My question was really who does this extension help. This sort of extension would be useful only for people who are unlikely to install it, because anyone who is aware of the phenomenon of entirely fabricated news stories can probably spot them easily. This extension seems to be aimed only at people who wouldn't know to install it in the first place or people who wouldn't want it because they enjoy the fake news for whatever reason.
I don't say it's a problem, I'm was actually making an argument that fixing modern equipment isn't easy, and you need considerably more things than just a cheap soldering station with a hot air gun.
I was two years studying EE before I quit and transfer to CS program. I do bot regret it at all, but man am i grateful for hard math course and electromagnetics on EE. It was pretty painful, in terms of working hours and doing homeworks, but since then my brain just worked in terms of 2D/3D vision of geometry and space coordination in my head. Differential calculus, linear algebra, everything was piece of cake when I got to CS.
Well, AWS has only billing and account related support for free. Any other support is, of course, paid. And it'd be best to avoid commenting on their free support.

I don't think that should be a concern as both providers in theory can block or suspend your account. Maybe use a separate account for Google cloud for running world-changing-billion-user app.
Octave is more or less BLAS-agnostic. You can build it with any BLAS, including MKL and people do this (but because MKL is too restrictive, you can't redistribute the result). While you may see speedups this way, if your code isn't vectorised, as most code out there is not, you still will see big slowdowns.

I would prefer to send my kids to public schools and universities.

I would far prefer single-payer health care or state-run health care to the current American system.

Mind you, I don't want to shut down private universities or health care providers for anyone who wants to pay for them.

I do want education and access to medical care to be universally available to all people (not just citizens, but people) in this country, and having a state-run system for those makes sense.

Consumer goods, I don't think there needs to be a government producer of those in general, unless the markets have somehow failed to make some necessities of life available to people.
If Photoshop was Maya, Blender would be much better than GIMP.

IMO Blender is still worse than Maya (but not by that much), although Maya is also substantially worse than Photoshop -- to make a bit of an apples to oranges comparison.

This is a great question. Common sense wise to me it's an issue. And given how large a company google is I don't think it even matters what the google cloud people who might respond say. It makes sense to simply isolate things like this.
>That said Obama is now working with trump to transition govt and taking a much more active role in it due to trumps team being under prepared

Where are you getting this information? Trump's team has not spoken with the mainstream media at all since winning the election. Anything that has come out is a direct statement, otherwise it is just complete here-say.

And how is Obama taking a "much more active role" by running off to Germany? It's very clear that Trumps rhetoric has sent Merkel into a panic, and her own comments towards Trump have been less than diplomatic.

At least try to hide the fact that you are a Hill shill.

IMHO, if we will know better the physics of quantum and relativistic effects, we will be able to model them at macro level, so it will be much easier to understand and study these effects.

Mathematics will not change, calculation results will not change, but understanding of processes will rise significantly, which may lead to new advances in physics.
It is more than good enough for me.
True, but if you DO hit that magic growth factor, it'll probably be too late to make a change of such magnitude. Better to get optimization experimentation out of the way (relatively) early.
This doesn't make much sense, when very rich people (like Steve Jobs) get diseases and die. If there was a cure, at some point one of these ultra rich individuals would receive "the hidden cure" or have an overt relationship with a medical center leading to recovery. Being able to cure a disease, is generally more profitable for a generation (or more) as it's THE goto product and people are irresponsible enough that there's always new communication vectors.
I'll toss my personal experiences in as well: we pay Google for support at the 'Gold' level[0] and we've been satisfied with the support they've provided. We've only had a few issues but they've gotten back to us quickly and it's been easy to access their technical staff.

I also have never understood the argument “In dynamic typed language X you can just start prototyping, but in static typed language Y you have to fight the type system just to get it to compile”
If your types aren’t lined up but it compiles, even in a dynamic typed language, you’re program won’t behave as expected, i.e. you are likely to have a bug.
e.g. object + int, and it compiles.
How does one really save time by not worrying about these things? I almost always start coding from the core data structures up, even when prototyping. A seemingly opposite approach as OPs post, not saying my method is THE correct method :)

Had the same idea while reading this post. It tries to prove that "all myths are rooted in truth", is wrong because asian american succeded, not because they worked better, but because they benefitted from better popularity.

My interpretation is : asian worked harder (as a group) it was noticed and it improved their reputation. Thanks to this, they got better wages.
Generally speaking, the number of servers has very little to do with complexity of migration or existential threat from downtime, relative to company size.

I'd imaging carbon nanotubes will also holdup better to electron-migration than silicon? I love how technology pushes the limits of physics.

