>If people do not truly know how protective a vaccine is, there is the potential for harm because they may assume that they are fully protected when they are not, and accordingly, alter their behavior to take unnecessary risks.

Amazing, this statement could equally apply to recommending mask wearing. Seems like the prudent answer in both cases is "public education" on risk.
What you're missing is that the leaf is designed to be cheaper than a tesla. That's not hard to work out. A Bugatti veyron goes for a lot more than a specced out mercedes S-class because they're designed to be sold to different markets.

The leaf's entertainment system, for example, does the job it's intended to do fine, the tesla one is designed to innovate.

They are empirically desirable because they've sold half a million of them.
It isn’t cut and dry. What the newspapers did was very clearly investigative journalism. But it is argued that investigative journalism requires some sort of care and responsibility when dealing with the safety of others. Assange’s classified data dumps did not redact names and details that could/did put people in danger. Is simply broadcasting information investigative journalism? Maybe. What if amongst the documents there were lists of names/locations of persecuted minority populations within an authoritarian country? Is it journalism to simply publish the list, giving the country greater ability to target those people? Or does it require using that information expose the targeting and the implications of why that list exists and what the implications are while protecting the identities of the vulnerable people?

I don’t think anyone is arguing that a lot of the information was valuable and needed to be brought to light. The “devil is in the details” of how it was done and what responsibility was taken on his part.
Is it? They did claim this back in the 60s, however the logic seemed a little handy to be believable.

Some armchair logic would say it is a mistake to ignore sleep-deprived workers when measuring what is “good for business”. It is also a mistake to ignore the health impact of teenagers that are forced to wake up before sunrise bigger part of the year now. My armchair logic says that you should expect a rise in depression, especially among teenagers. And that seems kind of bad for business, when workers have to deal with their teenage children being more depressed.

Remember not long ago when Uber killed a pedestrian?

https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-54175359

> Ms Vasquez was charged on 27 August, and made her first appearance in court on 15 September. The trial is now set for February next year.

> Despite the decision not to levy criminal charges against Uber itself, the company did not escape criticism.

> Days before the crash, an employee had warned his superiors that the vehicles were unsafe, were routinely in accidents, and raised concerns about the training of operators.

> Following the crash, authorities in Arizona suspended Uber's ability to test self-driving cars on the state's public roads, and Uber ended its tests in the state. It received permission to carry out tests in the state of California earlier this year.

So despite all the safety failures by the company, just the hired driver was charged...
MySQM? MySQL presumably? Anyway MVCC is implemented via locks (among other things, like copying, transaction ids, visibility maps, etc).

Regardless of that, my main point is that even reading requires transactional bookkeeping in the database - which some people don't realise. If you read a row and, do nothing and then rollback a few ms later (common in webapps) there is still bookkeeping to be done.

I think you've hit on something that a lot of the detractors of Tesla have seemed to have forgotten. The alternatives are Ford, Chevy, Honda and Toyota. While I fully understand that Tesla is no titan of the little man and Musk is a very flawed man, compared to the titans of industry and the sins of the past that these companies are responsible for, it's a little odd that so much vitriol gets thrown toward Tesla and not these companies who are, ever so slowly, switching from diesel and gas powered automobiles.

I haven't even mentioned how Tesla is the only company that doesn't sponsor at least one (I think they all sponsor multiple) traditionally powered racing teams, whose development goes into premium powered, traditional gas powered automobiles. Plus the advertisement of said vehicles.
> Is there any research that shows this?

Yes, a lot. It's well summarized here:

https://justgetflux.com/research.html
> Laundering implies transition from "dirty" to "clean".

But this doesn't really work directly with fiat anyway. If a million dollars suddenly appears in your bank account and the IRS wants to know where it came from, and your answer is "I sold some Bitcoin" their next question is where you got the Bitcoin.

Money laundering works with front companies. Your front company is e.g. an electronics retailer. Your foreign supplier is in on it. You transfer money to them for a truck full of televisions and game consoles, but when the truck comes, it has twice as many as you could ordinarily get for that amount of money because you paid for the rest under the table.

