A steady stream of accounts like yours of "it says my intake should be X, but when I ate X I added weight".

In your own case you've yourself proven that the sources you've found are wrong or at least have a ridiculous error margin, given that you've measured that your maintenance intake is much lower than your sources claim it should be.

Meanwhile it's exceedingly rare to see the opposite.

One of the big issues appears to be that people take advice based on a belief they are more active than they are. E.g. as I mentioned elsewhere, pretty much anyone in an office job is sedentary by default, even if they spend most of their spare time being active.

No, he is saying that Apple has a smartphone monopoly in the quoted paragraph.
I run a data science team.

We have statisticians (yes, plural) on my team who have published in Nature, and plenty with other backgrounds.

Even ignoring the data engineering side, there is plenty that statisticians don't do or know which is useful data science.

Take the two attitudes to p-tests, or what a "reasonable number of features" means. You drop the Jeff Dean "consider training models with billions of features" quote on a statistcians desk and see their eyes open.

Statistics is great, but data science is just as much programming as it is stats.
The messenger itself seems to be an (allegedly) open-source product that is only available to "premium members". Nowhere could I see a license nor source.

This game is awesome!
It does and you're right.

But on English speaking websites the majority of users will be Americans, unless the sites have a very specific, localized audience (say, an Australian or Canadian newspaper). As a result many news will focus the American audience. One quick way to check this is to look for specific cues, for example: "the President" instead of "the U.S. president", "the nation" instead of "the American nation", etc.
The article contradicts itself; it says there's a problem, but in the long term, that iphone being 'status conferring' will ultimately prevail, meaning nullify the "problem", not become dominant necessarily:

> iPhone users very rarely switch to Android, while a fair number of Android users switch to iPhone, which means that even in a saturated market Apple’s share should grow over time.

> And to be sure, an iPhone is still status-conferring: Apple is by no means doomed, and it’s possible those China numbers will turn positive this fall.
"Apple may be a de facto monopolist for most of the world"

May this is how some peoples from USA see Apple ?

But here in EU Apple is just another smartphone vendor and most peoples are using Android.
> Mobile industrie are not the same than game for PC, they are really focused more on money than the game itself

I'd argue that this focus isn't necessarily to just make money, but to make money that mobile users simply refuse to pay up front. Most people don't think twice about paying anywhere from $10-$60 for a game on PC or consoles. Yet many will leave complain about an app or game because it costs $5.

Take the Nintendo 3DS as an example. Games vary in cost, but $20-$40 is most common for many games in the Nintendo Shop and on cartridge. There are very, very few games that are in that price range for iOS, simply because no-one will buy them. Instead, developers focus on IAPs as a way to offset that.

Pricing on mobile is caught between a rock and a hard place. IAPs have a terrible reputation because they're used (sometimes overly) frequently as a way to generate revenue from games that were released for free (or at very low cost). The alternative is to have users pay a fair, up-front price. That's not going to happen as long as people complain that apps cost $5 (which is usually how much that same person just paid for fast food or coffee that they didn't even finish).

>they are for dumb users (sorry I don't have other word for, and it's not even casual)

That is a sweeping generalization, and wrong. Why is it dumb if someone might be quite happy spending their own money playing Candy Crush on their iPhone? That's no different than someone wanting to use micro transactions in games like Overwatch, Call of Duty, or even a monthly subscription to WoW. Just because you think it's dumb, doesn't mean it is. If they enjoy playing the game, what does it matter?
Intro to Mini.css (5 min screencast)
I am 25. But I am all ears why someone would think it is not a breakthrough. I might learn something or a new perspective.

Thanks.
I'm not a lawyer, but I believe the point isn't necessarily that you'd use civil disobedience as an affirmative defense (like a self-defense claim would be). Instead, you'd make that argument to a jury that may or may not factor that into their decision (i.e. jury nullification). You're right that it's not a claim you'd make to a court expecting leniency. But you might be able to gain sympathy from a jury of your peers if they thought you were morally right.

I don't think there is anything that would stop a defense from making that argument. If that's all you had to argue, then that's the proverbial "pound the table", if you will.
Any links to those studies? Although don't think we're interested in scrum vs waterfall. We all agree that iterative development is better than waterfall.
There should also be an article entitled, "China's Apple Problem." The article could go many different directions, but I like the contrast between the titles.

One thought is that it could investigate the impact of big tech firms capitalizing on the Chinese market from the top down and bottom up. Utilizing cheap labor and manufacturing facilities to develop extremely expensive products which are then sold almost exclusively and at a higher relative price to the upper echelons of Chinese society.

