I you've written advanced-enough go, you probably have a bunch of file that start with some C code before the Go code starts.

Go simply can't interface everything the way C does. Go doesn't give you the same level of flexibility either.

tldr: Go's great, but it's just not as powerful as C (unlike Rust or some others, which can do anything C does).
I think many theories start off at "spooky action at a distance." Imagine what Newton thought about how gravity works - two massive objects affecting each other for no apparent reason: spooky action over a distance.
The author got around it by using a completely alternate, but client compatible, Minecraft server: https://github.com/cuberite/cuberite
Information transfer was never a problem with spooky action. But if all entangled particles were linked by some kind of funky wormhole it seems a harder task to explain why FTL information transfer isn't routinely possible.
Is there any big difference from this vs https://swtch.com/libtask/ , which is a port of much of the same concept from Plan 9 - which again ties back to Go.

For the big brand TVs, yes. Most seem to have some set of Amazon and YouTube 4K support as well. My new TV is missing YouTube 4K support, because apparently they use a different codec than Netflix and Amazon.
Which is kind of the point. If people think that rolling auctions are better than a CLOB, they are free to set up exchanges that use auctions and see if anybody trades on them.

ULA's reasoning was pretty straightforward. The main reason they dropped out of the competition is because the bidding was to be decided largely on price,

The reason they had to drop out is because they're a space launch company without any goddamned engines. The chatter about the bid process is just the typical jawing members of the defense cartel engage in when they deign to speak of competitors. Sometimes they're even successful in reopening the bid process. [1]

My primary use case was writing network protocols (the stuff I had to deal extensively when implementing ZeroMQ and nanomsg). On one hand you want ultimate performance, i.e. no context switchers, manual memory allocation et c. On the other hand, you want the convenience of writing linear code without caring about what to do when function blocks.
It's not great graphic design, true. But I'll take it over garbage like grandparent's screenshot any day.
"We are redefining home"

Colonial anglo-american hegemony redefined home, the first two paragraphs start with how her brain had to be trained so she could remain relevant during the internet age and globalization. This is just a sad article about how people have to scramble after the capital that imperialism plucked from their motherlands, "liminal" a shitty euphemism for "unstable" or "my village's way of life wasn't efficient enough for multinational supply chains".

Ask HN: I have 1000+ dresses in my shed. What should I do with them?
About 6 years ago someone I know had a failed business venture; they had ~1500 dresses made in their own designs targeted at 'plus sized' women. They had family things come up and the whole thing died on the vine, but they ended up with most of the dresses sitting in storage.

A few months ago they asked me if I just wanted to take them off their hands, no charge, I just had to go pick them up. I put them in my storage shed and forgot about them until now.

They've been stored safely and are in good condition, but I think they might be of pretty poor quality generally speaking.

I don't really know much about dresses, or selling physical goods. I really took them on a bit of a whim and I'm not sure how much time I can invest, and don't even really know where to start.

So, what would you do in this situation? Try and sell them individually? Flog them off in bulk to an aspiring retailer? Just donate them somewhere?
My Raspberry Pi 2 is working great as a media player. I threw OSMC on it (a Linux distribution specifically for Kodi with specific support for Pi's) and it is essentially flawless. It has no problem with high bit rate H264 videos. The lack of gigabit Ethernet isn't an issue. 100Mb Ethernet can easily stream raw Blu-Ray video (not that I've tried that with the Pi 2).
I'm not really sure what point you're trying to make with your first paragraph. The regulations are going to change. The funds aren't prohibited from following the law! Investors will then benefit 0.2% less substantially from these funds, I guess.

As for the second point, how is that any different from rebalancing? Money added to the fund is used to buy the new shares. Money withdrawn from the fund is marked against sales of the old shares, no?

I concur it's advantageous they are positioning themselves as a state though. It immediately translates their military defeats into social and political ones.

> I'll quote Ellen White the prophet of SDA and its namer:

I don't see how that quote in any way contradicts what I said: the "seventh day" part of "seventh day adventism" derives from a belief in Biblical inerrancy, specifically the literal truth of the story of Creation in Genesis 1, and the "fact" that God rested on the seventh day.

> All Christian churches expect the imminent return of the Jesus.

Not true. All Christian churches expect the eventual return of Jesus, not His imminent return. There's a big, big difference.

> the reason that Catholics and most of the other Christian churches switched to Sunday

Well, the early Christians did it ostensibly because Jesus was crucified on a Sunday. But the real reason was to distinguish themselves from Judaism. And by the time there were "other" Christian churches the tradition had already been established for 1500 years or so.

> Once again, FUD.

No, these are salient issues for a presidential candidate. Someone who believes in the imminent return of Jesus is going to have a very different approach to long-term problems like climate change than someone who thinks Jesus may not be coming back for a long, long time (or at all). And someone who believes in the inerrancy of the Bible over science is going to have a very different approach to, well, just about everything.

