And if the country you're in dares change the DST switch-over date (aka the US, during the Clinton era), you're now in an even worse situation, because you have to change it four times a year. Twice because of DST, then two more times because your clock is trying to be helpful and accommodate DST for you. That or you download the firmware, repack it with new tzdata files, and reflash the system, which as we all know, all manufacturers totally support everywhere, and for free, so doing that sounds like an easy technical exercise.
Google does this for some time at least.

There's still a lot of unfounded blank-slatism and autism (in the sense of inability to empathize) in our educated society, and proudly on display here on HN.

It's effectively impossible to get someone with an IQ of 130 to have empathy for someone with an IQ of 95. They just need to work harder, they just need to have better teachers, they just need to stop watching so much television, they just need to get better nutrition, ad nauseum.

Imagine the ego crush that would occur if a 130 IQ true-believer in human equality is faced with the prospect that their intellectual success is due to winning a genetic lottery, not due to their hard work and proper life choices.

Of course they're going to deny the reality of hardwired cognitive horsepower.

To do otherwise is to deny how much better they are than you.
A less dismissive characterization might be that it's a piece of tech art.

It's not really decriminalized. While you don't have to fear criminal prosecution in most cases (unless you're in Bavaria) they will punish you by taking away your driving license, even if you never actually drove under influence.
I learned this the hard way a few years ago.

Having several drives is not enough. I used to keep my important data replicated on 3 drives, from different brands, different capacities, 1 internal, 2 external.

One day the internal drive failed, the next day one of the external drives also failed. So... I panicked, shut everything down and bought a brand new hard drive (1tb). While copying from the third drive it also stopped working. So, I had a triple drive failure.
I managed to recover most of my data by freezing the external drives and copying from them (until they heated up and had to freeze them again).
I guess every little bit helps, but 100 GB/mo * $0.09/GB = $9/mo of savings. That's nice for a hobby project, but it seems utterly negligible for any actual business.

Another reference to this kind of abilities of Hephaestus is in the famous passage from the Iliad when Hephaestus forges a new armor for Achilles.

In doing this work, Hephaestus is aided by some amphipoloi created by him (Greek amphipoloi = Latin ancillae, which means female servants), which were made of metal and which were sentient and followed exactly the commands of Hephaestus.

AFAIK, this Iliad fragment is the earliest description of robots that is known.
"In any case, the data is clear - there is a larger deviation towards higher temperatures, over many years, without historic precedent."

Except you also seem to misunderstand the use of the word, as it is completely unrelated to there being a "deviation towards higher temperatures". At most you could argue that it doesn't matter if people misunderstand it, as there happens to actually be an "anomaly" anyway.

About the reference time frame - I think things were going on before, like mini ice ages and what not. However I merely wanted to point out that the timeframe is arbitrarily chosen, not that it is necessarily a bad choice. In combination with the word "anomaly" it becomes more questionable as it kind of implies that those 10 years were "normal".

Japan is so bankrupt that nobody else will hold their not properly rated debt.

Mind you, Japan's clearly bankrupt central bank cannot actually go bankrupt. There is no gold standard, there is no bank run, there is no liquidation requirements. So what? You just magically keep raising the imaginary numbers with no consequences?

This is where OP happens.

Flipside, I am curious about an alternative approach to fixing the issue like Greece did. Japan is headed toward a situation where their currency will be worthless and their people own nothing. Yes it will mean all retirees pretty much have to go get a job but the federal gov will effectively take ownership over most land. People who actually own their homes will effectively become fiefs.

I bet bitcoin and similar coins is beyond popular in Japan right now.
I don't see what's wrong here, is there a "mass killings under capitalist regimes" page? We can start with 100 million indigenous souls in the Americas and count from there!

These listicles might get you some clicks on BuzzFeed, but violate Wikipedia's SYNTH policy. It is an encyclopedia, you can't combine multiple sources to synthesize an argument not made individually by any source. If these massacres are unique to communism, or caused entirely by it, by all means cite a reliable source that says so. If you can't, to the point that the page has to borrow from better wiki articles, it'll be nominated for deletion.

If anything I'm surprised this has been up for discussion for YEARS, but then again Wikipedia has always had a centrist/libertarian bent
> macOS typically does #2 implicitly

On macOS libSystem.dylib provides the C runtime (i.e. libc). It cannot be statically linked, and AFAIU you cannot ship it with your own project.[1] To support older environments you declare an ABI/API target using MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET, -miphoneos-version-min, or similar toolchain option. It's normative for projects targeting an Apple platform to explicitly declare a target several releases in the past, but without an explicit declaration the default is to build a binary targeting the version of the SDK you're using, which would normally be the most recently released.

