True, a few percent per year. Still, the combined effect of tracking protection in non-Chrome browsers is changing the web for the better, I think. For example, websites must deal with Safari’s tracking prevention because there’s no alternative on iOS, so Apple does have some control.
What I learned from the book “Software Engineering at Google”
> The human operators were the unreliable factor.

Separating the two things (operator and technology) is merely a technicality, in reality they are not transparent to the general public and should be treated as parts of the same.

If AI™ only happens in a black box behind closed doors with people getting the opportunity to make inconvenient results disappear and that is basically the way it is trying to be established then no, it is not reliable.

The operator is part of this whole system, if it can't be used without the unreliable operator, the tech is not reliable.
Apple went with Cingular not AT&T. The iPhone would not have been possible in this era of monopoly where we only have 3 carriers left. This is what we have lost not enforcing antitrust.

Ask HN: Programming Audio Book Recommendations
I listen to audiobooks when driving, mowing the lawn or other manual tasks.

I've found some great books such as clean architecture and the pragmatic programmer.

I've also found some terrible books such as grokking algorithms.

I'm sure this community will have some recommendations to help avoid the terrible books.
I think your first assertion is pretty misinformed since it's republicans are pushing texas to go over to renewables, if for no other reason than it just makes business sense. Run as much as your state renewably as possible, so long as it's cheaper than oil/gas and export oil/gas outside the state. And in texas currently renewables are cheaper than oil/gas.
It will likely be something like imagining typing, or swiping. It won't work at the level of words. You'd have to correlate between 50k and 250k individual words per person, which would be cumbersome and obnoxious. You have to correlate word components, and the easiest way to train is tapping into a feedback loop that already achieves your intent, like typing.

Systems like the palm pilot graffiti interface, or some optimized symbolic gesture system will become prevalent, but imagining typing will probably carry us sufficiently until better systems are worked out.
I could totally imagine that.

Lots of people who would normally have excellent, well-lit offices, have a cramped bedroom at home due to exorbitant rent prices in the Bay Area.

When companies went WFH, they didn't give any rent subsidies to people to rent out bigger apartments with proper work space.

Not being a chef, I'll have to defer to you, but I despise stainless steel pans. My favorite pans are these[1] thin, expensive-ish aluminum ones. They not only heat evenly, but are really non-stick (even with little or no oil) and are light and amazingly easy to clean.

Point taken wrt greenhouse, but I don't think we're gonna be that desperate even considering how bad the situation already is, and is likely to get.

Gas cooking is a really tiny fraction of residential greenhouse emissions. Natural gas accounts for most of of the greenhouse emissions from commercial and residential[0] sources, but commercial & residential represent less than 15% of the total domestic US contribution. If you consider how often somebody is using the gas range vs their water heater or household heating, this is a really really small number.

Globally, the numbers look similar[1]. I'm not sure about how much gas is leaking from the grid, or what the cost of the hazards associated with the gas supply is, however the second source cites fugitive emissions as %3.9 and pipeline transport as %0.3. Its a little unclear to me exactly what the proportion of cooking is, but it is undoubtedly very small.

Greenhouse minimalist is certainly a valid position to stake out, but personally I see the buy in easier to achieve in the other, larger, more centralized sources. There is also the possibility of delivering non-fossil fuel gas, while a bit jokey, there are diverse sources and the technology is mature[2]

However you or I feel about energy diversity should probably be disregarded currently as its not an issue at this time, but I feel confident that we likely can keep cooking with gas if we handle the other stuff and even if we don't. Also, consider the unneeded political difficulty introduced while garnering consumer action instead of tackling the largest and most easily managed contributors.

All their apps are privacy nightmares. I have a MI Note 4 and MIUI is still buttery smooth after all these years. Before this I used to have Samsung's flagship phones. The UI got laggy and slow after a few years. Compared to that MIUI is nice.
Your description isn't quite accurate either. IRQ, DART drivers have been written; I2C, UART, NVMe, USB, PCI, USB-C/PD, Wi-Fi drivers have been adapted.

I'm currently working on reverse engineering the display controller and will move onto the GPU after that. Alyssa has been working on the GPU userspace stack and the GLES2 tests are 80% or so passing, running mesa on macOS (open source userspace, Apple's kernel driver).

I've spent a lot of time brainstorming the installer and researching the approach, and we already have manual install guide. I'll work on that as soon as the GPU kernel stuff is on track.

As for userspace, there's nothing to be done for basic support; you can install any distro userspace you like. The main things there are the Mesa driver and, eventually, helpers for stuff like the Touch Bar (obviously we'll get the non-TB Macs running nicely earlier, TB is an annoying complication).

Things are in various stages of development and review, and yes, only IRQ, UART and basic bring-up is upstreamed, but I think you'll find things get to end-user usability a lot faster than you might think.
I don't agree about the level of abstraction.

It is often recommend to not write a function if you call it only once or twice. So most functions will be called multiple times in your code.

