The Kraken ate them.

As someone stuck in the lower class almost unable to work and any work I do is very distressing because I'm someone who is chronically disabled with chronic debilitating pain and an array of other problems that are no fault of my own: Ain't this some bullshit. It sure is easy for the rich to say "just be happy", "just follow your goals" etc. It's so easy for people with opportunities to say that, is it any wonder the richest people I know are also the happiest.. I wouldn't be surprised if the people in this study are in higher positions than the rest and have less stress and demands put on them in their daily lives.

Gene expression changes are very common with food. What you eat commonly changes gene expression, this is why inherited traits are not very relevant to your health. What diet you inherit is much more important. If you have a family history of a certain illness it's most likely that your diet is what is expressing those genes and not your inherited traits. This also means if you change your diet you can plot whole different disease and health outcomes.

Most people are going to assume this article is bad news because they don't understand this fact, that makes this article pretty suspicious (without having read it) in my mind. Industry propaganda "science" isn't uncommon, a few years ago a big set of papers were published that were basically made up evidence that were completely bogus that was written by a pro-industry lobby, the reason was because of a pro plant based diet health related documentary that came out at the same time. It's a tactic of sewing doubt in peoples minds, if people have doubt they wont change their behavior or oppinion for the better.

I'm gonna read this article later and I hope it's not propaganda..

I really doubt that setup produced that much heat at all. I recently plugged in an old DOS machine and it only used as much power as my phone charger to my surprise. Less computing power also means it needs less power overall.

Old gear is less efficient but today's computers have so much more computational power that we use a lot more power today per machine.

Disappointing the amount of ragging people are doing towards Tesla here, Tesla is far ahead and I can't believe people are falling for this promotional video and assuming they are farther ahead.

Tesla's vehicles are in the consumers hands and have many many thousands of drivers using their system every day. Also the VERY first comment here mentions a misleading article "Tesla to recall vehicles". This is misleading since Tesla probably didn't recall even a single vehicle, they probably all got an over the air update within a couple days of the problem being spotted. When a problem comes up Tesla is quick to send out an update and the news loves to write misleading articles every damn time because bad news about Tesla sells, there are so many wrong articles out there it's insane.

So disappointing that even the people I assumed would be smarter (Hacker News), are falling for this shit. Also this debate of cameras vs lidar is so old and outdated because LIDAR IS NOT GOD DAMN MAGICAL it has it's problems too. Tesla has also dropped radar because they don't see it being beneficial enough.

In reality talking about lidar vs cameras is not too important especially in the long ron, how far the tech is underneath is the most important thing currently and over time the amount of compute power you have in each car will be the most important factor.

Made in JavaScript HAHAHAHAH

This is a terrible decision. It also feels very undemocratic and a way to undermine trust and hide public opinion on a topic. Like a company made a screw up, before it was easy to see public opinion on the matter, but this just allows companies to hide everything, it feels like this decision was only made for companies and people with a controversial opinion like the feminist movement or a racist right wing movement.

I mean read the text "dislike attacks", this reads deeply like some disgruntled femminist who's community keeps getting dislikes because they have extremely controversial opinions. The femminist/SJW community really dislikes democracy and want more censorship it's no joke they are called "Feminazis".

I deeply dislike this decision and I feel like there is some hidden money or power or intent behind this decision to undermine democracy, this is deeply concerning.

Let's just say that is an extreme unlikelihood. The risk that you would get a permanent lasting effect from covid is very large which has happened to many who have had covid, millions are not over their lasting effects. At least with the vaccine it is under someones control, designed vigorously to be safe and someone is legally responsible. If you got covid, bad luck, your problem. I don't know how it works in the US but where I live (DK) if you get some kind of bad side effect from a treatment you can get compensation very easily. I guess in the US there might be lawyers involved or I guess since you got it for free from the government that they are responsible.

Also it's still likely that if you get covid a third time that you will get a worse outcome.

China being bat shit crazy in their favorite authoritarian dystopian way as usual. Maybe they should ban the literal slavery and genocide that they do against the Uyghurs https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uyghur_genocide, but oh wait they do that on purpose for political reasons so that wont happen. People in this thread are giving China way too much leeway.

If they cared so much about people not wasting their time maybe they shouldn't have forced thousands of people to become athletes solely for the Olympics and when they inevitably fail to become pro and they don't have any education because they spent their entire life sheltered training so they now have to beg on the street for handouts, that seems like a waste of time.

China is just North Korea in different clothes and with the long term aspirations of Nazi Germany during WWII. China will be the next catalyst for the next major war, they are pretty much that aggressive.

This is just a clone of Svelte? It even has one of the same examples.. and similar syntax.

Better productivity is nice, but putting an abstracting in the way could be worse because it hides stuff from you you would otherwise learn or even make better yourself, this is also how we get slow apps which web based applications are infamous for. We need more native apps and new areas to explore not more of the same billion JavaScript libraries etc. JavaScript is brain rot for programmers and places creative people in tiny bloated slow sandboxes where they create carbon copies of each other. I hope someone finds it useful, i don't mean to rag on about this particular project.

This is not what the world needs, these planes will be extremely polluting and inefficient and carry very few people. I doubt if the US properly taxed carbon that these planes would even be considered. This is the worst idea the aviation industry has come up with in quite some time, I thought we learned better than to replicate the bad antique ideas from the past.

This seems like something that could only come out of tone deaf and climate denying America. The rest of the industry is trying to improve their climate targets and innovate, this is going straight in the opposite direction. I would sign a petition to ban these planes in a heartbeat.

We shape the future through investments, an investment in one thing takes potential away from another. Over a hundred years of fossil fuel investments have starved investments into for example batteries and the electrical grid, not to mention the whole thing was subsidized by the hidden cost of climate change. We as societies have failed hard to provide subsidizes and funding for these technologies, and a carbon tax at least at last reflects the real cost of fossil fuels, and creates innovation that is going to at least be useful in the future.

I taught myself how to repair stuff so now I can get a lot of stuff for nearly free and repair what I already own. You can buy spare parts for almost anything online today, or even find an alternative part that is cheaper. People throw out things that are barely broken.

YouTube being hostile towards their creators as usual.

Very short version: data:text/html, <body contenteditable>

I see more anti-vegan militant people than I see actually militant vegans, then again I might be biased. I think the "backlash" is more an effect of cognitive dissonance than anything else, people "have" to push back as they have an inherent desire to justify their actions and beliefs to themselves.

If I have a problem I don't want to admit to myself I just blame it on you, that way I don't have to deal with the problem. This is exactly how cognitive dissonance works and how our minds "solve" it.

Also why would anyone care about "militant vegans" at all if they didn't feel some kind of inner discomfort about it.

The choice for a vegan diet isn't necessarily just a moral one.

Half of people say that animals/morals is their main reason, health takes the other half. Today there are even more reasons as we learn more, like climate (one of the biggest things any individual can do) and fitness.

Also a vegan diet isn't sub-optimal to a normal diet or vegetarian diet, quite the opposite, there's literally years difference in life expectancy.

I don't care what anybody eats, that's their own business, but I like to be factual.

I create a "Library" directory on my machines because of this, it's not a great fix at all but it makes it a little more sane.

With this I can also more easily sync my files across machines.
