I came here to say essentially this. To your point about how low (in percentage terms) the concentration of CO2 is, direct carbon capture from the atmosphere still seems a fool's errand to me. The only way I see carbon capture being at all viable for this purpose in the short term is to scrub the waste gasses from industrial processes where carbon-containing compounds are extremely concentrated.
This is pretty nifty, thanks.
Honestly I am glad they went after the GoPro. The GoPro is now a buggy piece of shit.

I switched over to an OsmoAction and I finally realized how many annoyances I was putting up with GoPro.
I mean, compared to Lord of the Rings, yeah.
Yeah, I'm not sure I'd ever try selling something that heavy on eBay, I'd only turn to local buyers.
Because I found this interesting, I dug a bit further, and here's what I found.

This graph only has observed data out to 2009. I'm unable to find a graphic with updated data, but this year the September minimum was 4.15 million, or about tied with that lowest point on the graph.

I am also not sure of what revisions (if any) have been made to those IPCC projections.
However the number was agreed upon, the arctic ice reality is very bad for humanity and possibly catastrophic.

If I was an insurer and the Earth was a house, I would not be offering a policy.
Any NY-based design roles?
It is nothing like that. Predictions about climate change, while often imprecise, are largely evidence based. Religious prophecies are not. Regardless of if you believe the doomsayers and the timeline, we are clearly trending in that direction.
You may want to add a "Show HN:" to the title
Maybe you can move to NY for a month, get employed by GitLab for $140k and then work remote from Nebraska... :-)
"There isn't a free market economist that wouldn't agree that the state has a role to play in ameliorating [negative third party externalities]"

Actually there are plenty of free market economists that would argue that negative externalities are the result of poorly defined property rights.

I completely understand your point.

I am perplexed at the value of these 'distant relationships' and question if they're necessary. I have spent a lot of time thinking about that and have no good answer.
Elections are free, but the influence money has on our government after elections is where the problem lies. And even the "free elections" portion is being eroded since Citizens United.

I'm not saying China is better, but the fraction of control the average US citizen can exercise over the government in the defined political process is much, much smaller than `1 / 330,000,000`...
> Its always better to hold onto the option of buying a stock

Tax laws change that equation significantly.
> The US is an empire. Not based on governmental control, but based on financial control.

But people in the US can remove legislatures and the top executive(the President). Do people in China have that option?
The national guard, the modern militia, can still be called out by state governors. Under the law they are controlled by the federal government, but in a dictatorship and civil war situation that might not mean much (just as how in the American civil war many members of the military resigned and fought for the southern rebels)

It’s likely any successful revolution or insurgency would have outside backing.

Vietnam was backed by the USSR, the taliban receives support from Pakistan, the insurgency in Iraq was supported by Iran, and so on.

Just like we ourselves destabilized Syria and Libya by supporting insurgencies there.

As demonstrated by the 2016 elections, there are other countries out there even now who are eager to interfere with the US.

In a theoretical future US dictatorship, perhaps support for an insurgency might come over the border from Canada and Mexico. We are dealing with a hypothetical situation far from what today’s international and national politics look like, of course.

Uh, he's not wrong. You have to jump through some serious mental hoops to avoid classifying the current American right as Populist. They clearly have no qualms about using government to control social norms (e.g. abortion, marriage). There's not much anti-authoritarian about that.

If you don't understand the other side, or worse mischaracterize them, how can you possibly hope to bridge the divide?
I like those quotes! I may borrow those if you’re ok with it.

And I agree with trying to find the best bang for the bucks. Especially if your project existed without tests at any point. You’ve got to pick and choose wisely.

It doesn't roll out the dough which is probably the most labor intensive step.
Grounding airplanes looks a lot like chopping off your own fingers because losing weight in a more systematic way is hard.
If I prefer social interactions at a bar and I allow a friendship to suffer because I don't respect a recovering alcoholics preference to avoid those places it makes me the arsehole, not them.
Calling parts of your application "services" means that you're already thinking in terms of the "services/API" metaphor. If you're not using services, you might be, for example:

- Building one large application (monolith). Parts of the application communicate with each other via function calls. Everything runs in one large process. You can go quite a long way with this approach, especially for parts of the application that are stateless. (You can also build components of the application using a service/client metaphor within the process as well.)

