Better evaluation and pricing of equity leads to better allocation of capital, which leads to value creation, which is not zero sum.

Now, if the the better-pricers manage to capture all the value they create, that is another question. But even then, they'll have to spend it sometime. A yacht builder is paid, and so on.

> Does Chess sap the intellectual potential of humanity?

arguably, yes. it's a closed universe which at best provides entertainment for outsiders, unlike writing fiction which can inspire even revolutions, to say nothing of enriching minds and widening the emotional and intellectual horizons of individual readers. not sure if you were being serious about higher mathematics.
Right, the question was whether there are people who have meaningfully contributed to GNU who disagree with RMS, or the only complainers are internet randos. Obviously the answer to that question is a list of people who have previously been active FSF or GNU contributors and now are either inactive or have public disagreements with RMS.

(By the way, Kuhn was on the board of the FSF while he was leading this "competing organization." The fact that this was not seen as a conflict of interest, and that the FSF has awarded him for his work at this "competing organization," implies that they are not actually competitors.)

Who, then, has the right to criticize RMS, if they don't? It sort of seems like anyone who raises a criticism of RMS can have that criticism dismissed because they've become a critic of RMS.

Who is a legitimate part of the free software movement other than RMS himself?
More people do than you think. Apple doesn’t have a significant historical presence in Washington DC for the weather and easy traffic situation.
Okay, so this is indeed very interesting. I just launched the same version of Firefox in a Win10 VM, and it works there too. So it might be one of your extensions, maybe? (I use uBlock Origin too, so that's not it.)

Could you try these things out please?

1. Try disabling all of your extensions and try again. (IIRC by default private mode disables all of the extensions, so that should be an easy way to do it.)

2. Can you open the dev console and try running something like this in it?

document.querySelector("audio").play()

Based on your original error either the `previousElementSibling` is not an `<audio>` tag, or for some reason audio tags don't have a play method, so it'd be good to know which one it is.
You don't think the guy that buys the factory that a thousand people work in contributed more? He should get $10/hour for laying out a couple billion?
> so they're already contributing an order of magnitude or more than I am

My friend's gma passed away, giving him $500k inheritance. He invested that money at the bottom of the crash last year and increased it to $1.2m.

In this situation, how did he contribute $700k of value?
Not to mention whatsapp is actually broken. It's bound to your phone number and can't change it. If you change SIM, your account is wiped.
AND the worst: your contacts are not notified so if they send a message to the old number, it will just silently fail.
Absolutely horrible. I never understood how whatsapp could be phone-number bound and not account bound like everything else out there.
Fossil itself has a decent translation guide:

It's like The Matrix, you know there is something missing but you can't tell what. OSes should have continued evolving but we are stuck with the tech that is enough for OS companies to build and maintain. Watch "Bret Victor The Future of Programming" to get how delayed tech is. OSes should be "web browsers" but with optimal executables, not Electron-bloated-browser-per-app, OSes in 80's personal computers had a simple language for anyone to create its apps (i.e. Basic, Hypercard), should have better standarized accessibility, and there are many UX controls and interactions that should exist.
Totally agree on VDOM, it's an implementation detail.

I also agree that isomorphic is an intimidating and esoteric term. There are examples however, like the word function, which are "overly psuedo-mathy" in exactly the same way. The mapping between rendering technologies is basically an isomorphism. Each category has objects (html OR dom) and a we can map them with the html parser (html => dom). Each category has morphisms (json => html OR json => dom) and we can map them between by loading the client modules ((json => html) => (json => dom)). Finally, for some json input (J), a renderer (R) and a function (F) that performs those mappings, the framework ensures that: F(R(J)) === F(R)(J). That's not exactly an isomorphism but it's VERY similar.
I don't listen to Lil' Wayne but I do watch his interviews (it's hard to NOT watch them). He seems genuine and truly cares about his city, his fans and the music he makes.
You say larger companies survive crashes, but their valuations still take huge hits. Look at the last dot-com crash: MSFT crashed from $59 to $21, AAPL crashed from $4.90 to $1.00, CSCO crashed from $79 to $14, and so on. 1 of these companies (AAPL) took 5 years to recover and double its market cap peak of 2000, while the 2 other companies never even recovered their market cap peak. So betting on Sam's metric in 1998-1999 would have been a very reliable indicator of whether or not a bubble would follow these years.
While I agree student loan debt may be unsustainable and start defaulting, I don't think it's as disastrous as the subprime crash because (from my understanding) most of student loan debt is on the books of the Federal government, and is not being monetized in anywhere near the magnitude that subprime mortgages were being sold on a global market.
I think you mean: we can’t find anyone worth interviewing interested in the offered salary. I guarantee that if you double what you’re offering, your “shortage” will go away.

