When Servo was still managed by Mozilla, they were able to merge some components incrementally into the Firefox. Most famously, Stylo and WebRender were first developed in Servo. They could have kept Servo for experimentation and merge parts incrementally.

It may also have enabled better embedding supporting which is a weak point of Firefox compared to Chrome; which is a long-term solution to remain relevant.
I'm sorry, but this hand wringing is just a joke.

Farm work ain't great. It's repetitive and rarely if ever ergonomic. There's plenty of reasons anybody who can do something more skilled or better paid does. But it's way less taxing than just about any job where the tool used is a shovel or sledgehammer.

Yeah, if your frame of reference is skilled work or office work it all sucks but there's very much degrees to it.
I'm in my mid 40s and it's the same problem for me. I can push myself through an all-nighter if the music is really great, but most of the time it isn't, and then it's just tedious waiting around for something better to come on when I know I could go home and buy a couple dozen new tracks on Bandcamp that are exactly to my taste. Sure I wouldn't get to listen to them on a banging sound system or stomp my heart out amongst a couple hundred like-minded nutters, but if I'm honest half the time I'm going wild on the dancefloor these days the rest of the crowd is waiting around for a different style of music than the one I'm particularly into so it's not an especially communal event anyway.

I'm not sure if I have gotten more picky about music than I used to be - I certainly remember getting into ridiculous arguments over sub-sub-subgenres back in the 90s - but when I was younger perhaps I was simply a bit more tolerant of dancing to music that wasn't exactly what I liked? Or maybe I was so full of energy and excitement about going out in the first place that the music wasn't as make-or-break for me back then?

Last year I settled into a routine of going to a small outdoor rave once every few months or so, ones with daytime components so I could join at dawn. The music played at outdoor parties in my area is not exactly my favorite, but at least it's still electronic and because it's less exhausting to dance during my normal waking hours I don't mind so much.

I definitely miss being so sucked into the vibe that I can't pull myself away, but I've just accepted that that's not something you can really get everywhere all the time. In certain cities, at certain times, when there's a big enough local crew whose tastes exactly align with yours, you'll have a magical few years, but then the music changes, the people change, and it'll be another dry spell. I like to think, though, that my dry spells are someone else's peak years. Maybe it all balances out in the end?

That’s a correct assessment of the situation, but the lifetime of the cables is not satisfactory with my expectations. I do eventually buy a new cable every six months, but I really just wish there was a USB-C port with a rubber plug in it.
The issue w/ competitive gaming (League of Legends, Deadlock, Overwatch) is if you take advantage of your prerogative and cheat, you make the experience worse for everyone else; and it hurts the game itself.

The sad state of existence is that if you want to run a multiplayer game, you need to do shitty/controlling things or the game will turn unplayable as soon as it starts to become popular.

Games like BG3 however - Who cares if someone is cheating? Just stick to those (great) games if you want more control
No worries! Our experience is that the hardest part (and it's not trivial) is associating the "anonymous user ID" to the newly logged-in user. Segment has an identify() function (I think Mixpanel has something similar), where you link the aliases, which then makes the reporting work.

I've not tried June, so I can't say for sure, but it's a pretty common feature for product analytics. I'll be surprised if it's not possible.

Interesting. My experience in NYC even with folks in the 20s is they prefer going out BEFORE it gets super late, with the super late nights only happening for shows (where the DJ/main act doesn't come on till 1:30 AM).

I've also anecdotally seen more day parties which might be driven by demand from the former rave crews who are aging out.
GEOS - and especially GeoWrite - on the Commodore 64 was a revelation. It was wysiwyg (albeit at fixed zoom) and used bitmap fonts which printed just about acceptably on my Citizen 120D 9-pin dot matrix.

The only thing it couldn't do was shingling to increase the apparent resolution/density of the prints.
NRC, Nuclear Reduction Commision.

Its crazy that before the NRC 100s of reactors were built, close to 0. And this isn't an accident.

> France is leading the way with nuclear, everyone should copy them.

Questionable. Sadly, the generation that build the nuclear fleet is gone, retired. The next generation of French statesmen fully bought in to the anti-nuclear believe and they viewed the nuclear fleet as a burden.

