I know that I am part of a minority when saying this, and to give some context, I live in a Social Democracy and do like it as it is.

Now, why I don't like this foundation. First off, every bad thing happening in communist countries seems to be attributed to the concept of communism itself, and not to the fact that these countries are ruled by dictators. They also state "we tell the truth about communism because our vision is for a world free from the false hope of communism"

If shit happens in our capitalist countries, this rarely gets blamed on capitalism as a whole, and even if, it's not taken seriously by many. I've never seen someone blame capitalism for what happened at Guantanamo Bay, as an example.

"a world free from [...] communism". It seems like this foundation is part of a majority who doesn't actually educate themselves about communism. As someone who has read what Marx, Engels any many others came up with, I can just shake my head if I read what is written on this foundations website. The big issue with communism is that dictators use this system to enrich themselves, BUT, communism should be a system where the proletariat rules, not a single person.

If anyone would create a "Victims of Capitalism Memorial Foundation", the west would instantly laugh it off and deny such criticism. But as we have seemed to conclude that commies are the bad guys, everyone is fine with people blaming absolutely everything on Communism.

And now to end, no, I am not communist. I live in one of the richest, capitalist countries, in a social democracy. I just don't like it when Communism is being blamed in such weird ways and it especially pisses me off if such things come from the US - a country where news talking heads frequently trash Socialism/Communism as a boogeyman, even if it makes zero sense. Add to that the atrocities that the US has caused in our world (Y'all also do tons of cool stuff, I'm not Anti-US, just objectively critical), atrocities which rarely get blamed on the whole country and instead on groups or even specific people, and I can't take such generalized criticism against whole systems seriously.

China does evil shit all the time as well. Surveillance, the stuff in Xinjang and more, just to also make clear that I am not a chinese puppet. But keep the criticism real.

This comment also gives more concrete criticism: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31489695
Indirectly yes, but it's more accurate to talk about how may users they can serve in a given area. With the current constellation they've actually maxed out the capability of it in most of the eastern half of the United States. https://www.starlink.com/map
Where are the death camps? The gas chambers? This comment has no place on HN for sheer idiocy and sensationalism.

> “A chat sent from this person’s phone tripped the detector” is a reasonable justification.

A black box detector that similar to a trained drug dog will bark on command. Last time a secret internet block list pushed by von der Leyen was leaked it became clear that they wont limit this stuff to child protection and will do their best to keep the actual criteria used secret. Just mentioning the name von der Leyen in a chat might get you on a list. It is times like these where I would love to have the GDR back, a place where we could just drop of all the crazy Stasi wannabees.
A storage medium that does not tend to burst into flame emitting vaporized Drano would be a much better choice to pack together by the hundreds of tons. Iron-air is one such chemistry. Liquid metal is another.

Does circumcision actually have a non-neglible impact on the risk? From what I remember, it is insignificant, at best.
Big tractors are also more fuel efficient, which is a bit counterintuitive.
I would think so. There is a lot going on in this area, see e.g. https://pixelfarmingrobotics.com/robot-one/ and https://www.odd.bot/
I very much doubt it. The entire point of that is to gauge the location of the user based on the existing street view imagery. Perhaps they'll add something eventually where users can contribute imagery from their phones, but I think that feature won't be the way to do it.
Yes! It read like a ‘Fake Invisible Catastrophe and Threat of Doom.’
Why not build tractors with treads, like a tank? The whole point of tank treads is to maximize the ground surface area that the vehicle weighs on.
The problem here is the gap between Israeli Arabs (citizens, full rights, political participation) and Palestinean Arabs (live in the same country, limited rights and political participation, citizens of partially recognizes quasistate).
I am a Ghost user and there's a lot to like about it. One omission that I find strange is the lack of support for i18n. Both the payment flow (Portal), e-mail newsletters and transactional emails going out to subscribers have hard-coded English strings and you need to maintain a fork to translate it. Just seem strange to me in 2022.
You're exhibiting the exact behaviour that you're chastising by negatively focusing on points the article didn't even make. The article promotes genuine positivity and human emotion whilst considering the circumstances of those around you.

