I'm sure that if you read what I wrote again I wrote "not noticably automated" rather than "not automated", specifically for that reason. People don't know that it's there, it's just the way the car naturally handles for them.

Transmission is completely automated. You never have to handle anything that has to do with it.

ABS and TVS changes how the car functions all the time. You have no control over it whatsoever, and it never hands over control to you.

In other words, none of those contradicts anything I said, and I have no doubt that potentially more things like that will come. However, they will still fall under the same two categories: full automation or non-noticable automation.
I have to hand it to Figma. They've managed to make this about as usable as possible. The issue though is that it's still in the browser, and aliasing is very difficult[1]. I eagerly await a macOS release.

If it's hard to get hired as a woman, why not dress like a man?

If it's hard to get hired as a black person, why not bleach your face white?

The real answer is that past a certain age, it's just shitty to be working for other people. But ... some companies have great projects that you can't work on anywhere else.
Typical ageist bullshit. Your argument is if someone is good at something then they are probably not doing it anymore. Newsflash, you were moved out of dev because you have some issue. Most people avoid "architects" which is code for cranky bastard who can't be fired but is likely breaking lots of stuff in the codebase and generally making things bad for the devs of all ages.
On the technology - can this be used to stream the games from the beefy machine I have in the basement?

On the business side of view, how do you plan to make moniez?

> The unique situation here is that Russia had deployed extremely sophisticated surface-to-air batteries.

Single launcher. Full battery has 4 launchers and a significantly more sophisticated radar. Arguably that radar would have helped to sort between Ukrainian observation plane and civilian Boeing.
In addition to that, I would also worry about interactions between issues. I tend to lean towards spreading out the issues over time to make the eventual diagnosis easier.

Occasionally we'll have a problem where we cannot deploy to production for several days (normally it's once a day). A massive inventory of ready-to-deploy features builds up. When we do finally deploy, this deluge of features and fixes creates new issues that force a rollback, delaying the deploy even longer...
Would be nice to know what their pricing plans are before I commit data to their product.
I agree with you, but I think the bridge will be drone drivers as the assisted driver, not an in car driver. I think there will be warehouses full of drone drivers, ready and alert, to jump in at a moments notice to a car that raises an alert to being in a less than ideal situation.

For all those "truck driving simulator" games, maybe there would be a market for "drone driver simulator" where you are dropped into random bad situations and have to successfully navigate out of them.

Most of Apple's current offices in London are based in or around Regents Street, nobody is living in apartments near there. Most people are commuting in already, so it's not a massive upheaval.

Have you ever tried eating that much protein? It's very challenging. Protein fills you up super quickly and keeps you full, and, psychologically-speaking, that's one reason why the keto diet works well when other diets fail.
Don't NVIDIA, AMD, and Steam already provide this?
One reason a lot of people stuck with MacOS 9 for a long time after OS X came out was due to the cooperative multitasking of OS 9 - music software could monopolize the CPU as much as it wanted.

They solve it in modern times by just having fast enough hardware with a bunch of slack for whatever crap might come along in the background, and allowing for a couple ms of buffer. Multicore helps.
If one was to ask you to cite a peer reviewed paper regarding any of this, would it come across as ad hominem and passionate anger?
What would it take to port this tech to Linux, on both sides (server/client)?
From my (limited) perspective, a lot of what made Apple great for professionals is much better software under the hood, starting from the bottom up.

Looking at music applications, for instance, my first impression was that the Core Audio and Core Midi APIs were a heck of a lot better for developers than the Windows equivalent (Win32 I believe for MIDI still, and ASIO for any serious audio). There's even a bigger contrast in mobile: Core Audio and Core MIDI on iOS seem to blow away Android's primitive very primitive audio APIs. (I have done actual development in neither so if anyone has feel free to chime in, this is just from skimming the specs online.)

Happier developers with more rock solid foundations leads to better applications that utilize audio / MIDI (such as music apps) and therefore a better vibe among actual musicians. Apple was always known among artists that I know as the computer that Just Worked and was stable. It's actually hard to think of a show (where the musician used a laptop) where it wasn't an Apple, to be honest.

Unfortunately, in the last couple of years, I've heard a fair amount of grumbling about Apple instability. I think they're in danger of losing their formally solid reputation.
I am not seeing it. People are following the super stimuli of rockets, history etc. while further contributing to pollution and resource depletion. We need a culture that is satisfied with much less, one that overcomes the tragedy of the commons. Tesla might contribute a bit in that regard, but SpaceX is outright opposed to it. If you want to convince people of the future, there are more effective and reliable ways of doing that (for example science, cryonics, education etc.).

