Yet that white minority is more willing to stop bombing non white across the world. It's a bit unreal but it's the truth. You ought to realize that you are also coming from an imo pretty... White-democrat point of view right? And my argument is exactly that a segment of the country, mostly white, went to such a extent to get revenge on the 2016 election that they sided with literally everyone they used to hate not even a decade ago. I'm sorry but how is that for nihilism? Your arguments are again very philosophical, but in a way just dismiss the destruction of an entire generation of Iraqi (and Syrian, by ripple effects) because a nihilistic trend of your political opposition rising? I'm sorry but come on! Like you are exactly doing what I was critizing in the first place. "those people may have died, and that region may have been hopelessly destabilized but at least Bush (who literally was elected by the supreme Court which makes this even more ironic) wasn't nihilistic?". The guy that came up with you are either with us or you are with the terrorists?

Of course it's worse than 2 wars you have never been affected by.
The entire USA had a complete meltdown over allegations of Russians rigging the elections, without any American casualty. In fact I'd bet that one of the reason you are saying trump broke democracy is probably related to those allegations. But when the US is destroying entire countries it's no big deal? I hope you can see the cognitive dissonance there or at least why your point of view is very very white centered. And that's without even getting into how the democrats attacked the integrity of the elections for years, rightly or wrongly yet I don't see how that didn't directly undermine trust in democracy. It was a dance-à-deux, and if trump ends up breaking democracy down the line it's not because one side pushed against it. My point here is that no matter how you look at it, the entire thing is related to partisan politics not a righteous crusade that couldve somehow justified arguing that 2 desastrous, decades long wars were in fact less important/bad.

But that's all unrelated. Look, I'm not American, not white and not Christian.to me it boils down to this. I don't think anything is more cynical and cold than to publicly downplay and rehabilitate a figure that caused so much more pain and suffering because that would score points. That's it.

I really didn't want to come off as insulting you, honestly. And I get that some things can't really be expressed in a non offensive way (even if that's not the intention) when it comes to heated subjects like this. That's why I'm not going to touch on some of your other points. Again, it's not because I'd have insulted you otherwise, but because I don't know how to express what the war on terror felt like from the "inside" without inevitably sounding hyperbolic.

> What we really should be asking is why is google examining user data at all.

Without reading into the details, I don't think that google arbitrarily examines all user files on Google Drive (and please correct me if I am wrong, but that's what I remember since the last time this discussion was had).

Google only examines files that were shared with other users or were made accessible to others through a shareable link. Which, sorta makes sense, because that's how a lot of people shared illegal content or streamed videofiles (sort of like a personal youtube). And if you don't share those files with anyone and just keep it as your personal cloud drive, I don't think they examine it.

>why on earth would they allow him to use gmail or android?

Google is essentially your mail service (gmail), video platform (youtube), cloud storage (gdrive), and tons of other completely separate services. In physical world, violation of terms of one of the services leads you to being banned only from that service, unless criminal law gets involved. If the law gets involved, then the law can get you banned from using quite a lot of services. But until the law makes the judgement, being banned from a grocery store cannot automatically and without any recourse get you banned from your bank, your car insurance, your mail service, and many other things.

I guess my point on the latter is that no private business (but law) should be able to prevent a person from using multiple completely unrelated vital services. Here are a few scenarios I thought of that would illustrate how it would work:

* An airline banning you for being an asshole on a flight by adding you to a denylist used by other airlines as well? That's congruent with my idea, because it is all within the same service (airlines), and it won't be done automatically.

*A judge completely blocking you from flying by locking you up for participating in terrorist activities? Sure, because the law did it after an investigation and followed proper legal processes.

*Wells Fargo closing down your account because you were an asshole at Kroger when shopping for groceries and got banned from that store? That would be crazy talk.

The only difference between the google scenario and the kroger+Wells Fargo scenario is that kroger+WF are not a part of the same company. But would it be acceptable for WF to close down your account if WF and Kroger were a part of the same parent company? In my opinion, it wouldn't be ok.
It really doesnt take much to figure out the answer.
AI Can Be Applied to the Enterprise
Can we please stop posting Foone to HN? They’ve stated multiple times that they don’t want to be posted here and every time they end up posted they complain and ask for it to be taken down.
Basically this seems to be saying that this is a no-go at the moment and possibly forever. We’re going to need innovation on top of innovation on top of innovation to make this work…if it can be done at scale. To me though I think we’re looking at the wrong problem. Why scale the technology up? Could we just build smaller facilities…like a lot of them that serve as local hubs that cultivate and grow for an area? You know…like a farm? Go to your local “farm” to get the meat. If the hump is scale…stop scaling get smaller.

I’m cynically assuming the answer to why this won’t work is that there’s no money in it so no one would fund it.
One of the simplest functions of a justice system - before impartial judgement, before detailed laws, before qualified advocates - is simply the right to summon a powerful person to justify their actions. Increasingly it seems that we will need this to be applied here, ideally in some simpler and less costly way than a full trial. It is just wrong for companies to make money by inviting people to rely on them , and then ghosting if something goes wrong.
Actually it is, it's just well hidden, their support is their developers in their spare time and reachability is your social connectivity graph distance to the next googleyesguy.

