Really good stuff but I disagree with the need for professional references as it just adds a bias for socially competent which may not be a part of the responsibilities.
Because theoretically recycling all of them is a great idea but in the real world there will be lots of trash that will destroy the environment. Take masks for example, they now litter the entire world when all someone has to do is throw them away.
There needs to be a chemical process to break down the harsh chemicals into something environmentally friendly. Ideally, something that uses solar power or other highly available energy sources.

When Nightly is breaking no-std targets, is there not a way to pin a specific Nightly release to prevent that?
Since it's tangentially relevant, if you have an M1 Mac I've created some boilerplate for working with the latest Tensorflow with GPU acceleration as well: https://github.com/alexfromapex/tensorexperiments . I'm thinking of adding a branch for PyTorch now.
I found this thread, for future visitors: https://www.reddit.com/r/homesecurity/comments/i1q981/lookin...
I'm sure a lot of them exist but which one(s) are most popular so we can join?
The Internet was a nice idea but until it's fully decentralized to guarantee there's no censorship it won't realize its actual potential for humanity
Tell HN: I created a boilerplate repo for using TensorFlow with M1 MacBook GPU

The imposition that these reactions are caused by something called pollen food syndrome seems a little ridiculous to me. I tried to research but couldn't find any data, can anyone find data that show a trend of increasing pollen for several decades? I wonder if instead these reactions are at least partially caused by over-prescription of antibiotics in the general population which is altering the role of bacteria in human immune systems (https://aacijournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s1322...). Seems just as likely, using inductive logic.
This article is extremely accurate about fatigue from wrangling and prepping large amounts of data. One thing it oddly ignores is the YTD inflation rate of 8.5% but it acknowledges that salaries increased 6.9% since 2020.
Ask HN: Any masterclass training or similar for building Agile software?

Companies get what they pay for. Nothing more infuriating than getting a 2% raise in a year with 8.5% inflation while the company announces they’ve made hundreds of millions of dollars in profits.
Many methodologies have unintentionally introduced bias, like the article mentions. Another example, ear infections are generally assumed to be caused by bacteria instead of viruses leading to prescription of antibiotics which may cause dysbiosis or antibiotic resistance leading to chronic ear infections and/or digestive issues. Why don’t clinicians test for viruses or parasites first to see if maybe that is weakening the immune system and leading to a bacterial overgrowth?
Can’t speak for everyone but if salaries don’t start tracking with inflation I see no reason to work hard
This must be common, I just bombed a leetcode (tm) interview where I was asked to write code to share a method between two structs using traits in Rust without duplicating code. I couldn't remember a time I'd ever seen it done with generics so I tried to find it in the documentation but nothing. I looked up the solution after and it is not possible without writing a macro which is metaprogramming and seems like a poor way to assess how I'd perform writing Rust on a daily basis when I only had ~20 minutes to do it and was transparent that I am still learning the more advanced concepts. There were other red flags I ignored in the interview process, I look at it as a bullet dodged.
