From Wikipedia:

Électricité de France (EDF) – the country's main electricity generation and distribution company – manages the country's nuclear power plants. EDF is substantially owned by the French government, with around 85% of EDF shares in government hands. 78.9% of Areva shares are owned by the French public sector company CEA and are therefore in public ownership. EDF remains heavily in debt. Its profitability suffered during the recession which began in 2008. It made €3.9 billion in 2009, which fell to €1.02 billion in 2010, with provisions set aside amounting to €2.9 billion. The Nuclear industry has been accused of significant cost overruns and failing to cover the total costs of operation, including waste management and decommissioning.

Because you still have the current group of people dead against it, those with money paying higher taxes, who will fight against it. The real struggle is getting it through the first time.
Not sure why Maps shows no disruption. It didn't work at all when I was driving home earlier.
The pop is caffeine + sugar + flavor

So I'm replacing it with a caffeine pill and flavored water, to get the sugar calories out.

Then later I'll try to reduce the caffeine dose, and/or go to plain tap water.
> #2, I think you are wrong about their invincibility in this case. 330 people under 25 died of covid as of August 20 [0] (most with comorbidities), out of a population of 104 million in the U.S. [1], that is 1 out of 346,000 (edit). This is not high on the list of dangers for that age group.

And maybe a drunk driver really is invincible because he has a very safe car that will protect him in any accident. Does that mean he should be allowed to drive drunk?
AWS SNS is broken for 24 days
I'm surprised the opening paragraph, while cataloging asserted pre-Columbian transatlantic voyages, didn't mention the Roman ships and amphora found in Brazil. Last I heard the Brazilian government was stopping anyone from investigating those remains.
not sure how seriously to take the article given this mistake:
"... when the World War II Allied Nations, including the U.S., Canada, Western European nations, Australia and Japan, negotiated the rules of the international monetary system ..."
No, I really hope to find that some animals can do abstract thinking, and then build the bridges to communicate with them.
They tend to kill a lot of non-combatants treated as combatants when vaguely represented as pixels on a screen though...

Then they're pretty damn slow at making it, considering Stadia's first demo came out almost 2 years ago.
> A function does not spring into existence until the definition of the function is executed.

Methods and their type signatures do exist within the runtime as soon as the function expression is evaluated. To simplify the example from your article

julia> a = 20
20

julia> foo(x::(a < 10 ? Int : Float64)) = "thing"
foo (generic function with 1 method)

julia> methods(foo)
# 1 method for generic function "foo":
[1] foo(x::Float64) in Main at REPL[2]:1

Here you see that one method of the function foo has been defined, and the code in the type signature has already run, resulting in a method which takes x::Float64. After this point, changing the value of `a` will not change anything about foo.

> Just because the damage is visible after two weeks doesn't mean that it doesn't occur in quantities below that amount.

It's not like each dose does a certain amount of damage. If you don't cause an imbalance then it's harmless (as far as this mechanism goes).
It's not salt. It's ammonium chloride. It's really really good actually.
Any sort of emotion analysis is always a very slippery slope. A base of only 80 people doesn't feel like nearly enough, but seeing as it's research I'm curious to see how far this develops.
I think there are quite a few startup and freelancer visas that aren't all that hard to get access to. I guess I also should have specified how much capital, but I was thinking sub 100k euro. For instance there's the new Estonian digital nomad visa if you make 3k and change and work for a foreign (non Estonian) entity, Germany has their freelance visa that didn't seem all that hard to acquire from the folks I met who had it while I was in Berlin. Below is an article I found after a few minutes of Googling that outlines a few worldwide.

Ask HN: How is Amazon's Luna Game service allowed on iOS?
I know that apple recently banned stadia and microsoft xcloud from the app store as they allow access to games that apple cannot individually review. I wonder how Amazon Luna is going to get around this ban as they announced that Luna will have an IOS app. Do they have a deal with apple? Or are they going to put each game that you want to play through luna as its own individual app on the app store for apple to review?

