> Bringing up the rest of the information about the carbon cycle does not turn the previous true statement into a false statement.

I am pointing out how your framing is misleading to the point of being intentionally deceptive. It doesn't matter if it is 1% or 0.1% of the rest of the "producers". Our emissions are in excess; they overwhelm the balance of the carbon cycle and we 100% own the cumulative increase in CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere. You can't blame volcanoes or cow farts because the cycle has run just fine with them for millions of years.
Do you hate mornings? Here’s how I learned to love them
Why not find a really good employment lawyer, drop $5-10k (15,20, whatever) and get a good answer? It's nothing in the grand scheme.
In the UK here, I have heard the bed occupancy is low because people are afraid to go to the emergency room out of fear of catching COVID. So there are typically a number of people who die every month. Then you have the number who have died of COVID. But now they have a larger than expected people die of non-COVID. Question is do these extras die of COVID but not tested or the fear of COVID and not getting help.

As for Elon Musk, and most famous people, I treat there opinions with no more credibility than I do the grocer or the shoe shine. Just because some media person decides to repeat your words does not make it right.

Of course if I see it on Hacker News thats a different story ... Not that it is more accurate, but it will be better vetted. Others will chime in with counter opinion. Its not a one way street.

>Ask your representatives to make stronger labor laws.

Lawmakers don't do things when one person asks, they need significant public pressure. Publicly showing displeasure with how a company operates is usually the first step for that.
It kinda is though, if the network is trained on the source material itself. For example if I take the source material and move a few pixels, is that still the source material? What if I flip the video, which is technically moving every single pixel, that's still the a copyright issue even if the video is mirrored. The network is basically taking the pixels of the original content, learning from it, and creating a filtered version.
It’s what you write when you see the writing on the wall for the end of a superpower and you get to be right either way while you don’t do anything to fix it.
Sometimes this happens if the employee falsified information on their background check form to avoid being caught in the background check. Some companies run a quick high level background check but also have longer term processes for in depth checks.

I once had a similar situation happen at a very large (150k+ employees) company. Security showed up and escorted one of our contractors out the door. It turned out he had worked for the company previously and stolen documents that he used to try to extort money from the company. When he was being brought in for this contract position he had changed the spelling of his name on the form and used a social security number for someone with that spelling. During the quick background check everything looked good but the discrepancies were discovered during the more in depth check a couple months later.
The only successful ideas I've had didn't seem like particularly great business ideas and I only had a vague sense of what I was building before I started. All the "great business ideas" I've had failed miserably. Maybe just start building small projects and if there's one you can't stop thinking about, keep doing that one. Depending on your personality, passion/curiosity may trump quality of the initial idea.
"But do the media..."

Media is a plural noun. To use it incorrectly this way gives credence to conspiratorial thinking about the press.
There are 7.8 billion people in the world. If you can get 1% of them to pay you a penny once a year, you're making $780k/year. You can make $100k/year by getting $0.10/year from one person in every 7800. If you can get people to pay you $0.01/week, you can make $100k/year from less than 200,000 people.

But not if your $0.01 transaction has a $0.30 minimum transaction fee.
You are starting too late. In my experience 10 years old is when the all-knowing really kicks in. At least that is that age when each of my children gained omniscience. Apparently.
Lots and lots of people - we met at RedisConf and it's still a fond memory! Thanks for all your work!
Snap's 3 Pillars of AR, Part II: Adoption
This is not how any of this works. You don't write a privacy policy listing all the things you don't do; you write it listing and justifying the things that you do.
Cool, yea regulatory is one of those niche things that can require a custom solution for sure.

I personally like Ansible especially when going from manual to automated as you can incrementally add to it but get using it quickly. Overall Ansible is pretty simple and it is super flexible without adding unnecessary complications. You can have it run your tests and make sure they all are passing before it moves the new software as live.

Plenty of consultants are available and can set it up for you if you need it done fast or it really isn't hard to learn if you have a little time.
A crisis that demands a response
Well written.

