> So maybe the study answers it but that is a lot to read through for one answer, but my big question that you did not quote is still.

I don't know whether there is an official answer, but if you look at your link there, it says, e.g. 1 kilo of poultry creates 10 kilos of CO2. The average american produces 14k Kilos of CO2/yr, so if you ate a kilo of chicken a day, you're looking at about 3k Kilos of CO2, or something like 20% of your carbon.

If you eat a kilo of beef it's like 250% of the average carbon footprint a year. That is a LOT of meat, but overall, you can guesstimate this is like 10-20% of your carbon footprint if you eat a lot of chicken, and maybe the bulk of it if you eat a lot of red meat. It seems like chicken is better than fish is wayyy better than red meat.
With python I'd decompose that one-liner into several variables for readability. That probably ends up using more memory than it would otherwise but I generally don't work on systems where that matters much.

Scala was really nice for this syntax when I used it for Spark.
Plastic is cheap because it's a biproduct of the production of fossil fuels and so much fossil fuel is processed daily and plastic can be process at scale.
Be careful with having a Fav with FAAMGs: they’re all mega corporations too big to care and immune to dissent.

That parses to me as "given the list np.mgrid, return indexes -1 through 1, step by 5j". I know it's not, but that's what it looks like to me.

Google are a monopoly, near-monopoly, or duopoly on the browser, search, maps, advertising, mobile, and mail.

The only regulatory action we've seen - supported on HN - is to go after their competitors.
No it isn't. Consumption is not emission. We did improve energy efficiency a lot.
Would this not be due to SO’s demise, but due to the fact the tech has become more stable and boring to the point that there are fewer new questions and answers?
Where does it say that in the documentation?
The only values you should track is co2 and ch4 ppm in the atmosphere.
They are both steadily marching up.

I’ve been using it in production for many years and I agree that it’s vastly simpler than kubernetes, by many orders of magnitude. I’m currently migrating off of it because I reached a point where I needed more enterprise-y features for not a ton of money such as rbac, federation, multi-tenant isolation, resource quotas, and less-often mentioned, hireability (it’s easier to hire for since more people have had exposure to it). HashiCorps enterprise products are also notoriously expensive.

Kubernetes has a lot of merits and open source community support which is attractive which means out of the box integrations are vast.

That said, Nomad builds in a lot of sensible default behaviors that are way way closer to production ready with significantly less effort. Many things in Nomad, with Consul and Vault “just work” like you’d expect. Some of it seems like magic.

Kubernetes on the other hand does almost nothing for you to make your custom app production ready out of the box. This means there’s a ton of room for error and incorrectly configured applications. CNIs, Ingress, PodAffinity, PodDisruptionBudgets, Services, HPAs, ServiceRoles, Secrets management are not defined for you and must be exactly correct or orchestrated in clunky and obscure ways, or a ton of effort needs to go into filling these gaps. “Just use EKS/GKE” quickly becomes a list of subsequent decision trees and you need to hope yoy made the right decision because if you don’t your choice will be deprecated in 6-9 months.

The two config options for Kubernetes are Helm/Kustomize Yaml. Both are great for quick POCs but at production scale are completely inferior to HCL and generally an absolute nightmare to work with on the day-to-day.

If I’m a team of one in a startup, I’d choose Nomad.
Thats the fundamental reason we end up with an Attention Economy - People have limited Attention to pay to everything, But unlimited capacity/need to receive Attention (via Michael Goldhaber).

This plants the seed for the info explosion (those 200 bikeshedding comments or those 6 billion videos on how to boil an egg).

To counter it we have rankings of comments and links and news feeds from google to fb to hn. But its just another layer of bullshit cause most of the pool of what is being ranked is bullshit.

We are yet to design Information systems that take into account what Goldhaber said about Attention 3-4 decades ago.
> Doesn't that describe, to different degrees, a great many open source projects? Mozilla? BSDs? etc?

Or a lot of englightenment political theory about democracy and republicanism and the rule of law that all lie at the roots of most modern states?

It's one thing to meet with refutation of this philosophy. It's another thing to meet with the wired article author's incredulity & astonishment at these well established ideas.
Not to be Debbie downer but there’s been a cultural shift in the liberal establishment over the years away from protecting speech, even hateful speech to actively espousing and advocating for censorship. It’s clear that principles can shift over time and Wired is toeing the line.
Direct air capture + electrolysis for hydrogen is a Rube Goldberg machine with ridiculously low efficiency.

