Looks really nice. As someone who just found out about Milkdown and Prosemirror through this post could you clarify what this adds over prosemirror-markdown? Would it be hard to be able to do the "switch to markdown" thing they do in this example? https://prosemirror.net/examples/markdown/

I'm thinking about using something like this but would require a custom markdown extension. Would that be easier with Milkdown because it uses markdown-it?
The duct tape scene is not right, there is a youtube video [0] from a physicist and astronomer that explains pressure suits (which the duct tape would provide). He surmised that they had a minimum of a minute to do their work, and certainly wouldn't have been leaking blood all over the place.

The other trope that For All Mankind really fumbled on was the decompression of the space station (I'm avoiding spoilers for those that don't know why). It followed the trope of massive amounts of air continuously rushing out of the station when that can only happen when there is a massive amount of air available to continuously feed the decompression. In reality, it would be a short rush of air to vacuum as the window was large enough for most to escape very quickly.

I don’t know when this occurred but a few months ago sites started having an oversupply problem and were taking people no questions asked. At that point the elderly and vulnerable had several months lead time and 95% of the people at the vaccination centers were 25-55. I was more outraged at the snitches rage. I personally don’t think there was a moral issue here at all.

I don't doubt you believe that too. But as far as I can tell, it's what people in western forums believe too as long as those Chinese people don't opine in a way that's similar to the government that 95% of them support (otherwise they're bots, coherced or brainwashed, or otherwise not full humans).

Our users are transacting $1 million per day on our platform now. We've hired four great engineers via this HN post and are continuing to patiently build our engineering team.

Here's a 10-min intro: https://www.loom.com/share/826f7519c5a34a9e97400b7715aef56e

With our digital USD app built on react native and flask, we help our users in Venezuela and Argentina cope with hyperinflation. Users can buy USD with their local currency in order to hold and transact freely in dollars, something they can't easily do otherwise.

Unless you have experienced high inflation and capital controls you may not understand our product – basically, if your money is losing its value quickly and you aren't allowed to convert to a stable currency, that really sucks. Our app helps you solve that, hence "BitTorrent meets CashApp."

We’re a silicon-valley-born project backed by Sam Altman and Peter Thiel personally, but these days we’re spread across the US, Latin America, and Europe. We’re open to team members from anywhere.

Long term, we're on our way to offering a stable asset-backed cryptocurrency that is detached from the US dollar.

I am not sure if it is true in general. But Saudi Arabia is an example. It is considered a reliable US ally, and in the meantime there are tensions about nuclear power generation there. I'd think a lot of countries fall in that category.
Did I miss where this article explains why this should be the case? There's a lot of data here, but not much explanation of the methodology or why it makes sense.

It's cheaper to build utility scale solar/wind, it's probably cheaper to build utility scale batteries, and seems like these would function equivalently to distributed solar/batteries. So where is the advantage coming from?

The only possible advantage I can see is the average load on the grid would be lower with distributed solar/batteries, but the peak load would be the same, so I don't think that helps at all.
If you're an organisation with vCenter, even if you don't have it 'onto the internet' you're far from safe. Your exposure then is merely every user and every (other) device on your internal network that has routable access to your vCenter.

I don't think that paper says what you claim it says. From the conclusion:

> However, even though we have shown substantial evidence that Duke does indeed possess private information about the student’s future performance, we cannot conclude that there is mismatch.

It (claims to) disprove the hypothesis that there is no mismatch because Duke possess no private information, as private information is a necessary (but not sufficient) condition for mismatch.

There’s so many more factors though than just the mortality rate by age group.

Will they really wait until all elderly are vaccinated first? This would never work.

Just give it to everyone and it goes faster. While we wait for old people to get vaccinated it still circulates among young, who come into contact with old and unvaccinated, hence not helping things.
If the goal is to save memory, you can go farther than this. You could store the JPEG in RAM, compressed, and have the GPU decompress & shade. Each of the DCT blocks can be converted massively parallely on GPU.
The Apple M1 and A14 SoCs were built on TSMC's 5nm process while AMD has been using TSMC 7nm for Zen. With the next generation of Zen on TSMC 5nm, we will see whether Apple's ARM or AMD's x86-64 implementations are more performant when starting with the same silicon.
The NXP i.MX 8M Quad processor in the Librem 5 has "Made in Korea" stamped on them and there have been news articles published about how NXP was switching its foundry work from TSMC to Samsung.

