And I think the nature of open content is still relatively new, so that's the best explanation I have for why it hasn't been done yet.
My previous home in London was a purpose built flat. I could chose between two different fibre-to-the-home providers that had each run their own wire to each apartment in the block. They were both quite cheap.

Recently I moved to a terraced house about 300m from my previous flat. The only internet option is expensive and slow fibre-to-the-cabinet-down-the-street.

Yes, coverage in London is uneven!
Thanks, looks like it's pretty strigent. Well worst case I'll put it up for free when done. Don't think anyone is going to pay anyway, just a hobby project.
Kind of scaremongering. Yes, quality varies, but if you really want to be diligent it's easy to find what the good brands are, that are getting tests, have certifications, etc.

Most of the vitamin supplements are cheap to make, there's really no reason for the manufacturer to risk it with adulterated product.
Well, yes, but that's part of being "off-grid" as parent described.
You can't take back prison either, so you have reason to reconsider that as well, considering it steals years from someone's life and is torture in many (most?) places.

Local businesses even in San Pedro & the nice parts of DF routinely pay uniformed police officers to stand in certain places while on/off duty, that you don’t seen them loitering outside the door during business hours generally means it’s working.

IMO this is what allows him to escape guilt free. Although his solution didn’t last, it lasted long enough that the money saved was far greater than if they had not paid him $50k. This could be a good hack for a startup that needs to temporarily reduce its cost for some short period of time.

Do this as quickly as possible for a a dozen or so clients and you could build a decent nest egg in a short period of time.
Reducing cloud costs, especially if the dev team does not have anyone experienced enough to focus on this, is often possible on massive scales. More so if you have free reign to optimize/rewrite stuff as you see fit. While not 90%, I've reduced cost by 83% in one case while increasing the ability to serve during peak times also.
It's building regulations - basically what's called "code" in the US. The building inspector (should) make sure it's followed. No lawyers needed.

They need to reword the law to keep up with Moore's Law, so that if you built a home in 2023 you'd be required to have 1 gigabit, in 2024 you'd be required to have 1.2 gigabit, in 2025 you'd be required to have 1.44 gigabit, etc.

The moment internet connections don't keep up with Moore's Law, the real estate typhoons would then have no choice but to fund bandwidth-related R&D to get internet connections back on track with the requirement before they could sell more homes.
30k does sound a bit crazy but maybe it works for parent. I was taking 4k IU during colder months of WFH and after a few months had to reduce it because I was getting close to the upper acceptable limit (starting from low levels). It's important to calibrate with regular tests.
Counterpoint: I also measured the pollution from my gas stove (using the same meter the author is, from the look of the graph) and it was well within acceptable parameters. And I don't even have a vent above it.

I bought a meter and started monitoring after reading an article similar to this one.

My next stove will probably be induction, but just be aware that not ALL gas stoves are problematic if set up correctly and burning cleanly.

Definitely get a meter to make sure, though.

Edit: since lots of people asked, I got a uHoo sensor from Amazon. It measures basically everything and cost $300.
How much of a concern is the length of the URL? It doesn't matter for bookmarks, but what about sharing? Character limits, or even just the unwieldiness of long URLs in a textarea?
I think they actually did a really good job with the 5e rules. I started in 3.5e 15+ years ago. I very strongly dislike 4e. I haven't yet been convinced by any alternatives that the d20 system isn't optimal.

D&D 5th edition obviously has problems but, like other comments say, it is the current "lingua franca" of the space and it's difficult to conceive of any realistic open replacement that isn't essentially just "D&D 5e with some relatively minor tweaks".
I admitted that my comments about EFAIL -- four years ago now -- were in the wrong, and apologized for them. Unless you're going to argue that this issue should justify consuming 70% of my system's network bandwidth without recourse, move on.

In the interest of not feeding the trolls, I think I can safely stop engaging with you on this thread. Or maybe on any thread -- you and I never seem to have a productive conversation on this website.
But "what is interesting" ??

If you just want to perform improv-roleplay out some scenarios, then Dread is probably the best. The only action the players do is:

1. Pull piece out of the Jenga Tower

2. Roleplay the result (success == You succeeded at the current situation. Tower-falls == you die).

------------

There's better systems out there (aka: Dread) if you really just wanted simplicity. World of Darkness is probably the more mainstream "simple / roleplay heavy" game of importance. (Dread is perhaps overly simple, but that's the point of it. Its basically improv / roleplaying simulator and that alone)

D&D, for all of its faults, is a fully specified battle simulator. It doesn't mean that everything makes sense (what were the grapple rules again?), but most everything has been thought out, and what "should happen" is often written down somewhere.

