The heat is constantly leaking into the buildings too. I'd be more concerned with differences in efficiency with direction that you mention at the end. In any case, the net result is still negative, so how much negative is still the question that stands.
>If the C3S dataset only currently starts in 1979, how can you then provide temperatures relating to the pre-industrial era?

>In order to relate global mean temperature derived from the C3S dataset (ERA5) to the pre-industrial era, we use the estimate that the 1981-2010 reference period is approximately 0.69°C and that the 1991-2020 reference period is approximately 0.88°C warmer than the period 1850-1900, the time period typically referred to as the pre-industrial level for temperatures by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

>Note that these estimates were updated during Autumn 2021, due to new findings published in AR6 WGI report “Climate Change 2021: The Physical Science Basis”. See more here under “Reference periods and anomalies”.

I’m sure this is all fine and valid, but they really need to work on their messaging. To a skeptic, this is gonna sound a lot like “oh yeah we pretty much just made the numbers up.”

Remember that we are talking about the company that invented "MFi", a DRM scheme for serial cables. I'm all for encouraging Apple to do the right thing, but it should not take a multi-trillion dollar company 17 iterations of iOS to support class-compliant USB devices. That's not encouraging at all.

You can do both - having solar panels over a reflective white roof (like the fancy newly discovered passive radiative cooling paints) helps increase PV output by cooling the panel.

The solar panels will still absorb and radiate heat back so you won't get as much cooling as you would have just with passive radiative cooling paint, but it'd be better than just solar on a regular roof in both ways (solar output and thermally).
I think it’s an ice age while any point on earth (not counting mountains etc.) has year-round ice. We’ll be in serious trouble long before that changes.

In the past, a woman had little chance of making a living of her own. That was the purpose of a dowry.
“enterprises often find themselves hindered by what are effectively “gaps between the rails,” with no direct connectivity between data, systems, and resources.”

I’m not sure moving to containers solves this unless it’s done intentionally. Bigger orgs will always have different parts of their systems built by different developers. Standardizing how applications are deployed will make it easier for them to work together, but there’s still going to be these gaps.
> It was the hottest August on record – by a large margin – and the second hottest ever month after July 2023, according to the Copernicus Climate Change Service ERA 5 dataset. August as a whole is estimated to have been around 1.5°C warmer than the preindustrial average for 1850-1900, according to the C3S monthly climate bulletin.

Thinking about getting to 1.5 C averaged over the planet is surreal and we are still 30 years out from the promised "net zero". We have some tough times ahead of us.
It's fine to just like what you like! There's nothing wrong with being happy with Starbucks. And yes, Starbucks deserves a lot of credit for promoting an interest in better quality coffee.

But a lot of what has attracted Starbucks' huge audience has been their very milky, sweetened, flavoured beverages that end up not being much of a coffee by the time they're consumed, and I think when people scoff at Starbucks, that's a big part of what they're reacting to. But I do think people who just have very milky coffee like cafe latte and flat white but then diss Starbucks are mostly just being snobbish.

I'm from Melbourne Australia, which several people in this thread have commented about, and I know what people are talking about, both those who talk about the good coffee here and those who talk about the superiority complex we have developed about it. I can see it both ways. Starbucks didn't take off here, not because people thought it was "bad"; we just didn't need it, as people already had favourite cafes serving coffee they really liked, so there was no need to change.

But the modern-day, 3rd-wave coffee snobbery thing arose a few years after that. On the one hand, like everything Melbourne claims to be better at, it can be a bit eye-rolly. On the other hand, my favourite coffee these days is long macchiato (I developed the taste for it when spending time in Italy and marrying into an Italian-Australian family), and even in Melbourne it can be hit-and-miss finding a cafe that does a long-mac "right"; I don't mean to be snobby about it, it's just about how I like it having developed a taste for it over several years. But it does make a difference that cafes here do try very hard to achieve very high standards in the coffee they serve, and people here really appreciate it.
If the earner dies: life insurance

It's not like we haven't solved these problems before. Yes, we could improve legislation around this but the basic idea is that if you have a contract with a partner where one of you earns the income and the other does the work at home then part of that contract is to recompense the person who is not working if the one who is fails to live up to their side of the bargain for whatever reason.

