right, true.
Them critters is tied to something.
I guess this would apply mostly to public services. In general you can quite well along with English. Mostly I hear opposite complaints from foreigners here. They say practicing Finnish is difficult, since most of the people automatically switch to speaking English when they recognize you are not native.

One issue though is that if you want to apply citizenship, you need to show you have adequate skills in either Finnish or Swedish (both are official languages).
Ok, look, I'd rather not talk about "football fields 10 meters deep". But going by that number your 80 000 metric tonnes of spent fuel has an average density of 740kg/m^3. So does your football field include the empty space necessary to keep the rods far apart (to keep them cool and not critical)?

But never-mind the technicalities, you cannot dismiss the geo-political implications. We have barely existed as a species in the time length nuclear waste decays. We have only 5000 years or so of statehood, the vast majority of them since collapsed.

Unless you propose burying the waste in the Marianna trench (I think there is merit there), I really need to see the stability concerns addressed.

EDIT: And yes, I am "aware". I stated my undergrad in a nuclear eng program, and switched to physics after a few courses. I still have friends in the industry and to say morale is low is an understatement.
Tips My Web – Let's find the most useful websites for your workflow
Money is the only thing the law is about, not privacy. Even if you disagree with my opinion that it was designed to be this way, there’s not really an argument to be made against the suggestion that all it’s accomplished is periodically fining foreign service providers (plenty of fines to EU businesses too, but there has never been and will never a large one).

If it was designed to protect privacy, it is very clearly failing to achieve that objective.

That's an interpreter written in C and without a JIT. Not the same as an AOT compiler.

The point isn't just not having a JIT. You can run v8 without a JIT. The point is good performance without a JIT.
I recommend the Sabatron song with the same title : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaW76aDKObk

No clue if it is accurate or not but a good song.
Could you name a couple of good such sites? I ask for, uh, research purposes.
Just FWIW you can’t hover over things on mobile, that’s a pretty bad way to reveal what the badges are for. It would be better to just show what the badge is for in smaller italics text under the badge name.

It would also be cool to see a list of all possible badges.

That being said, enough of the world is gamified already… this is nice work and a fun diversion but I’m glad it’s not a real feature of HN :)
In IT English is de facto language in Finland. For other sectors it depends but generally everyone under 60 speaks at least ok level English.

Sure, but even one assumption limits innovation. Even if the innovation is stupid, learning the hard way is useful, so I want at least one student every few years to try that stupid thing and then from personal experience tell the others why it didn't work out.

If we were talking about a serious project there are a lot of best practices that should be rarely (and then only carefully) questioned, but for something intended to be thrown away at the end of the semester challenging best practices is a great way to learn.

That said, PS/2 is a simplifying assumption as well.
Thank you! The https solved the problem.

I'll keep your manager in mind for when I need multi-factor auth, which so far hasn't happened.

Not for treating COVID-19 though. You're obviously unaware, but the 19 in COVID-19 is the year it was first discovered. The 2015 Nobel prize happened in 2015, again, the clue is in the name.

The title would not fit and I agree that leaving only SARS its confusing. It would be better COVID.

Maybe @dang can do something about it.
It's funny how you claim the regulations are "very vague" but then say WhatsApp has everything in some terms of service, which are the opposite of specific.

The official ToS themselves actually don't contain any information about their data collection, it's basically just a link to their privacy guidelines. Those privacy guidelines, in summary, just say "we collect information about how you use WhatsApp so we can improve our services". No word about what information they collect exactly, in what ways it is processed and linked with other data, what kind of meta-information they extract from it, nothing.

The GDPR is only vague for organisations that go as close to the edge of legality as possible.
> Contemporary art is an excellent place to observe this phenomenon; there is very little connection between "aesthetic value" and "market value."

There's something very strange I've noticed in contemporary art, that in the last 20-30 years the value of talent, hard work, and aesthetics have dimished massively in critics and influencers eyes.

I don't think it's made the world a better place. It's almost like creating anti-art is now trendy and popular, creating aesthetic art is seen as boring and old. Chaos is preferred over order, destroying and standing up to old structures is seen as art, not building on previous knowledge.

Now I know there is a lot of value in rebelling, I rebelled a lot myself, but I think it's gone way overboard. You need a balance of rebellion and the old. Rebellion by itself is destructive over the long run.
> In case of microcontrollers, PXT programs are compiled in the browser to ARM Thumb assembly, and then to machine code, resulting in a file which is then deployed to the microcontroller, usually via USB mass-storage interface.

Looks like the only compilation strategy is directly to ARM Thumb assembly or did I miss something?
Reminder that other "low value energy demand" is easy bufferable - one can easy heat water in a isolated ground tank with excess solar and use that storage in winter.
> So anyone who believes that NAT is something that provides security is delusional.

If I understand NATs correctly, they cannot route incoming connections (from the Internet) to a computer on the local network because they don't know which computer to route them to. Hence incoming connections will always fail (unless configured to go to a specific computer, "port forwarding"). Thus a NAT (by design, because it cannot operate in another fashion), blocks incoming connections. I'd think this is a security benefit (over having a public IP address for every device in the network like in IPv6, but without a firewall).

