Regarding point 3: At 150 modules consuming about 25W each, your LED wall is consuming about 3750W max. An 80" TV will consume about 300W.

Power consumption of the LED wall will, however, be highly dependent on the displayed content. A white screen will consume most, a black screen basically nothing, but displaying only dark images is not exactly what LED walls are usually used for.

The equation is simple: The brighter, the more power you'll need, and an LED wall is, as you say, far brighter.
Perhaps, but I get very little of my knowledge from ads, and probably most of it from non-Irish media, blogs, and similar sources, hence my surprise.

I would suspect the issue is the different supported feature set. While you could send text everywhere, messenger supports webviews, slack has buttons of their own, etc. You could definitely abstract parts of it (both slack and messenger have buttons), but not the total.
I was quoted prices that varied by almost ten times when I was looking for a CT scan.

An independent lab, owned by the head of radiology at a hospital in another County, was $268 USD if paid at time of service, cash or credit card.

He used to have several locations, but the other hospital bought out all the locations near them. And closed them almost immediately.

Remind me how many armored divisions Facebook has, again?
I came up with this one all by myself (which is probably known by some elegant name and has some sophisticated documentation that I'm not aware of) I think it shows representation cant actually work because you cant have boolean logic if multiple "yes" each have to compete with a single "no". Ill keep it simple but the effect gets more dramatical if there are more candidates.

Say, there are 3 candidates and only 1 agenda point: 1 supports the idea and 2 are against it. The later 2 get 33% of the votes each and the first gets 34%. The unpopular idea wins while 66% was against it.

It sure seems like one can get a high degree of control over the results by simply adding candidates until the unpopular idea is sufficiently under represented.

It's like, if you have 100 Bernie Sanders sharing the votes you may never get socialism.
Please read my post above my response as I mentioned these things in more general terms. :) I just meant that the actual card itself worked the same, mostly. You put numbers in an online form, swipe/insert chip, etc.
Thanks for your answer. I have few questions:

>> You might want to look into versioning your resumes. A 'version' column in your ResumeData could be sufficient.

I didn't quite get this. Why do we need to add 'version' column to ResumeData? Lets say when user updates the resume, my intention was to just replace the data accordingly (as now you have told, I might use JSON column and just replace it with the value). In this case why 'version' is required?

And why not storing images as blobs? Any drawbacks?

But thanks for your insights, it really helped me.

It's probably now worth thinking about Facebook more as a giant advertising VC house more than as 'Facebook.com'.

Facebook's main asset is its social graph and cross device map, which only Google currently has anything comparable too.

Any time a new type of app, ad unit or social trend becomes popular (group chat replacing FB groups for instance), they will buy it before it gets traction. Instagram has a much nicer ad unit format than Facebook, and appeals to a more upscale audience.
I think the test was provided by some company. There was nothing magical about it though - part of it looked mostly like an IQ test, and there were math questions and short reading comprehension tasks. It was fairly easy and the biggest difficulty I thought was the short amount of time we had to complete it.

I suspect any reasonable test in that general direction would do the job. I don't think they use it to specifically hire the people who achieve the very best scores, but rather to not hire the ones who perform poorly.

I hate to be negative (well, not really, but maybe a little, since this is free), but I've always found Pixar storytelling to be contrived, cliched and the worst kind of sappy with lame attempts at humor.

So this is more like "Max Martin offers lessons in songwriting" than e.g. John Lennon(or Tom Waits or Jack White or Chuck D. or James Murphy, or whatever unique voice you fancy).
Rail guns maybe, but cannons and guns rely on explosives and play in a very different field than the things mentioned by OP.

I agree essential is too strong, but I think the danger is not "what if they go away", but the fact of (nearly) everybody using them is a problem when that's selectively denied.

E.g. a sibling comment mentions Facebook pages for small businesses: if Facebook went away or stopped offering them generally, that would fix itself within less than two weeks. If the vast majority assumes they can find all businesses on Facebook, but yours isn't because Facebook doesn't like your name or some aspect of your business, that's a long-term issue.

