I think the main reason is that we can't physically interact with it with our hands. We don't play with it as children, the same way we do running water, throwing rocks, etc. Anything that you can't manipulate or play around with is very hard to develop an intuitive sense of. It takes a lot of study and imagination.

I feel inclined to think that there's a huge difference between not feeling an emotion (which I would argue is impossible) and not being consciously aware of the feeling (which i would say is what this article is calling 'not feeling')
An awful lot of people living in flats/apartments in older buildings in European cities are going to have similar problems. I'd like to try an EV or plug-in hybrid but the practicalities of living in central Edinburgh pretty much make it impossible.
> If you purchase something from a location based ad, the advertiser is going to have your billing and shipping information, so that's just splitting hairs at this point.

Emphasis is on "recent searches", not on the location.

> They can can only target by keywords, so your theory of leaky data doesn't apply there either

Yes, you are more right here (and here only). If ads are only shown when you are actively searching for their keywords, then whether there is a leak is questionable. But an advertiser could still trick one to reveal information, like in a phishing attack, by using keywords unrelated to the ad.

> That's also the second time you've moved the goal posts as you've learned more about how online advertising works.

Thanks for educating me, but my argument still stands. In fact that second time, I placed the goal post back at its original place, since apparently, Google's ad controls do not allow one to turn off ads based on recent searches.

You can see the influence of YouTube most on channels that used to show cheap, often educational content. There's a reason discovery, food network, and the history channel are dominated by reality T.V. these days. Why watch watch my favorite chef for half an hour each week when I can just look up the exact recipe on YouTube? Why wade through all the WWII documentaries on the history channel when I can watch good content about any period of history whenever I want on YouTube?
Scaphold, along with Reindex, are pretty interesting. Don't know a lot about graphql, but it looks like they're both positioning to be firebase competitors. Both would have the distinct advantage (for the user, disadvantage for them) of using regular graphql queries in an app, meaning a project could easily migrate from one graphQL backend to another (whereas Firebase would require significant refactoring).
Yes. Just because the app is hosted on a google domain tells us nothing about who developed it, what their intent might be, what data it might be gathering as/when you log in,...

It's basically a black box, and any suggestion that it ought to be trusted "because Google" is naive in the extreme.

I love programming and am also part of a start-up developing a cutting-edge computer vision tech.

I have learnt a lot of concepts by learning programming that can be applied to many real world problems as well.

I desperately want to work in Renewable energy sector like Solar, Wind.

And the best part, my idol, Elon Musky Musk has applied the concepts that we programmers deal with in day-to-day life to producing machines that produce machines that are currently some of the best solutions to the problems like Global Warming, Energy storage & Electric cars manufacturing etc.

This part really gives me kicks. Even though, I think about leaving programming may be in 10 years(I'm currently 24), but the concepts I learnt are going to come in super-handy what ever Engineering things I'd like to do.
Surprised you didn't try C++ if you found C quite difficult. C++ teaches memory management but without the insanity level dialed to 11 like with C (or more so with Assembly).

I've always discouraged learning Python first. Python disconnects you so much from what is really going on and does so much for you that you don't develop algorithm and conceptual skills and computer knowledge.

All the developers where I'm at, from SQL to Python, Node to Angular, everyone, all say the same thing about Python and other "hyper-package-assisted" languages.
Where are you from, and how do you breed such high horses?
Writing, honestly. I get absorbed into stringing words into entire worlds, complete with flowery descriptions and characters of my choosing. I find that I can write anywhere, be it on laptop or paper, so it affords me more movement than programming.

It's not that I want something more creative than programming, I consider programming to be equal parts art and skill. I want something more flexible, not tied to a company that requires me to work in ways that I don't find productive (looking at you stand ups). However, for now I'll be following the money and writing on the side, although it does get draining to split most of my day's effort into two creative professions.
Mainly because of price. When Model 3 arrives it will probably sell 4x as many in Europe, both because it will be a bit cheaper, but also because it will be a much better car.
Quite often! But it pays well and my co-workers aren't terrible. Most efficient way to have job security and make a good bit of $.

