It's heart-breaking to see many of my Chinese friends / peers keep their heads in the sand about this. Usually they'll fall silent the topic arises. At most, they'll say something about cultural differences and social cohesion and that as an American I just couldn't possibly understand. If I press them on it they'll mention the Japanese internment camps in WWII, and I'll agree with them that it was awful and that my country has done evil things that I am ashamed of. But I've never heard this shame reciprocated.
I have some older LCDs at home, and a newish Samsung 49 inch (heat comes heavily from the front of the panel on this one!), also an LG 4k TV. All get hot. Could also be that I'm just unlucky.

Does the same thing happen if you unlock your login keychain in the Keychain application in Utilities?

It might just need access to the keychain to get permission, through some accessibility service, to be able to use the remapped buttons. I’d guess that there’s no link to force / ask the keychain to unlock and allow it as the Logitech software is older than the new permissions process.

I'm an engineer on the code intel team at Sourcegraph. You can try out compiler-accurate code navigation here https://sourcegraph.com/github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph@2... See "Go to definition" and "Find references".

The general idea is that you should be able to navigate your codebase online with Sourcegraph similar to how you would navigate the code with a local IDE (IntelliJ, VS Code). The benefits of Sourcegraph become more pronounced once the size of the codebase grows, especially across multiple repositories, and you're working with a large team of developers.
This. People tend to grossly underestimate the expense and effort to build new rail tracks in an industrialized country. Most land is owned by someone already, there are environmental concerns, other (rail-)roads and generally obstacles must be crossed, and -worst of all- you have to repeat the process basically for every single town you want to connect.

Side remark: The same holds for roads, of course, with the notable caveat that roads form a flexible network automatically. Planes are just superlinear in their flexibility: If you have n airports and add one more, you get n new connections.
Yep,every VST seems to be a learning exercise. But the variety of layouts and colours can also be inspiring. That said, the most garish were rarely keepers.
No produce listed, and most of the non-junk foods have apparently-little consolidation, though they don't chart that like they do for meat. I guess things aren't as bad as the title says.

Also I wouldn't take that recent difference between cost and price of meat as a rising margin until supply chains are back to normal, but that's what it's meant to imply.
> but I have often heard in these threads the rumor that the reason the Remarkable E-Ink tablet cannot be fully open-source is due to restrictive licenses for the E-ink technology they use.

isn't the founder of Remarkable an HN user? I am interested to knoww for sure if this is a fact. Is EInk is violating on infringing upon the GPL?

> Basically people are upset (understandably) that they're holding this amazing technology in their hands but are not free to use it to its full potential,

I think my understanding of the technology and its potential is different than what marketing people may be saying. Let me paste what I wrote before about it.

"

I work in the display industry. My take is neither will happen. Lets start with B.

> B) Color e-ink displays get good enough for interactive use, movie watching, etc.

There is no commercially sold genuine color e-ink today. Kaleido is a grayscale e-ink with a color filter laminated on top. Kaleido Plus is just the same with a light guide.

E Ink did show off a genuine color display back in 2018 called Advanced Color and marketed as "Gallery". But it would take 30s to display an image and it was 32 colors or 16 colors. Not 16-bit color. I mean only 16 colors. E Ink tried to get the industry to buy in and start making products using this technology but nobody really signed on. They revamped their production to then start producing 7 color panels in much smaller sizes like 5" for signage. I heard that hasn't hit the numbers they needed to even cover their RnD costs. I doubt it will be a commercial success.

When you say "good enough for movie watching", I'll say that'll never ever happen with electrophoresis. You can't violate physics. Either a pigment particle moves slowly and stably or it moves fast and is unstable. You'll never be able to get both. That's why newer technologies by various startups like ClearInk sacrifice the bi-stability in order to get fast video speeds. But look at the market response, the market isn't exactly embracing that either. Venture capitalists aren't exactly eager to fund the billions needed to create new display tech when they could invest in some new internet services startup or AI/ML startup instead.

As for A), these are all emissive technologies. They will by their physics always be distinguishable from paper. As to whether you'll care or not, that is something I can't predict.

I've wondered the same... given that they've been prosecuted due to their religion.
From the way you brought up the sources below which are more politically driven than anything else. As if numbers without context can show people care about tracking...I am going to wager you or other relatives at some point or another have said stuff to your relatives who are aware of big tech privacy stuff. Likely some political bias involved too. At that point they don’t know anything about any of it like you yourself admit. They’re just regurgitating what you or another relative have said [a bunch of times].
The traffic light system is used in the UK to show how much sugar/salt/fat is in the product. To be honest it shocked me to see so much red for salt so it definitely was eye opening.