On the other hand, many people prefer improv / rules-free systems (like Dread, or World of Darkness to a lesser extent).

Anyway, there's plenty of other games. But the niche of D&D is the well specified set of rules of how magic and physical interact with each other. (This magical force field has X HP and 30 Hardness, interacting with your Adamantine sword that ignores hardness 20 and less, etc. etc.)

Search the HN archive. There are lots of debates and discussions about air quality sensors, especially around the time of the West Coast US fires.

But from right now, every time you turn on your gas stove or oven, open a window and set your stove extractor fan to maximum, even if it briefly makes your house cold.
“I hope my death brings the family peace. I’m ready Warden.”
So did I until I used it for a while. Going back the other way a couple of things bothered me. First, it’s dripping a bit while you give it a chance to brew. But also, inverted it’s clearer how much hot water to add, right up to the top, whereas right-side-up, you’re pushing the plunger into the cylinder filled with hot water, which conflicts with wanting to get a maximum cup from an already minimum process. Somehow inverted is just feels overall more consistent and precise.

Also, I lost my t-handled stirrer and when inverted you can’t accidentally lift the filter with a spoon. By complete coincidence, I found that dang stirrer yesterday so I may give right-side-up another go.

Also, I like imagining the coffee maker is the Rocinante doing a flip ‘n’ burn ;)

This post and the comments remind me of this old mocking tweet [1] equating techy rationalists to quokka

> The quokka is a meme animal that lives on Bald Island on the SW coast of Australia, where it has no natural predators. If you visit this island, it will fearlessly walk up and try to hug you..........The quokka, like the rationalist, is a creature marked by profound innocence. The quokka can't imagine you might eat it, and the rationalist can't imagine you might deceive him. As long they stay on their islands, they survive, but both species have problems if a human shows up.

Among my peers, a contractless intangible favor weighs far heavier than one signed on paper with a $$-sign associated with it. That I'd offer/accept such a favor from someone not in my close group of 'people who would uproot their lives for me' is unthinkable. It is a double edged sword. Good faith and high trust societies allow for frictionless societies, but only because betraying that trust has very high social (and sometimes legal) costs. But at some-point, if it is truly no-strings-attached, you're just naïve & gullible. You're letting yourself be taken advantage of, and your naivete is actively working towards the future destruction of the high trust society.

________

People should stop trying to be selfless. It is possible to convince/delude your conscious into believing that you are being selfless. But enough unreciprocated favors make you jaded in the subconscious. It is an unhealthy festering that goes on, until a person finds values that sit well with both the conscious and the subconscious.

Invest in people (monetarily or as a relationship) directly. That way, if things go south, you can blame your intuition for picking (human) stocks, rather than resenting the person who failed despite their best efforts. Ask for reciprocation in intangibles (look after my kids, teach me a skill, be my emotional shoulder, let me crash anytime) they can easily give. That way, you are almost paying for a service more so than giving an unprotected loan.

My experience comes from living in joint-family style Asian relationships. They go above and beyond for members of the family who are struggling, but never properly communicate the nature of the unspoken interest that this help entails. So the helped person ends up in a situation where they don't know if they can ever say 'No' to those who helped them at a rough time. It also means that if the helped person isn't reciprocating in (the unspoken) kind, then they get slandered as being selfish, while simultaneously not knowing what is expected from them in the first place. Don't make your friends read your mind. Sign a contract (socially or legally) make the stakes clear to everyone. Life is a lot easier that way.

Paradoxically, Being aware of the transactional nature of relationships, helps structure transactions where favors don't impose an unseen burden on the counterpart in the relationship. In a weird way, being more selfish, is the best way to be selfless.

I would be very concerned about contaminants in collagen supplements.

If you look at studies of, for example, bone broths cooked with 1) only meat, 2) meat and bones, or 3) meat, bones, and skin, the amount of lead rises significantly with the additions of skin and cartilage included with the bones [1].

Another study[2] indicates that in the form of bone broth, the levels of lead and cadmium are acceptable because they're only a few μg, but my concern rises when you'd be potentially reducing a fluid like bone broth into a powder and consuming quite a bit of it at a time.

