Tried this once and found that JAL will not sell tickets to anyone with a middle name. (Presumably due to a bug on their website, where you can only enter given and family name for the ticket, but you have to use your middle name for Secure Flight, and when they don't match, it fails. No combination of putting my middle name in the given or family field worked. Ended up booking an AA codeshare for $55 extra dollars :/)

He never said 'uninvited'. You are putting that word in his mouth because of your bias.

He said at least one thing that shows his belief that whoever he's referring to was ok with it, as he said something like, "when you're famous, they let you do anything".

I have turned down several jobs when they tried to hit me with that clause. I have negotiated a better clause that gave them the work I made for them, which just happens to line up with state law here

I wouldn't want to hire someone who didn't enjoy coding enough that they didn't have something on publicly visible repo.
Predictable reactionary article. Did they claim there was something wrong with the philosophy of people who produce spinach when that caused massive outbreaks of e-coli? Or blame the modernity of beef producers when mad-cow disease broke out?

Our culture is full of manufactured food that doesn't even attempt to provide nutrition. While it would be lovely if we could all eat out of our own private gardens and vineyards, something like soylent seems like a step in the right direction.

As a native English speaker, I would pronounce "Doudou" the same as I'd pronounce "Loulou" -- "Doo doo" and "Loo loo" respectively.

Thanks for this, looking through the wikipedia page on Adult ADHD hits a little close to home.

This is precisely why the Turing Test is so tricky for machines. Knowing the parameters, any regular human could test even the most advanced present-day AI and reveal it as a machine with very little effort and only a few questions.

> We can tell if an AI is functional in some environment or responds well to social queues by interacting with it. But not much else. Not how 'intelligent' it is for instance.

The Turing Test does not intend to determine level of intelligence (it's not an IQ test). It is intended to determine whether the intelligence you're interacting with is advanced enough to fool you into thinking they are of human nature.

It is not a test of degree of intelligence, but rather of its nature. Human / not human are the only two possible outcomes.

Why is this written as though all of Silicon valley is behind Soylent? It's mildly insulting.
Maybe they'll come out with a new version that actually has flavor? Maybe even a little rebranding?

Honest question: why does a SSL certificate need SHA-2? In other words, where does hashing factor into the asymmetric crypto process? So from my cursory understanding of SSL, it uses RSA to exchange a symmetric key which is then used for the remainder of the session.

I'm interested in crypto systems but still getting my feet wet, so a simplified answer would be really appreciated! Also, pointers to any articles or papers would be great.
> What Soylent and the latest batch of food-tech startups are aiming for takes us back to the days of astronaut ice cream.

What?

> Remember that stuff? It was developed as part of the space program in the nineteen-sixties, and you bought it in the sort of science stores that were toy stores for nerds. It was sweet. It came in ice-cream flavors. But it wasn’t ice cream, it was a simulation of ice cream, and no one in their right mind would chose it over the cold, creamy stuff on a hot day. Not even an astronaut.

Soylent isn’t a simulation of food. I’m pretty sure it explicitly chooses not to simulate food. And people are choosing to eat it.

As others have said, speak for yourself.
The "End of Food" narrative for Soylent is artificial controversy created by the media to grab clicks. It's encouraged by the Soylent company because coverage -> sales. But, it was never the goal of the product and I don't think a large minority of the products users intend to use it as such.

Soylent is a great option to have when you want it. Slowly enjoying traditional food is still very nice. It's going to be OK.
In most cases that's true, though by "working" I don't mean just actually working for someone else but rather doing anything I like.

I don't really care about food but I gotta eat it to do stuff I enjoy. Soylent helps out in that case because it fills me up, is healthy, and is quick.

I already have my nice dinner with girlfriend once a day, not every meal has to be like that. I'm not sure why anti-Soylent people believe Soylent users only drink Soylent.

You have synchronization problems when every hill has it's own fiefdom. You get political deadlock, effective NIMBYism, corruption too small to get sunlight repeated at every hill, and things like making a metro transit system impossible because 60 municipalities can't work together.

