The problem with the article is that it lacks substance. As an example, it mentions that al-ion has intrinsic advantages and disadvantages compared to li-ion, but it only talks about advantages.

Aluminum-ion technology has intrinsic advantages and disadvantages over the preeminent lithium-ion battery technology being used in almost every EV today.

What do calendar and cycle life in different conditions look like? How do weight/volume per unit power/energy compare with existing li-ion cells? And so on...

It seems like they found a way to improve the energy density of the al-ion cells mentioned in this Stanford news story.

https://news.stanford.edu/2015/04/06/aluminum-ion-battery-03...

But without more detailed specs, it's impossible to compare their cells to existing li-ion cells outside of the specific examples they are using.
I use starlink to work remotely, and it's a massive improvement from my DSL. Even with beta downtime, I am more reliably connecting to video calls, and remote desktop. I wish the verge would come and review my DSL connection for fair comparison.
I did a deep dive with a friend of mine (we’re both OS engineers) and its going to be a hell of a cookie to crack.

There is a literal virtual tumbler built into the transaction protocol called ring signatures.

Stealth addresses (an additional crypto key pair) obfuscate senders and receivers.

They also hide the amount transferred which blew my mind.
I'm enjoying my experience, but I anticipated the problems and kept my other ISPs. I've seen pings around 55ms at lowest. My other LTE providers are 70 to 95ms, and there is a difference.

I'm in rural NW Arkansas and I have two LTE providers plus Starlink. I'm not even using bonding - tons of things support multiple tcp streams, and those that don't it's worthwhile to have each ISP be fairly strong.

Worst case my speed tests will show 150mbit / 20mbit. Best case it's 300mbit / 90mbit. I do have the Starlink connection on a 5 second watchdog, so I will see 5 seconds of nothing when things aren't ideal, before the connection is retried over one of the other ISPs.

Why shouldn't people face consequences for their actions? You're stating that it's okay for someone to be prejudiced on the weekends, but people targeted by that prejudice don't have that privilege.
It's still not true unless they decide to move forward. Clearly bad things are going down, but they have not resigned until they decide to resign.

And while they clearly seem ready to do so, this does not mean it will happen. The problem could end up corrected, especially seeing what is on the line.

The problem is that there is no change or any notion of time flow in physical models. They describe a static 4-D universe. So there is no particle but there is a one-dimensional world line in the equations with no difference between points. Surely time has a particular property that is reflected in the equations that one can predict across time and not space. The notion of that world line reflects this. But this does not tell why we perceive those world lines point by point.

I.e. a physical model is like a set of frames for a movie with particular relations between frames. But it does not tell why if we see the movie we perceive the motion and not, for example the whole movie at once. Or why the perception is across time and not space.

And since these being discussed in various forms since at least Parmenides and Buddha I doubt this will be resolved any time soon.

> But The Verge has long had a hard rule against reviewing products based on potential because the sad truth is that most tech products never, ever live up to their potential. And Starlink, judged on its capabilities right now, is simply not a real competitor to the long, long coax wire running from my house to the local cable company fiber plant.

The article seems okay, the only thing I really take issue with is the title. None of the "dreams" have "fallen to earth" yet -- SpaceX has launched ~15% of their constellation and are extremely clear about what limitations users should expect during the beta.
I think the parent's point was that if oil infrastructure is completely disrupted, consumers won't even be affected for a few days and the short-term consequences will be somewhat minor (some percentage of drivers won't be able to drive, deliveries may be delayed).

If a hospital is shut down, then people will start dying immediately. The consequences are much more direct and severe.
At my school (Macalester), we use git(and GitHub classrooms) in the intro class. It doesn't have to include the more complex stuff like rebase, merge conflict.

This way, as a TA, I can also code review them and it also deters plagarization.
I'm fairly certain that it's not the authors of the papers. Hiding away research behind paywalls and subscriptions is extremely weird and counter productive to free and open research.

If you know that a paper exists, you can just email the authors and ask if they'll send you a pdf. My guess is that most will just send it to you, along with instructions on how to correctly cite them.

