It can be transmitted between family members too. I would hazard a guess that, given the risk factors for hepatitis B include being an IV drug user who shares needles, there’s probably a correlation between the mother and/or the father having hepatitis B and not bringing their kid back to get vaccinated later.
> Even if the nuclear industry were entirely unregulated, it still couldn't generate profit.

I recommend doing some simple arithmetic here. This is simply false:

As the article points out, reactors used to be under $2000/kw (this is with some regulation, just not onerous amounts). The UK electricity wholesale price is currently at £100/MWh, so at current prices your new plant in the deregulated world (which will take 5 years to make) will make back its construction costs (ignoring operating costs for now as nuclear is dominated by capital costs) in two years of operation.

That's a damn good rate of return compared to most businesses.
Looks like a generalizable solution. Is there an option to also embed images?
Yeah. Around 2019 most companies I interviewed for started telling me they're rewriting their Angular projects to React. Before that there was a good number of Angular projects, but I'm seeing only React since then, occasionally some Angular maintenance when it's not worth it to rewrite (so you don't really want to work there usually).
What is the right tooling?
On/offramp is still there if you have to get back through ETH.

I remember feeling the frog water warming up when I first heard how "wrapped ETH" was another required fee in-between... craziness.
We had that, remember flash and java applets? Well, it wasn't that great.
Agree. I think politics overall would be aided if more people called out bullshit from their own side. It’s easy to see when some “other side” spouts BS, but often harder to see and/or have the courage when it’s someone who is mostly pulling in a direction you want to go, but has an idiotic idea or is spouting bullshit.

When that step is skipped, weak or outright incorrect thoughts, ideas, and plans are allowed to propagate and become part of the movement, either in fact or via association.

When you take that step, you might offend someone whose idea was on the weak-to-bullshit spectrum, but you also hone your group’s ideas and help align the broad group of people who previously never had an opinion but are willing to get behind strong, sensible ideas.
Those lawyers aren't going to bother to go to court for less than 1000€ though. They probably don't even check if their data is correct. They hope you incriminate yourself by paying the fee and signing their prewritten contract which is massively stacked against your favour. You'll have to go to a lawyer just to write an actual cease and desist agreement and most of the time you can dodge the entire bill.
But the application is embedded in a browser. Are you saying it's fine to bin all that UI state the moment the user performs a totally normal interaction with their browser? Accidentally hitting back or refresh in a complex SPA and losing the state of the application is one of the most frustrating experiences on the web, right behind trying to hit back or refresh intentionally and being blocked because the SPA overrides those functions.
Ask HN: What is a tedious, unpleasant task that you have to do?

How to talk to customers as a student founder with no business experiences
My team and I are at the very beginning of building a SaaS product targeted as SMEs and we want to talk to customers. However, none of us has experiences building relationship with customers, and we fear we may not appear credible since we do not have experiences nor a product to show yet.

Any advice on how to approach customers as student founders? And convince them to share their pain points to help us shape the product?
For me, this depends on the composer. E.g. Beethoven moments wear down quickly on repeated listening, while Bach's moments are more durable.
this is sorta of elitist article that people cant relate to. One of the major reasons why people are leaving netflix is because their sub is expensive af compared to all the other streaming services. I could sub to 4 different major streaming services for cheaper than the mid-tier sub on netflix. I'm glad to see them lose sub and look forward to see their complete fall for being greedy tools

Plenty of Android phones don't come with Google preinstalled.

Even if you have Google on your phone, that doesn't mean you won't need a paid data plan to actually use it.

But that's the point? If you want better usability, you're expected to pay for full internet access.
Trade is not bad. Saying you don't have a use for nuclear and then using it anyways while badmouthing it is bad.
Make a government buying carbon. Like one cubic meter is $1000 or whatever cost would be interesting. Spend the money and bury those cubes in deep shafts. Let the market handle it.
The process to calculate inflation is transparent, you don't have to wonder.
imo, this liquidity is precisely what's stifling widespread crypto adoption. Speculators kill long term growth of any project and punish actual users the most. GameFi is the perfect example - prices go up as speculators pile in. Actual gamers suddenly can't afford to play (which is why you have gaming "scholarships" - an absurd idea).

