I do surface mount with a $20 hotplate from Target. A lot of parts you can even do with a soldering iron. I know it looks scary but once you give it a try you'll find it's not really any harder than through-hole and doesn't require any special equipment.
The main thing to know is that reposts are fine after a year or so. pvg has already pointed this out but it's worth emphasizing.

When I post "related" links like in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32135274, the purpose is simply to point readers to other discussions they may find interesting. It's not meant to imply "these are dupes that shouldn't have been reposted". I hope that's clear!
Powerline communications usually needs dedicated Ethernet (or what have you) <-> power line converter... I think they meant something more like powerhammer [1] which works by controlling processor workload, causing the power draw of the system to throttle up and down in such a way that it becomes a useful exfiltration channel (assuming your adversary can tap into a distribution board and measure power usage).

We're just pond scum on the surface of the planet. The pond hasn't been touched.

Also, minerals are not "used up". They are transformed into different compounds. With energy, they can be transformed into more useful forms.

Besides, he misses the third source of wealth - ideas and information. Anyone who writes software is creating wealth.
I recommend watching this lecture, as the effect here isn't magic or fake: it is just a tradeoff of how you manage your portfolio to convert volatility into return and there is a ton of well-studied math relating to how it works.

https://youtu.be/8TJQhQ2GZ0Y

And like, yes: there is a moment in the lecture where he explicitly sets up a scenario where the expectation value of your bets sums to zero and yet the rebalancing makes money.

It isn't a free lunch, of course: if the two assets both go down and stay down then you lose money, and you don't gain as much money as you'd want on the way up; but if they are both sputtering around you definitely make money.

If you were to somehow be able to rebalance infinitely fast it also doesn't make money; and yet, it only makes money in relationship to the volume you are able to rebalance, so there is another tradeoff.

At the end of the day you can thereby model it as making money by providing the service of "providing liquidity" to the market, and what you are effectively doing is taking a spread on that as a market maker.

Teslas Will Soon Become Video Game Platforms
No one cares. This kind of surveillance and massive overreach by intelligence agencies has been reported dozens of times for at least 20 years now.

The most recent example i remember was of facial recognition in airports. Media reported it, some people whined about it, oh maybe the people will demand privacy? lol. Now its standard procedure. Delta even does boarding based on facial ID by default.

"Raising awareness" does nothing. Commenting on online forums does nothing. The government is in control in every way, of the markets and hence jobs/unemployment, of privacy and surveillance. We've all become excellent at reporting and following bad news even while being completely incapable of effecting any change. The median person is too poor or dumb or disempowered for this to even crack the top 10 issues. They're complaining about gas prices and rent instead. We choose between 2 geriatric clowns who can't possibly keep up with what 100,0000 government employees are doing every 4 years and a congress that can't pass a law to save its life. Democracy is working super well lol.

Honestly I often put dashes between words that should be grouped together when the parsing might otherwise be ambiguous. It's definitely not a perfect solution (no support for arbitrary nesting, not "standard" English), but it's a bit better for parsing than the German solution insofar as the delimiter isn't an empty string. :)

There is no evidence Hitler was at all involved with the execution of the holocaust either.

Funny how you're holding one responsible for the crimes of their regime and the other was a figurehead. The moral of the story is don't lose a world war if you've committed genocide.
Did you perhaps miss the second CEO post where he doesnt admit to lying

I don't buy that history is a good guide for the future here. All but the most recent history was in an era where we couldn't talk to eachother without physically travelling for weeks/months. The nature of diplomacy, politics, countries, and war have all fundamentally changed. The world has not "settled into" a new steady-state since those changes have been made (partially because significant changes are still happening).

You could reasonably extrapolate from bodies like the EU and think there is a chance we end up with a single global order that doesn't include war in the future.

That said I think you can look at the current and say with some confidence that there are at least a few wars left - there are too many current armed conflicts, and too many threats of armed conflict, to seriously believe otherwise.
Idk, it seems like one of those things that is hard to predict. Would gdp actually fall off a cliff? There would be a lot of steps that would have to happen along the way. Plus the premise isn’t really rooted in any kind of reality, so it may be a flawed argument to begin with. Just my $0.02

There is no such thing as “the industry”. There are millions of individual companies out there. Each with a unique culture shaped by the founders and people working there. So keep looking until you find a company with a culture that works for you. It took me working for 5+ companies in 5 different countries until I finally found a company with a culture that I am happy with. The range of different company cultures out there is extreme. From absolutely hell on earth toxic to perfect for you. It’s like a marriage: it can be hell or heaven depending on who you marry.
There are also zones for businesses that do or do not allow living there.
But is there a 46 billion USD value in getting Trump (I'm assuming you're referencing him) back on Twitter? He lost his last candidacy while still having a Twitter and Facebook account, I don't think just restoring his account will be enough to tip the scales in his favor.