Then you sell the products and get clean money. It used to require a truck full of cash or diamonds going the other way, now it's cryptocurrency. That's what they're complaining about. They used to be able to catch that truck crossing the border with a hundred thousand dollars in cash, now they can't. But you can't stop that by regulating exchanges or anything else that law abiding people are doing.

> If every point of contact between cryptocurrency and a regulated entity requires full KYC, those illicit funds can be prevented from entering the regulated economy.

You can't get there when cryptocurrency is used internationally. The foreign entity selling the criminal organization the televisions isn't subject to KYC regulations in its own country. Or it is on paper but that country's government is corrupt and looks the other way.

It also doesn't actually solve the problem even if you managed to do that. Suppose the cryptocurrency of unspecified origin is prohibited from being used above board in the US. So then it isn't worth as much. Great, then it can be acquired for a lower price; doesn't impact its utility as a medium of exchange. And then the criminals still use it for that and the electronics wholesaler in Russia doesn't really care that the cryptocurrency it receives can only be used in Russia because that's where it is anyway.

All the regulations do is make things harder for people who follow the law.
You would mail in your CV, and the HM wouldn't be the one receiving them if you did hand them in.
So, house price, Z = [Re] + [Im]

Where Real part is down payment and Imaginary part is land price?

Seriously though, this has been the situation in the UK for a long time. Today the down payment is equivalent to price of the house in the 1970's.
I think it's pretty safe to assume that a lot of places would follow the US's example if this law passes, and Canada is by far the most likely to do so. I don't think the US is responsible for that, per se, but it's not crazy to treat it as a given that Canada would follow suit.
No you are not missing anything. I am an EU citizen residing in the UK, but I was and still am Austrian by nationality and only hold an Austrian citizenship. Luckily I never fancied a .eu domain, but if the EU would have prematurely revoked my domain then I'd be very unhappy. I find the EU mostly very incompetent. Great ideas, but terrible execution on literally every matter.

EDIT:

I'm being downvoted because I have an honest opinion which isn't nationalistic. That's quite funny. I don't see myself as any particular nationality. I don't see myself as having a strong allegiance towards the EU, Austria, the UK or Poland (my cultural heritage). If the EU sucks at something (and unfortunately they do that a lot) then I'm not afraid to point it out. Patting people on the back and pretending that they are awesome when they actually suck isn't going to help anyone. Sometimes it's best to be brutally honest, especially if it's people who are unelected and the only way to show discontent is through voice and not ballot.
At 13, when most kids start high school? I'd say a large majority of children at that age are able to (at minimum) wait alone for a school bus†, but not all of them.

I'm very much in favor of giving kids more freedom at younger ages, for privileges well above waiting alone for a bus. But I think it depends on the kid, and schools are for everyone.

† Assuming there is a school bus.
> Who cares what the clock says?

People whose schedules are dictated by another entity, such as a school or employer.
because just about every single person in the comments is bashing this?
That's assuming that we have already seen the worst-case outcome for a rushed vaccine - which I don't think is true. Human medicine is sufficiently complex that its negative consequences are extremely ripe for black swan events.

From that perspective, your argument falls in the same hole as Ben's: based on a retrospective view of bounded outcomes, you are trying to argue about unbounded future events. The real risk of a rushed vaccine rollout is not a repeat of the 1976 incident, but a medical disaster which is unpredictably and massively worse. Modern medical red tape exists precisely because of the risk of such disasters.
I suspect that a lot of HN readers may not be aware that this is just the latest example of DSL's used for "live coding" music.

There are others that have been around for a lot longer and have incorporated many (all?) of the features you will start to long for if you use this sort of tool a lot.

Live-coding is an insanely geeky way to make music, but there are people out there doing quite interesting things with it. I use "interesting" deliberately ... I haven't heard anything that I've actually liked :)
Yes, patents stopped fulfilling their societal contract decades ago. I do no think anything critical necessarily relies on them being a thing.

