>Some people are in fact better than others.

Is this not true? Humans aren't equal. Some people are tall and others short, some are smart and others aren't, some are talented in certain ways and others in different ways. We can't all swim like Phelps and assuming you're a coder, Phelps probably can't code like you. There's nothing wrong with that. I think majority of human beings have something distinct that they can offer and what differentiates how successful one becomes is the graft one puts in. There's never been a greater time to showcase one's talents if sufficient effort is applied.

>They are, have always been, classist

Going back to my earlier point; we aren't equal. Some people will have the will to put in more time, money and effort. This naturally leads to class distinctions and a natural order. You want to entrust a company's leadership, for instance, on the most qualified individuals, not just anyone for the purposes of egalitarian sentiments. If this is the case, you MUST admit that people are different and that some are more qualified than others. This is not to say that one class should act in ways that would harm any other class.

As for the OPs submission, I don't agree with and sort of state or federal intervention. To me, it is wrong. Market forces should indeed determine what gets adopted as an energy source, be it coal or renewable.

Here's my translation as a Chinese native, though I'm no technical expert.

Companies that provide IDC, ISP, CDN services, without authorization, are prohibited to set up or lease connections (including virtual private networks), to conduct business operations across borders.

I guess it means if you're a ISP etc, you're not allowed to sell VPN services without authorization.

It says nothing about individuals purchasing VPN services from foreign providers.

It's nonetheless a chilling sign that they're restricting VPN access, which is consistent with the overall tightening of internet control that's been going on for quite a while.

It comes as no surprise though, given 2017 will see the Party's 19th national congress. A lot will happen to make sure the internet does absolutely nothing remotely similar to what happened in the Middle East in 2010.
Right? Why wouldn't the router companies include this somehow in their designs if it actually improved performance?

Because it's illegal, is why.
Babel fish Cool.
Metadata includes the time. And for the internet (as opposed to phones) they trace the whole routing through the net of each message to be sure they have the real origin, and then store that. There's a reason NSA buildings are so big.

The problem with Radiology is

1. If a tumor is incorrectly identified (and it happens a lot) no one realizes it until much later. In many cases the radiologist never knows what the outcome of the detection was. The patient could have been unnecessarily operated, put on year long drug schedule for no reason etc. Unlike anesthesiology where the results of any action are more or less in your face.

So all these AI startups are going to be training on very incomplete data.

2. More detection more profit.
There is no incentive to minimize false detections. The entire system from the radiologist, to the doc/hospital visits, to surgeons, to pharma, to the equipment manufacturers from false detections. Nobody is getting paid to reduce false detections.

So all these med AI startups are going to do quite well for themselves whether they actually benefit the public or not.
Of course to everything. Doesn't mean any of what I said isn't true or spot on the mark. Everything I said still holds and because people have bias, it's even more important we talk facts and why's. It's never black and white, but understanding context and why sure helps us navigate the gray.

And, to answer directly, yes, I can imagine things that would make me trust Trump. I can also imagine things that he would do that would further erode trust. Yes to both those with Obama (as it played out over the 8 years he was in office).

I honestly don't know what we are arguing anymore. This thread started with the TPP I guess? I don't know.
Leaves me wondering if I'd be shooting off my little toe or my whole foot!

Might be fun to show pythonic equivalents for the ones that are relatively easy to make pythonic. You might discover some useful pythonic functions along the way.
Maybe so. Probably so. Most people. But I'm having a difficult reaching the bottom of the binary declarations up-stream. Commenter #1 said, essentially, "Loving work the most is key". Commenter #2 responded (I summarize): "Nuh uh."

I don't think anyone said anything about 100+ hours/week. I was hoping that commenter #2 might appear and give us some deep insights, but that appears to have been a bridge too far...

I don't have a 9~5 working for the man, but there is very little that happens during my waking hours that I wouldn't classify as related to work. I'm fortunate that this is not one task, so it doesn't weigh on me like fighting with a C compiler while sitting under florescent lights in a cube farm might. That's kind of work is fine - I like that too - but I couldn't do it for more than about 70-80 hours/week.
>You shouldn't downvote just because it doesn't fit your narrative.

