The only meaningful service jornals provide is coordination of peer review. Reviewers are unpaid. Content is distributed electronically and there is already well established non-commercial infrastructure (like arXiv) in place for doing this. There are really two different issues at play here: The first is that professional societies like the APS who do lots of essential work like organizing conferences need to be funded more robustly than through membership dues alone. The second is that the commercial academic publishing industry is obsolete, and already had to be dragged kicking and screaming to reach the level of open access we have now.

Without exception, laptops are two panels connected by a hinge, with the top containing a screen and the bottom a keyboard and trackpad. The “desktop” metaphor is universal — draggable, tilable windows adorn a hierarchical filesystem.

Basically all modern phones are rectangles dedicated entirely to their screens, with which you interact using your fingers. Turn them on and you get a grid of app icons, each of which takes up the full screen when launched.

Sure, there’s a lot more variation on top of these foundations — but then, computers are way more complex than cars.

* “System-wide Benefits of Intermeal Fasting by Autophagy“: https://www.cell.com/cell-metabolism/pdf/S1550-4131(17)30608...

> We established an isocaloric twice-a-day (ITAD) feeding model wherein ITAD-fed mice consume the same food amount as ad libitum controls but at two short windows early and late in the diurnal cycle. We hypothesized that ITAD feeding will provide two intervals of intermeal fasting per circadian period and induce autophagy. We show that ITAD feeding modifies circadian autophagy and glucose/lipid metabolism that correlate with feeding-driven changes in circulating insulin. ITAD feeding decreases adiposity and, unlike CR, enhances muscle mass. ITAD feeding drives energy expenditure, lowers lipid levels, suppresses gluconeogenesis, and prevents age/obesity-associated metabolic defects. Using liver-, adipose-, myogenic-, and proopiomelanocortin neuron-specific autophagy-null mice, we mapped the contribution of tissue-specific autophagy to system-wide benefits of ITAD feeding. Our studies suggest that consuming two meals a day without CR could prevent the metabolic syndrome.

We use the method to identify constitutive autophagosomes in cortical neurons and Purkinje cells, and we show that short-term fasting leads to a dramatic upregulation in neuronal autophagy.

"Redistributing wealth" is not really an appropriate answer for what has been described, as any newly received resources would just be transferred away under the same everdebt setup.

My retired dad lives alone in a 4 bedroom house walking distance from Apple he bought in 1981. It seems the region could benefit if such people had more incentive to downsize elsewhere, but prop 13 means even a much smaller place would have a way larger tax bill than he now enjoys.

There was a ballot measure recently that would let such homeowners transfer their 1973 era tax bills to another property, but it had no stipulation that the next place be smaller. It lost.

I feel bad for the hypothetical grandma who couldn't stay in her house when the tax bill increased, but what if grandma is paying next to nothing and sitting on a $2m house that could hold a whole family?

> "The original Macintosh up through System 7 was perhaps peak of OS UI design, the simplicity and obviousness is a marvel."

I first used System 7 after having used DOS, Windows 3.1, and Windows 95 and a bit of SunOS. With that background, I found System 7 and the silly hardware limitations to be anything but intuitive.

To this day I find it annoying to have to go all the way to to top of the monitor to get to a menu. Arguably that was less of a pain on the tiny screen of a Mac SE, but becomes real where than one app is open in a way that the windowed app feature is used in a meaningful way.

An example of silly hardware limitations includes substituting an eject button on the floppy drive for dragging it to the trash. The same action used to delete files or folders is used to regain possession of my precious files.

The single button on a mouse to make it simple sounds nice, but then there are modifiers using command - giving the same functionality a windows user would expect from a right click.

I was vegetarian for about a decade and during that time my cholesterol was too low such that my doctor recommended "nuts, beer, wine, and hard liquor" as a way to boost my LDL. I saved the voicemail he left and it was a running joke that I had a prescription for the bar. The moment I started eating meat again my levels went back up.

My doctor has always said I was overweight but in the last couple years I added an extra 30lbs due lack of routine exercise. This summer I started doing intermittent fasting from 9pm-noon and quickly lost the extra 30lbs of weight but I seemed to have plateaued and haven't lost anymore. I'm 6'5" and my ideal weight is 190lbs, I have always hovered around 200.
I'd imagine it's very unfair for people who bought in 2006 vs 2008 vs 2010. One time, I asked an older coworker about this, and he told me that getting a reassessment was popular for those who purchased in the bubble after it popped.

Well, I hate to break it to you, but your desire not to see human desperation and to remove the things that make it apparent, does not make it go away.

People do these jobs because there's a market for the items in question, and because they're poor. Taking away a deposit (which helps lubricate the return process of useful materials and gives people a reason to value them) for your conscience sake will not make the poverty go away.

Clearly people do throw away cans and bottles when it's not convenient, and these people who clearly don't have better opportunities in front of them, get some minimal (though unfortunate) employment which they choose to do.

Go work to eliminate poverty. Not the outward indicators of it.

