Since you appear to me to be referring to my comment (as I'm the only top-level comment to mention Rust) let me quote some of my comment, with emphasis added to phrases I used to indicate that I was presenting was my opinion, not presenting my opinion as fact, and indeed not suggesting a rewrite in Rust (which you appear to have incorrectly inferred.)

This is, in my opinion, a rather generous interpretation
of events ... What I see when reading this is a system
(the Linux kernel and surrounding infrastructure like the C
language) that is very poorly designed. ... I'm not trying to suggest the kernel should be rewritten in Rust.

If one cannot mention their opinion on this site what indeed is the point of the site? Furthermore, your response is typical of what I've seen to shutdown discussion of kernel development: to suggest the author is an idiot and cannot possibly understand the complexities involved, and if they did they would follow the established development procedures. Do you believe the current state of kernel development is perfect? If not, if one cannot discuss problems how will one ever improve? In this particular case it seems to be a well studied class of bug (use-after-free). Why do you suggest that the many years of work on tools and other methods to address this problem should be ignored?
> Interesting tidbit at the end of the article about LSD microdosing reportedly fixing twelve female subjects' irregular/painful menstrual cycles.

Thanks for commenting this - I would've skipped the article otherwise. Conventional medicine doesn't have any good options for women with such problems. Two of my passengers going take home from the emergency room were monthly sufferers of dysmenorrhea. One was "economically stressed", the other was on drugs (edit: prescriptions) that never allowed her cycles to normalize themselves.

Edit2: another was made suicidal with Depo-Provera...

I've started drafting 'the predicaments of doctors and patients', where I have something to say about the medical industry. Maybe I'd be able to finish it if I got some microdose LSD, lol.

Fadiman reads an email from a British art historian in
her 20s, long afflicted with painful, irregular
menstruation. “‘I only microdosed that one month. My
periods are regular. You have changed my life. Thank
you.’ I’ve been in psychedelic research a long, long
time, and no one’s ever considered or mentioned or
thought about the possibility that psychedelics had
anything do with menstrual periods, particularly
difficult ones. However, now that that bit of search
has happened, we started looking for it.” Twelve women,
he says, have reported improved menstruation after
microdosing.
What I see when I look at LinkedIn is a company that has too many teams and not enough communication. "We're in charge of the side bar... but we don't talk to the people who are in charge of the profile... or the people in charge of the feed..." They need better unification on the product team.

They don't use anywhere near the full screen on desktop / laptop, it's some sort of crappy non-responsive tiny little center column for content.

SO much sponsored content with the new UI. Between through "stuff you may like" and jobs and "people you may know" and just ads... and then you finally see what your friends posted. Of the top 10 posts in my feed, 7 of them were ads. Even when you hit "hide stories like this" on the sponsored crap, they come back again. If I'm not looking for a job, why do I have to see the jobs?

> the benefit of the doubt

Police lost that benefit a loooooong time ago. Respect is earned; covering up bad behavior and criminal activities is a reputation that deserves scrutiny and suspicion. They can regain the benefit of the doubt only after their reputation is free of blatant murdering innocents, officers that engage in criminal acts are reliably prosecuted, and the culture that encourages escalating confrontations to violence is fixed.

> put their lives on the line

Police work isn't particularly dangerous compared to many other jobs. It's not even in the top 10.

http://www.cnbc.com/2017/01/04/the-10-most-dangerous-jobs-fo...

Regardless, modern police culture encourages pushing all of the danger onto other people when they treat everyone as if they were violent.

> keep people safe

That's not always the case. Police incite a lot of unnecessary violence. Also, the SCOTUS has ruled that Police do not have a duty to actually prevent anything. They usually show up afterwords and write reports/etc. Generalizations are problematic; obviously some people do try to keep people safe, but reality is more complicated.
Hi HN! I've spent the last few months building Ketchup on nights and weekends, and I'm finally happy enough with it to share (okay it's never really enough). It's a CMS written in Go and Typescript, mostly written for fun to try to combine the best of those two languages, but also with the following feature set in mind:

- Easy to install and run
- APIs for almost everything
- Built-in admin UI, write in Markdown or with a rich text editor
- Automatic HTTPS via Let's Encrypt

I'd love to get some feedback on this project and suggestions or ideas (or pull requests!) on what might be useful features to add. Thanks!
> Think about it--it's Google. They should have enough data on me by now to know my skills and potential with high confidence, to the point where their interview shouldn't even need humans in the loop.

