No, most solar panels do not contain cadmium, and cadmium is not used as a dopant in any kind of semiconductor. Cadmium telluride is a semiconductor, and there are some thin-film solar panels that use it, but the market is dominated by silicon solar panels, which do not contain any cadmium. (CdTe is the most popular thin-film type, though.) Recycling CdTe is enormously easier than mining cadmium and tellurium from ore, so it won't be a problem. If I were doing it, I'd be more worried about the tellurium than the cadmium — that shit stinks in a way that gives new layers of meaning to the word "stench". Finally, "cadmium" is not a brand name; it is a chemical element and thus does not need to be capitalized. This isn't German.

> Excretion is mainly renal although small amounts of tellurium are exhaled as dimethyl telluride which has a distinctive garlic odour which may persist for many days; Reisert (1884) reported garlic breath odour for 237 days following ingestion of 15 mg tellurium oxide.

In short, you have managed to pack so many errors into under 20 words that it required an entire paragraph to explain most of them. Your epistemology is bad and you should feel bad.
Provide an API for public data to reduce the costs associated with rendering a full blown page, and deliver just the information needed.
If you're worried about the collision, I'd suggest petitioning the machine learning people to stop using the acronym. ML the programming language had been around for decades before it was common to use ML to mean "machine learning."
I wonder if his recent uptick in posts that seem a little less substantive means he is going to announce something new soon.
Look at your most used apps - none of them are "responsive pages". That should tell you something. Folks who have tried responsive pages haven't done that well.

I am curious - what is the most popular responsive webpage on iphone would people say? I'd like to check out the current leader in this space.
Yes - it will stream logs from all pods managed by the workload you're currently viewing (e.g. a Deployment, ReplicaSet, Daemonset)
Ask HN: Have you ever quit because a code base was incomprehensible?
Which insulins? Not all insulins are equal or cost the same to produce.
Wayland doesn't have a chance anyhow because

* Very few actually interesting programs run natively on it
* As such the push to improve is largely political
* Leading to low effort commitment outside the orgs that push it
* Which deters developers for actually porting stuff to it

As such you end up with half baked PoCs that doesn't incentivize anybody to move them forward while X is still working better by far.

In short, there is no compelling reason for anybody to switch platforms. It's a solution looking for a problem.
So you like to pay for specs?
Of course it's legal. I don't know how you can make the argument that, if you have a public-facing website, you can arbitrarily make rules concerning exactly how that website is viewed.
OK it does look like he commuted an actual crime (perjury/false affidavit).

But more broadly: how is humanity helped by not spreading around the knowledge of basic science and the interconnection between scientists? This is all relating to work that will be published in journals after all.

That is probably more concerning, although ProtonMail is not something I typically see outside of the HN crowd and similar. I met only one total stranger who gave me a ProtonMail email address.

This provides what to me is compelling evidence that the efficacy requirement by the FDA is wasteful.
This whole cost plus percentage model doesn’t work — it encourages people to drive up costs to increase profit.

I see no reason that pharma manufacturing can’t be done just regular contract manufacturing. The Zika vaccine is a prime example. The US developed the ZIPV vaccine at public expense, and then, for some mind boggling reason, they offered an exclusive license to Sanofi. Imagine if Apple outsourced iPhone manufacturing by giving Foxconn and exclusive license! The US could have solicited bids to manufacture the vaccine and accepted more than one, thus resulting in multiple sources without any IP exclusivity.
Compared to people whose full-time job is to analyze tech companies for whether they are good investments, I think most tech people know relatively little.

I could certainly pick out which tech companies are likely to succeed better than my grandma, but I'm not competing against her, I'm competing against professionals, and I simply don't have enough time to match someone who spends their entire day on it.
Are all evils caused by insufficient knowledge?
Pretty cool, how does it compare to the Rust pendant https://crates.meilisearch.com/
This is a bad analogy as scraped but copyrighted works are still protected by copyright. Whats in question is whether you should have exclusive rights to information you have shared but did not copyright. Seems people also think this noncopyrighted data should also be protected even if its munged and added to an original work by the scraper.
That is really annoying, but I bet it's not spotify per-se, but the music's copyright owners wishes.

