Whether or not overproduction or the destruction of usable surplus goods into waste is incidental or essential to capitalism is debatable, but whether or not capitalism is in fact the system of production and distribution that has created what the videographer in the OP documents really isn't.

The incentives are also very transparent. It takes no special insight or deep research to discern why grocery stores destroy edible food when they throw it out, or as happened recently in Portland, post armed guards at dumpsters. Artificial maintenance of scarcity through the destruction of overproduced goods is not a new or rare feature of the capitalism that we have.

That the volume and treatment of garbage on display here is a feature of our economic order should be no more controversial than observations about parallel features of it, like planned obsolescence.

Do you demand that people make recourse to personal experience with alternative economic systems every time someone mentions the business cycle, too?
That technique can’t fool Apple’s algorithm.

For what it’s worth, the null hypothesis is that they are just fakes and the commenter is at best trying to illustrate a point.
For me it’s the feature tiering and price discrimination that turns me off. I end up paying too much (total cost over 5 years) for too little. If you look at the business pricing it’s even dumber.

The $2 billion valuation of 1password tells the entire story. They’re overcharging for what they’re providing and I think tech people can “feel” that which is why tech communities hate the subscription BS.
If you travel through a localized clump of stars then yes, as you describe, the clump would be pancake-shaped. However, the Lorentz transform of an infinite lattice is another infinite lattice, just one in which the spacing between stars in one of the three directions is smaller. So, in particular, the average density everywhere remains uniform (no matter where you are situated within the lattice).

The reason you don’t see an isotropic distribution of light from this uniform density is the distortion due to aberration + the synchrotron effect you mention (which makes the stars in the forward direction brighter).

So, in conclusion no “critical angle” but the dots of light appear more densely concentrated toward front and they are brighter, bluer.
Why is a link to AAPS, widely known for spreading medical misinformation, on this site?

I guess the difficult part is development of the actual music/audio software and layout into sheet music/conventional notation, with the representation format only a secondary concern. No idea if MusicXML is widely used, but I'd imagine as long as it does its job of exchanging scores across apps, nobody will be too enthusiastic to reinvent new ones all the time just because.

However, you might find of interest that Charles Goldfarb, the father of SGML (and thus HTML and XML), also being a Jazz musician and lawyer, authored SMDL [1], a format that would later generalize to HyTime. Though knowing just a bit of HyTime, I think you'll be thoroughly disappointed when looking for non-verboseness ;), HyTime describing everything in markup (SGML/XML) and being regarded so impossibly complex a multimedia description format that only a single, and necessarily incomplete implementation was ever started (by Fujitsu).

Parts of HyTime are fascinating, though. Among other things, it generalizes the concept of a hyperlink into having a time dimension.

I think GP is referring to the fact that boosters are being pushed, which implies vaccine immunity is not persistent. It has certainly been pushed since when that study was published.
This is what the flag button is for.
Speaking of expired domains, in your case the domain might have not been valuable enough (not enough backlinks). But I recently saw two websites put up for sale, one was claimed to be making $4000/mo and the other $1000/mo. Both from Amazon affiliate links.

The weird thing is that neither website was in the same niche as to what it was "reviewing". For example, the resort website had a post about the "best tomato chopper". Some of the old content was kept though(taken from archive.org), probably to look more "legit" to Googlebot.

> But trying to make money from people who actually create value is not really the future of the web I want to see.

That is all business, but especially tech. FAANG all extract money from content/value creators that they have captured.

Not everyone is going to get a $500k/year job and stock options with big tech, and fewer will get millions in funding to start their own startups…but a domain for under $10 that might be used and/or flipped for a little profit? That seems much more ethical than most big tech.
I'm fully aware of how the law technically works. I'm also aware that, generally, the police more often than not have easy access to this stuff, so the result is the same.

The principle/spirit should apply everywhere, especially when it is meaningfully difficult to opt out. Since there is literally only one competitor in this space, this should generally apply.

