>He was mocking the people who think he should be held accountable for his actions.

If you're an internet marxist and accuse someone (without evidence) of staging or supporting a coup .. you're not actually holding anyone for their actions... you're just acting like a douchebag marxist.

>and the economic benefit to Tesla both immediately after the coup and long term.

And to you as well, after all, lower lithium prices mean lower prices for any battery-operated electronics. Maybe you're behind this coup as well?

>I'll admit it's hardly conclusive

I think you can state it more strongly than that. It's a conspiracy theory in the mold of infowars.
It's absolutely beautiful, just enormously impressive. Thank you for making it!
The last update for the iPhone 5S was iOS 12.4.8, released July 15, 2020. In the meantime, various vulnerabilities were found in e.g. Safari [1]. I don't believe all of that is backported into iOS 12.x.

I came to find out that it has a lot to do with 1) the dishwasher itself and 2) the detergent or tablets that you use.

We now have a higher(ish) end Bosch machine and the manual specifically tells you to put the dishes with up to "moderately dried food remains". The machine has a sensor that looks at how dirty the water going out is and increases power

That with some Finish Quantum tablets does the job perfectly every time
/u/tomquirk - thanks so kindly for posting this. As a trans woman in IT I couldn’t appreciate this post more at this time, nor do I think it’s ever been more relevant.

Might I suggest you consider adding - and I put here for HN’s convenience as well — a list of potential great alternatives? :)

‘Hey folks’

‘Hey everyone’

‘Hey y’all’

‘Hey team:’

Even just ‘Hey -‘

I also like ‘Good morning’, ‘Good afternoon’, ‘Good evening’, they’re great ways to inclusively greet people and start a conversation as well.

Thanks again for posting this! :)
Some Unsolicited Constructive Feedback, because I really like the premise of this blog.

On this article, great title w/o being click-bait, but text is more of a shower thought.

On the sibling article ‘Three Type of Management Problems’ suggests a framework, while the article is a bit of a ramble.

Feedback on these and future content would be to start with a bit more structure and then flesh out the article.

For instance, if doing a framework article, open with the framework, then spend a section on each point of the framework, then weave it back together and restate it at the end.

Finally, “A guide to scaling product & engineering teams from $0 to past $100M ARR.” is a great hook but makes one want to know which SaaS built the author’s chops. And the title “Stay SaaSy” suggests a sustainable SaaS over an exit-oriented SaaS, which would be an uncommon and very welcome angle. Maybe touch a bit more on the connection between title, slug, and article content, within the articles.

One random idea: guest guidance from founder/owners of SaaS that have been in business more than a decade w/o VC or exit route.
So many words! This tweet covers some great alternatives: https://twitter.com/techseowomen/status/1317545475021701126
Ecce Homo is what happens when people who don't k ow what they're doing have a go anyway.
Your behavior change is fine, and you're free to modify your own behavior if you'd like obviously. You never said it, but where many people go wrong is when they say "I'm modifying my behavior to avoid any potential for a perceived slight, and you should too." Such behavior policing is toxic.

I used to have a severe anxiety disorder that partly stemmed from being overly sensitive about what other people thought about me. I had to consciously dampen down that part of myself, and I feel much, much better about it.

I think instead of getting individuals to avoid offending others, we should instead foster a mentality of resiliency. People get offended far too easily nowadays. They should learn how to stop caring so much about what other people think.

Of course there's a line beyond which you're just a jerk, but to me, just saying "hey guys" doesn't cross it. But that's just me, and I'm in a region of the country where "hey guys" is acceptable.
People want to get up and put their Hu-Card, Turbo-Chip or CD-ROM into their console. That's really the secret sauce here. I don't know if open source hu-card/turbo chip readers exist or if you can use one with the MiSTer. They also want to use their original controllers, but I think this is an easier hurdle to overcome.

