>But as for the need for more money, this happened when conservatives were taking over one state house after another, and a large part of their agenda was cutting state budgets, and one happy consequence of this, from their perspective, is that it forced public universities to become much more like corporations. And when this happened, they did nothing to stop it, and just sat back and smiled.

It's worth noting that Governor Reagan was one of the first to take this path. He actually introduced tuition to the UC system just for "hippie-punching" the folks at Berkeley.
Well of course it's not ambiguous like English because they had no historical baggage. But properly romanized Japanese is also never ambiguous.

The tape industry is still billions of dollars per year. Enterprises still buy tape all the time, and tape technology is still iterating.

And tape is not even that competitve. It's like 1/3 the cost of HDDs, and has an 80 second seek time, making it completely unusable for most real time applications (still usable for theatrical movies).
I was speaking about the actual effects. If none of the cost controls introduced actually reduced costs, then you can keep citing millions of provisions, but unless they are effective, they were not cost controls.
My only issue with reader mode is that many sites seem to beat it with the stupid"load rest of article button" so you can't just load it all through reader.

On iOS I usually try to load articles in between stops in the subway and frequently cannot get just the article without being bothered by the rest of the nonsense on the page. I am ooen to the idea I might be just using readermode wrong but I'd have it on by default if I could be assured I'd actually get a full article each time.

Pretty much no material is produced entirely or even mostly in pinyin except material intended for children, learners, or Chinese diaspora who can speak but not read the language.

Regardless of the material you want people to read I think it's hard to call increasing literacy rates "sinister."
Asynchronous JavaScript using awaitify
Were the tickets unwarranted? Or are your objections because you don't want to pay fines?
> Consider that 也 is /yě/, and 得 is /de/.

There is no distinctions between the "e" because the latter uses a different rule in pinyin system from the first one:

In English you also have similar situations where the same composition gives you different pronunciations:

baked, raped vs gated, naked.
awaitify has a small set of functionality, but it could be really useful, if you want to write clean and readable async code without using any transpilers. Using Awaitify, Function Generators along with `yield` keyword works exactly like async/await function. It also allows to convert old fashioned callback based functions into promise based functions with writing only one line of code. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
I think what he meant is that pedestrian child deaths number (especially in the conditions that the only problem was speeding) is so small in comparison to total traffic child deaths that increasing it by 40% percent is still almost nothing.

So the argument "don't speed no matter what or you might kill a child that would otherwise not die" while technically true is not particularly strong.
Interestingly, Chinese from mainland china don't know much about him. And I even doubt it will be in any headline in main press. In China, politics (esp. agreeing with the Communist party) is more important than achievements. I hope though that in a few decades, China will find a way to recognize him

Ask HN: What's the difference between a website and a startup?
I received an email today. This person suggested I add my website to a list of startups. I won't turn down free and reasonable advertising, so I posted it: https://betapage.co/startup/sporestack

I've always thought of it as a service, since it accepts payment and gives you something in return. What exactly is a startup? I've worked at a couple -- I kind of think it's a marketing term. And well, almost certainly means pre-IPO.
I think this misses the forest for the trees.

McLeod identifies several very real problems with traffic ticket enforcement in Montgomery. The red light cameras are operated by a third party company on a secret contract. A police officer casually perjures themselves at the hearing. The court's processes are onerous and unfair. These problems should all be fixed.

But the author wants to make the case that traffic camera tickets are unconstitutional, and fails.

By his own admission, there's an established constitutional framework for issuing citations against vehicles and not people (in rem jurisdiction). So, yes, the existing statutes for enforcement of traffic fines are incompatible with cameras. But it seems clearly possible to write statutes that are compatible: nothing about in rem says you it doesn't apply to a moving vehicle.

Cities and states can move to a system where camera tickets are like very expensive parking tickets. That satisfies the superficial objective of cities (revenue generation) --- probably more cheaply than the current system. Meanwhile: they can collect data on drivers and run actual investigations on repeat offenders, taking them to court directly and based on evidence if the camera system produces indications that they're abusive drivers.

Traffic enforcement agents can simply ask you whether you were driving your car at the time of the ticket. Most drivers will simply confirm. Some would obviously deny driving the car, or refuse to answer at all. But the car has to be insured, and insurance contracts are opinionated about who drives cars. There's recourse there as well.

(It's worth noting that McLeod presumably does know who was driving his car, and presumably could have been compelled to testify as a witness in an actual criminal case --- what made his experience with Montgomery's traffic court so terrible was clownshoes procedural ineptness, not some fundamental problem with cameras).

It goes without saying that cameras themselves will also improve. Does anyone believe that 20 years from now it will be all that difficult to automatically attribute a driver to a car tagged for a moving violation?

If it sounds like I'm pro-traffic-camera here, it's because in some sense I am. I agree that the systems we have today are abusive and should be shut down. But the overall concept is a very good one. Armed police officers should not be the first line of traffic compliance enforcement. For "routine" violations, of the sort where a traffic officer would simply pull you over, write a ticket, and let you go, there's no reason to stop cars at all. Dozens of people are killed every year in violent confrontations with the police that begin solely because of some stupid traffic infraction.

