Whats so hard to understand about having a choice?
Telegram doesn't keep a plant text copy of your message if you use the secret chats. Its up to you beside the fact that its also completely voluntary to even use telegram.

>The most technical answer you can expect is "All Telegram chats use MTProto encryption. Their End-to-end encryption protocol is called MTProto. Ergo, they can't see my messages".

Sorry but that just stupid. Any user who cares can clearly read which chats are e2e encrypted and which are not. Zero technical knowledge is needed. The name of the protocol or other irrelevant info are also not needed. The reality is people often just dont care.

>Ask any user if they want privacy or no privacy. 0% will tell you, oh I explicitly want no privacy.

Again at the verge of pure stupidity. Idek what your argument is here. No one forces you or anyone to use Telegram nor is the question privacy versus no privacy. Its mostly privacy versus convenience and more likely its use-cases versus nothing. Because other solutions dont have public channels and public groups and other telegram features people want. And "privacy" is meaningless for stuff mean to be public. Anonymity would be the next best thing and Telegram gives that although they ofc know who posts on a channel since there is no feasible way to change that. They have to know who's responsible for publicly posted content.

If you dont want or need any of that dont use it, its that simple.
It made me physically ill to see the amount of perfectly serviceable hardware they wantonly destroyed in the video.

Maybe they salvaged parts and only destroyed cases to make a show of things?

Haha, at any rate, my reaction surprised me.
A relative is a professional-ish cook; not a chef, but she writes Italian cook books and runs cooking classes from her home kitchen. She utterly loves her induction stove and finds it perfect for cooking Italian dishes.
Carrier bought phones except iphones. I think that was the point the OP was making; you can walk into a carrier store and buy an iphone from them, and it's the same phone you'd get from Apple, just with the carrier sim already included. But any Android phone you buy from the carrier is going to come with a whole lotta cruft.

None of that applies if you buy a phone separately from the carrier (so Google phones, or OnePlus, or similar), but most of those also make arrangements with the carriers, I think, to recognize the phone before sale (at least, my carrier recognized both my Pixel and OnePlus devices at the times I had them).
How about a certified B Corp? IANAL, but it should allow you more commercial freedom, but still align with your goals?
I agree that Launch HNs are too long-winded. I think they should be short, and expounding on things should be done in the comments through answering questions.
How on earth does it draw on pluralism when it prescribes socialism and the use of solar energy?

In anarchocapitalism you're free to own and run your solar powered city. And it can be socialist, too. That's pluralism.

In this version only post-capitalistic, solar-powered cities would be permitted. And we'd have to have One Solar Government's employees have free access to everyone's property so that counter revolutionary elements that sustain themselves with fossil fuels can be rooted out.

As Lord Acton said:

> Socialism ... requires the strongest execution of power – power sufficient to interfere with property.
If I'm not mistaken California has made it law that your HOA simply cannot stop you from having solar if you want it. Hard to imagine Texas doing that.
Enough, but is it easier than simple Docker setup is different.
I think the article has it backwards. The Web is a dead end. It's too far gone, nothing left to save. The internet, on the other hand, has a lot of flexibility and potential left, if only it could be allowed to grow and flourish beyond the needs of the Web.
>Facebook should be forced

I would consider this sentiment more absurd and dystopian than Facebook freely removing content from its own website.
It's not "we know nothing." It's "we have low confidence in this thing." Which is exactly what you should be willing to say if you want an accurate view of the world. You can take action of knowing something with low confidence, you just make sure it's not too extreme, and it's not incompatible with being wrong.
Wow thanks for this link. I’m familiar with John baez’s writings on physics and category theory, I didn’t realize how deep he went into climate change though.

Anyway after reading this I think I can answer my original questions a bit: Yes increased plant growth is a critical and part of climate change models. IPCC is predicting an increase of 6G tons of carbon consumed by plants by 2050 and without this we could not hit our carbon goals. Hopefully this research shows that our models are not overestimating here.
I don't understand why people associate Roadside Picnic with Chernobyl and what happenned there..

