This tired argument is based upon the assumption that tolerance requires one to tolerate the intolerant. Since the vast majority of progressives reject this, your argument carries no weight.

Drumpf is a racist, misogynistic, Islamophobic, anti-LGBTQ fascist. People who espouse this sort of hatred are fundamentally opposed to the ideas of freedom, equality and diversity upon which this country was founded. Those of us who value the political freedoms of ALL Americans -- including Muslim-Americans, Latinos, and various other groups Drumpf has vilified -- have a responsibility to take a strong stand against that sort of hatred and say no, we won't accept it in our places of work, in our neighborhoods, our places of worship, nor within our political process.

If someone is so attracted to a political process comprised of hate and excluding people based upon the color of their skin or their religious practices, I'd encourage them to move to Russia or Iran. It's 2016, that shit does not work in America anymore, as the Drumpfkins are going to learn on November 8th.

There are two outages there, one that only affected a few projects and one that affected only service in the central US (we have regions over much of the world).

Anecdotally, from watching and working with other services internally I don't think most of our outages affect all regions. We actually spend a significant amount of engineering effort ensuring that we're as decoupled as possible.

False. It has to be perfect or Tesla gets sued. A plastic bag flies in front of your car, the car brakes hard and another one behind you hits yours and gives you whiplash. Lawsuit time.
It's not impossible at all. You can use the raw intrinsics in Rust just like you'd use them in C if you want to.

> The SSE2 code is impossible to translate to Rust, because _mm_sub_epi8 views the registers as std::simd::i8x16, while the subsequent _mm_srli_epi64 views the same registers as std::simd::i64x2

That's false. It might be impossible to implement that code safely using the current simd crate as is (which is not in the standard library), but the simd crate is an abstraction over the raw intrinsics and isn't blessed by the language. You can reach in and use the raw intrinsics (or unsafely cast between SIMD types). If you look more closely at the SIMD algorithm in the regex crate I wrote, you can see that I'm already doing this (to convert from an `&[u8]` to an `u8x16` without bounds checks).

Popping up a level, I can understand why this is not obvious from an outside observer. The SIMD story on Rust is very much still evolving, and we don't have it all completely worked out yet. When we do, I predict it will be awesome. :-) I have a whole bunch of ideas on how to use it to improve text search even more!
When you make heavy use of the "skill moves" - the game becomes much more dynamic. I could see your frustration that without these it's slightly a point and dribble in your direction fest, although I think the newer versions of the game have drastically improved upon this. And I have to respectfully disagree that shots are a roll of the dice - if you play some really skilled people (think top divisions in Ultimate Team), I've gotten crushed without the opponent even entering the 18.

Yes, insofar as anything that allows you to do anything with your computer expands the attack surface.

Just had a flashback to a near death accident in Louisiana on the highway at about 70mph this way. Cloudy no rain, pavement dry, then almost instantly a torrential downpour dumped what looked like a standing half inch of water on the road. The tires lost traction and I slid off into the median. Thankfully I the median was wide and grass and I coasted to a stop (sideways) about a yard from a tree. If you've driven I-10 through Louisiana you know what I mean.

Not sure what an autonomous car could have done in such a situation but anticipate that maybe we should preemptively pull over for a bit before it starts raining.
Maybe although I make a 10 times the size of earth planet at 20 times the distance of Neptune equivalent to a 77km wide main belt asteroid, so maybe not all that noisy. Plus the predicted orbit tilt must help a lot. Sounds like a doable big data problem to me.
As the GM of a amateur youth team (one of the parents has to do this role here), I've watched the coaches trying in despair to make players unlearn things that the boys picked up from playing the FIFA series games.

Mostly it's about tricks that are much more prominent in the video game than they ever can be in real life, because the gameplay is not entirely realistic. The gameplay on screen rewards visual stunts that are much less effective in real play. The movement of ball and players doesn't actually have to be like it is in reality, because it is a video game. It's adjusted for visual appeal.

Where this is most often seen is passing the ball up in the air; this enables the video game to show amazing slow-motion captures of skill, but on a real football field such gameplay is not effective; in fact it is stupid.

In video gameplay, the characters make the ball traverse in a slo-mo arch, all the other moving objects maybe slow down, and the player receiving this pass then picks it up with amazing skill.

In real gameplay, it is better to keep the ball on the ground and pass quickly. A ball flying in an arch in the air travels more slowly, so the opponent has time to come close end press the ball; a flying ball is more difficult to control so it is slower to receive and pass on; making an accurate pass with a ball up in the air is much more difficult than controlling a ball rolling on the ground.

Thus, playing like FIFA just means you lose the ball to the opponents and you lose the game.

