>Teachers can work with over extended students to help them while they are in school

They can, but will they? Plus, it seems like GPA would be even easier for the wealthy to game, many fancy prep schools sell themselves on their ability to place kids in good colleges. If those kids no longer need to perform well on a standardized tests they just need a high GPA, that seems even easier from the school to guarantee.
Day.month is the standard throughout most of Europe.
It should be noted that "too much" is 6 cups per day, which I suspect very few people drink consistently.
The typical stick for controlling the wiper speeds usually only has a few different speeds, there's no fine-grained control of getting the exact speed to match the rain. You're forced to switch between too slow and too fast. Too fast creates a jarring sound/vibration, too slow means the water starts building up on the window, causing visibility issues.

An automatic wiper speed seems a lot safer.
Honestly, I suspect that most businesses like restaurants and other attractions that anyone would want to stop on during a long drive will have a high-speed charger in the parking lot.

When that happens, I doubt that it will be any format other than CCS. I also bet Tesla owners will grumble that they need to use an adapter when no one else has to.
That is a pretty underrated take.

It's as if a significant portion of humanity has committed themselves to slow mass suicide, and decided they wanna take everyone else with 'em. Totally 110% agree with your description of it as "surreal". I keep waiting to wake from the nightmare, but it's all turning out to be real.
That, and actual proper ocean storms.
You're just making excuses for them. They made a lot of money so they deserve to sit on it and use it just for themselves. I'm not talking about other people, I'm talking about people who only focus on continually acquiring money so they can blow it all on themselves when there is plenty for the rest of the world.
It was a legislature introduced constitutional amendment; the legislature was heavily involved by virtue of voting to put it on the ballot.
In Japan they tear down houses and build new ones. They hire architects to design houses!

They also make cars that are good for 300,000 miles but sell them at 30,000 miles to people in the third world.

Thank you, I had not seen these before.
> can't really count calories

Sure it can. Your body knows whether it's putting glucose on the shelf or taking glucose off the shelf, because it's the one doing it. It knows how many reserves it's keeping, because it's the one keeping the reserves. See: leptin, but in general the problem of reliable energy storage/retrieval is a strict superset of the energy accounting problem and yet our bodies accomplish the storage/retrieval problem with many 9s of reliability.
Depending on how and what you brew, a cup of coffee can contain 35, 100 or 150 mg of caffeine. People also invariably consider a mug of coffee the same as a cup of coffee.

A common reference in $my_country is that a cup (15 cl) of coffee usually contains circa 70 mg of caffeine.
This author does not understand innovation, nor what it takes to truly innovate in a large corporation:
- Many ideas must be tried to the fullest. Had Xerox implemented what was invented at PARC, 20% might have been wildly successful, and the rest fail. But those blockbusters pay for the rest.
- It pains me to say this, but if you are trying to do impossible things, nothing can stand in your way, not even people. Employees have bad days, bad months, and bad years. You can spare no time for that at all, you must be relentless, or the company or product will fail.
- People are motivated by vision (the carrot) and termination (the stick). Titles and money do nothing, they just create job stickiness, they don't promote action. If you have a strong vision, and promote a relentless ethic, and a driven culture, you might 'just' make it.
I love it as well. It's become part of my morning coffee ritual where I listen to the birds and learn what's out there.

What I've noticed is, rather than focus on endless scrolling through Reddit etc., I'm actually very present in listening to the calls, the nuances of them, and getting familiar with the pulse of the nature around me.

This app simply gamifies that experience and let's me play audio pokemon while at the same time tuning out the rest of the world.
That's exactly why I'm in the comments looking for a TLDR
I agree with you except for that last sentence—but in that anecdote he didn’t even know if the symbol he was pointing at was supposed to be a valve or a window. I think a much more likely explanation is just selection bias: if he’d asked “what happened if this valve gets stuck?” and they’d replied “oh, this pressure release over here will activate” the anecdote would have simply been too boring to make it into the book. Take the “best of” anecdotes from a busy lifetime and add a flair for storytelling and of course you’ll get an inflated view; the alternative would be a lot less likely to produce discussions on HN.
I used syncthing for about 5 years but eventually just fell back to mounting centralized storage and dealing with the cases it was slow to access sometimes. There were a few sync conflict issues I ran into over the years once I stopped using it for "core document sync" where it was just <1G and <10000 files (especially when one device was disconnected for a plane flight and came back online with a queue of changes) but the big thing was there were a couple of times I didn't continuously check things were syncing and it turns out I made 2 copies of files with different edits because they didn't see each other or the main node at home went away and I didn't catch it. You just don't run into these problems with a centralized host.

