We could live forever given the technology. Is mortality legal fiction?
You can just use the common mnemonics [1], although I reckon the leap-year form is annoyingly long and complicated - much better to rely on the shorter version, like we do in Italy, and think a bit more on even years.

Worst case, you could have a "three-day-long" magnet to cover the last few items as necessary.

Add secondary sliders on the primary slider to indicate current date/month/days in month then I can rest in peace. Oh wait, then it would be less elegant
Yes but not because armies rampaged over Egypt over and over again. Rome was just another state taxing the farmers.
It's suspicious no such models exists. Is there an implicit (self-)censoring on using religious texts?

If the max is 31C wet-bulb temperature, how did India survive the weeks of temperatures around 50C this summer?
Needs comparators though, not only resistors. It's not easy to make them super fast.
This is the way I remember it in Tokyo: stand on the side, unless it's super busy. Then you jam-pack as many people as humanly possible.

Cites 32 °C wet bulb as the peak measured in Delhi so far.
At +3 or +4 degrees celsius, expect people to die in India, Amazonia, Nigeria, parts of Pacific Islands.

There will be a lot of climatic migrants, I guess many more than the ones caused by the Syrian civil war or the invasion of Ukraine. Just imagine people fleeing the heat.

I live in the south of france, and I already want to move out to a colder place. Summers are too long.

Maybe there is a taboo about heat, because heatwaves are just not bearable, at least for me.

There are numerous cases of individual psychosis associated with much lower population densities as well.

Wisconsin Death Trip is one reasonably well-known collection of such instances:

I'd be interested in knowing what the basis of your statement is, and how you're considering reporting / observation biases.

(Note that I'm actually concerned with overpopulation and various psychological / sociological impacts of same. I'm simply highlighting that psychosis and antisocial behaviour is not exclusive to this particular population pattern.)
My comments were in regards to Australian Law.

I think this[0] piece sums up the situation nicely.

There are some very quirky laws here in Australia like "goods in custody" in the state of NSW. Essentially you can be convicted for having items in your possession that the courts "reasonable suspect" were stolen.

There are other things too like Firearm Prohibition Orders (FPOs) which once granted give the police the right to stop and search you even if they don't believe you have committed or witnessed a crime.

Honestly, this is where design really falls flat.

It looks nice, the idea is appealing, but the result is awful. This thing is totally unusable. You need to remember to slide the frame every month. It doesn't even tell you that you did or not. Sliding the frame requires checking the number of days there are in the month. When you're in the last week, having the 31 always there is a pain in the ass. Knowing the next month is kind of useful.
Gotta 2x this comment: hire a trainer. It’s changed my life. You are accountable to someone who is invested in seeing you make progress and get better.

Because I work out three times a week my life is better on multiple fronts, including my concentration and coding.

Two years on I’m down 27 pounds and can do push-ups. I have never been able to do push-ups.
Yeah, you should look into Arabic Numerals, the Hindu Nationalists took over the page and now writes as originating from India, which it doesn't and doesn't really originate from a single country at all, it comes from the silk road. But anyways, they use "sources" which result in he said she said arguments, and at one time just completely lists an old elementary mathematics book as their source. The level of inaccuracy in many wikipedia articles is frighteningly high especially maintained by "offical" channels.

You should read sources on how the jewish americans helped black americans. The sources flat out state that During the period Jewish American's did nothing to help black americans during the segregation and at times actively encouraged it.
I had a physical version of this a couple of decades ago as a kid. I can find similar products searching for "perpetual calendar". The one I had included a slider to select the month. It also had the day of the week at the top and a small circular peg to place over each day.

It's probably because human fuel is in the most part obtained by solar power sequestrating carbon from the atmosphere.

you are right it s the worst example. Imagine if the british, french, spanish, portuguese went on genocides in order to keep their colonies, and we justified that 100 years later because "it's what they did at the time". The whole point of the nationalist movement was emancipation and the creation of new countries for former empire populations.
I don't think this addresses my main points.

