is there a place that you can read a tldr, and what this actually "means" ?

Anyone here an expert? How safe are these planes and their derivatives if I fly frequently? IIRC, they made some updates to the new planes that uses the same engines. Also more training for the new models? Would those be enough?

Also how do you prevent using specific airplanes as a passenger. Some locations, airlines, and their nearby cities i think only uses these planes and their derivatives right? So how do you avoid that? Seems like driving for multiple days is a terrible idea. Would you prefer using multiple nonprimary airports and small engine planes?
That characterization doesn't match my experience at all. You presume we all want to go in the same direction, but that our main disagreement is about speed.

In my experience, the main source of political conflict is direction, not speed.
The problem with environment variables is that it doesn't support dynamically adding and removing monitors and changing the scale factor of an existing monitor.

Also personally I think integer (if any) coordinate scaling, and fractional font-only scaling (or fractional blurry server-side scaling) is the only way to support fractional DPI scaling without breaking the fundamental assumption that integer-aligned pixel rectangles don't overlap or partially cover pixels. Qt's fractional coordinate scaling breaks much of current theming and app painting algorithms.

"It does more than that..." I hear you mutter... yes it does more than that!

The follow-up to this article would discuss the effects of falling costs on accelerating the transition.

Massive battery installations plus solar are already cheaper than operating an *existing* natural gas peaker plant in California. Batteries that are 50% cheaper will make that true across the U.S. That could happen by 2025 if Tesla's new battery process is successful.

Battery installations' faster response to grid demand also means they can quickly undercut remaining operating non-baseline usage, making the most polluting plants even less economically viable.

Excess storage in EVs and batteries will allow flattening the duck curve to rely even more on efficient baseload and shift renewable energy production to times of demand.

Things are going to go into overdrive faster than nearly all predictions... but still not fast enough for net zero :(
The point isn’t dimness. It’s resolution (well angular, the number of pixels also doesn’t matter that much). If you want to resolve things that are close together you physically can’t separate the signals. And what is too close depends inversely on the aperature, so yeah you really need the size, for some observations.

Fun fact for dimness: We are pretty much at “we can count every photon that comes” so if you want to pick up far away things, increasing the aperature is also one of the few things you can do. But at that point you’d probably prefer multiple telescopes if you can align them properly
I tried the https://www.macstadium.com/opensource listed in the comments. Mac Mini M1 for free in the Cloud for open source developers. I went to apply and the submit button didn't work, so I switched to Firefox and found the same problem.
I find it hard to care too much at work.

The mission is normally the same: to make the founders very rich. Everything feeds into that with a layer of “we better be reasonably good to staff because its hard to attract and retain talent”.

When there isn’t supply/demand on your side then as a worker you end up like the factory workers who have to work through a tornado.

My caring comes from pride in my work and intrinsic motivation mostly, not from the mission of the company. The mission after all is to make people rich.

Thats why i find bonuses weird. A bonus is based on a metric, and that metric is probably gameable. Share of revenue is probably best if you want to pay a bonus. Or just increase salaries.
You do want one site to look like another site. I know if is fun for designers to make up their own UI's, but there are well established patterns that work well, and that's what everyone should use. This is how everything was when people built desktop applications because you used the OS supplied widgets. These widgets were built be experts in HCI. Everything worked the same in every app, and nobody thought about it or wished they were all unique. CSS and the web are the worst things that ever happened to usability.
I've helped out orgs where they had a listing of servers, but couldn't tell me what purpose, if any, they served. You have multiple entire architecture rebuilds, deprecating various parts, whilst people come and go and take their knowledge with them leaving documentation behind that is outdated enough to be more harmful than helpful.

Reality is a messy thing.
If economic growth were held constant, one would obviously prefer low (but positive) inflation. However, if there's a trade-off between the two, we'd still want to optimize for the goals of long-term growth and low employment, and to some extent equality. Controlled inflation is a means to an end, not an end in itself.
> Tearing in full screen (video) playback was not an issue for decades

Either you're being hyperbolic about the length of time or this is simply untrue.

I have been using Wayland full time for 3 years, and 3 years ago the main driver of me switching was screen tearing.

I was heavily invested in the X11 ecosystem with highly customised fontconfig's, so this was quite painful for me at the time and I definitely tried to solve the screen tearing issue. Part of it was that Linux did not have hardware acceleration in browsers, which is where I spent most of my time (especially for video playback, such as YouTube).

So those extensions didn't help, and when you get used to the buttery smooth scrolling experience of MacOS and iOS it feels quite janky going back to linux- especially when you've invested so much into making it a more beautiful experience for yourself.
I don't work for nor hold stock in any airline or aviation manufacturer, I can just adequately judge risks.

You are the one who thinks 180 separate, independent regulators colluded to protect a company at the risk of the people they are supposed to protect. Any argument against the MAX has to be against the regulators as well as Boeing itself.

