These sumtypes don't mesh well with JSON/YAML/etc. serialization though. If you have

type MySumType interface {
sealed()
}

like in the code example for go-sumtype, serialization is easy enough:

type MySumType interface {
json.Marshaler
sealed()
}

But deserialization runs into a roadblock, because you cannot implement interfaces like json.Unmarshaler on an interface type. Something like

type MySumType interface {
json.Marshaler
json.Unmarshaler
sealed()
}

will not work: Given `var s MySumType`, json.Unmarshal() will croak because it cannot call UnmarshalJSON without knowing the concrete type of `s`. So for deserialization, you'd need an extra wrapper type that provides the json.Unmarshaler implementation.
Back in early 2000 there was a confession website. I forget the name. But man some of the confessions on there… can’t unread that stuff 20 years later…
yes that seems so.

i found the potetntial to make an unassuming brick wall, into a security threat, to be an interesting point of a threat model
"There's a 50/50 chance of <some outlandish or unlikely thing>; either it'll happen or it won't." is an old Friar's Club joke.
Yes but apparently previous blockings were done by issues like minor labelling issues. Which of course have to be followed, but put a sticker on the bottle instead of block the import.
Maybe WOPR found the peace of oblivion attractive?
Thiel is unconvincing. The guy studied law and philosophy and is now a financier. He has no understanding at all about supply chains because he never encountered any and should not be let near them.
Seems like very different circumstances in the Chinese case. In that case, the condemned knowingly mixed a poison with milk intended for baby formula - IMO this crosses the line from negligence to murder.

But I agree, even if you don't go all the way to the point of executing offenders, making more execs personally liable when there are gross cases of neglect would be an improvement.
Just because someone engages in honest speculation out

Cryptobros last week: "TO THE MOON WE CAN'T BE REGULATED ENJOY BEING POOR SOYBOIZ"

Cryptobros now: "WAAAAAAAAAAAAAH WE WERE ONLY TRYING TO DO CRIMES FOR LAMBOS HOW COME WE GOT GOT?"
It would, although the utility of using a black hole has a universal mass-energy converter would be substantial. Take any matter you want, toss it in to be crushed and then extract it back out as kinetic energy you can use to make electrical power.
I would never call crypto poop. Poop can be combined with water and light to nourish plants which create food, something real and useful for humans.

How realistic do you think it is that you'll be able to complete all the what-abouts everyone is proposing to you before you get burned out? Genuine question.
Well the thing I have noticed their 'home feed' in the app (not showing on desktop version) is basically political news and outrage.
They seem to be heading the direction of facebook.
Pushing outrage content is such a '2020s' thing, I hope it's just a fad.
Great question! I ask myself: Why?, or rather how?

What is that assumption based on?, that lowering cholesterol intake is better?

That lowering blood cholesterol is better? All blood cholesterol, is it always better to lower it?

Is this supported by studies which have not been superseded by more recent evidence?

Because as I see it: It isn’t.

And I don’t see that the article exposes how the conclusion is reached.
I agree with you. I should have looked a little more closely before the lazy crosspost, especially considering the 'source'..
Stack Overflow runs SSR with a half a dozen servers. How much more scale do you need?
The first two involved the fear that kids would be abused by their caretakers/parents, not that walking down the street was unsafe.
I think that isn't extreme at all. UL certification is a thing and Amazon really has a responsibility for bringing a lot of terribly unsafe junk in circulation.
Oh. Well the banks are basically the worst so that seems to favour crypto.
Maybe someone is cutting and pasting the same confession ever and over again.
So is being a young, white, neuro-normative, able-bodied male a bad thing then?

That's only because LFP isn't usually made in round cells like that, so whoever is making that cell hasn't optimized the process. LFP has the same amount of Ah per volume as li-ion, but at an average voltage of 3.2 instead of 3.7. That is the only forced source of reduced capacity and is about 20%.
A bit much to pin on a single event.

And why would Germany do espionage on a Spanish diplomat. Surely Spain and Germany can coordinate vis a vis negotiations with Iran.
If we move to renewables, who cares what they do with the energy?
Nutrition is not a solved problem and this person definitely hasn’t solved it.

This article is just bad, it attempts to be authoritative on a subject that has bedeviled researchers for decades.

It doesn’t meet Hacker News criteria for ‘new and interesting.’ There isn’t anything new here, the tradition of news publications writing up health advice (which always contradicts the most recent previous article) is a long and boring one.

