This is part of why the PaaS take has worked so well for us. People who think they want edge have all kinds of different needs. When we realized that all full stack devs could benefit from something kind-of-like-edge it helped us do more focused work.
The US exists to funnel resources, military power, etc into the hands of the rich. Using coups, the CIA, and full out wars. The hyper-concentration of wealth that is felt in this country happens on a larger scale with the rest of the world countries funneling their wealth into 'civilized' nations.
Lockup periods aren't really inherent to PoS though. In Eth2 exits are rate limited, but they should be quick under normal conditions, and only delayed (for security reasons) if many stakers try to exit at once. For even greater liquidity, one can use a paltform like Lido, and just sell stETH at any time.
>he point was about American consumers, who are buying reconstituted concentrate anyways (just that someone's done the reconstituting for them

They aren't. Over 90% of orange juice sold in the US is not from concentrate.

It this happened, would we need to say "gnu/ghostscript/linux", to be proper about it?
I find that plausible, but I am a layman. At the very least there's no evidence that the scales can be separated, because despite all attempts a brain in an organism is the only thing recognized as showing "intelligence".

What you describe seems very similar to what's happening in an ecosystem. Our understanding of ecology is maturing though while these fields seem not to be. We have made very impressive calculators of course, and I don't mean to minimize them per se -- mainly people are just reckless with their claims.

It an interesting connection, I think, that natural selection is the only other process that is arguably doing something intelligent. This is a controversial idea and might well be wrong, but I don't believe that's proven merely by the fact that some key mechanisms have no intrinsic "goal".

I agree that the language is imprecise, and (especially for what I just said) has misleading connotations that are unfortunate...

I'm really curious to learn more about the processes you've alluded to and their relations, if you can recommend any reading or care to elaborate.
I don't see how the eye tracking would have predicted the failure.

It tells you people now see 100% orange over seeing Tropicana?

But now that you know that, how do you know seeing 100% orange will lower sales as compared to seeing Tropicana?

So let me get this straight. Fly has a ‘flyctl ssh’ feature where you can gain console/ssh/whatever into the OS of the fly instance/firecracker/container/thing. So you are saying that once in, you cannot use curl even to pull/download something? (I believe curl supports sftp protocol as well)
I'm certainly no expert but wrote a small jit in rpython a couple years back. I never heard of any jit driver interface for python (so no for your guest-guest question). I'm not so sure it would be doable, most likely rpython toolchain needs the annotations for loop start & end to be static (eg it's not a function, it's more like a tag in the code). Because how it works is that it compile several versions of your mainloop which splice in complicated ways at these tags. I'm not sure the splicing points could be set dynamically.

Otoh, since pypy is trace-jitted, you can hope that a simple interpreter written in python run in pypy will unrolls enough of your python mainloop to actually see some interesting guest program hot-paths and optimize them.. but you're just making it more difficult for the optimizer and it's actually quite simple to write rpython.. Perhaps one should benchmark the brainfuck interpreter in rpython vs run in pypy.
I think it tastes different now too, but I can't find an old bottle to compare.
IMHO the biggest visible difference to me (besides the "straw orange" trademark) is the original one has the brand Tropicana very clearly in the middle, while the redesign puts it in much-less-readable-at-a-glance vertical text on the side. To someone quickly scanning the shelves, the former stands out and immediately tells you it's Tropicana, while the latter would probably tell you only "100% orange" --- fine, it's orange juice, but doesn't say the brand as prominently.

The post above talks about agriculture industry exploiting vulnerable people without legal status for hard labour and without access to healrhcare. They quote literally do cause people to die for profit.

It the other way round -thje ageicuulture industry steals from these people - it steals their health and future earning. If a business makes money by causing death, it is basically pillaging. Its like owning serfs or debt bondage

The new logo was hideous and the giant square box they put in every store window looked bad lol.

It's funny thinking about that now, because JCPenney just like every other retail big box chain, got rid of all their window displays decades ago. I dunno what they were thinking. It's still not uncommon to drive past a macys and see a giant facade that's mostly painted over because they decided they didn't need window displays.
I’m just now noticing that, quite fittingly for the time, .SU is .US reversed.
I think most Tropicana in the US is from concentrate. "Pure Premium" is their sub-brand for NFC (not-from-concentrate) at the moment; they've previously called it "Tropicana Natural" but were sued since even NFC orange juice requires significant processing to make it last more than a few days.

