I agree that there is a large chunk of Trump supporters that will not be swayed by fact-checking. However that's still a vastly important thing to do because they goal is not to sway those that are unreachable already but rather to sway the chunk that still can be reached.

On a larger picture: I regard the fact that a large chunk of people by now seem oblivious to facts and unreachable for civilized dialogue as the threatening streak in the last major votes, see brexit, see the rise of the AFD in germany. The crucial question for the next coming years will in my opinion be how we can enter a reasonable discourse with people that see every statement as a bipartisan issue that must be decided on principle, regard all measured statements as lies and political correctness and are unwilling to compromise on anything. We live in interesting times indeed.

I think the article/blog post is missing a key point in that the employee came to the manager asking what he thought.

This is a critical role that the manager plays that the article decides to come up with a unreferenced social psychology manipulation solution when there is a greater problem at hand.... the employee is nervous about shipping the product and wants approval.

The reason why this is because a great manager is supposed to protect and shield employees from the outside so that they can feel at ease with making decisions and working with out fear of making some mistake that costs there job (unlike the article I can site like 5 or so Harvard Business Review articles written by experts that show this is often the reason why employees come to ask questions like that.. yes I'm being snide but I think "What got you here want get you there" is basically on overrated Dale Carnegie rewritten).

Not getting any input sends a message of "I don't really care about your work". And if you really wanted to coach and you really believe this arm chair psychology then why not send a link of the article to the employee asking the advice and say "I would like to give some input but I want to assure you that I think you own this project... etc etc...".

Education is a powerful thing... manipulation is not.
>> Doing so makes it easy to keep everything synchronised; it's the abstraction Céu uses to great effect for its synchronous concurrency model[0]. The only limitation is that you need to keep your updates small and fast enough to finish before the next update is triggered, but that's a good goal to strive for anyway.

I think the usual way games typically implement more or less what you are describing but without the hard-realtime update constrains, is what is commonly referred to as a 'fixed timestep'.

It's what I used to implement the main loop of the game I'm currently working on, which has an 'action replay' function that has to be capable of producing the exact same gameplay sequence based on recorded input events, which means 100% accurate, discrete and predictable updates to the game state. It's pretty cool to record some gameplay on actual hardware, then replay it in the simulator, which has completely different performance characteristics, and get a pixel-perfect reproduction of the gameplay clip :-). Extremely useful for gameplay debugging and prototyping as well.

There's a nice article here [1] that explains the concept much better than I could, so I'll just refer to that instead ;-)

> But for simple games these are not that useful. Simple games seem very well suited for the imperative, global state model.

I think this indicates a bias -- resulting from years of programming games in these models.

I think pure FP in the form of FRP is a far better match for simple games than the imperative, global state model.

Show HN: RemindMe, a reminder bot on Messenger
I wonder if the ruling would be different if Power had done the scraping client-side instead of using its servers. For example, if they had distributed a tweaked Facebook app for jailbroken devices that allowed users to "log into" Facebook and scrape data using their own device and Internet connection.

Or, more simply, a third party app that users install on their phone and calls the "private" Facebook API directly.

Would the same arguments hold?
I find in most situations where I find myself, I only have r to try and judge one or a few persons. Judging a whole people seems to be a much harder, if even possible task.

In either case, wouldn't the acceptable judging criteria have to depend on the particular use case? Or might there be some universally good criteria?

Does this support uint16, fp16 and fp32 channel resolution for dealing with hdr, tiff, and exr images?

Can it maintain that bit-depth while applying image operations?

I find this is where ImageMagick and GraphicsMagick falls down (it converts everything to 8bit images upon read) which was fine a decade ago, but not now.

It blows my mind that nearly all image processing libraries in wide usage are uint8 per channel.
I will add, thanks. But it uses binary SSH, it's not efficient.

The maxim I was taught was "If it's a question of good v. better; let the employee's decision stand; if it's a question of right v. wrong, intercede and direct, nudge if possible."

When you get input you appreciate, you intrinsically appreciate it.

The challenge is that statistically, the more senior guy understands why changes are needed, while the more junior guy is less likely to understand the context, or probabilistic benefit of the offered change.