It could also focus on intellectual property concerns which are acting as a catalyst for overhauling the Chinese intellectual property system, court system, and marketplace.

> If you're running 20-30 containers on a beefy VM, you're not really condensing anything. You're just moving from running hundreds of small VMs on a single server to running much less larger VMs.

Of course you are condensing. Those small VMs would have been running a full OS runtime each.

Assuming you relocate those workloads onto a single machine (1 process = 1 container), you no longer run 20-30 copies of an OS, just a single one.

And the container engine takes the place of the hypervisor.
Fighting terrorism has never been about saving lives or reducing human suffering.

Steven King wrote something that really made me focus on changing this. He essentially said that the difference between an amateur and a professional writer is that the professional write even when not in the mood. That made me think a lot about how I write code etc. and how I can use my free time even when I don't want to when I have to absolutely get something done.
I kinda like the idea of pre-filling the email input fields with "@" and have never seen that before.

This is why I regularly advise new hires, both senior and right out of college, that communicating when you're blocked or stuck is not optional. The quickest way to get me to recommend a performance improvement plan isn't if you can't hack it on a particular task, it's if you aren't clear that you don't have what you need (voodoo to get tools working, training, experience) to get the job done. Being stuck and not speaking up is a cardinal sin in knowledge work.
Show HN: See if a movie is happy or sad with sentiment analysis
OP here! I was watching the Stanford NLP classes a while back (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLiNErZ5Bus8qNxNsFZFkh...) and ended up trying the part about sentiment analysis on srt files.
The way it works right is quite primitive but you can still see some "trends" on most movies. If there are any suggestions on how I could make this smarter I would love to hear them!

You leave people to rot every day. Why aren't you paying for healthcare in Africa or paying for healthcare for people in rural West Virginia?

So are you a hypocrite or callous?

There is a far larger philosophical discussion to be had. Summarizing healthcare as "if you don't pay for it you don't care about people who die" is either a political talking point of no value, or a lack of philosophical training and understanding.

Well it probably is, but it would be too late if we don't start investing into the data collection. Convincing government to build infrastructure and services what I am suggesting is going to be a long investment. I know some states are working on toward that goal, and IBM's SmartCity project is one such example experimenting how to use technology to allow services to subscribe to data.

We have a MVP. Google has a MVP, Telsa is a MVP already. I feel we focus too much on building sensors.
There is absolutely no reason for any government to have this capacity unless it is to target potential dissidents and critics of their political agenda (as well as training "pre-crime" tech).

Intel regarding terrorist-attacks and crime comes almost exclusively from HUMINT, not SIGINT.

This type of installment (which is basically already in place) reverses, in effect, the principle of a person being innocent until proven guilty (by due process) by deeming anyone a potential criminal as default. This is highly unacceptable in a society claiming to be free.

This reminds me of East-Germany's Stasi police - on steroids.

The goal in small tasks, to me, is to encourage collaboration more than to micromanage. Sometimes you can get three free devs working on one story and turn it around in a day or two, but if it was all one "get the feature done" task, there are no opportunities there.
Using VMs to isolate single processes is like owning multiple toasters, and buying a different house to plug each toaster in.
I was not referring to the app, but in general to discover a cheater you'll most likely violate their privacy.

My point is that privacy in a relationship is a relationship thing, and the moral choice for me would be to not interfere in other peoples relationships. This includes not judging you if you use spyware on your wife.
In my country of origin (Poland) Apple devices are niche.

In Germany, where are reside they're indeed just another smartphone vendor, mostly for casual users.

> then there's the Lib Dems who had their shot at power, and immediately went back on their promises and raised student loans through the roof.

Does anybody (who can critically think) actually care about this? All political parties have made u-turns (for example, the current government changed their mind pretty damn quickly about the NI increase) and, at the end of the day, the Conservatives won a majority so it's their call.

I swear the whole "Lib Dem" == "Tuition fee liers" is just a meme created by journalists to sell papers and distract people from real issues.

Oh God, writing that out made me realise I sound like a bit of a conspiracy theorist...
No. More appropriate words would be like "difference of opinion" or "I own my labor" or "I don't agree with this action because I think it's solved better in another way".

Painting people who disagree with you, especially if they have sound philosophical backing, as evil discredits my cause to bring healthcare to all people. If you want to bring healthcare to people, you have to find a way to get them to agree with you or change their mind. Calling them evil does harm.

Ask HN: What are some resources on how to build a parser?
I want to learn what are the fundamental concepts (data structures + algorithms) on how to build a parser.

