IIRC China imports chicken feet from places like Australia at a premium, which I think started with lack of supply due to a bird flu. This required the foreign chicken farmers to dramatically improve the conditions of the chickens so that their feet were in good enough condition to sell.

All the chicken gets used, even if just turned into stock powder or fertilizer or chicken feed. I imagine the same goes for all the pig heads.
typescript is for maintainability inside midsize to enterprise scale companies with the management and hiring challenges associated with that scale (100 to 1000s of engineers), In other words Typescript theoretically solves the problem of how do you catch errors before production when all you have is an army of junior devs?
As I said, it’s an outdated analysis the point was theses things are a long way from 24/7 operations and have been for a long time.

“High electrolyzer utilization reduces the specific share of electrolyzer capital costs in hydrogen production costs; on the other hand, a higher utilization increases electricity costs, as hours of expensive electricity will increasingly be included. Hence, in order to minimize hydrogen costs, electrolyzer utilization has to be balanced with the electricity price.”

Of course the specific utilization percentage varies based on how expensive the equipment, it’s overall efficiency, and grid spot prices. We don’t actually know how expensive it is at scale so picking exact percentages is impossible.
> Building goddamn infrastructure for public transport would put us so much ahead than stupid luxury cars transiting a single person.

And he would do that how? Pulbic infrastrucutre is a political problem and I tell you a secret, rich people don't actually control the world.

And living in a country with good public transport, there are still many cars. Juts FYI.

And you need to start EV of in more expensive cars to get the needed margins to make massive investment of batteries and battery supply chain. Like literally anything else, things start expensive and get cheaper over time, I can't believe how people still complain about this with every single new technology.

> Also, did you calculate the production of batteries and their limited reusability into the picture as well?

Yes. People keep making that point as if its a good point. Because it really isn't.

> Or the not even close to renewable-only sources of electricity used to recharge the cars?

Another terrible point. You have to move both renewables and electric transport at the same time. The idea that EV don't matter and they should only be done when the Grid is 100% electric is literally one of the dumbest possible arguments. They clearly have to be done at the same time for any chance of getting there by 2050 (or hopefully before).
You can always just create a helper type that wraps the byte range and provides getter/setter functions for the individual fields. There is no need to cast the thing to an actual struct.

In current Rust, you'd do it with an unsafe std::mem::transmute - possibly using a crate that wraps this call behind a safe interface that asserts that alignment and size are correct, and that your type doesn't have any padding, etc... See for instance the bytemuck crate.

In the future, rust might gain "Safe Transmutes", which would allow you to safely transmute from one type to another under some limited conditions. See https://github.com/rust-lang/lang-team/issues/21
I agree with you and OP. Are you really going “off grid” if, to do so, you are reliant on all these things only made on the grid? I mean, even the Amish are not “off grid” if you look at their supply chain. I’m not going to be the guy who gatekeeps the phrase, but it is definitely ironic the way people use it.
The right balance is "as much human customer service as people asks for". If your tech is good enough, lots of people will prefer it in most cases. And yet, there's people who will always prefer talking to a human, and people that would rather not talk to a human, but really have to because the other alternatives have already failed. And you have to care about those cases.

In a way, I understand that being in the customer service side you will often feel people are just being lazy and asking for help without even trying by themselves. And yeah, this is a poor use of resources. And yeah, it annoys me too. But trying to solve this by making it extremely hard to get help from another human is not ok. I don't know what's ok, but this is not. It's the general debate of "if you leave your door wide open, someone is gonna thrash the inside, if you don't, that will become less likely, but you will also add friction for those that really have to come inside". And there's no such thing as safe mass surveillance, so...

I'd also be fascinated to read some of your wiki once you publish it.

In the interim, I'm very curious on two specific things.

The LoRa / arduino controlled irrigation valves - it sounds like you're doing exclusively gravity fed, and this has been a stumbling block for me. Mechanical ball valves are not too expensive, but appear to fail way too often, and in non-safe ways, to rely on. Both non-latching and latching solenoids seem to want more pressure than I can muster (perhaps 10 metres static head).

What are you doing, and would you recommend it?

