So lets look at how the refrigeration cycle works here and make some conjectures. If I understand correctly, this kind of system removes heat from one side and moves that heat out the other side. An AC unit with a structure as a barrier is a machine that removes heat from the confined structure and vents it to the outside. So, with enough AC units removing heat from sealed structures and outputting it into the atmosphere, seems plausible that getting enough of them together would behave like a kind of heater.

Now, how did the air inside these structures get warmed up in the first place? Under normal conditions, is the air inside the structures WARMER than the ambient air? Does the structure itself somehow more efficiently harness the suns energy to warm the structure more than the ambient outside air?

If the same energy source is heating the ambient air and the air inside the structures - and it is - its the sun here, don't we have a constant amount of energy warming the area? Some of that energy warms outside, some of it warms inside, but the amount is constant.

So how could a device that removes heat from structures to vent it outside be responsible for a warming of the outside air? Unless the AC itself added some extra heat energy in the process OR the structures somehow more efficiently turned solar energy into heat, how could moving heat around cause a temperature increase?

For example - on a warm day in a little European village, everyone lights a gigantic fire and adds non-solar heat to their homes. The devices that remove the heat would then be adding new energy to constant solar energy heating the town. Ambient temperatures would likely rise. But did the AC cause the temperature increase? Didn't the AC unit just move heat from structure to ambient? The AC added no heat in this case.
One aspect I rarely seen mentioned is The price of these canned coffees in Japan. I remember most ranging from 100-250 yen ($1-2 when I last visited). As a tourist that was the biggest selling point for me, getting pretty good coffee warm or cold in seconds.

Sadly every time I see some mention of UCC or Boss coffee I spend a few minutes browsing to see if it can be imported near that price. Lately though it has been getting better with occasional sale on Amazon making them a nice treat.
Wiring the stuff to do it yourself isn't the worst in the world. When the pandemic started and I was cloistered inside and cabin-feverish, I found a blog post that had a link to the following: https://github.com/Dhole/gb-link-stm32f411 and I bought a board to run that code on. I wasn't able to figure out how to actually write out the raw data as a png so I wrote a script to take the data and convert them to pngs myself. Now that the operator exists (I don't think it did in 2020) that'd be the solution I'd use, but failing that, there's always the microcontroller route.
Considering that the tropics only contain a third of the land mass it makes sense for humanity to not fight this warming.

How is anyone underpaid? If they agree to the negotiated compensation, isn't that equitable?

Let's say there is an employer who systematically wants to underpay women to save money by exploiting the pay gap. If there are no women in agreeing to the pay the employer will adjust upward in an attempt to either hire women or ignore the disparity, pay more, and appear bias.

I would argue that women who want more pay must discriminate more than their potential employer.

At the very minimum they should not be a cop. Better still would be if we considered this a serious felony and a cop who did this was liable to trade in their blue uniform for an orange one. I doubt this will happen in my lifetime.

Portless Ports: Demystifying Kubernetes Port Forwarding
This post delves into a puzzling issue within Hexmos' infrastructure: "Why are Kubernetes
ports not visible in standard port listing?" . We'll explore the concept of iptables, the Kubernetes network layer, and even dive into a fun network simulation to uncover why this happens.
As someone who also writes a lot of shell scripts and has for decades, I’d guess that if you learn just a little make, you’ll find lots of non-coding uses for it and wish you’d learned it earlier. ;) It’s just another great unix tool that is sometimes very handy to augment shell scripts when you need it, not unlike find+grep+sort, cut+join, awk+sed, gnu parallel, etc.. I think make is under-appreciated for its uses outside of code compilation. I use it anytime I’m making gnuplots, or doing image processing on the command line, for example. Whenever you have a batch of files to process, and the batch might need to re-run, and it transforms into other files or a single big file, then make may be the right tool

Make has at its core one thing that would be pretty tedious to do in shell scripts: update the target (output) file only if it’s older than the prerequisite (dependency/input) file(s). This applies transitively to files that depend on other files that might change during the run of make, which is the part that really separates make from a shell script.

