Thank you! And yep, there's an email signup at the link. Signing up for the email list is the best way to say "I want one." And Instagram is probably the best for following along.
The fact that local governments in every state make deals with companies for reduced property-tax rates is why I'm terrified about Prop 15 killing California.

The big businesses, Facebook, Google, Apple, will all negotiate special property tax rates and only the small businesses will have to pay the double or triple tax prop 15 would bring.
Just for those who don't understand the business side of this.

Chinese mfgs. don't and won't make anything in the USA except in remarkable circumstances. There's many reasons, but supply chain, labor force, eco, and costs are the main ones.

What's funny is when a Chinese businesperson is doing an interview in the US, and they're asked, "how many jobs are you creating in the US?" Cue the stammering, since they were expecting a puff piece about non-business questions.

They do launder money using US and Canadian real estate for a "rainy day" - like when the CCP decides to arrest them and their family members. That's what all those empty, dark condos in Vancouver are for.
Good construction managers often go from project to project with no tie to a particular company. Same with most of the craft.

They're interested in surviving this project. There seems to be fuck all continuity out there.
We mostly use gitflow. Commits do not just "sneak in". Master is locked and needs a PR/CR to merge. The process usually takes care of the majority of the issues and usually works okay for us.

Desktop Linux is also at the point where if a Chromebook would satisfy a user's use case, then so would something like Ubuntu. I've had my parents on Linux for a while now, and it just works.

Cool discussion. Thanks all.
According to the Rideshare Guy, the proportion of drivers in favor of being an IC was higher pre-pandemic and higher outside of CA. You could make the opposite argument -- that political voices have influenced people in the other direction. I'm not sure which would be correct. I've personally seen a lot of misinformation in the other direction. The top post in this thread (which I replied to) is a distillation of general sentiment and misinformation from AB5/No22 voices.

Also, the "against" was not 40% even when "for" was 60%. It was 60% for, 24% against, and 16% undecided. I'm not sure where you got the number that 0% of journalists wanted to be employees but I doubt it's actually 0%.

Anyways, happy to get into a deeper discussion offline -- I think there's a lot of interesting philosophical arguments for both sides but with politics the way it is the Yes/No voices are currently talking past each other. Feel free to reach out to me directly!
Sick surf: reports of toxic water in Kamchatka, Russia
I was 13 when I purchased mine on lawnmower money. Getting a tape drive to store the hours of peaking/poking the games from the magazines was amazing.

Just found my original 300 baud modem and hardware/software moving homes. War Games, once I found out it was created on a Commodore PET, was a huge influence at the time. Not sure if I have a single monitor with an RCA connector anymore.

Every time I go down this rabbit hole I get re-convinced of panspermia. Maybe when I retire I'll study enough statistics and molecular biology to try to get my head around it. Or by then we'll be talking to aliens and the question will be moot.

But you already can't opt out of them sharing their entire address book with the latest sketchy app they downloaded. What's the difference?

They either have your phone number and other contact details in their phone or they don't. They either make good decisions or they don't. You choose how much to trust them and what with. Federation and third party implementations of identity servers for one particular app changes absolutely none of that.
The good citizens of the US deserve, first and foremost, high quality media, similar to the BBC in the UK. Right now US citizens do not fund a news organization that looks after their interests so they are stuck with various news outlets with their own agendas. An independant, citzen news operation working in the public interest and paid for by the public would be a useful starting point.
Came across a video of a man fishing in Atlanta, Idaho who got stuck in quicksand while out in the water, making his sinking that much more perilous. As you might imagine, a small place like Atlanta, Idaho (population 54) wasn't well equipped for a rescue but they managed to save the fisherman in the end.

> Yes, totalitarian states have used education to indoctrinate masses to maintain order and power. Depends on who does the teaching and how it is taught, that is why critical thinking is key.

None of the German Empire, Weimar Republic or Russian Empire were totalitarian states. If education is protective against indoctrination the effect is at best weak. A lively marketplace of ideas is no guard against organized thugs if the liberals are not willing to defend liberalism. Critical thinking is a red herring.

