> Do you have any idea what a large scale nuclear disaster could cause in a densely populated Europe?

Depends, what type of plant?

Plenty of nuclear plant designs that just drop the rods into a water bath and halt all activity.

Do you realize what types of health impacts gas leaks are having on densely populated regions right now?

Or how about fracking destroying drinking water? Higher cancer and birth defect rates for surrounding communities.

> How close Japan brush with disaster as the Fukushima fallout could have hit the Tokyo region?

The amount of fallout from Fukushima was obscenely minuscule. The worst case estimates, by the most pessimistic naysayers, 130 extra deaths will result from the accident. The most commonly agreed upon estimates, 0 additional deaths.

Meanwhile, 13k people dead minimum from coal in America each year. No one even tracks the impact from the literal thousands of natural gas leaks that are ongoing. [1] is a nice visualization of natural gas incidents from 2010 to 2017.

Fukushima was a worst case scenario with massive mismanagement on multiple levels, and the sum environmental impact was less than any of the multiple of oil tanker spills that happen, quite literally, multiple times a year. [2]

What are YOU on about? Have you seen the queen, BoJo or any really rich person on the tube?
1. The US federal government has relatively little ability to regulate vehicles as compared to other countries. The US government, for instance, does not license drivers or register vehicles.

2. States do have limits on vehicle sizes (i.e the GVWR) that can be driven without a commercial drivers license.

3. We do have many limits that apply differently to cars vs. trucks. The response from the auto industry has been to build more vehicles that are classified as trucks because they have more relaxed regulations. It is very difficult to allow industry to buy the utility vehicles they need while simultaneously forcing families to not buy them.

> $10 oil

You mean $10 gas? with $10 oil, everyone would drive a tank :)
“THE BEST genes. Everybody says so. You can ask… Ask Jean. She’ll tell you. Jean, aren’t you always saying that? See?

So like I was saying we need to drill closer to home and then you save the environment.”
The challenge with doing this with an aftermarket headunit is that you need to cover a meaningful number of different vehicles in order for the feature to be useful to your customer base.

With that said, yes, if you happen to have a suitably common vehicle (e.g. Ford F150).
Where would you look to determine this?
GP mentioned C++ being replaced by Rust - I'd say that a replacement should be as capable as the thing it replaces, so if that's the claim, then Rust should be at the very least OK for GUI apps. If it's not, then that's also okay, but let's not call it a replacement then. :-)

I'm personally excited to see how all those languages will influence each other!
It's not just that Google is evil, but going after what the algorithm recommends is what is most dentrimental. It's like getting hooked on cyber cigarettes.

I have no idea why you think they need to educate others.

I don’t need any unsolicited teachings. Go on with your life, the sexuality, pronouns or identities of others are of no use to me.
A republic is a form of democracy. This strange differentiation came about as a GOP talking point in the early 2000s. I'm amazed that it is still repeated 20 year later. Saying the US is not a democracy but a constitutional republic is like saying a car is not an automobile.

Since you appear ignorant to the modern definition of apartheid, hence considering its usage hyperbolic in the context of race-based hiring practices, I offer you the Cambridge definition, unaltered straight from the dictionary:

"a system of keeping groups of people separate and treating them differently, especially when this results in disadvantage for one group"
Seems like these enterprise-in-a-box services are taking off and I like the role that they play in the ecosystem. That said there's a lot more to it than what Boxy offers – a lot of what enterprises need is about configurability and flexibility for wildly varying use-cases, as well as general compliance. It looks like Boxy (authors of this post) are building more logging and governance features soon which I think will be useful for them.

We wrote about some of the broader flexibility features on our blog as well – https://staysaasy.com/product/2022/02/19/enterprise-selling-...
OK I think I got what you're saying, is that memorizing means that it will perform only on data it has seen in training that is exactly identical to the current one, and it will fail on even slight variations. My question then becomes what's the boundary of that extrapolation in order for it to be considered learning vs memorization? For example to come back to my earlier example, let's say a model is trained on photos of cars taken from only some angles, then it should be able to extrapolate to the intermediate ones without having seen the exact same photo. A large dataset would ensure that it has enough angles to be able to do that right? But there is no amount of photos that will make it identify a car from an underneath photo if it hasn't already seen one from underneath I wouldn't think. So this is the limit of 'learning' as opposed to 'memorization'?

Honestly this comes across as a "gays are sex-obsessed predators" argument and it seems kind of silly, even if that wasn't your intention.

