It is amazing to find pockets where General Relativity has not penetrated at all.

It will certainly take >100 years for the people left behind. On board it could take time anywhere between infinity and zero. Too long, though, and they wouldn't go.
The parent comment is right. It's not just the spark; heat and pressure are also part of what ignites your air/fuel mixture.
"Having a job is not an ideal. In fact, having a job is a severe attack on human rights and human dignity.... Having a job means placing yourself under the control of an autocratic ruler for most of your waking life. An autocratic ruler has the kind of control over you that Stalin never dreamt of...." - Chomsky (recent) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lcDT_-3v2k (31:40)
I can give you very little advice. My first job out of college was in embedded systems, and I've spent most of my career there. I never had to figure out how to switch into it.

I'm sure there must be some leet-code-ish thing that gives embedded puzzles, about writing to hardware registers, and bit flipping, and race conditions between threads. But I don't know where it is, so I can't point you to anything.

If you want to get better at C++, you might start with Stroustrup's Tour. For C, I don't know what to say. You might also consider Rust, though I don't know if it has much traction in embedded yet.
Although stations buy from a lot of suppliers so how could you even know?

Add to that the fact that biology is mindbogglingly complicated. Different genetics, epigenetics, microbiome, food supplier, or other environmental factors could cause completely different effects with the same exact intervention. It's hard or impossible to isolate individual effects in such a large multivariate system with very nonlinear interactions.

I think there were cars in the past, say the lime green 1970s Dodge Challenger, where the distinct color was part of the entire package and not simply a add-on.

I don't think that kind of package is as common - possibly because present days cars have substantial selling points.

As a high schooler and Stereophile subscriber at the time this article was published I was a big fan of Mr. Carver's work, though I never got to own one of the products. A nearby hi-fi store would indulge me and let me listen to the Carver Amazing Loudspeaker, which I coveted ever since.
> what a minimum wage actually does is remove the possibility for anyone to work below an arbitrary number of dollars.

It should be paired with a federal jobs guarantee and universal healthcare then.
Any truth to the rumor that you should avoid filling your car when the main station tank is getting refilled? Think the logic was that their refilling would stir up sediment and potentially damage your car’s engine.
Having done a lot of traveling along with a lot of reading (often at the same time), just reading about a place is a good start, but there's no substitute for actually going there, meeting real people, eating the food, dealing with public transportation and the weather, experiencing all the tiny inconveniences and innovations that shape life. It broadens your worldview, confirming beyond a doubt that the way things are done in your town is neither the only nor the best way, just one of many, and that the people who live "over there" are in fact people, not just statistics.

I agree that the environmental impact is a big problem. But perhaps if more people traveled, we would be more likely to get the kind of international cooperation we need to tackle climate change systemically.
If you eat exactly 100g of refined sugar then your body can extract at most 400 calories. If you then burn 500, that 100 calorie difference must come from your body. That's all it means.

Finding how many calories your body needs right now to maintain weight is another issue entirely, and one which involves estimation and uncertainties.

If you find you're not losing weight while hitting your target value, well then it's simple[1]: your target value is wrong and needs to be lowered.

[1]: Assuming your doc verified you're not gaining weight due to water retention or similar.
I have done a TRE based diet twice, with success. The first time was Keto+OMAD, after reading Michael Mosley's Fast 800 book (which advocates a less restrictive diet but in the same vein). Result: -8 kg in 8 weeks. Also my weight was mostly stable after that, eventually trending up as my discipline waned. I have also seen up close two people suffering type 2 diabetes get it under control with the rapid weight loss afforded by this method.

Now, a year later, I am doing 8 hour eating window (not Keto) and am sticking to it for the long-term. I simply don't enjoy breakfast. Never have really. Not eating it appears to give me more stable energy and concentration for both intellectual and physical tasks, both before and after "lunch": a raw oats & berries breakfast anywhere between midday and 4 PM depending. I also run 5 km every second day, heavy weights once a week. Reuslt: -0.75 kg/week averaged over many months. Now my weight is somewhat stable at a healthy weight.

