This thread does hit on one thing that's actually really important here and it's the age of the chicken. There's an optimal age to hit for flavor. For anyone that cares about this, it's of course a good idea to get a more standard chicken at the store, but if you can find a local farm to buy chicken from you're much better off because you can often specify slaughter windows. The difference in flavor is massive, and it makes a significant difference in recipes.

A lot of what is unhealthy about meat in current times is that for flavor reasons it has to have a very large amount of salt used when preparing it. This is true across different meat types, but perhaps most true for chicken. Chicken is often injected with flavoring components or with salt water, or brine bathed prior to cooking as part of the process to make it taste good. All of this is unnecessary if you buy quality chickens from a farm. Instead, you need just a pinch or so of salt under the skin on each side of the bird before you cook it (salt won't penetrate the skin) and you can dry brine it for a few hours in the fridge like you would with a good steak. Salt, of course, is a critical flavoring component for nearly any type of cooking, but the amount of salt in our food continues to increase over time to make up for the complete lack of flavor in the raw ingredients.

They have a mention of Julia Child in the thread. IF you ever get into classic French cooking, it's all about focusing on "using the best ingredients possible and then trying not to mess it up." That is, if you use high quality and flavorful ingredients, you don't need to drown them out in strong flavors. Just some fresh green herbs and a small amount of sea salt is all that's needed to season chicken if it's good, and the subtle flavors of the herbs will really enhance the chicken flavor without overpowering it.
> I'm not talking about the standards, but the marketing names. "USB 3.0" is now "USB 3.2 Gen 1"

No, it's not.

If you implement it from the legacy USB 3.0 spec then you don't care about it. It's SuperSpeed, and that's it.

If instead you implement it to comply with the USB3.1 spec then you have two separate transfer modes specified in the 3.1 standard: the legacy Gen1 and the newly-added Gen2.

If instead you implement it based on the USB 3.2 spec then that standard specifies four distinct transfer modes: the Gen1 specified in USB3.2, the Gen2 specified in USB3.2, and the new ones.

> just because the USB Consortium said so.

Who exactly do you think the USB consortium is? I mean, how do you think a standard is put together?
> Python is already the de facto replacement for Matlab in academia and engineering.

Maybe in some disciplines, but in control engineering, basically everybody still uses Matlab. The python control systems libraries are a cheap joke compared to what Matlab offers.

The benefit of Julia vs c++ is questionable. Every time you run your program, you have to wait for it compile anyway with Julia. With c++, I pay this cost once, not every run. They keep claiming time-to-first-plot is better. When I tried it a couple weeks ago, it still took __minutes__ to produce a single, simple plot. JIT makes Julia not only frustrating to use, but worse, makes it unsuitable for integration into real time systems. So for a lot of applications, I have to rewrite the algorithm anyway whether I use Julia or python. So something like castor (especially with it's integrated plotting!) could save me time from re-writing.

As for the compilers and makefiles? Well, Julia's module/include/import system is worse. At least with a makefile, all the state is in contained within the local build directory, not some global cache julia magically creates.
> When I receive a call from a number outside my contacts that has never called me before I want a dialog to pop up after I close the call that asks me if I want to block the caller or whitelist him

Is this not standard on phones? Terminating a call on my Galaxy s10 shows me options to block number add to contacts, and redial. I know Samsung's UI has remained a couple years upstream of stock Android (and many yrs upstream of IOS) for the entirety of the smartphone era, but I thought this wouldve been a big standard feature.

I tried Unity for a while for 2d game development and really hated the workflow, so I floundered for a couple years trying to figure out what path to take for some of my project ideas.

I've shipped 2 games in Phaser, but did not like the experience at all- optimization was a nightmare and structuring a non-trivial project was surprisingly hard. I've since switched to Godot which has been a dream so far. I would use Godot for 3d development as well, but I realize that anyone that prioritizes visual fidelity will likely look elsewhere. Godot 4 will have huge improvements there, but nothing at the level of Unreal or even Unity.
Sure, but I am choosing to (loosely) pick a side. The only evidence we have is their claim, and I'll believe it unless better evidence comes to light against it.
The older I've gotten, the more I've become aware that history is simply a matter of trust. No matter who you're dealing with, a large group of people will ignore facts or historical details simply on the basis of deciding that they don't trust the source.

It's probably the main reason that people spend so much time attacking news outlets rather than the specific stories coming out of them (ie, Fox/CNN) to call out a specific bias.

It just means that if you actually want the entire picture, you're going to have to go look for it and then look up citations yourself. In theory, something like Wikipedia should be the ideal way to handle this but even then you end up with "edit wars" as people actively work to remove details with valid citations.

As a reader of a subject where you don't already deeply know the information, you have no way of knowing what's missing. This allows people to selectively include facts while leaving out others. All the "facts" may well be accurate, but the author has opted to skew the context.

I call it the Bob and Tim rule.

"Tim punched Bob."

"Bob punched Tim."

"Tim and Bob shook hands and made up."

