Your point about policy is good, but if he is correct then that would mean geoengineering policies would become more attractive than lowering emissions (since lowering emissions would have a limited effect and is very hard).

I agree with the BS asymmetry. I don’t put this article in that category since he seems to have a clear hypothesis that explains the current record warming that is much higher than IPCC predictions. If the IPCC models are significantly wrong, this is important to know.

He has tried to contact climate scientists but he hasn’t got very far and I don’t think it’s because he’s schizo.

No worries about the tone, I understand the frustration. And to be clear, I don’t want more science per-se, but I worry we might be doing bad science.
For ETH they can sue Vitalik Buterin, the rest of the Ethereum Co-Founders, and the Ethereum foundation. They are the issuers and majority of the ETH supply is there since the beginning.

Scalpel, Forceps, Bone Drill: Modern Medicine in Ancient Rome
You are making good points by looking at broader indexes HOWEVER note that my previous wages link was adjusted for overall inflation, which includes more than just groceries and rent, so if going by an even broader index, the wages HAVE kept up with inflation, although just barely. Still impressive for wages to do so well even with a very low unemployment rate and suffering through two major shocks (COVID-19 and the food/energy price shock of the Russian invasion of Ukraine) and the Fed’s increase in interest rates to keep inflation from spiraling out of control (due to those two spikes, plus the accumulated effects of years of monetary stimulus to recover from the Great Recession).

Overall I’d still say that between low unemployment and wage growth keeping up with inflation, we’re doing better than nearly any other time in history.
Not sure why this is downvoted, it's absolutely true.
I would characterize it as the article doesn't have anything overtly wrong with it, but it did make it easy to come away thinking this is revealing some sort of massive fundamental issue with everything, rather than what it is, which is the continuing process of tuning a highly successful theory down in the decimal points.

Whether or not you consider that to be part of their job is in the eyes of the reader.
In molecular biology, you are doing research that will affect people's health. Out of respect for people who will be diagnosed with illness, you choose nomenclature carefully.

We are unlikely to ever visit BEBOP. In short, it doesn't matter. But if we identified a very large impactor heading towards Earth, I suspect we might have a care in the naming instead of calling the asteroid something silly, such as "Butthead".[1]

Change-Data-Capture for TypeScript Devs
Lets say a date picker was not supported in html, I'd at least prefer they made one aggregating native buttons instead of from scratch with colored divs/whatever.
It's not enough to make such warrants illegal.

It must also be illegal for companies to sell this information to the government, or ideally to even store this data outside of devices controlled by the end user.
That doesn't work. The video URL is not in plain text in the HTML. They send you encrypted data and you have to decrypt it using javascript that they also send you. It is, therefore, an encryption measure, which is illegal to break under the DMCA
I think pretty much everyone is familiar with sitting this way, but terminology varies. When I was a kid everyone called it "Indian style", but that term has fallen out of favor. At my kids' schools they called it "cris-cross applesauce".
I've done this on a smaller, temporary scale and it wasn't for me. You end up spending a lot of your time planning, packing, unpacking and generally working around all the things you never have to think about when you just live where you want to live and do some traveling. Our life became meaningless chores that just ate away at all the interesting things we could be doing or wanted to be doing.
The developers themselves are every bit as authoritative on this topic while also not having been caught out lying. Given that, you'll forgive me if I choose not to put my chips with Reddit management.
I used DupeGuru (https://dupeguru.voltaicideas.net/) in the past but I'm not sure it's the best solution for you. Try it, it's open-source.
the eye surgery is obviously an example of a one time payment with a long term benefit. if he is able to generate income to solve more problems like that then he is indeed helping people.
I don't think I'd characterize some of those things as lying. Setting up a development environment is no different than setting up other kinds of software: you obtain the software, and follow instructions to get it up and running. There's no substitute for this, unless you're setting up an environment for someone else (eg, a student), in which case, they don't need to know about many of the details.
Who's being left in the cold? Other than people with chademo only cars, that is?

