That's not really true at all. Many companies, especially medium sized businesses are starved for capital as banks are consolidated and are largely out of many types of lending.

I had a friend who ran a successful manufacturing company who was forced to shut down production... not because of competition or cost but because of the inability to get working capital. As the regional banks in our region got swallowed up, the local bankers who understood cyclical businesses went away.
Subjective perception is "hard" because everything we know about physics works exactly the same without it, so at this point we have literally no idea where it fits.

But this is kind of a predestined result because the way we approach most science is to filter out subjective phenomena as much as possible and examine only so-called objective phenomena.

That's pretty much the point. There are a handful of indie games that made their creators a lot of money. You can probably name most of them. But they are no longer representative outcomes from making an indie game.
what's the use case you are worried about? Tell me a story. Who is accessing your date, for which purpose, when, how much, etc... and explain how Gmail is a bad solution because Google "can read it".

Yes, Google does not offer you protection against the Government. That is a true statement. But that doesn't mean that it's all or none. There are so many privacy rights before "a warrant request". And news flash, unless you are extremely good at securing your own mail server, even then you are not protected against a warrant.

Those checks are not bullshit. Every single security system "can be bypassed".

It's not always lack of experience: there's a mantra among some DJs that if you "aren't redlining you aren't headlining". I'm not a proponent of it, but I've heard the expression used more than a few times in the past couple years.

One of the most respected DJs in the Chicago footwork/juke scene always clips, at all times. It's apparently a thing.
I remember the Hitachi HD64180 and Zilog Z180 had a paged based MMU. 512k of memory.

And a lot of embedded 8051 designs used one of the 8 bit ports to extend the address space from 16 to 24 bits. I think both common C compilers for the 8051 supported that memory model.

Also if I remember the 68000 correctly indirect addressing was 16 bit register + 32bit constant. Definitely not a 'pure' memory model. Though the 808x was far more ugly.
That's unfortunate and doesn't fit my understanding of the situation - is disassembling a binary not fair game, in the same way that Samsung buying an iPhone and cracking it open is? (Assuming we're worried about copyright and not patents).
I got confused too.

We can't stop people from naming their projects/products the way they want. However, I think headlines in HN should be editoralized a bit to provide context, followed by the actual headline from the webpage.
Except now you launch the game halfway through its development.

This results in a lot of bad deals for consumers, but it's true that the fact that people will buy games in an unfinished state makes a lot more games possible, and makes taking risks with games possible.

I think you meant "algebraic effect", which most mainstream languages don't have: http://kcsrk.info/ocaml/multicore/2015/05/20/effects-multico...

Algebraic data types are a basic feature.
Yes. Not sure if you are agreeing or disagreeing with me since the claim was that it didn't work.
It's all begging the question that there's something special about some of those states, because we feel that they're special. That there's a 'subjective experience' attached which is more than just the information flow through the self-monitoring feedback loop that is our brain.

Startup idea!
Oh, it certainly accesses memory every cycle. But the effective "efficiency" of the memory access instructions is much lower -- if you were writing something like a memcpy(), for instance, they wouldn't be contributing to its transfer speed.
The classic motives for spying go by the acronym MICE - Money, Ideology, Compromise, and Ego.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motives_for_spying

Money - honestly, the spy agencies never really paid all that well. John Walker got a couple thousand a month from the KGB. If you're spying for cash, frankly you'd be better off getting a second job.

Ideology - This is probably where younger people who didn't grow up in the Cold War era are vulnerable. "But they're our friends now, right?" Nation-states have interests, not friends.

Compromise - Make sure you're not in a position to get blackmailed. If you do get blackmailed, work with the security people.

Ego - Maybe a period of introspection could help?
My guess is that we're turning everything into little services and few people understand the big picture.

By squeezing pennies out of lots of things, we miss the dollars that could make positive change.

Look at corporate IT as The gold standard of fail. We design complex systems to allow them to be sourced out (is ITIL/ITSM), and then are surprised when we have built a monstrosity that doesn't really work.

You see this type of thinking everywhere. I had an ancient popcorn popper called the "Whirly Pop" that I got in the 90s, which was basically an aluminum pan with a wood handle and metal gear for swirling popcorn on the stove. It recently broke and I bought a replacement -- a product inferior in every way with a plastic handle that will burn your hand, a plastic gear that will melt, and a metal pan and cover so thin that bent it while cleaning with a sponge.

