So many cities/regions in the USA are simply broken by design in terms of having central business locations and urban sprawl living locations. Too many cities optimized around the highway which let greedy developers and poor urban planners dictate the present conditions of impossible congestion and the inability to have an effective mass transit system due to lack of population density.

Simply put, that model doesn't scale and we are now seeing it affect more and more cities. Not to mention that urban sprawl is expensive to maintain in terms of roads, highways, sewers and utilities being consumed by people living so far apart and in low density areas.

I propose we begin building planned cities focused on population density and mass transit that people actually want to use. Build up, not out. Share spaces like parks and have lots of little ones. Essentially, inherit from NYC where you don't have to, or even want to, own a car.
So, tossing H1B would be a great start at immigration reform. Instead, we should prefer immigrants with educational backgrounds in skills we need, and who have the best chance at assimilation.

Isn't that basically how Canada and Australia's visa programs work?
Note also the date.
Isn't there a social problem in calling something genetic in that regardless of what genetic component may be a factor, it absolves one of personal responsibility. It reminds me of the "chocolate and wine are good for you" news stories. Very pleasing news, but ultimately net harmful.
I'm glad that you like my early stage product.
The Uber controversy showed me what journalism is all about. It's ok for them to dig as much dirt on you as possible and present half-facts, but they go into a rage the moment you question their motives and try to find any info on them.
anti-capitalism feelings are also strong in many EU countries

Where?
Sure you can bake 3fa into your applcation.

Hashicorp vault has something like this to generate a root token. You can split your unseal key according to shamirs secret sharing. You can bring together a specified number of unseal key shards and generate a new root token with them. The app had endpoints to manage all this. You could create your own app with your own endpoints with similar functionality.

I don't think there are cryptographic primitives to give you this easily, without some trust logic baked into the app layer.
I frequently ask myself, if Hitler took power today - how many of our government officials, engineers, and soldiers, would get in line behind him. He would have no problem getting the census data and locations of subversives.
They mentioned this is google cloud, which blocks almost all incoming ports by default. they had to have chose to expose this through the project firewall, and not put in a source filter.
Should look at Clubhouse for org wide project management . Integrates tightly with GitLab. Soon to release full Confluence replacement too
Conservative talk radio has made Tesla and Elon Musk, one of the top 5 villains to rural America for years.

The Tesla Pickup was never going to make inroads there. The way is blocked.

They are focusing entirely on the small but growing market of democrats who demand EV's, and may also need a truck.
They are close enough that the relationship between them is graspable to the human mind, if the numbers themselves are not. Take the unimaginable 10^77, put it in a box. Now imagine a thousand boxes. That's 10^80. Of course a thousand times an unimaginable number is astronomically bigger on a linear scale, but if you just look at the relationship between the two numbers it's imaginable.
Compositing required a hardware change to work efficiently but it's not like you just slap a you into a win9x box and your desktop is now composited.
I think quicklisp is a great system, but didn't asdf do the same thing? It would download and install packages for you just like ql, so I'm wondering what the obvious advantages of ql are over asdf-install, other than being the hot new thing.
Very excited about this, especially since nginx also has robust embedded Lua support through lua-nginx-module. Nginx+redis+lua is fast becoming my favorite stack for frontend stuff.
Somebody installs wp-super-cache[0] in that poor dying Wordpress blog.

budgeting software - needs to do basic debit/credit and then have sophisticated features for budgeting and comparing how you are doing against the budget

commission - calculate sales person commissions and display them real time so salespeople know exactly how much they will get paid and when (i.e. like with car dealerships)

pricing - simple solution to help small businesses test elasticity of pricing to maximize their gross profits

free quickbooks hosting in the cloud - enables some of the above because it allows you to get access to the data
It's worth noting in this context that the SETI Institute is a private organization, not a government agency.
I used to use del.icio.us as a sort of online magazine. I would read the feed for posts tagged "python" and see all the blog posts about Python that people were reading that day. My usage was very similar to the way people use Twitter and Hacker News today.
I read it same as you, but to me needing a new router isn't "a challenge", it's an obvious requirement that you know about before deciding to upgrade your connection. Same as needing to own some sort of networked device such as a computer in order to use any internet connection.
I think it's mostly useful to keep track of all of the interesting stuff you've found on the web, so you can quickly find "that interesting article you remember reading about the javascript 'this' keyword" without searching the entire internet.

