Usually what I look for is a description of the project. I don't know what an "Orleans Actor Framework" is. The GitHub link gives me a README with a description and links to examples. The Gitter link is a bunch of people who already know about the project talking about details of it, which is harder to learn from I think. (Right now there are people comparing it with "SF". Not sure what that is.)

If there were something like Gitter that showed README.md and the chat room and not the code, then yeah, that's probably a better home page.
It might be a hardware flaw/hack what the company they contracted with had exploited.
Combine them, at twice the cost!
I assume Apple already knows the hack/vulnerability. Apple should announce they know it, fix it, and give the FBI a big F-U.
I don't think many people realize how prevelant this is. PR firms try to move public opinion by making their clients interests seem like popular opinion.

Every year of delay in renewables supplanting fossil fuels means hundreds of billions of dollars to the fossil fuels industry.
the role of F-35 in those missions as described - staying high, coordinating the mission, can be done by stealth drone like X-47B and similar. After reading the article i got the impression that they aren't able to replace A-10 in those CSAR missions too. Mentioned some limited success with F-15/16 instead of A-10 reminds about attempts in recent Russia/Ukraine war on Donbass to use MiG-29 fighters (same gen as F-15/16) for ground attacks when Ukraine's fleet of Su-25 ground attack planes got depleted. The MiG-s, while being a good fighter plane, were easily shot down in ground attack missions - nobody can run high speed at low altitudes and not having armor is a strong weakness when low&slow - while also not being very effective because they lack good powerful auto-cannon (attempts to use intensively even moderate 20mm actually bends the frame :).
There's a difference between active and passive protection systems - similar to certain Lithium-ion batteries. A lot of the cheaper manufacturers skimp out on a lot of such components (hence why you hear of e-cigs blowing up, etc).
The world is not "Tomorrow Never Dies."
The article lists out several unusual practices. Buying bonds was just one of them.

The bond purchase would have been approved by the board which would have considered if it was a good investment, those details we do not have. Maybe they were tax exempt, highly rated, secured and carried higher interest?
That sorta works but some planning about how to grow transit down the line ahead of time makes sense, if for no other reason than reserving space for light rail etc later.

Otherwise putting a transit system in as a retro-fit becomes very expensive.
And I tried with my phone (wifi off) and went through the 2 step authentication. Then I get the same error.

So, kind of doubting its an IP range blacklist thing.
Farm subsidies are widely condemned, but their existence is explained through public choice theory.

Perhaps you would explain to which oil subsidies you are referring?
The WSJ editorial line is to get rid of all of the subsidies, so you can't fault them there. Unfortunately, subsidies have constituencies, and challenging farm subsidies is considered to be political suicide for both parties. Interestingly, Ted Cruz was able to win the Iowa primary this year despite being an advocate for abolishing farm subsidies.

Repealing farm subsidies isn't the best way to use your precious political capital as President. The fact that these programs are so hard to repeal is the reason why Republicans are obstructionists. A government program is the closest thing to eternal life in this world, so the best chance to stop it is at genesis. An honest leftist understands this too and accounts for it in their policies.

Also, it's not really true that oil is that subsidized in the US. Most of the headline numbers include general foreign tax credits and business expense and R&D write-offs, which have nothing to do with oil in particular, as well as heating assistance for poor families.
Yes, Android, with the use of the NDK.
Don't bother. Threads like this just become mindless ragefests from people with political axes to grind and sites like vice know how to exploit these feelings for ad impressions. Liberal doves also want anything to attack new weapon systems spending. Its an ugly scene altogether and accurate information and commentary about military programs are lacking.

I've lived through a few major weapons systems changes and its all the same. Heck, anyone who has ever worked on a large project knows this stuff is fairly common. A lot of people don't want this thing in the air, especially Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea. Its a very capable weapons system and fills a much needed role.

