Growing up, I remember Marina Foods in Cupertino being much fresher than the other grocers.

> Chinatown’s green grocers, in contrast, buy their stock from a handful of small wholesalers operating from tiny warehouses right in the neighborhood

Chipotle tried hyper-localised procurement and processing. That backfired, since heterogeneity in sourcing and processing means heterogeneity in quality control. How do these markets avoid food poisoning their customers? Are the meat makers, distributors and retailers wholly separate? Do farmers of Asian vegetables avoid fertilising with manure?
Do you want to get banned? Because this is how you get banned.

It will likely link, since both clang and gcc will perform RVO on bar(), so the copy constructor won't be called.
Fiddler works fine on Ubuntu if you run it with mono.
I'm fairly certain he is speaking of data compression in the article, rather than dynamic volume compression.

The problem with sending compressed signals is that they will probably be recompressed before making it to someone's ear and the chain of codecs may introduce strange artifacts.
Using unsafe, you can do anything C can do.
Umm, because commercial radio is 100% driven by advertisements where as NPR is less than 20% and is very selective about what sponsors it takes on?

> dahart, you can make your first example arbitrarily close to 0^0, but you can't with the second. (e.g. you can replace 1 with 0.001 in the first case but not the second.)

I'm not sure I understand what you mean there.

For any positive nonzero real value x, x^0=1, right? And 0^x=0 for all x too, yes?

The limit from the positive direction for x^0 is 1, you can get arbitrarily close to zero. The limit from the positive direction for 0^x is 0, and you can also get arbitrarily close to 0 here too.

etatoby's graph with isolines, the red and blue ones, shows those two cases specifically, and yeah, they arrive at 0 with two different values, meaning the answer is indeterminate (but not undefined).

Etatoby is right; 0^0 is indeterminate. I'm not arguing with that at all, it is a fact.

I'm saying I understand why people choose to ignore that 0^0 is indeterminate and choose instead to just define that 0^0=1.

I really like your pown() vs powr() example, because it actually demonstrates how in practice, choosing to return a defined value in some cases is the more practical choice.

That said, I think there's still a conflict even within pown(), even for the integer case, that's what I was getting at. pown(0,x) is 0 for all positive x except 0. Negative x is undefined due to the division by 0, and pown(0,0)=1 simply because 0^0 is chosen to be defined at 1. But if you imagine an integer limit starting from 10 going down to zero, there's a clear pattern:

pown(0,10)=0; pown(0,9)=0; ... pown(0,1)=0

pown(10,0)=1; pown(9,0)=1; ... pown(1,0)=1

IEEE chose to make the pown(x,0) rule more important than the pown(0,x) rule when it comes to x=0, even in the case of integers.

I live in the south bay, but whenever I have a business meeting in SF it's requested that I stop in Chinatown for veggies and meat, because it's so much cheaper and better than what we can get even here just 45 miles away.
It would be a little cheaper for you and massively more profitable to them (at least until everyone else adds robots).
I have used it since 2 years ago or so to implement JSON REST APIs and some small admin pages for app backends. I compare with Python which I have also used for this.

Cons:

- More verbose than Python (returning errors and static typing make it not as succint as Python)

Pros:

- Static typing without being too ceremonius (compared to Python it's nice to have some errors catch by the type compiler that would popup in runtime. Refactoring also is nicer with a static typing safenet).

- Easy deployment (rsync the binary to the server and of you go, no more Pip and dynamic libraries bullshit)

- Low memory usage (nice to have the production backend running and see that it uses 15MB of mem where in Python it would be like 10 times more and with worse concurrence)

- Performance (somewhat minor plus for me because the bottleneck is almost always on the database)
Then you need to rely on the checks and balances between branches of the government. As you said, the checks and balances are ripe for disruption or at least improvement.
All broadcast radio is highly compressed. Without it, it would be inaudible in most practical listening conditions (car, walking on the street, in your kitchen cooking).

What if someone could travel back in time to America in the 1960's?
Does anyone know how much automation is happening at a frozen pizza bakery/factory? The bakery industry has fairly elaborate robotics already, the ones in the video don't seem that revolutionary to me compared to an episode of "How it's made".

I'd gladly eat robot pizza, though. Good luck to these guys.
It appears that millions of Americans prefer Dominos pizza considering they command 25% of the US pizza delivery market and sell 1.5 mm pies a day. Sorry their pizza isn't up to your standards.

