Norway and Switzerland both have European free trade treaties that mandate compliance with trade regulations, free movement of people, etc.

If Brexit actually wants to stop EU free movement, which seems to be a majot motivation, it will need to withdraw from the free trade area (or negotiate a unicorn deal that no other nation has managed). At that point Norway and Switzerland will no longer be meaningful comparisons.

I wonder if this is a language thing. The second sentence says:

... we count the factorizations 3x5x13
and 13x3x5 as the same, for instance.

This is giving an simple example of what the phrase "up to ordering" implies. The full statement of the FTA says that the factorisation is unique "up to ordering" and that's exactly what the second sentence is saying.

So I still think you are mistaken, and I don't understand why you are disagreeing with what Gowers wrote. Perhaps you could give more detail about why you think he is wrong.
The barrier for entry for an alien invasion does exist, though it is currently undefined, since we don't know what it is. The reason I say that is there are at least 1 bloodthirsty species running around this galaxy (and many more if you consider the statistical possibility of life on other planets) It is important to define it that way, not that it is impossible, just that it is unknown how much time is needed before an alien invasion.

The reason I am framing things this way is we need to be very careful here because we are starting to turn towards speculation.
Your link is specially interesting because it has a discussion about the reason of the change in the name.
Some nudie pics or vanilla porn would probably be the least of their worries. I can imagine that a service like imgur spends the bulk of their time cleaning up the nastier bits that inevitably creep their way into such a large site. How many companies really want to inherit a high maintenance mess for such little return? At least with Tumblr and Snapchat you have a strong brand. How many average Internet users outside of Reddit (or the 18-34 male demographic) have even heard of imgur?
Perhaps you should read Principia Mathematica [1], which proves on page 379 that 1+1=2.

Norway is also near the top of the key measure of oil revenue in Europe. Switzerland has had higher GDP than major EU economies since before the EU [1]. These are poor comparisons to the UK.

The one place I was hoping not to see Brexit was on HN. Ah well. For what it's worth, if you are still in two minds after, what feels like, 6 years of campaigning, this video gives, an evidence based argument for staying. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USTypBKEd8Y The lecturer also followed it up https://news.liverpool.ac.uk/2016/06/20/eu-law-expert-respon...

I am genuinely interested in an evidence based argument for leaving and whether the benefits of leaving out strip the benefits of staying.

The most sound argument I have found is the democratic deficit created by being within the EU and the delegation of authority to the EU on certain areas of law. The elephant in the room is that we seem to have a house of 800 unelected lords and a government in power event though only 34% of the electorate voted for them.

Arguments around "putting the great back into Great Britain" and "taking control" seem to stem, as much from xenophobia and 6 years of government austerity policies.

I really wish there was a good, logical, evidence based approach to comparing both positions.
I disagree. They are differentiated because we did not understand the immediate and long term effects of both and it is difficult to change cultural norms.

As someone who has worked with victims of long term harassment (of both sexes) and have therefore seen up close such effects, I find offensive your implicit statement that psychological violence is somehow not real violence.

You just install the new Erlang VM, install Elixir 1.3, and that's it!
Elixir 1.3 is compatible with Erlang 19, and will by default use the Erlang installation available on the path, so nothing to do in particular.

If you want an easy way to install both, you can check asdf [1].

Brexit folk give just as much vagueness as Remain folk - the trust is, nobody can guarantee anything whether we remain or leave the EU.

Some Brexit folk have repeatedly claimed MEPs aren't elected, which is plainly false. Furthermore every EU law must must be ratified by all member states. They've also claimed that Turkey would join, which is unlikely in our lifetimes.

OTOH, some Remain folk plainly think that Brexit is some kind of racist plot: as another commenter mentions, businesses that don't trade with the rest of the EU don't benefit as much as those of us that do, and that's a very reasonable viewpoint.

I'm Remain - like most of London tech. My reasons are that that London draws the smartest and best people from all over Europe to start businesses here and pay taxes, and that should continue. An Australian style points system is flawed - imagine rating programmers based on their University degrees rather than their actual aptitude. However I can certainly understand the opposing viewpoint.

