But why? Speaking as someone from a '3rd world country' [1], the traditional food preparation has been unchanged since the 1920s. The last great change in diet occurred when tomatoes and corn arrived from the America's to W. Africa, then later again when rice became a staple.

The US has a fantastical food culture because it's a large country that can natively produce almost every crop, and was historically agrarian. Adding to that, the US food culture always changes to wars, new immigrants, boycott, and government subsidies. Most countries aren't like that, and are significantly more conservative with dietary changes.

Land Value Tax advocates would suggest real estate speculation falls under 'exploit/steal from other people'. There's people that have become crazy rich because their ancestor was a sex worker that got given a big chunk of London land by the military dictator of the time. Did they or the ancestors that they inherited it from contribute anything to build London into the metropolis it is today, or was that all immigrants and working class people that were paying rent to the landowners the whole time they were increasing its worth? Real estate (edit to remove etymology claim than etymonline does not support) speculation is basically a small scale version of that.

Your 4 is natural resources, which they already mentioned. Hedgefund managers are basically parasites that live on parasites.
China has not permitted any investigation into the origins of the virus. And given the ease with which it spreads, and the fact that everyone was heads up about it in January, you'd think we'd have heard about a proliferation of cases elsewhere if it had begun elsewhere. That didn't happen. What we saw was a spread of cases in Wuhan, then in nearby China, then major cities worldwide. And as soon as it spread worldwide, China reported exactly 50% more deaths in one day [1], then stopped reporting deaths altogether. [2] [3]

Elon Musk was born privileged and is probably wrong about a whole bunch of things.

I don't think it's an appropriate or useful point of comaprison.
Probably he comes off as big ego, which we are hardwired to resist.

However I think a lot of that narcissism is confidence justified by his successes and track record, he’s created a lot of value for the world.
I have to agree with OP, I wish more sites respected that setting. I know not many people are afflicted by motion sickness in that kind though.

Assuming the article is talking about web links, not some new technology, why didn't it mention the rel attribute which seems essential for modelling everything talked about, as link text is too arbitrary? Also the wording seems to imply no need for semantic differentiation but calling something tag, comment or link implies a lot about the intention, so i assume the the article meant something closer to "you can implement everything mentioned with html links"? There were some projects in the linked data/ semantic web space that were very close to this. I would love to see a revisit of this idea with json instead of xml/html and ipfs instead of http.
The News.YC Ranking Formula
The cost per search query is incredibly small. You could probably have <1% premium users. If your search engine is used by a billion people a day, 10 million paying users are still enough to pay a few thousand people developing your product (depending on your location).

I believe products can work that way, offer premium service and features for the very few that need it and a basic service to anyone else. In the end, the free tier is cheaper than what you'd have to spend on marketing otherwise.
One way to keep your money making all profitable is to not waste money, for instance on cloud services that can be workarounded for cheaper.
Personally, I’ve done some of my best work in my 40’s and 50’s. And so different to anything I was capable of doing in my 20’s and 30’s.

The funniest thing is that I chose not only my university degree but also my optional modules based on a career choice that I moved on from well before I was 30. I don’t generally do regrets, but older me would tell younger me to relax a bit. There’s plenty of time and lots of things to try. Be prepared to be surprised!

> I am 53, I should be a manager or CEO by now

Some people your age are managers or CEOs but most people are not, and there's nothing wrong with that. If that is your goal, keep pushing towards it in spite of your issues, but you should also consider focusing less on career and more on just enjoying life.
The differece is that de Hond had convincing proof.

I agree you cannot go down the rabbit hole by checking what everyone is saying. But there are experts in other domains who can present proof in their domain. And then it's silly not to listen.
> This is the problem. Maybe it will, but as of yet nobody has figured out a practical application beyond "helping us appreciate nature" (replace nature with any chaotic system).

Why is this a problem? Doing maths purely for its own sake is as valid and useful as painting a picture, or cooking a delicious meal instead of just eating dry bread.

If that's not good enough for you, there are plenty of examples of maths that was considered useless at the time but ended up finding a use years, decades, or centuries later.

It looks like MetricFlow shines in constructing SQL queries on-demand, which means that it should be directly used by a BI tool, am I right with this?.. Generation of the static SQL (with CLI) for each report doesn't seem very usable on practice.

In other words, BI tools needs to have a special connector that automatically utilizes MetricFlow Python API (or CLI). What BI tools already can use MetricFlow in this way (open-source part of the project)?

Actually I'm asking about that as a BI tool vendor. We have added an ability to use custom connectors (web API) so potentially this kind of connector can use MetricFlow for SQL generation.
I don't know if this has been tested, but I'd venture a guess that this has something to do with how one flip flops.

Exhibit A:

"This fact X is correct and we as institution C Org have institutional knowledge that makes us right and anything otherwise wrong".

