I'm building for myself without concrete, stick-frame or drywall. I decided to go more traditional with stone and timber frame joinery. It's an approach that takes a lot more attention in the labour and is hard to mass produce but will last as close to indefinitely as anything can, as well as being more environmentally friendly.

Doing this has given me a much stronger appreciation for how much we rely on fossil combustion in all the basic infrastructure of our society. Producing things for longevity is going to be a big part of reducing our carbon emissions, otherwise we just need to lug all that heavy concrete or steel or whatever around again every couple decades when we remake the poorly made things.
Crypto is even worse, for both customers and sex workers. A wad of cash is virtually untrackable and can be protected, crypto asset flows are by definition completely public, and the government already has the tools (both legal frameworks and the technology) to associate crypto accounts with identities.
I highly recommend taking the Steinway factory tour if you're in NY. It's $10 and the pre-covid waiting list was 6 months.
Steinway had a massive impact on the economy and infrastructure of Queens. Both pubic transport and movie studios were a direct consequence of the local factory.

The reason that Apple is able to sell iPads and iPhones is that they are small computers, something which Apple has made and sold from day 1. This is not true of cars. Apple's entire business model has been predicated on proprietary computer hardware that's smaller and more capable with each iteration. When it became possible to play music, watch videos, and make phone calls on these small computers, Apple started selling them for that. The only new business Apple has ever gotten into is media, and that rides on the back of their hardware.

None of this is true for cars! Apple's production, design, marketing, etc. have no overlap with how cars are made or sold -- and no amount of wishing or money will give them that overlap. It's not that it's a new business for Apple, cars are completely unrelated to anything Apple has ever made or done. No business in history has ever pulled off a switch like that. It's the reason that railroads never became airlines, for example.

Even with unlimited capital, Apple lacks the mindset to produce and market a car out of thin air -- a task which is difficult even for those entrenched in the industry.
They could use one of the private ones.

I served as a kingdom herald when I was active in the Society for Creative Anachronism a few years ago. Learning blazon (the descriptive language of heraldry) was a lot of fun - the rigid syntax with its DRY goal of describing armory with as little repetition as possible reminded me somewhat learning a programming language.

I don't think it is completely useless, but I hate to build any argument in classical philosophy. No, I do not want to start my argument with Aristoteles and follow the whole chain until I can make a case at some point. Aristoteles is a giant that certainly founded a lot of scientific fields, but the basis of an argument is not improved with a whole theoretical foundation that is artificially attached to the point.

I believe the affliction is that because your philosophical case needs to be argued, it is expected to have a foundation in some philosophical root. With allegedly gives it more weight than just another thought.

It is sensible to read other philosophers I guess, but I think people should be encouraged to argue on their own.
> it is very clear in this code that a reference to the file isn't leaked

Is it? What if an exception is thrown? See e.g. this SO answer[1]:

> However if an exception is thrown [...] then a reference to the file will be kept as part of the stack trace in the traceback object and the file will not be closed, at least until the next exception is thrown.

So your code, if called from somewhere else inside a try block, leaks a filehandle potentially indefinitely.

Particle physicist here (relatively new to the field). I mostly do not understand the problem of Dr. Hossenfelder and others like her.

One thing I often see and it seems reiterated here is 'Why do we need more and bigger expensive colliders?'. In general, in the particle physics community right now there isn't much of a push for 'bigger colliders'. Scientists seem to have agreed that the low-energy precision physics frontier might be more fruitful for a fraction of the cost. Even the Mecca of collider physics acknowledges that and have lunched the 'Physics Beyond Colliders' study group https://pbc.web.cern.ch/
Also, there are numerous experiments done at the LHC which are not 'search for new particles'. Yes, the main goal of the LHC was to discover the Higgs boson and the great hopes were that supersymmetry (SUSY) particles will start falling from the sky. Now we know that SUSY is most probably not the way the world works and the efforts are mostly abandoned. Especially by younger physicists in the field.

