I was hesitating to visit the US landmarks for years now under Obama's administration -and even before that under Bush's- but under Trump's, his attitude and words only indicates that it would get worse...

I don't want to subject myself to questionning and genuflecting just to travel somewhere, live and work where I please, I am too much used to crossing borders as if they didn't exist. (I am French and travelled accross Europe, never went to the US)
Re: Canada... My understanding is that it's not really accurate. -- much of the Canadian oil is oil that is imported to Canada and either transshipped or refined in Canada subsequently imported.

The other thing is that while the US isn't necessarily dependent on Saudi oil, key allies and trading partners are. Places like Japan, China, EU states, etc. That gives them a lot of strategic leverage.

Howdy, author here. Completely agree on the early reader feedback. I went through two rounds of readers (alpha and beta) and it was immensely helpful in grinding down some of the rough edges of the book.

A development editor would be fantastic as well, I honestly just didn't know where to find one!
one of my female friends who is from the same class as I and is less proficient than me on almost all levels is getting inundated with offers from any tech company of her choice. Meanwhile, I barely get a callback from the recruiter, some of them pomise to call at certain time and never call, adding insult to injury.

Kind of infuriating given both her parents are practising physicians and her whole education was completely paid for, unlike most people who have student debt staring them in the eye.
It's a simple distinction:

1. You want to come work in London? Fill out all these forms, pay fees, prove that you're going to be useful, and we might allow you to stay

2. You want to come work in Berlin? Sure, come along.

Do you see how the latter makes you feel much more welcome?
>> So essentially, the technology isn't ready yet, and we're all using the Early Access version of the hardware?

I would say this is really close to being a stupid comment. The technology does exactly what it's supposed to do, and does it quite well. Just because it doesn't support features you want doesn't mean the tech isn't "ready".

Indeed; even if they can make lettuce grow, it's very low in nutritional value so they'd need to sacrifice a lot of space and energy into creating something edible. Potatoes would work better. Space pigs, too, but they'd require a lot of nutrients to keep alive and grow. iirc they need ten times as much food than what their meat is worth in nutritional value.

The future is probably artificially produced food, like the porridge / sludge shown in the Matrix. Something out of a chemical process instead of a biological one.
How is the UK different in this regard?
Actually, I am 100% sure that Romania IS NOT Schengen. And the UK is also not Schengen.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schengen_Area

I nearly f. this up when I was traveling with my Non-EU girlfriend who was on a single entry Visa and I was about to book a flight for us from Vienna to Sofia to travel in East Europe.

The question is: Can citizens of Bulgaria and Romania just move to the UK without further requirements? Looks to me they would need a visa.

SymbolicIO's IRIS – Real or Memorex? If Real, a Computing Paradigm Shift
Interesting concept, but tbh it falls short in the physics department - there's so much drag on the ball that it loses lateral movement so quickly, and all of the characters that I've tried seem to rotate off-centre, which just makes everything feel janky.

Also, it's commonplace to offer the "extra life for viewing an ad" AFTER the player runs out of lives, not when they have 1 left, that's just misleading - either give the player 2 lives and offer a third for viewing the ad or give the player 3 and offer a fourth.
I believe I own all of those! I'll check them out. Thanks!
Ah well. You win. Congratulations? I'm not here to argue over grammar. It seems like you have sufficient grip on the language to have understood the comment you quibbled with.
quite a decent perf from the ML family at around 19 seconds (F# and Ocaml). Top of the functionals, at least, twice as fast as Haskell.

Also look how ginormous the binaries are for all the VM languages. Kinda would have thought it would be the opposite what with not needing to link in as much runtime?

SEO is not hard: A simple, step-by-step guide that works every time
The author seems mistaken about a couple things relating to hash tables. He doesn't seem aware that, by far, the main reason for using power-of-two hash table sizes is so you can use a simple bitshift to eliminate modulo entirely.

He is also going to run into modulo bias since using the remainder to calculate a slot position is biased toward certain positions for every table size that isn't a power of two. (see https://ericlippert.com/2013/12/16/how-much-bias-is-introduc... for cool graphs) Prime number table sizes do nothing to fix these issue. The power-of-two size with a bitshift is not just faster, it gets rid of the modulo bias.

Fastrange is much faster than modulo but if his goal is to build the fastest hashtable it's stupid to use a table size of anything except a power of two.

Source: I also wrote a hashtable :)
Right, but only if you were expecting to emigrate anyway. Otherwise it's hard to see how this would have any effect. It's not as if being 'trapped in the EU' is a major concern on the minds of most Europeans right now.

