Is it possible they missed a "to" in the title? Should it have been "Inflation rose to 7.9%"?

Wow! Thanks. Reading through it and it makes a lot of sense. I had no idea such a thing existed till now.

That makes sense but I see a lot of places where they estimate power consumption in W or mWs. How do they do it? Is there may be a window of estimation possible in a constrained environment? No network or file I/O I guess is all the re

Is there a standard mechanism to measure power consumption for applications on processors?

Is IQ really quantifiable and measurable and is it comparable across different people, different geographies and races? I didn’t think it was, may be I am wrong. How is IQ even defined?

Watching the Apple event brings up a question for me. I know nothing about sign language. They have to make new words for different technical fields as new words and technologies get created. I am curious to know how difficult it is to come

I get people are skeptical but let's be objective here. Not everything needs to be a conspiracy and an evil scheme. California and NY followed CDC guidance. We are past the Omicron phase and may be the data shows we are in the clear. I

2030 is only 8 yrs away. It took magicleap 8 yrs just to launch a shitty version of their product. This space is very very tough.

This is an easy thing to bet against, so much so that I would raise the bet too. I don’t think the current technology is capable of L5 at all but obviously lot of people feel differently

Do we know what the pay discrepancy between physics research and computer science and finance jobs. I wonder if we are attracting the brightest minds in high paying jobs.

I don’t get how this works. If the fund invested in Russian assets they are probably down a lot in value now. If they liquidate them will Russia allow that money to even leave the country? If these assets are outside Russia I guess it’s str

I for one cannot wait for the used car market to crash. The new car prices have gone and I don't expect them to come down. They will keep the prices at the same inflated level and offer deals and/or loans. However there is room fo

For me the question is how far will the world let Russia go? Has the rest of the world already made a decision to only work through sanctions and not actually interfere? It has for now obviously but will that decision not change even after

This was always mentioned as last ditch option with Russia. If Putin is defiant after this and turns rogue there are no more restrictions to put. The world will have no option but outright war given they have nukes

Can someone with knowledge explain what this means for European countries that buy gas, oil and other goods from Russia. I am guessing they still want the essentials. Are those purchases not done through swift? That bring up another questio

Interesting that it looks small yet is able to withstand the winds and didn’t get eroded. Wonder how strong it is. Does the rover try to investigate it at all?

Oh no! I am against any Russian aggression and the atrocities they are committing. This is terrible. Please understand that I am only trying to understand the approach that organization was taking with the charity, never questioning how evi

Why are we discussing patents? They mean nothing, it’s just a way for engineers to make some extra money, organizations to defend in lawsuits and trolls to survive and show us how absurd patents are.

I know emotions are running high in this thread but asking to educate myself. Ukraine is not a tiny nation, and Russia is huge. In that scenario how will a small assortment of weapons and software even help them? Do they even need weapons h

The politics threads on HN are very revelatory for me. I always thought the HN crowd is very analytical, logical and knows how to understand data and reason with it. In that sense these threads are more disappointing than some random intera

Not accepting authority is not the lesson I would take from this. Good scientists would accept their mistake and correct themselves is what I see as the lesson there. There is no way for a student who is still learning physics to know or tr

Sorry but to me that logic applies more to crypto than countries. Crypto is a solution with no problem and it’s flush with 100s of billions and so all those billions are hell bent on finding a problem and keep pushing for it

Not every protest is the same just because they call it that. The one going on in ottowa is a nonsensical, made up, cult based brainwashing that got spilled into the open. Don’t equate it to other genuine forms of protest.

So this is not a payment/purchase option on Facebook but they want to be Apple Pay? I mean do they want me to support it in my app for example?