It also looks like the Analogue device is cheaper than a DE-10 + necessary modules.
SARS-CoV-2-PLPro: A framework for anti–Covid-19 drug design
The article could do without the emotionally manipulative headline (the newer one seems a bit better: "Widow fights Apple, privacy law in honouring husband's dying wish").

But it really does showcase a growing problem that will only get worse especially as "digital natives" - whose lives are often lived out nearly entirely online - get older.

Seems to me the easiest, most effective way for Apple to handle this in the future would be for the iOS password manager to specify a "next of kin" to pass all credentials to at point of death.

If your primary example is the word 'guys', do you really think your second best replacement is the word 'persons'? Also, I think it's hilarious that a team would pay 15 dollars a month for such a simple tool.
Active listening and participation might be even better. Reiterate the material directly to the teacher (You mean it might work better like this?) and then make a quick draft of what that might look like. In this case the header and footer could be clipped or resized and then working with the modified application might generate additional insights.
This one was always a tricky one for me, trying to create an email to a bunch of people in a friendly manner without using 'hey guys.' It the phrase that feels the most natural to me when speaking to group of people. I personally have always views 'guys' as inclusive of anyone, but I get others may not.

Professionally I have opted to use 'hey all' in 90% of situations because it's about as neutral as you can get. Doesn't feel as natural to me but then I don't run the risk of offending anyone.
"My late teens and early 20’s were influenced by the so-called Intellectual Dark Web - Jordan Peterson, Joe Rogan, Sam Harris and the like."

Given your influences, I'm amazed you've not only recognized this issue, but chose to address it. Even the most liberal among my peers (who are older and grew up without them) hasn't taken this stance. I wonder how you broke free of the "edgelord" bubble and gained this perspective.
We can agree to disagree. To me, Lex is the “whole human” in the sense that he lets his humanity hang out there while talking with very interesting people.

I have mostly worked in the field of AI (practical projects, not much research) since 1982. I feel strongly that AI systems that work with us, augmenting what makes us human and unique, is great. AI systems that aim to forcing human behavior into tight and strict protocols are simply bad. AI helping exploitive surveillance capitalism systems is bad. The human and basic humanity comes first.
If you want to look it up, a lens like this is called a Fresnel lens [0]. You can imagine it as a 'normal' lens, without unnecessary bulk of the material, just keeping the curved surface and a flat backside here. Since this isn't possible while retaining the smooth curvature of a normal lens, it is stepped and has concentric rings of different curvatures instead.

You can find one in front of the flash LED of your smartphone for example.

What is more important is that he improved his results during a small atypical time period.
Complete clickbait headline. The meat is a ways down:

>The company told Noble providing the password would contravene a U.S. law — the Electronic Communications Privacy Act — written back in 1986.

and further

>Citizens of countries that have laws specifically addressing digital assets — including those in the European Union — don't have the same problems. For those people, the terms and conditions of Apple services grant jurisdiction to "the laws and courts of your usual place of residence."

>She[other person] got court orders, first from Ontario and later from a California court. Apple and Bell complied with the Ontario order

FFS. Do people want "Big Tech" to just blow off law, or not? It seems few have any real principles about it, they just want what they want conveniently without considering any further repercussions. The problem here apparently is (A) THEY DIDN'T SAVE THEIR PASSWORDS, (B) outdated US law, and (C) non-existent Canadian law. With A being the most important, particularly given the importance and spread of E2EE, but B & C also important.

Digital is still new enough that we haven't had full generations under our belts yet, dealing with mortality and passing things on could be a lot better organized and smoother. But concerns about people getting into other people's stuff via hacks or social engineering, or mass surveillance, are extremely serious too. Just throwing around blame at the first convenient target is not helpful.
Anti-trust action can't come fast enough. Mobile platforms have been held hostage by Google and Apple for over a decade now, and costs haven't gone down at all.

Trust me, living in Russia, I know a lot more about Putin than you do. However, the truth is the truth.

