To take the discussion a little wider - land is a finite and productive resource unlike almost all other property. History is full of land reappropriation when it falls into ineffiecent use - whether as goverened as such or through violence when governments fail to do so. As a simple premise governments shouldnt allow land to remain significantly underutilised
First Encounters with the Web
I am learning rust. To me, the amazing thing is the lack of runtime.

If you are writing a library to render the latest web image format, or implement the latest secure network protocol, then your choices are limited and Go is not an option.

Sure, you could write it in Go and then Go programmers could use it.

But if you write it in C or rust, it could be the de facto library for nearly all languages.

The article is a good one, but doesn't really influence my personal opinion much.

Sorry for this very generic message but here's the rule of thumb in tech for 2017. Especially in Silicon Valley:

- Be as young as possible (young people work with young/younger people)

- Don't work remotely (too many local people now your employer will replace you)

- Don't be outdated (a new fresh out of college will be up to date, you won't because of your daily job)

- Associate yourself with the hottest stuff out there (It's never too late, build something on your own and show it)
Apple Inc. isn't taking this development lightly. It even prohibited WeChat from using the term "app" as applied to mini programs.

Thanks for the explanation. I was just curious since I know I have seen posts about 18F here on HN before which sounded like very similar work. This is the first time I heard of USDS and as an outsider to government tech, they both looked the same to me. But that makes totally sense to me now, sounds like with the different funding and offices they work on slightly different projects and problems then but still tech.

Plus I remember at one point Obama was talking about duplicate agencies/programs and consolidating them. Then Trump talks about "cutting the fat", but I do see how being separate in this case actually seems like it helps.
Instagram’s web server runs on Django in a multi-process mode with a master process that forks itself to create dozens of worker processes that take incoming user requests.

So this is all a workaround for Python's inability to use threads effectively. Instead of one process with lots of threads, they have many processes with shared memory.
> Zuckerberg has more than enough resources and respect to defend himself.

Are you implying that he's going to hire PR people to police reddit and hacker news comments? I think that would just make the PR situation worse. It's actually very hard for a rich guy to defend against these kind of attacks because people want to believe you're a bad guy.

The Hilary email server one to start.

Your (I assume your, since your username matches the site) visualization shows a tree, and reads as there being 31800 wiped emails, of which 12200 were later found, and of those 2800 were work related. I'll quote FactCheck.org, one of the sources you list on your site:

>There is no evidence to date that work-related emails were intentionally deleted. ... In his July 5 press conference, Comey said “like many e-mail users, Secretary Clinton periodically deleted e-mails or e-mails were purged from the system when devices were changed.”

Your visualization states that the FBI found emails that Clinton wiped. This isn't the case (or at least, the FBI doesn't believe this is the case).

The racial killing one is misleading, although I'll grant you not explicitly false, just heavily misleading. Specifically, your use of percentages is badly phrased and could be seen to push a misleading narrative.

If I hover over raw, I see "6546 blacks killed by blacks". This is a true statement. If I hover over percentages, I see "92.9% of blacks killed by blacks". This is obviously not true, since it would imply that every black person was killed this past year, and 93% of them by other, now dead, black people, a ridiculous assertion. Instead, what you should state is "Of the ~7000 black people killed last year, 92.9% were killed by other black people". That's the true statement.

I don't claim this is false though, because it was obviously just a formatting mistake, which I hope you'll amend now that I've informed you of it.

It seems to me however, that you are trying to include something percentage based to imply that you're normalizing by population. That is, according to the census bureau, there are about 39 million black Americans, and about 224 million white Americans (I rounded both to the nearest million, which was up in both cases).

That means that a black American had a 258/39,000,000 chance of being killed by police, while a white american had a 666/224,000,000 chance.

Or in other words, 6.6 in every million black Americans was killed by police, and 2.97 in every million white Americans was killed by the police.

To put it another way, you're normalizing within groups instead of across groups, and this leads to a practically useless set of numbers that you can throw at people, but don't have any practical value. So even if you do change your formatting issue, it would be better if you showed the across group normalization, instead of what you currently have, which isn't a valuable piece of data.

Edit:
For someone who is quick to claim others are making mistakes "its all about the trendline" and "I'm tired of people making the current year being the hottest into something its not", I would expect better work honestly.
Because discrimination rates are overwhelming and blind hiring could provide equal opportunity. It's not just me. But I'm surprised that threads about discrimination like current Oracle thread gain a lot of attention, while blind hiring theme which is the most obvious possible solution, doesn't.

I have a question: I know for sure that my company is going to IPO this year and I plan to stick around to see it happen. By the time it happens I will have about 30% of my options vested which I could choose to exercise.

