> Under the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act, there's 8 groups that MUST be labeled: milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat and soybeans.

Nine groups, since 2023: the FASTER Act mandates labeling sesame as well.
If you haven't visited that link I provided in the last five minutes, I urge you to do so. In that thread, a fellow has done some decent detective work.

It looks like the article author (and/or editor) has played lazy telephone, and the FDA issued no such statement.

Just grabbed the source, and it's a pretty bog standard ./configure ; make. Simple build instructions in the readme. Not sure this is a daunting challenge for any even moderately skilled developer.
A lot of the comments here, and the article itself, are missing an important detail.

The name of the product is "Kirkland Signature Sweet Cream Butter". The ingredient list on the package lists cream, it just doesn't have the required language "contains milk".

Are there actual humans that are so deathly allergic to milk but somehow don't know what cream is? E.g. there is a comment in this thread that states:

>"Would you toss your butter in the trash if the label left out one critical detail?"

> yes, if that 'one critical detail' could in fact fucking kill me...

I mean, imagine if someone had an allergy so allergic to milk it could "fucking kill them", are they somehow loading up on "Sweet Creamy Butter" and are then shocked that it contains milk??

I get why, bureaucratically, you want to have hard lines, so I understand the recall. I just think this article and some comments that there is actual potential danger in this case are laughably ridiculous.
Dumping the keys before the messages are deleted is kind of pointless. An attacker that gets some form of access to the private key material is going to also have access to any archived messages in any sort of instant messaging environment. You can't make old messages go away simply by forgetting the session key used to transmit them if you keep them around in some other form.
It was more than a "lack of action" by the DOJ, they full on cleared him of any wrongdoing.
no, to my mind there's diversity, and there's "there are always two sides to everything and both have to be given equal consideration". the latter is a huge mistake and is how we get climate change deniers and transphobes platformed in major newspapers.

> To do — how? by invading their countries and establishing a police state? That’s a little too much even for so called “nationalists”. I think it’s just plain old bribery and propaganda.

Plenty of right-wing extremists seemed happy to help the Nazis run their country (most definitely in a police-state spirit) after it was conquered in WW2. I think you underestimate the importance of ideology.
You could do that if your objective was to save the butter, but the butter is cheap and quick to replace. The time and labor required to distribute stickers and apply them to 47000 individual boxes--and this is Costco, which stocks by case--is more than it's worth.
I mean why stop there with this analogy? we didn’t solve that problem by building decentralized banks. As a society the solution we came up to this is regulations around what banks can or can’t do, how much notice they must give you. If user data is so valuable (and I would vehemently argue that it is) we must have regulations to protect that.
Global high, sure, and yet at the same time a very probable peak with a future of steady fall:

For the forecast period, we expect a net reduction in global coal production starting in 2024, which would mean global coal production peaking in 2023 in line with global coal demand.

Ongoing declines in the United States and the European Union are likely to be complemented by reduced production volumes in Indonesia, as Chinese demand for seaborne thermal coal is likely to decrease.

The last bastion of remarkable growth in production is India, serving the growing demand from its power sector.

Our model suggests that declines in other countries will more than offset this growth

I think that if you have a neutral social network and a politically-charged social network, the neutral one will attract more eyeballs. People like to see ideas challenged and debated. Heavily-moderated and single-sided networks (Mastodon, Truth social, etc.) are simply boring compared to celebrity drama and political clashes on twitter.

What you have in the modern internet is that left-leaning users avoid networks that aren't moderated in their favor (in a conscious attempt to prevent moving the overton window), which leads to right-wing takeover (and eventually death of the social network because there are only right-wingers, see the graveyard of reddit alternatives). This trend would have been reversed a decade ago.
You think comments like mine should be flagged/invisible by default?

... Idk man, seems kinda fascist tbh.

OP made blocking rules as a personal preference - 100% fine.

Expecting censorship of political topics like rising fascism as the default - dangerously naive.
If you see that on a product, you'd expect that the thing was made with milk, but does not contain any as far as you need to worry about allergens, and that it's tested to be safe.

It's a valid case in the truth table where somebody with a milk allergy should be safe to eat it
Maybe we should also cling to hope because JD said some nice things about her too but let's be real: the billionaires want her gone. Elon has already tweeted that she will be fired. There's no way she will be able to stay on.

I've seen enough comments from you on technical computing subjects over the last decade to know that you have a firm grasp of concepts such as caching and other related ways to take advantage of usage patterns to optimize things.

