And hardly surprisingly, the “I have an inalienable right to get in your face” crowd are also very much in the overlap of the Venn diagram with the “dog pile this guy, he has different opinions to us” crowd.

There are tools that are even more powerful than Twitters kinda lame (we’ll give you just enough control so you can’t reduce our engagement metrics” ones. A certain Mozilla founder who you can’t link to from here blogged about being dogpiled by the cryptobros, and mentioned https://megablock.xyz/ as a useful tool.

Way too many people think they have some right to the time of other people. They don’t. I can choose to never hear from you or anybody else at any time, there’s no legal or moral or ethical or even politeness problems with me doing that. The way you choose to use Twitter has zero impact on the way I choose to use Twitter, and if I want to be Blocky McBlockface for any reason at all, that’s just fine. You can go and r random stranger nit picky arguments with someone else. I wouldn’t put up with it in person, and I don’t have to put up with it online. And if you’re behaving in a way that even slightly annoys me, I will block not only you, but all the people who seem to be your friends or entourage. Sucks to be them if they actually wanted to talk with me, but you know what, I get to choose who I’m friends with, and if you hang out with people who are annoying to other people in public, you get tarred with the same brush. If your friend is a jerk in a bar, expect the bouncers to eject the whole group. Especially if it’s a certain SF SOMA nightclub…

If you want to host a blog or a podcast on your own site, RSS is the only way anyone can subscribe as far as I know. Could do newsletter, I suppose.
I was trying to be generous. Perhaps I overshot.
Alcohol isn’t healthy, but other things aren’t either, so why warn for alcohol usage? Doesn’t sound like a good idea to me. Chances are that applies to all other things you mention, too.

Also, FTA: “moderate alcohol consumption has been linked to an approximate 30 to 50 per cent increased risk of breast cancer”. Even if the real number is only 5%, that doesn’t look like “only looking for drugs that have minor effect” to me.

This post makes no sense to me. You seem to really be a lawyer, and yet you think it would somehow make sense for this guy to fight an international case with potentially two third-parties over 12.5k? Most good lawyers charge $400+ per hour and want a $10k retainer.

How is this making sense to you? Is it because in the event of a win the loser would likely pay all legal fees as well? Seems to me that hiring a lawyer in this case only makes sense for the lawyer.

Unrelated, but I think two very likely possibilities here are that the guys business is failing so he decided to chargeback 12.5k worth of work to save money or that he is part of a bigger company that made a similar decision. Look up Saks 5th avenue chargeback situation. They did ~35 million USD in fraudulent chargebacks to make some free money, apparently.
When I think of adding additional people it adds stuff - now you need space for three or more people’s hobbies, preferences, etc. and when I think of renting I think smaller spaces.
Where's the lie
Two of my cousins (twins, as an anecdotal fun fact) are both astronomers. I remember one of them explaining to me how little of their job is actually looking at badass pictures of space objects but instead staring at numbers representing badass happenings in space.

The fun part to me is when they explain what they’re seeing in the numbers in layperson’s terms. One of them published on evidence of “star theft” when two galaxies pass near/through one another, how the composition of some stars signal they once belonged to a different galaxy than their current home. Fascinating to think about cosmic events as large as two galaxies passing near/through one another.
Your link has a citation leading to the source article. I would recommend you read it if you’re interested (use Scihub if you need to).

The thrust of the underlying article is looking at the exact question you’re asking, can ancient ice records that have a more limited resolution of 20-500 years be compared to centennial or millennial scale data, and can you draw useful conclusions about time periods of that range.
> My theory is this was because of some adverse childhood events I experienced, that seemed to change something in me.

Have you considered some sort of regression therapy such as hypnotherapy or if more adventurous, plant medicine? I sat next to a pretty senior FBI guy on a domestic US flight once. He was a hypnotherapist who claimed that in almost all cases they were able to use hypnosis to get information about what happened even if the conscious person was completely unable to recall any details.

In most shamanic traditions, a lot of work is devoted to bringing up and purging out past trauma. Examples include plant vapor baths to sweat things out, purgatives to release emotional trauma (often present in the stomach / belly) and plant medicines such as ayahuasca that act as both a purgative and help form new perspectives of past experiences.
Bacteria that's crossed the blood brain barrier can affect behaviour.

In European woman, the most common bacteria in a woman's vagina's is Lactobacillus largely due to the milk product consumption in their die.

However whilst Western medicine considers Lactobacillus to be a probiotic, other cultures who do not consume milk products in as large a quantity have different bacterial profiles in their vagina's.

Japanese people claim to be able to smell gone off milk oozing from the pores of westerners.

The presence of a particular strain of bacteria (whose name I dont have to hand right now) in a woman's vagina will also predict whether they have freckles or not.

Biology is a fascinating subject and very much open to debate.

Catchy title. Empirical models, while useful, can't explain the how or why of a system. Having machine-learning (err, AI) models is great, but there's no idea of what will happen with edge cases or novel situations. Such models can provide data which augments experimental data.

Theories, ideally, can be used to propose new experiments. Data-only models can only interpolate.
No, I'm looping through all possible guess and targets and grouping possible targets by matching scoring. Then I select a guess on which one has the smallest set of possible words afterwards. For example, "SERAI" seems to be a good first word. The reason why is that even if the adversary selects the worst-case scoring of (in this case, it would be no green, no yellow), there's only 168 remaining words it could be.

