Huh, I started that premise and I'm continuing to argue it. You might be thrown off by HN's busted comment nesting.

If my last comment wasn't clear, I think the dent in revenue would be considerable for fully open-sourcing Sublime as it would make it too easy for people to patch out the nag.
Most indexes are fairly predictable, so the changes are usually frontrunnered by index funds and traders.
Unfortunately Atom is not on par with VSCode considering responsiveness.

There are a few more issues, Emanuel Quimper summarized in: https://equimper.github.io/2017/02/25/why-i-moved-away-from-... explaining why he moved from Atom to VSCode in detail.

A month ago there was an interesting submission in favor of Sublime Text 3. Mainly because of its incredible responsiveness: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13928752 by Tristan Hume, comparing Vim, Spacemacs, Atom and Sublime Text. I highly recommend it.

My workflow now looks like this: VSCode+Plugins replaces my zsh+tmux+vim toolchain when running on AC. On battery zsh+tmux+vim provide VSCode+Plugins functionality with less beautiful gfx but unmatchable battery lifetime.

The zsh+tmux+vim toolchain is heavily customized, though: https://github.com/rscircus/dotfiles

That shows a great sense of self awareness, and objective reasoning. I wish more people did that. :)
Why?

Per the article in the Guardian, the Independent Police Complaints Commission is investigating the claims.

I'll note that the corroboration was passwords of politically active people, which frankly doesn't do anything to implicate law enforcement. This may well simply be yet another "whistleblower" attempting to sow distrust of any authorities who are not beholden to their own influence.
How those two options are chosen is even more insane.

Read up on the primaries, especially for the democrats. They're absolutely archaic (in some states we're talking about voting for candidates by physically being in a room and moving around for head-counts). As evidenced by Clinton, they are additionally vulnerable to corruption and abuse.

This article doesn't really go into it, but a huge problem with Clinton's campaign was fallout from scandals incurred during her fight with with Sanders. e.g. Debbie Wasserman Schultz was DNC chair during most of the primaries. The DNC chair is supposed to be impartial, but her actions were so egregious that she was eventually forced to resign. She was then immediately hired by Clinton's campaign. You can't make this stuff up!

I'm not american and rarely follow their elections closely, but this last one was a non-stop scandal factory, and that would have been the case even without Trump! For all I've ragged on Clinton and the Democrats here, the Republican side of things is even more insane. Give it another few years and there are going to be some absolute page-turners in the history section about this debacle of an election. One has to wonder how both parties are going to reform their primary processes in the near future.
How to manage the entire infrastructure from a single point
So we should just accept a verifiable stupid state of affairs because there's probably a good thing on the flip side? Never mind that part of looking out for someone's interests could well be expected to include coming up with a way of doing so that doesn't require your members to behave in a verifiably stupid way?

We usually call that "ideological blinkers".
On the other hand you could probably find ways to make the algorithms less racist than their human equivalent. No system is totally unbiased but doing better than what we have is possible.
Clinton also won the popular vote by 2,864,974 votes. A few tens of thousands of voters in a couple states would've turned this entire narrative on its head. Flagged for the same reasons that all of the other—sometimes much better—political articles that end up on the front page get flagged.

I don't think market conditions have much to do with it. Whether to invest in the market, or in a certain asset class, is a separate decision from whether to pick stocks or buy a passively managed fund.

Passively managed money has been increasing because there are more low-cost funds available, and lots of education about stock picking versus passively managed funds (e.g. Warren Buffet, A Random Walk).

> The message to open source developers is toil for decades and any marketing savvy VC funded company can take your work to market and basically erase your contributions and no one will hold them to account.

I don't want to make a political message here, but this is essentially the risk you take with a more permissive license. Someone absolutely can come along and build a product that subsumes yours. They can create proprietary extensions that you can not use, essentially gaining the benefit of your work without having to return the same favour. Basically, you then have to compete against yourself.

With a copyleft style license, it is much harder (though not completely impossible) for someone to do that. You will most likely be able to use their extensions and will be able to compete on a basis of who is executing better.

There are serious downsides to copyleft style licenses for things like containerisation, though. The barrier to entry is really large and you are going to cut out a lot of players who could help you. So it's really a matter of strategy. But if you are going for a permissive license, you'd better have all your ducks in a row because you should expect something like this to happen.

Free and open source business models are still pretty naive these days and I think it's going to take a few more decades before we have a really good idea of the best way to proceed.

If this was illegal surveillance, then obviously it wasn't within the scope of what's allowed by said anti-terror laws.

This doesn't add up for me yet, because I don't understand what the supposed motive is. Do the police have much interest in journalists accounts? I mean really, what's the thinking here? Are London police ignoring murders of journalists? The UK is hardly an autocracy.