Two excellent books are The Elements of Style and On Writing Well.
I'm not sure where you live but I don't need a truck roll to get a replacement it comes next day for equipment or I can go to the local office and get an exchanged. Additionally failure of the modem isn't the only thing to consider there's line issues etc... With the line terminating at their equipment there's no hassle of do you have compatible equipment, is it functioning properly etc... It's literally handled from them to the modem minus a small leg from the demark to the room it sits in. It's trivial to. Plug directly in to the demark and show that and errors/issues are on them and they fix it promptly with no finger pointing.
Go to a company that does background checks and pay for the FBI background check. Know instead of guessing

Also make sure you’re not committing another crime by failing to disclose your conviction.

If your employer touches certain types of personal information they may be required report attempts to circumvent disclosure.
Great question!

I believe this is a good problem to have, and perhaps one day I'll be lucky enough to face this.

I've spent some time thinking of how to monetize Pantry - perhaps a private tier, something that is more feature-rich?
Have the lawyers been paid?
I skimmed the paper. Figures 3, 4, 5, and 6 from the paper you linked seem to show that higher degrees correlate with higher net worth. Could you elaborate on what I am missing?
This is why people need to start rejecting closed ecosystems. If you own the hardware you can control everything that happens on it including companies trying to force their will upon you

This collection was published on April 16th, but does not seem to have been updated since then. Does anyone know why?
Great question!

Currently, the PantryID (uuidv4) is the only form of security, I am thinking that in a future release perhaps another form of authorization may be required.

Do you have any suggestions - I'm all ears!
This is a 15 year experiment signed by gw jr. and cheerleaded by biden. It is debt slavery to turn college kids into conservatives. On the other eND of the spectrum was no child left behind to makes kids dumber and conservative. Trump is a direct result.
Yeah during my eight years, hazing was mostly phased out by then. Some traditions still exist, but they’re quite heavily controlled.

Either way, some things do happen occasionally, and this is something most people shrug off.

That’s the other problem as well though; civilians will never, truly understand the feeling we have from the military lifestyle. It’s why a lot of veterans gravitate towards eachother.
The runtime for their serverless functions is also open source and (I guess) fairly portable: https://github.com/Azure/azure-functions-host

I did not write that. Please don't attack a straw man.

What I did write is that many important components of these systems appear to be stuck in lousy Nash equilibria, after decades during which the conventional wisdom in DC became that government should rely on markets to solve problems whenever possible.

The systems we've ended up are best described as hodgepodges -- e.g., in healthcare: many insurers are for-profit but two (Medicare and Medicaid) are not; many hospitals are now part of for-profit chains but others are non-profit; most medical research is done by for-profit entities like pharmaceutical companies but a lot is also done by government-funded organizations like NIH. On and on it goes.

BTW, while we're on the subject of healthcare, you might find the following article by Atul Gawande thought-provoking: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2009/06/01/the-cost-conun...
One good example is Microsoft adding dtrace to Windows. The Linux community has floundered for years with several competing tracing tools, all of which have major deficiencies in one way or another.
I did the same thing! The year was 1997. There was some kind of online coding competition back then if I recall correctly. Mine is larger (256 bytes) but it has a nice background image (a mandelbrot fractal). Here is the binary:

People who wail that lives are too precious to risk are ridiculously naive. By that logic, driving should not be tolerated, swimming pools and ski slopes should be closed, etc.

But it's very reasonable to argue that more caution is warranted when the danger triggers an unknown amount of additional danger rather than following the statistics of independent events, such as a new, infectious disease vs ongoing traffic fatalities. But the risk of putting a plastic bag over the head of an economy and keeping it there until you're sure all the germs are gone is also an unknown risk of cascading danger. Historically, infectious diseases and economic chaos have both had catastrophic social consequences.

We know more now about the features of this pandemic than we knew two months ago, more (not all but more) about how much it spreads and what happens when it does, but we don't know any more about the economic risks.

The same precautionary principle that grants disease control priority over traffic fatalities because of unknown risk of contagion now argues for an even higher priority for getting the bag off the head of the economy sooner.
Fantastic advice. Great explanation.
Man. I miss Johnny Cash.

His cover of NIИ's Hurt is so powerful. June Carter (his wife) died a few months after filming the video, and that just broke his heart. Johnny followed her less than six months later.

