Don't underestimate the idiocy of traffic planners. In my town we have roundabouts and stoplights on the roads leading in.
Where does Arrington get off, calling for the head of Yahoo's CEO without once disclosing that he's owned by a major competitor?

That said, I don't have much issue with the content.
you want everything to be local. local should be the default. Thou shalt not be implicitly global.
I watched it. I wasn't blown away. I don't remember it with enough detail to recognize random quotations.

are you serious? "wild protest" is about as ambiguous as you can get. There's no call for violence with the word "wild" any more than a "wild party" is a call for violence.
What's your definition of “republic” here? You seem to see it as an opposite to democracy. I'd posit that democracy and republic (in the true sense of res publica, “public affair”) cannot be separated.
Go to the middle east and you'll see what killing rioters looks like. Its not protests anymore, it turns into literal wars that devastate cities and innocent peoples lives.
It's like saying: your spouse is being assaulted, stay peaceful and go home.
well I'm just generalizing about assets in general. I don't believe in Bitcoin but I want to know who are selling these Bitcoins in large numbers?
The wiki article seems like a reasonable defense to prevent corporate raiders from taking over and loading it up with debt while walking away with a fortune for basically crippling a once successful company. See KKR's takeover of TXU electric.
Where did I say browser?

Separate apps (and protocols), instead of jamming everything through web, is a feature, not a bug. There is (or was anyway) more to the internet than HTTPS.
Spend two weeks reading SEOMoz and SEOBook like it is your job. Then, do SEO. I'd pay particular attention to the parts where programming is an unfair advantage, such as scalable content creation. (See blog Greatest Hits for lots of discussion of this.)
Blame isn't as black and white as you are making out.

If the police have a duty of care to witnesses, and the Mafia kill them, then the police should take some blame. Not as much as the mafia. Think of a witness protection program, if they fail at their task then they are partially to blame.

So no, I am not trying to paint it all as being US' fault, you can tell that because I wrote "insurgents fired".
This is my experience. It is so much easier to get a Post Doc up to speed in Fortran, than pretty much any other language. The best case scenario is that professional programmers write the frameworks and infrastructure, and that non-programers produce subroutines and other functional parts of the code. The worst case scenario is when the entire code base is produced by non-programmers...
thank you for your percipient comments. encryption it is. what do you think of lavaboom. i guess we have to wait for dark mail protocol
thank you. does seem rather pointless after that read. encryption seems like the solution..
In my gut, I sympathize with what you're saying. When I think about it though, I know digital or generative art need not be any less than an artistic work than a painting.

It's unfortunate for many digital artists that "in the gut" is where wider artistic appreciation lies. But I imagine film also took awhile for the societal gut-feels to embrace. I hope that happens
In case of giants like Google - agree. Thanks.
But then again things were better back then. Actually I’d like to go back there now.
spending 9.5 hours at work doesn't mean they were actually working for the whole 9.5 hours. There are onsite gyms, cafes, author appearances, clubs for various interests, running errands, etc. Going to the gym in particular is a big part of a lot of people's workday.
When you replace all the social functions of the state with a collection of privatised NGOs, those NGOs just become the state and you are back to square one, only with even less representation.
How about this: http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1469676 (a Bayesian interpretation of federal rule of evidence 401). More generally, the FRE and the FRCP are really amenable to the sort of system analysis that comes naturally to engineers.

[Warning: severe geekery ahead]

E.g. consider 28 U.S.C. 1446, which governs when a case filed in state court can be removed to federal court by the defendant. Not all cases are removable--the case can be heard in federal court only if federal jurisdiction exists. However, cases are removed immediately upon filing a notice of removal--if the plaintiff contests federal jurisdiction, she has to file a motion to remand in the federal court.

