Rightfully dislike yes. They have a very long history of making the wrong decision almost universally, being a monopolist and abusive towards suppliers and customers.

People are afraid that they will do that again after relying on them as a foundation for their product or experience based on some trite promise of "we changed". So when something happens, the attribution and a hypothesis is already formed.

Unfortunately, based on my experiences attempting to fight their universal telemetry, the promise they made is invalid. So why should I trust any of their other promises? I think a lot of people are there too.

Isn't this basically how those single-use hand warmers work? Fine iron powder reacts with air/moisture?

Sounds pretty useless given that a) Elemental iron does not occur naturally on earth b) It requires a lot of energy, usually fossil fuels to make it.
> - There's no doubt that Twitter and Facebook has been uncritically spreading false rumors about Trump only to turn right around and supress the H.Biden leaks, even after it was clear at least some of the juicy mails was cryptographically verified. If Twitter had been posting a warning everytime someone pretended the "fine folks on both sides" hoax then they would have been in a better position now. Same if they had come up with the rule against hacked materials when Trumps tax papers supposedly leaked.

Do you have a link that refers to this cryptographic verification? Last time I saw this talked about on HN, the summary was that there really wasn't even an ounce of evidence, and that the people who supposedly had it were not sharing it for no good reason, so I'd be interested if there has actually been a proper verification of this.

> have finally started to improve lives of people in the midwest - without hurting the coasts

What do you mean, and what's the source for this? Again I'm not that informed about this topic, so I'm genuinely curious about a source. That's also the problems when half his tweets make the headlines: that skews the information towards what he says rather than what he does, and given the votes of this election I tend to think that (at least the perception of) the latter is better than the former.
Sure, but as I've said a couple times already, the issue is that the go team have indicated they _would_ accept major changes (they explicitly said they would on generics for a long while, which I suggest is just not true, and actually had people work on modules stuff then just stiffed them with their own solution -
See Sam Boyer's (long) twitter thread on the whole go dep thing - https://twitter.com/sdboyer/status/1034893100450291713).

Either they should say 'nope the BDFL accepts nothing significant except from the go core team' or they should change their ways. You can't have both.

Obviously other languages do manage the balance - eg. python, rust, so it's possible but I totally accept that given go's minimalism and opinionated approach they might not want that. But be honest about it.

And good luck reverting a released kernel buried on a server :) especially once users start relying on e.g. a syscall. You might find that it's not quite as different as you want it to be...

No you're incorrect, and drawing a false distinction between spending company money on growth instead of profits, and other business expenses. There is no distinction for tax purposes, nor should there be.
Some industrial processes require very high temperatures, for which electrical generation is ill suited. Glass furnaces are one such case. Having an efficient local energy delivery mechanism that may be "recharged" with electricity is quite interesting.

I don't imagine beer production requiring such high temperatures, but honestly I don't know anything about industrial beer production. Anyhow the tech presented in the article is very cool.
> It looks like you don't,

I'm sorry to say but your insistence of speaking out of a position of blisful ignorance and your refusal to open your eyes does not change the world around you.

> but I've always seen Docker Hub as...well...a hub, not just any ol' registry.

No one with the faintest cursory knowledge of Docker would ever claim that Docker Hub is anything other than a docker registry.

Docker itself advertises Docker Hub as a service "to create, manage, and deliver your teams' container applications." Docker itself describes Docker Hub as a "cloud-based application registry and development team collaboration services." That's their own official marketing slogan, taken straight out of their "Why Docker" page.

And even that you managed to miss and failed to understand.

> It's where people publish final builds

It really isn't. That's not how containers work at all, and that's not how Docker promotes the service, and that's not how anyone uses it. Nothing in your comments is even remotely compatible with basic notions of CICD.

Apparently you're so out of touch with containerization and CICD and devops workflow that you're even entirely ignorant of basic concepts like what a latest tag is supposed to represent and how tags are used to update apps.

The fact that you try to pass off that absurd assertion in such absolute terms makes it quite clear that you have absolutely no idea about what you're talking about.

Hell, your claim can only possibly be made by someone who never even registered a user account in Docker Hub. Please refrain from speaking about stuff you know nothing about.

> If you're using it for basically passing your own images between CI workers or whatever other workload that requires you to constantly be pushing and pulling

This mindless statement just makes it clear as water that you have no idea of how containers are used. At all. And yet here you are degrading the signal/noise ratio by blabbering about stuff you know nothing about.
Maybe they can cut out the middle-man and just burn coke, which does not need to be stored in a sealed container
> and they’re hopefully more sophisticated than the usual religious tripe you’ve heard before...

