The thing I kept thinking when reading this was, what about the hikers' agency in deciding whom they hike with?

I'm an athletic guy, and a fast hiker. I go up climbs like an escalator. If someone agrees to hike with me, there's a tacit understanding of what to expect, so if you agree to go, then don't complain when you get exactly what was advertised. I will tell you suck it up, hydrate, and eat a Clif Bar. Furthermore, I won't even agree to take you if there is reason to believe you are overestimating your fitness, and/or underestimating the trail.

Conversely, if they make it clear they want a leisurely hike, and I agree to it, then it is on me to dial down the intensity.

All that has to happen is an honest conversation about the desired intensity from the get-go, and then it's clear who's being a dick because it's whomever is going back on the agreement.

Can't we all just be mature adults about such things? I've never personally had an issue with this in almost two decades of hiking. Maybe it's because I usually avoid random group hikes with strangers?
Now its just for Tom and Harry?

Easily solved.

Add a $10/litre tax to all petroleum products that enter the country.

Give everyone $2000 a month.

People who continue current average driving habits and buy their normal products are unharmed.

People who car pool or switch to a lighter vehicle or other transport method or purchas low local transport cost products win.
To add to that, the Touhou Loseless Music Collection torrent on the cat website is currently at 3.3 TiB, and features more than 1900 different circles (bands I guess?). I think if you count someone playing a song on a guitar as a cover he's probably not the most covered artist of all time, but if you measure it on availability of hobbyist covers, he might very well be.
The idea of how they recycle drinking water is also of high concern to me personally... What if the equipment breaks or underperforms?

People constantly act as if science and technology is flawless in execution, but in reality it rarely is.

There is also space radiation and other factors that can easily affect bio organisms, without any way of knowing what happened here on earth. COmpared to the ideals of Star Trek, we are still vastly primitive in terms of understanding space... Makes me kinda sad how much safety needs to be risked just to explore the outer bounds.
My bet is on hormonal changes due to modern living and/or it's impact on the gut microbiome. I'm mid thirties with low body fat and somewhat athletic and got diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer last year with no history in the family. My support groups regularly get new people around my age.

It's scary to think that in the next few years these cancers will no longer be an old person's illness because chemo is absolutely devastating.
We do 100% vanilla web development for our B2B product now. Our roadmap went something like:

(Client Authoritative State) Angular 2.x/??? => RiotJS/Bootstrap =>

(Server Authoritative State) Blazor/Bootstrap => Custom/Vanilla

The Angular and Riot apps were a nightmare to maintain long-term. We sign contracts with our customers that are 5+ years long, so having autonomy over this sort of stuff is critical. The rate of change with these frameworks was too much to deal with, especially at our scale of <10 employees.The big solve moving to Blazor from RiotJS was keeping the state on the server and being able to reuse existing C# codebase to manage UI. This continues to be very productive for us. Server-authoritative state is the answer for keeping complex UIs on rails.

We still have quite a few interfaces on top of Blazor, but those aren't really a pain point for us (at least until Microsoft does what they usually do in a few major versions...). The biggest catalyst for moving from Blazor/Bootstrap to Vanilla was 2-fold: On one hand, the power of modern web APIs, such as CSS Grid, eliminates a large reason why you need a 3rd party layout system in the first place. On the other, we realized that dynamically updating the DOM using a 2-way web socket setup is actually not that complicated or scary, assuming you have well-scoped requirements and aren't afraid of javascript.

For hand-rolled vanilla, the way we sync the DOM is with a simple 2-way web socket protocol where the server has a dictionary of elements per active client, and hashes of state are used to detect required updates after client events are processed. No shadow DOM or any of that crap. We just blow it all out and redraw on update. None of our UIs has enough elements to justify all that extra complexity right now. We could easily iterate into several directions if we needed to over time. The key point is that we understand 100% of our stack. Every line of code makes sense to us. At no point do we have to worry about someone pulling support or shifting their framework in an adverse direction.