With small kids it gets interesting, weekends aren't "time off" anymore in the sense of being able to follow adult pursuits, constant distraction and day begins at 6am and goes to evening or more if there are wake ups.

The work day at my full time job is the only real thinking time I have right now. I try a bit harder now to make that meaningful and interesting.

If I can't find a way to convince myself that the time I'm spending at work is part of a "life well lived" then I need to look for a new job.
> Hm. I'm not sure where the calculus lies on having a dose go slightly more slowly to populations that are more likely to get covid and/or die from it than quickly to young, affluent populations who are much less likely to die from it or get it.

You went from two groups ("populations that are more likely to get covid and/or die from it than quickly to young") to one ("young, affluent populations who are much less likely to die from it or get it") whereas the latter group overlaps with the group who is more likely to get Covid. People who have work with human contact are more likely to get it, whereas people who live sheltered are not likely to get it, nor spread it (which overlaps with elder group).

Anyway, none of this warrants skipping the queue. The queue is there for a reason, and we could draw a parallel with responsible disclosure. Sharing a vulnerability with your co employees so they can exploit it as well is not responsible disclosure. However, the guy responded in this thread and I am not convinced based on that post that it is a vulnerability. It seemed to be just open for 18+.
No, I'm opposed to using a currency that is force-fed down the throat of oil producing countries at the the risk of invasion if refused.
There’s GL_MESA_ycbcr_texture for vanilla GL and GL_EXT_YUV_target for GLES, but I’ve no idea how well-supported these are. (Notably, the Mesa extension is ancient—the changelog says it’s been published in 2003.)
> The government should not be the arbiter of one’s morality.

If people vote and decide that this is the way that it is being done, then people should respect that. Circumventing rationing because you feel like you are more deserving in that context is unethical.

> utilitarian perspective and not a political-agenda perspective it would have made sense to give the vaccine to healthcare workers first and then grocery workers next, as society in general will collapse if people are not able to get groceries

Not at all clear that this is the conclusion to reach. Grocery store workers are much more likely to spread, but are also very unlikely to be killed by it. Elderly people are likely to be killed by it. Most epidemiological modeling showed that vaccinating the elderly first and as quickly as possible was the fastest way to mitigate deaths, not vaccinating coronavirus.

This is exactly why it is better to come to these decisions as a society, not let individuals who may very well come to incorrect judgements about what the socially optimal thing to do is.

> IMO both if these perspectives were misguided and the optimal way to handle it would have been to had over vaccine logistics to Amazon who could actually make a web app that doesn’t crash to register for vaccines and just go first-come first-served.

This is classic HN backseat driver-ism. First-come first-served would have been ineffective, because again, there were ample reasons why vaccinating the elderly first made sense.
It's not unusual to see such timeframes in the context of nuclear decommissioning. For example:

"At around 2116, care and maintenance will end and any remaining buildings will be removed and the site returned as close as possible to its original state."[0]

Also, depending on what you mean by "some definite plan", and how young you are, your pension plan may include an estimated retirement date later than 2070.

> God forbid a Chinese citizen support their own government.

Does flagging stories highlighting "tank man" search results count as "supporting the Chinese government"?

That's a weird kind of "support".

I think you can be impressed by the economic progress China has through without denying reality.

Indeed, I do respect that such economic progress certainly isn't a given.
If only it were about advertising… Your attention is everything. Even beyond buying things or not. Your views about certain aspects of your life are affected by your senses and experiences, and so much comes from what you see, hear, and read online. Your data informs a lot of what ends up in your screen, which keeps shaping who you are. This vicious circle is what I call losing agency in the digital age. Are you OK with losing your individuality? What makes you… you? That’s my reason towards privacy.
Going to have to hard disagree there.

MFA and addressing password reuse is table stakes in 2021. Like this is literally the first item I would do as a CISO in any company.

MFA is among the core security items like running endpoint protection, updating your software or filtering spam. Bucketing it with things like CORS or auditing third party libraries is either disingenuous or extremely naive.

'Images' can communicate some things, like emotions, in a better way.

But 'memes' are things which are pushed onto situation that probably call for more nuance i.e. 80% of the 'Karen' memes I see are not actually 'Karen' memes.

But they don't necessarily communicate 'more' information, and more often than not, they're just used to put an emotive 'playround' spin on something. If the issue is important, words are almost always a better choice.

Irrespective of what happened, a GIF response to something semi-serious I think is bad form. If people aspire to assume responsibility for some important thing ... like processing payments ... then they can assume responsibility for making basic, conscientious communications.

