Remember watching the evening news with my dad when they finally announced it publicly. They completely downplayed it. In came in as "Oh by the way, an accident at ChAES happened, next up - sports...".

Here I found the 20 seconds blurb: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ouJjaV_NbY (sorry in Russian, obviously).

My dad, a mechanical engineer, also specializing in workplace safety was really concerned and told me. "This is bad. They are probably downplaying the accident who knows who horrible it really is...".

The fact that people knew government lied routinely in cases like that, nobody believed them so all kinds of rumors started to circulate.

My mom kept some flowers on the balcony. She claimed they died that year because of the radiation. I don't really believe that was the cause, but it just explains the anxiety and worry people experienced.

Then there was a call to go help clean up. They promised money, even better apartments for volunteers (housing was government provided). Some went and they came back to a new apartment but they didn't enjoy it for too long. Others told stories of people burned so badly by the radiation their skin and meat was falling off their bones.

Another really sad thing happened when evacuees started streaming to different cities. They were shunned and treated horribly by others. It was paranoia, prejudices and mistrust. Mixed with lots of irrational fear ("Maybe they are still radioactive, I wouldn't get near them". I can remember my uncle saying...). How horrible. Those poor people had to leave everything behind only to be faced by that kind of attitude.
Why I Invested in Bitcoin (2013)
1. PG specifically writes this in his Startup FAQ (www.paulgraham.com/startupfaq.html)
"Most successful startups have more than one founder, and usually the founders seem to have been friends for at least a year before starting the company."

2. Yes.
I guess that could indeed be annoying for reading code, especially if the labelled block/loop is very long (I personally usually end up using these for short nested loops, longer loops usually get broken out into separate functions, and the biggest teams/programs I've worked on haven't been using languages that have this feature). That said, the extra structure/more restrictions of labelled breaks lends itself to compilers and other tooling being more helpful, both for optimisations (although SSA + basic blocks that most compilers now use makes this somewhat irrelevant) and for catching mistakes while, for instance, refactoring.

In any case, I strongly disagree that labelled breaks aren't better than regular breaks: the chains of booleans required otherwise are very annoying and error prone.
Panama drops diplomatic ties with Taiwan, switches to China
I don't have a stance on the issue either way, but that's not a fair comparison. HN is free because it makes YC one of the most powerful tech organizations on the planet. (HN is one of the main reasons YC is in its current position. But that's a topic for another time.)

It's the same reason Reddit is free: because that makes Reddit one of the most influential news sources circa 2017.
"complete their functionality"

Depends on your judgement of complete functionality. If you only need the functionality short of the IAP, then what's wrong with using the free app?

And if you want the full functionality and are happy to pay the IAP, why not just consider it a paid app with something of a trial?

On the latter point, given there is no real app store functionality for trials, free with IAP should be cut some slack when done properly IMO.
Microsoft has a campus in Vancouver (well, Richmond, originally - it moved to downtown Vancouver later) since 2007. There was around 600 people there last year, mostly devs.

Disassembly reveals the inner workings of Seattle's SR 99 tunneling machine
None of that is relevant to the ability of “traditional economics” to decide between being a descriptive and a normative field, as all are examples of hypothesized predictive models, not normative ones. They may seem naive from the perspective of a field focussed on behavior at a more micro level (even microeconomics aims at predicting higher-level aggregate behavior than psychology), and, heck, they may even be hopelessly naive, but that's not even German e to the question.

(And whether or not an economist was there to put an imprimatur on it, all of those descriptions are mischaracterizations, but again that's neither here nor there.)

I think for international customers it's better to buy a working product with international support like yubikey rather than a crippled product like this.
Extended attributes can do this for most unixy operating systems. See fsetattr and fgetattr. It's a bit tricky in that the standard tools, like find, don't support them directly. But, the tags stay with the files, no separate DB needed. You do have to pay attention to copying, backups, etc, to make sure they are preserved, and no separate DB means all "queries" are full scans.

