mariushn··on Learning to Live with 50C Temperatures
Quotes: From Dubai to Mumbai, cities are having to adapt to hotter summers, often exacerbating economic inequality in the process

the Gulf’s vast hydrocarbon wealth has allowed its better-off residents to luxuriate in western-style cities that defy the inhospitable desert.

Many of Dubai’s upwardly mobile still jet off to cooler climes during the peak of the heat, but those who remain can avail themselves of facilities that keep them indoors during the hottest parts of the day.

Dubai has ice rinks and an indoor ski slope, while emperor penguins and Arctic foxes live in Abu Dhabi’s SeaWorld, a vast indoor theme park. In the region’s shopping malls, the air is so chilly that one Dubai expat carries a jumper with her while shopping during summer, and says she looks forward to winter so she “can be warm again”.

Those determined to brave the blazing summer sun can swim in outdoor pools filled with chilled water or jog around the 1.14km air-conditioned outdoor path in Qatar’s Umm Al Seneem park.

mariushn··on Launch HN: Sorcerer (YC S24) – Weather balloons that collect more data
How do you control the altitude? I would imagine 'heat/cool the air inside the baloon', but this would be too energy intensive?

Congratulations for a great non-saas market and product!

Thanks! How about overdose with Glycinate? Eg taking daily for sleep with a normal magnesium level in blood test.

mariushn··on Ask HN: Any good black Friday deals?
Hi,

> the Gigabyte M28U 144hz 4k 28" monitor that I use

How is the brightness when set to minimum? I have an LG that with brightness set to 0 is too bright to use in the evening (compared to my laptop screen, for example, where brightness 0 is very dim, hardly visible, as it should be)

Thanks

mariushn··on Find anything fast with Google's vector search technology
Thank you! Now I understand why others mentioned that generating vectors is the hard part.
mariushn··on Find anything fast with Google's vector search technology
Looks great!

Dumb question: How does Weaviate know that "Scandinavian" is close to "Finnish" ? The source not having "Scandinavian" at all. If their vectors are close, then the "vectorization" is quite standard for any text, and also per language?

mariushn··on MuditaOS And Mudita Center are now fully Open Source
Aren't the digits-only keys almost useless? Who types a phone number these days? I either call contacts, or click on a phone link, or long-press on a phone number on the web then select Call, or click Call from Maps.

Hope these guys would consider doing an ereader though.
