They can protest all they want, you can't legally deport a citizen. That's just a bunch of crazy talk.

If they have people who have gained citizenship but failed to integrate, then that proves the citizenship process is faulty and can be gamed, and needs a reform instead of handing passports out like candy, but once you decide to give someone citizenship you can't retroactively take it back and deport them.

The fault lies with who designed and approved the citizenship process(probably some clueless bureaucrats), not with who gained said citizenship, as they got it fair and square according to the law.

There's a stupid article like this every decade where the writer thinks he's being edgy when he's actually just regurgitating the same shit spewed by regular people every 10 years. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but really stupid people who write articles like this think their eyes are the center of the universe.

Take a look at this from over a decade ago:

Part of the article laments how the shape of cars have turned into "cough drops" and "globular tears". Clever but I can also write a edgy article about how idiots in the past designed cars as if they were hideous boxes and the concept of a curve was too advanced for their square minds to comprehend.

I think that what happened is Bayh-Dole legislation passed c.1980 which allowed corporations to exclusively license patents generated with taxpayer funds at public and private universities, so they lost their incentive to maintain large privately-funded research centers, which used to be valuable because they'd have exclusive control of any patents. A side-effect of Bayh-Dole was the gradual conversion of academic institutions into for-profit commercial operations, especially in the STEM fields like chemistry, engineering, medical research, etc. - with accompanying declines in academic integrity, open data sharing, etc.

Eliminating Bayh-Dole would mean university-based patents generated with taxpayer funds would be available to any interested party under a non-exclusive licensing program, and then corporations would again be incentivized to maintain private research centers - which IIRC also served a tax-writeoff function for AT&T in Bell Lab's heyday.
It's disheartening to see such drastic disparities between foster kids and their peers in terms of both education and incarceration rates. It really highlights just how important having a stable home life is to shaping the future outcomes for kids and how big of a disadvantage it is for those who don't have this privilege. Sad that we live in a society where we can't provide a healthy, stable environment so many kids.

I don’t have a relationship with them- they’re one agent of a handful, whom I’m obligated by my client to call a couple times a year.

This is a HN post about WFH and I’ve shared an anecdote about somebody’s toddler babbling during our work call.

I admit mine is an unpopular opinion- we’re supposed to celebrate parents who work so hard to balance their duties with their entirely elective decision to have children.
> How exactly is your body able to accomplish the same task with less energy?

Mitochondrial uncoupling proteins [1]. They control how much energy gets converted to ATP in the mitochondria and how much is lost as waste heat. As you enter a caloric deficit, UCP1 is downregulated and the mitochondria adapt to lose less energy to heat.

There's a lot of reliance on people's basic inabilities to do math.

My mother-in-law wanted us to go with her to a seminar hosted/ sponsored/ affiliated with one of the house flippers on TV.

They of course talked about their course on how to do it.

And they talked about how "nearly 8,000 people have done this!" and that if you did, too, you'd have access to their financing which, "has given our members over $100M to buy houses to flip! Some of them have flipped 20+ homes with us!" Cue oohs and ahhs.

Because $100M seems a lot. Until you're talking houses. Because in most areas in the country, even a workable flipper house is still going to be $100K, at a minimum. And $100M only buys you 1,000 houses.

Hmm. 8,000 people have paid $5,999 to do your course. And you've flipped 1,000 houses, some people doing 20+ each. That means that realistically, less than one-in-ten of the people who paid for your course ever flip a house.

So yeah, they made a not shabby amount on the costs and interests of those loans...

... and $48M "teaching" people to get rich by flipping homes.
He's been very explicit that it's not the shoes :)

Kind of cool. UX not as smooth as p2p file sharing with airdrop on Apple devices, but it works well enough.

I couldn’t get the “local network” feature to work though despite devices on both networks. Probably missing something. Had to send the link to myself.
Thanks for the link. Looking through the Github, this appears to be close to what I'm looking for on my own project. Namely, being able to share files automatically with nearby devices when they move within range.

I thought Bluetooth might be viable, as beacons and GattServers seem to be designed for this purpose. Android's implementation was painful, yet doable. However, after wading into Microsoft's codebase, I suspect it will be slog.

Question: With an agreed upon network name or configuration, and agreed upon access parameters, how much change do you think it would take for FlyingCarpet to instead by used as a semi-anonymous, dynamic membership mesh network?

Ex: A laptop and a phone get near each other, they recognize their proximity, and that they are both offering the known network, they then check for the presence of known filetypes in a known folder location, and exchange small updates with each other. The same with any number of desktops, laptops, or phones that get near each other. If I was in a mall with 11 other similarly configured phones nearby, and 5 people working on laptops, then my phone would call the 16 other devices, and they would each get a file from my phone, and I would get a file from their phones.
Personal theory (being a Millennial that likes it): The walls shouldn't draw attention and this is a great way to do it, giving more focus to what's actually in the room. First image does this well.

