In Rural/cold areas, you might not be able to go full electric. CNG is an option in those cases though.

Not a perfect solution but sometimes perfect is the enemy of good.
It's moderation when it's content I don't like. It's censorship when it's content I do like. Period. That's how it's treated in the public discourse. Accept this, and let's build upon it.
What does it matter what you support though? Case in point: twitter, fb, reddit, so on
I agree. I expect the west to call it out. I also expect the Muslim world to call them out. They are currently failing to walk the walk.
Well, there has been a lot of 'skepticism' that amounts to cherry picking whatever facts allow people to believe what they please. I think the fact remains that COVID was and is extraordinarily dangerous, and that's evidenced by the enormous casualty figures, even in countries that were supposed to be well prepared.

I think there's a simple difference in scale between this other events, that makes it hard to assimilate - COVID was, statistically, the most deadly single natural disaster to happen to my country (the UK) in a century. That's hard to relate to, hard to make policy about, hard to put in perspective. Bear in mind the last pandemic (Spanish Flu) was before antibiotics, before oxygen, before all of the techniques that made COVID something you can treat to some degree of success in a hospital.

It has been one since arguably 2001, probably earlier. It's just the populace wasn't aware we were fighting it.
While Monodraw seems to have business related features I feel the need to mention "Mœbius ANSI Art Editor"[0] a cross platform open source alternative.

Moebius is a new ANSI and ASCII Editor for MacOS, Windows, and Linux.

With a neat Moebius Server feature that allows collaboration by multiple users on the same canvas through a server instance.

I agree with the paragraph around technical difference versus todays choices and hope cost becomes a differentiator, in this case. However once you go beyond a single core and few gigs RAM, surely its a hard differentiator to achieve, as we're talking raw computing power and cost to supply.
Yes, agreed. The choking bureaucracy has the unintended consequence of lowering risk - if its very time consuming to build thing, you build less things that break over time, and rely on old things that have worked for a long time.
You can google all the stats I provided, just like I can google all the no-citation stats you provided.

Yup! I’m a big fan of contraception and options for women. That will probably start to bring the global population down slowly within about a hundred years. But we have less than thirty years to fix the climate problem.

Per-person carbon emissions in the developing world are <1 ton per year. For Europe, China, India its 5-10 tons per year. Which is bad enough. For the United States, it’s TWENTY TONS PER PERSON PER YEAR.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_carbon_...

That isn’t because we for some reason have worse power plants or worse ways of making steel. It’s because we eat too much; we drive too much, in cars that are too big; we use too much heat and air-conditioning, in houses that, in spite of what you keep saying, are the largest in the world, and getting bigger every decade (you can google this too). We fly too much, we buy too much, we use too much, we consume more than literally any other people on the planet, and if we don’t stop, we are going to kill everyone, ourselves included.

To put this another way, if every American started living, not even like people in Kenya, but like people in France, that would take 3 gigatons off of global annual emissions. Holy shit.

Company’s Post-Pandemic Work Policy, Explained
A few weeks ago I started unplugging my internet when I go to bed, so it's off when I wake up. Then I work for 2 or 3 hours before plugging it back in. I use DevDocs.io, which has an offline feature, to look up standard library stuff.

I actually delay going online for as long as possible because I know productivity will drop off a cliff once I reconnect.

This is the most productive I've been in my life, by quite a wide margin.
> There is an incredible power in simply pouring a little time into something every day over a long period of time. It feels like a superpower when you see it start compounding.

There is an amazing book called The Slight Edge which is based on this very principal and it can really change your life. Here is a small excerpt from it that really resonated with me:

It sure would be nice if, somehow, you could do something dramatic. If you just wake up tomorrow and have it all turned around—snap your fingers and change it. That might happen, in a movie.

But this is your life. What can you do? What happens if you add one small, simple, positive action to the success side?

Nothing you can see. What happens if you add one more? Nothing you can see. What happens if you keep adding one more, and one more, and one more, and one more ...
Before too long, you see the scales shift, ever so slightly. And then again. And eventually, that heavy - failure side starts to lift, and lift, and lift ... and the scales start swinging your way.

No matter how much negative weight from the past is on the other side, just by adding those little grams of success, one at a time (and by not adding more weight to the failure side), you will eventually and inevitably begin to shift the scales in your favor.

The Slight Edge is about your awareness. It is about you making the right choices, the choices that serve you and empower you, starting right now and continuing for the rest of your life, and learning to make them effortlessly.

