Yes but thunderf00t is not a good place to hear it from.
i mean, if they hadnt taken their repo private on accident, i probably wouldnt ever have heard of them.. i never really was interested in what the most watched or starred repos were, but something better than curl? yes please, may i have another?
> I'm sure like usual when this comes up, some people will come reply with "you can't make out the difference anyway", which is just not true.

It is true for those people. No doubt that's not true for you, but you're not everyone. With fairly small screens (14" is small compared to a 24" desktop monitor) I genuinely don't notice the difference. I'm sure if you would put two screens next to each other I'd be able to spot differences, but in daily use? Not really. I used to have a employer-provided 15" Dell XPS with some >1080p resolution (I forgot which exactly) and I really didn't notice.

There are downsides, too: the computer has to work harder to render all those pixels and the battery life is shorter; my battery life was noticeably shorter than my previous almost identical XPS with a "normal" 1080p screen, so it's a trade-off.

Having an option would be nice for those who care about it of course, but I suspect a large section of people just don't care, and especially as a fairly small shop you can't do everything.
You aren't wrong, perhaps just not looking at the whole model.

A cheap computer may not be a 'competitor' to Apple, but it could be seen as a substitute - another of Porters 5 forces. So, how does Apple position themselves against cheaper computers in their market - by positioning themselves as a quality/luxury item.
It's not the size that matters, but how you use it
> Yeah, in that light, these social conservatives do seem pretty bad.

as always, the out group is awful.
Opposition to nuclear power isn't a political ideology. You aren't for or against nuclear power because you don't generally like the people who are against nuclear power.

I don't see the major arguments against nuclear power being negated by either climate change or the war in Ukraine. So no, there is no mistake. Nuclear power isn't the right way forward for Germany.
Theories in economics are not falsifiable, thus economics is not hard science. Some would argue it’s not science at all, since it provides no objective information.
For me personally, I definitely do notice the difference; I just don't care about it enough for it to be worth the downsides you mentioned (plus the downside of worse FPS when gaming).
> SpaceX's Starlink satellites are involved in about 1,600 close encounters between two spacecraft every week, ~50 % of all such

Sensationalist garbage. Starlink satellites have automated collision avoidance.
Oh right, nobody ever thought to include the cost and effects of producing the solar panels!!

I'm joking of course.
There are two happy days for a boat owner: the day he buys it and the day he sells it.
Damn right. This is cowardly bullying. It's morally repugnant. These people should be free to make their online penguin game without fear of police violence at the behest of a mega-conglomerate. That ain't freedom.
I’d highly recommend Most Secret War which covers the role of Scientific Intelligence in Britain’s battle with Germany during WWII.

I'll also add for one more piece of irony that the "Moskva" used to be called the "Slava", and was built in Mykolaiv in Ukraine (when it was part of the Soviet Union).

In fact Russia as a country now has no shipyards capable of building anything larger than frigates, so this missile cruiser is actually something beyond the technology of Russia to produce right now. All of the Soviet Union's (and Russia's) aircraft carriers were in fact built in Mykolaiv as well for example. Their main class of Aircraft Carrier in the cold war was the "Kiev" (Kyiv) class.
Because Putin probably received assurance from his yes-men that the army is in tip top condition and they were so disconnected from reality, they probably didn't expect those down the food chain to be as thieving as they were at the top.

I assume Putin has already gulaged some scapegoats that his cronies found responsible for this current mess.
To be fair, the US democrat party would be considered middle right to most of the rest of the world.
just do soft deletes that can be undone... seems so easy..
It says only 5% had usable DNA to test. Maybe male DNA just holds up better over that kind of timespan so the bias is in how much of it is usable.
Indeed. Yet another reason why we must rally against such efforts.
To be fair the Moskva was the most capable radar/AA platform for the fleet. Without it they are also more vulnerable to manned/unmanned aircraft.
Github is built with MVC. On rails no less. Where problems like soft delete are hard, or even impossible to solve (in scale).

Yet there are many architectures beside MVC. Many of them decades old. Proven. Established. Yet unknown to devs who picked up a rails book on day 1 and never looked back (I've been guilty of that for years).

