Calm down, this was just a fun practical experience course for students, that is being oversold by the news article:

From the original press-release:

>Hansman and Hoburg worked with MIT students to design a long-duration UAV as part of a Beaver Works capstone project — typically a two- or three-semester course that allows MIT students to design a vehicle that meets certain mission specifications, and to build and test their design.

Obviously a bunch of undergrads aren't going to design a revolutionary new airplane.
No, the point is that Google is using their dominance in search, which isn't easy to switch away from, to compete in price comparisons. Google just having a price comparison tool isn't the problem, it's when they include it as a part of search. Which is using their dominant position.

While whether you can switch might be important from a user standpoint it's not necessarily a factor from a market standpoint. It's more about how much power you have and how you use that power. It might be very easy to switch to Bing, but Google still have power over >90% of the search market.

It'll probably just break for the remainder of that month. I'm hosting that transit server on Linode, and I think (does anyone know for sure?) that their policy is to just turn off the interface if you go over your monthly allowance, which is like 4TB or 6TB on that instance.

Eventually I'm planning to have the client ask the transit server ahead of time for the size it intends to use, and the server can tell them to go away or make a donation or something.

"wormhole --transit-helper=tcp:HOST:PORT send" is how you can use a different server: the sender will tell the receiver about it in-band, so the receiver doesn't need to do anything special. The receiver accepts that argument too.

What he's saying is that it's strictly CP, as it will handle partitions (there's a section further down the paper describing how it would be handled). But as P's hardly ever ever happen, because Google, then it's pretty much CA (always consistent and available).

>this is the second AV fiasco in recent months

First of all, this bug was fixed nine months ago (see Timeline).

This is in no way a "fiasco", this is normal process of improving security of the product. Bug reported and timely fixed, bounty paid, no exploit was found in the wild, no harm done. You can count yourself number of similar bugs fixed in Chrome or Firefox this year.

>is it safe to say that running an antivirus is actually increasing your risk instead of decreasing it?

Yes, running ANY software on your computer increases attack surface, thus increasing risks. In the same time running AV decreases many other risks.

My opinion is all in all AV still does more good then harm today, provided it's actively developed by credible shop and timely updated.

> the whole point of LTS is not to keep a stable baseline, but to provide long-term support.

No, you've got it backwards. If you just wanted long-term support you'd use a rolling release distribution, of which there are any number (yes some rolling release options are "bleeding edge", but there are stable options too). The whole point of LTS releases is that they are stable baselines that are supported in the long term.
Looks great. Can you tell us how you built it? I'm most interested in automatic categorization of submitted articles.
I too stucked with paredit, it's a very beneficial sweet spot. Parinfer adds lots of sugar, sometimes very helpful (switching layout, automatic ones). I'll give it a spin but I'm not sure I'll drop paredit (maybe because of loyalty)

Oh, come off it. Yes, you carefully phrased it so that your post isn't explicitly criticism, but it's clearly implied.
The "pay for click" is how they sell their product to advertisers. But advertisers do not pay for clicks. A click is worthless. They pay because they know that their adverts are being shown to the right people and there's a guarantee there in the "pay for click" thing. In order for Google to actually get those clicks, it must show them to the right people, and it does that by targeting.

Google sells targeted advertising, not clicks. Nobody pays for clicks. I do not think advertisers are buying raw data. I think they are buying advertising which is targeted based on that raw data.

One thing I've noticed is that people in the UK are way more considerate about and sensitive to noise whereas the opposite is true to Asians.

Go to China and the level of ambient noise is much higher, whether that is people talking louder or having no qualms playing music from their phone speakers at any time of the day.

So at a guess, I think that cultural conditions probably lend themselves to people of Asian heritage learning to sleep under noisier conditions. Of course, these are all anecdata and generalisations so ymmv - fwiw, my personal observations are somewhat in line with yours.

I wouldn't worry too much about it. In my opinion a bug bounty program is another marketing tool of big companies. They have to portray an image of a company that cares about security.

From my experience if you are a small company and fix a reported bug in a timely manner, nothing bad will happen. As long as your customers see that you're reacting quickly, everything is going to be fine.

How do you find marijuana affects your coding ability?

I think I tried doing some code when in Amsterdam in a coffee house ... with this super high hope that it was going to be great. IIRC, I couldn't think at all. Zero productivity.

But that could have been a consequence of the "setting" rather than the drug. It would be cool to try out coding when high in a THC cowork space in Amsterdam specifically designed for people coding on laptops when high. That could be some hackathon!
I agree, they went too far on the whitespace / card thing. A subtle change in layout could have make the thing a little easier on the eyes while retaining enough density.
Really like the design and agree that the idea serves a purpose. Must be really discouraging to brave the Show HN and have it fall flat.

The question is why would you want to clutter your brain with all those details. If you need an information that you've read about in the past, you already have a head start and know there was something written about that and where to find it. And if you don't need those information in the future, what does it matter that you've forgotten it.

