Electric fueled by coal produces less CO2 than gasoline. It's not cleaner by a long shot. The pollution produced by a coal plant, especially a brown coal plant, is insane even when they don't have an ash pond breach that kills more wildlife than a tactical nuclear explosion.

I bought a Mitsubishi fridge about 2 years ago that's been going good. 470L french door model (MR-WX470F but I think that's an Australian SKU).

No touch screen but the controls are capacitive which is a bummer. The ice maker isn't plumbed, you fill up an internal container so no water line to worry about. Little details I like about it like how the ice draw is lined with foam to dampen the noise when the ice drops in. It has this weird "super cooling" metal-lined draw, intended for storing leftovers without freezing them. I never used it until I realised it's really good at chilling beer. Made in Japan for what that's worth. Time will tell if it craps out early but I have a good feeling about it.
Yes, totally. Not something anyone reading this is going to replicate!
Yes. It's far from perfect, of course, but there are high-end appliance manufacturers who do make very reliable appliances.
I just received a brand new Thinkpad from work. I don't even mind Windows but holy crap is that thing an absolute chore to use. I don't understand how this is still an issue while Apple has been putting out what amounts to the perfect laptop for like 10+ years now.
You jump to a critical interpretation instead of allowing for instance "It's the weekend when I'm off the clock and don't police myself so much"? Interrsting.

Sorry if I was unclear in my statement. I assumed, without access to the article, that this release is using "Tobacco" loosely to mean "some sort of Nicotiana", likely Nicotiana Benthamiana. Calling N. Benthi "Tobacco" is something I've seen in other press releases and popular descriptions of plant research.

Definitely not trying to suggest it's the only model plant! Like you said, Arabidopsis is huge, and there are other plants used commonly as well. Just pointing out that using N. Benthi / "Tobacco" in research is def not uncommon for some kinds of plant research. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18616398/

All that said, I'm not a plant biologist! I'm just an engineer who happened to work for a bit of time in Biotech, and is trying to continue learning about that field on the side, so feel to take my thoughts on this with a grain of salt or 2!

I keep meaning to research this, and maybe this isn't the right place, but how are things going for Linux executables? Last I tried Linux on ARM it seemed like application-level support for ARM was very spotty.

> The game relies heavily on Bier's June policy analysis, "Why Legal Immigration Is Nearly Impossible."

Doesn't the US accept nearly 2 million legal immigrants per year?

Underlying the article is the presumption that not being allowed to immigrate to the US, despite one's virtue, is somehow unfair. That, unlike other countries, who can choose to accept as many or as few immigrants as their people want, the US owes the world to let them come.

“A friend to all is a friend to none” - No wonder patriotism is falling, when the US shows no more loyalty to its own people than to anyone else, and any limits still placed on immigration are treated as archaic and obsolete, vestigial laws left over from less enlightened times.
“In my experience, the phrase ‘you are what you eat’ is exponentially more applicable to AI than to humans.”

This tweet by @WirelessPuppet reflects how folks are finally realizing that AI is becoming data-centric. But what does the future hold?

What data curation and modeling work will be done manually vs automated?

I believe significant automation is necessary to ensure the health of ever-increasing amounts of data and models. Our newest article outlines a vision of how automation-aided AI workflows should look (Hint: AI itself can facilitate many of steps needed to turn raw data into reliable model deployments)

The article outlines: how we plan to get there, why we are building open-source and AI platform software, and key differences between these offerings. Read it to learn why data itself should now be improved using AI.
One could read it as "black enslaver" (or something similar), but I agree with the user that it is quite a leap to do so.

Apple products are only dominant the US. For the rest of the world they are more of an luxury item.

That said, I am not terribly interested in ARM-based laptops for now. Yes, they may be more energy efficient and all but that hardly matters to me compared to just having the same x86 architecture I run on my desktop and servers. That sweet binary-compatibility means less headache.

People underestimate the advantages that CPU architecture monoculture gave us, though they are getting admittingly less important year by year. Maybe one day I am going to run an ARM laptop or even RISC-V.

Wetlands not only slow water, but they help to purify water by allowing it to move slowly. Plants and gravity do a wonderful job of cleaning water on its way to the sea.

On top of that, forested land is more conducive to rainfall. By allowing these areas to flourish, you not only slow and retain water but increase catchment overall as well. The chance of forest dying in drought decreases, and your chance of rainfall increases (slightly, yet meaningfully when balances are so delicate).

