Atlas works for folks in the US as well, but we don't support LLCs yet. You can register an LLC by yourself with the state of Nevada or Wyoming for a trivial amount of money. There exist hundreds of companies which will assist with form preparation (of which LegalZoom is probably best) but both states now have a web app which produces an adequate cookie cutter LLC for software professionals with very simple needs.

Nevada is more convenient and modestly more expensive IIRC; Wyoming is more privacy-conscious. I own 2 Nevada LLCs; as a consequence of this, my address is trivially available on the Internet. If that gives you pause, Wyoming a good option.
The problem is when it criticizes you for criticism. I for one would be happy to know that the other side of every point is properly represented.

A scary one is climate change, it is now no longer palatable to question whether it is happening. So we don't hear the other side, instead the echo chamber has destroyed the scientific process.

I'm not saying scientists don't work on it productively (and I'm not denying climate change), I'm just pointing out that we can no longer have science work on the conservative view.
Here are a bunch from QuickSprout. I dont know how updated some are but QuickSprout itself also has guides for SEO as well.

It's being advertised as magic wand by the govt asking common man to endure 50 days of not necessary hardships. This measure only helps govt, it won't have any significant dent on real 80% wealth hoarders who are going to get access to hard earned money through banks and if govt gets more tax then in the form of contracts awarded to them. The proof is already there in the form adani and reliance group gettting major contracts.

This is a move to snatch money from common man and hand it over to rich class is a master stroke.

The point is that "approval" voting and "score" (aka "range", aka "rating") voting are not fundamentally different systems. Approval voting is just score voting where the voter is restricted to giving each candidate a score of either 0 or 1.

Similarly, "relaxed rank" voting is also just a restricted version of score voting. You might argue that a paper version of the "relaxed rank" voting ballot wouldn't be as clear or intuitive to the average voter as an approval or score ballot would be. And I wouldn't necessarily dispute that.

What I'm saying is that instead of forcing every voter to learn and embrace a new ballot, you can let them vote as they always have and, optionally, allow them to "refine" or "supplement" their ballot by additionally filling out an approval ballot along with their traditional one. (If the approval ballot contradicts the original one it is discarded/ignored.) If the voter has chosen to fill out an approval ballot, they can subsequently further refine their ballot by filling out a score ballot.

I'm just pointing this out because it may be an option that is more acceptable to more people. In fact, you could add these optional "refining" ballots to existing elections with the understanding that they will have no effect on the election, but allow people to see how the election would have turned out had the "refining" ballots been counted. (Like, maybe John Kasich would have been president or something.)

If you go to the link I posted, you can login anonymously and try out these "progressive ballots" for yourself. If you register (no personal info required or anything), you can create your own polls if you want to experiment further. (Note that this is not a real site or anything. Don't rely on it, and don't use it for anything serious. Not yet anyway.)
Great job on the project! I had this exact same idea about a week ago and put it on my Trello.

Equality is an often overlooked complexity in denotational semantics. Dijkstra wrote an EWD [1] on the subject, which should give insight into the difficulties of this presumably simple relation.

In most languages, I prefer to think of equality as a property outside of structure or class. Languages such as Java bind equals() strongly with the object, but this is a mistake. First of all, it promotes ordering where there is none. Equality is reflexive and symmetric. Second of all, it does not allow for multiple forms of equality. Lastly, since it is defined in Object, it forces the equality relation to all underlying types, even when there is no equality defined.

GP's point was that when Apple forces accessory makers to come to them for a license, they can arbitrarily chose to deny a license according to their whim. Apple (like many other companies, to be fair) uses product announcements as a way to force a positive press coverage bubble during product launches since only people who generally write nice things about them are given the products to review. It would be easy to see how Apple will 'delay' licensing of companies that don't play ball and produce accessories compatible with the new phones.

>What possible conceivable benefit could there be for them to sneakily try and add it back now?

They have always been pro DRM. For e.g. They force you to be on a constant iOS update treadmill, where they have made it impossible to downgrade iOS, and almost impossible to avoid updating it with the constantly popups to update.

