> Because the executives at Southwest can't just make that accusation without enormous evidence that it's true.

Of course they can. Executives and unions make accusations of illegal labor relations conduct on the other side on flimsy evidence all the time. And especially when it is nonspecific as to individuals (e.g., alleging a sick-out is occurring without alleging any particular employees sick leave was abused), it is safer, legally, than many of the accusations routinely made between labor and management.

(There might be good political and labor relations reasons for declining to characterize it that way with, or even with, strong evidence that it is true, but that's a different issue than legal reasons.)

> You do not want that claim to be false

Honestly, false or true, it would be suicide for a union President to say it, unless it was part of an internal factional fight in the Union and the faction doing it was already irrevocably opposed to the union president. And even then, its basically admitting that that faction has the power to bring the firm to its knees and you can't constrain them...

Obviously the grid needs to have a fleet of base load plants large enough that some can be periodically taken offline for maintenance. This is understood by everyone familiar with the issue and we shouldn't have to keep repeating it. Maintenance schedules also apply to every other type of power plant capable of handling base load.
You can if you have decent insulation (which at least cold climates do). In fact people historically have taken advantage of cheaper night time electricity prices to shift heating to night time. Better insulation will become a more attractive investment than in the past.
Time component can’t be disregarded, though. You can build, operate and decommission a wind farm or a solar plant in the time it takes to sell the first watt from a nuclear plant.
Berenson rightly called the vaccine efficiency drop with actual data and was castigated for it. These outlets are more fixated on character assasination rather than hash out his arguments because that's so cool nowadays.
Yes I understand this but he does not. Government can step in and dictate how much an education should be paid for at a fair market price. Yes there will always be private schools that will go all out but the point of this whole thing is to provide an avenue for anyone to be able to better themselves through hard work. Public tuition free schooling is what modern economies should all strive to have (and all but one really already have it)
Nuclear Enrichment is kind of hard actually. Nobody's going to get away with it without others knowing.

The risk if Nuclear Energy proliferation is the waste being used in a dirty bomb.

Nuclear waste spread out in Manhtatten might not kill people, but it could make the city, or parts of it unlivable for a long time. At minimum a big disaster.

So in order for the Nuclear future to work, we'd need to set standards that have teeth.

The issue is not Canada or Germany, it's Venezuela or Colombia where there is corruption, political instability, lack of oversight, and then a local antagonist can sneak in and grab materials. Cover ups, finger pointing, refusing to allow inspectors in lest they assess the level of corruption, it all falls down while the baddies take their stolen gear to other, more ideological bad actors.

There are long term storage issues but I think those can be worked out.

Nuclear Energy is basically free Energy to any group of people civil enough to manage it.

You are letting a clumsy chyron that did a bad job summarizing an accurate report sour all of journalism for you?
Do you think the same way with movies? Many movies could probably survive on ad placement revenue alone. Why do you pay to go to the movies? Do you think the same way with buying a laptop? I'm sure you could fund a laptop with ad and bloatware placement, so why do you pay bill gates for a surface book?

If nobody paid to go to the movies, then nobody would want to advertise in those movies, those movies would lose their sponsorships, and stop being made. If everybody unsubbed from netflix right now they would stop funding original content, even though the content they make has ad placements. Why even ask netflix for money if you can just make a wildly successful tv show with ad placements and release it for free?

Why should you pay to go to a football game? Why should you pay to watch a football game? All the players have sponsors. They're all millionaires. Why did our parents pay for cable? Cable had ads, all the actors were millionaires, the cable company owners were millionaires, the production studios were millionaires. You're saying practically everyone who bought cable in the 1990s-2000s was bad with their money because the actors were millionaires and had ad sponsrships? Give me a break.

I just think it's incredibly disingenuous that because someone is leveraging a SLIGHTLY different monetization model that allows for free consumption, that anyone who pays for it is bad with their money. Maybe if you condemned ALL luxury spending with the same energy I could see you're at least being consistent. But this is just more irrational disdain for the new wave of media consumption.

Well you did say: "this may be the nerd's way of immortalizing their sweetheart", which seems to me to strongly imply that your impression may be closer to assuming it than to not assuming it.

I have no horse in this race (I'm not the one who replied to your original comment), but it did seem like you were assuming something awful close to what you are denying.
Didn't realize I can't comment on someone addressing a 3rd-party (is it 3rd-party?) in a condescending way as a less optimal way of getting that 3rd-party onboard with your ideas.

>>and if I had been less reckless

Yes, you see kids behaving recklessly. You don't see the less reckless kids behaving that way. It is really not a surprise, right? Some kids, I'm sure, don't skateboard or bike because on one hand there is a social pressure to not wear a helmet but on the other hand they don't want to get their skull cracked.

