Or you could reduce the barriers required for companies to go public/IPO.

What has changed over the last 20 years in the US is how much more expensive / difficult it has been for a company to go public. A lot of that is a result in 'consumer protections' that came into place after the .com bust and the financial crisis, but as with every short sighted government regulation, it has unintended consequences.
How do you know that the first certificate was not produced by the MitM?
Correct, the government should generally not hand out stimulus as free money. Forcing the company to issue new stock and sell it to the government at market rate achieves all of the positive effects of stimulus, while also eliminating the perverse incentive to operate with no safety margin in the hopes of a bailout.
i agree that nuclear can help reduce carbon emissions, but that doesn't mean that nuclear waste is less harmful to the planet than carbon emissions are. nuclear isn't any more sustainable than coal or fossil fuels.
>It'll be interesting to see if whoever replaces Ajit Pai holds a different view on public intercourse over the airwaves.

I think the word you mean is discourse not intercourse.
"Missing context"? So, it is true, but requires more nuance to properly understand? SMH.

What seems to bother many people is they perceive the social media "fact checking" as only going in one direction politically. This could be disproven if people could provide examples of left-leaning statements flagged by the "fact checkers."
There's no problem with your comment so please do not "improve" yourself based on the parent; they should, not you.

I wouldn't try, but Helemskii's Lectures And Exercises on Functional Analysis show all this in exquisite detail.

The Convenient Setting of Global Analysis (freely available as a PDF) makes extensive use of the categorical notions and methods.
Who is “them” though? The police officer in this video (which hasn’t been taken down anywhere, as far as I can tell) isn’t the record label.

Flameshot is awesome, and in my list of daily used tools. I especially like the color picker and annotation tools, which I abuse far too often.

Its in my list of awesome gplv3 tools.
Brainstorming and mapping out your ideas and concepts before diving in to code are very fundamental to an expert workflow. I would recommend getting a notebook with dots or gridlines for modeling out creative tasks, and getting a dry-erase board and some fine-tip dry-erase markers for quick drawing and task management.

For using the keyboard exclusively, I would recommend using the text editor Emacs which is very old (as old as linux?) and very stable, has keyboard actions for moving up and down by row, across by any number of characters, switching between buffers, and even has a built-in "undo tree" that you can walk back and forth to see code changes very easily.
They reintroduced Northwestern Wolves (Canis lupus occidentalis). Use to be Northern Rocky Mountain wolves (Canis lupus irremotus). The population originally to reseed Yellowstone was from Canada (Alberta). Also, I wouldn't quite put it as antiquity - the last confirmed wolf kill in Yellowstone was in 1926.

Oh, and I have no idea how significant the difference in subspecies is. Apparently they are both amongst the largest subspecies.
Stack-based languages like forth have a SOV (postfix) order.

An interesting property of postfix languages is that the order of evaluation of functions is identical to the order of the function names in the source code:

Functional (prefix, C)

f3(f1("") f2(""))

OO (infix, Java)

"".f1().f3("".f2())

Stack-based (postfix, Forth)

"" f1 "" f2 f3
Yeah OK wood/sheetrock houses then - I meant, traditional, not well insulated.
> Because most webapps do not need to be optimized for performance, but rather for ease of maintenance.

I don't see how this conflicts with asynchronous I/O unless you're limiting yourself to Twisted/Node.

> Asynchronous I/O is best suited for handling a large number of concurrent connections. However, in the majority of cases these connections are mostly idle, with bursts of activity occurring whenever a message arrives.

This is exactly how you write an Erlang application. Erlang supports asynchronous I/O.

Your viewpoint is accurate if you limit yourself to many of the mainstream languages that are simply terrible at concurrency, but I think this is only temporal. As more work goes onto web apps synchronous I/O simply isn't going to cut it (as many people running popular websites already know).
The problem is that iPad does not clear your private information even if you insist on doing so. It is possible to prevent tracking just by using simple technics and by following general rules.

I can sort of understand the outrage but I don't see the utility of it. Apps that are written for the App store don't have access to this data without the permission of the user. And the only way an app would be allowed access to a file outside the sandbox is if its jailbroken.

I'm not familiar with the in and outs of iOS LocationManager but it generally gives you the immediate coordinates at the time you request and nothing more. As for why the database of locations? It's entirely possible they are using it for QoS.

As for access to device backups. If someone has unauthorized control of your desktop computer you have bigger problems.
I originally filtered out the vehicles not available in the color, but it was confusing when vehicles popped in and out depending on color. If my vehicle isn't available in red, I want to know that.