Assange did threaten to release a bunch of documents about Clinton that he's sure would lead to her indictment. And Obama is trying his hardest to help her avoid that. So maybe the US government is willing to "make a deal" with Assange through Sweden?

Just a theory.

... that's the whole point. You want demand to drop, because you don't have the supply to match it. Demand outstripping supply is lost revenue.
This is not quite the full picture -- there are V&V issues which are specific to machine learning systems -- but lest we put the cart before the horse, these should properly build upon a mature V&V infrastructure, toolchain support for which isn't so great in the open source world.
I think the big value with staying in the EU is passporting and the single common market. Norway and Sweden both pay to be part of this market instrument.
Well done Nicely designed
Isn't it quite obviously both? Here are the business leaders who think Britain's stronger remaining part of the EU, and you may/may not be persuaded by their arguments.
Erlang is written in a ton of quite readable C and assembly. If you like delving into the internals of advanced software, it's well worth a read. Take the HiPe compiler for example:

https://github.com/erlang/otp/tree/OTP-19.0/erts/emulator/hi...

It deals with running native and interpreted program code together, just reading the comments gives you a feel for the kind of low level concepts that go into making such an interpreter. I like this one:

/*
* Native code calls an emulated-mode closure via a stub defined below.
*
* The closure is appended as the last actual parameter, and parameters
* beyond the first few passed in registers are pushed onto the stack in
* left-to-right order.
* Hence, the location of the closure parameter only depends on the number
* of parameters in registers, not the total number of parameters.
*/
Oh that's really interesting! I went to school in the UK and they just divided it into numbered sets e.g Set 1 (top set) to Set 6 (bottom set). The US naming is an interesting affirmation of the child's difference from their peers - I've not heard of that sort of thing over here.

We do, with the Republic of Ireland... and we have a borderless travel treaty with them called the Common Travel Area which has existed in one form or another for nearly 100 years.
I quit my only professional 'full-time' job on the spot. It was a very emotional decision. However, even then I gave two weeks notice. After a week off, they hired me back as a consultant [which was a bit rocky; but at least I got sent home after 8 hours]. Since then they've hired me as a consultant multiple times and I'm glad I didn't burn that bridge.
This depends on your country. The UK's "Faster Payments" system offers <10 minute times for free among UK bank accounts. America is behind a lot of the first world in the complexity, slowness and cost of its banking system.

Plans are in progress to roll out similar systems all across the Single European Payments Area.
Same here. I don't watch TV, read news, listen radio. HN seems to be faster then most of commercial news. Especially in comparison with "popular news" my country. There are at least 2-3 days delay with "non-breaking" news and few hours with "breaking" news.

Last but not least, as you and posted articles confirmed, most of public news are useless. They are just copied from one source and have no information value for my life or better decisions. For me, AskHN category and comments from most people here is more valuable source of information.

getting out is not going to change anything that you mentioned, its like Boris trying to underline that British Steel was EU's fault... I mean what?... Its clearly the case were production has a cut back globally and the need of steel is not there anymore plus China overproducing... how's that EU?

For the UK employees that have to compete with low cost labor... I don't think that's the case mate, its an open market, if you are good at what you are doing you are going to get valued.

Lets see what you and Boris are going to say to all those people working in Universities that are going to shut down as their main source of income are EU students.
90% of the techniques for making reliable systems are careful requirements engineering and even more careful testing. There is no secret sauce.

I don't think these techniques transfer easily to the AI field. While I might be able to prove that the state machine that controls my nuclear power plant always rams in the control rods in case something bad happens, it's a lot harder to show that some fuzzy system like a neural network doesn't exhibit kill-all-humans behaviours.
When working with other people, you will deal with battles
Yes and no.

I'm an amateur here, but here's what I understand.

1) Yes, any storage capacity connected to the grid could, if run by a benevolent dictator, help the grid a lot. The basic idea of load shifting I'm sure you're familiar with, is to store energy when the load is low (and energy is cheap), and redistribute it when the load is high (and energy is expensive). By doing this, you smooth over supply and demand, reduce volatility, reduce market imperfections, reduce difficulties in planning generating capacity that is subject to wildly fluctuating demand etc. Further, this makes more renewables viable (which increase volatility/intermittency/imbalance issues, but are inevitably necessary on large scale for the future of humanity).

