Nah, there's a book deal on this a few years down the line, however it pans out. I'd be day drinking my way through it, though.
Thanks, and that’s cool! Always good to hang out with other people with actual Celiac. I often meet people who say they have it, but then are “oh, not officially diagnosed, I don’t get real sick, so I just, you know, pick off the croutons…” which is not my situation.

I’ve picked where to live partially because of the amounts of restaurants that are dedicated… Portland was fantastic in that regard, and Denver is not bad, though generally I just don’t eat out much these days.

You’re right that it is easier to adapt to than some people would think. Overall, some people are very strange about food. One, I’ve talked to people who don’t understand that white flour is made from wheat… they thought I only had to avoid whole wheat bread (ha!). Some people think gluten is some basic food chemistry ingredient, like vegetable starch, or maybe a food additive. Other people have acted like no other food besides wheat exists, kind of like saying you’re a vegan (“what do you eat then??!”).

I really have no problem with various GF foods or substitutes. It helps that my favorite foods were already things like tamales and nachos. GF pasta and pizza are great, and even beer. I like to think of it as “alternative grain” rather than define it by what it does not have.
And apparently the creator of the "Ever-Ready Sharp Pencil" in Japan went on to found the electonics company "Sharp", whose name is derived from the pencil:

> The mechanical pencil became successful in Japan with some improvements in 1915 by Tokuji Hayakawa, a metalworker who had just finished his apprenticeship. It was introduced as the "Ever-Ready Sharp Pencil". Success was not immediate since the metal shaft—essential for the pencil's long life—was unfamiliar to users. The Ever-Ready Sharp began selling in huge numbers after a company from Tokyo and Osaka made large orders. Later, Tokuji Hayakawa's company got its name from that pencil: Sharp.

twitter as a blog, WTF
> I think the reason that the browser is so slow is that every time you mutate something, an attribute or add or remove an element, the browser rerenders immediately.

Is it really immediately? I thought that was a myth.

I thought that, given toplevel function `foo()` which calls `bar()` which calls `baz()` which makes 25 modifications to the DOM, the DOM is only rerendered once when foo returns i.e. when control returns from usercode.

I do know that making changes to the DOM, when immediately entering a while(1) loop doesn't show any change to the DOM.
I worked at a credit card network company some years ago and thought the article mentioned an exploit on the actual network.

It is instead a showcase on how mediocre issuers can be when authorizing transactions, and how non-sensical the system has become that the merchant ends up paying the price for chargebacks.
Why don't they just share the original sample? At least it could offer an existence proof
There are also plenty of sizable places around the world that generate very little C02 when generating electricity.

See France, Ontario, Quebec, Sweden and other places on the map below and look at their C02 emissions per year per kilowatt.

I think it's just a defeatist attitude, no real condemnation.
Websites can do whatever they want if there's logic added to do it. I remember a few annoying personal homepages that would refuse to load using a particular browser. If you want to ban all Firefox users on Linux, you could add a middleware to your tech stack that checks for User-Agent. This is how many mobile redirection sites work.

So then, by extension, if a particular company wants to mandate WEI, then that's their prerogative but I won't be a customer of theirs for long.
Also git diffs and execution traces.
And would they be wrong? We know the CIA wanted to perform false flag attacks on the US to support an invasion of Cuba, and this only didn't happen because the then president refused to authorise it; is a repeat of that more or less likely than a "real" war?
When the service provider is liable for fraud losses they use the latest best practices. When the customer eats the loss they can just throw up their hands and say you should have used xyz security feature.
The fatal flaw with its hardware, for me, is the lack of upgradability. I brought the lowest spec M1 air ~6 months ago, these are pricey machines and I had no idea whether I'd like the hardware/software, so wanted to go easy. Turns out, I really like it, but 8gb ram and 256gb ssd isn't enough. In the world of most laptops, this upgrade would cost me maybe £150. For Mac, this upgrade costs me £3,500 (for half as much storage as well), because I'd need to buy a whole new machine.
Well, I was thinking more of the "your work requires you to use some SaaS shit that transitively requires this attestation, whether it's legally required or not" angle. Like if, I don't know, let's say your time tracking software or something started depending on WEI.
> I'm actually surprised by the sheer lack of people commenting in the more-or-less-perma-LK-99 threads who show skepticism of the results.

There's plenty of people that are skeptical and making it a point to tell everyone they are skeptical. There's plenty of people that are skeptical that are still engaging on the possibility of it being real because it is interesting to do so. There are plenty of people discussing potential pitfalls in the papers being written and experiments being done.

But ultimately talking to people in the comments on HN is a form of entertainment for most of the people engaging, and skepticism is a lot less entertaining for most people in general than being enthusiastic and engaging on possibilities. It's not surprising that people going somewhere for engagement and entertainment are doing the thing that is more fun to the majority.

