I think it's a pretty cool design but repairability does seem like a concern -- Normally you'd take a stainless prop to a shop and they'd just weld + grind any small damage but that seems more difficult with the geometry of this propeller.
If the two halves of a mold have some helicity, I suspect it is possible to cast such a shape. After all, the water also needs to flow through the prop, so too can the halves of a mold.
a) I think many people already have some heaters sitting around somewhere.

b) If a country like Germany can't, within a couple of months, produce something as simple as resistive heaters in significant numbers, something must be seriously wrong. They consist of a cheap case, resistive wire wound into a coil, a fan, and a couple of switches (main power switch, safety switch that turns it off when it tips over). If a design takes 3 minutes to hand-assemble after the easily automatable parts (e.g. stamped sheet metal case, coil) have been made in great numbers, then a single factory with 100 workers will churn out 16000 per 8-hour day, or a million in 3 months.

c) even if Germany can't, China can. Maybe not enough for everyone but enough to make a significant dent in gas consumption, together with the ones people already have

d) everything that uses electricity is an electric heater. Worst case, heat a large pot of water on the stove.
Well we did have PearPC even before they went Intel. I used it a bit to see if I could do everything I needed before I bought a Mac.

It was horribly slow but something more optimized like Rosetta might help.

It'll be a much harder game though for sure.
> A lot of newer kitchens have wooden floors, which is insane.

What's insane about this? I grew up in a pretty basic old house with a wooden floor in the kitchen, I don't recall it being an issue in any practical sense.
Dealers can be pretty decent if you know a good one and just say no.

Or ask why they offer a warranty if the car’s so good. The answers are always amusing.
I (of course) did, and it seems like it proves my point.
By using compounding. If you net 5% profit per week, then you'll have $1.26M in a year ! Or at 1.5% net per week $1.02M in three years. If monthly, then 7% net per month for three years $1.14M.

The trick is to find something that you can buy low, sell high consistently. Obviously in the above scenarios you are reinvesting all your gains to operate with ever greater amounts of capital. It would also be prudent to pick transactions at some small fraction of your total.

BUT ... it is unlikely that you can implement the above as a passive investment and it might require to do a considerable amount of work. Oh well .... them's the breaks!
Yes, and IMO people also put too much emphasis on which country the art comes from.

While webtoons are primarily Korean at that point, Korean authors are also publishing manga in Japan and participate a lot in the anime/manga/game/illustration culture in general (same for Chinese or Taiwan artists, or from wherever they live really). The net and pervasive use of digital tools has really blended the borders, and there are many artists who happen to speak Japanese and publish in Japan, but come from different backgrounds.

It's easy to see in the game or anime community (Korean/Taiwan studios are already at a very high quality level), the last Fire Emblem for instance has a Brazilian character designer.

I also think the same thing is already happening in reverse, with Japanese artists going for the international market when their style would have more impact/better reception there.
Tell HN: At least one ChatGPT submission on nearly every page of HN
About 3,000+ to 5,000+ submissions, 30 per page, comprise HN's "live" content. That is, submissions currently accepting comments.

At present, there is at least one submission concerning "ChatGPT" on nearly every page. If there is no ChatGPT reference on a given page, then there is almost surely a submission relating to "AI", particularly "OpenAI".

Even the most popular headline stories running in the mainstream media, the ones some readers no doubt get tired of reading about, do not get that level of repetitive coverage on HN.

I express no opinion on the matter. I leave such opinions to HN commenters. These are simply observations.

> I would love to see industry averages on if pre-sale renovations make any sense at all. Considering the outright financial expenses, possible financing, potentially weeks/months of organizing contractors, dealing with overages, delaying the house sale, yada yada.

They must surely make sense, given that there are people who "flip" houses (buy a house, do a quick paint/bathrooms/kitchen renovation on it and sell it for a nice markup).
Interesting. I just asked the builder that built my house* and he said his business hasn't slowed down at all.

