Not at all.

This is a known hazard when working on waste-water networks. There are a few deaths every decade, despite nearly everyone having gas detectors (and being told to use them before going into a manhole).

At high enough concentrations, H2S just shuts down your smell receptors.
Yep. Even before technology made checking easy it was common for employers to ask about criminal convictions. Felons have had difficulty getting jobs since long before the Internet came around. In theory they'd paid their debt to society, but in practice society kept punishing them indefinitely. The internet (and background check databases, etc) just makes this cheaper for employers to do, but didn't cause the problem.
I can say from experience on the other side that asking random employees of the company for API access on LinkedIn could work. People will inevitably drop a screenshot into Slack, ask who can help with this, and the right people will get tagged to take a look. No promises they actually do anything, but its probably a better shot than cold emails.
There are zillions of flood myths. More of them are cataclysmic like Noah and his ark, than gradual over a generation like The Pretenders' My City Was Gone.

Interesting. Sounds like Brave's BAT token then? I assume the websites you visited got paid a little bit of your Eth?

How does that work? Is it a vanilla Eth transfer, or is a contract generated each time and you review the Solidity code before proceeding?

I’m all ears if you have a good idea. “Obviously ridiculous” sounds like a great standard to block an acquisition. Explain what’s obviously ridiculous about it.

I judge these things on the potential for harm to consumers. I don’t see that here. Perhaps you do.

Do you see this leading to increased prices or a reduction in quantity consumed? (And of what, btw?) That’s how we make these judgments so if it’s obvious to you, let’s talk.

And these cryptocurrencies are akin to letting whatever group holds the highest stake or the most computing power decide to go to war instead. So much better. Yay.
The bottleneck is not kwh of electricity produced, but storage. Hydrogen cards do well on that bottleneck.
You are also emitting microwaves as blackbody radiation. In order to cause heating they need extreme intensities only found on radar dishes and inside a microwave oven. Radio waves can be harmful when they reach high enough intensities. However the phones and laptops are just fine.

VERY old tube televisions on the other hand could be pretty dangerous. They were essentially particle accelerators and could generate X-rays. Newer tube televisions and LCD displays are completely safe, unless you count the possible disruption of sleep by producing light 16-24 hours a day.

>Its price will also tumble 99%

From your lips to God's ears. If the price falls steeply there will be a glut of gpus flooding the market and I'll finally be able to build a pc.
Often overlooked is when you turn a hydrogen car off, it's off. Come back days or even months later and it should be exactly as you left it.

On the other hand a Tesla Model 3 requires a lot of energy to stay warm in the winter - some reports from the dead of winter of it taking 2000 watts just to stay warm. Under extreme conditions you can't leave it unplugged for a week or possibly even a weekend without concern over the battery charge and health.

There's better ways to insulate the battery of course, but there's always going to be some tradeoffs to maintain a safe battery temperature at rest and in use.
My Daughter Doesn’t Use Social Media–But She’s Being Cyberbullied
This report seems to reinforce a notion that I've had for quite some time: The latest tech entrepreneur hype cycle is churning out very enthusiastic, hopeful/jr. entrepreneurs who have nearly nothing to offer in terms of vision, product, service, technical ability, etc.

Being an "entrepreneur" is a means to and end, not and end in and of itself.
Exchanges like CoinBase will stake for you. You as an individual don't have to do anything.
If you're going the scientific computing / HPC server route, then the sky's the limit for core count, you can buy dozens of these and connect them up with Infiniband to run your MPI job or whatever. The point is, the people buying Mac Pros are usually content creators (photography, video editing, music composition, animation etc...) rather than researchers for numerical computation, and for them Mac Pros are probably going to be sufficient enough (unless you are doing 3D animation and need render farms). Most number-crunching scientific code is written only for Linux, you'll never buy a Mac anyway.
Some of the things you're saying are true, but I think you need to make an effort to put yourself in the mindset of the other side. I live in Tel Aviv, I am sympathetic to the way you feel and know many fellow Israelis who feel the same way. But it's not an absolute, universal truth that the Palestinians are the aggressor. Just as convinced as you are that they are evil, bloodthirsty people hellbent on killing you, many of them are convinced the exact opposite - that you are all of those things toward them.

