It's low enough that robots will do it in 5 years. No amount of down votes is going to stop that. Lol @ hacker news burying this obvious technical advancement in the name of mythical unicorn unionism.
I can use a 5 one-handed.

The mini I cannot.
It very well might. Bitcoin has first mover, an easier and better name, and more awareness behind it, but ETH might eventually take over. I'm rooting for both (and for bitcoin to eventually find a better solution to its power issues).
It might look like that. But it doesn't. At least not yet. Have a look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_center_of_the_United_Stat...
Yes, of course. I agree. Nothing I wrote contradicts that :-)
Python uses Timsort[1]. They provide benchmarks and details at [2].

South Korea also has really beautiful landscapes. I wish it was possible to explore the northern part. Maybe one day.
What makes you think they are not scared? Fear is smart and necessary. Keeps you alive. As long as you control the fear and not the other way round.
The numbers above are an exaggeration. I lived in the north end of manhattan (the part furthest from JFK) and an hour to get to JFK was on the long side - typical is probably 40-80 minutes. It doesn't take two hours to clear security at an airport either - typical is anywhere from 10 to 45 minutes.
I enjoyed the article as I haven't been exposed to much Rust yet, but I was disappointed that the intro didn't match the content

The second sentence:

> I want a language where I can be much more productive than in C: one in which I do not fear the correctness of my memory management, and don’t have to go through major gyrations to write concurrent code.

And we see no explicit demonstrations of the memory management and no demonstrations at all of the concurrency model. It feels like the author had a more fleshed out post in mind, but either decided it was running too long or got bored before reaching the conclusion. :\
Thanks Prakash, I'll definitely check your offering and reach out when we have the need! It sounds cool even though I can't help but feel I would like really tight control over that part - basically we would be dependant on your service instead.
Something isn't quite right about this article. First the author compares the rise in cookies prices compared to inflation instead of commodity prices. This was a red flag to me that was repeated more than once.

Fuel and food prices have been rising sharply these past few years. I'm not a commodities expert so maybe someone with more insight can help, but this chart looks like wheat prices went up 50% in 2010 alone and are double what they were in 1995.

This has been in the news quite a bit.

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2011/03/16/business/main20043...

So that $2.50 pack of white label cookies from WalMart was probably $1 way back in 1995. It's not surprising that the $2 pack of Girl Scout cookies from 1995 is $4 today.

There was an awful lot of text and analysis for completely missing this point.

To the author's other complaint that cookies are cost inefficient, all of these cookie sale type fundraisers (e.g. bake sales, car washes, popcorn sales, magazine sales, cheese and sausage sales) are obviously less efficient than direct donations. But I suppose they serve a few other purposes than fund raising. Scouts potentially learn life skills about working and business instead of how to beg for money with tangible benefits for the troop. The proliferation of cookie boxes are free advertising real estate in millions of offices and homes that lead to greater participation and perhaps more donations than if the Girl Scouts solicited for donations directly. Those are just a couple of reasonable explanations off the top of my head before jumping to accusations of corruption most high.
The fact that it's linear actually hints that the distribution of digits is actually random: the probability of 0 in any position other than the first and the last is indeed approaching 1/10, as n goes to infinity.
Create tools that are useful for your own service delivery and particularly for scaling your particular service business.

These tools are built from what you're already using to address the problems that your customers are experiencing.

Then solidity, test, and package them, and use them to reach other customers in your target business.

Even if the products don't work out profitably (or if you decide not to sell them separately), these products still solve issues you're having, and to deliver your services more efficiently.
I think both of these links illustrate that errors happen, mistakes happen, software has bugs, and murphy's law always strikes. The question is, when it strikes, do you have enough control to fix the problem? If you've outsourced the solution, does the provider have enough control/knowledge to fix the problem?

These things will get much worse before they get better, and it's best to think of all these abstractions as being a double edge sword.
Most of the video games my wife and I played during late childhood stretched and exercised our brains, despite not being classified as "edutainment".

