It is manufactured by steam reforming of natural gas which produces CO2 as a byproduct.


Who is Dale?


It’s Miami (read: Spanish) for “word” or “cheers”


It means " go" or "let's go"


Sure but what’s it used for. To finish a conversation.


It’s both, it’s not just a Miami thing. I hear it all over Latin America. In both ways like dale dale Olimpia (go <team> go).

Me: I’ll have a burger. Waiter: dale.

I don’t hear it much in Argentina tho, but maybe I wasn’t listening for it.


Don't forget "vale" which I always think of as being Spain Spanish but you hear it all over the Spanish speaking world too. Which is like almost the same, but not the same.


You could translate the Spanish literally as "hit it". It's like saying "alright!"


I think “let’s gooooooo!” Is probably closer? Ish


If we are being literal literal it’s “give it” or “give (it to you)”


Right, but that obviously isn't how it should be translated in context.


It's pretty close. I always think of "send it" as a pretty close English equivalent phrase.

Or maybe fifticon's pee comes out as quantized packets of a fixed size.


HN's comment section devolving into discussions about quantum-piss, I'm here for it :D


Because they are web-scale obviously.


I have one of these bed covers. I bought it before the subscription crap started and I am very satisfied with the product. The dual-zone cooling/heating is super good and has been a big improvement to my quality of life/sleep. Especially considering that my wife has different ideas than me about temperature and what constitutes hot/cold. Yes, it would be nice if I had local control but I am willing to ignore that as long as I don't have to pay more.

But I wouldn't recommend anyone buy it now because of the subscription.

It is good to know that there is an option to continue using it if the company decided to no longer grandfather in people who bought before the subscription crap started.


There is also ANISE made by the same author: https://github.com/nyx-space/anise


> At least Nikola delivered what they promised.

Ah yes. The Nikola Gravity Drive™ has been a roaring success and is now powering millions of trucks worldwide. This bankruptcy is merely a blip in their continuing success.


My first scan parsed that as "Marijuana 1 quantum processor". Very high performance ...


For me it was more than my first scan. I understand the word is Majorana, but when I go to pronounce it or read it, my brain reports back "Major-auwana."

The people who signed off on this name a) do a lot of drugs or b) didn't notice because they have never come anywhere near weed


> Very high performance ...

From the user's perspective, of course.


Argghhhh.

I rue the day that I decided to play the game of "What word is Majorana 1 similar to?"

Cuz, and I know the armchair psychoanalysts will have a field day, this is what my mind pieced together...

    Major ana*1  (remove the asterisk and treat the one like an ell)
Now I can't unsee it. Sigh.


This is the reason why is called like that. Is pronounced Ma-y-orana

>likely dying in or after 1959

That is how I would like my obit to read as well.


truly quantum way to go


I read "Majorana 1 aquarium processor". I am not high.


Hah, I read it as "Manjaro" at first glance.


Might be a more truthful name honestly too


Can you add SoCal (ZLA) approach/departure? There's bound to be lot more audio for the traffic for a general area than a specific airport tower.


Approach/Departure is SCT (SoCal Tracon), ZLA is Los Angeles Center (en route/ARTCC). While there'll be more traffic, it's still spread out across a bunch of sectors that are each typically their own feed.


Ah. Fair enough.

And yea, you are right about ZLA vs SCT. I think I mostly fly around SCT and don't venture out much into the wider ZLA area. :)


Same...only really talk to center on long xc's with FF


> And you don't necessarily need "socialized" healthcare -- you need a system that gives both patients and doctors more agency.

You can get something sort of like that here in the US - direct primary care. I pay ~$125 per month to my doctor. This can be paid from an HSA/FSA as well. It is not as expensive as "concierge health care", but you get most of the perks and immediate access.

Appointments are usually available next day or even same day - as many times as I want. No co-pays. The doctor has far fewer patients so you can actually talk to them for an hour or two during your appointment. They can charge insurance (if you have it) for most lab-work or you can pay them reasonable rates out of pocket.

They can refer you to specialists if necessary (who may require insurance), or even consult with specialists with your permission, at no extra cost.

The on-going care/prevention aspect will probably help save money and keep me healthier in the long run as well.