On an unrelated note: seing fisthand how Putin's propaganda is working in the internet, it is beyond laughable how much power and influence you americans ascribe to Putin. His internet 'troll' factory is not a sophisticated tool for propaganda, it's a blunt factory that simply floods every comment section with low-quality noise. Of all money that were meant to influence the elections, 99% were, without any doubt, simply stolen. Trump's victory in 2016 is not a consequence of some elections meddling, but simply a coincidence.

As one prominent member of russian opposition said (btw I know him personally, as in 'shaking hands personally'), “What is happening with ‘the investigation into Russian interference,’ is not just a disgrace but a collective eclipse of the mind.” [1] [2]

And likewise, the Soviet Union had their "Agat" series of computers that were likewise Apple II clones, but if I recall the Pravetz computers were made in larger quantities.

In my region most cash crop agriculture is being done on land that isn't even owned by the farmer. Most of my neighbours are leasing at least portions of their land out to a farmer, who then in turn subcontracts most work and just manages things.

In that model there is almost no incentive structure for soil maintenance, environmental stewardship, diversification, etc.

Most landowners here aren't even leasing it for the revenue, which is pretty peanuts for cash cropping on smaller plots, but for the indirect benefit of being able to claim farm tax rate instead of regular residential tax rates.

For many years my vineyard, garden, etc. suffered from herbicide drift from next door -- but there was not a single contact I could go to to talk about this, everyone just points the finger, or you can't find the party involved. Responsibility too distributed, etc.
A practical example:

Is a market-based system with strong progressive taxation and a large basic income capitalist? Is it socialist?

IMO it's not obvious and you could argue it either way for both terms.

What I'd like is more like what Tyler Cowen does, on non-tech subjects [1]. He gives the impression of having read all their books (and their opponents') not just having skimmed Wikipedia over breakfast. He keeps it moving, and often gets people a little bit off-balance, not aggressively, but enough to make people think afresh and not just repeat what they always say.

Besides people's work, he'll ask them serious questions about (say) their known interest in some kinds or Jazz, or unrelated things about characters they would have run into at MIT in the 70s, or about the Russian education system. (I presume he has people helping him prepare, but maybe he's just like this all the time.)

Waiting for volunteers can take forever. Better to gamify/crowdsource it.

1. Create navigation app using OpenStreetMaps

2. Add the new routes as red

3. Let user choose a route to walk (warn if he chooses a red one)

4. At the end ask user a few questions (how hard, how pretty, are there shops on the road, how dangerous)

5. Update the route metadata in the App

6. When there's enough data change the color to green and remove warnings

You could even add average speed and sell ads to local pubs/museums/etc.

A hypothetical Covid-2 which is 20x deadlier than this pandemic and kills across all age groups would be a really good candidate to contain via contact tracing well before it reached the point where we needed mass lockdowns - assuming that Covid-19 hasn't totally destroyed trust in the scientific and medical establishments by that point. Remember, 20x deadlier means a lot more people showing up in hospitals, which means a much higher proportion of cases can be detected early on in the pandemic without needing mass testing. Covid-19's fatality rate is probably close to optimal for causing the most damage overall.
I recently visited an Ikea store, and most of the furniture they had on display did not resemble the type of furniture that I associate with Ikea (which is cheap, wood, self-assembled kits or modules that are easy to repair or disassemble for moving). Their offerings have changed a lot over the years, perhaps their show rooms vary according to location, and maybe people are choosing what to buy based upon different criteria these days.
Or indeed grow other crops that might be better suited to the environment in that location.
Really? Even if you do not accept his intelectual firepower which is demonstrated by his credentials and even more so, obvious in any of the public long form conversations he has had, you cannot honestly say he is not a contrarian or a patriot. Come on. His tweeter feed, the people he interviews, the themes he discusses, all of that speaks of love for the country and a rejection of conventional thinking.
please... please stop. i really don't care for all this inclusive language crap and all it is is an attempt to shame people. if you get that easily offended by the way people talk you need to look deep at yourself and see what is the true reason for it. maybe you have deep down self trauma, anger issues or something else that needs to be sort out in therapy. btw... there is _nothing_ wrong in admitting that you have a problem and getting help for it.

