The parent comment was asking about GA vs Authy.

Responses were like GA is better because there's no SMS.
This is true if you look at GA vs Authy mobile apps.

This is false, if you look at the consumer services where you enabled 2fa (Google, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Coinbase, Twitch...). They all require SMS to setup 2fa, and let you use SMS to bypass GA.

You can not bypass GA with an SMS (the TOTP), you can bypass the service 2fa, because for availability reasons they must provide you more than a single 2fa method.
Yep, but I suppose much of the growth of the coins' value is a bump at the end, whereas the stock grows quietly ?
Yes a lot of the time. I also deliberately didn't mention the IRA by name, as there were a number of groups involved on both sides. A counter example would be the 'Real IRA' and the Omagh bombing where it appears the telephone warning was designed to move more people into the path of a bomb

Ask HN: Why shouldn't I leave Google?
- I'm 26
- 2 years experience as a SWE at Google (my 1st ever job)
- Enough cash to live the next ~2 years even with no salary
- Unfulfilled at Google
- Dreaming of starting my own company

Keeping all these in mind, why am I so afraid of leaving Google?

My mentor suggested to stay at Google until I find an interesting startup idea to work on. I want to spend 6 months in SE Asia and travel the world before starting my company.

Is fear really whats holding me back? Is Google too good of a workplace to leave?
>Unlike FORTRAN and Lisp, it begat nothing.

Which programming language was begat by FORTRAN? The ALGOL family seems rather independent to me.

Both FORTRAN and COBOL had the misfortune to be created before structured programming. Others, like FORTH and LISP were lucky that they are flexible enough to easily add new programming conventions.

You could probably say that modern report generators were begat by COBOL to some degree (even though FORTRAN had formatted output too)

It seems programming languages designed to be "easy to use" suffer from lots of people writing really terrible code with it. Excel or VB have similar issues.
It needs to be considered within the bracket of car you're dealing with. Insurance will always be higher for higher end cars. I imagine putting a dent in a Rolls Royce is not a cheap matter either.

The big costs in insurance though I think are medical bills, which could run well above the total cost of the car. In this respect, Tesla's should be much cheaper to insure then say a Bugatti.

The way it's put there, it sounds like it had already been around a while. It's possible Branson was the first person to apply it to airlines. I see a lot of people attributing it to Robert Crandall, former CEO of American Airlines, but can't find anything actually quoting him on it. He did say, "A lot of people came into the airline business. Most of them promptly exited, minus their money," which is pretty similar in spirit.
COBOL 2002 is object oriented. Not sure if that is what you mean by modernized and I'm also not sure how many people actually use it. I have the specification for COBOL 2002 and have been meaning to write a compiler for it but just haven't taken the time to sit down and actually do it (especially because there is no simple BNF grammar in the spec and I'd have to piece it all together).
You might be able to use Rosette to implement refinement types on top of Hackett, giving you (I guess?) Liquid Hackett.
I think it depends highly on what kind of developer you are and what your workflow is like. For some developers, frequent compiling is part of the development process. For others, it's something you do at the end (or after large chunks of work) to test/verify.

If you're one of those "Work on the next line, keep changing it until it compiles, then keep changing it until it runs" developers, then yea you'll want fast compiles.

If your workflow is such that you take your time, do your work once, and compile/run/test as the last step before you're ready to commit, then it doesn't really matter if your project takes 20 minutes to compile. You're only doing it once or twice a day.

I've typed my most sensitive password on public IRC once. I assumed my screen was locked while my display came back to life after sleep mode. For some reason, my screen wasn't locked and the IRC window had the focus instead.

The great thing was that, even though that was my most sensitive password (the only that unlocks my desktop and encrypted folders), it didn't matter because all I had to do was immediately change the password in the only two places it was used.

I will never trust generation of site-specific passwords from a single master password. Too many things could go wrong. There could be a bug in the derivation algorithm, crypto might become brute-forcable, etc.
This paper is highly exciting for anybody working on the neural code and so-called encoding models.

Only few days ago there was a similar study reading faces from human brains by trying to construct a latent space:

Given the limitations of fMRI (we can not do single cell recordings in human brains) the results are not as accurate, but to my knowledge this is the best we can do in humans so far.

