If you take such a broad definition of "politics", then the word becomes meaningless, since everything is "politics".

'jacquesm wrote about politics as in what politicians in the governments do. This is a particular thing, and I personally believe it's rarely useful to discuss it on HN.

extern sub is actively being worked on. The technical problem is not the ffi, this is trivial, but to fix the broken attributes architecture beforehand. They are not usable at runtime (variable arguments) and Attribute::Handlers only makes it worse.

Of course cperl is lacking compared to perl6 features, user facing. Because I had to fight first p5p sloth, like broken designs for everything. cow, const, threads, attributes, regex, scalar, arrays, hashes, functions, types, lecical $_, objects, symbols, unicode, build system, warnings, exceptions, the VM, ... http://perl11.org/blog/p5p-incompetence.html is a short overview of the technical problems to be fixed.

Professional use: read cperlpod cperl. No security process and competence, lack of progress, lack of maintainance of critical modules (cpan is fine, p5p and toolchain authors are the problem), no types, no compiler, recommending worst practices to move towards Java, no technical management, just community leaders without any idea what they are deciding, loosing all competent devs in the last decades and with just the remaining dead wood vocally protecting their turf, with the usual racial and more unpleasant slurs of the leadership towards its users and co-devs.
As company you wouldn't want to be associated with them, but their counter propaganda silencing and censoring the critics works well.
Creation Suite (Schibsted) | Senior Engineer | Oslo, Norway | Onsite | Full-Time

Schibsted Creation Suite is a digital only, award winning [0][1] news creation platform used by several newspapers, including the largest ones in Norway and Sweden. In total we are around 30 people, but you will be part of a smaller team (4 full stack devs, 1 UX and 1 PM in Oslo; 2 developers in Krakow) working on creating the next generation of personalized news delivery systems and related tools. We're small enough that you will have a big impact, but there's still plenty of career opportunities within the rest of Schibsted.

We're looking for a senior engineer that is very experienced with JavaScript and Node.JS (or so good at other stuff and willing to learn that it doesn't matter). The rest of our stack consists of Flowtype, PostgreSQL, Spinnaker and AWS (RDS, EC2, SNS, SQS, Kinesis). We're constantly experimenting and innovating and no strangers to trying new technology when we get a good opportunity. As of writing we're currently looking into linkerd.io.

You should also not be afraid of doing frontend development when it makes sense. We're currently using ReactJS and are contributing back to a open source system driven by Schibsted called Roc [2], that tries to alleviate some of the pain points of doing development in JS.

English is our working language so knowing Norwegian is not required. For The Right Candidate we are willing to help with relocation to Oslo

It should be added that there was major controversy about whether CFS was psychological in nature long before PACE, including a big public/media bustup around the 90s in the UK (and likely elsewhere) between CFS sufferers and many GPs.
True. The problem is - most of the political public sphere is just noise. To the point that e.g. following regular media sources is just a waste of time (and risks infecting the brain with lies).

Being efficiently engaged in local or global politics has little to do with discussing e.g. the latest media blunder of a politician, or whatever promise they made that probably won't happen anyway.
You're not responsible, perhaps, but you should think about it. Choosing an extreme example like kitchen knives is a bit disingenuous (hooray cherry-picking); there are plenty of things you could build that have positive, innocuous uses but also could be used for bad in a much less trivial way than a simple kitchen knife... and for some of those things, one might suggest that the builder is responsible.
Good point, I didn't notice that on the bottom. But I think my argument still stands that a link posted to his Twitter followers is a lot different then it posted for all of HN.
No one is saying that. Its what cost her the election.
This is about tax-evasion. While it's often difficult to disentangle the two activities, continually referring to tax dodging (or tax avoidance) is unhelpful and simply wrong. Every single sensible law-abiding taxpayer seeks to avoid and dodges taxes such that they arrange their affairs to minimize their tax bill. Revenue authorities work within the appropriate legal framework to maximize the tax they extract from individuals and organizations.
I must be misunderstanding you. Answers are the whole point of AMAs.