'Perception of danger' was probably my primary criteria as a child for selecting activities. Why do you think children don't think about this? Do you remember being a child?
No, gas is not more economical everywhere. It is in places which have gas, but most of Europe doesn’t have it — it has coal, though. For most of Europe, betting on gas means putting themselves under Kremlin control for its basic needs.

Your definition of fragile is different than mine. It's clearly antifragile as it has survived and thrived for billions of years.
The factions within the, as you put it, Overton window, share some interests and oppose each other on some other goals. All of the uncertainty in policy lies in wondering whether corporations, politicians or upper level civil servants will get their way in each conflict, sometimes none of them getting their way due to gridlock. Nobody is in control, but some people are in more control than others. As you put it, groups outside the "Overton window" are all dissatisfied - but the really revealing thing is that they make up almost all of the US population.
Well I'm not a physicist, so take everything I say with a grain of (molten) salt, but it has to do with the kind of fuel used, which produces different waste products.

The half life of most of the waste product from a gen-3 uranium reactor is measured in millions of years (235U's half life is ~700 million years, for example).

In some gen-4 molten salt reactor designs, most of the waste product would have a half life measured in hours, so they wouldn't need to be put into long-term containment at all. And the rest of the waste products would only require a few hundred years before they are emitting only background level radiation.

Hopefully someone with actual education on this can give a more complete answer, but that's my Reader's Digest understanding.
Any idea how to set my YubiKey up to handle this?
> If the US confiscated all of the wealth of the billionaires in the US (which would absolutely wreck the economy as well as that wealth, since much of that their wealth is tied up in stocks)...it would fund less than a year of government spending and not even be able to pay for the $3.5T package that is currently being debated (maybe close...the most recent estimate wealth for US billionares is between $3T and $3.5T).

That is so deceptive. You are assuming that everyone else won't be paying their taxes. Everything would be paid for but we could use the "confiscated" wealth for additional stuff. Not that I am necessarily for or against wealth redistribution.

Nobody is saying the wealth should be used to fund the government. The american taxpayers do that. The additional money could be used for other stuff.

I mean... which specific LAX -> SJC flight did you have in mind?

Flight 3027[1] does LAX -> SJC, but first it does TPA (Tampa) -> STL (St Louis), and STL -> LAX.

There may be some back and forth flights, but if that plane goes back to LAX right away, it's probably flight 2497 [2], which goes to BWI (Baltimore) after LAX.

If that plane can't leave Florida in the morning, there goes your noon flight to SJC, and your early afternoon flight to LAX. Plus, the plane may not have made it to Baltimore and the schedule is messed up the next day too.

People have a tendency to view advertising as ineffective on them. "I never click ads." Mostly this is true. Most ads people see don't make them do anything. People see a lot of ads though.

Meanwhile, it's a marketing cliche that "half the budget is wasted, but we don't know which." It's also true that google or FB provided analytics, using default settings often grossly overestimate ad effectiveness. All true. A journalist somewhere is writing a version of this article at any given time.

But... From the merchant's perspective, the existence-proofs for advertising's effectiveness are undeniable. Launch a site. No visitors. Advertise. Now there are visitors. People subscribed to something or bought something. The ROI may or may not work, but the principle isn't in question.

For a blank slate, newly launched business performance marketing is easy to measure precisely and you can have a reliable ROI. For BMW, GoPro or geico insurance... the world is more complex, ROIs are more theoretical and "half the budget is wasted, give or take 50%" applies.

The same was true for TV. A mattress store run ads with a crazy guy screaming "Sale!" and the next day a lot of mattresses get sold. The fact that ads made people come buy mattresses is trivially true, from the merchant's POV.
The clip [1] was kind of gross. Shatner is standing there, trying to make a thoughtful, serious, genuine statement about his feelings, and Bezos is repeatedly turning his head away, looking at everything else, like a kid distracted by an iPad.

Finally, after all the horseplay was done, he turned back and gave the guy a chance to articulate.

Whereas if we did not vote for Democrats, we'd have many policies that make things even worse. Remember, Republicans have agency too, and they use it to make everything much, much worse. Voting for Democrats, even if it's just to block Republican virulence, is therefore an undeniable positive act.
Oh gosh, I am pretty bad at this. The only thing that seems to help is being on keto, in which case my recall is amazing.

"Germany trying to find a nuclear waste deposit since ages"

That's politics.

"Failed nuclear plants"

That's not quite true and doesn't have to happen.

"Nuclear fuel expected to be depleted in the next 100 years"

This is just plain wrong. Maybe 1000 years even then, we are extracting a tiny fraction of the energy. As we get better, all that 'waste' is actually 'fuel'.

Far from a bad example, France is a good example.

