Anyone knows much about the new CEO, Jim Hackett? It seems like window dressing to me as I don't see Ford suddenly becoming like Tesla anytime soon, or ever.

Also looks like the outgoing CEO was the fall guy for the company's mediocre sales. Replacing him with a guy who oversees self-driving cars is not going to magically change the trend.
Guidelines established in AC 91-57. These set initial guidelines due to manned aircraft being restricted to 500 feet AGL. You aren't reliably telling 500 feet straight up, so a good 100 feet of leeway/buffer zone is helpful. On top of that, AMA has a 3 mile (for airports)/400' safety recommendation.

Java-level compile speed sounds amazing. My build system experience is with sbt, which is mostly slow on startup because it checks the versions of every library, every time. The rest of the slowness is from the Scala compiler. A fast Kotlin compile plus a fast command-line build resolution would be a killer combo.
Interop is dictated by the JVM itself - the whole point of JNI is that it translates data types into native types and properly manages access and lifecycle of objects that are otherwise owned by the JVM GC.

Kotlin doesn't change any of that - you still need to go through JNI bridge and properly mark and pin objects as they're being owned by the other language.

Twitter co-founder: I’m sorry if we made Trump’s presidency possible
>Mr. Hackett, 62, a longtime chief of the office furniture giant Steelcase and a former Ford director, joined the company’s operational ranks last year as head of its “smart mobility” operation, which includes driverless technology.

The self driving car aspect of his responsibilities seem pretty tangential to his professional skillset, and not a reason for his ascension to CEO.

NYT probably has some data saying that any headline including "self dirivng car" gets more eyeballs.
I wasn't being conspiratorial, so much as adding some detail to a market-based model.

As in the other post below, I don't believe magic bullet cures are possible for most diseases.

Following that economic logic further, it's much cheaper and easier to produce a not-very-effective but marketable palliative than it is to aim for a Nobel-winning medical moonshot.

I don't know of any suppressed super-cures, but evidence confirming the limited effectiveness of (e.g.) SSRIs is easy to find and hard to argue with.

Similarly questionable outcomes have been noted in other fields. E.g. novel anticoagulants:

The Medtronic 670g was my other option, but I took the Animas Vibe + Dexcom G4 just because it's easier to hack, lots of German Diabetes hackers use it, its CGM seems to be more accurate and you can use the G4 sensors way longer than the 670g.

670g is a closed loop system, but what it does is it stops giving you the basal insulin when it thinks you are getting a hypoglycemia soon. What it doesn't do is to give you correct amount of insulin automatically when you've been eating carbs or doing exercise to keep your glucose level in the 5.5 mmol/l target. And with the new Fiasp insulin automatic adjustments would be possible.

To be able to build the OpenAPS, you must have an older Medtronic pump which are not covered by German insurance anymore. My Animas doesn't allow to tweak the insulins remotely.
I believe there's a runtime issue with Scala. Something about the memory usage? I can't remember the details.

I have used Linux (Mint) for all my work in college for ~6 months. In my experience, using Word online on Chromium was better than using libre Office locally. Both features and UI wise. Both for reading existing stuffs and for making new docs. I have nothing agains Libre Office but suggesting it can be used as a replacement for MS Office in any capacity is disingenious.

Regarding wine, no need for that now that Office online and Google docs exists.

This is only relevant to my reply if someone you're saying that Childcare doesn't benefit the company in the same way a gym membership does, i.e., keeping the employee around longer. I don't think you're saying this, so I still don't understand the point of your reply.

I must be missing something here.

I read the entire patent and it repeatedly mentions file metadata and a "content flag" that can be toggled and read to determine if there is restricted or prohibited content included in the file or stream.

So what I think this says is a copyright owner notices that you are sharing XYZ's latest movie and files a claim with the cloud provider. That metadata flag is then toggled and sharing is no longer allowed and there is some master server somewhere that tracks how many times files you have uploaded have been flagged. For this they can get a patent?

Why couldn't someone just change the metadata? Or presumably change the checksum?

(I think I have a really great way to actually implement something like this but I have to fill out a patent application before I tell anyone.)

To be fair, jlink is entirely proprietary and intentionally unspecified.
I find it extremely funny that under the Mario image that is basically saying "don't push your product, explain the benefits" they try to push their product without explaining the benefits.
It might just be that he's Ford's top guy, so they put him in charge of Ford's biggest problem.

Though Ford's in-house autonomy efforts have been going nowhere fast. Then they started up Argo AI, another separate 'silicon valley style' company under ex-google SDC program manager Brian Salesky, and Jim Hackett was nowhere to be seen all through the press conferences and media accompanying that announcement, so I'm not sure Hackett had anything to do with it. Argo isn't exactly inspiring confidence in Ford's autonomy efforts either.

There's been a lot of big talk from both Ford and GM about the future of mobility the past few years, but while GM has played their cards perfectly and is doing exceptionally well, Ford's situation is a complete clusterfuck. I'm sure they mean well and understand the implications, but their execution has been sub-par.
Well gender is part of someone's identity, so it's important to get it right. If you misgendered a person in real life, it might make them feel insecure about their looks and features and hurt their self-esteem. (a man might for example wonder if he is acting feminine) It's also more important on the internet and communities like this one which are commonly stereotyped as a boys club where male is the default and females are unicorns. (Also since pedantry is the current topic, allow me to point out that a typo refers to an unintentional error while transcribing, not spelling mistakes or using the wrong term, which while mistaken, are done consciously)

Good amount of research there. :D
> I'm mainly curious why this kind of "say whatever you want" attitude is so pervasive on 4chan yet doesn't kill the site. On Reddit, for example, comments like that would be moderated via downvoting, which physically hides the comment unless the user clicks on it. That's still a form of moderation.