From the tweets now deleted, looks like the internal bookface post in question wasn't all that popular and got roundly criticized.

What’s the bonus?
Fair point.

I still think the conclusion applies though. Not everything is a judgment on overall worth or character. Most rules exist for banal reasons. Arrive on time, so we can open on time. Maintain confidentiality, so that we can have a non public forum. If heated arguments are settled by going to twitter, that's a cultural norm that negates private forums. It's not a moral norm, necessarily, but an operational one.

Very few things are absolute though. If someone brags about murder, and that confidentiality is maintained then it certainly does say something about norms and culture of a group. That said, naughtiness is an explicit part of YC culture, for better or worse.

In any case, sometimes there are choices. Civil disobedience can lead to consequences, to make another analogy. People participating in it accept that.

IDK what actually happened on the private forum, but I imagine this is an argument that spilled out from private to public. If Paul considered this a "the world must know" situation, then maybe he considers the price worth paying.
Alameda County wasted more doses than any other county in California, so I wouldn't be surprised if there was a link between this fact and all the open appointments. It is true that if appointments were open, doses could go unused (and spoil because they were thawed in a batch).

If we continue using mRNA vaccines in the future, I hope some of these logistics issues can be solved. I'd rather the system prevents this, or allows it to occur in an unambiguous way that doesn't cause people to hate each other, question each others' morals, rat each other out, etc. I wouldn't say people skipping the line were doing the right thing, but I'm even less convinced that it was wrong. This was a gray area unaddressed by public health officials.

What specific allegations of wrongdoing would you like to make against Bill Gates in relation to Epstein? Come out with it.

The mere fact that well-known philanthropist Bill Gates happened to meet with convicted-pedophile-who-tried-to-rebuy-his-credibility-through-philanthropy Jeffrey Epstein doesn't imply Gates was involved in any pedophilla.
Don't know about the state of vax in the USA, but here in Germany it's pretty chaotic.

There are vax centers for priorized people and then every doc gets a bunch of vaccinations for their own patienst, which don't have to be priorized.

Now, some vax centers are temporarily closed, because they run out of vaccinations, so priorized groups cant get vaccinated anymore.

But if you find some doc somewhere, who still got a few jabs left, you can vaccinated there even if you aren't priorized.
As a NYC resident, I'm surprised to hear that it's not easy for healthy people to get a COVID vaccine in the Bay Area. I thought that the entire US was at the stage where they've got more than enough vaccines, at least that's the impression I got from the news.

EDIT: Nevermind, I guess this was all something that happened back in March. Interesting that this controversy arose now.

It's like these two people are competing for the worst self-own. From what I can tell (and the communications on this are very confusing), Biggar goes after Prafulfillment without having his facts straight enough to avoid issuing a nearly immediate correction. Then when Biggar gets canned, Prafulfillment gloats in a way that draws attention to their identity, without clarifying what actually happened, leaving Biggar's version as the only account of events. Additional tidbits of information are coming out, mainly in responses to responses to tweets... but this is a ridiculous way to conduct public relations.

This was back in March when vaccine demand outstripped supply & ensuring "fair access" to the vaccine was a big concern. It seems almost quaint now that we have the opposite problem. (FWIW I think Paul's reaction was pretty unreasonable, bordering on hysterical).
I'm in Oakland, I drove someone to a clinic. It was a day of pouring rain. We got there end of day. I didn't meet whatever high priority groups were getting vaccinated (though I do have a breathing related health condition). They had extra shots, they said come get a shot, their form didn't have a spot for leftover shots being used, so the women said I'll put you down as X (which I wasn't).

This whole thing of trying to criminalize and be outraged at folks in this space seems way out of whack.

So good on ycombinator!

Same thing with masks, no one allowed to wear N95's but health care folks. I had masks from the fires and my breathing issue. I wore the same mask for a few weeks against the rules. Got flak from folks saying a) masks don't work and b) I should have saved it for health care folks. Not only is that contradictory it's dumb.
I think getting vaccines to the elderly at a slightly slower rate at that time was deemed better than getting vaccines to exclusively much younger people at a somewhat faster rate.

As a fraction of the whole, there were not that many wasted doses (Oakland wasted ~0.39%, and most of those were not in these mobile clinics).

> If he's complaining about an instance of someone saying "There's unused vaccines in centers, show up at the end of the day and you can get one", then have at it.

Absolutely agreed, there were plenty of people doing this, it's totally ethical, but I don't think that was what he was referencing, as it was quite accepted in the Bay at the time.
