Ponzu: An Introduction [video]
I don't know about you, but I'd be down to spend some of that MOAB money on social services.
After the initial post was made here, there have been a lot of requests for an intro video. In it, there are details about:

- the CLI
- generating content types & references
- auto HTTPS
- HTTP/2 Server Push & other Ponzu interfaces

(This is a video walk-through of the open-source Go CMS + server framework)

I wonder if one of the most important changes is pure nomenclature: the updated type definition keywords. In prior versions the "obvious" way to define a type gets you a mutable type, and going forward the obvious way gets you an immutable type. Of course this doesn't change what the language is capable of, but I hope/expect it'll encourage better practice.

I'm not sure if I understood what you meant with layering drum hits. If you mean being able with a single trigger to have layered samples go off that form a drum hit like a snare or bass, then some drum samplers come to mind like Geist. That's the one I personally chose due to wealth of flexible features, but layering a group of samples into a single "hit" is a foundational feature in the program.
The sleep tracking is definitely fairly accurate. You get a fairly close measure of how much sleep you got that night.

As for what you do with that data is up to you. It's like a weight scale, seeing the number may or may not help you keep a healthy weight.

It's called finding people with similar interest. Knowing other technologists are interested in solving social issues isn't something we easy can get on othet sites which are overpopulated. HN is in a good size and the folks are mostly friendly and can the capacity to discuss professionally and openly.

I am disappoited that many of the tech leaders don't speak out hard enough. If I were as powerful as they, I wouldn't stand back. The fact our Congress is a disgrace when it comes to passing the new health care bill, we shouldn't hold back. There is no reason to. Because while that bill may not hurt thousands of Google/facebook employees, it will have impacts on their users and many of their own employees' families.
Yup. From a different branch of government.
Interestingly IPCs are also used to verify new chipsets in embedded companies. Run the same code with newer generation chipset and see if IPC is better than the previous. IPCs are one of the main criteria if the new chipset is a hit or miss (others are power..)
Oh please please please make a smart alarm that will make me up by only vibrating on my wrist. I want to be able to wake up early for stuff without having to wake up my wife and dogs.

I want an alarm app on my Apple Watch that:

1) Wakes me up when I'm in light sleep rather than REM

2) Only vibrates on my wrist at first (let's say for 5 minutes) and then falls back to a traditional alarm sound so I get my ass up just in case

I've gotten to the point of almost buying some Udemy courses on Apple Watch development to build the damn thing myself. Only thing really holding me back is figuring out the algorithm for sleep tracking, but I'm sure that wouldn't be really hard to do.

Maybe I'll just do it still.
If you charge it for 30mins in the morning, while you get ready, you'd easily be able to wear it overnight.

That's a great explanation.

Let me add this though:

Artificial neural networks were proposed to compute the probability of a sequence of words occurring; however, RNNs were the next step in Natural Language Processing since they allow variable-length sequences to be received as an input contrary to the previously proposed architecture.

However a simple RNN architecture didn't allow for long
-term dependencies to be captured (that is, use statistical modeling to predict a word sequence on a part of a text that is based on an idea previously developed on the corpus). So two kinds of fancy RNN architectures were developed to tackle this problem: GRUs and LSTMs. Production systems are already implementing these architectures and they are yielding pretty accurate results.

But now Facebook researchers are proposing using CNNs for this task because this architecture can take more advantage of GPU parallelism.

I don't think that these impulsive people do a single wrong thing that lands their in jail.

Rather, they are a constant nuisance to everybody around them, and eventually it gets them in trouble. What they get locked up for is probably not their first transgression.

They might not be criminals but they actively decrease quality of life for everybody involved. The kind of behavior people tend to leave with high school, and they should have left ever sooner.

I wonder if therapy will help them avoiding behaving like a bad apple, not just avoid getting caught with their eventual out-of-bounds act.

Your parent was off by an order of magnitude: $2B / $19,000B == 0.01%

Agree with both points, 0.1% is not nothing - that's what NASA scrapes by on. FWIW, the article mentions a ramp up in spending going up to the census year - so I take it that this is not an annual cost.
Oftentimes, poorly-managed VMs / VPSes get infected with scripts / botnet software and start blasting out spam. It takes a long time for IP reputation to recover, esp. under the same owner info on the netblock.

