Maybe I'm too software-development-oriented but I feel like the blocks are tantalizingly close to being ready for multi-user. EDIT: To the point of frustration with how things like that are still silo'd away. Seems like so much work has been done around like "concurrent editing" (Notion seems like a big improvement over Confluence here, but still seemed to be the same page-based world just with a better editor) but so little around what documentation are we actually building for teams?

In my head they're akin methods, and so in software that idea of "call this from lots of different places, edit it in a centralized way" concept is pretty well established.

In terms of "a single document flowing with a single voice" you can't necessarily do that from assembling an arbitrary collection of blocks like that, but for "good enough for effective in-corp collaboriation"? Sure!
May be an indication that web and mobile channels of your bank are not very good. You perceive it is safer (or easier) to go to a branch and get a funds transfer performed by a random semi-literate clerk, than using an app.

Banking apps are often confusing, dumb (can't predict/detect/anticipate) and struggle to authenticate a user securely, have low transaction limits, so clients resort to going into a branch, getting authenticated via a piece of colourful plastic by a random clerk and requiring a manual labor to perform pretty simple operations such as funds transfer.
and yet when anyone in the US suggests single player healthcare, higher income taxes, or more restraints on corporations, they get accused of being socialist.
That's why theturtletalks should apply to YC first! I'm sure YC would love to fund an open-source Amazon competitor if they believed in the execution enough to give it, say, a 1% chance of success (or even much less than that, given Amazon's size).

That "bank of VC fund" you speak probably looks at a startup like this very differently after they've been through YC, not just because of YC's reputation but also because YC can do a lot to help a startup like this after funding it.
This looks super exiting. Can you be a bit more detailed about what you are looking for in candidates?
In addition to pioneering the majority of the ways phones are locked down, they also lost a lawsuit for degrading the performance of older phones with those updates. So it's not really a good thing?

We want to be able to replace the battery ourselves cheaply with third party batteries if we want, or carry spares, and update the drivers and OS indefinitely, even if we have to do it ourselves. We want to replace a screen, or a board without getting our property bricked.

Did you know you can embed code blocks in HTML without escaping anything? You put them inside <script> tag with type="text/html". Then you style such tags to be visible and preserve whitespace. E.g.:

<script type="text/plain">

It goes further back, actually—IIRC there was a DoTA custom map on StarCraft: Brood Wars. It has no resemblance to the DoTA of today, or even the one on Warcraft, but the lineage of that game goes back further than a lot of people are aware of. :)
I got 400mg ibuprofen for 3 days and was fine. The surgery was also local anesthesia.

I know you can consume cannabis orally, but I think smoking wouldn't be good either, since it can cause dry socket.

I think in most cases, Ibuprofen would be enough.
I imagine they mean when you work with some high bandwidth channel with another developer, and work independently on the same thing.
This would amount to banning essentially all casino games except blackjack and video poker, and would remove all decision-making from those games, forcing everyone to play perfect basic strategy or close to it.

I think gambling should be illegal, so I’d be happy for such a suggestion to be implemented, but it’s basically a more complicated and indirect way to just ban casinos outright.
Covid showed us cramping many people together creates opportunities for disease to spread quickly. Science has shown the vaccine once had an effect but that is no longer the case. You can't take a booster and expect not to get covid.

Those hoping to stop the spread of covid are at odds with those trying to cramp people together. Just like those in hollywood who speakout against gun culture while appearing and promoting firearm use in the entertainment they produce.

Faster, simpler tailwind prototyping: create-vite-tailwind
I found myself frustrated with the headache involved in getting a simple web app with hot refresh and full JIT tailwind working. One of tailwind's big advantages is its speed, so why not pair it up with vite? Using this boilerplate you can go from zero to styling in record time.

