Tesla's Head of Investigations told the police they were able to verify that he was armed, but he wasn't armed so looks like someone somewhere is not telling the truth
Depends on the state in the US. Almost every state has relatively strict requirements regarding which models of scales may be used for trade (pricing), and some impose taxes and other fees to keep them in operation. Most scales on grocer floors that are accessible to customers (if you can even find them these days) are clearly marked as "not legal for trade" or have a similar disclaimer -- precisely because it would be too expensive to keep carefully calibrated trade-legal scales exposed to the general public.
It is precisely the linear ordering in memory. Whether X-then-Y or Y-then-X is best depends upon if the data is stored row- or column-major.
If I am going to maintain the script myself and never tweak anything in the middle of the night, sure.

But most people don't know awk. And awk requires more awareness. I break my awk when I fix things when tired.

I like to compare Kubernetes to websphere.
I think it's an American English dialect thing. I'm from Ireland, a dialect close to British English, and always found it odd when they say it on US TV
Oh, they do: https://www.apple.com/environment/our-approach/
As the current owner of a 2017 F150 long bed 4x4 with an ARE bed cap, I'm super-tempted by the Tesla. It's a total no-brainer for the people buying things like the Honda Ridgeline. It's less so for people who treat their truck like a work vehicle.

Frankly, I don't think will cannibalize the existing P/U market as much as it will sway more people away from SUVs into [Cyber]trucks, especially if the back seat is as spacious as a normal full size truck's.

Yep! 2019!
I've seen that meme floating around on Twitter, but I don't get it.

The "Homer" was a car with a million little crazy details added onto it. It was bubbly and green.

This thing has all the details removed from it (it doesn't even have side mirrors!), and it's flat and black and gray.

There's zero resemblance? Is the joke just that "it's different from other cars"?
Genuinely curious, what is "the Chinese way"?
Physical key keys go into designated keyholes, and give you physical access to something. Physical cards go into dedicated machines, and give you access to a physical transaction, cash, deposit box, etc. Physical objects for physical access.

Physical U2F keys get in the way of all-digital flows. They also need to interact with all kinds of non-dedicated devices, something they do a less than stellar job of. Bluetooth and NFC keys are young, setup process isn’t great and reliability seems to vary; USB keys require a USB port which might be occupied by other things or available only in another physically incompatible shape.

I wrote this up twenty-two days ago.
Ticket details:
"the new text input is whack."
Support Request #2490163

And I pushed back later after the first round of "yeah, it's the new normal, don't you like it," I wrote back with, "Yeah, no. This is a train wreck." And went on from there.

Heading now to post the URL to this discussion as a supplement to my ticket <hahaonlyserious>.
What's worse is the cognitive dissonance in people who in one discussion will lament how some particular law is fucked (usually it is a law pertinent to their lifestyle that they take issue with, e.g. gun control is too restrictive, or marijuana is not legal), and in another discussion will white wash that idea and say what amounts to "you do the crime you do the time" as so many posts here sadly boil down to.

So we have in these discussions - everyone individually recognizes that the legal system is fucked, the laws are fucked, the way we make laws is fucked, the judges are corrupt, the prosecutors care only about case volume, the defense attorneys are underpaid and overworked, the jury is stupid and uninformed, the press sensationalizes everything, ... and drilling into any one of these topics will reveal miscarriages of justice and tragedies of procedure, but tl;dr "bradley manning was found guilty".

We've got a $25/week minimum and even offer a free trial. You're right, a few years ago it did require thousands to get started, but like anything else, retargeting is being democratized and productized.
These things take time. Tesla's goal for their next car, the Model C, is to reduce the price significantly. Now, considering how much their current cars cost, that might still mean $40k or more, but that would still be a significant improvement.
Be your best self. Talk to people like you already know them (in a good way). The DJ advice mentioned here is great too. Talk with feeling. People want to hear your energy as much as your words. Talk in short sentences, they help line up the next sentence. Don't worry about memorizing your presentation line for line, but more about the major points you want to make, you can trust yourself to make those points in your good style already. If you feel like you stumble or whatever, don't worry about it, you can just pause and go into another sentence or topic.
You are right, having lived the first 16 years of my life in USSR, I probably know nothing about totalitarian regimes.

The elephant in the room is, what "normal" and "double" even mean? It could be negotiating content based on something actually meaningful, like viewport size, DPI, even connection speed. This spec is broken as soon as we have to worry about something other than retina displays.

You can see they are basically getting this very vendor-specific hack they already had and calling it a standard. That's heresy.

