I second Kiwix. I found out about it not too long ago on the topic of portable Wikipedia readers. It really stands out as the best software part of such a solution.
This is where evopsych starts getting too close to psychoanalysis, and therefore bullshit.

Humans have this tendency to use some tool way beyond its realm of applicability.
I can imagine scenarios where some painful or disturbing memories would be a negative part of every day life, but I worry that 'what is to be erased' is not necessarily one of the parameters we can define clearly.
Twitter Edit Button Rolls Out for US Subscribers
Arctype is well-polished and feels very natural with ClickHouse, there are not many SQL UIs like this. Frankly speaking, there are not many JavaScript applications that don't look like garbage. At least Arctype is not slow.
>> You may be assuming that your ("the") normal conscious experience is base reality

> Yeah normal consciousness is normal, of course. That's not an assumption that I make, that just a basic fact.

To me, this is fascinating: I clearly compared normal consciousness to base reality but you decided(?) to reply as if I had said "normal consciousness is normal". To me, this is an excellent demonstration of the very thing I am talking about...both the phenomenon itself, but also this part: "...which is what it can be revealed to be with a relatively small amount of investigation" - more precisely: compare how people describe (their) reality, to the objective, shared reality that is literally printed on this web page.

Unfortunately, it is child's play for the subconscious to filter this sort of thing out before it reaches the "conscious awareness" stage of the pipeline (and then it still has to contend with ego, pride, cultural norms, post-hoc rationalization, etc) which may make this local maximum extremely difficult for humanity to break out of.
I think some of the persistence of hating on standardized tests is that standardized tests are one of the few barriers against the worst rich kids inheriting status from their parents.

Sure, a little bit of test prep will help many people, if you’ve never seen a standardized test before some familiarity is good for you. But some of these kids could not test their way out of a paper bag and the only hope for them is hire a ringer to take the test in their place.
The CLOUD Act affects all US companies.
this thread is making me feel like I'm going crazy
It's not -- FAT32 is the one with the 4GB limit. NTFS has much less native support on Macs than exFAT, though.
Also tons of cheap hydro-power. There used to be lots of Aluminum smelting up there, but that mostly moved out of country in the late 70's/early 80's.
You will never get approved, unless you have workarounds. Even if you did that 7% interest rate will make it all even out for most people.
Yeah, but hopefully the symbolic value adds to the momentum for actual decriminalization, sooner or later.

One of the early mini-scandals of the Biden White House was how "dozens of young White House staffers" were in trouble because they had believed "initial indications" that casual pot use would not automatically disqualify them from the job. And that seemed like a sure sign that Biden would be a real hard ass on pot use. Only 5 staffers out of "hundreds" were ultimately disqualified from the policy, and given what Biden has done today, we have some assurance he really is going to be sympathetic and reasonable about pot.

Avoiding allegations of 'rolling out the welcome mat for illegals' in GOP campaign commercials.
There are people who are bad at every job.

That doesn’t mean that the people who are hiring people into that role are looking to have someone do it badly. Or that anyone who wants such a role is automatically suspected of having nefarious motives.

These role archetypes are descriptions of realistic, reasonable expectations for high level IC roles. It’s a useful, positive contribution that will help engineering directors and senior coders better negotiate clearly defined roles and responsibilities.

It’s just not constructive to say ‘but yeah, sometimes when you employ someone at this level and you don’t clarify the role or hold them accountable, they do terrible things and it enables charlatans to prosper!’

Sure, of course it does. But this article is a useful and constructive model for helping prevent that from happening.

What you frame as an addition to the article actually represents a cynical undermining of its entire value. I think that’s a sad way to engage.
And this aphorism conflates ownership with possession. Crypto is a bad actors fantasy turned reality.

> The dot com bubble forming and then popping is a notable one, Enron's fraudulent ascent is another.

While I agree with this, I interpreted the parent comment as saying there was something specific about the Clinton administration's policies that led to short term thinking. New technology boom and busts have been going on since the dawn of the Industrial Revolution (just look at early railroads and auto companies); the dot com bubble had nothing specifically to do with Clinton. Similarly, WTF did Enron have to do with the Clinton administration?
Europe on the other hand spent their money on populist programs that kept their leftist politicians elected - and now it’s once again counting on good old USA’s help to keep the invading hordes at bay.

Ask HN: Why is Google offering it's new Pixel Watch for free?
Earlier today, Google launched new Pixel 7, 7 Pro, & Watch. In Europe (Germany), the cost of Pixel 7 is 649€, Pixel 7 Pro is 899€ & Pixel Watch costs 429€.