Ps: you can increase likelihood of solution by adding words that suggest legal liabilities.
It says PiKVM has support to press power buttons etc. Does PC hardware also have means for health checks, to determine if this is needed? Could be a useful feature
They have pulled books before I believe. However there are many good drm free ebooks. I still use a Kindle because I like the device but I keep it in airplane mode nearly all the time and copies of drm free books on my pc.
Edit: I manage my library with calibre and the device plugged in. You never have to take it off airplane and it gets better battery life.
Honestly, I think conventional vegetarian food manufacturers will produce quality substitutes far before lab meat is even a rate luxury, much less commonplace. Beyond Meat is already excellent.

Scaling back labmeat targets to simple liquid slurry gravies that could be used as flavor additives to fakemeat products seems more achievable.
IMO, the real issue is relying on any single storage solution for such critical and hard to replace data. You should always have multiple, redundant, tested backups of such data, the minimum being 3 copies, in 2 different formats, with at least one located offsite.

That said, Google does ha reputation for this shit, especially on their free plans, so, you should definitely keep that in mind when storing data on Google Drive.

I'm having difficulty discerning what your position on the social/culture barrier is.

Is it that the West has failed to realize a future in insect-consumption that other regions/cultures already have? Or that this future won't be realized unless the West in particular embraces consumption of insects?
Yep. I use Anaconda fairly frequently, and it's consistently buggy on both the UI and CLI front; this seems like a better alternative for beginners at least. On the flip side, I'm not sure I like that it's yet another electron app.
> Nothing on this scale has ever existed—though if we wanted to switch to cultivated meat by 2030, we’d better start now. If cultured protein is going to be even 10 percent of the world’s meat supply by 2030, we will need 4,000 factories like the one GFI envisions, according to an analysis by the trade publication Food Navigator. To meet that deadline, building at a rate of one mega-facility a day would be too slow.

Optimistically it seems even according to this article that most of barriers for affordable cultivated protein are with high capital costs and once the factories are built, you can eventually amortize a lot of the costs aka how solar/electric cars did so. Also they are aiming for a self-imposed 2030 deadline, sure it might take until 2040/2050 but nothing the article says it won't eventually be built. (Unlike say the water/housing/ education/healthcare crises with bottlenecks of land/regulations/labor)
This is nice, I just compiled it, but how do I play it? I can't seem to find any instructions on the website...
It’s because on this website there is a huge number of people that just drink whatever is the kool-aid du jour that goes around in the right side disinformation circles and social networks.

Imagine to oppose a perfectly safe vaccine that has been administered 6 BILLION times all around the world and that has a proven efficacy of at least one order of magnitude against delta variant and to push for a horse dewormer (that bear in mind it’s perfectly effective for what is used for.. killing parasites, not viruses)

I think it’s because a lot of the HN demographic has quite a big overlap with the people that use social networks where all this bullshit originates and it is amplified and it spreads.
GGP: ivemectin has some unpleasant and dangerous side effects in some people rarely. [...] people are taking a risk of having a horrid side effect with no chance of the pill working.

X: How many got the horse formulation and how many got adverse effects from [horse formulation]?

C: Who said anything about adverse effects?

Field Notes of a Sentence Watcher
There is a decent chance this article is correct but I also dislike part of article's focus.

The part I dislike was focusing a lot on the size of the reactors needed in order to replace the US meat production. It is a bit unfair to compare the size of a bioreactor to a meat packing plant without considering the size of all the (organic?) bioreactors... livestock. There are ~30M cattle in the US at any given time so the volume is considerable. To ignore the infrastructure and space that livestock use is making the implicit claim that livestock are 'free' instead of 'cheaper currently'.

Considering how efficient meat production is (at the expense of everything else), we can basically make a single head of cattle as our standardized unit to evaluate the cost & thermodynamics.

Basically at scale is a engineered bioreactor cheaper than the natural blood & bones bioreactor? Certainly not upfront unless small scale bioreactor in a bag technology... oh wait that exists [1]. Sucks that pricing isn't easy to get but I think it is still more expensive than fixed/reusable vessels at least over time.

It's really hard to know without having more knowledge about the specifics of but I think there's a lot of unexplored areas that makes these projects worthwhile.
> Injection refers to content inserted into a page from outside. An example of this would be Brave's "tip" buttons on Twitter. The browser [injects] an object into the page which can trigger tipping UI in the browser when clicked. This feature didn't inject anything; it displayed an affiliate-link option in the browser's interface.

That is a one meaning for the injection. In this case, you injected HTTP GET parameters (referrals) for the domain URL suggestion which was written by the user. And that you can of course call only as "a pre-search suggestion", but in reality user had to remove them by hand/typing the whole url in that time to not use them, as it was injected into the url.
I’m waiting for this to be available in a broom form factor so we can finally play Quidditch.
I feel like this is going to be really great for people getting started with programming. A Big Fat Binary is really what early programmers need.

