So the real danger from cells that have been deep discharged is dendritic growth as we both know.

Yes dendrites could develop later on. But the process of dendritic growth is quite slow and gradual.

Because of that, before the cells start getting too hot and threaten thermal runaway, what will happen is that the pack will run out of balance faster than the 40mA my BMS can balance. And shortly after my BMS will trip protection and I will be safe. This is actually why BMSs have a lower balance voltage - 1mA is of course not enough but they tend not to exceed 50mA so they will catch damaged cells very early removing all the risk.

As for deep discharge, you might enjoy this paper : https://www.nature.com/articles/srep30248 which also includes a short literature review.

The TL;DR is that damage is relatively limited during deep discharge even to 0v. There is plausibly possible capacity degradation but it not very different from accelerated wear and tear, though the authors did not detect any.

What is really dangerous though is discharging a battery pack to 0v - when that happens it's easy for some cells to gain a negative state of charge, which is when the nasty stuff that actually causes fires and damage happen.

Copper dissolution according to this paper in more modern batteries does not even really happen until -12% state of charge. Indeed in modern higher capacity batteries they found no detectable damage at all until -12% soc.

Because of that, I am very confident from my setup - the risk of internal short circuit is incredibly low given that I know that the cells were always in balance, and any slow-forming internal short circuit will trip the protection much before there is any fire risk.

It's very interestinf though from reading the paper that the deep discharge risks essentially disappeared at 0v from pure coincidence as capacities increased though, I'd have expected somewhat the reverse :)
Eaton 5P 1U Lithium Ion Rack Battery Unit Review
I do not think that there is necessarily a conflict - you could really, really want this animal killed in this specific way for religious reasons and still not want the animal to suffer. You might believe that animals can not suffer, you might believe that god makes the animal not suffer in this case, or whatever. So I think one should be careful to not mix up really, really wanting to kill an animal in a certain way and really, really wanting the animal to suffer. But I will happily accept that there are at least some people facing a conflict.

With regard to your more general point that those desire are not exceptionally strong and involve conflicts - sure, notwithstanding me arguing against this in this specific case, I will grant you that, this is certainly possible. But I am not sure that you could make this point in the general case, I do not see why there could not be strong religiously motivated desires without conflicts.

Finally and notwithstanding the points above, I still think we are focusing to much on the really, really aspect. I do not think that the focus of the original comment was on the strength of the desire but on the lack of rational justification.

Completely agree. I wish I could forget everything about Obra Dinn so I can go back and play it again for the first time. I also recommend going into it blind, so that early on when the nature of what your character is dealing with is revealed, you won't have any idea it was coming.

Lucas Pope and Concerned Ape are supremely talented (they even compose the music for their games!). I'll buy anything they release at this point, sight unseen.
They call it "Travel Mode" (https://support.1password.com/travel-mode/).

It's good to know it exists.

The sad thing is, however, that even just knowing a name/identity is enough for motivated entities to "pull the thread" and go fishing on the internet for whatever they want.
My initial guess would be that the algorithm wants to boost engagement and people are more likely to engage with posts that make them angry. So if Tweeters tend to lean left, they would be more angry with (and therefore, engaged with) tweets from the right.
Git doesn't need a more complex interface. It needs a more simple interface. Magit is a complete failure in this respect. The author seems to think it is easier to remember "Ctrl-x g" than "git status". Instead we need more tools like Legit: https://frostming.github.io/legit/
Are they getting away without paying even more billions due to this scheme? This all seems like a great way to whip up a torch & pitchfork wielding mob, even if this is just some legit accounting exercise.

Yeah, they better connect the "feel" parts to something, otherwise insanity/suicide/murder might ensue.
It's important to note that she defrauded investors long after it became clear that the "bells and whistles" she was selling were just smoke and mirrors.

Theranos isn't a typical case of founder hype like you describe. It was a con job through and through.

Don't harbour sympathy for Holmes. She's made it harder for good-faith actors to get access to funding.

I would say I’m pretty normal and I frequent Twitter since it has a lot of content and instant news and instant discussions surrounding such news.

What is the metric for normal? Are we normal ? What’s the ratio between the general population and those who program? And to go even deeper, those who care about Programming, Cyber security, and tech news to frequent Hacker News in the first place? I would say Twitter population, lurkers and all , are a more accurate representation of the general population than HN is. You guys aren’t just quantifying the content not being shared by lurkers.
> Second, of course, don't keep evidence of crimes on your phone.

Also, if you have accomplices in your crimes make sure they don't keep evidence of your involvement on their phones.

The Fifth Amendment covers self-incrimination. It doesn't cover incrimination against others.