Well it's coming to VS2015, just not for desktop apps. I assume that having the integration for any one platform greatly lowers the barrier for other platforms, though.

> In Visual Studio 2015, that cross-platform reach is going to include C++, too. Microsoft's development environment will include support for the Clang compiler and LLVM infrastructure for targeting Android and, in a later iteration, iOS.

Who said anything about new build systems?

All the build systems he was thinking of are not even worth criticizing, including make.

Check out Vesta, created about 25 years ago...

make is a complete mess. Trying to put lipstick on it and dress it in a champagne gown doesn't change the fact you got stuck with the ugly girl for the prom.
You could simply slide one tube into the next and leave the 'gap' between the tubes sit inside the sliding portion. That way you could have ridiculously close clearance to the tube except for that tiny bit (a few cm) every hundred meters or so. Just anchor one end of each tube and let the other slide freely.
I'm in the middle of his 1996 follow up book, "Dark Sun: The Making of the Hydrogen Bomb" (http://www.amazon.com/Dark-Sun-Making-Hydrogen-Bomb/dp/06848...).

The book details the Soviet nuclear program, as well as the truly massive amount of espionage that was going on at the various locations of the Manhattan project.
Possibly half of the world's population would love to live and work in America. Most of the people that now live here have ancestors that followed the rules as my ancestors did. It is profoundly unfair to allow others to "skip the queue" over those who have followed our American laws, have been honest, and "waited their turn."

This article even mentions those that have broken American laws getting subsidized college education costs such as in-state tuition and other monies. In other words, you have people who are not American citizens getting in-state tuition rates that are not available to American citizens who grew up in other states.

H1B visas displace American workers who are looking for a job as well as lower wage rates. One NYTimes pick commenter suggests that he wanted an H1B visa to because he couldn't find anyone to work a Chicago job where someone knew both SAS and SQL. People want to use Open Source software such as R and Python instead of using SAS. In the NYC area there are many Meetups for stats, big data, machine learning, and so on and almost all of them are in R and Python and none to my knowledge in SAS. See https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7328677

The problem for many firms is that they want software people to work on buggies (SAS) when they want to work on cars (open source). Many of these firms also want software people to come to undesirable locations instead of the ones where people want to live. For example, Google owns one of the largest office building in NYC, taking an entire city block. So, if firms use modern open source software and they locate in areas where people want to live then they will get the employees they need without having to resort to H1B visas.
I started watching news from overseas as they seem to be more objective and professional.

Both sides have "news" outlets which are agenda based and profit motivated. And truth doesn't usually sell as well. That's a problem. You can't even trust the fact checker sources as they say "out of context" or "partially true" when it's a fact against their agenda/team. Even the fact checking sites are super biased.

If you align with a side, you attach your identity to it like Paul Graham wrote about with Keep Your Identity Small [1]. People don't like their identity criticized, or want to believe they may be wrong, so they believe what they want and create their own distorted bubble.

My buddy always said "we're told to not talk about religion or politics. Probably the 2 most powerful and influential topics that exist". Now people have started talking about them, but not in a productive fashion.

If you believe someone on the other side is bad based on their views, you can't have a dialogue. This is the greatest tragedy. Disowning family members and friends over their views because you concluded they must be bad people?

Very few people on either side are actually bad. They just have a different experience, they've aligned their identity and team, and there's a ton of forces at play (ex: media, special interests, etc) to keep that divisiveness going.

Same. I learned through experience to ask for a candidate to write a couple of lines of code.

Usually it's just some simple question that requires a single loop. We explicitly tell them they can use any language including one they want to make up as long as they are ok explaining how it works. When possible, I try to relate it to the conversation we've had up to that point.

I've had someone start off by writing "four" on the board when prompted to write a "for" loop and get stuck. I'm still not sure if he was truly inexperienced or just trolling. The resume looked solid to me and he spoke well about his experience. I had almost decided to just skip the coding question as a result.
Thanks for building this!

Some comments:

Scroll doesn’t work on ipad when touching inside the white area.

Would be nice to post links to the data sources as worldometer does. There is a lot of disinformation happening so some people might want to verify the numbers.
TikTok is actually a great example of this, and it already exists! “But I don’t like TikTok, therefore it’s not a Facebook replacement!” you may be tempted to retort with, but the parent comment said it exactly— it’s something completely different.
Exactly. But for the savy it's easier to see from network tab in dev tools where your data is sent.

No such luck with native apps. I don't almost never use wireshark to figure out what my native apps are doing.