I have been on IF for almost three years and started recently on 36 hours once every three weeks. If you can do 24, 36 is not too much of a problem. My last 12 hours of the 36 hours is sleeping, so I don't think about food or feel hungry when I am sleeping. Also, I ended up doing it for 38-40 even though my intention was to do it for 36 hours because of my sleep.
That.. doesn’t actually functionally change a whole lot? Though I can see how it would be super cool at the time.

I don't know much about the situation, and do not mean to assert any facts here, only a different interpretation of the grandparent from the one I think you had.

I think mc32 (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21889186) was suggesting that the money is funneled to the people allegedly solving homelessness, not to the homeless themselves, and that those solvers have the perverse incentive that they are more interested in the continuing revenue stream than in actually solving the problem. Of course comparisons to the military-industrial complex are hyperbole: such expenditures will fall far short of those spent on defence, as all expenditures in the US do.
This is awesome. Better execution than most web based tools I've seen to do similar. I'm fascinated by Escher's migrating tessellations of recognizable figures[0]. It would be nice to fork this and be able to draw a pair (or more) of figures then use a gradient to base a blending mask to sum them.

Some Netflix trivia: my residential internet connection can't stream Netflix as of yesterday. I get M7111-5059 which is "[y]ou seem to be using an unblocker or proxy" despite using neither VPN nor HTTP proxy.

I don't have malware on my PC, everything else is an iDevice, the trickiest thing I do is use Google Public DNS [0].

Alas their help page [1] says to contact my ISP. Who have helpfully confirmed they aren't doing a VPN on my behalf! Contacting Netflix results in them asking me if I am using "automatic" network settings and to ... contact my ISP. "We’re confident that your ISP can get you back to streaming."

My best theory is they've blocked a range of IPs belonging to my ISP because something in that range is helping users evade Netflix's geoblocking.

If anybody knows more about how Netflix's great firewall works I am all ears...

EDIT: Yes I have tried changing my IP by disconnecting the modem but it seems it's a static assignment. Next port of call is to ask the ISP. Or better yet, Netflix might unblock me!

[0] Cloudflare DNS makes no difference, and my ISP's DNS makes no difference.

Same. I don't like too much cable TV content, but it is nice that it's all bundled into a single service. I might enjoy one show on Discovery and one on NatGeo, but I'd never sign up for their channels individually.
With ADS-B the broadcast packet contains whatever it contains (a consumer cannot request different “endpoints”). By different view I was thinking of how an internet based solution could have endpoints with many options and pull too instead of only push.

I grew up in Connecticut where we always had redemption value on cans/bottles and so on. The rule was if you sold it you had to take it back. Taking back the cans and bottles was normal for me as a kid, it was how I got change for the vending machines in front of the store.

In CA (in the Bay Area) I am charged redemption value on cans and bottles. I put them in recycling, and guess what, the same truck that picks up my garbage also picks up my recycling... it is all going in the trash.

Recycling is broken, and we need to make more changes to make it effective.

Agreed, it pushes the purchaser to bring it back and also ensure the materials are triaged properly. If they don't, then someone else can collect the refund.

If it was me I'd put the deposit to 10¢. More people would actually return them, and those who depends on it to make the ends meet wouldn't need to gather as much to make the same amount.

> whether intermittent fasting will work for you is really easy to test

This is only true for people who have something they want to change. In practice that basically means weight or a biomarker that’s practical to measure, like fasting blood glucose. For people with normal weight and insulin response, the possible IF benefits seen in mice are difficult or impossible to measure. For example, identifying autophagy in a standard CBC with diff is experimental at best (https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/08a3/bf79055d69da0fe7305255...).
> Thats an odd thing to say. Websites don't need to allow free access either. I can't comment on any particular revenue model but I imagine many websites chose personalized ads as they provide better revenue returns than non-personalized ads.

Another way to get revenue, which doesn't itself transgress against these privacy-focused laws, is to charge directly for providing your service. That's totally legal! Well, but maybe some companies would find that they don't get enough subscribers to fund their business—then the solution, in a privacy-focused environment, is that those business don't exist, rather than that they get a shadow source of funding by accepting bribes for participating in scummy privacy violations. This would be a very different environment from the one in which we live—clearly better in some ways and clearly worse in others—but it's far from impossible.

Graphs of the FDR data from the (preliminary) accident reports. The Ethiopian authorities even annotated theirs with things like "automatic trim command with no change in pitch trim". You can see quite plainly the stabilizer was not moving as intended.

2. try to use the hand cranks to trim to normal

Per Boeing's documentation this should've worked. Unfortunately Boeing's documentation is mostly wishful thinking. Boeing's also suggested that a pilot try unloading the stabilizer with a roller coaster type maneuver. Unfortunately Boeing removed detailed instructions on this maneuver decades ago and the FAA's already demonstrated that with the altitude that the Ethiopian crew had, unloading the stabilizer would've just flown the plane into the ground.

There's a reason Boeing's largely backed off of the whole pilot error nonsense: the 737 MAX crashed due to shitty design not pilot error.
