You use bovine or porcine generally. They last about 10 years. Metal valves last 30 years but require anti coagulation. Since porcine and bovine valves are zero from à immunogenicity standpoint, they’re ideal unless we could get human ones that are plugged into the circulatory system.
Although with a pump heart you’re going to be on blood thinners anyway. And probably a few other things.

I trust the government (U.S.) more than I trust the companies. In the U.S., companies seem to have more influence on people's everyday lives than government.
> In other words, the finite nature of resources will ultimately pit one civilization against another as they all struggle to sustain their growth.

I'm not sure this constraint is so strict to force a strong competition for survival, given how vast the universe is. It seems to me this projecting our earth-bound mentality of limited resources to a whole different scale, where it may not really apply.
Posting this to HN is a stroke of genius. We all need it.
I was a bit disappointed by Cloudflare's HackerOne-based disclosure / bug bounty program.

I submitted a working proof-of-concept that would allow you to use Cloudflare's page-customizing preview function to create a Cloudflare phishing site.

The issue was closed as "accepted as the nature of the cloudflarepreview playground".

Then they went ahead and fixed the issue.

Not the end of the world, but definitely didn't inspire confidence in the program.

The initial design was quite flawed, in addition to not using sequences they should not use one DB object per organization, but rather a single object with an "organization" field.
> But as the victim, does it matter to you if a Facebook-employed stalker gets fired? They still have your data.

Yes, I think so, certainly. It matters in that the person is punished for the bad thing and no longer has access.

It’s like asking whether it matters if a rapist is jailed because the victim still has the trauma of the rape.

I think that having strict punishment is good and should be part of other controls that prevent inappropriate access in the first place.

I don't think it's true that all major breakthroughs start small, but more importantly, you have no basis for assuming this is a major breakthrough. The issues stated here are not just cost problems of scaling up, but theoretical problems of what this technology can accomplish.

The key to editions is that they don’t “drop backwards compatiblility”. We have to keep lots of things around forever! They let you opt in to small forms of backwards-incompatible changes while retaining inter—edition compatibility. This means they are backwards compatible in the strict sense of the term.
ublock origin has several "annoyances" filters you can enable in the settings, they w usually remove them.
Of course regulations are not without cost to those being regulated.

Lawmakers and voters would prefer not to have regulations; they would prefer if businesses just did the right thing. But they don't, so they have to be regulated. And nobody wants the cost of that regulation to fall on voters; so it falls on businesses.

Hey, who makes money out of these websites? Voters? Nope. Why should anyone but businesses pay the costs of regulating businesses?
Does anyone know a good api for electronic part datasheet search? For example to query a part name 'BC547' or 'CD4060' and get short description or datasheet?

My personal number one issue with Steam (aside from the obvious fact that it's still DRM at the end of the day) is that I think their family sharing feature is kind of bullshit. You cannot let somebody play a game in your library and be able to play yourself another game in that same library at the same time.

There is no good justification for this restriction and it makes that whole feature sound more like a PR move than something that was really released to help the consumer.

Insulin from animal sources is not as good as bioengineered insulin

Respectfully, we may not actually know that. It's somewhat unusual for us to go back and re-test older methods after replacing them with a new-fangled thing and sometimes things change.

Actual natural quinine is proving to be more effective at treating malaria than synthetic derivatives. Various strains of malaria have grown resistant to the synthetics while natural quinine still works.

Modern drugs tend to strip things down to a single chemical and sometimes the more complex natural remedies have benefits that we are unable to capture with our superior ability to isolate components and refine them.

“In wine there is wisdom, in beer there is freedom, in water there is bacteria.” — Ben Franklin

In the past hundred years, there are things that have fundamentally changed about the world -- such as just the simple ability to somewhat reliably deliver clean water to ordinary people in developed countries -- and we may someday be able to revive older treatment methods and improve upon them to get something better than what those once were and also better than what we currently have.

These days, people with serious conditions pretty routinely do things at home that involve sterilizing instruments and other procedures that most people imagine can only be done in a hospital setting. A modern home can have assets, such as clean running water and various kitchen appliances, that would be the envy of many a scientist not that many decades back.

I hope we find better answers for type 1 diabetes soon.

Show HN: We made a dashboard to visualize your GitHub Billing CSV
After working with GitHub Actions on multiple projects and clients we decided to build a dashboard to visualize our costs on GitHub. Just get your CSV file from the Settings and drag & drop it on the page. Nothing gets uploaded to any server, everything is just in your browser.

We had a lot of fun building it :) Hope you like it, if you have any questions feel free to ask :)

The dashboard: https://satellytes.github.io/github-billing-dashboard/

We also wrote a short blog post about why and how we build it: https://satellytes.com/blog/github-billing-dashboard/
Huh, I can't remember that [apparently fundamental] aspect of those two books. I'm going to see if I still have a copy of Forge of God on the bookshelf when I get home later, thanks.