- Multiple separate applications might communicate with the same database, file system, or some other data store. Before we had distinct distributed systems components taking on the role of queues, event buses, and things like that, it was common to represent queues using folders or database tables. These approaches are still seen today, though they're uncommon in new applications.
I'm conservative libertarian. I am by no means alt-right or right but people label me as extreme right without excuse.
Problem is that every 25 years you have a fresh new generation that needs to be taught the same lessons.
Open, unencrypted, easy to reverse engineer with a packet sniffer. I hope it stays that way, because I built a project[1] that kinda depends on it. Should that change, my project suddenly requires a fair amount of annoying and complicated work.

DJI makes multiple drones at multiple price points. I think not making it fold-able is going to hurt them. I know some people use their drone to follow them, but a lot of people just to fly their drone. I don't see why they would have any advantage in that space. I feel this probably cool technology without a good market fit.
"G. Mondini pizza assembly lines feature the highest cycle speeds in the industry - up to 7,200 pizzas per hour." (https://www.refrigeratedfrozenfood.com/articles/83570-pizza-...)

Judging from https://youtu.be/Do7qLGiVbwY?t=164, the advantage is that they have 3 pizzas in each row rather than just one, and that the pizzas move much faster along the conveyor. It's also not clear from the article but the Seattle system might only support 1 pizza in the system at a time.

The dough is still hand-made, which is an advantage over frozen pizza dough which pretty much sucks, so I'd guess they're primarily interested in selling to delivery pizza chains as a more upscale pizza. Domino's peak is 160 pizzas/hour and they open stores until the average is <100. (https://www.quora.com/How-many-pizzas-does-a-Manhattan-pizze...)
The home page has detailed information about the technology, UX, and full specs.
Yes, on my list the latter is a more serious problem than the first, it is more certain to be happening, and its effects are more permanent.
I'm been using a pretty "obscure" fork named PuTTY CAC. The big feature added is that you can use it with a SmartCard including a Yubikey.

I know the most popular use of Yubikey + SSH is via OpenPGP but it involves a lot of things which are not working very well on Windows (namely GPG4Win, unstable gpg-connect-agent, etc.).

With this fork, you just need to install the official Yubikey mini driver to have it work with PuTTY CAC. (You will also need Yubikey Manager to configure your key).

Connect your Yubikey, launch PuTTY CAC, look in SSH>Certificate, enable Attempt cert auth, Set CAPI cert (choose your Yubikey cert).

It even works through Windows Remote Desktop.

Do those people contribute significantly more than they would have had they stayed home, though? If a person would have emitted X at home, but instead flew somewhere and emitted X there, I don't think it makes sense to blame the airlines for that X. (But blame them for the emissions related to the travel, sure)
Twitter is for the most part as toxic as you make it. You have to be willing to aggressively cull the people you follow, and there are always promoted Tweets in there possibly crapping over your nice timeline, but you can make a pretty nice place by being selective in who you follow.

Also, if you care at all what your "score" is on a social media site you will grow to hate it. No matter what the site is remind yourself it always has Who's Line rules: The points don't matter. If you're not an asshole they tend to just come naturally with time. If you're being hidden because your score is too low then you should probably step back and ask if you really want to be part of that community, since you seem to be so at odds with it.
TheVerge video has some good footage of their reporter testing out the functionality https://www.theverge.com/2019/10/1/20892377/skydio-2-drone-a...

edit: I work at Skydio -- all the footage you are seeing is real and filmed entirely on Skydio 2. In our launch video each clip is labeled with "Flying Itself - No Pilot" where it is totally autonomous and "Piloted with AI Assist" when a pilot is using Skydio Controller combined with on-board obstacle avoidance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=imt2qZ7uw1s
Well, competitive is relative, right? It seems to me the going rate in tech hubs is around $400k/yr. I have seen some pretty sweet remote gigs but not yet one that pays that.
I used to use Putty for all my SSH on windows, until I discovered mobaXterm; it's Fk amazing. not only an SSH client, but you can also browse files at destination, and copy files there from same window; it also has xserver built in to run GUI on destination machine
I've heard multiple times that for a startup to succeed, it needs an idea, a great team to execute it and funding, and that it is enough to have two out of these three. Invariably, the people that say the latter are the ones that have no ideas.
> That speed comes in handy in places where large numbers of orders come in during a rush, such as at a stadium or in large cafeterias

