I never shared my account with anyone… I am the sole users and yet this policy would cost me money and issues! I travel way more than 2 weeks a year (in civilised countries like France I have 8 weeks of vacation a year)… plus I often visit my vacation home… don’t see why they should charge me for that (while I am on my vacation home there is nobody using Netflix at my place… there is always only one stream at a time)! So if they do put it in place where I live that can say goodbye to a very loyal customers (I subscribed 9 years ago)

Three of the four domains here are on sale, all have a pale blue pill with white text, two have a (i) logo, one of them is nonfunctional and can not be used as a domain name in the way that a customer would typically expect. It's an incredibly deceptive listing in the wider context, nothing about the way it is presented would make you even consider that what is being sold in that line is valueless for a normal use case of buying a domain name.

The "30 years away" thing assumed investment.

It's quite weird to think that seeing a potentially endless source of free energy we wouldnt be throwing a trillion dollars or so at it but thats humanity for you.

Scientists were similarly optimistic about space exploration after landing on moon shortly before NASA's budget dwindled.
Just tax everything the amount it costs to clean up the pollution it causes, then you can do whatever you want without a problem
Although almost all users just use a search engine. Actually typing in domains is dying (very slowly). I still do it occasionally for things written "in the real world" but this is slowly getting replaced with QR codes.

The last main thing that I use domains for is verification (is this really "google.com"?) but even that is 1. Not effective (yes, I am definitely "goog1e.com") and 2. Mostly replaced by my browser doing the check for me (for example via my password manager which only fills in credentials for the correct domain).
Yeah and as I read it I saw a guy called anonymous armadillo writing a section on how falling birth rates are due to the MeToo movement. Is this all just crowd sourced random guesswork with no evidence?

Because it sounds like a "pod living & insect protein" product. People strongly prefer natural light to "I can't believe it's not natural light".
You seem quite mistaken about what "caveat emptor" means ("buyer beware"). The person you're replying to means we should be cautious about using risky unregulated light boxes, which you would seem to agree with.
About Veritasium. These good stories with dubious claims and with "but I wasn't wrong!" and "at least I made you think" reactions is considered OK by most in the US for example. But in eastern parts of the world it is treated as a pure smartass behavior.
You're basically right about laser-driven fusion. But ultrafast mode-locking lasers do have other uses, such as X-ray generation [1]. And MagLIF is a derivative technology that should have a significantly better energy in/out ratio [2]. The big problem with all existing ICF concepts is their tendency to damage the facility (boom!), though.

Might be a nitpick, but there’s also the problem of what exactly we are calling a “serious commercial project”.

Right now the most successful game made with Godot Engine is Cruelty Squad (https://store.steampowered.com/app/1388770/Cruelty_Squad/). Regardless of if you would call it “professional” or not, it was one of the most noted indie games of 2021, had great reviews, and probably was much more commercially successful than your average Unity/Unreal “professional” indie title (given how so many of them flop). Same goes for some highly successful RPG Maker games, which usually people would not call it a “commercial-quality” engine.

I think there’s a lesson here: don’t care that much if you’re using a “commercial” quality engine or not, just care if the engine will give the right tools to make the game that you envision.
In the past, authors had to counter mysogyny and racism by lying about their gender or race. The only thing that has changed here is what the elites prefer.

It seems that when people get power, they abuse it to the detriment of others.

I'm not sure which learning material you used back then but this seems more like an unfortunate accident.

With .NET 6 SDK, 'dotnet new webapi' will give you a template project that does everything you listed save for extended validation logic which you can easily add with 'FluentValidation'.

In addition, to run ASP.NET Core nowadays you only need:

var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder();
var app = builder.Build();
app.MapGet("/posts/{name}", ([FromRoute] string name) => /* controller logic, classes will be serialized as JSON */);
await app.RunAsync("http://localhost:8080");
I want to very much second excluding Veritasium. Whenever he talked about something I was knowledgeable in, he made mistakes. This combined with branding himself as 'the element of truth' and the increasing over-clickbaity titles and thumbs made me stop watching him.

After a very long day playing poker, I walked into the Sky Ceiling area in the Venetian and had a really strong feeling that something was very wrong. (It was probably 2 AM, but the room is convincing enough to make it feel like late afternoon and the disconnect was strong enough that I had to leave the area.)
No, they are different gauges with shared historical roots (5ft was the original Russian gauge, 1520 mm late Soviet redefinition). While the tolerance ranges for the two gauges overlap, they're not identical, nor is either a superset of the other. Trains can be built to be interoperable, but are not guaranteed to.

