The same document talks about the "Blessings of Liberty" while establishing slaves as 3/5 of a person for Congressional representation?

It's a little hard to reconcile slavery with, say, the Fifth Amendment's prohibition on being "deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law".
When I see superpower utilities like this, my immediate question is usually "why can't/don't the mainstream options do this do this?".

Based on the opening of TFA, my assumption is that they could, but just haven't yet? Is this something we can hope to be added by more mainstream projects? Or are there technical or cultural blockers I can't see?

I heard that Taipei will also install something like this but I'm not sure when. Taipei is an extremely noisy city with traffic cop whistles, loud scooters, and harbagttrucks that blare a time to tell you when to bring out your trash.
> why not ? i believe it is especially as i imagine most people are not aware that such things exist in freedom lands

Do you mean firewall rules? Because firewall rules definitely exist in "freedom lands."

A lot of the comments here seem to show an eagerness to misunderstand this. Even in a "freedom land" law enforcement still needs the power to intrusively investigate criminal suspects, because ineffective law enforcement is a bad thing and a threat to liberty.
Perhaps I'm sorta nitpicking or being overly annoying by pointing this out, but use of a Yubikey wouldn't necessarily help if a malicious process modified the code to be submitted. They'd be signed-but-corrupted commits.

The best safety net I'm aware of is that source code and/or diffs in plaintext (not binaries) are distributed, and that recipients inspect them.

It's reasonable to distribute binaries in addition, although recipients take on risk by using those. That risk can be mitigated in the presence of source code and reproducible builds.
Given that we have a limited number of productive hours per day, say 3-4, the overall performance is better with 5-day workweek. Add 2-3 hours of tuning your mind, meetings, emails, etc. Which gives 5-7 hours. In line with what you said.

So, next time you negotiate a raise with you manager, ask for less hours instead of more $$$.
Seems like somebody just googled "reasons why amp is bad" and copy-pasted them into a blog post without any further context.
Well, they were designed to survive everything except an every-100-years summer (36°C sustained outdoor temperatures) back in the 80s, which now happens to be every summer.

Even the trains ordered in 2000 were designed for an every-100-years summer (40°C sustained outdoor temperatures) which now some regions are hitting every year as well.

The issue isn’t the ACs, the real issue is climate change ;)
You really are getting over-excited about this. I didn't think "That's me" I thought "riding a motorcycle is a problem of your own making" is a really obtuse argument. Not least because we all know that the noise has nothing to do with safety anyway.

For reference, I ride a motorcycle that has the factory fitted exhaust in a country that has laws limiting the noise of exhausts sold and tests vehicles every year to ensure they haven't been modified to be louder. I also wear earplugs when riding it to protect my hearing - which protects me from wind noise - not engine noise. So, no, I'm not thinking "that's me".

Correct, that wouldn't violate it. For German citizens only would.
EMV2-compatible debit/credit cards work pretty widely. The real issue is that some countries have locally-popular cards that don't work in that scheme (Dutch old Maestro variant, some german cards, etc.) or have very annoying compatibility issues (my old "Visa Electron", once very popular in Poland and which tripped UK card systems like crazy) and availability of card payments differs across EU - capping card fees and speeding up transactions thanks to EMV helped there a lot, but I remember hearing stories of Italian shops in touristy areas getting card readers... because of Polish visitors, who were accustomed to wide availability of cards (last local bastion of cash only was farmer's market nearby - now every more established stand has one)

> overly simplistic conclusion

Dominant first order and second order effects often have simple sounding narratives. Inflation, interest rates, and growth are complex relationships. The Fed's actions on the market are however simple instruments.

The above comment points out that since the Fed started using modern monetary theory to regulate the economy. Wages and Productivity have decoupled, while one may not cause the other - it's reasonable to hypothesize a relationship based on bargaining power.

I wish we'd just try to avoid recycling plastic in the first place, and reduce its presence wherever possible.

Aluminium and glass are way less harmful to the environment and can be recycled almost infinitely.
The larger factories existed within the currently high government regulation, so assuming larger factories would result from less regulation isn't in evidence.

What are you talking about? When was the last time you saw a Tesla advertisement?

> Self-driving cars doesn't sound like fancy name for cruise control

Having the hardware or the capacity to be a self-driving car is not equal to being a self-driving car. The hardware must be enabled, which in this case wasn't. The car only had Autopilot not FSD. Please learn the difference.
> Open / minimal back pressure exhausts are done for the (minor in a non boosted car) performance gains. Not to scare people.

