Interesting that I've suddenly, just now, received no less than two downvotes on the above (otherwise popular) post and my post above it (4 simultaneous downvotes on just two posts), despite this currently sliding down Page 5 of HN.

To be legit, that's at least two separate people coincidentally downvoting the same day old posts at the same time, on a Page 5 submission.
God damn they finally added 'available' in 2014. I will never have to explain to someone who knew enough to run 'free' but didn't understand cache that the system isn't running out of memory.

Exactly. This is one of the main reasons why I encourage admins and developers to try Vi(m): There will always be a vi or vim installed wherever you SSH to, and you will be able to work comfortably on the terminal.
Apparently not, because "GNU is Not Unix", while Google deliberately marketed their language as Java to developers.
Really? Following your bogus argument, the next thing would be to feed the prisoners with bread and water - no law has been created to prevent hot meals, it's "just not something the prisons do anymore".

Prisons are entities which have the power to force human beings into their services - so society has to force the rules over them. This has nothing to do with religion.
Even just looking at the flow & congestion control by it self, it's not similar to TCP. Or at least the article didn't go into details.
How does the decrement and increment of the rate is being done. In TCP we have the congestion window. Which is increasing and decreasing as a function of the state of the algorithm (slow start, congestion avoidance) and the occurrence of packet-loss or perceived packet-loss by the algorithm.
In the article it's not clear how Ants are adjusting the amount of ants out there.

You could use (the compiled and optimized version of) the implementation we have in Scala.js: https://github.com/scala-js/scala-js/blob/master/library/src...
It is significantly faster, especially for arithmetic operations, and dramatically so for division, remainder, as well as `toString()` (up to 100x speedup). It also contains the unsigned variant of operations (for java.lang.Lond.divideUnsigned for instance).

Thanks so much for those very specific book recommendations! I'm working through "Discovering Modern C++" by Peter Gottschling which I'm finding pretty good. Those two books by Will Pirkle sound great and are now on my to-read list, I did some Googling before for audio specific C++ books but didn't come across them.

Also I've found some of the talks from JUCE Summit to be quite insightful.
> Not at all.

Then, as I said, the most distinguishing fact about these two is obviously not that their parents pretended to be Canadian.

There really is no point in arguing this since you believe the circumstances of someone born in Canada, raised to some extent in Canada, and having an affinity with Canada are analogous to someone who doesn't even know Canada exists, like a large proportion of that 7 billion you talk about.

BTW, did you edit your other post? Not that it changes anything, but I don't remember it saying "victims of not being born Canadian citizens" when I replied.

I wonder how close we are to diagnosing social media addiction as a legitimate illness. When I hear stories about people like "Mr Instagram" in this blog post, I really, really wonder... Mobile devices are turning some of us into zombies. It's like hypnosis.

I've been slowly purging my website accounts for a couple of years, and not just social media accounts. Early on, I was inclined to sign up and try out every new service that came along, but more recently I decided that if it's not a site I'm going to use frequently, I don't really need an account for it. A beneficial side effect: far fewer logins and passwords to maintain.

As for social media proper, I just don't feel any particular urge to keep up with the often-trivial details of everyone's life.

As an aside, I find it kind of irritating when a website refuses to allow one to close/deactivate/delete/whatever your account.
> What if western governments stop enforcing drug development intellectual rights?

No new drugs. Pretty simple.

Now you ask, is that a bad thing? well yes, yes it is. Right now, we are running out of (or have run out of) top end antibiotics.

Partly from over use (I'm looking at you America.) mostly from using them to get much higher yields in farm animals (yup, thats right, last line antibiotics are being used on pigs, so they can be packed in much higher densities. )

So what I hear you say? Well TB thats what. There is a resurgence in TB, the white death. Now, you might be content with each lung collapsed in turn, in a vein attempt to cure it[1]. However I'm not.

1 in 3 people get cancer. The survival rates are not good. Loads of people are diabetic. (mainly because they eat shit and are fat(unless its type1 which is genetic))

Opensource model is just bollocks. I don't want to be treated by some drug thats only had patchy test coverage. I don't want to be beholden to some amateur who thought it'd be good to reinvent for the billions time penicillin.

Who is going to pay for the time? its not like you can provide charge for support is it?

