First: in mice.

The next thought that immediately comes to mind is, if it's an edible animal that's been available possibly for centuries, then probably people would have noticed something before. If _any_ well-known ingredient _substantially_ increased lifespan [edit: or keep you younger] by just eating it, we'd know about it for a while now.
I’ve been doing this stuff for over 30 years and I don’t think technology has appreciably changed in 30 years, it’s just refinements of the same old stuff over and over again with slightly different focuses depending on what has recently improved. The paradigm shifts are usually just caused by some bottleneck in the architecture getting a significant improvement allowing stuff that everyone knew could be possible to be possible using largely established techniques.

As a hiring manager, As long as someone can think about technology in the right way I’m happy to hire them and let them grow into a new tool chain. The thinking right part is the rare piece, the knowing XYZ tool of 2022 that’s an improvement on XYZ’ of 2012 doesn’t concern e.
> Why don't the father and mother both work less?

Because not every employer would allow this.
Kaufda is guilty of this. When i complained a about their promotional push messages, they pretended not to know what i was talking about.
I uninstalled the app which had been quite useful until that time.
I take from the downvotes that people thought this was serious. Its absurdity was intended to show how misleading the use of the word "destruction" is when talking about economic costs derived from things that are no longer needed. Being more healthy, or more efficient, is unequivocally good!
No, I’m saying that (1) for most unequal splits, father working will be more profitable than mother working, because of biology (mother has to take time off), and (2) unequal splits are better than equal splits (e.g. both working 100%, or both working 60%) because the latter have negative externalities (childcare cost, kids raised by strangers, less career progress because only working 60% etc).

Some people will still take equal splits, but not all will.

> I think gender equality is not worth a small increase in disposable income

Not gonna respond to this part because I can’t really figure out what you meant, but one comment is: “gain for society, loss for individual” usually requires a fair amount of coercion.
Complex systems can form feedback loops under just the right set of conditions.
The Santa Fe Institute (of which Geoffrey is a member) is explicitly dedicated to complex systems research. They tend to take some theoretical stances certain fields might consider controversial, but there's a lot of smart people there nonetheless. I'd also recommend Marten Scheffer's work on the stability of complex systems as particularly relevant to this thread.
Well, I have my browser (Vivaldi) set to automatically block desktop notification requests without even asking (the default is to ask) but as you point out many sites will also show an obnoxious banner and yes, uBlock is a good solution to that.

I'm surprised EasyList lets so many of these through, so I built my own (very few rules for now):

I don't really see the problem if someone is dumb enough to pay or stupid-rich enough for this to be pocket change.

Interesting to see how ridiculous an amount it is though.

This isn’t surprising, the eastern shore of the Mediterranean was a series of Greek settlements…even during the late phase of the Bronze Age.
Seems like any highly complex system can have elements that are chaotic- in the sense that they are very subject to small changes that can lead to a threshold. You may be moving a number of levers and all is going well. Then you make a change or fail to adapt to a change that in the past was not of consequence - but now it is. Only in this case you quickly find yourself at a threshold you did not expect and no amount of effort can keep you from it. If you had full understood the situation you could have easily prevented the unraveling but you did not have compete knowledge due to the complexity.
I think we'll have to agree to disagree, then. I don't think your other comment was right either: people typically give Apple more scrutiny because

A. they are the larger company

and

B. they have much more of our personal data than Meta does

In this case, I think the comparison is apt because the only thing that matters is if the current IP owners are abusing their power. In this case, I think ARM and Qualcomm would wind up to be about equally as tyrannical. If you think ARM's slate is clean, you should read into the neverending drama that is ARM China. Nobody is necessarily good here.
the chronic form is often written off when first diagnosed as "it will never affect you" - it can take decades to cause bigger problems. Dad's 80 and it's been causing bigger problems for some years. It would be surprising if there aren't new treatments for the acute form you mention as well.
Mildly related, I am currently reading “Thinking in Systems” and came upon the idea of positive reinforcing feedback loop.

I immediately have 2 questions:

- how to make a positive feedback loop for self
- can positive feedback loop be sustained indefinitely
All you said is true, but now you're shifting goal posts. You previously said Blizzard's last 'decent' game was 10 years ago, not the last game that was 'basically a pillar in the gaming wold'.

