You forget the applications this would have. Every fusion reactor we have, even ITER, would easily fit into an aircraft carrier. The W7-X can fit in a super-yacht sized vessel, and give it enough power to fly to the moon (not in a convenient/usable form, but certainly enough).

And yeah, so can a nuclear reactor of course, but if it manages to blow up halfway it would poison half the earth. Yet fusion reactors are safe.

What if we told NASA engineers they can use a gigawatt of power to drive ion engines?

The applications of this kind of power go far beyond keeping apartments warm.
Are you saying you’d be more likely to throw things away than recycle them because it’s possible that rather than being recycled they will be reused?
> It runs Android 12 and will be supported for three years of monthly security updates and two major Android version upgrades.

And that's why I stick to iPhones for long-lasting devices, those two major versions are a joke. Apple has the crown with seven on the iPhone 6S. When will someone make Android phones other than Pixels with non-abysmal software support? Yes, I know you can install alternate ROMs on your phone, but this is not what the general public does, especially with a phone at this price point. The average joe will definitely change his phone after three years when they cannot install whatsapp or messenger or their banking app anymore.

That said, kudos to Nokia for entering this market, I genuinely hope it will be profitable enough for them to keep it up!
Accounting filing taxes and managing payroll is "the work".

Accounting having meetings about which tax software to use this year is "not the work, but is planning how to do the work"

HR making job listings and filtering candidates is "the work"

HR having meetings about how to navigate a change to remote hiring is "not the work, but is planning how to do the work"

My point is that if you have the meeting but don't actually execute on anything, you haven't actually done any work.

And meetings that don't result in anything you can execute on are absolutely outside the realm of work altogether.
If I own a company where (unbeknownst to me) some function has been hopelessly understaffed to the point they can no longer successfully complete all their tasks, a good thing that could happen is that eventually they do fail at their task and the subsequent investigation into why that happened reveals that they are understaffed and overworked. We can then either allocate more resources or reduce their workload so their tasks become more sustainable. The best way to fix it would be to have good enough communication at all levels that there are no such situations in the first place, but humans are imperfect and mistakes happen.

The last thing I would want is for some "heroic" employee to paper over the gaps until they eventually burn out or leave, after which the company will have a huge problem. All the domain knowledge has been concentrating in that one employee and now that they are gone we have lost that knowledge and will need to rebuild it, probably at great cost if it can be done at all. Like you say, if I built my own company with many years of sweat and tears then I am don't want to let easily preventable issues to have such impact.

As to the first few paragraphs of your post: there are many ways to make employees feel appreciated without also making them into a single point of failure for the entire company.

I am in a position at $dayjob where I have been mandated to find savings wherever possible. Currently a Google workspace company, I absolutely loathe Microsoft's offerings but after doing my due diligence there is no way I can avoid recommending migration. The pricing is just too good even with the warts, and the extra features are things we already need.

Fuck teams, though. I will leave this company before migrating Slack into teams. Actively recommending that product is nothing short of professional negligence.
Well sure, but that’s still causality.
That's my point exactly. For some industries/companies, a 'bonus' is actually de-facto 'regular' compensation, same as stock.
I'm not sure about exact ratios, but in general society appears to agree that collective harm is worse. For example, the UK had 'Pals battalions' in WW1, and stopped when they realised that you could end up with whole villages losing all their young men in a single day. The damage to society from this tactic was too high, even if the camaraderie was short term better and the recruitment statistics were aided. If you wanted to learn more about why society cares more about collective death, I'd advise you start by researching topics like Pals battalions, on which plenty of research has no doubt been done.
The Nokia website only states 2 years of OS updates - so its e-waste from the beginning. What a joke

My guess is that messaging simplicity won out over precision. “Recycle your clothing” is a much clearer message than “give us your clothing and we will evaluate whether it’s condition and materials better suggest reuse elsewhere, or partial or full recycling”.
This is potentially illegal hacking by the letter of the law. You can have a lawyer send a restraining order, and if they don't fix this take it to court. Of course they will then be forced to in turn sue Microsoft, who may discover the court orders all auth turned off until they can fix this.
Hi! I can’t help but see a big similarity to the JVM, both in terms of design goals and the semantics of the byte codes - only “not having dynamic linking” being an exception.

