Ask HN: What is the most hi-res map of the moon?
I'm looking at this: https://www.mapaplanet.com/explorer-bin/explorer.cgi?map=Moon&layers=moon_clementine_base_v2&west=318.875&south=6.60&east=327.485&north=11.63&center_lat=0&center=323.18&defaultcenter=on&grid=none&stretch=auto&projection=SIMP&advoption=NO&info=NO&resolution=64, but the quality is horrible.

What is the best-resolution lunar map available to the public?
Why? I've never lived there but it seems one of the few places with tech jobs and houses that don't cost a million bucks.
I tried out their demo apps on Android and they were pretty fast but there were still some hiccups. It's definitely not as fast as good Java apps but it is pretty close. Also the animations are on the level of iOS apps - far superior to Java Android apps.
Thank you for handling this properly. We've had too many instances of sites shutting down without thinking about archival, so it's great seeing it done with some thought.
I like the concept, though I very strongly suspect it would be gamed.

Creating a system for imposing a cost on persistent identity -- not "real name" identity, but some form of valued persistence -- and then imposing rate-limiting, could be useful.

Reddit does put posting limits on new and unverified accounts, by subreddit. To the point of only one post every 5-10 minutes, if I recall (I've tripped that filter a few times).

Or as I've said a few times: "Who are you?" is the most expensive question in information technology. No matter how you get it wrong, you're screwed.

Using other information they have acquired they would phone the bank’s customer service line, convince them that they were you & gain control of the account. How hard this is depends on the bank. The fact that you have a strong password & two factor authentication is irrelevant.
Even when they do not, electrical requirements are going to skyrocket when everybody has to charge their electric car overnight — right now that is when electricity is cheapest, but is almost certain that going to be true in the future.

A personal level, I don't take anybody seriously who talks about about global warming/climate change without mentioning nuclear as the solution, as it cuts down on those who simply want to use it for political purposes.

You're forgetting the biggest factor: immediate disclosure also informs malicious parties.

What's really more dangerous, an extra week with a vulnerability that might be known, or two hours with a vulnerability everybody knows about?

Who's really more likely to see that disclosure on your personal Twitter account, every single (potentially non-technical) user of software you aren't even related to, or a few black hats who know you like to hack and brag?

Yes, it also makes companies look better, but in this case my anti-corporate agenda needs to take a back seat.

I just create a text box for each column, then copy paste a task to move from one to another. It isn't as nice as a visual UI where you can drag and drop, but as a whole this solution works better.
The article is a bit strange. Is this really anything new? What you describe has been happening since at least the 1890s, where text heavy, low value adverts appeared in newspapers and magazines. The metric and the medium may have changed, but fundamentally the same thing was happening.

Somewhere along the line (probably with the demise of AOL) it was decided that the model of the internet wasn't going to be such that we paid a subscription for the content we consume, but that the model would be akin to freesheets and completely ad funded. It's natural that people who invest in that kind of advertising are going to want some kind of metrics in return, and probably also natural that publishers will try to optimize for that metric too.
1. Multiple google accounts and being told I'm logged into the wrong one when I follow a link from an email.

2. Google wants me to use their web-based calendar instead of my desktop one.

Synchronising multiple calendars is a pain in the ass: I want people at each company I work for to be able to see whether I am free, but I hate filling my calendar six times. I've got some applescript that helps me using the Mac calendar, but it feels like the two companies I do that are google-apps based always break randomly and require some random touchups.

3. Timezones. I travel very often and I want to see my daily-diary with the local team, but there's no easy way to say "this week in EST"
How does this in your opinion compare to "source code pro" from adobe?
Political discussions with general public have always been like that, in every country and every age. It's not Facebook's problem, that's just how people are.

Any topic that indiscriminately concerns almost any person (e.g. politics, religion, weight loss and bodybuilding, how to parent and educate children, cooking, healing common pains/sicknesses), when discussed with random people, is automatically doomed to turn into a mess of uninformed opinions, misinformation, trivial logical slips and ordinary quarrel.

Tech/science discussions are usually constructive because they imply harsh entrance filter on education and intelligence, because most of those who upvote "that is not right!" can not join a public discussion of pharmacokinetics of a certain organic molecule no matter how welcome they are. When filters are absent, you get what you have described.

