> I'm surprised that most people didn't pre-burn their dried feces before using it as fertilizer

This paper is about incineration of sewage sludge. They consider incineration at temperatures like 700C to 900C. Seems like you end up burning 98% of the nitrogen, which is then released as gas (bottom of page 12, just before Conclusions). The output ash only contains 2% if the input nitrogen.

Kind of defeats to point of using the output as fertilizer.

Hi. I got curious. Do you mean ”regression detection mehanism”? Could you elaborate? Thanks.
> Instead we have “classical EM works, therefore photons are bullshit and QM is not real”.

Anyone who is saying that is obviously wrong and of course I am not claiming that (although I do think that photons are probably bullshit)

> The fact that we can understand a macroscopic phenomenon using classical EM theory is thoroughly uninteresting

Why is it uninteresting? To me as a physicist this is thoroughly interesting!

> It’s still just a bunch of photons.

This is somewhat misleading, the wave description of light is complete and still totally preserved in quantum optics. The only deficiency is that the light's energy density should be quantised. You absolutely should not think of light as infinitely small particles that move at the speed of light, that is an inaccurate and outdated picture.
Yes, they banned some and restricted others, that's my point.
She says a male operator recorded it.

Here's an audio recording of Hopper relating that story: https://archive.org/details/podcast_from-archives_grace-hopp... starting at 16:12.

You'll see she says "they found the failing relay" and "the operator got a pair of tweezers ... and below it he wrote “First actual case of bug being found.”"

https://chsi.harvard.edu/harvard-ibm-mark-1-language notes four terms which entered programming through the Mark I, not the Mark II. These are: "Loop", "Patch", "Library", and "Bug" - with images of the physical nature of the first three! For the latter it says (emphasis mine):

] The "Bug"

] Before 1944, electrical engineers already used the term "bug" to refer to hard-to-find physical defects that hindered the operation of an electric device. The Mark I team appropriated the term for unexpected problems in the "coding" of a problem. Above are cartoons drawn by Grace Hopper of the different types of bugs encountered during her work.

The paper "Stalking the Elusive Computer Bug" by Peggy Aldrich Kidwell (doi:10.1109/85.728224) date those cartoons to 1945, and gives other pre-Mark II examples of using 'bug' for the Mark I:

] I. B. Cohen has examined a photocopy of the logbook kept by Robert Campbell, a young physicist at the Computation Laboratory. It tersely summarizes hours spent finding and correcting errors. On 17 April 1944, Campbell wrote, "Ran test program. Mr. Durfee from I.B.M. was here to help us find 'bugs.'"

and Hopper writing "a debugging note to operators" in 1945/1946 and "errors in mathematics and tape bugs pursued and captured by Ensign Bloch and Ensign Campbell."
What do you need a WAF for? Unless it's a legacy app that you have no control over, the best alternative would be nothing.
Exactly! HN is full of armchair judges, armchair scientists, armchair inventors, armchair researchers, you name it! More likely than not, their comments are going to be negative, belittling and demorsalizing to actual human beings involved.

This goes both ways. We don't know which party is guilty. It could be the women. It could be the defendant. We don't know. We don't have access to the case files. The jury is still out there.

Pretty sure this is not how the HN commenters behave with their colleagues in real life or they would be without jobs pretty soon. Pretty sure they would hate it if they were the target of such comments that they spew out here. But here on HN, it is just so easy to sit behind a keyboard and become an armchair expert in everything and attack others or their work or their inventions or their writings. Absolutely deplorable. I am very disappointed!
The man literally hired a professional to write fake content signaling virtue. Quite a bit of content. I don’t think it’s a political affiliation thing.

There is no documentation and no drivers actually implementing this API.

He's not kidding. It's hilarious. It could be a driver for anything.

I think if you start tweeting or publishing a lot of positive material on social media exclusively around those topics (save for the last few topics, because a lot of people actually are into those in 2022), you are far more likely to end up in a situation that is the exact opposite of "algorithms working for you".

Unless you amp it up to the point of irony/satire maybe, so that people would follow it for the comedic effect. But for that approach to actually work, the tin foil powerlevel gotta be a bit higher.
"stole a kiss" wtf is this minimising bullshit? According to the article, he forced himself on someone, grabbing them by the throat. They feared for their life.

According to the article, he also literally had sex with his partner while she was under the influence, without her consent.

