"The Wall Street Journal reported in early December that J.P. Morgan and several other banks, including Citigroup Inc., HSBC Holdings PLC, Deutsche Bank AG and Bank of America Corp., had spoken privately with clients in recent months that new regulations are making some deposits less profitable, in some cases telling clients they would charge fees or work to find alternatives for some of the deposits."
Sold my house this summer. My wife listed the house on Zillow and took nice looking pictures and put a good description. We also paid a real estate agent $300 to list our house in the MLS (and we would handle the rest of the sale). Once our listing was in the MLS Zillow brought in the crapified compressed JPEGs from the MLS feed and overwrote our description etc, and locked us out from further edits. Fail.

Zillow is going about this all wrong... their advantage is that they aren't the MLS system, they are the best positioned to be an alternative to the NAR cartel. If anything THEY should have agents in every town who will put your house into the MLS for you for $300, as well as allow enhanced listing on their site at the same time... they might actually make some money that way, and also it would solve their MLS problem. Instead they seem to want to beg the cartel for a seat at the table. Pretty sad.
When there's an ongoing major story, we downweight follow-up posts (ones that don't contain significant new information) as quasi-dupes. Otherwise the front page tends to fill up with copycat articles. This is the lesson we learned from l'affaire Snowden.

Arguably it shouldn't be on the front page at all, since https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10337299 is, and that's the thread the HN discussion crystallized around. Edit: and then there's https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10338904. But I think that on the day the story broke, a few different angles are ok.

(p.s. I only saw this by accident. If you want to make sure that we see something, please email hn@ycombinator.com. We can't read all the HN comments but we do read all the emails.)

Yep - for example, Windows 10, although being rather nice update, changed start menu to XAML (in a separate process), and a result is that when I press the Win button on my i5 with new SSD, either nothing happens (missed keystroke? really??) or I wait up to 5 seconds.

Needless to say, all keystrokes before it opens are missed, so Win + type program name + enter turns into Win ... wait ... type program name ... wait some more ... enter.

Also, touchpad drivers. They sold more macbooks to PC laptop owners than anyone else.

It's worth questioning for sure, but at the same time it's easy to misunderstand Aikido.

"opponents playing along" is half-accurate. In Aikido you spend most of your time practicing techniques with a partner, and they do not play the role of an uncooperative opponent for two specific reasons:

1. The goal of Aikido is to, through repetition, build muscle-memory of very specific techniques. These are very different types of techniques than what you'll find in say, karate, where it's basically kicking and punching. These techniques are designed to disable your opponent while minimizing harm. Aikido is also not about kicking and punching, it's about responding to kicks and punches (attacks).

There is simply no way to build that muscle memory other than by having repetition with a cooperative partner. To outsiders this may seem like opponents that merely "play along" with your attacks, but that is ultimately a misunderstanding of what's going on.

2. These techniques are painful if you don't cooperate. The reason the "opponent" seems to be "playing along" is because they have to do this over and over for the length of the class session. If you're a poor Uke (the opponent) and are uncooperative, you will end up missing most of your classes due to injuries. A good Uke will be uncooperative to the extent that it helps Nage (the person practicing the technique) learn the technique without seriously injuring themselves.
if it's bad enough (i.e. threatening the business or at risk of losing customer trust), you can and will be promoted after making things better.
they will do nothing, because they are not journalists.

The fed will conduct as many permanent open market operations ,i.e, electronically printing money, as necessary to keep a default from happening. The risk of a default is purely theoretical. The only serious risk is that the dollar exchange rate will start to rapidly deteriorate.

10% annual loss on the warehouse-stored amount does not mean 10% loss of annual income. Some of that annual income is getting turned into non-cash assets, after all.
I think one missing piece is routing integration... at least this demo has an async and push injections for state, which is better than some systems I've seen... it would be easiest to create a module that has a dispatcher for such event cancellation tracking, likely by a named request queue.

Even without the Star Wars stuff, it's not really clear what value this app provides.

To me it appears to just be a cursable priority queue component. Such a component should be provided by a standard library, not implemented as its own app. Of course, this is a learning exercise so some leeway is afforded, but it might be even more effective to include extracting the core component into a reusable library as part of the challenge.

Also, what is a Todo app, but a priority queue?

I feel the same way about the Surface 3 Keyboard. I wasn't going to buy one initially, but the cheapest (used) SP3 came with one. Really give me the best of all worlds - tablet for media consumption, detachable keyboard is a viable laptop replacement (trackpad is not great but usable), and the dock gives me a decent desktop replacement (Quad-core i5/8GB RAM/Gigabit Ethernet/USB3/Mini-Displayport gives me everything I need for anything except gaming).

