To turn the engine. Lighting the fuel is easy enough. But overcoming the pressure inside the engine and getting ~50lbs of metal reciprocating and spinning from 0 to 1500rpm in a few seconds takes a bit of a kick.
> Are we supposed to be happy with two years?

If it was a laptop of desktop definitely not. And initially I wasn't happy with 2 years on a mobile phone because I thought they would age like their bigger brethren.

The reality is none of my mobile phones have aged gracefully. They've all slowed down to almost unusable some time after the 2 year mark, despite me fighting my way past the glue and tape to replace the non-replaceable battery. The really annoying part for me, a veteran embedded programmer who has rolled his own multitasking operating systems, is I have no idea what is causing this slowdown. Nothing I've done fixes it, up to and including including re-imaging the flash.

With my latest phone I've come to accept that I'll be replacing it in 2 years. My previous phone was a Nexus 6P which cost me around $1200, which I planned to have for about 5 years (but didn't). This time around it is a Nokia 8.1 which cost me a tad over $400, so even on a 2 year vs 5 year replacement schedule it would cost me less than the 6P.

The thing that did catch me by surprise is the Nokia 8.1 is a better phone than the 6P ever was - faster, better screen. Do things really move that fast in the mobile space? Maybe they do - everyone is adding bigger and bigger IPU's now. Compare that to desktop CPU's: I don't think they don't have IPU's yet.

Which brings me back to my original point. That 5 year expectation was set by my experience with desktop's. It seems for all sorts of reasons that experience doesn't translate to mobile phones.

Scottish babies too, as of a couple of years ago! The baby box is great: it's given to all parents pretty much automatically.

It's got everything a totally unprepared family would need to look after the baby for the first few days. Even as a not-completely-disorganised family, it was nice to have. And giving it to everyone is probably cheaper than trying to work out for which parents that level of support is necessary ahead of time. Not least because families who need the support are probably the least able to find it.

I'm very happy that my tax money is spent on preventative efforts, rather than relying on fixing things up after they've become critical.
What are those "climate issues" that you are referring to?

The only issue - but it has nothing to do with climate - is how to position your company so that it financially benefits from state-organized plunder (whether it's through direct fiscal spending, or though indirect theft such as subsidies).

Can someone provide an example of a startup actually impacting Earth's climate, or showing any indication whatsoever that it could, without employing direct or indirect use of force? Let me guess: you can't.

So pretend that it's about entrepreneurship? At least several commenters (such as https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20883900) say it makes no sense to try and instead argue in favor of the use of force (ie the government directly telling you want to do) which is indeed true - it's a use case in which "climate entrepreneur" is just an overhead. If you want to solve a problem with more government, you might as well get these unnecessary startups out of the picture - less overhead, more resources for the problem solvers in the government.

I think a large cause of impedance for engineers to understand the issue is: randomly-assigned ids don’t anonymise users, because you can still attribute an action uniquely to one user (even if you don’t know their name/personal details).

I think of it like the UID I get on a UNIX machine: it identifies me, and anyone with /etc/passed can get my name, and things that don’t have access to it can still see “oh uid 1099 is logging in again to play nethack”.

"Just wait to get your rights back" is not a great plan. Habeas corpus could be the nearest precedent - you can't lock some one up for a year and claim he just needs to wait. More importantly, once you're in the justice system, it's all but impossible to get out. The accused will inevitable be forced to somehow prove he's not a homicial maniac, because the premise of "flagging" is guilty until proven innocent. That's supposed to be what judges are for, but still, it's not perfect.

Car batteries are generally a starter battery (minus EV ones). They don't like being closed circuit for extended periods of time.

A low current is usually allowed (200mW is the top end in my experience), but anything over will, over time, sulfinate the plates in the battery and cause it too loose charge and capacity rapidly.

Generally if you want to run a low current device on a lead acid battery, you should use a deep cycle battery with plates designed for it. Starter battery have large, flat plates to carry a lot of current for only a few seconds tops, then be charged up again.

Quite, but they are still driving into stationary traffic. Nor is it only the immediately following vehicles - it's far from uncommon for vehicles minutes behind to crash.

That's not exactly how GDPR works - the criteria depends on what you mean by "share with a 3rd party".

If you as the data controller are allowed (according to GDPR) to do some particular processing of some particular data, then GDPR also allows you to subcontract that processing, and thus provide the data to third parties (data processors).

There are a bunch of restrictions in place (you have to have a specific contract mandating that they only do the thing with the data you're contracting them to do, you're responsible if they violate that, some restrictions on "exporting" data out of EU), and you have to inform the customer to what third party 'data processors' you (as the data controller) are outsourcing these activities - so CircleCI would be required to give an exhaustive list of all the data processors to which they have given your data, but you don't need explicit consent or a very particular reason for that outsourcing.