And either way, these countries are in Europe by any definition and not on standard gauge.
Did you know it takes almost a hundred ms for a signal to go from your fingers to your brain? Did you know that the brain is constantly predicting the future to make up for its slow reaction time? Did you know even small computers are really really fast? If you did then you'd probably guess that initiatives like this are a waste of time and money. The difficulty is in the software, not the hardware, or the compute layer. With good algorithms our current crop of robots are already fully capable of producing trillions more in economic value than they do today.

We do not need hardware acceleration in robotics. Can we use it if it exists? Sure, but do we care about "democratizing" it? No.

There is a place for hardware acceleration in robotics that is making a huge difference and that's in simulation. GPUs, the once and future king, make training robust neural networks possible and fast. If you're an investor reading this who needs a reminder, bet on software.
Out of curiosity, what's the difference in runtime when compared to Andrew's optimized version on your machine?

This is literally what I'm saying and the main point I'm addressing in the second and third paragraph of the comment you are replying to.

However, you make a very good point with QR code: this is another argument for why the actual domain name is not that important.

Email/Usenet were fossilised the day they were born pretty much, we're still living with stupid fixed width lines of text in 2022, people just gave up on replying correctly, and no one could fix usenet spam.

Web apps have instant new version deployment, but are centralised, automatically updating docker containers are probably a half decent solution to a federated network.

The speed comparison is fascinating. Ruby often takes a hit in these parts for being slow, and the inference is usually versus Java, but hose numbers suggest they’re about the same? (Though I’m a big fan of Rails, it’s a criticism I acknowledge, as I came to it from PHP.) And people blithely never refer to JavaScript’s speed, but this is suggesting that it’s 50% slower than EITHER. My point is that the usual conversation about speed of languages seems to need some adjustment.
Depends in what part of the world you’re in. In Europe I wouldn’t really expect anyone to accept magstripe on card with a chip, but in the US it’s more common.

Additionally terminals can be configured to detect dodgy chips and automatically fall back magstripe, or a more basic form of processing. But your bank may block these transactions, because they can’t perform chargebacks on them, they’re considered as “secure/good as” Chip and PIN transactions by the card network for merchants in some parts of the worlds (e.g. the US). So if a fraudulent transaction was performed that way, the bank would have to eat the entire cost themselves.

Probably because his current judicial situation is, to say the least, messy. That made a lot of the interest in him vanish for a lot of people. So prob thats why you haven't seen him mentioned.
They probably do, but those still are valid PINs, that some banks probably don’t block.

So what does it look like? We only have crummy black-white EM images, that look like any dead cell debris to me.

It was easy, I did it most of my life. It's much harder to question my beliefs, but maybe that's something you have less experience with.

> Why is it so hard to believe viruses exist? (2)

Because they have never been truly isolated. While other bio particles of similar size have.
Interesting! Perfectly fits my question.
Pumped hydro is usually considered the best way to do this. Basically, you pump water from the bottom of the dam back up to the top. This is great because you probably already wanted most of the infrastructure for hydroelectric power; the pumps are a relatively inexpensive addition once you have that. There are other techniques, but pumped hydro is generally what you'll see for this reason.

Flywheels are also pretty good short term, but supercapacitors mostly do their job better these days. That said they are competitive, and technological changes could nudge them into more use. Just making your wind turbine really large gives a flywheel effect, e.g., so again if you already have a spinning thing they are often worth it.
That's a bit of a stretch, I can barely see the milky way on a new moon, but I'm 60 miles from Dublin and near a town of 20,000.

It'll be gone soon, though. All these blue LED street lights are a scourge.
There is something fundamentally flawed in the maintenance cost of the Deutsche Bahn. According to the Deutschen Instituts für Wirtschaftsforschung (DIW) it's costing the Deutsche Bahn 312,000€ per year to maintain a single kilometer of rail tracks. Given that and the already high subsidies of 10 billion € just to keep DB running, any kilometer additional track built is just increasing that hole.

