Agreed. Moreover, the physical size of the device will grow exponentially with problem size, so manufacturing will be impractical. The device is small only for simple instances of the SSP. But for those instances you could simulate the device in a few lines of code on a classical computer :)

In fact, this device is based on earlier work on a biological computer [1] which suffers from the same drawbacks [2].

That said, a ham radio license can actually help legally with some listening.

Some US states have laws against having and/or using a scanner to monitor police or emergency services frequencies while driving. For example, in New York you cannot equip a motor vehicle with a receiver that can receive frequencies allocated for police use. There are similar laws in Florida, Indiana, Kentucky, and Minnesota.

The FCC, however, has ruled that Federal law preempts state laws in this area in the case of a licensed ham radio operator using a radio that can incidentally receive frequencies outside of the ham bands.

For example, I have a Kenwood TH-F6A [1], a handheld transceiver for the 144/220/440 MHz ham bands. In addition to those ham bands, it can also receive on 0.1 - 1300 MHz (minus some bands in there assigned to cell phones). Since I have an Extra class ham radio license, I can go ahead and listen to police frequencies that fall in that range even in my car in those five states.

That's the first thing that came to my mind as well. RIP Wave?
Out of curiosity, was this with 5meo?
As we lose obsolete skills, we simultaneously become more interdependent on other humans, as the web of dependencies becomes more complex. More people need to coordinate action to complete even basic tasks.

With that in mind, preserving communications would seem to be near the top of the list (perhaps just below clean water?) when things go wrong. Radio seems like a good backup -- perhaps even ideal.

So I don't think we should compare radio to just any obsolete tech out there.
This is a soapbox that I really enjoy standing on. I think there is a large number of game developers who have forgotten that the point of a game is to be fun.

> The root of the cause is they aren't redistributing the wealth well. They should offer the poor, an affordable medical care, a shelter, and just simply hand them the money.

Except you have to get them to care about more than getting high, first. The one man in the article who lost his family started with an addiction to pain killers and progressed downward to heroin and homelessness.

His problem wasn't a lack of the material, it was a lack of meaning. "Handing them the money" reinforces meaninglessness. It won't work.

Throughout history there have been poor people who were virtuous. I grew up poor, and poverty didn't make us turn to stealing. Yes, we actually had too little food. My mother often went hungry as she made sure her children were fed.

There are millions of the poor all over the world, and only a few of them are criminals. Most are good people. The only possible conclusion to draw from this fact is that crime is not caused by poverty, otherwise all or most of the world's poor would be criminals.

It turns out that handing out needles just makes it easier to do hard drugs. Turning a blind eye to crime leads to more crime, it normalizes it.

Getting these people medical care would be a beginning. Ask them to meet some standards. Food if you avoid drugs. Shelter if you help care for it, and avoid drugs. A clean place to bathe and groom yourself, if you help clean it. A shot at getting a job by keeping yourself clean in several senses. Setting the conditions begins providing meaning. Helping others and caring for one's surroundings provides meaning and dignity. That, more than anything, is the strong foundation from which to attack addiction.

stability actually means. Furthermore I don't see that in practice. To be able to say you're stable you have to have a spec and stick to it over a number of years. Is there one? Unit tests in rustc don't count because contributors just regularly delete or change those. I still see statements coming out from other contributors describing regular regressions and breakages to the core language happening even in the last few months:

Disclosure, I don't work on Rust or any other language, I just keep an eye on it out of interest. I give it another few years before these big regressions stop happening. Please keep at it and don't take any of my statements as being discouraging.

>superheroes are creatures/concepts as old as stories though, from the oldest myths of Ulysse

Ancient/Mythical "heroes" are not like our modern superheroes which are kind of a mix of gods/demigods and christian saints. Superheroes are people with superpowers plus a drive of serving justice, helping the weak, protecting mankind, etc. Plus always ready to sacrifice themselves for others.
Classical heroes range from purely self-motivated (Ulysses), selfish and self-serving (Achiles) to literal assholes (Gilgamesh). Achiles values are very similar of former-gangster rap stars (or at least the characters they built of themselves). Fighting is most important. Only fights for himself and his glory. Top dog of his culture. Has a particular sense of fairness in regard to his own selfishness.

