Cast iron has thermal mass. It will cool down the least when food is added. It also will not buckle like, say, a thinner carbon steel pan.

This is important if you want to get the pan hot and for it to stay hot. Common for searing large cuts of meat.

I would argue that google is being used incorrectly here. Google is specially being asked for a product list which meets a certain criteria. The user is asking Google to recommend the best bikes..

The user is actually looking for authoritative bicycle reviews to make a purchasing decision. Searching for “bicycle reviews” would give a far higher chance of finding what the user is after. They can then use the criteria on the review site to narrow down what they are after.

There is also a limit to what searching will get you. Going to a bike shop will allow an expert in this subject matter to assess your personal requirements and advise accordingly. For a lot of things, going out and talking to someone will yield far better results than Google ever will.

Delta is already worse among younger people. That means younger people, not just children, will be infected and affected more. Having unvaccinated children at school also makes future school closures more likely.

We have to reach a point where Covid becomes endemic and we, people, society, are good to love with it. We will reach this point quicker the faster we vaccinate everyone. I guess we can agree school closures are not so good thing, right?
It's bullshit concept used as weapon by proponents of victimhood culture to bash anyone they deem "privileged". Don't you find peculiar that this "little aggression" can be unintentional? And of course deciding what are "hostile, derogatory, or negative attitudes" depends solely on "offended" party.

Some examples of "microagressions": avoiding eye contact when speaking to someone, telling someone they are articulate, denying that you are racist, color (race) blindness, assuming someone's gender, asking a girl whether she has a boyfriend (she might be lesbian, you bigot), calling undocumented migrants illegals, saying that someone's name is difficult to pronounce, calling your boss crazy...
"While not getting vaccinated doesn't seem to serve any valid purpose"

Well the "doesn't seem" is crux of the matter, isn't it? For whatever reason for those who don't want the vaccine, the vaccine does take something real away from them. Something they value more than the statistical benefit of getting jabbed. They might not be able to elucidate it well, but it's very real for them.

A common question of the Poverty Probability Index is roof type. PPI asks the respondents 10 simple questions.

ie. Mali is - Do you own a table, bed, iron, buy sugar, district, number in house, roof type, floor type, cooking fuel, English literacy. It's simple and multiple choice.

I'm not sure what you can do with just roof type but it also would be interesting to measure.
> They spend all their energy chasing experiences instead of saving for the future.

This is a horrible meme, and evades logic. I’m incredibly happy that millennials and onwards understand the value of the present, more then the promise of some magical future.
But then one got to wonder why not spend that time learning in the wild. People have forgotten how it works I suppose. It would take less energy.

There are a few options to learn a language. Some say immersion. What's most effective for the brain to capture and memories is _needs_.

We tend to learn languages out of a desire to add them to our skill belt. Or out of fun. And we are having a hell of a time this way. Duolingo innovates and will happily monetize their effort.

Learn a language? Move to the country where it's spoken. Get a job where interactions are a necessity, but where one would perform to some level without even the basics. Think kitchen porter in a buzzing restaurant. 6 months later you are fluent, and have actually learnt local expressions and the way people actually communicate. From there you can read books and ramp up your vocab to proper fluency.

I took English, by force, for 12y , 4h per week. I could still barely read, and in no way get a face to face conversation even started other than hello, what time is it.

Months in an environment where communication was a need, and suddenly I found myself nearly fluent. Never having to open a grammar manual or do extra effort for the sake of learning.

The teaching models are flawed. They are designed to extract a profit, at the detriment of the learners.
That first pkill/killall example is a bit silly, but for the others I can see how a "ruby-each-line" can be useful, especially if you're already familiar with Ruby (although I'd probably name it "el", as that's much less typing). I never really learned awk properly myself either, in spite of being quite familiar with most other shell tools. "ruby-each-line" does more or less the same thing as awk.

After all, there's just one person using your shell: you. So whatever works well for you is a "good" solution.

I think you have an overly optimistic view of sea turbines.

They're more expensive, require more infrastructure (pylons and electricity lines aren't conflict free either) and there are a lot of conflicts around use of seawaters. And for a country like Germany there simply isn't enough space within the north sea and baltic sea for all the wind power we'll need.

(And to be clear: I'm 100% supportive of offshore wind energy, I just think it's entirely unrealistic to assume that could be a replacement for onshore wind. We need both.)

