Automation can be great. But we need to think long and hard about what to do with those that are going to be left behind. Job retraining can help somewhat, but a person who was 10 years or so away from retirement isn't likely to be helped by that, as they're going to have a very difficult time finding a job.

And please don't say "basic income". There is no way that is anywhere near politically feasible right now.
Technically it is the case that the given fragment shader is doing the same thing as direct UV modification. It doesn't really change the fact that it's texture distortion, it's just that the fragment shader is capable of doing it on a per-pixel basi.
Some evidence in favor of this argument is that automation is taking jobs even when it's impossible for those jobs to be outsourced: e.g. in coal mines.
I was deeply into Nintendo games in the late 90s leading up to Wind Waker's release. I remember after it was announced that so many people were deeply disappointed in these "kiddy" graphics.

Remember that as far as the major releases go it was released in 2002 after Ocarina of Time in 1998 (and a sequel using the same engine in 2000).

People wanted a "real" Zelda game with "real" graphics, like what became Twilight Princess in 2006, whose graphics are a logical follow-up to Ocarina of Time.

It's funny how history turns out, now Wind Waker is widely lauded for its graphics, and it looks much better than the likes of Ocarina of Time or Twilight Princess.

It's a fantastic example of how Nintendo is still a company that dares to experiment, even with their most wildly successful game franchises. That hasn't always worked out, but we've gotten amazing innovative games like Wind Waker as a result.
>>> I do hope you'll understand how someone can be wary to unquestionably validate generalizations about anyone, including liberals, without being provided much insight to the specific statements or situations that have preceded them.

Sure. But, as an example, one would have to be [intellectually?] dishonest to turn a blind eye to rampant namecalling and smear campaign tactics "the left" has employed during the elections. Don't think you need to go as deep as to analyze specific situations to see that.

Unfortunately not entirely true, depending on where you live.

Americans would be astounded to learn the usual settlements awarded for deaths due to traffic accidents (as an example I'm familiar with) in South America.

Payments of 25.000 dollars aren't uncommon. Colombia and Uruguay pay around U$ 150.000 per death. Heck, even first world countries like Spain can pay less than that.

I wouldn't be surprised if there will in fact be a new border wall. If there's anything I've learned from this election cycle, it's that many of us have repeatedly and consistently grossly underestimated what's possible in politics.

Presidents generally do try to fulfill their campaign promises, and building the wall is the biggest, most concrete, and earliest campaign promise he made. Realistically, it's also one of the most straightforward of all his promises to achieve, and at $25-30B it's not very expensive in the grand scheme of a presidency. Its overall effect will be minimal, meaning that it won't wreak havoc, it won't do much good either (in fact it might ironically backfire by keeping people in instead of out), but it will satisfy his supporters.

I'm assuming you saw the name and the title and assumed a great deal about the article, which I admit I did as well, but I recommend giving it a read. He directly addresses the divisive nature of the two party system and the equal responsibility both parties have in bringing it about.

It's clearly Glenn Beck's attempt to open up a meaningful dialog between the warring parties, both politically and personally. It's something we're all going to have to do, or all of the great evils we fear will arise from this election's results may truly come about.

And it absolutely must start by not seeking out a label, or a quote, or some ad hominem reason to outright dismiss someone before you've heard them out.
Ask HN: Brainstorming Analytics. What's the best way to share ideas with others?
Does anybody else share my pain? Here is the dilemma I am in:

At this point I have seen hundreds of co-hort and funnel analysis. I know all about designing star/snowflake/EAV schemas across dozens of db dialects (be that BigQuery, Redshift, Vertica, etc). I have performed dozens of implementations of Facebook/Google/Segment/(you name it) analytical funnels.

All of the above is great when I am approached to architect analytics for yet another e-commerce start-up or a young SaaS business. I am starting to feel like 50%-80% of the work is repeatable (albeit, still requires custom modeling/SQL/ETL).

The problem I keep running into is the other 50%/20%. And that is the stuff I feel that actually makes companies money.

Some say that Data Science is the answer, but from my personal experience with a Data Science gig back in 2013, I beg to differ. Many companies just don't know what those long-running drivers of growth are, so there is no point in optimizing with statistics or machine learning.

All of this is also new tech, so no one really knows what the long-running drivers of growth should be. People working at the same company often have contrary opinions. In this environment, Data Scientists just get the most credibility and time to try stuff out. But statistics won't in itself give you ideas.

With that I am starting to feel more and more the need for an analytics community. Some place where I could ask people about problems with the hope that someone can recognize similar patterns they've encountered.

Am I the only one?

