Delegate - Hire some competent people to take over sales, product and engineering management.

Depression - Examine heirarchy of needs: Sufficient exercise, sleep, nutrition, social interaction and maybe medication if CBT doesnt work. Feeling not depressed is like a release from constant internal judgement, cloud of doom, negativity spectacles. For some people, it's only temporary, situational and existential to change one's agenda; for others, there is a genetic component which causes permanent, unrelenting major depression which is unlikely to be addressed without finding a suitable medication.

Transistion to a social venture - Setup a school or hospital in Botswana or Somaliland, or join the Peace Corps. There is plent of work that needs doing. Teach, mentor and/or build something that builds people ready for tomorrow.

I am eternally grateful for Firefox being a viable alternative which properly supports low level HTML5 <video> tag features with less crazy behavior than Chrome.

Videos are not seekable in Chrome unless the server implements HTTP 206.

This has been a bug since 2010. I simply cannot seek in arbitrary h264 videos without glitching and failure in any version of Chrome.

Damnit i put my life savings on clojure stocks!!
If you are talking about [1], then others should know that the movie is a documentary thinly masquerading as a hard SF movie addressing an audience in the remote future. It's a pretty depressing movie; it is obvious they are constrained by politically-motivated budgets and making a relatively cursory effort to bury the waste, considering the goals involved.

I'd rather see these geological waste repositories as endless projects combined with reprocessing to reduce waste volume at heavily-defended military bases; continue digging ever downwards, the waste stored at the deepest stable non-construction zone levels to date, with the materials for basalt-rebar reinforced concrete plugs along the entire path back to the surface ready to drop in at a moment's notice, over say 24 hours. If certain existential triggers are reached endangering the existence of the host nation-state, evacuate the tunnels and pull the plugs to fill in the tunnels. As the tunneling surpasses 2.5 km (a little past our current deepest tunnel), our confidence level in future generations drilling that deep and knowing about radioactivity dramatically increases.

I think it's pseudo code.
I seriously hope that AI can soon take over the majority of work (usually mundane) involved in create CRUD applications. Leaving the programmer with simply customizing certain parts or writing very specific business or validation logic.

It might drive down the wages of _some_ programmers but it will at the same time free us to work on more interesting problems.
> Using sex with your partner as some sort of stress release activity is really not healthy for the relationship.

That sounds really strange to me. Is that from a religious viewpoint of sex? eg "sex is a sin" type of thing?
There's a difference in actually being unreliable (which I'm sure Feynman wasn't) vs projecting the negative of "I will help everyone every time".

It boils down to finding enough courage to focus on your priorities in life and not feeling guilty about it. Respect yourself (your time) and people will respect you.
From your perspective, what specific traits or responses did you cultivate to give off the impression you mention? Which were most important for changing other people's perception of you?
As someone who creates open, medium-sized, reusable datasets, is Dat something I should try? Is it too early? The linked page is very much about technical details of the implementation and not about how one would typically use it.

I maintain ConceptNet [1], a multilingual knowledge graph. I do everything I can to make its published results reproducible. The biggest hurdle for people reproducing it has always been getting the data -- building it requires about 100 GB of raw data or 15 GB of computed data that can be imported into PostgreSQL.

I once tried git-annex. It turned out not to be a good choice -- its tools were flaky, its usage patterns confusing, it leaves a permanent record of your mistakes in configuring data sources, and it was very hard to convince to use ordinary HTTP downloads instead of trying to get read-write access to S3 (which wouldn't work for anyone but me). Now I have weird branches and remotes in my repositories, and weird data in my S3 buckets, that I can't get rid of in case someone tries to use git-annex in a way I told them would work.

After that I just went with distributing the data with plain HTTP downloads from S3. I wish I could do better than this. The only semblance of versioning is putting the date in the URL, and also people in Asia tell me that the build fails because their downloads from us-east-1 get interrupted. Oh, and if I ever stop paying for S3, everything will break.

