> But there was a silver lining for Jordan: After his testing debacle, he was still able to land a new job at the Department of Corrections, proving that at least he wasn’t too smart to be a prison guard.

I'd suggest that this is because prison guard turnover is high so it won't cost them any more than usual when he gets 'bored' and leaves.
the supervision argument has always been strange to me because after school you have gaggles of unsupervised children who have maybe a 2-3 hour gap between the school day ending and their parents getting home. are kids dying in droves between 3 pm and 5:30?
I'm wondering what they're planning on charging for this.

If the prices are low enough (or free, as it appears to be during the beta period), it would be a complete game-changer; existing Weather APIs aren't cheap.
It could help, thanks for that. It looks like the drops I use aren't on there. Problem is, its kind of a confidence game. My eye doc says to me, use brand X drops, they are the best. But they also aren't covered by insurance, and are distributed by an online pharmacy my doc _may_ have a financial stake in (I can't confirm this but I have a suspicion.) So do I ignore her advice and take different drops, which might be cheaper, but potentially have more issues with eyes down the road? I don't know.

For now I've decided to take the expensive brand-name drops, and we're monitoring to see if my condition progresses or not. After a couple years of this I might switch.
You can reasonably ask an unreasonable request. If the neighbour politely told me that they don’t like me walking past their house on the public sidewalk, I will ignore such a request because I’m entitled to walk on public property. Just like how I believe it’s unreasonable to request people do not link to public web pages.

A reasonable request would be “I never published this publicly or have since deleted it, please stop reposting it”

The subjective part is they believe it is reasonable to request this while others do not.
Editorial mistake aside, is that a 1.1 kW output? That's not a lot of power at all and wouldn't power my kettle.

Economically speaking, nothing in crypto is a new. Only the fact that they obfucate the 'free money' with technical gargon.

Paypal paid was burning hundreds of millions of dollars a month in giving away free money in order for it to gather market share.

Looks like they are developing new markets to get to the cost advantages of scale.
It sounds like we're just struggling to find something to disagree about.

The prison system is overstuffed due to decades of the war on some drugs. It's entirely on-topic without saying "drugs" or "legalization" directly. As long as drugs are criminalized, this sort of discussion of crime exactly includes drugs.
With opiate prohibition, Purdue had to convince doctors, and doctors had to convince patients, that the drugs they were using were safe and not like those nasty street drugs that ruin lives and cause addiction. That lie was deadly.

Without opiate prohibition, you can have honest educational programs that help people seeking opiates use them as responsibly as possible and you can provide available, nonjudgmental services for helping them reduce or stop their usage.
I find comical a society that imposes a certain rigor upon itself, but then as those rituals and practices devolve into soulless automaton tasks, said society moves to reduce friction instead of addressing the core problem that rigor had sought to solve initially.

> the vast majority of the US

It's worth noting that <hotter | colder> than the vast majority of the US isn't a particularly useful metric.

- The people that say their kids can't walk to school because of the winter weather could be in an area where it's constantly below freezing and it's common to have over a foot of snow on the ground most of the time (ie, there is ONLY the road to walk on, and it's unsafe because of the snow).
- The people that say their kids can't walk to school because of the heat could be in an area where 110degree weather is common (somewhat less of an issue since most school doesn't happen in the hottest months; but there is summer school).
- There are plenty of places in the US where the houses are so far apart that its not realistic to have a school that even moderately close to more than a couple of them.

Even if "most of the US" is more temperate than "some location where kids walk to school", there's still plenty of places where its considerably less reasonable to walk to school year round.
"We're not in a recession, we're in the early stages of a depression. A depression is a self-feeding liquidity crisis - it's a cash-flow squeeze that occurs when the economy turns down, inventories are being sold, borrowings increased, and liquidity reduced."
- Raymond T. Dalio, New York Times, Jun 27, 1982

"For decades the numbers have told us that each time the capacity utilization figure moves over 85 percent, the inflation rate rises, and also that each inflation cycle tends to peak at a higher level than the preceding one. During this inflation cycle, we expect capacity utilization to cross the 85 percent line by early 1985, when the CPI should be running at an annual rate of 7.8 percent and well on its way to a cyclical peak of about 11.5 percent sometime in 1986."

