[EDIT:] You propose something impossible. The military-industrial complex was created, and is maintained, for the obscene revenue it generates for well-placed corporations. If there were no money in it, "unnamed Pentagon sources" wouldn't lie through the media that we're in some sort of danger from rural Arab wedding guests. It's a roundabout transfer from USA taxpayers and bondholders to armaments manufacturers, not a profitable enterprise in which individual citizens might plausibly take part.
True, but the electoral college contributes to the problem. In winner-takes-all states that are heavily for one party or the other, there is not much incentive to vote. Turnout would almost certainly be higher under a national popular vote.
If the threat model includes "the police come knocking" and "die in prison" then it's best to assume the phone can be traced back to the store and approximate time it was sold (potentially even the exact time and cash register), and surveillance videos will be searched.

I offer this as a general comment. Not taking sides on the issue highlighted by the post. I simply think it is important to point out this reality in case it is lost in all the nonsense this election has managed to produce.
> It feels a bit like the U.S. thinks the rest of the world isn't capable of looking after itself. And perhaps it isn't, and some boarders will be redrawn, but I get the feeling a lot of people are ready to give it a shot.

Well, this was the sentiment of most Americans after World War 1. It took the attack on Perl Harbor for Roosevelt to have enough support from congress to join WWII.

I think that after WWII the US government made part of its foreign policy to use economic integration and military might to prevent any country from ever dragging them into WWIII.

I am personally not worried about China, Russia, the middle east or even North Korea. But I would be seriously worried to see Japan rebuild their military because we pulled our bases out of there.

Trade deals are hard, I believe one of the reasons we have been so successful at finding private tax evaders was in the same trade deal that killed Detroit.

Can you elaborate on that? What killed Detroit wasn't a trade deal, except to the extent that we allowed Japan to sell autos here at all.

What killed Detroit was a self-administered one-two punch: incompetent executives and engineers who designed awful cars that nobody wanted to buy, and unions who ganged up on their employers to demand outrageous compensation for building those cars.
12 Amazing JQuery Tables
It is not surprising that a pro-thorium documentary includes the same misstatements about uranium fueled light water reactors that have spread in writing.

The very first reactors were indeed built for plutonium production. Those 1940s reactors built in Hanford, WA, USA used unenriched natural uranium for fissile material, used purified graphite as their neutron moderator, and did not generate any useful energy. In fact they were net energy consumers because they needed an external power source to move water through to keep them cooled.

13 years after the Hanford reactors started, Shippingport became the first civil power reactor in the US: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shippingport_Atomic_Power_Stat...

Shippingport literally started with a surplus naval reactor from a cancelled aircraft carrier project. It was a pressurized light water reactor requiring enriched fuel like most reactors now operating commercially. Everything about it was different from the early plutonium reactors: the fuel, the moderator, the heat exchange... by a funny coincidence, Shippingport was also the only commercial reactor in the US to use the thorium fuel cycle, from 1977 to 1982.

It actually sounds reasonable. From what I have read the largest H-1B companies are Infosys and Tata. I have worked with Infosys people and they are not paid well and the company is slow at applying for a green card. This is certainly not what H-1B was intended for. If they made it more difficult for these companies but maybe even easier for small companies that have found a foreign worker I am all for it.

I don't see any facts in that link that refute the metaphor. Old experiments at 0.2 °C per minute show the frog dying, while newer experiments at 1.1 °C per minute have the frog jumping to safety. It was already noted that the speed of the heating affected the result in 1888.

I'm aware of that - but if we have to look over 50 years in the past to try to back up the claim that "the left and right are equally bigotted", then we should really just admit that claim doesn't have a factual basis at the time it was made.

Isn't that what we practically have from rats? a "subset" of the human brain? I cringe every time I see on some tech/science news some headline: "this is the reason you do this, or you think that", and then reading the study, you find out it was conducted on rats...

If we are extrapolating results from rats to humans, why can't we just simulate a rat brain and avoid torturing more? Probably because rats are cheap, and supercomputers, well, are super expensive.

I don't think it would be difficult to simulate a fully functional rat brain with state-of-the-art technology and bright people.
Thank you.

Honestly, there is no way I would ever publicly say any of the things I have commented here for fear of retribution. Going anywhere near topics like racism, sexism, and xenophobia is outright scary in today's political landscape - especially in the tech world. Imagine living in a world where what you say could lose you friends, your reputation, your job, etc. The attacks on Thiel epitomise this. The US feels as polarised as ever.

