X/Twitter might need subscription for posting content, replies, likes, reposts
Social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, said on Tuesday it will test a $1 annual fee under a new subscription model for posting content, replies, likes, reposts or quoting other accounts' posts, and bookmarking posts.

The purpose of introducing "Not A Bot", the new subscription model, is to combat bots and spammers.

Cool! Thanks for following up. I wonder if there is a room for LibGDX going forward now that Godot is getting big. I expect to see some consolidation among open source engines, with Godot becoming the big all-purpose engine and things like Love and Ren'py for more niche use cases.
I use vscode for Golang backend dev work. I even have a subscription to Idea, but it just never took to me. I put in the work to customize Idea to basically be like Goland, and I still just kind of prefer vscode. Also use vscode for more generic things like CI scripts, Ansible, etc.
> which made about as much sense to me as the idea of going into business as a dinner-party guest

I thought escorts were generally considered to have a fairly solid business model.
To you and everyone else saying "you can't reproduce the business in a weekend" or that I'm overlooking that side of things, I specifically said "like a rails apps you could build in a weekend" because I was talking about... THE APP. I never did and never would claim that the user base, traction, brand recognition, or label deals could be replaced in a weekend. I was only speaking about the simplistic and minimal set of features for the bandcamp.com product. My words made it pretty clear what I was talking about so it feels like people choosing to view it as me saying the business side is more complex are just looking for an argument or to "tell me how it is". The logic here makes no sense. I DID NOT mention the business yet you people are giving me shit saying the business can't be replicated in a weekend. Where the F did I say that it could?! I SPECIFICALLY talked about an APP, and you're ignoring that key word and fighting me over something I never claimed.
I’ve mentioned this before on HN but I personally dealt with this guy when I was in NOC at a smaller cloud / dedicated hosting provider. He wanted us to announce range for him and everything appeared to check out until we got a complaint and we promptly withdrew the announcement while we got to the bottom. This guy wasn’t very pleasant to deal with and he kept coming back trying to get us to announce different IP ranges. He eventually went away as we just kept pushing back.
I'm going to take a break from bashing Toyota to suggest that this might just be a special use car or for particular circumstances that are not related to EVs. (The EV slant seems to be mostly from the deranged writer on the website.)

The engine was shown by a Chinese partner of Toyota's (which is why the comments about Japan's geopolitical relations with China are extra ridiculous). It isn't going to kill EVs; China is all-in on EVs.

Instead of the conspiratorial, let me go to something more realistic. Toyota is a Japanese company and not everyone's skills are going to transition to electric vehicles. For those left behind, funding research projects seems to be a sensible way to reward their efforts from the past.
I wasn't comparing to Tesla per se but to the market in general and the fact that Toyota has some BEVs out but not in quantity (~2% of their sales) compared to other operators (for instance, VW: 7%) that sell both ICE and BEVs. Tesla and VW BEVs are a dime a dozen around here, I've seen a handful of Toyota's (mostly delivery vans).

They also seem to have been stuck for a long time on the 'hydrogen is the future' bandwagon.

Smoking reduces risk of death?

> Not highlighted in the CDC study and unlikely to be recommended, smoking caused the most significant reduction in mortality from all causes (HR 1.65) in both the mild and moderate to severe depression groups compared to the base model (HR 1.78). This was followed closely by physical activity (HR 1.67), which is much more likely to be encouraged.
Elon Musk has something to say about that. He is building Tesla bot to replace all human labor...
And why would that be so? The neutron radiation results in short term radioactivity, not in transuranic isotopes. Separately, there are no neutron-free fusion cycles. All the so-called neutron free fusion proposals require huge temperatures, and at those temperatures there are always secondary fusion events that produce neutrons.

I'm about as interested in the creation. Did people just go down and install them? Was this an "ask forgiveness, not permission" scenario? If not, how did they get the permission of everyone above? Or how deep do land rights even go?

I ask this partially too because most of the highways in my state were originally privately funded and built, and only later funded by government fees.

I just wonder what happened to the "let's just go do it" mentality of rallying people to cooperate and getting things done. Almost seems like it would be hard to do worse than the current bureaucratic nightmares.
They still use those here. My local bank had candies, like tootsie rolls, that they'd send with withdrawals if parents let them know they had kids in the car. It was always such a treat to watch the cool pneumatic tube and then get a sugary treat to top it all off.