I think cameras (and sensors in general) are the future of traffic enforcement and that that's a positive thing.
Cut Medicaid/Medicare?
Multiple cameras, possibly recording video, could record enough info to fully reconstruc the info on the infraction and get the picture of the driver and the plate even if they're on opposing sides of the car.

I'm curious about that as well - I have always thought "zhun" is one syllable.

There can be confusions though - the standard way of writing pinyin groups whole words rather than individual characters, so something like "xian" may represent either "西安" (two syllables) or "先" (one syllable).
Well, of course they support secure mode/EL3, it's just not exactly secure on any Allwinner-based system I'm aware of because the ROM bootloader will happily load any chunk of code yo choose to supply into RAM from the boot device and jump to it whilst still in EL3, without any signature checks. Allwinner really don't seem to be keen on locking their chips down.
> The opioids do not treat the pain!

That's not so black and white. They work to some extent as long as dosages don't keep escalating and use is intermittent. Even the link you posted says as much.
Well there are two options wrt controlling speed, one are the limits so that everyone kniws what to do and expect, and the second is bumps, e.g. London where driving on tarmac is as comfortable as driving down on steps. It's not reasonable to trust people driving tonnes of steel with liters of flammables inside impeccably at high speeds, especially in residential areas where roads are more like a tightly knit cobweb than a straight line from a to b.
"Consider that 也 is /yě/, and 得 is /de/. Except actually, the two e's are not the same sound."

I know this. And I see where you are coming from. But again, you are to focused on someone just reading text outright, without learning the "rules" of the language. This is where the problem is. Not taking the time to understand the language you are learning.

Your example is just another "rule" that is found in any textbook. I have probably 30 Chinese languages books on my shelf and I can find this and all the "rules" about pronouncing a /d/ as an unaspirated /t/ in most all of them.

So, it seems that learning pinyin is just fine if a person "learns" properly and just doesn't gloss over the foundation.

I appreciate your explanations, BTW.
Thanks, Thats good to know. I was operating under the assumption that the key pair associated with the cert and the cert were essentially the same.
Python 3 fixes the issue where variables in a comprehension "leak" to the surrounding scope.

Python 2:

x = 'hello'
[x*x for x in range(5)] #=> [0, 1, 4, 9, 16]
x #=> 4

Python 3:

x = 'hello'
[x*x for x in range(5)] #=> [0, 1, 4, 9, 16]
x #=> 'hello'

Python 3 has improved destructuring support

Python 2:

a, *b = [1, 2, 3] #=> Syntax error

Python 3:

a, *b = [1, 2, 3]
a #=> 1
b #=> [2, 3]

Type annotations[1] are nice not because they enable typechecking, but because they tell me what the function expects. Maybe it's just the kind of programming I do, but I use a bunch of libraries with functions that take a class or function as input, except half the time they want the name to the thing instead of the actual reference.

This answers my question (you replied to it in the original place too). Thank you. I get the point you're making. And I can see how it's a bad system. Now that I think about it, I remember a similar problem with _ei? Sometimes it's pronounced <schwa>i and sometimes <a as in day>i. Yes, I also completely agree that Pinyin seems like a shitty system and very non-uniform system given what it set out to do and what it already had to take inspiration from.

That having said, the I still don't get the point you make about tone-sandhis and such. How do you propose they be incorporated?
Whatever the other pros and cons of the print statement might be, one potential advantage of the function version of print, is that you can pass it to a function as an argument (call it the "output function" argument), and on other calls, substitute some other function in its place, which could do anything, like maybe output to a network connection, or to a file instead. Basically, a polymorphic parameter, which, based on the actual function value passed to it, might do one of a number of different but related things (all being some form of "output"). Like Python's file-like objects protocol, where you can pass any object that implements file-like functions/methods in a place where an actual file object arg is expected. Duck typing, IOW.

I realize this could also be done with the statement version of print, just by wrapping it in a function, using args, *kwargs, but it seems like the function version would be easier to use for this.

Of course, you would have to take care that all the functions you plan to pass to it, such as print and others, can do whatever is wanted to be done with it in the called code.
Actually, except for the very old most Koreans know pretty much no hanja beyond really basic ones like 大. I always think this argument is ridiculous. Japanese, Korean, and Chinese people have managed to speak their respective languages (or ancestors of them) for thousands of years without being excessively troubled by those pesky homophones despite the fact that until the 20th Century only a small minority of them were literate.

No, they are NOT strings, they are not any kind of strings. They are bytes:

>>> b'asd'[0]
97
>>> b'asd'[1]
115
>>> b'asd'[2]
100

They happen to contain an ASCII DECODABLE string in this case, but to get the text back, you NEED TO decode it first:

>>> text = b'asd'.decode()
>>> text[0]
'a'
>>> text[1]
's'
>>> text[2]
'd'
I got a red light ticket for a car I no longer own. I have a receipt of electronic transfer of title dated 6 months before the incident, passport stamps and travel documents proving I was out of the country, and the person in the photo was of the wrong gender and ethnicity.