I believe the silent Trump vote was very, very real. There is a huge response to the progressive movement that flies under the radar. All you have to do is venture into https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/ and watch Milo's college tour on YouTube and you will get a good sense of the silent Trump vote.
If you've played around with extensions, you should definitely consider making a paid one. The APIs you need to verify payment are pretty interesting.

All user who had the extension installed when I made the switch were able to keep it for free. This was a little tricky for users who had installed, then uninstalled it. For those ones I just told them to email me for the developer version.

You can't easily, but I did consider putting a lifetime version in the store as a separate extension.

A heart attack is different to a cardiac arrest, the later of which implies that circulation has stopped. There are many causes of arrest and it would be unusual for a woman of child bearing age to have an arrest as a result of a heart attack.

The training for emergency room doctors is for us to have the c section kit ready to go on arrival of the woman and be prepared to open the abdomen after the first cycle or compressions/resus - otherwise we have left it too long and the fetus is suffering. My point in illustrating this was only to show that It is interesting to consider how quickly you need to make an enormous decision.
US defence spending as share of GDP is in broad terms stable, and lower than the 50s and 60s, so the basis of saying the policy can't be maintained indefinately is unclear.

Of course, US spending could have been even lower still if we avoided using false pretences to engage in a pointless war of choice in Iraq, which, of course, had nothing to do with commitments to Europe or Japan.

> "OMG, Trump has won through lies and deception! We failed to stop him. How on Earth did that happen? We must out-manipulate our opponents next time."

This is a ridiculous oversimplification of a complex and important set of issues.

The issue is the spread of facts vs misinformation, not liberalism vs conservativism, nor Democrats vs Republicans, nor Trump vs anti-Trump. Facts can work on both sides, as can misinformation. It's kind of fucked up to assume facts somehow only go one way.

> Social networks fact-checking their content? What's next? Should AT&T stop the spread of misinformation over its phone lines? Should USPS fact-check your mail?

Well, gee... Let's think carefully. Are your private phone calls on AT&T a public discourse? Is your mail? Do either AT&T or USPS signal boost some of your discussions during public transmittal? Is your analogy even logical?

Facebook is a communication medium, as you said. Moreover, it has a set of rules and policies governing what can be shared, which shared content gets shown to a given user, and how the content is further propagated and boosted. The entire discussion, which your post is completely sidestepping, is what content should or shouldn't be propagated and boosted.

One can make arguments for more rules or fewer on this, for different rules or keeping the same rules. But asserting that it is a non-issue or drawing false equivalences are non-arguments irrelevant to the discussion at hand.

Proportional representation in the electoral college is equivalent to a national popular vote, and is no more or less conducive to party power than the status quo.

Proportional representation in the House of Representatives is possible without increasing party power (or even without parties at all) by using Single Transferable Vote.

Instant Runoff Voting (the single-winner variant of Single Transferable Vote) for presidential (and gubernatorial) elections would help to protect against excessive party power by allowing third party and non-party candidates a fair chance.
Do they hold the rights to recounting what happened play-by-play without using any images or media from the event? That seems more comparable here.
There's other reasons you might want fusion power: any place you need a large source of power, but siphoning off ambient energy (i.e. wind, solar) isn't feasible or sufficient, fusion is the way to go or else you have to use fission or fossil fuels.

This applies to things like ships and submarines, and to spacecraft.

So yeah, solar/etc. sounds great in an ideal scenario in a perfect world, but what if you're not on this world? Solar power isn't sufficient to do serious mining operations in the asteroid belt or to redirect a large asteroid threatening to impact the Earth. It also won't power your aircraft carrier or cruise ship. A clean source of nuclear power would be ideal for all these things, if we can figure out how to make such a thing work.

Because it's not the broadcast. This is comparable to newspapers not being allowed to report on goals in a soccer match or have any kind of live coverage (but still not showing the broadcast).
I do think it is a natural progression. Even China and NK can't be isolationists. And it isn't just because the US. There are a lot of advantages of working together. This is expansion through economic, as opposed to through territory.

To be an isolationist is significantly more difficult because you have to do everything yourself. The bigger you are territorial and population wise (note Russia's problem here), the easier it is. But if you are smaller you just don't have access to all the resources and labor that you need to advance. Unless your goal is to stagnate, but I don't think that is in our nature.

Actually the advantage of expansion through economics, as opposed to territory, is that you don't have to rule. Now there are trade agreements that are made, but those are much easier to renegotiate (brexit) than law of the land. Let them hash it out. Territorial expansion has the problem that your population becomes more diverse and a different set of cultures wants to abide by different laws. The purpose of territorial expansion is to gain more power and wealth. But it also generally leads to wars being waged. Now this happens with economics too, but not to the same degree. It is just much simpler to just trade.

