Worth the drive when visiting the Bay Area. They’re about the size and weight of an F150.
Nothing comes for free. You're digging for jobs with the hope that it turns up a diamond sometime along the way. It's tasking but the only question is if the possible payout is worth it to you.
That's why I said it's always a matter of certainty. It's up to the judge, the (grand jury), the tribunal, etc.

It's not arbitrary. It depends on other pieces of legal proof, like statements from witnesses, other material evidence, etc. For example in case of hidden partitions people usually get busted because forensics find data directly referring to it (eg. in caches, metadata, logs, thumbnails).
>So what are the power-players doing? They're deprecating the validity of 'those free certs', and pushing EV.

> [...]

>Cert chains from the root authorities have been a continual scam, until LetsEncrypt showed up. This EV bullshit is no different.

You seem to be conflating web certificates (for lack of a better term) with code signing certificates. When it comes web certificates, 3 of the 4 major browser vendors are removing EV indications from their UI[1], so I'm not sure where this "push" is from. On the other hand, for code signing certificates, there is a push from MSFT to get EV certificates, since it automatically gains "smartscreen reputation".

>But there you have it, piles of money because 'a real business can afford it'. And some assumption that scammers wont.

Like it or not, when it comes to everyday windows users, code signing has the best ux compared to other forms of validation. Right-click -> properties and it shows who signed it and whether it was tampered with. This is much better than posting a file hash (how do you calculate a hash? what happens if the landing page is compromised?), or GPG (how do you install GPG? how do you build up web of trust? are you going just use whatever key that the download page says to use?)
Basic SQL sure, but the moment you start getting into complex operations, upserts, extensions, functions, custom aggregate operators, arrays, HStores, etc it gets complicated. At least for me.

In the UK we have similar questions of plotting and describing geometric functions, however we were simply taught how to plot them by hand, or just directly interrogate the equation to spot where an asymptote might be, roots etc.

IMO this gives a much better inherent understanding of equations, rather than just plugging in some numbers into a calculator and reading what comes out.
Thanks for sharing! It's true that CoScreen works best with multiple screens but it also works with just one screen (details in a comment on this thread). Tmate is indeed awesome as long as you're working within Terminal.
Honestly, nobody knows. The issue is severely under-diagnosed. I have been doing PT but it is very difficult when several tendons are involved. Specialists are baffled. I have talked to people who have been suffering for 20+ years, and those who mostly recovered in 1, 2, 3 or even 10 years to where they would rate their recovery at 90%.

However, it is believed that the muscles/tendons will never perform at the same capacity again. Recovery is mostly about getting to relatively pain free life and ability to work and do things.

I have been to mayo clinic, seen 30+ physicians, numerous specialists and ruled out every disease known to cause such symptoms. Only one physician said that my symptoms align with toxicity of that medication and none of the physicians reported it to the FDA. This is very saddening considering the amount of research and information from the organizations like FDA and EMA.
Have you never heard of the labor movement? The grassroots activism by working class people that forced the federal government to develop an entire arm of federal law, with its own Cabinet-level agency, to protect them from the professional managerial class?

How have you spent your career working in public policy circles and come away with so little understanding of what grassroots activism is, and the impact it has historically had?
There are certain scenarios where all bets are off, no clever investing strategy will help. I do wonder if climate change might become one of those events.
> Plenty of people don’t want the government telling them what to do on their property.

Sure if we pretend libertarianism exists as a functional concept. Can you build an enrichment facility on your property? No. Can you dump toxic chemicals into your well? Nope! Can you fly drones at 30K feet? Nah. Can you brew up a batch of grandma’s finest crystal meth? No siree bob. So yeah, you accept plenty of encroachment. The sanctity of your property is an arbitrary line you’re drawing to exclude campers, sunbathers and randos off on a hike. That’s sure to teach somebody... something...
a heroic dose of psilocybin is very likely to make you confront the source of depression.

Whatever there is under the surface affecting you, it certainly isn't going to hide during a heroic trip. Quite the contrary, it gets amplified, taken to it's extreme - and if you accept it, you'll be shown the other side. And it starts loosing its power over you.

The "source" or your "problem" likely isn't what you thought it was at first either, according to a friend.

So it's not a drug that will make the pain go away. It will show you things through experience, which is a powerful way of learning.
This explains why so many websites don't validate email addresses properly.

I mean more generally, a public outcry about something, either deliberately or inadvertently does. If a startup responded to one of these events in a similar way it would put people way offside and bring their credibility into question, as has happened in this situation.
Ah... a pet topic of mine.

This starts at home; and always will do if we want to make a difference.

Reduce your energy usage, buy local produce, install solar (and other sustainable) power. All of these changes can be done for very little additional cost. And if you really care it is the approach to take.

With enough of us doing these things it increases pressure and awareness a lot more than blogging about it etc.

While the final fix rests with the governments, we have to do our bit. Just, we're going to have to do it first.

At the moment "Green" is big business; but it is not so much actual green, as "brand Green". With enough consumers going after more eco-efficient lifestyles it increases the real green market and therefore pressure at a national level.