Trent Reznor admitted that the song was no longer his after watching it.
Testing wise, elixir is fantastic. I have a relatively large codebase where I run what are effectively full on simulations of the system in sharded-by-test partitions of state to verify correctness and robustness of the code. There are about 60 of those that run concurrently with the unit tests and the whole thing closes in 10 seconds.

Docs for elixir are pretty, too: here's a library that I wrote. The doc system is extensible enough that I could patch in docstrings from another language and also hyperlink (the </> buttons link to github) the GitHub code across languages (the `zig structs` section in the sidebar is autogenerated by parsing zig code) https://hexdocs.pm/zigler/Zigler.html

My joke is that you want to write documentation that's pretty and html-responsive enough that you can read it on the can between coding sprints.
Natural gas makes sense for the USA, Canada, Mexico, Russia, and maybe a few other countries.

It makes much less sense for other countries with less access to natural gas.
Thanks for the kind words! You're essentially the use-case that I had in mind when I was developing Pantry!

How did your project turn out btw, did the firmware developers get their mind blown by web tech?

Likewise, See seemed like it had so much potential but I didn't enjoy it much. I stopped part way as well. Admittedly I watch some pretty awful TV sometimes, so perhaps it really was just disappointment that it didn't live up to expectations.
Remember, the number one cause of software product failure is having barriers to entry that are too low.
A Mathematical Theory of Communication
Do Americans really check prospective employees' credit scores? Wow.
How would this handle external state? I realize in general that's an impossible task, but specifically I'm thinking of something like a database. Is there a way for each "server" to get a private copy of the database? Otherwise it seems like if I create a non-backwards-compatible migration (let's say I drop a table that's no longer necessary) I could break servers that were spawned for other commits.
I don't think they really have the power to extinguish anymore. Sure, Windows is still dominant in the desktop market, but that's not where the novel software is being written.

Amazon is the king of EEE these days. Microsoft is desperately trying to remain relevant.
The Work Number collects payroll information from employers without informing employees that they turn around and sell that information to third parties. They mislead people by saying they don't release pay information without employee authorization while neglecting to mention they sell everything else without asking permission or giving notification.

It looks like you're doing similar kinds of data collection directly from employers. If an employee doesn't request income verification or any other service from you folks, do you collect any data on that employee?
Very exciting, I really like your website - especially the API docs!

Awesome work!
How about "Stripe records Your Movements On its Customers Websites"? Does it still not convey the meaning? But yeah, click bait titles drive traffic to the blog and to your website (portfolio rebalancer) that you linked in your blog post. May be you will end up in page 1 of Google when some one searches "Stripe Privacy". Smart strategy and all in all a win :-)
It was my understanding that in the current system merchants tend to eat the cost of fraud under our current system (see charge backs, rolling reserves, etc.)
Eeeeh, still seeing signs of this in the NUC and Laptop space. For instance you can find a laptop with anything faster than a RTX 2060 despite 4800/4900HS completely thrashing the Intel line of laptop chips.

Same. I found this wiki page with a list of smartphone manufacturers by Country.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mobile_phone_brands_...

I’ve visited Taiwan for work quite a few times and met with some of the big tech manufacturers. Very professional teams of engineers and a beautiful country.

It would be super interesting if a Taiwanese manufacturer developed a smartphone + ecosystem whose selling point was no spyware and openness, at the price point of the Chinese manufacturers.
Glad we're solving something that you empathize with. I'll never turn down a warm intro, so let me know if you think we'd be useful to any folks at your previous company.

One thing a number of people told me when I was younger was “you should travel when you’re young and don’t have kids”.

... and I’m happy to have listened and acted on that advice.

Not everyone will listen, but sometimes there’ll be someone that does, or having heard the same advice numerous times from different people it’ll start to sink in at least a little.
In this aspect and many others, Urbit is reminiscent of Scientology.
HIV is a bit of a special case to begin with, since it's attacking the very immune system that would try to kill it. But is anyone clearing the virus on their own? I thought it required extensive retroviral therapy, and even then it isn't actually cleared?

Admittedly, I don't really keep up on the status of HIV, maybe something has changed.
While I agree with you, I think your criticism is better directed toward capitalism, not the winners within it. This is a structural problem.

