Thank you. It's true, I have lots to contribute. It's why we are partners! But why cannot I give my information for him to read, in a video?

The video recording is only for one minute. Such a short time for communicating! We need every second. He is the most efficient.

If it was a computer algorithm, it would be stupid to use such a leaky channel, with much entropy. Why should we do the same in recording the video?

I can't speak for YC applications, however day to day in my workplace I am surrounded by engineers for whom English is a second language (and, for that matter, also native speakers with strong regional accents); I also regularly interview such.

I find that speaking with an accent is generally independent of the ability to clearly, fluidly communicate, which is actually what is important.

Do you frequently find yourself pausing mid-speech to think of the term you need? Do you frequently find yourself struggling to understand idiom-laced speech? Do you frequently find yourself talking at cross purposes with people because you have used a term with a different meaning to the one you intended, or have failed to correctly understand a term they have used?

These and similar problems can represent genuine failings of communication that may become an issue. It is usually obvious partway through a discussion or interview if this sort of thing is likely to be a problem: they hinder the candidate telling you about themselves and/or answering the questions they are asked.

If you do not experience this class of problem - if you are merely concerned about unusual stress/pronunciation or similar, but do not have trouble making yourself understood, understanding your interlocutor, or speaking at a sensible rate - then I suggest you should not worry about your accent, and it would actually be to your benefit to contribute significantly to the video, in order to demonstrate that there are no significant communication issues to anyone who may otherwise be concerned.

EDIT: PG says similar things here: http://www.paulgraham.com/accents.html
You can have a model S in the UK for 395 pounds(¬500USD) /month. That's a 7-year contract, but given the 8 year warranty on the car, I don't really see a problem here. And 395/month is very affordable if you have a job in IT, even outside london(I make waaaaaay less than any of the figures in the article above and my monthly payments for the car are larger than this).

> Which clothing comes from the battlefield?

Examples from the top of my head and without verification:

* Trenchcoats. Used in World War 1 by British Officers.
* Fishtail Parkas. As favoured by Mods on scooters.
* Combat trousers. Were a big 90s fashion trend.
* MA-1 style bomber jackets.
* Boots with a heel. Originally used to keep feet in stirrups by horse cavalry soldiers.

I would imagine there were many more. William Gibson uses this trend for military fashions as a subplot in his Blue Ant trilogy.

This is a real problem. What's the alternative? The TOS does need to express the desired purpose and to hold up in court if required. Some licenses are much simpler than others, but some are necessarily complex. The GPL is much shorter than most click-through TOSs, but an average user still isn't going to read it.
> If you ignore the terminology, DFS is basically just recursively walking a graph, something which actually happens all the time in most dev jobs.

In ten years of full-time professional development I have never needed to recursively walk a graph. Hell, the only data structures in the software I worked on for the first six (real-time signal processing code) didn't use any data structures other than lists, arrays, and C structs. I would not be able to answer the interview question that started this subthread, despite my track record of efficient and well-designed code.

How is SE a "fluff subject?" Why are they writing essays? When I took SE we had individual programming projects and a group project to write a compiler. Not fluff at all.
Doesn't seem like they are mutually exclusive. Why not do both?
Sure it's nice to boycott them but doing it this way has the (slim?) potential of getting that change reverted, restoring full functionality/compatibility to current customers.

Just to keep this clear, since I'm not really clear headed right now (a bit sick).

If some group with the resources and skills wanted to they could take UltraSPARC T1/T2 code, update the CPU with modern techniques for the design, and then ship it off to a fab company to have it built and sold and Sun's patents wouldn't be infringed upon so long as they make it Free software?

I don't know what you would change but from my understanding CPU design has had some major changes since this CPU so I'm assuming there are tricks or things that could be done to speed the thing up but then again I don't know.

I wish someone capable did this. Having a Free CPU would be great. It would be especially great for this sort of RISC CPU to create a new low-power high-performance that was promised.

Remember...

Because the free market is very slow, and it's a greater total harm.

Would you rather your child learned which items are hot by scarring themselves each time?
Yes, because I'd be living in Kansas City, and not SF.

For one, I'd be paying about half as much in income taxes, even if I was earning the same salary in both places.

For two, I'd be living in a midwestern state with more reasonable laws and regulations, as opposed to California.

Of course, I'd rather make $100,000 and live in Montana, or Alaska, or the northern band of New England, than in either of these places...
Yeah, they put all the unsubscribe options inside the actual emails. It seems like they're using all the best-practices stuff for that. It's probably just growth hacking/simplicity. The unsubscribe is available, but they want you to do it from inside the email after you've had a chance to look at one first.

(Disclosure: I have no relationship to Inside.com. I'm just a subscriber that is moderately pleased with their concept. The emails are useful. I'm trying to break my "check Reddit/HN every 5 minutes" habit.)
When housing is the overriding factor in COL differential (as it tends to be in the Bay area relative to other locations), you probably need to look at something after-tax pay less mortgage/rent for a house/apartment where you're realistically going to live in the respective areas.

Clearly there are other cost and quality of life tradeoffs to consider, but the above gives you a pretty good baseline to work off.

In the UK you pay National Insurance (NI) on your gross earnings. NI pays for things like the National Health Service. The amount you pay depends on your employment status and how much you earn [2]. I assume this is similar to "social charges" in France.

After deducting NI and the tax-free allowance [3], you pay income tax on whats left. And whats left after that is yours to keep.

