RE: masks, paper masks don't do shit, gators even worse. That's what 90% of the population wore. Had we enough N-95s for everyone, I think the mask effectiveness would've increased dramatically, but I doubt folks would put up with wearing one. For me, I still wear N-95s on planes and in crowded places, I understand their effectiveness and it fits my risk/reward profile.

RE: schools, they have been and continue to be a reservoir for COVID and other nasties. Even this September, like clockwork, COVID is ticking back up in the waste treatment tests. I'm still waiting for society to have a conversation about what role schools should fill and how we ensure schools operate the way that people think they should. Additionally, schools should be able to turn away students who are sick--right now it's all honor based and kids with fevers have to be accommodated.
I just commented the same thing. I can't imagine most applications would want to leak time information in their identifiers but these undoubtedly will be used most placed out of convenience. In a year or so we'll read about an attack and everyone will migrate back to v4 or have to maintain a cryptographic identifier in addition to their temporal identifier.

Yes, that’s true if you rely on the “open” standard.

Luckily I don’t have to because I use an integrated solution where the hardware, software and OS are made by the same company.

We aren’t talking about “simultaneous” connections we are talking about switching between them.

> So there’s this place in Ukraine

Oh yeah let's talk about the soviet union again and do if it was a nuclear problem … By that metrics hydro power is absolutely terrible as well, given that we've had two major dam incidents (including one in… Ukraine) this years causing much more death than Tchornobyl ever did… Also should you count all nuclear incidents that resulted in reactor being damaged, you'd still be far lower than 10% of installed power being destroyed.

> Silicon is in sand…

Because open pit sand mining causes no issue somehow? Uranium is also in sand (at least in Kazakhstan, #1 producer) so what?

> Are you really weighing uranium vs solar panels? What kind of measure is that?

Measuring environmental impact of both energy production mean. Which is the opposite of the “solar good for the planet/ nuclear bad” irrational argument that you're having.

> How much does a nuclear plant weigh?

Much less than the equivalent solar farm, that's been my point from the beginning.

> What about the water pumped into a plant?

That water goes in and out, is that all you have as an argument left? Do you count the air going through wind turbines as a waste when evaluating wind power as well or the double standard only applies to nuclear for some reason?

> Do you need to weigh the people required to run a plant to get your kg/Mwh measure?

Ohoh, very clever >_<
> US v. AU population plays a large dactor here also.

I don't agree. If we are talking about the distribution of powers between state and local governments, the population of the country as a whole doesn't matter, just the population of each state.

Australia's most populous state, New South Wales (NSW), has a single state police force with a population of 8.1 million. If it were a US state, it would come 13th in population, between Virginia and Washington. So, 37 US states (74%) have a smaller population than New South Wales. At 800,000 km^2, NSW has a larger land area than every US state except for Alaska. If a single state police force can work in an Australian state with a population of 8 million, I see no reason why it couldn't work in a US state with both a smaller population and a smaller land area.

And, if a single state police force works for a state of 8 million, why assume 8 million is some kind of maximum? It might work just as well for a state of 12 million or 16 million or 24 million or 30 million. It might even work for California or Texas. Some countries with much larger populations than either have national-level police only.

But even if we say that California or Texas are "too big" for a single state police force – rather than their current systems of literally hundreds of independent local law enforcement agencies (county sheriffs and municipal police departments), why not divide each state into NSW-sized chunks (by population). Then California and Texas would each be divided into around 4 or 5 regions, each with its own democratically-elected regional governments, controlling the regional police force. Some would even argue that both California and Texas are too big, and each ought to be broken up into 3-5 smaller states.

> The US also carries a burden of weight of years, AU Government is just over 120 years since 1900 Foundation and still relatively nimble, the US has ossified and become somewhat deified in the eyes of some since its creation.

The US national constitution says nothing about the division of power between state and local governments. In fact, if a US state decided to abolish all local governments and replace them by direct rule by the state government, I've never heard anyone argue that would violate the national constitution. The US constitution (just like Australia's) is completely silent on the issue of local government.

So, however ossified the US national constitution may be (actually it has been amended more frequently than Australia's!), isn't really relevant to the discussion here. And many US state constitutions are far less ossified than the US national constitution; Alabama rewrote their state constitution in 2022 (their previous state constitution dated from 1901, and during its life was amended 977 (!) times); previously, Rhode Island did the same thing in 1986, Georgia in 1983, Louisiana in 1975, Montana in 1973, Illinois, North Carolina and Virginia in 1971, etc. Since statehood, Louisiana has had 11 different constitutions, Georgia 9, Alabama and Virginia 7, etc. Of the original 13 colonies, the only one which still has its original 17th century constitution in force is Massachusetts.

How does carbon dating work on a statue?

Wouldn't it be dating the underlying material (i.e. the stone), which presumably predates the actual carving of the statue out of that material?

Edit: I guess if it was buried, they date the organic material around it.
I use Glasswire (Android) and block apps from accesing the internet, when not using them (e.g. Uber).

It's a bit of pain to turn it on before use, and off again afterwards, but I've realized it's much less stressful than having notifications popping up at all times.

YMMV
Only if I was confident there were only two other ways, I'd say a few (or, bearing the weirdness of English in mind, probably "many").
I assume the idea would be to avoid the carbon emission from doing so?
I would buy one once they're in stock instead of a Kickstarter pledge. Another thing is their goal is too low (HK $50k) compared with the product's cost (~ HK $11k), why bother with Kickstarter project?
> My understanding is that complex things like statues were not supposed to be possible 12,000 years ago.

