I forgot to add - I partially agree with you about the productivity of GC. For non-performance sensitive code, GC simplifies a lot. Otherwise, I find Go much nicer to reason about than Java since it has real arrays (value types!).

But I find it a mixed bag of whether the naive Go version of something that shares memory by GC is simpler than the naive Rust version of something that shares memory. Sometimes ref-counting (Rc<T> in Rust) is fine, although that's more expensive than GC. Sometimes Rust's ownership model nudges you to make the code much simpler and makes it clear that something only has a single writer. Sometimes you wish you were in C and just did it yourself...
The effects are really pretty bad after a year and significant even after 6 months with exercise. That's why it was so important to get the transit time down to 3 months.
> It shouldn't be legal to tell someone who owns a home that they cannot rent it out.

I mean, a majority of our forebears thought it should. The original law was passed by a representative democracy. And so was this one. You're one of the (totally guessing) 48% of people that disagree. That's democracy. You have to live with getting out-voted.
I've made it a habit of mine never to read articles whose titles are obviously click bait. Why not? The reason might surprise you!
What if earth patents/IP were invalid on Mars? Wouldn't enterprises race to mars for the chance to code/manufacture components that they are legally and financially restricted from doing on earth?

>Until Mars settlers can build things in-house, they need constant economic support from the earth

This is where digital manufacturing (CNC, laser cutting, 3D printing) actually makes sense. You go with the base materials and blueprints, and you can survive without transferring goods. You manufacture on-demand, and the blueprints can change based on feedback/results. Mars SHOULD have a prototype culture, the same as with explorers. With engineering/research help from earth, a fab lab on mars would be incredibly valuable. Science the shit out of it!
first of all DNS has stood up pretty fantastically to the massive increase of scope since its initial conception. So, congratulations and thanks to PVM and Paul Vixie and all the other countless people who contributed.

So, you're right to point fingers at all the companies with multi-billion dollar caps built on top of BGP, and DNS, and all the clearly inadequate infrastructure.

I think you're falling short by suggesting that companies should have technical specialists.

Ok so we admit that DNS is inadequate for the task. People are dumping a whole lot of policy in there that doesn't make sense. DNS security seems to continue to have limited uptake. Despite any cast the DNS infrastructure is both vulnerable to attack and more importantly able to be used as a amplifier for other attacks.

So sure, insufficient investment by either neutral research funders or commercial entities. But can you imagine what would happen if we tried to get together interested parties and develop a replacement? Even if the end product were technically flawless can you imagine the difficulties in spurring adoption? PVM wrote some RFCs and said 'what do you guys think', and the 50 people around the table said 'seems ok', and some people wrote some code, and everyone else who trusted them installed it because it was better than ftp-ing host.txt files and merging them by hand every month.

can you imagine that happening today? I don't disagree with what you've said, and I'm fundamentally frustrated by this ossification myself. I can't see any answers.
Who said anything about justifying anything? Did you respond to the right comment? Your comment seems to have nothing to do with mine.
There is a difference from general noise of a city and having transient people coming in every few days. People that are on vacation might be up later, making noise later or worse there could be criminals coming in. Sure you may have a problematic long term neighbor, or occasionally your neighbor may make more noise, but on average you are going to have many more problems with random strangers staying at an apartment turned flophouse.

It isn't throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Why should taxpayer dollars be spent investigating many cases of these when it is already illegal to advertise illegal rentals. It is much more effective to stop the advertising and payment scheme for these illegal rentals first.

AirBnB can prevent the throwing the baby out with the bathwater if they simply restricted the amount of time and places that can be rented out. But they know they are making a large amount of money from professional illegal hoteliers with many listings that are exclusively used for rentals. They are the ones that got greedy and got the heavy handed response.
I mean, it has to! You simply cannot build the kind of permanent presence on Mars with disposable rockets and ships, unless you have some sort of super-advanced Von Neumann robots that can be sent once and set it up on their own.
I put together an article a while back comparing a few different frameworks. They all have their pros and cons. I should probably update it to add React Native and NativeScript, but here you go for what it's worth: http://anthonytietjen.blogspot.com/2016/07/choosing-a-mobile...
Last time I checked, Norway, one of the richest and happiest countries in the world, is run as a Social Democracy. Hence, Socialism is not the problem. The problem is, was, and will always be: corrupted humans running it.

