Easy. Create a market that makes it profitable to build storage and encourages price reduction.
Personally I think that supporting 24:00 is the wrong way to go. 23:59:59.9999 or <next day> 00:00:00.0000 should suffice in any situation I can think of. It's just a case of being overly fanciful, wanting 24:00.
> "Oh, we're going to replace that nuclear power plant with wind and solar!"

I hear you, so please don't misinterpret this comment.

Statistically speaking, I'd imagine that it's actually the increases in production via wind and solar that has in fact caused nuclear (as percentage) to fall. Coal, at least in the USA can't be much different than nuclear.

How much nuclear production has come online since 2010 (i.e., the article's reference point)? Now how many solar panels? Given the long lead time of nuclear (i.e., planning, approval, producing) it's hard to imagine it catching solar anytime soon.

Should nuclear press on regardless? Probably. If only because if nuclear can be the last 15% to 20% of steady output (read: not subject to weather and such) that'll be enough to prevent rolling blacksout and other events due to shortages.
The FCC care about emissions criteria in various frequency bands. They are worried about undue interference with other devices caused by incorrect use of spectrum or inadequate and poorly made transmission equipment, not protocol level reverse engineering concerns.

If Flipper can supply a device to an FCC approved testing lab which passes the emission criteria in the emitted bands, I don't see why they couldn't get approvals in those bands. For example, for NFC, Flipper is no different from a normal Android phone with respect to compliance.

They'll have to get the 433Mhz "Tamagochi" feature compliance approved, and that gets them the CC1101 chip signed off to live in the device. Notice how the homepage cleverly does not mention any transmitting features besides NFC/LF RFID and the Tamagochi one...

Probably they will have to include a "locked" firmware with any arbitrary SDR transmission features above and beyond approved frequencies/bands disabled, and the user will be responsible for compliance past that point.
It's a kickstarter, so it's going to run behind. I consider it gambling for fun toys, sometimes they work out and sometimes they don't. They've sent out a stream of updates over the past year so i'm really not worried about them defaulting. They've taken a step back and redesigned the hardware since they reached enough funding stretch-goals to include several kitchen sinks now:

Over a decade ago I backed the Bus Pirate early on and even though I got a unit shipped, it never worked. Defective code shipped on my batch and it wasn't until a few years ago that I figured out that's what was wrong. Even if I had figured that out early on I don't have access to an expensive Pic programmer then so I couldn't do anything to fix it then. The Flipper is Arduino compatible so updating the code shouldn't require a programmer unless something blows up the chips bootloader.

They are hiring, if you speak Russian that is:

I have used three wyze cams but only for pointing outside or to monitor plant growth. Here is an HD timelapse of a Monstera Deliciosa I made with one: https://youtube.com/watch?v=0NH2t1fJL9w&feature=emb_title

The first thing I do with a wyze cam is physically remove the microphone, because it can only otherwise be turned off in software which is configured in the cloud.

I'd consider using them with the OS firmware change, but hadn't thought of also running them on an independent network.
Yeah, you're right. I've seen that comment exchange too many times, with the smug undertone of "haha, you're the dumbass for having a FB account".
I have one and it hasn't really helped me.
Building Reliable Secrets Detection
Thank you for disagreeing in a reasonable manner.

Where I feel Apple fall short is in trying to take away “excess information”, where honestly they often succeed, they end up with some very confusing interfaces. And while this might make it faster to learn, it doesn’t necessarily mean people are learning the “right” things, i.e. what is actually going on. Although pretty much anyone using the term “cloud” is doing the same thing.