Not sure what kind of performance you are expecting in residential pedestrian streets. I've seen plenty of customs go WOT through a 25mph zone. No other reason to do that except piss people off.

This is a bold assumption, and untrue. I was born in such a place, and had no choice as a kid to be woken up by the bells. Needless to say, I now loathe bells.
This tool is very useful for a hand full of reasons.

Slick user interface for a tool that is still actively in development (according to the webpage.)

It would be nice if you could add the ability to select a custom screen width, maybe have a drop down for where you can select a device like (iPhone, iPad, etc) and then it auto fills the appropriate screen width on the backend.

This would be useful for the testing of websites at different breaking points

This is actually a pretty common model nowadays, as it saves the commissioning authorities quite some money compared to running actual local trains. See https://www.bahn.de/service/individuelle-reise/bahn_und_fahr... for an overview.

People are used to use a regional ticket with those trains, and they show an "RE" number. This will likely lead to loads of discussions on the train if they will follow through with that.
For example, when I lived in Australia I just bought $10 second-bottom-shelf wine.

I eventually realised the $20-30 stuff was significantly better, I was just being cheap.
Second this.

As a user (not publisher / developer):

* Based on occasional Hacker News coverage, and first principles, I was ready to dislike AMP

* After reading this article, I am wondering if I should explore it more and embrace it, because as a user, literally every single one of their defined "problems & issues" is a net benefit to me.

Harder for publishers to embed ads? Great.

Harder for publishers to run own code and track you and run more analytics? Awesome.

Harder for publishers to "present their brand value"? Brilliant.

After thinking about it, it works great for me.

When I want a specific website I go to a specific website.

When I randomly peruse news and articles, I want minimum ads, minimum differentiation and "brand value", minimum code. I don't care about who what where how they are. When I watch Google News Carousel, I'm OK to be in walled garden. Google News Carousel is not "The Internet" for me, it's the equivalent of facebook or twitter or instagram.

Basically, the author just managed to completely sell me on AMP!

The car was apparently going 74 MPH on a surface street, since the driver didn't reduce the speed on the cruise control after the freeway became a surface street. The driver may legitimately have been asleep at the wheel.

The best argument Tesla has to isolate itself from liability is that there is no way that the car could have reacted to the oncoming car and stopped at that speed, even if its AI system were perfect. They would have to dodge criticism about not using LIDAR to detect obstacles early and also the criticism that the AI system didn't notice the obstruction _at all_ and could have slowed down earlier.

All that said, this is not a good fact pattern for the people hoping to come after Tesla instead of the driver. However, the cracks are beginning to show.
so what? a noisy car is a noisy car.
Here’s an important part:

>Riad had initially set his car’s speed to 77 mph; he then set it to 78 mph, and then finally changed the speed to 75 mph. At the time of the crash, the car was going approximately 74 mph.

For me, I’d convict. This isn’t a case of ‘autopilot’ as much as it’s a case where a person purposely (with intent) set his speed above legal limits and did not maintain the attention while doing so.. causing the death of two individuals on their first date.

Tragic.
Why not both? Or, alternatively, 3 8-hour days? I'd take a pay cut to 60% of my current salary for a 3 day work week, absolutely.

I do my very best when I'm at work. But, it's dead time to me. I have a lot of ambitions, projects, I write music, I'm trying to learn to draw, I have kids, and I yet have to give 8 hours of my day to just keep the lights on. Life is too short for that!

It's employee evaluation time at work right now. I always wonder: what would happen if I sat my wife down and had her write a document defending her performance as my spouse? And then I ranked her and told her whether it was satisfactory. And I had her record what she was doing with her time every day. I wonder what her reaction would be. That's pretty much how I feel about employee evaluations.
Yeah I’ve been following orioleDB as well. I think the guys behind it are also going to be offering a managed version of it too. I fully intend to use it in my next project.
> slaves as 3/5 of a person for Congressional representation

You would've granted slave owners more votes? You feel they were under represented? If I lived in a state alone with a enough slaves I should have been able to dictate policy for the entire nation?
@dang, why the flag?
It is very dense and in a philosophical style. I'm not surprised it was tedious as an audiobook. I'd like to read it again myself. My takeaway was that Tolstoy believed Christ had ushered in a new era for man, philosophically. The previous eras were:

1. man serves self and family

2. man serves state and country

3. man serves god

He believed many of our problems are due to most of us still being stuck at level 2 of existence. A man at level 3 is immune to the problems of a man at level 2. For example, they couldn't even compel Jesus w/ bodily harm. They killed him, and what good did it do them?

