You can shave a byte off the unsigned addition by using the sbb instruction

00000000 <original>:
0:	8b 44 24 04	mov 0x4(%esp),%eax
4:	31 d2	xor %edx,%edx
6:	f7 d2	not %edx
8:	03 44 24 08	add 0x8(%esp),%eax
c:	0f 42 c2	cmovb %edx,%eax
f:	c3	ret

00000010 <one_shorter>:
0:	8b 44 24 04	mov 0x4(%esp),%eax
14:	03 44 24 08	add 0x8(%esp),%eax
18:	89 c3	mov %eax,%ebx
1a:	19 c3	sbb %eax,%ebx
1c:	09 d8	or %ebx,%eax
1e:	c3	ret

By (ab)using the short pop instructions we can save another byte:

0000001f <another>:
1f:	58	pop %eax
20:	5b	pop %ebx
21:	01 d8	add %ebx,%eax
23:	89 c3	mov %eax,%ebx
25:	19 c3	sbb %eax,%ebx
27:	09 d8	or %ebx,%eax
29:	83 ec 08	sub $0x8,%esp
2c:	c3	ret
Or desirable.
If you run a2p on the awk, then remove some boilerplate and unformat as per the original, you end up with only about 18 lines of perl.
can you tell me how to accomplish my java certification
Thanks for the link context; probably where I quoted from.
That or their smaller competition will have a harder time dodging it than they will.
I think that good web developers and agencies can probably really pick and choose their clients as well, and they probably don't like to waste time entertaining numerous "potential" clients who after 3 hours of listing all the custom features they'll require, look shocked and disgusted when presented with a cost estimate.
Legally, yes. FinCEN distinguishes custodial exchanges with noncustodial wallets. It looks like signal is doing the latter.

Bitcoin Core (the software) is not registered as a money transmitter anywhere in the world, its developers are fine and never got into any trouble.
> I think also for a lot of people, social media is the internet and almost inextricably so.

I'm glad you've posted this. I've been observing this for a long while, and it drives me crazy. My spouse (30) is actually a good example of this. For most people smart phones and tablets aren't the "super computers in people's pockets" often touted on forums like these. They are really simply just gateways to social media.

I'm on mobile so this will be short, but it seems there are consequences of this: it seems like most people aren't actually good at finding information on there internet. Many no longer seem to have a concept of physical data storage. Many still struggle with understanding the very basics of internet security, or passwords. It also seems like so much more work has just been offloaded to the individual under the guise of "you can do this from the comfort of your own home".

Or maybe it's just me...
All of these Hungarian STEM heroes (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Martians_(scientists)) were pre-Silicon Valley people. It was still Valley of Heart's Delight back then.

Not sure who their successors were. I guess there's Knuth.
In general it's the poor ergonomics of calling native command-line tools and manipulating their results that tend to disappoint, but I've mostly played with CSX (c# repl script) as a "repl as command-line" dabbling.
Honestly: I believe that the spate of attacks against Asians is being spurred by the news coverage of it. The media created a narrative of Asian American hate crimes, which did exist, but the “trend” they created increased the intensity of it. Just like school shootings or celebrity suicides, the news coverage fuels more of the same.
I definitely think the mac OS cmd based keystrokes are much more ergonomic than the windows ctrl based keystrokes. For windows you have to hit ctrl with your weak pinky, then awkardly stretch your index finger to somewhere on the keyboard. It's an awkard movement that I don't think my hand otherwise ever makes during my life. It seems like a recipe for strain to me, doing something not commonly done by the hand regularly. I think it originally was expected that users would use their other hand to type right ctrl since there wasn't a mouse back then, but these days everyone keeps their right hand hovering the mouse or trackpad rather than hovering over the home row.

With cmd based keyboard shortcuts, your hand basically forms the default resting limp hand position, with your thumb on the cmd button, and your index finger lazily and easily finding the other key to complete the shortcut. Your thumb is basically always there anyway due to the spacebar. It's a much more natural movement.
> I wish that this site provided a simple form where I could input a URL

Thanks for the note. I thought about this exact use case. It is a big ask to get someone to install an extension and a privilege to sit inside their browser (and I take this seriously).

I think I will add in this feature to the marketing website sooner than later, probably tomorrow, because it is sorely lacking. I think also a search function is in order but right now the system does not track the titles of any videos because that information isn't needed when it deals only with alternates.

> Good luck, and thanks for working on a project that's trying to wind back the gatekeeping and extreme censorship we see today.

