You're making the argument for medical licensing, not the argument for single payer. People don't know which doctors are quacks so the government has to step in. But money is a different question -- if we required doctors to provide prospective patients with a standardized price schedule it would be trivial for patients to see which doctor charges $100 and which charges $200.

If you have government or insurance pay for everything (and then pay everyone the same amount) the buyer still doesn't know which doctor provides the best care, but now doctors have the incentive to provide no more than the bare minimum care because they aren't allowed to charge any more for better quality/convenience/atmosphere for the same procedure.
That means it's compatible with all currently shipping iOS devices. iOS 10.3 just entered beta, though, so it'll be a few weeks before it's the shipping, released version.
It's a great opportunity for those automating. I'm totally for automation as it creates wealth and I think is good for humanity in the long run, but people suffer from automation (losing jobs, homes, provision for their families) in the short term. People suffering from automation is a major reason why Trump was elected. It's highly insensitive to not be aware of the pain that is caused by automation by technologists like us.
This is different than every Presidential transition of power, how?

It's the aims of the control, and the utter brazenness with which the new administration attempts to manipulate facts and reality in general that are different.

There's never been an administration (well, maybe in the 19th century; but I mean, not since the dawn of modern journalistic reporting) that blatantly and transparently lied about such publicly known and immediately fact-checkable things as crowd sizes on inaugural day.

I don't see what's Orwellian about it.

This morning the press secretary asked you -- yes, you -- to not see anything wrong with the fact that President still believes that "millions of people voted illegally" in the last election. And that he has "studies and evidence" on which he bases that belief.

You don't see anything Orwellian about that?
Exactly - I want to be able to do something like this for a year or two max, then get out.
> What would have a value is getting rid of the need to be in traffic at all, no matter self or not self driving car you use.

That has value too, but it's a lot less likely than self-driving cars for the foreseeable future. Plus, even if we grant that not having to be in traffic has value, that doesn't mean that not having to do the driving doesn't also have value. They both do.
That chemical spill was a disaster caused by an accident when the EPA was trying to manage the wastewater from a gold mine. The wastewater was created by unregulated gold mining in the 20s. Trump wants to return us to those days when industry was unregulated and created the pollution that has taken decades to clean.
That's so different from our concept of vision. It would be like watching a web cam that surveils a park, but only refreshes small bits of the screen at a time. You might see a headless woman strolling along, etc

The survival of your app is not my concern.

If apple want a vibrant ecosystem of apps then they can make the changes, but as a user it's not my responsibility.
I'm sorry to hear that. In order to avoid regressions, we have pretty rigorous requirements for patch submissions. Unfortunately this can result in dropped patches, especially in subsystems that no one in particular feels responsible for. We are trying to improve this, and we now ship a MAINTAINERS file that will hopefully help with this, and are also actively spreading patch review responsibilities around. I don't think we're significantly worse than most OSS projects, but that doesn't mean we can't improve.

In terms of getting a patch accepted, your best move is to include tests that prove your change is correct. Explaining how your change fixes an application will also help.
This is truly unfortunate. I can only hope despite Trump's best efforts these agencies continue to do their jobs and protect the public. And if not I guess the next round of thalidomide babies will be named after him.
He didn't win best director because he failed to push the boundaries of what is possible in storytelling and basic cinematography. Take away Avatar's "unbelievable experience" and all you're left with is a very subpar, watered-down Science Fiction rip-off of Dances With Wolves, but with worse acting.

Honest question: do Product owners report up through CTOs usually? I am not even sure how it works at a technology company (where the technology literally is the product).

I guess I ask this because I don't usually think of the CTO defining the product vision.. just the teams and tech to DELIVER the vision as defined by some product folks (obvious there is feedback both ways but..)
HFR and 8k require rewriting the rules of set design, makeup, lighting and post-production for non-documentary work as they expose the artificiality of fictional narrative. Rather than feeling like you're in the movie, you feel like you're on the set, seeing all the fake backdrops, cables, and acne. HD (and 4k) had similar issues, but not to the extent that HFR and 8k does. Although both HFR and high resolutions do work extremely well for sports and nature documentaries where suspension of disbelief is unnecessary, at the moment both are worse for narrative filmmaking using current techniques.

The Hobbit (shot 48fps 5k 3D)had mixed results using HFR. The scenes shot on location with less CGI looked awful (like low budget early 80s BBC mid day dramas) while the green-screen, heavy CG scenes felt like being in a video game (in mostly a good way). Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk (shot at 120fps 4k 3D) looked absolutely horrible, like early HDCam home movies. It was impossible to get swept up into the movie and made an ok script and good acting feel much worse than it actually was.

I do believe someone will crack the code on HFR, but it will first require the right source material (The Hobbit and Billy Lynn's Long Walk Home were not it). I suggest utopian sci-fi or something set in a sterile environment. But even beyond that they have to figure out the lighting, makeup and set-design (and the extra burden HFR and 8k puts on post-production, especially for CGI/VFX).