> Generally it's called a republic if there is representative government

No, if there's an elected representative government, it's generally a representative democracy. Even when (as in the case of the UK) it's also a Constitutional monarchy, and so not a republic of any kind.
Unless they specify otherwise I assume this policy will only apply to actual phenomena.
The goal is to create a prioritized list so that citizens can work together toward those policies initiatives in a concerted, coordinated way regardless of party affiliation. It doesn't have to be an echo chamber if others have substantive ideas. And it is just an experiment.
Tactile feedback isn't a compelling argument against touchscreens on laptops and desktops?

The touch interface on my phone and tablet compromises some of the usability of the input to gain a ton of flexibility and portability. Laptops compromise some comfort and size to make it feasible to stick a keyboard and pointer device into a thin, portable computer.

The various compromises are worth it in some situations and very out-of-place in others. I don't really see the point of a touch interface for general desktop/laptop use.
The president's job is enforcing all of the laws set by the legislative branch and he needs to know where his authority begins and ends.
"The spoiler effect" generally means that if you vote for your preferred candidate, it can backfire and give you the least-preferred. Approval can't do that. In approval voting, it never, ever hurts to vote for your favorite candidate.

It's true that voting for other candidates you approve of could take the election away from your favorite, but that's not what people usually mean with spoiler effect. As long as you do approve of the winning candidate, your vote isn't spoiled. In Approval Voting, there's no context where any form of voting, strategic or honest, will have you worrying that your vote helps someone you don't approve of.
You don't need to count them all in the same place. You could conduct each round of counting at the district level. Then, when the round finishes, you add the district counts together to see whether there is a candidate with a majority. If not, you eliminate the last placed candidate from all districts (i.e. the same candidate from each district), redistributing votes for him/her where possible, count the redistributed votes and add them to the last sum.

I think his point would be the same (and maybe clearer) if he said assert.isFalse(p1 == p2).

I.e. he's not concerned about the testing semantics, but JavaScript's equality semantics which we're expected to assume the test function is using.

Is the wear of the nozzle still relevant considering the wear of the pump? I can imagine that the historical problems are due to turbulence in the system and we can simulate that adequately these days. Or do the abrasions inside the system dominate?

The nozzle and hose are easy to exchange, and a replacement part with predictable wear is a plus from the manufacturers/investors perspective. I'd wager that the pump is the problematic part here.
It will likely only open a calculator if you run it against the exact version of everything listed in the blog post, which is Ubuntu 12.04.5 without any further patches.

Any different version of Ubuntu (such as 14.04.anything), will have a different glibc binary. Among other issues, the exploit has a hard coded offset of the delta between the memset() and system() functions inside glibc. This offset will only be valid against the glibc binary for 12.04.5. With more work, the exploit could be modified to dynamically calculate the correct offset for almost any version of glibc.

If the offset is invalid, you're likely to still get a crash, just no calculator. So the presence of a crash or not can be used to determine trouble vs. ok.

That said, Ubuntu 14.04 isn't too badly affected. It does come with gstreamer-0.10, but it does not appear to be used for much. As far as I could tell, gstreamer-1.0 is used for the most important stuff (totem, totem-video-thumbnailer, etc.).
I thought I knew the story, but I didn't know that lives were at stake.

Since you asked..The New York Times completely made up the story about Trump mocking a disabled reporter, to distract from their reporting of his comments about seeing Muslims celebrating in New Jersey [1]. Freeze framed his arms and completely made up the story to match. That's just one of many, many deliberate misdirections and bogus factchecking fails by the MSM in this election. The New York Times even apologised to its readers for its biased coverage.

It's actually the other way around. If your object is immutable, whether it has identity or not (i.e. whether it's a "value object" or not) doesn't matter! There's nothing useful you could derive from that identity, so it might as well not exist.

So, languages should stop thinking in terms of "this is a reference type" and "this is a value type", and start thinking about "this references something mutable" vs "this references something immutable". For the latter, the implementation can then use by-value semantics for perf reasons, where appropriate.
You already have to check the license of any code you use, not sure how this is an extra burden. You just have to decide once upfront if the particular project will be AGPL.

