No one was feeling excluded by that properly named variable (even if kinda unfortunate, but the most it can extract from someone is a smile), and certainly not the author.

Although current generation e-watches are so terrible that for all practical purposes nobody will want to use a watch produced in 2015 or before.

Facebook F8 Registration Opens
I think one of my problems with all of this is that many communities allow people with unchecked mental illnesses to continue to manipulate and harass everyone around them.

I ran a meetup group with a few other co-organizers and it's amazing the amount of abuse people will take.

We had members that would come into the group, harass the rest of the members and continue with inappropriate behavior during our meetups.

We had one guy that would come in and basically corner any girl in the group and ask them out. During the meetup he looked like he wanted to hurt someone (he had angry looks on his face all the time), and wouldn't really talk to anyone or get to know the members.

After confronting the member, it continued. Since I was running the group with other people, I told them we needed to kick this guy out of the group. They outright refused. They felt that we shouldn't be exclusionary and that this would be 'mean'.

This guy eventually left when he was trying to get into an ivy league school and he sent us a blank entrance form and wanted us to fill it out for him. He sent us all angry emails and never came back.

I left the group shortly after this because I couldn't be part of a group that didn't protect its members.

More communities need to kick people out for inappropriate and harmful behavior.

On the other hand, as is mentioned in the article, part of this may be just knowing that the actual engineering and processing power needed to produce a marketable product still costs more than feasible for an actual item that people can afford.

I make lots of analogies between the nascent consumer AR/VR sphere and the smartphone landscape in the early 2000's. I'm sure there were companies capable of building something like an iPhone back in the days of Treos and PocketPCs but just because you can draw it up and design it doesn't change the fact that the actual chips and parts weren't available at costs the market would bear until several years later.

I'm sure Apple had been working on the development which led to the iPhone long before they were able to produce an actual iPhone at consumer prices. This venture could just as easily be similar early development that needs to take place in order to produce an actual product once the needed hardware is available.
They need to allow drones too.

> In the real world, the answer to any given question to be just about anything, and nobody has yet figured out how to scale AI to open-ended worlds at human levels of sophistication and flexibility.

One doesn't have to shoot for the moon in order to find useful applications for AI or Cognitive technology. If you can restrict the domain of knowledge of an expert system, it doesn't need to be create 'open-ended worlds' in order to provide value. It just has to beat human effort, or be an augmentation to human cognition to enable scale, for it to be useful - or provide business value.

> Can you really say with a straight face that more than a very lucky small minority of the 7.3+ billion people can realistically pursue a lifestyle of altruism?

Honestly, I think the best thing we can do is to continue to try to innovate and automate. Global poverty has been dropping consistently for decades and that rate doesn't appear to be changing. I credit this to globalization, advances in technology, and relative peace throughout the globe because of strategic alliances and military stalemates.

The best thing we can do as engineers is continue to add real value to the world by automating as much as we can. Robots work for free, and despite what people love to parrot, efficiencies are enjoyed by everyone, not just the 1%.

In other words, simply contributing value to society through your work is altruistic. As opposed to those who don't work at all and contribute nothing, for whom I have very little sympathy or patience.
Wait, wouldn't the scarcity of oil force a premium on the price? Wouldn't a dwindling resource with lots of legacy uses and equipment requiring it command even higher prices than when it's abundant?
Not sure if your response is rhetorical or not.

1. I cannot.

2. I noted that in the first line that this was anecdotal. The implication being that other the comments should be considered just as highly and I offer nothing beyond what is commonly accessible on the web in terms of research, with N=1 additional observations.

3. Despite not being a double blind study(with blood work to corroborate with ground truth, what could in fact be a psychosomatic condition), I varied my choice of supplements considerably and noted those lacking in magnesium provided little benefit.

4. My experience fits what is known in the literature. To quote Carl Sagan,'Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.' but in our case, its effectively an application of occam's razor.

5. Finally, I present what I think is the best way for other people to test if my effect was a placebo effect. The slow absorption isn't nearly as dramatic as the instant with a litter of water. Try it yourself if you think its the case, (not that that will remove the placebo possibility).
This is going to keep happening. While I respect a project maintainers right to decide to what extent language should be policed in their own project, the pragmatic thing to do is probably just quietly merge.
I thought this was a decent survey of where we're at, but I'm not sure what to take away. I don't care for "opinionated" as a description of tools or code, nor its opposite. It doesn't really mean anything, in my... opinion.

