I'm in europe, few guns around here. Still I'd rather run/comply/hide than risk my life for 20t potatoes.

To figure out which truck has the iPads and get away with them you'd need:

- an insider to know the time and content of the truck

- stop the truck

- unload the truck at the spot (it will refuse to move your way)

- deal with an alarm system (maybe lights and sirens)

- get away and sell all the high value goods despite their serial numbers

Should it become a problem we'll just ship all the boring stuff autonomously and the rest with a guard that needs no extra breaks and can sleep on the road.
You need to control both harbors for that though. If you have a crew, they can make the transaction with another organisation and you don't need any local resources.

It's worse than you might expect, try it with unsigned int ;)

$ cc -O3 foo.c
$ ./a.out
5e574b68
$ cat foo.c
#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char ** argv) {
unsigned int a = 1;
unsigned int b = 0;
printf("%x\n", a/b);
}

Yes overflow wraps on unsigned as defined, but that example is divide-by-zero which is UB for unsigned too and the compiler is free to optimize there, which LLVM does.

>>I don't see how they could know in advance that I'm going to accelerate unless I tell them

You can learn to drive an automatic, just like you can learn to drive a manual. In mine, I just blip the throttle down a bit to force the car to downshift if I'm anticipating an overtake soon - it's something you learn if you drive long enough. Besides, I drive a car with an AMG 7-speed Dual Clutch transmission, where the shift takes fractions of a second - I could not possibly change that fast in a manual. No chance.
Is that still the case? I thought Swiss secrecy isn't what it used to be.

Anyway, some people would argue that strong privacy protections are a good thing even if they help bad guys.

There isn't any doubt that nanotube transistors can ultimately be higher performing than silicon. The problem is getting yon nanotubes to stick to more than 70% of the pads that they're supposed to be sticking to. Even modern silicon processes have the occasional bad transistor but with those it's 1 in 10 million or so, not 1 in ten. For VLSI we really need breakthroughs in getting the nanotubes to go where we want them to.

First off, it is the rare businessperson who sees harming their customer as the road to success. But such antics do occasionally happen, so I won't belabor it.

Second, you live in Oregon? Unless you live with a restrictive religious sect, I guarantee at least one of your friends gets high. Figure out who it is, ask them. I'm sure Portland, like Seattle, has a park or two; put your hoodie on and go for a walk. Or just ask the internet these days.

All moot for you now, as you swing by the store on the way home.
How much will cost to manufacture chips with that technology? Current silicon lithography is a photograph superposition process. Will be "drawing" with carbon nanotubes as cheap, or will require per-transistor "drawing" instead of per-layer lithography?
Thanks writing and sharing those. Very good insights there. Also sorry, didn't recognize your name at first as Pieter Hintjens (I wouldn't have asked as already had the link to the book in my bookmarks). I periodically refer to "The Toolbox" when discussing development practices at work.

In professions which are considered more rational and intellectual like programming, there is a danger of discounting the effect of emotions. Emotions are always there under the surface guiding and controlling things.

The more rational the person thinks they are the more they will rationalize their decisions. So when someone proposes using say Protobufs as a serialization mechanism, instead of Thrift, for example, might be doing it because the person who likes Thrift in the group offended them somehow. But that will never come up in the official reason, there will be some benchmark or list of point why Protobufs might be better.

Or maybe they had a fight with their family and they come to work and start shutting down a project and shuffling developers around to feel empowered, and there will always be a seemingly rational reason for it.

Thanks againg for writing that book and sharing your experience. There is just not enough of that, especially focused on open source projects. Some projects naturally converge and discover some of those principles from the toolbox, but having them written down from someone with experience is priceless.

I have spent a good part of my morning reading some of your material. Particularly some of your blog articles on hintjens.com. I am very glad I was able to find your content. It is thought provoking to say the least. I hope I will be able to find more content from you in the future. Good luck and thank you.

I've never heard of a rocket not leaving the platform. Every launch I've seen, the rocket left the platform, or destroyed itself on the platform.

I think(but don't have the data on hand) a more common failure scenario is the rocket launching, and the payload getting into space, but not able to attain the desired orbit.

Nothing "necessarily" leads to anything. See my comment above about FUD like this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12425125

> With 28 member states all vying to promote their own wares ...

They'll be vying regardless. That's the nature, indeed the whole point, of democracy: To provide a system of rules for doing that fairly, rather than might makes right.

> it's going to be a lot easier for one nation to form new trade agreements that one conglomerate made up of members with completely different ideas and opinions.

More FUD. They need to deal with those other nations' interests one way or the other; who would choose anarchy over democracy?

The EU regularly makes trade deals among its 28 nations, far more quickly and flexibly than any other trade block. That's because, rather than stone-age international anarchy, which requires painful, undemocratic treaty negotiations that are so difficult that they can't be updated and revisited, they operate with normal laws and regulations.

How will the UK make deals now with those 28 nations? Certainly not as easily. How will their 60 million have the leverage to get the deals that an entity ten times bigger gets? Would the individual U.S. states be better off negotiating international trade deals absent the federal government? After all, then they wouldn't have to deal with all the other interests.

The ideology is naive. You have to deal with other people and their interests; that's part of life. You can do it by fighting them or by cooperating to create the best possible outcome. It also is moral, because we need to respect that others' interests are as important as our own, another element of maturity. It is called 'civilization' and even 'enlightened self-interest'.
Accepting lower reliability of rockets doesn't buy you as much cost reduction as you might expect. Payloads are usually very expensive, so even a moderately increased risk of losing one can be pricy.