The issue with this, that I can now see, is that it would take government action to make this a requirement. But I can see that there would definitely be a benefit for education the customer.
There are clearly at least three problems there.

- Dependence on snake-oil software

- Dependence on a known-unreliable but very entrenched technique (lineups)

- Inhumane treatment of prisoners.

Of these, the snake-oil software is probably easiest to go after, as it's newer. I assume he's made complaints about the other stuff, too.

I mean, I'd be shocked if it had happened here, but the latter two points, unfortunately, don't sound too out-there by the standards of US law enforcement.

I say all of that, then get embarrassed at the evils my government committed over the years.
> Shouldn't Islamic countries at least do something?

I am gonna make some sweeping generalization (how could you not when speaking about 1.5 billion people) but here goes:

Not really, the Islamic world didn't care much about ISIS and the Syrian civil war, both of which killed and displaced millions of people.
The only place where Muslims pay attention to regularly and express outrage is Palestine as far as I know. I mean yes some Arab newspaper may talk about Syria or ISIS now and then, even talk badly about it, but nothing that will make people go out to the streets like Israel/Palestine does.
Muslims are much more sensitive to killings of Muslims by the West than by other empires (e.g Russia or China) since the West is perceived as a threat to their way of life and other empires aren't. Israel is part of the West in their eyes.
I am quite confident that if it were Israel or the U.S running these camps we would've heard much more about it in the Muslim world.

All Muslim-majority countries also have large Muslim minorities and are worried about charismatic leaders using their religious authority to challenge the government (e.g. Indonesia: https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/indonesia-arr... ) so they tend to be in favor of allowing only state-sanctioned forms of Islam.
My team won a hackathon even though I had worked there for 3 weeks prior to the event. Why? We fixed all kinds of obscure and low priority bugs. I felt severe impostor syndrome afterwards, thinking I did not deserve it and that I contributed very little to success. But then I reflected back on the whole event and there was so much fun! Drones flying at 60mph, people talking about their hobbies, everyone comparing their smart watch reading the next morning, trying to quantize hangover. It was a three day event where I spent around 10 hours hacking away at a computer during the first day, some 5 hours during the second day and merely an hour during the last day.

If you think they published an important story just to sell more copies... well then you'd be right, of course. That's how every single publication in the country works, if they're not scraping by on ads.

But what a silly way to look at it. "The Times and Post are publishing this Watergate thing, and they expect me to pay for a paper??? They're only publishing it to sell more copies."
No, the test is, does a public high school diploma command more pay than no high school diploma? And the answer is a resounding yes. As I have noted, multiple times, in this discourse, I think there is a role for private education, and I think it can do wonderful things. But It is a costly model whose social and economic benefits depend, in part, in exclusivity. If you hadn’t gone to your “worthless” public school, that doesn’t mean you would have suddenly gone to Dalton. It means you would, most likely, either not have gone to high school, or gone into debt to attend a more expensive school. Presumably you think your option was better? That means that public schools are a net good that should exist.

Yes. And correctly. Find any other packaging of Greenwald's important message. Surely Greenwald did not choose to release an important message only through Fox or Carlson.

Logic refers to its philosophical branch of study. The dichotomy is apt. Math is pure logic, meaning that you can be locked in a bunker for generations and keep discovering new laws. You can't do the same with physics. A mathematical or logical circle is nothing but a thought, an idea, it's perfect and has no physical equivalent. Pi is bound to that idea in any universe. The metric system is irrelevant (it mathematically cancels out).
Incidentally, I also found it more comfortable to switch over to a trackball style mouse - Logitech MX Ergo at the moment, but keen to try something even more vertical.
If it's not our fault then the problem resides in a foreign nation that we have little or no direct control over. This is unacceptable because modern journalism is focused on fighting for social justice and making the world a better place. If the US is the problem then we simply need to get more liberal democrats in office and the problem will be solved.
I'm disappointed that the highest upvoted comment on a long and thoughtful read is a critique of its introduction by a different author. The quoted text requires you to even click to read more of the introduction. It's not the substance of the piece.

An interesting idea once presented to me, was that pi is not a number, but a function for producing a number to an arbitrary precision. The same could be said for any fraction that produces an irrational.
That could be more of a problem. Regardless of the height, dumping a battery means a projectile falling, which could injure someone or cause property damage.

If fuel is dumped high enough, it pretty much evaporates and doesn't fall to the ground. If the plane is low when it dumps fuel, it can hit the ground and bystanders; but, it's not going do much, if any damage. (Assuming it doesn't hit someones barbecue or a smoker.)