In the case of Venezuela, the late Chávez and his friends stole every petro-dollar they could laid their hands on. Obviously, they also made huge public spendings, something that will naturally give a sense of prosperity and economic development, and make them very popular; yet, that public spending was not investment per-se that could later generate wealth. The Bible puts it quite clear: don't give them fish, teach them how to fish.

Now the oil money is gone so is the fake bonanza. Maduro has to stay in power in order to keep himself and his buddies out of jail.
That just asserts that it's the same series of bytes that was originally provided. You still have to trust the provider.
Where did you draw the conclusion that he had a pre-existing condition? I can't find that in the article; it says he was otherwise healthy.

I can see the title being clickbait if it had said "causes", but "leads to" seems perfectly apt.
Again with "trying to reason from the word socialist is not making you more credible".
Will the US Become a Nation of Renters?
I surmise that the OP implies that in his hypothetical, ethics codes hold no merit
The key problem: in-memory data structures can embed ownership of system resources.
Should we say that the space programs in the 60s and the 70s were more successful? specially, if we consider the communication and the control technologies available at that time. For example, vikings had Honeywell 24 bit cpu with 18K memory. What about those Argon computers used in the soviet venera programs?

Or may be, a very fast/accurate computation is not that necessary?
That is also not an accurate statement. Authoritarians can be motivated by greed (Manuel Noriega), or by a desired outcome (Queen Elizabeth), or by ideology (Pol Pot).

There isn't a meaningful spectrum that has "authoritarian" on one side and "communitarian" on the other. One is a "how" and the other a "why".
I would have to disagree with that. Sure the government enforces property right, but ownership can exist without the gov't.
It was written in his style, so I kind of did that automatically.
Ask HN: How to market a newsletter?
How do I share my newsletter with the people that would want it most? (I'm not putting the link in right now because I don't want it to be spam.)
It's a newsletter that picks a topic that I become curious about and explores it over 5 links. It also has 3-4 other really good stories that I read over the week.
How would I market this to jack-of-all-trades curious people? (My opinion is that it's better to be a jack-of-all-trades and be able to know a lot of stuff than to be really knowledgeable but stuck in a minute topic.)
When exporting grade level data, denote kindergarten with a number 0 (zero), not a letter K, and denote transitional kindergarten with -1 (negative one).

I would very much like to believe that you are not saying that Pinochet was better than the alternative. And I too think Venezuela is a disaster.
Because it wouldn't be as sensational if he said it cost $10 million to go vs $200k.
I would express it other way. Right wing dictatorships get support in middle class, while left wing dictatorships get support in working class. Middle class is better educated and more loving of order, so it's easier to structure society and even transitioning to a democracy. We did it in Spain forty years ago. Working class dictatorships need more propaganda, distrust elites (except the very people in politic power) and change, so the paranoia is much bigger.
That's what people said about Mussolini.
Operator overloading is doubly evil :-)

FWIW, I mentioned that I think even the built it infix operators are a bad idea, rather than functions, such as variadic add(...), multiply(...), or(...), and(...). (subtract() and divide() really should only have 2 arguments, and not() just one)
"Similarly, great salespeople have 'advanced interpersonal skills'. They have a great understanding of human motivations, how people think about how to make decisions, and they're great at systematically breaking through worries and concerns and so on."

Good points. I always think to myself, "what product are you selling and to whom?" In the case of startups selling technical users, are advanced interpersonal skills required where a demonstration trumps talk. Can the most verbal hacker do the sales ... or are we talking post VC or startup at the 20-30 ppl scale?
This has been my experience also. I've written at least 40kloc of rust over the past couple years (including complex graphs with cycles, low-level DSP) and I could probably count the number of unsafe blocks I've needed on one hand.

edit: This is not counting FFI though.
Because building a base on Mars is going to require quite a high amount of mass shipped to the planet's surface, much of which will be simple supplies and materials, like food, solar panels, methane generators, and so forth. These things aren't expensive on Earth - they're just very heavy.

