I think the article is implying that they moved away from a "pure" JIT model, to somewhat of a hybrid model. Their in-depth knowledge of their suppliers is orthogonal to their stockpiling, but it still helps them plan better.

my strategy around buying films now is to only buy blu-ray + digital copy. iTunes is hands down one of the better places to watch digital films (free 4K upgrade, when available), but the behind the scenes of how they handle "ownership" is dubious at best. If programming has taught me anything, it's to always have a backup (in this case a blu-ray copy).
Suppose this continues.

We can predict that private school tuition will go up. A market for additional tutoring might also appear, as in South Korea.

It's less clear how this will affect the real estate premium for "good public school districts". If certain districts consistently avoid these policies, then perhaps the premium will increase. Or if public schools in general become less competitive and they become irrelevant (with people turning to private schools instead), then the premium will decrease. I can see it going either way.

How about not having ad hominem attacks on HN? Your dislike to seeing certain information on HN doesn't add any value to the conversation. Especially when it presumes - without evidence - that the parent comment surely has some partisan mental bias just like you yourself have.

And to your actual answer. I do believe public funds can go to fund government enterprises. Just not when any comparative private enterprise seems to figure out how to be profitable.

I'll try to keep my reply short.

I read a lot of the conversation here every day and I've read a lot of the statements from the current leadership of YCombinator. And I think it's a gross attempt to undermine the discussion by asserting that I must not read anything because I could only be so wrong if that were true.

While I understand your comment that HN is a diverse site, and you are very correct there, I am not trying to make all of HN my opponent in this debate. I'm very plainly, although maybe I did poorly, hoping to make an opponent of a specific -- and in my opinion very common -- mindset on HN. With the goal of deconstructing it and ideally maybe even dismantling it.

To that end, I don't agree at all the YC leadership is doing a meaningful job of actually addressing sustainability via their practices as a business. I have read the words that you're referring to, which IMO are aimed at discussing sustainability. However, their practices are in direct opposition to those ideas. The startups they fund, the businesses they push to IPOs, and the monologues that they write on their blogs are far-more-often-than-not geared toward one goal: making money and expanding YC and the reach of tech related businesses, IMO without much regard for the impact it has on the world. I recognize that this is an opinion, and you pretty obviously aren't sympathetic to it, but it's fairly empirical in terms of substantive projects that YC has pushed hardest financially/philosophically. It's also empirical in terms of the replies on major posts, particularly the entrepreneurial ones.

And because you've implied this is off topic on a post about lichess, I should also clarify: I see the goals and accomplishments of lichess to be worth even more when juxtaposed against these YC culture. Especially knowing that someone like ornicar faced a very real choice when deciding to pursue lichess as his primary endeavor. I think he deserves to be applauded not only on his own, but also in that context. I also think it's no coincidence he is from France.

AFAIU the only danger is in using your public signing key to initiate key exchange. In that case you always want to make sure you're generating a random ephemeral key pair to send. But in this case you're definitely not accidentally doing anything. Curve25519 schemes were designed to be robust to potential misuse.

But your point still stands--it's yet another question to be concerned with. And if you want to take a belt & suspenders approach then sticking with two different public keys is perfectly defensible, just as one might prefer Encrypt-then-HMAC rather than an AEAD scheme. (FWIW, I do.) And regardless of this hidden complexity, Curve25519 schemes don't harbor nearly the same potential risks as RSA schemes.

But I just saw a ton of discussion about the complexity of PEM and ASN.1 and how they seem to, to rephrase, sully or taint the elegance of Ed25519, and my first thought was the emphasis was mislaid. Not quite cargo culting--I can take either side of the text vs binary protocol debate, or appreciate why people may prefer some binary TLV encoding schemes more than others--but I thought it worthwhile to point out that there's hidden, much more consequential complexity just beneath the surface. If you're designing or implementing a protocol, using PKIX (ASN.1 DER) encoding for public keys isn't even blip on your complexity radar--or won't be after all is said and done if its your first time. Until recently most binary protocols I've ever seen adopted PKIX key encoding (either SubjectPublicKeyInfo or at least the inner RSA fields) even when they completely avoided PKIX certificates or other ASN.1 serialization schemes. And the extra step of PEM encoding is arguably a bonus--PEM encoded keys are a well known quantity, and have advantages like being easily text searchable to help catch key leaks. Relative to the broader complexity these things are normally not something worth pondering, at least not if you had already settled on a binary protocol.

