It depends where. In Europe or was never a thing except for Jews and now Muslims. It never went mainstream like in the US.
That's why one of the first things I check - proof of walking.
This is only a concern with electoral systems that deny the losing group representation. Like winner-take-all.

It wouldn't make any difference at all with proportional representation. And PR can even be implemented in the executive branch, as the Swiss have demonstrated.
> Do some cities actually let cyclists bike on sidewalks?

Not sidewalks per se, but combined, mixed-used paths are very common. Whether this is a good idea or not is another issue.
> Can .NET deploy a static binary nowadays?

You can bundle everything in a single file but that file contains the runtime, so even small Hello World apps are 50MB+ last I checked, though there have been some improvements recently with trimming and AOT is hopefully coming next year with .NET 7.

pip3 and virtualenv.

Both are pretty easy to learn. Everything else is pretty much an abstraction layer on top of one or both of the above.
Not so fast. It is true that trees alone can't take us all the way to net-zero. But they can contribute, and the contribution could be non-negligible.

Right now for example, according to the EPA [1], the US emits about 6.6 GT CO2 equivalent per year, but the land sequesters about 0.8 GT, for a net emissions of 5.8 GT. From the 0.8 GT sequestered, about 0.7 GT come from trees. That's about 10% of the gross CO2 emissions.

If we can double the sequestration by trees, then we can reduce emissions by a further 10%, and that's nothing to sneeze at.

There seem to always be a ton of three wheel "car" companies close to making their vehicles a reality (Elio, anyone?). I hope that one of them succeeds eventually. I'd love to own one someday.
Overhead bins are a bit annoying, but for me, less annoying than having to stick around waiting for the luggage to be unloaded. If you're lucky it's quick, but there have been enough times where that hasn't been the case to make me only check bags when I have to. Just walking straight out of the plane and then the airport is a great feeling.

Obviously the easiest is if you've only got a small bag and can fit it under the seat, in which case this question becomes moot -- but when you do need a bigger piece of luggage for whatever reason, gate-checking isn't such an obvious win.
So Germany invading France because 'fear of the UK' is the fault of the UK?

Please. It was a powder Keg, and notably, Germany 'started it'.
The author doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

Business class revenue is far more than economy revenue. Both by square footage and total absolute $. Then there’s cargo revenue.

The reason economy passengers get treated like crap is because economy passengers provide crap revenue.
Deep Dive into Yrs Architecture
DRAM cells also decay over time (~ 60 milliseconds), but memory controllers have some logic to refresh every row on a regular schedule so it's not an issue.

They should also have logic to refresh adjacent rows if some number of consecutive accesses to a small group of rows is detected. This is rare in normal workloads, because those accesses normally come from cache. It's lame of chipmakers to not fix this. The fix would requires the DRAM controller (integrated into modern CPUs) to know more about the internals of DRAMs than they currently do.

They were, before we bulldozed them to make way for highways and parking lots. Some still are. (Hello from Philadelphia!)
I am ecstatic to see those numbers, which are very different from numbers I've seen in the past. My bad. (Probably.)

>reduce the environmental and health impacts of artificial pesticides and fertilizers

that seems like using a blunt instrument to address two orthogonal issues, in a roundabout way.

1. if it's actually about the environmental/health impacts, why shouldn't artificial pesticides/fertilizers be allowed on a per-chemical basis if the evidence supports its safety?

2. is there any requirement that organic farming have less environmental impact on net compared to conventional farming? You might win in terms of run-off artificial pesticides and fertilizers, but then lose out overall because of lower yields.

>(plus more humane conditions for livestock),

is humane treatment part of organic certification?
Most bikers only use the sidewalk when the road infrastructure as-is isn’t safe enough for bikers.

And I fully agree that there are a lot of bad bikers, but a bad biker is a nuisance to a driver while a bad driver is a potential fatality to a biker.
> they change the politics around cycling

While I agree with e-bikes being a generally good thing, I also think they involve a lot of secondary consequences and we still need to figure out the best solutions. For example, having more e-bikes on the already overcrowded bike path near where I live is becoming a disaster. There had already been enough problems with mismatched speeds, impatience on all sides, etc. There had even been fatalities. Adding e-bikes makes all of that even worse. While I have little love for the "rich lycra-clad yuppies" (there really are plenty of them) who are mostly just horrified by the idea of their hobby becoming more inclusive, I kind of agree with them that the path can't safely support yet another (faster, heavier) type of conveyance. I wouldn't want horses on the path for the same reason.

