The hydrogen-is-the-enemy-of-EVs thing comes from the way that car manufacturers in the '90s pushed hydrogen as the "fuel of the future" in order to stall the CARB EV mandate from interfering with their ICE car sales. It was a cynical bait-and-switch where they simultaneously insisted that it was impossible to build acceptable BEVs (despite both the GM EV1 and the Rav4-EV being universally lauded) and extolled hydrogen fuel cell EVs as the Bright New Future that was "only 10 years away". This let them continue business as usual in exchange for the occasional puff piece on hydrogen.

If they hadn't been allowed to get away with it, we'd have had practical EVs by 2000 instead of having to wait another decade for Tesla.
This stuff isn’t that big of a deal in the overall scope. Not when compared to seeing how Google controls Android which has a longer history of others trying to get away from it. It didn’t work. Android is even more entrenched in most of the world sans China.

These sorts of arguments probably help cement Google’s power. By giving the guise that the open source part of the equation can be the key to usurping Google’s power. Instead of it mostly being the other way around.

It would not be surprising if Google loves these tiny changes from Chrome and Android. So the discussions and sentiment never get close to how bad it got for IE or other monopolies and dangers of power.
For me, the optimal length is 18-22 minutes. 20 minutes in average. Lower than that, I am annoyed because I have to click the "Next" button or whatever too many times.

Longer than that, I feel pressure. I feel that I have such a long video to watch! I keep planning to get that chunk out of my day, and keep postponing it. I know I am grown-up enough and should not be feeling this, but this is what happens.

This was personal.

But there are factual plus points in favor of smaller chunks:

1. The quizzes at the end of each chunk. The smaller the chunk is, the easier you feel to learn facts and other stuff, the more retention you have before you get the opportunity to face questions and cement a concept.

2. You can very quickly find it later. Rather than having to click through a 100 minute video, you can quickly read the titles of sections on a web-page.

3. When sections are short, the instructor remains focused and to-the-point as well. This is what I want from most instructors. Sure, I would love to hear Yann LeCun blabber about AI for 60 minutes unscripted, but I don't want that from a rando MSFT engineer teaching a tool.
If you eat only potatoes you will only ingest the nutrients found in potatoes so you will risk becoming deficient in all other nutrients, not found in potatoes. I don't know what those are, but for example you'd risk running out of all the stuff that vegans have to take supplements to replenish, like B12, iron, zinc, etc.

Anyway the diet described in the article doesn't make any assumption about calories. If you're taking enough calories to maintain your weight but losing weight, then it's very likely there's something else you're not getting enough of.

To play the other side a little, it's interesting to mention that the relative uniformity of some moral statements across time and cultures has also been deployed in support of moral anti-realist arguments, or at least evolutionary debunking arguments. I can't find the paper at the moment, but I don't think it's accurate to use the uniformity of some moral views as an argument against moral relativism, for the same reasons why you can't use the disparity of some moral views between cultures as an argument for moral relativism.

The fact that some number of people agree on some ethical standards, even almost everyone, does not do any work to prove their accuracy outside human opinion and experience, much in the same way almost all societies except those who believed in the Abrahamic God found others who did not to be (repugnant/heathens/blasthemers/barbarians/baby killers).

>Your comments appear to be saying that Chromium being open source makes the equation better. Like the comments defending this point about Brave and other wrapper browsers. So you’re not claiming open source is sufficient but you are seemingly defending it is a better situation.

Yes, that's exactly right. I think Chromium being open source changes the equation for the better compared to the IE situation. Whether it is sufficiently better to make it work, I'm not sure. I do see Google's outsized influence as a significant problem. I'm not denying that at all.

The fact that browsers like Brave have made changes that go against Google's interests is cause for some optimism though.

Qatar is a terrible place, but I'm not sure the math checks out in that article.

Google tells me that the population of Qatar is 2.881 million. If 90% of that is foreign workers, that's 2.593 million foreign workers.

The timespan for those 4000 deaths in your link is not given. I'd guess it is over several years since the construction projects for the World Cup are taking place over several years, but let's put them all in one year just to make sure we aren't giving Qatar the benefit of the doubt. I'm also going to assume that most of the workers are young but not children.

4000 deaths among 2.593 million people in a year is a death rate of 154 per 100k per year.

For comparison, the death rates in the US [1] for males ages 15-24 is 100 per 100k per year, and for ages 25-34 it is 177 per 100k per year.

Without more to go on, it looks like the 4000 deaths might just be about the normal number of deaths one would expect in a group that large.

