I'm sure you can find 'pro' studies, there are benefits, and of course there are 'con's, like heaving your guts out.

But to say the risk is 'vanishingly' small is the true 'anti-science' here. Are you anti-vax also? Measles is just a natural process?

""This review describes why pasteurization of milk was introduced more than 100 years ago, how pasteurization helped to reduce the incidence of illnesses associated with raw milk consumption, and the prevalence of pathogens in raw milk. In some studies, up to a third of all raw milk samples contained pathogens, even when sourced from clinically healthy animals or from milk that appeared to be of good quality.""

I think "cost" consists of two parts: financial and mental. The financial side is probably negligible, but the mental part could be larger.

But everyone has one's own needs so I fully understand your scenario.
You aren't paying attention to women's media if you think that's the case. Plenty of women's media discusses the difficulties in men's lives. And when they do, for instance talking about testicular cancer, they tend to stay away from, "ok but breast cancer is worse actually. "

We should all be comfortable lifting each other up, rather than focusing only on our own demographics. Otherwise those without power will suffer needlessly.
No, like shirk, an English word for the act of being intentionally derelict in one's duty, and derived so far as I know from middle German.
And for the record, a backwards-compatible-ish way was proposed in 1993 (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc1475), by using an option in the IPv4 packet header.

AFAIU it was "just" defining an option type; the IPv4 packet header itself didn't even need to be changed.

1993 was more than 30 years ago.

So people who wanted to keep it backwards-compatible with IPv4 already had a chance.

IMO the main issue are zoning laws and urbanization. You can find lots of articles about rural areas, small villages elsentially dieing out, while large cities just (try) to grow larger.

Also there is a shift from people living in families to living single or just with one person which is more inefficient and requires more space.
If you are going to that effort do a 220v with a 60amp, should cost almost the same but is typically the top of level 2 charging specs.
Is there anything similar that can be bought as a consumer, for example the Bluetooth one that they mention in the video ? This gave me a few ideas that could be fun at the kid's parties.

Seems something not hard to do with wireless-enabled microcontroller and leds, but I don't trust myself to do something safe in the hands of a kid.
I haven't really ran into this issue that much, we've had the same setup across Ubuntu 18.04, 20.04, 22.04 and the only thing that has broken across that was setup of wireless.
Being able to ask qualifying questions like that, or presenting options with different caveats clearly spelled out, is part of the job description IMO, at least for senior roles.

Great hack, like it so much, thank you! Out of curiosity: transcription and dizrization are very similar processes, the latter just adds "Speaker 1/2/3" to each paragraph. Why two different workflows?
I'm seeing all of these "AI in a box" experimental products, and none of them are "in a box".

The AI is always server-side. So the device is useless.

Whenever someone figures out how to package the GPU (or LPU, TPU, *PU) into a wearable or portable "box", that device will finally make sense.

... and it will most likely just be a smartphone.
A version control tool shouldn't take YEARS of usage to be productive, to me that's a red flag. Some engineering tools are just complex because what we're doing might need that flexability so the tools provide a myraid of options or workflows.

But writing software, tracking your changes, being able to back out your changes and getting your changes integrated into a code base should be as low activation energy as possible to be productive.

But again, git wasn't created for "you and me", it was created by one guy for his project, the fact "mere mortals" are using it is kind of our fault.
100% this. I think the reason we see these people homeless in the US is due to the myth of the self-sufficiency. That if you can't succeed or fit in it's because you are deficient in some way. It makes it hard to ask for help and it's doubly so if you are introverted to this extreme.
Why do you say that the US would lose an intervention in Mexico? As long as the goal is simply to remove the existing cartel system it doesn’t seem that hard. I don’t think the Mexican people would see it as an attack in the same way that people in various middle eastern or Asian countries saw US intervention as an attack on themselves. The cartels have enough support to stay in power but I feel like the people would abandon them if the US were to get involved directly.

But, I am not Mexican so I’m just speculating really.
Is there anything in the HTML spec that tells browsers to always show a cached version a page if it can't be loaded the next time you try to access it?

I think PWAs might have something like that, but haven't tested it in a normal browser or tried building one.
It's better to eat the "food waste", rather than create more waste in the first place.

If I have leftover rice, I'd rather refrigerate it and eat it tomorrow, instead of feed it to chickens.

Rabbits can not eat food waste, they have very sensitive digestions. Very few fish will eat food waste (mostly just tilapia will do so).

> feed bacteria and worm waste to plants

Plants do not eat bacteria. You can't just "feed" worm waste to plants, you would have to bury into the soil via plowing or some other method.

Bacteria also make CO2 by digesting food. The fertilizer they make is minerals and nitrogen.

You have a bit of a simplistic view of how this food cycle works.

> I was always taught that recycling was good, while pumping oil out of the ground and creating new CO2 is bad, but I'm no expert.

