One of the best papers I've read on cartesian duality was by Vaughan Pratt[1] on Chu spaces. It's a little bit of a slog for those not conversant in foundations, but it does help ground the conversation in terms that are more rigorous.

As an aside, Chu spaces also provide a semantics for linear logic and are useful in understanding concurrency.

Windows 10 refuses to work properly with my 4K Dell monitor.

In my experience inbox does not modify the way anything is stored, just alter the representation. The same labels as gmail are used so you should just be able to switch back and forth.
Your assertion that full disclosure is unethical will require some substantiation for us to believe it.

It's not too late to stop this. But if you try, some people who will be dead before the worst happens and so won't suffer or pay for the consequences, and who can profit in the short term by punting the problem into the long grass will fight to prevent you from doing so.

In order to stop it, roughly $10 trillion dollars worth of fossil fuel assets will need to be left in the ground. As a historical parallel, the economic value (inflation adjusted) of the slaves in the southern US before the civil war was $10 trillion dollars.

The people who owned those slaves opted to fight the most destructive war the planet had seen at that time rather than give up their property.

Have you noticed that nearly all the big names pushing Brexit are climate change denialists? That Trump claims it's a hoax and chose as his Secretary of State the head of Exxon that discussed climate change on a seperate email alias which the company then "lost" when asked to provide them in a court case?

It's not looking good, but it's not a technical issue.

You also need the permission of all the authors of the code those patches are based on, because almost all new patches are inevitably derived work of the existing codebase.

It's not practical unless you can maintain a near-100% approval rate from all OpenSSL contributors that their patches are dual-licensed.
Have a 100% solid reason why:

There's already too many of them, and some hardware doesn't like having too many chrome instances running at once.

My PC is an i7 with 4 hyper-threaded cores, and an Nvidia Quadro 2000M. I usually have running, as far as electron goes: Chrome, Discord, remote-working app.

As soon as i add another electron app to the mix the hardware interrupt activity of my machine goes out of control, presumably because too many chrome instances are trying to share the same device for hardware acceleration.

This never happens with non-electron software.

Sorry, but you conflate IQ with individual values that are acquired mainly through culture and education.
A higher IQ does not automatically mean that a person will care about global problems that have no immediate negative effect on their own life, affect everyones wellbeing in the long run and are hard to solve. Or that a society with a higher average IQ will magically create political and economical structures that reward working towards common good instead of rent seeking.

Case in point - Silicon Valley has probably an average IQ around 120-130. How many truly planet-saving innovations have been created there? I mean, you fail to eradicate powerty in SF, your backyard. Because why bother if creating ever new and exciting ways to share cat pictures is infinitely more personally rewarding in the short run and who gives a f about anything else?

So, my point is, higher IQ is not a solution in and of itself, since human nature - instinct to care about oneself first and foremost, will still be present. This instinct can be only tamed by education, culture and political and social structures that promote common good. The chances that a society will evolve these kinds of structures is a toss-up. It is a lot more likely that the outcome will be exactly the same as what we see now - much like adding a 1.2 multiplier to all stats for both mobs and pcs in a computer game - numbers are different, but it is still the same game.

The key is culture, and education, and conscious work towards better social, economic and political structures. But I am quite sure that we will all kill ourselves a long time before any of that will happen.
Laugh at their crappy joke and start talking about what you delivered at your last job. Ask if cashmoney is tight, so what can they offer you besides salary.

The point is you are now firmly in negotiation mode, you just said so! But you have turned the question into what you are worth and what can they do to secure you.

But if they are really pushy and say, no seriously what did you get at your last job, push back. Seriously, is this an interview or are you just looking for market data... and always be prepared to walk out.
Generally, if you have a lot of cash to start with, this is not a terrible idea. It doesn't need to be property though. Investing in the stock market is almost as profitable (10% avg annual return, vs 11%) but less volatile (http://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/052015/which-has-per...). Stocks also have a drastically lower barrier to entry, and are far quicker to buy/sell.

