Jail all communists. Cut expenses by factor of 3x. Introduce a stable currency (e.g. «equivalent of 1 USD» - equo). Force creation of new small firms by providing government couching and assistance, while also reduce taxes for them to bare minimum — small business can soak lot of unemployment for free. Rely on large business to cover government expenses, but be realistic: no taxes means no expenses.

PS.

Moreover, remove all regulations and restrictions which are not vitally important. It's equivalent of turn off of all consumers of electricity when starting of a car engine.
This looks significantly safer therefore less impressive. Stupid i know but it's true.

It would be awesome to know how long their apprenticeship period was—or is there even one? That nonverbal communication is impressive, and the picture at the end gives me the impression that they're proud as a team of their work.
No, VCRs didn't have movies, at least at first. At a time when porn producers saw a direct-to-viewer distribution channel in the VCR (and a means to avoid the hassle of having to find theaters willing to show their work), the mainstream movie industry saw a threat. MPAA head Jack Valenti delivered his famously tasteless speech stating that the VCR was to the film industry what the Boston Strangler was to the woman home alone. He would go to his grave wishing he could make the VCR illegal; thankfully most of the rest of the industry got a clue and saw the potential of video rental of mainstream movies.

(Fun fact; this is a large part of why VHS won the format wars; at 2 hours an SP VHS tape was long enough to fit a feature-length film of the day on a single cassette. But the victory wasn't so decisive until after Hollywood took interest, well into the VCR's history.)

And video streaming well predated YouTube. Granted, it was a mess of proprietary plugins, RealPlayer, abd/or Windows Media Player. But I'm fairly certain most of the sites doing video streaming before YouTube were porn sites.

They way they maneuvered those forklifts in the beginning almost reminded me of watching ants dragging a large bit of scavenge back to the colony, or any sort of insect with limited manipulation affordances (mandibles, maybe forelegs). I wonder how long it takes the brain to learn to translate to limited output. I remember being utterly baffled and clumsy my first time playing a twin stick first person shooter. Is the process generalizable to any sort of 'get my output devices to do my intention' process (i.e., does the same process wire you to learn to play a musical instrument, or type)?
I'm not sure why so many people here are ignoring Levandowski's stated reason for not applying for the permit / downvoting people who agree with him, without explaining why they think Levandowski's argument is incorrect. This isn't a case of them willfully disobeying a regulation, it's them disagreeing with the regulating agency about the interpretation of the regulation.

And this disagreement isn't a necessarily a bad thing; I think the regulation is unclear, and in such cases the only way to "clarify" it is to wait for the regulating body to sue you and have both sides present their arguments in court. (You can't just ask them to clarify it, as they have no obligation to respond).
So, the best way to monetize a breach is to play with the company's stock while you disclose the breach. Interesting.

> So if right at this moment the world had only enough doctors to care for half the population, regardless of the price, that wouldn't be a shortage of doctors?

Doctors may not be the best example. Where I live, at least, the government really does set a price ceiling for doctors, so a shortage is very much possible. Ignoring that, simply not being able to afford a doctor does not mean there is a shortage of them. That means you cannot afford a doctor. Which is a problem in its own right, but not a problem defined by shortage. Not all problems are shortage problems.

> If there are only 10,000 people in a field who are under the age of 70 but have at least 20 years of experience, and the industry needs 50,000 of them to function efficiently - that's not a shortage of experienced skilled workers?

No, because as price rises, that 50,000 number will decline. There is only so much money willing to be spent. At some price point, businesses will only be able to afford 10,000 people and the demand will be met exactly by the number of people available to work. Or if the job really requires 50,000 people absolutely, they will decide it no longer needs to be done, leaving the the need at 0 people.

> Not every commodity experiences a drop in demand as the price rises.

How can that be? Not everyone has the same resources available. Like the businesses above, as price rises, some can no longer afford the good or service. That takes them out of the market. Demand does not simply mean what you want to have. Price is always a component. Like that great earlier comment here about Porches, there isn't shortage of Porches because every poor man who admires the car can't afford one. They are simply not in the market for one in the first place, no matter how much they dream about owning one.

> Markets aren't magic.

Nobody said they were. The scenarios you point out, where price is able to rise, are something, but not shortages.
Linus on Understanding Pointers
I use the manumatic function a lot in my 4EAT, because it always seems like it's in the wrong gear otherwise. I test drove a 5 speed and I hated it, cause the gearing seemed horrible for the speed limits which are really common around me.

