It's a combination of historical industrial strategy, a culture with love of learning and individuals with a great love of learning who happened to be creative and innovative enough to discover these elements.

It's not like these elements are nowhere else. In fact, I don't think any yttrium, ytteribum, etc. is mined in Sweden at all.
This is pretty interesting post. I really like the relaxation of the rationality constraint for these models because it's so clearly not true.

> Because of their geochemical properties, rare-earth elements are typically dispersed and not often found concentrated in rare-earth minerals. Consequently, economically exploitable ore deposits are sparse (i.e. "rare").

Regardless, they never show up in a pure form in nature so what we should really be looking at is how common minerals that they're easy to extract from are not how common the atom itself is. And the useful rare-earth minerals are indeed "rare"
At some point, you need to give a shot at teaching writing (and, for that matter, presenting) in high school. I'm unconvinced on the write an essay in class idea; seems like sort of a waste of class time. Writing is not a mostly a real-time collaborative exercise. (Writer's room I know but that's not high school. As a group exercise, you'd end up with one student probably doing all the work.)

It's lipstick on a pig, and yet another layer of complexity on top of the myriad of modern web development.

The solution to better web development is staying as far away from JavaScript as possible, not polishing what is frankly a turd.

I think it's masochism to have a Javascript project that big that benefits from strict typing.

For the purposes of this conversation, which is about economics not geochemistry, they are in fact rare. At least the minerals are
Having had Kaiser, it really, really really depends on what care you seek.

Broken arm? great. Straightforward / well known ailment? Check check check. Psychiatric care? Hit or miss, but was not good in our experience (I can attest to some close friends and family who did receive quality care). Need an uncommon specialist or research doctor? Horrible.

My partner has a relatively rare thoracic spinal herniation issues, and Kaiser just wanted to put her on drugs and tell her "too bad, its all we can do". No physical therapist specializations, only 1 standard MRI and was looked at by a doctor who was not a specialist in thoracic spinal issues. When we balked at that, they then tried to turn around say it was "all in her head". We had to go out of pocket to see a physical therapist who specialized in this sort of thing to get any real help, and we have as of yet to meet a doctor who's willing to take on her case and advocate for specialized care, who then recommended us a chronic pain psychiatric specialist who's job is, to tl;dr, to help train the mind to lessen the daily chronic pain. That combined with a pretty strict diet & regiment of physical activities are the only thing giving her quality of life. Kaiser blew it. I can only imagine how much worse off we'd be had I not have a good job to cover the costs out of pocket.

The government. The mechanism is called Contracts for Difference, and as the name implies they work by ensuring the difference between an agreed strike price and the actual price - in either direction is paid

However, notice two further considerations:

1. Such contracts eventually expire. Exactly when varies. But the wind farm is still there, just now the energy price all goes to the operator.

2. Older government subsidies were not CfD. Ten years ago if you built a wind farm you got a direct subsidy. The CfD schemes come into existence from about 2014. They're one of a small number of good ideas the Tories had. They're in line with Tory ideology, but they also actually make sense in the world that actually exists.

Ethan Siegel isn't so certain: https://bigthink.com/starts-with-a-bang/most-distant-galaxie...

The tl;dr is that we're finding quite a few red galaxies and red can mean distant (and therefore old) but you need to follow-up and do further direct measurements of each galaxy to be really certain that it's old and not red looking for some other reason.

Some of these unexpectedly red galaxies have been followed up on, and some are indeed old, but it's not enough data points yet to be certain of anything.

The fun part of science is that either way it's pretty exciting!

My point is not that they should take “pain”. My point is that they shouldn’t go around talking about “taking full responsibility” when there is no negative consequence for them. I guess it’s just an emotional / cultural norm.

E.g. if somebody is committed of a crime and says “I take full responsibility for my actions” to the judge just before being sentenced, then that is a very strong signal of character for me.

But if somebody says “I take full responsibility for my actions” just before jumping in an Uber to go to a luxury dinner with the board of directors, then that does not impress me and I perceive it as a cheap attempt to reap the social benefits of saying that phrase with none of the potential costs.

>Last week right after he pleaded not guilty, he filed an objection in the FTX bankruptcy case arguing that the Robinhood shares he purchased with money borrowed from Alameda are his personal assets.

I don't know if you were referring to the following part of the article, but, in case others are missing the context:

>>Nearly all of my assets were and still are utilizable to backstop FTX customers. I have, for instance, offered to contribute nearly all of my personal shares in Robinhood to customers–or 100%, if the Chapter 11 team would honor my D&O legal expense indemnification.

So here he's claiming that he wanted the Robinhood shares to be available to FTX creditors, even as he's previously made a motion to claim them as his own.

