Quote from earlier linked article explaining why it took so long after the scandal to do this:

> The transition to a post-Libor world would not be painless. Remember those $190 trillion of Libor-linked derivatives? Hardly any of those instruments — essentially contracts between two parties — provide a workable option for what to do if Libor were to vanish.

> In a worst-case scenario, banks and their customers would effectively have to negotiate how to end Libor-based contracts over the phone, said Darrell Duffie, a Stanford University finance professor. For a sense of what is at stake, Lehman Brothers was a party to more than 900,000 derivatives contracts when it went bankrupt in 2008, according to research published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

> Here are some of the key features expected in WiFi 7:

* Up to 40 Gbps link

* Bandwidth up to 320 MHz and beyond

* Order of modulation up to 4K-QAM

* Up to 16x spatial streams in MU-MIMO

* Enhanced Distributed Channel Access (EDCA) with 802 TSN (Time-sensitive Networking) features for real-time applications

* Latency below 5 ms suitable for gaming

* Enhanced OFDMA for better resource allocation

* Multi-link operation favorable for both tremendous data rates and extremely low latency

* Channel sounding optimization to reduce overhead

* Introduction of HARQ (Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request) which “exploits the information from the previous tries. The receiver combines the signals from several transmission attempts, which increases SNR and, consequently, the probability that the receiver decodes the packet correctly.”

* Non-orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) to increase peak throughput and improve efficiency by making an access point (AP) serve multiple stations/clients (STAs) simultaneously in the same baseband by allocating portions of the total transmission power for each STA

* Multi-AP cooperation with techniques such as coordinated spatial reuse (CSR) or coordinated OFDMA (CO-OFDMA) in dense deployments

> MediaTek says products with Wi-Fi 7 are expected to hit the market starting in 2023, but the development timeline from the May 2020 document above expects the final amendment to occur in May 2024. I’ve seen companies launch products based on draft specifications before, but obviously, there’s a certain level of risk as the products may end up not being fully compatible depending on how the draft specifications are amended.

Based on this information, I imagine we should look for Wi-Fi 7 on phones and laptops sometime in 2025? Anyone reading this have a Wi-Fi 6E access point? Can you please share your story?
At some point, alcohol was listed as a performance enhancing drug in archery because a moderate amount is supposed to steady the aim. It is still banned in many competitions for that reason, and not just because drunk shooting is a bad idea.
> If you disagree with the statements above, i'd ask you to consider that China and her allies, Iran, Turkey, North Korea and Pakistan suddenly moved Radar equipment and denial of airspace missile batteries to Mexico, Canada and Cuba tomorrow. What would the United States consider such an act to be? Defensive?

We don't need to imagine it. Just look at the Cuban missile crisis, which can trace its roots by putting nuke-tipped missiles in Turkey and Italy, stone's throw from the USSR.

When the USSR parked its nukes 90mi away from the US, US committed an act of war by blockading Cuba, wordsmithed it to a quarantine; dropped signalling depth charge on a Russian submarine in international waters, which had nuclear-tipped torpedoes. The world's lucky that someone senior on that boat vetoed the launch.

I'm not saying one has to like Russia for its moves, but the west should at least look at itself in the mirror for once. Admitting Ukraine and Georgia into NATO amounts to blocking off the warm water port for Russia. That alone should explain why they would react against it.
If you live outside the city, you basically are. In my home town, transportation is limited, eg a bus in the morning and one in the afternoon, both which can be late, and the stops are kilometers apart and the sidewalks are shitty. So when I'm there, I take my car everywhere, as does everyone else.

But when I lived in a big city, the opposite happened: parking was expensive and the traffic sucked, so I always took the bus and subway.

Let's not make blank statements about transportation, as it differs so much from one place from another.
Just curious, what is the purpose of having the center of population?

With a chimney you use olive oil on newspaper?! Anyway enough about fire starting. To be honest if you’re having fun with campfires like once in a blue moon and don’t really know what you’re doing, a fire starter can be an okay crutch, but if you want to go camping often to have fun it’s much easier and cheaper to just use the wood and maybe a bit of paper. But that’s enough hijacking this thread to fire starting.

