That doesn't make it any better, or less bad, because of the other additives it contains, for consistent performance over a wide temperature range, from standing on glowing tarmac/concrete, in the desert sun, to arctic cold, and much other stuff.

Search for something like "toxicologic(al) asessment/profile of jet fuel" and prepare to have your mind blown. While what pops up then mostly covers the military variants like JP-4,7,8, there is enough about the civil use Jet-A1 you are talking about.
For those wondering about the cost...

I found it elsewhere: "The most recent rebuilding required 14,000 cypress timbers, 25,000 sheaves of reeds, took 9 years to complete, and cost over $500 million."

"Obtaining large enough timber posts, for instance, requires trees 300 to 500 years old"

I seriously hope they can give it a rest for a while.

Ask HN: What books to you recommend for engineering for the enterprise?
I'm looking to read more about engineering for products that sell the enterprise. Things like identity requirements (SSO, SCIM, RBAC, ABAC), auditing requirements, security requirements (FEDRAMP, SOC2), billing/entitlement/invoicing requirements, etc. Do you know any of resources like this?
Hey, look on the bright side. Within a decade or so, the "open" web will have completely stagnated, and all new content will be squirreled away in closed-source, non-searchable private domains like Discord. So you won't even care that your web browser sucks
Not sure what OP meant but basically internal frame struct has been significantly simplified to contain only essential information required at runtime.

If a user is wanting to get or manipulate debugging information then the old frame struct will be generated when this is called.
You can't compare TW and TWh in that way (one is power, the other energy). With solar the way that TW translates to TWh is a little complicated, but it sure isn't 1:1 (probably closer to 1:2000).
Parmigiano-Reggiano doesn't have any wax encasement, it's just cheese - the rind is simply oxidized from age.
Here in the UK you can actually be fined for putting food waste in the regular bin (although that depends on where you live and enforcement is spotty).
Things like truth and lies aren't constants. Generalizing how they come into existence is a self-fulfilling story.
That's matrix-matrix multiplication. Nobody disputes that Strassen etc. have sub-cubic complexity. What about one of the six decompositions mentioned, as GP claimed?
A single TW of solar would produce a TW for every hour that the sun is shining, so it could be 3,000 TWh for every TW installed. Obviously the exact value depends on the insolation.
Just to be a bit contrarian to the excellent existing comments, there is no achievement without effort, and there is no effort if you're never challenged.

I wouldn't abandon failure because it's unpleasant in the moment. "Boring" people, to me, are folks who fear failure. "Exciting" people are folks who find different ways to fail at stuff (that is, they very rarely fail at something for the same reason twice).

If you want to be "exciting", find stuff to fail at. Ideally you'll get better at those things over time, but honestly it's not really necessary if your goal is to experience excitement in your life.
This transponder is "smaller than a grain of salt", so it probably doesn't matter, but in any case it's embedded in the casein label in the wax. If you're really worried about it and have a rind with part of the label on it, scrape off the wax.
If wealth disparity continues to increase these treatments will likely be unavailable to average people. Get rich or support economic policies that prevent oligarchs and billionaires.
Parmesan is not waxed. The rind is just the result of salting and exposure, and perfectly edible (boil it in stock for example).
Great comment! I find it even more moving in waterson style comic form: https://www.gocomics.com/zen-pencils/2014/06/23
It depends a lot on the interest rates involved.

At 2.6%, 45% of your first payment goes toward the principal, and around 3.5 years into a 30 year mortgage you hit 50/50 split between the principal and interest.

At 5% interest, 22% of your first mortgage payment goes toward the principal and you only hit parity at around year 15-16.

At 10% interest rate, only 5% of your first mortgage payment goes toward the principal. You hit parity (50/50) around year 23.
This is just a manipulation. To what end I don't know, but rest assured that's all it is.
It's been entertaining to watch an industry that is completely unused to technology change start to encounter technologies with exponential change in performance (e.g. cost, for solar).

So much of the industry is caught completely flat-footed, and projections and modeling are tweaked and changed until the projections for solar, wind, and storage, are often out of date and wrong by the time they are published.

Utilities are used to planning with five year time frames, but they will often use estimates from publications that are years old, and the publication may have been under review for a year, in addition to data collection time. So it's not unusual for utilities to do planning with numbers that are 10 years off of where they should be. It takes private citizens to cajole utilities and Public Utilities Commissions to practice basic good decision making.

There are two exceptions to the complete lack of innovation in the industry: Renewable Portfolio Standards that force utilities to change their production by force of law, and open markets in places like Texas where people can see how bad the decision making is from the old school and outcompete with their own generation sources. (and each of these states has had their own planning failures, both connected to improper governance at the PUC level, which is likely due to captured regulators.)

