> "Potato chips are made through processes like frying, adding artificial flavorings, colorings, and preservatives. They are designed to be convenient and hyper-palatable, fitting the definition of ultra-processed foods."

Lays Potato chips are made up of only Potatoes, Oil, and Salt.

Its as simple as you're going to get. I get that you're trying to make "Ultraprocessed" actually encapsulate "unhealthy foods", but there's no colorings here.

Its just carbs, oil, and salt. Of which many Breads have a similar set of ingredients. Your typical Pesto or other "healthy and organic" dips have more processing than Lay's Potato Chips.

That's the thing. I know that Ultraprocessed is just a word tossed around with no definition. Its just everything "wrong" with today's food that rallies up a crowd, but no one has ever actually defined "Ultraprocessed" in a way that matches what normal people understand as "healthy" vs "unhealthy".

In any case, I'm actually for things like increased soda-taxes and other penalties to provably unhealthy foods. But we need to get the definition correct, and "Ultraprocessed" is such a bad baseline for discussion.
> For example, why didn't the US go Nazi after the Great Depression?

It flirted with it, as did most of Europe. Some nations shook out as fascist, some saw communist revolution, and some (barely) maintained the liberal capitalist democracies and republics while applying extensive socialist reforms like the New Deal. Whether the differing outcomes of that period were incidental or preordained is debatable.

After WWII, fascism and explicit expansionism largely fell out of favor as viable ideology, and we saw the bipolar heel-digging and soft/proxy power competition of the Cold War.

Then, after the collapse of the USSR, we had one surviving ideological framework dominating world-scale politics and it (inevitably) did not deliver enough equity and prosperity for people to accept that it was good enough.

So, like 100 years earlier, people are again looking around at other options.

There's no precedent to suggest that any one form of governance or economy can indefinitely keep all people settled and secure. Every one promises some kind of utopia, but all do so only speculatively.

If you simply want to ground statements in statements, you quickly get into GOFAI territory where you need to build up the full semantics of a sentence (in all supported languages) in order to prove that two sentences mean the same or have the same denotation or that one entails the other.

Otherwise, how do you prove the grounding isn't "hallucinated"?
Sure, but in the US, many many many more people have a state-issued ID than a federal one (a passport).

If a company needs to implement age verification, they're not going to limit their market to the set of US citizens with passports if the federal government were to offer an ID (passport) verification service. They're going to want state-run ID verification services, or, as in the case here, a private company contracted to do it for all ID types.

Then again, if the federal government (or my state government, even) offered an ID verification service directly, I would be more likely to use a product that offered it as an option, vs. one that only offered some private company's shoddy ID verification service.

But this feels vaguely analogous to the municipal broadband fights. Private ID verification companies would certainly lobby against states or the feds building their own ID verification services.

> But an executive at the company “provided investigative information and gave an analysis of factual information previously released”, the NTSB said. Both actions are banned under Boeing’s agreement with the agency, signed at the start of the Alaska investigation.

> The NTSB said Boeing had painted the agency’s investigation “as a search to locate the individual responsible for the door plug work” during the briefing. This is not the case, it clarified: “The NTSB is instead focused on the probable cause of the accident, not placing blame on any individual or assessing liability.

Then I guess you're being willfully ignorant. I'm not sure what's unclear about this?

Boeing isn't allowed, per a signed and legally binding agreement, not to share any information from the investigation. They also aren't allowed to speculate on causes. They did both of these things. The things you state as arguments are irrelevant.
Yes it does. It also good for the people with allergies as they can confidently buy that bread.

When FDA declares a new allergen, the top lawyer of the company that has presence from NY to SF seats down with the CEO, they then ask all the manufacturing units to do an audit of the said allergen use and then hire a third party auditor to verify if the allergen is used at all not just at their retail locations but in the entire supply chain. This involves the place where wheat is harvested to the restaurant where the bread is served. For a large company this is a millions of dollars and several quarters of project.

The lawyer and CEO needs to chalk out the plan. If they want to make sure their bread does not contain the said allergen they have to update all their processes right from where they buy their wheat to where they test their bread for the said allergen and retrain their staff, suppliers, QA etc. this adds millions of dollars in additional expenses per year.

Not only all this is complex that makes the bread expensive for EVERYONE, it is also much more prone to error.

It is much easier for your small local company to provide sesame free bread at slightly higher price to those who need it. You wont get it in the middle of death valley but that is fine.

A historical site like Monticello needs to be preserved in place, but when it comes to museum collections, a lot of times it's just as well for stuff to end up in private collections. Collectors tend to care (sometimes to an obsessive degree) about whatever it is they collect; it's not just a job for them, nor do they get possessed by weird ulterior motives the way foundations can be.