The catalyst should also be specific. A smartphone is a very broad-spectrum catalyst that accelerates all kinds of side reactions, depleting your free energy.

You want to have specific catalysts (think enzymes), clean feedstocks, and a good supply of free energy. Also the pressure (physical/mental confinement within one area) and temperature (level of stress/energy/chaos) need to be managed.

> your moral system will be different enough from most people to make you the minority position.

I hope you’re right about this, but in my experience many folks in the US harbor a puritanical
sense of justice in which people have what they have because they deserve it (i.e. poor people are poor because they deserve to be, and wealthy people are wealthy because they deserve to be). To be clear, I vehemently disagree with this sentiment but I have encountered it enough to wonder whether it’s the majority opinion.
I guess there is also the possibility that they just changed their mind and didn't want it to be usable consumer technology at this time? Maybe i am being overly suspicious, but i guess it seems to be at least a little strange that DARPA would put someone on the task who says "it's closer than you realize" and then do a complete 180.

Also, i don't really follow the tech, but i thought i remembered seeing (on HN maybe?) positive reports of actually useful BCI prototypes. Maybe those were overblown or limited, though.

> 14nm was the first that everyone was on their own, because IBM failed their research. In the end, Samsung managed to get it done, and GloFo either failed or... didn't try really hard ? This is where I'm gonna speculate a tiny bit and be less charitable, I don't think that GloFo was sufficiently funded in terms of process development, despite their parent owner being able to.

For whatever it's worth, it feels like GloFo has had various process issues for a -long- time. While there were issues with the Bulldozer design itself from a deep pipeline perspective etc, the other factor in it's lukewarm lifetime (especially the first couple gens) was issues with GloFo's processes even back then. I know some of that was that they were trying to gear more towards bulk silicon vs CPUs but I think there were other issues too.

Quite likely, but only because the socially acceptable reasons to knock on someone's door in the middle of the night are usually something pretty bad. I wouldn't fear that they're attacking me. I would fear whatever they are waking me up to tell me about.

Low Calorie Snacks for Dieters
I was diagnosed with epilepsy as a teenager, after a single tonic–clonic seizure and a few lesser seizures. Shortly thereafter, I was placed on high doses of phenytoin, which seemingly controlled the seizures (but had various common side effects, including depression and the potential for long term harm to the cerebellum).

Prior to being on the drug, and even a few times while they were giving it to me but tinkering with the dosage, I experienced something like Glover described - it felt like I could feel seizures coming, but somehow exert will over them. I had several instances where I felt like I would have a seizure but then... did not, after focusing on it. But I didn't stay un-drugged long enough to experiment further.

I trudged along for years on the drug. It felt like I was in a haze.

One day, in my 20s, since I had no insurance and no established doctor (I had moved not long before), I ran out of the drug. It was not easy to get more quickly. I decided to try detoxing to see what happened.

Detoxing off phenytoin, I had been told, was reckless, and should require careful supervision by a physician. I was in my 20s though, and did it quickly and fully - I went cold turkey.

I had no seizures. I did, several more times, experience something like the "aura" (as it was called) - but always I seemed to "will it away." Eventually, after some months, I never felt it again.

I had always assumed that I'd just "grown out" of the disorder while taking the drug, some puberty or aging related phenomenon had simply "fixed" it, and that the rapid detox made the quazi-seizure events return (rapid detox off phenytoin can be known to create seizures, even in patients who otherwise would not need it to control a seizure disorder). I'm intrigued, but still quite skeptical, of the the notion that this is something I might potentially have accidentally enacted by sheer force of will.
>The biggest reason C++ and Java accumulate historical baggage is fixation on near 100% backwards compatibility.

Exactly! My argument is that once a language becomes "successful", whether it is designed in or not, it is an inevitability. As an example all my code/knowledge/skill of pre-C++11 is still valid with any C++ compiler toolchain today. This allows me to accumulate new knowledge at a sustainable pace as my needs and applications demand it; the language adapts to my need rather than the other way around.

Pulsating vessels are really important. There’s a bunch of evidence of the physiological benefits to having a pulse. Doesn’t mean you can’t, but it’s good for you, you evolved to have it.

I think it has a lot to do with the type of people who binge watch cable TV these days. The majority of younger people and more tech savvy people (and both of those groups tending to be more media literate people) have moved to Netflix, Hulu, Prime, HBO, etc. They don’t watch the travel channel or the history channel anymore. It’s kind of like the facebook-ification of cable content to keep viewers coming back and it seems there’s a subset of American boomers who will eagerly consume conspiracy content.

Even if they destroy them within say a thousand years, then at any given time there would be only few civilizations at the right age to be broadcasting. And not very loud at that.
