How is it any less constructive than the person he is replying to...?
By unexercised I mean unexercised. Stock options vest continually (well, usually monthly or quarterly usually, after the 1-year cliff); when they've vested, you have the right to exercise them, and they're considered your property. You only exercise them when you choose to, and it's at that point that you're taxed on the difference between the current stock price and the strike price.

Many of my coworkers would auto-exercise-and-sell their options immediately as they vested. If I'd done this then it would've added between $15K-$60K for each of the first 5 years, but the last year would've been about $130K instead of $350K (I benefitted significantly from the stock price appreciation of GOOG, even if I did screw up nearly everything tax-related).

I left Google because five things happened within a year or so: #1 I started feeling bored at work #2 My existing project ended and I couldn't find one that really excited me #3 I passed a million bucks in liquid net worth #4 The outside tech world started entering what seems to be a period of high uncertainty and #5 I started thinking seriously about marriage & kids and realized I only had a few years left. So, in the spirit of YOLO and with immediate financial concerns taken care of, I figured it was time to do some things I'd always wanted to do.
There was once agreement on what "high culture" was - classic paintings, symphonies, opera, and ballet. Those are the art forms that have stone palaces downtown. Those forms have lost some social significance in the last few decades, which means that the hangers-on, the gallery operators, art historians, and collectors don't have the status they used to have. The institutions with the stone palaces, especially below the top tier, are having some trouble getting contributions.

But not that much trouble in major cities. Even the Detroit Museum of Art just managed an expansion. The Cleveland Museum of Art is expanding. In SF, in the last twenty years there's been the new Asian Art Museum, the new DeYoung building, and the SFMOMA refurbishing. On the other hand, the George Lucas Ego Museum was banished to Chicago, and the Grateful Dead museum didn't get built. The City of San Francisco has access to a huge stainless-steel peace symbol, but nobody wants it in their neighborhood. The classic fine arts are still winning.

Good question. It might be considered a derivative work, but I think that would be a new interpretation of that phrase. Big-picture answer is that most people who write and interpret laws do not know what SHA-1 is, so current laws might not cover TPB with respect to copyright law. It might also be that technology makes some laws silly or at least much harder to enforce, and copyright laws might be one such example.

IANAL, but here's one argument against TPB: a checksum of a "controlled file" seems to me akin to the code name of a "controlled substance". If a guy tells you that if you want heroin, you should ask around for "wombats", and then you go ask around for "wombats" and buy some heroin, did the dude that told you the code name do something illegal?

Now what if he was just a robot that repeated what he heard, and gathered reviews? "I heard heroin is called wombat, and 100 people are happy with that information". TPB does a little more than that (monitor the number of seeders / leechers, which is integral to prevent fake torrents being submitted), and makes quite a pretty penny off of their services, as well.
This is just wrong. You can totally use managed mutable buffers that you overwrite once you're done. It's probably easier than in Java.
How would you verify the .se domain in the first place? I think both are not something we can verify.
It's really interesting to me that the top two comments on this story both wish Protocol Buffers were different, but seem to be asking for opposite things.

Your comment wishes that there was a pure-Python implementation that doesn't do metaprogramming. That would imply doing code generation, but having the generated code be more "concrete", so-to-speak (containing all of the actual implementation).

However, a different comment (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10762101) admires the thriftpy project which doesn't have a codegen step at all. This is in some sense the opposite of what you want: everything becomes metaprogramming.

I work on Protocol Buffers at Google, and I frequently observe these kinds of opposing feelings about how protobufs ought to work. One thing I've learned is how incredibly difficult it is to please everybody. Another good example of this is whether to be pure-Python: some people (like you) want that. But it's nearly impossible to make it very fast, and lots of users are sensitive to speed (you can find various comments and blog articles complaining about the speed of Python protobuf).
I actually have studied Japanese for a while and have no clue what you are describing as extremely long.

In hiragana you have 48 letters for sounds which in most cases are a consonant + vowel. Hence Japanese written in Hiragana or Katakana is shorter than it would be if it was written with a western alphabet. Japanese is probably not the language with shortest words, but neither are they exceptionally long.
Before Uber and Lyft, it was nearly impossible to catch a cab from downtown to South Austin, since everyone was fighting over the cabs and the cabbies would refuse to drive to South Austin. It was a nightmare.

Those city council members trying to make things difficult for Uber and Lyft need to be tarred and feathered.
It seems unlikely that someone so disconnected from society as to be completely uninvolved and unopinionated on the topic at hand would have created an account for the specific purpose of commenting on the story.