Anyways, I take the highway to work, and I take a short stint on a highway and then surface streets on my way home. On my way home I run in to something like 40 stop signs. Pretty much every intersection has a four way stop for a few miles of my commute.

I can actually quantify how much the roof rack affects mileage, because I track whether I have it on my car or not in addition to my mileage.
Really? I used python for a few years a long while back and I thought that this was common knowledge. Perhaps it was the timing of it all as I now that I google around a bit most of the SO posts and such are from when I was writing Python.
In (1) you assume that people buy green energy mainly or to a large extent to reduce the emissions they personally suffer from. Have you considered that a big reason for many people to buy green energy might just be to provide incentives for green energy production in order to combat emissions globally without regard for whether they personally benefit from it? If everyone consumes energy "covered" by certificates, this increases viability of producing green energy.

In (2) you say that the scheme is likely to be gamed. Can you elaborate on how that would look like? Does this "Occam's razor" necessarily mean that only simple laws are effective?

Also in (2) you claim that there is not enough real green energy available to satisfy the demand. This is obviously true but this means that the demand creates an incentive for companies to produce green energy wherever possible.

Overall what this system really provides is an option for consumers to optionally subsidize green energy producing companies and so far I have not really heard of any concrete case in which this system has been gamed. Do you know any?

All that immutability humbug, for starters. Traditional Lisps are "everything you can access is mutable".

Lisp trusts the programmer to be responsible with mutability and not to abuse it. The trust is not misplaced; the sky doesn't fall.

Exactly. I have seen people who are fantastic developers when working on solo projects but start to struggle when placed in a business/group environment. Once things like business priorities start informing what people are going to be working on when, once folks need to start coordinating with other developers and their own quirks it starts going downhill
I'm a little confused on what you're proposing. Should package A get the update to 1.0.1 or not? If it does get the update then you still have the problem of "Sometimes, all the code uses the same package, other times not, seemingly randomly." If it doesn't get the update then you keep having a security flaw.
What do you see as the most important differences (or, what are the main kinds of macros for which syntax-rules is inadequate)?
This seems like a really important distinction. Though, the fact that other works can be copyrighted seems like that distinction isn't that important.

Also, doesn't the US have international agreements regulating copyright, and couldn't those protections be much more broad than the constitutional protections anyways?

Ask HN: Devops side projects for a student?
I'm graduating in a couple of years, and I would like to find some project ideas.

I've done some web programming in the past, but gradually I became more interested in the operations side of things.

But unlike apps, I'm not sure how to showcase a particular "devops project" to future employers. I've used docker/vagrant for local development, ansible for configuration management, jenkins, etc. But these aren't necessarily something I can talk about hours on end.

I'm planning to find a devops internship position, but until then, is there something I could work on?

> It's not, they're two separate things. Unfortunately, nobody can agree on terminology for this stuff.

There is standard terminology though. Coroutines allow arbitrarily nested calls back and forth. So-called "stackful" coroutines are the only possibility in C. Other languages perform a program translation into continuation-passing style to support stackless coroutines with the same semantics.

CORO falls under a class of abstractions known as "generators". You can think of it like a degenerate coroutine limited to a single call level, but I don't think conflating the terminology like this is useful.
I studied Russian for one semester when I was in middle school. I didn't learn very much and can remember even less: only a few simple words like яблоко (yabloko -- "apple").

But I can still sound out words in the Cyrillic alphabet without any difficulty. Learning another alphabetic script really doesn't take that much time or effort.
Has anyone ever tried writing English in Arabic script? From working with complex text layout, I know Arabic letters have 4 forms (isolated, initial, medial, final). It would be kind of cool if I could spot check the shaping engine is working properly by testing with English in Arabic script...

You certainly could, but the downside is they are decoupled. With this card, every purchase is coupled with money going to the linux foundation.

It might be less than what you could earn/donate elsewhere, but it gives them an additional source of recurring revenue that they can plan against.
Of course. But my point was that most of the modern web seems to be mobile friendly or even "mobile first". (And hence not depend on effects being able to use effects like that).

>> Coroutines based on stack manipulation(as opposed to simple FSMs) are extremely powerful and are particularly useful for implementing fair scheduling across runnable ‘processes’ and concurrent execution contexts.

