There is already a circular economy for cars: they get crushed and the metal is recycled.

The same is going to happen for EV batteries in the next decade, they will use either hydro or pyrometallurgy to get lithium and other metals out.

Very few of the known lithium reserves are developed. More of those will be developed in the next decade. We are still at the point where people will find more resources when they try harder. Lithium is earlier in the game than conventional oil.

Remember all the talk about Hubbert’s peak circa 2000? They perfected hydro fracking and discovered enough tight gas and oil to completely change the market. Resource depletion is a real problem but so far solutions have outrun problems.
Wisk | High-Integrity Embedded Flight Software; Autonomy Path Planning, Perception and Flight Management Software | Remote | Full Time | https://wisk.aero/careers

We’re looking for a senior engineer to focus on the flight management and behavior logic for our self-flying taxi. You will design, build, and test the algorithms which fundamentally control the high level intent of the vehicle. You will develop logic to manage responses to contingency scenarios, avoid hazards, and perform autonomous landing approaches. You will develop architectures that support the concurrent execution of various vehicle responsibilities. You will leverage modeling and simulation to validate safe, reliable, autonomous behavior. And of course, you’ll test what you build in flight.

It totally is. Without it, you cannot apply shading for example. Or make caricatures. Or literally do anything in drawing that would be considered a normal routine expectation from an artist. I’m speaking about a specific skill here, not emulating Jackson Pollock or doing something crazy in the art world. Talking about strictly the ability to draw well.

If the thesis is correct then this could be a way to find out if other viruses are jumping between humans and mice. Eventually we might be able to build a map of all host-to-host jumps and get a true picture of where disease resides in the world and how it spreads.

Long term vs short term.

Long term they’ll be worth more, but short term prices will go down.

No one sees prices really go down because that could trigger another ‘08 style collapse. Banks are less leveraged, but there’s a lot of people with mortgages too big for their sake.

This. The people with influence in both parties benefit from the status quo, enjoy their privilege, and only want things to change from a distance.
It is amazing that this happened in the modern day. Paraphrasing the article:

Driven by a desire to be powerful and respected, and buoyed up by Stalinist ideas about gaining prestige through scientific acumen, Elena turned to the field of chemistry. Mircea Corcioveci, one of the top scientists at the Institute, eventually discovered that Elena "didn't know what a chromatograph was and didn't recognize the formula for sulfuric acid," which was "taught to first-year chemistry students." Nevertheless, on December 8, 1967, she obtained a PhD in chemistry after defending her thesis on the "Stereospecific Polymerization of Isoprene on the Stabilization of Synthetic Rubbers on Copolymerization." Romanian law decreed that doctoral candidates had to publicly defend their theses. To avoid the public defense of a thesis that she likely did not write, the law was changed so that she only needed to submit a written defense. Ultimately, she became Chair of the National Council for Science and Technology and controlled all scientific research in the country, although she knew nothing about it. "We were told: no paper can be written or published, no conference delivered without Elena Ceausecu's name appearing in first place...We were producing papers with words which, we knew, she could not pronounce, let alone understand." She was not even very bright—in fact, almost illiterate—but, through devious and fraudulent means, she managed to become one of the most lauded chemists in the mid-twentieth century.
I honestly believe my friends aren't motivated by keeping their house price up, they just don't understand simple supply and demand. I tried explaining rent controls don't work, they even agreed but said "something must be done". Rent control is the easiest solution to justify and implement. I really wish supply and demand was taught in schools.
Sometimes I tutor high-schoolers in math and physics. I love it and if it payed better I would do it full time.

Average websites goal is now to keep you on them as long as possible. According to some metric folks, the longer you stay on a website the more money you spend there. Linking to another website destroys that metric.

Also if you are going to make a purchase somewhere, any website would try to get a cut of the money you spend by actually sending referral links to the product. So small websites that do not allow this service will not get linked so much.

On a metalevel it is thus that links or connections between items are information. Information is money. And as soon as that became evident links and connections also became more scarce.

This. Living in a city with this problem, I struggle to imagine a significant causal relationship between housing prices and homelessness. The people I see in tents are not priced out. Magically roll rents back 20 years and they would still be largely unaffordable to this crowd.

