Another issue is detecting issues and fixing them. For example, if dirt gets into my eyes while driving, I immediately know and do what is necessary to clean my eyes before continuing on my drive. On a car, what if there's a small spec of dust on a camera that blocks some part of the view. Is the car smart enough to figure out something is wrong and refuse to go?
/r/portland exists in an unending state of butthurt, but your town may be different!
Living in a dream world is what being human is about. Objective reality doesn't exist for us, and even if we could somehow perceive it, it would have no use to us. We assign value to things but that value only exists in our own minds. It's impossible to not be a slave. If not some organization, it will be to your own biology.
Randall Munroe Makes the Complicated Stuff Simple for Us (and You)
Reddit has a huge value I think which has not been mentioned - that companies, corporations, organisations use it to market and advertise themselves, for free.

Sometimes they do that under the covers, so to speak, and some users don't like it (e.g. hailcorporate) but often they will promote their products transparently, and often normal users don't mind. The most obvious example is Netflix on /r/movies. Multiple employees were observed continuously posting things to the site, via submissions, comments etc and users liked it.

By introducing a charge for these corporate users they can reap in a substantial income. Whether it would make sense for them to label these corp users as such is another option, but they certainly know about them. I find it interesting that most normal users find that they don't mind interacting with paid marketing employees and that they consider it organic and natural, very interesting. I also find it worrying.
I'm sorry, I really can't follow your line of reasoning here. Could you elucidate?

> I don't understand how governments have the authority to make private companies (journal publishers) give-away their product for free.

Nobody is telling publishers what they have to do.

The directives are aimed at publically funded institutions, instructing them how public research funds can be used.

This is about the customer's money, and I imagine also in any capitalist philosophy the government as a customer has the right to decide how its own funds can be used.
I got the same thing too. I think it's a paid ad on their website and not intention by them

Well I don't work 40 hours a week, however sadly that's how long I'm expected to be in the office.
I don't think this is true, though I think it's a common misconception. Undefined behavior is not meant to be an optimization tool. It's meant to be an anti-pessimization tool. In other words, it's meant to eliminate overhead in cases where the programmer knows it is unnecessary, but which the compiler cannot prove. Eliminating overhead is conceptually very different from actively allowing insane behavior just to increase optimization opportunities.
I am totally willing to believe that it was a setup by the CIA or some allied intelligence service.

That said, once he was stuck in the embassy, he left himself vulnerable to being manipulated by the Russians and now it seems he is acting as a Russian agent.

I think the us badly botched its handling of Wikileaks, Snowden and manning and allowed Putin to use them to his advantage.
If you are writing starting a project or writing it for yourself, this is great advice.

If you aspire to have it used by other people, it is still good advice, but only a first step. The next step is to test the documentation. Have someone run through your intro tutorial and see both:

- How hard is the tutorial to work through

- How well does it help them build a mental model of the major interfaces of the project.

If you risk $2000 to make $200 your going to get broke pretty fast, not to mention the capital required to do so...

In stock trading, the idea is to risk no more than 1% or 2% of your capital and to have a system that will win slightly more than you loose and the compounding will make you rich overtime...
A pipe is different from a pseudo-TTY. Pseudo-TTYs are how all graphical terminals work, but all shells use simple pipes on redirection and pipe-composition. TTYs and pseudo-TTYs are supposed to be interactive, with a user sitting on the other end with a keyboard. Plenty of tools make their output different based on if they're outputting to a tty or not, e.g. ls and others do not colourise by default if not outputting to a tty, as colour control characters are usually not what you want dumped to a text file or piped to grep. I feel this change brings curl more in-line with other terminal programs that try to be good citizens.

Thanks for the offer, I kept the drive I stored the TrueCrypt container on. I think it was like a bad drive arm or PCB. I'd considered paying for a service to move the platters to a good drive, but at the time the service cost more then Bitcoin worth and there was no guarantee of recovery. I ended up throwing the drive away (another dumb move). Never in my wildest dreams did I think it would increase in value like it did. I think I would have sold a lot sooner if I had access to the wallet file for the whole time.