While Overwatch may not have achieved it's lofty ambitions, it's still extremely well-regarded [0], had 50 million players (which is quite impressive given that it's not free-to-play) and has grossed over $1 billion. It arguably brought the modern hero shooter genre to mainstream popularity and caused a flood of similar games to follow it. You're right, nowadays there are more popular games in that genre, but at the time it was quite a novel concept.

Since you said 10 years since the last 'decent' game from Blizzard, I assume you referred to Diablo 3. I wonder, by what metric is Diablo 3 a decent game and Overwatch isn't?

I think so too. I remember reading Larry Wall's Perl book. I found it rambling and incoherent. Didn't hold my interest for too long. Kernighan's books are quite different.
Hmmm, what iOS version? V14 doesn’t seem to have background sounds u det the Audio/Visual menu.
I believe TPoP is an updated version of Elements.
Replace “tight” with “long-running/infinite” but yeah, otherwise this is correct.
Fascinating. (Aaarrghhhhh).
Also not expert.. I was looking around for the precursors and found that Ribose has been detected in meteorites[1]. That seems to leave finding prebiotic sources of the nucleobases, purine and pyrimidine.[2] Seems this is known, tho haven't seen a natural catalytic pathway to combine them into a nucleoside.

Purine can be synthesized from Formamide via simple heating[3], and Formamide is common enough that it's hypothesized as an alternative to water, for a universal solvent in exobiology.[4,5]

So, easy enough! ;)

As remarked in sibling, it seems the harder step is the energetic bump up to a triphosphate.

No, we know the Greek ethnic origin is a series of migrations down into the Peloponnesus from the north.
Uber Eat does different channel for notification though. Mine is set exactly as you described.
I'm on LSD microdose while posting this. Have done microdoses at least 100 times in the past 10 years. This article is 100% bullshit. Just ask literally anyone who does it.
> Please before you recommend these studies to HN look at the methods section and evaluate the animal model.

I wouldn’t be surprised if a significant portion of such HN submissions are done for the precise purpose of getting appraisals of this sort from knowledgable HN readers.
I hadn't noticed, thanks for letting us now. Very poor decision (both rolling back the policy and spamming us with push notifications).
Hey, one of the creators or mirrord here.
The technology behind mirrord is actually agnostic - what it does is wrap a local process and "proxy" it's API calls to a remote environment and remote traffic is also mirrored from there.
We tailored the solution for K8S to provide seamless experience, but if there's a need for another orchestration solution, we can consider adding support :)
The fact is a lot of parents (me included!) don’t want to outsource early childhood just to level up in our jobs. In that rationale, of someone is staying home, it is a binary choice. It’s not a fully economic choice, which makes it even MORE important you make the best economic choice for who stays home. Hence the man, given wage inequality, goes to work.

There are definitely couples that both work and leverage child care of some form. That’s a reasonable choice. But it’s also comes with a large trade off from a parenting point of view.

In my family I would have loved to stay home. But I made considerably more than my wife did. When she reentered the work force she faced a lot of obstacles and essentially started over again. Fortunately I work from 6am-3pm since I’m in seattle and the org I manage is based in the UK and NYC. So my wife can work a normal job and I can pick up my daughter at school without requiring child care expenses. But it’s a little depressing for my wife to have left a high powered career and now is bouncing around the bottom of the ladder. But it got us time to parent and let us earn the most money by letting my career keep growing. It just came at the cost of her pride and self worth as a professional.
With scaling tcp can use window up to 1GB. Which is enough for 1s rtt which is ridiculously high @ 8gbps which is also ridiculous for long haul on a single flow. In practice you probably almost always just parallelize into multiple flows
The entire point of Apple, in my mind, has been their focus on user experience. It's weird seeing them lose their way every now and then. I wonder what's going on internally because no sane designer would sign off on some of these ideas.

The App Store on my iphone is only useful for installing apps I've searched for externally. Browsing categories is buried as a search suggestion?
Well, with the hub cli, it is just using GitHub's public API. I don't think it is doing anything proprietary.
What's the point of having QUIC if there isn't a protocol that actually uses it? And what would be a better protocol than HTTP? HTTP/2 was a marginal improvement but HTTP/3 and QUIC significantly improve user experience. Especially if the users have jittery networks which is the case for the majority of the world. I don't understand why it would have been a better idea to sit on these improvements for a while before getting them into the hands of users.
On Android, Shelter (available on F-Droid [0]) is a close implementation of this. Apps installed in the "shelter" (read: Android work profile) can be automatically frozen when not in use, and launcher shortcuts can be created to temporarily unfreeze and use the app. This doesn't require root, and frozen apps cannot run services, send notifications, or anything really. As a bonus, for the most part they don't even show up as installed when frozen and are completely isolated from main profile apps. The filesystem is separate however, but you can use an app that allows file sending via share contexts such as Phone Saver [1] to send files between your main profile and your shelter profile.

