Both of those are available on M1. Virtualization was even demoed in the keynote discussing the switch to ARM.
Don't forget adding some blinking lights or beeps to drive "engagement" in case the user doesn't engage with the bowl for more than a couple hours.
There's also the fundamental question of whether or not the expert is actually an expert. It sounds like in the unpleasant case you mention, maybe there wasn't so much expertise there.

I think you're right that having skin in the game is critical. It's important to have real accountability, so if there's painful design flaws, the expert feels it.

But it's easy to think it should have been done differently and better when you don't have the perspective of the designer. I still vividly recall being a junior engineer and thinking the design decisions made by the "expert" were ridiculous, and talking with the expert, and finding out I didn't know everything and I was wrong. Thank goodness he was patient.
It depends on your needs I guess. Not all API can be handled by just a few classes. If your plan is to maake a microservice that expose a single value, yes spring boot is likely overkill. But when you have complex models with runtime configuration and profiles and so on... Maybe we need to specify what we are really talking about when we say API. For some it just means a partial implementation of REST.
> I do however not, in any way, hope that "big tech" buries a news house.

I'm by no way a fan of big tech but NYT has diverged quite sensibly from being a "news house" in the last few years.
Dictionary in Python is an unordered collection of data values, used to store data values like a map, which unlike other Data Types that hold only single value as an element, Dictionary holds key:value pair. Key value is provided in the dictionary to make it more optimized.

>including wanting to blacklist anyone who contributed to the extension

I think you refer to https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26722528, if so it is more about giving them the same treatment that they give others. If anything it is hypocritical to say that the extension is fine but giving them the same treatment is not.

>and wanting to see everyone with progressive politics purged from free software entirely

This is... not true. RMS himself has progressive politics. A progressive can still reject insanity caused by other progressives.

>RMS supporters want to have Molly de Blanc arrested for simply writing a petition[0] to begin with.

Just a few corrections:

- It is not RMS supporters, it is a specific timecube-like conspiracy theorist that has been known to debian for a few years now.

- This article is more about the plainly false libel in appendix that molly knew about but has refused to correct.
Yep, shifting the terms reframes the issues. Even library of alexandria sounds a bit biased toward the web and similar things. The fundamental thing is the decentralized packet switched network that lets any node talk to any other node where anyone can build new applications on it.

(But sadly a lot of people aren't directly on the internet anymore, and have only indirect access via a IPv4 NAPT gateway).
Slight hijacking:

I have a DSLR and have always liked photography (the taking photos part), but I've never been interested enough to get into post-processing of images.

> Colorlab's neural network can even import a reference image, analyze and train on it, and then apply its inferred style to footage.

This is pretty much what I want, but doesn't have to be industry quality. Is there any CLI/API batchable tool with sane defaults that preferably costs less than $49/month?
"He is against taking GPLed code, modifying it, compiling it, and then distributing the binary without distributing your modifications."

Yes.
Do you think it's really that common? I'd expect most Facebookers to at least be able to find third party websites through Google search.
> You mean to tell me that after the horrors of slavery finally ceased, it was the slaveholders that got reparations?

How would you have done things differently? The slave holders were powerful people. Even the Church of England apparently owned slaves. Compromise is a part of life. Yes, even difficult compromises like these...
Continuous integration happens on very commit. You have to physically commit your changes to source control, in which case your CI system picks it up.

Continuous testing happens on every save. You safe a file, it gets synced with another machine, the build happens there. If the build succeeds, tests run and you get immediate feedback on whether you broke anything.
Maybe you were extremely unlucky or mostly in the unusual situations, but people ARE mostly good, for me and other I know.

Also, think about this: if people were mostly bad and that would mean they were getting worse and worse every next generation (because all the good ones were 'eaten' by the bad ones), how it'd have been right now? I think our world isn't THAT horrible!
I think it's pretty obvious that he does only have one functional hand. Your joke is in bad taste.
This argument doesn't fly because you are making "well-meaning" out to be more ambiguous and subject to disagreement than it actually is. All of us exercise judgment every day about well-meaningness when we excuse people for bumping into us, saying something they didn't intend, misunderstanding an unfamiliar rule or custom. It's what we do without thinking twice.

