Haaretz is about 50% non Zionist (looking at the regular writers like Gideon Levi, Amira Haas, most guest columns and not to mention the Arab writers). It represents the views of maybe 5-10% of Jewish Israelis and I think I'm being generous.
The NYTimes while very progressive, has a much broader base than Haaretz (at least I think. It also changed a lot lately).

Emoji was basically created to add graphics to Japanese mobile websites in the late nineties when people paid by the byte.

Back then the supplier of the websites also made the phones, and you could only access specific mobile webs depending on your carrier.

The original emoji were mostly create to facilitate online shopping for train tickets for vacation and ringtones. So a lot of these represent travel, food and landmarks.

Edit: this is for Japanese handsets and carriers. That was pretty unclear before the edit

As someone who writes fp-ts regularly: TypeScript has way too many ways to be type unsafe. Discipline and parsing API boundaries can give you typings you can 99% trust.

Discipline is very needed because of many factors, last but not least the fact that there is an abundance of type unsafe apis (e.g. JSON.parse).

The worse part isn't even that you cannot have total type safety imho, there has to be compromise for a language willing to be a JS superset. It's how difficult it is the type system when more advanced patterns are required, often the things are completely impossible.

Still, I would never do front end on a different language, and I do love elm and other type safe alternatives.

It's very strange to me that people in the decentralized web3 world mention transparency while on their next breath talk about anonymity as part of the culture. People have been anonymous in the crypto world because they've been targeted by hacker-thieves and robbed of their digital assets/currency. If you're a high-caliber software developer who creates highly-coveted DAO programs, you will be a target and consequently need to protect your identity. On the other hand, if you're a malicious actor, you also benefit by the anonymity and can introduce various measures into the DAO that advance your own personal interests at the cost of the rest. With anonymity, you avoid being held accountable by any legal system. There was a major DAO project that ended horribly bad. Were the bad actors held accountable?
I have been trying to migrate our legacy ETLs to DBT, which is mostly strings peppered around in python code.
I like the macros, templates, the visualisation tool ..... and would like to make our code as DBT compatible as possible.

However, the DB we currently use (Vertica) does not have official support. There are dependency problems installing all of DBT. All I would like to get for my first milestone is to use refs and macros and better organise the SQLs. It is good enough if it generates standard SQL, that I can run outside DBT.

My wish:

I wish I could install select DBT packages just for what I need (templates, macros, refs, dependency) and still make sure I can gradually achieve DBT compatibility. At the moment it looks like all or nothing.
This reminds me of the communists brainwashing with self-critic.

Thanks. It was a very fast last-minute hack and the frontend code's a bit buggy! Plus, we need to make some major changes to how it works since at present some of the decisions were made to promote the Chainlink integration make it much more cumbersome than it needs to be.

We briefly considered making this a completely open-source, decentralized thing completely controlled by the community. Your comment has definitely made us a bit more motivated to do that!

I'm completely onboard with the Axie thing. It's an interesting start but I think these kinds of play-to-earn models are fairly toxic.
I don't know. I was referring to this part of the article by the way:

"They can be as small as a thick iPad," says MacFarlane, "and that could make a small amount of ammonia continuously to run a commercial greenhouse or hydroponics setup, for example."

It is certainly positive that they can miniaturize their device that much. It still requires nitrogen to run. They would either need to deliver nitrogen supply or need to produce it locally in which case they would need to separate it from air which requires an additional device and process.

If obesity is a choice then Ancel Keys and his American heart association made that choice with the fat/cholesterol scare which just by sheer coincidence massively benefited the sugar industry and processed food industry.

Eating refined carbs and sugar spikes your blood glucose levels which creates an emergency response in your body by spiking insulin. Insulin tells your body to store fat or burn it (not gonna happen without exercise) which lowers glucose levels back to something normal. Over time your fat cells become insulin resistant, meaning they refuse to store more glucose/fat. The glucose will then have to be stored as fat in organ and muscle (including your heart) tissue. With high insulin your body will simply refuse to burn fat.

Now here comes the big problem. Once your glucose levels go down again (and they do so very quickly) you will feel hungry again. Eating bad food will keep you hungry, ironic, isn't it? It would be, if there weren't profit incentives.