The other problem that people seem to have is with the current directions in physics which in this blogpost are referred to as 'pseudo-problems' such as: "the baryon asymmetry or the smallness of the cosmological constant".
These might not be problems on the same scale as "What the hell is this dark matter??" or "How do we reconcile general relativity with the Standard Model?", but in my opinion it would be a bigger waste of resources to focus all of physics in only the few big questions and leave everything else unexplored. Yes, from a certain point of view you could say that there is no reason that matter and antimatter should be equal in the universe so the baryon asymmetry is not a real problem, but still, there is no explanation yet why everything we see is matter and antimatter is next to non-existent in the Universe.

tl;dr: The money that go to collider physics are not 100% of the money that go into particle physics and generally there are no plans in the community for larger colliders at least in the next 25 years. (the Future Circular Collider has quite a long way to go before its even considered for building)
My basic understanding is it will reduce the current price of government borrowing. Also they were concerned that existing gilts held by pension firms would be so devalued that they’d trigger some kind of mandatory sell-off (with the associated negative effects on the rest of the market).
Messages are only editable within 2 hrs so I write another message expressing my additional thoughts and thanks:

As important as having integrity is a community that prioritizes and fosters integrity. The HN community skipped the fostering part and went straight to giving me referrals and interviews. I'm grateful, and I'll carry on the spirit when I'm in the position to do so. The opportunities I've derived are nothing but amazing, but the most important thing I've learned is to internalize integrity as one of my greatest strengths: In the face of adversity and unfairness, I'll stand up for myself and others.

Also, thanks for those telling me internship finding is going to get better. I am not pessimistic about it at all, but I was trying to be funny by "impersonating" the previous top comment, it fits the theme. I find myself maniacally focused when practice algorithms, and I enjoy focusing.

This whole time of writing this I have that one scene from Scent of A Woman repeating in my head: "And I have seen boys like these, younger than these, their arms torn out, their legs ripped off. But there isn't nothin' like the sight of an amputated spirit; there is no prosthetic for that."
In the far left in the States it's considered work, and something that should be well regulated and safe.

The center left/centrist (Democrats) position is more split. Some folks think it's a bodily autonomy issue and others think it's degrading.

Feminist opinion is likewise split. But most feminists I know tend to fall in the, "if it's consensual, it should be protected and regulated work. You shouldn't fear going to jail because you had sex."

So, it's a mix of opinions out here.
The risk factors are the same. The only thing that scales with the size of the operation is the dollar value of the risk.

And civilized society routinely sets a floor for that “work or starve” dynamic, ensuring that there isn’t a race to the bottom and desperate people aren’t forced to take certain kinds of jobs. That’s because we understand that the legality of certain kinds of jobs creates social pressure on people in tough circumstances to do those jobs.

Such regulation inherently requires society to make decisions about what sort of work should be off limits to reduce social pressure to do those jobs. You might not agree that sex work falls in that category, but women themselves decisively do: https://www.vox.com/2016/3/11/11203740/prostitution-legal-me...

And as to your own view, do you think unemployment offices should tell women to look for jobs in sex work before they can get unemployment benefits? After all it’s just another job right?
Kind of related to the financial aspects of this article: why is the housing market treated as the basis/most important part of the US economy and not, specifically, energy or finance? The article talks about financial institutions' ability to hinder or even halt growth altogether, and we saw similar actions being taken in Canada last year with the truckers. With regards to energy, I've heard that the cheaper energy is to produce in a nation, the wealthier it tends to be.

> In June, we announced an effort with Apple to use Private Access Tokens. Visitors using operating systems that support these tokens, including the upcoming versions of macOS or iOS, can now prove they’re human without completing a CAPTCHA or giving up personal data.

> By collaborating with third parties like device manufacturers, who already have the data that would help us validate a device, we are able to abstract portions of the validation process, and confirm data without actually collecting, touching, or storing that data ourselves. Rather than interrogating a device directly, we ask the device vendor to do it for us.

The trick is that bot farms do not have access to correctly provisioned mobile phones (for now). Thus anyone with a valid mobile device gets a pass.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branching_factor:

“For example, in chess, if a "node" is considered to be a legal position, the average branching factor has been said to be about 35, and a statistical analysis of over 2.5 million games revealed an average of 31.”

So, if (all) you can assume is that the receiver can write down all legal moves and order them in some way, it seems ≈5 bits are sufficient (so, one letter or digit is more than enough). You should vary code length depending on the number of legal moves (That is less than the 6 bits you need to indicate a single field on the board)

I think ease of understanding of the message and robustness of transmission may be more important than message length, though.
IT is billions of dollars to get a chip fab. I know of several companies that have looked into it (our core competency is manufacturing - why not add chips to the list of things we make and get out of these supply issues..), but the cost to get into it is far too high. Though I suspect some of those companies are regretting the decision over the past 2 years, they could have made the investment back just because we can make those chips you need for a price (to others who can't get needed chips at any price)
Just as another point of reference. I followed the windows install. I'm running this on my 1060 with 6GB memory. With no setting changes takes about 10 seconds to generate an image. I often run with sampling steps up to 50 and that takes about 40 seconds to generate an image.

