15 day orbit, 170 day planetary rotation, that's an interesting one

Sucks for the amount of radiation ofc

Would be interesting to hypothesize of it being a larger mercury like planet than a earth like one

Please some more up to date astro-duders out there, is the James Webb currently capable of direct spectrography of exoplanets? We can do spectrography during the transit I am aware, but direct spectrography, is that possible? Specially when we are talking of an infrared telescope
Great suggestion on getting an additional COVID booster. I’ll bring it up with her medical providers.
One suspicion is that you're laundering money to yourself. That is, you purchase stolen credit card numbers, then use them to buy your own app, thus turning the cc numbers into actual cash through Apple.

But more so, they don't actually care that much about the whys. If your app draws lots of fraudulent purchases, they want it dead. You're just creating negative revenue (when the fraudulent purchases are reversed) and bad reputation for Apple.
I don't understand this, if this is referencing Plaid the payment company are they known to be particularly "hardcore" with employees? My only other assumption is the fabric pattern which can be considered "loud" by some
The typical remedy is to remove the person that sues from the published media.

Social media stuff has relatively ephemeral value compared to movies and TV series, and way simpler distribution.

(so like the YouTuber can pull the whole video or just chop out the segment that the person appears in)
I pay $130 AUD a month for 500/50 over HFC. Not ideal price wise but it works well enough, but man the NBN could’ve been so much better.

I could go to 1000mbps, but then I’m limited to 25mbps upload which is just terrible
Ok, let's go with that for now. Thanks!
The things others are pointing out (esp. selective grazing) are all factors.

Not sure how well-evidenced this is, but something I've heard from relevant researchers is that bison hooves are more scoop-link vs. cattle hooves. Bison more thoroughly till topsoil and activate microbial/fungal processes that promote floral diversity (among other things).

Maybe check out MD Anderson Cancer Center? I don’t have any specific knowledge of their educational materials, but they are one of the leaders in oncology in the US.
Is there a name for oft-repeating content/post and the overall discussion on a given topic (dotfile management in this case) on HN?

I am not complaining about the repeat. It’s just that I find it very amusing to see different people kinda-sorta reinventing the wheel (and discussing the nuts and bolts) again.
If people wanted one but don't anymore, what alternatives are you pursuing?
This is a neat, large study, but its a classic chicken and egg problem. Do you lack sexual interest because you are unhealthy, or does being unhealthy also make you not interested in sex. If you have heart problems or dying of cancer, you probably aren't looking to hook up all that much.
I agree but I thought the same thing. "Linked" sort of tacitly implies a positive correlation, not a negative one, I think.

Haha right?

I can sorta understand in some cases but I have no idea why there is a market for "skipping around" in single player.
Yeah I work in the gaming industry. I was mostly daydreaming of that in the browser.
Not sure how tasteful it was
fyi, yes, samsung monoculture is very strong. No foreign phone brands, especially Chinese, have gained significant market share (except apple ofc). Samsung with their 70% market share has been the undisputed champion in S. Korea for probably the whole post-iPhone era, even in the budget segment. Romming community does exist here and quite vibrant for its size but Samsung pumping out literal truckload of phone models (not to mention their carrier-locked variants which are more common like in the US), Knox (ew) and general public sentiment against modifying their devices means it's not really visible.
The implication is that scalability problems in software will get easier and easier over time, and far fewer developers will be needed to maintain these systems.

Which is already largely true today with the advent of serverless. Most maintenance work can center around application logic rather than scaling physical machines/maintaining versioning.

It's clear that many modern applications would take an order of magnitude more people to run even just 20 years ago. That trend will only continue
I'm a little less convinced that "crowd shots" count in this discussion.

When some jerk goes up to a girl with the intent to humiliate her for TikTok lulz by asking her to name 3 ACDC songs, that video no only should never be "shared with 3rd parties", but should never even be made in the first place.