As far as pagination goes, I'm with you. I'm still on the fence about whether or not to ditch it.
Comparison of Microsoft to Google and Yahoo is a bit silly based on the fundamental differences in the purpose of their landing pages - i.e. Bing.com : Bing

If you buy into the Apple v Microsoft meme then maybe that comparison is somewhat meaningful. Personally, I don't buy in given their primary organization around B2C and B2B respectively.

It's hardly as if any of this has an effect on sales - and to the degree it does, one would suspect that Microsoft's title would drive more traffic to their site than Apple's or Oracle's - again, Google and Yahoo don't really have a comparable business model.
It's a really great start and I have been thinking a lot about this problem as every year during ski season I pine for an AWD vehicle of some kind and start bouncing between car manufacturers sites. I search both visually but I also like to hit google for a specific feature like AWD or TDI etc and use that as a starting point. If you sprinkle in a few feature details - even if it's meta only for the search box - then I think it will become even more awesome. (And probably my starting point for all my car research)

Finally, I realize this is probably a first version but once I find a car I like you should make an effort to send me to the the manufacturer site or even a simple google qry that will find what I'm looking for.

I think your site is about 100 times more sticky than carwoo since right away I am looking for cars - if later I want dealers to compete for me that's great. I would seriously consider that you borrow their business model or that they borrow your interface idea.
I was expecting some casualties due to fraud from this rapid change in so many industries so I'm not too surprised at the content of this article. I work in near proximity to an anti-fraud team and the stuff I hear people get up to is incredibly elaborate. Some folks are small time criminals like the guy with a van in this story but others are quite large organized crime rings. The thing they all have in common is that they're almost always ahead.
Well, we were discussing the utility of such a test. I would assume that by the time we got to the point of utility, we would have agreed that the thing itself was valid. There's no point in discussing the utility of a thing that didn't work.
Yeah, I have tried to read that WiFi spec and I was kinda overwhelmed.
It's not my distro, I just find your argument against it heinous, especially given your initial objection was factually incorrect.
This concept of a ‘social contract’ is messed up. It’s a way of saying ‘I can only fully enjoy my ownership of this item if a central authority tells me I can’.

That’s just crazy, who in their right mind would want a world like that. Why do we need an authority figure to control enjoyment of a thing?
Yeah, it would steal a lot of DMA time, and would starve a CPU not executing code & accessing data in the Fast RAM.

But at least you can display pretty pictures without HAM fringing. :-)
Are ads on firestick a US only thing or have I been blind to not notice any ads in my firestick?
I am happy to entertain evidence on all sides of the sleep training debate, and I would love to know whether it is long-term harmful or beneficial. And to be clear, I’m actually not making a claim either way about harms around sleep training, only pointing out that there are tradeoffs in every decision, that it’s hard to really know whether sleep training is harmful in any particular circumstance, and that strangers shaming parents for choosing something they think is harmful without considering context is one of the most obnoxious parts of parenting.

That said, I’m aware of work showing that a poor attachment is harmful, you are making the leap from sleep training to poor attachment, and then claiming that, because I’m requesting evidence that is hard to provide, that I’m arguing in bad faith and not interested in the truth.

Your attitude in this post, as has been repeated ad nauseam elsewhere by many others in this thread, implies that if one doesn’t accept “common sense” explanations of harm and question what others consider obvious, that one must have already made up my mind. I have not, and I don’t consider common sense arguments very strong.

In your post, you are making assumptions about my beliefs, questioning my motives, implying that I’m requesting evidence merely as a dissembling technique, and putting words in my mouth. That is bad-faith arguing.
Thanks, I was actually pretty confused by this at first glance.

As a non-Apple-user I've never personally used the feature, but I still thought that stuff like Tap to Pay was a somewhat large selling point for the Apple Watch. So for a second I wondered if I had just been drastically misunderstanding how that worked for a long time and had somehow never actually checked/verified that iPhones/Watch could do that.
I was referred by my GP over a year ago for an adult ADHD diagnosis. I used the NHS Right To Choose so that I could use a private clinic, however even with them the wait has been a year and they're saying the earliest I'm going to be seen is October. My GP has contacted me to say there's a new service they're starting soon and that I've been referred there too, but they couldn't tell me how long the wait would be - basically they said to go with whichever one is available first.

