Sacrifice for the greater good is the wrong way of framing it. It’s not a sacrifice at all. It’s a prudent investment.

If a huge tree next to your house is starting to lean and is in danger of falling and causing tens of thousands worth of damage to your roof and exterior, is paying a few thousand to remove the tree a sacrifice?

Yes we could adapt to climate change but investing now in non-carbon-based technologies would be far cheaper and safer.

This wrong framing is actually the fault of the environmental movement which from the start has framed this like a moral panic and reform crusade. I credit that to the movement emerging from a culture with protestant puritan DNA. We got “forgive me nature for I have sinned” which is bullshit.

George Carlin gave a good retort. “Stop saying save the Earth! The Earth will be fine. We are fucked.”

We are what we are trying to save. “Nature” will be fine.
Although I think it's fair to characterize the left as favoring collectivism, I don't think it's fair to characterize them as following government rules any more than the right.

Typically speaking, the left want government rules determined by scientists and experts that maximizes overall freedom, the right want government rules determined by the church that maximizes the freedoms of adherents to that church.

So while the left may favor following mask mandates or vaccination drives because it benefits the overall physical health of the community; the right favors abortion bans, banning trans healthcare treatments, outlawing gay marriage, and barring race from being discussed in schools for--presumably--the moral health of the community.

The right is arguing these things are for the greater good in the same way the left argues wearing a mask in the supermarket is. Both sides want their governments to enact and enforce these rules. I'd argue that telling someone to wear cloth on their face is a lighter government touch than forcing 10 year old rape victims to travel 500 miles for care, but I digress.

After all, the government tells you to wear pants and I don't see people calling anyone sheep for doing so.
The study was done in Brasil, which has a very meat-intensive food culture (IIUC). I imagine that skews the results.

You don’t have to rewrite anything. C++ keeps backward compatibility. You don’t have to make it sound like it’s the case, and you don’t have to shame the "modern c++ crowd" over that false claim. That’s just uncalled for, unconstructive and partisan discourse. I expect better from HN.
Ask HN: Any blog platforms with support for Org files?
Not a fan of using the Emacs UI. Do like the Org syntax.

What are your favorite managed blog platforms with support for Org?
I do a bit of both. A few UL items allow me to bring some luxury along without being overly heavy.

For example, I’ll bring a hammock or Helinox camp chair. Both around a pound. Having a place to flop by the campfire at the end of a long day is really nice.
In 2003, the Belgian government decided to stop producing nuclear energy, mostly driven by the Green party. They introduced a law that contained a schedule to shut down a number of nuclear power plants in the country.

In 2015 the government already extended the lifespan of 2 nuclear power plants. However, the power plant that was just shut down (Doel 3) did not get an extension of lifespan and so it has been shut down according to the initial law introduced in 2003.

It's an understatement to say it's unfortunate that it has been shut during an energy crisis.
This is such an asinine point of view. It’s like with Covid, how we forgot literally every other risk factor and instead opted to put blinders on and only focus on one thing. This leads to ridiculous outcomes like the BC government officially recommending the use of gloryholes to prevent the spread of Covid (while of course ignoring the risk of stds and everything else).
You might as well have leaned on the keyboard, it wouldn’t look much different. This is not readable code.
Good point I hope is true but I was also mostly referring to the inexistant (not even in roadmap) hardware acceleration support.

Texas is the opposite of this situation because they purposely didn’t connect their grid to anyone else. The US equivalent for mismanagement would be the Colorado River.

>US leaders knowingly sacrificed a lot domestic industry in order to build up a China

Lol, no - they sacrificed it for profits. Same with India. Also, China is liberalizing quite quickly; in many aspects it’s already more liberal than parts of Europe. But it doesn’t matter - it’s just an American propaganda talking point, as evidenced by not having an issue with much less liberal US Allie’s, like Saudi Arabia.

> because unhappy people are more likely to want change.

Things are constantly changing wrt. societal+economic measures - Gini, GDP, longevity (excl. short term perturbations). If anything conservatives might be unhappy that things are changing at all, and left-wing supporters that they're not changing fast enough.

There’s an explosion of new movements and techniques to fight procrastination, from Pomodoro (which gives you timed breaks when your tomato-shaped kitchen timer runs out) to self-help books and subreddits...

The highlight of my early 20s was embracing the hedonism treadmill as a rejection of "imposed morals", only to spend countless hours trying tons of self help books and listening to podcasts about discipline and grit and motivation and positive thinking, etc.

At some point, no matter which path you take, you'll find good secular justification for limiting your exposure to toxic people in life and limiting your swearing to improve your vocabulary and avoiding processed food, short term hookups, sleeping well, helping others, meditating, saying affirmations, thinking positively(using faith to counteract "rational evidence" that something will fail or wont work) and so on.

