> D2. [...] The CO2 we generate from fossil are not the same we breathe out. Trees don't absorb fossil fuel CO2 as well as what we breathe out.

I found a bit more information about plant preferences for carbon isotopes. It seems to be implying that plants absorb fossil fuel CO2 better than atmospheric CO2, since plants prefer the lighter carbon 12C isotope, plants have lower 13C/12C ratios than the atmosphere, and fossil fuel is made out of plants, hence fossil fuel has a similar carbon isotope ratio to plants.

This doesn't support or refute your comment about CO2 we breathe out being easier for plants to consume, but it does suggest that CO2 from burning fossil fuel is easier for plants to consume than general atmospheric CO2.

> Carbon is composed of three different isotopes, 14C, 13C and 12C. 12C is the most common. 13C is about 1% of the total. 14C accounts for only about 1 in 1 trillion carbon atoms.

> CO2 produced from burning fossil fuels or burning forests has quite a different isotopic composition from CO2 in the atmosphere. This is because plants have a preference for the lighter isotopes (12C vs. 13C); thus they have lower 13C/12C ratios. Since fossil fuels are ultimately derived from ancient plants, plants and fossil fuels all have roughly the same 13C/12C ratio – about 2% lower than that of the atmosphere. As CO2 from these materials is released into, and mixes with, the atmosphere, the average 13C/12C ratio of the atmosphere decreases.

Cool. With Electron your app will only work on Linux/Windows/MacOS. There are other cross-platform solutions.

searching for "CADT" syndrome yields better results in both search engines.

As of now, the best resource (https://www.jwz.org/doc/cadt.html) is avaiable on both search engines as the first result for this query, and somewhere in the first ten or so results for "CADT Syndrome". The best set of results (for my Google history) is in Google's verbatim mode searching for "CADT syndrome" (the link under the search bar with the autocorrected version) which includes mailing lists and release notes from various opensource projects

interestingly there is also another meaning of CADT (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4610895/) which is less favored in google, but shows second place in ddg. Perhaps if we were into medicine papers this would show up higher in google.

Only ddg results include this (Hacker News) page and the comment you referenced (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21337404)

Bottom line, both gave me useful results, ddg needs a better verbatim mode, google tracks me

>Throughout the late 1960s, the militant black nationalist group used their understanding of the finer details of California’s gun laws to underscore their political statements about the subjugation of African-Americans. In 1967, 30 members of the Black Panthers protested on the steps of the California statehouse armed with .357 Magnums, 12-gauge shotguns and .45-caliber pistols and announced, “The time has come for black people to arm themselves.”

>The display so frightened politicians—including California governor Ronald Reagan—that it helped to pass the Mulford Act, a state bill prohibiting the open carry of loaded firearms, along with an addendum prohibiting loaded firearms in the state Capitol. The 1967 bill took California down the path to having some of the strictest gun laws in America and helped jumpstart a surge of national gun control restrictions.
If a developer has already decided they care about resource consumption and bloat so little that they're distributing on Electron, then why would you expect them to care about resource efficiency at all?
I agree with this. Unfortunately that’s a designer bottleneck rather than anything else. Think of it this way, if somebody ends up with a mess of an Electron app, he or she probably wouldn’t have fared any better in usability with a native app even if the UI would look superficially ‘in-spec’.

Edit: Also as an example, Aether comes with plenty of shortcuts, or even has proper tabbing and tab highlighting for low-vision users. Electron prevents none of these, in fact the platform it’s based on, the DOM, is one of the most accessible platforms ever made in terms of support. Whether people actually make use of it it is another matter.
This is itself bad advice. The proper solution is a truly random password, committed to memory, and all others being stored in a password manager, which is itself secured by a separate strong password

I disagree that college is a scam. I went many years ago when it wasn't that expensive, I had a job and also scholarships, was able to pay as I went with some parental help. But it was nothing like today, where it costs 30k a year at a reasonable state school. My generation has not met our responsibilities to maintain our countries infrastructure including educational infrastructure. It doesn't help that much that I have argued and voted against the direction of making education ever more expensive (in part because of lack of state funding).

However, I think the question is how likely it is that you would be able to become the best in the world at something?

I think that people who are the best in the world at something tend to be genetic freaks. Are you one? Probably not.

In that case, attempting to become the best in the world might mean setting yourself up for failure, though presumably you would still be more successful than an average person. It's just that there's a massive difference between being in the top 10% and the top 1% in terms of reward.

I'm a developer who primarily uses ReactJS for the front-end. I chose the library years ago because it just made sense to me. I really liked the syntax (JSX), the lifecycle methods and the quick hot reloads. The only thing at the time that I really didn't like was the build system (browserify, gulp, webpack, babel, etc) as I found it overly complicated. Now all of that is basically invisible with "create-react-app" and I can just get right to building applications in seconds - life is pretty good.

