OK. Question about this.

Microplastics have measurable negative effects on mammalian brains. That's been shown recently.

I've never microwaved or cooked anything in plastic, and I've yelled at people who do since the 90s.

Unfortunately, I break my own teeth a lot. I've shattered three of them in my sleep. It's not fun to wake up to a giant cracking sound in your head, realize your nerve is exposed, swallow part of a tooth and need immediate dental surgery.

I started using over-the-counter night guards, which I chewed through like a fucking rabbit, little pieces of plastic all over. Finally, recently, I just paid for a "permanent" night guard.

First of all, the way this is done now is amazing. It's a 3D scan of your teeth using a tiny camera wand, and the model is built in full color directly on the screen; I even pointed out to the dental tech, on the model, a red spot where a tortilla chip had wounded me the previous week.

So they shipped me this perfect molded night guard which fits my upper teeth incredibly well, and feels like a gummy on the upper side. On the lower side, though, it has a harder shell and still takes the impact of my lower teeth. And after a few months, it's already starting to fray on the bottom.

With both these things, I have no idea what's in them. PFAS? How much of this shit am I swallowing? Wearing it all night, every night, I wonder what the hell it's leaching into my brain. I don't think there are any real regulations on what they put into them, and they're clearly extraordinary mixes of different plastics.
> As the AI improves over time, it progressively becomes much better at these things than their employees.

People looooooooooooove speculating about things that are nowhere near happening.

It's more fun the more distant and baseless it gets, but it's also more useless.

As usual, I invite you to bookmark this post and make fun of me in 5-10 years if I'm wrong. I'm not that interested in the latest fashionable scaling argument for imminent ASI, or whatever people are saying at the moment.
I don't have a view in which rebuild they saw bad-faith action from; but I have doubts something has changed at Oracle.
Man these aren't even half bad, compared to many of the local facebook market listings I see almost daily.
I think the 2017 ones would be the old ones. I'm not sure when the change to the case happened. I'm talking about the current 14" ones with the more rounded corners vs the version that was more folio like.

>the two most-recent Legend of Zelda games are the two best that have ever been made.

Idk man, I glanced at /truezelda the other day and it seems like TotK has ruined BOTW for people. I was already disenchanted about 20 hours into BOTW, climbing yet another green hill to see another green hill with the same enemies as the last hill. I did beat the game with 70 or 80 shrines. I dread shrines.

I admittedly played every zelda, despite ragging on them. I am said IP fan.

I just want a 3D Zelda game with interesting biomes, multiple enemy types, fun puzzles, etc...

We got a open world rpg with Zelda skinned on it. It would be nice to get a classic 3D Zelda game and call this one something else.

I have doubts BotW would have gotten great reviews if it was released as an xbox game with different characters.
I must be out of the loop: I never knew that Goodreads mattered at all. I don't know anybody who uses it.

I understand fake reviews in Amazon are a problem: if I'm shopping there, I do look at the reviews, especially bad reviews to see if there is anything wrong with the product. I will disregard reviews that don't make sense and only pay attention to things that matter to me, but it's possible that I'll be influenced by review bombing... I'm only human after all.

But Goodreads? Who cares either way?
Lots of English speakers consider "could of" to be acceptable, and have similarly done so for a few decades now. That doesn't make them right ;-)
Not a fan of the police from either a performance or ethics standpoint, but it's harder to make a case in the USA. There are a ton of cases where there's no arrest, despite some evidence.
Apple’s market cap passes $3T
If this worked I would like it, but I think it’s impossible to automate and validate. So I only imagine an implementation being worse than nothing as mods tried to arbitrarily approve items.

I think this would make people who like specific books be willing to spend time moderating and they would reject negative reviews so everything would be 5 stars.
But OOT was a AAA title already, and there were already several wildly successful Zelda games before OOT too. There's so many reasons why Zelda is, if anything, a counterexample to this phenomenon.
But your father benefited from being part of a majority group who had its culture imposed on others or at least wasn’t suppressed itself. The elites and people who wrote laws were largely from the larger group of white people. Yes there is economic differences, but this is true for any society the elites are generally wealthy. But your father would benefit from or at least not be impeded by this white cultural dominance that was imposed.