I think you may be underestimating the real-world messiness of this water sanitation example, and other types of problems where location-specific factors WILL make or break the project.

There's an enormous gap between knowing the specs of a pump and knowing which company will make one that won't break and will provide decent service for it. A water sanitation plant that would work in one part the US (or one part of a state) might fail in another due to any among hundreds of factors.

Any time you're doing something that involves silt, algae, microorganisms, weather, human factors... etc... those factors are likely to make a fool of you and your textbook. The "scoop from a grizzled veteran" suddenly becomes essential.

There's a well-known example of a sludge field that worked on a small scale but did not work when executed on a large scale. Total disaster. Hugely expensive project, requiring hugely expensive cleanup.

Sure, there are plenty of realms within tech where "grizzled veterans" aren't needed and where solutions can transfer and scale nicely. You can't safely extrapolate that to real-world problems.

In many endeavors, local knowledge can't safely be ignored, and hubris leads to tragedy.

Nina Munk's reporting on the Millenium Villages Project is illustrative of the difficulties one can be blindsided by when trying to get something done with insufficient regard for local conditions:

Agreed, but I don't think that's a good reason to avoid those sorts of discussions. HN has a much stronger tradition of moderation than most other sites, and while I wouldn't expect discussions involving politics to be perfect, I would still expect bad actors to be downvoted into oblivion.
I haven't looked at this specific calculation, but at the current levels of CO2, which won't go down in 100 years, Earth will reach a temperature equilibrium about 2°C higher than now.

Jökulsárlón lagoon in southern Iceland is a fascinating place for this - large blocks of ice break from the glacier at the top end and slowly float towards the outlet of the lagoon to the sea.

Near the outlet the iceburgs catch on the bed of the lagoon and tumble as they melt. There's a glorious variety of colours as the ice as the freshly exposed dark glacier ice is exposed - like in the attached article - before the ice surface melts and it returns to a white colour.

I wouldn't say so -- for a professional programmer, rule 30 is pretty fucking easy to implement in a few minutes, especially in Wolfram Language.

It's incredible how much he privileges a very small portion of the US population - fundamentalist neoconservatives - in his decisions. He probably just sees the people who become even more supportive of him in light of his fairly calculated malice as valuable idiots. He wants America to return to outmoded forms of energy production, because of "jahbs", and also wants to reduce taxes while the ultrarich already have what is essentially universal basic income via capital dividends, real estate, etc. For the prisoner's dilemma, this is like having a Grudger in the WH vs tit-for-tat players elsewhere.

Very much of his ethical system is predicated upon lying about good faith intent for the persistent preservation of outright disenfranchisement of the electorate. I hope that Americans will really say "I can't stand it any more" and change what they are able to. Maybe eventually decent politicians will be able and willing to prevent this obscene divergence of executive and popular opinion.
I own an apartment in the same few blocks that is featured in the article. And I have lived in NYC for many years (In fact I know the stores from 1990s that are written with forlorn). Yes that stretch of Bleecker had gone fancy and now empty. But there are stores around Bleecker that are from Bob Dylan days that still thrive. Mamoun's Falafel, Bleecker Street Pizza, Porto Rico Coffee etc. Even the newer food stalls are very affordable and you can get a meal for $8 (Turkiss, Thelawala, etc). Some of the leather shops from early 80s are still around. If someone from 1980s were teleported to today's Bleecker Street, they still have stores they used to go to. An d if I were to bet, they would acknowledge that Bleecker was in a state of flux even then. Old anchoring, but making way for the new, but largely still remaining "Bleecker".
Come down to this: your most sensitive data is in danger of one misplaced character or one wrong click.
The problem is the overhead of memory copy.

Linux is somewhat smart about it with its copy on write semantics (a double edged sword really). However, the moment you refer to an existing Python object the underlying data-structure gets mutated because of reference counting and boom now you have to copy the whole thing.

This can be worked around with creative stealing and by keeping a sharp lookout for references but it gets really painful and annoying.