Now in Germany, Google is effectively offering Pixel Watch for free on purchase of Pixel 7 or 7 Pro. Either that, or Pixel Buds Pro (which is 200€+).

So my question is - What is Google hoping to achieve by providing a newly launched hardware for free. Important to note that Pixel 7 series costs the same as Pixel 6 series.
Democrats are the defund the police party nowadays
Thanks for that X1Wind tetrahedron link - I saw a similar one recently that used a truncated pyramid construction, with the blades rotating between the front and back pairs of legs.

Interestingly with these size is not the be-all and end-all. If you make them so that they fit in the average port (towed by an average pair of tugs), the range of locations where they can be installed increases a lot. As does the availability of ships usable for the install.
But the article is talking about MSR
What about your food?
Wow, this sounds like some exaggerated British stereotype. “You don’t die from it, it’s fine.”
Sarcasm aside, this is actually a good point.

Most apps are either unable to work without a semi-centralized database.

Or can work with local database and slow syncs to the cloud (a la Dropbox).

Very few apps fit between those two categories. Edge looks like a solution looking for a problem.
I am still using Pixel 3 and it really works well (mostly) despite no longer receiving software updates. It's so shameful that companies stop pushing updates to older hardware for no tangible reason.

Anyway it seems Pixel 7 might be a good replacement. I might have to wait a bit though for initial reviews to come in as I don't like being a guinea pig.
You mean creating more debt?
This could be related to the worker organizing happening due to poor working conditions.

"A worker at an Amazon fulfillment center in Stone Mountain passed out on the job Monday morning, less than a week after about 50 coworkers staged a walkout advocating for safer working conditions, one of the walkout’s lead organizers, Thometra Robinson, told Atlanta Civic Circle."

Fantastic observation, I hadn't noticed it until now. Thank you.

> know nothing about the workings of the legal system in China

Hello, I'm an appsec engineer working on product privacy for a large multinational company. I have a pretty accurate, battle tested, mental model about data privacy w/r/t international verticals. I have worked with our China vertical and also worked on key escrow separation models. You might even be able to figure out which company, based on the above.

It's interesting to see you make these claims about me when you know nothing about me.
To elaborate... how should Deno market their stuff?

IMO developer productivity/experience.

Deno are in an extremely privileged position that AFAIK no one has. They have control of the runtime, the cloud platform, and the framework with Fresh.

Compare Deno with say Vercel which really only have control over Next. They depend on AWS, Node, and React over which they have no control. No wonder they're investing on Svelte/SvelteKit and other projects.

Or Cloudflare who are developing their cloud infra with mediocre DX (although improving) and no framework of their own to be able to sell the complete experience.
I think web5 is web2 + web3 if nothing has changed since the last time I read about it which was a few months ago.

> NATO decides whether and how to expand their membership

You avoid the topic you find inconvenient because it completely destroys your strange notions: The nations asked NATIO to join.

There is no reason not to protect them from their aggressive neighbor!!

Why does it make any sense in your mind to let them be the victims of Russia and claim that this is somehow "correct"?

If Russia does not want NATO so close, maybe they should try a different approach towards their neighbors? Just an idea. It works for a lot of other countries who have zero fear towards a much stronger neighbor.
If you read the article, you would see that the MSR design would allow for recycling of the salt and the extraction of the valuable byproducts.

Also, this reactor is designed to fit onto a 40-foot truck for transport to remote areas and can power up to 1000 homes.
True, but for others to resolve the calendar entries you'd need to serve that file somewhere.
Which is equally a problem for a molten salt cooled reactor. If molten salt leaks or pumping stops, you're gonna get a melt down in your molten salt reactor. That is unless it's running at super low power density - like these guys: https://www.usnc.com/mmr/, in which case no cooling fluid or pumps or even natural circulation apparently are needed to keep it from melting.
I work exactly as this article describes, but 25 hours per week.

It feels like I am doing the productive 25 hours of a 37 hour work week. I log my hours pretty accurately, which I think makes it a better deal for my employer - no commuting, nothing social, and I'm picking the most productive hours for me. I've also got some freedom to switch between tasks (writing, coding, it's largely only teaching needs me to stick to appointments).

It absolutely feels like work fitting around my life (kids, gym, family visits) rather than the other way round.

I work some (even most) evenings, but only because I like to take bits of the day "off".

