Because that may mean that it is not usable for you. Not everybody is interested in the theory of things, and once you implement you tie things down to a specific ecosystem.

Adding 'in clojure' does not detract from the info already in the title but makes it more informative. This particular implementation is also quite dependent (as far as I can see) on bits and pieces that clojure supplies natively but that may be hard to implement in other languages.

I get that this would be desirable for a lot of people - but not for me. It's definitely cute, it's definitely portable, but if you can afford the difference between this and a regular MacBook or something with a similar form factor, why not just grab the latter? It's not as if you can fit this in a pocket or something - you'd still need a bag/backpack to carry this around comfortably, and then why not just use a full-fledged laptop with a larger screen, arguably easier-to-use pointer. I honestly cannot see myself being as productive on one of these as I am on my regular old laptop.

Despite this article claiming that this device would have all the capabilities of a normal laptop, I think this fails in some of the same ways that smartbooks did in the past. Who -really- wants to do serious work on one of these instead of a laptop with a normal-sized screen? I can imagine potential strain on the eyes after a long time working on one of these - not to mention the seemingly awkward aspect ratio.

To each their own, though.
Fracking does not exist because of subsidies. The concept itself existed since the 60's or so, but it never become economical until $100 oil (natural gas is also produced as a byproduct). Currently American production is declining year over year due to low prices, subsidy or not. Furthermore, one needs to separate the subsidies that go to the oil industry - not like it all goes to fracking companies.

Natural gas wouldn't just increase by 10%. That statement alone makes me not click on the article. Gas is still under half of global prices in the US (due to poor transport), despite this summer's runup. A decline in production, meaning supply balance, would wildly swing prices higher. It wasn't long ago that prices were $4-5 per mcf.
Good job! One question though. In cases like this when there is generally no state, isn't it better to make the methods static?
How many nba players do you think spent years working on layups and nothing else? The push themselves. They work on what they're not good at yet, and in doing that, improve at the things they already are.

Spending years going to classes that do nothing but teach you things you have already mastered is not practice. It's torture. To improve retention and mastery you keep using the skills you've attained to greater effect. The compounding is what matters. Move too slowly and people shut down, tune out, and ignore the material. That's when material is forgotten.
Personally, I've found that it takes about five minutes for my hands to adjust when I switch between ergodox and laptop. (Basically working at home vs in a cafe). I'm a relatively speedy typist in either mode, but it does take adjusting to swap modes.

That said, this is why I am not using colemak on my ergodox- I dont want to further distance the two keyboards.

My Experience with ClojureScript and React Native
I learned this the hard way, I ended up driving 55 km to the nearest dealership in 'limp' mode trying to maintain enough speed not to annoy traffic around me. It worked but that was one of the most annoying road trips I ever made.

The weird thing is it does not happen every time you disconnect the battery, but when it does disconnecting it and reconnecting it does not clear the problem. Highly annoying. But a good way to learn new German words ("Drosselklappe...").
You can have cruise control on a stick. I rarely use it but my manual car has it. On most (barring long climbs and descents) freeways with free moving traffic, you pretty much put the stick in top gear and leave it. The big win with an automatic is stop and go traffic.
I think they're referring to a https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Living_street. In Germany that's 6 km/h, walking speed. You don't hit the accelerator at all, if you drive stick shift and use the 2nd gear (e.g. when police stops you) you were already too fast. They teach that in driving school because it's so weird to drive that slow.
That's arguable only if tax rates are universal. People pretend a lower long term capital gains rate is a tax cut, but it's effectivly just handing money to a few at the cost of everyone else who needs to fund the government.

In the end spending cuts matter, tax cuts are just smoke a mirrors to mask spending as a good thing.

Its only drawback is it can't catch all use-after-free. So, they add a heap-precise, conservative GC for that. There's quite a few techniques in the literature for detecting use-after-free. Add one of those to eliminate the GC and... what's left at that point?

I think they have to have the key already, but still 'blank' That will likely open the door but it would normally raise the alarm, that's why they start under the hood first, to disable that.

After that the procedure would be fairly easy: open the door with the still unlearned key, learn the new key ID to the ECU (takes < 1 minute) using the laptop, after that you can start the car.

One handy tip I got from the police after my own car got stolen (a VW transporter camper) was that you should mask off a chunk of the VIN so thieves can't use the VIN to order keys that will fit the car (but that still need to be programmed in the ECU in order to allow a start).
Are there limitations to cruise control on manual? Presumably if it's a true manual gearbox the car can't shift automatically, so if you were to encounter an upward slope that required a down-shift what happens?

