Ask HN: How do you keep track of conferences?
Particularly session video releases? There are usually at least one or two sessions at any given conference I'm interested in, but even filtering for quality + relevance I'm up to about 20 different conferences now.

(For the curious, for me this is WWDC, I/O, BUILD, re:invent, multiple O'Reilly & Usenix conferences, QCon, DevOpsDays, @Scale, Edge, Monitorama, Rootconf, STAR, STPcon, CAST, ISSTA, TestBash, ASTQB Summit, and AgileTestDays.)
For what it's worth, my links list has a very large section of articles on Redux architecture and best practices: https://github.com/markerikson/react-redux-links/blob/master... . Mapbox's post on "Redux for state management in large web apps" is particularly good: https://www.mapbox.com/blog/redux-for-state-management-in-la... .

Religions and denominations of the same religion won't even agree on the nature or existence of free will. Why everyone else is so concerned about the same, I don't understand. It's more philosophy than science in most discussions. If acting as if your actions had internal agency offers better chances of survival, that's a good enough fudge for nature.
Some concerts are much more enjoyable with ear plugs -- because it's not overwhelming your ears you can actually hear it better than you can without ear plugs.

Call it sentimentality, but I don't feel like watching TNG is that difficult nowadays. It's old and missing some of the tech we have today, but if you can suspend your disbelief on that, it stands pretty well.

(To those who haven't watched TNG, the whole series is on Netflix, mostly (entirely?) in the remastered edition, so no TV-like quality. A piece of caution: this is not your typical sci-fi; it's much more positive about the future, science and technology than what we get served on TV these days.)

RE the yardstick thing - there's still lots of things that in Star Trek are shown as easy, and that they feel like they should be easy with sufficiently advanced tech, and that are still hard for us today. So it's maybe less of an yardstick and more of a goal / reminder that there's lots to be done yet.
I disagree with this, and would be very cautious of doing something like this in a business setting.

No matter how nicely you put it, you're going to come across as "I know more than you, I noticed this and you didnt, I can help and you cant". Especially stepping in and offering to coach, without being asked, in a department that isn't yours... I wouldn't like it if I were the other manager, I wouldnt like to see it if I was senior management.

If your environment allows for and encourages a more open structure, where you're confident you're not overstepping your bounds, yes this would be the tact to take. Considering you have to ask HN if this would be overstepping your bounds, just don't. Just stick to your stuff.
Yup. It speaks to just how terrible Verizon and AT&T are that T-Mobile has all these fuckups and they're still far-and-away the best choice.

Does "verbal approval" mean... anything, in the context of local construction regulation?

Best of luck to Musk, but there must be a misunderstanding going on here, or he is being somewhat misleading in use of the term "approval".
I generally find that you can't effect change if you only deal with problems reactively as they come up. I find that people are more receptive to feedback if open dialogue is part of the culture of the team.

One way to start cultivating this type of culture is with post mortems. It usually involves reiterating every 30 seconds that it is not a finger-pointing exercise, but a session to identify future goals for improvements, in order to maintain the positive tone throughout the session.

Regular planning meetings are another place where it's possible to market the practice of open dialogue. Since these are already focused on upcoming objectives, it's easier to bring up concerns and discuss it as a team. It's also a great opportunity for quieter team member to voice support for something you believe in, which helps an idea gain more traction. Likewise, it helps you stay humble when people disagree with you and bring up arguments that you had not thought about before.

Another place where dialogue can be cultivated is through documentation. I don't mean a passive-aggressive README in the repo that nobody is going to read. I mean through active discussions in tasks-related tickets. There's something about writing things down that helps make vaguer ideas more concrete and actionable.

Semi-related to the previous point is code reviews. The idea here is, again, not to confront or alienate a co-worker, but to give actionable feedback in small enough chunks that someone would feel motivated to do, out of a sense of perfectionism or whatever. Code review also let you familiarize yourself with things that are coming. The challenge with code reviews is that they are difficult to start if they team isn't already on board with it. You can start by pushing commits to code owned by someone else and then nagging them to review it. The idea is to gradually push for a workflow where landing changes (at least large ones) should require someone else's approval. But again, this newfound "power" should not be used for rejecting work, but to foster early communication.

As you grow communication channels, you can also use them to convince others that you should be the one to do the work that you care about.

The biggest trap you should avoid is falling into the "they are stupid" mentality. If things become adversarial, it becomes very very very hard to persuade people. Also, be humble and be realistic. Sometimes decisions that you don't agree with have reasons that have not been brought up to you and that you had not thought about. And sometimes, things will indeed just turn out to be bad even with your best efforts and hopefully those times will be a learning experience for someone. At those points, focus on what can be done, and start the dialogue again.
Dreaming of prime numbers in short intervals
I think you've misread my comment as what you're saying is incorrect. When a qubit is in the state (|0> + |1>)/sqrt(2) it does have equal probabilities of being measured as either |0> or |1>. I think what you're trying to say is that (|0> + |1>)/sqrt(2) is not the only superposition state a qubit can be in. A qubit can be in any arbitrary position of the two possible states.

Except in the case of opioids, government and regular ARE the problem. If they were legal and available through a regulated supply, most of the OD's would never happen. They happen because someone gets a dose of the drug that's 10-100 times stronger than the one they had yesterday.

That's no different than people going blind/dying from wood alcohol during prohibition.