7DA is a fundamentalist, apocalyptic religion. It's fundamentalist because they believe in Biblical inerrancy (that's what fundamentalist means) and it's apocalyptic because they believe Jesus is coming Real Soon Now. That's not FUD, those are simply facts. And they are facts that the American people ought to know if they are going to vote for a 7DA.

You're just stating opinions. Why would that be interesting in this discussion? This is the Internet, there's no lack of opinions. You haven't responded with proper arguments to anyone is this thread, which seems to be consistent with your comment history. Maybe all those people you're not responding to are also PC?

> It seems that the actions of the terrorists allow for a fairly easy us vs them categorization.

Why? For you?

> yet the terrorists all come from specific subset

What subset is that? Plenty of terrorism isn't based on religion.

> So there is some commonality between them [...]

And that is? Of course there's some commonality, but you actually have to specify which and why to have an argument.

> Ferguson doesn't shy away from putting light on it

What part of his writing does that? The part I've read very much paints with broad strokes and doesn't at all focus on "the commonality of a specific subset of terrorists". As you would expect from a history professor.
What a fascinating article. Thank you.
I'm sad that your comment has been downvoted. I was looking forward to a turn or two of the old "one thing you could do with a hundred billion of them is imagine what you could do with a hundred billion of them" etc.
The main reason is so you can statically analyze the template source code. For example, pair Gumbo [1] with an HTML-based templating language and you can identify every image referenced in the HTML and automatically coalesce them into a sprite sheet. You can replace dynamically-generated images with data: URLs and load the data at the end of the page, minimizing latency. You can validate your templates to make sure they never generate invalid HTML. You can run any inline scripts found through Closure Compiler or Babel to minify them (or, in Babel's case, support ES6 directly in templates). You can do CSS renaming automatically on all elements.

A secondary reason is to constrain your users so they don't end up writing constructs that will be impossible to manipulate with tooling. Early in Bazel's [2] history at Google, BUILD files were just ordinary Python, and you could use any Python code you wanted, and all that mattered were the calls you made into the build rules. This worked great, with people writing all sorts of list comprehensions and conditionals to minimize code duplication. And then tools came out to reformat BUILD files, and automatically query for dependencies, and detect dead binaries, and all sorts of other cool stuff. The tools were a lot more useful than the ability to include arbitrary code, but (because of the halting problem) they would choke whenever they encountered arbitrary flow constructs. So now arbitrary code is limited to the portions of the build system that explicitly allow it.

The EDSL approach (where you just use a regular programming language and a bunch of calls into the engine) can be a good idea, but you give up a lot in tooling. Usually it's most useful in the early stages of a project, where you don't have manpower to write the tooling anyway, and then becomes a legacy hassle as you assign more engineers, write more code, and get more leverage from writing tools.

To stretch your analogy to breaking point, the explanation that makes the most (least?) sense to me that I've read is thus: First, imagine all the coins have no mass. And a mischevious quantum cat either puts all the copper and sliver coins in the same bag leaving the other empty, or puts all the copper coins in one bag and the silver in the other.

Not knowing which placement has been done, you put one bag in your freezer, and drive across town with the other bag.

Then you ask yourself the question, or perform an experiment to tell you, "Which bag did the cat put all the coins in?", at which point you open the bag and find it full of coins or empty, determining the state of the bag you have, and the state of the bag in your freezer at home.

No problem, huh?

Except, if you'd asked a different question, or performed a different experiment, to tell you "Which bag contains all the copper coins, and which contains the silver coins?" - you would have still got a valid response, and found the bag either full of copper or silver coins, again determining the state of the other bag at home.

That's the nature of entanglement. Without knowing the state, the nature of the question you ask of one particle will determine what sort of answer you get, in a way that instantaneously affects the bag at home too. i.e. someone opening your freezer just after you ask your question will see the other bag in a consistent state with the bag you have.

That's why it's so gorram weird.

The problem with a FTT is that it is a cascading tax. Whereas a VAT or GST is charged only on the difference between input and output. I buy some wood for $10, make a table, sell it for $15, GST/VAT is 10%, so I pay out $1 buying the wood, and collect $1.50 selling the table. I only have to forward the difference, 50c, to the government.

With an FTT, that 'tiny' tax is charged indiscriminately all the way through the chain. And passed through the chain to the end consumer. So the market maker pays it twice (in and out of a position) and their margins are razor thin. So spreads will increase by twice the tax for starters. Plus you as end consumer will pay it twice (on buying and selling). So at a bare minimum that 0.1% will be 0.4% for an end consumer. More if more middlemen are involved in the chain, since it just compounds. What are annual returns? 4-8%? So we're talking about the government taking 5-10% of your profits? Does it seem tiny still?

Exactly. I'd argue that the majority of people complaining about Go being unusable for them because of the GC would actually be able to deal with the GC easily. I'm working on a soft realtime application in Go, and the GC has never gotten in the way.
It never ceases to amaze me how irrational most people are. On September 11, 2001 about 3000 people died in a very dramatic way, and the US launches the whole war on terrorism boondoggle, pretty much throws out the Constitution etc. But here 23000 people die every year, in a rather undramatic way, and not a whole lot is being done.

