Climate science ended mixing up entirely with left wing ideology: de-growth movements, anti-nuclearists, anti-capitalist, etc. First they appropriate whatever they need from scientific discourse to support their agenda, then they denounce everyone who is against their agenda as "anti-science".

I recently picked up my retro computing hobby again after selling off my collection in 2015 - when it was still all WaMcOm and the original browsers. I was happy to find TenFourFox, Leopard Webkit are able to at least support the loading of modern webpages. But it becomes very clear how much the web has changed and evolved, and even machines that I used to consider be super-fast now crawl and grind when confronted with a modern webpage.

I hope pages like Oldweb and the recently posted 68Knews will keep the old machines somewhat fun to use - other than retro gaming and general exploration.
@ what fees? and why?

Perhaps Paypal should focus on hiring more customer service agents instead of going a full year without a direct line in the US? Paypal is one of the most egregious fintech companies in existence.

Could you elaborate on this? It seems to be clear that while children themselves are relatively unscathed, they spread the virus among themselves and to their family members quite effectively.

I call it "Science with a capital S." It seeks to find and destroy an outgroup, always, like a bad cult. It portrays non-believers as harmful. There's no exceptions. Outsiders are always portrayed as dangerous with many lives at stake.

It's never about the science but about rooting out the people who disagree. It's purely a political movement and has almost nothing to do with science.

As a religion, it's the worst religion ever. Science is a tool for attaining the truth, not a top-down ideology for defining it. People who adopt the ideology ultimately lose science as a tool.
You misspoke then?

It would be useful to clarify as you've essentially just accused him of racism and its not clear that you acknowledge that accusation was incorrect or at least unevidenced here.

Absolutely. This is a dark day for 'open source' images.

No it is still new. Just not the latest line of production gear (Which would be the R750). Im not going to post direct links because i assume that's a no-no.

Ruckus refreshes their gear fairly frequently and the overstock can be had at a steep discount. Those not needing to do huge, high density deployments in things like auditoriums, stadiums, classrooms and the like but are just looking for something for their home can get a really solid piece of gear (imho better than ubnt) at a steep discount.

Its not really the same as even grey market Cisco stuff.

Like i said, i stuck with ubnt because of some specific things, including the fact that I could re-use mounting holes/measurements and could upgrade in an hour vs rebuilding entirely.

Do they consider it science? I haven't seen racial justice movements incorporating that. And if they do, that's evidence of an orientation toward science that the right actively opposes—i.e. an effort to dress up views with a scientific gloss.

You're talking about misusing science, or relying on junk science. Those are problems, of course, but they're not the opposition to the scientific project as a whole that this article focuses on.
There came a point when I stopped questioning.

No, it's really not. It's only mainstream in the GOP if you get your news from the left - if you associate with and listen to people on both sides of the aisle, you realize that it's a fringe element on both sides.

This is a case where "nut jobs on Facebook" are being endorsed by prominent political figures from one party, and not the other. Every party has its nut jobs, but there's a real asymmetry here, where explicit anti-science attitudes are a political platform of just one side.

Fighting "nut jobs on Facebook" is a good thing to do, though it's really hard. "Hard" becomes "impossible" when prominent political figures endorse it.

Nobody is paying 22$ for a 1$ product, I'm not sure how you can even remotely come to that while ignoring all the layer 2 developments.

There's a ton of really useful projects happening on DeFi, you can see the blockchain data for yourself and see that a lot of people are using it, maybe you don't see the use case, but that doesn't mean there isn't any.

The stateside TSMC fab, even with trained technicians, cannot be instantly/effortlessly/losslessly decoupled from the Taiwan fab. That would be a monumental undertaking. Manufacturing is much more complex than that, the site is far more than some technicians, a building, and some machines inside it.

Instead, this move ties the success of the American facility and the Taiwanese facility together, building a bond and interdependence.

The vaccines were accelerated by spending money and the high prevalence of the infection, they weren't rushed.

The blood clotting with the AZ vaccine is an issue, but that risk is still a good trade-off for a big segment of the population.
A few people that I work with order THC gummies from some sketchy source, delivered via mail, that they pay for with crypto. Pornhub still exists, despite having their credit card processing de-platformed, so I guess somebody is paying them some crypto.

But no. I've never met anyone in real life who uses crypto for mundane transactions, where fiat currency is an option.

We knew all of this back in September because Europe had taken the lead on keeping schools open in many places. Only now in the United States is it politically palatable to talk about.

This is indeed Delaunay triangulation, barycentric coordinates, linear RGB and projections on the edges for the points outside of the mesh. You got everything right!

