You’re falling right into the ISP playbook. ISPs absolutely need far more oversight, due to the fact that they have received billions in public money to subsidize their buildouts, but then complain that they should be able to operate like a private business with only free market competition to guide them.

The first time NN came up, there was a huge whataboutism campaign by them pointing at FAANG to redirect attention to them instead of the monopoly abuses from the ISPs themselves. And the misdirection worked in many case (as evidenced by your comment).

Does FAANG need to be looked at? Yes. But it’s not an NN issue, just regular anti-trust. ISPs are at a whole other level that needs regulation. They should not be able to sell all my DNS queries, monitor all my traffic, scan my internal network from their modems, or give zero ratings to their own bundled streaming apps. All of that is related to the fact that they are the sole available option for Internet service in almost all markets.
Looks like the price decline which stopped because of covid demand and supply disruption has resumed. I think we are just 5-7 years away from the points where a solar and battery install can be paid of within 5 years specially in the developing world where installation and labour charges are not 40-50% of the cost of solar system install. The electric revolution is coming and it will bring about some dramatic changes in the world.
Cast iron wares are heavy.

I had a lovely fight with my wife many years ago, because she threw away my cast irons; in her words it was “dirty” and “sticky” and she replaced them with teflon.

Years later she is a convert—from small, personal pans to dutch ovens that heat retention makes a difference—but I’m called to move them around but she’ll ensure that it gets oiled and seasoned after every use.

We also have high quality multi-ply stainless steel pots and pans but lightweight or not those are used less frequently.

If you only want non-stick without the fuss and don’t care about the health implications, it’s hard to beat teflon.
I think it would be a waste of time if they could because it is both extremely inefficient and has nothing to do with actual frontend skills.

Why not? This isn't an absolute, so don't present it as one. Argue your point with something better than a false dichotomy, please.
Because search engines were built because they can crawl sites and if there is a monopoly, adhering to robots.txt just support them.

It is important to note that I am not saying that there should be indiscriminate crawling that breaks your site, just saying that robots.txt is not the solution.
Although you can eat vegan but low-carb or even keto, so the title of this Reddit post is misleading (no, "veganism" didn't kill Steve Jobs, only the way he decided to implement it).

The nba players union is definitely holding back the salary of Lebron. He'd be making 70%+ of the salary cap without max contracts that the union forced.
Very cool! A milestone in astrophysics!

But if we're honest, isn't nearly every meteorite a 'piece of the asteroid belt'? Raining down daily, for free?
Hi! Author here. The first test machines for Takeru were released in 1995. And it doesn't sound like the FDS kiosks had an internet connection from what I can find.

Thank you for the link. It was a very interesting read!
There’s a layer of material between the fission fuel and the superconductors, same as the inside of a nuclear reactor. It has to withstand not just fission fragments, but also the infrared from the rather hot fuel pellets in the core. An earlier paper (<https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/frspt.2023.1197...>) estimates that for a ship designed to go to Mars and back it would have to withstand 20MW/m² just from that alone.
The custom element spec definitely only deals with the mechanics of when are where to run your component's lifecycle code - it says nothing about data. So your choices are basically property accessors, which are interoperable, but require prop-drilling for global-ish data, or something proprietary like a state management library.

The Web Components Community Group (WCCG) is offering something of a third way with the community protocols: https://github.com/webcomponents-cg/community-protocols

The Context protocol provides tree-scoped ambient data in an interoperable way. It's implemented by Lit and FAST (I believe). It doesn't replace a data store, but it's often used to provide data stores to components, and at least reduce some coupling.
We should be open & honest in our discussions about whether we genuinely recommend a platform or project to others, including the details which underlies our thoughts.

As I go through rewrites and greenfield projects and so forth, I begin to realize that for any particular technology you are not simply having a relationship with a static list of pros and cons, but you're also having a living relationship with the team behind the work.

In other words, a bet on TypeScript is also a bet on the TypeScript team, and in my experience the TS team is very fast at their work. This makes me more forgiving of bugs. Similarly, a bet on Terraform is also a bet on Hashicorp.

