America must have terrible food in 7-11 if they can reach this level of hyperbole, and the sandwiches are awful, like most western food in Japan they’re not really western food at all, just something in the shape of the original but made to be as soft as Japanese rice.

Hurling racist slurs at your coworkers is not getting the "job done well". Manufacturing is not a solo activity.
They probably are quite similar. I never paid for anything on Medium though and usually clicked away as soon as they showed me their forced sign up page.

It's not exactly the platform which I like here (Substack). It's the content by the people I subscribe to which I like. If they moved to another paid platform in future, I would follow them. Last year I stopped following corporate media and decided to put my money where I really wanted to support, so I went with the substacks of these independent journalists/commentators I value. When Glenn Greenwald resigned from The Intercept, that was what finally got me to start paying for people I wanted to support.
This incident has nothing to do with "CRA overreach". Not only was the employee addressed w/ the "n-word" by his supervisors, the plant was scrawled with swastickas and "other hate signs" and supervisors did nothing to address this. There are ways that this could be considered illegal, even beyond the CRA itself.
The problem is there are conflicting problems with energy efficiency.

How much energy is used to build and maintain the building.

Can the building function as a building people want to use - if just sits empty its a huge waste of energy. Removing all the windows would help but wouldn't be very appealing.

And lastly ventilation is probably of of the most tricky, it's very easy to create an energy efficient sealed box, but how do you create a healthy environment - older buildings are drafty but it comes with health benefits and keeps the building dry by allowing moisture to escape. The answer is normally a complex HVAC system but that then uses power and requires maintenance.
This is false. Up until now, iCloud photos are encrypted in transit and in store but can be decrypted with Apples own key. There is no e2ee.

What Union?

The US? GDP of the UK is close to 3 Trillion USD.

Ohio, NJ, Nebraska, Maine, and Florida combined have a lower GDP.

in fact, it seems like California is the only state which has a higher GDP than the UK.

In the Foundation series by Isaac Asimov this exact meme is lampooned.

A character describes how they went to the library, read all the old books, wrote a paper and called it new research.

Dr Asimov may have seen the bleak future of academia, what with it being his other trade.

Mayhap we need more Dr Indiana Jones types with tenure?
>White men received preferential assignments while women were frequently undermined and denied promotions and pay increases despite equal or greater work and contributions.

Why point out the race of the men, and not the women? If the women were also white, then race was not a factor.

Do you have some sources to back this claim up?

As someone who spent 30 years in the UK (give or take) before moving to the US, and having lived on both coasts and in the south, something does not sit right about this assertion. Perhaps by unadjusted income it might technically be true, but I suspect not once adjusted for the reality of cost of living.
I don't think this is an issue anymore. It's really straight-forward with flexboxes or a grid.
I just want to say that HN continues to surprise and amaze me. An article about pitcairn is upvoted (amazing enough in itself) and then we get a decendent of the original mutineers chime in and offers to contact their cousins on the island for specific answers.
Is this using the m2m API they recently introduced? Where you host a kind of API shim in your infrastructure? To me the pricing of it seems pretty steep if you want to give each service it’s own key?

There's not much difference with California, as far as I can see. I used https://smartasset.com/taxes/california-tax-calculator#uV2Hg... to compare a $100,000 salary in California to £80,000 in the UK. You get to keep approximately 70% of your pay in both cases (and that's ignoring health insurance costs).

Taxes are a bit higher in the UK, especially once you get up to higher pay brackets. However, there seems to be a persistent myth on HN that the UK has much higher taxes than the US. (Perhaps it just gets lumped in with the rest of Europe in people's minds?)

Another poster mentions VAT. It's worth noting that unlike with a sales tax, VAT does not apply to every purchase. But certainly it does make some things more expensive in the UK than in the US.

> One important thing this analysis of public data misses is tipping. A substantial proportion of the top accounts’ revenue comes from tips

I suppose this makes the whole headline somewhat dubious.
Raw cash figures really don’t mean much.

When you consider cost of living, wealth distribution, money controlled by trillion dollar corporations (mostly in the US), infrastructure, health care, etc, dollars become an unequal scale. The bottom 20% of British society probably does much better than the bottom 20% of Americans. The difference is likely more stark with the bottom 10%.

