I tried using Apple Weather for months—I really wanted to like it. There's just too many different charts going different directions and it adds a bunch of cognitive overhead to understand the weather.

* Current conditions take up almost half the screen—That's fine when rain is forecasted, but otherwise I don't need the biggest thing to be a number and the current conditions.

* Then the next thing down are hourly temperatures and conditions. Those are tiny and scroll horizontally.

* Then there is the 10-day barbell, which is displayed vertically. When I select an individual day, I get a pair of area charts in an action sheet showing temp and precipitation.

Dark Sky devoted the most space to the next hour. Below that had a barbell-like chart showing hourly temperatures and conditions. Then they had the 10-day barbell, but you could expand those 10-day barbells and get and hourly view within it.

That probably sounds super-picky—and maybe it is. I'm a designer. But I've moved to Carrot Weather's Dark Sky theme and have been happy with it.
This is a valid point, and the people I talked to tended to be younger. I assume older people don't lock their devices? Or maybe its a regional thing? In Germany I (anecdotal) have met maybe a handful of people under 40 who didn't lock their phone and one under 30 of a 100+ people.

I can't believe that I continue reading this on HN. Unless something is a commodity prices are not determined by costs! That really is economics 101.

The funny thing is that this is being brought up again and again as an argument against regulation. You'd think the smart business people would know some economics, so they are either lying or not that smart.
So you imply refurbishing a car battery pack will be unreasonably expensive? Why?

And real world data does not suggest that will be needed at all. Sure there are outliers like someone damaging battery by doing only supercharging but that's exception like not changing oil in ICE.
Clearly I am not an option trader, but so long as you own the option you are selling (covered) doesn’t that make your maximum loss the stock itself (+potential profit from the positive movement). I thought ruin can only happen if you are selling naked?

Europe and the US are most definitely not counter-examples. Power generation is almost everywhere done commercially. Transmission is more often publicly owned, but even that is not universal.

I respect your disagreement, and in some cases perhaps yes - letting the barking dogs bark and ignoring them might be the best policy.

But I feel that in the given the context, both external and internal in India, Indian government had to react rather than let silence be assumed to be an admission of guilt. That would have been worse since it frees people to draw their own conclusions.

If you don’t have a high regard for the Harvard CS curriculum, it’s reasonable enough to disqualify people on that basis.

That said, I think you’re completely out of touch with how 18 year olds choose universities. It can be as simple as a friend of theirs is also attending, or the school is close to a parent’s home, or they were actually in a liberal arts program before they switched into CS.

Sometimes as you implied, it’s their parents making that decision for them.

US was one such country. Canada sent its soldiers into Afghanistan and Iraq in the past while innocent civilians were being killed in the open.

If India did have a hand in Nijjar’s killing, it perhaps did it to either send a message to Khalistani’s that it’s not to be messed with. Canada is tolerant of intolerance. Again, it can keep its snakes in its backyard.

I've seen somewhere that computer programs are the most complex objects that humanity has created. Nothing we did before computers can compare. Clockwork, cathedrals, electronic circuits, math proofs, novels, etc.. None of these have as many interlocking "moving parts", as medium-sized software projects.

And in fact, programming is all about managing complexity. Really, it is all there is to it. The operations that computers do are simple, anyone who can operate a light switch can understand them in minutes. But how to piece millions of these to do something useful takes a lifetime, and it involves layers of tooling, custom or written by others, among them things like compilers and text editors, libraries, OSes, etc...
> Thankfully for airlines, it seems flying is a lot more indispensable than riding by rail.

I think a big aspect of this is that railway workers were much more unionized than airline ones. So what better way to kill the unions than to kill the industry.
One issue I usually see with these services is related to not being able to send out email campaigns with "dynamic content" pulled from the client's DB or APIs (based on specific user/list segmentations)

Had cases where the exact same campaign or template had to be created multiple times due to the client wanting a slightly different intro/closing or even entirely different products and services promoted based on user/account preferences.

Sure, it could be managed with multiple campaigns/templates/lists but these duplications could easily be avoided by using slightly more advanced "segmentation logic".

This is usually the case where tracking/stats aren't that important but rather making sure the user receives relevant content.

