We're building robots for the next frontier of farming, and re-thinking the 20th-century tractor from the ground up. One of the many cool things we're building is a robust stereo camera that can handle the diverse and demanding needs of farming in the real world. If this and the following excite you, please apply!

- Experience with linux, embedded C/C++, CUDA, linux kernel modules, CMOS image arrays
- Demonstrated portfolio of work with NVIDIA Jetson TX2 or Xavier products
- We're backed by Yamaha and Kubota, but we're based in a barn on a farm and we love building things.

Let me google that for you.

Oh my, what's that, the first link? And subsequent links from different health authorities? Oh my, what a difficult google search that was... Seriously, don't be lazy. That's bad for your health too.
I mean, there is a wide range of products here. If we're comparing anecdotes, I have a personal MBA with a TN panel with less than 1080p screen, and crappy built-in webcam. But it is not fair to compare it to another laptop I use which was designed and manufactured later.

Keep in mind that battery life is not just about hw, and requires careful tuning of the OS. However, the OP is talking about running linux on it, so the batt life will definitely NOT be as good as running MacOS.
In the mainland US, houses right on the shore that are likely subject to storm surge are covered by some kind of government program since private insurance won't touch them. I have forgotten the details, unfortunately.
By permanent battery I mean a battery that can supply current indefinitely without needing to be charged.

The second law is meaningless. It only applies to 'isolated systems' which do not exist in reality.

"Truly isolated systems cannot exist in nature, other than possibly the universe itself, and they are thus hypothetical concepts only."
These days people vastly overestimate the risk of second-hand smoke. Based on the numbers in this article living with a smoker is equivalent to smoking a pack of cigarettes every two years. i.e. not much.

Second-hand smoke does have some health consequences -- for instance poor air quality is strongly linked to childhood asthma. It's also certainly considered a nuisance by most people.

Anyway, I'm not surprised at all that living in a polluted city would expose you to far more danger than a smoker at home. 30x sounds fairly reasonable.
It's a logical choice. Switzerland is where ISO, IEC, and ITU among other international standards organizations are located.

Isn't that the job of brew or whatever package manager you're using on apple?
And now there is BitCoin.
Because the article does not reflect the latest status of this story, here is an update: The bank has now successfully filed a complaint against the withdrawal of the license and is now again a bank, although under supervision:

"In the first instance, the Administrative Court temporarily suspended the immediate effectiveness of the European Central Bank's (ECB's) withdrawal of the former Meinl Bank's licence until a final decision has been reached [...]. The parent company of the bank, Far East, had lodged a complaint, according to the court ruling." Source: https://wien.orf.at/stories/3022615/ (Own translation, article is in German)
Mal. That's "bad", in the Latin.
Very interesting. I will give this a try. I've been a fan of Meteor for a while and have worked with both Ember and Angular. I usually end up longing for certain aspects of Meteor in both of those frameworks.
If I remember correctly, the swarthy eastern men were the bad humans.

Beyond that, it’s hard to argue that having an inherently evil race like the orcs doesn’t have racist undertones (particularly with the descriptions of the orcs mirroring racist caricatures). Sure, there were bad people in the other races as well (and not all of them swarthy!), but racism doesn’t claim that one race is without any bad people, it claims that certain races are inherently inferior (bad, weak willed, violent, etc.).

This doesn’t mean that Tolkein was or wasn’t a flaming racist, but it’s hard not to see the parallels in his work to actual racism.
What a mess. Starting at the title, there's no such thing as a patented discovery. (http://www.legalmatch.com/law-library/article/what-cant-be-p...)

Secondly, it really doesn't matter if "almost no" patented innovations get used, just as (to make an analogy) it doesn't matter if "almost no founders get VC funding" (!). There are over twenty million founders in the United States alone who would take $100k into their 'startup business' from a VC tomorrow. So what. "Almost no founders ever get VC funding" is a useless observation (even if it's true), and I make this analogy because here on HN we have a lot of experience with the cases where they do, and could rightfully see the sentence as a useless observation.

There is less experience with using the patent system here, but what matters, of course, is patented innovations that do or did require the patent system. And anyone who has any experience whatsoever with this subject knows about what kinds of cases this applies to.