Ask HN: Finding a job in France or just the EU
I recently spent some time visiting friends in France with my family. On our return, me and my wife spent some time seriously discussing whether or not we can move out there.

So some background - I'm a polyglot developer in Financial Services with 2 young children (<5 years old). Oh and I'm British, voted against Brexit and not prepared to be a victim of the upcoming car crash for our economy. I read French and speak it conversationally but would definitely need some lessons to bring me up to business standards.

Can anyone recommend websites or other resources where I can find jobs out there? Any other tips you could give me?
Sure, but some of that is normal. Economic downturn? A few folks get permanent unemployment. Big enough place closes? Sure, a few get permanently unemployed. I don't think there is a way to stop that, nor do I really see that as an issue so long as it is a minority of folks. It definitely isn't something special to minimum wage hikes in any case.

In fact, I'd argue that even then we are better off. Say you have 20 low-paying jobs, the sort which means you are still eligible for food stamps and other tax-payer funded assistance. All 20 get laid off. 13 find full time work at the new minimum wage, so they no longer need assistence. Four find part-time work, making nearly what they did before with fewer hours. They still need assistance, but slightly less since they don't need as much child care. One makes less money. The other two are unemployed forever, requiring assistance. I'm gonna guess this is a win in the end.
Impressed by the amount of work put down in this.

I also use paredit. I haven't learned many of the advanced operations or keyboard shortcuts, it does the right thing intuitively just by using open/close paren and forward/backward/kill line/kill word etc.

EDIT: I don't mean that to sound critical of parinfer development. Developing the software on top of a formal relationship between indentation and parens sounds like a very interesting and laudable approach.

What I'd love to see is work on producing relaxed modes inheriting from paredit for use in non-lisps such as python.I use a very slightly modified paredit for python and have done every day for years. It gets it 95% right.

> In most cases, however, postal services still charge each other less than they would charge their own citizens for moving a package across the country.

Very likely, it costs them less. Own citizens don’t drop their packages at cargo hubs, already sorted and payed for by wire transfer. Pickup, sorting and processing payments have costs.
This is a global phenomenon by the way. European postal services have the same 'problem'. The way international postal agreements work mean that China's postal system is effectively being subsidised by the postal services in (at least) the US and the EU¹.

Interestingly, this volume of shipping offers chances as well for (former) national postal services. In the Netherlands the privatised former national postal service is partnering with AliBaba to deliver goods in as little as two weeks from China to your (Dutch) doorstep (currently three to four weeks is common).

Each country have its own taxes to sustain fundamentals, same thing must apply in software industry. Software engineers might be paid +100k$ while developing over open source languages/frameworks or libraries. That's is not fair, it is like riding a starving horse.

A French point of view (after all, France invented VAT...) would suggest to introduce a taxe on software engineers salaries (1% ?) and redistribute this fund on most used languages/frameworks/libraries and use a part to sustain a new projects.

Starting from a functional programming or even Prolog background may give you some useful insights. You also absolutely have to learn state machines.

The first thing to realise is that FPGAs do not have linear execution. It "begins" everywhere at once. You define a set of logic, and all of it executes concurrently. Between logic blocks are state elements (flip-flops) which capture the state at every tick of the clock. If you want to impose some sort of temporal order on things, you have to do it yourself - with a state machine or a counter. You also need to define a "reset" state.

Normally you would work with a simulator (Modelsim is the usual choice for students), which lets you run your code or a subset of it on your PC with a "testbench".

One of the frustrating things for newbies is that the same language - Verilog or VHDL - has some features that are "synthesisable" and some that only work in the simulator, and it's not at all obvious which is which!
"Hopefully" being the operative word. As such we can't refute the claim outright, at least not with the information at hand.

Actually, you can only be fined by the EU if you have a dominant position in the market you are using to promote your service. The goal is to avoid monopolies jumping from one market to the other (which is particularly easy to do in tech). "Good" monopolistic companies may benefit the customer in the short term, but proper competition benefits everyone in the long term.

I know it was just a joke, but it really doesn't apply to this case.
Providing a quiet, disruption-free and hygienic environment for employees to sleep in seems like quite the commitment to make. I'm all for it, and can just the same understand why it would not happen in most environments.
I think what we have here is a semantic disagreement over the definition of "desire". It sounds like your position might be similar to Frankfurt's? So when I say that "desires are an inferior basis for decisions", maybe that could translate as, "desires not based on value systems are an inferior basis for decisions". And when you say that desires are the only sensible basis for decisions, it doesn't mean that any desire is a correct basis for a decision (that would be absurd), so the question of whether he "genuinely wanted to" becomes a question of what his "genuine" desires are. It's nigh impossible for me to figure out what my own genuine desires are, so I can't conceive that I'd be able to figure out what my father's genuine desires are, and I wouldn't take his explanation of his own desires at face value. When we absorb cultural values we internalize extrinsic motivation, so the fact that a particular desire is intrinsic rather than extrinsic is meaningless if we are trying to figure out if it is genuine.
I agree. We should consider several criterias. The speed becomes more important for huge number of tests when execution time starts to annoy developers.