The whole idea behind food stamps, in the first place, is that poor people are irresponsible ragamuffins who cannot be trusted with actual money. Stamps are a form of money with embarrassing use restrictions attached.

If you accept that it's okay to give people this kind benefit, then you have to accept the debatability of the question of whether food delivery is in scope of that benefit or not.

I'm on the side of giving people a benefit without the condescending dictation of how it may be used, like whether for food delivery or not. Therefore, logically, I must be in favor of giving them actual money.

If they buy cigarettes instead of baby formula, that's their decision.

> But the investors don't want to bet on the value of physical planes, nor do they want to bet on the price of oil. If they wanted to place those bets, they'd just invest in Boeing or Exxon.

You're putting the cart before the horse since that's a choice by the exec. If they wanted to derisk themselves they could as well hedge by buying puts on Boeing or calls on Exxon.

Overall, who decides what a good business is? Unfortunately, that's come down to a gang of Wall Street suits who would much rather punish good businesses for not catering to their attention span deficient trading/gambling habits. We would much rather have some jack of all trades making business decisions based on their next year's bonus/chalet/yacht rather than people who depend on those businesses (customers and employees), so of course we get to this state.

The a priori that regulation reduces cost is a good one, but neither of you are compelling because the question has to include a time horizon with respect to resource consumption and other factors otherwise regulation reduces cost would be true only so much as a meaningless technicality.

Similar to what you said I find it’s disappointing when individuals get caught up in believing that regulation or “more government” must be good while they ignore the externalities that the government brings to bear - I’m still trying to figure out why the government is regulating my EV like it’s a super duty F-250, and why the government made it illegal in my state to bring my own bottle of wine to a restaurant.

I’m also trying to figure out why the government is leasing my land in Alaska (I’m an American, therefore it’s mine as well - yes I’m aware of recent Biden admin actions +) for oil and gas companies but won’t approve new nuclear reactors.

It’s also crazy to me that the government doesn’t regulate by making mandatory seatbelts a requirement for school busses, and why it fails to regulate (ban) additive sugars and vaping and all sorts of other harmful products.

I’m not trying to both-sides it here, but the central theme is everyone has an opinion on this stuff and the truth is regulation is good and bad, and it can cost or save money. We shouldn’t get into X is good, Y is bad. It lacks nuance.

> You're literally saying 'we should inflict more pain on the relatively poor'.

The poorest already don't own or use cars. Getting cars off the road will make buses faster and more reliable, and the poorest will benefit the most from that.

We need fewer cars on the road, so any way you slice it some people have to be pushed out of driving, and any way you slice it the rich will find a way to pay to continue to drive. Either we let them pay directly, and spend that money in public-directed ways that improve transit and help the poor, or we adopt some other system and they'll find more wasteful ways to use money to "solve the problem" that just mean everyone loses out. (e.g. some cities have a rule that each car is only allowed into the city a few days a week depending on its numberplate - so the result is that rich people buy two cars).

> Meanwhile, the people in charge of solving the problem of climate change are still flying around the world on private jets.

And they'll continue to do that until we adopt a carbon tax system so dumb that there's no way around it. But if you try to just "ban private jets" then they'll buy private prop planes, or private trains, or fly around in private full-size airliners...

I'm still new to Elixir, and see Erlang from over here in Elixir land. Recently on Twitter there were debates on static vs. dynamic typing, and the static typists said that it made software more reliable. Which made me think about all the literature I see about dynamically-typed Erlang has been making the most reliable software around for 30 years. I don't know how large Ericsson's telephone switching software is but I think it's more that 50,000 lines.
I haven’t read the paper, but I wonder how well they control for economic status. I’d expect the better off a family is the less lead they have in their life - and I’d expect economic status to actually be a cause of better education, health, incarceration, etc.
> People drink hot water all the time not to mention cooking, tea, instant coffee and more.

I always use cold water and then boil it in a kettle. Even in Europe with our copper pipes the heat will dissolve more crap apparently. It's always advised to do this.

> That's from water being stagnant for long periods of time.