It's not a question of your mood or your feelings. And it's not a question of will power. It's a question of simply knowing.

Simple things you do every day, in fact. Or, as the case may be, don't do every day. Time will be your friend or your enemy; it will promote you or expose you. It's entirely up to you.
If you're doing the simple disciplines, time will promote you. If you're doing the few simple errors in judgment, time will expose you, no matter how well you appear to be doing right now.
I think I agree with you. But I also agree with enumjorge when he says that we need to acknowledge that the unchecked spread of disinformation is a real problem. Worse, it can be driven by malice in a coordinated campaign. And it's a real problem that, when someone gets to define and censor disinformation, then they define disinformation, and they may be biased (or worse, part of a coordinated campaign).

I don't have an answer. But we can't find a workable answer without recognizing both sides of the problem.
I don't know if I care about collaboration or the division into blocks, but there is something to be said about how inputting text into a terminal is a completely different mode of operation. I'm alright at getting around in a text editor with system-level keyboard shortcuts, but as soon as I'm typing into a terminal input buffer I feel like I'm in a weird uncanny valley version of typing. Like how I can't do shift + left/right to highlight text and instead it throws in some hexidecimal number that I then have to delete.
First there's the legal set of things: doxxing, child porn, copyright violations, revenge porn, etc.

Then there are softer aspects: disinformation, threats, abusive language that are often easier to block than for the company or for society to 'climb back out of' or address post-facto.

Twitter and other platforms are built for viral marketing -- not all content should have the privilege of viral marketing.
Then as a product, Twitter and others might want to think about the minimum experience level. What kind of demographics are going to be present over time, if every woman-identifying account, if they peek at the default-moderated content, see 1000s of abusive and hostile tweets directed at them?
We used to call this going to church. When literally everyone of all political stripes attended the same churches, going to a church potluck was basically being paired randomly.

However large political factions have made church membership out to be undesirable.

We are reaping the rewards.

I realized yesterday reading about cornel west, that even though I disagree with his politics, I see from his Christianity we have the same concerns, and values. I can't honestly say that about other people
A small city would be essentially destroying its own airport by authorizing a convenient rail connection to a nearby bigger city’s airport.

Example: there is a train between Milwaukee and Chicago and it stops at MKE, but it will never stop at O’Hare, because that would be the end of MKE.

Technically you can take the Blue Line from O’Hare to downtown, making dozens of local stops, and then walk a few blocks with your luggage to Union Station, but by the time you get downtown you could be in Milwaukee already on a connecting flight. And those few outdoor blocks are a big deal in winter, dragging soft sided luggage through the slush is not fun.
I'm a banking attorney and I think you've hit the nail on the head. Vendor management is popular with regulators, particularly with respect to info sec and data privacy, and the navigating the contractual responsibilities can quickly become burdensome.

Getting the lawyers on both sides to agree to language for the ongoing certification(s) that will also satisfy the internal auditors, the outside auditors, the regulators... suddenly something that sounded simple when the contract was signed takes several meetings and a lot of back and forth.
Ask HN: Looking for the good project/todo management software, even obscure ones
I like the databaseless idea of todo.txt but it's very complicated to manage projects with complex tasks. Only easy todos like "walk with a dog" or "read a book". I like taskwarrior and dstask as proof of concept, but come on, to add a task with needed tags and parent I need to write literally five times as much as task is. I don't have such a good memory to remember all the tags and flags that are out there. I like Org-Mode, but I'm Vim user (un)fortunately.

So please, post here task/project/todo management software that you found really nice and useful. That have tags, maybe trees, maybe something else. CLI, TUI or GUI.
Not to take away from your point, but from what I have read, the Grand Canyon was most likely not formed by little drops of water, but instead by occasional torrents of water. There is ~70 feet of boulders and detritus at the bottom of the Colorado River. Only a flood powerful enough to get all that material moving at once will erode the bottom of the river bed and carve the canyon deeper. The slopes and walls probably erode more continually though.

And in geological time, an every-10,000-year event may as well be like every day to us.
Looks quite nice. A few questions:

* How do you expect to make money from developers using Warp?

* What's the source code license?

* Where's the source code?
From an NSA store near you.
Wow, talk about an undiscoverable feature! There should be a halo or '!' above their heads like there would be in a game. Simple UX change to indicate that this element can be interacted with.
Is time to hire a problem companies want to solve? If a company is hiring a lot of people, that might be quantifiable but if its a couple hires per quarter then maybe this isn't a problem a company needs help with.