Games like Descent led to extremely developed spatial reasoning skills. Games like Nethack led to a level of meticulousness and a never-give-up, use-every-trick-in-the-book mentality. Games like Starcraft helped develop a sense of complex system dynamics. I was consistently observing the environment, solving puzzles, making tradeoffs and efficiency decisions (do I skip this area? Is it worth crossing that lava to get that powerup?), learning diligence and persistence, and doing controlled experiments to teach me about the games.

I also played a fair number of "edutainment" titles, including one my dad coded himself in the early 1980s, and many of those on your list. They were quite good and certainly helped me exercise my brain, but not to the degree that games like Descent, Starcraft, and Nethack did.
I think that's a bad example. What basically happened is that an odd ex-boyfriend passed around pictures, and one of those people put it on the internet and tried to blackmail her. It's not too different to the whole myexbitch thing.

The real internet villains are the ones who need no provocation, and go after people far innocenter than people who let their boyfriend take nude pictures. Like what Anon did with the Sony exec families, that (didn't by far) could have gone horribly wrong if a internet-only psycho got enough of that information.
Since I'm not a US tax payer I should be careful. Its true, SpaceX would not be where they are today without massive government support.

But consider the following.
First, they are a lot more cost efficient. The Falcon Heavy is supposed to be 6 times cheaper per ton to LEO than the Delta IV Heavy. This can save the US government as well as many companies around the world lots of money.

Second, the ability to jump in, just when the, expensive, shuttle program runs out seems to be very helpful for the USA as a - if not the - space nation. Without SpaceX the US would depend on Russia to send astronauts to the ISS and anywhere else in space for many, many years.

Also, I would be careful about dissing "space tourists". Many of the so called tourists have actually done scientific experiments in space. I believe most of them did not fly, so they can show the "I was there" pics at home. No, they wanted to be astronauts since they were little boys, more than anything else in the world! This is pure speculation, but if NASA would auction their astronaut positions to people who match the minimum requirements, they might be profitable tomorrow.

Same goes for Elon Musk and Mars. I've read many times, he is a betrayer and just wants make money at the SpaceX IPO. I know you didn't state this and maybe its actually true. But I don't believe it. I think he and others really want to have humans on Mars and if possible they want to fly by them self. I find it totally plausible that the first manned mission to Mars will be financed by the crew and their private supporters. Just consider how much people pay to be the XXXth person to be on Mount Everest. And thats arguable not less dangerous, let alone the hardship in the death zone.
How much would be the final prize on a auction that determines who will likely be the first human in history on a different planet?

Last but not least, whats wrong about Grunman and the Lunar Module? From the wikipedia article you cited:
"Though initially unpopular and plagued with several delays in its development, the LM eventually became the most reliable component of the Apollo/Saturn system, the only one never to suffer any failure that significantly impacted a mission,[1] and in at least one instance (LM-7 Aquarius) greatly exceeded its design requirements."
Also worth noting is that Amazon isn't forcing you to use EBS. They also have tons of fast local storage available to RAID as you wish.
But he doesn't quite make it clear if he wants it done for every memory allocation, or that specific type of allocation. The two have very different results.
Just wait until systemd provides you with a hard-coded filesystem a tcp/ip stack and a "better" alternative to wayland. We then call it duolith-OS, your full OS with just two monoliths (Linux and sytemd).
Exercism.io looks interesting. I wonder though, how is it free though?
I'm not sure bursting in with an "EXCEPT!" is quite the correct response to a satirical bible quote.
All it took for someone to write an article about what a terrible idea Mars is, was Elon Musk to promote it.
Steve works at Oxide Computer and they are hiring. :)

Calling it now: for all the hate Zuckerberg gets now, he's going to be Bill Gates in 25 years, and they only people who won't trust him are the vaccine mind control nuts.
Very interesting, thanks!

