Spending 1m on a more aerodynamic shape means 1m less cargo space.

It's enjoyable to think I am good and they are bad. That means I don't have to change anything, but in practice it won't help me to get next good-paying and mentally rewarding job. So, I prefer to think I am doing something wrong, or I have something in myself to improve and by doing that I take things under control.

And in the end, if there is something I can improve and I perform steps for the improvement, I have more hope I am getting better and valuable as a professional.

On the other hand, if I am good, and they are bad, what do I do? Find a `good` employer? What if I won't?
That is logical though: that's before there were any guidelines or moderation. Once those were in place it became a lot nicer.
No, but the uncensorable content in it will.
>>Diesel engines don't have engine braking by design

First time I hear about this. I've driven and owned plenty of diesel vehicles in my life and diesel engines definitely do have engine braking(unless it's different in semis? but I don't see why it would be - just leave it in gear and let it slow down?)
> They just haul more

Not really, they are just longer. For example the US interstates have a rather strict total weight limit (even by European standards) of 36 tonnes. Where I live, the general legal limit is 76 tonnes, and there are specific (every-day) routes with vehicles weighing over 100 tonnes. Granted, such heavy trucks with special permits are longer than the 18.75 metres mentioned in the article, but even then you wouldn't want to make them any longer by wasting space for an overlong cab.

TCEC can't afford to run more games in parallel. And if they did, they'd use all that processing power to run one game instead. The point is to produce the highest quality chess possible.

Why would you delay showing the moves that happen when you can just... not do it? You can always go through the games at your own pace afterwards anyway.
I am far from left leaning (in the sense of American progressive left, I am an immigrant and not in the US), and I find this actually to be wrong. I think hn is far more balanced politically than reddit or twitter.
Bookmarks projects fail to be interesting because simply recording a list of links (maybe with folders or tags or some other categorization method) is something anyone can do trivially in a text file. They add no value because they only focus on the easiest part - simply capturing the link. My bookmarks.txt file is just as easy to use and requires only a text editor. I can sync it multiple computers, organize and search it any way I want, back it up, add notes, etc. In many ways a text file is a vast improvement over the existing solutions.

If you really want to make a good bookmark app, you need to understand that the act of bookmarking, organizing bookmarks, and using bookmarks are three completely separate activities. When you create a bookmark, you want minimal interaction - click the star, maybe add a tag, and move on. When you're organizing bookmarks you want to review and restructure what you've already bookmarked into folders, a mindmap, etc. while taking into account the content behind each link. When you're using bookmarks, you want to leverage that existing organization scheme to find what you want quickly. Most bookmark features/plugins are decent at the first step of capturing the link, but are terrible at or completely ignore the rest.

I would love to see a bookmark app that was designed in the spirit of "Getting Things Done" - where ideas are captured quickly but then funneled into a system where they are later reviewed regularly and acted upon. Just capturing a list of bookmarks and regurgitating them to the user is not sufficient and can be easily replaced with a text file.
90% of Coinbase’s Q3 revenue was from transaction fees. One benefit of crypto is you have options to move to a zero-fee alternative, but let’s not get overly optimistic either. Many tradfi solutions will be copied at the outset because they work.
The general type of person on HN is more rigid-minded than a decade ago. They are less interested in exploring new ideas and more about the status quo. None of these people actually believe this about themselves, but it is obvious when reading through the comments. These people also tend to get increasingly bitter over time, which fuels a lack of curiosity and a shallow, dismissive attitude. I find these people to be lame and look to escape them whenever possible.
Agreed. Not sure if the vegan replacements have the same properties (fattiness, moisture, etc.) that the recipe expects, and many vegan dishes from South/Southeast Asia and so on are delicious.

> I just think it'd be fun learning to drive an 18 speed crash box with double clutching and clutch brakes. However, there's absolutely no reason for me to get it.

I guarantee you would quickly abandon this double clutching "fun" at real trucking job because it is very tiring when you need to change gears a lot for example when there are a lot of intersections and turns. AFAIK most/all drivers in USA don't use clutch at all (for anything other than starting and stopping the vehicle) in non-synchronized transmission trucks for that very reason. Switching gears without clutch is easier and faster when you learn how to do it smoothly.

That being said... I strongly suggest you to try either American or Euro Truck simulator games. If you have a steering wheel and gearbox controllers for your computer, you can indeed have a lot of fun and gain some gear shifting and big truck driving skills at much lower cost than in real life while still having kind of real feeling.
In NYC at least, electric supply charges are distinct line items from electric delivery charges. Consumers do have the option of choosing who supplies their electricity (e.g. namely if you want to buy your electricity from a green source). But the local monopoly is always entitled to charge you for the service of actually delivering said electricity to you.

Both charges fluctuate from month to month. When I still lived in Indiana, the local monopoly lumped together supply and delivery charges into a single line item which, interestingly enough, was significantly lower than what I pay for just delivery now.

The following prices are for roughly April.