Idk. Pizza takes very little labor in making it, while the place, ingredients, logistics and marketing are quite complex.
We have, but it didn't seem all that relevant in this thread ;)
The article never considers that the network effect of humanity may add up to a more productive whole, even if it appears to be made up of less productive individuals. This is the very nature of teamwork, and it's a good thing. Young people have to take longer to figure out what they should do, they can play and explore more, and make mistakes that don't starve their family.

I've observed the exact opposite of the folksyism of this article. Young people with increased play time were able to find more meaningful and more lucrative long term positions due to the luxury of explorations. Those forced to "grow up" early ended up in dead end positions due to suboptimization for short term needs.

But the New Yorker is hung up on the trope of individual success, as is the cultural center they arise from.
This is hard to describe without being pedantic and without being able to draw but I will attempt.

A motorcycle performing a stoppie experiences rotation because the inertial force couples with the braking force to create a moment about the front axle of the bike (this isn't technically correct language but you get the gist). While this idea holds true for the train, we have to take into account the differences in mass and contact between the two systems. Train cars typically ride on more than 2 axles and this provides stability from front or rear tipping. Train cars are also typically very heavy meaning that the braking force is not sufficient to 1) move the center of forces of the system ahead of the front axles and 2) tip the car. Increases in load because of this are, therefore, not sufficient to double the load on the front axle as you would see with a stoppie.

In general I agree with the idea that is put forth; however, it is important to note that what we are discussing is the BRAKING force. The inertial forces that result in differential axle loads is not a braking force (certainly, it is a result of braking in this case but this force also exists when a train begins pulling). These loads are DYNAMIC loads and are already considered in another part of the analysis. Dynamic loads also include consideration for bumps, etc. Because of this, the code is explicit that braking forces are applied only longitudinal to the track so that the forces are not counted twice.
"Web applications sanitize the apostrophe (') character in strings coming from user input being passed to SQL statements using an escape (\) character."

Please, please don't say this. In the SQL standard, backslash is NOT the escape character for a string literal.

PostgreSQL, starting in v8.2, began transitioning from C-style escapes (using backslash) to SQL standard escapes (where a single quote is escaped with another single quote). Standard behavior is the default, but can be controlled with the variable standard_conforming_strings.

But you shouldn't have to know that anyway. Use out-of-band parameters that are passed in the wire protocol separately from the string. Web frameworks should already ensure this, and if they don't, they are likely broken.

If you are writing a web framework and you need to use escaping for some reason: first, make sure you can't use parameters on the wire instead; then read the product-specific literal parsing rules very carefully, considering things like multibyte characters.
Surely, bass roll-off could be done, with greater flexibility, later in the signal path, and applied to any microphone, right?
I ran into this very same issue during another posting on HN. It was auto correct at play. I had to go back and reedit it twice because it was auto correcting it back to 'Schneider'.
A lot of programs aren't that black and white when it comes to eligibility, and how many dependents a person has will also affect benefits. So that's yet another thing that needs to be controlled for if we want to put trust into the results.

One elegant way to ensure that people don't use these benefits, and that doesn't leave them worse off, is to make minimum income higher than all of the income eligibility limits.
Even the headphones themselves are probably at least a grand and they've got way more of those laying around. $3600 is a lot, but audio equipment gets REAL expensive pretty quickly.

Edit: Fair enough, I'm entirely incorrect as far as the headphone price point.
This could be used in reverse as a robot trainer for fencers by setting it to find a way to make a collision with objects instead of avoiding them.
We already do that to some extent.

Keep in mind the class distinction between someone working for the government on their own volition (police officers, military, etc), versus someone using it as a resort-- welfare recipients, SSI, veterans, etc.

The other thing to keep in mind, when you work for a company, at least in theory you hold a leverage of being able to quit and go to another job. If you're getting checks from the government (and possibly not working), you lose this leverage.
Real-World RPC with RabbitMQ and Node.js
Good article until the end where he compared an empire that was created by Russia invading other countries (yes, they freed them from the Nazis, but they forgot to leave afterwards) to the EU, which was created to prevent Germany from doing exactly that every other year.

Yes the EU has economic problems in the South, but they are nowhere near Soviet-level problems. Eastern Germany was one of the better doing (de facto) Soviet states and is still far behind the West today after 25 years of subsidies.

The EU has a problematic image, but it is not like mother Russia looking after its child states. The commission has no direct elections, because the member governments which negotiated the treaties (remember, this is just a union of states) do not want elections.
They want to send in their own guys. The image is so bad, because nobody knows anything about it and local governments blame it for everything. They abuse it to get laws passed and can later blame on the EU.

