Complaint: Vaccines don't slow the spread as is clearly seen in the states and countries with the highest vaccination rates still having huge surges so the choice for vaccination is an entirely individual one

response: Complaint: MANDATES WON'T STOP COVID

response: No one ever said vaccine mandates would stop Covid. What we keep saying is that vaccine mandates will save lives, reduce the strain on health services and reduce workplace disruptions from infected workers.

rebuttal: MANDATES WON'T STOP COVID
I wonder why France never offered Australia it's new Barracuda-class nuclear submarine. Did France not want to share? Was Australia too worried at the time about China's response to a nuclear-powered sub?

EDIT: Ah, it's explained somewhat at https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2021/sep/17/austr... Still leaves many open questions, though.
I suppose things aren't as expensive if you are a casual but I'm still surprised you can get 1k out of a pair of shoes. My mother also runs and is significantly lighter than myself and she gets shin splints if she doesn't change runners out at 500 miles. My current system is to run a pair of shoes for about 350 - 450 miles then downgrade them to a pair of walking shoes in till they fall apart.

I started running fairly casually but eventually started doing marathons. I run about 110 miles a month so I'm switching out shoes every 3 months. My feet suck so I'm also replacing a pair of orthotics every 2 years. I got a full set of summer and winter running gear and enough of each to last me a week. I also have a hydration vest, a GPS watch (not necessary but very useful), a set of Aftershokz bone conductive headphones so that I can listen to music while maintaining situational awareness, a pair of good sunglasses specifically for running (I sweat a lot and would not want to ware the same pair for everyday use), I have a few soft flasks that go in my hydration vest, and I've had to invest in a pretty decent treadmill to run on during the worst parts of winter.

Not everything I've listed is 100% necessary but as with most hobbies it finds ways to become expensive the more dedicated you are to it.

Me too. The podrace was amazing.
Changed now. Submitted title was "FDA panel rejects plan to administer Pfizer’s booster doses to general public". I'm not sure if that was the article's previous headline (legit) or an editorialized submission (not legit per https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html).

edit: according to other commenters, the article's own headline was changed (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28570880)
I added it now, but it turns out it's behind a CDN so I still can't crawl it.
I have to say, I'm amused by the strength of the pearl-clutching impulse illustrated by the wikipedia intro:

> Some express concerns such vessels could potentially be used for purposes other than smuggling.

I guess "but what if it facilitates the drug trade?" just wasn't available as an objection here.
I find all this mvp stuff just over complicating everything and just complex fluff.

What you need to know is if you can reach at decent scale people that will pay enough to give you a fat margin of profit for your product.

So you need a product that does the job, you need a scalable distribution channel and you need customers to pay enough to give you 60%+ margins.

That’s it. There’s no way around it. With both physical and digital products you can let people pre order them.

You need distribution-product-price fit. When you achieve that you can pour gas on the fire.

TL;DR Just create a damn landing page connected to stripe and take pre orders and make sure the price gives you lots of margin. Then spam
The distribution channel. That’s it.
You just wrote FDA fan fiction.

This comment shows how peoples’ unwitting exposure to political propaganda shapes their view of reality via an implicit bias which they interpret as “gut feelings”.

> In 2006, during the early years of the birth of lockdown ideology, the great epidemiologist Donald Henderson warned that if any of these restrictive measures were deployed for a pandemic, the result would be a “loss of trust in government” and “a manageable epidemic could move toward catastrophe.” Catastrophe is exactly what has happened. The current regime wants to point the finger toward the noncompliant. That is no longer believable. They cannot delay the inevitable for much longer: responsibility for this catastrophe belongs to those who embarked on this political experiment in the first place.

The topic has come up once or twice on HN before, so maybe try searching for "new cities" or something like that.

- All existing land is already claimed by someone, or by the government. There are insanely large parcels owned by individuals or small groups.

- Most existing water is claimed by someone hundreds of miles downstream.

- The overall US mindset (there are definitely exceptions!) has changed over the 20th and early 21st century from one of maximizing tangible accomplishment, to maximizing financial gain and minimizing loss. We're playing musical chairs instead of making more chairs.

