There's a substantive difference between this sentence, and someone who is listed on a written, successful, YC application as a founder of the company. As such your comment is disingenuous.

I'm not going to look at the code, but this guy's head-bob animation does occupy a privileged position early in the sprite table:

Of course if that makes it a hint, then it suggests the sprite right next to it (the guy on the right side of the audience with glasses) is also some kind of clue... does anybody know that one?

Sam admits Jeremy was part of the Cruise story:

Jeremy Guillory collaborated with Kyle ...

Sam clearly has a financial interest, so I definitely would take his post with a grain of salt, but both sides agree that Guillory was a part of Cruise. This isn't a "janitor substitute" or some other pathological situation.
Thanks for this. This seems very plausable. I'm now eating low carb and shuning most vetegable oils. I do use Olive Oil and eat more fish. I use just a little coconut oil. Lost ~28 lbs and have not been sick at all since going ketonic. Still have to lose more weight. I do eat red meat and chicken, turkey. Cheese is a favorite and my bias is I don't want to have to give up cheese.

Canola oil was bred to have a 1:1 ratio of Omega 6 to Omega 3. It's low in saturated fat too.

For all the good things people say about the fat composition of olive oil, canola oil is probably better. It also has a more neutral taste. It's all refined though, and a GMO, things which some people don't like.

The validity of anything headed by rahm Emmanuel in Chicago should really be questioned. The same mayor who covered up the murder of an unarmed black male during his reelection, is now leading a team to prove systemic racism in Chicago. Where is the accountability for this guy. No one should be able to champion both sides.

The handling for modern Javascript development tools is superior than any other editor I've used, Vim and Emacs included unfortunately. I use Vim for everything, except JS development. For that I use Atom.
It comes across as mud slinging. Like asking a rape victim in a very public situation "I know it is not really my business, and I do not mean to call you a whore, but how many men did you screw before this guy? And how were you dressed? And how much did you drink?"

You know, the most damning things are usually veiled accusations -- the sort of thing where it puts the accused in a position of looking like an overly defensive lunatic reading in something not there if they try to defend themselves while thoroughly dragging their name through the mud.

If it really doesn't matter to you, leave it be. Your curiosity does not have to be satisfied. Since he has stakes in this and this is apparently idle curiosity on your part, it just looks bad.

(I don't really care. I have zero skin in this game. I am just hoping that answers your question. I am weird like that about certain things. Shrug.)

It almost feels like a claim that it is safe to put lead into gasoline.
Another problem is people will simply lie about it in an encounter. How can justice be served when lies were told? And every lie told means the people telling the truth have a harder time. It's the "dindu nuffin" phenomenon. Holds true for false rape claims and really everything like that. It hurts the real victims more than anything. And if you're wondering if people will lie about encounters with the police, plenty of examples. A MASSIVE one that destroyed a town was Dorian Johnson, the friend of Michael Brown. He lied and that a huge catalyst of the ferguson firestorm. Later on he recanted because well forensics and other, more credible witness testimony.

If you want to believe Dorian Johnson, Michael Brown and he were just skipping along from market talking about Jesus when the cop grabbed Michael Brown from the inside of the car, then got out, and shot Michael in the head when his hands were up (or running away)

People LIE, and it's rampant.
I wonder if Sam actually wants to torpedo the deal. Sam is experienced and hopefully wouldn't let emotions get the best of him in a business situation. And I can't imagine GM wants to get involved until the conflict is resolved.
I've found that when pasting in huge files, disabling syntax highlighting makes a big difference. In fact, if you simply open a sufficiently large (I haven't bothered bisecting the size, but a few megs works) xml file, Atom will disable syntax highlighting by default and the performance will be slow but still usable. If you paste in the contents of a large xml file, syntax highlighting is not disabled and the editor either hangs or crashes, in my experience.

I don't see how you could work with a growth team on the side but if you are searching for a website with existing traffic maybe you could do marketing for a popular open-source project you like. It's not the ideal solution you described but it would allow you to learn marketing, even if it's by yourself. And you won't even have to make a product.
Can't see any mention of what Jeremy did for Cruise apart from help find an office, he must of done something else? Would like to hear the other side of the story tbh.

