Nothing about IPv6 prevents continuing to do that when it makes sense (eg to prevent cheaters from dosing their opponents).
Laughable. Under no circumstances will the US allow Taiwan's semiconductor industry to be absorbed by China.
Actually - sharing and having the photos out there is further and active victimization of the victims and does bother them. So shutting that down is a good use of resources.

Ask HN: What Happened to Boring Phone?
The recent discussions on phones got me thinking: what happened to Boring Phone?

I recall there was a kickstarter that got funded, but everything dropped off. The website hasn't been updated for a couple of years and the shop is always sold out. I presume that it never went anywhere.

We've been using F# with great success for a few projects now. Our stack is super simple.

On the backend we use F# (on .NET with ASP.NET Core) + Postgres.

On the frontend we use F# (via Fable with React and the Feliz Bindings).

And we have a huge shared library. Works like a charm.
Yeah, honestly this kind of navel gazing is super gross. Viewing the Vietnam war through that one moment really centralizes the Vietnam civil war as something American. It causes Americans to fail to examine Vietnam as the multi-decades long brutal nightmare that it was for the Vietnamese and makes it about American failure and shame.

It sublimates the incredible devastation our government wrought, the brutal corrupt colonial puppet government they propped up and the multilateral atrocities committed beneath a made for TV venere of lost American glory.

California totally dominates the fruit market. Georgia might call itself the Peach State but California produces 20 times more peaches. California produces 90% of the nation's grapes and twenty times more wine than the second-place state. It's not necessarily that you couldn't grow these elsewhere, but it is a path-dependent process by which government subsidies have pushed all this production to California and killed the industries elsewhere. Changing this so fruits and vegetables are widely produced in every state would involve an abrupt discontinuity that entrenched California growers are sure to oppose.
One aspect I don't see mentioned very often is that the FP model of computation is completely different from the model of the underlying hardware, which makes it very difficult to reason about things (and often involves putting blind hope in the compiler).
Thanks for your answer dawnerd. I will take a look at it with fresh eyes, we may have missed something :)
It's super weird you think passing costs onto consumers makes the problem go away. When a company passes costs to their consumers, consumers buy their product less, so that company loses money anyway.

AFAIK, not really.

After AAC, researchers realized that AAC produced perceptually transparent audio with excellent compression and that growing bandwidth and disk space meant there wasn't much point to further improvement in that direction.

And remember that, unlike MP3, AAC is more like an entire toolbox of compression technologies that applications/encoders can use for a huge variety of purposes and bitrates -- so if you need better performance, there's a good change you can just tune the AAC settings rather than need a whole new codec.

So research shifted in two other directions -- super low-bandwidth (like this post) for telephony etc., and then spatial audio (like with AirPods).
So react builds a tree of react elements that react dom turns into html. So this must replace react dom?

Reusable components are easy in a 3d engine like 3js. You can still program declaratively if you liked. It’s claim to outperform raw threejs is surely untrue. React is also bad for animations, and they recommend you sort of use reacts “back door” to do complex animations. 3d engines are all about animations. You could use redux easily without react if you liked. I bet you still have to learn a new API.

This doesn’t seem that useful. Am I mistaken? (Honestly curious)

Sure, but nothing will fully replace the productivity of the California central valley, which has some of the most fertile soil in the world. The Willamette valley up in Oregon is incredibly fertile as well, though it is currently too cold to grow lettuce and strawberries year round. That will change in the coming years but the Willamette valley is about the third the size. Additionally, the Pacific northwest is drought prone just like California, it's just not quite as bad yet.

The CargoLifter CL 160 I mentioned above was planned to carry 160 metric tons with a volume of up to 3,200 cubic metres.

Use of state is still widespread. `useState` is a function in the javascript-specification sense, but not in the FP sense, since its only purpose is a side effect, not the return value. I don't think react can do anything useful if you use only FP constructs.
It seems that swc is gaining more traction than esbuild, deno is using it, nextjs hired swc dev and rome is using swc too.

Also one limitation by design of esbuild is lack of customization, you cannot hook into esbuild and do your own things, but I read you could with swc.

But either way, both are way faster than the most popular ones.
100% this, it says something that the citizens of the country did not rise up when the taliban entered their cities. They did not have ‘military superiority’ entering provincial capitals. Perhaps to the afghan citizens the government was not that much better than the taliban.
> it's nice to stop driving etc but the big issue is fossil fuel consumption. That's in the hands of big money.

Driving is the biggest source of fossil fuel consumption. Where are you getting your talking points?

Think about the last time you filled up your gas tank. Let's say it's 20 gallons of gas. That's an absolutely massive massive amount of fossil fuel, if you think in terms of 5-gallon buckets.

Each gallon of gas emits 20 pounds of CO2 when burned (it gets heavier because each carbon atom gets two oxygen atoms are arched to it). That's 400 pounds of CO2.

Now let's compare that to meat. A pound of beef, something that lasts 2-10 meals, averages 20 pounds according to the all-in estimates that I've seen. (Note that the 400 pounds of CO2 from a tank of gas underestimates true emissions because it skips the 10%-50% extra energy for extraction transport and refinement, that gets cou United against beef).

Other meats, from non-ruminants that don't emit methane from digestion, have a fraction of the carbon footprint.

Run the numbers on flight, and it's about the same emissions as a single passenger gas vehicle driving that distance.

Run the numbers on your fossil gas furnace fossil gas water heater, and it's about as much as a typical car.

All the stuff you buy that's not directly fossil fuels? Tiny fraction of this all.

