As much as I want to believe but half of these phenomena look either like something venting from the ground (fig. 1, assuming a prevailing wind direction), flowing down a hill (fig. 4, linear structures) or things previously covered (by dust) being layed open (fig. 22). The most interesting images were the spherical things that appeared or grew during a few sols (e.g. fig. 8).

I'll be real, it's interesting to post this stuff and see how many downvotes saying factually correct stuff will get you compared to comments.

It's like people downvote when they have nothing to say. What's wrong with this comment, HN? Is it too on the nose? We are supposed to wrap all of our disagreements in snide pedantry, no?

We supposed to act like most of YCs founders and to use tacky business speak when we hit any rough patches?

Is this too mean to change the world? I see it's flagged now. Good, gooood. dang and company and YCs alums and all you groupies close ranks and edit, shuffle, and remove posts and people when they talk a little too different from you. That's why this place is a dead echo chamber composed of 90% males of the same demographics.
No, the creation of the Soviet Union was a disaster of unimaginable scale. It simply had to end at some time, because it was corrupt and the economy inefficient in every way and morally bankrupt. The forced annexation of other countries and deportations of nations inside the SU were horrible crimes.

Do you suggest that the soviet union should not have collapsed?
The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster was caused by the Tohoku earthquake and tsunami. They are separate, but related disasters. Despite the low fatality rate, there is no doubt that it was a disaster. Radioactive material was released and 150,000 people were evacuated.
Fair point. It seems that the web doesn't forbid you to do your own stuff on the side, it's just that the mainstream has become a commercial enterprise with its (large) share of constraint. Probably nothing new under the sun.

Short term yes, not paying for things feels better than paying for things. Long term, we end up in the situation when most people recognize current model leads to gross distortions, perverse initiatives, and many sites being next to unusable.

This announcement may be an intentional excuse to give Biden a new progressive thing to do domestically (it's not new information.) Maybe I'm just hopeful. The administration seems (to me) to be trying to convert/retain the left-of-Democrats audience who only reluctantly turned out for him. They're going to need it.

edit: I'd love a net neutrality bill or order, but I'd prefer net neutrality + prison time for those responsible for the fraud.
SVE2 isn't all that different from SVE. The early SVE introductory papers and tutorials are all great information.

FB does enforce the fair housing act and other laws. The platform is actually quite strict nowadays and catches lots of innocent ads in their filters for protected categories. Ad platforms should follow the law, that's working as planned.

As a side note, it's funny how people say that ads are terrible, but also its terrible if certain groups of people don't get to see ads.
I find it interesting how ethics seems to play a large part in the discussion about ads and big tech in general on HN.

Putting aside the privacy and PII concerns, it seems like there is a large contingent of HN'ers who are uncomfortable with the idea that websites/apps are addictive or manipulative or otherwise take advantage of flaws in human nature. For instance: we like shiny things with lots of colors/movement, we generally leave things on default, we engage with hate/dissent more readily than other things, etc.

Many HN'ers seem to be uncomfortable with this even if the people using these websites/apps are adults.

This seems to fly directly in the face of another seemingly wide-held opinion: that the rights of an individual to make their own choices should not be abridged, regardless of what those choices are, who they are, what they believe in, etc. as long as they are adults.

I wonder how these two beliefs coexist although perhaps I've misread the room.
Focus on what FAANG can’t usually give — high signal/noise ratio, feeling of being really important and appreciated, opportunities of making big impact, near zero bureaucracy, big stock options etc.

I didn't, actually, we were in a rush and we started building something with socket.io which I guess is (one of) the easiest way to start. And then we had to scale the backend accordingly and it was a pain in the neck.

To be honest, I'm wondering if there's a space for a SAAS product around realtime...

That's exactly what we dont need. 99% would use the token to move value (pay for something) and we really dont need a bazillion different tokens for that. Also most tokens are not stable and thus not very desirably for payment.
Here’s a newer talk from him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L43-XE1uwWc
Also the reactor design was flawed - the control rods that should have stopped the reactor actually increased the reactivity while moving down into the reactor. Energy spikes were observed in different plants when shutting down the reactors, but they were classified to not show the reactor design (and by proxy the soviet union) in a bad light, so the operators had no idea of this critical fault.
There's not really any tutorials yet I'm afraid. I'm working on it though!
The issue with an alarm only when something is wrong, is that you don't know that your monitoring system is working until you actually get that notification. You could just check the system every day and avoid the 'heartbeat' email, but that's likely to be forgotten/missed more often than seeing/reading the received email.