Bundling your own dynamic libraries is trivial on Linux by simply defining the run-time search path (aka rpath) when building your application. In general, the systems's dynamic linker is entirely agnostic. And this is even easier on Linux than most other platforms as you can use the $ORIGIN macro to define paths relative to the main binary rather than using fixed absolute paths. $ORIGIN was supported several years before the similar capability on macOS, @loader_path and @executable_path.

Bundling dynamic libraries is extremely simple on Linux, it's just not common.

Linking to an older glibc ABI is also possible--glibc rigorously utilizes ELF symbol versioning--but admittedly very difficult. None of the build toolchains provide built-in facilities (i.e. not even anything similar to the musl-gcc wrapper for cross-compiling against musl on glibc-based systems), and for the most part glibc only versions its run-time binary symbols, not its compile-time header API. That means you basically need to download old glibc headers or, as most people tend to do, build on old distributions.

OTOH, on Linux you can at least statically link your own libc on account of the kernel's [relatively] stable ABI.

In practice neither Linux, macOS, nor Windows provide an ideal situation. But at least in principle Linux supports all the common permutations anyone may want, excepting the absence of any singularly blessed system libc. (But to reiterate both musl libc and especially glibc provide strong backwards ABI compatibility, notwithstanding the absence of compile-time knobs for selecting older ABIs.)

[1] Perhaps you can hack things to load a bundled libSystem copy. I have a vague memory of someone pointing that out on HN before. But in any event that's definitely not a supported feature.
We should be meeting in the middle and creating SBCs whose bolt holes spacing is identical to some other device standard. For instance 2.5” HDDs, or 3.5-2.5 adapters. Then you can find trays and enclosures and caddies that can be modified slightly to purpose.

Expanding holes in sheet metal is easy. Tapping holes, welding captive nuts, and bending are a lot trickier.
It depends how you manage scope. When there are thousands of global variables it will be impossible, but if the language (like Dlang) allows local scoping of imports it's manageable... If you are very strict about what is an actual dependency or just a magic global.
The rule is that if the import can be used in other programs/code-bases you can import it. But if it's just a way to get around using global variables you should rethink the architecture.
... Yes IDE's will find the definitions in your spaghetti code-base, but then they become part of a problem loop where the code-base would be unmanageable without the IDE.

Namespaces are also a good solution to use instead of globals or magic globals. But it might become a category theory problem like where in the hierarchical structure you should put something.

The best solution of course is to keep the code base small :)

Peer to peer money (low transaction cost, high scalability) is not immediately possible without tradeoffs to decentralization.

I think the Bank of Japan might be more innovative than you give them credit for, seeing as how they were the first to deploy almost all of today's unconventional policies, including QE itself.

A low birth rate also is certainly not some immutable characteristic of Japanese culture; they had very high birth rates through most of the 20th century. It's clearly the result of economic circumstances and incentives, like the high cost of childcare and long working hours. These do seem like things that government and monetary policy cannot control directly but can certainly influence. In some respect the low birth rate might be both a cause of deflation itself and also a result.

Lastly,

> No matter how much money they print, it can't solve for an economy where there are fewer consumers and producers every year.

It might not solve the economy, but speaking strictly of inflation, it doesn't seem imaginable that no matter how much money they print it won't create inflation. They must just be printing the wrong kind of money. (As this economist explains, there are indeed different kinds: https://youtu.be/4xgHbW2A9KE )

They will. Thing is if you asked Alexa to turn the lights on and it replied with an ad, people would lose their minds.

However, if you slowly erode the experience with these "did you know" quips and other time wasters, eventually people will accept the extra annoyance. Now you have the ability to slip in ads. Why? If you replace the 5-10 seconds useless quips with an ad that could save some one money, suddenly you invert the negative aspects of ads and the outcome is positive. No linger are you subject to needless did you knows and instead "useful" ads that tell you nike is on sale.

For hobby Arduino level, the bus of note is I2C, with all sorts of devices available. Temperature sensors, accelerometers, cameras, monitor control, flash, ram and of course... other arduinos and Rasp Pis.

Of course, 1Mbit is slow but the huge amount of compatibility is pretty outstanding.

----------

Today's standard I/O might be Ethernet, as far as just randomly hooking up random compute devices together.

Faster than I2C, but not quite PCIe speeds. You can't deny the huge compatibility available though.

------

PCIe is for serious business high end. A few commodity parts are available but some stuff is just really expensive. It's a professional tool for high end fabrics.

The best of the best remains proprietary: Infinity Fabric, UPI. I guess OpenCAPI isn't technically proprietary but few things use that...

I know there are a bunch of cuda-SDR projects btw. I don't know how well they work but GPUs probably are great at Fourier Transforms and other filtering tasks.
> I don't think it really benefits anyone to come up with irrelevant strawmen.

It's perfectly relevant. Tests are used all the time to gauge mastery of a topic.

