Same here. On the other hand it has not, as far as I know affected my life - nobody in my country seems to be working on AMP projects, nobody I consult for has ever asked for it, I don't think I ever end up on an AMP page. Really for me it seems like a technology that is failing fast, but what I hear from the U.S seems to threaten the opposite.
For the phones, that can be pulled regardless of the app's security.

If the legal framework is laid out, government can tell Google or Apple (or phone vendor) to push a system-level update. It is trivial for both to push code that can run without any restrictions, have full access to screen, audio, camera and network.

Not sure why they bother, though. Wasn't it said many times almost every baseband module is already a black box with possibility of undetectable access to the main CPU/memory?
> In short, we over-reward those at the top and dismiss the rest. It’s an unhelpful and unnecessary bias that facilitates hero worship, undermines the goal of nurturing creativity and discourages valuable contributions to communities, worthy causes and scientific projects.

This happens in every research community. The hero worship also tends to over-fund certain areas because of how the agenda is effectively set by a few researchers.

One way that may help fix this is if there's a way to generate a crowd-sourced network of links whose purpose is to plot as a graph the current gaps and challenges of the field. It's perhaps easier in fields with clear subject boundaries like physics.

We could then observe how individual knowledge contributions have helped (are helping) progress the growing knowledge "surface." Young researchers could also observe areas of neglect and attack those instead of going where everyone else is. Reward people who grow the knowledge surface, irrespective of their background.
Same thing, I'm a TShirt + Jeans type person and didn't understand this at first.

Make sure the jeans you have don't have holes / rips in them. Get some new TShirts - don't wear older / faded ones.

Make sure what you wear is in good condition, and you should be good.

If you're not happy in boring shirts, then there are some that have prints that are a bit more interesting. Similarly for shoes; I tend to really not be keen on average brown / black - but blue suede was OK.

Obv not saying to wear those exact things, but if you have a look around you can find stuff you like a little even in styles you might not like over all.

Agile methods are people stuff. Agile is just another management strategy.

Standard engineering design breaks projects into discrete steps, it's not at all unique to Agile. Doing that is essentially the definition of "work breakdown structure". Course correction time is built into Gantt charts. Engineers have had to deal with constantly changing requirements, minimal development time, etc, since long before software came around. They're further constrained because you can't just ship a patch to a bridge or plane after it's completed. And yet they manage to get reliable, functional work done!

Agile is management with ADD. Waterfall is a straw man process that no competent organization would use.

> "That’s because the process of developing any new drug is extremely expensive and the potential profit in an antibiotic after that massive investment is relatively low. ... At current usage levels a new antibiotic, he says, would only have about two years on the market before bacterial resistance to it develops."

Seems to me that the patent system, meant to encourage invention, is seriously broken in the case of antibiotics. So stop using it. Set up a bounty system instead. Pay drug companies directly for developing new antibiotics. Without the pressure of having to sell them quickly we can instead use them more strategically, even holding some in reserve.
Sounds great. But how do we check if what they say is true?
Because they call out the "slacker" generation of the 1990's like it's a good proxy for everyone in the US. The people anxious today were probably anxious back then too!

> that doesn't lead to a wack-a-mole game

Stored-program general purpose computers are a fundamentally a threat to any entrenched power that relies on being able to control any potential risk with physical, legal, economic, or social force. The only real way to control software that is no longer scarce is to find a way to hobble the "universal computing machine" so it is no longer universal.

Cory Doctorow's warning[1] about the War On General Purpose Computing received a lot of attention, but I suspect his far more important followup[2] about the looming Civil War over General Purpose Computing was had a much smaller audience. Dan Geer suggested[3] that this "Cold Civil War" has been ongoing for a long time already. With this new push by FVEY nations against crypto, it looks like the war is starting to heat up.

> where comms do go dark

That's just not true. Metadata is everywhere and will likely only get even more informative into the future. As Susan Landau explained[4] in her testimony to Congress, the only people "going dark" are the people trying to "preserve 20th century investigative techniques [while] our enemies are using 21st century technologies against us." Complaining about "going dark" is just misdirection away from a total failure to update investigative techniques to not just keep up with changing technology, but to take advantage of the new opportunities created by our growing sea of {,meta}data.

Ask HN: How to learn machiavalleian techniques?
I strongly suspect my manager has dark triad personality. I read about psychology besides writing code and I feel that he is worried that, I as an upcoming manager, might replace him. He covertly denies me opportunity wherever possible. I made it clear to him that I am interested in management but I feel that he purposely denies me opportunity while giving same to others.