If you can get a referral from your doctor, I would have a look at Right To Choose and go with someone private like Psychiatry UK as you shouldn't have to pay, the NHS will take the cost of that. (Also a note that paying them money doesn't get you seen any quicker, I've tried asking)
I think you're interpreting that 20% from the article incorrectly. It actually says:

I actually agree with you. Liberating people out of our current economic paradigm is probably the best thing we can do for the art world, as it frees people to work on their own stuff (including art) in their free time without any need for compensation.
I really want to avoid invoking any cliches to the effect of "youth is wasted on the young" here, but even though that's an unfair generalization, there's still a grain of truth to the sentiment: there are certain aspects of life which truly cannot be understood except by irrevocable passage of time. I hate to say it, but many of the insights that might help you navigate your current situation are of that nature, so it's possibly that they could be misunderstood, but I'll try nonetheless.

One thing (among many) I didn't (couldn't) appreciate when I was your age, Is just how much of my life was still ahead of me. The notion that your path will be set in stone based solely on how you spend the next five years is silly, but it's an easy assumption to make, since it's what you're currently focused on, and (if your upbringing was anything like mine) there are probably lots of people insisting that this is a life-or-death situation.

Secondly (and I'm not sure whether this will come as a comfort or not), your dreams might change. What if you push through your current program and end up hating the field? Or get into a PhD in the US and hate it here? What if you become a medical researcher and find you hate that? Or decide to become a physician and hate it (while still harboring a love of machine learning)? And what if you suddenly decide that you'd like to pursue something altogether different than CS or medicine?

I'm not saying that because the outcome is unpredictable you should just choose a direction blindly. Rather, you shouldn't stress too much about whether your path will line up with your current passions. Ultimately, your interests may change in ways that you can't anticipate, but you're young, and (per paragraph 2) you'll have lots of time to change your mind in the future.

If this advice seems unhelpful, I understand (per paragraph 1), since none of it addresses what you should actually do. But, whether you realize it or not, this isn't actually a question about what you should do, it's a question about what you value in life. For what its worth, none of the imagined outcomes (ML PhD, Med School, SE) seem like a terrible fate to me, so you should just follow your heart.

Planting trees, carbon capture, etc. is NOT "going faster". It's definitely good if you can do it supplementary, if you have money to burn after funding things that will help reduce emissions (roof insulation, double windows, replace car with electric car, add rooftop solar, fund a solar park or wind turbine nearby, etc.), but in virtually all cases it's much more expensive than reducing emissions and helping others do the same. We need to explore how to live sustainably rather than hope everyone will pay for their share of carbon capture (in the form of trees or whatever) while "the others" fix the underlying problem. We'd need an absolutely humongous number of trees or capture plants to retrieve today's emissions.

That said, I was actually just writing about the topic of planting trees :)

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25680156

> For what it's worth, if you have unavoidable emissions today that you want to compensate, and want to also fund the people working on CO2 capturing technology, see https://climeworks.shop for a pay-what-you-want option. I don't really believe in planting trees (which is way cheaper per ton of CO2 it claims to absolve you of), and these machines apparently emit "only" 10kg for every 100kg of CO2 captured (90% effective sounds reasonable), and it's accounted for who claimed which share of the machine's captured volume so it sounds directly effective to me. It's just that the scale is peanuts and will remain so until public bodies and companies start to run out of emission reduction options and decide to use it - but at that point we better have this tech geared up.

I do need to sleep still tonight (0230 here) so I won't now type out (on mobile) the reasons I don't think trees are a reliable option. And by tomorrow it won't matter anymore, nobody will read it (I don't like the ephemerality of HN/reddit threads.) So these are my 2ct, hope I could clarify my reasoning as I will go sleep now.
> Who do you think should?

Boeing should be forced to publish all trade secrets that were used in their planes which contributed to the deaths of these people (so basically all IP that Boeing owns), and they should have all their patents annulled.
Ooooohhh. That makes sense. I thought they meant actually signing the ballot itself, which is why I was so confused.

Last year on CNN there was a documentation about repurposing old shipping containers as temporary homes in Africa. I have no direct link, but this article is related: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shipping_container_architecture Due to the economic crisis, there are a lot of old shipping container in certain parts of the world (usually due to one-way shipping purpose "import-only").

I hear the guitar riff in the left audio channel, but I don’t notice it ever clashing with the main melody. It plays varied chords most of the time. When it is monotonous from 0:39 to 0:55, the note it repeats is always a note in the underlying chord, so I still don’t perceive it as clashing.
Hey that sounds like a good idea. Using a personal wiki I mean - that had not occurred to me.

