Yeah, EVH was majestic and a true sonic innovator! Unlike 99% of other shredders he had a tremendous grasp of pop songcraft, natural showmanship and a sense of musical humor...plus you'd see as many females as dudes at a VH concert! So many Eddie solos are chock full of "Sounds great, ooh where the hell did that left turn come from?! Even better!!" moments. And of course - brilliant rhythm playing with that rich, aggressive tone. RIP Maestro!
I care about your opinion. Deeply. Please reconsider.
> As you continue programming in a given language, you automatically memorize low-level things like syntax and idioms.

I thought so too. Then I ended up with having to write a lot of tSQL. And even though I used them quite regularly, I always had to look up the syntax for things like MERGE, or PIVOT. So I made flashcards, and it has increased my productivity enormously. Not so much because looking up the syntaxes took particular much time, but it always interrupted my train of thoughts. And before I know the syntax by heart I always felt this slight resistance to use these constructs because I knew I had to look them up and would probably make some small mistake somewhere et c.

I'm really glad there are still companies with such values. For some strange reason, these days people equate innovation with using fancy/barely tested tools.
Exactly. This is the equivalent of "Thank God" after a doctor saves a patient, instead of thanking the doctor.

> Does anyone have experience with big industrial dishwashers?

Yes, they're a mainstay for high traffic kitchens. And while the allure of having your dishes pressure washed in 1-3 min cycles sounds cool its actually a much bigger PITA than you can imagine as the maintenance costs on those things is pretty high. In my experience most kitchens don't actually own them, they rent them with a maintenance and supply cost attached to them, which get very costly.

We had to double the capacity of ours in my last kitchen, the problems was that this double sized machine had lots of downtime as the sensors were not reading the cycles correctly, it would randomly shutdown or just freeze, which would create pauses in the middle of service, and this was an old part of town (150 years old?) with tons of other restaurants so the plumbing was less than ideal which created an issue with backups and sudden floods of waste water coming from the machine into the kitchen.

So unless you're regularly hosting banquets in your home and have issues with limited pans, cutlery and flatware I can't see this making any sense and is incredible overkill. The company might love you for the low costs they'll incur, though.

I will say this: after having spent time working in kitchens I really hate doing dishes at home now by hand. But that could be easily solved with just having a domestic sized dishwasher machine and increase my flatware and utensils. Even a high pressure sprayer attachment to a deep sink would make a much bigger improvement and likely save on water as You could just compartmentalize the process.

>i didn't know that. what does that mean for the fate of this bill?

IIUC, for this particular bill[0], the next step in the Senate is to debate it on the floor and then vote on it.

The companion House bill[1] has been introduced, but has not gone through committee or been voted upon.

The Senate would need to pass the bill. Then, separately, the House would need to pass their bill.

Then, the House and Senate would reconcile their two bills, and the resulting compromise bill would once again need be voted upon and passed by each chamber.

Assuming that happens, the President would need to sign it before it becomes law.

Most Americans (I hope) could tell you that. The links below detail the various actions taken by each chamber, as well as the sponsors and text of the bills.

Majority rule is not necessarily a feature of democracy, but may be a feature of first past the post voting with only two parties.

I like how we (a vibrant multiparty democracy) do referenda: the referendum text gets put on the ballot, the current government makes a counterproposal "yes, we agree X is a problem but we believe Y is a better solution", and we get to vote either (a) for the referendum proposal, (b) for the government proposal, or (c), the most common option, to leave well enough alone.

Your claim that Japan was not expansionist simply shows a lack of familiarity with Japanese history and archaeology. There used to be Ainu populations even on Honshu, but the early Japanese (who had to a large degree come over from Korea and begun settling the Japanese isles in spite of an indigenous population there) kept pushing them further and further north until they were all gone; only on Hokkaido could the Ainu survive.

I did my Ph.D. in Physics on an F visa, and H1B was my only option when I became a postdoc. Already on the old system, I was paid significantly more than my US citizen colleagues due to the minimum wage. I’m worried about what this rule change will do to my field, where talented postdocs are hard to find. It also never made sense to me to invest many $100k in foreign Ph.D. students to then make it so hard for them to repay part of this investment to the country.

When I used to take part time jobs, I've noticed that the dishwashers in the restaurants are quite different from those used domestically.

Especially for glasses, the job would be done in about 30 seconds, it will come out quite warm and will be ready for re-use as soon as you wipe them (roughly, like for a second or two) with a cloth. Spotless every time.

The plates and everything first go through a larger machine that looks like a carwash for mechanical cleaning, then go to the dishwasher. Comes out hot and ready for use just as quick as with the glasses.

I asked if they use any chemicals and the manager said yes but it was not immediately obvious where they put it and I did not notice any smell, just how water.

Does it have to do with the ratio of water to detergent or something? I have no idea how a dishwasher actually works, is water being recirculated?
Number one thing we can do to pull CO2 from the air is to restore soil across US and other continents.

With “wartime” effort approach, we probably can restore majority of United States depleted farmlands to pristine condition within a decade.

The couple who runs Biggest Little Farm managed to restore ecological balance to their 200 acres under 7 years with limited investment and people.

Imagine if we have the entire US corps of Engineers with full budgetary backing of federal government tackle this? Plus green jobs!