Wondering if the risk Jeremy posed was identified in the duedil at any stage for previous rounds, and if the risk was identified if it was used as leverage for lower valuation at all, or if it was not identified or underestimated. Would of thought seasoned investors would of wanted to snub out any future issues like this before handing large amounts of money over.

Nifty because it is distributed, works in any metric space where voronoi regions make sense (XOR and non-euclidian ones as a start!) and easy to make into an online algorithim that updates as nodes join and exit.

basically:

given a center point $center$
given a list of candidate points $candidate$
to output a list $peers$

sort $candidates$ by distance from $center$
remove the closest candidate and add to $peers$ (it will always be a delaunay peer)
for $c$ in candidates:
if any member of $peers$ is closer to $c$ than $center$ then reject $c$
else add $c$ to $peers$

essentially this generates most of a delaunay triangulation, and you can quickly find the voronoi generator of a given point by greedily traversing the resulting graph.
Just flag the article. There will be other outlets carrying the story.

We need to eat to survive. Animals/plants/bacteria etc. need to eat as well. Why is killing/damaging plants more acceptable than killing/damaging animals? Why do we want to kill viruses that are eating our bodies? How many insects did you kill on the way to work today and didn't even notice? Simply no good answers :-( Hence cyberspace vs meatspace etc.

I'd rather have each module have its own dependencies as subdirectories, sort of like node_modules. Everyone resolves paths from cwd.

If someone wants to share the same jquery across subdirs, I'm sure http redirects could be configured. Or alternately some sort of corporate versioning convention that developers can expect to have with absolute paths. Certainly better than ../jquery.

I dunno. Some of them clearly are because you can see they have moles in the same place and stuff like that, but a bunch leave me dubious. For example, that woman with the dyed white hair: the hair looks much frizzier/curlier in one than the other. And some I wonder how the face algorithm could possibly have matched them up - the guy in the parka vs the soldier don't even have the same facial hair, never mind how the parka fuzz obscures most of his head. (And you can't see more than a quarter of the next woman's face!) I wonder how much of this matching was manual.
So I looked for a random photo on my phone and fed it a picture of a spot my leg that I'm keeping an eye on. Close-up of a cat apparently. Damn these hairy legs.

> Why waste everyone's time correcting stock accounting if the stock is effectively worthless?

If you know for sure that the stock is effectively worthless, obviously there's no point.

If the stock might be effectively worthless, or might not, then there is a point: you are establishing your claim before its value is known. That puts you in a much better position to rebut accusations that you don't really have a valid claim but are trying to milk it for whatever you can.
Wow, that's actually not a bad idea! Maybe I'll reach out to open source teams and hopefully help them get more downloads/traffic.
There's no evidence yet that humans are sentient either. It's all wild speculation. Many complex behaviors observed in humans have been reproduced with very simple algorithms.

Think of the canary as the last line of defense, not the first. You always aspire to deploy zero bugs into production, through good testing and other QA. But if a problem happens, you want to limit the impact as much as possible. Affecting one site isn't great, but there is enough redundancy that overall service should be unaffected.

It's definitely an outdated definition that comes from the mindset that QoS means shaping traffic according to what protocol it uses. That's far too narrow a meaning, and the technique of explicitly classifying traffic is mostly obsolete given the availability of AQMs and FQ that need little or no configuration.
Lessons on How to Start a Hard Tech Startup, with Sam Altman
Maybe I'm just not being sensitive enough, but I don't read my previous comment as being an "attack", nor even rude (maybe a little blunt).

I was (attempting to) point out that a policy such as "don't downvote comments just because you disagree" can only work if either the entire community agrees, or if the people who run the community dictate it. Here on HN, neither of those is the case, therefore while we're all free to follow that guidance if we prefer, posting a comment asking other people to do it isn't going to change much.
I am totally okay with you being not happy with eating things live. But I will suggest that you be careful with basing it on intelligence. That framing opens up weird things like "Maybe it is okay to eat mentally retarded humans."
Every language and platform ever has had serious problems with multiple library versions. Anyone who has used an OS without a package manager knows this. I won't claim that npm doesn't also have problems, but at least its problems are different. Humanity can survive the existence of more than one paradigm for dealing with versioned libraries.
Agreed that this should be built in. I've been using https://github.com/atom-community/sync-settings which stores everything in a gist and has worked out reasonably well so far. The pain points are that you have to manually set it up the first time with the gist id and (optional) private api key, and backups have to be triggered manually.
I mostly just think they look cool :)

Yes, I'm eager to risk my life on self-driving car failures; it would be a tremendous step up from risking my life on human drivers (including myself!) as I do on a daily basis.

