> I don't think Xi enjoys as much support as the article claimed

Thanks for the input. It would help us to know what it's based on. Do you live in China? Are you Chinese?
less +F is not such a good alternative to "tail -f" or better "tail -F" especially when you are filtering the output of tail using grep or awk.
I've been playing with this for a while and, while I don't have any games released, I continue to be in love with this genre. I'm one of those people that has a real mental picture of what I read (frequently better than what movies portray).

There's a huge community of IF fans and producers which really runs more out of love than profit. There's also an archive where you can download a lot of games (or even play them on-line). Check out http://www.ifarchive.org/.
Amazing people still believe that, despite the evidence staring them in the face.

"Are women paid less than men because they choose to be, by gravitating to lower-paying jobs like teaching and social work? [...] But a majority of the pay gap between men and women actually comes from differences within occupations, not between them — and widens in the highest-paying ones like business, law and medicine according to data from Claudia Goldin, a Harvard University labor economist and a leading scholar on women and the economy."
"A Minority, a culturally, ethnically, or racially distinct group that coexists with but is subordinate to a more dominant group. As the term is used in the social sciences, this subordinancy is the chief defining characteristic of a minority group."

So, facing discrimination, which I would think is part of being subordinate, does make you a minority.
You've got a strong argument to say "the reporter should do a little bit more work to put these numbers in context" but the reporter has an equally strong argument for "This is a news wire, not a journal. I just report today's news as succinctly as possible, it's the readers responsibility to read further and put this stuff in context if that's really important". As a side note though, I like the Economist because they tend to do what you're talking about - put things in context.
> Do you start with the presupposition that juries are infallible?

No; I answered that immediately in my first reply.

> Surely their actions must leak information about their constitution?

That's not actually a question, but even if the answer is yes, that's what I mean about juries being only the least-bad solution we've invented so far.

> If a jury cannot follow (what is assumed to be) basic rules, then how can one be assured that they capably analyzed the facts and case issued to them and then appropriately applied matters of the law (written rules) to them?

One can't. See previous answer.
Cheapest way to live in Berkeley, CA is on a boat.

$7.74 per foot at the marina, and you get access to bathroom and showers. If you're willing to do some DIY, you can get a boat for a few grand. Plus, you get to sail around the bay!

Obviously not everyone is cut out for that, but it's worked for a Ph.D. I know.

Disclaimer: I have nothing to do with this project.

It looks interesting though.
> but... the fact that the formulation caused adjuvant-like effects was seen as a feature, not a bug.

> Added care to minimize immune response has been used in the development of mRNA drug platforms

I don't get it. Either they want the immune response or not. Do you have a link to source your claim, they favored "adjuvant-like effects"?
There are tons of optimizations that logic can't be applied to!

For starters, any software developed in any company with the ability to deliver updates in a timely manner.
Patent held back the development of 3D printers, and accessibility of 3D printing in general for everyone. I now see weird and clumsy workaround to avoid patent lawsuits for things like conveyor belts as well lack of certain commercial goods such as heated chamber.

Just because someone is an innovator doesn't mean they are for continual innovations or for the spread of innovations or like the idea of people building on their works.
What country is your friend's employer based in? I'm America living in Romania soon to apply for developer jobs and I see time zone and residency status as potential obstacles.
A number of the users from Parler joined the social network I built. Although I don't lean conservative in my own views (center), I believe that silencing those you feel are mis-informed or wrong only makes -- and has made -- the problem worse. An open ~discord~ discourse(oops, edit) is needed. People don't get that on Parler either. They should have a place they feel comfortable speaking about their (non-violent) views. And others should have the tools to voice their opposition openly -- and anonymously -- as well. Social networks have polarized people nearly beyond repair. I don't have to agree with you to believe you still have the right to voice your opinion. You have the right to be wrong. You have the right to an opportunity for growth.

Funny note, Parler did a copy-pasta of our motto in their re-launch.
Auto usually just means scan channels at boot time and pick one that seems good (presumably the least amount of traffic).

