No, there's actually plenty of data. Huge numbers of women have reported disrupted periods immediately after taking the vaccines. They were all ignored, of course because of dumb "correlation is not causation" arguments like yours.

Correlation does not imply causation but causation always implies correlation, so when something fundamentally changes in a biological process as basic as reproduction and the only change of similar scale that matches temporally is an experimental new medical technology, you have to be willfully blind to not want an immediate, thorough and unconflicted investigation into that, because if it isn't the vaccines then that is one hell of a coincidence.

We aren't going to get such an investigation of course, because the public health community doesn't want to admit the possibility that their policies have negative side effects. So correlations will be the best we'll get.
The new one, using 2 heating elements, burns your coffee if you leave it because the heater needs to be warm enough to actually make the coffee two and it takes literally twice as long to make the exact same coffee.

After 60 years perhaps the nuke-boosters can admit that nukes were never a good idea. They have always depended on massive public subsidy to appear competitive.

Now nukes are radically more expensive than alternatives even neglecting the massive subsidies.

Each dollar diverted from renewables to nukes brings climate catastrophe nearer.

I'm very happy to see that a vulnerability introduced in a May 2022 was found, diagnosed, and fixed in a June 2022 update.

This idea of "protecting the users from themselves" can be dangerous. Several very large corporations are currently telling their users to do very insecure things because telling them to use an extra option in some circumstances would be too confusing for their puny brains. Even though it's a security feature and doing things securely is kind of a big deal.

An extra field in an "Advanced Settings" menu should not need to be hidden behind some "Press About 5 times" secret gauntlet. Users are not so stupid that they will fill out an "Advanced" form field they don't understand, and even if they do, you can always make a connection attempt to see if the input was valid.
APIs don't do well with "probably". For example, say you're working with a language (Python, Rust, etc) that distinguishes between utf-8 strings and byte strings. You're making an API for listing a directory: it gives you an array of strings but what kind should they be?

(Python's approach is that os.listdir("/") gives you a List[str] (silently omitting undecodable entries), while os.listdir(b"/") gives you a List[bytes]. That is, if you give the path as a utf-8 string it returns utf-8 strings, otherwise it returns bytes.)

I think the problem with explaining the MOP is that it really only pays off with systems that are big enough and complicated enough that you really can't use them as examples in a book. You can provide contrived examples but then some readers just nitpick on how contrived they are.

>> Much of this data is concentrated and sequestered in large companies.

Even the claimed use "advertising" does not require data collection. It probably does make advertising more efficient, but that isn't a reason to allow it. Once collected it does tend to get aggregated in a large player, so most playing the game do not win anyway.

I'd prefer they ban this data collection (and certainly its transfer or sale) but I fear they just want to "regulate" it.

>Many credit experts say you should keep your credit utilization ratio — the percentage of your total credit that you use — below 30% to maintain a good or excellent credit score.

Credit utilization is a major factor in your credit score, so it pays to keep an eye on it. View the 30% rule as a good guideline, but be aware that using even less is better for your score.

So just store 80-350 books in the attic and kids' scores in literacy and numeracy will magically improve. Once they study it some more, maybe the books don't even need to be there all the time. Maybe we can just fill up a truck with thousands of books and have it zig zag across town and every kids will make more progress.

80-350 books is not what the article is about, it's about owning more books than you can read. I assure you, you can read 80-350 books, and I assume that almost everyone commenting here has done so.

I'd expect most components to fail under stress which is not the case in a low-power standby mode where only a single 5V power rail is active and sources a few milliamps.

Not great and I personally wouldn't put equipment in cabinets, but I'd expect most failures to occur when the equipment is actively being used & under stress, not during standby.

This is an enormous area of study - one that I have followed for a few decades now. The issue comes down to the 'ontological commitment'.

Scientists have grown less and less willing to make the ontological commitment. These days, if I ever see it, it shocks me.

That's why I'm so interested in this video. What has changed that would make a physicist so confident as to make these kinds of career-breaking ontological commitments?

