Aside from vitality, which in part is achieved by recommending content that users already like, I think that we are not well equipped to handle our own views being consistently reinforced. I believe this locks us into world views that are closed off from debate and scrutiny, and unless we intentionally try to question our own beliefs we’ll just be fed the content we already like and the opinions we already agree with / have.

I think you make a very interesting point about the impact of vitality over the long term, and I would like to read some of your thoughts about where we are headed, what can be done about it and why. I haven’t heard of Marshall McLuhan before.
The stories seem a bit different - maybe it's an older rating algorithm?

Thanks Yale for this puff piece about a CCP controlled organ.
I don't recall Google search organizing any marches on the Capitol.
Here's the biscuit recipe. I originally adapted it from a paleo recipe that I can't seem to find again, but I've made enough changes to make it my own. (Because of the aquafaba, and arguably the potato starch, it's not paleo after my changes.)

- 3/4 cup potato starch

- 1/4 cup coconut flour

- 1/4 cup almond flour

- 3/4 tsp baking soda

- 1/4 tsp baking powder

- 1/4 tsp salt

- 1/4 cup olive oil

- 1/4 cup water

- 3 tbsp aquafaba

- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar

Mix dry ingredients in a bowl. Add oil and water, stir. Add aquafaba, stir.

At this point, it should stick together but still be somewhat lumpy. If it does not stick together, add more water, but be careful--don't add enough water that it becomes smooth!

Add vinegar, stir, and spoon individual biscuits onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Should make 7-9 biscuits. Cook at 350 degrees F for 12-15 minutes.

These biscuits are excellent with olive oil and vinegar. They reheat well, and have a crumbly texture that reminds me of Southern-style biscuits.

The flatbread recipe is similar, but with no baking soda or vinegar, and the flours replaced with 1 cup tapioca starch and 1/3 cup coconut flour. Some extra olive oil helps too, and maybe some oregano.
I've been coding c++ for nearly 20 years, still don't know how to write a Makefile. Thanks CMake!
There is some fun drama though, but overall it's indeed minimal.

I too grew up in a beach town. It's selective memory.
There is (was?) a project to do your first structure in the Atacama Desert in Chile:

> Espejo de Tarapacá (EdT) – one of the most innovative infrastructure projects in the world – is comprised of a 300 MW pumped hydro storage plant that operates with seawater, located approximately 100 kilometers south of Iquique. This project is essentially a large electricity storage system which will eliminate, at a low cost, the intermittency of non-conventional renewable energy – such as solar energy.

I don’t think there exists a clean logical explanation for why any sort of ancestral background should grant rights over land anywhere - your confusion makes plenty of sense.

In America this issue is tied to socioeconomic disparities in race. To be born Native American today is to be born with higher likelihoods of poverty, alcoholism, low life expectancy, etc. These disparities are to some degree (how much is a hotly debated topic down political lines) a consequence of white people treating native peoples like shit (vast simplification) for ~500 years.

Prevailing thought on the American political left is that since taking away native land illegally (and other atrocities) created these disparities, giving them their land back is the just and obvious thing to do (this conclusion is much debated). The left feels, generally, that disparities are unnatural, caused by those in power (white settlers and their descendants), and are to be stamped out. The political right, as best I can tell, both doesn’t agree with that assessment and doesn’t care.

To integrate fully would be the ultimate subjugation: to accept the destruction of a culture and way of life they care deeply about that has already been almost totally taken from them by force. The political left believes this shouldn’t be demanded of an already downtrodden people.

Re your Europe question: I believe the thinking goes that natives there are rich, so why should they have more even more land rights? The political poles are flipped, the political left sees no injustice to be fixed by empowering the privileged.

I’m a white American, so my opinion should be discounted appropriately.
If you are saying that by using Tor, origin information can be hidden, I’d say that’s true.

So for everything not using such a method, what I said is true, which is almost everything.

If you said “Apple should use Tor for everything so that eavesdroppers cannot deduce people’s locations via GeoIP” that would be a fair statement.

Sayid “Apple keeps records of your location history”, is speculation which you have never substantiated, despite repeated challenges.

However what I said still holds despite this small exception.

IP address logs certainly can be changed before storage.

All of those people you mention had something where they could physically and practically do something about the problem. My comment addresses the vast majority of instances a human learns about a problem where that isn't the case.

Your sphere of concern and your sphere of influence are two different things at the end of the day. If you've decided some social problem is within your sphere of influence, then by all means, take whatever helpful action you can - just do not pretend that this encompasses all problems, or for that matter that the number of problems is not infinite.

Down that path lay depression and burnout.
This looks fantastic, and is precisely the sort of thing I’ve wished I had for this system. As it is, the data collection is very much “MVP.” I’ll definitely get in touch!
I've already been projecting at the side, so I'm planning on building my body, and I'm applying to HN with my strong hands.
Peak oil will never happen. The Alberta and Venezuela tar sands contain hundreds of years of supply, yet in a decade or so it'll be cheaper to make oil using cheap renewable energy than it will be to pull it out of the tar sands.

