> Most animals are stronger by weight than humans, so perhaps this isn't as much of an issue for them.

As far as I know, most animals don't have to train to gain muscle mass, they just have it from their nutrition, losing muscle mass is a last resort of their bodies to consume calories during starvation but they will gain that muscle mass back if fed properly. Not so much with humans, we need to constantly use our muscles to signal our bodies they're needed, as an adaptation if those aren't needed we will not be carrying extra muscle mass around.

I might be wrong since the last I read about this was many years ago but it's how I remember it from studies of great apes, big cats, etc.
The idea that Chevron is purposefully building wind farms not to operate them sounds dubious to me at best. My guess is they bungled something up because wind energy isn't their core competency.

Much more likely there is a room at Chevron where someone said "Wait who the fuck was responsible for negotiating that contract?" than "We're going to spend a bunch of money building a windfarm in Casper in order to get some small amount of good publicity, and the purposefully not operate it ?to make wind energy look bad?"
I'm surprised to see so much confusion here. Google pays some kind of "market rate" to Apple to be default search engine on iOS, this change'll first and foremost result in them paying similarly to be default in Chrome.

Hopefully through that Google will end up with less influence to force anti-consumer decisions, like the recent adblock downgrades, on Chrome.

Fair enough, right? Of course all this is assuming decent oversight by DOJ, not allowing the sale to someone with monopolistic incentives of their own, e.g. Microsoft.

Reading between the lines/Translation:
We need ~50% less IT operations staff, we can have LLMs do this instead.

The LLMs are coming for your white-collar work, and this is likely driving the white-collar recession.

Here's a thought, incident response is one of the areas where entry-level SA's sharpen their teeth and skills to become able to complete intermediate and senior level roles.

What happens when all the low-hanging fruit, the entry-level jobs are now replaced by LLMs and there is no short-term business need to hire such people.

No jobs means labor pool finds something else outside their profession, or they sit around on food stamps homeless, agitating with the homies, until a critical mass occurs.

Your intermediate and senior people naturally age and die, so how do you find replacements for them? ...

When there is no economic advantage for developing a skill set, no one goes into the field, it acts like a sieve, and eventually the skills involved becomes lost knowledge. Those that have the skills that are unable to find work seek work elsewhere, and rarely return. They were burned severely, enough times that it becomes a bad bet to try again in that field.

These things aren't rocket science, and yet people seem to be so slothful or greedy, that they are unable to see or act to prevent what naturally happens next.

When people can't find jobs to feed themselves or loved ones, where the only future which has been imposed on them is slavery or death, these people will organize and do the only thing they can once they are desperate enough; and that is violence. These same dynamics were present in the decades leading up to 1776, according to historic record.

It is so extremely short-sighted.
Can you provide some examples?

Because when I compare between classes, there is a clear trend in the data you provided where large four-door cars have higher rates of bodily injury than midsize cars, and it goes down again for small and mini.

And it makes sense: in a collision, the heavier vehicle crushes the lighter one.

Am I misreading the data?
> However, in this case, not only do we have an incredible amount of video evidence of war crimes, but we also have a huge catalogue of Israeli politicians explicitly calling for the genocide of Gaza.

I disagree that there is an incredible amount of video evidence of war crimes that are relevant here.

And I also disagree that there is a huge catalogue of Netanyahu and Gallant making statements that show intent. For the purposes of these warrants, it doesn't matter what other Israeli politicians have said as I understand it.
>This creates a single point of failure, trading robustness for efficiency. There's nothing wrong with that, but software/ops might have to accommodate by making the opposite tradeoff.

I'll happily take a single high qualify power supply (which may have internal redundancy FWIW) over 70 much more cheaply made power supplies that stress other parts of my datacenter via sheer inefficiency, and also costs more in aggregate. Nobody drives down the highway with 10 spare tires for their SUV.

> Here, we show that victims suffer from greater increases in low-grade systemic inflammation from childhood to young adulthood than are seen in others. In contrast, bullies showed lower increases in inflammation into adulthood compared with those uninvolved in bullying

> Conclusion

>Being bullied is known to have adverse effects on psychological and social development, but it is increasingly being recast as similar to family maltreatment in its potential to disrupt both mental and physical functioning across the lifespan (1, 2). In contrast, bullies experience few downsides and reap biological advantages of increased social status. Social status and disruptions to one’s status may play a central role in physical health functioning through effects on chronic low-grade inflammation, and these effects may persist for decades. Our findings suggest that this mechanism may be a key target for efforts to reduce risk for a bevy of age-related diseases and to promote optimal psychological and physical health functioning.

The literature about this is immense. There are even a couple of studies with monozygotic twins which are notoriously difficult to do.
It usually centers on whether changing requirements are due to poor planning or not?

I don't necessarily think it is, and I believe it's easily fixed by keeping the reason (expected value) for anything close to any requirements being passed down to engineering teams.
AI's computing gap: academics lack access to powerful chips needed for research
It won't, for the same reason - whenever you're proposing a conspiracy theory, you have to explain what stops every person involved from leaking the conspiracy, whether on purpose or by accident. This gets superlinearly harder with number of people involved, and extra hard when there are incentives rewarding leaks (and leaking OpenAI secrets has some strong potential rewards).

