Are the batteries actually worthy in these? When I got my macbook (intel) Apple claimed 10 hours. Reviews claimed 10 hours. I get 5 hours with the mail app open and an ssh connection to our server. Even took it to the apple store and they said the battery is fine. If a zoom meeting is over an hour I need a charger.
I'm not really sure what the difference is between a declaration of war and an authorization of war, but we've had congressional authorization for a couple conflicts since then. I would argue that if Congress voted on it in the affirmative, it's not really a secret or stealthy war.

If you mean that the price of the bitcoin is thus limited by a ceiling, hopefully not far from the current value, and if you are right, I would be reassured, for sure.

I've been stumbling through writing a pile of secure software development lifecycle management and disclosure practices documentation all evening, and desperately needed a bit of levity. This post delivered. Thank you.

Why is it wrong? Well for one thing, it skates too close to implying direct causation between skin colour and a propensity to engage in violence, when there's a far more obvious line of indirect causation: skin colour –> poverty –> propensity to engage in violence.

The link between skin colour and poverty is undeniable—it's right there in the aftermath of slavery and Government-sanctioned racism in the decades hence. The link between poverty and a propensity to engage in violence is also clear.

So if poverty is the critical link, if poverty is the underlying cause, why would it ever be useful to talk about levels of violent crime associated with a tangential correlate?

New macs are fine. I have an air which is 20% less bright as a pro, and its fine in sunlight. A pro would be even better.

Battery life is probably suffering though, its better to find shade. The screen is plenty visible at half brightness in shade.

I think you're being unrealistically optimistic, despite your extremely dystopian last sentence. People will continue to create suffering through ignorance, delusion, greed, and hatred even in the face of abundant energy—OPEC was founded in 01960, at which point the previous 50 years included the Holocaust, the Holodomor, the Great Leap Forward and the greatest famine in history, the Rape of Nanking, the worldwide rise of Fascism, two World Wars, the Bengal Famine of 01943, de-kulakization, the establishment of GULAG, the Great Depression, the first nuclear war, the destruction of Königsberg, the 01918 flu pandemic, the First Indochina War, the Chinese civil war, the Armenian genocide, the last 18 years of the American Indian boarding schools, the death marches of the Palestinians, the Partition of India, and some other incidents.

Energy became immensely cheaper after Watt, and all of the above events happened in the world thus created. Making energy cheaper still won't solve most of the world's major problems impacting most of the world population.
I had to use that one for this demo for obvious reasons, but if I'm allowed the shameless plug, I actually make my own music in the same genre (Touhou rearrangements) [0]. I'm actually very much looking forward to moving my music production to M1 and seeing what the real-time performance is like, though that will depend on us having at least a usable Rosetta-like thing on Linux to run x86 Windows apps (which will allow me to bridge the few x86 Windows plug-ins I rely on with yabridge, as I do today on x86) :-)

I’ve had the unfortunate reality of knowing quite a few people around my age that either killed themselves or tried when I was a kid and teen. My school was known for the number of suicides it had and I knew almost all of them.
For one it was a cry for help. For the others? They were trapped. Trapped to go to a school where they were bullied every day, for instance. I didn’t know it at the time but I was one of the few people that was at all friendly with him - he was just the guy I talked about Animorphs books with on the bus. There was only one escape that he knew of, and he took it at the age of 11.

If you’re a parent and you think your kid might be suicidal, give them an out. Let them skip school occasionally, or go to one of those online schools. Let them know that they can do what they want with their life and they don’t need to live up to your expectations. Whatever they’re feeling trapped by, find an exit with them.

It does? I'm not finding any citations that support that. The largest figure I'm seeing is ~ 10%

Well if we'd embraced solar + wind + storage systems in the 80's or earlier, we'd be 100% solar / wind by now. Academic counter-factuals are often equal parts fascinating and depressing.
Right; he of course knew that. It's just the closest he could get to it that he could think of. I'm not saying it's a democracy; just that he thought it's the closest he could get to it while retaining the properties of decentralization, permissionless, and anonymity.

How would you theoretically create a decentralized, permissionless, pseudonymous/anonymous currency that's more democratic? (I'd argue PoS is more democratic, for example, so you could also think of one that's more democratic than PoS cryptocurrencies. Of course, PoS is still very oligarchical, but it's about relativity.)

Firstly, thank you for your service!

Secondly, I think you definitely hit the nail on the head when it comes to the ROE being the main limiting factor in the "effectiveness" of the US military in being able to subdue its enemies, not just in Afghanistan/Iraq, but also in Vietnam and even to some extant in Korea. It seems to be one of the weird side-effects that nukes have on armed conflicts that when you have nukes, you really can never actually "fully commit" to a conflict. (Since going "all-in" could be apocalyptic.)

