Half the story is the lead acts as a octane booster, but raising the octane without lead chemicals is trivial. MTBE works, so does just selling pure toluene. The issue is that in addition to raising the octane, some metal lead deposits around the valves which maybe makes them seal better and switching away from lead could cause engine failures unrelated to octane.

My Kobo has a little progress bar across the bottom if I tap the screen. That scratches the itch for me.
Higher octane allows it to get compressed more before it goes boom, which means you can make a more powerful engine.

But adding high-octane gas to a normal engine doesn't make it go any more boom, in fact, it goes less boom because it doesn't burn as much when it booms.

Modern engines can be designed to advance or retard timing based on knock, so they can run on different octanes and provide different power curves.

Some thoughts:

Honestly, the long form tweets became a signal to just ignore that tweet. I unfollow or block users that tweet long form often.

> The people in my feed—most of whom I’m not following, by the way—

Yea, just use the chrono-tab ("following"). Only usable version of Twitter.

> love posting for engagement. Some of them love it so much that they offer courses teaching other people how to do it—which amplifies this godforsaken death spiral even further.

This is so bizarre to watch.

I think Twitter is usable only if you stick to the chronological tab which has only your follows and putting non-trivial effort to clean your follows periodically. Unfollow and block people aggressively. Outrage-focused account? Blocked. Grift? Unfollow/block. Random-ass comment pushing some political angle? Block. I block even people that don't share follows if I got to see a tweet I just don't like.

With Next.js emerging and 300+ MB projects becoming a standard, I want to bring up an alternative approacth. Nue is a "closer-to-standards web framework" with focus is on minimalism, separation of concerns, and semantic web design. That is: the NPM is in 3MB ballpark. Layout, styling, and logic are separated instead of everything being controlled by JavaScript. There are as little abstractions as possible. It's a work in progress, but definitely a reality early next year.

Breaking the law is often considered immoral, depending on the person.

Any human-made rule is artificial, any form of order in a society is artificial. Copyright laws are just on a very high level, compared to other rules.

> copyright law is not a reflection of natural, fundamental morality regarding the sharing of ideas and creative works.

There is nothing natural in creativity. It's all in your mind. There is also nothing natural about ownership, it's just rules that any higher society at some point considers as necessary.

> In conclusion, when I personally say "copying is not theft", I'm simply saying, let's not conflate the issues, so we can have a more nuanced discussion.

There is no nuanced discussion about this. Theft and stealing are legal terms. If you break the laws, they apply. If they not apply, you have not broken the law. The nuanced discussion is only about the laws themselves, whether they should exist and in which form and details. But this discussion is usually about whether people are willing to accept the foundation of society itself or not. In which case you could debate "nuanced" about any law.

Scammers, as a category, target everyone. You think Indians don't get conned into sharing their OTP/passwords or financial details?

> They are too short-sighted to not see that the "industry" is damaging India's global reputation

India has one of the lowest police officers to population ratios in the world. They are so swamped with day-to-day crimes and other nonsense and providing protection to events and politicians that India's "global reputation" is simply not on their radar.

You cannot buy a SIM for your phone or open a bank account without providing ten types of identity documents but these scammers seem to have an infinite supply of phone numbers and bank accounts. That is just the way things are.
> older planes will slowly replace their engines at the next engine rebuild

An alternative exists, but the FAA needs to certify it for each aircraft type. The majority of aircraft types are not certified for this. No A&P is going to do this because the plane won't be legal to fly in most cases.

And at the risk of editorializing, I've never seen the FAA do anything with the goal to making GA more accessible, at least not intentionally.

But... are we actually 15% below in total, or just per capita? I've heard/read both from various places (all of which escape me now). We might still be emitting more in total, but because of population increase, we're considered 'down' from 2005.

I hope it's 15% down overall.

Yeah, I don't like the binary threshold at all. 3.8 is green, while 4.3 is red? That hardly makes a difference to your health.

Meanwhile, both 0.2 and 3.8 are green, while 4.3 and 19.2 are red? It doesn't distinguish at all that one is 4x or 20x worse or better than another.

A color interpolation would be far more informative for health.

In my early experience of social media, people were criticized for not writing correct English. That is almost gone. Infact, now people realize that people belonging to different backgrounds can't be expected to perform in one particular context. There is reverse sort of meme, where non-natives are celebrated for writing perfect English. Similarly, there was debate on how to actually spell Quran or Koran etc. Now people understand the intention behind the words rather than actual grammer or spelling. It takes time for higher level of ideas to percolate social media.
Maybe Im dense, but I miss the point of what you trying to say.

Everything seems to indicate that strikebreakers are legal in Sweden.

>So even if strikebreaking isn't illegal in either country, the legal framework which protects strikebreaking is stronger in the US, and the legally allowed consequences of strikebreaking are weaker. These is part of the legal framework which a US employer should learn and understand when expanding to Europe.

