Absolutely. And I don't doubt that Hillary wouldn't have expanded them further; if anything she's more hawkish than Trump.

That said, only one of these two people is asking for names of every government employee who has attended a climate science meeting in the past 5 years. The implications are truly chilling.

Tech worker resistance is crucial to preventing human rights abuses in the U.S
I attended one of Google's talks on this. The rationale is that humans can't be trusted to take control in a timely manner for that 0.01%. Their internal testing with an L4 system on trained Googlers (who were told to remain alert in the event that action needed to be taken) had instances of testers sleeping, eating, putting on makeup, etc. They concluded that if Googlers with explicit training couldn't behave themselves, then L4 definitely wasn't sufficient for the general public; autonomous driving had to be all or nothing.
grepping a tree would not be hard. You simply go down to the leaves and "grep" on the properties themselves. Inversely, structured data lets you easily get to a property.

For example, if you grep the output ls -l for a file named "1", you'll also get files with 1 in their timestamp. In text land, you have to edit the ls command to get simpler output. In structured land, you could edit your filter:
ls -l | grep name~=1

You could imagine various structured data filter tools that could be built that wouldn't require modifying the input.

Though in this example, you can easily use awk to select the column, wouldn't it be nice to not have to worry about things like escape characters when parsing text?
Why do you think Chrome is a better browser? Better for what? I find Safari more responsive, and since I'm already all in on the Apple ecosystem, the handoff, and iCloud syncing of bookmarks etc, works better for me. It also feels a bit faster to start up for me. Not sure what chrome is better for, except as a way to cast videos to a Chromecast on my TV.
See my sibling comment. It matters because it's a very strong (to academic/industry researchers) sign of quality and whether the paper is worth reading. If you wanted to just put something out there you could just put on arxiv. The authors are academics (?) so they clearly want to publish in the best possible venue.
Well that was just numbering . The API itself didn't change that much.

Calling it just angular with multiple version changes makes it difficult to search for angular 1 lib/docs which is fully different framework and was/is also called angular

I look at at least one man page probably every day. And I'd be really surprised if this wasn't the case for anyone who works on the command line.
Mine is an odd job in that that assertion isn't much of a stretch at all. There are a couple different paths that could steer me to different ends of that range, but not too many ways I'd be outside it.
Really great article, I don't think I've read anything on tech PR that's this actionable in ages. You usually have a certain intuition for the points OP is trying to make (be personal, be brief, don't spam, tell something interesting), but people rarely discuss actual strategies or plans of action in detail.
For me personally, I've benefited from another aspect: AMD doesn't constantly change their sockets (edit: or at maintains some level of compatibility).

My wife's laptop died, and she just wanted me to do put together something cheap for her office (she has a tablet and work laptop). I bought myself a new motherboard (keeping my CPU), gave her my old one and put in an older CPU I had.

A year and half later, I upgraded my CPU to an FX-8350. My old CPU (Phenom x4) moved to the basement NAS/Plex server, a nice upgrade to Athlon II CPU (without requiring a new motherboard).

Had I been on Intel, I would simply not done those upgrades because they wouldn't have been worthwhile. Basically every CPU upgrade requires a new motherboard. And in my experience, nearly every time I've had to get a new motherboard, my memory or video card or some other component is now outdated, and suddenly I'm basically building a completely new PC.
>There's a reason why the project name doesn't change just because you bumped the major version number.

The OP suggested to make an "evergreen" Angular, like an evergreen Chrome. My point is that you can't do that if you introduce breaking changes, because "this will work in C (and just upgrade to a new version if you don't have it)" doesn't work anymore.

Obviously making small breaking changes shouldn't require renaming your language (so PHP4 is still PHP, even though it broke quite a lot of old files relying on register_globals)
this is for people who cant read or write. they dont know numbers.

There might be a correlation, but it wouldn't prove anything. The data might be just as strongly correlated with income, class, race, etc.

Executive jobs wherein you can get fired for losing to your competitors compensate you for this risk by paying fuck-you money on a yearly, sometimes even daily basis. If the CEO of Exxon is fired for failing to overtake BP, he could never work again and still die with more in the bank than I will ever earn.

It's interesting to see how many people seem want to stop the conversation at "you're bound to lose one so what's the point."

We need a code of ethics for software developers, with actual teeth (violating it means you can't commercially build software any more).

Edit: it's amazing how much the alt-right has infiltrated Hacker News. The notion that we, as developers, should have a professional obligation to engage ethically should not be so controversial (yet here I am with negative karma for proposing it).

To expand on my point:

1. This is hardly a novel suggestion. Lots of positions have professional associations with ethics rules. See engineers, doctors, lawyers, librarians, etc.

2. This is not a union. Lawyers don't bargain collectively.

3. Nobody is talking about illegal immigration. The worry here is around proposals for a database of Muslim-Americans (who are almost all here legally).