Pure nonsense. Seriously.
Mass and energy are same thing. They effect gravitational pull the same. If you compressed the Earth the energy it takes to compress the Earth would increase the mass-energy of the Earth, and this would change the orbits of planets.
Steam is still hot after it has gone through the turbine. Let's put a few of these cells there.

One particular choice of Mastodon is that pretty much everything federates all the time. Some local instances try to create a sense of local community, but other than the local timeline page you might as well be anywhere.

Hometown is a fork of Mastodon that adds a "local only" post feature, posts that deliberately do not federate. I think it's an interesting experiment. https://github.com/hometown-fork/hometown
I used to use third party systems, but a few years ago Apple added all the features I needed to Reminders, so that's what I use.
There are many ways of knowing the means objectively. In countries with mandatory military service and where IQ tests are administered in connection wit that service there is reliable data.

Another source is the number of clinical cases of mild mental retardation. This will mostly depend on how large the population subgroups with lowest IQ are, but if they are approximately fixed and there's no explosion in assortative mating it would be possible to calculate the true mean from that.
It may be harder, but it will happen sometime in the future.
Meanwhile, in the US, the FDA publishes a notice that is written by the company: https://www.fda.gov/safety/recalls-market-withdrawals-safety...

Read through and carefully notice things like:

> Cronobacter sakazakii is commonly found in the environment and a variety of areas in the home.

> It's important to follow the instructions for proper preparation, handling and storage of powder formulas.

...and paragraphs of text explaining how they test for this stuff and found no evidence of contamination.

It's also pretty infuriating that companies get to claim their recalls are "voluntary" when they're anything but. The agency comes to them, says "recall or we will" and the company gets to save face and call it voluntary and act like they're heroes.

By the time the FDA is involved, it's because the company didn't act voluntarily when it had evidence of product contamination.
There was a huge spike in unsolicited assaults on Asian americans and asian immigrants so you can see the incitement of further violence logic even if that was so much more nebulous and indirect. Private company and all. Twitter should be nationalized if the first amendment has to apply.
I wouldn't say that it increases developer time. From my (sure, limited) experience of building both with Flask (Django-like, Python BE framework) and Svelte, the difference between developer time is negligable, if not in favor of building on the client - the component frameworks bring much more to the table, like scoped CSS, often better editor support for dynamic values in the HTML templates etc.
Seems like an ultraviolet catastrophe situation
It's unbelievable but the evidence supporting it is overwhelming.

Hence the call to point out things that are either better on the blockchain, or of value and that can be only made on the blockchain.

Then it's a case of discussing wether the power consumption is worth it.

So far in this thread all that anyone's come up with is "because I might want to send money to someone that my government has banned money transfers to".

I have previously asked elsewhere and got a load of answers which fall into the "technically can be made on the blockchain, but can be done far more efficiently and effectively using exisint tech", eg. carbon credit trading, and (rather surprisingly) "publishing a website".
> I'm pretty sure that the Ender 3 is way more popular than all of Prusa's printers put together.

It's possible, but:

- The Ender 3 is an "i3 clone", so in some ways still a Prusa
- If your assumptions is right, it's probably just because of the price difference
- The reliability you get from a Prusa is unbeatable even at much greater price points

Just to be clear, I'm not disagreeing with you, only adding context.
I think it's less about the "ecosystem" they the bought into but rather the bean counters saying "Hey, we have free access to Teams, why are we wasting our money on Slack?" (That might have been what you were saying but it read more like "We love all things MS, why not move our chat to that too?")
Same, I extensively use both Notes and Reminder apps as they work pretty good nowadays.
Thanks for the link!

> you wouldn't be able to detect that with a naked eye.

What if you touched it? No idea what the spacetime would look like near a gram-sized black hole with lots of heavier matter surrounding it but I suppose there would still be pretty severe tidal forces.
UL is not a consumer protection agency, but is one of several companies approved to perform safety testing by federal agencies. They do important work.
While it's true Google Video was not able to get traction vs. YouTube, I've also read some good accounts of the merger that YouTube would have crumbled had they not had the resources from Google (both machine and people) needed to scale.
Work: Obsidian with the calendar plugin.

Personal: paper notepad. The timelines are longer and the lists are shorter, it doesn’t need anything fancy.