That's a good point. They should be able to determine all they need to with some machine learning based on my google searches for stackexchange and other related sites (with syntax checking filtered out).

Actually, that might be a good project. If you kept track of your google searches and presented that to your potential employer, let them see if the types of things you were working on were worthy or not.

As per typical Trump administration chaos, it seems everyone is off message or fighting their own political war to keep their fiefdoms running. Seems Trump is simply fulfilling him promises to gut the government and to expose climate change as a "Chinese Hoax." Why 62m Americans voted for such an asinine premise is beyond me, but here we are with yet another attack on the EPA. Previous ones include putting a climate denier in charge, loosening rules on pesticides, and allowing coal dust to be dumped into our rivers. So its not out of character for the Trump administration to do this.
"By 2050, more than 66 percent of the world's population will be living in so-called "smart cities." These are metropolitan areas where everything will be digitally connected. ...
we'll have smart hospitals, farms, and highways, and it's likely they'll all talk to one another. Connected devices will monitor everything from air quality to energy usage and traffic congestion."

While that might lead to efficiency that makes me feel it's more of a dystopia than a place I'd want to live.

I had never considered the i18n of it until now. That's a great point.
Thank you for mentioning this. One minor adjustment I'd make to the above statement is "shoot the firearm with the intent to stop". This is a small, but important distinction. It doesn't change anything with respect to how the firearm is used (e.g., point of aim). At least from the perspective of police use of deadly force, the goal isn't to kill, it's to stop the person from continuing to be a threat. The outcome may be that the person does die, but if the person is stopped and doesn't die, that's an acceptable outcome once the decision has been made to use deadly force.

Ugh. I wish reporters would stop embellishing stories like that with words they don't understand. An AR-15 is not in any sense a "machine gun".
That makes sense. The objection I feel here is the inconsistency - why accept the input in the first place, only to delete it with this button? An above comment suggests rules may be updated over time, which could explain their thinking.
I think the fact that this us unheard of makes it even more excusable. I don't think that the police had faced this kind of sitiation too often.

The core of React is the VirtualDOM and how it simplifies interaction with the hypermedia. React has gone way past that original simplification toward curing cancer or solving the faster-than-light-speed problem (take your pick). This shazz should have been a separate effort.

Most of the original criticisms centers around NPM, which belies the hell that is JavaScript. Since everyone compiles JS anyway, we should stop writing in it altogether. Pick some other language ecosystem that transpiles to JS. Delenda Est NPM.

The headline makes that claim, but the article's figures do not support the claim.
There's already a whole bunch of "define Redux action creators and reducers as classes" libraries out there. I've added the ones I've seen to my Redux addons catalog, in the "Variations" category: https://github.com/markerikson/redux-ecosystem-links/blob/ma... (which is where I list stuff that builds on Redux, but takes it in a "non-idiomatic" direction).

There's definitely several different schools of thought about how to organize and structure Redux-based code. Dan is a big fan of the "small independent slice reducers responding separately to the same action" approach. Others prefer to see all possible state changes for a given action in one place. And yes, while the intended use of Redux is based on functional programming, there's also those who prefer putting OOP layers on top.

I'm actually working on a blog post that will try to clarify and discuss what actual technical limitations Redux requires of you, vs how you are _encouraged_ to use Redux, vs how it's _possible_ to use Redux. Been busy with other stuff, but hoping to make progress on that post this week. If you're interested, keep an eye on my blog at http://blog.isquaredsoftware.com .

You may also be interested in an issue I recently opened to discuss possible future improvements and "ease-of-use" layers that could be built on top of the Redux core: https://github.com/reactjs/redux/issues/2295 .

Finally, I'm always happy to chat about Redux (and React) over in the Reactiflux chat channels on Discord. The invite link is at https://www.reactiflux.com . Feel free to drop by and ping me.

> There are many neutron stars in clusters, but black holes that form in these dense stellar environments are expected either to sink down to the center of the cluster or else to be gravitationally ejected from the cluster after they are formed.

