There are some tools along these lines, but most people simply use Frescobaldi as an integrated editing environment for Lilypond. The most GUI-like tools (including Musescore) are based on MusicXML which is intended as a semantic representation of sheet music, usable for more than typesetting; unfortunately, there isn't good interoperability between Lilypond and MusicXML right now, only some hacked-together attempts at basic import and export.

A major use-case of RSS readers is to have a local, eternal copy of a producer's content to read at your own leisure. I have content in my RSS reader that I cherish from blogs that aren't even online anymore. That I don't need to visit poorly designed websites is only a tertiary perk—I don't need to visit the origin, ever.

There's not much to argue here, though. It's just a different offering. For example, I use https://sumi.news/ (created by some HNer) and certainly don't use it read the entire history of every news website. Nothing wrong with that.

> As I said above, restoring working of existing fabs will require rebuilding the entire Asian supply chain for chemicals, spare parts, consumables, and services.

As I said, we produce a lot of high-end semiconductors in the USA: the supply chains are already there, they are simply more expensive. If consumer semiconductor production had to move back to the states, we would have to repurpose those supply chains, they probably would never be as cheap, but we are talking 10 or 20%, not something horribly crippling to the economy.
> That says global 'consumption' is about 80000 TWh a year. Incoming solar energy is about 1700 times that

Assuming that you still want oceans to work, about 2/3rds of that is not available, which get us to 500x. You also want land-based plants to work, which gets us to <250x and much of the remainder is unsuitable, so let's call it <100x.

"make equipment" through end-use solar is <20%, so we're down to <20x.

I would also add that any search boxes are typically keys to the kingdom if you're scraping shops/job boards or similar things.

Bit strange for the DNC to give DeSantis any spotlight over this. As we all know, any publicity is good publicity when you're small. DeSantis, who is a 2024 presidential hopeful, can only benefit from the DNC pushing back against this, given that he doesn't currently have the notoriety he needs to win the presidency.

Given that Abbott has an analogous bill over in Texas, it's odd that the DNC wouldn't zero in on the Texas bill and ignore the Florida bill to the best of their ability.

> What does it really mean when inflation is going crazy, but also many businesses are making really absurd, record profits?

That's...normal.

Outside of stagflation (which is exceptional among inflationary conditions, hence the special name) inflation tends to be positively correlated with economic growth which is positively correlated with profits

Inflation suddenly becoming an issue right around the same time that a rapid bounce back from the COVID slowdown took hold wasn't a weird coincidence.

It is extremely unlikely to ever find any solution to the tin whiskers problem, other than alloying tin with toxic elements, i.e. either lead or antimony.

The reliability problem could be solved only by replacing soldering with another method of making electrical connections during PCB assembly, e.g. thermal/ultrasonic welding of copper on copper, metal deposition in vacuum etc.

While replacing soldering is possible, any known alternative method would hugely increase the price for the assembly of electronic equipment.

Soldering is not used because it is a good method for making electrical connections, but because it is extremely cheap, allowing many thousands of connections to be made simultaneously, during a pass of a PCB through a reflow oven, or over a soldering wave.

Is there a way to calculate exactly how much this affects the every day person? Specifically what I'm looking for is a table breaking down the costs by category.

For example - I don't really drive that much on a day to day basis compared to the average American, and so if it's a huge 50% increase in gas prices yoy, that over indexes the inflation number for me because I might drive 80% less than the average American. So I would assume that inflation is really <7.9% for me.

If a business' costs go up, they can raise their prices to maintain their margins.

If the main components are food and energy, then the things you listed are less likely to be the causes. Though energy prices could be a reflection (pre-Ukraine) of more economic activity generally as people stop staying at home and (e.g.) travel.

Wonderful links, thank you so much.

Vampire uses a portfolio of strategies, including the application of an SMT solver (Z3). This link goes into some detail: http://smt2019.galois.com/papers/tool_paper_20.pdf

This is the most relevant bit for our conversation:

> There are only two cases where Vampire can return sat: Firstly in UF and secondly, if Vampire produces a ground problem after preprocessing it may pass this problem to Z3 and report its result (possibly sat) directly.

