That this comment is being so aggressively downvoted proves that HN does not care about free speech FOR ALL.

Take all my karma. Downvote me into oblivion. Good good, let the hate flow through you.

Edit: I know what "free speech" means. I'm talking more generally about not silencing opposing voices.

Any metric will be gambled, and thus, the best metric is to correlate success with teams, and keep the good ones with rewards, while putting the problematic ones in quarantine among which people can still migrate.
Repaired Teams are moved out of quarantine, all without explanation. Success is only determined with "historical" distance - aka 1 or 2 years.

If the ride is charged to the user at the price of an elevated quote, but billed to the driver at the actual route... that's not fraud to you?
They should, and perhaps that's improved in recent years, but it was definitely a common problem as few as 3-4 years ago (from my experience, I've largely switched away from yellow cabs to Uber/Lyft - mostly because the price and experience are vastly more consistent)
Clickbait will always be clickbait. Hopefully the OP realizes the wrong in his ways and edits the title.
Regarding the link: there are many countries that went through sharp supply shocks and didn't experience hyperinflation. Hyperinflation is not the result of a supply shock; it is a result of a particular method of dealing with that shock (that is, raising the revenue through printing money aka segniorage taxation) getting out of hand.

Printing money is not by itself "evil" except in the eyes of several internet libertarians, and there is a reason it has been so popular: it is the easiest way to raise some money fast. It will always result in inflation, that's how it is paid. If the sovereign is sensible, that could also be how it ends.

Hyperinflation is quite another matter though: it is destructive to everyone, it is always a result of bad policy (that is, pushing segniorage beyond its' limits), and when and how it kicks in depends exactly on faith.

Depends what you mean by "off the grid".

I've been working on something that has some similarities. Its a mesh network of pest traps in the New Zealand bush. Battery life is very important, so each node sleeps most of the time, then periodically wakes up and communicates with its neighbours. Made more complex by devices not having real time clocks.

Once every node in the network is powered down most of the time, I don't think you can consider it a grid.
> What is true is that is the fully set of security features offered database systems are 1) not widely understood; 2) not bothered with by developers that choose to implement security elsewhere.

That statement applies to the full feature set of modern RDBMSes, not just the security features in particular.

I'm always surprised that I seem to be about the only one (or at least one of very few) on my devops team of ~30 who's comfortable with issuing SELECT statements on the production DB to investigate issues (and sometimes UPDATEs to clean up a mess that users made). And that's not even touching all the crazy stuff (stored procedures, triggers, access permissions), just CRUD (or in this case, INSERT-SELECT-UPDATE-DELETE).
Really? I'm no cheering fan of either, but do not see the comparison. Can you elaborate?
FYI the $800 fee is forfeited during the LLC's first year of operation. BUT it's based on calendar year IIRC, so if you're penny-pinching, it may be worth waiting until January to file the paperwork. That way you get all 12 months' worth!
Yeah I can see that, but they're running into the other problem now where 12GB is just not that much more than 11GB and certainly not worth the 100% price increase. At 16GB they would at least be offering ~50% more memory.
The later is too.
Its just renaming the same method and introducing a "objective" metric that is gambled again.
To get more unbiased input one might try something like http://www.allourideas.org/ . This method of priorisation and feedback gathering is much better than "more votes = higher priority". The downside is lack of comments/discussion.
You're confused. This has nothing to do with "free speech" rights. This is a confusion that many right-wingers seem to suffer from.

There's no "free speech" relevance when you act like an asshole, and people call you on it. It just means that you're being treated like an asshole should be treated.
Honestly there is not enough information given for us to give a lot of useful advice.

Here is some information we would need to give more helpful information:

- What type of positions / companies are you applying to? This is important, because I can imagine applying for dev jobs at small rails shops would be difficult because they are looking for people who can hit the ground running on day 0 (Ie: They are looking for rails at your last job).

- My parents do not live anywhere near tech jobs. Are you located near a good number of tech jobs where you can cast a wide net?
I wonder if they could look into using some of the DNS features currently being built by BlockStack?
Where would someone even see these terms of service unless they have already bought into the fiction? The terms of service on usage of the official Twitter client could apply (saying you can't reverse engineer it), but if you are reverse engineering something for straightforward interoperability there is a lot of precedent, including for extremely similar services (such as the AOL Instant Messenger Client); I think they would be hard pressed to do anything more than ban you, just you personally, from Twitter.

This article is extremely misleading. Even though these salaries might be high, they aren't adjusting for number of hours worked.

When we think of a typical "salaried" job, we think 40 hours/week. This is almost certainly not the case, even for the cushiest physician specialties.