Any Ideas?
On the one hand it shouldn't matter. The facts of the case are the facts of the case. If those facts warrant the death penalty then that should be the case regardless of the medium through which those facts are presented.

On the other hand, humans aren't rational and they might change their decision by seeing another human in person vs seeing them on a screen, even if the facts are the same.

Since it has the capability to affect the outcome, for fairness it should be the same for every case. Either do all cases over Zoom or none. Otherwise you might have some people arbitrarily assigned the death penalty when they might not have otherwise or vice versa.

The better solution would be to do away with the death penalty altogether since such a dire outcome shouldn't be implemented by an inherently flawed and fallible system.
What a scheme! Unfortunately, if that deal was being negotiated today I doubt the US would have the weight to get such a one-sided transaction done.
Stadia needs roughly 20mbps, which these days is fairly average for most places in the world. Actually data transfer can become an issue if you don't have unlimited data transfer and play more than a few hours a day. 720p is 4.5gb per hour, whereas 1080p is 9gb. 4K is even higher.

One of the weird things I’ve found traveling internationally is that salt & butter popcorn is apparently an American thing. In Asia and South America popcorn is almost always sweet. Salt & butter popcorn is one of those things you don’t realize how much you’ll miss it until you go to every market and movie theater in town and can’t find any popcorn that’s not sweet :-/

Presumably they were still trying to collaborate with people inside Google's walled garden of documents, calendar events and videoconferences.
sure the diehard conspiracy people can't be hlped even with that information, but there's a non-zero amount of people who will understand that they've read false information.

I don't really see the downside to correcting false information. If someone's too deep down the rabbit hole fine, but there are people who are not.
Yup Stadia did it first, it actually makes a significant difference because bluetooth is quite slow, which is also why you can't really use bluetooth headphones for gaming. It connects directly through wifi so you can quickly switch between PC, chromecast and android without connecting it to any individual device.
Or maybe they were just incredibly antisocial and felt compelled to leave by their desire to not live near other people. Such a seclusionist mindset might explain why they were there in the first place...
You are talking about a very minuscule population of the country benefiting from Reliance share prices. That is really the issue when monopolies such as Reliance arise. Reliance's monetary success and growth does not imply that India is doing well.

Case in point: Reliance is now completely debt free and has grown tremendously since 2014 - while the rest of India is now financially in much worse shape. India's debt has more than doubled in the meantime and the economy is in the pits..and that is before COVID even began.
Wow, I never knew that there was a medical diagnosis for being a night owl. Without external forces, my sleep schedule would naturally drift until I am going to bed ~4AM-6AM. Melatonin has been a great help in making sure I get enough sleep so I can work regular hours. Like you, I've found that a small dose is sufficient. I take a quarter of a 3mg pill.
I began building a proof of concept to print concrete in a sand matrix but never got that device working properly. It had a 6x6 array of 2“ square nozzles but I ran into problems with the mechanism to switch the nozzles between sand and concrete. I designed a second version that would have had better switching mechanism, but couldn't afford to build it.

Magpies (unrelated to European magpies) are similar in Australia. There are stories of multi-generational respect (that is, the parents teach the next generation not to swoop and annoy the nice human). Wikipedia says they can remember up to 100 people.

Here are a few nice stories:

Ask HN: How would you create YouTube that doesn't suck?
Youtube that doesn't allow anyone to take down any video unless it's straight up porn or promoting violence.

If it's a video of show, movie, etc then keep it unless it's in 1080p or higher and longer than 30 minute.

No DMCA, No banning, no bs.

It's more of a legal problem than a tech. If you were to design a company that didn't have to do anything youtube does and couldn't be blocked then what would you do?

Go host from another country, which?

Renounce citizenship?