This particular problem is a textbook candidate for Command Pattern. The problem of undo is solved naturally in any event-sourced setup (git is even sourced, and moving through history a prime feature). Probably more architectures that I'm less familiar with, solve 'undo' as well.

But we are stuck with the web, backends in 2022, being built on MVC frameworks like Rails, where solving such issues is tough and complex. So we are stuck with a huge amount of warning dialogs to 'solve' this.

Point being: choose your architecture well, based on your needs and the tradeoffs. Don't just grab the next fancy framework, because that will decide for you, if, and how you solve things like 'soft delete' or 'undo'.

Caste system still exists in the elite institutes of India.
It's... social media.

Life doesn't revolve around social media. Social media didn't exist two decades ago, and things were just fine. Multiple social media platforms have come and gone, and things are just fine.

It's a freaking media platform, nothing else.
Of course it's true for them and they should go with that.

It's a tired myth that "the human eye can't perceive the difference and you don't either". We're all different, with different needs and preferences.
> They figured it was more probable that young male mammoths were much more likely to travel solo, away from the wisdom and protection of matriarchal herds, similar to the way elephant societies function today.

Anecdotally, when I went hiking in Yellowstone two years ago down a long nature trail through the woods, I was surprised to see a large male bison trodding alone in the opposite direction down the trail, towards me. I slowly backed up towards the tree line just to give him some space to pass, but I was rather surprised to see a herd animal by himself in such a vast park like Yellowstone with such a big population of bison.

I assume that this behavior in males is probably essential. It's risky for a herd animal to travel alone. However if a male is successful in migrating to another herd, and earning his way in, it improves the cross-pollination of dna. Also, males in the animal kingdom regularly push each other out to secure local dominance over local females. Many are therefore forced to leave as well.
Doctors are generally poor at questioning their assumptions. You constantly hear of cases where many doctors missed the actual problem for a long time.

Most cases come under standard frameworks and diagnosis will be correct, however if you are the exception then tough luck in getting a right diagnosis on time
I have seen a lot of stubborn fools who keep claiming nuclear power is safe and the impossible accidents either don't happen or aren't really that bad.

"Much of anything" is a malevolent exaggeration. Germany is basically changing its entire stance on military spending, sending tons of weapons and other supplies to Ukraine, taking in hundreds of thousands of refugees and risking its economy by enacting strong sanctions and getting off imports from Russia eventually. For some people that is "not much of anything", but I suspect there is an agenda...
Airport approach paths are usually above lower income neighborhoods, where residents don't have the time, money, or energy to make this happen.

Same pattern appears for other externalized environmental costs. Dump it in the poor neighborhood/city/state/country.
Yeah, Pulseaudio network sinks are useful once everything is properly set up. My media system was a LibreELEC that played movies, and the high end audio system was plugged to it. But I'd rather have that sound when playing some YT video on my laptop: just select media center sink and you have it.

It's really a shame there's nothing multiplatform just like that except for, maybe, JACK.
Aren’t you omitting something here? Like the fact that the step up in basis happens after the inheritance tax is paid?

If I buy stock for $10 million and in 40 years it appreciates to $70 million (an average 5% annual growth), and then I die, my kids will pay inheritance tax on the $60 million capital gain. Then the new basis will become $70 million. What exactly do you propose it to be?
In short, the reason you wouldn’t buy it right now, despite believing its outlook is rosy, is because you think it’ll go lower in the short to medium term. Which is more or less what all the analysts are predicting about tech stocks broadly.

I’ve given up on him; probably won’t even buy it. Yeah, authors don’t owe their readers anything, but if you start a trilogy waiting checks watch 11 years for the final instalment, after you said you’re finished before book 2 was even out is either a fuck you to your readers, or much more likely: he can’t finish it.

Not finishing it is okay, but be honest!
GitHub probably should show the stars in the warning UI

In this particular case the stars would have been a useful clue, but in the majority of similar cases the wouldn't be any stars. It would be a useless and redundant signal.