Huh? The Venus of Willendorf[1] is twice as old, and to my eye displays a higher degree of artistry than the statue shown in the article. Several such Venus figurines have been found in central Europe.

Compared to the intricacy of the Venus' limestone carving, the statue from the article looks downright crude. The idea that it's "not supposed to be possible" to make something like that 12,000 years BP is ridiculous, and I can't imagine where you might have got that impression. Yes, the new statue is life-size, while the Venus is a figurine, but that doesn't necessarily make it any more difficult to manufacture (possibly easier, in fact).

>Looking things up in a multiplication table is harder because it is two-dimensional.

But T2 is pretty large, why not just make T2 have 100 elements and index it by a*10+b (i.e., just concatenate the digits together)? This is faster because you don't have to add or lookup anything in T1.

If the numbers are represented by the length of rods then this concatenation is not so easy, but neither is it in this algorithm:

> you have some thingy that slides up by T1(a) units, and then by T1(b) more, and then wherever it ends up is used to index into T2 to get the answer

So I would replace this with:

you have some thingy that slides up by a large units and then by b small units (where one large unit is 10 times longer than one small unit), and then wherever it ends up is used to index into to get the answer

that's only if you're viewing "people" as a whole. If you instead view each commentor as an individual, it only makes sense that you would promote what improves the health of your service and punish those who stir up strife.

This website is not a serious place. Intelligent people are not attracted to a platform calling itself "Hacker News" - roleplayers and onlookers get sucked in instead. Venture capitalists and entrepreneurs get tricked into thinking that this is problem-solving. DogTV™ gets funded and busts out, destitute shareholders and makers go looking for the next big thing. The cycle continues.

With some people, I have no idea where they fall on the spectrum of self-serious argumentation. I usually don't even care; pretty much all feedback is valuable on a forum like this. When people preclude good-faith discussion around Apple hardware with weaksauce rhetoric though, it's pretty obvious that they're putting their emotions first. I'll field any discussion around Apple and their altruism, but I won't accept petty greed or speculation as a defense. They're an opaque company that deserves the scrutiny they recieve, regardless of the unofficial rationale people roll out.

This problem isn't specific to Apple hardware, or really the tech industry as a whole. Every field has it's pundits; you can usually identify them when they use weak rhetoric and avoid directly addressing your argument. It's still especially bad with Apple technology though, since so little of it is documented well enough to definitively refute any claim. You can't corroborate behavior on your iPhone with source code, or visit the iCloud datacenters to ensure everything is being handled with white gloves. People who know the platform well usually know that there is no definitive answer, and inflammatory riff-raff discussions float to the top.

The whole concept of aligning LLMs to human morals seems naive.

Think by analogy: could you align a motor by making it impossible use in vehicle that is being used to commit a crime? No. The concept barely makes sense.

It's part of the naivety that OpenAI and others are trying to foist that LLMs are intelligent in a deeply human sense. They're not - they're extremely useful, powerful text completion engines. Aligning them makes no more sense than aligning a shovel.

People suck. Unfortunately for the authentic types, nobody wants a product that sucks.
The points often lost here is that (1) this advice is aimed at startups, and (2) the whole concept of "innovation tokens." Any successful business is going to solve some problem which is probably not so obvious and that takes innovative thinking. If you're spending too much time trying to be innovative with your tech stack then you're NOT innovating on your specific difference as a business, and that hold you back (or could bankrupt you).

All of that said, today's tech landscape is far less edgy than the early days of cloud, NoSQL, and NodeJS. I'm not even sure what tech is out there that would qualify as "spending your innovation tokens" other than AI.

> How does carbon dating work on a statue?

It doesn't, and the stone itself is typically hundreds of millions or even billions of years old.

However, many ancient artifacts are found buried in the ground, and it is often possible to carbon-date organic material in the soil surrounding the artifact, which produces an estimate for when it was buried. This is typically combined with historians' estimates for when the culture that presumably produced the artifact flourished, though uncertainties of several millennia remain in some cases.

HN routinely seems unaware that this is a totally solved problem in the tax law of virtually every industrialized country.

In the US, for example, the phrase is "Common Control": https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/26/1.414(c)-2

All sorts of modern tax schemes would have truck-sized loopholes without a rigorous definition of Common Control. It's already in the tax code of every industrialized country (possibly under a different name). All you have to do is reference it. The necessary definitions have been in the tax codes since the 1980s.

I'm kind of annoyed at how often this "but but but two companies with overlapping owners yadda yadda" comes up. Go ahead try that on the IRS and see how it works out for you.

Even bigger, fatter wheels might help, like car tires or some e-bikes.

But honestly if we are blue sky dreaming for a second - I wonder if there will come a time when a two wheel kick scooter can self-balance, such as by using more wheels in a different configuration or by using some other kind of board or motor technology to stay balanced more of the time. If a scooter also had the ability to predict if it was going to crash into a curb or pothole or if there were more safety features, even maybe better jackets and jeans that have padding in all the right places to support falls, I’d think we’re moving in the right direction. The gotcha is that we’ve had time to understand what bikes and cars need for safety but we haven’t had as much time to understand what makes for a safer scooter ride yet. Likewise e-bikes too, if you ask me. And jury’s still out as to whether or not bikes or cars have “solved” their safety issues completely.

I should say that scooters are definitely still improving. A new latch design is slightly better than the old one, suspension can help maintain balance in some situations but not others, and some scooters have anti-skid technology so the front and back wheels always rotate at the same speeds at the cost of a loss of power going up hills sometimes.
