Moral arguments against price discrimination center around fairness and inefficient outcomes.

For example if a vaccine for an infectious disease was priced higher for people who are more likely to be exposed to that disease (because they have a greater willingness to pay), it could create an unfair burden on this buyer segment and even place the overall population health at risk. Just because a seller knows they have greater leverage over this vulnerable population.

Sparks from their welding work ignited a supply of fireworks, which had been stored next to the ammonium nitrate cache.

Seems a little unfair to blame this solely on welders -- the root cause was whoever decided it was a good idea to store 2700 tons of explosive fertilizer so close to a city.

Secondary is whoever decided it was a good idea to store fireworks in the warehouse that stored this explosive fertilizer.

Last on the list is the welders that were told to work on this door near the fireworks and fertilizer.
The history of this is actually really interesting and goes back to the founding of the country itself.

I'm about a quarter of the way through this book which tackles this issue in detail throughout US history: https://www.amazon.com/Fight-Vote-Michael-Waldman/dp/1501116...

I'd recommend it so far if it's something you're interested in.

I found it from this interview which is also good, might be worth listening to this first before deciding to pick up the book: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SgVuJiMxOb4

Some quick tidbits:

- Initially the public couldn't vote for senators who were chosen by state legislature.

- Initially the public couldn't vote for president.

- Initially the 'public' was white men with property (this one is more widely known), but there was a lot of arguing between states about this. In some states the vote was originally available to more people before being restricted.

- Early on candidates persuaded people to vote with booze filled parties. A lot of early anti-women voting arguments were originally about protecting them from these parties (bizarrely).

- Lots of long discussions between founders about what it would mean to having a voting public, fear of the public vs. aristocrats, potential abuse of government, and the rise of a tyrannical leader, etc.

I liked this argument from Ben Franklin:

“Imagine that a man owns a donkey, and so he gets the right to vote. And in the next four years, he learns a lot more about politics and current events and becomes a more equipped citizen, but his donkey dies, and you want to take his vote away because he no longer owns property? So who, pray tell, does the right to vote reside in? The man or the ass?”
While many URLs are not designed for human consumption, many are, and many users are "trained" to some degree to understand them. But most importantly, users need some visual (or auditory, if sight-impaired) cue as to what kind of site their on, what domain at the very least. That's why HN puts the domainname of the authority of any posted links next to the title.

Regarding URLs that are not designed for human consumption, if they can possibly land in the status bar, then that's on their designers. Yes, of course, that's exactly what malicious players will do: design URLs that users can't parse -- but that's no reason to hide the bar altogether, but rather to hide parts of the URL (e.g., the scheme, the credentials, maybe the fragment, the query, even the path -- everything but the authority).
Anyone complaining about this has never experienced the frustration of rural living when it comes to internet. This is absolutely amazing, and it will just get better.

Even a reliable 10mbps would be a godsend in many places.

Take a step towards the door. On the next step, take half that step. Keep taking half the step as before and you'll never get to the door. Perhaps the multi/universe is so infinite that there's no end or beginning as we know it. You can fill in the blank with deities, anthropomorphic or what have you, but that's where science ends and religion begins.
> I know of at least three Ubuntu derivatives who have Snap preinstalled and every snap I maintain has between 5% and 10% non-Ubuntu users.

Pop!_OS doesn't install snap by default, but it does Flatpak.

> Given that every AppArmor thing Snap needs is in the upstream kernel, any distribution with a fairly recent kernel an userspace has full confinement

Just because it is in upstream kernel, does not mean it is used by other distributions. Only that it can be used. But so can be SELinux, which is also in upstream kernel.

> The main limitation is that Snap can't run when SELinux is running at the same time.

Exactly, different distributions have chosen different LSMs in the past and they are going to stick with them. RHEL or Fedora are not going to switch to AppArmor anytime soon.

> Canonical is working with a bunch of other people on LSM stacking in order to make that work.

Good for them that they are realizing this is a problem. Flatpak was developed from the start with the different LSMs in mind.