He also argued that the shift to level 3 is inevitable and already in progress.
Do you have any kind of source for this? I heard of complaints regarding this ticket already, I do not see this coming back, let alone for free.
30% stronger might mean considerably more savings than 30% by weight, especially if the graphene concrete has better properties under tension (where concrete is abysmal). Stronger materials can have a larger volume to surface area ratio safely, picture an X shaped pillar rather than a full cylinder.
Well, 'everything' besides links breaking when users post them from new reddit, which for some godawful reason inserts escape characters, and removes them when displaying in new reddit only.
Your average Joe or Jane absolutely doesn't know that ... all they know is that 'full' FSD isn't fully ready yet and they have the latest Autopilot

Autopilot and FSD are two different things ... I'm sure the consumer is fully aware of that /s
Ask HN: What’s best practice for securing API keys in open source projects?
I’m working on a project that I want to open source, but it uses an API key that I want to keep hidden from untrusted parties. What’s best practice on how to do that? Google is really vague about “encrypting” it.
Hmmm, didn’t realize it was coming off as “German only” - I wanted people to realize that this was designed for the benefit of less-wealthy residents of Germany, not the convenience of tourists, but that there’s nothing stopping anyone from using it.

Since it’s not obvious, I’m not German, merely a permanent resident (US citizen).
> Legally the driver bears the responsibility, no?

That’s the billion dollar question that will be relitigated for years as autonomous systems improve. No one knows.
As usual in big cities you need to add the time for walking to your car and for finding a parking space in the end.
like putting a script on the switch that says the cpu utilization is x% higher? Do higher end switches report out utilization of the packet processing asic? I have a few high end switches in my homelab, I can of course tell the utilization of the management processor but I have never tried to delve into what the actual switch chip is doing.
There's a lot of good points in here, folks, based on experience.

In particular, this is one of the most important observations in science/medicine today:

" mediocrity and bad incentives have much more explanative power than malice, and yes some mainstream researchers have some erudition or intelligence but there are some systemic attractors that prevents them"

it wasn't until I left academia and got "tenure" at a large tech company that I was finally able to pursue the research I wanted to (for funding reasons) and when I finally did, it proved to a wide range of people that what I had been proposing was legitimate.
Because if I do not use my photocopier it does not emit anything, it just emit things during usage.
In contrast I do not "use" my wall. It maybe emits things when it is newly made, but otherwise it does not emit things.

The big problem with testing is that it assumes the human body can be averaged.

We are not.

One person's natural lump is another's cancer.

One person's low heart rate is another's natural genetic gift.

Modern medicine , particularly compensation, wants to put everything in neat black/white boxes.

Which is why tests are more dangerous than they seem.
You are not average, and you shouldn't compare yourself to any perceived average because the human body is not average.

You should compare yourself to you, and that's all the doctor should use.
That is one of those things that sound intuitively true, but isn't necessarily the case in practice.

One example that I am more familiar with: thyroid nodules. Recently, the medical guidelines have increased the size threshold for a biopsy, where you poke a needle in it to find out whether it is cancer or not. We could assume that diagnosing these cancers when they are smaller would always better, but that is not the case... On one end, it turns out when the nodule really is cancer, it is just as safe to wait to do the biopsy only after it has grown over the size threshold. And on the other end, the biopsies are not 100% accurate. A good percentage of the time, it can't say conclusively whether it is cancer or not. When that happens the only way to know for sure is to surgically remove the thyroid, which might result in the patient being put on lifelong hormone medication. One might think that in a perfect world we would act rationally over this uncertain information and not remove the thyroid when all it has is a small nodule with uncertain diagnosis. However, human intuition doesn't work well with percentages. When a patient is told they have a chance of having cancer, no matter how small, they will want to pursue every avenue to investigate and resolve the matter, even when the cost benefit is not worth it. When they looked into the statistics of how many people were getting thyroid surgery we could see that as imaging technology improved, more and more people had thyroid surgery, with no reduction in the number of deaths from thyroid cancer.
Show HN: Script Automation Tool
We’ve spent the last couple of years building a tool to further automate existing DevOps automation.

Now we have a ready-to-use platform that allows you to automate your common DevOps orchestrations using sanitized scripts & reusable workflows.

Here are some of the main features:

Use Python, Ansible, PowerShell, bash, Perl etc. in one workflow.
Upload scripts you already use and make them reusable. You don’t need to learn a new language!
*Works on any stack layer (also any API, any language).

