Why not just ask for a notarized letter? Its about the same difficulty to forge, but won't require users to drive across the country.
Some "Hey Social Media/HN, shame Google for me!" posts are legitimate hardships, but this one is... cringeworthy.

For one, OP needs to spell "articles" properly. Imagine your app getting featured with an important word in the description being wrong.
Living in Europe, most people just leave fallen leaves alone. I've never seen someone use a leaf blower except for dust etc. Is it a uniquely American thing to obsess over tidying up leaves?
Of course it's an interesting idea, but the idea hasn't been fully had yet. "A variety of checklists to prove you're the rightful owner" doesn't actually mean anything without some examples of what the checklists are going to be.

Put another way, what does "security through obscurity" refer to? Why do we only use cryptographic methods that are totally explained, rather than those that keep their procedure secret?
I don't think so? I set one up last night and it waited for me to change my DNS. My domain was through them, so it happened automatically, but there was nothing saying it had to be.
> ""No response received from server XYZ after N seconds" is both more accurate and more informative."

Like those news articles which breathlessly report "nobody from the company was immediately available for comment" as if that was as interesting or relevant as a comment would have been. It isn't. Wait a couple of minutes and call them back, then report what they said. Imagine you call Comcast callcenter about your account and the conversation goes:

You: "I ordered xyz deal it but I'm still seeing the old price, can you help?"

Employee: "Sure, will you hold while I check that on the computer?"

You: "Yeah, ok"

pause

Employee: "No response received from computer after 15 seconds. Click {hangs up} bzzzzzzzzzzzz".

You: "that was accurate and informative, thumbs up"
As much as journalists like to point to their high standards for fact checking, journalistic integrity, and off-the-record handling, I’m always surprised that the practices in this article remain so mainstream. Even basic links to original studies or reporting sources would make a world of difference.

I’ve noticed that a lot of Substack authors have embraced these same practices but to a less subtle extreme. In fact, a lot of the Substacks I’ve tried to get into read like they’re just reporting on what actual journalists are reporting on. One particularly popular Substack among engineers frequently just parrots good reporting from The Information (a paywalled source), even including large excerpts from The Information in between summaries of the rest of the article. It feels like I’m just reading The Information but through someone else’s eyes, as shared on their Substack in pursuit of more subscribers.

Generally speaking, I find that I get the best information when I stop reading summary articles and move up a step to the information source. When I read an article summarizing a scientific paper and then read the actual paper, there is almost always some major discrepancy between what the paper authors claim and what the journalist claims.
I wonder if this is similar in other countries.
Whatever Mirai tanks are made of.
Hydrogen is such a pain to deal with.

I think we’re better off converting it to methane and then using all the existing, proven infrastructure for auto gas.
Lisp. 50+ years. Still use it.
AppSmith (https://github.com/appsmithorg/appsmith) is good one as well.
Ah, I see. You are referring to the turbines burning a 30% H2/70% NG initially. They are still using electrolyzers to make the hydrogen. Going to turbines that burn 100% H2 is not a huge technical obstacle. There are already turbines burning hydrogen, so hydrogen combustors are feasible.
why does UK gvt blame energy prices on Russia, when the Uk is close to energy independence. yeah central european countries that need to import energy from russia, okay.

the reason energy bills are so high is energy companies thought they could get away with it, and they did. Shell just reported massive quarter profits.
and the Uk will just let them scoot free
What prevents you? Can't you download the latest Zola?
Your GPA may be what gets your foot in the door, but your knowledge and your ability will determine the long arc of your career.
H2 will be the future only because it gives Oil & Gas industries an exit strategy from hydrocarbon and all the logistics already invested around it. If that is the price that it takes for us to move forward without obstructionist lobbying and think-tank disinformation from Oil & gas industries so be it.

I appreciate the argument of energy density but there is a handful of applications (aviation?) where there is a real need for setting up all the hydrogen generation infrastructure.
I completely and totally disagree with you!

Wait, what are a we all feeling strongly about? Ah, a quip on hacker news.
The critique goes deeper. This is where it's most on point:

"So I wonder- is this story ACTUALLY teaching people things? Or is it just a way for people who already know some of the material to feel superior to Hariezer’s many foils?"

Actually that's exactly what rubs me wrong about the entire "rationalist community". A lot of it is convoluted ways for people to congratulate themselves how much smarter than everyone else they are.
It doesn't fall under CAN-SPAM. This is a "transactional or relationship message".
The reasons I've heard so far:

They've got a Covid vaccine that doesn't work, so they're trying Covid Zero as a policy. This is effecting their production, ports, etc.