Interesting. I am new to the space and have never been exposed to the main alternatives you mention in the Readme. Here's my thoughts after taking 5 minutes through the doc:

I was interested by the "data" part of the framework that is mentioned in the tagline. I saw live updates, fast sync of data with the front-end.. that all seems nice and solves a real problem..

Do you have more advanced examples on hooking up a live streaming data feed and building dashboards over that live data?

I looked through the readme and documentation and all I found was an example about incrementing a counter when you click a button.

The bird changing hue was also a bit worrisome. In a sense it's great that it refreshed fast, but then it mentions it's refreshed by a timer? We clearly see a slider widget being manipulated, that means it should be changing a value in state and the UI should refresh when that value changes.. why is the timer needed?

My friends and I had only a few LAN parties that I can recall, at least ones that took place at any of our homes. There was, however, a PC repair shop in town that had a (pretty high-end for the time) LAN gaming room. I wanted to learn about computer repair, and so offered to work for them once a weekend or so, for a few hours, in exchange for learning about computer repair and free gaming for my friends and I. After raising an eyebrow, they agreed.

In the end, I don’t think I really learned all that much. (The solution was often to just backup what we could of a person’s storage and reformat.) But my friends and I had a good time at this shop, run by two computer geeks of an older generation, that was probably just a few years shy of being wiped out by the Geek Squad and Genius Bar.

Apart from that, my school district had a kind of magnet career skills center that offered a network administration course. On Fridays the instructor would let all of us in class play Counterstrike on the classroom’s LAN. I think that was put a stop to, however, after a district supervisor came into the room just as a student gleefully yelled, “Headshot!”
I remember at one of our LANs one of the "two hoses into an open bucket watercooling his Celeron" guys accidentally kicked out one of the hoses and went pumping water all over the floor. This was when an 8-port unmanaged 100 Mbit switch had just turned affordable to two early teens pooling their paper route savings together to buy one (finally! not three 10 Mbit hubs chained together!!), and of course it was lying on the floor in the middle of all the machines... The incident messed up all the LEDs and two of the ports but otherwise the switch kept working for years at my parents house.

We did have a DHCP server - my old Macintosh Centris 660AV running IPNetRouter. It was even routing a 56K dialup connection (that went down whenever someone ordered a pizza) which was completely useless.
I don’t think people suggest that carbon sequestration is an alternative to reducing emissions. It’s just that we have already emitted too much for net zero to be enough. We need to unburn a lot of coal to keep the planet comfortable.
Show HN: Python CLI for Compiling Jupyter Notebooks into FastAPI Apps
Hi HN!

I recently built Neutrino Notebooks, an open source python library for compiling Jupyter notebooks into FastAPI apps.

I work with notebooks a ton and typically find myself refactoring notebook code into a backend or some other python script. So, I made this to streamline that process.

In short, it lets you:

- Expose cells as HTTP or websockets endpoints with comment declaratives like `@HTTP` and `@WS`

- Periodically run cells as scheduled tasks for simple data pipelines with `@SCHEDULE`

- Automatic routing based on filename and directory structure, sort of similar to NextJs.

- Ignore sandbox files by naming them ‘_sandbox’

You can compile your notebooks, which creates a /build folder with a dockerized FastAPI app for local testing or deployment.

GitHub repo: https://github.com/neutrino-ai/neutrino-notebooks

Excited for feedback from the HN community
As with any foraging, you should also make sure that you know that you're actually harvesting purslane and not something else.

