And how are males not getting massively fat due to processed foods and the significant pressure of soybean oil and products based on soybean oil and other processed foods rich in xenoestrogens from factory foods? Yet you’re pointing to “beer” as if it some key ingredient. Does the introduction of beer somehow correlate with the collapse of male fertility rates? Or does the introduction of vegetable based factory foods correlate with the crash of male fertility?

It makes me sad that we were about the evidence before but seeding the desired answers now.
There’s more than just increasing capacity to address the range issue. Further, two digits of difference will be overcome sooner or later.

You can write safe memory management libraries in userspace with the existing extension. That can help reduce GC pressure by moving data off-heap and allow for safer & more efficient FFI bindings.

As someone who has been exploring doing gamedev in Haskell, that all is very exciting and the use-cases are constantly obvious to me.

It is entirely up to userspace to leverage this new feature. It doesn't do anything on its own outside of the type-checker. And to use it, your library will probably have to do some unsafe coercion under the hood (just like ST uses unsafePerformIO under the hood to do pure mutability.)
So credit in this case would just be a way for a third party to benefit from the disparity without altering the situation much. That doesn't sound very useful to me.
1K is not absolute zero, 0K is. 420K is 150°C, barely above boiling.

In space, your temperature may range from 0.01K to over 2000K depending on solar radiation levels over the spectrum.

You're exposed to higher levels of radiation and vacuum will tear at organic structures.

A tradigrade can probably survive a trip to mars if they're very lucky. Better to send a huge amount of them, maybe one makes it.

But interstellar distances are too vast and the time taken is too long. The DNA within tradigrades, even when hibernating, will have been torn to shreds and with no energy to repair there is no way back to life from that.

I will quote form the article:

> Back on Earth, over 68% of the subjects protected from solar UV radiation were reanimated within 30 minutes following rehydration, although subsequent mortality was high; many of these produced viable embryos.

And that is after 10 days of exposure. If it was 400 years, it's unlikely that even 1 is able to reanimate.

The hydrates species fared much worse and hydrated is more likely the state of the tardigrade when they are blown into space, rather than carefully dehydrated.

I'm really glad that other people feel that permissions over-reach is a problem.

Specifically in the case of Tridactyl, as an interface to the entire webbrowser is needs access to the entire web browser. It does manage bookmarks, it does modify webpages (by adding link hints).

Yes. After establishing 5 year experiments have decent results, it makes the most sense to move to lifelong experiments. 1000 people at $1000/month for life could probably be funded with around $1B. A lot, but not an insane amount. Even a motivated billionaire could swing that without much trouble, and that would give us pretty good answers for the microeconomic effects of a UBI.
The languages I speak have pretty big differences between the formal and the actually spoken language, so watching the news in them has never been that helpful, because I pretty much never need to speak the language spoken by newscasters. My problem is also just that I need to keep up my exposure to the language so that I don’t forget, which requires a bit less effort than the OP went to.
I hesitated long to make qutebrowser my main browser because of lacking password management and device synchronization. Eventually I switched and started using dedicated applications for these tasks.

Qutebrowser is especially great for browsing documentation while coding. Besides it's main point of being keyboard driven, the lack of plugins makes it also absolutely distraction free.

It wouldn't plateau because you get throttled across the board over all your posts and significantly so. Your posts, old and new, simply don't get promoted into timelines anymore.

As a result, your traffic from FB will rapidly drop until you pay them off, that's just business if you want to spread on FB.
In my experience, when people are ready to pay for something, you might as well just sell it. Giving it free sometimes adds doubts - will it be maintained? Is it an experiment? Is it a budget version of what you promised? Will they "owe" you one?

I'm happy to just pay for things because it "closes" a transaction. Where I live, we even have this tradition that the buyer says "I agree to buy" and the seller says "I agree to sell". A receipt is an abstraction of this process, but here, it's normal for someone to respond "I buy" when emailed a reciept.
Henning Mankell's Wallander books are just great. Made into a fantastic series starring Kenneth Branagh. I also enjoy Arnaldur Indridasson (Iceland) though many might find them a bit too slow and introspective.
This sounds very much like the boomer-tinfoil version of what's going on, especially with that nice classic aggressive ending sentence.
My main takeaway is that the HN system mostly works. You get some minor improvements by choosing the time well.

