Interesting! I definitely didn't think hard enough while reading your last post.

You're suggesting that, if we switched to funding what-are-now-public schools directly through tuition payments made by the students attending them, then that might amount to a more just (or at least generally more satisfying) system than what we have now?

Or is there another policy you think would be better?

I've been meaning to learn jq, so I decided to give it a try.

FRUITS=$(cat input.json | jq '.models | map(select(.title == "fruits")) | .[0]')
FRUIT_NAME_KEY=$(echo "$FRUITS" | jq '.fields | map(select(.name == "Name")) | .[0].key')

FARMERS=$(cat input.json | jq '.models | map(select(.title == "farmers")) | .[0]')
FARMER_NAME_KEY=$(echo "$FARMERS" | jq '.fields | map(select(.name == "Full name")) | .[0].key')
FARMER_FRUITS_KEY=$(echo "$FARMERS" | jq '.fields | map(select(.name == "Fruits")) | .[0].key')

BOB=$(echo "$FARMERS" | jq '.entities | map(select(.['$FARMER_NAME_KEY'] == "Bob, the farmer")) | .[0]')
BOB_FRUIT_IDS=$(echo "$BOB" | jq '.['$FARMER_FRUITS_KEY'] | .[]' -r)

for BOB_FRUIT_ID in "$BOB_FRUIT_IDS"; do
echo "$FRUITS" | jq '.entities | map(select(._id == "'$BOB_FRUIT_ID'")) | .[0] | .['$FRUIT_NAME_KEY']'
done

There's a bit of bash boilerplate, but honestly it was about what I would expect, given a structure with so many layers of indirection.

Pain points:

* Switching between bash and jq's filtering language led me to use string interpolation with bash variables. Malicious inputs can probably exploit this (and it was just awkward anyway).

* A "select one" filter would be nice, instead of select + get first element.

Crumple zones even in much crappier cars are a blessing. My brother was once not given the right of way while he was driving a VW Polo (OK, Skoda Fabia, same car).

If Tesla is even better, I hope the next time a family member gets in an accident it'll be in a Tesla. That sentence probably sells cars.

* Say that the HN community will select 2 project for an interview for the YCF program, so it's completely clear that YC has the final word, veto power and whatever additional conditions seam necessary.

* Keep the last vote open for at least 24 hours, as it was in the extended period. I live Argentina, so I have a an hour similar to USA, but it would be nice that the people outside north/south America have time to vote.

* (More difficult) Enable a "hide" option for the ApplyHN threads. There were more than +250 applications and some of them were good and some of them were "obviously" bad. I'd like to filter them from the random order (without flagging them), so I can make my own shortlist of 30-50 applications to read them more carefully and upvote a few more.
..or tell them if they want a car then go get a part time job and buy one.

I learnt how to fix cars and I never had a crash because I knew it would mean certain death in that danger machine.

We spent a good time brainstorming and discussing what it is we're building before we built it. It's hard to describe complex ideas and grandiose visions of the future succinctly.

Our goal is not to be a high quality image transcoding business, if that's what you are after there are many great options. Our first task was to create a tool that anyone (like our parents) could use to edit short clips of video and easily share it with their friends. However I can sympathize with the feeling of wanting higher quality media and we have several performance increases and smart mechanisms to serve the right quality to different clients that will allow us to increase the quality of our media for everyone, no auctions necessary.
>On what basis do you dismiss the physical sensations felt by these people as nothing but anxiety resulting from surgery?

The parent comment wasn't dismissing it. Quite the contrary. You, however, do seem to be dismissing it, by saying "nothing but anxiety". Anxiety is very real.

>Would you similarly dismiss phantom pain and prescribe anti-depressants and CBT?

Pain can quite often be caused/exacerbated by psychological factors. Perhaps you should google "central sensitization". The parts of the brain that registers pain (the insular cortex and ACC) are also responsible for attaching emotional feelings to pain. In some cases (e.g. fibromyalgia) the pain persists in the absence of any physical pain signal.

The whole "lived experience" folks are often overly self-important when they suggest that no-one can ever understand another person unless they literally are that other person because lived experience is the only thing that counts.

But there's some truth to that idea, just because you think you know what's happening to another person doesn't mean you actually do.
ROI is kinda useless in this context.

i.e., they're essentially saying, if the uni is very selective (e.g. Harvard), the ROI is similar to say a state college.

But they're disregarding that Harvard, whoever subsidises you, is a $100k investment or w/e, and state colleges are $10k. Just making up ballpark numbers here.

Now the ROI might be the same, i.e. they might both end up earning roughly 1.5x their investment in annual salary. But seen this way, everyone appreciates there's a gigantic difference in where you study, even though percent wise the ROI is exactly the same.

I personally am unconvinced that the barrier to voice messaging is the interface. I think it is deeper than that. It is psychological. People are not (yet) comfortable speaking into inanimate objects that do not respond back instantly. I imagine that most people still feel silly speaking 'into' or 'at' an object and waiting. People don't type with their voice for the same reason they ask 'can you hear me' in a video conference or say 'hello' and wait for a response at an automatic gates, door bells that need people at the other end to respond or open, at drive in counters... etc.

