That's a nice piece of hardware.

There are other big, people-carrying drones. eHang was probably the first, in 2016. They've actually sold a few. Price is above US$300K. They routinely fly above cities.
Like everybody else, they're battery-limited. Their limit is about 30 minutes.

All those un-shrouded spinning blades at low height are worrisome.
Flying taxis are lining up for certification
Oh I meant specifically in power generation, i.e. using the spent as fuel in "next gen" plants, thereby reprocessing it. The idea of course being that if it produces energy then some of the cost can be offset and that the end result has a much shorter half life.

"After you choose which subjective preference to optimize for, you can definitely employ the scientific method to try to parse that further, but that comes after the preference:) "

I think I can apply the scientific method also to preferences. Meaning if it really makes me happy, to be accepted in certain circles where the conditions are bad shoes, then so be it.

But personally I decided years ago, that this is not the case for me.
Do you want me to write fizzbuzz in proper syntax in some language I have on my resume and 'can do' but don't actually do every day without the help of an IDE? Forget it.

Can I write pseudo code that doesn't compile, is an amalgamation of various languages and probably understandable by anyone that can code even though there's probably no language w/ that syntax out there but it get the idea across perfectly? Sure!

foreach (number in numbersYouWantMeToFizzBuzz) {
if(number MOD 15 eq 0) print fizzbuzz
else if(number MOD 3 eq 0) print fizz
else if(number MOD 5 eq 0) print buzz
else print number
}

Don't have the {}? Who cares, you might be a python guy. Don't have the indentation? Meh you pass but my next question will be about formatting and what you think about applying a standard code style (and fail PRs automatically if it doesn't etc). You used % because your language uses that for MOD? Sure.
>Safari is the baseline in terms of web standards: The sites we develop must work in Safari versions at least 2 years old.

How can anything work reliably when software's lifetime is less than the time I can store meat in my freezer? Future shock has hit the software world hard and nowhere harder than on the web. I can understand the financial motivations for for-profit businesses and why they behave this way. And I know that's not going to change.

But as people, as human people and not just an employee fufilling a corporate person's goals, we can write, support, and use software for far longer than 2 years and we should.
I have not (only a few tests so far) but I'll do you one better. I have a few doctors friends who mix in society, wear masks everywhere, work in covid wards and have yet to contract coronavirus. They have to take an ungodly amount of PCRs.

Point is, a lot of people have been infected so far, but not all people.
Not yet - if you look on pages 5 and 6 of that report, you see that births still exceed deaths in the US. Without immigration, though, population will stop growing in the next two decades (but it hasnt stopped yet).
I know multiple households where the initial infection vector was the kids. Grandpa might be stupid and refuse the vaccine, but keeping little Billy from becoming a carrier lessens the hospital load. If screaming Karens are going to insist on in person learning, we need to mask test and vaccinate in the schools.

As an academic, it must be soul destroying to see the world dominated by ad-hoc efforts like Python. Just like Linux, it was one persons hobby project that repeated old mistakes and now threatens the existence of argubly better technology.
> However, the 'hacker' angle of HN, with regards to the subject of working towards success, or 'hacking success', makes the discussion of the antiwork movement very important.

I agree that the "antiwork movement" (whatever that means) is relevant to hackers. The spectacle of an idiot falsely claiming to represent that movement and making a fool of herself on Fox News is not relevant to hackers.

Even less relevant is the drama in the subreddit that led this mod to go against the wishes of the community and speak on their behalf in a hostile venue with (seemingly) no preparation.
Oh, God. If you believe "disquisition" carries less negative connotations than "blameless postmortem", you completely failed at reading the audience.

Aviation uses the word "investigation", by the way. But they can only omit the "blameless" part because there are very strong guarantees that it will be blameless.
Thank you. Stuyding the hydraulic version really helped prepare me to understand the electrical version. I've been wanting to understand how boost converters work for a while, so this was super useful and interesting!

The comments on Reddit are a sad sight. The fun is gone, the humor is stale. There is no discussion whatsoever. All that's left are a lot of sad, angry people, reciting the litany in hopes of earning digital applause from sad, angry strangers.

An alternative would be to say: Bézier curves are parametric polynomial curves (represented in Bernstein basis rather than monomial basis).

In practice, the DoD right now uses something called AppGate, which downloads a script on-demand to check for device compliance, and it supports free software distributions, but the script isn't super sophisticated and relies heavily on being able to detect the OS flavor and assumes you're using the blessed package manager, so right now it only works for Debian and RedHat descended Linux flavors. It basically just goes down a checklist of STIG guidelines where they are practical to actually check, and doesn't go anywhere near the level of expecting you to have a signed bootloader and a TPM or checking that all of the binaries on your device have been signed.
Many people including me have changed their stance over the years. But unfortunately the Green party in Germany has their roots in de-nuclearization and that alone is probably enough to deter them from changing their policy worrying it would cost them votes.

