You are trying to solve the problem of lack of water to existing people who live there. The problem at the core is the area is arid and infertile. You are trying to solve the immediate problem instead of the root cause.

Fundamentally altering these areas will not only solve the immediate problem but cause economic growth and solve a myriad of other problems like food shortages, homelessness,etc... you are talking about the equivalent of repairing roads, I am suggesting building the equivalent of the interstate highways which were until recently the biggest spending ever and resulted in the biggest economic growth ever.
I'm kind of coasting myself (not being a leader/taking anything big on). What I like it about it is, I can leave work at work after work and focus on my own things that are more challenging.

At the moment I burned money/got into a lot of debt trying to get a start up going. When that failed I just grabbed the first job/company that gave me an offer. I'm not that pumped about what I do but I can deal with it for now. Pay is still good for my level (low six figs) and it's 100% remote.
> Manipulating the public and business associates in order to become worth 200+ billions of dollars

It's not about manipulation and more riding an already existing wave. The tsunami of environmentalism, green everything etc.

Real bona fide manipulation is all about convincing people that YOU are the solution to each and every of their problem.

It entails jokes, touching people, pointing at people, blowing kisses, smiling a lot, playing an instrument. Most of all it has to be speeches, delivered from a stage.

Think Obama, Bill Clinton, George Bush, Reagan, Trump...

I can't take Musk seriously because he cannot speak properly. When you are a leader you cannot hide behind the bird app forever. At some point you have to go out there and hold hold the crowd in your palm like the Beatles and Led Zeppelin used to do. That to me is social skill.
Or perhaps someone can setup an email system primarily for the benefit of public library users. Run it as a non-profit / low-profit and provide basic support, do not require 2-factor authorization. Basically the way email was for many in the late 1990s, when they got email through their schools or universities, or perhaps through AOL or Compuserve.

Sorry, but I can't take seriously any list that starts off with Clean Code.
Firstly, it doesn't seem likely that we'll see a major change in the next three months, but for the sake of argument, let's roll with it for a sec. Let's say there's some big change, I guess I'm having trouble imagining a change in military situation in the next 3 months that would change the situation for Germany. Ukraine kicks Russia out and Russia decides to restore gas to Germany? Russia decisively takes more of Ukraine... and somehow all sanctions are dropped?

It’s more that the word science has been redefined.

People confuse their own preference with science. Also, because preference is political, what to research and what science is focused on is a political question.

Just noting that the statement in question is not only a valid proposition in intuitionistic logic, but also in classical logic. That's not really surprising, as classical logic can prove everything that intuitionism can prove, but it deserves to be called out, as it otherwise might seem more sophisticated than it is for people unfamiliar with the finer details of proof systems.

I finished up my PhD in scattering amplitudes recently. I checked out the abstract of this paper, and it certainly looks like an interesting result and will likely be the basis for new results in the field. For perspective, I estimate that there are a few such results in the field per year which could have roughly the same quanta magazine article written about them.
Wow this is awesome! We have been building similar pipelines on top of CognitoForms but this is a much easier fit.
Taiwan is lost in terms of defending it from any Chinese invasion. The US has been on the other end of proxy wars with China (Vietnam, Afghanistan, Korea) and has not managed to win one of them, and Ukraine is a big mess for everyone involved, and the US will not be deeply involved in the future. Hong Kong is a good example of the limitations of defending Taiwan.
Which doesn't work.
Nothing about their advice is specific to the role of parenting itself, but more about perspective on life choices in general. If they were telling you how to be a parent, sure, but there's nothing wrong with trying to learn from each other's experiences.

Not having kids may afford some advantages in some circumstances, but in my experience, the decision is often made for reasons that most people don't see, and not just because of career goals. I know plenty of parents and non-parents, and if there's one thing I can say about non-parents, rarely is career progression a sufficient form of purpose / satisfaction in life. Most parents I know would never trade their decision to have kids for a slightly faster trip up a career ladder, but that faster trip isn't necessarily real either.

