Problem is, it isn't actually a 1G manoeuvre. You can only have a constant 1G if you are in straight and level flight. If you perform a gentle turn, you will have very slightly more than 1G as you bank around the turn.

With roll, if you pull positive 1G while inverted, the plane will effectively be accelerating towards the ground twice as much as if it was in free fall. When the roll is over, in order to regain straight and level flight, more than 1G must be pulled to counteract the groundwards velocity that has been accumulated.

I think they just opened it and took a picture of each page. According to the EXIF data in the images it was taken with a Phase One IQ180 - a very high-end 80MP digital camera that costs $40k+:

What I find annoying is that the viewer is yet another one of those JS-heavy web apps... when this could be done much simpler using a static page image gallery, or even better, a PDF. (Contrast it with the digital library at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10006579 to see what i mean.)

The direct links to the high-res images (not the full 80MP, but ~3.5MP) are here:

Because there are only 24 hours in a day?

Exercising takes a really long time. If I wanted to be physically active, I need to allocate a big chunk of my day towards exercising, which means I need to give up something else --- something I actually enjoy.

One thing that physically active people tend not to realise is that not everybody finds exercise enjoyable.

I am not particularly unfit; I do various physically active things; but for me, regular exercise is horrible. I find it an utterly miserable experience; uncomfortable in every possible way, and worst of all, incredibly boring. And it never gets better. A while ago I made myself train up and enter a 10km race, and completed in a reasonable time. As I progressed, the only thing that changed was that I was capable of prolonging the discomfort for longer. That's a negative feedback loop! I was so glad when I actually completed the race and could finally stop.

I am so, so jealous of people who actually enjoy doing this crap.

So if there's a side-effect free way of getting the health benefits of exercise without having to put up with an hour a day of tedium and lactic acid reaction, that would be amazing.

Technically called an aileron roll.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aileron_roll
To help make "ends meet," it's possible to get some food, healthcare and monetary assistance from federal, state, county and city programs, often managed by each county's social services agency.

Firstly, there's the Refugee Cash Assistance (RCA) program: https://www.sccgov.org/sites/ssa/debs/calworks/Pages/refugee...

Here are some other California refugee programs: http://www.dss.cahwnet.gov/refugeeprogram/

List of other refugee programs:
http://www.visaus.com/benefits.html

Next, food aid (food stamps) is called CalFresh (req 5 yrs of residency for noncitizens)

After that, there's MediCal (state-run health insurance available at the county social services agency) (unsure of requirements)

Lastly, General Assistance (emergency cash, a pittance) (only 15 days of residency is required). You can sign up for it at a local social services agency office.

Here's the main website for Santa Clara county: https://www.sccgov.org/sites/ssa

(Beware of name clash: federal Social Security is also called SSA. I hear any sort of Social Security benefits usually takes a very long time and lots of paperwork to get.)

Another perspective: while Americans were building a prosperous society of free men, the Europeans were continuously slaughtering each other, first for dynastic power, and then to impose their top-down "solutions" to the social problems you're talking about. Today the Europeans have so saddled themselves with taxation and regulation that they underperform economically. Their welfare systems have not solved poverty, but have fostered a culture of dependency on the state. In the pursuit of economic equality, they have succeeded mostly in raising the cost of living and creating a hostile environment for business. Because it's impossible to fire someone, firms are wary to hire, contributing to staggering youth unemployment. Minorities and immigrants are much more poorly integrated than in the US. Europe exerts little influence on world politics outside of the EU. Yes, I'm presenting just one side of the picture, but it's the side that's consistently ignored when the American left is clamoring for European-style socialism.
Yup! (I think rathereasy chose an unfortunate example.) The point is that AC implies that there is a way to put an ordering on all of R such that every nonempty subset has a smallest element.

It's easy to find such an ordering for any countable subset -- i.e., one that set-theoretically is no bigger than the integers. For instance, we can do it for all the rational numbers by saying that we order numbers p/q (p,q integers, no common factor, q positive) by converting p/q to 2^signbit(p) 3^|p| 5^|q| or something of the kind, where signbit(x)=0 is what in C you write as (x<0), and comparing the positive integers that result.

It's much harder to see how to do it for all the real numbers. In fact, you provably can't see how, in the sense that there actually is known to be no construction that does it -- no way to say explicitly which numbers to put before which.