This is the point - sex work is a job just like any other and deserves at least the same protections as any other job.
I would hope it would be. Pornographers use the courts to enforce their copyrights and other business arrangements. A good test for an anti-censorship payment processor would be handling payments for legal sex work.
I live in the WUI among trees. We've already spent $20,000 removing some fuels, and are spending $30,000 to remove more. This is in a county with a median annual income of $26,000.

We can only afford this because of my remote tech worker salary. My neighbors aren't as privileged.

The state could contribute more funds to these efforts, helping property owners reduce the fuels around their homes and improve defensible space.
Honestly, I'm surprised they haven't started yet. If TSMC puts up too much of a fight, they might start internally considering how they would get into chip fabrication. They've already done everything else to great success (and to much surprise), so while the problem seems insurmountable, maybe Apple would be able to do what nobody else has been able to do in decades (aside from the Chinese with significant state investment).

Just wanted to highlight my favorite part of this article. As a "hobby blogger" I love how the author constructed this statement.
I forget where I read this, so bear with me.

125ish is the minimum IQ range to be mentally capable of understanding anything.

It's not _that_ far off the norm. It's an exceptionally bright person. It's like 90th-95th percentile. You're 1 in 10 or 20.

And that's to do anything. The absolute limit of our understanding can be comprehended if you are "pretty smart". It's why Feynman and Hawking didn't really give a shit about IQ. It doesn't unlock any more doors. It might get you to them faster, but at the end of the day, you gotta put in the work.

And that's where we do fail our brightest. The most important lesson to learn is that hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard.
Lots and lots more of it.

I'd actually love to see such a paper. Plan 9 threading is more like coroutines, but it is certainly possible to run multi-core/multi-process code.

That said, I can't say I've seen anyone try to write anything that scales like nginx on Plan 9. That doesn't mean it hasn't happened, I've just not seen anyone talk about it too much.

It did run on IBM's Blue Gene for a bit (https://www.usenix.org/legacy/event/usenix07/posters/vanhens...) but as you can see that was some 15 years ago, and I'm not sure we're talking about anything even remotely similar to a single computer handling tons of concurrent connections.

Plan 9 can also run Go binaries, but, again, not really sure we're talking about the same thing as nginx-level scale.
another key hint:

The gas is apparently still flowing out of the pipes at pressure - this can happen only if Russia is still pumping, for which the only purpose would be to spend money to create an environmental disaster - another distraction/disruption.

It's a move designed to affect market psychology mainly. Multiple central banks have concluded that QE at best contributes marginally to the reduction of long term interest rates. People want something to be done, and BoE delivers.

It also shifts the discussion from "what's causing the fall of the pound and the rise of long term rates" to "what will be the effect of this new round of QE?"

To get a better picture, take a broader view. This move comes as all of the world's currencies are falling against the dollar. Why?

I think where the ship runs aground is that sexual things are treated as intrinsically amoral, because people feel its amoral. However, that feeling is no more legitimate than "green is the best color" (because my brain tells me it's the best).

Edit: Just want to add - Homosexuality has the same illogical hurdle. It feels immoral to many people, so therefore it must be immoral. People are largely unable to separate their lizard brain instincts from logical analysis. So we end up with gays being stoned to death.
> I would argue that renting out your body in the most intimate way is very different from most jobs.

A coal worker or someone working a similaily harsh job is also renting out their body in ways that might ultimatly proof to be far more destructive to their lives. Whether someone can perform a sexual act for money or not is on a base level purely a question of personal preference. Just like some people enjoy acting or being on stage and others don't. The question is if you are forced into doing it or under which conditions you have to do your work. For sex workers it is pretty clear that their working conditions are coupled to how accepting society is of that job. If it is basically criminalized, you will have criminals run the business hidden from society. If you have it accepted and strictly regulated, there might still be criminals, but the individual sex workers have a greater agency in how, when, with whom they work.

Puritan religious ideas in that context are powerful if you believe in them, but meaningless if you don't. Sexuality comes in many forms and not everybody feels a strong connection between sexuality and love (which is e.g. why many sex workers would rather have sex with someone than kissing them).