2) There's no such benevolent dictator. In reality there's tons of economic actors, and they have to deal with the economic reality of batteries, which are not at the moment economical (i.e. zero or positively profitable) to load shift.

i.e. a battery has limited lifetime. e.g. the Tesla Powerwall has 6.4kwh capacity, 5k cycles and costs $3k. That means you can charge and decharge a total of 32k kwh, for $3k, or in other words $9.35 cents per kwh just to store the energy. And that's before figuring in cost of installation, or the $2k inverter or the roundtrip efficiency of 92%. Now note that this is roughly the cost of electricity retail in most US states. So participating in load shifting will usually mean you're buying energy at 6 cents at a nightly rate, storing it for 9 cents, and then selling it for 10 cents at a daily rate, or something to that effect, it's a money losing proposition at the moment.

3) If you can't (or won't) aid the grid then, then it becomes a question of: do your presence on the grid help it, or vice versa. And the answer is probably that the grid would be less burdened if we didn't all pile up on it as much. Going off-grid then may be better.

4) Further, in some areas storage is renewable-empowering. e.g. in off-grid locations, or in areas where the grid price is so expensive (e.g. Hawaii), that generating your own energy and storing the excess for later when the sun's down, instead of consuming energy from the grid when the sun doesn't shine, is cheaper. (although again, even here if you'd have sold that excess energy instead of storing it, and then bought the cheap nightly rate later on, it'd probably have been even more economical.)

tl;dr, it's mostly bs. Batteries don't make economic sense in most states and connecting to the grid where possible tends to make sense in terms of economics and sustainability. And there's no surprise there, i.e. connecting to a bigger (grid) rather than an isolated (off grid) market tends to improve efficiency and allows a better distribution of scarce resources, which happens to be sustainable in this market, too.
Apple reveals unencrypted heart of iOS 10 code
So well timed after the 5th(?) anniversary of Assange moving in to the embassy it sounds like this was the plan for a while: "if we can't make him leave in 5 years, we might as well interview him there before any case becomes invalid."
Norway and Switzerland are in the EEA and Schengen, so it doesn't really matter whether they are in the EU or out of it, they benefit. They have to pay into the EU without any representation though. Not the best deal in my eyes. Note that both have agreed to Schengen, which has dramatically eased

Iceland and Greece have had economic trouble, but because of vastly different reasons (insert any link to Paul Krugman analyses of the European debt crisis here). The Troika is also not a product of the EU, it is a product of the Euro and the lack of a fiscal oversight complementing the monetary oversight (ECB).

Stay in. There is no chance of this kind of stuff happening in the UK because you aren't in the Euro.

I’m Just Now Realizing How Stupid We Are
Comments on this thread gave me loads of food for thoughts and I missed the thread to comment on it, so decided to write a short post: https://medium.com/@GedRap/when-working-with-other-people-yo...

tldr: We would like to think that all disagreements can be solved by rational reasoning, comparing alternatives and coming up with the best plan of action together. In an ideal world, yes, that would be the case. True, there are teams with perfect chemistry, aligned attitudes and views, no interpersonal friction, etc, but these teams are rare. It is naive to expect that every team to be perfect. We are not robots, and we are not working on some conveyor of code, moving from one to ticket to another, coldly and indifferently. Placing yourself into a position of other person, trying to understand their sometimes irrational motivations, and combining it with assuming the best intentions will go a long long way.
It also makes sense from a business prospective, where one tests and develops the new ideas in a separate environment and upon success - integrates the said proven healthy ideas into the trusted larger body.
He never used the word "approximately", and I think you are reading the statement(s) incorrectly because of that. Let me be more specific.

The article says:

The fundamental theorem of arithmetic
states that every positive integer can
be factorized in one way as a product
of prime numbers.

OK, so that is an initial statement to give the general idea of what's going on. There are some details that need now to be added to avoid misunderstanding. In particular, the statement needs to be interpreted carefully. Gowers goes on to say:

This statement has to be appropriately
interpreted: ...

That's what I just said above ...

... we count the factorizations 3x5x13
and 13x3x5 as the same, for instance.