Is it only because of the game and its similarities to both novel and movie?
Maybe you'll get hired/kidnapped by the NSA. But seriously, this isn't going to happen, it's not been solved despite the best brains on the planet trying for decades.
Recently I visited the Apple store and compared the latest 11 inch iPad Air (A14 processor) and iPad Pro (M1 processor) models side-by-side. I loaded up Apple’s website in Safari and scrolled. The Pro is noticeably butter-smooth, while the Air stutters. My iPhone also stutters in the same way, but it’s never bothered me before. It’s only after looking at the performance of the M1-driven iPad Pro that I knew to look for it. And I previously had a similar experience noticing how much smoother my iPhone was than my old Android phones!

I don’t know for sure the processor is the difference, this is just a report of my observations.

Most solar installs are grid tied and add no emergency redundancy.
I’m not poor. I make 120-150k a year depending on the year and my wife works, too. Just living below my means for a variety of reasons; anyone can do it.

That is the point of my post. It’s really not that hard to consume less if it is important to you.
At the same time there's a huge shortage of residential space, where so many more people now work. Clearly mass conversion is necessary. I wonder if the city government can get out of the way of that.
Some Jews lived in Arab/Muslim/Persian places before being expelled from Spain so they don't originate from Spain. I think most of them didn't actually.
Ask HN: How difficult would it be to produce a “synchronous” fork of Node.js?
There are times you want asynchronous behaviour, and times you don't.

Is there some part of the Node.js "event loop" where you could make a relatively small change that would mean all function calls were blocking rather than non-blocking?

Such that, if you wanted to run a node script from the command line, for example, you would only be able to achieve "concurrency" by starting more than one process?

There's no requirement to use physics in Grid, just as there's no requirement to use physics in LÖVE, which is what the engine is built on.

We build the game engine from this approach because most games want "maps," and "entities."

We use a Quake-style architecture because even if you're rebuilding a 2D version of Tabletop Simulator, you're going to want a map and entities.

We'd rather have a one-size fits all solution (worked for Quake and Source pretty well) versus a Unity/Unreal style flashy game engine where you're suckered into still doing all the work yourself, but hey PBR looks good.
I used Racket for bioinformatics research maybe 8 years ago a big hospital. Never seen it used outside of academia though really.
I'm pretty sure that some of the more outlandish claims of Everett (the big Piraha guy) have been cut down to size by his peers. Especially that boo-ha-ha over the Piraha's lack of recursion. If you're interested I have a few articles saved.

As for the popularity of linguistic determinism, who knows. I wouldn't trust a linguist who took the strong Sapir-Wharf hypothesis seriously.
Every other exploit and virus is used by impatient idiots. NSO knows how to stockpile exploits.

I've been there done that. It's how we pretty much kept Wii homebrew available consistently throughout the console's life. We had the next exploit ready before Nintendo patched the current one.

Apple isn't involved. NSO are just good at their job.
My personal view is that the government should never be able to profit from prosecuting a crime. Law enforcement should never be a money making venture, and it would never be possible to implement a system that overcomes the perverse incentives so long as it is.

I don't think the financial disincentive is necessarily corrupt, in the form of fines or asset forfeiture, but I think that they should never be allowed to contribute to government revenue in any way.

If the government has any incentive to prosecute somebody, other than a well founded and provable basis for believing they committed a crime, then the justice system just becomes a weapon to turn against the citizens it's supposed to be protecting. If the government has a financial incentive to prosecute certain crimes over others, then how the law is enforced is not going to align with community needs. For instance, that's why there's never enough police to attend burglaries, but always enough police for handing out speeding tickets.
I was pretty against the idea, then I heard the sporkful on why we like gas ranges, and a review of induction. Maybe it’s worth a test drive.

Interesting. How does this compare to lnav? https://lnav.org/
It's a violation of federal regulations to store more than 2lbs of propane inside living spaces/kitchens. Those big 20lbs are supposed to be stored in garages/outside.

Obviously, people break that all the time, but a compromise that requires people to do so seems bad.