Its crazy a lazily sourced article like this could make it to the front page of HN. It reads like my grandmother wrote it, "THE AIRPLANE IS RUN BY A COMPUTER! TECHNOLOGY IS SCARY!" To compete on this level, automation and complexity are required. Its silly to think we are going to back to how planes were designed 50 years ago.
"Noessel posits that, because blue is so rare in nature there’s something fundamentally mystical, unnatural, and inhuman about it."

This is strange. First the ocean and the sky look blue. So regardless of whether they are, they are.

Second, there are blue flowers, blue birds, blue fish, blue eyes, blueberries, Kentucky Bluegrass, Blue Heelers, and Blue Tick Hounds. It doesn't seem more rare to me than red or yellow. Green is everywhere. But blue doesn't seem rare to me.

It is the second most common color in flags (behind red) for a reason.

it is the second most common color in logos for a reason.
I'm not an expert on either, but my understanding was that Vue's advantage over React was that since it had no virtual DOM you were free to manipulate the DOM more freely without running into trouble. Now that Vue has its own virtual DOM it is harder for me to see the difference from React. Many of the positives listed both here and on the Vue site could also be said about Knockout, which I still am currently using at the moment (though I'm likely moving to React soon).
> Unions in California were criticized in a recent forbes opinion piece I read for wanting to exempt union run shops from the minimum wage, but frankly, that seems like a sensible position to take.

I can sort of see that, because those employees (supposedly) have the union to take care of them. But if below minimum wage isn't enough to live on, below minimum wage plus having to pay union dues isn't enough, either. And "it's legal to do that to union employees but not to non-union employees" reeks of double standard.
If you trace this thread all the way back to its root, the guy said having tactile feedback will solve the problem of not being able to type without looking, and I said I have tried and it doesn't. Of course there are many ways tactile feedback can improve experience. But in any case, I don't think it's a significant change. Even if you could do all you mentioned it's just an incremental innovation. When iPhone first came out it changed everything by getting rid of physical keyboards because a "soft" keyboard that adapts to its container app is much more flexible than a physical keyboard. That started this entire app ecosystem. But I don't think these nifty little touch UI innovations will change anything further as far as iPhone is concerned. As an example 3d touch is an interesting and sometimes even magical technology but it hardly makes any difference in purchase decisions.
Poll: Do you use Docker in production?
Suggestion that solves your problem: don't use TypeScript without "noImplicitAny"
The first questions that one should ask regarding things like this are:

- How does this compare to other countries?

- Do other countries make use of similar lines of evidence in similar ways?

- Have other countries made the same mistake of over-interpreting the evidence and subsequently overhauled it?

The World contains a convenient set of correlated pseudo-replicates of western societies. Discourse in the USA often fails to make use of them.
So by your measure there shouldn't have been any restrictions at all, and you should have been able to build whatever you wanted with no oversight, inspection or requirements?
Simple, fundamental, and for a surprisingly large percentage of folks completely non-relevant to anything they've done in the past 5-10 years (or more).

My immediate thought is that if I have to implement a breadth-first search from scratch it probably means that I or someone has made a terrible mistake someplace.

Also, I'd want more information. Am I just getting some values then doing some recursion? How large is the maze? The stack? Are these spherical frictionless chickens or do I need to worry about real-world constraints?

Or for someone else's mention of the Nth from last item in a linked list, my first questions would be "Do I know the length?", "Is this going to need to be repeated?" and possibly "Do I have enough RAM available to create a ring buffer of N addresses?"
While the west has removed subsidies on oil mostly (but don't tax it either), developing countries over the world have spend a considerable portion of their budget subsidizing the oil industry.

Renewable energy subsidies are not even 1% of them aggregate.

Conservationists (or anyone else who objects) will have it easy. Interplanetary missions are sensitive to timing. All you have to do is disrupt the launch schedule for a few weeks, then boom, it's another few years before they can even try again.
The issue is one of scale. And if by today's tech you mean C++, it also has safety issues that become apparent at scale.
How does some politics not belong on a board that deals primarily with startups and entrepreneurs, neither operates in a vacuum and the availability of good staff who can afford to live where you want to set up premises etc is a crucial thing.