The social part is, I think, less interesting but occasionally handy (ex. here are all the interesting things I've read about javascript recently: http://www.delicious.com/tlianza/javascript ) and I think the aggregated data could be interesting, but as Digg's woes have shown, it's proven challenging to make a compelling experience around it.
Code written by the user is still forbidden, though Apple are really sketchy as to what they consider "external interpreted code" versus just "a document." To a large degree, it seems like a question of marketing. If the feature feels like writing a program, the reviewers will reject it. I am not sure how sophisticated the calculator you're thinking of is. It's possible Apple could see it as just storing formulae, which they'd be OK with. Tough to say.

(And for anyone who thinks I'm splitting hairs: The line between "document" and "program" really is fuzzy. For example, Little Big Planet's game engine turns out to be Turing-complete, so you can build a working computer in the level editor out of game objects. See here for more: http://forums.xkcd.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=57034 )
It's funny, I started to write a reply explaining my love of Delicious. But the more I articulated the reasons, the more I realized I loved what it was, and don't really use it anymore.

1. Before browsers could sync my bookmarks across multiple computers, posting them to delicious was the best way to have access to them anywhere.

2. Before instapaper let me save articles to read later, Delicious was a great way to have a tagged backlog of things to explore whenever I have freetime.

3. Before Twitter, the best way to know what your favorite developers or designers were thinking about was to follow what they were bookmarking on Delicious.

4. Before HN, looking at the usage of tags and stories per tag helped me figure out what technologies or topics were growing in popularity and find out what to read first about them.
I started weight lifting in my Air Force days, about 35 years ago. I've kept at it regularly since then and am convinced it's good for overall health.

About a year ago, I got a shoulder injury doing bench press. (Not the first time, but this one was from a lighter weight and it lasted longer.) I saw an older gentleman in the gym this week and thought I'd ask him how he keeps from getting injured.

The older gent (his name is Ralph) said he recommends lots of warmups. He was benching pretty good, about half of what I was, I think I do ok for a mid-50s weightlifter. Ralph looked pretty fit, but his hair was totally silver. I was floored when he mentioned he has a son that's 61!

I remain committed. I think it's really good for health.
Got it, we'll fix it today.
How is this new in 2019, as the article states? Fully homomorphic encryption has been around for at least a decade. There’s even a hedge fund (numerai) that crowdsources its quantitative modeling based on an implementation of FHE since 2015.
If you feel strongly about a feature request on an open source project.... you know maybe actually do the work and not just wine about it? This is why people stop doing open source, these type of people with their weird feeling of entitlement reporting issues.
Thanks for confirming & your feedback!
You can see this beginning in roughly 2011 when the Occupy Wallstreet protests start to fracture. This was when Starbucks began advocating for anti-racist policy (why? they make money selling permutations of coffee and milk) and a bunch of other corporations chimed in. The 99% movement quickly splintered off into anti-racist memes and whirled into Third Wave Feminism + needs for "inclusion" and "intersectionality" and whatever terms the Wallstreet-backed Left felt best to appease the working poor and working lower-middle class of academics and journalists (who are basically working poor now, but would not like to admit it).

So when you say:
>Today's western progressivism is taken hostage by the elite.

I agree. In fact, there is likely evidence that it was manufactured by the elite. This discussion is heading to the territory of Hypernormalisation[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yS_c2qqA-6Y], a film I recommend.
The issue that led to this bug report: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/35326
As someone who works at those very companies, I have to say that the code itself isn’t worth that much - everything that’s not a utility package will definitely get rebuilt. Nor is the idea, the only value proposition is existing customers and potential patents for software startups.
I hate to say this, but I do "everything" (exclusions apply - I am not a data scientist, nor would I know what's involved until I get involved). I am not going to say I am a master of x thing, but it is enough for the purpose of scaling, proper architecture / code quality / etc.

Any areas I lack, I am given the time to research into it, provide available options to management, then build it out solo or with a team.

If it's solo, it eventually is handed over to a team once in production or until the next big project comes across my way.

Also, I have spent a lot of time building rapport with important people that it is easy to get things started when multiple teams are involved (eg integration of multiple systems). I guess knowing how to deal with internal politics is another value-add.

Having institutional knowledge - if you were the original designer of a system (or multiple for that matter), you also become more valuable as you know how things work internally.

I have been doing this for more than 15 years.

Most of all, coding is my hobby. I'm extremely passionate about it, and work on projects outside of work (I have a home lab setup that I build things on, for example). I love reading articles on HN, and programming language reddits to discover what's new.

It's useful to know what's out there so when you encounter a problem, you'll have a lightbulb moment and go, "Oh, I remember reading about this.", and start to dive deeper into the subject matter.

Salary progression went like this at various large companies / startups:

- 100k

- 120k

- 140k

- 155k

- 175k

- 200k

- 340k

I have never been at a FAANG company, not a manager, and my time is spent 100% coding (if not on research).