I say this to everyone reading: if you can't understand your enemy, if you cannot fathom why they act the way they do, if you cannot get into their heads and hearts and empathize with them, you ought to wonder if you simply lack imagination or are living in a bubble.
I love seeing all the proper integration with gnome/kernel/etc. Props to the 1password team.
+1 to this.

The poster can think of it this way: what if you there was a marketing person that was really good at it and then decided to start coding to make a product. Sure that might work for a prototype, but for anything more than some simple wireframes you would tell them to find a real programmer.

Now imagine the reverse where you are the coder that just needs to learn (overnight!) how to sell. Just as the original marketer devalues programming you are doing the same with selling.
Infinitic and Cadence / Temporal share similar vision / objectives, but we have quite different infrastructure and architecture.

Our use of Apache Pulsar gives us an efficient foundation that is proven, scalable, and is evolving rapidly thanks to the wider community to which we belong. We have been able to inherit features such as geo-replication, horizontal scaling, transactions, tiered storage, tooling, connectors with other technologies, etc.

One of the main benefits of using Pulsar is that we can achieve high-performance, low-latency throughput with small cost infrastructure.
Using Infinitic provides similar benefits than Cadence / Temporal without needing its adhoc/additional infrastructure.
> You can also store "waste" renewable energy in EV batteries

Yes you can, but the time when solar energy is the most abundant is in the the middle of the day, typically when people are away from home and not charging their cars.

Hydrogen can be stored for years in huge tanks so it is really "on demand". Unlike batteries, tank benefit from the square cube law and therefore makes large scale storage cheaper.

And BTW, personally, I am not convinced by hydrogen cars, but it doesn't look completely stupid either.
Sure, but a browser extension cannot handle anything outside the browser. Which for many is fine, but there are still plenty of individuals who need that outside the of the browser.

That is pretty different- expanse had an existing crew, cast and story arc to utilize. They could allow them to just keep doing their thing.
The Mac Pro Mx CPUs illustrate the promise of ARM and Apple Silicon. When the Firestorm core is one of the fastest available but uses less than 5 watts, Apple can use a ton of them at once without massive heat and power usage.

The top end Mac Pro with 32 Firestorm on one chip is probably will have a GeekBench Multicore score approaching 60,000, triple the fastest Xeon based Mac Pro.

And it probably uses half the 300 watts of the existing Mac Pro, with correspondingly less heat. Hopefully Apple doesn’t use this as sn opportunity to go back to the whacky packaging of the Trash Can Mac Pro.
I'm confused by the extent to which you believe the things that Erlang/OTP and the BEAM do have been entirely replicated by other ecosystems. I think you're quite right that distributed systems engineering and threaded programming as a whole has moved in the direction of Erlang on a lot of fronts, but I don't really see the parallels (no pun intended) at the language level. Most popular languages still depend on cooperatively scheduled threading models (even async/await depends on the dev inserting yield points), while the BEAM's does not.

You have to find some people willing to sell you that much ETH. Market depth around the current price is obviously not that deep and it would at least cost way more if you could even find that much for sale anywhere.
It is sad, running Firefox as a browser, Slack, Teams and 1password as 3 more browsers... Oh I forgot Postman! What are other "apps" common among developers built on the Electron?

This is a spicy take, not least because the cheapest source of energy in the developing world (i.e. the one without environmental regulations) tends to be coal.
This is something I don't understand. You lock the funds on a chain and you lose them on the chain. But what happens if two groups decide to split the chain, and both chains lock the opposing chains funds? It seems like there's no way to prevent social forks in the longer term, just a lot of hand-waving about that if the current social contract stays in place, some minority malicious group will be punished for secession.

It would seem that if some participants on the network can't abide by their national laws while running some contracts, the outcome would be inevitable. And then you would just get multiple chains running under multiple governments. This seems like a reinvention of the international banking system?
Battlestar galactica
Oh, I hadn't heard the news about Canonical, that's neat! Last I checked desktop support for Flutter was unstable and I got the impression from the docs that mobile is the main priority. Maybe it's worth another look.
This is what I would have expected - I suggested when the M1 was first mentioned that it might make more sense for the Mac Pro to just have a side wall of separate independent SOC stacks with independent on-thread memory that GCD could manage behind the scenes. This seems like a much more straight-forward way to throw more performance into the higher-end machines without making long-tail disruptions to the architecture.