Ask HN: Is there a list of non-monetised, non-closed-ecosystem websites?
I'm old and I have rose-tinted glasses for the good old days of the internet where everyone just made sites for fun rather than as "side hustles". Sites which didn't have monetisation or adverts or analytics gubbins all bundled in or blogs which aren't hosted on closed ecosystems like medium or substack etc. Is there a good source for finding these rare spaces again?
In "Hunter: The Strange and Savage Life of Hunter S. Thompson", it's made very clear that Hunter did _not_ write while he was sober. An excerpt of his daily schedule -

9:00(pm) starts snorting cocaine seriously

10:00 drops acid

11:00 Chartreuse, cocaine, grass

11:30 cocaine, etc, etc.

12:00 midnight, Hunter S. Thompson is ready to write

12:05-6:00 a.m. Chartreuse, cocaine, grass, Chivas, coffee, Heineken, clove cigarettes, grapefruit, Dunhills, orange juice, gin, continuous pornographic movies.
> making it a major life decision to use drugs instead of a daily decision

You basically spell it out yourself. Making it legal and accepted to use drugs makes more people use it. If more people use it there will be more drugs being sold.

People think that by making it legal the drug dealers will go away (and all other drug related problems) and serious companies will take over. But this is very unlikely so as the illegal sellers will always be able to undercut the legal sellers on price as well as service (24/7 etc). Same with legal producers vs illegal producers etc.

In addition, making it legal and thus having more people use drugs increases those side effects as well (such as you say "waste a day of my life doing drugs" or maybe waste your whole life or your spouses life or your kids life).

> I've never purchased a piece of tuperware that said it would release microplastics into the food if I put it in the microwave.

One thing to be skeptical or open minded or whatever but this statement is just stunningly naive. That you would only consider it if the company selling it tell you that. There is a thing called using your brain to come to independent conclusions. I'm probably just pissing into the wind here because I realize the current discourse it that you must listen to your betters and believe only the experts or whatever.
That video has earned me a grand total of $500. And most of that earning happened a couple years ago. I have never run AWX for any of my own projects (or deployed it for any clients), so I have not materially benefitted from it in that way either.

I can guarantee you that video and my short chapter on AWX in my book have earned Red Hat many, many multiples of that through companies adopting an AAP subscription.

I also literally built the AWX Operator that Red Hat is still maintaining to this day: https://github.com/ansible/awx-operator/graphs/contributors

Nvidia isn't irrational. ML and associated technologies will be pervasive ans Nvidia dominates the space. Their chips will be ubiquitous, in your microwave.

That doesn't make these ideas good, but mobile apps are frequently a bad idea and everyone still makes one.
Yeah totally, I said one said “one reason”. :) I lived in Brazil for a while, and definitely saw that gangs can get plenty big and plenty violent with plenty of guns even just catering to the domestic drug market and without easy gun imports.

But I also remember reading about the US$100,000,000 bribe allegedly paid to Pena Nieto in 2012. Like, damn, it’s gotta be hard to fight corruption in a middle-income country when the criminals have that kind of cash to throw around.

I’m sorry, but this line of reasoning is so utterly insane that I can no longer continue to engage.
It doesn't seem so good and I can't imagine it's using anything sophisticated to make recommendations. What would be great is if it copied Netflix's Cinematch of yore and did SVD on a giant matrix of what you're liked/disliked and what others who have read the same books have liked/disliked.

Despite the fact that we were asked what our concerns were and shared them 12 days ago, we haven't received ANY response from them after that, complete silence for almost two weeks and counting. So it appears that the reddit admins are not acting in good faith and aren't discussing this with us. They are relying only on vaguely worded threats.

Wow.

It sure looks unmaintained!

Here are my problems with Simple SMS that are fixed in QKSMS:

1) Long delay updating conversation after receiving a message (>5s).

2) Date sorting broken (old messages appearing at top of queue for no reason).

3) "Failed to send" sms users experience is bad (still testing on qk).

4) MMS sender ID almost always wrong (all messages in group MMS appear to be from the same person until you examine details).

5) Sending MMS with attachment/image always fails without verbose error (still testing qk)

This is pretty abysmal. Do I use the unmaintained app that fixes 3-5 of these issues, or the apparently actively developed one with all the warts? I guess this is the state of basic phone functionality in vendor-free, google-free android.
Meh, I had a bunch of Adobe shares bought at $24 and I sold them at $85 (didn't need the money). They were $600 4 years later.

I think you’re pulling your punches. It sounds like you already know that college diversity is a red herring.

College populations are a window into the staggering inequality of our society. Shallow as we Americans are, many of us will be content if we can just apply a little window dressing and create some stories to make ourselves feel better. (Be warned, this strategy has now entered many workplaces.)

People with jobs like university president and CEO are stuck in a bind - most can’t stick their neck out. Unfortunately there’s no reasoning with a person whose job depends on not conceding their argument.

