The choice of distilled water in particular for a historic recreation is very strange; water makes a big difference. Unless there's reason to believe water in whatever part of France is very soft, a bottled spring water would have been a better choice if you don't want to use tap.
Oh yeah, that's very interesting! That would be great, I forgot that you can expose the socket to the container. I'd definitely be interested in that, thanks!
I don't think it's fair to attribute "most" of this to inflation. Car prices have been rising much faster than many other components of CPI, so even in real rather than nominal dollars cars are getting more expensive.
Apple's investigation code executes on the device, which allows them to preserve their definition of end-to-end as long as you plug your ears and ignore where the 'ends' are.

Super cool! I’m always super skeptical of people claiming battery improvements. Is the benefit more of the lithium ion to lead acid switch? Or swapping batteries between use? Keep up the good work. I’d love to see videos of the e-Rick shaws.

From the GP...

> The government takes some of that value by simply creating more dollars.
If there was no taxation, there would be no "compelling" reason for anyone to keep using the currency (which would be also losing value directly by the increase in money supply from government spending).
In other words, even under MMT taxation is necessary to limit inflation.
Payroll taxes are federal income taxes.
> OTOH, it doesn't address bad remote-meeting etiquette like side conversations

Interestingly, my team has found that side conversations taking place in the meeting chat are extremely helpful (to the point that as some members of the team have been resuming in-person meetings, they have been bringing laptops and having a Slack thread running for the meeting).

It's great for questions/comments that may not be worth interrupting the flow of the conversation for, but are important enough that they shouldn't get lost entirely.
The Brits intentionally created unstable countries so that none could rival them in power in a region. All those countries were too busy dealing with internal strife to become regional competitors to England.
You can only inspect something if it's decrypted.

Content is no longer private if there is anything inspecting it other than you.

I expect cloud providers to fiddle with my data - because they can and do. I don't expect vendors, especially one touting themselves as being more privacy focused than everyone else, to be sifting through my data on device.

Yes, today it's a carefully designed algorithm designed to be one way. The algorithm isn't the problem. The problem is the method used to deliver this algorithm can also be used to deliver *other* algorithms. And no, especially since 9/11 I have zero faith that this is as far as this mechanism will ever be used.
What's more convincing to me than self report of image quality is self report of imagery use. Whether it should be described as aphantasia I don't know, but I never think in a visuospatial way unless I consciously stop and try because the problem really requires it (and even then I feel I'm pretty bad). On the other hand I have friends that describe their ideas in such a visual way almost instantly, and report having imagery pop into their heads naturally.

To me it seems really obvious that relative to my internal monologue, my imagery is much weaker and quantifiably less frequent. So I think at least people that report having imagery much stronger than internal monologue likely have something different going on for real, not just with reporting.
To build off your details, many Americans also received a net payment back for federal taxes through the Earned Income Tax Credit (effectively a negative income tax).
It was Doom. The era of the 386/486 still had a large component of "could it run doom"? And Doom on even an 8bit adlib/sound blaster clone on the ISA bus sounded amazing at the time.
Variable fonts aren't "Metafont-style procedural fonts"
Payroll taxes and sales taxes are regressive. Taxes on income earned from possessing wealth are vastly lower than taxes on income from doing work.
286 was limited to 16bit registers, the 386 had 32bit registers and could also enable a 4GB flat memory model. It enabled a completely different architecture and programming model, just like how the first amd64 with new 64bit registers enabled a whole different architecture.
Very cool. Are you working with electric scooters as well? Ola recently launched electric scooters and have heard that the battery is not swappable on that.
"controlling the narrative" is absolutely the line of defense here.

Seems so, our corporate media is largely comprised of cowards and pay-for-play.

Most media is deeply unprofitable, and it compensates for this by taking payment for ads disguised as organic content (have first hand experience with this that has honestly made me cynical).

Most media won’t bite the hand that literally feeds them.
Taxes remove money from circulation, helping to control the inflation caused by creating new money.
I took "looping" and "incapacity" to mean not taking a leap. Growth usually happens outside your comfort zone. Remove the safety net and ask, 'what's the worst that could happen?'
You’re correct but don’t take into consideration things like child tax credits.

