The #1 problem with renewable energy is that the transition to a mostly low-carbon grid is supposed to happen at an indeterminate point in the future. That future currently exists only on paper. Even Ireland and the UK - two countries frequently brought up in this context - still supply only around a third of electrical energy via renewables.

Electrifying everything sounds nice until you realise that nowhere on earth has load growth been supplied by renewable energy.

It is truly a crying shame that nuclear has been abandoned in pursuit of unclear future benefits all the while accelerating the climate emergency.
"Western Culture" is the dog whistle we're hearing a lot in the US.
Yepp, just look at other responses here in this thread. People often assume that there is a system language that is used in the browser; that is only partly true, browser settings allow to specify multiple languages with given priority. It is just usually the default system language, until you configure it. The browser might not even use the system language in that setting at all if you configure otherwise.
I have goofed around a little bit with GUI programming for Go. Fyne is incomplete, but I did find it relatively simple to slap something together. It may turn out to be a good cross-platform toolkit in the future, but I didn't like the requirement on OpenGL. Not my choice, but the utility needed to run on Windows 7 and I don't like updating drivers on the machine (risky).

Webview works ok, and you can get a lightweight Electron-like thing going that uses your existing browser. This reduces binary size greatly. I didn't try any JavaScript frameworks with it, just vanilla JS. You can bidirectional bind between JavaScript and Go too.

What I liked the most was gothic, since Tk looks good enough and runs on Windows 7 easily. Gothic is a Tk binding for Go that is quite simple to use. However, you are writing the GUI in Tk now, and you will either love it or hate it. I do have a bias for Tcl, so it was appreciated.

My use case scenario was supporting an old machine running Windows 7 with mediocre video. I ended up just using Tcl/Tk without Go since it was simpler and reduced a layer (Tcl->Go->C). When it comes to writing small and/or inhouse stuff, I found it easy and fast to just slap out a Tcl/Tk app and call it a day. I can develop on my Linux/BSD box and then just Windows specific bits if necessary and it usually Just Works(tm).

Oh, it should be noted that Python + Tkinter is a decent alternative for those of you needing executables. Pyinstaller is basically a "one-click" and works with bundling Tkinter. Roy Keene has done good work putting together kitcreator for Tcl, but pyinstaller is simpler if you don't understand the magic.

I agree with your first paragraph.

Your second paragraph is one of the worst analogies I've seen in a while. You have to find a bordering country with a different religion with whom USA has been at war for decades.
Hindu religion is quite similar. In fact Judaism explicitly allows for conversion (which, to be sure, is a difficult process) whereas Hinduism only acknowledges "purification" of "ethnically/ancestrally Hindu" people who were introduced to other religions.

Lots of Anime / Manga is state sponsored through the government's "Cool Japan" initiative, a very well funded undertaking to project soft power into the world through pop-cultural means. That's why a lot of the content is either putting Japanese culture on a pedestal, or showing the "outside world" as a dangerous, uncultured place.
Exceptions apply of course - Japanese people have weird ideas about Paris, for example, which they think of as "almost as good as Japan". I guess by associating themselves with French culture, they think it will make them more cultured in turn.
A funny side-effect of that is "Paris Syndrome" - a described ailment in Japanese medicine for the culture shock when Japanese people travel to Paris for the first time and see that there are Africans, or men with beards, or a candy wrapper next to a trash can. There are reports of Japanese women fainting on the streets of Paris by the truck load.
ahhhh gotcha. Yeah, bad behaviors/instincts from all involved.

Mutual TLS doesn't help here - the server TLS implementation can easily be configured to accept any certificate. Mutual TLS gives you mutual authentication, but if the server doesn't care whether the client is authentic or not (because it's been replaced by a malicious implementation) then how does that help?

Language bindings for any GObject powered are usually automatically generated from their introspection data (.gir) generated from g-ir-scanner.

So that wouldn't be the issue.
Even if isn't available now, you can start building now. This isn't the gotcha many think it is.

A nuclear plant will provide decades of energy without emitting carbon into the atmosphere. In all that time, build towards a future where the nuclear plant isn't needed. The promise of a wind and solar future is still several decades in the future. Why wait for that when we have a problem right now?
I don't trust either Ukraine nor Russia in this matter. I can see Ukraine using it for surveillance and the drone going haywire. I also can see Russia using it as SAM bait but the drone flying off all up to Croatia.

There is something about being surrounded by people who actually want you dead that makes you somewhat rigid about instituting measures intended to keep you alive. I'm not arguing rights and wrongs, here. Merely human psychology.

Very cool. Sorry for being "that guy" but I assume this doesn't take into account the earth surface curvature, just the relative sun position and then assumes a flat earth?