There's a complementary issue with e-bikes on roads. There's still going to be a speed mismatch, with e-bikes in the middle this time instead of the high end. Bike lanes are going to become more dangerous, traffic-light timings will have to change, etc. Where are the e-bikes going to be parked or stored while not in use? On my now-ended visits to Seattle I saw these problems already manifesting, and they're likely to become even worse as e-bikes continue to become more popular.

In the long term, maybe the "changed politics" will lead to improved infrastructure that supports all classes of users including e-bikes. In the short term, it's likely to be a free-for-all like I used to see in Bangalore with all the tuk-tuks and scooters mixed in with cars and trucks and buses. Not looking forward to it.
..ok, but how is that related at all with a web framework?
It’s probably USB 3.0 frequencies clashing with Bluetooth freqs. Even worse if you’re connected to 2.4Ghz wifi since it’s the same frequency Bluetooth uses.
AMD announced the Milan-X CPUs earlier __TODAY__.

The fact that Microsoft already has numbers for how Milan-X performs in their Azure cloud means that AMD / Microsoft must have been working together months ago. That's the most fascinating part of this story IMO.

---------

The technical information about which workloads benefit from the 1.5GB of L3 cache (woah momma. That's a lot of L3 cache) on these dual-socket Milan-X servers is also interesting for sure and worth a read.
I've only played for a couple minutes, but from my experience it works perfectly on Linux.
Right. A lot of times you see 3 wheel vehicles instead of 4 for regulatory reasons. That’s silly.

I agree it’d be super awesome to get car-like protection from rain and wind, better stability than a bike, but maintaining the very low mass (and therefore low inertia and low pedestrian risk) & low cost & low footprint & high efficiency of bikes.
If you remove the limiter and pedal assist requirement, you have an electric motorcycle. If you want one of those, then you'll need to be licensed to ride one.

Do you want an e-bike you can ride like a bicycle, or do you want an e-bike you can ride like a motorcycle?
Norway and Finland fines proportional to your yearly salary. Of course there are some problems with that, but in general I like that system more.
Eventually is a long time :-)

Which is why this is true.

But I doubt there aren't any currencies around from 1000 AD that haven't suffered that fate.
What's the point of a blockchain here? It suffers the same flaws as when proposed for things like property ownership records. You don't actually want an immutable ledger, for one thing. Professional certifications can usually be revoked. Log the revocation as well? Might as well just publish the certifications publicly and sign them (and their revocations). Such a public database would be about as secure with none of the overhead. IMO blockchains are massive overkill if you just want to redundantly publish something.
If PepsiCo (one of the companies listed) ceased production of plastic bottles immediately I would be happy. That is a serious, credible commitment to improve.
My e-bike is taxed, insured and tested to the same standards as a light e-moto (in Germany, a Riese & Mueller 'charger'). The only difference with the bicycle version is the speed limiter setting.
Ask HN: Why are monitors lagging behind in tech?
Now that MacBook Pro comes with a really gorgeous 120hz 4K-ish display and the fact that mobile phones have had one of the best displays, it makes me wonder why do we not have such good displays in the consumer monitor segment? The only consumer retina display monitor is the Lg ultra fine 5k and that doesn’t have high refresh rate.
> I wish they would stick to a smaller set of more powerful features

That's basically F#. One can program just using OOP in F#, and it is much more clean and concise.
The politics now are about banning ice. The electric cars being more expensive makes this discriminatory against low earners. I wonder if it would be far more effective to ban large suv's (uk). Of course e bikes and scooters are the way forward in cities.
My next question would be is there an economic value of a seal? I would think slapping a logo on everything works all the same. Or am I wrong to think most (everyone except the creator?) people would not know or care about seeing a seal vs a logo.
I like the idea of having some stuff (clothes, necessities) that I carried onto the plane. I don't trust the airline not to lose my bags.
I don't see it as padding so much as simply hiding price increases by misleading the customer. And it's easy to see why it's a race to the bottom sorely in need of regulation: you can't compete against the airline that charges extra for bags because people will filter out your flight before they realize the games being played.