He's missed the point. The boundary line between human and embryo is largely arbitrary. It could be reasonably drawn anywhere from conception through to birth, and speculative arguments could be made outside those boundaries.

It isn't 'religious tripe' for a group of people to decide to draw an arbitrary line arbitrarily. It is very good strategy though, religions rely on high birth rates to sustain themselves. The Catholic church did not get where it is today by discouraging the birth of more Catholics.

It’s strange to me that so many intellectuals talk about this position as if it’s something difficult to defend. Or the territory of religious fanatics. Personal feelings aside, most of the pro-choice arguments seem like weak equivocation, and even some of the stronger ones don’t hold up very well because they would apply to babies as much as foetuses.
The most important take away from this is that electrical energy can be easily "multiplied" into thermal energy by using it to move around the almost unlimited thermal energy contained in the environment around us.

For example, a water-water heat pump can easily boost the temperature of your reactor to 80 deg C by using only 1 KWh of electricity for every 4KWh of heat delivered, the rest coming from a nearby large body of water and slowly recovered from the environment throughout the year. So we are looking at on order of magnitude more heat for the same electrical consumption 40% vs 400% efficiency. Instantanous renewable energy prices are low, but rarely that low.

The limit of efficiency is dictated by the boost in temperature needed, so you can't use heat pumps to get the 1000C generated by iron oxidation. There is certainly a niche for industrial processes requiring very high temperatures, but I can't imagine why on earth would a brewery need such temperatures.
How much beer do they really need at the iron electrolysis plant? :)

If anything can be said about the breakdown of mail-in ballots vs in-person voting it is that the former favours Biden. NV is likely to be a bit more balanced, but in no instance so far has a vote total moved towards Trump (dems told people to vote early by mail and a lot of what remains to be counted is from large urban districts that trend Democratic.)

Ask HN: How do you hack meetings?
I know many of us hate meetings. However, sometimes it is impossible to avoid classical 3-10 person meetings. I think we would all gain from making them better, so I feel it is worth asking :

Which actions do you do to contribute the most as an leader or as a participant ?
Any ressource to improve the fastest on the subject ?
I have a workflow where I do my composing in Musescore, export to musicxml & convert with musicxml2ly to Lilypond, and finally do the typesetting there.

I basically throw away everything in the generated .ly files except the notes. But saves a lot of effort regardless.

I never found a a Lilypond -> Musescore conversion that worked really well. I did write a very simply tool based on python-ly to at least get the 'notes' to musicxml so that I can import something into Musescore.
If youtube-dl disagrees with the takedown, they need to take it up with the RIAA. If the RIAA - or a judge - decides in favor of youtube-dl, Github can restore the repository.

This is how things work; it may not be how you'd like things to work, but I doubt you've ever been involved in any part of a DMCA takedown request (as the sender, receiver, or the person that had their stuff taken down).

> but if the combustion is just used generate electricity

This is where the brewery angle is interesting, since (as others have mentioned as well) what brewing needs is mostly heat for boiling. Combustion gives you heat directly.
All this "calling races" bullshit is only because the ballot counting process is so utterly fucked up in the US. I live in Germany. When there is an election for federal or state parliament, polls close at 6 PM and results appear around 8-10 PM on the websites of the state election offices. Somewhere around midnight, the "preliminary official result" is released. (The official result follows about a week later, after the routine recounts are done, but they never differ by more than a few votes.)

We do also have predictions on TV as soon as the polls close at 6PM, and they are always off by a few percentage points, but they rapidly converge, especially because the official results come so fast. By 8 PM there is not much chance for surprises (maybe one or two parliament seats get reallocated as percentages shift), by 10 PM the predictions have pretty much reached their final destination.

(And by the way, we have a ton of mail-in ballots, too. The federal supreme court ruled in 2009 that everyone can have a mail-in ballot if they want, so it's getting more popular every election.)

If a citizen wants to check the election process, they can go to any polling place (including the ones where mail-in ballots are counted) and watch the polling workers count the paper ballots. The volunteers are obligated to announce the final tallies to all citizens that are present to observe. (There are not always people present, but I've seen it happen a few times when volunteering as a polling worker.)

Then afterwards they can go to the state election office's website and verify that the same numbers appear for that particular voting district. I've done it once just to see how the verification process works, and I think the whole process is very easy to understand and verify for every citizen.
When this happens for humans, I predict that we would also see parallel development of tests which ensure that a potential mate does not have gene drives in their genome.
If you truly believe abortion is wrong but is better than the alternative of bringing unwanted children into the world, then you should also support fathers having the right to opt out from supporting a child they didn't want.