If you have a CCS1 car, you can buy an adapter and use the tesla app to charge at a supercharger. If you have an NACS car you can buy an adapter to use CCS1 chargers. Neither is great but nobody's getting cold unless they're unwilling to buy adapters.

The OP was talking about "which charger should I install at my house or business?" which is silly -- install a j1772 plugged L2 charger -- everyone with NACS car has an adapter.

CCS1 is a fast charging protocol / plug. If you were planning on starting a fast charging network, well, the cost and the plug and cord is 0.001% of the cost. So add a NACS and CCS1 cables to your kiosk and you're fine.

EA or other places will probably still add CCS1 plugs for the next 3+ year to new installs (all 300 of them) and you get access to tesla superchargers if you buy an adapter. If you manage to drive a CCS1 for 20 years it might be a problem but it's not an issue today.
Yes it goes on the stove and doesn’t have variable pressure settings

The whole point of the instant pot is those two features. Being able to tell it what I want to make, turn it on, and then just walk away and forget about it until I need it is the whole point of having an Instant pot
This started with a reference to a small group of Nazi flag waving protesters outside Disney World and an assumption that that group represents the population of Florida. After ironically confirming my comment about the small sizes of these neo-Nazis here in Florida with your own links trying to disprove my point (that was a really weird debate tactic BTW), you have now decided to expand this nazi group to all sorts of people you don’t agree with. Yes, if you move to Florida you might encounter someone who holds a different viewpoint than you. I suspect that to be the case everywhere though.

Florida is diverse and growing. I am sorry that bothers you, feel free to not move here if you feel you would be unhappy, we could certainly use one less car on the road.
YouTube ads are never the biggest income stream for a top YouTuber. It's much more than $54m.
Won't this get kinda boring after a little while? I guess I've been on enough business trips that constantly traveling to me seems stressful and boring. I liked looking forward to meeting coworkers though, so having some people like distant family or friends in these areas makes life more enjoyable. I guess I've also been somewhat forced/or I guess blessed to live in a different state for a while. You won't really get a good understanding of a place until you've lived there maybe 2-3 years and have driven all over and met different types of people in that culture. The first year I think is mostly adapting to the differences and handling culture shock if you move across the country.
I guess I would count as one of those people. I've never had a non-laptop computer (outside of office ) and I find it amazing for productivity.

I'm using one that has a 17 inch screen (with additional monitor at home) which I guess is bigger than average. With a window manager that doesn't waste space, I can fit pretty much everything in there.

I find that looking down strains my eyes less than staring at a monitor. I rarely use a mouse or the trackpad.

Laptop keyboards are amazing; I can reach all the function keys without ever moving my hands and it takes less force to press down each key. While most of the time I type without looking, when I do need to sneak a peek, the keyboard is close enough that I don't even need to move my sight.

And of course nothing beats the feeling of sitting on a tree stump and working in the middle of a forest.

I also use variant of incoming/outgoing, its very convenient.
I suspect the issue rarely is the language itself changing, but the tooling around it (in the JS case: bundlers, minifiers, polyfills etc.). I think JS/TS the language is good enough, it's really taking the code that's been written and making it usable on the frontend that breaks.
The difference is that games are a deliberate exercise in non-productivity. You are generally not trying to 'get something done' in a game except what the game itself is asking you to do.

When using a webpage, you generally are trying to 'get something done'.

Besides, games implementing their own widgets can be terrible for accessibility.

I disagree. Those companies were all made long after email was stable, but having used SendGrid I can say it's definitely not the best DX, and it is indeed tailored to marketing.
Maybe you are doing something wrong? I have installed countless Python packages using "pip install --user pkg-name" If something fucks up i just rm -rf ~/.local/lib/python3.11/site-packages and reinstall the package. I've stuck to this workflow for over ten years and the only major issue I have had with it was with TensorFlow which didn't support the latest Python version.