Beavers also produce habitat which benefits many other native species. More water is generally more life in North America.
Show HN: Markwhen: Markdown for Timelines
I've been working on markwhen for a bit as a way to create timelines and calendars from plain text, like markdown.

Interesting philosophical question: is awesomeness intrinsic or extrinsic (a matter of perception)? Can anything be intrinsic?

If it's intrinsic, then yes, the probability that it is awesome should not be zero if you've never heard of it. It's awesomeness exists independently of any measurement. But, by definition, you can't know it's awesomeness until you measure it, so awesomeness quotients only matter after they've been measured. And a measured value value must be expressible/observable outside the system (i.e. extrinsic).
Interesting. Is it really the universal rule or does it only apply to some countries? I compared the same listing at the same dates on both .com.au and on airbnb domain for my country (in EU) and there is only a negligible difference that comes from currency conversion I believe. I did the comparison in the same browser, so I'm wondering if there might have been some fingerprinting involved and prices were artificially bumped on the AU site?

> The takeaway here is that the Clang AST is missing information that is invented by the LLVM IR code generator, but LLVM IR is also missing information that is destroyed by said code generator. And if you want to bridge that gap, you need to rely on an approximation: the Clang CFG.

This is how optimizers do terrible things with no way to warn users: information loss across multiple transformed representations of the original. It's a telephone game.
How will that help? Does the dog inhale the ethylene gas?
Yup what I really need is a sturdy, large volume fridge with basic functionalities and last for decades. I don't need ice makers or a touchscreen that can play Quake on.

On the other side, I'm really itchy to get into IoT security if I had more time. I'm sure security is not the first concern of fridge makers (or whatever "modernized" appliances) so it might not be difficult for an amateur to break into them.

I believed this too, until COVID. Millions weren't even willing to do so much as wear a tiny piece of cloth over their faces. If they can't even put up with that minuscule level of discomfort for the greater good, do you think they will ever make the sacrifices needed to slow climate change? No way!

No solution to climate change is politically viable if it means the general public needs to lift a finger. We know they just won't do anything, mandated or not. The ocean could be coming into their living room, and they will sit there, watching it, scowling about their political opponents.

We had millions of people literally willing to spread a deadly disease and die, just to irritate the other side. Not only will these people do nothing in the face of climate change, they will do whatever they can to accelerate it if they believe their ideological opponents want to stop it.

Not the first, or second, or third person I've heard about being duped by a farming gig in Hawaii. People will buy fairly cheap, totally undeveloped forest tracts and lure unsuspecting people in who dream of "Hawaii". But, they usually don't dream of being deep in a forest, with no neighbors, an hour from the nearest part of the ocean, which you can't even swim in, nor even get to since you have no car and no access to public transit. All the while doing hard manual labor in a hot and humid environment for 16 hours/day while living in a tent or in literally just under a mosquito net hanging from a tree.
My theory is that it is a form of price discrimination. If you can afford to stay at a nicer hotel, then you are more likely to be able and willing to pay more for wifi as well. You can see it in other things too. For example, mid-range hotels often have "free" breakfast included, but higher end hotels charge you for breakfast. Room service prices scale with the price of a room.
AI makes it easier for anyone to write software. So, yeah that makes sense, I don't think it warrants an article, and I think the FBI might just be fear mongering.

College definitely has historically paid off, people have just been impatient with the return timeline. The fruits of a degree don't start to really manifest until your 30's, assuming you got a practical degree. They become undeniable by your 50's.

Going forward though, I think the combination of AI and extreme degree dilution (everybody has a degree) are going to absolutely railroad a bunch of gen-z kids down the line.
Yep, I screw things up all the time with packages in homebrew that are written in python, when I forget to switch into a virtual env before doing stuff with pip. Debian's solution seems very sensible. And it is the same solution as homebrew, I suppose, as long as you don't interact with any of the homebrew-installed packages via pip. But I find it quite easy to accidentally do that.
Another one, deeper comparison https://www.sicara.fr/blog-technique/how-to-choose-your-vect...
Hotels being directly bookable or bookable through other travel systems is a core feature of the hotel business model.

Many industries go through this, especially retail. It's cyclical.

- The business establishes its brand and develops a loyal following.

- Some consultant or middle manager or other rocket surgeon decides "We should be everywhere! Then we'll sell more!"

- Increases sales for a little bit, then it doesn't because the product becomes a commodity that people can get anywhere, and so people start buying the competitors because the they're all viewed as being the same, since they're everywhere and right next to one another on a web site or store shelf. The company then has to compete on price rather than quality while still paying the middlemen, causing profit margins shrink.