Sailboat scene was decent too.
Eh, I've found kubernetes more complicated than the interface of a cloud provider, you always have to do the cloud provider as well for some things, and the benefits of the pre-baked helm charts or whatever else just aren't there until the relatively small difference in efficiency in each way of doing things makes a real difference as a result of scale.

If you have a lot of experience with any interface, you can do it really efficiently, but if you don't, kubernetes can make your experience worse than anything you'd come up with on a cloud provider.
At least Warren Buffet has a decent track record.

But the idea that “oh he’s wealthy so what he says is important” is a bit odd when you take a step back.

I mean if Bill Gates says something about software I’m all ears. Something about healthcare? The fuck does he know about that?
This is a particularly absurd example, but more subtle versions of this policy show up in many large police departments. For example, the NYPD requires half of a college degree at a rock-bottom GPA[1], and has been agitating for the current mayor (himself an ex-cop) to drop even that requirement[2].

Edit: I forgot to mention that two years of military service also exempts prospective cops from needing half of a college degree.

How is this better than astro?
Oh, I should also say, for a helicopter autorotation is only particularly helpful if you have enough forward airspeed or height to initiate it. Helicopters come with an HV diagram indicating safe flight envelope, such that autoration could be initiated in case of an engine failure, or you are low enough for a crash to be survivable if you do not have enough height or airspeed for autoration.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicopter_height%E2%80%93velo...

In an eVTOL, if you have enough height or velocity, you should be able to glide on the wing. So you'll be wanting to keep yourself in the appropriate region of the HV curve, and your emergency engine out procedure will be much more like a conventional fixed wing aircraft, rather than a helicopter.
I don’t think that contradicts OP’s point, though? If you buy in you’re someone else’s yield. The mechanism for that transfer is that your investment depreciates faster than the yield, while the other person is able to liquidate and you’re not.
> economically beneficial

In some cases, it's more a concern of economically _viable_. Sometimes, the fact that something would cost more means it's not possible. We have teachers that have to pay for the children's school supplies out of their own pockets, because the school system doesn't get enough money.
The Tesla powerwall is 13.7 kWh.

I would bet this will be priced better per kWh because there's less of a status symbol to it, but 8.7 is a lot smaller.
Certainly.

The time to prepare for this was in November - December 2021. [0] When the market euphoria was going close to its peak of peaks. Look at the responses then in [0]: 'Stock market up 1% today' on a daily chart. When I said it already started months ago [1], some point to data about the Fed 'official' announcements of being in (and defining) a recession and even still boldly suggesting afterwards: 'We are most certainly not in a recession.'

This is how the 99% think.

The problem is as with many of the commenters at the time still failed to understand is, you never, never, NEVER wait for the news to come out to prepare then or look at 'daily charts'.

You must prepare and expect for anything unexpected in the long term in advance, such as months or a year for events just like this. Uncertainty is frowned upon, especially when it is prolonged.

It was lower than that. If you click on the Historical Data tab, you'll see they report a low of $0.9485 for May 12.

However, it may well have dropped even further depending on the exchange. These aggregators aren't a reliable source generally speaking.

Wouldn't it be more accurate to call these unstablecoins?
The US treasury yield curve is not a predictive model.

It’s a fundamental component of the global economy. It is in the “ground truth” for market demand and supply for cash flows across time horizons, at a point in time.
Impact printers make pretty good bursts of noise when they're doing intermittent work. When they've got a nice long print job, you can tune it out, but it's still pretty loud.
> It's incredibly easy to stay up too late when you're hyperconnected and chatting with your classmates late into the night. It just wasn't even a possibility 20 years ago.