And a base on Mars will not be a closed system. It will continuously draw in raw materials from the surrounding environment. Mars is enticing for this because carbon dioxide and water are abundant, giving you the three most important elements for fuel and food production.
Hedge Funds Search for Their Real Killers
Your tone suggests some sort of nefarious plot, but in the US that idea is widely consistent with fairly prevalent preferences for strong private property rights and a distrust of regulation that predates mass media.

A business owner is seen as more like the average person than is a regulator or other academic "public discourse"-spouting person.

Today they're telling Youtube what to do, tomorrow they're telling your company what to do...

See also positions on NIMBYism vs "it's my land, why can't I build whatever I want?", Uber and AirBNB vs existing regulations, and many others.
Yup, happy to see everything on the list.

If one thing more than any stands out it's Rust's commitment not just to building a language but building an incredible community. With how seriously the release processes are being taken to the way new people are welcomed. Serious kudos, I know it's not the most technically engaging work but it makes a huge difference.
No, I mean the foreign policy thinkers of the right wing. The Heritage Foundation, for instance, supported the Contras.
Yeah, DNS entries are usually (or at least used to be) cached for what would seem like long enough, but I guess it doesn't really work the way it sounds. "a hierarchical decentralized naming system [that] provides distributed and fault tolerant service and was designed to avoid a single large central database" doesn't sound like it should be so fragile. Having single 'authoritative' servers for the sort of thing that should be inherently distributed sounds more like an Achilles heel.
$1000/month is not trivial for most people, especially outside of the western world.

Though he should be making enough from the ads on 500k users to cover the costs.
I call 100% absolute total bullshit on the idea that Bernie Sanders takes any of his cues from Michael Moore, and I happily voted against Sanders in the Illinois primary because I thought he'd make a terrible President.

This is an extremely silly attempt to salvage a hopeless argument that Michael Moore is a meaningful data point.
The shell is an invariant for script-based installers (i.e. required no matter what). My workflow is also apparently somewhat different from yours, because I tend to open a new shell for each distinct task.

Still, if you're the type of person who generally has a shell open, you can probably figure out how to pipe something from a URL into an interpreter on your own. Which is the better thing to teach to users that can't figure that out?

I haven't manually deleted a temporary file in years, I just have a cron job that clears out my downloads directory. Though this may be a case where my weird workflow changes things from typical, from what I've seen most people just ignore the temporary files.

Most of your objections to the GUI program workflow don't actually apply to GUI programs. I admit that I forgot about the executable bit. I use a mix of Linux and Windows, and basically zero Linux packages have GUI installers -- most prefer .deb/.rpm files, which would be ideal. So I haven't actually run into that before.

It seems like it's only a couple of clicks to fix the permissions in the Nautilus GUI through Firefox, though. Really I would just run the installer from a shell anyway, but that's part of the better user experience: I get to choose that, it's not forced on me.
The idea of the $200K ticket price is only once the system is mature and well-tested. The early trips will have to cost a lot more. Probably a lot more than $10 million a seat.
All real kingdoms --- not the UK, for instance, which is not in fact governed by a regent --- are dictatorships. Saudi Arabia is, and is.
DeepCrawl: Delivering SEO Confidence
You can call that "getting the government involved" but it's allowing suing for damages due to negligence, which is a fairly basic form of involvement, the sort of thing at the base of the market to begin with. That is to say, it's a bit strange to call this a market failure, because the market will (imo) take care of it once you can assign liability.
Why Do Websites Publish AMP Pages?
If that's the case I highly recommend giving VSCode a spin. With racer I've got solid code complete, goto def and docs.

They've also been making leaps and bounds in terms of features so I can only imagine it improving even more.
It's not really the trip that worries me, it's living on Mars. You need to live under five meters of soil in order to get the same radiation protection as Earth's atmosphere provides. You're basically mole people. Which means the difference between living on Mars and living in windowless apartment complex on Earth is that you can do a couple space suit jaunts through the Martian deserts each week.

