> So you want people to continue publish racist, misogynistic etc. assumptions and implications? Want to understand what your goal is here.

"racist, misogynistic etc. assumptions and implications" is very broad and vague and I don't trust that my understanding of what qualifies as such is the same as that of the editors. My concern is that legitimate science will be suppressed in the name of "diversity, equity, and inclusion".

> There were scientific trials on poor and black people in the US without informed consent, because they were seen as lesser ... there were horrendous crimes against humanity done in the name of science. I think today it's better, yet you seem to disagree :)

I agree that performing trials on people without informed consent is unacceptable and should be prevented. Your attempt to conflate legitimate studies that may challenge the narrative of "diversity, equity, and inclusion" with inhumane trials performed without informed consent is fallacious.
People are going to hate on me, but web3 makes this absolutely trivial to build. If you try to build this as another centralized service, you just end up in the same place but a new dominant owner.

Don't get me wrong, there IS a wrong way to build this in web3 where it's just a web2 service on-chain. But designed correctly, it can avoid the pitfall.
Nim's new ARC gc, which will be default soon-ish in 2.0, does not have a "runtime" as commonly understood.

It is fully deterministic, so it simply injects alloc/free calls in the generated code at compile time. It even has an option that can show you where the calls are injected.

Thanks!

According to Phillips' book, his main innovation was designing the shaped charges that brought the halves of uranium/plutonium together at the right rate.

This he achieved by calling around at Dupont (IIRC) until he found someone with the knowledge, which was willingly shared. (Presumably this critical info was made inaccessible after the paper was graded.)

Freeman Dyson (who worked on the Manhattan Project and later at at IAS Princeton) reviewed Phillips' design, confiding to the course's professor, "Yes, this should work." Phillips' term paper was promptly classified. His only other feedback was to receive an A in the course.
Awesome details, super informative! Really interesting limitation you've mentioned about not being able to add in USB4. I hope this doesn't end up being true forever!! It's such an amazing set of capabilities; it'd suck to require them all to be built-in to the cpu/chipset.

Couldn't a discrete video card (which has a DisplayPort output) implement USB4?
we just saw this in the DFW area last week. 3 months of triple digit temps and zero precip followed by a single 24 hour period receiving 5-7" of rain. the ground was so hard, that it might as well have been concrete. that just allowed all of the water to run off into the streams that fed the lakes. fortunately, those lakes were well below normal levels, so this just helped them come back to where they were. if there were multiple days of that level of rain, a la Harvey, we'd have been really screwed.
Was just coming here to ask this - thanks for the info!
If you have complete AV block, a leadless pacemaker is less good than one with multiple leads, since it allows pacing multiple chambers and maintaining synchrony between A and V.
This is how it's supposed to work in the US.
It's not that it's suspect, it's that equivalent Rust code will not compile.

This is one of the things the borrow checker does, if something is atomic, you can't access it non-atomically, and this is assured at compile time.

The 'borrow checker up in arms' is the same thing as 'the type checker up in arms because I'm treating an integer like a string'.
If battery life doesn't improve much, I don't die prematurely, and I continue to materially benefit from having an implant, I personally could be realistically looking at 3 replacement devices and at least one lead replacement over the years. In the unlikely event that I suffer from ventricle enlargement long term, I'd need two more leads installed as well.
You and the poster you're responding to seem to be using a different definition of the word dangerous: the one above seems to be using more of the connotation of the word (point out that there's an acceptable level of risk involved with cars) and you're using the denotation (pointing out that people do die in cars).

To be clear, virtually every human activity is technically dangerous and there's a non-zero risk in almost any human activity. By the dictionary definition, owning a pool is technically dangerous because people drown and get hurt all of the time. Hell, a bucket causes a non-zero number of drowning deaths. People can die from blender accidents or shitting too hard or swallowing quarters or tripping to death on a power cord. Everything is technically dangerous.
While I still feel that swapping the Framework battery is easy, I completely agree with your comment and the preceding comment that it isn't "hot swappable" in any sense (nor swappable without opening the innards). My apologies for implying otherwise.
I absolutely love niche communities like this. Fountain pens, mechanical keyboards, even wetshaving - it's fun getting glimpses into how deep these rabbit holes go.
Thanks for sharing this. That certainly is a lot of water.
Ask HN: Are progressive web apps(PWA) as good as native apps now?
When Google pitched PWA, I being a web developer was quite excited. No need to build different apps for different platform, single app with all features of native app like Notification, works offline, installable etc

At present PWAs have most features which were planned. Still we don't see big names ditching native apps for PWAs. Companies which has good PWA(Twitter, Quora, Reddit) recommends user to switch to native app.

Which features are holding PWAs back from being as good as native apps?
Anything requiring physical presence/action, since you said "AI", not "AI plus robotics".

For anything in the top ~1% of the human social ladder - you can count on the politicians, plutocrats, etc. who make the rules in human society being extremely reluctant to allow AI's to start replacing their own kind.

Your "can't ever" is too ambiguous. If "ever" allows thousands of years, then it's purely a philosophical/linguistic question. If you're mostly interested in credible threats to your own career, then it's more a technology/society question.