Also it really ate up CPU/memory when I had a lot of files going. It was among the worst "spin up the laptop fans at idle" offenders, even more so than equivalent options like onedrive.

That being said it was really great for a subset of my use case and the problems I had with it border more on problems with the model rather than problems with the tool.
I recently saved an old (2012) Mac Pro from the trash at work. As a lockdown project, I decided to do the rejuvenate the thing, thing. Cleaned it up, wiped and put a fresh copy of High Sierra on it. I am a long time Linux guy and I was pleasantly surprised. It’s almost fun to use!

That said, I believe High Sierra is the last release before things start getting...weird? My wife has a newer Mac (cannot remember the release) but I had some pretty crazy hurdles to install an unsigned bit of software. If that’s the trajectory Apple is taking, I don’t think I will be ditching Linux for MacOS.

We tested AI interview tools. Here’s what we found
The statistic is relative: "a 53% increase" is relative to some baseline. It does not mean the absolute risk is raised to 53%.

Without context these relative form are meaningless, and they are presented this way annoyingly commonly by media. For example if the baseline absolute risk is 0.0100% then the study suggests the increase would raise that to 0.0153% in absolute terms... and no I do not know what the baseline is, the headline is truly meaningless to me.
I drink coffee after dinner and sleep like a baby (an expression invented by those who have not had babies, but you know what I mean). But it was not always thus. The secret is drug tolerance!
"rare" is subjective - I'd have written it the same way (DD.MM) if I were going to write those dates without thinking. The author is from Poland, and so am I. Old habits die hard.

I guess the big question for birders would be: is BirdNet identification sufficient evidence for a log entry in a birding log book?
these companies have the same rights as you. your desire to tell these people that you want them to be liable is punching yourself in the face, it means you won't be able to host comments or host other people's voice either. I don't get how you can think what you ask for would only affect them. this us vs them mentality is ridiculous & disgusting. these entities are being treated like the private entities that they are & the twisted meanspirited against-them rage you hit with is hitting against each & every citizen's right.

this fabricated fictitious no-lawful-basis that anyone who hosts speech online is suddenly a publisher is some serious china/Russia grade info-fascism & it's so vile, so wrong, such a dangerous disgusting info-fascism that would singlehandedly doom every hope of cyberspace we've ever had. there's no line you propose, just sabtoage, destruction of safe harbor, tearing down hostability. I can not state enough what a shallow shortsighted assessment you've taken in determining that dynamiting the best/only online legal bastion of free speech online we have (because you have stupid bone to picks with some private entities moderation attempts) is good for anyone.

there's no selective enforcement. we all enjoy safe harbor. everyone hosting content online needs it. desperately needs it. everyone.
> People were able to go into space before billionaires wanted to do it on a whim, you know.

Yes, albeit at extremely high cost, which has always limited its utility.

Maybe you haven't been keeping a close eye on progress in space tech, but SpaceX is working towards reducing cost per kilogram by two orders of magnitude. 1/100th! Compared to the already relatively reasonably priced Falcon 9! And they're just about to do an orbital test of the system (Starship+Super Heavy Booster). This is after decades of government contractor launch providers like ULA happily milking the government with cost-plus contracts, where the costs only ever seemed to go the wrong way.

Blue Origin is aiming to be competitive with them with New Glenn, also a massive cargo-carrying rocket. Certainly not there yet, but they don't seem to be aiming for the space tourism flights for the superrich as an endpoint.

Virgin Galactic, shrug, but the sister company Virgin Orbit wing is doing interesting things with smallsat launches from a 747.

These are not all useless vanity projects.
I just think they're part of the non-fiction fantasy genre of entertainment alongside cooking, travel, and house buying + renovating shows.

They're ostensibly informational, but 99% of people consuming them aren't genuinely looking to cook the thing, travel to the place, or buy and renovate a house.
Not necessarily. It means at least that in the mental model they have of other people they think those other people might do something. Importantly, that mental model does not need to be correct or accurately model any real person or group for that to be expressed.