If I tried making data reproducible with Dat, would it be safe to promise people that they could use Dat to get the data? Even if in the future I don't like Dat anymore?

For instance, do I have to commit to hosting the data somewhere? If not, who does? Does it disappear when people lose interest, like BitTorrent?

Immutable.js when mori.js is available? :)

Having tried both I really prefer mori, mori imports some core clojure functions with it. I found working with iterators which was recommended with immutable.js very awkward.

It is, for sure, but I take it as self-evident that capitalism would not have used general forms of advertising for as long as it did if they didn't work.

This doesn't mean that traditional forms of advertising are the most ideal. But, when it comes to commerce, we often need to curb the ideal in favor of the consumer and their individual concerns.

Zuckerberg to Harvard students: Eureka moment is a lie, go find a purpose
The paper itself repeatedly says that all 48 layers of the policy network are 19x19 matrices. To make the point though, they initially train alphago using actual games. After a hundred thousand or so training games, it's finally ready to start playing and learning. There are less than a couple dozen recorded games on larger boards.

If you haven't played go very much, you may thing that "it's just a bigger board". 19x19 is commonly used because it has an even balance of edge and center influence (in reality, edge influence seems to be slightly higher). With the 13x13, corner plays have overwhelming influence in the center. At 9x9, there is basically no center strategy at all. Normal strategies starting in the corners and expanding influence toward the center don't work as effectively with larger boards (the larger the board, the more this becomes true).

This is a much different issue than image recognition in that strategy doesn't scale in the same way that images do.

I'd encourage you to be transparent with your wife.

Tell her your situation. Ask what she thinks. Discuss options. Execute upon your mutual decision. Do it when you two have time to dig into the details.

Don't rush it but if you're unhappy that's no way to live. I'm leaving my company this summer, my business partner has known for some time. My wife knew first.

Look, I really don't know your situation but you might want to ask yourself why you felt it necessary to hide it from your wife. Can you not be honest with her? Are you trying to protect her? And if so, does it really protect her from anything or just give her a warped perception of the circumstances? Her opinion of this makes way more of a difference than anyone on HN.

Love your wife and be open and honest with her. She's far more important than any business.
I also use Epic -- Epic is a great Chrome alternative...it takes a little getting used to, but it's fast & private.
Regardless of what the outcome was, I think we all owe kudos to Blake Ross, a guy that at age 16 became an intern at Netscape, and shortly later became the driving force behind Firebird, the browser that later was renamed to become Firefox, the browser that inspired a new generation of web browsers that would later kill IE's market share and set the Internet free.

Also the unsung heroes behind KHTML, the HTML layout engine from the Konqueror web browser (part of KDE), the ancestor of Webkit and Blink, the technologies that power modern web browsers such as as Chrome, Safari and Opera.

Agreed with you up until "any less bad than if it were Microsoft."

IE was (is) closed source
> The problem is we're moving extremely fast to a chrome only world. If it wasn't for corporate sites and the success of the iPhone chrome would probably be dominating the way IE used to. I definitely run into sites that only work on chrome and not in any other browser.

This hasn't happened to me in a while, except for occasionally government or bank sites which require "IE or Chrome". In many cases, spoofing the user agent works just fine for those. I agree it's bad, though.

The one exception I've noticed is Yubikey (U2F) support for Google services. Firefox has an add-on that provides Yubikey support, but last I checked, Google blocked access to those (I believe even if you spoof the user-agent).
>> And it turned out that if you took a Dunk Low, overstuffed the tongue, and added some Nike cushioning tech

This is so funny. I remember loving those shoes, but every manufacturer thought super cushy tongues were the way to go in that era. Every time we got a new pair, my buddies and I would take a few hours and razorblade them open, pull out all nearly all the stuffing and then sew them back up.