NYC (ConEd) delivery charge is ~$18/month + ~$0.123/kWh. Supply is usually something like ~$0.115/kWh.

Indiana (Duke Energy) total cost (including both supply and delivery) was ~$9/month + ~$0.115/kWh.

I really do miss the utility apps of the early 2000s that went social. I'm travelling soon and want to re-visit a restaurant I went to some time ago and none of the apps on my phone will make it easy to look up where it was I ate before. When I was living abroad in the early 2000s, the social apps like Foursquare made that kind of utility-to-me feature fun and useful.

FB, as a social platform, is moving away from being a social app. Same thing happened to other social apps. The original utility they had in the early days was subsumed by social, which is now being subsumed by something else. The original utility can't be found anywhere... it was dragged down into the depths and drowned.

In some ways, my iPhone now is less useful to me than it was before. I can look things up in the moment, but in terms of connecting me to my past activities -- not so much.
You could power inductively, perhaps. So create a fluctuating magnetic field to deliver power to a coil (which is on the puck), then let a microprocessor on the puck control the flow of current to different coils (also on the puck) which are then pulled towards permanent magnets in the PCB.

Fully agree. If anything the choice that Apple is offering its users should be made law so it’s not just an “Apple thing”. If you want to track users you should have to ask them first, and if they say no that’s the end of it.

Why do I as an individual not get any of these benefits? Why can't I deduct the depreciation of my assets on my personal taxes? Why can't I change the way I pay for goods to avoid paying taxes? More importantly, why do I not only get these benefits, but I have to make up for all of these corporations getting these benefits by paying higher taxes. The money has to come from somewhere, why are all of the policies in favor of large businesses and in opposition to me as an individual? That's the issue.
As an ex-power trader active in the californian market, his analysis is incomplete.

The pricing of wholesale market depends on many factors, including
1) the amount of electricity consumed at time T (quantity)
2) the variation on that amount at time T (delta of your quantity)
3) the location (delivery fee for your quantity)

The problem with solar in californa is that electricity is produced when the market does not need it, and that it stops production when the demand increases. The current reality is that 'green' power generation increases the dependance on 'brown' power source for reliability reasons.

Your description fits what I was thinking about exactly. Is there a quick-start or example of the db migration? At first glance this left me feeling worried I would have to learn a new language (CUE?) and a bunch of new concepts. That's fair if that's what is necessary, but if I could leverage my existing knowledge of sql and other db migration tools that would make me feel less stressed.

Assuming they hired an architect and had hired labor build it (and put Feist lyrics at the bottom of the post), easily in the multi-million dollar range considering the location.

That said, it doesn't have to be that way. I'm building a house up in the mountains at the moment. Found ~3 acres for 12k and I'm doing the land clearing and build mostly by myself on the weekends to keep costs down.

My current guess is final costs w/ out-of-pocket financing (goal is to do it debt-free so I own house and land outright when I finish) will be somewhere between $250k-$350k, including the land price (maybe a bit higher as material prices fluctuate).

If you're patient and willing to make adjustments elsewhere in your life, you can do it. If you're just building a simple house, too, and not a Dwell photoshoot, you'd be surprised at what you can accomplish.
It's really easy to spin a naive fanboy (of a particular brand, technology or otherwise) narrative like this and when you aim your tropes ("ze backwards yankees") right at audience's bias you're sure to get a bunch of virtue points in response.

The fact of the matter is that there's very, very, few secrets in the automotive and heavy equipment industries. If someone is or isn't doing something it's because they've run the numbers and they don't think it pencils out for what they build and who they sell to.

That distribution cost is not at all related to solar. With rooftop solar your power travels across the powerline maybe 1 city block to your neighbor. It's not traveling thousands and thousands of miles.

This is an incredible distortion of Adorno and the Frankfurt School, which in itself makes it clear you did not even read the article. Why comment at all? It's amazing people are still standing their ground about "wokeness," I assure you they were worried about bigger things than that. They didn't even have the language of individual morality that "wokeness" implies, like we do now. They survived the holocaust! You think they were worried about what any given person should think about queer people or minorities? Like Adorno's music, I just hear dissonance here.
"They don't win any votes by supporting legalization (they have all those reluctant votes anyways), and publicly supporting legalization gives their far-right opposing party free ammunition (the DNC wants your kids to be stoned, urban crime, &c.). So it's all downside, with no upside."

In today's polarized climate, you can say that about almost any issue whatsoever.

Compare the Democrats' reluctance to take on and lead on issues to the modus operandi of the Republicans, who have not hesitated to innovate and lead in the political sphere even when the ideas they float are laughed at and villified by their opposition and the mainstream media. Despite that they still manage to fire up their base, change the national conversation, and get their leaders elected.

Democrats don't have to have the equivalent of FOX News or conservative talk radio (they tried that with Air America[1] and failed), but they could show some backbone and actually lead rather than always reacting to Republicans framing the issues.

The nation has clearly moved on past believing in Reefer Madness style anti-cannabis propaganda, and even the risk-averse Democratic leadership should recognize that cannabis legalization is an issue with broad national support and that this is a leadership opportunity.

