Same! I’ve been using HEY for a couple years now. I hope they do something similar for my calendar needs.
I don't bear 1 ounce of shame of anything I wasn't a direct participant in. Not slavery, not the KKK, not any of our lame ass wars, none of that. Should we try to fix the ills of those terrible things? Absolutely. I acknowledge it all happened and it was an awful thing. It always has to be viewed through the context of the times it happened in though. None of this "white man's guilt" crap. Let's all work together to fix it, not continuously spin our wheels feeling guilty and hating each other. CRT is an attempt to push the guilt narrative and that's why I agree with it pitched out on it's head from schools, not because I think history shouldn't be taught but "emotion as history" is a bad road to go down.

Please don't take HN threads into flamewar hell. Your comment was a noticeable step hellward. You can make your substantive points without swipes, name-calling, and flamebait, so please do that instead.

In order to understand the difference, you'd have to have a blinded and unblinded study, and compare the results. Then you could understand the difference between a guess with 90% confidence and actually knowing what treatment you received with certainty.

It seems reckless to presume the difference (between blinded and unblinded) is small. The numbers you cite (94.7% and 90% confidence) have nothing to do with the question you're trying to answer.

For example, an important difference may be with respect to expectations. If you're told you're receiving a psychedelic treatment, you may go into the experience with different expectations than if you were unsure about what treatment you were getting.
I don’t understand… you can still get either of those cars on the used market so this wouldn’t affect you, would it?

I’m also pretty positive if you wanted to buy a brand new Porsche or BMW you could pay for a manual version.

The article we've all supposedly read (but clearly some have not) is specifically talking about software written in a mix of C/C++ and Python.

At least some of the images that come up in that Google Images search are from the Cutter Incident, which was caused by a Polio vaccine, much like the current outbreaks that we're seeing, so that probably wasn't the best example.
Shiet,

I used to drive a manual 5L Mustang in the depth of the Edmonton winter. There was definitely one hill going into the city where if the traffic stopped (due to there being a pedestrian crossing right at the top for some reason) it was definitely time to start praying to the old gods and the new.

One time, after a particularly snowy night I drove into downtown and after making a right turn the car had its belly get stuck on a bunch of snow. But, indeed having a manual transmission did save me there as I switched into 3rd and got the car out that way after a couple tries.

Fun times.
There's countless examples of niche jargon on the front page of HN every day. Sometimes it has to do with Rust, or Zig, or Protobuf, or an obscure file spec. Today the jargon happens to be about blockchain consensus engineering.
I have this setup (eGPU case with a 10GbE NIC) and what you want for a Mac is an Aquantia AQC107 card, which I’ve managed to get a few of. Those have the same 10Gb chip as Apple uses so work perfect with no issue.
It reads like an advert for Vivaldi. I dont have any issues with Vivaldi, but the content of the article is clearly "clickbait" with "Mutt" for the comparison. Highly avoidable write up.
Anyone for whom the ROCE is better than 1% (per the given scenario).

I doubt that data centers will be built, but there are other uses beside hydrogen -> ammonia->urea. Desalination, for instance. Carbon capture, to make money in the carbon credit markets. Even at 4 hours a day, mechanical capture with plausible costs can compete with forests.
You're missing the demand side and the dependents problem. AI, Automation, etc. may replace factory workers but those workers also consumed products. With less consumers you have less demand thus your revenues are doomed to shrink year on year.

Just about every society has dependents who can no longer work and younger workers who support them through tax revenue. With fewer and fewer young workers and more and more dependents you have no good options. Cutting services would be bad for the elderly and likely impossible to pass in a democratic society as they would make up the majority of the voting population. Not cutting services would accelerate flight of workers and worse birth rates as overwork youth don't have time to start their own families.

"comma isn’t run by rational actors in suits sitting on a committee. It’s run by me, George Hotz. I’m willing to lose $1M before I give him $10k."

This stance is admirable but comma.ai is partly owned by investors. Isn't he obliged to find the lowest cost solution to this ? Or is George Hotz planning to spend his personal money on the lawsuit ?
There are a lot of handed down memories of shifting in non-synchromesh transmissions with lousy cable driven clutches. These are very old memories. Modern manuals do a lot of interesting things like force shifting patterns for efficiency.

