Thankfully, this no longer appears to be the case for Rust, thanks to mrustc [0], a compiler that can build a working Rust 1.54.0 toolchain (released 2021-06-29) from source. It requires only a C++14-compatible compiler and some other common tools; I've just verified that its build script works with no problems on my Ubuntu machine. To be safe, you'd want to specify exact dependency versions for everything (or better yet, vendor them locally), since the big crates all have different policies for when they break backward compatibility with older compiler versions.

Environmental stressors can often be beneficial for organisms, including communities. Look at Singapore, Israel, or Ukraine, for example. Existential problems can help communities focus and cooperate. Nothing cuts through political punditry, rhetoric, and arm-chair policy opinions like bone fide emergencies.

Of course, a prerequisite is that the community and its institutions must be sufficiently functional. But I don't think California is so dysfunctional yet that it's doomed to economic and social regression. I think it's too early to say much of anything other than that California is barreling toward interesting times.
Is the bridge not in use? If it is in use, seems ridiculous to remove access, even temporarily, to a public resource, just because one rich guy is bad at planning and/or extremely arrogant.
Pro plan is $19/month (https://www.netlify.com/pricing/). As a business we have 5 static websites with them. It's reasonable and we will upgrade without looking around. The feature that brought us to Netlify was being able to set additional HTTP headers (via a configuration file). We don't use or need any of the other pro features (extra build minutes, more bandwidth). To us it was clear the free plan we used wouldn't last.

That's true. I use MIT myself (although I don't care if people cite me).

I guess this just all seems rather activist to me but people aren't seeing the big picture; our jobs as programmers are about to change in a very big way. It won't be long before more competition enters the space (e.g. Salesforce and Amazon) and ultimately it won't matter if this model saw some GPL/MIT code because the next one will work twice as well without having seen any of it.

Government welfare funding, whatever. I’m only trying to illustrate that a billionaire throwing vast amounts of money at a nominally evil thing they want, can easily be offset by society redirecting that money to something “good”.

It’s better to work with the billionaire and harvest their billions for good, than to say “no, you cannot do this thing, ever, for any compensation”
The vast majority of games don't work the way you're talking about. I think the only ones that do are fighting games where latency is crucial.

It's much more complicated to only share input because to avoid desync the game engine has to be able to either rollback the state to accept inputs from other players sent over a slow connection, or alternatively just pause the game until it receives the next tick's inputs.

Democrats have been gerrymandering for decades [0] [1] [2]. It's only when Republicans started doing the same did it suddenly become an issue of great ethical concern to many Democrats. I recall with vivid clarity the now disgraced ex-con [3] and former Speaker of the N.C House, Jim Black declared that he didn't see anything wrong with injecting politics into drawing districts. Don't fall for their phony outrage and moralizing.

> Congress is supposed to pass laws regarding those sorts of things

You honestly think it's a good system to have congress be the ones legislating on every new way companies come up with to pollute?

> let it run wild.

We have very different definitions of "running wild".

All of this assume a functional congress which we absolutely don't have. I'm working with the cards dealt, you want to imagine some pie-in-the-sky idea of how congress should function. I agree it should function better but I don't see how letting companies pollute more is somehow a "win" and it certainly won't motivate the people in congress who don't even believe in climate change. All of this thinking seems to completely ignore that we need 60 senators to pass any legislation (due to the filibuster), a chamber of congress that is in no way representative of the people.

Please don't use "crusade" as a negative. The crusades were difficult fights for liberation of various European countries against Muslim colonialism, which had already stolen much of their land and enslaved their people [1,2]. Using them as a negative synonym is very offensive and problematic.

Sure but how many people need to worry about their life savings being seized? Out of 300 million in the US for example? Maybe just criminals? Also I don't think civilization falling is really much to worry about. It would take years for civilization to fall, and if it does we can just buy gold or something with a real tangible value. Or maybe we can move to a crypto after it falls, which is something we can do after the fact. And TBH there's no reason why any specific coin used today would be used in that situation either. In that event we can just create a new Blockchain to avoid the ponzi effect.
Is that data actually tracked and available publicly?
In principle this happens every day in the West, at least partially. It is most noticeable in US because here the political landscape is very polarized.

There are two important differences though.

The main difference in this case is that there is no monopoly and complete central control, like Russian leadership has over Russian mass media.

Second difference is that Western media does not have direct influence over other populations, if it decides to weaponize its mass media, it can only direct it against the people in their own country. Everywhere else it will be filtered by local publishers.

Russia has (or now in many instances, had) also media control over large Russian population in neighboring countries (like was in this example).

Asymmetry in freedom of press and freedom of speech works strongly in favor of malicious actors with strong control over media and speech.

I agree and its frustrating to see this crowd continually push the point that congress needs to grant explicit powers to the EPA when they already know that every single Republican politician is against moving the needle on climate change. This case was filed by 19 Republican lead states which constitute 44% of emissions in the US and is a multiyear effort by conservative climate change deniers[1] Any significant law will simply not pass the senate because the only thing senate Republicans are apparently good at is blocking progress. So this double play on the part of right leaning commentators is really in bad faith.

The word "black" is a thousand times more important to speech than the two syllables that make the word "niggardly" problematic.