Care to elaborate why my example doesn't work/misses your point?
I had an samsung active watch. It took them over a year to roll out blood pressure and only worked in conjunction with a samsung phone(although the functionality itself had nothing to do with the phone).

It was decently accurate at reproducing results that were close to the calibration device. I do remember people complaining that it was only accurate when the BP was close to what you calibrated it to though. Say for example you measure in rest and then you try to measure during heavy exercise the heavy exercise measurement was off.
That calculator isn't telling you the risk of hospitalisation per case, but the risk of hospitalisation over a 90 day period during the first peak of the pandemic.

The two are very different. The calculated risk includes the fact that not everyone (or even most people) will get covid during that 90 day window. It's also based on the statistics for the original covid variant - by all accounts Delta is both more transmissible and more likely to cause hospitalisation.

The likelihood on a per-case basis is significantly higher. The Economist has a tool here: https://www.economist.com/graphic-detail/covid-pandemic-mort...

For example, a 25 year old man with no co-morbidity who receives a positive covid test has a 1.6% chance of hospitalisation. Obviously not everyone with covid will receive a positive test (I've seen an estimate of 1 in 4 are tested) - so perhaps that rate is actually 0.4%. That's way, way higher than the 0.002% you said.

Ultimately if covid is endemic, you will get it. At that point, even as a 25 year old, you're risking hospitalisation.
It's not ideal. I would push back if I could.

But you could create a job style api, where they submit a batch, and you return a id back. Then they check the status of the batch by a get on the job id.
Remote Hiring Considerations-Crewscale
You don't think the bicycling, Branson's persona, and the speech where he mentioned the bicycling are just framing devices around an engineering team pulling off a passeneger spaceflight?

I'd be surprised if he even came up with the idea. They probably had a speech written for him, he got busy (or just felt out of it) and didn't bicycle there as planned, so they found some footage to release so they wouldn't have to change the speech.

It's identical. In this thread, Guy Fieri fans jump out to declare his persona actually true and good; on another message board, Branson fans are doing the same thing, explaining how he's nothing like Fieri.
If you don't consider telegram a well-done cross platform app, then what are your standards? There is literally no other app that is as X-platform as telegram. Nothing by MS, Facebook, Google, Apple or any other company in the world comes close to releasing an app for Every mobile and desktop platform. On top of that, Telegram is better in performance and offer far more features than competitors who release in fewer platforms... FOR FREE. There are so many more things to praise before thinking of any criticism about emojis not looking right before sending in Linux desktop lol.

The only way to do this is via a 28th amendment to the Constitution to strip out the number two point in the Bill of Rights. At that point, the gun toters probably won’t consider themselves American anymore so problem solved!

As a hunter, I will never be persuaded.

Also, the author ended his well written article with this:

> Twenty-five hundred years ago, the Greek writer Thucydides described the progress of civilization. It began, he said, when the Athenians ceased carrying arms inside their city, and left that savage custom to the barbarians. It’s long past time for Americans to absorb this first lesson from the first democracy.

For those that don’t know, the Athenians were defeated within a few centuries of Thucydides by those savage barbarians.

> quotas [...] at your big name ISP it's actually costing them more than you pay for the service

Apart from one-off costs for building the line and associated repeaters and curb boxes, the only real running costs should be occasional maintenance on those boxes, some electricity costs and most likely some out-sourced phone support ("Have you tried turning it off and on again?").

I'm pretty sure the oh-so-convenient-to-ISPs tale of ever-rising costs if customers go past some arbitrary monthly limit (which is a tiny fraction of the possible monthly usage with the advertised bandwidth) is a MYTH and has been known as such for years.

A little napkin-math:

10⁹ x (1/8 B x 1/2 x 3600s x 8h x 8d) = 10.8 x 10¹² B = 10.8 TB/m = 500Mb/s [1] @ 8h per day for 8 days per month

which is much more than the oh-so-magnanimous 5 TB/month budget I read as an example in a comment further up.

[1]: half of the advertised bandwidth
Note: you are talking about drugs, not vaccines. There is a big difference in how they act and especially in the frequency they are given. This results in significant differences in the associated risks.

And even then, in the case of Voixx it was a comparison against other drugs that ultimately made regulators pull the plug. Additionally, the manufacturer concealed the side effects, so the argument about long-term effects is even weaker.
That calculator includes an estimate of likelihood of catching covid - so the actual risk of hospitalisation for someone who does catch covid is way, way higher - for a 25 year old man in the US it's about 1.6%.

Citrix products are complex, costly and difficult – Awingu is the alternative
I lived in Sweden for a couple of years. I would not be surprised if (at least some of) the Nordics eventually made English an official language within my lifetime.

When I was going through my migration process, someone at the tax office said in response to my statement that my Swedish was pretty bad (paraphrasing here): "I think you could live the rest of your life in Sweden pretty easily speaking only English."

I lived in way northern Sweden, so not like a cosmopolitan/metropolitan area like Stockholm/Gothenburg/Malmö. After a couple of years, my Swedish barely improved, and I think the tax office agent was probably correct.