> That might not be something you use outside of experiments, but don't generalize statements like that.

OK, some people might be too brave ;)
What about VDSL2 Vectoring (G.vector)? Seems like it mitigates most of the crosstalk problems - but I admit I'm not an expert on DSL deployments.

It seems VDSL2 can achieve maximum throughput at run lengths under 1000ft from the DSLAM, with maximum performance beginning to degrade after. That sounds sufficient for most of the people currently stuck with slow access right now in the US (more rural areas outside major cities, but not actually remote as-in nearest neighbor is 1 mile away).

Also... surely solving this problem is cheaper than sending thousands of satellites into orbit every few years as they decay.
Any x86_64 Windows, Mac, or Linux machine will play it. Bigger factories will bog down on lesser hardware.
This is actually a good idea and could be done collectively as well as individually.
If the price is 5 times cheaper though... what then?
Unibody would cut shell materials by 10-20% but there are many other car parts like interior, battery. So entire cut rate won't so high.

Also dropping a broken car and building a new car takes manufacturing costs.
The CSB has a number of YouTube videos detailing how industrial accidents happen, and it's almost always flame, sparks, gasses, corrosion, and a fuel source.

Nobody is going to get paid for being safe, few care about learning it,fewer are going to get paid teaching it, and few are going to be listened to.

The "safe guy" is going to be the butt end of the jobs because they cost more, get it done slower, and aren't going to work on unsafe places. It's all about get it done and if someone dies that's the cost of doing business and that's on the worker.
Before the elections, when Putin thought that Trump would lose, and influence campaigns were designed to promote him as a detractor and divider, calling out the rigged elections and the deep state swamp. With Roger Stone laundering Russian "opposition research", like he did with Wikileaks, at that time a front for Russian intelligence.

4Chan has been very involved with these intelligence ARGs since after Project Chanology. Pedowood morphed into Pizzagate. "Seth Rich murder" was pushed hard on 4Chan, to detract from the fact that the Russians hacked the democrats. And it works: Instead of being insulted and angry that a foreign nation state so polutes the brains of your country and riles up the population to the level of riots and extreme polarization, some like to think that Hillary had Seth Rich assassinated for leaking. With so much smoke, who knows what to think? All the while you see artificial KONY2012-style meme campaigns accusing Mueller of being a deep state fixer, synced on Twitter, Facebook, and 4chan.
I watched quite a few live sessions of MS Build this year and I really enjoyed it. My employer encouraged this during the day and I learned a lot. If not for that conference being virtual, I would not have gone. I do think you miss out on the social experience/networking, but I'd be happy to see this type of thing happen occasionally going forward.
Going to less good university just so that you leave home sounds to me like immature decision. It is the sort of thing teenagers do - doing something irrational just to prove that I am an adult.

I think that if you have good relationships with parents, do your part in the house chores, the school nearby is actually good, there is absolutely nothing wrong with staying at home. If you cant wait till you leave the family home, then maybe it is not that you are super mature, maybe simply relationships in your family sux. Which is not a badge of honor.

To add, living outside of campus have one big advantage - freaking uninterrupted sleep time.
Ultimately it should be made possible to do it locally. Current setting is low-quality and takes about 1-2 seconds. Mid-setting about 20 seconds and high about 20 minutes.
According to the link, the welders were Syrian workers. So they might well have been an even more precarious position than your average Lebanese citizen.
They'll also bring new manufacturing processes to their new factories. Musk said on the latest earnings call that new factories are building "better cars" with all the latest enhancements. So while Fremont might keep making "original" model 3, I think it's likely other new factories will skip straight to the new processes.

So for example the factory in Berlin will just start with a monster press like this on day 1, so all Model Y built there will automatically have the "new" design. Same for the Model 3 and Model Y lines in Texas.
How is that comment toxic? The code this guy was trying to get merged in was toxic, and the kernel developer rightly told them to stop trying to push this harmful code.
Also, it works in open/save dialog boxes.