Just as caches are useful in computing even if they are too small to hold everything so too is a contains section that only lists the top 9 allergens. That covers 90% of food allergies in the US.
This is a strawman. It seems obvious the number of items covered is a balance between the size of the affected population and the size of the list. I use "it seems obvious" intentionally.
What about the people who don't know that? Just because someone is dumb or stupid DOES NOT make them less of a person, with the full rights and ability to live their life to the fullest, just like you and me.

Reperfusion injury can occur after a crush injury. The myoglobin, creatine, potassium and phosphorus from destroyed muscle cells cause kidney damage. The potassium is really important as it is supposed to stay locked within cells and high levels can cause arrhythmias. For more info look up crush syndrome and reperfusion injury. This is all slightly different from hypothermia but may share some pathways if cells are destroyed.
Yeah, or the kinda-better-named “x-sendfile” on apache2. Same effect.
When .NET finally came out and I started learning about it (I had signed up for a course at this point) I remember it feeling much more complicated - I didn't understand why I needed objects and I also recall not understanding access modifiers like protected / private - who am I protecting my code from? The book I got for the course was like an encyclopedia. I failed the microsoft certification exam, not surprisingly. I was just finishing middle school and starting high school so it didn't really matter.

I think there's probably some lesson in there about microsoft misunderstanding the strength of VB as a RAD tool for mom and pop shops and non-software firms who have a single tinkerer, rather than an Enterprise Language. It died a slow death in favor of C# at that point. Embrace, extend, extinguish, perhaps.
The terms "macro" and "metaprogramming" already have well-defined meanings in the C++ community. You're just hijacking the terms and using them with some new definition.

The C++ standard is consistent in how it uses "macro," and it's strictly about the preprocessor kind of macros. "Metaprogramming" is also used in the standard, though not as extensively or rigidly (only 8 times in N4950), but both in the specification and colloquially it's more than just slapping consteval on a function.

We don't actually want online communities to get too big, from a users' perspective. After a certain size, they become difficult to maintain any sense of responsibility to the established culture, become targets for coordinated manipulation or misuse and end up requiring constant moderation just to be usable.

But taking venture capital means you can never restrict growth, even if in the end it kills your service.

I'd love to see a Reddit that caps its communities to a thousands or even hundreds. Once that cap is hit, either form a new community or join a waiting list. But it's clear that a hundred passionate users often produces a much better discussion than millions.

Devices to add stickers to packages was a solved problem before food allergy warning labels existed. In the 1980s supermarkets made money adding price stickers to every item of inventory, then changing the prices for sales. Meanwhile the food waste recycler (may not exist in your area, some exclusions apply) needs to remove all of the foil wrappers to the butter before recycling.

There’s a clear winner, unless you’re trying to send some kind of message to the supplier.
Mmm. If you had the right library, might be able to stream it as it’s being created which might help at least with perceived performance, but yeah, that’s a fun one.

This is the reason I initially got on the waitlist to join Bluesky.

11 years ago I made a social media aggregator where users had to have a verified domain to join - think using your domain as username and using you domain to authenticate your social media profiles. My show HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6529523

This probably sounds silly but in the end I didn’t actually use Bluesky because they don’t support emoji domains.
I also got one of these. AFAICT for Linux, we need to wait for kernel 6.12, which is still at the rc stage but should be ready at the end of this month. As a NixOS user, I'm keeping track of this repo [1] for support.

Yep scraping alot of sites, what specifically would you like to know?
Hack is a rather absurd local maxima language, but the journey there makes sense. Circa 2005, PHP was a reasonable choice for quickly iterating on a website. The language was quite amateurish, but it's a web-first language, and its edit-and-refresh development loop was better than most languages.

At some point, two things happened. Any change to code, especially heavily used code, became risky because of limited typechecking, and the scale of the site was large enough that running Zend got expensive. Compiling to C++ with HipHop addressed immediate performance concerns, but it's a fragile solution. At some point, you're faced with either rewriting the codebase in something sensible or migrating in-place with a language fork and a custom VM. Facebook opted to pay the ongoing tax of maintaining its own language and having a team that supports it.

An in-house language gives you freedoms like being able to make language changes driven by business needs like privacy, but the language lacks scrutiny of larger community. Some features are half-baked, and it's missing features most popular languages have.

