This is one of the reasons why people in Australian were explicitly concerned by the now dead Trans-Pacific Partnership.

All I could think as I read the postmortem was "I hope YP is doing okay". We've all been there, and I hope you're doing okay!
I suspect it's economic. The faster they can reach a diagnosis, the more patients they can see, the more money they make. It certainly pays to shop around in order to find a doctor that you are comfortable with and then stick with them for life.
The higher the abv, the higher the pressure on yeast, yes. But from what I can tell, at least by the time brewers were recording their recipes using hydrometers, beers up to around 10% were very possible.

For instance, Brew Your Own references some strong stout beers made in 1868 (recorded by a "G. Amsinck") here. (http://byo.com/bock/item/1623-when-stout-was-stout)

I plugged the OG (original specific gravity) and FG (final specific gravity) into a specific gravity to alcohol calculator, these are the results:

Dublin Stout: OG: 1.092, FG: 1.019 (ABV: 9.6%)
Treble Stout: OG: 1.096, FG: 1.031 (ABV: 8.0%)

This is not typical -- the Dublin stout is more like a strong export style. Ray Daniels in "Designing Great Beers" provides both more references from G. Amsinck as well as a table derived from "The American Handy-Book of the Brewing Malting and Auxillary Trades" (1908). For more common "porter", the ranges was more typically, say OG: 1.06 FG: 1.02 (about 5% roughly).

Ray Daniels' book likewise references historical Scotch ales similarly. At the high end, massive Scotch ales were present in the nineteenth century (with OG in the 1.120 range, FG in the 1.050 range, and an ABV of 9%). Also more common Scotch ale too.

It is true that by modern standards many of these beers would be relatively sweet, not as fermented.

I personally would guess that even without pure cultures, if you used a fairly simple and probably even known technique back then -- make a big beer, and put that big beer on top of the yeast cake of a finished small beer -- 10% is pretty doable. (The 20+% some craft brewers can go for, however, is probably not. :) )
You mean the 18650 cells.

I'm not sure if Tesla still uses them (they certainly did in the beginning), or whether they've switched to some proprietary format by now.

EDIT: They still use the 18650, but plan to switch to a bigger format for the Model 3:

That question matters if you want to gauge the chances for a successful appeal in court.

Whether completely upending the lives of longterm residents without any prior warning is something that should be allowed to happen in a country is at least in part a moral question, and surely the ACLU is well within it's rights to answer that in the negative; nor, I dare say, would that answer seem very foreign to the average decent person.
Seems to be a truncated version of worth a look.
While I'm both an avid user of e-cigarettes and I'm not eager to use them for harm minimization, their banning would be deeply concerning to me. It has not been demonstrated that they are a health risk, and it is vanishingly unlikely their health profile is anywhere near that of combusted tobacco, so banning it would amount to a dogmatic fear of nicotine.

Which again, might not be so terrible given how little is understood about the drug. It can certainly be life-destroying if you smoke to get it.
You've been reading fake news.

He never said Mexicans were rapists. He said some illegal Mexicans were rapists. Which is provably true. It's not opinion. Its also true that 80% of women crossing the border get raped, so something bad is going on down there and we're enabling it.

For the Mexican judge, its standard to dismiss a judge for having a bias in the case. 100% normal. And given how the media construed Trumps statements on Mexicans, and how he wants to build a wall, and how the Mexican judge is a member of La Rasa, you don't think she might have a bias?

I could go on but I won't. I've lost all respect for the media and the left in general. They can call me racist, sexist, I don't care anymore, because I've seen the lies they repeat and the bullying tactics. If the left thinks they can get back their credibility next election, they will be in for a big surprise.
"the people in the crowd who actually care about civil liberties are too busy enjoying the sweet, sweet liberal tears to do anything for a few more weeks at least."

This is a contradiction. If you'd rather enjoy the defeat of your enemies, you don't actually care about civil liberties.

This is what's actually wrong with America: the fact that politics has devolved into a simple team sport, where the only goal is to win and have the other team lose.
And it's a regressive tax that mostly punishes the poor for smoking. Not to mention the ridiculous prices of alcohol. It's no wonder meth is exploding in popularity.