Ask HN: Startup Digital Agency targeting the restaurant industry
Were a team of devs (plus a sales/marketing person) with a plan to help independent restaurants fix online ordering problems and optimize their existing websites. How should we be thinking about this? Is there a big opportunity were overlooking beyond individual client business? Ad network/consumer data potential?
Never thought about this, good that it's completely provable:

"If we look at the supporting cast, the 14 most prominent characters are all male before we get to the first woman, Mrs. Krabappel, and only 5 of the top 50 supporting cast members are women.

Women account for 25% of the dialogue on The Simpsons, including Marge and Lisa, two of the show’s main characters. If we remove the Simpson nuclear family, things look even more lopsided: women account for less than 10% of the supporting cast’s dialogue.

A look at the show’s list of writers reveals that 9 of the top 10 writers are male."
Thanks.

Half of those aren't about pushing men into nursing or teaching, not many are in valued news oulets( abc go). Its mostly blog posts, others are about the difficulties being a male nurse or teacher.

I also just googled "men in nursing" and "men in teaching" as quick sanity check.

Its pretty clear there is nowhere the same level of push we have going for women in tech and nowhere near the same social validation for pushing men into those fields.

I don't disagree with you, but there is multi-ms latency typically in local setups as well, so certainly some latency must be tolerated by basically all the games. Carmack had an interesting point about this: http://superuser.com/questions/419070/transatlantic-ping-fas...
When you control your own cache you can set .localhost to whatever you want. Not necessarily true if you cede control of your DNS resolution to a third party.

I would not trust DNS resolution libraries embedded in applications that cannot easily be changed or removed. Especially if they ignore /etc/hosts or point users toward third party caches.

Think of your own cache as a HOSTS file that accepts wildcards.

I didn't read the book but that is entirely too simplistic and comes across as american exceptionalism to me. Not to mention the author has a well defined political agenda to sell I don't necessarily agree with.

I've lived all over the country and all over the world and between countries I'd say it is 100% cultural.

In "europe" employee protection laws make it difficult to quickly hire and fire employees, making it difficult to scale.

In Chile failure was shameful. A stable bureaucratic government job was the most coveted job.

In Japan you are a social outcast if you aren't a company man.

I found quite a bit of entrepreneurial effort in west Africa, however I think that area lacks the required infrastructure to support large scale innovation.

I don't buy the concentration argument within the US borders. The bay area has a population of 7M, the greater NYC area has a population of 20M. Purely based on population numbers it is difficult to believe the bay area has a higher concentration of educated people.
That approach Works well with Q&A too.

You're giving Apple way too much credit.
Not sure what you mean about interventions in the HKD. The HKD is pegged against the USD and it's been that way since the poms were still in power and HK was a colony.

Specifically, since 1983, it has been pegged to the current rate.
So what if the differences in gender are because of educational and cultural reasons? There's always this assumption that all differences between genders are terrible, but I don't really see why this is the case.

Honestly, the only reason I see this being done is so the labor pool for tech workers can go up(and thus pay would go down).
Thanks, I will edit that right now.
Having just moved to the Playa Vista area, $2,000 for a 2 bedroom seems like a steal
What you described there is a middle ground few people want. Those that buy "dumb" phones do so because they want to uncomplicate the basics. eg a real keypad for dialing. Those that want GPS, a web browser and group messaging want a smart phone.

The simplest solution if you don't want social networks et al is to just not install them. Or if you want to avoid "app hell" is to not install mobile apps for websites. These days the only 3rd party apps I commonly use is Google Authenticator, Facebook, Subsonic and LG TV Remote (I have a 2 year old so my actual TV remote often becomes an item of folklore). Even in the case of YouTube I often find myself using the YouTube mobile website instead of the app.
I wasn't aware that the USA still vaccinated against polio, that's interesting to know.

In that case I agree, going against the CDC advice is an anti-vaxxer stance.

yet here we are and I don't see those diseases making big comebacks

Smallpox has been recognised as eradicated globally, so without the intervention of bio-warfare or a lab accident, I think that one's safe to ignore.

Polio has had flare-ups where vaccination levels have dropped (many of these because it's hard to deliver vaccines in a warzone), so if an imported case of polio coincided with an area of low herd immunity thanks to anti-vaxxers, I can see how a flare-up could easily occur in the USA.
How is it even possible to enforce that?
> By the way, did I note correctly that at the price tag was 'only' ten billion dollars to get the first humans on Mars?

Yeah, he did make that claim. I think the specific claim was meant to ONLY cover getting the initial transportation system running, not the cost of setting up an initial colony there. He is focused on the transportation problem and wants other people to figure out how to support human life there.