Get used to it. Folks on HN often downvote anything that's counter-liberal. I post my Austrian views a lot and I get downvoted a lot.

Voted you up BTW.
As a fellow Canadian non-resident I get this all the time too. The reason is because if you are returning there are tax and duty implications - e.g. the car your probably driving needs to be imported. When I moved back a few years ago (only to leave again) I had to have a slew of returning resident paperwork so my stuff could come duty free.
He was definitely in over his head. The constant vacations and 333 golf outings are telling imho. Major props to him for keeping us out of a large scale war though.

"someone with a few years of real world experience put them in charge of a massive org" is objectively not Trump. However you want to cut it, he has an adult life of real-world experience doing exactly that.

To me the deal breaker is ads. I think as a society we have begun to grow out of ads, I personally cannot stand them. I can only just tolerate the 5 second YouTube ads.
Now that net neutrality is history doesn't it seem like netflix (and by extension Amazon) extremely vulnerable to the lack of competition in the ISP space in the US?

Google at least had something of a workaround with their various efforts to provide access, but I don't see how they are going to circumvent the tollbooths which are popping up on the last mile.

$70, and $60 of that is buying Hue/Alexa functionality that would require other Hue and Alexa stuff to use it (so more money), which I don't have and don't want. Plus it's LED, and it's not easy to carry around.

I just want a 4 watt incandescent nightlight light bulb (or similar) on a small mount with a handle or grip of some kind, the ability to stand up on its own, and battery power. Should cost $10 or less, if it exists.

Are non-human players allowed to play?
Both the individual and business master files are still written in IBM mainframe assembly language, and are circa 56 years old. See the table on page 4 of this PDF for a list of the oldest systems in operation:

https://oversight.house.gov/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/2016-...

Number three on the the list is The DoD's Strategic Automated Command and Control System, which runs on "an IBM Series/1 Computer—a 1970s computing system—and uses 8-inch floppy disks". No biggie; it just "coordinates the operational functions of the United States’ nuclear forces, such as intercontinental ballistic missiles, nuclear bombers, and tanker support aircrafts."

Ask HN: How important is getting Grades than Actual Learning?
Hi, My name is Subhojeet and I'm a student at VIT University. I have loved computers since I was 11 and have done numerous projects.

I have created games using Unity Engine and designed plugins for other developers to help in game development. I earned a revenue approx $8000 from my plugin.: www.bornfrelabs.com

I am also interested in the field of Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence,and have done MOOC courses to gain knowledge in the same. I've done a few AI projects in GitHub: www.github.com/subho406

However being in an Indian college I see most of my friends studying only for grades. They don't have much of knowledge on how the actual thing works but manage to get good grades in examinations. I spend most of my time learning new stuffs and do not like rote learning and get average grade in examinations.

I'm worried that whether marks is really important for becoming a good Computer Science Engineer and working in a top company.

Am I doing enough to reach my goal? Or am I wasting my time doing external courses and projects and should I concentrate more on marks?

Being in a not so good college will I be ever able to match with professional developers and solve real world problems?

I feel we are starting to lose the plot. The problem isn't about learning another language or which to use next. Instead it is about how to solve and represent complex problems and systems in code.

Any language is a means to an end, not the end itself.

Focusing on languages and language constructs is of value to those in academia and those working solely in the domains of computing and computer science. For the rest, it is the equivalent of navel gazing, the equivalent of focusing on grammar, when the task is authoring a novel.
Is there a reason we can't have both?

It's not actually possible to solve it the other way anyway. It's not 1929 anymore. Modern construction jobs require trained workers with trade licenses who demand middle class salaries and benefits. That is a lot more expensive per-person than a UBI.

So if you have a legitimate project like that, go hire some of those people and do the work. But what about everybody else?
Thank you!

We are planning to make that work soon :)
Dynamic Distributed Dimensional Data Model (D4M) [pdf]
I wonder what would happen if by some bizarre twist of fate they accidentally nuked Florida? As in, same scenario but someone forgot to take a nuclear warhead off first.