Ask HN: Whatever Happened to Elixir?
Hi all

I've been a great supporter and a fan of the Elixir language and having built huge codebases of my side projects in it, I could feel the robustness and also enjoy the general nature of FP. There were, times when things felt more difficult and challenging compared to Ruby, which was something I was very proficient at before then.
Looks like the trend for Elixir Posts and activity on this forum is in the decline now, was wondering what happened to it?! Are people moving away from it already?
The author argues the model lacks dynamism leading to inagile strategies which are incompatible with high velocity industries like tech. Makes sense to me.
what about just directly helping people in your local area, your neighborhood, your city? it may not change the world, but for these people it would mean a lot. i am living in Europe, currently there are refugees from the Ukraine coming to my country, so I help them to get registered, to find housing, to get some basic stuff, and just feel welcome in the new country. that may not sound like a lot, but if you're fleeing from the war and have lost everything, even a little bit counts.
I wonder what influences gimmicks like these have on search machine indexing.
I would also take glee in this, were it not for the substantial (presumably at least partially functional) nuclear arsenal held by this dog being backed into a corner…
I know, I'm seething at how many people are supporting this person.

I would be on his side too if he started with accepting his part in this and took responsibility but he clearly blames GitHub for everything and learned nothing from this. Such arrogance, let's see if HTTPie will have a nice warning every time you try to do a http delete command.

I've done something similar to this and took responsibility. I accidentally deleted an Azure Resource Group with the CLI tool. It just says "Are you sure you want to do this? Y/n" Doesn't even tell you what you're deleting. Oh whoops all the resources within that resource group are now irreversibly gone now.

My lessons learned was, when doing something potentially dangerous no matter how unimportant you think it is, slow down and take your time.

Things such as making a repo private or deleting things are relatively infrequent.
It doesn't hurt to take a few minutes to carefully check all the variables before doing anything. You aren't losing much time in the grand scheme of things. Now he's definitely lost more time. Was it worth the few seconds you would have saved if you were on the right thing?
A friend who owns a boat described it as "a hole in the water that you pour money into."
Yes, for defense, it is great (on the other side of this scale would be Israel that lacks any strategic depth and thus must defend the border regions at almost any cost).

The Napoleonic wars were yet another great example of a strategic retreat and bleeding the enemy dry in the endless frozen steppe.

But for attacking someone else, the situation reverses and now it is Russia that faces serious logistical problems correlated to its sheer size.
Well, a lot of Soviet military, naval and aerospace tech that's now used by Russia was developed and built in what is now Ukraine. They had many top design bureaus there.

Which is why Russia felt cheated for having an independent Ukraine that's not a Russian puppet state as it meant the loss of highly important defense supply chains.
No idea, just saying it's a possible explanation along with all their other guesses.
That's true.

However, it does mean it is not "obviously" true, and you need to provide a compelling argument for why whatever you believe is actually the case instead of just asserting it.
The 1977 camera mentioned halfway through the video might have been the first consumer camera that superimposes the date, but it was common for aerial photos to have metadata like that added to the margins, like https://map.geoportail.lu/aerial/1977_30000/pdfs/0181.pdf

>So far, Western economic sanctions have hastened the decline of the use of the US dollar as a means of exchange, especially among Russia, India, and China.

Western economic sanctions literally prevent Russian financial accounts containing US dollars from being accessed, right?

Framing this as a problem for the dollars is odd; it's hard to put my finger on why.
In my opinion the opposition to nuclear power is not anti-scientific. It is bullshit to just label all the proponents scientists and the opposition non-scientists. There are two factions arguing on scientific grounds.

That there is another level to the discussion, the fear of nuclear disasters is another topic. It is impossible to say where the "rational" level of fear is. Scientists have been wrong about the risks too often. With the huge downsides, people will gladly err on the side of caution.

My arguments are examples why the "anti-scientific" argument is just BS. The fear is not always rational, but always legitimate. It is all about risk tolerance.
> Green is good, but it’s also more focused on the environment than on geopolitics. Maybe it’s biased more towards the environment than it should be in a geopolitical crisis?

I think the author has this backwards. Climate change will cause more and more crises. Those will distract us from fighting climate change and therefore accelerate it further.

Keeping a cool head and not forgetting about the environment during war is exactly what I expect from a serious politician. It is not about prioritizing one over the other, it is about seeing them in context.
I notice the difference so much that I have a visceral reaction to low res displays, almost claustrophobic as if a screen door is covering my eyes. Can't stand them.

