Even Fox News wouldn't run the story because it wasn't supported by facts.

Run what story? Fox news has been covering the hard drive since it was released.

And yes, no concrete evidence of wrong doing, but if you read Glenn's email, he clearly states that "something smells rotten" and the editors response is "we won't even allow pointed questions about Biden".

Glenn is offering the Biden camp more benefit of the doubt than the MSM has offered Trump when random allegations arise.

That's the issue - the MSM holds up "journalistic integrity" when it suits their political candidate. That's not integrity at all. That's just corruption of the what journalism is supposed to be.

This is an unfortunately sad low point for some on HN. Hopefully next year we can have a meta-conversation about this thread, where the post-election facts landed, and gain some insight into how media and the political climate got some people so off the rails.

Maybe "The Mandarin" was authentic, I don't think I went there, but having lived in SF for 11 years I never found any authentic asian food in SF. I found some in Fremont. There's plenty in San Gabriel, Alhambra, and other places on the north east side of LA but SF, nothing. No authentic Japanese, no authentic Chinese, no authentic Vietnamese, no authentic Korean, no authentic Taiwanese, no authentic Malay/Singapore/Indonesian.
The basis of the disagreement hinges on your original claim that "compression is a process that is adiabatic, generating no entropy" which doesn't have any valid basis. Nothing about even the definition of compression that you provided above implies that compression is or isn't by definition isentropic (also, adiabatic and isentropic are not the same thing). Are you trying to argue that flow passing through a shock is not compressed by passing through the shock?

I'm also struggling to understand your point about the hypersonic density ratio limit. You keep repeating it but how specifically does it support your argument?
Globalist is a commonly used dog-whistle to talk about Jews which itself lacks a clear and useful definition.

Neoliberal has a clear definition. "Top 1% of the 1%" has a clear meaning. "Globalist" does not. "Globalism" isn't an ideology so far so I understand it.

For that reason I understand it to be a word that signals something about the writer more so than it describes something about the subject. But I could be overfitting this curve.

I think it is the other way around. There are fewer advertisers than subscribers, so the publication's strategy tends to get optimized towards keeping those few(er) people happy.
I think with this The Intercept has lost all its credibility as the outlet that will publish stories others will not.

It's clear that Hunter Biden's data was compromised. The data that I have seen is definitely real and definitely his. The provenance of this data is unclear. It's also a common technique to compromise data and doctor a couple of documents to slip in among-st the real ones. My opinion is that it's some kind of a cloud service hack given the type of information that was compromised (video, photos, sms logs, emails.)

I have seen scant little coverage of this in the mainstream, or even alternative, media. Why can't they address what is verifiable in this story and add a codicil that some of it may be false?
I was just thinking about companies in general, not specific to biotech. I have zero experience with biotech.

> my feed is nothing but wonderfully enriching videos all tailored to my hobbies and interests

The ad part I agree quite well with. However, I find that Youtube's recommendation algorithm is quite lacking. I mean this is also the case with Netflix and other social media I have used so not just Youtube's fault (only one that sticks out as better is TikTok).

For me, it tends to simply repeatedly recommend way too similar videos. If I somehow happen to watch a video about aa tech review, my feed will be tech reviews and that's it. Heaven forbid I make the mistake of clicking some random political video, and I am now in a hole where my feed is full of right-wing, anti-vaxxers, and conspiracy theorists and so on.

In general, it seems like Youtube's algo gets quite quickly to the local minimum/maximum but then struggles to look around or away from it. This leads to very a insular and locked-in-your-own-box experience.
I know you meant one meal a day, but I read this as one mead a day and it was so really fun confusion.

SF is big on sauces and spices and has a wide variety of cuisine in general and it might have become a very localized taste to stay competitive on the flavor explosion people look for and compare experiences with.

I’ve had a variety of cuisine from chefs that had the same restaurant in their home country, I also went to their home country and tried the same dish at the same restaurant and found it comparatively bland. Off the top of my head I can only think of a ramen spot in Japan.

I'm "only" 61, so I've got a bit of the hill to descend yet. I can assure you my desire to learn hasn't changed a lot. The ability ability absorb new stuff has diminished, but it's made up for by the shear number of patterns I've learnt over the years allowing me to discover the mechanism they are trying to explain far faster than I was able to do it when young.

The end result is now I happily sit down with my son and enthusiastically try to get through machine learning papers (something he needs to keep up with). I still pick it up, well pick up at least the bits either of us understand, faster than him.