As for copyright, though.... a large part of the downsides lie with having to do bookkeeping and such. I'd argue for a total elimination of copyright, only keeping some very basic anti-plagiarism clauses (don't copy and then claim it was you who did it). They have to rely on intent, however. Accidentally reciting a joke and thinking you came up with it has to be very far from the grey zone.

Trademarks are a vehicle for reputation and trust in a market, see e.g. how you can't buy poor quality tools branded "Knipex", or how Samsung is know to not employ overly deceptive branding/advertising for their portable flash media, along with being known for at least decent reliability.

No, not really. People are still readily getting loans with far less than 10%.
This is a good point. I didn’t want to mention it since I’d only ever seen internet claims, but you prompted me to do a new quick search and it’s true:

Apparently tobacco is so hard to quit not just because of the nicotine, but because of the MAOIs. Maybe coffee is the same. Every time I’ve quit caffeine, I’ve kept up decaf.
Well, the worst case scenario of not approving the vaccine is that the virus mutates into an airborne monstrosity with near instant fatality. So not approving the vaccine also makes no sense.

Ultimately, any optimization strategy that depends on using just the worst case without the probability of the worst case to optimize on is going to rapidly find itself unable to optimize because the worst case has cost infinity with every path.

It might be better in the short term, but after a while an angry mob starts banging on your doors.
I'm from New England, I grew up with the informal definition and was super surprised when I heard the formal one.
Getting a 10% downpayment in CA, for example, is almost the cost of an entire house in the midwest.
Is there a reason you decided to start from scratch with this DSL rather than implement one of the many other live coding DSLs on top of Tone.js ? Some specific vision of the end point, or just a desire to start from the beginning?
I am not sure if you realize it, but you are proving my point. Banks found a way to address the issue without adversely affecting the customers. Github appears to have only recently started to do the same, but they opted for a blanket approach as opposed to a more targeted one.
Thank you for sharing your experience. My country is doing a soft migration, with some places now refusing cash, but I don't care about them or can use help, and larger places like supermarkets having "no cash" and "cash only" checkout lanes, the latter being faster.

Have you experimented with not using your phone for a day or a week and seeing how far you get looking for alternatives? They're usually around, just not immediately apparent, like the "x" button on ads.
Way less clicks for "Discover" than "Learn"

My expectations were low enough because of the "5 minutes" part, and I actually found it to be better than expected.
No. You have to pay the loan back. You cannot just walk away.

I know several people in Denmark that were “stuck” with the house they were in after the price drops from the 2008 crisis until prices rose above the mortgages again.

You can probably make a deal with the bank somehow at higher interests, but they’ll want there money back.

You can also declare bankruptcy, but that is not simple and not without long term consequences I think.
I've attempted to use many different Android programming environments on my tablet and they're all terrible compared to basic Linux tools and VSCode.

It's in fact more profitable to lend at 0%, because of negative interest at the central banks, negative interest for government bonds and even negative interest for certain corporate bonds. Combined with the immense cost of hoarding massive amounts of physical cash, there aren't many options left.

While a corporate bond can go sour and a government bond may well be legally wiped out, a mortgage is at least collateralized with the property. Assuming that that the negative interest rate regime continues - which it most likely will - property prices will be driven up even further. Even if the mortgage goes into default, the repossessed property may end up being worth even more at that point.
Honestly, for teenagers it's a separate issue, which should be fixed simply by changing the start times for high schools to be a couple of hours later. It shouldn't be confused with the DST issue.

And if we can get DST all year round (which I'm personally all-for), it could help be the impetus to finally shift high school times.

The fact of the matter is, our sleep schedules are determined largely by our school/work schedules. Simply from the popularity of DST in the summer, it seems clear that people do prefer for society to coordinate to wake up an hour earlier in order to have an extra hour of daylight at the end of the day.

Here in the northeast, it's horrible in the winter when it's dark by 4:30 pm. For a lot of people, it's a huge life upgrade to change that to 5:30 pm.
Let's just skip the standard/DST debate entirely...

<sarcasm>Sunrise is 0800, for each time zone. The daily clock runs from there until next sunrise, when it resets to 0800 from whatever time it reached.