Even if that were resolved its still not as flexible as one would want. One cant really go about spawning and terminating process too frequently. This forces one to move larger and larger parts of the logic into C.

> Choosing an extreme example like kitchen knives is a bit disingenuous

I completely disagree, I think most of the things that we build as developers are as innocuous as kitchen knives.

If you're building (for example) pen-testing software then I completely agree that you should be thinking about how this software might be used against others. But if you're building some software which helps run processes across multiple nodes then I don't think it's up to the developer to police how this software is used (What would they even do about it? You can't not write software like this just because it could be used for nefarious purposes.).

And I genuinely believe that 99% of us are writing software which is much more like the latter than the former.

I'm also a 1Password customer and just went back to their site to confirm this. I was pretty sure they didn't store my master password or my secret key, because that would be insane..

I wonder if in this case OneLogin was the victim of a MITM attach while the attacker had access to their infrastructure?

So they didn't decrypt data at rest that they obtained but rather they captured activity in transit?

Either way it sounds like OneLogin had some implementation issues.

I went and checked, and the OP seems to have been offended over this post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14358379

The OP posted "*he" as a "correction" for a "she" talking about Chelsea Manning, and seems to have been offended they got downvoted.

Apparently they may not be familiar with the difficulty of assigning gender. The least politically charged way to seeing this is to look at Olympic sports, and https://www.buzzfeed.com/azeenghorayshi/sex-testing-olympian... is a good overview.

I'd draw particular attention to the case of Ewa Klobukowska who was stripped of an Olympic Gold medal for "failing a chromosome test" (ie, exactly what the OP is claiming should be the arbitrator of gender).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maria_Jos%C3%A9_Mart%C3%ADnez-... is another case.

Ewa Klobukowska later had a son, and had her medals returned.

You should probably compare the U content of fly ash with the rocks around you for some context.

The average U content of the upper continental crust is between 2 and 3 ppm. Individual rocks will range lower and higher than that. If fly ash is only 4 ppm U, you have more to worry about from living on granitic rocks, or near a swamp than you do from fly ash.

More context: if you live on the Chattanooga shale it has an average U content of 30-120 ppm. The extensive Alum Shale (runs the length of Sweden) has U contents of 100-300 ppm. Granites will have low-mid 10s of ppm U and Th.

The report [1] linked in a comment above makes the comment Fly ash is commonly used as an additive to concrete building products, but the radioactivity of typical fly ash is not significantly different from that of more conventional concrete additives or other build-ing materials such as granite or red brick. One extreme calculation that assumed high proportions of fly-ash-rich concrete in a residence suggested a dose enhancement, compared to normal concrete, of 3 percent of the natural environmental radiation.

You don't need cryptcurrencies to do this. I guess you can, but if that is your main reasons you will probably face more trouble than you'll solve.
While on paper your objection stands, I feel that in practice things are different. This I derive from observing and participating in such threads.

The problem is politics is so opinion and status-based that it crosses this magical threshold where even otherwise level-headed people just lose it. It's toxic beyond what even HN's regular moderation mechanisms can handle. The other thing is, it's easy for politics to drown all other topics - political issues speak well to our "someone is wrong on the Internet" instincts, and there's always something outrage-inducing to be posted.

While I personally don't mind an occasional political discussion (and I like when it's not political per se, but more e.g. economical or military-strategy type, in which people post many interesting facts and ways of reasoning I haven't seen before), I wouldn't like those topics to keep dominating the front page (happened a few times in the past).
> Now the UK is leaving the EU, he is likely to lose the right to live in France.

This is very unlikely. While much about Brexit is unclear, it seems nearly certain that there will be provisions that British nationals can continue living in the EU and vice versa. No country involved wants to change the status for people who already emigrated. Discussions focus more around the exact rights (e.g. if the European Court of Justice remains responsible for EU citizens in the UK) and about movement of people after Brexit.

And even if you only move to Europe in a few years, it's likely that you will get a visa much easier than with a non-European passport.
