You're told not to drive or sign legal documents for a week after in Australia. That's a very long time to be considered "compos mentis" in my book. Brain plasticity being a "thing" and psychoactive drugs like ketamine or psylocibin being capable of encouraging brain rewiring why would you be "the same person" after that experience: I would argue that literally your brain changed. Well. Anaesthesia is not well understood and the models of what it does are unclear. You think you came back unaltered. Ask an anaesthetist about older patients and mental decline.

I felt different. I felt partially robbed of time (and I know for a fact I was alert for 20min after one, being interviewed for a drug trial, a period of time I have no recall, except what I was told by the consultant yet, somebody was answering questions...
I was born very late to parents who otherwise would have made me a boomer. I'm pretty sure what you say is correct and caused by the little accepted fact that people were traumatised by the war not anything like this fantasy idealism that they just had Gary Cooper laconic takes and stiff upper lips. My parents gen (born into the great depression) were messed up to silence.
I think there were at least 2 - 3 cycle where BTRFS declare itself as good and stable only to have people experiencing yet another Data Loss.

As far as I can tell it's not advertised publicly. For instance it's not in the FAQ on the starlink website (although considerations about snow are). I was unable to find a PDF of the booklet that comes in the box though, so maybe it's in that.
> There is this odd schizophrenia where the 50s were viewed as this golden age of middle class workers while at the same time a period of vicious sexism/racism/etc, which causes people to complain at how much worse they have things while simultaneously insisting about how much moral progress has been made.

It seems it's quite possible for members of the dominant group to reap benefits from a system that benefits them, while members of the oppressed group experience abuse. No schizophrenia needed to explain this.
Please don't take HN threads into nationalistic flamewar. It destroys this place, and it's a non sequitur. Mistreatment of children exists in many countries, though no doubt it takes various forms. Letting a story like this one land on and inflame pre-existing prejudices is not the best way to process this information.
You again wih shallow dismissal.

Edit: This was in reply to dang but he took issue with being called out.
It’s hard to fault SpaceX for realizing a market opportunity here. If they can bring decent Internet to rural areas who don’t currently have broadband access, that’s just mutually beneficial for SpaceX and those customers.

When (if) those customers ever get broadband access by additional infrastructure investment, SpaceX will need to find a way to provide better value. I’m not sure I understand how this is a bad thing.
You just have to know it is called 'network connections'. So like most other GUI things: hit Start button, start typing 'network connections'. For me it pops up after typing 'net' already. Which is actually easier and more consistent than in any other Windows version (IIRC), and super accessible, and faster than hunting for things with the mouse. Now if they'd add fuzzy matching this would be wild :)

Alternative would be knowing that a lot of 'old' control panel UIs are accessible through the new one, so: go into the new settings UI to network-related stuff (Win-x, w or Win-X, n and start typing 'network') and there will be 'change adapter settings' somewhere. Or possibly you can change the setting you want from the new UI.

Which indeed shows this particular par was turned into a mess. But as the OP says: I haven't actually been bothered by it a lot myself. Likewise for some UI parts looking different: it has been like that since as long as I can remember on computers, no matter which OS or whether it's a CLI, TUI or GUI: if you use more than a couple of tools there are always going to be tools which look and/or do things in a different way. So people kinda get used to that anyway. Not that it's an excuse for doing this to an OS, but just looking at it from the practical side.
I like Larry O'Brien's three-part series, "15 Exercises to Know a Programming Language," [1][2][3] mostly for the overall philosophy ("should be tough enough to require problem solving: try to embrace the language's idioms") and for the rationale that comes with each exercise (e.g. implement this to learn that about your chosen language). Note: the internal links between parts of the series are broken, so here are all three parts:

> This is something software engineers (of which I am one) often miss-understand about other engineering disciplines. You can totally ship software that you know will run into problems down the line ... because people often have insanely low expectations of how well software will work.

I feel like this is the self fulfilling prophecy. We definitely didn’t use to ship software we knew would break, because we literally shipped it on disks, and delivering updates was hard.

The internet has been good for many many things. Software reliability hasn’t been one of them.
If history is any indicator Nintendo will release these improvements on future virtual consoles as paid upgrades. They’ll credit the open source contributions they didn’t have to pay for to make this possible.
Got the embody in late March 2020. It’s a great chair for me. It developed a creaking sound in the seat after 6 months, which must have been a production issue for a while, as there are threads in the HM subreddit about it.

Free on-site repair. No problems since. I spend a lot of time in the chair and it is top notch.

I also use a Fully Jarvis for standing some of the time.

Monitor height matters, too. I use the Apple XDR pro display and the stand. Adjustments are as good as it gets.
And it’s fixed!
I know that Windows Vista still had some Windows 3.x UI elements included. For example, the file picker dialog you’d get when installing a font would be a pretty ancient one. Is that still the case, or has it been updated in the meantime?

