I think the biggest benefit of compiling to C is that you can output comments about which C sections correspond to which lines in the higher level code, and then you can use step-through debuggers to see why your emitted code isn't working right.

You don't have to deal with all the idiosyncrasies of C, because you can restrict yourself to a small subset of C that is straightforward and easily understood.

Since the prices are the same for mostly everything, then it's even more imperative to make sure you get your 2% back, otherwise you're just subsidizing other people's credit card rewards!
Thanks for the clarification. I was going to ask if this meant that for merchants there would also be additional fees on top of the interchange rate, but already saw your other comment stating this...
>Are personal attacks, doxing, trolling and slurs part of their daily routine they will be seriously inconvenienced by inability to use them?

Just because they don't agree with having CoC doesn't mean they do anything CoC disallows. The same with people fighting for free speech or freedom of association - at least one of them is not a hate speech using KKK member.

Nice passive-aggressive personal attack though. Maybe CoC isn't that bad idea after all.
To be fair, I do see where s/he is coming from, it does get thrown around a lot here. Not sure it deserves all the downvotes it's getting.
The self-righteous know-it-all tone is annoying.
I'm not sure eecks is really being entitled, I read it more as (s)he's referring to the often heard remark (here) about any kind of thing that shuts down that is free: "You should have paid for it, use service xyz that is paid and they won't shut down". It is more prevalent in the online business of course, but happens in offline as well.
Simply, aircraft engines are designed to be able to produce a lot more than their "fair share" of the thrust needed for flight.

In the case of a twin engine aircraft, if one engine fails the other has to be able to compensate so the flight can continue safely, especially at takeoff when the plane is at its heaviest. Twin engine aircraft can easily fly with one engine out but the additional drag imposed by the ferried engine can reduce the ability for the flight to continue under the power of one engine.

Ask HN: What sucks in the project management software you use?
I'm thinking about building a simple project management tool, since Basecamp did't really work for us.

Readmore - http://www.readmo.re - Amsterdam, The Netherlands - ONSITE

I'm a developer at Readmore in Amsterdam and we're currently looking for an on-site developer. We're a small company, so the responsibilities are varied, but initially you would be focused on our customer-facing website. We're currently growing and refreshing our systems, so there would be a good deal of both responsibility and freedom in the position. If you'd like more information please don't hesitate to get in touch.

Thanks!

Ahh, wasn't thinking of the drag aspect. Thanks!
Actually, there are not many, and some of them have misunderstood the story, so they are not totally right, making it seem the big deal it's being made out to be. I hope this line doesn't have as many reasons to stop between stations as British trains do, in which case the stopping is even less of a deal.
Yaaaaa, is this hacked languishing? I love you ALL, so nice, healthy,religious righteousness, one of my favorite subjects, and I would know BEST at it. Just some translation needs to be fixed. I suppose it changes your life and THAT is what count's as positives. Solutions that WORK for the Good. It has to, for our kids. All kids. They're the future. So let's start working like slaves again and get THAT done. Joking.
Get used to using 'grep' or 'ack' to dig through a codebase to find things. For example, if your task is, "Add a new button 'Find Vendors' next to the 'Find Clients' button on the Company Search report", I would:

1. grep for the string 'Find Clients' to find the UI

2. Note the URL that it hits when you click it

3. grep for a unique fragment of that URL to find where the routes are stored. Make sure you grep for something 'static', so if the url is '/search/query.html?action=search_clients' you could grep for 'query.html'.

4. The route should map to some code that implements it. grep for the controller or whatever else you find in the routes.

5. Once you've found the controller, something there should retrieve a list of clients. Find out how it's hitting the database.

Then you should know enough to tack on a new button in the UI and modify the controller to hit the database in a different way. Something as simple as 'grep' I never used in college or high school, but use all the time having needed it on the job for the past couple years.

It gets thrown around a lot but then the context is an entirely different one. A publication is not to be compared with an online service that stores your data or that you come to depend on in any way. Especially not this one.

So it makes zero sense to make that reference. You could say the same after you've eaten in a restaurant for 3 years, paid for your meals and then the restaurant goes out of business for whatever reason. You still got what you paid for and you're not entitled to a perpetual continuation of that opportunity to eat at that particular restaurant.