I was also particularly impressed by the assertion that they would start sending some vehicle in every transit window to mars. Regular cargo flights to mars will be crucial to getting started on the science required to support the initial colony.
Hey, I was vaccinated, and still managed to contract the disease. Doesn't mean you shouldn't vaccinate your kids, kids.

Only positive thing about measles - you theoretically only get it once.
Antivaxxers are calm because they believe they are making the healthiest choice for their kids. Vaxxers are upset because they feel antivaxxers are just relying on the success of vaccinations to diminish disease prevalence and don't really have to worry about their kids running into the disease.

If I knew everyone else in the world was vaccinated, I might choose not to vaccinate my kid. It's a mostly unnecessary risk for my kid since they would be unlikely to encounter it in a completely vaccinated world. But that sort of thinking is horrible for public health.
But what's the concrete proposal?

The default "better idea" seems to be "let the government do it", but if you've been keeping up with the news in the past few years, "the government" doesn't exactly have a stellar track record either. Where a corporation may prioritize making money over security, government prioritize politics over security, wanting to spend money on things that visibly win them political points or power, not on preventing things that don't happen, which aren't visible to anyone. It's the same problem in a lot of ways. And both corporations and governments have the problems that specific individuals can be empowered to make very bad security decisions because nobody has the power to tell them that their personal convenience must take a back seat to basic operational security.

Even the intelligence agencies have experienced some fairly major breaches, which count against them even if they are inside jobs.

"The market screws this up!" isn't a particularly relevant criticism if there isn't something out there that doesn't screw this up.
It is a black and white issue, the potential harms from vaccines are utterly dwarfed by the harms of not vaccinating your child.

Those intelligent an well off parents are not as intelligent as they think, and are probably suffering from the illusion that their comparative expertise in one field maps easily to their biases in others. The pediatrician is simply irresponsible.

The problem with judging arguments by the tone you perceive to come across is that you are likely to assign negative tone to arguments you are already biased against.

And if you use mercola.com as a source, you are already lost to sense.
They should have done this 5 years ago. Dozens Chinese companies can produce quality phones with keyboard.

Imagine if BB would produce hardened-secured-enterprisey version of Android, rather than doing their 'not invented here'. They could had 30% of market by now.
If you haven't adapted in 20 years, is it really ageism?
That would be equivalent to disabling lag compensation, which isn't possible anyways if you're just streaming video. Some older FPS games (Quake 1 original netcode, Halo) don't do lag compensation, and it's not pretty.

The "laggy hitbox" effect only happens because the client predicts non-player actions before the action data actually arrives. The alternative is to have actions "officially" occur when the packet hits the server instead of when the player actually acts, which means that players with high latency will be at a disadvantage. With streaming video it seems this problem is unavoidable.
so all the world have to pay their estate bubble
Would it be fair to say that the go culture optimizes for productivity more than any other characteristic? I'm not really immersed but my outsider observations seem to point that way.
Generating videos from still images
At the end of the day it's just about how local you can make the data centers. If you have a few ms of ping, great bandwidth and hardware to encode the video, it's absolutely feasible.

While the speed of light isn't getting any faster, bandwidth and hardware encoding both are (relative to the speed at which we're increasing resolution and image quality).

And the really nice thing about it is that you can afford to spend an order of magnitude on the hardware if it's shared around and played casually than if it just sits in your closet most of the time. And you can game on laptops or even mobile devices easily.

The experience could actually be fantastic, and hugely social; imagine reading a review with screenshots from the game, and clicking on them allows you to start to playing in under a second from that exact moment, just like you can send a YouTube link mid video.

The trouble is, there are a hell of a lot of cities in the world. In Chicago, everyone could be gaming like this in ten years; but in rural New Zealand?

Chinese billionaire Wang Jianlin warns of 'biggest bubble in history'
Most startups struggle with getting enough traffic so they can get enough leads. Usually what they're looking for is quick ways to get more visitors.

However, I think they're missing something deeper. Before you get more traffic you need to have answers to these questions:

1. Do you have a well-defined target market?  Who are they?

2. Is your target market reachable online?  Where do they congregate?

3. Do you know their primary struggle?  What is it?

4. Do you know how your product helps them make progress?  How does it help?

5. Do you have product/market fit?  What proofs do you have? Examples: high NPS score, large number of pre-orders)
Your stupidity is actively harming innocent people, so please excuse my "passion". Reasoned arguments? All I see is "anecdata" backed up with sources that all link back to the anti-vax echo chamber. It is black and white and if your pediatrician is actually strongly opposed to vaccines... then they should have their license removed.
So where can I buy a credit default swap on Chinese real estate?
I always use dynamic linking but I thought it'd be fun to try making a small, static hello-world. The following assumes x86-64 Linux (and is a total hack that "works for me" NO WARRANTY!).