Uniswap is only between cryptocurrencies. As I said earlier, those cryptocurrencies are either other stablecoins, or non-stablecoins. If it's backed by stablecoins, then it's centralized. If it's backed by non-stablecoins, then it's non-stable.

Chainlink is, from what I understand, a truthcoin-like system where oracles put down collateral. It is fundamentally a broken system because whatever group with the majority of the collateral just wins. What is stopping a government that can censor users and restrict trading from forcing oracles to collude and report false information?

My mother has a pen with this feature (printed eternal calendar inside a rotatable sleeve) in the 1960s. It lasted many years. Good to know someone has finally invented it.
It’s likely going to make your roof much heavier though, being made of glass. And that’s usually a bad thing.

So unless they find a different lighter material with which they can create the same kind of lens, it probably won’t be suitable for many kinds of roofs.

Did you intentionally copy Google Keep design?
Whilst randomly browsing on this site, I came across a piece of my own work! I made the chess piece pictured on the "kingwood" page.

I _think_ that's the first time I've ever completely randomly stumbled upon myself online, i.e. with no intention whatsoever of actually looking up something I'd done. Nice little boost to start the day with :-)
In terms of total kWh per year cheap panels win. In terms of the value per year morning and evening power is becoming increasingly valuable due to the duck curve. Tracking solar panels still aren’t viable, but large instillations will sometimes aim a percentage of panels to the east or west to shift power at the cost of total kWh per year maximize value produced.

So, 20% more cost for 10% more power could be worth it even outside of space constrained applications.
Learned from this that Ferrets are a domesticated species (like dogs and cats). I'd only heard of them in the context of Monty Python and affinity for trouser legs and assumed they were a wild animal.

Also, they're _big_ : we have a kind of Weasel (Ermine) in Montana and I've seen then drag an adult rabbit carcas over long distances. Ferrets look to be around twice their size.
A lot of people die in India during harsh summers due to heatwaves and sunstroke. This would only increase the victims. I asked my dad how they used to manage without Air Conditioning during summers and he said that he doesn't remember summers to be this hot. This proves that Either Climate change is real or my dad just got accustomed to the Air Conditioning through the years.
You're definitely not alone. I've contemplated a vacation home in some colder climate or getting a basement just to deal with the summers. You can definitely survive most of Europe, but barely functioning for several days to months just isn't fun.
Behind the Celsius Sales Pitch Was a Crypto Firm Built on Risk
Because humans, trees, living things in general are carbon neutral over a pretty short duration.

The overwhelming concern is carbon that was newly put into the atmosphere from fossil fuel sources comprising millions of years' worth being released all at once (less than 200 years). Carbon that was recently removed from the atmosphere by plants which were subsequently consumed and reintroduced into the atmosphere is a very minor concern.

It's not that your perspective is wrong, just that it is dwarfed by many orders of magnitude, in respect to fossil fuels.

Yes, this is true.

But it is no help on RPM-family distros, or Arch-family ones, or Alpine or Void or whatever.

No, mostly, it won't. Because the file won't be added to the OS's list of repositories and it will never get updated.

I don't like the bland faces from the special edition, especially the close-ups which are almost 'chibi' style and feel out of place.

Crypto hedge fund Three Arrows Capital plunges into liquidation
The standard unit for purchasing lumber in the United States is a board-foot which is 1"x12"x12" or 1/12th of a cubic foot. Cubic feet is used because "board-foot" is too industry specific but it's still easy enough to convert when you need to calculate the weight of your woodworking/construction.

Physicists confront the neutron lifetime puzzle
As with lots of other age-related phenomena I thought would never happen to me, at 52 I am starting to really feel the effects of moderately hot weather that I would've shrugged off a few years ago. Tried going out for a lunchtime jog on an overcast day with a high of 30C (86F) and had to stop after 30 min. It wasn't the opening scene from Ministry for the Future or anything, but I got a new respect for the recent headlines about 50C+ temps in various parts of the world. Not looking forward to that eventuality.
Yeah. While probably the way it's calculated makes sense to reflect how warm or cold a day is, it's making headlines because obviously it's shocking "everyone" when you've to read that more than 30C is unbearable ...
... and because of this, mankind has developed an interesting game called "war"...
Essentially agree.