They've got issues with their pork industry. They've culled more pigs than the rest of the world has total in the last few years. They're food insecure.

They have demographic problems due to the "1 child" policies of the past.
High borrowing, low interest rates, supply-chain issues, irresponsible fiscal policies by the government, labour shortages and "quantitative easing" are possible candidates. Plus out-of-control inflation.
Clicked expecting a giant robot... was disappointed.
Efficiency is not so important, solar is cheap.
I think something not measured here but potentially important is the amount of acquaintance contact people have.

If you imagine living in a time before high-speed travel and big cities, the people you interacted with day-to-day were basically the same throughout your life. Maybe you weren't "friends" with these people, but just in order to live your life, you would inevitably be bumping into people that you had known in some capacity for years.

Nowadays when we go shopping or for a haircut or whatever, we are mostly interacting with basically anonymous people that we are unlikely to remember even if we do ever see them again.

The level of loneliness we can manage to achieve now seems quite a bit higher than when no matter what you do, just to get food to eat, you're going to have to go see someone who've you known for a decade and make small talk.

Probably not saying this well, but when I imagine day-to-day life in a small village, this seems like one of the most significant differences. It seems like it would be hard to ever go a day not interacting with other people that you knew in some capacity. Now it's so easy you might not even notice when you do it.
All of the things you mention are electronics, which are at least (arguably) optional, or at least minimal, on an ICE.

I am not saying an ICE is a better idea. I'm saying that an EV is, by some definition, unreliable from the drawing board onwards.

To really put the cat among the pigeons - does this make it, in a practical sense, less sustainable?
You can know a town by the thickness of the fence around the backyard.

If you have to deal with those kind of people, you're willing to sound silly just to protect yourself.
Yeah, that's why I like to use LUKS + ZFS nowadays for cold storage, at least you get a bit of support against bitrot and it's not that unwieldy.
CAN-SPAM explicitly exempts "transactional or relationship messages". This email would qualify.
To be fair, most of my visitors are not exactly lining up with the expectations of "standard". I get >90% of my [human] traffic from desktop clients, for example.
Public network capacity increased from 4,040 bitcoin on July 1 to 4,451 bitcoin on July 31, representing a capacity increase of 10.2%.
If you see my other comments, I am not making fun of a space.
Methane or Ammonia.
Not the audience for this (who's the audience anyway? can't think of any), so definitely not, but that mechanism has at least 1 major flaw:

If a password is compromised / brute forcedthe attacker will have access to the victim's e-mail (or other data) until the victim makes the time to get around to resetting the password in person, which might take a while.
I just keep breaking it down until it either feels silly to break it down anymore and/or I can estimate the chunk fairly reliably.
It may be hard to recall now, but their big thing was actually less intrusive and less scammy ads than the state of the art at the time.

It's also worth mentioning that lots of businesses that you pay money to, track you in similar ways. The origin of it was probably supermarket loyalty cards in the pre-internet era.

The association with no-cost products is not really appropriate, and mostly seems to be progaganda from people with other business models. It was the web scale and pure digital products that let the cost drop to near zero, which synergises with ad-supported offerings, (just as "free" ad-supported TV and radio were a thing for decades). However, it also allows other business models, such as non-profits like Wikipedia, netflix subscriptions, or subsidized by necessary hardware purchases.

Similarly, just because you pay money for various Google services, doesn't really gave them any motivation to not track you.
So are batteries and the energy they are charged with.

That is such a dishonest argument. Of course the intention is not to dig up hydrocarbons to then transform them into hydrogen to then later transform them back into hydrocarbons.
Wouldn't be more efficient to just ban ICE cars? I'm sure they create way more pollution than leaf blowers.
My favorite was "password must be a palindrome".
It doesn't work like that. There was public intelligence mid summer last year and we were running transports full of weapons to Ukraine back in December. This was all over paid up commercial intelligence feeds that investment companies have access to. You'd have thought they would have the same info at hand. It was damn obvious where we were heading.

Same as the rise of Covid 19 was reported as far back as November 2019 on the same feeds.

The problem is no one competent is at the wheel and the default policy is keep the spice flowing and hope the fuck the problem goes away and when everything goes to crap, blame it on "external factors" or something.

Edit: I think really it's "politically inconvenient" to have issues at some times so they hide them.
I think its better stated as:

* If you buy something legal in one state

* and you then travel to another state (where its illegal) with that item

* then you have broken the law and can go to jail.

Its not the doing something in state-a and then traveling to state-b. Its the traveling to state-b with something illegal in state-b.