As for profitable, it's perfectly profitable for meeting its goals of predatory delay. The longer fossil fuel companies can string along useful idiots, the longer they can continue being profitable.
Anything with feedback control. Updating a priority queue's weights, adaptive caching, adaptive request limiting, etc. Ironically it looks like HN itself rate limited me the first time I tried to reply lol
It's this kind of feedback that has kept me energized through all the ups and downs of solo/indie software development over the past two years :)

And FWIW, I tend to update my plans about monthly as well. Feels like a good cadence for me... maybe a little healthier than becoming overly fixated on all the daily price movements.
The new CCMP conditional-compare instruction is also equivalent to ARMv8’s instruction of the same name. If a condition passes, compare two registers; if not, set the condition bits to an arbitrary value.

On ARM that instruction is a pain in the ass when reading disassemblies, because the on-fail condition bits are just specified as a number from 0 to 15; the disassembler doesn’t bother to label which bits are specified, let alone what conditions they correspond to. Unfortunately it seems like Intel is doing the same thing in their assembly syntax, at least if I’m reading the document correctly.
Not to be confused with XCOM.
No, it's not a ripoff of "iconic X Windows System logo from 1984". It's literally a Unicode symbol from a default OS font, I think on Mac (EDIT: by Microsoft, turns out):

"mathematical double-struck capital X" (look it up).

Also he literally just copied it off a user reply he liked. There were zero designers involved, zero thought, zero planning, and zero considerations. If this is how Elon Musk decided he'll invent FSD no wonder there's no FSD. If this is how he decided to make Optimus, no wonder there won't be Optimus.

A lot of things have become clear during his Twitter reign. Guy is not very well.
>People that are worried about cow rights have usually never spent time with them.

Well, dub? People who spend a lot of time with cows are presumably working in the meat or dairy industries. It's rare for a person to believe their own actions are wrong.
One might romanticize how nice it would be to meet dates outside an app again.

In Tokyo, there are bars specifically tailored for people who are seeking dates. The bar even has displays outside showing the number of men and women currently in the venue. When you get inside, you get to chat to cohorts of the opposite gender for a given amount of time (e.g. 15 min) before you move to the next round.

How do these bars get women to come? The men have to pay for all their drinks. In my only experience (dragged by my friends), the women kept ordering more drinks while chatting amongst themselves. I saw the tab and never went back in again.
> Safari has far more weight here though people are loathe to admit it.

On HN people are more likely to complain about Safari existing and demand Chrome everywhere.
I'd almost say the two make good companion pieces. DI's is a masterclass in nonfiction storytelling, while Cloudberg's is equally adept in its detailed, high-stakes procedural drama.

It's an incredible enough event that it's worth reading both!
It could be.

You don't know who made that — it could be garbage!
But... why? You can't force some entity to call itself differently than it calls itself. Sure, you can refer to it as Twitter, we all will. But it's like pissing in the wind to constantly seek to patch and revert its branding.

Plus likely they'll revert it when the investors and creditors out Elon, because he's clearly not well and driving it into the ground.

No. What US did is decarbonization and energy efficiency improvement. Trade-adjusted emission, taking into account of manufacturing outsourcing, is also decreasing, since 2005.

I'm not sure about this comparison. The AD633 priced as a niche product for a captive market, and the STM32F030F4 can't do the job by itself because it lacks a DAC.
> in the future.

Yes, and that's where it will stay in the future. Unfortunately, we need solutions that exist in the present.
Maybe it hasn't yet removed a net number of jobs, but it's definitely removed jobs at the skill level that's being automated. You upgrade your weaving business from manual looms to automatic looms, maybe you create more jobs for automatic loom engineers but you certainly also remove jobs for weavers. Maybe the additional productivity means that society as a whole now has more jobs but ultimately none of those jobs are going to be easier to do than weaving.

Also, looms are a deceptive example because weaving is still skilled labour. Chances are if you can learn to weave good quality cloth you'll be capable of retraining into another skilled trade. The same can't be said for "unskilled" labour, your 50-year-old factory line workers displaced by automation aren't going to be re-training as graphic designers and web devs. Now apply that not to a specialized machine that screws lids on water bottles really fast, but to a machine that can do any desk job a moderately competent white collar worker can do, and you'll see we have a problem.
Unfortunately, I don't think we get out of this without damaging the environment to some degree. Hell, just mining the copper that goes into this stuff damages the environment.

So yes deserts are fragile, but what isn't? Something is going to suffer no matter what.
>Apparently "Serving Notice dot com" is sufficient to say someone has been served?