(This is a common pattern; cases where you need AC to do something are always ones where there is no explicit construction that does it. That kinda has to be true, because there are models of set theory in which AC is false.)

I hope you do. It is not callousness that keeps people down, it is the failure of praise and positive reinforcement to be measured with realism and criticism. Even nasty namecalling can be constructive criticism, if someone is used to criticism and is introspective.

The most abject failures I've known in life are those who've been unable to recognize their mistakes, unable to handle criticism, and most clearly, those who've always had a bailout and never hit rock bottom.
Blue Card isn't only option. For example, in Sweden there are two work visas for software developers: Blue Card and Work Permit.

I didn't get Blue Card since I didn't get job offer with really high salary, but instead I got Work Permit which don't require salary 1.5 times higher than the average.

Also in Netherlands there are two options: Blue Card and High Skilled Migrant.

Requirements for High Skilled Migrant are much lower than for Blue Card.

In Sweden and Netherlands you can work without university degree.

In Germany, you can not get Blue Card without university degree. And if you want to get Work Permit as alternative, you should know German language (Sweden and Netherlands don't require you to know their language).

So Germany isn't good option. I recommend Sweden and Netherlands if you don't have university degree.
Often times it's just that though. Just because many customers are experiencing something doesn't mean ALL customers are experiencing something.

DiabloD3 almost certainly limited caloric intake at some point (at intake or somewhere in digestion). But your comment doesn't address some complexity in the way the body processes food, or in the food itself. For example, eating 200 calories of refined sugar is considerably worse in terms of your eventual absorption of energy than eating 200 calories of banana. This is at least partly because the banana consumes more energy in digestion, and partly because less of the energy in the banana will actually eventually be absorbed by your body.

Parenthetically, the banana will not generate a considerable spike in blood sugar, something that, as I understand it, is very unhealthy.

While it's not an awful rough guide, nutrition is not as simple as calories in vs. calories out. Better perhaps if you're counting the calories in your stool, but who's going to do that? (And besides, that still wouldn't be a complete solution).

Also, in case you're reading this DiabloD3, congratulations. A drastic and I'm sure extremely challenging lifestyle change. I'm happy to hear about such a success story.

If I had time for a project of no consequence I would write an Amiga game in 68000 assembly, just to say I finally did it. I loved the Amiga as a teenager, but I couldn't afford all the books and development tools I needed. I had a frustrating time trying to piece together everything from magazines, coverdisks and half-baked public domain tools and consequently didn't make much progress as a programmer.

I always had a feeling of unfinished business about it, that if things had been different I could have started a game development career in the 90's rather than trying to make a name as an indie dev today.

I sometimes mess around in 68000 or in Blitz Basic on an emulator and it always strikes me how different it feels to code on an Amiga and how things have changed. When I'm coding on the Amiga, I can focus. Everything I need to know is in a few books that are ready to hand.

And because I can talk to the hardware directly in such an elegant language as 68000, I feel like I am engaging with the machine in a much more solid, craftsmanlike sense than when I'm coding at my day job, teetering at the top of a great tangled pile of platform layers that I must negotiate like a harassed digital bureaucrat.

It makes me think of how I thought computers would progress back then. As a teen I thought the computers of the future would be more profound, rather than merely more complex, as they are today. That they'd still be comprehensible to a single person but require more from them, like an expert martial artist or meditator or something.

That's the Amiga for you. It's the dreamer's computer:)

I live in a relatively poor village in Laos and have visited many villages way poorer than the one I live in and I think a big part of the reason people can stay happy and have hope on a budget of a few dollar a day is the strong sense of family and community in these villages.

Not allowing entry isn't an unreasonable thing to do. It's a failure of procedure that these things are able to happen so easily. If your systems and laws make it easy to unintentionally break the law you should fix that.

The problem is also the way the US does these things. The amount of hostility and the way they treat people.
Woah ... pressure points (Nardi) is the same in Tamil too ! South Indian martial art form covers the use of Nadi (pressure points/nerves) to disarm/disable opponents.

Agree - we crunched the numbers and came up with the same figures to do-it-yourself (~USD$9K). Although, I remember from the day this was announced (few months back) that Nvidia were loud-and-proud that they weren't going to make money from this. Each box was hand built and tested, so not deemed to be a large-scale device - they recognized that it's a niche market.

