Not really. In fact overwhelmingly not. It is a huge discussion (not a single thread, by the way) where a lot of people ask for a lot of things, many of which M. Schaller does not mention at all. M. Schaller got just 9 things out of a Hacker News discussion that now spans 4 pages. Here are just a few of the things from the discussion that M. Schaller omitted entirely, giving some indication of the range of stuff that people asked about.

HTTPS works in most places too.

Edit: the HTTP vs HTTPS is interesting. My guess is because it is slightly cheaper to use HTTP and they serve a fuck load of music. But this only saves you from MITM attacks. People can still grab music out of their cache. So confusing.

would be interesting to get that integrated with Prometheus remote storage.
Well, for me the big one is that R Notebooks work cleanly with revision control systems like git.

That said, both Jupyter and R Markdown Notebooks are but a pale shadow of the support offered by Org-mode (seriously!).
I mean neo-nazis are largely interested only in the racial policies of the NSDAP anyway, so it's not that far off base.
I suspect the reason it's called "umami", and not "savory", is that Japanese researchers were the ones to actually isolate and characterize the taste buds involved, so they went with the Japanese word. Same reason physicists who create new elements and biologists who discover new species get the naming rights.

You're dead-on about the name, "World's Best", though. Proclaiming your awesomeness is actually a counter-signal. Like all the "Famous" and "Original" hot dog and pizza places in NYC.
You are mostly speaking of the potential external impact of personal decisions. This is almost completely antithetical to politics. If I'm not proselytizing about Star Trek or even Christianity, there is nothing political about it.

Even if one buys into your premise, your examples are quite notably biased and there is an obvious left wing analogue to each of your right wing boogeymen.
The other more mainstream word for that concept is Balance of Performance. That is generally considered a dirty word amongst most racing purists.

And the legalities of that.

FB did a major legal smackdown on someone trying to do that.
>Did Reddit’s April Fool’s gag solve the issue of online hate speech?

I certainly hope that doesn't become a widely accepted solution; To me (I didn't participate but have read about the event) it seems like their solution was to

A) marginalize each individual's impact/voice

B) moderate heavily to remove offensive things

This doesn't just remove "hate-speech", this removes anything unpopular.

On a related note, I wonder how much did RL change things like day-trading?
As the other poster said, Hispanic people in general are extremely socially conservative and religious. They vote reliably Democrat because the GOP panders to white racists and people with anti-hispanic-immigration feelings. As soon as that changes and the GOP embraces them, they're going to be a very reliable GOP voting bloc; all the GOP has to do is promise to end abortion and pander to Catholicism, and they'll get their votes automatically.

"Progressive" liberal politics are on a strong downward trend in the US. The people having kids are mostly very conservative and religious, and the immigrants from the south are very conservative and religious. The anti-immigrant bias from the GOP is likely temporary.
Did no one else have boomer parents who refused to talk about finances, even when asked point blank? Mine said it wasn't something you discussed with your children, and that was a common viewpoint where I grew up.
The cancer you're talking about, Breast Implant-Associated Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma (BIA-ALCL), generally resolves with removal of the implants, though it's a new entity, so we're certainly still learning about it. The odds that breast implants are unique in causing this peculiar biological response seems low, from a basic science perspective.

I thought about mentioning it in my original comment, but it's so rare that it seemed somewhat sensationalist to even bring it up.
I have zero experience in web development so I decided to start a self project to learn some of the basics of front-end and back-end development and server management. So I created a home server to host machine learning capabilities.

I set up a Linux web server with an Angular front end that users can create an account and log in. From there they can use the web UI to design and create deep neural networks. Currently it supports autoencoder, fully connected, convolution, and a host of other network layers. The user can also upload data and train the network. The server hosts a nVidia GTX1080 GPU to train and run the network. The website was served using Flask and Tensorflow was used to create the networks. Successful models could also be deployed as an API endpoint.

My final solution wasn't very scalable but I learned a lot from it!
You must disabuse yourself of the notion that it's the job of the police to enforce the law. It's their job to enforce order.
It's not hard to make a bot do worse, however in many games there are no bots that play well without cheating.

Watch some StarCraft/StarCraft2 bots, it seems like an easy challenge, but they can't beat a good human player when they have to deal with the fog of war.

PS: Multi drone scouting tanks your economy and becomes a really bad idea. You want to send out one scout that can both gather useful information, not die, and not significantly hurt your economy. To the point where some very high level players don't always scout early.

> The admin may look simple on the surface, but it’s shockingly complex and represents a ton of work.