As opposed to say using a paid email account, getting it embedded in your workflow, spreading the address to all your contacts and then one day the company decides mail is no longer important to them and shuts it down. In such cases you could reasonably say that you expected the service to continue because you paid for it and make some connection (you'd still be wrong, but that's another point).
> I couldn't help reading the emphasized "types" in "optional types" as a yell for the Typescript developers

Dart was saying this before it was cool!

Historically, Dart was (in part) born out of Gilad Bracha's Pluggable Type Systems[1] paper, so the concept of optional types is the very heart of Dart, and was so long before TypeScript.

If you are shutting this to avoid the admin tasks like maintaining DNS or server updates, please let me know if I can help you. I have experience in these matters and I can do it voluntarily in this case.
Whether you pay for something or not does not guarantee that it will not shut down, it will simply change the odds that it will. Imagine if LCS would have made hacker news monthly a free publication, he'd have had to shut it down long ago. So in that sense paying for the service made it possible to last this long in the first place but that does not entitle you to expect the service to last for ever.
He lists a creativity issue in the article.
Trying to outwit a panhandler is really stupid. Such a situation isn't hacker news, trying to look smarter than everyone else isn't going to win you any points.

They either will ask for money again, if you're lucky, or if you're not, get angry and then you're in a confrontation with somebody who has a lot less to lose in a fight than you.

I would recommend against anyone doing this. The best thing to do is keep your mouth shut and walk away.

The opinion that the climate change is causing the conflict in Syria is quite speculative bordering to total whack concpiratory theory.

The weather might be a extremely tiny part in the events, but the whole situation is the result of political-, clan-, ethnical- and religious struggles for power that's been going on for thousands of years, and fueled by empire building super powers the last 200 years.

Yeah, most developed countries are like that. I remember visiting England in 2010 for my company work and the city buses used to ply even with two passengers on board!

OTOH, in the country where I live (India), private vehicles won't ply unless they are compressed upto 70% of the capacity! That's the BEP where they could make even a meager profit!

The Android team has publicly stated that only Java matters on Android and the NDK is only a means for games and code from other platforms.

Well the article referenced does say:

The authors acknowledge that many factors led to Syria's uprising, including corrupt leadership, inequality, massive population growth, and the government's inability to curb human suffering.

But their report, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, compiled statistics showing that water shortages in the Fertile Crescent in Syria, Iraq, and Turkey killed livestock, drove up food prices, sickened children, and forced 1.5 million rural residents to the outskirts of Syria's jam-packed cities—just as that country was exploding with immigrants from the Iraq war.

I fear their point that if the Chinese are banning people from using WhatsApp that we should watch out for Cameron trying to do the same may be fair enough.
I heard Dart before, but didn't know it's created by Google until now. I am a fan of Go. I like goroutines and channels.

"start journey" sends me back to login in a loop, even after I've signed up.
I got your meaning.

I liked Dart enough to give a talk about it at the local Google user group a year or so ago. Sadly, I haven't touched it since; less because I fear that it's a dead/failed language, and more because I simply haven't found a use case for it where a language I already know better doesn't do an acceptable job.

We (at another supplier) work with 2 types of LUT's: index and interpolation. The "index" ones will return, indeed, only values calibrated by the car maker or the subsystem supplier and nothing else.
Interpolation lookup tables can compute values "in between" the calibrated values, based on not so complicated formula and the input values.

Having this type of computation saves lots of CPU cycles and there's nothing wrong using them. Believe me, there are a lot of models computed in real time, so saving some cycles on maps is quite allright. CPU load is high, as nobody ever will pay for an overkill CPU for a specific application with lower requirements. Modern single core TriCores from Infineon run at 120-150-180 MHz. Maximum CPU load (reached in regeneration or other calculation intensive activities) can go up to 85-87%. You can't go higher MHz with single cores as the heat is not manageable. So future cars (2016+) are setup to use new TriCores with multicore architecture. More complicated to program (to really run on multiple cores, not just use one), and still this new power we get will not be wasted by removing LUT's.

Since LUTs are also calibratable, you can have same model on very similar engines, but with different calibration maps (slightly adjusted to match the engine) => high reusability of code.
Facts about AWS (Infographic)
On the one hand, I agree with you. I've never had to solve a program like this and I doubt I ever will. On the other hand, I do understand the theory behind asking it in an interview.