My girlfriend is a critical care physician about to enter attending-hood
working at a university hospital. She will be working a minimum of 50 hours/week and with all the administrative tasks she's being asked to do, it'll probably be more like 60+.

Really we need to see hourly rates to get a better idea of what physicians actually make.
Purely a personal anecdote and single data point, however I would not recommend going to the coaching sessions in order to gauge the type/difficulty of the questions you will be asked in the interview. I've done this before and it was not representative whatsoever. If anything, it gave me a false sense of confidence because the questions were so simplistic.
Box2DJS is based on an old Flash port and as far as I remember it didn't work well when I tested it (for example second example on the website doesn't work currently, right click to switch to next example). I decided to directly port from C++ so that I can keep it updated.
This project is cool, but I'm more interested in future releases by the Askasha project.

Not a fan of Twitter, but kudos for doing the right thing here, whatever their motivations. Free speech is being attacked by the far right and the far left it seems these days. Lets keep this thread on the rails a bit and thank someone for taking the high road, no matter how expected it should be.

Free speech includes being an asshole. HNs voting algoritym is popular speech however. Lets not conflate.
If the government can demand records for "an investigation to ensure compliance with duties, taxes and fines and other customs and immigration matters", they can demand records for anyone else with similarly vague justifications. It's fortunate that there are organizations like Twitter willing to take a stand against it, I guess many others would just hand over the data.

You appear confused about what is "moral", as well. Let me give you a hint: defending politically-protected rights to anonymously criticize the government is moral, and defending hate speech is not moral.
Actually, I'd challenge us to ask ourselves, what do we think emulating HTML elements on a pixel-level actually is exactly? A client-side application rendering layer like X, or Wayland, etc.?

Think of VNC or remote desktop. This is basically an interactive moving image representation of server-side state and logic, which takes inputs from the user in the form of clicks, mouse movements, keyboard input etc. and pipes it to a server which is doing all the rendering and feeding images back to the client.

Now, if you are simply rendering images in the browser that are as good as HTML elements, the only difference between that and VNC really is the presence of client side state, client side event management and response, and somewhat increased interactivity of the client side with the local machine. Otherwise, you are simply collecting user inputs and producing outputs as a function of client/server state interactions and behaviors.

Personally, I see an interesting trend. For example, React seems to be about custom components that have client side local state and event handling, whereas things like Redux seem to be about gracefully handling the interactions between client/server state and behaviors. This same pattern appears in some way in Angular, Vue, etc. - two-way databinding, injection of services representing server-side objects, etc.

Also, consider things like WebAssembly, which will essentially provide an optimized VM in the browser closely linked to Javascript. What do we get when we cross improved client/server side state and behavior interactions plus optimized run-time environment in the client?

I think it's basically like the UI of the application runs in the client (whereas VNC was just an image of the application running), the client handles some of the processing logic and the server handles the rest, often manipulating the view of the user and coordinating that with the user's input.

All this, and it only takes a server, server application, server protocol, client application, client VM, client app/scripting language and client styling.

Looking into the future, this architecture seems to be presented as something that is the future - for example, look at Electron apps or WPF - they actually have a lot in common in some ways. Electron - node, Chrome, HTML, CSS, JS. WPF - UI host/application main loop, XAML, styling, C#...

I also think isomorphic Javascript concepts (write in one language, this code runs in the client, this code runs on the server) are going to make a massive leap forward when WebAssembly hits (shortly!!!) [1].

Exciting times in my opinion.

I obviously don't understand the specifics, but if they are later owned by someone else, is that new someone considered a third party?

For instance, doesn't this mean that a hypothetical future 23andMe drowning in debit could be acquired by a company who could use the data for all sorts of terrible things without ever technically selling it to a third party?
That's been the one reason for a sliver of optimism so far. He obviously wants to be a strongman, but he's so incompetent that maybe he can't pull it off.
I'm at grad school currently, and all recent graduates I know who wanted to get a job at top SV companies studied really hard for SE interviews. And even after all that studying, most of them didn't pass technical interviews at big 4.

We are talking about solid knowledge of algorithms and data structures. If you haven't just gotten an A in that class you will need a while to really hammer it down.
Id be interested to hear what the difference is.

By moniculture, are you saying that adopting systemd leaves you vulnerable to cross-distro vulnerabilities hitting a bunch of systems all at once? (Most of my knowledge on the downsides of monoculture come from Irish history) Or are you pointing to something else?
I'm by no means a Lojban expert, but some fiddling with http://jbovlaste.lojban.org leads me to "vilti'a" for "storm", a combination of "tcima" (x1 is weather/a meteorological phenomenon [at place x2]) and "vlile" (x1 is violent/in a state of violence). You can then further refine this, e.g. by adding "lindi" (x1 is a lightning/electical arc) to get "lidvilti'a" for a thunderstorm [at place x2].
Who would know besides twitter and the account owner?
I think it sometimes gets lost that there's a difference between being harshly critical of another group's opinions, and threatening or harming another group. There are multiple ways in which they're different, and they're not both free speech (IMO).