If France were to have built 2x the capacity instead of stopping where they did, they might have already been Carbon Neutral.
> As I said, if you were right, google would be banning pro-climate change propaganda. Not anti-climate change propaganda.

You can't draw conclusions about the world especially conclusions that are trivially directly contradicted by directly examining reality by hypothesizing about how players motivations would be effected by a counterfactual.

This isn't a useful strategy for examining the world. Instead I suggest you attend directly to what scientists have been saying for decades about what is actually going on with our planet.

> Then stop using the internet. Stop consuming. Be the change you want to see in the world.

90% of the change that is needed is by commercial players. I could live in a yurt and eat nuts and berries and no notable effect would be achieved. Me using the internet has less than no effect.

> Your comments are so out of touch with reality it's hard to take you seriously.

Consider self reflection on this matter and once again attending to the science.
It's a pathetic joke. The US has very little real financial secrecy. The Feds have trivial access to all financial transactions inside of the US if they have cause to need to look. Beyond that, the majority of US wealth is contained in the stock market and land, both of which tend to reveal the wealthy due to public records (which is how we know how much land Bill Gates has been accumulating and how many shares of Tesla Elon Musk owns). The US has a small number of unknown super wealthy because of that, whereas China and Russia are extraordinarily opaque by comparison. The US also requires its politicians to report their wealth within a range. Now try to get that kind of information from Putin or Xi.
The first quote is philosophy. The second quote is fact.

Welcome to the world. Everyone applies their moral model to the world. If you claim you don't, then you are applying your moral model of "members of society have no obligation to help those who are inherently damaged by society" to the world.
You could let a program create an API for manipulating a new type of data and inform the system about it so that other programs could use it. This is more or less what AmigaOS did; you installed a datatype for e.g. a PSD file, then all your programs that worked with images could read PSD files. I think it's a nice idea.

I think it will likely take significant modification to fit a mech keeb in the laptop as is. [I asked about the stock keyboard dimensions and was told the module is 3.8mm thick](https://community.frame.work/t/the-keyboard/155/5) which doesn't leave enough room for low profile mechanical keyboard switches that are all ~8mm thick without accounting for caps.

That said, I'm right there with you hoping to see some cool mech keeb work around these laptops!
> We become better prepared to switch but the switch itself becomes harder.

But that’s the trick, for instance, now that solar is under the cost of gas, improvements in solar have slowed down, but now everyone is trying to make batteries.

It’s very unlikely that the pattern won’t repeat itself, in 2050 (or 2070), we will probably be in a better position to do the switch, even if total energy consumption has grown.
not again. I can’t go through 641st “nuclear vs solar/wind” thread on HN about :)

We gotta give Mailgun some empathy here. It's tough to run an email service and keep reputation of it. If some bad actor got in, they can send large spam email and dilute the reputation.

Of course, this is just a mistake and after explaining Mailgun shouldn't charge $1358 for clean service. But as a customer, you should take some responsibility when doing something wrong as well. For example, if the account is old, and this is the first time this happen, and once we explain the mistake, Mailgun should waive that fee.

On AWS SES if the bounce rate >10%, your account is temporarily suspended.

If the exact samething happen with any mail provider, where a large of emails volume are bounced. They would need to pause/restrict your account in some way.

I would suggest look into AWS SES and started to write code to handle bounce email yourself to get a sense of it.

People who've had the disease have no reason to get vaccinated, denying that is simply denying data&science.

In any case, the pandemic won't end when everyone's vaccinated, but instead when everyone stops being afraid of it; the virus cannot be stopped (at least not with the current version of the vaccines) so the only change possible is the society's reaction to it.
To add to above:

Virtualization & Containerization security depends a great deal on the security of the underlying platform.

Hyper-V can be used on endpoints [1], similar to VMware Workstation.

It can also be installed as a role on top of Windows Server [2], and, used as bootable OS of its own[3] (likely deprecated in the future, so no hyper-v server past server 2019).

Related to this is the type of Windows server install, as it touches on attack surface also [4], but I believe there are constraints for the very small installs.

This matters because attack surface is likely to be, from smallest to largest: hyper-v server < Windows Server < Windows Endpoint

That's a long-ish article that I don't have time to read this instant, but it doesn't seem to address the specific points I brought up, so I don't know how relevant it is. I'm still interested to know why you think their argument is stronger.

EDIT: Okay, now that I've had time to understand TechDirt's position a little better, I don't believe the author is being "dishonest" anymore. He's only saying that Facebook wants to repeal the CDA because, in his mind, repealing it and reforming it are equivalent. You have to admit it's somewhat confusing for them to repeatedly say that Facebook wants to "destroy" Section 230 when what they actually want to do is add to it. Regardless of whether or not you agree with TechDirt's view, it gives the impression that they don't know what they're talking about or are misrepresenting the issue.