Having a nice blending along the edges doesn't seem straightforward. I have a few options in mind but nothing obviously right (working with a voronoi diagram instead of a delaunay one, bezier interpolation)
I love reading about crypto on HN because everyone here knew about it early enough to be a multimillionaire but thought they were too smart for it. The salt in these threads is amazing
A thought.

Imagine working and spending your entire scientific career on a specific problem, hoping to create positive change and then to be meet with this type of skepticism.
I can't help but feel sad for everyone involved in this scientific research if they end up seeing this.

I do value skepticism but it feels somewhat unfair here because they are very transparent with how they relate to current existing lithium-ion technology while discussing their differences and how they could potentially innovate and iterate on their solution. All of of this while referring to their peer-reviewed paper.

What more could they have done? Shouldn't we celebrate events like this?

1gbitps is around 128MByteps. Most providers use bits instead of bytes. So it's not really a Gigabyte/second. Also most providers give you the maximal limit of the connection, not the average one. You'll probably get around 100MB/second. If a household has 5 persons, that's around 20MB/second which makes using the connection simultaneously possible without affecting anyone's speed.

Jump-starting a manufacturing hub might be all it takes to be self-sufficient throughout the whole process.
Probably the latter, given the article. It just auto-exchanges to fiat (knowing PayPal, for a big fee) so you can pay at PayPal-accepting vendors.
> You're talking about misusing science, or relying on junk science.

I don't think critical race theory and similar stuff is science. They're not misusing it, they're pretending somebody's ramblings are scientific, funding it at universities and then presenting it as "the science is in".

> they're not the opposition to the scientific project as a whole that this article focuses on

If you only pick those parts that you like and invent the rest, that's very much in opposition to the idea of the scientific method.

> PayPal hopes its service can change that, as by settling the transaction in fiat currency, merchants will not take on the volatility risk/upside.

The whole point is that PayPal shields the business from the volatility risk. Buyer buys in Bitcoin, seller receives local fiat currency.
A big day for the VCs. For everyone else using unsplash, get ready for a giant price hike.
I was a contributor [0] to their second batch of photos (the first with user-generated content) when they initially launched under the name Ooomf because I love the philosophy of open-source. They even published an open-source photography book [1], which I was featured in [2]. It is very cool to stumble across my images across the web.

The initial model was to receive a handful of user-generated photos, then handpick 10 each week and feature them [3]. I don't even see this feature page anymore.

However, we all know that once you sell, you lose control of the product. While on day one the service will still exist, I doubt it will be around with its current philosophy for much longer, especially since Getty has already stolen all my images from 500px that do not have people (so they can sell them without releases).

>A few people that I work with order THC gummies from some sketchy source

I have heard from a friend that typically those 'sketchy sources' are just buying gummies from stores in legal states (cough California) and shipping them out.

How do you copy paste something so wrong that it adds a random digit to each number?
Or: gain market share by building a better product, or offering better service, or something else actually useful to the end user. Simply out-advertising your rivals using borrowed money while offering exactly the same product works to nobodys benefit.

Unsplash has a great product, however for Getty this seems to be a good deal more because they eliminate a competitor than because they acquire a good product/team.

I read that Unsplash's plan to monetize was to sell banner ads and branded image placement, but that's gotta make less money than Getty slapping their normal business model onto Unsplash, right?
(Almost every website that features free images already also shows ads from websites like Getty Images and iStockphoto.)

I can also see it happen that Unsplash remains free forever, but that it will be used to lead more people to Getty Images. And that's very understandable from a Getty Images point of view, right?

No, they didn't. They launched a service where you can buy certain cryptocurrencies from PayPal and then sell it back to them at a later time, which may happen to be at the same time as you are paying a merchant fiat money. You can't even transfer your cryptocurrency to or from PayPal.

Once you have the candidate, it shouldn't take that long, maybe a week or two, it really depends on how many steps your hiring process. At the company I work at, we have a technical interview and a soft skills interview, and we try to have them all in one day (because with the hight demand of developers, we might miss them if we take to long).

Anyway, what takes more time is actually getting the interview, and this depends on the value your company adds to collaborators. For example, if you're a company with great reputation, salaries, good benefits, interesting projects, you will get good candidates in line. But if your company isn't really "outstanding", finding someone that's truly good will take a lot of effort. Bear in mind software developers have many job offers, in a weekly basis.

This is why it's so important to build an employers brand!!

Chip fabs ultra-purify water for rinsing wafers. They can reduce water use by doing more dry processes instead of rinsing with water. They can also recycle rinse water, which can have fewer contaminants than the municipal water feed. The water has to be almost perfectly pure.

More than a reaction. Any agendaist who opposes science also makes it easier for other agendaists to oppose science. Their methodologies are essentially open source!