Apparently they finally caught on and stopped making those horrendously huge tongues.
This is pretty interesting. The paper basically starts by talking about "Concept maps", or graphs of concepts and relations. These concept maps correspond to an SQL schema, and instances of concepts and relations correspond to table rows.

Then they go one level meta and discuss how to create "alignment mappings" between the concepts generated by different people. This makes me think about how math standards for different countries/school systems could be aligned. For example, using an "alignment mapping" between math topics taught in US and math topics taught in UK, you could repurpose a high-quality educational content source (e.g. Khan Academy) to be used in UK schools.

But wait, there is more! The space of mappings between concept maps can also be represented as a graph also a category, and somehow there is interesting structure that can be used to categorize and link the alignment mappings (15+ pages that I didn't understand). I wish they had continued the SQL analogy. What would a functor be? Is it a migration? Or an ETL script? And what is a flow?

The first word in the title is Technica (as in Ars Technica), the name of the publication translates as "Tech to the Youth" ("___ to ___" is a Soviet trope, e.g. "land to the peasants").

This is a great article, and they got the name of the journal correctly in the first sentence. Someone else probably did the title, and mistyped the name.

Ask HN: Jira, Trello, Sprintly, Asana or Something Else?
I've worked professionally as a software developer for close to ten years - and I still haven't heard a developer say that they're excited or outright like the project management/scrum/kanban tool they're using.

People seem to outright hate JIRA. They seem to like Trello a bit more but often say that it's lacking something - I used Sprintly years ago, but that also didn't seem to be perfect.

What is the perfect tool out there that you really like (if there is one?) - what are the shortcomings and things you would like to see the perfect tool have.. or doesn't such a thing exist because it simply comes down to each company's individual use case..

Curious to hear your thoughts! :)
I see telemetry as fundamentally different from the kind of data that you want to use to push advertising to people.
> valuation can only go up or burst

I think you're right. The VCs are now hostage to their own greed.
I switched to Firefox because Chrome was keeping my fan always busy (high CPU usage and temperature) and using too much RAM. It was always around 5GB for my common usage. In Firefox it's always around 2.7GB. There were some privacy concerns too.

Having said that, Firefox also has its issues. It is so unresponsive sometimes, giving long hangs. That's the main problem to me. There are others, like it being slower in some pages and some of its extensions UI give me a pre-web 2.0 vibe or look abandoned. (But its Mendeley importer extension is way better than Chrome's).
I occasionally run Firefox (out of nostalgia, idealism, or the need to test a site), and the fact that it is so slow is absolutely what stops me from switching back to it.
A more recent example: the Mississippian Culture in North America.

I think that's the point though, to give power when you need power, and fuel efficiency when you don't. So everyone does do it, because its a good thing. I think you're making a mistake about what crime they're accused of.

The tradeoff between efficiency and power is ok, but what they did is have software that detected when an emission test was being run and created a fake engine profile that only made fuel efficient tradeoffs, and when the emission test stopped the engine went back to the regular tradeoffs.

That was their crime. They hid what settings they were really picking and specifically wrote software to defeat an emissions test.
The real sad thing here is that some people are seeing sex with their wives as a "favour", something like a one sided affair....

Deep Thoughts by Jack Handey

To me, it's a good idea to always carry two sacks of something when you walk around. That way, if anybody says, "Hey, can you give me a hand?" you can say, "Sorry, got these sacks."
Well there could potentially be bigger animals in the future.
We spent a ton of time thinking about this. We have an "op executioner" in our tensor library that handles special cases like this. We call it "grid execution" where we look for opportunities for grouping ops automatically. We will be combining that with our new computation graph to automatically look for optimization opportunities like that.

Right now we hand write all of our own gradients as well.

The overhead can come from a ton of different places. This is why we wrote workspaces:
http://deeplearning4j.org/workspaces

Allocation reduction and op grouping are only a few things you can do.
I care, because I browse with JavaScript disabled.