Just think about the general issues of a HOA gone bad and how hard it can be to deal with it without great personal cost. That is the problem of micro government in a nutshell.

Scalable government is a hard problem in general.
Fully agree - it should really be a protected clause for employment.

Let's say the 50% that support the left controls all the jobs as an example. Then you can fire the opposition if you don't fall in line and do what you're told. That's a scary thought.

I'm third party but I find it amusing and disturbing to watch both sides. If you can't understand why people don't like Hillary you're not being honest or open with yourself. The same goes for Trump.

It may not be in that particular sentence since he's directing that "A+" label towards the candidates. (He's being genuinely charitable towards the job seekers.) However, when he's directing the "A+" label towards the interviewing team, it comes across as a backhanded swipe.

Perhaps calling it "sarcasm" is too strong since his sarcasm is very subtle. If you integrate his entire essay about "Technical Interview Rift", he essentially wants to lecture the "too cool for school" dev teams that pride themselves on Fibonacci puzzles, etc. However, he can't go into full-frontal sarcasm mode like Stephen Colbert / John Stewart because he doesn't want to make the very audience he's trying to reach tune out from his message.

Therefore, he has to dance around his intended message in such a way as to not insult his target. There's probably a better word to describe what he's trying to accomplish but I couldn't think of it so I called his passive-aggressive tone: "sarcasm".

The Text Editing Kata
I understand your frustration. The desire to respond in a constructive way is necessary for us to go forward, especially now. For me, a part of that is to try my best to (a) give the people I'm talking to the benefit of the doubt that they're engaging in good faith; and (b) try not to use language that escalates any tensions. Online text discussion makes this especially fraught, given its low-bandwidth: we only get the text, without the benefit of other channels such as voice inflection and body language.

One tool HN provides is the ability to view a user's other comments, which can provide a gauge to measure whether someone is engaging in good faith.

And there's always the choice to not respond. If you think someone is just looking for attention, not responding might be the right course of action. Once people get angry or frustrated, it's probably better to just back off and try again some other time. And in general I'm thinking of myself as well to those I'm engaging with.

Or if you don't think you have something meaningful to add. Sometimes that's hard to do because you think the conversation is important and want to participate.

Please don't interpret anything I've written as criticism of either you or tptacek. For the record, from what I've seen both of you are thoughtful and engaging honestly. I also hope this doesn't come off as preachy. These are just the heuristics I've been using. Some others are Rapoport's rules [0], which I think are really insightful. I'd love to hear how others approach this as well.

I've thought about all these things in writing this comment, and I'm still unsure whether I should click the "reply" button. I do think it's important to try to keep these types of conversations going, and I know I need the practice, so in good faith I'm willing to put my neck out another time.

I love the New Yorker. I have a subscription and I read it regularly.

I'm also a hedonistic participant in the "recent arc of food culture" that embraces locally grown ingredients prepared lovingly by chefs with a creative vision. Gramercy Tavern, the New York restaurant that most embodies this recent arc, takes a bite out of my paycheck multiple times a month.

But what the New Yorker assumes is that this kind of food, and the time and money to consume it is equally available to everyone at all times. That is absolutely not the case.

There are three key demographics for Soylent in my mind:

1. The efficiency obsessed engineer who will use Soylent as a primary food source.

2. Someone who has limited access to nutritious food due to geography or income and frequently prefers Soylent to the alternatives.

3. Someone who has the income and ability to enjoy well-prepared meals, and does so frequent,ly but occasionally finds themself unable to do so because of time or geography.

I'm in the last camp as are a number of my friends. Not enough time to get a proper breakfast - Soylent/Coffiest. Commuting to a client office for lunch and no good options nearby - Soylent. It is possible to make those choices and then enjoy a dinner where you relish the flavor and texture of the tomatillos in your salad.
Bullshit? OK, thanks for explaining why you think my argument is bullshit, even if I think that language is unnecessary.