Yes the correlation is lawmakers are more likely to raise the minimum wage when employment levels are high.
All true. Downvotes wholly unjustified. Penultimate sentence says it all. Great movie though.
They're arguing the insurance costs will always be more for higher end cars, so comparing the cost of repair to a much cheaper car makes no sense.

If there is a car 1/10th the cost of a Tesla but the Tesla is 3x as safe, you would still expect the Tesla's insurance to be more.
"It ended up costing him $13K, although clearly his fault I felt bad for the guy."

Wouldn't his liability insurance have paid for damage to another vehicle? I'd expect that the only cost to the driver might be an increase on his insurance premium for having been at fault in a collision.
who were you looking at as a registrar? I used Web4Africa and it wasn't bad for .i.ng but I wasn't able to find any .ng that I wanted so I guess I didn't get a good idea of the price.
No matter the methodology in this report, common sense tells otherwise. It's a basic economic tenet that as the price of a good or service raises, less is purchased (Except for Giffen goods [1]).

As a thought exercise, consider the effect of raising the minimum wage to $100 in a town. What would happen to restaurants in that town? They would have to raise their prices drastically to cover the new expenses. Customers who were accustomed to eating out would flinch at the much higher prices and either eat at home or go to a neighboring town. The end result would be closed restaurants in the town and fewer jobs. Of course with a much smaller raise in the minimum wage in the town, the effect would likely be lost in the standard noise of restaurants closing and opening but the effect would still be true.

My first class in Navy Nuclear School in 1975 was slide rule use.
As an American speaker who grew up in the south and lives in the Midwest, that's not true in every case. When addressing a mixed group, "hey guys" can usually work. When talking about a group of unspecific people, it can work, but mostly because our cultural default is to assume male. When talking about a group of specific individuals "the guys in the office are smart" I would take that to be more specifically male. It's definitely not unambiguously mixed gender. In the case of the GP, the word was used to make a point about the ambiguity of the word, in a way that's very naturally idiomatic for a native English speaker, imo.
It sounds like the main issue here is repair cost. The cost of repairs is about twice as much, which could at least partially explain why there's also around 50% more claims.

Most people only report incidents to insurance if the damage exceeds the cost of their deductable. If repairs to Teslas cost twice as much that could push a non-trivial amount of repairs over that threshold.

Elon should make repair parts and shop training a higher priority. One of the only advantages of the dealership model is having a large force of mechanics very familiar with your vehicles. Perhaps Tesla should partner with some shops or build their own in locations with Tesla offices.

I kinda agree that the Model S certainly isn't bought for the same reasons as a luxury SUV. It's kinda funny that they're not comparing one of the fastest cars in the world against other supercars. Sound like someone at AAA has stock in Ferrari or something :).
Another possible consideration, if the average cost of repair is higher (assuming for the sake of the argument that all Tesla's drivers involved in accidents were not at fault) the insurance companies will need (ahem, cough, cough) to raise the costs of all other contracts to compensate.

This of course is not limited to Tesla's, wherever there are more "luxury" cars driven it is more likely that insurance claims will be higher and the insurance companies are likely to spread the delta on all contracts.

I do not know ubiome, but "Our lab uses cutting-edge DNA sequencing to identify your bacteria" seems to me a bit optimistic.
Sequencing DNA on an beforehand unknow species, to identify it, is difficult. There are large variations in DNA in bacterias that are of the same species but that are a meter apart from each other.
What is meant exactly by sequencing DNA? DNA is long, probably they are using bioinformatics on very (non coding) specific sequences, not on whole DNA.
What DNA are they sequencing? Most probably not from the cell DNA but DNA from the mitochondria which is much simpler (but equally variable).
What are they sequencing? Are they sure and why, they are not polluted by anything in the intestinal tract?

Do you believe there's a somewhat fixed wage threshold (for now or 20 years later) that when it's passed McDonalds begins to consider replacing workers with self-service machines?

Or that the self-service machines are going to arrive regardless of the wage, with the only difference being McDonalds keeping workers on $10/h wage 3-5 years longer than they would keep the $15/h workers?