At work some clients don't want the extra burden of the network distribution clause, when that's the case we don't use AGPL code; but that's precisely the point - the authors don't want them to be able to use the code on their server without sharing.
The gold standard is a great example of a disagreement - you cited a group that is probably dominated/biased by the Chicago School of Economics, and even then there is no real consensus on anything there.

Economists are a lot closer to astrologists than astrophysicists, they agree when the notion is vague enough to not have any testable inferences.

For the large part thought fractures into schools and is built off broad ideas (government should intervene in business cycles, or government should never intervene, etc), and you might see agreement there.

Ask HN: How can I use my technical skills for good, in our time?
I have never really cared about anything bigger than my own life, since I've been lucky enough to be privileged.
Recent events have for the first time led me to think that there are some things bigger and more important than me, and I am at a complete loss as to how I can apply my skills and energy towards being part of the solution.

How can technologists help in this era of broken media, global internet trolling and misunderstood lower economic classes populations?

I am not looking to rant, or insult anyone, I am looking for ideas of how to apply my energy and skills to yield results.

Thank you in advance for your time.

This is the narrative currently being pushed, but let's not forget its weaknesses:

- A blue-collar senior in Appalachia is really unlikely to have enough contact with those "liberal college students" to be bothered with their constant references to Judith Butler etc.

- If the issue is with racism or homophobia, I don't see a compromise happening: minority rights aren't subject to popular approval. Democracy isn't two wolves and a sheep deciding on dinner.

- Trump voters are by and large not the poorest. The white guy with missing teeth living in a trailer is the wrong cliche, because he's unlikely to vote at all. These are conservatives, many retired.

- Every time some politician talks about "real America", he's trying to delegitimize liberals. I fail to see how that is less insulting.

- People who decide to punish the weakest of the weak, just because it's a convenient way to annoy me, are indeed worse people.

- The left should get back to talking about economics, yes. But I doubt that these voters would appreciate it, seeing as the last time the left made the case against neoliberalism, most of them probably complained about "the smelly hippies who should get a job instead of taking about some 99% or 1% BS"

- there are quite a few improvements for a factory worker who lost his job that the left has implemented, or would like to if not for a complete boycott of government by the right: universal healthcare, universal income, consumer financial protection (payday-loan and similar specifically targeting poor people). Strong anti-trust regulation. Redirecting money from the military to investments in infrastructure/education/health...
Thank god we are finally focusing on this issue. I can not believe we allowed right wing propaganda sites to publish so much false information for so long.

Anyone who denies the existence of this is being dishonest. There is no way you can defend the journalist integrity of the 'breitbart' of the web. It takes 'yellow journalism' to a whole new level.

It has also become obvious to us that the average internet user, has no idea how to vet anything on the web. They lack the simplest ability to recognize the deceiving nature of the URL they are visiting. And we're not just talking about uneducated folks. I've seen plenty of college-educated people share fake news.

This is rotting our democracy.

I am at the point where I feel like technologists and journalists have to work together to establish some sort of browser based credentialing system that we give to content creators to signal that they are a legitimate news source. Like how we SSL validate sites. It maybe as useless as a "certified organic" sticker, but at least it'll be better than nothing.
Multiple forms of equality: I think there should be just one "equality": the obvious structural one, which can be inferred by a compiler. What examples are there of cases where there is no obvious equality but still the official "equality" tag is needed?

EDIT: got downvoted, why? It's a serious question. I've never had any use for any equality besides the structural one. Honestly want to see if anyone can come up with a valid case.
This is a huge step in democracy.

I'm hoping that we can get fully digital, cryptographically verifiable elections before I die.

I think what the parent poster implied was that older people who aren't very technologically savvy, as in the kind who would define Facebook as "the internet", don't appreciate how easy it is to publish materials online and so they give any old bullshit that shows up in their feed more credit than it deserves. I believe this might be because they understand publishing on mediums like television and newspapers is hard and requires capital, so they assume that must be true of the internet also. This is in contrast to a younger audience that is more technologically savvy and understands how easy it is to publish and propagate information.

But it's dangerous to generalize. I know a lot of older people who are incredibly technologically savvy and younger people who only care about the narcissistic and quick-consumption facets of technology.
