Bunker fuel is relatively low in terms of CO2 emissions, requires far less energy and emissions to refine, and its use is disallowed anywhere near land.

Given this, aside from pollution being something we don't like to do in general, there's no particular reason why bunker fuel is worse than something else. Emitting NOx thousands of kilometers from people, plants, or animals isn't really harmful.

Same for me. Notifications on macOS weren’t great before but they are way worse now.

Before they were an annoyance; but now they’re just utterly baffling to me. I have no idea what I’m supposed to click half the time and they seem to come back randomly for me too.
The prosecution kinda rushed to charge the kid before the lions share of the evidence was even collected. Of course a bunch of defense lawyers are gonna root against that.

Mako was the thing that Shinra almost destroyed the planet trying to extract, so you may end up opening the project up to a lot of Barret+Bitcoin memes. That could be a win!
A fun side effect of the AZERTY layout is that, before widespread smartphones, you used to be able to tell when the French left the country to go on vacation because there would be a spike in Google searches for "frqnce":

This search has become less common as people take their smartphones and, hence, their own keyboards, with them.

If EMP were to hit (by solar flare, nuclear, or weapon) then I would want nothing but Solar panels, LEDs, heating coils, wires, wires, and wires.

Can make soldering iron, flashlights, and heater with it. Everything else can fall in place.

Might not hurt to have a solar-powered calculator.
I'm really surprised Apple let Shenzhen, China show on the tracking.

For a premium product, I would expect them to be focussing on the "Designed by Americans in America" bit of the message rather than the "Made in China".

ACA has subsidies for lower income households
Funnily, it's because of the massive amount of bureaucracy involved.

I say funnily, because the US government is know for being light on bureaucracy. Yet, somehow the US healthcare system has given it a run for it's money.

Every hospital has a significant amount of staff dedicated to billing and negotiating with insurance companies. Every insurance company has a fleet of employees who work on optimizing costs, denying coverage when possible, and negotiating bills with hospitals. And on top of that, a large part of the job of HR for employers is managing healthcare benefits and negotiating with healthcare providers.

Layers upon layers of ultimately waste.

A single payer system ends up saving cost because.

A. There's no negotiating bills with the government. You either accept what they are paying or you don't get paid.

B. Because the government deals with every hospital, they've got very good insight into what things ACTUALLY cost. That makes it hard for a medical provider to play fast and loose with the numbers.

In otherwords, admin costs for Hospitals go completely away and the government admin costs end up being a fraction of what the rest of the insurance industry is doing (because a lot of what private insurance is doing is trying to make money off of premiums in the stock market). Government does not have that incentive in the slightest.
Yeah I used to love these releases as a c# developer but now I think they're doing more harm than good. I guess it's my time as a go developer that has changed me.

New studies are showing that hydro is not as clean as we once thought and may be producing large amounts of methane (due to anaerobic breakdown of organic materials in flood basins), which is orders of magnitude worse than CO2 per unit volume for greenhouse effects in the short-to-medium term.

The bugs in the Apple ecosystem drive me batty. Even in the latest version of iOS, when my phone changes between night and day mode, Safari only updates the background color of the URL bar but not the text, leaving me with white text on a white background. I can only fix it by force quitting Safari, and the problem doesn’t occur when I manually toggle between modes. Yay.

But you know, I installed Windows 10 via bootcamp recently and even simple stuff like mapping caps lock to control requires either changing a registry setting or installing power tools. Also, the ads. Similarly, I can’t stand the UI of Android TV compared to tvOS.

So as much as I find Apple products infuriating a times, the alternatives are even worse.

So I stick with Apple. But its products no longer bring me joy. They are just another slightly less shitty tech product I put up with.

There’s a slogan for you: less shitty than the other guys.