People can definitely survive living almost entirely indoors. I expect VR will be big on Mars. But I think the lack of natural light will really limit the comfort level.

If someone can invent an invisible electromagnetic radiation shield that would change the game.
You can't talk negatively about Clinton in Silicon Valley or on any sites run by such people. If you do here for instance you will get downvoted. I think that's a recent HN rule. You have to vote for Clinton or your not one of us.

One way to improve productivity of Rust with respect to the learning curve is to add more screencasts/tutorials to

I found the existing ones very helpful and instructive.
For some additional context:

Vincent Rijmen and Joan Daemen are the co-designers of AES. Later, they collaborated with Gilles Van Assche and Michaël Peeters to design NOEKEON for the NESSIE competition [1]; simultaneously Rijmen worked with Paulo S. L. M. Barreto to design the WHIRLPOOL hash function [2], which became a NESSIE recommendation.

Daemen, Van Assche, and Peeters were joined by Guido Bertoni to create the hash function RadioGatún [3] from Daemen and Craig Clapp's old stream cipher PANAMA [4]. The same team refined the design into Keccak [5], a 'sponge function' primitive they invented [6] that forms the basis of SHA-3.

Every time people say "property rights, free markets", other people keep pointing out that property rights in the US have never been absolute, and really represent a basket of different more specific rights. But people keep wielding the term "property rights" as if it alone was dispositive.
stdlib has plenty of unsafe blocks inside it, as do many crates. Claiming one doesn't use unsafe blocks because none are visible in one's lib.rs or whatever doesn't mean they aren't there.
Python has async/await now too (and it's considerably nicer than JS's version).
Rich-get-richer sounds unfair, but if you controlled studio time, would you give it to Radiohead or Vanilla Ice?

Some people have proven themselves to be really good at things, and it makes sense to give them the resources to do it well.

Most countries also have special funding contests only for young researchers to bootstrap themselves into the main contests.
(ignoring distinction between ColdFusion the commercial product and CFML)

Invision's backend is ColdFusion. ColdFusion still has a ton of use in government, healthcare, etc. It's certainly declined in popularity, and is definitely losing the stickers-on-Macbooks metric, but there are definitely areas where it's still relevant.
Musk said 5% of SpaceX is working on the project and that number will increase over time. That's already 250 of the smartest engineers in the world working full-time on the Mars project. They've already test fired the Raptor engine for the rocket and produced a full scale tank of the fuselage for testing. These guys aren't going for 'exploration' like Zubrin wants, they're going for full scale colonization.

Every ship produced is a new member of the fleet that continually moves between both planets. Opening up an interplanetary transportation corridor. If you're someone with the spirit of a colonist, an explorer, an adventure seeker (there are many in the world with that attitude) then Mars is going to be the place you want to prove yourself on. It is romantic, risky, badass, and there are no shortage of people who are going to take the challenge.

An ever increasing number of ships leave every 2 years, and you always have the option to come back. I can easily see people doing fundraisers to go, universities offering scholarships, governments setting up stations to claim some land, companies sponsoring infrastructure projects to say they have a presence on Mars, etc..

There's certainly a difference between writing one's own unsafe blocks and relying on functionality which was implemented using unsafe in a community project (which has hopefully been vetted by some community members).
Venezuela's been a dictatorship for a long time. How quickly people forget Hugo.
That's kind of a straw man. Musk envisions a city of a million. No one claims a few hundred is a viable back up.
Right, we know that security is a gradient, do you?

There is a quantitative difference between covering your laptop under a coat and locking the car doors and leaving it on bench when you take a walk around park.

Just as there is difference between piping the internet to root shell and installing a signed package that has whole ecosystem and many users validating and looking at it.

Sorry. Generally, when I hear people complain about the lack of "types" in a dynamic language, I'm pretty sure what they mean is [static] "classes", so that "intellisense" (auto-complete, for non-MS/VS-bubble-land) works.

Then next, a hair-brained XML configuration scheme (with reflection) will be used to work around the inevitable deficiencies, which an IDE plug-in may or may not parse accurately.

Tragedy ensues. (Or hilarity, if I get to stand back while somebody else has to support the monster)

YMMV.
