How to Take Care of Leather Accessories -Leather Shoes – Bags and Wallets
Leather is a premium-class material that oozes sophistication. At the same time, it could look robust and ragtag for a rough and tough look. What does it mean? It means that the look of the leather depends on your choice.
The cost of lithium-ion batteries has dropped 97% over the past three decades. It's been a steady improvement and the trend is expected to continue.

It looks like cost parity with ICEs will happen around 2023.

Hydrogen is likely to be better for some applications though, like long-haul jets.
>Those newer languages will earn their share of historical baggage in time.

For some reason this truth seems to escape most new language fanboys, in particular; the Rust crowd on HN.
They're serving you a web-page regardless. It probably isn't the data as much as they don't want to run afoul of EU law.

Breaking the law is a generally considered a big mistake and regardless of the stereotyping about businesses they can be pretty timid when dealing with governments.
But does it? As far as I know the US has way worse unemployment numbers than Europe, yet Europe mostly enforces a proper minimal wage.
Amen. If a court in the EU fines the Bozeman Daily Chronicle, what is stopping the Chronicle from replying, "lol ok." and continuing to not care?
This should become a meme so that those companies will think twice in using that phrasing.
Including your comment, I suppose? ;)
>It seems like battery production and materials is not getting much cheaper

It might seem that way but they are.
Cognitive Architecture, 2nd edition, is out
Battery production is definitely getting cheaper per unit capacity? I haven't seen any evidence in the other direction.

The hydrogen storage solution remains inadequate and does not seem to be improving at the same rate. There's also the "unclean hydrogen" problem: at the moment, if you go out and buy it, there's a very good chance it will have been made from natural gas with the CO2 dumped into the atmosphere. At that point you might as well use existing LNG/CNG cars.

> History is not littered with civilizations that got universal computation and computers to execute them.

All countries have this now. How's this relevant to the point that less complacent countries will eclipse more complacent ones?
I feel the urge to play Factorio :-)
I'm betting for anything bigger than a family vehicle to end up being hydrogen just cause the recharge times, weight restrictions, and other factors such as costs
All civilizations are very different than others before. I am not convinced that universal computation is enough of a game changer to make us different enough. Older civs each had access to tech the ones before hadn't. The one constant is human behaviour.
You have an idea you can’t explain to investors. How likely is it that you can explain it to your employees then?

Here is an idea. Take debt on CC or a line of mortgage. Pay a contractor or two for a while to develop the product a bit and see how it goes.

Successful founders are great communicators. If you aren’t one, it’s unlikely you will make it to a senior position - whether it’s your own venture or not.

Signal you are looking to sell your house is on when investors tell you - “I understand what you’re building. It’s great. You even have customers MOUs signed and maybe even have paying customers, but I can’t fund you because market size is too small. Good luck.”
C++ is moving a bit fast these days, isn't it? What I really like(d?) about systems programming and C++ is that the time invested accumulates and one realizes that they can achieve mastery or something close to it. If you look at JS for example, it's like starting over every 2 years.
The high level description sounds a bit like Clojure...? Both sound very tied to the datastructures and built in algorithms provided. As long as your problem maps well to the built in tool it's very terse (in a very good way!). I find this makes coding much more productive. Most languages avoid committing that way

Would be curious to hear from someone's that's used both
The set of positive integers starts {1, 2, 3, …} and there are no positive integers smaller than 1. On the other hand the set of positive real numbers has no smallest element, since for any positive real number x, the number x/2 is smaller and still a positive real. It’s not that the reals are unorderable (they are most certainly ordered), it’s that certain subsets of the reals do not necessarily contain a minimum/maximum.
That just seems like a generally bad advice. It's true that we can't know everything but we usually kinda know something and from that we can act.
> "but Tesla gave away their patents to help humanity." (...) "Change the world" (...)

They did, tho.

They've pretty much forced the worldwide electrification of cars to happen, in spite of the market wanted. That's a huge help for humanity and a big change to the world.

It's funny you should become skeptical over the rare case where pretentious slogans were actually true.
“We care about your privacy.” is also a real joker. Those boxes often provide no “opt-out all” button and force you to “object” to “legitimate interests” one-by-one even if you do “opt-out”.
It’s a bit silly because serving the content without cookies doesn’t cost more than not serving anything. It’s not like a restaurant where serving a steak means you now have one less steak, it’s just data that you can copy as much as you want.

1ml has 100 units. You basically take your weight in kg in units per day. However if you are overweight or sick you need more because of insulin resistance.

One pen has 3ml in it. So if you weigh 70 kg, you go through one vial in 3-4 days.
The incomprehension with his death for me was what he came from in his 40s and his daughter. I was depressed and addicted most of my 20s and Bourdain was like some kind of mythical hero in that regard. You could still be a junkie in your 40s and soar to having beers with Obama.

His death still worries me in a sense for my own life that I still want to do a ton with my life but I don't want to do quite everything. There needs to always be something to dream about, something needs to be left unfulfilled.