Sure they do. Corporations are owned by people, and those people have speech interests. If corporations didn’t have the right to free speech then a group of people campaigning for a politics cause would suddenly lose their right to free speech if they formed a corporation to simplify the activities, such as the joint handling of money or purchasing of ads.
for most discords you do need a verified email to chat.
That's a 'key feature' for a rather narrow niche of players. Which makes a lot of sense - voice chat itself was once a special thing for srscat gaming enthusiasts. The trouble is, the voice chat products themselves got stuck there, even as networking, median hardware and multiplayer gaming itself got a lot more popular. Discord is just a better product, not for 'the mass market' but generally and it's worth studying rather than dismissing its success especially if you want better voice chat tools that also meet your specialized needs.
I assume a decent plan willbe hard to make without understanding that a sizeable portion will have to be reworked. (In software at least). For example, the Boehm model. How do you make a Gantt chart without abstracting away the whole project?

Doing old things better & doing brand new things.

Always seemed to go together in some way. I want them both.

When I was a youngster, the NFL was still drinking Kool-Aid.

Just like all the college teams, except one.

They had this exclusive high-performance drink that made other teams jealous.

Scoring upsets could sometimes be blamed on the beverage, so they ended up having to share it.

And release it commercially, it flew off the shelf.

By the time I got to the University, they had really doubled down on the innovation thing seriously every year.

It was more crowded than ever and from day one I felt a certain particular pressure I've never forgotten.

We were supposed to invent something new, or new ways of making the same old stuff.

There had been a very strong trend in many ways which could make it more likely for the next Gatorade to be invented.

They were going to flunk the vast majority, sheesh, they were going to need to test all the students to find that kind.

Now I see that brand new things are much less common mainly due to limited opportunity, but doing old things better is how you maintain readiness for that kind of opportunity.
Well, plenty of manufacturing doesn't require state of the art. Start with that level today, and you can still use it a decade from now for products that don't require bleeding edge.

Take chip fab for example: 45nm chips appeared around 2008, and cutting edge today is 5nm. Yet something like an arduino may come in around 200nm, the Pi 4 is still 28nm. So there's a fairly long lifespan for manufacturing facilities. Some will retool for the latest tech sure, but plenty will simply pivot to a different market niche commensurate with their capabilities.
you could at least give some names :)
Remember when going to work had nothing to do with bringing your stupid politics to work.
I might never understand the urge to blame social media for the state of US politics. The voters have severe kitchen-table issues that don’t go away when they log out.
This is why real security starts with a threat model.

If you are worried that someone will kidnap you, take you to a 3-D imaging system, hit you with an amnesiac so you forget that happened, build a mask realistic enough to unlock your iPhone – which that article noted could NOT be done for £300 — and then use that to unlock your devices you have to start by asking why they wouldn’t simply unlock the device when they had enough control over you to run an invasive scan. That’s a movie-plot threat, not something anyone reading this needs to worry about and if they did they should be investing in bodyguards.

Similarly, in the real world you have to make trade-offs. In this case, the alternative is using a password. Those are not only much, much easier to observe with a camera but also open rich new areas for an attacker to try: passwords are generated by normal people so they’re often weak, notoriously reused across multiple sites, and people are convinced by phishers to enter their passwords on the wrong site. Trying to protect against the Hollywood threats makes you more vulnerable to the kinds of things which befall many people on a daily basis.

It seems unlike criticism of Commodore, people can't
deal with any criticism of Apple Hagiography,

This is a misunderstanding of the folks interacting with you on this comment thread. Perhaps you grew up elsewhere and there is a language barrier. I'm not sure how else to explain it.

This thread is filled with folks freely pointing out areas in which Commodore's offerings were superior, that the Apple II line clearly stagnated for a decade before culminating in the intentionally crippled IIgs. I don't see people even remotely promoting "hagiorgraphy", just folks (besides you) attempting to have a nuanced discussion.

Not to mention my vested interest in Commodore/MOS since I grew up just a few miles from MOS' HQ and have even visited the building. So to suggest I am locked into a US/Apple-only view of personal computers in the 80s is absolutely absurd. Good day and good bye. I certainly hope the rest of your HN interactions are not like this.