Years ago I had a Danish university lawyer look at me weird and ask if I was serious, when I asked what right a public funded university had to sell a patent to a US company. My logic was, and still is, that Danish companies already paid for the research and the patent via their taxes, so they should be legally allowed to use it for free. Apparently it's crazy talk to assume that something paid for by the tax payers should actually belong to those tax payers.
I know you're saying this in jest, but that's the calculus.

The outcome here shows that executives made the right call. The $5MM fee was easily paid, less than the costs of security, and the insurance company will probably cover it anyway. And the government/people were so outraged that the attackers were met with fucking swift justice.

The company will probably get some grants or something to cover the cost of "securing their infrastructure." Never let a good crisis go to waste.
I think as long as we are emulating the cloud runtime and services it will not reach it‘s full potential.

Nano has 128 Maxwell cores, which is the GeForce 900 generation. The Xavier MX, for 4x the cost, has 384 Volta cores. Dhewm3 on the Nano pulls 34 FPS at 1280x720. On the Xavier NX it runs at 88 FPS. On the pi4 it runs at 7.5 FPS. On a pi3 at 640x480 it takes several seconds per frame. Mostly a shortage of memory though.

CPU speed is ordered pi3, nano, pi4, Xavier no. Memory bandwidth on the jetsons is much higher than on the pis.
I agree that build systems like CMake should be taught, but I'd put them in a course on C/C++ programming, not on a general course about Unix and the command line.

The largest clinical trial that I could find here have a COVID positive population of 70 people [1]. This reinforces my point I believe, in that there is no systemic anti-ivermectin bias, but there is a dearth of information wrt. dosage requirements, efficacy, etc. If larger clinical trials show that it is broadly effective - that is great news. But it would be irresponsible to recommend it as a frontline treatment without this information surely?

No, but if all the miners fork from all the non mining nodes, the chain with all the miners will be more secure. If a minority of miners side with the non mining nodes, that chain will be more vulnerable to disruption.

Oil is flowing constantly and continuously into every corner of the country. The storage capacity is negligible and the need is critical. Unlike a single hospital there is very little room to shift excess capacity relative to usage and the knock on effects are potentially catastrophic (we lose power to every hospital in 500 miles and nobody can run the generator).
I don't get the push for rust as a front-end language, it's very distracting with a lot of low-level features.

Can we just stick with "best tool for the job"?

Rust for performance-critical systems and, say, typescript for front-end? Using a single language for everything is a wet dream that always ends up in complexity and more work as you're fighting the "native" ecosystem.

All of this complication is the problem. Jeff ends up getting benefits that most people don't get, at least not most younger people.

15% and/or 20% plus 3.8% is still less than the 22% to 32% range that a lot of people will fall into. And that 22-32% is on 100% of taxable income, there is no break on part of it.

If you read the article, you'll see their explanation: Vim is the most popular command-line editor (from a Stack Overflow survey) and all of the instructors know how to use it. The course is pretty *nix based so it makes sense to pick a command line editor and focus on it.

Pragmatically, Emacs is usually not installed by default on Linux systems and Nano sometimes isn't. If you had to pick a command-line editor to teach, Vi/Vim is probably the safest bet.

It’s certainly failing now, but MTV did pioneer music videos which account for a large percentage of YouTube’s videos views. I remember being able to watch music videos on MTV at one point, I’m not sure how they dropped the ball there. It’s obviously preferable to be able to watch the video you want to see instead of having to sit through the TRL countdown and they knew it was coming.

The other item that was pioneered by MTV was reality TV, which although I hate it has now become a lot of what social media like Instagram is made up of. Why aren’t the kardashians posting on an MTV platform?
Yes, your article says that both the poor and the rich are more likely to be targeted which is true but it doesn't negate my claim. The very rich are much more likely to be targeted than any other category.

Later in life I took a coding bootcamp as part of a career change.

One of the students I was friends with was much younger than me, smart kid, very good in the camp, still college age / situation in life, and after the bootcamp he decided to go back to school for a CS degree after some "hey you're more than capable of qualifying for a lot of scholarships" type discussions.

Anyway we met up a while later and he described how he was in these classes with theory and various languages and so on.