Most projects that have earmarked tokens for their employees suffer as well. As the token goes through the speculative pump and dump, employees with locked in tokens can watch their networth go from millions to nothing - without being able to do anything about it. Employees constantly jump ship because after the dump, they realize that their locked in tokens are worth very little - and when the vesting ends, they market dump it all to get whatever profit they can. As the price craters, the project finds it harder and harder to attract new talent.

I've seen this happen with so many projects that I now appreciate why we don't have exchanges for new businesses. Can you imagine what the startup world would be like if every startup was listed on a stock exchange immediately after it was founded? You'd have speculators pumping up the stock price based on rumor and/or fact ("YC invested! Sequoia is in!"). Employee vested ESOPs would go from millions to nothing and hiring future employees would be extremely hard since their ESOPs would be worth nothing.
Isn't this true of the broader media marketplace? If you look at Prime, once you're past some recognisable movies, you'll see a hilarious list of 3-4/10 IMDB movies you've never heard of before. They're out there and they get no buzz and are largely ignored.

On Netflix, they're throwing stuff at the wall to see what will stick. And they're doing it in various genre because it's a diverse world out there (an Indian soapie is different to a British one, for example). While your bar might be high, someone starved of space x zombie crossovers will like something just enough not to cancel their subscription for a couple more months.
I haven’t heard that term in a while.

I remember one of the most profound statements I’ve ever heard about music.

I was channel-surfing, a number of years ago, and paused on Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood. He was putting on a record (yes, the round black things), and said ”Music helps us to feel things.”
You don’t buy iphone for the hardware, you buy it for the ios.

So the right question is not whether you happy with samsung, but with Android.

From my experience most of the ios apps and features are way better for me as an end user (not as a hacker) than android swamp.
I have a bit of the same problem. I "solve it" by removing all video recommendations and blanking out the Home page. My YouTube watching is now constrained to the Subscriptions tab! I feel this lets me get the positives from YouTube, and limits my potential for misuse.

I don't use the YouTube app on mobile (instead using Firefox), so I'm able to use UBlock's cosmetic filters to remove the 'dangerous' elements. Recently the filter changed and I got sucked into recommended videos again (with significantly increased watchtime the last month or so). This post made me fix it again!

Also, my phone's Wellbeing settings allows set time restrictions on specific apps. It's a bit too easy to "game", but at least it gives me some feedback on how much time I spend on things.

But honestly, we're only animals: slacking off is a desired trait. We just need to put in some guardrails to avoid overindulgence. Good luck! :-)
And that’s more extreme on Netflix than other channels? White Lotus on HBO touched every woke topic in existence and was enjoyable. It’s the content that matters not how it leans.
Indeed. One of the first big rulings that nuclear fans complained about was that nuclear had to comply with a law that applied generally to all industrial activities, the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The AEC had interpreted their responsibilities under this act very narrowly, and lost in court on that when sued.

On the surface this seems like an interesting idea, but I feel like you will run into some issues here:

1. Textbook makers are generally not happy when you copy whole pages (as an image or not) from their textbooks and I wouldn't be surprised if you start receiving takedown requests as a result - especially considering you seem to have the ability to let people charge for their notes.

2. On a similar note, if this were to start drilling down to students sharing notes at a per-class level, some professors have warnings explicitly disallowing the redistribution of their slides.

3. The main page of the website is in english but as it currently stands, absolutely none of the actual content is in english.. it seems a bit odd to link this on a forum that is primarily english speaking as a result
Great job on this! It looks fantastic and I think you'll do well. I like how you moved to token use for logins. Passwords are dumb.

I thought about these types of features for Mitta.us (which is NOT done, but operational), but it was too much work. Glad I put it off, because you did a much better job.

I'm adding a !biztoc command to Mitta for search, but it would be cool to be able to add some post parameters like https://biztoc.com/post?title=foo&url=https://zombo.com to post as well.
Because it is a useless answer. You don't answer "what is the best tool for the job at hand that matches my team and budget" by "use the best tool for the job at hand that matches your team and budget".
> Also, electrical heating is one of most wasteful and damaging ways to do heating, and Germany has been moving away from electrical heating for this reason for decades now.