Please take a second to read the HN guidelines if you genuinely want to make HN (and the world) a more positive and constructive place: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
Russia started war in Chechnya (first indirectly by arming opposition, then by literally starting war). Spinning it to say that they tried to win the war to turn Chechnya to peaceful region is very disingenuous.
> No, they are called Nazis, when anyone with a even a shred of reason would conclude that Zionism is the very reincarnation of Nazism and is used to suit their own agenda and narrative.

What? Israel doesn't run concentration camps, forced labor camps, or rounds up and executes Palestinians for being Palestinians.

That comparison is not just factually wrong, it's one of the most morally despicable takes I have ever had the displeasure of reading here on HN.
Processing web requests & some reports, pretty much the same as everyone do nowdays. Dev team add some features, but still on scale it the same - web requests and reports.

CPU is pretty much idling, like ~ 10-15% used on average, in spikes may be 20%. But that's minimal CPU hoster gives with RAM 128GB+ platform, so using it.

RAM (~ 110GB) obviously used for DB and the for auxilary tasks.
DB itself is medium sized, with raw data ~ 1.5TB yet
DISK IO on average is pretty high, around 55%, with often spikes to 100%, that part I'd add more IOPS on if response times grow above the limits.
Sauropods are presumably the heaviest things we know to have worked the land in anything like a sustainable way: being herbivores they obviously can't survive for long as a species if they permanently damage the soil to the point of being unproductive simply by walking on it.

It would be fair to object that what was unsustainable by plants then might not be a problem for more modern plants, but I'm not sure what your comment about other methods aims at. The uncertainty comes from machines reaching previously unexplored weights, comparing with soil effects from lighter methods is unlikely to tell you if there's something bad coming.
Author here. I haven't done much with the code in about 3 years. But I still have lots of plans for it.

The big thing is I want to write my own UDP protocol for it. It'll be similar to MoSH's in the sense it's optimised for text, only sends diffs and supports network roaming. But it'll be different in the sense that Browsh is a _document_ viewer first and secondly a live-updating UI. Basically, you shouldn't have to wait for a roundtrip to scroll the contents of the page.

Then with this protocol, there can of course be multiple clients. Including JS in normal browsers! (I don't know how well UDP is supported in browsers, so maybe it falls back to TCP). I think I want Browsh to be mainly a text-based browser that actually runs in normal browsers. That might sound counter-intuitive, but recall that the Browsh server runs _remotely_, the actual downloading and native rendering of a webpage is done by Firefox/Chromium in a healthy datacentre in some big city.

Hopefully I can find a way to fund a nice big farm of Browsh servers to provide a free tier. With that and the JS client, you won't even need to download an app to use Browsh, just a few Kbs of JS in any normal browser.
What software do you use to manage/develop against the postgres db?
In this case, you will not enjoy Oberon+, although it supports (lean) generics. This shows that the view of what is minimal and optimal is ultimately also strongly subjective, which is actually not surprising.
I've been listening to Nick Offerman read The World-Ending Fire: The Essential Wendell Berry. Wendell talks about using horses instead of tractors - the impact on the land and the economics. (using horses is just a small part of the economics - a community / local approach being a large aspect of Berry's writings)

Coming soon: Chris Pratt using a team of sauropods to farm in the next Jurassic Park movie.

> It’s natural to emulate what we see online. But, going overboard on the ‘positive vibes’ may affect your content.

Agreed, come on, splitting the sentence there just made it worse. Unlike many people, I'm not opposed to sentences that start with "but", but here it serves no purpose. It's not like we have an attention span of six words.
Yeah, I don't want to be cruel, in case the author is reading this, but it really is uniquely egregious writing (no toxic positivity here!). The broken-up sentences you mention are. Awkward and mostly grammatically inco. Rrect as a result. They seem weirdly unaware of the incredibly basic writer's injunction to vary your sentence length. There's no rhythm or cadence to it. You can literally feel the author grimly trudging toward the target word count.

It feels completely disconnected from anything real, full of unevocative abstract nouns connected with unevocative abstract verbs. "Don't be too hard on yourself if you're struggling with negative thoughts" - well, what the fuck do you think 'negative thoughts' are? Reading this felt like having my teeth pulled.