what's even funnier is that this whole inclusive language shaming is something i only see in the tech world. perhaps this is because this industry is more ego centric than any other industry, i don't know, but i know a slew of people in the financial world who roll their eyes every time i have conversations about this.
A large company would most certainly consider a computer an asset would they not? Until it is paid off and/or can no longer provide value to them?

Your argument is with medallions is mostly correct. They had an artificial constraint on an environment. With the artificial constraint they act like assets and not permits. However once a good that was equivalent showed up the value of the asset value did fall. A market will tend towards MR=MC (marginal rev=marginal cost). However in the medallion case the supply was artificially constrained. So a floor was created. This moves the price people are willing to pay up the demand curve instead of lower near the usually lower mr=mc spot. In this case as the population grew but the number of allowed taxis did not the price went up because demand went up but supply did not. Once another good showed up that demand curve changed as less people were willing to pay that amount as well as more supply. This is the madness of economics. The demand curve always changes.

Chips are mostly worthless because there are so many of them and better fab equipment exists and the capex of the machines to make them was paid off decades ago. So their depreciation is very quick (much like cars). Rarity does play into price as well. As some people do like the idea of owning a rare thing.

You also have part of it with your comment here. Assets rarely 'hold' value for a long term. If you do not move the value around your total monetary value will depreciate. The medallion case was an artificial constraint so the value rose because demand remained high enough. Once a new supply came in the real price showed up. Housing can act like this too in artificially constrained environments. Rent control, poor tax structures, poor zoning, etc can all cause this. If you get a situation where the owners work with the gov (medallions and the taxi commission and the cities) they will write laws to artificially constrain growth to limit their asset depreciation. That is usually called regulatory capture.

For these sorts of arguments I like to say 'if everyone suddenly had 1 billion dollars what would you pay for a loaf of bread?'. Most people would say '1-2 dollars'. But what about next week when the company realizes people will pay 1000 dollars for one? Would you still buy it? Would your friends? It usually shows that the demand curve is not static and value is a moving market in and of itself.

Where do you get that 1/3 to 1/4 of US yield? In that page they claim comparable yields, and particularly "In 2016, our no-till organic manure systems produced 200 bushels of corn per acre". Average US corn bushels per acre is 176.

He’s a social critic. “What have you actually done?” is the most common non sequitur used to silence critics and dissidents since time immemorial. It’s irrelevant. Anyone is allowed to be a critic. Their accomplishments have no bearing on the veracity of their arguments. That would be an appeal to authority.
Google definitely does.

Yeah it's bettes to plan it. Get some good paste like Arctic or something like that.
Reduce and fold capture the structure, but there is a readability problem with them, which is that the semantics of the accumulation value are often complex and not obvious. It's nice to give the accumulator a descriptive name, but the more complicated the value, the more likely a programmer is to give up and call it something unhelpful like "x" or "accum" instead of "mapOfAccountIdAndSectionIdToCountAndSumAndCountOfTransactionsExceedingLimit".

To make sure code like that is readable, programmers have to declare types even when they're optional, use descriptive names, and use comments when these methods don't suffice. Or in Scala, even declare case classes that are only used in a single complicated expression, which sounds extravagant, but when I've seen it, it turned code that might have taken ten minutes to decipher into code I could cruise right through. Unfortunately, in my experience, this is rare. Often my first step in figuring out someone else's reduce or fold is to guess how I would have done it and then see if their code implements my guess, which is an assembly language level of readability.

There are different tiers of furniture at IKEA. Cheap lines made of particle board. More pricey ones made of good quality solid wood. Middle priced stuff that's somewhere in between.
