GNOME relies on some API that has been implemented by elogind. Nothing in this bit changed. Gentoo (I think with the help of some others) ensured it was implemented (forked) so the API could still be used without systemd.

I thought you were the same as the other person. You're continuing the same argument, so it really doesn't matter if you're the same or not: "quickly made systemd a hard requirement" is bullshit. Further, it could easily be worked around.

If you notice e.g. the history of Ubuntu it happens regularly that you hold back a component if there's a problem integrating it. This happens across multiple distributions. It isn't something unique, nor special.

GNOME nor Red Hat did NOT "quickly made systemd a hard requirement". Gentoo was great to ensure that the API that was depended upon was implemented separately. Aside from that, a distribution could also hold back the logind change that caused this change. Skipping over all of these details is great to make this into some big conspiracy story. However, it is rewriting history. It wasn't something unique. Yeah, GNOME release team misjudged one thing. But it actually took a few years before it became an issue. Not this drivel with "OMG they added a hard dependency". It wasn't like that.

In 737 case, it means redesign of the landing gear system, fuselage modifications, recertification, retraining, new support system requirements eg. Higher stairs, cargo support equipment etc.
KD-HT is a pretty standardized, commodity product. I used to work at a lumber yard on their Heat Treat process.
I am pretty sure that the lumber I see at Home Depot are the same lumber that I use to work on. It's not like they have their own mills and ovens. They buy the same commodity lumber like everyone else.

TBH, the lumber yard I worked at you to flood. We would have bundled stacks of lumber float all across the yard. We can pretty much take them the next day and ship them to a construction site. KD-HT lumber is pretty good like that.

Now, most of our large customers just have a reasonable expectation of the product. It's wood. It's gonna warp. It's gonna split. It's like most things like fresh fruits, or meat, or leather. There is a lot of variability.
people are forgetting w11 will be the useless windows version.

everyone knows that between actual windows versions (3, 95, vista, xp, 10) there are the BS money making by selling flashy badges to PC OEM manufacturers (98, me, forgot the name , 8)

so obviously w11 can be safely ignored by everyone.
I am very pleased by the way you moderate discussions on HN in general, but I really think you are very wrong on this. It is pretty clear that you are only thinking about the US perspective on things.
neat. gonna play with this, soon.
I think the point is there shouldn't be BA/PM/PO type people. It should just be engineers all the way.

Engineers who understand those roles exist and should be given the reins. Call them whatever but an engineer with domain knowledge is what you need for just about everything.
It's not a necessity that nitrogen fertilizer comes from fossil fuels.

Some of the first massive deployments of hydrogen electrolyzers are fir making ammonia fertilizer, replacing natural gas with solar-driven processes.

Also, I don't think that Borlaug is super closely associated with the fertilizer, as much as with breeeding hardier strains or shorter stalks, to prevent loss of wheat crops or rice crops, for example. For that matter, manure could ne used as fertilizer for the Green Revolution, there's no dependency on the Haber process, that was an entirely different revolution both in time and geography.
I haven't RTFA, but it's always struck me as funny that some of the items at the dollar store are 49¢ at the big box. Stuff like hose clamps comes to mind. You can get quite ripped off if you let yourself think "dollar = cheaper than everywhere else".

> "I don't know if you lose much learning power or if you just lose interest."

Both.

- As we accumulate knowledge while aging it becomes more and more difficult to learn new things. We are smarter and smarter though. (Most of us :)

- Losing interest sooner is natural. For example by the time I read through the documentation of one service that deploys containers on AWS the information is already outdated and two other, newer AWS services released doing almost the same. When someone says: "we need to investigate this new AWS ..." I am already shutting my ears.

The advice you are giving is interesting but irresponsible considering how different peoples' digestive systems are. I would downvote your original comment for that and for being off topic, but I view the downvote as a way of organizing comments. Again, this is interesting, but you are pitching a foot-gun to people.
More questions, if you don't mind...

Is it really scientific (?) to compare the first 6 months to the second? That is, for example, Covid ravaged extended care facilities. Was that the virus of too many facilities being ill prepared?

As for recently, "unvaccinated" is fairly broad and in aggregate hides important details. That is, are those ppl unjabbed by choice, or by necessity (i.e., immune compromised, pregnant, nursing homes, etc.) Why isn't this important distinction made?
An encrypted hdd/ssd will help of someone steals your computer, removes your drive, and tries to read it from another computer in order to bypass your passwords. It won’t do shit for ransom ware. Ransom ware runs as a user land program and does encryption from within your OS where you data is live and unencrypted. The end result will be a hard drive full of encrypted files that is then reencrypted by bitlocker.
You're missing the point of the pension and social security. There are, and has always, been a large portion of society making "just enough". Maxing out your 401k requires 19,500 dollars of pre-tax income you can dump into an account you can't touch. A little less with a match.

So do the math:

Median income in 2019: $65,712.

$19,500 is almost 30% of your pre-tax income. Not a whole lot left to save for a house, buy a (old, used) car, or any number of other things. I say pre-tax because the situation is even more bleak if you look at roth post-tax.

