Well, that could be true of the Maldives[1] (which would be tragic, don't get me wrong) but clearly even flooding lots of major coastal cities wouldn't wipe most countries off the map - but it'd still be huge problem.

I have seen ads for investment trusts in the UK in railway stations, Janus Henderson in this case. That was a for an investment house not and individual security.

I have had several of their trusts in my portfolio for decades now.
Do I need to point out that none of those are peer-reviewed?

It simply cannot be done under capitalism.
If you have a bunch of ice sitting on land that's at -1C and then you increase temperatures by 1.5C, then that ice will become water in the ocean.

Incidentally, that hypothetical scenario lines up pretty well with the past 70 years. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retreat_of_glaciers_since_1850...
Beads is a tracked mutable state language. It used the State-Action-Model pattern (see sam.js.org), and is built from the start to support time travel debugging. Unlike `rr` and its sequel `pernosco`, it is not an instruction level reversibility, but a state change stepwise reversibility, which is efficient enough to stick around and be used in production use (not just in the lab).

There is a "blackbox_write' and 'blackbox_send" feature, which allows you to send session information sufficient to replay the user's session for debugging purposes.

This is a very powerful feature, and one that we are seeing more and more efforts to offer, because in a world with so many computers, being able to reproduce rarely occurring, data-dependent bugs, is very important.
Containers in the Keep
That's not entirely a joke. "Halogen-free polyamides are explicitly recommended by the USB-IF in the USB 3.1 specification."[1] Most common plastics do not have a high enough resistance to surface tracking, where, as the connector wears, a conductive path appears across the surface due to dirt and moisture.

See https://ourworldindata.org/co2-emissions. Obviously difficult to determine short/medium-term trends based on the Covid lockdowns.
Over what sort of time frame do these mass extinctions occur?
Thanks, changing my OS to light mode made the diagrams readable.
So, not a single primary source from a peer reviewed journal?

The "New Ice Age" thing you cite for example is well known to have never been a majority opinion among scientists. At no point were more papers predicting cooling published than papers predicting warming.

Ozone depletion, on the other hand, was a serious peril, until international coordinated action banned the chemicals responsible for it, and the crisis was averted. Similarly, acid rain was a serious problem, until we enacted regulations that almost completely eliminated sulfur dioxide emissions.
To me, being "enterprise" means shipping/supporting running enterprise functions on the OS. So things like network information services, databases, perhaps giving options of filesystems that can handle extremely large sizes, cluster support, added support from the vendor, etc.

Stuff that a typical desktop user probably won't run or use. Maybe they can if they really wanted to, but not the common use case.

>Is Windows not "enterprise"?

Funny you ask when Microsoft literally sells a version of Windows called "Windows Enterprise". https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windowsforbusiness/compare

Find the differences between Windows 10 Home and Windows 10 Enterprise and that may help you understand what makes Rocky Linux also enterprise.
Good to see this. Quickest way to build admin apps!
Do they assist in cutting the umbilical cord and delivering the placenta before leaving the parents and baby alone?
How much has sea level risen in the last 70 years?
If People Get Jabbed After Watching This They Are Beyond Saving
Ahh. Another coincidence. It's 18 years today since the first wordpres release was made by Matt Mullenweg and Mike Little.
What tool are they using to generate those "hand drawn" illustrations? i like them.
maybe if it helps to fail fast and only public functions
That sounds extremely useful, indeed. What are the caveats/corner cases? I assume it does a lot of debasing behind the scenes, what happens in case if conflicts?
Good for RF sims. It's free compared to ADS which is NOT.

You can use LTSPICE for some kinds of e.g. transmission line models but it doesn't have things like the Smith chart built in.

You also can use Qucs for modeling things you'd normally use SPICE for but the library isn't there, so it's not worth the trouble.

Basically, two different tools for completely different sets of problems.
FWIW, when that happens just blow at it slightly.
Reversing Climate Change with Forests Created with Solar Desalination Plants
I thought IR was just the internal processing format used by a compiler, eg: MIR or LLVM IR, and so is at a level usually “higher” on the abstraction stack than assembly/bytecode, which can be seen as the primary outputs of a compiler

Really nice work. However, I would really love to have a no animation option. Just show me the route from the continental view. I pretty much have to reload to get it back to the starting point reliably. Fun to click into the animation, but not every time. Thanks for putting this up!
> monolithic chip

Now I know how to market it! "You're not doing real microservices unless you do it on the gate level!"