Why do it this way instead of having filing a motion to remove in the state court and waiting for a decision on whether the case is removable? Because it decreases the latency of the whole procedure to let things get going in federal court and figuring out after the fact whether removal was proper. Usually, removal will have been proper and no remand will be necessary. This sort of pattern should be familiar to any engineer--this is exactly what a CPU does when it predicts a taken branch, starting execution of the branch target before resolving the branch condition. It decreases the latency of the branch, and because mispredicts are rare, the CPU rarely has to flush the speculatively-executed instructions.
To summarize, the article suggests making the "software science" job title to:

* "reduce career path anxiety"
* "enhance engineering organizations' self-understanding"
* "advance the general understanding of the right way to develop software"
* "raise awareness about the sponsoring engineering organization"
* "bring out some of those 'big picture' thinkers from the woodwork"

The third point is the only one close to the traditional role of a scientist, though "general understanding" takes more than data and statistics from a single organization. Otherwise, this seems to be a pretty blatant misappropriation of the name "scientist"!

That's not a bad idea, actually.

Ideally the article would contain (in a comment or some hidden field) a signature from the PGP key of the app's developer, covering both the version number and the date of release (to stop replay/rollback attacks).

Alternatively, the app could look at the article history and find the latest edit made by the developer's Wikipedia account, so that malicious edits would be ignored. This assumes the threat model doesn't include rogue Wikipedia admins rewriting history or hijacking accounts.

At the expense of a smaller anonymity set, it might make more sense for the app to query Wikidata instead of Wikipedia: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q16766305
As another example, many cryptocurrency miners undervolt their cards to get better performance per unit of energy.
What happened in 2003 and where can I learn more about the translator situation?

It doesn't seem to be limited to religious programming. For example, KUSC, a non-profit classical station, has 4 translators. I don't understand why. NPR affiliate KCRW has 5 translators.
This is such a strange article. To a lot of the world, physical labor is just what you do every day. There's a reason you call it a "farmer’s carry".

> The point of free speech protections are to protect the stuff you don't like

no, its to protect speech you don't like, not "stuff", or it could be abstracted to any number of maxims.

a private business cannot censor its own expressions, only those of others. The issue of censorship only cones up wrt publishing platforms discrimination on who they serve.

I've used this in the past with my son to teach him simple stuff. Would be nice if it somehow had integrated docs though, at which point it would be roughly up to speed with QuickBasic in the 80s.

You're missing IP acquisition which is the third well considered type of acquisition consideration. Not saying you're wrong here just wanted to add that.

I’ve only run mbsync unidirectionally as a backup utility (in addition to tarsnap on my Mailserver). I wonder if the bidirectional features just aren’t used that much?

Also, Gmail’s tags don’t map nicely onto folders.
To me the interesting play would be to acquire Nintendo, move the Xbox division into the Nintendo division, and then spin that off into a new independent gaming company. Might be good for shareholder value in the end and put Microsoft in a better position to focus on their core enterprise cloud business while receiving fair value for its Xbox assets.
Listen, people are like...craaazy busy...
Trump was democratically elected (by commoners). Twitter was built with wealthy private investor money. The fact that Twitter banned many of the commoners who elected Trump, but couldn't ban Trump himself until now due to the fear of public backlash is a testament to how anti-democratic it is to have private control over the national means of communication.
For someone like Trump with a bruised ego, being welcomed by everyone like a religious figure can be very appealing I think.
This is a false assumption, the vast majority of Americans across the political spectrum have condemned the BLM riots and looting and largely find it unacceptable. Curious how you came to the conclusion that "everyone is okay" with it.
Hm, usually when I really need a stamp I just print it at the post office as I never know beforehand how much will the thing cost. It does make letters a bit dull (though I only send those to corps so it's not like there is somebody there to be delighted)

And I disagree with that. You've got to be able to run your own OS on your own system, don't you? If you disagree with some choices made in the "official" kernel, you should be able to make your own changes. If you work on kernel development, you should be able to test your changes.

If root can't control these things, then who can? Besides, even if root can't change the kernel, the system will still be compromised if an intruder gets root access.
> What am I missing?