How does that differ from 'open-source intelligence'?
It is very odd. to the point where it looks staged (Epstein kind of staged)

I wouldn't wish a job of being an officer upon anyone these days. I can only imagine what law enforcement officers' family members and loved ones are going through on daily basis

Police officers have been a recent target of a nationwide smear campaign ("pigs in a blanket, fry 'em like bacon,") and now they are a target for the terrorist group that attacked capitol, the group that supposedly came out of a social circle that was suppose to support the system and traditional institutions. Cognitive dissonance is big with this one.
at that point we've got some questions to ask about sustainability

Not at that point, though. The time to ask those questions was yesterday.
That tracks. A few months after I quit, I asked my Dad (who quit in the late eighties) when the cravings go away for good. He laughed and said "they don't."
I would guess it's the other way around, and lists that are just trying to rake in cash are much more likely to get your email because they're more willing to use shady acquisition tactics.

Anyway some friends are convinced deepfakes and "nudify" websites will compete with OnlyFans but I'm not convinced, at least in the short term.
we still need the primary antibody count up high, because we’re still in a pandemic, thus the desire for boosters.

in both vaccine induced and survivor induced immune responses, long term immune systems come online to store a memory of the disease so that on future challenge, more of those antibodies will be produced by people fairly rapidly after future exposure, even when your blood stream isn’t full of covid antibodies anymore.

When there are this many cases floating around, though, you can't afford to wait for the spin-up time.

If i'm asking for the same image every 500ms from your webserver, do you want to go to disk every damn time, or are you gonna cache it? Same deal, kinda.

Rust's Vector
Nice! Would have been nicer if they also included some of the unused spectrum just below and above 11 meters that some operators have been using illegitimately forever. There is enough room above and below for at least another 20 channels, perhaps 40 more. This change will cause people to step on each other with a modulation that existing radios can't understand, prompting people to buy new radios and that is exactly what Cobra and President Electronics were lobbying the FCC for. Still a good change in my opinion.
Natural immunity may work better considering the vaccine requires booster shots every 12 months according to the Pfizer CEO.

Isaac Arthur on YouTube talks about this quite a bit.

Given limitless cheap energy like nuclear fusion, the ultimate limit on human population is not land or water but the waste heat that we generate. We're very far from that being an issue today, but in some dystopian future where we turn earth into Coruscant, that could be a thing.

I hope instead we stabilize our population or move to settlements in orbit. I'd like to see the land we currently use for food to be rewilded in a world where we can grow food in orbit and in vertical farms / artificial food factories. It would be nice if future humans mostly lived in cities or space habitats and the earth mostly went back to nature.
I've used this library in the past for prototyping a project to extract Chinese subtitles from youtube videos in a chrome extension. It worked pretty well. The only problem is the library couldn't really handle realtime video. Can't really fault it for that though I was sending it every frame. The throughput was good but latency kept increasing probably because I was giving it to much data.

There's a mode where you can increase the number of worker threads. Tesseract is also designed for text documents and the preprocessing filter I made to convert the images to look more like a text document was pretty naive.

I'm taking an online computer vision class next semester and hope to pick the project back up after learning a bit more.
You need a system, the fuel storage tanks scale with energy storage. Also, mining might eventually allow you to scale, but still requires equipment.
Off topic but...Does anybody else find the use of large percentages to show growth as annoying as I do?

1000% is an 11x increase but to see that easily you have to enumerate the values 100% = 2x, 200% = 3x, ... , 1000% = 11x or do a quick inductive proof.

Why not just say 11x? The article pointed out that Asian LNG prices increased six-fold.

Please stop spreading misinformation. IMO 15 weeks is not long enough to determine if its durable and persistent. There would be no talk of booster shots if what your saying is true.
We've banned this account for repeatedly breaking the site guidelines and ignoring our requests to stop. Regardless of how you feel about domain squatting, you can't abuse HN like this.

If you don't want to be banned, you're welcome to email hn@ycombinator.com and give us reason to believe that you'll follow the rules in the future. They're here: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html.
Very true, I take back my very flawed analogy.