No, the way forward is actually having a proper handle on insurance. Here in the UK, drugs are purchased nationally[2] but more importantly you only pay a nominal upfront fee. Its not more expensive, in fact its hovering around 6% of GDP compared to 18% for the US (and with much better care too)

Harvard Restrictions Could Reshape Exclusive Student Clubs
Ok, phrased misleadingly, I guess. My thought was more along the line of »How frequently would I need to speed up to avoid something instead of slowing down?« – generally it doesn't seem wise to me to add more energy to a situation and so far I haven't come across a situation where slowing down wasn't an appropriate response (granted, something heavy coming up fast from behind is an issue, but that also only helps if there's nothing in the front to speed into).

Anecdotal as well, also with a huge grain of salt, considering that despite being somewhat old, I'm only allowed to drive since December. To other drivers I'm probably overly cautious, I guess.
I share the sentiment of the proposal, but what I really don't understand is why user moderation fails to suppress those sites despite their tactics angering so many people.
Tying tax rates to specific individuals is always going to be massively distorting. If you want to... I'm not even sure what your "transferable but not inheritable" was supposed to accomplish, but whatever it is it's probably more efficient and less distorting to do it somewhere other than the property tax code.

I'm sorry you have to take remicade for the rest of your life, but remicade won't cost $17k each time for the rest of your life. Generic versions of remicade are already available in Europe, and will be available in the US not later than Sep 2018 (when the patent expires, but in fact a biosimilar has already been approved by the FDA and could be launched "at risk" at any time).

On the other hand, it's likely that better treatments for your condition are developed in the future and at that point you will complain about how expensive those new drugs are.

Personally I read Leahy-Smith America Invents Act in completely opposed way.

The old system was only used in U.S. and Canada. Which is pretty shitty thing for any patent system. Global coverage is beneficial on it's own right, both for inventors and for economies.

Your old system was very susceptible for forgery, produced nasty arguments and rewarded inventors who didn't disclose their inventions as soon as possible. All of these are detrimental for both, inventors and economy.
This is correct. Specifically in my country, publications have to be published in journals of the first tertile of the corresponding category in the JCR index to get full credit.

Shame some people have such a negative view of learning a foreign/new language. You're not just learning a language, but a whole culture. New ways of thinking, interacting and connecting with the world.

Such intense focus on computer-based solutions robs us of genuinely fulfilling life experiences, swapping them out for quick dopamine hits and thousands of completely forgettable 'oh cool' moments.
As noted other comments, this would only apply to the /r/technology subreddit. The general feedback is in favor of blocking these types of sites.

I'm pretty amazed at the current state of ads. With multiple ad exchanges, private sellers, and static brand deals, the entire serving process is a mess and users are paying for it. I don't think publishing websites are being malicious; they're incentived to make money and just haven't figured out how to do it at a high enough margin while keeping users happy. I just think the entire internet ad industry is in shambles and nobody really knows a solution that makes everyone happy.
First example is actually more of an UI issue which I will fix asap.

Filtering out or fixing (where it is feasible) the bad quality stuff (alignment-errors like your second example) is very high on my list. Of course it's less trivial to do it right.

Webpack costs extra.

But seriously, the 'price-range' of a freelancing javascript developer that is acquainted with modern frameworks like React, is the full range that any freelancer, in any business can have.

Probably the very low (<10$/hour) and very high (200$+/hour) ends of the spectrum don't happen very often in this job, but still if I tell you 10$/hour to 150$/hour what would that mean?

Also it depends highly on the nature of the task. Short term will usually command higher price than long-term.

Right but the "made up story" has to be legally sound. Like they have to put a police officer at the right place at the right time. How is that a bad thing?

There are no other modern rich, democratic countries with anything even approaching the incarceration rate or minimum sentencing insanity the US has, so it's entirely proper to single the US out.

Anything that expedites the process of moving from ads to paying "somehow else" for good content is good. But it falls on the technologists side to come up with something that replaces ads. Redditors are only curing a symptom.
Consider Ireland.

Initial setup costs might be a little more onerous and expensive than the UK, but can still essentially be completed easily online. The benefit with Ireland is that corporate tax is only 12.5%, compared to 20% in the UK.[0]

The problem is that sites with advertisement are shooting themselves in the foot. They produce valuable and high quality content attracting readers and increase revenues by providing more advertisement. The amount of advertisement drops the efficiency of advertisement, so price drops and you put more advertisement. None of these people really considered the user experience on their site, except google on the google search result page.

