I doubt I'm going to convince you of anything. But it is nonsensical to think that the position of the planets have any effect on people. You see a correlation in two data points and are extrapolating it, despite having no explanation as to why that would be the case. If you have an explanation as to why the position of Pluto would affect the development of technology, I would love to hear it.
It's funny how everyone framed this as US vs. EU. It really didn't have to be framed that way.
So the authors are disciples of a professor specialized in superconductor, their own Master and PhD were about superconductor, then they created a lab/company specifically for researching superconductor. This is contrary to my earlier belief that they were just normal chemists/physicists that happened to stumble upon an interesting material.

Unless they're lying through their teeth, it's hard to believe they would not recognize an actual SC when they see one.
This reads like a success story, I'm not sure your advice hits the target.

Because the browser manufacturers have their own centralized payment protocols (Google Pay, Apple Pay) that they would prefer you use so that they can surveil your habits and get a cut of the fees.

Apple Pay is definitely integrated into Safari.
> Because all the people I know who own a Tesla say it's the best car they've every owned

I only know three people who own Teslas, but all three have little positive to say about them, and one of them will tell you at length about how he regrets buying his if you let him.

It's for that reason, not my dislike of Musk, that if I were in the market for an EV I wouldn't even consider a Tesla.
> 2. "Terrible science." Again, get over yourselves. Just because the preprint doesn't match your taste specifically doesn't mean it's bad science. You can't satisfy everyone- there will ALWAYS be someone who complains about some missing measurement or plot they view as essential. Most of the time, the 'missing' component is directly related to their own work. In other words, people want to see what they understandd as being important to them, also reflected in other publications. That does not mean it's a valid criticism. It's nitpicking.

Not knowing the precise Tc for the material isn't nitpicking that is pretty basic ("above 400C" isn't a very precise measurement). Questioning if their graph showing the Meissner effect isn't really showing the Meissner effect isn't really some obscure criteria.

Bet we get results a whole lot quicker than that as well.
I read something about that years ago, and the thing that made it stand out was how binary it was. You could smoke for twenty years, then one day you get a tiny mote of some radioactive element stuck in your lung and all the sudden it's cancer time. Primarily people shouldn't smoke cigarettes, but it just seems like a cruel twist that they would fertilize the crops with something that does that.
How do you suggest paying for climate mitigation, carbon capture, or nuclear power? Those must be paid for by government since they aren't profitable. The rich have the money, and have benefited the most from carbon emissions.

How do you suggest reducing carbon emissions that aren't profitable? We are lucky that wind and solar cost less than other forms of energy, but at some point we will have to pay people to switch to electric cars and then make ICE cars illegal.

Dealing with climate change means everybody needs to stop producing carbon dioxide and pay to pump it back out of the atmosphere. Only government can do that.
I think think the problem is intrinsic. “Good UX” has to include “easy enrollment” and “some central authority can reset my password” and the failure of either means a user loses 100% of the function of the application.

Look at how end-to-end encryption of email has not caught on although it was possible in the late 1990s, the horror of gpg, or how the NSA gave up on nerfing encryption algorithms because people will always screw up key management. (Che Guevara might have lived to lead another revolution if he hadn’t misused his ‘unbreakable’ one-time pads.)
> Trying to take away someone's civil rights is fundamentally different from outlawing a crime.

Nitpick; anything that is outlawed is a crime. This is why I chose a crime as my example.

> Wanting someone to be a literal second-class citizen is, in fact, a negation of the validity of their identity. Revoking same-sex marriage is absolutely an effort to push the LGBTQ+ community back into the shadows; it is transparently the tip of the spear of a movement that seeks to roll back some of the biggest civil rights gains of the last few decades.

I agree, but comparing a supporter of some legislative lobby to genocide is pure hyperbole.

You're trivialising genocide when you claim that someone wanting to stop you doing what you do is the same as ethnic cleansing.

> That is what OP means when they say "don't want me to exist".

There is no wiggle room for interpretation there; "don't want those people to exist" has always meant pure genocide.

It's said for drama and for pure emotional impact, while trivialising real "don't want those people to exist" history.
Hahaha! Never thought I'd see BeverlyBot and Sorry I Dinged Your Car mentioned on HN.

Been listening to RBCP (The guy who does Snow Plow Show and Phone Losers of America) for a long time now. Great to throw on in the background for some laughs at the end of the day while reading.
If you want a job, it's probably going to be React. But for personal projects, I hear Svelte would be up your alley. SolidJS is another nice option if you want to get into JSX templating, and more into something like React hooks that actually makes sense and performs close to vanilla JS.

But recently (and maybe you're already familiar), a library called htmx started gaining popularity, which you might like. It doesn't require a build step, npm or node to use it. I'm using it with a Rust-based monolithic website to great success, but you can use it with any backend in any language you like.
> We are so used to being betrayed and hurt that we now accept it as normal. It started off innocuously enough, but now we are effectively being hurt on the regular. We have learned helplessness, and that will not end well.