You though, like many, many, others, are getting caught up in the subjective nature of exercising judgment and would like to see a list of necessary and sufficient conditions that is followed logically and to a t, something like a mathematics that has right and wrong and no in between. Unfortunately these things don't exist. If you look at how government and academia played out we have a judiciary systems and admissions systems that, yeah, have a few well-meaning people exercising judgment about slew of important topics that affect lots of people. It's either that or anarchy.

There is subjectivity about a lot if concepts, laws, and institutions we don't have a choice but to share. The presence of subjectivity is not grounds for eliminating that institution.
It's only negative if you want to read it that way.
Not sure if this is what the OP was getting at, but typing 'gitk' in my OSX terminal nets me "segmentation fault" and has for some time.
I'll be sure to give it a thorough testing. Thanks for your work.
We have many "private sector currencies" right now. Most people don't keep their assets in cash. If I buy any hard asset it is a currency -- not as directly liquid as cash since we don't have laws in place requiring a store to take my fine art in exchange for groceries.

As far as online currency, Facebook has the best chance to establish this: http://www.facebook.com/credits/
During the handling of an incident, the last thing you want to think twice about is timezones, so it is understandable for Discord who started in PT to just use PT universally. (Eventually, or perhaps already, it will just become a weird quirk of history.)
No. I'm typing or trying to type and it becomes unresponsive. Can't even toggle the caps and num lock LEDs on the keyboard.
I'm gonna teach my future kids how to use a word processor, then they will know something no one else does.

Welcome to the neighborhood! :)
There is no winning with you... Of course it cannot be too powerful, because then nationalists would scream bloody murder and refuse to have anything to do with it.

The WHO is a forum to coordinate strategy and exchange information. Obviously, this requires a minimum of good faith, which seems to be difficult for some countries (yes, particularly dictatorships). But even then, it is better to have them within, collaborating on their terms, than to leave them outside, in which case it would be even harder to get any information out of them.

So yes, China will lie, which will make life worse for epidemiologists and governments across the globe, but not as worse as it could be with China being entirely uncooperative.

It is not the world police, and it won’t come anywhere and do anything against the local government’s wishes. Otherwise the screams world be even louder, and justifiably so.
I’m not sure you can compare the two, “why are you encrypting your data/communication” is very different then “why are you not sharing the early virus samples”
I have fond memories of MySpace but I feel it was the experience of being on a happier and friendlier Web at the time. I don't think cloning it technologically is going to do anything to bring that culture back.
The domestic narrative in China is that the virus is of foreign origin, with the CCP press strongly suggesting that it's of US origin - eg:[1].

The truth probably is that they know it originated (from animals) in China, and don't want the WHO to officially reach that conclusion. That's not particularly damaging to most countries, but in a communist country with tightly controlled information flow, the citizenry isn't shown a government making mistakes.

Hmm, as far as I understand the math, your palette being pure colors shouldn’t really matter if the display calibration were perfect. Which I guess is an unrealistic expectation. :)
> 2 billion lab rats

Agreed with what you said, but that's a very inflated figure FB wants us to believe. Most people I know have 2 or more accounts, also all those profiles of dead people, companies manage other fake accounts for promotion, and there are spam actors that run huge amounts of fake profiles. So there might be around 100 million rat labs or way less.
US also praises Saudi and Israeli rule of law and democratic institutions.

North Korea seems a more trustworthy source of news than US nowdays.
I assume because Google Maps and Apple Maps are good enough in the US, and Americans have less of an objection to using products from big American tech companies.
tip top cant keep getting away with it
your view is a bit dramatic but probably closer to reality than anything else I have read in this thread. The so called A-players taking B and C outcomes also gradually increase their power and influence in the infrastructure of what the net economy has become because they are able to win in almost every cycle. The hipsters, usually only win once and then fade away from fame ;-)
I am not up on this but in XML world I would have used XPath. I see there are both JsonPath and JsonQuery gems that seem to be geared for this kind of stuff.
That isn't going to matter, those laws are only good inside the US.
Why bother?

I'm using one of THE worst browsers out, called the Blackberry Browser. Yet HN is one of the few websites that renders just as well as my updated ubuntu machine running newest firefox.
As a bilingual speaker with a love for linguistics, this thought often crosses my mind. The broader question is, when does a foreign language stop sounding foreign?