Please don't minimise victims trauma.
For me, maybe for alot of people, COVID provided the impulse that revealed my own midlife crisis. It was all that time away from work and with family that forced me to begin coming to terms with how shallow my identity outside of work had become. I can never go back to my pre-pandemic self, and that's probably for the best. Even though my current role is great in compensation and substance, I still feel this malaise lurking.
Acceptance is important, necessary, but, for me, not sufficient. I'm not sure what my atelics are. I'm not in crisis by any means, nor at risk of buying a Tesla or having an affair, or whatever else, but the struggle is real. Midlife blahs
I first heard "virtue signalling" used to describe why people buy expensive Rolex watches even though they're worse at keeping time than a F-91W.

And of course, dismissing someone as "virtue signalling" is itself an act of virtue signalling in the other sense.

The flashers make me cringe a bit. I'm not quite convinced slow should come at the expense of safe driving.

Not sure about Provo / Salt Lake (the interstate may be the only option there). Personally living in France, so if I'm not pressed for time, I go off of the highway completely and either drive on "Nationale" (kind of a free / slower highway), or just let the GPS pick some more scenic route. There are plenty of nice rural corners around that are often worth a few minutes of a detour.
One of the criteria is a finite, pre-known number of options. In this scenario, you're never forced to buy a house simply because it's the last one and if you don't buy it there's never going to be more houses available.
Same here! And I used a typewriter for my essays at university. These days if I scribble things down its just a scrawl (not really printing or cursive to be honest).
Claiming she is accusing him for "for sweet money" is as much unfounded accusation as the response to it. Actually even more if you look at the actual content of what posters wrote. While the response you reacted to contained mild claim, the original one was flat out vilification and direct accusation. Why is it that the former one is acceptable, but people who respond to it have to tip toes around?

In a year's time you'll still be reading the same complaints about search quality though for the simple inescapable fact that there is little incentive for anyone to write impartial and authoritative reviews for anything that is isn't just a random hobby.

The interesting thing for me about the past are how present the human frailties are, which inform both the past and the present.

Woodrow Wilson was naive. You're telling me there's no naive politicians any more?

Charles Dickens personifies "do as I say, not as I do" and we're not allowed to remark on Victorian hypocrisy as it informs contemporary mores?

Who made you the history police? You want to tell people not to pull down statues? Or, only the ones we could judge by civil war era morals?

Sure. If it's an essay do what your teachers ask. Out here in the unreal world, we draw comparisons all the time.

Be careful about crossing the line from "innocent until proven guilty" over into "victim-blaming" territory.

It takes an insane amount of courage to come forth publicly with the kinds of accusations these women are bringing, and a history of men victim blaming women is why so many abusers roam our midst with impunity. When I hear these kinds of accounts, I typically have more reasons to distrust the accused abuser who is usually the person wielding more power in the whole system.

Spoken like a developer, not a businessperson.

The real world is a lot more complicated. As Rumsfeld put it, "You go to war with the army you have, not the army you might want or wish to have at a later time."

A startup might have a product with a promising and unique core feature, but still have many other features that are buggy. It's common for startups to be overambitious, and that often manifests as buggy features.

Startups like this will often have a high churn rate with early customers and trials. But that changes over time as they get experience with which features and which issues matter.

If you want to kill a new business quickly, "stop and fix" the bugs in your first version. The problem is, your first version may very well not be the one with the best product/market fit, and you just wasted your precious investment money, time, and resources fixing bugs that ultimately won't matter.
Since I didn't can we consider it a failure?

> And that's partly because society doesn't value teachers as much as it should.

Speaking from Australia, I'd probably command enormous respect if I taught some kid programming. Compared to the median wage I'd be roughly doubling their earning power & I could get them a good desk job if they are smart-ish and try hard.

However, I'm legally barred from becoming a "teacher" because I don't have a masters degree in education.

This is probably the heart of why they don't command respect like they used to - it used to be that people worthy of respect became teachers. Now people worthy of respect become some other profession and aren't allowed to teach their high-value skills without jumping through hoops.

This isn’t trial by Twitter.

This is actual human beings approaching legitimate newspapers with fact checking departments and legal departments and risks of defamation lawsuits, providing their stories and attaching their names to it.