But it's cool that you have a working VAX. I've been wanting some kind of minicomputer for a long time, but if I could find a complete one I probably couldn't justify the cost.
Even if we eliminate coal, there's still too many people and too much consumption.
Part of the problem is informational. Payors, which may include those backed by nonprofit (like BCBS) and government (CMS), are tasked with reducing un-necessary and duplicative services. This is a critical duty in bending the high cost of healthcare.

Payors identify specific procedures or treatments which represent things they want more information about before they commit to paying for it. It is difficult work on the healthcare provider side to understand what requires pre-auth and provide the payor's decisional information. There is a HL7 group that is working on the problem, the DaVinci Project:

Interoperability challenges have limited many stakeholders in the healthcare community from achieving better care at lower cost. The dual challenges of data standardization and easy information access are compromising the ability of both payers and providers to create efficient care delivery solutions and effective care management models. The goal of the Da Vinci project is to help payers and providers to positively impact clinical, quality, cost and care management outcomes.

Dominos India Breach and More
Dominos Breach was huge with 180 million order details, and if you’re not aware of it, you must be.
The slippery slope there is once you apply a duck-typing test in a legal context, a corier or a third-party becomes a telecommunications service.

I'm sorry, I don't buy that the government should be recognized as having an absolute right to interpose itself in the middle of any two party conversation. Not even by warrant.

Justice systems are not, nor should be all-powerful, and that's the direction I see pop up more and more often to the point I'm becoming seriously concerned that rhetoric is sliding in a direction where liberty and freedom is sacrificed on the altar 9f public safety.

There is no point being free in a world where you are constantly micromanaged in the interests of maintaining the stability of the state and public, especially when those driving that edifice almost inevitably end up not aligning with the public they putatively serve, and consider anything less than half of the population an acceptable sacrifice to the whims of a slim majority.
The existing infrastructure doesn't grow higher, and the increased climate variability means much more floods.
Yes, let's stick to the science. Which says we have problems, yes, but the narrative so many on here are parroting (all is lost, the gun has already gone off, the world will be uninhabitable) is not remotely close to the predictions even the IPCC has reached.

A reminder that predictions of the end of the world are, so far, never true, is welcome.
I've been seeing articles about how Russia stands to gain
What falls through the cracks?
If they were clever, they would have chosen a number they're pretty sure we'll hit as a watershed number.

That way the year we hit it, everybody panics and circles the wagons, to avoid hitting the real, higher number which is actually our doom.
The doom didn't stop being impending. As an individual all you can do is doing your part in recycling and saving energy, and gaining citizenship and/or permanent residency in a country that is able to produce enough food for its own population by multiples, and spans enough climate zones to be stable in any scenario (hotter, colder, more dry, or more wet).

Because as with the current vaccine shortage, there's no international cooperation when the countries producing it don't have enough. Food shortages will be similar.

Your choices are probably Brazil, USA, or Russia.
They were, but 3,5" drives are large hunks of aluminium with many times the surface. Meaning that as long as you have some airflow around them and the air is not too hot they are fine.

Also the heat was mostly generated by motor and an actuator and not the controller.
This is kind of a cool project, and I have no doubt it is a good language for the type of programming the author surely does.

However, the design of the language feels like it's a imperative language with a few a few additional features (declarative solver) bolted on to facilitate sub-problems within its use case: well within the paradigm, but lacking real coherent design, or an innovation that would merit non-trivial adoption.

That said, I would be interested at pursuing the source code: it's an interesting hobby language.
I use Android and I pay for software

That said, I mistook your comment as disdaining Android users - not saying that they were a market you were not interested in, which is more reasonable and I should've understood that initially.
correct me if I'm wrong this seems like what Gerrit does?
Do you have an NVMe M.2 device specifically? The M.2 form factor supports both NVMe and SATA (though any given device or slot might not support one or the other).

I've got a workstation that has both SATA 3 and M.2 NVMe SSDs installed.

The SATA 3 device can do sustained reads of about 550 MB/sec, fairly close to the 600 MB/sec line rate of SATA 3.