Occam's test applies to the full proposal, including the explanation of things outlined above.

> These drugs are turning into a band-aid on the fact that it's more profitable to sell addictive, high-calorie foods in the US than foods that promote long-term health.

What I don't understand about these drugs is:

Ok, you are taking the medicine to lose weight, but are you eating the same shit as before in the process?

The answer is always "pfft no, I am going to eat healthier"

So why don't you just eat healthier now?

Unreasonable stakeholders will absolutely hold you accountable to not meeting a schedule even when they're constantly changing requirements. And they can and will throw you under the bus for it.

You are right though, that a decent team that does decent planning should be fairly accurate much of the time. And there are project management techniques to handle the remaining uncertainty.

The even more amazing thing is that it's still actively played. There is a full server every Friday night (sometimes also in Saturday/Sunday). It has got some quite dedicated fan base and I've never seen such dedication in another old multiplayer game.
> What evidence do you have that vehicles over a certain size and power are inherently more dangerous?

It's not the vehicle but the entitled douche bag who thinks they own the road while wildly speeding around, cutting people off and weaving around traffic like a drunkard. No one needs that power save for insecure men.
The bus bar itself is an SPoF, but it's also just dumb copper. That doesn't mean that nothing can go wrong, but it's pretty far into the tail of the failure distribution.

The power shelf that keeps the busbar fed will have multiple rectifiers, often with at least N+1 redundancy so that you can have a rectifier fail and swap it without the rack itself failing. Similar things apply to the battery shelves.

My personal blog inspired by Medium.
That is a bit of a minefield, I agree…

The way around this, as a developer, is URL-safe-base64 encode the value. Then you have a bytes primitive & you can use whatever inner representation your heart desires. But the article does also note that you're not 100% in control, either. (Nor should you be, it is a user agent, after all.)

I do wish more UAs opted for "obey the standard" over "bytes and an prayer on the wire". Those 400 responses in the screenshots … they're a conforming response. This would have been better if headers had been either UTF-8 from the start (but there are causality problems with that) or ASCII and then permitted to be UTF-8 later (but that could still cause issues since you're making values that were illegal, legal).
This isn't even remotely close. Unless all 32 servers have redundant AC power feeds present, you've traded one single point of failure for another single point of failure.

In the event that all 32 servers had redundant AC power feeds, you could just install a pair of redundant DC power feeds.
Safari is a lot more strict about cookies than Chromium or Firefox, it will straight up drop or ignore (or, occasionally, truncate) cookies that the other two will happily accept.

I had hoped when writing this article that Google would look at Safari and see that it was always strict about feel comfortable about changing to be the same. But doing so now would unfortunately break too many things for too many users.
The problem other distros have is they provide no protection for initrd, which mostly makes LUKS a waste of time; if you can compromise initrd, you own the OS.

I'm also not a php developer, but I agree. This seems like a huge footgun.

I've never been a fan of this kind of magic, and I wonder how other languages deal with this case.
The tunable actuation/analog sensitivity are really cool, but I was trying to look at it from the perspective of a programmer. The tunable actuation might be nice if you have a very particular way of touch-typing, but I (and most people I know) fully depress keys as they type, or at least they come very close to it. I personally use low profile Gateron Browns in my Keychron K3 Pro, and I bottom them out on nearly every keystroke.

And sure, the analog travel sensing is really cool too. You could make a keyboard do a lot of things with that, but as a dev I can't think of something I'd want my keyboard to do with that feature.

One thing I do find exciting is the potential longevity of a keyswitch with no electrical contacts except for the ones that connect the key to the circuit board.
After reading the article I am more convinced it does reasoning. The base model's reasoning capabilities are partly hidden by the chatty derived model's logic.
Just want to point out that location names are used for codenames because they cannot be trademarked

Big tech uses them instead of wasting legal time and money having to clear a new name that's temporary or non-public.

Changing the name to Tokio removes this benefit and still leaves it disconnected from its purpose.
The distinction between labor time and calendar time is an important one! 40 hours of dedicated effort is great, but most people parse that as "1 week" when in reality the available people may only be able to get 10 or 20 hours in a week due to other demands, or it's 38 hours of dedicated time that gets done in 1 week but the 2 hours of security and legal reviews take a month of waiting to finally get completed.

It's not as if life was particularly pleasant there before the war. Israel was already before restricting the maximally attainable quality of life. Or as if the Palestinian control group in the West Bank who had chosen cooperation was faring any better.

Also that stuff is exactly what international humanitarian law is supposed to prevent. Obligations of the occupying power and all.
PHP 8.4 Improvements when working with modern Firebird versions
So far, I've only generated the graph for Europe(using Graphhopper). Even just Europe required 128GB of RAM and around 10 hours of computation time (the entire planet would likely need 384GB of RAM). I plan to add North America on a separate Docker container soon though. I started with Europe because I’m familiar with some of the bike trails here, which makes it easier for me to check if the routing makes sense.
We don’t have such annual training on communication. We do have annual trainings (including on ethics and safety typically), but none related to speech or an insurance company. The only recurring instruction we receive about speech is to “speak up” if we see anything wrong.

