I'm curious about the steps taken actually. Are you approved in the State of California by the state board as a fuel delivery/transportation company? Do you intend to go to court if not?

I didn't remember this being too bad. I just checked with Elm 0.17 using the tutorial's [1] nesting/3-gif-pair.elm as the main. Size is 209k out of elm-make, 60k minified (closure compiler advanced), and 19k gzipped. I wouldn't use it for validating a form field but the size seems completely reasonable for a language runtime.

Using an obscure feature of one TLS library seems like a bad strategy for avoiding bugs.

That logic ignores the current state.

The logic is: "People are not able to drive. Thanks to X, they now are, but have probability Y of dying. Given that Y > 0, X should not be granted."

With X = driving license, and Y = human car fatalities, that logic concludes that driving licenses should not be granted.

The Trolley problem is an interesting ethical question because it is not a daily occurrence. This scenario, on the other hand, is.

To me, the critical factor is that the risk of death is equal or reduced statistically, which so far seems to be the case.

Haha. I'm not sure when Royce started using and he may have been on it from the start but 'juiced to the gills' is a joke of a description when he was regularly facing much larger opponents.

I'm imagining a future where there are multiple location based games and local businesses will need a way to keep track of all the games and which ones drive foot-traffic.

I'm also imagining a startup that manages all of a businesses "in game" listings so they don't have to deal with going in and out of apps all day.
Don't really know how to feel. It's kinda like it's disingenuous hype. Sure most of all these "omg look at Finland" facts are mostly true, but they come at a cost.

It's a pain in the ass to have a business or a high salary here. Everything is expensive and you could end up paying 60% taxes of your salary, after the employer pays taxes on your salary. The bureaucracy can get ridiculous too, it's like they don't want to have businesses here. The system works with a small population but I don't think it could ever scale.

Basically, if you're ok with being nothing more then middleclass, it's a great place to live, but the ambitious people who really bring in the money and pay the majority of taxes aren't living nearly as good as they could elsewhere.

I keep looking at the salaries of US jobs with my title and I'd make so much more money there, and have more left after all the taxes. Then again I had a free education and the healthcare is pretty much free and decent.

Maybe it's one of those "grass is greener etc." type deals.
I'd like to see more coverage of the libertarian candidates this cycle. Neither major party seems likely to fix this issue -- Republicans will dismiss it and Democrats will pander and apply band-aids (all the while increasing the scope of government).

And the libertarians this time around are serious candidates -- president and VP nominees are both two-term governors. Pretty hard to ignore when the major candidates are so bad.

I hear you. Right now, statistics are limited and misleading. Frankly, I think Tesla is intentionally misleading with statistics (the miles aren't apples-to-apples but Tesla is using them as if they are).

That's not a fair comparison at all. That's an actual bloodsport, which the UFC is not.

A fight wasn't stopped when a gladiator couldn't defend himself. In a Roman arena, you fought to the fucking death. Maybe against an opponent 3 times your size. Maybe against a den of lions. People held and watched these events with the explicit purpose of watching other people die.

In the UFC, once you are unable to defend yourself the fight is over. In the UFC, you can submit an opponent. Sometimes that means a fight lasts 10 seconds, with not a drop of blood spilled.

That's as apples and oranges as a comparison gets.
Hellll no. The addition of grappling / submission as a way to end a fight actually makes mma much safer on the whole than boxing. Striking takes less precedence in mma and becomes more situational. Many fights are won with armbars or similar submissions, which are much, much less traumatic long-term than sustaining nothing but blows to the head in every fight. Additionally i'd argue mma referees are more conservative than boxing refs, stopping fights earlier and being quicker to prevent injury. I can't overstate how fucking brutal boxing is, how many fights i've seen where the ref takes far too long to end the fight. When you talk about people like george foreman, or even a newer boxer like gennady golovkin, these are much more powerful strikers than anyone in mma. George foreman, despite being a good person, probably gave several people brain damage throughout his career. Boxing might not look as flashily violent but it's MUCH worse for the athletes long-term.
I went for iterations - up, down, up, down, up, down. So it seems to track. I left an upvote to make sure it stuck when I come back in a few hours to revisit.
I think a job board is a pretty good, typical web app that is a little different than the traditional examples (ecommerce store, CRM, blog).