This matches my experience. I can't escape the feeling that 90% of that complexity is irrelevant at best, and counterproductive at worst, for my current use-case -- but I haven't quite mustered the bravery to write my own custom admin site for my app.

I wonder if DRF's CoreAPI schemas would make this easier, since you can now auto-generate a JS client for your API models, so you just need to wire up routers and views for your CRUD.
It seems insanely optimistic to suppose that any licensing requirement implemented in scope of the current regime would be anything but will anything other than food stamps for whomever manages develops and implements licensing and manages the training process not least of which bureaucracies in schools.

Google has 57,000 employees. There is always going to be some good, some bad, in an organization that size.

The Project Zero team is excellent and we should all be grateful for their work. But we should also continue to hold Google's feet to the fire on the state of Android security, since it is truly a mess, and they are probably the only player to have the power and ability to fix it.

I've very mixed feelings about KSR. His ideas are interesting and worth thinking about, but I've always found his writing style unbearably flat and boring. I really wanted to read the Mars trilogy, but gave up after the first volume, the writing was so dull and lifeless.

Thanks for the comments. I (not the author, but a co-worker) mentioned in another comment that we are working on more benchmarks that we hope to share soon, particularly in regards to read performance. We've seen some impressive speed-ups for aggregates grouped by time intervals, but we're still a bit early in our tuning on the query optimizations to give out more numbers. Again, hopefully in the next few weeks.

Space requirements can admittedly be a bit higher than some other time-series databases or column stores. Since disk is cheaper than memory, and with easy ways of doing retention, we think its a worthwhile trade-off for people for now. But compression is something we will look to down the road. For our later benchmarks we will include memory/space comparisions to help people evaluate.

As for node splitting, our clustering solution (not yet released) is being worked on quite a bit as well. When its closer to being ready we'll include our thoughts on how to best manage your partitions.
I’m working on an open source verb conjugator for different languages, currently in Korean and Hindi. The conjugator will take in a verb and a grammar form and output the conjugated word. For example, the future form of ‘하다’(to do) should return ‘할꺼야’(will do). This API will come handy for people who are learning a new language or, if you’re like me, building a language learning app. It gives us the flexibility to create learning materials like flashcards. The project is still in its early stage, available at https://github.com/llipio/conjugator.
I worked at a game company that (among other things) made “retro” game collections of Capcom and Atari games for PS2 and Xbox 360. Even they didn’t have the source code for most of the smaller titles; we had to reverse nearly all of them.

I hope they eventually respond. I think Facebook does take a few weeks to actually do anything. They aren't so good in the "customer service" department. They had banned a website of mine where I share links often, and I think it took almost a month for them to remove it from their ban list. The website is mostly family-friendly, and for the parts that its not, it certainly did not warrant a ban from Facebook.

Homosexuals are just as bad as Nazis. What a great world view you liberals have.
This is a bit off topic, but I feel that Swagger etc... and actually most API docs are to human centric. You can't auto chain APIs together without a lot of developer intervention.

> Sadly unless you normalize the cars we may never see true racing as you say.

For interesting single-make racing, you can watch the GP2 and GP3 races before/after the F1 race and qualifying (for European races, and a few others).

Traditionally, multi-make series have been called "Formula" series in racing lingo.
I used to do that. Then I realized I just can attach a nice display and a keyboard to the "server" and make things even more convenient.
If I ruled the world, F1 cars would not be allowed to use any electronics other than in safety systems. Something about a computer taking the place of clever mechanics sucks the joy out of it.
Free software offers a spectrum of quality and innovation; and you've picked the worst of it.

I use a desktop (i3), package manager (nix), editor (Emacs), programming language (GHC Haskell), file system (ZFS), bidirectional sync (unison) and security​ (gnupg) that are collectively far more innovative, powerful and stable than anything Apple have ever produced.

Of course, if you are specifically looking for consumer tech, ease of use and support, then open source probably isn't for you.
I really like the idea of HATEOAS but I have never seen hypermedia controls done in the wild across any companies I've worked for nor on any client projects. I think it's very cool but a lot of development patterns don't consider it.
"Roman records directly attest such measuring of recruits, although determining the exact height requirement is problematic. Vegetius gives the minimum standard, or incomma, as “6 [Roman] feet [178 cm.] or 5 feet 10 inches [ca. 173 cm.] among the auxiliary cavalry or the [soldiers] of the legionary first cohort.”15 Although both Fritz Wille and N.P. Milner see Vegetius’s figures as an optimum and a minimum figure respectively, the expression incommam . . . exactam strongly suggests a regulation height.16 Vegetius may mean that cavalrymen must be 6 feet and soldiers of the first cohort five foot ten. In any case, these are clearly height requirements for elite sol- diers and not for the entire military. Praetorian Guardsmen probably had a higher minimum height than rank and file legionaries until the Septimius Severus started recruiting the latter into the imperial guard at the end of the second century.17"

Page 9 of that same book.

