Here's one of his short story collections

France will never agree to the special rules the UK negotiated when they were part of the EU.

We also do not particularly keep the UK (politically speaking) close to our hearts. The Calais situation, pour contact for submarines passed to the UK (and US), etc.

Pour gouvernement is seen as weak when it comes to conflicts with the UK so politicians will need to take that into account as well.
I feel like the root of the pro/against nuclear debate comes down to your outlook on storage :) I'm skeptical that storage can meet our needs (would love to be wrong! haven't seen a convincing analysis, yet), so I think we need a reliable form of continuous power. The only option currently on the table for that is nuclear, so, I boost nuclear. I dislike the nuclear nay-saying, because it further delays an already slow process. When (IMO) the optimistic plan for storage doesn't pan out, we're really going to regret not having started building those nukes ~14 years ago... so why not hedge our bets and get 'em started right now? In the grand scheme of climate change costs, they are absolutely dirt cheap.
I don't think you are. Section 702 is egregiously terrible.
I am sorry I should have written it better. This is how I abstract away from tailwinds utility litter.

I'll take your insistence that we talk about anything but TFA as agreement that its title is baity af.
When I read that first sentence, I thought “what has cloud (software) to do with this”
You mentioned the variable ghosting, which absolutely is a monitor problem. Either the algorithm determining how much to overdrive the pixels from frame to frame is bad, or the panel itself is too slow for overdrive to work effectively without being noticeable. There may be a setting you can turn down in the OSD to improve performance, as many gaming monitors come with this set too high out of the box.

My suggested fix should still solve your other problem, which is the wild swings in framerate. Bouncing between 200 is 100 certainly is jarring, and capping your game's framerate to make those swings smaller or nonexistent will fix it.
Perhaps a better design would be to realign the antenna automatically if it hasn't received any signal from Earth after a week or whatever.
It's not exactly relevant how much solar produces per year - it's very important _when_ the energy can be produced and how much you can control that.
Nuclear facilities seem pretty fragile / demanding, I doubt one would survive any kind of apocalyptic event. The infrastructure supporting it will be gone.
Yes, I use one sentence per line for things like latex or markdown, but I mainly do that because of line-based diff tools.

For me, reading one sentence per paragraph is fine for short things like comments, but I find it gets exhausting after 8~10 sentences. It feels like the author is unable to focus and expand on one thing, and keeps moving on new points over and over again, or like every sentence is of equal importance and some pivotal revelation in the story.
This is a nice pet theory, but all real world statistics have shown this to be false. Illegal drugs have become more widely spread year after year, up to the point where some of them are now common enough to either be or soon to be legalized.
I understand when the BSDs are forked they become their own thing.

I guess my question was more about something like Debian. Ubuntu is based on Debian. PopOS and Mint are built off of Ubuntu. They are all separate, but still pull the code from their upstream. Why isn't there a situation like that with the BSDs? As far as I know the only ones that exist like that are GhostBSD and HardenedBSD.
Being a regular smoker seems to require regular breaks or your tolerance is going to blow through your budget and you won't even have the advantage of being high while all your money disappears. A week or two off does wonders. A few months off and that first day back is really nice. I've never been very good at regulating my dosages. I find it much easier to switch between consuming all I want / not consuming anything at all than trying to maintain a consistent low dosage.
No one is suggesting we let kids buy weed either. This comparison doesn’t hold up to even slight scrutiny.
Don't do this. DNS works and continues to work because we don't abuse it.
This is a variant of the oracle problem; it's not solvable. It also assumes that NFT art is a real thing and not just an excuse for pump and dumps.

While AFAIK no one had ever died from cannabis use, to be entirely fair, isn't there some impact of long-term use on brain functions? Plus some effect on the lungs if smoking (though, of course, there are other means of consumption).

Also, most certainly it takes somewhat longer than a couple months of alcohol abuse for the liver and other organs to start failing.
I took a self-rescue course and a list at the end of their handout had such good engineering tips that I shared it with my eng team. Lots to be learned about engineering from climbing/mountaineering. The list was something like the following:

A few pro-tips:

- Slow is smooth. Smooth is fast.

- Simplicity/speed/efficiency is good.

- Strong is good. Redundancy is good/better.

- Equalization and Extension are a trade off.

- Not everything is a nail so NOT every tool is a hammer.