(Which goes to the other point: most store brand orange juice comes from your local Dole, Minute Maid, or Tropicana distribution center, which is bottling/filling the cartons from concentrate. It's all the same supply chain, the only thing that's different is the brand tax.)

Edit: Weakened the claim about how much is from concentrate, because I'm having trouble finding a statistic.

Second edit: I'm wrong, the majority of orange juice sold in the US is NFC. So this is a market distinction I wasn't aware of.
Google uses theirs (.google, .goog, .gle, .youtube) both for public and infrastructure stuff. Same with AWS (.aws).

For things like `pki.goog` or `ecr.aws` I think it makes a lot of sense; compared to an equivalent .com domain it removes the Verisign dependency from the DNS resolution chain.

Ask HN: How would your life be if the internet didn't exist?
Personally, without access to the world's knowledge, I would never have discovered just how big of a nerd I am (and boy do I love being a nerd). The internet has also been the only portal for me to connect with like-minds, not just intellectually, but spiritually/emotionally.

Overall if the internet didn't exist, I would've lived in absolute oblivion and zero self-awareness, chugging along checking all the boxes until the end of life.

While some people might prefer to live without the internet and it's "distractions", I reckon a lot of people depend on the internet and the web, for escape, for comfort, for connection, for existence.

I don't know about you, but some days, it seems the internet is the only thing that feels real.
Liquidation preferences can play a big role here. It doesn't mean nobody makes money, but very few investors may take all of the money.

Meetups at big companies in the bay area usually have their cafeteria made food (more made from scratch than prepared I would say). Meetups at startups will usually be from swanky delivery places too.

I doubt they would prohibit use. They'd just control the TLD (as they effectively already do, just more indirectly) and potentially apply different policies than are currently applied w.r.t eligibility for registration/renewal.
They took something fun and expressive and turned it into "if Goldman Sachs merged with Microsoft to sell orange juice".

I'm sure they had great support from focus groups though. Decisions like this always do.
Dive bombing is a silly idea for rotorcraft. It just doesn't work aerodynamically.

Sophisticated militaries will strike moving targets with precision guided munitions. Generally either laser guidance with a designator mounted on the drone, or some kind of pattern recognition built into the bomb itself (could be optical, IR, or millimeter wave radar). For example, something like the GBU-44/B.

Poor militaries and insurgents will make do with whatever they can get. Either wait for the target to stop moving, or just lead it a little and hope.
Are you suggesting that there's no phenotypical relationship between appearance and psychology? I mean hormones effect both fairly directly. The notion that we can't identify patterns based on outwardly visible aspects of people is a factual claim propped up on MORAL grounds, and not empirical validation.

The idea that people who "hit the gym" might differ from those who don't psychologically, precisely because of either the physiological results of working out, or the resulting social standing that results from being judged as attractive or dominant, scares some people. And to engage my own personal pattern recognition, the people it scares the most are those who are judged as not physically appealing or imposing, and perhaps would benefit from "hitting the gym."
Do you have a source for that? Not that I don't believe you; it's just surprising. My understanding was that orange juice ships poorly, even among fruit juices, which is why the concentrate market was still large.

Edit: I found a survey from 2009[1] where non-reconstituted orange juice was over 50% of the market. So I'm completely wrong about this!

Becaue people are looking for the brand.
It has taxation on energy usage independent of source. Given that traditionally alternate sources where things like companies having their own small gas power plant or similar this isn't really crazy. (Some details you can skip: The law effectively was about preventing circumvention of taxes on wasting energy, preventing unhealthy fragmentation in the power grid, making stabilizing the power grid easier and helping/subventing electric companies which back then often where state owned, i.e. tax payer financed; The law somewhat made sense for this goals, in the past. But only in the past. Change in technology and the ecosystem make it IMHO sub-optimal today. Today we probably should push for interconnected micro-grids with some decentralized energy sources each.)

Today the law is stuck in the past and should be changed IMHO. At least an exception for green decentralized energy and/or excluding (only) small producers should be done, maybe more.

Thinking about it currently is the best political weather for it.
Well except for Netflix, down 70% over the last year.
I'm not sure what's your point. All cars are dependent on their fuel, and electricity is the easiest one of these to create. You can even generate it yourself at home without being dependent on anyone, and this is much easier than having your own private military-industrial complex for independent oil extraction ;)
It's fairly obvious to me that it was sarcasm.

Create an auto-updating website from a Google Doc or Sheet: I created https://sitefast.live to solve that problem. The main difference between SiteFast and the other solutions is that it separate design from data clearly, so you do not mess you data(google sheets) with the site design.