Copilot can be useful here as it will autocomplete all arguments, based on the context (existing variables) and knowledge about the functions arguments, or previous usages. Of course sometimes it is wrong, but this is still very useful to me !
All transactions are recorded on the blockchain, they could follow the money, or have some police force do it.
It'll never be "user ready". It'll be like a Hackintosh: a quaint toy for hobbyists that is constantly broken by Apple's new stuff and therefore unlivable as a daily driver. Only the most fanatical folks would be willing to live on a flavor of Linux that can only survive hardware revisions through extensive reverse engineering efforts. I say this despite having a huge amount of respect for the developers.
Nobody "chooses" anything, the belief in agency is a myth from the rich, resulting in victim blaming.

I don’t live in Pennsylvania. I live in a blue state that has lower crime than California.

I don’t believe most of the studies about guns and violence. The people doing them are almost always ideologically motivated. (Including the “guns reduce crime” studies.) If you look at the details, you find them counting suicides as “gun violence” to boost their stats. Your second link makes that “mistake”. Another common mistake is to ignore all confounders. Yes people who own guns might be more likely to be murdered. Perhaps they own guns precisely because their fears are justified. Lastly, studies almost always conflate legal and illegal gun ownership. There is a huge difference in risk between a law abiding citizen who gets a concealed carry permit and a gang member who illegally carries.

The sad truth is that nobody is doing good research on this topic. Moreover, studies like these are barking up the wrong tree. I’m certain that restricting some rights would lead to improved outcomes, but that doesn’t mean we should restrict freedom of speech or voting. So too for the right to defend oneself from violent criminals.
Unsubstantiated rumors of things causing autism don't exactly have the best track record.

Don't worry, that's far from the most interesting plot point in Mr. Robot! Now, if the above commenter had spoiled any of the circumstances surrounding the described hack, then you'd definitely want to be angry. Knowing that hack happens is like knowing that there are dragons in Game of Thrones.

Hmm good point. I guess we'll have to see if it's a problem in practice.
Also, good old enamel pots work very well, and they're awesome to cook with.
More guns != more violence. That's absurd and has zero basis in reality. The reality is that more gun restrictions = more violence. Look at any relevant statistic and see the direct correlation between gun control and increased crime against innocent people.

Even if the stats were somehow in your favor, the moral and ethical principle of the right to self defense cannot reasonably be refuted, and any attempt to do so should not be tolerated by civilized human beings.
> I don't ever, ever, fucking ever use any cooktop as counter space. That's just asking for a catastrophe when a hob is accidentally turned on.

> The list for India is weird though. It has a lot of names which are in the pro current establishment camp and some of their own leaders as well.

It’s not that weird when you look at it. Most news agencies are privately owned. These journalists aren’t born stooges of the Government. Many of them were forced to become pro-Government when the Government threatened to pull advertising by Public corporations on their networks. That’s one lever. Having dirt on the journalists? Another lever.

Interesting, and yet all the people that worked for me massively respect me when I point out a mistake I did towards them in front of everyone else. It's probably related to the fact that I tend to be very strong when making those decision, but when I publicly announce my mistake in front of their peers it builds trust.

I basically learned that because I hated the bosses that would take credit for their subordinates ideas and then blame them when something went wrong, so I'm trying to do the opposite.

No. Unless it was lobbyists that made my history books in school.

Still whenever I tried in the past to get an answer to why Greenland was so warm 1000 years ago I get labeled a shill.

It is somewhat maddening and absolutely not something that helps trust.

MAD is over-rated, since world leaders refuse to rely on it.

Reagan initiated SDI ("Star Wars") because he believed in positive defense, not MAD, and Russia has the only ABM ring around Moscow, and won't give it up.

Russia has placed Doomsday devices off US coasts.

The CCP is currently doubling their nuclear arsenal from 200 to 400+ to counter the US being a vocal superpower. Xi is a clone of Mao, who killed 80 million of his own people.

First, the post you're replying to is referring to rate of change, you've chosen to refer to total concentration.

Second, doubling of gas concentration in a system as large as an entire planet should be mind boggling. The fact that it isn't means you aren't thinking about it hard enough. Imagine if the ocean suddenly had twice as much salt, or if there was suddenly twice as much water, or if there were suddenly twice as many cars on the road. These would all be pretty amazing events.
I would say the same feeling is had with global warming and climate change. You can't really see it, you can't really connect rainfall + sunlight directly to anything to do with the climate because it really is all just invisible.

The company will pick whatever is best suited for the task at hand. my employer in europe chose mattermost on company premises. i can use it with the matterhorn ncurses client and it's a joy to watch it consume 0% cpu time and a negligible amount of memory.

Besides, this was originally about discord, which hopefully no company uses to manage internal communications(?) When not working you are totally free to choose whatever communication infrastructure you want and are not bound to whatever your employer thinks is best.

> Far more damage is being done to human health by industrial wheat, corn, and soy farming, than cattle grazing.

But most cattle production (in the US at least) involves converting those crops to cattle with a conversion ratio that is pretty poor. You can't have a discussion about reform/reduction of monoculture crops without it necessitating a significant reduction in livestock production.

Yes it could.

The point is that if the government is doing the "censorsing" or whatever you want to call it, then at the very least, whatever that "censoring" is, we have judges and rights and similar checks and balances that prevents the government from doing too much.

If something is so bad, that it needs to be censored, then our court system should handle it.
