I think centrophenoxine and racetams are fairly well tolerated. I've cycled them on and off for a few years with only positive outcomes. They've been studied for decades.

in general, have a poke around https://fuzzing.info/papers/

First, I think the next big step in fuzzing will actually be a complement to fuzzing - solving.

AFL and friends can bitbang their way to massive code coverage, but can still fail on fairly simple testcases. Some recent research[1] by the authors of Angr[2] show that by pairing the brute-force coverage and exception discovery of a tool like AFL with constraint solving tools can really dig deep into a program, by actually solving the path to a given block of code. Microsoft's infamous SAGE fuzzer does this IIRC.

Second, I think there are still massive oportunities for fuzzing closed-source programs, as well as programs with tricky state, such as browsers or network daemons.

I believe this is wrong for two reasons.

Some projects are only viable at a super-national level, either because of cost or resources (such as access to specialised technical centres in other countries or a wider level of expertise). Brexit doesn't stop the UK contributing to such projects but it does make it significantly more difficult by withdrawing from the established structures in place.

The other reason is that much of the net cost to the EU involves paying for the common legal and political platform that makes international trade much easier. It may superficially seem that the UK will save money but in practice it is highly likely (and according to a strong consensus of international experts) that removing access to these structures will have a strongly negative impact on the UK's trade. This is likely to be very bad for UK science.

I am not a financial professional so hopefully someone else will chime in, but...

My understanding is that your 401k can't be pilfered directly by the government since they don't hold it. This is different from pensions where the company actually held the pension money and changing the terms led them to actually take it.

The government CAN get at your 401k money using the same technique you are calculating against with respect to ROTH accounts. That is, since it is tax deferred, you're essentially betting that you'll be in a lower or at least equivalent tax bracket compared to current when it comes time to pull that money out.

It's conceivable that they just up the tax rates enough that when it comes time to pull your money, the government can get at as much of your funds as it likes based on taxes alone.

I'm sure there are other risks involved, but that seems like the most obvious.
The HN title misquotes the actual FTC site's title. The FTC title says it "failed to adquately disclose", not that it "failed to disclose". Omitting the word adequately changes the meaning substantially. In fact, WB did disclose the payment but it was the manner in which they disclosed it that the FTC objected to -- not the failure to disclose it.

Going to play the devil's advocate here in regards to 'juniors' disregarding the wisdom and experience of 'seniors'. Maybe the advice, experience you're giving is not backed up with any evidence? They may be taking a analytical and evidence based approach and simply choosing between you're advice or a celebrity tweeter as both lacking any evidence and thus being both equal. Possibly the silver bullet gives them a upper hand of using the latest marketing trends for reciter's to land their next job that pays 10K more?

I find it a bit of a juxtaposition that on one hand you're undecided about more engineering approaches and certification to building software. Then on the other hand you're frustrated that your advice or experience is not valued? To me it seems like you've answered your own question why your advice isn't valued by hip new guys.

Recently we built a prototype for the replacement of a simple HTTP service with API Gateway and Lambda instead of classic nginx and WSGI apps on EC2.

It is very promising technology (even if I'm not totally buying into the serverless idea yet) but the cost of API Gateway considering a significant load on the service was prohibitive. I would really like someone to prove us wrong and see if we missed something in our analysis. Until then, I find that this is usable only for relatively low traffic services.
> Still, last week’s news raises the question of what will happen to the company’s other clinical laboratory in Scottsdale, Arizona, at which 90 percent of the company’s tests are processed. So far, that lab has passed regulatory muster, and the company said it will remain open for now.

I find it interesting that their Arizona lab passed...would this imply they do indeed have a legitimate product?

The rule isn't that it's illegal to take money. The rule is that “unfair or deceptive acts or practices” are illegal with respect to advertising. Obviously that's a very broad stroke, so there are guidelines[1] put out by the FTC which give examples of what is considered fair and what's deceptive. In particular the disclosure should be part of the ad, not located somewhere else that a party might not have access to (e.g. YouTube videos are often embedded. You won't see the description box in that case, and will have no indication that you're watching paid content.) It's WB's product; they're the one's who needed to make sure their paid ads were compliant. Kjellberg/PewDiePie is based in Sweden, so the FTC guidelines don't concern him except insofar as he's doing commerce in the US.

>This statement makes me concerned that they have greatly devalued technical skills. [...] When technical ability is devalued so much in a company,

I'm not going to justify their thinking but I'll attempt to explain where it probably comes from.

The context for their perspective is crucial. Notice that their assertion for "less time to develop technical skills" is followed by a sentence praising graduates of "code bootcamps". They also prominently espouse Ember.js[1].

To make sense of that, we can (roughly) divide programmers into two groups: (1) CRUD LOB Line-Of-Business (2) algorithmic/embedded

(1) is programming the enterprisey, forms & fields, "back office" apps. It was COBOL, dBASE/Clipper, Visual Basic, Microsoft Access, C# Winforms, 4GLs like Oracle Forms & SAP ABAP, and now Javascript frameworks such as Ember.js/Angularjs. Basically, slapping a client GUI in front of a database backend. Whether that client GUI technology is Visual Basic, or mobile phone Javascipt, or iOS Swift app... that choice is more about whatever zeitgeist of programming you happen to be living in rather than any inherent difficulty levels between the technologies. The idea is to take the high-level frameworks+libraries and glue them together to deliver value to the business.

