If they want it to spread they should also write a fuse implementation and think about operating system support for Linux or BSD.
I'm not a lawyer and I haven't read the Apache license lately, but I think it's a permissive enough license that they probably can sub/relicense it as long as they keep everybody's copyright notices intact. That is, effectively just leave all the code under the Apache license but also add additional terms and conditions because it doesn't prohibit that. This is in sharp contrast to, say, GPL, which would have prevented such a maneuver. (Or, as a sibling, notes, if they required a CLA then they legitimately have the ability to relicense everything at will.)
Hahaha! This one does!
At least in the US, there are regulations for placement of a propane tank that depends, among other things, size and capacity of the tank.
the main downside of it is that it is very slow. Julia can always use more compiler people, but if anyone wants to work on a faster, less debug-oriented interpreter for Julia, that would be a really valuable project.
And we others here too? :-)
look at market shares over time. initially you have innovation. then many entrants fight for it. then one wins.

google is search monopoly

amazon has ecommerce and AWS.

netflix was innovator, middle period.

apple is taking 80% of profits in mobile. middle period.

tesla/electric cars is in beginning.
> This kind of thinking is called collective punishment and ordinarily is discussed as a human rights violation.

Yes, Russia bombing civilians in Ukraine certainly is a human right violation indeed, that's the collective punishment Russia's government is imposing on Ukrainians citizens.

Russia is punishing its own citizens as well they'll have to collectively pay Ukraine back of all the destruction their government caused, for the centuries to come, after Putin is long dead.
Not sure if this is what happened here but demographic / ethnicity questions often have a 'prefer not to say' option.
There’s a simpler explanation of the algorithm, without complex numbers. That value being computed is a signed angle of the curve, as viewed from the points on the plane.

When the point is inside the curve, that viewing angle is full circle = ±2·π radians. Doesn’t matter where you look, the line of sight will intersect the curve in even count of points. The sign depends on the winding order of the curve i.e. whether it winds clockwise or counter-clockwise.

Similarly, when the point is outside, that viewing angle is zero. Doesn’t matter where you look, the line of sight won’t intersect the curve, or it intersect the curve in even count of points, equal count in clockwise and counterclockwise directions.

BTW, the algorithm can be generalized to surfaces in 3D. The angle becomes a solid angle [1]. For points inside the surface that sum for the complete surface will be full sphere = ±4·π steradian, for points outside of the surface the sum will be zero. Particularly good for polygonal meshes, a single loop over faces of the mesh computes that signed solid angle.

> the rules of the site explicitly forbid harassing or interacting so that's going to be quite a claim

Not really; showing that rules like that are conscious fig leaves and actually indicators of knowledge and intent is... not at all uncommon. Lots of sites taken down by law enforcement for deliberate facilitation of prostitution or human trafficking had “don’t use this platform for prostitution/trafficking” rules, too.
Electric fields in the earth's surface can reach 100V/m you can take two large sheets of metal place them a meter apart vertically and a multimeter between them will read around 100 volts .
I have never read up much on Tesla , sure he was a brilliant inventor , but some of the claims seem to far fetched , did he really understand the theory well enough or were most of his "experiments" let's toss this stuff together and see what's happens and make grand claims of free electricity , efficient turbines and long distance wireless transmission
The problem with your example is the engineers have built exactly what the company wanted. Perhaps the mental illness was an unintended side effect (perhaps known). But either way a decision was made that they want X and so the engineers built X. What you're talking about is banning X, which is something a bit difference than a governance burden/compliance issue as those can generally be followed to a specification and directly measured for deficiency (eg. how to handle HIPAA data, how long to store records, etc.)

If the issue is about teenagers being too immature for the product X, then typically we ban it or age restrict it using legislation (eg tobacco, alcohol, porn, etc)

I think we as a society need to figure out where social media fits in and how we want to contain it and it's still early days for that. As much as I like the idea of an age restriction, I look around the world and see 6 month olds playing with iPads, 6 year olds on tiktok, etc. as the more 'average' way to parent and wonder if I'm in the minority. My kid is 4 and has never touched a device as entertainment, we taught him how to eat out at restaurants/be in public instead of pacifying him. But that seems like an old fashioned parenting method.

Ok, he's technically used it briefly as a viewfinder for the camera and to facetime his grandparents
To be clear, I wouldn't tell you to live differently! Not a minimalist here. I also have stuff-intensive hobbies.

I've just found it useful to stop and consider alternatives before spending money, moreso than people are encouraged to do by modern e-commerce platforms with teflon-coated conversion funnels.
Climate tech doesn't fit the YC model (and tech VC model in general) at all. Projects are too unpredictable and hard to judge. They need many orders of magnitude greater investment to get started than a seed fund can provide. And tech VCs can't really contribute any business expertise in the area.

It's a lot easier to fund a hundred B2B SaaS apps and wait for a handful of them to return 1000x in 5 years.
Google already lost the "how-to" competition.

* If you "how-to" a recipe here's a 3000 word blog post with a dozen interweaved videos and a life story at the beginning.