The supplement industry is notorious for substandard or absent testing, so it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if some bottles of collagen pills may contain several μg. If you take 5, then eat other foods with relatively high contamination, over time this habit seems like it has potential to significantly increase the heavy metal content in your body.

I don't mean to be a scare-monger at all, and if someone knows more about this then please feel free to let me know I'm crazy.

The paper discusses this. The issues here are all idiosyncratic to Threema's design. I don't know what "classical architectures" refers to here, but one of Paterson's research areas is formal modeling of cryptography protocols, and a recurring complaint in this paper is that Threema is at turns either so simplistic or so weird that it is hard to apply the formal models the field has already built to it.
money and probably the fact that they are near to other great developers...
WotC/Hasbro has named their next release "One D&D". They clearly want to clear the field of other compatible rules-sets, and have just a singular system that they control, manage, and profit from. My guess is that they see the profits that Apple and Google make from their App Store, and want all future add-on content to D&D to be paying them 25% of revenues, rather than 0% right now.

I had a strong negative reaction to 4e without having consumed any media that would have primed me to dislike it.

It felt like it was designed by people who thought the kids are playing World of Warcraft instead of D&D, and tried to design a game that would appeal to them with similar party roles and a layout of cards in front of you that perhaps would remind you of a WoW inventory with all its timers. The problem with that while the same people might want to play both a table-top RPGs session and raid night, they don't like them for the same reasons.

5e's approach was much smarter: simplify a few annoying things (like level 1 damage), tweak the design and add a bunch of cool stuff, but otherwise just let D&D be D&D and lean on marketing the aesthetic/nostalgia and the ability to play without needing to find someone local to teach it to you and your friends.

The Extreme Shortage of High IQ Workers
Ikea used to have a cheap (~$20?) hand-crank ceramic burr grinder. It was excellent for the money, but coffee snobs turned up their noses because it wasn't as good as ones costing 5x.

There just isn't a market for such things, or at least there isn't if it is only being compared to very expensive stuff. Ikea might still sell it in some markets, but definitely not in the USA.
>Dare I say I find it rather comforting to know these people no longer walk the earth.

And if, next week, evidence is found that one or more of those folks didn't commit the crimes for which they were convicted -- are you still going to be comforted by their deaths?

I'd say that being in prison serves essentially the same purpose, had those folks not been executed, they'd be in prison and that's enough comfort for me.

Isn't that enough "comfort" for you?

That's not a jab at you. Rather, I'd like to understand why you feel that simply removing such folks from society (i.e., a long prison sentence) isn't sufficient, and death is the correct response?

Is there something I'm missing?
> which at least to my open source license not-a-lawyer read says that they basically can't revoke it.

Its complicated.

The general law of gratuitous licenses (in the US) is that they are revocable at will; terms of the license do not overcome this. Whether the restrictions in a license like this are limitations on the permissions it grants (leaving it gratuitous) or consideration in exchange for permissions (making it a license contract) is not always an easy question.

Further, even if things for which the license has already been uses might be protected, the license text is an offer, and the offer can be withdrawn. This is important, because the OGL 1.0a isn’t sublicensable; every new user making a new work directly licenses all ancestor works under it, rather than sublicensing through the immediate parent.

But, even to the extent it is recovable, the doctrine of promissory estoppel may limit the effect on parties who have already reasonably relied on the promise of irrevocability.

The solar/wind cost argument you refer to relies entirely on an accountant's metric called Levelized Cost of Electricity, which explains what the cheapest power sources are on the margin, given today's fossil-backed grid. Wind and solar and fracked gas do great in this metric.

But when you start looking at costs of the entire future decarbonized electricity system, including all the stuff needed to level out the weather-dependence of wind and solar, and you start comparing e.g. a 100% wind + solar + batteries grid vs. a wind + solar + hydro + nuclear grid, you start seeing dramatic differences. There's a metric being developed called Levelized Full system Cost of Electricity to handle this.

Anyway it turns out that having a 24/7 zero-carbon miniscule-footprint energy source like nuclear fission in the mix is a huge help to the overall system.

Also, nuclear can use its 'waste' heat as district heat and pump warm water up to 100 km to fully decarbonize local building heat without going through an electrical conversion.

Also nuclear works great in deep space.

So yeah, I see a great future for nuclear in the near, medium, and extremely distance future.