Also, things like a bicycle kick tend to succeed in a video game, but in real life they are exceedingly difficult to score with.

It bothers me that they claim to witness "circuits" connecting different areas of the brain. AFAIK they just use FMRI or similar to see which regions are active and make correlations, which is quite different that watching an actual circuit or "neural pathway" firing in real time.

Well, it has always been subject to the political pressure from various lobbies and interests...

Judges can write whole treatises with delicate legal interpretations to justify their alliances, government pressure and/or under the table money.

Kind of like medieval religious scholars could write treatises on how many angels fit on the head of a pin -- it pays well and furthers their friends cause.

Between those issues, the death penalty, three strikes laws, and such -- not to mention widespread litigation mania--, the legal code there is kind of the joke in the western world.
hehe, right, but it will get messy in a crowd. Maybe fun though, if the phones first try to agree on a timing.
I beg to differ, to me python (and js) are tolerable languages only when they are controlled with linters and automated tests. And pylint is still the best linter for big python projects. It is fully configurable and each and every default rule is interesting per se. For example, a class with no `__init__`, no or too many attributes or methods, is a potential code smell and candidate for refactoring.
My bootcamp was for data science, so not exactly comparable to software/web dev camps - but it cost me about $9k + living expenses.

Have pylint integrated with sublime and configured it to run checks on every save. Its really a life saver!

Plus if you want to disable some features you can even do it at the local level rather then having a single central rule. eg:- using #pylint: disable=I0011,E0401 in your .py files.
That would be true if there weren't organizations or people that could go through that trove of data and publish articles about it.

What you seem to be advocating for is that in order to release factual informaton it has to have an approved message associated with it first?

Dear god, the copy on that page is awful. The first paragraph is just vacuous twaddle. Anyone who starts a minor product announcement with the words "Today, we’re excited to announce..." deserves their own circle of hell. Most of that first section is redundant preamble and should be rewritten as bullet points.

In fact the whole thing could do with being rewritten in a simple bullet-pointed skimmable form. That way I wouldn't have to come to HN comments to find out what the hell it's all about. Is it too early in the day for a drink?
FWIW, `cmd.exe` is both, the shell and the console. It is not a terminal (not designed to be operated remotely) nor is it emulating a terminal of any kind.

As for the parent poster, they must be abusing the term `ConEmu`, a completely separate console program that can run win32 programs (including `cmd.exe`).

That's what I was thinking. The various outages I've seen (at least big enough to get mentioned here) seem to affect things globally. The AWS model is traditionally having things isolated between regions. While that makes programming slightly more complicated, for me it creates an added layer of safety.
It's an interesting phenomena. On a regular basis stories about the various problems of scientific quality make it to HN, e.g. recently this one [1].

On the other hand every now and then a study that is almost certainly completely bogus and of such low quality that it basically says nothing at all also is very popular.

Add to that the regular comments of the form "maybe this study isn't that good, but my personal anecdotes show ..."

I'm pretty sure the EULA wouldn't be enforceable in the EU, though. The vast majority of EULAs currently in existence are unenforceable in the EU except for the most basic restrictions that would probably be obvious even without a EULA.
I think it's more complex than that (although most monitors are too bright).

For pure black on pure white, my 'pleasant' brightness is somewhat lower than my 'easy to read' brightness. I'm reading in a space with high ambient light, and the contrast stays obnoxious until it becomes difficult to use. (I wish E-ink monitors were a thing.)

For something like HN's color scheme, or a strong Flux setting, I can find a comfortable middle ground of readable and relaxing. I'm not sure why, but adding a bit of tan/yellow to the background makes a huge difference for me.

Is that a common practice with news sites? ...seems kind of silly to me.

EDIT: Wow, derp. I never realized the HN link labeled "web" takes you to a web search for the title of the submitted article, so that you can bypass the paywall. Thanks for the insight, everyone!
I guess the concern is that both sides will get expert witnesses with equally long CVs to make equally compelling arguments and then it's on the jury to decide which PhD they want to believe. Not sure how that helps.
Yeah, because then I know to ignore the listing.

If I came from a place that paid $50k, I'd expect them to be able to give me a small bump but likely land me in the low-to-mid part of the range and I'd apply. If I came from 75k I'd expect higher end of the range, and I'd apply. That could be unreasonable depending on how they place different tiers of engineer on that range, but if it is then it's better to split out the jobs by title (Software Eng Jr./Sr/Staff/Principal). If I came from over 100k I'll pass because I don't think they can afford me regardless of title.

I imagine an 'absolute' AI would be something like Buddha. It would transcend programs.

