Unfortunately I think technical solutions are the only thing that will save us. Most countries would rather invade others then give up their standard of living.
You would have the TPM hold a secret that's used to repeatedly re-authenticate the session. Though today I don't know that this is often the supported workflow - for example, most of my TPM-based policies only enforce device-authentication on sign-in and not on every API call.
I wonder if earthbag technology could help to reduce building costs. Labor seems to be a big factor, but perhaps this could be reduced with the right equipment. Rural homes already need a big hole for septic; earthbags would then just make use of the dirt that's already sitting there, if not for the whole house then perhaps for some part of it.

I’m going to take a guess that perhaps it has to do with Google’s ability to continue to commercially operate in China.

Perhaps X leadership from Google spoke with Y leadership from China and reached this compromise in order to avoid a potential all-out ban of Google’s services in China, similar to - though nowhere close to the same reasoning behind - the US’ ban of Huawei telecommunications equipment.

PLEASE NOTE that this is purely conjecture. I am not affiliated with Google or China, in any way, shape, or form. This should not be taken as fact.
> I am aware of that and do care for justice but am afraid to talk abour it IRL to be honest. To be publically acused of antisemitism for being critical to Israel could be a real nightmare Im not ready to go through. ... Am I a coward? I think so but I have a family and want to hold onto my job. Here on HN I am not afraid to comment because this account is not tied to my real identity.

You're not a coward; you're human. Here's what I tell myself: There are people who sacrificed far more for freedom than whatever I risk - anger, rejection by some, even my job and reputation. However, I only have one job and one reputation, and I'm not sacrificing them for nothing.

And regardless, taking a dramatic stand rarely accomplishes anything. Listening to others, being curious and open about their positions, and then responding thoughtfully accomplishes much more with much less risk.

> I am no antisemitist, on the contrary, some of my favorite people are jewish.

FWIW, this is a classic line of prejudiced people: 'I'm not anti-X; some of my best friends are X.' There was even a public service commercial in the 1980s that used almost that exact line. Whatever your thoughts, I wouldn't say it. It sounds defensive, for one thing. Say something affirmative - e.g., 'Israelis have a right to peace and justice, as do Palestinians.'

If you are prejudiced (I have no idea; I'm not drawing a conclusion based on one sentence in an online post; and I am certainly nobody's judge), it's ok. We all are to various degrees - the point for me is to be aware that I am human too, that I have this human potential and to be aware of it and notice it, and also to be aware that I also have the human potential for much greater things, and I have a responsibility to embrace that and change my perspective.
I'm sure YT is going to trot out some stock reason for not re-instating the videos.

But this is pathetic. When YT goes on a bandwagon for some cause or other, this doesn't happen, but it appears to happen when the politics don't align with either their own politics or may offend one of their markets or their sponsors.

So, I guess it's their platform and they can do what they want, but there is a danger that this will tilt one-way and leave no room for this kind of dissent. And that is a great loss.

I hope they grow a conscience but I rather doubt it.

You're only puzzled because of its ubiquity, and your accustom to it. Nothing about it inherently says 'opens a menu from the side'.
How should I know? It depends on what you are trying to optimize for. The author seems to think if you want to minimize on-site construction costs, a radioisotope thermal generator is the way to go. That's pretty far out there. My comment was simply explaining why the author brought up resistive electric heat at all. Though why not just use the waste heat from the RTG, but then we are back to needing ducting I guess.

Ultimately it depends on what tradeoffs you want to make and your local climate.

I think district-based aka neighborhood scale geothermal is promising from a sustainability perspective, but introduces a significant coordination problem.

Those distros also all use systemd. Do you think they'll sign an image that doesn't include it? We're heading down a path where developers need permission to innovate, and the switching cost of running something non-standard becomes too high for even the most technical users.

Instead of walls I guess you could use... the floor and ceiling? Would that help? Walls at least don't have people walking on them.

In some sense just having "channels" through walls or floors would make things simpler, if electric and plumbing could be installed after the structure of the house was completed. But I can't come up with a way that would make sense. If you integrate channels into the framing that seems very similar to the current process (where "channels" are drilled through the wood), only you've added bulk and access panels. If you add channels that aren't part of the framing then you've increased the wall size with a lot of cascading effects.

Though there are basically channels through the floors that align with the joists. Maybe you could save effort by using those channels? But at the cost of material unless there was some wholistic design change.

