>We could write a code / text editor that wouldn’t have to be worried about extensions like Git: the Git support would come as a native application (equivalent of the CLI git application) that would open an overlay, for instance. That application wouldn’t even know about the code editor: you would make that connection via the platform.
>Applications could communicate between each other to manipulate buffers, get the contents of the buffer and do various kind of operations on them (LSP servers, for instance).
>Because the protocol would be completely rendering-agnostic, that would allow people to write an application that would work for any kind of “platform implementations.”
Composition would use the low-level protocol to compose applications. You could imagine supporting an interface between applications allowing to filter the contents of the buffer of one by using another application. Applications such as fzf could branch on the buffers of a text editor, for instance. Or you could even open a buffer in the text editor by running a fuzzy finder as another application. All of that would compose in a seamless way.
Etc. etc.

Actually this sounds a lot like OLE 2.0 from 1995.
While I’m not bullish I think markets are now closer to fairly valued than extreme over valuation, on a Schiller PE basis we are somewhere between the 5 and 10 year trailing averages, the 20 year average puts you at 25.9x which is a 12% drop from here. Sure the 40 year average is at 23.8x but if you used that as a gauge of fair value the only time you would have been below that was the depths of the financial crisis.
I’m afraid it is such a comment. HN is over-provisioned with “just asking questions” climate skeptics who use these points.

Your objections and hypotheticals are generic and do not reckon with what we do know about the specific problem of climate change.

And note, despite saying you aren’t trying to question the science, the last paragraphs in your original do just that (“the financial survival instinct for them exists”).
How would the licensing of the audio output work? If I wanted to use this to record some TTS style files for a game - would there need to be attribution? It wouldn't be shipping or using the actual code, just the final audio.
If I've partially staged some changes, why can't I stash and unstash them and get back to the same state?

The problems with git are not the commits and the DAG. It's all the ancillary stuff that's inconsistent and confusing.
Hmm I think in some cases its actually a more empathetic advice to just get over it as a non-issue and think about other things.
Western Democracies are sleep-walking into their own destruction by way of hostile foreign influence of the population.

Our governments have foolishly, stupidly allowed social media to be used by adversaries to provoke dissension, coordinate destructive mob action, to influence elections, etc, etc.

We are going to be destroyed because we give our hostile adversaries the same benefit of the doubt, the same freedoms, the same access to our population, as we do our own people.

Notably, the same does not apply in the reverse.

Why would you not consider that caveat? The cooling rate should be generally proportional to both the surface area and the current temperature delta between the liquid and whatever it contacts. Taken to the extreme, if you added the creamer and then poured the coffee out onto the floor, the creamer's mass and temperature would have relatively little impact compared to the surface area change.

Pad url aliases would be nice to have. But I would have to gate it behind a login so that there are no clashes. Would you be ok signing up with a magic link for such a feature? Then you could name your pad with however short of a name you want. Without a login, even a short UUID would be random characters and hard to speak over the phone.
Probably depends on the specific team, but I’ve never seen anyone at Apple use anything but Keynote since shortly after it became available. Apple is very sensitive to design, and Keynote’s default templates provide good design out of the box.
Did you actually do an experiment? This seems simple enough to run a quick experiment and see which one works better.

> I can't see space exploration being any different.

Right, human history with famines, disease, natural disasters, wars, was bloody. But compared with space, the earth has been a total dream land: Protection from cosmic rays. Just the right amount of gravity. Often plenty of water and game. Caves for shelter. Fire for warmth. Simple tools that actually worked well, e.g., could kill a deer, good for eating, especially if have a rock with a sharp edge and a fire -- in space, no deer. As the OP will have essentially to confirm, little or no water. On earth, in lots of places lots of rain -- no rain out there. On earth, rivers and lakes -- none of that out there. Also wood for building material, good fire, housing, tools, weapons, carts, boats, even open ocean sailing -- no wood in space. Animal skins for housing, clothing, shoes, etc. -- no animal skins out there.
On a personal level, sure, you’re right. On the longer, broader timespan, you are wrong. Democracy, human rights, personal freedom: That’s what’s on the line, and it is foolish to be cavalier about the situation.
I think a much stronger threat stems from Trump's blatant lies about systemic and wide spread election fraud - that are fueling unwarranted distrust in the election system.