> irrelevant for gauging knowledge

It's not at all irrelevant. When you've mastered something, it doesn't take long to produce the answer. For example, the better at math I got, the faster I could answer the questions. If it takes one an hour to multiply 123x456, one is reinventing multiplication rather than knowing multiplication.

Mastery and speed are strongly correlated.

Caltech classes sometimes had "infinite time" exams. But the students hated them. There was always the temptation to do more on them, and the students wanted an end to it, as they had lots of classes with exams.

Is the use very small now? In the US, even before state-by-state decriminalization, anyone who wanted it could quite easily get it. There will be an uptick in consumption once it’s more convenient to buy and has better QC and labeling, but I’d be shocked if overall use even doubled let alone went up 100x.

Because a rich person can steal 50m and get penalized the same way someone like us would when stealing a paltry sum. Though my comment also implies the rich can easily drag out their court case and afford an army of representation so they don't have to deal with whatever sentence they are getting. Even though the sentence itself is a sham because stealing 50m dollars being punished the same as stealing 5k is obviously a sham.
Yes, the US has its own supply of silicon. Toledo, Ohio, was
called the "glass center of the world" in the 01930s because of the combination of cheap energy (natural gas), low freight rates, and the high-quality silicon-dioxide sand mined at Silica, Ohio, twelve miles to the west (10.2307/141587). The US is the world's leading producer of silica, producing about 100 million tonnes per year and exporting 4 million (https://pubs.usgs.gov/periodicals/mcs2021/mcs2021-sand-grave...), ten times the 0.4 million tonnes it imports. The world's highest purity silicon dioxide deposits are at the Spruce Pine mine in North Carolina, and these are commonly used to source silicon for semiconductors, because you don't have to spend as much money to purify it; also they are used for high-purity glassware for silicon processing (https://www.thequartzcorp.com/ https://www.wired.com/story/book-excerpt-science-of-ultra-pu... https://archive.md/BMFtO).

More broadly, it's difficult to find a rock where silicon isn't a significant component. It is difficult for me to imagine the level of ignorance that could lead someone to claim that an entire country lacked silicon resources. It could be remedied by reading the first paragraph of the introduction to the English Wikipedia article about silicon (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon).

It turns out to be true that rare earths are used for lots of essential electronics, though most components are devoid of them. Essential electronics are silicon semiconductors (silicon, aluminum, copper, boron, arsenic, phosphorus), metals for wires and traces (copper, tin, lead, silver, gold, zinc), FR4 (glass fiber and epoxy), optoelectronic semiconductors (indium, gallium, phosphorus, arsenic), high-speed semiconductors (indium, phosphorus, gallium, arsenic), inductor cores (steel, silicon, barium, manganese, nickel, zinc again, cobalt, strontium), quartz crystals, and capacitor dielectrics. Capacitor dielectrics include plastics, mica, electrolytic anodized coatings, tantalum or niobium pentoxide, and ceramics. Ceramics include the high-capacitance ferroelectrics (lead, zirconium, titanium, sometimes barium) and the high-stability NP0/C0G paraelectrics.

And this is where you finally got something right! It turns the NP0/C0G dielectrics do often contain rare earths: oxides of neodymium and samarium. There are non-rare-earth alternatives made from silica, manganese, titanium, barium, and zirconium (https://patents.google.com/patent/US5599757A/en) or titanium and magnesium (https://exxelia.com/uploads/PDF/ceramic-capacitor-non-magnet...), but the rare-earth compositions are widely adopted. Perhaps they have slightly higher permittivity (permitting smaller capacitors) or lower costs. I don't know.

Regardless, essential electronics can be made without rare earths with only minor compromises, and of course rare earths are everywhere; they could easily be mined in the US again.
This explanation does not seem too far fetched

> Libraries are a fine-tuned system that maximizes freedom of expression and ideas in a reasonably curated manner.

Is there a difference between the freedom of expression of children and of adults? If so, wouldn't parents have a right to limit the freedoms of their own children according to their families moral and religious beliefs?

I wonder if maybe the issue is that in a school setting, the librarians are operating as if the children are their only charges?

I'm entirely ignorant on these points and don't have children, so this is just a question from that perspective: Are librarians doing enough to announce their editorial decisions and to explain them to parents? Should they be required to?

Should libraries share with parents the list of books their children have checked out? Should libraries allow parents to curate a list of books they do not want their children to checkout? Is there a better middle ground here?
The brusque Mr. Fix-It for Mexico City’s accordions
This is probably an unpopular opinion, but I'm in the same boat as em-bee - I am not ok with security cameras in public[1], or with public-facing doorbell cameras, either. My thought is basically: if a camera is recording the public, the public should have access to the recording. That isn't generally the case, so I'm not ok with it.

[1] Note that by "public" I mean cameras facing streets, sidewalks, etc. I can always choose not to go into a store if I don't want to be on its cameras.
