Im not sure I understand your question fully. But if you are asking which countries require you to hire locally before foreign France and Australia are two examples.
Welp, I guess here's your evidence for 24/192 audio being not-useless.
Why would you map your REST API to tables and not views (or stored procedures)? When would you ever want to have tables interfacing with your application unless you're doing something absurdly under-/de-normalized?
Everybody knows Patrick loves mini-sites ;-)

> Who's doing the forcing? Is it a job? Is the religious practice safe?

Well, one of the freedoms of religion in the USA is that we don't have a religious test for office. We get rid of freedom of religion and... that's not "discrimination" right?
According to Tolstoy, anything, which transfers emotions of the author could be considered art.

The part I didn't really include is their list of 7 requirements, which are...
1-The acceptable A/V container formats (e.g. Fragmented MP4, WebM, etc.);
2-The acceptable audio and video codecs (e.g. H.264, VP8, AAC, etc.);
3-The streaming protocol (e.g. HTTP, RTP, etc.);
4-A way for the streaming protocol to adapt to available bandwidth;
5-A way of conveying information about available streams and other parameters to the streaming player module;
6-A way of supporting protected content (e.g. with DRM systems);
7-A way of exposing all this functionality into HTML5

So...yeah, definitely DRM. And not coy, as you point out.
There seem to be two definitions of why Groupon is important: the first is why the model works, and the second is why this particular company has a lock on that model. I can mostly agree with the arguments for the model, but don't see what particular advantage Groupon has as a company that would justify its proposed valuations.

As a merchant, I've been in contact with Groupon and have looked closely at their system. Everything makes sense to me about it other than the cost. To use them, I'd need to be selling something at a 70% discount (their take is half of the discounted price), which for me means selling for about 50% of my cost to produce. For some businesses, this is a justifiable marketing expense, but for me, I think there are better ways to benefit from giving away things for free.

While there is considerable consumer loyalty to Groupon, I don't see any such merchant loyalty. As soon as someone offers me a Groupon clone that offers to take only 10% of the sales, I'm there. Why doesn't Google put its $Billions into attracting merchants to a new site rather than buying an existing site that looks extremely vulnerable to future competition? Is there some lock in I'm not seeing?
I've thought that Groupon is important because it has created a new online sales niche. Creating new niches is extremely rare.

This seems almost too simple to be correct. However, Groupon has created a niche / vertical / category that enables local deals to be promoted to the masses in a new and interesting way online.
They crush pigs to death? What? Nothing would surprise me at this point, but I couldnt find a citation for that at first glance.
You’re citing things that happened almost 20 years ago if you’re talking about Solaris and BeOS.
Ted Kennedy asked the Soviets to help him defeat Reagan, explaining that Soviet-American relations would be critically important in the 1984 election and offering to fly to Moscow to help with their messaging. (Of course, like with Nixon and Trump, many people do dispute this characterization and Kennedy claimed the entire story was made up.)
YC has been trying a bunch of things new to them. Not sure how they are working out yet:

* Supporting more hardware specific companies.

* Supporting more biomed device tech companies.

* Scaling online with startup school.

* Trying to scale the number of companies who get accepted into the program.

There is still a lot to figure out in the 'nurture small/young companies' space.
That said, each country has its own unique challenges.
Don't even need VR to feel that. I distinctly remember playing Tribes or Tribes 2 and using the jetpack until the juice ran out; free falling from a large height gave me butterfies in my stomach, if that's the correct phrase for it.
So the purpose of taking a picture of yourself is to make sure that the photo as depicted on the ID matches the person who is completing the flow. This is important as a stolen ID should not be usable for the purposes of online identity verification.
We’re not in the business of selling your data, but of providing a secure, privacy-oriented way for businesses that have to perform ID checks to do so. In the situation described above, we’re providing identity verification services for Sift in the context of the data subject access requests they’re receiving.
I know you reference your introductory notebook throughout your docs but I think it would be helpful to include some of the plots inline in your docs.

Seeing that this lib is built on top of statsmodels my first response was that I'll just keep using statsmodels. However the simplicity of the diagnostic plots actually seems really nice value add. Showcasing those plots right in your docs might make it more attractive to people checking out your project for the first time.
> Isn't that a good thing for me as a consumer? I like the ability to decrypt and modify my own devices.

If you're the sort of person who buys wifi-based-internet-enabled door bells, but you don't want someone who steals your doorbell to (a) be able to extract your wifi password or (b) be able to get the thing to work at all, you might appreciate resistance to the thief's attacks.

Of course, you can also address this security concern by just not buying an internet-enabled doorbell.
Ruby blocks?
A 2015 mbp works pretty well, are there problems with the newer ones?
This article looks at non-US but missed non-Latin where things gets worse.