If I wanted to game HN, I see 2 suggestions:

* You can create upvotes from fake accounts. I'd assume the moderators to notice this very quickly.

* You can find a group of people with 10k karma and ask them how to optimize your content to be more HN friendly a.k.a. interesting. Then everybody wins, so I suppose I can live with it.

True, but to be fair, the same mechanism also blocks thieves from using and/or selling stolen Macs.
The number of people willing to insist that phytoestrogens and other xenoestrogens aren’t related to why male fertility rates are quite really crashing is truly sad. You aren’t interested in an open discussion of the issues. You just want to shut down any perspective that implicates your chosen lifestyle as to why processed foods, plastics, and phytoestrogens and
other xenoestrogens are causing these issues. Yet like some of the impacts of the obesity crisis you blame “beer” as if people are suddenly doing this to themselves. This is massive blame shifting. Ask people why they are exercising enough to blame them for McDonalds while you’re at it.
It’s customary, that’s why >99.99% of people do it. They don’t stop and think about it, or they would realise that it was typically a bad idea.

I would much rather have your custom font and then sans-serif, with nothing in between. Let me use your web font, or use my sans-serif, which is probably one of the fonts you listed in your fallback order anyway, but this way if I’ve expressed my own preference (I have) then these other Helveticas and Arials don’t get in the way.

The real problem with the fallback stack is that there’s no way of adjusting things depending on the font used. Perhaps web font A is about 10% larger than system font B, you really want to be able to say “bump the font size and line height by 10% if you have to fall back to B”; but you can’t.

So for simple fallbacks (of the “if this font is unavailable” type, rather than the “if this glyph is unavailable in this font” type), the main reason to add fonts between your font and serif/sans-serif is to match sizes better.

Then in the case of monospace, the problem is that some (most?) platforms have a default that most find ugly (e.g. Courier New), so I can more readily understand people preferring to opt into prettier fonts offered by the platforms, even if I wish they wouldn’t do it.
Another open-source alternative to Airtable is Baserow. Looks like it's a bit more basic than Firetable, but they have a good road map posted on their website.
Neither is perfect but we can easily see that private competition works better by far by comparing the results: all the modern life products and services vs the mess that governments and governmental services are in various parts of the world.

Exactly. This would "in theory" allow Doom to be running outside of the "prescribed parameters".

Fair enough, but the problem is mainly when you are in a third world country and parts are very difficult to get, and where Mac stores are non-existent.
The proposal discusses this briefly[1]. The idea seems to be that datatypes themselves remain identical (constructors being linear by default, even with -XNoLinearTypes), but functions are allowed to have more precise signatures.

edit: I'm not knowledgeable enough about this stuff to know if the idea is to just refine the type signature but keep implementations identical, or whether implementations themselves need to change.

Even if you're not a religious person, a lot of effort have been put into writing and preserving them. They were all done from a time when the written word was expensive and rare, and words of gods could not be amended or revised in a future version.

There's something sacred in preserving exact words of something over thousands of years, through many languages.

Even more people consider Google and FB useful and valuable and gladly (and voluntarily) use their services. Otherwise those "terrible companies" wouldn't be so big anymore.

Please give more information as to why factory foods created with vegetables aren’t similar between margins, trans fats, and other vegetable based foods and literally killed millions of people... but this time the vegetable based replacements are different...
Very good article, did not expect.
FWIW there are userscripts to integrate password management with qutebrowser: https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/tree/master/misc/...

What are you using for device synchronization? Something like Syncthing/Nextcloud?
I've a similar collection of "functions", but I implemented them just as plain bash/sh scripts in my ~/bin. I think putting your functions into regular executables on the path would have been more portable. That way you wouldn't need to call them from a fish shell to run them (you can still use fish scripting language if you like).
Using Boot Camp or a Hackintosh to be able to do that on the same computer? Might help to make the distinction between it overperforming via Boot Camp or underperforming on a Hackintosh.

