Consider this: To gain any information from a screen, you must actually look at it. You can only look at one screen at a time. The entire functionality of a second screen can be replaced with a single button: While that button is pressed, the screen shows whatever else it needs to show.

It is true that pressing a button is ever so slightly slower than moving your eyes. But considering all the benefits from saving a whole screen (double battery life! reduced manufacturing cost! smaller device size!), dual screenage is really just a gimmick.

All you need is a button dedicated to "screen" switching in software.
I wonder if there's a point where the leaching greatly diminishes after so long (b/c everything from the surface has leached).

For instance, I'd like to know if my hard-plastic Camelbak water container is now basically safe considering I've had it for about 4 years and refill it about 2/3 times a day, or if it's leaching at essentially the same rate as when it was new.
On the east and west coast, I've met quite a few teachers, and none have a 3 month break every year. Maybe a few weeks, but they are frequently tasked with continuing education or some other task during the summers. And during the year, they're always working 12+ hour days.
Large swaths of suburbia must be abandoned and the remaining hubs densified to fix this. No exaggeration.

This is often overlooked by people with superficial understanding of American geography. Ohio has the same population density as Spain, and a higher per-capita GSP, but none of Ohio’s cities enjoys rail service of any kind.

There are so many things that have changed in the last 50 years that there is a a large surface area of changes that could be causing mass hormone imbalance.

Plastics, daily dairy consumptions (every meal!), soy, sedentary lifestyle, processed food, lack of minerals in soil/food, not being exposed to natural fungus in soil and nature, not consuming enough fermented foods because we have refrigeration, not enough meditation we would get from sitting in front of a fire, not enough exposure to heat/cold in the natural seasons, not using natural ground water...
obviously not all of that, but my point is that it could be anything.

How does DNSSEC at the roots actually protect you from an attacker manipulating DNS? They'll simply target the records from the authority server for the name you're querying --- in fact, that's what they're targeting already --- which are almost certainly not signed. Isn't "trusting the roots with DNSSEC" just security theater?

Ask HN: Which podcast goes straight to the top of your list when it comes out?
I think we all have that one podcast that we like so much that whenever an episode comes out, it goes straight to the front of your queue. You can't wait to listen to it.

Could be about anything, doesn't have to be tech/startups related.

Had some amazing podcast recommendations from HN over the years, and I thought this could be a good way to discover even more. I know if someone here likes a podcast that much, it must be good.

Please do try to stick to that single one. I'm asking in this format purposefully to avoid long lists of recommendations that I'll never get round to reviewing. I want to really hone in on the truly special ones that stand out clearly from the rest.
Plastics are just pretty damn convenient materials. They're solid, cheap, can be made flexible or hard, don't rust, are easy to clean etc... Glass is heavy and breaks when dropped, metal is less heavy and only dents but it's more expensive than plastic. A lot of metal containers have an internal plastic lining simply so that food (and especially acidic food) doesn't react with the metal through direct contact.
I guess it's both, but I'm confident the number of people who disable SIP is very low. Third party graphics cards (and the lack of a variety of first party GPUs) has been an issue on Macs for decades. I'm sure their disputes with Nvidia has just made this worse. I assumed I would need to disable SIP when it was added just because of the things I tend do to, but haven't ever had a need.

They're fundamentally different, one is a progressive tax designed to support a civil society (income tax) and the other is a regressive usage-based tax designed to dis-incentivize behavior such as smoking, drinking and using gas/private automobiles. One's a benefit driver, the other is designed a penalty or market force.
But the Labour party aren't using this definition. They are talking about all employees, regardless of education, training or position.

Forgive me if I am misreading your post, but it appear you're saying that a minority elites that are employed by a company already receive shares, so this is already happening.

Under this plan, all employees receive a stake in the company, which is more in line with what the original article was suggesting.

Just the aggregate of the conservative population. It would be similar to saying that black people suffer discrimination in the US, to which I suppose you'd incredulously reply, "All of them? All black people? But I have a black friend who has never felt prejudged on matters of race." I wonder of the conversational instincts of such a person.

Recall George Bush Jr's presidential candidacy when banning gay marriage in the nation's Constitutional was a get-out-to-vote issue. Or California's 8. Why are these issues energizing? What about care for the poor and focus on education? Are these not red-hot winning issues?