That’s sounds like an epically dick move. Was it localized to the hiring department trying to “win” a negotiation or systemic to the company?
I'd rather have "people wracked with doubt and who fear their own ignorance" :)
"Online payment fees come from...credit card points/benefits."

I think this is part of the picture but not explicit enough. You could ask "but why should there be points and benefits when it's just a shell game?"

What I've seen claimed is that the underlying incentive for such programs is that having fees and benefits is a way of avoiding directly charging for credit with interest that is subject to truth-in-lending regulation.

I would be careful about claiming crypto can be cheaper when some part of the fees on credit cards is just interest by another name and not really transaction fees.
Why would IPFS replace SQL versus being a target for rendering from SQL? SQL gives you all of the power of a relational, transactional data store while IPFS gives you addressing permanence. The power then lies in your rendering engine to do the heavy lifting.
The parent comment was about systemtap, not systemd. + that's a very cynical opinion without supporting information.
The Moon could be the starting point for Mars colonization. Also, it would make a huge difference if the new Moon missions took advantage of the ISS, which the Apollo missions couldn't count on. One thing is bringing all crew, supplies and equipment from Earth in one trip, and a whole different thing is sending everything on/around the ISS using unmanned cargo missions, then assemble the lunar mission ships up there and send the Moon astronauts when necessary.
In other words: Earth<->ISS, then ISS<->Moon<->Mars and/or ISS<->Mars.

I used to think like what OP said. But after seeing the response in Asian countries with their much larger families and denser cities working against them and yet slowing the spread, masks might be playing an important role there. It also reminds everyone constantly. It does stop me from touching my face as well. So yeah, even if it's not perfect it's going to help quite a bit.
Hey thanks! I guess we'll have some friendly competition. :)
How are the lawyers the bad guys in this data breach issue? Equifax, its what's for dinner.
How do you think those online scammers that rob grandpa and grandma get their money? They don't use crypto—in fact some use gift cards!
The problem remains in any other system though. In Communism, the winners would be the politburo members instead of bigco executives.
In case it helps anyone: you can turn off issues in a GitLab project if you don’t want to see them.
The first two points are under-appreciated and it shouldn't be assumed that the environmental cost is negligible.

As for the third point, I don't think the film comes right out and says there are too many people, though it is implied. Specifically the film claims that in the last 200 years the population as well as the consumption rate per person has increased tenfold, for a total increased impact of 100 times.
Better as a tool, not as a language. By being uninteresting it removes focus on itself so we can better focus on what also matters: designing, measuring, documenting, fixing what is not code nor software

Career-long embedded developer here.

I enjoy participating in HN to discuss technical topics and whatnot, but I don't count on it as an information source for embedded work.

You'll find a few people here noodling with various toy projects and the Rust Evangelism Strike Force pops in from time to time, but that's about it.

Is there a reason? I don't have one. Probably because everyone else here is trying to create the next Uber and isn't down in the trenches poking at flywires.

Maybe try /r/embedded if you want to chat about things or ask for homework help because your professor is too busy. The S/N ratio is pretty decent there.
They pioneered the knowledge based authentication approach. It was never a good one. It's now utterly broken now that they leaked everyone's information.

At the very least, Equifax should be destroyed. And society would benefit more if it were destroyed in such a way to be an example for future organizations working in the space.
I like mostly metal, industrial, heh even ska, ... bust mostly death metal, but then there is Johnny Cash, and I hate country - though not Johnny - there is something about it - also Willie Nelson (and few other, probably there is more, it's just that I don't like mainstream one...)

Even major companies still haven't implemented something as trivial as Dark Mode in all of their apps by now, I wouldn't count on them to keep up with more complex changes.

Google still hasn't implemented Picture-in-Picture on iPads. Others still don't support split-view multitasking. Both these features have been out for years.
Not entirely. Some natural gas is co-produced at oil wells, but a lot more is produced from natural gas-only wells.
What I don't understand is, if they want to make the dissociation with Yarvin more clear, why not just change the name of the project?

I have the same question about ReiserFS.

I feel like it boils down to the fact that they know a bunch of their user or developer base would be angered by such a move, and that same portion are the folks the rest of the world would consider toxic, and so they just kind of ignore the question.
