> making it easier to source keratin from a bioreactor

Keratin is readily available and cheap

Here's 50g of it on Amazon for $16: https://www.amazon.com/Myoc-Keratin-Powder-Conditioner-Produ...

And you can get it from chemical manufacturers in purer forms for much more expensive but that's true for any high grade chemical.

In fact, if we type your question into Google we find this 2019 article that even references a 2015 article about attempts to do exactly that: https://www.vox.com/down-to-earth/22723289/3d-printed-rhino-...

I highly suggest googling solutions that you think are rather obvious. It can often lead to surprising results as things can interestingly become complex. And at the worst case, you find that your idea works and you can throw in a citation to give your proposition more weight. Seems like a win win to me and at very little cost in time.
> Any object on a collision course with earth will NOT be moving across the background in the days leading up to the collision.

Earth itself moves, so anything appearing static would be easy to spot since it's the background that also moves relative to an observer.
> The Supreme Court on Friday curtailed the executive branch's ability to interpret laws it's charged with implementing, giving the judiciary more say in what federal agencies can do.

That is one way to view it. Another way is that legislation should be left to legislators.

Is there actually any point in using it? My initial thought was they would allow a more “atom” approach while still keeping all the vscode functionality.

But it looks like it’s aimed more for “building your own IDE” without having to start from scratch, feels just like the old eclipse.

Maybe I’m missing something but why would anyone bother using this?
Hard no
Plus all the kids advertising on Nextdoor, including members of Stanford's team.
I really think this article could be framed (and titled) better.

It's clearly an expression of love for the author's child, but it's wrapped in a selfish sentiment in our modern world.

Most people that are not trying to have children have chosen so either because they know they cannot afford to give a child a good life, or because they loathe to bring a new life into the quickly deteriorating world around them.

Some other hardware features were very good for the time. It gets a lot of heat for the initial reliability issues, but they were eventually solved. They also limited the Apple ][ emulation to 2+ features, so no 80 columns, and that was probably a mistake. On the other hand the good features were:

- Profile hard disk (but would have been better if you could boot from it).
- Movable zero page, so the OS and the application each had their own zero page.
- As mentioned, 80 column text and high resolution graphics.
- Up to 512k addressable RAM, either through indirection or bank switching.

It was probably the most ambitious 6502 based computer, until the 65816 based IIgs came along. And SOS was better than ProDOS.
Before inventing a new serialization protocol it would be good to first study the field and pick an existing protocol that ticks all the right boxes, and if the tooling isn't very good then write new tooling -- you'd have to write new tooling for a new protocol anyways, but if you can find a good enough existing one then you don't also have to write a spec, thus saving you a lot of time.

Well, no, I specifically mean niche.

Outside of Europe it sure is.
That's entirely alien to me. I cannot picture faces nor text in my head.
Sounds awfully like academia.

I hate meeting some of my former colleagues. Worse, success in academia is not entirely determined by how smart you are - your ability to socialize and market had far greater impact.

Ofc. academics' priority for knowledge is far far lower today than fame and money.

Also the more enjoyable tasks will be replaced with more drudgery. "I wish I could automate writing code so I could spend more time doing code reviews," said no-one ever, but that's the glorious future the "AI" developers are selling.
I wonder if there was another kid out there somewhere who was scared of wild animals (including cute ones) and who became more reluctant to use Firefox as a result of the rebranding.
Did you miss the part where I said " while it's held hostage by obstructionists"?

When everyone is in agreement, congress is not being held hostage by obstructionists and some things can pass. When obstructionists are in disagreement, they can prevent anything from passing.
Case in point: the same equations predict white holes, which today are widely believed to not exist.
A more niche but nonetheless interesting method that I was hoping to see discussed was magnetism. Gravitational waves are expected to decay into photons in intense magnetic fields. Or so I was told by one of my physics professors back in the day. I did understand the math somewhat back then, but it is beyond me now. It does however seem as though some people are still exploring this avenue [0].

I think this misses an important distinction. The issue here isn't the extent to which Congress can delegate rule-making authority to executive agencies. Those bounds haven't been moved. The issue is how how much deference courts are to give agencies when deciding when an agency-made rule reasonably adheres to the purpose and function of a statute. In theory the degree of deference shouldn't matter--agencies' retain the same rule-making authority and flexibility as before--but as a matter of process it absolutely does.

SCOTUS invented the Chevron doctrine because it believed at the time courts were too quick to second-guess the logic behind agency rule making, and in doing so unnecessarily and improperly inserting themselves into technical debates as well as broader political debates. IOW, the court was primarily concerned with people using the courts to subvert executive prerogatives and electoral politics. The concern now, apparently, is that administrations are using agency flexibility to subvert electoral politics.

Then and now, by moving the threshold for when courts can second-guess federal agencies, it's effectively altering the rights and responsibilities between Congress and the President, as well as between those two institutions and the electorate more broadly.
More likely that would go in https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html although the line between that and https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html is a bit blurry.

