One of CNN's legal analysts said in a tweet [0] that he can't recall hearing of any successful suicides happening in the prison where Epstein was detained.

I tried searching for reports or information about other suicides in Metropolitan Correctional Center - New York (MCC-NY) but wasn't able to find examples in the news. Admittedly, I didn't dig very deep and I'm completely unfamiliar with this domain. If you know of any sources showing examples of successful suicides in MCC-NY then I would be interested in learning about them.

Ideally we could review the prison's records for successful and unsuccessful suicides when on suicide watch and during regular imprisonment. The Bureau of Justice Statistics website [1] looks like it should have relevant data on this, but I'm too tired to sift through their reports tonight.

Surely our religious texts would be a lot more interesting in that case, just as they would be if actually influenced by an omniscient being.

None of that second commenter's objections even began to address the core of the original poster's point: whatever the exact details of the field configuration might be, it's inescapably true that the electric potential is zero at infinity, rises to a positive maximum at the + plate, falls quickly to a negative minimum at the - plate, and then returns gradually to zero at infinity again.

That means that if an ion's initial speed is "v0" well before it encounters the device, it may speed up and slow down while interacting, but its final speed will be "v0" again once the device has passed by. If its direction is unchanged (which is the intended case for the thrust-producing protons, as illustrated in Fig. 1 of https://www.centauri-dreams.org/2018/06/29/the-dipole-drive-...), that means that the ion will experience zero net change in momentum due to the device. By conservation of momentum (and/or Newton's 3rd law), the device won't have any net change in momentum either. (And if an ion reflects back, as the electrons are intended to in that illustration, the device is equivalent to a single charged plate.)

The debate in that earlier comment thread was all about how to correctly model the non-zero fields outside of the parallel plates: how quickly do they fall off to zero? But in the end, that doesn't matter. However small the fields outside may be, it is mathematically guaranteed that they will also extend over a large enough distance so their integrated effect from infinity to the nearer plate is exactly opposite to their integrated effect from that plate to the center of the gap between the plates.

They didn't learn the lessons from the C64 which was a runaway success. No effort to make a product line with forward compatibility. Minimal effort on software. Bizarre pricing strategies.

At least with Tramiel at the helm they had a strategy of going for the long tail of the market by selling at rock bottom prices. Once he was gone they floundered around, and almost got beaten by Tramiel's Atari. It's only once they release the Amiga 500 -- which looked an awful like the 520ST case and strategy wise -- and dropped the price that they caught the lead.

When I bought my ST the 500 wasn't out yet, and the Amiga 1000 was priced way beyond my budget. The 520STfm I bought with monitor was around the same price as the Commodore 128, which I was considering before I discovered the ST.

The "bulk" definition is more widespread and is the definition that's enforced more often. So, mentioning "commercial" is weird because most service providers don't care whether it's commercial or not, they care whether it's bulk or not.

Everyone wants to eat tomatoes in the middle of winter! I also want ice cream that tastes great but has no calories. If some company makes an ice cream like that but we find out 10 years later it's leading to the extinction of many insect species on the planet. Is it really my fault for buying the ice cream? Not the producers fault for using chemicals with such huge downsides?
Whether roundup is safe or not is not clear to me, but the decision of 12 unwilling laymen with no access to independent research tools is certainly not credible.
No there aren't two directions. There is only one road next to #422. On the other side of the street there might also be a road at #411 but that is (clearly) a different road.

These aren't 4 way intersections. Instead it is a main road with what an American would call an alley branching off of it. And the same distinction applies in Vietnamese, I live on a hẻm ("alley") not on a đường ("road" or "street"). These side alleys are almost never big enough for two cars to pass. Sometimes they aren't even big enough for two scooters or bicycles to pass.
I didn't like one aspect of the book, when he was trying to show that what simulated people feel doesn't depend on the way simulation runs, he was mainly focusing on computing later timeframes of the simulation before earlier ones, which is not possible.
I don’t trust the research that was done on roundup. Supposedly it degrades within six months.

The reality is that it doesn’t. We know this because the city of Davis, CA does public composting. Yard trimmings are scooped up, taken to the city compost yard, and over a year or som it becomes compost. Residents can pick up a quantity of free compost every year.

Around ‘97-‘98 the city compost started killing many kinds of plants.

The cause turned out to be glyphosphate. Despite Monsanto’s research, the reality was that glyphosate persists far longer than six months.
The value is still there though, today I have easier and better access to information, books, education, music, movies, games etc than the richest man alive 30 years ago. Back then people paid a lot of money to get information via physical media like huge encyclopedia sets, what we have today is both much better and much cheaper for everyone. But of course all of those books and cassettes were good for GDP while today's free services are not.
It’s so ironic that all the annoying insects are untouched or possibly worse: mosquitos, wasps, flies, roaches, termites, fire ants.