One element that actually helps make a film feel cinematic is a slight softness to the image. The best looking digital cinema uses on camera filters and/or post-process to help achieve this look that comes naturally from film shot at 24fps.

Younger audiences who've grown up on HD and HFR video games are less bothered by the differences, but audiences usually don't really know what they want until they see it (one reason that early audience feedback is poison to the process).

No one said nag. People seem to be be assuming the worst possible behaviour. Asking once with a "Don't ask again" and "Later" option is pretty standard.

The original post said a popup is annoying enough to deserve a 1-star review. I strongly disagree and if you enjoy free apps, it's one of the few ways to really thank the developer.

The problem with this is that you only have an indirect say in the government; one can't vote if one is priced out of the city.
One counter argument I've considered is industry excitement (I'm a game developer). No one in my network was excited about 3D TVs. No one in my network was excited about the Kinect. Both seem to have failed.

Glad and sad to hear that someone is facing the exact same problems I've had in the past. There are several underlying problems in your situation. It took me a while to find out about all of this. Though now I have a clear vision of the problems. In 2017:

1. Software Development is not fun anymore. It used to be 10 years ago... today it's all about how many resources a company can utilize to implement a solution that has already been defined. All it needs is a set of arms and legs. No more creativity in software development, you don't use your brain.

2. Companies evaluate and hire software engineers based on CS principles (big-O and all the crap we learn at school). In real life, it's all about code architecture, integration, modularity, maintainability, etc. Software Engineers (because of companies like Google) are not operational anymore. Which means, there's no code quality anymore and products go out of the door full of bugs, poorly implemented. Look at iOS and OS X today. It feels like Windows Vista. %80 of your job as an engineer today is to fix all the mess (bugs) versus %20 new features.

3. Companies do not spend any effort in selecting their interviewers. You might come out of FB, google, etc. then get rejected by a small company after the first round because the interviewer asked you something way too specific. Like a bug he or she ran into one day, spent 3 weeks to fix it, thinking it would make the perfect problem for a 30 minute phone interview. If you get the solution in 30 minutes you pass, if not, you're not the right fit for this position. That makes sense right? Hell no.. And that's when you're lucky enough! Someone can ask you to write a program that rotates a matrix in a notepad, using a correct language syntax in 30 minutes. If you don't deliver you're out.

So, because of these 3 underlying problems, people can end up in your situation fairly quickly. This is 2017 and it's getting worse everyday. So the solution is to run away from coding... let the "machines" do it for you. Act now and jump into another field.

Well remember a few years back meeting a local Michigan State University student who started an entrepreneurs group on campus by the name of Nathan Bashaw. That group known as Hackers and Hustlers now exists primarily as a Facebook group containing virtually every Michigan entrepreneur on the planet.

Bashaw's accomplishments have ended up in Techcrunch a few times. Among them helping a friend as the designer of a little site called Product Hunt. Been addicted to Hardbound's stories, just wished they'd get out an Android version so I can read them on my phone. So proud to see a local make good, just wish he'd stayed in East Lansing ;<).
One thing other civilized nations seem to do is fund schools/police at the state/nation level rather than the local level. Funding at the local level entrenches inequality.
Dredd was fantastic in 3d, but it was 90-95% 2d, only exploding to 3d for dramatic effect, particularly in the slo-mo scenes and some of the other set pieces.

new/new[], delete/delete[] are abstractions around *alloc/free. That's not really under discussion, that's what they are. So when you talk about the ability to build abstractions around malloc, you're also talking about these operators in C++.

You may not like that they tend to be very thin abstractions, but they are abstractions, and the point is that the idea of building abstractions around malloc isn't new and certainly isn't unique.

You said:

>> You can build (or use, from the stdlib) safe abstractions over malloc that have the same performance.

While in defense of the statement:

>> Rust contests the claim that you actually need to do pointer arithmetic and stuff often in systems languages. You need to do it a bit to implement your abstractions, maybe, but it is not the first tool you should need to reach for.

This is presented as something unique to rust, which isn't even close to the accurate. This is why I called it a strawman. No one, not even kernel developers using C, are incapable of building abstractions around malloc to make it easier/safer to use.

The rest of what you say is inconsequential in my opinion. This isn't about C++, this is about your implication that building abstractions around malloc is something new or novel about Rust. It isn't. Not even the idea of safety around malloc is new, new[]/delete[] are themselves abstractions intended to make it less error prone to create/destroy contiguous blocks of memory.

That doesn't even get into the smart objects and RAII which have been around for a very very long time in C++.

