Like books: as one reads more one gets to know what is written better. Overtime, reading code has helped me in inculcating good practices of others in my own writing. But having said that, writing code is like playing sport. More we code - better we get atuned to (developer) environment - no amount of reading will help!

It's mature. The community is mature (in multiple senses of the word). The ecosystem is mature. The package management is solid. There are drivers or SDKs for basically every tool or service I would want to interface with.

The syntax is rich but concise. It doesn't require compilation of binaries. It does OOP pretty well. It does procedural pretty well. It does web pretty well. It does throwaway command line scripts pretty well. It does performance well enough for the things I do with it. It's portable.

Python isn't perfect, but 99.99% of the time it gets out of my way. I must, can, and do work with other languages. I constantly find them frustrating me in small ways. Python generally doesn't do that.

The connection is not direct. There may be more direct connections between YC and OPP, but I am not aware of any.

Mega-Tunnels Dug by South American Megafauna
FLAVOR: Ubuntu Desktop, Ubuntu Server, and Ubuntu Core

HEADLINE: traceroute

DESCRIPTION: Installing some version of traceroute by default may be desirable, because sometimes when you find yourself wanting traceroute, it's because you want to debug a problem that happens to prevent installing packages over the network.

If I try to run traceroute on a system with no traceroute package installed, I get a message telling me I can either install traceroute or inetutils-traceroute. It doesn't explain what the tradeoffs are. It doesn't explain why Ubuntu can't simply have one good traceroute program that does everything.

mtr can also be good, and while I usually run it in text mode, it does have an X11 version that may pull in more dependencies than some people might prefer. I've also on occasion found tcptraceroute useful, and of course sometimes a Paris traceroute is good to have. Installing more than one program that has traceroute functionality in the default installation might be appropriate.

Gotta admit, it seems like altrighterz would really like to see a rise in violence, and this sounds like a way to justify it to yourselves. After Dick Spencer got hit on camera you guys have been trying to simultaneously make the Antifa people out to be some kind of vanguard of violent liberalism that could turn into terrorism and a group of spoiled college kids that are ineffectual and efite.

It's a talking point. I know that you want us to think that and I can see why you would like us to, but Antifa is just not the threat that you say it is and what you are doing is pretty transparent.

This is a strawman. What I have seen in the data presented by the CRISPR-Cas9 researchers seems consistent with the idea that ~1% to 0.1% of cells in culture are mutants at any given site, the treatment selectively kills or growth arrests the non-mutants (at that site), and then the surviving (because they lacked the target sequence) pre-existing mutants divide and multiply to take over the population.

I believe this may account for the vast majority of the "editing" they are measuring, and claims of increased efficiency over earlier methods (eg TALEN) are due to this mechanism. They have not done proper due diligence of ruling out other explanations and prematurely starting running with their favorite, most hype-able, hypothesis.

Can you find one paper where they report the efficiency of inserting a cassette via HDR, or do they all only look at NHEJ when talking about that? I have only seen the latter.

Also, this alternative explanation has real-life consequences. If correct, the very mechanism via which CRISPR-Cas9 works is toxic, meaning all the hundreds of millions of dollars (billions?) currently being spent trying to make it less toxic will be wasted.
This is one of the best things I've ever read! Coding that with no hindrance would be totally beyond me. Doing it by voice is astonishing.

Hi there,

we started a Kickstarter campaign a few days ago. We would really appreciate your expert feedback to our FPGA related board. Link: http://kck.st/2orXGCv

Our board connects a Raspberry Pi to the DE0 Nano. The FPGA can be programmed and reconfigured by the Raspberry Pi.
The overall goal of our company is to make the entry to the FPGA world as easy as possible.

Motivation for our connector board: We try to avoid the proprietary tools as much as possible.