Conversely, there may well be plenty of Brits who may well be concerned that reciprocal restrictions might prevent them from emigrating to the EU and might move forward their plans to do so too.
Joining the Schengen Area is an ongoing process. Romania is currently not a member state.
To be more accurate, ResEdit was a tool for developers. It wasn't really designed for the user to tweak things, but of course that's how things eventually happened.
Correct. He's talking about the automated method used on shattered.io to detect files which use the attack. See: https://github.com/cr-marcstevens/sha1collisiondetection

They're basically building that into git so that if this specific collision attack is ever used, git will notice and throw a warning/error.
We can observe the effect of gravitational lensing. The claim that dark matter causes it is part of the same claim that dark matter is responsible for galactic rotation curves looking the way they do. Thus it does not provide any further support for the dark matter hypothesis.
Isn't that the whole point of the original article, there will be a cutoff point, people assumed it would be when we left the EU but the government is about to state that it will be when we call article 50.
Would a clear-text token, in addition to an encrypted connect token, allow servers to drop packets faster (since it wouldn't require decryption)? A clear token could be changed (cached, expired) however the back-end wanted, which would include dropping all new connection attempts when under DDOS.

I didn't see a port number anywhere. Shouldn't you define 443/UDP (or other) as the only connection port? This would allow networks to manage the traffic, for example dropping all UDP/443 traffic internally, or managing bandwidth at a firewall.

Finally, shouldn't P2P be in the mix? If not now, won't we be doing this again in a few years?

Thanks for taking on such a big challenge, and for listening to the peanut gallery.
For those interested in this sort of thing I offer for your consideration the film: House of Games

From IMDB:

A psychiatrist comes to the aid of a compulsive gambler and is led by a smooth-talking grifter into the shadowy but compelling world of stings, scams, and con men.

Warning: Many sites that talk about this film have spoilers. If you want to enjoy the film, don't read beyond what I have quoted above.
From my perspective as a curious observer of both projects, OSTree certainly looks attractive, because it doesn't waste space on two rootfs partitions which have to be oversized to accommodate future growth of the image. I initially thought OSTree required btrfs, because Project Atomic used btrfs the last time I looked at it. But according to the docs, while OSTree will take advantage of btrfs features if btrfs is being used, OSTree itself will work with a variety of filesystems including ext4.

Edit: An upside of the alternating rootfs partition approach is that the rootfs can be cryptographically verified at the block level. Chromium OS implemented this, and CoreOS also uses that implementation. This is probably outside the scope of Mender itself, but the updating approach used by Mender enables it.

I think you misread my post.

1. CIA's attempts to assassinate Castro resemble episodes from a long-running prank-based reality show.

2. The Kim assassination got some participants to believe the op was part of a prank-based reality show. It could only have been done by a state actor.

3. (Donning tin foil hat) CIA connection! Looking like a prank show is their calling card!

Lumber Liquidators has the same price for thicker oak butcher block countertops. Woodcraft has similarly priced thicker birch butcher block.
Smaller ARM is quite simple, and as mentioned upthread there was already an async ARM - AMULET.

Tool complexity isn't really to do with size or complexity of design, although size affects runtime. It's a question of how accurate the physical modelling is and how well manufacturers trust an OK from the tools. And whether the engineers trust the tools and can use them effectively.

There aren't all that many design tool companies, too. Remember I worked for one. The Cadence/Synopsys duopoly is quite strong for the usual reasons.

Fundamentally what you're asking is for someone to make a quarter-million-dollar+ bet on async. It's easy to say "sure it'll be great" when it's not your money.

(Maybe the easy way to do it is to build an app for sending "yo!" to your friends, raise the $1.5m VC, and spend it on silicon instead...)

(Less snarky edit: you know that async isn't a magic dust to apply to existing designs, and that someone would have to write an entirely new core targeting RISC-V in an async style?)
Huh? I think you replied to the wrong person as I didn't start with the personal attacks. LOL
Just a right-side text that highlights once you mouse-over would be great. It may be too much to display all of names, but having it populate gives some idea of where you need to go.

Perhaps just every "red"/affected site could be populated on the right side :)

The question is, do people from Romania and Bulgaria need a visa? Looks to me they can not just move to the UK but maybe the UK has different agreements with this countries.

Just checked:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visa_requirements_for_Romanian...

Looks like they don't need anything but a passport to go to the UK.
I'm happy that this might to useful to you in the future!
Oxygen is also really weird from a certain point of view.

Your fuel is exhausted by gaining something. Your fuel may even still be there, but you can't keep burning it because there is too much of an extra thing, which is also necessary for burning.
In addition to right away for high-speed rail only getting more expensive over time, what about the necessary I-5 expansions that will probably be needed sometime this century? I've only driven on I-5 up that way a few times since I'm not from the PNW, but I'm not even sure I-5 could be widened in some areas. It seems that increasing car-traffic flow in the future might be just as expensive as putting in rail.

I hear people complain about light rail and high-speed rail being boondoggles because of their expense, but if the same right of ways needed to be purchase for new road construction, wouldn't road construction cost be pretty close to the cost of the rail line? This doesn't even include the amount of underfunding across the country for road maintenance and the fact that property tax and gas tax don't come close to funding the maintenance needs.
Our goal is to keep it as simple as we can, keeping the worries about model selection and tuning on our side as much as possible, therefore we don't go much into those details.