There are plants of a family called spurges that can be mistaken for purslane and are toxic. I don't have enough expertise to talk about how likely it is that you'll mistake spurge for purslane or how to identify.
Thank you. The world is amazing.
I get the anger tbh. Just give me any documentation and accessories, cables that came with the device. There's no need to expend effort on getting rid of thousands of manuals when you can just give each manual to the end users along with the monitor, probably in the same box it shipped.
Or maybe don't make a site generator and just make a website using HTML files? You'll spend a lot less time painting the shed and a lot more time actually putting your ideas/content on the website.

If you want templating then use server side includes. It's much less attack surface than say, PHP or some complex CMS, but you can still just make a footer.html and stick in at the bottom of every other .html page easily and avoid the one problem with file based sites: updating shared bits.
The same technology should work for them, I believe.
The conspiracy-minded part of me really wants to link this year to the sulfur reductions in ship emissions kicking in this year. The fact that there's basically only one person really trumpeting this in a way kind of indistinguishable from things I know are false is hard though.

Hank Green pointing out that we could just spray water into the air to get the same effect (and avoid the whole "sulfur" thing in general) gives me a modicum of hope. But If it's all true I just have so many doubts in being able to act on this nicely. How would you even police giant ships to make sure they keep the "water spraying gun" running all the time?
At least it'll be cheaper than existing offerings… hold on… I'm getting a message from the control booth… gold. It's made with actual gold.

Already expensive implants won't be getting any more affordable in the foreseeable future.
PCs used to be pretty costly. The long-time editor in chief of PC Magazine coined "Machrone's Law" that the PC you wanted always cost $5,000--and that held pretty well into at least the late 90s.

Supported Linux on one or two PC models is a pretty longstanding sideline of Dell's. They've had some version of Ubuntu on a laptop for a long time.
Some of us have the same experience with real life problems. It's fun to work on the problems for a little bit, but then the realization hits that it's arbitrary and it all seems pointless.

For some, there is no deeper meaning to be found.

At that point, you can either choose to sit and do nothing (die), or engage and play (live). Since the choice is meaningless anyway, you might as well follow the path that gives you happiness. Life is simply more pleasant that way. Along this road lies the pleasure of enjoying things as you did when you were a child, while also uncovering and solving new mysteries (as you did as a child).
Yeah definitely see mallow around Adelaide quite a bit too!

The photo for what the article called thistle looked a bit more like a dandylion-of-sorts to me, I'd usually expect thistle to be spikier, but maybe this is what young ones do look like? I've certainly seen some (very spiky, vaguely artichoke-like) thistles about in SA as well!
Wouldn't it be more efficient if we gave up the notion of individual housing, and all lived in barracks? Group kitchens, communal bathrooms, the whole deal. We could probably arrange for people to never leave the building, thus minimizing their impact on Nature and vice versa.

As I understand it, there was no glacial ice on earth during the Cretaceous. Water covered much more of the earth's surface. There were lots of dinosaurs, insects, and other biodiversity that thrived during this time.

Our current biodiversity evolved to fit cooler temperatures, obviously, so the quick change is a huge fitness gradient challenge that many species will not overcome. And in certain food webs, it may result in much larger scale collapse.
Huh, I previously skim-read the code and didn't notice the GEMINI regex detail. I wonder why they're doing that.

Re: namespace organisation. I thought about that a lot, and decided to adopt namespace-only convention for symmetry between text file layout, html file layout, and url scheme.

I've treated Date/time as metadata, which I can use to organise index pages. If I get to years worth of posts, then I'll group them by year/month or something reasonable. Likewise tags. I debated tags _and_ categories. But I decided on "everything is a post with tags, and categories will emerge based on topical coverage + post format".
Occam's razor is a tool not a proof.
At the end of the day, I think that you must respect a person's autonomy to listen to what they choose and to make up their own minds, even if they don't come to the conclusions that you want them to. Advocacy and change are ongoing processes. The real game over scenario comes with the government legally stifling dissent

Even if that is the case, the agriculture needed to feed the amount of people on the planet doesn't seem like it will survive and be efficient if this keeps on going. It doesn't matter if it's human-made or not, if we don't get it under control, a whole lot of people will die and the current amount of refugees will seem quaint in comparison.