$15K is probably OK(ish) if you figure in your own time for the DIY build...probably a few days. Plus you get some vendor support, warranty on the whole package, certified working stack, future test-bed for CUDA updgrades (will work first), etc as you say.

In wild agreement. Save maybe 30% doing a custom build...so they aren't adding a huge mark-up, as they would for a gaming machine. Apparently...someone at Nvidia is looking a bit further into the future than just the short-term revenue.
You need to be already educated in order to take advantage of Gutenberg. Knowing which books make sense to read requires prior knowledge. Moreover, very little of what is on Guttenberg teaches actual skills you can earn money with.

The most important things you learn good school gives you are a.) ability to distinguish what makes sense to learn and what is waste of time b.) ability to study alone. And judging from what college profs say, even supposedly good high school that produce college students fail to achieve b. all too often. It does not mean it is impossible for all to learn useful things alone the way you suggest, but that is requires much higher abilities then finishing normal college.

Free online college course are great thing when you are already educated (e.g. like me), but:
* they wont give you diploma which is what employers care about,
* are much harder to finish from home when you are doing them alone,
* some courses still require you to buy expensive books.

After work education programs have higher failure rates then full day students - it is just harder to study after you worked 8 hours or more assuming you did not slacked. Being full time student is easier.

Even paid online courses have have higher failure rates then comparable in person courses (e.g. comparable demographic), that might have to do with psychology (motivation) or simply with in-person communication between students being more effective then discussions on forums. Keeping motivation up when you are in daily contact with other students is non-issue, keeping it while alone is harder. Overcoming struggles when friends can give you advice in person is easier then doing it with forums only.

Everybody in HN makes big deal about how working with smart good people is important for you cause you learn from them, well this is the same thing.

Finishing coursera course from home where you can study whenever it suits you, where you can google anytime you struggle with no transport needed is easier then having to do so in library. Of course it is possible form library too, but it is harder, require more commitment and persistence.

Since Castro's communist regime came to power in Cuba, Cubans have been fleeing the island for freedom and opportunity in the US. With the exception of a minority that was lucky enough to have foreign bank accounts and land-holdings, they all came to the US with nothing. At the airport in Havana, the Cuban army emptied your wallet and purse, took all of your jewelry, and left you with essentially the clothes on your back. Fast forward to today and the 2 million Cubans in the US are the wealthiest hispanic immigrant group, and American-born descendants of Cuban immigrants are actually wealthier than non-hispanics whites (what most people call "white people"). There's no other place in the world where such a feat would be possible.
Poor people don't live in an isolated bubble. The culture you talk about is everyone culture. It affect middle class with a selection bias, like only seeing the welfare queen, and it affects the poor in a broken window theory fashion.

There is proven way to change that: government money, laws, media restriction. That worked with racism and women discrimination.

That probably does not sound good ( forbid media trash talking the poor in the land of freedom of speech ) but it is a vicious circle that needs to be broken somewhere and government is the one that has all the ropes to achieve it.

For example, every time you objectively think a private institution for health or education (school or university) is necessary instead of being a mere convenience is part of the problem. But you can't just put your kids in the public school and hope that enough people do the same as you do out of civic duty, you have responsibility to your children too. Poor people think the private school is better too, they just can't afford it and give up leading their kids to give up ending eventually in

> Wasting money/health on cigarette smoking and booze and drugs

Others fights to put their kids in there anyway and take incredible financial risk that could end up to them using last resort payday loan that fuel the statistic that make you think

> the victimhood status we confer upon the poor only serves to lock them in their place.

For my part, I blame a culture of super heroes measured in dollar where anything can be forgiven as long as you made a buck out of it. There seem to be an obsession in the US Media with the people that "made it" that I don't remember from my youth in Europe. Along with it, a culture of individualism that despite basically anything requiring a team always ends up as the simple narrative of the one lone genius against the world.

I don't think a discussion of particle generations is complete without a mention of the Koide formula:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koide_formula

Essentially, if you take the square roots the electron, muon and tau masses (let's call them e/m/t), you can calculate (e²+m²+t²)/(e+m+t)², which turns out to be around 0.6667. It may even be exactly 2/3.

If the masses were equal, it would be 1/3, and if one of the masses were much larger than the others, it would approach 1. So it's not just interesting that it seems to be a simple fraction, it's also right in the middle of the two extremes.

Of course, according to modern physics the masses arise through very complicated interactions, so most physicists dismiss the formula as a coincidence.