If you really want to geek out, do a NASCAR Racing Experience. Those clutches and transmissions are awful in comparison (they’re not supposed to be optimized for feel). They’re mushy, the clutch throw is long and very stiff, and the shifter takes forever to move into gear. The base model economy car stick shift I learned in (‘91 Mazda derived Ford Escort) feels like a luxurious precision instrument in comparison.

Restriction diet in mice is well established. Metformin is in short supply worldwide because of (ab)use for life extension and weighloss (which is a neighbour field). Most other views on the benefits of restriction diet on longevity and neutraceuticals are mixed: for everyone who says "works for me" there is another saying "short term gain, longterm risk" or similar statements.

The scientific fraud behind Amyloid theory has thrown a lot of people, because the fundamentals of why people think removing brain plaque is valuable are now back for review.

(don't work in the field. Unsure I think living longer is net beneficial)
You can get EDID spoofers on Amazon for about 20$ for these kinds of issues.
True, but I can automate throwing the email into the trash, I have to manually pickup the snail mail at least 3 times a week to keep the mailbox from overflowing. I have a sorting table right next to the trash can. Most days, it all goes into the trash.
Your comment doesn’t add to the discussion. On the subject, although I generally agree with you, there is a lot more favorable press/comments for MSFT stuff these days on HN
I was fortunate enough to have a generous older sister with a well-worn Maverick. I don't ever regret driving a manual, but modern manufacturers are driving cars to be as boring as possible.
1, you bothered to use a good desktop client, putting you ahead of 95% of people. 2, you got a choice of which client to use, not always true in the workplace.

3, how many emails do you get? I averaged 60 emails per day in 2021, or probably 80-90 work emails per work day. More than half don't need to be read, but even spending 30 seconds per email would be a problem. Many people probably get a lot more.

Paid accounts.

She got through to customer support, they just weren’t able or willing to provide any information.
Yes I said overtake, not roundabout.

The related context is that automatics can’t predict what gear you’re going to need before you need it. This leads to a lag that doesn’t exist with manuals that automatics compensate for by having oversized and overpowered engines.

This is most noticeable when overtaking or driving on twisty mountain roads. One way people work around it is by tapping the brakes as a signal to the transmission to shift down.

Another way to notice this weird behavior with automatics is to see how much noise american cars make when trying to take off fast from a stop light. Lots of noise thanks to wide open throttle, not much acceleration because the (cheap) gearbox keeps shifting up and reducing torque.
I think the only country i've been which does not do this is the US. It was pretty weird at first
I’ll stay manual until I go electric. Every time I’ve tried automatic transmissions I had the feeling that the computer was struggling to figure out what I’m gonna do (upshift, downshift, accelerate slowly, accelerate agressively?) based on the limited input available. It always felt annoying compared to the direct control with a manual.

Seems like I have to explain …you said:

> Manual transmission fetishism is perplexing to me. I’ve owned two manual transmission cars… an old Hyundai Elantra and an even older Toyota pickup. I can’t think of a single reason I would not rather have the automatic version of either.

To which I say: it’s because you haven’t had a fun manual car. BMW 325i and Porsche 964 were both fun in manual.

> I’m also pretty positive if you wanted to buy a brand new Porsche or BMW you could pay for a manual version.

No, actually it doesn’t work like this anymore for most new models.
The new concept of “full stack” is no longer just UI plus backend. Cloud native app development requires Infrastructure as Code (IaC) to be added to your “full stack” list. Terraformer can greatly help expand your full stack to include IaC. Check out my blog to find out the what, why, and how.
It’s eerie to think of how hard South Korea is going to crash in the future. These past years may have been it’s peak.
I used Apple Mail for years, followed by Thunderbird, Claws Mail, and Outlook on Windows. The switch to Windows was precipitated by the use of some banking apps that only work on Windows. After about 20 years, I've switched back to using Rmail under Emacs. I don't recall the reason for leaving it before, but it's nice to be using it again.
“ i frequently need to search with it as To: when I've got folders of email where I'm a co-recipient and need to search who the mail was address to”

That seems like an odd use case that I have never needed to do. Not sure why there would be default support for that when you could just start your search with “to:”
You need a lot more mining and environmental destruction to get enough batteries for replacing all cars with electric vehicles. Kind of wondering if maybe one day we could have safe micro reactors that can power vehicles.