McAfee Enterprise and FireEye Emerge as Trellix
I follow a different set of criteria for my content-based website. Some are stricter, and some are more relaxed:

- It must be readable on the shittiest monitor money can buy

- It must be readable at night without straining the eyes

- It must be understandable by non-native English speakers

- It must load quickly even in the Berlin U-Bahn (underground train)

- It must work fine with the strictest ad blockers

- It must work fine with JavaScript turned off

- It must be respectful of people's data plans

- It must work in Reader Mode, in Pocket, or as a printed document

- It must work in any reasonably modern web browser

Web developers tend to forget that many people access the web from places with poor reception, on cheap devices, with poor eyesight, and with ad blockers.

At a minimum, you should include enabling MFA for the IAM user. Generally, I'd suggest against using IAM users entirely. Ideally you would use an IAM Role via federation or SSO. For my personal accounts I use AWS SSO even though I'm just one person since it enables me to do all my work through role-based authentication and is still protected by MFA on top.
I don’t blame them, places like Citibank and Chase exist to dip into your account as frequently as possible. Do you think it really costs $45 to handle a bounced check? It’s a completely automated process, costs them a fraction of a cent if you agreed to electronic documents, the rest is pure gravy.

However if your in the US and having trouble with the banks I’d recommend looking for “millennial” banking which is usually zero fee, but you can’t write paper checks and they are remote only.

My wife was paying almost a thousand a month in fees at a regular bank, after I moved her to one of the millennial banks she really prospered. She can’t overdraw the account anymore - and it’s not really an issue since the bank is no longer taking half her paycheck.

Too bad that condemning everyone as sick with zero evidence isn't how a free society works. Let's imprison everyone who "might" commit a crime.

Masks have gigantic effort/inconvenience and mental health costs. I can't think of anything but counting down the seconds until ripping that f*cking thing off my face while being strangled by that shit. Yet nobody cares about anyone else's mental health over their own perceived safety.
This perspective of blaming the motive of the perpetrator instead of the perpetrator itself leads to blurred lines of judgement that makes establishing common rules impossible. If you have ever caught someone doing something evil, you would know just about any crime can be morally justified for a cause of some sort.
The answer here is what we have in drones. Drones can stay perfectly still in the air now. A flying car or personal "jet pack" would be the same. The usable system would provide all the stabilization of a drone and your controls would be just that of a car, with a separate setting for altitude.

And just like cars, you wouldn't be flying it randomly, we'd have to build "lanes" at different heights, etc. You don't drive your car randomly through buildings. In fact, connecting to a network and having it fly for you would be the most likely scenario.

Not to say that there wouldn't be "free flight" parks around.
Flags are not that hard, they're a very specific block combining in very predictable way.

But before their introduction, you could decide if there's a grapheme cluster break between codepoints just by looking at the two codepoints in question. Now, you may need to parse a whole sequence of codepoints to see how flags pair up.

I’m just some guy that works as a software engineer (i don’t even have a phd) but I’ve always been interested in Type theory.

So, a few years back, i found on youtube the lectures Bob Harper gave at the OPLSS, and watched them all.

It’s been a revelation for me!

It’s truly an experience, and I’ve been a straight up Bob Harper fan ever since. This is how all lectures should be given. The passion he has for these topics is completely evident!

Before, i was vaguely interestes in type theory. Since then, i’ve been really into type theory, and I’ve gotten deeper and deeper into it.

So nice to see this homage to him!
‘Don’t Look Up’: humanity could avert asteroid Armageddon, say scientists

Exactly this. Humans have incredibly complicated writing systems, and all Unicode wants to do is encode them all. Keep in mind that the trivial toy system we're more familiar with, ASCII, already has some pretty strange features because even to half-arse one human writing system they needed those features.

Case is totally wild, it only applies to like 5% of the symbols in ASCII, but in the process it means they each need two codepoints and you're expected to carry around tech for switching back and forth between cases.

And then there are several distinct types of white space, each gets a codepoint, some of them try to mess with your text's "position" which may not make any sense in the context where you wanted to use it. What does it mean to have a "horizontal tab" between two parts of the text I wanted to draw on this mug? I found a document which says it is the same as "eight spaces" which seems wrong because surely if you wanted eight spaces you'd just write eight spaces.