It's not so simple. Except for metal, recycling usually uses more oil than not recycling.
Show HN: Blue Noise – Interactive Explanation of Void and Cluster Algorithm
After reading about the generation of blue noise here on HN a few times my goal was to implement my own variant of the the Cluster and Void algorithm in the most straight-foward way possible, while also visualizing each step. (JavaScript is required in order to step through the algorithm)

Most other Blue Noise generator implementations are optimized for speed. Many explanations of the Cluster and Void algorithm I found online were overly complicated or focusing on details that do no help the initial understanding.

My implementation is optimized for readability and understanding.

I find it very inspiring see an algorithm broken down to its most essential steps.

For one in order to better understand the algorithm itself but also for transfering its key concepts to other tasks, for example when designing my own algorithms. Eg in my rather high level python/numpy implementation one can easily understand that the two phases of the algorithm (phase 2 and phase 3) have no data dependency between each other and can therefor be parallelized.

Additionally the numpy implementation demonstrates how the application of high level concepts like rank-polymorphism and convolution allow to express a sophisticated algorithm in only a few lines of code.

Hope you like it.
I think the point is that if it fits on a single drive, you can still get away with a much simpler solution (like a traditional SQL database) than any kind of "big data" stack.
I find it a bit strange that the article (and also a lot of the discussion here) does not discuss the size of these houses (in square meters per person), or alternatively the distribution of the sizes/areas.

I grew up in a 20 square meter per person apartment (with multiple person living there, for a total size of 60 square meters) - and it was definitely not pleasant. But I feel that nowadays people also expect a lot - for example in The Netherlands the reported average of 65 square meter per person https://longreads.cbs.nl/trends19-eng/economy/figures/constr....

Not discussing what it should be ideal, but if (some) people now want 2x or 3x what they wanted 40 years ago for example (without actually needing it due to a larger family), it's no wonder that there are issues (with prices/availability etc.).
And in every context onion is known to be a source of purely satirical content. This isn’t hard.

I made a very similar notepad tab. Only me and my girlfriend use it (since I don't market it or anything) but we've been using it constantly every day for about a year. I'm surprised it's not a default function of browsers to be honest - new tabs are such wasted space. Basically, every tab is the same document, it saves to the browser's cache locally so you don't lose anything when you close the browser. https://github.com/gth001/George-s-Notes-Tab-Extension

> Unless someone is forcing you to fly a particular airline

It's called "My company bought the tickets for me".

I live in NZ, had no experience with long haul travelling until my first flights into Germany, so I really had no idea it could differ from airline to airline that much. I assumed you'd get stuff like that on RyanAir etc. but never thought of Lufthansa as a budget airline.

And yeah, I learned about Seatguru _shortly afterwards_ which is why I _now_ know that Lufthansa really is the worst.

Appreciate you criticising me for not being omniscient about all things flying beforehand, it really contributes a lot.
one counterpoint is - probability of one startup sampled at random from an ensemble of achieving venture success is very low, but that’s because many of the samples were doomed (P=0) and some of them were very high. So the P(success) for a specific individual (i.e., me) is a function of me and not a function of the ensemble. Some entrepreneurs have a 100% hit rate! I think the goal is to be one of those.
If you leave in some mid EU country, chances are a lot of your current government's policies are based on "sticking it to the man".

The man used to be an upper-ish class dude (p96+), but due to how horribly slow and uneducated governments are at making data-driven decisions, the man is now a working or middle class dude.

As a result, you will see property prices skyrocket in your area while the government takes 50%+ of your 5% pay raise, leaving you only some pocket change richer than before. But the property owners in your area will be richer every year because their great grandad hunted a bunch of whales or some shit, and so called progressive policy makers are clueless about wealth distribution.
Yes, at one time it was estimated that roughly 1/3 of Vancouver’s condo supply was vacant. So the city implemented an empty homes tax [0] and promptly raised $115,000,000 in tax revenue [1].

However, the tax is still far too low and it contains various loopholes that allows developers to hold condos empty for years until deep-pocketed buyers show up [2].

Vancouver isn’t unique. Housing is being traded like poker chips everywhere, often but not always by ultra-wealthy foreign nationals with zero regard for the local consequences.

I enjoyed "From Nand to Tetris: Building a Modern Computer From First Principles"

HTML dictates how webpages should be structured and then rendered.

You're probably asking about HTTPS, in which case: No. The first rule about HTTPS is no caching, because you want to validate that what you see is from the server and you can't prove that with a cache.
Sometimes, I just have some view of a city, or whatever, look out, quietly scan the horizon and just muse "every tree I see was planted by someone". Someone said "here, there will be a tree" and it was so.

Small ones, big ones. They're just everywhere.

"See that park over there? Someone put every one of those trees in the ground."

Then, as a corollary, one day, a parking lot has several dozen trees. Next day, they're all gone. Week later, a bunch of new ones are back. Guess the old ones were just getting too big.

Friend recently had to take down a 100 year old tree. Was just getting potentially unsafe.

No doubt they'll stick another one in there, and leave it. It'll be there when they pass.
> His canonical example was "kosher food is acceptable to nearly everyone, and required by a small minority." Thus kosher takes over.

