E-commerce is weird. I work for an agency that specializes in both Woo and Shopify and we've counseled certain clients to move to the other platform, depending on their business goals and requirements.

Shopify is great for a simple business model with little hands on requirements and pushes towards low friction checkouts.

Woo is less optimized to scale out of the box (this can be tweaked to scale easily enough), but you have entire stack available to you. It's just PHP and MySQL at the end of the day, so anything is possible. This allows you to build more custom experiences depending on what type of products you're selling.

Think of a local t-shirt store. They might start on Shopify, selling their shirts for the local sports teams and tourist attractions, but as they grow, they move into selling custom branded clothes using a printer in their back office. They might transition to WordPress to build a more customized checkout flow, where a user can upload various design files (in a variety of formats: svg, ai, pdf, etc), tweak them on a model and then start a back and forth conversation with the shop owner if there are problems. All that can happen in their account and customizable. That sort of custom experience just isn't possible on Shopify without jumping through some absolutely ridiculous hoops (hosting a separate API and then running an SPA in your shopify theme, etc).

All that to say, it depends :)
I'm curious how you think you know that about HN, because if that's true, you know much more about it than I do.
Re: typos, I think you’re shooting yourself in the foot if you bin a resume for one little mistake. But, yes, if it’s more than a couple, that’s probably not a great sign.
You stopped reading too soon:

e.g.
"
By discharging the cylinders sequentially, the discharge time can be greatly increased, making the system comparable to lead-acid batteries in terms of energy density. Based on their experimental set-up, the researchers calculated the efficiencies for different starting pressures and numbers of cylinders. They found that 57 interconnected cylinders of 10 litre each, operating at 5 bar, could fulfill the job of four 24V batteries for 20 consecutive hours, all while having a surprisingly small footprint of just 0.6 m3.

Interestingly, the storage capacity is 410 Wh, which is comparable to the 360 Wh rural system noted earlier, which requires an 18 m3 storage vessel – that’s thirty times larger than the modular storage system.
"

Also you missed the points of higher pressure vessels and using the residual heat/cold for things like hot water. Basically you trade off lower electricity efficiencies, space, and heat. Excess heat is not necessarily a bad thing in a domestic situation.

My take aways from this article:

- there are a few scenarios where stuff like this makes sense.

- there's lots of room for innovation and component improvement (e.g. more efficient dynamos are hinted at). This is currently a niche market and people have not put much R&D into this so far (i.e. I'd expect some improvements are entirely feasible).

- sequential vs. monolithic setups have different properties.

It boils down to cost / kwh and whether the requirements make sense. In an industrial setup, having a cheap but enormous vessel might not be the end of the world. In an apartment, you'd want maybe a smaller but higher pressure one.
If I had to deal with engineers with stubborn behaviors like this on a day to day basis, I would go completely insane and quit my job. I can feel the release of cortisol just from reading these bullet points.
Given SFTP is ssh based, it seems like it could support agent forwarding + an FXP-like mechanism to jump from server to Server w/o transferring to the controlling host ...
We caught those accounts months ago and their patterns were within the range we understand.

I haven't had a chance yet to look at Troy's latest report to see if there's more that needs cleaning up, but that's a question of inbox load, not smartness.

Edit: it would be interesting if anyone found recent submissions by these accounts that made HN's front page. If anyone does, please let me know at hn@ycombinator.com because I'd like to look at whether and why we missed something. HN has anti-abuse measures that do not show up publicly (because we don't want abusers to observe it) that ought to have prevented most if not all of that.
Density isn’t always that important, for example the Huntorf Plant uses a gigantic underground cave to store 800+ megawatt hours of energy.

A huge amount of amazon’s retail business is as a platform for others to sell their products and the revenue/profit from that is a different game than shipped and sold by amazon.

Amazon isn’t really ever going to achieve a substantially higher scale, there’s nowhere to go and the competition is catching up.

And amazon does already have these features. They often email me when something on my wish list is on sale. No price graph, but still it seems camels is just another lead generation/engagement tool that they don’t have to do themselves.
Surely not.
That's why I don't use docker anymore. I build images using buildah and unprivileged containers.
I wouldn't say easier (this depends on your personal situation). But it is definitely far more sane.
I think that's why they specifically mentioned Statamic. Other MVC framework backed CMS's would work too. OctoberCMS comes to mind, and I'm sure there are others for Rails/Django.

Those would give you a modest plugin ecosystem to get stuff like form submissions, but also give developers an escape hatch for when something more custom is required.