Mr. Money Mustache, an early Financial Independence blogger, quit working after having invested enough to mostly live off the expected 4% returns of his investment portfolio. Granted, I don't think there's any evidence at all that he is lazy, but he certainly doesn't project the image of a high-powered workaholic business executive.

A few years after retiring, his personal finance blog has at times made an income in the mid-six figures, assuming he was telling the truth in a forum comment somewhere.

I've read stories of early retirees saying that they've made more money than ever after retiring, because the independence freed them from the downside of risky business decisions.
That's why we (the Dutch) have pharmacies that take the prescription of the doctor and then determine, based on your current medicine and medical history, alter your new prescription to fit your need (and he will confer with the GP if needed)
I find that it works quite well. This is definitely more of a "rant" than anything else of a user that doesn't like where things are going.
But, Apple is going above and beyond to coerce users into needlessly updating. I was actually forced to update my iPad because I forgot my pin[1].

Everything Apple has done has had the effect of slowly bricking your iPad, bit by bit.

And these so called "upgrades" have only had the effect of removing features and slowing my device, and generally degrading the UX. This is not ok.

I never actually purchased my iPad, it was given to me to develop medical software. And even though it was used in a closed offline environment, this forced update still broke things and set back our development. I also know a teacher who was forced to shelve her lessons after she was tricked into updating her iPad 4 to iOS 11, which had so much latency when typing that it was rendered virtually useless.

I may be one of the few people using Apple Music on Android, but unfortunately that app is incredibly buggy too. If you're connected to WiFi but not connected to the internet, it takes 60 seconds after you hit play for a song to actually start. Presumably there's some network call that takes 60 seconds to timeout, but it's really frustrating to make the UI nonresponsive in the meantime.
Looks really cool.

I have played around with lucene a lot and it seems typesense is a very close match to the feature set. - Apart from the REST interface on top.

Was the decision to not use the mature lucene platform technical?
The memory and hardware requirements of lucene are quite small, even if Elastic or Solr leave a very different impression.

Glad to see a solution positioning itself a bit leaner than Solr/Elastic though, they really are a bit heavy for many occasions.
Another good reason to keep wifi off unless you really need it.
So, you would rather see the developing countries never developed, forever in poverty? Or what are you proposing?

Specific suggestion: get rid of efficacy requirement, keep safety requirement. Let doctors decide what works, as they currently do for off-label uses just fine.

What Is Real vs. What Is True
The title is misleading due to ambiguity. It is not clear that "standard" is a common noun or part of a proper name within the title. IMO this violates HN guidelines. Abbreviation is only appropriate when the context is understood. Expanding the abbreviation might not be acceptable, but clarifying that Standard ML is a programming language would prevent this title from being misleading.
ASK HN: DB Architecture-which database is best for single key search
I have a very simple database, which consists of two tables:

TabA , idA binary(32) Primarykey NOT NULL
TabB, idB binary(32) Primarykey NOT NULL

Only two simple activities are performing on these tables and they are independent.

Inserting new id to idA in TabA.
Searching TabB idB column for a given value, if not exists insert the given value.

The two tables could grow into billions of records. The data can’t be housekept. Currently the database is in a relational database MS SQL.

Based on the very simple query and flat schema, which type of databases could provide best performance? Search engine? In memory KV? Mapreduce? Thanks in advance!
There's a "outside the overton window" description (and similar descriptions) I hear folks talk about when it comes to the value of internet un-moderated discussions and .... honestly I've found it mostly to be poorly thought out at best, often painfully ignorant as far as the motivations go.