This makes me want to watch the wework doc that just dropped. I obviously have much to learn about the whole deal.
If I understand correctly, it means that the immune system launches an immediate response to the new infection, it doesn't mean that the immune system successfully defeats the new infection, just makes it more likely. And then there's the problem of variants.
I kinda disagree. Highways are usually real barriers within cities. So much so that, if a city made the mistake of running highways through itself or along its waterfront, it's now worth it to spend billions burying the thing or building some kind of giant elevated park on top.
That powder is a trade secret. Every year they make it finer, to coat your taste buds more perfectly and have a more intense flavor. But nobody is questioning if eating microscopic particles of (what?) is healthy or has side effects. It's tasty! Don't get between me and my Cheetos!
I created my business with a not common name. There was a .com for it. I have been trying to buy it for 14 years. The person wants over $1500 for it, when I believe its only worth maybe $200. I check every year to see if it fails to renews, but no such luck. And the site is just squatted - at one point just ads and now just a "please buy me!". So since then I use other domains, with the full business name or .biz etc. It still annoys me from time to time.
not so, see my other thread in this story here, and cool it on the personal attacks, thanks!

Love the idea behind loan free education! Have considered similar ideas previously and worked a bit with Khan Academy.

At what stage is this project currently? Where do you need help and support?
That is false. So was your other false claim that I replied to (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28093879).

Please stop creating accounts to break HN's rules with.
My point was that the expression could be one sixth the length and contain no more than two parentheses, from what I gather. Hence the question what the purpose of constructing this expression was - it just looks like somebody facerolled their numpad and then made random edits until the syntax was ok.

Checklist for Non-violent Direct Action trainings
I've never understood why anyone who takes security seriously would even consider a non-self-hosted (and non-open-source) password manager, especially after the recent Apple shenanigans. If it's not open-source and self-hosted then your security is entirely dependent on the good will of your provider. If they decide to screw you, they can. And it's not just the good will of the people running your provider today that you have to bet on, it is the continued good will of whoever ends up running your provider tomorrow or after they get acquired. It seems like a bad bet to me in the long run.
It was a different time. The people writing these things were more nerdy and more mature. The social internet hadn't taken over. People weren't concerned with votes, stars, comments, likes, splashiness, attention, or trading funny pictures of cats. You could take your time to write something considered just because you needed to get the information down. Software projects were idealistic because most software out there was proprietary and expensive; paid software was an entrepreneurial risk, and free software was transgressive.

If a culture is popular, it tends to saturate. The old internet simply couldn't compete with the new one.
Bundled hiring to double the effectiveness of your hiring process
I do. And I have taken pains to generally keep their pictures in my control, and out of databases that I have no access to, and this measure would make this more difficult.

I acknowledge that the horrible circumstances used for the justification of this bad policy exist, and sometimes are marginally helpful, but the balancing test for me isn't particularly close.

Especially knowing, that at present - the facial recognition technology is not good at recognizing people who look like me and my kids, and presently harms us perhaps even more than it helps (yeah, we're black.)
That's childish, and doesn't belong here on HN.
Bit of an overreaction. Stating that the testing period of 15 weeks is, in your opinion, too short to determine long-term immunity would’ve sufficed as comment.

No need to be uncivil to eachother when you don’t agree.
What exactly is an addiction? Am I a Hacker News addict?
I’m still learning, but the concept of “sterilizing immunity” has started to come up recently. What I infer from cursory reading is that “immunity” means the body will mount an immune response immediately upon exposure to the virus, but it doesn’t mean that an infection won’t take hold. “Sterilizing immunity” means immunity strong enough to prevent the virus from growing at all.

The issue at hand is that those who have been vaccinated and/or recovered from COVID seem to be able to contract the disease again, even to the point where they can be infectious to others, even if they don’t get terribly ill or even show symptoms.
It's $10 per year.

Is it really worth your time forking it to remove licence checks, when you could instead support the developers and not need to make any code changes?

Forking the code and removing licencing checks is perfectly permissible under the GPL. But it's pretty unreasonable in this case.
Agreed. But its not crazy to imagine it could soon exist, and could be a good idea to deploy at that time.
Vaccine immunity IS "natural" immunity. It works the same way, by exposing the body's immune system to virus components such that they product a response. The only difference is that with a vaccine those components don't add up to a viable organism.

But yes: expect newer vaccines tailored to currently-circulating strains to appear; the existing mRNA vaccines produce copies of the spike protein sequenced more than a year ago. That's what we've done for influenza for decades, though not with the same kind of precision.
I would assume the reason most people would use this is to spoof simple “trial period” checks on older software. I remember, as a kid, setting the clock back on shareware in order to run the full version. This would make it more convenient since you don’t have to alter system time.
>we can contribute to a larger discussion of how we all live in this world going forward, to have a more successful existence on this Earth, by studying ancient societies like those in prehistoric Thailand that were enduring, resilient, and peaceful.