4. Nobody is coming for your code. Obviously you won't need to enter your professional PIN to compile code. It just means you'd have to be a member to work for a major tech company.
As a foreigner who lives in Shanghai for almost 8 years, the list would be a bit different:

1) pollution - Since the Disneyland has opened, things are improved. But above the regular days, it is depressing when finally the weekend came and you can't leave the 4 walls.

2) overpopulation - I don't mean the large population, but the overpopulation. There is no space for cars, yet everybody is buying, sometimes a two lane road becomes barely one, because one lane is completely blocked by parking cars and bikes going randomly. Parks are small and spare in the city. There is barely playground for children only expensive indoor ones.

3) People.. I know I know, but it drives me mad, you can only queue up like once in a year when nobody will come to the front to you. I can't count how many times I've seen that cars just blocking the ambulance in rush for no reason.
When you stop with your car because the road is blocked, it's guaranteed sby from the back will try to overtake you either from left or right. My friend had a light accident with a motorcyclist (50%-50%), he brought him the hospital and paid everything. Few months later he was dragged to the court and was charged for 28K RMB (~$4K) (including the bills he paid in the hospital, fortunately he kept the cc receipts, the repair of the bike cost like a new one etc. even if it is mostly paid by the insurance, very depressing to see this amount of fraud). And so on..
Of course you can meet nice and good people, but still the daily routine will be different (also gave up counting how many times i was almost hit by a car or motor).

4) The first green is like 4 hours driving. And not easy drive but bloody fight. Have to be fully alert, people even overtake you on the shoulder of the road + I can't recall I ever could drive without seeing accidents, see barrels or other things on the road.

5) internet - after 7-8pm it is basically cut, so overloaded, no website loads that is not hosted in the country. You have to use some kind of vpn for everything! ... your gray hair is granted. No form of video-chat works beside wechat. Skype though exists, in the current year, was really painful communicating with my parents.. as my experience goes only works during working hours or on mobile net. In this year when i go home, I started to consider it as an offline zone.

.. sorry to be honest, no pun intended. It is how it is (My wife is Chinese so Im halfway there also :)... and things are improving with time, just way too slowly, Except 2. and 4. that can't be really fixed. (can't imagine anytime soon that it will be a dream destination..)
While the benefits you listed are correct, you're missing the biggest one: relative cost of the sensor array. High-fidelity LIDAR tech is cost prohibitive to include in general consumer vehicles (hence taxi as a service), but it's much more practical for trucks which typically run in the hundreds of thousands of dollars.

> It's not proper to turn around and call those investigations improper simply because they didn't find anything.

And why not? "Some kid reporting" should not be enough to trigger even the most cursory look - especially when, as you conveniently leave out of your scenario, that cursory look involves issuing an NSL or otherwise obtaining non-public information by exerting the government's considerable power and influence. I see no reason why that should be allowed, nor that it is properly allowed under our legal framework. "Some kid reporting" is not probable cause.

That's such a cynical, boring view. I'm sorry, but it is.

You really think that Apple removed the headphone jack to make a bit more cash? Seriously? Hand-on-heart honestly, you think that's why? Come on.

I think it's because they love cool new things. Thank fk they do because, frankly, nobody else seems to be doing anything interesting. I know, I know, they're not perfect. AirPods are late. They're expensive. I know.

But I guarantee you that, come 2020, you will be hard pushed to find a set of wired headphones that resemble those we wear today. I would bet my current net worth on it†. The time has come to do new things with headphones. You want to call them "magical"? Maybe not. But a tiny thing that sits in my ear, Star Trek style, that I can tap and talk to Siri, that detects when I'm talking, that mutes itself, that swaps between paired devices seamlessly, that charges in a little tic-tac case, that's cool. That's what the world wants. It's certainly what I want.

But hey, I guess we can just assume they're trying to scrape a few more dollars out of everyone. Yep, that's probably what this is about.

You could use Cloudflare for DNS and their API[1] for updating a subdomain of your own to your dynamic ip. With that, you could also use the dehydrated[2] script with dns challenges to host subdomains with ssl on your lan. It's all easily automated, as well.

The beginning of PART II in his book "The Strategy of Conflict" is good intro to what he was thinking.

