Not as amazing as PV. From milliwatts (microwatts even, if you wannt) to Terawatts. And only stopping at Terawatts because we'd get bored going bigger.
Where are you based ?
Writing a review to warn others is like "i scratch your back, you'll scratch mine". There is no imminent benefit for you instantly when leaving negative review, but you benefit when others warn you later.
It's interesting how you're assuming that a species which obviously has been navigating way past the point where any useful power can be extracted from their star would not see the utility of developing fusion power
> I'm yet another European who only ever gets SMS from my elderly mother, for 2FA (usually only when dealing with American companies), parcel deliveries, and so on.

I'm yet another European and even though apps like WhatsApp and Signal are very popular, SMS is still used very often.

Apps like WhatsApp do have an advantage like better UX, group chat, better allowlists, online presence status indicators, multimedia support, and multi-platform support.
Hard to authorize payment with Face ID when your face has been eaten by a bear.
I think another good book to add to this list would be one that, coincidentally, Matt Taibi wrote an article about today. "The Lords of Easy Money" by (NYT best seller) Christopher Leonard gives some added perspective to this book list recommended by The Economist. It is certainly illuminating to read Ben Bernanke in his own words, but it is far from optimal to base your understanding of the FED on his own self-serving tome.

There is information in the fact a signal was sent and received from the observer of the receiver.
Yep.

I don't understand why at least new technologies don't imitate it. Seems so logical.
Most states in the US publish stats on charities operating in their borders. My state has a yearly shame list they publish. One thing I learned from looking at it is that most charities that take in less than $1 mil a year basically are not real charities and keep 99% of the money for 'overhead'
Specially for those cases that ship a browser alongside the application....
Sometimes, it is explained somewhere and it doesn't matter, no one is listening.

This topic is not one I'm personally familiar with, so possibly making an ass of myself, but (shrug).
In all the airports i was there were big screens telling you about arrivals and departures and where can you pick up your luggage.
Isn’t this absurdly wasteful?
when I was young, kids in my neighbourhood used those 1 pound laser pointers to shut off the street's lights for fun.
That issue isn’t only with Airbnb. Many other tech companies have poor customer service and more than willing to just ban you rather than deal with issues.
Had incident with Uber. Driver came 30 mins late, she accepted ride, forgot to turn off her location and went to coffee shop.
When she arrived, I didn’t say anything. She was rude entire ride complaining about other customers, traffic. I remained quiet.
She quickly found out, pretty easy to hear from my accent, that I’m an immigrant. She started to complain about immigrants, immigration system and other nonsense like they took our jobs and how the one, back than candidate, would fix it all.

I left her one star review and very small tip.

Next day I got message that my account suspended. It took me entire day but eventually I found out that she wrote complaint to company that my wife and I physically assaulted her during ride. And based on her word alone it was enough to permanently ban me
I am also very interested in data to support your claim. I offered my anecdotical experience and you're saying (quite aggressively) that that is objectively not true.
Can you please provide a comparison between the # of messages sent as SMS and messages sent through Whatsapp and other services?
.NET core is cross-platform, open source, and comes with a `dotnet` CLI that allows you to do basically everything.
If that's really the word you want then you're simply wrong. It can be and is being used as evidence that Hans may have cheated, just like his history of online cheating is being used, but nobody serious who's commented (Hikaru, Eric Hansen etc.) thinks the evidence is conclusive. It's evidence, but it's not proof.

Is there a chance to go to the court with such issue?
You can always try do do the Kant thing for questions like these: Would it be good for you if everybody followed your advice? Compared to the chances of getting fucked for writing a bad review, aren't the chances bigger to get fucked by a bad actor in a world where nobody left bad reviews?

It is simple. If the answer to the question: "How would it be if everybody acted like me?" is "It would be worse", this means you are acting in a way that makes society worse for your own advantage.
> For example, if the tour de france allowed recumbent bikes the course would need to change massively to support anywhere near that speed safely.

Not just for speed, but recumbents are terrible at cornering and are terrible for going uphill. Half the fun in large cycling races are the mountain stages where people go slowly uphill and then really fast and technical on downhills with many corners taken at high speeds. Recumbents would be terrible for that.