I'm in my mid 30s, and I personally will never have kids. I made this choice partially because of the environment I grew up in, where I was a defacto parent for younger siblings for most of my formative years. I love my siblings, but simply put, I'm done parenting, and have enough of my own baggage I'm still dealing with after that experience. This baggage is heavy enough that work is still a struggle. I may appear unencumbered to those around me, but that doesn't automatically equate to more bandwidth to advance my career.

I've found career success, yes, but not because I don't have kids. If anything, my career focus impeded my personal growth, so I'm working on that in my 30s.

Ultimately it's a tradeoff, and while some people may occasionally find themselves at an advantage in some way, it's unclear if this is an advantage to aspire to, or if it leads to any improvement in life satisfaction.

If there's one thing I can say, it's that work and career progression isn't really what it's cracked up to be, and isn't "enough" for long.
Why? I have heard it recommended but I haven't read much of it.
> but that's a testament to Apple's integration engineering and not the underlying technology.

So no one outside of apple is smart enough to get it working.

What bothers me about non apple stuff is. I can pair my AirPods to my phone, tv, and laptop. Even if they connect to the laptop if I press connect on the Apple TV or phone they switch.

With any non apple headphones. (Bose, Audio-Technica, Sony, Asus) I have to press Bluetooth pairing button and connect on the decide again. So switching between two laptops is a pain.

Why can’t other brands do what apple can? It’s not the tech problem when someone solves it…

In all seriousness, some of us write code targeting several different microcontrollers and many vendors decided to roll their own toolchain instead of just adding a new GCC backend.

I think a majority of people don't unsubscribe; they just mark your emails as spam and ignore them. That lowers your credibility with email providers, and if that happens enough, you start seeing your emails being considered as spam and you get entirely blocked off the ISP.

Also, it may be a mistake to attribute all of your revenue from the email to email. By its nature, emails are going to the segment of your audience most interested and most likely to purchase. Only a portion of revenue from it is actually incremental; a large part probably would have ordered anyway, and the email gets credit only because they're also clicking through the email.

Of course, it depends on what offers are in the email, etc. If you want to test, the best bet is as was mentioned elsewhere in this thread, segment out a set of customers and change the frequency of emails over the long term, and track their total sales.

Show HN: Stories by AI, fiction written with GPT-3 and illustrated with DALL-E 2
Hi HN!

I and a couple of friends finally launched a project that's been kicking around since late last year: Stories by AI

The spark of the idea was actually inspired by another Show HN ("I had some time yesterday so I made a GPT3 podcast to help you sleep" https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29428910). With the emergence of nice tools for co-writing fiction with GPT-3, I really liked the idea of publishing a bunch of short fiction where the AI largely did the writing. I still find the surreal fever-dream esque weirdness of language models really entertaining, and hope we can capture that in story form. And now these weird stories can be illustrated with DALL-E 2, which adds another layer to the fun.

It took a while, but today we are launching our substack newsletter and podcast! The podcast has audio versions of the stories made with Text to Speech, of course.

That's about it, would love to hear your feedback / thoughts about this.
If you're willing to be a beta tester - I'll set you up with a free account (see about[0]); I'm open to suggestions/implementing new features based on user demand (e.g. Slowdown as a Service).

And yet for all the scepticism about renewables it has almost caught up with nuclear in a much shorter time.

But my wider point is that we need to be more consistent in how we apply scepticism and optimism to different technologies. In some dimensions that gives a benefit to nuclear and in others the benefit is with renewables or storage.

Batteries are more expensive than the power itself.

Pumped hydro is severely capacity limited and is likewise limited by available water--even if you have a place to pump it you have to have spare water to pump there. Realistically, pumped hydro exists to allow powering up slower generators, not as a meaningful energy storage.