His primary location since I'm sure that matters a lot: suburbs north of Dallas.

* We got the land right before the boom in prices. Paid super inflated prices for materials. Finalized a mortgage before the recent rate increases. I guess overall we came out ahead?

That is a pretty hostile reply to a neutral post.

They have sought to prevent large scale economic crisis, which would dramatically impact unemployment. And they have commented while doing so that this is not the ideal way to manage things.
Nope. That's pretty much the gist of the whole shenanigan.
As a former CRO, it's not unheard of but quite uncommon to do this. Because normally it has the opposite effect.
It should have been only audited financials. But the Big 4 have failed us spectacularly in recent years.
Climate models might not be civilisation models, but climate has a very large role in the disruption of civilisation models, look at the Sumerians for evidence of climate/regional degradation and the impact that had on their civilisation. And mitigation is only one part of it, when shortages start, it's not just the climate you have to deal with, it's the humans, who are arguably far more vicious and erratic than any weather or climate.
I posted in another comment on this thread a list of papers which met these criteria for me at the time and which I learned a lot by implementing.

> it's really hard for me, as a non-expert, to assess which papers are true advancements

Its hard for me too, though I wouldn't consider myself an expert, just someone with a moderate amount of experience. Learning to discriminate important from less-important papers is another skill which takes effort to develop.
I wonder when 6.anything is going to land in Ubuntu Lunar. Perhaps they were waiting to skip 6.0 and go directly to 6.1?
>By the late 1960s, a bias in favor of the diet-heart hypothesis was strong enough that researchers with contrary results found themselves unable or unwilling to publish their results. For instance, the largest test of the diet-heart hypothesis, the Minnesota Coronary Survey, involving 9057 men and women over 4.5 years, tested a diet of 18% saturated fat against controls eating 9%, yet did not find any reduction in cardiovascular events, cardiovascular deaths, or total mortality [17]. Although the study had been funded by the NIH, the results were not published for 16 years, after the principal investigator, Ivan Frantz, had retired. Frantz is reported to have said that there was nothing wrong with the study; ‘We were just disappointed in the way it came out’ [1]. Frantz's decision not to publish his results in a timely manner resulted in these contradictory data not being considered for another 40 years [18].

This is a fundamental issue that increases in effect with the softness of a field's science. When Keys pushed his narrative DNA had only recently been discovered. Over time, biology has become more rigorous, and some of it can today be described as a field within chemistry. Metabolism is increadibly complex but our understanding of it is now more grounded in real physical processes. Eventually even psychology may see the same upgrade in rigor.

(This article did not go into any chemical discussion of saturated fat, MUFA and PUFAs but that work has been and is still being done and will play a part in undoing the policies made by NIH et al.)
> Am I missing something here?

Nope. I can produce a similar report for 60x+ my net worth. Bank account snapshots, wire in wire out. Leveraged assets, debt ignored. This is all marketing aimed at the financially illiterate.
Yes.

Agreed upon procedures is a standard non audit report done with a particular target use case in mind.

They can be very valuable or complete garbage. It depends on its design and purpose. The disclosures you quote are standard and would form part of any agreed upon procedures engagement. There is no nefariousness at play.

However, the better questions are:

1- Does this report result in meaningful assurance and if so, why
2- Why isn't here any audit report
Try LinuxMint. It's Ubuntu but without the Snaps. There is a reason it's 4 positions above Ubuntu on DistroWatch.

Loopwing turbines have been around for over a decade.

Thanks for the resources, especially the Bonhoeffer theory and the nice feedback. I do appreciate it. I can also only return the favor, being able to come to an agreement on such points is really good news and i found this quite beneficial as well. The difficulty of it (conflict in speech is just so much more easy and fun) is why i have so high hopes for technology. Because you wont just help with understanding but being more easy to understand. Which means getting more control about how you frame stuff without just trying to influence your conversation partner. I am not so optimistic about education beyond a base level though, getting a grip of framing stuff, and not just reacting immediately, is just very difficult no matter how much you meditate, at least for idiots like myself. Schmachtenberger [0] is proposing that same approach with the stuff around "rule omega", but as you can take from the close to 10 hours of videos and not making much visible progress since, you are kind of trying to build a new non-stupid human. (Not tryint to downplay that approach would be great if it worked and its a really nice idea. I might be overly cynical here).