Job board has multiple different views based on roles (job board admin, job poster, job seeker), a few basic CRUD forms, sorting/filtering/searching (as simple or advanced as you'd like), optional payments for posting fee or premium listings, transactional emails (your job posting is expiring, a new job was been added, etc), optional WYSIWYG editor for previewing/formating job posts, the list goes on and on.
It'd be hard to say what most users prefer. I would venture to guess that we're all conditioned to vote before collapsing comments simply because we've never had the option to collapse comments until today. So behavior preferences will change over time.

However, I'll hypothesize that it's preferable (overall) to have more friction on collapsing comments. A lot of great discussion happens in response to even a mediocre top-level comment, and forcing the user to take a few extra moments to skim the child-comments will increase the serendipitous discovery of these nested gems. Furthermore, the problem of a mediocre top-level comment with mediocre nested comments being at the actual top of the discussion is mitigated by the ability for people to downvote the thread, as has been done (with varying levels of efficacy) until today.

Not sure why this got downvoted, its a reasonable point if cynical.

You could say the same thing about America though, there are still many wealthy families that can trace wealth back to slave ownership. In addition we massacred the Native Americans and took control of a massive wealth of natural resources. None of us came into life on a level playing field. We aren't necessarily responsible for the actions of our ancestors but I think we have to acknowledge the cumulative effect that they had on our world.

We will just go in blame circles forever as long as we cling to the notion that we are particularly responsible for our good or bad fortune (beyond on average minor changes based on personal choices - and I say minor once you average it out over the entire population, some people might experience drastic changes by making a fortuitous decision but many other people made significant efforts that do not result in large gains).

If we can get over this notion and agree that everyone should have equal access to food, water, housing, security, and education no matter what, then we can put all this who did what to who bullshit behind us. Even if there are cumulative cultural issues related to past discrimination they would be so much easier to deal with once the brunt of inequality has been dealt with.

I am not particularly optimistic for this though because people who either by ability or a lucky roll of the dice become wealthy (or already were already) have such a massive psychological hurdle to overcome to accept that what happened to them simply cannot happen to anyone, regardless of ability or work ethic.
The linked article treats revenue as value, which is obvious BS.

The value of Lucas to Disney is much higher than the $4B price tag either Lucas or UFC yielded, but a lot of that stems from Disney's amazing ability to execute on it. UFC seems more capable of standing alone as a business.
Isn't there a connection between anti-depressants and suicide? Basically they give you enough energy to get going, but not enough to break the depression so you have just enough to go and kill yourself.

I have automatic in my car, and it can read my gas gage. Could I just loop it in on this process and never have to think about gas again?
Well, sure. But Norway's production is 1.9 million barrels per day (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_oil_produ...), and its population is 5.1 million, so 1.9M * 40 * 365 / 5.1M = $5.4K per person per year.

The US's GDP would be yet higher if it could sustain an increase in petroleum production by 75% or so.
Oh I certainly didn't mean for my comment to come off as they have nothing new to do only that all of those issues, as far as I can tell, are engineering issues where yes they'll have to come up with new stuff but that what they want to accomplish is perfectly within the realm of discovered physics, etc.

So I just wanted to say it's an engineering issue at this point. But as far as I can tell that's still true maybe I just didn't convey that very well initially though I'm certainly not an expert at this so I concede I could certainly be wrong as well.

Perhaps my comment doesn't add as much to the conversation as I thought it would. Oh well.

The "rules" often cited aren't because there will be a problem in most cases if you don't follow them. Instead, its because they will be problem in a very small (much <1%) of cases if you don't follow them, and the potential cost is very high.

(I'm not -- at least, not exclusively, or in general perception -- white, have lived in parts of CA with lots of diversity, and have often failed to follow the "rules" without problem -- and don't think any of that is unexpected even with the "rules" being valid.)

It was a sad day when my old company shuttered the web-based VPN portal, which allowed us to access the company intranet through a browser window. Closing it down required us remote workers to connect and send all of our traffic through AnyConnect, killing our connection speeds.

