> A lot of ocean water is already covered by something else with albedo: clouds. Particularly in the poles, clouds tend to form very easily.

You are wrong.

Antarctica is the driest place on Earth. https://www.google.com/search?q=driest+continent+on+earth

"Antarctica is the driest continent; it is almost entirely desert. Very little snow or rain falls on the continent (...)"

Dry == not much cloud cover.

And if there are ice crystals in atmosphere it mostly shows as haze, it is not effective at reflecting large portion of the sunlight.

Clouds form from moisture from evaporating water. This usually requires warm water to be significant. In northern hemisphere this warm water is supplied by Gulf Stream.

Also, as a side note, clouds are not nearly as effective at reflecting energy back to space as snow is.

First, ice is there all the time, every day. Clouds are rarely continuous for long periods.

Second, clouds are scattering light. Of which some goes back to space. Snow is reflecting it.

I know on picture they both look white because humans are poor at discerning levels of whiteness.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_albedo "Cloud albedo on a planet varies from less than 10% to more than 90% and depends on drop sizes, liquid water or ice content, thickness of the cloud, solar zenith angle, etc

Clean snow has albedo of 90%, which is the best clouds can get in optimal conditions, but rarely actually get there. And difference between 90% and 80% of albedo is TWICE the amount of energy absorbed.

Without it there is not going to be a lot of clouds and rain in northern Canada or Europe. And arctic is already quite dry.

I've heard similar stories from my own country (Norway). I get the feeling that we only accept educations (as valid or similar to our own) if they are from a handful of western countries. People with education from poor countries probably have to take the entire degree again, if they come here to work.
In my theoretical system, I would implement a testing process that determines if a person is mentally competent to make legal, financial, contractual and overall life decisions. The courts in the U.S. already do this under specific circumstances and can give a child limited recognition as an adult and that is determined entirely by a judge. I would just take it a step further and have a certification that would be noted on a state ID card rather than depending on specific legal circumstances. Generalizing a persons capabilities to make such decisions by biological age is problematic. Some people are not ready to make life altering decisions at their states/regions age of majority whereas some people are prepared to make such decisions sooner than others. This would not be perfect, but probably more scientific of a process than basing a decision on biological age. Who creates the test? Likely a panel of clinical psychologists, biologists, lawyers. Who administers the test? Schools for free, some job sites paid by employer, lawyers for a fee.

You have the option to create a virtualenv and install it with pip, or snap, or use a docker image. See [1]. This has a couple of advantages:

* you'll get the latest version from the maintainers - for instance right now only debian unstable has the latest 1.18.0 version - debian testing bundles 1.12.0-2
* you won't be adding system packages that might affect other parts of the system

You claim correlation but that's not causation.

My guess is that more educated women are less willing to be stay at home moms and that correlates with your demographics. When you have a degree and dreams of a career, giving up on them is harder.

> Their unique blend of disability makes them inherrently unsuitable to any task that involves a group of other children.

Within the school system, which forces them to do so in the adults' way. Interesting that this “unsuitability to any task that involves a group of other children” tends to show up when the children aren't allowed to self-organise; in environments where children get to choose their own games, most autistic children are perfectly fine playing with their friends.

The problem comes when you try to force them to do things the way you want them to, and they find that difficult or don't want to. This is not the children's problem; this is adults on power trips.

You know the best teacher I ever had? The Reception and Year One teacher who distinguished between children and adults by whether they went to her school; who made me cross twice (justifiably cross, once); who would have children ask her to resolve disputes when they couldn't resolve them themselves; who gave the Year Sixes a budget and a catalogue and let them order the playground equipment; who talked to me about educational psychology and Game of Thrones when I was ten; whose class always (well, 99%) lined up at the end of playtime within 20 seconds, and patiently waited for an average of several minutes (I counted) for everyone else to line up; who was respected second only to the head teacher (who people were a bit scared of because he was the head teacher); who shouted perhaps four times I'm aware of, and never at her class because they were already paying attention to her; who never had any problems with “disruption” from the autistic kids (only from the biters, and the mute girl who kept hitting people).

Pretty sure she was autistic, too (if I remember one of our conversations right). Funny how that works out.

> I'd like to emphasize though that I meant the schooling issue as one of the many examples you could pick where autistic people are both at a disadvantage and are a detriment to the group.

I'm sorry, I'm not aware of any examples where autistic people are “a detriment to the group”. You'll have to provide them, I'm afraid.

I couldn’t agree more that a black box does not result in confidence in your modeling! Tangram is not a black box :) we tell you exactly the hyper parameter grid we trained, the settings that led to the best model, and provide explanations per prediction based on SHAP. And if you don’t like our settings, you can pass a config file, specifying everything from the column types in your csv, to the features produced, to the hyper parameters of the models you want trained. https://www.tangram.dev/docs/guides/train_with_custom_config...
Manim: An animation engine for explanatory math videos
Don't know why you are downvoted. Many corporations and institutions employ sandboxes to check mails and the links contained in them. This is a standard security practice by now.

So a link that is only valid once would be affected. Restricting the validity by time is a good way to solve this while still maintaining decent security.
Focus – A daemon that helps you work in what matters
Another idea is to have 3 links, where only one is visible:

https://example/com/token?forBots
https://example.com/token
https://example.com/token?forBots

Hopefully any automated systems will open the first or last link first, so that you can save the request info and filter based on that. In case requests come out of order, you can always add a small delay to the "human" link before responding.

I haven't yet gotten to implementing any of the authentication on my current project, so I might be missing something really basic.

The next best thing is to set a cookie when requesting the magic link, but the downside (or upside?) is that it will be valid only for the browser it was requested with.