But they were so blessed that they were able to treat the nuclear fleet like 'the giving tree'. Doing all sorts of completely idiotic policies. The list is to long to get into here, but a few nice examples are.:

- Forcing the operator to sell baseload at incredibly cheap rates to fossil fuel companies and then when they realised that they actually needed it, the operator had to buy it back at market prices.

- Forcing them to invest in solar, and intermittent solar in the network actually makes the baseloads economics worse. So basically forcing them to make investments that don't make any economics sense what so ever.

- Voting the completely replace nuclear reactors but not actually having any even remotely serious plan to achieve it. Then to argue that plants don't need to be maintained as they are gone shut off anyway. Only to then realise that they had no fucking plan what so ever and that their delusional believe that solar/wind would being showing up out of know-where didn't come true. Only for this to lead to a huge maintenance backlog, taking many plants offline during a large energy crisis in Europe.

And French plants are notorious for low operational efficiency, ironically Germany was incredibly good at operating nuclear plants. The US in places is also really good.

So yes, France did something brilliant in the 70-80s but the next generation is basically just cursing on those accomplishments. Its beyond sad.

Why something like the Superphénix (or use a more standard design) couldn't have been branded 'European Standard Reactor' and a few iteration financed by EU budgets for nations in desperate need like Poland. No but at least they have a whole bunch of highways.

Hey all, I was recently let go from my job as a data scientist. I've got around 2 YOE in data and 4 YOE in SWE. Ideally looking for work as a data scientist or MLE, but open to data engineering and general SWE as well.

My situation with remote work is a bit complicated at the moment, but I'd most prefer short-term hybrid work in NYC or full-time in California either starting in the summer or working remote until then.

It's kind of natural that you need to progress from a magma/semi group monoid (algebra) to functors/applicative/monad (category theory)

Would it help if you defined a monoid as a combination of 3 things?

1) a data type A

2) an associative operation on A

3) an identity (or empty element)

Then you can correctly say that the string data type, admits an associative operation (concatenation of two strings) and you have an empty element (the empty string).

I think too many people talking about functional programming really overblow how much you need to understand about mathematics, they serious do.

Think about my definition and you can quickly understand that there are many monoid instances for numbers (with the associative operation being addition to get a monoid or multiplication to get another monoid instance).

There's infinite numbers of monoid instances for various data types.

Haskell has several shortcomings from what I remember and Haskell developers incorrectly assume that you can only have one semi group (or equality, monoid, etc) instances for your data type because they believe they are the closest to math, but in reality their language has its own limitations.
So far for me this has worked well:

1. Choose a song you like and find out what chords are needed to play it.

2. Learn those chords and practice playing the song.

Use a keyboard with weighted keys for best results.

I'm pretty sure it will reach a few people that are just at that point where they don't understand a monad, but are ready to and just need an explanation that clicks. And it will completely ruin their understanding of both monads and currying, because it's wrong.

DKIM is not an encryption algorithm. It is a standard for embedding and validating signatures in email headers.

Unfortunately DKIM only supports rsa-sha1 and rsa-sha256 signatures (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6376/#section-3.3). It'd be nice to see DKIM get revised to allow Ed25519 or similar signatures.

Probably a bunch of factors...

Tier 1 city RE prices have made live entertainment venues harder to run profitably.

GenZ studies have found a lower participation in "risky behavior" which late night clubbing may or not be considered.

Mobile internet & smartphones seem to be killing all forms of live in person interaction.

And finally electronic music of various forms used to be a niche, and now it's mainstream. In the 90s/00s my consumption of electronic music was mp3 downloads of BBC late night recordings. Now pop is electronic, electronic is pop, it's all on the radio, it's unavoidable.
Excess calories are bad for you, no matter what form they come in.
One big change is that they got better and much more organized. I go to an annual event with a few hundred of my friends and family. We rent a lodge in a national forest, set up an enormous sound system, and dance for 3 days around some very confused deer. There are food trucks and coffee bars and dozens of portapotties scattered around, plus daytime poolside sets while we swim around and listen to 100dB house.

