Yea which is why I started with “hate to use this argument”. Definitely anecdotal but the kernel of truth is that income and rent going up could be a correlation with a different causation and as many have pointed out in this thread the paper inadequately controls for this.

This is especially dangerous now as papers can be used as hard truths in a misinfo driven information culture to see policy.

As the author of ripgrep, I find this unconvincing personally. Have you ever tried to use `sed` with its `-i` flag?

That's because `-i`, while incredibly useful, is not POSIX. So when you say "POSIX tools," what you actually probably mean is, "superset of POSIX tools."

There is some agreement among the same tools as what the options in the superset actually mean, but not always, as is the case with `sed`.

Compare, for example, what `man grep` says on your system with the POSIX definition: https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/g...

As for whether flags are consistent across different tools, well that's a total crapshoot. `find` uses `-L` for following symlinks while `grep` uses `-R`. Ironically, both `fd` and ripgrep use `-L`, so they are more consistent than the relevant superset-plus-POSIX tooling on at least that front.

To be clear, I mean this somewhat narrowly. Namely

I totally get that. I have a bunch of things I kinda want to learn and do, but just not enough time in the day. But I do still try to make time for these things. I did it for `tmux` (previously, `screen`) and `zsh` (previously, `bash`) and I am very happy I did. Each one cost me about a Sunday and a half, but they've been paying rewards ever since.
But Apple sells more than phones: it also sells keyboards, mice, external trackpads, wireless headphones, and connected watches. Notably, Pebble had some significant issues recently (https://mashable.com/article/pebble-smartwatch-back), because they were not allowed to use the same connectivity functionality of the iPhone that the Apple Watch does. Non-apple headphones don’t and can’t support handoff.

Apple is using their market position in the smartphone space to bolster their products, and hamper competing products, in their other product categories.
University used to prove that you are an upstanding citizen capable of holding public office and doing that well, honestly and fairly. Not destroying stuff and following the law is part of that. That's the reason it's required in Turkey. It was very much part of the fabric of the Roman Empire, and when muslims conquered the eastern roman empire, they didn't conquer it to destroy it, they just wanted its money and power. So they kept everything intact, except the head of government, and they kept the rules about public office requiring a diploma. They went so far as to repress islam, even keeping most of the social progress that "the prophet" swore to destroy (such as the abolishment of slavery, which they mostly kept abolished, at least in Turkey itself) to try to maintain the economic power of the empire, which of course didn't work, but ...

For that purpose it makes 100% sense that good behavior is a requirement of getting a diploma.

That's the reason the Turkey situation is what it is (of course Erdogan has already destroyed public institutions in Turkey, during the Erdogan-orchestrated "coup" against Erdogan). There, it's being used as an electoral weapon, and that's not what's happening in the US.

The American situation is different, but some parts remain. A diploma is not meant to just prove knowledge, it is meant to prove that you can be trusted to (help) organize a particular part of society, and that includes things like behavior standards. A lot of this, such as loyalty oaths (as in multiple, most famously the hippocratic oath, but certainly not just that one), the requirement to be accepted by currently important public servants (e.g. there was a time in Europe that to pass lawyers needed to present themselves to a judge from the supreme court and survive whatever test he wanted). There were globally mandated subjects, as in for every university degree (philosophy, state structure, religion, law, rhetoric). Those were not just mandated courses you had to take, you had to pass. 100% on everything, but fail religion? Tough, no diploma (one famous example of that was Einstein, who made it a sport to fail religion class, and was as an exception granted a diploma anyway)
I'm assuming there's a mixup here with what you take the word "generation" to mean? A generation is generally all the people of a rough age group, so your parents and your spouse's parents are from the same generation. A generation is usually considered to be roughly 25-30 years wide, since that's about when people have kids. I wouldn't really say it's realistic for six generations to attend, that would mean everyone involved had their kids once they turned 18 and the oldest one attending is still 108 years old.

Clinton cut the size of the government considerably – 400k federal workers! – but you probably didn’t hear a lot about it because it was a thoughtful process designed not to impact the ability of the government, and because it undercuts the narrative that Democrats increase spending which is popular in right-wing propaganda. What DOGE is doing locks in as much cost and disruption as possible while minimizing benefits because that’s not the actual goal (scoring political points against what’s perceived as a democratic stronghold).
This is what I'm most interested in. My only hope at the moment is for Apple to revive the iPhone mini -- even if they only refresh it every 3-5 years! I'm so bummed I'll be 'forced' to upgrade from my 12 mini later this year for mostly camera and battery reasons, but oh how I wish an iPhone 17 mini was on the horizon.
You joined the conversation too late. Go up one parent level and see that the ONLY thing I was talking about, was explaining the apparent hypocrisy the OP had identified. The rest of this thread has been unnecessary and irrelevant objections to that point.