There are already loads of outlets which are focused explicitly on hookups. I struggle to see a reason that this pretty innocent "flatshares for people who don't want to be gay-bashed" site would become one.
I've been using the free tier for two years and am yet to run into anything shady. Saved me countless bucks in the meantime (before arguing that it's like two seconds of work for you, remember that other countries do exist, and even something like DigitalOcean is pretty costly for many of us). Unlike many other free tiers you are not able to create any paid resources unless you opt in into the paid tier.
In my experience compiler error messages have gotten hugely better, except for template issues which are still very verbose. Especially with clang.
Every IP is a home. Problem solved!
The pessimist in me says it's because people want to cling to anything that lets them say "See, I knew it wasn't a big deal, I/we don't need to change our behavior", especially when it comes to climate change. I've seen this first-hand from relatives who are very quick to talk about "see the science wasn't right in this 1 instance" while ignoring everything that doesn't fit their world view.

That said, I'd argue the "news" agencies really should be the ones held to some account for printing whatever they are told (be it from scientists, the police, and everyone in between. Don't get me started on "printing" tweets as facts or wide-spread opinion). Also the "news" agencies love this kind of thing, they get to double dip all while acting holier than thou and taking no responsibility for the BS they put out.
>never been to something like the State Fair,

Schools get a day off each year for Fair Day in the North Texas area. Obviously, you don't have to go to the fair, but each student gets a free ticket, and "most" people typically went at least once during their school years. The "most" people seems pretty broad brush in my experience.
This is precisely the kind of socializing influence my 4-year elder sister brought to me! Her words are burned into my brain: "Other people don't think the way you do!"

With that simple statement she opened up a whole new world to me.

What movie theater are they going to that has $9 tickets? Even the non profit theater near my house cost more than that. The AMC is 11.20 per adult and 9.09 per kid.
As other comments have said, it was almost uniquely rejected in the USA, and enjoyed a healthy long lifespan in almost every other country. They are still, in fact, making blank MDs. Those in the USA can type "mdw80t" into eBay if they'd like some.

MiniDisc is my favorite example of "History is written by the USA" - younger people in many countries believe it was a failure, even though it was successful in their own country, just because it failed in the USA, and it's mostly the USA who write blogs, make YouTube videos, post to social media.
Gunshot wounds are caused by the impact of the bullet, not the pulling of the trigger. To say I killed that guy is ridiculous.

edit: at least someone who sells bullets or guns has the excuse that they can be used for sports or entertainment. If you pull oil out of the ground, it's meant to be burned, made into plastic, or put outside to roast in the sun.
In addition to my previous comments, if there's actual demand this means that the NHS is currently paying a higher fee per delivery which should allow a private competitor to step in, undercut the current system (whether via drone deliveries or otherwise) and make a profit. It doesn't have to be limited to the NHS even - there are plenty of other applications that would benefit from faster & more flexible logistics powered by drones. Yet it isn't happening, suggesting the current system is already in its optimal state.
Man, apparently these founders have never heard of the Streisand effect. Very dumb move by them. I would never work for a company that sues whistle blowers like this.

It's impossible to deny that C++ is improving.

I tried wholeheartedly to migrate to using Joplin from apple notes so I could use a native client on more platforms than my phone + laptop, but it was frustrating in so many ways. S3 storage syncing frequently broke on the iOS app, simple auto-formatting insidiously defied my expectations, and it was very difficult to keep things organized without very explicitly labeling my notes (which I don't have to do with Apple notes, as you can see a preview of the text contained inside of the note). I'd love to revisit joplin in a few years when I have more time to tinker or contribute to the project, though.
Is it just me, or does anyone else find it a bit odd that neither this article nor Chevy itself talks about the number of seats or shows any image of the back seating area? I assume it must seat 5 but does anyone know for sure?
Really Getting Started with Hugo
I am very happy to see MD on the first page of HN, I can feel it's making a comeback! There's even new pre-recorded MD coming out. But don't look into it or you will end doing like me. I recently bought 3 different players and it's a bit absurd to pay that much for a lower quality of sound, but it does look cool.
He's only 54. John Williams is 90, and doing the score for the fifth Indiana Jones movie. When you have a career you love, it isn't work, it's what you exist to do. Romero is a natural talent, I'd say he's got a lot more in him yet.
Given that gunpowder was invented in the 9th century, fifth century fireworks were probably pretty uninteresting...

You generally need monitoring at a minimum, and maintenance to shore up degradation of any unstable containment materials (i.e. those used to prevent water leeching, etc).

Plus security. You need to keep people out- there's always going to be some idiot who wants to get too close or use it for Evil.

That said, I imagine the costs are far less than the alternatives. Rebuilding the grid to satisfy continental-wide wind will produce a lot of CO2.
I think that would happen in combination with the remote server replying "304 Not Modified"

Now that you mentioned it tho, I'm not sure whether developer tools is showing me the ground truth, how does it give me 200 OK from cache without asking the remote whether the resource has changed? My memory agrees with you, something has changed in the matrix.

