We produce 700 cubic kilometers of hydrogen, but almost all of it is produced through steam reformation. No, we can't reuse the equipment that makes the hydrogen, we have to replace almost all of it with carbon neutral alternatives.

And no, most of the infrastructure connecting these can't be reused either. Our existing hydrogen production facilities are set up to produce the hydrogen as it's needed for other industrial processes. Our existing hydrogen economy does not have a significant storage capacity. Rather, it's set up to minimize the need for hydrogen storage altogether. For your proposed renewable grid, we'd likely be transporting methane many miles away from its generation to under ground storage facilities. Sure, the existing pipes connecting to fertilizer plants can still be used. But we still need a lot more pipes connecting electrolysis plants, to storage sites, and to hydrogen to electricity production facilities. This isn't something our existing infrastructure is set up to support.

Your proposal has us effectively rebuilding our hydrogen economy from the ground up: First, changing production from steam reformation to electrolysis. And second, building out a vast hydrogen storage and transportation network to deliver this hydrogen to where energy is needed. There's a lot more to your proposed hydrogen grid storage than just valves and pipes.
I wonder how good the adoption is for that product. Didn’t they adopt a new name recently?
The goal with this project is to leverage image recognition so that you can use half the ink while having better looking prints. Check it out and let us know what you think!
Its obvious, no?

The cost of new equipment is put on the consumer. The companies selling the (v. expensive) products, have a captive market.

Why not transition this out slowly?

This method forces people to spend a large amount to complete a task that they can do with their existing equipment.
The numbers are probably even less favorable since the vaccinations have been skewed to the older population for much of the time.
I think you lost track of the thread. I was replying to a concern about powering a house, not a landscaping operation.

No, power over others is intrinsically bad, as it's the ability to force people to do things whether or not they think it's what they should be doing. Sometimes it's necessary to prevent further harm, of course. So we should always be seeking to limit and diminish power differentials in society.

If you disagree, you can demonstrate your commitment by giving me unlimited power of attorney. I'll use that to your assets and income to my accounts and I'll give you back whatever's truly best for you. I am obviously good, so you can trust me on this.
Propane generators will also be banned in this bill.
I was using adopt jdk since that's much easier to download the jdk (especially jre) for Windows and Linux. The new Adoptium didn't git a jre build, which is sad :(
I find some of these recommendations confusing, there doesn't seem to be reasons to back them.

For example:
> Use Corretto, only if you run Java applications directly on Amazon Linux 2 in AWS

Why?
What a terrible day to be literate.
> It's simply not possible to track "natural immunity" in a suitable way to protect the public.

Why? Germany and many other countries don't differentiate between forms of immunity.

Yeah, but then you're not in OpenSCAD anymore, and any subsequent building step has to happen in solvespace, which while it is a nice package, does not have the flexibility of openscad.
Yes! I wish this was known. Mine lasted a couple of days. Thought I'd never feel joy again.
And by doing fewer jobs per hour, everyone pays more.
I guess silicone is a good material to make a seamless mould of a smooth object. Since it's flexible you can remove it from the original object without cutting it.

We were prepared, but our leaders threw away the book, and stopped funding for the supplies we'd need to deal with a plague. We're not done with Covid, we haven't dealt with the Long Covid cases that have disabled so many of us.

We need socialized medicine as a basis of any national strategy, but the donor class won't allow it. So, we'll never be ready, if we manage to come out of Covid in the first place.

You can go a long way with just 3D printing a mould in PLA and then just filling it with silicone. I've done some parts this way, and haven't felt the need to use mould release for either the silicone from the mould, or the resulting glass reinforced epoxy parts from the silicone. Not for body use in my case.

I modeled some plastic parts as a meta-mould to make a mould for some parts I wanted to make.
LA banned leaf blowers years ago near residences but you couldn't tell because LAPD can't be bothered to enforce laws like this.
The notion of China posturing to defend / support the idea of intellectual property is patently hilarious.