With each React update however, I worry that ReactJS's scope/concerns is growing far beyond the view layer that is was initially designed to be. I worry that it will become just another bloated "framework" with unnecessary complexity and drive me into the lighter weight and more focused alternatives such as VueJS or Svelte. Perhaps the React team is getting bored?

IMO I'd like to see a base ReactJS with these advanced features being add-ons in some fashion. Keep the version I like to use lean and the complexity just where I like it.
This doesn't seem like a very intellectually honest appraisal of the situation. Most obviously, gun manufacturers are not exclusively serving people who live in safe suburban areas. Also, gun manufacturers tend to only advertise in publications and spaces that gun enthusiasts frequent, so anyone who might be influenced by them has already decided to include violent crime in their threat model and prepare accordingly.

And lastly, perhaps anecdotally, I've never ever seen anything to the effect of that message outside of tongue-in-cheek internet forum shitposting. Firearms manufacturers are highly feature-oriented in their marketing, with some generic patriotic bells and whistles if anything. What you wrote is just a gross caricature of the motivation and practice of self defense.

This is one of those cases where a picture is worth a thousand words. It's amazing to me sometimes how many support requests I get where there is no information about what is wrong, no screenshots, no log files, not even a couple sentences about what they were trying to do and what they expected to happen.

Although it's almost worse when they send along a JPEG screenshot that has been downsampled >50%, so all the details are too blurred to make out.

Thank you! That’s good feedback. It’s there because the demo implies that it’s the demo of the same app, while in reality it’s a similar app targeting a different user base (a superficially Reddit-like peer to peer network). That’s why I say I have two apps, Aether and Aether Pro. The demo on the Aether Pro website is actually just regular Aether P2P.

I’ll try to find a way of making it less of a showstopper though - might be a better way to tell this.

Ford hopes 'Mustang-inspired' SUV will shock Tesla, electric vehicle world
Former news editor here. I left the journalism world about eight years ago because of the poor shape the business was in. But I still love journalism and hope it finds a viable business model.

I wanted to address a point that this blog post brings to mind.

There were advertisers then, and there are advertisers now. The advertising market hasn't dried up.

So why was the business model robust then and in shambles now?

Well, one explanation that people often point to is that there are now many more places to advertise. Back then, newspapers were one of the best places to advertise if you wanted to reach a lot of eyeballs. Now you can advertise on Google and other search sites, you can advertise on any number of blogs and other sites through AdSense and other ad delivery networks, you can advertise on social media, you can place classified ads on Craigslist, etc. So newspapers now have to compete against all these other properties in a way they didn't have to do in previous generations.

But there's another consideration that is just as important and doesn't really get talked about as often. With the dawn of digital advertising, where every view, click and conversion is neatly accounted for, advertisers have come to realize that newspaper advertising has always been a low-return-on-investment marketing avenue, even when it was the only game in town. They just didn't have the metrics to prove it.

What we know now is that click-through rates on news sites are really not substantially better than click-through rates on Joe Schmo's random blog -- but they _are_ substantially worse than in certain other business segments, like search.

So the real battle isn't even a battle for advertiser's attention. It's a battle to remain viable even though the advertisers would be better off advertising elsewhere.

What of your mobile traffic would your ISP actually get though? Can you GeoIP a connection from a cellphone? That's probably coarse data at best right? They could probably buy the location data from the mobile carrier, but that's not something they'd get for free.

What the user was actually doing on their home VPN be largely opaque to the ISP. They might be able to make educated guesses like "this much traffic over this period of time looks a lot like somebody streaming a movie off their NAS", but that's pretty crude. I'm not sure they could really monetize that sort of data.

On the other hand home VPNs being common would probably increase the how much uploading the average user did. These sort of residential connections are almost always asymmetric because ISPs are counting on people downloading far more than they upload. By empowering users with home VPNs, the balance of upload/download might be upset in a way that isn't profitable for the ISP.
Enlightenment, in the Buddhist definition is not the abandonment of morality, it follows its perfection. Thats why monks are required to be celibate.

From the second link above;

"Abandoning uncelibacy, he lives a celibate life, aloof, refraining from the sexual act that is the villager's way."

Also, see this sutta, as per point 9:

https://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipitaka/mn/mn.022.nypo.html...

Enlightenment is the abandonment of sense desire, among other things.
I never thought of this angle before, but imagine if a SV startup started a distribution model in 2019 depending on young teens riding their bikes around neighborhoods early in the morning before school. There'd be endless articles shaming them for child labor and for foisting their costs on to vulnerable workers.