Not disagreeing with the rest of the arguments, but electrical heat pumps are actually the most efficient way to heat your home (theoretically you can get about 5 W of heat for every 1W of electricity, for practical ones it's a bit more than 3W IIRC).

That said, it's not trivial to convert old houses to use heat pumps. Cost is one issue, but they typically require better insulation because they don't have the same power that you can get with a gas heater.
As someone who is pretty decent at go (6k OGS, for those who know what that means), I teach go in a pretty unorthodox way, which has so far produced much better results than the way I see other teach it.

The way I teach both the rules and basic strategy of go is to start with the smallest possible board 1x1 and work our way up.

on a 1x1 board, it's impossible to place any stones because it has no liberties. Great now the player knows about liberties.

Then we move to a 2x2 board, where it is possible to place a stone and capture the opponent's stone. Great now we know about captures and ko.

Then we move to 3x3, where we find ourselves able to create our first live shapes, and get to score the board. Now we know when the game ends and how to score it!

Then we move on to 5x5, where we play our first 'real' game, now knowing all the rules.
Sounds interesting; harmonically it is correct, but temporally there is room for improvement (e.g. adherence to measure lengths and form over the entire number of measures); apparently MIDI data is used for training and is generated (correct me otherwise) so it is comparable to https://openai.com/blog/musenet/; is there a publication somewhere explaining the details?
I would say this is not just a problem in the US. In France there is the same problem. The wages just aren't worth it for this kind of hard work.

A good carpenter I knew a while back was making maybe at best 2500 euros per month with overtime after tax with more than 10 years of experience.

Despite being a team leader he still had to lift, bend and work just like his subordinates. You could tell that it was starting to take a toll on his body.

The job is tough, when its cold in winter and you stand on a ladder and its raining and your fingers are frozen, you have to keep going. In summer, you are on a roof and is 35 degrees Celsius outside and there is no shade.

One misstep and you can fall down, but you have to keep going to be productive. So sometimes you bend the rules a little. Then you hurt yourself.

There is also more and more drug and substance abuse in the trades. You take some painkillers at night because your joints hurt. You take blow because you can work faster and longer.
Drinking on the job is also well tolerated.

In truth this is a young man's game.

My dad has been in the construction trade on and off for the last 30 years and his body is starting to give up. I myself was a laborer before joining the tech world. I injured my knee on the job and now every once in while I have pain so I have to be careful to not run or walk too quickly otherwise it flares up.

I think construction workers should be closely monitored for physical injuries and be told the truth about their job and the toll it will eventually take on their bodies. Some people think they are invincible.

My dad knew this guy in his twenties(20 years ago) who thought he was the toughest of all. Carrying heavy stuff day in and out, climbing on ladders with a heavy load on his back and shoulders.

The last time I saw him a few years ago(he is know in his forties), he was a broken man and wearing some sort of back support at all times because his back is in shambles. Obviously he doesn't work in the trades anymore.

Presumably you mean only lose 20% of its capacity?
The "industry" is stagnant because it's private, so NOT to deliver a service but to make profits, it's like nation-wide fiber-optic networks in less dense areas, profit is INCOMPATIBLE with quality of the service for all.

Nuclear works only as a way to have a constant (as much as possible) amount of power over time, something for the whole society something that's only viable if done by FULLY public utilities only owned by States who just need to deliver electricity to power anything.

My only hope in this regards is that as much as the crisis bite more and more people realize that the neo-feudal society neoliberals have built is against 99% of the people and so react ERASING the private-public sector confining to States-only public show for ALL essential services like:

- natural resource management

- energy production and supply

- water supply

- health, pharmaceutical sector included

- TLCs

- academia (well founded public research, for the public, powerful and strictly not patentable or obtainable in any exclusive way by the private sector)

- weapons

- basic food production to ensure survival of resident in any area for an undefined period of time

- basic nation-wide logistics

Like it WAS in the very recent past. Of course such changes accompanied with life sentences for most relevant private-sector and public traitors and criminals against humanity not to punish them, that's simply impossible, but to teach others not to never ever try again their criminal path.