And after all that ASCII doesn't have working quotation marks, it doesn't understand how to spell a bunch of common English words like naïve or café, pretty disappointing.
Birth control is not the only factor that has affected birth rates, even if it's the biggest. There are many factors. Any connection to COVID or climate change may not supported by any data you've seen, but does that entitle you to categorically rule it out as a factor? Where's this data that shows no relationship? I've seen a number of indications young people are increasingly hopeless about the future. It stands to reason that this could effect birth rates so I feel there's at least a small burden on you to show why the idea is wrong.

I couldn't tell. Maybe be more explicit next time, try "/s" for instance.
I had always thought of that line as metaphorical (“two dimensional thinking”), but that’s a very interesting idea, and fits well with the final battle that immediately follows it.
Not in the Berlin U-Bahn, or on German intercity trains. Not in large swathes of rural land. Not for people who ran out of data, but still need to Google stuff.
The key, I think, is that everyone else is parsing the same JSON from the same web api. If you can do it faster than them, its still an advantage.

> Masks aren't exactly burdensome. We make kids wear shirts and shoes, even when it's unnecessary in summer. Given the current situation, if you could magically set aside politics and the associated mouth-breathers (which of course we can't) wouldn't we actually demand proof that masks are a net negative before we stop mandating them?

normally you're supposed to actually demand proof that something is a net positive before you start mandating it, instead of saying "it's not exactly burdensome, why not?", and then going ahead and doing it.

shirts and shoes don't obscure faces, which are used to communicate nonverbally. one of the main advantages of public/private schooling over homeschooling (though there's obviously ways to mitigate this for homeschoolers) is the social interactions between children are valuable in teaching them basic social skills more or less organically.

you have to stop and think about nth-order effects when making broad sweeping authoritarianesque mandates like this, it's never as simple as, "well, they have to wear shirts and shoes to school don't they? how are masks any different?"

> They'd also know that pretty much the only condition we're treating nowadays is Covid.

This statement might be true for your location but is not true in general. Here in New York City hospitalizations due to covid are not very high and going down quickly. Elective surgeries and procedures go on as scheduled. ICUs are not overrun with covid specific cases. Majority of the patients with positive PCR test are hospitalized for medical reasons other than covid. Recorded deaths do not differentiate between "died from covid" and "died while covid positive" making death statistics hard to interpret. In general, compared to the situation on the ground in March-April 2020 this time the covid load on NYC hospital system is lighter.

The biggest challenge is staffing shortages in the hospitals due to general burn-out, people being on sick leave due to spreading omicron. Noticeable percentage of nurses were laid off because of the vaccine mandate (i am not judging the mandate, just stating the consequence).

It's amazing to me how long 100K years are

~1-2 million years ago humans "invented" fire.
~12'000 years ago we invented agriculture.
~4'500 years ago the pyramids were built.

Will human civilization even exist in 100'000 years, or will humans consider moving to the solar system next door because it has become so advanced of a civilization?

All the while since 2022 some reactor fuel has been degrading in a some random hole in the country then named Sweden.
I'm making a point that the US is unique in this regard, and few other countries are being this draconian about masking kids. TFA notes that the CDC's own data don't lead to the conclusion that these measures do much of anything, and the measures actively ignore the other potential developmental effects on e.g. language processing. Those clinic articles (they're articles, written by what looks like some random communications staffer, not official guidance or studies) just reference CDC guidance. If you look at what the WHO is actually recommending - ignoring how piss poor their guidance has been thus far - it's way more nuanced than you are implying.

I don't really care to reiterate the CDC's own studies cited in TFA, as you and many others seem convinced that we should be masking indefinitely, even after the pandemic "ends".

If you want to promote portability, then blocks should be web components based, full stop. React-based blocks won't be usable without setting up React on the page.

I think the FAQ around leaves a lot more open questions. Like:

> but they do not standardize the interface between those blocks and the applications using them

I'm not sure this is entirely true. Most reusable components these will have an interface described by a type system - this is how IDEs offer code completion and JSX and other template systems are type-checked.

In the Web Components Community Group we're also standardizing a format for describing the entire interface of a web component, including its attributes, properties, events, methods, CSS variables and parts, etc. This is called the Custom Element Manifest: https://github.com/webcomponents/custom-elements-manifest

Instead of being tied to json-ld, the manifest just documents what JS/TS type a property, etc., has. If a component has a person property that accepts a Person type, a tool can understand that.

This manifest will give tools like catalogs, linters, and visual UI builders enough information to do high-level operations like generate demos, lint templates, assemble components without code, etc.