When these designs were made, 40 °C in the UK was a once-in-5,000-years event. Now, it seems to be about 1 in 30 years (we don't have enough data to be sure).

Also, the problem usually isn't the 40-degree air temperature itself, because that's usually in the operating range--it's the rails and machinery and confined spaces hitting 60+ that fucks everything up.

New York considered shutting down its subways in July 2011 when it was "only" 40.5. Why? Because the underground stations were hitting 50, which (esp. in New York humidity) is dangerous for the most heat-sensitive people.

Article says the three components of going to a ballgame that have increased the most since 1960 are: parking (66x), soda (27x), and beer (19x).

Pretty wild. So a suggestion: The American family parks somewhere cheap, takes public transit to their favorite family outing, then consumes less soda and beer. Enjoy the ballgame in a better-than-1960 stadium, while also chipping away at an environmental and obesity situation that 1960 never knew!
That's 110g or one full pot of strong drip filter coffee per day. I think I typically drink 60g on a workday and 30g on a weekend day for an average of ~50g/day. I believe you, but you do drink quite a bit of coffee I must say!

There is this article from ArsTechnica talking about a lawsuit from the city of New York against chevron which describes the issue described by the OP https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2018/07/judge-dismisses-...

The direct quote from the complaint (found here on page 5: https://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/show_...) would be:

mid-1980s, Exxon and other major oil and gas companies,

roads in the warming Arctic)
I suspect it isn't common because of advertising (still) - at some point it may become an option but they'll want their advertising.

For MLB it was working explicitly because MLB.tv did NOT get advertising at all, during commercial breaks you could watch the cameramen wander around and look at the stands, heh.

There are also some that think that only God can control the weather, so if the world is warming that is His will; and that the end of the world is imminent, and will be the greatest moment in the history of the universe for the faithful.

I'd bet that probably 20% of the voter base believes exactly that, and that 10% think that not believing that should be grounds for deportation or imprisonment.

Of course the public was (and is!!) the culprit. Only the individual "footprint" is so small that almost nobody does something.

Real structural changes are hard to enforce. There is always something more pressing, just look e.g. at the 100 billion Germany spends on war (how many trees that would give?). As a politician it would be the end of the career if you tried to enforce something really drastic (and so nobody does it, incl. "the greens").
They built an extension to "escape Google's [recommendation] algorithm". They're clearly not talking here about privacy, they're talking about managing their own attention. Their implementation does fit their purpose.
Also, the Supreme Court recently curtailed the EPA overstepping its bounds to set regulation. In other words, regulatory authority is actually moving away from the government having the power to simply ban things.

Yeah, that's true. Expect that will change with the next set of new trains, as with the newish S Stock on the subsurface lines. Not all mainline trains have AC either, though I think it's been nearly universal on new trains from the 90s onwards.

>> This strange differentiation came about as a GOP talking point in the early 2000s.

Actually no, it comes from far earlier in our history that that, GOP may have had it has a talking point not sure, and dont really care, but the GOP is not the origination of this

>Saying the US is not a democracy but a constitutional republic is like saying a car is not an automobile.

No, not all Republics are democratic, and not all Democracy's are republics.

The US has every very very limited elements that are democratic, and at our founding even less so then today. At the founding only the House was democratic everything else was not. IMO we need to go back to that, less democracy would be good

In this thread on Germany I am surprised to read about Jane Fonda (who?).

The European perspective is most strongly influenced by movements starting post Chernobyl.

This happened not only in Germany but also in Sweden and other countries. In Germany, for some reason (please tell us you German HN users) this movement has had an outsized impact and not even Merkel could stop dismantlement of nuclear.

It shouldn't take a crisis to rethink things, but we are humans and so it does.

What is the German perspective?
People are right to trust science more than opinion.

However the media amplifies bad science to capitalize on narratives and make money.

Good news media is supposed to put things through a critical lens and explain to people things are currently a theory or just a small subset of a bigger picture... but they media has become click bait and unreliable.

They will take the tiniest shred of evidence and use that to make some wildly sensational claim.
That book was a helpful contribution to the debate when it was published in 2008, but by 2017 people were already pointing out[0] its obsolete assumptions about renewables, and there is now an open source collaborative effort to produce a more accurate and up-to-date version.[1]

I don't want to speak ill of the late great David MacKay, but it does seem that reality has exposed his pro-nuclear bias, which was already apparent[2] just from the choice of language he used when describing the different technologies.

I think this varies for every stadium right? some let you, some dont. Almost all are not advertising the fact that they let you if they do.
I use it daily for work, and my entire family uses it for our group chat. The codebase is still maintained. I adore the project. Zoom buying them was tragic considering zoom is one of the worst apps I have to use and Keybase is one of the best. I’m really glad they haven’t killed it yet!
I suspect that some of what your paying for at disney is all that advertisement they do.