Hey guys, I did a simple analysis of how and what the HN community pays attention to with regards to sustainability and climate-related issues.

Any comments or constructive feedback pertaining to the categories or observations made would be great!
Suggestions to broaden or narrow scope of analysis would be welcome too!

Side note: I chose not to display the counts for “Number of Users Engaged” as it was kind of redundant since most of the posts selected to illustrate these categories typically have counts close to the number of comments, off by 1 or so. Still, all posts mentioned in the slides to illustrate the categories have been verified beforehand and meet the requirements as stated in the criteria slide. Cheers!

How much stuff they can buy and how big their house is is a big part of what the average person on the street considers to be relevant metrics of prosperity. I wouldn’t trade an extra 6 months of life expectancy like in the UK for a house half the size like in the UK, and I suspect most other Americans wouldn’t either.

As to your other indicators, are you really talking about the “average person” or the poorest people? Because there is a big difference, and in the US we have deliberately chosen to optimize for lower taxes on the middle class at the expense of weaker safety nets for the lowest class. Take, for example, income mobility. For the top 80% it’s similar between the US and Denmark: https://archive.nytimes.com/www.nytimes.com/interactive/2012.... Someone born in the second to lowest quantile, for example, has a similar shot at rising to the top quantile in the US and Denmark.

As to health indicators it’s similar, although also complicated by demographic and diet differences. Asian Americans have the longest life expectancy of pretty much anyone in the world, including people in Hong Kong, Singapore, or Japan. It’s not because there is an alternate, Asian only health system. It’s because Asian Americans are largely outside the bottom quantile, and a lot of the things that drag down the US in the overall average are a function of very bad results in the bottom quantile.

Don't get me wrong, I understand there were lots of crap games from back in the day and there's good games being made now, I was just saying that I don't think nostalgia glasses are necessary to enjoy quality games from the past because despite a rough appearance and obtuseness the core mechanics behind those good games are just as solid as they were then and a vast majority of high budget titles being made now tend fall on the side of shallow money vaccuums....not that those never used to exist, but the lack of effort in providing an engaging, challenging experience is pretty noticeable as a trend.
This is not true at all, modern component based projects like https://element.eleme.io/ work perfectly find in mobile and you only load the CSS/HTML/JS per component so it doesnt need to load tons of JS just to render simple form or UI components from Vue or React.

Landlords need to compete for tenants. High rents are only tenable in hot employment markets with bad policies imposing shortages. Everywhere else, high rents lead to more construction which leads to lower rents, and the landlord who refuses the going rate sees his units go empty.
A student from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign wrote a paper on transparent pointer compression in their custom GCC backend back in 2005: https://llvm.org/pubs/2005-06-12-MSP-PointerComp.pdf.

Are you sure? I am not seeing the same behavior.
"As for The Wall Street Journal’s claim that I’m refusing to let go of control of Bridgewater, I can assure you that that is not true and that if it was true, I’d tell you it was true."

He claims their piece is full of factual errors but never addressed a single one in his LinkedIn post, and never provided any kind of evidence or arguments to support any of his other hyperbolic claims of systemic problems in journalism of the WSJ. Then he does something that is common in people who are actively dishonest: the old "Trust me, I'd tell you the truth." statement. Generally people who are honest are eager to present logical arguments backed by facts that can be verified. They don't need to ask for trust because trust isn't required to form independent conclusions based on evidence.

His LinkedIn post, after I read it, makes me believe the WSJ article more, not less.

I think one issue is modern AI design. Their chance of hitting you goes down with distance and cover. Speed and surprise might be given some consideration, but you are almost always safest peaking around cover and clicking on enemy heads.

I'm not sure if the original Ghost Recon was actually this advanced, but it felt like enemies got more accurate as they got more evidence of your position. You could find a good sniping spot and take out a couple enemies as they fired in your general direction, but the next enemy that came over the ridge (after hearing your shots) would immediately kill you with their first shot. The solution was to use the rest of your squad. Once you got a couple kills on your sniper, you'd hide completely and switch to an assault in another position. The enemy would run over the ridge, but they'd only have improved accuracy against the sniper. That made them an easy fight for the assault.