I agree, and I‘ve read the opinion too that it‘s a problem people have with DDG. Yet google doesn’t feel excellent at that. Could it be worth competing with google there? I‘m not gonna say it‘s "easy", but maybe worthwhile and possible?

I don‘t think I have used more than 1000 different sites in all development searches ever. It‘s the stack exchange network, github, official documentation, non-github official issue tracking/communities and some high quality blogs. That seems very manageable. You could probably index that into one elasticsearch and one sourcegraph instance. Add a little more specific faceted search, add back powerful and precise query syntax and still maintain "just past in whatever and hit the first result" functionality. I‘m likely underestimating the breadth of other developer needs than my own. I don‘t know.

According to [1] there are only Covid and Ebola approved vaccines based on an Adenovirus vector. Only for the latter we have a couple of years of data and I am not sure whether it has been administered to large populations.

> Gas is much cheaper per joule than electricity.

There is actually a tip-over point. For a given price for gas, and a given price for electricity, each will be more economical at different points because the efficiency of heat pumps (for heating) is a function of the external temperature.

There are calculations that can be done to determine this point:

I've been learning to recognize when I've been presented with a solution, rather than a need. Often times the solution answers the need, but lacks knowledge of either side effects, implementation time needed, holes in leaky abstractions, or something else that makes it less than ideal. Walking back to the need helps in proposing a better solution.

To the best of my knowledge, the fact that thrombosis is a (rare) side effect of Astra Zeneca and Johnson is pretty thoroughly established. It's a pretty specific type of thrombosis, and afaik it doesn't occur eg. for the Biontech and Moderna vaccines.

I know there's a lot of misinformation about the vaccines going the rounds, but that doesn't mean that all reports of side effects are made up or statistical noise.
They give a vague description of their data collection process here: https://www.similarweb.com/corp/ourdata/ I bet the raw data is pretty noisy (since most HN users probably won't e.g. allow a shady extension to report their browsing habits, Similarweb is likely only seeing a small sample of all traffic) but as long as the noise is uncorrelated with the demographics they're tracking, they can probably arrive in the right ballpark.

Or you could just ask dang: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27656775 Although I'm pretty sure he said something like "Last I checked, about 50% of HN readers were in the US" a few years ago as well, so I don't know whether that info is up to date.

What do you mean by free? Completely free as in Mad Max? Because unless you mean that free, then obviously there are some rules.

Now, I don't think measuring the effectiveness of those rules, to maintain the efficiency of the market, should have much to do with cardinality, but you're right that just adding more rules to handle edge cases simply leads to a more complex and likely more fragile ecosystem.

> How did one company get so big and change all the rules in farming?

How did all the usual automakers got away with the same copyright/DMCA hard-to-repair shit? Market forces. Race to the bottom.

> It’s hard to believe John Deere is the only company to buy from

Likely there are others, who likely pull the same shit.

> If that’s the case shouldn’t they accept the product as it instead of trying to get legislators to change the rules?

Of course this is a possibility. Or they can start their own company. Or they can ask other established machine manufacturers to venture into farming machinery hoping that that will help. And so on.

But basically what's happening is this group of farmers discovered politics, and they are now trying to persuade society/legislators/regulators/power-brokers to fine tune that "freedom" to include repairability.

Basically it's an economic argument against rent (in the economic sense). Because these buyers argue that they are basically in a quasi-monopolistic market, and thus the profits extracted from them (via these stunts) are a lot higher than they should be.

Of course we can say that who cares, just raise the price of produce, grains, etc... raise the already enormous amount of agriculture subsidies, let John Deere pocket this extra. After all, it's on the stock market, apparently there's no big private stockholders, majority ownership is by a bunch of funds. (There's a ~10% private equity too, it seems.)
Except that would kind of invalidate all the training data they've gathered for the last years which does not have data for these sensors. That would be a major setback and might take years to fix. Probably they started ignoring the radar sensor content quite some time ago when they realized they did not need it. They never had any lidar.

