So I agree protest and coordinated action is needed for a health democracy but we're going on over 70 days of rioting and arson and looting.

I don't even understand what the message is anymore, it seems like it is just people looking for an excise to be destructive. How can dialog and constructive progress by made in this kind of environment?
The benefit being that this reduces the energy usage required to fully separate the substances? Otherwise you could just apply this process and cut out the fungus entirely.

The question is how to do automatic resource management. There are no checks of any sort, runtime or not, to help you here (correct me if I'm wrong).

RAII is not precluded by explicitness, you could require all values that require cleanup to be syntactically marked in some way and it would still be RAII. defer also cannot handle resources whose lifetimes do not correspond to nested scopes (eg. the elements of an ArrayList) like RAII or a GC can.
It is truly remarkable how many replies in that thread consist of bad analogies, denials of clear third party reporting, and whatabout-ism.
This is exactly my experience working on CFD software with hydrodynamics phds haha they don’t care about the “little” things and will allocate and copy shit everywhere
That's the sales pitch. It's not entirely true, even before considering how many YouTube videos are themselves ads.
You bet me to it. Suzuki Esceudo Pikes peak edition tuned to >1000bhp. Point it into the wall on the speedway and selotape the controller in place. You had a one in n chance of winning a formula one car. I think this is "lazy work" :P
Investors Hoard Gold, Bitcoin and Whisky to Soothe Inflation Fear
I think people are skeptical, because a lot of the people talking about these camps clearly don't care about the people in them. They only care about making China look bad. Many politicians in the US are using this as an example of why China is bad, while simultaneously pushing for similar here with our prison system or with ICE.

Plus, even if they aren't being hypocrital, it is in the United States' interest to make China look bad, even if that means making things up or exaggerating.
I've been slowly replacing the C files of xv6 with some zig. It was surprisingly easy with the generated header files to use zig from within the C part.
Thinking About Things: Newsletter with one link a day
That's not what the article is saying.

It describes a rewrite of a single service from Go to Rust.

Reading between the lines, a rather simple piece of code.

At no point it implies that Discord rewrote all their Go code in Rust and completely abandoned Go.
I'm not arguing we should not lock down. I'm saying, we can lift the lockdowns anytime we choose, and we have removed the economic defect.

Have their own advertising platform which they take a 30% cut and ban any app that uses a competing platform the same way they do with IAP.
There's a fairly healthy dev community around it too fwiw, e.g. a bunch of linked projects here: https://github.com/reHackable/awesome-reMarkable

e-reader app ports, screen mirroring, full OS replacements, etc. It's a relatively niche device so of course there are significant gaps in what's available, but it's active and the depth is fairly impressive.
C'mon, what does it take for Zoom to understand that when people uninstall software they don't want parts of it to stick around forever?
For a moment I thought Sam Altman was spending his time reading random HN forums and commenting on the intricacies of Rust coding. Took me a minute to catch the missing "l" in your handle ;)
These are good points - may not work for more creative/specialized teams where the tasks are all relatively unique and not well quantified.

Might work for teams that have layers of people in the same role (e.g. Supervisors) all doing more or less the same tasks (e.g. interviewing new hires). Things like manufacturing, IT ops, sales ops, service industries...
It squish the image like that sadly.
With so many lego collaborations, special sets, special parts, I kind of miss the days when lego was more simple and required more imagination.
I'm surprised it hasn't been. Some initial reporting measured expansion of the camps by floor space which can be used to estimate internment numbers. One of the researcher is a licensed architect, this is 101 stuff in terms of occupancy/building use estimation. Source some commercial satellite service to take pictures and start counting.

That said, if the intention of the system is to indoctrinate then we can expect most of the 11M Uyghurs to be imprisoned at some time. Really the question is concurrent numbers which makes for grabbing headlines. My personal guess is if competent geospatial analysis was conducted the actual detention capacity would be far lower than the commonly cited 1-3 million Zenz estimated extrapolated from his claims of 1,200 detention centres. This study, alleged to be comprehensive, found 260 (edit 315) camps in the entire region. At least it's a good start.
> comes across as cheap and disposable

I think they get a bit of a bad rep because, yes you can get a $10 MDF nightstand that will probably last a couple years... but once you stop scraping the bottom of the barrel, their mid-range and up stuff does complete really well on quality and price, especially if mid-century style aesthetics appeal to you...

Just an fyi as well. Your site did not load any content for me with the Disconnect.me and uBlock Origin blockers. I had to disable these to get the signup form to appear, and have the loading icons disappear.
I would buy the RM2 in a heartbeat if it supported a keyboard over usb or Bluetooth.

Having an outdoor-friendly typewriter where text is saved seamlessly would be awesome for focused writing. I did my best to make it easy on a phone+keyboard+kindle (with SolarWriter https://msolomon.github.io/solarwriter-website/ ), but the Remarkable is so so close to the ideal experience—it just needs keyboard support.
Fair point, I've strayed from the topic at hand.
Lets say I lined up a bunch of asbestos and snorted as much as possible. How fast could I possibly die?
Apple to start requiring written consent for third party API usage in apps
IIRC raising prices only on IAP was violation of terms but now it's possible
There is a good documentary on Netflix and a different good one on HBOMax about lego. If you watch both there is some overlap and also different info in each one, but you get a pretty complete picture of why they do all the special sets.