I mostly agree with this. When I worked in the federal government, a bunch of colleagues there used to jest that it was "middle class welfare". The point being, that a huge portion of the white collar federal employees just exist to fill a billet. The number of free loaders was insane. In my experience, most operations were done by a few, and much of the extra work that was done really didn't need to happen (example: making useless one time spreadsheets with 10 rows and 4 columns filled with data that expires in the short term, embed into powerpoint, make powerpoint look pretty, email it to someone)

From personal experience I can tell you that using a modern framework can be really worth the added complexity even in simple applications.

For one of my clients projects it started out in what seemed like a simple crud app and so I did the few reactive changes in pure java script. The thing is: requirements changed and now after a while I couldn't get around adding VueJS simply because the reactive changes kept piling up.

Even though the HN sentiment seems to be that all "modern" frameworks are just huge piles of code that you add to your project without understanding how any of this works, my personal opinion is that using something like nextjs with server side rendering is not all that different from using a server side php framework like laravel. You still generate the same html unless you need reactive changes and when you do, you are happy to have chosen that. And to play a bit the devil's advocate: Unless you write your own webserver and template rendering engine you are already using a bunch of code you don't really understand.
What is the threat model for this? If it’s a highly advanced attacker with physical access not even that is good enough. The best we can do is a true hardware enclave.
I worked on multiple webapps that used react and, in a way yes, you could do server-side rendering. But the real advantage of react (and most other framework for that matter) is to be able to easily program pages that don't need to fully reload everytime you click on something. Sure, you can still do the same with SSR, but framework make it that much more simple and help a lot with separation of concern.

Also, it make task splitting between frontend and backend engineer that much more easier.
This is what I do as well. I have set up acme.sh[1] on a Raspberry Pi on my home network, which isn't accessible from the outside. It is triggered every night by a systemd timer and renews (using the DNS challenge) and deploys all expiring certificates.

Contrast to the breathless headline,

> Although Welwitschia mirabilis is not at present immediately threatened, there being abundant populations over a large area, its status is far from secure; its recruitment and growth rates are low, and its range, though wide, covers only a single compact, ecologically limited and vulnerable area. The remarkable longevity of Welwitschia favours its survival of temporary periods adverse to reproduction, but it offers no protection against circumstances of direct threat, such as overgrazing and disease. Fungal infection of female cones severely reduces seed viability, reducing already inherently low recruitment. Other threats include injury from off-road vehicles, collection of wild plants and overgrazing by zebras, rhinos, and domestic animals.
This would probably have meant that the Mac wouldn't have become so popular amongst developers.

Let's Encrypt will issue you with "ECC certificates" depending on what your idea of an "ECC certificate" is.

For a generic Let's Encrypt site if you have Elliptic curve keys, the existing R3 issuing intermediate will cheerfully sign you a certificate. The certificate will be for your EC public key, but signed by the R3 intermediate using RSA.

If your reason for wanting EC is that it's less work on your server, this achieves the goal, no RSA signatures from your servers (unless you also need to serve customers that can only do RSA and need a separate setup for that).

If you want, you can enroll in a trial programme for Let's Encrypt EC issuing intermediates where E1 will sign your EC keys (if you enroll R3 still signs any RSA keys you ask for). This chains through ISRG Root X2 and then ISRG Root X1 because ISRG Root X2 is not trusted by most (any?) large trust stores today.

If you can't have RSA anywhere in the chain then yeah, Let's Encrypt can't do that for you in practice today, although it'd be nice if you explain why you'd want that.
Sheesh what a cliff-hanger.
For a WPF-like development experience that's also cross-platform, perhaps take a look at Avalonia: http://avaloniaui.net/. It's not a drop-in replacement, but very, very similar.
I get what you're saying. It's true that some very lucky people manage to escape their unprivileged position early enough in their careers such that it is not a problem for them. Their career growth trajectory has given them a constant source of optimism which has given them confidence in their abilities and their future. That's because they believe there is a strong correlation between talent, work and success - That's the source of their confidence.

I think if you look at unprivileged, highly skilled, talented people who've been struggling to break through glass ceilings for a decade or two (in spite of delivering high quality work), then, you will get a better picture of what it means to be 'unprivileged'. These people are not confident in the future because they don't believe that there is a correlation between talent, work and success. Yet they are the most highly capable and they would have the best chance of succeeding if given the chance. But they probably won't be so lucky. They will be the most discriminated against of all.

The consequences of being discriminated against in the past will be used as a basis to discriminate against them in the future. "We should not give them the opportunity because they have no track record of financial success." (Nevermind that they do have a track record of excellence in their fields but the financial proceeds of their work were captured by others higher up in the hierarchy).
It's not unusual for there to be many fictional treatments of the same history/source material.
It also means you have to automate things that are tied to your certificate lifetime. Apple Pay on the web requires you authenticate your server, and it uses your certificate serial num as proof you still own the server.

This means every three months you need to re-authenticate with Apple Pay. But there is no Acme client for authenticating with Apple Pay. So instead, I was having to re-authenticate something manually every 3 months. It involved logging into an Apple Developer account, downloading a PEM file, uploading to my server and then clicking a button in the Developer Account to check the file.

After doing that dance, I happily paid for 2 year certificates from RapidSSL. Now you can only buy one year certificates. I really hope the CAB isn’t successful in making those non-conforming and requiring shorter certs.

There are plenty of other environments where certificate automation is not possible. And honestly, I haven’t seen arguments as to how on-machine automation is more secure than requiring someone be involved in the process.

While I’m dreaming about improvements to the CA ecosystem, having some way to actually prove your are the company you claim would be amazing. Instead we are actively removing support for anything that tried to provide that…