When it comes to possible solutions, cooperative minimum is key imho. Which likely means the solution cant be aimed at gaining political influence or monetary benefits. Because people react to such attempts of influence as well. And as with every tool, there will be attempts of weaponization. Which gets us to conflict again, which makes the experience everywhere more shit. So keeping Goethe Zauberlehrling in mind is rather important.

In case anyone is wondering about the poverty point, its so people get the option to not have to react under dire pressure for once. Because thinking about stuff like this is quite simply a luxury if you have to worry about where the next meal for you and your family is going to come from. Less anxious people are more willing to cooperate.

He might not have had a choice in the matter - the passport issued by the Soviet / Russian authorities had the spelling chosen by the authority, not by the person.

Binance is the closest thing to a global, borderless bank that exists today. They exist everywhere and nowhere. Their legal entities shift based on what is needed at the moment. They have the ability to easily create tens of millions of dollars as needed based on their BNB reserves, tight relationship with Tether, their ability to launch new token projects (i.e. unregulated securities offerings), and their stablecoin BUSD. They act as an investment bank - I know a prominent crypto entrepreneur that got loaned 8 figures after a text message to help finance an acquisition.

I would say it’s quite likely they are fractional reserve but they are so absolutely huge it would take a lot more FUD than exists currently to damage them even a little. They have a lot of room to maneuver.
At least, some of Amazon's pricing is dynamic. There must be an algorithm that decides the price.

I don't know if it's still the case but we used to see used books sell in the thousands because algorithms would adjust the price automatically so it's not out of the question that it happens with regular products.

BTW, the product is sold by Keen Footwear so whatever is happening might be initiated by Keen not necessarily by Amazon. When a third party is involve, Amazon is not involved in setting the price. They just make sure they get their commision on the sale.
Sure, but once you're in space things can become easier, with high Isp engines and in situ propellant production. It's not necessarily all chemical rockets with fuel lifted from Earth.
Fantastic idea. I don't think it's reasonable to expect every individual to pay $1000 to a lawyer to review every agreement they ever sign, when they're asked to sign a 10-page document full of legalese multiple times a week for ordinary purchases.

What are you doing to your toasters? My toaster had a good 10+ year run before I ultimately gave it away because I purchased a toaster oven. This was a Target/Walmart unremarkable kit that must surely have cost <$40, most likely something around $20 because I was a broke college kid.
It amazes me how much mind share Ubuntu still has with people. A lot of the Linux community has left Ubuntu over the past 5 years, especially since the Snaps were added.

LinuxMint is a vastly better experience today because it's focused on being the best for desktop users, while Ubuntu isn't any more.
> Google was never going to get what it wanted/needed <with the CCP>

That is not at all accurate. The CCP attempted to infiltrate Google's internal systems by having spies get jobs inside of Google. The CCP also blocked all google services and then developed identical ones to compete with Google globally.

The CCP is extremely nefarious. Any government that blocks children from reading an encyclopedia should be considered to be committing a crime against humanity.
Is there any evidence that crunch actually helps?

In my experience crunch time increases productivity for a couple of weeks and is a net negative from then on. Tired, stressed, and sick/absent developers just aren't as effective. Producing poorer code, even at a faster rate, is usually a loss as well.

Any software development organization that practices it would seem to be sabotaging themselves.

