On the other hand, a business's mere existence doesn't entitle them to somebody else's market. If the people of Germany want to require social media businesses to make this data available to researchers, then that is simply the law of the land. It's really not up for X/Meta/etc to decide the rules of the market, nor do they have a "right" to do business without following said rules.

It would be one thing if the rules themselves were immoral or unreasonable, but I don't think this has anything to do with the rights of social media companies.
> What is a large online platform?

The text actually says "very large online platform" which is defined in 33(1):

> This Section shall apply to online platforms and online search engines which have a number of average monthly active recipients of the service in the Union equal to or higher than 45 million, and which are designated as very large online platforms or very large online search engines pursuant to paragraph 4.

Paragraph 4 just reiterates that. Paragraph 3 gives scope for adjustment:

> In such a case, it shall adjust the number so that it corresponds to 10 % of the Union’s population in the year in which it adopts the delegated act, rounded up or down to allow the number to be expressed in millions.

Basically "very large" -> 10% of the EU population. I'm not a lawyer, though; there may well be specific legal shenanigans going on but at first blush, it doesn't look like it.
I think this article is about a 4th
While the US does have a written Constitution that explicitly limits government power (notably in the Bill of Rights), many other countries also have codified documents or legal frameworks that protect citizens from government overreach.

For example, Germany's Basic Law (Grundgesetz) was created after World War II to ensure the protection of human rights, including freedoms of speech, assembly, and religion, among others. In Canada, the Charter of Rights and Freedoms is part of the Constitution Act of 1982 and guarantees a range of civil liberties. India's Constitution, too, contains an extensive list of fundamental rights that are designed to restrict arbitrary government action, such as the rights to equality, freedom of expression, and personal liberty. South Africa's Constitution is also highly regarded for its strong emphasis on human rights protections.

Even in the United Kingdom, where there is no single written constitution in the US sense, many rights are protected by statutes (such as the Human Rights Act 1998) and established common law principles that limit government power.

Many democracies enshrine rights in law, reflecting the widely accepted idea that such rights are inherent and must be protected against undue governmental interference, rather than merely being granted as privileges.

You could push it to 100hz, MAYBE 200hz at most. Higher than that, transmission losses due to skin effect would make it a bad idea. Also generator motors would require too high RPM.

240v is a good middle ground for safety and power.
AI definitely came first to mind, but it really fits the broader ethos of modern Big Tech. They claim to offer "innovation," "productivity," "connection," and all those good things. But they design their products for self-serving purposes. They don't offer tools that only serve one master: the user.
And I said that was my experience that liens often crop up and the scale of these were not out of the norm especially on the project size and timeline. After all the project is actively being used and some of these are not purely new construction related. Boo.

Yes, that plan was ridiculous. A highly paid worker living efficiently in a small condominium would be heavily penalized. Meanwhile someone living in a McMansion with a lower salary would effectively have a lower bill per kWh.

Ask HN: Who Uses SDKs for Unity/Unreal/Godot?
My co-founder and I have been working on SDK generators for application APIs, and we recently discovered that SDKs also exist in the game dev world. Honestly its probably dumb that we didnt know this, but we had never even considered the space so it was quite a blind spot
So I have two questions:
1. For game devs: how common is it to use an SDK for Godot/Unity/Unreal/other, and what is that experience like?
2. To the SDK devs: what is the ecosystem/DX like for building game engine SDKs?
The closest I've ever gotten to game dev was making a flash platforming game 10 years ago, so any insight is super appreciated.

how do you get biased samples from a fair coin? (say, 0.3)

(this one has less wow, i guess)

1. You take a string of fair samples 0101011101010
2. you split it into chunks of 3 (8 possibilities, so each one is 0.125 chance)
3. 000, 001, 010 -> 1, and all the rest is 0, which will get 0.275 chance

Any better approaches?

I'm imagining:

1. User defines a "multi-location" spec, like "MyFastFood" as "Having [2] or more of [Fast Food] excluding [Taco Bell,]"

2. User defines a requirement for their heat map which references the multi-location, ex: "Within [30 minutes] to [walk] to [MyFastFood]"

3. Within the context of a particular [user's requirement] and broad [city/town/region], a 2D area/gradient can be generated, and cached for a rather considerable period given how slowly businesses open/close.

Granted, that's the ambitious version. A simpler one would be to not support "at least X", and to combine the multi-location and the distance-rules all together into a single condition.

Replacing a system function is a quick and easy hammer but not great for maintenance. It's not clear that calls to Math.random() are now actually going to an npm, and if someone deletes that seedrandom line it's not clear that calls to Math.random() are now not actually going to an npm.

For new/clean code it's better to just import a seeded random function for clarity.

There were plenty of Dale Gribbles in the world before social media. Movies and books were full of conspiracy stuff (see "Enemy of the State" from 1998), and the public believed lots of them to varying degrees.

JSTOR was explicitly a library of public domain works, consolidated in a single place so that academic libraries could access those papers that nobody had an interest in distributing anymore.

It recently added a bunch of copyrighted journals. It didn't have any of those at the time.
Yes, it was harder to prove or disprove a claim when information was not as readily accessible as it is today. For the same reason, the likelihood of even becoming aware of any "fringe theories" without digital communication was much lower. So, overall I would say they are more pervasive today.

Has the CPUC forced such a sale before? Functionally, if PG&E can just safely gauge what's likely to be out of reach for each city, they can name a price detached from reality and be confident of maintaining their stranglehold.
Papers are interesting, but usually much less accessible. There is nothing inherently wrong with the idea of scientific reporting. However, many publishers have historically gone overboard with sensationalism, which spurred a lot of knee-jerk reactionary sentiment.

In this case, I don't think it is really warranted. I thought the article was about as straight forward as one could expect for an introduction of this length, and avoided sensationalism. The only hazard mentioned is that to satellites, which is mentioned as a concern on area of research in the original article (which they actually linked for once!).
The 'egg-fluencers' beating America's crisis
Praxeology goes far beyond rejecting specific empirical studies, it rejects the very concept of learning human behaviour from past data. Or, to quote Mises himself [1]:

> The subject matter of all historical sciences is the past. They cannot teach us anything which would be valid for all human actions, that is, for the future too. The study of history makes a man wise and judicious. But it does not by itself provide any knowledge and skill which could be utilized for handling concrete tasks.

He does make a difference between natural science and history, claiming that natural science carefully isolates elements in order to enable inference. That point would be thoroughly debunked by current AI systems, considering that by his definition these systems would be in the field of history.

Mises makes this distinction between natural science and history, because he can then claim that:

> The experience with which the sciences of human action have to deal is always an experience of complex phenomena. No laboratory experiments can be performed with regard to human action.

And since praxeology isn't simple enough to be criticized by natural science and
that historical sciences have no say about current affairs, he rejects criticism from either field. This line of reasoning may have been tricky to attack in 1920, but it's completely obsolete in 2025.