I stayed up until 2 or 3 am reading books because I wasn’t tired. They’re staying up chatting with their friends because they’re not tired. The connection is the “not being tired.”
>operating temperatures ranging from -20 C to 45 C.

I'm curious to see how thermal management is done. 45 C is not _that_ hot for a black box in the [insert warm place] heat during summer.

I'm also curious if they were able to use the casement as a heatsink in itself
But that’s not true. During the dotcom collapse there were proposals and programs to bail out dot-com speculators.

If you're exploring the relationship between sentience and soul to the extent that it relates to how we should treat such entities morally, here is my perspective.

We don't need AI to explore the limits of ethics and moral status; these liminal cases play out everyday already, but the common non-philosopher is blind to them. The case of how we should treat fetuses morally is perennial in US discourse, but one also considers high-functioning orang-utans and elephants; crows, octopuses, as well as mentally-slow humans, developmentally-challenged humans, severe autists, people with Alzheimer's, etc. Some of these entities are less neurologically divergent to the average public human than some others, but we still accord them more rights, and the threshold varies from person to person if you ask them to consider these liminal cases. I suppose my point is, we don't need to wait for an AGI to jolt us into contemplating the relationship of sentience to personhood and moral status, nor should one have high expectations of AGI advancements to make us contemplate it, since there are no lack of present-day examples already playing out around us.
Orthogonal: Anker has been working on a 1.2 kWh portable battery that you can charge directly from regular outlets, or solar panels, as an alternative to generators. It's a pretty cool little device[1], I've been thinking about getting one. I hope they go bigger.

This is great but I also wish that Toyota would start shipping a lot more EVs. They have been far behind the trend and made some poor bets on the future of technology. I fear that the poor renewable resources available to Japan, compared to most nations, has colored their judgement when it comes to the global market.

I would love an EV Sienna, for example. Really hate that moment of filling up with gas with my kids in the car, the cognitive dissonance of fucking over their future in such direct sight is painful.
It's hard to sue on behalf of the public rather than oneself; courts often punt by creating or invoking balancing tests that are fundamentally arbitrary. I'm not at all sure the policy does make sense; it's not well-supported by data, and it seems to me that the only people who benefit from constraining the average intelligence level of cops are corrupt administrators. After all, it's much easier to govern if you have assistants with a lot of leverage but little initiative.
That's a nice backup unit.

That's very Japanese, weatherproof and suitable for outside wall installation on a concrete wall. Tesla's Powerwall is intended for indoor installation. This is something to bolt on the wall alongside the outside part of the split air conditioner.

If I'm not mistaken base64 should not cause an integer overflow (i.e. it will always be a 128-bit integer) if you limit it to 22 characters (and append two = characters to pad it when you actually decode it).

It may not be as URL-safe as base58 though.
Degenerated into waffle. There’s no reason to believe that humans are more than some chemistry running on squishy meat. It seems like it would be physically possible to emulate that with silicon and software. There’s are no concrete definitions of sentience, thinking, so I guess you can shift the goal post whenever you want.
> I was told reading was my problem too...except I was only nearsighted in one eye.

I got glasses before kindergarten, and I needed them for longer than that.

Later on, I did end up spending a lot of time in childhood reading, but I was myopic before I could read.

‘Explanations’ like ‘you read too much’ have always struck me as obvious nonsense in my case.
Yaegi needs to be embedded in another golang program. It’s a golang module to evaluate golang. Which is cool, but different from what Umka seems to be.

Umka is a scripting language with syntax inspired by golang. A language with its own vm that you can embed anywhere, exsmple: https://github.com/vtereshkov/umka-lang/blob/master/examples....

Yaegi and Umka are two different things.

Edit: of course you can have a golang program that uses yaegi to execute your arbitrary script, and call into it this msin program from C. But how effective is it?

Show HN: Find and Sponsor the Right Event
Hi,

I'm working on EventReach, a platform that sends event creators sponsorship opportunities.

We've built a recommendation engine that uses data from some of the most popular event hosting platforms to look for trends and created a service that matches with small businesses.