The UK might have a average lower household income than West Virginia, but virtually nobody could really say West Virginia is better off than the UK.
I don't recall the documentary predicting that by 2021 Florida would be underwater -- however many parts of Miami are indeed experiencing "sunny day flooding" as the ocean is claiming land.
Data cost plunges these days with self-supervised and semi-supervised learning. You don't need annotated and clean data anymore, there is abundance of it. Projects like Voxpopuli or Gigaspeech with 400 thousand hours (100 times more than Mozilla's) of data easily available.
> promising to take three weeks off the planning permissions process for developers who commit to posting actual energy usage to an online database

I’m all for posting actual results to an online (and public) database. I’m opposed to projects who don’t do that having an arbitrary three week delay in planning permissions. (If you can safely cut three weeks from some projects at the developer’s option, either you’re cutting corners on those projects or needlessly delaying the others.)
There's a history of restrictions over specific information, including specific numbers and quantities, or descriptions of items.

We know most of them through exception --- casses in which restrictions were ultimately overcome (the 1979 publication of schematics for a hydrogen bomb by Progressive being a notable instance: https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1979/03/10/m...)

Free speech is an ideal, not an absolute. There are considerations under which speech can be and is restricted. Those boundaries shift with time, and specific decisions may later be found inspired or wanting. It's a genuinely complex domain, and simply declaring "free speech" is nowhere near sufficient in addressing the questions raised.
You don't have to.

And yes, I wish there were a way you could opt out of paying for manned spaceflight via your taxes, because that would mean that I could opt out of paying for things that I don't want to pay for.

Should this be compared to a “job” or to YouTube or Podcasts? I’d expect there to be a tiny majority making a living, then another tiny majority making anything more than peanuts, and finally a massive tail of accounts that are inactive, only posts sporadically and so on.

It would be interesting to see the stats for users that actually try to live off it, such as a set of accounts publishing at least X hours of material per week for the last 100 weeks.
> documented, well tested, opinionated, popular solution

The problem I found is when less experienced developers build hacks in and then all of the above attributes fly out the window. All the custom glue code kinda renders the use of a framework more of a hindrance.

But yes, fully agree. Don't start with the technology, start with the problem that is to be solved.
That might depend a lot on the country you are in/from.

The huge majority of (similar aged) people I had meet between 16-20 which had been obese where so because of "health issues" not directly related to them eating unhealthy being lazy.

As such it's not surprising if you have problems changing it because "just" eating healthy and doing sports is far from enough to fix it. And trying to fix it with that is often a task needing far more discipline and self control then the large majority of humans (independent of weight) have.

I mean let's be honest the difficulty many of this people face is way higher then the difficulty for a young(1) health male to get a black belt in Judo, Karate or similar.

(1): Start training with ~14 or earlier, through not necessary with high commitment, then at some point later (e.g. 16,18,20) added commitment trying to get a black belt.
It seems like alot of things like this just get finished and optimal at some point, but there's still a few people whose salary depends on changing it, so it will just keep getting changed, good changes or no.

Completely anecdotal, but I’ve seen many colleagues with different backgrounds live in the US for a few years and come back significantly heavier - so the detail about Xand living there really struck me.
I'm not sure why we keep going in circles, either. The first few words of my post made it clear that I understand the utter banality and lack of sense in the point:

Obviously it's not interesting and isn't actually saying anything, since carbon is so general and fundamental as a building block on Earth.

I was speaking thematically or poetically. We generally don't refer to ourselves as "atom-based lifeforms" or "quark-based lifeforms", but we often do refer to ourselves as "carbon-based lifeforms". I could elaborate, but hopefully that captures what I'm referring to, here. It's mostly a matter of wordplay, not matter.

This sounds like something from a sci-fi novel.

The only tangible new thing in production is the Angara heavy rocket that will replace Protons. It's an actual thing that exists and flies. There is also a new piloted ship (Eagle/Federation) in development tailored for Angara, but I don't expect to see it in serial production until late 2020s.

Beyond these two things, everything else is basically concept art.
This may be true north of the M4, but in the south west of England things are even more out of whack. The average salary in Bath (used as an example because it’s the last place in the UK I lived), for example, does not come close to allowing even tech workers to buy a house by normal mortgage lending parameters.
Thanks for the feedback, I totally agree with this. We often see this mindset but its a matter of education or push the product from non-technical teams.

I would probably class myself as someone with an addictive personality. not with drugs (except alcohol), but with anything - if I like something, I find it very hard to not have more, wether it's good or bad. eg going to the gym 6x week or getting takeaways every day

I've analsysed this for sometime and the best (for me) way of dealing with it is to keep track of every thing I do or I like.