Maybe we should have been extremely careful with how those energy resources were used instead of just using them for whatever or as if they'd never run out or have any externalities. Doing this in a way that's in the best interest of humanity, without repeating the mistakes of communism will be an interesting challenge for humanity in the decades ahead. That is assuming we don't develop some deus ex machina like cheap fusion power.
I guess 70% of SK land (shape) is not that flat, that's why it's also harder to fix (wonder why having underground apartments like this in the first place). Getting 0.2% of population out of this underground living should be doable quickly..

Correct. There can only be one top algo/coin per class of hardware.

Once ETH PoS happens, ETC will be the top GPU coin (at least to start) and the deposit times should go back down again.

One thing ETC has going for it is that the algo is the same as ETH. Very large farms will struggle to retune GPUs for different algo workloads. There is also the issue of different power requirements too.
So let's not even give them the chance? Ridiculous.

Machines are so well designed, yet other cities refuse to copy them. Septa in philadelphia finally switched to smart cards a few years ago, but the card machines are not nearly as responsive or easy to use as metro card machines. All they had to do is buy the same machines and change the label, but no.

In particular, metro card touch screens actually respond when you touch them. Quickly, accurately, reliably. The septa machines, despite being many years newer, consistently miss touches and take several seconds to process each input.

A social media account with a couple million followers i.e. https://www.instagram.com/lilmiquela/?hl=en

The creator doesn't need Al Pacino. I'm not following this one. Rick and Morty doesn't need Angelina Jolie

> Reality is that there's plenty of ideas, true, that would not make any money though.

Plenty of websites, 99.999% of them don't make any money. I definitely still think the easier it is to make a website the better.

> Rick and Morty costs 1.5 million dollars per episode and from what we've heard from director Erica Hayes, a single episode takes anywhere between 9 and 12 months to create from ideation to completion

If that includes marketing and advertising, that's amazingly cheap. Cut the creation time down to a few weeks, throw in a few product placements, post it on your social media/youtube/etc and you have your own movie studio.

You could have something like that supplies heat to a building by nuclear decay, but generating useful amounts of electricity from relatively small temperature differences is hard. You could theoretically have a steam-generating nuclear reactor in a building, similar to what you'd find in a nuclear-powered submarine, but it wouldn't be small or safe or simple, and it would require large amounts of cold water.

Small research reactors exist, but they tend to generate in the neighborhood of tens of watts.
I think GP means create your account on these sites before a fraudster does it for you. I.e., if you already have an account, they need your login credentials to access your account. But, if you have not established an account, they can often establish a new account using nothing but publicly available data like your birthday and street address for identity verification, then access your data (IRS experienced a lot of fraudulent accounts being created to steal peoples' tax refunds; their new verification system is less susceptible, but IMO too invasive [biometric data]).
Hey, you would be free to fork of to your own little chain that nobody uses. You can always do that.

From a western perspective, everything people say about the Chinese (regarding culture, "bad products", cheap immitations, low quality, and so on) had been said about the Japanese in the 50s to 70s, the Taiwanese 80s to 90s, and the Koreans 90s to 00ss. In all cases it was followed by "they are now better and cheaper than us" and "they take our jobs".

Besides, this discussion is not about their respective cultures in general, but about manufacturing styles and working conditions, which are indeed, and even by necessity, similar.

Not that they don't also have shared history, interactions and cultural exchanges going back thousands of years. So, yeah, even that would be more like comparing Argentina and Uruguay, or comparing US and Canada, or France and Belgium, and so on, than some unfathomable comparison.

Eh, it's not unusual for a manager to have some meetings where their attendance is appreciated but not critical - and a wealth of important non-meeting work.

The site safety group needs the imprimatur of a senior leader as important safety matters deserve to be taken seriously - but half their time is spent on carpark speed limits and toasters setting the fire alarm off.

Less experienced managers need a forum where, if there's a part of the management role they're not familiar with, they can get advice. That forum needs some veteran managers - but it needn't be me every week.