And on at least one SoC I worked with (Realtek) I swear the algorithm was "return 6".
A chess-playing computer had been suggested as early as 1864, and the first machine able to carry out a "program" was invented in Spain in 1914 by the engineer Leonardo Torres-Quevedo and called Ajedrecista http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/El_Ajedrecista

"You don't hear about doctors being given a mystery patient and forty-five minutes to save their life using only a whiteboard"

That's actually a pretty accurate description of what doctors have to do, at least in the UK. For the first nine years after finishing medical school, doctors have to take a series of exams, including written exams and practical tests, which are primarily diagnosing and proposing treatments for real ("mystery") patients. This is a centralised process, rather than ad-hoc tests at every interview, but doctors do have to continue demonstrating their competence during their careers.
Ha. Soviet magazines were more considering. They listed memory requirements well in advance, when I was learning racing games for my programmable calculator in late 1980s.
Definitely.

Doesn't help that a lot of prominent figures are also drop outs (Zuckerberg, Gates, Wozniak, Jobs, Musk, the list goes on).

Doctors insist on having everyone call them "Dr" and each-others too. They get their prestige from their tittles.

Meanwhile Bill Gates is just... Bill Gates. No prefix needed!
IMO, the parent comment was not hairsplitting, it was making quite valid critiques. Take the marketing critique. Far FAR too many techies think "marketing" == "advertising". It's not. Paid advertising is a small part of the art that is marketing. I considered the comment to quite helpful.
They have apparently hired a ton of great k8 folks who have been tasked with building an internal layer of sorts for themselves so I guess they are moving off it (though not anytime soon).
Ssshh - don't spoil their faux outrage with logic and common sense :)
I used to be blase about the idea of talking to the police, but have had some experiences which make me more wary.
That said, as a foreigner, especially things like traffic encounters, it usually pays to exaggerate your foreign-ness - they usually can't be bothered with extra paper work.
I’m so confused. I intentionally refused to give my phone number to facebook and it is not set in my profile, yet my number was pwned in this facebook breach. Is FB associating or storing my number without permission? I have a different number set for 2-factor and amazingly it was not pwned!
Fair enough, that's a principle you can have for yourself and depending on your role and responsibilities that may suit you. But at least be aware that others may have a different principle and set of responsibilities. I have a professional responsibility to take all measures I can to deliver the most reliable software to my customers and if that means debugging third party libraries, so be it. Heck if that means debugging the toolchain, the operating system, whatever the case, then it's my job to do it.

I don't have the luxury of having the software I deliver to end users fail and then saying "Oh well, it's because there's a bug in a third party library and as a matter of principle I don't bother debugging it, reporting it, or taking basic measures to deal with it so you poor customers will just have to deal with it."
100% agree, people like this guy are despicable.
Most of the places where C++ doesn't have good libraries I wouldn't want to use Rust anyway, that is the domain of managed languages, GUIs, distributed computing, Web development.

And for the stuff I use C++ for, COM/UWP, Android NDK, GPGPU shaders, Unreal/Unity, Rust tooling is yet WIP or requires to leave the confort of the existing C++ frameworks and IDE integrations.
The chat app is already end to end encrypted, might as well make it implement GPG and send/receive email to truly complete the Signal project.
Interestingly, if you say that Signal's funding is sketchy and it raised some eyebrows, that would be FUD (see sibling comment). But saying the same about Telegram encryption is for some reason perfectly fine and definitely not FUD.

Shouldn't we have the same standard for all claims?
The news would be better without headlines; just topic headers.
Most things on my wish list remain there un-purchased ... forever.

But they'd rather advertise random products to me?

Why not instead just advertise related products to what is on my wish list?
C++ used to be the industry leading language in many more fields, but it lost ground to other languages. Not a bad thing--"know thyself" and all that. But Rust seems like a credible threat to C++'s remaining niches (bury your head in the sand if you want), and C++ will need to evolve if it is to not lose further market-/mindshare. And it is evolving, as this article points out, but a huge glaring pain point in C++ development remains the build and package management tooling. The aforementioned build systems that large organizations operate aren't nearly as nice as, say, Cargo and I think a lot of greenfield projects who have to choose between cobbling together their own build tool to work with C++ and using Rust + Cargo off the shelf will choose the latter (other factors notwithstanding).
According to the first Google results for the two questions, 16% of Mississippi adults are functionally illiterate, and 60% of Mississippi adults voted in the 2020 elections. While it is possible that the 16% illiterate and the 40% non-voting populations overlap perfectly, I highly doubt it.