People new to HN need to be introduced to the culture here without being deterred entirely from commenting again in the future. This way, others can engage the new user on the merit of their ideas (right or wrong) rather than on their tone.

Generosity notwithstanding, the comment did contain a grain of truth (heh) in that a good strategy for cutting through the contradictory tendency of dietary science is focusing on what works for many people in practice. (At least, that's what I remember; it's flagged now so I can't read it anymore.)
But you're making yourself the arbiter of what can and cannot be debated, which is intolerable, as such a person automatically wins any 'debate' they feel strongly about. You say you support shutting down debate "in certain cases" but the moment you go there, you're always going to get strong pushback.

Imagine if Trump announced tomorrow that debates on workers rights were off-limits because they were a threat to the very existence of job creators. And then he tried to even make it illegal, to create a culture where anyone who talked about unions positively was immediately fired? Would the left recognise that as a legit strategy and go, oh ok, I guess if he says shutting down debate in that case is legitimate then it must be?

Of course not. You may not rule your pet topics off-limits for debate. Ever. On anything. Countries that try that in even mild ways have endless problems, though they may not immediately become apparent.

debating the rights of disenfranchised people

Look, I am an immigrant. I have been for 15 years. And I know that until I become a citizen I am a guest. Not a "disenfranchised person", a guest in another people's homeland. Until they make me one of them via citizenship, I have to respect that and act like a guest.

Your (genuinely) devil's advocacy on immigration is that there should be no limits on it, at all. This has become a common theme on the modern left, but why? It's the same as arguing that if a guest is invited into someone's home, then they can immediately turn around and invite whoever else they like to stay in that home as well, whilst expecting the hosts to accomodate everyone without limit. It's not physically or financially possible but it's also morally wrong and a bizarre attack on the very notion of guesthood.

If your stance is really brutal you shouldn’t be surprised if some people—who may have their or loved once lives threatened by that stance—want to “cancel you”.

But nobody is having the lives of their loved ones "threatened" by any of the stances you outlined, which is why people react so badly to this kind of rhetoric. Not being invited to live in a new place is not a "threat", it's not even taking any action at all - it is passive. And for those who ignored the laws and principles of immigration, being deported is only a "threat" in the same sense that society saying you will go to prison for fraud is a "threat" - we use different languages for the consequences of lawbreaking because of the different context in which such "threats" happen.
Step 1: Make in-app payments API mandatory for Google Play

Step 2: Apply the 30% charge to everyone, including subscription services

Step 3: Mandate the same for the Chrome browser? (i.e. everyone who uses Netflix on Chrome, would have to use Google payments API and pay Google the commission for the "privilege")

Monopolies act so predictably, it's not even funny. The moment they think they have a majority of users locked-in, that's when "cashing in" happens.

This is why it's never a good idea to allow this to happen in the first place, both at the user/consumer level, as well as at the government level. Measures should be taken to prevent this situation from even being possible.
I know it's anecdata, but in my brand new Bosch dishwasher the "EU" mode is clearly the selected by default ECO mode - and yeah, it takes 3.5 hours, but it uses about 1kWh of energy and only 9 litres of water. And I have never, not even once, had it not clean something perfectly. And I've been using it on burnt oven trays and dishes stained with egg or cheese based meals - it's perfect every time. If I do need dishes back quickly, then I just press "VarioSpeed" and the same program is done in an hour - with the same results.

It must be a quality thing I guess? Cheaper/worse dishwasher will never clean dishes as well as a better one without using least efficient programs.

And what's wrong with vacuums? I got the good old Henry hoover(if you're in UK you might know the brand) just a year ago and it's as good as ever.

Yup - note the built-in adblocker is very basic at the moment (just a list of blocked hosts which doesn't block e.g. YouTube ads or ads served from the main domain of a page).

Conveniently omits any mention of hardware initialization and related fallouts in HVM.

Find it easy? Try to push all components -- interconnect, DDR and flash controllers, accelerators, etc -- to max performance and get the phone ready to hear from the factory about how the boards fail testing.

