Great News!!! As a long-time Delicious user, I'm glad to see that it will continue on. I'm looking forward to any enhancements, but hoping the core of the service does not change too much.
“We haven’t been tracking anyone,” Jobs said in a telephone interview with Mobilized on Wednesday. “The files they found on these phones, as we explained, it turned out were basically files we have built through anonymous, crowdsourced information that we collect from the tens of millions of iPhones out there.”
You know what I'd pay for? Enterprise sales office hours and online customer acquisition office hours. That would rock. Basically 15 minutes of an experts time over Skype. They'd have to really be an expert but I'd happily pay.
Yeah I suppose that makes sense with milling machines. When I read the OP's comment I was thinking he was referring to grinding machines.

I always wear my TIG gloves when operating grinders and was glad I do a while back when my hand made contact with the wheel: what would have been a nasty and painful gash ended up being a scuff mark on my glove.

But that raises another question: Why on earth would your hand be anywhere near the head of an operating milling machine?

EDIT: Thinking about this more, we might have different concepts of "glove." TIG gloves are thin, tight-fitting, and leather.

They also have a "gauntlet type" cut that extends up your forearms and over your sleeves. I don't think they'd be any more likely to catch a machine part than your skin would, and I think they'd actually reduce the chance that a sleeve gets caught.

OTOH, it makes sense that the thick, heavy fabric gloves that are used for MIG or stick would make your hands more clumsy and prone to getting caught in machines. I agree that those are probably pretty dangerous.

I wonder when bots will figure out that abc at [common domain name] dot [xyz] can be parsed. It would suck, but just wondering...
Here is a link to the actual competition: http://tunedit.org/challenge/VLNetChallenge
Simple scripting will solve some very inefficient patterns, such as retrieving a long list of values over the network, performing some operation on them in the client, and storing them back to Redis.

To completely close the gap, I'd want two more things:

1. Store multi-line scripts as Redis objects. Trying to cram a loop and several expressions into one line will not be easy to understand or maintain. I'd rather deal with the cluster consistency issues in the application than be limited to one-liners.

2. Ability to execute a script in a separate thread. If the script doesn't require isolation, execution shouldn't necessarily block other operations. Some scripts might take 250ms to run, which is too long to block the main thread.
Honestly, my guess is they will be disappointed by how little difference there is between a 100mbit internet connection and a 1gbit connection in practice.

And, yes, setting up a gigabit wireless network counts as a challenge, even for non-idiots.
"AVOS is a new Internet company, led by the founders of YouTube, Chad Hurley and Steve Chen. AVOS is located in San Mateo, California"

I'm surprised I hadn't heard of that company before. I thought these two were still working at YouTube. Are they?

"YouTube (…) which was acquired by Google 18 months later for $1.76B"

I was surprised of seeing that as well, since the price I have seen everywhere else was $1.65B. I guess they know that better than anyone else but why the difference?
Obligatory anti-Lidell-Hart comment:

He was an idiot. There is no such thing as "Blitzkrieg", just dumb luck and huge mistakes on the French's part.
Pilotlight | Moorestown, NJ (Philadelphia Area) | Full Time / Full stack Developer (mostly Python / Django) | ONSITE (some remote work possible)

Pilotlight is looking to add an experienced, full-time developer to our team. We are a small, boutique development shop located in Southern New Jersey (Philadelphia area) focused on building web applications for clients large and small. If you have experience with Python/Django or with similar MVC-Style frameworks (Rails, etc..) we would love to chat.

Well, the problem is that YouTube, similarly to Google and Facebook, is becoming a monopoly (a natural monopoly I'd say), which seems to be a general way of how Internet works, and we should, rather sooner or later, start to think about some regulations (YT is also the future TV and TV is regulated) to deal with cases like this one.
Agreed. I think many people would naturally recoil from "big brother government oversight" but see no issue using similar means to have people found and locked up for calling someone an unpleasant name on twitter.
Stallman, I remember that he used a Loongson computer
Outrageous claim(0)

Outrageous it may be, but is it true?
A different from a picture, since it may have been trademarked. At least in theory, a picture is free from copyright violation claims if it's been taken independently, but a trademark may be violated even if the logo was independently generated.

