Licenses don't expire just because the site used to broker them goes away, unless they are worded that way. (E.g. if unity were to close their store, would you loose usage rights for assets bought there? Maybe, but the license wouldn't have to be that way)

Also, I don't remember ever seeing a limited edition in asset store, and tracking ownership changes of digital assets is annoying to say the least. NFT folks argue that tracking them on a blockchain works well, isn't reliant on the original creator "approving" the resale unless its setup that way and makes it publicly transparent that the claims about "only one" or "only X" are true.

If those differences have any value to you is of course a personal thing. For me personally, the "own a unique digital thing" isn't really something I care about, but I get how the logic works if you do. And selling purely digital artworks has been a problem for artists before, so apparently this "public scarcity" is something some buyers care for that wouldn't just pay to download something from the artists website for whatever reason. (And plenty people who think anything "limited" doesn't have extra value and are just as happy with a unlimited print than with a special limited edition - but clearly there is a large enough market that disagrees, since otherwise more expensive limited editions wouldn't be a thing)
I like Dang's comments on the idea that the presentation of the information is just as valuable as the information itself. Much like your round Earth example, sometimes stating the objective truth isn't enough to win over an audience. This isn't a flaw in HN so much as it is a flaw in the way people behave. We all operate with partial information and when new information conflicts with what we know (or sometimes what the collective authority seems to know) we reject it.

In general there are two options to this. You can fully commit to your views, and get 10 responses where opponents fully commit to theirs. Or, you can consider the general views of the community your in, and adjust your comments to challenge and question without provoking, usually getting a small number of considered replies in return. The latter tends to be the harder of the two and the less noticable. I think this is why larger discussions with more approachable topics seem to turn toxic faster.
I think this is a misevaluation of the trust involved. NFT's are using the blockchain to whitewash trust, the blockchain contains a smart contract and a URL. It provides no assurance that the URL contains the same contents as when the NFT was first minted.

With how most NFTs are implemented you need to have trust in the blockchain it self, in the implementation of the smart contract, in the server hosting the referenced metadata URL, and the server hosting the actual digital asset the NFT represents. If trust in any one of these is misplaced it can undermine the trust placed in the others.

The blockchain can not provide more trust than the least trustworthy part of the rest of the NFT chain. Since the URL referenced in the blockchain is likely stored in some single organization's SQL database, the maximum trustworthiness of an NFT is never going to be larger than the trustworthiness of that SQL database.
I have a similar experience, though I learnt my civility faster and was never banned from HN.

To leave Twitter is a question of seconds. To leave Twitter toxicity behind and start arguing in good faith instead of coming up with the smuggest takedown and expecting likes ... well, that takes much longer.

We are beginning to see that all these years we thought it was our constitutional right to free speech that was the major thing. Yes, it would be and will be if the government takes a turn for the worst, but really what we're seeing in the US is an erosion in the ethos of free speech, an attitude that in our society you are welcome to say something that I heartily disagree with.
I wonder how they managed to achieve perfect synchronization across the whole district, or even between IPTV players in one school. Sure, maybe that ability is built into the IPTV system, but I wonder how it's done. Did the players all sync their clocks from a central server, pre-buffer the stream, then start playing when the local clock hit a certain time?

The cpu in the article is real hardware and pin compatible with the 6502, and they use it by putting it into 6502 sockets on old hardware, so no need to emulate the SID chip or anything else--there would be a real one available.

It would be quite easy to modify the design to full 6510, which just has a few more pins dedicated to IO. The biggest issue is properly emulating the bank switching, which they have done for other hardware, but the 6510 has a more complicated scheme.

Because you're using a lot more characters than you need.

echo -e "I'm \e[34mblue\e[m."

However, `tput` is definitely the more 'correct' approach. What actual benefit it affords you over the hardcoded escapes is left to edge-cases and very, very old or otherwise niche terminal emulators.

By the way, the `3x` means foreground, the `4x` means background. `x` is a number between 0 and 7 (inclusive) that indicates the color. `x=8` means "extended"/non-standard and generally takes a few more control codes afterward, and `x=9` means "reset".

If you know binary, you can remember the 0-7 colors. It's a 3-bit code corresponding to BGR (where B is the MSB).

BGR
000 = 0 = black
001 = 1 = red
010 = 2 = green
011 = 3 = yellow
100 = 4 = blue
101 = 5 = magenta
110 = 6 = cyan
111 = 7 = white

You can also add 60 to the code to make it "bright", e.g. red foreground (31) can be made bright red by adding 31+60=91. Same can be applied to backgrounds (4x+60=10x).