Nowadays, I have to add the flag "--break-system-packages" but the workflow still works as well as it ever did.
We've "convinced" you of the thing you came into this thread with. Or is this just a thinly veiled attempt at making others backtrack their words or apologize for impugning your integrity?

If you were truly concerned with "Science and Data", you would realize that vague, unverifiable anecdotes are only persuasive to those who are already persuaded. They are not a valid way to make a point.
I've observed that for the past 4.5+ billion years, the sole principle driver of the climate on our planet has been the million-earth sized nuclear reaction it's in orbit around.

That the past 100 years of cows farting would suddenly have infinitely greater impact strikes me as absurd, and meshes well with the decades of failed predictions I've observed its purveyors making.

That they will casually disregard, as entirely irrelevant, large-scale human deployments specifically targeted at changing the climate - that have succeeded in doing so - only supports this assessment.

Finally, asserting a "consensus" only by ignoring or mocking any and all dissenting views is utterly pathetic and not indicative of science. It's more indicative of field capture by industry, politics and profits.

Even the most cursory analysis of investment flows, or the personal investments of people promoting it and what they stand to personally gain from it (while taking private actions contradicting public claims) confirms this also.

That everything the field claims about the future is based on "modelling" (which is another word for "imagining"), really just cements the level of "science" we're dealing with here. No wonder their "models" always fail.

I'm not saying the climate isn't changing, and I'm not even saying we couldn't be causing it. I'm saying the current investigation into it is off-track, compromised, and historically incapable of coming up with any accuracy.

Ie, if China can successfully, and continually, modify the climate across their entire continent using a large-scale tech deployment, how is it reasonable to exclude it from theories on anthropogenic climate? It makes no sense.

(And if you aren't aware of China's weather modification programs, look them up. It's not "conspiracy theory", even CNN has reported on it.)

FlyteGPT: Chatbot for Flyte FAQs Powered by Langchain and Flyte
I'm currently a Python dev for a living, but I spend a portion of my personal time trying to get better at C/C++, and in my case, it's strictly about the potential for writing faster code. I'm interesting in getting into DSP stuff specifically, so it's 100% necessary if I want to do that, and I would also like to get my head wrapped around OpenCV for similarly creative reasons.

Python opened up the world of code to a lot more people, but there was a cost to that, and the real action as far as actual computer systems go is always gonna be at a much lower level, in much the same way that a lot of people can top up their fluids but most of us pay someone to change the oil.

I could actually totally see oil changes becoming completely robotic in the future, but we would first have to establish open standards for oil pans that all automakers adhered to.

The whole computers designing computers thing, outside of someone cracking cold fusion I don't think we'll ever have the juice for it. In my lifetime, a C-level programmer will never be out of work, but I suspect that the demand for Python programmers is going to slack off, while the supply continues to grow.
I can’t recommend it for most people. It’s a horrible “investment” by any sort of analysis. We barely break even and that’s only because we stay there during low season.

We also had to pay 30% down since it is considered a commercial property. But you buy it just like you would any other commercial unit through a bank. On top of that, we took a HELOC on what was our primary home to get the 30%, just as interest rates were rising. We rent our home out to our grown son and two of his friends that we have known forever.

The HELOC isn’t covered by either rental income and that only makes sense because it is offset by the state taxes we don’t pay.

The only time this makes sense for most people is if their primary home is paid off and as a vacation home and for retired snowbirders.

Also people do it to avoid taxes on real estate sales using a 1031 Exchange.

Even knowing what I know now, I wouldn’t do it under any other circumstances besides what we are doing now or as part of 1031 exchange if had taxable real estate capital gains.
How expensive is failing to reduce CO2 emissions? That's the current plan.
> Even if we stop everything the system inertia and its feedback loops will push the entire planet into a hot spot.

This sounds more like doomerism than science. Who can listen to this crap without wondering if the climate change believers aren't a little kookoo for cocopuffs?
That doesn't matter at all. First, there's always some obscure Linux tool with the same name, simply because Linux has a long history, and good names are the ones taken first, even when they're totally unrelated to their task (gnome, thunderbird, apt, to mention a few).