The thing you do when the target needs updating is run a little snippet of shell script, so that part you already know.

After learning how a rule works, you can combine it with ‘pattern rules’ to abstract a rule over all files that share a common prefix or common extension. Suddenly you have a loop but without any loop syntax, and can process a thousand files on demand with 2 lines of make - and without modification you can change a single input file, have it process only a single output file, and not waste your time re-running the 999 other files.

Also pro-tip: make will run in parallel if you use -j, and it will do it without breaking any dependency chains. If you have a process that turns text files into sql files and then turns this sql files into html files (possibly nonsensical example), make running in parallel will not blindly update html files first, it will run parallel jobs in the correct dependency order. You can use make to build something like gnu parallel, but is able to resume a batch job that was interrupted in the middle!
I can’t say I know the percentage of Linux servers running ASP.NET Core but the percentage of ASP.NET Core apps running on Linux is no longer negligible. Bing runs it on Linux, iirc.

I think that ship has sailed for a couple reasons.

First, your auto makers are losing the design and engineering knowledge to produce anything like a mechanical car. Take the basic things that went "electronic" long ago, like fuel injection. Do you think anyone knows how to make good carburetors, or has sources for the design files or a good way to stamp them out on the assembly line by now?

Secondly, you'll need a repair infrastructure. By now, the dudes who know how to repair mechanical cars and parts are a legacy breed, a niche market. Every repair shop needs OBD-II connections, hardware and software necessary to interface to the car's ECUs and do the diagnostics and settings tweaks necessary. Mechanics today are increasingly just computer programmers who can also swap out some hardware when the computer tells them to. They're not going to understand a carburetor even if the manufacturer does. It would be too expensive to keep that infrastructure around, in general.

Yeah it's a good dream to have 100% mechanical cars. I would say that farm equipment is probably a different proposition, because enough farmers are mechanically inclined that they could do repairs "at home" without any mechanics, so that's a viable market segment. But if I'm driving a car around a city and some warning light comes on, I'll want to drive/tow it into the nearest repair shop, and they'd better have equipment and expertise to get me back on the road ASAP.

As Tesla and other advanced EVs increase in market share, you're only going to see an increase in the "software developer" breed of auto mechanic, and necessarily a decrease in the mechanically-inclined ones. It's just the way of the world.
I mean they are pretty solidly up and to the right. Are there charts with data from the 60s/50s/40s that drastically change the trend?
Well, they can be effective as a prop to psychologically manipulate the subject into thinking you know when they’re lying, to try and pull out a confession. But that mostly only works if the subject doesn’t know it’s pseudoscience and believes polygraphs actually work…

From what the anti-polygraph people say, apparently it only takes about 30 minutes of training before most people can actually manipulate the polygraph in a controlled way.
Because eating less meat, stop taking the plane, reducing our consumption level, replacing cars with bikes and trains and other stuff like that seems radical to you ?
Audio software tends to experience breakage even after minor iOS releases. For example, Apple have once changed the in-memory format of MIDI sysex messages passed to the app in a dot release. Segfaults ensued. The particular callback wasn't documented well and some OS behaviors had to be inferred. Apple still went through with the change, not noticing or maybe not caring about consequences.
My first PC was a Pentium 90 with 16MB RAM in 1994. I bought it specifically to run Linux. I've never really used DOS/Windows as my main OS on my personal machine.

Everything was fast back then. I had X11, Netscape, ethernet in the dorm. In a lot of ways I prefer the simple text heavy web pages of the time.

I've been designing integrated circuits including many chips in popular smartphones, network switches, and more. We make stuff faster but software manages to expand making my 8 core CPU with 64GB of RAM feel about the same when web browsing compared to back then.