Could you expand on what you don’t find sufficient in JVM byte code, when it is arguably one of the best platform for backwards compatibility, has easy support for bringing up a canvas and start painting, etc.

Also agree.

But none of this detracts from ChatGPT's value or incredible power.

It just means that it will also cause many problems. Maybe once you net everything out the balance sheet is negative. I think you could make that argument for social media, for example. But the point is moot, because it's here, and its influence is only beginning.
5 years for parts is better than nothing but its still a lot of e-waste. Ideally given screens and ports and batteries are something that have been around for decades and will be around for decades more in similar ways it would be nice to extend this out longer. With progress on CPUs/GPUs slowing we do need to start to consider much longer usable life times for computer products and having obsolence built in at 5 years when a consumable like the battery fails isn't OK.

OS updates also very short so this phone is quickly going to end up on LineageOS.
Honestly, because its something that should be a prerequisite for starting the degree program in the same way basic algebra is a prerequisite. Likewise, not knowing you need to know this stuff is a sign that you are probably not at the point where you should even be able to have declared the major. The fact that colleges allow this at all is doing a disservice to students, many of whom will go on to permanently damage their academic records.

Yes, it's confusing that the UI doesn't highlight that "Jeff's MSA" and "Jeff's MSA at This School" are different accounts when it makes statements about the school owning the account. By adding him, the school set up a "Jeff at This School" account (a unique ID inside their Azure Active Directory) which Jeff can access using his MSA account. They didn't take any ownership over his MSA, but they do control the data for his school account (i.e. anything he creates in their Azure Portal, SharePoint, etc.)

And then Jeff is confused about the state of his account. Keep in mind that he's using a developer tool (the Azure portal) and account federation is not a beginner-level feature of Azure AD. There are sharp edges. He just jumped to a lot of conclusions and wow the Fud level on this comments thread is off the charts.

I know this because I set up an OAuth2 based web portal for my friends to access my Minecraft server using Azure AD B2C and by god the hardest part was figuring out how to explain the login experience to users, and disable the secondary 2FA requirements for MSA/Gmail users (because I know my friends are smart enough to use 2FA)
Right. That… seems like causality to me.

I have no idea where this conversation is going. Lobbying is not bribing, and even if one were to assume lobbying is effectively bribing, expressing one’s opinion in a newsletter is certainly not bribing, so you are going to have to help connect some dots.

Indeed, the book itself is not going to be a current source on web APIs. However, the section about the history of the <img> element is still interesting.

As the tweet which was shared here today mentions, it's now the 30th anniversary of this announcement by Andreessen, but I thought the content here had more depth than the previously-shared tweet, as a meditation on the formation of standards in the wild west web. I specifically liked this assertion by the author (after visiting all the proposed alternatives):

> But none of this answers the original question: why do we have an <img> element? Why not an <icon> element? Or an <include> element? Why not a hyperlink with an include attribute, or some combination of rel values? Why an <img> element? Quite simply, because Marc Andreessen shipped one, and shipping code wins

That’s explicitly not what you’re asking. You quite literally asked what this implies about Buddhism.

Frankly you’ve already “snuck in” the caveat in your comment above: “you have to question the foundations of the church if it happens regularly.”

Sure! Do we have evidence this happens regularly among Buddhist monks? As of now this just seems like an internet tirade based on nothing but a curious event.
I have no problem with the shoes being reused, neither does anyone else apparently. I have a big problem with corporations lying, which lies are not mitigated by a beneficial outcome.