I run it for the base system, and then use gnu Guix for the rest. I don't have time to deal with a system that changes under my feet. Being able to rollback both the base system and userland has saved me twice. It also means I can use one tool for userland things instead of both distrobox and flatpak.

Until I am smart enough to run guixSD completely this feels like a decent compromise.
What you believe isn’t backed up by the long history of a national ID in the US. Your legal theory would have to explain, for example, why some States today (e.g. Washington) do not recognize or accept any Federal IDs, like passports, only State IDs. This is strictly in line with the Constitution, it is entirely permissible for States to reject Federal IDs for all legal purposes. What would compel a State to recognize any new Federal ID in the future if they already have the power to disregard Federal IDs in theory and practice?

A Social Security Number is not an ID expressly as a matter of law, because it can’t be legally. The many loopholes the Federal government tried to use to backdoor a national ID were shutdown by the Supreme Court repeatedly. The US can only have a mandatory national ID system if the individual States, in aggregate, decide to create one. Thus far, they have shown no interest. Real ID is not a unified ID because the Federal government cannot compel it.

As with most persistent problems, the “obvious” solutions are not being ignored because no one has cared or no one has tried but because there are fundamental technical reasons they don’t work.

Funny that you mentioned these distro but I've never installed them, perhaps installed Slackware once, more than 20 years ago then just used Red Hat 7 (the original 7 not the later 7 version). After that Ubuntu and its derivatives.

What people don't realized that most of the Windows and MacOS users never installed their desktop OS, it come pre-installed. The main problem with these "works out the box" distro, there's no "box" to start with. Tried to installed Gentoo when it's initially released but it's a death by thousand cuts if you know what I meant, conflict after conflict resolution, and painfully slow installation process due to it's a source based distro.

If Aeon can work as promised, I think it will be a huge success provided that they solve the installation nightmare of many Linux OS and install seamlessly on mainstream laptop hardware.

Show HN: I built my first project to automate job applications with AI

I'm currently finishing my grad degree and I've been trying to get a job. I noticed that filing out job applications is rather boring and takes a lot of my time for just a few applications. So, me and my friend created a Chrome Extension to automate that process. It takes your CV and, using LLMs, fills out the information in job application so you can just sit back and let the extension do the work. Let me know what you guys think of it. Any feedback is welcome!

While we complain about it a lot, more and more I have come to appreciate the Danish governments online ID solution (MitID). It's certainly not perfect, but it does allow you to do ID verification, without exposing PII to companies.

Understandably not everyone who needs to verify your identity is going to implement MitID, I can understand X not wanting to do that for the limited amount of users they have in Denmark. It's simply not worth the cost. What I don't get is why more countries doesn't have this. The US sure seem like it would benefit greatly from having a standardized, safe and secure online ID (MitID may or may not be as secure as it could be).

Well, the general idea is that it's presumably beneficial to apply a CP charge on net. You discourage people from driving into the city where there's insufficient capacity to move all of the vehicles efficiently.

It's basically pricing an externality that is not normally priced in most cases.

The tax collection is probably the main motivation, but there's going to be significant benefits for many regardless of that - spending less time in traffic, less car usage, etc etc.

A friend applied for a job in the UK civil service - you were required to verify your identity by giving data to a third party, for profit company (and paying for the privilege). All of the companies had recently had significant data breaches. One of them - right there on the government provided guidance - lied about the company (Post Office) to imply a historied bastion of trust. It was blatant.

Verification could have been done using government data, but Tories have to also make a profit off of everything so they instead chose to give every civil service applicants data away to companies with a track record of data leaks.

At your first link, it is said the same thing as the main discovery of the parent article, i.e. that it is required to hold a stretch "for a prolonged period of time", otherwise stretching is not effective.

So the author might have been able to find from the beginning how to do effective stretching by searching carefully the available literature, but the conclusions seem fine.

A useful information in the parent article is giving a numeric value for the "a prolonged period of time" from your link, i.e. as being "at least 2 minutes".

In the case for Lat/Lon, I guess that 0.0 could have a meaning, though it is very unlikely someone is exactly at lat/lon 0.0. An alternative is to translate to the XY coordinate system, though that is not a perfect solution either.

> The worst taxes are the ones that are regressive and secret.

In my book, negative externalities are worse than taxes. If we agree that a car driving in Lower Manhattan inflicts a non-trivial cost on everyone else, then not taxing it leads to socially inefficient outcomes.

Effectively, locals are paying a price either way - either by having their bus moving slower, inhaling fumes, etc, or by buying goods and services that reflect congestion pricing. The difference is that congestion pricing aligns incentives - for instance, delivery drivers may choose to travel to Manhattan during the off-peak hours whereas in the status quo they do not care at all about inconveniencing others.
