Some US suburbs put them in park areas, I live in Palo Alto where there are a number of such community gardens.

In bigger cities there have been various community garden projects, but they often are wildcat projects using vacant lots and constantly facing eviction by property owners to avoid insurance and adverse possession claims.
Sure, you may not have heard of it. But it is a thing that can happen and is not possible to fix without changing (i.e. breaking) the API. X11 does not have a mechanism to fix it, that was never added.
This whole exchange is hilarious.
Yes, router on a stick. :) I don't have a gigabit internet connection, but it should not be a huge issue for your typical unidirectional download or upload even on a gigabit. Ethernet is full-duplex, so you'll be able to saturate either direction (just not at once).
My understanding is that Cook was never meant to be an innovator, he was a supply chain expert that also has the experience and skills to run a company the size of Apple. Replacing Jobs was never going to happen. Apple navigated the 2020 supply chain crisis almost flawlessly.

As far as innovation goes TC seems to have delegated pretty well so far. The AirPods and Apple Watch innovation were future changing. More recently Apple’s M1 line may not be future changing but absolutely shows Apple’s willingness to take risks while innovating.

Would everything likely be better if Jobs was still around? I think so. But he’s not and I’d rather not have some pseudo-Jobs CEO taking risks he probably shouldn’t.
> Anyone who has ever trained a dog or other animal knows how to use animal psychology / punishments / rewards to change the animal's behavior.

Use of punishment in dog training is actually pretty hotly debated. Not that it doesn't work, but that it has consequences beyond what are intended and that substitution, redirection, and rewards result in a happier and more obedient pet.
Now the other end of that tunnel still uniquely identifies you. It helps in some adversary models, but not many or all.

I work for the Navy. The Naval Research Lab where Tor and onion routing was started. I wrote a FAQ to respond to these concerns on Reddit here[0]. AMA if you want.

> There was a study I read over the last year, maybe it was posted on here, that said we mostly seek revenge out of spite not deterrence.

It's easy to imagine that it's personally for spite, but evolutionarily for deterrence (i.e., spite is an evolutionarily effective way to encode deterrence).
I’m sorry but people in general aren’t critical thinkers — broadcasting false and misleading communication should be avoided since it’s extremely dangerous. See the storming of the Capitol Building. It’s especially dangerous when that communication is meant to undermine your country and what your country stands for.
there's a fair amount of fud in there. I was curious if they supported python and it says they compile the python to Javascript.

So, this is not really a product except for a limited user base: people writing web function. Much of cloud computing that is now hosted in containers is batch work (ML training, HPC jobs) that depends on a combination of dependencies, access to hardware, and a complex multithreading runtime.

Users of Lambda have demonstrated that it can do matrix multiplication at supercomputer throughput rates.

I wouldn't mind the post so much but it badly misreprents the nature of containers in cloud computing and does so in a way that makes me not want to be their customer.
Yeah, I don't reboot the macbook more than once every many weeks so it's not a big deal or anything. On the other hand, my super speedy linux doesn't quite know how to hibernate right, while the macbook does and wakes up again like a champ--like instantly. You win some and lose some.
Punishment is actually not my intented point, it's having negative repercussion for a large class of antisocial behaviour.

Being rude and verbally abusive in many situations for instance gives you a stricly positive outcome, from a game theory perspective. I'm arguing to add something in the mix to make that outcome negative, and corporal punishment and shaming are the only things I can see.
I wrote a thesis for my bachelor's regarding the development of an agent-based simulation framework in Rust where I managed the visualization side. The project takes inspiration from other frameworks such as MASON (in particular for the architecture), NetLogo, Agent.jl and others. I initially developed the visualization subsystem with Amethyst, after my thesis Amethyst was discontinued and, since I was already following Bevy since it went public and it looked like it was gaining a lot of momentum, I refactored our framework to switch to Bevy. Our project is open source: https://github.com/krABMaga/krABMaga . Being my first approach to Rust and my first serious greenfield project, I think there are a lot of parts which can be improved, but I was able to get by with my extremely limited knowledge of both Rust and Bevy and obtain decent results. The things I loved the most of Bevy was the low amount of boilerplate code needed, the WASM+WebGL support which allowed me to easily let guests run simulations from our github.io site (https://krabmaga.github.io/) at near native (sequential) performance and, just like the whole Rust ecosystem, the friendliness of the community. Even though I bothered quite a bit on the Discord server since the documentation wasn't the clearest for me back when I started (Bevy 0.5), both the team members and users always led me a hand. I also think the ECS approach is extremely useful for our usecase, by defining agents as entities with the Agent component, along with a system which acts as an event loop by executing a simulation step and triggering the agents' behaviour rules.
I also noticed the Bevy team might be interested in the simulation field (https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/1678), I am sure more projects of this kind would be hugely appreciated!
It's harder to lose your metaphorical nuclear fuel tank than your metaphorical nuclear bullet I guess.
Note that the reactor vessel doesn't generate electricity, but steam. You need a turbine to make it useful. Once you include that, it doesn't look quite as miniature[0]. As far as I can tell, these aren't targeted at anything other than utility-scale power.