Does that make more sense?
Flow control and QoS was critical 20 years ago. I helped build a global VoIP network, and some of our patents included dynamic routing across multiple ASes...they were critical.

Now, we (different company) have similar real-time algorithms, and the algorithms see much less problems (mainly across backbones of AWS, Azure, Oracle, IBM, Alibaba).

I suspect this is due to more bandwidth, more routes and better network optimization from the ISPs (we still see last mile issues but those are often a result of problems which better flow control algorithms usually can't completely solve).

Curious if ISP engineers can give a more expert view on the current state of the need or impact of better flow control in middle mile and/or last mile situations?
Aren't these all just the next evolution of ncurses?

That's not exactly new, and has been around long enough that I dont think these other project are moving the cli any further away.
About 5 years back, I submitted a collection of awk one-liners (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15549318). The response I received was one of the reasons I started writing ebooks about a year later. Since then I've done Show HN posts for my ebooks and many of them reached front page too. I give them away for free during release (but readers can still pay) and I've gotten significant sales as a result.

And as mentioned by graderjs, I've also had good sales when I link to my ebooks in relevant discussions.
Model 3 is ~12% heavier than a Camry and the Model 3 is smaller in length. What do you mean too heavy and too much space?
Exactly, sorry the current solutions don't live up to ideals, but if there's no better then we're already doing the ideal thing
Calling it exactly what it does... That's a bit 'on the nose', isn't it? Shouldn't we call it "gadget", or "razlika", or "moon beam" ? Something cool and confusing, with an available domain name for our flashy homepage and mascot. How else will we popularize and monetize it?
Wow, what's the reason? That it doesn't scale for free?

A simple solution would be "well make reliable products then", but of course that's not free either.
I actually like the idea of improving security, especially for my main email on which many other identities depend, also for their password resets. Not sure how it would be implemented, perhaps tying it into the national id system or something (where available)?
It does seem that any account important enough to warrant this level of security should also have excellent customer service/availability/emergency procedures.

Online IAM is hard.
Not more dangerous to fellow humans than other kinds of world leaders, surely? America, without nationalist populists at the helm these past two decades, was clearly dangerous to the people of Afghanistan and Iraq (unless they are not part of humanity).

Self-serving politicians are the rule across the world, not exceptions. The best we can hope for is one person is not in power for too long.
Actually Harry dismisses the idea about it being Voldemort very early in the book because Voldemort would never call himself half-blood.

A promising development is physical-chemical storage that doesn't require compression for storage, that seems to make hydrogen powered vehicles far more likely to win out over current battery-based EV technologies.

I live in Europe and I have at least 3 neighbors that vacuum/blow leaves in rotation, with gas fueled leaf blowers, and I hate the fucking noise. I have a small electric one as well that I use once every 2 months at most.

I haven't seen fury over Proof of Humanity. Maybe you're thinking of Sama's Worldcoin which is trying to scan the eyeballs of everyone on Earth to generate unique Ids? It was met with a lot of criticism over privacy and how it's being funded (much of the created new currency will go to its VC backers and Sam).

Proof of Humanity is definitely still an experiment, but has a much more open and less authoritarian design. Of all of the "proof of personhood" projects it has the most traction, especially within in the Ethereum community where its founder, Vitalik Buterin, has written a lot about it, including in his recent post on Soulbound:

https://vitalik.eth.limo/general/2022/01/26/soulbound.html
Saw plenty of leaf blower usage in Frankfurt, FWIW. So maybe some areas/cultures are just more fastidious about leaves than others?
Why should the court be in the business of expanding rights? I think you should go read and understand what the three branches of the federal government should do.

I think people have gotten used to the supreme Court that pushes a semi-majority opinion of certain topics across the country. We've seen this with abortion, same-sex marriage, and many other topics. The problem is this overrides the Democratic process.

While some people will complain that the federal government is really slow at passing laws, I see that as a good thing. And makes it so that an opinion must be popular around the entire country before it can really become law.

Do you want a supreme Court passing what are effectively new laws if that court had a majority of fundamentalist Christians on it that weren't originalist, but rather pushing their agenda? Then you would get the supreme Court saying there is no right to gay marriage. We could also get the supreme Court to rule that a baby in utero is considered a human life and aborting it would be murder.

Pushing the supreme Court to be only a body that rules on the laws that are available to it and not reading new language into then, I think will make everybody happy in the long run.

I've mostly come to the conclusion that DL is not going to beat tree based models especially when it comes to training speed.

