BTW, there is only one job that is not subjected to ionising radiation exposure limits: the astronaut. Radiation in space is just too damn strong, there's not much that can be done about it without spending high multiples of what'

True. But I think HN is simply a constant few notches above the baseline of the Internet. As the Internet is "sinking", so is HN. Plus, you can actually have a good discussion here. Somehow the community knows to completely shut o

Thank you for the HVDC cable to Poland, 600 MW on the Baltic floor. We appreciate it in "mainland" Europe.

Let me recast the above comment in a simpler language, also stripping it away from the provided explanation. And do correct me if I'm wrong! > Systems that are guaranteed to be correct 100% of the time are subject to Gödel. Systems

If you bought options your base case should be that they expire worthless, except some very special cases. If you sold options your likely case should be extreme loss, exceeding the premium in double digit multiples. If you don't know

It means that if you add up the regrets (for example, staying in a bad job or not doing X for Y years) then it will come up to about 10 years for everyone. Maybe your 10 years are still ahead of you, or perhaps some of them are behind you b

I remember she was getting banged in one scene, which the narrator commented something like "sex - Amelia tried it, meh". Maybe the scene was cut entirely.

Never watch "Eyes Wide Shut" in the American cut! Also, never watch it on a plane. Otherwise it's a great movie :)

Details, anyone? What kind of current are we talking about? How long did the field last? Was anything interesting placed in the field, and did something interesting happen to it?

Not now, but who knows in 20 or 50 years ...

US GDP is about $21T, so about 420 times bigger. Or to put it differently, about 0.2% of the GDP. Also, wage theft isn't fraud exactly.

How does that compare to UK's GDP, for the problem to be massive?

Fun fact: the US did not have any sensible short-range SAMs (surface-to-air missiles) prior to 9/11 for additional defense of high value targets. Airspace defense was based almost exclusively on interceptor aircraft, which proved quite

I don't think there is a massive problem with financial fraud. What would be an example?

by H8crilA 4y ago
Has anyone considered opening a criminal case against such people? Evidence of fraud shouldn't be too hard to collect.

If only many countries including the US had insisted on diversifying gas supplies for a decade+ ... Similarly, look at the state of the Bundeswehr. All it can muster in terms of SPHs delivered to Ukraine is about 20 PzH2000. Great equipment

America is mining 100% of the domestic oil demand, actually. You have outdated data.

Yeah. Also, energy is very very similar to money (spending power). Both represent the ability to transform your environment. This connects to the formula for estimating "net worth of a country": one has to add up net worths of jus

Ok, but the other presented standards are obviously ridiculous. "This guy is famous and a master of the game, so I'm going to trust him when he's seriously trashing some young guy." I am someone who can think.

Yes, and it doesn't matter.

What? Just because of reputation? What are you even talking about... Have you ever heard of "innocent until proven guilty"? The burden of proof is on the accuser. We should be shown evidence, or Carlsen should apologize.

Yes, to a game where you can no longer memorize openings. Which fixed that thing (memorizing openings).

Ask HN: Is the CCC in Hamburg going to happen this year?

Newsflash: watching paint dry is a game (until the solvents reach an equilibrium with the air).

Lol. The British monarchy is completely irrelevant. It is useful as a target to release some of that social tension, though, like is the case here.

Bitflips are still very much a thing, but you need to be processing datasets at least several petabytes in size to get a decent probability of a bitflip/instruction error. It's always about the probability of a flip/error, no

Why adtech is more sociopathic than algorithmic trading? Honest question, especially because both are so similar (algorithmic usage of information in fast marketplaces).

Your "edit:" portion just describes an SDR, a software-defined radio. They're pretty common these days actually. This tool is an advanced front-end for such hardware, kinda like Wireshark is an advanced front-end for a networ
