Performance? Yeah there was once a time that Chrome was a bit snappier than Firefox, but nothing significant. I think it's mostly the placebo effect of people just thinking they are using a faster/slower browser.

Development of devtools was indeed quite good early on in Chrome. But Firefox already had the Firebug extension, which was basically the first kind of browser devtools as far as I can remember. And then Firefox also eventually implemented the devtools natively, and Firebug eventually disappeared. And that did take some time while Chrome had the devtools already native. But still Firefox with their open plugin system allowed for Firebug to evolve, and Chrome's devtools (and also Firefox's) was for sure inspired by Firebug.

So why do people use Chrome really? Placebo, hype, lack of historical context, and ignorance of privacy, I would say.
There are at least a dozen C++ intros that go through every little detail like this and I don't get it. I have a pretty good ability to retain a lot of information presented this way, and I've been programming in various C-like languages for long enough that much of this isn't new to me, but this doesn't seem like a good way to learn the material. I'd much rather work through actual programs and iterate on them. I imagine that a lot of people who would be looking for something this basic aren't even going to retain most of this nor understand why they would need most of these things they are memorizing.
Body panel angles and speed are the big ones.

Or, to put it another way, can a soft body deform around the vehicle and be thrown away from the impact? The sharp wedge shape from the front grille to the hood kinda says "No" to me.

Regardless, it will be good to see what comes out of testing.
I just want water leak sensors that make a loud alarm noise, I don't need wifi connected crap with hubs. I can use my preexisting camera setup to pick up the alarm noise and alert me. I'm home most of the time and if I'm not for an extended period, I typically turn the water off (not entirely, just in zones). Anyone know of any analog water leak sensors?
Each video tends to start with a couple of minutes dedicated to story telling. One of the videos I found most interesting was the last one about multiplayer maps because Dario had a lot to say about designing the maps.
Was there ever a time someone who wanted to find out more about xorg x11 knew (without already knowing about it) to just type "x.org" instead of "x11.org" or "xorg.org" or "xorg.com" or "xserver.org" and so on, finding non-existent responses or alternative groups who call themselves x?

Collision and needing to "divine" the domain seem inherent to having a name system. Both this and the need for a TLD-insensitive lookup were solved by making the address bar also the search bar so people can use search engines to find new things instead of DNS.
> I can't help but think the actual motivation behind your attitude is not environmentalism but a pessimism about technology that amounts to an extreme form of conservatism.

Edit: Fervo energy is using the same exact techniques used by oil/gas for the hydraulic fracturing so yes the risk exists, but they didn't run into any issues. Seismic risk is typically highest near water disposal wells, which continuously inject water at high rates (>10000 bbl/d). These geothermal wells were fractured once, and whatever is injected is produced a few hours later (no net increase of volume after the initial frac job).

From the white paper (https://eartharxiv.org/repository/object/5704/download/11142...) -

"Prior to starting the operations phase of this project, a preliminary screening assessment was performed to evaluate the potential risk of induced seismicity at the project site. We followed the guidelines outlined by the US Department of Energy’s Protocol for Addressing Induced Seismicity Associated with Enhanced Geothermal Systems (Majer et al. 2012). Based on our analysis, we developed and implemented a Traffic Light System (TLS) to mitigate the risk of potential induced seismicity associated with the project. The TLS system was in effect throughout all major phases of the project from July 2020 through June 2023, including drilling, completions, stimulation, and well testing. All observed seismicity fell within the Green TLS protocol, with no significant impact or incident throughout the full duration of the
project."

Not all languages have a great interop story with Rust. Binding the JNI is especially tricky, for example. Furthermore, when performance isn't important, the need to package and compile Rust code may be an unnecessary hassle.

It is not complex. AND logic requires double positive input for positive output. One input is clearly not positive (and the article suggest that the other was coached under duress into, if not exactly consent, frustrated acquiescence.) Therefore the output of the function cannot be positive.

The hospital administrators (or doctors?) decided the ends justified the means. The policeman decided he was a hired gun with no agency. And here they are.

You may be relieved to find that California is extremely restrictive with respect to building skyscrapers and considered by many to be incredibly accommodating of private automobiles.

Anyway, this is a gross mischaracterization of my comment. Wanting my child to be able to bike to school safely doesn't mean burning cars. And I explicitly noted Paris since it's an example of a dense city with surprisingly low building heights.
Uh, I don’t think so. Maybe there are some classes of homomorphic encryption where that is possible, but it’s not a general property of it. For example, you can’t do that with Witness Encryption which is a type of homomorphic encryption.

Stainless steel has been around longer than cars. I'd say it's fairly safe to assume that some R&D department has done exactly that. Their criteria was probably slightly different than Tesla's, but reduced costs (pennies matter when building things at scale) and increased safety (fewer fines, recalls, etc) are going to be the same.