I can share that our platform is built on top of ARIMA models, but with a lot of pre-processing work done previously to try and figure out automatically the best parameters to use, as well as a lot of previous hand-tweaking done by ourselves in-house using different datasets (we started out tuning it for forecasting energy consumption, but figured that the resulting models were performing well enough to warrant testing in other domains).

Right now we're opening it up for testing to get more feedback on its performance, so feel free to shoot any more questions or feedback.
I think the initial r&d to get to this point is more along the lines of a nation-state investment. Google paid much more than $110k to get this working. It's not clear exactly how much it would cost to "weaponize", either.
Regenboogdieet doet eten met alle kleuren van de regenboog
Dupe of this huge recent discussion:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13697771
Interesting article. I like the raw quotes without any unnecessary commentary by the author, but like ufmace said I do think some of the prompts may have come across as pushy.

I am not a Trump supporter, but I am interested in the ferocity behind his supporters' feelings of (social? economical?) oppression. This quote in particular,

>"Over the last few years, the mainstream left has resorted to name-calling and character assassination, instead of debate, any time their positions are questioned. [...] Intelligent debate has become rare."

has me scratching my head somewhat because I personally recall the last eight years to be almost the exact opposite. Did the GOP not spend eight years under a 'No Compromise pledge'[1] while targeting Obama as their political punching bag?

With regard to the last sentence, was it not Donald Trump himself who devolved the debate to name calling (or 'character assassination', as this respondent might call it)? "Crooked Hillary", "Sleepy [Ben Carson]", "Little Marco", "Lyin' Ted" all come to mind. Or is this what the respondent might consider 'intelligent debate'?

Other responses allude to personal security, particularly this one,

>"We need borders at every level of our society."

and to responses like this I think there's a question of what the term 'conservative' has become in the last eight years. Would 'the party of small government' of the past dared utter this type of sentiment? Or has Obama's presidency (and Trump's campaign) been so damaging to the GOP that their mantra of 'limited government' as defined on their own website[2] has been unexpectedly dissolved.

Maybe this individual isn't a part of the GOP. Or maybe the GOP is out of touch. Or maybe I just live in an echo chamber. Either way, I'm going to be interested to see if the GOP evolves to fit Trump's message, or if it anchors itself with over a dozen fragile candidates whose campaigns are destroyed by a two word catchphrase from a reality TV star.

Either Trump is the strongest conservative in eight years, or the GOP and Democrats are the weakest they've ever been.[3]

I hate studies that ignore missing data by saying it's not relevant.

I'm not sure it's as much an argument for dark matter and more an argument against the idea that if you must create a force or type of matter (or matter itself) in order to make a model work, then the flaw is in the model. By showing examples of this being a useful method in the past, it helps discredit the idea that the model has to be wrong, as opposed to proving idea that the model has to be right which are two different arguments entirely.

Hi folks!

I would appreciate to hear what HN thinks of the baggage Series A funding brings over, if any. Kindly know that I am aware of the value of funding, especially when used as growth capital.

Loss of equity is obvious to all of us, so it would be great if you could expound on the issues around loss of control (vision, growth rate, hiring etc) and any others that come to your mind. Thanks!

It also creates more jobs, less of that money leaving the UK as remittances, and pressure on businesses with workers paid so low that consumption of basic products eats up a large part of their wages to raise those wages. So who knows how it will shake out. It's certainly not an unambiguous moral good to have a class of people in the country who can unofficially be treated worse than the native-born because they're expected to live in squalor to support their families back home.

I recently culled my book collection to those I truly cherish (around 50 or so). Nowadays, I only buy physical books from my favorite authors which I am sure will be exceptional and worth re-reading.

Also by Goodstein [1]:

Peer review is usually quite a good way to identify valid science. Of course, a referee will occasionally fail to appreciate a truly visionary or revolutionary idea, but by and large, peer review works pretty well so long as scientific validity is the only issue at stake. However, it is not at all suited to arbitrate an intense competition for research funds or for editorial space in prestigious journals. There are many reasons for this, not the least being the fact that the referees have an obvious conflict of interest, since they are themselves competitors for the same resources. This point seems to be another one of those relativistic anomalies, obvious to any outside observer, but invisible to those of us who are falling into the black hole. It would take impossibly high ethical standards for referees to avoid taking advantage of their privileged anonymity to advance their own interests, but as time goes on, more and more referees have their ethical standards eroded as a consequence of having themselves been victimized by unfair reviews when they were authors. Peer review is thus one among many examples of practices that were well suited to the time of exponential expansion, but will become increasingly dysfunctional in the difficult future we face.

Emulation via FPGA or dedicated HDL emulator (a special supercomputer designed for running Verilog/VHDL, very fast, very good, very expensive) is also essential for functional verification of things like CPUs.

For example booting linux and running a simple application can take many billions of cycles. You simply can't simulate that many you need something faster (You can simulate a few billion overnight with an appropriate server farm, but that's across many tests using many simulator instances).