Companies can create offers and buy personalized packages.

Event hosts have the ability to deny or accept level of work and we've made it easier to collect payment than before.

We're looking for BETA testers who can help us test to market !
Oh yep. I'll be reading an article and a damn popup appears midway through a sentence. I usually just quit the website at that point. I hope their bounce detectors pick up on it.
So, how can they know the crypto is getting liquidated into fiat currencies?
I misspoke a bit — I specifically was referring to a neutral wrist position when pressing (be it bench, overhead, pushes) w/r/t extension. I’ve seen excessive wrist extension in these movements cause repetitive strain injuries, in my case they lessened significantly when switching to a neutral wrist angle.

I’d imagine flexion also ain’t great to press with, but excessive extension seems to be way more common (and in common push up technique, the norm)

Yes more common.
The Alaskan wilderness first and foremost belongs to the people who have been living as part of it for generations. They are in a much better position to balance wilderness preservation v. the needs of human habitation than you or I. We are welcome to visit, but they are the ones calling it home - and have far more of a vested interest in preserving and stewarding it than we do.
To the degree the community allows it. If society as a whole decided on making things better, tons of things would change (including a mixed zoning and multi-family housing overhaul), but as it stands local cities and counties have vast power in managing themselves, and they have a vested interest in continuing to divert resources to their biggest income sources (single-family homeowners).
I'm starting to understand that one of my bedrock values is personal, bodily autonomy: adult individuals have the inalienable right to do what they want with their own bodies - even that which I disapprove - as long as in so doing they respects all rights of others.

Suicide, sex, drugs, weird body modifications, prostitution: inalienable. As with free speech, there are undoubtedly edge cases that should be prohibited, but in general I really think society would be better off not wasting resources legislating the morality of people's consensual choices; and rather focusing strictly on practical matters regarding them when and if necessary.

Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.
No not really, at least when I attended. I checked and 1st period is at 9am now, which is better. There was a cluster of suicides in my grade and the grades after, which might have led to the change. I left after 10th grade to finish high school at the community college down the road, which is a really excellent program offered to students who aren't "doing well" at the high schools. Honestly this option (Middle College) probably saves lives. The only hard constraint was a 12-2pm (iirc) class with the other high schoolers, and other than that we chose our own course schedule from the community college.
The wilderness area is under Federal protection. That means we all have a say, not just Alaskans.
You seem to be forgetting about an exchange. Tether themselves exchanged USDT for USD. As long as they were able to continue honoring redemptions Tether remains pegged to the dollar. If I were to decided to sell 1 USDT for $0.50 right now, that doesn't mean that Tether has depegged. Just looking at the trading prices off of random exchanges doesn't tell the whole story.
Google Inbox was amazing. I was a huge Gmail fan, I had all sorts of automatic rules, and labels, etc- then I tried Inbox. All of a sudden Gmail became an unmanageable mess compared to the simplicity of Inbox. But of course, Google killed inbox.
It was the exact thing I needed to get out of Google. I use my own domain email now and have switched between a couple different providers. Of course I still have my Gmail email- but it just forwards to my main email now. Other then for work, I’ve fully de-googled my personal usage of Google. All thanks to them showing me the glory of Inbox and then killing it. Thanks Google!
Unrelated, but years ago iOS used a new ML voice for Siri. It was quickly abused by people who found out how easy it was to make her say weird things [1]. Just by repeating the same character over and over again, she made weird sighs and other noises.

They would also need to seriously improve the runway to land in extreme wind conditions not just add ILS equipment. I don’t know what exactly is needed, but a single short gravel runway is a long way from being sufficient.

Next is the question of maintenance, if you actually want to save an hour the runway would need to be kept clear 24/7 which is expensive. Alternatively, they can start clearing the runway after the emergency which costs less money but more time. On the other hand a gravel road should be passable via off-road vehicle or snowmobile with minimal effort. Over say 30 years the road might be the clear winner.
