...in 2012 value of GBP. Right now the inflation-adjusted value is something like 112 GBP per MWh or so. You'll have to do the math yourself for future inflation.

Also the spot price remaining like this for the next 35 years is obviously out of question. These levels of prices will attract investments in generator technologies that can be scaled up very quickly.
"Floyd was arrested three months later during a traffic stop and a 7-year-old victim of the robbery identified him from a photo array"

Maybe the 7 year old who identified him was coerced by detectives. Anything is possible. That doesn't mean we discount all evidence presented with the thought terminating cliche "ACAB".
worth keeping in mind that Yandex and russian technology companies in general are used to running lean and profitable operations so unfathomed in the land of 0% interest rates and VC money on tap. If they continue as they are now (15 people) and convert customers like Cloudflare into paying engagements, there is nothing stopping them from being profitable.

Agree on this and multi-stop routes. I've been using Apple Maps with CarPlay for the last few years and I can confidently say it is better than google maps by a wide margin. The voice, UI, traffic and routing, map design won me over. The aerial and street view quality, while not the most important, are second to none.
No directions for people on bikes in Madison, WI makes this app still utterly useless for me.
Yes, the cooling aspect is what TFA says is doable. It's the heat transmission / drilling part that's hard (It's 400C or worse and 1+km down).

They have some reasonable solutions. We'll never do it. Environmental conservation groups would see it as a capitalist cash grab, and the right would see it as a waste of money and energy based on alarmist scientists getting too much press. And anyway, we'll drain all the water out of the west coast in 50 years and there'll be nothing left to set up a pump / capture plant.
I wouldn't have expected to be described as a "mystic", but that is the category I fit best, as do a lot of other people I know.

I suspect you'd lump me as an adherent of scientism, since I suspect that the answer to my questions will look more like that. But I have no trouble admitting that I don't know things. There's a lot of stuff I don't know.

I wouldn't even say it makes me uncomfortable. I wish I knew some things, but wishing doesn't make my life better. I do what I can to narrow down my realms of ignorance, and accept the stuff I don't know as a fact that besets the state of an ape-evolved organism with a mediocre, limited brain and a very finite existence.

I wouldn't take any comfort in most of the things I think of as mysticism. If my suspicion that the answers look more like science than mysticism makes me an adherent of scientism, then I accept that charge. But I think the term has a derogatory character which I don't believe really befits what I've described here.
> macvlan lets you offload switching to the network--so more of your CPU power can go towards running VMs. Since all traffic, even that between two VMs, goes via the external switch, that external switch can also perform auditing, accounting and policy enforcement. If you're a big enterprise with lots of expensive switches then you probably want to use them for these sorts of things, rather than push the job down to the hypervisors.

The current trend is to push that to DPU/IPU-style NICs which have their own cores. Previous generation thing was to reduce CPU load on hypervisor by offloading the packet processing so (smart)NIC.

There has to be though, no? If the popular perception of how order is kept is that it is a random draw of minorities from a hat then it would no longer serve the purpose of being a disincentive to do crime.

You can probably draw a very clear line between 'perception of fairness in the criminal justice system's and 'likelyhood to commit crime'.
Admittedly a low-effort post, and too late to delete, but just to explain, this whole idea of having a single bowl (used to collect alms) is a thing in monastic/ascetic traditions. Which I always get the sense minimalism is vaguely inspired by. Anyway, whatever, it was off-topic.
I work in a lab where there are lots of excel sheets floating around. I went one step further - when I save an xltm (an excel template), the code is exported and then a bash script automatically uploads it into my git repo. The VBA asks for a commit message and then all the rest is automatic. It's worked pretty well, all things considered.

ALL "ESG" is 100% fraudulent and not one bit about "Environment, Social & Governance". They are literally the very opposite of their stated morals, objectives and means. Completely "doublespeak"!
I'm not sure I really agree with that either. A lot of people would never consider ratting out their neighbors or classmates for smoking weed, for example. Lots of CA suburbanites make it a point not to ask the immigration status of their domestic help, and will do what they can to help out people they know who are at risk of being deported. I had one college dormmate with reported ties to the mafia; I made a mental note not to get on his bad side, but he was a nice guy so I was still friends with him. I had another college classmate whose aunt ran a famous Hollwood prostitution ring and had served time in federal prison; he was a douchebag so I didn't like hanging out with him much, but what his aunt did is her own business.

