From my experience, as a cyclist speed and acceleration helps with avoiding car-related danger. If you're fast enough, cars won't needlessly overtake you (in rush hour, most car traffic may not exeed 30 km/h for example due to roads being packed too full, that's easy to match for a trained cyclist).

Also at intersections, being really quick at acceleration allows you to get out of the danger zone of cars crossing your path before there's a conflict. Think about right-turning trucks starting after a red traffic light.

I think fitness (and maybe reaction time) is some reason why severe cycling accidents seem to happen to older cyclist at a higher rate. In Berlin out of 15 cycling deaths this year, more than half of them are age 60 and higher [1], 3 are beyond 80 years of age.

If I had to guess the outcome, we’d probably see Google Search keep its present market share (splitting Search and ads wouldn’t help Bing Search beat Google Search). Google Ads and Bing Ads would both bid for space on Google and Bing, in addition to other players. Disrupters might be able to take some market share here by having a cheaper cost structure, or Google might dominate because they have the best tech.
Google search: You can record yourself in front of time.gov page if you want to. The time constantly changes. You can move constantly while talking, so that your figure has an overlap with the time clocks. This can be "intercepted" - you can show headers and re-directions using an add-on, but the basic idea here is to use something almost anyone can do, so I am not proposing that.

Video editing: So many ways of doing this. The basic idea is to show a display of "time and date" somewhere, which is difficult for you to arrange.

You can record yourself standing in front of a couple of newspaper stands, showing today's newspapers.

You can record yourself shouting at train passengers of multiple trains, "hey what's today's date and time?" and recording the response.

There are many, many solutions accessible to the common man to prove this, with a generally acceptable level of authenticity.
Even if a DB is disk-based, you can throw it in a ramdisk to get the same speedups, often. I would be curious to know if there are any drawbacks or dangers from doing that, apart from the obvious “if your box powers off, the ramdisk is gone” and “each time the box restarts, you have to copy the db to the ramdisk.”

The main problem I was uneasy about was, I would simply use the equivalent of rsync -Pa /ramdisk /disk in a loop, which seemed to ensure safety in the event of a poweroff. It never broke, but I wouldn’t say it was a good idea, necessarily.

Sure speeds up most things though. The benefits are pretty crazy for I/O bound programs.

Not exactly. The GPL's special status generally comes from the fundamentals of copyright law: it attaches conditions to the duplication, modification, and distribution of a work. If not for the GPL, you'd have no right to distribute something containing the copyrighted code.

The datacenter-versus-personal conditions of NVidia drivers attach instead to the use of the copyrighted work. These restrictions are based on the idea of an end user license agreement as an enforceable contract, either agreed-upon when the driver is downloaded or through a theory that copyright attaches to the temporary (in-memory) copy of the driver necessary to run it.
The issue with that is that oftentimes by the time something has been used for years, the manufacturer has discontinued the model, or even worse, kept the same model number and did some cost engineering to make the new version less durable.

I agree with you though that a lot of reviews are useless fluff like shipping speed and packaging, and that there should be a better way to evaluate products.

The “rest of the world” doesn’t call it the “center’s agenda” in my observation - what are you basing that on? I have noticed there is a tendency on HN to treat Scandinavian countries with small homogeneous populations as “the rest of the world”, ignoring other nations out there as well as the diversity of opinions within Scandinavian countries.

In my view, the far left - as far as those in the center are concerned - is “progressives” in America (and their equivalents elsewhere): those pushing for equity (equality of outcomes instead of equality of opportunity), those using a victim/oppression narrative as a foundation for every political position, those seeking collectivist society/policy instead of individualist perspectives, etc. There is room for relativism certainly, but characterizing the GND as the “center” is not just without evidence but in conflict with the reality of political cultures around the world.

Good advice - I've been there with burn out and depression. Some of what helped me most:

That can't be entirely true. There must be some kind of continuous, convex or monotonic precondition on f. Something to stop me from implementing a cryptographic hash function, and asking for the solution to a 10000 bit challenge that is supposed to require a trillion times Earth's entire computing resources running for a million years.

Or maybe it's impossible to implement that hash function reversibly without preserving a copy of the input in the output.

I don’t know the answer to your question, but back when I had unlimited tethering with fast 4G, I would basically just have it on all the time to use my laptop on the go and treated it like home WiFi. So even though I would have home WiFi and be connected while at home, I would still rack up 10+GB of usage monthly. That is to say, I can imagine hitting 17GB could be common every month even with home WiFi depending on the culture of usage.

If it's anything like here in Sydney, people are writing some name and some phone number down. Every woman I know uses a fake name, and most of them are using fake numbers too.

Covid risks are _way_ lower here than risks of random creeps misusing names/numbers of women...

I'm less affected by those particular risks, but I still use a burner Twilio SMS number and a burner gmail address that doesn't get used for anything else, with plus addressing to help try identify where a leak happened. If that account starts getting spam to nomdeplume+somesmallbar@gmail.com or nomdeplume+someQRcodesigninservice@gmail.com, I might get a smoking gun about who leaked it.

If the spammers are cleaning their lists of that well-enough-known email tracking trick and sending enough smtp to make the address a problem to use, I can just walk away from that gmail account and set up a new one.

I'm contemplating building an automated system of "rolling 4 week validity email addresses" that I can easily enough work out on-the-spot, perhaps month/week-of-month encoding so I'd use nomdeplume-102+randombar@example.org this week (102 being october 2nd week) and only have the addresses live long enough for contact tracing purposes. Perhaps using something t5hat works the same as gmail's "plus addressing" but different enough that spammers list cleaning tools won't know about it. That'd involve running my own mail server though, and the risks here right now are so low (in the single digit cases per day in a city of 5million people) that I'm more motivated to just lie on the contact forms instead...