Id always be inventing -something- though, recently I got into designing and building high voltage distortion prone vacuum tube hybrid solid-state instrument signal drivers: aka guitar amplifiers :) analog electronics is a lost art!

>nothing can now be believed which is seen in a newspaper. truth itself becomes suspicious by being put into that polluted vehicle... I really look with commiseration over the great body of my fellow citizens, who, reading newspapers, live & die in the belief that they have known something of what has been passing in the world in their time... general facts may indeed be collected from them, such as that Europe is now at war, that Bonaparte has been a successful warrior, that he has subjected a great portion of Europe to his will &c &c. but no details can be relied on. I will add that the man who never looks into a newspaper is better informed than he who reads them; inasmuch as he who knows nothing is nearer to truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods & errors. he who reads nothing will still learn the great facts, and the details are all false.

Those curricula exist.

They're called university course offerings.

Just look up a class you want to take, figure out what the prerequisites are (often listed in the course description or syllabus), and follow the chain of prerequisites until you hit a level that's appropriate.

You can easily look do this with a few different universities and just compare their courses for a particular subject, find the most common textbooks, etc.

And nowadays, this is even easier since you can find a MOOC or online course for basically any course in the DAG leading to nontrivial machine learning.

(Programming languages should never be a factor, unless you're choosing between two otherwise equivalent offerings.)
It has origin in 4chan, like a lot of memes, and is at least as insulting to its user as to its object - being in essence an insult directed at functional adults by caricatures of NEETs, the humor coming from the fact that the latter really aren't in a position to look down on the former.

Of course, as with any hot meme, it gets a semantic makeover in the course of widening adoption, but if you're looking for an answer to the question of whether someone who uses "normie" unironically, especially in a context outside Reddit or a *chan, merits taking seriously...well, at the very least, I think it's reasonable to interpret that at least as a strong clue that the user isn't in the habit of thoroughly considering his utterances before emitting them.
My "road out" was having kids and taking on a lot of responsibility (both family and business). It's worked for 7 years now and I've never felt happier and mentally healthy, even if I am super busy and under a lot of pressure :-) I never thought I'd be the sort of person to thrive on pressure but it turns out I am.
If the question states "to render the page" then it's very likely the answer is about blocking versus non-blocking calls. Images don't block the browser's renderer because they're loaded asynchronously, so the answer is 1. As soon as the browser has fetched the HTML and parsed the header for blocking scripts and CSS it'll build the DOM and render it. The images will be requested during that time, but they won't stop the rendering from happening. The browser will rerender the page as soon as the images load (or sooner if they're progressive JPEGs). The same is true of favicon.ico. That's loaded in the background after the first render.

(I think that's all still true. Browsers move fast.)

Except that the whole promise of XML and DTD is that you can have validated serialization of your objects. If the network is switched to an attribute name with a string value, it can no longer be validated that you've chosen a valid network, unless you use an enumeration (in which case you've still changed the DTD).
I think about this a lot. I truly enjoy coding, it's definitely a fun activity. What I don't enjoy the most is the belief that your work experience is secondary. If you can't pass a coding interview, you don't have an active Github account, and you don't blog regularly, some companies won't take a second look at you, even if you have a proven record of success.
I personally admire what jwz did, turning his technically skills into something that supported a venue he really enjoys (DNAPizza and DNALounge).
> it's freefall in a gravity well

Bit of a nitpick, but this is true of any object in "space", at least on sub-galactic scales. If it wasn't in freefall around Earth, it would be in freefall around the Sun, and if not that, the Milky Way.

You are correct about the magnetic field and magnetosphere however.
That's a terrible argument considering Hyper gives you no fine-grained control over instance types. You just get a linearly-increasing allocation of CPU cores and RAM.