This is the problem with utilitarianism; it has no red lines. You can try to be utilitarian and think you're only concerned with outcomes, but the reality is that foresight and perception are highly limited. In practice people assume the shoes were being recycled until they hear different, then appraise the actual outcome in some utilitarian calculus; the ends are actually OK, so that validates (or at least excuses) the deceptive means. After all, one can rationalize, without the promise of recycling the shoes might never have become available for reuse and would have ended up in landfill or rotting away in someone's basement.

But this is vulnerable to all sorts of abuses. Being completely results oriented is only as good as your ability to accurately appraise the results. And if it turns out the outcomes are awful, utilitarians often retreat into 'we'll do better next time'. As a result, the utilitarian ethos tends to turn a blind eye to reports of problems until the outcomes are known, which opens the doors wide to fraudsters and scammers, from the petty to the political. Utilitarians reason that people are bad at making decisions and need to be incentivized into the creation of good outcomes; and utilitarians are themselves incentivized by this idea of a rosy meta-outcome to not question the premises or means of any given proposal.
Upvoted because someone is publicly defending cryptocurrency on HN. I appreciate your bravery. You are right on those points.

The AI take has some valid criticisms but overall is the wrong assessment. People can use it to make spam, sure, but they can also use it for a thousand other things. To generate pretty much any type of text content. The only way that is not useful is if you just don't place value on natural language at all. Its a pretty important part of our world. But beyond that it can be used to create a natural language interface to many types of systems that would otherwise need to be programmed by a person.
It's marketing, "look at this powerful thing we created, let's make sure it doesn't get into the wrong hands!".
I wonder what they would have seen if they'd put the trackers into shoes that were unusable, instead of ones that someone might want to wear?
Thank you for making the point about accreditation, it's sort of a pet peeve of mine. I taught "intro to C++" last year at the Harrisburg campus of PSU. The students were a mix of non-CS majors who didn't know what a file was, a handful of students who already knew how to program and a bunch in the middle.

Re: accreditation... the admin is very reluctant to change anything about the courses. Even specific textbooks had to be recommended (I was warned for suggesting in the syllabus that the textbook wasn't needed).
Seemed a little more strict than teaching mathematics, which I did in graduate school.

Re: kids these days... a significant portion didn't understand the concept of a file. I blame apps and the cloud (funny because I now work in cloud storage). I ended up writing my own pre-cursor doc to the "missing semester". It was challenge to get a student from not understanding the filesystem to having some sort of understanding of linear search and pointers. (If you're interested: https://www.dropbox.com/s/jar1r0l5vdgspcl/basics.pdf?dl=0)

I tried to stress, especially to the non-majors, that this "missing" stuff was perhaps the most important thing they could learn. That, and how to properly google/search for things. I would experiment and try to re-word homework questions so that interesting StackOverflow answers appeared in search results.
There’s a struggling developer on my team and this course covers everything he is having trouble with.

Writing performant code? He does a fine job.

Setting up an environment, navigating a couple terminals and getting code into revision control? He is completely lost. Someone basically has to do it for him.

I’m going to send this course material to his manager* and hopefully a few weeks from now the team stress levels will be greatly reduced.

*yes, company culture dictates that it would not be appropriate for me to flat out say to him “dude you suck and here’s a way to be better”.

It's the oems fault in this case. And they have no excuse. Google has modified the architecture of Android to make it possible for oems to update as quickly as possible, as well as all of the previous efforts to enable updating user-facing features without updating the OS. But it's all still a kludge compared to iOS.

The bottom line is I don't think this is solvable with technology. Google should have gotten much tougher with OEMs once Android got widely accepted.
I don’t live in other societies so I don’t know. What I do know is that America celebrates this sort of thing and calls it “hustle”.
Passive income strikes again. Internet scraping, content farms, "low content" books, and now AI-generated crap stuffing up any channel that pays out real cash or can support money making "side hustles" elsewhere.

