I use Pinboard for organized reference bookmarks, and Pocket as a dumping ground for anything that seems interesting. Some of it gets moved to Pinboard or deleted, but otherwise I like keeping it there as a record in case my brain decides something from the past is important again.
I think that interactions between - supposedly - consenting business owners and ordinary people at the mercy of those in uniform are not to be compared.

A genuinely curious question; How is this an improvement on pcpartpicker.com?

With them, I can see completed builds and pictures, compare benchmarks and prices as well as restrict builds to specific parameters.
So everything is working exactly as it's supposed to... People voice their opinion to those in power, those in power make a decisions and make their stance known. Are you saying you don't want these people to receive public criticism? Otherwise I'm not sure what there is left. Nothing actually happened, just people exchanging words on either side.
Don't forget... now that person can call those firms and say "Ben Horowitz said we should talk." :)
Yes, that is a much more interesting question. They should be much more valuable, since they represent much more effort than a simple button click. However, you don't really know how genuine a recommendation is. It could be simple payback for someone who gave you a recommendation or some other favor in the past.

You would need some kind of subjective survey on if any prospective employers/recruiters even look at the recommendations and how much weight they tend to give them.

How do you generate an appropriate warning without power ?

And you are assuming Apple can detect a battery failure distinct from say a component along the power supply path that has failed. So the safest solution is to switch off immediately.
deciding who deserves it based on who can afford it, seems even worse.

What's wrong with this? Technology improves and productivity improves. Over time, more and more people are getting better and better healthcare. The healthcare the cheapest insurance available today can buy is better than what the richest had access to 100 years ago.

If premium healthcare were extremely cheap, everyone could afford it.
If you're only considering moving your cursor around and editing text, then Sublime Text probably makes sense, but there's a lot more to Vim than just that. Macros, for example, are a powerful part of Vim that save a ton of time and effort, and aren't readily found in other editors.
Hi ! Thank you for your comment. We do not have any automated product discovery yet - bu we are building something like this. It should be ready in the next month.

There are sensors for battery temperature: my 2011 MacBook Pro appears to have two battery temperature sensors and a battery charger temperature sensor. It's quite possible that in this case the System Management Controller detected the overheating battery and shut down the computer - I'm not an expert on Mac hardware, though.
That's not how physics works.

We've measured the charge of base particles, we know their charge to 8 decimal places. (e.g. for electrons).

There is simply no way for the force of electromagnetism to be different at the scale of solar systems.

Even MOND is a tiny modification to Newtons laws, and only a modification in extreme circumstances.

> you should stop subsidizing marriages involving people who can't or won't have children.

Well, that is what the other commenter is arguing that we already do, at least in theory. The laws are from a different time, so there are many modern-day loopholes for sure, but when you look at the conditions at the time when the laws were enacted marriage would be essentially limited to those who could (to the best of their knowledge) and were willing to have children, intended to create an environment to make having children amiable.

Even divorce law is predicated on the idea that the spouse will stay home to take care of the children. Since that leaves one member of the household without an income for many years, in the event of a dissolution of the partnership one member will be left out in the cold, so to speak, so we created rules to share the proceeds gained in the process to ensure that each party is compensated for their efforts.

I think we can find all kinds of arguments as to why that is flawed in 2017, but if we just stick to the assumption that the subsidy provides exactly the expected outcome: Why does it need to change at all?

A better way to do this analysis would have been to create an extremely sparse matrix with one column for every possible endorsement category with the value being the number of endorsements (normalized). Then try to predict various aspects of coding performance.

What exactly did Singhal do at Google that got him in that situation?
People can change their tune. Greenspan was chairman of the Fed for 20 years arguing for free market the whole time. It was his life's philosophy. Then he testified to Congress after the housing meltdown '08 and said he was wrong. The banks can't be trusted to regulate themselves via the market, and regulation is necessary.

We will face a recession again. Trump will repeal Dodd Frank, banks will start making riskier loans and obscuring them in hidden investment products, and one day someone big enough will pull out, causing the whole house of cards to collapse. And, Republicans and Democrats will do another TARP because the alternative is World Depression II. That is, unless Trump seizes enough power to prevent TARP II.
>... is a 30 minute trip for just a mile of travel. It didn’t matter whether I rode a car, public transport, or walked.

How does it take 30 minutes to walk a mile, unless you're really slow and out of shape, or taking your time (something you shouldn't be doing if you're "commuting")? Any normal person should be able to walk 2.5-3 mph, which means you should be able to walk a mile in 20-24 minutes.

>New York City has built over 1,000 miles in bike lanes... Barcelona has implemented “superblocks” by closing off streets for use as community and pedestrian areas. Copenhagen is planning to make its downtown core car-free within a decade. In short, cities are prioritizing people over cars.

None of these cities are typical of any cities, especially ones here in America. Copenhagen is the most bike-friendly city on the planet, and has been for a long time, so it's no surprise they're aiming to be car-free downtown soon. NYC is unique in the US for its density, but also importantly is that mentions like this always focus on Manhattan, which is only a small part of the overall city. I doubt there's a lot of progress in building bike lanes in the Bronx or on Staten Island, or even in Queens.