After contributing to your 401k as above your remaining take home after taxes (assuming you do not pay state taxes) is $23635.

So you max out your IRA at $6,000.

Now you have $17,635 to live on. Almost nothing. Maybe in the 90s this would've worked but even in my low CoL town renting an apartment will still run you $1,100 for a single room 600 square foot shack. You could do it, but you would be living on ramen and beans towards the end of the year assuming there weren't any medical emergencies, car problems, or any number of other things that could effect you (rising food costs, gas prices, electrical costs in summer, etc).

The purpose of a pension is that it provides a simple, easy, and guaranteed retirement plan for people in this situation. They can't afford to utilize their 401k for maximum benefit, and they can't afford to utilize an IRA to it's maximum benefit. 401ks were one of the greatest magic tricks ever pulled on Americans. While I agree they're great if you have the extra income, they do a lot of damage to the retirements of people who cannot afford them.
Being a YouTuber since 2006, I find myself getting sucked into Shorts for almost hours at a time. I snap out of the stupor sometimes feeling an emotional withdrawal after gazing at a chain of stupid 5 to 10 second clips.

The recommendation system of YouTube Shorts feels weighed down by rich and pretty 20 year olds at the gym, the beach, some mansion in LA, etc.

I wish the site was still small community friendly like it was 10+ years ago, but I understand they gotta get with the times. YouTube could've easily turned into Dailymotion and it's pretty remarkable they're still able to survive as merely a video sharing site. I guess that's the ubiquity you recieve with a Google acquisition. Even the name "YouTube" reeks Web 2.0 lol.
I do use Dollar store to buy stuff that is just pretty much disposable such as Balloons, birthday decorations among others. I can say that food is pretty bad and not healthy. Very similar to Iceland supermarkets here in UK

I have no issue with private pensions. If employers want to offer them and employees accept them, have at it. Don’t look to me to find the difference when the numbers don’t add up.

Public pensions are a disaster though. The people making the promises don’t care about being fiscally solvent. They just want to buy votes using your grandchildren’s tax dollars as a credit card.

The earning class will eventually vote with their feet and those municipalities will either force a haircut on the pensioners or beg for a Federal bail out.

Win 11 won't support a bunch of recent (3 year old) perfectly good hardware because demands for TPM like features.
Both runit and s6 are copies of daemontools which hasn't been updated since 2001. Try doing diffs of runit and s6 against daemontools. Are the differences are significant. What "improvements" were made.

Things can be built to last, including software. That so many programmers today are not building such things (possibly they are incapabale) does not change fact that some did so in the past (whether intionally or not), and some still can.
one big potential problem with simply adding magnesium to fertilizers is that its is extremely hydrophilic and will lock to water and become impenetrable. My suspicion is that one of the larger issues that aren't even discussed is the role of fungi in the soil. Usually there is a symbiotic relationship between plants and fungi whereby the fungi breaks down minerals in the soil and hands off these precious ions to the plant in exchange for sugars. By giving readily digestible nutrients to the plants via artificial fertilizers, we rob the fungi of its role. The plants stop working with the fungi and they soon die off. This in turn robs us of nutrients the plant would have attained as a result of the symbiotic relationship. Magnesium being among them.
Unfortunately not except of "tens of megabucks" range
Also worth noting, the South Carolina plant is NON-union, while the Washington (state) plants are unionized.

I speculate that focus on safety and quality of work are easier at the unionized plants.

There is a reason nerds love Normal Borlaug, and that is he probably saved tons of people. Sure, maybe the food is less nutritious (a nebulous term, anyway) but we do have food.
Hi all,

This is something I built for fun in the past 10 months or so. I wanted to build something lean and fast, and I had trouble finding a good, performant plotting library, where I could just throw a heap of data and see what it looks like... so I decided to build my own.

It's still very primitive, but it's fast and I think it can be useful if you want to quickly examine large data (like, up to 1GB or so). Feel free to take a look and tell me what you think!
When you're building a house, it's not hard to add additional insulation on either side of the framing. Not terribly expensive, either. You also save on the installation of the furnace (and AC) because it just requires very little heating and cooling.

Since insulation is low maintenance, you'll get those savings over the whole lifespan of the house.

Now, if you're in an existing house, it likely doesn't make sense to tear down all your siding and drywall just to add insulation, since you're having to both demo and build.
Although this can mostly be attributed to ripeness. Ripe tomatoes degrade extremely quickly so store bought ones are almost exclusive picked unripe and then artificially ripened at locations closer to where they are intended to be sold.

This is also why canned tomatoes are generally considered superior for making tomato soups and sauces. Tomatoes harvested with the intention to be conserved are picked much riper since they can be processed and packaged almost immediately after.

As ever with security questions, the answer to that depends a lot on your threat model.

Microsoft say that the main features of TPMs are that they [1]:

> Generate, store, and limit the use of cryptographic keys.

> Use TPM technology for platform device authentication by using the TPM’s unique RSA key, which is burned into itself.

> Help ensure platform integrity by taking and storing security measurements.