Apparently you’ve never heard of trap shooting or a biathlon? These are Olympic sports. While they might not be as popular as hunting, they are definitely not uncommon either. Both sports have clubs and classes here in Seattle. I know a number of “liberal” gun owners that engage in these activities as well.

The app provides all of that offline and open source :)
> Hi HN, I'm curious to see what cool things everyone's building. What side projects are you developing? What are you applying to HN with?

A music composition mobile app designed to be a combination midi reel / chart creator. Think ultimate guitar or iRealPro but you can also dictate how the chords should be voiced and which tones on which beats (so a midi reel with context aware highlighting). Beta in ~3 months, I'd love to connect with any interested testers! Trying to think if I should do paid, free with ads, or free with something like patreon

Tons of features working, just need to refine UI. Multiple voices and instruments, modal interchange, secondary dominant, and tritone substitution functionality. Android only atm because I don't own an iPhone or mac and developing for that platform doesn't sound fun.
Steam has a lot of games that work well on linux. I play dota and have no issues. Hackmud works well too but I didn't get into it much.
You could just call it Assembly
I sort of understand what's being said in this thread and I wouldn't say it's deliberately obtuse. A lot of ideas have been invented over the last decade and it's good that precise terminology exists to describe it. If you want to get into the minutiae of blockchain there's no shortcut.

And isn't it a two-way pegged sidechain?
Very interesting. More screenshots on site would help, as I abandoned the session after entering email address once with expectation I could see some kind of interface but was presented with some other sign up thing instead.

I wonder if salinity and salt accumulation could become a problem in the upper body of water due to evaporation.

But I guess you could get around it by monitoring and clever mixing.
You could do something similar to what the Expanse has done and have 'mag boots' so everyone just kind of walks around in zero g and they'll occasionally put someone walking on the 'ceiling' to sell the zero g.

We are busy.

Stop thinking of outbound marketing, it does not work and I delete tons of these daily, think inbound. How are you giving me good value for free the first and at least the second time? Then maybe I'll be interested in a chat. I need to discover the value on my own, in a natural way and not be sold it. This is pretty much universal to sales.

If you are targeting a larger business the cycles can be a year or more in length before you will see sales from initial discussions. Internal selling from a champion on the inside (the company) to your product is crutial, then there are tons of approval steps, budgets, legal review, pocs, etc...

Good luck
No, I believe this is due to the phase-out of leaded gasoline.

This is an exaggeration. SF as an example says you can be without your mask if you are:

> • Sitting or standing outside alone or with people you live with (such as picnicking outside) and you are more than 6 feet from others; • When eating or drinking alone or with people you live with, and nobody else is within 6 feet; • Exercising outdoors alone or with people who live with you (walking, hiking, bicycling, or running) and no one else is within 6 feet

Realistically though, there is no enforcement anywhere outside. If you want to go walking or running around outside on the sidewalk without a mask, nobody is going to stop you. You might get a funny look. If you crowd someone's personal space without a mask they might be uncomfortable.

Please wear your mask if you plan to spend extended stretches of time near other people.
Why civic competence in AI ethics is needed in 2021
Just because you don't want to believe it doesn't mean it isn't true

it makes sense that this would have evolved. Men go out at night to hunt they hunt better on moonless nights under the cover of relative darkness they might need to travel far and then get home. If you can sense the Earth's magnetic field you'll be a better navigator and more likely to get home with the food from the hunt more likely to help your tribe and propagate your genes

I'm no expert, but my understanding is that the quality of the tool depends a lot on the specific application, and that much domain-specific customization and post-processing can be necessary to do OCR well. So you may get better advice if you share a bit about what you're trying to do with it.
The threshold is more like 3ms in my experience. When tracking vocals with headphones (no acoustic latency) anything higher will start feeling weird. This is also why Thunderbolt is preferred over USB for recording; you can get in and out of the CPU with effects much faster.
I mean if you spent decades running a large product team that develops accounting web apps, would you expect to be able to read and interpret a description of product related to bio-informatics, or neurotechnology?

If you spent decades working on video game graphics, would it surprise you that someone describing algorithms for sophisticated quantitative finance or high frequency trading use terminology you're not familiar with, including an abundance of words literally borrowed from the Greek language?

Information technology is an absolutely massive field that is finding more and more use cases every year, it shouldn't be a surprise that there are areas of it that you're not familiar with and would need to devote a substantial amount of time to become well versed.

As someone who has spent a decent amount of time understanding cryptocurrencies, it's not really all that much different from learning any other field. You can start with some Youtube videos, read a few blog posts, heck you can even spend a couple of weekends writing your first smart contract and deploy it to Ethereum to see how it works. My first side project on Ethereum was writing a decentralized poker game, I wrote a series of smart contracts based on the theory of Mental Poker [1] and deployed it to the test net, and then wrote a web front end for it that waited for a new block to get published, parsed it and displayed it. It was pretty cool, once you deploy your smart contract to the blockchain, it's kind of magical seeing a completely decentralized system of computers bring that code to life. Like once you deploy your code, that's it, it's entirely out of your hands from that point forward and there's this engine that takes it and keeps it chugging literally for as long as there are miners willing to operate the Ethereum network.

