Nice! It looks like it uses a combination of DOM and SVG. I like how the arrows start and endpoints can be rearranged with the mouse and snap in place.

The inevitable question is why not base this on an existing library... depending on the project I'd probably reach for something like D3 or cytoscape.js to build a map like this (mostly because implementing auto layout algorithms is a lot of work to do from scratch, unless it is just for fun :-).
Ditto on the 85. Stick with the 85 or similar. I later had a 92 which was sweet but the symbolic capabilities made it easy to not retain a lot of early calculus.
I can only wish! It was just a way to avoid spam (or hoping for it haha)
You, sir, have a very odd view of the world.
My story isn't about me. It's a hypothetical based on things that have actually been done to someone else.
Building anything on the web and expecting it to last more than 5 years is foolish in my opinion. But yes, if your company is expecting to build an app that won't be re-written for more than 5 years then by all means do it in vanilla javascript, but you'll likely end up building a custom framework anyways.
Nope, not traveling. I was just sitting at home and it exploded.
My favorite aphorism for this is "There's no code like no code."
Miss is also used for unmarried women as well in many places. It’s even in the title of events like Miss World for example
While it would be more correct to call it the proximate cause, I don't know if I would call it "severely misleading". Maybe mildly clickbait-y. It definitely was a cause, and as far as I can tell from the report, they didn't change the system that identified passengers with 'Miss' as children—they just changed it so that 'Miss' as a title for adults was autocorrected to 'Ms'. So to some extent, it seems like they disagree with you on what the root cause was
I never realized that we referred to citizens of New Mexico as New Mexicans. It makes sense, I don't know what else you'd call them, but it was confusing to see that for the first time.

I think it's more about finding the right middle ground than anything else. So expanding is good if people are still responsible in a way.

I agree that a lot of time the institution are liable (mostly for ordering people to achieve impossible target).
Does all publicized data go through Pfizer?
Or you could be charitable to the author and at least try to understand their view instead of assuming that it’s some cold political move.

Machine learning detection of people’s gender in the real world is anywhere from annoying to distressing to trans people because all the training data is cis people and so they get matched with their AGAB. Can you imagine how terrible it would be to already hate and be super self-conscious about your voice only to have Spotify start telling you via recommendations that you don’t pass well enough. Yikes.
> I think Facebook should offer their users the option to remove their phone numbers with a real deletion.

Man sometimes I think people forget phone books existed for a long time.
Turn showdead on. I too, am concerned about some of the groupthink on HN, but it's not as severe as you'd suspect. What I do disagree with is comments being flagged/obliterated for simply being unpopular.
Twitch doesn't enforce their own rules. It's the reason why Amouranth is the highest paid female streamer.
>the Google+ saga reads almost exactly like this

Does it? IIRC a lot of people wanted to switch to G+ in summer 2011 or thereabouts, and it was getting a lot of buzz. But, by the time they got around to opening registration to people who didn't know someone who worked at Google, nobody gave a shit anymore, and Facebook had had enough time to address most of the stuff that was pissing everyone off anyway.

I always got the impression that Google+ nearly had it, but Google fumbled on the rollout - not that they were unable to overcome networking effects on Facebook.
As a fellow driving enthusiast, I agree. When shopping for my last car, the manufacturer's outgoing model had a sport exhaust setting but did not pipe exhaust noise into the cabin. The incoming model did. (Note this is an actual mechanical opening or tube, not BMW-style synthesized noise.)

I ended up with the special-edition outgoing model for other reasons, including greater horsepower, but wouldn't necessarily object to piping in exhaust noise. Playing back recorded engine noise, on the other hand, seems just wrong to me.

Tangentially, a neighbor one street over has a pair of Ferraris that he and his wife track at Laguna Seca. I can always hear when they drive by (rarely, they have other cars they use on a daily basis) and it's a splendid exhaust note.
First of all I want to say I agree with you. Getting the UI of a form is make or break, and largely the validation is the reason why a form sucks or it doesn't. My only question is with the value of making it drag and drop. Won't this scaffolding limit the ability to customize a form for a specific business need?
They knew from the very start that they would never go to Mars. Probably let's try it and gather/scam/steal what we can.
"It baffles me why more entrepreneurs haven't realized that 87% of the energy sources we use are going to be switching to other sources in our lifetimes"

What leads you to think entrepreneurs haven't realized this? What should they be doing once they do realize it?
The title of the article is a bit unfortunate. The context is about "information overload" from over-consumption and not that the act of reading is itself harmful.
That's really cool! But there is no way I could use that at work -- our merging is a mess :D
Check out TastyTrade.com -- their archives, their daily shows Market Measures, Closing the Gap, and others.
Wait. This is even crazier than I thought. I just looked closer at your "fixes". You're passing a pointer by reference? You're really stretching.

