Dos:

1. Buy a tollfree phone number and list it your website. Some people like to talk to a support agent rather than email.

2. An official email makes the business appear legitimate. Have an email@companyname.com.

Don'ts:

1. I didn't have good experience with website chat widgets as I found them confusing to configure and that generated numerous low quality interactions.

2. Since the volume of emails is low initially, better to avoid email automation as that can take up a chunk of time to set up. Start with manual emails and once you know which email copy evokes a response, you can think about automating them.
In my experience, people just want their biases confirmed and their prejudices reinforced. Moving away from mainstream media gives the people what they really want: white supremacy and conspiracy theories.
Not sure of the reason, but worth noting that a good chunk of people in the south of China pronounce it like the English “z”.
The current Germany infrastructure total cost is around 500B€ in 20 years. That's for sure a few brand new nuclear power plants, or a few big investment plans in power efficiency (heat pumps, isolation…).

Wind turbines lifespan is around 25 years (some 30 years), mostly limited by structural and physical issues. You can't reinstall a new wind turbine on top of an old one (the concrete base is also fragilized and new turbines are often way bigger than old ones).

Solar panels indeed have a way better lifespan and recent ones stay efficient even after decades of use.

So one question now: why is Germany building and importing so much natural gaz (~400g of CO²/kwh, it's around 10 for renewable/nuclear) if their renewable plan is working so well ?
Lower population is good as there are more resources to go around, however there start to be issues as the older generations start retiring and/or are unable to work and have to rely on the smaller younger generations to support them.
I would bet, in autocratic, tyrannical countries which have history of disinforming and controlling info access if their citizens; those citizens are much more resistant to disinformation. They are cynical and question what they are told.

The USA population is extremely nieave and trusting.

Freedom of press and of speech have lot to do with it as well. It's hard to disinform populace who's information sources are controlled by your adversary
I for one enjoy watching it. A bunch of people I know like to watch it too (and they don't really "do" sports normally).

At least in the UK, it gets prime-time billing on one of the major BBC channels.
The congestion is largely due to the bay bridge. People working downtown leaving to go to the East will always clog up that pathway which then ripples. You could force others who also want to get to the East bay to take earlier on-ramps, but the slow traffic to the bridge will continue the slow traffic to get to the bridge downtown, so there’s no good way to avoid that other than have East bay folks take Bart or a bus.
Whatever runtime Steam bundles with its games will soon grow almost as many irritating warts. Valve is apparently getting anticheat to work, which under Windows involves basically voluntarily installing a kernel-level rootkit so the game publisher can fully monitor your PC.

Ultimately the ideal setup will probably involve keeping a Windows machine around for gaming and using Linux for serious work. Or running Windows in a VM with PCI passthrough for the video card.
> If stuff isn't moderated, only the extremely intolerant views will remain.

That's actually the claim here and it's not one you support. Mein Kampf, an extremist work, has existed for 80 some years now and can be bought in most bookstores, yet we don't seem to all be goose-stepping or have any less non-extremist content for it.

Reddit right now is having an interesting problem where by simply subscribing or commenting in a subreddit, others will ban you. That doesn't seem to be "moderation" but instead we're attacking peoples freedom of expression.

The Paradox of Tolerance is against intolerant behavior - one of which is suppressing expression.

Unless moderators themselves are extremely intolerant already. Moderation isn't black or white - the "what", "how" and "why" of moderating matters.

This is a neat angle on the problem. While I was reading the beginning, I was thinking "So, when are they going to talk about fixing remittance payments?" That's always been the big pain (and cost) for my in-laws. But you acknowledged there are other companies attempting to solve this. Do you plan to work with them? The actual sending of the money is a critical link in the chain, and can be pretty painful, especially if, for example, the recipient is unbanked.

Credibility is a thing, and if you have none yourself your words don't mean much. NYT can take a long walk off of a short pier, but this person's words are worthless.
>Now try to guess what is happening when everyone starts to do what Germany is doing for close to 20 years now ?