I totally read the article. i said he sounds almost reasonable. But that does not erase his body of work in the 2008-2012 years. You cannot make yourself rich with Fox dough and then - oh well, we must unite, when you are probably guilty for 8 to 10% of that division.
I mean, Trump is arguably FAR more involved with Epstein though - he literally has a quote saying that he acknowledges Epstein surrounds himself with young women:

“I’ve known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy,” Trump told New York Magazine for a 2002 profile of Epstein. “He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it — Jeffrey enjoys his social life.”[1][2]

How can someone come to the conclusion that this means only Clintons support this? Clearly the common denominator is rich people abusing their power to rape children, not politicians raping children, and not Clintons only raping children. Rich people are abusing their power and America voted to fix it by electing a rich person who has abused that power.

From the pro-life point of view, it also affects the unborn child who is murdered. For many of them, abortion is literally the same thing as letting people kill their toddlers because they decided that they don't want them for whatever reason. This is the divide.

(I realize that there are other pregnancy complications that don't literally equate to having an inconvenient toddler, and pro-lifers aren't as consistent on how they view those cases, but those are a small minority of abortions.)

It could be but it's not. The same phenomena happened with Facebook. Ordinarily Facebook is a pariah among enlightened and virtuous Internet folk; compromising privacy and marketing their users for ad revenue, etc. But then someone accused Facebook of grooming their news feed to suppress stories that might validate right wing/conservative/republican/whatever views and Shazam! I've never seen so many corporate sovereignty advocates lecturing the world about how Facebook is free to do with its news feed whatever it wishes, imbued with the right of free speech, and how dare anyone in Congress have the temerity to mention the I word. How chilling!

Tesla is another great example. Ordinarily, self serving research by a corporation is dismissed as junk science or "misinformation." But let Tesla publish survey results [1] to argue their end of a regulatory dispute and that view ricochets around the progressive echo chamber as though a voice from the sky had spoken The Word, Tesla of course being the golden boy of anti-fossil fuel group thinkers.

The sudden concern for the consequences of stopping these big trade deals is nothing more than partisanship. Pretend otherwise if you wish, but it's dead either way and the world is better for it. Thank you President Elect Trump.

They already possess white privilege. No matter how bad their situation, all other things being equal, if the color of their skin were black instead of white, they would be treated worse by the society around them and our social institutions. They would have found it more difficult to get a good education, more difficult to get a job, more likely to be harassed by the police, more likely to be thrown into jail for offenses that would merit a slap on the wrist for a white person.

I do not know the best way to convey this to poor whites. It certainly presents a difficult task to tell someone who has struggles with life, or has overcome almost unsurmountable obstacles, that they have it easier than others. But some have given it a try:

That's a very idealistic view. You can't have lots of more or less equally strong parties -- only a very few. From those few all secretly want to switch to 1).
They didn't even improve actuation. Instead, they appear to have used a specially-constructed cube (no doubt designed to be suited for their machine) and literally bolted their actuators to the center caps. I'd like to see them do this with an unmodified vanilla cube like the other cube-solving machines I've seen.

If you want impressive actuators, check out modern pick-and-place machines [1].

If you look just at the shield of deterrence that the U.S. has held over western Europe, it has allowed the growth of both social democracy and of the common market there. European nations all spend a much lower percentage of their budgets on defense than the U.S. does. While their citizens take that as a sign of cultural superiority, their leaders know that it is made possible by NATO and the outsized role that the U.S. has played in it for decades. Every one of those nations is looking at Russia right now and wondering "what happens next."

Same thing on the other side of the planet: both Japan and South Korea have very little military might; they depend on the deterrence the U.S. provides. They are looking at China and wondering what happens next.

If the U.S. reduces or removes these relationships, it will dramatically change these nations. Japan and China hate each other. If the U.S. draws back, Japan will complete its transition away from pacifism and will have nuclear weapons of its own in less than a decade. Same with South Korea.

Even if you think that the U.S. is not a leading light of democracy, these are real relationships and altering them has real consequences: more weapons and more tension among more nations in the world.
From the article, Glenn Beck says:

> "Yet, I still go to church, sometimes with a gun."

I don't know why but, that somehow chills me to the core. As a former religious person. I'm so glad I got out American Christianity. It feels insane.

The rest of the article is actually quite sane and rational. I can be wrong but, it reads as if Glenn Beck had a chance to see himself and calm down. He realizes that his rhetoric got him nowhere. Obama wasn't as bad as he had feared. Trump won't be as bad as people fear.

I find myself agreeing with Glenn Beck as we prepare for a Donald Trump presidency. What a time to be alive.

> the list monad is used to model non-determinism

See this is the kind of thing that made learning Haskell so hard for me. I'm not a math guy, I'm terrible at math. I have no idea what "non-determinism" means, and I'd venture to guess that list monad is used to model "ordered collections of things".
Have you found a workable way of doing that?