But then that second one is just bad. Like product makers don't understand the goal, thinking we actively like the color instead of de-emphasizing the walls, and we're stuck with it.
Kobe Bryant came close for a while, but I can't think of somebody who just held onto it like that.
Yeah! I'm not praising Apple here! Maybe they refuse to let non-Apple devices interoperate, and it's their fault. I'm just saying that the rest of the world absolutely has not got it together.
Cozo is very attractive. I just wish there was a native Rust DSL API for it, so it could be embedded in Rust programs without using datalog queries in strings.
Big names in shipping (shipbuilders, shipping, big customers) have already committed to efuels like green methanol.

The ships are rolling off the production line now, the big task is a massive (massive!) ramp up of production of fuels to fill them.

Carbon and other pollution fees are part of the solution to kick the market off, but again they're already in place (and would help nuclear powered ships equally)

Currencies are shared across PC and mobile, but some games have restrictions on how you can obtain it:

* In Genshin Impact: if your account was first played / created on mobile, you can only purchase currency on mobile (either platform). Clicking the same button on PC throws an error saying you can only do this on mobile. Other way around (first played on PC) results in an account that can buy currency on all platforms.

* In Hearthstone: There doesn't appear to be a platform limitation for buying in-game packs or stuff; pricing may be different due to regional currency reasons but you can buy on either platform freely. (e.g.: Blizzard's PC marketplace has a handful of currencies but iOS has tens of them with different template prices)

The developer for Genshin is frequently featured by Apple and even has some iOS-exclusive features (e.g.: 120Hz/120FPS is iOS-only), so I assume this was a sort-of privately-negotiated revenue sharing situation.
How is that gonna work for my non-tech friend's phone and my other non-tech friend's laptop?
I don't know if we need any more military scope creep. The military already has to deal with Russia v. Ukraine, Israel v. Gaza, pirates blowing up ships in the Suez canal, North Korea rattling its sabers, and an almost-inevitable invasion of Taiwan.
Those are evangelicals. It goes back to the problem of Protestantism’s sola scriptura philosophy, rejecting 1500 years of theological inquiry and study - something that didn’t happen with Orthodoxy or Catholicism.

The suggestion is that electricity from PV could be so cheap that generating fuels with electricity could be cheaper, even with the massive inefficiency of it.

It won't be hydrogen, because hydrogen is volumetrically not dense enough, it would likely be something like methanol or methane or maybe, with the right tech breakthrough, longer chains of carbon.

You definitely don't want a nuclear plant generating this, because nuclear is way too expensive. Today, right now, solar energy stored in batteries is cheaper than new nuclear. And every year that price falls further. And most of the energy would never even have to be stored in batteries, and PV is cheaper than operating already-paid-for natural gas generators in most markets right now, (and getting cheaper).

The energy world is being disrupted, but the incumbents aren't paying attention, and most of the US media is devoted to covering it up and discrediting cheaper energy, to benefit incumbent fossil fuel energy companies, the ones buying lots of advertisements.
Panels on modern RVs are common, but RVs have a lot less weight and aerodynamics concerns.
It definitely seems to matter on an almost jewelry-level to some people, footwear.

Even if I doubt they spend more time intentionally looking at other people's shoes day to day, but I guess "louder" designs may change that a bit.
My favorite quote from the linked article, Table 1 Row 1:

> Gaming was associated with poorer self-reported hearing. Use of hearing protection is uncommon (<5%) among gamers.

The study quoted by the featured study is very reasonable in finding this given its context, but I think it's a little ridiculous the featured study suggested that gamers might use hearing protection as opposed to turning the sound down.

In any case, this is interesting to see. I never turn my volume up past about 20% because it becomes physically painful at that point, but I thought maybe some people might have insensitive hardware that needs higher power to create reasonable audio? Are folks just leaving their volume on the default 50% or 100% or whatever it is?
i have to disagree, there was a point between like 2013-2021 where every jordan 1 ,4 and certain 11 & 3's would resale for an arm & a leg. Attempting to get a pair for retail was a nightmare from long queues to sneaker bots making it humanly impossible to pick up a pair

now its possible to get most jordans close to retail price in the resale market or pick them up at retail as demands for most jordans is gone, unless its some crazy collab

Good links, thank you!
Sorry but this drug really sounds like straight from Margaret Atwood's "Oryx and Crake" dystopia. It has already arrived here, and physicians are eager to offer it (medical insurance covers it from BMI>30 onwards).
Long-term "patient relationships", I guess. The physician I went to until recently always employs 10-20 different doctors, most of them straight from university. And the truth is, they do a terribly bad job at treating diseases like Influenza, diabetes, or generally advising people with common health conditions.