Where I live in the UK we have the fastest average internet speed (by quite a margin), top 5 lowest cost of living and excellent transport links, We have basically no external investment and that is in part down to politics.

You can ignore politics but it won't ignore you.

And who is going to do "that"? and what if those who are responsible to do "that" don't do that?
Then who is going to hold 'those' people who didn't do anything to hold those people responsible for the VW?
I mean somewhere down the line, the general public must become active and show that it is not sleeping altogether, if that doesn't happen, well, society as a whole has to pay its price, and this price generally is very big, it can be so big that society may be crushed under its weight.

My point is let's see how USA deals with this VW crime and the other important criminal called Saudi Arabia for its role in 9/11. The government and enforcement agencies have already shown that they won't punish them much. So it remains to see if the general public holds them accountable or not.

Ada Tasks also bear some semblance to goroutines. (In the sense that they share memory by communicating instead of communicating by sharing memory.)

It's definitely a nice and well-designed language IMO—with a share of annoyances[1] and flaws—but overall deserving of more attention than it gets. Lately I've gotten comfortable enough with it that I have been making a habit of reaching for Ada for side-projects where I would formerly use C. (For example, I'm writing a toy X window manager in Ada at the moment—using XCB from Ada is a little ugly at times but definitely bearable.)

1. For example, why can't a record discriminant be a range bound? Answer: standards committee didn't think people would use it. Of course, this means if you have an array of discriminated size, you can't conveniently have a type for a position in it. e.g.

type Thing_Stack (Max_Size : Positive) is record
Elements : array (Positive range 1 .. Max_Size) of Thing;
Top_Index : Positive range 0 .. Max_Size := 0; -- 0 = Empty stack
end record;

Fails to compile with "Discriminant cannot constrain scalar type". According to [2], this is because

> This restriction is left over from Ada 83 (RM83 3.7.1(6)). We considered removing this restriction in Ada 95, but ultimately decided that the implementation effort to support this modest extension would outweigh the (more?) modest benefits. Perhaps a short-sighted decision, in retrospect...

> As for why the original Ada 83 restriction existed, noone knows for sure, but it probably relates to the historical purpose of discriminants as only for controlling the "shape" of the record, rather than being seen (as in Ada 95) as more general type "parameters."

And apparently it got left in Ada 2012 also.

(For C people, this is basically:

typedef struct {
size_t max_size, top_index;
thing elements[];
} thing_stack;

but bounds-checked and without the annoyance of allocating flexible array members.)

All that is true, but I went through some interviews last year at Google, and honestly, you really can't afford to be thinking about things like this. Nobody is going to ask you to just implement DFS, but you may get a problem that essentially reduces to DFS, if you can see it. In my experience, you really will be expected to solve this problem at a whiteboard in 45 minutes. Syntax and so forth won't be an issue, but you can't do too much handwaving, you really are expected to write code that solves the problem.

If you have to stop and reason your way back through DFS, I'd say there's no way you'll get this done in 45 minutes. You need to know this stuff cold.

Rote memorization is useless, of course, because you won't be able to adapt or modify these algorithms. But there's a kind of memorization in the level of sharpness and mental prep you need to have when you walk into those interviews.
Has it gotten considerably worse in the last, say, 15 years? Or am I just more aware of it? (I am not a small business owner - I'm looking at it from the outside.)
Yeah I'd love to see the Vulkan approach taken.
As seen on HN again today [0], everything that law enforcement touches, turns to shit. They will take a perfect "gait recognition" system and within a month they'll decide it's too conservative and start dialing back the match parameters until they get a list of twenty suspects every time they use the system. Then whomever among that unfortunate list is least able to prove an alibi (i.e. the poorest person) will go directly to prison.