Successful dating apps suffer from a shrinking user base.
Congrats on the continued success. It can stun people when they are reminded that the skills they sell to others can be applied for their own prosperity and I think you see that here.

If you’re a developer with a day job there has never been a better time to get started building and selling your own software.

It’s not glamorous but it is rewarding.
I find this to be true. Some folks fresh out of school, feel like they need to be constantly vocal to have influence and make a name for themselves. They also can bring strong but untested opinions to the table without the experimental data to back it up. Why do I relate this? Because I was guilty of it myself when I was younger and just starting out.

However, as I've grown and gained experience I have become more pragmatic and willing to let my good work speak for itself, reserving my more vocal moments for the times I have most impact.
Gotcha! I understand now.
Well done - I've used Typeform at scale as COO of a digital marketing company, and just at a glance, it seems you've done a better job with the workspace hierarchy. While I'm no longer in that position, you'll be my first stop next time.

Keep it up!
Yes, we made it easier a while back. Now you can map customname.ngrok.io to your tunnel with a command line switch. If you want to use a CNAME, it's a similar switch, a dashboard entry, and an update to your DNS entries. I did it on my own domain in a couple minutes, flushed the DNS records, and had it routable in ~15 minutes. The full docs are here: https://ngrok.com/docs#http-custom-domains

Disclosure: I work at ngrok
Forgive me for replying here, I couldn't find an option to DM you. And I cannot find any implementation of this in javascript, nor anyone else able to help me.

The CEO just bought a $55M Hamptons crib. These are the people who lobby for "small government" and fewer taxes, because they prefer to shell out money as "charity" as crumbs off the table, claiming that the government is not efficient.

Then they take a pile of money and set it on fire.
Agreed, and what's interesting is that despite all of those pointless style debates, there hasn't been much pushback on using reformatters (that I've seen). This tells me that the debates weren't really about "my style is objectively best" but more about "I'd like to use a consistent/predictable style (with preference to mine)."
It's odd that nobody followed Go's formatter in letting developers break lines themselves and mostly fixing indentation and spacing. I thought they made good choices.
There's a search field at the bottom of the HN page that searches all of HN.
- We've built a lightweight but powerful multi-language RPC framework that allows us to seamlessly and easily tie together subsystems written in any language, running on any platform. Facebook is built in PHP, C++, Perl, Python, Java, and even a little bit of MLÂ—and it all works together.

- We are the largest user in the world of memcached, an open-source caching system. Originally developed by LiveJournal, we've since made so many scalability improvements and performance upgrades that we will be the primary contributor of features in the next major release.

- We've created a custom-built search engine serving millions of queries a day, completely distributed and entirely in-memory, with real-time updates.

I am so glad that my line of work has next to no chance of opening a chip can and finding a venomous snake.
Maybe this is something I've never noticed, or I brushed it off without thinking about it. If that's what Pinterest is doing, then I can see why I'm being downvoted.
Yes, that one is a borderline case. Actually I included it in my GP comment as an example, and said we decided to leave it up except for downcasing it! But then I removed that bit, because the comment is so long.

Baasically, games that focus on cooperation and inclusion rather than winner takes all type competition.
It is plauisble to think there was foul play with Epstein but frankly the conspiracy theorist label fits the advocates very well. It is a matter of process and rationality.

They assume literally everyone whose name they recognize is a secret pedophile without even a scintilia of unreliable evidencd in deranged guilt by association.

That they treat "wanting more conclusive evidence in speculative matters" as "siding against" only proves the point. It fits the "more about emotional validation and confirmation bias than investigation" mold to them.
Quora tried to grow too fast by generating questions and spamming these to users for them to fill as fast as possible. A pile of garbage growing too fast is going to get caught and punished. I can totally see it being delisted by google and shutting down as a failed experiment that ran its course.
China wants the Uighur‘s gone, period. I don’t think anything short of military action is going to stop that.

And frankly I don’t think that is ever going to happen, because of the world powers that would be capable, they too hold resentment for Islamic religions.
I think the real problem is in your head: your anxiety about job interviews is sabotaging something you're otherwise perfectly good at.

You need to be more zen about this. More laid back, relaxed, confident, or something like that.