My experience with FPGAs so far (and only my opinions! please roast me)

CASE 1: Only FPGA, no processor:
To complex for bigger projects, because of the missing high abstraction layer.
Drawbacks: Slow development process; To make something useful you need a lot of stuff in your FPGA. Very boring for beginners and in my opinion also for experts;

CASE 2: FPGA with Soft-Core processor:
For my bachelor thesis I once used the SCARTS Soft-Core processor from open cores in my DE0 Nano. Using an arbitrary Soft-Core processor from open cores can't be done Out-of-the-Box. You have to be quite experienced working with FPGAs. For my thesis for example I had to write my own SDRAM controller and add an additional pipeline stage to the processor.
Drawbacks: Soft-Core processor quite slow; To hardcore for beginners; Simulation time makes you consume a lot of coffee;

CASE 3: FPGA with processor on chip:
Advantages: High speed interconnect between FPGA and processor; Fast processor;
Disadvantages: Being fully dependent on the proprietary toolchains. In my opinion the "FPGA only"-tools suck, but the so-called "system builders/designers" drove me crazy;

CASE 4: FPGA with external processor:
In my opinion this is by far the best compromise. With some of my colleagues at the university I once made a bitcoin hashing cluster with our student boards. We also had an atmel microcontroller and a PC for that project. We just needed two days to make a fully working system. So FPGA programming can be very easy actually.

But if you combine the Raspberry Pi and the DE0 Nano it should be even easier.

With Raspberry Pi you have a clean and maintained Linux and with the DE0 Nano you have a powerful and still quite cheap FPGA board.

Again I would really appreciate any feedback. What do you do with FPGAs and how do you approach bigger FPGA projects?

Best regards,
Joe

> So was Erlang. The language, the runtime, and the standard library were all purpose-built together to solve a real world problem... to build fault-tolerant, distributed network applications.

I'm probably outing myself as the lord regent of all impostor plebs, but Erlang is not IMO an approachable language regardless of its origins. Put differently : it looks completely nuts. I'm sure there's a method to the madness, but comparing it to Golang feels misguided (at least, from the perspective of awful programmers like myself)
I strongly disagree with this essay.

Thanks for that link. I'm sure I've looked at MIPS before and it may well have unconsciously influenced me, or it may be a case of converging evolution, but I use the three register design much like MIPS does. However, mine is much smaller, essentially only six "ALU" instructions D = S op T for op in AND, OR, XOR, ADD, SUB, ASR along with PUSH and POP. Given the simplicity of my set I can start from anywhere and cut it down, in fact I'm thinking about cutting down TCC x86_64 to what I use in order to learn how to port TCC.
> imho, cancer is a fundamental disease/property of multicellular life

I like analogizing between multicellular organisms and nation-states, in that both are complex systems built upon the coordination of many individual systems (cells/people). In the case of cancer, what we have is essentially rebellion, a failure of control: individual cells decide to stop cooperating and instead begin competing with the body that houses them. So I agree with you... rebellion is always a threat to any system of control.

Unlike actual rebellion, though, there's no way the cancer can "win" in the sense of taking over control of the body. If only cancer could realize the futility of its crusade...

No, package formats aren't just different sets of instructions, because on each distribution certain files might land on different places.

Plus someone has to keep track of those instructions for every single distribution.

Finally, supporting the same format isn't enough, for example a RPM for SuSE isn't the same as a RPM for Red-Hat.

Well, apparently you forgot there are people still using ALSA and OSS.

When doing desktop applications anyone that cares about UI/UX of the respective users wants to integrate with the menu system, notification on the toolbar, context menus, drag-and-drop of the window manager, printing,....

So it isn't just components.

Of course, if the goal is to have a plain twm experience, then forget about what I am saying.
I always enjoy the classic: I got a dog! to all your friends. I like to give the context that work is tough and I've been thinking about a drastic change and have made one.

A side channel is a channel through which information may leak because of the physical instantiation of an algorithm. It's not much of a stretch to include "things which let us manipulate the world" in that; do you have a better term? I thought the meaning was obvious, but apparently it's not: by "side channel" I here mean "unintended means of affecting the world by a mechanism derived from an accidental consequence of the physical implementation", by analogy with the standard "information"-related "side channel".

