Although interesting, it read more like scattered excerpts from my undergrad set theory textbook except without symbols.

I think its evident by the NYTimes comments, this probably won't be the easiest article to understand for someone with little background on the topic. The great thing about the books on the subject are they essentially start from nothing.

>You capitalize "truth" in other comments and say we should seek it yet you don't realize this endeavor is also prone to the is-ought problem. Because man seeks truth, does that mean he should morally seek it?

You're right that if the reasoning given for seeking, knowing, or relying on truth was "because man seeks truth" this would be an invalid reason, subject to the Is-Ought problem. But that's not the reason I encourage you to know truth.

>The more you try to make logic of illogic…

As far as Christianity, there seems to be sort of a divide between a Western tradition that intended to show Christianity as ultimately reasonable (ie, scholasticism in the Church of Rome, the Church of England, many Protestant denominations) and groups that sort of just admit the system is fundamentally unreasonable and mystical such as the Orthodox, Roman mystics like John of Ruusbroec, Baptists, and Pentecostals. I sort of side with the latter.

>Yes, it can.…

It is difficult to take this article seriously given the author's repeated references to "narcotic stimulants," a contradiction in terms. It shows that they are getting their whole perspective from law enforcement, which routinely (and quite misleadingly) refers to all drugs as "narcotics" regardless of their effect. The law enforcement establishment has been spewing bullshit for decades, to a degree that has now become embarrassingly obvious, whenever it discusses drugs; if the author of the piece is still taking anything they say seriously, they are either painfully incurious or they are actively participating in the promotion of War on Drugs propaganda.

65% of Dell shareholders voted for the deal, in what seemed to be a fair process. (Michael Dell wasn't allowed to vote his own shares, and non-voters counted as voting against.) Any time people vote someone is "forced" to accept an option they voted against, but the process can still be fair. If equity holders usually get screwed by leveraged buyouts then they should start voting against them.

I agree with the author that having a judge determine the correct price seems perverse.
Thanks. Great tips and I had wanted to work on a similar idea before.
I suspect the discrepancy regarding Kyle's awards is really only of interest to two groups of people: the ones who served with him, and the ones who dislike him (or the military in general) and relish the notion of his reputation being tarnished.

I'm a veteran, and I have a problem with people who claim military decorations they didn't earn. I think the term "stolen valor" is needlessly dramatic, but the act itself is contemptible.

I temper this with the knowledge, however, that there is sometimes a discrepancy between the branches of service and even within units in a single service when it comes to giving out awards...especially those that only tangentially involve combat. Many who deserved to be decorated have not; many more who did little have much to show for it.

I don't know where Chris Kyle stands with me, exactly.

If he had simply served as a SEAL in combat, that would still be impressive. Being awarded the Silver Star is noteworthy by itself. Being awarded three Bronze Stars for valor isn't shabby by any stretch.

If he intentionally deceived people about the other decorations, that certainly is a blemish on his character but still strikes me as silly as thinking less about Michael Collins because he "only" circled the moon in Apollo 11 rather than landed on it with Armstrong and Aldrin.

This is much ado about (almost) nothing. Especially as the man himself is dead, and will neither benefit from or be punished for any possible misdeed at this point.
I can assure you that the tech has advanced enough in the last three decades that you would immediately notice the lack of non-parallax depth perception.

"We did not include special instruction set support for overflow checks on integer arithmetic operations, as many overflow checks can be cheaply implemented using RISC-V branches."

False. For example, JavaScript add/sub will require 3x more instructions on RISC-V than x86 or ARM. Same will be true for any other language requires (either implicitly, like JS, or explicitly, like .NET) overflow checking. Good luck with that, lol.
There are different forms.

On a cantonal level there is (among others) a "finance referendum". This may be mandatory or optional depending on the canton. Optional means the project is only actually put to a referendum if an eligible group demands it. An eligible group may be a political party, a certain number of voters, certain interest groups, etc.

For example in the Canton of Zürich there is an optional referendum on decisions of the Cantonal Council on new non-recurrent expenditure of more than 6 million francs or new recurrent annual expenditures of more than 600'000 francs. To actually put such a decision to a referendum requires either 3000 voters (public referendum), 12 municipalities, the city of Zürich or the city of Winterthur (municipal referendum), or 45 Cantonal Council members (cantonal referendum).