You might also refer to the GOP platform of various states, or the GOP national platform. Here's some verbatim text from the Texas GOP platform, the 2nd-largest state in the nation.

> Homosexual Behavior: We affirm God’s biblical design for marriage and sexual behavior between one biological man and one biological woman, which has proven to be the foundation for all great nations in Western civilization. We oppose homosexual marriage, regardless of state of origin. We urge the Texas Legislature to pass religious liberty protections for individuals, businesses, and government officials who believe marriage is between one man and one woman. We oppose the granting of special legal entitlements or creation of special status for homosexual behavior, regardless of state of origin. We oppose any criminal or civil penalties against those who oppose homosexuality out of faith, conviction, or belief in traditional values.

> Definition of Marriage: We support the definition of marriage as a God-ordained, legal, and moral commitment only between one natural man and one natural woman.

> Overturn Unconstitutional Ruling: We believe this decision, overturning the Texas law prohibiting same-sex marriage in Texas, has no basis in the Constitution and should be reversed, returning jurisdiction over the definition of marriage to the states. The Governor and other elected officials of the State of Texas should assert our Tenth Amendment right and reject the Supreme Court ruling.

I would also argue that discussing American conservatism without a rich narrative on Christianity is obtusely blind.

> Religious Freedom: As America is “one nation under God,” founded on Judeo-Christian principles, we affirm the constitutional right of all individuals to worship as they choose.

If conservatives didn't care about gay marriage, then what political force would be left to oppose its legitimacy?

Creationists say there is actual physical evidence in support of creationism.

Your "test the faith" example for the dinosaurs is at best incomplete. https://www.icr.org/article/how-do-dinosaurs-fit-in/ is an example of a YEC justification which does not use that argument.

My point was to say that your arguments are weak, because they apply equally well to those who defend creationism.

You again write "the global cooling scare of the early '70s is one of these".

As I pointed out, this was primarily a scare in the popular press of the time, while the general consensus in scientific literature was that increased CO2 would lead to global warming.

What you are spreading is, and I quote again, "#7 in the most cited skeptic arguments", and demonstrated to be an invalid argument.

>I'm not convinced trains would be viable economically like they are in Japan.

In my opinion I think rail would displace a great deal of airline traffic because air travel security is such a chore, airlines have done their very best to squeeze out every last nickel and concerns about how green air travel is or is not. Add in the fact that there is far more room per passenger in a train and with dining cars (which are slowly dying) the food can be much better.

The biggest downside to rail travel in the US is the rail lines are owned by and geared for freight train operators. You really need completely separate lines (as you have in Japan) to compete on speed, but then competing on price would be difficult since it means building entirely new infrastructure. It could require government subsidy and in the current political climate that seems unlikely.

> If you pay taxes abroad the US will still haunt you to show that you paid - and if it's lower than you would have paid back home claim the difference.

That's only if you're lucky, and move to a country with a no-double-taxation treaty. There's only a few of them. No tax treaty, you pay the full amount due to both governments (after excluding your US foreign earned income allowance ~$90K).

Worse, if you live in a foreign country and start a business you now own what the US considers a "foreign controlled corporation" and your new nightmare begins. Not to mention many banks won't do business with you abroad because of FATCA and you have to report your balances annually to FinCEN or risk forfeiture of 50% of the balance in the account. And you can't open a brokerage account in a foreign country because you can't have an account not overseen by the SEC.

Then if your child is born abroad with no other connection to America they'll suffer the same fate for the rest of their lives unless they renounce, which itself comes with substantial costs.

I think the number of renunciations is fairly low because most dont make >90K in foreign countries, and FATCA is new-ish.

I dunno about no plastic but there may be less plastic tires. Maybe.

When I last bought new tires, I found out that tires lose a ton of their performance even at 50% wear rating. I thought I was doing well picking better tires than factory for my vehicles but it turns out any new tire would have had better handling because it was new.

As is common, people don't talk about the problems with their product until they have a solution. Michelin was experimenting with tire construction and formulas that were both greener and retained more of their behavior at 50% (or was that 70%?) wear level. Part of the rubber compound was derived from seed oils.

Of course, any woodworker knows about boiled linseed oil. When exposed to air it undergoes an exothermic reaction with oxygen that polymerizes it. Bioplastic. I'm not entirely sure nature makes a distinction between that substance and synthetic plastics.