Frankly we should wait to see what the IPCC says. This could easily be entirely fabricated, the only corroboration was information that would be accessible to cybercriminals, not anything that implicates law enforcement specifically.
That sounds a lot like stress. Maybe you need to take a break or shift down a gear or two?
There are a lot of fucking cameras in London - they didn't get taken down in 2012. Of course I'm fine with the cameras so ymmv.

Also, plenty of police vans with ANPR systems to check on cars etc as they drive about.

As for the rest, sometimes I wonder if people on HN have forgotten what the real world is like. Is encryption evil? Clearly not. Does it being prevalent cause issues with intercepting terrorist/criminal communications? Probably. So, sure, the prime minister said something which doesn't stand up to scrutiny - as have most politicians and indeed people. Just because someone is wrong doesn't mean that they've ill intentions.
> Isn't that exactly the main criticism of current H1B system: driving down salaries and standard of living away from U.S. standards down towards India's?

The issue, of course, is that you can have only one of these 2 things :

1) a global market, easy international travel/living

2) Americans making significantly more than the global average (which I might add is $200/month in actual dollars, $1480 in PPP dollars) (this essentially means you can buy $1480 worth of (cheap) food with it, but only $200 worth of iPads)

Which is going to win here ? There can only be one answer, sadly.
Still an interesting suggestion to look into, init?

You might not believe it is fact, but I for one think it's reasonable to give The Guardian the benefit of the doubt here and have a long hard look at these programs, if only because it has a non-zero chance of being true and only costs time to look into.
One of the things that I've noticed about the javascript community is that they're re-inventing stuff from previous technologies - sometimes badly - but almost always with a willful ignorance of what has gone before.

While this doesn't look like a bad idea - what they've done is to re-invent stored procedures. Back in the original object orientated wars this turned out to be a mixed blessing. You could get quite sharp performance, but reasoning about the application logic became harder. It might be nice if this kind of issue was at least acknowledged in the article.
I came to the US on an H1-B to fill a position that was open for 2 years. They simply could not find a qualified candidate. I don't have a PhD, and I wasn't educated in the United States.

I was hired because of all the extra-curricular projects I pursued in electrical engineering, embedded systems, and most notably, security. There is nothing _at all_ preventing an American from doing what I do, but my field is dominated by Europeans. It could be laws, it could be culture. Whatever it is, American companies need these skills and they can't find them in the US.

I'm leaving that part out, because it obfuscates things. In one interpretation "Authorized Participants" on the exchanges keep the number of available "coupons"/shares at a fixed number.

So the market depth for any ETF should be constant, regardless of the value of the underlying assets (assuming non-extreme values and outside of crashes or rapid movements).

And yes, to be more exact, the market depth for an ETF should be a function of the amount of trading occuring in that ETF, not so much a constant. In any reasonable timeframe it should be constant.

Exactly. If union rules had been written down, even in 2005, developers would be forbidden from writing, possibly even running, tests, lest they take away the jobs of the testers. Unit testing would in practice be illegal, never mind (gasp) DevOps.
The presidential election is not just A or B. You have to remember that US elections are a two step process. First there is the primary and then there is the general election. In this election people had a bigger choice of candidates than they've had in a long time (17 republicans and 6 democrats). Before the first vote was cast most people would have said that 3-4 Republicans and 2 Democrats had a realistic shot at winning the nominations, and the candidate that actually won wasn't even on that short list.

Also worth remembering that most of these candidates had different enough views that in most countries they'd be representing different parties. So first the electorate decides what kind of candidate they want representing each side of the spectrum and then they decide which side of the spectrum they want.
> British subjects

Virtually nobody is a British subject, we are citizens.

There are only two cases where you can be a British subject: if you were born in the Republic of Ireland before 1949 and claimed British subject status before 1983, or if you were born in a British colony that gained independence but you didn't become a citizen of the new country.
This is really cool. I love how those "stuping, time wasting" games turn out to be - with a help from some smart individual - great learning tools.
Not as embarrassing as your comment I'm afraid. I'd refrain from commenting like that in the future.
Scala more complex than C++?
O'rly?

* C++ language specification: 1374 pages (and still includes plenty of "unspecified behavior" / "undefined behavior")

* Java language specification: 788 pages

* Scala language specification: 191 pages

> Odersky himself gave up on scalac and he's writing a compiler and a new language from scratch.

Odersky created a new language to be able to do research without sacrificing Scala stability, which is already mainstream and should not undergo any more major revolutions. So Dotty is for research / incubating language features, while Scala stays on the stable side of things, letting companies like Twitter or LinkedIn develop without fear that 2.13 will not compile their 2.12 code.

> also poorly designed overall

This is an opinion, not a fact.

> With so many features that they interact with each other in ways that are pretty much unpredictable.