Not all of the SoC blocks may be reconfigured later after the boot completed, some have to be done right in the very early stages of it.
My Father Firmly Believes the Earth Is Flat, How to Help
It was implied that phytoestrogens from soy affect fertility when most of phytoestrogens consumed come from beer. Phytoestrogens do not have any significant effect on male hormones. Getting fat because one eats too much of food is the main reason.

I was just about to comment with the suggestion of adding a low pass filter for nyquist transformation, but reddit beat me to it!

Still amazing that it's a self-contained audio device, no actual addressing or protocol needed. It would be interesting if (as the author thinks) these were custom ASICs with built in songs from the factory, or some combination of EEPROM and decoder/driver chip. Does anyone remember what they sold for way back?
Could you ask someone to make a video of you while you are using this setup? Like a friend/family member in your room holding a phone? I would like to show an older piano teacher this setup.
I'm not sure if the option is worth the increased cost either, but at a glance it seems convoluted. Why is the employer even involved? Is there a reason private companies could not utilize the economy of scale and provide solutions? Why did this become a threesome? Insurance should be between me and my insurer.
The Indian government is answerable to the people, Amnesty International is answerable to the government, the courts and perhaps its "donors".

There is a robust system for the former, not so much for the later. AI can complain all it wants but they are just bringing in more scrutiny into their activities.
Yeah, we've seen the remarkable result of elections with Putin, Venezuela, China and now Trump.

Meanwhile unregulated fields like software, computers and communication have enjoyed the fastest and most remarkable progress in modern history. Progress which benefits us all every day.
These are interesting points.

>There's a possibility the programmer who did the masters was simply unable to get a job after his BSc.

Yeah, that would skew the data completely. Especially if you don't stratify by institution.

>You can't expect college hires to be productive on day one.

To be clear, I don't disagree with this, I'm just looking at it from the persective of employers. Why hire them if you need to retain them for a year or two before they're worth the salary? You need to pump money into them that whole time? Just hire people with experience to begin with.

But like, that's also where this debate normally goes and I think it's the less important point: the bigger issue is the credential is not preparing graduates properly. People should be angry about that, and demand it changes. They should be told that up front, before they purchase.

>the best engineers simply disappear. FAANGs hire them and they basically never actively look for a job after that

This is interesting. I hadn't thought about it in these terms.

Besides potentially enabling new types of APIs, I simply like that this extension lets you write more precise type signatures. A function with type [a] %1 -> [a] can do less things that a function with type [a] -> [a].

I'm still not sure what exactly Privacy Badger really does under the hood, but I suspect much of it won't be possible with QtWebEngine's API.

Not sure about Cookie Auto Delete - I fear it's not possible to implement either, but I'm not entirely sure, I've always found the QtWebEngine cookie APIs quite confusing so I'd need to take a closer look.

I have the exact opposite experience. Got the Bosch Series 6 dishwasher few months ago and it's the best dishwasher I've ever had. Everything is always perfectly clean no matter which program I pick, and if you select "Extra Dry" then everything is actually dry - apparently it's the moisture absorbing zeolite that they are using.
A lower bitrate (=better quality assuming constant file size) requires your encoder to work harder. If anything you want to use faster settings with higher bitrates (=lower quality). Some encoders let you cap the bitrate but what this does is basically ruin video quality in scenes where the bitrate cap has been exceeded, it doesn't actually make it less CPU intensive.
What's jet dry? Literally never heard about the term.
I Built a Tool to Monitor San Francisco Air Quality and Alert Any Changes
So, I'm a physicist, and I went to a number of talks from people involved with the JET fusion reactor over the years, though fusion is not my area. And my understanding is not that it's difficult to make plasma, or even build a reactor in particular that is the main problem (though instabilities can be problematic), but it's that the internal structure degrades very rapidly and becomes highly radioactive, because you get helium bubbles forming inside the steel which causes fractures and the heavy metals that are often put into steel to increase strength are highly fissionable. So you need to use special types of steel to actually construct the reactor, and these need to have a lifetime that's ~5 years+ and it needs to not have very very radioactive steel at the end of it's usable life. And this is basically an unsolved materials science problem at the moment. So while you might even be able to build a fusion reactor, it's not going to last long enough to make it commercially viable using current technology.