The web is better without JavaScript.
Technically, so is chrome.
I think this is just creating the layout files, all the work of wiring it up still has to be done by the programmer. This is really cool and probably a glimpse of the future, but honestly it would probably be easier to train the designer on how to use the drag and drop UI builders that already come with these platforms.
Not entirely sure about caps at the amateur level. At least go servers don't have such cap, and there's certain mapping between KGS ranks to offline amateur ranks. The highest attainable rank at Go servers is 9d, aguilar is 6d there.

https://www.gokgs.com/graphPage.jsp?user=aguilar1

An informal mapping among ranking systems can be seen here:

http://senseis.xmp.net/?RankWorldwideComparison

Servers usually manually override ranks for professional players...

But going back to my point, a 9p should be consistently stronger than a 6 dan amateur, but these counterexamples challenge that.
What you're describing is more or less what Opera ended up doing. The upshot is that they have no leverage at all in standards discussions and pretty limited control, if any, over changes to Chrome that might break whatever features they've built on top of it.
> with not very nice tooling

The tooling is the best. Figwheel is hot reload that never goes down, devcards is revolutionary, and a browser repl for live in editor evaluation...

> significantly different from the existing javascript code base you already have

It actually isn't. Clojurescript is basically javascript that's immutable first, has underscore in it's core library, and then a bunch of other awesome language constructs. The libraries use the same patterns, re-frame is a nicer, more succinct abstraction over react-redux.

> poor interop to the existing js ecosystem

The interop might be the best out there. Seriously you can write javascript in clojurescript. you can straight up import es6 jsx javascript into your clojurescript code. (thanks Google Closure)

> For javascript, that crowd of alternatives is so much larger

I mean, what are the options? Clojurescript's benefits are so much more than the language. The real pluses for clojurescript are the Google Closure compiler, hot reload, browser repl, devcards, front end libraries. The language is the cherry on top. There are no alternatives that have a comparable platform not completely alien to JS developers.

The most popular newspaper and magazines in every country are things like Bild, The Sun, The Daily Maily. Basically celebrity gossip and scandals.

The most popular TV shows are of things with similar content or at least content quality.

What made you think that the internet or mobile would be any different? :)
It seems like Dat has some usability quirks that might take some getting used to:

- You can publish new versions to a URL until you somehow forget the private key, and then it's fixed forever, so long as people hang onto copies.

- There's nothing to prevent people from passing around a URL with a version in it. So, although it looks like the author has some control, this is an illusion; publishing is irrevocable and anything published could go viral. (This is generally true of making copies, but it's the opposite of Snapchat.)

- Suppose someone chooses to publish a private key? Is it a world-writable URL? Hmm.
I agree with you. HN, infact most people don't like or are comfortable to hear truth. Like how 15 - 20 years before ago could not really say that "How good you look absolutely matters". If HN has existed at that time, that would have got downvotes like you are getting now, for stating an "Idiotic steriotype"

Perhaps the 'step back' is that LFE is a Lisp-2 like Common Lisp whereas Clojure is a Lisp-1 like Scheme.

You might find Joxa interesting, it predates Elixir, but came after LFE and is patterned on Clojure.

The issue is more that I have to add, and use an immutable library vs it being just baked in to the language. I have to convert from and to JS. Worry about setting a deep value that is regular JS. It's janky is all.
That assumes the designers want to learn them. Sure, some of them are happy to, but this negates the need for them to do anything other than concentrate on their area of concern.
It's simple UI and it's fastest start up time are the main reasons why I use chrome most of the time.

Conceptnet looks really cool, I'm going to dig into that later tonight.

Dat's really similar to BitTorrent when it comes to availability; it doesn't do anything automatically to guarantee it. If you choose to use Dat, you'll need to ensure a peer exists, though public peer services will be available soon.

Dat's still young and you'll probably have to endure some hiccups, but if you do want to give it a try, PM me and I can help you get started.
This book definitely worth a read. Eventhough the examples are in Ruby, the concepts explained can be easily transferred to other languages as well.