> Or Messenger. Strangely, Messenger is more popular than WhatsApp in Europe. Got the context though

I lived in Europe all my life and never heard of Messenger.

WhatsApp is pervasive. We get the WhatsApp logo shoved in our faces even while casually watching tv. Even TV programs and state institutions have WhatsApp contacts.
> Apple allows you to ship custom EULA language that supersedes the part of the App Store EULA that would ordinarily conflict with GPLv2

Is there any write-up on that that explains how exactly they did that?

> For example, this is what iSH uses to legally ship an entire x86 Linux userland inside of an app.

An entire userland?! AFIR it only shipped the gnu toolkit, the rest is downloaded from the repositories?
ITT:

A bunch of insecure clowns that somehow manage to feel personally threatened by a productivity tool. It's hilarious. Get over yourselves.

Copilot is just an intelligent, context-aware search engine that is plugged directly into your code editing workflow. It's nothing more. It's the sci-fi version of having a hardcoded `site:stackoverflow.com` google search box right next to your editor.

It's easily the nicest thing I've installed for productivity in a while, and it regularly amazes me what it can pick up from context. I can switch between code written in two different languages that is related, and copilot will often pick up enough context to give me correct suggestions in one language based on the code I just wrote in the other.

Almost every hotel I've ever stayed in has a desk, a sofa, and free reign over the thermostat. Are you in the US?

Granted, most don't have a kitchen outside of extended stays. But I'll take a bar, restaurant, freshening up, towels, bed changing, vacuuming, breakfast, restocking, etc all for free in exchange for losing the ability to cook, personally.

I've only stayed at an AirBnB once, staying with a friend. For the life of me, I couldn't and still can't understand why someone would prefer it over a similarly priced hotel.
Well, ofc - there is vim as well
When the trip was over, we decided not to leave a review after giving her the benefit of the doubt that it was just a bad day. The property itself was great. A few weeks later, I saw that the host left me a critical review with completely distorted details from what had actually happened

Wait. What? The host is putting reviews of guests online for all the world to see? Not in response to a review? To what purpose? And by name "Jackson and his girlfriend..." That's going to cut into the weekend getaway with the woman you are cheating with traffic.

As a corollary to the site permissions making it effectively an app, I like web sites in a regular browser because it enforces more limitations than what an app may try to get away with.
Fun ways to break your Clojure Macros
Strangely enough, people have thought of it. Just not you.
Quite. This is how systems break down, and is realistically a bit selfish.

Further, the more everyone does honestly review, the more outrage occurs if that process is interfered with. The less acceptable it becomes to maliciously go after an honest review.

I can see why they guard the form of the bikes used.

Competitive team road cycling is, amongst other things, about the tactics of multiple riders using shared aerodynamic advantage.

If you make everyone more aero by say using recumbent bikes you diminish the advantage of teamwork.

You’d lose all the inter-team horse trading that goes on between rivals in breakaways or mountain stages. No more tight sprint train finishes.

There’d be no surprise attacks because there’d be no way to conserve energy hiding behind a rival waiting for the right moment.

Everything would be full gas all the time and could mostly be settled by looking at pure power numbers.

You’d still get a race but every stage would be a simple time trial. Effectively road racing would become a very different discipline.

Like giving all the riders ebikes. It’s still a form of racing but you lose a big part of what makes a team stage racing compelling.

I’ve always wondered though why they couldn’t allow open vehicle stages for some time trials where the riders are on their own anyway. I think that would preserve team cycling and still be fun.
I had the same problem when using Aldi Talk, switched to Telekom and it's much better, but I am at the edge of the coverage area. I've seen it on the phones of the people that were visting me that Vodafone works much better in the house, but I don't want to work with them
They're powerless, but quite unsavory - no one really wants to have an authoritarian cult on their territory, even if they can't stomach letting Iran execute them as seems likely.