On the other hand, I wouldn't even think about asking your consent to post a crowd pan shot of a music festival with hundreds (or thousands) of people in shot. And unless you happened to be one of the people right behind me and obviously recognisable in the clip, I'd consider you insane if you objected or asked me to take it down.

I've not fully thought this through, but there's a big difference between "active engagement" with a specific person like the TikTok jerk, and passive engagement like "look at the crowd here at SXSW!" And there's a hard line in the sand about the TikTok jerk's intentions of hoping to humiliate people publicly.

If that TikTok jerk had caught me on a bad day as I was coming back to my partner while he was pulling that shit, he'd probably be buying a new microphone and camera after I'd stomped them...
Canada gets such a free pass, being loved by everybody and all. Once the world figures out what we're really up to...

That feeling of absolute dread, thinking 'my parents are gonna kill me when they realize I killed the family computer' did a lot to prepare me for the white-knuckle experience of troubleshooting problems in Production. :)

Bless the talented engineers that put together last-ditch recovery methods and bless the folks that documented things well enough to let us make use of them.
Then a better word choice would be "lack of interest" or "uninterest"...
You actually were wrong to disregard this entirely although of course having a public key doesn't allow somebody to trick GitHub into thinking they know your private key -- the trick this whoami server is doing could indeed be fooled that way.

When you call GitHub, after the server proves who it is to the client we get to user authentication, the client says e.g. "I'm tialaramex, and I can prove it, I know tialaramex's private key corresponding to public key 123456, and also private key corresponding to public key 987654". The server looks at the claimed user identity and keys and it can decide it wants to see that proof, for a real SSH server that'll be because it knows those keys are allowed to authenticate for that user (e.g. on a default Linux they're in the user's .ssh/authorized_keys file)

But whoami isn't a real SSH server, it's just looking at the claims, and anybody can make such claims.

If you get my GitHub public key, and you tell whoami "Yeah, I can prove I'm tialaramex, I know the corresponding private key for this public key" the whoami service doesn't actually check you can do that, it just says OK, I guess you're tialaramex.

A more nefarious thing is possible, which I'll mention but it isn't what whoami does. If you run a broadly used SSH server which actually authenticates users, you could scan those public keys against data sets like the one from GitHub, and correlate your users. So e.g. you can see that "Kittens4Ever" on your service is using the same key for that service as "DogsRuleCatsDrool" on GitHub and now you know those are in some sense the "same person". This can't be spoofed because you're actually checking those private key signature proofs, which whoami does not do.

This key correlation is why Security Keys (say a modern Yubikey, or cheaper alternative tokens) mint a brand new random private key for every enrolment. When I enrol the exact same token at Live.com, at GitHub, and at Facebook, the device mints three separate keys which can't be externally correlated, even though I can sign in seamlessly in all three places. So I could authenticate to the Live.com account "HackerNewsNoob" and the GitHub user "DanGFanClub" which says I've followed the site for many years - using literally the same Yubikey to do it - and even though Microsoft owns both services I'd have to give away the connection by some other means (e.g. linking them both on my HN about box, just using my public IP addresses not Tor or VPNs) or there's no practical way they'd be able to connect the dots.
Ugly cars, kind of sporty yet also frumpy looking and the new front bumpers have always seemed unattractive to me. Clearly the automated driving features aren't there yet, I like driving anyway so paying a heap for a car with features I'm not gonna use is a waste. More generally, seriously not a fan of Elon's flippant nature. Having features turn off when you sell the car to someone else is not acceptable. I suspect that something will happen that will change the balance of how much you own the car even more in Tesla's favor soon, and I'm not keen to be in line to test it.
Heh - that reminded me of the old infocom games :-) Just needed a lantern and a fish!
Could be a non problem depending on the atmosphere
I don't know why, but stuff like this (e.g. the Apollo moon lander assembly code) is really interesting to me. I think it's because I wish I had this kind of knowledge and skill. It seems daunting to wrap my head around it and become proficient.
Slight correction – French fries are in fact from France. It's just that the name "French fries" is mostly only used in America.
Followed by an ALM movement a hundred years later. Aliens will rise up complaining of how they were treated in the mines by no other than the earthling colonists.
That seems like a prodigious waste of everyone's time. In Japan, from what I've experienced, when there are not many people, you can get the door to close immediately after you get in, and it starts moving very soon after that. Imagine all the productive hours lost because of this.
I used it. It was great especially when you collaborated with other people in the same project who used the same Smalltalk base-image.