I've also been impressed with MS's customer support - the tip on the Surface Pen broke, and getting a new one UPSed to me only took about 20 minutes (register serial number, then a quick live-chat on the support website).

My take as a psychologist.

Myth #1: It is partly a diagnosis issue but that will not be solved by waving a spectrum wild-card. Strictly all mental-health disorders are present in a normal state in the general population. That goes for mania, depression, oscillations between the two, lack of empathy, anxiety, and even psychosis (e.g. it would be very unhealthy to not be somewhat paranoid these days, dreams are necessary hallucinations). The inability to fluidly shift among these many ways of dealing with reality, following the circumstances is, in my own personal book, the problem. Past a certain degree of rigidity, that itself fosters behaviors, we have a problem and often the person is aware of that. That ties in with Myth #2.

In my experience, it's not lack of empathy but a deficit in the ability to intuitively project into an other. A very large proportion of our interactions and behaviors rests on intuition and subconscious processing. I often compare autism to flying instruments. Try it and you'll very quickly get a clue of what it feels like to lack this intuitive processing.

The sad and hard thing is that autistic people do suffer from that and are often driven crazy not by the autistic thing but by the, secondary, suffering.

For adolescents. it's even worse: they fly instruments in a storm.

Myth #3: So it really isn't about normalizing but about increasing flexibility. And reducing suffering is pretty much a pre-requisite towards that. Even in Aspies, this suffering is sometimes so great that it reminds me of homosexuals before the invention of the "coming out".

Can't seem to find any info on the actual process of achieving this level of purification.
I take the opposite view. Programming is fairly easy and many people do it without realizing it. EX: Adding waypoints in StarCraft pathing for new units.

Professional programming like professional dancing is simply taking that same idea several steps further.
I feel the same. The biggest annoyance is not having a better command-line application, at least provide tabs or split-windows. With enough work I can get around not having unix but having open 4 powershells is annoying.
>Since there is no real understanding of what that "engineering" is, there can't be a body of standards to which qualify and license.

The definition of engineer is NOT someone licensed and liable. I'm not sure where you got that idea.

The definition of engineering is the application of science and mathematics to solving everyday problems.

Cool project! Something you might want to keep in mind for future iterations or similar projects -

You ended up with 127 usable scans, and then used all 127 scans as your test data set while developing. You run the risk, here, of 'overfitting' your data set. That is to say, you figure out a set of parameters and techniques that gets a good match rate (98%) on your test data set, but fails when you try it on new data.

There's a useful technique in machine learning and statistics, called Cross Validation. There's different specific techniques, but basically, you should split up your dataset into training (80%ish) and validation (20%ish) sets, randomly sampled. You develop with just the training set, and when you have a good match rate, you test if it also is good on your validation set. This helps you detect if your technique actually generalizes to new input well, or if it just happens to match what you trained on.
Sorry to hear. It is ok to rant and this happens quite often. I personally don't understand why as you want to give the candidate concrete feedback so that they can work on whatever didn't get them the job.

Also, there are legal reasons tied to it.
As a woman in STEM: I don’t give a fuck if the people in the ads using the device are men or women or cats. (Actually, I’d love to see a major manufacturer only use cats in their ads)

We have far bigger problems than this, like, for example, on the one side income equality, and on the other side people trying to fix it by banning wage negotiations. A good way to handle it would be by implementing a system – like VW did – where, up to the interview, the company only sees your CV, qualifications and references, but not age, gender or sex. This is far more useful for us right now than any kind of "let's force ads to contain 50% women"

It is indeed an exception. But it demonstrates that software engineering does exist, and it suggests that more software could be "engineered", if we chose to do so.

I suspect that reason that such engineering process isn't applied to more software is that we don't really care that much. Are we willing to accept a 10x, or 100x, increase in development time and cost in order to have a more robust iPhone game? Word processor? To-do list?

Which is why I'm interested in the question, what can we take away or relax from avionics-style software development to bring better "engineering" practices to other areas of software? Maybe a 2x increase in time and cost would be acceptable...