Do you think that's where the battle is currently? People debating between Pigs and Bread? Let's avoid the reductive argument otherwise we can never determine right or wrong. Reductive arguments are Thor's hammer for those that want to be amoral at best.

The animals we eat can play fetch, go look up cows. We think chickens are brainless. I don't think a single one of them likes being raised at mass scale in the way we do it. Few can look at it, but so many can debate down to the atom of whether we should stop eating literal matter. I'm not trying to be aggressive specifically towards you, I'm just trying to disturb a lurkers mind that thinks in this way.

No one is going to look at the factory farm videos today, but they will talk their ass off about this topic. I hope everyone makes the pilgrimage to Youtube at the very least to see it every once in awhile.
At residential pricing, storage has just now become cheap and scalable with current LFP tech. $200/kWh for DIY install is not hard, and you get thousands of cycles from that.

Prices are continuing to fall, and we will see where sodium batteries end up on the cost/safety side too as they start to be scaled up over the next few years.

Last century's energy tech is pretty much fully baked and complete; but solar and storage are like computer tech in their cost behavior and always getting cheaper. Places in the developing world will build microgrids that are cheaper than possible with natural gas and big transmission grids.

Nope. 1) Not all of the "EU law" behaves the same way. There are legal acts of the EU that are directly applicable (like most provisions in regulations), there are even some provisions of the primary legislation (treaties) that can be applied directly (i.e. are binding and can be litigated). Of course, there are also legal acts that need implementation (like most provisions of directives).
2) EU law is upheld both by the EU Court of Justice (Luxembourg) and national courts, this depends on the cause of action you have.
3) An "agency" has a special meaning in the EU, that doesn't mean the same thing as a federal agency in the US (as a branch of the executive). There are instead EU institutions and national public bodies (whose exact nomenclature depends on local law) that may also have the task of upholding legislation.
4) No precedents are necessary or used at the EU level. Precedents are more a common law thing, they have an explicit binding nature for courts there. While there are common law countries (Cyprus, Ireland, Malta) with precedents, their precedents have no special place or role in how EU law works, there is no stare decisis how it works in common law.
So, this is a national decision based on German national enforcement reviewed by a German court.

Really? There's not a single political article on the HN front page right now, and even when there is, it's usually just one or two. Most of the rest is about software or tech, with the largest non-tech minority being about nonpolitical things of general interest to the tech community.

Even on the "new" page right now, there's not a single thing about politics, although usually there's a couple, which is a greater rate than happens in calmer times.

Political items may annoy you to the point where that's all you see, but they remain a small minority of what HN has going on. Most of the items are tech-related, and most of those aren't even about AI.

No need to even patch it out. It's relatively easy to change the default, rebuild the world (distros have a flow for this), and restore glibc for the tiny, tiny handful of individual programs that actually rely on glibc debugging APIs.

There's plenty of jurisprudence on these issues for posters here to interact with, but in classic HN style, they will just keep pushing these arguments back and forth based on the headline for this one instance. People just want to play law, not actually interact with it.

I would use Linux if it supported offline installers.

As is, I'll be sticking with heavily tweaked Windows to work with my several HDDs full of old software, and avoid the Linux headaches of repos disappearing, deciding between Snap/Appimage/DEB and general incompatibility with office documents, industrial tooling and Adobe software.

I'll only use Linux where I'm paid to at work. Thanks to Linux Torvalds' terrible software distribution model, I've had to do black magic to work around Anon's deprecation of Debian/Raspbian Stretch on which our industrial network gateways run.

Unfortunately, Python CLI startup time is correlated with how many files the interpreter has to interpret, which usually takes effort to combat, so larger CLIs that have a lot of functionality and thus files always seem to slow down.

The Azure CLI is a good example of this. It's been a year or two since I used it, so maybe it's improved since then, but it used to take a second or two just to run `az --help`, which infuriated me.