Arabic, Chinese, Hebrew, Russian among others.

When set to different layout many apps ignore common actions like Cmd/Ctrl + C and you need to make sure you're using a latin layout.
I live out in the woods and had gone morel hunting a few times without success. I had heard so many stories about how good they were and i was getting frustrated b/c it seemed like the perfect setting for them.

One day I was mowing my back yard and was stopped in my tracks by this beautiful morel standing proud right in the middle of my yard like it was placed there by God himself lol.

They are incredibly tasty.

Also highly recommend folks try those kits you’re talking about, they are really fun.
> A more sophisticated controller would either slow down the beam when entering a corner

This isn't really possible in an analog controller; since the X and Y axes are driven independently, it's hard to know when you're at a corner. The galvo driver that I have seen just uses damping factors for LF and HF portions of the signal.
Musk, Jobs and Gates, to use your examples, are/were all phenomenally driven people. I'm not sure you find hugely driven people as much as are eventually confronted with them.
You could have afforded VPS hosting in the beginning (starts from $20 per month for decent specs), and immediately switched to dedicated hosting once you outgrew the VPS (from $100 per month). AWS was never the cheapest for any given level of performance; you've always paid a huge premium for rarely needed flexibility.
This is so true! Ever since I was a kid I've wanted a security camera to play spy. I'd look at them at Fry's or Amazon or wherever, but there were so many varieties an no clear winner.

Then came Dropcam with sexy packaging, a simple price, and ... well-made software with a subscription model. Next, they're snapped up by Google for $555 million. Would they have been acquired if they only did the hardware and nothing else?
As of 2015 "Week 1" ending Jan 10th (http://www.cdc.gov/flu/weekly/), almost all the flu tested is type A, almost all of that that is further tested is H3N2, and of those further tested, 35% responds well to the Northern hemisphere vaccine, 65% does not.

What's annoying is that of the 65% that's further tested, it's a good match for the vaccine we're preparing for the 2015 Southern Hemisphere vaccine. So the public health types were on the ball, just not quite fast enough, especially given the very long lead time required for the current major egg based vaccine (both to develop new seed strains that'll grow well in eggs, and then production).

Ah, well, it's a good time for introverts like myself to practice "social distancing", made a lot less onerous by the net. My father mentioned a couple of days ago that the local Catholic high school, wiped out by a tornado in 2011 and finally reopened in its new permanent building for this semester, elected to close and disinfect after not very many days, so many students had or were coming down with the flu.
It was a bit irritating to see the kid running up to the model of the rocket ship with excitement and no goggles on. Why lie and make it seem like you'll be able to see these "holograms" without the goggles on? Everyone walking around with these big ski goggles strapped to their head seems worse than Google Glass, which is awkward enough as it is.
On the subject of tools: I'd like to clarify that Scribble was not designed to solve academic text-formatting problems; it was designed for Racket documentation. It's fair to say that we subsequently improved Scribble in academic-friendly paper- and book-writing directions, but like so much of what the current Racket developers do, it was motivated by programmer experience rather than academic tasks or credit. The current developers can only work so fast, but I hope Racket continues to attract more contributors who build more tools.

On the topic of parentheses and submodules: I can understand why some consider parentheses to be an obstacle, but I'm puzzled that you've singled out their use for submodules. Syntactic forms in `#lang racket` use parentheses, and I think they've worked well in practice for submodules. That said, submodules are most powerful when you don't use them directly and instead use (or create) constructs that are implemented as submodules. For the example you have in mind, a new syntactic form may well fit better --- and maybe should be one of the many constructs that are available out of the box.
Some of the features might be redundant (at least for some use cases) so it's not like "missing features" is necessarily a deal-breaker.

Not that you said so, but it's something one can think when he hears that Riot might be "missing stuff".
There were a few 'solutions' that I was content with. You can have a workspace where you have these things (htop, other monitoring tools) and you can also have it in your vim/emacs status-line if you want to keep track of it while working.

I've never actually found that I need something _everywhere_ as much as I need to have it _somewhere_. Monitoring of things like these included.

Edit: I hesitate to call them real solutions, because obviously they are not for everyone. Some people need to see their CPU/RAM usage, network usage, clock and battery level at all times.
ah, cool. google "ux305 newegg" only returned a link for the ux31.
I honestly don't know if I could live with myself. I just turned down a really great position in favor of a start-up I'm working on, specifically because I don't want to be in this guy's position.
Why is everyone being so charitable? He is the CEO of a billion-dollar company who controls the intimate personal data of over 400 million people. This "he's still young" argument is ridiculous and lets him and his company get away with anything without any accountability. If he really is as poor and helpless as these types of comments seem to imply, then he shouldn't be running the company.
For how long do you think she should be paying for that poor choice?
The problem is that it isn't a choice of MSIE6/7/8 or MSIE9, it is MSIE6/7/8 AND 9. Maybe I've just been burnt one too many times, but they really should just give up. Sure, it might pass a few tests here and there, but MSIE9 will just be ANOTHER buggy web browser whose idiosyncrasies web designers will have to consider when they build someone a web site.