I always have to write a novel on HN. This is a very commmon cross country situation where I live: let's say I can't pass a car due to road conditions where the car's speed varies between 70 and 75 mph and my desired speed is 75mph. I know in 5 to 10 miles there will be a 1 or 2 mile passing lane I can use. In order to eventually pass that car I need to stick to within 150-250 feet of that vehicle so I can make use of the passing lane. If I just "drive slow" not only am I not going to be able to pass the car driving erratically, no one behind me is going to be able to either until the next passing lane in 10-20 miles.

ChatGPT helped me find a WooCommerce XSS hole
We have a WooCommerce shop and recently hired a developer off Fiverr to write a plugin which adds extra functionality to our shop, allowing customers to write a note next to their orders when they are logged into the ‘My Account’ section of the website.

In return, the admin within the admin orders screen (WooCommerce->Orders) can see these customer notes and also reply to them. These notes show within a new column.

It’s a cool little plugin.

Initially I thought the code was fine, but until I studied it more (I’m rather cautious) I wasn’t going to make it live.

I thought I’d let ChatGPT take a look at it:

“You are now an infosec specialist. Look at the following code and tell me what’s wrong with it”.

ChatGPT pointed me to missing sanitisation checks on the form input where users type messages…

I verified this logging into the site as a customer, placing an order, heading to ‘My Account’ and writing within the note box a script to simply pop up a alert box saying “XSS”… (not very creative). I then hit send.

On the admin side, I refreshed the Orders screen and boom - an alert box opens.

100% XSS attack success.

So thanks to ChatGPT, I managed to find and remedy poor sanitation checks on user supplied input.

I went back to Fiverr and showed the coder screenshots of the XSS attack on the admin screen of our site. Now we are in an argument because he refuses to see why it’s such a big deal and that it’s only text being shown (I think he is referring to the “XSS” which pops up).

No matter how much explaining I give, this Fiverr coder cannot accept that user injected JavaScript on our ADMIN ORDERS screen is a massive gaping security issue.

Am I being over-dramatic here? He says with his 10 years coding, he knows better than me. What worries me is that this guy is a top rated Woocommerce coder.

Am I living on another planet or is he?
This is helpful, thank you.

I find it almost deliciously ironic that we research and development engineers in the field of computer science have expertly uncovered and deployed exactly the tools needed to flood our own systems and overwhelm our ability to continue doing the processes we depended on to create this situation in the first place.

It's like we've reached a fixed point, global minima for academic ability as a system. You could almost argue it's inevitable. Any system that looks to find abstractions in everything and generalize at all costs will ultimately learn to automate itself into obscurity.

Perhaps all that's left now is to critique everything and cry ourselves to sleep at night? I jest!

But it does seem immensely tiresome and deters "real science".
I can't really agree with that.

Any investment is supposed to have a return that exceeds inflation or some other reasonable index, eventually in the eyes of some kind of reasonable investor.

If it doesn't meet that criteria then it is more likely a social phenomenon interchangeable with scam instead of a valid investment, i.e. a pump and dump OTC stock is an investment being involved in a scam if it has acquired actual rights or business that have a small probability of paying off significantly better than inflation that's not easy to disprove with basic research. It is a pure scam if the underlying company is only on paper or generally incapable of actually doing anything it claims because it was created or is pumped with just enough cash to continue to operate purely for the purpose of having a stock but is incapable of ever making a real profit.

Some coins may be different than what I described as a scam, but if you accept that only holding value remains as a probable use of BTC then any suggestion of it as a valid investment or holder of value is a scam.
Similar story here. Seems silly, maybe, but I credit more of my ability to write a college-quality passage or short paper, by the time I graduated high school, more to... way too much time spent posting on Slashdot, of all places, as a kid, than to school. Helps when you don't have to pad your writing to hit a page count, and can just get straight to the point :-) Went into college with fewer bad high-school-induced writing habits than others usually have. As soon as I figured out the professors wanted my Slashdot-writing, not my shitty high school essay writing, it was smooth sailing.

I use hard fail, because all of the problems described in the article are implementation (checking if mail from and from: are on the same domain/subdomain) and idiocy (I've seen people forwarding mail to Google workspace hosted stuff by their own Mx without stripping or rewriting headers) problems.

The second one is really dumb, and results in 99.999% of my dmarc reports rather than actual forged emails.

All of these are solvable by anyone with a basic understanding of mail server operation.

Soft fail is also pointless, if you can't manage SPF records then you have no business emitting mail, pay a competent professional.

Agree entirely. I've argued (in recent threads) that Mastodon, just like Email, is not meaningfully Federated because ignoring this problem is what caused Email to be not meaningfully Federated. "Meaningfully Federated" as in, Email encourages centralization.

Technically it depends on the levelized cost of hydrogen, which encompasses capex, opex, and a slew of other relevant inputs. Similar "levelized cost" formulas are used throughout the utility sector to make these kinds of decisions; what makes green hydrogen unique is simply that it is undergoing a spike in research and development right now that is drastically changing some of the inputs to the LCOH equation.