There is some notation you must know (product, sum, set, etc) but the math is very straightforward, which makes sense, game theory in its most basic form is relatively straightforward logic that one can reason through with needing complex mathematical tools or abstractions.
>That's pretty dismissive of gcc, clang, linux, apache etc. "some evenings", eh? By 2000 I'd put probably $60M into gcc alone.

You mean the tools that are maintained by huge teams in large companies, because the they are critical to the paid products or services sold by these companies? Sure, technically it's free software, but de-facto they are decentralized loss leaders behind fairly solid business models.

>It just seems odd you are so casually dismissive.
I'm just talking about my own expectations and experience. Aside from a few notable exceptions like the ones you mentioned, my experience with free software very often starts with googling why it doesn't work out-of-the-box (or does something completely unintended) and where to find some obscure setting to change this.

> Just as you care that your car has been crash tested "under some synthetic circumstances"

About 1.3% of all human caused gas emissions, made worse because it is primarily methane.

As for burning first, that only works for new dams, and you need to de extensive excavation to get at the roots as well- depending on the plant, upwards of half of its mass is below the surface.

Biomass decay isn't the only problem; the article also cites downstream algae blooms, which I suspect would be exacerbated by the occasional dredging necessary to keep dams from being blocked by silt.

A direct comparison to coal is tricky, because a lot depends on the type of coal burned and thr type of plant it burns in. Certainly coal isn't a clean source of energy, but it is clear that hydro isn't either.
I believe "Sidecar" did this. They ultimately failed and I would imagine the user experience of having to choose and filter prices from a list for a something relatively time sensitive (a ride) to have contributed.

Ultimately it'd just boil down to a button that finds the lowest price at the highest rating (of the driver) and the closest distance to me, which is what you get with the current services.

There's one place where quicksand (or quicksand-like substances) is alive and well: as a hazard in video games. Even in recent Mario games, if Mario dips his toe in sand that appears to be moving, he will sink and eventually die. Earlier games gave you an out by mashing the jump button frantically to get Mario free, but the 3D ones don't even seem to afford you that. The same goes for the bubbling purple muck in a jungle-themed level.
If the message is long enough to actually have multiple sentences, each individual sentence has a period. The last sentence simply drops the period.

It's not the use of periods on a per-sentence basis, it's just the last period. For certain demographics this evokes a tone of abrupt and unfriendly finality. But it depends on context.
A much bigger set of improvements to the git diff output is also easy to add: https://github.com/so-fancy/diff-so-fancy

This makes your git diff highlight the actual different characters between two lines, makes file names easy to see (and easy to copy, due to no a/ b/), makes renames and blank lines clear and readable.

It is so nice to get all this without a separate GUI diff visualiser when doing anything git-related from the command line.
Moxie has explicitly said several times that third-party clients connecting to the main Signal servers are actively not supported and has threatened to start blocking them or enforcing the Signal trademark if they get big enough.

Corroborating you point: Safari on iPhone will autofill passwords with just a biometric, so if you have an unlocked iPhone and a clone of the user's biometric, you can access websites and potentially even change their passwords. If it's timed out or user deliberately disabled the biometric, then you will need the passcode to be able to access anything.
I still really enjoy it. I feel like one of their guiding principles is "if doing something tedious or annoying would make you more successful, let's remove that". So, for instance, instead of having to take notes about what's in your stash, you can just search all items you've ever seen and where they're located.
The difference is that on ebay you get to set the price of what you are selling.

With Uber you don't. Uber gets to decide how much the ride costs, not you.

I am focusing more on building things with tools I have never used before. Constantly retrospecting my choices in professional and personal life to find ways to do things better. Also the usual - reading books, blogs, following better and smarter people on Twitter. I avoid LinkedIn... it's just an echo chamber on high-fives now.

Dollar for dollar I find Ikea products to be a better value than anything else I can find. Sure, some stuff is cheap, but if I dropped the same amount at Target then I would truly have a cheap crappy thing compared to the Ikea product. And a good deal of stuff from Ikea is made very well from hardwood, and I would be hard pressed to find something of similar quality without doubling the price point. I actually buy most of it used. The Ikea market is hot in CA at least; if I see something I like in the catalog chances are someone is selling the very same thing locally in excellent shape.
To your point:

It's the one solution that satisfies the initial value condition y(0)=1.