Climate change will not be solved by individual action. It will be solved by collective action to change everybody's behavior. Everybody. The biggest impediment to that change is politics, and the biggest impediment to political change are the forces mobilized by big money interests. But what you are repeating here plays right into their hands, not into the changes we must make to all of society.

> However let's reiterate what came from your initial post: "You think Newtonian physics is non-deterministic?"

> I have proven this statement to not be something that I think, but something that is completely true and thus I have validated what you "thought" was my initial point. That should provide some partial conclusions to your initial points and you have admitted that you agree.

I'm been aware of the dome example for some time. I didn't think such pathologies were worth discussing because they are irrelevant to the current problem, where multiple solutions for the same initial condition do not exist.

>> What there does not apply to all initial conditions with distinct mass positions?

> The theory does not apply at the singularities. You stated this yourself, no solution exists.

You are repeating what I said. Initial conditions with two or more masses at the same position don't have well-defined coefficients, so one can't meaningfully speak about there being a solution. I see no problems with determinism here.

> Can you prove to me that past the point of collision the solution is deterministic?

It doesn't make sense to talk about a solution past the point of collision. One doesn't exist.

> After the collision there are multiple outcomes that can occur depending on factors you assume and make up in your regularization scheme. All of these possible paths are governed by classical mechanical laws as they are outside of the singularity but we have several possibilities here. Or maybe not. Who knows. My claim is nobody knows. But we do know the system is still ruled by physical laws so the space of possible solutions is bounded. Basically I'm asking you to prove to me that within this space there is one deterministic unique solution.

I think this is where the root of your confusion lies. You write "after the collision there are multiple outcomes that can occur depending on factors you assume and and make up in your regularization scheme." The classical three-body problem (discussed in the article and the references I gave) is a problem about a system of differential equations. The formulation is entirely mathematical: I give you some differential equations and the initial conditions, and I want a solution. The physics only enters in the selection of those equations; once I write them down, it's a math problem. Further, it is a theorem that solutions do not exist past the point of collision.

In summary, we know rigorously there is no non-determinism in the three-body problem, because it is a theorem that the same initial condition can never give rise to two distinct solutions.
Doesn't matter if people are working on it: Efficieny of the H2 cycle is limited by physics, not engineering.

It is. Considering the kernel access often given to multiplayer games for anti cheat, and the abysmal attention to security and ability to write secure code by the average application developer, letting Internet randos send arbitrary instructions directly to your machine may not be the best idea.

If I can hazard a reason for why this is: an asteroid heading to earth is a problem you can project manage your way out of, you can allocate funds to a program and have dedicated professionals work in isolation to address it. Climate change requires us to change our energy sources, which will require changes in the incentive structures of society, it will change who the winners and losers are, which affects politicians and their donors.
Hm? I'm super-lazy game mechanic wise. I spend money. But 3 of the chacters on my team are free, and I almost never use combos because I can't be bothered to do complex stuff. I'm sure I don't maximize my damage-per-second but I still enjoy the game and defeating nearly all enemies is completely doable even with casual gaming skills.

If the critique is "I can't maximize to the absolute highest stats without paying" -- then sorry, I think that's an attitude full of false entitlement.

Heck, look at this frickin video about how they produced the Liyue OST: https://youtu.be/pFrKZxStL_U

It's certainly a lot more profitable.
There's a bit of truth to both, imo. There definitely are companies that use new technologies for management or technical management to sound good, and certainly also to attract employees perceived as being into the latest fad.
It's true. It is never enough. If $100K+ a year is not enough why not build a startup instead? I'm sure she is clever enough to do just that given being a Stanford graduate whilst being an ex-JP Morgan banker.

Facebook of all places. That is even worse and taking a reduced pay as well.

So what is the whole point of it all when you can both make significantly more by building a startup whilst also doing what you love at the same time? Why do you need to compromise with a pay cut?

I documented these steps for those who want to try the AOE 4 Beta which requires a Windows 10 PC with good graphics. But, these steps can be used for any other cloud gaming needs and is cheap to try it out (.54 USD per hour + $7 monthly for storage), and you get full access to a Windows PC. I do not work for Paperspace or Parsec or Apple, I just love the idea of cloud gaming.

Only if they were making money off the asteroid. There’d be more money to make in redirecting it. Especially if we’re talking 150+ years from now with much better space capacities.
I love optimism, and have often been accused of adhering to it myself. To some extent, it is a requirement for civilization and even life, the basis of hope.

But I've observed from decades ago that when we look at progress in science and technology, the future looks unimaginably bright, but when we look at politics and governance, it is incredibly dark. This contrast became massively magnified since 2015.

Yet, even with the ascent of anti-democratic (small-'d') forces coordinating with transnational criminal gangs masquerading as government, I have some optimism that resistance to those forces are organizing. My main question is time -- will it happen in time, or will democracy fail? If so, it'll be some very dark centuries before it rises again. But I'm still hopeful, perhaps best to refer to it as "white-knuckled optimism".

The interesting thing about switching renderers is that you are now free of the DOM.

Yes, the reason for the engine position on the 737 Max is that newer hi bypass ratio jet engines takes a lot of place.
As the original 737 was designed for flying with much smaller diameter P&W JT8D, it stands quite low on the ground with relatively short landing gear .

Thus, with newer and newer hi bypass engines , the engine pods had to be moved further up and front of the wing, which in turn changed the flight characteristics compare to the older versions. With the Max ,enough that it would have required client airlines to have to re-train their pilots on a new 737 flying differently than the original 737 they were trained for.

And here enters the infamous MCAS which was designed to keep the original 737 flight characteristics on the 737 Max, it was selling argument for the 737 Max, airlines buying it could have a « new » plane with state of the art economic engines, without having to pay for re-training their pilots.
