Yeah, I was thinking of the same study. Looking at just the conversation on HN, lots of people are installing solar. Solar reduces the amount of energy used by that customer, but does not lower the cost of infrastructure to distribute power

Or just pay for Youtube.... $8/ month gets rid of most of the ads in videos, $15/month to remove ads from music, shorts, and search results.

They were the official music videos for the album, looks like Daft Punk released all of them on YouTube. This Playlist has them all in order: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLSdoVPM5WnndLX6Ngmb8wktMF...

Interstella 5555 is still one of my favorite movies. It's an anime movie where the entire soundtrack is the album Discovery. There are no vocals, the entire story is told by only the animation and music, and it works incredibly well.

Yes, the First Amendment is about the government. Freedom of speech, in the other hand, is part of a moral code that believes in inalienable rights, that humans implicitly have the right to express themselves. The government does not grant

I was looking for a more direct measure of this, how often a model "leaked" private state into public state. In a game like this you probably want to sometimes share secrets, but if it happens constantly I would suspect the mode

Considering these courses included assigned reading, and that total would include multiple novels, yes, that is cheap.

Every time you say rocket chat, I have to appear. FWIW, the change at Red Hat has always been hard to separate between the forces of IBM and the reality of changing leadership. In a lot of ways those are intertwined because some of the new

Very. Election officials, across states and across parties, have been faithfully discharging their duties, often under pressure to not do so. This is a responsibility of the states, and not the federal government. If you're concerned,

Surrendering work to the public domain is actually more complicated. It's easy to make the claim that a work is public domain, but the law may not allow you to actually relinquish all copyright claims. This also depends on which countr

How would decentralization make a difference here? Fact checking only makes sense when a platform has people with multiple different beliefs about what is true. If people can self-select into their own bubble, then it doesn't do anythi

FWIW, this doesn't only happen with promotions to "management". Senior IC roles often come with new responsibilities, like influencing influencing technical direction, often without any "hard" power to do so. I&#x27

This is great. I think there is a tendency to apply the Peter Principle to others (ie the boss), but it applies just as well to ourselves. How long until we are all promoted into incompetence, and how sure are we that it hasn't already

I've also been looking at the export, but I don't see any way to filter down to "Shooting incidents". Just sampling the first 10, 10% of 2000 is looking like way less. Were you able to find a way to validate the 900 numb

Looking at this database, they have a really loose definition of a "school shooting". I'm just going in order here, no picking and choosing. Here's the link if anyone wants to follow along: https://www.gunviol

Sure, but there's a lot of speculation that it was a wronged customer. It could have been someone he works with. It could have been someone from his personal life. People who are not Healthcare CEO's also are murdered, there are l

Just want to caution everyone to not jump to conclusions. Remember when Bob Lee was shot in San Francisco and everyone assumed it was because of how unsafe San Francisco is? And then it turned out to be another tech exec? Beyond the one mot

That would still leave the problem if determining what state they were driving in, or allocating all the revenue to their state of residence even when they drive in other states as well. How this works in trucking is interesting. Whenever a

Yeah, this is not creditors "making money". Anyone who had 1 bitcoin in FTX is not getting their 1 bitcoin back, which is massively more valuable. Instead, they are getting 119% of the USD value of a bitcoin in late 2022. They are

The best thing about the challenges from 3d CAD Speedmodelling is that they needed a quick way to validate submissions, so they do it by validating the mass of the design. The density to use is included in the problem. The answer is on thi

Your website mentions printing on pcbs, do you expect this to be a competitive option for pcb prototyping or manufacture?