You do realize PCs and other computers cost much more than they do today. Adjusted for inflation $4000+.

Speaking as an audiophile, although I don't exactly agree with your specific choice of headphones (I have to say that or I wouldn't be an audiophile) I strongly agree with using good headphones driven by any old thing. Audio quality these days only really depends on the transducers - i.e. whatever converts things to or from electricity, which, unless you've got a turntable, means just your headphones and/or speakers. Dealing with audio while it's in the electrical domain is a solved problem and your iPhone does it as well as the most expensive equipment.
It's not that this certain someone is anti-capitalist. Establishment big business class has tentacles of influence that extends into the establishment politician class. Making enemies of establishment politicians made him the enemy of big business.

When I worked at AWS, the thing I heard most frequently repeated in relation to security was "We don't want a front page of the NYT event." There's probably a good argument that AWS or Amazon would survive a "front page of the NYT" event (after all, we've seen Target etc do so), but the spirit of the phrase still resonates.

Poorly written article. Says exactly the opposite of what it means several times. Here’s the totally wrong conclusion, for example:

“On the other hand, the new packaging failed to impress the consumers, with clean lines, a lack of visuals, transforming the once indistinguishable orange juice into a “generic store brand” product.”

The orange juice used to be distinguishable, not indistinguishable!

It’s very hard to read articles that are so poorly written that they say the opposite of what they mean and rely on the reader to suss out their actual intent.

You misunderstood the vending machine analogy. The author argues that mining hardware is NOT like a vending machine, in terms of depreciation. Mining hardware becomes less productive over its lifespan, whereas a vending machine stays about the same until its broken. The author argues that these companies are applying the traditional “vending machine” depreciation even though, as you pointed out, it does not apply. And that’s the entire crux of how they’re overvaluing themselves.
This. In the entire history of the world, nothing ever got better by accepting what is. Be the sand in the gears any time the gears don't work for you or for the common good.
Are you trying to argue that reversible computing is classical computing, that the second law of thermodynamics doesn't exist, that modelling the brain as a classical computer/thermal process (ie. something that creates information) is presumptive, or something else? All of these concepts have been explored in depth for decades, and you don't appear to be acknowledging the existing body of work.
This also depends a lot on the electricity source mix that you're powering your car with today and in the next 10 years.

As a matter of fact, electric cars would be more efficient than ICE cars even with a very high-carbon electricity mix, because thermal power plants are much more efficient than ICE engines (due to size + available cooling source), and the power transmission/battery/electric engines are optimized enough that they don't gobble all the efficiency gains.

Electric cars are better CO2-wise, no question. But it will not reduce emissions enough. People who can afford not having a car should do so, and public authorities should develop public transportation. Of course, people who can't do so will be better off with an electric car, but environmentalists are worried that a push to full-electric will undermine needed efforts to reshape society towards a less energy-hungry world.

It's no accident that popular brand redesigns are usually just fresh coats of paint on their existing visual identity.

Apple: lost the rainbow, same silhouette

Google: still multicolored wordmark, but in a more modern font

BMW: same silhouette, reduced color palette

UPS: same colors and composition, simplified shapes

Brands are worth money they engender loyalty: people become repeat customers from brands they trust. If they don't recognize your brand, why would they choose it?
> i feel the idea of physical violence as a risk just doesn't fit into my understanding of the world.

If you don't purposely act as a rude and offensive person in real life you probably wouldn't encounter violence. If you are the type of person who levels insults and slurs, argues about religion or politics, or makes accusations of misconduct, you may encounter violence. As a rule, "upper class" people have codes of politeness and don't do these things, but it's not necessarily so for others.
I thought there was something wrong with the last bottle I had, other than the label, and now I read this:

Powerpoint was actually unique from the others in that it was an acquisition from a company called Forethought. It had a single release in 1987 before MSFT bought it and was for a very long time the only part of Office not built in Redmond (the purchase promised to keep the eng team in California within the then-newly created Graphics Business Unit).
I admit it's a little small for my tastes at only 36 keys, but I do a lot of typing on an Planck EZ with 47 keys which is only 9 more keys... ok actually that's a significant percentage of the keys, this is ~20% smaller.

I enjoy typing with layers, but I find it annoying when a keyboard gets too different from a normal laptop keyboard because it makes it harder to type on anyone else's computer. This might be a bridge too far for me, but I can see how someone with slightly different preferences / habits from me would love it.
