Its the other way around. countries relying on gas for electricity like Italy are the source of EU problem right now.
Which is progress, as long as the new problem is smaller than the old one.
Yes, you are right. Only the existence of the problem is "backed up with data". The proposed solution is just an idea so far. I hope our implementation brings new insights.
It's also really creepy how anarcho capitalist always end up arguing for child prostitution or close to that, if given enough time to rant.
Yea, I'm thinking that there might be a lot of administrative work that could be eliminated by a centralized electronic system for single payer care, but the way I see this going right now is the government adding another layer of administration on top of the current system to operate it (literally privatising it), and then adding a centralized directory of service charges and moving towards eliminating the parts of the system that are unnecessary under this scheme while also working with the same companies as currently exist to merge all EHRs into one common system. I expect most of the cruft of the current system to remain for several decades or more, plus more government cruft, but the upside is that we can eliminate the profit as a goal and probably balance half or more of the government cruft with eliminating inefficiencies. If they privatized pharma and the EHR software companies, too, then that would probably immediately lower prices due to the insane profit motives for investors in those areas, but that would never happen.

I think we might save some money right away, but more likely we'll lose a bit, gain the ability for our citizens to not have to worry as much about their jobs being their literal lifeline, and over time we'll save more and more versus the current system due to an increased quality of living due to better health outcomes and longer lives.
Copyright wasn't the cause of the dropping price of books, copyright was a RESPONSE to the dropping price of books. I don't buy the causality you're drawing here at all.

I can appreciate copyright had some benefits but dropping the price of books is one I am hyper-sceptical about.
I don't think you realize how hard it was to get this right. Between covid, reopenings, and the war in Ukraine, there were massive supply and demand shifts in the last 3 years.
> At least the more efficient a biological weapon is the less it hurts.

Maybe in some ideal scifi world.

In this one “biological weapons” are just disesases modified and packaged for warfighting. Their efficiency is measured in how little of the substance you need to kill or disable someone, and also in how reliably it kills/disables.

A headshot kills you instantly. From biolgocial weapons the ones which kill you (because do note, that is not always the aim) will torture you for hours but more likely for days before you succumb. Even longer if you get medical help. That is of course if you are lucky enough and the attack hasn’t overwhelmed the medical system where you are. Which of course they are designed to do.

Biological weapons can unleash hell on earth. They are difficult to aim with and they do not discriminate between combatants and non-combatants.

Where did you get the notion that they “hurt less”?

Fun little story goes here, I used pseudonym when I first registered my Facebook account ~10 years ago or so. I later tried to change the handle to my real name, but Facebook didn't let me do that - moderators though my last name isn't real. So I ended up using a couple of names because of that.

Plus, I bet your googling doesn't work quite right, until you translate these names correctly.

I'm happy you found one, but there are 2 more to go. I'll give you a hint though:

* The one you're looking for is about computer security (that's why pseudonym worked fine)

* The book cover was done by the same artist

I almost revealed my second identity, but if you ever find the second name, please don't post it here.
Let me explicitly state this, then. I do not care at all if a new movie is never made or a new book is never published. We have multiple lifetimes of quality music already, why do we need to incentivize creations relevant to the modern culture?
That's how anti-choice people want to frame the argument, but that's not the only "applied consistently" frame available, and frankly it's not one that I'm interested in. The decision is to carry a child to term, or to not carry a child to term - the "murder" (as some see it) is a consequence of the decision, not the decision itself. Nobody is choosing to have an abortion in order to kill.

So, applying that consistently, if you believe that fetuses are people, the question would be - are you ok with people being able to make legal ("state-sanctioned") choices that result in the death of other people? And of course we all are ok with that to some degree - driving is legal (40k/year dead in the USA), as is gun ownership (30k/year), as is deregulating the EPA (unknowable but large numbers of cancer deaths), and climate inaction (unknowable and growing numbers of climate related deaths).
The same way many empires fell to obsoletion were their inability or lack of foresight to adapt from Blockbuster to Borders to Toys R Us. Music streaming and Cable TV too.

Authors should shift to paid newsletters and drip content over time. Imagine a book with 250 pages would keep your subscription going for a year or two while you work on the next. And once you're about ready to launch the next book, you can compile the "old" content to physical book for a flash sale. Ofc lack of distribution channel and exposure might hurt sales. OTOH, you'd likely see more profit than publishing it whole unless there's a marketing / branding / political advantage.
The electric dumpster sounds like a great idea.

Your point about there being only one company that can fulfill the contract is a good one. My suggestion was to vote for what fraction of city contracts should be assigned to which commercial providers. I haven't worked out exact details of how this voting would work -- maybe voters could upvote/downvote service providers reddit style, and their contract percentages could be adjusted accordingly. But the overall thought was that if company A is currently providing 100% of Centerville waste services, and company B from Borderville is looking to expand into Centerville, they try to convince voters to assign 5% of Centerville waste disposal contracts to company B.

Monopolies arise because it is an individual's best interest to buy whichever option is cheapest. But it is in our collective best interest to have healthy competition. By having voters vote on what % of contracts should go to which provider, they end up choosing in our collective best interest, and keeping providers on their toes by maintaining a bit of diversity.