Everyone of the entities involved are at risk of being sued for defamation if they are lying in this situation. The fact that people can’t tell the difference between Twitter BS and actual news claims is a true indictment of modern society.
Gosh you make it sound like a schoolyard flirtation. "Stole a kiss". She was trapped in his car and he grabbed her by the throat. He grabbed another woman by the throat and didn't let go. He raped a woman. There is a pattern of behaviour here that is profoundly disturbing.

Victims are often frightened enough to not come forward. The kind of trial by social media in which you're now engaged is all part of that. Why allege anything when you'll be accused of making it up, being a slut, having your life history raked through by trolls online...

"Hunted by his money" ffs. "Without more data". Have some empathy.

Also note that he is NOT "being sued for sweet money" but criminally charged by a prosecutor. They don't do that unless they have strong evidence and there's no compensation to victims in a criminal trial.
Intestinal parasites are a sexually transmitted disease.

It's possible that some men who sought out a life of close confinement with other men might have a proclivity for behaviors which might result in parasite transmission.
If one wanted to wage a dirt campaign against him the accusations would look exactly like they do now. He is obviously a controversial figure. Might have rustled the wrong feathers.

Many accusation are also very nebulous, hard to verify and avoiding anything concrete that could get the person making them get sued for defamation.

Of course, he also could just be an asshole and abuser. We simply can't know.

Problem of nuclear shipping is cost and liability.

Although in terms of pure CO2 emissions it's great, risk insurance is almost impossible (although the chance of accident is small, the possible cost of it is pretty close to infinite). Also, good luck convincing commercial ports to accept privately owned nuclear reactors.

There's a reason that nuclear marine propulsion is mostly the domain of nation states and armed forces.

Also, $70K is absolutely terrible in Seattle. I don't know why everyone applauded. He was massively underpaying most employees before and still did after.
Indeed, you're right.

I live in france, I was at a relative this summer, and TV medias did not really talk about it. Same for newspapers it seems, but I'm not really sure.
It's all relative either way.
Simply bullshit. It got flagged because it didn't fit a certain hive mind narrative I already mentioned. Top posts on HN routinely feature politics of all kinds, much of it quite ordinary or banal and far from touching upon some "interesting new phenomenon". Given how little is actually described (and with decent photos no less, accompanied by an in-person narrative) about conservative rallies, I'd say this post fit the bill just fine.
That's why you don't judge someone by what they say but what they actually do. Cutting his pay and giving hikes to his employees is commendable. The rest of the allegations against him, not so.
n depends on your resource budget. Your resources might be limited by availability (how many secretary applicants are there), time (how long does each test take vs how much time can you invest), etc.

It did until roughly 5 years ago. From what i found by googling the product was acquired by a larger competitor and then decommissioned in favour of an existing product. The benefit in web based uis is that they work on any platform a supporting browser can be installed. And if you understand js it can work for a very very long time.
The log book entry that says, "First actual case of bug being found", indeed always seemed like a piece of humour to me. The presence of the word "actual" in the entry makes sense only if the term "bug" to mean defects is already established in the industry. If this log book entry really were the first time a bug was found in a computer, it would have merely said, "a bug was found", not "first actual case of bug".

Imagine a world where there is no Python programming language. One day you arrive at your office and find a python (the reptile) on your desk. You would probably say, "found a python at my desk". But if that were to happen today, I am sure pictures of it would be taken and circulated within the team with captions like, "An actual Python workspace".

The presence of the word "actual" is the clue that the term is well established in the engineering world and that it is an attempt at humour.
> With no corresponding change to the amount of fuel used to climb up to cruising altitude

Yes, but

1) a plane flying a larger distance has to lift a heavier load of fuel

2) emissions tend to do more damage at high altitude than they do at ground level

so I would not discount the benefits of reducing flight distance as much as possible.

You just have different opinions. OP is claiming that, for them, taking half a week to travel 10.000kms is OK, should be the default and the rest of our lifestyle should accommodate that. And I tend to agree with them: it would be much cool to have 5-6 weeks holidays instead of 3 and spend 7/10 days to go and come back, which will be an enjoyable part of the holidays as well.

"Innocent until proven guilty beyond reasonable doubt" is the gate for government violence, but as a society we operate on a very different standard, for very good reasons.

Multiple credible accusations, corroborated by contemporaneous accounts, collated by a reputable journalist is definitely enough to call the accusations founded.