Which is the same thing that happens with shrinkflation in packaging: the "half gallon" of ice cream that is actually missing 20% can be priced lower than the full half gallon. You don't have to fool everyone but just enough to raise your market share a little with your deceptively "lower" prices.
Yes. Several cities in the Bay Area have shared sidewalks; e.g. Embarcadero in San Francisco, and Foster City has a ton of them. I don't know of any cities that allow all sidewalks to be used by bikes, but I'm sure some exist.
In that case, it sounds like a really good reason to question why the staging environment is not enough like prod that load tests are valid. Or why a not-fully-tested system upgrade would happen 10 seconds before launch.
It still has some rough edges, but I really like it since it seems to be only .NET GUI choice compatible with Linux. I'm bit sad that MS might suffocate the project with the Multi-platform App UI (MAUI) which does not work on Linux :/ Fortunately, MAUI seems to have much more glitches than Avalonia ATM
I've been thinking about doing the same thing but am worried it will explode on me. Are there any tips you have for starting out or mistakes to be sure to avoid?

I was hoping to use this as a project to learn electricity with and it sounds like you did something similar.
> ask all the Palestinians inside of Israel to move there

Why should they agree to this?
If they had something substantial it would make sense to patent it, instead of keeping it hidden and the potential for it to be stolen as an option. Either the principle their reactor will work on isn't conceptually done yet or they're being seriously irresponsible with their achievements.
This is an excellent point, and whether or not it happened here it is often what happens, not only in developer jobs.
Not a particularly deep analysis. Note that while I'm not necessarily vouching for OAG's data, they are big players in the travel space and I trust them a lot more than this blog.

Here's the OAG report that's sketchily linked to a paywall in the article: https://www.oag.com/hubfs/Free_Reports/Busiest%20Routes/OAG%...

A more current snapshot from OAG: https://www.oag.com/busiest-routes-right-now

And finally, OAG's own blog post on billion dollar routes: https://www.oag.com/blog/billion-dollar-route-jewels-in-the-...

Basically it was only JFK-LHR before the pandemic. Most of the other high revenue routes are probably what you should expect, although I didn't expect SYD-MEL to be quite that high. I think maybe it's because the ranking is by airline and route and Qantas might dominate that route more than other airlines would dominate international routes.
I wonder if there is any parallels of programming languages to spoken languages.

Every year, new words are constantly added to official dictionaries ... while old words continually fall out of favor/use.

And concepts in one language (e.g. "English" or "Rust") then get adopted/imported into another language (e.g. "French" or "Go").
> Imagine e.g. a meat thermometer that gave ppb/ppt of 100+ pesticide residues

You don't even need a consumer widget to do that. We have organic certification programs that conduct inspections/audits. Why can't we have a "low pesticide"/"pesticide free" program that does guarantees low pesticide residues?
I think F#, Clojure, and Elixir are languages that show it's possible to stop adding major features to.

If you are going to be using PostgreSQL with ZFS, be sure to set:

wal_init_zero = off # zero-fill new WAL files

wal_recycle = off # recycle WAL files

Otherwise, you will see some intermittent performance issues.
Yes, that is the whole line. But like i said, it changes what the article is about for that to be in the thesis of the article. It takes it from a exploration to a recommendation.

Considering the other threads going around in other posts today, it's clear that a lot of people on here consider desktop linux to be superior and more user friendly that macOS.

There's a lot of people who seem to think this kind of thing is a thing normal people would be willing to do with their time. Like they think the rest of the world is just like the target audience of hacker news.
> Gate checked luggage comes to you on the skyway not at the luggage claim

That's not a given. At least as many times as not, I've gate-checked luggage and had to pick it up at baggage claim with everyone else.
Hasbara Hasbara. When you're pushing Palestinian narrative you're progressive. When you're pushing zionist narrative you're an evil Jew Hasbara troll.
If you travel a lot you basically have to fight for that overhead space - otherwise you will periodically end up in travel hell when they lose your suitcase.

The good news is that if you travel a lot, you probably have status, and so you are one of the first to get on the plane.
A spoonful of sugar helps the radioactive oatmeal go down (2017)
They're an absolute legal minefield though.

For example around here you can get a ticket for using one on both cycle paths and also on roads with a 40 MpH speed limit. So you're more legally limited than both a cyclist but also a moped user. The biggest reason why they're popular here at all is that laws are selectively enforced.

None of this is e-bike's fault of course, and the original Segway mostly failed because it too was banned from both footpaths but also many roads. Local city and states haven't evolved much to include new modes of transport outside the traditional (although some would call that a blessing as they don't want licensing/mandatory insurance/tax on e-bikes/e-scooters).
> I think Blockchain removes the cost of user authentication (you are your address) which is non-negligible. Everybody has an identity that only they can use.