Second - fruit fly control for quinces and other orchard plants?
>however, it sounds like you hope to be able to gather up all the toxic,"holier than thou" Karen types who are so corrosive to other communities

I want exactly the opposite of that, I really don't see how you came to that conclusion.

What did the average Karen achieve to be worthy of such a community?And more importantly who would vote for them to be a part of it?

The whole of point of it is for people like you or me to filter out the karens.
Can someone tell me where I can read more on what Power exactly is?
I did a prenup with my wife. Wasnt easy because im an immigrant in China and she s Chinese, so when I proclaimed that a good mariage prepares for divorce, like we do now in France where separation of wealth is a trivial matter my family did for generations, I was met with defiance.

How big a fortune must I have for being so protective :D But in the end we did it, it made total sense to her: what she works for and buys with her money is hers, and vice versa.

Now we never have money issue or anything: she bought an appartment I have no stakes in nor claim to and she loves this financial independence. If we divorce, Ill prob pay an alemony since we have a child, but we wont tear each other over splitting possession: it s dealt with since the get go.

I think it helps mariages to do that. Especially multi cultural ones like ours where there's a lot of small traps along the way.

Thank you for your reply.

> On the other hand, my wife gets great pleasure from getting new clothing. She has a lot more than I do, and still she buys more. She is genuinely excited about wearing and showing off the new clothes she bought. When she gets a compliment about them, she is very, very happy.

My wife feels the same way. We both have discussed this and have a hypothesis that the compliments for her new clothes is received more often from women (and men sometimes) who belong to the previous generations. We feel this is partially because during their lives buying clothes was more of a luxury than an everyday thing, mainly due to scarcity. Traditionally new clothes have been bought for festivals and kept and cherished for the years to come. This came to around 5-10 new clothes per year. But now we can just buy whatever whenever.

> friends aren't going to compliment the same clothes again. To get those feelings, she needs new clothes.

Another observation we have is that we have been groomed by the previous generation to like newer clothes that we arent able to appreciate the other things in our lives. My wife has a successful business which she started at the start of the pandemic, but this gets a lot less discussion than what she wears or what plants she grows at home. We feel this is also reflected by how the previous generation might have defined self worth for a woman.
There is different levels of drama and amount of contributors plus funding though.

Do I fear that the Linux kernel, which is used by pretty much all Fortune 500 companies and has a huge amount of paid devs, will die in a huge flamewar? No!

Yes, same!
Of course you should understand what you are getting into before marriage and prepare also for a possible breakup.

But I don't find this "she took my money" to be a reasonable attitude.

Both parties have responsabilities in a marriage. Maybe the other party didn't make as much money (or made no money at all), but taking care of the house and kids is work too. It also enables the person with a job to concentrate on their carreer.
I disagree. Every distro configures the packages it includes in its own way. Some favor stability and consistency, while others do not.

Every distro's Gnome config is a little different, for example. Some have a stable one with consistent keyboard shortcuts, others do not pay as much attention to it.

Same goes for other software which is included.
I agree with you. I think I should have been clearer. By mending I meant small tears or threads coming off. Not full blown tears which can just be used to clean your table.
Yes, I would say it's false.

It also misrepresents the nature of the relationship between the two powers. Germany was gearing for war against the Soviet Union, it was the sine qua non of Hitler's plan, which he even detailed in writing years before.

/me twice divorced.

The first one started with mediation. The process was highly feminized, and all the mediators were women. I felt very much that they were predisposed to the view that I was "at fault". The process failed, in that we weren't able to agree a settlement. It was useful only in that we were required to perform disclosure, and to discuss the disclosed documents in a fairly non-judicial forum; disclosure would be necessary anyway when the settlement went to court. In court, my solicitor was a woman; my wife's was a woman; and the judge was a woman.

This is the UK; Family Court proceedings were subject to very strict secrecy. The press couldn't report Family Court proceedings, not even anonymized, so basically the public had no idea what kinds of things went on in Family Court. It's become a little looser now, but only a little. It's high time for reform of UK family law.

[Edit] I advised people "don't get married". Then I went into my second marriage, which ended 3 years later. Dogfood much?
> many libraries don’t change much. If it worked three months ago odds are it still works.