So this is an example to set the scene for what is to follow. It points out that in the statement of the FTA we are going to regard to factorisations that differ only in the ordering of the factors as being the same.

Reading your other comments, it appears you are arguing against something that you actually agree with, and I suspect you have mis-read or mis-interpreted what Gowers has written.
Initially faced some bugs, now they have been removed!! Working fine!!
Initially faced some bugs, now they have been removed, app is great!! nice idea
... which is exactly what Gowers is saying in the second sentence.

I'm not going to try to translate the concepts, since I'm much too unversed in Swedish or any other law.

The prison sentences for the crimes that may apply in his case seem as far as I can tell to range between six months and ten years (that is the harshest possible sentence for rape here in Sweden, and I can only imagine that it is given under very aggravating circumstances). Also bear in mind that almost every prisoner is released on parole after serving two thirds of their sentence - anything else is an exception.

Yeah I've heard similar things about said Japanese manufacturers. One of the big reasons they are regionally headquartered in the UK is because it is part of the EU. Given that cars make up a sizable fraction (~10% I think) of our economy, it would be a disaster if even 1 major company left for foreign shores over this.

Speaking from an IT perspective, I know of quite a few companies that have brought forward datacentre builds in the Frankfurt region, prepping for a Brexit just in case. They have to do with business with the EU and that involves complying with EU data protection regulations which require the data stored in an EU country. There's a lot of business going to disappear overseas if Brexit happens.

How do you propose avoiding having to compete? Isolationism is a short-term solution.

Edit: ...a short-term solution AT BEST
Throughput does not directly equate economy. More roads leads to more scattered land use, and there is no 1:1 relation between land use patterns and economic productivity (additionally, there are many other aspects to this like qol and environmental concerns).
I would have thought Internet access was a drop in the ocean vs all the other expenses involved in operating an embassy
Exactly, if Amazon wants to keep AWS as the backbone of large parts of the internet, they need to be able to prove other business considerations don't affect it - if they ever treated Netflix any differently than another marque client they'd torpedo the trust in them from any organisation who think they might compete in the future.
Which again, does not in any way contradict anything I said.
Unrelated to the transmission fees: in general German prices are probably at least 2x, maybe even 3x from those in the US. But partly that's due to the US being ridiculously resource rich, outside of its geopolitical access to energy (traded worldwide mostly in US currency), making energy quite cheap wholesale. And partly it's due to various tariffs that push Germans towards efficiency, making energy quite expensive for the end user, but leading to Germany producing a substantially higher $ amount (gdp) per unit of energy spent than the US.
Uh and how other global economies compete ?
So you want to protect these employees by "artificial" regulations ?

The difference between this format and JSON lines is 1) the leading and trailing '['/']' for each line, 2) the convention that each line encodes an array and all arrays have the same length, and 3) the convention that the first line contains string names for the keys for the values on the remaining lines.

To clarify, JSON Lines says "Each Line is a Valid JSON Value", "The most common values will be objects or arrays, but any JSON value is permitted." It does not need to encode an object, so there needn't be "a lot of clutter".

Here's a sketch of a table parser in Python built on top of JSON Lines using conventions 2) and 3):

import json

def read_table(infile):
line = infile.readline()
keys = json.loads(line)
for line in infile:
yield dict(zip(keys, json.loads(line)))

The equivalent for a CSJ parser replaces the two "(line)" occurrences with "('[' + line + ']')".

As such, no, it's not hard to write a CSJ parser, but the performance will be slower.

I tested it with 3 columns (string, int, int) and 1456021 lines (including the header). Best of 4 for the JSON Lines + convention = 11.3 seconds. Best of 4 for CSJ = 11.8 seconds, which was slower than any of the JSON Lines parser times.

Perhaps the 8% slowdown isn't important After all, the uncompressed file size is smaller.

#bytes gzip size
JSON Lines 34316877 6561939
CSJ 31404835 6576623
savings: ~10% ~0.2%

So if the uncompressed savings is important, then use CSJ. But that's a small niche. Anyone concerned about space will use a custom format, while those who need to embed JSON objects or lists aren't going to be worried about 2 extra characters per line.