Like a login/password… With a specific difference, that if you lose your private key or if it's stolen, you're doomed and you cannot recover. The user authentication story is actually the weakest point of blockchains/cryptocurrencies, and that's exactly why 99% of their user actually uses a third-party wallet.

Also, smart contract sound like some magic sauce, but in fact aren't anything magical, they are short programs that can be executed on public data in the ledger, that's it. And the execution environment isn't distributed either (at least in the meaning of distributed computing, every node have to process the entire contract).
this is exactly the politics around cycling that need to change. cyclists have been asking for better infrastructure for decades, and been told to go play in traffic because we're a weird niche interest group who can be ignored.

we need better infrastructure for non-car transportation. the short-term hell is simply more people experiencing what most cyclists are already used to.
not the intended take, but I'd love to see fewer dead butterflies regardless of the posing. while the patterns on their wings are beautiful, butterflies are a particularly unpleasant insect to look at for me. I'd enjoy looking at beetles or flies more; something about the proportions of butterflies makes them rather awful
I'm pretty sure some of those are on by default (PermitEmptyPasswords). Some others don't have a sane general setting (AllowUsers) or depend completely on your local environment (KerberosAuthentication). Some are compatibility issues (PasswordAuthentication, cypher selection). And finally, some are ... more controversial than defaults should be (Port, PermitRootLogin).
Are you worried about swap use at all? I’m on the same boat but I’m a noob so I just put my IDE and browser tabs on my memory. I don’t even know how to use docker yet
I almost wish they hand't wrapped IQueryable and IEnumerable under the same branding. I get that there's a lot of overlap at the interface level, but, in terms of what they're doing under the hood and the effect on how you use them, they're really quite very different.
C# has a framework in-place to facilitate workspace-specific linters, so even if one doesn't exist, it could be written very easily (and premade ones are sure to appear quickly).

That's hitting close to home. I'm near end my funding and visa time, with not enough publications. The three years have been mostly being told no to whatever I proposed and not given worthwhile stuff to do instead. And when it did it was things already done 3-4 decades ago. My advisor even told me the other day things that made it clear he was aware of the kind of stuffs I want to incorporate in my work, yet didn't seek any middle ground.

On the other side I have multiple projects, the biggest one already presented in a conference. I meet multiple people my university and other big ones that are very enthusiastic about either that project or the official one (which got none in my own lab) so it's not like what I'm doing was totally dumb.

I'm not sure what to do now. I have 3 more years to write the thesis, but would need to find a job to stay in the country. Hopefully I used web technologies I can market on my CV but I'm bit sour about the whole thing (and life in general).
>There are many things which count as organic qualified treatments which are defensibly “not particularly synthetic” but are still concerning from an environmental and human health angle.

This is a fascinating idea, congrats. I see major issues with the existing planes: they do not seem designed to be retrofitted with down facing cameras.

Also, near real time HiRes images means a lot of bandwidth that you don't usually have in the air.

Well I sure hope that ends up being the case, but unfortunately history is also teeming with startups promising the world, getting funding and then collapsing while getting nothing done.
Looks great! Out of curiosity, how do you plan to compete with & distinguish yourself from well-funded players in the space like Integromat[1] etc?

To be fair there is a difference between female and male circumcision.

The female one is clearly to assert dominance over women, ideally in a painful and traumatical way. Also preventing them from getting pleasure from intercourse, because this is a men's thing.

For boys it is a barbaric ritual attached to some religions. The difference is that it is usually done on babies and is not particularly impacting later on.

Both are in my opionions felonies, done in the name of retarded ideas. The consequences are however very different.
I've been a huge proponent of file-scoped namespaces and it's in C# 10. I think it'll improve code readability and maintainability significantly despite being a seemingly minor change. It's also in line with "minimal API" and "top-level code" changes. I wrote about it here: https://ssg.dev/a-pledge-for-namespace-directives-in-c-15a32...
You could also deal with updating host keys by signing them and just having clients trust the signing authority.
Which ones aren't secure by default? When you install new OS like Debian those defaults will be correctly set (and depending on your organization, you may change some settings around to fit your needs).
However, if you customized your config e.g. in debian 6 and updated to 11, you may wanna revisit those settings and change them
