Silicon Valley has annoyingly few French restaurants. San Carlos has an adequate French provincial fast food place, Cusinette.
From a computational POV DNA damage should be trivial to repair. You have so many redundant copies in your body. Of course building a fault-free copy, creating stemcells from that and coaxing those into fixing any defects without causing cancer is still scifi, but not the physics-violating kind.
According to article this is not the case here:

> “We weren’t infringing. But we couldn’t afford to fight the case,” he says. Instead, his company settled the 2015 claims with Acushnet by agreeing to get out of the golf-ball business altogether; it received no payment from Acushnet, nor did it pay.

But why is "your experience of the world" tied to your current physical body? I think that the brain is just a machine that creates the illusion of a consciousness. If you turn the machine off, copy the all the data into new hardware, and turn it back on, it will start back where it left off, and the "you" inside won't know the difference. You might not even notice it happened
Oh, it's just that easy? And I can do it whenever? I just need a nest egg? What is that exactly? Oh, but I also need a passive income source? That's all?

So explain how exactly does "anyone" pull this off, or explain how there a massive gap which prevents most people from doing this. Bonus points for explaining how one or the other situation is better.

Well, that is the point. :-)

Excellent. All that time grinding a few comment karma for each small, trivial, mediocre quality post will finally add up to the respect I deserve.
Musk never delivers on time. I think he sets unrealistic deadlines deliberately to scare off competitors and motivate his staff. Yet he still does things so radical that they spawn or renew entire industries, so does it really matter whether things are delayed by a year or two?

there are smartphones with 10kmha, not sure what you mean for awkward file transfer, changing tracks depend on your pair of earphones and the app you use, a lot of apps allow controls through eg bluetooth earphones or simply the mic button on wired ones.
I dunno how widely used it is, but there is Kdb+[1], “a column-based relational time-series database” built on the K[2] language, a descendant of APL. I mainly see J[3] used for code golf, but at least that means a decent number of people know it.

The core language is good enough but the object oriented stuff they put on top later on is just a hell of an eyesore.
Server side rendering can be done with any JS framework, though often one must compromise performance by using a more heavyweight implementation like jsdom, or some custom implementation if the framework provides it.

Also I have done something similar using domino:

This. Everyone has the same problem. And it even gets worse in the Internet, where people just pretend to know things that they don't.
Ask HN: How many of you are skimmers?
I am sure that most of you read articles that you are interested in, the full article. You spend the 5-20 minutes it might take reading an in-depth article if you are interested in it, but for other articles, with curious headlines, or with articles that are just too long to read, do you end up just skimming them?

This is not to say that one article is more important over the other, but just that there are only 24 hours in a day and you cannot read them all; so skimming seems to be a viable option.

There are times where I do see a website with a good article, but honestly, I wish they would have a summarized version of the article they wrote.

This led me to create a feature on my own website at http://www.confessionsoftheprofessions.com called Quick Glimpse.

I talk about why more blogs should summarize their articles here: http://www.confessionsoftheprofessions.com/summarize-blog

Looking off to the left of that article, you can see an example of Quick Glimpse.

I take the article, chop it up into about 3 to 5 short sentences which are presented as bullet points.

There are advantages and disadvantages for doing this. I know people spend less time on the website, but more people actually return back to the website to read other articles and are more likely to actually share the article on social media.

But I am curious why more bloggers aren't catching on to help people "skim" blog posts. Is the mentality: "I took the time to write this, you can take the time to read it"? If Google data is correct and a person spends an average of 2 minutes on a web page, I would rather make those 2 minutes count and give the person all they need in a summary.

What are your thoughts for providing people with a summary of your blog post? And if you are a skimmer, what exactly are you looking for when you skim an article? Do you get anything out of the article when skimming?
While I cannot guarantee such a theft will not happen, the gran sasso national laboratory is literally in an underground hole below the largest mountain in center/south Italy.

How did this work?
Again, a "more whole view" is not a complete view. I didn't suggest that we bring in all aspects of life. Why is it that people purposely misunderstand my words / does not see the scope? (I talked generally, not individually, and I did not talk about bringing all aspects in)
I think you may be misremembering. I'm pretty sure, at least in America, Netflix never charged extra for for Starz — it was either included in Netflix's catalog or not offered at all.

Maybe you're confusing Netflix with Amazon, who do offer Starz as an additional subscription? Or maybe you're just conflating the Starz catalog with Netflix's streaming service, which was originally part of the DVD service and then became its own thing?