This would act as a strong incentive for women to think twice before bringing a child into the world by themselves, with a father who resents them. Fatherlessness and a lack of positive male role models is a real issue in certain communities (cough black America).

Funnily enough, this argument never flies, because "the interests of the child" is the excuse for why "the interests of the mother" take precedence.
Historical evidence shows this to be factual.
Linux very famously does not break user space. The has been very few exceptions historically for serious bugs, executables should run no matter how old they are.

Even after migrating to a new executable format, Linux still has optional support to load the old format some 25 years later.

In comparison, Go does breaking changes from time to time, but it is also a much younger project. In general, comparing a language syntax with an api is hard to draw meaningful conclusions from.

And yes, social and mainstream media has inflamed everything by misrepresenting Trump's side.

But let's not remove his guilt: he has said (in a speech that SHOULD be censored by both mainstream AND social media) that he won this election, and won't accept its results. This is ACTUALLY fascism (a word that's thrown around wrongly many times): for years the people's voice has been heard, and now we have a leader (and many supporters) that don't support a democratic system anymore. That's fine, democracy isn't the only available system, but it's a hallmark of the USA.

That article seems OK on it's own, but what a weird title, it's not at all supported by the article. Nothing in the article says vaporware or describes anything that could be said to be vaporware.

V could maybe use "misleading marketing" at best, but it's in no way vaporware, as if it was, the author would not be able to perform all the things they did in the blogpost.

It's also over a year old, would love to see the author to revisit the claims of V like they did in the post, but with the latest versions.
Just when you think that 2020 couldn't be more complicated... playing with floridian ecosystems and trophic chains at large scale.

One that doesn't claim that will now follow scientific advice because "scientists are idiots and I know much better".

The 3-Phase Time-Off Schedule for Contractors
This person should have had a discussion with my former mother-in-law, she could have told him how back in Ceausescu's time she had to ride the train back to her home town (returning from Bucharest) with a piece of cotton wool between her legs, which piece of cotton wool had become all red because of the blood once she had reached her destination. All that because she had just had an illegal abortion in Bucharest, her home town was too small for that and everybody knew everybody, she could have gone to jail if word had come out.

Or I could tell this person my story from approximately 25 years ago, I was going through my parents' papers/files for whatever reason (as bored adolescents do from time to time) only to find a paper signed by the former Communist Police (I was doing all that in the '90s, after Ceausescu's fall) which was informing my mother that the official police inquiry about her having had a possible abortion was stopped. Yey! No risk of my mum going to jail! Of course that my mother had never told me about that (she still hasn't, in the meantime), I tried to put one and one together and connect that time when she was interned in the local hospital supposedly with pneumonia with maybe her having had an abortion then, I guess I'll never know for sure.

All this to say that trying to ban abortions (supposedly by criminalising it, I don't see any other way) is worse than criminal, it's inhuman. And if people like the person who wrote this blog-post would have bothered to actual ask the women themselves what they think (I mean, the women who actually had abortions in the first place) he might have learned what my ex-MIL told me and my former wife numerous times, i.e. that she constantly had nightmares about having done them.

I listened to a podcast where Geoff Huston argued that the address space of IPv6 when compared to IPv4 isn't going to give us as much runway as people suspect:

https://pca.st/episode/a1df7379-853f-4b5b-af5d-fcb6ad7e1390

Can anyone let me know if he is wrong? It really challenged my perception that IPv6 seriously future proofed the need for a larger address space.

In my simple peasant brain I always associate "ownership" with a simple chunk of memory, not with "objects" as in OOP.

As soon as a piece of code "knows" about this chunk of memory it has certain responsibilities, like not randomly scribbling over values or freeing the memory while others pieces of code might attempt the same.

"Ownership" and "Move Semantics" are entirely artificial conventions to give some structure to those responsibilties. Casting those conventions into "hard language rules" introduces tradeoffs, evaluating those tradeoffs is important when deciding what language to use to solve certain problems. And this is where Rust comes in. Rust just enforces a couple of such "made up" conventions, none of those rules are dictated by the "real world" (e.g. the hardware the code runs on)... it's easy to get all tangled up in theoretical concepts like type systems, and functional programming, but in the end the only thing that counts is the machine code that's running on a concrete CPU. Sometimes I feel that language designers are losing sight on this simple reality ;)
