Yes, I often like to say: imagine if the general public instead of wikipedia only had the papers used as references. It's not about all the knowledge we have, it's about how accessible it is. And for humans to make sense of knowledge, we usually need to be introduced to models or simpler abstractions first. If we didn't only had the knowledge but it was actually accessible in human-friendly ways, like 3blue1brown level and above (and tools and frameworks and playgrounds too, not only generic knowledge; models are vital for humans to make sense of things!), the potential wouldn't only be extraordinary, it would be fulfilled. Or that's what I live dreaming about.
and as with all things, interpretation is key.
It could just be the market they were interested in.
If they were actual camps, can someone explain why they were all empty? No cars, no trucks, no detainees, no guards at all?

To supply and run a crowded camp, you need guards and logistics. Nothing there.

Nowadays, researchers could easily obtain satellites images showing actual activities with all those clues.

Just by looking at the images, it not possible to draw conclusion they were concentration camps. They could be barracks under construction and that would also explain why blanket at Baidu map. The report didn't explain its logic to conclude they were concentration camps. And they didn't even consider other possibilities at all.

It is not serious research.

Remember the satellite image analysis of Wuhan's hospitals' parking lots that was supposed to reveal the true scale of covid19 outbreak in Wuhan? High resolution images with all the details. Still lots of flaws and no one takes it seriously now.

New York Times obtained some leaked confidential documents of China's Xinjiang policies. Nothing even close to concentration camp was revealed. It actually did CCP some favor.
Fossil fuels are going into the atmosphere, and they dont come back. I had no idea hn was so delusional about energy.
We just had rolling power cuts at sundown during the height of summer in California, largely due to over reliance on solar power. We urgently need better energy storage technologies.

Yes, users on TikTok are loyal, at the very least creators are. I haven't heard of any creators, at least none that I follow, moving to Instagram's competing offering.

I think there may also be a sense of broad injustice that makes people more loyal to the offering. The President's actions have laid bare the reality that this is just a smash and grab on behalf of US interests, and not based in any actual national security concern, painting him and the US government as dishonest and corrupt.

There are claims we did similar things in the Middle East, interfering under false pretenses to get oil, and it turns out in 2020 that approach is unpopular to the general public, even if it is 'in the US interest'.
These are case studies from companies that aren't google.
Still waiting on my pre-order. Absolutely love e-ink and it was incredibly sad to me when Google effectively killed Android e-ink by forcing OEMs to have a non-eink screen if they wanted to be a certified Android device with access to Google apps.

I understand Google's business position, but it was a shame to let an entire market segment die overnight.

Sadly my Re2 preorder has been delayed so long I went ahead and ordered an iPad so I could get down to work. iPad, and especially the apple pencil, has been incredibly useful and I'm looking forward to a head-to-head comparison. No longer sure I'll be keeping my re2
I think the idea is for you to build your own reset as the need for each individual feature comes up, instead of just throwing in a style sheet and not bothering to understand it.

For example, setting the box sizing properly in order to ensure consistent widths regardless of borders or padding.
Anything that goes from just your feet is gonna be pretty inaccurate just due to the laws of physics. You really want one that also has hand paddles.
Can you help me figure out the maths on that. So how much of the stock gain is from currency devaluation (against other currencies) and how much is due to appreciation (of investors willing to pay more real value) ?

Say .INX was 3250 in Jan and is 3500 now. -> 7.7% increase.
But currency has lost about 10% of its underlying value.

If something loses 1/10th of it's value we expect people to pay 11% (1/.9) more of that currency. So the 7.7% increase in stock market is actually a 3.3% decrease in a mixed currency basket?
Poverty is the result, not the cause. Bad attitudes and poor choices lead to poverty in America, not the other way around.
I think it will be like back end, a mix of Java/C#/C++.

JS isn't a great language, it's only popular because you can't use anything else on the web. The massive popularity of Typescript, even though it's only syntax sugar on top of JS, shows that the language leaves a lot to be desired.

It doesn't support threading, doesn't compile, has garbage standard library. And it's slower and more memory hungry than languages with these features like C# and Java.

There's talk of adding a "universal" GC to WASM. When this happens you'll see "traditional" enterprise languages invade enmasse
> And its only version 1.XX.