This post really reminds me of my relationship with hackernews, I was elated for a period having found a source of constant interesting bits from the net, then for a brief period I got quite shell shocked; for every second article seemingly talking about one interesting thing always turned into "then I found my calling and started xyz.com and it'd make world a better place". Luckily I got quite good at noticing the tone and have since avoided bunch of them, but still.
Every time this comment is posted about non usa geographic area, somebody will post, but in US you have deductions, allowance, dividend, smaller profits, gifts. Which for sure all other countries too have, and somehow they have sorted this out. I think its the lobbying and the general mistrust of government "telling" a number vs calculating the number yourself. (Although if that is a wrong number, government/IRS tells the correct number).
Yeah, you were wrong elsewhere in the thread also. By treating the person who wrote it like shit, he insulted the person who wrote it. Words like "pointless" and "obvious" and "christ" and "illogical" and "worthless" are not emotionally uncharged words. Using those words is about communicating how he thinks the person, not the code, is a moron who needs to feel bad about their work.
That's fair, the article seems to be low quality, but other news sources back this up to a large degree, what with Toyota being a 50% stakeholder in the engine project here that seems to be a pretty big move if it was done without their permission and cooperation, which they indicate they have engaged in.

Note that new engine projects, especially if they include non-standard fuels aren't exactly cheap.
These are Phase II trials.
Nah he was doing the forging way before that as I had left my previous role in NOC back in 2017. I dealt with this guy probably around 2015-2016 and after we got a complaint about announcement we suspected forgery as the rightful owner shared more than this guy could except for some docs which apparently the other party never signed but magically there was a signature.
Protocol Ossification
You need to simplify your value prop. What is the core problem that you're solving around a single user scenario. Get me hooked on that and then help me expand the value as I start using and understanding your product.

Right no it's too much to digest, it feels heavy and like I need to learn a whole new way of working. It is not clear to me what problem or massive pain point you are solving for me. Remember, you are asking me to spend time trying, learning and using a new tool, sell me on why I can't go on another day without doing that.

You've built a ton of value, more is not always better. Simplify and make it stupidly easy to understand.

Congrats and good luck.
Is it just me or is this article fairly scattered and confusing?

First off I’ve never heard of these supposed “glass holes” before so either their hype failed or the title has mismatched expectations with the zeitgeist (“have arrived”). They proceed to show several tweets of people using them but don’t provide a polished critique of their own (at least not up front). It also felt like a more accurate description about what makes these different from Oculus headsets would have been nice.

I’ll admit to not having finished the article. It was just really poorly written in my opinion. Maybe someone else can point out what it is that makes it so seemingly unpolished and tabloid-like? I’m having trouble with it.
Note that this ammonia development is in a 50/50 JV between Toyota and the Chinese.
Jetbrains' approach to IDE's tends to be language-specific. So, taking IDEA (for Java) and making it work for Golang is probably not as slick as it should be.

GoLand[1] is part of the Jetbrains suite, and should be used for Golang development.

This makes absolutely no sense.

I have set up anonymous websites before, long ago, over a trivial bit of local politics that might almost be described as minutae. I have no idea how difficult it would be now.

The reasons for blogging are varied. Part of me would like to post the odd bit of how-to on an obscure technical topic, that kind of thing. And then there's writing reviews. No expectation is had of reward, but that does not preclude the kind of risk I run if some gibbering nutjob decides I am a fascist or someone else dehumanizable because the Devil's Advocate in me might want to point out that this person was not given a fair shake in this instance, or that something else is a bigger deal than we are making it, and so on.

Of course, I would like to know that there is someone who is catching my signal besides Grim Entropy and the Inverse Square Falloffs, but then you're back to moderating comments which are largely linkback blogspam.
Their website is pretty crap. But. You haven't seen anything until you use their mobile app.

> Nature has a more limited tool kit and has limited ability to bring together virus genes that would otherwise not occur in the same nucleus.