For my purposes it seems fine. I’ve not noticed any lagging, but then I don’t play games on it.

South korea is by far the biggest producer of nuclear plants. Their prices have gone down slightly after building dozens of plants, but nuclear is still more expensive than solar for them. Until we get a legitimate fission innovation plus the political will for deregulation nuclear prices will remain sky high.
I built my current desktop with the whole goal of being a tank of a VFIO setup and I have no regrets. Best of both worlds for me as I used to just have two separate computers.

They have in-house clothing designers as well that specifically tailor each garment before mass production. None of their merch from the past 2 years is "off the shelf" in any way.
> If you're manager of a lean team or startup, how have you effectively handled your or an employee's mat/pat leave when in reality, your biz is already short-staffed? Temporary promotions? Contractors? Spreading the work across the team?

I took two months of paternity leave in my funded startup of 2 people. I told my colleague (an experienced guy but nonetheless my subordinate) to take a 2 month vacation and said nothing to anyone else. It was fine. My wife is in a profession with 65hr actual weeks and it was the maximum time she had.

The reality is that in places that are big enough to have subordinates / tiers with enough autonomy, it doesn’t really matter.

Your work is going to seem so easy compared to the baby. Especially because you go from working like 10-20 real hours to 70.

That said, now is the time to find another job. Especially if you are going to start your leave before delivery. There is so much discrimination in workplaces against this “change of arrangement.” Every high powered intelligent new mom I know who came to their own conclusion to seek new work was delighted she did so.
Well, it depends, the i440FX chipset with an SB16 will run most if not all DOS games.
Now nothing, they don’t happen nearly enough to rethink our systems entirely. Let not perfect be the enemy of “good enough”.
Chrome and Slack are both resource hogs from hell. No one is arguing that the specific innards haven't changed a lot. They are arguing that for a lot of people, depending on what you are doing and what you need, can get by just fine on a laptop that is few years to 15 years old and be perfectly happy.

You are also trying to compare a laptop an entirely different architecture that literally just came out to the other.

I mean, honestly, there were plenty of "arm laptops" the past 20 years and a lot of them ran cold to the touch and got 16+ hours of battery life. I know as I had several (Psion netbooks etc). The new Macs are latest evolution of H/PCs that have been around for decades. They just happen to be much faster ;)
Good luck and I hope you succeed, but the (unfortunate) reality check I'll give you is that money rules everything, and if you get even the slightest bit of traction, there is more than a trillion dollars in market cap behind ensuring you (and nobody else) will ever succeed.

The only way to get ahead these days is to either 1) flout the laws or 2) have enough capital and political influence to force your way to success, such as with regulatory capture.
The Surface lineup has really unfortunate naming.

The Surface Go and the Surface Laptop Go are two completely different things!

The Surface Laptop Go is kind of a premium Chromebook-type thing that runs Windows (but can do Linux just fine). And it has AVX-512!

This is a fantastic idea, and you're off to a great start.

I've spent 6 years building a similar thing for local business in my area, just not quite this polished and expansive.

It can be made close enough by train travel. There are other factors to consider than just carbon emissions, the most carbon reducing action would simply be to wipe out humanity but we probably don’t want that.

You can't make this up.

We currently have two problems:

1: Inflation is rampant because the governments spent so much on fighting Covid.

2: Covid variants are still spreading.

No, it's not. USB-C doesn't have anywhere near the appropriate amount of creepage/clearance allowance for something high voltage enough to handle 3kW. The only way to handle 3kW is a cable is to completely change the port, at which point it's no longer USB-C.
I think right now this Isn’t possible with “normal” Spring because Spring and various other libraries you’ll normally use make heavy use of reflection.

Frameworks like Quarkus and Micronaut have been written with native in mind and I think Spring is also working on it (Spring Native).
Nuclear is a political loser. Making it affordable requires massive deregulation which will absolutely end up costing votes, and it'll only show benefits after a decade, so no politician will support it.
I wonder how Amazon views this internally. Is it a "failure", resulting from an $AMZN corp employee or group being ineffective at their "job" to ensure worker unionization is suppressed and not achieved?
> And finally I think that taxes mostly limit social mobility by putting a cap on what you can do with the money you’ve earned

Now imagine you don't pay taxes and want to move from New York to San Francisco.

Well man, you know what? You did not pay for this road, so for you it's... let's see... 17,433.25 dollars. Paid in advance, thanks.

---

You're from a lower social class, you go to work using public, ehm, sorry, collective transport (it is a private service), because you can't afford to own a car and the gas is so expensive!

And those roads tariffs! they don't care how much you earn, they are the same to everyone, for you as for the richest man in the Country.

Every month you have to pay 400 dollars to the collective transport company, they need to raise the money for building and maintaining the infrastructure and to pay their employees.

You have been thinking about asking for a salary raise, but you've overheard management say "people coming to work with collective transport are often late, thank god there are good workers using cars, those are the ones we should promote"

So you're now thinking about getting into debts to buy a car and gamble or play it safe and accept your salary.

Would it favour social mobility?