White and black, light and darkness, yang and yin, on and off, one and zero. I'll bet that most people that have ever lived understand those parallels. Human melanin concentrations in skin don't enter into it. Attempting to control usage of a word as fundamental and common as "black" is an absurd overreach. It's nothing like "niggardly", which was barely in use anyway and brings to mind the same slur in the minds of just about any American alive today.
Will it reduce the water available? I'm not sure either way. I've been imagining it like you're sucking the evaporated water out of the top of a half-full glass of covered water. The evaporated water is in equilibrium with the liquid water, and if you suck out evaporated water, then more liquid water evaporates. But that's just my dumb mental model.

> But I'm stating that each state has an equal say in the decision (in the Senate) precisely because it impacts states approximatepy equally

I do not agree that impacts states equally nor do I buy into the premise that states should have an equal say. We aren't seeing the tyranny of the majority, we are seeing the tyranny of the minority between the filibuster and the senate not being representative of the people.
I've never had my id "swiped" in Europe. I'm sorry but your US experience has no relevance to the topic.

> "Today just 0.2% of all ships are U.S.-flagged. Many ships now fly under the flags of Panama, Liberia and the Marshall Islands — countries that allow ocean carriers to bypass a slew of safety regulations, labor laws and taxes. "

> The US has basically regulated itself out of the shipping business. Think about that for a second and then wonder if the issue is really greed. The US regulations has made it insanely more expensive to have a US flagged ship.

> How do we compete in a global market when the regulatory atmosphere is so lopsided?

IMHO: pass a law that prevents ships that aren't required to follow reasonable standards for "safety regulations, labor law" from unloading cargo at US ports. That'll reduce the perverse incentives for these flags-of-convenience pretty quick.
(cribbing an argument from the dissent)

The statute as a whole clearly delineates between when it means to limit authority to technological systems of control. Elsewhere in different provisions, Congress declined to give the EPA broad authority as it does in 111, using phrasing like

"reflect the greatest degree of emission reduction achievable through the application of technology."

"best available retrofit technology"

"best available control technology"

"maximum achievable control technology"

Congress clearly was conscious of the difference between technological systems and more general ones, and it declined to limit the EPA's authority here to technological systems.

I agree - network effects predate the internet after all. As long as good universities keep producing talented graduates it will be hard to undermine their reputation. And I don't think ambitious people being driven towards certain universities for clout is a negative. I say this as someone who went to an increasingly recognized yet still underdog state school. Maybe instead of discarding MIT's reputation a nudge in the direction of increasing editorial oversight can suffice. Though sensationalism seems to be a prerequisite for visibility these days
Ask HN: Who Is Jamstack Aimed At?
I've recently taken on my first project that's fully "Jamstack" [1] and I'm finding it very hard to understand who exactly these statically generated sites builders are aimed at?

The project is using Gatsby Cloud and Contentful. The key problems they have encountered are a) build times being painfully slow (+5 minutes per content change) and therefore b) the authoring/publishing experience is really poor as you can't easily see previews. These seem to be common complaints of static site generators (I'm also skipping over the general complexity required to get a website up and running with so many moving parts)

In order to tackle this problem, Gatsby offers a rendering feature called "DSG" (Deferred Static Generation) [2]. When enabled, instead of building all of your content up-front (the entire point of a statically generated site), only your core pages are generated at build-time. The rest of your "long tail" pages are only generated when someone first access them. To use this feature, you need to put a server in-front of your static site.

What?! It seems that the build times with statically generated sites have gotten so bad that the work-around is to literally go full-circle and re-create a dynamic website. The two big benefits of statically generated sites are apparently performance and server-less infrastructure, yet to deal with the downsides of generating pages up-front you need to introduce ... dynamically generated pages ... via a server.

I don't understand who this is for? Any company that requires the touted performance gains that statically generated sites offer will surely also need quick builds and a good authoring experience? But to get those build times down you have to re-introduce infrastructure and dynamically generated pages?

Are there teams out there that are happy with their statically generated sites? Am I going mad?

Short term is all that'd be needed. The US economy turned into a war economy would have no problem churning cargo ships if needed.

QEMU TCG is not that difficult to understand, and has quite comprehensive support for RV64 already, so you could add a new instruction there. As for compiler/kernel support, that's probably a lot more difficult, but it's hard to say what would be involved (eg. deep changes, or simple __asm__ statements) without knowing what kind of feature you'd be trying to add.

Why would anyone conclude this? There are things in this world that are fine, and things that are not. To conclude that acknowledging the things that are fine is equivalent to concluding that everything is fine just doesn't track.

Are you arguing that the only acceptable way to live life is to remain focused on everything that is going wrong, at all times?

If we do not examine what's going right, how are we to identify (and prioritize) the areas that require attention? How does one learn from the things that have been successful so as to apply that success elsewhere?

But more glaringly, how does one achieve any level of satisfaction in life if all they do is ignore everything good? The mental health impact of such negative focus seems far more likely to immobilize someone and lead to a nihilistic/fatalistic outlook. If the future generation is fucked, and there's literally nothing we can do, why do anything? (this is not what I'm advocating for, btw).

I'm not attempting to downplay the seriousness of climate change or the magnitude of the problems the world is currently facing, but if the only way forward is to stay mired in negativity and to ignore the good things in life, truly what is the point of living?