Maybe the vetting process needs more attention since if I'm using a third party to help with hiring, I want some amount of filtering to happen. Testimonials from hiring companies might help too.
From the site: "Each of the 10,000 unique NFTs corresponds to an original work on paper by Damien Hirst. The collector has to decide between the digital NFT or the physical artwork, but can not keep both. This exchange is a one-way process, so choose carefully.
Two months after the NFTs are allocated, collectors will get the opportunity to exchange the NFT for the physical artwork. You have until 3pm BST 27 July 2022 to decide to keep either the digital NFT or the physical artwork. Similarly, if you have exchanged it in that period, the NFT will have been destroyed.
There will be an exhibition of the artworks before they are ultimately destroyed."
Same thing happened to Amex
I don't see how a startup like Theranos, real or not, could succeed without venture capital. You can't iterate your way to a medical device and casually fail along the way with paying customers.
Companies that aren't capital intensive (most software companies) don't need VC funding. I'm the cofounder of Eureka Surveys (eurekasurveys.com). We're based out of Utah, bootstrapped, and have been profitable since our inception. Retaining 100% control of the company has been invaluable to our success - not needing to become a unicorn in X years is a competitive advantage.
> This leads to thirty dingdingding notifications

I've disabled all notifications, save for blinking LED. So if I happen to look at my phone - I will see that there are some unread notifications, but other than that - no sounds, no vibrations, I don't need this distraction in my life.

I've only enabled them for a couple of important contacts. Now I can even tell from whom the message is, just by the sound of the notification.
It's a colorful stall, that's for sure.

Does he make the pencils there?

I can't read the writing in the photos but it looks like there are no prices (I don't see any numbers). Can someone who is able to read this chime in?
A project like this will only solve maybe ~25% of the gripes you just mentioned, and it certainly won't improve the current interop between terminals. I share your frustration with how archaic it can seem sometimes, but terminals will persist until we stop using hardware that accommodates them. I'd rather see a terminal that embraces these esoteric design flaws, finally providing a reliable cross-platform terminal. Rust would have been the perfect language for that, but it seems like the current devs don't really consider compatibility a priority.
Not to be confused with the other big warp rust project, https://github.com/seanmonstar/warp/

Presenting the facts as they are understood is not alarmist. There are many prominent climate scientists who feel the evidence implies that carbon neutrality by 2030 is the only way to prevent the effects of global warming from hitting a positive feedback loop that can't be stopped.

Look how quickly climate change has escalated in even the past five years. What's going to happen when temperatures in the American breadbasket hit the temperatures we are seeing in the west coast, but sustain them throughout the growing season? What if that happens by 2024?

We really need to be prepared for the fact that nature might force our hand on a much shorter timeline than 2030.

Imagine the reaction you'd have if you could tell your 2016-self about how the past year has been. Now imagine we continue on the same course for the next five years.
Not not at all. Again, I know this sound snake-oil-esq but it feels "regenerative" - I thought it was just a pain killer (and hey, better than tylenol etc even if it is) at the start, but the more I used it and stretched, the less I needed it and the longer the pain was gone, after I couple months, I only need it every few weeks. (28/yr through 33 was just continual pain because of computer work.) I get a good amount rubbed in and really really push and stretch deep in between the joints into the wrist, working it in till the muscles are very relaxed and supple, then just the usual wrist stretching/movements you'd expect. To an extent everything is a band-aid I suppose, damage is done, but this genuinely seem to do more than just kill the pain. The only thing I'd say about CBD/THC cream is I think that the plant they use to make it probably matters a lot, and so finding one that works for you could be needle in the haystack, this one is great for me.
So a 99% success rate then!
Fascinating blog post. Satellite internet seems just as valuable to FB as Amzn I wonder why they’d spin it off when they have so many other projects that are less useful
Not every form of abuse or deceipt or misbehavior is gaslighting.
When are you going to be on other platforms?
Hmm, not sure what the narrative is here. You scout for startups that have managed to succeed on their own and then convince them to accept investments? OK, but… you aren’t really part of their success then, right? What did your investment enable the startups to do that they couldn’t otherwise?
Yes, the stories are real.

They're not exclusive to the US, of course. But in the US, such detentions, or asphixiations, or shootings, or deprivations of property ("civil forfeiture") by law enforcement and/or under colour of law, are why the streets have been in rightful protest and upheaval for much of the past decade.