Kind of related: it does seem possible that all-electric HVAC could be distributed through the house instead of using a central unit, and that might simplify things. Like it's unclear to me that central A/C is really much better than smaller split units, and certainly electric heat doesn't benefit from centralization.
> The material used in this type of wood can go up in flames much faster than traditional lumber does, meaning in a house fire, new homes will be more susceptible to something like a floor or roof collapse. Firefighters say it will happen quicker, too.

So? The code is available, which is what the parent commenter wanted. Getting something FOSS running using something that's already supported in mainline Linux is a week long project, perhaps, if you suffer with outdated U-Boot. You can still download the code for this device even on WD's website. (That's quite something, because typically companies start violating the GPL shortly after the device stops being sold, or when they get acquired and redesign their website)

This one would probably be harder, because there's not a ton of 32bit ppc distros around, and the storage is limited, so you'd have to setup some toolchain and build some ppc basis for the userspace, yourself.

I don't think many people would root for some 11 year old WD's trashy userspace code, and would rather want to run current musl, busybox and samba on this, or whatever.

Someone who likes these devices could have done the work and could have published it for others.

> I hope this would be addressed partially by not having a "mens league" but an "open league" and a "womens league".

Actually, AFAIK some (many? the majority? almost all? who knows...) of what we think of as "mens leagues" are already "open leagues". Can't recall if it was our national football league (Finland's Valioliiga), or the UEFA or FIFA (maybe all of them?) that simply doesn't have a rule "the Valioliiga / UEFA Champions League / Euro Cup / FIFA World Cup is only for men". So in theory women could compete there, too... They just don't.
Conspiracy nuts and other unsavory members from fringe communities do make for odd bedfellows when one is being actively censored, thus why I am loathe to promote Bitchute et al.

Man, even checking their official website makes me want to pull my hair out. Nowhere do they concretely mention either TPM or after some research what should be called TPP for intel. I can only guess that maybe they hide it behind yet another name (maybe Intel® Trusted Execution Technology ?) but the information on this is basically impossible to find on the internet at this point.

How did we get to the question of monetary aid here? What about the UN? Security council? Also of note is that until 1985 financial aid was much lower, a lot of this aid is in the form of loans or requires Israel to only use it for purchases from the US. The US generally supported Israel to further their own interests, oil and the cold war. Jordan also gets >$1B from the US a year. Let's not forget that the US actually went to war for some of its other pals in the region.

At any rate, the aid the US gives to Israel has isn't the subject at hand so I'm not sure why you're raising it. We're talking about media coverage and world (not just the US) opinion. When the media does report it totally lacks any context (honestly that applies to the all coverage, whether you may view it as positive to Israel or negative). You can't simply show a rocket hitting a building or a bomb hitting a building or people getting hurt (which they are) without context. Sure, the military aid is context, the history of the region is context, the suicide bombings of the early 2000's are context, the deportation of people from their homes are context, the withdrawal of Israel from Gaza is context, the Hamas taking over Gaza by force is context, how they use their $ aid is context, the connection of the Jewish people to Israel is context. With no context (or rather with no study of the details) this is just emotional mumbo jumbo. And sure, some things are clearly wrong even out of context, and some things are clearly right, but for the most part that determination can't be made from some 140 character tweet. No context results in shallow discussions.

I stand by my opinion that Israel is portrayed more negatively and generally not enough context is given, relative to other world events, and within the specifics of the conflict. You haven't really answered my question of how you measure this, and so without measurement you are entitled to your opinion (and your use of rhetoric) and I'm entitled to mine?

Israel is not (yet) a victim here. Are the Palestinians a victim? Perhaps. Israel isn't solely to blame for that. Is Israel doing some things I don't like? Absolutely. Are Palestinians doings things I don't like? Absolutely. Is the way out of this mess to shift the blame around? I don't know about that one. This shifting of the blame is just another angle of the conflict and something the sides (sure, both sides) are doing because they don't actually want a resolution.

This story we're discussing, which isn't really any sort of objective reporting (to say the least) really supports my point IMO. I definitely support the right of all sides to be heard though, and here we have one side being heard.

For me, it's been proximity. It's too expensive to own a home close to the city, and all my old friends live on various suburbs 30-60 minutes away.
> Homes can be purchased in other parts of the country for less than $57K.

Again, shelter is only one social service. The $60K covers all the other ones too. Could that be done more cheaply elsewhere? I wonder - cities have an economy of scale. They also have more opportunity for people to move out of homelessness, into jobs, apartments, etc.

The Espionage Act of 1917 is an extremely broad - and almost certainly unconstitutional - law passed during WWI, which gives the government broad power to go after anyone who publishes government secrets, including journalists. WWI was a low point in the history of freedom of expression in the US, and this law is a holdover from that era.