Would that that were true. I'm curious how you explain how your perception aligns with the reality that no lab, anywhere, at anytime since the outbreak, has been able to produce COVID-19 variants as fast as occurred naturally.

Nature is experimenting all the time, with the overwhelming majority of viruses out there, with absolutely no interest in controls, mitigations or protections for the human population... and nature is far trickier to observe. We've gotten pretty good at reducing the risk from nature, but make no mistake, even with all the GoF research we could possibly hope for, it far outpaces our capacity to experiment. The only advantage GoF labs have is that they can direct their research in specific areas where there is greatest risk. That's the whole challenge.
No actually, it's a myth rooted in the racist belief that Chinese people care about their children less than other people, and therefore are willing to kill or abandon their children on a large scale rather than pay a fine, to a greater degree than other people - you actually indicate you believe the broader version of this racist myth with your "Han ethnicity" comment, indicating you believe that there is some relation between the Han ethnicity specifically and female infanticide. There's a reason the Wikipedia entry for it is full of [citation needed] on every claim that actually amounts to female infanticide, because there is no solid evidentiary basis for the claim. It's not backed up by demographic data, it doesn't account for the impacts of sex-selective abortion, it completely ignores the role of "white lie" corruption where Party officials would not count female children for the purposes of the One Child policy in the small rural villages where this behaviour supposedly occurred en masse, and it supposes a frankly absurd level of inhumanity by parents. The One Child policy was a stupid, bad policy instituted by a corrupt government, but the idea that the response of the Chinese population to this policy was mass female infanticide rather than sex selective abortion, minor corruption on the part of village officials in ignoring violations, or paying a fine is just racism without evidence.

Not to mention the metaphorical gun of just getting investigated. We send innocent people to prison all the time. Just because you did nothing wrong in no way implies you won't go to prison if a DA thinks he get get a conviction.
Sure, but I'm asking if that's something that's enabled by default today or not. I don't see why it's unreasonable for things that were useful "back in the day" to not be available with the default arguments on current versions of compilers but available with certain flags. I'm not sure why my question touched a nerve, because I'm genuinely asking both if I understand correctly and if it's something that needs a flag to enable.

Ammonia will cause serious lung damage if concentrated. Small leaks won't go undetected, large ones will be catastrophes. Think: parking garage leak.

0.5% and you're looking at respiratory arrest and 1% and up and you will have skin damage (think burn wound but chemically induced rather than fire).

That won't be a real problem because you're likely going to be dead anyway...
I edited it into my original comment, but you can install a bunch of the same extensions that are used in Goland in Idea. I was under the impression that the difference is primarily in the default extensions.

Experiment Interpretation and Extrapolation
The webpage discusses a Bayesian approach to experimentation, focusing on interpreting and extrapolating experimental results, mainly in a tech environment aiming to maximize user retention. It addresses challenges like the inference problem, the extrapolation problem, the explore-exploit problem, and a culture problem within tech companies around misuse of experiments. The author suggests providing decision-makers with benchmark statistics to help them estimate true effects of different policies, and discusses a model of experimentation dealing with observed and true effects along with the noise in experiments 1 .

I wonder if smoking serves as a proxy for social interaction. I remember seeing someone else comment on another story about not liking smoking but liking smoking culture. And along those lines, maybe the following quote from the linked open access paper re: marital status might also suggest having a community of support might be helpful? Seems plausible to me, anyway.

Reread my comment, I’m questioning the policy. This policy isn’t the same as switching to EVs, in fact it may cause no switching!

Let’s assume it causes 1% of people to switch and decreases the local efficiency of ICE vehicles by ~1%. This would be a net increase of ~0.5% emissions! And we don’t know if it’s 1/1 or if it’s 0/5. My point is we cannot tell if this policy works without those numbers. 40% fossil fuel based power has a large effect on this number, so also needs to be taken into account.

Usually it is extensions - but also keymapping, default utilities, some layout, etc. Basically they structure each specific IDE for what people working in that language would want/need the most.

So, you're kind of going against the grain by trying to make IDEA a general do-all IDE.

This is different than say, Eclipse, where everything and the kitchen sink are under one IDE. This took me a bit of getting used to, but now I kind of like that separation without fear of breaking/worsening one of my "flows" for another lang.
