The stampede to React has probably gone too far but it was very much a reaction to the domination of Angular which from personal experience had made web development a nightmare.

React proved you didn't need a huge overbearing framework to get things done Vue and Riot takes this even further (even if Riot predates React)
I know the law has a complicated relationship with logic, but in normal usage, Uber's claim that it is no longer interested in LIDAR, even if taken at face value, clearly has no bearing on the question of whether it was party to an earlier theft of LIDAR-related documents.
I'd think it comes from paper:

check any:

[ ] choice

[ ] choice

[ ] choice

check answer number x:

(1) choice

(2) choice

(3) choice

Squares for checkboxes, circles for arround number choices

So I'd argue circles go better with enumaration. Square is better chan circles for checkboxes, because it's more obvious that it is a frame when something can be placen inside, while a circle can more easily be mistaken for a stand-alone shape.

Thank you. I have looked around the store and they seem to have extensions that allow people to entirely block results and also add things to them/after them. I'm hoping this means I might be safe :)

If I could afford an attorney I would.
As Michael Lustfield said in Debian bug #790623 in October 2015.
I think this demonstrates that no matter who is in charge of the definition of "terrorism", "terrorism" just means "The Bad Guys", except when Sen. Lindsey Graham uses it, and then it means "The Supervillians!".

I'm guessing that the Russian government doesn't like Witnesses because of either than anti-war attitude, or the won't-salute-the-flag attitude. Those are the aspects that usually put a bur under government's saddles. In any case, ordinary Witness practice might be irritating, but it's not violent. The lack of violence prevents the usual definition of "terrorism" from applying.
I struggle to imagine how I would build a site that only works in Opera, even if I were trying to.

It depends whether you're myopic or the opposite. Things are blurred for me (myopia) on the red side of the spectrum, but blue is sharp; Other people have sharp reds and blurred blues.
Two things there...

1. If PHP coders did component driven development it might not be so bad, the problem is most PHP apps mix code and HTML in a way that resembles speggeti so we (I've tought a lot of PHP courses) teach separation of concerns as to encourage maintainable code.

2. In React you're not really supposed to (as a matter of best practice) mix presentation and business logic. Typically most components are for presentation only with business logic done via event handlers and props. If you need state you should wrap your display component in a business logic component (typically called a container in the Redux world).
500K for oil in us jobs, at 36% of energy. It's 4% for wind. By 2050 it's projected wind could support 600K jobs so we aren't talking orders of magnitude difference.
> And if reports are to believed, Russia's meddling is behind Brexit...

D'oh. There was me thinking I made the decision on my own, I even researched loads of topics by buying books and stuff, only to find out on HN that those meddling Ruskies did it all along. I will agree with you on pipelines though.
It's worth noting that at least where I am (Australia), taxi owners/operators don't pay minimum wages to their independent contractor drivers. The business model of the incumbent taxi services is fundamentally not really different from Uber's.
>Can you recommend an application that would allow me to select for example the words "distant particles can be correlated in ways that are impossible for classical objects" and find out what lead to that discovery? Or what does "Bell inequality" really mean? If not, are there recommended methods of understanding articles better?

Venkman: Ray, pretend for a moment that I don't know anything about metallurgy, engineering, or physics, and just tell me what the hell is going on.

Stantz: You never studied.

(Ghostbusters)

Just studying the principles -- e.g. reading an entry level Physics/QM book, would be better and more solid than surfing around, or asking for opinions on forums (which you couldn't evaluate anyway -- tons of bogus opinions in any kind of forum), or googling stuff.

Stuff like "Bell's inequality" are so basic that merely surfing and skimming wouldn't help (it would be all a kind of concept soup in the end). You can do that with more advanced notions.
It's not overblown. We're averaging ~125 IPOs per year since the act was passed. That's not even equal to the worst IPO years in the 1980s during recessions. Meanwhile the US economy is at least twice as large as it was in 1985 on an inflation adjusted basis.