You're missing that 'nothing arrived' is clear cut, while 'it's not quite what I was expecting' is extremely subjective. I know the products are clearly not what was advertised, but even answering the question 'did your package arrive' with 'yes' probably makes the dispute go from an immediate refund to a long protracted process. Someone has to look at the photo, they may not know about the product domain and not be able to tell... etc.

I listen to everything Naval records and I find him quite insightful but then again he is no golden god, he is just a person like us who won't be right 100% of the time.

It is amazing to me that people have fallen for the propaganda that Tesla is a battery company. They buy their batteries from the same companies as everyone else.

Tesla doesn't make its own batteries. That is the fact. Anything else is bluster.

There is an extremely bright line.

Can the software automatically make lane changes? Can it initiate turns? Can it decide to make non-emergency stops at lights and signs? Can it accelerate from a stop? What is the expected level of human intervention?
You are introducing a ridiculous binary. There are innumerable ways to test this software, even on public roads, without unleashing it on the thousands of Tesla owners.

It's not like Tesla has to release new features every year, they just feel they need to to continue to pump up and justify their stock price.

EDIT:

I misread the parent comment, I’m not opposed to just banning self driving cars as self driving cars likely won't make everyday folks' life better.
It's not money-losing if you take the program's effect on stock prices into account, and maybe you'll even accept that it's always been a stock manipulation tool.
It has to do with how correlated conditions are in your 100 places. Conditions on one square inch of your floor are very highly correlated with conditions on another square inch of your floor, so they wouldn't be able to experience a 1-in-100 event independently -- if one part of your floor did something unusual, the other parts probably would too. Conditions on the floor the next room over are also pretty highly correlated, but not quite as high (maybe a fissure could open up and swallow the kitchen, but not your office). So in order for the parent comment to be true, their thousand distinct geographic places would need to be statistically independent from each other.

Of course in practice, it's quite hard to know whether conditions in one location are independent from another, or whether there's some degree of correlation or an underlying causal factor. This is why we have climate scientists.
> The current year is 2020

False, the current year according to the Grogorian calendar is 2022.

Disappointing an article as pedantic as this one fails itself. (Yes, I am aware it was likely written in 2020. That is the point: it assumed the reader read it in 2020.)
I think what User23 meant was that our cultural constructs of race are usually based on some key phenotypical differences. A North African person is more closely related to Europeans on average than to a South African person yet they're usually classed as the same "race".

But you're right that User23 is still incorrect as that's not proof that melanin-rich skin evolved multiple times independently

I agree, and it’s not an accident, it’s about creating plausible deniability so that his base can say “he said X” when really he said Y.

“Stand down and stand by” is a prime example of this.
The emptiness I associate with a robot leading a prayer while still imagining it eventually being a truly spiritual experience for more and more people is strange.

A materialistic interpretation may be that spirituality is nothing but a personal physical experience.

However, a non-materialistic interpretation could be that the robot is considered to be an extension of another person that created it.

But then again, I can perceive the robot as being created by an advanced AI, where the AI learned about spirituality and created the robot in a creative act of manufacturing not influenced by any former teacher, in a manner such as monkeys eventually randomly typing the entire work of Hamlet[1].

However, the random act of unspiritual creation of a robot spiritual leader by AI doesn't prove that the robot entity is unspiritual. The spirituality of the robot could, in theory, have been created ex nihilo or from some pre-existing form that was or was not part of the material world.

So there seem to be three logical options:

1. The robot may not be spiritual, only material.

2. The robot may be spiritual, but only in its material form.

3. The robot, whether it exists or not in the material world, could be linked to a pre-existing or post-existing spiritual form, neither defining the robot itself as having a spirit or not having a spirit, but also not negating that it could.

The third, I think, may be closest to the Buddhist interpretation, and leaves most options open metaphysically.

In that, we arrive where we started. We know more than when we started, such that we're enlightened, but at the same time we may know no more for certain than when we considered the robot.

