My advice to people visiting Mexico regarding ATMs is to try to use one at an actual bank location, or at least operated by a major bank. Even in the US I'm skeptical of third party ATMs.

I like Evernote. I like how its available across devices. The Web UI is really nice, though the Desktop Native app needs a facelift. I use it to write "private blogs" on my tablet. I used to use Svtble for this as I love the simplicity and the UI but they dont seem to have a native android app, so Evernote is how I do things now and would be sad to see them go.

Does anyone know of any better apps for my usecase (writing loads of text on tablet and have them easily available across devices. Preferably native Desktop app as well)?

Ps: I love OneNote but... it does't feel like its meant for dumping loads of text into it and the Android app has horrible reviews so i haven't risked downloading it yet

Charging any EV in 15 minutes is going to be challenging in a residential area, I suspect. Imagine going out with a full charge and driving like a maniac with the goal of draining the charge completely in 15 minutes. How much energy did you turn into tire smoke during that 15-minute drive? That determines how much available power you'll need to charge that puppy back up in the same amount of time. 250 HP * 750 W/HP = about 50 kW for 15 minutes....? On a residential 220V circuit that'd require 225-amp service. The thermal losses will be massive.

Once again, the only way this even remotely makes sense is to standardize the battery form factor and swap them.

> Fast reactors can eliminate almost all the long-term waste, which consists of transuranic isotopes that fast reactors use for fuel.

Not every transuran is viable fuel. Some of the stuff is actually actively getting in the way of an efficient fission chain reaction.

The key benefit of fast breeder reactors is, that you can fuel them with stuff that's more abundant on Earth, so you're not getting into a fuel shortage (our supplies of U235 are quite limited, some 70 years or so, using conventional fission reactors). So you need to either go through a fast U238→Pu239 or a Th232→U233 process if you want to make use of the abundant stuff.

Oh, and most of the fission products are not very pleasant either and you can't efficiently burn them in any way whatsoever. Burner Accelerators? I've got a few things for you to look up: Penetration epth, Bragg peak, small volume active zone.

> The rest of the waste is fission products. Encase them in glass and bury them, they're back to the radioactivity of the original ore in a couple centuries.

Unfortunately not. The generation zero of nuclides will decay in that timeframe. But all the other stuff to follow, less radioactive, but still dangerous, takes much more time to decay; and those daughter generation nuclides is where the headaches start. And it's not just the physics that's a problem, it's also chemistry. Some of the elements that are born are quite aggressive, chemically.

Hello, declarative world
Stopped reading after author considered IDE's to be a code smell. I mean honestly - they are there to make life easier and speed up writing code. 99% of the time I only have to type 2 chars + [TAB] and autocomplete completes the word for me. Now I have a descriptive word that I can read and write in less than a second. How is this bad? Coupled with contextual member browsing on typing a '.', and contextual rename refactoring, and contextual errors/warnings underlining...

The fact that Go doesn't have an official IDE is actually what stops me from going near the language.

How do GraphQL implementations avoid denial of service?

In other words, what stops anyone from easily disabling a website by making a few parallel extremely complex GraphQL requests that consume all CPU and I/O, and perhaps result in holding some locks for a very long time?

In normal APIs you can make sure most endpoints are cheap to run, and throttle, secure or otherwise control the ones that must be expensive, but that doesn't work if you expose a flexible layer like GraphQL (or SQL).
Yes i did mean the council of the European Union, but sorry you are completely wrong on everything else.
The Parliament has only a say on 1 of the 28 commission members the which is the president and even then it's not elected by them. The president is nominated by the council, and confirmed by the parliament. This is similar to how supreme justices are confirmed by the senate in the US however the EUP has much less power over that confirmation.
The rest of the 27 members are appointed directly by the council.

You can say that the EU as a whole is actually non-democratic all of the power de-jure and de-facto lies within the council, the council represents the executive branches of the EU members, you can even make an argument that the EU actually undermines the
democratic process in other countries as it gives their executive branch a possible legislative power which they do not have directly in their own country.

The executive branches set up the council, the council has direct control over the legislative and executive powers of the union which means they can pass laws which might have implications on EU member states (especially if the state has decided to subdue itself to EU law in it's constitution, cough Sweden cough) in a manner that the executive branch of those states would not have agency on.

But isn't that the case with any kind of thing people use? You need to create/store it, and you need to deliver it. I go to the supermarket shelves and there are hundreds of items with similar issues. We don't debate the hoarding of pickles. Or the production capacity of peanut butter.