Here we have someone recommending a choice of F# over Elm because betting on the leadership is allegedly not good. This is not character assassination. The commentator is not criticizing Evan on irrelevant private affairs and by extension saying that you shouldn't use Elm. Evan has created a company and is advocating for his product; he is a public figure and is being criticized on the grounds of project management.

It still shows rooftop clearly to clearly have the worst LCOE. I bet the assumptions for Rooftop dont include suboptimal builds, like builds in San Francisco, on a north facing roof, under a tree, with storage.

Rooftop can be good in niches, but it is hardly a panacea.

Email obfuscation has a lot more techniques than what would be encountered in a text response, so I find the title too broad.

I'd be interested to see attempts to extract emails from pages that utilize javascript/css. For example, I have at least two implementations of email obfuscation on my personal website:

1. for non-js users, I have a collection of elements in a noscript tag where a subset are hidden or shown based on some css which uses a combination of pseduo classes and selectors to only show the (full) email after some page interaction

2. for js users, I run some pretty trivial javascript (string manipulation to build b64 encoded string, then decode) to modify the dom after certain events fire
The title in metric but the article in imperial had me very confused.
Likewise, thanks for being polite.

I agree with you that regulation has costs. I never intended to communicate that it didn't. Yet, at risk of stating the obvious, the fact that something has costs doesn't make it not worth doing if its benefits are greater than its costs. The question then returns to the crystal ball; will society be better off if we allow or deny the merger? I get a sense that you are of the opinion that free markets generally lead to good outcomes. Me too! Central planning of economies is generally to be avoided. Yet at the same time, I view large concentrations of corporate power as an endogenous source of unfreedom in otherwise free markets. Big companies, if we're not careful, become mini central planners in their own right.

Are you suggesting that the only reason competition might not exist is because of government regulation? If so, that's not correct. Being free to enter a market doesn't mean that it's viable to do so. Barriers to entry are common in all kinds of markets so it's not as though people can always start competing against a weak vendor. Exclusive contracts, the threat of predatory pricing, increasing returns to scale, high switching costs, network effects, IP monopoly, geographic isolation, etc can mean that it's simply infeasible to enter a market and start competing against an underperforming incumbent. Local cable companies are a good example. If you want to start a cable company, you either have to lease cable from an existing owner or lay your own cable. The former is infeasible if your competitor owns the cable, and the latter may be prohibitively expensive. All that to say... merger control is an important tool which can help prevent markets from becoming more concentrated when barriers to entry are high [1].

Regarding WhatsApp & Instagram, we don't know what the counterfactuals are if Facebook didn't acquire them. It's not a dichotomy where either WhatsApp was either acquired or would cease to exist. Indeed, there could be another world where Instagram (a startup monetised via ads) merged with WhatsApp (another startup without a monetisation plan) to challenge Facebook. Perhaps that additional competition would have led to all sorts of innovations that we haven't thought of yet. Of course I can't prove that, but again, we're back to the crystal ball again ;)

Finally, it's important to acknowledge that antitrust is political. That's because public power (the state) is used to discipline/reshape private power (privately held firms). Furthermore, it's asking a very political question: who gets to coordinate economic activity? [2] Many other areas of law are similarly political (e.g. taxation law, electoral law), so antitrust isn't special. Yet it does explain to some extent why there are strong disagreements. That's okay :)

I tried this. It was a huge pain in the ass, made a big mess, took a lot of time, and still isn’t perfect. It definitely has a better nonstick surface now, but while I’m usually inclined to be cheap and do things myself,
I might spring for a pre-polished one in the future.
In this case I suggest scepticism towards the theory that Berlin nightclubs intentionally and openly exclude American tourists (a pretty wealthy class). When the only proof is a random HN post. This doesn't even pass the sniff test. Sounds more like a urban legend started by some tourist that was bounced for any other arbitrary reason.