This idea is analogously applied to the case of systems of ODEs with constant coefficients. The system y'=y=Iy has a basis of solutions of the form (e^x 0 ... 0)^t, (0 e^x 0 ... 0)^t, etc. Written column-wise into a matrix, this gives us the Wronskian Y which satifies Y(0)=I, and this Y is exactly the matrix exponential e^(xI).

More in general, the equation y'=Ay has the Wronskian Y=e^(xA) which satisfies Y(0)=1.
Everyone seems to be quoting a lot but in the end it seems to converge to a handful (at least, I hope) studies with adopted children. I'll try to find the references before making judgements.

Until then, whether this is really useful or not, I want to mention that time and again my experience in academia is that topics like these where we really depend on the judgement of the investigators a lot need to be carefully evaluated. Academics have a tendency to over exaggerate significant beliefs from highly questionable data points from very few studies. I'll revert back after going through the literature best I can.
0 A.D. was a commercial project that was open-sourced, not a community project.
> what about citizens united

Sure, what about a decision that said individuals do not lose their free speech writes when they organise collectively, and that it would be a grossly illegal for government to muzzle groups like the New York Times or the Sierra Club just because they disagree with their speech? A decision that in the instant case was literally about the ability of government to limit the criticism of candidates?

I'm just fine with that decision, frankly.
Everyone knows American workers are way worse than chinese blue collar workers. This is a well known fact among factory owners in China.

Foxconn is not stupid, they've done such a thing before when migrating manufacturing to China. If American workers were good they'd take this project seriously too. They aren't, and the screw ups are just a result of certain executives not taking the project seriously and not providing enough resources to lower management.

This project was done for optics. It has an ulterior motive because it's not logical to hire workers in America when you can get better workers in China.
We should fight for a system where people can actually be paid enough to live from ONE JOB.

> Others face big disruptions to their coding world only occasionally (your Enterprise Java programmer with a 20 year career in monolithic app development who now lives in a brave new world of microservices, CI/CD, devops, oh my!)

The industry has a habit of calling things like this technical skills, but I really think that culture is the more appropriate word. Things like lodash vs. for loop, or imperative vs. functional. It's culture it ain't science and it isn't a job skill. These are just things that people choose to believe and the only ones who need to learn at a breakneck pace are those who value staying in fashion.
Natural gas burns pretty clean by comparison, and if we're taking methane, it's far better to burn it and produce those relatively low C02 amounts than let the methane into the atmosphere as it holds roughly 80 times more heat than C02.

C02 produced by biomass varies with moisture content, but is generally on the level of coal per unit of energy. Moister wood produces slightly more, dry seasoned wood slightly less than coal.
They sell quite a lot of solid wood furniture.
I really like reading his writeups on roguelike developments. I also play Cogmind and it's been a timesink too. With each major update, he also introduces a "mod" option that lets you play the game in different ways and that refreshes the game so well.

For example, Cogmind is a game in which you blow up other robots and take their parts in as yours. Each time you would go up a level, you would be able to put points into different categories that let you accomodate more parts, etc. One time however, the game added a different way of playing that lets you "buy" upgrades as you level up (level up as in going up a level). That made the game quite different and I had fun playing it all over again.
We plan to open source the code ASAP. It will take us a few days to finish the paperwork. The repo is already ready. So hang on.
Money isn't abortion either, but the Supreme Court would toss out a law instantly that claimed not to ban abortion, but to ban spending money to obtain an abortion.

Money is a tool which enables people to exercise a right. Limiting your ability to exercise the right is a limitation on that right. If I have a right to do a thing, then I have the right to spend money on doing that thing.
I've been watching/waiting for something like this to come along. There was a startup years ago whose name I can't remember anymroe that tried doing it with a (relatively) high voltage DC system (I think 240), where the "packets" were very short (ms) bursts of energy, followed by short signaling bursts with very little amperage. Something about the protocol and design of it meant that even though high voltage DC systems like that are typically considered very dangerous, this one you could just grab a live wire, and it would just not send the next pulse because the signaling had been interrupted. The energy within a given pulse was under the safety threshold of things we tolerate now.

That and of course the reigning champion so far: USB PD. Wicked hot mess that it is, wouldn't be the first time the kludge wins.