Where can I learn machiavalleian tricks and techniques to gain power? I am a bit of narcissistic (healthy dose) but not a dark triad.

What are ways to get ahead in the careeer even if that means using machiavalleian techniques? Where can I read and learn them?
But why do we have to stick to rules of thumb and causation links?

This rule has a glaring hole in it: according to it, the moment allies landed in Normandy and Soviet Union moved the fight into mainland Germany, Nazi Reich became more moral than the adversary. Can't we at least come up with better heuristics than this?

(Yes, about Godwin's law: WWII is just a classical example that has an ethical consensus about it. If it makes you more comfortable, you can replace it with Gondor's armies storming the Black Gate.)
I have started to take a more active role in my wife's ongoing treatment for this very reason. While I generally like her doctor, his willingness to bounce from drug-to-drug in an effort to treat her depression and anxiety is incredibly troubling for me as someone who grew up in a society where medication was seen as a last resort in the treatment cycle.

She has now been on Xanax, Cymbalta, Lyrica, Klonopin, Ativan .... I could go on. Every time she begins a new medicine or comes off an existing one is a trying time for both of us as the side effects (both mental and physical) can be incredibly brutal.

Oh my god this is such a true statement!!!

Unless you want to be curled up on a couch for 5 days and sleepless with your muscles and forehead visibly spasming every 15 seconds, DON'T take any benzos, and DON'T quit them cold turkey.

I had the misfortune of experiencing this first hand, but others have had it much worse, going into seizures and dying after trying to quit benzos for years.

There are definitely other treatment options. Don't mess with benzos unless you absolutely cannot bear an acute situation!!!

Good luck to everyone who is truly suffering out there! You can make it through !! :)

I meant boredom in a general sense, where you have control over your variables (ie you're bored by yourself, with yourself, at home).

If you're bored at work, that's a little more complicated. It depends on the context you're in. Is there "nothing to do", or is there NOTHING TO DO? (I experienced the latter context when I was in the military. In that situation, the best thing you can do is maybe read a book if you have one, or meditate and/or reflect on your life). You might have nothing to do if you were say, in some dead-end minimum wage job.

But if you're working in some sort of professional setting, there's almost always something you can do. You can learn more about the organization you're in. You can build relationships with other people. You can help other people out. You can ask your manager for more work.

In the worst case, if there's really nothing you can do, and if it's bothering you, you could quit and find a better job where there are actually things to do.
Maybe that's what I need, I have residual headaches after a stroke (CVT). It seems to be a common issue and it doesn't come from the head pressure.
Yup, it works for all $ variables.

As for the "_" variables they are meant to have no side effect on the DOM directly and instead only trigger a function called $update() automatically, which is where you can deal with all the view stuff.

So the only thing you need to remember is to:

1. Declare whaterver "_" or "$" attribute you want to monitor initially on the genotype.

2. Once you have done that, every time you make a change to the underscore or $ variables, they automatically get queued up (via Nucleus) and trigger the $update() function right before the next render frame so they can be drawn all at once in a single frame.

There are different ways of doing this, you could directly touch the DOM attributes (without any prefix) or the $ variables and they will update the view from anywhere.

But personally my pattern when using Cell to write apps is to NOT directly touch the $ variables everywhere because it can be confusing, but instead keep the underscore variables as sort of a "model", and only touch those. And because updating a _ variable triggers an $update(), I can deal with all the view related stuff (changing the DOM attributes and $ attributes) in one place, inside $update(), which is the "reactive" feature. (But it's really up to you how you do it) You can learn more here https://github.com/intercellular/tutorial#2-update

Hope this helps!

Maybe people have anxiety because they are worried about having anxiety? I find it funny that drugs like LSD are illegal because it might change how your brain works, yet people take Xanax to change how their brain works. Maybe people are diagnosed with anxiety because they are given prescriptions to drugs that drug companies make more money off of? Drugs for depression may not make enough money these days since there is insufficient evidence that they really do much. Opioids are getting a bad name since they don't actually work for long term pain and are horribly addictive, and there aren't all that many new ones. So drug companies are anxious to find a new source of sales [pun intended].

Intel chips have been RISC-like internally for years. They have an instruction decode stage that converts x86 instructions into an internal ISA that's more RISC-ish.

Aside from being a terrible experience, death is also a possible side effect of benzodiazepene withdrawal.

> People on no treatment got about 30 percent better. And people who were given an open-label placebo got 60 percent improvement in the adequate relief of their irritable bowel syndrome.

There's a few differences between these groups:

- People on the placebo pill were reminded about their illness at least once a day (when they took the pill), and can be expected to have special attention for their illness.

