Two resources I always recommend for anyone daunted by Ulysses:

- The RTÉ dramatization[1]. It's essentially unabridged: The entire novel as a well-produced, well-acted radio play. Just amazing.

- Frank Delaney's Re: Joyce podcast[2]. Sadly interrupted halfway through "Wandering Rocks" by Frank's death 4 years ago, it's a delightful unpacking of the novel in paragraph-to-page-sized chunks, depending on the density.

Regardless of any background material you bring along, the best advice for reading Ulysses is just to read it: Plow through the verbiage and don't take too much heed of the references or exactly who's saying what or what in the world they're talking about. Before too long you'll get to some much more straightforward but painstakingly crafted prose, and in the meantime, the flow and rhythm of Joyce's words can be appreciated on their own.

I love what you are basically suggesting is the jerry-rigged version of Frontpage or Dreamweaver.
I applaud Nathan's decision to leave Substack because he disagrees with content hosted there. More so, I applaud Substack for refusing to cave to those who insist on censorship based around their own personal political views. Sounds like a win-win to me.
I wouldn’t call twice as fast neck and neck (others seem to show that the old interpreter is neck and neck) but the primitive JIT is clearly pulling ahead here.
>Let's tax capital gain same as revenue

So if a startup grows from a $1M valuation to $100M valuation they should be taxed on the $99M? That sounds like a great way to kill entrepreneurship and venture capital.
Sure they can. When they find your fingerprints on it, your name on the bill, people willing to testify that they consider the number that the phone is associated with to be yours, etc.

It's not bulletproof like some sort of mathematical proof, but the law operates with much looser standards of proof.
At least one of the reviewers posted separate 5-star reviews for the paid and free version on the same day.

Edit: And on more careful inspection, they do say that they bought the paid version after liking the free version. I may have jumped the gun on that one.
Their continuation-based web server is neat, if you can handle not complaining about the same thing in the Arc/HN combination everyone does when it is brought up.

http://docs.racket-lang.org/web-server/

I also recently discovered a web sockets library, but am not good enough at coding Racket to use either yet. I am definitely planning on it.

(And seeing you're handle, just want to thank you for your contributions to Clojure; I can only image what would happen if you got more involved in the Racket community).
One of the devs was pretty responsive, not intentional: https://twitter.com/kevinsawicki/status/438844155960098816
Seconded on the IngenuiTEA and also their hot water kettle (utiliTEA).

My favorite tea there doesn't get a high rating but I've had a pound of it in the last year and still love it. Green Anji: http://www.adagio.com/green/green_anji.html?SID=531a74998702...

Their masala chai and wuyi ensemble are also both really good.
The problem with neural architecture search is that we don’t know what to optimize on. We need some kind of topological understanding of the data to help build algorithms that can optimize performance. Clearly passing in error rates is not doing the trick
Tesla events always start late. It's a marketing thing.
That is 04:00 UTC, to save others the `TZ=America/Los_Angeles date`.
Apparently you just posted a link to Tron.
Some of this might depend on expectations. Perhaps she was a surprisingly well-drawn character by the standards of FPS NPCs, without breaking the mould completely -- like any comparable character, she was player-focused and very two-dimensional compared with any major character in a decent book.
Particles like protons and electrons can never turn entirely to neutrinos because electric charge is conserved. Protons and bound neutrons seem to be the only stable configuration of quarks & gluons, ultimately there is quark charge that is conserved that prevents quarks from going away unless protons really do decay... which would have to happen at a very low rate if it does.
What sovereign ally? The breakaway regions are not recognized by anyone but Russia as sovereign and even Russia recognised them just before the attack for which it was clearly preparing for months (realistically years). You don't legalise your actions by unilaterally declaring a new widely-not-shared reality.

Crimea is an even worse example since annexation there happened even without a pretext of defending anyone. It was so blatant disregard of laws that they stripped their uniforms of any identifying insignia and lied about their involvement until they annexed it.

Violent part of the president overthrow came mainly from former president's forces shooting on protesting civilians. The protests started why? Because the corrupt president reneged on his promise to start the process of joining EU. For all your worry about US involvement you seem to be pretty uninterested in Russia's. Ukraine had two presidential elections since.