A common problem I face, especially so because I am self-employed, is that at any moment there are many things I could do to better myself. Which one do I choose? I don't always make the best choices. Often I do nothing at all because I am overwhelmed.
Some Inform code would make excellent poetry, however.
One of the most shocking difference I found between USA/europe culture and Japan is the approach to technology.

on the western side there is inherent disbilief in technology and what it will do for the society. In popular litterature evil will often come from human hubris who defies god.Technology will go berserk, the robots will kill us all. And so much romantizing of the good old days, the eden, the tropical beach where we all play naked and innocent.

I can't believe the USA have earthquakes on the west side, drought, -40C winters, hurricanes and floodings on the other parts, and still have this idealized idea of a low tech heaven on earth. Or does this view only hold off on mildly nice temperatured places ?

I contrast this to Japan because without cleverly engineered houses and buildings you're probably dead within 10 years. One can still build a house structure solely from wood, heavily relying on traditional arts, but interestingly enough these builders are super knowledgable, have a very broad knowledge of architecture and materials, just as much as any architect has, and improve on the traditional formulas wherever it makes sense. Quite the opposite of "let's gather the neoghboors and build some stuff"

I think both approaches need to exist for diversity, but my heart goes to the ones trying to make the world better one bit of knowledge at the time, more than the one closing in their time shells.

> ("ownership", as much as any human can claim that a piece of the earth belongs to them and them alone)

They can claim it as long as they can defend it, and historically that defense has been by force. It should make you feel better that (by and large) we don't need to kill each other in order to reserve a spot to sleep.
Languages are pretty irrelevant. I use C# personally just because I like it, but others use Matlab, R, or Java. If someone came on board and could make us money in Smalltalk or QBasic, we'd let them use that. :)

Data can come from numerous places depending on your licensing budget. For an initial analysis you can go to Yahoo! for daily prices; data reliability isn't great but you get what you pay for there. Bloomberg provides great data (assuming you guys have a Bloomberg tutorial), but make sure to read their T&C! They have very strict rules about taking data off machines, etc. Other sources are places like Tickdata.com and similar vendors whose sole purpose is to provide you with clean, reliable data.

As far as frameworks go, to be honest most of the code is created from scratch. My C# framework is around 50,000 lines plus the code for individual models. It still feels like it's only about 5% of what I want it to be. If I were to start over again, I'd probably go with R because so many computational finance people have contributed to it and its graphing/plotting/statistics features are amazing.

Are you in a position to change how your company approaches modeling? We're currently expanding into consulting and services as well. If you want to talk more about that, check my profile and send me an email. We could probably help you guys get started in the area or work with your team to develop custom models.

The book looks like it may be really good. Most of what I've learned about automated execution has been through the long road of trial and error. Most of those topics in the book are important, though it seems based on the ToC that the content may fizzle out just when it gets to the good stuff.
At my school, they said "one-to-one" and "onto" for "injective" and "surjective". But then, the linear professor started teaching the subject in 1952, so he was quirky.
Enterprise software sucks.

We don't talk about it much here at hn, but think about it. Every man-made object you encounter every day was manufactured somewhere. And moved, more than once. Now add in all the sales, marketing, customer service, operations, accounting, finance, human resources, etc., etc., etc. needed to support that manufacturing and distribution. Next, add financial markets, healthcare, energy, entertainment, etc., etc., etc. and you have tons of stuff. But you don't see it and rarely think about it. Kinda like most of the iceberg being underwater.

And all of this needs software. And most of what they have sucks. I mean really sucks. Enterprise software is so bad that there are multi-billion dollar industries devoted to consulting on how to use it, how to share it, and how to store it in data warehouses and harvest it. It's so bad that lots of people have to dump the data out of their enterprise systems and into Microsoft Excel just to get anything done.

When Willie Sutton was asked why he robbed banks, he said because that's where the money is.

What banks were in the 1930's, enterprise IT is in the 21st century.
Putting on my tinfoil hat for a second. Wouldn't it benefit huge corporations to push studies that favor Intrinsic motivation.

I work at Red Hat. I heard about the company ever since I heard about linux, but I didn't realize they have an office in my city before a colleague from my previous employer went there.

When I started looking for a different job, I knew a bit more about them and they were the first company I looked at.
Oddly enough, responding to a newspaper ad.
