Hey - Svelte Calendar actually has an open PR for a date-range picker which just needs a bit of testing to get it over the line. Feel free to take a look

https://github.com/6eDesign/svelte-calendar

As for the other components, as the ecosystem grows, these things start to appear. The advantage to Svelte is that it's super-easy to integrate any vanilla component into, much more so than other frameworks. You can totally do away with nonsense wrapping projects, and just add the component verbatim.
> For example, a single-axis autopilot just levels the wings. Some will hold a heading.

If you set an autopilot to hold a heading, it will hold a heading. You don't have to supervise it, you can concentrate on other stuff.

If you set a tesla autopilot to keep in a lane, you have to supervise it because it might fail to do so.

Granted, the latter problem is a harder one. But the point of an autopilot is that it manages to do want it promises to do on its own without constant supervision.
I think, I just completly useless when it comes to empathy. I was like that in 18, 25 and as you can see now at 33.

Another thong is that there is broader context to what I wrote. My context was that I found it ironic how suffering of thousands improves something for other thousands so obviously plus for some other it moves the cause hence the quote seemed appropriate to express that irony.

Sorry if I hurt anybody, I didn't mean to.

I agree. And yet there are swarms of people complaining the media attention is alarmist or that this is no big deal.

Pretty sure public response so far, at least stateside.
This is incredibly ambitious: every subheading on the landing page, such as form validation & handling, routing, service logic, is enough to have many big libraries already working on the problem. Yet here's this thing that says here it's all wrapped up in one solution. Historically, Vue has more than demonstrated that well opinionated whole solutions can be very popular on the frontend too so it's interesting to follow where Redwood will end up.
Additionally, the US health care system is worse, people are not or under-insured (so they have an incentive to avoid seeking care), and leading US politicians are acting like it isn't really happening.
That is an argument for the idea of copyright itself. It's not an argument in favor of the current system and it also proves no justification to expand the current system.
There is a nuclear power plant in Loviisa, some 50 miles east from Helsinki (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loviisa_Nuclear_Power_Plant), so this option is within possibilities and has been evaluated.

However the two existing units in Loviisa will reach the end of their 50-year lifetime by 2030, so using them would depend on getting a lifetime extension (uncertain) or building a new reactor (very slow, as shown by the delays with the Olkiluoto unit 3 mentioned in another comment above).
HP's hardware operation
If the solution program is sufficiently complex (as one would imagine it to be in non-trivial cases where we use AI, e.g. computer vision, speech synthesis, etc.), what makes you think the solution program is going to be more lightweight than running inference on an "AI model"? Futhermore, what guarantee do you have that the discovered solution is going to be efficient w.r.t. computation at all?

When BMW designed the i3 about 10 years ago, one couldn't make a 3 class sedan with > 560 km at a reasonable price. So instead they took their low fuel consumption city car concept with a futuristic look and made it electric. They never planned to sell it a lot, it's a carbon fiber body on an aluminium frame with a rear-wheel engine block. It's not designed to be mass produced at a cheap cost, it's designed to make money from low numbers as a premium EV.

They should have made more electric models since, but their different CEOs that succeeded were only looking at the current numbers. Hopefully for them, they will catch up.

Many people dislike the look of the i3 but that's just a matter of tastes. Personally I think the tesla model S and model 3 are very boring looking cars. They look okay, but I much prefer the i3.

In current cars models, The Renault Zoé looks very normal, the Volswagen Golf is a Golf, the Peugeot 208 looks exactly the same as a BEV or ICE, the Jaguar I-Pace looks like a ICE car too, the Audi Etron cannot look more normal, same for the Mercedes EQC.
They've added an eventListener that intercepts left clicks on anchor tags so they can add a fadeout, but they don't account for modifier keys (CMD/CTRL) changing the default behaviour. The context menu ignores this.
> Chesterton's Fence only applies to removing existing fences, so it obviously only applies to fences that already exist. It doesn't say anything about whether or not you should build the fence in the first place.

I'm also really having trouble understanding why it's so complicated for you to understand. Chesterton's fence says you shouldn't remove a fence until you understand why it's there. Ergo the removal of a fence requires effort. Ergo you should not put up fences unless provide actual value, because they will require effort to remove later.

Regardless, Chesterton's fence is a principle with whatever wisdom one chooses to draw from it. I guess if you disagree with me it doesn't really matter.
I understand why you blocked that comment however FWIW it's a fair criticism of the German national identity. I say this as a German national myself.
Yeah, but the Model 3 is still expensive! Most people can't afford to spend £40k on a car.
> "Shoppers enter the store with a credit card, grab what they want and just walk out - it's that easy."

I suspect it's still going to be slightly more involved than that. At the very least, they need to know your credit card, so there's still going to be some checkout, even if not every product has to be scanned manually.

I think your post summarizes a major reason why so many people ended up using small frameworks and appreciating glue code after using Rails/Django.