Look at the article. It contains c++ code for a swap litmus test. It doesn't look like your "fix". Your swap is not the traditional swap(a,b) method/function called for by the author.

Here is a traditional swap function: http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/algorithm/swap/
Sure, that's fair. I guess my point was that it's hard to produce something of value without some kind of practice before hand, in some form. (Maybe short to novel isn't a perfect transition, yes.)
> That dollar amount sounds pretty ludicrous.

The UK soccer league makes 2 billion euros per year - assume that this reality show runs for three or four years and you got yourself a big fat bag of money, especially as this would be broadcasted and marketed across the globe (including the US, which have a high population but 0 interest in soccer).
If you are referring to the monthly jobs threads i was wondering the same thing, i would have expected more people searching for mobile developer (especially freelancers), but i guess mobile apps are not yet the new "website".
Does this work on any of the mobile browsers? I'd kill for something to block stuff properly on mobile.
Yep. 1.5 million euro / 120,000 computers = 12.5 euro per machine per year.

That's probably negligible considering costs of installation, productivity, support, etc.

(I'm still happy to hear about this, but I admit that it's more ideological for me than economic.)
The Texas problem was persistent, insufficient supply - the extreme pricing was just a symptom of that.

Do participants in ERCOT's system not trade energy swap contracts? Why?

None of that new pumped hydro is online yet though - existing pumped hydro capacity in the NEM is minor (essentially only Tumut and Wivenhoe).

One reason that the NEM has been fairly robust might be that it is divided into regions with only moderate-capacity interconnects, such that each region is managed to be able to "stand on its own".
(Other MealSquares cofounder here)

The reason we haven't started our crowdfunding campaign yet is because our following isn't big enough yet. Soylent hit its target within the first 24 hours because the DIY recipe already had a huge following, and the general wisdom for kickstarters seems to be that you need at least 30-40% of your funding nailed down before you hit the "go" button. So in addition to feedback on the product itself, we are curious if HN has any thoughts for things like slogans and other product messaging, and customer verticals that we might be able to market the product to.
Best tips, thanks a lot for posting.
It confirms it as being Webkit based, but not necessarily that it is running on the web.
Absolutely, but isn't that a problem that all major cities have? My favorite Asian restaurants in NYC aren't in Chinatown Manhattan but Queens, specifically because of the extremely affordable rents that allow specific businesses with cheap food to survive.
it should be expressed with conditionals anyway.

Well, a hand-wavy explanation could be the gravity interacts with hyperspace[1] allowing the detector to pick it up FTL.

1) it seems his version of hyperspace has a lot of interaction with gravity (e.g. gravity waves like The Deep)
No, it's just plain ol' EBS which delivers a minimum of X IOPS, where X is between 100 and 2000 (unless they have improved this since I last checked).

AWS does have some SSD-based storage, but only for the larger instance types.
> because there are often different possible decompositions of functions into legitimate "one things" at distinct granularities.

Actually, it's fairly well established. DRY: Don't repeat yourself. Yes, if you need to assign 50 values, and each is unique, than breaking them up might be difficult. However, these aren't the rules. These are the exceptions. Heck, even your graph example could be an exception.

However, in my experience, most code does contain hits on how things can be broken up into smaller, more manageable pieces.

> the coarse decomposition is arguably better than the finer-grained one

=) The finer-grained one is arguably better than the coarse decomposition because it removes repeated lines of code and makes it easier to test the smaller methods. That the total number of lines of code is increase is unimportant, because you rarely look at all the total code in a module. Rather, you are focused on individual components. If the individual component is smaller, it makes it easier to understand.

I appreciate your point of view. And I agree, it's not easy to make things smaller without losing something. However, that doesn't mean we shouldn't try.
Yes, I know, but that's not what the quoted reddit comment claims:

> To the absolute limit of our ability to measure it ... when an object is dropped, it begins falling instantaneously. ...This is fairly earthshaking, really. Because it implies that somehow a "signal" of some kind is getting from the ground to Wile E. faster than the speed of light. Which is supposed to be impossible.