I am not a huge fan of Germany's energy policy myself, I see it as misguided giving up nuclear first and coal second.

BUT, if everyone built out renewables like crazy, it would create a huge market for storage or electrolysis systems.
Please provide a source for this, then.

ed- One thing is organising contracts in a certain way another thing entirely is setting in place an export ban - which, you may recall, is exactly what the EU DID threaten to do when the Dutch-run AZ plants failed to produce what they planned to do, despite the UK funding it to the tune of something like £54M to get production going, which the Dutch government outright refused to do.

Again, because this crops up a lot - I am in no way a flag-waving brexiteer - but i am thoroughly fed up with the shit-eating grinning from people with axes to grind. The UK has a lot to feel ashamed for over recent years, but this is not one of them.
And if you're designing hardware (or on an FPGA) ChaCha (and BLAKE2/3) are actually really freakin' fast for the die area they take. IIRC ChaCha20 beats AES in hardware. It's just extremely rare (FPGA only) to find it in hardware, since there's not enough demand. I expect that to eventually change.
Oh god. I guess Rust designers have not foresee a function taking 5 parameters.

At this point, somehow, I'm starting to consider C++ templates beautiful! Perhaps a signature form like:

would be clearer at this point.

Some work much more recent than 1997 with ADS/CFT correspondences shows that entanglement may manifest physically as wormholes. That is, there becomes a way for entangled particles to be local in spacetime despite them appearing to be distant in space. (ER = EPR conjecture).

If you look at it from a cultural perspective, many African American boys/men in extremely dangerous and poor areas use marijuana as a way to NOT develop mental issues. Considering how little mental help or even how little routine healthcare these men/boys receive, it makes sense to find SOMETHING to cope. Dependence on alcohol has clear bad-examples of the "wino", or street drunk. Same with the use of crack cocaine (the "crack" head/ the "fiend"). So many black men smoke lots of marijuana, but don't drink and don't do any other drugs.

Also, the environments they need to navigate requires understanding tattoos, colors, signs and tons of other subtle social cues in order to not become a target or deemed to be weak. There may be an under-reporting of instances of schizophrenia, but on a whole these brothers aren't showing signs of schizophrenia due to over use of marijuana.

And really, our current laws are just used to arrest someone, who might be an overall good person, besides the social stigma of "weed smoker". I really do beg anyone who is conservative on this issue due to the POSSIBILITY of someone developing schizophrenia, to maybe consider this as magnitudes less harmful than the use of marijuana policy to target black men; specifically black boys; and putting them in jail and ruining their future. You have to understand the environments they are coming from; so just saying "stay off the dope" is very callous and uninformed. Your life experience isn't the template for everyone.

I know this is a touchy topic on HN, but I really do hope we are able to open our circle of trust to people we wouldn't normally think about.
Hoping the olympics just goes away. Now it's all hyper scientifically prepped professionals competing to get attention in between ads on some idiotic exclusive network. College football is about to become the same thing. No more thrill of victory or agony of defeat, just filler to sell more toilet paper or something.

Yeah! This article not just explains how async works, the author show research methods to learn how async works. How something works is transient knowledge, how to learn how something works is timeless priceless knowledge.

The methods include strategically inserted panic!, some nice crates with examples how to use them... I cannot say I've learnt a lot about async, but I got few insights on technicalities of self-learning.

That looks like a template instantiation to me. It's "<&[u8; CHUNK_LEN], NUM_INPUTS>" So the angle brackets are wrapping two arguments to the template.
Lot's of people. Just because you may not care about sports doesnt mean massive amounts of people around the world don't. Several countries will win their first gold this year. That's a national achievement. Several sports will be included for the first time this year. That is a whole set of people who get to see their favorite hobby included in the games. Many new world records will be set which is an example of technology, humans, and science all working together to achieve things thought impossible before.