What I am now looking at is if it's possible to feed in world knowledge from models like beer as features to XGBoost but without resorting to creating templates for table rows
> 96% of H2 produced from carbon sources

Yes this is crazy, there is no point using Hydrogen right now.

Solar panels are getting so cheap so quickly that in sunny places electricity during the day will be virtually free. 50% efficiency is pretty good in that case.
I don't see how raising interest rates is supposed to affect supply-side price increases.

For example, people may choose to save their money, or not borrow (given higher interest rates), instead of buying fuel, but that is unlikely to affect it's price.

This seems more like an attempt to strangle wage increases.
ksh and awk, love
Imagine the hubris it takes to think you have the right to choose what people can and "should" spend their time on. I'm guessing you have yet to grasp the concept of individual freedom.
> so the cycle was complete.

This is the heartbreaking part. It's like the bullied child becoming the bully: it happened to me so it's gonna happen to you.

The status quo continues unchanged, despite strongly negative experiences, because nobody is empowered to make change. Quite the opposite.
If you were around your family all day you'll get over them just like your colleagues. The most unnatural thing about modern life IMO is that we are not doing physical labor all day and instead sit. Whilst also working more.

Part of it is because of lawns, if you have a lot of trees the leaves can simply smother your lawn.

But even in cities there’s reasons to clean them up. They clog drains, they lump together in the gutter creating blockages that cause large puddles when it rains, they stain the pavement, they decompose on the sidewalk and people track it everywhere in buildings, and more. Maybe you don’t see these as problems that need solving, but people aren’t tidying up leaves just for the fun of it, they have reasons. We’re not simply obsessed with cleaning up leaves.
Who cares about braking, the cone acts as an airbag!
Yep, I have also done this and come to a similar conclusion. The best performance I got was with the WebCrypto API, where I got, IIRC, 100,000 SHA512 hashes a second, with a very optimized routine for iterating the hashcash string. SHA512 probably makes the most sense since AFAIK it's the most intensive hash supported by WebCrypto, and the WebCrypto digest API is async, so a whole lot of time is going to be spent awaiting no matter what you do.

I think WebCrypto is available in workers, so you could probably use numerous workers to get a better hashrate. Still, I don't suspect that would jump it past a million, which seems pretty bad for a desktop computer, and it would be a lot worse on a mobile phone.

It might still be a meaningful impediment when combined with other measures, but with the low bar you'd have to set for preimage bits for mobile devices, it's a little questionable.

It's probably the map tiles from openstreetmap.de, which show names preferably in German. Unlike the tiles from openstreetmap.org, which show names in the country's native language by default.
I would assume, perhaps rightly perhaps wrongly, that in your example Texas does not have jurisdiction and would be a third party to that action. The state government could act against an individual for something they did in their state, or the federal government could conceivably act, but not other uninvolved states.

In both of your examples, the states are controlling the behavior of people in those states. Texas is controlling people in its state (and leaving). South Carolina would be banning things brought into its state (information). I think both of these examples, if they are as plainly stated as you mentioned, are illegal for different reasons (interstate commerce clause) but I wouldn't think this is an example of states policing actions that happened in other states.
Hahaha sounds like the “half-blooded” Prince’s book!

Is any western economy really not already in a recession? We already know certain economies(think Germany, US,UK,etc) have their symptoms(or trends) shown faster than the ones pegged to them. The question people should have is how we bounce back from it. Germany for example has been de facto in a recession since 2018( 0.2% See Forbes), US managed to climb until Trump's late moments.

I find it very funny when the media(not to say the establishment at large) either tries to hide the economic situation or blame it on their political opponents. Blaming Russia is not the entire issue, i'd say locking down the globe for 2 years for essentially no reason is a bigger problem, but then again people who were saying there would be repercussions for lockdowns were quickly shunned. After Russia the next boogeyman will be climate change, after that: who knows, maybe WW3 or China. All of them are real concerns on their own but none pinpoint the actual issue: western leadership that promotes policies that facilitate the very top of the "economic iceberg" instead of the vast majority of the people(think increasing the middle class).Most of the people represent the economy, so even if you have record-setting profits for corporations, the economy still performs poorly.
Because if they don't blame energy prices, they will have to face that it is in part down to Brexit. (and some other complicated hard to explain reasons that won't make for a good soundbite, so people will only focus on Brexit)

Brexit is basically a religion for the current Conservative party, and it absolutely can not be questioned, or criticised.
If the UK insisted on purchasing gas at a lower price then companies would just export the gas instead of selling it domestically.

The mistake was selling off the rights of fossil fuels to private companies in the first place.
