Based on what you've said about amines - I suspect you don't eat potatoes or tomatoes, right?

There was a recent discussion here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29131983

I seem to have a very mild version of the same thing, but I can have one of the 'dangerous' types of amine rich food every so often.

Anyway, I commend your engineers approach and working out what is good for you.

I agree that space can accommodate these satellites, but what about the used up resources required to build the satellites? The shortage of natural resources, as of now, will only worsen and the losses are more costly than the price - its always possible to print more money but its not possible to print more resources.

The old service I have with rates is my (old) mobile subscription. They would text me when I reached certain reasonable milestones and again when I passed a user-defined milestone.

My water utility will call me when my water usage spikes. That happened when I had a burst pipe but I'm not sure they're consistent with this so wouldn't count it as firmly as with the mobile carrier.

Besides, not providing an alert by default is still user-hostile, even if other services don't provide them.

Hey folks,

This app allows to easily create SVG backgrounds revolving around text.

Quick back story on why I wanted to make this.

Whilst scanning the web for SVG generators and background makers, I saw a bunch that worked with patterns, but none for text! So I decided to start making it.

Key features:

- Change the font-family to anything available from Google fonts
- Choose between diagonal and spiral text
- Customize font size, stroke width, rotation etc

If you have any questions or feedback they are more than welcome.

I have a few more ideas I could implement, like different presets for the text shapes (wavy, 3D..)

And also stuff like gradient backgrounds, but I’ll only do those if this is actually useful to anyone aha

Have a good one!

Telegram didn't have e2e encryption for a long time and its chats are still not e2e encrypted by default. Also, I would hardly call Durov an anarchist.
Any story on why the blog does not support IPv6? Your ISP seems to support it.

The number of active credit card holders in the UK is somewhere in the 35 million range. The number of adults is somewhere over 56 million. There is quite a mismatch there. Unlike the US, owning a credit card is not standard for most people in the world.

It's cheaper and better than the competitors. If HughesNet and Viasat can serve customers, why can't Starlink and do it better and cheaper than either.

There is no “talking about doing it for Reddit” here. Targeting a measure like this at specific companies is all sorts of gross, it has to be a case of what’s good for the goose is good for the gander.

There was a thread about this yesterday [0], this is almost certainly not going to happen. I think based on the number of times they have tried to legislate for this, most recently in 2019, I would put the odds of it happening (even in a hamstrung way) at less than 10%.

Big company’s (Facebook, etc) will lobby against it, they will argue about what the threshold of requirement is. Then there is the logistics, privacy, security and cost factors. Not going to happen.

I believe this is all about making it look like politicians are doing “something” without actually doing anything.

> On the other hand. If I did any social organizing today, I would definitely use Telegram. Signal is fine, but nobody is using it and the UX is just worse. I don't trust Facebook to randomly not shut everything down because some outsourced content moderator in New Delhi had a bad sleep.

I don't see how Telegram is any different to say, Signal. It may have better apps, UX, features and more which that alone makes it a compelling competitor but its optional E2EE support is quite damning.

The great thing about regulations is that it stops such suspicious projects like TON dead in their tracks. After the ICO madness in 2017, unregistered ICOs have become illegal and TON fell in that category.

But who knows, maybe when the terrorists, extremists, scammers and fraudsters realise that Telegram is not E2EE by default or layman terms 'not secure', perhaps they would run to Signal and chat amongst themselves about using a private untraceable cryptocurrency like MobileCoin to fund and plan their operations.

Just write a script that copies whatever is in your clipboard to a ./images/ directory and replace the content of your clipboard with the markdown you usually write pointing to that image.

What thoughts on doing away with income tax altogether? There is already tax on sales. No reason to have tax on source as well. Tiered tax rates based on how much you're buying or how many things you're buying can allow taxing less from the poor.
The government should easily be able to structure it so that their net revenue is more or less same. Imagine the amount of overhead and inefficiencies that can be eliminated altogether.
> With a digital currency you can do a pre-sale trick, so you'll see the funds were stolen - and you then don't sell them the car in the first place.

It's a race against time. As soon as the coins are sent to a new address you can't know whether goods or services were exchanged in this process and you are thus punishing a well-intentioned seller as opposed to the thief.