The NVMe device can do about 1.3 GB/sec, faster than physically possible for SATA 3.
I had them and I think I was ok with them on my 13" laptop screen, but definitely not when I used a larger external monitor. I was constantly having to turn my head to get text into focus which was frustrating and distracting.

I've heard that there's a large variety of progressive lens types and I suppose that might explain why some people are ok with them and others aren't, though I'm not going to try again for a computer distance prescription.

I now have single prescription lenses for working at my computer and bifocals for everything else, though I'd consider replacing my bifocals with progressives at some point.

I got my single prescription lenses at Warby Parker for $100 and I'm really happy with them.
There are some strange things in the graphs.
Sometimes the selects are faster with a higher number of rows.
I would guess that is because the database keeps the entire fairly small table in memory.
Also, it seems that the article only uses data from a single execution.
From the outside looking in, it looks like Apple are so ashamed of their own 30% price-gouging that they won't allow you to include it. It makes no sense whatsoever to dictate Epic's pricing, and this seems like an obviously dangerous hill for Apple to choose to die on.
This looks more featured than Seatable I was looking into.
A few questions on features and plans:

1. Are all the views mobile friendly,

2. Any plan for a map view,

3. Multiple views in a page? (aka dashboard)

4. How does AGPL affect getting payed to create a solution based on this? I'm not talking about offering it as a service as is as happens with elastic, redis and the cloud providers.

5. How do we create plugins?
I'm more concerned about predicable rain patterns than warmer weather. What happens if rainfall in America's breadbasket starts to decline? Even a small sustained change could have deep ramifications.
Well, I used it for a class, and it was fine for class purposes.

I did notice significant differences in modeled circuit performance between versions of Qucs Studio, for even very simple models. Instead of trying to get to the bottom of that problem, I just used the same version as the instructor and called it "good enough."

But "good enough" for a class is definitely not "good enough" for the workplace. Either I was doing something stupid (quite likely) or you should stick with ADS.
I talked about this with my optometrist and optician and they recommended I get a pair of reading glasses and a pair of distance glasses.

Any kind of bifocal is a compromise and might be convenient for some people, but if you are trying to maximize your sensory acuity they aren't a good choice.
Besides the existing comments, I would add Modula-2 to the mix, given how some modern languages are just redoing it with C like syntax.
Not true. Very hard to open a bank account only if you aren’t willing to spend approx $3k to facilitate everything.

It’s also easy to start an “onshore” company now

Rocky aim for “bug for bug” compatibility with RHEL.

Red Hat target RHEL to a conservative, enterprise audience who look for a long lived well supported operating system, Rocky (and CentOS before it) court the same audience.

The primary difference being that RHEL is a premium product differentiated by the Red Hat support, training and documentation offering.

Support in so far as Red Hat will work with you to troubleshoot your OS issues, and issue custom patches to the packages they supply that you’re encountering issues with etc etc.

Training in that Red Hat offer many training courses and certifications in the usage and deployment of their many software packages and collections (System Administration, Troubleshooting & Diagnosis, High Availability Cluster administration etc etc)

If you look at Microsoft’s offering for Windows server you’ll see many parallels in the offerings that Red Hat present.
HN readers are smart and scientific. Please don't suggest we're somehow vulnerable to the same "doomsday cult" religious tendencies as other humans. In the words of Greta: How dare you! Now buy some carbon credits to atone for your deeds, Denier.
This reminds me -

A couple of years back, I was making https://lifeboxhq.com which involved users uploading quite a bit of content. I was happily testing security with some url resource enumeration and for some reason, I could non-deterministically access user uploads via url, even on accounts I didn't own. I spent several days looking at my Flask code, javascript, etc. to debug....

I knew it wasn't my code, but I was getting more and more frustrated, then I remembered I set up Cloudflare....

Remember to exclude certain routes from Cloudflare if you want to avoid arbitrary user content from being cached without authentication.
It really does. It can't be as fast as other chorded input methods are (steno for example), but it's probably much easier to learn.
Uber's price directly correlates with the amount of business it does. It has doesn't have a monopoly on transportation and if the union pump up the prices then there will be less jobs. It's not like other union shops where they can more or less force a monopoly.

Uber was never suppose to be a full time job and by unionizing/legitimizing it, it's going to decrease ridership.
I looked at doing my PhD. I was really interested in startup failure and wanted to research that.

