Years ago I was working at a multinational consultancy, and then they suddenly decided to block most of the internet except for a whitelist. We quickly figured out that the whitelist worked with keywords, and since we were programming in java, java was one of the keywords, so if a url was banned, we could access it by adding ?param=java. As twenty something year old developers, we said, challenge accepted, and we built a GreaseMonkey or TamperMonkey script that when it couldn't load a page it would reload with the param added, and rewrite all the links and img tags to also add the param. Soon after that the system admin guys gave us a proxy config to bypass the whole ban, but it was fun to do it anyway.
Ironically, the worst website I have to regularly navigate is my ISP's.
MRI is better, you don't want to get irradiated before every game.
Diplomacy often comes across as friendliness. I've been in situations where I've not acquiesced and seen how quickly things can change. As they say, don't take friendliness for weakness. Wonderfully managed by all parties though.
Because they usually have to use a different more expensive chipset and a lot of stuff uses PCIE these days that didnt before, for example NVME SSDs now take PCIE slots that were free to be used for different stuff before. And in the desktop market, most people just dont need more than a pcie slot for their boot drive and their GPU. Add to that that PCIE 4 and 5 are more expensive and require more expensive boards.
Show HN: An Reccurent Event tracker including for software lifecycle
It's a project I'm working for some time, the starting idea was simple: I wanted to get simple notifications when reccurent events happen for example: I go to a site and I want to know when Windows (could be anything else) is launched, see the event in a calandar and get notified only for that every couple of years and nothing else.

Of course as I started to work on it ideas started creeping in so by now it's far more than that.

In the title I mentioned software lifecycle, you can already see this on https://endoflife.date/ but I also wanted to model this in a way that allows you to see them in a calendar besides other events.

If you want to see what is tracked for software you can search for 'software' topic: https://www.beepwhen.com/event-series/topics

Some feedback would be appreciated:

1. Is it is clear from the landing page what the app does?
2. If you think it's useful for you, if not why not , If it's useful, what stops you from using it

I'm happy to answer any questions

Thanks!
As a kid it felt so weird to me that SLR lenses could be so massive that you mount the camera to it rather than the other way around. This feels like that.
And when I was in first grade my teacher got married, showed us pictures of the wedding, and changed her last name.
The well to wheel efficiency is still better for EVs, even if they are powered by coal , significantly better if powered by gas, and much , much better when powered by renewables.

So EVs are better in all circumstances, and enable continuous improvements by using more renewables.

The existence of more EVs also creates the incentive to build out renewables.

These big shifts never happen in isolation, they need to happen in lockstep.
Thanks for mentioning AppSmith. Trying it out may be an impulse to finally tackle that internal tool that I have been procrastinating about for a while.
The most convincing case against I've seen against Niemann is that he appears to play absurdly much better (200 Elo!) in games that are broadcast, and where cheating with an accomplice would thus be easy [0]. The tournament being broadcast explains the majority of the variation in his performance during the time period. That's standard statistics, with easy to understand methodology. While after reading your article, I just don't understand Regan's methodology, his presentation of results, nor his evasive answer to the question of broadcast games.

Now, of course Regan is an expert on the topic. But he is also making a far worse case than the "zealous amateurs" as the article calls it. It really is coming across just as an argument from authority. (Maybe the full 90 minute interview is better, and it's just the article that's shit.)

> NATO members ARE helping Ukraine. They are behaving a lot like they would if Ukraine was an OFFICIAL member of NATO.

They are behaving like Ukraine is a country that is friendly towards NATO but not a member.

> They only reason they dont send troops is because Russia is a NUCLEAR power. Simple as that.

You know that the entire reason for NATO was to stave of the USSR and now Russia right?, saying 'NATO won't intervene with a nuclear power' is useless when your alliance was literally formed to fight a nuclear power.

NATO isn't intervening because Ukraine isn't a member, is that simple.

> I'm not arguing whether the Invasion was good or bad or moral or immoral or justified or unjustified. I'm arguing that, over what the US has been doing in Ukraine for years was bound to provoke a Russian invasion.

no one did anything 'provoke' an invasion, that just removes all agency from Russia itself, and Ukraine. Russia is the sole entity that decided to invade, no one else made that decision for them.

Russia is the one solely to blame for all the war crimes that are being committed in Ukraine right.

> International Relations is ruled by power not morals.

Then clearly Russia is going to be knocked down a beg in international relations, because its quite clear that Russias army cannot even get to a city less then 300km from there border in 6 months, and not even against, but against a country using second rate NATO gear.

The 30-Year Mortgage Is an Intrinsically Toxic Product – By Byrne Hobart
I think it's fair to say most of us had our grades suffer. My GCSEs back in 06 were terrible, but no wonder, I spent most of my time hacking & writing code. I'm no worse off for it, and I'm sure you won't be either!
Launch of Proton Drive, the encrypted cloud storage for everyone
This seems like a definition that isn’t really needed?
The law covers every age group. Do you think that the proponents of the law think that a book with trans protagonists is “developmentally appropriate” for 8th graders?
It may never have been easier to share knowledge but it also hasn't ever been easier to share misinformation.

It also hasn't gotten easier to find information. Search results are worse now than 10 years ago because of Search Engine "Optimization". Google search needs uBlocklist[1] with a steadily growing list of manually curated domains just to poorly approximate usability.

Additionally, sites load slower every day. Why does every partial refresh of a site require 2 seconds, even though I'm on a decent computer? On phones sites are practically unusable.

The benefits you're touting for the web could be accomplished with Web 1.0 level of tech or even simpler protocols such as Gopher[2] or Gemini[3]. Everything else is an overall decrease in accessibility, usability, user experience, and the ease of finding or sharing knowledge.

I am on my second reading and still only understand half of it. So that makes me half scared and angry.
It is probably more productive to talk about why certain technologies have and have not been adopted than to "take sides" in an artificial debate that, for some reason, pits nuclear against wind and solar.

The first small modular civilian reactor in the United States in 2022. However, the United States has been producing small modular reactors for military use since the late 1950s.

Ignore dogma and consider cases why nuclear power might be beneficial even if the dollar cost for wind and solar is globally lower:
- The power output variance for nuclear is not very correlated with solar, wind, and hydro. Given the issues related to supply and demand variance, adding power sources whose variance isn't correlated with other power sources stabilizes supply and reduces risks of blackouts.
- Solar, wind, and hydro are very geographically-dependent sources. To a small degree, so is nuclear— it requires cooling— but it can be built in places that aren't great choices for wind and solar. This means it's very useful for some local markets.
- Nuclear has a different set of mineral requirements from batteries. In many ways, they are more complicated (e.g., enriching Uranium for light water reactors), but they are nonetheless different. Using nuclear alongside batteries reduces risk from mineral supply chains being broken.

Most of these effects run in both directions. Relying entirely on one source of energy is more risky than utilizing an ensemble of sources.
To Get People Back in the Office, Make It Social
Look carefully at it; probably you won't be able to use the fastest trains with the JR pass.

Also, if you're just going to Kyoto from Tokyo, it really is not worth it to get the pass. Just buy regular tickets. The pass is useful if you're doing a lot of train travel in a short time.
The Potential Dangers of Mindfulness (2021)
It would be very interesting to have that studied... but my general impressions (as somebody who does read the publications) is that the answer is usually no.
No, but banning them from the cell network is.
So the one thing they aren't changing is the marginal 40% tax on earnings above £50k?