Obstacle detection with lidar/radar is only interesting if you assume that object avoidance is a problem with camera based obstacle detection right now. There are lots of incidents with Teslas but I don't recall them running over pedestrians or crashing into vehicles a lot. Mostly incidents are about misinterpreting visual signals; not about crashing into stuff. If anything, their safety statistics are pretty good when autopilot is on. The cars still do dangerous/illegal/misguided things due to misinterpreting of traffic situations but it's then smart enough to get the driver out of trouble before bad things happen.
As far as i can think back i always had this weird thing that i heard something like distant voices whenever there was some monotonous background noise in the room (e.g. a fan running or so)... sometimes i could swear that someone called me from downstairs or from the neighbouring room, but in 99% of the cases nobody was there. Though... never spoke with a doctor about this, i just accepted it as one more fact on the "i am sometimes weird" list.
I forgot to say that what you said is perfectly reasonable and not too different form my initial reaction. This is indeed very weird (but cool) science. :)

My high school teacher did explain many of the things commenters are complaining they were never taught. Gave bits of history, talked about summing very small pieces, apologies to speed and acceleration, etc, etc.

And calculus was still very difficult to understand and warp your head around. And as a high schooler, the history seemed like a sidetrack.

I guess my point is, this stuff is difficult no matter how you slice it and it needs time, reflection and retelling in order to make sense.
Building little audio gizmos is fun. I recommend using replacement smartphone speakers (eg for the iPhone SE 2020) if size is an issue, because a bare chassis without an enclosure sounds like crap due to acoustic short-circuit.

Another option is LCD TV speakers, those already have an enclosure but are a bit larger.

Not sure where you live but I'm in Australia. In Europe or North America, I hear virtually no birds. In Australia and including in my suburban backyard, there are loads of birds - songbirds, parrots/lorikeets/cockatoos, magpies. I have an acacia (with parasitic growths that birds visit for berries) and loads of fruit trees among other things that attract birds. We have no shortage of birds.

But this is Australia and there are many spiders - trees, ground, adapted to the urban environment, etc. Huntsmen, red backs, black house spiders, white-tailed, orb weavers, wolf spiders, mouse spiders, etc. Every alcove or cavity or pipe has a spider. Go out with a headlamp at night, and the eyes of wolf spiders reflect back at you from everywhere. Spiders live in all the rear-view mirrors of my cars, and under the rear wiper blades. Multiple spiders live in the frame of each window and sliding door, at all times. From my travels, I'm convinced we have a far more noticeable urban spider population than say Europe or the US.

The urban environment here is flooded with spiders. Corrugated iron is perfect for them, creating a cavity every inch or two the length of a building. Multiple spiders live on every chair of my outdoor setting. Not much of the back verandah does not have continually refreshed spider detritus hanging underneath eaves. If I turn a spadeful in the garden when it's dry, multiple wolf spiders emerge and try to resettle.

Admittedly our gifted spider hotel is small (size of a box of cereal), but it only takes one spider to crawl a scrappy web across it, and it's not going to be of much use to insects.

In my 40+ years, I've found one wasp nest with entombed spiders (mostly large orb weavers). But you can't move around here without encountering a spider. Maybe an insect hotel stands a better chance elsewhere in the world, but here it is trivial for every cavity to be controlled even by one spider, and I'm pretty confident spiders are not in desperate need of more housing opportunities.
> That's difficult to do, as the insects work in the dark

I remember when I started keeping bees, this was a big moment of realization for me. They do everything in the dark, including their waggle dances. I’ve been even more impressed with these little marvels since then.

I guess many people do that, but it shows the review system failed miserably when you look for quality information on reddit. I mean, in theory, reddit would have all kinds of noise and fake opinions, whereas Amazon etc. should have only verified and curated reviews, including methodologies for spotting abuse and procedures for manual verification. Well, the economics of scale that drives them insane profits is also the cause they lost this battle.

People have a very simplistic view of nature vs industrial. That could make sense in some untouched part of the Nevada desert. But a lot of the world it is just more complicated than that. We act like the landscape is untouched, unblemished and static when it is not!

People don't like their view to change and equate that emotional impact with more substantive impact to nature. Landscape does matter, but not very much in comparison to more pressing matters. I think future generations will shake their heads at our willingness to pander to emotion.
> this isn't one of those cases.

Reading all of the replies and context around the solutions, you're right that it doesn't appear to be one of those cases. But I don't think it was that clear cut from the original question.

The counter to this is, I believe, much much more common on SO: someone comes up with an odd solution to a problem in their head, tries to implement said solution, runs into challenges and comes to SO asking for help making their solution work. That then leads to over-engineered workarounds for hurdles they would not have encountered had they asked for help with their actual problem.