My comment about NATO is that expansion was not akin to putting nukes directly into Russia's neighbourhood because they are exactly where they were pre-expansion. They are certainly farther from Russia than theirs are from us (Kaliningrad). And NATO is a defensive pact which you may not believe, but the fact that it doesn't have a joint army and certainly not a European army that would even remotely suffice for a plausible successful attack on Russia makes it really hard for me to believe anyone in Russia would seriously worry about countries that have mostly been very reluctant to invest in their own armies and until Russia's invasion could hardly agree on anything of substance.

That Germany intends to increase their defence budget proves exactly nothing since this was a direct consequence of Russia's invasion. Not that long ago their soldiers sometimes used brooms on joint exercises for lack of equipment. I'm sure other defence budgets including probably ours will probably change too as our assumptions have so thoroughly been proven wrong by Russia.

I'm not a US citizen and it is completely up to you how you feel about your own country and its government, but I am from a country that willingly joined NATO. I've been critical of most US military interventions in recent history, but I've also not been blind to Russia's meddling in Europe and elsewhere. It is starting to irk me describing this conflict as US or NATO one since neither is in Ukraine. There's just one country with significant forces in another one's so it really shouldn't be difficult to figure out who the aggressor is.

I don't care if your are a merchant of doubt or just being influenced by them. I do find it bemusing that someone bothered by being labelled as pro-Russian spends so much time finding excuses for their invasion.
What's up, you got Ed Chambers.

Well, this already succeeds at the first hurdle a lot of these TTRPG mapping tools fail on - making it extremely easy to add and remove arbitrary segments of wall. With that, a floor layer, and a bigger icon library this would be able to pretty easily replicate a lot of early D&D maps.
Thank you SO MUCH for this. English isn’t my first language, and many times I’ve come across sentences like this. I’ve even been collecting them whenever I came across them, on Reddit mostly. I’ve always wanted to find out why this type of sentence only occurred in English (to my knowledge). I’ve always thought it was because a lot of words could be interpreted as either nouns, adjectives, verbs or even adverbs, while retaining the same spelling.

Anyway, I’m glad I finally found the term for these sentences. Many thanks.
Russia also claims that Moskva wasn't hit by Ukrainian missiles.

Evading ABM isn't easy. You need to generate delta-V to move out of the way, and then be able to get back into target, all the while not knowing if an interceptor is actually going to be coming or when.

ABM is harder than it used to be, but that's because we decided we didn't want to use nukes on interceptors. And that's because we don't want to have to get the president to release nukes to be able do the intercept. Which means we can launch when we think there's an incoming missile without much of an issue, and our reaction time is decreased.

There's nothing in the way our interceptors work that make 1000 harder than 10, aside from the fact that we don't have 1000. On the flipside, the 40 or so we do have, that are likely to kill about 10 incoming warheads. But the Russians don't know which 10. So every target they decide they have to kill needs 11 warheads, not 1. Which man's they can hit 10% of the targets they used to be able to. Or accept that some of the targets they think they should kill won't be dead.
What's the alternative? To use absolute paths for everything? That seems kind of tedious, and may be slightly less performant if the kernel has to do more dentry lookups.

I think the idea of a current working directory is a reasonable one, it's just that the limitation that a process can only have one CWD at a time is kind of arbitrary when you think about it.

I could even see having commands that take multiple CWDs. Like a move operation could take a source and a destination CWD as an alternative to specifying source and destination paths.
So Chinese government gets a version of Windows that works for the customer instead of for Microsoft... why can't we all get that option?
teach: "I make people understand; I make lectures full of explanations that convey insight; I make assignments and tests; I make tomorrow's makers".

criticize: "I make revelations of shortcomings and flaws; I make recommendations for improvements".

take care of others: "I make broken people whole"

Some ideas on what to write on a name tag next to "I make: "

- "a six figure salary doing something I like"

- "love, not war"

Sure Chicago is segregated (though I find the North/South boundary, like all generalizations misses a considerable amount of complexity) but this is true of all US cities.

San Francisco for instance is segregated pretty dramatically with the Asian population (and a mixture of Latinos) pushed to the western edge and the white population centrally located. Not to mention the elephant in the room of Oakland.

