It is nice to see new fields of science, it shows the scale of where science could go.
I'd say I see more tailwind than bootstrap for newer sites, but that's anecdotal.

But the solution is not to ban cars.
Mist people does not want kids to be bullied at school.
But the solution is not to ban schools.

Right! And the solution also isn’t “fuck it. Too complicated to do perfectly. No discipline in schools / no traffic laws”.

Yep. Same problems as torrent trackers and search engines.

> When I see an example of a successful commune or communist society, I'll think about changing my mind.

It may not be obvious, but buying and selling land and resources for personal gain is somewhat novel in the history of humanity.

Basing the entirety of society and law on the notion of a single person being able to own a piece of the earth, which they are allowed to deny others access to if they like, is unique to our particular time and culture.

One could say with a fair amount of certainty that a 'commune' aka a village or tribe is the basis of the vast majority of the human experience.
Beautiful! Nice work! Super applause!

funny - trending where exactly?
> They only cared about was the lawn mowed. Using scissors, a push mower, a gas mower, or a rider mower all came with a huge variance in how hard the work was. None of that had any influence on what I was paid for it.

That may have been true for you, but it won't be true for everyone. Sometimes we really do value the work that went into something and that will have an influence on what we pay for it. It's why people will pay for an orchestra instead of a laptop and some software. Its why people will pay extra for "handcrafted artisanal" items that could easily be pumped out by slaves in a factory overseas and sold for much much less. The large amount of effort involved is a big part of the charm for a lot of art forms.

Sometimes hard work can result in success. Some people produce a lot of value but never see success. Some people manage success without doing anything of value at all. Some fail upwards and gain success while actually producing negative value. If we could really reduce the formula for success down to a catchy soundbite there'd be a lot more successful people in the world.
To be fair to the journalist who wrote the linked article, they showed the spike and years previous to covid.
That makes good sense to exempt those kinds of readers from the soft lock. And given that's possible, it would likely make sense for some similar kind of leeway on EV charging.

Not that there's likely to be any real repercussions in many places given a lack of criminal enforcement around theft/fraud, but EV charging requires the user of the stolen card to stick around in a given area to charge the car, so it's likely lower risk than other places where a stolen card can be used for a large transaction in a short period of time.

I imagine you'd eventually get some people going around offering people "cheap" EV charges for free (for cash), and then tapping a stolen card on the reader, but there's always going to be someone trying to exploit stolen cards in innovative ways.
> I don't care if exchanges trade back and forth all day to simulate fake demand (volume/exchanges between wallets that aren't actually going to transactions for goods/services aka crypto isn't really being used at $26b/day).

It sounds like you do care because you want to see “real” demand (unless I’m misinterpreting). This is the same reason wash trading is illegal in the regular markets
> The whole approach is very sensitive to the detonation height, asteroid composition and color, rotational characteristics, etc. So Burkey’s group has really made a simulation framework for modeling the right thing to do for a given asteroid.

And don't forget that most asteroids are spinning over its own center-of-mass. The thrust generated by evaporating rocks on one of its sides will be changing direction as the asteroid spins around. Think of a rocket with thrust but no stabilization. Cool idea but very hard to make practical.
> It seems clear to me that whether we retain autonomy, mobility, and health is hardly up to us.

There are ways to dramatically increase or decrease your odds. There are no hard guarantees but statistically it's extremely clear that your lifestyle is a huge differentiator. Obesity and diabetes are easy to avoid for the vast majority of people and will absolutely fuck you up. Even cancers are like 70%+ lifestyle/environmental related.

Just like you have people who survive car crashes in 1980s cars while not wearing a seatbelt and people who die in a 2023 car with 12 airbags while wearing a seat belt. Your conclusion shouldn't be that seatbelts don't do much

My gf's dad was on the way down, 65, getting fat, low mobility, out of breath all the time, &c. we motivated him, he lost 35kg+ in a year, no more shortness of breath, much better mobility, all health metrics improved, it doesn't mean he'll live longer, but he'll for sure live better
I forget exactly where, but one analogy I read was that an insect's brain is less like a CPU with various dedicated areas for different general forms of processing, and more like a Swiss watch, which uses extraordinary precision to get a few very elegant specialised functions out of relatively small components.
Yes, org mode is pure genius. The only issue with org mode is it used to only work well from emacs itself. I use past tense as I've address that issue as an attempt to get more colleague to use org mode when building this: https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/filestash

It takes virtually any org mode document stored anywhere and will expose the org mode export so you can browse the generated pages like a website available as not only a regular html one but also a pdf one with links and all that emacs generate on the fly. Example with a random github repo that have a couple org mode documents:

- pdf export: https://demo.filestash.app/login?type=git&repo=https://githu...