You can run multiple monitors on an m1 with a DisplayPort hub. (not relevant to the point about the number of usb-c ports of course, since you're plugging into the hub anyways)
>This has nothing to do with AI being unreliable

This has everything to do with AI being unreliable. AI is unreliable. It was unreliable yet again here. Anyone relying on AI as the evidence in a prosecution needs to have their faces rubbed in the ignorance. AI is as unreliable as any human being. In fact, it is more unreliable because people understand the limits of the reliability of humans and look for corroboration and examine the evidence with a mind on its potential shortcomings. Yet there is still this pervasive and pernicious belief that "Computers don't lie" which is completely and utterly false and worth repeating often, with emphasis until it is part of human collective understanding of the world to the same degree that water is wet.

"Computer says x" by itself counts for nothing. Anyone presenting evidence like that by alone should be presenting a huge red flag that something nasty is going on, via either malice or sheer incompetence.
Odds are the technical information about the recording setup is fairly constant, and thus doesn't require much manual input, nor storage space to consume.

They've also mentioned that always knowing the exact technical setup can help track down problems, which reduces the chances of loss as things are archived down the road.

> Hmmm, seems like a lot of people involved in this case should be fired, including the Apple Employees, SIS Employees and Police officers, reguardless of whatever other outcomes there are.

How might a government systematically disincentivize this sort of malicious and negligent behavior without it backfiring? And why hasn't it happened already?

I imagine the matter has been thoroughly explored by legal scholars, but I'm having trouble finding publications. Can someone point me in the right direction?

You can use a DisplayPort hub to run multiple monitors.
For the table you have 3 integer rows and a char(6) row. Taking integer as 32 bit that is a total of 18 bytes of data per row.

At billion rows, that is 18GB of data. With some overhead for storing page info, let’s call it 20GB flat.

A modern SSD can deliver ~500MB/s write speed. That means writing 20GB of data can be done in 40 seconds.

Therefore a billion rows in a minute is quite plausible. At-least not bottlenecked by disk speed (if we can saturate disk).
That's not because of the processor. It's because the newest iPad Pro has a 120hz display and the other devices that you were comparing to have a 60hz display.
M1 is a complete SOC and discrete nvidia graphics from nvidia were so bad that Apple switched to AMD permanently.
Having the government writing censorship rules sounds absolutely dystopian to me.

There are plenty of ways to get information on the internet - just because Facebook says "no porn" doesn't mean you can't get porn on the internet, you know?

But there's only one government (per country, of course). If your government says no porn... What then?
Exactly. Quicksort, also, isn't the crux of the article. Both are ways to sample how the CPU behaves. That is why the quicksort is also not production-grade. If it were more complicated, it would teach us less.
Who Authorized America's Wars?
Because people are reading this excerpt from the article without reading the paper itself, this isn't a self-survey. The survey itself is a 'manipulation'. (But I won't comment on the reproducability or value of this methodology)

> This left us with a final sample of 84 dyads, randomly assigned to either the Scarcity (n=42) or Control (n=42) conditions. Dyads across conditions did not differ in age, child or caregiver sex, caregiver education, or family income

> The caregiver and child were seated across from one another at a table. The child completed an unrelated experiment with the researcher, while the caregiver completed the Scarcity or Control manipulation survey on a tablet. When the caregiver had finished, the researcher left the room under the guise of loading a second survey onto the iPad, leaving the caregiver and child alone with a toy the experimenter happened to offer as she left. A video camera and/or tape recorder recorded their interactions.

And there was also a second experiment:

> The second experiment used [..] tiny “talk pedometer” devices worn by children that record their conversations and count the words they hear and say.

> [..] analyses revealed that parents engaged in fewer conversational turns with their children at the month’s end, a time that typically coincides with money being tight
I switched from a 16" Pro with 32GB of RAM to a 16GB M1 Air - I really didn't notice the difference, even though I frequently run some memory hogs (Electron apps, Chrome, multiple Docker containers)
A pretty great tech talk by Brian Nigito of Jane Street [2017] - a quantitative trading firm which also provides an Electronic Trading Platform/Exchange - about how to take advantage of existing network technologies (multicast) and single-purpose, deterministic, application architectures to build a distributed, scalable, and reliable order entry, validation, and matching engine.
Exactly. Only a gullible person would think so.
In Marin County, 10 years ago, we had Yarbirds, Fairfax Hardware, and a bunch of other hardware stores.

