I switched out my whole yard to zoysia (which is one of those creeping vine grasses like Bermuda). I picked it over Bermuda because it grows in thicker. I went from watering at least once a week to maybe once or twice a year if at all. That is in a area with an ok amount of rain.

I liked this type of grass as it grows relatively slowly which means about half the amount of mowing needed to be done. Low water (less than Bermuda), kills most weeds (less pesticides and weed killers), less mowing, those are the upsides. Downsides are turns yellow in October and does not turn green until the end of april (not HOA friendly), and like most creeping vine grasses is invasive and hard to get rid of if you do not like it, it also grows very poorly in shaded areas. Aggressive trimming is also needed when it reaches walkways, streets, driveways, and the side of your house.

I also spent a good amount of time building up a decent bed for the grass to grow in with mulching and proper aeration. Another thing I did was to make sure I had a good mix of the correct type of insects, moss, worms, and transplanted from local areas potting soils for other bits in the soil, trying to keep area and the type of grass in mind. As the original builder had scraped off the good stuff, leaving me with clay and rocks and rye grass, then took it to another site before I bought the place. This helped tremendously with the soil. Though I could have done better on my homework with that.

Depending on where you live, what sort of rain you get, and the soil types, this can be a 1 year job or a 10 year job. It really takes time to do.

The K+P vs. K scenario being discussed is not the one where the K player dies (loss, because K+P could have won). It’s the one where the K+P player dies (draw, because K could not have won).

K+N vs. K or K+B vs. K are already an automatic draw regardless of the players’ ability to make future moves, so death would not be a relevant factor there.

If you don't mind me asking, what sentence embeddings model (bert/roberta/etc) did you have the best luck with for your classifier? I like the quick retrain that can be done with an approach like this, though I have found that if you throw too many different SPAM profiles at a classifier it starts to degrade, and you might have to build multiple and ensemble them. The embedding backend can help a lot with that.
The Gardeners do this in Margaret Atwood's Oryx and Crake (MaddAddam trilogy), one character derives much comfort from telling the bees. I didn't know it was an actual custom, how wonderful.

Johannes here from Gitpod. Shared some background about differences on Twitter already: https://twitter.com/jolandgraf/status/1442850063953313805?s=...

Essentially, we run nightly builds at OpenVSCode Server making it as upstream to VS Code as possible. In contrast to other forks the whole scope of the project is to add a minimal set of changes (specifics about what we added https://github.com/gitpod-io/openvscode-server/blob/main/doc...)

The architecture we use powers both Gitpod and GitHub Codespaces. Several of the devs and organisations that have asked for our implementation & now have adopted OpenVSCode Server referenced the following issue at Code-Server (https://github.com/cdr/code-server/issues/3835).
You’re right, fabs need more water than a swimming pool, maybe a big swimming pool.

The fabs in Arizona are likely not going to be the main cause of water shortages there. How do I know this? Cause when Motorola had its massive (and inefficient) fabs running there in the 90’s-00’s and there were water shortages, they kept running just fine off their on premise reserves.

Modern fabs are even more efficient with water usage.

I know this because I have visited the old fabs and they are quite good at re-using and capturing the water since it’s inside an air controlled bunker. Modern (and older) fabs aren’t open to air, so water loss is minimal.
Yikes, that's not good, sorry. I wonder if there's something specific with your setup, we haven't had any problems like that from other users today. If you could email help@rescuetime.com I'd love to help figure out what happened.
Yes, I'll try the next release, that's why I said it wasn't released yet :)

'Free Trade' is the attempt, more or less, to provide 'level playing field' for companies, even of other nations. It's why the WTO exists, it's why USMC exists etc..

Most of China's actions described above are fairly perfectly against the spirit of those deals, and probably the letter of the deals as well, and they should have never been allowed in.

Capitol controls, direct control of the banking sector, arbitrary regulations that affect valuations fundamentally such as refusing to allow listing on US exchanges 'out of the blue', similarly.

It's not really an open economy, and Western economies shouldn't be entirely open to it either. The best 'trade policy' we could put in effect would be to put in place all the same barriers that they have.

Here's the data on bed availability where I live (Wales):

https://statswales.gov.wales/Catalogue/Health-and-Social-Car...