I agree with another poster here though. My tolerance for the learning fluff that may not be useful in 5 years time has all but vanished, and yes the prime example of that is JavaScript frameworks. Nothing wrong with a good JavaScript framework of course but as I heard a speaker introducing his framework say, they have the lifetime of split milk.
Vega author here. We actually disagree with the last part.

For visual analysis tools (not just UI charting library), having the ability to quickly summarize data is very useful for analyses (esp exploratory ones).

I don't have any studies handy but here's what I remember from looking into this. IF does not lead to more weight loss than other diets when you match calories. At least some forms of IF also have lower adherence than simple caloric restriction.

My own anecdata suggests that I have better adherence to IF than regular caloric restriction. YMMV. The diet that helps you lose the most weight will be the one you follow closest.

I’m confused. I think Troy has been pretty open about his relationship with 1Password and NordVPN.

Yeah, that's a good point.

I still stand by my intuition that if a 1 degree rise since 1900 didn't cause mass migrations, another 0.5 degrees seems unlikely to.

I think we can agree things are going to get worse and that kind of mass migration might happen over a longer time period. Just not in the next 30 years.

Huh. I saw Glenn's response as pretty measured, except for the follow up after his first email where he gets a bit heated.

I thought his point by point rebuttal was pretty effective - he basically said "if you think my allegations aren't tempered enough, then suggest how to temper them further, don't just remove them entirely".

Again, it's the two-faced approach the media is taking. Rumor about Trump gets front page coverage, then someone asks about sources and you realize there are none. Try the same with Biden and you get "there is no story here. all disinformation".

Why two standards for two different leaders?

That's the gist of it.

This free textbook is a pretty good one on general computer networking: http://intronetworks.cs.luc.edu/current2/html/

I find it hard to get a good single source on Linux networking as the situation tends to change fast enough to make big efforts into documenting it out of date just as they're finished. You can learn a lot by messing around at home though if you have a couple spare machines. These days it might be a better choice to focus on software-defined networking, but so much of SDN is proprietary that it's hard to feel great about learning it.
Glenn Greenwald was able to post his article to substack in its unedited form and link it to his 1.5 million Twitter followers earlier today.

From a pure scientific underlying root method - I agree with you.

The problem I see is if this question is the only one, the immediate second question becomes - does Intermittent Fasting produce the same results? requiring an additional study.

From a practical implementation, this research is better suited to everyday life. Intermittent Fasting as a system is way easier to implement at scale than calorie counting.

The "current hotness" always gets praise, while the penultimate hotness gets piles of scorn.

I think the JS ecosystem is fading in hotness - not sure exactly where everyone is going, but Go, Rust, and Python all seem pretty hot these days, so we'll see.

Regardless, that means Ruby/Rails is no longer the penultimate hotness, it's merely a boring old technology that does what it does.

And it turns out, Ruby is a lovely language (with its flaws), and Rails is a useful and impressively productive framework (which has cast a long shadow on the entire web development world).

So I think the narrative is warming back up.
Anecdata:

I have followed IF with a 1100 calorie deficit per day by only eating 1200 calories at dinner for 3 months. This translated to more than 1kg weight loss per week, pretty reliably. Overall I lost 17kg. I adjusted the TDEE and calorie values as needed to maintain the weight loss speed.

The weight loss was extremely fast, but so was the rate at which I lost lean mass. This makes sense, as I didn't exercise much, aside from occasional long walks / 1 mile run. According to this study [0], exercising should maintain lean muscle mass.

My personal observations are in line with the studies I have read about IF.

Some other observations I have made:

* The rate at which I gained 75% of the weight back was stunning to me. It was as fast as I lost it.

* My partner does not feel well when fasting, so IF doesn't work for everyone. I think it worked well for me. I did supplement with vitamins to account for the decreased amount of food intake.

* I noticed that whenever I had alcohol, while still adhering to the daily calorie limit, my weight would not go down until about 3 days have passed. I had assumed alcohol would only contribute its caloric energy, but, sure enough, every time I had a beer, I could see in the weight graph a bump that lasted for about 3 days, then the weight would suddenly jump down to where I was expecting it to be, based on the weight loss slope.

Amazon prices for uncommon/rare items can get wierd.

There was an issue a while ago with resellers that would look for items on amazon, and create a duplicate listing with a slightly higher price. If they got an order, they could buy the item from another amazon seller, and onsell the item for a profit.

This broke in a predictably amusing way when there were only a few vendors for an item, and all of them were doing the same thing - each vendor updating their price to be higher than the others, quickly spiralling up to ludicrous values.