I can completely get for Bourdain that at the end there was no fix left. He had literally done everything in his life possible to do. What could he possibly dream about at the end? I am sure that is a much darker place then what it would seem on the surface. "Instead of killing myself, I can do anything so I should do X." He literally ran X dry.
Best quote so far:

> If we have infinitely many pairs of shoes we don’t need the axiom of choice, since we can just take the left shoe from each pair; but if we have infinitely many pairs of socks, we do need the axiom of choice.

- Bertrand Russell

So randomness seems like a good fit for "choice" here, no? Or maybe call it ambivalence, or indifference. If the objects are truly unidentifiable, can it possibly matter which one you choose?

As the argument surely goes...
How does it contradict that? The set of negative integers does not have a least element, and neither does the set of negative reals. (But the former does have a greatest element (–1) while the latter doesn’t have that, either.)
Improving the cost of lithium extraction, if this can be scaled up, is actually a really big deal for electric vehicles. The single largest cost of a modern EV is the battery. Tesla thinks this process reduces the cost of lithium extraction 30%.
"Do poor people in a primitive society have more privacy than poor people in a developed country?"

Are you kidding? If I move to a different town, I can take on a whole new identity, a new name, hide my heritage.

Good luck tracking me down in medieval society if I move provinces, let alone countries.

Err, you shouldn't conflate privacy from private companies with privacy from the government.

The latter always was and always will be around, you can't hide from the ultimate authority.

Nothing will help you, short of living completely off the grid in an RV, maybe.

It's not a good thing, but governments everywhere are pushing for more surveillance and knowledge and they will get it.

But they also help increase privacy from private entities (at least in some countries), so there's that.
Of course is about money. The world is based on money. Advertising has existed for years, but it is only now being able to target with more precision. I know this might be an unpopular opinion here in HN, but I really don't see the problem with target advertising.
Defining optional URI paths in Nginx locations using PCRE regular expressions
What I don't understand is, why are these local US news sites required to comply with GDPR? I wouldn't think they'd have any obligation to follow it (or any possible recourse for not doing so) unless they have business operations in the EU. Are these local news sites in fact all owned by multinationals that do have operations in the EU?

Edit: I'm getting downvoted -- just in case it helps to clarify, I'm not trying to say anything anti-GDPR here... I'm just genuinely surprised these ostensibly US-only companies feel obligated to follow it and genuinely asking why? Is there an actual legal risk to non-compliance for them? Given the already low level of effort just to detect an EU-based IP address and show the patronizing error message, it seems like they must have had some motivation to even do that much and I'm just wondering what that was.
Would be US only VS an open solution accessible internationally.

Plus good luck getting political traction (especially against lobbies) faster than do it yourself
Toxic positivity. It's a pervasive feature of American culture.
Walmart sells an older Novo Nordisk insulin rather cheaply. The question is: Is it cheap enough?

It's still $75 per vial and depending on how poor you are that might still be to expensive.

The cheap insulin is also harder to regulate for the user. If you're poor, you might also have other issues which prevents you from correctly medicating yourself. I don't really see that an Open Source insulin would help anyone who can't already afford the cheapest commercial version.
Making fuel on the Moon or on Mars is more or less the plan for any sustainable development of the solar system. Unless we get sci-fi grade engines, it’s just unfeasible to send fuel from Earth.
I think the charitable answer is that bleeding edge process development is getting very hard and many exited/stumbled. IBM failed at 14nm too, and Intel which famously called itself 2 years in front of the rest of the industry for decades has been stumbling hard since 2015 and still hasn't really replaced their 14nm on the most visible parts of their lineup.

As to what failing means, it can be many things, sometimes you just have way too many defects to have the process be commercially viable (if your cost is 10x your competition and you can't fix it, you don't have a process), some bad technical choices because there's been less and less cross industry cooperation (things like the ITRS that gave a rough roadmap hasn't been a thing for a while, last I checked), and introducing new technologies (EUV or new metals) may compound those. Sometimes chips in your new process are more dense (which is good), but perform poorly because of one of the previously mentioned stuff to the point it's hard selling new chips that perform worse than previous gen. In Intel's 10nm case there was a bit of everything and it will be very interesting to know exactly what factored in more (Cobalt is often rumoured, a very overconfident choice for MPP was my initial understanding, I haven't really followed on this).

In the case of GloFo, it's perhaps simpler than that : GloFo was part since 2007 of an alliance between them (initially as AMD), IBM and Samsung called the Common Platform [1] that had more or less standardised a process, with a lot of the heavy research done by IBM (I would say, out of spite for Intel) and then used by GloFo and Samsung.

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.

And it definitely looked like from the outside, at least from my point of view, they were always in dire need of money except for acquisitions, and late with everything (including the process inherited from the alliance). Most of the business decisions done (including buying Chartered and reverse buying IBM's 22nm fabs) seemed to be about pure business and missed the technical understanding of the business and what it required to keep it going.