This is a serious problem, and I'm not trying to belittle it. But as I recall, you can give people a gallon of water anywhere in California for just a few pennies, maybe less. To interested outsiders, the issue here seems to be almost entirely a political one.

I had some suspicions that the previous installment was a fabricated story, and after correspondence with the author my suspicions were confirmed to my satisfaction: that this entire adventure is an out and out fabrication.

I am reading Part 2 with great interest to see if it could easily be fabricated or if it includes any evidence not trivially produced. In fact, (I am not done reading), Part 2 confirms my suspicions:

To wit, any normal person returning to Marriott CasaMagna and documenting his adventures would have felt great satisfaction to see the ATM unplugged in response to his complaints, and taken a trophy photo. This journalist did not. (Because the entire story is fabricated, at no point were the ATM's unplugged.)

You heard it here, folks. This entire adventure is fabricated. My correspondence with the author confirms this to my satisfaction. (You can also see my previous comments for what initially raised my suspicions.)

Even if it's not official the IntelliJ Go plugin is quite good. It recently added support for a debugger, and it has a lot of static analysis capabilities and refactoring. I would say it is on par with other environments for most serious languages. The Emacs go-mode and vim-go are good enough but not as great.

There is a general attitude in the Go community eschewing all sorts of complexity be it in the language itself or tooling and this attitude is toxic and stupid. It will prevent Go from becoming a serious language unless this nonsense about "simplicity" is left to perpetuate. There is nothing wrong with keeping a language elegant--cue a brouhaha about generics in 1... 2... 3...---but forcing this attitude to tooling is not a wise thing to do. A significant majority of professional devs do not write their code in vim without syntax highlighting, which is what some eminent members of the Go community seem to be in favour of. They need auto-completion, refactoring (which search and replace isn't), automated deployment and testing, debugging and project support.

You can have basically all the "official IDE" behavior you are listing with Vim or Emacs extensions (of the editors I know of).

If you are not going near a language for the lack of an "official IDE", you are really limiting your options.
He is just in love with the shiny toy: Go is good, Go doesnt have and IDE => IDE is bad.

I have seen a guy on HN saying that debuggers are bad and logging debug messages is superior :). Future is here, but it is sooo unevenly distributed.
IDEs can be a crutch. To me vim is genuinely faster at text navigation and manipulation to the point that none of the benefits of an IDE are worth the trade. Plus you can add many of the features you mentioned to vim quite easily but adding an accurate an useful vim-clone mode to an IDE can be difficult. Being able to select a block of code with a keyboard shortcut and then apply a complex regular expression search and replace inside that block and reformat the block in pure fast keyboard shortcuts is too powerful. Really the only time I ever end up in an IDE these days is if I need to build a GUI. Even then I usually drop back to vim for the code editing.
> Once again, the only way this even remotely makes sense is to standardize the battery form factor and swap them.

But then how will the apple car be distinct and unrepairable. /joke.

The battery standardization train is long gone. We missed the opportunity with consumer device Li-ion. And manufacturers now know that non replaceable battery is better for them, than for the consumers. Because you can bundle higher capacity batteries with only premium devices.

If some big regulatory power like EU steps in as with the universal USB charge it will be possible. But I doubt it.
> Stopped reading after author considered IDE's to be a code smell.

That's not what the article claims, however. The author critizes languages that _require_ an IDE, not the availability of IDEs.

There are so many premises wrong here - it hurts:

1. The majority of people in fact doesn't care about being tracked - "hackers" (and also myself) do care though - but that's a minority.

2. Most people like good advertisement.

3. It's wrong to just naturally assume that ads have to be annoying. A discreet, not-moving, not-animated ad is not bothering anybody.

4. Just as most people aren't willing to pay for content they aren't willing to pay for the maintenance of ad blockers - which is why the devs of those ABs will (and as a matter of fact) already offer whitelisting for money. [http://arstechnica.com/business/2015/02/over-300-businesses-...]

5. More and more web-sites will simply deny access to their content if ad blocking is detected.

6. The HN people's perspective on ads is in each and every way not that of the majority of people potentially clicking ads. We are not the driving force.

---

The equilibrium will be Ad Blockers that white list benevolent and discreet ads - advertisement as an income source will become less attractive but it won't go away.

Also Ad Blocking depends on detectable code or ad servers. If the ad dissemination technology shifts accordingly then Ad Blockers simply won't be able to detect ads any longer.
I think his point is that writing Go with a simple editor is just fine. Some languages are a pain to write without an IDE.