I still stand by the headline though, for my opinion. I just think they’re better at some things and worse at others. I find most current OS about as bad as each other in terms of UX.
Thanks! This is a good idea. I believe this is in the open issues on the github repo. I've been busy with work but would love for someone to take this on: https://github.com/pgriggs/timetoherd.com

If you think $20 is high, wait until you find out that it's actually $170. The $10 for preordering is just to reserve a unit. The preorder does include a $40 coupon though, so the total price for preorders is $140 ($170 device + $10 preorder - $40 coupon) + shipping and taxes.
There were no "known" security issues with Verkada.
Go live in an airplane crash for a couple of months and then let's talk again about whether we should continue to operate them? Or is the exhaust of a coal plant -- oh wait, that's worldwide, you're already more likely to get all sorts of stuff from air pollution -- a better comparison? This line of reasoning makes no sense to me.
Very cool - reminds me a bit of Borges' "Library of Babel". I love the oceanic sense of vastness it gave me while reading it.
Yeah I didn't know that ISO had recurring events in the spec. I guess most library authors don't either, and as GP said, they think the RFC covers it.
Hmmmm, interesting thought. We wanted to showcase how easy we made it for others to buy your products and click your links, but I can see how this could come across that way in the messaging.

Maybe I'll rotate the button colors & label to show different services (more of an example) or replace it with blob/placeholder text entirely? Thanks for the heads up!
That's a ridiculous statement. The vast majority of US cops would refuse to kill unarmed protestors.

If you think otherwise, you get your news and worldview from a very distorted bubble.
It would be interesting to have something like FB Purity [0] run in a headless browser that will RSS you meaningful posts based on rules you provide. I'd totally use something like that.

[0] https://www.fbpurity.com/
Yep. This is part of the reason I think a world where ISO is more or less self-sustaining, rather than subsidized by/part of some other entity that would be really tempted to influence it, is probably a better world.

In any case, ISO WGs tend to publish final drafts openly. Purchasing the actual standard document is not something required if you are just experimenting or playing around (and if you’re not, you probably can spare some change to support the organization).
I'm curious, what was your best investment as an accredited investor? (No need for a specific company, general info is fine.)
Oh dear. “$87/hour, which is $62.6K/month” for only 250k concurrent connections?

Around €1500 will get you a second hand Dell R720 with 190+ GB RAM and 48 cores.

It would be cheaper to handle such scaling with a vm instead of functions. Any kernel with a bit of tweaking will easily handle that number of connections. One just needs RAM and sufficient CPU. 16GB RAM and 8 vCPUs on aws will be enough for 500k.

Sleeping would be very uncomfortable if my service using such approach started being popular and was running at increasing capacity for a week because my team needs time to move back to vms.
They said take a test. "Have a million dollars" is a grossly unfair replacement for that.
There is zero evidence that the British "were creating Israel". This is just a false propaganda point you are repeatedly trying to make, with no evidence and against available evidence.

The wikipedia pages I linked above are full of literally hundreds of examples of British forces acting against the Jewish residents trying to form their new state and defend themselves against Arab attacks. In many of these cases, British forces engaged the Jewish armed groups in direct combat, just like in Operation Hametz.

You and others are not debating honestly here. Your only goal is to spread counterfactual, false propaganda by any means at your disposal.
>barring some philosophical code which cares about "zero-ness"

But that is the intrinsic meaning OP was talking about. Plenty of mathmatics deals with 0 or 1 as important constants. If you have a function that mods by a parameter, you need error handling for zero. Calling it value_that_causes_undefined_behaviour isn't going to improve code clarity. Beyond that;

for (i = 0; i < IMPORTANT_QUANTITY; i++)

, or some variation thereof, is very idiomatic C.
Isn't that a bit dramatic? If US police officers were ordered to shoot to kill, I highly doubt there would be no defectors.
This is the most ignorant comment I've read on hacker news yet. The intenet has such a biased and incorrect view of Israel its amazing how many people parrot it back without any knowledge.
What is the best open-source cross-platform alternative available?
There are lots of police in America and I expect plenty would have the integrity to refuse such an order. It seems unlikely that we would learn this as I think the counterfactual where they receive such an order is unlikely.
Tesla Confirms to CA DMV That the Full Self-Driving Beta Will Never Be FSD
I don't really care if you assume the reviews are biased. I assume that all review websites have some number of fake reviews, and it's unlikely that exactly half of the fake reviews are negative and the other half positive. Therefore all review websites would have some bias vs the ground truth sentiment. My only objection is to baseless accusations of malfeasance.
Top management consulting firms (McKinsey, BCG, ec) are insanely competitive and won't consider anyone without elite credentials, i.e. top grads from elite undergraduate programs, MBAs from top schools, Ph.Ds from good research programs, etc. These opportunities are far more scarce and require more effort overall as well. I suspect that some of these firms could hire more or less randomly from those who make it to the interview stage and do nearly as well, since their resume filtering is extremely rigorous, while their skill requirements for most roles aren't that high outside of being smart, analytical and willing to travel and work insane hours. Big Tech is substantially more egalitarian in terms of who they let through to the interview stage, while the actual job demands somewhat esoteric skills that go beyond just being a smart, analytical hard-working person, which necessitates a more meaningful filter.