But things got tricky when different people use different base-images and it is so easy to create new base-images. When you depend on (specific facts about) your base-image you don't need to declare such dependencies anywhere. Combine that with dynamic typing of Smalltalk. Then when you try to move to a different Smalltalk things just don't work and it takes time and effort to figure out why.

I guess the way to do it would be to never save your image, but that is so easy and convenient. But if you never save your image, it is as if you are not using the feature of having the "image", so you can't really say it is a good feature if you never use it.

When you do image-based development it is hard to control what and how many dependencies you create that are dependencies on the image you are currently working in.
This is overly simplistic. The expectation is reduced, not wholly eliminated.
Motion is not progress.

In fact it’s often meant to distract from the lack of progress.

It’s not the lack of progress that is the concern, it’s the subterfuge.
Do bear normally live on the prairie? Strikes me as a hard landscape to be a solo ambush predator in (From a really quick Google, looks like bison and bears have the same top speed, which implies they'd have to attack from cover, as they're not exactly great coursers like wolves).

Especially given that a herd of bison would be more than capable of taking on a bear, like wolves, it would have to isolate an individual to escape unscathed.

Also: humans is my other guess - we have a well earned reputation for extirpating predators that compete with us.
If elon was as distant in the rear view mirror as WW2 Germany, I'm sure people would feel differently.
I skimmed through the readme, which explains the concepts quite well, but am unclear on what needs to be installed on each machine (assuming Windows as the source and Linux as the destination). There’s a mention of copying the Linux build output, cdc_rsync_server, to the Windows machine. Why is this needed? And is there something on the Linux machine that needs to be (newly) added in the PATH?
There’s been a dedicated button too right? Idk I personally stopped using it a few years back when I learned that it capped out at like 500 entries and overwrote my old entries.

Yeah, I'm not a climate change skeptic but I've basically become skeptical of any claim I read about it now.

One of these days I'll actually read the IPCC report so I can hopefully sift through the claims myself.

Is land availability really the problem we're dealing with though? There is plenty of space, but one issue is that we're using it for direct and indirect production of meat. Switch to vegetarian diets and all of a sudden that space, energy and water can be used to grow food directly, no? Parent was talking about a mega project which this would absolutely also be as well, it just sounds like a lot less work on the ground, but more work in people's heads.
Otis offered that as an option from the 1960s. Here's the vocabulary.[1] It's still available, but seems to have fallen out of fashion with the decline of elevator music.

What's the logic behind requiring this to happen every time? Why not just have a handicap button like doors do, and letting the elevator stay efficient the rest of the time?

The analogy isn't the same, the lock could copy the actual key to make a replica in the future.

ssh is only flashing the "name" printed on each key and asking if it should try one of them. (not exactly but it's more equivalent)
What it means is that there is no “real” justification for something to be valuable, is what people agree on. If enough people agree that crypto is valuable and want to buy it, then it is valuable for as long as people believe it is. Just like any other form of currency.

Their service centers treat you like you are gum on their shoe. I'll never buy another one. If it was once, I'd allow it could be a fluke. But it is constant, and in multiple states. Even simple parts are like searching for teeth on hens. It has to be a deliberate plan from Elon Musk.
Detected by the radial velocity method, measuring the parent star being pulled toward and away from us by a variation of at little as 2-3 meters per second! It always blows my mind that we can measure that.
I never see the ads with uBlock Origin on Firefox. It's even available on the Firefox Android app, but on mobile I find Newpipe from F-Droid is a better experience. I haven't tried SponsorBlock, but I've heard it uses crowdsourced data to automatically skip the sponsor sections of videos.
…or Ford (with two large factories in Berlin and Cologne during the Third Reich) and GM (back then owner of Opel)? Oh, and IBM/DEHOMAG or Disney products?

