I don't have access to the full paper, but my reading of the abstract is (in short) that satellite measurements of independent quantities have ratios that are only (sort of) reproduced by models that show a higher warming. This leaves two possibilities: the models are wrong or the measurements are off.

Yeah I once had to make a ~20k transfer with Klarna and was shocked to see that they essentially hijacked my credentials. I only went through with it because there is additional 2FA (on my bank) so they wouldn't have been able to repeat it. But still a super shady practice. I was sweating for days until I got a confirmation that the transfer went through successfully. 1/5 experience.

If you have a CSP that forbids inline scripts htmx will still work. If you disable eval a few features will not (e.g. trigger filter expressions).

You can set htmx.config.allowEval to false for compatibility with your CSP.

I criticised a previous comment of yours because of incorrect implication of "induced demand" as the situations are very different but I like this comment.

>Was it switched to 9 apartments because the place fell down market as it aged or was it retrofitted because there is very little market for a single family house like that in SLO?

Definitively, I would have to invite my extended family to fill the building.

>Also are we even sure those individual apartments are truly down market?

They definitively cost less than renting the entire building, which is what stickfigure's anti-apartment stance would mandate.

> It certainly doesn't look like a "slum" like you mentioned in your first comment.

Of course not, it can't look like a slum because the exterior hasn't changed. We are running into a problem here. The classification or living arrangement is apparently the deciding factor behind the "character of the neighborhood" and whether it is a slum. How can that be? Well, maybe it's not the building or the architecture or the zoning and so on, maybe it's the inhabitants that turn the place into a slum? You certainly can't see them from the outside.

We also run into another problem, if there are "evil" people that turn neighborhoods into slums by their mere presence then how do you distinguish between slum people and non slum people? It should be impossible in practice. Of course, there is a reliable(in the sense that it is self fulfilling) visual proxy for that.

Something similar happened to me when I remote-controlled a buddy's computer. This was I guess in the early 2000s when disc drives were still a thing. Opening the drive knocked over a glass of wine and caused quite a mess... Noone hurt, but also spilled wine.
As a slight tangent - if the greenhouse effect of CO2 is so catastrophic that we need to mandate the destruction of (Western) energy companies, as well as enormous lifestyle changes in the near future, then why aren't we as worried about methane? The US emitted 1/8th the amount of methane as CO2[1], but methane has 30x the greenhouse potential.

In Denmark, you're forced to use the state-run "NemID" for credit card payments, making for some weird situations where you authenticate with NemID inside iframes on shady URLs.

The same NemID is also used to file your taxes, look at all your health info, get married, everything basically.

Credit card payments are much lower security level, and they're basically forcing sharing credentials amongst all the sites you pay on.

Having worked with academics before, the biggest problem you will face is not having enough prestige to attract "great minds". You're probably off on the money too - academics will expect to be able to buy a comfortable house and support a family on your stipend, not live on ramen like a startup.

A thin article that throws a lot of stuff against the wall hoping that something will stick with people who are already against expanding human presence into space.

The meandering argument, as far as I can tell, boils down to: it's going to be cramped and dangerous, and if you're looking for a way to escape Earth, you're not going to find a more comfortable existence out there. These are all obvious, by the way, and should be understood by anyone who is willing to risk their lives for a shot of establishing a permanent human outpost on another planet.

I would choose to be a colonist in a heartbeat, if the opportunity ever arises. I know full well I'll probably die there or even on the way. Life there is going to be hard work, and the environment will frankly never be as pretty as Earth. I would go fully knowing that I can deal with both isolation and cooperation in groups. That I can deal with sparse resources and the need to improvise daily.

> "This is the paradox of spacefaring: It’s a lose-lose proposition."

The assumption behind this article is that people considering doing this don't know any better, that they are somehow deluded about how arduous and bleak it will be. The conclusion that space colonization would be a lose-lose proposition is especially infuriating. For the same reason that humans live in more than one city here on Earth, we should go out there. Not to escape Earth, but to develop further.
Also:

- Does it destructively modify the argument, or return a substring? Or both?

- If it returns a substring, is it a view over the original string, or a fresh substring that doesn't share memory with the original?

- If it returns a fresh substring, how does it do it? Is it smart or dumb about allocations? This almost never matters, except when it does.

- How does it handle multibyte characters? Do locales impact it in any way?