I fought it via mail. It took multiple round trips. At each step the potential fine more than doubled. If I did not respond correctly or in time, I waved my right to appeal. The appeal paperwork contradicted itself. (Page 1: You must do X or we will reject your appeal. Page 2: You must not do X or we will reject your appeal). I had to send a passport photo less than 30 days old of myself in, but photos taken with electronic cameras are not allowed.

In the end, I sent a letter. The city of San Francisco is not obligated to inform me of a successful appeal, so either I beat the ticket, or some day (maybe years from now) they will issue a warrant for my arrest.

This isn't even guilty until proven innocent. 100% of the evidence presented against me proved my innocence, and I will be in legal limbo forever.

[edit: In a special kafka-esque twist, the only reason I was able to fill out the paperwork successfully is because the telephone operator at the SF courthouse took pity on me. There is a number to call for clarification, but no one picks up that phone. So, your best bet is to get your legal advice from the operator.]

It's not just an easy JS fix though. It complicates quite a lot on the server side. Your timed out request could have reached the server already, so the state would different now. From the server perspective it's not clear whether it was a retry or another request (and some actions are meant to be repeatable).

Now that I think about it, generating some request UUID and passing it to the server could allow it to quickly skip duplicates (it would also need to cache responses for resending them).

I'm also curious how often this problem occurs statistically (not just in your case, but for an average user of popular sites)
> Here's a case of a death that cost $250k for want of a $80 tooth extraction

It didn't "cost" $250,000. That's the sticker price of what they billed for the services, but that's not what they expected to be paid by insurance. That's a crucial distinction.

Just as you don't pay sticker price for a new car, the insurance company doesn't pay what the provider bills them for; they pay some agreed-upon rate, which is specified as a multiple of what Medicare pays.

> We were already paying for uninsured folks via bankruptcies etc.

Not exactly. Contrary to public misconception, it's well known in the medical world that preventive care is not cheaper in the long-run. (It generally results in better care, but not always, and it always results in greater utilization either way, so the end result is more expensive).

You can make the argument in favor of routine and preventive care on the grounds that it's the right thing to do, medically or morally. But it does result in greater costs overall, and that still has to be paid for.

That's a ridiculously contrived example. By this logic I guess we need to introduce a system based on Chinese characters because it's hard to interpret the meaning of "Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffalo_buffalo_Buffalo_buffal...)

It's still possible to be reasonably productive on dial-up if you're working in a screen or tmux session over ssh.

But the modern web is hopeless on slow connections. Some sites are pretty bad even at standard cable internet speeds. Site developers who work with gigabit fiber connections should try their pages at 10Mb or slower and 3G speeds out of courtesy to the real world.
Yes, I don't like that last usage too. Non-orthogonal syntax is slightly harder to learn / remember, and the more of if there is, the more the cognitive / memory load. Of course, no language can be perfectly orthogonal or regular, though I guess Lisp comes close. (Not an expert on language design or theory.)

No, but there's a bigger problem than the mismatched cultural observations made in support of the article's claim that people also miss.

Regardless whether the American experience in the US study applies to the Japanese office, there's a point that remains: while those Japanese might not get promoted or get fired for working less, it would still be better for them to quit their career than work themselves to death.

This goes along with what I have been saying. The OP's argument would suggest that anyone just reading outright and not taking the time to learn would pronounce the /e/ all the same. However, learning the "rules" is required to pronounce it properly. This isn't a bad or damaging thing.

It really depends on your life stage. If you're single and plan on staying that way for a couple of years then you can come up with alternative arrangements (i.e. Shared housing, etc) that make those Bay Area salaries actually worth more than the rest of the country. And the commections that you make will be worth it.

If you're older and/or have a family then no freaking way. Adjusted for cost of living the Bay Area salries are lower than many places. Apparently Minneapolis and Atlanta pay Software Engineers the most money if you adjust for cost of living. I just moved away to the Midwest and I kept my salary (the company hiring me considered it a "raise" and they weren't wrong). Adjusted for cost of living I would be making over 250k in the Bay Area (according to Pay Scale's COLA calculator).

I often hear folks from the Bay Area say the rest of the country doesn't pay well, but from conversations I've had with other professionals I have had in my town and a perusal of Glassdoor tells a different story it's not hard to make 140k+ where I live.

Companies in the Midwest and Southeast know they are competing for talent with the Coastal centers and they have started to pony up.

You can't look at absolute dollars. If you make ~120k in the Bay you have to realize that's like making 75k every where else.
I don't know how exactly it works under Windows, but at least under Linux such optimizations usually don't pay off much since most used pages are already kept in the RAM anyway.
The 1GB ram per TB is wrong. More memory definitely helps, especially if you add an L2ARC cache which can use a lot of memory just for mapping. But in most cases you are probably fine with just 1-2GB of ram.

I would never use deduplication on ZFS, it is very slow even if you have enough RAM. And in most cases, savings are less than 10%.
