The Machine Learning model calculates a purity score based on features extracted from nanotube TEM (Transmission Electron Microscopy) via semantic segmentation.

Additional models to extract more information about nanotubes from different material characterization sources to come in future releases
Yeah, I'm curious how common this is. If anyone has done it/is doing it successfully, could you share more about the approach? It sounds valuable in theory but it also sounds like a ton of time during which people can half-listen and say "Sure sure, looks good", especially on a larger team.
Did you actually work out what there return was before saying that? It’s well past the 4.5% a jump from 1.8B to 2.8B in 10 years suggests.

For an ultra low risk investment in a period of cheap money it was extremely hard to beat.
Maybe my phrasing was awkward, but I said you would only have to do this once for a given account. So, if I've never accepted a share from you before, your links won't work. When you share something with me for the first time, I would have to accept it via a Google-sent email containing a link that only Google knows (not something that can be sent via slack), and then all your future share links would work for me on slack. The error page denying access could even indicate that the user should check their email for additional verification.

You can think of it as the equivalent of a friend request. "This person tried to share a file with you. Do you know this person? Are you sure you want to receive files from them?"

This is not some outlandish solution. This should not be "pretty annoying". Based on my own experience, most people would go months or years between seeing these emails, since people tend to share files with (and receive files from) the same people over and over.

Moreover, in a work context, you would probably be sharing links to files that are on a shared google drive that I have equal access to already, so that would not require additional verification. It's not an unsolicited link to someone else's Google Drive... it's a link to a drive that I already have read/write access to.
You won't know until you try. If I were you, I would jump on it.
I have a bootstrapped business started in 2016 doing something like 12k/month in MRR but also doing 35-50k/month in consulting around it. The consulting side is not at all MRR but it's pretty stable.
So even if MRR is not great sometimes it's still interesting because of consulting or even reputation.

If it was only about MRR it would not make sense compared to a full time job in IT. But all in all it's better because I was able to start other businesses, hire, and be my own boss.
Not wholly different; it appears to be intended to interop with, and progressively replace C++ in existing projects.
That's exactly it. Polls like this can say a lot of things but whatever the wording what a large number of people read is "do you believe in God?" and they think the question is not being asked by some neutral questioner.
It really depends on the content.
I'm pretty sure most of the damage was done before people realized the significance of deforestation.

We certainly now know the impact of deforestation, and that it affects the entire planet.
I am surprised he doesn’t like the more recent additions to JavaScript. I liked ES6 features quite a lot.

Tell HN: My new free note taking tool
So there are a lot of posts here about personal knowledge databases & note taking apps ... and methodologies. I wanted a way to keep track of info & just as importantly be able to easily see & edit that data from anywhere.

I wanted it to be robust, free, web-based, able to host code examples as actual files (e.g. style.css or script.js), and host images.

Turns out this is all available with Github & Gitlab.

Step 1: Create a Private Repo
Step 2: Hit the . key or use the editor URL pattern: https://github.dev/{{username}}/{{repo-name}}
Step 3: Start using ... you can add sub-directories with Markdown for notes ... you can add all the file types above.

For Gitlab just click "Web IDE" from your project's homepage.

(I made this URL: https://github.dev/{{username}}/{{repo-name}} my homepage, making it super easy to access.)

This is absolutely nothing new; but the epiphany I had a week or so ago about using a repo in this way seems to have really stuck (yes, a week is a short period of time but often a note app or approach sticks for a day or 2 for me).

I'm really curious if others do something like this & what other sorts of practices they might employ while doing this.
Thinking about all the people ahead of us is super inspiring. Our world of 7.5B is expected to reach 10B in just 2050. I can't help but think about all the new lives coming into existence, experiencing life for the first time, seeing stars for the first time.

Thinking about their challenges, their fears, their families.

Effective Altruism gets a bad rep for all the talk about suffering, existential threats, and poverty, but I feel like it's helped me zoom out and see our world in whole.
I am definitely not one of that 25%. I liked my former coworkers well enough, but my situation is significantly better now.

60% raise, I get bonuses again, more PTO, better work culture, learning newer tech, actually building new software instead of 80% maintenance and support (it used to be mostly coding but transitioned into the other over time), no more late nights or being called in to support a network outage, etc.

If anything I should have left a lot sooner.
I think what would be most interesting and helpful is an augmented form of reading that is semantic. I would love to have bold and italics and even section headings and table of contents that are toggleable on and off as I read anything, to quickly skim and focus on the most relevant content.

I can also imagine a version of this which is contextual, based off a query, or a personalized recommendation system.

