Floating point bitmaps are a lot more common than you think. A lot of consumers don't see them, but their software will internally use floats. Floating point bitmaps are standard practice in visual effects and animation. The OpenEXR format exists for the exchange of images with floating point bit depths up to 32.

You are massively missing the facts that:

1) there are multiple OTHER pipelines from Russia to the EU, and NatGas can be shipped by sea (as is now being done from the US); NS1 was not the only route, and NS2 was barely online, and already Germany was heavily dependent on Russian supplies. So it would still be easy to make a settlement with Russia to get more NatGas and oil if the EU wanted.

2) Russia has a LONG history of creating non-military disruption in target countries to gain advantage. Simple disruption of the political situation in the EU is very advantageous to Russia, they would hope it causes at the very least a diversion of funds and attention from supporting Ukraine to dealing with domestic unrest.

3) A new pipeline from Norway was opened literally the same day. This sends a message: "Nice pipeline you have there, it'd be a shame if anything happened to it.". This further creates uncertainty and stress in the EU.

All of these benefit Russia and it's Ukraine genocide efforts directly and significantly.

That said, there is definitely the possibility that it could also backfire, and strengthen the will of the EU to avoid Russia as a completely unreliable and exploitative supplier, and as you say, reply with "FU, we're sending more tanks to Ukraine". I sincerely hope so.

Disagreed; most people are in the "Don't care, will get vaccinated" crowd. In real life (not in fringe groups on the internet), most of the people were glad to take it.
With the pipeline gone for good

The physical pipeline is still there and mostly fine. Fixing the holes is expensive and requires the right expertise and equipment, but most experts I've seen quoted in the media seem to agree that it could definitely be done within a year, and probably faster, if everybody involved really wanted to.

Python is reference counted and it is very clear in this code that a reference to the file isn't leaked, so the file will be reliably closed at the end of the statement.

Thankfully there's an internationally recognised description of genocide:

https://www.un.org/en/genocideprevention/genocide.shtml

The mental element, "intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such", is publicly there, in official speeches and everything.

The physical element ticks every box besides "Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group", that we know of. The Russian army tortures murders civilians indiscriminately, puts them in grave peril (without access to food, water, heating), and kidnaps children.

It's textbook genocide.

Even posturing to begin that process would knock tens of billions off TSMC's market cap and spike its funding costs, to say nothing about complicating its contract negotiations with every other customer. They did it, after all, to Intel.
Social media has turned human relationships into commodities. It encourages attention seeking behavior and turns a lot of average people into personal brand ambassadors. The author of the article, for example, seems to view their group of family, friends, colleges, etc. not as just a set of personal connections, but as an audience. And when a human thinks they have an audience, they feel pressure to preform, and pressure to grow the audience.
Same thing with, e.g., firefox on ubuntu. Not only do you have to hunt for free space, but because of visual design (in turn because of vanity and frivolity, IMO) it's not clear where it is until you mouse over it and display its highlighted color. The "close" button barely even changes color on the default theme, so god forbid you single-click it. And tabs can accidentally be dragged, rather than just failing to drag the entire window.

This next part is more of a funny absurd story than a complaint, but I once had a recurring bug where the browser UI was shifted down a hundred or so pixels from the top of the window, replaced by some flat "blank" color. But the interactions were still taking place in their expected areas. So in order to fix that, I had to hunt around with my mouse at the top of the window, look for UI elements to become highlighted in the middle of the window, and then move left or right until I was confident I was over the title bar (which I couldn't know for sure, since it itself doesn't highlight).
In my experience I think it helps a ton with non-verbal communication. I would never demand someone have their camera on apart from interviews/important conversations. But I can visibly see if someone is confused/engaged/understanding if I can physically see them and I think there's something too that.
Yeah the scale of complexity in these deals must be way way beyond the sticker price.
Something can be both "simply a job" and different than most jobs. The argument is that sex work isn't inherently immoral, so deserves to be supported by our financial infrastructure. It's "simply a job" in the sense that it deserves legitimacy, not that it's exactly like most other jobs.

Institutional support instead of prosecution also comes with the benefit of at least partially undermining the black market of the work, and the additional crimes that are frequently associated with sex work.
Check out FancyZones in Microsoft PowerToys.
This can be a consistent position if you can do two things: 1. Propose what to replace sex work with for those engaging in it voluntarily or as a way to make ends meet (i.e. the same duress that we accept as normal in capitalism) and 2. draw a distinction between "sex work" renting out your body and a bunch of other jobs that share characteristics:

- actors (non-porn, but sex scenes, full or partial nudity, kissing etc)

- gastronomy (hooters as an extreme example, hostesses at conferences/buffets less so, the emotional and physical expectations placed on normal waitresses)

- modeling

- construction, truck driving, health care and other "will wreck your body and possibly mental health" professions

- butchers, executioners, soldiers and other jobs which are "voluntarily" doing things which in current norms are not acceptable to do in public or regularly

I'm personally not convinced we should target sex work per se if we want to save people being forced into it by circumstances or people, but we should target the circumstances or people that cause the duress. If people still want to do sex work then, hey, it's a free country.
True, but it is somewhat more complicated than that, the process in general is linear but you want to keep your workers occupied and not waiting for something, especially the specialist- drywalls can be built, the electrician can start working and plumbers connect things as soon as the first floor is up, but they need to bring equipment and workers to the site so they are usually called a little late to be more efficient and work continuously.

But generally speaking a building project gantt chart is relatively flat.