The summary is that they almost went bankrupt and licensing basically saved them.

> Iraq invasion was driven by faulty intelligence gathered in secret by a spy organization.

No, it was driven by politically motivated lies that the governments knew were fabrications. It wasn't intelligence driving policy, but preconceived policy driving intelligence to support the arguments that were already decided. And this was fairly evident and evidence for it fairly widely reported, though also widely of ignored, during the drive to war.

The Uighurs camps situation doesn't appear the same, but of course it's abstractly possible that the lies are just better covered and laundered through external organizations. But I don't think that's the Occam's Razor answer.
But Apple allows ads from other platforms, so the answer to the question is obviously no.
Maybe someone can put the coordinates on a github repo so they are accessible in China?
That may be true, but most people go to Ikea for the cheap stuff, otherwise they would go to a "real" furniture store.

Looking for a great e-paper device, but the marketing of the video where deficiencies (no notifications etc) are treated as features sounds like bullshit spin and its really off-putting.
I'm not sure it's a given that "government provided equivalents" would be less political (or culturally slow-moving, as it were) than the situation now. I also had not considered that the banking sector is lightly regulated. Are you suggesting a re-envisioning of the banking sector as a sort of public utility?
Kind of frustrating the reporting didn't compensate the pins on the map to adjust for this. Most of the dots currently point to nothing useful. I hope the data set gets released with real + compensated coordinates so people can conduct followup analysis.

> Slavery, for instance, was the most efficient means of agriculture for thousands of years. We changed it, somewhat ironically, by replacing it with mechanisation, driven by fossile fuels.

Eh? Almost nowhere transitioned directly from slavery to mechanisation. Not serfdom, even. Heavy mechanisation of agriculture was a 20th century thing.
Let's talk about the new Slack. The crowded title bar (with the hamburger icon, the search box, and now even the profile icon) means you can only grab it for dragging in two specific zones. Even worse, the window cannot be dragged at all when search is active, as the title bar gets completely overshadowed by the search popup. Absolute trash of an UI.

IntelliJ IDEA also fell victim to this trend of abusing the title bar, but they are be reverting the change and providing a setting after listening to the inevitable criticism: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-219212

Lead Acid is pretty old tech. My car (Tesla Model 3) has a roughly 75kWh lithium-ion battery. Even with AC and/or a heat pump, that battery could run a rather large home for more than a day on it’s own. Their powerwall home battery is a roughly 17kWh battery that is stackable to build any size system you want.

Point of use energy generation and storage is a much bigger deal than I think people realize. I believe internally Tesla thinks this is many times it’s car business.
Wouldn't you still need to be careful about the device auto-joining to open public wifi? Basically, if you were going to be away from your house you'd have to always remember to disable the wifi before you left. Alternatively, just keeping wifi off and only using the USB cable means you don't have to worry about forgetting to disable wifi before you leave home. :)
Giant in the mid-Atlantic has had this sort of experience for well over a decade I want to say? You pick up a scanner and scan your shop card, then you scan & bag your items as you shop and self-checkout at the end. Between that and grocery delivery I feel like there’s a lesson about timing & product in here somewhere.
And constant inversion of contrast...
Top-voted comment on that post raises some red flags.

Can Apple actually stop developers from sending a payment email to end-users? Would that even be legal, especially if the web-client is a cross-platform solution available on PC, mobile, etc?

That would be significant overreach, ripe for legal action, imo.
Meeting hosts can make a setting change that makes that link visible by default, so you don't have to cancel xdg-open twice (only once)
I appreciated the Windows Phone 7/8 and early Win10 approach to compact icons which was/is: Just have a button next to the icons that expands them to show labels when you press it. Unfortunately later redesigns to Win10 apps seemed to drift away from these patterns towards just having unlabeled icons everywhere.
李 is typically used as a surname. At least in Mandarin, there are other Chinese characters like 丽 (for females) and 力 (for males) that can be spelled Li/Lee, and also used as given names. For example:

Turkmenistan is a really interesting place to visit. I entered from the north on foot and caught a ride in a weird hippy van taxi instead of the 1km walk between the border checkpoints of Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan. If you are interested in atypical travel I definitely can recommend it.
Not the soundest legal principle.
Well someone's buying the more expensive stuff or Ikea would stop bothering.
Bad UX is not free at all.
I thought this too until I started buying the solid wood IKEA furniture. That stuff will be with me for a long long time.
I wrote a parser that needed it. But yeah for the most part whenever explicit lifetimes came into the picture it means that I have made some sort of mistake and need to rethink my approach.
Honestly I thought that was pretty well known already. I knew a girl in college about 20 years ago who had been on massive amounts of anti-biotics, and it ruined her stomach & digestive system in some way. At the time she was having to slowly build up "good" bacterial through some type of specialty yogurts (might just have been probiotics, which were not as prevalent then). It was a multi-year process though, and she couldn't eat a lot of types of food in the meantime.
For chaining hash tables like this you can use a linked list of buckets where each bucket allows multiple entries, and entries can be scanned with SIMD operations. The downside is it considerably complicates the insertion/update logic, so depending on the workload it may be a net performance loss. If the hash table is designed for concurrency the extra complexity can very likely lead to tricky to understand bugs or performance cliffs.
I once had to take antibiotics like crazy for a long time because I had some pain in the ass strep that wouldn’t go away. It was quite the experience.

