Do you mean in Unicode or in general?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logic_gate#Symbols
It's not bad, but it's complicated, as it requires an O(n) algorithm to jump to a specific character. Unicode should have been capped at 16 bits, and doubling text files in size is fine. An alternate representation of simplified UTF-8 would have kept compatibility with old ASCII files.
You know, I'd much rather drop a plastic ornament on the floor than a glass one.

Oh man, I remember googling that years ago now. That was fun. Now I use Vim and Visual Studio Code for all my editing, but because my Vim is so customized, if I remote into a server I'm more likely to reach for nano instead.
You don't have to fully validate it, just don't fail so spectacularily that it corrupts the heap or crashes the whole program.

Ideally a corrupt record only breaks the requests that read that record with an HTTP 500 or something similar.

Yes, I wasn't contradicting that. I was explaining what the issue was.
The success of the unicodepowersymbol proposal inspired me to suggest a couple characters to Unicode (the Bitcoin sign and IBM's group mark from 1960s mainframes, which were accepted). The point is that Unicode really is open to proposals from random people; you don't need to part of a big company to influence Unicode.

That sounds like comparing apples and oranges, though. For instance, according to the documentation, every transaction in Snowflake locks the entire table, so it doesn't seem like it would be usable for the kind of OLTP workloads that Cockroach is designed for.

(Although I admit that I haven't tested this assumption, since Snowflake appears to be proprietary.)
How to put together the ideal group of angel investors
I misspoke. I just tried doing what I described, with String. Squeak notified me about "obsolete references" to the original class name in existing source code. It's been a long time since I did this. I might've seen that before when I did this, and I guess it left me with the impression that it was not capable of adapting to the change by itself. The name change didn't cause a problem in continuing to use String, even in the compiler, such as doing in a workspace: 'hello world ', 'hi there'.

I am familiar with Method Finder. I've used it several times with varying degrees of success. Sometimes I found that what I was trying to describe couldn't be expressed with the conventions it uses. I am also familiar with the fact that all of that functionality is accessible from a set of objects, but my understanding is you have to explicitly use those objects in your code to look up by description. If you just say "Classname new", you're not going to get that. That's what I was talking about (at least trying to :) ) in my previous comment.

BTW, I read Ted Kaehler's paper on using the aforementioned objects to try to access objects, if I remember correctly, within Squeak strictly by description, as a means to try out methods for "computing through negotiating with objects." It seemed to come with a little difficulty, as I remember him talking about some number of "destructive actions" that happened as a result. Interesting experiment. I had the thought around then that in order for negotiation to happen safely, the receiving system would need to put objects in a "test harness" to prevent such destructive actions.

Working with Method Finder was one of the examples I used as inspiration for trying to "sketch" a language where the idea was I could "program by suggestion," which I described in an earlier comment here (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11945188).

Well that's true to some extent, although it remains to be seen how the motors they're using compare in reliability to an engine and conventional rotor system. Engines and rotors are pretty reliable when operated within specs.

In any case, the controller is probably going to be the bigger reliability factor here, and having more rotors doesn't help with that.

:( such a sad truth.
Yes, but they have alternate italic forms, for example. Sure, some one of the glyphs like с doesn't have an alternate italic form. Since the other ones do, it would be weird to only assign a separate codepoint to some of them and overlap the others. It would be a workable solution, but still weird.

I think Pearl's arguments are primarily about science and humans, not about "scientists" as such. As a human, there is a very clear boundary distinction between the "in" and the "out". Furthermore, there seems be a strong tendency in human thinking to classify the world into objects and their causes or effects. So, for example, there's an acausal theory of physics but then the surrounding explanations are all narrative-based heuristics. And those narratives seem to be easier to process and manipulate, for humans.

Also as Pearl also mentioned, this really only became a point of interest when computer science and artificial intelligence got going, because there non-narrative models seem to be successful as well, like neural networks, finite element methods, and so on.

A similar perspective applies to p-hacking; it's not so much that people deviate from the "one true way" of doing statistics, as that there are a hundred conflicting myths of what statistics should be and often they pick the one that is most convenient, rather than searching through to find the most applicable.

I meant that learning about ML and getting some field experience helps you figuring out when to use ML and how. For how to get into, there are a lot of resources and state of the art algorithms/papers/implementations are freely available. For me working on ML projects at my job and talking to some experts was ideal, but I am sure it is possible to learn on one's own with enough motivation. Good luck!
A popular model is to use wireless until enough you have enough customers in a building to justify building out fiber so you can supply more bandwidth. Even without fiber you could have a 50 unit building with half the units streaming 4K@30Mbps simultaneously and have enough bandwidth left over for typical web use.
Injunction is a way to prevent more damage from occurring. So generally speaking, injunctions :

1) are only available either during a trial or as a last resort (if you can make a good case the defendant won't pay even if the judge compels them)

2) you'd still have to prove more damage will be done if injunction isn't there. Those have to be real damages, with real monetary amounts on them.

This is western law, it's practical. Anything you do that either doesn't bother anyone, or you prevent damage from occuring is legal, no matter how much it is against (civil) law.

The fact that something violates copyright, by itself, is not sufficient to get anything done in court at all.