We’d appreciate any honest feedback from the HN community!
These trains do have an RE number though, they show up when searching "local trains only" on the route planner (in that case the IC number will even only be visible after expanding details), and all other regional train tickets are accepted on those trains. This will confuse lots of people.
really? do you maybe have a link? (maybe in your browser history)
Nice way to view UNIX, a virus.
Yep, users love it. People on HN hate it because we're weirdos and many of us interact with it on the publisher side rather than the user side. It's like asking cashiers what they think of self checkout.
Would be nice if you could also use a timestamping service when signing your commit. That way even if your key is compromised you can still spot things that were signed after the compromise.
Beautiful train.

Tangentially, in the US south, the midnight train was once a metaphor for salvation from bondage or prison, perhaps via death, as immortalized in these lyrics by blues legend Leadbelly:

When we're at it, why isn't GitHub open source?
At least to me (and maybe I'm just weird), to say that they "photoshopped" it implies that they modified the real image. It's a little weird that they reconstruct the appearance of a tweet, but not that weird! It's a consistent style, and doesn't leave any risk of artifacts. Plus you can presumably plug it right into your production system. Like CD for tweets lol
Yeah, it really all boils down to "you should have known better" - which is a horrible thing to say in many cases. It's what causes so much friction around hiring ex-felons, etc.

With peoples lives in the balance it is horrific to see Tesla be this reckless.

But I guess it is a top down culture issue perhaps?

Seeing how Elon Musk acts, and how he will chase the shiny thing when he wants attention, it’s all about ego right? Like what’s with the SpaceX always on demand massages for their executives?

Seems like they are losing sight of what really matters, and I can’t help but wonder if this build up of failure is going to cascade into the Musk companies faltering, which would be a big loss as space flight and green transportation are very important (imo)
Agree 100% with this take. But my question is: how do you mesh all these types together and run an effective team/company? Or is that even possible?
It's not quite as simple as "they can use discretion", because there is no single "they". There's a boatload of states and the federal government, and states have sovereign power on these topics, and states that have outlawed the practice have collaborated with the federal government through "equitable sharing" practices.

Something at the top could help.
> Cars and bikes are a bad solution to long commutes

Yes, exactly.

Long commutes are the problem.

> The best solution is short commutes or WFH. In that situation bikes are fine and even cars are less bad

Except for traffic jams, I agree.

The more time people spend on the road, the more accidents are going to happen.

It's true for cars, bikes, mopeds, motorbikes, but not for walking or using the subway.

So every time a person says "we should all be cyclist" is only expressing an opinion, not a fact!

--------

For those who want some crude numbers.

Stop here if not interested

--------

An e-bike that goes 20-25mph in a park full of people, it's actually more dangerous than a moped at the same speed, also because mopeds don't access to pedestrian areas usually.

In my country every year a report on pedestrian accidents is released.

The most recent issue is about year 2019, that says:

- 352 bikes were in accidents involving a pedestrian, they killed one and injured 366 of them.

- 325 mopeds in the same period killed no one, injured 271.

- 1,831 motorbikes killed 26 people and injured 2,131

But there are 7 million motorbikes, going around every day, while bikes are only 1.5 million and most of them aren't used daily.

E-bikes are basically mopeds, but are statistically more dangerous than mopeds for pedestrian and have a death rate that's only 20% of the deaths by motorbikes, that are much heavier (15x) and can run a lot faster (10x).

If there were as many bikes as motorbikes (4.6x) it's possible to predict at least 352 * ( 7 / 1.5) = 5 deaths and 1,685 injured people.

Add that a safe +20% If they traveled for as long as motorbikes (5 days a week instead of 1 or 2), and you get 2.022 injured and 6 deaths, worrisome numbers if you ask me.

Also, due to COVID-19 and people ordering delivery more than ever (usually delivered by bike), Milan have seen an increment on bike accidents of 30% year on year, in the face of only a 7% increase of traveled distances.

In this case it can't even be said it's because of cars, cars could hardly run during the lock downs!
Lots of asphalt tech opportunity, just not so much electronic tech. And timelines are long.

I’m disappointed that we still do cold patches instead of heating the surrounding asphalt when filling potholes. That’s where I’d transfer soldering technology into asphalt.
You got scammed. Sounds like you know that. I’ve seen functional medicine docs like this too, it’s a part of their business model to sell you overpriced supplements that they get kickbacks from.

Just because they don’t take insurance doesn’t mean they don’t have their own ethical sketchiness. However, just because there are bad non-insurance docs out there doesnt mean there aren’t excellent, ethical ones of the type OP described.
This is very funny, very funny indeed. Every few years New York has a big press release about cracking down on the noise from cars. And then they enforce it for a week. And then they drop it.
Something even easier to reason about: Only true is true, and only false is false!