Regarding inbox deliverability from dynamic IPs (like you'd have with a residential connection), it might work sometimes for short messages with no attachments to people you've corresponded with before, but I wouldn't expect general deliverability to be very good. You have the same problem with botnet infections / malware-based spam here as well; home PCs are much more likely to get infected with that kind of stuff (though WordPress exploits are VERY common on servers), so many people running mail servers will just straight up block dynamic IPs from big ISPs and assume that nothing of value was lost. Personally, for low-volume mail such as what a home server might send regarding maintenance or alerts, I'd recommend using a service like mailgun and hooking up to that with SMTP. It's a lot easier than running your own mail server, you won't have to deal with inbound spam if you're only sending, it works well with minimal setup, they guide you through each step, etc etc.
Why You Can’t Concentrate at Work
Tracking that you've performed the operations correctly is extremely complex, necessitating an extremely complex application.
I've had very little of that personally. Every project I've worked on has had no compatibility issues on different platforms.
Also, if you're suggesting that we don't need to literally go door-to-door counting people, you're not alone. Many people argue that statistics will give us a better measure than one that has the flaws of in-person data collection.

The problem is that the U.S. Constitution says the following:

> which shall be determined by adding to the whole Number of free Persons, including those bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths of all other Persons. The actual Enumeration shall be made within three Years after the first Meeting of the Congress of the United States, and within every subsequent Term of ten Years, in such Manner as they shall by Law direct.

The key word is Enumeration. That arguably means counting, one-by-one, rather than making a statistical estimation.
I wear my Apple watch at night and just charge it in the mornings when I'm in the shower. I have a fairly active lifestyle too so it gets a lot of work tracking activities.

For sleep tracking I use Autosleep though it's not fantastic it's usable. I've been hoping for a built in one for a long time.
> urban areas always need more human outreach

Um, what?

It's the rural areas that are a nightmare.

I lived in a rural area during the last census, and they had to go all out if they wanted to count every cabin and cottage. I'd much prefer to be assigned to 100 people in a city. They'd probably all be the same apartment complex.
Because as you point out yourself, there really is no need for that abbreviation. You could say "do_stuff" and it would have approximately the same meaning, but not be an undecipherable, ambiguous abbreviation.

> What person would ever want this "feature"?

I've been waiting for years for a feature like this. Seriously. My wife let our son play with her phone, so when I call her on my way home, she never picks it up.

It got to a point that sometimes I have to log in into her account and activate "Lost my iPhone", so it rings at full volume. More recently I bought an Yi camera that has an intercom functionality by default, but it's clunky, app is not very friendly, I need to scream for people to hear me, etc.

Having a decent intercom functionality (and bonus points for having with video too) would be a dream come true in our household.

Just wondering on the interoperability with other regular Android and iOS devices...
You might be interested in Garmin Vivosmart HR+ (I have one). While Garmin's app is a horrible walled garden (no google fit integration, or integration with other Android APIs, like alarms), it does let you set an alarm that syncs to the watch. The watch vibrates with increasing intensity in order to wake you up. Works as advertised.
There are plenty of horrible, incompatible protocols that are widely adopted by industry (FTP, CalDAV, IMAP, DLNA...). Where there's a will there's a way.
I'm shocked that doesn't exist, even my old Pebble had an app for that

hahahahah, unforeseen only if one didn't look.
I bought a steeply discounted Pebble Time a few days ago.

It's basically a dead-end product now that Pebble has been acquired/cannibalized by Fitbit, but mine does exactly what you want: it wakes me by vibrating on my wrist, and uses a smart alarm to calculate my sleep cycle and avoid deep sleep alarms if possible. Coupled with the week-long battery life, this has made my mornings a lot nicer.

I wonder if Apple is withholding a smart alarm app as a sort of carrot for future models.

I agree that ostensibly it is possible. But what I would love is to see either: Apple show how to do it in a supported manner; or someone at least prove that it's possible. So far I haven't seen either.

To your comment about bitcode being stable, I don't think that bitcode stability and forward compatibility was something guarateed until 4.0.
I guess it is only for ones with nontrivial destructors.

That makes the "trivialness" of a destructor part of the interface, which is a price. But then from my experience in C++, we pay that price anyway, because to have any sort of assurance about what you are doing, you need some clue about what the destructor does.
From 404 and default pages to RCE via .cshtml webshell
This. It's easy to forget that in the beginning, stuff like AOL and CompuServe offered their version of the internet, not "the internet". We've now paved the way for Comcast, Time Warner, ATT, and Verizon to do the same. Look at what the wireless ISPs already do to phones on their network today with locking, proprietary apps (many of which take advantage of zero rating), "free" phones, etc.