Really not sure what to make of that. Other than maybe our outrage triggers have been honed to a razor's edge
This is a somewhat obvious take on the decline of paper journalism. Yes, you paid for that newspaper / magazine, but the majority of money is in the ads space. Even that payment? A screening tool for advertisers -- if you don't read the paper or more importantly see the ads, you'll presumably cancel and save the money.

There was a tweetstorm by some journalism prof I can't recall that was basically saying newspapers killed themselves, by consolidation, mergers and over-reliance on classified ads and news-by-wire. By the time Yahoo! news came along started publishing AP news wire feeds, and Craigslist allowed free listings, they had already cost optimized away local news they'd need to compete against new entrants. Perhaps someone will find that twitter thread for me.
Adding onto this point, I think one thing to recognize about the future of LA as a big media hub is the fact that tons of popular Youtubers and other independent content creators will relocate to Los Angeles due to the agglomeration of talent that exists there.

This is much more similar to how things work with SF/SV in the context of startups.
I'd rather have a second kid before I ever get a dog. Kids grow out of diapers after a couple of years. You have to pick up a dog's crap for its entire life. Kids eventually go off on their own and do things, get their own food, and take more and more care of themselves. Dogs will never do that. And lastly, if you raise 'em right, your kids will eventually take care of you!.

Obesity is not caused by poverty. Poor people are stupid and they make bad decisions. I'm sorry if the truth offends you. Keep searching for that rosy ignorance that soothes you.
Not to mention you can still keep your pure UI components separate from your components that have data fetching logic (aka containers).

Components are highly reusable.

Containers are coupled to specific API calls or logic.

I still default to doing as much data fetching on the top-level page component as possible and trickling data down. But if there's certain logic or data fetching I re-use in multiple places that don't need to block the whole page, I'll definitely refactor that into hooks + containers and delegate that data fetching lower in the tree.
Everything we do professionally can be a recipe for burnout. We also have strong policies to prevent it but that's another topic altogether.

A "short-ish" article written in an afternoon has no hopes of being a tablet of truth, just some anecdotal examples and ideas I've experienced over the years.

I fundamentally agree with the "Be human..." part, that's all you need if common sense is common around your workplace. Unfortunately it often isn't and you need to offset the unbalance to find equilibrium.
That's odd. What about the papers published between 70 and 10 years ago?
I hope you’re kidding about the two safes thing. Either hire an attorney for this purpose or accept that your family will have little to no recourse for challenging claims from individuals, businesses and family members who claim rightful ownership of parts of your estate. You can buy all the safes you want but they won’t hold up in court.

Even if you want your spouse to be your executor you need an attorney to receive your power of attorney immediately so that they can make him/her the executor. Without an attorney and notarized documents, if someone shows up with a piece of paper that says they get everything and it has your signature then their claim is just as valid as your spouse’s.
You have to sell yourself as an employee as well. For example I am able to sell my self to clients but can't get a real company to give me the time of day.
the school's database may not store strings like "A", "B+", etc. I'd guess it stores grade points, which can be more directly used to calculate GPA. so at schools where A is the highest grade, it is already represented by 4.0. it's probably more trouble than it's worth to accommodate values outside this range just to symbolically correct a grade several decades later.
PGE is not cutting power to prevent fires. That is proven by their cutting power in places where there was no unusual wind -- almost everywhere they cut.

PGE wants to extort free indemnification from the state against their own gross negligence. The right response would be to confiscate PGE's assets, and turn them over to somebody who will actually be a responsible public utility. Public Utility Districts have demonstrated an ability to do that in many places, Sacramento included.
It's a good thing you are reconsidering the approach, but I don't see how this is related to this "title subthread". At the time this subthread started, the title was "Gitlab mandating third-party telemetry, locks out user access until accepted" and these things were, in fact, true at that time. The fact that telemetry had not yet implemented did not change the fact that it was being mandated.

I would like to also note that my stance that the non-original title (at the time) was fine does not have anything to do with that title "looking bad" for GitLab. For example, the title now is "Gitlab ‘rethinking’ third-party telemetry", which is also not the original title, looks somewhat good for GitLab and I think it's fine.
Are there any similar UI libraries that are actually less complex? I’m pretty sure the DOM engines in browsers, which people might think of as “simple,” are incomprehensibly complex. I’m sure that the Android and iOS UI libraries are significantly more complex than React.
I wouldn't necessarily say it's just the way it looks, it's also how things work that you get for "free" when you use the native UI toolkit.

Examples would be shortcuts, tabbing through form fields, how a file explorer works and other small things. The file explorer in VSCode for example doesn't really behave like a native one, you have to manually refresh, you can't easily drag and drop and everything just feels a bit off.
As a solo founder, I doubt there are any other platforms that make economic sense to support, especially if it pulls effort away from the real money makers. Depending on the market, Linux wouldn't even make sense to support for most companies and it's only supported because Electron supports it out of the box.