You've probably been raised with the idea that job interviews are Very Important. Let go of that idea. It's just a chat with another programmer who's equally ill at ease with the situation. Imagine you're just having a coffee, or maybe discussing something at a seminar or something. He's not the boss; you're equals. When he asks the wrong question, let him know. Suggest changes. Discuss what YOU want to discuss instead of letting him dominate the conversation.

Of course it's still possible that he's inflexible about it. That tells you something about your prospective co-worker, and possibly the corporate culture.
This is not something that could evolve into a Heroko add on. What you're thinking of is something like https://www.rethinkdbcloud.com/
I used OpenCV in a bunch of college projects and had no idea it was the same guys who did ROS (used for my senior research project). Best of luck with your next venture!
> Get over it people, Google+ is the new account system for all Google products.

Maybe Google should finally get over the fact that they've lost this fight and that noone wants to be in a social network whose member numbers are inflated by such desperate moves (which most of us have experienced now and are well aware of).
I'm not particularly familiar with either language... that documentation seems to be talking only about Go called from C-called-from-Go, not from arbitrary C. In other words, it handles Go calling a C function that expects a callback, and handing it a Go function. This does not handle a fundamentally-C program calling a Go function.

Again, not an expert, I could be mistaken, but this seems to not be addressing the original issue raised (that C/Go interop is one-way only).
100% agree, that's the same feeling that I have.
However, I am not sure what would have happened if I had remained in my little town in Italy. Perhaps it's hard as well, no matter if you move around or not.
>In an Instagram post, Navalny said prison authorities were trying to undermine his hunger strike by roasting chicken near him and placing sweets in the pockets of his clothes.

Breaking a long term fast with either sweets or roasted chicken doesn't sound too good.
I did this with my daughter. She was riding her bike within the hour. I made a game of it with chalk on the street. She how far she could glide, then mark it. Keep repeating... Eventually put on the pedals, and off she went.
Go back to the fundamentals first. https://www.musictheory.net/lessons Learn this by heart then learn it again!

Best lessons ever for Music Notation and Music Theory 101. Just keep in mind this is for the "western common-practice period", not some kind of intrinsic property of music.

Then watch a lot of Adam Neely, learn on https://www.justinguitar.com/ if you play guitar, and just devote lots of hours to the many, many, many free resources on the internet (which now you will be able to search for, since you will start to know the unknown unknowns).

See you in a few years, the self-taught way is long but rewarding. Have fun!

EDIT: Also, remember learning both horizontally (theory) and vertically (play the damn tunes!) It's easy to fall into the unidimensional growth trap.
In my experience, it doesn't. Hibernation is a hit and miss on Windows too, just less so.
Some other things it could be:

- it's a planned outage of some internal system for an upgrade/patching/DR exercise

- it's an unplanned outage of some internal system because some planned change to something it depends on went awry and had an unanticipated impact

- it's an unplanned outage of some internal system because some key component drifted into a bad state (e.g. database server ran out of disk / unique identifiers, call centre line to data centre was attacked by a rogue backhoe)

To make a guess, they've probably got 10-100 key services or dependencies that need to be healthy for this function to work and they're probably running 1,000-10,000 different software platforms internally (not instances but different software applications).

Sorry that mathematical notation is causing you problems.

How do you see the article lacking in formal substance?
I find your comment about stack traces a bit weird: of course, when all your work is sequential and you can use only threads, you will have a nice stack trace for free, when async stack traces need a lot of support from the tooling.

But most of the time you not only use thread, but also several synchronization primitives (locks, channel, etc.) and when doing so, regarding stack trace you are in an even worst situation than what async stack traces gives you (“some thread changed this shared-memory value and now it's not what you expected, but you have no easy way to know which one did and when, good luck”).
Yup. Triggering this legislation on who the company is rather than what they are doing is ridiculous and loses any credibility it has.
Presumably you'd sell each person a row so they could lie down.
Weird. This is normal. I work for a large electric utility in the United States and we already have employees sequestered. This is pretty much par for the course.
I've seen the movie. Is there something in the book that has anything to do with this technology? I'm not understanding the comparison you're making.
VAIO SX14?
No offence, and your attitude is what we need, but what are you sure it was covid. Perhaps it was flu. Saying it was a few days doesn't fit with what I've heard other people who've had covid.
> SFINAE, CTAD

These are advanced template techniques for people who want to dive deep into writing template libraries that are as generic as possible. Insinuating that they are a necessity to learn is ridiculous.

decltype is easy and only necessary when trying to make something more generic.