Many of the standard the EU creates are quite good. Think of roaming or USB chargers for example. Yes, they are regulating many things, but that's because they cannot do anything else. What we really need is not less EU but more. First of all better integration on the financial side of politics. We cannot share a currency without a joined budget/tax system. After that we can work on things like police, military, maybe even social systems (which would stop the discussion what EU citizens should get from the state).
Given that the leave camp completely torpedoed there entire argument for leaving inside 24hrs of the vote and that large parts of the electorate are now wondering what the hell they voted for I could see the argument for waiting to see if the situation materially changes and then running another referendum.

It's quite possible that when the dust settles that the UK and EU might reach terms for something that would be palatable to more people in which case another referendum would be reasonable.

I don't think anyone really knows what the hell is going to happen next since not even leave expected to win.
I have often wondered if NPR or public radio in general is motivated to pander to a demographic. By this I mean, consider the leaders of the organization have demographic data on who is most likely to pledge support during their quarterly pledge drives. Would it not make sense to ensure that the sort of stories that this demographic enjoys and (more worryingly) agrees with?

This is not to say that its a bad thing, people are paying into a cooperative because they enjoy it, and they should continue to enjoy it. But public radio, though avoiding corporate advertising, still may have to pander, just on a lesser scale and to in a more democratic manner.

NPR's "signature sound", sadly, is being overrun with hideous vocal fries.
I engage Jehovah's Witnesses, but not in the dick way that capital A Atheists might (I'm a small a atheist). I try to learn what they're about. They're generally nice people.
Generally, if it's not in my contacts list, then it's unsolicited and flagged spam. I won't answer unknown phone numbers (as I get a large number of spam calls in Spanish for immigration and high interest loans coming from or spoofed to the same area code and CO as my number, so even "local" numbers are suspect to me). If I don't answer, they leave a message, and it is someone or someplace I know about, then I'll add it to my contacts. If I answer an unknown number, just the act of asking "Hello?" seems to be about the equivalent as clicking an unsubscribe link in a true spam message; it notifies the spammer that they've got a warm contact that they can resell or contact again.
It's not that binary. The idea that you don't want programs to discourage people from working guides a lot of the income schedules.

This is a good example of how some programs work that could conflict with the experiment: http://www.fns.usda.gov/snap/income-rules-income-limits
what the Scottish National Party really wants, as the name suggests, is an independent Scotland inside the shelter of the EU.

Unlike the Brexit camp, Nicola Sturgeon seems seem to be calm, collected and have a plan. Not to mention, they have a loaded gun: "You want Scotland to stay? We'll veto the brexit". "You want us to honour your democratic wishes? Then let Scotland go first."
I guess I don't understand what is really novel about this. Don't brands like Digiorno and Freschetta already have highly-optimized pizza assembly lines? Is it really that hard to make the topping/sauce dispensing dynamic instead of static?

I also don't understand the appeal of having the pizza be super hot-n-ready. If you have an efficient baking-to-delivery pipeline, and an insulated container for the pizza, then how much are you really improving the quality? Ten minutes of sitting still in an insulated bag is fine with me.

And how do they handle the hand-off issue with an AUV? You get a notification and then the car sits there waiting to deliver the pizza for several minutes while you walk outside? At that point, the pizza is just as cold as it would have been if you had a human bring one to your door-- and at least the latter doesn't make you put on shoes.

Just seems fraught with issues that really require what you might call "AUV-complete" or "robot-complete" tech. If you have a very smart, powerful drone that is capable of picking up a pizza, keeping it warm, and effectively delivering it to people's doors with 99.99% reliability, then this sounds obvious. Otherwise, this seems like an idea that's too soon to succeed.
Project gating with Zuul
Actually, I've seen AKG studio monitor headphones quite a bit -- and they're right around $100. Whether NPR uses them is a different thing, though.
Probably not, or at least it won't be at scale. Dominos employees need managers, benefits (of some sort), payroll, legal and HR.. liability insurance for when they get pissed off and do something nasty to another employee or a customer.. they cost a lot more than the hourly.
Rolling off before the microphone amplifier means that bass frequencies can't saturate the amplifier as easily.
I have built a lot of random stuff in Go.

I picked up go about two years because it seemed to be a really cool middle-of-the-road language. It wasn't great at anything but was pretty good at most things. Before, I had written a lot of PHP on the web.