- Mass media (Disney -- kid shows, superhero movies) creates the impression that the current geographic and cultural structure of society is the only possible structure of society, by making a few views seem ubiquitous, and everything else the domain of pure fantasy.

- Prior attempts eventually got ridiculed, like EPCOT (ironically enough also Disney). People won't leave you alone -- they'll insist that any hope of new ideas is unforgivable hubris, and do whatever they can to make their ridicule a self-fulfilling prophecy.

> Instead of one car per adult, it'll be one car per person once the kids get to primary school age in suburban families.

I was actually thinking that it would reduce car ownership. If I could commute and then send the car to home so that my wife could commute to her workplace, I definitely would! It would require syncing on who uses the car when, but at a more granular level compared to now ("I'm taking the car today" vs "I'm taking the car between 8-9am").

I wonder if there is some scaling factor here. That is in certain range submarines are more efficient. But then if you get big enough normal cargo ships do better. I would think that surface area plays big part, with big ships only certain area is under water, for submarines it's the whole thing. And for cargo ships it start to be big.

What they watch is shaped by recommendations, but I think most are also aware of it. For example, when I want to watch something about basketball I typically go to YouTube and there are recommendations of what to watch. There are probably millions of basketball videos, but YouTube is going to show me a handful based on previous videos I've watched and liked. I'm not surprised to see certain content creators more than others. But at the same time if they did a poor job of recommendation (like Spotify) then I'd probably just go and search through channels that I know I like.
https://github.com/zerotier/zerotier-systemd-manager
Something we’ve noticed in our house is that if YT can’t figure out who is watching, it just uses the IP address. So I get recommendations based on what my kids watch, and my wife gets random recommendations for stuff based on what I watch.

I’ve tried the “Don’t recommend this” trick, but because the kids are subbed (or otherwise watch it), it still keeps coming back.

As a counterpoint, the data loss incident made me a fan. They didn't treat it as a funny mistake, I don't think -- I remember one comment from one of the Gitlab engineers of "everyone is very sad, but we're trying." Something in that spirit.

Anyone who's ever worked with production systems knows how absurdly easy it is to ruin them. Yes, it was careless, but they responded with class: they didn't fire the engineer that made the mistake. That would have turned me into a gitlab enemy.

Recognizing that a process is dysfunctional is one of the hardest things for any company to do. There's an incredible amount of corporate inertia preventing such recognitions from taking hold. Are you sure it wasn't worth applauding?

There's also nothing wrong with getting big, or getting worse. The trick is to get worse in the ways that matter the least.

> In fact, when I model the average response to training across the entire group that I have VO2 and long-term training data for, I see an average shift from 54 to 67 ml/kg/min (a change of 24%) when a long-term, high-volume training plan is undertaken.
>
> Conversely, when a short-term, high-intensity training plan is undertaken, the model shows a maximal increase (in 4-6 weeks) to only 63 ml/kg/min (16%).
>
> So, while a 40% increase in VO2 max may not be considered “typical,” after my experience testing and observing athletes over the past 10+ years, I would have to consider a ~25% increase in VO2 max to be very typical given the right training over a sufficient period of time (the two items missing from those initial studies that suggested high genetic limitations).

Bait and switch. He starts out talking about averages over ordinary people suggesting 10-15% average improveability, and then presents a 25% estimate... from an extremely selected group of athletes after lots of attrition from those getting worse results (just what percent of the population even has VO2max numbers from a "long-term high-volume training plan"?). I would suggest that his end result strongly reinforces the original claim, rather than debunking it.

>Cellular phones such as iPhones cost hundreds of dollars. To make the phones more affordable, during the relevant time, AT&T subsidized the purchase cost of phones or sold phones to customers under installment plans. Unlocking a phone effectively removes it from AT&T’s network, thereby allowing the account holder to avoid having to pay AT&T for service or to make any payments for purchase of the phone.[0]

That's the argument from the DOJ. ~1.9M phones were unlocked and losses were estimated at $200M in unpaid fees. Back of the napkin math, but that would mean around 15-20% of users had balances owed on the phone. The rest were people just trying to make the thing functional.

