Wondershare Data Recovery Coupon and Editor Review
I did not read the book, but I think the book is not about becomming succesful but about getting to know your potential. Success and potential are related/connected but there is a huge difference.

Being able to help out your neighbor isn't connected to success in our society. I think a lot of posters in this thread don't realize the destinction between potential and success.

Abstract: This paper shows that the Malthusian mechanism alone cannot explain the
pre-industrial stagnation of living standards. Improvement in luxury technology, if faster
than improvement in subsistence technology, would have kept living standards growing. The
Malthusian trap is essentially a puzzle of balanced growth between the luxury sector and the
subsistence sector. The author argues that balanced growth is caused by group selection in
the form of biased migration. It is proven that a tiny bit of bias in migration can suppress
a strong growth tendency. The theory re-explains the Malthusian trap and the prosperity
of ancient market economies such as Rome and Sung. It also suggests a new set of factors
triggering modern economic growth.
I believe that the Yamaha CX5M (an MSX1 fitted with the same FM chip as the FB-01, marketed as a music workstation) was released in the U.S., and "across the pond" in general, I think it gained some traction in central and south america, though I'm not sure if the models used there were actually released domestically or imported by enthusiasts.

I can imagine a feedback system that takes the output of this algorithm and modifies the image slightly according to the error gradient to optimize the MEM-score of the brand/item being advertised in the photo. Then it could feed the new image back in and repeat like the Deep-Dreaming algorithm.

I was in the same exact boat and had the near same exact experience around that same timeframe. I did buy another one after the AMD buyout, around 2009 with a Radeon 5870 and it has been a really great card. I'm still using it today in this machine. The OGL support still lacks but not nearly as bad as '03.

That said, the ghost of ATI still haunts AMD. To buy from them next time I'll have to get a great price or they'll have to be way ahead of Nvidia which they were in 09 with the 5870.

Yes. Sounds like you are already using SNI without realizing it (if they are using the same IP address).
I partly agree... There are plenty of service oriented jobs where you interact with a lot of people that are at least a little better than working at McDonald's (which I did three times when I was young). I've also worked in HelpDesk, Call Center Support, general IT, etc. I know people that have worked as Servers, Cashiers and a lot of similar roles.

There's nothing wrong with it, though if you're well into your twenties without a plan to do better, and are unhappy where you are... should probably start re-thinking or adjust your attitude.

Having done the job, there are times where I do empathize, and times that I don't. It's all relative.

One of the reasons I like software development so much, is you gain so much variety in terms of domain knowledge that one wouldn't ever get otherwise. On the flip side, I don't think I could handle conversations with over a dozen people a day, on a regular basis, ever again.
Correction to article: "First Person to Hack iPhone Built Self-Driving Car"
Wine is a mess, to be honest. It's amazing in that it gets Windows applications to work on Linux. The first time I tried that, I was amazed and so very very grateful as I made a full switch to Linux one day without looking back (too-much).

But from a usability perspective, it seems to still be a "second-class" citizen in the Linux world for lack of a better way to phrase it.

Some applications create a separate set of "windows" folders, so interoperability between them is a pain. Click and drag support, just doesn't work properly. The folder structure thing seems to be really jarring for me, as I figured it would be as easy to use as Cygwin's folders on Windows, but somehow isn't.

Any who, it's not a perfect or exhaustive criticism, but Wine is still not a good "drop-in" replacement, even if it does amazing things.
I remember at university how, when attending the few multi-disciplinary meetings or get-togethers, I would marvel that these people - on the same campus! - didn't get together more often in order to share and stimulate growth or share strategies, which inevitably occurred during these meetings.

I wonder why a handful of qualified mathematicians couldn't get together and go to Japan to sort this proof out...
And that was the wrong approach to that "problem" as well
If it's changing so much my first instinct would be that I'm not standing in the right lane and look for another one. E.g. aren't you supposed to get a green card if you overcome a certain amount of US local investment? As an experienced businessman maybe that's a better way. Or maybe a politician could grand you a green card if you do enough favours for him (that's how I assume it works in some countries). The most obvious way often is not the right way.
Great article, why make a fundemental distinction between isa and association? any realtion can be modelled as isa.