I agree this would be a horrible encroaching way to work for an employer who expects tHE exTRa MiLe, but those guys are horrible to work for already.
Can every state take them to court for doing it to their citizens? Maybe $85Mx50 would be enough to make them pause before ignoring user's preferences?
> There's got to be a better mechanism to force companies

I'd say the current version isn't terrible. Competition has lead to creative destruction. What would be real failure is GE sticking around with a bunch of moribund initiatives tying up skilled individuals and resources. Spinning out divisions is bad for GE shareholders (when the whole thing collapses) ... but I'm not sure it was actually bad for country, or for employees of new companies, or innovation in general.

Things sorta worked they way they are supposed to. Bad management decisions over time results in bankrupt companies and their resources being auctioned off to more efficient corporations.
The data is stratified heavily by race and school district. Limit to <white and Indian within a zip code> and the odds are probably much, much higher.

Highschool students are not randomly distributed to schools across America. There are schools that look like war zones, and places where kids actually learn. Moving the kids to different schools isn’t a solution because it’s the kids that are the problem.
Had DC UPSs where I’m from as well, they’re great for wifi and simple lighting.
Paper tickets were the only affordable alternative when we visited Paris for a week during the summer. There was a "pay-go" card that cost a bunch upfront and you could charge it with 10 or so trips at a time (and you couldn't share it either, so each family member needed a separate one).

I've used Bolt (a cheaper Uber alternative) a bunch, though taxis in general don't seem very family friendly (several cars refused to pick us up - a family of 4 - because they apparently only take 2-3 passengers in the back seats).
It's obvious. They want to make sure those people are ineligible (or a least seriously impeded) for a visa, green card, or citizenship. Very few offenses can absolutely torpedo immigration to the US as much as drug possession/offenses.

The US is a relatively 'free' country in many areas but they have a shockingly dystopian immigration and DHS, with border security that many travelers characterize as one of the most brutal in the world. Even as a US citizen with clean record I am subject to invasive (cavity) searches, cuffing/throwing in a cell, questioning, threats that I'll not be allowed in the country etc when I deal with CBP/DHS. If you have a marijuana offense as an immigrant you are utterly fucked, and those in power would like to keep it that way.
Depending where you live, a cell phone might work as a reasonable backup, along with a USB battery.
ARM MTE, Solaris SPARC ADI, CHERI, Microsoft Pluton....

Pretty much possible and already available for those listed above, with Solaris having a decade of experience in production.
>this is more complicated than it sounds. "non violent offenders" is a myth because many offenders have their charges reduced during plea bargaining process.

something like 80-90% of ALL cases at the federal level end in plea bargains, mostly for practical reasons because the legal system literally doesn't have the capacity to handle all the charges that would be brought forward. pretending it's unique to simple marijuana procession is fearmongering

>Letting people out of prison is not a simple undo function there are dangerous side effects as experienced in California

the US has 25% of the world's prison population and 5% of the world's population, the ONLY worthwhile moral consideration is the mass release of US prisoners. stuff like "think of the side effects" just perpetuates the stays quo via perpetual "considerations"
Only mentions something about making them smaller, not sure how that would solve the core (pun intended) issues.
Well they still might build it I imagine. Back in the 1960s BYU had a working nuclear reactor right on campus which produced a few watts of energy. The underground facility was standing at least as recently as the early 1990s.
That's not true. First, this is not a federal act. An act is an individual law. A federal act is a federal law. This, however, comes through the use of the President's constitutional pardon power, which is only allowed for offenses against the United States. Due to the creation of The District of Columbia, offenses against that code are also included in the President's pardon power.

This absolutely does not apply to any state.
Not sure it's a justified reduction in exclusion zone. Yes they use natural circulation to get rid of decay heat if they lose power to run the pumps. BUT - they can't tolerate multiple reactors failing at once, they can't tolerate more than a few control rod withdrawals, and they can't tolerate clogging of the flow channels - Which to me, seem like reasonable accidents. The reduction in exclusion zone for NuScale is not really justified. If they get a reduction, you can expect the big ass reactors to also get a reduction...
Not sure how that helps if it melts through the floor, the truck, and then the ground when you turn it on. Those are nice improvements, but adding a red paint job to a wingless plane won't make it fly.

Suppose you could use some kind of ablative material, but that would mean short runtimes and constant expensive refits. Sort of like taking that wingless plane and launching it with a trebuchet. Technically makes it fly but not in any way that matters.
Infrapedia looks incredible and far more detailed. When zoomed in, Infrapedia accurately displays the ends of cables down to the street and building.
On the other hand, if you're going to actually do DIY work on your house's wiring, it would be prudent to at least have some familiarity with the NEC.