Sigh.
My point is that it's at least mathematically possible for a scenario to exist where the assertion I was responding true does not happen. If the idea is that _in practice_ people always lower the prices, then it seems more direct to just say that rather than claim some sort of law of economics that doesn't actually have any mathematical proof.
> I don’t know if Ivermectin is effective for Covid or not. From what I have heard it seems like looking into it with an unbiased lens may be worth it.

People did look into this with an unbiased lens (did dozens of medical studies, many still ongoing) and so far there is no good evidence that it has any beneficial effect whatsoever. On the other hand now a bunch of people have overdosed from taking veterinary doses not intended for human consumption (there have been thousands of calls to poison control centers about Ivermectin in the past few months, and some have died).

From what I have seen everyone pushing Ivermectin is a grossly misinformed and non-credible amateur. Some of these snake-oil salespeople may have direct financial interest, while others just want to promote their own questionable agendas, e.g. trying to undermine/disparage some extremely effective vaccines.

This is a horrible example of something “worth looking into”.

Real talk, I personally have very little faith in corporations and large systems where I don't get face time with executives, because of similar incidents. That said, it doesn't take much faith for me to believe that a surplus of airplanes and crew + a reduction in the efficiency benefits of economies of scale, on account of demand reductions could cause temporary edge cases like this.

I think we get worried if it stays this close for long, considering how much less fuel shipping uses.

> It's not possible to write an algorithm that will not have misfires at the scale of YouTube

Well there is; you don't put takedowns in the hands of an algorithm. Ideally you put them in the hands of a court of law.
Partially, I guess? The celebrated ones tend to be the ones to suit a taste the audience didn't know they had - especially today when we've seen incredible virtuosos of just about anything, so "different" is the only thing people haven't seen before. But surely there are artists who are more or less successful with more conventional work.
Yes. Think of airpods and their unreplaceable batteries for instance.

I understand that storytelling is a basic human thing, and repeating a good story is something virtually everybody does, including me, constantly and compulsively.

But a story that is false can't provide useful guidance, can it? What is the attraction in repeating it in the face of incompatible facts?

>Many small cafes will simply shut down and not even fight when a Starbucks pops up nearby.

I literally used to work in the downtown of a small city, diagonally across an intersection from a Starbucks, and it was, for a time, an almost daily ritual for my office to go there.

But there was another coffee shop basically the same straight-line distance to the west.

And there was a donuts & coffee place a few meters to the north.

Some people (well, a lot) only go to Starbucks. But that's a choice, or peer pressure, or a mental trap, not some kind of economic hegemony. Or for all I know people actually like the coffee.

Why do similar businesses locate near each other? Many people have noticed this pattern besides me; I bet you can find more by searching the internet, if you will accept that it happens in the first place.

Another instance: I can think of two places in my area right offhand where there is a Rite-Aid and a CVS as close as possible to each other.

This seems the likely result, but I’m not quite convinced it’s their motivation.

It seems just as likely to me that they’re reporting based on analysis from people who are ideologically motivated, consciously or not.
That’s a fair assumption in my opinion we already know the US government was rerouting packages to install spyware why would we not assume China does the same. But what I do doubt is that they would do it to every phone and not just target individual actors.
Yeah OP title really buried the lede. It's like "Woman receives puncture wound," instead of "Man shoots woman".

Anyway the Russian sat was at about 487 x 461 km orbit and ISS at about 330 x 435 km. That's a haircut.

Also: in July, Nauka's thrusters fired uncommanded, sending ISS way off attitude.

Is this a pattern? Is it political posturing, organizational competency rot, or just slop?
Airlines are making a lot of money in freight right now, yes.
I worked on Filenet and Neoxam based systems. Try to get some certs, like AWS. See if there is any common stuff between your current job and desired job you can learn, like scripting.

Sometimes it can be easier to switch at the same company. See if you can get into a different team that works with the newer tech. If you are switching companies you may need to take a pay and/or title cut.

I work in finance too and hate it. I'm not sure anywhere else would be better though.