> Buy a bigger, better monitor than you planned

But! Do a bit of research. I sent back a 24" 1080p monitor and got a 21.5" one instead, because the pixel density was too low. And it always will be, but still there's tons of 24" monitors out there at 1080p because people think bigger is better.

Make sure you're going bigger and better in the right ways.

It's not a single plant, and it's not all going to be installed in a year; these are the interconnection plans for all sorts of much smaller projects.

We are only at the infancy of lithium ion production, I'm actually surprised that we are at 300GWh. With this very limited capacity, and typical grid storage batteries being warranties for around 15 years, our current production supports a global deployment of 4.5TWh of storage. We are at 9 hours of global storage, and we haven't even really started scaling battery production.

I know you didn't put a label on these numbers, as being big or small, but we are on track to solve this problem with battery storage, it seems!

That's not a software bug, that's an image retention issue with your monitor. If it was that severe then it probably got into a state where it was sending severely invalid timings to the TFT LCD array, DC biasing it, which causes long-term retention and may even cause permanent damage if done for too long.

Software isn't supposed to be able to cause that. That's on your monitor.
I'm surprised adblocker is breaking this. Any idea what component/library it's blocking here? This is using socket.io to get tweets from the server.
The responsible component in the CRT is probably the flyback transformer. Supposedly replacing it with one that is more well made or applying some high-voltage silicone putty to it should prevent the sound.

Of course, this DIY solution does not scale well, so it wouldn't necessarily help with a room full of CRTs with bad flyback transformers.

EDIT: the voltages involved are potentially lethal
I moved recently and had to tether for ~a week while my ftth was being relocated - ended up using around 80GB of data in that time. Normally I use less than 6GB per month.

I would be curious to see how different mobility patterns in different places (e.g. I live in Singapore, where commutes are naturally short) affect mobile data usage vs. other more obvious factors like home internet penetration.

It feels like I use much more data when I'm back in the US or working on site, even if I have a fixed base to work at, just because of the amount of time I spend moving around.

I've got unlimited mobile data for a great price in spain as well. Honestly, I hope the us catches up at some point because software still doesn't even consider it an option - I have to actively fight all my settings so I can get updates, backups, streaming at high quality and the like because the OS considers they should always be done on wifi.

Sometimes, the situation has been so absurd that I've had to use the share Network function with a friend's phone to fool my phone into believing I'm on wifi so I could download an update.

Agreed with you until this point. At least the junk TV I know also involves (be it consciously or not) comparing yourself, this time with celebrities instead of acquaintances.
I recently bought a RX 5700 XT, and installed it on a computer that first ran Linux and then Windows 10.

In Linux, the driver (including audio) seemed very robust, but I didn't find anything like a detailed control panel for the card's graphics features.

On Windows, the AMD-supplied control panel has plenty of knobs and buttons, but the driver itself seems less robust, particularly w.r.t. audio-over-HDMI.

Yes, high-end is a thing but high-end gaming monitors have tripled over the last 3 years or so, and now they are to the point where they are competing with premium televisions which offer a better overall picture quality. So you really have to figure out what you actually want.

IPS contrast is not good and OLED contrast is amazing (it's the only way to get "real" HDR except for VA which has poor motion clarity), with the only real downside to OLED being burn-in (it's gotten massively better over the last few years but heavily UI type stuff in lightmode-type color schemes with fixed elements is the worst case scenario, this should not be your daily driver for Excel spreadsheets). But again, you have to bear in mind that you could literally buy two OLEDs for the price of that "premium" IPS monitor, so if it doesn't become obnoxiously burned within 2.5 years or so (assuming a 5y lifespan on your IPS monitor) you are coming out ahead on burn-in.

> I'm also not sure what 4k 120hz tv you're referring to. Do they exist?

Yes, LG's OLED series has supported 4K120 input (not strobing/interpolation, true input at 120fps) since the last generation (C9, support continues with CX). Also supports HDMI VRR.

CX adds 120 Hz black frame insertion - so it can take 60 hz and alternate between a signal frame and a black frame for additional motion clarity.

> How do you get a 4k 120hz signal into such a device?

For the LG OLED series, HDMI 2.1, from an NVIDIA 3000 series or Radeon RDNA2 GPU.

Or, display stream compression over DP 1.4, which is what the 4K144 gaming panels are currently doing (none of them currently support HDMI 2.1). Also, that currently only gets you to 4K120 without chroma subsampling, another disadvantage of the current "gaming monitor" crop.

> And how am I meant to fit it in my 3ft deep desk?

Wall mount. CX 48" wall mounted 3 feet away is probably about the same as a 34" ultrawide that's 18" away (which is what I'm currently using) I'd think. Certainly a "big" monitor but the people who are really up shit creek are the ones with shallow desks and/or who are currently situated in a corner and can't wall mount.

> When you “buy” software, you are actually entering into a lease contract to use the software

This is inaccurate, at least as to purchases software. A license is not a contract because the licensee is not required to do anything. A license can have conditions (restriction), but not covenants (promises to do something). A license basically functions as a defense against a claim of infringement.

Note: For purchased software there is a contract for the sale of the software subject to the license, but that shouldn’t be confused with the license itself.

I think some truly excellent authors can start novels with themes in mind and still have a great book at the end. I am thinking C.S. Lewis specifically. Many of his works he knew the philosophical themes that would be present before writing them, but none of the come off as preachy (though some of his children books are basic) because they are such good stories.

On the whole though I do think a lot of discovery and learning takes place well writing. Though I have never written a novel so I do not really know.
