I know that because that is what Elon Musk and other SpaceX engineers and have said. They have explained this in multiple presentations and interviews over the last 5 years. This is not a mystery. I am not speculating.

There is a whole community that has been following this project since day 1. There are people filming the production site every day. The analyze every part they see and try to figure out what changed. Some people in the community can get questions to Elon Musk and others.

The reason you are getting down-voted is that you seem to have not studied it at all what SpaceX is actually doing, and simply jump into the comments and make strong statements that what SpaceX is doing is wrong.

And your justification for this opinion is totally unconvincing for anybody that has actually studied the problem.

> I don't care who you believe they are beating in the market place and how magnificent you believe this rocket is.

Its really not about believe. Its a simple fact that everybody has acknowledged.

You and your work are not an island. My productivity is not just my own, I am aided by mentors, supported by smart teammates, etc. I find your hyper individualist mindset very depressing and isolating. I think it would be foolish to claim that any success or talent of mine or my team is solely my own. I believe in social obligations, not just in the context of work, but in general. My goal is not to maximize my personal salary, but to live in a world that is more humane and more just and treats everyone, including myself, with dignity and respect.

> Do you share a bank account with them? Why not?

No, because I don’t have a pension, but many people do and I am fully in support of the concept.
Terrible title to this thread. It's a court order to specifically remove tweets that falsely compare protests to genocide.

The HN thread title "Indian government orders Twitter to remove contents related to farmers protest" suggests it is an Indian government order to remove all content regarding the protests.

Dishonest.

It's a given that no one feels sorry for Wall Street. But when I read these sob stories about retail "investors" losing everything, I get the impression I'm supposed to feel bad for them...
Not really.

With numbers come also internal struggles, that weaken the whole system.

Used to have panic attacks and constant anxiety (without knowing what they are and what was wrong with me) every day for about 2 years triggered by a bad cannabis experience . Turned out I was predespositioned and it runs in my dads family. It started to mix with depression. 7 Years later I still sometimes get panic attacks and anxiety and dystonic thoughts, especially when my perceived stress is high (I work as a freelance SE).
I have identified following long term factors that help bringing frequency and severity down significantly (talking about going from daily to maybe once every few months):
- Exercise 4 times a week (preferably running)
- Eat healthy (I cut sugar and eat according to an app 90% of the time)
- Being outside every day and exposing myself to sunlight
- Balancing alone time with social time according to my needs
- Walk away from things that stress me out for no real benefit (that also means walking away from people)
- Do not overpromise

Factors that help me coping when it hits anyway:
- Breath slowly, deeply and on exhale remind myself that its only temporary
- Put my feet on a cold floor
- Smile and nod
- Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (google it)
- Walk outside
> Sustained effort compounded over time is unreasonably powerful.

Thank you, this hits close to home and is great advice, I appreciate it.

There are many downsides to the panopticon - I'm asking specifically about an upside. And, since we don't see this upside, I wonder how much of a working panopticon we really have. The urge to locate missing kids (or missing people in general) is politically very strong, so it would make sense that it would be done if it could be done.

Then again, it could be that national security requires that the technology be deployed sparingly, lest the counter-party learn to avoid it. But this seems less likely to me.

The semantic difference is not small. "Would", using the subjunctive, implies that the "want" is theoretical, that the person asking is in some sense trying to come up with a hypothetical situation that can be written off as being unrealistic or a silly edge case. Using it diminishes the experience of the questioner and is intrinsically disrespectful. The fact that people have got used to hearing it so much that they use it without questioning how rude and unwelcoming it is says more about that community than about the grammar.

"Do", in the present tense, does not carry those connotations. It implies "I have acknowledged that your want is present and real, but I need more information about your context to be able to help."

I assume that this is some sort of commentary reflecting that you don’t think that global warming is an issue. If not, my apologies. If so, rising oceans create the following real problems that we are seeing now around the world:

- contaminate fresh water aquifers (see Florida now).

- flood wetlands (again, see Florida now).

- contaminate agricultural soil with salt water (see Maryland now; https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-water-farming-feature...).

- increase erosion, especially during storm surges (see NC now; https://climate.nasa.gov/blog/2974/cant-see-sea-level-rise-y...).

- flood low-lying areas during storms (see New Orleans, parts of the Netherlands, and Maldives now).

- due to the above, lost habits for various flora and fauna.