Many people care about the Olympics for many reasons.
That is not the reality. Even the most stupid and lazy person will find a framework to use.

This are just old pages that bad search engine surface. IMO if you focus the actual lessons here are:

- developers are lazy, you need to fix that, there is no magic language that solves the issue though some fanboys will say that their favorite language is more idiot friendly.

- search engine and soon the AIs are stupid, let's try to encourage books or other quality materials. Recently I found a collegue that did not know that in JS the "addEventListener" function exists and you can use it to add more then 1 listener at a time, this person probably can put on his CV 5+ yearts JS experience and a few frameworks. Mayb e if we stop focusing on the "my language is cooler" we could find the actual problems.

Back in my starting years I was reading books to learn, there when you get to the SQL chapter you were explained all about SQL injection and related bugs and how to use prepared statements. With PHP you can block this dangerous functions (PHP is flexible and many stuff like "exec" is blocked in most hosting places, but the problem with newb developers remain, if we can agree about this real problem(IMO_ we can maybe address it. Sure, downranking bad tutorials would be a part of the solution, also Google should probably stop their shit where they put the solution directly on the search page and not forces you to actualy visit SO and see comments, limitations and alternatives, shame Google, you make software industry worse with your greed...
Ask HN: Any History Podcast Recommendations?
Hello. I enjoy listening to history podcasts, but all I can find now is either about well-known topics (i.e discovery of America) or subtly reflecting the ideological opinions of the host.

I want to find something objective and original. The topics don't need to be too niche. Do you have any recommendations? Thanks.
“Show HN” means OP is the maker of that project, am I right? In that case, isn’t it extremely suspicious that OP claims “great security design” in the title?
In Rust, <> are used for type arguments. E.g. if you make a function with a generic type, it would be `fn my_func<T>(arg1: T) { ... }`

Now, what we have here is commonly referred to as the Turbo Fish[0] operator (the `::<>` syntax). In this case it's there to help let the compiler know which concrete type you want to create your new `ArrayVec` with :)

Bank ATMs in Japan stop working between 6-9PM, and on weekends.

My debit card got de-magnetized ( like a flaky hotel room key ) and stopped working at the official bank ATM. It doesn't work at most third party ATMs, but I've found the 7-11 ATMs are quite robust and is actually able to transact. Seems like a weird security mechanism if the official bank ATM can't authenticate the card, but somehow 7-11 ATMs can bypass this and allow me to withdraw money.

The bank's website also has a very strange username / password rules. They can only contain numbers and letters, case insensitively. Also, you can't have more than 2 consecutive numbers or letters. For example, 'foo2bar' would not be valid, nor would 'fo911baz'. 'fo23ba23' works.

One of my friends in Japan is a doctor from Belarus, one of the poorest countries in Eastern Europe. She came to Japan thinking it was technologically advanced, and was shocked to find that in some aspects Belarus is more technologically modern.

I have a very cynical theory about why technology is seemingly archaic here. I think the state of digital technology is due to structural / hierarchical social reasons that these initiatives don't really address. Not directly related to the hierarchical constructs, but examples of traditional practices include:

- resumes must be hand-written

- the stack of paperwork you need to sign for an apartment is about 1 inches thick. If you're purchasing a property, you'll probably need a couple binders.

- you need to create Hanko ( personal seal stamp ) as your official signature for some paperwork

Yeah gonna have to disagree strongly with that. iTunes abstracted away the need to manually manage music files. Very few non-nerds actually wanted to do that.

Jamming iPhone-related features into iTunes bloated it up, but in the beginning iTunes was a pretty great piece of media-management software.

Not necessarily. Let me give you an example, if there’s other metadata included with a specific contact list entry, it would be valuable to have duplicate numbers, as that extra metadata could then be leveraged potentially.
Sign up for a ten-day (or maybe it's one week?) Hulu trial. Then you can use that as your login. If that doesn't last long enough you might be able to find another online service (Sling?) that will work without payment for a short time. (Or you could spend $20 on one month of Hulu.)