A bit late, but my thought is that compiled to js/Dom api to me implies that it's compiled directly to document.createElement and friends.
That is not true. The most famous student leader who testified in front of the US congress 8 times was allowed to go back in China. In fact, she (Chai Lin) even started her business in China.

You seriously believe that she is less influential than a few books? If Chai Lin is allowed to enter and stay in China, what is the point stopping a few books?
Google and Facebook are structured this way. Multiple classes of stock, some with voting rights and most without. The founders own the majority of shares in the voting class and the public owns the majority of shares in the non-voting class. Larry/Sergei and Zuckerberg retain control indefinitely.
It's also fun to watch the guys hands. Little tells that he's suppressing the desire to grab the wheel (e.g. 0:44, 0:54). He seems to be fine at stops and intersections, but a bit more attentive when things get tight and curvy.

Also, what is the car doing at 1:33. It takes a right turn, then just stops in the lane, then proceeds.

A better boardroom can reverse Uber’s cultural woes
The fear is irrational because even now you can always be hit by other drivers who are not as careful as you. In my home town, certain people are driving like crazy.. Ignoring traffic lights, going to fast, call or text during driving, etcetera. With autonomous driving, these people can game, work, drink etc instead. The main benefit of AI is that it drives more predictable and follows the traffic rules. Furthermore, cars themselves have become safer. If you look to traffic fatalities per country. You can observe that modern countries have less fatalities. Because of airbags, cripple zones, safer knocking of pedestrians.. And also traffic rules. To conclude, even though sensors might fail, they are better than human sensors.

> If the chocolate was so terrible, then why is it the most popular chocolate in the UK? Why would Nestlé have bought Cadbury's?

I am not sure the first is a reasonable question considering that popularity and quality hardly ever go hand in hand, especially in a country like the UK. Additionally I assume the second question has nothing to do with the chocolate quality.
Many legacy and contemporary programs change their output behaviour based on if they're outputting to a tty or to a pipe. Off the top of my head, ls (as old as you can get) and git (new) do not colourise their output by default for pipes, but do colourise for terminals. This is just curl trying to be a good citizen on the terminal, for which there is plenty of precedent.
That is not true. It is a well know fact that the Great Fire wall does deep packet inspection since early 2000s, e.g. when google was still available in China, your connection got stopped for a few minutes every time when you search for some undesirable keywords.
Psuedo-TTY's come in pairs, one end for the application to connect to, the other for whatever is consuming the output or producing input to the application. So, yes, of course they are not pipes but they are similar in that you have two end-points. So pipes and pseudo-tty's have quite a bit in common, thinking of a pseudo-tty pair as a pipe that knows how to deal with a bunch of terminal specific ioctl calls is a pretty good approximation.

Ask HN: Stay or Leave? SoundCloud has deferred salary reviews
SoundCloud has deferred salary reviews until the next funding round is complete.

Over the last few years, travel between offices has been restricted to business critical travel only.
More expensive food items have started disappearing from our kitchen.

Employees used to get a small bottle of champagne on their birthdays & employment anniversaries.
This doesn't happen anymore.

All of the above feels reasonable.

However, they recently announced that the July 1 salary review that everyone was promised will be deferred.
There is no information about back pay or a date about when the next salary review will happen.

Salary increases are predicated on the next round of funding.
They anticipate that the round will close over the next couple of months, if not weeks.

I'm sure that everyone here will have been in similar situations before.

What did you do? And, how did you decide whether to continue working or start looking for other opportunities.

Also, what other arrangements, we, as employees should consider putting forward.

Example: I'd be okay working 4 days weeks, until the salary review is complete.