I picked up a $50 Nexus Player (Android TV OS) last month for this purpose. It replaced a first generation Raspberry Pi B that was actually pretty decent as a Kodi box (I used the Xbian distro).

So far I'm really happy with the Nexus Player. I like that it gets Android TV apps (like Kodi and Moonlight for game streaming from my desktop) and also supports Google Cast. It also has a usb port that supports things like keyboards, ethernet, external disks, etc with a usb hub.

I also strongly considered the Nvidia Shield TV (also Android TV OS). It's $200 with a lot better hardware, getting good reviews, supports 4k, and apparently can decode H265 in hardware.

What specifically are you talking about? Go can do syscalls perfectly fine, you can mess in your memory perfectly fine (even if you have to resort to the unsafe package), so what exactly is it where you think Go lacks flexibility compared to C? Because so far, your posting sounds rather hand-wavy.
The reason to not create a new template language is because they are a terrible idea that has lived this long since a) most languages lacked a nice multi-line string equivalent, b) XML, a great way to represent markup, did not have first-class support in programming languages.

Neither of these are true anymore, so it is time we let template languages go.

The essence of templating is string interpolation. That is what ERB, Jade, HAML and similar languages do. ES6's Template Strings are fantastic at this. They are multi-line, and they allow interpolation.

Even if we supposed that the notion of separation of view and view-logic was a reasonable one, the baggage that a dedicated templating language brings in is simply not worth it.

Here are examples of the baggage:
1) the choice of picking a templating language is almost of a religious nature (HAML vs ERB).

2) Custom syntax and needs for each language - the `surround`, `suffix`, and `precede` helpers in HAML.

3) Templating languages almost always reinvent programming constructs poorly. Greenspun's tenth rule is really apt here:

Any sufficiently complicated templating language contains an ad hoc, informally-specified, bug-ridden, slow implementation of a turing complete programming language.

These days I rely a lot on JSX, which is rigorous and catches errors, thanks to compile-time parsing, and well-integrated into the language so that I can use programming language abstractions without wringing them through ill-defined extension points in a templating language.
I was surprised. I had no idea typewriters were still in use, or at least in enough use to be sold new.

You're just not paying attention. They've wrapped up their investigation of the problem, they've conclusively identified it and figured out how to prevent it from happening again (both through more thorough part testing and through beefing up the specs on the particular component so it has even more margin in a "belt and suspenders" approach). They've bundled their mitigation techniques into the roll-out of the next iteration of the F9 (sometimes called the v1.2 but officially called the "FT" or "Full Thrust" version) which will be the version which gets launched from now on. They've done a static fire test on the first stage that has a planned launch in early December and they've done all the other prep-work for a launch then. It's very likely that if the weather cooperates they'll have a return to flight within about 3 weeks.
You should check out the idea of function structures. Functions structures are a symbolic means of representing the functions a electromechanical product must perform in order to do its job.[0] The cool thing about function structures is that you can go from a function structure to a simplified conceptual model of a product. For example, one can replace the function convert electrical energy to mechanical energy with a motor. Unfortunately, the same function structure can translate to many different possible products, some of which don't make any real world sense.

For instance, for a carrot slicing machine you might end up with a solution that uses the forward motion of the whole device in conjunction with an airfoil to create the force to cut the carrot. While plausible, this is not the best solution.

If some of these problems could be fixed, we'd essentially have a hardware description language for mechanical engineering. And with this we could do the same sorts of design automation the semiconductor industry has been doing except for mechanical systems.

"The theory holds that gravity is geometry: particles are deflected ... not because they feel a force ... but because space and time around the object are curved."

Can anyone explain to me why it can't simply be a force? If you accept that gravity is caused by energy and not mass (which is obviously the case), then I see no reason a photon can not experience a force.

So what is the reason to insist it's geometry?

And related to that, I still have never seen an explanation of how geometry is supposed to cause something to start moving without a force. Explaining how it deflects something, I get. How does it start moving in the first place?

The only explanation I've gotten is that things are always moving - through time, and the geometry just transfers some of that motion into physical motion. But that explanation is very very very lacking since all things do not move through time at the same rate (because of the various types of time dilation that are possible), yet the gravitational force is identical.

> "Libmill is intended for writing single-threaded applications."

You can do concurrency on a single thread. This is the message I find it hard to get across when explaining CSP concurrency libraries.

Some people argue about usefulness of such libraries as being not native and leaky abstraction. I developed Go-style concurrency "port" to Tcl:

https://github.com/securitykiss-com/csp

and it is one of few developed-in-house things that became the productivity booster in my toolbox.

The interesting thing about it is that thanks to the expressive power of Tcl I was able to port not only the semantics but also almost completely mimic Go syntax.