If you insist on OTA, I don't know what to tell you. Broadcast TV has always sucked. It still sucks now. NBC might be the worst of the big 3.5 networks, but normal households have had cable subscriptions for about four decades now. Those who don't want to watch the Today Shitshow version of the Olympics don't really have to.
The question is why is it so hard to watch the Olympics now that you can't watch it live. It should be as easy as going to a URL and pick what you want to watch.
You mention it already - bootstrapping. Always optimising, always correcting for yet another flaw in materials, processing, environmental conditions, quality control and usage procedures. Usually, it is helpful that there are multiple ways to do a particular thing that can be used to calibrate each other. Also, there are physical processes that can produce high-quality surface finishes that can be used for calibration tasks, for example by splitting crystals. The resulting shapes are dependent on the crystal lattice, and improvements in material purity reduce any irregularities.

A more general approach is to understand measurement as a process where a minute signal has to be amplified to be more easily evaluated. There are many such methods.

In the case of surface metrology, Coherence scanning interferometry is such a method which uses the properties of interfering light waves to directly visualize surface anomalies as bands of lights. Another, more direct method is to drag a stylus across the surface and to amplify variations in position. Sort of like a turntable does.

Some of the specific content of the law is arbitrary yes, but the fact we have a law about which side people should drive on at all is motivated by a moral imperative.

Although actually neither the right or left hand side rules are arbitrary. They were each intended to better serve a moral objective.

It's really ironic that you used Main Kampf to justify your position. Mein Kampf hasn't taken over our society (though there are still plenty of people who read it), but it was an important part of the way that the Nazi's took over Germany in the 1930s.
I’m not sure what you mean by this. In phonetic transcription, rolled r is unambiguously [r]. In phonemic transcription… well, /r/ can be ambiguous depending on what language you’re transcribing, but that’s OK because phonemic transcription isn’t supposed to represent specific sounds anyway.

> make it easy to parameterise SQL values

It usually is easy to parameterize things like values used in WHERE clauses. It's often much harder to work with dynamic query conditions (e.g. optional filters on a particular column). I don't believe I've seen an approach that does this in a way that can provably provide any sort of safety guarantee.

They're using about the same amount of natgas they did 10 years ago.

I presume they will start scaling down natural gas plants at some point, but they're clearly aiming to shut down nuclear and lignite plants first.

Coping with increased electricity demand and switching off two forms of power generation entirely wasn't going to be quick but it is inevitable.
Those are used for generic in that case.

Foo<T> supports more types, often limited with certain traits they must support.

Here it's passing the actual type on instantiation, in that case there are two types: an u8 slice and a number of inputs, just guestimating the latter as I did not check the original definition in the source.

See https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch10-01-syntax.html for a better explanation.

<> is used in Rust similar to how C++ uses them in templates.

ArrayVec::new() is a generic function that takes two generic arguments: a type (&[u8; CHUNK_LEN]) and a value (NUM_INPUTS). So ArrayVec is the structure, <...> are the generic arguments (I replaced stuff with ellipses for brevity), and new() is the function call. :: is used as a "path" separator to syntactically differentiate between all these different parts.
It is the opening of a generic type parameter. In this case ArrayVec[1] takes two, a type T for the element type and a const for the maximum size of the ArrayVec. The use of ::<> is affectionately known as "the turbofish" and is a way to give the compiler type information when it can't infer it.

France has no plan on replacing them is mostly caused by political "no-decision". And indeed now we are reaching the point where we don't have the knowledge and industrial level to "jump back" into the flow.

Germany is not going back to coal, I never said that ;) Germany is indeed planning to phase out coal "by 2035" (lets see how this goes, there is an election going on). Germany is currently building natural gas plants on the other hand. Gaz that is mostly (around 45%) imported from Russia, a nice diplomatic thing they're getting into.
