The ugly truth is that most plastics aren't really recyclable, especially not in the form of "big glob of mixed mystery-polymers with a dash of food residue and other organics". What usually happens is it's either downcycled into a significantly lower-grade material, or depolymerized and turned into fuel.

PET recycling is the one exception, where you can relatively reliably get reasonable (but lower) quality plastics back out of the process.
Working with these criteria sounds a bit like the experience of working with some outsourcing firms. This can work, but there’s a big upfront burden on whatever PM interfaces with the person/people who work this way.

I’m curious if you have seen how the companies you work for handle any of the following problems I’ve seen come with this working style:

- PM breaks down tasks with such granularity that it’s like they’re programming the people doing the work. They learn a programming language through a bootcamp and start doing some tickets themselves, and now you have a key product person who is likely to leave for a developer job.

- PM gets burnt out from dealing with behavior that would be considered extremely impolite on a regular basis.

- No PM you have or could hire is capable of breaking down tasks in a way they will get worked on or responded to, at which point you have to find another dev/firm.
> You could still see it by manipulating the DOM or using XML, but apart from a couple of experts nobody knew.

Except for all the users who were frustrated by the change. Most users wouldn’t even know who to report this to, even if they noticed it at all. They may chalk up the issue to the new computer or phone they purchased in the last two decades.

I signed up for the pro plan when it was announced even though I don’t use IFTTT much as a way to lock in the lower price. Now I’ll be cancelling.
You're not supposed to say the quiet part out loud. Suggesting that we should rely on a for-profit corporation to "save us" from democratically-elected officials is such an extreme idea I'm surprised it's being voiced so openly.

I say this as someone who strongly opposed any kind of mandatory apps.
Yes, totally! That's a great input, thanks!
Not sure that follows. Is there an underlying assumption that better material conditions == move to the right, all else being equal?

(Not criticising, trying to tease out your meaning).

BTW, in the conversation below I think y'all are talking about the Overton Window without actually mentioning it.
If you want an easy system to give to something with little/no experience with computers, these days to me is better to install to them something easy like Ubuntu or Fedora, or Zorin OS if they are familiar with the Windows UI, and they probably wouldn't event notice the difference.

And you get: no crap with Microsoft accounts, no viruses (yes, they still exists!), no automatic updates to major versions that break everything, no unwanted data collection to Microsoft, no computer that slows down without any reason after some years of usage.

If a person has to only use a PC for internet, documents, emails, etc and doesn't require any Windows specific software, there is no reason to use Windows. When people asks me to fix they computer because they got a virus or the computer simply did become so slow to be unusable or it updated automatically to the next major version and nothing works I offer the Linux option, and to this day everyone was happy about it (against my interest, since then they no longer call me to fix their problems, it would be better to put Windows and have them come to me and pay me 50$ to format their crap every 2 years).
As a small tip, I have found that the [src] links in the documentation that go to the source to be very useful. Zig prioritizes readability, and often I can find the answer quickly when the documentation is lacking.

That said, yeah it's not great. This talk gave some good reasons for doing things in the order they are. Spec and documentation are best done after the target has stopped moving, and it's simply going to be awhile until that happens.
Presumably star positions in nighttime photographs could be used to determine location/time. Not very precisely but it could be enough to say the picture definitely wasn't taken at time/place that is claimed.

Edit: or even simpler, moon phases:

"Here is a photo of my client on the night of the murder so they have alibi"

"There was a new moon on the night in question but the photo shows a full moon"
There is however no reason to imagine you can get similar optimizations yet go much faster.

Some of the optimization problems are just plain hard, indeed the optimal choices are often Undecidable for non-trivial cases, so LLVM is already trading time for better results. I have other reasons not to like LLVM, but I don't like the habit of blaming LLVM for how slow your compiler is, and Zig isn't alone in doing that.