It's a bit of a wacky idea, I just had it this morning actually. My larger point is there is a disappointing lack of willingness to discuss and run small scale experiments on wacky ideas that could totally work :-D For example, the scheme I described incentivizes companies to tattle on each other for bad behavior like harming the environment! Isn't that interesting? It also goes a long way to address the classic problem of charter schools trying to goose their test scores by kicking out low-performing students.
> Why shouldn't I? Is it somehow my responsibility to keep the food on your table?

What a crappy comment. Sad that there are people whose only apparent ability is to hurt, destroy, and consume.
Can you tell me a bit more about your use case? A few things that come to mind:

- There are some ML/transformer-based methods for extracting a known schema (e.g. NER) or an unknown schema (e.g. relation extraction).
- We're going to add a feature to DocQuery called "templates" soon for some popular document types (e.g. invoices) + a document classifier which will automatically apply the template based on the doc type.
- Our commercial product (http://impira.com/) supports all of this + is a hosted solution (many of our customers use us to automate accounts payable, process insurance documents, etc.)

> you just have expectations that aren't compatible with reality

Guessing certain types of readers are more likely to pirate than others. The reality you're describing is one in which pirating readers have fewer books written for them. As someone who doesn't pirate books, I'm reluctantly fine with that. My authors will get compensated and write. Others' authors will find something else to do; they can make podcasts or whatever.
That would indeed be damning if true! I suppose we’ll see if and when those are made public.
Think about it this way. They didn't have temperature sensors and wind gauges setup every 20 ft along the path to the target.

Someone said, "How can I do this." It's not that much different than saying "I'll jog around the block." Couple weeks later "I'll jog around the block in half the time when I started." Weeks later "I'll jog around the neighborhood."

It is a hobby. It is complex. Someone made it happen.

Great example. Key quotes:

> your sole remedy will be that VMware shall, at its option,

> make a U.S. Person on U.S. soil available to provide technical support (in the case of non-conformity to the aforementioned Section (b)) or refund the license or service fees you paid

> VMware receives prompt written notice of the non-conformity following delivery (in the case of Software

So,

If the product isn't accessible: they'll write down the way it isn't. Period.

If the product doesn't do what it says it does, and you notice it quickly after purchase: Either 1. they provide technical support, OR 2. they refund your purchase price. And it's VMware who decides.

If the product doesn't do what it says it does, but you don't know until later: You're still screwed.

There is no guarantee of performance or suitability for purpose here. There is no guarantee of fixing anything.
At worst, "you weren't prompt". At best, yes you get your money back. On the average, maybe you're given a phone number to call, and that person will ask if you've rebooted your computer.

This is actually still really bad for risk management; you have no guarantees that anything will keep working, just that after several months of running your platform on this stack, you might get refunded the purchase price. (Which leaves open the question, does that invalidate your software license, and do you now have to emergency migrate to a different stack?)

So, what you said earlier really isn't true:

> For example, if your proprietary software has a bug, you call the developer and demand they come into your office and fix it under warranty.

Also, your earlier

> Doesn’t work that way for some dependency downloaded from GitHub.

The above is true for every single open source dependency you download from Github! You'll be refunded your $0 purchase price, immediately!
Since the human society is better at disaster management than prevention, I would like to read at least one article which provides a solution instead of screaming end of the world.

Given that world temperature would rise by 2C or even 4C by end of the century, I would say more resources should be put towards climate prediction and building infrastructure. But again, I can't make an informed opinion, since all my searches lead me to climate change prevention articles instead of management.

For example, Pakistan might need to build better infrastructure and may also need to switch crops depending on how the rains would be in the future. I would like to see a well researched year by year ( and by region ) prediction if humanity decides not to take any action to prevent climate change.
I don't know what to say. I can only speak to my experiences.

Alcohol, drugs, etc. just don't appeal to me. I don't mind if other people partake.

I'm sure a psychologist with 100% oversight into my life might cry foul on something. Too much social media, too little exercise, too much time reading cryptography papers, etc. I'm not sure how much that would overlap with "something else that's addictive and unhealthy" however.

Bought one a year ago here in Australia - went to an IRL retailer (!) who said they would put us on the list for their next shipment. About a week later, we got it.

Seems there are still ongoing issues though.
I think space is one of those places where you can appeal to unknown unknowns being a major risk factor and everyone agrees. But I personally think that the better option is to just do all of this on the moon. Making a human-habitable base on the moon, to me, still makes the most sense for preparing for habitation on other worlds.
I disagree. You can support immigrants being allowed to work without supporting all parts of the system!

Cause and effect is what matters. Not some abstract purity test of "supporting a system" that's totally disconnected from actual moral outcomes. If you advocate a policy that blocks immigrants from working in the US, you are directly causing their suffering. If your position aligns closely with ethnonationalists, it's time for some deep introspection. This is malevolence masquerading as compassion.
Sony will have already factored in the cost saving over the entire lifespan of the product.