We are social creatures; we have a deep need to align ourselves with groups of others. And the evidence points to our having a deep need to argue as well.

Love the idea. But a positive part abut PH is that I can view the discussion on the product by people (sometimes) more experienced than me, and then decide if it is worth my time to install/test out the product. If feedback on OH is private that angle is removed.

But definitely back the idea - PH has become too undemocratic, and its obvious that if you don't have the right connections your product will never surface. I know people who've reached out to "influencers" on PH to have their product hunted by them.

"There's no way to determine good or shitty artist."

You need an expert opinion to see through the fake reviews and artificially inflated prices. There is a way. Among artists, it's generally accepted who has more raw talent, who's more prolific and so on. It's never absolutely clear but it's clear enough. As an artist, you work with these other artists and it becomes apparent after a while. Spoken or unspoken. Matisse respected Picasso. Picasso respected Cezanne. Cezanne respected Monet, and so on. Those aren't fake endorsements. It's not like a sport where you just follow a predetermined formula, add up some points and choose a winner. It's about perception, which is what artists really do. The painting is the end result of how that artist lives and perceives the world--that's the raw talent. But if you're not in that environment, you're not going to notice it. You get movements like Impressionism, where somebody like Monet earns respect from peers and that reputation spreads and it expands from there.

I found some mentions of "DrugSupervise" on a bunch of Chinese language sites, which lead me to find drugadmin.com. A google translate of the title tag tells me it's a "Home _ Chinese Drug electronic monitoring network." I found another website with troubleshooting instructions that claim .NET as a dependency and show a Windows XP task manager with a process named DrugSupervise.exe. That support website lists the owner as "CITIC Technology Group", which may or may not be connected to the state-owned investment group "China International Trust and Investment Corporation", which offers a bunch of cloud services through their various subsidiaries.

I also found a github repo with some C# code:

Good question. I don't know. I realize MPAA lawyers don't agree, but a crime like "conspiracy to enable people watch movies for free" seems like it isn't exactly the best thing to spend our limited judicial resources prosecuting, especially since it's been trivial to pirate movies for ages and the industry is still making billions.

Rail privatisation was a John Major initiative, not Thatcher.

Quote from OP

"The Italian firm Fiat bought the patents for the APT's tilting technology and used it to help develop its Pendolino trains, now manufactured by the French multinational Alstom."

Export of technological know-how is something of a UK speciality (ARM chips, fluidised bed furnaces for efficient combustion of coal &c).

"A six-car APT, including a driving trailer and buffet carriage, is in place at Crewe Heritage Centre. It's clearly visible to passengers passing by on the adjacent West Coast Main Line where it ran for a few months."

I go through Crew on a regular basis, and the APT is easily seen from the track. Along with the rather impressive dents along the side of the coaches resulting from a failure of the tilting mechanism.

"How lucky I was to be running a startup company now rather than two decades ago."

In some ways, it's harder. Two or three decades ago, there was a huge software vacuum - there were obvious niches no one had filled yet. If you could build it, they would come. Now, there's something for almost every niche, no matter how obscure. Also, the price point for software is way down. People complain about $5 now, when they used to be willing to pay $95.

Yes, today anybody can do a startup. There's even "Startups for Dummies"[1] It's easy to get the component services, from hosting to credit card processing. So everybody is doing it.

Most phone apps lose money for their creators. Small ad-supported sites are much less successful than they used to be. It's worse than starting a restaurant, the previous way to spend time and money and go broke.

Yes, there are big winners, but not very many of them.

Arguably micromanagement can be beneficial provided it's used effectively. What the article outlines are mostly examples of flagrantly poor micromanagement.

With hard-to-elucidate projects, it's probably not possible to have everyone precisely on the same page, especially in a large organization.

I'd say good micromanagement is best employed as a last line of defense against work that, for whatever reason is not living up to the vision or ideals of the project.

Good micromanagement is also not judgemental, and doesn't involve the micromanager being an asshole to people.

> The #1 selling JS book is (was) literally called "JavaScript: The Good Parts". It teaches "methodological guidance" for writing JavaScript programs. Just as modern C++ books teach the "good parts" of C++.

I'm talking about guidance from the language itself, not external parties. For instance, C++ templates don't provide such guidance - it's very difficult for C++ compilers to tell you where and how exactly you're using templates wrong. On the other hand, C++ destructors do provide such guidance - just put all your finalization logic in destructors and you're done.