The solution to this problem isn't more public transit, which simply does not work in places with lower density (i.e. suburbs) and are too spread out for pre-planned routes to work out well. The solution is Personal Rapid Transit systems like SkyTran.
>How is merely turning off a warning?

It's not, but if it works reliably, it is at least protection against fires while no one is home.

Given the choice, is it better to start a fire when someone is home or out? That's a toughie, but on balance I think it's better when someones home, as there's a better chance for them to stop it or at least evacuate pets and gather important documents and treasures.

All the latest e-readers from Kobo come with Pocket integration (hopefully also going forward) and I can testify that it helps a lot if you get the reading material off the LCD display and off the general internet where I would otherwise also just browse around and bookmark stuff without actually reading anything.
There are various levels of caching, which have very different performance characteristics with different access patterns from multiple cores. Don't dismiss it outright. You can reduce the pressure on the cache coherency protocol by making different tradeoffs.
> the repelling force between them could account for the expansion acceleration in a very simple way.

The electromagnetic force still follows the inverse square law. So if objects in the universe are charged, the effects end up being similar to the force of gravity.

i.e. it's still an inverse square law, and it's still linearly related to the observable mass.

The only way something else is happening is if you use either the dark matter / energy theories, or MOND.

The shorter explanation is that it's naive to think that "off the cuff" ideas from amateurs are better than ideas from experts in the field who have devoted decades of their life to the subject.
Where did they personally attack her? Please provide some quotes from the original article and not the hyperbole in hers.

"scenarios that is not covered by standard procedures" Actually I know people who work in benefits and this is very common. It is entriely up to the claimant to notify the office in change of circumstances and anything else can be considered fraud. Also if you are claiming family benefit then they have every right to ask about your personal circumstances in terms of relationships and if you are living with someone as this determines the amount you can get.

Edit - In her original article she actually admits to ignoring letters from the office. This is a huge mistake.
It's even worse. Many composite packages we get today (cardboard / tin + plastic cover inside and outside) are notoriously hard to recycle in terms of energy and waste produced.

Plus, they leach plastics into food.

Returning to glass would be a huge step forward. I think the key would be get glass cans and bottles refilled in warehouses close to the customer, as it happened before with small producers.

I've been on LI similarly as long... I get some of the ire, but when I see comments like this I wonder if I'm in some extreme minority.

I don't get pelted with a ton of messages - maybe a dozen a month at most, and maybe 1/2 of them are actual ops I could be interested in/are applicable to my skillset. I've had several interviews which originated from a LI message - easily over a dozen, and I may have landed a job in the past this way (can't remember unfortunately). This is sharply contrasted with my experience during the .com days upon graduating college - I would get 2-3 daily calls from recruiters for all sorts of things.

Unsure if it's because I'm older, more skilled, have a note that I'm busy on my LI intro, or what... but I have a relatively in demand skillset (Rails/React dev) and am getting messages for quality leads, even quite a few for remote gigs (I have a note that I prefer remote work).
No, the teachers are idiots who would censor literature "for the greater good".

The people who have a problem with a kid (I'm guessing this would be 8th grade plus?, so teenagers) reading a few swear words in a book need to get over it.
It's an interesting dilemma in my mind. I remember reading through the SRE book about how SREs a required to have both depth and breadth. Seems like a nearly impossible target to hit IMO, so how are you supposed to simultaneously reconcile deep/broad abilities with humility when hiring for SREs?
Not sure. Camel allows working with multiple transport technologies and normalizes them to a single API. It doesn't implement those multiple technologies.

If it doesn't solve the problems you have then it probably does seem complicated--but it solves a certain class of complicated problems reasonably well.

Let's flip the question on its head: what should people use instead?

>Don't forget, TSLA is an energy company.

Boy are people going to have to do some explaining if Tesla winds down Solar City, which I see as a major possibility.

>But long term their products are going to be as ubiquitous as household electric meters and just as boring.

I'd love to know how people are so confident that it's going to be Tesla that wins this. This isn't Tesla vs GM, Tesla vs Toyota, Tesla vs Ford; it's Tesla vs Everyone. If you were betting, you would really bet on Tesla vs one of about 15 other, huge companies in pool? That seems insane to me.
That's a great idea if the tech were ready.

Introduced prematurely, it could set the tech back due to public outcry. A few more autopilot deaths in the US in this political climate could really hurt the industry. Chao is looking for an excuse to pull permits.
Again you've got to be kidding. There's nowhere to store a blanket of flexible photovoltaic cells. Plus the rigging necessary to stow and deploy would be huge, heavy, and expensive. It's just totally impractical, a complete pipe dream.
Deeply sarcastic indeed!

Writing Singular was probably the most emotionally trying and, at the same time, rewarding challenge I've tackled. It even feels weird to describe it that way, it's simply been a part of me for the last two years.