My noob a-ha example is `rails generate devise:install` where I first thought, wow, what a time saver. Eventually I learned lessons like, perhaps authentication is too important to be hiding from your source code. In fact, maybe almost everything is.
That is a good point, I am still skeptical that he should be handing out advice though. I would also disagree that the media has no incentive to overstate the situation. The Italian PM has specifically asked them to tone down their reporting as it was causing panic.

Instagram users twerk on live vs. Facebook
Curious if you're aware that mobile web usage dropped from 14% to 8% from 2014 to 2016[0]? And that according to Alex Russell[1], Google's internal telemetry has it well below 7% now. It seems to me that the opposite is true, that the irrelevance of the web on mobile will keep the web app versus mobile app division around essentially forever (web apps will be popular on desktop, and native apps on mobile). (Unless I was misunderstanding and you were saying, what's the difference? E.g., Facebook is Facebook, whether it's a web app or a native app.)

I can understand developing, but why producing electric cars would be a lot more expensive than ICE cars? Not an expert, but in my opinion in electric cars you can get rid of many components, such as complicated engine, transmission, fuel injection systems, exhaust, etc. This should bring the cost down, with battery being the single most expensive component

Ask HN: Is anyone recording streaming School classes (increase due to Covid-19)?
Hi there,

I've noticed a large number of Universities/Schools streaming lessons due to the Coronavirus epidemic.

This information is often timeless and extremely valuable.

I'm not entirely sure under which license some of these institutions release their material, but I'm certain schools (e.g. in Italy) wouldn't mind their material being recorded and archived.
JSON is also missing an integer type.

Read the spec. Basically all it says is that the numeric type is a float, but doesn't say anything about its precision.

I'm amazed that there haven't been any security vulnerabilities found yet that takes advantage of different number formats in different JSON implementations.

You'd think that a data serialisation format should get at least numbers right. All the ones that came before (and after) did, yet we're still stuck with JSON.
> In Rust it's also possible to copy values as a way to silence borrow checking errors, but this does add visual noise as copies have to be explicitly specified.

This statement isn't quite accurate. Types that can be safely duplicated by memcopy generally implement the Copy trait, which allows the compiler to do the same kind of silent copying that the author describes for Swift.

Cloning, on the other hand, must be explicitly specified; the difference here is that it may involve some amount of computation to make the logical copy in addition to simply copying the bytes.
If I recall, Netscape or one of the other early browsers used to have an option to change the default font/color of text and the background in its settings. Nowadays you have to use an extension to do so.
Thanks!

We'll definitely support Typescript, we're almost there and will make the experience feel amazing.

We just have to be careful with the information we use and the conclusions we draw from them.

From all we know, the mortality correlates with age. Only few deads younger than 50 were reported and we don't know what other diseases they suffered from.

I personally wouldn't use TV as a source of information in this regard but that's a personal preference.
The Perl6 (now Raku) language implementors use that phrase a lot as well. I wonder where it originated.
Stories of hospitals being overwhelmed in Italy are all over the internet if you look. AFAIK it's pretty well-established that's what happened in Wuhan too. This is why extraordinary measures to control the spread of infection are being put in place
Awesome! Thank you for the support :)
The battery yes. Also, an electric motor is simple mechanically, but it is more complex than it looks on the outside. There's a lot going on in their design, and the manufacturing process is complex as well, especially if you need it to be efficient.

ICE engines have larger complex elements that can fail for more reasons, but the most complex part is just this big block that they pour into a mold. After that's done you just have to mount all the little components onto it that the suppliers have refined the tolerances on for at least 20 years.

But the ICE and the electric engine are just peanuts compared to the material cost of producing these huge batteries.

A properly worn face mask, maybe. But it's good only for 20-30 minutes, then it's soaked from the moisture in your breath and no longer does its job.

Story of my life. In my opinion the best tool for basically all jobs is usually the main programming language of your project / team / company. Everyone can read it, change it and run it. It can do everything. It has the best tooling support. The best IDE, which everyone has installed, licensed and knows how to operate. It is hopefully compile- and type safe. It is hopefully under source control. And hopefully a mainstream language, so you can find tons of help and resources online.

But for some reason, every f* new task is always first solved with some interpreted weakly typed scripting language, shell script or batch file, config file, xml programming, open source tool or web service. Unversioned, and with the weakest tool and team support imaginable. Probably a separate git repository with separate login credentials is created somewhere along the way as well.

It's of course different when people are making statements about their own nation, or a place that they lived for a long time. But these distinctions are too subtle to matter on the internet. Others will react the same way they do to garden-variety flamebait, so the effects on the site are the same, so it's best to just not go there.

Also, while different, it's not necessarily benign—just more complicated.

Criticisms of national identity can't be topics of curious conversation on the public internet. A small, closed group could, but a large open group can't. 'Large' implies that someone is going to get activated, and 'open' implies that they can show up and comment—at which point game over.

JIRA admin user) and shared them with the "IT" team in BitWarden; this allows all of the IT admins to get into JIRA if necessary.