Yes, I'm serious, no, I'm not at all "an extremist" from the right or left part of the spectrum.

Any examination of Netflix that does NOT include Go Woke Go Broke is a joke. Everyone I know is at least aware of how cookie cutter and predictable the woke agenda is on every Netflix original, and it is a reoccurring topic when people finally decide to cancel
In the first days of invasion, when the shock and uncertainty was at its highest, I was reading everything I could to get some sense of what's truly going on and what are the odds. Kamil's threads struck me by the depth of undestanding of russia's internals. I mean, many things are no surprise to me, and are well known for Ukrainians, and yet that was another level. In a way, reading his analyses and explainers helped me psychologically at that moment – even empowered in a way. I can only compare it with being diagnosed with cancer, and reading Siddhartha Mukherjee's Pulitzer-winning book "The Emperor of All Maladies". It doesn't fix your problem, but empowers with knowledge and more intimate understanding of the enemy, which can dramatically shift your internal assesment of risks and danger.
From the perspective of a totally corrupt theorist, the response may not entirely be a positive thing. Richard Taruskin wrote about it in the opening essay of The Dangers of Music and other Anti-Utopian Essays[1].

> So much one may elicit from a pithed frog, and—if you remember your high school biology class—under conditions that are not dissimilar. Philip Glass, indeed, speaks frankly of eliciting a “biological” response from his audience. Here are his own words on the opera whose effects Wilson described:

> I decided that I would try to write a piece that left the audience standing, and I’ve almost never played that music without seeing everyone leave his seat; it’s the strangest thing, almost biological. In fact, sometimes I’ve done concerts where I’ve played the Spaceship [i.e., the Einstein finale], and then as an encore played the last part of the Spaceship, and the same thing happens again.

> But no, there is nothing strange about this: it’s basic behavior-modification therapy, and so far from spontaneous or liberating, it is calculated authoritarian manipulation. I find it sinister. My first contact with P&P came in June 1983 (yes, I’d been avoiding it) at a little festival sponsored by the New York Philharmonic and organized by the orchestra’s then composer-in-residence, Jacob Druckman, around the theme “Since 1968—A New Romanticism?” Druckman’s keynote essay in the program spoke optimistically of the “reemergence of . . . Dionysian qualities: sensuality, mystery, nostalgia, ecstasy, transcendency.” What I heard, in John Adams’s Grand Pianola Music, was an attempt to reduce me to an autonomic nervous system. My body responded to the programmed thrills and chills even as my mind protested. I, too, felt gooseflesh—and, I’ll admit, gooseflesh at a new-music concert was indeed a novelty. But it was a gooseflesh brought about not by way of evocation or epiphany but by anesthetizing the conscious mind and then administering a series of galvanic shocks. For me the experience was frightening. What had won so many over left me feeling diminished and degraded. And I guess I’m sounding like old man Adorno in spite of myself.

> Germany has been a large net exporter of electricity for years. 18.9 TWh

It does not mean anything if they can't decide when they export it.

Waht matters though, is that most of the time their electricity has an awful carbon footprint w.r.t what the wealthiest country in Europe should afford. All the rest is but mental gymnastics to try to justify that.
UAE's plants are, certainly in retrospect and probably earlier, a mistake. They produce output at something like 5x the cost per kWh of what utility scale solar can achieve there (about $0.013/kWh for large utility scale solar). In the time between the process to build those plants was started and when they came online, solar has crashed in cost by nearly an order of magnitude.

Yep... Fairly bizar that a smalltalk env on an old computer is faster for iteration than the modern react/typescript stack. Better errors, easier to debug etc. All because the tooling was from the future. React peeps think hot reload is something special. It was normal and it was faster and more robust than it is now.
Enjoyable is subjective. White Lotus was terrible in my opinion.

Not sure why you are arguing? People have stated that's the reason they have quit, and yet you are somehow suggesting that we are wrong? Or because another service does it?