It's Google but yes, another instance of Embrace, Extend and Extinguish.

I hope this doesn't take off, with my sincere apologies to the ones who have been working hard on this. The last thing the C/C++ ecosystem needs is becoming de facto owned by a private company.
I haven't used Elixir enough to be particularly confident in an opinion about it. However, Phoenix appears to have a similar design to many other MVC frameworks, and if a conventional design works for a language, there's less need to experiment. Initial development can converge around something that's tried and tested.

A conventional framework doesn't fit Clojure particularly well, so the community has been forced to tread new ground to figure out what works with the language.

That was a new one for me. I sort of understood the reference but the Jeff Atwood post [0] where it's introduced is as relevant today as it was when this was published in 2008.

A single core is able to load less memory per second than the whole cpu because there is a limited number of resources per core for loading memory.
Then think about it from the inverse. People who cannot organize other aspects of life with elegance and simplicity, such as business administration or personnel engagement, are likely equally (un)skilled in their organization of the software they write. The only difference is in the criticality of the feedback and/or the audience.
It depends on the situation, but if you’re likely to encounter the person who attacked you again, or others who might attack you, and they all become aware that you won’t fight back or get revenge in some other way, letting it slide could be the more dangerous option.

If it’s a random stranger, someone you won’t encounter again, or you live in a society where violence is very rare, then it’s probably a moot point.

We evolved in small tribes where everyone knew everyone, and just about everything that happened would quickly be known by the whole group. Combine that with scarcity and a higher propensity for violence, and being seen as an easy target would be something to avoid at all costs.

I don’t think the US military is a positive example of safe usage of nuclear. First the Hanford nuclear site in Washington is one of the most polluted site in the entire state. The cleanup effort is the regions biggest employer and is costing the local communities, the state, and the federal government millions of dollars every year.

The Bikini Atoll in the Marshall islands is one of the most polluted places in the pacific ocean. The US military conducted nuclear testing around there and simply swept the pollution in one place. There are dozens of reports of cancer from both former military personnel an nearby local population. And concerns are rising with elevated sea level that pollution will be leaking at greater pace then currently.

These are just two examples of the US military neglecting safety concerns with their nuclear technology. There is no single spectacular event like the Chernobyl disaster. But rather decades of neglect and disregard to public safety which polluted many areas leaving potentially an overall damage on par—and potentially greater—then the Chernobyl disaster.
>We had a pipe break and start to flood the sub, but that wasn't nuclear related.

That sounds absolutely terrifying. How did you guys end up fixing it?

>In the shipyard we had an incident where the neutron detector pegged high but it was determined to be caused by TIG welding.

Neat! :)
University need to do something about it real quick, otherwise their diplomas will not be worth anything.

I'd be suspicious having to install any extension using developer mode. Does this limit itself to reading data on those specific sites, or does it want access to everything?

Note it is not available in either the Microsoft store or Chrome extension store.
Those numbers are phenomenal, hard to believe to be honest. Tesla owners, testing their Tesla's to publish results in a pro Tesla publication isn't exactly what I'm looking for. There must be scientific measurements writeups of these issues.
So by that logic, the government could benefit society by selling credit card numbers and fake identities, by executing ransomware attacks, creating open marketplaces for military weapons, and creating a GitHub for espionage documents.
Calling convention? That's the most exciting feature? It doesn't boost productivity, reduce compile times, offer a larger standard library or create a boost a reasonable language would provide?