I taught myself many languages and I can definitely recognize a point where I no longer feel like I'm just making sounds, but speaking actual words. It is true in the other direction as well when it comes to listening. It doesn't take years of study or anything remotely close to fluency to cross that bridge. For me, I think it takes two months of immersion for a foreign language to no longer sound foreign. I think unfamiliarity with a particular language's set of pitch, volume and cadence is what makes a language sounds foreign. Once you're familiar with them, it no longer sounds foreign. I may not know the words, but I'm more familiar and comfortable with the cadence, intonation, sound library, pitch, volume, etc of that language.

For example, every language has a particular native pitch. And if you're used to one language, this pitch change might strike you as jarring when hearing a foreign language. For example, my Japanese voice is deeper than my English voice and my Cambodian voice is higher than both of them. When speaking Swedish, my voice drops very deep compared to English.

Because of my meta-awareness of this phenomenon, I can actually "switch" my brain off of English and hear what English sounds like to foreigners.
It does have effects on the semantics: without TCO, simple recursion will blow the stack and is therefore a very sketchy technique (few if any specs describe the minimum size of the stack).
When I mean leader I mean leader. 45th potus is not. He's just a guy in power, a systemic incident if you will, but he has no understanding of what populations need. A leader has that.
The path to the current share price is littered with the bodies of past shorts....
> Most wouldn't pay the $1 for WhatsApp. That shows you how little value these services actually provide

Most people don’t pay for air, therefore those people would be happy if their access to air was removed?
Because this completely breaks mailing lists.

For example, I am subscribed to my town’s unofficial mailing list, which has tens of thousands of people, dozens of messages per day, and no budget. The mailing lists are also very popular with open source - LKML being most famous example.

And the worst thing, the spammers will not be affected as much. They’d just rent infected windows machines and do the calculations there.
What happens if I’m talking while I’m typing?
There’s money to be made in solving climate problems.

From their site:
“ Mitigation is working on the causes of the climate crisis through either emissions reduction or drawdown of existing greenhouse gases from the atmosphere. Adaptation is working on the consequences of the climate crisis, such as increased risk of crop failure.”

and

“ The USV Climate Fund is a straight-up venture fund. We believe that decarbonizing the economy and dealing with past emissions (and their consequences), offers many opportunities for building important new companies that can produce venture type returns. The transformation of all aspects of the physical world over the coming decades will be on par with the changes brought about by digital technology.”

So they’re betting the problem space is big enough and solutions will be in high demand.
It is meaningful, because a large part of crypto culture seems to be based around hand-waving and selling you an underdog no-big-government empower-the-people story
That's a great utility and also very nice they implemented it so fast! Code looks clean and concise.
I'm using Nvidia Broadcast mainly for this reason so that I can stream to my two subscribers without my mechanical keyboard ruining the experience :)
This is a great point. We shouldn't ignore other efficiencies though. When used on the building envelope, light energy that would otherwise heat the building is converted into electricity instead. Assuming a reasonable efficiency for the conductors and inverters, this reduces the overall building demand. Even small reductions in demand can have huge price benefits for wholesale electricity buyers during expensive summer months (i.e. large commercial buildings). Hence, even if these panels are less efficient than opaque panels (and really how could they not be?) there may be other ways they can make sense from both energy savings and cost perspectives.
Not sure what you mean by that. There's no benefit to explicitly denying the app permissions -- declining the app's pre-permissions dialog just means it never requests the permissions at all.
It wasn't my intention to be pouty, I just remarked on what happened.

I'm in the process of growing it, and its users find it extremely useful so far, after they get past the "why can't I just email them?" stage and see that this is much faster.

If anything, Facebook's move provides me with a clear way to position the product, rather than have to say "it's a bit easier than email".
In India, usually people who could not land a plum corporate job would resort to teaching (UG level) and they are entrusted with the job of shaping the next batch of engineers/artists. Also, teaching as a job is not greatly rewarding financially, hence it is not a popular choice. One could only imagine the outcome.

To state the facts, a school teacher teaching 4/5th grade kids would hardly be given a $150 salary. In second tier cities, it's even lesser.