One thing I have always wondered, though, is the relationship between the ROE and irregular warfare. If the military personnel on the ground had broader discretion over their actions, would help or hinder the goal of "winning hearts and minds"?

1 video, with 1100 views is in no way indicative of a "hip hop trope".

I used to love HN, now I can see that there are a large number of intellectual cowards here. On a site full of engineers that understand statistics, a video with 1100 views being seen as a trope within the context of hip hop is patently absurd.

I literally cannot find a single wu-tang video with less than millions of views, but one no-name rapper with 1100 views is a "trope". Yet that comment will receive 0 downvotes because it's a victim narrative that HN wants to believe. That is dangerous and intellectually disingenuous. I was ashamed of the "Michael Brown - Hands Up Don't Shoot" narrative because it was simply untrue, but it was a narrative adopted by the AA community because it supposed a popular and often valid position. I always expected better on HN, it truly saddens me to see this here.
But all risk perception is context dependent, isn't it? If you're in a bad neighborhood, your threat awareness should be a lot higher than in an air conditioned, well-guarded office building, for example. I don't think it's entirely unreasonable that demographics may play a part in that threat awareness/perception of risk. That's not to say we shouldn't try to dispense with prejudice where possible.

You might be waiting for a long time. While solar panels are rated for 20-30 years, there is some evidence that they can last much longer. And considering the vast majority of panels in existence today have been manufactured in the last 5 years, it will be quite a while before recycling panels is a major concern.

I work in a team where the average age is around 40. Everyone has 15-20 years experience in the field we're working on.

This is the greatest job I've ever had =) Everyone just knows their shit, no one has a need to pad their resume by using the latest tech. We do stuff the boring way, the way that works every time. Stuff is done well the first time, because no one wants to spend their free time fixing broken production code.

No one glorifies long working days or not taking vacations. People have families and other responsibilities and we take that into account.

I did spend the previous 10 years coaching fresh out of school coders, but it's fun not to be the most experienced one in the room for a change.

>And hip-hop is a subculture of pop culture that is dominated by and mostly caters to young black people.

It's not, and thats why I am pressing this point. Billboards top 5 artists of last year were all hip hop[1]. Saying hip hop only caters to black people is like saying Soccer caters to the british. There is no way such a tiny demographic could drive international recognition for the medium.

Next the results you provided don't show any sort of trend. The only relevant results link to the same subreddit which calls out a single racist rapper who made a racist tweet in 2013. The rapper Drakeo is hardly relevant (he has less than 100k followers on Twitter). I don't know how a barely known rapper tweeting out a racist remark, since 2013, constitutes a trend in the largest music genre in America right now.

I'm pushing back because I want to know how these narratives are being created. I don't think it was your intention to inflate the nature of the trend, but I'm wondering why these memes are starting to grow all the sudden.

Tech industry is ageist. There's a reason why senior+ programmers find it hard to recover their career when detached from the BigTech company they have been long working at. Doubly so, if they work at a company that stack-ranks them at the bottom when they already are on the wrong-side of the 30.
No, it's not acceptable to stereotype all men and it never has been.
There are a few things I would like to see added as I have found them very useful in day to day work with Clojure(Script).

cond-> and cond->> which takes an expression and then threads it through test/form pairs without short circuiting by stopping on the first test that returns true. I have used this a lot when conditionally adding to maps. Something like this:

(let [base-map {:id "123"}
name (function-that-could-return-nil)
address (another-function-that-could-return-nil)]
(cond-> base-map
(some? name) (assoc :name name)
(some? address) (assoc :address address)))

If name and address are nil then I will still have the base-map.

I also use some-> and some->> a lot as well. some-> and some->> operate similar to -> and ->> respectively but the difference is that there is a nil check before subsequent form. It will prevent nil results to keep being passed and can help alleviate NullPointerExceptions.

As for maps, I recommend adding assoc-in, dissoc, update and update-in. assoc-in allows adding nesting to a map. I could do (assoc-in {} [:base :value] "test") which would result in a map that looks like {:base {:value "test"}}. dissoc removes a key from a map. update allows you to "update" a map by passing a key and function where the function has an argument that is the old argument. An example of that is (update {:name "James" :age 26} :age inc) which will increase the value of :age by 1. update-in allows you to do the same as update but in a nested structure

Mid forties and still evidently more employable than I was last year. I also find as I age it keeps getting easier to land work ever closer to what I really want. I’ve worked with dozens of ICs in their 40’s, many in their 50’s, several in their 60’s. Only one over 70 that I recall.

What's really amazing is that we could have done nothing, and it still would have failed eventually. There aren't any communist regimes that have been truly successful. The Soviets succeeded in industrialization, but then ate itself from within. The Chinese succeeded in industrialization, but only after transitioning away from maoist communism and more towards state capitalism. Everything else basically failed outright.
