Sometimes feels like Communism vs Capitalism. I love the idea of an Android phone, but the "Samsung bloat" and the rest terrify me. Conceptually I hate Apple's closed ecosystem but it's secure, they seem to take privacy very seriously, and it Just Works Really Well, almost all the time.
I bought one on Amazon for $30 (brand is AUKEY) and used it with my iPhone on a recent hiking trip. You have to be careful of aligning it perfectly, but it's a huge help when photographing landscapes with a phone. You can capture a noticeable amount more of the scene.
You mean, I think, that it will force them to start distributing them in movie theaters (well, French theaters, but possibly more if other awards follow suit.) Which is possible.

Alternatively, as those platforms become more important movie distribution venues, it will reduce the relevance of Cannes and other festivals/awards that exclude films distributed by streaming alone (or "not in theaters", which isn't exactly the same thing.)
So they clearly have a view of the store for just Daydream-capable apps. I'd really love a simple link to that in the main app store when not using VR.
Assessors are obligated to be qualified because they are obligated to their clients who pay them money in exchange for their services.

How much did the seller in question pay zillow and what was promised in return?

The fact that person a's action foo can negatively effect you doesn't imply that the law or ethics precludes a from doing foo. A must be either violating your rights, the law, or have a duty to you that would preclude foo.

Its not clear how you could have a right to silence others speech in order to earn more money, its not clear what duty zillow has to sellers, and its not clear that the law actually precludes zillow from underestimating the value of your property.

In fact it looks an awful lot like none of those apply, and further that allowing anyone who feels like their property is undervalued to use threat of a lawsuit to silence discussion would preclude anyone from providing public analysis of property values whether accurate or not and thus harm the public at large. Real harm unlike the unproven harm previously discussed.

Tensor Cores: 120 TFLOP/s mixed-precision (peak). Typo in your table: V100 FP64 is 7.5 TFLOP/s.
Although, they should change the color of hyper-link atleast.
However, France also has a law that streaming services can't show a movie until 36 months after theatrical release.
Maybe we're old school, but we use autofs and nfs to mount homedirs and ssh keys on demand. Puppet handles host ssh keys across machine rebuilds. It works well, no need to replace it IMHO.
That seems rather unlikely. Why do you think that would possibly affect video playback on a website?
What's your opinion on the use of perfluorocarbons in case of ischemia?
As someone with some potential admin work coming up, can anyone recommend some good cli tools for office work? I'd love to be able to take a word/libreoffice template and generate a document by supplying command line parameters for example.

> In fact, we can already see the impact of smartphone-only students on their ability to grasp and automate complex workflows. The fact that mobile apps are largely non-composable and non-programmable seems to seriously limit students' abilities in general digital problem solving.

Computers became so easy to use that no one learns how to use them. It's no wonder grandma always opens that attachment with an exe extension, file extensions have been hidden for as long as she's used computers, she doesn't know what the convey.

Teaching kids to code is the latest fad but I think the majority of them would be much better served learning some basic bash scripting and related unix tools.
Ok, but it is like every single project ever.

The PO comes up with an idea, we break it up and enter it into jira, etc...

I guess it is interesting for people who don't work in IT projects.
At my previous company, we used Puppet to distribute both. SSH public keys were part of a developer's intranet profile, and SSL certificates were managed on a central repo.

Updates to either would be passed on to Puppet and distributed automatically across 1400 machines.

(Edit for typo)
The government who changed away from FTTP is the more conservative (and pro small government) of the two major parties. As such, although I disagree, I can see why they may argue that it is not the governments responsibility to deliver broadband infrastructure and that private industry should pick up any slack.

However they didn't argue this.