A prosecutor can grant one of your accomplices immunity to prosecution based on any evidence found on their phone about their crimes, and then it is fine under the Fifth Amendment to force them to unlock their phone and then use any evidence of your crimes found on their phone against you.

I'd argue that Tim Draper / DFJ going in early for $500k, and not following on, is a really strong signal.
I think there is a switch and that is called incentives. We can see these tactics working at least on Japan. If China government starts providing huge incentives, tax breaks I think couple will think about multiple children. The only problem of China is they can't rely on migrants like west because they may still want cheap labors for manufacturing. And Japan has separate culture problems with migrants.

Possibly true in court at least, but I think the end user should have the option to make this decision. Maybe give them a disclaimer that says In bold red text .. "Depending on your jurisdiction you may have legal problems using this feature! Research this and consult an attorney before enabling. You have been warned". In the US this would only apply in courts. AFAIK this would not be the case when interacting with the executive branch such as law enforcement but I am no lawyer.

If courts want this data, they can issue a subpoena and follow due process. Law enforcement can pound sand all day long if they are trying to circumvent due process.

Using this feature with armed phone thieves would not be a legal risk unless you are filming them in their home. Even then I would be happy to accept any legal risk when interacting with outlaws.

I'm not saying it's bad, I've used birch plywood myself and I like it.

But you can't compare the 13 layer plywood made from peeled wood with the stuff made from 3 layers of sawed wood. They are completely different types of product, and the cost is also very different.

Apart from mechanical properties, the 3 layer stuff is also much nicer optically usually (eg. they use camera sorted boards to achieve nice and even patterns). That's why it is more expensive.
Sure but so what. It is a question of how sustainable. Cutting 2x4s from pine trees still use a lot of non-sustainable energy sources. Saws burn gas and so do the trucks of the people who cut them down, so do the trucks that hall the logs, so do the mills that cut them, and so on and so on.

There are always more externalities we don't consider. To me, the question is whether bamboo worse than other composite wood products. Does it store more carbon? Does it store the same carbon but more quickly? Can it grow using less land? Does it last longer than what would be used instead? If it is at least neutral on all the other questions, does it have other properties that make it preferable?
They'd say you didn't take reasonable care.
Wait until you read up on Toxicologic Assessment of Jet Fuel which covers mostly JP-8, the military stuff, but it is also used in trucks, because they can! Or Toxicologic Profile of Jet Fuel which also covers the civil stuff, Jet A.

This is an excellent meta-link that demonstrates how the art world works: a bunch of rich people and their friends get together, they buy and sell between each other, a couple of the rich guys put the pieces in their “foundations,” “museums,” etc, a couple other rich guys who bought the art get the publishing houses they control to publish “retrospectives,” the major auction houses buy and sell between these people... and then you’re done! You’ve created a “cultural icon.”
> If taxes are too easy then people won't think about them, and will simply enjoy the services the government provides with them, which is tyranny.

Nope. More like we don’t want the gov to have their hands directly into our pocketbooks. The left are the ones that want more taxes and this auto income tax feature. The right wants less taxes. Understand people want different things and quit trying to force people your way. A great many people do not want the gov in their personal business.
Semiconductor manufacturing R&D and pathfining includes many expensive dead ends. Massive volume is required to justify the gigantic upfront cost to develop a new process every 2-4 years (overlapping with previous and next process node).

Economist would say that volume gives you:

1) Increasing marginal returns after massive fixed capital investments.

2) increasing returns to scale from variable investments when volumes increase.
That's the first place I went for a link to your repo. The way you have that page laid out, it looks like you are providing links to the upstream packages you used while developing scaffold.ly, for example Gitbook and Terraform.

I've never seen the upside. I use Emacs as my primary editor, and I regret it every time I say "today is the day I start using Magit". It is exceedingly invasive, triggering itself even when you don't ask for it (like running "git rebase -i" on the command line). The invasive stuff changes how the text editing itself works, but doesn't add deep features. In the interactive rebase case, I lose the ability to treat the interactive rebase text as text, but I also don't gain anything. I can't just navigate around, kill a line, and put it somewhere else. Well, I can do that, but the usual keybindings don't work, they just made their own for no reason. And, for example, if I do use their UI and pick "reword" as the operation for a certain commit, I should be prompted for the desired rewording then and there, right? But that's not what happens, I press C-c C-c to commit my changes (why isn't it C-x # which is how I'd normally close an emacsclient session?), then Emacs goes away, then it comes back up, then I can type my rewording. If you pick it more than a few times, you just get a seizure from all the flashing lights. This isn't a good user interface. It's a bad user interface.