I doubt the majority of people that are excited about it would place serious money on it being true - I sure wouldn't. But I am having fun watching the developments, talking about things to the minimal extent I understand, and thinking about the Cool Stuff that would become possible if we were to suddenly have a new room temp ambient pressure semiconductor
I read more about F&P and wow, there are striking similarities. The duo probably weren't fraudsters. No intentional deception in their work was ever found, so not like Hendrik Schon. They were basically forced to make their results public by their university, but it was very premature and they should have waited ten years. They were 100% legit, top researchers in the field before all this, and well after the scandal many scientists continued research in avenues initiated by F&P's original experiments (with little success). I can totally see LK-99, once it fails replication in a month, leading to more research but probably not yielding the holy grail.
The current state of Wine Photoshop for the past 5 years is that it's unusable alongside other modern graphics software on modern hardware. The only high dpi version that you can expect to get working is CC2018 and it has a lot of bugs when running on Wine. CS6 runs perfectly and it's an excellent version of Photoshop, but it doesn't support high dpi so you'll have to lower your display resolution until you can read the menu text.
>There is no tax rate system that will ever tax any income at more than 100%. If you earn an extra dollar, you may only ever take home $0.01 (because you owe $0.99 in taxes). You might even take home nothing in some hypothetical 100% marginal rate tax regime, but nobody has ever proposed a system where you owe more than $1 on any $1 of income.

You didn't even read what I wrote. This was about income after taxes increasing when working less. Which happens in bracketted progressive tax systems.

>Yep, that's precisely the belief

I know. It is of course also the single easiest way to destroy any economy.

I really hate it if people like you just pretend to argue for something you don't really believe in.
Google isn't a "steward" of anything. They are an entity concerned with expanding their own power. And there is absolutely nothing that you, or I, or any other browser maker, can do about it.

But at the very least, we can be honest. If Mozilla published a blog post today that said something like "While we are ideologically opposed to WebEnvironmentIntegrity, we will almost certainly be forced to implement it in Firefox eventually", my respect for them would rise tremendously.

Firefox has lost. There is no shame in admitting it. But there is shame in pretending it isn't so.
Things like that are easy enough to set up on Raspbian with a script. You also need a bunch of tmpfs mounts, including some in crazy places(Regular Pi has a log file under ~/.cache that can fill disks and crash servers, and if you don't fix it Chromium writes seemingly useless crap constantly. There's auto updates on some systems, which is terrible if you're on a private WiFi, not doing internet stuff.

I'm not using zram at the moment, just getting rid of swap, but my current script to get a Pi ready for embedded projects is here: https://github.com/EternityForest/KaithemAutomation/blob/mas...
The reason I don't think this is the case is that they have literally been working on this thing for a quarter of a century. While the people involved are not full on superconductor experts, they are also not super stupid and realize that their claim is a huge one.

How could you work on something for years and years and years, make a claim that it is the first room temperature SC and be _totally_ wrong about it. Even if they only worked on it for ten years, I don't think they are totally wrong.

I think what has happened is that they rushed to publish the paper and the reason it has not been replicated is that they don't even know how to reliably make the material yet. This is why the methods to make it are not in the paper -- because they don't even know how to do it.

Remember they were forced to publish this paper by a rogue former employee.
My hot take: they're a pain in the ass to use for very much. Compared to frameworks in userland, they're cumbersome and don't add value. Frameworks make other things better (besides the problems web components solve), making web components an implementation detail. If you're using React, you have no reason to consider web components.

In my entire career, I've had one use case that web components were perfect for: framework agnostic component interfaces. I specced the use case for a product at Stripe [0] and it was wildly successful. What it solved was avoiding the need to ship a library for each framework to embed our components: you just used HTML. Web components are perfect for this, because they are the lowest common denominator that everyone supports. Even if you're not using a framework, you can still embed the components with no real effort. That's the best I can say about web components, though.

What does this actually mean in practical terms. The military is going to invade Japan if they pare back investments in US bonds?
This probably had some logic historically with landlines—a neighbor is calling. It’s an anti-pattern for cell phones in the “wrong” area code. Used to get this a lot. Rarely today.
A lot of municipalities offer this already. Doesn't hurt to ask.
That answers the "what does it actually do" part, but not the "how".

Github and hackernews are both places where developers exchange ideas, so it helps if you explain which tech you build on and what challenges you faced.
Big "will this do?" homework energy, padding lists to make teacher's eyes glaze over
Key point, resistance is the real part of impedance. The imaginary part, or inductance and capacitance, are not zero in a superconductor.
I'm just having a laugh that there's still like 4 instances on that page alone where twitter is still a thing.