There seems to be some folks who talk about really valuing novel ideas and how they can't show up on moderated discussions but I just see a lot of noise that might not be "overton window" but are mostly pithy garbage.

I find that anything mildly thought out usually fits inside even the heaviest of moderated type discussions.
>>The 68000 hardware could support preemptive multitasking just fine; what it lacked was a hardware MMU.

Yes, exactly. Thanks for clarifying. As you say, the lack of preemptive multitasking was mainly an OS limitation, although a hardware MMU would have really helped. I remember at the time reading about the hoops that Andy had to go through to get Switcher (which, as mentioned in other replies, became MultiFinder) to work. One of the issues was that the single app OS model used a bunch of low memory locations as system globals...on every context switch these had to be saved and restored because each running application could change them. (ouch!)
Dunno if it'll work perfectly, but if you have the music on your PC you may be able to use the VLC app for iOS [1]. I use it for streaming movies / tv / music on my NAS but I think it can do some sort of PC sync.

Author here; I agree that I'm not considering other users in my rants. I'm not a designer, and don't have solutions that would help everyone that Apple is targeting with this product.

Part of the reason I'm unhappy with the options forced on me is the removal of my ability to customize the tabs. If Apple wants to push Radio, that's fine. Do I have to suffer navigational difficulties, when previously I could replace that button with "Albums" or "Songs", etc.?

With regards to queuing, I don't mind the way it's modeled. I reorder songs all the time; it's very useful. The actual act of dragging the songs is not very graceful at times--I'll fly by the next song in the list, or not move at all past the top of the screen. Like I said, after playing with Spotify and noticing similar issues, I think it's a Swift/iOS issue, not an Apple Music problem.

Sure: the automated design-by-optimization of ship hull form geometry which meets constraints and is smooth according to some energy measures.

Build a functional to describe your ship problem, minimize it: if the solver is happy, you have a boat.... uh, or if you haven’t solved the entire problem, you have some geometry which can be stitched together with more optimization to make a boat.

More broadly, “why a boat?”
Answer: because boats have a lot of constraints, and a lot of shape ( Gaussian curvature, non rectangular topology, a need to be cheaply produced, etc etc)

So it’s a good problem to tax your generative design or design space search/optimization capability.
I found university more fulfilling than my 5+ years of full-time work, so I think your mileage may vary on this. Depending on what sort of activities you enjoy.
It may not be your intent, but you're using some very vague, inapplicable terminology to make some screwed up behavior sound normal.

If you can tell secrets to who you please and sell them on the internet, they aren't secrets. Somewhere in the middle of what you're saying, the secrets stopped being secrets, but you kept using the word as if it still applied.

Facebook isn't a group of associates trading anecdotes about their friends: the server guy has never met Mark Zuckerberg, and they are not "associates" in any meaningful way. They're not friends, or even really allies: Facebook certainly has shown inconsistent concern for the well-being of its workers. So let's also drop the "associates" terminology: these aren't "associates", they're employers and employees. Employees aren't acting as individual humans on their own behalf, they're acting on behalf of an organization.

Putting aside the rights conversation for a second, let me ask you a question: if you tell your friend a secret in confidence, and they turn around and sell it to anyone on the internet who will pay a low fee, that would be pretty screwed up, no? We don't even have to talk about rights here: this is just screwed up behavior, regardless of the rights conversation.
Ask HN: Why Apple Mail made it harder to move email to junk?
I remember few iOS versions before there was a "move to junk" button on the bottom bar of Apple Mail. I move marketing and spams to junk.

Usually Gmail is good at spams but not marketing/newsletter ones.

In recent versions, Apple Mail removed that button, and now I need to do few swipes and clips to accomplish that task. I don't like it but I am forced to often do it!

It just feels like Apple's helping these marketing people.
I do not prefer one or the other. Abbreviations without context are not suitable for HN titles.

I was considering making a blog post comparing the design of the "golden age" of iOS versus now. I see someone already beat me to that and am grateful for it.

