There is nuance. Recycling exports have declined from the US [1], and a significant amount of the recycling stream of little value (non metals) is landfilled instead now [2] [3] (a quick google search will confirm, although some of my info comes from a family friend in a mid level management position at Waste Management). With that said, waste management (the practice) is atrocious or non existent outside of the developed world [4]. And even in the developed world, people still litter [5]. So! We can't use plastic, because we are collectively irresponsible. Maybe we hope it'll end of landfilled after its useful service life, but hope is not a strategy.

>Nonetheless, this is better than having no empiricism or scientific method at all and having models built based on some logical axioms treated as the ultimate truth

Like theories built on mathematics or logic?

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not shilling Austrian economics and I disagree with most assumptions of pure rationality, but I think an axiomatic approach to human decision making is not necessarily a bad thing. I’m sure preferences and biases have some mechanism we can quantify and explain from first principles.

XInclude is just like XML External Entities in that it never should have existed because of the glaring security issues.

Worse is that it seems most XML parsers have XXE's enabled by default.
Which would mean all 5 of these measures are purely about production which gives an incomplete picture. The problem with single use plastics isn't the production. That is why they became so popular. The main concern is what happens to the plastic after that single use. For example, how many microplastics does a cotton bag keep out of the ocean?

Well that could explain The Rings of Power getting 83% on Rotten Tomatoes. I certainly can't think of any other explanation.
Would you like more of the front page to be people lobbing vague allegations at YC funded companies? The only reason it isn't flagged to death is because they make a point of staying out of YC stuff, it's definitely not front page material.

"New" is very relative. GSM phone communication protocol from late 80s was intentionally sabotaged to have 54-bit crypto keys so it could be easily attacked.

> Only in some areas is recreation the primary threat to conservation. Usually it's something more like logging, mining, or simple development that threatens a natural area.

When I last visited Rocky Mountain National Park, it was quite clear that the park's existence itself was detrimental to conservation. Even while I was there, a black bear had been hit by a car and several other wildlife killed by vehicles getting into and out of the park. The trails were packed and people swimming in unauthorized ponds and lakes, leaking sunscreen, bug spray, and whatever else contaminates into the water and other such harmful behavior. There was little understanding from visitors that we were in someone else's home, where they fight for survival and aren't just there for recreation.

It became quite clear that they are going to have to start limiting visitation and closing off areas of the park to cars.

Some of the best conservation I have seen is done by non-government foundations that have very specific trails and subsequently limit and even outright prevent any expansion whatsoever. In otherwords, they just let nature alone.
> It's variable in my experience

It shows you a code when the initiator is an unfamiliar device, but doesn't show you the code when the initiator is a familiar device. You can reproduce this fairly easily - open a private tab and try to login - you'll see the code in your app. Then logout and login again without closing the tab - you won't see the code.

Which actually makes sense, if not well-explained to users.

You don't have to like the decisions your leaders make, but that doesn't inherently make them bad leaders just because the team isn't 100% on board.

No no, I'm not saying this at all. I'm completely fine with the leader making the decision, I just have an issue with the narrative that they're a "servant" serving the team. And if no one is suggesting this, why call it "servant leadership"?

That is what I mean by "fake masking." All of the best leaders I've encountered are cognizant of the fact that they are in charge and thus have more responsibility and decision-making power – and don't try to pretend that somehow they are "servants."
Who gives a damn if the city "loses money" on parking?

I had to delete a few versions of this comment because I got dizzy with anger.

What is wrong with people thinking government should make net profit on fees from every individual service?

Perhaps transit and parking charge nominal fees to ensure the users of said services aren't abusing a limited resource. But the cost of operating city services should ultimately come from taxes.

A city should not have the profit expectations of a publicly traded company.
There are undoubtedly elastic regions of plastic material but there are very few plastics with a linear relationship of stress strain (aka Young’s modulus). This is why for most FEA, the stress strain ratio is a lookup table rather a constant for plastic material. In addition, some plastic exhibit a non-Newtonian property. Long story short , Young’s modulus is not applicable for plastic parts. Also, it is not true all solids must have a one.

That's not the right analysis. If the hydrocarbons in the ground don't get used for making plastic, they are very likely to be burned for energy. So waste plastic reduces the CO2 emitted by that process.
What I'd like some of the more reputable sites to do would be to expose/publish all the underhanded and over the top attempts by interested parties to influent their takes so like the folks at RedLetter Media, RogerEbert, etc. Redact names perhaps but publish the offers they get.