This is probably a great site if you're in the US but the prices it's returning to me here in Australia just aren't the same as on Amazon.com/au and when I try and search the local database (https://au.camelcamelcamel.com/products?sq=red+widget) I get this error:

I mean, the entire premise of their service is that you're routing your communications through their super-powered intermediate proxy services. You're using their clients end-to-end and their servers in the middle. They can do whatever they want with any of those
Even if they are sending Amazon traffic, sometimes companies get a little edgy about people aggregating and republishing their data.
> FTP could be the already widely-supported solution to the send a file between two devices problem

It really couldn't. It has no discovery, no active identity validation story, issues with NAT traversal, relies on filesystem abstraction, ... In sending a file between two devices the actual file sending is the most trivial part and the only part that FTP can do (in the old and clunky let's-split-control-and-data way). We deserve better.
another anecdote, but i was having chronic chest pains and unsure why. it felt to me like some sort of mild infection, and discomfort. typical for me, i reluctantly went to the doctor, they couldn't find anything, and all my tests checked out fine. every few saturdays during the lockdown, myself and my neighbors/close friends would have some mushrooms. one time i was laughing a lot for an extended period of time, like really laughing, and it made me cough up some mucus, and that cleared me instantly of my ongoing chest pain.
no doubt that unconventional "treatments" or solutions can help certain ailments, or at the very least, hearing other people's experiences can help when highly, maybe overly, trained professionals may miss the simplicity of a problem.
>but it may have been to combat rising prices elsewhere.

1. Qualcomm Modem is at least $8 more expensive than Intel according to last court filling. And generally inline with industry expectation of its BOM Cost. Those numbers were for 4G Modem. And I would expect 5G Modem to be even more expensive.

2. mmWave isn't Free. I am very surprised Apple put mmWave inside iPhone 12 as well.

The problem with Multi Port Charger is that it is very Un-Apple. What happens when you charge a MacBook and iPad Pro at the same time? You now either expect customers to add up their Wattage to see if your chargers fits or design a multiple port charger to include this scenario, and if you include Apple's normal accessories margin that Charger is going to be insanely expensive.

So it is better to leave it to third party to do it. Apple will just recommend you to use their own charger.
Yeah in E2EE key distribution is always the tricky part.

For "good" UX, usually it is based on trust that the peer keys are exchanged with help of the centralised service as middle man but that it does not alter the keys.

For good security, each party should ideally check public key fingerprints with each other party via another mean of communication to ensure that there was no man in the middle. But that's poor UX and might be unpractical for large meetings of participants that do not know each other.
Emotion Recognition Through Neural Networks with Stratified Normalization
Thank you for your honest feedback :)
This wasn’t actually just a school project. Jimmy and I met in the class and stayed in touch. One of the many things we bonded over was our shared mental health journey. From growing up in households where it’s highly stigmatized to dealing with our own struggles during college and beyond, we realized we both had a drive to do something based on our and our loved ones’ patient journeys. We are lucky to work with a number of advisors who are some of the most respected academics and practitioners in psychiatry such as Dr. Charles DeBattista and Dr. Alison McInnes. We know we have a lot to learn and are excited to continue to bring in these perspectives.
I am super grateful you’ve pointed out what your perception is! I would be happy to address any additional concerns or take any other feedback :) thank you so much! lucia@osmind.org
I think insomnia is a way of blaming a human for not being on the industrial day cycle.

I don't think there is anything wrong with staying up late through the night and sleeping into the day.

If I am not falling asleep, I get up and work on something, rather than allowing myself to become attached to the idea of going to sleep at a certain time.

When I feel so tired that I have no choice but to pass out, that is when I lie down and sleep like a baby.

I feel extremely blessed/fortunate to have discovered letting my body dictate when to sleep and when to wake, and hope that my message helps someone else.
Use pulse audio volume control. See if it would help. Mine also broke after some system update. With this I was able to select bluetooth profile as well as set audio out via bluetooth. Before finding this bluetooth headset wouldnt work correctly on elementary os, but never needed it in linuxmint.

The problem is not not wanting to pay for software. Hashicorp enterprise products have very interesting features which the open source code is lacking (e.g. nomad namespacing) but they are insanely expensive so you are forced to use the open source versions as the enterprise versions are targeted at fortune x companies.
With a fake you don't need to rewrite its behavior in every single unit test that friends on it. One fake for each datastore, shared by all tests.
> only .3-1mg is needed

It's a bit more subtle than that: the correct dose is about 300 to 1000 micrograms. Doses significantly larger than that will not work for most people. The effective dosing window for melatonin is narrow, so more is not better.

It doesn't help that most melatonin available OTC in the US is in doses of 3mg to 10mg. This stuff is not useful. You need the 300 microgram pills, the 1 milligram pills, the liquid, or as a last resort the 3mg pills with a splitter.
Well, after a bit of contemplating...it is definitely the crowds as I just switched to the World Darts Championship and whatever it is I'm feeling, I'm getting it from watching Darts too. I've never been to a Darts match before!

Depends on what you're doing, but coding is probably the obstacle. There's about 4 of us working various amounts of part time.

In the case of auto-save, there's a lot of unsettled design trade-offs, and other needs keep coming up. But if you're curious, you're welcome to check out the GitHub: snap-cloud/snapCloud is the backend, and jmoenig/snap is the main IDE.
1 meter of 1mm diameter wire with 1 million amperes amounts to 750kJ, or ~180g of TNT.

The Amish I have visited were as a sibling commenter to you describes: a single diesel motor runs the compressor. Ostensibly, a person with a bike, hand crank or horse on a treadmill could do the same, albeit extremely slowly. It is considered a minor compromise that doesn't have too significant an effect to be avoided.