Why we're more creative at night and how to reproduce the effect
You can make a feature very cheap but it's difficult to make a profit on it, plus there's a big trade-off between the quality of work you get if you pay or not. Film people help each other out for free frequently cause they're artists, but sadly the model for micro- and no-budget films has shrunk by about half over the last 15 years, so it's very difficult to make a living on small projects compared to even a decade ago.
I think you meant ridiculous.
In a traditional power system the price of energy is heavily based on the cost of fuel. Some fuels (like gas) may only be economical when energy prices rise to a particular level.

Nuclear power, solar, and wind are not like that. The fuel is effectively free, and the costs are fixed regardless of demand or energy price. So it makes sense to run the station as much as possible, regardless of how little money the power is sold for. That means that the price would fluctuate depending on the wider market. If the price of gas suddenly drops then nuclear makes less money.

Subsidies let you set the price up front at a level that is "fair" to pay for capital and ongoing costs. You can argue that the price is too high, but the presence of subsidies is difficult to avoid.

The crazy thing about Hinkley is that the subsidy level is actually linked to wider energy prices. The government have a weird incentive to rig the market in favour of Hinkley C. If electricity becomes cheaper then the scheme will seem like a rip off!
>The taste of science and technology
His foreword to the book makes clear that he doesn't mean anarchist in the left-wing sense. If anything he sounds more like aspects of contemporary militia culture, a kind of patriotic American restorationism. An excerpt:

If the real people of America, the silent majority, are going to survive, they must educate themselves. That is the purpose of this book. [...] If the people of the United States do not protect themselves against the fascists, capitalists, and communists, they will not be around much longer. [...] I do not particularly like any form of government but, if the majority of the people seem to think that they are incapable of governing themselves and want a government, then I think the principles the United States was born with are about the best there are. So now revolution comes to mean revitalization, bringing America back to where she was two hundred years ago. [...] I hope that, by the time the two hundredth anniversary of The First American Revolution rolls around, we will be able to look back at the sixties and early seventies as a dark era in the great history of a free nation.
No, they're really not. The one has a strict legal definition and is enshrined in law, and the others don't and aren't.

Sorry, but it is a historical fact that "strict legal definitions" are fuzzy, and the definition of a "right" changes with technology and cultural changes. If such changes didn't happen, then wiretapping wouldn't be illegal and it would still be illegal to overfly someone's farm in an airplane. Hate speech existing as a legal term is evidence against what you say.

And what about the people who have felt intimidated by the hate speech and haven't attended because of that?

Can you point to specific instances of this happening?

A church can expell a person for preaching atheistic views, and nobody gets annoyed. But as soon as someone does it for a white supremacist, a nazi, andor a person preaching for the extermination of certain groups, it's suddenly "against their free speech".

This is breathtaking intellectual dishonesty here. Preaching for the extermination of certain groups is hate speech. Are you saying that all de-platforming is only targeted at hate speech? In that case, you are simply lying. If not, then this is the dishonest tactic of trying associating your opponent with a villainous group.

If de-platforming were only focused against hate speech, there would be no debate, as hate speech is not protected speech. De-platforming, as practiced, is used to silence anything certain people don't like. As practiced, it's a form of group intimidation that uses the same mechanism of effect as hate speech. Hate speech only became a legal term recently. De-platforming on college campuses should also become something legally prohibited.

[An orthogonal point here is that people like yourself often argue that these people should not be able to write protests to the publisher (twitter). As per your own definition, wouldn't that count as infringement of their free speech? It's interesting how you readily support that views should not be removed, but condone that people should not be allowed to protest against views, or that people should not be allowed to write their point of views in emails and posts about twitter. Surely the right to advocate what you call 'censorship', falls under what you call 'free speech'?]

You do realize that you made a false assumption about my views here for weak probabalistic reasons, then proceeded to ascribe them to me? As a test: which logical fallacy is this? I've often seen this tactic online. There's even the same (il)logical structure, down to count and ordering of sentences. It's almost like it's deliberately taught to people!