Bird for sharing. Twitter down the bottom of the page. Primary light blue color.

Also, for some reason the X on the favicon for this site is orange???

If you go onto twitter.com without being signed in, it says "Join twitter today"

What a laugh this rebranding is.
Dead links do not a circus make.

Tell me: Is it safer for People of Color, LGBTQ individuals and such to be there? Because that used to be a huge circus.

I killed my "Oh, God, this was a bad idea" personal account and haven't yet figured out what to do with the account I have left. So I don't really know.

Which is to say the question is sincere.
I used to watch this on YouTube regularly until right about when the city tried to make the underpass deeper.

It didn't help, hah.
As a lay person not graduated in STEM subjects, can someone ELIFY how is this research useful to society?
On the other hand it seems there's also a lack of testing subjects. It's already frequently pointed out how medical results might not represent everyone. I would also assume that e.g. pharmaceutical certification processes do apply more sophisticated statistics.
Ah, I see you have not met a biophysicist.
Is the goal is to make the everything app minus the legacy microblogging bits? Trying to find patterns in chaos.
It's amazing how they managed to spin rate limits as anti-spam features. Also, no mention of crippling twitter for non-logged in users.
Someone should just lobby the FCC under the group "coalition of RDOF success" and say they don't need anything and that the FCC should penalize any winner who doesn't deliver 2x the amount of their award.

No need to disclose who is part of the group, it could be anyone or no one just like this group.
It's a prescient statement with regard to the cold war.
I didn't downvote you, but in this very article itself that these comments are discussing, the German scientists talked about how it's possible that even if Germany had developed the bomb, perhaps all they would've been able to do is destroy London and a few other cities but still lose the war.
Can you recommend some FDIC insured options with 5.15%?
The report uses commercial charges for 75% of the time and adds road tax on top of it.
Looks like someone doesn’t like electric cars
It's bold to assume this company still has communications people.
A flat tax rate means e.g. 10%.

You claimed it is "everyone pays the same amount".

>I suspect you misread what I wrote as "a flat income tax", which is ironic since it is the terminology actually used by these candidates, even though I understand it to imply a flate tax rate.

You are the one single person which doesn't understand that the politicians mean e.g. "10%". But instead you thought they meant everyone pays 1k. Just stop pretending.
Likewise and you seemingly have to wait until the end of the month for invoicing (and activation?) 3.5 doesn’t work for my use case and so I’m just having to loop queries to run up billing for no purpose.
You can see the standard here [1].

Of note are the Security Assurance Requirements (SAR) seen here [2] which discuss the certification process.

The Security Functional Requirements (SFR) seen here [3] are more focused on what you are certifying and the sorts of problems you are certifying to solve.

As seen in the SAR document [4], AVA_VAN.1 is "basic" with a public vulnerability search. AVA_VAN.2 is the same, but they do a independent pentest. AVA_VAN.3 is "enhanced basic", AVA_VAN.4 is "moderate", AVA_VAN.5 is "high". The EAL levels are listed here [5] and echo the same things I stated about their corresponding AVA_VAN assurance requirements. Historically, EAL4 (the highest level ever achieved by Microsoft for any product in any configuration) said something like: "protects against casual and inadvertent" attackers, so that should probably help you calibrate what "enhanced-basic" means.

As for what constitutes "high". You can see a OS certified against the SKPP [6] here [7] at EAL6+. A EAL6+ certification requires AVA_VAN.5 or equivalent. For the SKPP they use a equivalent, AVA_VLA_EXP.4, which requires the NSA to certify that it protects against the NSA (with full source code) as a proxy for a "high attack potential" actor.

Yes, that is a certification by the NSA certifying that the NSA can not hack the OS even with full source. This is the OS used on the F-35 and the certification was done to determine if it was acceptable to bet the entire US Air Force on the OS, so the NSA was not playing pretend in this case. That is what constitutes a "high attack potential" actor.

So the gap here is: "protects against casual and inadvertent attacks" vs. the literal NSA.

The funniest part is that literally everybody says they are being attacked by "nation-state" actors. If they really are being attacked by "nation-state" actors, then they should be using systems that have been proven and certified to protect against them, not systems proven and certified to protect against your roommate in college.

Maybe Google Street View drivers are penalized for stopping the same way Amazon fulfillment workers are penalized when they take a pee break?