I wholly accept that this is most likely de-facto calorie restriction and not the wonders of TRE per se. Early in Fast 800 Dr Mosley addresses diet adherence and it is widely believed that this is the single biggest factor impacting diet for weight (fat) loss success.

With respect to cellular regeneration, I like the story but the only sources I've found (and they're not scientific so do your own searching) is that this process starts at about 16 hours of fasting. It really peaks around 3-4 days of fasting, which is a whole different thing. I have started doing occasional 2 day fasts and want to say it's do-able by normal people, but so far it appears TRE won't get you anything like it.
Your worldview is the result of the model you use to interpret the world.
Can you very easily consume more than a days worth of calories in a lot less than 6 hours eating uncooked leafy greens?

Or to make it easier how about eggs, let's say 2500 calories at ~80 calories per egg, you just need to down ~32 eggs in a few hours, maybe 10 eggs an hour?

Calling something near physically impossible "an abstraction" seems a bit oversimplified, perhaps?
You say "greige-ification" while Polish architecture and design communities lament the pasteloza ("pastelosis") trend. It came to be when existing commie blocks were thermally insulated with styrofoam and their façades painted with pastel colors in 2000's and 2010's.
You can't please everyone, I guess...
Although some of the designs created in response to "pasteloza" use bright colors sparingly, so there's that.
I believe the opt-in support only works if you use yarn, is that right? I didn't think npm supported resolutions.
It was a new minor version, of a totally different package, which was version-tagged in such a way that some distro packagers picked it up when they shouldn't have, and which happened to contain a bug affecting a use case that's been deprecated for at least half a decade now.

Look, I get that there's a lot of hate for modern JS, and it's hardly as if there is any lack of basis for criticism, just as there is with every other highly active, heavily adopted, and fast-evolving software ecosystem. But mistaking this kind of uninformed slagging for meaningful commentary says more about the person who does it than about the subject of their ire.
You can sometimes buy the additives separately. e.g. for Techron: https://amzn.to/33LH1RN

If you want the cleaning additives you can just buy them separately and pour them in, i.e. Chevron Techron.

Yarn also gives much cleaner output. NPM is extremely verbose, but it seems that "verbosity" doesn't really confer any benefit. And yarn is also generally much faster.

Slightly off-topic, but I really like the layout and feel of your website. I find the fonts and colours to be quite pleasing, and the site loads incredibly quickly.
I think both have their place.

I like using guard clause style for functions which are mostly pure/functional, and one exit at the bottom style for functions that are mostly impure/procedural.
All I want is a non-glossy-teal or non-glossy-space-purple though. Currently have a white and black car (Citroen C4 Cactus, white main color, black accents).

I don't know, I somehow don't like glossy colors for some reason. Also it eats into Raytracing performance for no reason.
I'm guessing it is more to do with depression, as there seem to be a lot of studies related to depression posted here. Perhaps a lot of developers are stressed and depressed.
Deep Learning for NLP: Stanford Course (My Notes on the Free Lectures)
Very true, I'd only ever seen the surname until today (TIL)
Part of the problem is that math and statistics are poorly taught most of the time. Textbooks will skip crucial steps in their proofs. Math professors will be too lazy to update their course notes based on frustrated student feedback. Courses will lack tutorials and other ways to discuss problems. I shouldn't have any reason to be watching youtube videos or khan academy to fill the gaps. But me, and thousands of others, are forced to do exactly that.
Try going to Korea... you will have a difficult time finding anything other than Black, White, or Grey/Silver! It's easily over 90%.

To comment on "Where do people like network engineers learn how to configure Cisco routers and use whatever config software they use? Where do sysadmins learn Bash, Unix, backup management etc?" - they certainly can do at university courses.