Changing this later to "This fact Y (that people were asking about, shh) is true. We won't mention that it contradicts X that much. We won't say we were wrong. We will say that as institution C Org, we have institutional knowledge that makes us right and anything otherwise is wrong"

VS

Exhibit B:

"We as A Org, have reason to believe that X is the most true thing we know given current knowledge. We acknowledge fact Y exists and are actively investigating it and its implications. For people searching for guidance, A Org recommends actions S,T, and U. We will continue to research and revise information where necessary"

---

I feel like Exhibit A, which is something I see a lot from government entities (confirmation bias makes me want to add "in the US") makes a changing of mind a thing of pride since you've staked a bet on it. A bet which usually is condescending and says "I'm right, you're wrong"

Exhibit B leaves the hatches open while still getting a firm message down based on today's knowledge.

Sadly there's no A/B testing we can turn to to know which approach would be better. But just out of sensibility, I wish more entities engaged in the latter approach

Interesting, I've never heard anyone say anything than 'ugh, it's UHT' (e.g. in hotels) before!

I wonder if it's at least partly the temperature, since UHT milk is shelf stable (for a good while anyway) you might be drinking it significantly warmer than milk from the fridge?

It's an island nation, and we're calling a tsunami "radically unlikely"? Given the time frames involved in cleaning up an event like what happened in Fukushima, once every 100 years is not very unlikely.

Money is not the only resource. Scientist time is another resource, and probably a lot more important when it comes to Physics. Any private venture such as this necessarily (a) takes up scientist time, (b) provides training to scientists that can be applied to other problems later on, (c) as a second order effect, molds the public's perception of science in a certain way.

(a), (b) or (c) could individually be positive or negative to society. And their net could be positive or negative.

I don't know what these values are for Wolfram's work, but we can definitely make this sort of nuanced analysis.
As I wrote, I'd consider being behind a NAT still having a public IP. It's a shared one but any web page will be able to see a public IP associated with this machine. That's different from servers that have no public IP and must route all traffic through a proxy.
Food at US farmer markets are cheaper if two conditions are met: firstly, going to an actual farmers market which tends to be far out of town, secondly, only buying in season produce without hydroponics.

In the US, I live about 100km outside of a major city, so the farms are next door and the food is tasty.

That said, it's really difficult to convince someone to drive 100km to get a normal ordinary head of lettuce with dirt attached to it so they set up stalls inside the city for top selling 'organic artisanal' items that come in nice display cases.
I upvoted because this person is so different from me. I would not use a .sh file for something like that even if I was paid to do so.

But if it works for them, who am I to argue. I do have a website which uses a static html generator that I have not maintained in years, mostly because I don't enjoy having to tangle with the more Operations aspects of it (which are very simple! but still not enjoyable).

I think the lesson that I got from this writeup is: try to optimize for enjoyment on your own personal stuff. Otherwise it will get deprioritized the moment you struggle with time.
Man these are some low-quality comments. You’d think Wolfram was torturing gerbils or something.

I don’t mind criticisms of my favorite thinkers. I enjoy watching someone being taken to task in the battle of ideas so to speak, but apparently something about Wolfram just rubs people the wrong way, because they seem to lose the ability to make cogent arguments after reading him. As a simple example of what a healthy discussion could look like: Wolfram didn’t believe black holes were real for the longest time, or at least, had some skepticism about that. One could’ve had a reasonable debate, pointing out where he may have erred (up until he changed his mind). Like a proper scientist does.

But vilifying him for wanting to create a research institute is absurd. I have never seen such petty anger at the idea of doing more scientific research.

He’s done a fantastic job creating a new model for understanding reality, some of which suggest interesting physical structures underlying our Universe. He’s changed my understanding of evolution completely with his insights on computational irreducibility and complexity.

And he’s laying the groundwork for understanding the meta-rules that undergird not just our Universe, but all possible Universes. It’s fantastic stuff.

The great Richard Feynman himself frequently collaborated with Wolfram and talked about Rule 30, the foundational insight that spurred Wolfram to create a New Kind of Science. Calling him delusional or a fraud is Wittengtein’s Ruler in action: It says far more about you than it does about him.

I always click on a Wolfram thread, and occasionally you do get interesting insights and even informed disagreements, but this is just disgraceful to be honest.

There’s true evil in the world. Truly despicable sins. Calibrate your outrage towards that.

If you disagree with Wolfram, read his work, steelman it, and show where it’s wrong in a way worthy of scientific skepticism and empiricism.

Otherwise you’re worse than what you think he is.

The point is that CCA is not applicable to one time pad. All you're saying is that OTP is not secure if you know the key. It doesn't matter what terms you use to describe it. It just doesn't mean anything beyond that.
> and even under these conditions, once again, zero deaths

I agree with your point, but for the record there's apparently been one death due to radiation (and possibly more to come): After the fighting was over, the russian soldiers seem to have camped in the Red Forest (absolutely the most contaminated area after the reactor structure itself https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Forest ), dug trenches and eaten local animals. And continued doing so for a month.
Show HN: Pipedream 2.0 – AWS Lambda + Zapier alternative
Hey HN! Pipedream is an integration and compute platform purpose-built for developers building workflows and connecting cloud services.