It's bad enough that there's a law on the books that allows the US government to go after American journalists, but in this case, the US government is asserting the right to prosecute a foreign journalist who operated from outside the US. As far as I understand it, if Julian Assange is extradited, he will not be able to argue in court that WikiLeaks' publications were in the public interest.

Good point. Also note that a 4-family home is going to be generally much more energy efficient than 4 single-family homes, since there are fewer walls that leak heat to the exterior. So the author's recommendation to build more multi-family dwellings is on point in that respect.

One thing Trump got absolutely right (intentionally or not) was borrowing money when interest rates are low. There's really no reason not to. If we spend $10T kick starting a carbon capture industry, at near zero interest rates, surely those enterprises will at least break even.

Wood can also be good in an earthquake (the "willow vs oak tree" principle). However modern low-cost manufacturing means you'll still suffer various damage due to things like gypsum wallboards which are less compliant than the wood framing. But those failures won't be fatal.

That’s one of the most interesting point to me:

Revell must have super clear, most hand holdy instructions possible, for a process that is long and finicky and they assume people will patiently go all the way anyway.

And that’s not just model kits, other Japanese company take the same approach. Finicky and painfully long but clearly explained.

In comparison IKEA spent decades to make shorter, clearer to assemble furnitures, so they can get by with less explaination.

Current day IKEA furniture is way sturdier, easier and faster to deal with than any other flatpack company I’ve seen, Japanese companies included (and I went through a bunch recently…)
> They said it about UEFI - and yet I run Linux on UEFI systems all the time.

Not just any UEFI, UEFI with SecureBoot enabled specifically. On SecureBoot-enabled systems, you're booting a Microsoft-signed executable that chainloads Grub, which then loads Linux. This has given Microsoft a power they should not have: the power to refuse to sign future versions of that first executable.
I hope so, I’ve come to seriously hate Reddit. I never used Facebook or Twitter as a replacement for the forums of the 2000s internet so it didn’t bother me as much that they were gamified and had low quality content. Reddit pivoting to a social media site breaks my heart and the fact that people who work there come to HN and say, “we don’t care what you or power users think because we have record engagement,” just infuriates me.

Reddit killed the old Internet forums but was a good replacement for them to an extent, and now they’ve destroyed and stopped trying to be that replacement leaving the internet with a serious lack of niche communities for discussion. I’ve tried putting together ideas for something that could fill that niche and not be susceptible to becoming overran with low quality meme content but I don’t really have the time to work on such a thing with the attention it deserves right now; and it isn’t a trivial problem to solve.

Cheap OEM office PC? They don't need fancy graphics, will only run Win10, and the 8 core CPU is probably adequate. Maybe they had a high defect rate and this might avoid offset the fab costs, if they can sell them at a profit. And given the high cost of real CPUs and GPUs right now, this might have a place. That was probably the reasoning of whatever market analysis that went into this decision.
There are populated areas whose livability is threatened by climate change. These are in very poor, low-latitude regions like Northern India. Sorry to burst your bubble, but PNWers will have the privilege of surviving and thriving with relatively minimal issue.

As always, the consequences of the environmental sins of the global wealthy, like you and me and most HNers, will be borne by the global poor in other places. We are all responsible for what they will endure in the coming decades.

Eco-despair is, as always, a facile psychological defense mechanism and a luxury of the most privileged. We are responsible for the problem, and we also have the most power to solve it. We need to act accordingly. Starting with a calm, rational, comprehensive reckoning of our options, including nuclear (which has made France the low-carbon leader of the developed world).

Instead of letting guilt paralyze us with delusional fantasies of a well-deserved universal doom, we should use our privilege to advance no-carbon energy and carbon capture to hopefully protect the less fortunate people whose futures truly are threatened.
This is kind of a new thing for society though. We used to have many media outlets, corporations, and governments. Now most media outlets are owned by a very few corporations, and they are tightly entangled with government interests globally.

There is a legitimate confusion indeed and it seems to be on your part!

What I am talking about when I say "dynamic dispatch" is the sort of dispatching done by R, LISP and Julia (and not by C++ or Java). Now, we can bicker about labels and you can insist that it's actually called "multiple dispatch" and not "dynamic dispatch", but you can't bicker about the semantic fact that "multiple dispatch" is actually more dynamic than "dynamic dispatch".

And this semantic point would've been trivial to unpack if you weren't try to win an argument.