One can, in principle, imagine situations á la Apple's T2 chip whereby this could be very useful to the end user -- for example, in hardware rate-limiting whole drive encryption decryption requests. Microsoft don't actually state this as a potential use-case. They go for the rather more prosaic

> Antimalware software can use the boot measurements of the operating system start state to prove the integrity of a computer running Windows 10 or Windows Server 2016. These measurements include the launch of Hyper-V to test that datacenters using virtualization are not running untrusted hypervisors. With BitLocker Network Unlock, IT administrators can push an update without concerns that a computer is waiting for PIN entry.

The rest of the page then goes on about hardware attestation. In reality, I am increasingly convinced that this is all an elaborate DRM scheme, similar to what they integrated in the XBox, with its on-chip crypto. I think we will see increasingly user-hostile, but more "transparent" DRM schemes based around this idea, and continue the cat-and-mouse game of "you are running this code in a VM and that is unauthorised for $MONEY_REASONS".

I'll stick to Linux, thanks.

Relying on pensions is not ignoring retirement. It is assuming that you will receive the benefit you were promised as part of your compensation. Not getting your promised pension is the same as your 401k balance being confiscated by your broker to cover for their own financial shortfall.

The main difference is that the 401k is a much more transparent product, so this outright theft is not as possible. The flip side of that is that your exposure to the market is more direct (which may not be that much of a flipside, as pension funds are still exposed to the market, but that exposure is more obscured).

> I don't see how the taxes for the rest of us are going to go down with the aging population.

Who says taxes are going to go down? Reading the political winds, the grass roots support for raising taxes is the highest I have ever seen it, and seems to be growing. We are leaving the political era of low taxes independent of the actual fiscal need to raise them.
The sad truth is that I don’t have an interventional, randomized study to show you. I could tell you to do your own research but that’s not very convincing either. All I can say is that if you or someone you know has symptoms that could be improved by a carnivore diet, just try it for a month. That’s the best proof I can offer.

As soon as academia gets around to conducting a study, I will make sure it’s posted.

> The Cuban vaccine is neither a vector vaccine nor does it work with mRNA technology. Instead, it's a so-called protein vaccine.

> That means it carries a portion of the spike protein that the virus uses to bind to human cells. It docks onto the receptors of the virus' own spike protein, thus triggering an immune reaction.

"thus triggering an immune reaction" because...? (genuinely asking - I know nothing about vaccines)

"After all, security is all about feelings rather than safety."

Really? I'm supposed to take someone seriously that makes a statement like this?
It boils down to the mRNA process being faster and more of a sure thing for a novel virus. I hope there are eventually many more effective protein based vaccines approved.

The problem with expressing your protein in some animal cell is that often times there are sugars that cells add to proteins and they differ by lifeform type. So the protein will end up shaped different in a yeast than in a animal cell. Additionally, growing in a third party host lifeform often leads to situations where you can't get it to grow in the host anymore because the virus changes.
If someone steals your computer, they also have the TPM, which has the key, right? What am I missing about what TPM does that is so secure?

Apple did the same thing. Big Sur will only show you the percentage. Not the estimated runtime. You can find the estimated runtime by looking at the energy tab in Activity Monitor. There are also 3rd party tools that will show it. But by default, it's not readily visible.

Apple claims they did it because the runtime estimate wasn't accurate enough. Maybe Microsoft's reason was the same. Though it does seem user hostile to remove it, unless the estimate was substantially off and there's no way to fix it.

Experiment: What happened to the mole after sunburn
I've struggled with exactly this lately. I used to write and record and play in bands. It sounds awful but at some point I lost hope of being commercially successful at it. The fantasy of rock stardom was what drove me to spend thousands of hours writing and playing. But I still love music. I rearranged my goals during the pandemic, bought a pedal steel guitar and started teaching myself something completely different. Now I can see myself getting onstage in a year or two and backing up a band I like, just for the joy of playing. Just having that long term goal in the back of my mind has let me lose myself in hours and hours of practice. In the code arena, I often have a "Show HN" in the back of my mind, even if I rarely or never show anything.

But internationally, the type of cheese they make is far better known as "feta" than by its Turkish or Bulgarian names. But for reasons that have nothing to do with quality or authenticity, they're not allowed to sell their cheese under the name that international customers expect that type of cheese to be called.

> So people can learn new names

Of course, but the point of turning "feta" into a geographical indication was to gain a monopoly on a name that people around the world associate with a certain type of cheese. Other producers of that type of cheese who do not reside in Greece are concretely harmed by this. It's particularly unfair to other producers in the Balkans and Turkey, who have every bit as much cultural heritage of producing this type of cheese as Greeks do.

Matter cannot be created, just reformed. There were 100,000 humans at one point and now there are 7 billion. All that matter came from somewhere. To be fair, we have killed a lot of animals but also created a lot more in the form of farm animals.

It seems reasonable to me that this is unlikely to be sustainable even if we found a way to send humans off planet. Maybe that missing magnesium gets pulled out of the soil into crops, then into our bellies, and then into a wooden box that sits as far away from our arable land as we can get it.

I of course have no scientific background or idea what I’m taking about, just a fun pop science theory that came to mind when reading this.