It seems like ages ago that we thought we reached the limits of mechanical hard-drive capacity (where the magnetic heads would flip neighbouring bits). Then the perpendicular storage literally created another dimension from nowhere!

For those devs who need to convince senior management and big clients “managed by a partner“ does not cut it. They want to hear a reliable name like Amazon or Google. A small unfamiliar brand doesn't give them confidence on reliability front. Many of these people have paid to MS and Oracle just for this purpose. For example on Google's G Suite FAQ there is a big document which details out the elaborate measures Google takes on security front and about no unauthorized access to data. It's unlikely that a smaller third party partner will have same diligence as that of Google or Amazon.

I do not remember to have read about Google equivalent of EFS yet. This can make it relatively easy to migrate legacy apps to cloud.

And as the other comment says above, familiarity. We have around 20 programmers at our company who are comfortable managing deployments on AWS. We had to spend a lot of time and money on their training. Google hasn't given the 10x reason for us to switch.
Soon people will either adapt and end up following the law, or they will be unable to pay for insurance, because of the amount of claims that they're taking out against it.

I generally not a fan of social darwinism, but in this specific case, I think that something of the sort will have a positive effect. How many people have been injured because the car they were hit by was being forced to go faster, because of tailgaiting?
What's the point in introducing another syntactical feature to HTML (the markup language) when you need Javascript for it anyway? When you're already using Javascript, custom elements don't add any essential functionality.

Their inclusion as a feature into HTML feels like a not-so-well thought-out decision from a language design PoV.
We use many services on AWS (S3, ELB, RDS, RedShift...). The costs of the EC2 instances is > 70% of the total bill. It's in the same order for the other deployments I've seen.

The thing is, the AWS pricing strategy is global and most services are built on top of instances.
Law itself has very little power without change in social norm. Look into Foucault's modern philosophy of power.

Truly mind boggling achievement.
In the world of Numpy and Scipy, this is obsolete tech.
Why do you call it inefficient? If one side was suppressing their papers because they were just slightly beat to the press, I would be worried. As it is, I'd be more worried about breaking a system that is working for the sake of efficiency than I am for any losses from the system.

I think more directly stated, do you think we could get better results somehow? What would those look like?
It also is a completely tone-deaf and robotic way to get to know someone. It sounds like "I'm busy and taking the time to get to know you is inefficient, so just upload all information about yourself directly into my brain so that I know how to take advantage of all your strengths and weaknesses, and in return I will give you nothing."
I dont think wanting to have the option to repair something deserves such ridicule, from my experience working in fridges, washing machines etc back in the early 2000s one of the biggest complaints was it was uneconomical to repair these items anymore. Im not sure why as a society we have moved so far into the mentality of replace over repair.
Is it doing a weird maneuver on 1:32 or is it just me? Something like stopping right after turning. I'm not full aware of the USA transit laws so this might be required but it doesn't seem likely.
I can do one better; the source code itself, which has been scanned (https://github.com/chrislgarry/Apollo-11), lists Margaret Hamilton as "COLOSSUS programming leader" - COLOSSUS being the command module software - as of March 28, 1969, reporting to Dan Lickly - Director of Mission Program Development, i.e. in charge of software development at this point, and Richard Battin - Director of Mission Development, who was basically the technical lead of the AGC project at that point. There are also some other senior scientists on the approver list, but those two are the senior software leaders. So Margaret Hamilton was not in charge of the software development team as of March 1969 (she was still in charge of the COLOSSUS module), and in fact not until Dan Lickly left the project, which I think happened around the Apollo 11 flight.

It should be needless to point out that the AGC software was complete and frozen at this point, although bug fixes and some minor features made it in.

This doesn't stop misinformation from appearing all over the place, e.g. Wikipedia says "Details of these programs [LUMINARY and COLOSSUS] were implemented by a team under the direction of Margaret Hamilton", but this is false, as we've seen - LUMINARY, the moon landing software, was frozen while Hamilton was still on the COLOSSUS project. Also, if you root around the history of COLOSSUS itself - which I did at some point - you'll see that Margaret Hamilton became its programming leader in 1968, after COLOSSUS was complete.
That doesn't mean it would make the jump again, it took quite a while for SIV to jump to humans becoming HIV.

The Vela Incident
Ask HN: What is a good alternative to Facebook News Feed?
I give my Facebook feed sporadic attention at best, but some of my friends have been asking me "so if I wanna get off of Facebook news, what's a good alternative?"

Besides HN, I curate a lot of my news through RSS subscriptions, but that's not a mainstream way to consume news and isn't always very user friendly either.