So I'm a little skeptical of Michelin's woo woo about natural materials, since I'm no chemist and who knows what happens to those oils during the manufacturing process. I bought the tires but only patted myself on the back for having a safer car, not saving the planet via consumption.

WebRTC is peer to peer
This means that if one of your players has a slow connection, then the updates to everyone else may be slow.

The API for WebRTC is similar to WebSocket, so the client side JS should be easy to set up, except for initiating the connection. You will need to setup a STUN and perhaps a TURN server to get everyone to join correctly.

If you are using the WebRTC for voice for the player to hear, you will also need to setup a Media server, probably with SIP.
Agreed. I also sense he's too good (read: too smart) for W. DC politics. My hope is, he gets a respectable amount of attention and draw, then leverages that - for progress - outside of politics. Kinda like a young Jimmy Carter, or perhaps pick up with MLK left off in terms of financial injustice.

I realize there are some things that require gov / poltics. That's not my angle here. It's just that in Yang's case, my sense is, he has more to offer and can deliver more if he's not limited by politics; especially the current mess that it is.

Then in say eight years Yang goes for the jugular of W.DC. ATM, he makes too much sense, he's too far ahead. FFS the Dems are serious about Biden and nothing says 20th Century more than ol' Joe. Nice guy, etc. But he's hardly anything close to 2020 progressive.

Still low for required education. Also, the raises haven't matched inflation; but that's a larger problem across all jobs.
There's also the issue of optimizing for users of sports fans but pessimizing for the general population.

Say that they do this "right" and include a real-time websockets client that has all the proper reconnect logic, uses a minified protocol, has a proper real-time stack on the backend with all the appropriate DDoS protection, encryption, CORS, etc. All the client logic is extra bytes that need to be shipped on every search request. Or they could split the bundle and lazy-load it, which is still extra bytes, but fewer of them, and adds complexity. The server code needs to be audited for security; one compromised frontend server and the damage to Google is already more than the entire value of the feature. One black-swan websearch outage (caused, say, by a misconfiguration leading to the load balancers getting slammed by websocket connections, or a misconfiguration causing the DDoS servers to think websearch is actually undergoing a DDoS when it's just normal websocket traffic) is already more than the entire value of the feature. The bar for simplicity and reliability has to be pretty high for a feature that's going to be used by 0.0001% of users, because if there are any negative effects at all on mainstream websearch traffic, that feature should never have been launched.
You're 100% right that this isn't a problem that began or ends with the current administration. There's a lot of work to be done from every party and every age group!

I’m not so sure, my mom has been a teacher for 6 years and makes around 40k. Similar story for her peers.

And even a 20% raise wouldn’t allow her to afford a home, or to send her kids to college without a huge debt burden...

To be honest, I don’t even really care if that ends up being “in line with industry” some how, that’s still way too damn low. At that point everyone should be paid more.

EDIT: realize I mistyped wage, my points still stand about houses or college, and it’s not like her wages will go up much.
I can’t help but think how prescient Micheal Okuda was when he designed the flat, touchscreen-only LCARS (Library Computer Access and Retrieval System) interfaces for Star Trek: THe Next Generation that first aired way back in 1987, rationalising that he was looking to create a visual style which implied a simplified, abstract system of controlling vastly complex processes in a user-friendly, high-level manner. 32 years on flat GUIs and touchscreen-everywhere interfaces are closing in on his vision. Truly remarkable.

My point was that it wasn't some new radical idea - many people (not really elites - random programmers at tech companies, or marketers at agencies, or whatever aren't 'elites' by any stretch) are already getting this and it works fine without government intervention.

I would guess that at least 10% of Google, for example, is already owned by the employees? I may be wrong.

I actually find the story very interesting. I'm curious about one things: do vultures actually learn the geography, presumably from each other and not direct experience? Or are they following concentration of some carrion-related volatiles - i.e. turning around where the air stops smelling tasty?

And Facebook clearly isn't a bank. If Facebook collapsed, half of the world would cheer and bailing them out with - supposedly - taxpayers money would be political suicide. Even with Libra Facebook wouldn't be bailed out because people wouldn't lose their savings since Facebook is just a wallet.

With this regard, FB would even be safer than banks, it's like deposits are automatically insured, yet there is no limit to the amount being insured (no 100k cap). There more I think about it, the more I feel Facebook really screwed in terms of communication, they were really naive and there were much better ways to present this project.