It’s incredibly exciting and hopeful that we have the resources within our grasp to restore ecological balance fairly quickly.

The scroll wheel and navigation don't work at all on Firefox.

Looking at the source it's using three.js 62. That's from 7 years ago. This explains a lot.

What's happening is that back in 2013 Chrome and IE used the non-standard 'MouseWheelEvent' while Firefox used the at-the-time-non-standard-but-is-the-standard-now 'WheelEvent'. Chrome 31 switched from MouseWheelEvent to WheelEvent[+], but that came out in Nov 2013, so when this was written it required some additional code to do cross-browser mouse wheel events (jquery.mousewheel.js in this page's code). Presumably something in that jquery plugin is still trying to do browser API detection and fires the old Firefox wheelEvent rather than the new standard version.

It's a shame no one from Google went back and maintained the code for this really, but we all know how Googlers feel about maintaining old code. :)

[+] Around 2012/2013 there were actually three competing mousewheel events - mousewheel[1], MouseWheelEvent[2], and WheelEvent[3]. XKCD 927 applies here (https://xkcd.com/927/).

[2] https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/MouseWheelE...

[3] https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/WheelEvent

EDIT: Looking at the source of the plugin it also checks for "DOMMouseScroll" and "MozMousePixelScroll". I'm glad we have a standard for this now. Jeez.

The debate and outrage have been about whether this is a good deal for Sweden or not.

Proponents claim that we've created a new base industry with new jobs. In parts of Sweden there is good access to clean power and the cool climate makes these centers relatively energy efficient.

Opponents claim that, excluding the temporary build phase, very few jobs are created. Since power isn't limitless and these centers use a lot there is now no space left for other industries that create a magnitude more jobs per MWh. These centers also pay low taxes on the electricity so their overall contribution to society is minuscule compared to the resources they consume.
>A jury is made up of twelve people who aren't smart enough to get out of jury duty.

You're assuming that every citizen is either ignorant or disdainful of their responsibilities as citizens.

That's sad. I've never tried to get out of jury duty, because I see that as part of my responsibility to my community.

That said, in the half-dozen or so times I've been called, I have yet to be selected for a jury.

But I'll do the same next time, because it's the right thing to do.

I'd add that if I were involved in a trial, I certainly wouldn't want someone who would prefer to shirk their responsibilities as a citizen on my jury, that's for sure.

> It's possibly to believe in God and think that God is too busy with the cosmos to be concerned with our tiny lives. But it isn't a very "useful" belief, in the sense that it's a belief with no practical implication.

It would imply that God has limitations, which goes against the usual view (at least in abrahamic religions) of god being unlimited by definition. It would also invite the question of where those limitations come from. If that's not a practical enough implication, there would also be: dont rely on God for personal attention.

It's important to note that the "human voice" noises of that era were more like San Francisco's 6th and Market at night. It wasn't just people talking; it was people shouting over each other, people fighting, and the mentally ill screaming.

I've had nearly the same experience! I was working on a project for a robotics class and my team could not figure out why our object tracking went from 30fps to ~5fps seemingly randomly. It turns out the USB3 cable wasn't fully plugged in and couldn't make full contact so it was running on USB2 and didn't have the bandwidth to send the video at 30fps.

It took a while to debug because I was absolutely convinced the slowdown was a software or GPU issue. After all, wouldn't you expect most digital ports to be binary: either be plugged in or not? It turns out with USB3 there's a third state.

Well, you seem to know this better than I do. I was always more into the kind of music you got out of turning all the dials up, like you say. My (older) cousin fancied himself a more sophisticated rocker.

The booklet stuck in my mind because Van Halen was the only musician in there that was anywhere near a Metal musician. The others were all people I had never heard from bands I didn't know that probably played jazz or pop or stuff. Van Halen's simple setup, inaccurate as it may have been, somehow served to justify and enforce my preference for the simple, uncomplicated, no-fuss kind of pleasures I always looked for -and found- in Metal.

Excitingly, I'd like to share that SaaSHub's public API has its first integration - Runnaroo up and running. It's a new privacy orientated search engine. I'd say it's an alternative to Google and a direct competitor of DuckDuckGo.

Now, when you prefix your search on Runnaroo with "related:", the results will be provided by SaaSHub. With this in place, this new search engine can provide better results than both Google and DuckDuckGo. For example, you could check the top related results for "Hacker News" https://www.runnaroo.com/search?term=related%3A+hackers+news.

Oh, I missed that part then. Yeah, fixed foveated rendering is a quick and dirty hack, and only really useful on cheap headsets with terrible optics which waste a lot of pixels due to distortion. The proper solution is to improve the optics (a la Valve Index), not use FFR.

Eye tracking foveated rendering is much more useful but a bit of a pipe dream right now and still only gives a max improvement factor of 2-5x or something like that.

So many folks here with a "its a good thing". The challenge that this rule also creates is that there are people in this country who have a spot in the green card line based on the US government approving their petition who have to provide their H1B worthiness every 3 years. Those people now get weeded out. That green card queue is country based. So a Norwegian person who wasnt qualified for the H1B under the new rules already has a green card, but an Indian person is now going to get locked out. This is discrimination based on country of origin, which should be illegal but unfortunately isnt for immigration law.