That sounds fascinating. Would be very interesting to read more about your IoT fleet, tasks, and deployment with that stack.
Defending against an DoS-attack costs money. People try to spend as few money as possible.

So, the theory is that the attacker wants github to take the repos down by making it costly to not do so.
How is that any easier than just pushing one hardware button?
At my apartment, I have to walk a bit of distance from my car to get inside... When I get deliveriesp, they come right to my door.
I really like your animations! What library is that?

My only concern is that you call this a "simple note taking app". Taking a look here: https://github.com/asm-products/notello it's anything but simple! Not only are you selling yourself short but to a user new to react, they might think "Great, I can learn from this!" and it's actually quite complicated!

I've been doing JS for many years and you're the first project I've seen with a "gulp" folder for example! I still don't even know what that's for (vs a gulpfile.js).

I think I would just say "Notello: A note taking app" :)
I was thinking of exactly that absolute sense. I consider that sense trivial, in that it won't ever affect our economic situation. (I assume we'll have some other way of making plastics centuries from now when extraction tech finally stops improving.)
The zip code issue should now be fixed.

E.g. try "76131" on the German site and you'll see jobs/companies in Karlsruhe, Germany.

Do the same search on the U.S. and you'll see results from Fort Worth, TX.
1 word, mindreading.
Ah, but it will be a full-blown app - the plumbing is there :-)

Yes, but I'm able to access any funds on hold up to my overdraft limit immediately without paying interest so practically it's instant.
> it's still supposed to be enjoyable. Clearly homeless people in the game are impeding some peoples enjoyment and it's a problem that is not obvious to solve.

This tough boss is impeding my enjoyment of this RPG because I can't mindlessly beat it.

This tough level in an FPS is impeding my enjoyment of later levels because I can't beat it.

I can't place first in this tough racing track and that is impeding my ability to enjoy it.

Homelessness is a challenge to approach however you want. It only becomes a problem in huge cities with rapid middle and upper class expansion, ie, the late game. So if you get stuck and have a skill wall in front of you to overcome but can't, that is not a deficit of the game, that is the whole reason the game exists, to impose challenge and difficulty to overcome.
Thanks for releasing it.

Was thinking about using Ansible for some time, but haven't. Now this is easy to get started.
Yes, by article's definition any open bottle is 0 volume.
The other big one (as another poster noted below) is server log files. Those may be accessible to someone who shouldn't necessarily have access to the data.
Even as an outsider it's beyond obvious there is no leadership or vision other than cut costs.

After Brandon left, Unifi went to shit. There hasn't been one significant feature or major function added to Unifi since then. Routing hasn't move at all in 7 years. Well, in a recent beta you can now have multiple WAN IP addresses. Whooppee. Switching hasn't gained anything - layer 3 is utter missing. QoS? Good luck.

Unifi is fine for networks with simple needs, good for prosumer use or small businesses - but if you start to scale requirements it falls over pretty quick.

It was very promising when routing/switching was added to Unifi - but it's never been fully realized :(
The 25th percentile student at MIT gets a 790 math SAT, it's 730 for language. Difference between 790 and 800 is basically luck. It's at the point where the test can only hurt you not help you.

There's no upside, but if you don't prepare, or happen to have a bad day, it can ruin your chances. For students applying to MIT-caliber schools it's a hoop to jump through, not an opportunity to distinguish themselves.

I am honestly curious how the MIT admissions office is able to use the SAT to predict anything about student success, given a huge majority of the students got a nearly perfect score. It seems like there should be almost no signal.

I see this dumbshit rhetoric more and more, but do people actually think this? It feels like someone on the peak of Mt. Stupid from the Dunning Kruger effect would say...
I think that GBS has resumed, or at least that the Ngram Viewer is now sourcing data from sources updated since ~2000 -- 2008, the previous cutoff year.