* If you want a "how-to" Youtube video here's a 10:01 video because gosh darn we need to hit that time count to maximize ad revenue, don't forget to smash the like button it really helps my channel

A 12 second TikTok short or searching reddit via a third party app are both terrible alternatives that are nonetheless vastly better then Google's current offering for some meaningful searches.
> I would posit a guess that most, if not all, engineers on HN have had to live through at least one terrible manager that has soured/tainted the position.

FWIW, all my engineering managers have been great.

> Oh please, there's a reason why those comments exist - because more terrible managers exist than those "good ones"

I guess that's just your experience? Just because you've had a few bad apples doesn't mean all engineering managers are terrible.

> present an aura of superiority

Sounds like you're just projecting your experience onto other folks.
Hiring one person to do this at a company this scale, will give you results in the next decade. BTW, when the report is complete, it will no longer be accurate. Sure you can scale the process by putting more people on it, but it won't scale linearly. Additionally you will need buy in from all the system managers to dedicate time to assist the new data privacy team. It is doable, but comes at a cost.
As I recall, I signed up for the beta, so maybe they removed this requirement after release. I deleted Brave, and I was pretty sure it was for this reason. I just re-downloaded it and installed it, and sure enough there was no log-in requirement.

Was there some other privacy-touting or "alternative" browser that came out in the last couple of years?

One thing I did find annoying after installing it just now is that it doesn't import bookmarks from Safari, but rather only Firefox. It would be nice if it did; in fact it would be cool if some browser would do bi-directional bookmark syncing with Safari, to piggyback on iCloud syncing across devices.

Looking further it seems like there's a lot of logging practices that are worse than performing no action (assuming that the biomass provided doesn't offset something else, e.g. prevents coal from being burnt)
"Once they have the phone and the card, they register the card on the relevant bank's app on their own phone or computer. Since it is the first time that card will have been used on the new device, a one-off security passcode is demanded."

The 2FA code is sent to the stolen phone. If notification preview is on, the thief can see the 2FA code, even though they don't have access to the new phone.

So 1) thief steals card and phone. 2) Thief pretends to be victim and asks to register the stolen card on their own phone. 3) 2FA code is sent to stolen phone, but thief can see it due notification preview. 4) Card is registered on thief's phone and and now be used for fraud.
Really the only two dimensions that matter for development as a function are time to market at a sufficient quality, and resources needed to maintain the codebase at sufficient quality once delivered. Any metrics about individual devs needs to support one of those two group goals.

The fewest lines of codes is an ok metric in that it often means more maintainable. But it can mean less maintainable if it's too cute. It's a leading indicator, but you can just directly measure bug volume and time to resolve issues.

Faster code is an irrelevant distraction 90% of the time.

Sister comment mentioned DORA metrics, which I wasn't familiar with and look exactly right:

* Deployment Frequency: Refers to the frequency of successful software releases to production.

* Lead Time for Changes: Captures the time between a code change commit and its deployable state.

* Mean Time to Recovery: Measures the time between an interruption due to deployment or system failure and full recovery.

* Change Failure Rate: Indicates how often a team’s changes or hotfixes lead to failures after the code has been deployed.

For a house-sized storage, you may want flow batteries. Handling gases is expensive and full of unexpected problems, while molten solids is relatively easy.

Hydrogen storage makes sense for a country, not for anything smaller. LNG storage may make sense for a city grid, if our tech advances. Anyway, you really don't want those on your backyard.

Anyway, even though they are simpler, flow batteries may create enough problems so that you don't want them on your backyard either. I will repeat the sibling that recommended just getting more panels.
I'm only going by the words that you wrote. You come hot out of the gate and people's reaction to that validates your internal drama where everyone's an enemy. But all we're talking about is your feelings at this point, so I'll just stop because that tangle really does escape me.

I disagree that people were spreading it in bad terms, if by that you mean the general public. Just look at what the officials actually said. Here’s March 2020:

> “You can increase your risk of getting it by wearing a mask if you are not a health care provider,” Surgeon General Jerome Adams said.

England’s chief medical officer, same month:

> Prof Whitty said: “In terms of wearing a mask, our advice is clear: that wearing a mask if you don’t have an infection reduces the risk almost not at all. So we do not advise that.”

Dr Fauci:

> “Right now, in the United States, people should not be walking around with masks,” said Dr. Anthony Fauci, an immunologist and a public face of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, on CBS’ “60 Minutes” earlier this month. He, like the others, suggested that masks could put users at risk by causing them to touch their face more often.

The WHO advised against it (to your point they did couch their language so much that it wasn’t even clear what they were really advising [1]).

And these are just the ones I could find quickly right now. From memory, the message was even stronger than this and even proliferated in this very forum. There was a time when you kind of had to duck and speak quietly if you wanted to bring up the idea that maybe this anti-mask thing wasn’t settled fact.

Regarding mass timber in a seismic area - http://nheri.ucsd.edu/projects/2017-development-validation-s... and http://nheritallwood.mines.edu

And the beam size gets into "don't design a concrete building and swap in mass timber". https://www.woodworks.org/resources/creating-efficient-struc...