Which is a great example of how Taleb's "examples" are BS. Really, when Taleb goes into a grocery store, is all of the food kosher? Or even a majority? Kosher has not "taken over". It's a niche product.

> If there is surplus value it should stay in the enterprise and be used to improve the enterprise

Profit is surplus value. The opposite of waste. Forcing it back into the place it originated versus letting it transport to the most-useful thing it can do is how you get sclerotic feudalism. Had we adhered to this philosophy during the Industrial Revolution, we would have just kept farming.

I'm definitely not an expert but I think BYDs are popular in China and EU because of governmental policies (in China) and geographical reasons (both China and EU are more urban than North America, owning a detached house in China that is closer to good schools, hospitals and infras are unthinkable for most Chinese).

I live in Canada and I really can't see myself driving an EV right now. It doesn't guarantee my not-so-rare but crucial requests:

- Going to some random places for vacationing without worrying about whether there are enough charging stations;

- Going through early spring without adding anxiety about a power outage that sweeps for 2-7 days;

The infra is just not ready. And TBH, I don't think it's going to be ready forever. Infra construction is so corrupted and so expensive in NA that I absolutely have zero faith in it.

Actually, the push to more EVs in China is already a bit problematic due to lack of Infras. Just imagine you are in the middle of Spring festival traffic jam...it's already bad for gasoline cars but it's a nightmare for EVs.
No, thanks. Cloudflare acts ethically only until it suits them. It is the pre-exploitation phase to lure a customer. We are not fools here. The report at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40481808 says it all.

I don't think it necessarily means using it in production but rather using it on some non-trivial capacity that exposes you to it's various complexities and nuances such that you have more than just a surface level understanding. That probably coincides with using things in production a lot of the time, but that's not strictly necessary.
U.K. view here... and I'd guess this applies the the majority of the world too.

I was born in, grew up in and currently live in a location that the HN community never even thinks about. Most people in here have no idea of how the regular 99% live and then base their whole world view on expensive capital cities and hold the strangest views of housing.

I bought my current house in the 2010s, my mortgage is still half the price of renting and I could manage to pay for everything by myself even if I were on a minimum wage. The problem isn't anything to do with housing it's to do with your own warped view on the world.

I don't say this to be contrarian or to necessarily make a point. I want you to look up the minimum wage of your country and think about how literally everyone else happily lives without thinking twice about these things. You all live a massively privileged life yet these things concern you more than they should.
> There are tons of things in the human body that are very suboptimal or are purely accidental, from the tons of "junk" DNA, our difficult birthing, the appendicitis, wisdom teeth, the way our knees fold, differences in earwax, etc, etc.

Right, but evolution also can explain those; many of these are tradeoffs for things that do deliver benefits. Difficult, premature births are the cost of big brains, for instance.

> "Evolution" is just a (fairly tautological when you think about it) observation that "traits that manage to get passed on, subsist". It weeds out very bad traits, but the rest? It's just a giant lottery, not a great design with a teleological goal of "improving".

The tautological explanation is extremely powerful, because it means even a small variation that delivers a marginal but consistent advantage is going to be selected for. For instance, a person with dark skin can survive in Northern Europe, and a person with light skin can survive in sub-Saharan Africa, but the ideal skin tones for those regions that optimally trade off vitamin D production with protection against skin damage from the sun are probably pretty close to the ones typical to their indigenous populations.

The actual catch is that there’s a lot of path dependence and all changes are stepwise. You can’t just install a new trait or body part that’s been designed from scratch; it has to evolve from an earlier, similar thing. If you look at the bones of your hand, the bones of a bat’s wing, and the bones of the front paw of a dog, the bone structure is basically the same; it’s just by changing the proportions that you can get the structure of a flapping wing, a front foot, or a hand with an opposable thumb.
It's one of the interesting paradoxes of human life, I think - that the poorer have more incentive to have fun.

Arguments like this boil down to "I think you should accept just giving up something you want, for nothing in return." Which ordinary people quite rationally do not see as a deal they should accept.

You're confusing increases in household formation with increases in homebuying.

You can create a new household without buying a house. For example, if you live with your parents as a 22yo, you and your parents count as one household. If you then move out and into an apartment by yourself, you are now your own household. But you haven't bought a house. As millennials age, more of them will obviously move out from living with their parents, which means increasing household formation.

In addition, you can expect homebuying to increase within a generation as that generation matures and earns more money. Of course millennials will be buying more houses when they're in their 30s than when they were in their 20s. That's to be expected. Something would be seriously wrong if that were not the case. But this doesn't automatically mean that housing is not expensive.

You heavily edited your comment. The stats you are referencing do not say what you think they say, they are not a force for increasing prices. There are already houses that were previously built, they do exist.

Not sure why you would pretend otherwise?

Crazy how 2006 this pitch is. (Together with the “you are highly likely to eventually get your money back with a house.” Maybe we need a housing recession, both so people can buy in and others reminded there is no free lunch.)