Just as universities offer study programs and degrees in software engineering, there are also programs and degrees for network engineering, which would include not only the theoretical basis of networking but university courses for applied networking where they would learn all that you describe and much more; a university teaches a network engineer to configure routers and manage backups just as they teach a first year electronics engineer to solder stuff. Sure, a generic computer science or software engineering program will not include these courses, that's a usually a separate specialization, but universities definitely do offer engineering programs.
Deno does away with most of the tooling configuration. You get linter, bundler, docs generator, formatter, watcher, version manager, std library, inbuilt tests, and many things that you would otherwise source from third parties in node ecosystem.

How do you eat a stick of butter daily?

I lean toward either butter or tallow as a cooking oil, but outside of directly eating a stick I can’t imagine using an entire one to cook a meal per person.

To be fair, Telegram is a total nightmare. It's like bitcoin or Tor and dark web, it may facilitate anonymous free speech, but in doing so, it facilitates a helluva lot of crime.

So what? Freedom of speech isn't meant to be just free speech as long as it's approved by some government.

>There has to be limits on freedom, you can't just be allowed to post bomb making plans on the internet or yelling fire in a crowded theatre

One of those things is not like the other.

From an ethical standpoint, the only limits on freedom should be those that infringe on the rights of others.

As in, "Your right to swing your fist ends where my nose begins."

It is truly amazing what total nonsense people will believe in order to justify laws (or really anything else which in their view needs justifying). You can literally drive around 48 states and see that this never happens. It's not a thing. The Mythbusters even did an episode on it years ago and they decided it's not a thing; they were simply unable to get fumes to combust using static electricity, let alone cell phones.
I just returned a Helix because of lackluster... everything. I'll try modelers again in a few years. I think of tube amps a lot like I think about Vim.

Israeli almond production requires 1/20th the water used in California. Their big secret? A pipe inserted to 3 feet of depth, next to each tree, and watering into the pipe instead of spraying it on the ground.

Almond production does not require a lot of water. California almond growers use a lot of water because they're allowed to get away with it.
Honestly, if your day job hasn't forced you into using a bundler, I'd recommend avoiding it if you can. For modularity, I start with native ES modules. If things got complicated enough that I thought a bundler would offer me some sort of a benefit, I'd reach for rollup first.
Your car’s manual will say.
I was once told by an electrical engineer that the whole ban on using a cell phone near a pump was due to potential interference with how the dispenser tracks how much you have pumped.

Is there any truth this?
Depends on how you define it. A “publisher” should pay its content producers, so YouTube would be. Nothing else Google or FB do though.
Price and weight are close. About $2500. AxeFx III is about ~6.8 Kg. Between a half and a third of a Plexi head or an AC-30 Head.

For a stadium band. It makes the stage setup much easier. No cabinets, mics and low stage volume. Each member gets a rack with two units (backup) and you are done. Sound will be always the same. Less likely to fail.

For a small band, you don't need the bulky rack editions. You get the same sound quality in pedal form (Helix, FM-3, etc). It can be carried in a bag.

In both cases, the sound engineer has an easier job. You plug your devices directly to the mixer/Front of House.

Most musicians program few pre-defined rigs, but a device like this gives you not only one sound, but the sound of ~300 amplifier models including some rare collection items.
This reads like a rationalisation to me. I would guess that the forces that beat the US in Vietnam, the North Vietnamese & the Viet Cong, were far more parsimonious in their resource use and put effort into extracting their equipment.

Of course, in the Vietnam War, the corporations back in the US who were making huge profits in supplying the war weren't at all worried about equipment being wasted overseas and not returned. And so we're back at the US military industrial complex and all of its unethical madness, famously satirised by Heller in Catch-22.
Are we sure he didn't mean "cret" ?
Those are valid points. However, immunization has virtually eradicated entire families of diseases with serious, life-altering side effects. I would argue that the short-term benefits outweigh the potential long-term consequences in this case, especially if we continue to vaccinate children against these diseases.