You're thinking of rye.
Bad evidence having been presented against them does not mean they are necessarily innocent. Their cases did not all hinge entirely upon this one piece of forensic evidence. Although what happened to them was wrong, pardons go too far in the opposite direction. Retrial would be far more appropriate.
I find it funny how many people dont realize the "your next interviewer is out of office so we are going to end early" is code for were have already decided to reject you so we dont want to waste any more of our employees time interviewing you. No company schedules a set number of interviews then decides to hire someone without doing every one of those interviews
I appreciated this description of the difference between American and Swedish tax preparation by some who files both:

Our US federal and state forms tax forms were more than 30
pages long last year, downloaded completely blank. During
the two weeks we'll spend in Wisconsin this summer, our main
job will be to get our taxes done.

I'll wade through stacks of bank and credit card records
line by line, documenting all professional income beyond our
wages and scanning for every possible business or charitable
deduction. Once this is done, we — like the majority of US
taxpayers — will hire a tax professional who charges us $500
to review and co-sign our work.

Tax-preparation services cost American taxpayers more than
$32 billion per year. My wife, Betty, and I each have a PhD,
but that's not enough to understand IRS instructions.
Finally, with a great sigh of relief, our marriage still
intact, we'll sign the forms and send them to the IRS.

Of course, despite our great efforts, we don't know whether
the IRS is going to be happy or not. We might get audited
and have to dig up all this stuff again, because the
government has three years to check and revise our returns.

In Sweden, the four-page tax form comes in the mail already
filled out. On a Saturday morning, Betty and I take our
coffee to the couch and review the forms. Seeing they look
reasonable, as they always do, we "sign" with a text from
our phones. In 15 minutes we are done. We don't have to hire
a tax consultant, and we avoid fights about whether a print
cartridge bought at the drugstore is a business expense or
not.

I wouldn't presume to know all the details of what is required for CSAR missions to make a blanket statement like "an unarmed drone" can do it. If the evaluators think the F-35 does it well then so be it. We can't fly a-10s forever.

I think it would be against Apple's brand image to publicly invite people to break their software, but your last point could be the case in a very limited fashion.

Apple has persisted its appearances in shipping stable, valuable software and hardware the first time quite well. No hiccups allowed here.

Admitting they can't catch every last bug before release would be killing this advantage in public perception they have over competitors like Microsoft.

The article said the virus was on "a computer system retrofitted in 2008 with data visualization software associated with equipment for moving nuclear fuel rods".

Control systems generally have two components; the actual controllers that interface with the machine or equipment and then an HMI for the operator to interface with the controller (ignoring completely hard wired systems consisting of lights, buttons, chart recorders, etc). The majority of the HMI software runs on windows.

Once an attacker is on the HMI system they can probably easily do anything the operator can do, and possibly have full access to the controller and make things happen that Should Never Happen.

I'll preface by saying I completely agree with the sentiment of the article.

However, I was taken aback by the author's refusal to try to solve BFS. To me, it feels like someone should be able to reinvent it relatively easy - that it's akin to a linked-list, palindrome or FizzBuzz question.
Throughout all the patent wars and all the rhetoric Google produced about competitors abusing patents, it was Google, as the owner of Motorola, that was the only company penalized in court for actually abusing patents:

http://patentlyo.com/patent/2015/08/agreement-microsoft-moto...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Corp._v._Motorola_In....

Sure, the lawsuit was started 2 months before Google acquired Motorola, and it was in response to an MS lawsuit, but the continued abuse of FRAND patents and the ensuing 14M penalty happened on Google's watch. Literally no other company in the smartphone wars suffered this fate.
Thanks a lot, I'm pretty proud of it!:) That's a good point, the version isn't really the important part, will do.

>> probably in assembly

>> wondering why it doesn't work now

Assembly is instruction-by-instruction, line-by-line.

Not that C++ is by nature an unstable language, but I'm sure the margin of error is higher by nature simply by not using ASM.

Please, correct me if I'm wrong.

I've often thought it programmers could be less afraid to code in ASM we would see the most incredible things on something like a PS4.

Of course, that's impractical as all hell due to millions of lines of code turning into a billion or whatever.

I used to use ASM all the time for Sega Genesis/GBA home-brew and what-not. I kind of actually miss it. :3