Anyone can make software to pass standardized test, but take my word for it, MSIE9 is just another MS browser full of wildly inconsistent renderings of simple HTML, a half baked Javascript implementation and fruity vendor specific extensions that developers will have to cater for.

MSIE6/7 and 8 aren't going anywhere soon.
It was a terrible idea to have a class of debts that can't be discharged with bankruptcy. That it's mostly incurred by young who lack perspective makes it even worse.

Someday people will look back on this the way we view debtor's prison.
How does it cost $40k a year for tuition? It seems that college fees range from $5k to $40k plus. I can understand that better lecturers cost a bit more, but that can't explain much. What are the cost structures like?

Or is the higher cost just being driven by greater availability of credit for the students? If this is the case, unis will find a way to absorb the extra cash, but not in a good way.
Exactly!

My labmates and I (all PhD students in robotics) read through that _entire_ article up until that statement. We work like mad as paid engineering grad students, covered by grants and industrial partnerships. Because we serve a useful role to the University and our collaborators / partners, our grad school is _earned_ sans debt. We get an education chocked full of useful skills; they get cheap labor for 4-6 years.

It is ridiculous to expect handouts and/or government subsidies for a degree with so few (obviously) practical skills.

On a related note, I'm disappointed with the NYT shock-and-awe tactics. The degree sought should have been in the first paragraph!
A similiar "paradox" is the infamous Monty Hall Problem:

When I was young, I said to God, 'God, tell me the mystery of the universe.' But God answered, 'That knowledge is for me alone.' So I said, 'God, tell me the mystery of the peanut.' Then God said, 'Well George, that's more nearly your size.' And he told me.

If only eshell was more usable. My favourite setup so far is i3 + emacs + xterm.
Get back to me when the implementation can group the topic words into a decent summary.

The rest of it is pretty bush league.
It probably depends on the type of programming and the challenge it presents.

A typical month, for me, has probably 5% exciting programming work. The rest is just tedious churn that you inevitably have to do to support the exciting bit.
I'm looking for something like that, but I'm afraid of using any google developer services, such as GCP, for personal projects. What if I breach their TOS somehow and get banned, or what if I didn't breach their TOS and still get banned?

Can't afford to test my luck until I've finished migrating all my accounts off my gmail.
And Heroku is great for simple apps.

When you start having a lot of pieces to manage eg. cache, database, auth, multiple applications then Kubernetes comes into its own.

Because then you can scale, monitor, trace, debug, log, backup, audit, encrypt and visualise all of those pieces in exactly the same way.

And do it irrespective of which cloud you use or whether it's even in the cloud at all.
There are a lot* of cheap 2.4Ghz wireless outlets that can be flashed with custom firmware that supports power usage & outlet control over MQTT & other protocols. Keep in mind that these devices have to be manually configured & calibrated.

https://github.com/arendst/tasmota/

* Some new versions of these outlets come with firmware that can not be patched/flashed so do some research.

Also most of these are limited to 10 amps of restive load... inductive loads like motors, compressors, and to an extent power supplies, will have peak loads 3-4x there 'real' consumption which can damage the relay if its not rated for the high initial load. If anyone knows of a cheap alternative or cheap DIY that can handle +20A I would be very interested as it would be nice to be able to control things like fridges without worrying the outlet will fail closed & my food will spoil.
That vehicle is more reasonably described as a handcar or draisine. And if no one will take you across the border, that seems like a fine, low-tech solution. Leaving North Korea by "hand-pushed trolley" makes me visualize a press gang walking behind the trolley and pushing it along.
"Dumping" is simply using non-local money to sell something at less than normal value.

It is normally applied to international trade because such an action generally requires systemic support from a government to continue for a sufficiently long timescale.

However, it can certainly be applied to local economic products and regions--Rockefeller and Standard Oil being one of the notable examples.
Worth noting this is the summary of most all accidents with humans at the wheel driving regularly. This whole issue is a matter of psychology.
> I've been rear ended several times, almost gotten hit by reckless drivers, and a few friends have died in traffic accidents

All of which will happen to people riding in autonomous vehicles.

I get what you're saying. But almost nobody fears their own driving on the road, they fear other people's driving.

I mean, it's really too complex to run k8s yourself so Google made an automatic tool so you don't have to.
Doesn't mean much, if you are a developer for company X and you have restriction in your contract which are fairly standard these days that grant full or partial ownership on any thing you do on or off the job while being employed sticking an open source license for it won't save you.