If you own a slow Python CLI, look into lazily importing libraries instead of unconditionally importing at the top of each Python file. I've seen that help a lot for slow Python CLIs at $DAYJOB

This looks like a bad faith lawsuit to extract money. Given all the discrimination in corporate DEI programs, especially at big tech companies, what actually happened is almost certainly the opposite - white and asian employees were discriminated against, in favor of a set of groups that were seen as under represented. In reality, without the bias DEI programs created, white and asian employees would have probably been hired at higher rates and promoted more quickly.
You do know that Hinkley Point C will require €170/MWh 24/7 excluding transmission costs for 35 years.

Forcing new built nuclear power on the ratepayers would today lead to a self inflicted energy crisis.

The question is also how do you match said nuclear plant with the grid load?

In California it swings between 15 GW and 50 GW over a year.

I'm surprised you mentioned IR blaster, which is on my list, but I consider the second most niche one after FM tuner, which my current phone actually does have. Here's my list from what I consider most reasonable to most niche:

Small size. I'm a 6'2" male, so my hands are probably pretty well above the population average. Maybe it's because I'm a lefty, but I hate how big phones have gotten. It makes one hand use almost impossible, and if it's that hard for me, I have to assume that most people have just given up on even trying. I'd really prefer a sub 5.5" phone screen (part of me wants to say even smaller, but it's been so long since I've used a phone that small, that I don't even know anymore what my ideal size/lower limit is).

Headphone jack. Relatively self explanatory, imo.

No camera cutout. I hate them. I'd literally rather give up the screen real estate and have a bigger top bezel (although, see my point 1, I obviously value screen size less than most consumers). Luckily in Android you can just turn off the screen around the cutout in developer options, but I'd prefer to just not have the screen there. At least on my current phone, it still wastes battery (this might be a non-issue on OLED screens) and will register touches, preventing proper touch recognition elsewhere (this is related to the difficulty of single handed use, would probably be mitigated on a smaller phone)

SD card slot. Maybe the easiest of this list to actually still find? It seems like a decent number of phones these days have a spot for it in in the SIM card tray. I've heard that the reason companies don't include it is that a lot of SD cards are trash and wear out pretty quickly. This could lead to consumers losing data and being mad at the phone manufacturer. In my opinion, this is understandable, but still a bad reason.

IR Blaster/FM Tuner. I consider these two together. They are both pretty niche, and are "nice to haves". Mostly because I want my phone to be as much of a general purpose communications device as possible. The times when these are helpful are infrequent, but in those rare times, extremely nice to have.

Replaceable battery actually isn't on my list, mostly because I consider it part and parcel of "repairability", which (maybe nonsensically) seems like a different category. And, for me personally, battery degradation actually hasn't been a problem for phones. The two biggest things I would want to be able to repair are charging ports (this would be mitigated with wireless charging) and screen repair. These are, for me at least, the two most likely parts to break/wear out, and in my opinion they should both be cheap and easy to repair. Of course, if it was easy to do those two, you'd get battery replacement almost by default, and I certainly wouldn't be mad about easier to swap batteries.

It is cheaper to build out a large (continent wide) network of renewable energy generation with the necessary surplus production and storage than it is to build sufficient nuclear power to adequately provide power. Not to mention much faster and less political contentious (most people like nuclear power in the abstract but are vehemently opposed to power plants or long-term storage close to their home).

The UK's problem is not too much green energy. It is the insufficient integration of the European power grid and less than ideal investments into green energy on the part of other European governments.

Even if you ignore safety concerns and political resistance, nuclear will always loose on the economics.

I'd say the graph's qualitative behavior is correct. Once you get to the arctic circle, there are singularities in the rate of change of the length of daylight.

For example, if you're at the North Pole, the sun is below the horizon all winter, and then on the vernal equinox rises above the horizon and does not set again until the autumnal equinox. So, formally, the rate of change in daylight is zero all year long, except on the equinoxes when it is infinite. Any latitude above the Arctic Circle will have these kinds of singularities.

In practice there are some corrections to the amount of daylight that I discuss at the bottom of the article, the most important of which is the effect of atmospheric refraction. If you were standing on the North Pole, you'd actually observe the Sun appear to rise some time before the vernal equinox.

There is, but making that work is complicated. Math gets easy if you can for example buy power for free during day and then sell it night. 365.25 cycles a year. Say 10-30 years. 4000 to 10000, times your storage capacity. Even cents for each might be reasonable.

Now cut this at worst case to 10-30 that is purely storing power in summer for winter. And you really start to need very very very cheap per unit storage. Even multiply couple a times and it is still very tough.

Remember we are talking about cents per kwh here. Margin just isn't big.