Look at the screenshots in the previous versions compared to now. Design is down to personal preference (personally I think the earlier versions had more "rich" design and a personality, bits of which were lost with each upgrade) but you can't argue that we are losing functionality, despite screen sizes going up and having more than enough space to accommodate all the features.
That makes a lot of sense. And also explains why the the other funds aren't as 'stellar'. I mean all these quants are in the same company, how is one fund perfect, and the others lackluster.
The fact that Facebook themselves will never be able to replace their native iOS and Android apps with RN implementations says it all imo.
I love Monthy Python, and Life of Brian in particular, but there's not really evidence that proves that Jesus even existed. It's more likely a case of a myth that was made to be historical for political reasons.
> about a percent goes to the store's bank to cover the case when they have to give the money back (either because it was a fraudulent online transaction, or the store cheated the customer and the customer went to their card issuer, etc.)

Is this right? It's been my experience (in Canada) that losing a fraud case or chargeback the store takes the hit.
If I understood correctly, Tcl's metaprogramming capabilities are based on manipulating strings and not a syntax tree (e.g. lisp). Is that a key component of making it usable by "mere mortals"?

I think ideally I'd like both capabilities, which seems possible if you just expose the language's parser as a function.
Our software development company is working on an ongoing issue. In our experience, we find that virtual reality and augmented reality advancements are not happening within our state, New Jersey. Late last year, we set up the Virtual Reality Roadshow. It was our goal to help general consumers and small businesses become more familiar with the benefits of virtual reality technology. We shared our experience and our thoughts on VR in 2020 in a recent post: https://www.invonto.com/insights/virtual-reality-trends-2020...

In 2020, we plan to continue the VR Roadshow and brainstorm new ideas to bring more awareness to virtual reality tech.

I'm also reminded of the Oasia Downtown hotel in Singapore, which, like Park Royal, is designed by WOHA. It's a fairly recently completed skyscraper, and the plant scaffolding hasn't fully been overgrown yet: https://archello.com/project/oasia-hotel-downtown
Yeah, why aren't breathalyzers mandated in every vehicle? Even though we as a society pretty uniformly agree (from the people I've spoken with) that drunk driving is bad in every case, why don't we resort to such extreme measures?

Why don't we just strip prisoners naked and keep them in glass cages? We would certainly need fewer armed guards if that were the case.

Thank goodness we are not there yet.

I'm convinced that the reason so many oil and gas companies are on board with scaling up intermittent renewables is because it secures demand for natural gas for future.

None of my most used apps are responsive pages because Safari neuters the functionality.

- White Noise -> Safari can't play background sounds once closed.

- Messenger -> Notification trouble, not to mention Facebook won't let you use the mobile version of Messenger without a lot of effort.

- Google Maps -> Close, but a lot of the functionality, like reminders require notifications which isn't up-to-par with just Safari

- Teams -> See messenger.

Entirely feasible. Also reasonable for you to pay me for the service as it is taking my development efforts to meet your business model. The advantage to you is you have a defined interface that I won't prevent.

A longer love letter from antirez (Salvatore Sanfilippo) to TCL: http://antirez.com/articoli/tclmisunderstood.html
I don't know what that "in economics" condition is there for.
I expect there are plenty of economics professors doing very nicely in the stock market, but it tends to be mathematicians and physicists who found hedge funds.

Successful academics who have done that and made shedloads of money in the stock market would include, er, Jim Simons, founder of Renaissance Technologies, the very firm under discussion in this thread.

The thing that got acquired by Renaissance and turned into the Medallion Fund was called Axcom. That was founded by a guy called James Ax, who before he founded that was ... a mathematics professor at Cornell, Harvard, and Stony Brook.

Another key guy at Axcom was Elwyn Berlekamp. He was a mathematics professor at UC Berkeley.

So it doesn't seem like there's any incompatibility between being an academic and being very, very good at extracting money from the stock market.