You could set up a monitoring system for the monitoring system...
It's also a strange statement because US housing is highly regional; there are no bungalow courts in New York as there are no brownstones in LA.

I don't think that's a totally unfair statement depending on the region though. At least in Seattle a fair amount of homes are Craftsman homes which haven't aged well since they were ordered directly from a Sears catalog without considering the very wet local climate of the Northwest. (And yes, that Sears and that Craftsman.)
Not really.. most of these companies aren't trying to evade the law- in fact the industry is mostly begging for regulatory clarity in order to be in compliance. Nobody wants to invest millions into something that may or may not end up being designated as illegal.
Not in my experience in the workplace. Your mileage may vary, but I’ve never been preached to about Christianity in my work experience. Meanwhile there are usually plenty of meetings and group emails about stuff like diversity, people openly express their support of Democratic politicians or hate toward republican politicians, etc.

If someone at my work stated in a meeting they don’t believe in Christianity I would never expect them to be fired, if they stated that about DEI or even disagreeing with a specific DEI strategy or tactic of the company, i’d expect trouble. If someone has a dissenting opinion there they need to keep quiet for their own good, as this guy at basecamp learned.

We have unlimited vacation time I have taken 4 days holiday and 6 days sick leave in the past 12 months (4 days because i was on my ass with the COVID vaccine doses).

I would have normally taken at least 20 days holiday but it seems pointless to take time off to sit at home and do nothing.

This year i have 2 weeks in July and 2 in October and a week for thanksgiving and a week for Christmas.

This seems like it should be labeled as some kind of social law: Any blockchain will always converge towards a speculation vehicle.

In much the same way, social networks almost always seem to become hookup platforms.
The health/hygiene argument has been thoroughly dismantled. That argument is akin to saying that we should remove people's teeth so that they don't have to deal with cavities. The only time there is a difference in hygiene between a circumcised and uncircumcised penis is if they both go unwashed for an extended period of time. I also don't buy these utilitarian arguments. If someone wants to trade the benefits of an uncircumcised penis for those of a circumcised penis, they can make that permanent decision for themselves.
This entire article seems like some pretty obvious stuff that most people understand very well, wrapped in a veil of apparent profundity.

First of all: it makes one very large assumption from the beginning that is never mentioned: "I, pg, can confidently identify a reasonable domain expert".

That's basically a fallacy: this is the hardest thing to be sure of and Dunning Kruger applies heavily here (both for the apparent domain expert, and also for the person listening to their idea, who considers themselves such an excellent judge of the speaker's expertise).

Beyond that, there's nothing profound here: any "average" person, when listening to a person they trust (and "trust" here means they believe that this person is competent, i.e. is a "reasonable domain expert"), will heed their ideas, and be more likely to consider the "crazy" ones. Paul is not unique nor advanced in this regard.

The unstated problem is knowing whether you're good at identifying experts.
Thank you! I wanted to write a positive comment but couldn’t put my finger on it. This is exactly what has me interested in Mighty: making things ever so slightly easier. I already have a fast computer, but I’d still like to try, as there is room for surprise. And the service suggests it is aimed at reducing all manner of friction in using a browser: tab management, etc

This may or may not work but there seems to be obvious potential and In don’t know why people are so dismissive. If it improves worker productivity or saves on hardware upgrade costs, every business will want this.
So like a twitter poll?
> A law that mandates that I or anyone must broadcast a politician's opinion - this is a textbook example of compelling speech.

You are not Twitter or Facebook. Stop pretending these giant social behemoths are people, they are not.

Google deplatformed The Federalist, Press California, and Parler just recently, not a great example to use.

"unlimited vacation time" is just really an accounting hack. It allows the employer not to have to track that stuff and on your way out, owe you nothing for vacation time. It also allows them to say, well, it's unlimited, take it when you want; then the only option to take time off is around federal holidays. It's basically a scheme to rip you off....
Recently I got laser eye surgery to help my vision. This was not covered by my insurance. It also happened to be the simplest medical procedure/payment I ever had to interact with. They told me "this procedure will cost $X.XX and we have a discount we can offer you that will save you X%" I said okay and paid them the money.

Compare that to insurance being involved recently in my wife's diabetes supplies. My wife is a type 1 diabetic and needs supplies that monitor her blood sugar, we noticed her supplies didn't arrive on the scheduled date, we waited a week to see if they would show up and they didn't. My wife called the company that was supposed to send them, they said our account was in collections? Why, we never received a bill, we never were notified, but in collections we were. We eneded up paying and got that sorted out and waited another week, still no supplies. I'll cut it short and just say it took us 3 weeks being on the phone multiple times a day being bounced around between our insurance, the supplier and her dr, to finally get told we couldn't get the supplies because my wife had gotten a new phone and so the insurance company didn't have enough data to prove that she needed these supplies, and wouldn't reauthorize them. The drama is still ongoing.

