Google's hardware support IME is a shit show.

Of course it's related to the format. Many formats, like PNG and Gemtext, are inherently self-contained, while other formats, like HTML and SVG, are not.

Annoyingly, EPUB isn't inherently self-contained [1], but external access is explicitly optional [2], and it does make self-containment easier, because you can reuse resources across multiple pages, whereas HTML requires you to either duplicate the resources across multiple pages, or you have to build your thing as a single massive HTML page.

The main argument against it is that it increases fuel consumption. Plowing your cargo area through the air sideways is just idiotic. There is some crazy public belief that it is more fuel efficient because the public doesn’t understand physics. These things keep getting getting publicity because even Hacker News folks don’t get it.

Long high aspect ratio wings and streamlined body are how you get fuel efficiency.

The fuel burn of a B2 is far higher pound for pound than a 737.

This idea gets even more ridiculous when you consider the cargo area is a pressure vessel. There is a reason the body is isomorphic with a welding tank.

Edit: I suppose I wouldn’t care about this, but the Biden Administration plowed climate money into a blended wing military concept, which 1 day with any CFD software shows is stupid.

Cloud hardware lasts longer than you think. There's a widespread misconception that it gets cycled out constantly, but the truth is, new hardware almost always supplements, rather than replaces, the old stuff. When I was at AWS we occasionally had to code workarounds for very old SKUs.

I agree with your general sentiment, but I think this timeline doesn't necessarily extrapolate well for the United States. The average age of a vehicle on the road in the US is about 12 years - aftermarket suppliers as well as oil/gas companies have a very strong incentive to plan that far ahead in order to keep up with the demand. Especially given that the quantity of gas vehicles on the road will be, as you say, such a large percentage of the market.

Oh no, this isn't the "virtue signaling" argument again, is it? I like to call this the Joker Argument: "Underneath you're no different than me, Batman!". It's a great argument because you can use it in any situation against any opponent, because it is contentless. And the effect is to attack your opponent's character and claim that they don't really mean what they are saying, which justifies your own selfish motivations while trying to paint the other person as a hypocrite. But it's just another ad hominem attack. And it's obviously false too: you can't know what another person's motivations are, and to say that you do is putting words in someone else's mouth. In that sense it's a form of straw man attack too as you are setting up an imaginary version of the other person to knock down. If you are using an argument like this, it's a clear sign that you don't have any real argument left to make. It's an act of desperation.

It’s not. The point is that there’s an incentive among those who control capital to prevent most people from being financially secure. It’s why (for example) the tipped minimum wage exists, and why wage theft is rarely (if ever) prosecuted or covered in the news even though the amount of money stolen is orders of magnitude larger than the amount shoplifted.

>Trustless distributed consensus is expensive...

Consensus is actually very very cheap if its not done with PoW or similar consensus "tech".
Distribution isn't cheap because obviously 2 identical servers cost twice as much as one. But this comparison isn't actually applicable to real world use. A centralized system that wants to have high uptime and reliability does need multiple server too. Most centralized system do not reach the kind of reliability "blockchains" can have because from a cost-benefit point of view it just does not make sense. 99.999% uptime or about 5.5 minutes downtime per year is very expensive and very few public system come anywhere close to this.

>...there's a tradeoff where the cheaper you make it the easier it becomes to attack

That is actually a pseudo-math-security coming form the early days of Bitcoin.
Yes, if you double the number of nodes the system is arguably more secure (if the nodes are actually operated by different entities) and it costs twice as much to run BUT there is no point to endlessly increase the number of nodes. Less nodes but strategically placed around the world operated by different entities is way way more efficient and cost way less than the blind "more is better" approach.

Some quick back-of-the-envelope calculation:

1 node hardware + energy and maintenance cost per year $100k USD.
50 such severs distributed all over the world.

This system would therefore cost about 5 million per year.
Sounds like a lot but assume there are 1 million transactions per day that would mean 1 Tx cost only $0.0137.
Obviously more Tx/d would reduce the price per Tx because operation cost cost does not grow at the same rate.

Give $0.0137 USD to the operators for each Tx sound like a good idea but most system also give the operators the power to change that price, which is comically stupid.

The reason Tx fees on some blockchains are order of magnitudes higher, is because of bad design, completely pointless levels of redundancy, and most importantly because the operators do make huge profits.

