This is pretty cool and it's probably healthy. I was homeschooled my whole life with super strict parents - mom was an Olympian, and my father owned a construction company. My brother and I had to be up by 5:30AM for chores and exercising as this was also my moms routine. We were doing school work by 8:00AM with a small break around 10:30AM, then lunch at noon.

After lunch, we went out to help my father build houses, then off to sports practices (typically two separate practices for two different sports) and classes at the local college. By the end of the day you're exhausted!

A large part of why my parents were so strict is because we were really poor and my parents were determined to not only get out of poverty but also to teach us a good work ethic.

So part of me is really biased in thinking "these kids have an easy schedule, why is it so hard for them to get going in the morning?"

I wouldn't recommend my upbringing necessarily, but also can't help but wonder if kids had a stricter routine, regularly exercise, good diet, and family support if it wouldn't be slightly easier for them to start the day early.

But also on the flip-side I think it's great to let them sleep in because I remember how I felt, and how my friends felt.

Lastly, perhaps public education is partially at fault? Sitting in a classroom for hours every day is exhausting, so how about a more hands-on method of learning where kids actually stand at a white board and write out problems and solutions - something that might work in the lecture part of chemistry, physics, math, and perhaps other courses?
- We did this in homeschool as well as at the local college I attended and it absolutely helped me wrap my head around things better!

I ultimately have no dog in the fight as my family and I do our own thing, this is just my opinion.
TBH I don't know why are there no small "consulting" companies structured like lawyer ones. I think the model makes a lot of sense.
You already have bush planes in places like Alaska. A cheaper/better bush plane has probable merit but, as you say, that's not most places.

>>"Intellectual Property" as a term covers more than monetization though. For example it covers Trade Marks which has more to do with ownership (ie a "brand") than with direct monetization. I don't sell my trademark.

Interesting example, but it is still all about monetization, even if slightly indirect. E.g., every franchise operation licenses it's trademark to it's operators - You and I can setup a hamburger restaurant, but we'd better not call it McDonald's or Wendy's without signing up to their franchise agreement and paying the fees.

I've worked in both software and now in mechanical engineering fields, and I'm also having a hard time seeing both how innovation is not merely creativity applied to one field and the arts are creativity applied to another. Whether I'm creating a new widget, or way to make the widget, or you are creating a new painting, song, or written work, we're both applying our training, knowledge, experience, and creativity to create something new.

Even more so, I don't see how making this distinction inhibits making reforms.

In both cases, we need to reform the system so that it is not merely a tool for corporations to implement restrictive rent-seeking regimes to extract profit and inhibit progress. Any further detail you can provide?
Seems to cut either way.
Don't forget to add Warren Buffett to that list.

I like the idea though I'm not sure how this will cope with spam. However just like with most open-source projects, branding appears to be an issue: a popular web-based client (https://github.com/fiatjaf/branle) is called "branle" which not only doesn't easily roll off the tongue but also means "to jerk off" in French.
study results seem to suggest about one in five to one in four people experiences long covid and further:

Shruti Mehta, an epidemiologist at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. “Looking at people who report they are not able to function in life, we’ve seen about 3 to 5 percent, which is still a large number.[..]My bottom line is, with a potential cost of $2.6 trillion, that’s so big that there’s nothing, no preventive action, that wouldn’t be worth doing to reduce the burden of long-Covid,” Cutler said.”

So I think one in ten being quite seriously affected is about in the right ballpark, if not too conservative.

That’s what it feels like, Germany is opening up its borders for Ukrainian refugees, but Greece wouldn’t for Syrian refugees who are a similar distance away to them.

When I say that’s what it feels like I want you to understand that every time I ask someone who is heavily in the favor of intervening in Europe here in the US, at its core it’s almost always “because these are people like us” argument. In America the whole argument for why we should intervene in Europe relies upon a hidden assumption, the moment you make it explicit, there is absolutely no way defendable (because nobody wants to be called racist and the non-racist position would be to advocate intervening all over the world, a quite unpopular opinion in the US these days).
You mean making them worse?
The two tales here are that the US resists going metric, and a tiny core of british people try to go back to Imperial. But, I do stress its really tiny, and it focusses on "traditional" weights and measures which are in human scale. It's been exploited by the little-englander Tories as a "take back control" story but they ignore the vast preponderance now of people, citizens, voters, who grew up post metric. They know what a pound or a pint "is" but they don't particularly need duodecimal back in their lives in shops, regulated measurement spaces. Its about colloquial terms. I weigh 12 stone. I am six feet tall. I drink a pint of milk a day. My mums recipe for scones uses a quarter pound of flour.

250g of cheese just doesn't roll off the tongue as easily as half-a-pound.

Really? if you want to buy half a pound of cheese, your cheese monger will cut you the correct amount, within the limits. If you NEED exactly half a pound of cheese for some unknown reason, either you have to ask them to cut 226 grams, or they have to do the sums. Or, if they still have scales capable of doing it, read from the alternate line.