It seems that you are still assuming that Tesla doesn't know the law, and will suffer legal consequences. What are the "legally allowed consequences" of strikebreaking in Sweden?

Ozempic was also shown to modify BMR even after controlling for the change in body mass. It is doing something else in addition to aversion therapy. Probably several somethings else, not all of which we understand or would want.

But again the calorie counting is an oversimplication as mentioned in other posts. Elegantly simple, and so attractive. Caloric restriction will always work in the absence of the endocrine issues you mention. And in the absence of other issues we haven't discovered or don't understand yet. The vast majority of hypothyroidism is due to autoimmune related inflammation (Hashimoto's). The normal cause for that is childbirth related immune response. But plenty of other autoimmune diseases are virally triggered, quite possibly even diabetes. Combining that with the way gut biome impacts appetite and processing efficiency, we can't just pretend telling people to eat less and better and exercise will matter no matter how hard we work on education. Ozempic is a bandaid that rich people will use and will slow down discovery of all the multitudes of ways modern life has conspired to cause obesity.

So we have a vessel capable of ferrying 100 tons to Mars that's already had 55 seconds of controlled flight from a launch where it was missing 3 engines, developed by a single non-government company. And this is supposed to make me pessimistic about a concerted effort from the United States government being able to make this thing (or something like it) work in the next ten years?

> But we aren't talking about LEO deployment here. We are talking about a flight to Mars.

I was using the payload-to-Mars number, about 100 tons. That does require refueling in orbit. That's expensive, but a pretty simple orbital rendezvous, which we've been doing since 1965.

> And we won't be deploying that paylod in space, we have to land it

Parachutes, aerobraking, skycranes ... these are well-solved problems on Mars. You think we've already hit the limit of mass that's possible to land on Mars?

> Then please show me the robotic infrastructure that is capable, with no pre-existing support structures, of building a sealed habitat, after self-unloading from a landed spaceship

Let's revisit the original point being made:

> Pretty sure we could design and launch a digging robot in 10 years, I dont really buy that as the bottleneck to mars exploration

An extra ~14 tons (half of which we need anyway) and a couple of months of digging is pretty clearly not the bottleneck.

But to actually address your point: the robots don't need to make it move-in-ready, they just need to set up enough that the arriving humans can do it relatively quickly (days). If humans have to IKEA-assemble things and weld* some stuff, that's fine. (*yes, harder on Mars, but possible). Since the spaceship itself will have to be a livable habitat, obviously the hope would be to re-use most of that. We send pre-emptive missions to set things up (dig holes, set up solar panels, gather basic resources), and another manned mission to finalize the hab. Bonus points if we can just scooch the ship into the cave after it lands as the initial hab.

I think we're just deeply divided on what we think ten thousand focused engineers with hundreds of billions of dollars in budget can accomplish in 10 years. Remember, we're talking about a national or international focused initiative here.

Show HN: Pākiki Proxy – An intercepting proxy for penetration testing
Hey HN,
I've been working on an intercepting proxy for penetration testing over the last few years in my spare time.

Some points of difference from the existing tools:

* The UIs are built using the native platform frameworks, meaning they look and behave like other applications on the desktop.

* It has a fully embedded and integrated Python scripting engine.

* It’s fully native meaning it’s nicer on system resources.

* It has a number of built in scripts to automate reconnaissance, content discovery, authorisation checks, etc.

* The core of it is open source.

I'm really keen to get any feedback!
Even if the high-end vehicles have lower margin, it could still be smarter to focus on the higher cost vehicles to the maximize revenue / profit if you are production constrained. (i.e. 30% of $40,000 = $12,000 vs, 50% of $20,000 = $10,000)

Well, they are prototypes. Every car is different so Formula 1 has always been more about the car than about the driver, despite the hype being more about drivers.

A good driver can get closer to the limit of the car than a worse one, that's right. However if the limit of another car is 1 second better, even with an average driver that faster car is going to win against the slower one with the good driver.

So to win titles: build a very good car, hire a good driver (which will be more than happy to come), possibly win driving with one arm like Schumacher, Hamilton and Verstappen did in many of the last 20 years. But even without a star you're going to win anyway if the car is good enough. Williams won with Damon Hill, Ferrari almost won with Irvine in 1999 when Schumacher missed many races for injury.

He had a lot of acclaim as a young mathematician, according to Wikipedia he was taking college level math at 9 years of age. At this level of talent I believe you begin to be courted by top universities similar to D1 athlete's, not only that, but you are likely genius-level smart, so sticking you in a classroom of people your age would be doing you an intellectual disservice, similar to sticking a college freshman in a 2nd grade classroom. At this level, you are probably seen as the next Newton or Gauss, and professors will want to attach themselves to you and work alongside you. At this point you bring a ton of value to the school just for attending and they won't mind if you are testing out of course material since they are just happy for you to be there for any length of time, and it just becomes more of a formality anyway.