I don't want to go back to those days but in many ways my computer with multiple X terminals, XFCE desktop, and Firefox, is extremely similar.
The future is fundamentally uncertain. Climate change will be addressed but not by corporate welfare programs like net zero nor by impoverishing rich populations.

The idea that the simplistic socio-economic models/pathways are in any way right or predictive was just a fantasy.
I’m talking specifically about the data from before that infrastructure existed.
Agreed - but if they're no longer able to effectively testify in court, they'd presumably no longer be able to do real police work - at best they'd be put in some administrative duty.
Companies should start annual reporting on burnout – and how to do it
On the other hand, looking at lived experience the story is quite tricky.

From the perspective of an individual it is very hard to detect this level of climate change. I can't tell how much warmer any given month was compared to even 20 years ago. We're talking about 28 vs 28.5°C average for a month. (and July and August made news because of pronounced anomalies, other months were probably even murkier stories due to natural monthly variability). This is not perceptible. And no one has an experiential reference point of Average Global Temperature of the 20th Century.

How hot was May of 2003 compared to May of 2023? I could attempt a guess but have zero confidence in it. Do you remember the average temperature of your teenage years summers? "It was hot", "between 25-30..." is all I can give without looking at data.

This is something we should keep in mind when advocating for climate measures, otherwise sceptics have another easy attack - "it feels basically the same, what are you talking about"
I get that, but I am wondering if there is a legal right to privacy here.

chew out the boss regularly, but are absolute saints to the lower level "doers".

i don't think that is manipulative, unless it is extreme. this is the behavior that you want. treat your subordinates with respect and move problems that you can't fix on your own up the chain.

the thing is, if every level works that way then you don't usually need to chew out your boss, nor need your subordinates chew out you.

„It's weird to say, but we should crash the economy if it can slow down climate change.“

You can do this exactly once. Afterwards the cause will be severely discredited and no candidate doing even moderate climate change policies will be able to be elected.

In short this is stupid.
That's a common thing for TV cops to say, but it isn't actually a part of your Miranda rights.
There is a Wayland branch on the collabora gitlab where devs first started developing Wayland support for those who don't want to wait and can build from source.

It's going to be fairly different from the wine mainland after all the reviewing. But for those who don't want to wait a few months for that review process it works pretty flawlessly from what I saw.

Try PopOS if you want a Linux desktop environment that's not painful to use and looks modern.

Gnome 4 just looks alien. They've abandoned every common desktop metaphor and replaced it with a scuffed android launcher.
The 2030s is when I think things are going to start getting serious.
You point to Nix as if it was doing anything whatsoever the remove difficulty. You are replacing the entire libc. There's practically no benefit whatsoever to a prefix-install, Nix, a container, or whatever you want. You are going to hit the same issues whether you do this with Nix or you do this with plain old chroots. At the end of the day you'll have to use a chroot or ld/elf trickery anyway since the game binary will expect the libraries in hardcoded paths.

You'll hit build issues, bootstrap issues (at which point you'll likely need an old Linux on a VM), kernel issues (which will force you to either patch the kernel, the libc, or both), and then a myriad of desktop integration issues, which is as usual the pain point and the main reason I always say static linking is absolutely useless for forward compatibility. For example, the game will try to set a rare resolution & refresh rate using Xrandr (good luck!), or will try to use OSS (for which user-space emulation with LD_PRELOAD is almost always useless, the in-kernel one prevents you from using pulseaudio, and CUSE doesn't support mmap which a shitton of games use), or even expect some specific behavior from the window manager, etc.

With more recent software, you'll hit issues with the software expecting some D-Bus services e.g. such as project utopia (yet another Linux desktop compatibility disaster that has been quickly forgotten by everyone involved, except for the software that decided to embrace it and now will never run again). In these cases building the libraries is only half the way...

That said, it's still true that a lot of times having the source available for all the underlying libraries is what makes these things possible _at all_.

C++ doesn't have bounds checks in the std library in release builds by default, so you can't get better than that.