That's a small number of uses for a cotton tote bag, which should last several years of daily wear.

Who uses it every day? My trips to get groceries are every week or two weeks. I'd have a decent chance of misplacing the thing before I offset its carbon. If I forgot it just once and had to turn the car around to get it I'd probably double its footprint.
These fluff pieces are so predictable and uninspiring. There are tons of qualified and interesting people working in AI and they holds diverse range of viewpoints.

The ability to block SEO garbage sites like GeeksForGeeks and not filling the first 3-5 results with ads is worth it alone. Not to mention the ability to boost certain sites results over others on a personalized level. Unfortunately for me, I end up regularly going over the "Pro" tier of searches a month (partially because I accidentally search all the time, but also I'm heavy search-engine user) is a bit of a letdown. At least they have an option to purchase additional searches instead of going up to the rather expensive unmetered tier.

> Having a lien on future taxpayers is literally the only difference between taxpayer funded defined benefit pension funds and 401K/IRA.

The other difference is that the governmental authority cannot "borrow" money from the pension fund if each employee owns his or her own 401K account.

The problem with a lot of these insolvent pension funds is that they are nothing but a stack of IOUs.
The list of failures is so long how much security engineering took place at Microsoft?

It is possible the crash that contained the race condition was planned. But how would anyone know the race condition existed? We know now so it is likely, based upon the successful attack, it was known prior to the key being exfiltrated. How many of our organizations have the same race condition and our keys are/have been vulnerable? No one else has keys that are valid for more than a year, right?

Let's say the race condition was unknown to the attacker. How can the attacker find the key in the dump? Did they have a scanning tool looking for key data? If so, how long was that running on MS network before it found the keys in the dump file? How many of our organizations' keys are in dump files? Are they all expired?
> Yes, gender is derivative of psychological sex (or what is often called gender identity, though that is a confusing label because it's not quite like other kinds of identity).

No, gender is a product of society, it is a socially ascribed trait, within a socially constructed system.

Gender identity is a product of internal biological (including
paychological, which is an epiphenomenon of biology) reality interacting with social context including social gender constructs. Calling it psychological sex is odd but saying that gender is a derivative of it is wrong (its true that there is an emerging belief that gender should be ascribed on the basis of it, but that's different.)

> It is certainly not a social fabrication though.

Gender, including the somewhat popular binary construction of it, is very much a social construct. “Fabrication” is not inaccurate, either.
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. This is just another proof point, you may even be able to use it to raise more capital.

Oh, I don't dispute that maybe very modern cars have addressed this. I don't swap cars too often and have been pretty happy with my "one transmission, a planetary reduction gearbox" car (maybe there are 2 transmissions, one on the front motor and another on the rear motor? Regardless, there's a static gear ratio that's always engaged).

The lag is only part of the issue -- it's the determinism of the lag -- the 125ms lag between "more power please" and getting more power is actually more lag than the instant ka-chugachug of asking for more power and getting feedback of "you're in the wrong gear, bubba" if you're in a manual transmission car.

As far as "I won't change gears for you unless you ask" transmissions -- I've never driven such a car, I'm sure they're quite nice. I somewhat dislike the gear changers with no affordance to indicate what gear you're in (this applies to wingding manumatic cars, motorcycles, and modern bicycles with thumb / finger triggers) -- I don't use them often enough to have the muscle memory of "up for lower gear ratio" or whatever, I have to think about it and look at an indicator and fiddle with it to get the right ratio for what I want.

I'm sure with practice it would eventually be fine; but in actuality I've found that the electric car is actually exactly what I want.
For a really scary minute there I thought someone had implemented some interop between react and tcl.
> as old as social media

Even older, in fact. "Payola" in the radio industry went on for years before it was legitimized, and outside of that is just bribery. Bribery that borders on just "an advertising budget" depending on one's ethics: if you pay a barkeep to put your flyer on the wall, is it bribery or just the barkeep selling an impression slot?

Usually the ethical line in the sand is disclosure, but that line is crossed so often that it's not a bad mental shortcut to skip the question and just assume that any public space or celebrity figure advocating for something got paid to do it, in cash or favors.
The clones copying the product overnight is probably a good hint that they could execute better.
I already explained my reasoning in detail, which you have avoided addressing. If so many of the audience want to express disagreement with the speaker that there is no consensus on shushing or ejecting the hecklers, then maybe the speaker's ideas are terminally unpopular.