No, he generated "fake" Gameboy Camera images from the full color shots, by applying a crude form of dithering to graytone. I think that's perfectly reasonable.

What I'm saying is I would like to see comparison with a fourth image produced from the first (black and white) image by a batch Photoshop operation. I would guess a suitably tuned application of "brown tint, then selective Gaussian blur, then unsharp mask" would get you pretty close.
Directly: 6. None from radiation.

For example, 2 died because they were smoking a cigarette outside of the wall when the tsunami hit.

The worst exposure outside of the plant was 10 millisievert, or about the same as a CAT scan.

Inside the plant one worker got close to 500 millisievert exposure, or about what an astronaut can expect to receive during a 6 month stay in low earth orbit, or what you receive every 2 years living in Ramsar, Iran (a city where humans have lived -normally as far as is known- for thousands of years).

TLDR: nobody died. Maybe 150 people will die a year or two sooner compared to if there was no incident. 4-5 people may experience more effects. For comparison, solar power (the next safest source of power) has killed more people even during the Fukushima disaster itself. Coal has killed over 100 people in the same time period.

Ask HN: How should I deploy my small-scale PHP web applications?
I run several small, PHP based websites, they mostly reside on Digital Ocean until I feel a need to switch to AWS.

What is a simple workflow for managing code and deployments of code? Do you have private GitHub repos and your web servers continuously check and integrate the master branch? Do you prefer to take the site down manually and move code around by hand?

I imagine everyone has their own flow, it'd be interesting to hear some so I can improve on my lacking methods.
A trivial diamond of computation would be a custom purpose machine, e.g. [0].

Inter-operation between decoupled "small abstractions" and their composed descendants requires either a pre-existing mutual interchange form, or a set of wrappers that provide the same. This is equivalent to simply building on top of that common normal form, which exists, at varying levels of specificity and accessibility, whether one explicitly considers it or not [1]. This, combined with the ultimate CNF still being natural language, because computational semantics are still ultimately evaluated in the context of the human brain, argues for intentionally clarifying and improving that least common computational denominator, in the same way that if one entirely lapses in their recollection of higher synthetic geometry, "begin by assuming a compass and straightedge" is at the least never incorrect.

[0] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13669033

[1] E.g. the cons example in the article is a small abstraction that composes well, at the abstract level, with the cond abstraction for destructuring quoted symbol lists when writing interpreters, but as noted by the author leaks too much of the underlying machine primitives, and thus is an impedance mismatch when seeking performance optimizations, as in a compiler.

Most likely the alternative would be that those people simply visit without washing or using hand sanitizer at all.

Because of TSA, or because of media exaggeration?

Because I've visited the US many times, and it was just fine, a great country, an excellent countryside and nice people (including the occasional jerks).

And the same is true for MILLIONS of tourists that visit the US each year. People here are concerned about things that might or might not happen to 0.001% of travelers or less... It's not like NY for example stopped getting a million or so visitors each month from abroad (12.7 international visitors per year just for NYC).
I think you bring a good point, and it's a shame you're getting downvoted (although it might be because of the tone you use).

But in one of the video, one story artist is talking about her first experience with the lion king and how traumatized she was by simba trying to talk to his dead father. And then I understood one thing:

I always thought that for you to make a long lasting mark into the world, you had to build a castle. But there are other ways: make cute animations targeting kids, but sneakily insert traumatizing sequences.

System linkers are a UNIX thing.

On the majority of other OSes, each programming language used to have its own linker.

This is why although I dislike some of Go's decisions, I am quite supportive of its uptake.

- Bostraped language, with very few dependencies on C

- Runtime library makes direct use of syscalls, instead of taking the easy way and depend on libc

- It has its own linker

- Despite the GC hate and the whole discussion what is "systems programming", people are indeed slowly using for such purposes
But then a competitor comes along, doing the same thing with vastly less complex model and capable of offering cheaper/faster service because of that.
No I don't think a line of credit is the same thing as a credit card, and I don't think you need a credit card to have a line of credit.