At the end of the day, for them, licensing 14 from Samsung was a great out of that mess. But that didn't happen for 10, and we (at least I) don't really know why. My guess is that GloFo would probably have been happy to keep going on with that arrangement, but I may be completely wrong on that one.

At the time I seem to recall that both had some issues filling up their order book (which seems a bit insane today, considering the current shortage) and that may have played into it from Samsung's point of view.

They aren't blocked, they are merely told that DIY repairs would void their warranty and/or support agreement. Which makes sense.

If that's what they agreed to in the contact, what is there to complain about?
More than 95% of the hydrogen produced comes from coal and gas[0]. If we manage to switch to hydrolysis, we'll have to generate at least twice the energy we'd need for Li-Ion batteries to due energy loss in weel-to-wheels measurements[1].

Also, there's no lack of materials for battery (NB: Tesla only uses LFP cells in China now, and achieve similar specs as their NMC chemistry used in the US).[2]

There's no shortage of materials in sight and it's far cheaper than hydrogen. Hydrogen has very few use cases were it's more efficient than batteries (industry, agriculture and aviation, mostly)[3].

The Right Story for Vaccine Holdouts
I think the idea that performers and characters are not the same when they are not performing or playing their character is something that's quite common. It's not really an insight into introversion and extraversion, but about popular culture.

After all the only information about a person that we get is from what we see and hear. It's healthier to expect and notice that a celebrity is not the same when not performing.

One example where some people have difficulty realising that celebrities are not normal is when the celebrities play The Bad Guy and people encounter them in the street and get negative responses. Whereas if they usually played The Good Guy then any equally as false positive reactions could be attributed to their normal character.

Another example from last millennia which is similar would be fans of authors expecting their idols to be erudite dinner guests, founts of wisdom, or the swashbuckling hero of their work. The author would have to point out that their novel took 12 months to create and a further 6 months of editing and they were not the same person as the lead character and that they lived with their aunt and collected roses as a hobby.

> good defense capabilities

Poland, as many other European countries, has terrible defense capabilities - it's basically mostly a flat plain that can be invaded without having to deal with any natural obstacles (mountains, swamps etc.). Also, there's not that many forests. Realistically, any prolonged guerilla warfare against overwhelming enemy forces (the only strategy that works in cases of big power disparity - see US vs Vietnam, US or USSR vs Afghanistan, USSR vs Finland, Germany vs Switzerland (Germans decided the attack is not worth it given how many mountains are there in Switzerland)) could be only done in the mountainous southernmost part of Poland. Other than that, we're gonna get steamrolled, like we (or France, Denmark, Netherlands, Belgium etc.) did in 1939.

It seems like we are set for much slower price decline, only halfling the battery price every ten years or so. But honestly that's fine, today's EVs have batteries that are large enough for most people in most places. Better charging infrastructure, and maybe faster charge times are what's missing most.

Hydrogen fuel cells are a fine technology, but it has no momentum. It has a chance to win long-distance trucking, but I doubt it will be the future of personal transportation.
A CDN is really only useful if you store your entire website with all it's content on it. Or if you serve a lot of data (petabyte egress) where the CDN have better peering deals for lower bandwidth cost. If you operate a "normal" static website, make sure http2 is activated, and that assets that never change are cached. And if possible use a hosting provider in the same country your users are located.

There's also the long quote from Electrek, which they claim "sums up the most important parts," but the quote just describes previous methods. The full Electrek article follows that with Tesla's method. That part is shorter, so you'd think a human would have quoted that instead.

(Kosher salt is probably the only one on that list that is just NaCl. Table salt has an anticaking ingredient added, thus the catch phrase "when it rains, it pours" (because untreated salt clumps), and usually also has iodine added. Sea salt typically has a mix of other minerals found naturally in sea water and may be as little as 86 percent NaCl.

There is also canning and pickling salt which is also possibly just NaCl. Pink Himalayan mountain salt contains iron, iirc, thus the pink coloring.)

No, hydrogen isn't a much safer bet, all Hindenburg jokes aside. Quite the contrary, I think hydrogen already has lost out in the car space and might even so in the truck space.
Battery costs are still falling a lot. With the changes outlined at the Tesla battery day, production costs for battery electric vehicles might be cheaper than combustion engined cars. If you compare a Tesla with a BMW, the Tesla already might be cheaper, it certainly is if you consider the TCO.

Meanwhile, hydrogen cars are much more expensive than battery electric cars, there are only a few models available at all and there are few filling stations - they are really expensive to build. On top of that, distribution of the hydrogen is much more complex than using the power grid for electricity. And you can charge an electric car at basically any outlet, if need requires.

But the largest problem is, that for renewable hydrogen, we need about 3x as much as electricity than using a battery electric vehicle. Not counting anything else, this is 3x the cost.
I hate phone requirements. In fact I do not even have a phone number for a few years now and regularly send emails to companies explaining how SMS is all but secure.

However you can just rent virtual phone numbers or even just pay a few cents to receive a verification once.