Translated into the position graphs in the gamesutra link, there was a penalty for fighting from the same node for too long. This results in an inherent incentive to capture new territory and turns the "safe" hallway into a deathtrap.
I would have prioritized defecation in the water supply over noise pollution but maybe that’s just me.
Yes and it's worse than that because it's kindergarten collective punishment. It doesn't consider an increase in property damage and deaths from people afraid to honk or who's vehicle owners will remove their horns, thinking it will lead to increased productivity. Instead, the police need to be less corrupt and enforce a ban on aggressive honking, and correct behavior to use the horn only in emergencies. It seems like another bureaucratic, half-assed, lazy, counterproductive panacea rather than fixing policing.

Yep. "Tragedy of the commons" specifically refers to when the individuals incentives are different from the collectives incentives.

One good piece of advice from Abercrombie is that only liars say "trust me". That would never occur to anyone who's really being honest.
The people dismissing the article are right, but for the wrong reasons. This result would be interesting, but they only studied two people, and here's the important part:

BOTH OF THE PEOPLE THEY STUDIED WERE BORN WITHOUT ANY ARMS. THAT'S A CONFOUNDER THE SIZE OF JUPITER.

They really need to look at people that have functioning arms, but choose to paint with their feet to see if this result still holds (but maybe with a smaller effect size). Someone that doesn't have arms can very plausibly develop maps that have nothing to do with painting. These guys have been using their feet as hands for their entire life. Is painting with your feet a couple hours each week enough to develop new maps (indicating that these mappings are very malleable), or do you have to go whole hog and stop using your arms entirely for these differences to be noticeable (indicating that the mappings are not as malleable).

That's basically questions a) and b) that you listed, but they are so fundamental that the study is sort of worthless without them. The remaining follow on questions can wait until we determine if this even generalizes to people with arms (which make up the vast majority of the human population). Because right now, we found out that a creative person with no arms has a brain that fires differently, and that's not really worth the cost of the electricity it took to do the study.
Ammonia is great. It is also useful directly by farmers, both for fuel and fertilizer.

There have been major advances recently in small-scale (single-turbine) production of ammonia from just current, water, and air. It seems like a much better choice than hydrogen for everything except the next generation of aircraft.

Aircraft need high energy per unit mass fuel, and hydrogen is king, but tankage is huge, so hydrogen airliners would need to be lifting bodies to have room for the fuel tanks.

You have a point. Perhaps it's Google users' fault as much as anyone else's, to form such trusting emotional bonds to the Google service in the first place. However:

1. Google doesn't do anything to educate their users about this reality.
2. If corporations like Google really wanted to do "the best we can currently do", they'd try harder but instead they just do "the best we need to do to make billions of dollars from collecting people's data."

Case in point, turns out Yandex image search is better than Google's. Google won't try harder if no one knows there's something better.

5G New Radio (the 5G physical layer) adds a couple of high frequency, low range bands to the game.

But low-frequency, high-range bands are available with 5G, too. It's a matter of policy and deployment strategy if you use these bands for 4G, 5G wide area coverage.

Some countries will continue having 2G on these Higher range bands. Others will re-use the bands for 5G.

So far, it's about public networks. You can use network technologies like 5G to roll your own network, too. The vendors market turn-key solutions for emergency services, e.g. a basestation on top of the firefighters truck.
I saw first hand how the "truth" was manipulated by tech jounralists to create a narrative that they wanted. They included certain things, and omitted others, to make sure that the overarching story they wanted to tell was consistent with their world view. They were searching for the truth, they were trying to make a name for themselves, and then leveraging that for a book deal.

Bridgewater is famous for valuing a culture of almost brutal honesty and fierce internecine warring over ideas. It argues this combination is vital to reaching the deep understanding that is critical to the success of its investments. While Bridgewater has experimented with leadership transitions multiple times, changing directions and reversing course seems consistent and faithful to its internal DNA. Life doesn't always go in neat straight lines. Forcing a simple story line isn't always best.