I am certain that seeing former beach resorts permanently underwater would probably be one of the most tangible ways to get people to believe in global warming, but Mother Nature is a bit more subtle than that while still being incredibly destructive.
Not in a formal, deductive way but it’s not obviously wrong to initially give an authority a bit of credence.

In this particular case, you brought up Bhattacharya‘s credentials. If another plausible expert disagrees with him, we’re at worst back to where we started; the fact that there’s a consensus he’s wrong, rather than just two dueling authorities, pushes back even harder.

Unfortunately, while dictatorships are highly successful in the short run, democracies are required in the long run.

My partner comes from a country with a dictatorship so I see first hand how bad it is to live in an environment where the de facto ruler has full say on everything. You can and will be killed as per their request.

Democracies are bad and the US, India, Europe are all struggling with them, but there are essential for basic rights. Without politicising this thread, one can look at some of the other countries and see how bad life would be in a dictatorship.

Currently dictatorship's are not THAT bad, but that's because they are still competing with democracies. Imagine the whole world under one ruler - they would likely kill large parts of the population. Just as one good ruler can do many good things fast, one bad ruler can do many bad things fast.

- Grapheme: simply any symbol or character used in a script

- Morpheme: the fundamental unit of meaning in a language, any part of speech whose meaning cannot be further subdivided “sleepwalkers” is thus composed of four morphemes: ”sleep”, “walk”, “er”, and “s”.

- Allomorph: a different pronunciation of a same morpheme, typically dictated by grammatical or phonological reasons. The English words “a” and “an” are allomorphs.

- Mora: a unit of timing that is relevant to the phonology of some languages. English is intuitively divided into syllables by it's speakers, which is a structural unit built around a syllabic nucleus, in English' case a vowel; Japanese is intuitively divided into moræ by it's speakers, which is a unit of time. English speakers typically find it hard to count moræ; Japanese speakers find it hard to count syllables. In Chinese, moræ and syllables are one and the same, with each syllable being pronounced in the same length; in English syllables have variable length with stressed syllables being longer, and mor constantly spaced apart compared to unstressed syllables and the vowel of the syllable also influences the length with some vowels being longer than others.

- Phoneme: the fundamental unit of sound in a language. The English word “English” is composed of the phonemes: /I ng g l I S/ with each phoneme separated by spaces. Different languages differ in what they consider different phonemes. Most famously, Japanese considers what English considers as two different phonemes in /r/ and /l/ as one and the same phoneme, thus Japanese speakers find it difficult to hear the difference between the English words “root” /r u t/ and “loot” /l u t/.

I think that covers it all.
This is nothing compared to the Emergency in the 80s. It's not good, but it isn't the worst India has seen.
But when is the country the same as made the treaty? Given time all countries change government structures and landmass quite heavily.

Or in another case if a country is ruled by a genocidal dictatorship and there is a rebellion, should the new government be bound by the treaties made by the dictator? What if that dictator had been installed by a foriegn government?

My personal opinions on the protests aside, this is clearly a different title from the original article.

And it's deliberately titled to make it sound worse than it is (at the moment at least).

I'm not sure how one requests a title change on HN, but that would help here.
I think my phrasing was poor. I meant specifically about labor issues, not the general impact on society/the world. Everyone in the country jokes about how Amazon employees have to run, skip bathroom breaks, etc. to meet warehouse quotas. Whether this is entirely true anymore, I don't know, but that's the reputation.
In my opinion, state machines are the best solution when you have "any arbitrarily complex combination of states and transitions, regardless of the problem domain, language" to quote you. However most UI state patterns are not arbitrarily complex. Mostly we're pulling a little data and there is a loading and error state. Using a state machine to manage that is perhaps a little much compared to other solutions and provokes these responses of overengineering.

So it becomes the classic idea of the right tool for the job and knowing when to reach for the more powerful tool. I think that's the value of articles like this.
Embedded Covid mask detection on an Arm Cortex-M7 processor using PyTorch
There's no more a "break to mobile at 980px" than a "break to mobile at 1140px", it's just the one you have a problem with. A responsive site scaling at multiple breakpoints isn't like switching to a mobile site just because it changes its "More" menu to a hamburger. The problem seems to be your choice of hardware coupled with your split-screen window size plus your want of three rows over two at a specific site; remove one and the problem goes away. To me The Guardian is scaling perfectly well and trying to paint it as switching to mobile is disingenuous. I'm amazed reading stuff like this at HN (well maybe not as most "hackers" can't design if their life counted on it). The Guardian is a good example of a perfectly well working responsive website.