- Management realizes it's bought into a bunch of lies, and starts to let the co-marketing agreements expire so that it can get better control of its product.

- New generation of managers come in and repeat the same mistake.

Interesting, this one to me was always more post-punk (from the ATDI era) transitioning into prog rock (everything TMV did after their first album). Haven't really considered it to be "emo", but then again, I'm not an expert when it comes to musical genres.
"SME"? "Small to Medium Enterprise".

Seems almost as close as you could get.
My takeaway from this is that a lot of people disagree on what "edge" is. IMO, "edge" is the furthest resource that you have some computational level of control over. Could be a data center, could be a phone, could be an IoT device, could be a missile.

EDIT: I think I'm realizing people will disagree with me because I have a different perspective. For my use cases, my data comes from sensors on the edge, and so for me, I want my edge computing to be as close to those sensors as possible.

I’m fairly sure RHEL has had in place upgrades for a few release now (at least going back to the 6 -> 7 transition, nearly a decade ago).
Sorry, I should have been more clear. HA = High Availability. Essentially, folks wanted the ability to automatically failover to a secondary node if the current primary failed.
I can't really use it at work, due to restrictive corporative policy in place. I don't control my workstation setup, and I'm only allowed vanilla CPython there. Regarding this, I wished PyPy were pip installable from inside CPython, like Hylang and Pyston do.

But while programming as a hobby at home, mostly small-scale simulations, PyPy is my default interpreter for Python. It seems PyPy has a sweet spot on code written relying heavily on OOP style, with a lot of method calls and self invocation. I consistently get 8-10x speed improvements.

TechCrunch has a nice break down of the possibilities around this[0]

I am not sure how the color e-ink performs in this particular scenario with the monitor advertised compared to something like P3 enabled displays, but the tech has advanced that Gallery 3 panels[1] can produce 50K CMYK scaled colors are 300 DPI which is great for color accuracy, esp. in regards to physical materials (brochures, T-Shirts etc).

Feeding gambling addictions is the one big externality that comes to mind.
Every company I've worked for provided a macbook to us, and all my coworkers use a macbook. When I have the option, I pick PC. My last company gave me a choice between mac or PC, and I picked the thinkpad. My current company gave me a macbook pro, but I opted to use my personal Windows machines instead.

I'm the guy who has to come up with a workaround, but it's never a problem for others. Usually I'm translating some bash command into powershell, which takes maybe 2 minutes. Everything else runs just fine, and I don't even need to use WSL. Windows is a perfectly viable development platform, if you give a shit about learning the differences between a unix-like environment and windows instead of just copping out and using WSL

> To be fair, Debian used to work even for FreeBSD back in the day with Debian GNU/kFreeBSD.

As both a Debian and FreeBSD person, I think I was uniquely in a position to like this, and it was awful circa 2012. Some stuff would work, and a lot of stuff didn't, because FreeBSD basic utilities weren't packaged and GNU versions didn't have full functionality: network configuration was difficult, lots of administration was also difficult. You ended up needing a FreeBSD chroot, and then you might as well use FreeBSD/FreeBSD.

When your pupils are smaller, the image that hits your retina is sharper, just like with a pinhole camera.

Sharper images lead to less eyestrain because you don't need to keep your eye still for as long.

I think the issue is that Airbnb claimed and advertised they would begin offering true pricing that included all fees displayed upfront so you could compare all the bookings against each other in the search engine and not buried in the terms and conditions:

https://mashable.com/article/airbnb-actual-price-listing-fee...

It's insanity to have to search through each listing and add random fees to compare the prices of different listings against each other. I don't think the OP disputes that this appears in the terms and conditions.

That's a terrible "definition" of edge
This always fascinating to see a person that maintains a ton of package, knowing full well that there is no way that they actively use all that software themselves. At the same time there are millions of us that just expects a package to be available, but never think to offer to at least help maintain a something. Frequently it's not even that hard, sure there are a few specialized packages which require more skills, but packaging up a Python library is something most of us could easily do.

Generally all of us needs to be better at pitching in where we can and not be depended on a few people overworking themselves.
Honestly looks awesome and Dasung is pretty consistent with their product delivery. Having color would be a game changer for coding. But the monochrome one is already an eye watering price ($1800 USD). This is probably going to be north of $2500.
No defects needed for flux penetration in a type-II superconductor. When the conference length is smaller than the penetration depth (up to a factor of sqrt(2)), flux vortices can nucleate as soon as the surface magnetic field gets above the lower critical field Bc1.