Agreed 100%. My bookmarking behaviour has changed massively in this respect over the past 15 years. I used to have a giant bookmarks folder but at some point it became easier to Google for the site first, for a number of reasons:

1) Link rot. I have bookmarks from as late as 2016, that 404 because the site is no longer hosted.

2) With smartphones, my browsing is split across PC and mobile, and I don't sync bookmarks across them (personal preference). This leads to more Google-first behaviour.

3) More and more stuff is getting bookmarked inside of apps. Reddit 'saves', Pinterest 'pins' and Twitter 'bookmarks'.
Sales is hard.

> today's "wellness" and "natural health" movements, who became allies in their opposition to modernism, communism, and the chaos of democracy.

First of all, lumping "modernism, communism, and [...] democracy" together in opposition to "right wing authoritarianism" makes little sense. Fascism had strong modernist currents (hence V2s, autobahnen, and Rube-Goldberg deathcamps (the Khmer Rouge didn't need all that)). And both it and Communism are illiberal and undemocratic in practice.

Second, the minute you translate these things outside "the West", the script flips 180. "Wellness", "natural health", and the rejection of "modernity" become "indigenous knowledge" (say, "ayurveda") and "anticolonialist".

I just don't think these free-associational patterns are terribly useful, because they don't actually work.

> That Mississippi of all places legalizes marijuana means that it will probably be legalized in all 50 states within a year or two.

Doubtful! The state legislatures in these states are generally more conservative than the population and are generally against these measures. In Wisconsin for example there is currently no chance of legalization because the state legislature is gerrymandered within an inch of its life for some of the most radical republicans in the country, despite the fact that generally the state votes for democratic representatives at the federal and state level.
I'm not sure where to start with this article.

Ok, how about here: there is no necessary connection between costs and prices, at all, and this is why some businesses go broke and others are worth a trillion dollars.

Starting completely over with the basic microeconomics correct, there's surely an interesting question about public utilities which are paying prices for electricity which no longer line up with amortization and other costs of provision to be answered.

Everything said about clubs was not-even-wrong, though.
I do some IoT pet projects and getting deeper into soldering and wiring (just as an amateur) with ESP32, Arduino, Raspberry, and all things around to build toys, agriculture, home automation and other kinds of projects.

Thanks for the advice!

I don't switch to Signal, Whatsapp, Telegram, Facebook Messenger, Discord, etc. because I have several different friend groups, family groups and people which belong to none of these groups I message with. Occasionally someone from one of the groups will try to get people to switch but the problem is none of them choose the same messaging app, so changing now puts people in the position of having to use multiple different messaging apps and remembering which they need to use for each person. It is a lot easier to stick to the common ground everyone has which in the US is your pre-installed messaging app. On the iPhone this allows you to reach everyone via either Apple's proprietary service or SMS. On Android this allows you to reach everyone via SMS or RCS. When you ask your friends to switch messaging apps you are asking them to do something which complicates their use of messaging but appears to provide no relevant benefits to them.
Of those, I'd say paper quality matters. For example, if the paper is so thin and brittle that it's hard to read the text or turn the pages without damaging the book beyond legibility, that's a problem.

There's a couple of reasons for why a person may relapse after CAR-T therapy, and much is still under investigation.

One large category is that the attack on the CD19 target has selected for B-cells which have a mutated CD19 or do not express CD19. This part kind of makes sense, and is somewhat understandable.

The other category is roughly that the CAR-T cells fucked up, and this is where things are a little murky. Sometimes the CAR-T cells kind of disappeared really quickly after infusion. Sometimes they're there but there's no significant immune response. Remember the therapy uses the patient's own T-cells which get "armed" outside the body and then re-infused. What if the patient's own T-cells are kind of uh, wimpy? Or their immune system overall is? (We know, for example, that T-cell immunity in general declines over age, which probably partly explains better results in younger patients than older).

Anyways, for various reasons, you can see why just "doing it again" may not work due to some issue with the targeting and the immune reaction.

Oh and also CAR-T therapy is not benign. You can get intense cytokine release syndrome where the (intended) activation of your immune system causes a ton of systemic effects (sometimes resulting in organ failure, seizures, death).

Nevertheless, sometimes they do try it again. I've had patients they've attempted CAR-T two or three times on. As you may guess, it was not effective.
The LATCH system has a maximum combined weight of the carseat plus child of 65 pounds. As a result, the threshold varies with the weight of your carseat and weight of your child, but a typical 4- or 5-year old probably should be using the belt.

https://csftl.org/whats-the-deal-with-weight-limits/

Personally, I don't think that was a good threshold to set. I agree that the LATCH anchors are better. In 2003, I suppose people were mostly using carseats for infants and toddlers in little 10-pound styrofoam shells, now we know kids are safer in carseats until they're significantly older and heavier, and they're in 25-pound adjustable, heavily bolstered bucket seat style carseats.