Then the students would do projects together and they'd look at him like he was a wizard with what were fairly rudimentary debugging but still similar skills to what us described in 'the missing semester of CS education', or at the very least the ability / lack of fear to pick them up fast (something that if you're good at it is super handy in a fast moving boot camp).

I remember when I was in college (dropped out for a variety of reasons) I really hated theory or 'just learn this focused thing you'll understand later' type classes when I just couldn't see ... the end use / test that end use in front of my face.

It occurred to us that a sort of 'full stack light' boot camp almost would be a good intro to some of these deeper programs. Even if just to give some level of ... practicality / way of testing / seeing output ... etc.

No doubt that many schools / departments would be averse to such a system for a lot of reasons. Even the bootcamp I went to was hosted by the same large university... but was sourced bought from some outside company and had NO association with the CS and similar departments.

Until one of those people buys a Tesla with bitcoin (yeah, I know they just stopped doing that) from a wallet that can be traced to that payment, and then its just the authorities following up the chain.

People like to seem like all these crypto's are totally anonymous, but every transaction ends up in some sort of public blockchain. So unless you have air-tight OPSEC and people that will never talk, no matter what kind of jail time they are facing, its always going to be traceable with enough interest.

I agree with you that an attack on a hospital is an attack on infrastructure, though I disagree with your arguments regarding oil infrastructure.

The difference is response is a matter of impact scale. Usually, the infrastructure of a small group of hospitals is at stake. This time an entire state is hoarding gasoline. Both are infrastructure but the latter is causing nationwide effects.
Those numbers are very low for London, you might see them in the rest of the UK though.
Nor can you store gasoline for long unless you stabilize it (and even then), and certainly not safely in most residences. Classic car owners run into this issue, as do the diesel tanks for generators in datacenters (diesel is much more stable than gasoline)

Why do so many / "all" people at Twitter seem to agree with the most disappointed people who quit?

Whilst here at HN, different people have different viewpoints (not all of them the same) -- there are 1) some who think like those at Twitter, whilst 2) others see things more from DHH's and Jason's perspective.

And 3) some here at HN, seems you're one of them, understand both perspectives at the same time.

Why no people from the last two "groups", on Twitter? (at least I didn't stumble upon any such tweets)
Wild guess: the purpose of that module is to learn how to use a real editor on the command line. Which is available everywhere and has been installed by default on nearly every environment I've ever logged in to. Not to broadly introduce the many editors we have available in the world.

> Gp plainly specified that they mean to distinguish between people of Chinese descent and CCP supporters.

No, they plainly specified that they wanted to distinguish between other Asians and Chinese, and of the Chinese between CCP and non-CCP supporters. But in another comment they note that the majority of Chinese are CCP supporters anyway.

Let me ask, what do you think the end effect of this “racial distinguishing” is? What do we do once we’ve identified the “problematic ones”? How would such a system be implemented? Anyone could just claim to be non- Chinese/CCP supporters. Perhaps, a tattoo?
Deno and pure Rust are on the roadmap. Node.js is only used as an alternative to the Cargo based CLI.
i.e. the crap I have to teach (or tell to self-teach) 95% of people who are taking on a programming role.

While I understand the value of distinguishing between CS and software engineering, not being comfortable with basic shell commands, installing programming language tools, compiling something using those tools, or source control means that there has been a huge gap between theory and practice in their education, which hurts understanding of both.

Particularly when interacting with senior CS students, they'll spend 6 months just getting comfortable doing very basic things like installing and running Python, using ssh with a VM, and using the command line. They try to do productive work, but their unfamiliarity with the basic tools of making software means they actually spend their time learning that.

Actually, this also applies to the basics of just writing a functioning library or piece of software, or being familiar with async vs. sync programming, etc etc. It would be better if they could dip their toes into these things while learning about, say, algorithms, because identifying the slow step in its execution context and designing a better algorithm requires knowing this stuff. Or even better, before doing any of that. I've met people with 6+ years of CS or CS-related educational background who don't know how to do basic problem solving / troubleshooting of their work because they've only done toy coding for coursework.