Yep, Sketchup is excellent for planning out woodworking. It lets you figure out how everything will fit together in 3d space, and then you can just measure all your cuts in your finished design.

To be honest I didn't even notice the Adidas logo. shrug Apparently that product isn't "for" me. Ha.

Except the economy is becoming more globalized and many people's jobs have them working at odd times anyway. I used to work 4pm-1am EST and so my schedule aligned more closely with people in hawaii and australia so I ended up befriending people in those locations on the internet since they were awake when I was.

I think this will be a more and more common thing as more of our lives ends up online. It won't matter when the sun shines so much as what is normal to the individual.
Hype aside, it's still pretty useful and also pretty different from mobile development.
It's changing, cars are quickly turning into digital appliances and moreover there is a huge push to "connected services", meaning huge amount of real-time data and ML. I have seen slightly above average engineers landing senior architect roles there just by being close to Big Data/ML, in Germany of course.

One of the reasons that HN comment threads are still mostly worthwhile when other sites and comment services are swamp fires is the community that has been built here.

That people have to come here to read and reply helps us form that community and our social norms.

Tesla needs to push for EV only, they need to disrupt, otherwise nobody would even take notice. Keep in mind that they still have to prove real profitability.

Meanwhile the german built very economic high tech cars, ever sat in a new Audi with their Virtual Cockpit ? Teslas interiors with the monstrous LCD look and feel like toys in contrast, it's not even close.

Modern diesel and petrol engines are super efficient and quiet, the infrastructure is everywhere, there is just no case for an EV only reality right now, it does not exist. Yet, they are working on EVs, trying different things and you can bet they will be ready when they have to.

I love Tesla and Musks Masterplan, but i also realise that he is a marketing and PR genius and it remains to be seen where Teslas will end up in the next 10 years. Realistically you should worry about Teslas future in the next 10 years as opposed to VW/Merc/Bmw.
Why? Has Google ever done anything with their cloud services that cause you to distrust them?
Yup, last I checked you can create GKE clusters as small as 1 node.
I started off as a software engineer for 2 years but began to explore the business side of things. I moved into designing/building systems for business analysis (i.e. data warehousing, reporting, analytics, etc.), did strategy consulting for insurance and financial services as well as studied for my MBA. I'm now in charge of leading the analytics initiatives for our credit card business.

I'm still in touch with my programming side through my side projects but the experience I gained through my software development years have been extremely helpful both in dealing with business & technical audiences as well as in solving problems logically.

The main point is that the programming skills you've learned can be useful in another setting. Starting off as a programmer doesn't mean that you will have to do it for the rest of your life. You have many different choices and it's up to you to shape your career the way you want it.
You have a good point, but still, it's easier to explain to children stuff that makes sense.

I teach my children that we live in a sea of energy and that you can feel it when you move. It makes much more sense to them than trying explain inertia.

I tell them that of you rotate something, it will make an energy vortex making stuff seem heavier - and I show them with a gyroscope.

Then I explain that electrons are just like little gyroscopes, but of only energy. And it all makes sense to them. They don't think it's hard at all.
At least where I am from it is very strange for people to talk or write about what they earn. No one would tell you even if you would ask usually. Not that anyone would ask. But yes, have made that and know plenty of seniors that do. They would not boast about it though while, but that is the HN echo chamber maybe, everyone in the US spends solid amounts of time talking and worrying about it?

If you are willing to teach and relocate a few years there are international schools which pay 80k - $90k (Asia, Middle East, certain rich islands). Don't underestimate how demanding it is though. I've done both and coding is a breeze compared to teaching.
But the only ship that can carry it is the Zumwalt, there are only three of them (so the price per gun or round will be enormous), they have very little capability against air targets (because this was deleted from the Zumwalt in a previous cost-saving measure).