The solution is to legalize and regulate, but I'm not holding my breath.

YMMV. I went on a low/no carb diet for 3-4 weeks last year, never had terrible cravings or crashes, and still love me some carbs. I just love bread, pasta, pizza, etc. (e.g., food in general) too much, but it's a good way to monitor what you eat.
> These txids are immaterial to how the Bitcoin blockchain works: their primary use is as a convenience for humans when referring to transactions.

This is incorrect. Each Bitcoin transaction input references a previous transaction output as the txid+output index. Transactions spending unconfirmed outputs are orphaned when the parent is malleated and confirmed.

Also, as a data hash with no checksum, txids are not convenient for humans at all.

> Transaction malleability is already more or less fixed in Bitcoin

A couple months ago, there was a significant malleability attack on the Testnet, in which nearly every transaction was malleated as it was included in a block.

First, I am not at all contradicting this. :) I just want to get that out of the way.

I have found it pedagogical to read some more difficult programs, without trying to find ways to make them necessarily "read" better. In particular, generic and/or high performance versions of algorithms.

To your point, this is precisely why I will refuse to generalize some parts of my code on the first pass. First, solve my problem specifically, then try and generalize. (This is not a waterfall style approach, but I do try and keep it somewhat phased.)
Sure. But in practice everyone is just going to make extensions that are compatible with "all" the browsers, and there are developers who have simply decided not to rewrite their firefox extensions.

Anybody with a better understanding of filecoin - can you explain how the protocol can tell the difference between a legitimate hardware failure and a storage miner who stores the uploaded file, signs proof of replication to the blockchain, then immediately deletes the file so that he can "store" more files, collecting more payment, and then refuse delivery upon download request, claiming hardware failure?

Does the blockchain have some way to prevent miners from double-spending their storage space? Is payment only collected upon retrieval, allowing Filecoin to be abused for storing backups that are rarely retrieved?

You're making the mistake that 40 hours is just 40 hours. Business work schedules are about being available during the week, not about working for a fixed amount of time.
The central problem is non reversible transactions and storage on PC's. Computer security means the value can drop to zero at any time and using a 3rd party to store your value means you A lose any benefit of coinX vs. WoW gold or whatever, and B run the same risks as their security can fail at any time.

Now sure people can and have made (and lost) a lot of money, but in terms of actual usage it's never going to see mass adoption without first solving the computer security problem.

PS: However, what I think bothers people is it promotes people pumping coinX in the same way they would time shares. That's simply a drag on any online community.
Growing up as an untouchable
And it's even generous of you to call that reflection.
Kind of a pointless chart to me at this point since the data is from 2011 on - massive austerity and joblessness is skewing this data -- the people who do have jobs are working longer just to make the same pay, and the country has 22.5% unemployment, and hovers around 50% youth unemployment. I would be interested in viewing the charts pre-crisis - 2009 and earlier.
I don't know if bluetooth mesh will have the same problem, but zigbee as implemented by Samsung Smartthings leaves a lot to be desired.

For one thing, there is no obvious way to inspect how "the mesh" is configuring itself. I can't observe whether or not repeaters are working as intended nor anything about the quality of the signal strength. The only way to make changes to what gets connected to what is by turning everything off and then turning it back on in a controlled sequence.

I hope that bluetooth mesh vendors will provide tools for troubleshooting and actually inspecting network. Networks can be squirrely things, I don't like taking a shot in the dark with this stuff.
When I say comes with React, I mean like immutability-helpers or Redux or the concept of higher order components, or the idea of css modules. I think it would be a good, optional, companion.

(And the following is not directed against you, but a comment in general: I often feel that many people on HN never heard about the principle of charity, assume I don't know what I'm talking about, and when there are two ways to interpret what I say, assume the least sensible interpretation. This makes commenting quite stressful sometimes, and you feel like having to hedge every comment... Like I tried in the first sentence.)

That approach may minimize props passing, but it also is going to cut down on chances to use `shouldComponentUpdate` to avoid unnecessary re-renders and improve performance. Depending on your app, that might not be an issue, but it's something to be aware of.
I've seen this, hell, I've been such a person.

In order to do something first you have to find the reason why this person doesn't perform to expectations.
Some examples:
- This person hates this job.

- He/She has personal problems.

- This person somehow managed to slip past the vetting process.

You can only really do something about the third one by suggesting improvements in the recruitment process. Most of the time your only option is to either offer help of some sort or patiently wait until that person resigns or gets fired.

The point is, even if the complexity is large, it's not infinite. And over the last few centuries we got pretty good at developing both mental and technological tools to tackle the complexity. While a human can't be expected to keep track of e.g. all the methabolic pathways described in medical textbooks and research papers, it's not a huge deal for a computer. Now of course that is only one of the points in a web of complexity that recursively expands in breadth and depth - but that only invites us to build more and better tools.

> People still die, just of a wider variety of less common reasons. In the limiting case, each person will die of a unique cause.

Right now, human lives are still capped at ~120 years, and usually much less than 100. In the (mathematical) limit, each person will die of a unique cause at age infinite. While we won't ever reach that limit, it's worth to continue getting closer to it.

Yes, I used to cook my mother a veggie meal whenever I visited - nothing special just daal/rice or pasta/tomato sauce and salad. My sister did the same but with plenty of meat/fish. Otherwise she lived out of the freezer and it wasn't veg/meat but prepared pies and stuff.