The most excellent book I have read on the topic, and I highly recommend this to everyone on this thread: Arthur Fine "The Shaky Game: Einstein's Realism and the Quantum Theory". I would love to hear suggestions for books to read as follow-up to this.
The old one is the one with 2 elements — the new one has only 1. The bad taste from the hot plate is mostly a function of using the hot plate, rather than a specific temperature difference from old to new — he recommends not using the hot plate at all in either version, and just letting it get cold, and microwaving your next cup on demand. I think you’re mixing up his discussion of water temperature leaving the bubble pump.
Post this as Show HN next time, you'll (probably) get more feedback.
This reads like a hand wavy reference to some sort of programmable systolic array thing. A current example in this vein is googles TPU ai accelerators. Note they get drastic increase in performance by drastically limiting precision (read small values and registers, a specific computation requiring limited operations) hence massive reduction in transistors per computational element. Ok fine; but for statefull calculations that need to load and or store information per compuatational element it’s not the win one might think. Specifically memory bandwidth can be the limitation. In these cases modern GPUs are really really hard to beat.

This was in an apartment building in Paris, not a detached house. It was a quite common setup when fiber started rolling out: it would arrive in the basement and apartments would be connected through the existing coax (TV) cables.

Checking Wikipedia, maybe FTTB is a more appropriate term.

Now it's mostly GPON FTTH.

edit: regarding the latency, your setup adds around 30 ms of latency, which to me seems rather high.
I'm not sure whether the approach you are talking about is coarse grained or fine grained, feels pretty fine grained to me. Programming with data flow is already used by some high performance computing frameworks, e.g. cuda and onetbb supports task graphs, which are not instruction level data flow but more coarse grained task flow.

Not sure if exposing the underlying pipelining to programmers will be that useful.
1. Graphs are more general but more complicated. Control flow graphs are nice, data dependence graphs are more messy.
2. You still need an underlying representation for the graph. If you consider instructions as a certain representation of a data flow graph, you are still getting a graph, but perhaps not that flexible for programmers. And if you want to encode dependencies more precisely, you will need longer instructions, and modern CPUs are typically a lot faster than the main memory.
3. Exposing pipelining details as the ISA may limit future optimization. Due to hardware limitation, the maximum number of inflight operations must be bounded, so you either need some way to restrict the programmers to not do some crazy data flow graphs, or limit it implicitly by blocking when there is too many inflight operations. The latter case is quite similar to what we currently have, and the first case will leak some implementation details to the ISA.
This is what frustrates me with JS development/the ecosystem - why use Astrodon instead of Tauri directly, with deno and whatever else you want? Sure maybe a bit quicker to get started, but there's more unknown/unfamiliar, another set of docs to look at, another thing that could be the cause when something goes wrong, just unnecessary indirection.

Or put another way, why isn't this just a template repo, why does it need it's own 'community', versioning, plugin system etc., it just seems like an annoying level to have a framework at to me - on top of Tauri but beneath any svelte/vue/etc. framework you might use.
Ask HN: How to block a specific website only at home

The thing I see come up time and time again on these kinds of threads is some form of taking a break (either just from work, I saw a suggestion to someone younger to go back to college, or completely time off, as it is in this case, or somewhere in between) so I feel that must have some merit at least.

Other than that, I'm afraid I'm not of much help as I'm in a kind-of similar situation myself. Might be worth looking at what else is out there, not just related to dev but literally anything, even if it does mean less pay.
A fancy name for an age-old (and still ways better) concept: system thinking
The bane of my existence has always been wireless - family stopped complaining when I switched all the AP's to Ubiquity.

Never rebooted - uptimes in months and they are on battery backup.

It is amazing how much the stock firmware shipped by the likes of Broadcom/Realtek sucks so much - it is not like Mikrotik/Ubiquiti makes their own SOC's to make it more realizable.
Sorry, that was imprecise – as far as I know it's not actually all HTTP requests, but rather only those on a list of URLs that the operator has a contractual agreement with. (I'd like to believe that this does not include advertisement/tracking purposes, or that the identifier is at least hashed for those...)

Regarding an API to bypass Wi-Fi: I think at least on iOS, such a thing does not exist, and on Android I'd be extremely annoyed as well if an app were to possibly incur data and/or roaming charges for this. (I'm not sure whether there is an Android API to send only a specific request over mobile data without impacting other, already existing connections.)
It's a package manager, package managers are almost always entirely optional.

The prevalence of parasitic species was determined for every insect species.

Parasitic developmental forms were detected in 244 (81.33%) out of 300 (100%) examined insect farms.

....and in 91 (30.33%) cases, parasites were potentially pathogenic for humans.

During the research in individual farms, we observed unethical practices of individual breeders, such as feeding insects with animal feces from a pet shop, feeding insects with corpses of smaller animals, or feeding insects with moldy food and even raw meat.