I don't MacKays estimates but the cited study seems to assume a capacity factor of 50% for a 15 MW turbine.

Average turbine capacity of turbines installed in 2021 was 7.4 MW but all manufacturers seem to have 15+MW designs in the work [1]. So the projection is slightly optimistic IMO. The capacity factor seems slightly more optimistic at 50% as worldwide average seem to have fluctuated between 35 and 45% [2]. Although other numbers are closer to 60% for the UK [3]

Not sure how the same group that is screaming about the existential threat can also be so active in blocking nuclear power. It can't help but appear the real goal is deindustrialization, not fighting climate change.

Instead of making your software use less energy, help advocate for clean abundant cheap electricity.
Well the DJ interviewed in the NPR article that is a resident of Berghain is from Minneapolis originally and has a midwest accent so there is that.
Strings are a primitive type. Names are not strings in the same way Dates are not strings. They can be implemented, represented, and printed as strings, but they have behaviors and meaning that the primitive string type does not.

To use another example, a binary tree is not an array, although it can be implemented using an array.

Money is not a floating point value, and woe to the programmer that tries to use float for money.
This exact approach can be used to enable mass-scale censorship, and that is terrifying.

Let's say you're running a website where users can buy and sell musical instruments. To avoid your astronomical fees, some users will put their contact details in their offers and then make the deal off site. Before LLMs, you couldn't really stop this, you could use regexes to block long strings of digits and strings containing '@' characters, but such methods could easily be circumvented. LLMs have almost human-like understanding of text, so whatever obfuscation method you think of, if a human can see through it, there's a large chance that an LLM can too.

Combine that with Whisper, and you can block anything, from conspiracy theories, to statements critical of your country's government, to methods to bypass your service's anti-adblock protections.

>When in the 70s?

Lates 70s. Maybe 78 or 79.

The school wasn't overly obsessive about safety. They still us to regularly throw sodium into water to show what happened and that sort of thing. However it was a military school and the discipline was fierce. So perhaps they were more concerned about the theft than what was actually stolen.

I also despair about the public's general lack of education on scientific topics, to the point now where the word 'chemicals' is a synonym for unnatural or bad. Everything is made of chemicals and it always has been!
Not the OP, but surprisingly it didn’t take long. I just worked through the helix-tutor and was good to go in a few hours. Helix isn’t simply an alternative set of keybindings—it’s a different way of thinking about selections and actions. Once that thinking becomes intuitive, Helix’s keybindings just come naturally.
Everyone is trying as hard as they can to squeeze the consumer with higher and higher subscription revenues. This won't end well.
I suspect that some screws, depending on location in the device, need to be stainless due to moisture exposure

Some types of stainless are non-magnetic and thus can't be picked up with a magnetic screwdriver, thus the need to hand-feed the screw
Tax motor vehicles based on the distance between a short driver (160 cm, say) and the nearest visible part of the road in front, and the nearest visible part of the road on the passenger side, without camera assistance.

This would directly target the features that make them unsafe, and it is in line with the safety improvements that are being imposed on buses and heavy goods vehicles.
Hah, yeah that's an interesting one for sure. Sounds effectively like the plot of a Brendan Fraser, just replace Covid with nuclear fallout.

Can't say that I consider myself a prepper, and definitely not to the extent of having a bomb shelter stocked with years of rations. I can see the view I raised here being more common in the prepped space, though to me it feels more like a rational retrospective (I'm biased obviously).

So much effort was put into making it clear that Covid wasn't similar to a common cold, to the point of labeling such a comparison and the person making it as dangerous.

If that really is how medical specialists treat it now, it seems worthwhile for us (or at least those who made such claims) to revisit how they got it that wrong. Maybe it comes down to simply learning more since then, which is totally reasonable but also something that could have been expected and led to a more reasoned and less certain message earlier on.
> If people survive, will this time period and our selfish inaction be referred to with hatred and confusion by our descendants?

How is WW I judged by people living today? Or the industrial revolution (both good and bad parts)?