Yeah stagnant under optimal bacterial growth temperatures like 30C. And it enters the body through the lungs, from vapors in the shower. Not drinking it doesn't prevent legionnaire disease.

In fact what does prevent it is heating the water significantly, like around 60C. And chlorinating. It's also why the water here in Spain it's almost undrinkable from all the chlorine here in summer. They just have to put that much in it to prevent outdoor pipes growing bacteria. Yet in summer the water is still hot and brown when I open the tap after it's been outside in the pipe all day. I drink a lot of bottled water, lol.

> Not only is this not true, but water is never going to go above boiling. Propane torches (used for soldering pipes) burns at 1,980C

Yeah lead solder actually melts at a much lower temperature. I still use it for that reason because lead free is a bitch to work with. I only solder micro electronics though.
This is an interesting challenge.

Part of the difficulty in doing this at early stage (without VC) is that your costs often don't scale in proportion to customer ability to pay.

A big chunk of the costs of running Kagi will come from external search indexes - their founder is active here and was pretty open about the impacts on costs when Bing raised their API pricing significantly. That's just one player in the market, but when Bing raises their prices, they don't offer discounts to make it cheaper for developing countries for users downstream.

With investment or a significant customer base in full-price countries, it's easier to subsidize a lower price model for developing markets. Trouble is, businesses like Kagi aren't in the business of getting eyeballs today for future monetization (which works fine as justification to grow user stats if someone else is footing the server bills, and is willing to buy future growth).

It's certainly an imperfect setup, but regional pricing seems an interesting challenge to make work without relying on external investment.

There is what I would call an ideal, yes, but what you personally should do is subject to your particular constraints, what you can afford to do, and so on. As you hint, the poor do no have the luxury of choosing between various options that may be available to those better off. But if you do have the option, as you claim to have, then there is an objectively better choice.

During the early years of a child's life, the mother's constant presence is more important than the father's. This is not to downplay the paternal role, only to highlight that the maternal role has an especially important role to play during a child's early years, biologically, emotionally, and so on. If you can afford to do it, I would say that it would be best for your wife to leave her job and devote her time toward her children. She can return after they've all reached a certain age, though we should stop being so monomaniacally career focused, especially in the US. Children are entitled to such care, and so there is an obligation to give it to them, provided you can give it to them.

As children get older, the paternal role becomes more important. Again, this is not to suggest that fathers don't matter in the early years, or that mothers don't matter later on. They absolutely do. But the needs of a child in those early years depends more immediately and constantly on the mother. As children get older, the father becomes increasingly important as a figure of authority and maturation. If you observe children, you will see that how they relate to men and women differs. Children can intuitively grasp sex differences readily. Fathers play a greater role in teaching discipline and ushering children into the public sphere and the like.

I wish you the best. Too often children are given secondary importance, but we fail to realize that being a mother or father in some capacity (even if adoptive, or in some spiritual sense, as we see among, e.g., Catholic religious, if the biological option is closed to you by choice or by condition) is the height of human existence and purpose. Nothing else really makes sense unless that is recognized. A person never reaches adulthood until her becomes a parent, in some sense. He or she are perpetually trapped in childhood. Self-indulgence is much more common.
Memory caching will accelerate all requests through the memory controller. The extra 64MB of L3 in my 5800X3D wouldn't accelerate DMA between my memory and my GPU, this HBM cache should accelerate PCI-e devices like GPUs and Storage.

It's a benefit in 2 socket configurations when the memory the CPU needs is connected to another socket. The data will be cached on the other socket's HBM for the entire system without filling up that other socket's L1-L3 cache for data it hasn't requested yet.

Another way to see it is the last time Intel messed around with L4 cache under the EDRAM section.

No support for collation is an enormous dealbreaker. It means you can't have case-insensitive searches or keys (e.g. foo@bar.com is treated differently than Foo@bar.com). You also can't rename databases.

The query syntax is also a massive pain IMHO. Especially when you get into nesting expressions. E.g. I can never remember if it's `{$id: $regex{'/pattern/'}}` or `{$id: ${regex: '/pattern/'}}` or `{$id: $regex{ pattern: '/pattern/' }}` or something totally different.

SQL is still superior.