I manually whitelist in uMatrix, but it's pretty inconvenient and does not stop attacks coming from domains previously whitelisted/deemed safe.
You are being invited to look at "raw data" which is actually filtered, has important information retained for collateral and insurance, and decides when to release things for "maximum impact". To consider this alternative somehow a totally unbiased and impossible to refute thing just because it was founded in the internet era is absurd. It is run by human beings, it is not simply a "upload files here and instantly distribute them" tool. They have their own inherent bias and it is dangerous to consider receiving information that detailed and classified to assume that nobody else dealing in classified information has anything to hide. Obviously people will look bad if you get to snoop through all their trash, but the neighbour was the one who actually let you snoop in their trash, and they won't let you look in their trash either.

I'm inclined to believe modern civilian reactors are terrible at producing bomb worthy plutonium. Indeed, the main goals quickly became energy and safety.

However, this was probably not the case for the first reactors. If I recall my documentary properly "la face gâchée du nucléaire" (French and German only I'm afraid), the technology was initially chosen because it could produce plutonium. Therefore it got lots of research, and naturally ended up working best.

Submarines were of course responsible for much of the continued funding. Molten salt got cut off in no small part because the very idea of a nuclear plane was not very good.

That said, I'll need to study this subject more closely before I consider myself properly informed.

Well, I don't believe that was his intent, but someone who voted for Trump reading that email, who believes that white men are being persecuted, probably does. Leaving them scared, and entrenching them. It's a huge mistake to phrase it so carelessly as to allow that interpretation.
> that they didn't make him change it before they elected him

He changed it: http://www.wsj.com/articles/donald-trump-back-pedals-on-bann...

But its not as simple as "Banning all Muslims because they might be Terrorists". This is the headline the media liked to repeat again and again.

http://www.advocate.com/election/2016/8/15/donald-trump-want...

If you are gay, it is rationale to support a full ban on Muslims. Muslim countries have some terrible laws. I personally don't want anyone involved in an honour killing to set foot in the country. This is a real danger.

It is the height of irony that the liberals who protect Muslims so much, do not care what their views are on gays, or women. I don't get it and I would love someone to explain it to me.

There's even an app on the fdroid store called KeePassDroid but I've yet to make it work. I think the version on the store hasn't been recently updated.
That's not necessarily bad. The civil war, world war 2 and the cold war are pretty obvious examples. You can't solve problems by just throwing money at them, but having money to throw at problems makes a lot of those problems much easier.

I'm willing to revise my opinion of the guy. He's done two things i thought were impossible, winning the primary and the presidency. Maybe he will get that trillion dollar infrastructure program in place. I doubt it, but, at this point there's not much for me to do but wait and see.

We certainly had the opportunity to examine the inner workings of Hillary Clinton and the DNC.

We had no data whatsoever on Trump or the RNC. Beyond his barrage of lies, low-level offenses (paying fines with his nonprofit, bribing elected officials, all that), and alleged sexual assaults, that is. I think he did so many little bad things that the American People couldn't keep track of them, and voted for the interesting television personality.

It is unfair to assume that "no news is good news", but assume we did. The Clinton campaign lost the information war badly. (And apparently against state-sponsored adversaries!)

And what did we conclude from Hillary's emails? That she got paid by investment banks and accepted donations to her Foundation from foreign dignitaries that she interacted with while Secretary of State? While I don't think that influenced her decision-making, the appearance of impropriety is just as bad as actual impropriety, and so I can see why people were upset. But like I said, I trust her decision-making and voted for her anyway, because her positives vastly outweigh her negatives.

(The DNC is another issue altogether, but it's very simple why they didn't support Bernie. They're the DNC, not the "independent who suddenly claims to be a democrat" NC. The system of political parties sucks. But it's the system we set up and keep voting for. I don't think Bernie would have beaten Trump. College students can make some pretty good subreddits and Facebook posts, but they just aren't enough of the electorate. Clinton and Trump both have Very Powerful Friends, and you need them to be elected.)
That's a very modern trend. Even if they did 'ban' cats I really doubt anyone would look to eradicate them. We aren't going to see cops raiding people's houses to kill their pets. It will probably take the form of mandatory spay/neuter programs to wipe out the population over a period of several years. The feral cats will be trapped and similarly treated until there are only a very few that need to be actually killed.

I do wonder whether a place like NZ might then have a rat problem. Rats also do real damage to native species, including birds as they eat eggs. Removing a key rat predator inside cities might have repercussions.
Unfortunately, it does seem likely that "Make America Athens losing the Peloponnesian War (again)" is the policy objective.

If one wanted to look on the bright side, there's a chance that "I am a master businessman who can cut better deals" is a merely way to have something say about foreign policy without having to go to the effort of thinking about it.