Finally, we also have major security concerns with vendoring out anything, since our product is used - in part - for in-branch banking. The hottest PII you can imagine flows through our web app every day. Being able to tell various CTOs that there is no supply chain risk with our web UI is a very fun hat trick for me.
What is the argument against this? Honestly asking. I do know that profit margins need to exceed cost of finding, extracting and refining the oil and US's natural gas was decimated because of saudi vs russia price wars in 2020 after covid hit because prices weren't high enough which meant shutting things down. Do subsidies artificially allow a good enough profit margine to continue operations? If so is it for crude, lng,etc...? Because if it means depending more on russia and venezuela I can see that argument being good.

Also, why not get rid of farm subsidies or industry subsidies in general? Or is the point of this bill "oil bad" ? Because that would be silly, I mean sure it is bad but reducing supply just means it will be aquired elsewhere complicating the politics of switching to renewables. In other words, if the US used only its own fossil fuels it would be easier to regulate prices and such to make renewables more appealing, and russia,saudi and china getting more business means they are less motivated to reduce fossil fuel usage. But in general I agree with subsidies being a bad thing but with oil, I would rather have it in the US where we have control over the extraction and refinement process as well as distribution and ability to wind down dependence on it in a planned manner, but that doesn't mean they should be subsidized.

I just don't know what the reasons are for keeping subsidies and I'm keeping an open mind.
I don't see much partisanship in this comment section, mostly people discussing the O&G amortization schedules. I agree that, in general, it would be better if HN had less political posts. That said, just upvote the type of posts you think are interesting and move on.

To echo your last point: If we spent half as much time upvoting as individuals instead of finger pointing, we wouldn't need HN moderator intervention at all.

I can relate to that. I got "lucky" that I had to learn React in a few weeks, and while I grumbled a lot in the beginning, I came to love it (not js packages ecosystem though, that simply sucks). Huge thanks to my coworkers at the time who took me through the speed course!

You need to look at ES6 as a completely new language, almost completely unrelated to JS. Once you learn it, React is easy - and genius in its simplicity. I can't imagine building even a medium sized webapp without some way of building UI declaratively. Maintaining a classical jQuery / native JS webapp is a nightmare, while these frameworks break up the problem into manageable pieces.

Highly recommend biting the bullet and learning one of them, it really is worth it (not necessarily React, there are lots of others too).

I suspect in many cases the energy consumer is not the building maintainer.
What about adamant? I heard that is the next level above mithril.
BASIC and (UCSD) Pascal were the mainstream choices on 8-bit micros... with BASIC being far and away the dominant language in the amateur and low-volume professional market mainly due to ease of use and that it came bundled with every 8-bit micro I recall using. On 16-bit micros that was around the time more powerful high-level languages started to become available (for example, XLISP was released in 1983. AmigaBASIC released in 1985 was quite powerful for its time). So you are correct that options were limited in '83 mainly because 8-bit micros were very, very storage (RAM and disk) constrained.

It was commercial, student and hard core amateur, developers who developed in assembly in the 80's. C was only ever 'high level' when compared to assembly/machine code. Manual memory management was an indicator that it wasn't high level at all. That said, much commercial software was still written in assembly back then as that was the only way to wring the performance out of an 8-bit and even early 16-bit micros. It was the transition to 16-bit, when all that 6502/6800 code became obsolete when C really started to take over.
> Every time I worked with them, they helped me build a better product by helping me tweak the specs in a way that had minimal impact on our users (unless they were a bad actor) and strongly increased privacy protections. It was like having a specialized PM in the room

It sounds like they were focused on building product too, then, which is not at all what this is about.
Eh, there's only so much of that to be had. At some point, it becomes formulaic.
I've seen your website making rounds around HN before, and I don't think there is anything wrong with you posting your articles here.

> So you’re basically saying that ESG can be applied to individuals as long as you redefine it to something completely else.

There are 802 million Google results for "personal governance". I'm not redefining anything.