Most regular employees have tax and NI automatically deducted from their monthly/weekly pay by their empoyer. This is called Pay as You Earn (PAYE) and keeps things simple. Company owners, contractors, etc. often pay tax yearly or half-yearly and often employ an accountant to arrange this.

[1] This is the amount that the job pays, before all taxes and deductions.

The Replicant project wrote a post in August describing work on Replicant 6:

http://blog.replicant.us/2016/08/replicant-6-early-work-upst...

My phone (Galaxy S3) uses Replicant, and I'm quite excited for the upgrade, which will fix a number of rather unfortunate issues. I'm more than willing to make such sacrifices, but it'd be nice (for example) to be able to take videos of my children, which the current version cannot do.

It's not a shortcoming of Replicant---the fact that these issues exist at all demonstrate how much value is placed on user freedom.

Most unfortunate is that few users will be willing to make these sacrifices.

That analogy makes no sense, and your view of consumers and individuals as children is patronizing.

Reading some of the amounts listed is a bit depressing, I thought that the increased cost of living in London would justify salaries and rates much higher than the average.

By contrast I know from personal experience you can earn the same or better than what's listed here outside of London and enjoy the lower cost of living.

SE is often relegated to a "fluff" subject in schools simply because it's, well, not very challenging. Classes based around the topic of SE are often topics like "Formal Software Development Methods" where you learn about verification of concurrent programs, formal symbolic testing, contracts, explicit model checking, etc. These are all "soft skills" and hard to directly generalize into a programming assignment, so students often times write essays formalizing their logic.

Frankly, I'm surprised that your SE class did compilers at all, many schools in CS have their own "operating systems programming"/"low level programming"/"compiler design" sort of class, where the topic is fully fleshed out, rather than just a tiny project.

>what does that even mean?

It's precisely analogous: the age of oil will be "over" long before we run out of oil. That's how resource economics work.
I don't think it's really about the CS concepts as it is being able to link them together flexibly. Suppose you want the median value in an array. Well sorting makes it easy, but you don't need to fully sort the array. A modified quick sort seems like a good compromise, then again using a built in sort is probably fast enough and much less code.

That's the kind of thinking that really works. Because you can look up well known probelms, but you need to start thinking in terms of trade offs instead of going with the first idea.

How to Make Intelligent Robots That Understand the World

should, or must?

I've seen plenty of products that say you should use only manufacturer-approved products.

But I know in the U.S. manufacturers aren't allowed to void warranties just because a third-party component is used.

But can manufacturers really step around that by disabling the ability to use third-party components?
There's only so much you can do to increase affordable housing in SF/Bay area without infringing on the rights of property owners. Rezoning so more vertical structures can be built will help, but not much in the scheme of things. SF will just continue to be an expensive area to live in. There's not always an easy or realistic fix to some problems in life.
>it is not a Tesla so people who want a Tesla won't want that car.

That's a much smaller market than those in SV think. Most people around me haven't even heard of the company. I'm sure that's unfathomable to some of the people on these boards.

The money is in mass-market, and Tesla knows it.
I find this truly bizarre that people are still writing about this. Look at where you adverts were supposed to be, check the height. If they're zero, something has probably stopped that ad loading. You don't need a third party script to manage this.

I wrote this over 9 years ago: https://thepcspy.com/read/how_to_block_adblock/ and it's somehow still cutting edge.

Publishers need to realise that static spatial ads are a lost battleground. They'll only ever take that back with the most aggressive means. The format is dead because they broke it (eg allowing hackers to deploy exploits over it).

They either need to be mandatory and interactive ("How many sips of ice cold refreshing Coca Cola Zero did the model have?") or straight up PAY people to interact. Google manages this with surveys already.
I think it depends where you study. In my university, SE was basically "Write essays about why OO is great and draw lots of UML".
trouble is with that analogy is there are plenty of other car makers that fit the luxury end of the market Tesla is going to have a hard time replacing, RR Bentley, BMW Mercedes and BMW.

Show HN: Analysis and efficacy scores for thousands of natural remedies
English is spoken by over a billion people. Many of those people, even ones who are native speakers, have accents that are nearly incomprehensible to American English speakers. There are even debates about whether some dialects of English are actually separate languages at this point.

See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_dialects_of_the_Englis...

See also: http://dialectsarchive.com/

It's completely unrealistic in today's global world to expect everyone to speak with the same accent.

Talk.
I bought two of them. Different. They never worked, and were both slow. Mailed one to a fellow HN'er in India, used the other for awhile but was unable to recompile the OS to get things fixed and received zero support online. Felt like the whole thing was compromised from the word go by business people, from my perspective.

I will repeat my take here, for the last time, on where they screwed up: They screwed up by pretending to target low end devices but still only supporting centralized communications. They should have had Ad-hoc/Mesh Wifi as a requirement, and designed the OS API to give those features to developers. Developing world people want to send things between one another, not huddle around shared wifi or pay premiums to carriers. I wrote this up in some detail at https://bug945047.bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=840... ... nobody bothered to reply, except for "wifi supports in FFOS is relied on wpa_supplicant which is provided by partner mostly", ie. the business setup within Mozilla was that the actual device manufacturers were the ones who had control of the wpa_supplicant build, and there was no way for the developers to rely on, require or enforce features in that software being present. Nobody took ownership, everyone lost.
What reason do you have to expect measurement error in this report?
Yes, you should speak.

Congratulations on speaking a second language. Don't be afraid of your accent.