So, this has to be tempered, and like all things, has to be evaluated on a case by case basis.

That's changed in the second edition of the book, based on the feedback I had from many people who were teaching ggplot2 to first time R users. If you've never used R before, neither base graphics nor ggplot2 is intuitive, so you're better off learning one paradigm and sticking to it.

Context matters. It's not the same when the context is different (a.k.a "abstraction's downside" - comparing apples and oranges made easy by ignoring - abstracting away - the differences as if they don't matter, without bothering to show that's true).
We have partnered with a startup (we'll announce who soon enough) who shared a lot of ideas about chip to chip I/O with myself. While they call it a SerDes, it is infact a source synchronous (clock forwarded) link that is 5 bits over 6 wires. It is silicon proven, and is capable of up to 125Gb/s over 12mm while being a little over 10x more energy efficient (in terms of pJ/bit) than other available VSR SerDes. Obviously it is short reach over PCB, but we imagine (yet to be tested) we can extend that reach a bit more using a more exotic PCB laminate (Megtron, Rogers, etc), or going over wire (tested to go over 6 inches using a HuberSuhner SMA cable). Right now, we are only using it to go between chips in a Multi Chip Module, or under 12mm on a PCB. Big bonus is as of a month ago, it is a JEDEC standard!

Most of the information in the linked article is very outdated (~16 months old), so we have decided to ditch the idea of having a separate DRAM and "External I/O" and just have our chip-to-chip on all four sides of the chip. The chip-to-chip interface uses the same protocol as our Network On Chip, and expands in the same 2D mesh. We are also looking into (with a sketched out plan) on how to directly interface this I/O with HBM dies that can be in the same MCM package. As far as supporting other memories/IOs, we are leaning towards having "adapter chips" that would convert our chip-to-chip interface to DDR4, Ethernet, Infiniband, etc.

As far as bandwidth numbers, our aggregate bandwidth for this test chip we have just taped out (16 cores + 2 chip-to-chip I/O macros on TSMC 28nm, 12mm^2 in size) is 60GB/s though for the planned production chip, we will be over 256GB/s. I have a good feeling we will be a fair margin higher than that, but I would rather under promise and over deliver.
I completely agree. If no one reproduced existing libraries, how is one supposed to learn library design and all the algorithms? I would love to hire people who wrote their own 3D libraries in JavaScript -- we wouldn't use their libraries of course but it would show that they have a really deep understanding and can contribute to similar software libraries.
Trump isn't a blank slate, he's first and foremost a self-serving businessman. Sure, he says outrageous things that people want to hear with no intention of ever doing them, but that doesn't make him a blank slate. It makes him a sycophantic liar.

Don't delude yourself that he's neutral. He has a clear agenda of promoting racism, violence, and religious intolerance because that's what his future Trump Network customer base wants to hear. If he is elected he'll most likely resign on day 2 because he can make much more money licensing his brand than actually having to deal with complex problems that can't be solved by simply building a wall, deporting all muslims, etc. for 4 years.

I think the employee-boss relationship is a factor as well. Generally speaking, superiors should be able to make constructive criticisms to their subordinates without it impacting morale in a negative manner. That makes criticism a two way street.

Bosses must make sure that they're not all critic with no praise. No one wants to be critiqued all the time without kudos for the good portions and hard work. Tone, body languages, and timing all play into how an effective leader communicates positively or negatively to a team member.

On the flip side, staff need to be able to separate their personal worth from the work that they do. This can be especially tough in some fields and with some personality types such as art, design, and programming. When your work is highly subjective, when you're starting your career, or when their are a million methods to achieve the same goal (with some methods being better without obvious reason as to why), it can feel like critiques are attacking the person instead improving the work.

An anecdote from my personal life: I worked as a paralegal for a while. I started off mediocre at the job, but after a management change, my new boss had manuals that gave standardized instructions on how to do nearly everything. That's when I started to excel. There were many specific times when I would give my boss documents, but he never let them slide. Ever. He would say, "The language and structure of this document is perfect, but you know I can't let anything slide without having something to change." He'd mark something subjective such as substituting a synonym with the same meaning and tone or moving a sentence that didn't affect the language of the paragraph. It never bothered me, but I can see how that would definitely grate on others. In spite of this, he was always full of praise with nothing but positive remarks.