No stumbling blocks after getting set up (GOPATH, getting newest version installed). It's always slow to learn something new.

My advice. Do not return dynamic content with Go. If you build a backend webservice in Go that is meant to serve complicated dynamic content (like the way it is possible to do with PHP), you will have a bad time. htmltemplates in Go are not good and you'll waste a lot of time try to live with them. It's better just to return a little bit of info that a front end js app can bootstrap the front-end with.
I do the same. Almost no one has my landline phone number, so whenever I get a call I paste the number in Google. 9/10 times other people have already reported it as spam. I then proceed to blacklist it which can be done from the phone itself and takes about 5 keystrokes.
Alternatively, you can use a temp table and a join. Not ideal, but still safe from injection and should have roughly the same overhead in the database.
NPR is a non-profit organization. Although they need to play the advertising game to keep the lights on, they certainly aren't there to try and make big profits on their listeners.

Commercial radio is not like this.
The 200th hour syndrome refers to when a pilot has reached their 200th hour in the air and their confidence in their abilities is enough that they begin to get careless:

"Enough experience to be confident, enough to screw up real good." is how a nice TV show put it.
This is a non sequitur. There is a myriad of reasons why one might not profit even if they're completely right about the market. For example: just can't be bothered.
in the US, concealing unpopular opinions from pollsters is known as the "Bradley effect". It was massively over-diagnosed in 2008 and 2012, but seems to be back in play now.
Is this a misophonia thing? I really couldn't care less about vocal fry.
Meet 10 Britons who voted to leave the EU
They don't advertise the roles as regularly as other sectors of IT because they're hard to hire for. A lot of the hiring is word-of-mouth or promoting a developer internally who has infosec interest into the role, or hiring freelancers / outside companies.

It is a sector suited to freelance roles and contracting, or working for a consulting firm in a fulltime capacity.

Build up an online profile on your own website. It can take the form of a blog or just a simple web page with a bio and some published articles/papers.

Mention on your website that you're available for hire, where you are and what type of work you do.

Write some blog posts (anywhere from 2-3 a month or even 2-3 a year if they're a bit longer form), establish specialities that you are good at, produce conference talks and pitch them at CFP's and go and speak at conferences, submit your posts and websites on reddit, here on HN etc.

You'll start getting cold approaches (I average around 3 after every blog post) and you'll have somewhere to point the companies you approach to.

You'll meet people at conferences who want to hire you.

To find companies to approach, find vulnerabilities and send them a note or participate in bug bounty programs. You can also approach companies who have recently been in the news with security issues, or those you find on Twitter where users or other infosec ppl are reporting issues on social networks .

A lot of companies hit a wall when they experience a security incident and they're not sure what to do, who to call or who to hire - so they're very open to hiring contractors to organize that or bringing in their first fulltime infosec hire.

To get the top-end research roles at the big co's you really need to produce good research and you'll be headhunted.

Try to be specific in terms of both specialities and sectors you deal with. If you decide on freelancing, use your first couple of clients as references for potential new clients and ask associated, customers, etc. to refer you other work.
I wonder how they power that. Propane?
I agree. This doesn't look particularly innovative in that regard. Pizza sounds like a pretty easy food to assembly-line. I guess the difference is really fresh vs raw end goal?
IRS Gets Hacked Again, Forced to Scrap Their Entire PIN System
Sorry, I should clarify that I blame Blair's government as well. Absolutely agree.

I actually still remember my penniless, scrounging father telling me how Blair/Labour was going to change everything in 1997. Practically crying about it while Blair celebrated on the CRT screen. How absurd that turned out to be.

I remember the miner/north-eastern side of my family practically disowning me when I praised some of Thatcher's policies and refused to back down. That was a rubbish Christmas – they still regard me as a traitor to my class, even now, especially given my line of work.

I didn't go to university. I just worked my arse off and used my own initiative. Now I find myself rather distant from everybody in my age group and income grade. Most of them cannot cook, repair their jeans, repair their smartphone chargers if the cable is snapped, etc. They've never had to think about such things, and they look at me with dismay when I suggest fixing something instead of replacing it. People worse off just deliberately treat their possessions carelessly because nothing matters to them. I cannot understand either side. Naturally I gravitate to realpolitik.

I feel no animosity or envy toward the privileged or wealthy. It does not make sense. I just want to go my way, maybe invest one day when I can afford the risk.