In both cases embrace the Bullet Journal notion of having a regular step where you decide to scratch items you’re not really going to do. Otherwise the list keeps growing no matter what system you use.
Also, it seems like sexist language is OK now?
At Stanford no less. As long as you obey the dogmas, you can be a moron who lied and cheated her way in and be fine. I think that's enshrined by admissions, one of the edge cases is being extremely left-wing politically active, that'll get you in easy. That's how 10% of the undergraduates are like that, and they're the worst students studying political majors. College admissions is political speech.
Your design goals look good to me. I think this will be one of the hardest parts to get right, so it's probably wise to save it for later so you can learn from implementing the rest of your design first.
“On a roof” may not matter much if neighboring houses are as high as yours. You want to be higher than anything close by.

If you’re going to use a longer pole, portability goes out of the window, as the pole will have to be stronger, too.

Then, you might as well get an even stronger longer pole and increase the turbine diameter. Micro wind turbines rarely make sense.
Sorry: for each of the 67 there are 10 controls.

„ Results for each of 67 sudden unexpected deaths classified by the coroner (aged 1 week-104 weeks) = Cases, were compared to 10 date of birth - and gender-matched surviving controls (Controls), with five cases reclassified to meet criteria for SIDS, including the criterion of age 3 weeks to 1 year.“

Show HN: Send and receive money through GitHub comments (givebk.io)
This looks fun! An alternative is the Maschine+[0] from Native Instruments, a portable version of their hardware DAW that doesn't require a computer.

I have their Maschine Mk3 and it's an amazing piece of equipment, my #1 go-to for composing or improvising. NI's hardware and software quality are top notch.

Hi HN! We want your always honest and constructive feedback on https://givebk.io

We've built a bot to make contributing as frictionless as it can be, users can send and receive money on Github by simply:

1) inviting the givebk-bot to an issue (chrome extension https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/givebkio/flcilnfjp...) and

2) commenting ▷ @givebk-bot !give $X @user ◁

It's not an attempt to actually solve the OSS / maintainers monetization gap and unfairness (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19431444), but more so of an attempt to foster people to show gratitude by making it as frictionless and "impulsive" to give back as it can be.

We've built givebk as we believe gratitude can be expressed in many ways, but donating small monetary values to useful users could be particularly rewarding for the community. You can easily deposit/withdrawal your givebk balance through Stripe, anytime.

Please join us on spreading love by using givebk on github! A safe (soon cross-platform) and frictionless alternative to Github Sponsors.

Also, please share your thoughts with us about the following questions:

- we're starting with Github, but we have a broader intention of making "payment as text" a thing across any forum / social media;

- do you think frictionless payment "as text" can foster gratitude and peer to peer donations across communities? Why?

- we'd like our monetization to align with our values and purpose: not taking too much, not too little, please share your thoughts if 10% seems fair from your POV;

Thanks so much!
> If you remember Newton’s gravitational law, then, sure, a higher mass means a higher gravitational pull. But a smaller radius also means a higher gravitational pull. So, if you hold the mass fixed and compress an object into a smaller and smaller radius, then the gravitational pull gets stronger. Eventually, it becomes so strong that not even light can escape. You’ve made a black hole.

I think this is discussing the gravity on itself — or the peak gravitational pull, for nearby objects.

Compressing the Earth wouldn’t make far away objects experience it differently, but compressing Earth would increase the peak pull nearby — to the point of creating a black hole. Much more gravitational pull than anywhere on Earth experiences now. But that radius would be far, far inside of where the surface currently is.

Density increases nearby gravity by focusing mass.
Crypto has exactly one non-scam use-case: a way to transfer value that's more resilient to government interference. Can be used for crime, grey areas or in the very rare case where there's no other financial infrastructure to transfer value.

Cryptocurrencies make various trade-offs around efficiency, energy use, user experience, etc to operate in such a hostile environment, therefore they should really be used as a last resort if there's nothing else that can achieve your objective.

For most people living in the developed world and for whom government interference isn't a problem, there is no need to use cryptocurrencies.

Anything else that's crypto/blockchain based but not a cryptocurrency for the purpose of transferring value is a scam - whether to scam the users (pump & dump, rug pull, etc) or to scam clueless investors who are happy to dump money into anything that uses a blockchain even though a database would be a better solution.
(Not a physicist myself)

Blackholes are just a solution to Einstein equations for an object in which all its mass is concentrated in its Schwarzchild radius. Protons and electrons are bigger than that so they are not Blackholes and they
will not "explode".

