Perhaps a better maxim is: wind turbine blades should be recycled if and only if it is better for the environment to do so.

It is not clear why it would be better to recycle them. Breaking things down for recycling costs a lot of energy, sometimes more than obtaining new materials and making the thing from scratch.

For example, plastic recycling is a bad idea from an energy standpoint. As far as I understand, it was publicized by plastic companies so plastic sales would not risk being regulated (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24714880 and https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2019/aug/17/plastic-...).

Some things (like metals) should be recycled though.

I disagree. I like to learn about the history and motivations behind a technology. It gives me context and helps me to remember facts that would otherwise be hard to remember, besides being enjoyable.

> which really sucks for anyone who actually subscribes to the ideals originally espoused by free software proponents.

the ideals of free software is for software to be free (according to the four fundamental freedoms) and not to work on all and every hardware and to maintain software indefinitely. anything besides the four foundamental freedoms is BS.
We do not have any plan to do this, though there are some features we're looking at for improving existing terminal packages.

I personally wouldn't ever use a embedded terminal, as their user interaction inherently conflicts with the rest of the application. ctrl+w for instance needs to both close files/tabs as well as delete a word in the terminal.
I really love it, as it provides 1 layer of semantic abstraction over raw css, meaning, it's easier on the mind, very useful for frameworks like React / Angular / Blazor / Vue.

There is a learning curve, but if you assimilate the language, by doing a project or two, you won't have to even look at the documentation for doing your designs.
Its a well known problem for any type of infection and or vaccination in the area. They just wanted to write a sensationalist Covid story. It's annoying because there are significantly more relevant stories about ... well just about anything.

And since there are enough people just reading the headlines, its just fodder for anti vax conspiracies. You have to read the article to the very end to see that this is just very short term problem which is well known (by any competent radiologist/ob/gyn).
In sane countries the seller must comission a survey and provide it to the buyer. The UK system where each buyer comissions a survey is absurd.

I do not understand how the mortgage helps you - you are still paying for it, and if the survey uncovers issues, you either take mortgage on a house with problems, or you are out of pocket.

If you pull out, and next house you view has issues too, you have to take it because at some poijt you run out of money

Back in 2015, I ran a FreeBSD router on my Rasberry Pi 2B. Instead of relying on two ports, I divided a single port using VLANs, and connected my modem to a L2 managed switch. This configuration is colloquially known as "router on a stick." Performance wasn't amazing, but neither was my rual ISP, so I ran with it for a year. I eventually replaced it with a Beaglebone setup in the same configuration, but with OpenBSD, and an IPSec VPN. That setup remained until I moved out a couple years later. I have been wanting to try it again with a PoE-capable RPi - removing a dedicated power cable and only requiring a single cable would truly make it a "router on a stick."
The way to fix this is by enacting similar laws everywhere else, not to go for the lowest common denominator on workers rights (or "feel good laws" as you refer to them here.) Somebody has always got to be the first to outlaw slavery.

Show HN: Find the most competent app-designer,biologist, physicist in a country
Hey guys, I had the idea to make a website where one can simply find the most competent physicist, marketer, architect, politician, app-designer, dermatologist, soccer player etc. in your country.

I made this platform, because I was frustrated by how arduous and difficult it is to find competent people that are really good in their field. There is simply no way to find them quickly and efficiently. For example on Linkedin, there are 100,000 people for each profession, but which one is the best e.g. data-scientist, UX-designer in your country?

Of course, this list won't be a perfect reflection of who is the most competent, but the Top 10 by field would always be full of highly competent people.

So you could say it's a mix of Reddit and Wikipedia.

Everyone can submit new listings without an account, however, only those with a verified account can upvote or downvote.

I just finished the first version and added a couple of listings myself. There's not much on there yet of course, so it would be amazing if you could add some listings of people in specific fields that you think are very competent.

Thank you!

Yup. If you follow the links from that article, you'll get to the site of the person who found and documented them. It doesn't look like it took too much effort.

But it's not really about trying to prevent anyone from discovering that these opcodes exist. It's about trying to discourage their widespread use. If it's undocumented, then they don't have to support it, and anyone who's expecting support knows to steer clear. That gives them more freedom to change the behavior of this coprocessor in future iterations of the chip. And people can still get at them, because Apple uses them in system libraries such as the OS X implementation of BLAS.

I recall two things that people complained about with the Mac support

- the USB-C charging was terrible because if you turn off the monitor it stops charging the laptop. I believe the same happens when the monitor sleeps. There is also this weird connectivity issue that happens if the mac with USB-C goes to sleep and the monitor is in use with another port. It keeps detecting/undetecting the USB-C port. I think it basically comes down to a lack of consistent power connection from the monitor to USB-C port. I knew about this problem and I just make sure my mac has a power brick plugged in.