I recall that the original Playstation 3 was a massive loss leader. Despite being hugely expensive it was pretty much the cheapest Blu Ray player on the market at the time. They were able to sell it at a loss because gaining a foothold was critical to selling it for a profit later on and the projected savings would let them recoup their losses.

If cost of living and inflation weren't crazy right now across the world then I'm sure we'd be looking at a price drop on the Playstation 5 right now as that's where their projected margins would leave them. But factoring in both the cost savings and inflation means they still need a price rise just to keep on track.
But will Google respect this agreement? If the expected fines are lower the the value extracted from the data or if they can drag the eventual lawsuits for a long time, I'm pretty sure they will just exploit that information anyway.
I'd like to start from a worldview of abundance and invite you to imagine a future in which we (as a society) will be able to answer a related question: What are the prerequisites for accomplishing the missing, painful 20% of any project out there?
What would it mean to lose a job or source of income you never had? I’m not sure I’m following but curious what you mean.
The contracts to buy gas were denominated in euros, they then refused to pay in euros and in fact seized the euros that were already paid but not yet converted. Even the most generous interpretation of a contract would struggle to consider this sort of behaviour not a violation.
I imagine someone may one day do the same for me, but sadly most of my photos are clogged with mundane screenshots and repeint pictures and other junk.
You are completely missing the point of this thread. Even if we morally agree with all your points, the claim is that less books will get written and that that's bad for all of us.

To rebut this, you need to either argue that this won't happen, suggest an alternative incentive for books to get written, or maybe even disagree that this result is bad.
It shows how immature of a world we live in that ideas become automatically discredited at the highest levels depending on who's saying those ideas out loud.

> increasing base load generation is of limited help

Of course, but in a system trying to avoid fossil fuel use, it smooths out the rough edges in significant ways: during non-peak times, by preventing blackouts or brownouts when there are medium to long term wind & solar outages (which no realistic storage can cover yet in places without pumped hydro), and during peak times by reducing the amount of additional energy required.
The manga model ?

I'm not sure I like that idea. The best books are edited over multiple times after completion.

I like it as a way for the most hard-core fans to track a work in progress. But not weekly progress as canonical record of the book actually was.
For starters: to compare reliability (which is a statistic), you need to first look at more than a single anecdotal time sample.

This is like... highschool level stuff. (Which is also the reason why I have very little will to refute your points, because they seem to be done from either dishonesty or ignorance. Anyone on HN is old enough to understand why anecdotal single sample evidence is not a way to refute statistical phenomena).

That is to say - even if EDF massively, critically fscked up this time, it has little effect to the reliability of nuclear power as a whole. Just like a single exploding windmill in Denmark doesn't change much about reliability of wind power.

Highlighting this, it doesn't get nearly enough attention:

That's because this isn't a new slim model, just a minor internal revision. These never got big fanfare. There's like 10 different PS2 revisions for example and a similar number of PS3 revisions. Highlighting that you removed a handful of LEDs to save 43 cents on each unit isn't usually done. Occasionally there is a bigish difference like the original PS2s having their PCMIA slot replaced with a HDD slot or the slimline PS2 getting an integrated power supply near the end but often it wasn't visible unless you opened the unit and compared.

The only time I remember people seriously caring was for the 360 where every new revision was speculated to be the fix for RROD.

Those documents would be circumstantial evidence because they only show that the author claimed that there were radar tapes showing something hit TWA 800.

If the radar tapes still exist and can be presented as evidence, that would still be circumstantial evidence because they only show what the radar measured. The meaning of those measurements require interpretation to come to a conclusion that a missile hit TWA 800.

I’m not saying this would not be strong evidence, just that it would be circumstantial evidence and not direct evidence.

There is apparently a rule that you cannot park between 34th st during midday hours.

No signs anywhere say this.

In fact, the parking meter signs actually state specific hours which you cannot park - Intentionally misleading people into thinking you CAN park during these other times.

It’s a major scam and many people are getting parking tickets for no reason. It’s not until you dispute it that you learn about this rule.

I think a lot of people think we can eliminate a lot of things, but cannot properly pick the things to eliminate. I think there is a lot of bullshit we hate to do, that is still necessary; or alternately, we can't eliminate it due to some sort of momentum or systemic reliance on that bullshit.

In healthcare, I imagine there is a lot of bullshit that would still have momentum in a post-single-payer world that we couldn't eliminate right away, but I still want that. See my other recent comment, I went into more detail on why I think single-payer would be great, but isn't a panacea for healthcare costs and efficiency.
Part of the pro-nuclear 'lobby' seems to be people who can't handle that wind and solar are less predictable.

So they create horror stories where the lights go out when there is no wind in the middle of the night in winter. And then nuclear has to save the day.

Any kind of storage is immediately dismissed as infeasible or too expensive.

The make it extra scary, this article also introduces importing electricity as really bad. Without any kind of argument why just a single number of how much is imported shows how bad it is.

This way, shutting down a nuclear plant in Germany can be made extra scary because of a few neighboring countries that import electricity.
appreciate it, that makes more sense.
Simply cost. If the plants started in the early 2000s would have been delivered on time and budget they would be a huge part of the transition today.

Now nuclear costs 3-5x more compared to renewables and is simply not relevant.