- html export: https://demo.filestash.app/login?type=git&repo=https://githu...

- txt export: https://demo.filestash.app/api/export/private/text/plain/REA... and more ...

It's not super fast as it runs emacs everytime you need to render a page and run the export from there but considering the title of this article, it is well within the theme of blogging like a hacker.
If you have any firsthand experience, could you tell what is the order of magnitude of such payments? $1/mo? $10? $100?
Indeed, perhaps there will be some way to detect latex based asteroids in the future and avoid any unnecessary nuclear deployment.
This tutorial: http://web.archive.org/web/20120314005352/https://www.richar... although now defunct, makes a good start. Around halfway through there's a heading "Abandoning good object-oriented practice" which gets to the point you're asking about.

> Taxing the farmer is a problem because every person in the middle is marking up that carbon tax before passing it along. Just tax our food and call it a day. Otherwise companies will just continueto buy the tomatoes from Mexico and SHIP IT ACROSS 3 &$+#+$ COUNTRIES.

That is the point of a carbon tax, to apply it at the root cause of carbon emissions ensuring no one avoids paying the cost, and hence incentivizing everyone to reduce consumption.

And the tomatoes are coming from Mexico because that is where the procurers can get them at the best price to quality ratio for their customers. If you think you can find a better source, I am sure the stores would love to hear it, because they are not paying to ship them across multiple countries for fun.
Hello! Author of this project here. Thank you for posting this to HN.

A little background about this project: This is a tiny project inspired by the very popular Tixy project (https://tixy.land/). While Tixy supports JavaScript expressions to determine the size and colour of circles in a 16x16 grid, FXYT comes with its own tiny, stack-based language that is written in postfix notation. The input code is evaluated for each cell in a 256x256 grid and the result of evaluation defines the colour of each cell.

Can we correct the title to the correct short form: "U.S. workers say weed killer banned in 50 countries is giving them Parkinson's"?
Where did I claim that only ? I just have some elderly innovators in my personal life who invented important laser technologies which are not crucial in every day life and they are exactly those cosmopolitans you were talking about.
I just wanted to give you another perspective
I’ve seen it called “skimpflation”. Skimp on ingredients instead of shrinking the product.
OK, let's put it another way then.

Whenever there is a hack there is panic in the US about credits and credit scores. You are provided a "monitoring" for a year in case things south (and hopefully a way to recover).

You hear about what to do to have/keep a credit score in the US.

So this is something important.

These considerations do not exist in Europe, nobody ever discusses this. It means there is a fundamental difference about how credits are apprised in Europe and the US.

I do not even mention the fact that we virtually do not have credit cards. That is cards where there is a minimum amount to pay back and the rest is credited.

So this is really different.
> That's the base of nepotism/corruption and is a big problem.

And this is something I can't understand.
Years ago, a newspaper advocated, essentially shortened, 'dissolving family structures because corruption is higher in countries with strong family relationships.' The journalist concluded his article with more or less the words 'Mom, Dad, I'm sorry, but I have to serve the greater good'.

And I don't believe that neighborly assistance is the basis for corruption. And I also believe that neighborly assistance is much closer to human nature and offers many more human benefits than a transparent state that is free of corruption. I don't think you should balance the two against each other in such a way, or even indulge in the latter at the expense of the former.

wow - this ignore below is my first bad experience on this page. For me it came out of nowhere and I can't even explain it nor take a stance on it. Such a shame :(
ship code into production, and iterate into good solutions to complex problems based on feedback

It makes me sad that this is even considered a serious possibility. It implies that as an industry we have so successfully convinced our customers to accept and pay for junk - as if software being junk is somehow normal or inevitable - that making an effort to competently build a good product doesn't generate enough competitive advantage to be a reliable winning strategy.
The fact that ctrl+c copies on my computer and I can expect the same at my mom's computer or my friend's computer seems like a blessing not a curse.

> If "Chlorine Bleach" is diluted from 5.0% concentration (NaClO in H2O) to 4.5%, that's simple and obvious.

This can be surprisingly dangerous. Home canning recipes expect vinegar to have a certain, long-standard level of acidity to be safe.

In the past year or two, some brands have very quietly change their acetic acid percentage.

Small changes in other ingredients can really throw off safe recipes, like tomatoes going from 15 oz to 14.5 oz. That changes acid levels, too.
>Because integration tests come with (extremely) high costs.

Unit tests usually have lower capex and higher opex. It often takes less time and effort to write a single lower level unit test but that test will require more frequent maintenance as the code around it evolves due to refactoring.