This is prompting election-lie advocates to run for state-level election offices. We have impeccable supervisors of elections (both parties) who have received numerous death threats, for simply showing how election fraud allegations are false.

Florida has created an entire law enforcement agency to find election fraud where it doesn't exist.

All of this exists even after courts all over the country bench slapped every one of the bogus election lawsuits.

I submit that any implication that there wasn't meaningful harm done - or that widespread meaningful harm isn't ongoing - falls far short of the mark.
So how does staging work? In particular:

1. If I've partially staged some changes, why can't I stash and unstash them and get back to the same state?

2. How come stashes are sort of like commits but sort of not? I've managed to get into a state where I had a stash that couldn't be popped because it was in the wrong format - how can I tell when this will or won't happen?
The police aren't going to read your comments, those actually victimized, far more likely.

There are far more family and friends of victims in Uvalde, much more likely to find your heinous comment, trying to make light of a tragedy, absolutely needlessly.

You are not commenting on a CFR document, furthering public discourse.

You can dress it up all you want, these comments are disgusting, do nothing to add value to any sane discourse in any way, and are a direct attempt to make a small dopamine hit for yourself, all from a tragedy that I am sure you believe you personally would had superman'd into.

no good faith thoughts, just shit keyboard drivel. disgusting, you and all the thoughtless NPC's that further endow snarky dim-witted remarks from a national tragedy should be ashamed -- had you had an ounce of agency, an iota of empathy, a semblance of self-reflection...

"should be ashamed"...yea, let us hear what you know of shame
> Intuitively I’d think they are wildly similar, or correlated

The thing is that if you are willing to bet on the price movement of a token, futures are a much more cost and capital efficient way to do so.

- Its more capital efficient because you can leverage futures. Say you want an exposure of $1000 on the price of BTC and only have access to a spot market. You would need to actually buy $1000 worth of BTC, or use margin (a loan basically, but the interests are prohibitive). With futures, you would just need to maintain the required margin amount depending on your preferred leverage, so you could get that $1000 BTC exposure with a post of $100. For the same exposure of $1000, futures allows you to use less capital, or conversely with the same capital, you can have more exposure with futures.

- Trading fees are much lower on futures, since this is mainly a virtual, exchange-owned instrument. There is often no actual movement of the underlying when trading futures, especially if everything is settled in cash. Futures trading fees are often significantly lower than spot.

These advantages of futures often lead them to have _much_ more liquidity than the actual spot market, which in turn means they are much more stable.

What we see often on small marketcap coins is that the ownership of tokens is opaque. Regularly, some whales (sometimes even unknowingly) dump huge amounts of the coin on the spot market, which leads to flash crashes until market makers can provide back some liquidity. This is very unlikely to happen on futures, since the liquidity is so much higher, dumping some millions worth in the market wouldn't dry out the book all that dramatically.

I did not check numbers recently, but just to give you a rough idea, the daily traded amount on uniswap (spot, decentralized) should be around $1B/day, Binance spot should be around $10B/day, and Binance perpetual futures around $40B/day.
The thing that bugs me about these "worst x since y year" articles is that the metrics are always so arbitrary. In this case, their definition of "worst heatwave" seems to be "Tokyo charted temperatures above 35C on Wednesday for a fifth straight day." Just wait until next year when the new metric is "Tokyo charted temperatures above 37C for 3 days". Also Tokyo != Japan!

Grumbling aside, I do welcome articles that bring attention to climate change issues, but they should really come with the caveat that climate change is about much more than just the ambient temperature.
Sorry, I don't speak german and can't understand the linked post.

Is that 95% solved or unsolved?
This is a thorough explanation of their reasoning with pointers to relevant laws and rules. Their position is that the law doesn’t allow them to approve this and they say which laws and why. What else do you want? A 140 character limit? Would you have preferred a stamp that say ‘Denied’ with no explanation? Congress requires agencies to explain themselves. This is a good thing and a sign that decisions aren’t arbitrary and that things are working.
Japan, South Korea, the Philippines, etc. would all turn their backs on the US if the US lets a liberal democracy fall to an authoritarian state LARPing as Communists.
Where did Microsoft get the “Northwind Traders” data?