- Tools that have multiple uses are good.
I'm as far from russia apologist as can be - but they blew the bridge part few months earlier, in November. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxHLImMbnAw
I will give you the benefit of doubt given it's Hacker News you likely are an expert, but this feels like one of those "sounds too intuitive to be that simple" type complex factors. Any literature on the topic from which I can improve my understand?
You’re calculating that storage number as if the solar power plant would have produced power for 24 hours.

To simplify if you have 8 hours of power and you store 1/2 of it you need 4h of storage. So our hypothetical 4GW solar power plant produces 2GW for 8 hours and 1 GW for 16. That already batter fits the demand curve than steady state output.

However things get better if you instead consider real world demand and the actual production of solar panels being spread across the entire day a 4 hour of storage is close to perfect. Except, the real world isn’t a hypothetical 100% solar grid so 2h ends up working fine in most areas.
This is especially true when you're working with popular frameworks that been around for awhile, e.g. rails or even django at this point.

Most accepted answers I come across for questions I have with rails are a mix of:

* Use this niche gem I created, which btw has no license and hasn't been updated in 5 years

* Use this approach which depends on rails internals from 4+ major versions ago

* Use this rails helper which has been long-deprecated and removed in modern rails

At this point I just use Phind [1] -- it's quite good at niche rails questions and I can specify that I want "Rails 7.0 or Edge" answers only so it won't give me an answer from 2011 or 2013.

Different people react very differently to edibles. 40mg can be either plant yourself on the couch for the next four hours or barely feel anything.

Cool project, quick design feedback, in 'Exploring the use cases' the left column is too narrow? https://ibb.co/f4Q5mnB
It's easy to find detailed retrospectives of the multitude of failures here.

I haven't found a single one that said excess regulation was a problem, but I have found a huge number that showed project management, bad design, bad communication between engineers and EPC, etc. were all to blame.

Here's one I was reading recently from 2017, about the welding issues. Every other aspect, such as concrete, exhibited similar failures.

https://www.enr.com/articles/43325-witness-to-the-origins-of...

But if you have an idea of which regulations to change, or how to fix project management, you can pick up a half-completed pair of reactors in South Carolina on the cheap. That boondoggle often gets forgotten when examining Vogtle.
Agreed, IPAs(west coast, hazy, etc) are pretty much the only beer I enjoy drinking(for taste). Occasionally, I'll take a lager on a hot day when I want something really "light".
The correct version you can find here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kronecker_product#Matrix_equat...

The answer for why it is so is pretty trivial(just do the indexing for each element) if you know the definition of the kronecker product and what the 'vec' operation is.

For an intuitive explanation, try thinking of how the matrix multiplication would work and consider how the kronecker product pattern would apply to the vector.

This honestly isn't a super interesting result, and I would say the original commenter was overstating its importance in the matrix calculus. It really is more useful for solving certain matrix problems, or speeding up some tensor product calculations if you have things with a certain structure. Like if we have discretization of a PDE then depending on the representation the operator in the discrete space may be a sum of kronecker products, so applying those can be fast using a matrix multiply and never storing the kroneckered matrices.
They're not the same at all. Alcohol wrecks my sleep, but weed has very little negative effect.
Tell me more about that coal burning record in Germany.
I believe that for the D9 gummies, but not for the THCA hemp flower. Vaping that feels identical to me to vaping "normal" weed.
This is such an incredible misrepresentation. The only thing nuclear can't do is respond to sudden demand surges. But that's what batteries can do (it's also the only thing they can do well).

This[1] is the Australian energy market operator dashboard. Note the demand curve. It is not sudden in anyway - it is highly, highly predictable. Nuclear reactors can handle that sort of curve just fine - you roll the control rods in when it's low, pull them out when it's high.

The "inability" of nuclear reactors to handle variable loads is to do with the thermal mass of the reactor pile which can't be changed rapidly, but electrical load generally doesn't change rapidly - it changes very, very predictably at large scale.

Nuclear reactors can handle normal electrical demand flows just fine.

Hey, I'm one of the co-founders of Clerky :) Under Delaware law, directors are subject to fiduciary duties. E.g. duty of loyalty and duty of care. You can read more here: https://corpgov.law.harvard.edu/2020/03/10/directors-fiducia... In part because of this, it's not standard for directors to enter into agreements for their service on the board.