Also something that programmers don't even need to know exists unless they want to dig into it.
One guess: it's not a drug which they have the ability to crank up the production on quickly. Some drugs are easier to make than others.
why is every study i've ever seen posted somewhere deeply flawed -in some way that is obvious to even non-experts?
Somehow I am not surprised given all the talk about toxic culture at Amazon from current and past employees.
And Scylladb may have a better thread-per-core model and no GC pauses, it basically has the exact same management challenges as Cassandra.

The parent comment almost seems generated by AI.
Your assertion that a civilization that is a million (or more) years ahead of us technologically would see us as a threat is, ironically, just more confirmation that they have absolutely nothing to fear.
> "These inaccurate, unsubstantiated and dated claims don’t reflect our commitment to keeping personal information safe. Amazon has comprehensive, long-established privacy and security policies, procedures and technologies in place.

Every company has Policies. Zero companies have Realities which match their policies. This means nothing.

> We regularly audit our services to ensure compliance and have zero tolerance for employees at all levels who do not follow our policies,"

The only people who trust security auditors are people who haven't been through a security audit. Many companies who've been hacked were audited. This means nothing.
Dynamo allegedly has global replication now.

Of course, I have been totally unable to determine how they merge rows/partitions without cell timestamps. It's a black box.

I was just on a "Keyspaces" meeting where the sales dude basically described dynamo billing, dynamo provisioning, feature shortfalls obviously due to dynamo, but would not admit it was dynamo.

It was bizarre.
Obviously different scale, but they seem similar in my view - bubbles based on assets of little practical utility (who buys groceries with BTC with $12 transaction fees and your wallet doubling or halving every week?), fueled by unpredictable crowd mania.
Yeah TFA does no such thing. This whole thing is due to the new Australian law, which it is clearly what this deal is intended to satisfy.
Not surprised, considering that they spin every little feature into its own AWS service. it would be an insane task to easily control the data flow, retention policy and anything like that.
Join us in #scuttlebutt on freenode. We're a pro-privacy group that came together through the oakland communities. We're developing a device-hosted replicated database capable of end-to-end encryption and distributed authority. Privacy is solveable, join us there.
Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. IMHO the app's layout needs more work before I'd consider buying it for aesthetic benefits.
While I could simply tell you to blank out ENV vars once you've internalized them, I will instead write an infinitely long essay on how they are "considered harmful" that contributes absolutely nothing back to society.
I did not realize that macs did not include a TPM... So there can be no equivalent to bitlocker for them. This seems like a big competitive disadvantage for them.

I suppose you could make a dongle with a tpm for macs.. Perhaps there would be a market for it.
I see two problems:
* They don't know yet that their approach will fail
* If you come to them with an already finished, they will realise it took you a very short time to build it: hence, they'll consider your solution is worth less

I don't think you can put a yearly cost of 15k$, if they already think 25k$ is too much. In their eyes, for the first 3 years (standard license duration in my field...), the TCO will be 45k$+hardware, which is even more unacceptable.

For the "exclusive" license, it all depends if your source code is actually re-usable by a third party...

What you can probably do is come up with a two-fold contract:
15k$ for 100hrs at 150$/h
If the software delivered can run on the low-end hardware, company will save $24k/year. Developper is then entitled to a yearly payment of 12k$ for the first 3 years....

It's a win-win situation: if you fail, you still get the 15k$ and they still have a solution. If you can make it, you win 15 +(123) and they save (123)
Article about a specific sci-fi author: Every HN user just mentioning their favorite sci-fi book or author does not add any value. Especially when they say nothing interesting about named book and have not read the author in question.

Helpful comment, possibly adding value: In a comment I mentioned another author and why he is interesting. I have a reference for comparison because I have read Wolfe.

Same goes for any other topic.
It did expire in 2005, according to the page.
While this doesn't sound like somewhere I'd want to work or how I'd run a company, I think they should be applauded for trying something different and succeeding. Seems like these ~25 people are happy with the arrangement and that's really all that matters.
:D It's heading towards what you predict at the speed we're heading to be in the year of linux on desktop.

PS4/XB1 have been enormously more powerful than PS3/Xb360 and yet almost all games on those consoles that play a video do it using Bink even if both consoles have that AMD hardware you mention.

The current generation PS5, etc is way more powerful than PS4, and yet bink still seems to still dominate in the limited titles that we can see.