So, isn't this what threads are for? This is not a snarky comment, genuine interest: but isn't this what the OS scheduler and thread implementations are meant to do, and implementing essentially ones own threads and scheduling is the epitomy of 'reinventing the wheel'? Specifically, when going down the route of using a coroutine to essentially duplicate functionality provided by native threads, is there any performance advantage? My understanding is that, nowadays, OS threads and schedulers are very highly optimize for performance.

Other than being able to write concurrent code with yield() and resume(), is there really any reason to NOT use OS level primitives?
Sorry, but got to disagree with you there. I'm a security tester and have been in the industry for 15+ years either as a buyer or provider of services, for small and large companies, I've been involved in procurement of multi hundred $k tests and involved in the delivery similar sized engagements.

You absolutely can get good security testing consultants for $2k/day for example, and probably less depending on the region and exact speciality.

for $368k at a $2k/day rate that would be 184 person-days or several person months (as stated).

It's well known there are teams who specialize in specific technologies, and with a sophisticated customer, not too tricky to interview and make sure you get the right people.
That's partly because M&P hasn't been around that long. Among recent movies (released after 2005 when M&P was created), imfdb lists 10 with DE and 16 with M&P.

TV is 11 DE vs. 23 M&P, and video games 9 DE to 1 M&P.

So if you think that movies and TV shape demand, you would expect to see more demand for M&P at the ranges.

In reality the distribution of guns people ask for at the ranges is a lot closer to what's in video games than in movies/TV.

There are many "cool" guns, but if they're not in video games, nobody cares.
For an illustration of this, see [1]. Keep in mind that this was almost 20 years ago, so the hardware he's running is probably something like a dual-socket Pentium Pro or Pentium II platform with a 66 MHz bus and core clock speeds around 10% of what we see on modern processors, and nothing like a modern GPU (I'd guess that the graphics hardware has accelerated blitting and an overlay for the live video input, though; it's unlikely that software is pushing every pixel in that demo).

Well, yeah — but NT was maimed mainly by flawed implementation and assumptions made in the threat model (crucially, assumptions about the remote and local attack surface —code execution by unauthenticated users (the world of the web) and the presumption of no offline access to local hardware (NTchngpwd)—) that required strengthening and reinforcement, whereas BeOS (and DOS/Windows9x) are totally unprepared for this kind of thinking.
The confusion in your example was using OOP vs functional. The Area getter in my example could be a method, it just makes it slightly nicer to have it as a getter in C# for that type of thing.

But, the actual getter/setter is:

public Size { get; set; }

In Ruby it would be:

attr_accessor :size

In scala it would be:

var size

A little more code in c# but still a fairly concise 1 liner. Which you can't say the same for in Java, unless you use Lombok of course.

But yes, overall I agree, LOC is a bad metric but we don't have much else to go on. Pure project count perhaps is a more reliable metric of language use but still has many flaws.

>just the OP isn't comfortable discussing it in detail

I have to say, if the OP is comfortable in making these very grave accusations but not comfortable enough to explain what happened but just to give her assessment of the situation; it doesn't do her credibility any good.

There are a number of red flags noted throughout the comments, and much of this criticism has been met with "omg so horrible you have to believe the victim". This is a very worrying trend that will only lead to polarizing individuals into either of the hate camps; where those that rush to sympathize will create fertile grounds for false accusations and those who feel are being deceived are going to be desbelieving of actual victims.

There are two things going on here: 1. the desire to allow every package to install its dependencies separately to guarantee deterministic behavior, and 2. not too take up a lot of disk space. The desired result in this SPECIFIC scenario is simple:

1. Package B contains the faulty Dependency 1 1.0.0.
2. Package A contains the correct Dependency 1 1.0.1.

This is the best case scenario in this situation: Package A is not subject to the security problems of Dependency 1 1.0.0. Package B IS of course, but critical parts of your code are not exposed. If these were the only two packages involved, it would be simple. However the problem arrises from having LOTS of packages, and thus wanting to dedupe, which then leads to having to resolve these semver ranges, or being left with the unfortunate indeterministic behavior of sometimes these being distinct installations and sometimes not.

Thus, to achieve the desired result above AND ensure packages are only installed once on disk, you want to dedupe at the FILESYSTEM level. This is how ied behaves (and I encourage everyone to take a look at its implementation, it is very well done). Essentially, every package is installed and contains symlinks to their dependencies, that way it only takes up space on the hard disk once. However, thanks to node's treat-symlinks-as-real-filepaths option, as far as node is concerned these are distinct installations (as if you had done no deduping at all). Now you have the result from above AND the minimum space on disk.