It's getting nuts. I'm doing what I can think of! Cheers.
This post actually suggests cloning John von Neumann as one of the options if we ever have adversarial AGI :) https://fantasticanachronism.com/2021/03/23/two-paths-to-the...
I think using HK for any sort of model that includes property prices is a bad idea. It’s a very unique situation there.
I (like many, I suspect) am a die-hard "natural scroll" hater. The fact that you're making physical contact with the thing you're scrolling does indeed make the "natural" direction feel natural on a touchscreen, but not on a separated scrollwheel or touchpad.

Of course you're right, it's an annoyance that's removed in a matter of seconds by clicking a checkbox, and regardless its a difference you'd quickly adjust to, assuming you kept using Macs fairly exclusively.

Still, it's not clear to me that there was any need for "unification" in this area. But then again, I don't use OS X anymore (and no, the scroll direction wasn't the reason).
Solar is cheaper because of you suckers that don't have panels.

Surely the economics of the situation dictate that if everyone who didn't have panels had panels, it would be even cheaper, given we are not going to run out of silicon.
Not until the 1940s it wasn't (search on candy bar): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percy_Spencer#Career

OP just means the headline is talking only about the somewhat mundane event, not the much bigger implications.
Apart from that, it's also not really a bad idea to write your own virtual memory management layer if you know you can do a better job than the OS because you know much more about the expected access patterns, or because you know that the OS does a really bad job in some common cases. Sometimes, the OS is unable to handle large virtual memory areas (think OpenVZ/Virtuozzo VPS with 256MB RAM = virtual memory and 50GB of storage that now cannot be used in this way).

Perhaps Squid didn't do such a good job, but just leaving everything to an idealized OS is short-sighted (as proven by the more recent Varnish code).
Keep in mind it will be easier to hire PHP dev's than ruby developers. If you find a good ruby dev you will have to pay $$$$.
I really like this idea and have discussed it in detail with a few buddies.

I even have the URL cheqd.in if you would like it please let me know.

My thoughts were to make it the anti-location based check-ins.

So TV (watching) Books (reading) Internet (surfing) etc..
Teaching is not remotely "thankless", they just trade wages for non-wage compensation (tenure, defined-benefit retirement at age 55), and work significantly less than most other professionals (for the 9 months/year when they actually work).

Comment by Chris Dixon:

"My investors know when they invested that I have strong ethical views including remembering who was there from the beginning.

Not everyone believes in Milton Friedman crap that maximizing shareholder value is the sole purpose of a company."

Once again, I find myself thinking that I'd love the chance to work with Chris.
Great advice. The main thing that seekers should takeaway is that an extra body often creates MORE work, not less. The more self-sufficient someone can present themselves as, the better.
Same thing happened to me. I thought pg whacked me with the banhammer.
I tried to look for why Apple would be afraid of a Killer App on its platform in this blog post. I couldn't find a justification for why this might be the case. Did I miss it, or does the article just leave us to assume that "shame" is a compelling reason for it?
Is a company's name on their building really considered advertising? I mean, if I owned a nice building for my company, I'd take pride in having our name on the front.
I guess I still don't get your point. What is it?

Also, no, I haven't worked as an employee for a $10 billion company, nor do I have any desire to.

And yes, you can change entrenched industries overnight; that's the point of technology entrepreneurship, and it's why many of the people who frequent Hacker News bother coming at all.

Lastly, I've noted that in other parts of this conversation you claim to be an expert on payments--so who are you, again?
It seems to be using the pentatonic scale, which is generally easy to deal with. It is also quite limited though, with only 5 pitches available out of the standard 12 in an octave.
I have just recently completed the JPMC virtual software engineering experience on InsideSherpa and I must say it is really a nice platform. First, you get warm reminder emails to remind you that someone is always available, should you run into any issues and also to push you to continue putting in the effort. Next, the platform is quite easy to navigate. The modules were clearly explained, with intro videos and next module is unlocked as you complete the current one. Finally, the documentation/instructions for each of the modules in the virtual experience were very detailed and helpful. I ran into some issues for missing a crucial part of the instructions. So do not ever miss a line of the documentation or instructional materials, you never know how much time that may cost you.
Would like to see a render that looks like this did.
Sure X-Plane "supports" VR but it's so badly implemented that you don't get any immersion at all. The brain is not tricked when it's running at 30 to 45 fps.

The controllers are pretty much useless. Your hand shakes a little and suddenly the yoke is at 90 degrees deflection because there is no resistance.
I think a perception of additional personal safety is definitely a reason people like SUVs.

But you can be super safe while still helping protect your crash partners. You can often improve both your and your crash partner's safety with more crumple zones.

I don't think the patrons of this thing are going to be thinking about this much.
when the Fukushima disaster happened in 2011 and the surrounding areas became no-go zone, gasoline cars were stuck because no gas tankers were coming in to refill the gas stations.

But electric cars were charging from local solar powered recharging stations just fine.
I've got a truck (an older Tacoma) and too many hobbies that make it hard to give up, so I'll likely always have a truck.