That's not what a victim mentality (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victim_mentality) is. What you're describing is closer to learned helplessness (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learned_helplessness), which is different.

> Their past actions irreversibly tainted their reputation, and they are no longer worthy of our trust.

This is closer to something you might hear from someone with a victim mentality. I wouldn't go so far as to say that this is evidence of such, but certainly this rigidity of thought around being a victim to another's actions contributes to such.
I think in this case fear is a pretty rational response considering that police could rob, rape, or murder you and would likely face zero consequences for it even if it were all caught on camera.

> I’ll agree with you that Chrome really changed the web development experience with incredible tooling compared to what you could get back then but this had no impact on most users experience.

Yes, but guess what the developers started pushing onto their friends who asked for a browser? The one they were personally using.

Word-of-mouth is insanely powerful and FF alienated way too many of the key people.
I get the sarcasm, but I also run into many, many, many product-team-management and company-wide-infra-decision-making types that mandate concurrency when it is available, and slam it through regardless of the cost. With teams dominated by freshly-graduated-from-college engs. And loads of times that I've seen existing systems hit a performance bottleneck, and the solution was to relax consistency because it speeds up and the existing tests pass.

Putting a loaded gun within reach of millions of people is less safe than not doing that.
They must not consider it a trade secret, so they can earn good will, generate public contributions, and advertise their brand by sharing it.
Congress is always grandstanding but that doesn't mean they don't have a point:

"A copy of the contempt report asserts that Zuckerberg and Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, have "willfully refused" to comply in full with a congressional subpoena stemming from the panel's investigation into any _efforts by the executive branch to encourage social media companies to moderate content_ on digital platforms."

There's plenty of evidence that the government was doing that on Twitter -- it is a big deal when the government goes to private actors and gets them to censor people.

Sure, the GOP might be hypocrites about this but every single liberal should be lining up to say, "In this case they're right, and we'll hold them to the same standard when one of them is president."

The problem is that the Democrats are also hypocrites, both the politicians and their voters are _not_ liberal, and they like the idea of using the government to censor information they don't like.
Believe me, I'm all in favor of using heat pumps. I think it's silly the degree to which Europe as a whole relies on combustion heating, in a part of the world that doesn't get all that cold.

I just want to ensure that the electricity that powers those heat pumps doesn't get more expensive as a result of the shift away from nuclear and fossil fuels. There's some preliminary research to indicate that more renewable power in the grid results in lower wholesale prices[0], but the relationship isn't very strong, and it's likely that Europe soon will (if not already) meet the point of diminishing returns. After all, there are only so many places you can put wind turbines, solar panels, or dams.

PSA: They held the tips for a while to see if the creator signed up, and if not sent the crypto back to the user. If it even was the user's, they put up a pool of the stuff out of their own pocket to jumpstart the tipping service and the whole thing might just be over the allocation of that pool, I don't remember the specifics.

In any case no one lost their stuff, bad UX was critiqued and bad UX was fixed.
Nice! I like the focus on Postgres. Most ETL tools end up trying to build for a larger matrix of source and targets which limits using database specific features and optimizations. Is the CDC built primarily on top of the logical replication / logical decoding infrastructure in Postgres? If so, what are the limitations in that infrastructure which you'd like to see addressed in future Postgres versions?

Huh, 25k where I am, but in Canuck bucks.

Still, even 10k is better than 0k. And many small claims courts forbit compelled discovery. I paid $100, had no lawyer, wrote 2 pages of "what happened", served the paperwork by hand (and went back to the court and gave an affidavit to that effect), and ...

The other side "big corp" had a law firm, and several lawyers. I paid $100 and spent a few hours. The paid 50k to their lawyers, and we just talked on front of a judge.

In terms of "stick em in the eye" it's the way to go.
I think there's two really obvious points.

1. They're referring to the queueing itself. They're not saying "this will make some other thing fast" they're saying "this is fast at queueing".

2. Queuing is not the opposite of making things fast.
The Unsung Delight of a Well-Designed Endpaper

Events like the polar jet-stream split are a consequence of increased temperature, and their frequency increases with heat.

When the jet-stream splits, air from Sahara gets trapped between the now two or three streams, and cannot escape. This creates a heat dome that we can’t manipulate and change.

Amalgam can also mean, "A mixture or combination of different things" such as "an amalgam of musical genres" or "an amalgam of unsavory dog food flavors", which, since we aren't talking about mercury at all, nor are we talking about any form of dentistry, should have be evident and deducible from the context.

When you start consistently walking out of Oscar nominated or winning films I know immediately your opinion on films is probably not worth much.
It's rarely the case that there's only room for one player in a given market. Market segmentation is a real thing, for good reasons. If $BIGCO pivots to producing a product similar to yours, that doesn't have to mean "the end". I'd suggest everybody read The Discipline of Market Leaders for more on how to choose among different strategies and position yourself vis-a-vis competitors.