The FUSE Protocol (2019)

The closest contact that I've had with Einstein was meeting a woman in California in the late 80s who said he used to visit her father and play the fiddle with him. On the one hand it seems amazing that such a great man would take a break and make himself available for things like that. On the other hand I wonder if he would be as widely celebrated if he hadn't done that sort of thing.
Oh. It’s been a while since I’ve worked with RSS2, IIRC some of the feeds I worked 14 yrs ago with were comment feeds off a given blog post. Maybe those implementations weren’t true to spec.
We ban accounts for breaking the site guidelines (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html), not for being wrong or having a minority or contrarian view. If you present your contrarian view in a substantive, respectful, curious way and avoid flamewar tropes, you should be fine.

That's not easy, though. The temptation to lash out at users representing the majority view is really high (edit: especially when one notices them posting aggressively or with lazy arguments, which is always easy to do when speaking for a majority view). It looks to me like you're succumbing to that a bit—though not so much that we would moderate or ban you.

It's a hard problem. When people feel surrounded and picked on (and may be surrounded and picked on), they have a tendency to lose it (I'm not talking about you here) and go into fulmination, wake-up-sheeple rants, and so on. Then we moderate or ban them, because protecting the container is more important than rightness or wrongness on $topic. Inevitably they conclude that we banned them because of their views, which is usually not so. (I say 'usually' because nothing is 100% true about moderation and because there exist genuinely extreme cases, which have to be handled differently.)

Good lord no, just no. Computer Science is not going to be the method to "complete physics." "Complete physics" isn't even a sensible phrase. Source: me, (former) physicist.
Since you're in Canada too, my experience might be relevant. My first McMaster order last year was cancelled with the following response:

"Due to the cost and complexity of shipping our products to Canada, we are only able to accept orders from businesses and schools. We’ve canceled your order. If this material is not for personal use, please resubmit your order online using the business or school name."

After that, I added my company's legal name to both shipping and billing address, put "Please note: this order is for business" in order comments the first couple times, and had no problems since.

I wish we had something similar in Canada that has a good selection and isn't a pain to deal with, but as it stands, McMaster is too good to give up on.

ETA: Having read your other comment, it appears they might have restricted their policy since then, but grandfathered existing clients. That would be really sad for Canadians.
You could, but probably a bad plan. We don't eat freshwater fish raw due to worse characteristics in terms of bacteria/parasites. (Though I can't really say how this plays out in terms of the whole deep freezing to kill parasites situation – not an expert, just my understanding)

Reading the comment thread it's not immediately clear what the answer is - it seems implied that the proper way is using Poetry, is that the case?
This theory certainly has logic to it but, at this point, is "acting before he thinks" really not an option for "simplest most obvious solution" for Elon Musk's non-SpaceX/Telsa-core-business-decision actions? How many more 4/20 references does he need to sneak in?

He disclosed his share in early April and then signed the deal in late April. TWTR today is about where it was from January-April pre-news-of-his-investment, so the value of his initial Twitter investment actually looks pretty stable even post-"economic collapse" (the Dow, for instance, is down 10% over this period, hence the square quotes - obviously no picnic, but did people think the crazy 2020 runup wouldn't lead to a correction?). TWTR has already largely corrected from it's 2020/2021 peak, other than that it fairly steadily went up to be almost double what it was worth 5 years ago, still seems like a solid buy if you're trying to diversify your Tesla holdings that grew way more quickly than that.

TSLA is down 37% meanwhile from April 4 peak before the Twitter drama started. If that's because of the deal, and if that's weighing on his plans now, clearly even in the most rational case he wildly mis-judged that one.

And in getting out of some TSLA he also got INTO a bunch of TWTR (unless possibly he already sold that at the peak?). Which he now seems determined to tank the value of.

But heck, since Twitter is still valued about where it was before, but Tesla has fallen, "getting out of some Tesla stock for something more stable" seems to still make a lot of sense. He thought it was worth buying at this share price before, he even made an offer to pay a big premium (against a higher price driven by the news of his move, of course), so... what of that was unforseeable or seems dramatically different.
> Things like automation, while highly efficient, result in most of the gains going to capital owners.

More goes to society. You don't see it because it is spread thinly. Think of how nice it is to have a microwave, for example. The value of my time saved is far more valuable to me than what I paid for the microwave.