PHP 7 cherry picked enough Hack and HHVM features that it's better to stick with PHP. There's no broader support for the language, and it's not clear HHVM is still faster.

The next time you're involved in language bikeshedding, remember that Facebook went all-in on PHP, and it was a good-enough choice.
When I was a kid we’d be spending a whole day playing in snow. When we’d come home in the evening with ice on the shoes, hair and cold hands and feet - but not as bad as getting real frost bites - would have a little warm up. My grandmother taught me to wash my hands with cold water at first then gradually add warm water. I still remeber cold water felt warm on frozen hands. Also many times when my hands were cold I’d make some snowballs, feel cold for a few seconds then my hands would start warming up really fast, like glowing with heat. I think there’s something to it, though being a bit cold and having frostbites is a big difference. I personally never experience any frostbite.
> the Tweet (X? Blurp? What do we call them now?)

They're officially just called "Posts" now. It's a hell of a downgrade from how distinctive the old terms were, no wonder people still call them Tweets.

You really should check your facts on that first statement my friend. Frankly you are dead wrong and should not be spreading this kind of false info, it’s dangerous to minors. Only 24 states have age of consent below 18, and a number of those have restrictions on age gaps between participants. And of those 24 states that don’t come close to covering “the majority” of the population of the United States.
I think efficiency of plants, but that's measure from light to sugar that is a good long term storage material. Solar panels get 20% but you get electricity that is difficult to store.

Some plants have slightly better efficiency https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C4_carbon_fixation but not too much.

I think you linked an article about red algae. I took a look and I think they are counting the efficiency in a strange way to claim "almost 100%". Probably almost 100% in the first step of capturing the energy, not in the complete process to transform it into something useful. (And probably using only monochrome light, but I can't understand the details)

Is butter actually expensive enough for that to be cost-effective?
What software do you add your family use on these machines? Do you need or use parental controls? Gaming?
> A packaging mistake for a single truckload of butter is now a signal of something "fucking wrong" with a company who otherwise has a pretty stellar track record of consumer protection?

Honestly? Yeah.

There are a lot of little things you need to make sure happen correctly to produce and ship safe food that's fit for human consumption. If the QA for the package redesign failed to notice that the legally-mandated allergen field is missing from the package, what else is company QA letting slip through the cracks? [0]

Also, I don't know if you've ever worked for a company that had a management change that destroyed the company's ability to continue to ship a proper product, but I definitely have, as have folks I've known. By the time folks outside the company notice, the rot is usually bad, bad, bad.

Additionally: Remember that "a signal of something fucking wrong" is not the same as "something is fucking wrong". People and organizations are known to send out worrisome signals and still be fundamentally sound. But in the area of food safety, it's the job of the FDA to notice these worrisome signals and go look to see if something is currently fucking wrong with the company.

[0] Or if those labels are manually applied, the same question holds.

Is there vision tests similar to audio tests where they figure out one's individual responses to different wavelengths of light? Super neat.

It would be cool to simulate different people's vision, not just colour-blindness but the more subtle variations.
Filtering 'political tweets' on Mastodon is fine by me.

It's expecting that behavior as the default which I take issue with, and denying the specter of rising fascism. (Because yeesh, why care about a year of genocide funded with our own taxes and enabled by our leaders?)

Some people actually do care about what's happening in the world; say, for example, the UN calling out a genocide backed by Western powers with our tax money. I believe they ought to be able to discuss these things without being flagged/shadowbanned/banned etc, especially on decentralized fora.

The major platforms already suppress such discussion. If you want to avoid making custom filters, just stay on those.
This is the third Bluesky submission in the past week or so. My previous comments were heavily downvoted, so I don’t expect it will be any different this time.

Many people are comparing X and Bluesky, but I think this is a mistake. The two platforms shouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence. These are two drastically different platforms. X is a real-time news app, currently holding the #1 spot in the News category on the App Store (e.g., The New York Times is #8). Bluesky, on the other hand, is a social network and the #1 app in the Social Networking category. These are fundamentally different categories, so let’s stop treating them as rivals - they’re solving different problems for different audiences.

You will find that even butter often does not have milk in the ingredients list. E.g. Kerrygold: "pasteurized cream, salt"

In this case, the Kirkland's listed "sweet cream" and not milk.
> As I understand it, the Tesla warranty was factored into the purchase price as a way to stabilize the TCO, and has little to do with the physical lifecycle of the lithium cells.