If Tesla had introduced a factory version of Simone's, I'd be screaming at them to shut up and take my money.

This thing...I'm sorry, I can't get over the styling. I love the numbers, and don't even find the pricing to be too horrible, but there's no away I'll have something that looks like that. Maybe Tesla truck 2.0 will be worth looking at.
If they overtly offend China this would negatively impact YC current portfolio companies, discourage current/future LP, and other make their business more difficult. So they went with an intermediate approach.
Yeah; after living in urban Texas you realize that the core truck buying market couldn't care less about utility. They literally mod their spotless piles of metal to be less efficient. They just want it to fit their definition of what looks cool. And this ain't it, chief.

I would submit that being a junior programmer in the contracting world is a nontrivial part of the problem. Contracting relies on a lot of really bad incentives that I personally suspect are largely antithetical to good practice.
Great design, perfect readability.

Nice app (but not usable until login and commenting is supported).

We don't explicitly require teams to open source their bot after the tournament, since sometimes teams have special restrictions on publishing their code. But some of the top teams have published their code or framework online in the past.
There usually are antenna output pins even on some of the cheapest Bluetooth modules, and I plan to go for an all metal case anyways. You've certainly got a point though ;-)
It would depend on what exactly prevents you from getting root rights on your device.

If it's DRM, to address that you'll need to fix DMCA-1201. Or more precisely, allow breaking DRM for any non infringing purpose. Right now it forbids it, and instead provides idiotic method of Librarian of Congress deciding what exceptions to grant.

This corrupted law was passed undemocratically using backdoor method of WTO trade agreements.
As someone who travels for a living, the speed of the plane isn't that big of a deal. It's the fact that to get from North America to just about anywhere Africa, I have to detour through Europe, which is a complete waste of my time. I would much rather have better routes than faster planes. (For example, I could get to West Africa in ~12 hours from the east coast of the U.S. if the routes existed. That's a nice overnight flight, landing in the afternoon. I wouldn't have to waste a full day stuck in a plane, no new technology required.)
I've stopped worrying about duplicating code that is less than one line long, and I'm a happier person as a result. It's a slippery slope that eventually you stop writing code that actually does anything and are just writing layers of indirection. Similarly, not all string values need to be named constants, because not all string values are intended to be changed.

The helicopter is itself also a science instrument. How do they prevent any of the instruments from destroying each other? Careful planning, I would guess
I'm running a synology 6 bay nas which in addition to hoarding data and time machine backups, its running pihole in a docker container, plex server for the kid's movies, and a linux vm for little python scripts and a mqtt server. I haven't run home assistant on it yet, but I think it should be able to handle it. Plenty of folks warned me that it lacked the computing power but for my purposes it has been pretty great.

Interesting location choice. Why central NE?
Which kind of makes my point for me, given how idiosyncratic Mormonism is. Meanwhile: imbibing is, in fact, integral to the belief system of what might be a plurality of Christians (Catholics, Lutherans and Anglicans).

Add Judaism to the roster as well; wine is an integral part of the Seder.
> I’d be cashing in right now

Are you sure? I investigated once the Mercedes 300SL Gullwing. Despite the high price it fetches, it's still a lousy investment, if you consider inflation, compare it to S&P 500 returns, and account for all the storage costs, insurance costs, and costs to keep it in running condition.

Cars decay even in a climate controlled garage. I've had some problems with my '72 Dodge with plastic parts becoming very brittle, and some things just disintegrating when they're touched. Not that I mind, I didn't buy it as an investment.
Not owning a home generates negative income in its own way...
Two points: 1) the parallel construction headlines were not from the Snowden disclosures, they were from documents independently obtained by Reuters[1].

Ah, I stand corrected, thanks. I didn't know that. It's not the least bit material, but I'll be careful not to credit/blame Snowden for bringing us this little tidbit of knowledge in the future.

2) This is what the original article actually had to say about NSA involvement in parallel construction (emphasis mine): "Today, the SOD offers at least three services to federal, state and local law enforcement agents: coordinating international investigations such as the Bout case; distributing tips from overseas NSA intercepts, informants, foreign law enforcement partners and domestic wiretaps; and circulating tips from a massive database known as DICE."

Only the article's second sentence matters, as far as I'm concerned:

Although these cases rarely involve national security issues, documents reviewed by Reuters show that law enforcement agents have been directed to conceal how such investigations (of American citizens) truly begin - not only from defense lawyers but also sometimes from prosecutors and judges.

And with respect to

"Wiretap tips forwarded by the SOD usually come from foreign governments, U.S. intelligence agencies or court-authorized domestic phone recordings. Because warrantless eavesdropping on Americans is illegal, tips from intelligence agencies are generally not forwarded to the SOD until a caller's citizenship can be verified, according to one senior law enforcement official and one former U.S. military intelligence analyst."