I would say, not just this, but there is also a huge difference in the line of thought and a tendency to resign oneself to fate, among Indians. That is almost always part of the upbringing. The ones landing up as teachers would resign to their fates and stop (and resist vehemently) any attempt to keep oneself up-to-date or develop their skills.

And the sad part is, even the interested ones are forcibly turned into indifferent ones, due to various socio-cultural changes presently seen in the economically shining nation.

I've always felt that shutter is overkill for what I do 99% of the time: Take a screenshot of my whole desktop or some part of it and save it as png.
What I realy would like to see implemented is something like this:

http://layersapp.com/ From the description: Layers captures every window, every palette, every menu, every menu and status bar icon, every icon on the Desktop, and even the Dock and the Desktop background for each of your connected displays will be saved as a separate, editable layer in the resulting Photoshop image file.

It would make the capture far easier, just capture the whole screen, edit, move the windows, delete compromising top-secret stuff, then save.
>I assure you that white people file discrimination lawsuits too.

// Out of interest have you a reference to a white person winning a race discrimination case, preferably with regard to being hired?

Also why should "an applicant who had 'President of African-American Student Union' on their resume because it belies their race?"? Surely a person of any race can be president of the African-American SU, or are they allowed to be racists?
Getting no love on HN does not mean you or the product is not good. Being sad and pouty about it might. Move on, make it so big and good that someone else posts it on HN the next time instead of you doing it.
Yes, this is possible. I'd argue though that if 2 instances of life exist (them and us), n instances must exist, (and thus some must use radio waves) because it clearly demonstrates humanity wasn't a freak septillion-to-one occurrence that shouldn't have happened.
Of course, the Fermi Paradox does make it much easier to explain the origins of life on Earth. Many people object to the high improbability of life just appearing on Earth, and use that to justify various deity-based explanations. But if we use the Fermi Paradox as confirmation that life really is rare, then the high improbability of it spontaneously arising on Earth, becomes a far higher probability that life arose spontaneously just once over billions of galaxies. Even if you just take the Milky Way, assuming our solar system is typical, you could say that we have maybe 5 bodies capable of hosting life (Venus, Earth, Mars, Europa, Titan), so each solar system gives 5 possibilities, multiplied by roughly 300 billion star systems = 1.5 trillion possible sites, ie we can increase the probability of spontaneous creation of life by a factor of 10^12.

Of course, if the Fermi Paradox is actually wrong because intergalactic critters communicate using a FTL technology that we haven't yet created, or because they are actively hiding themselves from us, or any of a multitude of alternative explanations, then it implies that life can arise far more readily than we might otherwise have predicted.
Whapee (http://whapee.com) as they bring back the old-school account free internet and keep privacy on location based services.
Wait, I'm not sure I understand: "the openness argument is that the code is open and it is" and "this does is limit their openness" -- what do you mean by that?

Anyway, my point is that you would not call Firefox an open source project if it was developed internally by Mozilla and just released code every major release. It's not that I don't think it's good that that they release the code, it's that they use "open" as an argument when it's only open when it benefits them -- and not a second before.
It is a bit funny that the fastest growing social network is in stealth mode. "Connect the Unconnected world around you"? Facebook for Microbes?
That is pretty useful.

Nitpick: a Cadillac CTS hardly has a "huge engine up front." In a head-on 85MPH crash (closing speed would make this similar to hitting a parked car at ~125MPH), what likely saved her was a lot of luck and wearing a seatbelt.
> Seriously I think these kinds of questions need un-asking rather than answering.

That’s equivalent to conceding that the concept cannot work and giving up. No matter your personal views on a particular issue, this is really just asking how to comply with legal obligations: governments don’t care if your system is broken by design and makes compliance hard, and that’ll deter most legitimate users.
why not? it's about ~9B in 2016, ~11 in 2017, ~19B in 2018 and ~10B in the first six months of 2019, with the last quarter being the largest in the past.

I still recommend Ruby as the first language because it has all of the features you want to know about as a newbie and at the same time there are very few quirks. The things you sacrifice are performance and memory efficiency. I have seen junior programmers picking up Ruby as be able to write production ready code in couple of weeks. I guess the learning curve is not as steep.