That they die is not so embarrassing. Instead when they die, in practice they will freeze (it's cold out there) and, due to the high expense of any alternative, just accumulate, pile up, frozen and stay visible for 1000+ years.
Why bother with nuclear:

1. fields belong to trees, grass, animals, not to some ugly panels that were produced with millions of tons of toxic waste that was then dumped into the ocean.

2. windmills are ugly, kill birds, ruin microclimate.

3. Additional expertise in fission will lead to more capital, talent, and mindshare available to develop fusion further.

How would a spacefaring civilization get off from this rock and survive without nukes?

Colonization of planets cannot happen without them. Renewables is just the Sun, rebadged, nothing "renewable" about it.
In some countries like Australia and New Zealand, Nintendo is bound by law to accept some types of returns: see https://www.nintendo.com.au/support/articles/refund-for-down... which has an extra section at the bottom:

We can provide a remedy if the game or DLC fails to meet a consumer guarantee under the Australian Consumer Law in Australia or the Consumer Guarantees Act in New Zealand. Details of Australian consumers’ rights under the Australian Consumer Law can be found at www.consumerlaw.gov.au. Details of New Zealand consumers’ rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act can be found at www.consumerprotection.govt.nz.

These protections are actually quite broad, as Valve found itself in hot water for quite a few years back: https://www.pcgamer.com/valve-posts-a-notice-about-australia...

When you buy video games from Valve Corporation as a consumer located in Australia, the video games come with guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law that cannot be excluded, including a guarantee that the video games are of acceptable quality. You are entitled to a replacement or refund from the retail supplier of the video games for a major failure and for compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the video games repaired or replaced by the retail supplier of the video games if the video games fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure. Certain other rights are available directly against manufacturers that cannot be excluded or limited.

From my quick reading of the source (jquery/not minified, so it was easy to scan through) valid is just the having all the required terms and a minimum length based on the round.

Great concept, good job on shipping. I think you put in the right level of polish for a Show HN to get good feedback. I would expect a fancier set of valid/scoring for it to be worth a paid service.

I agree on combining the intro screens, I would want maybe 2 clicks max before being in the game (especially once I've already understood the general concept). I like the timed aspect, it in a way made me actually play, I probably would have just left if it wasn't timed.

This might be silly, but I think the game "experience" itself could also be more fun in terms of personality. It's obviously a more adult target than say math blaster, but I wonder if there isn't still room for some whimsy with a character, a mission or something. Maybe you play as some sort of freelance copy editor at computer in a work from home virtual room or something, and you are getting emails to an inbox, and once you open an email/level you have to respond to it in a certain time, and that makes your boss unhappy/happy etc. All the same mechanics you already have. If you can determine some sort of score maybe it goes to points or money or something, then you can do silly stuff like buy a virtual cat bed for your cat or plant for your desk, or something silly like that as you progress. Basically, more game like/more gamified.
> when the good overwhelms the bad and the trend is towards improvement

Do you have any data or references to back that up?

There are more people starving today than there were people even alive just a couple hundred years ago. Around 10,000 years ago, 71% of the Earth's ground surface was covered by forests. Today, it's just 27% and still decreasing. Most of that deforestation obviously occurred in the past century. America is supposedly the land of the free but committed genocide to take the land. Other such imperialism took and takes place. Wealth inequality continues to widen in ways that requires new mathematics to properly model the extreme distribution and wealth and power continue to concentrate. Democracy is at its most feeble point in history. Over 5 billion pounds of carpet goes straight into the landfill every year, most of which has been replaced by other brand new, non-recycled carpet. Native plants and wildlife are at all-time lows, and yet, nothing but vanity and invasive plants are sold at nurseries.

Depressing facts like these could be listed nearly ad infinitum. Just go read the following UN report or a local talk by a native plant expert.

https://www.un.org/sustainabledevelopment/blog/2019/05/natur...

Humanity is a cancer upon this Earth. If you think there is hope, watch this talk to get a sense of just how complex the problem is to reverse human behavior: https://youtu.be/zHbOfgjcd9k. Although the talk gives a message of hope, it also describes how real change requires deep, fundamental adjustments in how we humans live our lives, something that will not happen. Our primate brains are not capable of the level of adjustment required.
CME futures are nothing you described above. Their liquidity is very poor, with tons of gaps in the price chart, and maybe like max 500M of vol a day, on the highest vol day, but really more like 120M vol a day.