Name three. I'm coding in it for several years, and didn't notice a single one issue. I heard this complaint about Scala being too hard a few times very long time ago (when Scala was at version 2.6, and its tooling was in fact terrible), but it was always from programmers, who had also major problems coding in Java, so I never treated this seriously.
Its an issue when you self censor opinions which deviate from the mass. It also an issue of freedom of press. The government know who you talk to through metadata collection even if you use encryption.
I can say the same of your system.

You effectively have 2 parties, but they don't exist until after the election. You don't know what they will be. Your 12, the ones you voted for, make dirty deals with each other to "form a government". About half of the original 12 get assigned to the loser party, and half to the winner party. The goals of the winner party are not determined when you vote, because the party doesn't exist until after the election.

Suppose 11 parties each get 5% for a total of 55%, and 1 party gets 45% all by itself. That party with 45% might team up with a couple others and thus take control... or maybe everybody else hates them, so they are the loser despite being 9x more popular than any other party.

You don't even get to choose who is the primary person running your country. That person is picked as part of the dirty deal-making that creates 2 parties from 12.
My siblings in this thread need to learn about the reforms that were done post-Watergate. The rule of law governs everyone, especially law enforcement, in the USA. If you don't believe that, why do you think lawmakers bother with getting laws passed to allow surveillance in the first place?

You can't have it both ways. Either LEO follow the letter of the law and we're not in some 1984 scenario (because there are, in fact, substantial protections for privacy under the law), or they do not, and we're left with this mystery of why things like the USA PATRIOT Act exist, which now needs to be explained.
Very nice dark main page, but the others have a different brighter (ouch!) theme, and the Examples one renders badly here (small netbook, Palemoon 27.2.1 on Debian amd64) due to high pitched fonts. Examples code blocks also do not use the same font size so I believe it's just a matter of fixing the theme. Other pages look nice despite the small screen size I'm using right now.
You mean, like an election?
I also found this fascinating. I never really saw CRPG being used as an acronym however I have always and always will specify "computer based role playing game" where appropriate vs cerebral role playing games involving books, cards or thoughts/conversations.

> London doesn't have "blocks".

I don't think they meant "block" in the usual American sense, but in the general sense, that is: "an area".

> Surveillance vans are a myth.

Simply Wrong.

Surveillance vans are not a myth, honestly. Maybe not in the what the police would call the "plebian" areas, but in the centre and Canary Wharf, you can see them every now and then, they even have their own WiFi you can try and connect to, which has like 3 password fields (I've tried when I was passing one in Canary Wharf).

> Sure there is plenty of CCTV but most of its is privately owned and operated

No evidence for this, and I think the parent comment meant "street-level" CCTV, not in buildings, and i'de be pushed to say it's more weighted towards public CCTV (govt.) rather than private.
My grandma had Parkinson's disease, she is about 80 years old it was detected 7 years ago. it was getting more difficult to live for her, because of stiff muscles she can't even move. L-dopa and carbidopa medicines are given, but won"t give much relief. She can"t eat food and the skin is damaging forming ganglia. This is may be the last stage of disease.. nothing was really working to help her condition. Finally she started on parkinson's herbal formula i purchased from Health Herbal Clinic, i read alot of positive reviews from other patients who used the parkinson's herbal treatment. she used the herbal remedy for 7 weeks, its effects on parkinson's is amazing, all her symptoms gradually faded away, she feed very more freely by herself now! (Visit www. healthherbalclinic. weebly. com or email at healthherbalclinic@ gmail. com) I recommend this Parkinson's herbal formula for all Parkinson's Patients.

I don't understand how companies like that can thrive (but many do). If I have to pick up the phone to solve a problem even once, I'm angry. If I have to call them twice, I'm looking at alternatives. I may decide not to switch if the alternatives are even worse...but, I'm looking to get out of the shitty relationship I find myself in with that company. (This frustration is fresh in my mind because Security Metrics just told me to call them about PCI compliance...I refused, and will be going elsewhere for that service.)

Big finance seems particularly bad at user-facing technology. Which doesn't really give me confidence in their back end tech.

Most of them are in front of grocers and markets. They make food, sometimes pay for the access to the stream of people, and generally make it a better market - or they're friends with the owners of the market. That's my impression at least - I'll ask some local friends.

I'm not sure why you're conflating share price and number of employees with wealth distribution? (not to mention it looks from a casual glance as though it's been largely flat 2014-2017)

In many ways you'd expect a company that dropped a lot of employees to improve it's profitability due to reducing costs, and if it's more profitable it ought to be worth more right? Obviously it's a trade off, ie no R&D means no new products means it's going to run out of things to sell eventually and that should reduce expected future cashflows and thus value etc etc.
