>I'm sure you can find someone to deny the genocide of Native Americans

It has never been officially recognized by the US government. It's not "simply a false statement," it's a fact. Yes, we both learned about the Trail of Tears, but we don't recognize Native American genocide as what it is. Your presenting the Trail of Tears as a strawman for Native American genocide.

There are a lot of people saying this.[1] I'm sorry you felt the need to write such a condescending remark about internet message board arguments, that in combination with a straw man argument is really low.

Yes, all I'm saying is the orbital experiment would have to be well designed. It's not necessarily trivial.
Professionals don't always get things right, either, and reactionless thrust doesn't really fit into our best current physical model. That doesn't mean it can't exist - but, given the general usefulness of our current model in predicting how things will behave, there's reasonable cause for extraordinary skepticism in response to claims that one of its "can't happen" conditions is inaccurate.

Maybe the paper's conclusion is accurate! Maybe this physical "can't happen" actually can, and the model needs extending to account for that. It wouldn't be the first time. But it also wouldn't be the first time that a "can't happen" really can't happen, and the result suggesting otherwise is an artifact of the way an experiment was run, rather than an accurate description of a previously unsuspected physical phenomenon. Going by past examples, the latter is much more likely than the former. So there's nothing unreasonable, even for people like myself who aren't knowledgeable enough to evaluate the paper on its own merits, in reserving credulity until the result is shown by other experimenters to be reproducible.

This is the best part of the internet. Amateurs and 2nd year college students challenge professionals to make their months/years of hard work comprehensible. They take all this work and question it unless presented with hard, verifiable facts and data, sometimes over a coffee.

The internet is full of amateurs and they are very very eager to point out when they are not fully grasping something, in one way or another.

The point I was trying to make is the same. Some languages are more descriptive about a given domain in a shorter space and thus can convey an idea in vastly less time than another language. Now you could do some hand waiving and say we use prefixes and suffixes all the time and you could make up words till the end of time but the important fact here is that people speaking a given language actually USE those words, because of their need to be descriptive within a given domain, and WITHIN that domain I'd say they are smarter by my definition of smart. More articulate, more succinct, more versed (within a given domain), and more experienced. Every profession has it's own language, and rightly so, because time is precious and we need to convey meaning quickly. Words created and collected for a given purpose are still words, just look at a medical dictionary.

I know this will be unpopular with libertarian streak on HN, but if this is the case, I think every driver should be fined, or every speed limit should be raised if safe to do so. People should NOT be picking and choosing which limits they think apply to them. If you want to drive like a maniac, buy your own private road. Keep away from me and my family. (I don't mean you in particular, dear poster!)
It doesn't really work that way. Stephen Pinker talks about this in some of his books.

In the real world, some communities have used very restricted languages ("pidgins") for work and trade. But when you raise the next generation in such a language they quite spontaneously complexify and enrich the original pidgin into something called a creole. And creoles are full-featured languages.

I don't know what is the problem with speed limits in the US.

Here in Switzerland (and throughout Europe), most limits are mostly sane. We have 120 km/h (75 mph) global highway limit, which you mostly don't want to ignore (especially in the mountains, which is like almost anywhere). And on the smaller roads, if it suddenly says e.g. 80 km/h, you better reduce your speed, otherwise you'll risk not fitting into the turn.

Hi Jon. Any plans to extract interactions as code from modern prototyping tools (e.g. Principle) to Xcode?

AirBnB recently released Lottie that requires After Effects but when compared to Principle, AE feels like Photoshop compared to Sketch. I have a feeling that not many UX designers on Mac want to go back to Adobe tools. Certainly, I don't want to touch Adobe tools again.

Things like hitting private, undocumented APIs

That's entirely Microsoft's fault too: they made internal APIs accessible to applications, and did not provide comprehensive documentation on the full features of their public API.

The latter means that application developers were forced to just guess what a function could do. And since no API performs proper input validation, undocumented usage became the norm.
Ask HN: Is Phys.org Using Elsevier to Publish PhD summaries?
I'm not sure. I have a RSS app, but i'm noticing that phys.org has an abnormal amount of articles output.

It seems that they are summarizing work of students and then quickly publish it.

Sometimes they also publish news from other sources.

I'm not sure, but how legit is Phys.org? I'm thinking that it must have some partnership with Elsevier ( or similar institution) as a lot of work are papers/journals from Universities.

A high amount of articles contain the word: "University" and "PHD".

Eg. Article on the front: https://phys.org/news/2017-04-nanodiamond-enhanced-mri-greater-range-diagnostic.html

There's a lot of truth to this, but if you've never worked this kind of job, you won't be prepared. Working this kind of job is what made me really understand the value of being able to say "FUCK YOU" and quit/not worry about getting fired. It drove me to build savings and now I insist on having no debt and at least $10k in the bank. It also drove me to move to a cheaper city, find a cheap apartment there, etc. $10k isn't a huge amount to some of you, but it's enough to pay the bills through a decent job search if your fixed expenses are low. Once I paid off debts and had that buffer, my soul-sucking horrible job seemed way better since I no longer feared being fired. It even allowed me to quit that job abruptly and enjoy life for a few weeks before going back to work.