This is not the Silicon Valley my friends and I know! The differences the author describes between SV and French dinners seem to be more reflective of differences between business meals with acquaintances/partners vs relaxed meals with family/friends. I feel like at the moment you're booking caterers, making up invitations to send out, and printing a time LIMIT like 6-9PM, you're already well into "event" territory rather than "meal" (and fwiw I went to my share of both kinds during my years in central France as well!).
I've never seen a plan that didn't have to be replanned. In all likelihood, your initial list of tasks is going to double or triple once you get into the zone. So I think this micro-level of attention is a huge red flag. If the money is important, and your relative is fundamentally a good person, why not suggest a number of high-level milestones rather than a multitude of tasks?
Slack doesn't replace email. That's a silly marketing slogan. Imagine for a moment if it really did. What if Slack became so popular that everyone stopped using email? That would be horrifying. You wouldn't be able to communicate with anyone without using Slack because it doesn't federate with any other service. Every website would have to integrate with Slack for user account registrations. Etc. Decentralized federated communications is the backbone of the internet. The fact that IM services have never broadly adopted federation dramatically cripples the potential of the medium with horrible fragmentation and balkanization.
Or worse. It's the reason I'll never have the surgery... the risk is very small but if something were to happen to my eyesight it would be devastating. Glasses aren't so bad.

Here is what i think is a more balanced view - software devs now have more say/power because they are valuable/rare. More people are working on more complex software, which means a dev background becomes more important to effectively plan/manage it. They are using the power to direct resources to things they care about that were neglected in the past - one of them is surely software quality, because in a "product-driven" company, managers don't care about technical debt and will whip you to work on a shitty codebase regardless of how demotivating it is.

In many cases being more dev-driven has saved time and money for the business in the long run. Even if that didnt happen sometimes, you know what, devs are people too and given the chance to improve their working conditions, they did. I'm personally pretty fucking happy about that.

I initially read that as VMS rather than VMs. Very confusing.

I don't think too many people half-heartedly boot VMS. Reactions tend to be one extreme or the other.

By malicious, do you mean inappropriate, or containing a malicious metadata inside the image? The images are probably stripped and/or compressed, removing any malicious metadata.

You can use machine learning to classify images of various categories to detect inappropriate images. For example, this is what Yahoo open sourced: https://github.com/yahoo/open_nsfw

Additionally, user-generated content sites will almost always have a way for users to flag inappropriate content. If something's flagged disproportionately, it will be removed.
How come Bavaria has the highest GPD per captiva (without counting Hamburg and Bremen which are basically cities, not regions) and the second highest total GPD in Germany [1]?

Your experiences are unfortunate and annoying - no doubt. But even if it might be more likely to happen in one region than another this could happen in other regions as well. In the end it's anecdotical stereotyping.

Isn't that a legalistic strategy?
Seconded. In New York, even dinner with friends tend to be catered. In the Valley, however, it is common in my experience for friends to cook and for the topic of conversation to be life, the food and the future of humanity. I really enjoy the last topic. It's not specificallt work related, but neither is a food magazine editor talking about food not work related.

The difference between Manhattan and Paris is more interesting, to me, given the similar population densities.
If HN commenters are amateurs in this domain, what do you think of Andrew Gelman, who wrote the linked-to article and has harped on Wasnick's errors in multiple posts? ,any of the commenters on his blog seem to be well versed in the field too.
I think this is spot on. But I also think it is a structural thing: We have always been told "children and women first to the lifeboat, then men". I think this is a bi-product of the spare-the-women culture we are living.

Maybe men are more trying to be polite than hostile when they won't let women carry heavy loads?

when I think about smartphone innovation I generally think about all the level of automation that could be done with for example tasker for android, if only smartphones could pull sensors data and substantially eliminate overheating, we could have a seamless experience with very little interaction needed, probably not even touch inputs. Smartphones today are sleeping most of the time, they are not dumb, but very much lazy. The benchmarks war has done a ton of harm...look! this device hits 200k on this benchmark, too bad battery dies after 3hours if you keep that up, btw you might also feel an uncomfortable heat in your hands...

I don't get what "what looks like an `if` block" is. In a no-brace if, the statement that follows is indented. The next line after that is not indented. So the indented statement obviously belong to the if.
Terry's "schizophrenia" just means he perceives reality differently than you do. The "word salad" is actually not random nonsense. Your mind is perfectly trained to value political correctness and money, and so you find his thoughts nonsensical or abhorrent. Terry's mind has developed to value art and speaking the truth as he perceives it without any social filter. What you are seeing is a true artist with a perception of reality so different from your own that you don't comprehend it as rational. If you read it carefully, you'll realize everything he says is perfectly rational, he knows perfectly well what he's saying, and racist or not, from a certain perspective there is reason to it.

Imagine you are talking to someone who has been living in the wilderness for a long time, who has stumbled back into civilization and has gained a reputation for being a crazy person, and they point at a cave and say "bear hole makes the rain go away!" and becomes very frustrated that nobody bothers to try and understand them (and instead just repeats the popular opinion about how they are crazy). Are they actually speaking nonsense? I think that's what [some] schizophrenia actually is.

Regarding systemd: I guess I like the systemctl commandline interface, I wasnt around for the alternatives. (if there were any?)
I like that part of systemd. I like the fairly easy to write service files.
I'm not sure how it relates to booting an OS though.