Another aspect to the beams is that the structural elements are often left bare for aesthetics ( https://uploads.map-dynamics.com/0518_Structurlam-U.S.-Mass-... ).

Table 6 in https://www.structurlam.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Struc... gets into the snow loads and I don't know enough engineering to be able to do a comparison between mass timber and other building approaches.

The main thing to consider is this isn't a "it costs 2x" or "it uses 2x more materials" because they are different materials with different designs. If comparisons are to be done, they should be done at the building level ("it cost X to make a N story building with M square feet per floor" and "building A had a sustainability rating of P while building B was rated at Q with a difference in cost of Z%").
It does. At least, according to this source:

Renewables and Nuclear make up about 50% of the total. It may very well grow, but there will be a time lag because French institutions are not known for their expedience.
Especially with the benefit of hindsight, imagine thinking that the reason why Google+ failed was because the engineers weren't working enough hours.

It seems like the Baraag and Pawoo (I think run by Pixiv) instances both host very... uh... vibrant pornographic, and sex positive art communities, and it is convenient for those users as Tumblr banned them all, Twitter patchily bans explicit content periodically (JP users get a much looser leash than EN it seems) and DeviantArt forbids anything more explicit than artistic nudes.

I don't use it, mainly because I'm unclear of what the implications of choosing an instance are. I have a wide range of interests and I worry I'll be siloed if I choose just one.
No wonder the price is so low... all the miners just dumping on retail in order to make their capex back.

Agreed nothing more will come out of this.
When I was just starting out as an engineer, I was very interested in what management was doing. I went to every town-hall type meeting I could, every business planning meeting, every financial meeting. I really wanted to be steeped in it to understand the role.

Year after year after year I learned again and again that there's something truly toxic about middle-management and up. It's like the higher you go, the worse the air gets, and your brain starts to get clouded and fuzzy. Technical people stay in their roles for decades and get better and better over time; management plays musical chairs where they change roles every 2 or 3 years. The new role has almost nothing to do with their old role. If you saw a whole group of people randomly switch every couple years between being an Aerospace Engineer, then a Software Engineer, then an Environmental Engineer, then a Structural Engineer, you'd rightly go: wow, all these engineering jobs must be super easy! They just throw anybody into those roles. They don't take any time to learn, etc. etc. So why, when people randomly switch every couple years between product manager, director of operations, financial director, project manager, sales manager, director of internal innovation, director of digital growth, director of New-Techy-Buzzword -- why do you not conclude the same thing? All those jobs are stupid and worthless, clearly, because they come and go with the wind, and anyone in the mid-to-upper-management sphere can take on any of those roles. Clearly they require no training. Clearly they are not hard. Having an MBA degree does not qualify you to do all of those roles, unless those roles have absolutely nothing to them. Note that I intentionally excluded anything having to do with "legal" in there, because that's an actual job that takes an actual expert.

My long-winded point is that I did the exact opposite of what you claim. I used to believe that software engineering is a piece in the overall puzzle and that all these other functions are an important part. But I learned, time and time and time again, that the primary driving force in corporate America is the Principal Agent Problem and that all these roles are just titles to be shuffled around among those in the Business Caste for their own personal benefit. Entire companies are nothing more than pawns in the game these guys (and it is mostly men) are playing with each other, jockying for the most impressive-sounding titles, extracting as much money as they can from the public sector into their own pockets. If they're actually doing their job well, they're losing at the game. You have to switch jobs every couple years to keep up.

> pip doesn't even ask when reinstalling a version currently being used.

Just as an explanation: a "version" in Python packaging can come from one of many potential distributions, including a local distribution (such as a path on disk) that might different from a canonical released distribution on PyPI. Having `pip install ...` always re-install based on its candidate selection rules is generally good (IMO), since an explicit run of `pip install` implies user intent to search for a potentially new or changed distribution.
These are cool, but I feel like too many of these are just kinda coming up with a simple prompt and letting SD do it's thing. I'm looking forward to more human direction with these videos rather than just "what happens if AI zooms in a bunch?" (the Infinite__Vibes ones are getting there).
I feel it's very difficult to find communities for writing (not fiction writing, but like, "writing for web" or "content writers") without it devolving into shilling or self-promo.
Just because you have money doesn’t mean you can consistently come out with bangers. Google’s claim to fame was its search - everything else was either acquired (e.g. YouTube), a reaction to trends (e.g. Google+), or a small side thing, made moderately popular by Google branding/marketing. Same with Facebook.
Agreed. Without the pressure of 'do this or die', these wealthy men can enjoy work. Because at any time, they can simply leave.

Kinda like Mike Rowe waxing on about Dirty Jobs and work ethic. It lacks the full weight of the cost of failure.

I wonder if the term 'hyper fixation' isn't a bit misleading when it comes to ADHD. It's often marketed by sufferers as a light superpower, but rather than being able to focus it's more an inability to defocus, which is a significant difference even if the end result seems similar.