At least, that's my understanding of the relevant law (IANAL).
This is news to me and I have a problem with the term as it does not include citizens of Northern Ireland. Northern Ireland is part of The UK(Great Britain and NI), yet not part of Great Britain(England, Scotland and Wales) or Britain(England and Wales). The Irish, amongst others, do not refer to the islands as the British Isles due to the association with Britain.[1]

Sounds like you might not have been around back then. PHP was the thing you used because Cold Fusion Cost $50,000 per server to deploy.

Apart from that, it really was the best of its breed (compared to PHP, classic ASP, Perl CGI, or Java Servlets).
Unfortunately, the only way to get fairly nice looking fonts on Linux is to use a 4k display :-( Even with font hinting, the quality you are used to from OS X or even Windows isn't there, and most people that develop Linux don't seem to have developed sensitivity for font quality, so you should not expect any improvements. Any time I look at my Debian server, I have that strange unpleasant feeling of fonts being somehow off. Ubuntu/Mint are better, yet still nowhere near the clarity of OS X.

This is what he's talking about. He posts a "hey have you noticed apple software is buggier lately?" and loads (43, according to google news) sites post speculative articles about titled something like "have things started to go downhill for apple???" using him as a source.

Why are you hiding behind an anon account to post this?
Really? Lots of people regularly switching their detergent?
So when the power goes out or someone looses a hard drive, how easy is your bitcoin to transact?
It varies.

Not because some corporations are moral, but because happy workers are a good long-term strategy and many corporations are stuck with rolling short-term-ism. They reward the top tier on a three-ish year cycle, so executives only need to make the numbers go up for three years before exiting with a higher paying job and compensation via stock sales.

The US has a massive issue in general with rolling corporate pump & dump. The whole stock market basically encourages it. That's why we see things like customer retention strategies that actually reduce re-subscriptions and hurt the long term reputations remaining popular (because the short term matters more to executives than the long term, even if the company burns down after they leave).
Your point makes sweeping claims that "the entire incumbency" thought of DO as a Linode clone.

Can I see your survey results from 10 years ago, or is this an opinion formed by a Linode employee from a handful of conference conversations?
I thought it was weird, but I can't imagine a basis for not allowing that.

Even if it was someone's boss... they too get to talk / have an opinion... even if I think it is wrong. I've certainly worked for employers who I thought had some very wrong ideas, I still did my own thing voting wise.

Weather and other logistical issues (cost of labor) played large part in where Fedex located their hub. It's not simply something that you can solve by mathematics alone.

[1] Ditto for Walt Disney World in Florida as another example where in addition to weather and population proximity there was also the cost of land..
Amusingly, I actually rewatched this just last night. Brilliant movie.

Are you sure you're not the one that's spying on the wrongthinkers? ;) Just kidding.
I honestly think the article skims this point in an effort to focus on the bare necessary information to communicate this to relatively non-technical people.
I don't believe I've ever said "it's the same as a cold" or linked to anything saying that. Cite it if you can. I don't delete but I'll quote-tweet it to correct the record.

If you can't cite, as I suspect, what are you doing here?

Population density early tweet: https://twitter.com/BrendanEich/status/1259222845353103360?s... (worth a look at the linked thread).

Pop. density, latent immunity due to ancient CoVs (this seems to matter a lot in Asia), other particulars do not excuse the NYC and NY state record. Also you hear people claim Sweden has low density but that's not the case.

Your second paragraph shows you didn't read the comment from me to which you replied, in particular this part:

"NPIs don't much affect disease progression. Correlation is not causation but anti-correlation is a big problem for those arguing masks help:

What "The evidence is (and has been)" do you mean? Cite it. Use those famous hyperlinks we worked so hard to make useful back in the day at Netscape. Ignoring what I wrote and asserting your assumptions is not helpful.
Both iOS and Android use garbage collected memory. It's just that iOS uses simpler garbage collection in the form of ARC. KMM code runs fine on JVM right? If you start from JVM code, yeah it needs to be rewritten, but that's not the premise.
Sure, but anyone standing there for long enough to be noticed will eventually be asked to leave.
This is probably not what you're looking for, but I recently found this dump of Hungarian tech/gaming magazine scans dating back to the late 80's, and I've been looking for an excuse to share it further: https://retroujsag.com/
Probably a decent chunk of the perceptual issue you're seeing comes from their choice of font rendering library, which is noticeably "the IMGUI font rendering library", and looks amateurish. This is stb_truetype, which is a very primitive library, but is easy to install and incorporate. The other library is freetype+harfbuzz, which produces higher quality output, faster, and with lower memory. The cost of freetype is that installation is absurdly difficult, the maintainer is offensive, and the code is ancient, unreadable, and architecturally a disaster.