> When they explode, what do they eject

If it was possible to concentrate a proton to make a blackhole, when it evaporates, I'd say it "eject" itself (a proton)

That said, Einstein's equations do not really apply at quantum scales. So what happens with such blackhole
is unknown. We never observed micro blackholes, and the Hawking radiation is just a theory which may or may not be true.
You can stack the batteries in one place, in small compartments. If one compartment catches fire, it's easier to contain than in a big compartment with cars that take up much more space. It could even mean that you ditch the compartment in the ocean, to prevent a bigger problem. But compartments can be designed to be cooled with salt seawater without damaging the ship.
It should work while you drive, F-Zero style.
What are the legal ramifications for this? Will anyone who willfully allowed for this to happen see jailtime? Will there be massive financial repercussions?

The allegations are damning. Falsification of records, lying to auditors, releasing tainted batches... the list goes on. This is criminal. Unfortunately, no one will see jailtime, lawyers will settle out of court, and Abbott will continue it's bullshit ways.
GTD. Been using the gtd system with obsidian for almost 2 years now. I sometimes fall out of sync with it, particularly during high stress times where I lose the motivation to work in a disciplined way, but it’s never too hard to get things back under control.

Most days I go through my next action lists when I’m thinking of stuff to do and review it each week to do any re org.
Well smart generally means "good without cheating" whereas you're talking about betrayal which is "only good at cheating."
> Slight problem with this is that you can’t touch black holes, so there’s nothing to hold them with. A black hole isn’t really anything, it’s just strongly curved space. They can be electrically charged but since they radiate they’ll shed their electric charge quickly, and then they are neutral again and electric fields won’t hold them. So some engineering challenges that remain to be solved.

im not even sure how to begin there... probably the only wait contain a black hole would be... warping space-time negatively? like kind of warp bubble?
wayland has never been a pleasant experience for me, neither was pipewire. everything the nix community fawns over seems to be regressive bullshit that breaks my system. systemd is only just now becoming acceptable in that in the past year it hasn't fucked me too hard.
My take is that once salesforce acquires a product at best it’ll remain stagnant and unchanged.

It’ll never get better, the smart people working on it quit and go elsewhere.
That’s just insulting to ponzi!
I'm wondering the same. National food shortage, has been happening for at least a week or more, and this is the first i hear that it is due to recall.
Unfortunately, it’s also like that working at some places—not just in the interview process. The day-to-day can be excruciating involving each of your bullet points inside of 8-10 hours, on repeat.

There’s a lot more humourless bureaucracy than there is else it seems. It just gets packaged up in the popular mode.

It’s kind of like the Vogon with slightly savvier marketing teams and a Patagonia jacket.
Sounds like an early TikTok.
It's my understanding we eat food for pleasure aswell as nourishment. Cats & dogs don't complain when they essentially eat tripe everyday. We are gustatory folk who enjoy a varied diet. I think humans are wired to vary their diet as much as possible. I know I get bored eating the same things all the time!
They got crushed by another startup, slack.
If you're implying that it's such a small amount, then why doesn't the government fund it from general taxation instead of this stealth tax?

Also, taxing basic necessities like energy is a regressive type of tax. It will be even worse if the levy is a fixed fee added to all energy bills (as opposed to a small increase in the per unit price to make it proportional to the energy used).
Technology purist version:

Is it a token on top of another blockchain? Yes -> scam. No ->

Is it anything other than pure PoW? Yes -> scam. No ->

Does it have a ICO/premine/instamine? Yes -> scam. No ->

Do miners get less than 100% of block subsidy? Yes -> scam. No ->

Is the source code mostly cloned from another project? Yes -> scam. No ->

Is majority of supply emitted in first few years? Yes -> scammy. No ->

Do creators have any expected financial gain? Yes -> scammy. No -> Maybe not a scam.
Assessing value for the purpose of sale is much easier than for the purpose of tax.

Land owners need to assess value when they want to sell. Taxmen need regular value assessment so they can tax it.

Does renting out a room in your house to students influence the taxes you and your neighbors pay? How does it change your relationships if they never plan to sell?
My condolences, I was also really attracted by their rates and slick design, but apparently dodged a bullet
Basecamp for sure
One I remember was GroupHug or similar name. There were numerous IRC bots at the time that would post stories/confessions from it.
Could UK put some tax avoidance into FTAs?
I just use yeggi or thangs for search. They are much better for that.
Most of their attrition is due to the slow rate of product improvements. So yeah, it's demoralizing for sure.

I've heard this as a reason for leaving for almost a decade though so it hasn't been a new problem but it seems to get worse every year.
Don’t hate the player, hate the game.
It's just a gravitationally attractive body: it moves towards the net gravitational force acting on it. So you could control it by trucking sufficiently large masses closer or farther away within a suitably large containment area, provided it wasn't too massive.

Easiest thing to do though would be to build it in orbit.