Are there plans for a new version that is radically different, or is it going to be like Java or macOS where updates continue to change what is usually considered the minor version?
Missed the edit window of my other post. Just got it setup and it was a breeze, only took ~30 minutes! It's running with Docker (nginx w/ Let's Encrypt, Jitsi on http, port 8000) and it was a bit unclear what specifically needed to be configured in the `.env` file[0] but managed to get it up and running on the first try.

So far I've only tried it with 2 people but the CPU barely flinched (a 2 core basic VPS) - most of the heavy lifting seems to be happening client-side. Uses ~500 MB of RAM.

Initial impression: 5/5

And you seem determined to establish that you deserve some credit for playing the game according to the rules of the puppet masters. What OP and I are saying is that the game is rigged and that we should either (a) fight to change it altogether or (b) not play it at all.

The trouble with the rat race is that even if you win, you're still a rat.
I see why go is clearly superior to C++. I see why it's simplicity is great for bringing new people up to speed. I see why it's concurrency model is better than many other languages. And I really like their software engineering philosophy.

Go seems clearly one of the if not the best systems language around.

But how is Go in the line of business web application space? The space that's historically been dominated by your Python, Ruby, Go , node.js, C#, Java applications?

I get it's probably more performant, but honestly in C# my primary language I spend almost all my time optimizing DB queries and almost none optimizing C# code. I get it's concurrency model is better, but with web apps that usually isn't much of a problem.

Is Go as better in this space as it clearly is in the systems programming space?
I get it could be used for the LoB use case but is it better, and if so is it significantly or marginally better?
But doesn't years of long work lead up to hard work. Early in my career a lot of time was spend learning concepts, theory and practice. After 10 years of this, I started seeing the big picture, recognize patterns and make decisions.

how’s the Forma compared to the Oasis?
It's undeniably true when political power is distributed to the masses, and less and less true when it concentrates. Basically, the more democratic the political system, the truer it is. Which hints at the fundamental nature of political self-interest versus economic self-intrest - economic self-interest is fundamentally alienating while political self-interest conforms to both material and immaterial goals.
I tried go and it's nice to work with. The use-case of when to with me is limited by other existing good choices.
Google Translate, for example, is amazing.
How do you imagine this wiretapping works? This NIC is installed in your servers, and is fed AEAD keys that are derived from key exchange with a client by your TLS stack (and so private keys exist on the host, not on the NIC). This allows the NIC to decrypt/encrypt flows that pass through it and free up CPU cycles. QUIC requires forward secrecy for key exchange, so every flow will use a different AEAD key already, meaning any snooped key can only be used to decrypt the current flow, not any others. Every modern offload NIC uses this basic design, more or less. Where's the wiretap? Is the NIC going to somehow store every intermediate AEAD keys and escrow it to the NSA somehow? What does NOBUS have to do with any of this? And why wouldn't they just backdoor the motherboard/OS/CPU itself to acquire private keys directly?
I think notability would describe themselves as a note taking app (which is what I use it for).

Your app looks great, as soon as the price point is somewhere near sensible for me I’ll be a customer, but it’s quite a way off for me personally yet.
> I find it a bit odd that people think Netflix is worth more money than a tool that might transform your creative output.

I'm sure for some it will, but at least after a look at the website, I can't imagine it's going to transform my creative output relative to the system I already have for free. (Disclaimer: I don't have Netflix either.)
Are they? I see links to case studies about Firebase and Google Cloud.

HI! I'm the correspondent for AFP a global news agency, and I'm looking for to speak with people leaving San Francisco because of pandemic/remote work. Can i talk to you?
You're missing or ignoring a long history of extreme poverty in the American South, and deliberate policy decisions to under-invest in those communities in order to maintain the status quo.

Nobody in this thread is proposing that FEMA help idiots in their multi-million dollar Florida oceanfront mansions that regularly get decimated by hurricanes. Those people can and regularly do bail out and return to their other homes in California or Nevada at the first sign of trouble. Your stated position is not based on reality -- most rich people do very little to help their communities.

But even ignoring this fact -- random towns along the Mississippi coast don't have a lot of lawyers or doctors or directors of engineering with overflowing bags of money to graciously spend on their community, even if such philanthropy was common (which, again -- it isn't). Everyone in those communities is poor, and struggles to get by during good times. That's what FEMA is supposed to be for.