What questions should we ask our founders that'll help us build confidence that the company's financials are in a reasonable shape?
> But the scientists are the ones that are (still) sending their results to private journals for publications

Most importantly, from the parent comment, senior scientists are the ones that are still volunteering their reviewing efforts to private, closed-access journals, for free. Given that the career penalty for doing less reviews is very small (it might even be negative), to me this is even more puzzling.
Online communities die within months. Reddit isn't worth anything. This is insane - this community can disappear. Look at Digg, myspace, friendster. One wrong TOS update all the users will rebel and look towards the next cheaply made forum.

That's certainly what the CIA want us to believe.
There is a strong parallel. As most coins do provide actual value and ownership of the platform. For example, while the gnosis coin is overhyped, the idea is that because of fees on the platform.. Eventually you will earn some money back. But as said before, the mania has to stop.
search for "god use vpn". not trolling, that is the actual name of the service I am using. they charge for 100 RMB per year, that is $15/year, you get access to ~20-30 of their geographically distributed servers and all of them can help you to bypass vpn.
> "Open Access" would definitely mean more access to articles but at what costs?

This is only for what private publishers like Elsevier call "open access". Reputable publishers like LIPIcs (in computer science) charge 60 EUR per article. Besides, they charge this for all articles (i.e., there is no option to publish closed-access), so they do not sell subscriptions, hence there is no double payment.
>he repeatedly refused to meet Swedish investigators at the embassy

It was them who repeatedly refused to meet him. He offered to meet them repeatedly.
Thats very true and very important to be reminded of. You'd want to inquire about the specific structures to support that.
Shouldn't this come from the political level (as it does in OP)? I mean we finance this work with taxes, why not just make it a (grant) requirement that all results need to be made publicly available? (And everyone would be uploading shit to the internet so fast it would make all our heads spin...)
Reddit has a lot of distinctly separate sub communities that grow, start new, and die out individually, and some which even hate others. So I think that helps to protect from "community death" effect. For the other websites you mentioned, they all feel like "one community" each.
I think the sensors are always on, in all cars. Just to gather data.
I think that you're missing the point. Your comment implies that you think colonization efforts are solely to solve resource problems on Earth.

The most important point of colonization is that it ensures no single event can wipe out humanity. Rather than encouraging lowering the population of Earth, we want it to increase. The larger Earth's population, the more people who will volunteer to join colonies. We need to spread humanity as far and wide.

As for the attainability of colonization, I expect that it is a matter of time. As is often brought up, it was once thought that flight was unachievable; and now we send out thousands of flights every day.

For now, attempting to harvest near-Earth resources seems to be the best approach to colonization. It requires many of the same advances while providing a strong short-term incentive.

The framing of this article is strange. It presents encountered emotions arrived at through meditation in a clinical setting, as if people may not expect underlying anxiety about their lives to emerge.

If anything, this speaks to the human propensity (both good and bad) to endure despite the stacking existential odds of the modern social order.

In other words, life is tough, it has always been tough, and there are many unpleasant aspects of all of our lives, even when one's life is seemingly chugging along just fine. Counter to the argument of the article, many who meditate are keenly aware of this full emotional spectrum -- it's the people who are jumping on the bandwagon that are surprised that mindfulness isn't all Lululemon peace and love, or something that will enhance your focus in pursuit of your next capitalist adventure.
I.e. submissions not from YouTube, Imgur, nytimes, etc. submissions from actual people with a point of view, where you can subscribe if you want to learn more.

> you have formatting editors who make the PDF look good and give it a thorough last read (finding for me several errors that peer review never found - missing or switched references, for example).

This may depend on the field, but in CS I have never seen this. There is essentially no change made by the publisher to papers, and when they do make changes, more often than not it is to introduce errors.

In any case, the huge profit margins of publishers indicate that the cost of this dubious service is much lower than the charge.

But the most important point is this: doing minor copyediting shouldn't be grounds to own the journal and own copyright on the published articles. The journals should be owned by scientists, or by a nonprofit scientific society. Even assuming that research needs to pay for copyediting services, these should be contractors of the nonprofit (with competition among them), not owners of the journal and articles.
really - myspace was one community? Forums don't have 'topics'? wtf. This is insane. This is nuts. Reddit wont be around in 4 years. It will be a total joke like all the other online communities.
So, this looks like it lets you write HTML using JSON instead of XML. You write out the DOM layout, specify attributes for the nodes as needed, and you can add JavaScript when necessary.