"That's what the OEMs get for not being able to put out a laptop that could compete with Apple in all those years"

Exactly. I don't know why it was rocket science, but they had years to clone the MBA (which, imo, is the end of the laptop form factor - it's the platonic ideal of the laptop computer) but they couldn't.
Would be nice if there was some kind of walkthrough. Nothing shows what kind of tags are needed in HTML, what kind of files are uploaded to the web server, how to interact with the DOM, ect, ect.
Have you ever considered flipping your idea on its head? Instead of tying the value of money to what happened in the past, tie it to what may happen in the future. If I have the choice today to spend a dollar with a polluter vs a non-polluter, instead of punishing the polluter in the far future, reward me for making a good choice.

How? Make money decay back to those that spend it through the accounts of those they spent it with so that they are rewarded more if they spend their money with 'good actors' that constantly increase the value they provide.

It's a perfect fit for what I imagined to be a dream laptop for programming: 3:2 high res screen (more vertical space than 16:9 or 16:10), real quad CPU, good battery life, 16GB of RAM. It's light and great looking as well.
The only thing I am missing there and which makes me unlikely to switch is no trackpoint option. I find trackpoint to be so much superior to a trackpad I don't ever want to go back. I even prefer a trackpoint to a mouse these days (and the fact that you don't need to carry it around is just an additional bonuse)
Hmm, the fact that all the ports are in the stand sucks.

Thanks for sharing! That video is worth watching in full, and I wish he had shown Rogen the video I shared above, as that's the best example of "serious Aikido" online that I'm aware of.
It's less a trick, than a sad reality for certain types of software. I'm sure there are others, but for Oracle, for example, currently they require you to have a perpetual license for every core that's running inside your Amazon VM, which makes the pricing crazy.

I'm sure Oracle said, "Hey, either price it like this, or you can price it based on the underlying hardware, which is how we do it with VMware".

So at least now it might be feasible for enterprises to run some of these traditionally licensed software packages without either an all you can eat license or blatantly violating the rules.

No, they really do have too many models. The yoga line is nice, but they clearly don't invest much individual resources on the design of each of the other models, which tends to make them generic. I have a work-supplied s540, and it's a decent workhorse laptop, but a macbook it is not. It's too generic for that. I was also pretty disappointed that the coating had blemishes. Even a cursory visual QA check would have detected those, so either they're shipping product sight unseen, or they're deliberately deciding to ship blemished goods.
Using your gateway is what you do when you lose the ability to apply restrictions on your phone. And since this thread is in response to recent changes in android that remove users ability to control the apps on their phone I thought that was implied.

Of course its ideal to not send the packets and waste the battery at all but when that's not an option, I'd rather use a firewall to block the traffic rather then just let it through, regardless of the hit to the battery due to it constantly retrying the blocked connection.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_9000_Communicator

When you opened Nokia Communicator, it was more like PDA or a computer than a phone. Home screen, calendar, message, etc. widgets, very much like Android phones are nowadays.

It was like a phone only when closed. Made sense that way.

In 2007, Nokia E90 had a display that was almost like "retina", 219 DPI. The web browser was also usable at the time. It had even Flash player.
> is the increase in sales + ad revenue minus the development + media + online distribution costs higher than the profit from newspaper sales - print costs + ads + distribution costs?

If I understand your point, that's specifically not an argument I'm making. I'm not saying online is more lucrative than print, but that the relative cost to profit probably makes it look good, because you don't have to do a media heavy article, you can still do it the same as print (but including relevant external video clips is easy enough at little to no extra effort). At that point the development cost is the same as for physical media, but the delivery cost is close to zero (not really, but so far below operating a printing and delivery pipeline that we can probably agree it's less than 5% of traditional delivery costs).

My point is really "web delivery with subscriptions is fairly low cost, but also lower revenue. Any extra revenue we can get from this source will greatly affect the profit margin since a large chunk of the overhead has been removed." From that perspective, it looks really good, even if it's not currently delivering on the same level as their legacy operations.
https://www.fdic.gov/consumers/banking/facts/payment.html

First, I agree with you that programmers need more rigorous training, especially the ones who are in charge of safety-critical software. But probably instead of calculus, linear algebra, strength of materials, and thermodynamics, you need information theory, automata theory, combinatorics, and formal methods. But the "software engineering research" the article is talking about is not concerned with things of actual intellectual content like that; rather, it's concerned with management questions like bug triage and "adoption of particular practices".

Second, I don't agree with your prescription for emissions control software. The problem is not that too many people are able to write emissions control software; the problem is that too few people are able to write or read it, which makes it impossible to hold the authors accountable. If every car engine control unit shipped came with the fully-commented, compilable source code on a CD-ROM, and it was commonplace for people to patch it to reduce emissions or deal with unusual circumstances, Volkswagen would never have had a chance at sneaking its cheat in.