We grayvers still like to have fun, just more comfortably. We have work next week, you know.
I can't even count how many times I've seen literal video evidence for a story on X that was from totally unrelated incident but claimed to be proof of a completely made up thing that was happening right now.
That comparison feels like it's missing a "spinal cord injuries" qualifier, because it doesn't pass the smell test for "all injuries". Roughly a million kids play high school football every year, which is 20% of the population of BC. Many of those will have some small injury over the course of the year from football.

It makes more sense for spinal injuries, but even that doesn't make mountain biking more dangerous than football (spinal injuries are relatively rare in football, but head trauma is common).
I don't think this is entirely true. Most people are normal, but if I'm a woman dating a young conservative man. That conservative has a non-zero chance to actually believe shit like "your body, my choice." Probably don't want to be dating that guy. It's not a guarantee, but a danger signal.
I'm not in the club or rave scene - practically the opposite - but it astounds me that the FT thought they could draw useful conclusions about an underground scene by analyzing publicly-posted events on a site named Resident Advisor.
The competitors at the consumer-facing super app level (with mini programs of varying awkwardness) include Meituan, XiaoHongShu, and to an extent, Toutiao, JD.com, and Baidu. But you don't need those gardens as a publisher if you're on Android--ironically because Google services are banned, there are over a dozen app stores to competing to fill the void. Compare that with the western duopoly of Apple App Store and Google Play.
So do I, but lately I seem to forget more every day than I learn.
No structural gear for 2 of the 3 of us. I had civilian gear on other than my EMS jacket which despite not being "proper outdoor gear" is insanly warm. Thankfully I had also layered a merino wool base layer and my RAB thinsulate-y puffer jacket under that, REI expedition gloves and two layers of hats. One of my colleagues did not do so well, and was really inadequately dressed given that we had to strip down a bit to keep her warm. The 3rd person on the team wore his structural jacket and wildland helmet.

The UTV1 crew had their structural jackets on, but otherwise civilian.

You're answering your own question here:

Power is imported when it is cheaper to import it than produce it ourselves

After shutting down the remaining 6, then 3 nuclear power plants it became cheaper to import power from Sweden - which used to be blessed with relatively low electricity prices due to to the large hydro and (diminishing) nuclear generation capacity - than to generate it in Germany. While this might have been positive for Germany and for electricity producers in Sweden it is a definite negative for electricity users in Sweden who have seen their prices skyrocket. As to the direct effects of the nuclear shutdown there's quite a bit written, e.g.

https://www.cleanenergywire.org/factsheets/qa-germanys-nucle...

4) What changed in electricity imports and why?

For the first time in many years, Germany became a net electricity importer in 2023. The trade balance for electricity switched from 21 TWh of exports to 22 TWh of imports in the same period. Imports have risen despite sufficient plant capacity in Germany to cover domestic demand entirely. In March 2024, the country announced the shutdown of seven more coal-fired power plant units after the winter, as they are no longer needed to guarantee supply security.

This leaves aside other costs involved with the nuclear phase-out [1] and the knock-on effects of the increased energy prices as well as lower guaranteed availability which is part of the cause of German deindustrialisation. If you doubt whether this actually happening I invite you to peruse a search engine of your preference on the subject which is more effective than me linking to a number of articles from many different sources.

By what metric is Apple poorly run other than some HN commenters personal opinions about their products?
It just looks better. Text specifically will look much crispier in a 4K 27" monitor at 150% scaling than a 1440p 27" monitor at 100% scale, despite both having the same working space.
It's even easier if you just remember that left and right in fold means left associative and right associative application of the function.
Yeah because public liability insurance has spiked beyond tolerable levels for post-watershed events, and the licensing board and constabulary are in lock-step for the granting of late licenses to bars and nightclubs to operate past 11.30pm

They use the most spurious justifications regarding newer commercial tenants and antisocial behaviour to deny the legacy cultural tenets their ability to operate as a late-night business from a licensing perspective.
Wren: Classy Little Scripting Language
I assert this without evidence, but I would highly suspect club attendance numbers and rave attendance numbers to be strongly correlated.
At least here in Germany, NIMBYs and their foot-soldiers aka team 1312 is very much to blame, next to gentrification.