I don't want to build a compiler, but I'd like to parse some semi-structured NLP (i.e. bibliography data at the end of scientific papers).

I am not sure building it from scratch is optimal, but it does sound fun.

So far the only concrete resource that I have is Ch 6 of "The Awk Programming Language(1988)" mentioned here on HN a while back [0].

But since this is a personal project, id like to maybe join it with learning a functional language, such as Scala or Haskell. Also, maybe, a more modern resource would be nice, I am not sure.

Also, is there some known bibliography parser suited for programming with out there?

The public also have very little recourse in fighting such creep.

It's not politicians of one particular party or another who have an 'EUREKA!' moment in the bath and rush into Parliament with ideas for new surveillance powers. They are persuaded / cajoled / wearied in backroom conversations and presentations by career civil servants who can outlast any uncooperative Government ministers.

Teresa May might have a front-line political career of 15 to 20 years. A senior civil servant is just starting his rise to power by then.

I agree with this observation. And given data science's distinguishing emphasis on algorithms and process, maybe it would be more properly called "data engineering."
I don't know if most people really consider the OS to be that important anymore, as the author strongly believes. The Windows Surface Laptop is no threat to Apple because it doesn't run macOS. Samsung's smartphones are no threat to Apple because the phones don't run iOS.

Then he continues with the WeChat factor to explain the shrinking market share of Apple in China. If you consider China the trendsetter in tech, that doesn't bode well for Apple in the rest of the world. It's a clear example that an OS isn't that important anymore.

If, or better when, a platform similar to WeChat emerges in Europe or the US, Apple can't rely anymore on it's OS to sell high margin hardware like the iPhone or Mac. It's not just a China problem.
Too bad the phones from ZTE, Huawei, OnePlus, Xiaomi, etc generally suffer from horrendous build quality. From my experience, even their flagship devices feel more like a toy and less like an actual phone. The iPhone and Galaxy, and perhaps a few one offs from other companies, set build quality and craft benchmarks.

But I'm more productive if I take a 15 minute break every hour, or so some article said so.
It happens, but usually on traffic passing through the UK from europe on it's way to USA, and I don't know the intricacies of how it works but it doesn't downgrade high profile ports/IPs (like google, facebook).

in my case it was a IRC server which was built identically to another 2 nodes in other parts of the world- When I looked into why I found no good reason so I dug in to it and was presented with a GCHQ/NSA project called "Tempora".

I ran a bunch of tests using the popular `openvpn` software suite and a bunch of VPS providers who were cheap enough (tilaa, vultr, linode and AWS) and the common trend was exactly what I described.

If I pinned the ciphers then the data would not be tampered, if I allowed a weaker cipher then my "response" would say the server was only capable of TLS1.0 despite me connecting to the same server minutes earlier on a different port with TLS1.2.

I will do a write-up on this and submit to HN as I assume this is still in place and all references to what I describe seem to have been removed from google.

I'm beginning to feel like one of those tin-foil hat people since I spent considerable time looking at documents surrounding this before and it's just vanished. :(

> or claiming to be eating

This, to me, is another reason why employing a feedback cycle and only relying on those estimates as a first approximation makes most sense.

The estimates won't take into account how dilligent you are: do you estimate how many meatballs there is per 100 calories, or do you guesstimate based on measuring once? do you count the calories in your sugar free chewing gum (it's certainly not calorie free)? do you measure out the amount of ketchup you put on your food and count the calories? And so on.

With a feedback cycle hopefully you're roughly consistent, and if you adjust on a weekly basis based on how you're doing you'll hopefully also counter-act your own self-sabotage (e.g. it's oh-so-easy to subconsciously take more of anything you've decided doesn't need measuring, like the above mentioned ketchup, or find yourself suddenly chewing 10x as much chewing gum...)

(at the same time, one of the benefits of these shakes certainly is that if you adhere strictly at least for periods, you take dilligence out of the picture; though you still need a feedback cycle, as e.g. differences in how much energy you have can easily affect your activity levels and so change your rate)
But is that because mobile game developers made a conscious effort to just focus on making money from IAPs, or because the economy on mobile is so badly skewed?

A $10 game on Xbox, PlayStation, or even Steam is considered fairly low-cost. On iOS or Android? Very few people are going to buy that.

Forgive my ignorance, but how is this not a case for OCR + indexing? I assume that the form would have some specific texts that can be found once it's processed with OCR, what is there to machine learn?
Not currently in the plans because the support window for LibreSSL is significantly shorter than a FreeBSD release support cycle.