Everything you and I buy we buy because the value of what we are buying is worth more to us than the money we give up to pay for it.

> How society should deal with this is another interesting question.

As I showed, society is getting the long end of the stick already.
From TFA:

"And it’s not just servers. With about 8 billion transistors on a single die, a mobile phone can get so hot it might need to spend a few minutes in a refrigerator. When that happens, the apps will fail to function correctly."

I went from chemical engineering into data science, and I wonder this constantly. Everything about chemical engineering was much more difficult (at least what you would be expected to do in a typical job; exceptions apply). I really miss the hard sciences, but I also really do not want to take a 4x pay cut.

Also, I'm not sure about the supply and demand argument. The typical ask for a data scientist is much simpler than specialized ChemE knowledge; supply should have ramped up so quickly that comp would have fallen to typical engineering salaries long ago if that were the case.

Okay. We're still just talking about Netflix, mainly because I have referred to the article and to Netflix in every reply, and because I've explicitly stated it in the first and last reply as well.

Anybody want to take a shot at how all of this will unwind?
Probably one of the best things the math team has taught me after I left was to surround myself with people of the same desires, in this case, learning. I think that ideology truly paid off in spades throughout my life since then. I'd always worried about being "cool" in school, and I'd say I still try to find that work hard / play hard balance, as cliche as it sounds. The math team introduced me to people who weren't necessarily "cool", but wanted what I wanted: good grades, a good career, etc. Now, later on in my life, surrounding myself with the smartest people has made a massive positive impact on my life.

Entering a crowded and poorly differentiated market where there already huge players with major network effects is the plan? Seems unlikely.

More likely he wanted to do exactly what he said: reduce content moderation (hence expenses) and get people to pay for verified accounts. But none of that is likely to pay back the 20B premium he'd have to pay for it today, so he wants out.

To the US, "winning" is basically defined as having access to local resources (including workers) at market rates without the responsibility of governing.

AKA -- free trade. Global free trade exists because the US wants it to. In that sense, it's currently winning/won. The size of the US military and economy (and it's close allies) are largely what enforces that world order.

Personally, I think it's better than the old model of imperialism (it's certainly way less violent and has rapidly increased living standards across the globe). But it's still a case of the big powerful countries enforcing their will on smaller countries.

It also leads you to ignore important questions. Like.. if people know fast food is "bad" for them, but they still eat it at a higher rate than some other part of the country. WHY?

It's insane to think you can just go in there, remove things that have been established for one reason or another, measure weight loss and then call it success. You have no idea what you've just manipulated.

I have no idea why this is in a journal. This should be on a "PR Newswire" type site.
No need for fancy language models, I was browsing GitHub Twitter steganography apps and came upon this:

“Twitter Steganography using manual annotation and codebooks (2014)”

(https://github.com/shadowrun96/pteroglosia)

Sure it’s an academic proof of concept, but pretty cool nonetheless, and a good combination of widely accessible technologies.

But I feel that the answer to the privacy question will lean more on low tech cunning and decentralization/reduced mediation, rather than hi tech or state-backed solutions.

Like, how do you get the NSA to not snoop on your itinerary? Buy a physical agenda/day planner, think in paper, speak face to face, walk, don’t take the phone. Easy basic stuff, though you may end up speaking in a hushed voice and utter terms like “the people”, “the system”, and “off grid” more often than usual - you know, usual for sheeple. Like a conspiratorial Tourette’s. Am I missing some rabbit ears there?

And of course we will always have rebus and heraldry (allegory and memes)!

Consider this:

“The Pooh duck-stepping a Lemming path towards a cliff.”

No tech necessary (other than the Internet, a mind blowing basic amenity), but every Chinese person can get a political message, where an algorithm would get a syntactically incorrect sentence.

“Go water bags!” is what I’m saying, I guess, though I think I lost my drift a while back :)

Do you mean, any instance of a technological advancement that has allowed the production of some good or service with less input than would have been required before the advancement? How about computers + the internet? We have access to communications and knowledge access services with input costs far lower than the equivalent services would have cost before these inventions. Or, the invention of the refrigerator? Keeping food cold costs much less than it would have before the fridge was invented.
> Normally, valuing a stock is hugely complex. But every once in a while, circumstances come along that make the math relatively straightsforward[sic]. This is one of those moments.

Technically, we just moved the really hard part to the question of "what will Twitter be worth if the deal fails". For this to work as value strategy, you either need to be really good at estimating that hard price or assign a really low chance to it.