Also short term beneficial choices may be long term bad choices.

The industrial revolution was great for humanity for well over a century. The standard of living in industrial countries advanced farther and quicker than ever before. But that same industrial activity had long term effects that we (as a society) are only just starting to accept and are still in disagreement about how to handle.
> Anyway, the reason nobody is investing is because everybody expects the problem to go away by itself in a year or two, and if they invest now, they will start production just in time to get destroyed by the opposite phase of the whiplash effect.

Or rather because in two or three years the top CPU/GPU manufacturers will have moved to TSMC's "2nm" node size, which frees up capacity at larger nodes and that will propagate across the chain.
I'm not fighting your claim that the borrow checker has perfectly reasonable situations it can't deal with. That's why 'unsafe' exists. I've already said that.

You're adding other claims and statements that make me question if you actually understand the thing you are criticising.
Thanks for the feedback! One of the creators here :)
Our initial thought is to create a solution similar to what Lyft has done (https://eng.lyft.com/scaling-productivity-on-microservices-a...) to enable using staging as a dev environment and sharing it with many developers at once.
We do want people to use at us production later on, but right now we know there might be compliance/security issues.

I don’t disagree with you at all about the scammy nature of the industry at large. But the philosophical underpinnings of the crypto movement, especially the “hard money” idea at the heart of Bitcoin, feels very pertinent at a time when central banks have been doing exactly what the a Bitcoiners had been warning about: debauching money by printing it endlessly.

You can consider crypto a scam and you’d be largely right. But its also true that the current financial system is wildly corrupt and increasingly serves only those at the top of the totem pole.

Crypto might not be the answer but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t pose the right questions.

That's exactly why I stopped using Uber. It was annoying to not get notification when drivers arrive, but there's no way I'm giving them free access to make my pocket vibrate all day long.
Yup clicking drop table in phpMyAdmin ~15year ago because the button was next to optimize, after a party-night.

AFAIK some fields distinguish "Pilot error", caused by someone's skill as a pilot, and "Human error", caused by the fact that you are not made of silicon.

You can't prevent all error just by manipulating the inputs. For one thing, you can't fully control all the inputs.

Human error is a useful approximation because it basically says people are unreliable, and will probably be so for life.

The point isn't to blame individuals, but to built systems that are resistant to errors, and do not have behavioral single points of failure where one action can make a mess you can't easily fix.

Most of society is really deep in a "Shit happens, move on" mindset, and their solution to any human error is usually "Be more careful", which often becomes fairly meaningless, as one often can't slow down or reduce distractions.

In more reliability focused thinking, the response to human error might be to specifically train for avoiding that mistake, if you think you can, to remove the preconditions of the mistake, to add checklist procedures, or to remove the ability of the mistake to cause harm.

The study of human error has been incredibly important in my life. As of yet, nobody has been able to teach me how to stop making mistakes, day in, and day out.

But I can often predict them, sometimes prevent them, and usually mitigate them, by modeling them as background noise that's just always there, like as if my intentions and my actual thoughts were on opposite ends of a noisy dial up link.
That "3 points per $" on Chase cards also translated to credit statements when 2020 happened. It was an effective cash back at the same valuation of the points if used on travel through thr travel portal.
>I suspect you are in the minority.

Well, if s/he is, s/he's in a minority of at least two. When I see vertical video I instantly think "moron".

The reason landscape is the sensible choice is because our eyes are placed horizontally and our natural field of view is wider than it is tall. Portrait mode will be a good choice when humanity evolves to have one eye above the other.
I have won an unofficial competition in the university back in the 1990s, we competed using something called PascalRobots. The game was played via rounds of 1v1 matches. My victory came thanks to a simple trick: I noticed that certain algorithms had good success against most algorithms, but were very vulnerable against few others, which, in turn, were very vulnerable to most other ones. Basically a rock-paper-scissors problem. So I did a very simple thing: I've programmed a robot that used first 50% of health using one algorithm, and then switched to another very different one. The second one was simply running along the edges semi-randomly and scanning and shooting backwards - i remember the rules were that every action like scanning took some time so you couldn't build a robot who'd pinpoint the exact location of the enemy in the allotted time, you'd waste too many cycles on that.