For an example (a silly one so people don't make a useless tangent arguing irrelevant details), if I for some reason believed that all Chevrolet drivers were fanatics and psychotics, and after someone made a disparaging comment about Chevrolet vehicles, I might say "I wouldn't be surprised if Chevy drivers assaulted someone over this". This doesn't mean I think that should happen, as it's an expression of what I think other people might do. It also doesn't actually express that other people might do this, because my mental model of those people is obviously incorrect. The only thing you can actually infer from that statement is what I think about that subgroup of people, whether I'm one of them or not, and that's just opinion.
A biologist would only take umbrage rhetorically, which is fine, but they'll never categorize a rock, a flower, or a human as 'a horse' so in reality it's not a problem.

While 'value' is surely in the eye of the beholder ... whether or not something fits into the category is not as subjective.

And frankly, the 'big question' is 'who is the beholder' - which is something that materialism is struggling to tell us.
I think the key difference is yours and mine concept of 'underpowered'.

Their cheapest seat has 5gb ram. If I had a laptop with 8gb RAM I would consider it under powered.

If I had 4gb, as low as tolerable, why would I pay a premium for 1gb extra with a likely probably throttled CPU.
It was FUD from the first minutes: Look at it highlighting security cameras at ByteDance and the ominous music.
For a less US-centric perspective, regional differentials in development persist even for countries with 'homogenous' populations. Italy is a canonical example, with significant differences between the rich North and the poor South. By US ethnic standards, Northern and Southern Italians are basically indistinguishable clones, though Italians themselves may beg to differ. See also Germany, Belgium, Poland or Romania.

That isn't necessarily true. All you have to do to keep the concept of external soul alive is to accept the idea of simpler souls. Maybe there isn't am irreducibly complex soul.
It would be nice if the browser had finer-grained controls, i.e. if you could monitor the amount of data the website attempts to send.. possibly even mock the webcam first and send a fake video to see what happens.

While I hear what you're saying, were we all vaccinated, we would quickly reach herd immunity and the virus would stop bouncing around completely, thus rendered a historical footnote like Polio and Smallpox.
They had a definition. They changed it on the very day of the launch?

I'm sorry, but that's just bullshit. If you've got a definition of what exactly is a sailor and then you change it when I step in a boat, that's just ridiculous.
It sounds like Musk was already looking at investing in a different electric sports car company and thus it was more a case of a bunch of people having similar ideas amd working together. They also say that the buzz business model was something they sort of fell into.

Edit: The other side of the story is here. I am sure both sides have bias, but given that a judge dismissed Eberhard's claim that there were only two co-founders, it the five co-founder settlement seems reasonable.
I think you actually touch on three good points here. One is that "foo: {{ var }}" is not a hygienic template. If var is equal to "bar\nbaz: quux", you've injected hard-to-debug additional keys into the output. The next is that there are common pieces that Kuberenetes defines, and they are all demoted to map[string]interface{}. For example, a lot of charts have "resources" attached to applications, and those are (in Go land), v1.ResourceRequirements. But it could be anything in Helm, it's just a JSON object. So helm itself can't say "you typed 1000M cpu, but probably meant 1000m cpu". And finally, each chart has total latitude to name anything whatever it wants. One chart could say "myapp: { cpu: 42 }" and another configures that as "yourapp: { resources: { requests: { cpu: 42 } } } }". You get to learn Kubernetes all over every time for each app. With zero documentation, usually, except a values.yaml to cut-n-paste from. (My success rate is low. Every Helm app I've installed has required me to read the source code to get it to do what I want. But, other people have better luck, to be fair.)

On top of all that, the value that Helm delivers to people is "you don't have to read the documentation for Deployment to make a Deployment". But then you have to debug that, and you have another layer of complexity bundled on top of your already weak understanding of the core.

Like I get that Kubernetes asks you a lot of questions just to run a container. But they are all good questions, and the answers are important. Just answer the questions and be happy. (Yes, you need to know approximately how much memory your application uses. You needed to know that in the old pet computer era too -- you had to pick some amount to buy at the memory store. Now it's just a field in a YAML file, but the answer is just as critical. A helm chart can set guesses, and if that makes you feel better, maybe that's the value it delivers. But one day, you'll find the guess is wrong, and realize you didn't save any time.)