Why is the Dreamliner acceptable and the MAX is not? Same company manufactured and maintains them, after all.
Any pollution should be taxed in an objective way. If some mode of transport is too dirty.. Well, raise the prices to increase viability of other options (maybe US can finally get coast-to-coast passenger rail?). R&D of better solutions suddenly becomes more economically viable.

Currently our government is planning to drop diesel-for-agriculture subsidies. Because apparently farmers should switch to electrical tractors right away :) But reducing air travel? It's a human right to go on holiday to the other side of the globe twice a year :)
All sources are downed websites that have been taken off Google. It has been covered up. The main space for it was Kuro5hin which was taken down a few years ago.

Maybe it really does cost that much to produce and support well matched HW and SW. Apple machines are kind of expensive, Windows licenses aren't that expensive but MS sells a ton of them.
Pretty melodramatic.

Companies, schools, and military requiring vaccines isn't new. I don't really know why Google doesn't want unvaccinated (remote) workers, but it's their choice. Don't work for them if it bothers you. People should have freedom of association, even Google.

Whatever you're saying is worse than the virus isn't worse than the virus. The virus has killed millions of people.

Also, the vaccines aren't experimental. The more traditional vaccines, such as J&J, use a model that has safely protected billions of people and has been around for hundreds of years.

No one cares about your private thoughts. They just want you not to drain society of resources by catching or spreading a preventable disease.

Regardless of the reason for the misspelled stickers, they are so prominent and visible that any (western?) employee to saw the boards should have noticed. At the very least, there should be some QC human or even automated visual software which would identify oddities.

IIRC, global LFP patents are due to expire in the next year or two, allowing production everywhere.

LFP is great for cheaper vehicles and awesome for grid storage (which is not weight sensitive). The vast majority of batteries in the near-term transition will be LFP due to their common materials and super cheap cost.
Except as regards gay or abortion rights, military funding, and drug policy. Right?

That's my whole point though. The dramas with the master branch were stupid, advocating for the removal of slave.c in this project, or POSIX, is stupid.
Let me give you example. I live in Slovenia. There are quite a few programmers here. You have some brand new guys that charge 15 or 20 EUR per hour, and then you have some SV veterans that came back (or work remote), and charge SV prices, and everything in between.

If you go for a quote for a simple android app (iPhone is not that popular here) you are quite likely to get more than 10x difference in quotes from various studios.

i mean the lead acid in comparison seems dirt cheap, somewhere like INR 15000 for a 200ah12v which is 2400kwh or $187~. that is like $78/kwh so paying 3.5~times more for the tech is too much right now. i mean, sure there are benefits of longer life and deep discharge but the upfront cost at good quantities is too much. so if i had to get say 20kwh, or 48400 that would be like $5500 or inr440000. compared to a similar lead acid 19200wh, 12200*8 at inr 120000 or $1500. that is a large delta. i could be wrong in these rough calculations though
I don't know, I don't necessarily have a problem with the phrase as a rhetorical device. As an example, there is no explicit law against insider trading in the United States. Congress has attempted to write such a law on a few occasions, but it's never passed. Nevertheless, if you do insider trading and are caught by the SEC, you will pay a big fine and if you were egregious enough you will go to jail.

The law that is invoked in these cases is extremely vague and broad. Basically the law says you cannot commit fraud when trading securities. The whole thing is about 50 words. Nevertheless, over the years the courts have built out a huge body of case law that details what counts as fraud, and among this case law is a lot of rules on edge cases around insider trading. Based on these rules, companies have developed things like blackout periods where employees are not allowed to sell stocks, and 10b5-1 stock sale plans in order to avoid insider trading.

So sure, these rules are not technically "law" because they were developed by judges and not Congress. But if you break those laws you'll be convicted and maybe go to jail all the same.

At the same time, I don't think that just because it is "judge made law" means that it's necessarily bad. In the case of insider trading, Congress basically punted on the issue and forced the courts to specify what does and does not constitute insider trading. It would probably be better for Congress to clearly define the rules, but they didn't so the courts had to do it instead.

Exactly. And then people wonder why everything is electron nowadays. Native UI development on any platform is pure garbage compared to frameworks in Web frontend.

I hope SwiftUI and flutter will be able to make it at least a little bit better.
Yeah, I'd expect to see it in that kind of giant-enterprise-framework system. But hopefully not so much in the kind of embedded app that might be running unnoticed without updates. Maybe that's wishful thinking.

The revolution itself was absolutely brutal, but overall had a positive effect on all kinds of emancipation.

While it ended in Napoleon, this cannot only be attributed to the revolution itself which basically ended serfdom in France and no monarch could bring that back.

Today we take for granted that a government is a servant to the populous and not the other way around, but it was the revolution that popularized that thought.