Oh yes. Thank you for the correction. The fancy name has kept me away so far... fearing it's yet another monad thing which I have not seen explained in a way that not only makes sense to a 5 year old but far more importantly show clearly and indelibly why it's so important to begin with. Same for any 'math theory' derived concepts. I hope ReasonML won't fall in that 'too smart for the average guy' category.

the question I had asked that brought up 'algebraic effects' was: does ReasonML have optimized generator implementation which is an essential high level concurrency primitive. I was told generators and other concurrency primitives can be built on top of algebraic effects.
(My memory is fuzzy)

I think around 1979-1980 that an Apple II with 16k was like $800. One with 48k was $1900. And they weren't passing any markup on the memory. Much different than today where the cost of DRAM is much smaller fraction of the cost.

I agree! Most conversations that somehow talk about GCS being more expensive usually are "oh actually, AWS just charges less for egress" (which isn't a non sequitur but is effectively orthogonal). Again, I'd respond directly if the site weren't hugged to death :).

I loved 8086 assembly after coming from Z80. And one of the reasons it was so fast was because of minimal registers.

> Non-exhaust emissions already account for over 90% of PM10 and 85% of PM2.5 emissions from traffic.
I think there's two questions here:

1) How to start a side business?

Make something people want, charge money for it, and figure out how to market it. Not necessarily in that order.

2) Where to start with front-end tech?

Use as little of it as possible. Plain old HTML, and forms that submit to a server are all you really need. No fancy JavaScript. CSS is nice, and probably a bit more important but also not strictly required.

I say this as someone who makes a living writing JS/Node and charges well over $50/hr. After your project is bringing in money, then you can look into learning front-end fancyness. Or just hire me ;)
Yeah, because he had patrons, including Pope Julius II.
I work on Reason, so I think I'm relatively unbiased enough to address this. JavaScript's widely popular, disregarding why it's come to be this way. Any language this popular (and with a history of being used in a different context, nonetheless) ends up having warts and being used by folks who are sometimes less skilled.

In that regard, "jumping on the types bandwagon like it's some new discovery" is exactly right, because it's indeed lots of people's first language. But I don't see why this should sound so negative. Newcomers are now introduced to types and they're amazed by them. That's welcomed and we shouldn't feel they're taking away our own shiny toy and tainting them or whatever.

I think it pays to be nice to beginners. Sure, you don't get the usual quality you're looking for in a niche expert language where communications are atomic, on-point, and lossless, but that's _OK_. All in all, things like a better type system, better language semantics and better paradigms are still worth fighting for.
I've known more than one 1st-gen child who was a narcissistic brat, blaming their parents for not fitting in (and thus all other social failures as well), while being willfully ignorant of the sacrifices involved in simply getting them here in the first place, and scornful of the opportunities available.

The author of this piece wrote nothing that convinced me she was any different.

I may be completely wrong. But I do not think I am. I didn't live in the US until I was a teen, and I've seen this song and dance before.
I don't think that's it. The real problem is that no science (whether physics, chemistry, biology, or even psychology -- if you deign to call the latter a science) describe what it's like to experience anything. Certainly there are measurements (like the wavelength of light), or even observations (ex: that a certain light was in the red spectrum), but the actual subjective experience of any phenomena seems to be completely out of reach. No one and no scientific theory can tell you what any experience is going to be like for you. For instance, no scientific theory can tell you what seeing the color red is like.

This actually goes far beyond the lack of a way for science to grapple with subjective experience, and goes to the root of communicating that experience or even communicating about that experience. It's hard, if not impossible, to communicate what any subjective experience is like. Poets, musicians, or artists might arguably be able to get at it, through some indirect means. But until telepathy comes along, there's really no way to know if what one person describes as their experience really is that way or can even be properly understood by their audience.

The ideal that many scientists aim for creates an additional burden of trying to be "objective" and of distrusting reporting on individual's own subjective experiences. Nevertheless, at least in psychology, neurology, and cognitive science, self-reporting on personal experiences is still quite common and is at least tacitly accepted. Researchers may ask, for instance, if the subject feels pain, or about their emotional state, and so forth. That is not completely out of bounds. I'm not aware of so-called "hard sciences" being very interested in what personal experience is like, or in attempting to bring them under their theoretical rubric.
It takes a few hundred ETH to have worthwhile leverage.. so they probably risked losing a substantial amount of trade volume and liquidity with the fiasco aside from loyal customers and early adopters. It wasn't just the natural market forces. They directly manipulated the market by stopping trading, and indirectly during and after the event with a variety of system issues that are not comforting.