I don't hang out on chans but sometimes end up reading them for various reasons.

I think the constant noise and random insults actually are moderation: they keep away people prone to butthurt, who due to their stubbornness and obnoxity are absolutely the worst fun killers and threat to any discussion. Normally people call each other retards as a matter of course and don't give much fuck, but if you try to argue emotionally then you are flamed to the death.

To me it was quite eye opening to read a bit of Encyclopedia Dramatica once. Many times I saw it throw shit all over some people or idea just to click on the "see also: some ostensibly opposite idea" link at the bottom and see them throw shit all over that one too. That's a very simple and elegant solution to tribalism if you ask me, HN totally could take inspiration from them because the mods keep complaining about tribalism here :)

Maybe because even with Android N, one cannot use all the official Java 8 API?

And then since Android N is only 7% of the market, it means giving up on the stream libraries and the remaining features that are Android 7 only?

Finally, because lambdas are implemented with inner classes instead of new JVM bytecodes like on the real thing, Java 8 code on Android will have a performance impact?

And yes, there is also a lack of Android knowledge on HN, as many don't even know the restrictions the NDK has.

It's to keep the page weight balanced. Prose is considered to have neutral buoyancy, but code is naturally heavier and will tend to drag the page down if that isn't compensated by a lighter font. FWIW poetry can be so light, that it can require a very heavy font weight to keep it tethered to the page.

A lot of people who use a computer for work purposes have a number of software applications that they must be able to run reliably in order to do their job.

The problem is steadily getting better in some areas, but there are still thousands of specialist applications in service today that only run on Windows. If you are lucky, there may also be Mac versions.

The reality is that it's often not feasible to only run FOSS, and nothing but FOSS.
I think your use of the word "cute" is a bit disingenuous and at odds with the conclusion you draw. "Cute" implies misleading, whereas the scenario you outline isn't misleading at all.

It makes total sense to start where they are starting; they'll get teams of data in a very short space of time (from diabetics and non-diabetics alike) and be able to iterate quite quickly from there.

Influence, sure. "Repair", hubris. A cry for a static world that never was and never will be.

Reminds me of the doomsayers that claim humans will "destroy" the earth :D

Mind you, mine is not a call to "do nothing". On the contrary, I say there's no reason to be terrified and in despair (unless you really consider the heat death of the universe as the final outcome). There's lots we can do until then -- it's an awesome ride! Humans are fabulously ingenious, and life fabulously resilient.
The story behind that double push alert the NYT sent about Comey’s Trump memo
Using `cat` is wasteful in scripts but not in command line. It separates filenames, which are often actually glob patterns taking some time to confirm, from the parameters, which also often take some time to look up in the manual. `cat` and a pipe make it easier to edit in the command line.

I like this idea. It would be accurate to say I'd leave once something more relevant comes along (probably) and I think this is an upfront way to handle that concern.
Where does that quote say anything about censorship? Another option would be to mark comments with fact checks.
The early circumventers did, but the newer ones don't seem to mess with the audio as much. I suspect they either went a bit too far with the initial modifications or content-id had to be dialed back a bit.
That's not a great example as `pgrep` is a little more nuanced than running `ps [options] | grep [string]`, eg you cannot use many of the same `ps` flags `pgrep` like you can with `ps`.

At least with "in appropriate use of cat" (as some call it) you're literally just swapping the stdin file stream with a disk io file stream so there's no functional difference what-so-ever.

I'm not saying I agree with the GP either though as most of the time complaints about "in appropriate use of cat" are just showboating. Using `cat` "inappropriately" is arguably more readable for less seasoned shell script developer and it's certainly a more logical program flow for a human to parse. ie "open file, grep for contents, do something else, etc". But it's still sometimes worth a reminder that many string processing tools can accept file input directly without the need for piping it via stdin (or the files can be redirected directly from the shell via the less than, `<`, token).
I think a big caveat here is "in cities". The author is from Seattle so I think they're writing from a perspective of someone for whom downtown is the furthest place they have to commute in a day. The other example given in the article quotes New York City. (and both quotes mention "urban")

You guys might be interested in a court case known as Moore v. Regents of the University of California,

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moore_v._Regents_of_the_Univer...

> A was a landmark Supreme Court of California decision filed on July 9, 1990, which dealt with the issue of property rights to one's own cells taken in samples by doctors or researchers. In 1976, John Moore was treated for hairy cell leukemia by physician David Golde, a cancer researcher at the UCLA Medical Center. Moore's cancer cells were later developed into a cell line that was commercialized by Golde and UCLA. The California Supreme Court ruled that a hospital patient's discarded blood and tissue samples are not his personal property and that individuals do not have rights to a share in the profits earned from commercial products or research derived from their cells.

To my knowledge there is no case law for "non-discarded" cells.

No. Ext4 doesn't do data journaling by default. Even when enabled, what's written to the journal is blank data that's about to be written, not the current file's contents.

1) write to journal "I'm going to overwrite this file with this data (zeros)"
2) commit journal
3) write data to file

This is typical for journaling filesystems-- step 3 can be interrupted by a crash and replayed later (by re-reading the journal).

For filesystems with CoW data (ZFS, btrfs), the in-place data will probably not be overwritten.