This is a great explanation of the destructive consequences of what's called Stack Ranking (I think Intel still does it).

Even if you're a sociopath and don't understand the reasons outlined in the article: how do you figure out what "average" is? Lines of code? Bugs fixed? Even if you had a meaningful metric, evolutionary pressure would cause people to select for it, which isn't what you want (you want a diversity of skills).
I agree with them for not removing this person. Twitter should be a free speech platform. Unfortunately they've proven remarkably inconsistent in the application, and people on the right are going to call this hypocritical. While it may or may not be true it does, on the surface, appear to be that way. I hope that moving forward Twitter can aspire to be a true free speech platform where they don't remove anyone for criticism or parody of public figures, but I won't get my hopes up.
There's no difference between the two in regards to morale; you'll encourage gaming of metrics in either case. You shouldn't fire people simply for being lowest performer on the team because there will always be a lowest and thus someone is always in fear of being fired even though their work may be just fine. Any place that does this shit will have shit for morale. It's plain stupid.
Would HN be so proud of Twitter if they had refused to disclose the owner of an alt right account?
Oh look. A good idea.
Nah, Im not confusing your argument, I'm saying that the changing date format inhibits composability.

The truth is that shell is partly composable but with many concessions for friendly interactive use.

You could remove the compromises but it would not be much fun to use.
I think that's handled separately during the connection phase.
interesting phrase. did you coin it?
There's a payment threshold of $100 before you can cash out. This is an adsense thing and applies for the Google website adverts too.
Ask HN: Experience DigitalOcean stolen cpu is very high?
Hi HN,

I heard good thing about DigitalOcean and try it out recently. I replay my production traffic on same specs and too my suprise. I constantly have 50% stolen cpu. I'm using 16GB/8core instances.

I don't know if anyone has same experience? I tried to spin up many servers to hope I can get move to a less noisy underlying host. but the result remains.

Anyone has that high stolen cpu on DigitalOcean?
And while apologists may bring up the Yiannopolis case as an example of hypocrisy, let's keep in mind that Twitter is free to censor speech how it sees fit. The US government is explicitly not.
Morality as you define it. What's funny is how all the free speech supporters were so quiet when Milo was banned from speaking at CPAC. Nobody has any principles, it's all political.
Hate speech is free speech. I think you're the confused one.

I will reserve my kudos and thanks, of course its easier if you take the high road when the account concurs with your political views. If they can take this road, esp. when they oppose those political views then respect, kudos and thanks will be showered.
I don't like what the guy said in his Twitter tree account, but I hate the idea of a police state much, much more.

Free speech doesn't mean all speech is right. It just means we don't trust the government to be the arbiter of what is good or bad speech. That's how it should be - people making their own decisions about what to believe.

Free speech includes being an asshole and not being jailed for it; it doesn't include the absence of other consequences.
All that happens; but (1) corporate failure costs largely fall on the stakeholders of the corporation (yes bailouts etc. happen; they don't change the basic principle), and as a result (2) corporate money-losing projects in general fail faster than those managed by a government, with resources getting eventually reallocated to more productive purposes.
It's very similar to that Jobs and Wozniak story, about how Jobs scored a contract and split it with Wozniak, and much later found out that the contract was actually for a way higher price and Jobs pocketed almost all of it.

Weird to see "hacker" news full of people defending Jobs/Uber, but I guess it is what it is.
LOL. I certainly won't continue if you just imitate me with more inane bullshit in your reply.
The primary difference, and the reason why capitalist economy beats centralized planning[0] is that it scales much better, by making it so that a lot of details solve "themselves". I.e. capitalism depends on most of the minutiae decisions to be made by market feedback loops - instead of e.g. explicitly setting it so that factory A produces X components, so that factories B and C could use them to make Y goods, capitalism lets the factories just run on a free market, and in time, an equilibrium of supply and demand will form.

That said, planning on top-level is still needed and still done. The point of setting up feedback loops isn't to let them run unchecked, but to make it easier to control the whole system (including keeping it stabilized). Just like it would be stupid to build a thermostat without input, having the temperature be determined by the point at which the materials it's made of start to "sweat", you don't want to leave market totally unchecked, doing whatever the hell it wants. Governments still get to influence the market, the same way a temperature dial influences the thermostat.