Regarding programming languages: I think we absolutely need better programming languages, they are all still a joke to me. Rust sounded like the perfect language but then we all know what happened, same as c++.
Personally I'm always surprised when somebody makes a new language and doesn't include a debugger or intellisense. It must be only me but it just shows a general disrespect or unawareness for me, the user you want to attract. You actually expect me to be productive with your language without them? C'mon.

> Essentially, people who write code are just glorified digital welders

Yep, that's actually what I think as well. Most programmers just don't think about the higher end goal, usability in the greater context of the OS or interaction design, simplicity, or even whether alternatives exist. They just see a job to do and they do it - often badly actually.

Honestly, it's not just about software development though but that's what I know best. E.g the first Apple iPhone comes to mind: Finally a product that was truly just good. In basically every single way, designed for the user. It was beautiful.
Github comes to mind, it just worked. Immediately and it solved a need. Before we had sourceforge. Facebook was similar in my opinion, although the situation is more complex there.

> What should have been done - whip the developers into submission, force them to create a backward-compatible framework that supports everything, and make backend changes that do not affect the user in any way. That's how product-driven development is done

Haha, somebody speaks from experience. Yeah that's actually how it is done in enterprise development in my limited experience. You just have to be backwards compatible, end of story. Don't care how it's done, just do it.

> Why did smartphones succeed? Because they allowed a common person to do the same things they did on the PC cheaper and faster

Yep, and also because it allowed the common person to be connected while not having to sit hunched over at a PC. The internet and the PC are clearly great things but people want to live their lives and be connected. With smartphones they get to have both. Personally I will never agree with these weird "wow look at how sad all those people are, staring at their smartphones". I remind myself of the pictures of people in the 1900s where everyone at the train station was hunched over their newspapers.

> Features are pointless if people can't use them.

Recently I watched a Microsoft presentation where they state that the many developers keep asking for features that are actually already in Visual Studio for several versions.

One case where they tried to improve this was to make a little clickable arrow on VS 2017 to make "run to cursor" more visible, a feature that is there almost since the early days, but requires the use of toolbar or context menu.

My time to shine. Where shall I start? First of all there is mentality. In Germany people kinda expect you to get a job and push through with it until you go to pension. Changing jobs a lot is often seen as a personal failure. That poor accountant that hates his job and gets paid because he just sits in the same stinky office day by day gets more honoured than anyone trying to change.

People here get judged if they start a business and fail. If you are successful then fine. If not, people don't give you credit. Personally I rate the person higher that tries several times, falls, gets up and starts over. Unfortunately that is not the case.

Nice example if you are from the USA. Over there it is more socially accepted to get married and divorced often than not at all. In Germany it is quite the opposite. You can't even make a failure in private how could you do that in business?

Many business here have roots and are decades old. That whole "Mittelschicht" is build on family owned business. That is actually a good thing and probably one of the reasons the economy in Germany is so efficient, but it doesn't give anyone the incentive to start something.

And don't forget Germany is all about bureaucracy. Lots of paperwork and money just to get a GmbH. And a GmbH is what you need to gain trust from other companies.

Sorry, there is so much to it. Hopefully there will be some change in attitude. It is already happening.
This! It's not just an aesthetic preference. Like the tab limit, it is instrumental to impede bad logic.
One should probably add a trigger warning. He is schizophrenic and not quite himself at times, especially in the comments. Not to take away from his technical feats.
I hate how the government acts like its everybody's parent these days. I think marijuana is dangerous for your mental health, and would not use it, but I think it's insane that the government thinks it has
the right to tell somebody they can't use it. If somebody wants to smoke weed what right does some unrelated person have to stop them?
Clicking the infographics brings me to a signup page? I'm not one to complain about marketing techniques but jeez is that a poor experience.
I've been informally A/B testing the terms machine learning, artificial intelligence, and computational statistics:

- Machine learning: "Oh, neat, what are you working on?"

- Artificial intelligence: "What do you think about the singularity?" or [rolls eyes]

- Computational statistics: "That's nice. So, how was your weekend?"
You just might be more on the introverted side of the personality scale.

A good way to see the difference between intro- and extraversion is as follows.

Introverts have a lot of inner tension. That starts when they are toddlers. They constantly have something to think about, thus they need more alone-time than others to sort themselves out and work with their inner life.
Talking to others is fine and rewarding, but recovery time is needed afterwards, so they choose their communication carefully.

Extroverts have way more inner peace. They don't need much time for themselves, they often get bored being alone. So they seek out other people for stimulation. More often than not they seek out introverts, because those are especially interesting.
Talking to others is refreshing for them, it refills their batteries.

So if you see yourself on the introverted side, don't worry about it.
Just accept it and give yourself the peace you need.
Invite more or different guests, so they can talk to each other, while you are busy with someone.