Your Friendly North Korean Network Observer (2014)
For much of my career I was in the same camp you're in. I did field tech, sysadmin (Windows), and then went the IT management route for a long time. Early on I did pick up some vi, but only because in my field tech days I was working on small doctor office billing systems: single servers usually running Xenix(!) or SCO OpenServer(!) and vi was the only editor available: to this day I can reliably get into insert mode, save the file, and exit vi and no more without looking it up. Emacs I had the same breadth of skills until about a month ago. I always used a GUI text editor of some sort, though sometime specialized.

In more recent years, I've oddly enough become much more directly involved in software development. I live in Sublime Text and occasionally an IDE... Eclipse, Netbeans... QT Creator a fair amount. But I've been learning Emacs: I need to write estimates and, depending on the engagement, track time and such. I've found that, of all the online services and other software I have, the best tool to get things done was Emacs & org-mode with some fairly extensive config to customize the org-mode behavior; I even got Gnus up and running. I couldn't use it for coding because about 75% of what I do is database development (PostgreSQL schema stuff, PL/pgSQL) and I couldn't get the damn indentation behavior behaved so now I'm in both: Sublime Text for development and Emacs for organization.

> in many cultures the origin of words no longer play a part in their meaning anymore

Even though that might be true the original meaning tells a lot about the culture. Ignoring that leads to cultural appropriation (I hate that phrase). For example "God damn" is a modern slang which is probably not even considered a slang but few centuries ago it was an extremely serious slang with serious repercussions. I don't think that phrase and its meaning can be translated in polytheistic dominated languages like Sanskrit. A cool example is that when as a Hindu I find it completely normal to worship Goddess of death I often find even non religious Christians finding it disgusting.
Good luck with this. I've tried something similar but didn't get much traction (I also didn't try too hard).

> a few recent Chakra improvements coming up in the Windows 10 Anniversary Update

As much as I am happy about Microsoft's decision to join the evergreen movement, I'd be even happier if they did not attach browser updates to OS updates. Considering how reluctant people about updating their OS, it kind of defeats the purpose of evergreen when it takes months for people to move to a new version. For example, accroding to StatsCounter[1] Edge 13 is used on 2.5% of desktops while Edge 12 is still on 0.25%, that's like 1 in 10 users of Edge is stuck on an outdated version.

>Deferred parsing for event-handlers

Nice, though, it's funny how we have invested so much into libraries and coding practices that minimize the amount of DOM event-handlers to finally side-step the issue by deferring their parsing.

>The results below show Microsoft Edge continuing to lead both benchmarks.

For about a week until the next version of Chrome or Firefox beats the numbers and announces that they are "continuing to lead".

Doubling text files is a waste for the most part, but what makes it tolerable is compression. Still 16 bits would not be enough, it's only 65536 different code pages, less than half of what is currently in Unicode. 24 bit is sufficiently out of allignment with modern hardware and algorithms, so 32 bit it is for efficiency. That is now 4 times the size, and compression is now a requirement.

In any case, Utf8 has a place, and if you want easy manipulation and search, convert it to Utf32 - it's fixed width.
Agreed.

Quick workaround:
Firefox has a reader mode (the little book-icon at the right side of the address field) that renders the main content of a page black-on-white in a very eye-friendly (read: huge) font size. I used to wonder what that was for, but these days I come across unreadable or unreadably ugly pages more often, and I have come to like it.
That's not really my field. If i recall i will ask the expert to give me a link to post here.

Yeah they ran out of v4 addresses a little while back, but you can always get an IPv6 address from them. To avoid having most people get confused by IPv6 though they seem to have some form of layered IPv4 NAT (one IP per building or something, and then your "own" IP), which in a different building I discovered and found more confusing than "oh look, just straightforward v6 only".

This theory was presented at the International Symposium on Ball Lightning in 2010 [1]. The proceedings were published in 2012. This is not a simple pdf document on a random web site.

Prof stands for Professor as Auguste Meessen was physics professor at the Université Catholic de Louvain in Belgium. He is now retired. This is a title one associate to the name like Dr for doctor. Your ignorence of these conventions tells a lot.

Obviously you are also not competent to judge the scientific pertinence and validity of the content because none of your arguments address the content.

Your arguments to consider him a crackpot boils down to the diversity of his research topics and the number of papers in respectable physics journal. According to the latter argument you would consider Higgs as a crackpot. I don't see a correlation between the diversity of research topic and the scientific invalidity of the work.

You write that you don't bother reading such publications. Who cares what you read ? My point is that if a scientist elaborates a new theory on a subject, it is expected, at least in the scientific community, to do a research of prior art. What I pointed out is that this was not properly done and the referees did not do their job too. It is very likely that the referee were not well aware of the Ball Lightning research domain. Looking at the publications of the International Symposium on Ball Lightning sounds to me like an obvious source. It's not a random pdf text on a random web site. Even then, a google search should have located it.

Your arguments have nothing to do with true science and you completely missed the point I made.

Prof. auguste Meessen is not following Hacker News. He is too busy with his research. He currently finalize the elaboration of a theory explaining dark matter. It is a follow-up of his theory on space time quantization. I hope it can be published soon. Prof Meessen is 87 years old. My relation to him or the color of my hair have absolutely nothing to do with the scientific validity and pertinence of his work.

Years ago I raced in the Ducati Desmodue series in the UK. Class B, aircooled, twin cylinder Supersport and Monster 600 bikes, putting out around 50-55bhp. Once you had those things set up properly and on a twistier circuit, like Cadwell Park or even Brands Indy to an extent, sliding past bigger bikes through the corners was a lot of fun. Even if they passed again on the straight, one could often pass back under brakes into the corner. Good times.