On a federal level there is no "finance referendum". It has been proposed, but most political parties are against it since it could hinder the Federal Council in its freedom of action and delay or even block important investments. But there's a mandatory referendum for all constitutional changes and certain other things like joining supranational communities etc. and a optional referendum for all federal laws and certain other things like international treaties etc. The optional referendum requires 50'000 voters (or eight cantons, but this only actually happened once).
You must know different people than I do if everyone you know taking amphetamines is always taking them at low-levels ;)
Thank you very much for this answer. I am glad to hear that you still expect pseudo-time approaches to yield fruit. And I appreciate some pointers to more recent work in this direction.

I only recently read David Reed's thesis and did not know about this later work until you mentioned it. Almost all of the links I can find about Croquet no longer work. (OpenCroquet and OpenCobalt websites seem to have disappeared.) Can you recommend reading for someone who wanted to understand the design decisions made in the several versions of Croquet?

I have been experimenting with layering pseudo-time on top of asynchronous message-passing in Erlang. One useful trick which I have not yet seen published is that you can have two-dimensional pseudo-times, so that one running system can track multiple chains of causation. (You would not want this happening all the time, since the whole point is to get a consistent history everywhere. But it is very useful for developers.)

An example: Let's say I have an existing object and a clone of it where I have changed some of the methods' behavior, but I want to understand all the consequences of these differences across all the distributed objects they cooperate with. I can send them the same message with different y-coordinate pseudo-times. In a system that relied on wall clock time, the side-effects of these two message sends would merely step on each other non-deterministically. But with pseudo-time, their effects are causally distinct throughout the system and can be dynamically inspected, making it a lot easier to build a human understanding of the behavior of the distributed system.
Mostly to raise kids in a stable manner. And the finances are much more stable. You need someone you can have fun with; little league games are not romantic, but are fun. Ditto doing the laundry or yardwork or cooking dinner or whatever. We have similar outlooks on hobby / life / work balance.

We're also both descended from 40+ yrs of marriage couples, so the risk of divorce seems much lower.
What's the purpose of including both? Does each one serve a different purpose in the medication?
I'm always in awe and grateful for the teams like CoreOS that tackle these tough problems.

But when it comes to container storage I'm confused.

The 12 factor app methodologies work very well for every service I have written and supported.

Processes/containers get ephemeral storage. When you need persistence you delegate to a stateful service, generally Postgres and S3.

Id much rather write my apps around these simple and well understood constraints then depend on magic file systems.

Okay. I'm sorry to have gotten on you. There so many comments in this thread I found to be so completely wrong, and/or unsympathetic, it had really bothered me, and I took it out on you. Thank you for admitting that you may not fully understand what is a very serious situation for many. And sadly, at least in the US, we do a rather poor job of solving the problem, not because we don't have the resources, but because a large amount of people (and their leaders) simply ignore or don't wish to fix the problem. It's frustrating, and all the more frustrating when you read comments about it on HN, which again, tend to lack sympathy for their fellow human beings. And again, I apologize.
Yeah. Sometimes it seems like there's a standard cycle:

1. Drug X works wonders for millions who suffer with Syndrome Z. But these evil politicians and FDA bureaucrats won't let people use it. Call your congressional rep and demand support for HR ABC123 today. Stop the suffering!

2. (2-5 years later) Is Drug X Causing Millions to get Disease Y? Look at this new study released by the highly respected "Famous University". Mortality went up, and, even worse, Drug X is no better than a placebo!

3. Greedy Big Pharma has been pushing pseudo-cure Drug X and it's destroying people's lives. Call your congressional rep and demand support for HR XYZ789 today!
This reminds me of the "Hemingway" app that failed Hemingway: http://languagelog.ldc.upenn.edu/nll/?p=10416

Can I also just point out that "I was exhausted." is not passive voice! And "Our work here is done." also shouldn't be highlighted, it's absolutely fine. What the hell? With these kinds of false positives, this seems like it would do more harm than good.
You seem to be equating therapeutic doses of amphetamines with recreational doses (i.e. overdosing). The amount of amphetamines people take for recreational purposes or for those all-nighters and whatnot are more than what people take for medicinal purposes. So it's not some magical bright line that makes amphetamines good for some people and bad for others. But it is a condition that makes therapeutic doses beneficial for some people, with different effects than people without the condition have when taking that kind of dosage (I assume that if someone with ADHD overdoses they'll see similar effects to someone without, but I don't know anyone who overdoses so I have no concrete knowledge of that). Your comment is dangerously close to "ADHD isn't real" and that bothers me.