Is there any reason why it might be advantageous to exercise early? My current plan is just to see how the IPO goes and then consider exercising at that point - it means a lower risk for me because I'll know exactly what they're worth and if they're even worth buying.
Why do they not have a remote work option?
Excited to see Vue doing so well on this list. I have been using it for the last few months at my day job, and I have been pleasantly surprised by it. I have tinkered with React & Angular in the past and I can second that the fact that compared to the other frameworks, getting started with Vue is a lot easier.

The ecosystem around it also quite mature - VueRouter & Vuex are well-tested solutions in case you have a use for it.

Another advantage that it has is its documentation & guides. It is quite exhaustive and easy to follow. My only gripe was that it doesn't go into the details of building a complete "single-page-app" that uses the accompanying tools (vue-cli, vuerouter, vuex etc).

Based on my learnings over the past few months, I have started writing a small ebook that goes over the process of building a full-fledged app.

Then tough luck for him. He should have figured that out before he blew 100 million dollars on it. This "weird land practice" is likely meant to protect native Hawaiian people from being forced out of their homeland which, if this article is accurate, is what Zuckerberg intends to do.

EDIT: I did go looking and a few others are reporting on this. A lawyer representing Zuckerberg claims that Zuckerberg "has no intention of contesting any co-owner who can prove their interest in any of the land parcels." We'll see, I guess.

On the other hand, what he's describing is still the status quo.
They key is the core(abdominal) strengthening. A strong core is essential to everything being in shape.
Barbell training (e.g., presses, squats, deadlifts, etc.) 2+ days per week to the point that you can deadlift twice your bodyweight or more. Get to the point of being able to do 30 pullups in a row.

Running 30 minutes or more 3+ days per week until you can run a 5k in less than 20 minutes. (Any form of cardio is acceptable and has an equivalent distance and pace.)

The above are goals that are achievable for most people given time and not overly complicated training (probably a year or two with competent programming, adequate nutrition, and recovery) and easily maintained once reached until you're quite close to death. They are, to some degree, arbitrary, but represent a good area to target to reap the most benefits without risking injury from training volume.

Our bodies were meant to be used.

(This, of course, doesn't address diet, which is probably more important.)

Is there a historical precedent for those above the peasants, but still below the king, to constantly rationalize and serve as king apologists? I notice an interesting trend with a large chunk of the discussion being centered towards why [rich person's] [behavior] is not [as bad] as you think.

Maybe it's because the king enables those above the peasants to retain that position? It's really interesting, actually. Kind of a (10th-to) last place aversion-like response. [1]

[1] http://www.nber.org/papers/w17234

An interesting quote. Notice how the behavior I describe is actually the opposite of this. It's kind of Stockholm syndrome like, actually (people on the top end, but not anywhere near the top, wanting to maintain the status of those at the top, in hopes of getting their themselves).

> Last-place aversion – and the accompanying lack of support for redistribution – is particularly pronounced when people near the bottom of the distribution have their attention focused on keeping the people below them down, rather than on redistributing wealth from those at the top. [2]

Given that some of the owners don't even know that they have an ownership stake in these properties, I'm not sure that's correct.
I've wondered about this before--what is the meaning of the _worth_ of options for ISO treatment? Suppose you have ISOs for five shares, with a strike price of $1: the company goes public, becomes Berkshire Hathaway, time passes, and the stock is now worth $101,000 per share. You exercise one option and immediately sell one share. Do the other four shares remain ISOs?
Just wondering if you would say the same of people protesting in Hong Kong, Russia, or Saudi Arabia. Should they also "act like adults" and "go out there and put in the hard work?"

Depending on a person's life experiences, it causes them to draw the line at different places. So I don't think it's fair to say those people display "feigned outrage and pearl clutching," while _this_ specific way is the adult way.
Neither of those sounds like an optimization to prevent loss, so what is your point? That even if you are wrong, you can easily make up alternative theories?
I think it's possibly more complicated - there's kind of a 'collective ownership' scheme whereby there are tons of people who 'share' ownership of pieces - many of the titles may be lost, people don't know they've effectively inherited them, some may be owned by deceased who have no identifiable heirs so the ownership is ambiguous etc. etc. etc..
Some of the USDS agency teams do have a remote work option. For example, the Defense Digital Service operates out of the Pentagon, but they have remote folks in Boston, New York, and Colorado.
It might not be the next bubble (rather next decade's bubble), and not as big as the mortgage securities bubble, but I have my eye on siloed social media in general and Facebook in particular.

