For me, it's a conflation of goals:

1. I'm a formerly reckless guy in my mid-30's, and I've wanted to try it for about a decade or so, so it seems like a challenging adventure.

2. My hobbies and interests seem to constantly preoccupy with survival and understanding how the world works. I did a stint WWOOFing, and found it extremely enriching.

3. Suburbia and urban living really rub me the wrong way. I like to fix and work with things more than "trust experts". I was very fortunate to marry someone who thinks the same way.

4. In a political sense (i.e., "people power"), I anticipate that if this goes well I can build a small town someday. My wife jokes it as a "tech commune", but I'm still hammering out details on what it'd take.

I guess it's my own "mid-life crisis", where I realize that I'm significantly better at understanding and fixing everything than winning friends and influencing people.

Edit: I keep forgetting that formatting thing where 2 line breaks is a paragraph break on HN.
Sure, but the argument FDR was putting was that he was doing it for the 'ethical' business owners who were supposedly forced to keep employing child labour because others were still using it. No. The business owners could have and should have stopped doing what they saw as unethical by themselves.

(I'm not arguing against anti-child labour laws here; I'm arguing against this reported argument for their introduction by FDR. And, to be fair, it's only the reported argument here that I'm responding to; it might not be a faithful representation of what FDR actually said.)
Two tangential thoughts:

- Try a gravel bike, which gives you a very road bike like feel, but isn't restricted to paved roads. I use mine to do 95% of the off-road stuff I used to do with my MTB, plus a lot of road.

- I've used my road bike on a smart trainer with Rouvy, Zwift and Wahoo SYSTM lately, and it's by far better than the typical gym bike. I switch between these apps, as they all have their individual strengths and weaknesses. That said, if you already own a road bike, a smart trainer might be better for giving stationary cycling a try. Smaller investment, smaller footprint when not in use.
Spreadsheets became more capable (larger screens, better formatting options) so now the target audience for a small scale database is just using that instead.
It's just polystyrene. The graphite is a marketing term that doesn't have much to do with the material properties.
That mindset only really applies to the weird enthusiast OS's like arch & gentoo, where the need to recompile half your stuff after an upgrade is almost the point. Everything else from my experience has been pretty good at maintaining compatibility
> Indigenous peoples of mesoamerica

OK, but Pine Ridge is in North America. There could have been enough isolation in pre-Columbian times for north American indigenous to evolve a different alcohol response from mesoamericans.

Like I said: I am not an expert, and I have no idea whether this hypothesis is true or not. I'm just not aware of any facts that would rule it out.
The intro talks about 9-figure deals, which seems a bit higher than an acquihire to me. 7-8 figures sure.
Jobs, having been forced out of Apple, was leading NeXT at the time, and Apple was a failing hardware company. Software, driven by Apple’s founder was threatening to take Apple’s market. I don’t know how you can say this wasn’t potentially disruptive.

Post Jobs’ death they bought a black celebrity-driven entertainment company. This was absolutely a brand threat as Apple was now associated with Tim Cook, who is perhaps many amazing things but they do not include cool.

Fast forward a decade and Microsoft recognized the game that was being played, which is that a set of six murky quasi-monopolies attempt to acquire diverse revenue streams and not lose information sources or access to their markets. While LinkedIn or Github may not have been direct threats to any of Microsoft’s existing businesses, if someone else got ahold of them Microsoft would have zero social footprint, which would be a big problem for them, having essentially missed out on search as well.
> mostly feature complete

I just played around with it today again and I immediately ran into like 5 bugs with font matching until I found out that there's not even an implementation for font matching other than "every property has to match 100%" (and if not, it falls back to an emoji font which is another bug), so there's not even the basic CSS font matching algorithm implemented (and the state of the fallback algorithm might be even worse then, as unlike the nicely documented CSS font matching algorithm, the latter is the undocumented hard part).
I find LiDAR scanning through canopies super fascinating, but I ended up going down a different rabbit hole while reading this. I found the petition linked below after a cursory look into the doctor of archeology mentioned within this article. I wonder how this work fits into the aspirations mentioned within it.

To me that petition brought up thoughts about how one might manage projects like this with respect to local population, and if/how efforts like this can aspire to maximize positive impacts for local populations, relating to economic mobility. It also brought up concerns about the worst parts of colonialism/neo-colonialism, namely the looting and suppression of local populations for the economic interests of foreign or state related interests. I wonder how the archeologist in question changed his methodologies (if at all) in response to the petition.

It's hard for some people with kids to wrap their minds around those of us who reject the lifestyle. I've overheard a few parent co-workers of mine in the past label being child-free as "selfish."