There are lots of established practices or conventions here that haven't been elevated to that level because we don't want to make those lists too long. At a certain point it would start to feel bureaucratic and that would be bad; also, the longer they are the less people will read them. Arguably one can derive 'no generated comments' from what's already there though I agree it's not entirely obvious.

The community has been doing a pretty good job of managing this issue though, so I'm not sure it needs officialization.
Although I appreciate the author's sentiment, and would probably appreciate the encouragement on those bases if I was in a more stable circumstance or considering having a kid at all, it's hard to escape the sense that in many cases we're not being passed a torch—from broader society or our own relatives—but rather a flickering ember that we're to attempt to re-ignite at 11pm while camping in the Pacific Northwest. If you're feeling squeezed, it's hard to rationalize squeezing one out. If you didn't grow up with a stable family life and don't see a reliable income on the horizon, I don't know how adding a child would compute. But... that's not everyone, not by a mile, and maybe people who are on the fence could use the reflections of a new parent like this.
Ask HN: Is open sourcing your code still an option with the rise of AI?
wondering what everyone's thoughts are regarding open sourcing your own code you've kept under lock and key for a long time, with the rise of AI and inability to enforce licenses or control whether code is used for training.
No, and there was no (easy) way to detect the vertical retrace. For a lot more on that topic have a look at the Apple II mouse card, they needed to synchronise with the video and did work out a software based way of doing it, but the final product added hardware to make it possible.
I don't think it's a good plan, but if you incarcerate the homeless, you're housing them and meeting their basic needs. At least until the prisons become overcrowded.

There's lots of reasons why it's not a good solution, but having encampments in public parks isn't a good solution either.

But I think this ruling allows governments to disrupt encampments without providing shelter or incarceration. Forcing people to disperse from an encampment with nowhere in particular to disperse to, is probably a worse result for the people in the camps, and is likely not to be effective for the communities impacted by the camps; the camps may move around more often, but they'll likely start up again with the same few places in rotation.
Yeah, I was lucky that early in my career a swdev turned me onto intellij stuff, it's sometimes second best at stuff and sometimes the bugs are 10 years old with no fixes in sight, but it still feels way better all the time than vscode.
I'm a fair bit older than you... What you're saying is true but it's also worth mentioning your body has capabilities you're probably far from reaching. Most people your age can still exceed any physical accomplishment they've had in their lifetime if they really want to. E.g. they can play sports better than they ever had and they can achieve personal bests in any physical ability. If you were a top level professional athlete that's probably not true (though even professional athletes have longer careers than they used to) or if you've been a top 10 GM in chess than that's probably behind you too, but otherwise you're young!

I don't know what specific injuries you're suffering from but I've suffered from back pain and really improved my situation a lot. I'm physically stronger than I've ever been in my life. I've worked through some knee injuries. I've even recently improved my gum health (in a way someone said wasn't possible). It takes more work and more focus but our bodies are amazing machines and 37 ain't old.
I tried to add a new SQL function to CockroachDB. I had never seen the source before, but since it was such nice Go code, it only took me a few hours to have a working build, with tests.
We dumped lead all over the environment. You can basically assume anything grown has lead, the only question being how much. Likewise, mercury. In some areas there's a lot of arsenic.

Most everything high on the periodic table is nasty. The few that we willingly associate with are because they are non-reactive enough to not actually pose a threat even if in theory they're harmful. (Consider the use of barium to image the digestive system. They use a form of it that's sufficiently insoluble that you don't get poisoned.)
Can recommend. Though not for everyone, it's one of those things I didn't know I was missing and was sure I wasn't ready for. It's amazing to me how my thought processes seemed to rewire themselves. Everything from how I care about people, tolerate children, and predicting the outcome of risky situations changed.

But- if you're sure the answer is no, it's no - no judgment.
I recently read Michael Lewis's "The New New Thing," which posits that Netscape was a get-rich-quick scheme by Jim Clark to fund a computer-navigated sailboat. He knew that Microsoft would render the company obsolete in six months, and bet that investors wouldn't glom on to that fact quickly enough. And boy was he right!
Fertility drop is a self correcting problem. The people who are not having kids will be less represented in the future gene pool. Those who are having 3 or 4+ kids, and whatever the associated genes are, will make up the majority within a few generations.

And also, humans probably overshot on reproduction in the 20th century. It was 5-10x growth. Cutting back and focusing on quality for a century or two seems like a good idea.

Trying to proselytize or raise a crisis about fertility is pointless.
That's because historical gerrymandering was not as severe as now. Modern gerrymandering uses computer modeling to slice minorities as thinly as possible, creating insurmountable barriers.

It’s a beautiful eulogy that I liked reading. It is a beautiful thing and I like it celebrated in this tender way.
Do you have more information on how the dataset was constructed?

It seems like somehow build systems were invoked given the different targets present in the final version?

Was it mostly C/C++ (if so, how did you resolve missing includes/build flags), or something else?
The problem with this perspective in my opinion is that many times, especially for an elderly person, a small emergency can very quickly escalate into a life and death situation, and the outcome is not clear until it’s too late. you may enter the hospital thinking you have a decent outcome, but you end up with a bad outcome.

for example, nobody plans to go on a ventilator. But if you need one (like severe pneumonia), you’re already pretty messed up and you’re going to have a painful death with or without the tubes.
I went to that! Heady times.