If everyone in the country went and installed solar panels tomorrow....
And also, all the technologies created for distributed computing by google i.e. Mapreduce, GFS, BigTable. Currently most of the web is using Hadoop, HBase, Cassandra and other tools which are all inspired by google work.
Awkward.

You are absolutely correct. I've been scrambling to help fix the situation, and I didn't triple check my post like I usually do. I did indeed mean "Request help from the HN community" not "Y Combinator, please rescue us." Sorry for any confusion.
I think it definitely would and prefer it that way. Upvoted for your suggestion.

I didn't mean it as an attack, nor was I suggesting you should be worried about the number. But its presence on the marketing page as a selling point confused me. The fact it's there reads to me as if you're saying, "this is valuable because it's 10k words long." But 10k words is not long -- it's quite short. Especially compared to almost any other book of prose you might pay $4 for.

I understand that's probably not what you meant, but that's how I interpreted it.
I use wview for running my parent's weather station: http://weather.voots.org/ i can't remember the station type itself now but it works pretty well and stores the data in an sqlite database if you ever want to work with it directly.
It would have to be done carefully, but it doesn't strike me as strictly impossible.

The challenge for a live coding browser environment is proper partitioning of the environment running the editor from the environment running code under development. The JavaScript environment in the browser is not multithreaded, so if the code under development hangs forever (and thanks to the halting problem, you can't guarantee it won't), you'll have a bad time because you can't access your tools to stop the code or modify the behavior.

However, that doesn't mean it's impossible. There are multiple avenues I would suggest exploring that might ameliorate that problem (web workers, wasm, possibly iframes).

As for the question of running racket in the browser in general, there are options. https://cs.brown.edu/~sk/Publications/Papers/Published/yk-wh...

> It is an uncommon status that is usually enacted during legal disputes, non-payment, or when your domain is subject to deletion.

Serious question, if this is an extended legal dispute or the domain is actually subject to deletion, that would be hugely damaging to the Notion brand right?

I ask because I can't think of another company that's had a similar issue lately, so I find the domain dispute an interesting issue that we rarely see get to this stage.
I don't understand how either of these actions show that Google has too much power. Putting a banner on their own website, and experimenting with complying with the legislation, seem like reasonable and measured steps in response to the challenges they face. I feel like any website facing this type of regulation would take similar steps, no matter how big or small. Can you explain?

Should be clear - if my understanding of this is correct, this is the computer reading letters directly from the VISUAL CORTEX. So, this isn't the computer reading a mind, so much as, a computer tapping the visual processing conduit. You probably couldn't "think of a letter" and have the machine figure it out. Something similar but more crude had been achieved in cats (horizontal lines vs vertical lines, using direct electrode implantation), about a decade ago.

What is impressive (if this article is not fraudulent or overinterpreting) is that it's a) done in humans, which realistically shouldn't be too much of a stretch from cats, and b) done non-invasively using MRI. We're NOT entirely sure what we're measuring with fMRI - it's supposedly increased bloodflow to the brain, but what that has to do with voltammetric activity is not 100% sussed out.

Aside: When I was in grad school there was this brilliant girl who somehow got sidetracked and burnt out in the lab she was in, started dropping out for weeks to isolate psychogenic compounds from desert cacti. For her qualifying independent proposal her presentation was basically two powerpoint slides that said "test out LSD in cats". Naturally, she failed, but she had this amazing hypothesis about how LSD works, and I understand why she wanted to do in cats.... And I'm 99% sure she failed to communicate this to her committee. She did, however, get a nice severance package and got to attend Albert Hoffman's 100th birthday party.
An oversimplification of the human individual into nothing more than an analytic system seems very dystopian to me.

The responsibility of getting to know an INDIVIDUAL for who THEY are is a beautiful and expensive journey. Which is why we can only afford it in a minimalist sense i.e. MAYBE one person to fall in love with, MAYBE a family to love, and MAYBE a handful of friends to truly love as well.

However, if what the author seeks (hidden in an array of emotions) is the key to Utopia then that is a different issue. I am honestly not sure if the authors intentions were honestly stated. I am not sure if the author is truly frustrated with people or himself. I do know that taking this article point blank, word for word, as an objectively true and necessary outlook on life is very dangerous.
For what it's worth, Gloria Steinem did not marry until she was 66 years old.

If you watched his presentation earlier this year, you would understand that the partnership and gaining credibility with samsung is crucial in getting them to allow Oculus code/customizations on standard hardware. This is a good faith business partnership - Oculus spends time to make the Samsung Gear VR, Samsung opens up and helps them get to 1.0 consumer edition on the Rift.
Something similar has happened to me, on a smaller scale. I was recently checking my bank account, and noticed a charge from AWS for something like $15. After further investigation, I had apparently been charged this $15 for about 6 months.

Hmm.

Logging into AWS and checking the Cost Explorer showed that I had been charged for a t1.small EC2 instance I had running, but when I logged into the AWS console, all I saw was a single "stopped" instance. There's no way I was being charged for cycles I'm not using, right?

Turns out that the instance I was being charged for was in us-west, and I had only been looking at us-east- and there is no indication within the actual EC2 panel that you have instances in other regions!