We do plan to make sure the Internet Archive has every story that gets posted to HN. They made an API for this and at some point (hopefully soon!) we'll start calling it. So that will help some.

Absolutely agree and I find it baffling we would even be typing this. Breaking laws should not always be punishable by death even if the law you are breaking is "don't resist police authority". Sheesh. "Off with their heads!" is the punishment for everything? That doesn't seem reasonable. There are lots of laws I agree with but that I wouldn't say someone should die if they break it.

Enterprise cloud platforms are captured. Niche apps, like "Forecasting for Media Revenue models" or "Foreign Exchange Risk Management for Discrete Manufacturers" are in strong demand.

Really any forecasting, CPQ, quote-to-order, or month end close app that saves users a few hours and clicks per month will demonstrate immediate value and sell itself.

There's always a risk that the platform vendor will fill the niche, so I keep iterating and addressing more edge cases to become the "premium" product with high touch support.

The main reason being that the packets are put into queues bound to hardware threads (VCPU's), which the illumos kernel treats as processors. Sunay, the principal author of the FireEngine explains it in detail in the second link I cited. Long story short, on illumos based systems network performance scales linearly with available processors, and on systems where the NIC's PHY would be faster, a kernel tunable, ip_squeue_fanout (edittable via /etc/system), enables one to change the packet processing methodology. One of the techniques which enable the FireEngine to provide high network performance is eschewing mutex locks in favor of multiple parallel queues and parallel queue drainage. Should I also explain how mutex locks function, and why they are detrimental to performance as opposed to enqueueing?

I can't give you an exact reject rate but it went through at least 3 iterations before being acceptable. As for tolerances and material properties (overall strength of the part) the Stratasys machine is superior in both aspects. As I mentioned in the conclusion of the article, I would like to do more experiments on the parts including dimensional analysis and possibly a tensile or compression test. Having 1 data point (1 tool from each machine) wouldn't be the best results for an accurate comparison but I would still be interested in the results.

Carter correctly points out that the massive growth of
criminal and regulatory law means that almost anyone can
potentially end up in the same situation as Eric Garner.

So does Carter and author suggest reducing the number of laws? Or should we just take it that law enforcement abusing power causing deaths are inevitable?
The operative words here are "refuses to pull over." If people are allowed to run from law enforcement, there is no law enforcement at all.
Star Wars is very valuable, but I think you overestimate -- $4bil does not factor in the cost of making new movies, which is in the hundreds of millions.

Consider another way: had Disney not bought Star Wars, do you believe they could have built a franchise or franchises of a similar money-printing status for that $4bil? Pirates of the Caribbean have earned close to $4bil:

UFC is a running institution that other parties work to endure and build. Gyms find and train fighters (UFC does not need to participate in this). Those Gyms hype fighters and build fanbases that feed back in as a tributary to UFC. 8x rev for a quickly growing sport franchise that essentially 'owns' fighting outside of Boxing is not terribly high a valuation.

You have to bear in mind that the dollars productivity of a programmer (how much money that programmer brings) doesn't only depend of his/her skills, but also of the company he's working. A programmer can bring tens of millions a year if he works in HFT in a hedge fund, much less otherwise. Companies in the Bay area have access to more funding, and are (I assume) willing to pay good programmers the high salaries you mention to be able to bring quicker their products to market. A standard company isn't in that situation and paying 400k for a top programmer, as good as he may be, isn't probably just worth it (at least if that programmer is an individual contributor).

iOS really doesn't provide a way for other vendors in an inner ring of consumer trust and power to deal with this.

> The UFC stops the fight when you are unable to defend yourself.

Don't boxing refs stop the fight when they think the fighter can't continue (e.g. can't answer/focus)? I'm pretty sure I've seen that.

> Also, you can look at the number of deaths per year in each sport. Boxing has around 10 per year. The UFC has never had a death, but MMA has had a few, over the last few years.

Boxing is equivalent to MMA, not the UFC. I think people on both sides of this particular point aren't being very clear on the distinctions unless it's beneficial to their specific point.