Since we're in a democracy, every election involves everyday citizens adjusting the wiring of our government. Doubly so in states that allow voter-initiated statutes and constitutional amendments via referendum.
I read it, and it would still be fine in a Twitter thread
How much would the science capabilities of a telescope like JWST be reduced if 1/3 of its SSD was repurposed for storing the latest wikipedia dump (that 1/3 number is assuming it's only English, compressed, and without images)? To me that seems like an easy cost/benefit analysis.
I'm always surprised when I meet someone who does.
None of my friends (+their family) or my family have ever used it. Nobody I hang out with will even say they have whatsapp. Maybe it's because we're "desktop people", which doesn't explain the lack of participation by someone like my wife. She uses her phone almost exclusively. shrug
Since you mention "assurances", why do you ignore this one:

https://www.armscontrol.org/factsheets/Ukraine-Nuclear-Weapo...

> 1994 Trilateral Statement

> The Massandra Accords set the stage for the ultimately successful trilateral talks. As the United States mediated between Russia and Ukraine, the three countries signed the Trilateral Statement on January 14, 1994. Ukraine committed to full disarmament, including strategic weapons, in exchange for economic support and security assurances from the United States and Russia...

> 1994 Budapest Memorandum on Security Assurances

> To solidify security commitments to Ukraine, the United States, Russia, and the United Kingdom signed the Budapest Memorandum on Security Assurances on December 5, 1994. A political agreement in accordance with the principles of the Helsinki Accords, the memorandum included security assurances against the threat or use of force against Ukraine’s territory or political independence. The countries promised to respect the sovereignty and existing borders of Ukraine.

> 2009 Joint Declaration by Russia and the United States

> Russia and the United States released a joint statement in 2009 confirming that the security assurances made in the 1994 Budapest Memorandum would still be valid after START expired in 2009.

Followed by

> 2014 Russian Annexation of Crimea

Russian aggression and lies have no limits.
> The next Apollo 13 will probably be a software problem , doesn't hurt if they can read up about it

What good would an "offline backup of Wikipedia" do in that situation?

Wikipedia is good for one thing, and one thing only: getting some cursory knowledge on a topic you're unfamiliar with. It's the tourist map to the "sum of all human knowledge." If you expect to use it for anything else, you're asking too much of it.
despite sounding sarcastically exasperated, this is a legitimate question asked sincerely:

when exactly, in the history of Modern Democracy, did the electorate start completely accepting token gestures and empty promises in place of actual, tangible progress enacted by their elected officials?
More adoption? I don't know about europe but here in the US the Apple watch is ubiquitous - perhaps more apparently than really because the square design is immediately recognizable, whereas competitors' smart watches are mostly round. For a product to sell well in the future, lots of people need to be seen using and enjoying it in the present.
It's so sad that companies are ditching smaller devices. I liked my Pixel 3 as I can perfectly use it with one hand given its convenient 5.5 size. Now that I am considering upgrading to Pixel 7, I just can't shake the feeling that I might not enjoy a 6.3 display.
Their crappy code might be generating millions of dollars in revenue while you fix it and curse their name
What are the headaches and how do they solve it? Just interested what it means in practice with different state and federal laws.
They describe three types of markup.

Seems kinda arbitrary, but a curious line of thought - I enjoyed the article. It made me imagine a new kind of hypertext, an evolution of HTML that unifies all these realms and more as a universal templating language. One can dream!

> Red markup describes how to present something. One way to spot presentational markup is that it usually doesn't make sense if you imagine changing from one media to another (if it's a print/web document, imagine translating it into an audio recording).

> Yellow markup describes the structure of the document itself. To spot structural markup, replace the content (or compare multiple documents in the same format) and see what labels are stable. You can also imagine porting the content to another format (article, book, slide show, and so on) and consider what would break.

> Blue markup describes the ontology of things that appear in the content--it names and categorizes them.

The official original US Constitution is written out on one largish page. The original text, plus footnotes, is 10 pages in https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/CDOC-110hdoc50/pdf/CDOC-.... On https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Constitution_of_the_United_St... it's, by my count, 4370 words. That's 12½ minutes of reading.

The amendments are another 15 pages, which is mostly taken up by footnotes about which states ratified them when. On https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/United_States_Bill_of_Rights and https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Additional_amendments_to_the_... we have 809 and 2698 words respectively. That's another 10 minutes of reading.

Also, most of that text is unchanged since 01789, and it hasn't changed at all since 01992, when one sentence was added. If you'd spent those 22½ minutes in 01992 you'd still be up to date. And it is in the public domain, so it is easy to obtain.

NFPA's National Electrical Code (I assume that's the one you mean) is over 1000 pages, and a new version comes out each year.