The efficiency cores are essentially for when the system is idling or for the 95% case (browsing the web, watching YouTube and checking e-mails). If a task is performance-bottlenecked then it makes sense to go straight to maximum performance rather than any in-between combination as you're essentially either waiting for the computer or not (i.e. it probably doesn't make much sense to try to strike an efficiency balance for tasks that are stressing a minimal set of low-power cores when they need to be completed either way - and in a machine where there's no battery life to worry about).
I'm assuming they're 2004 version of Battlestar Galactica.

Most analysis I’ve seen says it shouldn’t be a problem. The concern came out of people misinterpreting read/write stats.
It's not that different. But the end goal isn't a revolutionary overhaul, but progress in a different direction.

The delusion that crypto is or can be the best thing humanity has ever created has to come to an end.

Let crypto just be another moderately useful system in society and let the speculation game die out.
I wonder how this will impact mining? Will GPUs suddenly flood the market as it becomes much less profitable to mine? God I hope so the GPU shortages have been crazy.
so the solution to overwork is more work?
Not yet, but that future is nigh. And if you’re discussing workhorse computers, I’d at least want that capability for when the time comes.
In practice, different people have utility in the network

In most double spent networks, people clamor for the coins so they can have the chance at double spending

In PoW networks that’s combined with renting/deploying hash power

In PoS networks its just taking over validators

Big ole party!
Virtually every item on the list is categorized as a "tax abatement", "tax deferral", or "tax exemption". I think it's misleading to call those 'subsidies'.

As always, the existence of such taxes gives politicians a tool to amplify their corruption and incompetence. The right answer is to take such tools out of politician's hands by ending the taxes in the first place.

It feels good to tax a corporation, but it's much more practical, efficient, and transparent to keep taxes at the personal and consumer level.
Do you think consumers were better off back when cinemas and studios were one (MGM was Loew)? Was the United States vs Paramount of 1948 a mistake?
> a powerful and versatile package manager (https://pkgsrc.org/)

That's multi-platform as well.

If you want/need the same packages on Linux, macOS, other, then you can use the same code on all of those platforms. No needs to worry about using {Homebrew, Macports} on your Mac and {Deb, RPM} on your Linux infrastructure.
You’re right, my last line was itself provocative and unhelpful. Unfortunately I’m unable to edit now. But my point is that what also doesn’t belong on HN are (a) a blatantly editorialized clickbait title and (b) a comment section full of knee-jerk reactions seeming to take the title at face value.

But to your point, indeed the IDF are not going to be planning their air strikes via google maps. The violent actors on the Palestinian side are more likely to “benefit” from publicly available high-resolution satellite imagery of Israel than vice versa. However as others have noted below, US law (kyl-bingaman amendment) apparently requires blurring of high-res imagery of Israel, so Israel was going to be blurred no matter what.

Which ironically brings us back to the question, why is Gaza blurred as well? Google doesn’t have to do that.

My initial assumption is laziness backed by armchair altruism. It’s easier to just apply a blanket blur policy to the entire Israel-Palestine region to comply with aforementioned KB amendment given the dynamic nature of the borders. Given that blurring is, at least at face value, considered a good thing for security, I could see the people in the room thinking “it’s easier for us and it increases the security of the entire region. We get ahead of any possible claim that google maps is enabling attacks on Palestine while protecting Israel. Problem solved.”.. without thinking through the potential negative externalities.

But as you’ve raised, blurring Palestine doesn’t meaningfully prevent planned attacks on Palestine, except if they’re carried out by rogue Israeli actors without state resources. In my understanding those are not as common. So then it raises the legitimate question, “does the negative externality of ‘preventing the world from easily accessing satellite imagery of Palestine and thus understanding the extent of urban destruction’ outweigh the positive benefit to general Palestinian security”? From an objective perspective, possibly, but from Google’s perspective, not blurring would be a much more politically charged move requiring nuanced explanation, so they’re not going to risk it.