What SpaceX is doing is accepting worse performance in exchange for lower cost. Hopefully that'll make things more reliable in the long run, rather than less, since they won't be pushing the envelope quite as much as competing designs. (Remember the Space Shuttle Main Engines, which had to be practically rebuilt after each flight? That was done in order to get the amazing performance needed to make the Shuttle work at all.)
In essence, that's precisely what he's doing. The exact on-disk metadata layout may not be documented anywhere, so he pieced it together using the structure definitions in the source code.

So now the real question .. what was the password? :-)
I wish I could make the jump again. When I was a kid, I loved Math. I even got one of this badges that were so popular in my east block country, for being the best kid in Math for my whole year group. Then we moved to Germany. Math level was far below mine, I got bored, started to do other stuff and lost it when they overtook me. Growing up and work did the rest. I lost it. When I had/have to do some math I'm doing what is needed but this creative spark you need is gone. Now I find it very complicated to get even into the syntax...I fix most of my problem through the net. It's like losing a friend whose face you've already forgotten.
Even if it doesn't, how much time is this actually saving? If you're doing heavy work on every frame ... maybe (and you'll have to profile to figure out if it's worth). If you're handling a user input event, or some IO event (like in the author's example) it makes no difference at all. It'll confuse some developer (possibly a junior or co-op tasked with clearing the bug queue) down the road, and probably will lead to a bug.
Not even that, it's how to max produce them. Today transistors are made in batches of trillions with hundreds of billions per silicon wafer and up to billions per chip. Scaling up to that level of mass production, let alone reliability, is a huge leap from where we are today and most likely will require decades of work.
One could read this as description of how digitalization trivializes the algorithmic parts away, thus leaving pure human skill on the play. So, not a totally void article, I would say, as it goes to some depth in explaining the parts that have been digitized into non-issues.
I’d like to see more tools and tutorials for generating charts on the server-side, so that the amount of JavaScript is kept at a minimum.

Carbon is not passive unlike asbestos. Leave it on fresh się and it will happily oxidize itself.
this is excellent advice. for better or for worse, this describes most startups to a tee.

being an individual contributor (i.e. dude with a job) at a startup is different than a big corporate job or government work. you have to be able to define your own tasks given vague requirements. you have to be able to actually get shit done without someone telling you to get it done. after working in startups for decades, many other jobs seem like adult daycare to me.

for people who thrive in autonomy, have decent common sense, and an understanding of what the business or the customer is actually trying to accomplish, it is a wonderful environment. this doesn't mean lots of experience -- some people just have this knack, others don't.

fwiw, a large contributor to employee churn at startups (to the extent that it exists) is because you can find out so quickly whether or not someone is full of shit -- they actually have to deliver working stuff fast. in larger organizations they can just hide in the decision-making lagtime/chaos for up to years at a time.
Sure, let's suppose that happens. Then as next optimization you will have detachable wheels and engine, because that way you can use them better. And because some Palettes and Packages go the same way, you might want to carry them on the same set of wheels and engine. See where I am going with this? ;)

Also, the third paragraph shows why it was relevant:

> The images also provide proof of Philae’s orientation, making it clear why establishing communications was so difficult following its landing on 12 November 2014.

Mostly the curiosity of the public and more importantly the scientists who worked so hard on the project only to have their lander not land properly.

Otherwise the fact that Philae was lost almost immediately upon landing has been a huge story line this past year. I believe the blog assumed the readers would know this. A CNN article would typically provide back story but this is original source from ESA.

As someone who has worked at a Swiss bank: This might have applied a couple of decades ago. Especially in the last decade, Swiss banks introduced rules to overcome this problem with international customers. Smaller banks started to turn down US customers right away (like the one I worked at). It has become dangerous for bank employees and banks themselves to support criminals like you mention. There is zero tolerance for money laundering. While it is far from perfect, the financial sector has matured in that regard.

I'm not so confident that we're all that good at containment. If they are indeed dangerous, having them widely distributed makes them readily available for someone to break them open and poison someone. Perhaps they can be designed to self-destruct by rusting/oxidising/etc and become less harmful upon package breach.

Interesting, I've pretty much entirely replaced brunch with webpack in my projects over the last few years, and found it much easier. The larger adoption and active community made it a lot easier to move forward when encountering webpack issues; surely that's thanks to the rapid spread of react, but if it means I spend less time wading through build problems in my non-react projects then that's fine with me.

The link is in Norwegian, but this is a ruling from the Supreme Court (following appeals from lower courts) that says police cannot force someone to unlock their phone by fingerprint.

The specific case is a man charged with assault, and police suspect the man filmed the assault himself.

Earlier rulings in the lower courts were in favor of police, drawing analogy to the fact that police can force a suspect to give a blood sample. The Supreme Court, however, finds that while police have a right to investigate a suspects body, they cannot coerce the suspect to use their body to allow investigation of external objects.

It's like this. If you're on a C++ team where the whole team heavily uses C++'s features as well as Boost, then you should write your code accordingly. This'll make your code more concise, and clearer to the other members of the team. At the same time, it'll make it much more obfuscated to, say, a C programmer.

It's really pretty standard. I have several friends who "chip-tuned" their diesel engines for significant HP boost, people regularly change suspension parts, exhausts, they add intercoolers to the engines, order a turbo etc.
Those are pretty standard things and there are many specialized shops when you can drop your car for a few days to get those done.

You shouldn't trust your opinions on the topic if you haven't heard about it because those are really common things among car enthusiasts.