The difference is that Musk is running Tesla right now and not a human lifetime ago…
I think it’s pretty different from therapy. Interference is when something you’ve learned before gets in the way. I drove a three wheeled mototaxi this week and nearly crashed the thing because I instinctually drove it like a motorcycle. Transference is when something you’ve learned helps. My time checking gear when climbing trees helped when I started scuba diving.

These are the definitions I remember from studying for the FAA Fundamentals of Instruction exam one night 10 years ago, so maybe double check if you want to know more.

Edit: and to try to add something besides the definitions. Interference is best avoided consciously. If I thought “how is this different from a motorcycle?” I would have known to avoid countersteering. Transference is best done unconsciously. Wait to say “this is just like X” until you actually get the hang of it. You’ll run into interference otherwise. Better to sort of have it be like you’re some gifted natural when you actually just have done something with good overlap before. Don’t act like you already know it. Just let yourself learn fast.
That's sheer insanity. It's mind boggling that at that distance (and therefore footprint on the optical elements) you can directly resolve something even as small as 7x Jupiter.
You may have heard people say that “business” is not a deep
discipline and I think the theory of business is pretty accessible.

Go to any business school site and just look at the MBA curriculum:

https://www.hbs.edu/mba/academic-experience/curriculum/Pages...

I would then focus on the introductory courses (typically Accounting, Valuation, Marketing, Org theory etc).

Find the syllabus for those courses or the text book and just browse it.

That won’t teach it all but it will sort of give you a map of the territory so you can look it up when you need to. About the level of memory most MBA grads have 5 years after graduation.
With the current anti TikTok feeling in the US, I wonder how hard it would be to push for laws requiring TikTok to delete accounts of users who do this kind of content?

TikTok assholes may not have any assets to make them worth suing (or even any identities you can point your lawyer at), but one thing that they do value is their following, if we can make this sort of shitty behaviour an existential risk to their TikTok clout, perhaps the behaviour will go away. Humiliating people in public for lulz should be a bankable offence on all social media platforms, with the only defence being pre-existing model releases if you're doing it with informed and paid actors.
If things end up online (and everything recorded by a modern cam will end up online at least at one of Google, Apple, FB, or MS) this is not OK. You can't control what those companies do with the data. If you don't like your life ending up in the cloud nobody may film you without your consent. There is not much room for discussion. (Maybe if the recordings would be done with offline devices and you would get written guaranties that the recording never gets onto an networked computer, but who could promise this in today's world?)
In Japan, it’s been common practice to blur out the faces of anyone who hasn’t given consent in a photo/video. This applies to crowds as well. This can be an easy way to always avoid being a dick.

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

Richard Brevard Russell Jr. (November 2, 1897 – January 21, 1971) was an American politician. A member of the Democratic Party, he served as the 66th Governor of Georgia from 1931 to 1933 before serving in the United States Senate for almost 40 years, from 1933 to 1971. Russell was a founder and leader of the conservative coalition that dominated Congress from 1937 to 1963, and at his death was the most senior member of the Senate.[1][2] He was for decades a leader of Southern opposition to the civil rights movement.[3]

There are many older and more venerable file transfer protocols, like FTP or TFTP. Add encryption and then you have SCP and SFTP. SFTP is the default protocol used by the scp command, and TFTP is still often used to communicate with routers and access points and similar equipment.

And I'm not sure what that has anything to do with TCP not as reliable. TCP has real problems on the modern Internet but the first part does not imply the second part.
We pay $50 per month real money for the service, regardless of the net metering. If we are net producers in a given month, we pay nothing additional for power, and get a credit (in kwh) that rolls forward to the next month. If we are net users, after applying any rolled forward credits, we pay for the net usage in addition to the $50. Once a year, any rolled forward credits not used are paid to us at what amounts to wholesale rates, so we start over with zero credit balance.