The American heart association used to recommend a high carb low fat diet to prevent heart disease which is ludicrous. People started cutting out fat and loaded up on carbs which are far worse than fat for heart disease.

So ultimately, the problem here is the ability to fill your body with loads of calories while still feeling hungry. Processed food loaded with refined carbs and sugar makes that incredibly easy.

Most grains are bad because people don't mill their own wholegrain flour and then bake their own bread. If everyone did that we wouldn't have an obesity epidemic, we would just have a lot of people that are overweight.

Of course, baking your bread in the 21th century is highly unrealistic for most people. What are they supposed to do then? Well, an alternative would be to just give your body enough time for insulin levels to fall to the point where your body can burn fat. That's fasting and the most popular form is intermittent fasting where you eat during a 8 hour window and then eat nothing for 16 hours. The amusing thing about fasting is that it makes you less hungry, not more, over the long term.

Alternatively, you can do a high protein, high carb diet (1g carb ~ 1g protein) where the protein is supposed to make you feel full.

Ok, finally, you can do a 200 year old diet fad that is known as low carb or the modern variant called keto. If you don't eat carbs your body won't have a glucose spike and with keto your body will have to get all its energy from fat via ketone bodies. Yes, keto lets you eat your eggs and bacon while feeling smug about it.

I have noticed that a lot of people associate high fat with fries, fried food or things like milkshakes. It's kind of amusing because fries are around 30g carbs and 10g fat, a milkshake has 56g carbs and 10g fat. That's low fat, high carb food guys... That milkshake is liquid death by the way.

Yeah, type interference makes me paranoid. I'm always afraid of this kind of action at a distance. Say I have a function with inferred argument types, and I normally use it with an `int`. Then in one place I call it with a `float` argument. I worry that this will propagate back and cause a lot of variables to change to float, and thus change the semantics of my program.

Now I think inference works in one direction only (at least in languages with HM type interference), so this is a non-issue. But I'm often uncertain.

Anyway, in languages with optional typing like TS, I usually specify the types in function signatures manually to be 100% sure I understand what is going on.

Yes, it's called "cavalier législatif" ("law rider"?) and it's kind of forbidden by the 45th article of the current constitution, which states that an amendment is examined if it has a "link, even indirectly, with the piece of legislation being voted".

That doesn't prevent it from happening all the time, of course. The Conseil Constitutionnel sometimes strikes the "riders" if the law being voted is referred to the Council -- but referral isn't mandatory.

Is “faster” an issue though? Wading through the general investments theme for a year or so I understood that you have to do a titanic work to place a good bet anyway, and risk is always there. The only thing you should know is to not go all in with everything you have, but for these risky 10% you explicitly/safely allocate for it, you’re as good as an average “investor”, because both suck at it. I decided to just bet on what I personally believe in and not spend a valuable time on pointless silver bullet research. It’s different because the goal is not money, the goal is taking part in something you believe as a person, be it a technology, a sector or a company. All other risky investment schemes are just speculative gambling and don’t support any idea. Market is humans and humans don’t really change. It’s okay to think in simple terms like “x is future”, “y doesn’t go away” or “z is obvious bullshit”, because everyone does. We invest time into projects we do and we invest part of a revenue into projects we can’t do ourselves. Isn’t that the essence of investments?

Hacker News Guidelines

What to Submit
On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity.

Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic.

Seems more off topic to me. It's not new, it's political (arguably also criminal) and it's not a new phenomenon. It has been discussed dozens of times throughout the years on HN.

Copyright is there to incentivise people to create more. If you can sustain yourself from royalties from, say, works you created 20 years ago, copyright has failed us (you included, even if it provides you financial stability, because it's not encouraging you to be your best self and create more great works!).

While you do raise some interesting points about financial aspects of the situation today ("deep pocket companies expect to use... for free"), I think they are rather symptoms of the current system.

Many companies are deep-pocketed _because_ of the copyright system like it is today. But if you were able to more easily reuse work of others to build on, which would benefit civilisation as a whole, wouldn't that bring the costs and difficulty of your work down as well? The benchmark should be how LITTLE protection we can give to creators for them to continue to create!