If you honestly think the protestors tried to overthrow the government, how come not one of them brought an assault rifle along and the large majority was totally unarmed? Worst coup attempt ever.

The point of total nuclear war is not to declare a victor anyways. States that can ensure MAD have a nuclear deterrence based on irrationality, of which you cannot exactly reason rationally like this.

FWIW. if your city has blast doors at 100m+ depth you are for sure joining the nuclear exchange.
I'm fine destroying well-paying jobs in order to work remotely. If the office-jockeys of yesteryear weren't so dead-set on destroying blue-collar jobs and the comfort of living a lower-class lifestyle, I might feel a bit of remorse tearing down your facade of a job. But you didn't, you kept squeezing wages and making poverty into an inescapable cycle so you could enjoy a $2 burrito before tips.

Your "capital class" has been dead since the iPhone released. The moment people started spending a tangible amount of their income on digital assets, the middle class lifestyle died. Enjoy your funeral, but don't act like you're defending anything that other people care about.

Cameroon did have a spike about 3 months ago, but it wasn't as big as previous spike there, and died out in about a month. Which doesn't make it nothing, but it would suggest it's not as significant as Omicron.
This is important question, because projects will likely enjoy cheaper funding funding in future if they get labeled as environmentally healthy.
But what would you install them on? (aside an emulator of course). As ROMs they seem more a part of the hardware than the other stuff there.

But hey, it could just be lack of interest on the part of their audience. It looks like they've got an image of the atari dos disk, and gem (for msdos albeit) but not the TOS ROMs... /shrug
If I understand correctly, you're saying you'd create an exclusive webring, but the rule to joining is that you have to Disallow: Google, Bing, etc. in your robots.txt file. That sounds outrageous, but speaking as a content creator, I wouldn't be giving up much. My blog gets about 3% of its traffic from search engines. I have no idea who these visitors are or what they searched for, since browsers no longer send referral links. If a webring offered me the benefit of positive regularly engaged community, then having my blog part ways with search engines would be a no brainer. That is after all the Facebook model, except tailored for the open web. Believe me when I say that we bloggers are waiting to be rescued.

Hi HN. I'm Mads.

I did my PhD working on Bohrium (https://github.com/bh107/bohrium). Bohrium is a framework that sits on top NumPy and intercepts all calls. When you have a side-effect in your Python code, Bohrium will take over and JIT-compile an OpenCL kernel, so your NumPy can run on your GPU. This is all done automatically, so all you need to change is `import numpy as np` to `import bohrium as np`. For Bohrium I also created a Ruby frontend, so you can use custom `BhArray` to JIT-compile OpenCL kernels from Ruby code, run when you have a side-effect. Besides that I also created a CSP (Communicating Sequential Processes) gem for Ruby called Emit (https://github.com/omegahm/emit) This outperformed the current Python implementation in speed.

After my PhD I've been working as full stack developer multiple places, where I've mostly been using Ruby for backend and React for frontend. My latest position was a Tech Lead position where I was in charge of a small team of four developers.
Thanks. It makes sense. I will try your method and see if I can offload some RAM!
I thought fabs were mostly closed loop at this point, and occasionally just need a small sip of water after the initial fill.

Lithium batteries don't use up lithium. After its lifespan, the lithium is still there, so the battery will (hopefully) be sent to a recycling facility where the lithium is recovered and used to build a new battery.

In that sense lithium is totally unlike oil.

Seek out a therapist. Do a once-a-week session. It will help you a lot. There are also online systems that are more group based, where you run through sessions but have guides online that can help - i found those great for me to help find ways to cope with things - not as being depressed but avoiding depression in everything else that is going on. (I have a bi polar kid who attempted suicide)

I'm in tech, been in similar shoes. Besides therapy, I found going for walks to be exactly what I needed. Don't do ANYTHING but walk.

After you get a few walks, don't bring music but instead listen to an audio book of a book that you have been itching to read/finish. Take as LONG as you need to finish it - it's not a race. But sooner or later, you may find yourself walking more to listen to that audio book and you may find your spirits lifted when you stop to pause and live in the moment on the walk.

Walking can also change you from those doldrum times of floating in and out of work to busting out productivity a lot more - because it gives you the freedom and headspace to have clarity.