> I moved from Europe to a place with significantly lower taxes, I have a lot more to put on the side every month

No shit Sherlock!!!

You know what else helped me to put a lot more on the side every month?

Accepting job offers that paid more than the one I had!

Incredible, isn't it?

Try being born there in the same conditions your family was when you were born and then you can compare the two situations.

Anyway what was your Country in Europe?

Because if your family could afford to pay your studies in USA, in Europe you could have lived as a king with that kind of money.

OF COURSE if you only think about yourself, being surrounded by people that pay for you while you enjoy the money you earn it's wunderbar!

Not caring about other people's well being, that also is a big relief.

But it has nothing to do with justice, let alone being part of a larger community, called society, that's simply "Homo homini lupus"

I really like the look of the site. And seems like wonderful work.

I see no base for your claim however: "This model can be used to disrupt any marketplace from AirBNB to UberEats".

A tech stack is hardly what makes platforms, it's the consumer side of things that disrupts.

So just to make it more fair to the suppliers of the marketplace would not really lead to a disruption imo. Not saying it's not worth it.
> My question is, what can we do to fight such oppressive surveillance mechanisms as individuals? Beyond the standard donation to EFF and such.

I don't think there is much beyond that to be honest. Those people are the experts and, honestly, a big difference between this country and those that we would not like to become is that we are able to make such a donation without repercussion.

In a lot of other places, such activism would have severe consequences.

> At least a single volcanic eruption is not enough to change the long-term climate trend, you need a clusters of eruptions to persist through centuries for that.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1883_eruption_of_Krakatoa

“
The eruption caused a volcanic winter.[17] In the year following the eruption, average Northern Hemisphere summer temperatures fell by 0.4 °C (0.72 °F).[18] The record rainfall that hit Southern California during the water year from July 1883 to June 1884 – Los Angeles received 970 millimetres (38.18 in) and San Diego 660 millimetres (25.97 in)[19] – has been attributed to the Krakatoa eruption.[20] There was no El Niño during that period as is normal when heavy rain occurs in Southern California,[21] but many scientists doubt that there was a causal relationship.[22]

The eruption injected an unusually large amount of sulfur dioxide (SO2) gas high into the stratosphere, which was subsequently transported by high-level winds all over the planet. This led to a global increase in sulfuric acid (H2SO4) concentration in high-level cirrus clouds. The resulting increase in cloud reflectivity (or albedo) reflected more incoming light from the sun than usual, and cooled the entire planet until the sulfur fell to the ground as acid precipitation.[23]
“.

Yes, I’m aware of “but many scientists doubt that there was a causal relationship” regarding the rain but the climate has been affected by a single eruption.
Keep fooling yourself.

To be fair, the Ashley Biden diary was a pretext to slam them with the FBI. Veritas didn't publish anything from the diary. Other organizations did publish and they are not being pursued by the DOJ. You are saying that you don't like how they do things and that disqualifies any information that they deliver. However, is it fair to say you equally disqualify sources you agree with for their methods?

Are you saying that despite the evidence they provide, (which really, despite all the editing in the world cannot be misconstrued) you do not believe that the things they claim are occurring?

It's not playing nice because the media organizations are not being honest.

It's unsightly to have the ways one side cheats exposed, but do you really choose to believe they just don't cheat?
It's worse when you consider basic foundations of the system such as healthcare have been declining for a while. What are they even doing with all that money?
Show HN: Compare movie ratings (certifications) between countries
I recently moved to Germany, with kids (teens & pre-teens), where Netflix etc. show movie's ratings with the local rating/certification system. This led to questions from my kids about what they could watch.

I made this page to get a better understanding of how the German ratings map to US ratings. Since I was downloading data from anyways, I just made it able to compare between all the countries I got data for.

There's a Github link at the bottom of the page in case you want to pull your own data or load in data for other countries.
Certainly not by pretending those issues are a thing of the past, which is what this article is doing.
Sort of. Outside of industrial or businesses, my understanding is that it is rare to see multi-phase power (400V) used in power applications. You may get 3 phases into your house, but the phases are used separately (each at 240V) for most things in residential.
That is way too short! Should be at least a year or two imho but I can see why more and more companies are covertly avoiding hiring women and why professional women avoid pregnancy. In some places, taking such leave could affect your career, so much that when women get married they opt to not have children or give up their careers altogether, leading to decline in birth rates (ex. Korea, Japan)

There should be more subsidies and tax incentives for companies to provide longer mat/pat leave.
You missed one thing.

Once your location pops up in one of these things you are now a "person of interest" which is just a fancy way for the police to avoid saying "suspect"

You are now in a position forced to defend yourself from guilt rather than them finding something that points to you. Everything about police work is motivated towards finding a reason to pin guilt on you. Nothing is about exonerating you.

The idea isn't that the team will have an identical quantity and quality of output, but that everything will keep working smoothly at an appropriate pace. Deprecating yourself refers to not being a hoarder of information, decisions and all the other nasty ways in which people try to make themselves indispensable. Your team should always benefit from you being there, but your absence should never make the team fall apart and stop working effectively.
