If the market is confused about the term and it's not clear in practice - it's still not a good term to use.

I definitely think it's worse than cruise control as you suggest. Cruise control systems control your cruising speed. Autopilot has way too many asterisks right now.
To be fair a vehicle coming across you at a crossroads is hard to judge the speed of, hard to see in time and hard to decide what to do. If you break will it slam in to the side of you; do you need to floor it, maintain speed? What if you're in amongst traffic and can't see the vehicle (visually or via tech assist)?

Is there other info you're using to come to your conclusions here, the article doesn't seem particularly informative about the crash (location, circumstances, etc.).

Genetic mutations. As you get older, you accumulate more genetic damage, which can be passed on to children. It's fairly well-studied that children of older parents are more susceptible to genetic disorders.

> “In 2014 we had 387 enclosures stolen,” he says. “In 2015 we had 57 enclosures stolen, 50 of which were stolen on the night of announce, which was so painful.” In 2016, Rice says the company produced 65 million housings, and only four were stolen. “So it's about a one in 16 million loss ratio, which is unheard of in the industry.”

The number of times per week I need to find a link that's gone dead—even occasionally for fairly recent articles—demonstrates the practical need for preserving web content, even just for pure contextual reasons. There's an enormous amount of useful content archived: information, original documentation, downloads, culture. I have a lot of respect for internet archivists.

America can't solve the hunger problem because a significant and politically powerful segment of America is ideologically devoted to capitalism, and hunger (more generally, the threat of being unable to meet basic life necessities) is the whip at labor's back on which capitalism depends.

Hunger is not a problem for capitalists, it's a solution.

(The article seems more about the network of interests that have grown up to profit off the determination of America to not solve hunger while paying lip service to the ideal of doing so, but that's not the root of the failure tomsolve hunger.)

Yep, thanks for that pointer, I'm pretty much doing that, except on Debian Linux. I was surprised there wasn't a Minecraft server or client out there that let me control through an administrative layer a toggle switch to let players interact exclusively through the Python interface, or also let the keyboard and mouse drive input, or exclusively the keyboard and mouse ("classic mode", so to speak).

I'm also surprised that no Young Lady's Primer-style worlds of interlocking puzzles haven't been constructed, or even started, that I could locate through searching. There are highly episodic one-shots, or relatively brief arcs, but I haven't seen any really involved worlds accreting complex storylines, continuity, and character development as the children work out puzzles teaching and reinforcing concepts and skills with them. Once children get engaged into a story, at least my son and his peers get extremely motivated to solve the puzzles and they fatigue on failure far later, like an order of magnitude or longer.

The size of the state space in which the qubits live is exponential in the number of qubits. This is because the qubits live in an n-fold tensor product of two-dimensional Hilbert spaces. Performing an operation on a single qubit is the same as performing a 2^n-dimensional unitary transformation on the state of the system.

This is not disagreed by experts in the field of quantum computing, including Scott.

In a way, it also was created by people who contributed to developing Internet and is NSF founded. The head behind it is Van Jacobson[1] who was responsible for implementing congestion control in TCP/IP also creator of popular tools such as traceroute.

Unlike FreeNet it was designated that while it can work as an overlay network it is actually capable to run without TCP/IP so it could even replace it.

Also unlike FreeNet it's not trying to obscure who is hosting the content. Basically you get a prefix (which looks like unix file path) which you start advertising to neighboring routers (like IP is advertised in TCP/IP) so then all requests under it (as long as no cached version is available anywhere) will be forwarded to you.

In the same way, "Turing complete" might not mean "capable of doing any possible computation". It could be that there are some computations that can be performed but not by a Turing machine. This is uncertain enough that we call it the Church-Turing Thesis. But it's hard to describe the notion of "every possible computation", so instead we compare things relative to Turning machines.

We could do the same thing with languages. Say a language is "English complete" if it can express at least everything expressible in English. I suspect all commonly used modern languages are English complete. The most obvious way I can see that a language would fail to be complete would be if it lacked nonce words or any equivalent device.

"but we can only emit a few bits of information" [per second?]

I don't think that's true. Physical motion and even sound making in total involves a human being producing a lot more than a few bits of information per second - there are plenty of recordings of people singing, say, that can't compressed to that bitrate.

The only thing that's true is that we can pretty much only emit and absorb language information at a fairly low bitrate.

The simple explanation for this is that a language stream is something like a computer program - difficult to either produce or absorb.

And of course, language with complex structures is fairly unique to humans and provides some amazing things - the ability to help organize society and our own activity on a larger scale, to plan ahead, and etc, and etc, etc....

Edit: Good general discussion of these issues can be found in Tor Norretranders' book The User Illusion. Highly recommended.
Ask HN: Why is it so difficult to install a web app or service on a server?
There is only one language that makes it (relatively) simple: PHP.