Data point: I advertised a job on whoishiring and within a day had received 40+ strong resumes (and 100+ overall). I only made it through maybe 5 before I found the one we hired. I responded "thanks for hiring" to as many of the others as I could before I had to get back to my regular duties. Unfortunately, many got no reply at all. I would scan some the later ones sometimes just to see if maybe even better folks had applied. Yes, there were probably even stronger folks who applied later but I had to make a move and go for the earlier guy or risk losing the known (at the time) quantity. I'm sure this is pretty standard for most people hiring on HN. I wouldn't take it too personally.
Thank you for your comment. It was really well written and informative.

There's also Neuroskeptic's hilarious argument:

> As for the “excessive synaptic pruning” model, it’s very far from new: it was proposed in 1983 and has since been discussed in 3580 papers. So it’s simply untrue to imply that Sekar et al. are the first to shine light into a biological “black box”

Yeah, people have been running their mouths for a century proposing hundreds of radically different schizophrenia theories. It's different to propose yet another one, and to show that one out of the hundreds is genuinely part of schizophrenia!

Contrarianism for the sake of contrarianism.
This is exactly right. A quick search for the journal reveals that anything published in it should be taken with a HUGE grain of salt as "The journal's policy placed full responsibility for the integrity, precision and accuracy of publications on the authors, rather than peer reviewers or the editor" [1]

>"That's no problem of the Japanese, but of the immigrants. They're the newcomers, they're the ones who should be putting all the effort to assimilate into the host culture."

This rigidity and inflexibility is going to be the biggest problem facing Japan when they inevitability reach the population cliff. What you are asking for is unreasonable. There is no way immigrants can ever completely assimilate to that degree. The cultural gap and linguistic distance is simply to big. It doesn't help that Japan has historically been isolationist and based on anecdotal evidence, still seems to be pretty xenophobic. At best, you could hope for a compromise, where the immigrants do their best to integrate, and hosts make compromises and try to be more accomodating. You could try taking immigrants from nearby regions where the gap is conceivably smaller, but politics and history will get in the way.

Ultimately there seems to be no good solutions on the horizon. You will just have to pick the least worst from a selction of poor ones:-

1. Ignore the problem and see what happens.
2. Begin a reasonable program of immigration that suits Japan (there are number of ways to go about this), and deal with the problems that will come with it.
3. Try and hope for some technological breakthrough.
As if yours just did. It's still a comment and it is constructive in that it shares my thoughts. Imagine we're all standing around bullshitting; I think that puts my comments in the proper context. C'mon, let your hair down and say what you really think! Lighten up a little.
Interesting times for experimental Swift UI libraries coming out, with tcp-json-swift [1] mentioned last week and now this.

This is an excellent synthesis and transfer of related technology. Nice work! Some of the Swift- and NS-isms are tricky to follow without knowing Mac dev, and I'm still wrapping my head around how it all wires together, but especially the update loop is very clear and small and I think a unique use of Rx to blend into React/virtual-dom/Elm ideas.

My perspective is I am trying to bring the Elm Architecture to F# but started out porting virtual-dom.js on the bottom. It's early and ugly and just at the point of having to deal with patching children nodes, so parts of this are quite relevant. One avenue I intend to check out is performing set operations on a flat node list and using something like protocol methods on parent views to add and remove children, so that part of the code is definitely going to trigger some thoughts.

The dictionary of observables indexed by node threw me at first. AFAICT the virtual views, action types, and updates all compose, and then once it's time to do anything with real views (the patch operation in diff/patch terms) just that part is handled independently per node? (EDIT: Ah, I see the context dispatch is composed as in Elm, and only pushing down model updates is separate.) It's dead easy compared to the work virtual-dom.js has to do to index patches, index DOM nodes, and walk the DOM applying updates. This seems to handle all that with much less code, with a couple caveats:

1) The ability to reorder children is missing, right?

2) Any plan to support laziness to curb rerendering sections of the virtual tree? It's probably not needed for many apps, but for some reason the feature gets air time in discussions around React and Elm. (Looks like all observables get called
unconditionally once per update, too?)

This is a very well maintained and mature open source project. But allow me to say that I absolutely loathe Code::Blocks.

I am still at university and they make us use this for C++ editing. I have made it a point to not use it and instead have been doing all my university C++ lab work on gedit because I find it much less frustrating than Code::Blocks and also because I don't have the rights to install Emacs.

The debugger is a pain to use, autocomplete is dumb, and the interface is simply difficult to use. I remember I had a hard time making it not use XTerm as a terminal when I initially tried to fight with it. I simply gave up. I even found NetBeans C++ mode to be an improvement simply because the debugger was better integrated.