As someone who deals with medicaid paperwork as well as private insurance paperwork. It's basically exactly the same from the insuree's POV.

I give the hospital my child's medicaid number, they take it from there. Really pretty much that simple. No prior approval. No crazy paperwork. Just give 'em the number and you are off to the races.

I'm sure it would be worse for elective surgeries, but that's not really what anyone is arguing for.
Since when is Project Veritas "right-wing"? The guy legally documents people saying things and releases that info to the public.
I have followed them for the last couple of weeks, and there is a good reason for that.

The prosecution has beyond ridiculous arguments time and again over the last 2 weeks. The lawyers all started out really civil, and some of the violations (especially the 5th amendment one that even got the Judge angry) began to make then exasperated.

Combine that with the general silence of the defense, and by now they are all pretty angry at how much of a mess this is.

A lot of ridiculous arguments were brought up by the jury about Rosenbaum, to the point that internal jokes have started emerging surrounding the death of Rosenbaum. Most serve to ridicule the prosecution, rather than Rosenbaum himself.

Lastly, They you are in profession where every time you're in court, some has died. You develop a cruel sense of humor to cope. Very common for victims of abuse or military to have similar coping mechanisms. It seems bizarre from a civilian's POV, but that's just our privilege.
This seems like more than a non-zero risk? I don’t know much about physics or missiles but it seems like debris would be a fairly obvious outcome?

Plain HTML (with neither CSS nor JavaScripts). Any fancy PHP or other things might usually be unneeded; you can just write them plainly, which is easily enough. I might also have NNTP for discussions/blog/comments/announcements, Telnet/SSH for interactive sessions (if any are needed, which it might not be), etc.
I have never expected my blog post to be in Hacker News. The aim of all of it is to be able to have F#-script-powered plugins in otherwise compiled code. Check out my example here: https://github.com/queil/fsc-host/blob/main/examples/Compile...

True. Armoring against either one isn't going to be practical.
The prize money flowing to miners doesn’t change so energy usage won’t change. (You can think of this as fixed overhead that’s proportional to Bitcoin’s price, regardless of what transactions do.)

However, the transactions do more so arguably the cost/benefit ratio improves a bit. Measuring this might be hard without a clear definition of what the benefit of a transaction is.

You are describing Tim Budd's Little Smalltalk.

it sounds like a major communication issue, where users are expecting something you don't offer, or that the competition does and thus they expect you to offer it too.
Thanks, I'll check it out. Yeah, that's the main draw for me.
I much prefer this way if saying it to "we can't find any staff", which so many businesses are saying.

No... You can't find any staff willing to do this work for the pay you're offering. Offer more pay and you won't have an issue.
I'm still trying to figure out how to tell Podcasts not to play episodes I've heard before.

Play #27 of Show, then #26, and after playing #26, it will automatically choose to go on with #27 again.
Other than constantly thinking about it, have you had any actual negative consequences due to this?

I'm asking, because with only one exception, none of the employers I've worked at ever took a look at your education when making hiring decisions. It was maybe interesting as a talking point, if I went to the same school as the candidate I was interviewing, but that's it.

I think you should work on readjusting your thinking rather than figuring out how to get the degree.

Not to get in a pedantic FF7 debate, but I don't believe Mako was destroying the planet: Shinra's Mako reactors were destroying the planet. Mako energy was a tool, and it could be used for good or evil, just like cryptocurrency. In the case of bitcoin, I believe it is being used for good.
Sure, otherwise the battery would be easily replaceable like in some older phones. It hardly seems like a coincidence that a crucial component which significantly degrades roughly in time with the product cycle also happens to be glued into the chassis of many modern smart phones or otherwise rendered inaccessible. While they're not impossible to replace, doing so is clearly a high enough barrier to prevent most users from attempting it.
> There are various event sources we consume data from, and they are produced in different platforms and storage systems, such as Hadoop, Vertica, Manhattan distributed databases, Kafka, Twitter Eventbus, GCS, BigQuery, and PubSub.