Imagine you create a server-side web app. You want your users or customers to install the app themselves. You want to give them the widest choice of installation options possible including shared hosting, VPS or on installation on their own server.

The shared hosting option is probably the easiest for most users. In the case of PHP, it can be as simple as uploading files to the folder on the server. And that's it. (Even that might be too complicated for some users.)

But why is it so much more complicated with other languages? Even web-friendly languages like Python and Ruby rarely let you simply upload files to a folder and be done with it.

The topic of decentralisation sometimes pops up on Hacker news. You could argue that shared hosting is a form or decentralisation. It may not be the 'pure' solution for decentralisation, but it is a practical and realistic option for people to self-install software.

Wordpress is an example of a profitable open source app that can easily be installed on countless shared hosting platforms. It's easy to switch hosting providers when you want to (and to take your data with you). Is it the ultimate example of a decentralised app?

Having a ridiculously easy web app installation process for servers would unlock countless opportunities for developers to reach more users or customers.

If you're a server-side web developer, is this something you think about? Is it a source of frustration in the language you work with? What can be done to make server-side installation easy?

I find it kind of crazy that in 2017, server app installation remains needlessly complicated for so many languages.
For me it's quite the opposite. I like browsing the web in the evening on a 5 year old tablet. Ever since imgur started redirecting mobile clients to the full site for all direct image links the experience gets worse and worse. They keep adding more scripts and shit over time so currently when opening an imgur link the tablet freezes for about 4 seconds until it starts showing the loading spinner and then it takes another couple seconds depending on image size until I can finally see a plain old jpeg. Every fucking time.
I mean I don't understand the decision to redirect mobile but not desktop at all. Desktops are faster (cpu and connection) and got more screen space to show ads. Why not the other way round?
I agree that is an issue with those services, but that was sort of my point. Some websites are starting to catch on that people are doing this so they are starting to block + addressing the same way they block mailinator.

Somewhere in this issue of websites blocking + addresses there is a some irony as + addressing is a more recent email standard and so some people have legitimate email addresses with + symbols in them; in fact last I knew Microsoft Exchange still wasn't supporting + addressing due to the need to support legacy users.

I'm curious, what is the current best practise for shipping LAN-only type embedded devices that needs to be configurable from a browser now that everyone is pushing for https only and marking http not safe?

Some may not even have a local DNS name but only use an RFC 1918 ip address. I don't think the current CA system can accomodate that? Obviously you don't want to hand anyone who asks for it a cert and a private key for "10.0.0.1".
> This assumes that investors are efficient at allocating capital

Yes, in aggregate, it does. Phrased another way, it assumes that the market is more efficient when different investments are unbundled and can be selected independently than when they are bundled.

AMD Winds Up One-Two Compute Punch for Servers
I guess 6 years of Moor's law made it "productionizable"?
It is true that I am not being mathematically precise in my statements. The precise way to say what I said is: In order to represent completely an arbitrary state in the space of one billion qubits, you will need a number of bytes exponential in that number of qubits. If we have, as mathematical entities, one billion additional qubits, this will be equivalent to increasing the dimension of our existing system by 2^(1 billion) times.

Of course, I am saying "mathematical entities", and almost all practitioners of quantum computing are aware of the challenge to actually build them.

Also, in the past people have made some horrible choices regarding what's valuable and what's not. For all sorts of reasons, from political to psychological to social, they've done things like burn, discard, or destroy texts and artwork we now consider valuable but they did not.

It seems that the main story is just how much of a force-multiplier ever-increasing resources poured into aircraft development are on the battlefield. But I think the main point missed is the classic cold-war dynamics. None of the countries wealthy enough to produce and operate top-level military aircraft are willing to even appear to fight each other, because they all have lots of nuclear weapons as well. That leaves third-world countries operating leftovers and castoffs. Interesting still that they are less and less willing to even try to engage first-world air forces.

From the NTSB Report (https://dms.ntsb.gov/public/59500-59999/59989/604694.pdf):

>In concluding the interview, the witness offered the opinion that both drivers had sufficient time to have seen the other vehicle and should have been able to slow or stop sufficiently to have avoided the crash.

The full witness statement is on page 19. It sounds like the truck was making a left turn across the Tesla's path and according to the witness they both had enough time to see the other car - the truck was moving slowly and the Tesla took around three seconds to reach the intersection from the time when the witness first saw it.

Its certainly more traceable from the perspective of metadata aggregation. If you were looking at the users from multiple sites, you could easily consider "*@bumblebutt.example" to be one person thus linking all accounts together.

As an advertiser, if I see a site with placements that are only available via direct buys, and the advertisers cycle through there quickly without staying around for a while, that's often a sign of a poor performing placement that they tested and moved on from.

I'm not clear on the specifics of their inventory, but some of their placements are available on the Google Display Network, and presumably exchanges as well. So I'm not sure if the inventory with the $20k min. buy overlaps at all with that to reach this sort of conclusion.