I suppose once there's no living memory of this event, it will be seen as "just humans being humans".

Personally I think humanity will survive, but many of us - including me - will have a much lower lifespan and die of preventable (at least today) causes.

The first modern heatwave in Europe killed in excess of 70k people. Subsequent ones didn't. I see myself as one of those poor bastards that will be caught in a new type of calamity before we adapt.
This is cool, though it did make a mistake while converting hex number to decimal (0x132004 = 1253380, not 1249284). Proof reading this can be a big pain. It can detect those patterns out of a long piece string like nothing, yet it fails at basic conversion, which is really beyond me.
Imagine you’re grilling steak (or making lasagna, or cooking chili, etc) for the first time. The same principles apply. It’s easy to look this up, and once you do, the problem is solved.

Expecting a cooking tool to hold your hand to this degree doesn’t seem reasonable to me.
To be clear, it doesn't support casting, which is what the previous commenter was asking for.

It runs directly on android tv. The app even says that there is no support for phones or tablets so casting isn't going to work.

I also agree that casting is the major missing feature from all these apps. Mirroring might be a substitute for some but, again to be clear, it isn't the same as casting and in most cases the quality is going to suffer significantly.
So when we say we don't need surgery then are we conceding that there is no climate emergency and things might not be as catastrophic as they are sometimes made out to be. If we have time to look for less intrusive methods than cloud seeding maybe we have time to also look for less economically intrusive methods
I’m almost certain that the manual gives an approximate time range for each mode.

Europe in general, and Germany in particular is getting old. Clubbing is predominantly a young person’s pass time. All youth oriented activities will increasingly wither there as the years advance.
https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/10/well/eat/sugar-cancer.htm... "While experts say that diets high in added sugars may increase your risk of cancer over a lifetime, cutting out all sugars doesn’t actually fight existing tumors."

Many tumors are also catabolic to start with, e.g. https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/proceedings-of-the-n...: "Cancer-associated malnutrition is driven by reduced dietary intake and by underlying metabolic changes (such as inflammation, anabolic resistance, proteolysis, lipolysis and futile cycling) induced by the tumour and activated immune cells."

Can you explain the lawful utility of crypto?
Minivans are not small, if you have problems with the SUV size then why is a minivan suddenly okay? It's the same size car with a differently styled body and without towing capacity. E.g. Toyota Sienna is the same width and length as BMW X7 and less than 4" shorter in height. And Chrysler Pacifica is longer and wider than either of these (also less than 3" shorter in height than X7). And X7 is a big SUV that I rarely see, most SUVs on the streets around me are something like Toyota RAV4, which is half foot narrower than Pacifica, shorter in length more than a foot and shorter in height than any of the above.
Awesome, thanks!

I consider my respiratory system to be pretty healthy - I don't have breathing difficulties or sinusitis or any allergies - but it was so difficult visiting Delhi in February this year, which is not even the peak pollution month. I have no idea why some tech companies are still there.
I think it would be interesting to try a 14-day workweek, working 9 days on and 5 days off.

The advantage being that you can do a lot more on your weekends (international travel on a weekend is now possible), and during the week you'd have a lot of uninterrupted time to work. I imagine the productivity would be similar to a five-day week but it would feel like a lot more time off.
Dunno, we never felt the need to damage the car to get some more space :-) It just doesn't make sense to use a jumbo jet to get around Kent.
We are all going to die! But nuclear power is to expensive, so let's sit in the roads and block traffic and subsidize Teslas for rich people.

Either we are under an existential threat, in which case nuclear power is an amazingly cheap way to save 8+ billion people, or there is some other agenda at play.

Its not meaningless because the Ayurvedic scriptures are much older and the original scriptures that mention it first.

This is very important to note and to try and understand why it is so.

The use of turmeric dates back nearly 4000 years to the Vedic culture in India, where it was used as a culinary spice and had some religious significance. It probably reached China by 700 ad, East Africa by 800 ad, West Africa by 1200 ad, and Jamaica in the eighteenth century.
