Most obviously, calling the script as an executable requires you to have execute permissions on it, whereas calling python requires read permissions on the script.

More generally, the whole subthread is about the behavior of the command 'python'. Responding to the complaint "I want 'python' to have behavior X" with "it doesn't, so do something different" isn't really appropriate to a discussion of how 'python' should behave.
Accepting responsibility for trashing the planet implies that you must make lifestyle changes as a result. If you take responsibility, you can't justify driving a large SUV, or buying a large house, or buying lots of stuff, or paying low taxes, or eating a hamburger guilt free, etc. etc.

That case is easily manageable: you cannot insert/appendNode that has non-null parent. So you need to remove that node from its former parent first.

Problem is that their solution by design contains loops.

So on each tree traversal iteration you will need to access parent:

Node* get_next_node(Node* that) {
that = that->next;
return that == that->parent->first_child ? nullptr : that;
}

I wonder how you could say such a patently (and copyright-ly) false thing, especially considering you replied to a comment explicitly mentioning Linux.

Would you not think all these huge companies would think twice before using Linux if it meant being dependent on the good will of everyone who ever contributed to any of thousands of packages that come with a typical distribution?
There's a high correlation between geography and social graph, while the part of the social graph that gets "cut" will give an incentive to make interoperability work, as people will care about it.

So your premise is true(ish), but the conclusion can't be drawn from it (and your comparison falls apart) because we don't need strict dependency on geography, only a (relatively strong) correlation.

OpenGL is a standard, not an implementation! Imagine if were all stuck with SGI's implementation of GL instead of having it be a standard that the industry could create unique hardware implementations of. Would SGI have willingly collaborated with 3dfx on the Voodoo? Not likely--instead, 3dfx implemented a subset of the de facto GL standard, called it Glide, and created the entire PC GPU market in one fell swoop.

OpenGL is actually a great argument for the importance of multiple implementations--thanks for suggesting it :)

> everyone now has an incentive to refactor it into something nice.

My proposal to "refactor" Blink would be to completely redesign the layout system from the ground up to be parallel and to write as much as possible in Rust and JS in order to improve security. After working in this space for years, I've become increasingly convinced that this is what is needed in order for the Web to steal the performance crown from native, while simultaneously driving security forward.

Do you honestly think Google would be likely to collaborate on that?
Preemptibles are at a fixed discount to the normal rate. Spot instances fluctuate according to demand.

Ah, right, no. "i.e." is an abbreviation for the Latin "id est", meaning "that is".

"For example" would be "e.g.", ("exempli gratia" in Latin.)

"E.g." is illustrative, whereas "i.e." is exhaustive.

I hadn't heard "i.e." expanded to "in example" before - that explains one source of misunderstanding (despite being grammatically incorrect in its own right).

Edit: It seems you've since been unfairly downvoted for explaining what you meant. Please folks, don't do that. I asked the question, and @fraserharris answered honestly.

I had the same thoughts when buying a house last year. We really like Alameda island - great neighborhood, houses, and shops. But we eliminated it from consideration because it's just a few feet above a king tide, and that buffer is shrinking. AFAIK, there's no abatement plan for the island yet, and while it may not be underwater in the next 30 years, the property values there will decline on the worry that it's only getting worse, and king tides will start flooding more and more of the island and its infrastructure.

And then there's the insurance issue- as insurance rates go up, the home value has to decline as well. Didn't seem like a good long-term investment, or even short term, as more and more people start considering these issues like I did.

The prices will drop way before they're under water.

We ended up buying a house in the hills - 900ft. up. I wonder if in 10 years folks in Alameda will start migrating our way.

i used to work at a hotel and one year there was a japanese person staying at the hotel

one day i was walking to a park to play some guitar and enjoy the sun and i saw this person walking in front of me

i ran to catch up and asked the standard traveler questions: how long have you been here? how are you enjoying the states?

thae explained that thae really enjoyed the us because, 'in japan it is all take take take, and in the us it is all put, put, put'

i laughed, 'really? did you get that backwards? how do you mean?'

thae explained, 'in japan there is a really strong core of tradition from which everyone draws from in order to live their lives, and in the us there is a strong core of tradition that everyone adds to and changes'

i laughed, 'wow! that's great, do you want to hang out?!' ;P

it ended up being a great friendship and we even lived together for a few months

i still think about that pearl of wisdom from time to time
I don't see it. My point doesn't change between talking about "a standard", and talking about "a FOSS project with open committee-based maintainership" (like e.g. ASF projects are.) It's stone soup: you'd start off with a worthless project—but if that pile of crap has to "feed the whole town", people are going to turn it into something worthwhile.

Eventually, in such an effort, there would probably be zero lines of code from the original project left. That's okay! It was there to bootstrap the project and inspire contributions, not to be good code.

> My proposal to "refactor" Blink would be to completely redesign the layout system from the ground up to be parallel and to write as much as possible in Rust in order to improve security. Do you think Google would be likely to collaborate on that?