The segue into optimisation was Andrew noting that there are too many bugs. I haven't seen Andrew speak often before, so maybe it was a joke I didn't get, but the impression I got reminded me of Herb Sutter's introduction of Cpp2 / CppFront his "New syntax" (a C++ successor language by another name). Herb gives genuine complaints people have about C++ but rather than explain why his proposal would fix them (it wouldn't) he just decides they're wrong and rewrites them, then explains how his proposal fixes these made up complaints instead. So instead of "It's much too unsafe" Herb decides the "real" problem is that it's not easy enough to write - see if it was easier you wouldn't have bugs right? An audience members even calls him out for that, but Herb is undeterred.

Like I said, maybe it's just a joke and I didn't get it. But if Andrew seriously thinks that: Zig has too many bugs => Make compiler faster makes any sense that's a problem.
As a layman putting zero effort into looking at this law, is there no validity in the reasoning that letting commercial interests sell any kinds of seeds can lead to crises with invasive species everywhere? I mean more than what already happens.
Ah, that's the exception to my "generally" comment. That "/CFM /AESV2" means AES-128, instead of the much weaker RC4...which would be if you saw "/CFM /V2".

So you're left with brute force or dictionary attacks for your 10 char A-Za-z0-9 password.

It is a viable business model. Look at the cure for hepatitis C. It was the highest selling drug ever before Ozempic came along.
> Completely guessing, but the thought comes to mind that Rust was (still is? I don't keep up these days) portrayed as The C Killer. So to specify "written in Rust" was to imply "I wrote something low-level without C/C++" or "I rewrote Popular C Tool in Rust" in the name of memory safety.

As the OP, this is a big part of it. Rust might be a great language, but people announcing they rewrote grep (for example) in rust doesn't mean they've done anything special. The rust language team did something special. The person making the announcement just took somebody else's idea and reimplemented it for very little reason.

Great! You learnt enough to reinvent the wheel. Now do something useful.

If you’ve set up x.local in your DNS for your dryer but your laptop uses mDNS, it’s possible that your lapatop’s mDNS will get a response from your microwave that it’s reachable at x.local. The solution (not an expert, please check this) is to set up the dryer in DNS as x.domain-thar-you-own or x.home.arpa
<< Israel has no choice other than to deal with Hamas as they are.

Maybe. Recent drone strike in Lebanon suggests that Israel is rather capable to strike surgically if it is so desires. In Gaza, it does not appear to strike surgically suggesting it made that choice for a reason.

There is always a choice and few would fault just plain self-defense. Based on the existing rubble, current situation is closer to overkill, which does not win Israel support.

Something to consider.
HIBP even is basically tip of the iceberg in terms of how much data is floating around - Troy and his team only get the ones that are publicly leaked, or privately shared with them.

They also have historically had a backlog of data to process - leaked databases can be a pain to parse and turn into something usable.
They didn't say it did. They said they use a - blocked - VPN because of man in the middle antics by Xfinity.
How it works in the UK at the moment is there are particular times when the grid knows it is going to be under severe load. Typically it gives about 6 hours warning. Consumers can then charge up their batteries from the grid and reduce load/force discharge during a (usually) 1 or 2 hour slot. It's designed to reduce the need to crank up old coal-fire power stations. I realise this a bit different to the every day duck-curve, but interesting nonetheless
I have been using this for years with my cloud provider and this is a rock solid application. My only wish is that the logging could have a sweet spot in the middle where it is not verbose but does show the names of the files changed
Exactly - "heavy" frontend frameworks are like adding another project. It's not that there aren't plenty of situations where that is perfectly fine, but if all you need to do is adding a few client-side effects, I'd suggest using something more light-weight.

After reading through the threads, I still think that '.lan' is a better non-reserved suffix to use for this than '.internal'; however, my opinion rarely has significant weight in the grand scheme of things.

That's a good list of reasons, however it seems the biggest concern is if you run a dedicated DNS service on your network.

For a simple home network setup, as long as naming conflicts can be managed, it looks like mDNS is quite handy.

