Those protests are to provoke people into physical violence. They are organized by a personal injury lawyer.

People say a lot of shit, but actually doing an effort out of spite is work, if they do that, they probably think. This is how all protests work. The 1960s black rights protests would like to have a word with you regarding efficacy. :)

What's most wild about all of this to me is that EA has claimed for years a "technical impossibility" to unlink an existing Xbox account and re-link with a new one. (See https://www.reddit.com/r/XboxGamePass/comments/12gsy4i/ea_xb... and many other forum posts on EA). I ran into this wall and after spending hours on support calls with EA they were unable to link a very old Xbox account I had, meaning I can't login to any EA games on Xbox, making the majority of them unplayable on the platform.
Yet, here, we see, it is very much possible.

This article brings up some very simple software engineering problems and the most obvious/widely used approach to dealing with them, but this is by no means the only approach that works best at scale. Also not necessarily the best approach at scale because sometimes you do need to roll back.

If you're serious about writing robust and reliable systems, think about V-1 and V+1 not just the version you are writing and deploying. The point about your code interacting with multiple versions in production is a good one, but also upgrades and downgrades should be considered.

That's a bit of an unserious argument, to put it mildly. When people say "China" here, we're talking about a specific subset of bad/adversarial actors, whether in government or (I guess in the case) the drug trade. I have no problem with the vast majority of that 1.4 billion.

Support them by boycotting. I don't understand your statement here. Are you saying that because you have it fairly well, that you should let your labor be as exploited as possible?

If I earn 200k a year, and my employer earns 1MM a year from my labor, why should I not protest for better work conditions, or more % of my labor? If my labor is valuable I should be able to capitalize on it as well.

A worker earning 20k who is making the employer 40k a year is earning a higher % of their labor value than someone making 200k earning 1M a year for the employer.

Germany's far right stirs up culture war over Bauhaus legacy
Getting raided can happen to companies of any size, Mullvad comes to mind as an example of a company that's small, European and got raided, but it is incredibly rare. It's hard to overstate how exceptional it is, you need to either be on the police radar with a serious issue, or breaking the tax law considerably, or etc. I think the main reason you see this happen to a lot of American companies is that they expand to Europe, but try to do business the same way they did back home. Both the legal landscape and the moral landscape wrt it are very different in Europe, and trying to willingly evade taxes for example is tended to with a very heavy hand. If I'm not mistaken, that's what's happened to Netflix here: they already got caught evading taxes once, and now there's a suspicion that they're doing it again/still.

Could you explain why you believe that the war in Gaza is a genocide?

I’m not discounting the fact that many people believe it’s a genocide, I’m saying that they think so because our adversaries propaganda has been incredibly effective. I frequently see posts from communities of people who would be executed in the ME for their beliefs supporting the regimes who would drop the guillotine.

Civilian deaths are a tragic but expected outcome of war. The real deaths counts are completely within the expected civilian death margin for a typical war. The only claims I have seen with numbers that would actually indicate a genocide come from propaganda rags.

I think Israel is showing a lot of restraint and is mitigating civilian deaths as best it can but Iran and their proxies have embedded their fighters within the civilian population and aid organizations to an extent that makes minimizing civilian casualties extremely challenging.

On a separate note, the bot problem on Reddit is arguably worse than anywhere else on the internet.

I’d encourage you to seek out some of the astroturfing services to get a sense of how bad it is as good botnets are basically undetectable nowadays. They use real looking accounts with post schedulers to simulate real activity and then mix in their clients messages.

I do agree that the actions taken to mitigate the bots can cause a siloing of opinions that can elicit an echo chamber effect but what else could they do? Reddit is completely uninterested in dealing with the problem because it boosts their metrics and bots can overwhelm any sub that doesn’t attempt to contain them.

That works relatively well until you get injured, which, for people who train seriously, is almost inevitable. Then you have to train around said injury either temporarly or permantently and find great use for various machines.

Or you get to a high enough level (for you genetics), where targeting a specific area is more efficient with some kind of a machine.

Or you've been training for many years and are now getting older- lots of folks can't really bench after about 40, and same goes for the dips.

Doing compound lifts is a great way to build both strength and muscle mass, but it is a bit myopic to call machines useless. Nuance is important.

The company is liable for $10 per hacked user minus 100X the bounty spend for that year.
The point you're making is valid, but also exposes a common theme in litigation against big tech. It's pretty common to hear something like "company XYZ used data ABC to train a model about their users and is court ordered to delete it". It's unlikely that anyone in the justice system has even the slightest clue how to ascertain if this actually happened and certainly no way to prove it has been deleted. The court gives the order, the company says they have complied, & everyone pretends to go back to the way things were before hand.
It's from the same report.. this one is about first-time homebuyers ie people on average wait until they're 38 to buy a house (this was noted in yesterday's article too, "median age of first-time buyers also rose from 35 to 38").

The other is about the age of all home purchasers, since many buy again (upgrade/downgrade size, change school district, move, retire) they'll be counted more than once and the age will be higher. An empty nester selling a McMansion for a town house pulls this up.

My hot(?) take as a reader: I want none of this.

Just give me proper semantics and let my reader (while respecting my personal preferences) figure out presentation. I'm quite tired of publishers thinking that they somehow need to "preserve the unique aesthetics" of a paper-based medium, despite that usually working out quite poorly.