The real problem is that over 95% of people do not even value being constructive, checking facts, citing sources, etc. That is not a technical problem, you can't solve it by tweaking voting buttons.

I did not know that activating the Vivado license locked me in to developing only for Arty. ISE will no longer synthesize for any other target. I strongly dislike the closed nature of their software licensing.

That is absolutely not correct. Something else is going wrong with your licensing. Have you asked around on the Xilinx customer forum?
I want to make sure I fully understand the accusation here.

You're saying that the Open Philanthropy Fund - which is funded by an $8.3 billion grant from Dustin Moskovitz and Cari Tuna, also close associates - is funneling $30M money to an organization that pays below market rates (https://www.quora.com/What-is-compensation-like-at-the-non-p...), run by people who have dedicated their professional careers and millions of dollars to philanthropic causes despite being surrounded by way more lucrative opportunities for anyone with their skillsets.

If this were the scheme, there are countless better ways to do it.

They could just give them the money without any pretense. Dustin and Cari didn't have to tie up this money in OPP. They could have skipped the years of working with Holden and others for years to identify the best giving opportunities, avoided any blowback, and just used their money the way every other billionaire does. Or, instead of just giving it away, they could have made him an absurdly compensated CEO of a new startup.

And none of that would have attracted any attention, no sneering condemnation, just business as usual.

But that's not what they did.

They've spent years painstakingly identifying the best causes they could find - anti-malarial nets, poverty relief via direct cash transfers, biosecurity, intestinal work treatment, Schistosomiasis, prison reform, and yes, AI safety. They've oriented their entire lives around this project, so of course many of the people they're close to are working on similar projects. So it really, really shouldn't be a shocking twist that one of the people they're close to might be in a position to use a small fraction of their available funds for a lot of potential good. There are fewer than 100 people working full-time on AI safety today. If you've concluded that it's an important cause area, there really aren't many options.

And even then, they didn't have to disclose their personal connection. They really could have just left well enough alone. But because they're dedicated to transparency even in the face of stupidity, they made their personal connection prominent and obvious. So now anyone on the Internet can cruise on by and - ignoring the millions donated to third-world poverty and health causes, ignoring the multitude of ways the money could have been quietly and selfishly used, ignoring the fact that non-profits invariably pay below-market rates, ignoring the copious public writing and research that's gone into these decisions - can simply gawk and say "unbelievable".

When people say "No good deed goes unpunished", this is what they're talking about.

I don't believe it is a choice made once, but a series of choices. When Drupal threw out one of their leaders, because he was into BDSM, they made exactly the choice you suggest we don't. It was not made by some mysterious “other”, it was not made by “them”, it was a choice made by a few named people.

It's a choice we all make every day, is the sum of those choices that make the world we live in. If you want to change the world we live in, act accordingly and convince others to act accordingly.
It's not Holden's money - he works for OPP, he doesn't fund it. The money comes from Dustin Moskovitz and Cari Tuna, and it's already in a trust.
This is something I've been doing for the last two years, that and shielding the keypad with my hand. If anyone were to ask or notice then I'd explain I'm checking for skimmers and maybe they'll start doing the same.

The Open Philanthropy Project uses the word 'Open' to mean (http://www.openphilanthropy.org/what-open-means-us):

"Open to many possibilities ... instead of starting with a predefined set of focus areas, we’re considering a wide variety of causes where our philanthropy could help to improve others’ lives." and "Open about our work ... Very often, key discussions and decisions happen behind closed doors, and it’s difficult for outsiders to learn from and critique philanthropists’ work. We envision a world in which philanthropists increasingly document and share their research, reasoning, results and mistakes to help each other learn more quickly and serve others more effectively."

This all seems pretty useful so I don't get what your criticism is.

There is a point that you're probably missing. UB is one of greatest things that could have been "invented" in engineering. Instead of covering idiotic cases that should never happen via complex algorithms that poison the code simplicity, you can just say that these are UB and rely on your client code to respect that. If you have a registry of objects with names, you don't have to check name uniqueness, because you can state that adding the same name is UB. Like it is for removing non-existent record. If a range of function produces wrong results (anything around limits.h), don't fix it — you're probably not even able to do it correctly, just call it UB for arguments above INT_MAX/4. I use that a lot in my projects, because it allows you to start without waiting for all sorts of these cases to be covered in callee while there are four-to-ten absolutely correct callsites that will never produce UB.