Now imagine that it comes with Postgres.app as well (with a little glue to turn it on via a button in the Jupyter UI, and automatic off when the server shuts down...), and the xeus-sql kernel.

If this gets halfway decent reviews, this is how I'm going to tell people to learn to program. No more needing to learn how the terminal works, explaining what a binary is, what an interpreter is, etc. All of that can come later.
my understanding is that most cattle are fed on a combo of both. on pasture initially then moved to feedlot later in the process to fatten up

There have been a lot of WW2 fanboys who have been writing fawning articles about nazis who won a medal or two and were secretly, actually anti-Hitler the whole time. The reality, as far as documented, is that most of these were run of the mill soldiers without any known tendencies to be treasonous in wartime. She's been finding most of the heroics to be bullshit, and the real soldiers to be nobodies, and hence having the articles deleted per WP non-notable policy.
A significant proportion of the Earth's land surface is currently dedicated to either growing animals or growing animal feed.

If those stats include wild areas double-used as grazing land, then "dedicated" is too strong of a word.
this is probably the only valid criticism in this thread so far. But your statement is not entirely correct:

- An organization different from Helium Inc. disperses keys to hardware manufacturers.

- Said independent org also performs an audit and approval process.

- Improvements to the network are crowdsourced and voted by rough consensus.

- Anybody can make suggestions or implementations similar to ethereum improvement proposals.

- Once deployed, there is no way to remove the node from the network.

- Nobody has banning or revocation abilities.

Independence of Mongolia maybe talking about "Inner Mongolia," which has ten times as many people as the country of Mongolia. My guess with the Palestine piece is the "Muslim terrorists" in Xinjiang would be interested in that.
It's not a placebo pill, it's an active medication that has effects on the body and undergoes metabolism. Ivermectin inhibits cytochrome P450, which the majority of prescription and OTC drugs are metabolized by.

Administration of a P450 inhibitor will cause the levels of other medications in a person's blood to rise, and will cause some prodrugs to be ineffective due to reduced metabolism.

I can't even walk into a doctors' office and get prescribed Singulair, an allergy medication, without giving them a reason to believe that I need it. And if I was a doctor, I'd err on the side of caution, as well, when it comes to prescribing things I don't think my hypothetical patients need. Not only is it a question of ethics, it's also a question of legal liability and keeping a license to practice.
There is some data though, such as it causeing your intestinal lining to strip off and look like worms in your poo
So, people/companies heavily invested in the animal meat production do research and find out that artificial meat production will be economically unfeasible. Just like GM found out electric cars unfeasible or Shell/BP/etc - solar/wind energy. Back then at Sun the Linux/x86 was also considered a joke. Just like ARM at Intel. ...

The artificial meat will be not only cheaper, it will be healthier. You will be able to customize it for your health and well being. And human civilization stopping killing other sentient beings - the impact of that is hard to estimate. For example it will allow to develop various empathy related areas of our mentality which are currently naturally suppressed. That will tremendously affect all aspects of human society.

Cython is so great. The two easiest ways I know to speed up python are 1) can I write this arraywise with enough cleverness (it's much more frequently doable than I always expect, and often comes with clarity gains) and just use numpy, and 2) just use cython. If cython wasn't such a pain in the ass to debug, maybe we'd all be writing cython instead of python today.

I definitely understand the sentiment and curious if you researched options before making this switch?
If you haven't used them in awhile, Visual Studio Code notebooks (which leverage Jupyter) are now at a level that they're better than Jupyter/JupyterLab for Python Data Science. It now integrates more closely with themes/settings, and has many additional features such as native debugging, native diffing for Git, Intellisense/autocomplete, and in general the UI/UX is faster.

That said, a desktop JupyterLab is still very valuable as it increases accessibility dramatically, but it's no longer the only player in the space.

Not sure why you're being downvoted, you're right. HN commenters just love to take every opportunity to hate on Apple.

Nobody said Apple's security is perfect. People's views are simply biased because when Apple's much tighter security is breached, of course it will make headlines everywhere. Windows and Android have far more malware, but you won't see headlines about it every single day.

Either way, unless you're a journalist, politician or some other high-value target, you're pretty unlikely to be targeted by exploits like the NSO one. But if you don't care about jailbreaking, you can still update your device to give yourself peace of mind.

Shit. That's an excellent point. Thanks for making me realize it. I'm being absolutely glib about 1M+ deaths. Yeah, that's totally privilege. My bad. I'll go think on that for a while. Yes, I'm a white liberal and I haven't been called out this succinctly and correctly in a long time. I responded like shit because I got angry, my apologies. Thanks again.
I think this article is more clickbaity than it should be. From a physics perspective, of course you should be able to grow meat, because we do it now with a bunch of other unnecessary things like thoughts, nerves, behaviors, etc. There is no reason in principle that it cannot be done.

But it's a lot of work, which everyone agrees.

I personally think a blend of lab grown and veggie (Impossible/Beyond) will be the first "killer app": tastes better and costs less than traditional meat for most applications.

IMO impossible is close now for some cases, cost is probably the main issue with some extra flavor that I think may need to be synthesized.