On a side note, I find .local to be best suited for the purpose, since from the language perspective it's easier on international users than .localhost

The newly proposed .internal comes close, but .local still looks more semantically flexible or maybe this is a cognitive bias of mine.

In my EU country the typical power limit per circuit is 16 A * 230 V = 3680 W. I imagine that similar limits exist in other EU countries.
For me the problem is that iOS already adds horizontal rules between all select options, so the new feature doesn't make any sense there, and I can't share code between Mac and iOS.

I think of it with this kind of analogy: the original image is stored with 32 bit color scheme. You can reduce the color scheme to 16 bit accuracy and still figure out pretty well what the image is about. 2 bit is stretching this to a bit far, basically either pixel is white or it is black, but even if you lose lots of nuances in the image, in many images even that gives you some idea whats going on in the image.
Who are you to say that I cannot speak passionately? Who are you to expect "better" of me? If you do not like something, you are free to ignore it. If you cannot respond to something level-headedly, then don't. It's not my responsibility to present my opinions in a way you find pleasing.

Wait. Why would you need, or want, an app for that? I'd automatically assume that any such app is a scam. These kinds of things are not what apps do, it's out of scope on restricted mobile OS.

I think GP is trying to coin a term for stealth marketing Hacker News comments, except the analogy doesn't really make sense.
As others here have noted, the challenge with paying salespeople to close the deal is that you create perverse incentives. In enterprise software sales, the salesperson has every incentive to make impossible-to-keep promises about what the software can do. After closing the deal, the salesperson hands over to an implementation team, who try and fail to make the software do what the salesperson promised it would. The result is a failed implementation and an unhappy customer. I have often thought it would make sense to pay salespeople for a successful implementation of software, not just for the initial sale. I’ve never seen that done though. Would be curious to hear if anyone has successfully dealt with this challenge.
oh. its worse. the original request for the TLD was only granted because in the application Google specifically mentioned that it should be reserved due to its unofficial use by developers and that if anyone else got it then they might put real domains on it.

You cant make it up.
Not the person you’re replying to but CleanShotX [0] is my favorite tool for this. Yes macOS has improved their screenshot annotation tools but they suck compared to CleanShotX. I take way more screenshots now to covey information and it’s invaluable to quickly explain a UI. I make guides for work or my clients with it all the time. I use it to highlight the button they need to click, label “1”, “2”, “3”, for the order of operations, pixelate data that isn’t important or I want to hide, and more.

Yes I could open the screenshot in a photo editor or similar but it’s so quick to do in CleanShotX that in literally less than 5 seconds I can: take a screenshot, highlight what I’m talking about, and have the image sent off to my coworker. Being so fast it reduces the friction to 0. I highly recommend it.

Cybersecurity is a large set of security concerns and password strength is only one of them. This is mostly a solved problem and a minor consideration when store the passwords correctly on the backend (https://cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/cheatsheets/Password_Stor..., have reasonable password restrictions (16 characters, no complexity, changes once or twice a year "just in case"), ideally a basic checker when people set their passwords (against a leaked passwords db such as rockyou) and correct identity management (especially disabling an account when the user leaves).

There is really nothing exciting in that part of cybersecurity and with the above in place you are safe and can move towards the real risks. Online password cracking does not matter in practical terms and for offline one you have other problems to urgently address.

What are these risks depends on who you are but if you address aggressive, stubborn and coercive patching + development security (if you develop) + enthusiastic awareness you are ahead of 99% of the world already.

Add to this some endpoint protection and monitoring of the events and, man, you are a company I can trust my HN rep.

FWIW, my spouse works in rehab hospital settings and says tub accessibility is a big problem with lots of the much older and more modern freestanding tubs. Relatively thin, high sides are an injury risk for a lot of people. It's one reason many tubs are shorter and have wide flat sides.

I was furious when this directive was implemented in UK law. The only plant/seed varieties that could be traded were those on an official list, whose contents would inevitably be dominated by a few huge companies.