This is bad news.

It makes car ownership more necessary in most parts of the US, at a time when cars are expensive.

It eliminates a "default fallback job", exactly when inflation and recession make it more important.

For those who can't drive (whether for reasons of money or immigration status or something else), it makes it all the more important to be in one of the few places with decent transport. Those are expensive places.

In exchange, maybe bus ridership will go up 12% in San Francisco and New York. That's a bad trade.

Yeah, I prefer urbanism too, but, on net, Uber was good for probably everybody but the investors. Hell, if the government ran it at cost, it'd probably add overall to the economy through positive externalities.

Utopia involves nice little walkable towns and bicycles and such, but I don't see how you get to there from here, in the US, without blowing everything up first -- some unimaginable catastrophe, like the Yellowstone caldera going boom, or a decades-long strategic bombing campaign by the Empire of Japan. There's just no way to fix it. It is what it is. Uber makes the best of it.
You're confusing TW with TWh. If running at full capacity that would be an additional 8760 TWh generated every year. Of course it won't be 100% utilised but it takes more of a chunk out of it then you suggest.
Unfortunately, many (many!) people are not intrinsically-motivated like you or I and would rather do other things (unpopular opinion: many people are perfectly fine with doing nothing, and I mean not a DAMN thing). This article is for them.

Did I miss something or did this Silicon Valley VC gibberish fail to mention a single example of a "boutique search engine", whatever that made-up label means. Assuming he means web search engines such as wiby.me or marginalia.nu, he cannot cite them because they are non-commercial. The problem with SV VC is they cannot imagine a non-commercial use of the web. Everything has to tie back in to some proclaimed "business model", which never amounts to more than manipulating web traffic and capturing attention/eyeballs. Without the traffic, the model fails. In the SV VC's mind anything that does not not directly or indirectly lead to money gets filtered out.

Well a lot of people would argue that guns are neutral, at least.

But that aside, I do mostly agree. It's nonsense to help produce something that you know will be misused and then absolve yourself of responsibility.

The problem is not that people like this crap, it's that building and selling it is absurdly profitable and people like money. I don't know how you address such a thing other than to have government step in and block it (see GDPR, tracking cookies etc)

Try aging your supermarket-bought cheese (the non-AOP parmesan and gruyere).

You can do so in your kitchen fridge, but stick the cheeses in a small plastic container with a tight-fitting lid because they need high moisture (at least 70% - and that's relative moisture).

Open the box when you see condensation forming on its walls and wipe it down with a paper towel. Then close it again. That's about all the work you need to do.

Parmesan should improve markedly in about a year. Gruyere in three to six months.

Oh- unwrap them first from any vacuum bags they happen to be in. Cheese doesn't age in a vacuum.

It's fine if they're already sliced. Would be hard to fit in the fridge otherwise anyway. Depending on your fridge.
Farmers might benefit from that too. It all depends on the exact shapes on demand and supply curves. Reduction of supply volume can result in more supplier profit, if the price also goes up appropriately.

You are, of course, correct that it will be the poorest customers that will suffer.
Wait until you get into the complexities of taxation.

If you think you know them, pay attention to https://twitter.com/aotearoa_ben/status/1526786701750050817.

That's a law that changes the tax rate if

1. The purchase happens in Texas.
2. The payment cleared in a specific 2 day period.
3. The item cost < $100. The cost of shipping has to be included in the item's cost.
4. The item falls into specific categories that almost certainly don't match whatever categorization system you are attempting to use.

Seriously, calling out just one example, https://comptroller.texas.gov/taxes/publications/98-490/scho... points out that a kit containing school supplies qualifies as long as the cost of the qualifying school supply items in it exceeds the cost of the non-qualifying items. I guarantee that you don't have a category for that in your accounting system...

These articles are muddying the definition of a search engine. I guess in someways these articles and the general public perception is telling us a pure search engine no longer cuts it for us.

However the point is, search engines were meant to scour the web for data and present them in the order the algorithm deems most relevant. That is it. Google built a vertical integration into it for specific types of data that could be turned into a single answer like bus routers, NBA scores, temperature, wiki info etc. This is not the norm. It can only be done for some data types.

"Boutique" search engine by definition is doing logic analysis based on context, and so that will bring in "someone's" point of view into it. Immediately becomes useless for objective research/analysis. This is supposed to be done by the user. IF "boutique" is needed we already have it in reddit and this forum, media outlets like tv and print.

