That's also very misleading because the vast majority of the corn we feed cows isn't fed to them fresh. It's distillers grains, an industrial waste from ethanol production: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distillers_grains

I do really feel your frustration, but at the same time, the network and ease of use of gas refueling has just had so much more time to grow and become ingrained in society. You likely learned how to refuel a car before you could drive. There's been almost a century of gas station franchising and growth and regulations and laws written around them.

All that is shrunk enormously for electric fueling. So yeah it's gonna be inconvenient. I don't see how they can fast forward so many decades, but yeah they def could improve things.

I believe that means you're in agreement with the author. The point of the tweet is to counter a claim that low fertility in cities is caused by high prices; if large families leave cities for extra space then they're not doing so because of price.

i suspect one factor is that music is a lot cheaper to produce than movies, so selling music at an "accessible" price is a lot more viable as a solution. plus, there's a larger market for music since music is largely consumed in isolation. people tend to listen to music themselves so they would either buy a copy for themselves, or stream for themselves, so there's the benefit of volume as well. on the other hand, movies are more likely to be consumed in groups - a group of people watching one movie will only pay once.

for the tv/movie industry, the best solution we have right now is basically streaming services like netflix. the issue is that its probably still not economically feasible for companies like netflix to pay for the streaming rights of new movies for their subscribers, especially those big budget movies. so for those, either you'd have to wait until the price is more palatable for netflix, or you'd have to just pirate it.

Logic doesn't really have a direction, it works backwards or forwards. Even if you're solving a system "backwards", whatever that means, you still have to satisfy all of the necessary AND and OR constraints for a solution to be valid, so you're effectively still building ADTs or records just using a different evaluation order.
Hertz Charged Member $277 for Not Filling Gas Tank on a Tesla, Won't Remove Fees
It will take something like 5,000 years for solar time to drift from TAI by more than an hour. Given that time zones change a few times a year in random parts of the world (for example, eastern Kazakhstan changed from UTC+6 to UTC+5 to unify with the rest of the country this year), adding another occasion to change them every few thousand years makes no meaningful difference.

Your example of getting so far off that we have to change _days_ would take several times longer than the distance between the invention of agriculture and now. Honestly, I would be extremely surprised if human civilization survives that long, but even if it does, our descendants can just deal with the problem then. There's no reason to make our lives more difficult _now_ just to deal with this very niche hypothetical scenario.

Progress is slow, but I've been maintaining the Rust version when I have time. The MVP of fuzzing network communications and disk access is fairly easy, but there is a long tail of very complicated behaviour I'd like to simulate.

Dan Luu's site [1] goes into a fair bit of detail on the disk side. I see no reason why you can't emulate a superset of the worst case behaviour, and have a great deal of confidence that you're using file access in a way that won't result in corruption.

Networks will have a similar long tail, e.g. asymmetric net splits.

The SQL version is a bit trickier, as the API is much wider. The abstraction I was working on was essentially that you get select, insert and update, and write anything more complicated yourself.

This works for replicating the skews and other phenomena described in DDIA [2], but it runs into the same core problem that you're simulating a model of your code, not your code itself. The best pathway for temporal fuzzing databases with production loads is probably at the network layer.

"New housing should be of a family-friendly type (something with a yard for kids to play in)"

Low density of other children nearby and inability for children to safely travel on their own is not family friendly. I agree that if we only build one and two bedroom apartments its going to discourage larger families, but there is no reason we can't build denser three or four bedroom housing.

Though honestly I think the entire premise of this article is flawed. Cost of housing is only one of many factors. Cost of having children is higher than ever before, which housing can play a factor in.

Apple also specifically avoids controversy often going out of their way to take non-positions, so to speak.

Yuval Harari makes an interesting point in one of his books: that many kinds of these inventions always start as a way to treat people with some kind of a medical condition and bring them into the "median" spectrum, but there's no stopping there and the same inventions are then used to bring "median" people into the "super-human" spectrum.

What happens next is that the "regular" humans have to compete with these "super-humans", for example on a job market, or in Olympics.

The most obvious comparison is in syntax. Easier syntax means less user time spent. In Symbolica, an example from the documentation

from symbolica import Expression
x = Expression.var('x')
f = Expression.fun('f')
e = x + f(x) + 5
e = e.replace_all(x, 6)
print(e)

In Mathematica, the same thing is

e = x + f[x] + 5
e /. x -> 6

What I find striking is that, we know that Python is the most popular language because you don't have to declare your variables or your function headers, and can just start writing the logic of your computation. Then, people keep inventing these mathematics programs in Python, that need you to declare your variables before using them.
Here's a Go program and a C# program. Please explain your comment —

From a ecology standpoint, you're correct, it would be better for the species if birthrates flatten out.

However from an economics standpoint increasing numbers declining birthrates across the globe is disastrous.

Capitalism works by continually passing the buck to the next generation. In order to maintain our current economy we need an ever larger amount of cheap labor creating affordable products. The only two solutions to this are to have a high birth rate or to take advantage of another country's high birthrate through immigration.

Europe is seeing this as massive waves of immigration that many groups are uncomfortable with, but these immigrants are necessary to provide affordable labor in the face rapidly declining birthrates. But this economic salvation comes at a the cost of local culture. American's pride themselves on being a "melting pot" but not all European nations feel the same.

The US has long relied on immigration for this, but if you look immigration has been flattening out [0] and the impact can be felt in the US. Labor based services are getting harder and harder to get and companies that require labor intensive industries like lumber are experiencing shutdowns because they cannot find enough affordable labor [1].