I suppose Big Tech could do something similar (skip leetcode stuff for people who have credentials such as prior experience at top tech firms and/or tangible research experience at top research institutions) but I suspect that would not go over well with most people that have issues with the current hiring processes.
Does this have any relationship with https://www.etesync.com/ and https://www.etebase.com/ ?
Thanks! This is a good point - the current calculation is a quick and dirty approach to clearly answer the question "at today's rate, how long would it take us to get X-percentage of the population fully vaccinated?". But it may be better to count one dose differently. Or show the current % of population with one dose if that data is available (which it is for some countries)
This is a trend I've been noticing, which doesn't seem very surprising when written out. Parents who try to approve every purchase end up in a never ending onslaught of requests compared to parents who simply give their kids money and let them spend it however.
I wouldn't be surprised if peak and pique have similar etymology.
The largest manufacturer of semiconductor manufacturer equipment is Dutch, so it doesn’t seem that outlandish.

More generally, the current market is unhealthy. There are only two companies fabbing high end chips (not counting Intel, who generally only fab their own stuff), and even then only if you’re generous to Samsung. In the long run, that’s not good for anyone, and it’s an obvious analogy to Airbus.
you have just the right name :)

> Have you seen how much radiation from Fukushima has sailed out to sea?

Actually, Wikipedia tells me they've resumed fishing the sea next to Fukushima as of three years ago

> In February 2018, Japan renewed the export of fish caught off Fukushima's nearshore zone. According to prefecture officials, no seafood had been found with radiation levels exceeding Japan safety standards since April 2015.

And looking at a graph, it looks even less bad:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fukushima_Daiichi_nuclear_disa...

Seawater contamination seems to be back to safe levels two months later.

I'm no expert on seawater contamination or anything, perhaps it's the case that the two big nuclear disasters known to mankind had a combined effect on sea life greater than the fossil fuel plants and dams for hydro. But then please do make that argument rather than a vague exclamation about "have you seen how much".

"Hours in seat" provide diminishing returns, just like "lines of code produced" do.

It has been a measured fact that productivity per hour curves in the negative direction after about 7 hours per day (in sum, not necessarily contiguous).
Most every company I know would love to exploit any high-conversion, high-quality pocket of candidates.

If companies are passing on specific pockets, it’s likely from a belief that the conversion from top of funnel to successful hire is low.
Seems obviously problematic. Hopefully Apple will make a SN# lookup DB available? I wonder what the big benefit is of changing the ID scheme in this instance.

I'm imagining a future where you take your laptop to the manufacturer and they insist the hardware doesn't match with the random number!

Makes me chuckle.
From the link you just posted:

> Impact:

> According to Gerald M. Steinberg, the "agreement did not prevent the Arab states from obtaining weapons through their alliance relationships with suppliers, but Israel was excluded.... Little foreign aid was provided by the United States, and Israeli military officials who sought to purchase weapons and ammunition in the United States were rebuffed."

Thus this agreement, that was aimed at stopping the Israeli-Arab arms race (which by itself is a neutral and not a pro-Israeli agenda), led in fact to Israel being blocked from purchasing weapons, while Arabs were still able to purchase them.

This is in fact yet another example of the major powers active in the area - United States, United Kingdom, and France - acting against Israel and its interests.