People come reliant on alcohol and can’t do it without it. It becomes a prerequisite not an enhancer. That sounds more parasitic than anything else.
I can think of some recent experimental treatments recommended by the medical establishment that appear less effective than advertised and the long term effects unclear.

Ask HN: Sending mails for my children accessible in the future (
Some time ago I read about the idea to create an email account for small children and write them regular mails that they can read in the future (For example when turning 18). Additionally you can invite grandparents and other people to write for the child to get it in the future. Now I would like to have something like this for my children. Thinking about this showed me that there might be no good solution or that I am overthinking it. Here are what I was thinking about:

1. Using my own server. I have my own server where I can create a mail account and collect all mails. Its private and has "unlimited" storage if we speak about text and some photos. Only problem is, I might die before the children reaches the age. The contract for the server ends, all data gets deleted and the child may never get the mail. I would have to write a will and define how to handle the server. Combined with need to chance software, updates and chanced credentials I see the real risk that the documentation does not allow the designated handler to give access to my child. This seems like a worst case scenario. Dying before the child is of age and losing all the stuff I wrote form him/her.

2. Using a freemailer. I could register an account at gmail or similar and collect the data there. The credentials are handled by me and are stored in my will to pass along if I die. If the service goes out of service I can backup and move the data. This solutions sound good, but I feel uncomfortable deciding for my child that this much and highly personal information is stored at someone processing it to make ads.

3. Using a specialized app like timespring. I found one app that offers a service to collect data and give access in the future. https://timespring.com/features/ While I am comfortable paying for such an service it will be 2038 before I plan to give the child access to the system. This is longer that the iPhone is around so it seems unsafe to trust in an App being available 16 years in the future. Additionally it would be much harder for my parents to send data via this app.

Writing and thinking about that matter showed me again how little prepared we seem to be in the context of digital heritage. So if you have any other ideas to organize your digital stuff for the people after you I would be interested. Especially if there is some kind of PW management where I can define some elements that will be send to somebody else If I do not log in after x days.

I worked at a European bank ten years ago, and libor was at least one leg of effectively every product offered.

Interest rate swaps, credit, loans, fixed income, exotic derivatives, CDO, whatever.

You have to hedge the interest rate risk somewhere or get stuck with huge collateral requirements/XVA.

Cryptocurrencies don't solve the problem since they're largely traded on opaque exchanges and other l2 solutions even less trustworthy than the libor cartel.
Something must have clearly gone wrong with the install (or perhaps there is a minimal install version...?) If this were Gentoo, I would suggest that perhaps the "doc" USE flag was not enabled?

> For example, I could say that the people who invaded the Capitol on Jan 6 were terrorists. Hundreds have been charged, some convictions are coming down, none of which are terrorism. Would it be fair for me to say they are convicted terrorists?

If they're convicted of planning an attack on civilians then yes. How many instances of this happening do you know of?
Holy moly! I'm amazed you put up with that. I would hardly call my SMS messages mission critical. But it'd be a nightmare for me to be constantly making excuses to friends about why I was appearing to ignore them.
Unlikely. A) I never worried about it, B) The effects last into my sleep.

The effect is also most pronounced in my sleep since my heart rate is usually quite consistent, it varies like 2 bpm most nights. But if I look at the last night I drank, my average heart rate is +10 from baseline and varied by 20 bpm during my sleep.

The data is crystal clear.
Same. I have a vanilla Emacs install and the Lisp Intro doesn't seem to be there.

You can find it online though:

Edit: I'm on an Ubuntu derived distro, so this may be the issue:

https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/48211/emacs-manual...

Yeah, at least for me that was the problem. This fixed it:

CheriBSD – FreeBSD for Cheri-MIPS, Cheri-RISC-V, and Arm Morello ISAs
That high an effect? I don't think so. I also monitor my heart rate and anxiety doesn't cause nearly as big a heart rate increase as alcohol.
No we must vaccinate with at least 3 more shots. Pfizer jets doesn't come cheap you know.