They stuck with the concept of a nationally funded broadband network, but one which was sub-par on almost every metric except cost. This just doesn't make any sense to me, especially because they tried to sell it to the public by suggesting that things like "Why invest so much in fibre when it may be surpassed by another technology in the near future". There was also a lot of clever wording around how their version would be "delivered cheaper, faster, etc than the alternative" - I have no doubt these words were chosen because it sounds like the data rates themselves would be faster, whereas they actually meant it the build could be completed faster.
SSL certs are managed by AWS certificate manager and all VMs are deployed via elastic beanstalk or exist as Lambda functions. No SSH access is enabled across any of our infrastructure.
They are fast, ubiquitous, 0-dependencies, short, espressive... most of the time. The fact is that we don't have anything better to glue commands together (afaik).
> But meanwhile, average density numbers completely ignore that the western 2/3 of SF looks like suburbs

Yeah, lots of discussion treats SF as if it was the "downtown" urban core of the Bay Area, but in fact only a part of SF is that way, and a lot of SF, if still urban, not the kind of core that it is often compared to.
Shells and automating work were already a thing before UNIX was created.
We've been using Foxpass for more than a year now and can definitely recommend. We have Amazon Machine Images with the required packages installed and configured; we use the web interface to grant/revoke access to users and add SSH keys. So each user logs in as themselves.

Aren has been awesome with responding to emails and helping us set it up too.
I agree with you. Some people are just better than others. I don't deny that. I didn't know that the guy definitely does not enjoy breaking things.
They do not seems to warrant further investigation, the examples you find about these implementations are overly simplified bordering useless. If you are going that way you might as well go with something like PowerShell, and that's a horrible scriping language.
Ask HN: Should I use a one-word domain variant?
Or fear legal repercussions?

If I want to use 'myexcellence.com' or 'excellenceapp.com' for example, and there exists 'excellence.com' from The Excellence Corporation, would that be a bad idea?

YANAL (or not), but what do you think? Especially those who may have encountered this situation before.

It's a very generic word. There's always the question of market sector, but this isn't a clear case of auto repair vs. maid service, for example.

Instead it falls more into the realm of companies that offer business and marketing services to other companies, and deal with customers. Like most B2B services.
I wonder how hard it is to produce a "digital cinema" cut of a movie. Probably not too expensive in the grand scheme of things

It is mostly a non-issue
Visual Basic for Applications. The Red programming language.
It was probably the preview version, so yeah, pretty much the beta.
Also other virtualization hosts on the desktop don't have this problem at all. You can run all of the others at the same time.
On Apple and Windows we have Apple Script, COM, WPF Automation and quite a few other third party tools when the applications don't expose any kind of API.

I'm okay with that. I find your practices disgusting but I'm not in a position to be telling your customers what they should be choosing. So all I can do is vote against it with my money and reward shops that don't do evil. There's very few things that I need badly enough to put up with that crap.
Well, Intel introduced HAXM a long time ago. It made it run quit faster.

imacros [1] for firefox has been great for automating long tasks and can also be used on sites, that generate html elements with dynamic ID (for example typo3 backend). Together with csv files, it's excellent. I spent two days to find it, so you don't have to :))

It's been a while since I learned the scientific method per se, but I remember something about "repeatable, controlled experiments". There are many, many questions in life just can't be studied in a repeatable, controlled experiment. Macroeconomic policy comes to mind. (You might reason, "okay, I'm going to make two Earths, and in the US on planet 1 I'm going to implement policy A, then in the US on planet 2 I'm going to implement policy B, then I'm going to travel back in time to the present day so we have identical initial conditions and implement the better policy.") Anything single-shot. Anything involving a counter-factual ("if Hitler had never been born, would there have been a second world war?"). Anything where confounding variables cannot be eliminated or controlled. I could continue but I think the point is probably clear. :)
Ask HN: Is there any opensource AI bot that'll evaluate english writing quality
Any suggestions would really help me out.
Only if you don't have batteries at home. Tesla promotes buying the roof with a battery pack which would allow you to use evening energy by battery and charge overnight (good for the grid) for the morning peak.
Yep. I make this point constantly on HN, and routinely get down-voted to -1. People just don't want to see data that contradicts their preferred narrative.

I'm actually not opposed to higher density or building up. I'm just pointing out that it isn't a panacea, and certainly won't work if you focus on the wrong places.
Meanwhile I still remember being seated at the Games Development Conference talk in 2009 where Intel tried to convince us how Larrabee would change the world of computing.

Still waiting for them to produce anything worthwhile buying instead of AMD and NVidia GPUs.
To answer eximius. In your valley battle example there would be multiple game engines handling the valley.