So I have to conclude you don't bother reading your own links, in hopes other won't as well.
Here goes the obligatory

Ah, I read it again and there are a couple of places where ISO 8601 says to use + if the offset is 0

Thanks for the correction!
I'll repeat (for the third time) my earlier advice. Don't feed trolls, just flag my comments and move on.

As for the rest you posted, I've only made the claim that you were very smart, that's it. If you want to project all this stuff about sexism and people quality, I don't know anything about that.

Thanks for the enjoyable conversation though, gave me a good chuckle. Cheers!
this is true. It is overly simplistic by design and meant to only answer the question "at today's daily average vaccination rate, how long until x-percentage of the population is vaccinated?".

Interpolation is what I have seen used at industrial Plant I work at to trend high frequency data onto a HMI for example.

There’s a lot who would carry it out too. Examples being the distinction between police response to peaceful protests last summer for the humane treatment of fellow humans, the other being more recently at the failed attempt of a coup on American soil.

Edit: while I’m sure cops, individually, have a conscience. In my experience that goes out the window as soon as you have a group of 3+ cops.

You're missing the point completely and you have to take some time to think about it and let it roll around in your brain to start making sense of it. It took me a long time but now I fully believe. Including cryptopunks.

In real life, people wear rolexes. Why? You and I both know that a casio can tell time just as well as a Rolex. I don't know the difference between one model of Rolex from another, but some may cost 10k and some may cost 20k.

To those deep in the Rolex world, the difference is huge. They can tell right away.

Why do people wear rolexes? A casio is lighter and easier to tell time. But a Rolex. That's status. You're not SAYING you're rich, but you signal you're rich. Big difference. The former, people will scoff at. The latter, people may be impressed. And if you're in the Rolex world and you own the top of the line Rolex? Those in the know are even more impressed.

How does this translate online? How can you signal status online? In centralized systems like twitter, you just look at followers. But what if... you just now made a twitter account to talk about something you love, and you have no followers? How can you signal status to people you talk to that you deserve some clout?

Enter something like cryptopunks. People in the cryptospace use cryptopunks as their twitter pic. Those in the know realize that one cryptopunk does not equal another cryptopunk. Maybe yours has red hair and only 2 percent of cryptopunks have red hair. Maybe you know all red hair cryptopunks command a huge premium and cost tens of thousands of dollars.

They can verify in your wallet that you own that crypto punk.

You can move from one platform to another, with no followers, and suddenly, you have digital clout.

Mull it over for awhile.

Depends on the skin color and/or political leanings of the crowd they're asked to shoot.
After numerous attempts at these software engineer interviews, I added the following disclaimer to my LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/mtodor/ and cover letters:

"I have a personal policy against any type of live coding or online coding tests during interviews and I don't enjoy or engage in any form of competitive programming. Otherwise, I am happy to work offline on coding assignments with reasonable goals and deadlines and to have in-depth technical discussions about software architecture and design as well as relevant technologies."

I'm still perfectly able to find suitable jobs with good pay as a software engineer and being upfront about the above policy prevents a lot of frustration and wasted time on my side. Yes, I do have to invest a lot more effort into looking for a suitable job, but, then again, I'd very much rather spend my free time doing that than going again through one of these interviews.

PS: I have 14 years of work experience, currently working as a senior engineer / tech lead on cloud infrastructure and this is my 8th job.

Yes it does because within the token, you can program that the token creator gets a share of the profit.

Often it's more that it is hard to avoid having that account. And management don't see the point in making it so that they need to get two underlings working together to jump through hoops to trace through the whole stack and work out why the camera monitoring the Very Important Customer's executive liquor cabinet was offline when persons unknown emptied it.

For small companies often "devops" is one person, sometimes even one person who also does other stuff. I like to think I've made it difficult for that specific person to get complete control of any specific device that we've sold, but I'm also aware that it takes one bug in one of those devices to undo anything I can do on the server side. All they need to do is get the public IP from my system (which is needed right down to customer service level), knowledge of a bug and bingo... they have control. Especially if the bug is "customer chose an obvious password" .