I've seen quite a bit of "open source" projects being pull off when the employer discovered them, and while it's true that you can't effectively pull anything off the internet, it also means that no one with a shred of common sense would ever touch them again with a 10 feet pole.

This is slightly more complicated since it's been released by the corporation under an OSS license.
It's also less about employees doing something on their own, and more about the company fearing that some one external will lay claims to parts of the cod from what i understand.
But there can be still internal legal complications that would result in this being pulled off completely or dropped.
Most personality classifications have some bases and some value, but this particular exercise really turned me off.

I'm ok with saying "this is an attempt at classification, it's an extra data point", but I'm not ok with resorting to scammy techniques, if anything it tells me that the classification can't stand on its own and has therefore very little value.
> Inflicting that complexity on you all would help with margin control, but ugh. What we've done instead is set a blended price that fits most apps running on Fly.io, and decided to just eat the extra cost from outliers. If you want to exploit that, run an app in Sydney with a whole bunch of users in India. We'll lose money on your app and you will win one round of capitalism.

An issue I've seen becoming more a reality lately is that echo chambers are becoming self-sustaining. Moderators on popular discussion sites are becoming more and more emotionally driven, and maintain the status quo to the point that you can predict what you'll read and see well beforehand.

The above being strictly an online issue, the answer I'd have: spend less time discussing things online, and more time doing it in real life.
Yes, of course that's who I meant.
Is there anything preventing a fork of Go?
I imagine the Antares launch explosion has something to do with it, since the Antares was using a refurbished Russian engine as the base stage.

Plus, if the Pentagon's goal is independence from a Russian supply chain, buying parts from Russia kind of works against that.
Man, I think that any stored proc in SQL that gets over a thousand lines deserves this treatment. This one proc was close to 10k lines.

It was awful. I hated working on that damn thing. But it made me smile when I found that little Easter egg.
Honestly, I have no idea where this hatred of Zed Shaw comes from. Yes, the man is opinionated, but he's no more of an asshole about it than most people (which is to say, not much of an asshole at all).
No, no it does not. How is this headline still up? It's totally inaccurate. Equity crowdfunding from unaccredited investors was provided for in the JOBS Act. The SEC doesn't get to set the law, Congress does.

What the SEC has been doing has been figuring out rules for how this law will be implemented. NOT allowing equity crowdfunding was never an option.

Here is the SEC headline: "SEC Adopts Rules to Facilitate Smaller Companies’ Access to Capital"

That is accurate.

Here is the fourth sentence of the press release:

"The rules are mandated by Title IV of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (JOBS) Act. "

It's really embarrassing this has been up on Hacker News so long and not fixed (or commented on? wow).
There is opportunity cost for this. How much does it cost to run a system like that?
A dollar then would have given me just over half a mil in 2021! And here I thought real estate investing has been the best decision strategy of my life haha.
At quantum scale or near the speed of light newtonian mechanics breaks down, so we know it a local approximation. However, for set circumstances it approximates it does it well. For many decades physists searched universally true theory to no avail.

My point is this, IQ seems to have signal. It probably doesn't hold up in extreme circumstances. Psychology in particular seems to have a difficult time holding large enough studies to find universal constants that we should accept that IQ might be the best local approxination for now.
Sorry, I was exaggerating and didn't make it clear what I meant. Yes people care. A lot of people will especially say something or another. Most won't actually not connect to Clubhouse with their contacts though.

So I see the same dissatisfaction. I find that to be closer to slacktivism level of caring for most people though. If they stop using an app or don't use it from the get go for X reason, it usually doesn't align with how they're using other apps. So technically they did not use something because of the dissatisfaction you described. However, they aren't actually applying that even remotely consistently.

You are aware of the Barnum effect, I presume? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barnum_effect)
Only a handful of US airports would receive A380s (from international destinations) before Covid, and currently few of any of those routes are flying A380s at all (most replaced with a340s, 777, 787 etc). The a380 tail cam probably can’t help us with this one! But I wish they’d add the tail cam to all the wide bodies with IFE. It’s fun to watch on the journey.
The difference being one is the laws of physics and the other is artificially man made, doing nothing.
those are for opening the doors but you cannot use them to start the engine
Obligatory: do people still use Facebook?
I would suspect that most people don't come close to using all the ram in their computer in normal use. Whether they use adblock or not will not have any noticeable affect on the computer performance apart from the blocking of ads.
Hey I remember when you launched! I even gave you some "business" advice - http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1166641.

Well done, waiting anxiously for the rest of your story (you drama queen :-P).
A piece of equipment could be left repaired due to damage, and I could easily imagine the repairs being hasty or haphazard, given they're in a war zone, due to lack of materials. So it's not that far fetched.
