I'm also concerned with how this feature will be made available in countries and not in mountains ranges.
Like 'France'

I'm near the Alps, and enforcing a strict geofencing wouldn't make sense in here.

Will the iphone just check your GPS position to enable this functionality or not ? Or will it use the country of your SIM ?

Areas with poor coverage in 'France' are mostly mountains. And mountains are (unenforced and hardly marked) border regions.
On some hikes in the Alps, you're technically walking in and out of France and Italy.
Mt Blanc is a conflicted border between both, and Mt Chenaillet, a popular destination for rock fans, is nearly on the border, for example.
And as the border doesn't exist, you can also just technically spend a day in any other country without any preparation !

The same can be seen in the mountains between France and Spain.
And nearly any mountainous area in the world, I believe.

So I'm just worry that this service will be 'available in France', but won't work when you are on the 5m of the track that are ackchyually in Italy according to legal maps, even if French rescue would be allowed to come to you if you call them.

It will feel weird and confusing when this functionality will be reliable only on some mountains, or even mountain sides, but not others, despite the fact they're in the same range.
As with the "please" keyword in Intercal, the compiler would have to enforce its use but not over-use.
if it makes you feel any better, I agree it's pretty overplayed and lazy of a joke.

Good to hear.
While I agree that "leave" is probably the best answer in such cases, I also observe that this advice does not appear anywhere in the article.
We may have different definitions of the word "joke" :P
Spotty support for C++17/C++20 is very annoying. Maybe if you stick to one platform and one language edition on one compiler you'll have a nice and stable C++ experience, but that's no different from Javascript. We adopt new things because we want better things, having some of those things fail or quickly deprecate is a risk that comes with that territory.

BTW just a snarky aside, but I've never seen any of the Javascript frameworks make as bad design decisions as the C++11/C++14 standards committees have. At least when you use a one-day-fly JS framework you'll use something that was actually designed with a grain of intelligence.
> All trading parties (and the individuals that make them up) do NOT trust each other without shared history.

Really? When you're paying at the supermarket, you have no trust that the cashier won't just run away with your cash? When you pay someone in the market, you don't trust that they will give you your bags after counting the cash?

I've seen this with lots of crypto enthusiasts, where they seem to live in a parallel dimension where people only comply with basic social norms under fear of loss or violence. The reality is of course the opposite: most people trust random merchants (especially in person) not to screw them over much more than they trust the police to get their money back if they are screwed over.
I think probably the main thing is that environment variables are a distinct and well-defined; they don't have to interact with anything else syntactically. This makes them nice to use, say, to pass secret API keys to your program in a way which is less likely to leak (apart from the "log all env variables" problem discussed in the post).

Consider say, aws-cli. If I have to pass the API key as an argument, I have to C&P it into every command I write, or write a shell wrapper, thus storing the key on a file, which could accidentally get checked in or leak in some other way. Same with a configuration file. But if I just once per shell session put the API key into an environment variable, then it's only stored in memory; virtually zero chance it will make it into a git tree, and not terribly inconvenient.

Similar if you need to pass an API key to the app running in a docker container. You don't want to rely on your docker container image itself being secret; and it's often very convenient to keep your Dockerfile in a git tree, so you don't want to explicitly set the command in the dockerfile to include your key. And do you really want to keep your config file on the data volume? Or create a special separate volume just for the configuration file (when in fact, you want the vast majority of configuration to be stored in your docker image)?

Much easier to just tell the system running your container, "When you start this container, set this environment variable to this secret value." Then the system knows to treat that environment variable with discretion.

The alternate would be to tell the system running your container, "Add this secret rune to the command line before running", or "Add this secret config file". Environment variables are much easier to reason about.
Do your point is that Apple and those grifters are equally reputable?

It’s not as clear cut as you make out. There are some specific verbs that should always take the ‘s’ in British English – for example, analyse (in American English, analyze). And then there are verbs that even in American English should always take the ‘s’, like revise and exercise.
I really think you shouldn't take the article, its conclusions and recommendations too serious.

Hello Hackernews!

My name is Tobias and I’m excited to introduce my new Notion template: "The Software Development Health Check".

This template is a systematic approach to analyzing and improving your team's happiness, and mental health, as well as reduce stress levels.

> Why I came up with it

As a developer with 10+ years of experience, I have worked with all kinds of project managers, product owners, designers, business experts and of course other developers. While on that journey, I’ve always tried to see what works well for the dev teams and what does not. I have also done sparring and coaching for other developers and have noted what they struggle most with in their environments and with their colleagues.

All of this information, I tried to compile in this template. I have also “beta-tested” the template with other lead and senior developers to see what they had to add to my list and questions to ask. The result is a really solid template to find issues within your team and how to improve them.