I'm curious how that changes from the first book to the twenty-first?
I'm not sure that's true, actually. The ways that AFS hooks into the kernel, especially on kernels that don't have actual loadable module support (older commercial UNIXes) or on kernels that try to limit syscall hooking (e.g., Linux), are distressingly close to the ways that a rootkit hooks into the kernel.
Here's another, even worse example:

> It turns out that people’s interview language of choice matched their most endorsed language on LinkedIn just under 50% of the time, so, you know, just slightly worse than flipping a coin.

A coin has 2 sides. How many programming languages are there, again?

> I am very skeptical about recycling

I am too. I really despise that they push the burden onto the customer, instead of hiring people or robots to pick bottles or other shit out of the trash stream and recycle it. As a homeowner, I'm paying them for trash service. If there's a cleaner way (recycling - which isn't necessarily any greener, as you pointed out) , the waste management industry should be forced to do it for the greater good, just like coal plants are forced to run their exhaust through scrubbers to remove pollutants. They shouldn't profit, or burn millions more gallons of diesel driving huge recycling trucks around, by forcing (or guilting) us to do unpaid labor.

It's not clear to me what you're pushing back against. 'StuntPope expressed that they thinks this submission is relevant to HN and has been repeatedly flagged, and understood and expressed acceptance (with some additional, civilly expressed comments) for the explanation 'dang provided.

You seem to be reading a lot more into their comments than is needed. I read nothing in their comments other than clarification based on what's in your replies. They've just expressed a desire to discuss the submission, which seems to actually support the idea of criticism.

I am personally astonished that LinkedIn is still a thing. For me, it was the most obviously useless of all the social networks and it was the first one I deleted, upwards of 7 years ago now.

The other social networks eventually followed but LinkedIn just gave me zero value from day one. It was nothing but recruiter spam. Do people actually get work and jobs out of LinkedIn? Or is is just a way to keep up with what old coworkers are doing? I frankly do not get it.
In an interview published soon after this Swedish government press release, the head of Swedish ambulance workers' union says:

"I know it's sensitive and controversial ... But for us it's really a no go because we have directives not to go into dangerous situations."

> Historically, it is this dependency, this social contract to promise to stay together to raise one's children, that has given rise to many of the legal protections that a marriage license provides.

Not really. Most of the legal effects of marriage amount to legal privileges of the parties to the marriage with respect to each other, both with property and in some power-of-attorney like ways.

The big exception is the presumption (rebuttable or absolute, depending on the jurisdiction) of paternity, which may be irrelevant to same sex [0] marriages (though, in principle, even ignoring the issues under the previous footnote the absolute form and it's stability-over-biology related motivations is equally applicable to same-sex female unions as it is to opposite-sex unions.)

[0] Though given that legal sex is really a form of socially-ascribed gender and may not align with biological sex, it's also arguable that presumption of paternity is just as applicable to same (legal) sex unions as opposite sex unions as a class, though statistically less likely to be relevant to any particular same sex union, given the loose correlation between biological and legal sex.

People can change their tune, but that's not what is happening in today's political climate. It's been less than ten years since the last financial crisis, and no one has forgotten that it was loose regulations that caused it. What we have happening today is something much more sinister - crises and bailouts are becoming part of the system itself. Socialized bailouts, privatized profits.

Integer modulus is one of the slowest CPU operations, especially on modern CPUs (since most other operations have been heavily optimized, and there are many execution units available for them). IDIV on Nehalem can literally take up to 100 cycles (http://www.agner.org/optimize/instruction_tables.pdf), and it varies _a lot_.

Power of 2 hashtables are so much faster because indexing uses a mask. The problem is that, as others have mentioned, powers of 2 suffer a lot with bad hash functions, and people tend to write pretty bad ones, so it's generally a good idea to salt or rehash hashcodes before dropping the upper bits with a mask.

In fact it looks like the results from the author's bear that out, as the flat_hashmap_powers_of_two is almost always the fastest.
Which makes it sound like "we don't know what to believe but we're getting rid of him because it looks bad."

Quote: "TL;DR: Scrivener, Vellum, KDP, Createspace"

Scrivener is US$40, Vellum is Mac-only and US$200, the other two are unnecessary/replaceable and IMHO should be a list of equivalent options -- once you have a manuscript, which can be created using any number of free tools.

Someone who imagines writing the Great American Novel, but who also expects to have to pay a premium for each step along the way, may not grasp the essence of novel writing -- how it fits into the big picture.

There are any number of free word processors able to organize a book project into chapters and sections. Self-publishing is also free or should be.

My favorite story about novel creation is that of Andy Weir and The Martian. Weir started the project as a series of blog posts, got very useful feedback from his readers, improved his content on that basis, and the project grew nearly on its own. By the time Weir wanted to talk to publishers, they already wanted to talk to him.
I'm building an open source version of HootSuite.  Suggestions needed
Hi,
I'm currently building an open source version of HootSuite. I am currently planning my MVP and plan to launch its first version within the next 2 weeks. After the initial launch, Ill create a new version every week.

To make sure I build something people really find useful, I'd like to know what features in HootSuite you use the most and what social network you manage using HootSuite.

I'm asking these questions to make sure I put the efforts to build the features people use the most, first.