I might be wrong, because obesity really is a terrible lethal health problem, from a certain level upwards it's straight up similar to hard drug addiction (e.g. crack).

But if this is the solution.. oh my.

How about offering people rewarding opportunities for exercise that don't cost a fortune (if you live in a traffic-ridden district, who wants to "go for a walk" really?)

How about educating people more vigorously about food addiction?

No fret towards anyone who feels these drugs help them, but for me, it just reminds me how glad I am to have come off SSRIs. The pharmaceutical industry never had any kind of "don't be evil" facade, and they act like it.
It's neither easy nor will it get easier.

Yes, even designed skiboxes or rails add drag. This doesn't seem even well designed.

And I wonder about long term safety too. Is it sturdy enough over time so at some point someone driving behind does not get hit by a panel flying off...

The only relevant question is if they track you in any different way than Facebook tracks you in incognito mode, that is, if the browser gives Google more information than Facebook could get.

If not, then all is ok. Else they are higly misleading and possibly invading your privacy in an illegal way.

I mean that was claimed by Huawei to be a completely new OS and was exposed to be just an android skin and nothing more: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/02/harmonyos-hands-on-h...

I mean, perhaps this time it is true. But they don't have a great track record in this regard.

Also, how do they manage the app gap? Or is it still compatible with android and then, how do they manage this without a ton of translation layers?
Such is the power of Nike's brand!!
The average charge of 20-75 miles per day is more than average miles driven per day*. The large battery pack means you can load balance between days and you mostly only care about the average. Given normal driving habits not only do they produce more energy than it takes to carry them around, they produce so much energy that you would practically never have to charge the car at all.

(It should be obvious that these numbers depend on where you are though, e.g. north of the arctic circle in winter they will almost certainly hurt more than they help)

Cybertruck fan here, I wouldn't describe it as either ugly or beautiful. It is bold and different, and utterly unlike anything else out there, much the same way modern architecture was 70 years ago and modern art 100+ years ago. I find this very appealing.
Two or three words - your examples - I can agree with.

But it stretches credulity when you start applying that to phrases like "the gaudy harlequinade of youth much in evidence", "The man settled behind the rifle. He felt the tension in the trigger, found his stockweld and slid up to the eyepiece, staring into it and seeing the ridge and the trees and the vegetation through the mil-dot-rich reticle.", or "the misty slopes of the massif of the Montagne de Charbon stretched above the treeline".
They're both great. Get Lamp also has an Infocom-specific cut and BBS really captures a lot of interviews with often pre-Web creators and other information that would otherwise be pretty obscure at this point. BBSs were sort of a niche at the time and, while there are a couple memoir-type things (and the textfiles archive of course) there aren't a lot of authoritative sources for the history especially if you don't have a lot of context to make sense of what is out there.
Memory efficient, it says. So I guess they got rid of 1/3 of the fields from task_struct? Amazing.
I think music is the perfect solution.
Oil is naturally occurring and just because it exists doesn't mean we need to burn every component of it, releasing it into the atmosphere.

Bunker fuel could hypothetically be re-injected into depleted reservoirs, much like brine water which is a useless byproduct of production. This would increase production costs of other components but at the benefit of the world's climate.
> Now this dude is nostalgic for them?

No, they really were better for sleep.

With the orange-ish sodium lights, I could go to sleep with their light still coming through the bedroom window. The amber glow was reminiscent of the glow of fire.

The harsh blue light now tells my brain it's daytime. I had to buy blackout curtains to be able to fall asleep.

It's the same principle as using the amber-hued Night Mode on your phone in the evening.

I never experienced the pinkish-white, but the transition from orange to blue has been horrible for sleep. Nighttime lighting around homes should be amber, not blue. (Contrast with highways where you do want people to stay awake, so blue makes sense.)

These have swung my Zuck opinion pendulum back to center
While all those design strategies are indeed valid, and adaptable dynamic quorum sizes, have the potential to manage certain trade-offs, the practical implementation of such systems presents such a challenges, due to the inherent complexities of distributed systems that...Tackling these complexities with those strategies should be approached with a degree of humility.

Overheads and latency issues in node replacement, particularly under conditions of unexpected high load or network difficulties, compound these challenges. These issues often manifest in correlated failures, which are more common than isolated node failures.

In this landscape we are still in compromise and trade-offs territory. I would refer to these two papers as insightful demonstrations of these challenges:

"Consistency vs. Availability in Distributed Real-Time Systems" - https://ar5iv.labs.arxiv.org/html/2301.08906v1

Does anyone know how this demand is being tackled?

I’m guessing it could be many many years until it’s widely available unless there’s some incredibly huge effort to make enough.