Essentially this refers to model building, i.e. solving existential problems. That's where SAT solvers excel. This includes producing counter-examples which are extremely useful in industry.
Why would anyone try to "hide their deep knowledge of Postgres"?

Back in high school I used OneNote and had a pretty good MS equation editor setup. Most things can be done in a similar way to LaTeX, e.g. writing \theta for greek letters, writing a slash for fractions. With a few "replace with" "macros" I could write quite fast, probably faster than I can in LaTeX these days after about the same amount of practice, and almost never had to use the GUI.

These days my notes are all Markdown with inline LaTeX for math. I haven't yet found an editor that support "global" LaTeX macros/shorthand. Things like matrices can be bit of a pain, but then I haven't written any since linear algebra.

In hunter-gatherer groups, life was, and is, undeniably hard, but their lifespan was not as short as the numbers press us to think. If you were a hunter-gatherer and you made it to adolescence, there was a strong likelihood that you would live a long and healthy life – not so different from modern humans.

Modern life does have many benefits, but when it persuades us to use transport, sit in a chair at work, or watch TV for extended periods, we increasingly have to turn to medicine for solutions because these habits are killing hundreds of millions of us each year.

It has nothing to do with tensor fields, uniform/constant tensors still obey the proper coordinate transformations, that's the defining property of any tensor. (With non-uniform tensor fields, covariant derivatives also pick up a correction, but that's a separate thing.)

TensorFlow "tensor"(and most other use of "tensor" in programmer jargon) is not a tensor at all, it's just a multidimensional array.

"inferior batteries" how? AAAs charge effectively instantly because you can switch them out instantly. The magic mouse even originally ran on two AAs! A pair of rechargable eneloop pro AAs have 2500 mAH capacity at 1.2 V. So they would have similar capacity as the battery pack in the modern magic mouse.

And it's not like I'm the only one who can't remember to charge them. The linked article mentions the author has a very similar problem.

You would be surprised to find out that some web servers are capable of detecting browser emulation through curl or Python’s requests lib. Try programmatically scrolling through Instagram photos. It will work if you use curl, but it will not work using Python’s requests lib. Not sure how they detect it - maybe related to timing of packets.
> ... the balance was ~1800-2000 when exercising 5 times a week including 3x1 hour long weightlifting sessions.

I see you added a couple more details to your post. Weight lifting sessions really aren't that productive as far as calorie burn is concerned. I pulled a random 30m weight workout and my avg HR was just over 50% resulting in approximately 130kCal/hr burned (estimated based on HR, actual could be a bit higher but unlikely to be higher than 200/hr), which does not come even close to cycling. My average calorie burn for a recovery ride is about 500kCal/hr, 575kCal/hr for endurance, 750kCal/hr for tempo and 975kCal/hr for threshold. Recovery/endurance are sustainable basically for an entire day (barring discomfort and boredom), tempo for 3-5hrs and threshold for <1hr (the 975kCal/hr effort was a 40 minutes). Cycling values are calculated from measured power output and and assume approximately 25% metabolic efficiency. My numbers are also on the lower side because I'm smaller (smaller typically means less power and so fewer calories).

> 2500kcal was on the high end of my bulking intake when I wanted to add weight for my lifting.

I would be surprised if I averaged less than 2500, though I haven't tracked in a long time. I can always feel when my intake isn't enough. My workout related output is 5000-7500+/week which is probably higher than average, though the low end is fairly well in-line with someone who runs/rides 5+ times per week. To your point, 2500 for an 'average' male is more than likely on the very high side.

Environmentalists can only wish that people were disposing of their electronics because of tin whiskers. Long lived consumer electronics needs a cultural overhaul more than it needs leaded solder.
Okay, so here's what's what. Tin whiskers have been known for ~100 years. Originally solder was just tin. Lead was added specifically in the 30s or so to avoid tin whiskers [1] though nobody knows why that works. RoHS/lead-free has been around for ~20 years and there hasn't been a definitive solution.