What is prevented by GDPR is the common (at least in USA) "sharing data with trusted third party partners" where the data is essentially sold to third parties which are free to use that data as they wish for their own business or re-sell it further. That would require a very particular reason or explicit consent, but this is not the common scenario of outsourcing to a GDPR-compliant vendor.

That assumes the battery behaves the same for low and high current (they don't).

Even lithium cells already don't; high currents causes them to warm up, reducing capacity. So a device that draws 1 Watt will last longer than one that draws 10 Watts from a small lithium cell.

Lead Acid responds even worse, especially starter batteries, less so on deep cycle, and it's capacity rapidly changes, without temperature influence. A 1 Watt device might only last a day while it's fine starting up an engine with 10 times the total power consumption

It will become one again with the new user space drivers being introduced in Catalina.

As announced at WWDC, it will be a progressive transition, for every new driver model being supported as user space driver, the related kernel space APIs will be automatically deprecated and removed in the following OS release the year after.

Good. There is no excuse for treating citizens this way. None. Not 9/11. Not the Boston bombings. Not anything else. They are citizens. If the government thinks they were criminals it should indict and put them on trial. Otherwise leave them alone. And if another attack ten times worse than 9/11 happens? So be it. The government should figure out another way that's not unconstitutional and doesn't treat people like animals to conduct their operations. Better thousands die under freedom than thousands live under tyranny. After all, as others have said and we have seen especially since 9/11, those who are willing to give up freedom for security will have neither.

>I'm quite annoyed by the superficial critics that are currently overflowing the comments. Of course this is [...] academic research

I'm guessing there would be less readers' irritation if the following text that's at the bottom was moved to the very top so it's the 1st thing people see:

>secushare is a research project that hasn't reached prototype status, yet. [...] So if you truly want to get started with secushare, please read how you can help on the introduction page.

Many readers would prefer that above text to be shown before the following paragraph which is structured as a "teaser":

>Imagine Facebook, Whatsapp, Gmail and Skype rolled into one, without the centralized surveillance and control. Crazy? Well, it hasn't been tried before, at least not our way. So let's give it a try.

The "let's give it a try" is actually a request for more "researchers" instead of "users". Instead of a beta or even alpha system to experiment with, the current status is that they need programmers to help build it from nothing to a prototype.

There's nothing wrong with asking for help but it takes a whole page worth of text to get to that point. Even if a software project has moral goals, it doesn't mean readers will not be annoyed at the way the presentation's text is ordered from least important ("imagine if...") to most important ("not even a prototype").

The HN demographic is probably overwhelmingly working programmers instead of academics so they're already predisposed to prefer something concrete they can try out.
Weight is the limiting factor. Try to find a generator that can output up to 400amps at 25V (what my big drone draws) and yet weighs less than five pounds including fuel.

I think that’s a more impossible goal than increasing power density in batteries is.
That still leaves lots of functionality in the kernel, most notably the BSD code (which implements Unix syscalls). So even with the new userspace driver support, most people would not consider xnu a microkernel.

> making sure that the cars work when out of reception is a “mission-critical success factor” for the company

It is so easy to call something mission-critical. I am always tempted to ignore it when I hear it, because most of the time it is a red herring. Instead I use it as a launching off point for a conversation with clients about priorities for a given solution.

I take your point about being "exposed" to the product, however it must be the case that ads want you to click them, otherwise clicking them would not do anything. Which is not the case.

A company spamming my eyeballs with visual ads to "raise awareness" does not get my money. I take particular offence to that, as it is my screen. Not a Billboard for example.

My point is proven in the HN website, where it enjoys a large readership, largely influenced by the sites clean, ad-free design.

Slashdot used to be like that until they started displaying ads, and that is what brought me to HN. Thank you HN for not doing this.

Given that:

1) Hitler was in the kaiser's military,

2) sent to spy / infiltrate a left-wing worker's party (DAP, "German Worker's Party"),

3) out of world-wide fear of communism (justified or not), turned it into the NSDAP ("National Socialist German Worker's Party")

4) including Jews as scapegoats (incidentally copying the failed tactic of the russian tsarist secret police, who fabricated the scrolls of zion thing, also to prevent communism)

5) with the well known clusterfuck that was WWII and the holocaust as a result

again, all due to 1) the kaiser's military sending Hitler on this path

then I don't know if there is much to inherit from the kaiser: if you or my parents have both property and debt, you either inherit both or neither, none of us get to cherry pick, why should the heirs of the kaiser get special treatment?