It's an easy way to evaluate the real priorities of politicians though. If cost of living issues were really their number one priority then these sin taxes would be the first to go.
As a German-Australian, and ignoring that this is anecdotal, but I've often noted the big difference in levels of smoking when I visit German cities vs Australian ones.

Smoking just isn't popular in Australia among my age group (late 20's), where it is still way more common in Germany.

Young people just don't seem interested in Australia outside of having a smoke with a beer at a party, it's very much perceived as something poorer people do, and is not considered classy at all.

So yeah, compared with other countries that I've visited, smoking is seen quite differently here and seems like its well on the way out. It'll be interesting to see if it rebounds in future generations though.
Sessions are typically 3-5% ABV.

Not sure there is anything commercially marketed that is under 3% ABV, really.
a user for using a repository as some form of CDN, resulting in 47 000 IPs signing in using the same account

I'd be interested in how this occurs. Simply linking a raw file in a repository would surely not require a sign in. Did someone come up with some way of automatically using credentials on a download link?

47 000 simultaneous users suggests that wouldn't be a small project that did so.
I had a great manager a little while back who said they had an expression in Spain:

> "The person who washes the dishes is the one who breaks them."

Not, like, all the time. But sometimes. If you don't have one of these under your belt, you might ask yourself if you're moving too slow.

If that didn't help, he would also point out:

> "This is not a hospital."

Whatever the crisis, and there were some good ones, we weren't going to save anyone's life by running around.

You can install on your own phone straight from Xcode. You don't need to pay Apple for that.
Its mostly babysitting. You can divide the effort to raise a child as nursing, teaching and babysitting. The parent is most invested into doing it, but he cannot get very good as a nurse or a teacher (if its not his profession) and babysitting is very low value. You definitely cannot spend 8 hours a day teaching a baby things, and most of the things you teach are quite low skilled (exercise, playing, reading, etc).

If the parent can earn a lot more income by delegating responsibilities he will do it, or rather, most will do it.
For the same reason patients aren't empowered to make their own medical diagnoses. Trained teachers can be much more effective than untrained parents.
The form will not be legally binding, so the premise of your site is broken.
It's definitely not. Illegal drugs are also much more expensive in Australia than in many other places in the world. There is a growing problem with black market untaxed "chop chop" tobacco here. The tax increases have made it more and more attractive to both importers and smokers.
Every hydroelectric is a specific project and the waterfall size and volume usually determines the type of turbine (pelton, francis and kaplan are the most popular from high to low) .. the denomination of pumped storage systems is applied when a reversible turbine is used, so no standard hydroelectric with a reservoir will be called pumped system, those are called impoundment. If you abuse nomenclature could be a open-loop pumped system.

The very source you linked says he said "Just avoid holding it in that way".

So he did not say what you said ipsis verbis, and he certainly did not say "You're holding it wrong". That was made up by reddit.
You don't give up rights just because you start a business.
Yeah, the only solution is to test your backups - either automatically or manually through failure.

My small business uses a global network of cheap servers to provide low latency to customers, so we have encountered significant lengthy failures of disk or network once every few months, but hey, we can be damn sure our backups and deploy scripts work because we're forced to restore them all too often.
This is only a practice because people are being tricked into doing it. Also, I'm not too sure you're being cynical. This is the obvious next step to an interview puzzel, isn't it?

* I need to test my employee so I give them a test
* A test isn't code so I give them a coding HW
* The coding HW isn't representative of our work, so...
* I give them a small chunk of my real work.

This is pretty stupid. I've just barely started in the working market and I think my resume is solid enough that I won't mess around with any BS like this and if no one else does then they will finally stop.

There is one proviso (as usual). I'm completely fine with coming in and doing a pair exercise with people if the job requires pair work. I mean, that's not really about the programming at that point (maybe just write a simple web scraper) together with someone you'll actually be working with to see if you can all get along. Crack a few jokes, get some work done, leave with a better understanding of the enviroment. I'd be fine with that but nothing that would take more then 1-2 hr.
> Or leave and work for a competitor. I don't put a gun to anybody's head, unlike various socialist governments.

Only socialist governments put guns to people's heads?

> Note that I work in North America and so my expectation of an employee being able to 1) leave and work for someone else, or 2) leave and start their own company, stem from this.