Even if it was a demonstrable accident, a stupid number of people would still die. Would America be somewhat obliged to retaliate, even if just to show the rest of the world that they don't have a free pass to pull off an 'accident' of their own?

If anyone wants to turn this into a book, I'll buy it!
I wish their streaming catalog was better, I can never find movies I really want to watch so I still get blu-rays because it actually has a lot of content.
I'm not sure about today, but at least a year ago, there's still a lot of small/private ISPs selling _private networks_ with _global_ internet access, the notice itself sounds like the Ministry is trying to reform the businesses like this. There's a good reason (other than censorship) to do so because the market is a real mess and most of the bandwidth used by them wasn't acquired from a _proper_ way.

I'm glad to see Python getting the same attention as other modern package managers. This is all great work!
As much as I like Forth, it isn't the only player in the restricted memory arena. Several models of the Commodore PET came with 32kb of RAM, and 18kb of ROM. Here are some that reflect similar requirements.

uLisp [0], 2kb of RAM, and 32kb to store the interpreter in. You can write programs at the REPL, and burn them into the EEPROM.

TinyBASIC [1], since dead, is a port of the version of BASIC that used to run on the Altair 8800, which was an even more constrained system than most PETs! Altair BASIC could run on 4kb of RAM.

Python-On-A-Chip [2], is a subset of Python. At a guess, from the supported platforms, it can run on around 2kb of RAM.

iArduino [3], is a C interpreter that can run in 2kb of RAM.

MicroPython is looking to come to the ESP8266 [4], which is much, much bigger at 512kb. Which basically makes it the fattest of these, and impossible to run on something like the PET.

Bitlash is a completely new language [5], and can run on 2kb of RAM, and takes up surprisingly little storage space.

All of these languages offer at least a REPL, as well as compatibility with a wide range of libraries, and most have at least traceback and exception support.

This is not to say Forth is a bad choice! It works great in tiny memory, with better support for a full language specification than many other languages.

But not everyone wants a Forth... And there are plenty of choices out there.

The nice thing about Python is that it's intuitive and feels natural. To that end, this syntax for defining functions is nice, and I would love to see it implemented in native Python:

f(x) = x^2 + 1

But most of the other ideas are less intuitive than their native counterparts. For example, I think that the native form:

3 in [1,2,3,4,5]

is clearer than:

[1,2,3,4,5] /contains/ 3
Earth Day 1970 was the largest protest across the whole world, at 20 million. (http://www.earthday.org/about/the-history-of-earth-day/)

This one will definitely be in the history books, though.

It's not illegal per se, if you adjust transmission power accordingly. Router manufacturers generally don't use yagi because it's directional, requiring aiming, unlike omnidirectional dipole antenna. Modern wifi stations have much more sophisticated ways to increase range than passive antenna designs.

This makes the antenna more directional. It increases the range in one direction while decreasing it in every other direction, so I'm not sure how well this would work for most people without relocating the router/AP.

That being said, it's a clever bit of engineering.

Try a Polycom. You can usually get good deals on used phones.

Ultimately, the quality mostly depends on who is running the voip system. I have a fancy pants Cisco phone on my desk with a premium headset that combined costs as much as a nice laptop. But it sounds like a turd, because our network folks want to save precious bandwidth. The phone itself can do HD audio and all sorts of fancy things.

The headset is easy -- just spend more. Find a Jabra or Polycom that integrates with your phones hook and volume controls. Good ones are $200. The one I have has ridiculously long range and good sound.

For anybody who uses use Flux, this is basically like that but for my home. Since I'm prone to SAD-like symptoms, I keep it set on summer time: the lights come on dim and red at 6 in the morning, gradually brighten to a high color temperature white during the day, and fade during the evening, going completely out at 10.

I thought the main benefit would be waking gently in the morning, and that's fine. But really, the best part is the dimming light in the evening. I gradually get tired and go to bed easily; I sleep a solid 7-8 hours every night. Like you, I'm generally well-rested and productive. My mood is also more even, and I've had little or no seasonal melancholy. I've also kicked caffeine and don't miss it.

I recommend it highly.