Hence giving them asylum is considered a relatively cheap way for a NATO member state like Albania with limited military and economic resources to pull its weight.
On airbnb, both parties review each other after a stay ends. I think this was more useful back in the days of letting out a spare room to a stranger instead of the professional setups we see more today.
Or maybe your position is it already exists and is called Publisher’s Marketplace? I ran a quick check and it looks like there are around two orders of magnitude difference in traffic between HN and PM. I don’t think it could support/be supported by a community.
I believe what the gp is really saying is that by the time they get to pick up the iPhone 14 Pro (whether in store or when their pre-order gets delivered), they'll be too close to the date of their departure.

In other words, they would not have had any meaningful time getting accustomed to iOS from Android, which is why they used the strategy of getting an iPhone 13 spend 2 weeks or more with it, in the hopes that if they like the experience, they'd return it for the newer iPhone 14 Pro.
I've been banned from both Uber and AirBnB for reporting security vulnerabilities before they had a bug bounty program.

Merkle Hash Trees are not a solution for offline checks. You can very easily check membership in a tree if someone sends you a proof of membership. But to get a proof, you'd either have to generate it yourself (meaning you're storing the whole set anyway) or get it from a third party (ie an online lookup, which is what OCSP is). The forefront of CRL design is in set compression techniques like Ribbon filters https://arxiv.org/pdf/2103.02515.pdf

Don't generalise all of Europe without checking the statistics.

Messenger is the most popular chat app in France, Scandinavia and most of Eastern Europe. WhatsApp has the rest. Except Viber in Serbia and Belarus.

(Messenger is Facebook Messenger, everyone who has a Facebook account has it, though not necessarily in use on their phone.)
> Well, the usability can be really great.

Could. Teams tries to be smarter and paints the window with 1px margin which makes resizing impossible.

If web developers really want to improve usability: You have an app with 1 text field ? Make this field accept keyboard focus by default. Why do i always have to click in a text input field before i type ( yes Teams also does this)
Apple Watch ECG is a good example: it required actively applying for regulatory approval, and they ended up accomplishing that on non-US/EU territories.

Whereas Google just sticks to the same 10-or-so countries for rollout.

Maybe Google Pixel?

Would Go's concurrency be an issue for SQLite too?

Edit: I looked into a common Go driver for SQLite[1] and the FAQ reads,

> Can I use this in multiple routines concurrently?

> Yes for readonly. But not for writable. See #50, #51, #209, #274.

Every time I see a blog post from fly.io reg SQLite I'm tempted to use it for my next project, But the need to rewrite my framework for limited data types and the doubts regarding concurrency keeps me away.

Resistance to sunburn increases exponentially with regular exposure, and without it falls back to your genetic base level. That's not hyperbole, UV treatment in medical facilities have to start with seconds of treatment which is increased by a percentage each time until you get to effective levels.

That's not to recommend that you try doing that yourself, just a weird fact I learned. its hard to calibrate sun exposure. But theoretically starting from very sensitive skin isn't a barrier.
Well the article didn't say anything about utilities.

I would like a threshold for companies to have a better and appealable banning process that is much smaller than that. Let's say 10 million active users as a rough example.
Who said it was a thing for employers? You only prove my point.
> industry standard

You mean a feature of their only competitor?

If the other company doing something makes it an industry standard I guess the way Apple does things is an industry standard too

Remind me then please since when our conversations on HN are so strict? ;-)
This question comes up commonly on reddit —- yes iMessage is very popular here. In my experience - Facebook Messenger, Snapchat, Discord are the top messaging services.

Whatsapp is not uncommon to be sure, but I would wager a significant portion of users in the United States have it installed because they chat with people overseas.

Signal & Telegram are pretty small userbases.
I just realized I could not write my comment here due to fear of my account being closed or being sued. Welcome to the digital soviet union. You can literally not post your opinion anymore freely.
YouTube ads directly try to game the users attention. This is distinct from regular advertising (billboards et al) because your engagement directly and quickly affects what ads are served to you.

People who have particular sensitivity to attention changes ('attention deficit' might be a term for it, but there are other ways it can manifest) are going to be affected disproportionately by this, even if they don't disproportionately make up the revenue of the platform.