I think it shows why billionaires shouldn't own news outlets. They become their propaganda machines. Look at WaPo vomiting out puff piece after puff piece for their owner, Daddy Bezos.
Who cares. They'll be flying in space and soon being an astronaut will be as ordinary as going on an airplane.
Wow, what a response. Thank you for taking the time to reply and I think you did a far better job of summing up the challenge of being a “modern C++ programmer” than I could have dreamed of. I had no idea that Scott Meyers had bailed on the language, I’m honestly stunned to read that.
So the absolute worst case scenario then is you buy your own second phone for $50-150 and use that for work purposes only.

Still sucks of course, but a far cry from the false dichotomy of "submit to Apple/Google rule or lose your job."
I think it would go against Debian's philosophy to move fast enough to keep up with Syncthing.
> Boston home buyers have only one requirement: a home to buy.

Not in my experience. In my building 4 of 6 units have been sold in the past year. All of them sold below or at original purchase price 2 years ago when it was new construction.

From what I hear things are different outside Boston, but in Boston it seems like a lot of new construction is going unsold and units are staying on the market for months.
Defining IQ is tricky to begin with. So is defining success.

The sooner we use PKI for identification in some oauth2 like system (where we can choose to redact irrelevant information such as our name or address) the better.

Brisbane Australia scans ID cards on entry to nightclubs (I think there’s a control where if you’re booted from one club you’re barred from all for the night). I’m all for a safe nightlife, but good luck asking a bouncer what their data retention, data privacy, and operational/technical security are without getting laughed out of the cue.
This makes me wonder... who matches with whom if we map the current set of space tourists to the cast of Avenue 5? (Only a thought experiment. Nothing to see here, move along.)
Suicide is a good description, as that is another thing people willingly and voluntarily opt in to.

There are a zillion jobs available in the US right now; anyone in a bad/abusive one is choosing it (or stuck in a remote locale for other reasons). I'm glad that the number of options are giving these workers leverage to tell their employer to make things better.
I'd be 100% happy with 3 buttons and no touchpad. My thinkpads have had their touchpads disabled every since they added them.

Really? I'd not have expected that.

Oh yes. Rather than being towed, the payload explores its entire tethered configuration space between one step and the next. Not a donkey walking along a river towing a barge, but a mouse clinging to wire and a balloon a hurricane. The nanoscale moshpit from hell.

It's like creating education content about human locomotion, for aliens completely unfamiliar with it, and with no sense of what's plausible, and showing them only one of those stop motion videos where someone floats along not touching the ground. An extremely biased selection of video frames to tell a very false narrative.

Worse, this and other misconceptions engendered might be mitigated by very briefly including other representations... but the folks who created the video explicitly prioritize "pretty" over "do no harm". Which rather diminishes my appreciation of their beauty.

> cool to visualize the organized thermodynamic

Years ago I saw a video at a talk, of simulated viral icosahedral capsid assembly. The panels are tethered together, to maintain proximity, as they bounce and slam together and apart, incrementally assembling and misassembling. I wish I could link to it. If anyone knows of content to give a visceral feel for nanoscale dynamics, I'd appreciate hearing of it.
I’m sorry that’s happened to you, and I think that’s a good perspective. It’s sometimes hard to grapple with something that one doesn’t personally experience, but I’m glad people are slowly becoming more aware.

Peering's definitely cheap compared to what Amazon's charging. Amazon even has a peering product for 16.5 cents per Mbps, but it's not usable in this circumstance.

"Please join our free peering group of many companies." is neither a cartel nor a request for special treatment.

What are they "disingenuously leveraging"?
Or maybe food companies saw what tobacco companies had done with great success (formulating products that cause continual redosing/eating)

Oddly, it seems that finding that deep shaft that is known to be geologically stable for at least a couple of half lives is fairly difficult, to say nothing of the issue of transporting the material from the reactor to said shaft.
I wouldn't rely on Framework doing this, but if the PCB dimensions were open source, I bet you would have a few companies looking to fabricate custom mainboards with ARM chips that could slot into the Framework shell :D

I find it fascinating that abiotic chemical/physical cycles are considered an integral part of early life (e.g. if your nutrient transport is environmental osmosis/tides/whatever, you're still alive but the larger environment is an integral part of your biochemistry).

From that perspective the freshwater cycle is still a major component of biochemistry (bulk ion transport) on Earth, despite arguably being a physical state change and not chemistry per se.

The Sun provides photons that most cells need in order to live but Desulforudis audaxviator have decoupled themselves from that source of energy. In theory they could outlast the solar system or hitch a ride on a rogue planet.