Much of the research states otherwise. While there are certainly instances of your anecdote that do occur, the rule seems to be that higher achieving students function better with those at their level than with those beneath them. And, even then, the problem is temporary. The majority of those accelerated kids, when interviewed as adults indicated that they wish they had been accelerated soon or more, and that any social issues were temporary and fleeting.

How do you figure? You trailed off at the end without finishing your thought. I'd love to hear why you don't think it's a huge accomplishment.
The fact that the author is essentially thanking Sony for securing devices against them is something I find a bit baffling, unless it's some deep sarcasm I'm not seeing, or thanks for not making it too secure.
You should consider that:

a) The company can always go tits up at any moment without prior warning, however unlikely it appears to be now. A loan will always be riskier for the founders (personal liability) even if they are printing money right now.

b) Investors want a shot at making 10x or 100x, even if that means a lot more risk. Handing a loan is safer, but you only get to make 1.4x at best; that's not the game they want to play.
"As a result, he thinks, the worldwide price of oil would inch up by only 1 percent."

This is total ivory tower quackery. Not even professional oil traders can predict oil prices 1 year out.

Oil fundamentally has boom and bust cycles, due to large investments in time and capital, and its demand inelasticity. That means that supply imbalances cause wild swings in price.

Supply is not a constant function and cannot be predicted with so many actors. You cannot reasonably assume players will manage the supply/demand balance. In fact, they are incentivized to allow it to swing to either extreme (longer discussion).

Long story short, you do not f* with supply sources.
Right but I hear it's super crashy, I'm waiting until it's stable for my kids to use.
My advice:

+ What to do next: talk to your users and get feedback and iterate on that feedback. It's harder to do with apps because Google/Apple/Microsoft stand between you and your users, or to put it another way, the users are their customers and not really yours [and that in my view, is reason enough to consider building a version that runs in the browser].

+ put the video on the landing page...or make it more visible since I didn't find it until I went to the App Store.

+ Put the explanations from the video on the landing page, I had no idea what Taggroo did until watching the video, and I only watched it so I could provide feedback. If it had just been to "check it out" as a potential user, I'd have given up as a WTF, in about 30 seconds.

+ Given the reliance on geolocation, it's hard to see how this would be useful to someone in Arkansas or Paraguay or another location where the network effect doesn't exist. One of the things that makes the AR in Pokemon Go work is that the virtual space is seeded and the social effect is in "meat space" not cyber space. To put it another way, the market place is local to the end user and even if there are not other local players, there's still something to engage with.

+ It's not clear how much effort needs to go into creating tags. I mean do I have to be a graphic artist or are there pre-canned tags? It seems that there are two distinct demographics there and there's a strong tension between people who are tagging with original art and the idea that someone can stamp over their work with clip art.

+ If it meets the guidelines, this might make a good "Show HN". Show HN guidelines: https://news.ycombinator.com/showhn.html

+ Curious abut the story behind it's development.

Good luck.

Yes, it is limited to what the car can do in that gear, so you have to downshift manually (and re-set the cruise control).
Breaking into a car isn't terribly difficult. My car you can get into with a tennis ball with a hole in it-place hole on lock and ram the ball. The hard part is typically not getting caught.
I believe it. Even in the released game, the NPCs' schedules break down on certain edge cases and they revert back to this kind of chaotic behavior. I've watched Quill-Weave sneak across town and follow someone into a temple to steal food out of his pockets, because her travel schedule (regularly visiting a certain town) was disrupted by interactions with the player.
>How exactly do we plan to implement that doctrine? If we strike second, it will be too late. If we strike first, we're the bad guys.

Both major nuclear superpowers (U.S., Russia) absolutely have a large number of first strike scenarios. Nobody cares about being the "bad guy" in a nuclear war, they just want to be the nation that survives and has the advantage after the initial exchanges.
> by default you're just specifying a list of tasks to be run on the target machine serially. You don't have to learn a programming language like Ruby to be productive with it.

Actually it feels like functional programming to me. It seems to discourage dependencies by continuing (other steps) after failures unless explicitly skipped.
I will look for it.
I bought the Advantage1 in 2008 and it's been one of my best keyboards ever since then. It's extremely comfortable. I wrote up a few paragraphs about my impressions here:

http://therandymon.com/index.php?/archives/167-Typing-in-Sty...

The one common complaint is that they had used rubber keys instead of mechanical for the function keys. Looks like that issue is addressed in this second edition. For sheer key build quality, the Totally Ergonomic Keyboard is better. But the Kinesis is more ergonomically comfortable, and includes a couple of USB slots so it can function as a hub (few other ergo keyboards do that).