Whereas it is entirely true that you can always find a counter-example that would break a given technology, troymc is absolutely right in the fact that those counter-examples still leave an overwhelming majority of use-cases that we can handle perfectly well with our approach.
This is a gross mischaracterization​ of the issue. You aren't looking at the bigger picture.

Do we really want to commodotize​ the simple act of walking down the boulevard? Make every moment in public space (and private digital space!) sliced, diced, and scrutinized by God knows how many data munchers, middlemen, analytics brokers, and ethically challenged people in order compel as much thoughtless consumer spending as possible, long term consequences be damned? Allow incredibly detailed profiles to be built up on every person, spanning the decades of their life? And of course, there is always the danger of governments co-opting and abusing this information years or decades in the future, after adminstrations have come and gone, and laws have been overturned, drastically altered, or ignored. As the tech and richness of the data increases, the temptations will as well. Well meaning people can do nefarious things in certain contexts.

I believe our societal institutions and corporate entities are not mature enough to safely handle the power granted by unrestrained, high resolution data on the entire populace

Granted, I don't think things would get too terrible without overwhelming protest, but I don't see why we should bet on that.
In addition to the points above, Timing is an another consideration. What didn't work in 1999 works today because there are users online sophisticated enough to expect a solution.

Sometimes solutions have to stick around and survive through a few waves of the solution becoming relevant - either the market catching up to demand the solution, or the solution developing to meet the market.

It's a fine reason for building solutions in a lean way that can have a longer runway to let things align

Still seems low for retail. In Europe, the UK has very low costs with ~12-13€c/kwh, high cost countries such as Germany are more around 25-30c/kwh (taxes and renewable energy charge).
How the Russians might have snuck a recording device into the Oval Office
HIPAA does not make your medical information private, it makes it Portable. Whether it has improved the protection of your digitized medical records is debatable, but it definitely forced almost every industry remotely related to medical care (and some previously unrelated industries) to digitize their records and share them.

Sure, paper medical records suck and aren't inherently more or less secure, but no one breaks into a car and runs away with 500 patients' medical histories when each patient's record fills pages, folders, or filing cabinets, rather than bytes on a hard drive (or even better, it slips away through a network connection that no one in the hospital even knew existed thanks to a back door on a piece of medical equipment).

HIPAA largely means that your medical information has been outsourced to whatever software/network/hardware provider claimed they could do the job (and whoever they outsourced the job to in some cases). If you don't sign whatever HIPAA agreement(s) your provider puts in front of you, chances are they can't treat you, so what choice do you really have?
Why is such a draconian rule enshrined in law?
We use node at work now. The fact is it's not worth it trying to get everyone to write good bash scripts. Js doesn't have nearly as many foot guns and there's a library for just about anything you could want to do.
I did music at GCSE and A-level so I knew about a lot of the basic theory here, but it's fallen out of use in the past year or two. The best part of this by far was the deconstruction of tracks that I like into their components and realising that they're not insurmountably complicated. Kinda like a musical version of "you could have invented monads".
SSH keys - OpenPGP smartcards (E.G yubikeys)

Sometimes I wonder how so much complexity and co-dependency has evolved on earth in such little time. Most estimates I've read say that we're likely within an order of magnitude of 100 trillion generations deep from the universal common ancestor at this point. That sounds like a lot, but not really. If you took 30 four sided die, you'd have to roll them a million trillion times to have a good shot at getting any specific permutation.

How many 'die rolls' does it take to get a selective feature to emerge in an organism? If you do a google image search for 'camouflage bugs', you'll find some brain-bending examples. There's clearly a selective advantage for some of those 'configurations', but how many generations would it take for each genetic mutation required to make a lichen katydid or an orchid mantis to converge?

> but then upload speeds slowly rip at your soul

I know the feeling. I'm relatively lucky in that I live somewhere that has had VDSL for some time and my download speed is adequate, if not ideal. But my upload speed is atrocious, in fact actually slower now than it was in past years (before my ISP got bought out by a bigger ISP) and my ISP will not guarantee any particular upload speed for my connection. I make use of a cloud-based backup service to mitigate the possibility of local disk failure and it's just painful.