During the later Marian Reforms the height requirements were extended to the rest of the legions including the auxiliaries.
That book however doesn't cover that period.

Mobile Application Profiling – Part1
Don't know what "dutchy" is supposed to mean but those are the king and queen.
My theory about most of Ballard's "sci-fi" was that he just liked to throw his characters in (or immediately after) some world-shifting event (mostly in the sense of "catastrophe") and see what kind of neurosis or madness would emerge from the new environment.
So the external environment was mostly a backdrop for the development of the characters' mental maladies.

It's pretty rare to find a character in Ballard's stories who acts "rationally" and usually (at least in my experience) the few that do tend to look alien/mad because they are still using human logic and common sense in a world that has obviously moved in a totally different direction.
Unlimited vacation comes down to placing the burden of taking time off on the employee. It's mostly there to deter employees from taking time off and to keep a competitive environment. "X left for 30 days last year, Y only 15. Y seems to be more invested in their work."

Don't let this fool you, it's more often a trap than it's not.

I play on hard or harder if possible, and yet F.E.A.R. still wasn't that challenging.

I found the enemies to be less dumb than your usual cannon fodder, but you'd mulch through them pretty fast if that was your goal. They did try a lot harder than those in other games, which was nice, but they weren't that much of an obstacle. Their patterns are somewhat predictable, so you can often anticipate where they're going to go, or what they're going to do.

The problem with the F.E.A.R. AI is they don't necessarily adapt to the player like real people will. You can do the same thing a hundred times and they'll fall for the same trick.

Getting ambushed? Well, poke out, draw their attention, and fall back to a more advantageous position. Human players would just wait it out, they know you have to go through there, but the AI, ironically, gets impatient. Their goal is to kill you, not to defend things.

I'd like an AI that gets wise to my tricks, that starts to react differently. If you're using grenades frequently they might field more heavily armored troops. If you're sniping they might snipe back. That'd force you to adapt, to switch it up, to avoid becoming predictable.

The problem is that requires a pretty robust AI to manage troops and a deeper objective than "kill player".
I agree, but it is funny you say that because I (and I imagine many others who didn't go to college) received my fair share of having people drive home the point that I was going to be a failure in life. How I was making the mistake. I knew better, but still, having to listen to it constantly through my younger years was not exactly a pleasant experience. I distinctly remember a few well intentioned lectures about how I needed a degree to get a good job, even though I was making a six figure income while they were telling me that! In hindsight it is kind of funny, but being flat out told you did it wrong, as you point out here, is still not a nice feeling no matter how you slice it.

> With the high cost of college I would argue making mistakes has become much more expensive than it used to be.

I don't know. The biggest cost of college is still, far and away, the time cost. I don't think that is getting any more expensive in the average case. A degree still roughly takes about the same amount of time as it always has. Other associated costs have definitely risen, but are a drop in the bucket compared to the total cost.
I think your traffic analogy is poor. The results of failure are quite different. In one the pedestrian might die, because physic... in the other a different solution to the transportation problem needs to be found for a temporary period.

Driving on a suspended license was not the only choice, rides, public transport, or even simply requesting a close court date. She might even have been able to get some kind of special waiver, until it was sorted out, by taking the time to try to sort it out.

Her choice to capitulate in the beginning caused her 20 years of misery and potential affecting her ability to vote. It also made it harder to fix because now there is a "proof" she drives unsafely, who knows what this did to her insurance rates.

More than that, I think they've only just realised they have a serious problem, and just started the MacPro redesign process within the last month or so.

So this is a panic PR move to stop core content creator loyalists jumping ship. If they were further advanced they'd be previewing stuff, not just bumping the trashcan specs a little.

I'm still not sure this is very developer friendly. Developers are a niche within a niche, although a disproportionately influential one. Developers probably care more about the MBP than the MacPro, and the MBP is where it is.

For the MP - I would guess we'll see previews in the autumn, with shipping early next year.

I think the middle ground there is not "one engine for everybody" but probably "one set of rules for a long time". The money game is really worst with this set of ever changing regulations, which favors large development budgets for rapid adoption. If regulations stay the same for 10-15 years, there can be learning and progress and technological competition even for the smaller teams.