My original comment which brought up Doom 2016 in the first place did in fact argue that yes, Doom 2016 gave me no choice in how to play. It continually forced me into arenas where enemies spawned in a circle around me. IIRC, there were no individual enemies to trigger, only arena triggers. It also forced me to melee each individual enemy up close in order to gain any health back, precluding any long-range tactics.
The problem I see is that Uber doesn't understand that their UberEats market is not necessarily the same as their Uber taxi market.

What they fail to realize is that by centralizing their focus on highly populated metropolitan area like NYC and SF they are essentially trying to compete in markets that I wasn't even aware could have restaurants capable of sustaining their businesses when they don't have the option for delivery.

I mean i've been on treasure island and ordered food from just about every notable restraunt in SF you could think of and they all had in house speed delivery services that were willing to travel that far and still managed to get there within 45-75 minutes of placing the order. (presuming you don't order too close to the nightly commute out of the city)

Where Uber should really focus on promoting UberEats is more rural cities like just about every town in the midwest because out here we have a ton of towns with privately owned restaurants that are extremely profitable and yet don't offer delivery services because it's not profitable for them to do so; but it would be profitable for everybody if Uber offered their services as the middle man for every restraunt in town.

I mean i know of like 4 restaurants in town that 3 or 4 ubereats drivers could provide delivery services for and I know that number of drivers would have to grow to 8 or 12 within a year of providing the service. And there is virtually no competition out here and out here car delivery actually makes a lot more sense than trying to figure out where to park in NYC or SF.

Honestly the fact that Uber isn't already implementing this in my town by now, would concern me enough to consider shorting their stock.

There is nothing more telling in my view that a company is headed into uncharted territory it's totally not prepared to navigate than a company not understanding where they aught to set their heading because they haven't got even the slightest clue in which direction all the booty has been buried.
Interesting piece although I don't think they represent the point of view of the agitators fairly, for example the author writes:
" you ask supporters, they will tell you the cost does not matter so much, because this is about creating an ideal world. Of course the professor should be fired—how dare she stand against the minority student organizations? Of course it’s okay that the Yelp reviews were published—she should never have written them. Of course names should be changed if they hint at or honor the wrong ideology. What does preserving history matter if history is racist? "

What does honouring someone who is extremely pro-slavery even for their time have to do with preserving history? That history still exists whether they have a building named after them or not.
And I don't think you will honestly find many people who believe that the ends justify the means no matter what, although you will of course find some people who believe anything. So I think the "ideal world" bit is also somewhat a strawman and a mischaracterisation of people who are anti-racist or whatever.

I do however agree that a lot of this stuff doesn't really help those who need it most. The rich kids paying a 2% wealth tax funnelled into social welfare and education for the working class would do more, as would having Yale include more working and lower-middle class student.
But it's easy for me to say as a white guy that having many buildings named after pro-slavery politicians is not really doing any harm. Maybe we should ask those who would be more effected.
Yeah, tough crowd. Pulled the quote right from that promo reel.

This comes off as desperate.

The sad truth is hardly anyone truly cares what you are doing at work. Really, think about how much you truly care what your peers do day-to-day.

Your boss and co-workers care about:

a) results

b) not having to deal with bad/negative/pita personalties

c) avoiding crisis

Pull your weight, be helpful, and if you have a boss micromanaging you it’s time to update the resume, not do more work to justify your existence.
Maybe but not clearly so.

The produce I grow in my garden does in fact taste much better than the produce in the supermarket. There are good reasons for this. I grow heirloom varieties that were bred for taste and not shelf life. Watermelons and tomatoes in particular really do taste much better when they are under water stress. A watermelon that has been given too much water looks fabulous and has almost no sugar. I pick them when they’re ripe not a week before that.

IDK whether pesticides make produce bitter. But the rest of the post checks out.

What's the mechanism by which an email address found on a public website shouldn't be used to send email? Who decided on this social policy? I've been on the internet with email since about 1995 and this is the first time I've heard it suggested that public information shouldn't be "used" without permission. (And before you go off on a doxing tirade, let me address this: "using" someone's published physical address would be mailing them something - visiting them in person unannounced and/or republishing their address is definitely against social contract and might even be illegal.)

So what's the supposed social contract here? You found an email address but you're not allowed to email to it without permission? How do you get permission?

In France they show the country of origin (region when it is from France) and the variety. Sometimes they state if it is organic.

World Land Trust is a good option, you can "buy" land per acre to protect it in perpetuity. I think we need to protect what we have and then look at rewilding as a second step.

Ask HN: How to Use Local IDE for S3 Databricks as Non-Admin?
Hi experts,

Our company uses S3 Databricks for data storage, and I found the Notebooks difficult to work with (no auto-complete, error message useless, etc.). I'd like to use a local SQL IDE just for editing (i.e. I don't want to execute the commands locally, I only need the local IDE to know the schema so that it can auto-complete and post useful error messages, and I'll paste the code into Notebooks for executing the commands).

I read about the Databricks connector, but AFAIK it needs Admin privilege and I need to match the version. I'm wondering if there are other methods, thanks in advance.
