You're arguing as if you understand all the side effects of the biochemistry on the biology. None of us do. Theyre correct about one thing: its probably not good for you.

But sure, you might be more right on the basics of the biochemistry.

I didn't ask for open access. Any link would have sufficed.

Without any of that, how do you know that "Angel and colleagues decided that the first estimate had been too short"? Based on what? What did they say?

If you are correct, why didn't Angel publish a correction to his previous article?

Why is it that most of Angel's 1945 article's citations come after 1985 and indeed after 2005? (>20 citations since 2005, of 27 total on CrossRef.)

Ultimately, what you're saying doesn't make much sense. It's either bad science and bad publishing practices, or you are mistaken. (I'd argue that Kron is basically unethical, in any case. There's absolutely no reason not to mention the popular and much-cited 1945 work, even if only to highlight its errors and note that it has been superseded. He covered it up and is guilty of worse cherry-picking than you accused the book authors of.)

Also, that exhaustive 2023 review finds results which are much closer to Angel's 1945 paper -- and indeed cites that paper -- rather than to whatever you're claiming happened in 1985. So by your own argument Angel's 1985 study is now irrelevant and no longer matters.

This is interesting work but it totally misses the boat when it talks about the current state of the art. They cite a 2014 version of the Goel-Hunt-et al formal x86 model in ACL2, but they fail to talk about its modern version. The modern version (developed at Centaur and then Intel!) is an ACL2 x86 model that is so precise that it can boot Linux and run user-land programs. Let me say that again: it is a formal mathematical model of a processor that is so precise that it can boot Linux and run user-land programs! This is a monumental accomplishment and is not even mentioned in their paper.
Did you live under water? How was the pier uphill;)
no, it doesn't work that way at all. The receive side of a communication satellite would be multiple antennas each connected to its own receivers. The receiver all use a common clock source to perform demodulation (which is a bunch of steps usually, but whatever). The result of each receiver is summed, the result signal is transmitted by another transmitter connected to a different antenna on a different frequency. Phase difference between the receivers is used to steer the array. How the phase difference is created varies. But if you overwhelm just one receiver it basically just injects noise into the entire process. So you wind up summing noise with all the other signals, which destroys the signal to noise ratio of the transmitted signal

now if the control station can switch one receiver off to a dummy load, instead of to an antenna that might be useful. Whether or not military comm satellites can do that is most definitely classified.

At the time and in the relevant area (eastern Mediterranean), arsenical bronze was still popular which, while dangerous to create, was easy to create and didn't require tin.
That's a good question, spinach have the same type of iron than in red meat, iron-(Fe3+), so it seems that it could a culprit as well.

It looks like however the absorption of iron in red meat is quite high (15%-35%) compared to spinach (2-5%), so maybe not enough to really be a risk factor.

"It's a subtractive approach to antioxidant protection and it helps."

I will note that there are, in fact, observed benefits that seem to be linked to regular blood-lets, such as one would experience if they regularly gave blood.

what caused this sudden change in greed? Were these actors not greedy before 2019?
Arguably it’s the most common form of sex
I agree, especially with the term "discoverers". I think a key part of what steers us towards the easy answer, and leads us away from thinking on our own is the fact that most questions do in fact have answers readily accessible online. The mystery is gone. The zest for learning & applying knowledge loses a little something when you believe there not much else to be gained on your own. So I agree, breaking new boundaries and making new discoveries is a vital part to maintaining high intelligence levels. But there we have a catch 22. Technology has progressed to the point that in order to consider new boundaries the knowledge required is enormous. This prerequisite severely limits access to these boundaries on a large scale. Only a small percent will have the means (financial, intellectual, ect) to acquire the knowledge necessary. This of course would lead to a larger perceived IQ divide among the masses.

You're relying on compression either way... my hunch is that controlling the compression yourself may get you a better result.

Git does not store diffs, it stores every version. These get compressed into packfiles https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Internals-Packfiles. It looks like it uses zlib.
Obviously people realize that.

However, that is only one factor among several that are considered when making that sort of decision.
I think you're right. I've been comparing these two directly:

2020: https://adstransparency.google.com/advertiser/AR123656109299...

2024: https://adstransparency.google.com/advertiser/AR104621681140...

Looks like it's primarily the "location" demographic that is actually different. Neither ad excludes any demographics for Age or Gender but the 2024 includes specific locations for advertisements. So maybe fewer people in Europe and elsewhere seeing American political ads, which I'd assume is preferred by the advertisers. I can see how that would compound to this effect; fewer valuable targets and more value per target.

(Another thing I notice is the ad run length. The 2020 ads ran for a single day (with over 10M views!) and the 2024 ads have been running for weeks or months. Not sure if that's relevant to the expenditure but it's interesting to note.)
Right. And if I were a pop-sci writer, my article about it would probably get a headline like "Moths hid in soot by getting darker." Moths didn't do anything, there was no intention.

We are addicted to stories with protagonists, heroes and villains, and so that's how these stories are framed. But that's the exact opposite of what is happening, and everyone knows it, but apparently we just accept it as inevitable.

I dunno what you're using, but GMail is doing great for me.

The vast majority of the truly crappy spam just gets dropped on the floor. Practically none of it gets into my actual inbox.

My spam folder gets about 1 message per day. About half of it is well and truly spam. The other half is more-or-less legitimate mass email, and I unsubscribe to them when I notice them.

The emails you're describing sound like cold calls from companies that really ought to know better. You should report them as spam, and your provider should start weeding them out. Following the CAN-SPAM rules would be smart for them, because that's less likely to get them tagged as spammers and just plain filtered out.