But if your situation requires something beyond those fiduciary duties — e.g. if you want them to be obligated to spend a certain amount of time on the company, want to memorialize compensation terms, etc., then an agreement could make sense. If you need a referral to an attorney to help with that, feel free to reach out to our support team!

Those high points are better addressed by such things as hydrogen-burning turbines. Hydrogen produced from excess renewables during the price troughs, stored underground, then burned at the peaks. Because the capacity factor of these turbines would be low the cost of fuel would be acceptable, and their capital cost would be an order of magnitude below what a nuclear plant would cost, per unit of power output.

Europe has enough salt formations to store many petawatt hours of hydrogen, far far more than would be needed.
I'm planning on running Arch on the newer model so thanks for this writeup
I dont think making a substance illegal reduces its use. In the town where I live it was illegal to sell liquor until recently and this just created demand for unsafe unregulated products that normally can't compete with legal alcohol. Alcoholics dont really care about things like laws. They dont really care about anything. When a person is far gone enough that he or she will drink hand sanitizer, getting in his or her way will just cause more problems.
I'm surprised that people don't know that caffeine is addictive. I'd think most adults have accidentally withdrawn from it at some point.

I just tapered over the last two weeks, easier as an iced tea drinker. I measured what I drank one day in grams and then had 10% less the next day, decreasing by the same mass for the next 10 days. No side effects at all and it's there if I want to go back.
I'm a retired neurosurgical anesthesiologist: I learned a TON from this article. It's excellent.
Cloud cover reduces solar production by 10-25%. If you need 10x overproduction, plus storage it's not cheaper than nuclear. That's not even counting factors like axial tilt (during winter the Earth is rotated away form the sun, reducing incoming light per M^2 of land), and the transmission infrastructure required to accommodate the decentralized nature of solar and wind [1] (which nuclear conveniently avoids since it's much more energy dense).

These aren't artificially constrained issues. These are real practical barriers. Why haven't countries the world over completely to renewables if it's cheaper? Because corporations want to screw up the environment because... they're moustache-twirling evil people or something? But the reality is that intermittent sources still have significant barriers to implementation that won't go away without massive, orders-of-magnitude improvements in storage performance. Renewables are good to deploy in an opportunistic fashion, supplementing dispatchable sources during periods of production and then turning the gas back on when they're not producing. But actually producing a primarily renewable grid becomes vastly more challenging due to the intermittency.

I've done this; the security lady aggressively shouted at me and frantically pointed at a small sign on the other side of the exhibit. Since some exhibits were "please DO touch" interactive I thought it wasn't that bad of a mistake but she disagreed. I'm guessing she responded to strongly because I was far from the first person to make this mistake, which is a good indication that your design sucks...

"You must be this tall and clairvoyant to enter".

Still not as bad as the traffic controller who physically assaulted me because I failed to see the "stop sign" given in the car lane on the other end of the road from my bicycle in the bicycle lane... Ran up to me and pushed me off my bike shouting "PEOPLE HAVE BEEN IGNORING THIS ALL NIGHT AND I'M SICK OF IT!" ... yeah, because what you're doing makes no sense mate...

I guess my question was more about something like Debian which would be more comparable to FreeBSD. Ubuntu is based on Debian. PopOS and Mint are built off of Ubuntu. They are all separate, but still pull the code from their upstream. Why isn't there a situation like that with the BSDs? As far as I know the only ones that exist like that are GhostBSD and HardenedBSD.

Why do the BSDs split for good instead of just pulling from upstream and making some changes?

There are also private linux distros. I wasn't really getting into them since they aren't available.
Pumped hydro can work anywhere that has hills. It's just a lot cheaper in some locations than others, due to favorable geography.

Water use just has to keep up with evaporation on average.

I'm not sure why building a reservoir needs to be an "ecological nightnmare" except in the sense that it's a sudden change to an environment.
> millions of events per day

I was talking about millions of events per every couple of seconds, not per day. A million events per day can be accomplished with just 11 per second, btw; a very... achievable number.

WhatsApp, which is built on OTP, handled 64 billion messages in a day. Averaging out to 744,000 a second. Almost 10 years ago. (Granted, also on 8000 cores. But thanks to the concurrency...)

I have the same issue, and it originally comes from soft-drinks like Cola, and now I have to drink tons of coffee just to not have headaches and withdrawal syndrome.