Of course the problem of fundamentally building on someone else's platform remains. This is why it's a good idea to start at least thinking about how to move your business onto another platform, from day zero. Of course there's a balance between investing time and money in building abstraction layers and evaluating other platforms and doing these different things, versus spending that time and money on immediate growth. But if one invests literally 0 in this situation, they can hardly expect much sympathy if the underlying platform gets yanked out from underneath them and kills their business.

If you can afford 2 weeks off for a round trip, you should really take at least a week in the country to arrive at to see it. Cruises are nice, but you don't see the culture of the places you go. Either fly back, or take more than a two weeks. I recommend fly back, the one way trip is a once in a lifetime thing, but the return trip seems like it would be repetitive (having taken several cruises, though none trans ocean)

Of course both Europe and North America are large continents with a lot more to see than you can do in a week, but few of us have the budget to be a world traveler for a few decades to see everything.

A travel authorization is not a visa

OF course it is, it's just a very accessible temporary one. Let's look at an uncontroversial definition of a visa (from Wikipedia): 'A visa is a conditional authorization granted by a polity to a foreigner that allows them to enter, remain within, or leave its territory.'

Just because you give things different labels doesn't make them actually different.
Your logic doesn't follow. Even if we entertain your (wildly baseless) assertions that substance use impairs your rational abilities to the point of muddying your ability to differentiate between right and wrong, it does not follow that that makes them wrong: plenty of people are perfectly happy to do evil unimpaired, just look at the billionaire class, or the right wing. If someone had a predilection towards evil acts, then a muddying of their perception of right and wrong would be a good thing, as they could just as easily be swayed to inadvertent good as a person predisposed to good could be swayed to unintended evil.

Your argument also relies on a curious, self-contradictory framing of ethics. Are acts evil in of themselves, or are they evil because of their consequences? Arguing that the frustration of one's rational faculties is evil because it increases their likelihood of committing other evil acts asserts a consequentialist framing, but you then proceed to vilify the act in of itself, in isolation from any further actions. If it's evil because it could lead to evil acts, then it shouldn't be evil if the effects are weathered in isolation from potential victims. If it's evil in of itself, then it can't be argued to be such due to its potential consequences.
> you shoehorn in a dog whistle

This is why social media is shit today. It's full of people unable to sustain intelligent discussion, so they try to find hidden meaning behind someone else's words.

You see a dog whistle, I see a person that gets off doing online witch hunts, instead of simply knowing how to disagree. If you have to resort to the personal attack, it's quite obvious there is no intelligent argument to be had here.

This is not Twitter. Good day.

Hmm, thats cool, but I need to have raster maps pushed to my endpoints.
Do you know any easy way to use mvt maps and generate tiles from them

I have my own tiny personal project for maps renderer using Leaflet.
For now I use 3 sources for tiles (Google, OSM and Esri) but having more sources would be very cool.
Agree 100%. People here are missing the forest for the trees. The creator made way more doing this than he could being employed at even the highest levels in tech, and pulled in huge income with way shorter time frame and less risk than taking VC money and having to exit via acquisition or IPO.

Sure, they got steamrolled in the end, but it’s an absolute win by any metric.
One lesson I learned the hard way (somewhat related to last minute panic at the airport) is: don't try to update/change something in your online check in process that has working, before a critical check-in time, because it can always be fixed at the airport.

Several years ago I got a new passport, and thought to use that to check in online for an intl flight. The app had my old passport and would have worked fine, but puked on scanning the new passport, and suddenly I was not / could not be checked in.

I started going to the airport, to arrive at my usual 1 hr before, but got delayed by traffic. Only by miracle of begging supervisor to reopen check in did they allow me to do it.

I should've just went with the old passport in the record that worked, and changed it out at the gate/checkin counter when at the airport.

The mileage you and your dad got was probably pretty significantly different based on driving style, location etc. Just accelerating quickly off stops can end up having a noticeable effect on overall mileage. You were just willing to accept a much less accurate and imprecise number as “pretty accurate” and when the fuel went down too much you filled it anyways.

I’ve never driven a car to empty ever. I wouldn’t with a Tesla either.
On Windows and macOS Docker runs Linux in a VM and then all the containers attach to that VM. I think this has changed to WSL2 on Windows of late but it's still the case on macOS AFAIK.

Ah, this I agree with. Qualified immunity has protected police in a few way-too-shady circumstances.

However, as a side effect, I think a lot of police would leave their jobs (or less people would join the police force in the future) without qualified immunity. In some cases this is good as it removes or prevents bad apples in the force, but in other cases I imagine perfectly good potential-cops are not going to put up with a dangerous, low-paid job that they can also be sued for doing at any time.

Sort of like aggressive medical malpractice lawsuits discouraging actually good/useful medical treatment as bycatch. Maybe there's some free-market equivalent of malpractice insurance for police (where the shadier they've acted, the more they'd have to pay for insurance)? Not sure the market is the right approach here, but I'm not familiar with any specific alternatives.

Or, to make everything a lot easier, just give every cop a bodycam and ~80% of the ambiguity disappears.