Integration often tests have higher capex because they rely upon a few complex integration points - e.g. to set up a test to talk to a faux message queue takes time. Getting playwright set up takes quite a chunk of up front time. Building an integration with a faux SMTP endpoint takes time. What is different is that these tools are a lot more generic so it's easier to stand on the shoulders of others and they are more reusable and it's easier to leverage past integrations to write future scenarios. E.g. you don't have to write your own playwright somebody already did that and once you have playwright integrated into your framework any web-related steps on future scenarios suddenly become much easier to write.

Whereas with unit tests the reusability of code and fixtures written in previous tests is generally not as high.

You have to also take into account the % of false negatives and false positives.

I find unit tests often raise more false positives because ordinary legitimate refactoring that introduced no bugs is more likely to break them. This reduces the payoff because you will have more ongoing test failures requiring investigation and maintenance work to mitigate this.

I also find that the % of false negatives is lower. This is harder to appreciate because you wouldn't ever expect, for instance, a unit test to catch that somebody tweaked some CSS that broke a screen or broke email compatibility with outlook, but these are still bugs and they are bugs that integration tests at a high level can catch with appropriate tooling but unit tests will never, ever, ever catch.

>But when you skew the testing pyramid, or worse, make it an testing-ice-cream-cone, that ROI can and will often quickly become negative.

The pyramid is an arbitrary shape that assumes a one size fits all approach works for all software. I think it is one of the worst ideas to ever grace the testing community. What was particularly bad was Google's idea that flakiness should be avoided by avoiding writing tests and applying good engineering practices to root out the flakiness. It was an open advertisement that they were being hampered by their own engineering capabilities.

I do agree that this is a cost/benefit calculation and if you shift some variable (e.g. E2E test tooling is super flaky and you've got good, stable abstractions to write your unit tests against, you've got a lot of complex calculations in your code), then that changes the test level payoff matrix, but I find that the costs and benefits work out pretty consistently to favor integration tests these days.
>decentralized anything never works at scale

Ever heard of blockchain ? And don't tell me its a very precise case, blockchains are used for a lot of things
As evidenced by how Fediverse works (Mastodon for example); The networks actively ban bad acting networks, have very active set of moderators on each network, etc. How is this any different from centralized thing?
Yes, you would essentially have to do a randomized controlled trial on humans. So any study that fits that bill would most likely be illegal and/or unethical.
no, it's just what happens with any process; as you gain more experience with it, you learn more about it, so you can get more and more controlled results

The point is not in not having meetings, but in having useless and inconsequential meetings.

It's much like requiring that any computation should either return a value or produce an effect. Without that, it's just waste.
I agree but for two issues with Android Auto/CarPlay that I hope they can fix, but might prove difficult since AA/CarPlay is, AFAIU, just a video feed:

- for EVs, route planning since AA/CarPlay doesn't know anything about the SoC, and battery pre-conditioning since the car doesn't know anything about the navigation

- likewise, no HUD integration with the navigation

This only really matters for longer road trips though.
The idea that the younger partner can't make his or her own decisions is deeply disturbing.

Nothing in the decentralized design prevents an host from blocking one video. By "we can't strike, shadow-ban, or demonetize you just because we disagree", he simply meant that the net prevents that. Like tor, a relay cannot be held liable for content on the tor network.

DRBD was nice to use. Great thing about it is that you can put it below the existing filesystem. I don't remember how it works, maybe it puts metadata at the end of block device so filesystem should be shrinked before

I remember moving a huge NFS partition which was experiencing constant writes to another server with DRBD. With almost zero downtime. So is a nice tool if you want to move a filesystem with such huge amount of files that even iterating over the file tree takes hours

Historically, maybe, but otherwise that's not how it works.

Nowadays, when a new process enters risk production, yields are expected to be sub-optimal (I think I read that some of the recent stuff TSMC was making for Apple was below 50%) but it's an economic imperative that they improve (and they do). Abandoning a process once you've built an assembly line would be an existential crisis for a high-end semiconductor company, given the billions of dollars it costs to get to that point (which is a big reason why Intel has been between a rock and a hard place for the past 5 years or so).

Shor's algorithm and chemical simulations have been implemented on quantum computers, albeit very simple cases (factoring twenty-one, observing conical intersections). I don't think Grover's has been yet, but it's not much different than Shor's. Bayesian neural networks are purely hype.
Partially, I think, this is due to fast and ubiquotous internet. I remember the days when games were sold on physical media, played single player on a nost of the time offline computer. Same for other software, updates and patches were cumbersome and expensive. Hence, software had to be complete when shipped.

Fast forward, today everything can be patched and fixed OTA. It seems that possibility made it possible to ship pre-Beta stuff. That all those OTA updates are an additional revenue stream didn't help.