Gorilla Glass: the unsung hero of the smartphone
I specifically bought hardware for OpenBSD, I like the OS a lot but it is not my daily driver. I reported something incorrect on their website and was responded to very quickly with oh, you spotted that too soon that's correct on the next release, that was really good in my view (what I was doing was fairly niche, it was maybe 1-2 days before what I noticed was no longer relevant.).

I also have FreeBSD on a RPi3b, just to have it around. FreeBSD has tells that there a many fundamental things that should have been corrected years ago, tip of the iceberg. I reported a bug (258863) and provided a workaround, there was momentary interest then it was forgotten. Their forums are incredibly insular, cult like in that whatever the foundation or developers decide we side with 100% (no one overtly says as much though).

For most things I use "Linux" (Debian&Ubuntu mostly), 20+ years now. Change for the sake of change is modus operandi for the "Linux" world for some time, then that's perpetuated as it tends to attract developers that enjoy that. systemd is awful.

Wayland. I just lack interest in it. I'm not pro X either just can't be arsed.

Most people things it's a competition between various Linux Distros or BSD Flavours, I'm quite happy to use them for what they are.
> This actually increased overall throughout and per-person speed:

Increasing the average per person speed sounds like the expected result. Not necessarily a net win if the people sufficiently motivated to exit quickly to walk (who tend to bypass queues) are slowed though.
At the very least v4 has a paper attached to it. The authors of v5 have claimed that they'll release a paper at some point, but it has never materialized. It doesn't seem like v6 even makes that promise.
We can't fly by flapping wings like birds but we can certainly glide like raptor birds by para- or hand-gliding
Some birds and several pterosaurs got to human masses and more. Staying in the air is not much of a problem, but launching is. Pterosaurs have a massive advantage here in that they launched with all four limbs, meaning they could use their flight muscles to launch. Birds can't do this and have to rely on their legs (which are useless in the air).
Its interesting how different tastes people can have. I, for one, couldnt stand Foundation for more than three episodes. Severance, on the other hand, is like a one, series-long, good Black Mirror episode.
Dave! Great to see you here again. I was the other guy - and I'm so happy we collaborated back in the solvers.io days.

I'll just add that meteor served our needs very well back then, and handled being (top I think for a while?) on hn with no problems.
The "right thing" is submitting a patch to popular distros to have your package included in the repos.

Why the World's Tallest Trees Are Dying
I'd say it is mostly about expectations. There are various kinds of challenges in life. If you approach them with an unrealistic mindset you get disappointed.

Some things are easy and you just do it. Then there are the more challenging topics. These can't be overseen from the start, so you just start working on it and hope you reach what you desire in the future. Finally some things are just impossible.

Both at work and in personal life it can help a lot to see this distinction.
We're talking about data from a blog, though. It's not like it's going to scale to have terabytes of entries anytime soon.
Strong agree. I started with programs like Starting Strength but I regret not working with a trainer earlier. There were so many technical mistakes I made that I never noticed myself. Worst case I would've hurt myself in the future, best case my progress would have stalled due to bad technique. There is only so much you can learn from YouTube videos because you need to know what you're looking for. Nothing wrong with these programs, but having someone experienced correct your technique is invaluable. That's perhaps less the case for simpler lifts like bench press, but I can't imagine someone learning to properly clean, snatch or jerk all by themselves.

If you can't afford to hire a trainer, start with going to a weightlifting group class to learn technique. Even Crossfit is good for that (just don't learn your pull-ups there :)). At least you will have someone correcting you. Once you're confident in your technique you can quite and start following your own program.
I just watched the video and am a little confused about the laser illumination.