The reality is a lot of the vol on btc is due to liquidations. On one hand, volatility, on the other, crypto liquidations are much more fair than stock market margin.
It really makes you wonder where all that money went. Monetary Theory tends to treat central bank interest rates and government taxes/borrowing as two sides of the same coin. For various reasons the US has leaned more heavily on the interest rate manipulation over fiscal policy for the last ~30 years - but I do wonder if we're missing an accountability aspect of interest rate based stimulus.
Most Americans live paycheck to paycheck because they are out spending their money (bars, restaurants, gas commuting, going to the movies etc. = discretionary spending), but because of lockdowns they weren’t able to do that (yes some of that money got spent on other things (computer monitors and streaming services)) but the us savings rate has never been higher[1], and the wait staff that were out of jobs made more money not working than when they did!

"you really have no hope of knowing whether or not your account has been compromised/used for some nefarious purpose already" this is an interesting point.

Although the same would be true if your password to site in question itself got compromised, which is probably more likely. You wouldn't have any way of knowing if your account has been used for some nefarious purpose already too.
Gaming revenues across the board are flat or down post-COVID, and especially with Russian consumers taken out.

Gaming is mostly unprofitable given the excessive 30% commissions charged by Valve, Apple, Google, Sony, Microsoft. Only platform owners make consistent profits.
Oh man I remember that “make your own GG codes” tutorial tape. My nerdy preteen self spent many hours making my own (usually terrible) cheat codes and bragging about them at the lunch table the next day. Thinking back on it, half the codes were dumb stuff like “turn Sonic red” that probably would have a been a big hit if the modern Sonic fandom existed back in the 90s.

I hit my apex a few years later in the n64 era when a few games started to leave in cut content or beta stuff. Gamesharking cut content back into Goldeneye and Banjo Kazooie blew the other kids’ minds back then.

Funnily enough, a few years ago I found myself using Cheat Engine to skip a grindy part of a game - and it turned out that the code hunting skills from my childhood transferred perfectly. The exact same techniques from that old VHS tape applied, all wrapped up in a modern GUI.
What is it to you if somebody questions the natural world? That's the key step of scientific inquiry.

I don't think we have much else to talk about here as you're trying to focus on the specifics of climate change and I've told you that my comment was for a different purpose: backing up the other person's comment that a lot of appeals to science felt like a religious belief. But for what it's worth, your objections to my comments have only reinforced my opinion because your objection seems to take the form of religious offense, even taking offense at somebody daring to ask questions that express the littlest doubt or questioning the moral purity of your sect's leaders.
To me, the interesting question is why a foreign company is doing a better job of understanding what American teenagers wanted than domestic firms with seemingly infinite bankroll to work with.

Nobody forced anyone to install TikTok at gunpoint. Presumably, if there was a more compelling domestic product, the kids would go there instead. Why has that product failed to materialize?

I know, you can't really set out to manufacture "cool", but maybe we need to get back the spark in this sector. I don't think the existing players are capable of creating an appealing blank-slate social platform. They might have the cash and technical chops, but they have negative social currency. Facebook/Meta's brand is hopelessly tainted: if it's not creepy spying, it's still where Mom and Dad hang out to swap antivax memes. Google might have a little more cool left-- not much-- but they're also attached to such teen favourites as "crappy limited school-provided Chromebook" and "we have 92 chat apps on our phones and still can't reach each other".

Tax revenues grew monotonically across the tax reforms of the 1980s in smoothly boring fashion with no discontinuities. That is pretty much a textbook definition of "revenue neutral".

Are you arguing that the tax revenue grew too quickly to be defined as "revenue neutral"?

Blocking sunlight takes off pressure to stop driving up CO2.

Rising CO2 is acidifying the oceans, something shade helps not at all. Resulting ocean ecosystem collapse eliminates access to protein for a large fraction of humanity. Mass famine provokes global war. War halts sun blocking activity. Temperature shoots up faster than ever.

Furthermore: rising CO2 is already interfering with cognition. Shade helps with that not at all.

Money is fungible. Money spent on shade is money not spent on addressing the cause of multiple identified problems that shade does not help.

How much more heat forcing do you suppose would be driven by burning enough rocket fuel to put millions of tons of crap into orbit?

The whole prospect is BS, but it exerts a sick fascination that is harmful by itself, as it makes it seem like disaster can be averted any time with no fundamental change.