Afterwards, my breath was bizarre smelling, I had these horrible sulphuric burps for months, and I couldn’t digest ANYTHING properly. It was misery. I had such painful gas from indigestion so frequently that eating totally lost its appeal.

This stacks up right in my experience. I stay far from antibiotics as a rule, but if you need them, you need them. I hope I never need them again.
I would had bought it, but no shipping to my country ️
Umm yes to all of the above with the exception of Google docs as Google already has my email address because I have a Google account since they have a bunch of services that I like. Every single Tom Dick and Harry with an app ain't getting my email address so they can sell it to ad companies to pad their profits.

Not to be brash but to you this is your dream and your vision but to me it's just an app and one I've no idea if I'm going to like. Stop making it hard to fall in love with your baby.
You have a car with a 200 mile battery. You have a minimum threshold that you'll pay any price for (say 80 miles), and if your a miser / want a deal / want a sale , you'll let your car be charged opportunistically when it's cheap for the rest of it.

If you know your going to be parked at the office for the most part for 8 hours a day, then you'd probably be ok putting your car in opportunistic mode as long as you have enough for your commute.

The car can also track your driving patterns and manage all of this seamlessly. Having worked at a gas station and seeing how people swarm my station when gas was $0.10/litre less than the surrounding stations because we didn't update fast enough, I think there will be plenty of price chasers for these modes.

The anxious / I drive for recreation types / road trippers can pay extra to stay topped up all the time.

Worth mentioning that the uninstaller sets the cookie by adapting your cookies file after reading contents of the file entirely unrelated to Zoom.

Ask HN: What would you miss about inner city if you move to suburban areas?
What are the things you'd miss about inner city if you move to suburban areas? It seems that a lot of people (me included) have moved to work 100% remotely for the longterm. I am planning to move to the suburbs because there is no reason to commute to work anymore now. I love the vibe in inner city and I don't know what I'd be missing on if I move. I thought it'd be interesting to hear from some of you who might have made the move.
When free speech turns into free hate, that’s when it’s unacceptable.
Usually this happens because the person who wrote the file or daemon didn't write the uninstaller and no one gives a hoot about it at review.

Without FB apps, Google apps and Uber/Lyft, iOS would be a worse graveyard than MacOS store is right now. People would easily move from iMessage to WhatsApp.

Heck, if Google and FB banded up right now to reject iOS out of the blue, iOS would fall into an unclimbable chasm. Of course, that won't happen though.
But Gitlab is its own walled garden (albeit an open-source one)

if it's open source then the garden is not walled -- by definition.

I'd keep music. Eating is a pleasure but living is more, to be in a even longer cycle of preparing food-cooking-digesting-spending the energy is boring.
Having to get into my car to do anything. Growing up in suburbia was a bore. Now, I can walk to restaurants, bars, parks. I would go places even less than I do now (which, granted, was fairly low pre-covid), since parking in popular areas is a pain.
Yes their MDF is terrible, but also their plastics are inferior polymers that don’t age well. Some metal furnishings are sheet metal thin and lack structural rigidity/strength as well.

Obviously they make compromises to meet a price point, so given the price points of these products I believe they well lean heavily to the Ikea quality rather than Legos quality.

I would almost say if people have kids it’s maybe an option since they’d grow out of it, but then engineered wood would have lots of chemicals in them.
I know personally I'd spend a lot less time on HN if C++ compiled quickly enough that I didn't have time to context switch to something else while waiting for it to compile.

Licensed sets saved them from bankruptcy, and now that they're healthily profitable again they've been releasing more "classic" sets like the Lego City, Lego Creator (and Creator Advanced), and Technics sets.

As someone who's been into Lego for life, and as a middle-aged parent who still regularly buys sets to build myself independent of the sets I buy for my kids, I'm more than happy for them to crank out the licensed sets (which I ignore) in exchange for them to still be here making those Creator/Technics ones for me.

What are the options in terms of space flight simulation with reasonably accurate physics? Looking to simulate and study lunar missions (NASA Artemis Program).

This requires being able to load 3D CAD models of spacecraft and landers. It also requires moon data with terrain height maps.

So far this seems to be one of the options (not sure it can do all of the above):

You are confusing energy with electricity. It's a common mistake and it's used by the "green" energy companies to paint a rosy but unrealistic picture of renewables. Why do you think california is having their issues.

Electricity is only a subset of our energy usage (around 20%) and out of that wind and solar is only a small part. Hydro is much bigger.