Does the laser have to be "aimed" at each object of interest or is it just laser illumination of the whole scene?

The graphics suggest there's a laser point on each object, but that means it has to be aimed and thus follow the subject, right?

Moreover many objects, like guitars, have complex oscillation modes so if you are "listening" to just "one point" on the surface, you're not picking up the sound from the other parts of the guitar which are oscillating differently.
Mercury has a different architecture. The Voila keeps the live kernel and connection to UI (using Tornado framework). To use Voila you need to add widgets (with ipywidgets) to the notebook (mix UI code with analytics code).
The Mercury generates UI based on the YAML header (very simple, no need to mix UI with analytics code). When user tweaks widgets values, the whole notebook is executed with new parameters and converted with nbconvert (using Django + Celery). Mercury can serve multiple notebooks to multiple users on one server. It has option to export notebook to PDF or HTML. You can schedule the notebook execution with crontab string (for example `schedule: '30 8 * * 1-5'`) and add email notifications. You can easily add authentication to notebooks. It was designed to make notebook sharing fast and easy.

What is more, I'm thinking about including Voila into Mercury. So you will be able to serve Voila apps with Mercury. The end-goal is to make notebooks sharing easy.
Same, but thanks for that link! When I saw "pen and paper," I thought "visual" for some reason I now can't easily defend.
I stopped using Thunderbird with version 3 when all the new database indexing features made it very slow and unusable.

This could also be related to variance in ozone concentration which varies over time and is typically higher on hot days.
I would find the Getty image of “people collaborating” hell on earth when trying to code. I’d end up offending people with my language and demeanour, trying to get them to take their noise somewhere else. If, however, this was supposed to be technical collaboration, where’s the whiteboard and conference table?

People have forgotten or discarded all sorts of polite constructs over the last decade (often called political correctness and discarded gleefully). Not a surprise that this grates on people in a bullpen. And you’d think that companies would move away from shitty offices if they want people in them.

I don't see it. Literally billions of people live in tropical countries and somehow seem to manage fine. I myself live in a country that's almost entirely below the tropic of Cancer and while summer heat gets uncomfortable, it's far from unbearable. Let's put a brake on the hyperbole, at least so far, in the absence of concrete evidence of temperatures truly becoming unbearable for billions of people. If millions of migrants from tropical underdeveloped regions of the world are fleeing to the northern world, for now at least it's definitely not because of climate problems. Political troubles of all sorts are a much more immediately pressing issue.
It would work so much better if the frame had weekdays.

Are there any such studies that have investigated, how heat influences the overall human productivity?

Obviously, physical work becomes harder and correspondingly less productive during heat. But I also notice a considerable degradation of mental work. Personally, I notice the first symptoms at around 25 degrees. From there on my overall mental performance decreases with every degree.

I have never quantified this. So this is pure anecdotal evidence. But I am pretty sure, that more heat correlates with less overall performance and thus leads to a reduction of the GDP.
I don't think the OP was suggesting exposing all those low-level details in the UI. Surely the software would do all of that for you?
The switch that I really regretted was the move from "open play" to "good vs bad".

When I was a kid I had a ton of castle sets. They were pretty much "neutral". Various factions doing their thing, some a bit more shady sure, but you could set up whichever story and alliance you wanted. In early 2000 it turned into humans vs ugly trolls. I felt like so much was taken away from kids by doing that.
well, their costs are based on weight = declared, the insurance value is based on lost value = declared. Pellets are not a fire hazard, neither is your furniture/books. I would not send solvents or lithium batteries - just who is being defrauded, you only recover what you lost as stated in case of loss? My stuff is not high value - if I had $1 million of furniture - would I try and save $$ this way?
looks at weather report for southern france for this week

That’s a very mild summer, I’m located in Southern California where my nights are warmer than your peak day temperatures. During daytime it can be over 45 degrees Celsius. But ACs are everywhere so it makes it livable. I’m guessing most homes in Europe don’t have that.