I think it would be nice to see some comparison to Clojure for example which is a JVM-integrated lisp-1. I have for example Elixir on my radar for a while but I'm very interested in seeing more lisp dialects running on popular VM implementations. My point is that I don't know how to compare this to Clojure (in my case). What advantages does it have and why should I use it?

It seems at least some of the difficulties described are managed better in Haskell.

For example, rebinding to the same name (as an alternative to destructive update) can be handled conveniently and nicely via state monad and the lens library, with syntax roughly like:

pacman.position += speed

This is still purely functional because the resulting type is roughly: State Game () which is equivalent to: (Game -> Game) (a pure function that takes a game and returns a modified game).

I have gone through the code before he commented here to see how he did the smart cropping (1. create histogram, 2. calculate entropy) and think he could have maybe made the histogram and the entropy calculation available as separate libraries or use an existing one, but they are not too big either and I think the use cases would anyway involve some sort of image processing most of the time.

The interface to crop smartly definitely belongs in an image library, especially when it is a wrapper around a native program focused on easy of use and a clean interface.
agree. It's not that good of an article. What if the product really does need improvement. Kinda amazed this even got so many votes.
A counter example would be Monsanto which pretty much saved (or at least fully transformed) the company from one of these small basic research groups.

It think this is more a phenomenon that these big companies become more and more like nations. Nations also fund basic research that 99% of the time has no economical benefit but that one time you invent coffeine free coffee and make a lot of money. But sure, nations are driven by the same or similar motivations you describe.
Ah, no. I must have not made myself clear somewhere. God of the gaps philosophy is mirrored by modern science as a sort of "Nothingness blob of the gaps". Its the same type of thing though: If we haven't figured out how it works, then its some random nothingness blob that happened to...even though that is not how it behaves naturally...blah blah blah (Like flies on meat). Basically just listen for when NDeT almost lets his words hum out of his mouth, he's trying to dramatize his words so you get caught up in the majesty of the things he's describing instead of questioning them. So if God of the gaps is so bad, its comical that Nothingness blob of the gaps passes your rigorous critical analysis. I believe in the Bible , not "God of the gaps" or the "Nothingness blob"

Well the field of "image processing" is big[0]. As oppose to what we are used to in php world which is just "image manipulation" (resize, crop, save to different image formats) in the context of web apps.

The algos are in github you can convert it to JS if you want. Theyre both C based so syntax is not that different. If you are looking for node.js version there is already smartcrop.js.

Interesting tidbit: Vannevar Bush, he of the frequently posted "As We May Think" essay [0], is quoted as being highly skeptical of ICBMs:

> There has been a great deal said about a 3,000 mile high-angle rocket. In my opinion such a thing is impossible and will be impossible for many years. The people who have been writing these things that annoy me have been talking about a 3,000 mile high-angle rocket shot from one continent to another carrying an atomic bomb, and so directed as to be a precise weapon which would land on a certain target such as this city. I say technically I don’t think anybody in the world knows how to do such a thing, and I feel confident it will not be done for a very long time to come.

The debate over ICBMs vs pilots reminds me a lot of the current tech/AI vs. human debates today:

> But it wasn’t just that the USAF was pro-bomber. They were distinctly anti-missile for a long time. Why? The late Thomas Hughes, in his history of Project Atlas, attributes a distinct “conservative momentum, or inertia” to the USAF’s approach to missiles. Long-range missiles would be disruptive to the hierarchy: engineers and scientists would be on top, with no role for pilots in sight. Officers would, in a sense, become de-skilled. And perhaps there was just something not very sporting about lobbing nukes at another country from the other side of the Earth.

This is another important reason for the boss to refrain from suggesting changes, unless it's clear and important. As often as not, the boss's change will be worse, but there is a lot of pressure to not push back and just do what the boss says.