This is like thinking that you would increase a crop yield by increasing the amount of fertilizer you put on it. There is an optimal balance beyond which you burn the crop with too much fertilizer.

I would suggest to significantly reduce the amount of advertisement on the site. Sell the add space with auction. Less advertisement increase the add efficiency. Increase the quality of content to increase the number of readers. Select high quality none intrusive adds that don't disrupt people's experience on the site.

In short take back the control of your site advertisement. Prohibit tricks your readers don't like (e.g. tracking), etc.

This is not much different from companies and hallmarks selling unhealthy food. The difference with adblocks is that people have a tool filtering out unhealthy food from their view. Who is the bad guy ? The client with its filter or the companies providing unhealthy food ?

Regulation doesn't work. We should know it by now. We have to take things in our own hand because the system is not able to keep a sane course by itself (cf. liberalism).
Yet, a lot of stuff beyond crypto depends solely on an integer performance + memory bandwidth. Graphics included. 2D image processing is better done in integer or a fixed point.
FWIW, I've found the Leechblock plugin (and probably many others like it) to be a great help. I'm only allowed on FB and similar time-sucking sites (HN not included....) after 9pm. But I think it ultimately doesn't help unless you acknowledge the problem, as they say in AA. You're going to find ways of circumventing plugins like that, for me they mostly help in curbing the 'reflex' of typing in facebook.com in the address field. For that, it's great.

Also curious to know how helpful the HN crowd finds Twitter for actual networking purposes.

In Firefox, you can disable media.autoplay.enabled (false) for html5 video. Flash should be disabled by default I think but you can make it dependent to click-to-play.

I agree with everybody, it's such a lack a respect for the user. People using that trick (like youtube gesman pointed out) don't think of you as individual but as receiver/consumer/goods/idiot. If it uses sound, it can even be dangerous if you are using headphones.

Some people can't read a map in North view, that's where customer interviews get interesting - they even need a 3D view or the speech. Actually in my IT-engineering school a subgroup couldn't read the technical blueprints at all (drawings of mechanical parts in left/right section), and it was all the students from Morrocco - even if both their parents were French immigrants with servants and wealth. The only possible explanation I've though about is that they may not have been exposed to Lego when young.

They still do. From the article:

DevOps for all – and other insights from OpenStack Austin 2016
Sorry but I can't keep up with you. You're trying to reason about things you
don't even know happened, based on an account in an article you read on the
internet, and on things that people report. That's no way to make sense of
anything.

I'll give you an example. Where I come from, people believe in the Evil Eye:
that if you stare at someone or something with a bad intention, if you're
jealous etc, you can cause real, physical harm to that person, thing etc.

I've been accused of it a couple of times (I got scary eyes). Once a friend got
a headache and then called her mom and asked her to say a special prayer people
say that supposedly banishes the Evil Eye, then made a big todo about how a
certain person always gave her the Evil Eye (it didn't take rocket science to
figure out she was talking about me).

So, my friend obviously had an ailment, if you like: her head hurt. She felt
bad, she blamed it on me. It helps that we were having an argument at the time
it happened. We often had arguments. She often had headaches. She believed I was
giving her the Evil Eye.

You can take the events themselves and try to reason about them. Did I give my
friend the Evil Eye? Was the headache unrelated? Which happened first? What
tells us they were cause-and-effect? What tells us they weren't?

Except, there is no such thing as the Evil Eye and you're basing your whole
reasoning process on empty air- and convincing yourself that you're on firm
ground.

The thing to ask is not "did I give my friend the Evil Eye?". The thing to ask is
"is there such a thing as the Evil Eye?". Equally, you should be asking whether
ENS is real in the first place. But you jump immediately in discussions of
cause-and-effect, symptoms and accounts. If you're already convinced that ENS is
real, those are not that important. But you have to ask yourself: why do you
think it's real? Just because people say they have it? There doesn't seem to be
anything else at the moment.

Like others say, I don't doubt for a moment that people suffer from - something.
But I'm not convinced that it's what they say it is. I don't blame people for
going mad about it, I do blame their doctors for not listening to them, but I
don't blame ENS, because it sounds like the Evil Eye, or Morgellon's or whatever
similar crazy thing people latch on to in their desperation.

And of course the worse thing is: by latching onto ENS (or whatever), people
deprive themselves of the chance to have what ails them treated.