I spend much more time skimming than reading, and skimming to determine if something is worth reading. Anything that can support that is incredibly valuable and would increase my functional reading speed for accomplishing tasks.
If you use a cold weather composition in hot weather, you get melting asphault like this. If you use a warm weather composition in cold weather, you get cracks and potholes earlier than normal. Your composition is typically defined by climate conditions, not weather extremes.
I am not arguing in favor of the US or Europe, and I am also not arguing that Brazil should keep putting down trees just to sell more soybeans for the US and China.

What I am saying is that the rich countries need to quit their double standard. The EU keeps putting absurd trade barriers to protect their own farmers. The US subsidizes their corn farms, effectively killing the Brazilian industry for biofuels. European NGOs are financed to disparage Brazil's investments in hydropower, while depending on Putin for gas and coal.

So, yeah, agro business is far from ideal, but now is the only feasible alternative for Brazil to come up with any chance of development, and they will also work against that? I'd be more than willing to listen what they have to say if they were setting the example...
Wasn't the great resignation just baby boomers retiring?

Even as someone who's doesn't struggle with them, there's way too many for too little text here. It puts me off reading it and also highly distracting when I'm trying to. I ended up just deleting them from the DOM, they add nothing.
Not just a fraction, but only during limited times of day.

On a windless night, nuclear still produces power.
For nuance and to address your point, I have worked with PHP for about six years, .NET for five, C++ for two, and Python for seven.

I still dabble in all of them. Who knows when I will move on to the next. Rust looks nice. I tried go.

But they do not yet provide any of the tools/libraries I need for my work. That's how I've always selected my programming language.

So I would first need to invent the universe before I can create valuable things. Instead I will just wait until their ecosystems mature a little more.

I will end the discussion here though. Thanks for the response!
Indeed, the relative importance of that and the AM/GM change ("formula effects") can be seen in this document from the UK Office of National Statistics

It's not hostile, it's helpful.

For everyone who takes the time to explain why they bounced, 1000 people did so without taking the time to explain.

I am sure the majority of people here who saw this hit back the second they saw the ticking countdown timer. Few bothered to come back and advise against it.
So you had no problem with Golang being led by Google for more than 10 years and now this new language is somehow a problem because that one is also led by Google?
Disney World didn't open until 1971, 11 years after your 1960. So just with that, we actually have 2x more Disney's than we did in 1960. But in reality there's actually a lot more.

Epcot opened in 1982. Hollywood Studios and Typhoon Lagoon opened in 1989. Blizzard Beach opened in 1995. Animal Kingdom opened in 1998. California Adventure opened in 2001. These are only the parks in the US, not including the parks overseas. On top of that a few of these parks have had a good bit of expansion since their original opening, there has been more engineering to increase effective capacity of the rides, etc. Disney alone can move a lot more people through a Disney park every day than they could in 1960.

And then this ignores all the other theme parks which opened since Disney. Universal Orlando Resort opened in 1990. Universal's Islands of Adventure opened in 1999. Kings Island opened in '71. Carowinds opened in '73. Six Flags alone has 11 theme parks they still operate which opened after 1960, and all water parks they operate opened after 1960. Our stock of amusement parks has increased a ton since 1960.
I feel like anytime you get marketing using words like "fastest", "easiest", "best", "world's greatest", etc, you are entering the realm of hucksterism
I lived 15 min from Ocean City for 3 months last summer, that place was miserable. Assateague State Park was just south and much better, with wild horses too. But no lodging besides camping.
Stadiums remain pretty full in my anecdotal experience, so while they may have priced out the general public, they don't fit anyway.
> Time is just a statistical construct

This is an incredible misunderstanding! Honestly, it's like saying that planet Earth is flat.

Did you meant something like "time zones are a social construct"? This true but quite a different claim that the one you made (which is not surprising since what you said is just nonsense).
It seems that they only work properly if JavaScript is enabled...
Anytime I interview I get that impression, but when I work with teams of varying talent levels, there are a lot of people that can write good code it just takes a long time. In the long term these people are more useful than people who write ok code quickly, because they, slowly, reduce the amount of tech debt.