In the end, I wanted to create a template, that helps team leads, project managers and lead devs to create a more fun working environment.

> Here's what you'll find inside

- A structured way to approach your teams current state and what questions to ask
- Multiple tests you can take, to find out what’s going right, what could be improved and what you can add to your process
- Suggestions on what to do to get the team to a better place

I built this template with my experience of 10+ years in large development teams. Added to that are dozens of discussions I had with other lead or senior developers to include their viewpoint as well.

As I continue to improve the template over time, I will release new free templates that you can add to this base template to add even more functionality. Stay up to date by following me either on Twitter [1] or on Gumroad [2]. I’ll message you when I have new freebies!

I would love to hear your feedback on it!

Thank you

I'm waiting for a "Show HN" announcing Firegoose.
If you think attacking the homes of billionaires is easy or novel, I suggest that perhaps you have not considered that you are not the first person with that idea.

Private homes of the ultra wealthy and powerful are usually protected in non-obvious ways that most houses on most streets are not, to put it mildly. It turns out that machine guns are legal for private citizens (such as a 24/7 armed private security team), even in California, if you are wealthy and connected enough.
That looks good.

It would be great if you could align it with the JLPT. Including the listening, which I think is the hardest.

I'm useless at learning languages, basically foreign language dyslexic. I've found targeting the tests & applying for then in advance was the only thing that allowed me to progress.

They're a huge motivator. Not just the looming deadline effect, but also passing makes you feel good, as it's a genuine asset as much as it is proof of progress.
Sure. Which brings us back to the problem: NYC lacks the infrastructure to efficiently collect the trash and turn it into biofuel, because all the space is taken by cars. It's a bad balance of priorities between fuel production and fuel consumption.
Sure, the issue is that every time a political partisan or politically partisan organization gets banned from a service, they and their followers will always believe it's because of the party they're a member of, and not because they were being an asshole. It acts as cover to engage in any kind of behavior at all, as long as you're a partisan. That isn't what those protections were meant for.

Rules are enforced by imperfect detectors of infractions because there is no such thing as a perfect detector. No matter how careful a review process is, failures will always happen. Innocent people are convicted by real courts through decades of appeals in spite of all the due process. You will always be able to find some instances where a member of party A does exactly the same thing as a member of party B, but only one of them gets punished. Does this mean we should try the best we can and accept that we will fail a non-zero number of times, or should we never have rules instead because that's the only possible way to be fair?

I'm going to be perfectly honest here. I don't follow Twitter at all. I've never had an account. I haven't read an article from the NY Post that I can remember in probably 20 years. I don't actually care about this stuff and think it's silly internet drama that should not be dominating national headlines. So it's entirely possible Twitter really was biased here. I don't know. Organizations are not never in the wrong. When black people were banned from every lunch counter in 15 states, it wasn't an innocent mistake by organizations trying their best to exercise their right to freedom of association. When communists were purged from Hollywood, they were definitely targeted because of their party, not because they'd explicitly done anything.

But without stooping to the specifics of whether one single incident was right or wrong, I would like to agree that it is okay for a service like Twitter to have terms of service and remove content and block accounts that breech those terms. Legally, at least right now, they are not treated as a common carrier, but if that ever changes, one of those terms of service can't be "no Republicans," but that also doesn't mean no Republicans can ever be banned. If you think you can prove disparate impact in a court of law, have at it, but just be aware that you're in the ample company of every political partisan ever who believed themselves to be some unjustly persecuted minority being suppressed for just telling the truth. The fact that some small number really were doesn't do much to impact the overall probability distribution of holding that belief.

>The problem is, if they write such bullshit about topics that I do understand, how can I trust their reporting on topics that I do not?

Funny how this is true for basically all of science and yet so many popsci authors get away with it, because the vast majority of the audience will not be experts in the field. If you want the true story you'll always have to read the original paper (though sometimes even Nature lets bs slip through) and absolutely ignore the common media articles about it. Complaining that articles for the masses are not adequate recitations of real research is like complaining that water is wet. It's kind of the whole deal. This stuff is supposed to sound intriguing and generate clicks, not push the research itself ahead or inform real experts.

I think it would really depends on what game you're playing. From what I gathered from the article it's not really meant to replace a standard deck of cards but more aimed towards board games. People that are serious about board gaming will usually have 1 session/week , sometimes but rarely more, often less. So I'm sure on average each card will get more than 7 refreshes/week but it will probably be in the acceptable range.
Simply fascinating! Would be immensely cool to be able to export to SVG.
The dilutions seem unrealistic, or at least physiologically irrelevant. This is how they get there:

> A professional dishwasher completes 1 or 2 wash and rinse cycles using 3.5 L of water per cycle. The detergent and rinse aid are automatically dispensed into the water at a concentration of 1.5 to 4 mL/L and 0.1 to 0.5 mL/L, respectively. At these concentrations, the residual dilution factor after rinse ranges from 1:250 to 1:667 for detergents and 1:2,000 to 1:10,000 for rinse aids.