You're right to be bitter, especially so because Lego has a pretty sordid history in this respect, the only reason they exist is because the founder copied someone else's IP and made a bundle of money on it. At the root of every great fortune there is a great crime. Oh, and the original inventor committed suicide. Those little details.
As an infectious disease epidemiologist, after HIV, malaria is probably the next most closely studied and well-funded infectious disease we look into. It's also been a WHO priority for basically the entire existence of the WHO.

> storying inventory based on the impact to assembly continuity?

It's always been about that.

JIT can be looked at as, "right part in the right quantity at the right time." That can mean "milk runs" where assemblies are delivered to the final assembly plant twice a day. An AM delivery where the last assembly is bolted to a car as the PM delivery arrives. Or it means "kanban orders" where 1 week supply of parts is delivered on a Monday and a refresh the next Monday. Or it means you buy in bulk and get 3 months supply at once.

JIT and everything around "Lean manufacturing" and the "Toyota Production System (TPS)" are ideals to strive for. Not everything in Toyota operates according to the ideals. There are certain fundamental things (e.g., stability in material, personnel, machinery, and methods) that need to be in place before starting to reduce inventory.

When suppliers have trouble with providing defect free parts, the orders start to increase in quantity and decrease in frequency. These can be subject to 100% incoming inspection if the supplier's quality comes into question enough.

> massive volume with really little head

This is really key, there just isn't that much energy available in a small enough area for utility scale production. I would add the caveat that for small scale production, some schemes could actually work quite well, like some kite schemes. But no one is investing in small scale, all the development is for multi megawatt systems.

I agree with you about science-per-dollar, but I don't think that was ever the criteria for large projects like this (or ISS). Sometimes the payoff is in learning to do the next hard thing, building the next generation of tools, etc.
Malaria is an endemic disease in parts of Africa (constant occurrence in a population). An epidemic is a disease rapidly spreading in a population (sudden outbreak). Pandemic is a worldwide outbreak.

The parasite has non-human reservoirs, which is one of many reasons that eradicating malaria is extremely difficult. That being said, a protective vaccine even absent herd immunity would be a huge thing.

What's interesting is that I did this recently and came to the opposite conclusion. Did you look at the situation when restricted to >= 250kW chargers? It's a completely different story, and that's with only one major CCS provider competing with Tesla. In the long run, those other chargers won't matter, and Tesla's expansion has been slow.
I believe Google is more concerned with combating the apparent world-ending risk of someone discovering misinformation and parsing that information themselves (gasp), than providing a useful search engine to the majority who are using it with good intentions, as you described.

The point is that the technology for long life laptops has been ready for a long time. It's just that Intel marketing calls all the shots and they only wanted to sell multicore space heaters with space heater memory to sweeten the deal. With this burden on chipset side, it was impossible to compensate with extra amp hours and maintain portable weight.
We tried it in Africa. A lot. DDT is great - it's cheap, it's persistent, and there was a heady note of optimism that we might be able to drive malaria to extinction via vector control.

Then DDT-resistance developed in the mosquitos.

Combined with the health and ecological concerns around it, its use was largely halted. It's been reinvigorated recently as malaria incidence has rose, but it's a trade-off that it would be nice to minimize with other approaches.

The uneasy intimacy of work in a pandemic year
Damage is done... NYC saw a drop in vaccine appointments right after the original ban on J&J happen.

They could have issued a warning first, with the group ages/sex that they were seeing the clots (it was mostly women). Now they are scaring the 'indecisive' part of the population, and just making sure the pandemic will keep going.

Both the CDC and the FDA have completely dropped the ball during this pandemic. They are acting like typical bureaucrats, with the 'you don't fired if you buy IBM' type of mentality, and instead of being aggressive, they are just acting in a way so they don't get fired.

They should have done challenge trials back in April last year, and ask for military style of mobilization on productions, instead of just doing the normal/usual trails.

It would have speedup the vaccine rollout even more, and perhaps save at least 200k lives or more. (mask requirements on the Federal level, would have saved another 100-200k people).

Adam's post about agility is a good read, but it's worth remembering that it makes a prediction which did not in fact come true.