Clubs in cities that have existed for decades get yeeted out of their rental contracts as there is no renter protection for commercial rental contracts - once it expires or gets terminated under the provisions of the contract (usually because some hipster shithole is willing to pay even more money), that's it. Others lose their license because people moving from the countryside can't cope with the noise and call the police all the time.

Clubs in rural areas almost don't exist anymore because of rural flight eliminating a lot of the customer base and what remains gets taken off the road by DUI enforcement.

That leaves illegal outdoor raves, and team 1312 has been aggressively beating down on these even over a decade ago when I was the tech guy for a local rave group. It's not made easier by the fact that there will always be some dumbasses dragging their minor siblings with them and other people not caring whom they sell MDMA and whatnot to, so you'll inevitably get into trouble for that as well.
Ah nice, I hadn't tried this but it makes sense!
This article appears to be a defense of priesthoods and the traditional media:

Your position is really "fuck disabled people", really?

Your ever seen a blind person try to use the internet? You ever seen a person with essential tremors try to use their phone?

Go and educate yourself a little.

These standards are all built from the experiences of users who were unable to access things and they benefit way more than the 15% of people who have disabilities. Ever used closed captioning, automatic doors, or curb cuts? Those things all started as accessibility features.
Ask HN: What do you use as your "main" source of storage?
It should achieve the same level, yes. It's not exactly described what could attack it. Right now it seems that 2048-bits would be the last allowed step and they're not going to push people past 2048, they want to phase out RSA in general.
I agree. Even within those types there are some types of rides that are massively different.

In MTB you have XC (cross country) which can be more about distance and grit. These bikes are lighter and have less suspension because you don't typically do a 10 foot drop on one.

Enduro racing is what I think of as similar to skiing or snowboarding. You can go do the green/blue/black at a resort. You can also do the equivalent of taking a helicopter to the top of a crazy mountain pass and jump out. Then there is park stuff. Snowboarders might hop into a rail in the park. Mountain bikers might ride a wooden feature.

The point being it's important to distinguish whether you're talking about the danger of taking a flowy green downhill or the danger of going off a 20 foot drop or the danger of hopping onto a narrow piece of Park stuff that's 30 feet off the ground.

Because the injury rate of people on double black diamond runs in BC with 30 foot tall one foot wide wooden features is just not relevant to me because I am not riding that kind of terrain.

I good source for flint-knapping supplies / knowledge if anyone is interested.
Over the years the geometry has slackened, size of wheels length of wheelbase and size of cockpit have increased. Suspension has also evolved dramatically. This makes the bikes much safer and more stable at higher speeds. The bigger cockpit area has less responsive pitch and yaw, giving riders an increased sense of security. So the bikes are "safer". But this just means riders are going faster. The style of trail has evolved with this as well. Well manicured, wide bike park trails have got much faster with massive jumps. These types of trails are generally easier to ride than slower, more technical terrain and give maximum thrill at higher velocities. Amateur riders today are doing stuff even the best pro's could barely attempt 25 years ago.

I would like to see complimentary stats for age and years of experience riding, as it wouldn't surprise me if a lot of these folks are starting downhill as a midlife crisis and the modern bikes make them feel invincible. Everyone trying to do this sport at a higher level is going to get hurt at some point though.

They mention the costs, but what about the overall benefits to health, wellbeing and the economy.

Downhill is my main passion in life, it's so much more than just a thrill, and it's such a privilege to be able to enjoy it.
I don't think it's a dumb take at all. It makes sense to me, especially together with housing unaffordability, which affects the disposable income of young people the worst.
because everyone recommending those things work on both sides.

they recommend 2048 and use 4096 themselves because if they need to ever break your 2048 it's less bad than if you were recommended to use 4069. wink wink

same with everyone recommending ed22519 when ed448 is as good and as fast to encode. but all the arguments point to encode speed from a Bernstein paper which used a pentium iii!
