I was thinking of charities that specifically take old electronics to refurbish and give to people, not thrift shops where it'd rot on the shelf. Just stuff so people who, for example, might not have have a consistent home or the means to get a phone are reachable by social services.

This was a bigger thing years ago, but maybe it's not as much anymore. All I could find was Cell Phones For Soldiers.
And the reason it is fungible is that it has the backing of the US Government, US Treasury and Federal Reserve.

People might not 'care' about the govenement when they use cash, but try and pay with something that doesnt have some backing - say for example small rocks. They too are fungible, you can buy bags of them at any good hardware store. They are decentralised, trustless, effectively untraceable and could in theory be exchanged for goods and services, if both parties were willing.
You can just not save the info. Not surprised that web developers have no concept of not saving everything anymore, but it is technically feasible. In many cases the IP wouldn't even reach your service and you only see it in the log of some load balancer or other proxy. How fleeting those logs are is a matter of choice.

You can come up with an excuse, depending on the service it might be laborious to get an IP on a running live system that doesn't otherwise care about connection information.

Depending on the truthfulness of that you might make yourself guilty of impeding investigations though.
Absolutely no offence at all! I tend to avoid Reddit these days and wanted to catch up on some SpaceX stuff. Avoiding Reddit means my main source of SpaceX news, a mix of r/SpaceX and r/SpaceXLounge, was something I was avoiding. Going back through Elon’s tweets seemed a decent way to catch up in a general sense. He seems to really like tweeting about SpaceX.

I learned through that attempt at going back through his tweets that, as you pointed out, Twitter is really not built for that. I guess I hadn’t really put much thought it in at the time, was just on my phone, curious about SpaceX, and thought it might be an OK way to get some updates.

Hopefully that makes at least a bit of sense…

We have crossed the rubicon.

Hayley Arceneaux will become the first individual with a prosthesis to go to space. In the 60 year history of crewed spaceflight, we have never put a human with titanium bones in orbit. Nor, have we sent anyone up who has met any of the requirements to be otherwise classified as "disabled". Until now.

It is the indicator of a profound tipping point.

The very first astronauts were required to be "perfect physical specimens" (cis-male specimens at that) that had no abnormal readings in all of their medical tests. Jim Lovell was eliminated from consideration during the Mercury program because of his elevated bilirubin levels, which turned out to be a fairly normal variation of human physiology.

The requirements loosened to the point where Jim Lovell could go to the moon. But most people, including women, were still excluded by NASA's and the Air Force's Flight Surgeons.

Then came the Shuttle program that opened the field wider to more bright minds who wouldn't have met the "perfect male physical specimen" standard, including Eileen Collins and Sally Ride. By the end of the program, the shuttle had launched multiple cancer survivors into space.

However, so far, people who are considered "disabled" or "unfit" by the Flight Surgeon's office are still excluded. These terms cut a wide swath and include treatable conditions such as, Type-I diabetes, dysmenorrhea, endometriosis and - yes- prosthetics. Other than a call by ESA for the first disabled state-sponsored astronauts, no other astronaut corps has admitted someone like Hayley into their ranks. Yet.

With this flight, Hayley will set a new milestone in space medicine. A big one. She will become a test case that can be used to demonstrate that people with disabilities can function and operate in the spaceflight environment. It will break the cycle of disabled people being "flight proven", from a flight surgeon's perspective.

We're now at the dawn of a new age, where anyone physically fit can go to space, provided they have the mental aptitude. It's incredible.

This flight means that I can be an astronaut. And so can you.

Hayley represents a huge milestone. And we owe it to commercial spaceflight. Thank you, Elon and Jared Isaacman (and Axiom Space).

> Plugging a charging cable into the camera itself feels incredibly cumbersome?

I've... never found this to be the case. Almost everything I have charges by USB-C. In particular, being able to charge the camera on the go with a battery in my backpack while I'm shooting is a huge feature for me. If I'm capturing video I already have the door open (or removed) and an external monitor/capture card plugged in, so there's nothing unusual about an extra cable.

I have multiple batteries, but I typically also use the grip to charge them via AC adapter so it's the same deal.

Do you always put your phone on the floor near a wall socket while you charge it? My phone wasn't too much cheaper than my camera, and I don't really concern myself with shorts/electrical damage when charging.

Besides, I don't really need multiple batteries (aside from the grip) because I can just use an external, portable, universal battery, of which I have several.

State-owned AFP and most journals being >1/3rd sponsored by the government is clearly helping the mugging of political opponents in France, whether through the use of media, judges or by simple private thugs armed with guns and diplomatic passports.

How to not get triggered by DevOps and other buzzwords
VPNs are a very different technology. The amount of network traffic alone is a huge difference.

You may be confusing inbound and outbound proxies. If an inbound proxy is put in front of a server, it is able to be extremely hardened without exposing the webserver, and only allows traffic in extremely limited ways. This frees up the webserver to be more open to the internal network, obfuscates information about the webserver to outsiders, etc.

You may be thinking of an outbound proxy where all of your web requests travel through it in order to provide web filtering, protected DNS, and other protective services to internal endpoints and clients that are already on your network.

A VPN is a much deeper connection than an inbound proxy. It typically requires the external endpoint to be trusted, which is the complete opposite state of an endpoint connecting through an inbound proxy. It then allows the endpoint to operate from a position of trust within the whole internal network. Patches can be updated, endpoints can communicate with each other, and the full network traffic of the endpoint routes through the network. With a VPN you even wind up going through the outbound proxy typically!