Depends on where you live... In SF or parts of NYC, it'd be pretty hard to consider oneself Middle Class at much less than that for a family income.

Some places the median cost of a house is close to a million, other places it's closer to $100k... That caries across the board, even chips at a convenience store price ranges quite a bit within the U.S. ... which, frankly has surprised me. It's all relative.

Fortunately, I'm in a location where the relative pay for what I do, to cost of living is pretty decent.
I don't know, but for the sake of argument, I think it's OK to say no.

If I have a website that is reachable on the internet that hosts a wiki and logs access, does that mean I am doing business in all countries that have internet access? Can any of their courts compel me to disclose visitors from their country? What if I refuse to provide visitor logs, is it OK for them to block my site at the border? What about to order a private teleco to block my site?

I have opinions, but I don't see any obvious answers one way or the other.

NV lost their bet on Gsync, it's just not apparant yet. Intel announced they're adopting the tech behind Freesync for their own IGPs. Gsync won't hold up against Intel Kabylake's IGP + AMDs APUs and GPUs.

If the trend continues of Intel adopting AMD's open standard / libre alternatives to NV's tech, I'm not sure how NV can seriously stand against AMD + Intel using the same solutions. Intel IGPs are only going to get better and better and be more relevant over time, Broadwell Iris Pro was already impressive and Kabylake intends to take that to the next level.

Many of these conclusions aren't actually from archeologists. The actual research is often very explicit about what is unknown. It's just as you get further away from it that people fill in the holes with guesses to get a picture, tell a story and imagine what life might have been like.
If you want to run Windows applications on an Open Source OS, the Wine approach is much more realistic. It's also nicer because for everything that Linux can already do, you don't have to mimic Windows.

Anyway, desktop applications are not that relevant today, and most of those that are (like web browsers, developer tools) are cross-platform anyway.

In the driving class I took when I was 16, we were taught to always prefer crashing into another car instead of a pedestrian if there was no alternative - humans don't have crumple zones designed into them, cars do.

I would assume self-driving cars would be programmed similarly.

Another way to see this is that the 'branchy' version can have multiple loads pending at the same time. This is a big win for non L1-cached loads.

Cmov forces each load to depend on the previous one, so you will have only one load pending at any time.

With a 50% misprediction rate, the Nth load has only 0.5N probability of actually committing, but it is still better than just having a single load in flight.
That is true. But getting a car to auto drive by a single guy in a month is really super human level.

The real question is "would it be wise?" The idea that you can "no platform" your opponents indefinitely without ever engaging their arguments usually ends badly. If one side is opportunistically throwing together every single grievance (both legitimate and imaginary) and the other is totally ignorant of what they're saying and refuses to even talk to them, the side that runs away from discussion grows weaker while the other side grows stronger.

If you want extremist views to have free reign, then keep avoid them until they form a broad enough coalition of the ignored and disaffected to take power, I guess.

Yes, I had a 133-mhz 486 and had comparable or better performance than the Pentium-60s and 90s, but mp3 was a big exception (at least until someone made a non-floating-point decoder library). Doing that on a z80 would either mean some in-name-only z80 contemporary clone or external decode hardware.

Hmm, I think you're mostly right, but here's the thing. If you put consumer money in the bank, then it goes to investment in additional production. Loans to businesses allow them to staff up and/or purchase capital equipment. However, if in the aggregate, the base consumer purchasers don't have any cash, they won't be buying things from those businesses.

What you are saying sounds so easy, but if it were, there wouldn't be recessions or liquidity traps. You're right that production is key, but if the monetary system becomes friction in between producers and consumers, then problems can arise even if production is okay. I don't really see a contradiction here. Savings are the foundation of future wealth, but if nobody spends any money, businesses crumble, and capacity is lost. When people decide to spend again, it takes time for the economy to recover.

I used the beta for a couple of days but gave up because i wasn't able to find all the functionality i was used to from Oracle SQLDeveloper. Since i don't write much SQL but use it mostly to view and aggregate information, it's important for me to find the tables and views very quickly.
The beta version i used was a bit early i think and i will definitely give it one more try, since i like using other products by jetbrains, i think they changed a lot since the version i tried.