I do wish parents would stop teaching kids to take the short route over the carpark on the way to school. They save a couple of meters but walk behind cars backing out of the car garages... The back camera is handy but you won't see them if they walk on your side of the lane, too close to the 90 degree edge of the car.

And to make it more fun, our car has an overlay on the left edge with a top down view of the sensors around the car. That one blocks the view completely in that edge. And has a black background window that slowly fades away.
That's awesome. I'm curious, what platform(s)/software are you using in your day-to-day? No obligation to answer, just always interested to hear what kind of environments other people are working in! :)
> how long ago did you take those courses?

It took me one year to go through the specialization on system biology at Coursera. In overall I estimate it took 3 years of online courses.
The Edx course (intro to...) is very interesting and demanding but it is mostly about core concepts and historical aspects. As ArtWomb said you will not learn state of art information in this course.

> Would you suggest me to take any of them?

Why not, but it depends on what you already know, the time you have, etc...I was used to R&D methods and culture beforehand because of my job.

> How do you go about doing such specialization?
It's on Coursera:

https://www.coursera.org/specializations/systems-biology

> Just found a college that had the course and signed up to it? Was that in the US?
It was in France, at Rennes I university. There are many low cost opportunities in France, but I felt that the quality of the Coursera courses was much higher than what I learned at the uni.

> Did you end up getting a job at the university to be able to conduct research? Or are you allowed to just visit and use their facilities for that?

I didn't get a job, first because I am old, retired and also because I do not expect to find a so interesting job in a small university in France. A laboratory in a large company would fit my tastes better. The reasons are:

I think what matters is not only the ability to do interesting stuff, you can do as much interesting studies from your armchair than in a university because you can access public and not so public databases and there is an incredible amount of software available for free and people willing to help.

A real glass ceiling is that you must belong to a good team to be recognized for your work:

Scientists do not read single author papers.

The field is filled with in an incredible amount of low quality publications.

For example in my chosen field (ALS research) there is an important work published roughly every two years, yet every week people are claiming to make breakthrough and every year 15,000 papers are published.

Even among recognized scientists there are schools of thought that are incompatible, with contradictory findings never discussed or even addressed. For example nobody agrees on what is causing Alzheimer, Parkinson, ALS, MS, etc...

Important symptoms like muscle wasting are not investigated by muscle scientists who prefer studying neurons.

Even weirder: In brain, glial cells largely outnumbers (10/1) neurons, yet few publications mention them.

It's hard to make a contribution, so I prefer to discuss articles that I find interesting, in the hope to improve a bit the signal/noise ratio.

> It strikes me that Grantham is a classic rationalist, a very old school guy who is used to the way the markets have functioned for the past 100 years. However, he just doesn't really seem to GET the change in investing. Meme stocks, cryptos, etc. We live in an irrational, emotion driven market more now than ever before, and I hate to say it, but these old timers don't seem to get the picture and will probably get burned.

"This time it's different" is a recurring slogan that has preceded every major market crash since at least early 20th century.

It's ok to pass on accurate information that requires the public to put in the work to accurately understand it.

Setting aside Brexit itself, the government currently in power were elected partly on promises to cut such friction, not increase it.

But yeah, it's a crappy, incompetent government who are currently announcing all kinds of badly thought out populist ideas to distract attention from the trouble their leader is in.
I believe they're talking about doing that, but contracting out to approved 3rd parties instead of the government for age verification. I still don't trust them to do it securely, and I worry deeply about the chilling effect it will have on the internet as a whole.

The point I'm making is that absolute statements about these things are incorrect. When used appropriately these tools can add to your visualization and story.

Let me give some examples of animation used in data visualization that really contributes to the story:

https://drones.pitchinteractive.com/

https://guns.periscopic.com/

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-interactive/2017/dec/...

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/08/29/opinion/clima...

I think it's hard to argue these are "entertainment", they all tell important stories using data and animation. In these examples animation adds to the story, making it more engaging, and drawing more attention to the issue than it otherwise would have gotten. It can evoke surprise, shock, emotion that could not be achieved otherwise.

It's a bit like: people often use text in very bad ways. To mislead, too much or too little information, large quantities that say nothing at all, unreadable styles, lack of structure etc etc. Does that mean text is bad and you stop writing text? Of course not.