You can author workflows without writing any code: Pipedream supports over 700 integrated applications (GitHub, Slack, etc) [1] and all connectors are open source [2]. In addition, you can write any Node.js, Python, Go, or Bash code within workflows, extending the pre-built integrations with your own custom logic.

Since we launched Pipedream on HN [3], over 300k developers have used the product. Pipedream developers tell us consistently that they love the code-level control when they need it, and the built-in, no code integrations when they don't. But we’ve also heard consistent feedback that the product needed to be easier to use, support more language runtimes, and provide a native Git integration.

In Pipedream v2, we have re-imagined the entire product and key features, including:

- Multi-language support including Node, Python, Golang, and Bash
- Data Stores to store and retrieve data across steps & workflows
- Open source triggers and actions for 700+ applications
- Improved workflow builder to test and iterate without impacting live workflows
- Multiple triggers are now supported per workflow
- Improved forms and testing for rapid step-by-step development

We’re working on a GitHub integration now, which will let you manage workflow definitions as code. You can still use the Pipedream UI to author workflows, and use Pipedream’s pre-built integration components to build integrations, but you’ll be able to serialize those workflows to code. Think Terraform or CDK for app integrations. You can sign up for our waitlist below. [4]

My cofounder @dylburger and I will be here to answer any questions.

Indie means independant. (Activision-)Blizzard (which owns their distribution platform) is more indie than the small developers that would have gone bankrupt if Steam kicked them out (or shadowbanned them), and were forced to pay a ~30% tax.

And I'm pretty sure people did play (small developer) indie games before - just flash games alone...
As someone who has done thousands of hours of programming in a visual language (IAR Visual State), I hate it. The promise of an easy visual overview quickly drowns in a sea of edge cases.

A picture says a thousand words, sure, but precicely what those words are turns out to be important. We use text for programming because it allows us to express ourselves unambigously.

I sure would like to see more visual representations of text programs though, this seems like the best of both worlds to me.
The new type of nuclear reactor is the "EPR".

The first project, in Finland (Olkiluoto-3) was a disaster: massive overcosts, 12 years late, customer lost, penalties paid, builder (Areva) saved thanks to public money.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olkiluoto_Nuclear_Power_Plant#...

The second project, in France (Flamanville-3) is an ongoing disaster: massive overcosts (from 3,3 to 19,4 billions €, and counting), aleady 10 years late and counting
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flamanville_Nuclear_Power_Plan...

The third project, in China (Taishan-1 & -2) was officially 5 years late and 60% overcosts (and very probably not break even for the builder). After 1 year one of the 2 reactors was stopped mid-2021 after an incident.

The fourth project, in the U.-K. (Hinkley-Point C), started in 2018 and already announced overcosts and late delivery.

The article you recommend for resetting a device itself says:

"If you're using your Chromebook at work or school, you can't reset it."

So it likely does not apply here.
Malleable or not is a function property that doesn't make sense for OTPs. The problem is that while a OTP's outputs are determined by its inputs, a OTP's inputs are always different.

That said, a one time pads are non-malleable if you don't reuse the bits (and the bits are truly random). If you do reuse the bits, it's not a one time pad.

That said, there are no length issues with a One Time Pad.

Or rather, the length issue with one-time-pads is that you can't reuse pad bits, not just within a given message but across all messages that ever use that pad, hence the name ONE TIME Pad.

One time pads are necessarily as large as the data to be encrypted. (You might be able to get away with some fraction of the total number of "to encrypt" bits, but you can't reuse them.) Schemes which reuse "encryption bits" do not have that limit and are much smaller.

Really Cool addition. I just moved my lambdas from API Gateway to ALB (because of API G limit to 30s). I also use Serverless framework. It was a day of work, but developing with ALB is a bit more of pain. Maybe this would be better. Are there any timeout or mb constraints on these URLs?
> But what exactly is authentic

Something that is what it claims to be; “authentic” isn’t a free-standing adjective for cuisine (I mean, beyond that if it is food that it is intentionally prepared, it is “authentic cuisine”.) It applies only to some claim about the cuisine, e.g., that is of a particular origin. So, the question isn’t “is X dish authentic” but, e.g., “is X dish authentically Mexican”

> I ate “authentic” Alsatian food that would be entirely unheard of a thousand years ago in the region

That’s…not surprising. I mean, its not “authentic pre-1000-BCE Alsatian food”, then, but…

(OTOH, American-style tacos are an invention of Americans in the United States. They are authentic American cuisine, but not authentic Mexican cuisine. They are inspired by Mexican cuisine, and they have also inspired some things in newer Mexican and Mexican-American cuisine, but they themselves are just plain American.)