That kind of stuff is (or at least supposed to be) factored into taxation. And it is - income taxes in Canada are definitely higher than in US. The other differences that people are complaining about here are above and beyond that.
> It's kind of crazy that in the US, ... a 9 month dev boot camp can have you earn similar to many university level degrees.

This speaks more about the relevance of these [university level] degrees than how high dev salaries are.
This is a situation where I think not being "real code" is a feature of terraform. You declaratively represent your infrastructure rather than generate it with real code.
Sure. Changed from https://www.math.columbia.edu/~woit/wordpress/.
Our iOS app with Java backend was using long for database IDs on both ends. I was going through the ILP32->LP64 conversion process and when I realized we had a pretty serious discrepancy.

I think it's a really easy mistake for the first developer to make (especially because they weren't a C/Obj-C programmer), and then the sort of thing that no one audits after that.
The onus is up to the professional using the software to vet it before employing it in their practice, afaik.

There are some guidelines for writing software in regulated industries, eg: FDA Part 11 and Annex 11 in the EU for food and drug manufacturing.

However it's more of a speed limit situation. If you're willing to risk your client getting audited while you're speeding you could get yourself and your client in trouble with the industry watch dog.

That being said I think our industry does need professional recognition and liability. That's not a bad thing... it just means you can't be reckless and you have to have someone with a PE on your team. I know SV likes to move fast without their permission but that's insane when it comes to protecting the public interest. Just look at the vulnerabilities and shady practices in automobile automation, testing, verification, etc, etc.

We could do a lot better and build more reliable things if there were some guiding hands leading the way.

The problem with these is that rent may start low, so that builders don't face opposition, but within a few years they're sky high.
My ISP (Spectrum) only enables IPv6 to a subset of their "supported" cable modem list. In other words, if you don't have the right cable modem, you may get IPv4 but don't get IPv6.

It's possible your provider may do the same.
I never really understood the arguments against "non-deterministic" testing. A property based test will check more cases, and therefore detect more bugs, than the corresponding hand-chosen unit tests (in which you probably forgot at least 2 of the important corner cases).

All determinism guarantees is that you'll either reliably detect a bug or reliably not detect a bug, and hence get a nice aesthetic line of green checkmarks followed by red crosses in your test history. Or just get a nice looking line of green and not even know the bug is there. This seems like a small thing to sacrifice to detect more bugs.

Of course, regular unit tests have their place too, when your specification can't really be expressed as a "forall" property.
China's long standing dollar diplomacy at work.
I think OP's point was that a 20 second blurb, no matter how truthful or accurate, is downplaying the situation.

If an analogous event happened in the US, all entertainment programming would be suspended and there would be continuous news coverage on all the major channels for several days, just like after 9/11.
Back in the days it was probably 7 bits, but the word size is not that important. The problem still exists today with a modern 64 bit computer:

Even if a system internally can store a timestamp with nanosecond precision since the beginning of the universe, all that precision is lost when communicating with another system if it must send the timestamp as a six character string formated as "yymmdd" in ASCII.
PG isn't God.

There are lots of reasons not to found with friends. Often, it's just that you're choosing someone you'd have fun working with over someone who's the right fit. Other times, your judgment is impaired by your affection for that person, and you can't determine whether they're a good fit or not.
A lot of apps are like this. I know dev who were like "They made that all that money off Angry Birds." Didn't Rovio have a bunch of terrible ideas that failed and Angry Birds was one of their last ditch projects?
Canada is currently in an awkward middle ground between capitalist free-for-all and European-style welfare state. Thus, people who care more about money, and people who care more about good social support (which includes things like healthcare, public transit, clean streets, and so forth that benefit people regardless of level of income) can both find something to complain about.
Drugmaker Behind Vivitrol Tries to Cash in on Opioid Epidemic, State by State
Broadly controlling human migration at the border is a relatively recent thing (as in, just over a century). Taking US as an example where this sort of thing is a controversial political topic today - in most of the 19th century, if you had access to any means of transportation necessary to get there (including walking across the border from, say, Mexico or Canada), that was all you needed to become a legal resident. Yet the country did just fine.

So it's not at all a given that the current system with tightly regulated borders, visas, conditions of residence etc will still be in place in 100 years.