$ cat test.c
static int sys_write(int fd, const void *buf, unsigned long n)
{
asm("mov $1,%rax; syscall");
}

static void sys_exit(int status)
{
asm("mov $60,%rax; syscall");
}

void _start(void)
{
char s[] = "Hello, World\n";
int r = sys_write(1, s, sizeof(s) - 1);
sys_exit(r == -1 ? 1 : 0);
}
$ gcc -nostdlib -static -o test test.c && ls -lgG test
-rwxr-xr-x 1 1480 Sep 28 11:47 test

More to the point of your question, if you want to see the effect you're looking for, I think you need to link to a libfoo.a library that includes some module.o that your program doesn't use.
If every self driving car drives like a grandma (which they will be legally required to do, I assume), they will not be allowed to ruin the commute of Bostonians. Why do you think there are zero red light cameras in Boston, despite an epidemic of running red lights? The voters here are very particular regarding driving.
Except you don't have access to game state in these cases so there's no adjustment that can be made.

You can only move forward in the frames you display. You can't walk back in time to evaluate a player's action in relation to their latency and then reconcile game state with all other clients.
I see the opposite, rehashes of old ideas rebranded as the latest new hottness. NoSQL was basically what everyone was doing before relational databases came along. Clojure is a Lisp dialect running on the JVM. ORM's are great until you need some complex query, then it helps to know SQL. Algorithmic complexities are the same whether you were squeezing things into a tiny underpowered computer or if you are dealing with terrabytes of data.

Security was abysmal probably because there were nowhere near as many threats.

Some things change. None of it goes away.

I've been doing Keto since Feb 25 2016. My primary goal when switching over was weight loss, which turned out to be easy. I'm 25, male and was experiencing growing health complications related to obesity. I've lost well over 60 lbs since making the switch despite the fact that I maintain a primarily sedentary lifestyle though I now work out weekly as well as take bi-daily walks.

There are downsides though. It's not cheap, it's restrictive and it requires you to build a fairly sizeable knowledge base in order to successfully maintain the diet and your own health. For instance your body consumes more water in order to burn fat stores which leads to the body burning through electrolytes more rapidly. It is very common to supplement electrolytes every day. It is common to drink broth while on Keto in order to cover the daily salt intake requirements of Keto, ~5000-7000mg every day on top of normal dietary salt intake. Failure to cover the daily electrolyte requirement will lead to muscle cramps and more severe symptoms brought on by electrolyte deficiency in the body. Prior to supplementing magnesium I experienced leg cramps and quickly realized what was going on.

However there are significant health benefits. Weight loss, improved mental clarity and better energy levels throughout the day, as well as less need for frequent meals are positive effects that a lot of people experience on Keto. It is also a useful tool for reversing lifestyle diseases such as diabetes type 2 and pre-diabetes.

When it comes to the stuff you "have to give up" while on Keto it's mostly a case of strict moderation rather than completely cutting things out. The things you do try to cut out though like bread, sugar, potatoes, pasta, corn-syrup etc have good alternatives available in most grocery stores. You can bake bread out of almond flour, make pasta out of almond flour (or have someone make it for you), replace potatoes with sweet potatoes and so on.

If you're thinking that keto sounds like it's too much hassle please leave me a reply and I'll gladly talk about whatever you're unsure about.
Pharmacological Induction of Lucid Dreams [0]

Abstract:

>This article explores the effectiveness of using supplements to induce lucid dreams. The method of combining a cholinergic stimulating substance (galantamine & choline) with a deep sleep suppressing substance (sulbutiamine, caffeine, or desmopressin) is examined. Eleven nights of EEG data were recorded from a subject skilled in lucid dreaming techniques. On each experimental night, the subject slept for 3.5-4.5 hours before consuming either a deep sleep suppressing substance (DSS), a cholinergic stimulating substance (CS) or a combination of the two.

>The subject experienced a lucid dream in five out of five trials that included a combination of cholinergic stimulation with deep sleep suppression. Furthermore, the five lucid dream events occurred in the span of 10 calendar days and were all characterized as Wake Initiated Lucid Dreams (WILDs) in which conscious awareness remained during the transition from the waking state to the dream state. A second observation relating the influence of dopamine uptake to the subject’s control over the dream environment is also discussed.