I have family members that pay a total of $400 in tax yet receive a $9,000 or more “refund” due to various credits.

So yes, there is a sizable portion of the population that literally pays a negative tax rate even when factoring in all of the taxes you mentioned.
As opposed to the juvenile delinquents, impoverished kids who don’t have access to tools for basic hygiene like running water or electricity (that was me at various points during my school years), and various other issues taking up “more than their fair share”?

What you’ve identified isn’t the autistic kids’ fault, it’s the miserly taxpayers’, incompetent admins’, and corrupt/spiteful politicians’, who don’t adequately fund or organize our public school systems.
That solar corona really hates your molecular bonds passionately. It's not too keen on metal crystals either. It's hard to see how to ignore that level of hatred as one approaches the photosphere en route to scooping out stuff below that, especially if it flares or reconnects through you and your gear "in close orbit around the star's equator". Your gear and repair & installation techs are much safer a couple gigametres away.

If you really want to extract mass from a star, just wait long enough, or find one ready to release a suitable amount. There are plenty of options from CMAs to flares to UV Ceti style flare stars, to deflagrating white dwarfs, novas, and supernovas. Let the star's nuclear energy do the "heavy lifting", eliminating all the problems catalogued before the "... plasma jets hundreds or thousands of astronomical units long ... [t]he details of extracting useful materials from [that has] not been extensively explored".

(The linked article at the top discusses relativistic jets driven by million-solar-mass and larger black holes. The jets are likely to be more constant and/or more predictable than natural mass outflows from stars, but extracting and storing energy from that is even less "extensively explored". An option in between is to use the natural mass flow from a companion star onto a compact star (white dwarf, neutron star, black hole) by sticking the moral equivalent of a water wheel into the stream. It's just a (compared to water hot & sparse) fluid flowing downhill, and there are plenty of examples in our galaxy.)
They're not great, that's true. My point is that they're not unusual in the U.S.
I have an almost-fully-specced 2015 15” MBP for personal use and it’s still fine. For work I had a 2019 16” MBP with the newest keyboard and now I can pretend 2016-2018 MacBooks never existed and instead we went straight from 2015 to 2019 and the world makes sense. But yeah the next one I buy will probably be an M1.
What makes you think the most critical uses have the most money to pay for chips? I'd imagine there's a lot of crappy (or in any case not critical) consumer products that have much higher margins.
Google introducing tool for under-18s to remove images of them from search
I have used Dokku, Kubernetes, a bit of Nomad, some Dokku-alikes, etc, but none of them did things exactly like I wanted (the single configuration file per server was a big requirement, as I want to know exactly what's running on a server).
Accuracy and Precision would be problematic with this design, but, lack of rigidity is more insidious. Most of these high speed spindles will use carbide tooling, which is highly susceptible to breakdown under vibration. A flexible horrible frame like this is going to vibrate a lot even in materials like delrin or HDPE.

Also, with a vertical spindle and CNC control, there is no reason to have a vertical rotary axis. The reduced motion doesn't buy any capability upgrade. The 4th axis that is helpful would be angular. (you could put a horizontal spindle on this, I guess, but this machine is not up to the task.
Please, spare us. Every single time a Twitter link gets posted here there's somebody like you who just wants to complain. We all know how you feel at this point; if it bothers you that much, don't click twitter links.

Yes! It sounds like something that you could find in The Program audio series.
How does this break e2e for Messages? They're still only ever decrypted on your device, and their content is never shared with others. You have to radically redefine what "e2e encryption" means for this to qualify as breaking it.

There's no e2e encryption for Photos currently, so it can't be breaking it there. If you use iCloud Photos, your photos are stored encrypted, but Apple has the key and could be doing all the cloud-scanning it felt like.
> how is that possible

Doesn't the US have a 0% tax bracket?

And even if it didn't, whatever% of $0 income is $0.
I think the concern is that some of those satellite operators might be totally subject to the will of some dumbass dictator or politician.