In the end it’s very “damned if you do, damned if you don’t,” much like every other aspect of the broader conflict.
A lot of this is just the description of an emotionally immature person.
Do you have any 2FA setup? My work uses Duo 2FA with 1Password and I had to kick my Duo account into bypass mode to log in. I opened a support ticket with 1Password and they said it is a known issue with Duo + 1Password.
No quality control process can reliably catch software errors. That's why it's generally better to prevent errors rather than catching and fixing.
Once the attack goal is achieved the Ethereum value will go to zero. It does not make sense to do this by buying coins, but potentially hackers could get control of such big amount of coins by hacking exchanges, thus bringing whole system to collapse. Similar scenario as in Mr. Robot.
That means losing out exclusivity on endless remakes, reboots and sequels. Since that's the majority of Hollywood money, I sincerely doubt it will change.
> PoW incentivices cheap energy in developing countries more than anything before. It is the fix for environmental problems.

That can only become true if and when governments decide to suddenly ban PoW, so that all that cheap energy services anything other than crypto. I don't think it works as an argument in favor of PoW, for the same reason "we're only spreading knowledge of chemistry and democratizing process engineering" doesn't work as an argument in favor of drug cartels.

Also, 'SR2Z is right - "cheap energy in developing countries" == coal.
Truly a first world problem for you.
Well iOS apps run on Arm Macs.

Even before that, there were Catalyst based apps.

So, yes.

> You know the whole reason I brought up the browser.

No I really don't.

> So your solution seems to be Unix tools on the desktop and cluttering your smartphone with 1000 apps.

Nice editing of the previous comment to have completely different content.

I gave you two different suggestions: unix tools, that will work anywhere you can get a POSIX shell; or an example of what the built-in GUI tools can do on one platform.
Even reputable cryptocurrency exchanges are being targeted by the hackers. We should really take note on how we can safely hide our private keys in order for our crypto assets to be safe. We should be vigilant against viruses and phishing websites.
Documentary is about concussions, I saw it years ago. Has nothing to do with the player's preference for chiropractic.

Player likes chiropractic because he believes it makes him perform more optimally, you inserted/made up this concept of the NFL pushing chiro to save money "at the player's expense".

Pro-athletes preferring chiro is a strong counter-signal these "skeptic" articles.
I am aware that Nada could have 400 apm in a 30 minute game, but most of it was spam.

Those Brood War bots had 36 thousand actions per minute and mainly due to technical limitations (the game couldnt accept more). And those were "perfect" clicks - not spam.

Limiting a bot to 200 actions (or even less) makes it more comparable to human, since at some point every click becomes a resource too. Even best players have to stop macro for some (relatively short) time. While AI with 36 000 clicks per minutr is not limited by time.

There is no 'native' GUI in Linux. Skia rendering you UI is not any less native than GTK's or Qt's rendering engine doing so.
True, I've been conflating the two in all of my posts. As far as how they were used when I was growing up, the distinction tended to be moot because they were most commonly used ironically or jokingly.

This wasn't even Twitter drama. He wrote that in a published book, that then went on and on and on demeaning women in all sorts of "fun" ways (i.e. this isn't a single throwaway statement that might be misunderstood; the misogyny is core to what he was saying). His girlfriend is "special" of course, but he still manages to say very not-nice things about her.

Certainly we're moving towards a more fragmented landscape although it's also the case that Netflix (for example) will only pay so much for the rights to stream content at any given time.

I daresay many of the same people who complained about the cable bundle are now complaining about having to manage a bunch of different streaming services, a la carte streaming, and yes torrents. Although, to be honest, it's cheaper overall if you can do without live TV (or can get over the air).
Consensus may take time, but when you're pouring gas onto a fire, arguing that you need to dump out most of the can before you can be sure you know what you're doing isn't a defensible position.
The Intel MacBook was introduced in 2006 and SnowLeopard discontinued PowerPC in 2009. So 3 years seems to be about what you can expect before there's no OS, and another 2-3 years after that the patches stop.

One of the most important parts of being a founder is recognizing when you are out of your element, and then finding someone else to help you round out that problematic area. For you this might be sales/marketing. You definitely should find someone to help you here.

On a side note, as a fellow climber, I think you're probably going to fail. Chalk is cheap relative to your product and your product doesn't offer any clear advantage aside from leaving less residue (which lets be honest most climbing areas already have a ton of chalk on them). Maybe a small minority of climbers care that much to use something that leaves less residue, but those people already probably brush the holds on the way down anyways.