You hardly hear anyone talking about upload speeds in Australia. It's as if cloud-based services aren't really a thing and we're back in the early 2000s.

> That Australia didn't end up with a future proof fibre to the home system given the amount of money spent is an absolute disgrace. I get angry every time I have to discuss it.

I know this feeling as well. :) It is a massive lost opportunity that the country will be paying for in more ways than one for decades to come.
> This implies that we should expect limited Lamarckian evolution anywhere it leads to greater fitness than Darwinian.

Not necessarily... evolution is good at finding local maxima, but not necessarily global ones if there's a deep valley in between. Transgenerational epigenetic inheritance is hard to evolve (compared to more Darwinian/DNA sequence-based evolution, it requires extra mechanistic steps and typically the effect size is small), so most of the time it isn't employed. If you look at enough cases where Lamarckian evolution might be advantageous, you'll find a few where it's employed to a limited degree, but in any given situation, it probably won't be.
I usually spend one day every week. For the last few months, I have been doing a lot of side projects related to the use of machine learning in sports analytics and cyber security. I usually have an idea and spend the next few days trying to write code for the idea. I have had a lot of success with my side projects on Fsecurify.com and Crickytics.com. I initially got a lot of good response from people and that gave me motivation to keep doing these side projects.

Regulatory capture.

Is that the right phrase?
Not entirely true, there is a clever method that works without (pulse transit time measurement). You measure the electrical signal of the heartbeat, and the acoustic signal, and take advantage of the fact that the acoustic signal propagates slower in blood than the electrical signal propagates through nerves. This difference is directly related to blood pressure! I don't know if you can get away with one measurement on the wrist + some clever calibration, or if you need two points (e.g. one close to the heart). If you take two measurements, you can apparently also calculate the aortal pressure, which is different from the pressure in your arm, and hard to obtain non-invasively. (I'm not an expert so I'm sorry if I got something slightly wrong :-) .)

There was a startup that worked on using this, but they failed (due to financial but also regulatory reasons), and then remotely bricked all their sold devices...

I really wish someone would develop this further. Even if it is not as accurate as a normal measurement, the implications would be huge. There are so many people running around with hypertension who have no idea. I also don't see a risk in false positives in this case, since in principle everybody is recommended to have their blood pressure checked - false positives who go to the doctor are then just like people who read an article and go to the doctor, and are weeded out there. False negatives might be a problem - but if you don't advertise it as a blood pressure measurement tool, but just implement it as an additional warning in a smart watch, you'd reduce the false sense of security people would get if it didn't work properly.

Ignoring the parent's law about streaming services, it could be though that the chains all compete with each other for the same movies, but Netflix is the only source of made by Netflix movies.

Still seems like many laws and rules about nothing to me.

Thing is, they don't have to rely 100% on autonomy. They can start introducing autonomous cars, in competition with human drivers, and adjust that number dynamically on an hourly basis. With the higher profits of those rides, they could even pay the human drivers more during those "supply shocks", as a kind of self-funded surge pricing, to fill up those gaps.
You're assuming an equivalent amount of entropy between the 1000 real fingerprints and constructed fake ones which are attempting to be as close as possible to the real one. That seems unreasonable to me.

You're still also only considering false negatives (user is erroneously rejected). You have no data points about false positives (user is erroneously allowed).

If the sensor always detects and admits Bob, even when it's Alice, you'd have the exact same success data for Bob.
You forgot that the first month is free :)
Pipes are nothing more than function composition, already available in LISP systems since the late 50's.

Using a UNIX shell is like a poor man's REPL without access to the OS internals.

OS prior to UNIX already explored similar ideas by producing temporary files into cards, paper tape, tape and magnetic cores.

Using a multi pass Algol compiler was an exercise in patience with the card data being fed into the multiple stages, effectively doing pipes via paper.

Also UNIX pipes were influenced by the way pipes were designed in Multics.

Streams, meaning dealing everything as bytes were just innovative in that UNIX provided no alternative, many of the previous OSes used to provide pure binary access (streams) and structured file access (records).

The thing is not that Lyft takes longer or is more expensive. The thing is that Lyft is not an Uber competitor for the vast majority of the world. They are US only. In a few markets they have partnerships with local services, but that's it currently.