I don't know how the directive came about, but it smells like heavy commercial lobbying.

The UK government has been too busy campaigning against itself since Brexit, to reverse the UK implementation. It's high time.
I expect it refers to the proportion, weighted by filesize, of programs that are byte-for-byte reproducible across machines. (The assumption being that to take the same measurement in a dynamically-linked context would result in a number less than 100% due to machines having different copies of some libs.) In other contexts, it might simply be a proportion of whole packages, for example Arch Linux' core package set is 96.6% reproducible[1] (=256/(256+9)).

The Linux kernel's lack of a stable ABI (specifically [2]; many userspace APIs are stabilised) doesn't mean individual revisions can't be built reproducibly.

HAMAS pragmatism serves one purpose, the destruction of Israel, as outlined in their charter.

In 2017 they updated their charter to recognize the 1967 border but still not recognize Israel ( apparently anyone can be on other side of the fence except Israel). And lest you harbor any normalization fantasy, they kept up the aggression by fire rocket into Israel from time to time, which finally accumulated in the 10/7 attack.
Absolutely. We're getting closer, but it's hard to measure what actually supports it as bettertls (the caniuse equivalent in this space) doesn't track it.

"The issue of reversibility in hydromechanical sprinklers that auto-rotate while ejecting fluid from S-shaped tubes raises fundamental questions that remain unresolved" - I thought that was resolved already, by the fact in one case the fluid is expelled outside of the sprinkler and doesn't interact with it, whereas in suction the fluid "bumps" into to curve of the sprinkler and cancels most of the pull of the suction.

This looks somehow like my app ClipMemo. The difference is that my app require you to create cards (called Memo in the app) by yourself. You select the start & end timestamp and you can review, repeat the clip. Besides YouTube it supports local video or other platform like Bilibili, China's counterpart of YouTube.

The alternatives to the chemical substances used by life on Earth have been examined by many, without finding any alternative that has a high probability.

It is likely that there may be other forms of life that use quite different organic molecules than the amino-acids and nucleic acids used on Earth, but it is very unlikely that they use substances made from other chemical elements than those used on Earth.

Not only the chemical elements used on Earth are precisely those which are the most abundant in the Universe, but they also have properties for which there are no alternative chemical elements. So it is likely that the bulk of any form of life is made of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur, the 5 most abundant electronegative elements (which are also the constituents of the proteins; the least abundant of these 5, sulfur, is more abundant in the Universe than all the elements heavier than iron summed together). Electronegativity is necessary for the covalent bonds that bind atoms into molecules, while the substances based on ionic or metallic bonds cannot have alone a complex enough structure for evolving into a life form (because they form large homogeneous crystals instead of separate molecules with arbitrary structure).

A few days ago there was a posting on HN about a research paper that compared the alternatives to water as a biological solvent.

While no alternative to water is so ubiquitous in the Universe, the conclusion was that there might be some less usual conditions on some planets without water where an alternative to water could be used, the most likely alternatives being sulfuric acid or carbon dioxide at high pressures.

About elements heavier than calcium, a few of those are necessary for any kind of life to provide catalysts for the chemical reactions that can build complex molecules from the simple substances available in the environment.

For the appearance of life on Earth, at least iron, cobalt and nickel have been necessary from the beginning. These 3 metals could be sufficient in an environment where elemental hydrogen, carbon monoxide and ammonia would exist.

In most environments there is much less carbon monoxide than carbon dioxide and much less ammonia than elemental nitrogen. To enable the use of carbon dioxide and of elemental nitrogen, on Earth either molybdenum or tungsten has been necessary in the beginning, though perhaps in other conditions life could have evolved based on some catalyst using lighter elements, e.g. vanadium or even iron, which could have allowed the appearance of life on a planet with much less matter provided by supernova explosions (which generate most of the elements heavier than zinc) than in the Solar System.