Sadly but somewhat hilariously, the thing which might prevent them a bit from offering exclusive-to-their-network content is the fact that in the US, you often don't have a choice of which ISP to go with, so if I really wanted some content which was exclusive to ATT's network, I simply can't switch off of Comcast (apartment building with no other option, past 3 apartment buildings were the same) since they've so successfully monopolized markets.

Edit: on the beginning: http://www.internethistorypodcast.com/2014/04/chapter-3-part...
What specifically annoys me about C++ and is demonstrated by this example is that the simplest possible expression of an algorithm is almost certainly not the most efficient or desirable way to do what you are trying to accomplish.

In a language designed for humans, the simplest expression of a loop (e.g. `for (auto paths : m) {}`) would use references not value copying. You'd have to go out of your way to do the it the dumb way, which you would only do when you have a specific reason to do so.

C++, on the other hand, is only really an effective language in the hands of people who have either fully internalized the 1,000 page specification, or wasted a depressing number of synaptic connections on memorizing minute trivia about what constructs to use under what circumstances.

I say this as someone who works with C++ on a daily basis :(
PyCharm is better for pure Python development, but I still use Sublime because of inertia. It does most of what I need it to without changing much regardless of which language I'm currently programming in so I'm pretty happy with it. Plus I spent $80 or whatever the cost was to pay for it myself so I have more incentive to use it.
Because that doesn't fix the problem of high housing prices, it just pushes it elsewhere.
I read it as OP stating that money spent on prisons would have less of an impact on crime than money spent on housing.

That said, crime isn't a silver-bullet-solution kind of problem. It's a systemic problem with a lot of causes, so any sort of broad stroke claim about what will and will not reduce crime is unlikely to be accurate.

We have been using JSON on RDS extensively since 9.5. Today probably 80%+ of PG JSON capabilities are used by the app in some way for some pretty complex use-cases (fintech). Never had any issues with this on RDS - everything just works (multi-as, read replicas, performance profiling etc) and we love it. Haven't tested Aurora yet.

I don't think you understand what OP was saying. They aren't suggesting we try to bribe criminals to stop them from committing crimes. He is suggesting we stop people from getting into a situation where crime is seen as the only way out.

It's cheaper to pay for housing, food and medicine than housing, food, medicine and guards. And the former has the possibility of those people finding employment meaning we don't have to pay for them at all and actually benefit from their labor.

It doesn't take a PhD in economics to realize that attaching a profit motive to incarceration just might increase "crime" since a for-profit prison naturally wants to increase profits.

Yes, you're right. The `push` command was added because of backwards compatibility issues with `save` (and essentially replaces it).
I don't understand this mentality where everybody thinks they are entitled to prevent others (from the same country, no less!) from moving in to their community.

It's not "supply and demand" until the supply caps come off. It's just policy set by the entrenched.
Sublime Text comes with a great system for Package Control. [...]
To install a plugin using Package Control, open the command palette with shift-super-P (ctrl-shift-P on Windows/Linux). The super key is command or ⌘ on OS X. When the palette opens, typing install will bring up the Package Control: Install Package command.

Sublime doesn't actually come with Package Control and Package Control itself is a confusing usability nightmare. It's a fine and snappy cross-platform editor but the whole extensibility thing has unfortunately turned out ugly and unpleasant.
To be clear, Thunderbird is currently implemented in XUL and JS. Moving to HTML and JS is not going to significantly change its performance characteristics, mostly. There are some details that will need to be done right, like needing to create a good HTML replacement for <xul:tree>, of course.
A big part in this comes from the fact that most people take off the watch when they sleep to charge it, making it useless for sleep tracking.
When was the last time you used atom? I switched from sublime a few months ago and have been quite happy. The only thing I really miss is an easy Node.js build system. I probably just haven't figured out the atom equivalent.
well, if only categorisation of extremism online were better. Recently I was searching youtube with the word "Lokiarchaeota", an exciting very recent find in the origin of the eukaryotes, hoping for a scientific lecture, and was mostly getting creationist preachers as results.

Who the hell searches for priests by naming obscure microbes ?? And sadly this is hardly unique; i've been bombarded by UFOs, reptillian aliens and similar outlandish nonsense in search of factual science regularly. And its clearly not doing a reasonable job at predicting my interests at all, for those are not items I'd view.

Why google's imbecilic algorithms promote and push such extremist trash on the general populace is beyond me, degenerating many neutral search results page to worse than reading the yellow press, but this does sadly seem to be what's currently happening, and would reasonably lead many away from wonders that Internet could offer instead.