I don't think the chosen GUI library causes the other UI issues you perceive. The author probably hasn't put much time into learning visual design, and thus fell into whatever the UI library supported. But to produce a better one, the author would have had to do a lot more learning and thinking, which is independent of the library choice.
> So read the science. Listen to the science. But read up further, and make educated decisions. Don't just listen to "experts" blindly.

For most people, even educated people, they are more likely to hold correct beliefs by listening to experts blindly than investigating papers themselves. Sometimes experts are wrong. But experts are wrong way less often than laypeople. A culture of a bunch of inexpert youtubers reading papers and convincing people of medical advice is perilous.

The ICO scammer often markets the tokens as equity or money but they are gift cards to use the network
[Author of blog post here] YMMV may vary - what works for me and saves me time is not necessarily something that will work for others, so very much spot on observation about this being a reflection on a personal approach that helped me. It's by no means a universal mantra.
first one: The amount of liquid assets they have is probably based on the amount of liquidity they currently require. They would suddenly require more liquidity, which very likely would mean they would need to liquidate, from any initial condition. And this repeats every year.

2: if only a few people need to liquidate, it will increase supply and lower the values

3: don't pay 2% and what do you think they'll take? your freedom? that is arguably worth more than your holdings.

your criticism of my criticism doesn't even scratch it, much less negate it like your bias confirms.

And you missed the main counter you could have made.. which would be that middle class people could buy funds of the newly liquidated assets. It doesn't counter the point that it would hurt these businesses, but it would at least counter the protectionist alarmism. Sheesh, I have to do everything myself
TPP was cancer. Every rich nation in the world profited off of precisely the kind of IP theft which TPP aimed to punish. It was kicking away the ladder which the U.S. U.K. France, South Korea and others had climbed before anyone else could get up it.

Liberal economics reeks of colonialism. "As above so below, everything in its rightful place. Let mexico grow avocados and let india make t-shirts and let the chinese build semiconductors. Lets's put all these people in their rightful places and engineer foreign policy to make sure they stay there forever."
It seems for a lot of people in this thread one of the defining aspects of being a rockstar is to produce something that other programmers all use - most generally a language but also a ubiquitous library like JQuery that ends up defining the future direction of the language it is written for.

I suppose that one could argue by writing things for other programmers their productivity using your tools can be seen as an extension of yours - that without John Resig many people would have been less productive therefor he derives a little bit of productivity from each person who uses his library. But maybe it is just because these are the programmers you are most likely to be familiar with.
You’d probably call me a leftist although I don’t have any group that I would feel at home with. It is quite hard for me to find any idiot in my friends circles that would defend the soviets or sympathize with them. As somebody who studied philosophy and reads quite a lot I can assure you that the amount of left intellectuals who are still defending the SU is equally low — at least in Europe.

So what you are postulating here seems to be colored strongly by your own world view and where you live. Instead of offering us a interesting new perspective that would help leftists to leave their own bubbles, your comment seems to only show your own lack of experience in that area. You might have missed for example that “the left” is usually much more fractured and less uniform than the right: most things you could validly criticise have pretty certainly already been criticised by another left fraction or even within one fraction. So doing as if there was any unified opinion here says rather more about your own bias than anything of substance about the other side.

Many US observers often seem to paint a black and white picture of what is much more nuanced. E.g. saying that everybody who doesn’t support the silly ideas of your president is automatically on the side of the Russians certainly boldly outlines your views, but suffers from the significant disadvantage of not describing reality. Let me assure you: especially conservative Europeans are fed up with how the US acts on trade lately.
Basically that's because you can't bundle c libraries in a zip file like this, so effectively you can't actually use it for any of the reasons you might want to use it.

(.exe bundlers, by comparison, bind the shared library into the executable or with it)
Most people act differently in different contexts. (Do you tell your wife "Before I agree to take out the trash, I just want to make sure we're on the same page on what compensation for this will be?" Do you tell your investors "Shit, my investors are assholes. I'm getting reamed on this deal") It's not uncommon that different people will have different perspectives on whether someone is a nice guy or an asshole.
This happens a lot in topics that the HN community is interested in but not very knowledgeable in general. You can usually trust the top voted articles in programming and entrepeneurship because a lot of people here know about that. But, for example, in maths and music (I happen to know something about those) I see a lot of really bad articles and takes being upvoted.
I figured this out when I was teaching my nephew programming. I started him on Python. He got bored quickly because he really couldn't see the results of what he did and he really wanted to make simple games.