Show HN: DeSci – The Future of Research
I'd argue that WeWork's strategy was a disaster itself. FOMO into disasters is one thing, FOMO - AFAIK, was not a WeWork strategy.
Very true. Growing up in the 1970s, we did not have a computer. I wrote papers and reports for school using a typewriter. We did not have a microwave. We did not have a dishwasher. We had a 14" TV. Home music system was a record player. No video games at home. The phone was mounted on the wall, provided by the phone company, shared by everyone in the house. We were very much middle class, my parents were probably more frugal than most but this was pretty typical of all my friends.
ADHD here at a higher level of disability. It's way more than a different mode of thinking. It's crippling and the reason I can barely function in any work setting. Medication and therapy throughout my life, since I was 2, only got me to this level. Without it I'd of probably been dead years ago from just following every impulse and getting myself in situations where I'm way over my head and way too stressed to deal with anything.
The problem is with forests you destroy existing wildlife and climate change is a big deal. You want more trees not less. Transofrming the west adds more trees (good for climate), economic growth, less food shortage, homelessness and indirectly less social unrest and instability as well. It will solve many problems because it addresses a root cause of many problems: lack of resources and opportunity. Water+Space+renewable power is the answer.

Thanks.

In development since 1983, the camo saw no use in the field until it was deployed during the first Gulf War (1990-1991).

The purpose was to disrupt primitive Soviet-era night vision. The grid pattern was intended to interfere with the generated grid used by these devices for targeting.

Even after plenty of research I could find no cases of this pattern ever disrupting anything. By the early 90’s, night vision technology had progressed greatly and this green grid was completely ineffective. There is even some anecdotal evidence it made detection easier!

Pirated books thrive on Amazon – and authors say web giant ignores fraud
This comment is sort of funny, because the author says that Google is being responsive but is upset at the army of HN commenters (plus the guy who posted this originally.)
You nailed it.

In the physical goods world, there is no company that is allowed to dump products onto market and pretend like their customers do not exist. If their product cause harm to the consumer, their products will get recalled or they'd get sued.

Google has somehow allowed itself to infinitely scale their users but also infinitely shrink their liabilities/duty by binding all users to their ToS which foists arbitration on all of them.

> The expression was then always in the form of 'give someone the razzle-dazzle', that is, confuse them. The earliest use that I can find of that sense of 'razzle-dazzle' is the US newspaper The Saint Paul Globe, April 1885:

>> Sir: As you seem to be in earnest in your efforts to give someone the dazzle-dazzle... [I think that's a typo and the original source is indeed razzle-dazzle as being discussed!]

> The expression very quickly came to be used with a more positive intent, that is, where 'razzle-dazzle' was considered to be indicate enjoyment rather than deception. That's found in the Pennsylvania newspaper The Daily Republican, June 1887:

>> A meeting at City Hall resolved to celebrate the Fourth [of July] by a general old-time razzle-dazzle.

I ran a newsletter for https://maxrozen.com in the lead up to releasing a book on React's useEffect hook, for about a year.

It was no extra work, since I was writing articles anyway, so this gave me another channel to let folks know a new article was out.

When I eventually released the book, email subscribers were 5x as likely to buy the book than people coming in via Google search.

Effectively, it's about building an audience to sell to, and it works.
That's cool. There's also a whole Unix-like OS built from scratch using Rust: Redox OS.
I have to admit I minced words, I meant "if we magically had an utopian society tomorrow that would let us agree on a goal and work optimally towards that goal". I didn't want to open the can of worms whether an utopian or "good communist" society is possible, as I think many people here would say it is not - I think some fundamentally "better" society than the current world-wide system is possible and neccessary to have a chanche of dealing satisfyingly with climate change, but I don't know how that would look like of course.

I agree political centralization would be a bad thing. For one, the peripheral will suffer the most from climate change. A society that calls itself utopian in my mind should be decentralized and allow political freedoms.

But anyway, it is just a thought experiment - can any ideal society beat climate change in our lifetimes?