We use a mix of axum, and tonic/tower, depending on if the service is internal (grpc) or external (http).

And no, we do not use an ORM like diesel, since we primarily use ScyllaDB. We wrote our own - it's very nice. We have a fully type-safe scylla/cassandra client, that does static validation of the queries (which we define as annotated structs), and also, when the service starts up, it validates that the schema that the service has agrees with the schema the database has. Insofar a making sure that if you say `WHERE id = ?`, and you pass a i32 but it wanted a String, the service will not start.

It also does request coalescing and tracing/telemetry, and will soon do rate limiting, circuit breaking and speculative retries as well.
That's quite the wall of text. Thank you for not putting it all in a comment. I didn't realize the profile has such a high limit.

I haven't used Thunderbird in 10-20 years. Why does Thunderbird allow you do that, but not Gmail? My personal Gmail account has ~350 folders (labels) and ~300 filter rules. One of my previous work GSuite accounts had probably 1000-2000 labels and filters.

I migrated from Outlook to Gmail, and I found that I could process 2-4X the amount of emails as I could on Outlook. The key feature for me was the vi-key bindings in Gmail.
In my opinion, for someone his age that’s essentially a victory if it doesn’t involve any payments or criminal repercussions. In theory, marcan42 would have been subject to a very similar or same settlement but he went on to continue working on Sony stuff without repercussion:

“In 2016, he ported Linux to the PlayStation 4 and demonstrated that at the 33rd Chaos Communication Congress by running Steam inside Linux.”

Considering that Sony’s primary claims were:

Violating the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 1201)

Violating the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (18 U.S.C. § 1030(a)(2)(c))

Contributory copyright infringement (17 U.S.C. § 501)

Violating California Comprehensive Computer Data Access and Fraud Act (§ 502)

I’d say that the outcome failed to reflect Sony’s perspective on the situation and much more closely aligns with “George Hotz faced nearly no actual consequences”.
This is a huge embarrassment for GitHub.

Yikes.
I can't speak generally, but looking at the court filings for this suit, it is relating to techniques for retrofitting stuff onto vehicles, so I imagine merely the installation instructions for comma.ai would be enough to tell them what they need to know.

I don't really know though, my eyes glaze over when I read patents and think about patent law.
> Something has deeply deeply changed in society for a fertility rate to go from 6 to 0.8 in 60 years

Does the change necessarily have to be societal?

> In 1992, a study found a global 50% decline in sperm counts in men over the previous 60 years. Multiple studies over subsequent years confirmed that initial finding, including a 2017 paper showing a 50% to 60% decline in sperm concentration between 1973 and 2011 in men from around the world.
These studies, though important, focused on sperm concentration or total sperm count. So in 2019, a team of researchers decided to focus on the more powerful total motile sperm count. They found that the proportion of men with a normal total motile sperm count had declined by approximately 10% over the previous 16 years.
The science is consistent: Men today produce fewer sperm than in the past, and the sperm are less healthy. The question, then, is what could be causing this decline in fertility[0].

I love and use JSON every day. I just don't philosophically believe that it's the right thing for configuration. Too much scope for making errors if done by hand.

And also if not doing it by hand, it means additional tooling to create the JSON file. Another layer to deal with with so many layers already.

Also Go's first class support for JSON is not a reason for supporting JSON in configuration files. Pretty much every language supports JSON anyway, so whether it's "first class" or "second class" does not really matter.

Anyway, we love and use Caddy here. We just don't use the JSON config file.
Since this article is mostly about Vivaldi, anyone had significant experience with it? I'm seeing it's based on Electron, weighs half a gigabyte, immediately requests notification permission and fires up a bunch of requests (including to Google's domains, probably safe browsing related) at startup. How does it fare in long-term use?

He's a different kind of troll in his own right but I love geohot and I want only the best for comma.ai. Give them hell.
That gets really dicey if you're storing the value of the index in a variable. Does the programmer need to know that if it's an INDEX they're storing that goes from 1-256 they can fit that into an 8-bit value because the compiler will magic away that last bit? Speaking of which, how will the compiler know which 1's are really 0's and which 256's are really 255's? Will it compile that 1+1=1 if I use that result as an index? Just having a 0th index is much simpler than all of that noise.
comma was profitable pre-investment, so Geohot has a lot of leeway to do what he wants.