I won't buy this new version because my own Ergo will probably last another 20 years - it's built that strongly! - and the rubber function keys don't bother me a bit.
> Yes, I know switching to the MP model has to do with it, but if your architectural changes hurt usability for security I consider that quite poor

Since you consider that "quite poor", can you share your proposed method for doing multiprocess without regressing memory usage?
The reason you're not seeing what he means is that you didn't grasp that the rest of the paragraph explains why he is thanking Sony.

He is thanking them for the opportunity to learn so much.

I believe that you call the "historied infrastructure of ethics and judgement" is the same thing as what I call "political power". It's basically a system by which most decisionmakers will act towards certain hidden goals even while pretending they favor other more palatable ones.

And I stand by my claim that this threatens the extant power structures. Many of those power structures maintain power by pretending to serve one palatable goal (e.g. equal treatment) while actually serving a far less palatable one (e.g. quota systems).

Concretely, I believe that if existing power structures actually implement the principles they claim, algorithms will support them. And if they don't, algorithms will threaten them. So far the latter seems to be what is happening.
The mods are our only hope.
Interwsting plan to find a new crew to take up the mantle on the scene while they step away since they don't have time anymore.

Doubt it'll pay off though since they obviously spent years mastering this hardware and it's unlikely anyone else will invest as much time.

> what does any of this have to do with flower crowns?

the national embroidered dresses ("vyshivanki") are used as a symbol by those nationalists forces in Ukraine today who explicitly claim the heritage of the OUN/UPA (the organizations which intentionally performed the mentioned above genocide in order to advance the nationalist goals), and as the original comment and the article say the floral crowns are being added to that set of symbols. They look nice until you understand what they are just a beautiful facade for. Until you feel a smell of burnt flesh - in 2014 they burned alive (surrounded the building and thrown Molotov cocktails inside) 42 pro-Russian activists in Odessa - the popular "traditional" method of dealing with your opponents in Western Ukraine under the OUN/UPA. There is a popular these days Ukrainian song about a celebrated leader of UPA - Roman Shuskevich - and his forces grilling on fire and impaling alive communists and the members of NKVD (USSR Ministry of Internal Affairs who was fighting OUN/UPA left over after Red Army freed Ukraine from Nazi) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35JT6Ppvf-w - it isn't just imagination of the song's author, it is actually pretty correct historically. Also, in 199x the Western Ukraine nationalists fought Russians in Chechnya, and their treatment of Russian POWs is well known for the cruelty. So it is a little bit hard to appreciate the cuteness of something used a symbol for such history.
I think you missed the joke on that one.

The Atreus is a fun project to build and the fact that the controller source code is freely available is great fun. I've built mine with Matias keys and they do feel better than the wobbly and less smooth action found in the Cherry brown keys.

I have a few Advantage keyboards as well and in my mind they serve different purposes.

The Atreus is a great portable lapboard and works really well when you use it in that regard. FYI: The lack of extra keys lend this keyboard to Emacs programmers; You'll be chording on this keyboard significantly more than you might expect.

For a non-portable ergonomic keyboard, the size of the Advantage and extra keys offer a more comfortable typing experience when used on a desk. These keyboards are pretty damn huge though and will fill a backpack without any extra help.
Not really:

From the photo it looks like the quarter or third of the battery is below the keyboard. But the smaller screen is probably not enough to compensate for the loss, so yea, probably it would have shorter battery life but not by 100%...
Sorry about that! I do feel it is a huge accomplishment. Full stop. It is the interstellar part that puzzled me. Why not intergalactic?

I have a pretty good boss. Of course, we're all adults. Anyway, our boss has this way of treating everyone differently -- knowing which buttons to push. With me he'll always give me the occasional harder task saying "This is going to be easy for you"; with my coworker, he has to press harder and say "this is important, don't screw it up".

I was recently depressed and without really having been told anything he gave me this hollywood-movie pep talk along the lines of "it's important that you know that you have great talents so don't sweat the small stuff and tell me if you're in trouble".

Maybe this is pretty much off-topic, but the point I wanted to make is that people react to different things and much of the art of squeezing motivation and productivity out of them has to do with understanding this.

Khalil Gibran: "Your children are not your children

They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself.

They come through you but not from you.

And though they are with you, they belong not to you.

You may give them your love but not your thoughts.

For they have their own thoughts.

You may house their bodies but not their souls,

For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow,

Which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.

You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you.

For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.

You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth.

The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite.

And He bends you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far.

Let your bending in the archer's hands be for happiness;

For even as He loves the arrow that flies,

So He loves the bow that is stable."