I've played Eve and gave up specifically because of the terrible grind: in skills, in credits, in ships, etc. Yes, there is a lot of emergent gameplay that only surfaces once you're in a big guild, but I never got to experience that because the early-game grind of mining asteroids etc. was so tedious. Eventually I read about the huge armadas and giant wars, but it takes a lot of dedication to get there. It's a lot of players grinding out an entire logistics network...

At an abstract level, that sort of cooperative team-vs-team supply chain building plus faction warfare isn't new either or unique to Eve. Eve's scale is impressive, don't get me wrong, but it's still a lot of grinding.

Then having him still in the interview chain is an organization failure and a great signal to the interviewee (you) that team dynamics are going to be a problem.
I think this is such a progressive view because many religious and some secular people still uphold the belief in the sanctity of marriage. To them sex never stopped being the most intimate and precious thing to share with a spouse and no one else. Add the fact that the rebranding of prostitution into sex work is still a very recent thing plus some things falling under the umbrella of sex work being very illegal in many places means that outside of twitter and extremely progressive spaces like universities no one wants to associate with someone that has turned the most socially taboo act possible into a business.
> charging 6% more for the 3nm process seems reasonable

I imagine the negotiations largely centre around timeline and quantity guarantees, as well as capability. Apple is cutting back iPhone Pro production [1]. If 3nm won't enable features that sell more iPhones, or if the market is shifting from a feature focus to one on costs, 6% more for 3nm may make sticking with five more profitable.

HN guidelines strongly encourage that for the sake of removing editorial from the submission, but adding something at least a little descriptive is good to keep people from wasting their time. This got traction because of the domain, not the title.

> Take it out to the author of the article for not making a more descriptive title, if at all.

> Technology bifurcates problems. 99% of problems go away, but the 1% that are left are awful. Case in point customer service: 99% of the time you don’t even need customer service from Amazon, etc. but the 1% of the time you do you’re suddenly in a story by Kafka.

This is not an accurate characterization. Technology does not cause this problem, business owners or leaders deciding to not spend sufficient resources on customer service causes this problem. Technology helps the 99% and 99.9% to never need customer service.

But people who do not want to spend to provide customer service (perhaps because customers will go to a competitor with lower prices because they also chose to sacrifice customer service for the 0.1%) cause the lack of customer service.

Show HN: Create decision optimization models in minutes
Hi HN! I’m a founder at Nextmv (YC 20) [1]. We just shipped a big release that makes it easier to build customizable decision optimization models. It's free to try and only takes a few minutes to get set up [2] and run decision models [3] for vehicle routing, shift scheduling, packing problems, and Sudoku. Each model is customizable for constraints and objective functions [4]. We're also adding things like MIP support.

You can also create something entirely custom. We build on top of our SDK regularly. (There's an interesting PagerDuty scheduler we've built that we'll share more about soon!)

We hope you try it out and we're happy to answer any questions.

>On one hand, I think that the free market would create payment processors willing to work with the groups rejected by others.

These already exist and are sometimes known as "high risk" processors. They charge a lot more for the privilege of accepting payments for what industry has deem high risk transactions due to larger rates of chargebacks. Typical examples are paid subscription to a porn site, but then the card owner claims it was not them that paid for it. CBD/Delta-8/Delta-10/Delta-9 sales are also considered high risk for various reasons with one due to their legality questionable in some states.

> I'm beginning to wonder though if there isn't some space short of stopping a person from doing something

That’s why moral norms exist in every human society. Most people need some sort of support from society to make good decisions for themselves and their families. It’s no different than how an exercise or diet regimen is easier to stick to if you do it along with other people to provide support and yes shaming if necessary.

Intellectuals project their own capacities onto sex workers, and say that if they did sex work—which they don’t—it would be for “freedom of expression” and “economic rights.” But the fact is that sex work is like myriad other dangerous and unpleasant jobs society has seen fit to regulate or ban. Society seeks to create a floor below which people can’t sink through desperation or bad choices.

> If you assign a primitive type's value to another variable, the value is copied - not assigned a reference to the first variable (which is what happens for objects).

Assigning an object also just copies the value - i.e. the reference to the heap value. So the new variable does not end up pointing to the first variable. Rather, both variables end up pointing to the same heap value.

It's one thing to report that "some people have side effects". It's another to correctly assess the magnitude of the problem, doing epidemiologist studies on a national scale, making sure all doctors report the problem, understanding why it took so long to surface, why the pharmaceutical studies didn't report them...

Basically, admitting the public recommendation of getting a shot wasn't adequate to a certain public, do a grown up post-mortem of that recommendation, and compensate the victims.
That's awesome and it's free, about to swap out my recaptchas
The French writer Houellebecq had a pretty compelling explanation for this. With religious norms ebbing away or being transformed (even among right-wingers), sexuality becomes another market parallel to the standard economic one. This was always the case, but the shifting norms speed up and formalize the process. All else being equal, in a scenario where sexuality exists but restrictive norms don't, the natural conclusion is that people with sexual capital will have a rich and varied sexual life whereas those without much appeal in that spectrum will only know lifelong frustration. This mirrors economic inequality in a surprisingly close fashion: desperate swiping through a dating app for an average person is starting to look a lot like copypasting resumes on a job site.

One consequence of this is that people with little sexual capital will try to recreate norms anyway they can. Therefore we end up with a hodgepodge of ideas, religious or not, that have as their only link to one another the desire to enforce sexual restrictions and quell anxiety surrounding sexual prowess as much as possible. The extreme form of this is the incel desire to legally enforce monogamy and erase women's rights, but the less ambitious equivalents take on the form of the counterrevolution you are describing here.