In our study, Cryptosporidium spp. were detected in the digestive tract and other body parts of all evaluated insect species. In our opinion, insects are an underestimated vector of Cryptosporidium spp., and they significantly contribute to the spread of these parasites.

---> I'm sure it will be fine, just fine. The wealthy elites around the world will be eating their steaks, fine meats and aged wines, while we the plebes, thanks to the 2030 WEF agenda will own nothing, eat insects burgers that will give us parasites and disease and drink our recycled urine. Happy days.

"This will not be liked by the typical HN audience..."

Not to be rude, but this hits the nail on the head. Most of the asymmetric investments are unpopular. Buying something unpopular seems to be a requirement for doing well -- the whole buy when people are fearful, sell when people are hopeful.

It's not just HN, crypto bros generally won't recommend ETH either.

Just for clarity, when a CPA is enacted, the card number isn't used so changing the card will not prevent the charges as it's tied to account (haven't seen this used for a while but the idea is to make it easy for people when they lose card etc) - it's worth asking the issuer if they can kill that particular agreement as you've now objected and want to withdraw which is your right (also suggest they deal with Amazon as you've reported the unauthorized use but they evidently aren't fulfilling their obligations set by card networks)
It does what it should for us.

SSH + "make deploy" is a really bad comparison as you don't get overlay networking for free and also don't get any HA.

What we need:

1. HA for services
2. networking between nodes
3. ingress into the cluster
4. possibly volumes

All 4 are solved to our liking. Once we really need Kubernetes, we can do the switch.
I haven’t used Blitz 2.0 (beta came out today?!), but I really enjoyed building with Blitz 1, and the architecture change for 2.0 looks really good. The creator

My personal project stack is Vercel + NextJS + Blitz + Supabase. I can choose to use Blitz’s auth if I need rich OAuth providers, or Supabase’s if I’m building something super simple. I think Prisma (which Blitz bundles as the database access layer) is more productive in the domain of single weekend dev than Rails/ActiveRecord or Django’s ORM.

Here’s the task list:

1. Create Supabase project (2 clicks)

2. Create project with Blitz generator (1 command)

3. Create git repo on GitHub & push (2 clicks)

4. Create Vercel deploy for git repo (3 clicks)

I don’t think there’s a stack out there that can take you from zero to a full stack richly interactive app with CDN caching, auth, database, and live refresh as quickly. If you only want server rendering, Rails + Supabase + Render might be close, but if you’re familiar with Typescript it really is a dream.

I really recommend checking it out if you’re into Typescript.

Essential features of the Visitor Management Solution for a workspace
The CDC did not cover themselves with glory in this pandemic.

They insisted that they were the only outfit who could conduct covid testing, and shut down all other labs that were doing testing. This was at the very beginning of the outbreak where testing was critical. Then, it took them a long time to produce a test, and the test ended up not working.

And this was after being lazy and just believing the authorities in China about covid instead of doing their own surveillance. Taiwan did a great job of this, but the CDC epically failed.

Remember "2 weeks to flatten the curve"?

And what about the teacher's union using the CDC as a sock puppet?

There are few industries as cynical as venture capital. They won't ever invest in projects explicitly designed for public welfare because "the economics don't work" or "the innovation isn't there".

But they will invest eye-watering sums into financing student newspapers for the middle-aged (Substack) or 'turn your car into a public taxi' businesses, knowing that 90% of them won't amount to anything.
I highly supect that GM is undervalued. They were one of only two companies to sell enough EVs to disqualify themselves for the old tax credit, they're heavily invested in mass production of more, you don't need to worry about Elon Musk tweeting something dumb and tanking the stock, and they majority-own Cruise who are way closer to self driving than Tesla probably ever will be.

Despite all that their market cap is less than a tenth of Tesla's. Until 2008, it was the biggest car manufacturer in the world and in raw technical ability they're probably better than Tesla.

I'm biased because I own a lot of stock already but I still think there's money to be made on it.

If we really care about performance, then this split between the runtime and user code is not ideal. What we should be trying to do is bake the user code into the runtime and apply total program optimization. This can be done today with C, C++ and Rust. However, in principle JavaScript code could be transpiled to Zig and then baked into Deno.

Building such culture requires checks and controls where you can see. It requires customers that complain after a while if things don't work. It requires management that does not reward pure speed. The "that's how it's done right and I don't do it half-assed" does not magically happen.