A better way to phrase it would have been: "You cannot bend reality to your will simply by denying that it is what it is at the moment." (c.f. the manager who bellowed "I will not accept this forecast!") But that's not nearly as catchy a slogan as "you can't fight reality" notwithstanding that the latter is, as you point out, a vacuous tautology. For better or worse, part of current reality is that people are more attracted to catchy slogans than to nuanced truths, and so choosing to use the slogan is actually an example of employing the underlying advice.
Newspaper3k is a Python package I’m using to extract content from articles across the web.

But it has not been maintained, since the author joined Facebook.

It works alright, but it has many issues.

If I understand correctly, a full on replacement for newspaper is in the wings, seeking to offer a sustainable content extraction tool in Python.

But it isn’t ready yet. And some of the problems in this area mirror those faced by web scrapers.
Some of the most interesting BPF applications seem to be these tools here: https://github.com/iovisor/bcc
The OP (who works at that shop and knows the demand and supply), explained in the post that they have a massive freezer that's mostly empty they could throw this stuff into for a day or so until it's picked up by soup kitchens.

This isn't (or shouldn't) be an age thing. It is a 'stage of learning" thing.

If you are new to Linux (or even all Unices) and you want to get a firm understanding of the fundamentals, it may very well be worth while to go through it at least once and see all the moving parts. And see them in an order that makes their dependencies clear(er).

Once you know all that and just want to keep up with the constant churn of versions to keep that one webserver running and recent? Yeah. Not worth it. Get some distro that matches your preferred characteristics and stop worrying if you need to update libBLA to recompile Apache to fix the path traversal vulnerability. That also removes the question if that library still compiles correctly with gcc 7 or if you need to upgrade to at least gcc 9...

Edit: Doing it in a VM first, might help in getting the 99 percent working first linux installation into a usable shape to make it a good daily driver. In that sense it helps lowering the barrier to actually switching later on.
Norm Macdonald's story about the first time he met Bob Dylan
What a BS argument. It is indeed easier to verify vaccination than natural immunity. That is a cold hard fact, and people who contradict it don't understand how complicated the testing is or how many health providers and labs there are.

Legal requirements are shaped by such "conveniences" all the time. Of course you wouldn't need a driver's license if you could argue with a police officer at a traffic stop that you are qualified to drive, had no DOIs etc. It's a lot easier though to require a driving test and a current license.

Same thing with the vaccination.

The obvious solution is to use something like the hybrid Ford F-150, which will only run the engine as-needed while still providing continuous 7.2kW power for battery charging or directly powering tools.
MySpace: The parent company (eUniverse) was a prolific spammer and blasted fake invites to people who had signed up for their dating sites.

Reddit: As mentioned elsewhere in this thread, they created tons of fake accounts to show a community.

TikTok: Ironically, they launched the platform by having employees spam other platforms with branded videos.
A sense of inadequacy, jealousy, arrogance and adrenaline are likely interrelated.

You don't feel jealous because someone else has something. You feel jealous because of what you lack.

Arrogance is often a cover up for self esteem issues. Adrenaline suggests a fear that you won't be able to rise to the occasion.

Not everyone will experience that to that degree when in charge. Though we do have the saying "It's lonely at the top" so I fully believe that part is very much the norm.
Java is way better than .net, which nobody at all uses outside MS. Certainly not in enterprise.
Using Yubikey with Pam Module
I spent three months in the Deschutes National Forest this summer, drought conditions throughout. I watched everyday as honeybees and yellow jackets happily shared a pan of water I'd leave out for them. The third guest was an interloper assassin wasp called the bald-faced hornet (Dolichovespula maculata), and it loved drowning honeybees. If this hornet was around, I'd return to a pan full of dead honeybees.

At first I asked myself, "Can honeybees really be such poor swimmers?" Then I noticed the hornet essentially pushing them into the water (shocking them? zapping them, disabiling them?) and later eating them.

I don't know if this hornet is an invasive species or if the predator-prey relationship is already known, but a single hornet can wipe out tens of bees a day. A contributor to honeybee collapse? Maybe.
They also support local stepfunctions.
I'm fortunate enough to live somewhere with no venomous or large spiders, so I never feel the need to kill them; they are quiet and eat much more annoying bugs, so at worst I'll move them outside if any end up inside my home, but I might also ignore them completely if they're not constructing a net or something.