But I do disagree. If I write a hit song and die before the copyright ends than sure, let my family have a cut. But even five years after the term of it ending is too long in my mind.

And, no, I also don't think it's fair that someone reap the benefits of a work for their entire life (assuming they live a long life). People have to work for a living. If you only come up with one hit song in your life that makes any money I believe you'll need to suck it up and find something else to do for a living.

And to be clear, I love music, I play music and I have spent many, many thousands of dollars on music in my life. I have no problem with people getting paid, just not riding it out forever. Especially when the industry is set up to give most of the benefits of long term copyright to the industry, not the artists.
Mercurial doesn't use semantic versioning. If tooling that depends on mercurial breaks in a mercurial update, this is often considered a mercurial regression, so long as the tooling isn't using mercurial's internal APIs which have no backward compatibility guarantees.

I do know that the person primarily behind kiln harmony left a while ago and now works at Khan Academy.
The thing which Soylent gets right is trying to come at it from a nutrition standpoint first. That's definitely a much better starting place than the rest of the industrialized food world.

That said, I think the idea of a single optimal meal replacement is fundamentally flawed. Our understanding of nutrition and metabolism is still very rudimentary. My opinion is that it's dangerous to move away from whole foods today, not because of some natural food fallacy, but simply because we don't know everything that's going on with digestive and nutritional health. It may very well be the case that no single food is optimal to eat all the time, and that the body needs different rhythms of food intake over time to create baseline stresses for the organism to respond to metabolically.
Thanks a lot for your feedback. Regarding all UI/UX issues, we are aware of them. Unfortunately, we don't have a web designer in our team and for an early beta, we don't want to spend money on one. But we plan to hire one in near future.

1) We use the splash screen to hide ugly page when javascript is not loaded yet, maybe we should prerender the view?

6) Very good point. We definitely should place the information on the iOS app coming soon, I do not know how we could have missed it.

7) Good point, we plan to use mail in the yarofit.com domain in future.

8) We'll double check it!

Thank you again, very valuable feedback!

Bread is super annoying in this regard. I eat a single slice every morning for breakfast, which means I can't go through a whole loaf before it starts getting moldy, or at least stale.
> bread/buns before they grow stale or mold.

Bread keeps for months if you freeze it immediately after buying it (slice it first if it doesn't come pre-sliced). Then, just pop it into the toaster whenever you want to eat some, and it comes right back to life, not stale-tasting at all. I don't eat food at home that often, but I haven't had to throw away any bread from mold or staleness since I started freezing it.
Obscurity is mostly useless. But minimizing the attack surface[1] is certainly useful. Changing the SSH port, port knocking, IP restricting which hosts can connect, etc., are all methods of reducing the attack surface. If you have a service (like SSH) that doesn't need to be available to every possible internet host then don't expose it to every possible internet host.

Can you SSH into an AWS load balancer? No, but someone is, or is otherwise managing these servers.

So release more information that allows the people to make rational choices. The people are irrational because they are treated as pawns and manipulated with controlled information. If two countries are negotiating in ways that would upset their own citizens, then those countries' leaders should only blame themselves for the way they have conditioned their citizens to behave.
The same meal over and over does not sound appealing to anyone I think. Even I would not want to eat pizza 7 days a week.

But even putting your feelings aside, the issue with the same meal over and over is that it does not provide your body with what it needs. Soylent solves that: have Soylent and you don't have to worry about varying your meals, or about how much salt, sugar or fat you are eating.

And going back to the feelings side, Soylent feels different. It's supposed to be like that, and that somehow makes it feel much more okay. There are also variants that add flavors (making me worry about sugars again, but not as much as with normal food), for example I usually order a week's worth of food which comes in 5 different flavors (so you have two duplicates). I take about a year to consume them though, it's not like I run on Soylent full-time.
I think if Apple wanted to enhance its recruiting in machine learning, it would have to visibly change its openness. So far it has not done that.
When there is an emergency humans look for an explanation of the events. Even when there is no possibility of finding one, they will still choose a fictional one derived from their existing world views.