I'm not saying you need to do what I do to command that kind of salary - it will be different for everyone. I'm describing what I think I'm doing to get that amount.
The first article you have quoted does not support your claim that the reporting was that it was an obviously bad decision to not join. In fact, here’s the first half of the first sentence from that article:

> Choosing the security of their traditional isolation and neutrality over the risks and opportunities offered by Europe

It mentions both risks and opportunities, which hardly sounds like a claim that there is an obvious economic cost.

Most of the article was about how it reflects a growing divide between the industrial/business and rural sides of Switzerland.

The closest statement claiming that there would be downsides refers not to joining the EEC specifically, but regional blocs in general.

> The country's political and economic establishment argued that the country would lose its competitive edge if it resisted the movement toward regional economic blocs. Some leading business executives and bankers even warned that investment would drop and unemployment would grow.

And while Switzerland has not joined the EU, it has definitely greatly integrated with the EU, even adopting EU laws in order to be access the single market.
It seems a bit arbitrary to call Neanderthals a separate species if we bred with them? Why classify them as another species?
Yet, paradoxically, the economic golden era of post-WW2 United States from 1946-1969 was entirely on a gold standard.
"Absorbed" implies humans out left finger emoji plus okay sign emoji'ed Neanderthals either by better game or higher reproductive rates. Perhaps Neanderthals of both genders found humans of the opposite gender generally more attractive than their own kind? (Hybrid vigor hypothesis?)
French fries are an American invention. “Frenched” (thin sliced) fries. Belgian fries are just fries.
You can even use opDispatch to generate methods or values of a class at compile time based on the name, Python __getitem__/JavaScript Proxy/Ruby style.
Could you explain a bit for those not familiar with US "progressive" stuff? What does she not prosecute and why, and why is that a problem? How left are we talking about?
Someone’s bonus and job depends on them appearing “innovative”.
IANAL, but from what I have heard from lawyers here in Canada, cutting %20 of your salary all other things being equal is considered a "constructive dismissal" and you can sue your employer for that.
Well, "daemonless" is kind of marketing - there is still this daemon-per-container 'conmon' thing https://github.com/containers/conmon and I don't get why it is needed because 1) who actually needs to re-attach anyway? 2) container's streams are already properly handled by whatever supervisor (e.g. systemd). You can't disable conmon and I'm not sure if its usage is not hardcoded throughout the codebase.

I would very much like to use Podman as a finally proper container launcher in production (non-FAANG scale - at which you maybe start to need k8s), but having an unnecessary daemon moving part in thousands lines of C makes me frown so far.
I've heard that too but I think there are at least efforts to support Scala 3.

Having said that I think Quill looks nicer (https://getquill.io/) if you want a DSL like that.

Come on man. He literally said logging into GMail should be ok since it doesn't use IDFA and I am saying it is not as per Apple's guidelines.
If I buy a BTC for $30,000, then later decide to sell it for $47,000, Paypal will lose $17,000 if they didn't actually have a BTC somewhere in their vault.

This is the same idea as bucket shop operations that "trade" stocks with their clients without actually processing trades on any exchange.

When prices are rising, with new buyers available, then a bucket shop can do just fine for themselves. As soon as they have more sellers than buyers, at a price higher than they came in, the shop is the one that has to cover the difference.
I can't answer the question well, but I think the opposite is just as valid a question: What does a daemon buy you in practice? Why do you need to run the Docker daemon if it is possible (as appears so from podman's existence) to do the same thing without a daemon?
For all Canadians reading this, try WealthSimple Tax (previously SimpleTax). It's pay what you want, and it's a solid product. Nonetheless, tax software should be provided for free by the tax organization (IRS, CRA, etc), it's so stupid to pay for doing your taxes, unless you really need an accountant...
Even within Manhattan there can be huge differences across the island for otherwise comparable properties, particularly as you go north of the park.
Asking this question is exactly why they shouldn't take VC money.

Instead of running around trying to find an answer for "how will you be worth a billion dollars?!?!?!!!!" they should be figuring out where their market is.
What the world really needs is more people who figure out ways for the billions of us who do have a little extra time or money to help solve the big and small problems. It's cool that we can help kickstart the VR revolution or the future of wearables:

But it'd been even cooler if we could help solve some of the harder problems.
It's not just an image transform, because it has to create facial features that were occluded in the original. (And correctly occluded existing features when the head turns.)

In the video with the sunglasses, for instance, the computer had to invent that ear on our left. (With mixed results -- it looks a bit like Mike Tyson got at it.)
To be fair, GTP-3 is, by actual human standard, totally stupid.
I feel like human noises within your apartment should not be cause for eviction. If other people can listen to you, then the apartment is substandard and your privacy is at risk. Those walls are supposed to protect you from having neighbors casually spy on you.