I've been looking at the Surface Duo because I really need a pocket-sized tablet more than I do a cell phone. It recently went on sale, but locked to ATT's network. Legally, they are obliged to unlock the device on request. They can charge a fee if the hardware was intially subsidized, but they must unlock it. I was more than ready to pay full price for the phone until I saw what it would take to legally unlock the phone. Call agents didn't understand the process, there was conflict on whether ATT or Microsoft would have the ability or obligation to unlock. It would require multiple tickets and weeks worth of waiting, and you may end up with an unusable phone. If I hadn't done my research and was left with an non-functional device I definitely would have looked for alternative methods.

One perhaps counterintuitive thing about threads and gears
is the optimal "tooth" size is a function of the material strength, not the geometry of the object the tooth is on.

Another is that when regular involute gears mesh,
they press but do not rub, no sliding friction.

Here I am not seeing how to avoid sliding friction
which is a small price to pay for the extra degrees of freedom but one to factor in.
Your negativity is detrimental to this thread. Please check your tone, this is not the quality people writing on HN should strive for.
Decarbonization needs to sequester it as fast—actually, much faster—than we’ve been taking it out. 75 million barrels per day. IMO that is not attainable.

Well of course not. There isn't one. And the Senate can't pass one because the Constitution (happy birthday) doesn't allow them. Elizabeth Warren knows that a wealth tax is unconstitutional. She swore to support and defend the Constitution. And she is championing a wealth tax.

Same here, I'm physically disabled and YouTube is the only form of "tv" I watch, so I watch a fair chunk of it (understatement) and I've distinctly noticed a massive drop over the last... I want to say 6 months?... where I've found the recommendations to be totally useless.

Way way more recommendations for stuff I'd never consider watching, recommendations for "big" youtubers (I almost exclusively watch smaller channels based around niche hobbies), stuff like that.

I used to think their recommendation engine was amongst the best of any service I've used, now it's junk.
Helping out your friends and locals now and then is also normal human behavior. But it does not extend to running a society that way, and never has. It is rooted in building a network of mutual obligation, a common trait in small communities. It's not really considered a "reward" or payment.

> Unwillingness to work without immediate reward not an immutable fact of human nature.

Yeah, it is, as no society has managed to make that work as an organizing principle. Even the Israeli kibbutzen have failed. Altruism rarely extends beyond family and close friends, and even then, it isn't reliable.
> To my mind, it is "correlation" that is being posed as a "causation". Science is never certain, though the Climate Scientists are absolutely certain. See the disconnect? It is more likely this alarmist/doomsday position will be ignored completely by the public (the boy who cried wolf scenario).

This is very reductionist. Science is not certain, but we are talking about ~90% certainty here. What we cannot do is point at a given specific event and say “this was caused by climate change”. But we have a significant statistical sampling of weather events and we definitely can say that this is unprecedented and caused by global warming. Simple Bayesian statistics show that what we keep seeing year after year is all but impossible without sustained global warming.

> A better framing may be to say something like this: "All physical systems of this planet are interconnected. While we cannot be absolutely certain the worsening of weather is related to our behavior, there is mounting evidence that our behavior does, to a great extent, influence the climate. So it is in our hands to alter our behavior so the future generations can enjoy the earth like we do today. We owe it to them."

That is not a better phrasing at all. You’ve lost all of your audience by the end of the first sentence. A single hurricane is not caused by global warming (though some events, like the melting of the permafrost, the melting of Greenland’s ice, or the collapse of Antarctica ice sheets definitely are); but collectively all these freak events and these 1,000 years floods every other years are consequences of global warming. It is too late for the future generation to “enjoy earth as we know it”, and trying to make it sound like it is a possibility is doing humanity a disservice. That ship sailed, the objective now should be to do everything we could to mitigate the effects of what we’ve already done. We need more than a little urgency to do this.