And under-investment in FEMA's hurricane preparedness is yet another deliberate policy decision to throw these poorer communities under the bus, in favor of the wealthier communities where terrorists seeking visibility are expected to focus their efforts.
They're all neutron stars. Magnetars are young and make some of the strongest magnetic fields in the universe. Pulsars are old and weak, and make regular beeps if you're watching them from the right place. They're probably on a spectrum, as opposed to rigidly separated categories.

There's a hypothesis that the fast radio bursts like the ones detected here might be produced by magnetars.
Which screen protector do you recommend? Also, does using such paper-textured protector decrease the life of Apple pencil?
HI! I'm the correspondent for AFP a global news agency, and I'm looking for to speak with people leaving San Francisco because of pandemic/remote work. Did you already moved? Do you know other person in the process? Can I talk to you?
Never heard of him
It spreads the chargebacks across multiple processors, who don't talk to each other so don't know about the chargebacks on the other processors.
Makes a lot of sense. We know so little about the trillions of bacteria inside of us, and taking a nuke to them all is going to have consequences. There are probiotics tuned for IBD on the market, and one can only imagine the complexities of the ecological dynamics.

I personally believe that in 100 years there will be a real bacterial awakening in science understanding how much our microbiome affects so much about our health and happiness, and will look at antibiotics as a Neanderthal-like in their oversimplification.
I think it would be cool to do 3d design in a format like this, openscad, fusion360 etc. the pencil feels like a natural fit.

I'm hoping for a world where e-ink gets iPad levels of repsonsiveness, honestly. I like the displays alot, they render text beautifully at a high DPI (at least ones i've seen).

Its just that they don't have the best response time. Thats really my limiting factor.

I don't expect them to replace the iPad, for instance, but for using as a true digital notebook and book reader (magazines too, if the color e-inks get better) they look and feel ideal for this, except for the lag time in responsiveness, that's the part that kills it for me every time I investigate it.
You can direct most of the payments towards the cheap-but-prudish processors, and the really adult stuff towards a processor that accepts almost anything but is more expensive.
I've been looking at this or an ipad to use as a notepad and a reader for technical books. But then I take a deep breath and compare the price to the price of buying used books and keep going along with physical objects.
> I see why go is clearly superior to C++.

You shouldn't. If anything you should be looking into where C++ does better than Go and see if Go is improving there–and understanding that there will always be places where Go is not the best choice or even appropriate.
USA's Pacific Ocean imperialism was never really distinguishable from its Western America colonialism. The same racist bastards (as in, the same actual army personnel: Jacob Hurd Smith, Leonard Wood, Blackjack Pershing, etc.) who killed lots of indigenous Americans also killed lots of indigenous Filipinos. The Bud Dajo Massacre was similar to that at Wounded Knee sixteen years earlier, except probably more diabolical.

Of course, the imperial conquest of Philippines presaged more USA imperial conquest elsewhere.

Indeed.

"All your work is instantly synced to the cloud"

Ugh. Nope nope nope.

But now maybe sounds like I could turn that off and just rsync the files to my Debian tower.

That is more win.
No idea, but I think it is impressive that a language that is still on "version 1.XX" has been so successful so far.
Go 2 will have generics, https://blog.golang.org/generics-next-step
>The true energy solution to climate change will need to be a mix of wind, solar, nuclear, storage, and more

Why? If you have nuclear, why bother with wind and solar - especially since wind and solar don't play well with nuclear.
What about making the object borrow from the closure?

This can be accomplished by a method that consumes the object and returns the closure (which now owns the object), and a closure method's that borrows the object back from it.
It's just like on 4chins

When people see someone saying that European Persian and Indian are the same family they go dipshit because "how can someone with dark skin have any relations to someone with pale skin".

Should say something about the general view of not few HN readers.
A lot of people seem to think free markets -> anarchy, which is a complete straw man. Prominent Libertarian economists such as Friedman[1] support governments dealing with externalities generally, and the carbon tax specifically.

If all you know about X is the totemic version reverberating through anti-X echo chambers, you probably don't understand X.

You might check out https://exercism.io/tracks/rust . Some are a little heavy in the math department but personally I've always found test drive learning useful when learning a new language thanks to instant feedback.
Reminds me of this digital typewriter project using a e-ink display: https://alternativebit.fr/posts/ultimate-writer

The problem with this project was the lack of a affordable e-ink display with a decent refresh rate.