Javascript turned out to be much better for making simple games and doing simple puzzles.
I agree. But sometimes thought experiments can be useful in sussing out why we hold certain values. Torture I don't actually consider to be one of those that's particularly opaque, but asking "Why do I think this is wrong?" and looking at the edge cases is often an enlightening process. (And I've been reading a good bit of political philosophy lately trying to resolve some dissonance on other topics where I found my own views inconsistent.)
You’re in jest, but historically the sale, possession and use of coffee has been illegal in many countries.
So they knowingly committed multiple felonies and got fined 0.1% of their annual revenue? That sure will show them!

That would sting about as much as me getting a parking ticket. So somehow hacking a competitor is on the same level as parking on a wrong side of the street.

The US spends 2/3rds of a year in DST rather than Standard Time, so that would possibly imply there is no health difference or the health difference is actually weighted towards DST at this point.

Also, a problem with hour-wide timezones is that DST is closer to what "standard time" is supposed to be (when solar noon and observed noon most closely match) naturally on the western edges of the timezones. So any arguments over whether DST or Standard is "healthier" also likely have to take into account how much the population is weighted to one edge or the other.
Pretty sure I’ve read there will never be a cargo a380 because its max takeoff weight is low compared to its volume.
They apply to both documents _and_ web apps, and the behavior is standard across both. When I hit "Back" or Ctrl+F in a web-based chat application the result is the same as when I do those actions while browsing a news article, and that's a good thing.
The problem is that the industry has been sold a lie that a magical team of 10X Rockstar 1337 developers can make designing and maintaining large and complex systems easier. Of course, US companies would never purposefully reject qualified candidates in an effort to get more H1B visas either.
A required credit card to access a "free trial" of a product is a very widely used dark pattern.

It is always fair to ask for a refund in such situations.
That can be changed in a software update. Is this likely? probably not, however I can imagine scenarios (lets say a worm gets out) where it might "make sense"
i just got a flash of genius. what if instead of just up and down vote arrows, there were also left and right vote arrows, where each vote would move the post one pixel to the left/right (you would no longer be able to vote up/down). this would lead to awesome positioning wars, or even races to see which post could first cross the right edge of a 1080p monitor
Own impression, but might just be luck vs. me updating them. Youtube changes the obfuscation around periodically to discourage apps like these.
Thats a good one.
Google has been crawling since their inception.
It's interesting that Android is rediscovering the same lessons Windows learned. As Windows progressed, they exposed less things via API, realising that the user wants control of their experience. For instance, pinning items to the taskbar.

Devs call MS and whine "how can I make my installer pin the app to the taskbar" and the answer is "that's the user's space, so you're not allowed". Of course, without a sandbox or approved environment, applications can reverse engineer the system somehow. And if MS adds a mandatory sandbox/approval (WinRT) then it's "but it's not an open or fair platform; my machine is locked down; freedom etc.".

Sure, you might say "but I want" this app to violate the sandbox. But if that's remotely easy to accomplish, then all apps just request you to violate the sandbox (just like the tons of sites that used to have "click yes to install the ActiveX control when the scary warning pops up").
Ok.. but why? As far as I can see, you're just saying what people should do without giving any explanation of why.

While the Schrodinger equation is linear, that doesn't mean that the time evolution of various derived quantities are also linear. For example, the expectation value of position follows a nonlinear equation of motion even though the schrodinger equation is linear.

This is known as Ehrenfest's theorem:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ehrenfest_theorem

In other words, nonlinear time evolution is natural in quantum mechanics for quantities other than the wave function and does not require collapse.
I used to think that Trump was secretly a mastermind who put on a certain persona in public that was advantageous for him. But as time went on, I became more and more convinced that he just does not have the capacity for something like that.
I'm a little confused about what point the article is trying to make. I don't think that the many-core folks have ever said that they're building many-core because people want it; I've consistently heard that it's because of Moore's Law collapse, as admitted in the article.

If it were economical to produce faster uniprocessors instead, you can bet that chip companies would do it, because they'd make more money that way.
This is awesome. I had no idea it existed.