The best AI dog fighter in existence is an Aim-9X sidewinder. Short range air to air missiles with helmet cuing systems have gotten to the point it's essentially a see to kill environment. Thrust vectoring, 3D IR mapping, countermeasure rejection, optics, laser fusing. Weapon engagement zones are sometimes measured less than the warhead's effective radius. Absolute insanity.

However, there are some serious advantages to having an AI autopilot for dog-fights. Stuff like failover for G-lock (pilot loses consciousness during maneuver) and jinking to avoid shots makes a great deal of sense. Dogfight assist for gunnery would also be pretty sweet. Something similar to the gun PAC on a warthog maybe where you hold secondary trigger and instead of stabilizing the jet it gets the nose on the lead target indicator.

Another case is when drone fighters are intentionally sent out clean (no missiles) to avoid an incident and enter a merge unexpectedly. Also there could be cases where large numbers of cheap junk fighters are sent against small numbers of expensive fighter drones. Not enough missiles for 5-1 ratios, but guns for the 5th jet may make the difference.
I feel like this thread is brigaded to death. The fact of the failure is clear. But the one constant in all of these arguments is to introduce uncertainty and attempt to shift blame.

I think it is an odd choice to blame the consumer in this scenario since customers just one state over did just fine throughout this ordeal.
Sure, interstate speedlimits are somewhat about gas mileage. But I'm going to need some citation from you that a 25mph speedlimit in a residential area is about environmental impacts and not safety.

Sure the autobahn isn't a meat grinder, but there's a difference between safe and unsafe, and unsafe doesn't mean everyone dies.

Regardless, doesn't matter if the regulation is for safety or environmental protection, being "anti-fun" isn't an argument against them.

another vote for cascadia code :)

(someone should do a hn poll on programming fonts.)
I had to modify the original title ("Land Requirements for Utility-Scale PV: An Empirical Update on Power and Energy Density") slightly to fit HN length limits. This is an open-access article.

Compared to a widely cited study of photovoltaic solar farm land usage from 2011 [1], the authors find that "the median power density increased by 52% for fixed-tilt plants and 43% for tracking plants from 2011 to 2019, while the median energy density increased by 33% for fixed-tilt and 25% for tracking plants over the same period. Those relying on the earlier benchmarks published nearly a decade ago are, thus, significantly overstating the land requirements of utility-scale PV."

The improved energy density of newer solar farms has policy implications for state level decarbonization plans, particularly in states with limited space. Solar PV is able to generate more electricity per hectare than previously estimated due to improved panel-level generation (higher panel level efficiency, better real-world panel performance) and more densely packed array layouts.

You're already giving a bad example to your kids by drinking alcohol.

That's fine. They'll grow up and decide what to do. If they'll drink themselves senseless there must be a bigger problem than seeing you drink alcohol in small quantities.

I certainly am not doing all the mistakes I saw my father's doing and I hope my kids will grow up to be responsible adults which will make their own decisions.

I never lived in a place where weed was legal but for a couple of years I used it as an antidepressant and as a way to unwind. I bought a vaporiser (the healthiest, quickest and hassle-free way to absorb weed - very little smell lingering and you're not smoking paper) and vaped nearly every evening (after kids bedtime) and it was great to survive a hard period of my life.
After 2 years I didn't feel the need anymore and I stopped. I can't be bothered to go to onion to buy weed anymore and just drink a beer every once and then when I want to unwind - but if weed was easy to buy I'd definitely buy it and treat it like I treat beers.
I'm glad I didn't use alcohol in the same way, merely for the extra calories and for the liver damage.

Still, there is a good reason you're fine drinking a beer in front of your kids but you should avoid vaping in front of your kids - and that's merely to avoid exposing them to passive vapour.
It is interesting that two smallest shifts in mean center of population are 2010-2020 and 1910-1920.

The largest shift appears to be 1850-1860 - perhaps due to the California Gold Rush?
My best typing experience, typewriters manual or electric, or computer keyboards, was the IBM Selectric. Second best was on an AT&T 3270 (!?!) with a mechanical clicking keyboard, similar to original IBM PC, but even better. I mean using a 3270 isn't great fun but the typing was great.
There are unlockable NFT's where you get access to what is inside. Think of a JPG with the words "My favorite Color" in a black font on a white background. That's it, and that's all any non-owner sees. Only the owner is able to unlock and see what it is. Everyone else knows my favorite color is inside that NFT, but they don't know what the color is.