Meanwhile, plenty of non-meeting work is very important - a manager also needs to chase up resources their subordinates need. Explain corporate policies and procedures. Approve holidays and expense claims. Review resumes and perform interviews. Evaluate and improve operating procedures. Gather data to support prioritisation decisions. Plan for promotions and raises. And be available for ad-hoc consultation on technical and workplace questions. Make sure employees are filling out their timesheets and doing their mandatory training. And of course answer whatever chat messages or e-mails come in from the guy who signs my raise letters.

And that's for a nontechnical manager - if the manager also wants to be making architectural decisions, doing code reviews, approving production change requests and planning the future roadmap for the product? Well, that's all more non-meeting work.
Another way to frame it (from the opposite direction) is a collective failure on "our" part (if there is such a thing as "us") to explore and promote genuinely interesting things just because they lack the sparkle of click bait on the outer surface.

Maybe it isn't that we "fall for" click bait, it's that we very loudly ignore stuff that isn't.

Slight correction: blackjack is also possible to play with positive value for the player[1], and casinos routinely ban blackjack players for being too skilled. It’s also much easier to play blackjack with positive EV than to bet on sports, but it’s also trivial to detect if surveillance is paying attention, so the real game is avoiding surveillance in various ways, e.g. by never staying at the same casino for long.

1: technically this depends on the exact rules, most notably (1) how much is paid out for a blackjack (3:2 is ok, 6:5 is unplayable) and (2) “penetration”, i.e. how many cards are dealt from a shoe before a reshuffle. But it’s still very easy to find blackjack games with beatable rules.
Agreed. Every logistics partner I ever dealt with was another layer that you did not have full control of, and each had their problems.

Amazon's in-house logistics gets cheaper with scale. Waiting for the day Amazon launches their offerings to C2C and B2C delivery to directly compete with UPS and Fedex.

Amazon's in-house logistics, plus their ability to co-mingle this entire layer will be hard beat.
Pretty sure node runners would prefer a UASF to hybrid PoS or at least a different PoW algo over constant 51% attacks.

Why stop at gambling?

Excessive gaming can also lead to social harm so obviously we're going to want to make sure that we have consoles that turn off after a certain duration of time allowing for a daily maximal quota.

I'm all for advocation in terms of education but that's the line, it's not the states responsibility nor anywhere in their purview to impose regulations on how a person chooses to spend their time. It's deeply frightening how easily people advocate for these things without realizing that establishing precedent can quickly lead to the infringement of civil liberties.
Thanks for at least considering it!

It looks like jobs which have lots of physical labor are generally correlated with other traits that tend to lower lifespan, so people who do lots of physical labor do end up dying earlier. Mea culpa.

On the other hand, if you control for lifestyle, the people who do physical labor live longer.

It is wrong. It is conflating two things: market cap and total vulnerable funds in a reorg. Doing a 51% attack isn't free range to steal any bitcoin, all you can do is reverse a recent transaction. And in practice it needs to be very recent (like within the last hour) to be pulled off.

Let's work out an actual attack: I send 1000 btc to an exchange, let it confirm, exchange for something else (Ethereum, let's say) and withdraw. Once my ethereum withdraw is seen on that network, I start 51% attacking the bitcoin chain and unwind the dozen or so blocks that have occurred since I sent the deposit. Maybe this attack costs me 500 btc, but in doing so I get my 1000 btc back. So I effectively bought that ethereum at half price by defrauding the exchange. It needs to be a lot of currency because the 500 btc price of the reorg (made up number!) is a fixed cost, independent of the value of the transaction I'm reversing.

The total market cap of bitcoin doesn't enter into this. The most value I can obtain is the lesser of (1) how much bitcoin I have, and (2) what limit the exchange places on deposits. Exchanges (or other trading partners) can put a hold or delay on high-value deposits, which completely mitigates this attack.

Now the expense of the attack is dependent on the mining revenue per block. So if the mining revenue per block is $300k or so, to use a number from the article, then exchanges and other users of bitcoin should require extra confirmations for transactions > $1MM or so.