Now, it'd be different if you were experimenting with a pulse detonation wave engine. That would be worthy of eviction.
CS is full of proofs that use all possible words or word sequence. The real test is if somebody actually wrote it in an undecipherable wikipedia page.
I had two questions after reading the headline:

(1) What is a Bin Washer
(2) Why do they have wheels?

Neither was answered in the article.

1*, would not recommend.
> all these tutorials seems to be too much time commitment -- unfortunately I don't have that much time.

There's quite a bit of content there. I'm not sure what your threshold for much time is, but don't expect to dive into more than basics in <10h.

An alternative for practical application would be just to look at what you actually use and dive deep. For example two concepts: routing tables and TCP/IP header - go to the articles on wikipedia, and go deeper into things you don't know about.
Another possibility - most high-paying jobs require home internet.
This would be very useful for those who work on a netbook or a thin client. Besides, people do use Google Docs even though they have a full fledged document editing software on their machines.
My brother is writing his thesis in Economics soon and we live at different ends of our country. I'm trying to convince him that Latex is the way to go and being able to do online help sessions would help a lot.

Besides, to someone who has only ever used WYSIWYG installing compilers and the like is really complicated.
It's a bit unclear in this case, but I did read the old (well, 2008) blog-post that I think started this particular trend as implying the run-down-and-isolated meaning: http://journal.relativesanity.com/2008/11/18/php-is-a-ghetto...

It's arguing something like: you can get some things done in PHP, but it's this walled-in, limiting environment that you'll never flourish in, unless you find a way to escape it and break out of the "PHP programmer" box. It even comes with a bit of a cultural/economic walling in also, with the connotations of the "PHP programmer" label.

With language/library environments there seems to at least be the potential for that sort of metaphorical isolation and limitation. I've heard people worry about whether there's a "Lisp ghetto" in that sense, especially post-1990s. That said, I agree that for this particular series of two posts, it doesn't seem to add much. It's something more like, "the Ruby stdlib is bad / no it isn't".
There were some download links for an SDK and instructions. I didn't download anything right away (stupidly), and when I came back a couple hours later, all that stuff was replaced by this "currently on hold" message. Sigh.

EDIT: You can see info about SDK stuff on Google's cached version of some pages.

EDIT 2: You can still download the SDK here:

You should definitely try the following:

1. SeoMoz - Nice articles and posts about SEO tips and techniques (www.seomoz.org)

2. websitegrader.com (Seems popular but haven't used it extensively)

3. Google Trends - See what topics are trending on Google Search and tweak your site content accordingly. (www.google.com/trends)

4. Google Insights - See what terms are more common during search and adjust your site content, meta tags and titles accordingly. (http://www.google.com/insights/search/)

5. Google Webmaster Tools - Monitor your Google rankings and more. (www.google.com/webmasters/)

6. Monitor your page rank and presence on other high traffic websites. (www.popuri.us)

7. Must read blog for all webmasters - googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com
I dont think he is stressing the ease of doing this with credit card numbers. The sample space he is suggesting generating is far too large... You can usually identify the first several digits simply by the issuing organization, as they all use standardized numbers, the remaining digits must pass a certain checksum algorithm. So really generating a bunch of valid cc numbers is quite trivial. Matching exp dates with numbers and ccv numbers.. Different story.

But i wonder what the limits to effectiveness is on this attack. I usually randomly swirl around with a smear tool to blur out things...
Possibly Tom Coates?
The discussion about being open source has been extensively debated. In order to change the economics of open source, we believe you need to do things differently. At the moment we are not open source because we need to get the project off the ground. We believe that in order to grow to a suitable level where we can talk about becoming open source, we need to have the control and swiftness of a proprietary startup to be able to first establish a marketplace that proves this new business model. Please note that we are all for becoming open source in the future.
Not exactly. What Theranos has done is to make clear in its aftermath why the problem of making a diagnosis from a single drop of blood is difficult. In short, the sample size is too small and may not contain biomarkers of the diseases of interest even if they are present in the body. Unless this advancement in its application can show how and why this is not a problem, there will be resistance towards accepting what is being put out without further substantiating evidence.
They can patch the bug but they can never take back all the data that was leaked over that encrypted-not-encrypted channel.
Makes sense, every high school student in the US gets random college mail as soon as they take the SAT
This is a dangerous calculator. It misses the cost of deployment, integration, internal support, etc.

(This can be significantly larger for the purchased solution then an internal one as well)