Again, from a purely ecological/sustainability standpoint this is good: reduced production means reduced consumption, much better for the planet. But this also translates to reduced quality of life. As this trend continues people will continue to find it harder and harder to get goods and services that require human labor.

Show HN: User Targeting Without Data Collection: New SDK / Privacy Architecture
Hi HN!

I’ve built a mobile SDK with new user targeting architecture that improves user privacy, while also giving developers more precision and criteria to target users. I know that sounds super unintuitive, but by inverting standard user targeting architecture becomes possible. The SDK is live on Github, and we have full docs to try it out (links below).

Here’s the high level idea of how it works (more detail in in blog post linked below):

Zero data collection: the data flow is unidirectional from server to client. The client never needs to send information to the server for targeting

Powerful on-device logic engine: you can write targeting logic with conditional strings using powerful but familiar syntax. It supports logical operators, functions, arithmetic, set operations, dates, random number generation, database queries, and more! This runs completely locally on each user’s device.

Rich build-in targeting properties: 100 properties you can query, covering device information, user context, sensors, location, permissions, connectivity, peripherals, locale, app info, and much more.

Local event database: each client builds a rich database of user engagement history (app launches, session times, terminations, and user actions, custom events, etc). You can query this and target users, without streaming interaction data to any server.

Local database for property history: allows you to see if the current state is exceptional or the norm for this user.

Logic isn’t hardcoded: you can still update your logic over the air anytime, without app updates. You simply push new logic to clients instead of updating server-side logic.

Since everything is local and data never leaves device, we can offer more precise targeting criteria, without the additional scaling complexity, privacy concerns, costs, or legal concerns that come with server-side data collection of contextual data. We can do all this without IDFA or device fingerprinting.

> It is irrelevant until it is not: just ask Julius Caesar and Pope Gregory XIII.

You're refferring to needing to reform the entire calendar but this doesn't make sense in context of me explaining that the calendar itself never needs to be reformed in the first place. That the sun was a few degrees different in the sky for Julius Caesar when a modern clock reads 3 PM in his time is not inherently a problem as Julius Caesar wouldn't have the same norms as you do in terms of what wall time is acceptable for waking/sleeping/eating/working/etc. E.g. 20,000 years from now if a clock reads 3 AM during midday it' not a problem as society will have had 20,000 years to adjust 12 hours vs your referenced calendar reforms that changed everything overnight.

> The difference of an hour does make a difference, as sleep researchers and chronobiologists keep pointing out every time a discussion on DST comes up (it is not just about the sudden time jump, but also about the actual time):

Again, you're missing the forest through the trees - though in two different ways here. The first is that it's a minute over someone's (long) life, so what impact we feel when we change time by an hour twice a year isn't relevant. The second is that society, over 2,000 years, does not need to change timekeeping itself to wake up when the clock says 8 instead of 7. If the change were to happen over a short period then sure, it's not really feasible for society to move up what wall time their breakfast is four times a year or something, but an hour a millenia isn't even something society needs to consciously worry about.

My point is not that we don't have a biological clock, it's that the effect of leap seconds on a human's biological clock are too small to affect it. One of your sources already says it's 15-20 minutes misaligned a day, why are you using it to argue 1 additional minute for your entire life is impactful? On the long term societal scale my point is society won't always agree we should wake up when the wall clock says 7 am. That norm changing shifting ~an hour 2,000 years is not a relevant concern for changing the way we keep time.
> And no, adding a few vitamins doesn't restore the most of nutritional value. Especially when the removed things are fiber (for density) and essential oils (to prevent rancidity and extend shelf life).

I was mostly thinking about using protein isolate in cooking (TVP soy curls, ...), where you use it for the texture and maybe protein content.
You pair it with a lot of other stuff, let's say some stir-fried vegetables, a light sauce and rice.

Does soy protein isolate on the above have negative effects, or is it just that using less processed stuff, like tofu instead, would be healthier?
Sure, there are exceptions to every rule. Python is close enough to pseudocode that beginners can get familiar with the basic syntax easily.
Your goal was to rip off a good design. Copy/Paste.
A an ever larger proportion of a population is too old to do significant amounts of work, the smaller proportion of healthy able bodied younger people is forced to pick up the slack. This goes from teachers, to truckers, to plumbers and beyond.

This burden is made even worse as most developed countries have established pension systems that act as generational wealth transfers, where younger workers pay for the pensions of the elderly, in the hopes that the next generation of children will in turn pay for their parents' pensions.

It gets worse: that large mass of retired people now represent the main block of voters, making it very difficult to enact pension reforms that will reduce the amount of money they siphon from younger generations.

It is very easy to go from a sustainable stable population to a rapid population decline that is difficult to recover from.
Even when kids are put in school, they still spend a lot of time with their parents, and children do a lot of mimetic

Would genetics lead to some personality disorder that are common in a family, and would that lead to similar personalities? Or would some brain-related genes lead to some forms of personality tendencies?

I would also guess the definition of personality could be rejected by skeptics, since it's very difficult to define how we perceive or measure personality traits. It's scientific, but many would have no problem undermining some aspects of those definitions.
Have you tried color blindness glasses (e.g. EnChroma)? I am not familiar with them but some reaction videos were pretty heartwarming.

It had not ocurred to me that anyone would /knowingly/ hire a programmer who submitted code that fails even to compile, as per ChatGPT.

Anyone who would knowingly could well be delighted to use ChatGPT instead.
You can only switch a gene "on" once. So I'd like to see some examples.