- the 2nd problem was that their isn't any Dell software for mac which means that all settings and switching is done through the buttons. Luckily, someone hacked this together.

https://github.com/kfix/ddcctl

Overall, the monitor is absolutely fantastic and I would buy it again. I spent at least 40 hours researching monitors and looking for a high resolution (4kish), 32" or larger, IPS monitor. Everything else was either super expensive, out of stock/no longer made or had major problems.
Why software updates, especially remote ones, are even necessary for the safety-critical bits of a car is a problem too. Entertainment systems and such might be "acceptable" to follow the current trends in declining software quality and "fix it later" mentality, but core functionality like engine controls, steering, and brakes should definitely not be developed that way.

The conspiracy theorists might say "so they can slowly degrade the performance, in the name of environmental protection"...

>> The market is not really free - its being manipulated by one side.

The market is free, it just isn't a healthy market. Those are different concepts. Participants in a totally free market are free to use their size/power/leverage as they wish. A free market is one where the little guy, the job applicant, will be hammered by the big guy. A 'healthy' market is one that is regulated in such a way that the little guy has at least a hope in the negotiation process. This then fosters competition, innovation, yielding a free-but-healthy market.
Regulation needed to do those things that the "free" market cannot.
I dunno, given that companies like Tesla are stepping back from accepting cryptocurrency due to environmental concerns, I'd say there's a body of people for whom this constitutes a problem.

Dude was hired as a senior exec. Part of the job description is being a public persona representing the company. And the majority of the public disagrees with him. What are we taught to do as engineers when we don't agree with the majority? Disagree and commit. What did he do? Throw a temper tantrum along the lines of "how come Dre gets to be sexist and I don't". Forget opinions, he screwed up a basic job requirement. It's OK, we all make mistakes, and his was big enough to get canned. Life goes on.
Congrats! When the payday hits I will buy it. I've been waiting. I know I could have purchased an ST3 license and got this but...I am weird.
How is this expected to work in the real world?

When I'm hiring, which I always am for software engineering roles, I am looking for talent at levels between college intern and multi-decade veteran.

I don't necessarily have a roster of specific positions I need to fill; I have an idea of what kind of skills and experience mix I would like to see over time, but there's always going to be turnover at every level.

Talent acquisition is multi-modal through campus programs, referrals, recruiters (both for targeted skill needs and passive candidates), and I guess probably some advertised positions.

I think the third option is that are just as frustrated about the rules as you, but what are they going to do about them? From their perspective, it’s easier to suck it up and be free to get on with their lives as opposed to rocking the boat and attracting the ire of the neighborhood Karen, who inevitably has unlimited rage, time, and energy.
Some folks would say that restricting such arrangements would be a good outcome.

For illegal arrangements, sure. You may think your government shouldn't inflict such restrictions, but empowering everyone to just ignore them is unlikely to lead to good outcomes.

I believe it to be a cultural thing. Sure, you don’t necessarily have the incentive to learn a language for work but the education system does not promote it either. I know a lot mainland European who speak languages other than English just out of interest for other cultures with no real use in their daily job.
I'm reminded of a short sci-fi story I read long ago about an anarchical society where everyone possessed a weapon capable of destroying entire swathes of country side in an instant. It was some form of unlimited energy device that was also used for other less offensive purposes, but everyone carried a sidearm that could emit a beam of energy capable of melting a mountainside into glass. The story focusses around an attempted coup and has an illustrative ending demonstrating the power of such a weapon to deter the use of force to coerce others.

On balance, CFLs were lower energy and safe enough for general use. They were much better than their contemporaries for the environment.

A heart attack locked him out of his Gmail account
My friend had a heart attack two weeks ago, and when he was recovering in the hospital he logged into his Gmail account from a laptop there and got a suspicious activity warning.

When he recovered and went home, he logged in again from a new phone that he had got a couple days prior to the heart attack; apparently that was the last straw and now he is permanently locked out.

This account was used for everything.

Crazy, huh?

If it's too far to ride then a taxi (ideally, an electric vehicle) is a reasonable option. It's even reasonable to stop where you are and switch to a taxi. I don't know if it's possible with Uber or similar, but with traditional taxi operators you can call them and arrange for them to carry the bicycle too. The front wheel will have a quick release mechanism, and you can put down some sheeting to protect the interior of the taxi from grease/oil, or they might have an exterior bicycle carrier frame. But this will only be a minority of journeys.

If I recall, the context was that he was dating a woman who was a bit of a tomboy and saying how cool it was that she was better at power tools and such than he was, and this comparison to typical SF tech women was part of that extended riff.

I expect them to make the case to the relevant people instead that it's a bad idea, and resist, so when the lawsuits get filed they can pat themselves on the back that they aren't part of it, because their cars weren't updateable over the air and thus aren't part of it.

Unfortunately, "the lawsuits get filed" is comfortably beyond the planning horizon of any entity out there right now, even though we're talking about lawsuits with the reasonable chance of driving the affected companies right out of business.