Fonts that look great on paper don't necessarily on my eInk, LCD, or OLED display I'm reading the book on, for one thing. Margings/padding are usually a world of pain, and one of the first things I end up doing when opening a new ePub is often to disable all publisher formatting.

While I love the idea of an open format and really don't like the idea of being stuck in Amazon's walled garden, at least they figured that part out in their Kindle ecosystem from the beginning. With ePub, it's been hit and miss.

Show HN: Whirlwind – Async concurrent hashmap for Rust
Hey HN, this is Will and David from Fortress (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41426998).

We use a lot of async Rust internally, and created this library out of a need for an async-aware concurrent hashmap since there weren’t many available in the Rust ecosystem.

Whirlwind is a sharded HashMap with a fully asynchronous API. Just as dashmap is a replacement for std::sync::RwLock<HashMap>, whirlwind aims to be a replacement for tokio::sync::RwLock<HashMap>. It has a similar design and performance characteristics to dashmap, but seems to perform better in read-heavy workloads with tokio's green threading.

Benchmarks are in the readme! We used an asyncified version of dashmap's benchmark suite. The project is in a pretty early stage and I'm sure there are flaws, but I'm pretty happy with the performance.

There is some unsafe involved, but we run Miri in ci to (hopefully) catch undefined behavior well before it's in an actual release.

We'd appreciate any feedback! Thanks in advance :)
Your analogy doesn’t work. Your neighbor is not you.

$COMPANY is $COMPANY all around the world and if $COMPANY wants to do business in $COUNTRY (which is not an obligation, they choose to), then yes, they have to entirely cooperate with $COUNTRY.

If they don’t want to, they can still do business elsewhere.
They do not, they focus on self over others in the modern era. Modern Rural is a horrible place often.
Encouraging someone to commit a crime seems quite immoral to me. Somehow the government always find a way to justify their immoral behavior, and I don't buy it.

Maybe this explains why the US is out ahead in GDP, income, and is doing much better pre and post covid than Europe.

It's not so much breaking laws, but unnecessary restrictions and harassment by Europeans states.

The US is business friendly. It's industry friendly. We don't needlessly harass the business of sovereign individuals, and the state apparatus isn't being used as an excuse as to exert power or influence over the population. Not to the same paternalistic extent of Europe.

In Europe the liberal state apparatus that replaced the monarchies are acting an awful lot like the monarchies.

> If it's so fast then why hasn't it already happened? Why is only 4% of production from solar, instead of e.g. 40%?

Basically because economic growth is exponential, and exponential growth starts slow. If a certain alga doubles its population every day and takes 30 days to cover a certain lake, how long does it take to cover half the lake?

29 days. On what day does it cover 4% of the lake?

Day 25.

Until about 8 years ago, solar was too expensive in most countries to compete with fossil fuels without subsidies, and then there was a period of four years when the Chinese cartel announced in https://www.reuters.com/article/us-davos-meeting-solar-gcl-i... fixed prices to keep them artificially high, as you can see on https://www.solarserver.de/photovoltaik-preis-pv-modul-preis.... Since that cartel evidently collapsed in late 02022, the cost of "mainstream" solar panels in the Preisindex has gone from €0.34/Wp to €0.11/Wp, and the cost of "low cost" panels has dropped from €0.22/Wp to €0.065/Wp. This month, for the first time, the Preisindex is no longer rounding prices to the nearest €0.01/Wp.

A crucial question, then, is what the exponential growth rate is. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Growth_of_photovoltaics says that from 02016 to 02022 the growth rate was 26%. At that rate, growing from 4% to 100% would take 14 years; if 4% were now, that would mean producing more energy from solar than from all sources today in 02038.

That doesn't mean people will stop burning coal, of course. It just means it'll be a marginal activity.

> How far do we get on accelerating growth before it flattens out because the low-hanging fruit is picked and the remaining demand is a bad match for solar's generation profile?

That's another crucial question, and one that is very hard to predict, but most likely at a few orders of magnitude larger than current world marketed energy consumption.

Solar energy is cheap enough to be applied to many applications for which previous energy sources were too expensive. €0.065/Wp at a capacity factor of 20% is €0.33/W; financed forever at an interest rate of 5%/year that would be €0.016/W year. A watt year is 8.77 kilowatt hours, so that works out to be €0.0018 per kilowatt hour, or €0.51/GJ. This is 200× lower than what people in California are paying today. This is a rough estimate. You can figure in the panels' nominal 20-year lifetime to get a more precise figure, though the "low cost" category generally comes with no such warranty. Also, utility companies can usually get a better interest rate than 5%. But it's in the ballpark.

For many purposes, this works out to basically unlimited energy as long as you only need it when the sun is shining. Atmospheric carbon capture is a crucial one.

> What if [sodium-ion battery technology] doesn't [become a thing],

People will make do with lithium-ion and other forms of energy storage such as sensible heat energy storage, phase-change material energy storage, and TCES.

Your inquiry reminds me of Game Boy. Some 4000 early Game Boy consoles had a specific hardware quirk that limited the refresh rate of the screen under a specific method. For the whole decade of existence of Game Boy, every single game was tested for this specific bug by Nintendo, and a few developers got burned because they wanted to use the refresh method but couldn't.

I bet it's a similar situation. Something like 99% of all drives could have handled what you're describing, but the 1% stopped anybody from trying your method.