If they were actually dangerous, I might react differently though.
What are we doing wrong? Everything and nothing at all.

There is no "we" since we are all different. Everyone does something wrong, but nobody does everything wrong — yet in aggregate, "we" do everything wrong :) But everyone does something right, too, so in aggregate, we do everything right (nothing wrong) too!

As long as people keep doing that, I think "we" should be good.
I general I do agree, but otoh I'm not sure if local appliances are the solution. I believe AWS' vision is that development happens against real cloud resources, which seems neat on paper but to that to really work provisioning resources needs to be super smooth to easily create developer sandboxes. CloudFormation definitely is not it.
The CIA used it to bribe tribal leaders in Afghanistan too.
Cute fact about __debug__: it is one of the only ways to get compile-time conditionals in Python. Performing a comparison with `if __debug__:` will output byte code for the ensuing statement if and only if the interpreter is in debug mode - notably, in `-O` mode, it will not even generate a load of __debug__ and a conditional jump, and acts as if the statement didn’t exist at all.

OP was concerned about bans where it is impractical to get electricity otherwise. I was providing another example that happens every day that would also be affected by this restriction on portable electricity generation, a landscaper at a client's job site.
With major releases gone, this isn't hard, and, overall cheaper and easier than upgrading less frequently. But it is some work, which is why the LTS service was added for the benefit of legacy applications. Note that under the old model, LTS didn't exist. There was a new feature release every six months that everyone had to upgrade to. The names of those releases didn't stand out as much (8u20, 8u40 for feature releases [1] as opposed to, say, 8u25, 8u45 for patches) as they do now when we did away with major releases and gave every new feature release a new integer number.

Because now the feature releases can add new APIs rather than just new JVM features as they did under the old model, this process can be slightly more work, but still significantly less work over time. As regularly maintained applications update code and dependencies regularly, anyway, this is a clear win. Not only is the upgrade process easier and cheaper, but you get to enjoy the regular and significant performance improvements that have always been part of the six-monthly feature releases, but aren't in the LTS patches.

[1]: Those feature releases under the old model also added major new features with significant changes to the VM. For example, the G1 GC and JFR were added in feature releases.

My wife died 7 months ago.

On day one I received dozens of bouquets of flowers and enough food to fill the fridge and freezer three times over.

On day fourteen all the flowers had died and the food gone bad. I received practically no phone calls or visitors in the months that followed.

If you want to support someone through grief just stay in contact with them regularly over an extended period of time.

I've never heard of Adoptium Eclipse Temurin before. It looks like all releases were just within the last few months, but this is the recommendation? Seems a bit strange.
That's going to be a tough sell for landscapers currently getting by with a 25 year old F150. If the state is forcing these costs onto working people like this, they should also subsidize the cost to get newer legal equipment. The state of california already offers funding for wealthy people to buy Teslas, they should do something for day laborers too.
Doesn’t BSD also do that better than Linux too?

Maybe this whole confusion stems from the Linux model dominating the FOSS space when other open source OS’s don’t conform to that approach.
Ask HN: Has your salary kept up with prices at restaurants?

Naming in tech is shit anyway. It's loaded with marketing mumbo jumbo.

NoSQL should mean: No-SQL, No SQL query language, and therefore no required implementations of the SQL standard (tables, relations, transactions etc).

A lot of "NoSQL" databases actually include an SQL layer.

Heck. CSV is NoSQL too.

The transaction model is one of the things which would be nice to be able to select (eventual-consistent, non-consistent, consistent). In case you have different performance requirements. Similar to UDP vs TCP.
But again, it has nothing to do with no-sql.

There was a term - object database. But it was old, so it couldn't be used. Then it was document store / database.