To pick out two dates, roughly at each Covid peak:

16 Apr 2020: 3,033 general beds occupied, 3,200 general beds available. 190 ICU beds used, 204 ICU beds available.

25th Jan 2021: 7,840 general beds occupied, 1,459 general beds available. 218 ICU beds used, 49 ICU beds available.

The publicly-available statistics do not support the notion that our hospitals are in dire straights due to sheer numbers of patients, nor the idea that they were full to bursting with Covid patients. As I have said repeatedly, they were emptier than usual.

Further, denigrating anyone who disagrees with you as "shrill" does you no favours.

Edit: Hopefully you understand why I'm upset about this topic. I suffered with a very young family under effective house arrest for many months, and many further months of restrictions (some of which are ongoing), as well as the inevitable long-term effects on my country, all to "protect the NHS". As the figures clearly show, at the peak of the first wave, the hospitals were less than 50% full.

The immediate question is - what on earth else has gone wrong?

I don't think that will work because Google controls Chromium. They will play a long game to sabotage the abilities of smaller Chromium browsers to block ads. Advertising is their business model and they have a lot of money to spend on crushing smaller browsers that have a different vision of what the Web should be.

I don't think it was just because we were younger. I also don't think it was just because of the visuals (though those helped). I think a lot of it was because things were moving so fast.

The 386 was an astonishing improvement over the 286. But now, the next generation Intel chip is... kind of nice, I guess? But it's not all that exciting.

Windows 95 was a massive improvement over Windows 3.0. Windows 11 doesn't make many people very excited compared to Windows 10.

A 20 Meg hard drive was miles ahead of floppies. But the last storage improvement was... nice, but not life-changing.

Hercules graphics was massively better than stock IBM PC graphics. The latest graphics card is exciting if you're a gamer, I guess, but it doesn't move the needle much for everyone else.

And so on. It was eye-opening every month to see what was new. It doesn't feel like that any more.

Typical oldschool enterprise software that has database tables instead of a decently abstract model, pages instead of services, "it should happen very rarely" instead of invariants, "don't do that" instead of validation, lore instead of design, etc.

What's particularly contrary to DDD principles and common is mixing up different concerns without regard for model integrity (e.g. ad hoc incorrect caching of stale data for performance reasons, messing up all business logic).

Have you thought about a native version? I get the appeal of writing for the browser but it's so damned slow compared to what you could get natively.
I do it but you need a client that supports it in replies. The Fastmail web UI allows you to send from the custom email address. Clients like iOS Mail demand you configure an account-per-sender rather than letting you add an arbitrary address to the from: line.

I end up in a situation where if I don't pay close attention I leak my "main" email address.
There's a big world outside of the HN trashcan. It is widely accepted that "the orange hellsite" is a haven for right-wing sexist, racist, reactionaries. And here you are once again proving that point.

There's a reason things like #hnwatch and shithnsays exists. Since the mods are hellbent on keeping this place full of racists, the best bet is to talk about it on other sites:

Same here - I used RT early on, when I was younger and more naive, and stopped when it dawned on me what data is being sent out. I would gladly use a local-only version; I remember your application circa 2012 being excellent. I just am not comfortable with the privacy aspect.

There is no correct way to do the content moderation, so on my website, https://roastidio.us I don't plan to have any. My rules are simple:

* you can say whatever you want to say, but only one person, the one you replied to, get to see it other than youself

* the one you replied to get to approve whether it can be shown to other people. No further reply is allowed until this one is approved.

* Even the one you replied to don't approve your comment, the comment will not be deleted and will still be visible to you.
C# is probably a better bet than Java for PC/mobile games nowadays, as Unity is the second biggest game engine besides Unreal now, and probably the most common amongst smaller and indie companies, and that's C# under the hood. You'd also be able to make Android and iOS games from the same codebase.

The radiation is destroying nothing. The salt dome itself wasn't as stable as thought before, but that has nothing to do
with any radiation. Which btw. isn't much at all, even though the waste has been thrown into caverns recklessly. The really bad stuff sits still above ground in CASTOR cases, sometimes in storage sheds, sometimes under open skies, some in so called temporary storage at the power plants, sometimes in another country, until it's reprocessed. Don't spread lies.
github.dev is solely the VSCode frontend/editor without access to any compute. OpenVSCode Server allows you to run VS Code on a remote machine and access it with a thin client through the browser. Unlike github.dev you get full access to the underlying OS and can run tests, compilation, install dependencies etc.

