The death of partying in the USA

news.ycombinator.com Derek Thompson 2026-02-07 06:43:43

In January, The Atlantic's Ellen Cushing published an essay with an admirably blunt title: “Americans Need to Party More.” Burrowing into the appendix tables of the American Time Use Survey, she unearthed the fact that just 4.1 percent of Americans said they “attended or hosted” a party or ceremony on a typical weekend or holiday in 2023. In other words, in any given weekend, just one in 25 US households had plans to attend a social event. The ATUS is a government questionnaire that asks a larg

How to prove false statements: Practical attacks on Fiat-Shamir

news.ycombinator.com Erica Klarreich 2026-02-07 22:48:09

Randomness is a source of power. From the coin toss that decides which team gets the ball to the random keys that secure online interactions, randomness lets us make choices that are fair and impossible to predict. But in many computing applications, suitable randomness can be hard to generate. So instead, programmers often rely on things called hash functions, which swirl data around and extract some small portion in a way that looks random. For decades, many computer scientists have presumed

TikToker Launches Fake ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ Tour Website That Redirects to Photos of Trump With Epstein

gizmodo.com Lucas Ropek 2026-02-08 08:30:34

The Trump administration recently launched “Alligator Alcatraz,” a migrant detention center based in Florida whose name references the region’s native population of scaly reptilians. Americans have been left with little to do about the situation other than react with horror and amazement or, in the case of one TikToker, a desire to spin the dystopian situation into comedy gold.

So while we all try to get our heads around what’s next for climate tech in the US and beyond, let’s look at just how dominant China is when it comes to clean energy, as documented in three charts.

The country reached nearly 900 gigawatts of installed capacity for solar at the end of 2024, and the rapid pace of building has continued into this year.