No thanks google. I've been saying that for years now. You jumped the shark
>I never understood the argument nuclear power is so "dangerous".

Oil companies paid to form that opinion in the public.

>no Chernobyl

Chernobyl was the result of a HIGHLY unauthorized, and stupid experiment... phenomenally stupid. So many red flags were driven past at high speed.
I think it would only be an issue due to backing down to Chinese pressure. I don’t think anyone would have cared if she never planned a visit or if she visited.
> Do you genuinely not understand that these animals are bred for humans consumption? They wouldn't exist otherwise.

In the United States we actually destroyed an equivalent biomass of Bison and replaced them with cattle. Though perhaps you celebrate the Bison eradication, too.
Sufficient for what?

You are making assumptions and otherwise fail to realize that a lifetime diet has more impact than can be understood with a contrived, likely biased, study designed to find the answer sought.

Inuits lived primarily on whale blubber. It's entirely possibly to live on a diet nearly devoid of nutrition. No I won't provide you with a study. It is evident from the modern western diet of processed foods
What are the "missing or rotting libraries"? Maybe a few examples might be helpful. In my over 10 years of using Clojure in production, I am not sure I have "re-implemented" a lot of logic that are not already covered by some Clojure libraries. Such examples are rare.

Sure, I have used Java interop for working with Stripe, but that's because it is futile to maintain a 3rd party Clojure library if Stripe decided not to do it themselves. These proprietary APIs are constantly changing. It is perfectly OK to do Java interop in these cases. Any niche language will have the same problem, and Clojure interop with Java is quite pleasant to use, compared with using Java itself.

As far as I can tell, using ring and related things are fairly standard on the server side, and re-frame and related things are fairly standard on the client side, so I am honestly not sure what is missing for Web development in Clojure, as Web development is the most common use case of Clojure.

I am honestly confused.
It is an information arm of the Russian government. Restricting direct actions of other government on your territory is a well established international practice.

Europe doesn't ban [dis]information from Russia (until of course it violates specific laws of a given country against say inciting violence, propaganda of genocide, etc.)
In high volume test and repair environments this exists, but part of how they can do it is they erase and overwrite the data on the phone. When you don’t care about the users data this becomes much easier. Data migration is a pain. (Esp when it’s not yours)
unique_ptr is nearly overhead free compared to a bare pointer (except for argument passing... because of ABI concerns).

shared_ptr is expensive and easy to build leaks with, so a lot of code bases avoid it where possible. Though it's only expensive when you copy it, moving it is ~free.
When I was a wee lad it occurred to me that there was a choice before me : to imitate or not to imitate.

Society is largely composed of people imitating each other. Imitation is membership. Imitation is moral. Imitate effectively and your future is bright.

These hikkomoris are making a choice.
I'm not sure how you can say there's no science to back this up. Livestock are accounted for as contributing nearly 15% of greenhouse gas emissions. And since so much pasture is cleared by razing old growth forest the cost may be even higher. And aside from their primary contribution, livestock place a lot of strain on water resources which are dwindling due to climate change. I'm not anyone has bothered computing the result of a world without livestock because it's so improbable but it would certainly be very significant.

[..]Once the first woman becomes president, men will have trouble even getting the party nomination, former President Gerald Ford predicted.

Ford, speaking Wednesday with 100 schoolchildren, predicted that a woman would be elected vice president soon on either the Republican or Democratic ticket."The president will die, and the woman will become president," said Ford. "I think it will probably come some time in the next eight years."

Ford said that once a woman breaks through to the highest office in the land, it will mark a new era. "Once that barrier is broken, men had better be careful because they will have a hard time even getting the nomination."[..]

Importantly ethanol can be transported over vast distances and stored for long periods of time, both incredible and persistent challenges for electricity.
With the risk of being unpopular I have to admit I have found what I've read of Popper to be seriously overrated. So far I have gone through The Open Society... and the better part of The Logic of Scientific Discovery.

Open Society to me read mostly like a critique of the political philosophy of Plato, Hegel and Marx, with brief mentions of what the open society is actually supposed to be (I recall some mentions of social engineering and other such things). At best it felt like a grounding for the currently dominant neo-liberal social order.