There's a reason that investment funds and big banking aren't primarily buying up all the housing in the world - it's typically not the most efficient return on investment.

The maths is fun though. How much do you need to make a year? Let's say $60k (approx US household average). Times by 10 (assuming the average 10% annual return) to get the investments you need for that return (so $600,000). If you can get that much capital, you can make that salary just from investment alone (bearing in mind that this is an average: it's not reliable, but if you've got a buffer you're _probably_ ok). In the long-term you'll want a bit more to keep up with inflation, but it's a reasonable ballpark. This is obviously passive income, so you've then got the rest of your time to earn extra in whatever form you'd like, with a lot of freedom and no pressure. The hard part is having the upfront cash...

(Obviously this isn't real financial advice. Don't make life decisions based on HN comments)

Yeah, but why?

With all people complaining about Java, we don't have to deal with this shit so often.

Most breaking changes I see on the JavaScript ecosystem seem like mostly cosmetic. It has been a rough road trying to make decisions on tech that won't get stale quickly and have support dropped in a 1-2 year frame.

Angular is really one of the worst offenders in this regard. What was so fundamentally broken with Angular v1's api that could not just be worked internally and incremented?

It also has ramifications which are pretty dire in my opinion. We have an app written with Ionic 1, so I go check out Ionic 2 see what's going on, and oh look such shiny things, how do we migrate? Nope, full rewrite of course.

There are some decision makers in these teams which are completely disregarding the fact they are burning through several work hours of people around the globe without real value.

Stop breaking things because new. Fine, use semver, but don't you change that first digit lightly, it hurts when you do.
He did, and that's what I find very inconsistent with his prior actions, so there must be something more going on; e.g. [1] says: "This undoes the 73-page publication [2] published on 2016-12-02 by the FCC, most of which took effect 2017-01-03, some parts later on 2017-03-02, both after the election and one of them after the inauguration." So this regulation did not even exist until a few months ago.

I tweeted to Rand Paul to clarify his standing on S.J.Res.34 and I hope he will. The US citizens should e-mail/call Rand and others and demand statements as this is being overshadowed by Obamacare repeal/Ryancare introduction bill.

"Having trust" and "operating as if you have trust" are two different things. I can trust my management with spending authority, but I still have periodic audits.

Trust is not binary.

Blockchains, via crypto, remove uncertainty from medium-trust relationships that would otherwise incur overhead due to counterparty risk, allowing one to replace it with the risk that e.g. SHA256 or ECDSA signatures have been broken, which is usually orders of magnitude lower than squishy human being behavior risks. (Presuming participating organizations have a way of keeping their keys safe, which is expensive but solved.)

That overhead is significant, and entire multibillion dollar industries exist around validating those trust relationships (accounting, auditing, settlement, et c).

Imagine if you could replace them with software that doesn't have to take anyone's word for it.

That's a big efficiency win.
With distributed blockchain enterprises can make use of each others assets without actually a single party dominating, and with zls layer over distributed block chain they can make use of each others confidential assets without actually disclosing the secrets.
Like a customer of one bank can prove his credit history to another bank without actually giving his credit history.
A patient of one hospital proving his medical history without actually disclosing medical records.
Supply chain efficiencies without disclosing trade secrets.
And many other efficiencies and asset sharing.

It makes good sense to hold back a good worker so that they keep doing good work, instead of spending a quarter on learning a new job.

It makes sense to put a ok(maybe bad) worker in a differnt position to see if they do better. Often seen as a promotion by others even if it's not.

In a normal workplace you don't just fire your bottom 5% each year without having chilling effects on your workforce. You move them around and see if they're capable elsewhere, and can use their knowledge/contacts in other parts of the company to have an advantage over a new hire.
This bell seems very well made, designed to last a good long while. Given that a wooden ship tends to have a much shorter lifespan than a ship's bell, it seems possible that Muhayideen Baksh commissioned it with the idea that it would be going on a succession of ships, some of which may not be his, he may have had it cast with such to denote that it was his bell, and not the bell of the ship it happened to be on. So his (ship's bell) instead of (his ship)'s bell.