I knew a weights-and-measures guy, whose day job consisted of going into bars, ordering a pint, and whipping out his warrant badge and volumetric measures. he got chased out of a lot of pubs but the punters really don't like short measure, the introduction of weigh-lines on glasses or definitions like brim-full makes a difference. So there is an aspect to ordinary mensuration which people care about: the town of Culross in Fife has the old "scots" yard stapled to the wall of the tron, but they acknowledge its a different yard to the one in the village up the road. Market traders had to certify.

American recipes which are in cups, can be a trial for other people, if they mix cups, oz and spoons. But then, recipes in spoons which don't stipulate full or rounded, can be a trial, and then you have volume dry or wet vs weight...

I'm sure the responses here will go to NASA and rocket science, I think the US could go metric, but won't. I wouldn't say its impossible, but I see little sign of the enthusiasm needed to make the transition in everyday life.

Perhaps small steps work? in 50 years you could go to dual-weight packaging, then change the size of the fonts for metric and imperial, and wind up with metric the one people use, and then deprecate imperial, but it would require inter-generational, intergovernmental alignment.

The kind of fall-off-a-cliff change Britain did in the 70s and Australia in the late 60s is unlikely in the US for a range of reasons. There is low willingness to incur this kind of pain in any space in the US polity. Insufficient upsides and a voter turn-off.
I've been through them all and find that no one solutions is complete. I follow the basic principals of GTD focusing on safe places to collect tasks (inboxes), regular review of all inboxes to organize inputs. Important note: If you can do it in 2 minutes do so. If it has more than one step, spend time writing the all the steps you can think of to get a clear idea of what you need to do.

InBoxes:
OneNote for easy input from every tech.
Field Notes for hand writing which can't be beat.
OneDrive for anything files I need to review.
Blank paper at my desk while I work.

Then, for project execution, I follow more of a Cal Newport approach of Time Box Planning and unplugging to perform deep work. Hope this helps.

Open your Keychain and clear the "_AppleWi-FiInternetTetheringSSID_" key as well as any keys that match your iPhone's Wi-Fi network name then try again to connect using the "Instant Hotspot" feature (aka find your iPhone in the top of your Wi-Fi menu on Mac - it should be displayed separately from other networks).

Apple tries to "improve" the personal hotspot experience and doesn't treat it like a normal Wi-Fi network - when that fails it fails completely instead of merely falling back to asking you for the network key.
Same. I’d love to talk with someone like him. I can’t imagine a world where a nuclear engineer could even become president. Reality star makes sense to me more as a person who could actually become a president.

President is a tough job and I don’t think I even know what a good one looks like. In my lifetime they’ve all disappointed me in some significant way or another.
The thread that runs through this is loyalty to an organization and the assumption that it will be reciprocated.

But reality is that there are all sorts of conflicting interests, and no principle can tell you how to resolve them in all cases.

You can do all sorts of things that hurt individuals in pursuit of the organizational goals because you think it serves a higher purpose, but the organization can be corrupted.

As a non-manager, I try to always remember that my manager's job is to mediate conflicts of interest, and if they are defending the organization's interest, I won't take it personally. But, since I am not a manager, I pursue my own interest, or try to help individuals that I like.

There are few organizations with a hold over their managers/executives so strong that human emotion cannot ever sway them. If that is the case, then how do things get back on track if the whole organization goes astray?

Faith in whatever the mission is supposed to be, cannot be taken as a given.

> crosswind limits for takeoff and landing

Most aircraft have a “maximum demonstrated crosswind capability” which is a required test flight item but is not a limitation. It has to be demonstrated during flight testing to a figure of not less than 20% of Vso, but once that’s hit, they don’t have to find a greater crosswind to determine an actual limit.
Good, this is a horrible implementation of what could be a worthwhile thing.

This sounds good for simplicity when AC power is almost always available - it would be interesting to see what the best solution is for each use case. The time synchronization from AC can drift by a second or more over one day, but it is controlled very well over longer time periods. So if you’re switching back and forth between it and quartz, especially at regular intervals error could somehow accumulate.

An interesting thing is emergency power supplies don’t always precisely control this, so after a disaster sometimes all AC connected clocks in an area drift by the same number of minutes.

NTP or radio synchronization is probably better in many cases since those are absolute rather than relative references. And GPS should normally be the best although there are cases where 1, 2 or all 3 of those might be unavailable.

Maybe physical reality isn't the base layer. Maybe it's consciousness. I'm not sure I would go that far, but there are a number of phenomenon that are difficult to explain through materialism (physical reality is all there is). I was particularly moved by Bernardo Kastrup. Here he is on simulation:

> This, however, is premised on the notion that a simulation of a mental phenomenon is equivalent, in essence, to the phenomenon itself. There are many compelling arguments against this notion in philosophy of mind, the most well known of which is perhaps John Searle’s (2004). To gain some intuition about what these arguments generally entail, consider this: Do we have any reason to believe that, by performing a perfectly accurate simulation of kidney function in a computer, the computer will begin urinating on its desk? Clearly not. There is an essential difference between a computer simulation and the phenomenon it simulates; they are not the same thing, no matter how accurate the simulation. Yet, those hoping to “upload consciousness” under the physicalist narrative seem to become so engrossed in abstraction that they lose touch with basic intuitions of plausibility. Their neurosis is, in this sense, comparable with religious dogmatism.