I am not going to elaborate but I found the article basically totally worthless and clearly written by someone who has no information on the workings of the system. Clearly there is a systemic cost to having a patent system at all. But perhaps the reason the author had to write that no patented discoveries get used (which is a truism, since there is no such things as a patented discovery) is that the same is not true for innovations and inventions.
Was that even the case a couple of years ago though? I seem to remember that this was a valid attack at least a couple of years ago. Maybe it was on OSX or iOS devices?

Bitstamp needs a crisis PR team right now. They're blowing it. They've announced "we're down, we don't know what happened, we don't know when we will be back up, but everybody's assets are just fine. Trust us."

That's not how you do crisis PR. In this situation, a company has to overcommunicate.

Their CEO should have called a press conference for noon in London. All the financial press would show up. They should be announcing "We've been attacked. All customer funds should be intact, but we're shutting down temporarily for a snap audit. We've brought in outside auditors. We've notified the Metropolitan Police (Scotland Yard). Here are their representatives and you can question them. We will have another press conference in 24 hours".

Now people will be asking hard questions, such as "Is Bitstamp really in London or are they really in Slovenia", and "Why is the CEO on a plane for Vegas?" (Going to CES, yes, but in this situation, he needs to get back to the office.)
This isn't useful without knowing the same numbers for 100+ years ago. Lincoln filed a patent on a mechanism to lift a boat over shoals and obstacles, which almost certainly wouldn't have worked and was never used.

If almost no patented inventions were used in the 1800s then it's hard to use that as a metric for determining if the patent system has gotten worse.
Probably being pedantic, but it's speculating rather than cybersquatting, IMO. Cybersquatting is grubby, but I think domain speculation is an interesting debate worth having.
I find that, for the first few seconds or minutes after waking up, I'm not even capable of rationalising that I'd rather get up and deal with the consequences of being tired. This is far longer than the time it actually takes me to fall back asleep.
Yeah, I moved from suburban Boston to Silicon Valley and was surprised to see that U-turns were routine and accepted. In Massachusetts, we generally just didn't do them, because the roads weren't suitable. Just try making a U-turn on, say, Rt. 225 in Carlisle: the road isn't wide enough. And you can forget about it in downtown Boston itself, because most of the streets are one-way. Where I grew up, the accepted way of turning around was to turn into some residential development and make a 3-point turn, or just go around the block until you found a street going the opposite direction.
Well, Mr. Apotheker, formerly SAP, formerly HP is available.

This is precisely why L and R are hard to distinguish for Asians, or why Americans are confused by the Korean distinction of more than 2 phonemes in the D to T spectrum and G to K.
Depends on what you mean by suburbia. Most of Palo Alto, Menlo Park, etc are what I'd think of as "dense suburban". It's generally walkable to restaurants & shopping.
No, Apple is not the smaller company here. There is no reasonable measure by which you could say Google, a company with one monetarily successful product and a smaller market cap, is bigger than Apple, the dominant consumer technology company of our age.

EDIT: I don't normally respond to downvotes, but I find it odd that at least three people have disagreed without anyone explaining how this very factual comment is wrong. If there's something factually or logically wrong in my comment, we would all be better off if you'd explain the truth rather than (or as well as) downvote.
The WOW dungeons are instanced but the worlds aren't - in WOTLK there used to be a major problem with the new World Battleground (Wintergrasp) where hundreds of players would be playing in it at once and the entire zone would become unusable. Eventually they fixed that by instancing it.
Still, I find it hard to fathom why the iPad only has 256MB of RAM, for example -- the cost difference between 256 and 512 MB of RAM is very small. More RAM will consume marginally more power, but that doesn't seem a convincing reason either.

Do people really spend their time making sites like these for attention? We get it, you're good at using Photoshop and maybe CSS. These sites are useless, why would anyone waste their time making them?

> Then why not go directly to reddit.com for your search.

You’ve clearly never tried to use the reddit search. It is almost guaranteed NOT to give you meaningful results.

The benefit of using a search engine is knowing that it will give you the results you want, and not having to rely upon the sites’ own search implementations.

That obviously does not imply that one needs to use Google specifically, but I commonly will add “reddit” to a search query on any search engine to get the results I’m looking for.