Thomas Watson Sr. still managed to found IBM after being sentenced to a year in jail for anti-trust violations as an NCR salesperson. Chesa Boudin got elected as San Francisco DA even though his parents were sentenced to prison for the felony murders of two police officers. Hell, he's a good example of someone who takes the side of criminals accused of petty theft or small-scale drug crimes.

I think there's some small subset of Americans who are Law & Order at all costs, but most people tend to have their own moral judgments about which are just and unjust laws, and they don't judge people harshly (or at all) for being accused of breaking unjust laws. Most people wouldn't take the side of a murderer or child predator. But a drug user or illegal immigrant? Lots of people take their side, even if they aren't one themselves.
The intention was to only show recommendations. But because of limited training data (we hand labeled ~4000 comments), the model wasn't able to filter out bad ones effectively. More training data should be able to solve it.

Good idea. I gave away a large copy machine - industrial strength, large size - the kind where you can feed it in 400 pages and it will do loads of double sided copies and staple things in minutes. Nice, but it was old, and I had no need any longer.

Put it on facebook market and had probably 40 messages in the first 2 minutes. I hadn't realized how easy/automated FB makes it to respond. And I felt like I was letting people down because I wasn't responding fast enough. Eventually one person came to my place to get it, but... they thought it was a printer, and they were looking for a printer, so they left.

I kept getting loads of the same "still available?" messages, then "when can you deliver?" and "you want me to come pick it up?!" messages. Like... it's a $1500 (used today) copier. It was probably $7000 new. It has extensions to hold 10000 sheets at a time. It's serious. No, I'm not driving to your house with this this to see if you might want it. WTF is wrong with people?

Many days later, someone connected. And... it was great, but I was so wary/tired of dealing with freeloaders and tirekickers that I was suspect with him too at first. But this guy ran a boys club a few towns away, and their last copier had broken, and they didn't have funds to repair it. This was such a windfall for them. He happily came over with a big enough truck, loaded it up, kept offering to pay me ("are you sure? this is a lot!") and was just so damn grateful that I hadn't given it away yet. I'm glad I waited a bit longer vs just paying a company to come and take it away.

Labels, particularly dismissive labels, cause harm.

Someone who is known to have committed a crime in the past, is what 'criminal' should mean. However the word has decayed to implicitly meaning 'career criminal', which might also be an apt label. Contrast to the phrase 'reformed criminal'.

The problem of __dismissive labels__ rather than specific labels being bad, hadn't been conveyed to me previously and this helps me see the rhetoric about avoiding other dismissive terms such as 'homeless' in a clearer light. Even the new PC terms often only get used in the same way; which does not solve the problem, nor communicate why the change in phrasing was necessary.
How do you allow government to enforce one thing (block illegal drug sales) while simultaneously preventing it from enforcing another (censorship)?
These laws continue to be abused by law enforcement to bully business owners who are operating in gray areas of the law, whether the gray-ness is caused by misaligned state vs. federal laws or unclear licensing and operation requirements.

It's one of my biggest gripes with Android. At best, I have gotten 2 years of updates (updates which come 8-12 months after the official Android release).

I could, of course, install a custom ROM. But that usually means (in my experience) that not all hardware features work, battery life is worse, I have to install updates myself and I am usually not as confident about device security. Despite these, I used to install and love custom ROMs a lot in college. when I had the time but not anymore.

On my iPad (while it lasted, RIP), I would get updates on the same day as official iOS release. Night and day difference.

The criminal justice system in the US demonstrably does not rehabilitate convicts. There is a clear causal link between being incarcerated for something like drug possession or petty theft and committing more serious / violent offenses in the future. Not to justify George Floyd's actions, but this is exactly the "web of laws designed to incarcerate black people".

I would love for basic interactions with strangers not to be tainted by gender-based power dynamics, but here we are; if you're in a position where you can ignore it, chances are that society has labelled you “more powerful” (more able to do what you want without social reprisal, etc.) and ignoring that is making other people uncomfortable.
I have consistently found the apple maps experience to be subpar when compared to competing navigation apps, most lately with laggardly updates to road closure status due to wildfires here in California. Other apps updated the roads in a fairly timely manner, but apple showed roads closed for several days after they were reopened by authorities.