The system I was presented with would have meant my supervisors got more say in what I spent my time on than I did. They heavily skewed to supporting existing psychological models of entrepreneurial failure which I wasn't interested in.

The bureaucracy, authoritarianism and endless hoop-jumping around it was a total red flag for me. I opted out.

My conclusions:

PhD grads aren't smarter than others. They're just more willing to put up with bullshit, conform to meaningless rules, and jump through hoops.

Academic research is rarely about the things it says that it's about, and seems to be more about maintaining/improving the career prospects of the academics.

Academic research is heavily affected by political spats with other academics that have nothing to do with the actual subject, but more to do with ego, pride and interpersonal dislike.
Question: How do you folks deal with the hopelessness of it all?

It's pretty obvious that emissions are not going to drop to zero, that the positive feedback loops due to arctic methane emissions have kicked off, and that runaway warming has begun. Best-case equilibrium now looks like 3C by 2100.

Basically, the situation is bleak and in all likelihood irreversible. There will me massive changes in my lifetime and the world we've left our children will be drastically different and obviously worse.
What do you want, us to stop using energy? That's not gonna happen, the best you can do is to have tried to limit carbon emissions decades ago, but it's far too late for anything like that. Fuck it, pedal to the metal.
Can someone explain how private emails are used in prosecutions? If it's a blackmail or intimidation then a victim can supply all the necessary evidence. If it's an illegal trade then there should be traces in the real world.

In what situations private emails of criminals are absolutely necessary? The only thing I can imagine is an exchange between two criminals of classified information for virtual currency.
The loop syntax may appear unfamiliar, but since the core data structure of Beads is not lists, tuples, arrays, but instead a tree, there are various options that are more familiar to Lisp programmers, such as depth-first, or breadth-first tree traversal, but expressed as a loop, so you can conveniently stop it.

Most of the time one will use a loop in a very simplistic manner. Because it is so tedious and common to need the count of the loop, the key value, or a pointer to the element being looped across, we give you implied declaration capability in the loop consruct.

It is a compact notation that has gone through many polishing steps, and is very ergonomic, easy to read, and downright handy. Loops are the bread and butter of computer software, and yes, there are a fair number of options (such as going in reverse).

Please take the language for a spin, you might like it.

Sorry are we suggesting that bitcoin is more than air travel?

A significant issue is that we can't electrify international air travel. The 2.5% remains relevant.

> we can't radically cut CO2 without abandoning all modern technology!

That's you projecting, I never said that and you're basically trying to reject my input by misrepresenting me as a dismissible hippy which is a disgraceful way to debate.
But all still bigly positive.

1. Start by understanding that this is a primarily social problem. Techniques like documentation or microservices are only that: techniques. The real goal is clear communication by any means necessary.

2. Make it easy to see from a document when it has gone out-of-date and whom to ask about it. If you expect a document to stay up-to-date, make sure someone has the capacity to pay attention to to and answer questions.

3. Less, but better. Actively encourage the process of pruning docs and putting them in history so that what remains stays trusted.

4. Start with Why. The most important thing to document is why things are. Why teams exist. Why projects exist.

5. Don’t assume that everyone has the context to write or maintain every document. If an individual is trying to create clarity on the organization’s top-level goals... then something deeper is broken.

6. Docs are best written as a pair-programming exercise between a novice and a senior.
Who is saying all is lost and that the world will be uninhabitable? People are saying bad things will happen, potentially catastrophic things for those directly affected. Some of these things may create large social challenges. What's wrong with acknowledging that? The fact that it makes you uncomfortable to hear doesn't mean it's not true.
sure but the op of that thread acted like we just renewable bitcoin and job done. WE WERE FUCKED BEFORE BITCOIN.
The "simplest" self-hosted tools are probably Prometheus (https://prometheus.io) and Jaeger (https://jaegertracing.io), but they're big distributed systems. Running them may or may not be worth the cost, though you might be using something like Prometheus already.

I really would love to see a simpler set of tools that works better for small / medium companies to self-host if they really can't send data to a vendor for some reason.
Maybe it's the same as how scam emails are intentionally obvious.[0] They want to filter out anyone smart enough to spot a scam before they waste time. In Luno's case, they might be trying to filter out anyone with any shred of investment knowledge.