Alibaba Cloud vs AWS: Who Will WIN – Ma vs. Bezos
A country has a responsibility to the people already there (especially citizens) first. As long as you have people starving, who need help and money, etc, accepting NEW people who also need help is kind of a kick in the nuts.

If you take in more people, it's because it is in the best interest of the people currently there.

That might mean as a way to grow the economy, as a tax source, maybe even just as a general way to increase happiness because existing citizens like it. Maybe it's to ensure the country's reputation among other countries.

But you don't let people in just for shits and giggles unless everyone already there are fed and happy. And that never happens, so...
I can't seem to find it anywhere but what is the interconnect between servers being used? NVLink is used internally for GPU to GPU communication within a single box...correct? But this sounds like it takes a cluster of 32 of their 8 GPU Big Basin boxes.
tl;dr they found a clever way to spread the training across 256 GPUs by synchronising the stochastic gradient descent
Exactly. In effect, they'll be luring people who would become American workers eventually, but can't because of H1B quotas, green card queue etc.
This was shown to be effective once before by some researchers in 2013.[0] Sadly it's probably still a very effective tool, particularly with the explosion in other social media platforms.

There's no bullet proof way. Different people will do different thing, some people will be loyal to the end of time, others not so much. Sometimes not even in a pre calculated way, people go in thinking they will be super loyal, then something shifts, and they do things that undermine you. Also very hard when people strategize against you, there's no full proof way of doing things, just a lot of guidance to avoid known problems. History is full of stories of betrayal by inner circles... so you are not alone, just somewhat wiser to the nature of the beast
A new trick for calculating Jacobian vector products
The path I've seen many immigrants take (particularly young people who don't mind re-settling twice) is move to Canada, live here for 3 years, get citizenship then move to the US on a TN visa. I would say 50% of the international students I knew in engineering school did this. As you probably know Canada is by far the easiest G7 country to be naturalized as a citizen.

Others come to Canada with the intention of doing this and end up staying cause hey, life is pretty good in Canada and after 3 years you may have family ties here.

The mistake I've seen immigrants make is move to Canada, then move to the US on an H1B, L1 or other visa before attaining Canadian citizenship, lose their Canadian PR due to leaving the country permanently, then lose their US job & visa and end up having to return to their original country.

The interviews are interesting.

I was a kid those days, and my mother keeps telling me that diary products were suddenly put on a sale (before the news release). I live in Eastern-Europe, in the former Warsaw Pact bloc. My father worked in a research institute, so managed to get a hold of the information before the official announcements. He told her not to buy any diary or vegetable for a while.

What troubles me is the contant flow on anti-nuclear-power propaganda to HN. If we accept the fact of global warming, and humanity as its cause, then the fearmongering about nuclear power should stop, as it is a necessary component in reducing CO2 emissions while not giving up too much from our lifestyle. With the lessons learned from the nuclear accidents we have every measure to avoid them in the future, until the fusion technology is ready, and to have reliable, zero-emission power in our energy mix.

Just because bike riders aren't labelled as such, doesn't mean that the Tesla software doesn't see them as generic obstacles and avoid them successfully.

I wasn't attempting to do so. I probably could have been a little more careful with my wording, though.

Alright, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

Here's a basic example that I find very analogous: Imagine having friend who is currently struggling with money, and you have just received a large bonus. It seems very reasonable to be a bit more careful with how one shares the good news with this friend. In fact, it isn't hard to imagine a scenario in which one unintentionally comes off as a jerk if they didn't remember about the friend's situation.

If someone has experienced very little discrimination in life, then how is it unreasonable to tread carefully when asking difficult and potentially naive questions about discrimination to those who have experienced a fair amount?

I can be sympathetic about the plight of an individual. But I am not of the opinion that living in a society full of people that belong to my groups is a net-negative for people that don't belong to my groups. Which seems to be the underlying assumption of wringing your hands over being a 'privileged white male'.

No, partially hydrogenated oil is not saturated, it's unsaturated. Today we give is a separate category of "trans", but back then it was listed with the unsaturated fats. They made sure not to let it run far enough that any of it was saturated.