That's not a status signal, it has practical non-status value. It can be fresher and taste better. You don't need to be upper or middle class to enjoy the taste of self-made butter, anyone, including the dad, can enjoy it. I'm not trying to imply that I have a higher status because I prefer the taste of artisanal butter. Just saying that out loud sounds absurd to just about anyone. What, poor/low-status people can't taste artisanal butter cultures?

Poor people in Western countries where even the poor buy supermarket produce will sometimes comment on the poor quality of modern mass market produce. You don't need to be in a different class or playing status games to taste the difference. If I look for an artisanal food, it's because it tastes better.

Edit: probably a more direct rebuttal is that the accusation is "They have an image they try to cultivate, even if only unconsciously" which means the person intends to signal who they are. Saying something is a "sign of poverty" doesn't mean anyone is cultivating an image or playing status games. It's not a game or a message to be visibly poor.

There are a few reasons some companies prefer buybacks over dividends.

Probably the smallest reason is that buybacks can save investors money on their taxes.

A much bigger reason is that buybacks are viewed as one time events. When a company starts paying a dividend investors often expect that dividend to be paid regularly. If the company chooses to stop paying a dividend or decreases the dividend the share price drops.

Finally, there is executive compensation. Let's say my compensation package let's me buy shares at $100 each. If the share price is currently $110 and the company does a $10 dividend then the share price goes to $100 and my options are worthless. If the company does a stock buyback then the share price goes up and my options are worth more. As CEO which do you push for?
Dark mode is good for my relationship when I have to work late – and not fill the entire bedroom with bright light.
That’s a relatively minor one compared to what I’ve heard tell of - imagine buying a new car to only realize they gave you one that didn’t match VINs with all your paperwork - because they had two on the lot and you don’t notice u til you go to sel it years later.
How about a third option: don't buy a stupid car. Take public transit or your bike. Much better than ICE or EV.

I'm surprised they use flip chip tech in something this expensive. Flip chips tend to be sensitive to light and this is after all a laser module. Raspberry pi had lots of issues with photosensitivity in its flip chip wifi controller. Use flash nearby and it would reset.

If it were me I'd just spend the 10c for the plastic..

Also really surprised the laser colors are only 4.5nm apart!

The size is amazing by the way.. I worked with fiber tech in the late 90s and a 16-colour DWDM multiplexer was the size of a full rack!
How much risk are you willing to take?

High risk appetite: You might see massive returns, but will most likely lose a lot (e.g. gambling, speculative stocks).

Low risk appetite: Achieve much smaller returns, but the chance of any loss is much lower (e.g. blue chip stocks, bonds).

Maybe you're asking how to earn massive returns with minimal risk? If I knew, I wouldn't tell you. I'd be busy taking advantage of the opportunity. If a stranger on the internet wanted to share their secret on how to make 10x your money in 3 years, it's almost certainly a scam.

Sorry, there are no easy answers.

Turbopack will have plugins – we're just not there yet. But the plan is to absolutely support them. The great thing about open source is there isn't really "rug pulling". If you aren't satisfied with Next.js, you can use another tool, like SvelteKit, and that's okay.

Vercel's goal is to make it easy to run any of these frameworks. If you prefer an alternative to Next.js and want to switch, from Vercel's platform perspective, that's fine. I'd certainly love to make Next.js better in that instance, but it's not trying to lock you into the box. There's too many good options for frontend frameworks today to do that. And if you're dissatisfied with Vercel, you can also always self-host Next.js.

> When did we forget that personal preference an entirely sufficient reason to make a personal choice?

I don't think anyone is forcing anyone to do anything. If you want to smoke cigarettes, you have the license to do so. But that doesn't mean there aren't objective reasons no to do so.

Generally speaking, preferences aren't beyond scrutiny or axiomatic, or outside rational consideration. If a preference is meaningfully harmful (dark mode probably does not qualify), then in a rational person it tends to shift accordingly once the harmfulness is understood. Stubborn irrational preferences (like those that involve addiction) may require some effort or intervention to recondition them to conform with our objective good. At the very least, we ought to avoid indulging them.