There's a lot that goes into this and I'm not going to write a book in a HN post. But I do think that if another country was in power they would be doing the expansion, in place of America. That it is a natural progression if you look over a long period of history. Starting from just taking what we want to developing allies and trade routes. Globalization really is just a natural progression of what we've been doing for thousands of years.
Yeah. I want trying to be a jerk. Pedantic some, but I thought the difference between match and find was pretty general in regex land.
You mean 16 ms per frame?
I think your analogy is wrong. Many websites broadcast live "play-by-play" info on MLB, NFL, NBA, and NHL games. These are typically done, for example, by showing a graphic of a strike zone and where pitches are located as they are pitched. However, the actual game audio and video is not broadcasted. I don't believe you need any sort of license to display this information (correct me here if I'm wrong).

As far as I can tell, that's what's going on here: websites want to broadcast the "play-by-play" of the chess game, but not the actual game footage. Now, the play-by-play for a chess game is more important than the play-by-play for a hockey game, so I can see why the organizers of the chess tournament aren't happy, but I think the correct decision was made here.
They certainly claim to. The NFL loudly proclaims that "Any other use of this telecast or of any pictures, descriptions, or accounts of the game without the NFL's consent, is prohibited."
It's not cheaper for your employer. Your employer will typically cover some of the cost of health care then leave the rest for you to cover. When you leave a job, you have to pay both the premium you've been paying plus the premium your former employer had been paying. COBRA is not a free lunch. It just means you're allowed to order off of the same menu as your former employer.
60fps is 16ms per frame.

The main difference between this and other sports/events is the moves are facts. They wouldn't be able to broadcast a live video feed. But you can copyright facts.

>However a secret question like "who did you have a crush on back in 5th grade" is limited to maybe 10 people the world //

Who quite possibly can be established from either your Facebook or your friends' Facebook (eg you have your friends list set private but a friend who posts on your wall doesn't).

Taking the "I had a crush on 'snail-fridge-running-spectrum'" line reduces the number who know the answer to on average less than 1(!).
I'm not sure I'd agree, the moves of a Chess game aren't really analogous to a broadcast. They're a lot more like a box score a play by play summary of a sport which I think are both legal to share. A broadcast of a chess game would be the analog of the broadcast of a sporting event. Unfortunately people aren't really that interested in Chess broadcasts, they'd rather just see the moves.
In a Western market economy, we encourage the outcomes we want through regulation and policy. For example the High Tech industry is propped up in the US through fat government contracts for defense related companies (eg Palantir, Google), strategic venture funds (CIA's In-Q-Tel), government innovation efforts that are given away (Darpa, Arpanet), government funding to universities to teach certain course or research certain fields. Since farming, manufacturing, infrastructure and energy could also be supported in this way, we should give them the same love that Silicon Valley gets from the Government. Particularly because they would help the other half of America get back to work. Above all we should not be imposing regulations to force these industries out of business.

Yep, I was at K10 the entire time. Was just opening when I was there. Very beautiful space and nice folks.
Over the past few days I've been hearing much about the liberal elite, but I think most are disregarding that at least half of the wealthiest Americans are conservative. Many of these conservatives don't believe in what you stated.

That said, Trump's candidacy was not enthusiastically received by most of the wealthy conservatives. Carl Icahn and Peter Thiel are the only billionaires that I can think of that supported Trump. Charles & David Koch didn't endorse or fund his campaign or use their political entities to support him.

So your point remains and is good. I wanted to remind the HN audience that the elite is comprised of conservatives too, and they disagree with the liberal elite about much.
Vendor lock-in is very much a spectrum -- in my case, it's the same amount of work to move my Python lambdas to a self-hosted server now as it would have been when I first decided to use AWS Lambda. The only overhead was figuring out the Amazon documentation, which was a pretty trivial one-time deal.
I have a feeling that if they ever tried to prosecute the accounts part of warning they would lose miserable. Imagine them trying to argue that a person describing a game they'd seen to a friend required their consent. Maybe it would fly, IANAL, but that seems insane to me.

Some C++ compilers support "fast path" devirtualization via profiling feedback:

http://hubicka.blogspot.com/2014/04/devirtualization-in-c-pa...

As you suggest, it's a little misleading to talk about the runtime cost of a virtual or indirect function call in isolation. The most significant cost is often the resulting inability of the compiler to inline and perform further optimizations across the caller and callee.
