Maybe unpopular opinion - the people held at Guantanamo are responsible for killing humans via cowardly terrorists attacks, either indirectly or directly. The “art” they make while being held is simply their coping mechanism. If they truly want to be released, then worrying about what happens to their art should be the least of their worries. Their art should be a trivial concern in the grand scheme of things when compared to their potential freedom. They weren’t concerned about the innocent lives of men, women, and children they killed or plotted to kill. Why should anyone be concerned about their art?
I don't understand the distinction you are making.

Take a new program like "FELIX" - simplifying ways of checking for bioengineered threats.

IARPA funds that, and the research funded through that program can be found here: https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C47&q=N66...

From the look of it they funded 9 companies and institutions to do the research and their poster presentations can be found at the bottom of [1].

Water rights are a giant problem in the west.

I suspect the few feral govt will have to step in at some point to completely re-do the system.
are we? Your history of computing begins with Turing????? Turing--with generous help from the British military--merely followed up and finished (in effect stole and took credit for) what Babbage started and conceived but could not finish due to no financial or governmental support in his time (btw Babbage was no atheist). Turing was merely a functionally normal.

There is a difference between a functionally normal atheist (like Turing) and a genius theist like Descartes. When I say deficient--it is in this relative term. The atheist is merely functionally normal but in objective terms, still deficient. It is not atheism that leads to that, but the underlying low level of intelligence that leads to atheism. Fortunately, there's hope: the underlying low level is ARTIFICIALLY-induced. In other words, the human brain is capable of achieving higher intelligence levels even if it has been stuck in low levels for a long time.

Functional normality is being just intelligent enough to pull off the type of tasks that given training, both computers and chimpanzees could do--the functionally normal person is somewhere in between. The difference being, as I stated in my second paragraph, that with humans, you can go beyond and remove the artificial barrier to higher level of intelligence.

Ask any former atheist and they will be glad to tell you how they fully self-actualized and became smarter beyond their wildest dreams.
Society isn't paying subsidies to water rights holders. Water rights are property rights. Legally they can't just be taken away. You can complain that it shouldn't be that way, but that is the legal reality.

Literally second sentence in article:

By that point, Qasim had been in Guantanamo nearly half his life, aged 23 to 43. Like almost all the men sent there, he has never been charged with a crime.

Not even charged, not to mention convicted. Certainly no reason to believe he’s a terrorist that ruined someone’s lives. His was certainly ruined though. How much more should we ruin random lives for what I can only see as some sort of “revenge”?

For what it’s worth, artwork from Guantanamo is only valuable because of its terrible history as a torture site and imprisonment of innocent people - not because it’s known for holding guilty killer terrorists.
As someone venturing in Tauri as primarily a web dev, I can relate to this so much. Rust is great and Tauri has some stellar benefits, but until you really master the borrow mechanics, it slows you down so much.
The EU's enforcement of its regulations/directives is severely lacking (see the GDPR for an example) so in practice it doesn't really matter whether it's legal - the worst that will happen is a slap on the wrist in 5 years' time and if you're lucky, a fine worth a fraction of what the company earned by breaching the regulation.
I'm biased as I founded an oral microbiome testing company, but it's becoming more and more clear from these studies what an important role oral bacteria play in regulating our health - or contributing to disease. We know how damaging chronic inflammation is in the body, and over half of US adults have some form of gum disease. It's great to see more research being pursued in the field.

You don't put lawful combatants "on trial". In fact, it is illegal to do so under the Geneva Conventions.

Unlawful combatants, by contrast, are not entitled to a trial, and can even be executed on the spot if it seems advisable.

Being a lawful combatant requires, among other things, that the combatant wear a uniform or other insignia recognizable at a distance.

No uniform -> no POW rights has been the rule for a very, very long time.
Great idea — I can talk along and sound like Ben Shapiro.
At this point, anyone still be held has been proven to be directly or indirectly guilty of being involved in cowardly terrorist attacks intended to kill innocent men, women, and children. If you do some research, the ones still there have been confirmed.

> The shuttle o-rings were working exactly as designed.

This isn't true actually. From the very start the o-rings were not functioning as designed even in warm weather. They realized even before the first shuttle launch that the o-rings weren't compressed properly and were being partially extruded through the SRB joints when fired, and allowed some gas to escape out the joint around the o-ring, causing partial o-ring erosion. NASA decided not to worry about it and continue with the design. Turns out this problem was even worse during cold weather...

Aren’t there secondary costs to not watering lawns and whatnots? What happens to trees that were used to drawing from the ground replenished with sprinkler water?

Also, at least some of the water for lawns goes back into the aquifer, effectively recycling it.

At the end of the day, all water, even water used for irrigation or watering lawns is recycled.

Ask HN: Docker in WSL vs. Docker on MacBook M1?
Hi all,

Been developing in WSL2 for various things like Ruby/Rails, Elixir, Python, and even some Android development for quite some time. However, I came across the new Apple Silicon M1 Chip and heard a lot of positive things about it. I wanted to purchase a device for my side projects so trying to get some insight on what your experience has been on this "new" platform.