Why would this be the case? Unless you're extremely close to it, a black hole is just a mass, like any other stellar object.
Quid est veritas? Not sure how I feel about large corporate entities taking the lead on what is and what is not true or acceptable speech. The internet and mass media has oversaturated us with information. Rather than make us smarter, it seems to have filled our minds with garbage. I don't know what the answer is (I suspect the first step is unplugging the machine and opening a book), but for some reason - and I can't quite put my finger on it - it seems unwise to hand the responsibility of educating the masses on absolute truth to organizations with shareholders. Especially Silicon Valley organizations that tend to be comprised of employees with activist mindsets and a monolithic left-wing ideology. Who fact-checks the fact-checkers?

Amphetamine wins at productivity without contest. It has a linear effect and you can take more. Much better as a therapeutic device.

My experience with LSD microdosing is that I still don't feel like programming, just like I don't with a higher dose. I feel like doing other things. People say "you're taking too much", yet when I try to take less, then I don't feel anything at all.

Very unpredictable. If I get the dose perfect (which might depend more on the state of me rather than the dose), then I'd liken it to a tiny dose of amphetamine -- it comes with the same sort of mental clarity.

If I take a little too much, like within 10ug or something, I'm even more useless at my daily tasks. For 12 hours. This vastly limits the therapy of any of its effects since you can never advance beyond however you feel in microdose space (whatever that is), and you can't take more when you need more power.

Is the dark web so prevalent that everyone in SF has their own sheet? My experience with proponents of microdosing in person is that they tried it a few times but never actually owned their own supply to experiment with.

My ultimate opinion is to reserve my acid for when I want to take a 1/4+ tab on the beach to enhance an experience, and to reserve amphetamine for productivity.

Bonus: amphetamine tolerance seems to change acid a bit for the worse, but I'm not sure how much of that is superstition which is too easy to accumulate around acid, which is why it's hard to evaluate microdosing.
React Native and React are developed by people who know each others' codebases pretty damn well. I trust them to know what's better for the end users; wouldn't you?

I admire Dan's patience and restrain. Personally, I see a paragraph like that original post scriptum, I dismiss the entire thing as a troll. The guy doesn't even talk about what problems he encountered with react native, he just says "Look! Lots of open issues, and big bad alpha software! What do you THINK happened, hmm?"

What I think happened is that he encountered maybe a couple of bugs and got pissed off at the whole thing, then tried justifying it with whatever strawman was readily available. Happens to me too. I get just as annoyed. I don't write articles shitting on the devs about it though, I generally file PRs to fix the bugs.
You're making this argument with full information. Police acting at the scene didn't have this luxury.

He was arrested for disorderly conduct. The only conduct he was conducting according to his account was filming the police, so it seems clear that filming the police was the disorderly conduct for which he was arrested.

Filming the police isn't (or shouldn't be) illegal in the US, but catch-all laws which are enforced at police discretion make it de facto illegal where police decide it is.

I think of you're accusing him of making up a different scenario here, you'd need to have some evidence which wasn't presented.

It's a professional social network. For example, I just had an acquaintance message me via linkedin, send me their resume which then let me refer them, getting them a job and myself a nice bonus.

Could it have been done via Facebook or email? Maybe, but we're not social friends, so no Facebook connections between us, and we don't know each other's email addresses so they couldn't have discovered me easily.

The semantics of linkedin are what matters. It's not a social network that's highly interactive in the way that email or facebook is, it's more an on-line resume post + people you've worked with that help establish the milieu you live in.

Does linkedin "get" it? I dunno. I suspect that they do, but their growth targets can't accept this, so they keep doing things weirdly.

It's not a rationalization that police lives are more important, but rather about the stupidity of holding up a phone in such a way towards the police engaged in a dangerous situation that it appears as though you are acting aggressively towards them. The officers only have a limited time to assess the threat of any given person before more lives are lost due to an unknown danger. It's a high stress situation and wrong decisions are easily made. The officers weren't right in their immediate assessment of the danger, but that doesn't mean their actions were unwarranted.
Inkjet-Printed Flexible Memory Devices (ReRam)
Most cameras only have a range of brightness they can pickup. The rings of Saturn and the Earth are very bright compared to the background stars.

The camera is set to let only a little light in, perhaps by having a shorter exposure or something similar. Not enough light comes in to make out the stars but the brighter objects come through clearly.

If they more light, even to see the stars then the brighter objects would appears whitewashed with brightness and may even otherwise interfere with the photo.