>Democrats

>refuse the donations

Hahaha. They have already accepted millions of dollars donated by him to various PACs, among them Pelosi's "House Majority PAC". He was among the largest donors to Bidens campaign.

He also donated USD 10 million to "Protect Our Future" PAC, which supposedly is about protecting the environment and caring about "biodiversity" according to their website, but has actually forwarded that money to politicians. They exclusively give to Democrats as a ProPublica investigation has shown¹. $13.5 million to some candidate for Oregon that ended up losing for example.

Maybe we can use it as a self-improvement exercise:

Carve out a day every year to write a brand new bot (no reuse) to see how it fares against older bots. Try to outsmart ourselves.
We on Hacker News see managerialism every day: Venture Capitalists (mostly managing other people's capital), members of Boards of Directors (without much financial stake), and Private Equity folks (once again... other peoples money) all making decisions to maximize their financial gain without risk. Do away with the Limited Liability concept in business and you will also get rid of all the negative externalities. People only destroy common goods when there is no impact on them. When people take real ownership and they have real stake in the game, then you will see wokeness disappear as people focus on what is truly important.
> It wasn't really a walled garden, though. I remember using the AOL client software to connect to the internet and then opening IE to browse internet sites like yahoo, geocities and slashdot.

That wasn't always true. At some point internet access was a "feature" that was added to the walled-garden AOL. They famously added Usenet in September 1993. I can't find a date for web access, but I'd guess 1995.
I think it’s even simpler:

We have a cognitive bias that undervalues “negative design” — removing things from a design — and so our social structures ratchet towards more complexity until they break.

We encounter that in software or mechanical design as well.
Same for me with Psilocybin.
Microdosing never worked for me.
Indeed you are right that "gain for society, loss for individual" requires coercion, so that's why equal splits should be more profitable (if it's not the case already). That's a political decision.

"When you ask for redundancy, it's important to think about what kind of redundancy you want, and who it serves."

Well, of course that's the case. Though I must say, none of the things you listed sound like redundancy to me. They sound like an illustration of the fact that a complex system has a lot of ways to fail, and the result of a certain action can be hard to predict.

The article doesn't really drive at this though - it seems focused on irresponsible use of resources. TBH the article's whole thesis strikes me as a bit weird.
i mean, that's d2 gameplay in a nutshell. i mean, cow farming, baal farming, diablo farming... if you played any diablo, you had to do the same content non stop to get better gear. and sometimes that means weeks of farming for a small upgrade.
Having used both in production for many years, Go’s model is waayyyy better, mostly because Python’s model results in a bunch of runtime bugs.

The least of which are type error things like forgetting to await an async function—these can be caught with a type checker (although this means you need to have a type checker running in your CI and annotations for all of your dependencies).

The most serious are the ones where someone calls a sync or CPU-heavy function (directly or transitively) and it starves the event loop causing timeouts in unrelated endpoints and eventually bringing down the entire application (load shedding can help mitigate this somewhat). Go dodges these problems by not having sync functions at all (everything is async under the covers) and parallelism means CPU-bound workloads don’t block the whole event loop.
That's the result of choices we, or our elected representatives, have made. There are other choices we can make.

You know RNA can work as enzymes right?

You’re basically saying ‘let’s create some other form that was doing the work’ - which could be true - weird small crevices with certain molecular properties and different metals exposed to heat gradients where ‘the soup’ tidally comes and goes and catalyses reactions - and maybe that was an important step, but you’re also overly easily dismissing something that not only can act as that first step (maybe with some help from some unknown catalyst as a bootstrap) with the added benefit of actual inheritance
Bitcoin goes entirely too far in the opposite direction of fiat money. It’s hyperdeflationary, far more than gold. The extreme deflationary nature leads it to naturally manifest the structure of a Ponzi scheme.

It is always guaranteed to be more profitable to just hold than invest or use, and the way you ensure it keeps going up is to go out and shill for more people to buy and hold. That’s not how you run an economy if you want to do anything useful. It’s a pyramid scheme that must eventually collapse when no more HODLers can be recruited.

We do need a more transparent honest well run money system but this is not it.
This is awesome. Thank you