It's an overly simple example of course, but now carry that out to trade secrets, future stock prices, gambling picks, private videos etc. The "art" on the outside isn't really relevant. It's just an indication of what it is you're owning. It might be just that art, or it might be something else depending on the contract. You're seeing the box, not what is in the box. You have to own it to get the contents of the box.
Completely calm for me. HR bpm ~55 to 60. Involuntary homeostatic systems (breath, heart rate, mind, muscles, sensory systems semi-on-offline, stable body temperature, especially temperature) are synced and calmly clocking along.

It does, however, take ~9.5 hours to get the pillow to behave to tolerance.

As for terrifying? Well, there's always real life to look forward to, and terrifying is an appropriate reaction to that impending doom, but I hope this isn't an everyday for you. You could have a sleep disorder, night terrors, PTSD, neurology problem, etc.

Since it's been around since 2003, I'm curious to know how many projects out there are using it. Would be great if there are some open source examples available as well. I mostly stick to Python, so I'm most familiar with the Google docstring format[1], but seeing as there are other ones[2] as well aren't those usable for other languages too? Seems to be the case of yet another "standard", though since this is such an old project I may out of my depth in saying that.

I remember reading somewhere that the TypeScript devs considered const enums to be a mistake and recommend against using them. I don't remember why, though.
So the only thing I can find is that for emacs before emacs 21 it was not included (I didn't know that, I guess I installed it through my package manager or some other means back then and forgot). After that, it is included by default. But you can check to see if your package manager includes a separate `emacs-lisp-intro` or similar package. Short that, you'll have to download it from the site and install it manually to see it in emacs or just use the HTML version.

This is how Pine has always operated and it has worked for them. Other places don't make you start from square one - and it is years before you get anything because of all the tim they spend getting all the parts ready.

Arsenic is in all kinds of foods, if you made the claim "no amount of arsenic consumption is safe", you would be arguing that basically everyone's diet is unsafe. What does that even mean?

To take the claim "no amount of alcohol consumption is safe" seriously would mean you shouldn't eat bread, which contains a small amount of alcohol.

In a past life I spent many months deep in this library. There were some good things about it. Documentation is decent, performance was good, and their support was great.

But still, it was a massive hindrance not to be able to dig into the library source when needed. I spent days grokking decompiled library code in order to get done what needed getting done.

When it came time to grow the team, I couldn't in good conscience ask new hires to invest in learning all of this proprietary bespoke SVG-like-but-different ecosystem, knowing it would be frustrating and learnings would likely not be fundamentally applicable to other future endeavors.
For what its worth, this analysis only looked at studies where the placebo was a saline solution.

My version of that dream has me unsure where the class meets (I have a syllabus but can't decipher it somehow) and not sure if I have the right textbook for the class. I keep trying different classrooms but they all just allow me to enter without a hint of whether I'm in the right one.
The problem of using all-encompassing filters to secure applications is they are crap. Take for example something using Bernstein chaining where permissions are properly separated for each process, with pledge you can restrict access, with global filters it still allows the highest privilege.
That doesn't stop people from making assumptions.

If you find yourself near Slade, KY, you might find Miguel's worth a visit[0]. Their list of toppings and sauces is extensive, in part reflecting that it's anything in the kitchen that might reasonably be a pizza topping, salad component, or breakfast burrito filling. Hell, they'll put rotini on your pizza if you want, since they have it on hand for people who prefer pasta to pizza as their dinner substrate.

I suspect you could experiment to your hearts content for a long while there.

We landed on DynamoDB when we migrated a monolith to microservice architecture. I have to say that DynamoDB fits fairly well in the microservices world where the service scope is small, query patterns are pretty narrow and don't really change much. Building new things using DynamoDB when query patterns aren't necessarily known is very painful and require tedious migration strategies unless you don't mind paying for GSIs.