When we start talking about diversity of other sorts such as income, education, nationality etc the picture is similar.

That is to say, my experience of San Francisco was one of homogeny, the opposite of my experience of Chicago. But I've experienced Chicago more broadly as well, so as I say I'd like some numbers to backup the assertion that San Francisco is more welcoming of inter racial families.
I'm excited about a company that will ensure a good, compatible experience with linux on a laptop. I develop on mac osx and linux vms (vagrant). I want to move to linux but the linux desktop experience just isn't there yet.
I wish there were a picture to show scale. I did see the dimensions but something for comparison would be nice.
No, it seems like a terrible policy idea just like giving people food stamps instead of money - less utility to the recipients than straight up cash, high overhead for the program including the development of rules on what is an acceptable expense (can I just give all the subsidy to my mom for driving me around? What if she creates a 3-car competitor to Uber? What if she actually never drives me around?), will appeal greatly to people who worry that giving poor people money would be terrible because they will just spend it on drugs and Cadillacs, etc.
It's a living document, we will add R resources.
Assume I live in a rather secure hole underground, by myself. There are very few things I can do, short of connecting to the outside world and interacting with something in an illegal manner, that can constitute a crime. Maybe I build something that can harm someone remotely, but that requires intent to do something to interact with the outside world, so I'm discounting that here. I'm talking about doing something in my own hole, by myself, with no intent of leaving or interacting with anyone else.

Should the data that constitutes my actions be available to 'everyone'? I argue it does not. It's not your data. It's my data.

Now if I decide to leave my hole and go out into the world and interact with others, things get more complicated. If there is an opportunity where my information becomes entangled with others, I'm all for sharing it with everyone, with one caveat. I'd like to know who accessed my data, and if they accessed it simultaneously with other people's data, I'd like to know their data as well. I'm down with charging for it as well. Keeps the costs of doing surveillance on everyone high.

BTW, I'm well aware of the dilemma you are attempting to put your Lord into here. I just don't think it's that easy to dispel.
Yep, they will challenge it in court, keep running while it happens and then fix the problems and continue their license.

At worst (for Uber) it's just some free organic traffic for their competitors.
Uber is funded by Saudi money, same deal.
The author's later point is that this may not be an option.

"Where a home just has one of these [AI / connected home]. Like an in-sink trash disposal, or an answering machine."

Consider phones. In the early 2000's, most people had a cell phone. By 2010, most people have a smart phone. These devices are much more capable than their predecessors. I've read books (Hans Rosling, Factfulness) that suggested communities with access to smartphones have a 3% GDP increase over communities with cell phones. That number may seem small, but remember it's a global scale. 3% is a significant amount.

The current state of AI is where cell phones were 20 years ago. We may get to a point where not using AI (as you said, "not participating") may put yourself at a clear disadvantage - you will not be as capable as your peers.

It's sort of like those 50-60 year olds in the workforce who refuse to use a computer. They've always done their job a particular way, but they are not as productive as some of the younger hires who use computers. Then they are shocked when they are laid off - their current (disadvantaged) output is far below what is expected, since technology has become ubiquitous and people expect you to be able to use a computer to do your job.
Anecdotal: my cousin is a sysadmin and he recently took a certification class for z/OS. He says it was probably the best career-enhancing step he's ever made.
That's working on an issue from two different directions. We work towards considering a simulation probable because of what we ourselves are working towards creating.

Stating the cause/creator first and looking for evidence of it is not very reasonable.
Thats about as honest as saying: Democrat playbook; strawman all other belief systems into being immoral, while not bothering to form a basic understanding of them.

Please, take some time to understand why people have different ideas. It is seldom if ever, malice. If you cannot relate, keep your mouth shut, or ask questions.
Wait... is that a Sourcehut user in the wild?

EC2 micro instance is $54 a year, so it's only cheaper if you only want 10 months or less.
makes sense, but there's some bubblicious wafting in the air, and typically when quantity increases, quality decreases. your point's well founded though.
It is not hard to keep a record from leaking: just don't allow pre-releases, or watermark them, or MSI them (MSI makes the disk violate redbook so it can't be ripped). The whole reason that NPR and the like get a record one week before street is because once the records are on trucks to retail (1 week out) it leaks without fail.