Second, the name will not confuse anybody. 99.99% of the target audience will not have heard of the linux tool, and the ones that have will not thing "zsync.com, I bet that's going to be a site about diff transfers optimized for network load".
I think cargo cult is an interesting way of thinking of intrinsic motivations of addiction, and useful as a personal tool to assist breaking addictive cycles, whereas Skinner is a more scientific view of external effects.

Did they intentionally name it after a widely used, well known programming framework[1], or did they want to guarantee, I dunno, that they will fly way, way under the radar? I thought it was bad form to name a new programming language 'Cedar', but at least the other Cedar isn't actively developed, unlike the other Mono.

You mean the Many-Worlds interpretation? That's not every choice, but every quantum measurement. And it's not necessarily an infinite number. And it's not a theory, but an interpretation. And it's actually very Occam's Razor-ish (at least that's what proponents claim), because it needs less postulates than the standard Copenhagen interpretation. The many worlds are a consequence, not a postulate.
Love is very intoxicating.
From a geostationary satellite you have 99.5% uptime over the course of a year, with most days having 24 hours of full power. Unlike ground solar you don't need batteries, long-distance wires, excess capacity, or demand management. Over 24 hours, a panel in orbit collects five times as much energy as it would on the ground.
Another aspect I would note is honesty. Because there is no long game, interactions are much more raw. A lot of social meta game like dogwhistling, virtue signaling, sockpuppeting largely loses its meaning and is jarringly obvious when someone brings it verbatim from other communities. The experience is closer to shooting shit with friends than a council meeting of HN or a talent show of Reddit.
Yes, women are vicious fighters but use different, and arguably more potent, weapons. A fist-fight with a man might leave you wounded and bleeding for a few days. A woman will leave you ostracized from your friends and family, possibly ending your career, for the rest of your life, often leading to your depression and suicide.

Society (especially now) will approves of a woman's destruction of her target, seeing it as a positive example of "female empowerment", independent of any other fact of the case other than gender. In other words, there is social pressure that encourages females to become domineering bullies. At the same time, causal misandry encourages this false idea that women are somehow excluded from a wide variety of the worst of human behavior, the same behaviors that are actively encouraged in women! This is in addition to the fact that women's anger, violence, sexual assault (especially against children), is very real and, I believe, wildly under-reported.
If we had unlimited money (which most monetarily sovereign governments do by the way) we'd be limited by real resources - the materials, the manufacturing capacity, the people that do the work. Long term strategic thinking is needed to direct what resources we have to where they are most needed for the long term goal.

That's a valid point.

The web is also pretty stable, but when you look at the past 10-15 years, there's been so much evolution around it.

Doing things like rounded borders or dark mode is still very difficult, especially when you take into consideration all the different email clients like Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo Mail, Superhuman, and HEY.

The web evolved, and now we don't hear too many complaints about having to design your website to look the same across all browsers as before. Unfortunately with email, this is still an open problem.

There are probably more Show HN launches involving email than any other product category.
I like the principle of this and have kind of done it myself previously, however I'm currently finding it's a _lot_ harder to consider blowing up your life when you have kids that are old enough to care.

I do not know why the IRS is still using ID.me, but Login.gov does now have identity verification [1], so the IRS cannot claim anymore that a lack of identify verification with Login.gov is the reason why they only allow ID.me. I did the Login.gov identity verification process in March and it was quick and streamlined. It only took about 15 minutes and required photos of my driver's license and some additional information. Afterwards, when you log in to Login.gov, at the top of the page is a green checkmark with the label "Verified Account" confirming that your identity has been verified by Login.gov.

I should also note that some news media [2] have reported that the IRS is almost ready to start using Login.gov. This article is from March, and obviously the IRS did not start using Login.gov in the time frame described in the article. Again, I do not know why the IRS is still using ID.me, but the justification keeps getting weaker and weaker in my opinion.