2016 saw 106 IPOs. That's below horrible recession years in the early 1980s. And that was with the stock market at very high levels.

The stock market has hit new all-time highs, the Nasdaq is on the moon, and very few companies want to go public. The entire vast shift to the private market occurred solely due to Sarbanes Oxley. The simultaneous extreme growth of the private capital market for ventures, the drastic reduction in IPOs vs the prior 30 years (while there has been an explosion of billion dollar start-ups), and the fact that the best companies are choosing to wait a lot longer to IPO vs the prior 30 years, makes it overwhelmingly obvious what has happened.
Agreed. I flagged this article because it is exactly the type of article I believe doesn't belong on HN. No empirical evidence, just opinions that may or may not be based in actual facts.
We first moved to the US in 1981. For me, a lot of the country already seemed like that back then.

Cars with '50s technology. Same for washing machines. Crumbling infrastructure, people (usually dark-skinned) doing jobs that had been automated since before I was born. Windows that didn't close properly.

And yes, on the other hand incredible wealth. I went to a private school with people that never had, and probably never would, have any idea of how "The Rest of Us" live. Father: doctor or lawyer. Kid goes to private school, then on to an elite college (if grades aren't quite up to par, daddy has to buy a library). Graduate, prestigious law firm, house in the same sort of suburb they grew up in. At 13, they had their life mapped out, and a comfortable life it was.

I had never seen these sorts of divides in my native country. Different social classes live much closer together, go to the same schools and to the same universities, they don't live in totally separate spheres.
If your web-app has even a modicum of complexity on the client side, the vanilla DOM based solution is going to get unwieldy real fast.

Consider a simple list of elements to which you can add or delete items. With vanilla DOM, you’ll have to write handlers that will `$.find` the particular element, and then run a `$.remove` to remove it. To insert something, you’ll have to do a manual `$.appendHTML`. And when you have to send the data over to the server, you have to iterate over the elements, collect it into an array and send it across. But if you used something that had an explicit notion of the application state, and allowed you to express your view as a simple function of your state, all you would have to write is an `array.push` and another `_.remove(array)`. The view will update automatically because we’ve already told the 'over-engineered' framework what to render for any given state.

But you could avoid framework and still not fall prey to spaghetti DOM manipulation. All you need is to keep an explicit state variable and have a single `render` function to deal with the DOM. This method will be invoked everytime you change your state, and it'll recreates the necessary DOM from scratch. It is a simple straight-forward implementation, but now you're going to lose cursor position, and with large enough DOM trees, the lag will be noticeable.

To fix this, you can add a virtual-dom implementation that'll maintain the DOM tree in memory and avoid re-rendering things that haven't changed.. and then you can have some sort of immutability checker to skip even the virtual-dom rendering part. And by now you have a home-brewed over-engineered React-like framework, but without any of its documentation or robustness or community.

We definitely need to be conservative in our choice of tools, but React today is a conservative choice to build rich front-end web applications. More than a framework, it is an approach to user interfaces, and it is a damn good one too.
It isn't satire, and I fail to see how what I said is HDD. I haven't mentioned the word scale once, that first paragraph is out of your imagination.

I worked with PostgreSQL, work currently with MySQL and Cassandra. With Cassandra you get HA out of the box, with PostgreSQL and MySQL not so much.

Your last paragraph is true, except most company can't afford that.
And the argument was that they did not go forward on that design. So they took it, investigated it and <please believe this> did not use anything they learned in the process.
I was thinking a Chrome extension to automate this process would be a great way to turn "inaccessible science gibberish" into "Eli5" for a mass of people (I'd like to read that but I'm not willing to do any work other than install a Chrome xtension)
>It does not feel good enough since it would be ~opening new tabs and~ make me go through a lot more effort than necessary

While you don't need new tabs to google a term with some addons, actual knowledge of the subject, even at a basic level, takes a lot more effort than opening tabs.