The bright codes are less supported though admittedly I've never seen a modern emulator that doesn't. It also gives you bright colors on old Windows cmd.exe prompts without needing the bold mode (1).
I guess people sometimes say “domesticate” when they mean “tame”.
People are taught to use turn signals, and are reminded "keep right except to pass" every 2 miles. Unless there are a lot of blatantly illiterate people driving around, they just don't care about the conventions of the road, and I doubt education is going to change that.

New Shepard uses hydrogen + oxygen which could be produced without CO2 emissions.

It's relatively straightforward to synthesize methane (Starship fuel) from a stream of carbon monoxide and hydrogen.

In the past people got the carbon monoxide from pyrolysis of coal

https://netl.doe.gov/research/Coal/energy-systems/gasificati...

but today people are doing it with carbon dioxide extracted from the air or from another combustion process.

You could make RP1, Jet Fuels, and other hydrocarbons this way too

https://www.netl.doe.gov/research/coal/energy-systems/gasifi...

but the chemistry is tricky because the reactions that break chains down to methane or build them up to polyethylene will run quickly except when conditions are balanced on a knife edge... One where the reaction rates aren't too high and amount of product you get for the size of the machine is not good.

> The west coast where SV is based is full of LGBT+ people.

To be clear LGBT+ != !straight-white-male (the set !straight-white-male includes but is not equal to LGBT+). I've seen really problematic racism on hackernews. Problematic not because it's extreme (slurs, lynchings, etc) but because it's "logical" in a way that disenfranchises black people (for example).

An example (and I don't keep tabs of this, so I don't have a link, but it was in the past month or so) was of someone saying, with respect to a racially sensitive topic "As a black man I think... about this topic." and the replies were overwhelmingly "That you feel the need to qualify with 'As a black man' proves that you are racist. I, on the other hand, do not consider race, ergo I am not racist".

These are well-suited-to-hackernews arguments that invalidate the perspective of anyone outside of the accepted majority and thus perpetuate racism.

I think this is the last I'm going to say on the matter. I'm not trying to argue with you, and I have no evidence that you have done anything like what I'm talking about here. I just think that it's important not to ignore what other people might perceive, especially those with different contexts & experiences, who might perceive things that you do not.

It may be difficult to crunch convincing numbers when concepts are fuzzy and aggregative and time related, but this is one "value key" of those which seemed to swing more wildly in "these long tiring months".

Three British studies, near in time, put to "chance of long covid after infection" the values of 2.3%, 13% and 40%, another article (mentioned in these pages) indicated 25% (as the component with cognitive symptoms 8 months after infection).

The linked divulgative commentary considers the data from 250'000 unvaccinated adults (~80% hospitalized) diagnosed with covid19 from Dec 2019 to Mar 2021. The "length of symptoms", I understand, should be of six months or longer (though some phrasing is not really clear, e.g. «manifestations ... rates remained largely constant from one month through six or more months after their initial illness»). It is more interesting than others as it disaggregates the symptoms:

> General well-being (~50%): More than half of all patients reported weight loss, fatigue, fever or pain.

> Mobility (~20%): Roughly one in five survivors experienced a decrease in mobility.

> Neurologic concerns (~25%): Nearly one in four survivors experienced difficulty concentrating.

> Mental health disorders (~33%): Nearly one in three patients were diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorders.

> Lung abnormalities (imaging: ~60% ; breathing: ~25%): Six in ten survivors had chest imaging abnormality and more than a quarter of patients had difficulty breathing.

> Cardiovascular issues: Chest pain and palpitations were among the commonly reported conditions.

> Skin conditions (~20%): Nearly one in five patients experienced hair loss or rashes.

> Digestive issues: Stomach pain, lack of appetite, diarrhea and vomiting were among the commonly reported conditions.

What I like:

1. The applications start really quickly, compared to Clojure.

2. It feels like I could learn everything about the language if I ever want to dive into the internals. With Clojure/Babashka I don't think that would be possible for me.

3. A bit vague, but it really feels nice to program in this language. I can easily get things to work, I can mess around in a REPL if I want to, and #4:

4. The community is great. Instead of searching on the internet, when I don't know how to do something, I ask a question on gitter / matrix and before long there's an answer from a more experienced person (sometimes even from the creator of the language).

5. The package manager (JPM) is really easy to use.

6. In terms of download size, Janet it tiny. But compared to Lua, it's way more "batteries included" due to the great standard library.