I think of that Romanian dictator (Ceaușescu) who let his totally uneducated wife design the subway system in Bucharest. It was completely non-sensical, but the engineers had their hands tied (although they did secretly build stations in anticipation of common sense coming along at some point.)
Level of perceived versus implied condesension is a function of cultural communication style. People in some countries just talk like that.
Ostensibly as a programmer you know the semantics of your programming language, so the compiler isn't doing anything unexpected here ;) So from its perspective it is not doing anything unexpected to your code.

I think the real problem here is that people underestimate the complexity of C and C++. It often feels like it would be easy to guess what the assembly would look like for some snippet of C/C++ code (especially when it's not using any C++ features, such as the loop in the article) when we really should be thinking in terms of the abstract machine that the standard defines.
Latency can definitely be related to data size (even when not technically throughput constrained, thanks to "buffer bloat").
Federal income taxes aren't the only tax tho.

Even with an accurate tittle, I think the whole story is based on a rando stat without much context...

Taxes is such a big topic and here we are where everyone is going to talk about that topic, when the story really only informs (a little...) about a small piece of it.

Meta: I feel like HN has rapidly turned a corner where the title is driving clicks and up-votes and the content of the article is not. To some extent that is always the problem but the scale seems to be moving rapidly :(
I'm not sure experience running a company is necessarily a good thing here, or at the very least, not pertinent. Wall St.'s and the American people's interests are not necessarily in line. The US' previous president ran some companies and did not really do a good job in this regard, either, wrt his trade wars.
Many countries have a funny concept of strategic industries.

In mine, dairy is a strategic industry that is coddled by government so that we can have a local source. But every country thinks that so there’s foes and allies that can supply us UHT or powder milk on a moment’s notice. And if our milk supply disappeared tomorrow, everyone over 1y could substitute with 10000000 different things for nutrition.

Cars are another. Every country props up its auto industry, so why worry about a domestic supply?

Meanwhile, there are critical components, pharma ingredients or other inputs built in 1 factory in a country we could likely end up in a big dispute with.

Just goes to show that industry protection has nothing to do with risk/dependence on that product, and everything to do with picking and choosing which industries are important voting bases.
which have no value, because the value they have derives largely from the ability to pay taxes with them.

OP's comment makes no sense.
Yeah, and will they be filled with the booths of individual sellers, like their online store and flea markets?
I’m not interested in Apple’s newspeak definition of “E2EE” (where they are between the ends) or “Privacy” (terms and restrictions may apply).

I want the real thing.
Also having capitol gains taxed at a lower rate than income is regressive. Rich people aren't rich because they work. They're rich because they have money to invest. Our tax system should benefit people who work for a living over people that just pay other people to turn their money into more money.
They look very very interesting for development and things like that, and I'm going to set one up locally to play with, they just seemed like overkill for running a bunch of Python scripts, Plex, etc.
> I was rejected from the credit card I helped launch because, despite having a high income, I lacked credit history.

This happened to me. I got a job in Petaluma, CA where I was rejected for internet service because my credit history was "Unknown risk", i.e. I had no credit history. I was in my early 20's.

It was kind of a bummer to hear that this product is only for women, but seeing as it was a bummer to be a woman for most of history, I can hardly complain. :)

Best of luck! Looking forward to seeing where this goes.

Same here. I stopped clicking IG/FB shares for a long time thanks to their gated content. Added to Reddit's anti-browser policy and now Twitter, those are all great opportunities to spend less time on my smartphone :)
Not sure why you’re getting downvoted.

Having to pay taxes in US dollars or go to jail is a strong incentive for people to continue their business operations with US dollars.
Sorry, I know I don’t have below average IQ, I was being snarky. :-)
Printing the money would create uncertainty - how much will the government print? How much will inflation be? How will the dollar fluctuate against currencies of trading partners? Uncertainty kills business and this plan would hurt every aspect of trade and manufacturing.
The Federal Reserve hardly responds to market conditions. Their free and open printing of money is arguably the greatest risk to our economy. Milton Friedman has great resources on this, including a video series from the 1970s (based on clothing alone) called Free to Choose. Its on Youtube, amongst other places.
Exactly, its so weird that price sensitive recluses never just considered that GPUs were undervalued?