The specific question asked in the article "What do NFT collectors think about NFTs?" is a terrible one because a search engine cannot achieve that objectively. Someone needs to conduct a poll and that too its subjective because NFT collectors for different verticals/price points might have different opinions. NFT naysayers and NFT platform owners will have different motivations too. So I don't know if we should trust a boutique search engine to tell us a one line answer.
Everyone that is saying just "put the earnings on Schedule C or Schedule 1 of your tax form" is overlooking the part about your side project getting you sued and you having much more to worry about than just taxes.

The LLC (and other entity types) increases the deterrent of this ever affecting you.

The LLC specifically has some theoretical weaknesses, but the reason it is a deterrent is because it deters people from spending more money to find out about those weakenesses, and it also increases the odds that people won't be able to know where you are or serve you properly. The more expensive it is to find out anything, the less potential aggrieved people will bother, and "finding out" for them could mean "even harder to create liability and a payout", so they get bounced, or deterred, from trying.
A quick Google search indicates that that is ... stretching ... the truth a bit. At both those companies you are offered the choice of a Thinkpad (apparently Windows at FB or Linux at GOOG) or a Mac. And at that point what are they doing? You are using a web browser and SSH through a terminal. There's a word for that and it's called 'thin client'. It wouldn't surprise me if most of the in-office networks were full of standalone machines and borderline shadow IT.

No need to simp so hard for Apple bro. The criticism levied by the OP is completely valid. Apple breaks stuff on the regular, without a care, in large-scale deployments with real desktop applications it can be a total shitshow.

My own life has had phases. I will go through "boring" years where I prioritize safety, security and money. I will go through exciting years where I load up on risks in order to do something new and push myself. I have done gaps years and grind years, travel years and home years. Lonely years, family years. Poor years, rich years.

You don't have to do any of the above. It's your life. But if you are happy where you are at now, that's cool. If you feel ready later to chase the sun, go for it.

Malthus doesn't get a lot of love around here, but looking around it kind of seems like he was more right than wrong. We're overfishing the oceans leading to huge declines in large fish. Insect populations seem to be crashing. And there's also climate change, etc.

The techno-optimists will counter that there are technical solutions for all of of our problems, but it seems that a lot of these issues actually require political will that just isn't there; humans generally don't have the longterm outlook required to fix many of these things on a global scale. Politicians who try to get us to take a longer view don't seem to last long in our political systems.

So yeah, I guess the earth could probably handle more people, but that's only if those people take a much longer view and intentionally try to live much more lightly on the earth - I don't see that happening so I have to conclude that Malthus' thesis seems to (unfortunately) be correct given the reality of human nature. Changing human nature isn't something technology is going to be able to do.
It's somewhat sad that in the US there is no enforcement (probably entirely deliberately as a protectionary measure) of food marks.

I'd presume that Grueyere also has the same protections of origin (despite being Swiss and not actually in the EU).

It's the same for a whole plethora of local products [2] and thus consumers know a) what they're actually buying and b) have the confidence that it's a legit product.

It’s surprising to see PyTorch developers working on things like that when common operations like group convolutions are still completely unoptimized on Nvidia GPUs, despite many requests.
> A game engine is largely rendering, physics, controls.

If "controls" are an integral part of a game engine, then networking is as well. Networking is just another control/input device. You read bytes from your joystick driver, you read bytes from your network driver.

Building a robust input handling system that can handle a variety of input devices, high latencies, failures, recoveries, etc is absolutely an integral part of building a modern game engine.
Are those hard requirements and, if so, why? It might be worthwhile to add a "local" or "dev" mode which loads a very minimal amount of data (maybe only a handful of items are indexed and only a handful of search terms that work with them).

Solar has an average capacity factor of roughly 20%, meaning over the course of a year 1W generates an average of 0.2W.

You are using a metric of TWh/year, so multiply 1 TW * .2 * 24 hour/day * 365 day/year and that 1TW of solar generates 1700TWh/year.

Given an average lifespan of 25 years, a 1TW/year productive capacity supports 44,000TWh/year production.

Given that solar will be so cheap, I expect us to be throwing away 20%-50% of solar electricity (curtailment, in current jargon). For example, production may be sized to produce enough at the seasonal minimum (winter in Northern countries), and summer time might have ridiculous abundance.

There was an anime art generator posted here recently which could do this. If I understood correctly, they manually went through all the parameters and worked out which ones correlated with things like hair color, face type and built a web UI which could fix certain known meaningful parameters and allow the user to design a character and then the final step showed the same character in a bunch of different poses.

One lucky thing about living in Melbourne, Australia is the large Italian migrant community here (the largest number of Italian's living outside of Italy, live here).