I think the biggest problem, though, is that they really just do not have anything valuable to say. I wouldn't be surprised if it were written at gunpoint. We used to write essays on random subjects instead of lines as a punishment at school, and I think those essays were more enthusiastic and insightful than this one. It just meanders along, with no overarching direction or purpose, from useless bromide to useless bromide, until they get to the word count and stop, and that's it.

I suspect the problem is that Google can't fully crawl stackoverflow/github etc.

How is this possible, given their insane resources and expertise? If they can't crawl fast enough, can't they simply make a deal with Microsoft to get the public data from Github the moment it is created? I assume they have similar deals with other companies (Twitter maybe? for their firehose?).

This particular thing doesn't seem to be a tech limitation. Most likely Google doesn't care enough to fix the issue, they could probably fix it in a week if they wanted to.

At this point, nothing is going to improve until a serious competitor to Google comes along. And I don't see that happening anytime soon, so all the issues that users have with Google are likely going to stay.
Are those numbers from the same people that tricked you into believing that HIV was not primarily a disease among men who have sex with men?
So its semantics over the meaning of simple - some mean simple as in not meany features, the other means simple to get things done with.
Many people call C a hard language because it's quite hard to get stuff done with it, while others call it simple because the feature set is small and writing compilers for it is relatively easy.
Agree. Still the price hugely differs.
This statement is demonstrably false. Yes, people intuitively apply game theory all the time. For example, it is well established that in states with a three strikes law police officers are killed or attempted to be killed by felons having just committed their third strike, because it makes sense from a game theoretical point of view: there is no downside to it (if you're caught, life inprisonment awaits you), but there's a chance to escape.
Carbonara - In most European countries/capital cities that are not in/or Italy, all the restaurants I've seen add cream to it which honestly makes the dish even heavier than what it already is, charge quite a lot for a plate, and, in 99% of the cases, you get a subpar, lukewarm pasta dish.

At home, it's very easy to do it well, following the original recipe, it's extremely basic, very few ingredients, and honestly, tastes really awesome!!

Disclaimer: I'm portuguese and a total foodie and pasta dishes are right up my alley, so, YMMV.
I have a big issue with this rule, especially if it's about my own comment: People downvoted my comment without giving a feedback about what they don't like. How should I better myself in this case? I'm not saying that these votes are unjustified, I would just like to know why I received them. I wasn't trolling or insulting someone, so it's not like my comment is objectively bad.

As soon as I added my edit to ask why I was downvoted, people started giving feedback about it, you can check the timestamps yourself. So If I wouldn't have asked for it, I maybe still wouldn't know why people didn't like what I wrote.

Now I know that the rule you posted is as it is and can't be argued against, I just wanted to explain why I broke it. I actually never looked at the HN Guidelines, guess I should.

And thanks for posting the rule :)

Geoguessing has been going on for a while, and some people are very good at it.

One of the situations where it’s deployed for the good of all is real estate: it’s very common for brokers to hide the exact location for various reasons, but there are forums and individuals who from just a few pictures pointing outdoors and a rough location (e..g closest city) can very quickly find the exact location the picture was taken from.

Super useful so you don’t have to waste time visiting in order to find out that the house which looked good over the internet is sandwiched between a 6-lane highway and a pig farm, or is in a gated community, or can only be accessed through an easement.
A casual Google search will turn up evidence.

Just one example of many: Uyghur workers, complete with police guards, are being supplied to factories throughout China.

"Another new advertisement claimed to be able to supply 1,000 Uyghur workers aged 16 to 18 years. It reads: ‘The advantages of Xinjiang workers are: semi-military style management, can withstand hardship, no loss of personnel … Minimum order 100 workers!’. The advertisement also said that factory managers can apply for current Xinjiang police to be stationed at their factory 24 hours a day, and that the workers could be delivered (along with an Uyghur cook) within 15 days of the signing of a one-year contract (Figure 9)."

Another piece of evidence: comprehensive mapping of a network of 380 detention facilities:

This page, "The Xinjiang Data Project", hosts a series of ongoing reports and data from Xinjiang:

Around 200 write tx/s as a baseline. Spikes to 2000 write tx/s at the start of every minute, and 4000 write tx/s every 10 minutes.