I feel youtube is now all watered down version made for corporate TM, everyone else gets banned or demonitzed.
Trend of using Zoom/variants seems to be following the progression of any similar type of conduit where unfamiliar use case eventually becomes the norm. For example, when texting/SMS took off in early 2000s, boyfriends and girlfriends started calling quits to their relationship via text, followed by husbands and wives decision to divorce. I won’t be surprised if there’s an emoji for such references nowadays ️. Oh the humans! We’ve definitely done a lot of physical evolving since inception...but bulk of our social evolution has seemed to have happened over the past 100 years.
What you're pointing out is human culture, not the wits of human individuals. For the vast majority of human existence and for most humans alive today there is no such knowledge or practice.

I don't think this is a coincidence. Salt water, after all, is present in effectively unlimited quantities in many of the world's major cities. If the price of desalination drops, competition (in an imaginary world) will drive down the price of desalinated water in lockstep with it.

Interestingly, there is a theoretical floor to the amount of energy invested per unit of water desalinated, and we're apparently quite close to it. From here, our best hopes for improvement are to use waste heat or solar thermal energy to desalinate water.
Welcome to market segmentation, where the company takes a crowbar to your device based on how much you want to pay. This is the type of industrial process that ruins life for everyone.

Then again, that's the price you pay for proprietary drivers. I hate it, everyone else hates it, but if you can't get access to the schemata/docs you need to write the driver yourself, that's where you end up. Interesting question though: how much would they sell the documentation, hardware and no NDA for?

Bet they wouldn't, but it's an interesting question.
To me, a "right" should be considered on the basis of what it actually provides to people.

This might be an unpopular opinion that I hold as a non-american, but I don't really see "because it was decided so a long time ago" as particularly good reason to ordain something as a sacred right.

I'd be curious to know your take. Is it because you uphold that "decisions should be made based precedent" as being critical for stable society? Or do you consider the document to be literally sacred in its own right like the Ten Commandments or the Quran?
I am sure this is not the most important thing we can find to discuss relating to the featured article.
One of our GKE clusters has been stuck "upgrading" for 12 hours. Totally stalled, no way to cancel, and auto-scaling is non-functional. Support seems pretty stumped by the issue and they haven't updated us since about an hour after I reported, so I wonder if this is part of a bigger issue?
I've been using over-the-ear hearing aids for about 8 years and they have become a part of my life, like contact lenses. The technology has improved dramatically but it's simply not fun having something riding on your ear. They need adjustment throughout the day, and now that facemasks are a thing they're always getting snagged. And there are just some situations where they aren't ideal: many people talking at once in different parts of a room, or when there is any kind of heavy background noise (fire alarms, sirens, etc.).

That's why the neural implant that Musk recently demonstrated excites me to no end. Everything is inside the body, no need to amplify or filter anything, just interface directly with the nerves and compensate for the damage. I hope I don't have to wait more than ten years to get one.
It's the same thing. If we’re going to laud Iceland for being the settlement of a terra nullius, then clearly those Irish monks had claim to it, and the subsequent settlement of the Norse without their invitation represented encroachment on someone else’s land.
Yeah it's odd. I didn't like coffee much until I got a job stacking shelves as a teenager. I'd walk past the instant coffee section a lot. One day a customer bumped the display and a large jar smashed open on the floor. Cleaning it up and smelling it, I suddenly realised I now liked it.
That reminds me of the time I learned that dates are diuretic while in Morocco. They were so delicious I would eat a bag per day. Even while swearing I must have dysentery.

People seem to forget that the expected total death count from day 1 was, and still is, expected to be the same no matter what actions taken....And the entire point of lockdowns was to not overwhelm the hospitals all at once.

It's so frustrating watching Democrat leaders (Jill Hunsaker Ryan in this case) put plans into place that aren't backed by ACTUAL evidence, blame others when their plans end up not working, refuse to pivot upon receiving new information, refuse to acknowledge when previous data is found to be inaccurate....all while trampling on the constitutional rights of American citizens.
All sorts of livestock is used - not just cattle. Goat manure, for instance, is very good in some circumstances and is quite expensive.

As with everything, all things have to be done in moderation. A certain acreage of land can only support so many plants, animals and humans.