It's very likely a not insignificant number of HN accounts are using this technology as an experiment or for SEO/marketing funnels.
93kg to 78kg, 180 cm. Did not look fat, but my face got round and belly was forming. Haven't seen my abs for years and years by then. Surprisingly, 80 kg was like no abs at all and 77.8kg was a 4-pack already.

I wrote earlier that reforming my diet to protein-centric, 1800-2000cal a day + 15k steps walking + some lightweight kettlebell work was enough to get things going. I used myfitnespal, really useful.

It wasn't too hard, to be honest, as I am relatively used to training. For some ppl even walking 10k a day is a challenge.
I know who they were. I don’t understand how they could screw things up so badly, given their backgrounds in X11 development.

It's a hit or miss with them... my old Nokia 6.1 (ditto HMD) came with no option to unlock the bootloader.

No, it doesn't make a difference what kind of work you are doing.

At some point your meetings have to result in some kind of action taken. The action is the work.

You can have 100 meetings planning an event but if you never actually have the event, have you actually done any work?

The work is actually booking the venue, finding the staff for the event, setting up the decor, inviting the guests, selling the tickets, hiring catering, scheduling the talks or speeches, any of the other stuff.

Work actually materializes something.

Meetings, at best, materialize a plan for how to do the work. Often they don't even do that.
I had the worst customer support by Nokia. Purchased a Nokia 7 Plus in another country. The phone had a design issue which resulted in loose USB C port. Many people reported the same problem online. When I was back in the US, I tried reaching out to Nokia support and they literally said their repair center won’t even accept my phone for repair because I had purchased it in another country!

Third party repair shops told me it takes $100 to fix the USB C port, almost 1/3 the phone price. Needless to say I didn’t do that and the phone died shortly after only because it couldn’t get charged anymore. Switched to other brands and will never buy Nokia again.
Security updates are a must. Without them it's not a usable device

Also Pixels usually gets less official OS iterations than iPhones.

Only nice thing on Android is the aftermarket ROMs since it's AOSP. Sadly from my experience the aftermarket ROMs for newer OS iterations arent polished or miss features that the OEM roms had.

HN title dates refer to the date of the article, not the event it covers. A 2019 article about an event on earth in 4000BC would still get (2019).

But please do ignore the people confusing the delay in seeing distant events with relativistic simultaneity. It definitely did happen already in our reference frame. Just think of all astronomical events as being implicitly timestamped by observation time, not actual time. After all, distance is hard to measure in space, which means observation time is the more solid reference point.

> result is that it uses the kids PIN to authenticate despite requesting the adult's PIN

That's been a thing for a long time. I hit it when trying to share games with child accounts. IIRC, the high level process was:

- Set up child computer with a child account.
- Add parent account as family member on child computer.
- Set up a PIN for the parent account on the child computer.
- On the child OS account, open the Windows Store and log in as the parent.
- Log back in to the Windows Store using the child account.

At that point when the child tries to buy something via the Windows Store it should be asking for the parent's PIN, but accepts the child PIN. As far as I could tell it was authenticating the parent account with the child's PIN.

When I ran into the issue, I could buy anything I wanted with the child PIN and it bypassed all restrictions.

I was so surprised by the way it worked that I spent an entire afternoon testing it. I got a prepaid credit card, set up fresh MS accounts for the parent + child, set up a clean OS install, and recorded everything using VirtualBox by using the on-screen keyboard to show the PINs.

At the time there was a bug in VirtualBox's video recording that caused it to record random garbage and I got so frustrated that I set it aside and never went back to it.

It seems like an auth bypass issue to me and it's been a problem for over 7 years. It's been around so long it's even made it's way from an unofficial blog into official MS docs [1]:

> As of Dec 25 2015, there seems to be a bug in the Windows Store sign in process as it may ask for your PIN code but it actually wants your family member’s PIN code. That is, at least at the time of this writing, use the PIN of the signed in family member even though it asks for your PIN!