I'm surprised that they mentioned Twitter EventBus, I thought that they were migrating away from that to Apache Kafka entirely. [1] Mind you, they've got a lot of tech going on, so not surprising if it's still present in legacy systems.

Fun fact, if you dig into the architecture of Twitter EventBus, it will seem awfully familiar to the architecture of Apache Pulsar (storage separated from brokers, storage based on Bookkeeper), and that's no coincidence, as Sijie Guo, CEO of StreamNative developed EventBus at Twitter (also a main dev of BookKeeper). StreamNative is to Pulsar as Confluent is to Kafka.

And the reasons that Twitter moved from EventBus to Kafka also apply to Pulsar, which is worth keeping in mind the next time an HN commenter proclaims "Le roi (Kafka) est mort, vive le roi! (Pulsar)".

My wife has been complaining about the random feature playing the same songs over and over again. It's been about ten years now. I stopped using the trash fire because of it.
It does here; there's nothing that guarantees that it would elsewhere. Taking our biology as a starting point, imagine that red blood cells reproduced independently, and could compete and be upgraded within the organism with no loss of consciousness. There are a bajillion other mechanisms the same thing could happen.
You can try learning Neoxam. It won't be fun and it won't get you a job. It will be very niche though.
Variations of that are pretty common for APAC -> CONUS cargo. Anchorage and Louisville are both major cargo hubs. If it doesn't _require_ the speed, you're probably better off (from a cost perspective) carrying more packages, than the fuel to do longer directs.

The conclusion I drew from the article was "I had to lose a hand to appreciate GNOME." The author does not intend to stay with it once her hand heals.
I am pretty sure that this upgrade was the piece needed to "more legitimately decentralize" the currency bridge between Bitcoin and rsk (rootstalk), which is the EVM-compatible smart contract layer that uses Bitcoin (bridged as rBTC) as its native gas currency (and which is being "merge mined" by a majority of the current Bitcoin hash rate and thereby isn't some weird insecure underutilized side chain).
I think it only serves as a reminder they could take out other nations satellites should they choose. Almost like a reminder of M.A.D. and that if we think about attacking them in any way they can say you better be careful or else!
The MS MFC was bad too. I did not use that as much.

When I had the choice I switched to using the C-SDK and an event loop.

Twenty years ago now, but I can still recall my frustration. So much work (by Borland and MS) to make things so much worse
"we received a report to our security bug bounty program of a vulnerability that would allow an attacker to publish new versions of any npm package using an account without proper authorization."

"This vulnerability existed in the npm registry beyond the timeframe for which we have telemetry to determine whether it has ever been exploited maliciously. However, we can say with high confidence that this vulnerability has not been exploited maliciously during the timeframe for which we have available telemetry, which goes back to September 2020."

Any version of any npm package published before September 2020 could have been tampered with by anyone aware of that exploit and no-one would be any the wiser. That is pretty bad news.
I buy hardware for new staff in Copenhagen, and none of the Danish people ask for the US or UK layout.

People from other countries are more likely to ask for an English layout, generally UK if they're from Europe (it keeps the ISO enter key shape) or US otherwise.
All of those are media created issues as well.
No, it's not a question of interpretation. You simply understood it incorrectly. Another quote from capableweb in this thread which hopefully makes this clear for you:

> uploading happens by doing a POST request to the server, and fetching happens by doing a PUT request, not sure why people keep re-iterating that it's probably WebRTC when it's really not, this is just a very basic, centralized server that does the receiving/sending of the file
>where nations can't use financial levers to try to economically punish known bad actors, e.g. Magnitsky Act.

Probably unknowable but I wonder what has caused more damage to the world, financial crimes or centralized financial levers being used to steal the time/savings/wealth of 8 billion people and redistribute it to a small group of people.