As an industry, we hadn't put down on paper what it means to build, execute or discover a container.

If you wanted to sit down and write software to build or execute a container, there wasn't a spec to follow or a checklist of the features you needed to support. Basically, you had no idea if what you wrote today would continue to work in the future. Or if someone else constructed a container, that you could run it.

I'm glad julia was useful for you guys. Of course huge kudos goes to Miles, Iain and Joey (and the rest of the JuliaOpt folks) for building JuMP. I'm sorry you guys didn't end up being able to use it in production, but I can guarantee you that we (both as the open source community and as Julia Computing) are feverishly working on improving the language and tooling to get ready for a stable release. Thanks for being an early adopter!

No, it's not. The 'boot' in 'freebooting' comes from the Dutch word 'buit' which means 'booty', the 'boot' in 'bootlegging' comes from boots you wear on your feet (in the leg of which you could hide a flask of illegal alcohol).
I got the same response not really confident but think it's a cell phone. Mine was a cluster of little buildings with gardens on top. Your is a ketchup bottle. Maybe 'cell phone' is the default response when it doesn't know.
IIRC I tried Eclim a long time ago but couldn't get it to run reliably or at all (fuzzy memory).

Those editing plugins usually don't really wrap vim so all you get is "vim-like editing" or "vi(m) functionality" which often lack some of my favorite vim shortcuts.

I find it much harder to muscle memorize the differences between the real vim and the "fake" one, so I prefer the tools that I use side-by-side to have different key bindings (for example, I use the Emacs key bindings in Eclipse).
You've confused science for math; lose the word proof, it doesn't exist in science. Evidence shows that nature is uniform so it is logical to operate as if it is so. Science is not a belief system, it's a formal method of invalidating bad ideas period and fuck no, that isn't exercising faith. Faith means to believe something without evidence and we have vast amounts of evidence that nature is uniform so that is not a belief, that is knowledge. Knowledge can be wrong, but it's not faith because it's based on evidence.

Science and faith do not go well together, and nothing scientists do requires faith.
For small working groups that all trust each other (example: a network engineering team at an ISP with a bastion host that everyone needs to SSH into before accessing anything else), a really easy solution is to run an ircd that only listens on 127.0.0.1, only allows access via properly set up public/private key ssh shells, and have everyone keep a persistent "screen" (or tmux) session running.
Funny comment! Except this is actually usable by developers with non-expert knowledge of neural nets
assume for the sake of argument there is a constant amount of traffic. You can spread it evenly or lump it together. So... Berkeley has a large number of extra-busy boulevards carrying traffic farther than it would ordinarily have to go?

otherwise, what is happening is traffic is being discouraged/encouraged overall which has economic consequences.

Probably it's not useful to say things you have no idea about, such as to speculate on the experiences of people you don't know at all, such as me.

The details of course will be complex, but one study on one statistic (by an associate professor at CUNY reported on a partisan political site) doesn't challenge the phenomenon of racial discrimination by law enforcement and in our justice system, both of which are very well documeented.
This is a huge upgrade that is super welcome.

Recently (on 1.9) we have seen quite a few cases where we had "zombie" containers, these are container that can no longer be started or stopped due to cgroup misconfiguration or something along those lines.

The new architecture means that for weird cases like this all we need to do is kill off runc without forcing every container on the box to restart (by restarting the docker service which is what we do now).

It is also really nice that you can now launch apps on runc direct without needing a docker intermediary.
In astrophysics, voronoi tessellation is used for adaptively smoothing data to reach a desired signal-to-noise ratio while trying to preserve as much spatial/angular resolution as possible [0]. It is also used in numerical hydrodynamic simulations to dynamically construct the mesh of cells for the hydro calculations[1, 2].