That being said, I think it's far more likely that genetic conditions and predispositions to disease will be resolved through genetic engineering, not natural selection.
Doppler ultrasound can be used to measure blood flow; I've seen it used in prenatal scans to check for heart defects. I'd think it would be straightforward to use it to locate arteries in the forearm.
Judges are better trained to know when their biases are, in fact, biases, and to set them aside as best as they can. Not all do that to the best of their ability, and there's residual bias even with those that do. But, statistically speaking, if you're facing charges in US, and you're innocent, it's better to go with a judge than with a jury. And conversely, if you actually did it, you have better chances convincing the jury that you didn't, or that you deserve a more lenient sentence.
Some states have different levels. In Colorado 85 is common. I assume it has something to do with the air pressure and oxygen content of the air perhaps?
It's specifically the frontend ecosystem. A problem caused by the numerous languages, assets, and formats that have to come together, the lack of JS standard library, poor module system, and the disaster of browser compatibility mixed with transpilers, polyfills.

Webpack has already had zero/very-little config required by default. That's what most should use, and that's if you even need to use Webpack directly. Otherwise I recommend sticking to the major site frameworks like Next/Nuxt/Gatsby and let those do all the config wiring for you.
Have hope: The innovation that is quickly changing this, are wraps.

Full vehicle wraps are incredible. You can get damn near any color you want, get stripes or other designs if you please, all while protecting the real paint underneath for future resale value, like a miracle from God.

It makes sense then to buy some neutral color like black or white, and wrap up a vehicle later in a color you really want. You could even change colors later.

The only reason it’s not more common yet is the price, costing about $2k-$3k to wrap a whole vehicle, but the effects of competition and capitalism will eventually bring that down for the masses, until wrapping a vehicle costs little more than applying window tints.

Soon enough, exotic, bombastic, offensive colors will be common in our streets. There has never been a more exciting time for the automobile.
I was on h1b and know a dozen or more people who were/are on one. Your comment is pure fud
Genuinely curious, at what point does it become worthwhile to try to create a “new HackerNews”? I myself am still figuring out how to be an adult so I don’t feel that I have much insight to give on this. I’m wondering what any remaining older HN users might think about preserving what’s left (if that makes sense).
Started my first React Native app some time ago and I can totally confirm that. It feels like a jungle of very fragile dependencies and mechanisms between code and output.
No, Searle's main response to the system response was to just dismiss it out of hand (at least in the responses from him that I read). Dennett was probably (for me) the most articulate of the "system responders" and I think Searle considered his POV to be a joke, more or less.
Sure, that should refer to the lifetime cost, not per year. That's the cost when you cover the yearly cost over the span of the desired lifetime, which is what's relevant when you're comparing short lives systems vs. long lived systems.
Lol. I figured that's the only series that deals with ansible communication. Guess not.
Not really. “Basic programming” - like little helper methods for linked lists or array & tree manipulation, algorithms like sorting or hash table implementations - is an activity that professional programmers do slowly and methodically, with the benefit of whatever references they want, and with no short term time pressure or anyone actively surveilling every part of their intermediate problem solving approach, and with no requirement to also simultaneously verbalize all those choices in a way that seems to meet the social expectations of a complete stranger who is evaluating you on murky criteria.

It’s truly, truly nothing at all similar to the actual activity of “basic programming.” Highly skilled people will get flustered, forget basic facts, put their foot in their mouth, none of which has anything to do with whether they are skilled or unskilled at coding.

Why is the answer higher wage requirements and not just removing artificial restrictions that prevent employers from hiring qualified employees from abroad? If you want standards, set them and remove quotas.

Haha thank you for this.
Well, I (and many others) think that making the courts the sole venue for resolving these disputes is not necessarily better. Getting rid of mandatory arbitration means that only large cases (with lawyers on contingency) and class-actions (where the lawyers are the only ones who benefit) will go forward. Mandatory arbitration is the best venue for medium-sized individual (settlement/judgement) cases, and courts are not viable for them.

I see mandatory arbitration as a trade-off, and would simply prefer that people take that kind of clause into account when they transact with others.