Let's get this straight a huge part of the healthcare costs are directly related to insurance and the money and laws tied up in that. We need to get rid of insurance, and the way it works if we honestly want to make any change. Any other effort will only further entrench the confusopoly.

I was taken aback by how much more relaxed I felt in general after going 100% remote, after spending 10+ years commuting up to 4 hours round trip per day in the SF bay area.

My comp is lower now but it's easily a net win.
> in what way is something like a yubikey secured via a password?

It isn't, which makes me confused about how it is supposed to be more secure. If I lose my keys with a physical security key attached, not only do I now have to worry about somebody breaking into my house, but all of my online/digital properties as well (assuming passwords become a thing of the past). If they have my phone which has Touch/Face ID enabled, that poses a much more significant challenge to an attacker (and can maybe be mitigated if I can remote wipe the device in time).
The fonts that ship with most Android installs are really uninspiring. That's one platform that really needs better built-in fonts, otherwise the "out of box" typography is pretty dreary -- it's effectively just Roboto which can get monotonous really fast, and a very mediocre (imo) Roman typeface.
There’s probably truth to that but I think it stems from what seems to be a quite commonly held opinion that ads are hostile to humans. They clutter our browsing and viewing experiences, not to mention our physical world. They use malicious tactics to steal our attention from what we would otherwise choose for ourselves. And the industry spends vast physical and intellectual resources which could almost certainly be spent in a more beneficial / less societally harmful way.

So it’s hardly a surprise to me that people see it as ok for Google to use their information to provide them a service like routing, but disapprove of their using that data to enable an industry they see as harmful. I don’t think the problem is exclusively that Google makes money but rather that they make money as the kingpin of an industry most people feel negatively impacts their lives.
You'd still need to host it, which involves money, a way to pay for it (credit card), which includes proving/disclosing your identity (which would be dangerous if you're speaking out against an authoritarian government), sometimes you legally have to be over 18 or 21 to enter into contracts (so if the service provider finds out you're underage they can shut down your account even if you otherwise pay the bill), and hosting anything controversial or that goes against the mainstream is unlikely to stay up for long if it gets popular.

Agreed.

Entrenched institutions are the general problem with America. It's the police unions protecting bad policing, the restricting of doctor supply via the residency bottleneck, and local governments preventing new building for burgeoning populations.

They're all the same problem really. Beneficial to the incumbent group at the expense of those they service. It's kind of amazing.

Did he really not have _any_ sense of a proper dose? Seems unlikely.

I will say that hiring people who are risk averse is great for middle managers who will say NO to most opportunities because they're more afraid of failure than they are interested in opportunity.

Hire risk takers and you get risk takers.

I agree with the cool-factor of having people on mars. And with that said: for this specific task, we could get remote robots to do this task with zero threat to well educated, trained, and physically fit human life. People on mars would be AMAZING... and, NOT having people on mars is amazing too: it gives us such a great moment where "Hey, we NEED to solve this with technology.", and I see that leading to benefits across the board.
It wasn't banned per se - it was just that with a non-exchangable currency getting hold of a copy of anything was difficult.

It's even more prescient considering that on my screen, those two letters look exactly the same.
There are two ways of looking at this:

1. PG is selling us something.
2. PG just open-sourced a part that seems like a component of the YC admissions logic.

I personally don't care if it's just 2) or if it's 1) and 2) - in each case I get to learn something new and for that I am grateful. Basically, they must have established that whenever they can't tell if you're right or wrong, they ask themselves how likely are you to know something that they don't. This seems obvious enough, but only after you've heard it explained. Also, it might be obvious to each individual to a different degree, so when you consider that YC applications are reviewed by a large group of people, it's almost certain that this is all codified in such a way that the reviewers are not just judging the startup alone, but likely also the founder independently of their startup. As you can tell, I clearly don't have any inside knowledge here and this is all just speculation. But if I were to submit a YC application, I would certainly ask myself now more than ever before how to make people believe that I am an expert in the field of my startup.
If that's the case, I haven't seen it. Equity can come with clawback criteria, but that usually has a defined duration, which has certainly expired because the company was founded 8 years ago.

Companies can't just kick someone off the cap table once they have vested equity.
It was obvious at the time. I recall many people reporting that fake comments antithetical to their own beliefs had been submitted using their identities.