What happens when the entire self-serving machinery costs as much as it does to pay one or two employees for a year? Does it make sense for McDonalds to keep human employees at any wage?
Could Tesla just create an insurance company and offer their own insurance for Tesla cars? They could probably offer a better rate than other companies.

In the helicopter world, I think this is what Frank Robinson did - created Pathfinder insurance that offered the cheapest insurance for Robinson helicopters.

Automation is already being explored essentially everywhere, so I'm not sure motivation is a big part of it. The question is more whether it's feasible, both technically and economically, in a given case. In principle, yes, a minimum wage helps the economics of automation by making the "competition" more expensive. But with the kinds of modest wage changes typically proposed, it's a pretty marginal impact: +10% to wages might move up automation that was going to happen anyway by 6 or 12 months, but it's not the kind of change that meaningfully impacts the progress of automation on a larger scale.
Yeah, I had the same impression.

I'll concede that I probably use my phone less than a lot of people, but this looks like a "solution in search of a problem" to me. I'm still using a Nexus 5 that's several years old, and my battery rarely drops below 80% over the course of the day. (I only charge my phone when I sleep, and never "top it off" during the day.)

When I do need to charge it, I plug it in, and can get a full charge in about an hour, if I remember correctly.

Even if we were to assume that this product is viable technologically (which is a big "if"), my hunch is that it won't be viable commercially for much longer as advances in battery and phone technology make it irrelevant.
I think for the reasons cited by the parent comment: the cost of repairs are higher than for other vehicles, so the incentive to file a claim is greater for a broader set of collision events.

Let's say they are involved in exactly the same number of collisions and the same severity distribution. If the costs for repair are higher across the board, claims are more likely for repairs that would have otherwise been paid out of pocket by owners of other vehicles.

If my 10-year old car is involved in a minor collision and the estimated cost of repair is $250, I am just going to pay for it and not bother with an insurance claim. If instead I owned a car that was more costly to repair, and the repair estimate for my collision were $2,500, I might decide to file a claim.

> I don't get why you'd compare to other cars at all.

Because it's good marketing. Not only are Tesla putting forward a counter argument (albeit one that's easily dismissed by most of us on here) but they're also promoting the exclusivity of their brand in the process.

It's like in job interviews where you spin your negatives into positives rather than admitting you might have poor organisation skills or spend too much time on HN.
Yeah, and, What I'm asking is, why wouldn't Africans, let's say, from a particular country, have a genetic intelligence advantage hidden by these factors. After all, Western society has been quite dysgenic lately. But somehow I get the sense what your wording has revealed is that you have some expectation that will make you comfortable, like equality or it being relatively close, and then you've gone on to seek out explanations that satisfy you, and then stopped. It sounds like a bunch of feel good story-telling.
Why would a rich tesla driver be a better customer? What if they make a bunch of claims? Insurance is about having predictable data. In this case it looks like Tesla drivers are making too many claims so they need to make premiums higher.

Crispr’s Next Big Debate: How Messy Is Too Messy?
Agreed. In a robust employment market, lawmakers will raise the minimum wage to a level that is still lower than the market rate. The effect is pretty much zilch except for the lowest of the low-level employee. For them, the minimum wage acts as a safety net.

Donald Trump's Conflicts of Interest: A Crib Sheet
>>(I miss the 5mph bumper standard. For a few years in the 1980s, US cars were required to have bumpers that could withstand a 5mph collision with no damage. I have a Ford Bronco which complies with that. It was once rear-ended by a SamTrans van. The van's nose and front end collapsed, as it should, for crush depth. Damage to the Bronco was a bent bracket for the trailer power connector.)

The problem with older cars is that in a crash at a higher speed(even 30mph) you might be left with a fully functional bronco and a dead driver, while the van(or any newer car) is absolutely destroyed but the driver doesn't have a scratch.

I mean I guess we could make cars that are still safe in collisions but which can survive minor fender benders without much damage, but I don't have enough data on this.
I have always thought that spare time is quite clearly a giffen good for significant amount of people. (If it was not, people would work shorter days in sweatshops than western middle class jobs.)

And if spare time is giffen good, it is quite natural that increase in minimum wages does not increase unemployment.