On the other hand, Apple does spam me with an ad for Apple Music every couple of weeks. It happens when I launch the music app on my phone.
It's just that the article is mostly talking about AM radio, and they'd be dealing with stuff like 1920s carbon mics. So maybe modern mics could still be causing issues if they're chosen for a specific male voice type, but it's a stretch to apply 1920s data directly to the modern day. Everything's still a lot more accurate overall.
> [...] Two test particles with the same initial position and velocity, but different electric charges, can behave quite differently in the same electric field.

> One possible response is to say “oh, maybe our notion of force should really be something like F = mj, where j is the jerk, i.e., the third derivative of position”.

> I’ve never worked it out in detail, but wouldn’t be surprised if such an approach can be made to work.

It might not be exactly what he's looking for, but in Kaluza-Klein theory, charge is related to the velocity of the particle in an unseen 5th dimension. Through some miracle, if you work out general relativity with one dimension extra, the resulting theory bears a striking resemblance to general relativity in the usual four dimensions plus electromagnetism. If you then assume the 5th dimension is extremely small, which would explain why we can't see it, you get quantization of charge for free.

I never said anything like that about code signing (you may want to check out "in comments" section of the guidelines: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html).

Code signing allows software vendors to opt in to a reputation based scheme of authenticating software. There is nothing like that on Linux. There are similar systems within distros (Debian Developers, Arch TU etc.) but each one of them is for that one particular distro.

EV Code Signing certs require that the private key is stored on a hardware token (so it's harder to misuse). This is also something that's not utilized by packagers.

Code signing doesn't solve world hunger but it doesn't mean it's all evil.

You can always follow stories of famous prodigy.

Bad case - Ted Kaczynski (Unabomber)
Good case - Terrence Tao (Fields Medalist)

I especially suggest you check out Terrence Tao's because he writes a lot and a lot of people write about him. I would consider him a success story as he is super intelligent, smart, and clearly grew up fine. However, I remember he warned prospective parents to "not do it".

Link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terence_Tao Quote: "At the age of two, during a family gathering, Tao attempted to teach a 5-year-old child mathematics and English."

Alternatively, free market theory suggests that the reason there is no dialect of Lisp as popular as less expressive languages is that expressiveness is not a trait that increases fitness, or even might decrease it.

(for the record, I like Lisp)
Has TOS-like set of rules been ever proven valid / enforceable? It seems to me like they are just a wish list / guidelines for not registered users. It's a different thing when you actually make users accept those terms during registration of course - then both parties know the rules. But for anonymous visitor? The service provides the content without / before showing the rules. IMHO that means any "don't use robots" rules are not enforceable at all.

I don't mean to imply that robots.txt should not be respected though (it should if you're a whitehat) - just that it's legal to disregard it if you don't explicitly accept the terms.
The further down this future we travel, the less I want to do with technology. I am becoming a Luddite.

None of this crappy IOT stuff will enter my home.
Could not agree more. For a product company, having software engineers with diverse backgrounds can be a lot more valuable than having only super strong CS theorists (but you should have them of course). As long as the engineers are intelligent, passionate and productive, diverse backgrounds can only be a good thing.
Now this is probably different for research oriented careers, but most of us are building products for customers in some form or another.

It's an act of extraordinary hubris to view the global ecosystem through the lens of human entertainment. If there is one lesson we should learn from the last 100 years it's that our species understands very little about the complexity and healthy functioning of ecosystem upon which we depend.

> I am more financially comfortable than ever

Work part-time? I get 1-2 days off per week for projects (and house stuff) then in the evenings/weekends I actually have time and energy for playing with my child.

Plus, it's better for the environment than more work, more consumption.
The usual argument regarding the stock market crash is that even if it's coming, it's hard to predict when, and it's great investment long term even if it crashes temporarily.

At this point I think it just depends on what the central banks want, as they took control over stock market prices with the low interest rates.
With the passage of Prop 47 this past year, simple drug possession has been reduced from a felony to a misdemeanor in California (among other things), so the state's sentencing guidelines for LSD possession may be further reduced.