If you only report "Bob punched Tim", you've shared a fact but entirely skewed the context and that's why knowing an author's bias matters. It can give you an idea of how much harder you need to look for what's missing.

The simple rule I've adopted when reading any headline or history that includes something bad that a person or country did is to ask, "What caused them to do that? Why?" Cause and effect works with history too. Read history with a lens where you assume people are good by default and ask "Why" when people do something that seems bad/evil. It will often point you in the direction where you need to be digging a lot more to get the complete picture.

It's not extremism -- it's representing a value -- of being able to access, learn, and change the code that we run and use to improve our lives.

One perspective would say "RMS/Free-software advocates are saying only free games should be played" -- but another is:

"If we want to have access to the code for the games we play (as a value), what economic, legal and technical infrastructure (rather than depending on current copyright, DRM, etc) do we need?" If that's something we want, how do we advocate for it?

This filtering ability took call and text spam from aggravating to almost nonexistent. I think I will buy Pixels just because of it.

I especially like the feature to "screen" a call that looks like spam, the small number that get through to me. It almost always is spam and I've wasted some of their seconds. It's not much, but I now feel like a victor rather than helpless. :)
Not the OP but I remember people had a bit of a reaction to maths and other textbooks when I was at school 30+ years ago in a rural part of the UK.

The people in the examples were usually non-traditional British names like Deepak, Surinder, Jamal etc. yet such names would be very rare in a place with little immigration at that time. There would only be a handful of non British-white kids in a school of thousands.

The reaction was far from outrage just a "well I guess we are doing this now". As a kid it seemed a little silly and forced but it was my first exposure to those names in print and helped normalise such identities. I'd say it was a positive thing if a bit over done / not subtle. I'd hate to think what would have happened if the parents had mumsnet or twitter back then...

>why would you use that argument?

Because dynamics like the Jevon's paradox exist. Marginal efficiency or sustainability improvements generally just lead to increased consumer demand. This is exactly the dynamic of the traditional car engine. It's why despite the fact that green energy output has increased by several magnitudes in terms of production, globally we've only lowered carbon dependency by marginal amounts. Gains are being eaten by increased consumption. In fact this applies even to green energy infrastructure itself which often needs to run for a long time to pay for its own construction.

This is a small experiment inspired by the coreutils Rust port, wondering on how far one can get if only Rust tools are used. Currently it only consists of a tiny selection of statically compiled binaries using musl libc but in the future I want to try to compile without musl and use relibc or the mustang approach of skipping libc entirely. Also, currently a lot of common tools are lacking, there is no "ip" nor "ps" installed and a "curl" drop-in is also not present yet. See the TODO list ;)

Very likely the Android device doesn't advertise any particular USB spec. If anything it might have a logo for the minimum spec it supports. You can put USB controllers in a device and not worry about any USB-IF if you don't use any USB branding on the box, IIRC any licenses owed are covered in the price of the ICs.

The logical connection in USB doesn't care about the physical connection. Your phone could just have some soldered leads for all the protocol cares.
This is low effort and specious. One person losing a job or appointment isn't the same as people being forced out of careers entirely or (literally) sentenced to years in a gulag because someone didn't like them.

There is surely space for reasoned discussion about "cancel culture" and its effects on public discourse that doesn't involve likening a bunch of hippies on Twitter to the Soviet repression machine. Can we please start being better about this?

Windows privilege escalation bugs are so unbelievably common. We just fixed one in our MSI installer, and when I went to search for the CVE there were like 10 recent ones from different things including various VPN clients and shell extension apps.

The culprit is usually the insane Windows ACL permission system. Unix permissions look like "rwxr-xr-x" while a very simple example of a Windows permission is:

D:(A;OICI;FA;;;SY)(A;OICI;FA;;;WD)

Windows is a single user OS. If you are depending on its local user permission access control to be anything more than advisory you are going to have a bad time.

As someone who has heard the name but never looked into his message until now, is Stallman always so gung-ho on "All software should be free software"? Specifically, when I hit his comments regarding video games, I was quite shocked. "Unless the game is non-free — then it's bad for you, if you play it.", if that's the case, then is any entertainment that comes at a monetary fee bad? How ahout proprietary software for niche fields? Perhaps I need to do some more research on his stance, but from this article it seems that he doesn't believe that the software industry should exist (using industry defined as "a sector of economy").
I have a suspicion that banning teaching evolution is the ultimate goal here. Or maybe just getting rid of public schools altogether, but leaving in place a mandate for children to get an 8th grade education. Religious schooling will always be cheaper, since we don't tax churches, so all the voucher money will go to schools that teach creationism.

When it comes to anything to do with race, gender, sexuality or politics is better to do research elsewhere than ask HN. This is the relevant text from the first couple of paragraphs of Wikipedia's page on CRT:

Critical race theory (CRT) is a cross-disciplinary intellectual and social movement of civil-rights scholars and activists who seek to examine the intersection of race, society, and law in the United States and to challenge mainstream American liberal approaches to racial justice. The word critical in its name is an academic term that refers to critical thinking, critical theory, and scholarly criticism, rather than criticizing or blaming people.