Everything is a mystery until you take the time to learn it.

They can't even enforce their own existing rules against things that are absolutely banned or illegal already - look at Facebook's controversies.

Put plainly, I do not believe it is possible for a social network to moderate hard or fast enough at Facebook/Twitter scale to reject section 230 immunity. Even if they took the step of pre-moderating all content before it appears on the site, there is simply too much content coming in for that to be a realistic option (and not lose a ton of users due to the delay putting people off).

To give you an idea of the scale we're talking about, Twitter does about 500,000,000 tweets per day.

>It’s also not clear to me why we’d expect a private company to have to answer to you or me or anybody else about decisions they make.

They answer to society at the end of the day, which can express its desires via the legal system. If society tires of social networks acting as unaccountable gatekeepers to the national conversation, society can act.
Testosterone has well-studied correlations to muscular health and the tuning of status in social behavior. Going further, it also affects behavior in a way which I can only label as agentic: it's correlated with motivation, vigilance, and low levels of anxiety or fear.[0]

I choose these words for two reasons. First, the ratio of muscle to fat is important for most any metabolic disorder (this means both diabetes and obesity, which are comorbid). Muscles are actively important in metabolic health as they burn calories through use. And contrariwise, among their other problems, fat cells store and secrete estrogens, which is problematic for those that wish to identify as cis male. Clearly some level of the growth cascades that testosterone produces is useful for metabolic health, if not testosterone itself. Else we get into an obesity spiral and limit the development of our own bodies.

Second, high testosterone is often associated with anti-social outcomes like violence. While this is (weakly!) true, this isn't the whole truth. For instance, people given testosterone actually produced fairer deals vs non-blinded placebo.[0] So it seems more appropriate to call testosterone a status regulator than an aggression hormone.

Let's say we avoid the view that no testosterone is good – this would be ad absurdum considering its central role in the body's development. Even if you were to disagree as to basal level of testosterone in 1999, there are clear positive outcomes associated with testosterone which we can organize our sense of what is optimal around; it is possible that we have swung too far, and our current levels are not good enough.

To deny the positive aspects of testosterone, is to deny its usefulness to metabolic health, to regulating status, and maintaining the spiritedness to engage with life.

Can we build deep into the Earth? Probably not... but it's funny to think about. The mantle is less than 4000 degrees C. Yet there are known materials with a melting point above that: https://www.asminternational.org/web/cmdnetwork/home/-/journ...

Even regular Tungsten would apparently get you through most of the mantle without melting.

Alright, so what can be done about the extreme pressure that deep?

It seems like bulk nanotubes are perhaps the only theoretical material that could withstand the pressure (100GPa)?
you're not comparing apples and apples - NZ doesn't have state taxes, you at least need to include those.

When I lived in the US (up until 2004) my top marginal rate was 33% plus 9.5% (CA) state tax, in NZ it is 33% - sales taxes are different (higher in NZ).

The govt paid workers through their businesses - but the amount paid was based on the payrolls - that money went to the workers.
I recently got myself a M1 Mac and I want to run Linux on it. By reading the docker M1 tech preview release (https://www.docker.com/blog/download-and-try-the-tech-previe...), I was made aware of the existence of Virtualization.framework on recent macOS releases.

Virtualization.framework provides 99% of the building blocks for running a Linux VM on a Mac, but there’s no off-the-shelf CLI for running a VM.

Inspired by https://github.com/evansm7/vftool, I wrote another CLI (vmcli) with some more features (better termios handling / escape sequence detection) in Swift, and build a script (vmctl) to daemon-ize vmcli and help manage VMs. I also made a script for provisioning a Ubuntu VM, so you can run a Ubuntu VM from scratch in minutes.

Eggs do a lot of things and carbonated water does almost none of them. The CO2 bubbles are ghetto leavening (which I guess would replace yeast) so overall, I think this is totally wrong.
As a Data Scientist, I do everything you mentioned because I came from a SWE background. I think Data Scientists, even if they are only interesting in the "fun" part of the job, should know how and why data are captured their way, so that they understand which models are better suited, which saves a lot of time.

“it can't be done anyway”

Nobody is saying this.

Also I agree with you - e2e secret sharing is possible, although hard for users with just one device - I.e. a lot of people.

And yes, Apple has solved a lot of fucking hard problems, slowly, and incrementally.

Just because they haven’t done it yet doesn’t mean they won’t.

You have no evidence at all that any of this is because “Apple Serves at the pleasure of US military intelligence”.

You keep making claims that are pure speculation as if they are true.

I actually agree with keeping pressure up on Apple to implement E2E backups.

I guess you don’t think that’s ever going to be possible though.
I agree. I am also not cut out to be a philosopher.

Saying that "Linux [is] based on Unix" is not really accurate either.

Makefiles are actually great! Just not as a build system.

If you have a project where you need to do a thing, you can instead make a Makefile to do the thing:

thing:
some shell command

that's it, now you get to type `make thing`.

The power is the generality: it can wrap any command, from jq to curl to whatever. It's perfect for small, weird workflows which don't naturally fit into other build systems.

But don't use it for C++!