On the flip side the interface, however unintuitive, does look consistent across platforms and there are a load of tutorials about C++ on the web which use Code::Blocks because of its popularity.

Its good to see an open source project going strong, and it might be great for newbies at universities when somebody else sets stuff up for you, but for my editor needs, I would look elsewhere.
I don't know why others upvote, but I did this out of nostalgia. Back in my high school when I just started programming in C++, C::B was the IDE I used.
Actually, it says so right in the 1st note "Getting started":
"Click inside a new note and start typing. Press “shift+return” (⇧⏎) to create a new cell and use “backspace” to merge cells. That’s all you need to know to start using Quiver."
Feature-wise, it looks a lot like org-mode - hierarchical rich text notebooks with support for Markdown, LaTeX, and code samples. Advantage: pretty OS X application. Disadvantages: OS X only, not integrated with the full power of Emacs.
This isn't while high on ketamine, this is about the week following, when your brain is still feeling the after effects in a positive way. Proper depression fucking sucks -- it's not just about feeling sad, you get to a place where your body aches, and even getting the motivation to go across the room to get meds seems almost more trouble than it works. Depression is not just feeling sad, there are a lot more symptoms involved, and if it means needing a day out of seven to not go outside, that's still a lot better than only being able to go outside one to two days in seven.
The oil end game isn't that we run out; its we find something better (electric cars) and oil loses its value and becomes a stranded asset in the ground.

Good for humanity, bad for O&G industries.

EDIT: I'm fairly confident this is the start of the end. The US Congress extended the production tax credit for renewables for 5 years, along with Tesla's Gigafactory ramping up production, which means we're going to be awash in renewable-generated power and have the capacity to store it (in cars, and in stationary storage).
* Stress on the client CPU

Do you have any evidence that these smaller files stress the client CPU more (this is probably not an absurd statement, but I claim that one can only make serious discussions about this point if one has a computable (i.e. not only empirically measurable) metric that measures how much a client CPU is stressed by some file).

* proxy caching is harder

Could you explain me the reason for that?
Exactly - "I give head" is clearly a reference to Herod's gift to Salome.

> The thing about food riots is, they are over quickly because, starvation. So a very temporary condition.

Your answer to food riots is don't worry, they'll starve to death soon enough?

> And in this modern age of transportation there's really no need for anybody to go hungry. We can feed everybody. If somebody in North Africa is hungry, its their politics at fault.

We can grow enough food for everybody. We can put the food on trucks. We can put the trucks on roads.

Somebody still has to pay for the food and the trucks and the roads. And that's going to be significantly more expensive than locally grown food. For people who have no money to begin with.
The #1 Dietary Risk Factor Is Not Eating Enough Fruit

Also, the date on the publication is Mar 20, 2006. Seems odd that there wouldn't be more recent research.
Yeah, it's very silly.
Because people insist on posting dickish comments like "maybe they should just fix their problems" and then retreat into whiny complaints that they obviously didn't mean this for anyone who it didn't apply to, they just felt it was useful to poison the discussion by making uselessly broad comments.
Agreed but I doubt we are anywhere close to this. The majority of the world's critical transportation infrastructure is oil powered and the sunk cost is massive. Electric vehicles are only a blip. Oil has decades left as the "rate limiting reagent" of the industrial world.

This is definitely a buying opportunity for those with the money to make such investments.
5 Tips to Increase Retail Sales
I emailed you and was automatically rejected. Is the email correct?
In agreement with you - I'm not trying to really put down the medical establishment outright (they do a lot to resist quackery for sure!) but kind of deal with the lay of the land. I don't think going 'hippie' or all-in with supplementation in nutrition is really going to be a trend within the medical community, but I do think a lot of doctors tend to just, well, use the tools they have. Risk of bad outcomes is real, no doubt, and the US is quite lawsuit happy when it comes to medical cases.

I would definitely like to see more strong evidence regarding supplementation - actually, with a lot of different substances. In a perfect world the DEA wouldn't have the slightest bit of sway in dictating which substances can be researched in traditionally "proper" settings.
I wonder how the Saudis and company will respond once EVs become as reliable as ICVs? Mind you, I don't see an EV 18-wheeler taking over any time soon, but I can see an EV sedan becoming the dominant vehicle in most of suburbia in the next decade. I think their attempt to kill shale oil is a bad move. They should be focused on maximizing the value of their reserves while they have time to do it. A soft landing should be preferable to a hard one where most oil becomes more or less a junk commodity (excluding plastics).

Also, I wonder how does all this factor in with regard to other renewables (just solar and wind, no fusion since that's a crap shoot either way). Any ideas where that may lead?