I took it to mean "these are bad photographs because they fulfil their purpose (selling houses) badly". That covers poor photographs AND poor properties. I’d argue the agents are also poor (in the not-good-at-the-job sense) themselves, as a result. A photograph can be technically perfect and still bad.
To be clear, I did not write my comment to discredit the entire system. B-Corp is certification is the best thing we have to make these decisions a little easier on the consumer.

I made the comment to make people aware that it should still be looked at with caution, as corporations are going to try to game the system.

I found a heap of their magazines from the 60’s and 70’s in the recycling at my university, and boy are they a good read. I think one reason they used to be so good (speculating) was that the internet didn’t exist. It was a medium where you could regularly learn out about distant things like peculiar mountain goats or an arctic tribe and get a firsthand report of it. Now there’s no shortage of interesting things like that to read, so maybe it’s not a viable strategy for a print magazine.
There's a million other opportunities you missed because you can't see into the future.

Same for everybody else. Don't worry about it.

Simplicity. Atom/RSS can perfectly be a static file (it doesn't even need internet connectivity, an Atom file can be passed around on a usb key with 100% of functionality). ActivityPub requires a live server with computation. Think about the step it requires for every website and every account and every service to have an atom feed vs an activitypub actor.

Friends run https://mappery.org/ which is just photos of "maps in the wild". All user contributed. They have a backlog of several months of photos. Once you have enough followers you get a lot of submissions.

https://plaintextoffenders.com/ stopped after 10 years and 5880 posts which is more than one post per day, all user submissions.
Having the choice for advanced users is a plus but I think having to choose is a big negative.
It's more the captions than the photos. E.g., the one that says "this is where the magic fails to happen", under a drab bedroom with a double bed, is a fairly accurate picture of the current state of that room. It also has a pillow on the bed that says "the best grandma in the world". Not exactly the most exciting thing, making the caption a bit cringy. Unless grandma is a failed witch.
See also swimming. A lot of people, myself included, know how to “swim” freestyle. But the difference in technique between trained and untrained is stark if you know what to look for.

It takes a lot of effort to unlearn the improper technique and learn what to do. At the same time, it’s difficult doing longer distances because of muscle memory.
Samsung is terrible, do not buy ever. They are the Apple of Android, big marketing budget, little care about performance or security.

Writing fantasy should require what you write to be good, or at least entertaining, to sell; right? But bad fiction sells almost as well as good. You just need to follow a formula to put together the rudiments of something functional, and then find somebody who's good at selling. Slap a good cover on it, buy a good blurb, and get it in the grocery store.

Nothing personal, but you are who I'm talking about when I say nerds who just like to build toys in the sandbox. I don't think you intend on improving technology, or making a better product, as much as chasing that tickled feeling of sitting and writing. It's just amazing to me that people still get paid very well for effectively writing a copy of a copy of a book, while most fiction writers barely scrape by. You'd think the people paying us would just use the last book and not pay you to write it again, or demand it be better. But we're all fine with photocopied monotony.
The RSS 2.0 spec has a horrible flaw:

https://www.rssboard.org/rss-2-0-1-rv-6#hrelementsOfLtitemgt

> An item may also be complete in itself, if so, the description contains the text (entity-encoded HTML is allowed; see examples)

Note "is allowed", not "is required". This caused SO MANY problems back in the day, because the spec didn't clarify if you should or should not include HTML in that element - and there was no way of telling, when parsing a feed, if the author was in the "entity-encoded HTML" or "YOLO and just stick plain text in there" camp.

IIRC, Atom came about precisely because the RSS specifications didn't provide the level of detail needed for a spec to be truly interoperable.
What do you define as the 'warrior class'?
We use plastic containers largely for convenience. They're durable, malleable, and don't shatter like glass. They're also lighter and thinner, and cheaper. This makes them useful for things like takeout containers or any situation where you need to transport food.

Borosilicate is more durable than regular glass. It's generally less prone to shattering, and it's also more tolerant of rapid temperature changes.

As far as microplastics go, I don't think it's any better than regular glass, but its properties do make it more suitable for the things we may want to replace plastic for.
Definitely. I have never, ever microwaved (or otherwise heated) food in plastic. My intuition just screams that it's disgusting and stupid and I honestly can't understand how people can do this.

I don't even store cold food in plastic containers any more because I found out you can buy glass ones. They are so much more convenient and clean.
Isn't it like that everywhere? It's been this way everywhere I've ever lived.