So a rail gun on the Zumwalt would basically do the same thing as the AGS. It would maybe have longer range, depending on how many megajoules they can make the gun output, this is still an open problem. And the magazine would have space for twice as many rounds, since they don't need to store the propellant. Given that the Navy apparently just decided that they don't even want the AGS, I don't think they care at all about the capabilities they'd get by installing railguns on the Zumwalts.

They may still install it as basically a pure research project, but if money is tight...
The GPL, fundamentally, is about giving permission where copyright law would otherwise make illegal. It's about specifying things you can do with the code, ensuring that the original author can not sue over copyright when the copyrighted work is used within the scope of the license. Some people see freedom in this, while other people see restriction because they want more than what the license gives.

If you release your code under the GPL license, no one is 'restricting' usage of the code. That's a misrepresentation of reality. The area outside the license, which include adding legal restrictions, are as if there were no license and is enforced solely by copyright.

Anyone else who wants to do something with that code is still able. Nothing is taken away from the rest of the world by limiting what legal restrictions may be added to the software license, whether you want to add such restrictions or not.
I am sort of a Tesla fanboy but you're clearly living in the bubble. I am rooting for Tesla because I like electric driving, but the hype is far removed from reality.

The car industry is not sitting still, like Nokia. They are gradually preparing for the EV revolution. Just like Tesla is preparing for mass production.

> They also have the nerve to attack them in their own backyard where they can take advantage of German suppliers etc. What will be next? A Gigafactory in Europe?

Maybe. They allready have a factory next door from Germany, in The Netherlands, just like the German manufaturers have factories in the US.

Tesla is just going after the talent they couldn't find in the US. Nothing wrong with that. If BMW acquired a manufacturing specialist, noone would notice. But for Tesla it's still special.

> Both are still concept cars but they represent what they expect their EVs should look like.

No, they are concept cars. Concept cars have always looked a little ridiculous. Yes, the production i3 looks quite ridiculous in my opinion, but BMW never meant to sell them in any meaningful quantities. It's an experiment that sells better than expected.

BMW have also announced fully electric mini's and X3's. They will be a little later to the game when compared to Tesla. But this is historically not a winner takes all market.

> And the Tesla cars will have been trained with tens of billions of miles of self driving by then.

We all don't know how this market is going to develop (legally and technically) and which companies will be cooperating / sharing data. There are still a lot of ways to catch up. Maybe new technology comes along that will slash the amount of required training data, obliterating Tesla's advantage. We don't know.

> How are the Germans going to catch up?

They have the knowledge and infrastructure to scale up manufacturing across a broad line of models. They also have loyal customers who trust their brands. In a lot of markets, VW's cars were still selling even during / after the software debacle.

The Biggest Voter Suppression Campaign of All
Reminds me of a neuroscience article of Berridge where he talks about emotions that we're not conscious of. I did some digging and found of articles of Berridge. It seems that he mainly worked with another researcher who knows more about this: Piotr Winkielman.

Berridge wrote a lot about unconscious liking and unconscious wanting. He showed that in rats there are different neural areas being activated. There is a wanting pathway and there are liking hotspots ('islands' close or on the wanting pathway).

I think more than half the time I spent earning my EE degree has been spent unlearning the intuitive (but wrong) things that I was liberally taught. I was fortunate enough to have an exceptional Physics teacher in high school, who managed to avoid a lot of the bullshit that less fortunate students were fed; sadly, I compensated that with some of my own (misguided) self-study.

This experience also taught me to actively mistrust "intuition" and "common sense". Not that there isn't value in intuition (quite the contrary, it's priceless, from design to maintenance), but it's only useful when it rests on a solid theoretical foundation. Prior to earning that foundation, it's nothing but a (very bad) shortcut that people take because they want to feel knowledgeable, but don't want to invest the effort of going through all that math mumbo jumbo.
Hm. Children can learn the right terminology for things. Those words don't seem any easier to swallow than 'inertia' and 'charge' to me.