PART II. A REORIENTATION OF GAME THEORY

4. TOWARD A THEORY OF INTERDEPENDENT DECISION

On the strategy of pure conflict - the zero-sum games - game theory has yielded important insight and advice. But on
the strategy of action where conflict is mixed with mutual dependence - the nonzero-sum games involved in wars and threats
of war, strikes, negotiations, criminal deterrence, class war, race war, price war, and blackmail; maneuvering in a bureaucracy
or in a traffic jam; and the coercion of one's own children traditional game theory has not yielded comparable insight or
advice. These are the "games" in which, though the element of
conflict provides the dramatic interest, mutual dependence is
part of the logical structure and demands some kind of collaboration or mutual accommodation - tacit, if not explicit - even if
only in the avoidance of mutual disaster. These are also games in
which, though secrecy may play a strategic role, there is some
essential need for the signaling of intentions and the meeting of
minds. Finally, they are games in which what one player can
do to avert mutual damage affects what another player will do to avert it, so that it is not always an advantage to possess initiative, knowledge, or freedom of choice.
Apple removes the ‘time remaining’ battery estimate in new macOS update
I'm in the same boat. Every computer I build is on a shoestring budget, re-using old components, etc. AMD has been a lifesaver. They provide acceptable performance at a price I can afford.
The original Xbox One used a Jaguar[0] based chip, which is really quite a different bread than the Bulldozer or Zen micro architectures. (It's closer to what you'd find in a netbook than in a high end machine, minus the custom memory cache/controller setup AMD designed for Microsoft.)

While it's possible they'd switch micro-architectures, if history is any indication, I suspect it's more likely what you'll see is a die-shrink (28nm -> 14nm) combined with higher clock speeds. And hopefully a faster memory controller (I think that's more the bottleneck than raw CPU power). But that's entirely my speculation.

I suppose it depends on your definition of near. I'm about an hour drive from a major city. Less so to smaller urban areas that have no significant public transit. No it's not the wilds of Wyoming but most people here probably wouldn't consider being on a 100 acres or so with a couple of other houses being near lots of other people.

This is what I'm discovering as well. For the past month I've been learning node.js, express.js and everything that comes with it.

I'm an (inefficient) vim user. I learned vim because I didn't want to ssh into a terminal and type nano. For this purpose learning an editor that is shipped with every (?) unix-system is amazing. I don't know if emacs is also shipped with every unix-system, but learning the basics for the sake of configuring servers is quite handy. I also loved Sublime Text, so I combined using vim and Sublime Text as my main editor.

However, when learning node and writing good javascript I noticed that my debug cycle was very slow. It was so slow that I noticed that I was debugging 80% of the time and writing code about 5 to 10, and thinking about code 10 to 15. So in my case getting a good debugger was a lot more important than having an editor with which I can whizz through text.

So for node.js I switched to Visual Studio Code.
Yes, it's an amazing book. But it looks very similar, hence my question ;-)

This kind of predictable reactions to specific human gestures.. I fear it will have great uses for certain type of crimes. What will you do if someone stops you with the purpose of assaulting _for eg, a robbery_ you and the car refuses to run the dude over because he made a gesture and is now in front of your car while his buddies are waiting aside?

There are good reasons why things like these happened:

> The law of some states, such as Louisiana, explicitly lists a killing in the course of defending oneself against forcible entry of an occupied motor vehicle as a justifiable homicide.

While I'm interested in self driving cars that still feature manual controls you can override, like Tesla, I have no interest in a future controlled by Google's AI without my input.
That's no more possible than a code of ethics for painters that would prevent them from creating new pictures. But the technical impossibility of this is no barrier to stringent social sanctions that would make it virtually impossible to get hired to any position of responsibility in the future.

A code cannot have teeth without being backed up by some organization to do the biting, as it were, meaning some sort of union or professional association whose bylaws enshrine these ethical standards. Otherwise the 21st century equivalent of 'I was only following orders' will be 'that's above my pay grade.'
It is interesting how many products flame out with a bad initial press reception. That can be hard to recover from. But it even happens with big companies (see Google Glass).

That said, I think there is a balance, and getting that sort of feedback early on for what is typically a pretty small investment of time and energy in terms of PR can be immensely helpful. It can be a defining moment of understanding product/market fit, especially if you get any negative press that spells out exactly what you're doing wrong.

The connection between language and humour is an interesting topic, and brings to mind the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis (or more generally, linguistic relativity [1]).

It can be difficult to tell how much of a cue (or "clown" as you mention) is required/necessary for the joke to be understood. For example, even American comedians often deliver the punch-line in an overt/exaggerated way.

I've noticed (possibly broader) Chinese and Dutch humour depends much more on slapstick and stereotypes. Of course I probably wouldn't even register the more subtle humor from those cultures.

I've often wondered if there are unique (semantic & syntactic) qualities of the English language that lend themselves to more to particular kinds of (deadpan or sarcastic) humour, such as semantic ambiguity (cf. double entendres), variations in phrasing & tone), etc.

Even the German language can be abused for a similar purpose, as the following quote from [2] illustrates:

> Kafka often made extensive use of a characteristic particular to the German language which permits long sentences that sometimes can span an entire page. Kafka's sentences then deliver an unexpected impact just before the full stop—this being the finalizing meaning and focus. This is due to the construction of subordinate clauses in German which require that the verb be positioned at the end of the sentence. Such constructions are difficult to duplicate in English, so it is up to the translator to provide the reader with the same (or at least equivalent) effect found in the original text.