I had this too. I found and fixed the setting in the registry. They seem to have arrived at an UI design that cannot correctly represent the possible states of the underlying "real" model.
Their current GUI for managing installed language keyboards is unfortunate. It appears to be optimized for a perceived majority of users only needing a single layout, in a way that makes it difficult to manage multiple layouts.
Somehow their UI mix the keyboard layouts together with the GUI display language.
I don't quite understand, why they don't just let the user manage a simple list of installed keyboard layouts (I believe it used to work that way, and behind the scenes it probably still does?)
Where do we find a middle ground??

I can see the point of people starting "tough love" camps.

But also, youth of today are incredibly soft, condescending and not ready to take responsibility for themselves.

We people above 40 years old built the modern world that everyone now enjoys. Many of us had INCREDIBLY rough childhoods. We never enjoyed the helicopter parenting that Millenial-on-up children got.

The world (despite all it's problems) has never been more advanced, safe, Cushy and full of promise.

And yet, we have people complaining that working at Amazon is too hard. The same Amazon that employs over a million people -- with countless ripple effects for families, suppliers, their families, etc. etc.

Good times make weak people. Bad times make strong people. (or something like that).

Maybe I should start one of those camps and make a fu*k ton of money.
There are and were many more choices available in North Germany, produced in the vast plantation area known as Altes Land. Also, for extensive cultivation in your own backyard, seeds and young trees for old/traditional varieties are available in abundance, and I'd imagine that to be the case in UK as well.
We try to avoid bots because anything too mechanical is repetitive and that's not in keeping with the spirit of curiosity.
I would guess that it could be due to having more ions in air due to higher radiation levels.
The same thing is true in hot climates.

Neither did Gödel's automatic theorem prover require "human ingenuity or creativity required to carry out the steps" to enumerate all the theorems from the axioms, which are also enumerable. Gödel really described "the heart of what it means to be computable."

> Drop the union and things get even better. Don't let the poor performers drag the average or top down.

As someone who lives in Europe and benefits from unions in multiple ways on a daily basis, I really do not understand how this absurd myth regarding "unions protect and foster bad performers" came from.

I mean, the core belief that supports this idea is that the only thing that's needed for a professional to enjoy decent and safe working conditions where he is fairly compensated for his work is to be really good at his job. No need to even have negotiation in the picture, rewards just magically fall from the sky as some sort of cargo cult.

But reality does not really work like that, does it? Specially for non-white collar jobs whose role in the production chain is designed to be easily replaceable and there are diminished returns in employee performance.

Could you ever see Microsoft dropping the registry?

My probably unpopular opinion is that the registry is the worst feature in Windows. It’s bloat directly impacts the speed of the operating system.

Seems like such a waste for so many advancements in Windows but the registry sticks around like a bad hangover.
Similar thread from earlier today:

There are at least 10 different Microsoft design conventions in Windows 11 - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27553108 - June 2021 (125 comments)
it helped me more quickly assess tools, skills, readings, and even relationships based on more readily-categorized material.

otherwise, i was just guessing but unsure.
Your recollection does not match my recollection.

From what I remember, initially they were saying masks are not useful to protect against disease because of various different reasons. Some of them were that general public would not wear masks properly and it would lead to increase in touching your face.

This "anti mask" approach was there until they managed to get enough masks, then changing their guidelines to include masks or even mandate masks. This was publicly admitted.

In my opinion, this whole process was a big mistake as it led to confusion and increase in public distrust of the health officials. How can you suggests masks don't work then change it to masks work but we had to keep them for ourselves.

Second problem is how does the mask not work if the virus spreads through droplets - if masks don't work then it is spread as an aerosol which was initially dismissed.

Unless you accept that Almaty comes from Almatau which means Apple Mountain.

There's little doubt that the name comes from the word apple.
Sorry, I was on mobile. I meant: if the business model is clear then so is the motivation and thus it will be clear what expectations for support look like. I think having a clear indicator for what Hedgehog's motivation is (i.e. the business model) would help build trust in the product.

My fear is that I'll invest time and information into the product and then support will drop out because my goals won't be in alignment with Hedgehog's goals.

I imagine this comes down to personal preference a lot, but I strongly prefer Roundcube over Gmail. They have improved a lot over the past years, if you have some preconceptions. After 10y+ on Gmail I finally feel like I am getting a grasp over my own email.

But then I also very much prefer a hierarchical/directory tree approach to organizing e-mail than labels&search as Gmail does it.

More similar UX-philosophy can be found in Mailpile[1] and Cypht[2]. Both still have decent amount of moving parts but are continuously progressing.

I also would like to see Azure Sphere adopt Rust.

It cannot be that they do all the marketing sales speech about about Azure Sphere is the future of security in IoT devices, and then offer a C only SDK as option.

They even went to the effort to try to turn this into a positive thing, when the obvious questions started raining on them, given the marketing sales pitch.

How does a starlink internet connection perform in a light storm?

The dish looks a bit delicate.
Max Planck suggested that "Science progresses funeral by funeral!". I think we know that this doesn't only apply to science. A marked absence of funerals in the cadre of very powerful people reluctant to let go, might present yet another problem. Could be a tyrant's charter.
It's a good point - I wonder if the actual user really sees an old-looking GUI screen as worse than an arcane terminal configuration.