Alcohol is a depressant - it gradually wanes your higher cognitive skills over the course of hours. Very convenient when one's thoughts are racing. I believe there's no causation in "drinking once" -> "drinking more". I believe there's causation in "trying to self medicate" -> "drinking".
A lot of poor performance in the wild comes from not batching operations that can be batched, thus increasing latency unnecessarily.

Utilization of the CPU's cache line is just one instance of this problem.

For example, imagine trying to parse a text file by literally reading one character at a time from the OS (literally issuing a 'read' command per character) vs reading the entire file upfront and then operating on the text in memory.

Even the if we assume OS does caching for disk data to minimize the actual number of reads from disk, you will still incurs at least an unnecessary cost from issuing all the sys calls (one per character).

The same can be said about, for example, issuing sql commands, and other things.
That is correct. The children within the images that are classified as CSAM don't necessarily have (though frequently are) to be abused.

For example, the NCMEC database contains hashes for Nirvana's Nevermind cover. Completely innocent to possess within it's original and intended context.

I have not said whether I agree with this, because I do see problems when automating the process.

However, the precedent for it being used as a flag for law enforcement has already happened. Having a collection of similar imagery is considered CSAM - and that is likely correct. A collection is probably not innocent. But having one or two images may happen incidentally without your awareness of it.

As to who decides what constitutes significance? That is where you'll hit the most problems, and reasonable discussion of it will be quickly shut down with the same arguments used for automating a flagging system. The conversation requires nuance, but those currently calling for such systems aren't interested in a good faith discussion.

Japanese convenience stores have been a mined-out topic for _years_. Where is the coverage of the rest of Asia? Taiwanese convenience stores are actually more impressive imo, with a dizzying array of additional services. In China, the convenience store industry was already booming in recent years, with a diverse mix of foreign and domestic brands, and it has been growing even faster thanks to covid. Which sounds like an actually newsworthy topic, rather than the hundredth article about Japan. I have absolutely nothing against Japan but it is disappointing how it's the only East Asian country whose culture Americans care to look at.
So... the punchline here seems to be the median revenue per content creator. Except:

1) The denominator is skewed by a large number of people who signed up but aren't seriously pursuing it, and may not even be active.

2) The numerator is skewed by the fact that this omits tips entirely, and much of the sample is missing the subscription price or the number of subscribers, so numbers had to be guessed.

So in other words, the $145/mo was calculated by taking one number we know is wrong, and dividing by another number we know is wrong. ...offhand, I'm not sure I've obtained any information about the expected earnings of someone trying to post content to OnlyFans.

I have to give props to the author; they're quite clear in the analysis section that they're missing all the data they need ("...many accounts don't have their number of fans available", "[using likes] as a proxy for number of fans [...] is likely an underestimate", many accounts had several subscription tiers). But given all the caveats, I don't think there's anything left to conclude.
Related: in my country it's common for young kids (say under 6 or 7) to go to the beach naked. I always find it a bit disturbing that Americans consider it obscene, because it means they sexualise it...?

I would amend this and say, "in the wrong hands, and with insufficient experience, Web development is bizarre and overly complex"

It’s certainly an interesting wee fact but I don’t think it says anything about whether the UK should be considered more or less meritocratic. I think it’s a fig leaf where we get to pretend we are a super progressive country that is smashing its class system, while doing very little to that effect.

To be clear - I don’t care where David Cameron, Theresa May, Boris et al send their kids to school. I care that such schools exist effectively to officially stamp you as a member of the upper class.

Edit: I hope this doesn’t sound like I’m annoyed with you or the original commenter! I have some strong feelings about this but I am aware that you didn’t create this system, that you are not standing up for it or trying to protect it.

That difference is a very significant one.

The scanning either happens on devices that the company owns, the cloud servers, or it happens on a device that the consumer owns, without the consumer being able to control it.
That doesn't mean it's not true, though. Obese people do lose a lot of weight when they undereat and depressive people do profit from outside activity, sports, etc.

It's just that life often looks like you cannot do it for various reasons. The complicated thing is of course to find a tiny crack in that bubble of constraints where you can force a change.

Just an example: For many people it would be beneficial to ride a bike to get to work. This alone won't change your body completely, but it is a great start, losing you a couple of hundreds of kcal per day and encouraging more bike tours. But that's obviously not possible for everyone and it is difficult to tell from the outside whether someone just rejects this approach because they are lazy or for valid reasons.