On the other hand, I'm with you on the fact that not having a good IDE is actually a bad thing. If you want to code with a single editor, that's fine, but IDEs boost productivity a lot once you learn how to use them. Not having a proper IDE is a minus for a language in my opinion.

That's another good point - no official go debugger. Additionally IDE's give you breakpoints, line highlighting, contextual variable inspection and so on.

Sigh. I'm a "drone hobbyist" myself, although I mostly refer to the hobby as "RC model flying". Nothing new, because the RC flying hobby has been around for decades.

Part of me applauds the stricter rules. It's just so easy for some knucklehead to buy a quadcopter from China and fly it around the White House or an airport or over someone's backyard. Unfortunately, these people destroy the hobby, giving it a bad name.

On the other hand, the rules we have had for decades (don't fly near airports or restricted zones, don't fly too high, don't fly over crowds, etc.) are perfectly fine and reasonable. We don't need stricter rules and regulations, we need common sense from drone pilots.

Secretly I hope that drones are really a fad, and the interest will fade away. That leaves the hobby for the real enthousiasts.
They can say anything they want right now - it's just a concept and not real. The proof of the pudding is what the feature set is when they ship. The same goes for the price.

Thanks for the kind comment!

I'm Norwegian, and I do consider English as one of my primary languages --- but it's not my native language, so it's easy to write something that doesn't sound right to others, not to mention grammatical problems. For instance, it's been years since I learned about punctuation and comma, and there are differences between Norwegian and English in this regard.

Writing comments online is one thing. It's entirely different when I have to write reports and stuff like that. That's when I'd like to use a good tool to help with grammar and general flow. It's easy to make a mistake when you're writing tens of pages of text that you have to deliver somewhere.

Not to mention it shouldn't be compared to the Tesla Model S, which is a sedan not a sports car. Tesla has already announced it will release a new Roadster in four years [1]. So now that Porsche has already shown its cards, you can bet that the new Roadster will be better in every single way AND arrive earlier.

We already know it will be significantly better in at least one way - the Maximum Plaid acceleration will probably give it a ~2.5s acceleration from 0-62 miles. And Porsche's increase in mileage 5 years from now compared to current top of the line Model S seems tiny as well, and my guess is the new top of the line Roadster will have at least 20-30% better mileage as well.

> We don’t have an end design in mind. At the same time, however, the costs of continuing along our historically unprecedented levels of incarceration remain obscure to all but the most determined news hounds.

Two sides of the coin: a) conspiracy theory and b) unintended consequences. You use unintended consequences when pretending your ruling class (you know, the ones who literally make the many rules we live under) is just bumbling, perhaps selfish but more or less benevolent overall.

Conspiracy theory typically has the same overall systematic benevolence, except some evil schemers perverted everything.

Imagine a politician stumbling across Wikipedia: "Hmm that's odd, we imprison ourselves way more than anyone else. And somehow, we keep funding all the infrastructure needed for that. Ehh, you learn a random weird thing everyday."

Someone with the least bit of institutional awareness can — hold on to your hats — entertain the thought that the system is running as expected and intended. Just like if any other nation had these results. Not a bug, but a feature.

> prisons have failed to deliver on the promises of rural economic development so often touted.

An illustration of how "unintended consequences" perverts our minds. What strange person writes, "Russia's prisons failed to economically develop rural areas, as so often touted" with a straight face? (Or China, or Iran?) No, some claims are such an insult to intelligence that no one would write them with a straight face. And yet, here it is.

I've used Go for numerous web projects, and I dislike it progressively more as time goes on. There are a lot of things that I really like about it, but I feel as though its advocates have a bit of stockholm syndrome. If Go makes X difficult or clumsy, then clearly X is a bad idea and you should Do It The Go Way™. I hope that doesn't come across as too dismissive; it's just been my experience.

I really like some of the decisions around Go, but I don't like Go itself, as a language. For web apps, at least. I've been looking at http://elixir-lang.org/ and http://www.phoenixframework.org/ and I really hope that they gain steam before Go does. I will continue to use Go for command-line apps, which I think it is very well suited for.
There's a Go plugin for IntelliJ but I haven't used it in a while. There are plugins for vim and emacs too. Currently I use Sublime Text with a Go plugin. It has autocompletion and runs the formatter on save. I've built a couple of personal websites with Go.