The REM record I just worked on never leaked. Why? We protected the prerelease distribution and people honored that. We also didn't put out the full record early to anyone, only a sampler.

Leaks are always from carelessness or are deliberate. Either or.
This wouldn't be the first time that a startup - including recent YC-funded one I can think of - went from "hooray, we're absolutely psyched to be coming into 2011 with our AWESOME new stuff, stay tuned" to "sorry, we're ditching all our customers and completely dropping the product because we've been 'talent acquired', bye", all in the space of about a month.

This is a real problem with the notion of startup as a portfolio item for a talent acquisition.
To be a great founder, you just need to be good at one thing: building stuff that people will love and buy. The rest you can either learn along they way, or hire someone to do for you.

Dreaming of algorithms doesn't make you understand customers, help you get funding, or help you build a great team. If you love your customers, and build something they will fall in love with, the rest will follow.
And if the heat of the fire swells the wood? It's well worth being able to smash the window to get out if you have to.
I'm not OP, but my opinion would be that APT does do some things better than npm etc but there's still some potential problems.

Probably one of the most obvious is that access to the repos is over unencrypted HTTP connections which opens the process up to tampering (depending on the attacker) for example injecting an older version of a package with a known security issue.

There are so many different kinds of hackers here, that I'd almost have to disagree. There aren't many folks here who could tell me all I wanted to know about Haskell, asymmetric encryption, the finer points of being a non-technical founder and the different strengths of various revision control systems. But all of us see stuff like that here every day. We either ignore that which we do not understand, or we look it up.
Of course there will always be people who choose to remain homeless, but their goal is only to reduce homelessness by ~83%.
Erm, the OP was explaining that if you have already launched, your YC experience differs from what you might expect. Fair point I thought, and might be useful for those considering the timing of their YC application. I have noticed that some people feel that having launched already gives them more "cred" in the process, and the OP points the downside to that.
Do you know any LPCs or LPSWs?

First thing they'd tell you is that while mental illness isn't biological, that doesn't mean there's a cure. Some people could go 20+ years in therapy and still end up only a slightly less sick person than they were going in.

Also, many mental illnesses become biological in the sense that brain chemistry actually changes.
As with any new language, the most important question is: is there an emacs mode for it? ;-)

For what it's worth, it is actually illegal for US-based companies to require a login or any other nonsense to unsubscribe. CAN-SPAM (for all its many faults) is actually pretty specific about making unsubscribing from a newsletter very easy.
To my knowledge, neither has a "days since contact" feature.
Someone, quick, make an API that accepts a stringified JSON object as a parameter, and put that JSON peanut butter into that XML chocolate.
Nothing at first, though we do validate that frame_rate is <= 300. We'd maybe even applaud you as the first user to try this. (Then we'd ask you to stop.)

A FPS-based pricing change is on our radar, though. In both directions: low frame rate video (like screencasts) should , and we'll formalize that soon for both low and high FPS video.

At some point, there is a fine line between protecting against abuse and having easy-to-understand pricing. 2c/minute is much more user-friendly than 2c per 30 frames. We haven't seen much abuse, and 99.9% of our customers use 20-30fps, so this hasn't been a high priority.

> Education usually blasts away many natural preconceived notions about the world.

In some cases, agreed. However, in other cases, it seems to do just the opposite: it seems to introduce new or enhance pre-existing biases and philosophies. From my perspective, it appears to happen most often with the so-called "soft" sciences, and most especially in things like literature and gender/race and non-mainstream sexual studies. There's very much a cult-like aspect to some academic fields, making them have more of the characteristics of a religion than of science.
How about papers? Almost everything has been written up.

A variety of crashes. Also, as a kid, for reasons I don't really remember, jumping off our bicycles was the pinnacle of fun for awhile.

Oh, and I very regularly ride (or try to ride) without hands. One or two bicycles were fairly stable, but most were highly unstable.
I think the most valuable parts of this book for me were the stories that involved solving problems within constraints. If you work with a large enough dataset or management that won't allow you to buy the hardware to just make your problems go away constraints are still a big part of software development.