That said, I completely agree with the WhatsApp bit. It is changing the way people interact...and it is surprising that it hasn't been as popular in the US.

It makes sense from an evolutionary perspective. The vast majority of men across history died without fathering any children. Doing so was a very real competition to secure power and women and defend what you had from the marauders. Our ancient ancestors were the ones that won these competitions; the ones that lost either died in combat or died as celibate servants to the more powerful men. So even though monogamy and modern society in general has changed the rules somewhat, the instinct is still deeply ingrained in most of us.

Women of course competed with each other for the attention of the most powerful men, but when you think about it from an evolutionary perspective, ultimately all that mattered was that they and their children were cared for and protected. Even in the absolute worst case scenario, your tribe being conquered and all of your men slaughtered, you would most likely be taken as a wife or concubine by the conquerors and life would for the most part continue on as usual after some time. So it isn't surprising that women would be predisposed towards cooperation. Raising children means that you get far more from being able to get along with your tribe and integrate peacefully into a new one if need be, than "winning" any single small victory. And in turn, women that were obsessed with small victories were more likely to piss their tribe off and find themselves ostracized or exiled.

This explains the difference in male and female bullying behaviors as well. Boys publicly display dominance because it confers status. Girls do it far more subtly, in private, so that they can put other girls down without breaking the veneer of social harmony or changing the way others perceive them.
This is true, most of the time. A gif can have super long delays in between frames, it should be possible to make a < 1kb gif that turns into > 1GB video.

We serve mp4 or webm if possible, before falling back to the gif in our embedded player. Highly recommend using that rather than the gif in an image element.
I don't know how it works out for stuff used during surgery, but for diagnostic devices (where if a device fails by becoming inoperable, the stakes are a lot lower), you can lump basically any software that you don't have total control and design history on (so this includes random proprietary software and most FOSS stuff) as "software of unknown providence" (SOUP).

Now based on the class of medical device you are developing, you can either get to use SOUP without justifying at all, or you have to explain/justify why you can use SOUP at all.

For example, even if your OS was Linux, because you don't have formal documentation on verifying that Linux infact does all the things its suppose to do (hell, does Linux even have a true spec?), you would then have to justify why you're using Linux. If a kernel update comes out, you then have to justify why you're using it.

What you WOULD have to do is verify/validate that your software that interacts with SOUP (so in this case running on an OS) still works correctly. You would not have to verify/validate the OS update per se.

If someone is experiencing a physical symptom and you tell them it's not actually physical, that is dismissing it. If someone has whiplash from a car crash and you tell them the pain is just a result of their anxiety about the crash, that is dismissing their physical pain. Because the pain actually has a cause independent of their psychological state that you are declining to acknowledge or treat directly.

More specifically, if the physical sensation is caused by something physical, then this is really quite dismissive (from grandparent):

> there isn't really a great model of care for people who won't or can't believe that their ailment is psychological and requires psychological treatment

Maybe it's your problem that you won't or can't believe that the ailment might not be psychological.

> You, however, do seem to be dismissing it, by saying "nothing but anxiety". Anxiety is very real.

I am not dismissing anxiety in the least. I know more about it than I would like to, and yes it is very real.
"dismiss"..."nothing but anxiety": Your question seems to imply that a psychological etiology is somehow less important than a physical etiology. Wouldn't the most important thing be developing a standard reproducible diagnostic criteria, then working on preventing or curing the problem? The parent comment seems to me to be a well-reasoned, nuanced description of the difficulties of dealing with this clinical scenario, and doesn't impose any value judgements regarding the 'intrinsic worth' of a medical symptom or etiology.

Why Atom Can’t Replace Vim
These articles are always written with a not so subtle level of schadenfreude by the author.

When companies cut costs they basically have a choice of reducing COGS, reducing overhead, reducing compensation per employee, or reducing the number of employees.

Most software companies have relatively low COGS so there isn't much to cut there. Reducing overhead (office space, events) is the least painful. Cutting peoples' salaries is basically impossible, so the only lever there is holding back bonuses. Depending on the company that may be a big cost saver. The last option is laying people off.

Given those are the only options cutting overhead is the nicest thing to do. Why is that a bad thing?
For Kubernetes vs Mesos vs Swarm vs other container schedulers you should pick the one that has the maturity, reliability and operational overhead that your team is comfortable taking on.

An important dimension is the data store. These all depend on a HA consensus based database:
Etcd, Consul, Zookeeper. Set up, automation, monitoring and scaling is different with each.

Aside from this schedulers are undifferentiated technology. Tell it what you want to run and trust it'll fulfil your request.

User Interface is generally going to be a matter of taste. A beautiful web app doesn't matter if your team wants a CLI tool or a fully automated CD flow.

I don't have first hand experience by my research shows that Mesos is the most mature but is pretty heavy to set up and manage. And that DC/OS is a very polished interface.
That’s quite disturbing. Was it on iOS or Android?