> The only two relevant pieces of Fedi software are Pleroma and Mastodon. ActivityPub is such a horrible protocol, and Mastodon has butchered it so much, it’s impossible to make an interoperable implementation without man-months of work. To reimplement Mastodon from the ground up would be a nightmare.

Interoperability through simple protocols is such an underrated property of a social network. Despite being a proprietary service, AIM's TOC protocol could be implemented from scratch in just a few hundred lines of code -- remember how many third party AIM clients there were? Even implementing the ActivityStreams system that ActivityPub is built on top of takes more code than that. From what I've seen, IPFS has the same problem -- an exciting decentralized model locked behind a nightmarishly overengineered protocol. Who is working on simpler alternatives to these systems?

"Usenet is dying: news at eleven" -pretty much since 1985
I’ve got to be honest, that does sound rather childish on your part.
As for whether 1 dose prevents spreading: for many countries, in particular UK, the current bottleneck is hospital occupancy, and that is overwhelmingly people over 70 - something like 60% IIRC.

If 1 dose, followed by a 2nd some time, can cut that number down a lot (some people won't get Covid, and few will get a bad one), hospitals can be freed and start returning to their usual work - cancer treatments etc. That's a big win. I think it's still the case that more people die of cancer than of Covid.

But that said, I also worry whether the vaccines will work with the longer spacing - I hope results like this show us they would.
What blew up is the second stage, the stage that would contain the astronauts. If this landing profile is also the profile they will use for a manned starship is unknown.

It feels to me like there is no backup plan for engine failures, but they can take so many paths here that I don't think anyone knows except people within SpaceX.
Example paths:

* Don't launch it with people until it has landed unmanned so frequently that everyone trusts it.
* Land cargo versions like this to get max payload, while manned versions light a lot sooner, with possibly more engines, and sacrifice some fuel for increased reliability.
* Catch starship just like the booster in case of failure, with a longer travel to support higher speeds and lower G's.
* Add a parachute or increase the flap sizes to lower terminal speed so much that it is survivable to land without engines.

The test articles for the first stage are still being built and are expected to land similar to the falcon 9, which the big difference that Elon is talking about them being catched by a tower instead of landing on their own legs. This seems far enough away though that I would not be surprised if that changes radically.
Options should be used as intended: as a hedge.

E.g. If I am net long in my portfolio and I fear some headwinds I can buy a put or two for the peace of mind. Now those puts should be always considered as worthless, and it is just the price to pay for the peace of mind.

Similarly you sell options. Trading options on the other hand is just pure gambling. Even if you get the direction right you likely won't get the timing right (or the volatility).

edit: typo
The actual conclusion is still however rather worrying:

"Taken together this suggests that the projected global sea level rise by the end of this century in various IPCC reports is at best conservative and consequently underestimates the upper bound of what is referred to as the likely sea level rise by the end of this century."
Don't want to be mean but this is honestly a very simple article. This can be easily summarized as :

- A product manager's job is to decide how to build the product

- a PMM is to market it

- a PO is just a role inside a scrum team

I don't really agree with that, things are much more complex in reality, the PM and the PMM jobs is very different depending on the company you are working at.

If you want good content on the topic, there are these two blogs :

The benefits of agricultural deregulation is not entirely clear cut.

I quite closely followed the deregulation of the Australian dairy industry (had worked in the industry and still with friends who do) and the outcome 20 years later has not been entirely beneficial for farmers and one might even say only beneficial for the supermarkets. Maybe there's a direct consumer benefit initially through lower prices, but then if the volume of milk production drops, the prices will then likely increase due to lack of supply.

Some articles:

What Has Happened to Australian Milk Since Deregulation?: https://www.themilkhouse.org/a-look-back-at-australian-dereg...

The summary of this one is that Australian milk production and exports have stagnated rather than grown.

A Look Back at Australian Deregulation: https://www.themilkhouse.org/a-look-back-at-australian-dereg...

This one claims a 60% reduction of dairy farmers in some regions.

20 years after dairy deregulation, Australia faces lowest level of milk production in decades: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYanQoLKXOA

There is much more, though.