Whatever you do, don't fall into the "manage it all" trap. Humans and our brains are complex systems, we have to give them space to work. Buying shit to track your day, track everything, graph everything, be extremely detail oriented just adds anxiety into the mix. Give yourself room and space.

Listen to music that feeds that room and space. I've grown to love to mess with synthesizers because the sound is full of space and dimensions and movement even if it's stupid simple and you can get it all growly and fun - but warm

being a tech guy i see so many people burn out more because they buy a smart watch to track stuff and smart phone to track stuff and they try and journal everything and review everything - but that becomes more work and distracts you from the headspace we all desperately need.

as for going home, I'd start with a visit (when safe to do so). If found out that home is what i make of it and living where my family lived wasnt home anymore and there was nothing wrong with that - but i absolutely love visiting my family whenever I can and that was the hard thing with holidays this year - not doing that again. I had a potential covid exposure and my dad is mid 70s so i didn't want to risk being the one to spread it.

I would absolutely support stronger regulation. Unfortunately, I don't believe the Overton window will be there in the United States for some time.

I lived in Nigeria, Morocco, and Uganda.

Uganda is probably one of the most beautiful places on earth. Its political situation is still quite unstable, but the climate, landscape, and wildlife are second to none.
If limiting the spread of 'misinformation' is their intended goal, it seems like they would have a bigger impact by just toning down their algorithmic recommendations. Leave the videos up and available to search, and stop doing hyper-optimized recommendations designed to increase 'engagement'.

Of course, that would lose them advertising money, which is probably why they didn't go that route.
Do you have any information about the Los Angeles office? Is any engineering located there? I realize that the office is very likely closed at the moment, was wondering for when things open back up.

Difficult to search for information regarding Reddit, but it appears the office is in Santa Monica. Would you happen to know the address?
I recently purchased a used Yamaha SW-45 subwoofer for 30€. I asked the seller if for an extra 10€ he could include the RCA cable, to save me a trip to the nearest mall / Amazon locker. He tried to sell me a 40€ "high quality" cable...
I would say the problem is we give government the power to solve the problem, we expect the government to solve the problem, while electing idiots to government

I also suspect many believe the solution to this problem is to "stop electing idiots" when in reality the solution is to stop expecting government to solve the problem, and recognize we should remove the power from the government and allow private actors to solve it

I like the actual Bored Apes. I think they're well done and carry a lot of cool factor. Not as big a fan of the derivatives (dogs, mutant apes) from the same team. And I don't like the lazy knockoffs like the linked thread purchased at all.

But it's all down to taste, which definitely varies from person to person and group to group.
That is until Spotify take it down, then no one can listen to it... Regardless of whether it is anti-vax nonsense or not.
> There can be and there is, especially in cryptocurrency.

Consider ransomware, for example. When a company pays up, the ransomware vendor ends up with a huge chunk of cryptocurrency they need to launder before converting it into cash -- and shuffling it through both real and fake sales of NFTs could be a highly effective way of doing that.
Google has 28.9% share, Facebook 25.2%, and Amazon has 10% and growing fast. Not a monopoly, and the incentive is there: if search results are consistently bad, people will stop searching as much, and revenue and market share decline.
> Apple IS designing its own CPUs. They have been designing their own CPUs since their A4 processor.

That is not quite true, the A4 is an internal SoC design but commonly "CPU" in an SoC context will designate the cores (the µarch). A4 used a standard and pedestrian Cortex-A8 there.

The A6 is where they started designing the cores in-house (to very impressive and pretty universally praised results, especially for a first iteration), following which they straight nuked the entire field by releasing the first AArch64 core in A7.
The audio market gets mocked all the time, for good reasons such as this.

So, I’m going to draw a parallel with another market which I believe is very similar, IMHO of course, and that is the Espresso market. There are grinders and machines for several $1000s and I’ve been curious if people are indeed able to tell the difference or is it just that it has become a passion/hobby for many.
>Enabled downvoting on results, like YT videos.

you mean the dislike counter they just disabled to force people to sit through more low quality content and pre-roll ads to claim increase in platform engagement and viewership?

The only thing matters is revenue and Google had increases in acquisition costs in prior revenue reports. Expect to see the data points for the latter metrics to be highlighted on the earnings announcement, and a record quarter for YT coming out of the change.