Obviously, my experience must be unique, because everyone loves Magit. It might be the most-loved piece of software ever. Every other week, there is an article on Hacker News about how it's the best piece of software ever to exist, and I've never seen anyone say anything bad about it. So I wonder what marketing techniques they use to make people feel this way; the emotions are strong, and widely shared.

Maybe there is some fundamental insecurity about Git, and Magit makes people comfortable? I've never felt that way, but I did start using Git the weekend it came out, and my Github user ID is in the low 2000s, so I might have had time to get Stockholm Syndrome with the Git UI. I suppose it's possible that the people writing these articles may not have even been born when Git came out, which is interesting to think about actually!

This is untrue, tweets are also index into Google (just not as rapidly) and tweets often resurface via images. Many Twitter moments are reminiscent by users via retweets or screenshot posts.

Authors often retweet their own post and even pin them to increase their longevity, giving a tweet a much longer shell life for engagement than a hyperlink.

That’s not to mentioned when the tweet is shared on other platforms like HN and more noticeably Reddit.
This seems to be the most plausible explanation. I can remember Steve Ballmer, an undeniably intelligent and capable professional, laughing away the idea of the iPhone doing even single digit percentage market share.

Learn from Errors: Overlapping Instances
Ideally, the value that Elon Musk has captured would instead go to an institution that we collectively control, like NASA, and we would accomplish the same things but in a more accountable way. Is it really right and fair that society is ploughing money into Mars colonization, without any of us having been consulted, just because some nerd got "disruptive" with banking regulations?

In any case, Elon Musk is a pretty bad example because most billionaires do not orient their investment activities around some forward-thinking idealistic goal like Elon has. For every Elon, there's a hundred very boring billionaires who are perfectly content with swinging their wealth around in ways that just make society worse, like lobbying politicians and buying up chunks of economically valuable real estate in cities.

Money is power, and power begets more power. People shouldn't be able to circumvent democracy no matter how cleverly they've played the economy game.
Why don’t we blame the intuit employees while we’re at it? If they had no employees then they wouldn’t be in business? So does this mean it’s actually the citizens fault?
I have a vivid memory about the first time I found out about Theranos and Holmes. It was in the business school setting, and the point the professor was making was about how cool it is that a young woman is disturbing an old industry. Not the science, not the business, but the age and gender of the protagonist.

It struck me as a bit weird intellectually - DEI is important but let's first establish that the thing being done is great, and then second take a look at who's doing it. It seemed like this short circuited in the speaker's mind because it was such a cool narrative. I wonder if that happened more broadly - it's a story that you easily wish were true!
This is one of the things that makes Emacs one of the coolest pieces of software to me. 98% of the operations it can do, are defined in functions, which you can search for easily in the M-x pane with something like Helm, and boom. Even navigation. It's a near fully self-documenting editor that I rarely need to look up help on. Never forget how to activate an action again. Remember what the action is, type it, find the matching command that is aptly-named, push enter to run it. And, with Helm for example, it even shows the keybind next to it.

There is nothing wrong with using git commands in the terminal.

There is also nothing wrong with copying your entire tree to a different directory, diffing, applying patches by hand, and keeping track of what goes where.

Those are different levels of automation for the same fundamental task, but they are all legitimate solutions to the same problem, although you might end up spending more or less time to perform the same fundamental task, depending on the level of automation.

The reality is you are spouting crap about people being poor because (apparently) their houses are too big (??), while also not knowing (VERY) basic economic terms. I was just giving you facts.

Honestly, your lack of awareness is quite astounding - but it appears that you are overentitled as well as privileged, so that kind of makes sense.

Birch plywood and baltic birch plywood are completely different animals.

Regular birch plywood is indeed often the cheap stuff.

Baltic birch will be void-free and of a very consistent quality and made from thinner veneers. It's much more stable and high quality product, although you're correct that it probably won't be as pretty on the surfaces.

And the coordination with the huge crowd.
If someone asks a simple question, it’s great - because most likely executives will have the exact same question, but depending on your relationship with them, it could go a few ways (or more): 1) they just think you don’t get it because they assume the answer to the basic question and it’s not the assumption you’re operating off of 2) they call you on it during the presentation and make it look like you have failed to explain the fundamentals 3) they wait until after the presentation to ask the question, and others in the room aren’t really sure about it either, because you just assumed everyone knew.

I think it’s OK to ask dumb questions twice. If you don’t get it by the third time (or fail to remember), then we might need to step back and revisit fundamentals, or your mental model might need adjustment so that the information makes sense in context.