A key CRT concept is intersectionality—the way in which different forms of inequality and identity are affected by interconnections of race, class, gender and disability. Scholars of CRT view race as a social construct with no biological basis. One tenet of CRT is that racism and disparate racial outcomes are the result of complex, changing, and often subtle social and institutional dynamics, rather than explicit and intentional prejudices of individuals.

CRT scholars argue that the social and legal construction of race advances the interests of white people at the expense of people of color, and that the liberal notion of U.S. law as "neutral" plays a significant role in maintaining a racially unjust social order, where formally color-blind laws continue to have racially discriminatory outcomes.

And yet, blue state liberal democrats are clamoring to move to Florida. New Yorkers and Californians trying to escape their failed states with outrageous taxes, is it any wonder then that states like Florida and Texas are purposely trying to seem as unattractive as possible to these people.

I think it's a little disingenous to compare the load of an electric car to "one lightbulb". One lightbulb is probably 100W, 200W if you're pushing it. The car is probably drawing the max 1500-2000W it can from the plug
> Agreed, but this is such a low bar that even iOS meets it. Apple has never attempted to restrict users' ability to compile and run source code. In fact, for almost a decade now the automatic signing in Xcode will sign and provision your compiled code, even if you didn't have a verified and paid-up developer account.

The first two sentences are false.

Apple only lets iOS run signed apps. Self-built apps must be signed, and online signatures are provided from Apple. They can stop at any time. These apps will also not stay running 24/7, forcing you into Apple services if you want basic functions like messaging notifications.

You need to identify yourself to Apple (even without a paid developer account) to get an Apple ID to be able to request signatures to run those compiled programs.

That's exactly what google phones do. They are far ahead on this front.

I bought an iPhone this time around because I wanted to play with lidar and because google defaulted hard on the "free picture storage" promise. There's a lot to like about the iPhone, but anti-spam is a glaring exception. Holy shit, I assumed that Apple would at least have made an effort, even if wasn't their core expertise and the result wasn't quite as good as google's, but it's like they didn't even try. Meanwhile google put this into production years ago and they have iterated and tuned it to the point that the spam problem is almost completely buttoned down.

If you are experienced in JavaScript, switching to Python is not that hard to do. The languages' similarities outweigh their differences. I have been accused of writing Python with a heavy JavaScript accent.

The harder part of that transition is environment issues. Switching between Node environments is a solved problem. Include an .nvmrc in your project and you're done. It's very much not a solved problem in python-land.

Sun has such a positive effect on my mood I don't know how I did it there for so long.

> "I think that medical data is a really good example of a use case that we don't want to work on," says Elbaz. "In order to model medical diseases, you need real doctors to help you. "There's a lot of specialized knowledge that you would need in order to create this medical synthetic data. Even though medical data is extremely valuable. It's something that I think requires a separate company. It's just too hard. Anything that requires very, very, specialized knowledge is hard," he concluded.

One of the clear uses of synthetic data is areas where data is inaccessible and/or expensive to gather like medical imaging. Turns out, there may be "no free lunch".
Batteries in cars do not make sense.

Hybrids using alcohol fuel do make sense, if you grow the fuel as part of local regenerative farms. "CSA for fuel."

- Most ICE cars can be converted to use alcohol. (We can use the existing cars longer, rather than replacing them, which would save a TON of resources.)

- The exhaust is non-toxic.

- It's carbon neutral. (The carbon in the fuel came from the air, not the ground.)

- Pretty much anyone can make it. It's not hard.

- The byproducts are good animal feed. (Yeast is protein, fermentation converts the sugars and starches into yeast and alcohol. So alcohol production improves the inputs rather than destroying or degrading them!)

- Alcohol has (much!) higher energy density than batteries.

- Batteries have all kinds of problems once they are wrecked: cars have spontaneously erupted into flames a week after the crash that sent them to the wrecking yard. When they do burn they put out crazy toxic smoke.
Yes, I get 10-20 calls/texts a day wanting to buy property I own in TN. I get the personalized texts too addressing me by name. I'm guessing they're just pulling property records and calling/texting whoever is listed as the owner, which is a public record. It's always for the property in TN, not the one I actually live in in a different state, so I'm assuming they're targeting certain cities. I'm assuming it's a company like Blackrock, trying to scoop up more residential houses. Most messages are identical and seem automated, even with a "text STOP to stop receiving messages." I get cash offers for as-is condition, sight unseen, or at least that's what they say. Wouldn't know, I never respond. Florida is a hot real estate market as well. Buy up the houses and all you're left with is sky high rentals.

A fair amount of software is about either filling in forms to populate a database or rendering views of a database. In that context, tests and maintainability matters because you're generally implementing business processes.

Traditional games are more like art, or rather more like novels than textbooks, where you write it once and put it out there.

That's of course changing with live service games so I suspect testing and maintainability will become increasingly written about.