I've consumed content from three virtual conferences this summer. They've all had more or less the same format: one or more tracks of prerecorded videos with simultaneous live chat with the presenters in attendance. One event had a livestreaming DJ as a kind of afterparty.

In my experience, there has not been any difference between "attending" an event and just watching the videos later. I have not been able to capture any of the benefits of actually attending an IRL event.

Granted, I've also avoided the indignities of IRL events, such as annoying audience members, long lines for conference food, and talks that turn out to be less relevant than anticipated.

I think tech communities have lost enough aspects of IRL events that there's nothing left to lose if you just allowed people to post talks throughout the year to YouTube under some tag and maybe applying light vetting for quality.
This is true! I oversimplified a bit, because it's much easier to concretely discuss that scenario and its consequences, and it's more important from a philosophical perspective. Just like it's much easier to catch ice cubes forming on film by rewinding a tape than to run the camera waiting for spontaneous entropy decrease.

Nonetheless, if the entropy of the whole universe were to consistently decrease for a sufficient time, even along a different route than time reversal, you should gradually start to notice that it's easier to form predictions or "memories" of the future than to remember the past, due to Landauer's principle. Before long, you should go back to considering the future to be the state of higher entropy.

This is awesome to hear. This will enable more people to move out to more remote places and get some nice speeds. 60MB/s is good enough for most remote work and TV streaming services. I can't wait to see what the major players will respond to this if it's opened up to major cities.
Retrospectively we came to the conclusion that he had mixed in too much hardener. Incredible how fast that went. From 'hot to the touch' to 'poof'. Nearly colorless flame too, super dangerous. Fortunately I got it covered before it got worse. That wasn't heroic either, I had to get past the bloody vat to get to safety so I figured I'd better stop it burning first.

Copy-pasting random javascript from the internet is not good security hygene.
sure, but it's also full of weird gimmicky shit so who knows when it'll show up, if it gets scaled.

I'm thinking more about things like the roadster. Even for being relatively similar, the accents are all more aggressive and it creates a very distinct look that the 3XY absolutely do not. And then the most frustrating thing is that Musk clearly does not intend to make very many of them! He's treating it like an ultra halo car, when just having a convertible version of the 3 with a slightly different body would make the psychological choice to buy a Tesla far easier.

Like, people don't even have to buy it. Just by existing it would make Tesla look more competitive- it just needs to seem like an accessible choice. The roadster would be perfect, but it's too expensive and full of unnecessary shit for no reason, and that totally ruins the benefit! It epitomizes what frustrates me with Musk- a great core idea, but deeply crippled by goofy whims.

One thing I haven't heard about yet: who was paying for all that prime warehouse storage space all these years?
That's wild! Thanks!
Strong disagree, I've worked at/seen so many places that do deployments in reckless and awful ways that I don't think it's obvious to most people.

Even in this thread, the arguments "against" containers, a lot of these things have alternatives that are still better. For instance, ok maybe you need to make a hotfix, you're still better off just compiling a one-off image on a dev machine and deploying it (I used to be able to do this in like, 30 seconds), as compared to trying to edit files directly on the server. Especially if you have multiple servers.
Really wish it was a Chromium extension (or PWA) rather than separate app.

> I wonder if in the future welding masks will integrate fire alarms.

I don't really see that as a feature anyone wants.

It's pretty easy and straightforward to buy a fire/CO alarm and keep it near you. If you need to be mobile, it seems straight forward to put them on a cheap chest rig.

I get that there might be some convenience factor involved, but:

1. It's pretty terrible UX to add weight to people's heads. Even a little bit makes everything a lot worse.

2. Having an alarm integrated into a mask is going to a Gillette razor blades / HP inkjet situation, where the alarms have to be changed out every 6 months and cost $200. There is great virtue in staying on the path of high volume and multiple suppliers.
just to do some napkin maths, the entire constellation is supposed to be 12k satellites. Some googling gives 20Gbps throughput per satellite, so that'd be about 240k Gbps per second.