The planet will probably be fine in a few hundred thousand years, it's just us humans that are not going to be here.
Phoenix has set another heat record by hitting 110 degrees on 54 days this year
>We have refrigerators, A/C and hot water heaters all in close proximity.

Maybe yes maybe no. My water heater is in the basement and I don't have AC. It would all have to be very house-specific and customized. And it would tie together what would otherwise be independent systems. A lot of complexity which is usually a bad thing especially at small scale.
The writers claim of `the extreme meritocracy of sports`is pretty amazing. Considering all the research into 'Everyone in Baseball is born in August' to the constant drum of doping scandal. Or people moving whole families, or rich buying second houses (near sky slopes) to pump their kids past the poorer competition, etc.

It's pretty crazy for anyone to imagine sports as 'meritocracy' when exact birth-day, parents wealth, school district/ college wealth, etc, clearly is a HUGE driver of sports outcome (1/4 ? 1/2 ? ). And that is not tying in genetics, or cheating, or more.

Scrape any 'meritocracy', and you'll find it a) by humans, b) in a culture, and underlying unfairness of the cultures still has a heavy impact.
> If you’re able to convince the other party that they are actually understood, then communication can happen.

This is spot on, I think. Usually people are angry because they feel that their routine has been disrupted/they're frustrated/etc, and are ready to fight. If you show that you understand them, sympathize, and will try to help them without a fight, they relax.
> You need to prohibit them worldwide, which requires plenty of coercion of other countries.

That's easy for economic blocks like the US and the EU. There's plenty of other regulations they have coerced other nations to follow.
I can't back it up because it was a televised congressional committee hearing and I don't remember the name of the scientist but he said that his data he had been studying and working with that was published in the 1940's was different from the data that is now published for that same time period. He made no accusations he just said his data showed no signs of global warming. So, I guess as a skeptic, yes this does make me think they are making it all up.
The way some diamonds (say a 2 carat round VSS1) refract light is pretty damn spectacular, no other rock or material can match it, so that may be a reason why some people want them.

Dismissing SRM technology, Prof Joeri Rogelj of Imperial College, London, called it “irresponsible, dangerous and a threat to the manageability” of our survival, saying: “It is not a solution but an extremely dangerous band-aid that covers up the global warming problem without healing it, creating a false and unwarranted sense of climate safety while the core of the problem continues to fester.”

While theoretically capable of cooling the planet, solar radiation management could have drastic side effects by shifting patterns of global atmospheric circulation that can lead to more extreme weather events. It also does nothing to reduce harms of excess greenhouse gases, including ocean acidification.

A state of affairs created and maintained by exactly the same people transacting in women…

How odd

A solo man couldn’t create a self-sustaining life either. Ultimately women got transacted around to solve this problem rather than men because men tend to be physically stronger than women, and that’s it. No matter how you dress it up.
Do you really think the "bling value" is what makes some diamonds cost in the tens of thousands of dollars?

The "bling value" does exist. But a diamond jewelry is mostly to signal status. If the signal is cheap, the value is worthless.

Just buy your wife an engagement ring and tell her it's a cheap, second hand, artificial diamond and watch the light die out of her eyes.
Obviously clearer is better, but do you think a scientific body should be expected to go out of its way to convey information in a way that would be difficult for bad-faith actors to willfully misinterpret? Because I don't.
Honestly, at this point I'm beyond caring much what stuff sounds like "to a skeptic". The past 15 or so years have proven to me that "skeptics" can believe whatever TF they want, all logic and and reason be damned, as long as there is a snazzy YouTube video pointing out how it's all a CoNSp1RacY by the Secret Global Elite.

I'm done with trying to convince people who have made it extremely adamant that they aren't willing to be convinced.