YMMV though, not every org is setup exactly like this. I’m making gross generalizations about things. Definitely do some web searches on the differences.

I tried getting my credit fixed working with different Credit repair specialists but None of them seemed to work out perfectly like they said to me , I was down and kept it to myelf ,one of my closest friend noticed that i had something bothering me all this while so she asked me what was wrong , at first i wanted to keep it all to myself fbut at that point It was too much on me so i had to open up to her and it turned out that she had the solution because she has been through the same thing , she introduced me to thiis credit repair company that helped her get rid of the negatives she had on her credit and i didn't hesitate to contact them and they took down all negatives on my credit and revived my credit back .. at that point I was very excited and the best part is that It's permanent , It's been over a year now and nothing has changed ...

This starts to get really off topic, but I have the same use case. I don't know why, but at least here in Europe most shavers come with NiMH batteries, which seem to suffer from self discharging. Since I got one with a lithium ion battery, I can charge it twice a year and it is always ready to go when I need it.

Einstein is a great mind. His importance is greatly overblown by pop culture and politics. Outstanding mind, but not unique. He built small bricks on shoulders of titans and with lots of help from his co authors. Would he be born 50 years earlier, none of his discoveries were made.

Anyway. This is outside the topic. Every person who does physics cares about "fundamental truths"
But even such great minds as Einstein build their models understanding limits of the model, in best case scenario.

Show HN: Follow.events – Discover new links everyday (follow.events)
I once read a HN comment the made an analogy to reading levels in a newspaper or other natural language. I found this very apt.

If you have a rich vocabulary and so does your audience, you can explain an idea succinctly. Imagine a chain of function compositions in one line, very declarative. You grasp it near immediately or else its very difficult.

If you don't, you use simpler words and need more of them. Imagine a few nested for loops in something like Go that you need to execute in your head to realize what's going on, but anyone can figure it out given a little time.

People frequently talk past each other on this topic. It can be very frustrating.
Food is cheap, it doesn't take a lot of work to not starve to death. Many of them can survive on odd jobs and hustles that aren't counted as employment. And many of them left their expensive city apartments and moved into friends of family's places where the entire mortgage payment is less than single room apartment rent. They severely reduced their expenses which means their pocket change turned into a sizable fund to live on.

And now if they do want to move back, rent prices have in many places doubled, so now they are demanding even higher wages to make up for it.

> Do scientists actually read what they cite?

I depends on ones probity, but yes the phenomenon is widespread. There are numerous reasons to cite a paper and just read it superficially: padding the references list, pleasing a reviewer by adding a paper he recommended, citing friends, etc. In my own lab they frequently cite a certain theory which if you actually read about it has nothing to do with what they are doing.
That's a severely strained comparison. We have only seen elementary particles at CERN etc. because we designed those systems to create the extreme situations which we predicted should be able to make elementary particles measurable, based on mathematics derived from empirical evidence. The fact that observable reality lines up so well with predictions in that case is a huge credit to empiricism, and a physical explanation for the universe.

If we had a CERN for the science of mind, it would be building an artificial brain and using it to replicate consciousness.

The term itself will become meaningless if hundreds, thousands (millions..) of people start lofting into the heavens every year.

Fundamentally, these guys have about as much control over their experience as your 'real' astronauts do.
I don't see why this is flagged. Is there some kind of convention that in the context of movies "k" must only be used in terms of resolution - but only if it's a well-know resolution? So "5k" movies will be ok to refer to 5000 movies but not "4k" or "8k" movies?

In fact the list contains many interesting movies, for instance Tarkovsky movies such as Solaris, The Mirror and Stalker. Or a film by Peter Greenaway about Darwin.

I am skeptical about the licensing, though, because many movies are probably not free. Also some on Youtube are "not available" (to me?). For instance "Fargo" is most likely not free.
Good question. I'm not sure how this is supposed to help keep records secure. Unencrypted copies will probably make it outside the computer. They'll probably be printed.

This culture has really backfired in practice.

What we now have is a proliferation of packages which do the same thing. The problem is that it is less likely that your dependencies are going to be using the packages, even though desired functionality is the same. For example, if you have two dependencies which need to do HTML encoding, chances are that they choose different packages for that job. So now as an app developer you have to pay for both.

This combined with a culture which loves Semver but doesn't mind breaking backwards compatibility ("just update the major version!") gives a huge mix of packages which can't be fixed by tree shaking.

I assume it was tested in a pressure chamber on earth to simulate the pressure and composition of Mars atmosphere.

Obviously it wouldn't be able to fly in the pressure chamber due to increased gravity, but by suspending it on elastic you can still test that the blade functions as intended.

The only bit you can't really fully test is the constants for the control loops in the flight control algorithm, but I assume they chose them with a lot of stability margin.
I think that is a fair point and anecdotally at least it gels with what I have observed. I've worked in quite a few food service settings when I was younger and the margins (in general of course; Soup du Jour is like 5/600% margin at least) are very thin.
However I wonder if this isn't just a symptom of the bigger problem; in order to pay better wages, consumer prices have to be raised because it's the only way to make enough margin to pay the employees BUT the real reason margins are so thin is because you are paying exorbitant rent to some faceless landlord who actually owns the building you operate out of; and it only ever goes up, never down; and your suppliers constantly raise their prices (or lower their quality) because they are in the same boat; and thus all that money that is generated by the tip of the spear (the restaurant, the retail store, the pub) is mostly being pushed back up to....the people who already have all the money...which is why they own all the buildings and rent them out to make more money....and so on. Just a thought :)