I don't know about you, but I think it's perfectly acceptable to say that settling a transaction worth $500MM will require waiting for at least a day's worth of confirmations. And that's all that's required to prevent this attack from being profitable at scale.
Really?! Am I unusual for not being even a little bit tempted to drive like an asshole just because I don't own the car I'm driving and have a damage waiver through my credit card?

The worse maintenance a rental agency does, the more likely customers experience problems, never rent from them again, and trash them in reviews. I'd say there's plenty of incentive to do more than the bare minimum of maintenance.
I like to search and replace 'cannabis' with 'cake'. It has been a while since I have baked a cake but there is only an absence of a cake tin to stop me doing that now.

Cake has sugar in it and I am addicted to sugar. I can talk about sugar with my doctor, he can ask me how many cakes I am scoffing and answer almost honestly.

Unlike most food there is VAT on cake. If I make my own cake I deprive the tax man but I did pay tax on the cake tin, the electricity and the chocolate.

I could make cake and sell it to my workmates, putting that vending machine out of business, partially since I am not yet frying 'crisps'.

Imaginably HR could be onto me after a while, the stern email would arrive and a multitude of issues relating to the validity of my 'food hygiene certificate' could come to the fore. But I would still be fine bringing in cake for a workmate's birthday.

Really cannabis needs to be something you can do at home without anyone coming for you. If you want to spend months growing plants then you are probably going to learn more about horticulture and get significant benefits from just doing that, growing plants. Much like making a cake, there is enjoyment in the baking that is separate to the eating.

This might be fun to do as a student but, in a world where one can't be bothered to bake a cake, I imagine people will move on with their lives and not have a mini cannabis plantation at home.

It used to be the same with beer, you could brew your own at home with much fun to be had perfecting your brew. There is nothing to stop you doing that now, however, the kit is not generally sold on the High Street like it used to be - people stopped bothering, they just buy booze rather than brew.

If you are growing your own weed and medicating for pain or childhood trauma, you should be able to tell your doctor, much like how you can discuss alcohol or sugar consumption. In that way we can better understand these things.

Getting back to the article with search and replace on, the active ingredient for cakes and beer is yeast or a yeast substitute. I can't see how sales of yeast or sugar for home grown cake/beer making can affect the stock value of the big industrial food concerns or brewers.

> not depending on another for livelihood or subsistence

Unless your journalists are hunter-gatherers living in the woods, they depend on someone for subsistence. Even if it is just their readers. But probably also their editor, boss, colleagues, government, philanthropic donors, etc. We all live in a society, we all depend on the people around us.

And we all deserve the human right to free expression. If bad people don't get human rights, then the whole concept of human rights is meaningless.
As your comment implies, the HN guidelines don't have much to do with being right or being wrong. They're mostly about how to behave when one is right (or feels one is), or someone else is wrong (or one feels they are). Feeling right is what makes people feel like it's ok to be snarky or mean.

(edit: people often say "but I'm just pointing out facts—but this is plainly not a good argument - https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu....)

Truth is what we're after, so posting right things and correcting wrong things is important. Yet if you think about it, it's neither a sufficient condition for a good HN post, nor a necessary one.

It isn't sufficient because people sometimes express true things in aggressive ways that damage the container and end up discrediting the truth*. That hurts all of us.

It isn't a necessary condition, either, because people are often wrong in good faith, with the intention of finding the truth. There certainly shouldn't be a rule against that. Freedom to make mistakes is essential to curiosity and key to finding the truth in the end. Such a rule would also be impossible to enforce—we don't have a truth meter.

That cheaper natural gas is already flowing north quite a lot, either by lng ship where available, or under the form of natural gas generated electricity.

It makes a lot of sense to lower domestic natural gas heating consumption in Spain in favour of heat pumps:

- Heat pumps are more efficient further southwest in Europe.

- More will be left to substitute Russian natural gas elsewhere in the EU.