Besides, there is no fiduciary requirement to handle situations like this in any particular way. Fiduciary duty is to keep the business operating. Maximizing profit and minimizing costs are generally good practices; but they are not (legally) fiduciary duties.

Over the past few years people have presented a lot of (seemingly credible, IMO) red flags that Tether could be something resembling a scam, and on the verge of a sudden "bankrun" at any moment. The consensus opinion, at least 6 months ago, was that Tether = scam.

Yet they've survived the crypto crash, and their coin is still pegged to the dollar. I'm curious what people make of this? Have opinions changed?
These are infuriating.

Not really. They’ve been available for ages now but not much uptake. This happens periodically - there was an automatic Honda back in the 80s that also didn’t sell.

WHat has changed, at least in performance bikes (broadly stated) is autoblippers/quickshifters. A skill you could learn (clutch less shifts) of course but never as fast as these.
Totally hear your concerns!

There's this article "I Went Viral in the Bad Way" from a write from The Atlantic - https://newsletters.theatlantic.com/galaxy-brain/62fc502abcb.... He got criticized so hard for using an AI-generated in his newsletter instead of paying an artist to do the work. People's concerns are valid and real.

Yet, we can also imagine a future that "lower-level" artistic work can be achieved by AI, like blog article thumbnails, while higher-level artistic work will be done by artists, assisted by AI. Artists can get inspiration from AI artwork and reduce some tedious parts of their workflow.
It's easy to argue that spending $1M on deterrence once is cheaper than paying each patent troll who asks $10k.

It's also likely that this post is part of the defense strategy. If you were the patent troll, what would you do at this point - withdraw the claim and try again with an easier victim, or try to find out whether the "if this continues" part is true?
“This neighborhood of 50 lots can serve a maximum of 150 bedrooms, which for fairness shall be allocated by right at 3 BRs per lot.” That sounds like R1 zoning in effect, though not exactly.

You can't really comment on job posts on the (open-access) "Who's Hiring" threads, either. Every month, the mods have to waste a bunch of time zapping people who want to debate the merits of different companies that post there. If there was an easy way, without changing the UX of the site (something that happens very rarely here) to eliminate comments on those threads, so all you could do is post job ads, HN would probably do that too.
That’s… I genuinely want that on my headstone someday.

Isn't WebAssembly the clear answer here? You can bind to JavaScript so you can still have all that comes with a browser environment, while still being able to use a different language. Performance may not be as good depending on what you're doing, but it's certainly better than reinventing a whole UI framework in a canvas.

It is a bad thing if you like “more” and a manageable thing if you live in the US and don’t mind less.
I think you lost the context of the thread. I'm not suggesting they will spend billions on crypto. I'm suggesting they will use their regulatory teeth to compel USA companies that have already staked billions worth of their customers' ETH to comply with the sanctions on Tornado Cash addresses, consequences/slashing be damned. OFAC has lawyers on payroll, so this would literally be free for them.
And: it already does that for the open-access posts on the Who's Hiring threads, where the mods donate a bunch of time every month scrubbing tendentious comments off of posts from non-YC companies.
If it's in your budget I highly recommend test driving the Porsche Macan.

It has a screen but as far as I can tell it's not required for anything that doesn't implicitly require a screen (i.e. GPS).

Overall the car is amazingly well designed. The tactile experience is there, you can feel your way around everything without moving your eyes from the road/immediate dash area. It still has an analog clock. I also feel like there are a lot of advanced, car enthusiast friendly features I have yet to explore.

It's also a stupidly practical car. I've frequently loaded the back with cinder blocks and bricks, filled it with a small arboretum of house plants, drum sander, multiple bikes, small couches, etc. I feel a bit silly loading up a Porche at home depot, but boy does it do the job well.

And at the same time, when you're getting on the highway it has all the power you could want, and is just a blast to drive around at night on empty roads. Comfort wise it feels like it has exactly what you want, but nothing more.
I'd love to see new car manufacturers doing new things and appealing to different segments of the market, but I imagine there's so much barrier to entry, so many regulations to adhere to, that as a new car manufacturer it'd be near impossible to do anything new/different at this point, unless you're ready to throw billions into it; and even then, the regulations/laws are extensive enough that you'd end up making something 98% the same as what already existed.