These people break countless laws and tell countless lies every day, with total impunity even when said lies are told before Congress. Excuse me if I don't believe "one senior law enforcement official and one former intelligence analyst" for one minute. Give me one reason to.
I think this is definitely interesting. My goal was to look at how incredible the networks of data are. I strongly believe that data is going to be the core focus for AI. After we have data then AI's will take a bigger role. I don't think that will be a time where AI will ever physically prevent us from doing what we want.

Wrong.

You could keep in sync only "index" and "backups" directories on your backup client with server, you don't have to keep "bundles" everywhere.
As far as I can tell, the abuse all originated from a board on 8chan. As I said, I that is so far away from what he does that I don't even see them on the same continuum. Also,

No it doesn't. He probably doesn't even know about this. If he did, have you considered he might be scared to speak up?

To be fair, the BMW electric car is the ugliest car BMW has ever made. It looks like they accidentally welded two different models together in the middle. They deserve to be made fun of for that disaster.
You are describing the costs of total network capacity. The poster above is describing marginal costs of bandwidth.

If there is infrastructure in place that is going underutilized and I want to download a megabyte of data, the marginal cost of that data transfer is incredibly negligible. But that infrastructure exists to meet the conditions of peak utilization, when at capacity, and that is what is expensive.

If anything, Sprint should give flat rate mobile data and have fixed funding campaigns to increase capacity for each residential block around a tower. If the speeds are too slow end users would then pay to upgrade the infrastructure themselves, or more specifically heavy and business users would subsidize network upgrades.
> Most mathematical objects have very similar structure and the rest is just maps (morphisms) between them.

Is there a book covering this topic that you can recommend?
If you remember back to the early 2000s Swatch as a marketing gimmick proposed something called 'Swatch Internet Time' which was "designed" (and I use that word in the loosest possible sense) to solve this very problem. I think a couple of Ericsson handsets had support for it.

Wikipedia has the gory details for those interesting in that bit of trivia. I've used it as a programming exercise when interviewing candidates a couple of times.
The same method very likely could work for most auto-immune conditions if they can repeat the basic method in humans. They’re essentially turning on and/or ramping up the existing self-regulation mechanism of the immune system. I’ve only read the abstract, but what I’m not sure about is their selective delivery/targeting method, as that seems the hardest part. The various regulatory pathways cells are fairly well studied for most AI conditions and the mRNA sequences for their associated receptors could be programmed readily as I understand the technology.

However, if it does work in humans it’ll be a huge leap forward for treatment of auto immune diseases. Perhaps long term, even inflammatory issues like arterial plaque, which we’re slowly realizing is formed by chronic inflammation as much as by high cholesterol. Alzheimer’s May also be largely driven by incorrect immune responses too.

I suspect the challenge will be long term mRNA suitability, e.g. if the mRNA delivery mechanisms will develop immune reactions of their own. The cost of delivering the mRNA treatments could be large too. Biologics for autoimmune conditions require self administered shots too, but don’t require deep freezer cold. Also it could increase long term cancer risks by over stimulating self-regulatory pathways.

Not sure if the full article mentions if it’s a one time shot or on going. I’m presuming ongoing dice mRNA will degrade.
Look at any 20 articles about Covid transmission from February to April. You'd be lucky to find one that stressed not touching surfaces over mask wearing.

In 37 California articles I saved from that period, exactly zero even mentioned not touching surfaces in equal or higher importance to wearing masks... and only 8 even mentioned surfaces as a transmission vector (generally, only doorhandles).
What am I confused about other than what I asked? There’s two books. The first is Paradigms of Artificial Intelligence Programming, which used Common Lisp, and the second is Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach, which to my knowledge primarily uses or encourages Python. I was trying to place what time Norvig was referring to in the linked comment. He mentions his book, which I assumed to be the modern approach one. The first edition came out in 1995 and the second in 2003. Python came out first in 1991, and he joined Google in 2001. His comment makes it hard to know when he was referring to (and thus even what book), and what I don’t know is if the first edition of the modern approach book used Python or if that came later in the second edition (without going and finding copies of the editions myself).
Here is the document I was referring to: https://web.archive.org/web/20111219004314/http://journal.th...

You should have started and ended here. The officer who died to protect the Congress was still clinging to life when you accused him and his colleagues of treason.

We will find out soon enough if the Capitol Police Chief took part in any real or imagined conspiracies. That has no bearing on the demonstrated actions and loyalty to the Constitution of the vast majority of DC police officers.
What about the destructors for the temporaries used in the computation or the function call parameters, or the parameters themselves?