Russian flagship sinks – military

The missile cruiser Moskva went down in the Black Sea while being towed to port, the Russian Defense Ministry said

The Russian missile cruiser Moskva, the flagship of the Black Sea Fleet, sank while being towed into port amid stormy sea conditions, the Defense Ministry said on Thursday. According to the Russian military, the warship’s hull had been damaged by an ammunition explosion, itself caused by a fire on board, on Wednesday.

Ukrainian officials claimed their forces had struck the vessel with anti-ship missiles. The Pentagon said it could not confirm the claim. A US drone circled above the cruiser on Thursday, monitoring its progress towards Sevastopol.
I have to admit I know nothing of launching stuff into space. Whilst that's interesting my first thought on watching their video was comparing it to a railgun. No payload just a solid projectile at high speed. I don't know the viability of that but it seems like a logic other usecase.
Depends on your definition of “soon”. In a volatile market like the current one, tons of people sell stock in the short term despite believing the long term outlook is good. The simplest reason is to go into cash to avoid the worst of the downturn.
As I understand it, the Russian aircraft carrier gets towed all the time. So that might not be so far fetched.

1440p is perfect for a 14". It has a close enough dot pitch to my 4k 27" displays, so that I don't have to do any weird scaling when connected to external monitors. My other laptop it 4k and it's a pain in the ass to tune it so that things are not too big or small across displays.

5) this was a missile cruiser designed to give air cover to other ships. There is no way two Ukrainian modules are supposed to go through it’s air cover. I read the send TB2’s along to overwhelm the air defenses, but this is just utterly embarrassing.
I have found that I can get the doctor where I want by stating the opposite. It works surprisingly well. For example, my sciatic nerve kills me again, I have had that for 10 years now. Doctor moved, so new doctor. Normally, even if it's the same practice, it takes a while for the new doctor to come to the same conclusion. Which is good, he's doing his homework.

But, if I make carefully chosen assertions, which the doctor will always contradict, I get him where I want him much quicker.

In a sense, it works for me, but it's a testament to the relationship doctors have with their patients: patients are so stupid, the reflex is to contradict then each time.

Not sure it qualifies as hubris, but it's close.
Only reason he filed paperwork this time is last time he got fined. So his calculation was lets do paperwork and avoid fine.. Does anyone really think 54.20 is a serious offer or its just in his regular pattern of 420 behavior? I can almost guarantee it will never go through even he knows it. Thats why its his best and final offer.

Do you really think Twitter is sudden interest to him away from Tesla/SpaceX or Hyperloop? last time he was in "Web" was PayPal and thats ages ago.. it Never has interested him probably very boring. He was never into social. he's just thinking this as a quick way to make 15-20% return in few months and have fun. He got bored of pumping Dogecoin, now he's on twitter trying to make money, even though he does not need it. its just fun for him to send people in loop and trigger bunch of folks.

Disinformation is where the information being propagated is done with the intent to deceive.

Misinformation is whereby the information being propagated is not done with the intent to deceive BUT it does run counter to what is widely known as true.

The soldiers being alive, whilst being announced as dead was not done with intent to deceive (presumably), and did not run counter to widely known information, therefore it was neither disinformation nor misinformation. It was simply incorrect due to the chaos of war. Not all incorrect statements are “misinformation”.
Slightly off topic, but in the live demo it looks like model model wasn't really trained with images of a shovel that is diagonal in the frame, with the tip in top right and the base bottom left. The model detects all kinds of things but not the shovel - a spoon, a rifle, baseball bat etc
I've heard a lot of supporters who generally disregard the possibility of future such accidents happening. Certainly you wouldn't want it to happen anywhere near you?

And there is no clear, scientific reasoning that nuclear power is safer than the best mix of alternatives. First of all, any calculation to that regard is horrendously complicated on the nuclear side. Second of all, it always depends on the likelihoods observed in the past. There better be nobody sabotaging a nuclear plant, or stealing waste material for a dirty bomb and so on. Because that's impossible to calculate, so it is entirely reasonable to err on the side of caution.