“Omg these [new market entrants] are messing up my ability to take screenshots of my framerate and never enjoy myself”

Well now its back to business use cases!
Oh, I understand your points. But I see the joke sailed right over your head; I'm guessing you didn't realize that this joke is presented as a joke, notably due to the phrase "pack it in mathematicians", since it's quite unreasonable to believe that anyone familiar with the Collatz Conjecture would believe that solving it is the only reason for mathematicians to exist (and also quite unreasonable for anyone familiar enough with LLVM and mathematics to assume a compiler's behavior constitutes a mathematical proof).

I can't speak to online forums (I use them for so many things), but I'm sure Twitter is the right place for humor, and not the right place to announce a serious belief you've proved a long standing mathematical problem.
See, why does this stat even matter without payroll taxes. Payroll taxes go to federal and state.

I hate articles like this.
Part of the article's point was that so fewer people even got paychecks in 2020. That, and pandemic relief in the form of tax credits, which reduced people's tax liability.

But also keep in mind: not everyone who has income gets it from a paycheck; plenty of self-employed or small business people don't get paychecks; when they're paid, it's up to them to put money aside all year to pay taxes at tax time.
Zen and the Art of Boat Building

If I remember the Dell and competitor ads in PC Magazine from 1991 correctly, a decently specced 486 25 MHz was selling for around $4500-5000. With 14" SVGA monitor.
Summary of the cited paper [1]:

> Sharks (Selachimorpha) are iconic marine predators that have survived multiple mass extinctions over geologic time. Their prolific fossil record is represented mainly by isolated shed teeth, which provide the basis for reconstructing deep time diversity changes affecting different selachimorph clades.

> Here, we use a geometric morphometric approach to comprehensively examine tooth morphologies in multiple shark lineages traversing the catastrophic end-Cretaceous mass extinction—this event terminated the Mesozoic Era 66 million years ago.

> Our results show that selachimorphs maintained virtually static levels of dental disparity in most of their constituent clades across the Cretaceous–Paleogene interval.

> Our principal discovery of overall static disparity indicates that selachimorphs experienced no demonstrable preextinction decline or eco-morphological turnover as postulated for other vertebrate groups.

Implications for humanity: maybe we should start building underwater cities for the next inevitable mass extinction.

> stepping into adulthood and financial responsibility

The timing of my life events is one of the things I am most grateful of.

I graduated in 2014 and within a couple years I bought a house. Strong job market for an employee and low interest rate.

I know people that were getting PhDs, because they started undergrad in the aftermath of the housing bubble and couldn't find jobs when finished. I also know people that decided to buy a house before the bubble and are still stuck underwater, preventing them to pursue opportunities not in their area. I also know people that went into medicine as tuition became ridiculous and have no way of servicing their student loans.

I guess what I'm getting at is count your blessings. Others may not be as fortunate as you.
I don’t understand why this is getting downvoted considering this is almost verbatim what Taleb preaches.

Sensitizing people to the idea that a benevolent dictator is going through content on their local device for their benefit.

It's all about conditioning. First it's to save the children. Then it will be about preventing the terrorists. Finally it will be about preventing "hate speech" - which these days hate speech is pretty much speech from anyone you disagree with :p

Like the 1984 novel, Minority Report wasn't an instruction manual!

Thank you so much. We are only working with e-rickshaws at the moment but plan to take the model to electric scooters (Zomato/Swiggy delivery fleets) soon. We believe commercial EVs will be the first ones to adopt swapping because they loose revenue when they have to charge in the day time.
PBS Space time on YouTube has a great video about it. For the sun cannibalizing Mercury would be enough.
It is disturbing that there are enough people making just above what the IRS considers the poverty line that a couple thousand dollars of tax stimulus should have such a profound effect.
For me it's Scott Smith's blog post series describing his current journey after being diagnosed with ALS (Stephen Hawking's disease) as a young father of two little girls. There are unique perspectives on gratitude and how to stand strong in the face of one of the cruelest afflictions life might throw at you.