With the languages we have today, a big part of the function contract cannot be explicitly expressed in function signatures. And it only gets worse with more complicated tools of abstraction.

I was specifically trying to be neutral to make a point about the choice of language used in the person I was responding to, yes.

I'm not advocating the thought, I just find it curious how polarised and absolutist such discussions get (as, very quickly, in the responses here) when the shoe is on one foot, versus - say, the shoes worn by tribes and cultures we in the West deem worthy of paternalist protection.

Hey :)

As part of a larger project that I'm working on, I've created a playground where you can explore some newer (and older) parts of JS, e.g. the ?? and ?. operators, and see how existing code could be changed to use them.

Would love to hear feedback, in particular since this idea is pretty early :)

Klarna is a weird company. Last I interacted with them it was clear that they are completely designed to operate within Sweden, but have no idea of how to deal with the outside world. Maybe that have changed.

I talked to Klarna maybe 10 years ago. One of the things I wanted to know was how they dealt with abuse in Sweden, given you just need the social security number of a person and then you can do purchase as that person, and Swedish SSNs are not secret.

The friendly Klarna rep. had no idea what I meant, as you could only get stuff delivered to the address associated with the SSN. Based on how that would be abused in Denmark we suggested ordering a box of random sex toys to any random person in Sweden. The only answer I got was "Why would anyone do that?"

It took less than six month for Klarna to start asking us to block addresses, because they had no way to prevent abuse.
That's not what I was concerned about. The subspace that's uncontrollable is the disturbance components of the state, which I don't care to control anyway.

Very interesting stuff..Engel's probability abacus.
In Sweden most people have an electronic way to identify themselves to their bank (BankID) and it is used by many services to verify your identity.

It's extremely useful for any ID verification, but Klarna asks you to verify your identity towards them but when you open the app they have instead sent a request to identify with your bank, using your credentials.

While methane has a much larger effect it also leaves the atmosphere much faster rate.

Methane released to the atmosphere is gone in about 12 years while CO2 takes over 100 years.

So over the lifetime of the gasses methane will have a smaller effect as it just does not stay around for as long.

Also CO2 is mainly absorbed into the oceans acidifying them which is another huge issue we are facing now.
I think PSD2 is supposed to solve these problems with a less insane approach, but the rollout seems to be quit sluggish.

It was by choice. You weren't born with an account.

Not taking personal responsibility for the rise of the ubiquity of these terrible online services (WhatsApp users, I'm looking at you) is a huge part of the problem. Pretending that you didn't opt-in is a lie you've told yourself; you shouldn't propagate that lie to others in society.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invasion_of_Iceland

The invasion of Iceland (codenamed Operation Fork) by the Royal Navy and Royal Marines occurred on 10 May 1940, during World War II. The invasion took place because the British government feared that Iceland would be used by the Germans, who had recently overrun Denmark, which was in personal union with Iceland and which had previously been largely responsible for Iceland's foreign policy. The Government of Iceland issued a protest, charging that its neutrality had been "flagrantly violated" and "its independence infringed".[1]*
They will have to invest in carbon capture on Earth to build expertise for deployment on Mars.

Personally, I think they will not make Starship reliable enough for passenger flights.

The chances of airplane crash are somewhere around 1 in 10 millions per flight.

For comparison, the Crew Dragon requirement is no more than 1 in 127 chances of loosing a crew.

I would really, really not want to use Crew Dragon to do business flights. It's more kind of climb Mount Everest type of thrill.

With Klarna you just need to type some information most people know by heart (10 digit ID number, f.ex.) before the order is confirmed. This is convenient if one wants to buy something quickly from a mobile phone. The address will oftenalso be prefilled. A credit card number is much more cumbersome to type on a small device, and the address needs to be typed in separately.

Some banks used to require people to log into their banks to temporarily unlock their card for internet shopping, or, nowadays, one also needs to authenticate the purchase with the bank. That adds extra friction.

With Klarna one does not need to pay until 14 days after the goods are shipped. Credit cards are even better, but most people tend to just have a debit card. With Klarna they don't need to worry about spending too much money from the account and having some other payment bounce later on.