So 1:10,000 is a plausible dilution of rinse aid in the rinse water. Unless people are drinking the rinse water (please don't), it's not a dilution that will ever be seen by the body.

Rather, what the body will see is however much residue is left on a mug diluted in whatever the volume of the mug is.

They do sort of address this:

> To study the chemicals in the residue remaining on the surface of dishware after washing, 10 porcelain cups (190 mL size) were subjected to 1 full washing and drying cycle in professional (Winterhalter, GS501, Germany) and household (AEG, GS60AV, Poland) dishwashers and then 1 mL of culture medium was added into them. After shaking and waiting for 5 minutes, the culture medium was collected from the cups, filter-sterilized, and added to the monolayer and differentiated cell cultures directly or in 1:2, 1:5, and 1:10 dilutions.

Except that they wash all the residues off in just 1 ml of medium. They then dilute that 1 ml onto cells:

> The LDH cytotoxicity assay on monolayer Caco-2 cells showed that the toxicity exerted by the dried rinse aid residue on the cups washed in a professional dishwasher still takes place even at a 1:10 dilution (see Fig E9, A). TEER and PF were also measured in differentiated Caco-2 cells, and parallel results were observed when exposed to rinse aid. High concentrations (1:2 and 1:5 dilutions) of the residue severely impaired the epithelial barrier function as measured by the decreased TEER values. In the 1:10 dilution, nearly the same TEER values were observed compared with controls.

So this isn't great, but it also doesn't seem like a big deal. You could rinse a cup in 10 ml of water, gargle with it, and be fine.
I still follow Quanta Magazine, but I kind of moved from it to SciTechDaily, which while still imperfect, generally has a direct link to the scientific article for which, if they have done their work correctly, is easier to follow after the blog article about it.

The positive side effect is that I am reading scientific articles more often since I'm doing this.

I saw that wormhole article and something in it triggered the bs detector. Those discoveries are often made by a big team in a big lab, the article only named one researcher.

IMHO Quanta is far from the most respectable source of science news, since their articles tend to be very sensationalist, but in this case Quanta is not to blame, as the article it was published in Nature, but publications in big magazines are becoming more and more political, and less about real science.
You get rats and foxes.
I have a similar tale to tell. Ever since I've taken activated charcoal regularly, I have felt considerable improvement in my digestion and overall well-being. I feel happier, even. The charcoal is "sourced from non-GMO coconuts" which I don't necessarily believe but I take it as a sign that it's a higher quality product instead of repackaged industrial waste (like a lot of the market probably is).

I take 1000mg of activated charcoal per day and feel better. It is paradoxical, because all charcoal does is absorb. It makes me think that everything we put into our bodies nowadays is poison. And if all charcoal does is absorb, maybe most foods are a net negative. My interest in fasting has piqued as a result.

I think we are entering an era of rampant industrialization wherein the products (food, soaps, cookware coatings, packaging materials, etc.) are not necessarily the best products on the market, but simply cost effective enough to put on the shelves--meaning if waste can get on the shelf through clever marketing and engineering then it will.
I'd give the M1 air more credit - I moved from a 2019 16" Pro to the Air and performance was nearly identical except for long running tasks (> 10 minutes.) So for mobile app builds, it was blazing fast. And in the meantime the intel machine was blaring fans after the first 30 seconds while the Air barely got warm.And then the real kicker was watching the battery on the intel machine visibly dropping a few percentage points, while the air sits at the same level the whole time.

I've since moved to the M2 air, and it is noticeably faster than M1, but it isn't the huge leap from last gen intel that the M1 was. But the hardware itself feels way better.

It still doesn’t answer the question.

Android supposedly has great PWA support obviating the need to write native apps yet no one has ever stepped up to the challenge of finding popular examples where a company was forced to write an app for iOS . But decided that a PWA was good enough for Android.

And despite the whining about fees, most (80% it came out during the Epic trial) App Store revenue is from games. And most other companies are either in the B2B space where the customers sign contracts outside of the App Store,
B2C companies that are advertising supported, sell physical goods and services that are not effected by the policy (Uber, Amazon, etc) or have the option to bypass the App Store in app purchases like Netflix and Spotify.

Tell me whwne I am wrong:

You don't lay down square miles of landmines in a conflict against insurents, i.e. Taliban. You only do area denial against real militaties.

In a conflict between any real militaties, like the recent Russia vs Ukraine, no-one is wasting their time making IEDs.