Sure, you've invested in yourself and your business with the rules as they are, but that should not stop us from thinking of what the rules should be for betterment of human kind.

blanket statements really show off critical thinking, don't they?
The first answer is very poor and weak.

> It still concentrates on fixing those problems that we had in 1980s (making instruction set that is easy to pipeline with a simple pipeline), but we mostly don’t have anymore

This criticism is highly uninformed.
RISC-V is designed for modern superscalar processors not simple scalar pipelined processors: instructions are kept simple with little side-effects to allow simpler decoding and dynamic scheduling, instructions are designed for macro-op-fusion, C extension is designed to allow these two points above while providing a very good code density, etc.

You can argue that RISC-V's choices are bad, but you cannot argue that they are not addressing modern problems.

> ARMv8 is much more advanced and better instruction set which makes much more sense from a technical point of view.

Should we recall that the RISC-V ISA is still under construction?
Obviously, don't use RISC-V today if you want high performances.

The recent ratification of several spec's is a step in the right direction but there is still a long way to go

Well said. WPF / MVVM does indeed have a lot of drawbacks and I could probably remember every single facepalm moment when I ran into the things You write about.

But where I beg to differ the WinForms bit. Fast as it may be, it's IMO way too conducive to people mixing UI / logic together and generally producing something that pleases the great Flying Spaghetti Monster, rather than any poor coder that has to maintain / bugfix said code.

In the end I guess it always boils down to "what's Your coding style and how well can You maintain discipline in it". WPF / MVVM, full of "gotchas" as it is, does at least one thing well : it gives newcomers a decent set of rules to begin with. Not particularly useful for a one-man project, but quite handy when there's a churn of developers in some bigger organization (my case).
Intel executives soon to visit TSMC for 3nm
This is a really interesting point, and I've thought about this a little bit to try and understand why I think these are not analogous.

I would probably think that a potential rape victim who successfully defended him or herself was justified in doing so.

But there is a scale.

You can't go and stand on the sidelines at an orgy, then shoot anyone who looks at you funny. You can't go and shoot someone who offers to buy you a drink on the off-chance they might slip a roofie in it. You can't just turn around and shoot someone who is walking behind you in case they might be a rapist. On the other hand, if you shoot a guy who tries to drag you into his car, that's pretty clearly a sensible defence.

There are grey areas here too. What if a guy runs up behind you and you spin around and shoot, and it turns out you'd left your phone at the bar, and he was trying to catch up and give it to you.

> 'legal, but risky and potentially foolhardy'

This does describe both 'drinking a lot' and 'going with a gun to a riot', but I don't think it does justice to the differences between the behaviours.

Drinking too much, wearing short skirts, etc. does not imply any kind of consideration of consequences. Bringing a gun to a riot DOES. It shows that Rittenhouse was aware of the increased likelihood of violence, and had already decided that he was prepared to respond with deadly force.

Out of interest, with regards to Huber and Grosskreutz, do you believe that they were also justified in trying to defend against what seemed at the time to be an active shooter?

0.012 would be too low to be a CFR. That roughly the right number for COVID IFR (maybe a bit too low), which can be calculated in ways that make it less speculative e.g. sero-surveys. Even so CFR is also speculative because so many cases aren't reported: that's the reason IFR exists as a separate concept.

In science you're really meant to use all the data because the problem with this sort of cherry-picking is that it can go both ways. Florida removed all its restrictions and was predicted to become a bloodbath just like they predicted that for Sweden. It didn't happen, results appear to have been unaffected by the changes. Studies that look at all the data find no correlations between lockdowns and COVID mortality (but lots of correlations with other bad problems).

From the article itself,

value prop, first moved advantage, proactive technology, paralellization. Leading edge-solutions.

These are also pretty common terms in business/technology. The fact that someone cut proposition to prop may be a bit pretentious but not bullshit. The first moved looks like it is a first mover advantage and indicates that whoever was intimidated by these terms was probably not part of the “community”.( I don’t know what to think of a linguist who writes “leading edge-solution”… and “paralellization”?)These terms are not just common but also easily understood in my opinion, even outside the specific domain and less pretentious than “practice of bullshitting” when all you want to say is “bullshitting”.