Where I live, the levi jeans that cost $30 in the states cost $120. The local brand jeans disintegrate after a month or so....I see visits to SF or anywhere else in the state as shopping trips.
I think she pulled up stumps and left at some point over issues with how some of the community was responding to her? Something like that. Real shame because she inspired strong interest in so many who read her explanations.
This makes no sense.

Price in dollars (or any other currency) is a proxy for value, but not the same thing. A loaf of bread has the same value whether it costs $1, $5, or $0.05.
> Sega Japan were famously strict about the titles they'd allow to be licensed on the Mega Drive. It was Sega America who allowed any old release to be licensed.

I didn't know that about Sega in Japan; usually when I think of strict licensing I think of Nintendo of America, the 10NES chip and Atari v. Nintendo [0].

> When Mario Bros was a hit everyone seemed to jump on the bandwagon to make a Mario clone.

You're on the money here. I'd argue this pattern repeats through a number of industries; some clear examples in automotive are the 'Pony car', Minivans, and the Grill style of the Aston Martin DB9 (okay, last one's a stretch).

why didn't you post the entire statement?

We disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement
by supporting each other as extended families and “villages” that
collectively care for one another, especially our children, to the degree
that mothers, parents, and children are comfortable.

I don't see anything nefarious or particularly "Marxist" about this. A conservative or Christian would surely agree that greater community and cultural bonds and involvement in the welfare of youth is morally just and in alignment with traditional American values.
He keeps calling bitcoin a 'scam', without defining what entity is perpetrating this scam.

A more appropriate question would be, "Who is not perpetrating the scam?" Crypto and the exchanges are unregulated --- which means that anyone and everyone can get in on the scam.

Example of a bitcoin "pump and dump" scam.

The pump --- "Famous wealthy entrepreneur" announces with much fanfare that he bought a large quantity of bitcoin.

The dump --- "Famous wealthy entrepreneur" sells said large quantity of bitcoin after the price increases 20% in reaction to his announcement.

I am not saying this scam is what happened. I am saying there is nothing currently in place to prevent this sort of scam from happening.

Do this with any regulated security and "famous wealthy entrepreneur" would be in legal trouble. Instead, he is scamming naive crypto "investors" for fun and profit and daring the SEC to take action to stop it.
This is a very complex question. House size, age, location, thermal load, occupancy, current hvac, and more all play apart in it.

A large older home that was retrofitted with central air, you should consider the option of pulling it out completely and going with mini splits. It's more expensive to install but will provide a lot of flexibility in how to cool the home.

A newer house, designed with central air, pick a seer rating that can fit your budget. Talk to at least a couple of different hvac people who can understand thermal load.

If you're planting trees that will provide shade in 5 years, that will change the thermal load and your ac may not run enough to remove humidity. Same thing if you need to remove trees or other features.

Like any job there's people who plug numbers in to a table and get an output and there's people who understand how that table works, it's deficiencies and how to compensate for that. If you can find that second type of HVAC tech they would be ideal to advise you.
And yet world + dog manages fine with a lot less complexity in the Rust, Php, Python, Javscript, Ruby, C++, docker, etc. communities. They all have tools for publishing packages and using them is straightforward and easy.

JCenter managed to work around some of the maven limitations and make the process similarly usable (but you need their gradle or maven plugin). And of course they were allowed to sync packages to maven central. I've done this. It works and was very easy to setup.

So, Sonatype can do better and they should consider doing so. Unless they look forward to manually approving gazillions of requests from stranded JCenter users in the next weeks. Maybe business is that good that they don't care about the overhead. Or alternatively, JFRog's move has prompted them to reconsider whether they want to keep on doing this at all. They are a for profit company after all and they must be similarly affected by big cloud providers putting up their own repositories.

In any case, their process is expensive and convoluted; it always was. It suffers from them having had no competition for being gatekeepers for maven central. There are multiple alternate ways of verifying identity and ownership that don't involve manual approvals, keypairs, etc. It's what everybody else does. Including JCenter and whatever they did seems to have been acceptable to Apache (who own and run maven central).
Due to regulatory restrictions? That sucks if true. GameStop wasn't even part of this other than a target. They didn't instigate anything.
I also interviewed with the talent woman, who gave me the baseball team analogy and that fact they love to fire people. A little off-putting for a candidate to hear, no?