Which is exactly why it was made! Specifically to look good on food labels. (And because it was cheap.)

Such a huge mistake.

(Fully hydrogenated fat is saturated.)
What you end up then is "pushy" cultures become the norm, and "more open" (from a lack of better term, I know that's not really accurate) get phased out.

Essentially, everything will be China given long enough (I'm obviously exaggerating). There might be a few people of middle eastern descent too. Maybe.
The Rise of Cryptohooliganism
"6. Young American liberals have become so annoying about political correctness causes such as workplace sexual politics that I have really come to hate that aspect of working in America and I am inclined to support Uber just to annoy them (being honest here, I didn't claim my post would be appreciated)."

I've frequently observed people taking untenable positions that they know are wrong, they don't actually believe in, and they can't justify or defend, just to be a dick, in order to punish somebody who hurt their feelings but was right. But you're the first person I've ever seen actually come out and admit that is what they do.

Kudos on your honesty, if for nothing else. There are a whole lot of people who behave like you but don't admit it. It's not an original, ethical, constructive or intelligent behavior, but you're just the first person I've seen openly admit that's how they operate.

You'll tolerate sexual harassment, but only because somebody who was against it annoyed you, and you wanted to annoy them back. Was it more annoying for you to experience someone who is annoyingly intolerant of sexual harassment, than it is annoying to actually be sexually harassed?

The Paradox of Annoyance sound like the evil corollary to the Paradox of Tolerance.

Meta: It's interesting to note how different the writing is 20 years later. It seems like it's much more complex than most writing today.

What they do at the end is moot. Their domain, or a third party domain, asks you to enter bank credentials. The red flag is that you are not entering your credentials in your bank's website. Most other places ask you for your account and routing number, and do ACH micro deposits, after which you confirm the deposited amount. Gemini doesn't do that. The only way to avoid that on Gemini is go the wire route, which will incur a $20-$30 charge from your bank.

Partly money. "Rolling a truck" is one of the most expensive operational costs for a utility. Sending people places to fix problems is not ideal, especially when those places can be substations or transformers in the middle of nowhere.

Partly, sometimes, people don't understand what systems are connected to which networks. Maybe it's a logical misunderstanding -- they're leasing a communications path that they don't realize is connected to the Internet. Sometimes it's a physical misunderstanding, they just never diagrammed everything and have no idea what's isolated and not.
I remember Gene. We worked together on a demo for the launch of AWS Workspaces, back when I was a Tech Evangelist. Unfortunately, at the last moment we couldn't present it at re:Invent. Can't disclose much else (unless you buy me a good espresso in SF).

I don't like non-compete agreements. They are now far away from their intended purpose. It's wrong to point fingers at a single company, though - the entire sector suffers from this.
No, they are not. But ideally the advantage the 'richer' party has in influencing the effort of the investigators/judiciary to put forth more effort on their behalf is not written policy, it is corruption/cronyism. Should we create policy that prioritizes investigating an auto theft of a $100,000 automobile with more resources and severity that the theft of a $20,000 one, simply because the value is larger, or weight the effort based on the tax contribution of the victim? I would say absolutely not.
Pistol sights
For the new A10x:

From https://daringfireball.net/2017/06/the_2017_ipad_pros

"the new iPad Pro holds its own against the MacBook Pro in single-core performance — around 3,900 on the Geekbench 4 benchmark for the iPad Pro vs. around 4,200–4,400 for the various configurations of 13- and 15-inch MacBook Pros.1 Multi-core performance has effectively doubled from the first generation of iPad Pro. That sort of year-over-year increase just doesn’t happen anymore, but here we are. The new iPad Pro gets a multi-core Geekbench 4 score of around 9200; the brand-new Core M3-based MacBook gets a multi-core score of around 6800."

The battery in the 12.9" iPad Pro is 38.8 Wh, while the 12" MacBook is 39.71 Wh, so about the same. Apple quotes about 10 hours battery life when doing lighter tasks like web browsing.

So it must be pretty close if not surpassing it now. Depends how much credibility you put on Geekbench.