Counterpoint to the quote: There's also an idealistic bent in archeology/humanities where they do everything they can to build a narrative of a Matriarchal Eden in the past. The evidence is spotty at best and evidence like this are exceptions that highlight norm.
There was another submission a few minutes ago in the same light. It linked to an article about how Big Tech companies are censoring doctors and decide what is accurate medical information. It was removed.
Couldn't you have isolated the expressions that resulted in differences? That should have allowed narrowing it down to a minimal example...

Why are you trolling this thread and shilling vaccines? Does the sight of people discussing the wonder of our natural immune system bother you?
Often true, but this was a specific case and there are a lot of red or blue focused middlemen.
I do it, daily, for several years now. In fact, I’ve left the industry entirely as a result of what I personally view as a complete lack of ethics on the part of every tech company.

Ask HN: How many of you are quitting over return to office?
Midway through the pandemic, I was hopeful that work wouldn’t just go back to how it was before, now that more people were aware they could be perfectly productive working remote. Fast forward to now and almost all major companies I can think of are at best doing a hybrid system, which IMO is just a way to soften the blow of returning to office full time. There’s been a bunch of articles and HN posts about quitting for remote, but how many of you are actually doing it?
Soon, your devices, smartphones, laptops and watches are going to have a political opinion.

They are the little brothers reporting your 'thinking' to big brother to see if they will ban you or not.
Hum, I'd like to read more about this. I find hard to believe that the current atmospheric conditions are completely unrelated to the rise of oxygen attributed to photosynthesis, and that they can only be explained by anthropic selection (which is always a possible explanation anyway).
Damn you got downvoted real quick.
Am I missing something, or is that just a lot of words just to say "let's save some money by combining two positions into one"?
Sorry this is incomplete, but "Natural Immunity" means a person's immune system will mount an effective response to an infectious agent. However, that person may still be infected, and may be contagious to some degree while the body is fighting off the contagion.

I'm not a doctor or biologist, but I've been learning over the past year. For instance, people generally think of things like "infected", "sick", and "contagious" as being the same thing (or nearly the same thing). If you're talking about one person in everyday context, that's fine. If you're talking in a clinical or epidemiological context, you have to be more careful.
Yeah, a free trial.

It's a niche statistical analytics programming language. Used by banks and pharmaceutical companies mostly because it makes it easier to audit things. The open source alternative would be R.
You need a part of the system anyway so you can't count those parts (water tanks, hydrogen tanks, oxygen tanks, electrolyzer) into any of the power options. They will be there regardless of whether you want them or not.

Also I've noticed that despite of what ben_w claims the article says, the article still assumes 100 kWh/t for a battery system and 1 MWh/t for a fuel cell system. So it doesn't really say that "the dry mass of the fuel cells would mass similar to LiIon of the same energy storage capacity", otherwise the numbers would be in the opposite order.
Somehow \mbox is the opposite though (see the examples) : https://www.tutorialspoint.com/tex_commands/mbox.htm

Honestly I think I am missing all the points about brackets in Latex, if somebody knows the Syntax (and the 'why' pls tell me).
I think your post and the reply of the previous poster is a perfect example of why comma's are important.

You meant a "green, light-absorbing dye" (using hyphens to make the distinction clearer), the previous poster understood "a green-light absorbing dye".
Honestly, the easiest way to make money is through passive incomes. This may not work for the timeframe you're considering, but I do recommend a book called "The Wealthy Barber." It summarizes basic personal investment strategies, using the story of a small-town barber who ended up being independently wealthy by making sound and practical investments.

Obviously it's easier if you inherit money -- but this book makes the case that if you simply set aside chunks of your paycheck for investment, and invest it wisely and patiently, you eventually realize exponentially compounding returns. (The best advice I ever got was to max out my contributions to my company's 401K plan -- because it had a "company match" which was basically free money.) That got me a stake in a stock market which was rising fast. And then over the years (thanks to compounding interest) that money doubles and then doubles again in value...