Because of the increased sensitivity, the disruption also has the potential to affect the neurodivergent user more destructively than the neurotypical one.

You can make the case that 'if you can't handle YouTube ads, don't go on YouTube', but then that runs counter to a lot of YouTube's content marketing and brand image. So if you take that stance, you then have to necessarily question the motives behind their other choices.
Actually, why isn't the service provider reviewing the customers be more common? Shouldn't it really be in all of these platform economies. They are independent contractors. Surely they should be able to review the customers and thus allow others to choose if they want to serve them?
I'm not sure what you mean - unlike npm, pip installs only one copy of a dependency in each environment.
I think the broken link refers to the same information found here [0].

One of the nicest AND most frustrating parts of taint-mode, for myself, is that once activated it remains on until the end of execution. It's not scoped, which removes some of the headache of using such a thing. Switch on, and assume always on.

Those full bars of coverage you had at altitude are probably going to disappear the moment you lose line-of-sight.

That said, aircraft have ELTs which are supposed to trigger on impact and can be manually activated as well, so an InReach probably wouldn't make a life-or-death difference very often.
I get your point but it sounds like the location in question is a real business.

> All are against the Western-led anti-Russia war.

Do they support Russia's invasion of Ukraine?

What did Russia think Europe and the US were going to do? Russia seems to have gambled on the idea that Europe and the US would let the invasion happen unimpeded. It turns out Russia was wrong about that.

Russia also seems to have been wrong about the effectiveness of their own forces and the resistance they would face from Ukrainians.

Isn't the simple solution here for Russia withdraw from Ukraine, pay reparations, help with the extradition of those soldiers who have committed war crimes, and work on restoring international relations?
I think it should vary by market share. Maybe something like 10% would be reasonable limit. Or maybe top 5 if very fractured market.
It actually takes a fairly high bar for me to leave a negative review of a product or service. But some sellers/providers are just so awful to their customers, you're dang right I enjoy helping other people avoid suffering from a business deal that is certain to be terrible.

I rented an airbnb room where the host had forgot to update the pictures since there was now a wood workshop in the room behind a curtain. He was a nice guy, but it turned out to be a negative experience for my girlfriend. I mostly blame myself for not picking a more expensive place, but I still felt like other guests should know that they’re sharing the place with model ships and fishing equipment that aren’t in the pictures. Didn’t try to make enemies; gave five stars with a redeeming comment phrased positively. But clearly a flag for anyone who cares.
It is very interesting on the single dimension of shipping rates as well as the obvious implications for the supply chain, consumer demand, and what it means to the #1 economic number at the moment inflation.

> Rates were insane due to Covid

No they were insane due to the post covid boom, which also resulted in 9% inflation & write down the biggest number you can think of and we will pay it tech salaries.

AirBnb seem to have a different policy now: they simply delete the bad reviews. In June I had my first bad experience. The owner was nice but the property was absolutely awful (yet it was a "superhost" with glowing reviews).

I left a bad review (my first). Two days later I received a convoluted message from support, telling me that my review was incorrect and wouldn't be published, because it pointed out "things the property owner couldn't change".

This is sinister, but funny at the same time. If the property is dirty it can be cleaned. But if, for example, it has walls so thin you can hear the neighbors breathing, or the slope of the bathroom is in the wrong direction and water flows into the bedroom every time one takes a shower, you can't say that in a review! Because it "can't be changed".

I learned from that experience that AirBnb reviews can't be trusted, and "superhost" doesn't mean anything (except the power to kill bad reviews).

I haven't been to an AirBnb since; the best properties are very often on Booking.com as well, and those which aren't, are questionable.

> Also Bitwarden, why that instead of 1password or Lastpass or anything else?

Disclaimer: Not Op. Entirely my personal experience, not affiliated with any of these.

Being a long-time user of Lastpass, their browser-extension is resource heavy and the clients are immensely clunky. 1Password has neat UI but suffers clunkiness of Lastpass.

Bitwarden is light-weight(client, extension, mobile app), does everything well, has most of the features of other two and very cheap($10/year). Their UI is not the prettiest, but UX is superb.