No, but that's not the same. Signatures and checks are covered by terms & conditions (and law) that you must follow.

A better anology is if you figure out a mathematical advantage within the rules of a casino game, are you allowed to win? I believe you are, as long as it's within the rules of the game. And the casinos are smart enough to create rules against any lasting mathematical advantage.
> All I'm saying is, arranged visits by Chinese government to Xinjiang are meaningless and can't prove, or even hint, what China is really doing there. The "evidence" provided by China will look the same, regardless of their fault or virtue.

Just following the lines of thought. Essentially they've already accepted that the china trip is tainted and meaningless, even before taking the chance to opening their perspective on whether they could be wrong.

If life is suffering why not give up then?

This goes counter to the values of being 'open'. For someone of the free world this isn't very free.
All we know is that it apparently worked for Sauropods, not what the upper limits are, and it need not have been sustainable, that depends on how big an area they were covering and how many of them there were, that it was sustainable is something the article seems to assume without further consideration.

Other methods are more applicable because we actually have data on what works and what doesn't with respect to soil loading, farmers really do not want to damage their land ('damage it in an hour, take a decade to recover') and have learned the hard way not to overload the soil already.
I disagree. I don't think a lack of a good QA team breaks a project. Modern gaming is actually a great example that it doesn't. A lot of (most?) video games released nowadays are riddled with bugs. And yet they still make a lot of money through sales, micro transactions, seasonal passes, dlc etc. Even when a game releases with no major bugs it doesn't attract new players who will spend money.

>The game industry needs to be reorganized around the people who make the games instead of finance them.

I don't see how this would work. Somebody has to pay all the salaries, legal expenses, expensive equipment and software etc. Expecting people that want to work on video games to pull that kind of money out of pocket to fund a project that may or may not make any money is unreasonable. Nobody that wants to invest their money is going to give it to people who won't give them a return.

>>> 99% of people have horrible taste in just about everything

> My point wasn't to denigrate people for having poor taste

These are directly contradictory. "horrible taste" is a denigrating term.
In China you are a member of an ethnic minority if one of your grandparents was of that ethnicity, who themselves might only have had one grandparent of that ethnicity. There are also incentives for people to register as members of minority groups such as scholarships*, yet also stark differences in the treatment of members of minorities who are or are not integrated into Chinese culture and the communist party in particular.

It's a deliberate program of ethnic and cultural dilution and assimilation. As a result the CCP, police, etc in these regions are packed with "members of ethnic minorities" who are culturally entirely Han/Commnist and may have had an ethnic ancestor, or at least have a certificate that says so. This process is much more advanced in regions like Inner Mongolia, but they're grinding away at the native culture in Xinjiang and Tibet.

* Funnily enough the criteria for scholarships open to minority groups emphasise academic performance in secular subjects, in the Chinese language and often with a political dimension heavily favouring students with strong Han cultural backgrounds.*
> Turkish police have detained over one hundred Uighurs

Seems unbelievable considering Uighurs are, well, Turkic. Due in no small part to Genghis Khan of course.

explained a few comments above - the question isn't that of direct pressure (that could indeed be solved by using tracks), but sub-surface pressure. Probably how the overall structure is held together and distributes weight in depth under the overall vehicle surface.

In that sense, it would probably help making tractors more like ships...
The double descent discussion is interesting and insightful but oversimplified, IMHO. It would have been better if it had embraced the problem, in the sense of scope and unresolved issues.
They do, and this is fairly common on vast machines like combine harvesters.

However they are a lot more expensive to run and maintain - eg. just think about the additional moving parts and friction.

Also it's possible they do different damage - the metal treads are not as forgiving as soft balloon tyres.

Animals are far smarter than you think, and instinct is far less important than you think. Most animals learn by imitation of their parents or others of their own species. This is a big part of why reintroduction of captive animal populations into the wild is so difficult.

And adaptability is highly variable by species; koalas will for quickly without their specific eucalyptus, but raccoons will thrive just about anywhere.

As I've read and researched, I've come much closer to the opinion that we're slightly smarter monkeys with writing.