My work heavily involves Docker, and I have always known that OSX never had a good support for it. I tried Docker for Mac on intel many many times in the past and it always was painfully slow and not of much use.

People who have experience with Docker, and software development on the new M1 platform, can you comment on differences compared to WSL2? I really liked my experience with WSL2 and it has always been a breeze to have a Linux machine live right in my Windows.

Thank you!
Hence my point, the problems I have are with the provider, not the client.

> the perperators will get to live lavish lives off the proceeds of their artwork once released

The US has released some people from Guantanamo, saying they picked up the wrong person. Of course such things happen when people are imprisoned without trial, which is against even US law. They have never been given a trial, nor are they considered POWs, and some have been released when the US realized they got the wrong person, yet you piously and sanctimoniously desire to punish them even beyond the illegal punishment they've been meted.
I think the regular Chinese folks are great, however the CCP is a very bad organization that is orthogonal to your average Chinese person on the street.

I feel like the author answered their own problem. They say:

“Someone else created a very similar app. This person modded the old app before, is for sure more active in the community and has far more knowledge in the game. He has a better legacy and he deserves it.”

Then the author says:

“I don't like people catching attention. I don't want attention to my person. I don't want some "Look at him!"-moments. I want "Look at this!"-moments.“

And yet the author did a ”Look at him!” to the competition. Others are probably doing the same thing and that’s why their work is getting attention. Maybe somewhere in this introspection lies the answer.

If you feel you have something others may find useful, just mention it. You’re doing yourself and others a disservice by not doing so. What’s the worst that can happen when mentioning your app has that feature people are requesting? You have to start somewhere.
I mine ETH with a lot of GPUs (let's just say a lot more than 50k). A recent release of the mining application that we use on each rig has a ~6% power (watts) improvement on GPUs released even 6 years ago (as well as an increase in hashrate). Installing the software and tuning the GPUs at my scale has been a huge undertaking, but totally worth it.
Commenting on someone creating a throwaway is also peak HN. Who cares? Maybe they have a reason?
You can still grow tomatoes outside California though, surely production would shift to a place with cheaper water? And if the prices are too high people would stop buying tomatoes.

I agree that the prices would not be exactly the same, my point is just that these prices are still extremely low. You don't need to fear people dying from dehydration (like the comment above suggested).
It's not like these people were found in a battlefield. Most of them were kidnapped from their homes in air raids. It's pretty hard to argue that they didn't have a legal right to trial.
Hah, thank you, that explains a mystery!

I had a motherboard (an ASUS ROG Strix B550-E) that would frequently freeze when I stood up from my chair. I always figured it was something to do with static electricity discharging when I stood up, but no amount of fiddling with grounding helped. An EMI pulse from the gas lift getting picked up somewhere insufficiently shielded would explain it.

Interestingly, I also have a Steelcase Leap chair, as mentioned by someone else in this thread; maybe the gas lift they use is particularly prone to this? Other people also complained about freezes with this motherboard model, so perhaps the combination was particularly bad.
To give some anecdata: I have been bitten twice by going to a .0 release with Postgres, once by index corruption and once by some subqueries returning wrong results in some cases.

I have since decided to always wait for a .1 with Postgres before updating.

The good news is that this is only a few weeks past the initial release.

Now if only more people upgraded during the RC phase already, then everybody could go to a .0 release.

And conversely, if everybody follows my (and your) advice, then .2 will be the new .1.

When biking having leftover reserves for the hill or the traffic lights saves a lot more time than using it up on the flat.

The actual output between a moderate effort and going as hard as you can is a 20-30% in terms of wattage, but that only translates to 5%-10% speed increase because the power required to overcome wind resistance scales with the third power of velocity. If that comes at a cost of a 5% power decrease (where power is proportional to velocity and you spend a greater amount of time per unit distance) on the hill because you're exhausted then the gains can wind up being minimal.

What in the world are you talking about? That's the entire point of blockchains, to have immutable records.

> the people held at Guantanamo are responsible for killing humans via cowardly terrorists attacks, either indirectly or directly.

The people held at Guantanamo Bay are not considered POWs by the US, nor have they been given a trial. They're held in violation of even US law. The US has let some go saying they picked up the wrong person. Who determined they are responsible for what you say they are responsible for? Even the US doesn't agree as they say they picked up some in error and let them go.

On top of this - for over half a century the country of Cuba has demanded the US withdraw its military base from Cuban territory. As US presidents piously intoned about Russian troops in Donetsk, that a sovereign nation wants US troops out of its territory is considered so unimportant it is practically unknown.
This would've been trashy in October of 2001 but is downright preposterous now.

There are good reasons why the legal system involves more process than just letting anyone who feels wronged do whatever they want to whoever they think might've been involved.