The value is in knowing who leaked your email address, and being able to take action based on that. If you use a unique address for every service then you can know for certain random Internet store got hacked, or sold their database. In either case, you kill the credit card you used (privacy.com) for that store before it gets used elsewhere, saving you additional time and money on having to deal with your banks.

Here is exhibit A on a company that has exhausted its strategy but is compelled by the nature of Capital to seek additional growth. I remember seeing many years ago an anecdote of Steve Jobs telling Drew Houston to sell to Apple because Dropbox was just a feature, not a company (it was connoting that Jobs was wrong about that). Although Drew was right not to sell at that time it looks like Jobs was also right.
Not sure why this is more appealing than Wasabi? As far as I can see, Wasabi is cheaper, has great speeds, fantastic S3 compatibility, their dashboard is a joy to use so what is the actual "special" thing here? I mean sure, it's a good thing to have more competition but the way everyone here is describing the situation makes it seem as if Cloudflare is going to be the cheapest & the best.
TheSoul Publishing Reveals Its First Digital Music Artist
People still live car independently but oftentimes its not by choice. Commuting on the bus in LA I would see a lot of old men and women and immigrants who would come onto the bus with groceries or children in tow. That sort of lifestyle is already possible, but we only see people with no other choice in transportation riding the bus for the most part. If we want to convince people to leave the car behind and walk and take the bus to the grocery store, we have to improve the convenience argument of the bus vs. the car. For instance, my trip to costco is an hour on the bus or 20 minutes by car, due to having to transfer to another bus line and the bus being not very frequent, not to mention stuck in traffic. If the bus ran in its own lane and was a lot more frequent, travel time to costco would drop dramatically and might even beat the car commute if the car lanes are clogged with traffic and the bus is moving at full speed without stopping at red lights.

It's not even a question of implementing expensive infrastructure like boring out a subway line. The bus lines in LA at least already go everywhere, but are so slow. Buy a few more busses, hire a few more operators, increase frequency dramatically to 5 minute headways all day, paint a lane and install a curb, set the lights to flick green when the bus is coming. Just doing that alone on major bus corridors would do so much good for improving quality of life in LA and be a model for cities around the world of how to incentivize transit in an area dominated by car modal share.
Fedora 35 Beta Released with Many New Features, Countless Package Updates
Can't help but think back to W. Edwards Deming's distinction between after-the-fact efforts to "inspect" quality into the process -- as opposed to before-the-fact efforts to build quality into the process.

OP offers a first-rate review (strategy + tactics!) for the inspection approach.

But, the unspoken alternative is to rethink the on-ramp to content-creation privileges, so that only people with net-positive value to the community get in. That surely means a more detailed registration and vetting process. Plus perhaps some way of insisting on real names and validating them.

I can see why MVPs skip this step. And why venture firms still embrace some version of "move fast and break things," even if we keep learning the consequences after the IPO.

But sites (mostly government or non-profit) that want to serve a single community quite vigilantly, without maximizing for early growth, do offer another path.
I've got "Component has crashed" on mobile Firefox, not very optimistic :)
Arizona has a few major things going for it:

- lack of seismic activity

- very cheap, flat, easily excavated land

- rich history of fab production (see: Motorola) which provides the necessary city infra, construction groups, supply distribution to build such fabs

- consistently dry climate that despite being hot, is easily controlled for humidity

- numerous tax and subsidy enticements to do business there
Im sure the primary use for this tool will be ethical /s

Even without seeing that stuff, seeing a constant stream of bad behaviors with the probably-good behavior filtered out can subtly change your priors about people - it makes you start thinking people suck more in general, kind of like how watching news where they show the worst of the worst makes one trust people less.

I definitely used to notice this after some time working on our moderation queues.

I'll admit while I'm inclined to believe that it's better to distribute money to workers rather than investors, I don't understand the economic mechanics that makes this true.

I do understand that the rich aren't gong to spend as much as the middle and lower classes, but I don't have a good answer for the predictable trickle-down rebuttal: the wealthy will invest rather than spend, and that investment funds jobs which put money in the pockets of the poor (but perhaps more so in the pockets of the rich?). You sort of touch on that: "consumption is what drives the economy", but I think the trickle-down economics folks would agree and argue that their job-creation-via-investment results in increased consumption? I have a headache.