If you won't engage with the arguments I took time to lay out in depth, then you're just stamping your foot and insisting that your point of view should carry the day because you have repeated it so many times without elaboration.
I kinda wish there was a sort of proper blog-DMOZ. Would make this sort of stuff a lot easier. Right now everyone and their grandma is curating their own blog list. Lots of wasted effort that could be saved by collaborating somehow.

Not sure if it's related to this specific parking meter deal, but I'll share my worst Chicago parking horror story:

It's Black Friday, maybe 2010. My siblings and I go out for a drink somewhere downtownish. Street parking is tight. So we pull into parking for a corner business center (anchored by a bank, with a few other retail stores, all closed for the evening). There's some tiny "no parking here unless you're a business patron" sign that we genuinely don't see.

After our very happy evening drinking reasonably-priced Chicago beverages, we return to the car.

It's got a boot on it. The guy who installed the boot is just sitting there in his truck, waiting for us to get back. He tells us that we parked illegally and need to pay $150 (maybe more? at least that) to get the boot off.

Something about it felt like society was eating itself alive. Just funneling money into some cynical investors' bank accounts while restricting us from making use of totally available, no-cost resources (an empty lot) that are themselves supported by ux taxpayers.

Why do we do this to ourselves?
Dr Stephen Wolfram – The Impact of ChatGPT [video]
For me the critic score is a 'is this valuable as a cultural enrichment of movies' vs 'do people like it'.

What you do with information is than your decision.

Best case you know and trust your critics because you align to a certain degree with their experience and movie taste.

For example "now you see me" is a shit movie. Magic in a movie doesn't work and the main hidden character basically breaks the whole movie but apparently the audience loved it.
I still don't see it. What in that paragraph is hyperbole or extreme language? That reads pretty bland, to be honest.

For those interested in Chinese-language computing, there's a fascinating rabbit hole.

In too-brief summary, character-based Chinese has almost died twice in modern history.

First, with the typewriter, where a mechanically unique typewriter had to be invented to span the Chinese character alphabet.

Second, with early low-bit computers, where the address space was insufficient to span the character alphabet, and what's essentially a multi-character-to-single-character encoding had to be invented.

More detail: https://www.radiolab.org/podcast/wubi-effect-2308

It'll be curious to see how the LLMs evolve, given have alphabetically distinct Chinese is.
In the UK shops have to charge for bags, think it's about 10p or more for the better quality ones.

Tbh it's easier to just bring your own bags, for a big grocery shop I have 2 bags lined with foil insulation to keep cold items cool. They're super easy to pack if you're smart with your item placement and super easy to get into the car. Cost about £20 from Amazon but you can probs find cheaper ones.

Box office draw? Or maybe the "legs" (how long a movie stays in the theater). You would need to adjust for movie type though, you wouldn't want to directly compare an independent documentary on an obscure subject vs. Disney's latest Marvel movie with a 500 million dollar marketing budget.
I also have the somewhat controversial opinion that things like bitcoin are useful because they create static but easy to shed demand.

So to explain what I mean by that in depth - the economic losses from shutdown are limited to production losses during the shutdown, and there is no loss of inventory, or other secondary losses like process startup and shutdown for a refinery, semiconductor fab, or other kinds of manufacturing which product a physical good.

This static load absorbs some of the excess generation from wind and solar, thereby keeping the spot price in the grid high enough that thermal generation is still cost effective to build and operate.

Now, that all said, I dont think we should be paying them to shut down, they should just be disconnected wholesale from the grid during periods of ultra high demand as a condition of their interconnection to it. That said, we have programs designed to offset economic losses from disconnection from the grid during high use periods, and the bitcoin plants are just using that existing mechanism - I have mixed feelings about it, but I dont think its all bad.
Also broken CAPTCHA page for me.

Any code that's written from scratch is automatically assigned copyright to the creator or their employer at the time of creation. API's are probably considered copyrighted by the courts but getting any kind of remedy for that will be exceedingly difficult after Google vs. Oracle.

The average user is not capable of running that themselves.

Your ISP can potentially see queries if you do this also, so if you don't trust your ISP, or worry about what they may be forced to do by your government, it may not suit.

Further, DNS really benefits from caching as it scales up. As someone who runs my own resolver locally myself, I can attest to the sometimes long delay to resolve a hostname (requiring multiple external requests as the tree from root server is recursively queried).

I still run my own recursive resolver, I find it the best option overall, so ultimately I agree with your statement. But like anything there are trade-offs.