Were Roman Emperors celebrated because of their true inner beauty as people or because they happened to be Emperors?

I think people should lose this need of being loved for what they truly are. It won't happen, nature is pretty strict about unconditional love and it's reserved for the offspring.

That's it. There is no room for watering that sentiment down or extend the universe of the recipients of unconditional love.

Offspring gets all the unconditional love, and it's stronger from the mother's side. Period.

All the other human relationships are transactions of some sorts.

Matter of fact the sorts of problems expressed in the video are not only 0.00001% problems, but they are also new problems for that particular demographic.

For sure Sinatra or Elvis didn't spend time thinking about if girls or friends were into them as individuals or were just jumping on the bandwagon of fame and money. Nowadays everything needs to be analyzed to evaluate the long term sustainibility or the "true" nature of that particular thing.
Unlikely. Safari supports stateless filtering (ie the blocker app doesn’t get to see your traffic, but just submits rules), and Gorhill has said uBlock cannot work with this restriction[0]. I understand Apple’s wanting to keeping blocking apps from spying and to ensure performance of the blockers, but the lack of uBlock on iOS is a huge pain point for me.

This is the key reason I'm moving to iPhone. The mobile hardware / software that utilizes it are no longer moving quickly enough to justify buying a new phone every few years for my use case.

Getting meaningful updates for the duration of how long I want to use the hardware for is a huge differentiator to me.
There's no single definition of those terms, and how they should be understood is itself a contentious ideological question, so what you're effectively asking is that HN be moderated according to your particular ideology. This comes up a lot, as you can imagine, and again, in my experience it has mostly to do with the passions of the person making the demand (whatever their particular ideology).

To put it crudely, ideologically passionate people want us to promote what they agree with and ban what they disagree with. That's no basis for moderating a diverse community, and it would be crazy-making to try—one would be walking into a hornet's nest of contradictory demands (because on what basis would we conform to one demand rather than another?), and the demands would only get stronger with every attempt to satisfy them. I don't think this is a good path.

There's nothing specific that you've brought up that isn't addressable by the way we moderate HN today. The fact that we don't see everything and that it takes time to moderate flagged comments are just practical realities of running the site. Demanding that we see and take care of everything instantly is unrealistic.

(I was editing this while you were replying- sorry. I don't think I changed the meaning of the comment.)
It shouldn’t be on the list because IMF and World Bank policies don’t “discuss and advocate for policies that benefit the extremely wealthy over others.”

I know many liberals want Bangladeshis to remain in a childlike state of nature doing subsistence farming forever, but the fact is that capitalism lifted America and Europe out of poverty and it’s doing the same thing for Bangladesh.

> Based on current evidence we do seem to be soulless biological machines though. We don’t feel like it nor do most of us act like it is, most of the time, but that doesn’t mean it’s not true.

The fact that we (or rather I) have an experience of reality as opposed to not having one is evidence that we are not simply biological machines. And by 'machines' I mean something like Searle's hypothetical Chinese Room, a system that operates based purely on sufficiently complex rules but has no experience of actually speaking Chinese. If you claim this is illusion, then what is experiencing the illusion?

[0] At least according to Searle. Other philosophers disagree, as do I. For the purpose of the argument though we will assume there is such a thing as an automata that doesn't have an experience of the world the way you and I do.
It just shows how "cargo cult" driven our industry is. Ruby was in. Then it was out, because it "doesn't scale". Then suddenly Python is in, even though it is has the exact same performance characteristics, give or take some constant value, as Ruby.

It's so aggravating on the Android side. While a Motorola One 5G Ace might not be a flagship, it came out in 2021 and I'm stuck on Android 10. I don't know if Motorola (who says I should expect Android 11) is the issue or if it's my carrier. Android 11 came out 4 months before the Motorola One 5G Ace came out. A year later, no Android 11.

I guess it's probably even more frustrating if you're paying Apple-like prices for a Galaxy S series device and not getting updates. At least I can think, "well, I got what I paid for."