I feel we are in a shit triangle here. Ticket prices are too high <-> quality is too low <-> overall cost is too high. There have been ongoing attempts to fix this by increasing rider amounts but at Germanys population density it's impossible to ever get even near to Japanese levels [2] of low total kilometers built with high usages. After my interpretation of things there is some innovation necessary to bring the per KM cost down before the Deutsche Bahn can play a more important role in the transportation.

On the same coin the cost of public transport for families vs. car ownership is just ridiculous. I've got a family of 5 - For every German intercity route going by car is significantly cheaper than going by train - usually 5x cheaper but often more. Same is true for traveling within a city that isn't your hometown (where you might have a monthly ticket). At this point I'm not even sure whether this is a problem that can be solved socioeconomicly.

I feel electric cars, robotaxis and in the future electric planes are much more likely to solve the larger part of of transportation than that railway is going to do it. Especially given that building another set of rails now in Germany is going to take from planning to delivery 15 years. The change of technology should be planned in.

It sounds like you never actually spent any time reading anything by people who dispute popular narratives on climate change. If you did you'd know that nothing you just said is true. They frequently prove the points they're making, often via reference to climatologist's own papers, and it's not mere contrarianism but rather is pointing out places in which their science either isn't reliable or is being misrepresented.

Look at it this way. In the past few days HN has had a bunch of submissions on the news that a major paper in Alzheimer's research appears to be entirely fraudulent. It was noticed by outside "deniers", not any scientists within the field itself, and the science based on it went 16 years and received hundreds of millions of dollars in NIH funding. All based on some dodgy Photoshops, or so it appears.

When people argue with climatology and (often) absurd media claims that aren't even well connected to published science to begin with, they're usually arguing about actual, concrete problems with what scientists are doing. To believe that it's all mere contrarianism and propaganda is the sort of naive "Believe The Science!"-ism that has trashed trust in public health in the past two years, and worse, created a culture in which researchers think that they can get away with anything.

> The difference between the shootout microbenchmarks and the TechEmpower benchmarks is that the former test computation-intensive tasks and the latter test an end-to-end web backend example.

That proves my point even further, because I don't develop anything remotely web-related, hence that performance scenario is completely moot for me.

> What's so good about MS ranking in the TechEmpower benchmarks is that it's the fastest full-featured "enterprise" framework.

Again, the same because the software I develop is not "Enterprise" either.

What I develop is scientific software, and needs to be extremely performant. In my case C++ is the best language, but it's not the best for every case. This is why I also learn Go and use Python for other tasks.

In my case, Debian's benchmarks are directly related to my use cases, however even that's not a definitive measurement for my case. It's just a bunch of data to keep in mind.
There have been many great suggestions, but I am surprised at the lack of:

Show HN: Brainfuck interpreter using TypeScript types

It supports all brainfucks commands, but might not cover some edge cases/have bugs.

This happens for many reasons: abandoned industrial areas, location that came out of fashion, people moving to cheaper places, etc.

Don’t Pause the Gas Tax, Redirect It
I'm 30 and I've lived in the city my whole live. Occasionally I'll go on holiday to more rural places, but until last year I had never visited a Dark Sky area.

Last year I spent a few nights in a converted barn in the middle of rural Pembrokeshire and for the first time in my life saw what the real night sky should look like.

I had fairly high expectations going into it and thought it would be cool to see so many stars in the sky, but I didn't anticipate the emotional reaction it would have on me.

When you live in the city it's not just light pollution that's unnatural, but also the noises and scenery you become accustomed to. Road noises, planes, and human voices are basically a constant in the city. It's also rare you'll ever find yourself in a place where you're not surrounded by concrete and other artificial structures. The impact of human civilisation isn't just evidenced by the night sky, but the smells of the city, the concrete you stand on, the artificial noises and sights, etc.

Beyond just the night sky there's something special about just being in a place that's so remote. Especially if you're like me and have never truly experienced being that remote before. Everything feels off, but also right at the same time. It's weird. Then there's the night sky, which is crazy. Stars stop becoming points of light which your eyes can focus on, but basically a blanket covering the entire sky. It's forces you to look at the sky in a way that's completely new, and in a way that forces you appreciate it's size and vastness.

Dark Sky areas are great, but I think for more than just appreciating the night sky. They're also a great way to appreciate nature and it's beauty. It's a full sensory experience and one that might be a little surprising or even overwhelming if you're lived in the city your entire life.