You're following so many rules (self developed through experience and knowledge) that it gives you more appreciation for how the different religions were themselves using heuristics developed over thousands of years of trial and error to give you an optimal set of rules that would more than likely produce the best outcome for your life, given the environmental constraints and lack of scientific knowledge at the time. It was not simply "sky daddy made rulebook"
Perhaps this was simply because the National Semiconductor people were allowed to make mistakes, whereas for ARM it was crucial to get it right the first time.

It also tells that designing hardware is perhaps not as hard as most software engineers make it out to be.
Eh? There's the NVI comparison operator that fits that bill and maybe the std::forward_iterator one but the rest? Most of the other fixes was less code that's also simpler. Or are you getting thrown off by things like the enum slides where it's 3 different solutions all presented on a single slide?

> Which is exactly what happens when using shared objects.

Right. This has nothing to do to gcc, clang and even C++ though. I would be surprised if you could freely link C shared objects linked to different libc implementations.

On most Linux distros both gcc and clang link to libstdc++, so everything works out of the box. I imagine this is not the case for MacOS xcode and gcc from homebrew.

Your post would be a lot more convincing without the easy scape goat identifying and cursing.
Agreed. One aspect I’d like to understand better is how the dynamics will change. Eg today a highly popular post can stay up for a whole day. I get the sense that the new algo may flush things through more rapidly:

Consider two posts, with upvote rates p1 and p2 with p1 =2p2. That is the first is twice as good as the second.

Now if the second post is half as old as the first it would actually have about 2x the score of the first, despite being half as good.

This suggests more quality posts will get a chance to sit on the front page but each may stay less time — if so this would exacerbate the OP’s concern.
In 1999, to obtain the participation of the greens in the government, the other parties agreed to the closing of nuclear reactors after 40 years of operation [1]. 2022 seemed like a long time away at the time, especially in politics.

In 2012, small cracks were discovered in the pressure vessels of a number of reactors, introduced by hydrogen during the casting of the steel. That was grist on the mill of the anti-nuclear lobby. According to the expert reports, the vessels should be ok (there are some links to English reports on the nuclear safety agency website [2]), but it is easy to fear-monger when nuclear energy is involved. That seemed to have sealed the fate of the nuclear reactors.

I’m part of a running group with a mix of Garmin and Apple Watches and the Apple Watches always have pretty different distant readings according to Strava, maybe 2%-5%. The Garmin devices are generally much closer together.

I wonder if the dual-band GPS on the Apple Watch Ultra is an attempt to fix these problems? I would guess that it’s software, with the author, if for no other reason than I’d be surprised if Garmin were all that much better at putting GPS in a tiny housing than Apple.

Google is pretty proud of their record of not losing user data. As far as I know, they have never permanently lost even one byte of consumer data.

“The closing dates are determined by law and the licenses to operate the power plants end on those dates. That has been established for a long time and we have been preparing for that for a long time.”

The government did ask Engie in July to see whether both reactors could possibly continue for a few more months to bridge the difficult winter, but according to the French energy group, that is unfeasible both technically and in terms of safety.
> I, personally, think we should have built a lot of dodgy nuclear plants 20 years ago, aimed for too cheap to meter with the occasional meltdown, and try to go for hydroponics.

Ok? But that isn't what we are talking about now. The cheap energy we have now is fossil fuel.

I think we need to figure out how to de-complicate variable rates for residential customers. Forcing people to pay what electricity actually costs (ideally, in real-time) is a good way to make your demand-side much more responsive.

During the Texas winter crisis, virtually no residential customers saw a financial incentive to wind down power usage. Only those crazies on Griddy, et. al. were impacted.

Dual band GPS on my Garmin is certainly amazing. It is mind blowing seeing accuracy down to which side of the street I was on during a run.

I very literally linked to the scientific reports. The explanatory text next the graphic I mentioned explains how the bands between the lines represent the 33rd to 66th% confidence intervals. Its worth noting SR15 is the older report and AR6 has since tightened the bands/confidence-levels. They just didn't redo the graph so I still link to the SR15 one.

As someone who’s worked deeply on mainframe and minicomputer systems and then worked even more deeply in the cloud, there is really no point to mainframes anymore unless you are doing a realtime application, which in most cases is unnecessary.

The only value proposition I see is realtime redundancies, which are physically impossible with geographically distributed systems, but par for the course on mainframes. For most non-realtime applications, though, you can achieve same or better uptime for cheaper and with better flexibility building in the cloud.
