I think you want both to be included, but yeah something like SURCHARGE = ((WEIGHT-2500)/1000 + (VALUE-30000)/10000) * CONSTANT. Maybe even make it exponential to discourage upper-middle class conspicuous consumption (think G-clas

You can stand up your own on top of a t3.micro or something if you don't care too much about HA (e.g. you just wanna be able to hit the internet when SSHed into your instances).

not to distract from your central point, but while the saturated fat in (unclarified) butter doesn't smoke like veg oil, the proteins in it do seem to burn up

Right, it all begins with studying where they're coming from since they're in everything from fire suppression foam to floss. I'd imagine companies like DuPoint are dumping insane amounts of them as byproducts of industrial p

Most websites have them, just browse in incognito and either override your user-agent to something funky or connect through a known VPN.

To be fair it's only a matter of time until CV and NNs replace Webdriver/Selenium as the goto for scraping. First using accessibility APIs and later on imagine something you plug into USB C that emulates DisplayPort and HID device

In systems software I've often seen/done this on a micro scale, where you build the new system inside the old system, think feature flagging but something so fundamental that it's almost the whole thing.

communication overhead kills you though (in both cases)

Right, and then OP can bring their /24 to AWS or migrate the data plane off onto a less known provider?

Once the OP has ramped up their business, they can have a discounted P2P offering where you use each other as exit nodes.

Who cares if it's on big 3? If it takes off and they start getting charged 10c/GB, after about 10-20k spend for the month they'll be paying about 5c/GB so close to breaking even. More importantly, at that point they&#x27

I think the idea would be to capture excess solar energy, this could be an alternative to grid upgrades, battery installs or opportunistic industrial use.

Seems that the issue is fairly pervasive and has struck a nerve with some who have contributed to it.

No doubt a good 5-10% of that goes to ambulance chasing lawyers and fake chiros blowing up fender benders to policy maximums.

it's not, it's more efficient and thus cheaper

this doesn’t necessarily need to produce net positive energy to be net positive. Think solar cells on calculators in the 90s

but Toyota sells more cars in a year than Tesla has in the past decade? And no, if they made an EV it probably wouldn't be selling like hotcakes, because an EV is largely an irrational choice for most people (looking at you, guys chill

The thing is it's very difficult to discern which is which. For example, contrast Galileo pitching heliocentrism in the 17th century with a conspiracy theorist going on a popular podcast and saying the earth is flat. We can't all

I think calling into question views that don't have bipartisan support (in the US, but similar divides exist elsewhere) is more likely to get shit on HN these days. I imagine this is simply a function of community size: a small communi

I don't think so, you just have a flap that absent a pressure gradient stays closed. When extraction is on, you usually are producing heat so it's not as big of a deal.

A tool the aforementioned aspiring dictators often wield, often in the context of a town hall, far exaggerating the effects of something they don't like. At the very least let's do a CEQA study first, ok?

Maybe they're arrogant, they're so convinced that they're at the center of the universe that they forget that they preside over a town of 100k in a world where billions of people are coming out of poverty and wanting increase