Apparently, because the judge allowed it. Looking at the relevant document[1], the reason that was allowed was that:

1. the defendant is foreign

2. "the defendants conducted their businesses over the Internet"

3. "the defendants used e-mail regularly in their businesses"

4. "the plaintiff shows e-mail is likely to reach defendants"

I use Arc Browser with a boost for HN that makes it a bit more enjoyable.
I believe the author is correct. I've read the paper he's referring to and the code in the pytorch lib, and linked Google code from sibling posts. To me it is extremely impressive to have come up with a simple change to a known algorithm to deal with a recently identified issue. There is a strange, but very human, tendency to discount discoveries which are not novel. As if somehow genius and insight can only occur once. (It is, unfortunately, especially common among academics.) So I hope the author feels pride in being right and knowing enough to come to an excellent conclusion.
Firefox did not defeat IE6. That was Chrome. Firefox has basically been a fringe browser since Netscape imploded.

The original reason Google started the Chrome project was that the stagnation of IE6 was a barrier to implementing the web software they wanted to build. At least that's what they told us.

I've been coding for most of my life and I can't believe some people would choose some of these tricks when python has much simpler syntax for most of these.

The first, *_, last trick for example would be particularly obnoxious to encounter. The first element is my_list[0], last is my_list[-1]. Dead simple, way easier to understand at a glance.

There is also nandgame.com, which is heavily inspired by the first few sections of nand2tetris but presents it as a drag and drop web page instead of needing to download and edit the local text files, so it's easier to jump in.
A lot of the drones in Ukraine have relied on jammable surface transmissions.

Great website! The sandbox was superb!

People did that too, and it is still decreasing after trade adjustment.
I mean... mistakes get made. It shouldn't be hard to get this one reversed if that's all there is to it, but hiring a lawyer is absolutely the right way to make that happen. By all means, try to recover attorney's fees after the fact.

But sticking your head in the sand and complaining about it isn't going to get you very far.
That's my guess too; I'm sure Google drives the overwhelming majority of SO traffic.

A few years ago, my programming-related queries would hit Stack Overflow as the first or second result. Now it's very frequently spammy garbage in the top 2-3 slots.
If I followed this correctly and didn’t mess up my indices, adding 1 to the softmax denominator is exactly equivalent to appending an extra zero to the softmax input (effectively casting an exp(0) vote for a new null option) and appending an extra row of zeros to V (so the null option is all zeros).

The latter seems like something training could figure out by itself (zero doesn’t seem like a hard place to land with the weights producing V, although a bunch of zero weights would be needed), but the former is a bit awkward, as QK^T is quadratic in the weights.

In any case, this seems intuitively quite reasonable. But I do wonder whether the 1 in the denominator (equivalent to an exp(0) vote) is the best choice if the goal is to quantize well. 0 is in the middle of the numerical range, and perhaps the implicit null vote should be weighted lower than the middle of the range.
It's possible they knew just enough to know that they needed to implement firmware loading, without knowing the full details of the vulnerability.
The "not designed for dead-stick flight" is a bit off. Of course they are not designed to be gliders, but they are designed to be efficient, which means they have a reasonably high lift/drag ratio (in the range of 15–20 for most airliners). They glide quite well.
No, it was Firefox that defeated IE6. Chrome came and defeated Firefox; Firefox's reign was rather shortlived.

It seems this particular moment in history has been either forgotten or rewritten, judging from this thread and another one from yesterday.
fun fact: Linus Torvalds, in addition to being the author of the linux kernel and the git VCS, is also the original author of subsurface, a software for downloading and managing dive logs from scuba diving off your dive computer

on a less lighthearted note, if you're interested in coral reefs, i highly recommend the beautiful and heartbreaking film "chasing coral". it follows a group of divers who set out to film a coral bleaching event in real time by designing an underwater timelapse camera. it's a wonderful intersection of technical engineering challenges and ecology that i think would appeal to a lot of HN readers

I get "doth protest too much" vibes from the US pursuit of this. From a decade ago.

The most telling thing about this situation is the US' paranoia about China. This is so obviously a "set this guy up as an example" to scare the bejesus out of any other ex-forces types wanting to do almost literally anything even tangentially related to China.

Ten years ago!?!

Not a great advertisement for the US armed forces.

Renouncing US citizenship seems to be the smart move regarding taxes if you're peermanently moving overseas, from my casual knowledge. Wouldn't help ones relationship with a paranoid, jealous, and overtly violent government at all though.

The thing that scares me most about this, though, is the Australian government's treatment of a citizen. Just continues the sad historical trend of being a yes-man to any slight whiff of power. Australia: "anyone need a sidekick? We don't know how to lead, but damn we can blindly follow like fuck"
It's full of X brands. "Thanks to Microsoft" is kinda arbitrary of the article.