You're saying that you can have a line of credit without a card. That's the other way around to how I say it, see? I'm not disagreeing with that one.
I'd argue that this is still my face every time I'm on a rollercoaster, but I feel like I enjoyed it when it stops.

There was a long thread about Julia / Julia Computing here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/julia-users/1zIlXQYb... . Viral said in the first post that "We will respond [to questions] back with a detailed blog post." They answered a subset of concerns on the list, but to my knowledge such a blog post does not exist.

Other than issues I mentioned in that thread, my main ongoing concern is that it is unclear where the boundary between Julia the community project (which includes their non-profit fiscal sponsorship via Numfocus) and Julia Computing, the company. Who owns the Julia trademark? Who owns the julialang.org domain? Who, ultimately, controls the direction of the project?

Ultimately, I want Julia to last for a long time, and for it to remain free software. I get the impression that all the founders want the same thing, which is encouraging. But even more encouraging would be to see the community's governance structured in a way that enforces this.

Because you phrased your answer in an adversary tone (what with neckbeards, people jealous of Swift "taking the spotlight" etc) as if there was some war going on.

I gather you are not an official spokesperson for the Swift team, and thus qualified to make such a call?

This is a departure from the usual blackboard videos of KhanAcademy right? I haven't watched enough of them to be sure.

I've also noticed that Coursera has a load of courses that are not free anymore. So it might explain why Pixar chose KhanAcademy. Is it the last resort for free education?

I'm really sad about Coursera as it was the platform that made me discover cryptography with Dan Boneh. And now I'm wondering if the platform's new spin on monetization is the reason Dan Boneh is not releasing Crypto II.
I guess I have: https://www.freecodecamp.com/

I tried FreeCodeCamp (html & css) ~2 years ago. It was OK. I recommend you to finish the above one (Shay Howe) first, then try FreeCodeCamp. Actually, if you have got your own static web-page projects, you won't need the FreeCodeCamp for CSS & HTML. The kick-start would be enough and "Google is your friend" after that - learn more as you build your own projects.

Good luck.

There isn't anything wrong with you and I'm sorry for my shitty wording. You don't "help" because there's nothing wrong with you. A lot of the programs available to adults on the autism spectrum amount to little more than acting lessons.

I know that the social world is strange, and I understand how judgemental people are. But there are compassionate, understanding people out there who could teach you how to essentially bluff your way through all the weird social interactions we're expected to participate in.

I'd equate this to the movie the Hannibal Lecter movies. I don't think that Anthony Hopkins is a serial killer who likes to eat his victims, but he did a damned good job convincing me that he was. And straight up, I wouldn't let him cook for me...:)

Sex and violence. Every good story has it. I am not referring to the obvious of "having sex and fighting," but every piece of conflict has some element of one or the other and sometimes both. And obviously, that means conflict is essential to every good story.

Nobody wants to watch The Village of the Happy People.

The mundane becomes exciting with conflict.. either physical, emotional or both.
Ask HN: Is Product Management a safer bet in 2017?
AI is moving fast and coding will soon be handled by machines. We, the developers, will lose our jobs. Most of us are pushing features, fixing bugs, etc. Things that don't involve creativity, decision making or business knowledge.

I have a feeling that Product Management will be the next big thing moving forward. Call me crazy - but it seems like a perfect candidate for software "development". All you need is to come up with a set of features and an MVP in mind, then the machines will build it for you.

What do you think? Should we make the switch now?

I think it is a popular misconception that human evolution is a thing of the past. One reason for that is maybe that evolution has been explained as a matter of premature deaths, more than of relative number of descendants. The idea is sometimes articulated as "there are no predators anymore, and medicine saves also those who would otherwise die of illness and accidents"- but of course the opposite is probably true, the fact that we're pretty much all fed and cured is a major driver of evolution today.
Another even more naive misconception about evolution is tied to the idea of "mutants", individuals possessing obvious and possibly extreme characteristics (and their notable absence as a proof of the missing evolution); while in fact evolution is mostly variation in the relative proportion of existing, very subtle differences.