It probably not nearly significant enough on the scale of the use case described on the site, but a shadow on a sphere has a different shape than a shadow on a plane. Though that effect may cancel out depending on the map projection that was used.
Dang, true. Didn't catch that.
I think sometime I had set cron to run a script every day at a certain time and bypassed every other day with a simple .txt file.

Top of my script was a simple if-clause, when alternate-day.txt is found, it will be removed and the script runs. If no .txt is found it will be created and the script exits. A bit lame, but it worked and was quick :)
This thread surprised me; I thought politics was off-topic on HN, at least for root articles - it seems to be OK in comments, as long as people don't get too angry.

What Does 'No First Use' Mean? A Nuclear Glossary
This is 100% it.

Expectation setting is the missing key in a lot of these conversations. Asking to ask is about not being rude. There are better ways to do this in an asynchronous conversation. It's right up there with "we need to talk" in texts. The anxiety it causes is completely unnecessary, and easily avoided with a little detail and priority.

There are countless socially defined, implicit hammers looking for nails. Most can be improved upon or swapped out for different tools.
I'm not sure negotiation is the problem. My company has not been making competitive counters to anybody I know who has left for two years. I feel like a lot of the senior employees are S tier, FAANG caliber, great developers but the company doesn't want to pay for that level of talent in the current market. I also think leadership is completely out of touch with the hiring market.

For example, I know somebody who was told to come with an offer if they wanted a raise. They came to their first line with an offer for 20% more plus more equity. The first line said they would match the salary, but ultimately some exec thought it was too much and only offered a 10% raise. The person left.
Only for the rootkit style anti-cheat software.

Personal opinion: Don't put anything that matters, or connections to anything that matters, on computers with rootkit anti-cheat software installed. Even if the company itself is perfectly respectful, there's too many instances of supply chain attacks and attackers loitering on internal networks to trust such a vulnerability. At all.

It should be clarified that it dosen't apply to civilians[0].

In any case, I wish they would make a universally applicable policy that produce a reasonable result in all situations, rather than make arbitrary case-by-case exceptions. For instance, why not make a rule saying you are allowed to call for violence against individuals presently committing acts of violence? It should not matter if that violence is committed on behalf of the Russian or US government or someone else.

With your logic it would be like: Japan is for Shintos, Italy for Roman Catholics, Israel for Jews....sounds terrible no?

Since like forever Jews where all over the world (and called it their home) with vastly different cultures/food/music, there is not the ONE Jewish Culture but thousands, you just cant compare it to Japan or Italy.

> In this context Christian almost always means white even if they try to pretend that isn't the case.

No, it doesn't. Also, aren't most Mexicans technically white (i.e. that's what they're supposed to check on a US census form)? It's just a bad analogy.

There are paths to modify that analogy to make it work (or at least work better) for the pair America and Mexico, but you're not following any of those.
I think you might mean bodyfat.

> it has effectively no bearing on weight in the general population (non-athletes).

Cmon man, strength / muscle building -absolutely- has an effect on "weight" and "bodyfat". Even when not at the athlete level. Muscle at rest burns more calories than fat at rest, and those burned calories gotta come from somewhere.

Being small, having a low RCS, and flying low enough to evade radar, means that most states probably had difficulties tracking it accurately. Romania claimed they saw it on radar for only 3 minutes.

Bloody hell. Whoever engages in such behaviour is an enemy of open society. I wonder if there is a way to identify such accounts online and remove them from platforms.
This is not only about terror activity.

I'm an Israeli, politically left leaning and it's a shame that I need to write the following(and for many years I've believed the opposite) :

The Israeli Arabs are a big problem. We've seen it during the last war with Gaza, when those many Israeli Arab citizens created mobs that did many violent actions in quite a few places. Israeli people in some cities had to flee their homes. And yes there we're also Israeli mobs.

This is not the first time this happens.

It's gotten seriously bad, so bad that now the Israeli Army is building special roads bypassing areas with a lot of Israeli Arab citizens, because those areas aren't safe to use in the case of a war on our borders,

So objectively, Arabs and Jews mix very poorly.

So is it wise to add another 130K such citizens every ten years ? Or more specifically, Palestinians, who hate us even more ? Or is it just increasing the problem ?

And sure, this isn't a nice decision. We Israelis live in a partial war situation. That's the reality.

So you can't compare it to barring Mexicans from enter to the US. It's much more complicated.

Yesterday he wrote an article about being “anti-woke” on a college campus. It included recommendations such as what he called the “berserker strategy” which was to pick as many fights as possible on every social justice topic.