We're pretty smart in some ways, but too many of us live essentially paycheck-to-paycheck. In an industry where jobs aren't hard to come by, and the pay's pretty good, it's easy to fall into that trap. If you're doing this, stop! Do whatever it takes to break the cycle. Sell your car. Sell your unnecessary stuff if that helps to start saving. Stop acting as if your future paychecks are guaranteed. You have no idea what a weight off your shoulders it is to not fear losing your job.

I have a 450W PSU and my fan runs with maybe 300rpm and is absolutely unhearable inside the case (even when it's night). So i won't count this as an argument.

~ 230W = 30 % Load (760W)
~ 135W = 30 % Load (450W)

The idle draw of such a system is below 100W (okok.. max 100W ;) ) so you won't hear any fan even with a smaller PSU.

That's an interesting point. But this overzealous diagnosis is made (from what I see) essentially in the United States, which is where the disease was theorized.

Yes, over-diagnosing a particular disease that has no equivalent (in the same proportions) accross the Atlantic is clearly a cultural marker.

Add to that the existence of a medication industry that needs this disease to exist and you'll see why the cultural belief gets self-reinforced.

Medical knowledge has a normative effect on reality (we build knowledge over the experienced reality but the knowledge has then an effect over reality in the way it is read and shared): that's why in the right conditions, new diseases can be created through a scientific process.

A hundred years ago we treated female hysteria as a normal deasease, in ways that are now considered catastrophic and extremely machist. At the time, all doctors were men. Now we know this diagnosis is bullshit.

Medicine happens in society: in a particular social context in time and space. And we should bring the same distant look over our occidental medecine as over any other remote ("traditional", as we say) culture, like the ones in the article.

Fevered work dreams do not a life make, and cameras quickly turn into filters to avoid experiencing things directly. And the bottom line is that we all need to learn to sit on the floor and play like a 2 year old, without filters and without external expectations.
There's some historical baggage here.

Consider a man being helped along the street by his friends. He's stumbling, often falling over, unable to keep going in a straight line. A police officer walks up and asks them what's wrong.

Scenario 1: his friends say "He's drunk off his ass."

Scenario 2: his friends say "He has imbibed intoxicating beverages to excess."

To many native English speakers, if you presented those two as skits, they'd find the second one much funnier. And the reason would be the use of "high-class" vocabulary in a decidedly low-class situation (a drunk stumbling along the street).

Now consider the English word hydrogen. And then consider the German word Wasserstoff. Native English speakers sometimes find the German word funny -- it sounds just like "water stuff"! But they don't reflect on the fact that "hydrogen" means essentially the same thing when you look at the Greek roots.

This happens because words with Germanic roots are often "low-class" in modern English, while words with obvious Greek and Latin roots are high-class. And that... is because modern English developed after the (Romance-language-speaking) Normans took over England from the (Germanic-language-speaking) Anglo-Saxons. The vocabulary of the Normans, since they were the ruling class, is prestigious in modern English, while the vocabulary of their Anglo-Saxon subjects isn't.

How much do YouTubers make?
The point I'm trying to make is that you loose the advantage of a garbage collected language once performance becomes important, so there's no point in using such a language for high-performance code in the first place.

Integrating third party dependencies into C++ is its real achilles heel, I agree. I only accept dependencies that come with source and either don't allocate dynamic memory at all, or allow full control over allocation by providing custom hooks. I also learned over time that typical C code is usually much easier to integrate than typical C++ code (which very often is an over-engineered template mess).

The way to deal effectively with memory management bugs is to allocate as little as possible. There are good analyzer and runtime tools (for instance the new runtime memory debuggers in Xcode and Visual Studio, the static analyzers, the clang address sanitizer in Xcode etc), these provide a much better view on what's going on under the hood than most managed-language-tools. And those tools make it quite trivial to catch most memory-related bugs. If you're doing hundreds-of-thousands of allocations it becomes much harder though, because than the problems will be lost in all the noise.

It is a valid argument though to use higher-level languages in high-level gameplay code, but this should only do scripting-style stuff, glueing subsystems and game objects together. Up in this area I don't want to care about ownership and lifetimes. It's important to find the balance though where the high-level code should better be moved into a low-level, central system.

I bet you can find enough enjoyment in 0 overtime, long lunch breaks with co-workers, and those articles gathering dust on your reading list to entertain yourself for those 2 months. Not that you shouldn't do work, far from that, but for most people once they quit, emotional attachment to work ceases to exist.

Yeah, I bet. The standards are getting better, but there are so many vendor specific things that you need to support to have a good experience that just reading the standards in isolation won't help you much.

I agree this incident has educational value, because it's like a toy research project. The science behind the EM drive and the means to understand why it could never work are accessible to laymen who only have to trust our most well-tested physical laws.

If you're curious, you can find an easy to understand theory about why breaking the conservation of momentum lets you build a perpetual-motion machine, creating infinite energy.

Then, you can find a paper from the inventor of the EM drive explaining why it won't allow that to happen. His explanation spectacularly violates special relatively in a way we could easily detect.
Depends. In some regards I like Gnome 3 UI as it comes with Fedora more, than Finder.

This is only to counter worst-case attack scenarios which do not happen in a realistic scenario. Like >100 collisions.

Robin Hood or its better cousin Hopscotch hashing, which was forgotten here, counter that scenario much better, with only ~1-3% performance loss on average in the best case, and much better perf. numbers in the average write-heavy case, where their "move to front" strategy pays off. And they have the worst case scenario also covered, unlike all others.