While WA is near ubiquitous in Germany, from my own experience many non-technical people in the UK prefer Telegram to WA. WA is the only way I can reach some of my contacts in Germany, but with my UK contacts I can avoid it altogether.
I see what you’re doing - you point out someone else’s flaws but avoid the matter at hand and under discussion.

Shame on you; you should be ashamed of yourself.
> I was floored when I realized the Peloton has no games and it's closed to third-party developers. It seems to just have group classes which couldn't be less interesting to me.

I don't understand what you thought the product was? It's an exercise bike. You do exercise classes on it. It's not a games machine. What were they thinking? They were thinking it's an exercise bike.
Who cares if it's "technically illegal" if there's no fines for it. I seriously doubt that the EU will grow teeth anytime soon (but I hope to be surprised!).
> why people who have access to extremely affordable streaming services but who choose to torrent anyway do so.

I think the only real answer here is unavailability of content in a sufficiently convenient/appealing form. But you've already written off unavailability of content as a reason you want to deal with, so I don't think there are any remaining answers for you.
Here's a video of the author's presentation at Scale Conf on migrating Wikipedia to HHVM: http://www.dev-metal.com/migrating-wikipedia-hhvm-scale-conf...
Yeah, that's what I was getting at. Thanks for the more succinct statement.
LSD isn't heroin but it's certainly not "harmless".
There is a truly ludicrous amount of unused/underused land left in the US. The only problem is where we are burying people, not that we are burying people in the general case. Cemeteries in cities/suburbs get in the way, but otherwise it isn't a real concern.

Seriously, drive across Wyoming sometime and then try to say with a straight face that we are running out of land.
Why the hell would someone downvote gress' comment? The article misrepresented the reason for Marco's regret, to use as evidence for its thesis. Marco regretted what he said because it was being used out-of-context to support a flood of stories in the press that he thought were BS not to mention the gazillion emails he was getting about it.

Now, I suppose someone could be reading this and thinking, "sure, that's what Marco wants everyone to believe, but really he's just scared of the Apple mafia." If you, a reader who downvoted gress, are thinking this as well, step back and really think about that statement for a second, and think about things like projection and assumptions and confirmation bias.

I guess I'm sticking up for Apple here, but really I'm sticking up for intellectual honesty. I love it when people criticize the utter living hell out of Apple, but for actual legitimate things. Opinions based on conspiracy theories, tribalism, or just plain making stuff up discredits real, authentic criticism that actually means something and that might actually result in positive change. This goes for any topic really, not just Apple stuff.

I'm not characterizing this particular article in that way- it seemed thoughtful and well-written, aside from misrepresenting Marco and possibly others. I'm giving the author the benefit of the doubt here that this was just a misunderstanding. It's more a response to people who have assumptions that are so entrenched that they would disbelieve Marco's own stated reasons for regretting what he wrote, because not believing him and assuming something more sinister better reinforces whatever much more dramatic narrative they've already imagined.
Cool feedback, I've raised two issues from it.

So ThatHigh.com is making say $1K a month roughly from advertising. Want to share some more numbers? How many pageviews is that requiring? Click through rate, etc.

Anyone else on HN have a pure advertising supported website and want to share their monthly adrevenue/page views/click through rate numbers? (I'm launching my "November" Sprint App soon and it's just for laughs and will be ad supported so wondering if there is any chance it'll cover my beer tab...)
> I doubt most medium to large companies I see implementing Kubernetes could be considered a good fit for Kubernetes. If you want to run on-prem / colo you are probably better of with something simpler like Nomad.

Our path has been Ansible -> Ansible+Docker -> Docker Swarm -> k8s. We absolutely don't need k8s, but the other options all had downsides.

1. Nomad was on our list and probably would've been better, but there were no managed Nomad solutions at the time and it was not as widely used as other solutions

2. Our time on Swarm was /ok/, but it was more and more obvious that being on the lesser walked path was a problem, and it's future made us run away from it

3. k8s gave us a nice declarative deployment mechanism

4. We can switch to a managed solution down the road with less friction