There's no magic bullet to learning.

According to the EIA [0], wind energy reached 5.6% of total electricity production.

Having worked with raw EIA data I can say that the inputs are not very reliable: a) a lot of smaller farms are not included in EIA data b) reporting is voluntary and 30%+ of wind sites stopped reporting data in 2016, for example [1], and c) reporting is based on surveys which means errors, delays, etc.

The US is really lagging behind when it comes instrumenting and monitoring its energy infrastructure.

No, there were no no-communication theorem violation.
Real estate looks as if it is way over-priced at this point. If you don't want the tax benefits of owning a rental, why not index fund your money, then you would be almost double the 4% long-term, either way.
And still the influence of 'government is the problem' is alive and well in my home country, the Netherlands. We are in no way in a state like the US, and still the largest political party wants to cut taxes and decrease government influence. Despite all the evidence contrary.

For me, someone interested in politics, this is pretty obvious. Every european reporter that covers US politics talks about this divide: rich vs poor.

I do agree with other posters here that the article doesn't back up any claims with evidence, but I guess that's in the book. The author seems credible, to say the least.
3% and tax deductible? It's probably worth it.
I can see this creating more headaches for moderators. It's already difficult enough to get people to read the rules before posting.
Are you perchance in a situation where you don't plainly see the dual economy right in front of your face when you go outside? I'm about as skeptical as they come, but not as much about things I can watch happen with my own eyes. Or was there something more specific in the article that seemed dubious?

I'd encourage people not to let HN's ridiculous faux-scientific culture enable you to persist in denial about how around 100 million people in the US live.
There isn't anywhere else I'd rather be. Before I joined a program in Hazard like the one mentioned in the article, I was in construction for 15 years, and I've been a lot of places. Appalachia is the best place though. We could also stand to have an influx of bright young people with a broader view.
Side note: I don't remember the graphics of Nintendo looking so terrible. Was it just that on a low resolution crt screen they looked good somehow?

> We’ve been digging ourselves into a hole for over forty years, but Temin says that we know how to stop digging. If we spent more on domestic rather than military activities, then the middle class would not vanish as quickly. The effects of technological change and globalization could be altered by political actions. We could restore and expand education, shifting resources from policies like mass incarceration to improving the human and social capital of all Americans. We could upgrade infrastructure, forgive mortgage and educational debt in the low-wage sector, reject the notion that private entities should replace democratic government in directing society, and focus on embracing an integrated American population. We could tax not only the income of the rich, but also their capital.

That paragraph alone shows how heavily political this article is. It's just the basic, typical left-wing program. I'm not visiting HN to see this kind of crap.
The main point in this article seems to be that Silicon Valley companies like Uber and Theranos skirt responsibility for their actions when compared to other non-SV companies who have undergone serious disciplinary action (such as United, Wells Fargo, Fox, Volkswagon).

But the author is comparing public and private companies and stating that the main difference between the two is their zip code. This feels like apples to oranges.

I'd rather see a comparison of how ethical issues are handled between SV and non-SV privately-held companies.
But with more powerful political clout by then.
Great section of the article. It reminds me how much my kids watch and learn from me. The author's father shaped so much of how he sees the world and aspires to be.

This was a good reminder that your kids notice every kindness you pay to others.
I think that everybody have to understand that USA is very big country and it's extremely diverse, much more than countries in Europe. USA seems to have spots of extreme wealthy like Silicon Valley and most of the West Coast and extreme poverty like Detroit. With very small (in comparison to European countries) support for people in needs it's very easy to fall under poverty line only because of some accident.
College doesn't work very often anymore. There are plenty of Comp Sci programs at US universities where half or more graduates can't get FTE jobs. We're so tired of seeing education being touted as a solution as underemployment continues to skyrocket because the new structural reality of the economy is that human bodies are being considered the most costly expense to be excised.
As a tech observer the bios and company names were worth the read.