Hello HN,

I am proud to present my latest project, controlmylights.net, an interactive lighting installation that you can control via a website, Twitch chat or YouTube Chat. This is also a fundraiser for Feeding America (I’m using Tiltify, so your money goes straight to Feeding America, I never touch it). I graduated college in May and found that there were some skills I didn’t have, so I used this project to learn them. I made the website front-end using ReactJS and made the mockup for it using Figma. I am building the site to a static file to decrease loading time, and server load. I learned all about NodeJS’s async properties and NodeJS’s promises, in addition to what blocking/non-blocking Arduino operations were. I relearned OpenFrameworks to make the animations when you choose a color. Also, I implemented a messaging middleware architecture to my project that originally used a custom Express.js+SocketIO solution, then moved everything to Redis Pub/Sub and a Redis queue. In addition to all of that I learned some of what it takes to build a “real-time” application. It’s hard! The slowest part of my application is the delay on Twitch/YouTube, when you send a command to the system it executes immediately.

If you want to know all about the build process you can read it here (it’s long):

My visitors were usually smart and probably figured out on their own (since many of them had blogs - and AdSense accounts - themselves) that clicking on banners meant supporting the site.

Too bad Google shoots first and never asks any question.

It's really comfortable to live in a space without meaningful competition.
One important thing the author seems to miss at some level is the context of the data being modeled.

If all you have is data on whether black or white won, then, assuming the 50-50 outcome probabilities, this is a fine model. There is nothing to be gained by anything else.

Where I disagree with the author I guess is to suggest that some other statistically inferior model would be better because, if you had a richer set of observations, it would be shown to be true. To me that scenario is irrelevant at some level, because it's a different scenario (I don't agree with the author's assertion that first move information would somehow decrease predictive information -- it might not improve it, but I doubt it would decrease it).

If you had information on player identities even, you might be able to model ability or something like that, and use that to improve your predictions. But then that relies on the bit of information about which players are which, beyond black and white.

The philosopher Quine argued that models cannot be decontextualized from the observations they are explaining, and I think that is particularly relevant in this case. At some level it doesn't matter whether the Aliens' models are true or not, because they have no information in the scenario that they could use to do anything with.

The 50-50 model (per the author) isn't incorrect, it's just a (assumedly) correct model for the game of chess when all you know is which color won the game. If you were playing chess, and your pairings were random and you couldn't see the board or what pieces were available or where they could go, etc the game would seem very similar to what the aliens were observing. A more "truthful" model is only relevant or useful in the context where there is more data to make it useful.
I used to do on call where each time I got called out was a three hour charge. It's great when you're young and single but not any more. I would never do on-call for 'free'. My time is more valuable and I work to live.

Yes, I think so. "Smart" code is smart for 5 min, after that it becomes a liability

...the role of the defense attorney for a guilty client is to wrap a plausible story around this lie...

No, the role of a defense attorney for a guilty client to demand that the state actually prove the client's guilt.

Lying to the court is the dumbest strategy. Any competent defense attorney will not organize their case around a lie but rather around making the state actually prove their case beyond a reasonable doubt. It is important that guilty people be proven guilty, not simply be "likely guilty".

Also, cops caught lying face little-to-no-repercussions.

(This is paraphrasing an attorney friend of mine).
> Microsoft is huge on backwards-compatibility.

Are you sure about that? If I want to run old versions of IE, MS solution is to run a VM, probably because it's cheaper for them. At what point will it become more profitable for them to just tell people to use VMs for 20 year old software? Knowing that only businesses would need those.
Android regexes out the code and adds a button to copy it to the notification bar, along with one to dismiss it.
New at top + box at top => more, usually less relevant (often worse) comments.

Indeed, YouTube comments work this way, even though they've tried to dilute the sewage a bit by highlighting a few highly-rated comments at top.

I'm still a fan of newest-on-top, but this is a cautionary observation. Perhaps there's some way to have the 'box in middle' – or displaying alongside as soon as you've read enough of the log to avoid the most boneheaded, repetitive comments.