> That's (a) not true, with the static resolution semantics in modules

Even with strict mode and statically resolved imports, JavaScript requires extremely defensive programming to get useful diagnostics when anything goes wrong beyond using identifiers not in scope.

> (b) to the extent that it is true is mostly a criticism of dynamic typing

Python (not to mention Scheme, which JavaScript is allegedly inspired by) is dynamically typed, but does a much better job of treating nonsensical code as an error.

> Memory safety? GC?

It's true that garbage collection makes memory management a non-problem in the vast majority of situations, but it doesn't even begin to address managing other resources. Unfortunately, a program whose only avilable resource is memory (and perhaps the standard streams) is nothing but a fancy calculator.

RAII is a comprehensive solution to a wide class of problems that includes memory management as a special case, so I think C++ wins this one.

> A module system (as compared to #include)?

Of course, you're completely right about this.

> Dynamic typing?

I can get exactly as much dynamic typing as I need in C++ programs, without affecting the parts that are meant to be statically typed.

That explanation only makes sense superficially... why wouldn't they just legislate privacy, or invest in online systems that are inherently private? (client side crypto and whatnot) -- it's by no means infeasible.
Why can't we have an alternate hierarchy that is not controlled by ICANN? Parallel .com root servers and any other gods we want.
It's true - there is a time and a place... and a cost. Plan A is to avoid the need to micromanage. Plan B may be micro-managing, but in my book that's trading good will for short term results. This works when you maintain a high level of good will with your team, and doesn't when you're always optimizing for short term results.
It's ridiculous the way they hand out the ability to make comments. These days, the comments are so watered down many of them are mostly useless. "Tell us about your process"..."tell us more about onboarding". Comments are filled with marketers and friend of friends egging things along without substance. It's hurting the site - if they don't see this they are really missing the boat.

That being said, it's sad to see people rip on others sites/ideas blatantly. OpenHunt should quickly come up with an original design and find something unique in their approach.

The key is "forall f". That is, this must hold for all functions. In a constructive world, the set of all functions is finite. There's an existing set of known functions on the object. Any new functions must be created using those functions, so if the known functions have that property, so must functions built from them.

The key idea is that new functions can't look inside the object directly. Think private data and function members in C++. So two objects may have different internal representations, but if the exported functions won't let you distinguish them, you can treat them as equal.

Kill Your Airbnb's Hidden WiFi Cameras with This Script
It seems that as the the modern world has made it easier to produce art, the average person's mind commonly turns art into some sort of demarcation problem. More people appear to struggle in differentiating art from pseudo-art.

Perhaps they think of pseudo-art as a simple attempt to rake in money from collectors, pieces made only to fill space in corporate office parks, or work they could "get from any art student." They become wary, as in their mind they don't want to be conned by a pseudo-artist or amateur.

Of course, that mindset assumes that pseudo-art exists or at the very least acquiring it is prevalent threat.

One popular and respected local artist (now owner of several galleries bearing his name) once told me, "I have to finish one painting a day to support myself as an artist." Are those paintings pseudo-art because he intended to make profit off something he knew would sell? I struggle to think of people who know his work and wouldn't consider it "art" or him an "artist."

Is the corporate sculpture fake simply because of where it's displayed or who contracted the artist?

Just because the student's name isn't popular or their skills are still lacking refinement, should they be denied the ability to become a master? If they do manage to make that transformation and their early work becomes more valuable than ever, why only then is it not pseudo-art?

Obviously, I'm not asking you to answer these questions or even acknowledge their relevance. It's just sort of a train of thought your comment kicked off.
My best remedy for this is to assertively establish and enforce temporal boundaries.

Track the time and say its "just for your own diligence".

An attitude of acknowledging there is always a clock running and you engage with how you allocate it has, in my experience cuts through this kind of poor teamwork quickly.

You never say they aren't important or you don't have time, you just make it explicit how much time and how often that liberty, which they are always free to take, is being invoked. In a way you value them more by committing your undivided attention.

This response is analogous to when people look at the health information on a snack and think " maybe i ought not eat the whole box in a sitting ". They are still free to do so, but the information makes the responsible and foolish choice more apparent.

At its core is teaching a new level of conscientious relationship with professional engagement. You're helping them grow as a human while maintaining dignity and encouraging a more intentionally sincere and personal relationship.
That's a fair point.