Imagine that you're interviewing a prospective player for a football team. As a test, you ask the player to climb a single flight of stairs in a minute. Now, this is obviously a stupid test. There are no stairs on a football field. David Beckham never won a game by being the first guy to the top of a flight of stairs. No play will ever involve the player climbing stairs.

Yet, despite all that, I wouldn't hire someone who, after sixty seconds, was only sitting half-way up the stairs, panting for breath.

Now, whether the primes problem is similarly a trivial task that any competent program can effortlessly solve is a matter for debate.
From an asymptotic complexity viewpoint, I don't see any difference between the two algorithms (AD versus building an expression tree and doing it symbolically, then evaluating). Both are linear in the "size" of the expression. So I don't understand what you mean by "quickly explodes".
We didn't like any of the options out there, so we rolled our own to get the features we wanted: Slack integration, designed home page with our logo and core purpose on it, integration with our shared Google Drive files.

The thing that sucks about it is that it was a home-built thing. It's really rough around the edges and in order for it to get any better, someone on the team would have to stop working on product, so it rarely improves. I'd love to switch to something out there, so that I'm paying for a team whose sole focus, full time, is to constantly make it better.
The big downside of it is though that your stuff is potentially stored on someone elses pod - okay, you can create your own server for the pod etc but this won't help you if messages from you are insecurely stored on some strangers server.

The solution would be to (somehow) introduce asymmetrical encryption for the content.

> The more you want your code to be small, the more you're gonna need a programming environment (language/API/runtime/framework) doing things for you under the hood. And there's nothing wrong about it!

Or have your code do one thing and only one thing, a single purpose, with clear, well defined interfaces and then compose things doing only one thing to a bigger thing that you can reason about more easily because the interfaces and processes are well-defined.

One thing I've seen too much of in my professional life is complex projects trying to do too much, with ill-defined roles and implicit, poorly documented interfaces.

Simplicity of a language works well as long as your projects are kept simple. You can build fairly complex solutions by composing multiple simple projects with well defined interfaces.

I think we agree that simplicity of a language works less well when the scope of a single project is too large and too arbitrarily defined.
Having worked with a large code base, maintained over a period of time (25+) by multiple persons has learned me respect and that even old code have a value in virtue of being running without problems over time. A piece of software that is running without problems has a value in itself that have to be taken into account when considering the cost of maintenance.

Respect earlier developers and try to minimise _unnecessary_ changes that break version control history. Did earlier developers use names you don't like? Formatting you don't like? InconsistentCamelCasing or other_naming_paradigms you don't like? Let it be -- at least until you do a refactoring where _you_ claim responsibility.

It may not be a good point to uncritically and retroactively apply the good points from the original article in an old code base.

> All the EFF ends up doing is sounding like a propaganda wing of the state department.

However they end up sounding, the reality won't change that covert surveillance is not good for a country and its citizens.

> There is a reason Obama has to meet with the Tech Industry to talk about the spread of ISIS and other forms of lunacy

I'm tired of repeating this, but show me one incident, just one where government surveillance has helped stop a terrorist attack and I'll be all in for your surveillance. The reality is that the terrorists of Paris attacks used plain-text SMS to communicate, which shows how ineffective our intelligence systems are.

All that is going to happen with covert surveillance is just more harassment of innocent citizens. What's the guarantee that the agent doing the surveillance is honest and sincere and won't take undue advantage of the data gathered from surveillance?
Government should be an organization serves people rather than trying to control people and limit what people can say or do. If government try to do such things, sooner rather than later, government will create dissent with the people. Without a free society, we won't be able to be awesome. Government's job should be to ensure that everyone gets their basic human needs/rights such as good education, healthcare, maintain fair law and order etc. These acts will create good citizens who will to do greater good for all of humanity. Currently the situation is alarming in many countries including china, usa, north korea etc. I think Croatia is a good model as they have a great society as a result of good education system.
As mentioned elsewhere, they're not closing the line, just this station.

It's also important to point out that it's not uncommon for Japan high schoolers to travel far to attend the school of their choice. So it's very likely that there's a high school in or near the village that most of the other kids go to, but this girl is attending a different one.