Yes, hiring is supposed to be “ableist.” I don’t want to work with or hire mentally limited people who couldn’t write a function in Notepad.
People need to know how to connect to a system or service. Once it becomes large enough to be the target of censorship the technologies used are relatively moot. This is much easier with the financial system since the on ramps are so tightly controlled. Crypto currency has not helped with this.
These are valid points and good counterpoints to what the article presents.
Now you just need to figure out how they made it 1000 years ago and the million is yours!
The biggest consistent problem mine has is the display panel burns out LEDs in a matter of weeks. Yes, burning out LEDs. If I put in a new panel (which thankfully is fairly easy, just a ribbon cable and a couple screws) it works for a few weeks, then the LEDs start to burn out again. So it becomes a guessing game of whether you're going to get water, crushed ice, or cubed ice.

There is basically no warranty on replacement parts. We stopped replacing that panel, and now we just play the guessing game. Fortunately the fridge does remain functional as a cold box, at least. There are a few other problems, like accumulating ice in the tray at the bottom, but this is not really a Samsung-specific problem, lots of fridges develop this issue.
I'm old enough to remember when hackers were unhappy about the rising usage of your definition of "hacker", a pop-culture misunderstanding which did not rise from hacker culture itself...
They did. You can also order them via Curb. Yellow cabs in NYC are often much less expensive than Uber. A recent trip I took via cab cost $29 plus tip. Uber wanted $76 plus tip for the same trip. It wasn't raining and there was no major event going on I was aware of. I hailed a cab in under a minute.
> Also, while I'm generally a fan of C#, I think it was somewhat of a poor choice for games.

What do you think would be better? C++ is too verbose and full of footguns, and python and javascript are dynamically typed (which is imo bad for learning, because the error messages happen at runtime instead of compile time). I'm a big fan of rust, but even using the Bevy game engine has occasionally reminded me that I appreciate just letting the garbage collector worry about memory management.

(The issues with the garbage collector have mostly been resolved at this point, now that they've implemented incremental GC.)
Except then they would destroy their Google search rankings ;P Which is the exact reason you can access it through Google.
Hey there! I agree with the misuses but I don't think the reasons stated are the right ones.

For instance, the fault-tolerance abilities of those frameworks is really important and it isn't mentioned, in some cases that may even offset the speed differences.

The data growth you mention is also a relevant factor which is missing, in your case you have an argument against a tool that helps you scale, that's the right mindset because you're evaluating the use of such tool over time not on a single situation.

As for the scaling if you go as low as 1k sure, Hadoop becomes useless but what if you had to scale from 500 machines to 100? if you bought a supercomputer that costs millions and three months later you're no longer using it then "scaling down" would be a great advantage.

So in short I like the "cons" of the original and I agree with them but there are "pros" that should also be considered.
Beautiful! Thank you for the memory. I had read it long ago, and forgotten.
Moderation in all things including moderation excluding ricin, botulinum, radioactive polonium and militant extremism.
It should just fine. Webstorm has a hunger for memory but since you got 8gb with this laptop it will be fine.
> Scott published his own identity. That was his choice. Do you disagree with that?

No, he quite clearly was trying to keep the association between the psychiatry real identity and Scott Alexander. There would be no fucking discussion here if Scott intentionally meant to reveal his identity.

>Is there some unwritten rule on the internet that you are anonymous as long as it's kinda a little bit difficult to figure it out?

Yes, there is a reason it’s gotten its own term. And this is why many sites (like Reddit) have very explicit anti-doxxing rules.

No, I'm saying he never published his name intentionally. There were clues in the past (he published the same thing twice, and his pen name is close to his real name), but he never published it.

Could you provide a source if you're going to keep saying the same incorrect information?
I saw some of these people last lunar new year in KLM, just performing on the street in front of a pretty large (spontaneous) crowd.

The acrobatics were really impressive. The performers looked like young teenagers who were having much more fun than I did at their age. Looked pretty dangerous though!
I've heard this dream a few times, and have had it myself. Hazardous waste disposal and storage. This is the big kicker for any research project I might want to do.

Every other expenses after getting that set up is trivial (in comparison) for an individual researcher, though national lab style shared analytical equipment is nice. That can come later though...

It's really hard. It's much simpler to set up a machine shop or similar, but then it's just a new hackerspace that there are good models for already.