Maybe you need a different provider. As far as I'm concerned, Google has solved the spam problem, at least to a tolerable level. I'm sure others have as well.
> It's well known in cryptocurrency circles that their coin is not backed 1:1 to USD

Its well known in the legal space and has already been addressed by multiple US courts. They're not looking for that and this isn't controversial.

Those court cases already happened in 2018-2020. Tether just needed to update its language. A financial institution not backed 1:1 to USD isn't a problem in any part of the banking sector, they just need a disclaimer that says that, and Tether updated their's and moved on. Those court cases were also about specific periods of time and were very intelligent and more nuanced than the Tether discourse in crypto spaces. Tether has periodically had more assets available, and its only controversy was about whether those were USD and US Treasuries amongst other things.

This is a probe about violating AML laws and sanctions. Which would likely only involve specific addresses in crypto and some onramps. But otherwise crypto-crypto trading won't be a part of this.

> Like they have the youngest population in Europe (heavily catholic, no abortion rights).

That's an outdated view. After the baby boom of the early 1980s fertility rate started dropping - a process greatly accelerated by the shift to capitalism. Overall the population of Poland peaked around the turn of the century and has been largely in decline ever since.

Religious observance has been in decline since at least 2005, after pope John Paul II died. Currently less than 30% of the population attends mass on a regular basis.

No abortion rights is correct - it has actually gotten worse in recent years and the current government, despite running on a liberal platform, is dragging its feet regarding the issue. Some cite that as one of the reasons for catastrophically low birth rates, especially considering a few high profile incidents where an abortion would have likely saved the mother's life, but ultimately wasn't performed.
I wonder if tea, coffee, wine, phytate containing foods (beans, nuts) and calcium rich foods (dairy, etc) would counter the risk by blocking iron absorption.
You're assuming we're all being poisoned. We might not be, and clearly if we are, it's not a huge effect because we're still not obviously more diseasous than before. It could even be that the benefits of these chemicals on civilization outweigh the health costs so we're better off using them.

All those vehicles have been selling for much longer (and the CT does not outsell the Y).

The problem with SELinux is it's very fragile and basically broken outside RedHat distros.

As an experiment I installed SELinux on Debian and while I was eventually able to get it stable and working after a lot of trial and error, a disk swap followed by an rsync broke it irreparably. Yes I rescanned the disk or whatever to have SEL relearn/reindex the objects, didn't work. The box was basically unbootable or it would boot and rejected all logins, including root directly to the console, something that should nearly never happen. Documentation is sparse or assumes you have RedHat and it 'just works'. After hours of troubleshooting the only thing that worked was switching it off and saying good riddance.

Show HN: Utilizing AI to summarize my favourite daily tech news podcast
You're assuming were not all being poisoned, lol. Did you even read what I wrote.

There's plenty of evidence we're increasingly fucking with our bodies, again see the rising rates of cancer in youth. Yes, there are likely many causes for that. You'd have to be criminally negligent to argue a class of chemicals like phthalates is in the clear. Yes, the details are complicated. Yes, the dose makes the poison. Yes.

I believe we're smart enough to find a way to have/eat out cake, but smart people are arguing in this classic way about details that miss the main point people should care about, downplaying the issue in a way that laypeople cant understand the nuance of. So we keep following the $$$ and likely poisoning ourselves.
It wasn't always like that. The actual solution is something that all forums have done for decades starting in the 90s with BBS/moderated usenet groups.

You only allow moderators to do the actual moderating. You don't allow upvotes or downvotes because they are used following a sybil attack structure (many sock-puppet accounts to one person) to silence or amplify messages.

You have a flag button (which they already have in place for HN), to report content that should be flagged for violating rules.

Those that report spurious (good) content get warned/punished for abusing the flag features. They may have the feature silently revoked (shadowbanned) for abuses, or banned for other activity suggesting the accounts are sockpuppets (i.e. going directly to an article when normal viewing requires first loading the index, then following a link with the associated metadata including the referrer to get to the page to make a report.

It really is that simple.

This moderates, and it limits bad actors, its still done in most online forums that are still around; because it works.

I’d wish this too. I’m afraid that Apple over the next few year would become more risk averse then ever before.
Also old Execs are leaving and retiring - so less people with hands on experience how to start new products VS keeping lights on.
Vegans, especially vegan women of menstruating age, are well known to be almost universally iron-deficient, because our bodies absorb iron from meats much more readily than other (such as vegan) sources.

Interestingly, Vitamin C increases the rate at which you can get iron from greens such as spinach. So maybe a glass or orange juice and a bowl of salad a day keeps the doctor away.

You should keep in mind that you’re disapproving of your father’s lifestyle choices and his choices were not determined by the drug.

Many people make different choices on those drugs. Eg once they’ve lost some weight and it’s easier to move, they move more and the sedentary lifestyle changes. Similarly, I’ve seen antidepressants used to get enough functioning and control back that the chain of causes and effects can start to be addressed and intervened in.

That's really what some/most companies want, a platform that can run cheap, fast and easy VMs, like on-prem, but without the hassle of having to deal with the hardware and physical network part, like in the cloud. Sadly that's not the choice being offered.

I don't know, I've seen the shittiest stuff built on-prem and in cloud, and I've seem completely amazing on-prem infrastructure and cloud stuff that could not possibly be built outside AWS.
There's a bunch of ways to override it if you have early control over the process. Another example: ptrace the executable, watch the system calls, and skip over any mseal(2)s.

This system call is meant for a different threat model than "attacker has early access to your process before it started initializing".

A lot of nationwide ads aren't intended to directly influence voting. Rather they are campaign donation solicitations to get more money to run future ads targeted to undecided voters in swing states.