This makes it useless for getting a confession to a crime with no corroborating evidence. However, if you have a method of independently verifying the information you get, you can get useful information.

Note: I oppose torture, but effectiveness is orthogonal to my opposition. Something can be effective and still evil.

Yes, truly without having first being British colonies, the United States, India and Ireland would have been unable to stand on their own feet and peaceful transitions they were too. Quite right!
Genuine question: If you were running a country (rather than being a bright kid, or the parent of bright kids as I'd imagine most of us here are or were) would you prioritise the bright kids at the expense of those lower down the bell curve? If so why?

Sorry if i sounded offensive, but while i remember your last book, i have no idea that previous ones exist, and what success they had.

But mostly, I don't think there is anything wrong with capitalizing on your ability to write or your previous success, i just feel tricked when reading 'story of x' and i found an attached 'i will also teach you x for money' that i did not expect

Very good point, that is a very big difference, and I hereby withdraw my support for this app.
Education: I graduated in 2001 from an Ivy League university. It cost $32K a year as far as I remember. The same thing costs $50K or so now? That's a pretty astounding increase in such a short time.

An increase of 56% in 14 years is only 3.2% per year. Sure, that's more than the 2.0% average inflation rate, but I wouldn't say that it's an astounding increase.
That is the point of the article.

The article is a list of places that are not ghost cities, even though they have been described as such by idiots in the press.

Sound great. Many Trello users (including me) are dreaming about this. However I was quite confused while using your app and several times just thought it doesn't work. Here's what I did:

1. Opened the site on Android's Chrome and signed in.

2. Clicked the "create/open a board" button, but nothing happened.

3. Opened the site on Windows Chrome - couldn't sign in util I closed the site on my mobile.

4. After clicking the "create/open a board" button, I expected to be taken to the freshly created board and was surprised that I had to click the "+" to create it. I suggest separating the create and open actions.

5. After clicking the "+" I expected (yeah, again :) to be taken to the board. I suggest removing this additional click and creating some animated indicator that the board is being created becuase it takes few seconds and I wasn't sure what is happening. The same applies later when I use the "Boards" link to switch between the boards. As the modal doesn't close after clicking one the "Boards" there's no visual feedback that anything happened.

Generally speaking there's a lot of room for UX improvement. I understand that you've created that app for yourself, but for a first time user a lot of things isn't as clear as for you. Some more observations:

1. Provide some tooltips. It took me few seconds too much to figure out that All/Incomplete/Complete are filters not a bulk actions buttons.

2. Why there's "Delete mode" instead of delete buttons?

3. I think that the task should be automatically moved to "Doing" if I start working on one of the subtasks.

4. The most important part When I changed the time settings and clicked the provided "Refresh" link, all previously entered tasks disappeared (but the boards remained).

Hope you'll find it useful. In case you'll continue developing the project, please consider IFTTT an Zapier integrations.
Well, after decades of Comcast, Lockheed, .. (and hundreds of other companies I don't much like) lobbying in Washington, at least this one is slightly better (read: more likely to lobby for things I personally agree with)

This is not a problem solved by memristors. The more memory you have, the more addressing and multiplexing you need to address it. The delay in a multiplexer grows logarithmically with the number of inputs. With a cache, it is even worse, because you have to address it by the real address, not the address in cache. So there will always be a hierarchy of speeds, unless you can figure out a completely different way to design a multiplexer.

In the best case scenario, memristors give us TBs of NVRAM.
"So in order to extract the valuable staff from a company it's necessary to destroy that thing so the staff can be reallocated profitably."

I wonder how often this actually works. In most cases where I've seen this (or heard of it happening first hand from people I know) the vast majority of the people you'd want to keep were out the door of the new place pretty close to as soon as possible (meaning, as soon as the contracts allow, or the golden handcuffs are mostly off, or whatever is relevant to the specific situation).

On the inside there tends to be a pretty predictable path: New management tells everyone nothing will change materially, everything inevitably changes very quickly, people get disgruntled and take off for other opportunities (at a quickly accelerating pace as the old guard sees all their former colleagues from the old place leaving the new).
"Not sure why I keep reading this over and over."

>We have absolutely no idea whether the vote counts in the US are authentic.

We never have. The only way to know would be to personally verify the voter's driver's license, watch them vote and submit their ballot, count their ballot, and repeat for every single voter in the United States. Since this will never, ever happen, one could always make vague claims about authenticity. But without concrete evidence of fraud, it doesn't matter.