(2) is programming of realtime kernel schedulers, complex distributed computing algorithms, search engines, database storage engines, machine learning, ray tracing graphics and physics engines for video games, audio DSP, traversing graph nodes, control theory for drones and Mars Rover, etc. This would be more "engineering" type of coding rather than "integration/glue" coding. Typical programmers we'd think of in this group would be Jeff Dean (Google MapReduce/Tensorflow), John Carmac (Doom), Fabrice Bellard (ffmpeg).

The programmers in group(2) wouldn't say it's easy to take "leaders" and add programming skills to them. However, that sentiment is often expressed by group(1) programmers. I'm not saying it's the "right" philosophy but it's an observation I've seen repeatedly. The CRUD programming is often seen as just a longer more elaborate version of programming the Tivo / thermostat / lawn sprinkler system. It doesn't seem like group(1) is "devaluing" themselves but instead, they honestly just think "programming skill" isn't really a big deal.

As the real-world consequences of various types of software grow, society's expectations for them to be carefully built and well understood will grow. [0]

Bowing down to the techno-gods and expecting them to make better decisions than we do has serious ramifications when the decision making is literally inscrutable. Right now the conversation seems to be hovering at the level of "shut up you luddites, and accept it." That doesn't mean the system should be trusted. In fact, it shows the opposite by illustrating those who would use the systems have nothing but contempt for those they would use the system on.

A simple example of how an inscrutable system could be considered benign is making it well-constrained and doing a failure modes analysis. But the question becomes: is the analysis preformed? thorough? and are the results acceptable? For things like self-driving cars: of course. It'd have to be to get on the road. When the failure modes aren't both blindingly obvious and unquestionably unacceptable to the consumer? "lulz, move fast and brake things!"

I fear the only way to improve the systems thinking around machine learning at fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants companies are things like the EU regulation forcing the issue. That's a bit depressing, isn't it? Hopefully the level of discourse can be improved, even though the providers of such technology are incentivized to paint resistance as simpletons that just don't get it.

Agreed, there is no "concrete evidence" and no way of supporting any of the sides. But let's just imagine for a while, what if it would be the exact same opposite?

Personally, I'm not happy with the GMO terminology "misconceptions" in this article.

"""Misconception: Humans have been making G.M.O.s for millenniums. Actually: While selective breeding is a form of genetic modification, G.M.O. refers to foods made with specific forms of modern biotechnology."""

the problem is that the term itself, "genetically modified organism" mneans a lot more than what the terminology is legally or colloquially implies. Modern biotechnology doesn't have some exclusive lock on the term, since it's generic enough to include selective breeding and x-ray mutagenesis.

This kind of inaccuracy in the naming of the term doesn't help anybody.
I'm not a proponent of blind regulation, and actually, I prefer less regulation, generally. But, do you have evidence to back up your implicit claim that less regulation yields better results?

I ask that with complete curiosity and humility - my perception is of experts telling me for decades that awesomeness is attainable with more deregulation. And, when awesome doesn't come, they say that it's because we didn't deregulate enough. Then, they ask for more.

But, I truly want to know if my perceptions are off - i.e. changes could be happening slowly enough that I don't see the immediate results.

As Isamu quotes from the paper: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12079343

> We summarize the potential impact that the European Union’s new General Data Protection Regulation will have on the routine use of machine learning algorithms. Slated to take effect as law across the EU in 2018, it will restrict automated individual decision-making (that is, algorithms that make decisions based on user-level predictors) which “significantly affect” users. The law will also create a “right to explanation,” whereby a user can ask for an explanation of an algorithmic decision that was made about them. We argue that while this law will pose large challenges for industry, it highlights opportunities for machine learning researchers to take the lead in designing algorithms and evaluation frameworks which avoid discrimination.

Turn Frustration into Business Inspiration
This is exactly what I was thinking as I read the article. Pokemon Go is one of the worst possible examples for this problem. It could even be the app that takes AR mainstream; not just the AR view but the concept of using your local neighborhood as an app-enhanced playground. We've had things like Foursquare already, but it never inspired the same kind of joy of discovery as Pokemon Go.

If businesses are smart, they'll capitalize on the trend and make more apps that encourage people to go play outside. That makes people thirsty and hungry for local refreshments and might even inspire conversations about opportunities around town which they might not otherwise have explored.

>It seems the author is trying to smuggle in a particular philosophy under the guise of science.

I couldn't agree more.

Further, I'll add another reason why one might find trouble with that statement: It seems that because of the usefulness of the scientific method, as far as I can tell the effect on human psychology appears to be such that we are in a time and place where we are buying into the idea that the ratio of x: human understanding, to y, the body of knowledge necessary for answering such questions the author considers is getting reasonably close to 1, otherwise the author would not say that.

It seems it may be the case that it is entirely possible there is even other intelligent life in the universe, who upon encountering us attempting to answer difficult questions, would regard us as we would regard our pet cats sitting in front of a book on particle physics.

Even still possible is that there is intelligent life lying outside our observable universe, or even outside our universe entirely, regarding us in a similar manner.

In the framework of our current knowledge, we look into the past at our forebearers and consider how much more we know; yet, they too looked into the past at their forebearers, and considered the same.

Saying the rise of ad blocking is a manifestation of the invisible hand doing its thing is like saying the rise of socialism or even looting is a manifestation of the invisible hand in response to rising inequality.

See what I mean?

So yes, if you define "invisible hand" in the broad way that you do, then as long as we have democracy, all social and political developments are invisible hand actions. I'm fine with that definition but libertarians and free-market worshipers would categorically reject that definition. They specifically mean the invisible hand of the market, i.e. of buying and selling decisions[1]. Not end-runs around the market such as voting for wealth redistribution, looting, ad blocking, or charging consumers for product A by "taxing" product B (which is what funding product A via advertising for product B is).