If caffeine was illegal you and I wouldn't have acquired such addiction, so there is a very big + to prohibition; it will prevent future generations to fall into the same trap.

Maybe making a law that forbids selling drinks containing caffeine to kids could be a good start.
i don't agree that the behavior you describe is a 'dog whistle'.

A dog whistle is a hidden signal. I'd say what you are describing is a hidden agenda.
John McCarthy was right
Mids are easier to get on the illegal market, ironically.

I was going to ask the same. That is a really important feature to have to replace traditional indexes and usually poorly implemented in vector search libraries.

For example, filtering by arbitrary time range.
That's not autonomous that's automatic
That's an additional flat charge, _in addition to_ the cost it was last month.

> France has massive problems with their reactors and leads the world with only 62.6% from nuclear.

Yet, France consistently produces half of Germany's CO2 per capita: https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/EN.ATM.CO2E.PC?location...

I would consider that a giant success of nuclear energy.

> A comparable number to Denmark that has almost no hydro power.

Denmark is not relevant - they import giant majority of their energy. Right now they barely produce at all: https://i.imgur.com/69SI5J9.png

> Costs aren't the only problem, new nuclear reactors simply cannot be build fast enough to counteract the climate crisis.

They could be build fast enough if we did it _seriously_, and not as vanity projects.

I believe AWS can advertise your networks via BGP these days, so you only need an IP allocation and an AS number.

Language-Level Toll Roads
It's a fun project if you want to learn to code, which is why I think there're so many of them around. I built and run Accio127[1][2] for the same reason.

Are you talking about consumption or production?

In term of production a country can easily go above 100% renewable by selling a lot of it during periods of optimal conditions. Naturally, a country can not above 100% in terms of consumption. Denmark for example is a massive exporter in terms of production, but also a massive importer in terms of consumption and has a very large dependency on imports. They are not self sufficient despite producing more energy that they themselves consume.
Spectrum BASIC had PRINT AT (which is probably what you're thinking of). The C64 would probably have to use control characters to achieve the same thing in BASIC if it's anything like PET BASIC (inverted playing card suit characters etc.).
Perhaps (respectfully) this is not good advice? In my experience a “sense of control” over one’s addiction only serves to keep it alive.
Yes, given the 4K WEB-DL releases it seems a few groups/individuals possess the knowledge of decrypting L1 content. Occasionally an L1 key will be leaked but is burnt quickly. I think the requirement of "unique" keys stops an interest in a public effort to make L1 content work under Linux, especially as there is already support for L3 content. Even under Windows and macOS end users must be using Microsoft Edge or Safari (platform specific) - given Chrome's huge marketshare I imagine lots of non Linux users are consuming exclusively L3 content on desktop platforms so I'm not sure there's much demand for full/ultra HD content, although many users may simply be unaware that their browser choice affects the quality of content they are streaming.
> It signals that something is "bad" and for "bad people."

Given the absurd disconnect between US law and anything resembling ethics, I doubt this is true. If you're on the left, you're as likely to see law enforcement as bad people, and if you're on the right, substitute guns for marijuana and you're likely to have very different views. While some people might think this way at a surface level, I suspect the number of people who base their view of morality on laws is vanishingly small compared to the number of people who base their view of laws on their morality.

> Banning something where the rest of the culture is trying to normalize it probably is futile.

Good thing there's no cultural movement to normalize the substance we're talking about.

> It's hard to ignore that marijuana seems to be much more prevalent now that it's been legalized in many places.

Hard to ignore, but easy to explain with explanations other than "it made things worse". Does it occur to you that maybe people just aren't hiding their use now that it's legal?
Why your management style is backwards (and what to do instead)
Probably why the idea of r/GuerrillaGardening is getting popular.

Leaving that aside, I was reading about an urban permaculture group's experience with working with the city. In their experience, the city they are working with wants to make sure that whatever is done will work with other people as well. (This was Seattle, with a conversion of one part of the park to a perennial food forest)

Just a bit of advice: You wrote a sentence about what the service does, and a large paragraph on what it was built on. When you're pitching your service, tell people what's different about your service, why it's better, why they'll want to use it, etc.

I understand that HN tends to be more technical, but the technical details can be a single link. Right now, all I know about your project is that it's a bookmark manager and S3 is better for storing files than the filesystem.

Good luck!