One problem is that it is extremely hard for management to tell good devs apart from bad devs. So that puts a huge randomness in as far as who is given authority and interesting projects and so on. Some of the best devs I have worked with, the best bosses I have worked for would not rehire. It is quite odd.
The worst thing is, that little-germans (austrians) are protesting, when we here in Slovenia want to build a new block for our existing nuclear power plant.
If it can't be done on a MC68000 (or thousands in parallel), then does it really need to be done?
There is a word for an irrational fear of this particular type of tool: hoplophobia
have you gotten an email about icann verification at some point?
Interesting thought - but what about an alternative scenario where they invested the same amount in renewables, but with a 20 year phase out for nuclear? They could have reduced reliance on coal and natural gas instead, thereby reducing the political reliance on Russia as well.
Glassdoor makes you fill out your own company review in order to view others. However you actually don’t know how anonymous they are and if there is a way to find who wrote it as it can present legal risks to employees
People on HN really be throwing around terms like "monopoly" with no sense.

How is baseball a monopoly? There's not only competition between teams and leagues, but with other sports!

How is Disneyland a monopoly? There's not only competition with other theme and amusement parks, but with all forms of passive entertainment (plays, movies, comedy shows, music festivals)!
The real benefits to a 4K Blu-Rays are HDR and the much higher chroma resolution.
There is that, and there is also the fact that the average wage has fallen in the past century.

Odd that the graph shows how much better the average family is off than in 1960, 60 years ago. As the graph shows, 1960 to 1970 was the largest boost. And most of the family income boost from 1970 to now was due to the wife having to work, not higher wages.

Not the case for Google L6s, but the economics of the majority of US workers.
There's a lot of people working in that automation. That earn much more and make the country more efficient, more production means more jobs down the road.

Also, countries like brasil don't export commodities just because they want, there 's a web of tariff to keep producing countries from industrializing those products.
There's a similar story happening with our rail lines. The story seems to be that the materials we used in the UK are not stressed to deal with 40 degree heat. They never thought it would be an issue in the UK. Whereas many European railway lines were made to deal with 40-45 degree heat. I'm guessing it's the same for runway tarmac or whatever it is ...

Climate change is here ...
Is that relevant at relative speeds of say 1 m/s and distances of a few tens of meters?
My main take away from this is that both the opponents and proponents of CRT have way too much faith in the education system.
Note that the sad state of French nuclear is of course mainly due to internal incompetence (and mismanagement, Anne Lauvergeon should probably be in jail) and poor planning.

However, the Areva-Siemens (and Alstom) quagmire, and the insane electricity market liberalization pushed by the EU have also played a role. German policies not only managed to destroy domestic nuclear, but also cripple the French.
I recently saw a documentary where someone was researching what the best way would be to label nuclear waste facilities such that future (far, far furture) generations would understand what's in there. You can't just slam an English text on there and hope in tens of thousands of years it will be understood by whatever creature visits it. Even only in light of just that, calling everything solved is a bit far fetched, no?

Practically all software pricing is arbitrary, which is the point I was trying to make. It costs roughly $0 to distribute an extra unit of software (generally speaking)

Has no "sophisticated technical founder" ever bought anything on sale before? Give me a break
What does the fact that we are allies change? This is espionnage in any case and the US has shown that they do not miss a beat when it comes to stealing information from us.

We would be doing the same of course if we were not much weaker and if our products were actually used over there.
CAPS, "fake", "BS"...

Wrong. The German government has said that the plants would have to run at reduced capacity now to make it through winter with the current fuel, so they might as well run them at full capacity until their EOL.

And pretending that there wouldn't be staffing issues is ridiculous.
Parents are just gonna have to improvise: feeder team instead of the Yankees, second run theaters, Lake Compounce instead of Disneyland. The U.S. population has grown while the number of Disneylands and major league teams has remained about the same. Plus, the internet and mass media have amplified fandom. Disney theme parks used to be thought of as interesting and fun for the kids. Today, untold legions of Disney adults make the hajj to Mickey Mecca every year. The same with going to your favorite team's stadium to watch them play. The result is the venues are more crowded, the lines are longer, and due to the laws of supply and demand, prices go up.

So Mickey Mecca is out of reach for a typical family outing. But it can be planned and saved for as a special event; and more local, less famous, less expensive destinations will more than do for a typical summer trip.
D is closer to this than this rust rip-off
IME the primary friction point is constantly having to ask designers to consider transitional and error states, and constantly having to ask for image files to be shared in a consistent size (including consistent padding).
A GOP president pushed hard to get vaccine released in under a year.
Also strongly recommend people take it.

The issue came in forcing vs persuading.