That you had insane murderers rising to the top was a side effect. Expecting the end of monarchy to not spill blood is also a pretty rosy perspective.

liberty equality fraternity - yes, the revolution was bound to happen. You have to compare the dead to those that die under monarchist and totalitarian regimes. And democracies plainly perform better, I don't think that can be disputed.
Well done promo video.
This is amazingly inspiring. Not only is it a whole end to end brand and product but it solves a problem that keeps coming up in this community, about making the web fun again.
Also focusing on unimportant, but obvious, issues takes resources away from controlling for not so obvious but critical issues. That and given the fact that checking English spelling isn't a trivial thing for Asians (as it would be the other way round) means this is a non-issue.

Will QC be improved after that? Potentially. Will there be more scrutiny around that particular supplier? I would think so. Is it a general supply chain problem? No.
OK. That's not an assumption though. I explained the reasoning behind that claim. You didn't address it.

> we can generate wealth much more easily today, thanks to technology

This is a different kind of "wealth." I certainly didn't mean to say anything against higher productivity etc.

I was saying that if someone has more wealth measured in dollars than everyone else in society, that person then has an effective power to prey upon or parasitize those others and their children. So that kind of wealth isn't a positive thing. But technology is different.
Yes, this is something that's been lost in the all the loud speaker noise.

Log4j 1.x was indeed ubiquitous at one time. SLF4J took most of the mindshare before Log4j 2.x got traction and Log4j 2.x is not the go-to Java logging solution today. Spring, for instance, defaults to SLF4J. Huge code bases that were heavily invested in Log4j 1.x often migrated from 1 to 2 due to API compatibility and these account for most Log4j 2.x usage today. That's the history as I see it.

Had most developers not done Log4j 1.x -> SLF4J and instead waited for Log4j 2.x this problem would be much worse than it is; a vast number of small, neglected services would have had to be fixed. The thought that I'm having is now that the power of compromising these logging frameworks has been demonstrated the ransomware crews are going to look very hard at them and find more large holes.
Always like hearing his thoughts, he has some other recent interviews that were good too

Where did I write that the Fed set prices? Where did you read that Omarova wanted the Fed to set prices?

Omarova wants the Fed to exercise more control on prices. The commenter I was replying to implied this was crazy despite the Fed already controlling prices. The fact that it does so through a set of different financial tools (the federal funds rate is only one of them) is not really relevant to this point.

I don't see anything about that, at that link - it provides a very different explanation for the arrest.

Nor do I see anything similar to your suggestion at any of the linked backups of K5 posts inside that link.

So again... Is there anything to confirm this claim, at all?

What if we had local vector search on our web browser history (the content as it was displayed)? That would be radical. I'm wondering why browser vendors don't scramble to create the personal vector database. It could be integrated through a browser extension to insert local results when doing regular web searches, or provide context for a speech based personal assistant. Having a neural net at hand could also prove useful in semantic filtering of webpages (hide or highlight content) and curating your news feeds.

Notebook players pushing development of high-end models for 2022
Almost all e-bike batteries sold to consumers are ridiculously overpriced[1] relative to their components. Especially those from reputable brands like Bosch and Shimano which supplies most of the better e-bike brands on the street.

It’s a combination of having relatively well-off consumers, who lack the time/knowledge to start messing with their expensive machines and lack of generic spare parts due to the likes of Bosch locking down their components, and creating specialised computers (similar to how modern cars work) so that only authorised repair shops can work on them.

The issue with reserves is that they are not money, they have no way of getting into the real economy, they just sit on bank's balance sheets. At the end of the day, its up to commercial banks to create new, spendable money. The whole reserve thing is just to incentivize them.
You can define that yourself as "type token = struct{}" or similar. In my experience struct{} occurs even less than interface{}, and it's also 3 characters shorter already, so it's not worth a builtin. I use "chan struct{}" for synchronizing and sometimes use "map[string]struct{}" for sets.
Not to be condescending, but because people have been saying for a year now or more now that the virus will rapidly evolve and any vaccines will become less effective over time because of it.

And the virus rapidly evolved and the vaccines we have became less effective to new strains, as expected. A quick deployment of vaccines would greatly reduce that risk (see: Japan currently having infections in the double digits following a rapid deployment in vaccines and universal masks, leaving little room for new strains to adapt).

The pandemic has been a long chain of some insightful people saying "This bad thing will happen if people don't take X precaution." People say that's a lie--then don't take X precautions. Bad thing happens. People get angry and say they were lied to because bad thing happened when they were told it wouldn't happen (because loads of people took no precautions). Then there's a warning about another bad thing happening, followed by denial.

Ask HN: How do you manage direct updates to databases in a production system
Hi HN! When you have a production system running, every now and then there are requirements to made a DB update because of some bug in the code, or for some use cases which were not thought of earlier. How do you handle such updates?

The common way I know is the access is given to a small number of trusted people who make the updates. Are there any other ways or best practices such that the small set of people don't end up becoming bottlenecks, apart from the potential risk of abuse of trust.
It's also a little too easy to avoid arguments you find inconvenient by refusing to examine the assumptions that underpin the position you put forth.