IMO this move to replenish traders was a mature business decision that many tech companies would have failed at let alone crypto companies. There is massive money in the long game for Coinbase/GDAX, and providing real and imaginary assurance could cement them to become the Visa of the next decades.

I've coded in both (Common Lisp and Haskell, as two examples) and enjoyed both. Static languages tend to force you to think carefully about what you're doing before you test your code; dynamic languages let you get away with being careless. Dynamism is fine for prototyping but terrible in large software projects if you have mediocre programmers. That said, I've had mostly good experiences with dynamic languages -- probably because I've worked with mostly excellent software engineers who didn't need the language to force them to be thoughtful.
It's a way to avoid taking on the personal risk related to giving an outright rejection.

Yes, and even if the person being rejected poses no risk it's nice to spare their feelings with what amounts to a little white lie. It helps everybody save face and ideally allows the conversation to move on to other things.
That's one possible interpretation, but it becomes an improbable one once one considers the extraordinary narcissism, entitlement, gynocentrism, and elitism which prevails in the social stratum which she now occupies. Affected self-awareness is merely a dissimulation tactic.
I think this is a pretty important point. The default option for declining a proposition shouldn't have to be "I already have a partner". A simple 'no, thankyou' should suffice.

Analytic philosophers love to talk of qualia, but Continentals (Phenomenologists in particular) were on to the idea of the "lifeworld" well before (late 19th century) the Analytics came up with qualia (1929). I'd love to see the two concepts compared and contrasted.

If anyone knows of such a comparison, I'd love to read about it.
> Does the average user really care about fonts? I would say definitely not. Most people don't even notice the font.

most people don't think consciously about the font, but that doesn't mean they don't notice or that their experience will be the same reading in one font vs another. some companies spend a lot of money on this. facebook and google, for example, do a/b testing on fonts to see which perform best in ads.

but users also care when a font becomes illegible on the wrong size display, and/or wrong pixel density. the less pixel dense a display is, for example, the bolder a font needs to be. this new tech makes it super easy for developers to actually execute these best practices, eliminates multiple steps from the asset pipeline, reduces network requests, and reduces file size. check out the google fonts analytics page[1] for an idea of how many trillions of fonts served that this will affect.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't regulatory burden a significant reason for nuclear being so expensive?

As of May 2017, the People's Republic of China has 37 nuclear reactors operating with a capacity of 32.4 GW and 20 under construction with a capacity of 20.5 GW.[1]

Compare:

As of 2016, there are four new reactors under construction with a gross electrical capacity of 5,000 MW, while 33 reactors have been permanently shut down.

I'm lead to believe the reason China can have 5 times the number of new nuclear builds is because China seems to be able to get shit done while infrastructure in the US languishes. I could be wrong, I'm just going by what internet would have me believe.

Definitely agree with you there. I added the extra "made clear they had a significant other" since it would help to push the line even further into unacceptable territory.

The fact that women have learned to use the existence of an SO as an escape rather than outright saying no reflects poorly on the men that caused the learned behavior.

Well, you might be right, but it's probably important if you're creating music. If that's your job, it's a lot more damn important that you get it right than feeling X or Y exact sensation with or without a condom.

Also, I take issue with "putting hundreds of young people in a room guaranteed to give you hearing loss". I've never been much of one for live music, I'm certainly no roadie, but I've been to plenty of raves and concerts in my time. I've been known to run extremely loud sound systems in my cars, crank headphones to the max (shy of distortion, of course), stand against speakers at performances, and generally treat my hearing like total shit. And yet, in my mid-30s, I have no symptoms of hearing loss, or any tinnitus. In fact, at least in certain scenarios, I have phenomenal hearing. I can hear (or detect?) when my wife's car drives up outside the front of the house from the back room. I can hear the footsteps of my cat down the hall in the middle of the night. I routinely get comments like "how did you hear that??"
I'm not saying it won't happen to me, but I'm saying there's a remarkable variance in how and when these symptoms strike different people.