When the investment (or not) comes through trillion dollar asset managers by way of the Fed, it looks a lot more coercive.
Speeding up incremental Rust compilation with dylibs
The top complex component in Word is the text editor while the tricky component in Maps is the map. Neither of those can be made with the frameworks we're dealing with here, so that is a go. We can make the traditional UI with a simple view library like lit-html [1] and we'll want to keep some state around, but most state managers can be rigged to Vanilla. I'd totally prefer Web Components to any popular framework for the particular apps you suggest.

That is the point of the comment. No matter how bad it gets, biological creatures will adapt as they always have while lots of existing species will become extinct; none of this is new. The question is can people adapt and remain what we think of as people in what we think of as our civilization. Given the current horrific weather (droughts/floods/heat/cold/storms/fires etc) how will humanity adapt without seriously changing what we think of as life. Perhaps we can live underground, or all move to the poles, or try a new planet somewhere. But if weather continues to get worse and worse eventually fewer and fewer people will survive, and we might become like the majority of species that no longer exist.
Proper perfect brand new construction compared to 1950s worn out building might be 50% increase but that requires building a new building.

I had been doing that much more early on along with replacing some of the plug-ins & dlls. After a point the reality dawned that I was replacing so much that I was on the road to making my own player. Also how things have gone with the owners I just don't want to be doing anything that uses their offerings

There's still some live patching / splicing needed for some of the plug-ins that are still re-used from 5.666 as part of the current beta builds along with WACUP having the ability to run minus EQ & modern skin without the winamp core exe. As there's a few things from that exe which the modern skin plug-in requires to work which I've yet to work out all of the interfaces to allow the plug-in to work. It's part of what's been holding up a new preview build as I just need to be as free from having to leverage bits from Winamp as possible.

They would have huge losses in the years that they invested in things, and huge profits in the years the investments paid off. This might result in more or less tax revenue depending on exactly how the rest of the tax code is structured (or restructured).

The article links to a Nature paper. Are you reading a different paper?

https://www.nature.com/articles/s42003-022-03777-z.pdf

This is the closest thing I can find to a reference to a control in the first two paragraphs. The figures also suggest they did not have a control, so the use of the phrase “elevated rates” is baseless:

> Considering baseline genetic and extrinsic variability, the development of tools that permit the assessment of individual genetic susceptibility would improve risk stratification and long-term clinical management.

If funded, that still wouldn’t be a reasonable control.

Maybe I’m missing a key sentence or something, but I’ve read the paper, and it seems to boil down to:

“Mutations are bad, and this expensive piece of equipment measures mutations, so we stuck expensive astronaut blood in it, and the gauge pointed to a non-zero number”.

Not only is Rich Harris is a fast talker, he expresses more strong opinions per minute than most, except perhaps Richard Feldman about Elm. I like Harris' passion. He believes his way is the best. More power to him, but I'm not going to argue with you after coming across this quote recently:

Too much gaslighting from a parent as a child turns you into an argumentative person desperate to prove your version of event's because you're used to being dismissed in an unfair power structure (tinybuddha.com)

I will say I've been building Web Components lately and think they are elegant and beautiful and solve some problems in a neat way, but of course don't solve all problems.

Also this: Angular elements are Angular components packaged as custom elements (also called Web Components), a web standard for defining new HTML elements in a framework-agnostic way. https://angular.io/guide/elements
It would be nice to have this information to see if any trends are discovered (all of this is theoretical, I question whether measuring excreted compounds rather than stores is is relevant but that’s a separate point) however it is unclear what value this information will provide and seems unlikely it will generate anything actionable.

With that in mind, it’s hard to justify the colossal costs that would be involved in administering such a program. Young (< 50) healthy adults shouldn’t even really be getting annual checkups (in my professional opinion and per several guidelines) and annual blood work is definitely not indicated.

Annual urinalysis is not indicated as part of the general work up for patients of any age, so this would be adding a whole extra step in specimen collection and not just adding on a test.