Scott is anything but unbiased. He writes with flowery language that elicits a sense of faux humbleness and “both sides” journalism while subtlety pushing the reader to his desired conclusions on things like race and IQ.

He’s famous for leaked e-mails where he admitted writing a lot about neoreactionaries because it gets more clicks, which has made him somewhat of a hero among those circles. He also admitted that he believes in “HBD” which is an alt-right euphemism for racist views on IQ.

He may feel unbiased and objective due to his writing style, but he’s far from it if you’ve been following him and reading closely.
Right, but I wasn't talking about website builders. I'm talking about enabling access to a phone's various sensors and capabilities through a manner similar to Pockit.

This article got me thinking: is there anything intrinsically wrong with money-laundering? Or is it something we all decided was okay for a state to police without a clear moral basis, like prostitution? Is it only illegal because the money was gained by committing a crime? If so, wouldn't money laundering laws be an indirect solution to the problem? I'd love to hear some informed perspectives on this.

Then why are you only pointing them into buying individual stocks?

Most are better served with a more conservative ETF market index portfolio approach. Picking individual stocks can be part of one's portfolio at some point but it is a hard place to start.
Given the recent many displays of Russian government incompetence, I doubt that they will connect the dots fast enough to repress people like them on an individual level (or at least I hope so). It seems they have plenty of actual protestors in the streets to arrest. Should keep them busy for a while. This could be, in fact, the best moment for JetBrains to act.

> When I ask the same question on my Bluetooth headphones it says Liverpool. I can't get it to work. It's been like that for a year. Can't get any support.

Maybe Google's own analytics suggest that very few people in Manchester use Bluetooth gadgets, ergo you are in Liverpool.

Or (more seriously even if as unlikely perhaps) maybe you have a duplicate Bluetooth MAC address, the other one located in Liverpool. Do you have Bluetooth turned on when not using your headphones? Does the answer depend on Bluetooth being on?
I agree that it won't obsolete actors as GP says, but it will absolutely be cheaper and easier. The expense of acting doesn't come from the craft being expensive or rare. It comes from the market power that results when the strongest connection we feel to a performance is inseparable from the performer (ie their face). There's a reason that editors and cinematographers don't have fans outside of film nerds,and it's not that because their craft is trivial or that they don't contribute to the film. Technology costs can be reduced, but market power is what allows them to collect tens (or hundreds!) of millions of dollars. Commoditization via deepfakes turns them into just another employee.

You can look at voice acting as an example. Before Robin Williams' performance in Aladdin started the trend of recognizable celebrities as voice actors, there was a thriving community of voice-only actors in big-budget movies, hired for their craft instead of their brand. And yet, you probably can't name a single one, despite being able to name plenty of actors from non-animated films of the era. They were also inherently replaceable, as memorably parodied by the simpsons: https://youtu.be/g5ffaTv4ajg

It's notable that the studios switched to celebrity actors precisely for the brand that they brought from their non-voice roles.

Deepfakes are pretty much identical to this animated case, allowing it to be extended to physical movies. The recognizable portion of a performance becomes a few model files instead of an actor's face, and the job of a (replaceable) human actor is to play the role of the performer, not just the character.
tl;dr -- yes

1. why?
- only way scales -- we can't possibly curate everything
- some sort of shared gain -- token, rev share, that's WIP
- core concept is what we call "deep reddit" - search all links in a subreddit

2. users will get same controls

- domains <- specific, subs, TLDs, etc.
- keywords <- exact or fuzzy, akin to ~
- structure <- microformats, schema.org, etc.
- format / content <- images, blogs, newsletters, video, etc.
- user controls <- think form builder so don't have to remember query syntax
- updates <- how often to snag updates
- alerts, etc.

3. deployments

- private, unlisted, or public
- branded or white labeled / embedded
- basically your personalized equalizer for the web

>As far as slavery goes, that's one hell of a slippery slope. Owning a website and curating the information on it is tantamount to kidnapping people and exercising ownership over them and their children? That's like saying someone who "hurt" your feelings is engaging in literal torture and murder.

Ah, but I was comparing the justification to perpetuate said institutions, not the pain inflicted of the institutions themselves; there's big difference. Perhaps you're right, you shouldn't be allowed to process information as you see fit.
Ah cool, so we're not drawing lines.

If you really practice this in life, you're going to be taken advantage of.

You're right, discussing it is just stupid. My mistake.
> Russians are using old hardware, because the new stuff was all propaganda and doesn’t actually work

Maybe it works but it's ludicrously complex and expensive for them to manufacture, plus it's unproven reliability in combat means it's safer and cheaper to use what's been thoroughly tested.
