Maybe a [TRL x] tag too.

In the current online discourse climate...

The HN community can be a good candidate to collectively, over time and use... develop and refine a set of commonly understood tags to communicate context in post titles.

If not in title, then maybe in the top / "pinned" comment.

If they can spread beyond HN... that would be even better.

(Since there are posts on economy related factors and the OP was about Nazi Germany)

At a different level is this somewhat reflective of USA today? (USA today is by no means poor, although it is true that the bottom 50% has stagnated for quite long)

Would it be more practical to consider MPTCP use in a smaller network such as across servers and racks in a data center /room

while using QUIC (and MP-QUIC) over WAN / Internet?

and the other comments on lack of MPTCP support from middleboxes, my guess is even for Apple first party apps, out in the wild, might not see much MPTCP use?

There are many ways to slice this, for example emissions per capita (which can also be current vs historical cumulative, etc.), all of which should be studied since this is a complex problem.

There's a lot of discussion about the forest.. how about some discussion on the trees? Both are important?

I worry about cuts to departments that is on clean energy, EV, sustainability in general. (For thinking that Musk is in that industry so it wouldn't happen, there's consideration that cuts on Govt support in that area will actually benefit the one that's ahead.. that's Tesla for the charging network, the EV sales, the peaker plant replacements, etc.)

Can an app use MPTCP if they don't have a MPTCP-aware server component? Or is Apple proxying (or via VPN) the MPTCP connection as part of their services?

Maybe a good idea to work for a short stint in a commercial kitchen?

Not a snark.. it's quite eye opening to see (and actually use) how much food a piece of commercial kitchen equipment processeses in a day and then how much effort it takes to clean them.

An example of cleaning a commercial deep fryer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFR5CN_kuI0

One can also try googling for other more detailed versions showing all the efforts in digging out all the burnt sediments/sludge :)

Re:Jeff Bezos killed Washington Post endorsement of Kamala Harris on Saturday October 26, 2024 @01:57AM (#41952881)
A while ago, the failing/risks of banks that were too exposed to particular sectors (crypto/blockchain) brought some discussion on the merits of diversification of key risks.

In a highly partisan landscape with increasing geopolitical tensions, is ownership a key risk to objective news? Is diversification of ownership of news sources a good way to help mitigate that? If so, any good ideas from the HN crowd?

The China Government seems to be referencing the USA and EU regulations to also mandate it for vehicles in China

If IA still loses after all avenues of appeals are exhauseted, will they be required to delete the archive or will they merely be required to take it offline?

Are private attempts to preserve human knowledge (e.g. IA keeps it offline from public access but continues to archive new works) legal in USA and other major jurisdictions?

Can anyone share their experiences with the new Kobo colour devices with pen support (like the Libra Colour)?

Been itching to upgrade my beloved Libra H20.

Thanks in advance.