You’re probably thinking of a particular company that I don’t have experience with, but it’s not applicable to the whole industry.

Everyone doesn't have to know everything.

The Demon Core meme, for instance is getting pretty lamestream, no longer some shared affinity.

It's nice even mommyTok is doing it I guess, but we are one step away from a CNN story, then it's definitely over.

So for a brief moment make the most of the fact your smarter than "knowyourmeme"
Just to stick up for the Israeli software developer POV - most Israelis would completely disagree with you that genocide is happening in Gaza.

You might think they're wrong - that's valid. But it's not that they're openly supporting genocide - they disagree with you on whether or not it is happening, which is a big difference.
PHP ORMs and ORMs in general are notoriously hard to maintain. I've written hundreds of thousands of lines of PHP, I'm speaking from experience.
I needed to create a table with a date field in PostgreSQL formatted as YYYY-MM-DD-HH. Vultr’s managed PostgreSQL service helped me with a simple solution. I used the TIMESTAMP data type for storing date and time, then formatted it with TO_CHAR() to get the desired output:

Vultr made the whole process smooth and easy, letting me focus on my app instead of the technical setup!
CREATE TABLE events (
id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
event_time TIMESTAMP
);

SELECT TO_CHAR(event_time, 'YYYY-MM-DD-HH24') AS formatted_event_time
FROM events;

I don't think anyone knows for sure, but I think the prevailing theory is it being a survival mechanism.

When our ancestors faced famine, it makes sense for the body to shed as much muscle as possible, since this reduces the metabolic rate in the medium-long term.

Muscle is more metabolically active than fat. Although fat can be used up for energy more readily, but muscle takes more energy to maintain. Burning fat just to maintain (unnecessary) muscle doesn't make sense in terms of survival.
American propaganda likes to paint the nuclear scientists as heroes, but I think the younger generation likely views them much more as "evil scientists who worked to create apocalyptic weapons" and feel comfortable with a lack of empathy for them harming themselves in the process.
> When American friends and family ask me what I love most about living here and I say "the bike infrastructure," reactions range from a polite smile to eye-rolling.

I get the same eye rolling when people ask me what I like most living in the centre of a major urban metropolis (Toronto) and I respond with "not having to own a car". Having everything (work, my daughter's school, groceries, cultural amenities, etc) within a 15 minute walk is fantastic and there's ample car-sharing for occasions where a car is required. People think I'm this eccentric hippie or something when I just don't want to spend time in a car on a daily basis.
> There's nothing wrong with submitting a comment saying just "Thanks."

I'm pretty sure they meant saying "Thanks." in response to another comment, not as a top-level comment reply to a Show HN.

Kind of like how you wouldn't bust into a restaurant and say a loud "Thanks." to the entire room, despite it being perfectly fine to say thanks in a restaurant.

I might be wrong but I think if you (@faangguy) manage to create a life that makes you feel happy, the women will notice that you're happy, and that goes a long way. But you'll also need to be somewhere where there are some women around? (obviously) If you're in a FAANG in SF maybe for the moment that's not so easy

Kind of a straw man.. yes plenty of people have cars that are too big.

But a TON of people have vehicles in the MachE/ModelY crossover footprint. Look at how every brand has 3 cars that size and they all look the same.

All of these, including your old accord are bigger than a Prius.
My Hive thermostat does exactly that.

Oh, and it turns off when the window opens, and back on when the window shuts. So my wife deciding she wants it cold doesn't cost us a fortune.

This is the kind of thing that would be pretty straight-forward in Julia, I imagine. Independent libraries for uncertainties and units could easily be remixed together if the unitful quantity accepts any number type, and the uncertainties just define a new number type. Multiple dispatch should generate consistent downstream behavior "for free".
And the fact that it is a bad idea (I agree, it is!) says a lot about the trust we have in the government and their competency, sadly…

Yes, I agree it doesn't always happen, but in aggregate it typically does. For example, Borders didn't get on with the digital trend, but B&N did. I agree that any one oil company might not be forward-looking enough, but overall, there will those that do and those that don't, and you can't assume any one company is in the latter group just because of their current industry.
A method is supposed to be an action and a property is supposed to be data. So I don't see the desire to disguise setting data as a "setting method" rather than using the syntax of assignment.
I've started recording loom videos of myself walking through features.

I agree that the points you raise are important to realise and affect delivery duration significantly.

I, however, disagree with that approach to managing delivery: if you tie in expected value with deliverables, you empower and enable engineering teams to smartly cut scope and deliver in shorter amount of time the biggest chunk of the value.

It's usually only described as "cutting scope", but it requires real creativity and smarts on the engineering team (they can best tell what's feasible in remaining time, when they have tackled all the unknown unknowns you bring up) to do that in a way that still brings the most of the original value. If you move this to your "renegotiation" step, it becomes too slow and hurts delivery as well.