Keep in mind that, if there really was just one impl that everyone used, there'd be more than one megacorp influencing it; Google would have no more say than anyone else, and would probably be "at arms' length" from the maintainership in the same way e.g. Apple is with Webkit. If Google didn't like an idea, but some other corp (e.g. Mozilla) did, sponsorship would still happen, code would still get written, and things would still change.

I am working in the FPGA industry. I definitely agree with you.

But possibly I am a little too close to the current industry and way we do things. There's new applications around the corner that need innovative ideas. The innocent fresh perspective could be the seed for something. I am sure if any real decent improvements were started by a SW person, the big companies like Intel would be eating it up.

It funny how people on HN were raving about Altera & Intel recently because word on the FPGA street was that Intel weren't happy with the acquisition. Xilinx has had 14nm FPGAs for a long time while Altera's are nowhere to be seen still. Everyone's expectations of a Xeon with Altera FPGA on the same die are years away I am betting.

> the Amazon as a whole only absorbs two or three times the carbon emissions as the UK.

The Amazon probably doesn't absorb any net amount of carbon, unless it's growing.

Let's demystify this: The carbon trapped in the Amazon is the plants. When plants consume CO₂, the C part becomes the plant. In a forest in equilibrium, growing plants do capture carbon from the air, but rotting dead plants release an equal amount.

So when you chop down a forest, and for the sake of example burn all the plants, you're releasing a large one-time amount of CO₂, but then the whole damage is done. And if you then leave the area alone, the forest will regenerate over the next 50-100 years, reabsorb the same amount of CO₂.

If you chop down the forest and build lasting structures from the wood, you're actually removing net CO₂!
If by self driving you mean driving in a single lane on a highway, then sure, a lot of cars have "automated cruise control" with "lane keeping assists" and "collision avoidance".

But if you mean truly driverless cars on public roads, with noone in the driver seat, then sorry, driving isn't just riding in a lane and reading a handful of road signs. It includes responding to anything in your environment. For example, if you see a ball bounce in front of your car, you will instinctively slow down since there might be a kid running after the ball. A driverless car making that inference? No chance.
Archive all? Fixed!
My guess is that some people are not comfortable with inequality amongst nations. If that person went to Cuba because it was cheaper it would either mean that:
A) the quality of care in Cuba is somehow worst.
or
B) The quality of care is the same but the U.S. is somehow inefficient.
But since it's because of a new drug developed by Cuba's own pharmaceutical industry it shows the prospect of other nations becoming/being equally capable/fortunate, which many support.
It is not always easy to do a good quality control when they downsize their best people and hire people willing to work for less money but a lower quality.

Back in the 1990s I worked as a tech and programmer. I issued bug reports to Microsoft and they would fix them in the next service pack or version.

Cheap rockets will lead to cheaper satellites.

Take a look at the development of cubesats [1]. It's a new "paradigm" for LEO sats: rather than develop a massive and/or complex sat with a lifetime spanning decades, costing years & millions of dollars, you can now make a simpler (no station keeping ability other than using drag, lifetime so low that radiation hardening isn't worth it)/cheaper/lighter sat that you'll replace in a couple of years.

See also these two SpaceX applications to the FCC from 2016 & 2017 [2][3] for respectively ~4000 and ~7000 satellites. For context, there is currently about ~1000 operational satellites, with about half of these in LEO.

Finally consider the Ardusat project [4] from a couple of years ago (the premise was to send an arduino in space and let kickstarter backers run their code on it). The project was successful and allowed the founders to later raise money for a company [5] (Nanosatisfi, renamed Spire) operating a fleet of cubesats.

Basically any entity with ~100k to spend will be able to send up their own space junk. Now would be a good time to figure out how to treat the kessler syndrome.

How does Postscript not capture the "widely supported low level format?"

No, I assert that the problem is there is just not a need for serializing vector graphics across the wire for the vast majority of people. Or of authoring graphics in said fashion. Combined with the people best at creating graphics typically best at doing so using a visual toolchain. Which lends itself to the standard toolchain of Photoshop (or whatever application) and just generally does not need to be programmed or to have "clean" output.

Indeed, most graphics are best created at the target resolution that they are needed and using tools that are more akin to the metaphor of painting. See the popularity of the Surface with artists. Now, try to make a program that you interact with using paint brushes, but outputs "clean" vector commands.

If you succeed at that, you will be deserving of whatever computing awards you can get.

It's a good idea to carry a couple cards.

About a decade ago, I took a sudden flight to a small airport in Colorado due to an emergency at work. When I arrived, I had nothing but a Visa, and a few dollars Canadian.

I was frustrated to find that I couldn't get food or call my work, because Visa wasn't accepted anywhere. The highlight was trying to make a call on a payphone and talking to the operator. When I asked if I could use my credit card to make a call, she listed off MasterCard and a half-dozen credit cards I'd never heard of. "How about Visa?" "No, sorry."

I will forever remember the janitor for lending me his cell phone and getting me out of that mess. After that, I made sure I carried multiple cards.

If you have nothing to go off of but a rough sense of which part of their day is causing them frustration, you can ask "I heard that (process X) is hard or frustrating. Can you walk me through how that works? Where does it start?" followed by very simple questions to keep them talking - they'll get as detailed as they can for someone who appears to be in a position to help.