UB is not a flaw. It is an efficient engineering method. Kids will be alright, that's hard thing to learn, but once you get it, it is simple, clear and complete. If kids want to stay in a sandbox, well, we have a lot of them.

Those who blame UB probably never turned their attention to electronics, physics or chemistry. That is a mess. Every time you pass wrong arguments or do something out of spec, it can explode and really hurt your foot.

Edit: typo
"Running an organization" is not the same thing as "owning an organization". Maybe at a company the CEO might have shares, but there's no equivalent at a non-profit. It's just a job that pays below market rates. If money was the goal, there's a plethora of readily-available much-higher-value opportunities that won't get sneering Internet comments.

- FLAVOR: Ubuntu Desktop

- HEADLINE: Make Ubuntu Make a first class citizen and bring accompanying documentation alongside this.

- DESCRIPTION: Ubuntu Make has undergone a couple of stages, including a rename process. I would love to see maybe a graphical tool that is either stand alone or a plugin to the Software Center sorta. Maybe a "Ubuntu Make" application with a nice little icon, and it should come with basic tooling at first, but should be a resource for finding documentation on how to build SNAP packages, DEB packages, and just all out do software development for Ubuntu, whether back-end or front-end. I've seen ElementaryOS' documentation and it is nice, I would love to see Ubuntu become a great way for people new to software development and Linux to really get to dive in. Ubuntu Make has more potential than it gets credit for. I would also love to see it resolve installation issues if possible of other compilers and build tools, if there are known issues and known solutions, or some process to aid in fixing such issues that might not be so trivial to newcomers (though that's just me thinking way ahead of time). I hope it gets serious attention at some point. I've had odd issues with the D compiler (DMD) because I'm missing a package or it has to be symlinked, something a newbie would spend hours searching could be part of a simpler set of documentation for developers somewhere.

- ROLE/AFFILIATION: Software Developer and daily Ubuntu User at work and at home.

The timezone point was that everyone gets access up until midday in their own timezone. So in EST they have it until 12pm EST and in PST they have it until 12pm PST.
Very much this, and the realisation that attention is finite and very highly rivalrous is one that needs a great deal of amplification.

I'm finding Herbert Simon and Alvin Toffler's Future Shock to be pretty fascinating reading in this context, both from the early 1970s. Toffler cites significant earlier work.

I'm also starting to wonder what the long-term effects of high-level information overload are. Toffler's giving me considerable pause on that account.

Not the commenter you're asking to, but ligatures, to me, are a print thing. They are not nice on the computer screen. I'm kind-of fine with fi and ffi with variable-width fonts, but the rest is geekery (which is fine in itself, but not practical).

With print, you have to think about kerning and the flow of the ink, and the DPI of the printer, and many other variables, and some ligatures help with that (fi). Then there are some letter strings that appear consequently very often (e.g. st), in which case if you're cutting your fonts out of metal cubes, it's practical to have a single character for those strings. They are not, basically, of help to the reader, but instead to the typesetter / the machine. But you don't spend ink or metal on a computer screen, so the ligatures are just there for the sake of it.

With monospace fonts, well, because there's no kerning (each character takes up equal space), there's no way that normally any bits of the letters could coincide, so all the ligatures are forced and artificial there.

> It's simply impossible to harm you through Twitter.

That's really ignorant. When somebody with epilepsy receives a strobing image that can cause real harm. When somebody who's recovering from PTSD receives some gruesome message that makes them relive whatever awful experience they had, that causes real harm too. Online bullying can push people to suicide. It's no joke.

It's absurd to claim that it's impossible to harm people through Twitter (or any other online conduit) when victims claim they are harmed and there is clear evidence of harm.

> Twitter is not useful to journalists.

Journalists say the opposite: they couldn't have gotten their foot in the door without twitter.

> It's not part of our culture.

Okay, this is just too silly. Twitter is everywhere in our culture. In advertisements. On TV. Songs are written about it. Books. All politicians use it. Businesses use it. Twitter is huge for sports. Activists use it to organize. If Twitter isn't part of our culture, then neither are cars or t-shirts.