Also. The entire argument falls apart when you factor in the ability to proxy data.
E.g google.com -> bit-shady-site.com -> for-sure-shady-site.com
It is the result of the free market of news. Bad news drives out good, just as bad money drives out good.

(Bad as in quality, not as in pessimistic. Bad meaning emotional and inciteful rather than informative and constructive. Humans have proven they respond more to the former.)
I think people listening to talk radio on long commutes was a major early driving factor.

Sounds like my Oculus paperweight...
I watched the 40 second clip of a man chase another man with a microphone. Then a person who works at a homeless shelter says people used the homeless shelter as an address to vote. He alleges some of the people who registered their address to the homeless shelter are dead. At no point does Adam Seeley allege that those dead people voted or were counted in the final vote.

Have you watched the Georgia voting systems manager, Gabriel Sterling, debunk the fraudulent claims of voter fraud?
Well I mean, there's the Surface Duo, right?

Easy solution, don't leave random webgames running when you're done with them, and if it doesn't noticeably impact performance...?
That is a really interesting observation. I couldn't find such an article. I would love to read it.
Why? I haven’t seen a silver bullet yet, but I always learn something new
Do white people with ancestors that were slaves get considered reparations?
Maybe something is cliché because it is based on some truth. Maybe.
It would be interesting to know how many people have been "converted" by which debunking. I remember the case and everyone I knew, everyone, looked at it as an example of tort litigation gone awry. I didn't hear the opposite opinion in liberal NY. Then I believe I read an article somewhere along the way and it changed my perspective. Nevertheless, I still hear the "can you believe someone spilled coffee on themselves and made millions of dollars, and that's why we can't have nice things" bit all the time, so there are a lot more people who may eventually discover it.
Wild. I was a kid in 1985, so not interested in wine yet, though Austria is right next door.

There were several recent affairs in Europe with adulteration of suspect booze in the black (or gray) market with methylalcohol. That would fit right in.
The cynicism for battery teach research is misplaced. In our lifetimes we have seen real enormous strides in battery technology actually go into production. LFP batteries are now in actual Teslas, provider a cheaper/safer/simpler option for lower range cars that depend on fewer exotic materials/mining. Sodium batteries are in the pipeline. Sulfur batteries may or may not make it too.
I had plenty of coins in 2010 that I'd mined, the problem was that they were just a toy at the time and so when I lost the keys that same year, I didn't give a shit. Now of course I have regrets :)
But there's an even better alternative to that: pedestrian controlled lights.

There is a main road in France I often take, in the south Paris (RN 20), that goes through a small town. There are traffic lights that are only there for the pedestrians. When there's no one there, they'll be green for cars. When there are pedestrians waiting, they can push a button that'll switch the lights.

Instead of the repurposed stop sign, this has the advantage that cars can flow through without stopping at all when there are no pedestrians, which is basically always. I've only ever stopped there a handful of times.
There is definitely scientific evidence that continued CO2 emissions will eventually stop the atlantic currents and plunge Europe into an ice age.

The thing you linked seems completely irrelevant to this discussion.
Don’t get me wrong, I really like rust, but you can’t deny that in Java or python you can just put/share this class/object here that changes the lifecycle of a bunch of other components and it will Just WorkTM thanks to the GC. While in Rust such a refactor will be safe in the end, but you will have to manually look into a bunch of uses of said struct(s) and recursively refactor the whole thing while fighting (or being helped) by the compiler.

This is the (in my opinion) insurmountable difference between low and high-level languages. Even though rust is (arguably) probably the best/most readable low-level language that as you note can sometime even beat managed languages (locking/file close), it will loose to major refactor-speed.
And also zero tolerance for mental health care. (Thanks, Governor Regan, for killing off what used to be a functional system!)
It's not a ripoff. The additional markup pays for all the other things that iFixit does for you, but for which you are not directly paying. Like those guides, and curating the tools that look exactly like the other tools but actually are much lower quality. And so on.

The fact that you can buy from the same suppliers and avoid that markup also means that you're now responsible for waiting the extra time to ship from China instead of iFixit, and you're responsible for making sure you really are getting the quality tools instead of the lookalike ripoff tools, etc....

If you value your time so little that doing this process makes you think that iFixit is a ripoff, well that tells me that you're looking at the wrong end of the telescope.
What was the 364% grows caused by?

Is this due to selection (like a modern corn we have) or antibiotics being fed to the livestock? (of course, the answer is both but maybe I am missing something).