Those protests are a continuation of those of a half century ago and more, many based on the broken promises of the civil rights reforms of the 1960s.

And whilst the victims of such actions are overwhelmingly traditional minority populations, the abuses are not exclusive to them. Anyone poor or othered is particularly vulnerable. Even city councilmembers, state representatives, congressional representatives, and senators have been beaten, detained, or denied boarding privileges on flights due to Kafkaesque procedures and brutish enforcement.
I think in this quantity is important, you’ll learn how long to boil/cook/bake/sauté/season to perfection with trial and error. You’ll also learn what you like, it’s pretty personal. I liked Jamie Oliver’s “in 15 minutes” book, I never finished any in 15 minutes and I changed the recipes a lot but there are a lot of simple tasteful things in there. Also on his website. And you learn techniques that make you faster/more efficient.
When I posted the above last night, I sat there wondering whether I could Just Transition and somehow get a job in this field (scuse the pun) and had an idle fantasisation about the possibilities, but sadly my skillsets are uselessly-irrelevant in this domain, and I'm a bit too old and poor to make the swing.

Reality's a bitch, sometimes. Often.
If only the website was as blazingly fast as the terminal claims to be!

It scrolls at 2 fps.
You know what they say- the last 20% of the problem is 80% of the effort. I think that these percentages probably understate things, but the point is that getting something to be mostly functional in ideal circumstances really isn't much of an achievement.
> The most successful global tech bets are efficient and practical startups

No? I mean, it depends on your notion of success, maybe?

The article does nothing to prove the headline and talks only about an obscure Romanian company.

In Spain where I live - traditionally a venture capital backwater - "successful" startups in the last couple of years have been backed by eye-watering amounts of capital compared to the old standards.

Zero-interest rates and the resulting phenomenon of "money not knowing where it can drop dead" is catching up outside the US as opportunities become saturated there and investors are lured to emerging venture markets.

Lot's of "just do this" comments in here. If its as easy as you think it is, then winning the grand prize should be pretty easy.

Do the math, grab an investor and go get $100M.

"Just plant trees." Okay do the math on how many trees you need. Figure out how your going to build a program to get that many trees planted. What incentives, partnership, funding do you need. How will it scale to the amount needed. What will the full lifecycle look like.

"Just improve soil." Okay do the math on that. What's the timeframe for return on investment. What do the logistics look like for producing soil in huge quantities and deploying it where needed. How do we then use that soil to grow plants that sequester carbon.

90% of the comments in here are just the "middle-brow dismissal" of climate change of all things. As if we can "just do X" to solve it and everyone else is an idiot.

It's a hard problem, especially because part of the problem is determining how to actually implement and incentivize the population to do it. You can't just ignore that part, or just throw up your hands "people are stupid so we're fucked." Solving the incentive problem is actually part of the problem. Any solution that ends with "people just need to learn to do/value X" is dead in the water. You can start with "people just need to learn to do/value X" but you need to end with a plan on how you will bring about that change in mentality/incentive.
True but Pi (mathematical constant Pi) isn't necessarily the ratio between the circumference and the diameter in those spaces.
I think it is a great idea, but if you want to reward a more sane investing strategy (ie low-cost broad index funds) you could maybe accelerate historical or simulated data and anonymize the ticker IDs?

Obviously there will probably be one lucky YOLO player but you could rank everyone and also factor in risk-adjusted returns.
> The surprising thing about so many of the artists is that they only work 2 or 3 hours per day, then spend the rest of the day walking around, socializing, etc. But they consistently show up and put in the work and it adds up to some amazing things over time.

Artists don't have stand ups, team meetings, planning sessions, one-on-ones, commutes and whatever other office distractions to deal with though. I suppose figuring out how to survive as an artist is distraction enough.
The terminal itself is totally free

We may add paid features for enterprises around collaboration, and other things on the server that would cost us money to support.
Does is rely on OpenGL drivers to compile? (whenever its available as OSS). An option to compile it by disabling any hardware acceleration (kitty does require openGL I think) and disabling fancy animations/effects would be great for getting this installed at my workplace. I currently use an not-so-recent version of konsole and its a pain to customize. Kitty, which I on my personal machine is pretty good for customizations and is desktop agnostic too.

Zach, looks like a cool product! How would you say this differentiates itself from Teleport Ssh? I can see at a glance there this is written in Rust (vs Golang) and seems to be based on being a full terminal (vs being an application run on the terminal).