The Logic... on the other hand does seem to bring novel content, but I feel the core of his endeavor is hopeless. Science definitely doesn't and can't work in a perfectly coherent algorithmic way. Science is a human social process that can't be subjected to a strict methodology. On this front I think Lakatos or even Kuhn are much closer to how things can/do work.
Not really. Gender norms are being challenged pretty much everywhere. They certainly are in the Islamic world, in East Asia (including China), and in South America, which is most of the world.

Just because they didn't change in the same way or magnitude as they did in the West as of now doesn't mean they aren't being challenged - they very much are.
> Yet another to the improvement in the seismic sensors and technology used.

This is a huge one. Almost all of that geoseismic downhole sensing technology uses radioactive emissions. In 1940, it was impossible to "see" anything downhole with any reliability. Nowadays it's passe.

It still blows my mind that a sub only needs to refuel once every 15 years.

One of the things making this possible is 90+ percent enrichment of U235 in the fuel. That's weapons grade and won't fly in a civilian reactor. I haven't read NuScale's application in great detail but I'd be surprised if they used anything above 5 percent.
But making and installing a significant number of them before winter temperatures hit seems extremely hard.
it gets even more fun if you think about what people are actually paying for.

For instance, do you charge for the overhead of the Ethernet frame? What about additional size thanks to tunneling/encapsulation?

One could argue that no, you should not charge a customer for that because that is part of local transport inside a layer 2 domain, which is not in control of the customer.

But what about things like MPLS labels?
you could go and on and on..
Making a command line interface that outputs binary is even worse than a text stream, because then it cannot be used interactively at all, and that defeats the whole purpose of a command line user interface. At that point you are making tools for programmers, and are better off letting them reach for a real programming language and an API.

See my other comment about impedance mismatch for an explanation of the challenges with using command lines to remotely administer GUI desktops. It can be something that complements GUI administration, but can never possibly supplant it, because if you do that then you're intentionally trying to route around the problem space.
Sure, I don't intend to dispute that at all. There are also cloud-based apps that absolutely could not be, and at least part of the reasoning is probably to make it easier to charge a subscription fee.

I think the model's seen as being more lucrative, so even businesses that don't inherently need it so much try to find a way to adopt it.

They’re pretty common. I don’t own one personally, but lots of people have laptops with no full-size HDMI port. For them the dongle is necessary to make the laptop usable.
This comment is sarcasm, right? Perhaps becoming a billionaire is out of reach, but growing your portfolio by 5-20% annually is highly likely, as opposed to -100% growth via lottery tickets.
Seem to me that if your phone can't even boot up, then repair mode is moot, the repair person won't be able to log into your account to access your private info. Even after the phone is operational they still won't be able to run anything without you putting in your password. I think this is more for the situation where the repair person asks you to log in so they can verify that the phone is fully working. You'll want to expose as little sensitive data as possible.

I do think you have a point though. If you sent in a non-functional phone, and now it's in the shop being fixed, but the repair person needs to do a detailed check of the phone's operation, how can that be done safely without you being present? Maybe there could be a "repair mode password" that you can give out remotely and only allows the phone to enter repair mode.
Unless you're only using built-in laptop keyboard/trackpad, why is that limiting. It's USB compatible with pretty much any 3rd party. I have a full size Mac keyboard with 10-key and home/end/del/pageUp/pageDown. I hate not having it. So I'm not sure why you're unable to use the same. I do agree on their mice being a bit lacking, but again, any mouse can be used. It's not like you have to have Dell mouse with your Dell comp. Gamers all use different mice, so why the hate on a peripherial?

Ask HN: 40K in 2004 – 529 College Plan for my daughter in 2004
My grandmother recently passed. She started a 529 college savings plan for my daughter born in 2004.

My grandmother recently passed, I gained control/access to the account.

She put $40,000 in the account in 2004 with Smith Barney. After they went out of business for fraud, American Funds took over the account.

Since 2004, they took $40,000 and turned it into $70,000

This seems like criminal financial malfeasance to me.

I's like some input. I have transferred the account to me as owner, but I havent moved funds.

What do.

Any recourse, aside from the phone call with American Funds ghetto call center with people who had zero financial acumen, but were supposedly managing daughters account.

Using the same tropey dialog "im sorry you feel that way sir"

Then putting holds on funds for days due to me updating the mailing address for the account.

Do I have any recourse due to the utter failure of these orgs?