That sounds like a recruiter going off the script. If they're being that direct, turn it around: my salary expectations depend on how I'd fit in at your company, and how much value I'd add. I hope we can talk about that further along in the interview process, but for the sake of not exceeding your hiring budget, please let me know what the salary range is for this position and I will let you know what we'll need to negotiate on to get to an offer which will work for me.

The intent here is to negotiate in good faith: if they come back with upper salary that is 75% of your expected, go back with: thanks for sharing that information, in order for me to be comfortable with that compensation I'll have to (ask for extra leave/holiday, part-time hours, work from home, X conference trips per year, stock compensation, 3/6/12 month review with performance targets agreed up front which will bump your salary up).
My mistake ;)
Sadly, it's possible I was down-voted for revealing that I like watching Milo / Shapiro vids, and dislike buzzfeed / HuffPo; In this case, I wasn't critical of them, just made the case that they are not to my tastes, given I that ask google not to show me similar sites.

It would be nice if there were merely 'different' interpretations of the news, but I find that the biases fall on certain topics or talking points too often to not notice. The most infuriating aspect of this is the assumptions - the things that are assumed but not discussed.

Incidentally, I'd include 'opinion' pieces in mainstream news outlets as similar to blogs - they also shouldn't be freely mixed in.
I'm a nightowl, but I managed to get a bit earlier by doing this:

- getting up at that time every day

- no caffein after 5pm (or even earlier)

- reduce light after 10pm (lower room light, dim, invert (or using dark themes) or even tint monitors with the program flux)

- routines to fall asleep (watching something really booring, meditating while lying down, counting sheep or some other mind-scenario that you feel home in :) )

If you can scheudule it, you can also consider splitting your sleep in to 2 phases:

When I had to get up early for school, I slept at least 2h at a very fixed time in the evening (around 5pm). Here it helps to really be on time, if you have an appointment at that time you'll be super tired :/... Once you got really quick at falling asleep, you can try to have an espresso just before. Makes getting up 2h later so much easier.
Would you stop people from driving; heating and cooling their homes; watching TV and using computers; eating food grown with fertilizer made from fossil fuels?

I haven't dabbled too much with it, but as still an outsider, Typescript + React honestly seems like a great fit especially to make it even more approachable.

What I like most with React over Angular is that it seems like it cuts to the core of the problem I'm actually trying to solve here. It just feels like a lean, clean, proper solution to the main issue at hand. (this of course helps with dev adoption too because it's easier to find people knowledgeable in lean frameworks, or at worst much quicker to train them)

Well I am no expert, but there is google scholar. The first result searching for "siberian methane bubbles" is Walter &al. 2006 [1], furthermore a simple search for :siberian methane bubbles nasa" yields a rather interesting overview article from Nasa's Earth Observatory [2]. So while the presence of an media article not necessarily imply that there is research, in this case the article reports on an active area of study.

Obviously you write your own paper. The point is the journals profit from your work, yet they expect you to do everything for free. Then they charge your university's library a fortune so you can access your own paper. If someone wants to reuse a figure from your paper, which you made yourself, and represents data from publicly funded research on patients that donated their time and body for the betterment of society, the journal wants to charge $500.

I've realised that scientists will put up with almost anything. You have to be that way, otherwise you won't last. But when Elsevier makes billions of dollars in profit, and the person that reviews the papers for them lives in a box subsisting on instant noodles with no job security, you have to ask some questions. We don't actually need Elsevier. If they disappeared tomorrow science would march on largely unperturbed. Elsevier needs the scientists, and bless them, they have found a way to put us to work for free and sell us the product at the same time.