Yeah, it's not so easy for most of the world's population. Since you seem to be aware this, note that a less obvious element of this fact is that the reason things seem largely not so bad in the US/Europe is due to the large scale extraction of economic value from less developed countries. That power law is now coming around to bite the US/Europe middle class, and Trump/Brexit is the result.

> So what do you call it when the government props up certain businesses (that they prefer) by redistributing my tax dollars thereby shielding them from market forces? I can't think of a libertarian government doing this.

Cronyism? Corruption? This really has little to do with economics but is a political problem. The same thing happens in capitalist and socialist countries.

> And yes, socialism must imply a bigger and more intrusive central management body (aka government) because that's how you "democratize the means of production". You have to enforce such actions with the gun.

Yes because of people like you fighting it... grumble grumble

There are actually a lot of "libertarian socialist" theories out there. It's like a blend of anarchism and Marxism.
For context, I've got 8 years of ACLU emails with quotes like:

> Despite initial assurances that he would veto this outrageous bill, President Obama will now be known as the president who signed indefinite detention without charge or trial into law.
My 1440p 4:4:4 videogame captures at 60 fps come out to about 700 GB per hour, sometimes more depending on the scene complexity. That would fill up a 200 TB array in no time.

I'd record to ProRes or DNxHR if I could, but there's no viable method for doing that on Windows without using an FFMPEG pipeline (which won't do 4:4:4 color sampling with those codecs and simply uses too much CPU at 4:2:2).

Did you notice any major price difference compared to Australia vs Germany? Consider buying a pack of cig's is damn expensive, not mentioning alcohol too here in Auz.
Strangely, just two days after I wrote this, my house mate went out and locked me in the house. I had to climb out the window and unlock the door from the outside.

Because while social smoking helps in terms of meeting other smokers, it's not a big part of our social culture. Drinking (like it or not) is a huge helper socially, sure it can be a crutch in many cases, but in a whole lot of other cases its a huge boon to meeting friends and getting social.

It certainly helped me in the past, and got me through a lot of social barriers.

I'm not saying alcohol and alcoholism isn't a significant problem in many cases, but it has a well deserved social status, which I don't see as going anywhere soon. Smoking has no such status.
Their concerns were misplaced and the outcome lawsuits against the Australian government (they won every time) show how ridiculous the scare campaign about ISDS was.
I actually feel the same way. I wanted to buy a Mini in 2014, to upgrade from a 2012 model, but the new one was no better than the one I had, at least not in the ways that were important to me. My comment was about the psychology of Apple. I do wonder if their engineers don't see Apple computers as containers, as boxes. They abandoned the cheese grater Mac Pros, the most box-like in design (and best for users). Maybe Jonny Ive et al resist the slippery slope of their computers being seen as commodities. There could be wisdom in that. The Apple brand relies on the perception of design virtuosity. But I agree, they should have had more in the pipeline. Let's hope they get back to the drawing board and make up for their neglect.
The toughest curriculum in any AI related MOOC I've seen so far. Just CS228 - Probabilistic Graphical Models is enough to bleed someone's brain. Wish Daphne Koller still taught that course.
A significant rise of the minimum wage would rapidly accelerate the ongoing process of automation making people unemployable.

Already there are swaths of jobs that could be done better by machines but currently it's cheaper to hire a "cheap brown person" as the parent post says by outsourcing it. For example, the manufacture of clothing and footwear which currently employs many millions of people worldwide, mostly in SE Asia. As soon as rising wages pass that barrier and companies pony up for the required capital investments these jobs are never coming back.

There will always be more desires for new jobs/tasks that could be done - but the market price for them will be below the minimum wage, so they will happen only as hobbies.
No, I didn't mean the prequels.
The decision can't be made in isolation. They need to ensure that the extra cost of the drives makes up for the increased reliability - that's not necessarily the case.
Can you share any resources about how to buy/where to find existing side projects that are profitable or at least have potential to be profitable?
The ACLU is much more closely aligned with the Libertarian Party, although they don't officially associate with any political party. They were huge critics of the Obama administration, the "embodiment of the Democratic Party" -- to some people, at least. They've also been huge advocates for Title IX reform on college campuses and opposed restrictions of student expression. It's wishful thinking that they are any closer to the Democratic Party than the Republican Party -- both are enemies of freedom, most of the time.
Except that second hand smoke isn't really that bad.