Also people who got Covid before vaccine were totally ignored and let in an awkward position of being demonized for a vaccine that is to late.
I am trying to find how they define "cheese" in this study and I can't seem to find it. They talk about high saturated fat content but that's not a defining feature of cheese. For example, cottage cheese can have low to no fat and it's still "cheese". The cheddar slices they put on hamburgers is mostly vegetable oil, but that too is considered cheese.
They have economically viable solutions. They're just not politically viable because the current system is designed for the profit of wealthy cartels.
They typically can for Individual Contributors that are software engineers
People also tell to build wind and solar, while ignoring that those two needs to be backed up by coal and gas.
Perhaps those manufacturing jobs could pay closer to software if the employers were willing to give more equity.
ES6 is what makes JS bearable to write modern day. Totally don't understand his point here. Who wants endless nested promise chains?
It is very difficult to recognize the dysfunction of a system that works to one's own benefit. Enough people are comfortable under the current system that any coherent policy change seems unlikely.
Solar doesn't work at night of course, but wind power does. Actually, on average, it is stronger at night. Yes, we have to supply power in the times of low renewable production. Though there are renewables which are good for it like biomass and water.
Nuclear is the worst to accompany renewables, because it is the slowest power source from a load switching perspective. Gas is the one which is fast switching, that is why the typical peaker plants run on gas. They could run on oil of course, but that would be much worse.
In the future, the gas is to be produced renewable, and of course energy storate has to be extended.
Bitcoin has already failed in every way that really matters to most people.

About all that's left at this point is criminal activity, anarchist cult and naive speculation.
It's these types that the park caters to and a significant part of why Disney can charge so much more than a "comparable" theme park. Personally, I've done the theme park thing as a kid and later with my kid and have no interest in going to one ever again. My county fair is this weekend. It's free and less than 2 miles from my home. I doubt I'll attend this year but do go about every other year. That's plenty of that atmosphere for me.

Now get off my lawn.
> Do we even know if they have many S-X00s set up there, already?

Their targeting is such shit they can’t avoid shooting down their own materiel. Russia’s menace is more akin to the Taliban than the USSR or China. A pest due to proximity.
Why can't they government fix my pet peeves?

This kind of thinking is what's leading us to a prison society without privacy or freedom, one little whiny step at a time.

The government should do as little as possible, and the least at the federal level.
This is correct and supported by statistical findings within Political Science.
We can re-use nuclear waste now. Something like 90% of "waste" can be recycled and reused. It's not like we're just shoving it in yucca mountain anymore.
I'm not a fan of richer (or poorer!) countries saying much of anything about what other countries should or should not do. :) Everyone is biased. Everyone is hypocritical to some degree. We should find common ground, not impose or be imposed on.
> Did the GOP's reach extend to the island nation of New Zealand on the other side of the globe?

Well, yeah. New Zealand had great policies and good compliance.

Then the same shitty murdoch and facebook led conspiracy theories, selfishness, and lies spread. Now they're dealing with the same issues as everyone else. Plus without the insane propaganda machine, lack of aid, and hoarding of unused vaccines we may not have even developed some of the mutations or had it become endemic in animal populations.

At least people in new zealand had a chance to get fully vaccinated there and avoid the short term death toll though.
Probably not, if using casks and storing on site which costs nearly nothing?

Reactors don’t generate a lot of waste by volume, and it gets less of a problem over time by it’s very nature.
Just curious, Australia being mostly desert, if the rest of the planet became similarly barren, would it still work out? I don't know how food-independent Australia is...

One of the issues with tests like these is that the companies sponsor the research and they are one-off vs long exposure studies; that is as with most interfaces with high-throughput, takes time for the mind to adjust.

My guess that given human speech appears to have a universal transmission rate of around 39-bits per second, that on average that’s going to be the actual performance target:

the fact that the rhetoric and wardrumming has not abated seems to indicate FAANG players are facing a no-win situation when it comes to competition. The fact that Facebook and Youtube shorts are near-nightly parity scrapes of Tiktok content and they still cant manage to staunch the loss of viewers is a pretty damning indictment of the leadership at these groups.

Huawei went through basically the same thing when western chip companies and telcos were beat to market by nearly a year for 5G. Grinding the red scare axe to an audience of bought and paid for octogenarians is still a pretty good grift it seems.
The Arizona Diamondbacks have sucked the fun out of going to the ballpark. Even with the cheapest seats in the league, it’s unpleasant. The cheapest seat gets you a nose bleed look at one of the worst teams in baseball. You overlook the rest of the empty stadium, while your kid, unable to concentrate on the ants, find more pleasure in just about anything. They’re not cultivating the next generation of fans.

Have a once a week/month/year special, ideally not on a school night (if during the school year), where the seats are sold same day for $5 - for any seat left in the stadium. Get the kids into the crowds, up close, with some excitement. Maybe a $20/seat combo that includes your seat, a hotdog, drink and a box of cracker jacks.