I mean "Twitter Videos" are now "X Videos". "The Twitter Files", this series of "investigative" threads... are now "The X Files" (lol).

"Direct Messages" will now be referred to as DirectX I guess, or I don't know.

X is a letter.

It's Roman number ten.

It's in millions of brands around the world.

It also stands for "X Rated", as in containing excessive violence and nudity. It stands for pornography in some context.

It's unsearchable, and barely speakable, as in it's unclear already when you say "X" if you mean Twitter or Elon's son or whatever.

What is he doing? We can ask but I doubt he knows himself.

I recently introduced a referral partnership / revenue share program. There's a link in the footer on the landing page if you'd like to check that out.

Not sure about a version that can be white-labeled though. Would need to think that through more. Do you have a sense for how that typically works and what kind of requirements are involved?

Major security vulnerability of AppleID's 2FA
original link: https://www.v2ex.com/t/959041
I can't make original link to url feild, so put it into content.
The original link requires proficiency in Chinese language to comprehend.

If an application conceals a webview behind a login or other interface, and the webview opens appleid.apple.com, upon tapping the login button, the application can execute JavaScript to simulate clicking the login button of appleid.apple.com. If one fails to discern the disparity between "Sign in Apple ID" and "Sign in with Apple," the application can execute JavaScript to pilfer cookies associated with appleid.apple.com.

Following the aforementioned steps, the application will present an alert resembling "Sign in to iTunes Store." As you are aware, an app-generated "Sign in to iTunes Store" alert bears no distinction from a system-generated one. The sole means to verify whether the alert originates from the system is attempting to return to the home screen. If this goes unnoticed, the application will acquire your Apple ID password. This constitutes the primary concern, because logging into appleid.apple.com on a trusted device doesn't require 2FA, it only requires Face ID or Touch ID, whether you're logging in using Safari or WebView. The application can exploit JavaScript to modify your phone number used for two-factor authentication, thereby get the control of your Apple ID, enabling the attacker to use it for credit card
theft.

To summarize why this is happening:

1. Benign iOS prompts are indistinguishable from those generated by malicious apps. https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2017/10/beware-of-sketchy-ios-popups-that-want-your-apple-id/

2. There is no security measure to confirm that Sign in Apple ID with Face ID is called from within a trusted app.

3. There is no security measure when you change 2FA information, even you aready open AppleID's 2FA.

How do you reproduce it?
1. Open appleid.apple.com in App that uses webveiw to open links.

2. Tap the login button of appleid.apple.com, you will see Sign in Apple ID alert.

3. Confirm sign with Face ID or Touch ID, and try to change your 2FA phone number. At this step, you should notice that you don't need to confirm 2FA to change your 2FA phone number, you just need a password to change it!

There's a case to be made that encryption/private communication has gone through the same sort of progress as personal weaponry has, only on a much shorter time frame and to a much greater extent.

In weaponry, it's taken ~200 years to go from bespoke muskets with a firing rate of a couple rounds per minute to semi-automatic and automatic weapons capable of firing multiple rounds per second.

In just the last 20-30 years we've gone from "if the government wants to know your speech, they are a warrant(-ish) away from getting it" to "as long as you don't make a mistake, no one will ever know what you said."

To be clear, I'm not advocating for encryption restrictions. I'm just saying that almost no one advocates for the 2nd amendment right to a bazooka, and it could reasonably be argued that a bazooka isn't remotely equivalent to the present ability of just about anyone to conceal their speech.
If I don't want to be tracked, I won't use chrome. If I don't care then I'll use it.

Just like I'll have some conversations on WeChat but if I want to talk about Chinese politics maybe I'll do that on another platform.

I don't really see the erosion in the corporate space. The erosion of privacy is happening at the government level. With "forced backdoor" laws and/or just outright forking the internet backbone (ala PRISM). I've never really understood "Corporate erosion of privacy"... It's opposite, Privacy is literally a USP of Apple products. They had to back out changes that hinted at an erosion of that trust with the on-device processing of Photos for cloud-sync. People are more aware than ever.
My point isn't that we need to avoid the damage, it's that we shouldn't ignore it. It's really no better ignoring the negative consequences of renewables than ignoring the consequences of fossil fuels. They may be less, but as you point out they still exist and we need to do more to mitigate them.
Not really. Unlike a gas station, those are mostly places I'd be going anyways. And even thought it takes longer, I can be doing other stuff (like my job) while charging