I was only countering the narrative that livestock=evil because it damages the environment based on one single parameter - methane emissions.. which is also something that is being addressed by different types of feeds etc.
I think more in line with reality is that we would be more likely and better off reading how to build such things. The knowledge already exists around us in our culture. I program every day but it's not because I'm some super animal genius who invented computers and programming and software design.
Is it possible to buy a single course, or only to subscribe to the whole platform?
Yes and yes. Saying otherwise would be like the foolish attitude “advertising doesn’t work on me.”

Everyone in developed nations buys tons of shit they don’t want, like or need, from sheer ad manipulation and repetition.

Tobacco companies literally employed chemistry PhDs to discover how to add ammonia to make uptake of nicotine more rapid, to literally physically addict you to their product.

Companies spend capital T Trillions a year on corporate research in branding, impulse packaging, habit formation, etc. etc.
It's things like this that keep me sane though: knowing that even huge companies go offline or break the back button.
Why are you advocating for a world where you’re never held to account for your misdeeds (so long as you can link them to some form of speech)? Why do you believe everyone should be required to tolerate you for being vile to others?
I see you don’t frequent the same coffee shops I do that operate with a hipsters sense of urgency
> Am I legally allowed to fork the project and use it commercially after leaving said employer?

Yes, but follow these limitations:

* Always keep your fork at least as open and free as the original license. The more restrictive the open source license you choose for your fork the less willing a business entity will want to entangle themselves with it. That is why I prefer these licenses for my personal projects: AGPLv3 and CC0.

* Never violate the terms of the original license.

* Don’t compete with your employer.
I wonder if this is this a generational thing or a personal preference. I too generally prefer text with in-browser code editors. I can search text. i can jump exactly to the part I want to reference later. etc...

But, AFAIK most people under 30? will chose a video on youtube over a text (webpage) based lesson at something like 10 to 1 or 20 to 1. Note: I'm pulling those numbers out of thin air, it's just my perception.

It's also possible this is a youtube thing. Click on a single video about how to code something and youtube will start recommending more videos on how to code where as search for how to code something and find an article and your next search will not be randomly recommending more code articles

Speaking of which, I think I would find this horrifying but what if google's search home page worked like youtube so that before you entered your search it showed 20 things it thought you might be interested in based on past search clicks. Scary but it might explain the difference.
Liquid melatonin is easier to get a ballpark dose in the 150-400ug range, since you can use single drops from the dropper.
I imagine that this is intentional on the part of the state and the media to deter criminality. If the public message is “crime doesn’t pay” that might deter opportunists.

If your livelihood relies on, say, gambling for 10 year olds, or rooting around in my personal information without my knowledge or meaningful consent, then I will be delighted for you to starve in a gutter.
I think it's good that people become aware of their dietary hypocrisy in their lives.

Not many animals are treated more cruelly than pigs raised for food consumption with the exception of chickens perhaps.

The problem is that culturally around the world, all kinds of animals end up on dinner plates that are unacceptable to other cultures.

There is no right or wrong. The only solution is compassion for other animals suffering, and then making a conscious choice.

If a person is really compassionate, they will not eat any animals. Until then, articles like this highlight the hypocrisy but that alone is not enough to enable change within human society on a whole.

BTW, it is established that we do not need to eat meat to survive. People choose to eat meat because they like the taste, not for any other reason.
It's always good to memorize at least one IP address! Very similar to memorizing at least one phone number in this day and age ;)
Those don't continue tasting good when you already have dangerous levels of them in your system.

So no it's not poisonous in the same way.
I would suggest that the hallucinations were simply a symptom of your sleep deprivation. I've experienced the same after a similar amount of time awake coding.
Maybe it was 'trespassing' I suppose. I don't know much about this subject but from what's been described in this thread, assuming there must have been violence seems like a leap.
Of course they can fire you. They cannot force you to pay up your full mortgage tomorrow or be evicted.
I like that better. It’s a pain in the ass waking up and not knowing what’s really gonna happen for the day until your standup meeting.