Its only logical that they would double the fee if that reduced the number of Tx by less than 50%. They dont care if you cant use the system anymore because the fees are too high for you they only care about the sum of all fees.

Imagine HN but every comment would cost money and the operator would want to make the maximum profit possible.
You could plot the average number of comment at a given cost and find the price that leads to the maximum profit.
One thing is for sure, comments would not be cheap.

Maddeningly, it doesn't even apply to all Latin -us nouns. For instance, the plural of apparatus should be apparatūs if we're applying the Latin rules. Apparati, as it might seem, makes no sense! So even when the pattern match correctly identifies the language, it can be misleading.

> Want to buy and hold a company but think it's a little too expensive right now? Sell a put, and make risk-free return while you wait.

This is not risk free:)

In your scenario you can either buy the stock at your entry price, call it $100

If you sell a put with a strike of $100 then you do get paid a premium, say $1, for that but if the stock closes at say $80 then you have locked in a loss, there is no risk free return happening in this scenario.

You can try and trade your way out of this but if the stock starts to move against you it will cost you more than you got paid to buy back the put.

There is nothing risk free going on here:)

> You implied lots of people supported it with this very statement: "was certainly on the mind of all the people who voted against the Republican party this election".

Ah. It was already clear that you weren’t arguing in good faith, but this attempt at twisting my words seals it. At the end of the day, it’s clear from the results of the election that American women and citizens in general have rejected these abortion bans, “limits” and restrictions on their personal freedoms. That is made especially clear in the states that had specific referendums on anti-abortion amendments like Kentucky where they failed overwhelmingly.

Americans do not want Republicans placing restrictions on abortion, no matter what legally irrelevant European countries do or have done. I will not be replying further, have a good day.

I take it from your username that this post is intended to trigger trolls, so I thought I'd respond...

Of course, the answer is, you have no "purpose", or you can have any "purpose" you choose.

Since "purpose" is a completely fictional concept, in the exact same way as finance. You take all the people away, there is no "purpose" to the universe.

Gravity, electromagentism, they're totally happy chugging along with no humans in sight.

But "purpose" evaporates as soon as you get rid of all the monkeys.

This "increase in happiness" you're talking about is just how monkeys think of themselves.

So, you can dive into the rabbit hole of that deep and dark world between your ears, or, you can face reality. OK, who's really going to do that? Not too many people, that's for sure.

I mean come on, you're awesome at Mario Cart right? Who wants to give the major successes in their lives only to face the fact that all of that stuff is bullshit?

So, slink off into the recesses of your neurotic primate consciousness and forget all about ever hearing about this thing called the "real world".

Just ask yourself, who's better off: someone who wrote a 900 page tome on human history, or someone who just wrote a "popular" novel?

Reality is not for the weak... There is no "purpose" except what you invent for yourself...
Landfills take up space which in some areas is at a premium. Also, as they contain a lot of organic matter, they spew methane. And as they also contain a lot of nasty things like batteries, they leach all sorts of toxic plumes.

Finally, though sequestering carbon by dumping it into a landfill sounds like a good idea, in reality plastic bottles themselves often contain nasty compounds (like various plasticizers) that themselves leach out if the landfill is perfused with water.

They are a necessary evil, but too much stuff ends up in them.

I've grown increasingly skeptical of carbon removal. It strikes me as incredibly inefficient; there are much easier and cheaper gains to be made by no longer removing carbon from the ground in the first place.

Further: The Carbon Removed website claims that carbon is "permanently" removed from the atmosphere, and yet lists some of the carbon removal sources as "reforestation." This doesn't add up. Forests are part of the carbon cycle, and not a way to "permanently remove" carbon from the atmosphere.

Overall, I very much doubt that our society will do enough to stop climate change from drastically changing our planet. I wish that I saw initiatives like this as a source of hope, but don't see much, if any evidence to support such hope.

Far be it for me to criticize solo startup products—any achievement in this space is immense!

But in general…something that routinely irks me is the lack of truly outstanding design/typography in a lot of "start a website/blog/whatever in 5 minutes" stuff I see pop up. At least this isn't using some crappy monospaced font (that trend is so cringe), but…just a basic Tailwind theme isn't all that appealing IMHO. I think any indie project to help folks get a website online should offer something truly exciting/quirky/artistic on the design side so it's not just a clone of bland corporate media.

All that aside, congrats on the launch and I hope it's the start of good things to come!