> In any case, we can keep pretending that stimulants are just good medicine for a vaguely nebulous diagnosis and poison for everyone else

That is a gross misstatement of the position you're arguing against.

> As far as long term effects of taking amphetamines every day, especially starting from childhood...well, we're running a population wide experiment on that now

Amphetamines were discovered over 100 years ago, and have been used for therapeutic purposes since 1935. In fact, it appears that as early as 1937 amphetamines were being tested on children with severe behavioral problems (i.e. what would be finally classified as ADHD). We may be using amphetamines much more often now for therapeutic purposes, but pretending that nobody has been taking amphetamines long-term until recently is wrong.
Symfony considering dropping HHVM support
Perhaps I misunderstood your comment, you said that people with ADHD react differently and I was assuming you meant they do not respond in the same manor as someone else who just took a stimulant.

Often you hear this saying that people with ADHD feel relaxed when they take a stimulant and don't feel any increased energy or mood lift, which of course is false. That's what I was referring to.
Because the authoritarian state uses an in-language to signal virtue, overstepping denotations. These are the same people who call non-cops "civilians."

>I assume they just have some sort of innate satisfaction from finding vulnerabilities, sort of like solving a puzzle?

Oh yeah, that's exactly why I do what I do. I also keep a portfolio of all the freelance, zero-profit whitehat hacking that I do to show to employers, it's not as if it were without benefit.

The first time I saw Shodan.io, I thought to myself "I could do that", so I spent $500 over 6 months and started scanning the entire Internet for vulnerabilities. It was a lot of fun, and I never earned a penny, but employers love when I bring out all my data, like my 100k row spreadsheet of every single HP printer connected to the internet with a WAN IP address.

It was also fun to localize my scans to my current city, because I could walk around downtown and know that MY packets were trickling through all the buildings around me.

Tl;Dr: People are intrinsically motivated to do what they love, whatever it may be.

In any of the companies I've worked with or visited in my times in the US (SF, specifically), lunchtime drinking was pretty common, and practically unheard of in my European experience.

Like yourself, I wouldn't want to extrapolate a broader trend from that, just providing a counter-anecdote.

Think on smoking we've probably had a similar experience though. I don't think I even know an American that smokes (cigarettes), let alone seen it at a workplace. In Europe, it'd be weird if there weren't a couple of people in any office that didn't have an obvious habit.

From the article: "This is a program which provides very generous benefits in exchange for real commitment to create new jobs. ... In the first full year of operation in 2014, 76 jobs were created statewide. At a cost of more than $40 million for advertising and marketing..."

No wonder this was criticized by the state auditor.

State job-incentive creation programs are generally ineffective. CBS reported that the typical Government expenditure per job is $475,000.[1] In many cases, jobs are not created, just moved.

Amazon managed to get $2.3 million per job out of the State of Texas.

Tesla's "Gigafactory" opens soon. I'm looking forward to finding out the actual employee count. I suspect it will be far smaller than the promotional numbers.

Not trying to disregard this sentiment present in the thread, but I could easily see it having the same physical effects, but how exactly do they quantify how it affects your brain processes and how you feel.

Anecdotally, I knew some people who took adderall in college that were not prescribed it and it seemed to cause them to have different behavior than myself. A similar situation, I would imagine, is how alcohol affects people differently. Maybe not physically, but you definitely see a wide range of actions and behaviors elicited among different individuals.
There are trends in writing like in everything else, I guess.
It's a good observation. Private companies with more than 500 shareholders have to obey a different sets of rule from those with fewer owners and must disclose financial performance in a way similar to that of public companies. Most of the time, you'd except to have more than 500 small shareholders that won't willingly sell.
I never mentioned config files.
The article explicitly states: "A good example of this optional nature of data is user preferences – you only really need to store the settings that differ from the default values."
User settings is a good candidate for a configuration object in the configuration store that I built.
The primary id will be the user id, the secondary id the machine name (if the system needs to support different configurations on different machines) and the rest will be a CLOB containing the JSON serialized user configuration.