Your reaction is like criticizing a talk which shows sorting 5 numbers with programs,

It is not, because this idea that loops and bounds checks are complex in the first place isn't true. No other language invests so much complexity in a simple problem that is barely an issue in modern languages in the first place.
What does “as a founder” have to do with it? New species of human?

Some people just want power and ego and status, some people just want things to be simple and not change from what they know, and a significantly smaller number of people just want to be chill and sensible.
They may never explicitly admit this, but proponents of "just stop using oil" do intend the mass death outcome. Of course, they have nothing but Good Intentions, these people believe that a steep drop-off in population is inevitable, and they'd rather effect it sooner than later.
Yep. AIUI, Miranda's only change to the status quo was to make it mandatory for the cops to _tell_ you what the status quo is.

Prior to Miranda they didn't have to tell you shit, and were probably justifying it to themselves with some lame "Ignorance of the law is no excuse, so if you don't know that you have a right to an attorney, that there is no 'off the record' conversation with a cop, and that you don't have to tell us shit, then that's your own damn fault." justification.
I'm a big time proponent of Google Cloud because I believe that they've done a few things particularly well in their overall architecture that others have gotten wrong.

But this decision rubs me the wrong way because there's a deep integration with several of the services that allow connecting an external domain. The verification of domain ownership with Google purchased domains was effectively seamless and aligned with this overall architecture principle of Stuff That Just Makes Sense.

I still think that GCP is a great platform to build on, but the problem now is that they've further tarnished their image to other stakeholders who have a say in the platform decision making process.
I think the latest neuroscience would disagree.

Maybe if you cut open a brain, you wont find a printout with backpropagate code.

But you do find neurons, in a network.

Humans do learn right? They take in information and encode it in their brain.

Why does it have to be back propagation to qualify. Bayesian? Minimum Entropy?

There are a lot of forms a machine neural network can take. There are a lot of theories on exactly how the brain 'calculates'/'processes'. With all of the advancements in Neuroscience and AI in last 5 years, it is bit hubris to say we'll never be able to figure out the brain, and also be able to model it.

There are a lot more like this. The field is moving too rapidly for me to go find every paper today. But it is dozens, and not even so cutting edge there isn't already books on it.

Hence, nobody is doing enough to make them "not" in the news anymore. Meaning making good progress on solving them.
Sure, probably that was oversimplified. Let's say "don't develop carbon capture before science has found a fundamentally new way to do it without needing a lot of energy".

The Silicon Valley way of "I will throw money at it and develop a product and a whole infrastructure that relies on the fact that some chemist will make a Nobel Prize in the meantime" is honestly a bit ridiculous to me.

It is like developing spaceships to send humanity on another planet without realizing that we need fundamentally new physics if we ever hope to reach even the next solar system 4.5 light-years away.

What's dangerous is that it convinces people that we are "on track" to do it. And actually we could not be further away: we miss fundamental science to go there. It's just that it's easier to do the engineering than to solve the fundamental science problem, and let's be honest, engineers love those problems.

It may be debatable but the idea the chip surge is “basically over” is laughable. By your logic no nation should ever try to do anything economically because the economy is already done forming, the end of history is here.
No, I got it right the first time: it's cynicism that rots brains. Cynicism sounds smart, but pretty much never is. Both optimism and skepticism are good. But cynicism is bad.

The comment I replied to was cynicism rather than skepticism.
Hey petee, we find your feedback to be very valuable (and not rude at all). Good and honest feedback like this will help us improve our product over time. The free market is a lot more ruthless than HN commenters.
If policies don't drastically change. Just imagine norwegian electric car subsidies but happening everywhere decades straight - for solar, wind, tidal, battery, pumped water stations, sand batteries. Perhaps a Sahara -> Europe solar megaproject (I remember a good discussion on HN about that).

Separately, I wonder if a geoengineering megaproject is more likely to be funded than small incremental changes due to politicians perceiving more immediate ROI, peer clout, and poll ratings.
