of how badly we've mistreated them, but rarely provide links or enough information to let readers make up their own minds. Mostly these stories leave out important details about how the account had behaved and how we interacted with them. But we do make mistakes—moderation is guesswork, and we guess wrong sometimes. If there's a chance of that, I'd like to know what we did so we can correct it.

We only use shadowbanning when accounts are new and show evidence of spamming or trolling, or unless there's evidence that the user has been serially creating accounts to abuse HN. It's possible we got it wrong in your case, but again, we can't correct mistakes if people won't tell us about them.

Bit of a tangent, but perhaps the issue with separation of concerns isn't so much that it's a bad idea, it's that it's not always a good idea; and secondly that css doesn't really enable separation of concerns like that. It's a fine idea to be able to give (essentially) a style a meaningful name, but only if you know what the meaning is and probably only if you intend to use it several times. Since CSS cannot really create complex styles from scratch meaning that you need wrappers and separators and whatnot as purely style elements, true encapsulation that's easy to use without knowing the implementation isn't really feasible.

Hence "separation of concerns" - to the extent that it's a good idea in the first place - doesn't work for html+css, and similar concerns mean it doesn't work very well for html+scripts.

Put another way, leaky abstractions are worse than no abstractions. Better to keep things transparent and merely expose helpers, instead of pretending you can hide complexity when you cannot really hide it.

I've found that since using Tailwind I've got a deeper understanding of CSS, got a greater understanding of UI design (Adam Wathan's tutorials are great) and produce and replicate designs quicker and easier.

It's a design system with constraints, which automatically gives me fewer and better options.

Using something like Bootstrap is probably easier and quicker if you're unfamiliar with writing CSS though.

All in all, quite far from styling with inline `style` (but it takes a bit of learning on the thought process behind it).