Aside from the JSON and a bit of syntactic sugar, it seems really similar to writing plain HTML - which itself was designed to be a high-level markup language for quickly specifying page layouts.

What am I missing? What's the benefit over HTML? I mean, if you want a non-framework why not just, you know, not use a framework?
I was heavily involved in solar car racing during college, so much so that my grades suffered because of it. But for the most part that didn't matter. Most recruiters I spoke to ended up being much more interested in the stories I could tell about all the challenges we had as a team and the novel solutions we invented to overcome them. I knew that if I talked to a recruiter and they only focused on my GPA, then that was a good sign I didn't want to work there. After my first job, GPA became irrelevant. If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't change a thing. Fifteen years later, I still count my teammates as some of my best friends.
> using it for new apps is a great idea

The Swift 2->3 migration was a huge time sink and is still on people's minds. Xcode 9 is also still slow and crashy when working with Swift. For small apps with a tiny maintenance budget, ObjC makes a lot of sense even now. I expect it'll die even more slowly than Carbon did.
Could their users disappear? Of course. But this could arguably be said about any company.

Reddit has over 250 million users. Very very few social apps have that many users.

According to https://www.dreamgrow.com/top-15-most-popular-social-network... only Facebook, YouTube/Google+, Instagram, and Twitter have that many users.

Reddit has also been around for a long time (in internet time) - since 2005. And it's survived many PR fires too.
I agree this is great, but the fun part is that the dynamic language advocates first claims dynamic languages is the shit, then they build the tools to mimic staticly typed languages ;)

I don't think many are talking about undoing copyright protection for past papers (it's not impossible, but harder to achieve and likely fraught with legal issues), so I think you are arguing against a strawman there.

For the future, submitting to OA(-friendly)-publications can be demanded or be part of the conditions for public funding.
Newton's Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica
Sure, a fox is not the size of a wolf because both are useful sizes to be. If you follow the evolution of foxes getting slightly larger or slightly smaller both provide advantages so it's really a balance which may change over time that determines what happens.

AKA, fox sizes might drift up and down some over time, the average is going to stay near their current size unless say wolves died out. At which point they may quickly get larger and replace wolves, but they would not keep growing indefinitely and end up the size of great whales as they are now constrained by the 'wolf' niche. Further, foxes may end up spiting, you have foxes that look about the same, and foxes that look a lot like wolves.

Now if you chart sizes as say 10,11,12,11,10,9 then the transition between those stages is a 'fast' + or - 1, but the net result is only -1 over 6 steps or -1/6th.

The same thing is likely going on with less obvious features, but they are less intuitive.

Except we already see negative population growth in all countries with a reasonable standard of living. The USA (and many European countries) would not be growing were it not for immigration. Places with high birth rates are often correlated with a stressful environment like war and extreme poverty. (When you can't be certain how much time you have left to live or how many of your children will survive, it makes sense to have any many children as soon as possible.) Also, the efforts against access to birth control by organizations like the Catholic Church or Texas's "abstinence only education" can unnaturally increase birth rates.

Reducing population growth is the struggle to reduce poverty, war, and oppression against women. We also would need to confront powerful organizations with anti-birth control agendas.
Then you just use Sci-Hub, like you do when working from home.
The thing (at least for me) is that it feels hypocritical to refuse to review after having benefitted from many other people's reviews when submitting to those same journals.

It did seem a bit low to me too considering how much other social networking apps are getting valued at.

Reddit has been around for over 11 years. It's something to say about the loyalty of their community.

Their ability to target advertisements towards specific subreddits could become a large source of revenue. Especially since advertisers can easily target those with those interests.

I think it's different than facebook groups because subreddits are at the heart of the reddit ecosystem.