I don't know exactly how or when the federated/web-of-trust alternative to Facebook will unfold, but people are definitely working on commoditizing this stuff, and doing so in an unassuming way that has the potential to catch major players by surprise when it finally crystallizes. I'm not convinced that any of XMPP, GNU Social/OStatus, diaspora*, or IRCv3 have all the pieces to solve the puzzle, but the direction they're pulling is not a big mystery, and I consider it a very real possibility that a successor to those efforts does to Facebook what HTML5 did to Flash.
Pushups are basically planks where you vary the intensity (with the angle of your body to the ground).

Planks build core strength and the lower back is part of your core.

It is clear that almost no one commenting here has actually read past the first few paragraphs of the article (if that). It is very well written and explain that this is an extremely complex issue.

Property rights are the foundation of civil society. Due to variety of factors, Hawaii has destroyed property rights on some parcels due to degenerate laws and legal customs.

Just consider one point raised by the article: one small parcel has over 300 informal owners who are descended from a Portuguese immigrant who bought the land over 110 years ago and that "individual ownership fractions range from about 1/7 (about 14 percent) to 17/333,396 (less than a one-hundredth of 1 percent)."; when everyone owns something, no one owns it. This is an enormously complicated legal problem and there are no simple answers for how to resolve it.

Also, it would be silly to assume that we didn't have a database of "country from" for immigrants or visitors. "Muslim" is not a country, it's a religion, so you'd need some serious behavior profiling for that -- probably FB/Google are ones you should be after.

It might be that MIO is a good epoll abstraction, but in Go you don't have to care wether your code blocks on IO or if it's computationally intensive and requires a separate, costlier thread. You just spawn a goroutine. Go's runtime does the rest.

And that for me that is the way I want to do concurrency and parallelism for pretty much everything I'll ever write.
Of course if all banks do that, how is society to deal with this pit/failed neighborhood?
Oxfam's report [1] on 62 people accumulating more wealth than half the world's population combined

For example, in Rust, it will stop you from accessing the value protected by a Mutex after the lock is freed, and do so at compile time, even through function calls, pointers hidden in data structures, etc.

Another example: I can take a value and mutate it locally, then pass it immutably to a number of threads which use it to compute some results, and once they are all complete, I can mutate the data structure again. If I try to write mutation code before all the threads are re-joined, the compiler will tell me that I can't mutate while there are outstanding immutable borrows. At compile time, at no runtime overhead or locking.

That's fair. My question was fairly rhetorical, and a bit flippant.

We all have different requirements. I can understand that threading may be important to some, but feel that ignoring users and consistent notification defaults are on the same level.

In fact, seeing as how notifications are already implemented, I see the inconsistency (which has caused me to miss important messages on multiple occasions) as a bug, which should take precedence over a new feature.

But still, clearly many feel differently, and that's OK. :)

It hears like, "IDE is good for fast feedback in some domains. "
If someone saying that IDE is only suitable for GUI application but not the software he is writing, he probably means that "look at me, I am the old school tough guy." It's about the people dislike the tool but nothing about the domain.
Some of these pieces of land have hundreds of owners. In this case one of the owners has an interest of less than a one-hundredth of a percent. Most of the owners do not even know what they own. The legal fees to establish who has a fractional interest in the property would outweigh the value of the property normally for each individual owner, but with Zuckerberg footing to bill to find out the family tree all of the owners will benefit.
You'd have to do a lot of flow analysis.

The first step would be to make everything const that can possibly be const. Const stuff can be borrowed non-mutably. Then make all variables have as narrow a scope as possible, even if this means putting in more bracketed blocks. Variables which are not initialized at declaration should be combined with their first assignment whenever possible.

Then you have to analyze what can have single ownership and what can't. Non-single-ownership data has to be refcounted. That makes the borrow checker happy, but may result in excessive refcounting if the analyzer can't track usage through complex code.

Pointers need to be analyzed for usage. If there's no pointer arithmetic, it can become a Rust reference, maybe with a "Some" if it can be nil. If there's pointer arithmetic, the pointer is going to have to be represented as a reference and a subscript.

You need a standard C library in Rust, with Rust safe equivalents of all the string functions.

It's a big job, but not impossible. It might be a marketable product.
A lot of these people aren't even living, and some of the cases even have the support of descendents/relatives. It seems most of the owners don't even know they own the land, and this is less "suing to force sale" and more "this is how land sales are done in Hawaii due to legacy property ownership."

Having read the entire article, it doesn't seem a single Hawaiian involved has a problem with their land being "taken away". Maybe they just didn't quote those people, however it seems like this is all pretty legitimate.
