If there was a true problem it could be solved by having less kids. Why do you end your sentence with this dipshit way of arguing? Nobody falls for that. Of course we all know the game here is for someone to call you out being a passive aggressive dipshit and play the victim once that happens.

Yeah we may need to add gaps to the solar panels so there’s less surface for wind to grab, and we’ll have to make sure they’re secured nice and tight! I hope we get some customers in windy areas to test and give us feedback too. It’s all about community involvement here.

Diagnostics would be great and we do have some of that rolled in to the software now. I’m sure there’s room for more. We are MIG welding the new frames and they should be quick enough to do in the field if needed!

Wow, what a read. Wokeness really does break people's minds. I see what he means about his friend becoming radicalized by all this.

> Which boils down to this: CRT/BLM is supported by left-wing. So if I am critical of CRT/BLM, then I must be right-wing, and the fact that I even want to discuss this topic means that the discussion is ‘political’.

I've noticed this with ... certain other politicized topics. I'm very left-wing, so it's always amusing being accused of being right-wing by woke fanatics because I happened to disagree with them on some issue. Even if I approach it from a left-wing, anti-capitalist point of view. If it doesn't match what they've been told to think on social media, then that's it - an enemy is speaking, full of evil and malice.

It's all getting quite ridiculous.

I'm not being pedantic, I'm disagreeing with you. Friendster (2002) was wildly popular. LiveJournal (1999) was huge. The things you list (Usenet, BBSes, etc) we're the precursors but they were not social media where LiveJournal was (to an extent) and Friendster is arguably the original. There was something before Facebook and MySpace and there will be something after. Facebook is neither unique enough nor important enough to hold in this level of esteem. It is and always has been derivative.

It was decimated because FTX held between 5-11% of all Sol and sold it immediately when they were going down, dropping the price from 36 to 10 dollars.

I'm not a prime member, but it's just before midnight Wednesday 28 December. If I order by 2am then Amazon UK says I can have Greg Egan's "Diaspora" (paperback) on Friday. None of the local bookshops open until after New Year (rural UK).

I'm rarely that desperate but Amazon delivery beats petrol costs here and can take only a day longer (assuming goods are even on the shelf locally).

I can get it from bookshop.org on Friday too, but it is £15.50, vs Amazon's £10.50.

It's bizarre that TikTok can genuinely determine roughly what I am in the mood for within a few videos, but Google Maps can't learn my preferences based on how I travel. The former seems far, far harder - and Google has almost my entire location history recorded from the last 10ish years!

The solar is an experiment to see if we can build a system that reduces waste. Farms already rely on sun to operate and we want to see if we can build a farming system that does the same. This reduces waste as our super caps last a million charge cycles while lithium batteries only last a few thousand.
That’s a reasonable argument and all I can say is that I always try to do what’s right in my own heart.

Just a quick note that the OWASP Top 10, if you take it seriously at all, doesn't rank vulnerabilities in order of severity; SQLI isn't the "third worst" web vulnerability (it's probably tied for #1 or #2, depending on how you bucket RCE).
I've gone to Barnes & Noble 2 - 3 times a week for 10 - 15 years. I sit in the cafe with my cafe mocha and do some work, then browse books for a while. I never get tired of it. I read about their financial problems through the 20-teens and was sadly expecting that they'd go under.

When James Daunt was named CEO, the changes were immediate. The spacer boxes appeared on the shelves; as someone else mentioned, they allow books to be placed cover forward, which is better for visual appeal. The front cover is what book designers design for. It also reduces the number of books on the shelves, which helps keep inventory lean.

They rearranged the shelves on the store floor so you had fewer rows of parallel shelves like an old-school library. In my store, shelves were arranged to create a little enclaves for mystery and detective fiction and for hardback fiction. The store layout is more varied and interesting.

On several occasions, I've seen guys who were, from their conversations, some kind of "store layout consultants" talking to the managers and discussing moving stuff around and changing displays.

The folks who worked at the store were very encouraged. Many had been through the big layoff in 2018 (when a lot of full-timers were abruptly let go - see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16389342). They liked the new changes - it was clear that the company was finally being run by someone who understood books. (I read somewhere - can't find the link - that Daunt even thinks about the angle of the shelves, because he thinks a certain angle is best for visibility.)

The company seemed to be more realistic about what wasn't working. Most significantly, the Nook section near the door disappeared. Other smaller things that weren't selling (like Lamy fountain pens) also disappeared. Inventory in general is more controlled: They started turning over the magazines much faster, to the point where if I was interested in a magazine I found I couldn't wait too long.

The technical book section isn't what it used to be, but they do carry a lot of No Starch books. I'm not a programmer, but I have a few No Starch books and e-books. I like the publisher (and given the problems with their books being counterfeited on Amazon, I'd rather buy a paper version in store if I want one).