That's because you're being paid a hundred times as much. No I will not let someone else screw up my heating for a coupon. $60 a year? I'll try it and I won't feel scammed.
What has that to do with the feature list?

Interestingly especially "Millberget" mentioned above gets extremely much better better reviews on the US site.

I wonder what this means:

- has IKEA been unlucky with their first reviews on the Norwegian site? (there are very few)

- has a local competitor placed them?

- are the US versions different?

- have IKEA stuffed their US reviews?

This thread seems to indicate that people do genuinely like their chairs but that is the closest I get right now.

Last I went to IKEA to try one I thought they felt flimsy but maybe I should reconsider now.
> They created the show in the first place

Well, "created" may be too big a word here... Transferred it from book to screen, rather.

As evidenced by the fact that when they ran out of stuff to transfer and started actually creating for themselves, quality took a nosedive.
From the article:

"four years earlier the Works Progress Administration had initiated an unprecedented scheme to pay thousands of unemployed writers to document America, its people, its locales and its heritage"
No problem, plenty of people that actually work in commercial games do it.
Is this also the reason why there are no tabs in windows explorer?
Yeah, the data remains permanently encrypted but you can access it. You pay X dollars per month for that access. They even provide protection against other gangs as well as offsite "backup" themselves. Plus your business can be an infection vector for other enterprises and individuals. The actual fees start low...
I believe when latency is a concern then the calculous skews much more in the direction of providing feedback locally based on the data. For instance a reasonable strategy could be to make updates to the file locally in the ide in order to provide immediate feedback as the user types, but then send those updates to the server where other higher latency features such as code completion or diagnostics are run. Sadly I have yet to see such a setup.
> Lot of people hate me for this or that, either jealousy or lifestyle judgements.

It's great to live how you prefer, and it's not right for people to hate you for it.

I perceive your self description to be pretentious and creepy. Just an alternate explanation.
Indeed, more research needed.

But we do have to start somewhere.
Does Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo offer the same?

The lack of personal relationship with GNU/Linux offering is what made it fail the desktop adoption.

I'll bite, no because Prometheus, Thanos, etc all have to reinvent sharding (Thanos), a query language (Promql), vectorizing (Prometgeus can't), transactions (Prometheus internals), etc when it all exists in clickhouse and uses somewhat standard SQL. There are trade-offs but imo it's not worth NiHing something
Just like yours doesn't.
They are being pressured to withdraw their custom, based on, arguably, unfounded accusations of GB News spreading hate. A viewpoint that many don't share.

One of the advertisers, COOP, recognise this is an issue, so they have a policy to "Not seek to affect the editorial independence of publications or channels".

They declined to withdraw their custom, as they knew to do so would be censorious.

Other companies might find it expedient by acting as censors in the short term, but others, like COOP, seem to realise it's unwise to withdraw commercial contracts under pressure from an activist group campaigning against alleged speech that they don't agree with.
Give it a go see if you can get 10/10
Because without a magnetosphere there is 1) no potential difference between the ionosphere and the surface 2) charge particles from solar wind (and cosmic radiation but mostly solar wind) accumulate on the surface. There's technically an ionosphere but it is extremely weak because Mars's dynamo isn't moving.

Also ground is about a differential. What you don't want is floating potentials. You want a constant refernce value. Floating potentials are dangerous because you don't have a constant reference value and thus the chance of unwanted discharge.
Literally the first FAQ. Emphasis mine:

"Frequently Asked Questions

How does Digital COVID-19 Vaccine Record portal work?

The Digital COVID-19 Vaccine Record portal draws COVID-19 records from California’s immunization systems. Enter your name, date of birth, and an email or mobile phone number associated with your vaccination record, then create a four-digit PIN. If the information you submitted matches the official record, you will receive a text or email with a link to your digital COVID-19 vaccine record. Enter the PIN you created to view the record."

MySQL Tutorial for Beginners – Select Statement
Just want to mention that I recommend the book "Rethinking School" by Susan Wise Bauer. It's a book I recently read that I wish I had heard about several years ago as it discusses the futility of trying to fit a round peg (child) into a square hole (traditional k-12 system) and discusses various strategies for working around that.

The author and colleagues have set up a related website (welltrainedmind I think?) and forum which seems to be fairly active and with a diverse set of viewpoints.
Last time I checked one was forced to buy PCs to develop for Windows, buying Android phones to develop for Android,....
Why is/should participation in a demand response program be the difference between killing people and inconvenience? Wouldn't fluctuations in grid supply and demand make much more of a difference as far as there being energy for folks' survival needs?

Shouldn't grids be ensuring they have sufficient supply so that no one dies? Why would we want to design a system where lack of participation in a demand response program means people could be at risk of death?
You can run your own stuff and use a commercial relay like Sendinblue to handle delivery for you. Best of both worlds, in my opinion.

In this case, I think you're right, it's a small sample. More generally, the statistical power of a test [1] relates the sample size with the magnitude of the effect to test.

In other words, subtle effects need a huge population to distinguish from noise, while huge effects will show even with small populations. All this is very sensitive to bias due to selected population as always.

All in all, I agree, more research needed. Anyone knows more research about this, with bigger samples?