The perils of buying at the end of a macro cycle. Real estate was overvalued due to zero interest rate policy, and their values must now fall (buyers buy a payment governed by wages/income and mortgage interest rates).

New home buyers will be fine as long as they intend to live in their home. If you’re in the market, wait 3-6 months (or longer, based on Fed meetings raising rates) if you can as values decline. Anyone selling right now is still trying to get out at the top, which has already passed.
> I think fitness is a bit of a unique market because, in my experience, people are more willing to spend money on it compared to other types of software.

It is one of 3 markets that are like that: health, dating/relationships, finances.

"Fitness" as a concept pertains to the "dating/relationships" market and is therefore linked to the strongest motivator ie. gettig laid. It is also linked to health and for some it helps with their professional performance. So yeah, "fitness" hits a sweet spot there.

But really, have a seriously useful app in either one these three and you can build a business around that.

Ask HN: How to uniform PDF paper sizes by Linux CLI
How, by what utility, can we uniform pdf paper size on Linux the simplest, preferably by CLI
The point is not that c++ can't do this (I also have code that does this dating back over 10 years), it's that despite having code to do string_view/string_piece, Chromium was still performing 25,000 allocations per keystroke in its Omnibox because c++ has other common ways to represent "constant string owned by someone else", and there are hidden performance issues that will trip up even experienced programmers when mixing these ways incorrectly.

Despite having better options available (either in the standard library or custom code), the less optimal ways still get used.

Rust had the benefit of learning from c++'s mistakes and separated the concepts of owned vs unowned strings in to separate types with explicit conversions required whenever an allocation would occur. This was baked in to the language from the beginning and so you don't get a mix of different types in signatures to convey the concept of pointing to a slice of a string owned by someone else, you just have &str.

Even if you get fancy with your interface and do things like AsRef<str>, there's still no concern about implicit or hidden allocations. Any time you need to own the memory (either for yourself or to pass in to another function) you need to do so explicitly and you end up with a different type (much to the chagrin and confusion of newcomers to the language).

C++ is trying to correct its mistakes also, but not everyone can use those latest features and even if they can, the mistakes still have to be left in for compatibility reasons.
Following that reasoning there should only be one app of each kind on the platform: an Apple app.

> It feels a bit similar to how Conway's Game of Life is a surprisingly deep rabbit hole with its own devoted niche community. I wonder how many of those types of math/programming niches exist.

I'm not a programmer, though I suspect that that community is similar, except perhaps with fewer rabbit holes now just because it's younger—but research-level mathematics is essentially nothing but one after another rabbit hole with a devoted niche community. There's no topic so specialized that you can't find a mathematician for whom it's their everyday concrete research lab, and no mathematician so specialized that you can't find a topic even in their discipline on which they'll look down as meaninglessly abstract and application-free.
Much of the complexity of contentEditable comes from using the same DOM nodes both as an output device to render a semantic data model, AND as an input device, to interpret input-related events into changes to the semantic data model. If you can separate the two concerns, it would be much easier to eg accept CJK text and keep output looking correct, without breaking input.
I sort of agree on Asia--we shamefully send a lot of our manufacturing over there to exploit their lack of labor or environmental protections, but I don't think the west exploits South American labor to a particularly high degree?

That's only because all the archaeologic evidence is preserved in bones and tools. All if not most of the plant based evidence has been reclaimed by nature. There are some new discoveries surrounding preserved pollens that are showing how early hominids had plants in their camps.

> We have such remarkable discoveries as a building made entirely of mammoth skulls.

That's because all the wooden based structures didn't survive. We should quit calling it the Stone Age and call it the Wood Age, because their stone tools were used to build wooden structures (along with butchering critters).

quoted "gastrointestinal specialist Kim Barrett, a professor of medicine at the University of California, San Diego"

> “To some extent, our ability to handle lactose is a use-it-or-lose-it phenomenon,” Barrett says. The body digests lactose — a disaccharide — by using lactase, an enzyme in the small intestine, to break it down into the monosaccharides glucose and galactose, which can then be absorbed. “If you don’t have the [lactose] substrate in the diet, you start to reduce the synthesis of the lactase enzyme to digest it,” Barrett explains. “After a period of completely excluding lactose from the diet, you may not have any of those digestive enzymes present.”

Maybe unawareness here is a gender thing? I have heard this story too many times from women doing weird short-term restriction diets (or going vegan and trying to undo) to feel like I need "current science" to "support" the very fact that it happens.