I can't think of one compelling reason to have a child. All the reasons parent friends list off are so unappealing or selfish in their own way, I have to try and not laugh at the irony and lack of self-awareness.
> people who have to work every hour just to afford the essentials of life

Yeah, this isn't true at all. 40 hours per week, with strong governmental protections to compensate for more than this.

Most people clock out and go home to watch television or scroll social media. The statistics don't lie[1][2].

This meme that the "poor, downtrodden masses" are just too overworked to do anything productive with their free time has been disproven time and time again. Human beings are dopamine response state machines living in a Skinner Box. We have plenty of free time, but we consistently make poor decisions with regard to how to use it.

I'd believe that 60-70% of HN works at a glorified ad agency. Not that the whole industry does.
It's sometimes surprising that the simpler the solution the more effective.

Cloud based can be very convoluted as a solution as it has to solve all the corner cases. And then you have to worry if the cloud provider will drop your data or let you export it easily for backup -- which they may or may not let you do easily.
GPU energy gives you an order of magnitude estimate using consumer hardware. These numbers are well publicized and hard to manipulate. From there you can offer a fudge factor (eg ASICs are X% more efficient) and there you go. Alternatively, you could find some posted stats on ASIC hardware, that should get you to a more robust number, but relies upon using what I consider to be more dodgy sources (someone selling ASICs or someone trying to claim higher/lower energy usage)

Mac CPU upgrades were a big market, though. In the 68K era you had things like Daystar cards and the Radius Rocket, and Apple themselves made a PPC 601 card. Sonnet even made them for allegedly unupgradeable machines, like the 7200 G3 upgrade that took over a PCI slot. The extension shunted everything to the CPU on the card and disabled the 601 soldered to the board.
Assuming my understanding is correct - that your documentation of travels in video and print form is what brings you the revenues that would be taxed - aren't you committing visa fraud? Usually a tourist visa forbids any work or revenue generating activity (of course there are exceptions such as the UAE, but that's generally the rule).
MORE EDITS: There are quite a few other differences vs attention that look significant. Preliminary and hand-wavy: Like other capsule-routing networks, this one gives us credit assignments that tell us how much each capsule (token embedding) in the output sequence depends on each capsule (token embedding)in the input sequence. Unlike other capsule-routing networks, this one seems to scale up really well, even though V has n x m x d elements, vs. n x d in attention.
It's pretty weird how they were able to not do this so far. Think about it: company presents shop front, sells you goods, handles the payment and instructs some nebulous third party to ship goods (or sometimes they ship them from their central warehouse). Goods arrive, or not, and quite frequently are either broken or in some other way deficient, not the article advertised or they don't arrive at all.

And then ... poof legal magic ... the company that presented the shop front and sold you the goods, handled the payment and probably instructed the nebulous third party says they have nothing to do with the whole matter and the nebulous third party - assuming they exist in the first place - disappears only to reappear a day or so later under a different name.

Either the company (Amazon, Ebay, Etsy and many others) should accept responsibility for any merchandise where they handle the transaction or they should get out of the loop and allow you to transact with the third party directly, so Amazon would only serve as the means of discovery.

Everyone I have talked to that remembers the movie as well as reviews I have seen think it is about genetic engineering. The only thing the movie actually shows is genetic selection.

> OS/2 1.x was pretty much pointless anyway

It was the base for LAN Manager, IBM/Microsoft’s answer to Netware. Never anywhere near as popular as Netware, but some people used it.

OS/2 1.x Extended Edition also had some mainframe integration bits (Communications Manager). Useful stuff if you needed to talk to an IBM mainframe.
I've been using it daily since I got it, which was just a couple weeks ago. So I'm very much still in the honeymoon period and shouldn't comment on whether it's worth it in the long view. But in the short view I have been entirely satisfied with the pricing and product. I did renting which is available in my country for the Bike and Bike+ (I chose Bike, and in retrospect don't regret it) and plan to convert to a purchase if I'm still using it in six+ months. I probably wouldn't have gone through with it if the option to rent wasn't there. Even the one month free trial that is offered with the purchase option isn't good enough to reassure me I won't use it for e.g. 40 days then drop it and be out $2000. But with renting I pay ~$100/month and can drop it whenever I notice it's been a month without using it.

In realm of real hardware security modules this is actually simple, at least in theory. (I worked as a security officer for credit card payment company and we had real HSM boxes worth small fortune each). What you do is you initialise the hardware device with same cryptographic material. You can make as many clones as you want, securely. In practice it is a huge headache but it is due to amount of procedures and paperwork you need to do.