What could be better:

1. Tooling I guess, but that's logical for younger languages. I use Olical his "Conjure" Neovim plugin, which is great. I don't think it's possible to jump to the definition of a function name if my cursor is on it. Maybe that's normally done through LSP in Conjure, I'm not sure. I don't know if there are plans to add LSP support to Janet?

2. I just found out a couple of days ago that Janet has no `set` datastructure. You can work around this by using a hashmap where each key maps to a value of true, or you can use a library that adds the datastructure.

3. Not sure if this would have downsides in Janet, but something I really like about Clojure is that you can use a lot of standard library functions on all data types. In Janet sometimes you have to look up a function specific to a data type, where Clojure would be more agnostic - with functions that work on different datatypes in an expected way, and return a `sequence`.

4. Some library authors have the tendency to use "The Good Place" references in their library names. I know the name "Janet" is a reference to that series, and I know developers in all languages are always trying to be funny. But finding a library called "html" (by swlkr) is way more helpful than finding one named after some character from a series.

What I think I will like, but haven't tried yet:

1. Object Oriented Programming in Janet seems nice (https://janet-lang.org/docs/object_oriented.html).

2. PEG (Parsing Expression Grammars - https://janet-lang.org/docs/peg.html )

This is giving me flashbacks to Catholic school :)

'Christ is perfect, his earthly church is not. Because the church consists of fallible human clergy and laity it is vulnerable to corruption, ambition, lust, and politics, oh the politics'

It's interesting to know that secular students get the same arguments just in defense of scientism instead of Christianity. All apologists sound alike.

However, by no means is this different from the store branded products you find at Safeway or Walgreens. They do the exact same thing. The vendors pay for shelf space, share their profits, only for the supermarkets to copy the product and sell it as store branded ones.

A comment like this pops up every time this happens with Amazon, and it's not even remotely the same thing at all.

Amazon only "resells" a limited subset of products. Most of the products on Amazon are sold on consignment or by third party sellers with fulfillment by Amazon.

Stores buy all of their products from their suppliers, both the name brand products and the store brand products and "resell" those products to end customers. In fact, the same company (or companies) supplies both the name brand and store brand products. Store brand products are just white label variants of the name brand. The supplier deliberately offers it as part of a market segmentation strategy, with the goal of making the name brand appear (more) premium.

Suppliers also do not pay for shelf space for most products in grocery stores. Paying for shelf space is an optional marketing strategy; suppliers can choose to pay for premium placement, and if they do not the store will simply place the most profitable items in the premium locations.

Suppliers also don't share their profits, and I don't know where you got that idea from. Suppliers sell to grocery stores at wholesale prices. And the grocery stores than "resell" those items at a markup to end customers.

Finally, grocery stores very rarely sell items on consignment, because most suppliers won't put up with that shit. Only low volume or new/trial products with no sales history get sold on consignment, because the store can't and won't purchase perishable inventory without knowing how (or when) it will sell.
Ok, cool, that's their design choice, but that doesn't sound fun. If that' the kind of environment they want to foster, that's fine, but that seems terribly off-putting. I'm not really going to enjoy a game where my opponents are encouraged to taunt me when I lose. That just doesn't sound very fun.
What I want to know is if it predicts bicycle accident hotspots -- especially angled intersections where at ordinary speeds for both vehicles, the angles are such that a cyclist can stay hidden from the drivers' view behind their right "A" pillar until the last second when it is too late. Accidents there are just a matter of odds, as whenever the timing is right, even good drivers will likely not see the cyclist until too late.

No, it wouldn't be OK by international governing standards. Ethical Rules are very strict and explicit prisoner "consent" is one of these areas. The other thing is that the donor numbers china is presenting to the medical community don't make statistically much sense except if you have a huge population of non-consenting prisoners. Which is also the reason why china is banned from many international donor programs.
People are different. I think we could all be better off if we acknowledged that and acted upon it. I've read about this before as "deadline driven" people and "value driven" people.

I mean, when I was using cvs because cvs was the only thing I could use I don't think I was trying to use it like git and I was still pretty happy when better things came along. Subversion and perforce in particular improved merging massively long before git came onto the scene.

CVS was fine for small projects with a couple devs at most. Anything more than that and you needed someone on your project with far more domain knowledge in cvs than git requires now to avoid losing all your data in a botched operation on the thousands of independent rcs files a repo consisted of, so I really can't agree about avoiding massive wads of incidental complexity.

Git is, if anything, far simpler than cvs in just about every way imo. I could see myself using subversion for a lark, but I'm very happy if I never have to touch cvs again.
I just read an article recently about how 6502-based chips are used inside of satellite receiver boxes.