None of this is new to Rust, and I think it's a bit disingenuous to imply that it is.
Functional Programming in Java 8

Origin story?
I was using Skia in Firefox on Linux for a while already. It works OK. I also force layers acceleration, since it still blacklists Mesa it seems.
Hell, I got 8 FPS on Ultra on my 2013 Air (that's on Firefox 52.0, though). The Firefox 52b UI feels much snappier than the 51b UI, for some reason, which is fantastic, because my main annoyance with 51 was the sluggish UI. The whole browser would freeze while one tab was loading.
We're moved to shipping new web developer features twice a year. That's not near as often as Chrome but still a big improvement to once a year, solely with the major OS releases.

Stop projecting. Animal conservation was a hugely popular movement in the late 19th and early 20th century in the United States. John Muir and Guy Bradley were national heroes, and those are just two that we remember today. Roosevelt's environmental policies received wide public support. Campaigns against hats made out of birds grew so large and so quickly that this almost-universal fashion trend ended entirely and for good by the 1920s (http://www.npr.org/sections/npr-history-dept/2015/07/15/4228...), something that hasn't happened today with anti-fur and anti-ivory campaigns.
Ask HN: Name an app for anonymous text-based group therapy
Our mission is overcome barriers surrounding mental healthcare by harnessing technology to connect individuals anonymously to networks of peers who can relate.

What We Do: We have built a mobile application for text- and voice-based group therapy. Through our mobile platform, users can tap into a support group with a profile anonymous to other users and receive peer support from others going through similar issues. Patients can receive text-based support 24/7 in tailored group chats of 5-7 peers, with the clinical structure provided through scheduled VoIP conference calls with a therapist.

We discovered early on that anonymity allows users to speak what is on their mind without fear of judgment, but as seen by the behavior of “Trolls” on social media sites such as Reddit and YikYak, anonymity has a malicious side. Since it is not feasible for a moderator to review every user interaction line-by-line in real time, we developed natural language processing algorithms to assist group moderation. This algorithm automatically detects phrases that are indicative of suicidal or malicious intent, immediately triggering human intervention.

Our startup currently needs a name that matches our core focus
>Group / Community modality of therapy & support
>24/7 Anonymous (i.ie stigma-free) help to build people up
>Mental health which is a highly emotional topic

Thanks so much, in advance, for your help
We assume the worst behavior because that's what we observe.

If you only ever ask once, don't you lose out the next time you release a new version and all the reviews get reset? The standard seems to be to ask for every new version, which is a major pain in the behind.

Speaking only for myself, I don't one-star any app just for asking once. I only do it to repeat offenders. I'd prefer never to be asked, but if it's just once, it's easier to just dismiss it and get on with things.
Why the pedantry? C# is my day job - I'd love to be able to use options but I would have a hell of a time getting it cleared.

Your quote also omitted checked exceptions, which is another reason why it's easier than me to write robust code in Java than in C#.
>"the current conservative movement is heavily ideological"

The current Democratic establishment is also heavily ideological. Aside from a few outliers like Bernie Sanders, a lot of the Democratic rhetoric is built up around identity politics. You don't have to look far to find it, but to give you one example, listen to how much this DNC vice chair candidate hammers home the 'diversity' message:

https://youtu.be/Jjs87Y2F_FA?t=5m19s
As it turned out, more flexibility led to devs writing code that others actually struggled to understand.

This is what happens in almost every language. Niftyness and the prospect of impressing your coworkers distorts the cost-benefit calculation. This is in addition to the true costs appearing months or years after the code is written, involving the interaction of complex factors, like increased cost of debugging.

"Clever" should be regarded as a limited resource. Also, the shop should encourage a culture where "clever" with regards to making code easier to understand should be valued above all else.

It is incredibly appropriate for the security services to state suspicion/evidence of foreign maleficence. (If it's true.. if it's a political suggestion.. they should be punished for propaganda) Although, Wikileaks has been nothing but consistent in stating it wasn't rush that gave them the leaks.

It is fine for NPS to report occurrences. However, it was not fine for them to make a comparison of inaugurations.

The offices of the government should and always should remain neutral. They should be judged on doing their job properly. Should the EPA pretend to be Milo on how they think that Trump's/Rep party's ignorance on Global Warming is bad? No they should be advising us on upcoming, and current threads, showing superfund cleanup efforts, creating effective change, etc.

It's hard to judge an organization correctly when it's trying to play politics. When you're wrestling with a pig, you're going to both get dirty, but in the end the politican likes it.
The money she collected from the lottery ultimately represent a call option on someone's future labor. After the lottery that call option has been handed to a single individual who may never make that call in her lifetime. The effect is similar to the coal mining town's company store where you can only buy what they sell at the price they set.

The effect is to concentrate economic activity in specific sectors where banks are willing to lend which means the economy is less flexible overall.

An economy with $1B of debt and $1B in savings spread over 10,000 people is going to be more diverse and resilient than 9,999 people who have $1B in debt and one person with $1B in savings invested in housing and car loans.

The best outcome would be if she invested in new equity in a company that created a positive ROI in excess of what the lottery ticket buyers would have produced. Anything else is a net negative.