In other words, their pitch isn't to be appetizing. It's to crank out a lot of pizzas for buyers who aren't being picky at peak hours when you can sell just about anything.
PT4 and HM2 are still the dominant software products but more sites have popped up that either block all HUDs who limit your options to one or two random crappy offshoot HUDs that happen to work with that site for whatever reason. You can still usually export your hands to PT4 and/or HM2 after the fact.
> how about we don't start there.

How about we start everywhere that can help? This trope that goes around that we should only focus on the biggest problem, and let everything else slide... that is why nobody does anything.

So how about we improve everything that we personally can, large or small, and drive a cultural change that shows big business/energy that the world does care about this, and they should, too.
Well, for any of the topics listed I can recall an idea I've seen, mentioning which would get one ridiculed and in some cases probably Twitter-mobbed, so I don't see how they can't get actual heretical ideas there.

(Geoengineering is probably the least heretical on the list, but for some reason there's apparently something close to an UN moratorium on the topic. Which is sad, because I'm not having much hopes we'll survive this century without some large-scale intervention to Earth's carbon and heat exchange cycles.)

Also, I see zero relevance between being "left" and "right". Personally, I think these labels are doing huge damage, pretty much stopping all thinking.
Could we redesign the fuel system to (safely) remove the water somehow? Or prevent the fuel from absorbing moisture in the first place?
The downside of freedom of speech is what one has to read, sometimes..
> brother’s wives posting about their kids and stuff like that

Either that is a misplaced apostrophe, or you are revealing more about your family than you intended! Punctuation is important :)
My linked in is only for recruiters. I rarely update it. Every time I go on it I get kind of sick I guess? Like I can't really say what makes me dislike it, maybe it feels corporate? It feels like everything there is just to promote yourself? Idk but I hate it.

what exactly was reductionist about my analogy? which features of the conflict did i reduce? is it not the case that both sides having contrary perspectives on many of the same objects facts? did i imply somewhere that i endorse one side or the other? (which i do but i haven't in any way let on which).

> since most people seem to want a world where they primarily consume media.

553,000 people in the US are homeless, but I don't think most would say they "don't want a home". 2.3 million people are in prisons, but I don't think that's the place they "want to live". 15.1 million have an alcohol abuse disorder, but I don't think they would all characterize it as "wanting to drink". 12 million people in the US experience rape, violence, or stalking from a partner every year but I wouldn't characterize them as "wanting to be in that relationship".

Behavior reflects all sorts of things outside of the person's intentions and aspirations. One of the goals of a just society is to give people a framework that helps them reach their goals.
Not sure I totally see the equivalence. UK has been part of the EU since only 1973, and then with only one foot in the door (maintaining separate fiat currency monetary policies). Has Quebec ever been a separate country? Has Canada ever been divided?

So much fear mongering. It was a referendum, decided by popular vote (a concept I hear is really catching on in American electorate politics).
I understand your point. I've got downvoted several times when I critized socialism here at HN.
The speakers that support Airplay can proxy Airplay to the others, with caveats: you can group a speaker that's playing Airplay with speakers that don't support AirPlay and it'll play back on all the speakers just fine. The big catch is that the speaker that's actually receiving the AirPlay stream has to keep playing it; if you ungroup that speaker, it'll stop AirPlay playback on all the grouped speakers. Not sure whether that's an actual technical limitation or just a limitation in Sonos's UI, though.

I wish AirPlay behaved more like Line In does (on speakers that support that), where the Line In devices become available to any speakers on the network.

The only thing I regret about not having FB anymore: I don't know when peoples' birthdays are.

For the entire history of humanity, we didn't know anything about anyone's lives unless we saw or talked or heard about them. I don't consider it a loss to not know distance acquaintances' life updates...if it's important, I'll hear it from other FB users or from an important friend.