Ask HN: WPA2 Shared Secret Rotation: How to Avoid Downtime?
Let's assume you like to rotate your WPA2 shared secret (SSID passphrase) once a year. How do you do it without downtime and with minimal fuss? Is it possible to do it without changing SSID?

Here's how I do it:

1. Start with existing SSID `wireless-net`

2. Add new virtual SSID `wireless-net-A` with new shared secret.

3. one by one update each client to the new SSID + shared secret

4. once empty, disable `wireless-net`

The two big downsides are : (1) updating clients 1-by-1 and (2) losing SSID name . Also, some routers do not support virtual SSID

Any better approach?

37 seats out of 150 is a hair under 25%: a largish plurality by Dutch many-party standards, but hardly an overwhelming mandate. Anything Wilders wants to do has to be accomplished by consensus with other parties who want to work with him. We'll see if that even happens. What this should be, however, is a wake-up call to the other parties that they cannot take support for granted.

> You miss another user story: IT department wants to self host a video distribution platform on their intranet and users need to embed video in intranet CMS (blogs, wikis, kb, etc.) and they will watch those videos at home, at the office and in between places.

It's not missed, that story doesn't exist.

In any place where IT can even think about self hosting video they likely control the user's entire tech stack and don't need a super flexible player, they can just use a video tag...

On the other hand a company like this is more likely to use a SaaS product because they would have done a cost benefit analysis and figured spinning up a server and allocating bandwidth which could include significant network stack upgrades would cost far too much money to self host video.

Also it's free to stick the video on YouTube as an unisted video and embed the player... There is also other platforms that can be paid for the exact same service...
This is just doomer material not really based on any fundamental limits.

If someone took the technology of the early 1900s and looked forward at the population growth, the conclusion would have been as bleak as yours, if not worse.

Topsoil depletion isn’t a problem for people that know how to farm. Market forces will quickly incentivize people who don’t understand it when there is starvation at stake. Right now we have such an over abundance of affordable food that it’s just not a global threat.

Freshwater access is likewise a complete non-issue at a global scale. The absolute worst case is people pay for it like in Israel with desalination, but there even in the US in the driest parts, we’re still arguing about letting farmers grow the dumbest crops possible for free.

This. There's a choice regarding data identifying you that's made by someone who's not you.

I'm also thinking of 2FA things many corporations mandate, requiring the use of a phone number, application or both, without them handing you a work phone. Under no circumstances will I give my personal phone number to Google or Microsoft because I don't want them to link my work and personal stuff. Right now, I'm locked out of a corporate account at Google due to such refusal.
What do you mean by ‘a player that decodes an app on an AppleTV’?

If your AppleTV is running an app that is playing media, that app is the player. And that app will add the new keys, that it finds in the media it is playing, to its revocation list so that app can no longer play any protected media to the blocked device. It will refuse to communicate with the inline box because the key used by the box is now on the revocation list.

And there probably is some mechanism that causes this to apply systemwide, either because the encryption and list management is in some dedicated chip or because the list is shared systemwide.

Rust has a number of opinions that may not fit how you want to work. If you want to do a shared library rust will fight you. If you want to break your project up into multiple repositories rust will fight you. Rust will fight you if you don't want to use cargo as your build/package system. You can make it work, but the above are things that may or may not be acceptable costs to you.
Thanks for that, exactly what I was meaning!
I am a medical physicist. I know how the MRI works.

The goal of the MRI machine is to make the patient's body emit radio waves, which are then measured. Obviously there is some RF going on! (This corresponds to a spatial Fourier transform etc.)

And while it might not seem "often" to you, it's worth considering that the RF levels in the room are enough that we care about tissue heating and sparks on nonmagnetic conductors. This is many thousands of times stronger than a TV signal. There are many cases where the patients require "assistance", which is used in roughly the same sense that cats require assistance in taking a shower. Then there are spectrometrists and so forth — not every MRI is like the one you get as an outpatient with a broken leg.

Again I love technology. I probably have more of it in my house than most people. I'm literally surrounded by two laptops and a desktop right now (with two other laptops in the room). Hell, I just bought a force feedback steering wheel yesterday, and it's super fun (I shouldn't have bought it considering what I'm saying here, but I did).

I would love if there was a technological solution to these things, and the human will to do so. I don't even want people to stop searching for technological solutions, it just doesn't seem like it will ever be enough considering human nature.

I also suspect that throwing more technology at the problem might just add more problems, like taking a shot to lose weight that ends up giving you pancreatic cancer a few years later (based on an actual warning label on an Ozempic-like sample my doctor gave me once).

Edit: Part of the reason I have so many laptops is my job requires it, and one of those extra laptops is 8 years old and I haven't recycled it yet. Whenever I change jobs I'll have to return 2 of those laptops.
I feel like I'm taking crazy pills when people talk of any slowdown in human population growth in fearful terms.