As far as curated news aggregators go, I'm not very knowledgeable. The only one I can tentatively recommend is Blendle -- if for no other reason than the fact that they're trying to popularise a brand new business model for journalism, and that's an experiment I'll happily invest some $$ in.

But what else is out there as far as good replacements for Facebook news go?
And it's amazing. Over 99% uptime for 1/4 the price.
I haven't used maple for many years, but unless something's changed it's not in the same domain as matlab/octave/numpy.
Fair point, but you're pointing people to a realm of hypothesis space that has been edited out of their brains.
I suspect that the "them and us" mentality of our inner chimp is binary not n-ary so if society is really anti-black our minds cannot easily handle also being anti-"something else". So Asians simply became "honouray white" in order to make room for racism elsewhere.

It's something similar to the waves of immigrants hitting Londons docklands for generations - each wave suffers then moves outwards to the suburbs and the newest wave becomes the focus of ire.

Just a thought - depressingly maybe we always need a "them"
They never claimed such a thing, only that a specific race had to be chosen for the experiment to have a comparison. Also, really funny how you tell people to stop taking offense at words while simultaneously doing that exactly. By your own logic, why would you get offended if someone said only white men could be racist? They're only words after all.

While this is a true 80th level hipsterism and snowflackery, it is also a beautiful case to realize that there was reasons behind choosing Common Lisp as the primary language for AI.

The Common Lisp code is almost as easy to read as the pseudocode of the book and it is absolutely unnecessary to go through all that type clutter and fancy compositions to satisfy the type-checker. There is zero advantage in doing all this static typing acrobatics.

The AIMA supplementary Common Lisp code is definitely worth looking and it is the case study for demonstrating the advantages of dynamic typing.

BTW, AIMA python code is also very nice, short and clear but order of magnitude slower compared to the compiled native code state-of-the-art implementations of Common Lisp produce.

BBTW, Swift3 port would be really cool.

So why is it? The article didn't really answer the question, for all its meandering through history.

Does anyone know of a good and concise summary of the main points of Stoicism?
This is some really dubious logic and it's terrible that this should be considered valid research.

To exclude the fact that some groups work harder, have completely different attitudes towards self preservation, who might have skills passed down from generation to generation, who might actually be more intelligent (contentious, I know, but it could be true).

It's ridiculous.

I grew up with a lot of Asian kids, and enough Black kids, and they were definitely different ethnic groups, in so many ways. It's crazy to think that 'only societies attitudes towards them' made the difference.
It seems that the Civil Rights Movement was the worst thing that could happen to American Blacks.

The article mentions a pay gap, and there is a pay gap problem, but how much of it can be attributed to advanced degrees in useless subjects like Ethnic Studies from bottom-tier schools? While Asians tend to go for Science or Engineering from top-tier schools.

There certainly does appear to be a white supremacist fixation on black people. I was thinking the other day how odd it is that "white supremacists" (in America ) seem to spend a majority of their time talking about blacks when Asians are on average performing better in every metric. Life expectancy, earnings, education. I thought white supremacists would see Asian American success as a threat to their ideology (that whites are genetically superior and should be performing better than all races).

I only asked this question once on a YouTube race thread to self proclaimed white supremacists, and the response I got was that Asians don't commit crime or cause trouble so it's alright if they're performing better.

Which makes me believe a more accurate term for most white supremacists (in America at least) would be "anti-black".
Given that this virus has already made the species shift four times that we know of, "halting all transmission" is sort of a strange concept.
The combination of Custom Elements and Shadow DOM allow you to create a separate, semantic representation of your markup that you can script against, while encapsulating the actual markup required for presentation.

E.g., imagine you wanted to select all the images in a carousel. Without Shadow DOM, something like document.querySelectorAll('.carousel img') might pick up images being used as implementation details, like left/right button images, in addition to the carousel images themselves. With Custom Elements and Shadow DOM, your markup could contain only the content you intend to represent, and document.querySelectorAll('.carousel img') would return just the images being shown in the carousel.

Of course, like image carousels, whether or not this is a good idea is subjective. But it does give you additional functionality. Hopefully we'll learn how to use it responsibly.

? Or maybe it was just that

> Asians [were] being hard workers who kept their heads down, cherished education and didn’t complain.

I'll go further than another top-level comment and say that embracing the first sentence unironically is being intentionally obtuse, given that one literally has to write the second sentence to get there.

But it's the unsurprising consequence of a worldview that "hard work never gets anyone anywhere". Note that you don't have to reject the idea of privilege entirely in order to acknowledge that hard work is also a path to success; and this article goes to show that hard work and success is also a path to privilege, not [just] the other way around.