It would absolutely strive to exist harmoniously with nature, would not stretch for things that are not needed, would not propagate (multiply) for the sake of increasing its kind..etc.

This makes me think why we cannot think that ultimate AI would be very difficult to distinguish from todays concepts of Messiah & God.
It also makes it very easy to suppress wages...

It's starting to get out of hand. I purchased a Toyota last year and magically get updates and phone calls about scheduling maintenance. This means the car is sending data to the mothership without anyone realizing it. They have all your driving habits and likely share it with however they want. You can't stop it and most people don't realize it is even happening.
To be clear, using SIMD doesn't require some "non-standard extended C dialect." We very much want a better SIMD story on Rust, and the benchmark game entries should definitely be allowed to use SIMD.

SIMD will get you into platform specific woes unfortunately, but that shouldn't stop us. :-)
Hopefully any autonomous system will be able to make the call of whether it is safe to drive itself - whether because of heavy rain, blizzard, tornado etc. Some situations are just not safe to drive a car in, regardless of who's driving.

It's not hosted on "our own website" - our licence fee isn't paying for it, neither is HM Government; hence we cannot read it because the BBC cannot engage in commercial activity - I assume it has ads, or maybe a paywall - in the UK.

> BBC WORLDWIDE IS THE MAIN COMMERCIAL ARM AND A WHOLLY OWNED SUBSIDIARY OF THE BRITISH BROADCASTING CORPORATION (BBC). OUR VISION IS TO BUILD THE BBC'S BRANDS, AUDIENCES, COMMERCIAL RETURNS AND REPUTATION ACROSS THE WORLD.

> BBC Worldwide helps keep the Licence Fee as low as possible, returning £222.2m to the BBC in the last financial year, an increase of 17.6% from 2014/15, adjusted for disposals, and equivalent to 13.0% of BBC Television content funding in the year.

Why, though, they don't duplicate the content with the IP-restriction instead of paywall/ads/whatever it is, I'm not quite sure.
On the one hand, it's absolutely appropriate for people to raise questions about these types of contract/license terms and have a discussion around them. On the other hand, as a practical matter, this particular case is a complete non-issue. Anyone who thinks a car being sold today is ever going to be remotely capable of fully autonomous operation, software updates notwithstanding, is... optimistic.
Yes, it's Gouda in English as well. It's named after a city in the Netherlands.
Maybe you'll feel like me when I watch some very old soccer games (Atari era) where the ball is almost entirely free. It makes things much more dynamic and vibrant. Probably 10x more tedious (I was too young to have such games at the time). But it seems closer in spirit to what I felt on the field.

I stopped playing video games in the early 2000s, games post PES 2003 had no more appeal to me, it was a bad blend to new tech and less fun. I missed the arcade sim of first PlayStation PES (and yes, official names didn't matter).
I mean, i have yet to find a registrar that has all the TLDs i want. However, most of the TLDs i want i already find too expensive.

If this type of service minimizes "their cut" to the bare minimum, and made it very transparent who it was coming from so i could price check, i would likely use this service because they're bound to have more TLDs (due to aggregation) than typical registrars.

Unfortunately, currently i feel like i'd just be paying a significant premium for something i already find too expensive. And if this isn't true, i see no information to indicate otherwise (at a quick glance, at least).
Google penalizes sites that don't show the same content the crawler saw to to users clicking links, so if you want your content to be indexed and high in the rankings you have to give visitors from Google the full articles. Nobody else has the market power to do that, so links from all other sites lead to the paywall.
Helping another person is hardly ever a bad idea.

Or in other words, don't hate the player, hate the game.
Good question. I'll try to answer: We are wondering if all the hard work to make that pasta is worth it. It can't possibly be. But maybe it is?
have you played the latest games? trying not to sound like a fanboy but they play great. the most fun you have, just like in 5 a-side, is just trying tricks out and mugging people off! like the article says, "The reaction to them among professionals suggests they are succeeding". I mean if it gets the thumbs up from professionals they must be doing something right, just sounds like you just simply don't enjoy the game.

They just use /dev/urandom + sha512, and them capitalise some characters. You can pipe /dev/urandom input into any number of tools locally to get random strings - base64 is nice as it gives you a wider range of characters.

A recent feature of HN actually uses this trick. If you look on the comments page for any article, there's a series of links: "flag | hide | past | web" and so on. The link labeled "web" takes you to a web search for the title of the submitted article, so that you can bypass the paywall.

I agree it's very silly.

The problem with whitelisting is that you never un-whitelist some things, depriving yourself of potentially useful feedback.

Better to run with -E first, address those, then add in warnings, and blacklist the points which are actually not useful.