- People on the placebo pill were seeing a doctor, and had the prospect of going back to the doctor to evaluate their progress.

- For people NOT on the placebo pill, all hope was basically lost.

So perhaps "hope" (however small) is the underlying psychological effect causing this, or perhaps it's the attention from self.
Eh, no. That's presupposing the conclusion. While the conclusion is correct and validity of IQ is one of the best replicated finding in all of psychology, by "genius" we certainly don't mean "being good at solving IQ test problems". "Being good at solving IQ test problems" happens to correlate with "being genius", but this is an empirical fact and not a logically necessary conclusion.

I'm struck by the patchwork of historical references it took to track this mans life. Given our digital footprints today, will historians have an easier time of tracking folks, or will our digital messages be in some strange lockup as digital storage evolves?

That's exactly why I take homeopathy medicine. I know that the science behind it is pseudo; but I also know that placebo effect works regardless. At least, on my particular sample size of one it definitely does.
>man, you have completely mixed up ownership power with executive/management power.

I did not. You have a view of socialism that is not at all grounded in reality. That's where you got confused.

>When everybody owns everything that is maximum possible entropy of ownership power distribution

But that isn't true in practice at all. In every socialist/marxist society collectively ownership is a meaningless idea. It is more of a theoretical concept rather than a practical one. You have no rights as a collective owner to actually influence and decide on how specific resources are managed by some institution charged with exploiting them. The reality is that some central governing body, which under Marxist regimes is usually the communist party, is the one that actually manages all institutions. Usually that body is not even accountable to any democratic action. Worse for you, all power tends to be concentrated in an individual and even the party can be completely inconsequential and used more to rubber-stamp the decrees of the leader.

So I stand by my assertion that in practice, Marxist/Socialist societies actually have a very low-entropy "entropy of ownership power distribution". The central government is the defacto owner and manager of all institutions. That's as low entropy as you're going to get.

>By contrast, in capitalist society every piece of property, except for government owned, is owned by a set of people smaller than the whole society

Sure. But the set of sets of people who own something is itself huge, in theory and in practice, so market-based economies will have a low-entropy 'ownership power distribution' regardless. Even when comparing real market-based societies to your non-existent Utopian socialist societies I'm not sure you can simply assert the latter is more decentralized than the former because in capitalist societies there are more things to own that are in fact owned by more sets of people. Under Marxism, there may be one car manufacturer, and one car model being manufactured. In market-based/capitalist societies, there may be 10 car manufacturers making 10 car models that are then owned by far greater number of people. Each manufacturer can be also be owned by thousands or millions of individuals.

Hell, you can take a thermodynamic view if it helps to illustrate the concept. Historically market-based societies have been far better at increasing universal entropy than Marxist ones.
mathematicians probably have a much higher standard for what constitutes 'genius' than do regular people. For a layperson, a genius may be someone who understands elliptic integrals, but to a mathematicians such a concept is rather ordinary.

This helped me put in context this more recent piece about another trademarked apple, the cosmic crisp. http://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2017/05/03/525421226/was...

Edit: to summarize, there are lots of different apple varieties that have been trademarked and which therefore can only be sold with that brand name by growers in the "club" which controls the brand. They do so in the hope of being able to make a sustainable profit on a differentiated product, rather than selling a commodity which tends to drive profits to zero.
But we don't have apples that taste delicious.

I eat maybe one or two good ones in a year, and l spend a lot of time finding quality food sources. Most of the fruits and vegetables sold are tasteless garbage, and the vast majority of the people around me have no idea it is as they don't have the time or interest to spend the tremendous energy necessary to acquire decent food.

And I live in the country side of southern France where it's easier than anywhere else.

People then assume they don't like fruit or greens. They don't have any problem. The problem is that the shiny red perfectly shaped plastic apple looking product they sell you is a joke. And the heart attack worthy ice cream is tasty.

People writing this kind of article don't cook, never had a grand father with a garden or use their brain so much they forgot how their tongue, nose and palate work.
> Drugs for depression may not make enough money these days since there is insufficient evidence that they really do much.

What I dislike is not being able to choose simply to make and host an AMP content myself without google taking it and hosting it on their own servers. I cannot opt-in to this, nor can I opt-out. My only choice is to not do anything with AMP.

What is the way to host your own AMP cache? The AMP project under caching just shows the google cache and links to a google page.

As a side note, what if what I publish is not acceptable by google? Will they remove my content, despite having already taken it and given it to people under that URL? If AMP content must be loaded from the caches, is my content only valid AMP if google and the jurisdictions they operate under approve?