Now no one has a consistent local time, and we'll run on UTC +-x if the precise time is needed, and on local sunrise clocks for everyday scheduling and time telling.

There's a consistent amount of snlight in the morning so people can choose when to get up relative to sunrise, and SAD people / evening sun people get what they want when there actually IS sun to be had.
</sarcasm>
To me, it has to be "being presently allocated". Otherwise, any reseller based in the EU could act as middleman and make .eu available for any entity in the world by transferring the rights after registration, which goes obviously against the intent of the rule.
> A better comparison would be the swine flu vaccine in 1976.

I don't see how we can know that this is representative of the worst possible outcomes.

All that changing the time on the clock does is change our schedule.

If you'd like to both switch to year-round DST and also move everyone's professional start times an hour later, I'm definitely on board... but you should realize that you've effectively moved us to permanent standard time!
I think that the relevant axis on which to evaluate countries' default attitude towards COVID and technological progress isn't authoritarianism vs. freedom, but rather peacetime vs. wartime mindset.

FDA approval processes (and many of the other governmental processes in liberal democracies) are built around peacetime opportunity costs. They prioritize safety over rushing to get a vaccine out the door. When the opportunity cost changes (i.e., there is a new global pandemic and lives are on the line) those institutions have trouble updating their behavior accordingly.

Conversely, authoritarian regimes are much more militant. You see this in China's approach not only to the virus, but in audacious economic initiatives (e.g. Belt & Road) and the defense of its political ideology on the world stage.

That mindset is actually similar to the democracies that have responded best to COVID. Israel (very much a "wartime" country - mandatory military service, surrounded by its enemies, etc.) is blowing the rest of the world out of the water in its vaccination implementation. In normal times, it is a powerhouse of innovation, largely due to elite technological groups in the military. South Korea (another country with mandatory military service, enemy with nukes to the north) had a great COVID response. And Taiwan, a country that faces constant existential threat from China,

> [E]xhibited the exact same sort can-do attitude alongside a free press, elections, and pig intestines in the legislature.

The US last had a "wartime" mindset during WW2. Many of the innovations in the following period (nuclear physics, space race, computers, etc.) can be directly attributed to the massive mobilization effort and public-private partnerships of the time.

So the question to ask is: How do we cultivate the wartime mindset that leads to innovation? And if COVID can't catalyze this, what can?
Have you tried Rust?

The ABI in Rust is doable: https://people.gnome.org/~federico/blog/rust-stable-abi.html

And it doesn't feel like C++ when writing it. The syntax and language features are nice and feel modern.

It does require more attention because of what it compiles down to, but the compiler is there to help with it.

I haven't been excited about any programming languages in years, but Rust has certainly taken my attention lately.
“Daylight savings time” is a bit of a misnomer as commonly used, particularly in this case. What people generally find frustrating, and what this change is addressing, is the twice-yearly time change. People (and businesses and the like) will still schedule things when it makes sense for them. Whether a meeting is at 9:00 or 10:00 or some other number isn’t the real point.
Your Whatsapp running on an Android emulator doesn't need to have any access to the SIM card. You only need to have the SIM card on some phone so you can enter the code you're receiving by textwhen signing in for the first time.

You can then use a bridge to connect it to Matrix and chat using Whatsapp from any Matrix client.
Second idea: I want to store desktop icons in expandable groups much like how a smartphone does.

Fences by Stardock (https://www.stardock.com/products/fences/) does that, doesn't quite look like how a smartphone does but it is essentially the same.

Of course, you could just create folders on your desktop (or taskbar) for a not so great solution.

But yes, having Windows natively support that feature would be better.
Right, but it's 12 on average (with an average half-hour displacement in either direction).

I sincerely disagree that sunrise and sunset are more important. We can shift business hours, which would probably look like the federal government changing its hours and everyone else following. I think that's much more logical than saying "eh, we're going to arbitrarily pick solar noon to be 1PM now so that the big hand on the clock will point to a number we find aesthetically pleasing".