Now of course the satellites keep exchanging information themselves and not all satellites are everywhere all the time but ignoring that, and let's say you can assume ten times as much bandwidth because not everyone is online at the same time, that still doesn't serve a lot of people right?

If you go with their eventual Gigabit speed claims that'd work out to about 2 million customers if I didn't make an error. That's only a single digit percentage of the American rural population let alone anywhere else in the world.
That’s illegal too. If the police find out you provided them fake data, that’s the crime of lying to police.
The greater the surface area the quicker the decay. So if these satellites naturally fall after 3-5 years that means that if they somehow collided with each other creating millions of pieces of debris they would clear out with in less than a year because of the loss of energy during the collisions and the increased surface area.
Clearly you've never been in or worked in gov organizations. It's far more common than you think and easy to think, "it can't possibly happen here or to me."

In the U.S. institutions like OSHA, USCSB, NTSB, and the FAA are vilified, but the rules they enforce have been written with blood.
The major thing you've left out, is for the past 100 years we've also had many of the best minds in the world. Not that Americans are smarter than anyone else, but many of the brightest and most entrepreneurial people from around the world have moved to America and done amazing things here.

To me, our recent limitations on immigration are the biggest canary in the coal mine as far as how America's future may end up being less optimistic than one would expect by extrapolating from the 20th century.
This is what turns me away from the astronomers complaining about the constellations. They’re not interested at all in the community whose problems satnet helps resolve. Society has had plenty of time to run data lines out to the hardest to reach areas and clearly cannot and will not do it any other way.
The new "Always show full URLs" option fixes that, because http/https is always visible.

If they can't show the pictures that they have claimed to have deleted then they can't use it to bring in eyes for advertisers, which means that the data is a net loss for them, causing them to have to buy more storage sooner.

I know it’s a comment piece and all, but this kind of content really rubs me the wrong way.

It’s totally fair to investigate and regulate companies’ privacy practices. Many of them are downright scary. But we don’t need to deliberately misrepresent them in order to do so. There is no “surveillance campaign”; abusing the term weakens the argument against all of those actual surveillance campaigns out there.
IANAP but there's two different things that come to mind.

Even if the number of states were infinite, as long as there's a reasonable probability distribution you can know you can integrate over the probabilities that have some property vs another (say: solid vs not).

Secondly, energy is quantized (on a very very very small level) in reality. Ymmv though, I tried googling this and read some stuff about waves being quantized and particles not and about how it depends on what system you're looking at and I had to drop out of quantum physics when I took it :-)
There are health officials (I don't know what to call them) going around Mission Dolores Park handing out masks to groups sitting together that don't cohabitate. Banned implies they would have park rangers instead going around issuing tickets like they do for having glass, etc.

While I agree that lackadaisical response is making this drag on, I don't think San Francisco contributes much to that.

2,750 tons of ammonium nitrate stored in the same building, next to a cache of fireworks, mind you. Corruption plays a part, but I'm astonished by the incompetence that's usually going hand in hand with the corruption. I'm surprised a catastrophe took 7 years to happen. You simply do not store that much fertilizer in a single place.

I love Django / Django Rest Framework and have used it for a long time, but we recently dumped it from a project in favor of FastAPI.

There is just so many layers of magic in Django, that it was becoming impossible for us to improve the performance to an acceptable level. We isolated the problems to serialization / deserialization. Going from DB -> Python object -> JSON response was taking far more time than anything else, and just moving over to FastAPI has gotten us a ~5x improvement in response time.

I am excited to see where Django async goes though. Its something I had been looking forward to for a while now.
I mean, at the bare minumum someone must have been willing to take this stuff off the states hands at least for free, right? A Google search says 500$ a ton for it
I ran across the image in this tweet of work being done on the door to the warehouse a couple hours after the blast. I presumed there was welding going on and this set off the fireworks which led to the blast. It amazes me how much information can be gathered in such a short time compared to just twenty years ago. The internet is wonderful.

The repairs in the image are probably not the repair that caused the blast. That was my thought process though.