I was a bit perturbed, to say the least...
For reference, the linked (and hilarious) Onion Talks video is satire:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tom6_ceTu9s

But the blog post itself isn't. Or at least I'm not sure how quotes like "TED Talks are designed more to create an experience of feeling enlightened than to actually enlighten" could be considered satire.
You're welcome. Popularity might well be some of it, but I think that effect's worn off by now.

I think the main reason has to do with score estimation. With chess, you can say that a queen is worth 8 points and a rook is worth 5 and a bishop's worth 3, and get a quick idea of who's winning a game. In Go, every piece has the same value, and whether a stone is useful depends on which other stones it's connected to, and whether those stones are going to be alive at the end of the game. So just to work out whether you're winning, you have to be able to do search all the way to the end of the game and work out who wins! And computers have been getting that process wrong until recently.

The extra search space doesn't make Go harder for humans too, because humans play both Chess and Go very differently to computers. A human never tries to calculate the value of a million possible moves, so the question of how many million possible moves there are to search through just isn't relevant to a human. Humans play both Chess and Go largely using pattern recognition and insight in a way that computers are not currently able to model.
That sounds very plausible to me.

Makes me wonder what it would take to graft the positional tracking from the DK2 onto something like Samsung Gear.

I don't know about the consumer market, but I can think of numerous commercial applications.

Sony currently sell an HMD for surgical use, allowing for comfortable and convenient viewing of video from endoscopic cameras. A practical translucent HMD would be extremely valuable in surgical procedures guided by x-ray or ultrasonic imagery.

To give a trivial and easily-implementable example, I would have bought Google Glass without hesitation if it integrated with my electronics test equipment. Being able to view data from an oscilloscope or logic analyser without taking my eyes off the PCB would be a boon. PCBs are designed with fiducial markers as a necessary part of manufacture, and machine vision is already used extensively in many aspects of electronics manufacture and repair; It would be relatively straightforward to overlay all sorts of data that would be enormously useful to technicians and engineers.

Stereoscopic and volumetric displays are used extensively in petroleum and mining geophysics; This equipment is currently relatively niche due to extremely high cost, but could be used in a much greater range of geoinformation applications if costs fell.
Yep... You were right, the golang post barely made any good points -- it was more about toolchain implementation rather than the language...

I'm not terribly happy with the 8TB Red model, given it only lasted 3 years. It's also been fairly noisy and running hot.

I have eight 3TB Reds, so far I've had two of those developing pending sectors after over 6 years of power-on time (no spindown), and of those one developed uncorrectable sectors a year later and I replaced it. The other one is chugging along happily so far with 27 pending sectors.

In the case of the WD Red, it went from pending sectors to failing SMART self tests in less than two weeks.

So yeah, disappointed about the short life span.
Clearly nobody here is claiming to be 100% accurate in their predictions. It's still a fun exercise to think about what the future will look like.
I concur.

I try to add as much “human” as possible into my writing and tech interaction.

I feel that we have allowed technology to leech our humanity, and the consequences have been devastating.

When we have people running multi-billion-node datasets, that have no empathy for the essential “humanity” of each node, we can have Jurassic-scale disasters.

How is a company the same as an individual? How do you compare risk the company takes when investing in research, marketing, hiring, etc to a person going to medical school?

This is an apples and oranges comparison at best. If companies were treated exactly as individuals in this case, I don’t think many companies would survive. With less of the pie to go around, that’s effectively fewer jobs and less wealth created for people who work at these companies.
It's the Supreme Court of the United States; there's no higher court for this case to go to -- it's final.

I’m genuinely asking here out of lack of experience — Is it separate but equal, or is it customizing the user experience? I’m not blind but it always seemed weird to me to try and retrofit visual abstractions to someone who may not be as comfortable with those abstractions then to build an experience directly to that user. Mobile sites often have different experiences than desktop sites, and we would say that’s an experience customized for a small screen, not separate but equal. Wouldn’t designing a separate experience from the ground up built for someone with visual impairment be better than fitting them into a system that’s probably wasn’t set out for them in the first place? You’re hampering the experience because you’ll always be biasing for the sighted, unless your ux lead is visually impaired.
Somewhat off topic, but is Signal still tough to use if you have > 1 device?

It used to require you to backup / restore and you couldn't just start a chat on your work computer, continue it on your phone, then continue it on your home computer, while still being able to see the full history on all 3 devices.

Okay, awesome. A janitor/gas station attendant saves his money, invests it wisely and then reinvests his dividends over and over again. He lives far below his means and never discusses it with anyone, including his children and friends. I love it. Good heart felt American, good guy does good and makes good money. I am like this, in that I invest in mutual funds, watch the stock market and live below my means. Makes me feel good.

However, what's the point of living like that? You are making $20,000 a month and you don't spend it in your retirement!? WTF. What is the point of living to 91 and being worth $8 million when you die if you don't enjoy it. Great, this guy did everything right, now his kids get to enjoy the money. If anything, sounds like this guy squandered his money by not enjoying it, unless sitting back and counting your $8 million is the most thrilling thing ever.

These stories are just, look, work your ass off, save money and your kids can enjoy it. Forget that! What's the damn point?