Putting huge effort into explaining a true emergency (eg fire, fight etc) is evolutionary useful, doing so for a non emergency is not.

For a complex of reasons related to modern communication and the nature of celebrity among other things, the latest events around Assange feel like an emergency to some people and so they desperately seek an immediate explanation at all costs.

In general this is always a problem because those removed from events could use their distance by calmly looking at the situation objectively and rationally instead of promulgating a wave of attractive but erroneous conspiracy theories (which are always entirely destructive).

As a life rule it is convenient to note which category various information sources fall into.
> I asked for references to support that claim already -- got nothing from dpark...

Where in the Geneva conventions does it say that they apply to all warring parties? I'm genuinely asking. My understanding is that they apply to signatories only:

https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/applic/ihl/ihl.nsf/ART/375-59...

In addition to the provisions which shall be implemented in peace time, the present Convention shall apply to all cases of declared war or of any other armed conflict which may arise between two or more of the High Contracting Parties, even if the state of war is not recognized by one of them.

The Convention shall also apply to all cases of partial or total occupation of the territory of a High Contracting Party, even if the said occupation meets with no armed resistance.
Although one of the Powers in conflict may not be a party to the present Convention, the Powers who are parties thereto shall remain bound by it in their mutual relations. They shall furthermore be bound by the Convention in relation to the said Power, if the latter accepts and applies the provisions thereof.

So, it applies to conflicts between signatories or conflicts involving a signatory and a non-signatory who accepts the terms of the convention. So you're right that it's not strictly nation states. But it's also not every combat participant by my reading.

> What your position is based on, according to yourself, is wrong. I added this link around ten minutes before you posted that:

> It address exactly those unlawful combatants and laws.*

This is not a treaty. Also, the problem with retaining people indefinitely doesn't go away because we pass a law declaring that we can call them combatants. We know that we have detained innocent people in Guantanamo for extended periods of time. You can legally call them whatever you want, but it's still morally repugnant to hold innocent people indefinitely. (It is morally repugnant to hold anyone indefinitely without trial because it indicates an unwillingness or inability to establish guilt.)
How does making rare item combinations available based on willingness to grind them out become intellectually complex?

One ethos of my game is going to to be "work smarter, not harder." The kind of player who feels entitled to succeed just because they've spent enough time mindlessly grinding resources, so feels entitled to have awesome stuff dropped -- I hope those people spend their time elsewhere.

The player will be able to find very pointed capabilities that come with big disadvantages. The point will be to improvise around those weaknesses while exploiting contextual advantages. Others may choose to exploit in-game scripting and manufacturing capabilities to automate the search for certain technology combinations, but this will entail maintaining installations and the combat force to defend them.

>Political positions are moral positions, to believe otherwise is hopelessly naive //

But so to is to believe that one can't vote for someone who has acted, or intends to act, immorally and yet maintain the most ethical position.

Here in the UK for example: suppose one party is for nuclear weapons, another is for killing the NHS, another is for war in Syria. I might consider all those positions immoral but nonetheless I'd [most likely] cast a vote.

From the OP:

>"This isn’t voting for an economic or social policy — this is literally paying a huge amount of money to directly support [...unethical acts...]."

So, if you see Clinton winning as leading to even greater travesties what should you do? Not vote for Trump, Trump is surely the only other reasonable option.

Maybe Thiel does support those unethical acts, but we surely can't tell, it seems as likely from the sidelines that he simply sees that if Trump gets in Thiel personally will be better off. That seems to be the way a lot of people vote.
Flavor isn't the end-all be-all goal of food. I regularly drink soylent, and I could care less that it is basically tasteless. I drink it because it's cheap and takes ~15 seconds to open and finish. No grocery shopping for it, no cooking/meal prep required. When I'm eating alone, that is all I care about.
Calling anybody who supports Trump a racist old white is an example of what I mean.

Better to argue against his beliefs and actions rather than just write off his supporters as a lost cause.