(I cannot readily find a source confirming the first point. The second is confirmed through a Tweet: http://nitter.cc/searchliaison/status/1282797986863386624)
Thank you, oh expert on rotating/pulsating objects and some surrounding graphical effects, timed with music. I am humbled.
Tell that to Boeing: https://www.nytimes.com/2011/12/10/business/labor-board-drop...

I'm pretty sure no one wants to start a dispute almost guaranteed 0-1 before an appeals court that may or may not be sympathetic to your plight.

Even in Boeing's case, which was incredibly high-profile, they decided on an a very expensive settlement rather than fight the case.
I never used Tailwind but given its popular modern look, I wonder why there is a lack of open source React components built on top of it?
The FBI has a long-standing pattern of abusive and harassing behavior.

They harass potential employers of innocent people out on bail awaiting trial.

They even sent MLK Jr anonymous letters telling him to kill himself.

Of course, you can't sue them over any of this.

Policing in the USA is a national shame, riddled with illegal behavior from the local level all the way up to the top, with few or no repercussions for the perpetrators.
Yeah, if people try to poste the actual embed code than the URL it's ugly. I'll fix that and come up with a suitable error.
We use a couple of peer-based spam filtering services, generally they tend to be quite agressive. They've been successful in testing so far with the odd false positive.
If you didn't have an image or embed, or your post set of a filter, check the very top of the page.

Errors in posts are at the top of the page, an idea I borrowed from Stack Overflow.

In testing, though, people don't like this, so I'll move the error messages next revision.
Good. Along with London's efforts (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-11689437) we could be seeing even more startups with new and well-executed ideas, which can only be a good thing for the world.
"Identify the exact size and offset, in pixels, of the mosaic tiles used to blur the original image (easy)"

I don't see that this is easy. Surely you have to test a number of offsets and sizes of text? And without knowing the digits, this is not going to be totally accurate.
I would suggest a way to see how many comments have been made on each photo. Fantastic blog, I'm enjoying all the content so far. Also when an image is clicked it would be great to see the full size. For example there is a long image file that has been shrunk down so all the text is unreadable.
Ack, will do in next revision.

Edit: done - comment count and full size images now running.
Oh yeah, I get that: FB just to prove you're a real person and tag you to something other than an IP and cookie. Still anonymous.

True: re how to focus that - I'm all ears.
> I know that the most common advice would be, speak to him. I am not considering it. Because it might turn out to be a false alarm I would be assigned a module which I am not interested in.

So, the title of this article should instead be "I am ignoring my boss".

It's entirely possible that your boss is sitting in their office thinking about their employee that avoids them constantly and shows no initiative to involve themselves in new projects.

I don't mean to say this in a derogatory way, but I've worked with people that describe their work environment like you did in the OP. They get fired, say they knew it was coming, then blame everything but themselves.

You know what the most common advice is and you actively shun it.

Until you take some initiative, engage with your fellow humans and own up to your insecurities, you will always feel like the world is conspiring against you. It's not. The world largely doesn't care about you, doesn't remember you and is fine discarding motionless parts in the machine.

MAKE yourself useful, or accept that you didn't.
Stopped shaving?
We don't have just Facebook or just Twitter or just Youtube. There are tons of social media platforms on the internet - those are simply the most popular. The younger generations don't even use Facebook, they consider it a boomer platform.
There are shells in that list which do exactly that, inc my own shell (murex).

It’s very hard to describe a shell in a short paragraph because it’s a tool that crosses a range of domains, such as

- interactive development environment (autocompletion, et al)

- REPL environment / one liners

- programming language

- plus support for miscellaneous POSIX features such as job management
kaniko is great but doesn't have feature parity with native docker build. Notably kaniko is missing everything related to BuildKit.

> So...free is a meaningless concept?

Not at all. It is, however, not the whole story. Free to you doesn't tell us who is paying.
Sorry, I didn't mean to imply this was new, just that I found it interesting. Was there a previous discussion on HN?