> When we try to add a fourth (TLS 1.3) in the next year, we'll have to add back the workaround, no doubt.

Adam is talking about the unsafe downgrade fallback, traditionally done by web browsers, not so long ago even falling back to SSLv3 which was long obsolete.

But in fact today, if your web browser connects to a remote server proposing TLS 1.3 and the remote server just silently drops the connection because it can't conceive of such a thing, the browser goes "Huh, I guess TLS doesn't work on that server" not "Let's try again with TLS 1.2" because the design in TLS 1.3 actually works, even if getting there was a heroic effort. A compliant TLS 1.2 server will do TLS 1.2, and sufficiently non-compliant ones just break and are now presumably very rare.
The case in point here though was GIMP not Blender. I'm not sure whether they provide or provided such clarification.
No, the same could not have been said. Solar and wind have been working for ages in many ways and forms. Tidal has been a pipe dream since the beginning of the previous century. It won't work. Windmills are in use the world over, the power of the sun is what causes the wind in the first place and besides has been used directly using lenses since forever.

Getting usable power out of tidal energy is stupendously hard and won't scale.

And yes, we're on HN. And yes, having built a windmill (not a toy, one that can power a house) and having worked with innovative solar plants (specifically: concentrators) and finally, having consulted on tidal energy projects I actually think I know what I'm talking about. Tidal energy = uBeam = Theranos.

I hope you will share your decision with us if you can, would be interesting to understand.

Good luck.
Vector control is the primary way that epidemiology and disease ecology have been exploring reducing the burden of malaria (and Dengue, and a number of other diseases).

Genetically engineered, effectively sterile mosquito breeds are part of that effort. But that is hard to do - ecological systems are hard to push off stable equilibria.
The one I use for anything that might take user input from a browser is the one defined in the HTML5 spec for input[type=email]:

There’s no sense being less permissive, if it’s good enough for browsers it’s the baseline expected by browser users. But there’s no sense being more permissive for the same reason.
Thanks for the link, I'll read it this evening.

I appreciate the correction of primary, I agree it's an unnecessary broad characterization. I also understand your concern with the "distancing" you're referring to, however:

I think there's a subtle line between being willing to engage with someone the way you speak of and tolerating behavior that is socially toxic. If there's something I feel like has been learned over the last 30 years, it's that some portion of the population (the term "privileged" is often used here) are enabled by society to be deaf in their actions and the impacts of those actions on others. Whether the "privilege" causing their deafness be power that is rooted in money, race, or simply being member of a majority in some sense... the impact is the same. They need to be hit over the head with the mirror of what they are creating and, yes, sometimes that action is a bit emotionally violent. Or, in your language, sometimes that requires creating a characterization/image of their actions which can sometimes look similar to what you are calling distancing. I think the unfortunate simple difference between being unnecessarily divisive in your commentary (which I think is a summary of what you're asserting I've done) and calling people out for their bad behavior... is simply whether your characterization of their behavior is accurate or not. I hope I'm being fair and accurate and I think you've done a good job in pointing out the ways I was not.
Just one point of contention here:

You don't "spend" time recharging an EV unless your one-way trip is longer than the maximum range.

You get where you're going, plug in and come back to more power than you had before you left.

One of my Kenyan colleagues casually talked about every time she visited her grandmother, they came down with malaria.
Excellent news.

The unfortunate thing is the level of ignorance today mistakes a very careful effort make sure the vaccine is safe with a wanton ignoring of some danger.

Beyond talking about the fact that they determined this was safe, at some point educating people on danger in statistical terms is going to be necessary. But I'm not sure how that happens - addiction to headline-logic and single-heart-pulling-events is a huge part of the news industry.

I just read the linked Axios article, so perhaps there is more in the CDC decision, but seems like it would make the most sense to just recommend against the J&J vaccine for anyone at higher risk of clot (e.g. all 6 of the people who had clots were women of childbearing age). With 3 good vaccines available, seems like there is plenty (or shortly will be plenty) to go around even if the J&J vaccine only goes to those at low clot risk.

The NFL came up with a "three-of-four" metric. If you're not a group of vaccinated people, then it basically means you need to meet three of the following four: 1) limited duration, 2) ventilation (outdoors), 3) distancing, 4) masks

The NYT recently came out with a graphic that is similar, but two-of-three: 1) outdoors, 2) distancing, 3), masks