They just couldn't compete with HD prices.

Oh yea----while the stores slowly closed, HD prices went up.

They are not the cheapest anymore.

(I guess this is the new/old business model? Open big, and offer rock bottom prices, with a country flair. (HD used to hire, and pay for trade specialists to help the customers. They used to pay almost a living wage. The employees were content, and somewhat friendly.).

Get the dupes used to your fantastic store/prices, and watch the competition put up Closing Sales signs.

Then raise the prices yearly.

Mr. Gekko it's brilliant.
Docker isn't strictly needed, but learning 12factor (or something like newer one?) before write code would make it futureproof a bit.
I only really use 2 monitors in unreal engine. The ui just is too cramped for a single monitor, you really need both

I've been having this discussion a lot lately. Ok, let's say a crime occured and you have a hard time identifying the suspect. A colleague of yours in the precinct is walking over and sees the picture on your screen. "Wait a minute, that face looks familiar." He goes to the database and indeed sees a face that looks close enough. Now what is the next step? You don't toss the person in the police van and celebrate the conviction. Instead, you investigate.

"Where we're you that evening? do you own a outfit matching the suspect? Etc." This kid would have been quickly cleared. It's already terrifying to be questioned by the police when you are innocent. How do you think he felt when they said they had video evidence of him shoplifting. They already made up their mind.

Now replace your colleagues with an AI. Simply because you have a match does not mean you have the suspect. Just over a year ago we were discussing the same issue: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23628394
No, I'm not confusing CO for CO2.

Yes, I do have sources that human mental performance suffers at elevated CO2 levels (800-1000ppm, not uncommon in buildings... but could be the CO2 level outdoors and even if it's not quite that high, it'll be harder and harder to keep building CO2 levels below that as external CO2 levels increase). https://www.nature.com/articles/s41370-018-0055-8

https://ehp.niehs.nih.gov/doi/10.1289/ehp.1510037

Current levels aren't really problematic except in stuffy buildings. But if we don't stop changing the chemistry of the atmosphere, it becomes a problem.

I know this is an unusual view, and I'm not endorsing it for others, but please delete my data. I want to have as little as possible. Obviously, if it's something precious and needs saving, do the due diligence of backups and hard copies when applicable. But I fear becoming a digital hoarder. I fear it becoming a cross to bear. Not to mention, the less you keep, the less you stand to lose.
Was going great, well integrated into daily and/or weekly life. Could go on fun binges and remind myself what too much was like every once in a while and have a silly 'nap day', then not do that again for a while.

Then, I had a kid. I'll probably pick it up again when the little knee biter is a bit more independent.

Overall I feel I made the right move in terms of drug of choice. Infinite LD-50, tame overdose curve, minimal withdrawal symptoms (heck sometimes I even forgot to smoke/vape/edible for weeks at a time). And thankfully I never got the anxiety or paranoia some complain about, much. All I needed to do was watch the dose, the set and setting.
I've always thought a big part of the problem wasn't the amount of this or that kind of space but the ratio.

SF has way too much commercial space for the amount of residential space it has.

As opposed to many others, I'm fine with residents deciding they don't want to change their city by allowing high density residential... however there's a simple price to pay: no high density commercial.

It is one of those fundamental things which should be mandated statewide, the ratios of commercial to residential should be within bounds for each municipality, and the abundance of some should drive prices crazy low and crazy high in some places so that these disparities tend to correct themselves.

Instead there are policies that seem exclusively tailored to only do the crazy high pricing part.

(and while we're at it, vacancy needs to be taxed to further drive the point home. if you won't lower your prices enough to get occupied, prepare to subsidize those who do)
In San Francisco you could charge a lot for a weird deep narrow loft, especially compared to the income on vacant office space.

And many developers would happily knock down an office building and rebuild an apartment complex, if only they could get past the red tape.

You may be right, but could your bias towards those who don't use Standard English (Orthography) be influencing your judgement of their reasoning skills? I wonder what a study comparing the reasoning skills of a user of SE communication with those of a vernacular or ill-educated user would show if the argument were kept the same.