> has anyone done an estimate of the global significance taking into account the fact that CMS and ATLAS both saw the excess at the same place (~740 GeV)?

Not yet, and it's actually a bit tricky to think about how this should be interpreted. Since neither experiment alone provides a super strong motivation to look at 750 GeV (since their global significance is low), it's hard to argue that one experiment can remove the LEE from the other by fixing the search mass to 750 GeV. But IMO it doesn't even make sense to do this thing post-hoc; otherwise one could always avoid the LEE by "fixing your attention" on a single hypothesis mass where you had previously observed a local excess.

Now, suppose you had a (probably contrived) theory which specifically predicts a particle at this mass in a way that is totally non-negotiable, so that the only meaningful question to ask about the theory is "is there a particle X at 750 GeV?". In this case you can do away with the LEE and use the stronger local p0 at that mass. Theorists are already flooding the arXiv with such articles (and even have been since a day before the announcement... oops!).

But in the general case, really the best way to understand the combined significance is to combine the datasets from CMS and ATLAS in a fully correlated way that handles systematics etc, and then make the diphoton mass plot again with the bigger dataset and evaluate the global significance of the resulting bump, still accounting for the LEE. But this is a really big effort, since the two detectors are substantially similar/different in many ways and it takes great care to handle correlations etc between their resulting data. Something like this was done for the Higgs discovery [1], in a paper which you might recall made news [2] for having more authors than any paper in history!

This is actually pretty kewl. You could potentially branch the current CLI from the GitHub repo and add that functionality in. Ideally the flow would work something like the following:

1. Start a multipart object upload
2. Issue "Upload Part - Copy" requests for each part of an object ( http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/mpUploadUploadPartCopy.html )
3. Complete the multipart object upload

Alternative flow:

1. Enable bucket versioning
2. Download the parsed S3 objects
3. Start a multipart object upload to S3 with the specified target object as the object name
4. Reupload the parsed S3 objects as parts of a single multipart object upload
5. Delete the previous parsed objects once the multipart object upload is complete (a delete marker should be added to the top of the version stack, but the previously stored version should still be available if you specify its handle/version id).

Ask HN: In what way niki.ai and Operator can change future of commerce?
I use DBeaver daily and it is probably not the best tool in the lot (well, it probably is if we're only looking at free ones) but I have become quite accustomed to it.

That said, I use PHPStorm and maybe DataGrip will complement the knowledge of JetBrains IDEs.

I'll give it at least a few hours of SQL work and get back.

EDIT: Well, apparently I won't have a couple of hours fiddling with the tool considering that it does not really work as I expect it to.

* Added a MySQL connection, can't seem to be able to work with multiple databases unless I create multiple data sources. That's weird.

* Selecting a specific DB (what I don't really want to do) still shows me the wrong table list from a different DB. 'Forget Schemas' does not work. Weirdly enough, I can query the DB I selected, it just won't resolve the table names (and do autocomplete).

Though, it's probably just me having this problem since there's no way this would go through the testing phase.

EDIT2: The price is also way too much in my opinion. It basically costs as much as PHPStorm. Not sure why you would by DataGrip instead of Navicat.

Actually, as an executive of a company that opens a subsidiary in the states (in case your startup is a success and decide to expand there) you can apply for the L-1A visa which can fast-track you to get the green card (we are talking 6-9 months instead of 8 years).

There are other options available to you as a director/executive, so definitely check with an immigration lawyer if you ever want to go back.
Although your idea is absolutely terrifying, I could see it having some pretty entertaining failure modes.

For example: a sportswear company uses an image destined for their Instagram feed as input. It's a photo of a famous athlete touting their product. After they process the image, the output has a higher MEM-score—but only because the athlete is now dressed in the attire of their competitors.

The signature of flatMap is something like this:

flatMap[M,A,B](cc: M[A], f: A => M[B]): M[B]

So given that you respect its signature, M[A] is not necessarily a producer of values. It can be anything and it helps if you think about it not like a collection or a container, but more like a context. For example M[A] could be a function of type S => (A, S). And then you could map and flatMap on such functions to produce other functions. This is the "state monad" btw.