Wind Farms are built by people living in RVs already, so you've got that figured out. Three months here 6 months there.

Embedded software is extremely hard to do mobile, and anyways all of the electronics tech is designed in Germany.

Getting a entry level job in wind is about being nearby and willing to work. If you have a college degree you can always be a field Engineer.

I'm an Electrical Engineer in the wind industry now, previously I was in the field, and previously I was an embedded software/hardware engineer.

Fair enough - it's a todo app. The code isn't structured in the same manner as the author's, however, so my point stands. It doesn't look like the code was lifted from the docs, as you said, but instead transformed to look like spaghetti.
Detroit has both extreme wealth and extreme poverty in very close proximity. Bloomfield Hills used to be one of the two or three wealthiest cities (townships?) in the country.

Asana (ugh, not my choice) once prompted me for feedback. The whole thing's performance is always worst-in-class god-awful, but the feedback textarea lagged nearly a full second before registering each keystroke. A textarea. A textarea.

My feedback was... a little mean. Having read some of the stuff about their NIH-induced in-house framework I suspect they've got several things hanging around in it that belong on Accidentally Quadratic, assuming they're still using that thing. If they're not still using it then I don't know what they're doing wrong. Possibly most things.

It ought to be FS (Finance & Software) instead of FTE. The TE (Technology & Electronics) isn't a growth sector. Seems most hardware is overseas, unless one assumes growth in automation, but again that's mostly software.

The SM in STEM doesn't pay, unless M is in Finance. Don't know why he would specifically call out Electronics unless he naively thinks that is software.

Being a landlord, hiring people, working directly with the general public (retail, food service) are eye opening experiences.

I watched my father be the kind of land lord anyone would hope to have just to watch some people destroy his property and treat him with hostility.

Now I know why your landlord treats you like he expects the worst from you.

I hired people for work they cared about (non profit), treated them well, the earned prestige and leadership experience they couldn't have had in their previous jobs just to watch them turn on me and spread lies and toxicity and try to destroy the organization because I praised someone else's work too.

Now I know why companies treat people like they expect the worst from them.

I worked at a Taco Bell and Starbucks. People yelled at us and treated us like scum for the offense of working for minimum wage.

Apparently people who make more than minimum wage automatically have more intrinsic human value? I'll never know. But I know I'll excuse a lot with retail and food workers because my life is roughly 30x times better than theirs.
Very nice considering the fan in office.
It's a bit more than "gut feeling", it's qualitative data, and I think it helps tremendously with understanding something.

To be fair diffing virtual dom is not the only way - you could also be diffing the model and only update the parts which need it. Knowing the model well allows you write an efficient diff. The problem of course is that dom diff is universal while model diff is specific to application.
Heh, I find it rather amusing when citizens of UK and the US are shocked, utterly shocked when a foreign actor interferes in their local politics when their respective govt. have been doing the same for centuries. Karma is a bitch, as someone likes to say.

That isn't the structure of the argument at all. If you don't understand the terms, how did you manage to conclude it was a strawman?

They took an prediction of existing theory that violates a weaker form of locality (i.e. demonstrated stronger non-locality), and realized it experimentally. They also didn't invent bilocality in any case.

For street lights, it might be interesting not to have "white" LEDs but rather a combination of single-line red, green and blue LEDs. Without the phosphor, they should be more efficient, and it would help handling the light pollution for astronomy, as one could use selective filters.

> what does "Bell inequality" really mean

Some stuff is just hard to understand. You can make analogies, like talking about two people hiding a colored ball in their hand and one of them showing it later, but these are not truly helpful in really understanding the issue. For that you need a bit of math.

One physicist explained this really nicely, saying that because we live in the macroscopic world we have a certain kind of experience of it, and our gut feelings and intuitions are just wrong when applied to the microscopic world, and using math is just a way of avoiding these misconceptions, and after a while of doing that you will get a new "math intuition" of physics.