Some stuff they've done in my store doesn't make sense to me - for instance, separating fiction into hardback and paperback. The classics section has been partially separated by publisher. I don't think that's how people look for books: They ask for "Crime and Punishment", not the paperback edition of "Crime and Punishment", or the Penguin edition. People want to see all the editions of "Crime and Punishment" together so they can compare and choose. Right or wrong, at least these are changes which reflect someone thinking about books.

The pandemic closure was a setback, and a lot of people who used to work at my store didn't return to work. But the store has come back pretty well. There's nothing else like Barnes & Noble, so I hope these changes work out.

In the past, there were used bookstores everywhere that you could sell your books to. I don’t know of any used bookstores any more except one that is really far from where I live

I think used bookstores failed because they didn’t curate their selections enough. You can’t go into one expecting to find a specific book — you go there to discover new books. When the shelves are packed with books nobody wants, it removes the reason to go there
No, they’re bugs, but Solana (average 4500 transactions per second) competes more with Visa (average 7500 transactions per second) and older blockchains aren’t even in the arena. The bugs get fixed, Solana’s pretty stable, you can see the exact numbers at https://status.solana.com/
Thanks for the clarification and I just now see that indeed also in this video the rover is moving in the video in the beginning. But not very long and I assume many people are like me lazily skimming through things half distracted - and missing the important parts and just leave - so I still would advice to start a video with some more action. Not necessarily TikTok style (for me that would be off putting), but still more focus on the rover in action. (Like a speedrun)

"So future videos will be me standing in one spot reading an update while I play b-roll of whatever we’re discussing on screen."

That sounds solid enough. I am also in the process of working up the presentation of a software open source project - and I totally get lost in fancy details, while forgetting the essentials.

I have. He doesn't come right out and say "lack of sleep causes cancer", but he insinuates it, repeatedly, by citing associative studies.

This is the kind of stuff that infuriates most scientists -- we go out of our way to draw strong conclusions based on weak evidence, but people who are willing to do so can usually capture the public imagination with clear narratives and scary anecdotes.

Even if the studies cited in "Why We Sleep" are correctly done, they're such extraordinary claims that they require extensive confirmation before they're to be believed. Laypeople don't understand this, so authors can cite "the scientific literature", sound authoritative, and still mislead.

Seeing the grand ambitions of these 'builders', the first thing that pops up in my mind is, how do I protect my freedoms from these people? The only political power I have is a vote and some measly donations to candidates who have my best interests at heart. But how can that compete with the immense political power that these guys wield with their money, media control and lobbying power?
> ...a platform censoring viewpoints is a violation of the principal of free speech, and morally reprehensible in a free democratic society

Agree to disagree here - Twitter and every other social media site are essentially complimentary printing presses in the middle of town that some private party pays for and allows everyone to use, with some conditions. In a free and democratic society, we're all free to buy our own printing presses that don't come with those conditions. With your own personal printing press you're free to print anything you want, hate speech and all, up to the extreme limits of the First Amendment. You're just not entitled to no-strings-attached use of someone else's printing press. You're also not entitled to an audience - if your own free speech platform is something like 8chan, you're going to get 8chan levels of traffic, not Twitter levels of traffic.

Twitter's general policy was about the same as Fox News'[1].

Not really sure how you see me arguing anything whatsoever. My only statement is how I'm displeased with a group of podcaster personalities. That's not an ad hominem, that's me saying Lex F and Joe Rogan are features of an unhealthy media landscape.

The scariest thing about China's geopolitics is that it has embedded itself in pretty much every country on the planet. Whether that is by financing major infrastructure projects, being the world's largest creditor (beyond the World Bank and the IMF), or having hundreds of police stations around the world. This gives it immense leverage to influence governments to act in their favor.

This is not even accounting for the propaganda machinery spamming the internet, or their role as the world's factory.

While the US has been overthrowing governments and replacing them with puppets, China has been diplomatically and methodically setting up the chess board to be in a winning position in the long run. This makes them a far scarier adversary than the West with its military superiority.
I know it's a joke but I'm not convinced he is still solvent. I'd guess he's diversified and isolated stuff so that he can't technically go bankrupt, but as I understand his wealth is based on his shares in his companies which he's devaluing even as he's pledges it as security for a company he's destroying.

How do you know a book in a shop wasn't printed by a rogue party? Maybe the "bookshop" had a EULA saying you don't own the book?

Buying a DRM book and stripping the DRM doesn't deny the seller, nor author, anything they previously had. It just lets you do what you paid for.

Just send them your own EULA at "purchase" if you think that unilateral terms no one reads should be binding on the other party.

This is not legal advice and is my own personal opinion.

I have ten years of industry experience. To me, "extensive open source contributions" is synonymous with either deep industry expertise or academic research. It's the realm of people writing app frameworks, databases, and distributed software.

To be frank, "too inexperienced to get a job? time to contribute to open source!" is almost always a glib and unhelpful retort. If someone can't get recruiters to reach out, they probably don't have the expertise to build open source, and vice versa. Open source is not a dumping ground for inexperienced newcomers.