Now, I am not an expert on Yubikeys and the protocols used by these tokens, but I know they have protection against reply attacks meaning they keep the sequence number that is incremented for each challenge/response. Pretty sure it could be made to support multiple keys. It would be really nice if I was able to initialise multiple yubikeys and use them interchange-ably (and keep two in safe deposit box just in case).
What exactly is the difference between idling, daydreaming, meditating, musing or sitting on sofa with eyes shut and profound boredom?

"In addition, marketplaces would have to disclose a business seller’s full name, address, phone number, and email address, only allowing for some limited protections for home-based businesses."

Commercial eBay seller here.

Honestly, it's been damn near impossible to scam someone via eBay (as a seller, at least) since around 2008, when they introduced mandatory PayPal payments by default. Managed Payments (rolled out during the pandemic) makes it even harder to scam as a seller.

There's still the perceptions that hang around from the early days, but buyer protections and reversible payment methods controlled by eBay themselves have successfully scared away the scammers. The only fraud you still get is friendly fraud from buyers.

When I worked at Xbox I was amazed to see the 360 game boot code had multiple title ID checks in it. For some titles it would report things differently, for others it would sleep a bit. When new features like cloud saves were introduced, those code paths for checking storage devices had per title ID branches too. It seems like whether you design your APIs perfectly or poorly, someone will use them in a way just outside of your intention.
It just isn't right to make a kid live that way, in my opinion. Growing up, you need a strong support group of non-family peers to help you through personal and extrapersonal struggles. I was lucky enough to attend a public school, if I was homeschooled then I may have lost my mind completely. I'd spend all my free time reading books and daydreaming before I pieced together my first computer.

My point isn't to dramatize all this, just to highlight that you should probably prioritize the wellbeing of your children if you have any. Homesteading is great when you've seen the world and want to relax in satisfaction from your detatchment to society. It's the worst thing in the world when you're a curious child oblivious to reality.

That Cannabis Hyperemesis Syndrome is caused mostly by pesticides applied to flower. We see much less of this occuring since legalization, likely due to testing for many known pesticides, which is a good thing.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabinoid_hyperemesis_synd...

Nobody has really mentioned Plant Growth Regulators either, which are used to harden buds in the competition rose industry and are generally bad to ingest or combust.

People use them "because it's easier to trim" and yields more weight, and thus profits.

6 years so far in several legal states and not even a proposed framework has been presented to address PGRs.

Many may agree as growers on forums, but you'll be hard pressed to find it mentioned by stakeholders.

There's an important lesson to be learned here, in that the intricacies and subdivisions of your fandom only matter to you, and nobody else cares. Just like metalheads insist on profound differences between thrash and doom that no non-metalheads will ever notice, nobody cares about the differences between left- and right-accelerationsism when the practical effect-- destroying civilization and all its comforts, probably killing millions and leaving us in a miserable hard-scabble existence-- is the same.

We need a general solution to reestablishing authentication.

The hard-line solution would be that you go to a post office, airport, police station, motor vehicle office, passport office, or bank, they take your fingerprints, picture, and a retinal scan, you get a new ID card and token, and your old ones are invalidated.

The US just pushed the date for REAL ID enforcement further out, again. This time from spring 2023 to 2025.[1] REAL ID terrifies illegal aliens. Once everyone legal in the US has one, getting a job or traveling will be much harder.

> natural selection is the only causal mechanism (outside of pure chance)

It is this particular cult-like insistence on the omnipotence of natural selection that I challenge. Maybe there are other causal mechanisms? In any case, it needs to be a falsifiable hypothesis before we can call it "science". Can you prove natural selection caused this particular feature of suicidal honeybees? Even if we assume the author's natural selection explanation makes sense, the causal mechanism is FAR from clear.

My complaint is, biologists are wrong by limiting themselves ONLY to the evolutionary toolbox instead of seeking other causal mechanisms. And it looks like a conspiracy theory when the come up with fanciful unfalsifiable unprovable "evolutionary" explanations of everything.

> Because under a naive understanding of evolution, it is a paradox.

Then maybe the response should be, something is wrong with the theory of evolution, i.e. the theory of evolution cannot explain every feature of every living being, and we need not pretend it can.
For a web-based UI, if it manages to stay in the single-digit range I'd call that acceptable for all the functionality that you get in return. And I say this being skeptical of anything web-based in general.
SOC was in response from Enron which impacted a lot of regular people. Enron bought up utilities that were often “widow and orphan”, boring stocks that were held for a long time by retirees.