The Youtuber Real-Engineering (aerospace engineering background) has a good video discussing the viability of electric aircraft. Barring some dramatic revolution in battery energy density, electric aircraft beyond a certain range are simply not-feasible. They are very feasible for short-range routes though.

A a route that serves a few hundred passengers a day is also potentially profitable for an airline while a train would likely not be unless there's existing infrastructure that can be leveraged. Also, if nobody needs that route to be served any more, just send the plane elsewhere.

Edit: I'm an idiot and missed that these are 19 seat planes. No, a train that only serves 19 people a day, one way, has a zero percent chance of being profitable, and I doubt it even makes environmental sense if you have to lay 70 miles of track to support it.

> > Drug tests generally produce false-positive results in 5% to 10% of cases and false negatives in 10% to 15% of cases, new research shows.

> Lots of innocent people were probably jailed because of that.

Efforts to increase the accuracy of the tests have downsides too, since the tests are already too sensitive. Lots of people have lost their jobs due to erroneous true positive results from eating something like a poppyseed bagel.

The test result is erroneous because no drugs were used, but a true positive because the trace amounts detected from the poppy seeds were actually present.

Improving the test can't fix this.
Yeah, and they were implying Saudi Aramco was in trouble because they only place they could place debt was in the Islamic Finance market. (I felt this implied they get terrible price for their debt there, or there's very limited liquidity) but then a couple sentences later, it's say their debt offerings were over-subscribed by a factor of 10. So why is that so bad?

Good catch too on your point that Saudi themselves are receiving the bulk of the dividends....

I did look at aramco share price the other day and it's been very flat after recovering from last march. Strange considering in the meantime oil has double/tripled in price and equity markets have roofed.

Ask HN: How to deal with a short interest span?
Hello everyone.

For most of my life, my interests have shifted relatively quickly: I spent a month or two learning thing #1 before then discovering thing #2, putting the first on hold and so on until maybe I discovered some interesting insight that got me back into #1. Learning anything else other than the current interest is a slog, but so far that worked in my favor as being a jack of all trades, master of none was beneficial as an undergraduate.

Working on my final project is making me realize the shortcomings of such approach: I keep procrastinating and sometimes missing deadlines because I get interested in orthogonal topics; I need depth of knowledge rather than breadth; learning as an end in itself makes me uninterested in practical applicability. Despite that, I don't see myself as dysfunctional, but rather just far less productive than I know can be.

I am interested into pursing an academia path, but I can't see myself as I am going through a master's, let alone a PhD. The outlook of going to the industry doesn't seem much better either.

So, cutting the chase short: how can I work on improving this situation? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Not really. I wasn't aware they had read the point where it was going to be limited again, but it was always the plan to limit it again at some point.

Of course with Teams and now Facetime essentially free (as long as at least on in the group has an iPad, iPhone or Mac) I doubt it will make that much of a difference.
There have been a number of design changes to GH the last 1-2 years that I have found lacking forethought. The new layout that wastes space, the decrease in contrast that makes the site more difficult to read, and of course the feed which has decreased in utility and increased in noise as you describe nicely here. I have started unfollowing people and unstarring projects just to reduce the noise.

They seem to have lost their way since the M$ purchase.

SEEKING FREELANCER | REMOTE (but we're in the Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA area)

Impact Upgrade is a software engineering and consulting company that solely focuses on nonprofit organizations and for-good businesses.

We're releasing a product called Nonprofit Nucleus, which is our automation engine for nonprofit processes. Think of it a little like Zapier in that it handles integrations between platforms, but the capabilities go way beyond that. We provide all the best-practice business logic for various types of flows that are often needed in nonprofit operations.

The core framework is in place, as are many of the primary use cases -- all in Java. But we have a steady stream of new features to add and/or new platforms to integrate with. I'd love having help with that. It'd be a fair amount of prototyping work, but then ultimately baking the concepts right into Nucleus and working through integration tests. We're also diving deep into scaling and hardening, so we could use help with instrumentation, fault tolerance, durable queuing, etc.

Nucleus also has a Portal/UI provided on top of it, currently built with Python, Django, and bits of JS. New features often require some front-end work if controls are needed.

In addition to all that, we continue to have unique projects pop up, usually backend heavy or full-stack web apps. However, we normally try to stick to similar stacks: Java/Kotlin, Python + Django, simple JS, PHP on rare occasions, and we're ok with node.js.

We're looking for agencies or groups that could work with us regularly. We currently have enough work that I could keep them busy on at least a part time basis.

(That's a full-time hire listing we made a while back. Although it'd obviously be different in this setup, it at least gives an idea of the types of things we're looking for: https://www.impactupgrade.com/hiring#senior-software-enginee...)