Healthcare is generally a zero sum game and if we divert $ and lab resources to something like this that means other tests and procedures are not being done.

A small prospective study as the authors suggest would be interesting, yet still expensive. It’s a huge stretch to say everyone should be getting this and ignores the harm that this would cause.
The majority of the software industry is just lucky benefactors who “got there first”.

Google isn’t a sustainable business without paying enormous sums to remain in business, without a whole lot of political concessions that have been made to hype USian markets.

I will play the devil’s advocate and argue the other side of this opinion.

First off, I too dislike open workspaces. But the reason I dislike them has more to do with my personality than anything else.

Mr. Brooks states that years of research shows that open workspaces are bad for people. I did a little searching on Google Scholar and I found a variety of studies. Some concluded less satisfaction and interaction, others concluded just the opposite. So, there does not seem to be a consensus on whether people like them or hate them or whether. This makes sense to me: people have different likes and dislikes.

I frequently visit coffee shops in my semi-retirement, and I always note about half of the customers are usually working on their laptops. This “third place” for work is an informal “open workspace”. Some people need a public setting to get some work done, even when there is noise and distraction. I would guess that coffee shops owe a lot of their daytime business to these kinds of people. Again, this would not be my preference, but to each their own.

The wfh trend could be a testament to people’s dislike of open workspaces, but I doubt it. I think it has much more to do with being “out of sight” (eg pajamas) and less commuting time than anything else. If there were neighborhood open workspaces with comfortable surroundings along with free food and beverages, I suspect more than half of wfh proponents would be perfectly happy spending some time in these locations to see friends, visit with clients, work on collaborative projects, etc. Working in the home all of the time isn’t that great, either.

So in conclusion, I disagree that open workspaces are uniformly awful. I think Mr. Brooks is being a little dramatic in his opinion piece and that there isn’t substantial data to back up his claims.
Unleaded non-oxy has existed forever and way predates ethanol.
This line in particular looks like a good move:

> "Expands the definition of crude oil for purposes of the excise tax on petroleum and petroleum products to include any oil derived from a bitumen or bituminous mixture (tar sands), and any oil derived from kerogen-bearing sources (oil shale)."

Seems like the industry got its lobbyists to write in a loophole, and that loophole should be eliminated.
wait do you have more info on that or a link? never heard of it
both firefox and chrome do for me, trying https first even when i type http://. particularly if https was ever used for a domain in past which drives me nuts for local network domains. the only way i make them stop is to clear history
Thinking of tax benefits as subsidies is the point of view that all money you earn belongs to the government and they decide how much you get to keep.

Taxes are mandatory payments for (allegedly) services the government provides.

Tax breaks let people/companies keep more of their own money. They are not subsidies. Subsidies would be additional money provided (which could be the case in a refundable tax credit where you end up getting a refund on taxes you never paid).
If you have high "ordinary income" from salary, RSUs, NSOs, etc, you can essentially convert that ordinary income to dividends and long term capital gains using these oil & gas tax subsidies.

Let's say you invest $100k into a drilling fund. You can deduct intangible drilling costs in year 1, which is usually about 95% of your investment. So you save ($maginal_tax_rate * 95k) in year 1, and get a dividend (with extra tax break) of 10-20% per year for about 7-10 years.

When the oil slows down after 7-10 years, the fund sells the asset for 20-30% of your investment, and I believe you can realize that loss.
You’d also have to adjust for industrial transport and agriculture. Otherwise, food prices will go up. (But yes, I broadly agree. I’ve advocated for something similar for water.)
Do you really need to remove, or would it suffice to withdraw it?

> A subsidy is just a benefit given by a government for public interest reason

Amortization is a bookkeeping concept that most industries get to control. The government would be forcing companies here to change how they do their bookkeeping to (theoretically) extract more tax from them specifically.

In this case, the government is not currently giving them a benefit, it's taking away a right most other industries have.

Otherwise, I would have to believe that any tax rate under 100% is a subsidy.

Well that was rather during the 90s, no? Like a decade before HTML5.