I believe some also had mechanical windmills, though none for electrical generation. The area wasn't suitable for waterwheels- if it was, I suspect they may have forgone the diesel engine.

This group also had single landline phone in the community, in someone's yard nearish the road. They used it for the rare cases where letters weren't practical- things like calling a doctor, etc.

Keep in mind, the limitations are based on how a thing affects your relationship with God and each other. Buttons on clothes, for example, weren't a thing; they were seen as a vanity (often too decorative). Instead, safety pins were the norm. As such, technology isn't banned for being technology, but as part of a larger category of things that draw you away from devotion- be it pride, vanity, etc.
Don't worry, your tax dollars are fulfilling much more noble goals today like subsidising fossil fuels or autonomous attack drones.
> If we care about the first DNA molecule to ever exist it's a very different question. We don't need to find a physical process that produces a modern DNA molecule from 'raw parts', rather one that takes not-quite-DNA and converts it into DNA.

We haven't found that, and apparently aren't even close. We don't even have any idea what something like that might look like, or even more critically: given all the incredibly, insanely, unbelievably rare DNA sequences that exist in the world today, why is such a fundamental process capable of producing them not abundant as fuck already? Where'd it go? Why is this process even a mystery in 2020? It should be ubiquitous; in fact, all of the primordial soup mechanisms should be. Certainly that's what we expected when the theory was developed, and it hasn't panned out.

Anyway, I think we've exhausted this topic. Thanks for commenting.
Yeah as a beginner at open source contributing (but not development) I'd be looking to fix tiny bugs first anyway!

just like your eyes have are not beaming k-vector spaces but feeling in the spectum of sesning so just like we have gained a lot of freqs you can think of it this way, lets say

What about the story should I not be taking at face value? I just read the email, seems pretty clearcut that the Burisma bigshot asked Hunter to "use your influence" to fight off the "general prosecutor". Ultimately Biden did get the prosecutor general fired by withholding foreign aid, and bragged about it on camera.

IIRC Trump was impeached for supposedly threatening to withhold foreign aid from Ukraine unless they investigated this incident.
The whole "secret creed" angle in the headline is pure sensationalism. Half the article doesn't even talk about it, and even the way they describe it sounds like a normal "business values" kind of deal, maybe expressed in a weird way. You wouldn't call Bezos' leadership principles a "creed" for Amazon's management, would you?
The fact that you can’t specify a default music app on iOS also bothers me quite a bit. On Android, assistant knew what app to use so I could just ask it to play something and not have to specify “on Spotify “. Of course this problem extends to loads of other apps on iOS.

One of the things you can do with samsung's connected oven is turn on Shabbat mode from your phone. Normally the oven will shut off after 12 hours of you not doing anything, but set the desired temp and turn on Shabbat mode and it will hold there indefinitely until until you turn Shabbat mode back off.

You can also do something similar with the fridge where it turns off the ice maker and the auto door light.

I share in your fascination of these kinds of workarounds.
In the File menu inside Snap!, click on libraries and on that list there's an entire APL library that expands upon these ideas. I am no APL expert; this is something really designed more about pushing the limits than something we're actively trying to teach, but there's definitely useful tools in there.

...did you intend to post this under my comment?

I can't for the life of me see the relevance. Sealed phones aren't an industry Nash equilibrium, they're a good design that users and manufacturers both prefer.

There are also no ecological grounds whatsoever to prefer user-replaceable batteries. The fact that it requires a few professional tools and some patience is irrelevant: when the battery stops holding a charge, it can be replaced, and this happens routinely.
How about a form that required clicking on an invisible button? A bot would see the button and click on it, while a human would just read whatever else was on the page and close the page.

So you're saying that modern capitalism has completely supplanted the original reason for starting a company in the first place?

I did not write what I wrote as a parody. Shareholder primacy is the foremost blight on this modern existence and is responsible for an innumerably large portion of the negative externalities that cause so such much suffering today.

I would vote with my wallet, but that will accomplish exactly jack shit. There are few who will stand with me if it means threatening their pathetically precious creature comforts which our modern capitalism so dutifully provides.

Also, it is worth noting that the entire goal of capitalism is to eliminate those options, using "free-market economics" as cover for its seemingly insatiable lust for competitors to gobble up or otherwise drive out of business. Some of the very first things they teach you in b-school, about moat building and competitive advantages and all that other crap, is an outright attack on the marketplace model
PRISM sucks, but would we really know if it led to stopping an attack? Would it's use be hidden with parallel construction?

On the other hand, there is probably tremendous marketing value in publicizing any wins produced by the system.
The counter-culture of 'rebellion' doesnt stay the same. The most recent star wars films focused on 'resistance' instead. It's an opposing force to a current trend.

I don't care that no-one was interested or not, the key part is that the content of the discussion centred around money.

If people weren't interested in the subject of artistic comdy and they expressed that, there would be evidence art still matters. Wrapping up people's disinterest with a conversation around money, shows it's dead art. Shallow or deep, interpreted or not.

The fact that you guys are still deflecting from the idea that art is less potent, is in itself a sorrowful confirmation of the idea.