Socialism = state with social ownership of the means of production
Communism = hypothetical end goal of society where the state "whithers away" and class divisions no longer exist

Note that people describe themselves as communist since that is their end goal and states describe themselves as socialist since they have not ceased to exist yet.
Show HN: Infrastructure as Code (Iac) maturity model – seeking feedback
I'm seeking feedback on Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and a maturity model for it.

IaC typically includes many Hacker News tools of interest (e.g. AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, Mesos) and areas (e.g. agile, devops, lean).

A maturity model is typically a simple assessment for how well an organization is doing in an area of interest.

Here's my work in progress so far-- feedback and constructive criticism is much appreciated.

Can we not use an inverter, convert to AC, step up and use the existing infrastructure for transmission.

Besides, I guess there should be an added advantage to monitoring and using (charge/discharge) the batteries better than letting the user do the maintenance like preventing discharging to zero, temperature etc.

Yes, it may be "easier" for the ACLU to abuse/"reinterpret" the Constitution rather than work to amend it or work within its strict framework... but doing so makes things worse for more people in the longterm.

States' Rights limit the Federal Government from being so powerful that it can more easily violate civil rights... a bigger picture which ACLU should take into account.

Likewise, "legislating from the bench" may have protected some rights of individuals... but, far more often, it has "enshrined", as you say, new Federal powers at the cost of individual liberties.
"Just as much" is a bit of an overstatement considering how primary web browsing is. I mentioned one reason: it's what lets them advertise the battery life for web browsing that they do. Web browsing is a distinctly primary use case for a wide range of people and a fundamental value proposition of the iPhone from day 1.

Another thing that makes browser engines special is that they can be used to build "native" apps. Apple famously banned Flash. But if they allowed you to use any old web engine they could run into the same problems with poorly optimized apps on their platform. So Apple's not just forcing other browsers to adhere to their efficiency-first priorities... it's forcing all apps.
there's this appreciation for programming that many lost when computers became fast.

I certainly think the concerns were misplaced, but wasn't the Phillip Morris case dismissed because they were found to have a lack of standing, having reincorporated in Hong Kong specifically to make use of the ISDS provision? While I can't see how the tobacco companies could prevail in any case, history has yet to furnish us with a proper example.

In the context of cigarrettes, it's easy to see why they banned it first. Cigarettes hadn't been demonstrated to do harm either. I hope though that the ban would be lifted if studies can show that they are not harmful.

My intuition is on your side though, I imagine they are far less damaging than normal cigarettes.
What kind of example are you looking for?

That's something I'm working on, actually. I think matching the top stack item(s) fits well into a postfix stack-oriented language. For example:

TYPE: Tree
| Branch(Tree,Tree)
| Leaf
;

:: depth Tree -> Int ;
: Branch($,$) depth {depth} dip depth + ;
: Leaf depth 1 ;

$ is extract, so the pattern Branch($,$) pops the top of the stack and pushes the 2 members. Types and type constructors have to start with a capital letter, but I like the

: Pattern word definition ;

syntax a lot.
IMHO the pretension by coastal billionaires that they are the "elites" who know what's good for us better than we do ourselves, is part of what the people on Twitter are calling #HowYouGotTrump. Google, for example, usually does one of their cute special-edition homepage graphics on every obscure Muslim holiday and the birthdays of famous Communists, but rarely ever celebrates Independence Day or Easter. Nice way to show how much contempt you have for a large segment of your customers, Google!

I would suggest that founders be a bit more respectful of their employees' and customers' diverse opinions. If you treat people with respect, they might just be willing to listen to what you have to say.
Think about what you're saying more.

Android solution: You own the server. Your server pushes directly to you.

iOS solution: No ability to maintain SSH connections, instead you need to get a 3rd party app to open an SSH connection for you and send you a push notification via an Apple service when a change occurs.

See the problem? Trusting Apple alone isn't an option - Apple doesn't offer a service to send you a push notification for your SSH session. You need to involve a 3rd party.