LOL when 3 months is considered a long time for a library to not break users, you know something is messed up. I guess the author is referring to the JavaScript ecosystem.

As a Java/Lisp developer, I expect things to keep working essentially forever! Why the hell would they break users every 3 months?!
That's true, but a lot less convenient and I bet you'll be missing out on a bunch of optimizations if you do that.
We are not better off with CUDA working in My WSL. That keeps us confined to NVIDIA.

It suffices to have full Vulkan support. Then we can use Kompute, which is portable to any GPU, not just NVIDIA.
The exact same approach as C is doing is possible in Rust. There are pointer casts and mem::transmute(). It does require unsafe, since you must be aware of gotchas with alignment, padding, and uninitialized memory.

If you want to be fancy, there's https://lib.rs/rkyv deserialization framework that will auto-generate appropriate zero-copy code for you.

There's also serde (de)serialization framework and bincode format, which aren't exactly zero-copy, but are fast 1-copy.

Show HN: kube-green, K8s operator to reduce CO2 footprint of your clusters
Covid Booster Highly Effective Against Omicron
I would probably hesitate if someone was in a position of leadership at Meta in the past few years, had been leadership for a long time, or did their formative engineering years at Meta. I’d want to question to ensure they’ll actually push back against unethical suggestions by product people if they suggest things without knowing that those features might rely on something unethical like scraping personal data.
Hello HN, kube-green is an open source tool I've been working on recently.

# Problem

At mia platform (where I work) we use kubernetes to run our apps. At the end of the day we sign off, but our dev and preview environments stay on, consuming resources, and also - of course - money. It's an unnecessary waste, and kube-green wants to put an end to that.

# Solution

kube-green is a simple kubernetes addon that automatically shuts down (some of) your resources when you don't need them. You just need to configure a power-off/power-on schedule for your dev resources (namespaces), and kube-green takes care of the rest. In the docs you can find a tutorial to try it.

Let me know what you think, and if you have ideas for improvements, you're very welcome to share them.
Where can I buy that?
Companies like Google (and similar) are kind of the exception; I'm starting a job next week, and I had an initial video call for almost all jobs I applied for when searching. Sometimes I wrote a cover letter, often I don't. My CV is decent enough, but not uniquely "oh wow!"-type of impressive. I don't think I was filtered out of thousands of applicants in ~90% of the cases.

While remote positions can certainly receive a lot of "noise applicants", as I discovered in my last job, you can filter out half, if not more, on just a quick pass. Most companies are dealing with dozens of candidates at the most, often less. Certainly not thousands of them.

The assertion is dubious. I mean, yes, Germany imported resources from the Soviet Union. No surprise there.

Later, they also massively used Soviet slaves in order to fuel their war machine and factories. Without them, it would have been harder or impossible for Nazi Germany to continue the war. This is partly why they switched from "kill all Soviets on sight" to "extermination through labor".
If I remember correctly, the last thing I was working on was actually trying to see if GraphHopper performs better! I think I was either still trying to compile it or load a local map, I’m not sure. It has been a while since I’ve worked on this.

Also, I don’t expect it to be 100% correct everywhere, sometimes the GPS data is just not good enough or I might have traveled in a way that the map wouldn’t allow, but there were some instances I found where I thought it should’ve been able to find a match and it didn’t.
You don't get to decide what is "small features" and if you start fragmenting software into multiple releases you are going to make it more expensive for everyone, because now the company is supposed to maintain N versions because you are a special snowflake.

Or you can sidestep the whole thing entirely and use/fund/ promote Free Software. Your "small monthly amount" will go a long way and you will be free to pick and choose as you want.
Hey please have a look at my reply above. My wife would definitely love to make better friends to talk about something other than clothes/earrings.

What an unusual take to see on HN.

I love my modern frontend tools: frameworks that put state first and let me work with lots of data instead of endlessly fiddling with the dom, linters and code formatters that eliminate the need to think about whitespace and optional parens, build tools that let me target old browsers without writing additional code, intellisense that tells me what types of arguments a function accepts.

I still build a lot of things in vanilla JS, but ease of getting going is a tradeoff, because eventually I miss having prettier and typescript.