My very young kids were in public school there. Probably almost all of the Swedish kids wanted to be friends with my kids, because my kids could speak English just like these kids' parents and older siblings. Almost all of the kids in my rural town were excited to learn English, and I met many fully Swedish kids whom at 7 or 8 years old were already gaining a good level of proficiency in English.
Oh apparently you have to use fuck in two comments. And it has to be over a certain percentage of your total comments. Also you can get a badge by mentioning Rick Astley. Hilarious.
Seconded. They are stunning photos if genuine.
You are arrogant and I am old, too old to waste my time. That's a pleasure of the youth.
> Also is this actually faster than just python? I tried it out with some bad expensive looping using lists with python3.9 and it was 100ms slower (1.3sec vs 1.4sec).

Mind sharing that code? I'm sure someone would like to be able to look into this.
I'm not sure about your price comment, but they are pretty the same price as Yubico's in Europe (maybe you compared US prices with European prices?). Also their software and firmware is open source in contrast to Yubico, which for me means I always will choose them over Yubico.
Looks like you just did, assuming that's what "Colorful" means. (I'm on mobile so just have to guess at the badge meanings.)

Edit: Oh, apparently that's not what "Colorful" means at all.
> One issue though is that if you want to apply citizenship, you need to show you have adequate skills in either Finnish or Swedish (both are official languages).

Why is that an issue?

It seems reasonable to me if you want to have citizenship. But you can surely live a successful life in Finland as a foreign national, no?

The legal framework and justice system that registers and enforces property rights has to get paid for somehow.
The risk of hospitalisation for most people who get covid is way higher than 0.01% - it's about 1% for a 21 year old man, 2.7% for a 30 year old man and 8.5% for a 50 year old man - and only goes up from there.

I think "collective will" is a red herring. Humans are what they have always been - gradient descent optimizers on a good day. Understanding of morality, a culture, the law - those are tricks we've developed over time to, sometimes, break us out of situations in which our natural behavior threatens our communities (and so is self-destructive on aggregate).

No, I think the common aspect of all Big Problems is that available solutions don't create equilibria. They're not stable. And we know they're not stable - most people do, if only on an instinctive level (our "social sense" is good at navigating these things).

That encompasses all the "lack of collective will" cases: people are aware that they're being asked to make an immediate and concrete sacrifice, in exchange for uncertain and abstract long-term gains - gains that won't accrue unless almost everyone makes that same sacrifice. Our gradient-descending minds rightfully figure there's no point. See [0] for a much longer discussion of this topic.

The point I'm making is that we should stop thinking about this as a moral failure, in the sense of "if only we had the collective will", as if almost everyone was lazy or heartless or stupid. On the contrary - the Big Problems persist because we know of no solution for them that can be implemented in context of our civilization - societies, cultures and laws[1].

The way I see it, we have following ways forward:

- Figure out different solutions, ones that form stable equilibria within our current social framework. This is the part where technology plays critical role - new technologies are a way to create new options.

- Transform our social framework into a one in which existing unstable solutions are stable. This is slow and hard work, involving changing laws and ultimately cultural norms. It ultimately means fighting our biology - not all social frameworks can be implemented on top of humans, and even for those that can be, there may not be a possible path from "here" to "there".

[1] - A good thought exercise to get a feel for it: imagine that we somehow found the "collective will" to solve one of the Big Problems. What mechanisms are there that protect people from being exploited at scale using the same collective-will-generating circumstances?
So they got their immunity and will be richer than now once they paid the fine over the extremely long period they negotiated. Additionally they don't plead guilty and get away effectively scott free. I guess crime pays if you get rich enough.

Way to set and example for the next one.
This is, probably unwittingly, making my point.

Brexit in no way breaches the GFA. Threatening a return to violence in Ireland over Brexit is what I mean by "making things difficult".

The Troubles were not about sausage shipments between Belfast and Dublin.

But the government can almost literally print money and did this time.

If the government sends people stimulus checks, pays for that with deficit spending, and that debt is monetized by the Fed purchasing it...

You had money that did not exist, that the Fed created on its spreadsheet to buy Treasuries to finance the Federal government... Sending people checks, unemployment, and businesses paycheck protection.

AFAIK, this was >$2T of the Federal Reserve's ~$7T balance sheet increase (~30%).

In normal times, the Federal government deficit spends, but the Federal Reserve's balance sheet does not increase to finance that.

Although the deficit is not paid for by taxes, the money created is not coming from the Federal Reserve.

In this case, almost all of it did.
That looks cool, thanks.
Perhaps after so long living in a van one expands what gear feels allowable/necessary to the point of long leaving basic setup territory.

What I Learned When I Rented My Parents’ Former Home as an Airbnb
I really wish I could find the source, but I remember seeing a documentary done by the effects team for Star Trek DS9 and Voyager. They talked about the transition from models on DS9 to CGI for voyager. The point that stood out for me was that they said what they missed the most from doing model based effects was the serendipitous shots they would get, be it an interesting angle, lighting effect, etc. The beauty of working in reality is that reality fills in the blanks. With CGI everything has to be planned. (I get thats not 100%, there's plenty of CGI plugins that generate random noise and effects, but its still not the same).