Would love to see a real terminal on the ReMarkable. A terminal + vim + usb keyboard would be the perfect distaction-free writing tool.
Speaking of Android, I used my phone as a hotspot for over a year. When I dropped my phone and the screen broke, while I waited for a replacement screen to DIY, I was able to use ADB to navigate to the assistive tools that would screen read. With that I was able to toggle on and off some settings relade to keeping the hotspot on and churning.

Accessibility can help normal people in extraordinary situations too.
The article says "I completed SEVENEVES recently", so you're on the right track.
Great Recession!

From an analysis by the Wharton school[0]:

“It’s not just that they missed it, they positively denied that it would happen,” says Wharton finance professor Franklin Allen, arguing that many economists used mathematical models that failed to account for the critical roles that banks and other financial institutions play in the economy. “Even a lot of the central banks in the world use these models,” Allen said. “That’s a large part of the issue. They simply didn’t believe the banks were important.”

They were fundamentally unprepared and many were unwilling to even entertain the idea that the housing market could collapse. That’s what made stories like The Big Short so surreal, they had all these experts telling them that they were wrong, and economists played a major role in that episode.

The HFT doesn’t want a position, it’s only trading because it anticipates what B is doing right now and adding cost to the process without improving the result.
If the in-app purchase allows family sharing (which isn’t even possible until ios14) I’d be much more likely to shell out.

Chances are, if I wind up liking the app enough to pay, my wife would also, and I hate paying full price x2...
So the next logical step is to move astronomy into space. I mean all the astronomy, including an amateur astronomy. Elon Musk should launch 100k telescopes into orbit (somewhat higher than constellations of satellites), so I could pay $100/year to rent one, to write a program controlling telescope taking pictures and sending them to me.
I think the point GP is trying to make is that it already is not free, and it's not free in the wrong direction.
The Ploy thickens! I get so excited about stories.
That’s the beauty of living in a democracy; he’s welcome to his own opinion and if wants to change things he can campaign for it.

> Why can't we have HEB in California?

I think most grocery companies are really food logistics companies under the hood. Expanding requires building out the logistics.

With that in mind, the answer seems to be "We can't have an HEB in California because there's a bunch of AZ and NM between Texas and California".

If you want something HEB-like, there's always Safeway or Sprouts.
> If you want to know how it's done right, you gotta look at how the "moving photos" people do it.

So basically, all I need is a software which can do post-capture tonemapping on captured pixels before streaming the frames.
I've said this before but there is no evidence that battery storage can scale to anything like the required storage. Tesla's battery in Australia stores roughly what the UK receives from French nuclear over production in a few minutes.
The men and women of the Apollo program were much more distant from SF than Unix and Berkeley and LSD. I fully understanding desiring to be a closer decedent of Richard Feynman than Timothy Leary, but that's just a desire, not a truth. I myself am an engineer who previously lived in SF, so no sneering - however I came from poverty, southern california, east LA, etc - which is a very different world than my University of Chicago comp-sci friends.

It takes all kinds :)
I've always partially wanted something like this, but can't get away from paper. I recently completed a PhD and tried an iPad and my computer, but ended up always printing off articles. It's annoying having a lot of physical paper around, but I'm constantly flipping back and forth in papers and it's so inconvenient to do that digitally. I also find it's so much easier for me to recall information based on where it was, and I completely lose that in a digital device.

Curious if those have been issues for you or not. I wonder if it's just how my mind works, or if I'm not "doing it right"?
Are you looking at the right page? The first three companies I see there are American Express, Capital One and Cloudflare on the list they link to:

The amount that cost continues to decrease is almost mind boggling. The manufacturing learning curve is truly providing exponential returns for decades now.

Seems like the comparison is unfair (or at least, overly simplistic) unless you include the cost of enough storage to provide supply more in the general shape as the demand curve.

Solar is great by providing the most generation during peak hours, and wind is a great compliment in that generation slacks during the day when solar is at its strongest. Combined in theory they can do a decent job covering the demand curve, until you hit a stretch of calm or cloudy days...

If you included 24 hours of storage in the LCOE then solar and wind probably stop looking quite so cheap. But if you ignore the biggest innate trade-off then they become the cheapest energy around.
Recently I've disabled search and watch history, and home page content became very similar to the Trending tab in my country (i.e. pure garbage). Also I've lost ability to resume playback from last known position across devices, so had to turn watch history on back. And it made my home page great again.