In all seriousness though, there could probably be a Wikipedia page dedicated to Street View drivers involved in incidents. Incidents are bound to happen when you regularly drive on nearly every public street in the world.
To add to the other reply, it'd be a new class especially since it would be at standard pressure. I think the current highest Tc SC at standard pressure is at much lower temperatures. Frankly, there's probably a lot that you can do with a superconductor that you can cool with liquid nitrogen even if it can't carry much current or handle high magnetic fields. Moving from liquid helium cooling to liquid nitrogen alone significantly reduces the cost and complexity of your cooling system.
Django + Unicorn has a similar goal except:

- you still use html and a templating language for the views

- it mostly looks like old ssr code but you can transparently call methods on the server (like meteorjs)

- you get one of the best ORMs in existence with great relationship handling and generated admins

Not 1.0 yet but I'm using it in production and omgosh is it easy to crank out UIs.
> Your stake should grow or shrink by the same factor if you win or lose.

In what sense "should" this be true?
I don't use Photoshop, but can you pin CC to an older version like 2020? I thought as a subscription they did mandatory version upgrades.

That site says that 2021 and 2022 are both considered garbage.
I wonder what scared them.
Electrolytes? Better conduction of EMF? Just a guess.
Just make pure and consistent heroine available cheap and they'll stop dying. People just need support through their low point and patience to make it through the other side.

Cynicaly, that requires empathy and helping other people so we'll just increase enforcement and crack down harshly and keep failing lol

> uses standard languages, doesn't require a compiler

It recommends a build step, but yes, you can use it without one. Also, TypeScript isn't a standard language. So if you're using .ts you may as well use .svelte.

> is faster

I don't know that Svelte has been benchmarked with custom elements. Either way it's plenty fast.

> is smaller as you amortize the library size over a collection of elements

That's kind of a funny thing to worry about. It has improved in Svelte 4, though. https://svelte.dev/blog/svelte-4 I also don't know that Lit is so small in practice. With Lit you get to use map and the ternary operator and all that jazz, like React. https://lit.dev/docs/templates/conditionals/
ESG is a deeply problematic concept but a world without any "esg" concerns at all is a terminal world with an expiry date fairly close. So the positive attitude is to see the glass as 5% full rather than 95% empty and see what could be the next step.

Unbundling the acronyms is the obvious first concern. They smack of a kitchen sink approach to everything the corporate thinks is a reputation risk. As factors they have no internal coherence.

Then, for each of the underlying issues one must clarify and distinguish whether it is an assessment of current state of the world or future risks (and to whom, what? earnings, value, reputation, clients, mother earth etc).

Finally, even in the most tractable case (accounting for current co2 emissions, which is a tiny fraction of environmental footprint and says nothing about the future) there is a mountain of methodological challenges to climb: Who is emitting, who is enabling it, who is demanding it, who benefits most etc. The modern economy is a giant hairball of dependencies yet we like to ignore all that.

The "ESG period" of the sustainability transition is the financial system taking a first peek at the actual state of the world as opposed to "the number goes up". Its no surprise that many just want to close the lid and pretend they never saw anything. But its not possible unless we accept we are an amoral last generation that devolves into a madhouse.

It took credit ratings a century to mature and they are still heavily gamed / leading to systemic crises. What makes you think this existential question for the unhinged corporate profit-focused entities that dominate modern economic life will get resolved any sooner?

There is a long, long road ahead. But if you look for purpose look no further.
This is one of the most strawman (to put it mildly) things I have ever read.
The current is ridiculously large and would lead to an unacceptably high power consumption and thermal expansion with the resistivity of even a good metal (copper).

What is one of your package dependencies dependencies have an exploit?

Overall, nice idea and demo. I’d be a bit hesitant to run, but creative implementation
I think you have an excellent analogy. The thing I like about it is it includes the fact that there is often a large cost for not taking risk. I feel like a lot of otherwise smart people get caught up in avoiding risk buy overlooking the cost to do so.

In my opinion there's a hierarchy of understanding but I've gone through. The first is not understanding risk, followed by understanding risk and avoiding it, followed by understanding the cost of avoiding risk and trying to find the right level.

Like you point out, the cost of avoidance can be quite substantial.
Spam calls are already generally illegal, it's a matter of enforcement:

Unfortunately, we live in the age of TikTok. Videos on their own bring no more credibility than written text; they no longer evince a substantively greater investment of resources. I'm more inclined toward the cheerleading section of the LK-99 audience, but watching the videos I realized now is a perfect opportunity to apply recalibrated B.S. detectors.
WEI is cryptographic.

All the previous restrictions have had some form of workaround, but without the keys, you're not going to get past remote attestation.

Governments are scared that people will use encryption against them.

Now we should be scared that companies are using encryption against us.

I'm not in favour of banning encryption either, but the situation is more subtle. Encryption is a weapon, and not surprisingly that's why it was classified as such and strongly controlled only a few decades ago, so I don't expect there to be an easy way to solve this ...just like the debate around 2nd Amendment.