Caching and naming things are the most difficult parts. But instead of selecting a name that makes sense and reflects a system/architecture/we, we let some marketing people (read - advocates) promote a new, seo-clean, name.
Since Oracle took over we’ve had a release every few months. That’s terrible. It should be a few weeks, at most.
I don’t think raising productive functioning adults is mutually exclusive from leaving them an inheritance enabling them not to work to live. There is too much ideas that unless you get paid to do something it isn’t worthwhile.

I wish people could study the liberal arts or sciences freely to expand knowledge, not for the sake of money. This is a privilege only provided to those whose parents leave them a large inheritance.
I think most languages have a really difficult to configure environment if you mess it up or need to keep multiple versions around. Windows is especially bad about it because of the java_home variable. Mono is a mess to configure on Linux, or at least the last time I tried it to learn F#.

Java is actually nice in that a lot of distros are packaging a version manager for it. Arch and centos lead the pack in this. Although cent continues to be a mess about how many jdks and Jres are available.
I share your concern with the lack of repairability and fully admit I'd never buy a Tesla. However, I think this depends on your definition of what a "minor" accident is. Generally, accidents that surpass cosmetic damage and cause frame damage (even in ICE vehicles) warrant a near write off or a problem that compromises any chance of re-selling a vehicle. For instance, damage to suspension linkages / steering column or a minor bend in the frame or A pillar of a vehicle.

I think the biggest consideration here is the fire / electrical risk of a slightly damaged or questionably compromised battery pack (structural or otherwise). In time, insurance companies / providers will likely adjust their actuarial math to compensate for battery risks or more generally long term risks of post-accident Ev's. It'll be interesting to see how the buy back numbers look - a structural battery might actually leave more cells / components intact for re-sale / scrapping or recycling in comparison to ICE vehicles which are generally just priced for their scrap value by weight.

Again, I'll never buy a tesla - I'm driving my ICE VW GTI with a manual transmission into the ground.
Yes - .NET 5 and 6 both have runtimes and SDKs available for Mac and Linux. At least in my opinion, Linux is the preferred deployment platform for it now unless you have a specific (usually older) library that only works on Windows.
Now do .NET :)

No, seriously, we need the same thing for .NET

C# in mono has the csharp interactive prompt, and you can also use it to run script files (like .csx).

Java often uses IDE but there are tools to run a REPL.
Groovy had this before Java got it. You can use it to write Java, since Java code is Groovy. It comes with a GUI console into which you can type and evaluate too, or you can write script files and run them. It's not as fashionable nowadays as it used to be (now it's Kotlin, Scala, etc.) but it works great and can be useful for learning Java too.
Watching James Bond this weekend made me sad. No mention of China at all, as the cause of many geopolitical crisis around the world, as well as the source of atrocious acts against muslims (go check out cnn's china whistlerblower interview recently that detailed the hanging of uighurs and raping of them). If you want a super evil villain, look no further than Xi Jing ping and the CCP, who has threatened literally most democracies (nuke Australia/Japan, conquer Taiwan), sent pirate ships to plunder all sealives around the world, continue to build up coal power plants to increase global warming, and let's not forget COVID.

Also, let's not forget CCP is the reason why North Korea still exists and why Vietnam is still a communist country.
java itself ships no build and dependency management tools. So you get either the built-in stuff that IDEs offer or use maven, gradle, ant.
For toy programs you can also invoke javac directly but as it grows it quickly gets as impractical as compiling large C codebases by hand.
I am sorry for your loss.

I think a lot of the folks who have claimed musk is wrong on the science (ie, pro hydrogen, anti nuke etc folks) are surprisingly poorly informed.

They have nuclear designs which are 98% fusion. The radioactive fallout for these is much more limited.

For example, atomic lake (which was terraformed with nuclear bombs), has radiation levels of 9 µSv vs 3 from background per week

What's even weirder about the "pro-science" folks - they don't seem to understand radiation exposure ranges in space. Surface of mars is going to have radiation levels on the order of 20 uSv per HOUR - we are talking RADS/year (not mili rads).

That said, impactors or nuclear power on the surface are likely more feasible.
Yes. It's ported to every mainstream CPU architecture and OS.