People misgender them, or complain about their pronouns, and complain that they use Twitter instead of a weblog (which they do because they have ADHD and Twitter is the only platform they have the focus for.) And then eventually people get mad at them at having the temerity to complain at all.
Singapore aside, they all did it under authoritarian governance with massive US/western support at peak of US hegemony as essential vassals. They played great on easy mode. VS PRC which was sanctioned/contained by west, India less so but never the less got fucked with but held back by messy democracy that can't put together an industrial policy. And great is relative, high gdp / standard of living is great for citizens, and ultimately that matters a lot. But a country in terms of comprehensive power can be "great" via modest income and sheer scale, i.e. PRC who developed indigenous military, space, nuclear program (all while sanctioned) and essentially every industrial sector has much more comprehensive power than a Asian Tiger that's dependent on US protection and got US credit card for basically playing part in coldwar PRC containment. PRC generally industrialized faster than any of these countries after detente, through much more sectors, but simply have too many people to ever reach parity per capita income. PRC is doing well on hard mode. Not to mention US aligned authoritarian petro states like Qatar, UAE, somewhat Brunai also do much better than the Asian Tigers. At end of day, being small/medium size country under US patronage get rich. Being authoritarian helps, being a resource based economy helps more. But geopolitically, "greatness" extends to more domains than just standard of living. Otherwise, UAE is greater than US. Except they're obviously not.
The Lilium plane has 12 sets of 3 electric motors. Each pair of sets is powered by its own battery pack, and each set is individually actuateable. So it basically has 12 control surfaces. Separate aerodynamic controls aren't needed.

Writing control software that can handle arbitrary failures isn't easy, but there is plenty of redundancy with the three separate flight computers.

I don't know what a pointing noise is.

> Light also encodes the direction to an objects past location, even though light is always moving faster than the object.

Yet the light is never outrun by the object, much like the subsonic plane never outruns its noise. However, here, the (fast) noise arrives after the (slow) plane. In your analogy, that would correspond to the (slow) object arriving before the (fast) light.

1. Every time someone posts one of Foone's threads to HN, a Twitter bot that just reposts HN links will link to the thread, which notifies them, which is annoying. They always block all of them, but there always seems to be a new one. They've speculated that there's a "how to build an HN repost Twitter bot" tutorial out there that they're all copied from, and that's why there's so many identical bots.

2. People keep complaining that they write Twitter threads instead of blog posts, and they're tired of it.
Ask HN: Does Apple secretly want to prevent gaming on macOS?
I can't believe this, but compared to Linux, macOS actually provides worse gaming experience (at least for me). On Linux you have Proton to help with Windows games, but it cannot run natively on macOS due to macOS missing several APIs:

- eventfd syscall is Linux-specific, without good alternative on macOS

- Apple does not support Vulkan, which is needed for DXVK

- Apple deprecated OpenGL support, which is needed for WineD3D

- macOS is missing support for Python 3 OOTB

- etc.

It just looks as if they _want_ to avoid success at all costs. Is there any reason that a megacorp would make such decisions?

Not sure your conclusion follows from your premise. Is it not possible that a being could be sentient, and yet answer questions "incorrectly in a way that shows lack of self awareness"?

Is being delusional incompatible with being sentient?
fair question. i've updated the readme.

this is a project scaffold. it's the template from which i start all new services.

clone the repo. change the name. deploy. start the dev loop. now you've got:

- a fast, fun dev loop for frontend, backend, and admin

- basic auth

- implement async functions in cmd/

- runtime up to 15 minutes

- streaming logs back to the caller

- all execution state in s3

- caller can pass presigned s3 put urls to store state upstream

- invoke async functions:

- via cli locally

- via cli remotely (rpc or subprocess)

- via api remotely (rpc or subprocess)

- via web interface, debug and manage your service from any browser, even mobile!

- invoke bash inside the lambda:

- not often needed, but nice to have

- wondering how long it takes to gzip a file in lambda? bash oneliner

- wondering what the lambda username is? whoami

- implement sync functions as normal /api/ endpoints in backend/

- devops automation

- ./bin/relay.sh # backend dev loop via ec2 for faster lambda zip updates

- ./bin/ensure.sh # deploy aws infra

- ./bin/preview.sh # preview aws infra deployment

- ./bin/logs.sh # low latency backend logs from s3

- ./bin/dev.sh # frontend and backend dev loop

- ./bin/delete.sh # delete backend infra

- ./bin/check.sh # lint frontend and backend

- ./bin/cli.sh # rebuild and invoke cli locally