> with the rise of AI and inability to enforce licenses or control whether code is used for training.

The inability to precisely enforce license abuse has always been a problem with Open-Sourcing your code. I don't understand how someone would see AI as a dealbreaker in the real-world of Open Source pragmatism.
You mean this:

> You need to judge over-regulation as it relates to society as a whole.

That doesn't seem to be a heuristic. E.g. "wheelchair ramps are cheap over the lifetime of a building, so it's obvious we should add them" is a good justification of something not being over-regulation - the "bang for buck" heuristic. But the quoted text doesn't contain a heuristic, so we can't judge anything based on it.
I’m quite convinced that I live in a country where we never let people die like this.

Also, I guess prolonging treatment is in the interest of for-profit hospitals as found in other countries, thus as long as your suffering is profitable, you wil…
Thanks for your explanation.

What I don't understand is why there's no easy way to conditionally render
a subtree depending on promises contained in the props of the top-level component.

Kind of like a guardian HOC triggering a re-render whenever all props promises resolve.

Is it because that would be a one-time thing and not synchronously reactive?

Seems like people reimplement or reuse this kind of thing all the time, but often using useEffect (transforming side-effects into state, losing deterministic rendering).

You're right that this would get ugly really fast with nested suspense boundaries though.
because as we know, human behavior is primarily genetic

>This is a surprising perspective given that in many ways I had the same conversation with chatgpt about my work that I might have had with a colleague or a spouse.

Yes, it's possible to scoop academic colleagues and steal ideas from spouses. Plagiarism applies there too.

>But I don't think we have any consensus as to where the line should be between "acceptable use" and plagerism.

Perhaps, but using it to generate ideas you claim are yours, let alone quoting it directly, are all well past that line. Unless you put ChatGPT in the author list of the paper, in which case, sure, fair play.

>For reference, of course the calculator policy at my Australian school in the 90s was different from yours. We generally weren't allowed calculators on the school grounds at all. That started to change right at the end of high school, when they started allowing calculators in class and non-graphing calculators in examinations. (They checked as we walked in the door). But for most of my grade school experience, calculators were banned.

Unsurprisingly, this doesn't change or contradict my point at all. Any math you're doing in high school should not require a calculator, or at the very least can be taught without any calculators used.

>Rude. Rude and wrong.

I'm speaking with a tone appropriate for the nature of my company here (an academic fraud and one or two people who support him)
That's 100% opposite of the current state. Historically Democrats and Republicans used the classic gerrymandering.

However, now it's pretty much only Republicans who rely on computer-aided models to gerrymander the districts.

There _are_ Democratic examples, and the worst ones are in Maryland and Illinois. But they pale before the Republican gerrymandering.
Generally speaking, a specific law is always better than a vague law. It allows for more fairer enforcement and better understanding of the law concerned.

If the words written on paper don't actually mean anything and can be interpreted wildly, what is even the point of passing laws?

Writing and passing unnecessarily vague laws open to interpretation and saying your job is done is like Bethesda publishing a bug infested game and saying they have a finished product. No, your work is shit, go back to the workshop.
For systems with many services that need 99.9..% uptime, the ways to do ANY change is things like expand-contract.

In most such cases you have several instances of your backend running in parallel for scaling and redundancy and when making a release, instances of several versions run concurrently. So you don't have a "atomic upgrade" available

With multiple services coordinating upgrade is even harder.

Patterns like expand-contract helps you manage this..E.g. first add the new endpoint to server, then move clients over, then remove old endpoint.

So..feature flags is just a way of dragging this process over longer time period, and roll over % of traffic. Instead of coupling changes to service releases you roll over using config.

Used them a lot in backend to backend, backend to DB etc scenarios, has been hugely useful to us and would never work without it.

But, of course depend on context what you are doing.
You aren't going to have a choice - anything you make available on the web will be consumed by AI regardless of the license. That is essentially going to be the primary purpose of the web going forward, to provide training data for AI.
Except it wouldn't apply to this thread or the reaction to this event.

If you're being a jerk, and I'm commenting on your behavior, I'm not making any kind of error if I don't mention how Steve was being a jerk two weeks ago. And honestly, insisting that I talk about Steve would be an effort to deny responsibility and distract from your own behavior.
> I think many of my colleagues at google found it surprising how many of the things they thought were unique to google actually also existed at FB.

Google workers are groomed to believe Google is the best, and hence they are too. A corollary of that, then, is that nobody else has it that good, when in fact, others sometimes have it better.

> i don't understand the nature of hedy but it sounds like just another scripting language; what would make it especially difficult or costly to implement? i don't understand what you mean by 'user-localizable' or 'more overtly'

The language drop-down on the editor / try-it page translates not just page text, but the scripting language keywords itself. I haven't had time to dig into it yet, but it's inherently an internationally oriented scripting language by design since the goal is to allow adding your own language to the supported set of keyword display languages.