Great hacker culture perspective. As a hack, Wikileaks is neatly and intricately constructed, working on multiple mutually-reinforcing levels. When it hits the real world, things get a lot more complex.

You would have to go through security again anyways since you are coming off an international flight (same is true in japan, Russia, Europe).
Intelligence is hard to define. I believe that some people are "exponentially" better for very specialized tasks, for instance, solving logical puzzles, or internalizing rhythm in music, but it isn't necessarily noticeable, and doesn't translate to great accomplishments.
In certain way, cost of doing business has reduced because of cloud service providers. However, network effects and the scale requirements still add up and make it hard for startup's to work on their long term vision. It would be nice if computation was similar to electricity. That way, the onus of paying for the services lies on the end users - the more you use, the more you pay. It is more straightforward and startups can sustain paying themselves for few years without having to worry about paying for computation, storage and network.
Please don't write such baseless assertions; we are trying to keep the post quality high here.

Your other responder works in this field, and I have been on the other side (worked for a company that got this sort of help). We also regularly had the FBI come in and give talks on the sorts of things they were working on in this space.
Massproduction guarantees that there is no variation in quality. Whether the product is of low or high quality depends on other factors.
I can think of one: you can't simulate an atom.

If you read too much into supercomputing and think that they can simulate atoms, then go tell CERN to stop searching for sub-particles and simulate them instead.

Otherwise, I think you know what I mean. Besides, a real system depends on initial conditions. You can't simulate those.
Also this is only about three countries selected a priori, so not a really good sample, even if the number of individuals is huge...
Exactly. I'm actually surprised that an overpriced piece of mineral managed to keep such high value for so long. I would seriously doubt person's intelligence if he/she bought something with diamonds (unless that's for industrial use).

Indeed. If most deaths occur during mid-summer, then people born in autumn live slightly longer on average than people born in spring.
Disclaimer: I worked at Netflix until the end of July 2013 but I have no inside knowledge relating to anything to do with NFL Sunday Ticket.

As many have said here, Netflix has absolutely no experience in live-streaming, which, despite the apparent similarity, is entirely different than streaming cached content. To my knowledge, the idea of doing anything live hasn't been on the company's radar. As recently as early February when we launched House of Cards, the company wasn't even set up to allow for a real-time, coordinated launch of a title on the service.

Unless something like this was being run as a top-secret, skunkworks-style effort (which I seriously doubt) the service architecture isn't at all prepare to handle live-content and there's little reason to believe that Netflix has any interest in dipping its toe into the live sports world.
First of all the feature wasn't available in the initial Big Sur release and it only got available during the Betas for the first minor patch. Second of all, some Apple developer stated on Twitter that (during M1 unveil) he's finally able to show all the boot policy work they worked on the past year(s) to allow users to boot foreign OSes and without opening up holes for attackers.

Basically it boils down to: they could have just used iBoot without changing it at all to keep it as a brick like the iPhone/iPad/Watch, but instead they invested plenty of resources to allow it.

With all that work done to allow it, I'm sure there'll be plenty of people inside of Apple who'd protest if someone changes their mind and decides all this has to go away.

1. git init

2. git remote add %something%

3. go mod init %name_of_your_module% (where in most common case name is your repo address without the https part)

4. https://github.com/golang-standards/project-layout - this repo has the default project structure. Each subfolder has README that describes the purpose of the folder

5. go get -u github.com/gin-gonic/gin to add gin (web lib) for your project. Same for any other package. The will be added to your go.mod and go.sum files

5.1 import "github.com/gin-gonic/gin" in your code to use gin

5.2 package may have more than one major version (tag). If you want to use package at latest tag 2 - you add '/v2' when you 'go get' the package (i.e. go get -u github.com/gin-gonic/gin/v2)

6. git commit && git push to publish

7. Not sure what to you mean by 'fork&clone&submit&pr including 3rd party submodules'. You may use vendoring but in most cases you don't need it as you have your dependencies in your go.mod && go.sum files. You may want to read more about vendoring and gomodproxy though.

8. Testing is pretty easy but I guess you want and article about best practices? I won't post any link as I find the topic as too controversial regardless of the language\stack