And a question to a no-tasty-chicken-in-markets adepts, have you (or your farmer/supplier) ever tried to take a modern-genetics chicken and feed them with no antibiotics or other grow-stimulators - what is the taste?
None of what you are saying actually contradicts the sentence. More men would be over-rewarded, because more men work from the office. This is bad for the employer, but it is also bad for the under-rewarded employees (they would be missing out on the normal rewards which should go to them).
> Security by obscurity replied to hacking

Considering that Wikipedia dates the concept and its rejection back to 1851, you have understood it wrong.
What if you add PGO to the mix, how fast it is going to be?
Agreed. I use vi and nano (light scripting) and nothing else. There are so many cool things that vi can do, but most here know this. I don't want my hand held when I'm writing lines of code. I cut my teeth under an old grey beard sysadmin/programmer over 2 decades ago, so I appreciate learning the hard way. This method is not for everyone, and I can appreciate some people liking Git being built in or autocomplete, etc., but it's not for me. I do like syntax highlighting and line numbers, but not much else. I like being a little slower, more deliberate, and debugging my own code. Honestly, even when I'm coding, I'm rarely writing more than 20-30 lines of code a day anyway. There are so many other things I need to focus on like documentation, etc., that having an editor that holds my hand actually slows me down.

I was just googling around, looking for any follow up on what happened with truecrypt.

Thought this was interesting. The PDF doesn't go into much. Tl;dr is: nothing too severe was wrong with truecrypt.

I hope I can steer the conversation in the direction of how ridiculous I think it is that we live in a country where the government most likely stronghanded an open source project into shutting down with a National Security Letter because they did cryptography, and they did it well.

It's profoundly scary to me.
I am not sure I follow the issue about hangouts.

I use it constantly with people outside of my circles. Just open http://hangouts.google.com/start, and share the redirected link. Or just enter their email in the form that automatically opens. You can bookmark the /start url to instantly create new hangouts.
What are these issues? I use Ace daily (in Advanced Explorer) and have no issue. It has a syntax checker for JavaScript that is invaluable.
Sort of like an open-source stock-exchange? Though I love the idea, I'm positive that you'll hit against all sorts of legal/political walls before it gets off the ground.

I've always believed that tech can be a great equalizer, and this would be a step in the right direction.
The problem with your argument is that some those same people have contributed articles to Wired driving certain unproven assumptions in the Manning case..

Its extremely troubling to say the least from a trust aspect..
Started the year with rudimentary iPhone development experience, sacrificed free time, time with friends (s/going out/HN contributing), my love of Salsa dancing, potential girlfriend(s), got lucky - met the right people, found the right projects, now doing considerable contract iOS work, all without leaving my day job - I no longer fear layoffs. I want to write a find-the-1-beat iPhone app for Salsa dancers :)

I learned that my strength is into diving into something with accountability and public commitment as my flotation devices.

In 2011, I hope to build one or two quality iPhone apps in niches dear to me. And to talk to more women. And to practice Stoicism. And to socialize again. Life is too short for just Xcode.

For aspiring iOS developers, it takes about 100-150 hours of concerted focus - after that Objective-C/Cocoa starts becoming the solution, not the problem.
Not much. When someone does something, and that same person has a goal that you disapprove of, you have to think about two things: the influence of that deed on that naughty goal, and and the influence of that deed on your goals.

Note that those two things can be conflated in one: if you disapprove some goal, then a part of your goal is to make that not happen. So in the end, the only thing that matters is the influence of the deed on your goals, period.

Now the deed cannot be evaluated alone. You need to know how it interacts with the world. And the first place to look at is the other deeds of the same person. (There lies the validity of Ad Hominem arguments.) However it's not the only place to look at.

For instance, if a Paper-Clip-Maniac wants to solve the Friendly AI problem, you probably don't want that problem solved: it could fill the universe with paper clips, wiping out all sentient life in the process. Now, say you're a transhumanist, and you want to cure Death. Solving the FAI problem suddenly look much better. It may even be worth the risk induced by that Paper-Clip-Maniac.

If your project is template intensive you're going to have long compilation time.

Our work around is parallel compilation.
It's reasonable to assume that if Hitler wanted you to die, he wouldn't poison you with a sandwitch and risk being called a woman behind his back.

Anyway, motivations do not matter one bit when it comes to evaluating whom to trust with your data, if it's not safe by design then it's not safe period.
You're playing the video game, so it is your skill.
That's a good first step, but the next step is to ask why people didn't follow the rules. What sort of pressure were they under and what were their incentives? That's when you start asking questions about corporate culture.