And you know, from random strangers, who gives a fuck even if their facts are correct? You owe them precisely nothing for their “contribution” to your discussion.

Will update the article and write in more detail about fan noise and heating. But in short:

- Trackpad is decent. However, as some others have mentioned, it can be a bit touchy. It's happened a few times that I'm typing and I accidentally rest part of my right thumb on the trackpad and that changes the insertion point inadvertently. Not a big issue. As a matter of fact, it's more an indication that I need to correct my hands posture for better ergonomics.

- Bluetooth. It's pretty stable. I have a Bluetooth mouse and Galaxy Buds connected and they work flawlessly. I'll try more devices.

(edit: added Galaxy Buds over Bluetooth)
Yeah, I provide an Atom feed for my blog. It has about ~100 subscribers across a few different RSS subscription services, and I get a few hundred independent RSS client requests a week. Don't get me wrong: it all works really well, and I like providing it! But it's a very small fraction of my overall traffic, and other bloggers I've spoken to have indicated the same.
This was really funny! But is the majority always right...?

I’m guessing they are trying to appeal to speculators who are gambling that the value of the property will increase. The business model might resemble a pyramid shape.
Does that mean TeX and ACP delayed the revelation of thoughts about compiler technics by 40 years and he thinks his original thoughts to start the whole thing with are still relevant and at least partially not published/discovered?

Given what he did for computer algorithms (and doc type setting) this makes me really curious about his views on compilers.
Doesn't it seem strange that Snyk is creating a vulnerability report for this + labeling it a DoS? DoS is something someone executes against a target, in this case a package had it's functionality (purposefully) altered. That's like calling changing the API of a popular library DoS, because now application authors need to change their code/use a different library...

Fittingly enough, all four solutions for this particular issue all goes back to Snyk, as seen in the bottom of the blog post. Seems like they are labeling this a DoS to justify being able to publish something in their database and blog.
Is it impressive? I would've thought this is exactly what we expected. Actual artists are off making stuff they can sell, and 99.99% of them don't know what an NFT is. Meanwhile there's a whole community of teenagers on the internet who don't make anything but do know about NFTs.

If you run the numbers on "artists who know/care about NFTs" vs "Idiots on the internet gullible enough to buy into anythin" I think 10,000:1 is generous.
> Yes, but AFAIK, those are heavily tested or audited in some manner. That's different from including code written by randos in your app that they can remotely change at any time.

It seems like the problem here is more cultural than technical, specifically that the JavaScript community has fully embraced packages that are "written by randos" that are "wrappers around three-line Stack Overflow answers."

I use packages, but I wouldn't use any that are developed by a rando with no reputation or "institutional oversight." An important part of choosing to use one is evaluating the maintainers.

Does the JavaScript ecosystem have anything like Apache Commons? I'm guessing not, but it probably should.
Agreed with the look ahead. I’m constantly doing that whether doing a typing test or typing my thoughts. (Currently capable of sustaining 170+ wpm over a minute).

The simple answer is that you eventually have to do thruster burns to dump momentum from reaction wheels; they can't keep absorbing momentum forever. It also needs the fuel to adjust it's orbit every so often and keep it on station.

Ask HN: Does anyone on here think climate change isn’t a problem?
I’m absolutely convinced it is, but curious what the latest and greatest is in arguments that it’s not something there should be a massive, urgent, global scramble to mitigate.

Also - does anyone have anything like a holistic overview of why climate change is a problem, how it can be slowed, and what it’s impact will be?

Thanks in advance!

In all these stories the experiments end up costing a ton in reputational damage that’s difficult to qualify. When a product becomes crap I don’t ever expect it to improve so they loose me forever as a customer. It’s better to experiment with quality in a controlled environment.

This is why you pin all dependencies and upgrade (and test) when it's convenient for _you_, not when the author pushes a new version.
“Proper education” is student, culture and even teacher dependent. There is no singular best practice. So many of the sit down, shut up models of education in other countries produce students which routinely trounce US students in math and science. At the same time, so does Finland.

My point above is that the belittling is a major part of the problem. You want to denigrate an entire profession, sure, but it has consequences, something we're seeing as experienced teachers leave the profession.
Maybe you should stop. Let the system fail enough such that the pain that you're preventing will start to affect the people who can actually fix things. If you can't fix it, let the wheel squeak. You're not the parent or savior of those children, so don't allow your high levels of empathy and life choices to be exploited by bureacrats. They know exactly which buttons to push and how to manipulate the type of people teachers are.

Stop playing the game where you spend money to cover up incompetence or corruption. Don't be a reliable patsy. Some problems only get better if you force the ones responsible to fix it.

Use a classroom to audit their own supplies and needs, and see where money intended for education actually goes. The information should ask be public.

It’s not over. The whole reason we fight in debates is to convince people to join our side or make sure people on our side stay convinced. It is a never ending battle and only the dead have seen the end of wars.
For airliners, the airplanes are retired after a certain number of cycles. The 757 was designed for 62,000 flying hours, if I recall correctly. It's scrap after that.