Wealthy. That probably explains some of it.
The first thing that comes to my mind for d/acc is disintegration acceleration [1]. Anyway the big problem that’s never addressed is whether humans have political control over the process. There’s a strong reason to think humans don’t; because the neoliberal political system is dominant, and the emerging alternatives appear to be even more technocapitalist. Meanwhile the attempts from both the right (fascism) and the left (communism) to reign in techno capitalism failed.

This is great to see. Enhanced geothermal is a grossly underrated technology. We're dumping billions into fusion energy research and wind and solar subsidies but it seems like we're really close to having "geothermal anywhere" we just need a little more investment.
Pollen is really impressive, for programmers it's probably the most accessible way to get professional quality typesetting for web and small documents. I use it for my resume, contracts, flyers, anything intended to printed out.

It's missing some tools you'd need for full printed & bound books but it can cover pretty much everything else. Learning curve is acceptable if you know css well and lisp somewhat. Might be a struggle if not but still more flexible for a beginner than luatex I think.

> If you scratch it, no problem, it's steel all the way down.

But, and it's a big but, it's not stainless steel all the way down. Scratched stainless steel can still rust once you've removed the chromium oxide protective layer. The protective layer can re-form as you remove the iron from the mix, but not over rust.
I use Noweb <https://www.cs.tufts.edu/~nr/noweb/>, which is, I believe, very much like nuweb. It is also LaTeX-centric, and also allows code sections to be written in any language. Within code sections, instead of depending on Noweb for code formatting, I use a syntax-aware editor. I configure Vim to recognize the language within each code section. This means that, in Vim, I get formatting and syntax highlighting.

Vim is also able to export syntax highlighted code as HTML markup. Because Noweb is modular and supports plugin filter stages, it might be possible to write a Noweb filter stage that calls Vim, translates the markup to LaTeX, and adds syntax highlighting to the document. This is something I haven't tried.

If you had a taste for a certain kind of game in the late 90s you didn't have many choices that were done by a full studio and polished. Most of the games you listed had the same "problem" of being unparalleled at the time.

Now you have a lot of clones of the same idea, plus so many of the classics are still replayable or remastered and rereleased. A good-but-not-great game has many substitutes with a similar scope and feel.
> Stranger still, melanoma most commonly affects the hip, thighs and trunk, which are areas of the body protected from the sun.

Unlikely. However, that observation is consistent with the idea that a moderate/healthy amount of sunlight damages just enough of your DNA/tissues to trigger repair pathways that ultimately protect against cancer.
The joke is how you decide that the machine isn't an agent. If you believe only meat can be an agent and given the fact that machine isn't meat, it follows machine isn't an agent. The story reverses this chauvinism and shows machines finding an idea of thinking meat absurd for arguably better reason that machines are better fit for information processing than meat.

Drain aside (which, AFAIK, would be required by code where I live) I'd love to have the washer/dryer located near bedrooms. Having the laundry off the kitchen, garage, or in the basement creates needless make-work transporting clothes across the house. I don't ever disrobe or dress outside my kitchen, garage, or in my basement. (It would make more sense if the laundry backed-up to the bedroom closets.)
Big difference though is that when a pickup truck does that, there's still a bunch of space in the bed. Here, the bike barely fits, even with the bike's front hanging out the back.

I was once like you, thinking like "It's the web! I know this!" Turns out, no...actually you don't. I've been soaking in this for a couple weeks, trying to rid my life of the last few Word documents that I use frequently and haven't converted.

Writing HTML to mimic print layout is a bit creaky, but it's trivial compared to the kinds of shenanigans that EPUB often requires.

Despite what you might tell yourself, reader applications are not web browsers, and come with their own set of idiosyncrasies and corner cases, and will gladly barf all over your HTML or (worse) sit still and refuse to move no matter how much you cajole them.

You might wonder how a magnifying glass can ignite paper, why a satellite dish on the side of a house is a dish, how a solar cooker works, why a radio telescope works, or how a roof can turn trickles of rain water into a powerful stream coming out of a drain, all of them unpowered, all of them not needing powered amplifying to have an effect.
On the contrary, that's why I find Keras 3 interesting (although I don't see myself switching anytime soon). It supports both PyTorch and JAX, and Keras Core models/layers can be used interchangeably with PyTorch modules: https://twitter.com/fchollet/status/1697020631752298982
The problem with waiting is that there are potential tipping points where the Earth itself begins releasing carbon. It's entirely possible (perhaps even likely; my impression is that the scientists don't really know, but are terrified by the possibilites already) that by the time we see what you consider real consequences, the process will have runaway far beyond humanity's ability to control.

This sounds like a great sci-fi premise. We think we’re being attacked by intergalactic missiles but they’re really just probes sent by a more advanced, albeit clumsy civilization in an attempt to move fast and break things in the name of discovery.

Humanity vehemently debates the meaning of the “attacks” but ultimately decides we must go to war with these aliens. Eventually the aliens do arrive, interested only in peaceful communication. They disarm our arsenal trivially, but understand why we wanted to fight them and apologize for the misunderstanding.