I personally stopped using them after I fell for one of their dark patterns and bought something on credit, which incurred an extra fee. Legally I was entitled to cancel the credit purchase, pay the full amount and avoid the fee; but I was still annoyed.
When people buy housing and leave it empty, they are buying the land, the house is a bonus. People never buy housing as an investment unless they use it to reduce the cost of living (pretty much never) or rent it out (happens a lot). Buying land works fine because of rent seeking.
This is an open-source demo app showcasing how to add qualified sign/seal and timestamps to documents according to the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EIDAS i.e. all EU trusts documents correctly sign with it. Timestamps are usually paid (few euro cents each) but there are services like http://tsa.sk.ee which you can use with a limit of free timestamps per month per IP address. Each and every court will trust any timestamped and signed document (you need to you your own qualified signature and a qualified timestamp from a qualified TSA of course)
First, kudos on thinking beyond advertising.

Depending on the Terms, analytics of your data might be valuable. What data do you have, what could be learned from it, and who would pay for that knowledge?

Depending on user stickiness, you could move to a paid model. And depending on your definition of "monetize" this wouldn't need to be prohibitive, e.g. $1 per year, or $1 for lifetime/device membership. Of course, we're all spoiled by "free" services at the moment, so obvious caveats apply.

If you own the platform and the code, could you make a corporate or white-labelled version? Would Megacorp pay for a branded version for their 1000s of users?

Could you exit and sell to Megacorp? Are you screwing over your users if you do this? Is there some sort of halfway-house alternative, e.g. a big player in a relevant field who would pay you to continue development and support? See recent HN conversations about monetising open-source projects for discussions about this sort of model (whether yours is open-source or not these conversations might still be relevant).

Could your users monetise their own content, and pay you a slice, kinda like substack et al?
I don’t think this is a fair comparison. Phones are on people essentially 24/7 now, there are few/no times where you are not connected. For alcoholism, a fair comparison would be a flask that buzzes to remind you it’s there and tell you there’s something you should check inside.

Telling people to just ‘develop self control’ is extremely hard when on a societal scale, these services are becoming increasingly interwoven with daily life and participation in wider society. Opting out is an active choice to move against the grain, and you could suffer socially for it. This isn’t something that should weigh on one person alone.

Not mass migrating but it isn't completely untrue either here in the EU, I keep meeting other Latin Americans like me who emigrated away and plan to never come back.

Same experience here. I assume it works better in Sweden, but I have no idea why someone with customers outside Sweden would want to use this.

One e-shop I use regularly switched to Klarna and the whole checkout experience got much worse. Simple forms replaced by broken interactive ones, etc. It's still not better than the old UX, even after multiple iterations. I'm more reluctant to enter CC info than before, for what that's worth.

That graph shows CO2 equivalent, so the 30x is already calculated in there. But yes, we are also worried about methane.
I cancel every online order if I find out that it is handled by PayPal, Klarna, Mollie or other data collecting entities.

The situation in Europe is so bad that you are sometimes tricked into a prepaid order only to find out that the invoice comes from one of those.

Bucharest... Romania in general, has to play a difficult diplomatic game. The only source of the stability in the region comes from Bucharest. Look at its neighbours:

Moldova, who was part of the Eastern bloc, has strong tendencies towards EU and RO, Romania is even offering them citizenship, to literally everyone that applies for one. Moldova has a region called Transnistria which is the equivalent of Ukrainian Donbass. It's a ticking bomb.

Ukraine, is literally divided, in the sense that their politicians don't have a clear direction. Romania and the EU still do not know if they are on the course to join the EU. Last time, Ukraine took the Russian and Romanian curriculum out of the schools. Let's not forget that Ukraine has pretty significant Romanian and Russian minorities. What kind of signal does this send? You don't even know what they are on about. Is that the start of a fierce nationalism promoting isolationism?

Serbia, another Romanian neighbor, they have affinities with Russia due to their shared Slavic heritage, which is perfectly fine. But they also don't give any indication of anything. What are your plans? Do you see yourself as an EU member? Is there any anti-corruption fight going on?

The only close neighbor to Romania is Hungary because of their shared European values. But even Hungary has problems with JOBBIK and Fidesz. Bulgaria comes second.

I can say that Romania is already living the new Cold War, it's right at the core. Without EU and NATO, today Transylvania, Moldavia and Wallachia wouldn't have been a unitary body of democractic values called Romania.

You can't sanction Belarus through brute force. You can't take on Russia without repercussions. Looks at this game between the embassies:
