Curious, what do you use it for?
I dunno what kind of a PhD the guy mentioned in the article had, but the most important thing I learned from my unfinished PhD was how to actually convey your ideas to others. Go from an idea to a paper, put it into a few slides, entertain the audience and make them follow you... And I had to do it several times, for each publication along the way.
I'm unsure. When you increse RAM speed the timings are relaxed, and I would think that cache is the same.
I was directly replying to the asked question. But, it is not just the developmental timeline that was off. There's also its hypothesis of what children learn and how they reason or what they are capable of that is inaccurate.

Child centered, problem centered is vague. More practically, the big things are: you want material that's novel to the learner but also somewhat familiar (this is true, regardless of age). Children's attention is more distributed and worse at blocking out irrelevancies. Therefore, more complex tasks (such as math) should be presented in a way such that the signal meant to be learned can be extracted with minimal ambiguity (less extraneous information in presentation). Few other things have replicated.
"Vietnam [...] has no extradition" {{citation-needed}}

https://www.bing.com/search?q="deported+from+vietnam" + https://www.google.com/search?q="deported+from+vietnam" suggest otherwise
We can't even if we wanted too ;) (most Teslas don't have video output).
Seriously this. Biggest thing I learned when I started my PhD was that communication skill is key. The interviewers in the blog post weren't looking for cutting-edge best theoretical approach, they were just interested in his process of thinking.
I know very well that is the goal, I've been following this project for years now. My point still stands, you need to compile specifically for the CPU it's run on, or you need to move the final compilation to the end user. The only way to achieve reasonable performance if you distribute platform independent code is by using a process VM.

I'm not saying it will not be faster, just that it is a weakpoint in the Mill architecture compared to x86.
It's important not to let pragmatism wander into anti-intellectualism.

"pedagogy, psychology, and mathematics" are all well-defined terms with non-bullshit meanings. Montessori, Papert and Bruner are well-known names whose theories would be familiar to anyone with a background in learning theory. McLuhan (the "medium is the message" guy) is similarly well-known in media circles, and if you want to understand why Alan Kay thinks he's important, he wrote about it: https://kokonautlabs.wordpress.com/2013/02/27/alan-kay-on-ma...

I'm not saying you're wrong to dislike the article or Kay, but the way that you got there seems to be by saying "they rely on a bunch of bullshit that nobody understands". How are you, presumably lacking a background in the ideas they are talking about, able to determine the difference between good theory and bullshit?

If you want to reason about something, like how people learn, or how technology shapes thought, how would you do that without building a theory about it? How would you build that theory without ideas? How would you refer to those ideas without names? Is your criticism anything more than just that you don't know the names in a field you aren't familiar with?

God bless the real engineers who make things work; programming and the personal computer were revolutionized with the availability of hardware like TTL ICs, not pseudo-engineers bloviating about "structured programming".

But I've seen the code written by real engineers, and they could perhaps use a little less pragmatism and a little more theory. Thinking in abstractions can certainly lead to bullshit, but I'd rather that than no thinking at all.
Attackers certainly hope so: then their work will still be easy, as long as they can get a rogue device into the building.

We need to actually write (and purchase) better software.
Does the "sync folders" feature support checksumming? Basic file integrity checks would be nice.

Please enlighten us.

Here are some facts:

As per the design of the Bitcoin software, payouts were made to users running standard home PCs with simple ~3Ghz processors, and as a result, the software minted thousands of BTC tokens to their accounts for the rather trivial processor cycles. As per the design of the bitcoin protocol, running the bitcoin software now on the same computer, would mint a fraction of a coin. Bitcoin was designed to favor the people who created it, and the few early users who ran the software.

The assumption that the bitcoin service is unique, rare, or scarce is just not the case. The historical records of these ponzi payouts are public record. Hundreds of alt coins with active 'networks' are running on the public Internet right now, offering the same service as the BTC network, and often improved upon features like scrypt, ZKP, or the EVM.

The divestment of digital beanie babies as I passed the hot potato of a 2.4-transaction-per-second digital message system with a horrible dev team and censor happy community currently in a civil war, to rubes who exchanged actual universally accepted fiat paper was enough to console me for a years to come.

Maybe we are all destined for the moon, as the legends go. Because a distributed database message system and expansive misinformation campaign has convinced people as much. Or maybe bubbles are temporary?
Don't worry too much this study is bullshit

Step 1 - be an adult white male graduated at the beginning of an unprecedented and unique economic boom

Step 2 - graduate out of the most prominent college of the period

Step 3 - watch your asset grow themselves

Step 4 - enjoy the life without never have to worry about job security, housing, spending power

Yeah no shit sherlock. I guess being upper middle class does wonder to one life. Meanwhile we have to contend with constant worry about our future, our kids future and one misstep in our career path can and will landslide into a life of regrets.

And this study just say 'socialize' and everything else will magically go away.
You'd need to prove that a DBMS executes a query always correctly to begin with. That in itself would be quite the task.

Additionally SQL as supported by some DBMSes (e.g. Postgres due to recursive CTE and window functions) is turing complete. That makes proving equivalency in general a bit challenging.
Thanks for the Peirce reference. Would you recommend any books/papers/videos as introduction to his work?
When you raise a round >$500k, talk to potential lead investors before anyone else. Defer all conversations with investors who do not lead. Ask investors before taking a meeting if they lead. If they don't or say that do and still pull that shit, immediately disengage.
Wasn't the purpose of bitcoin to eventually hit a limit someday? Isn't the creation of Ethereum just devaluing bitcoin?
I am pretty sure that you are wrong. If you add a vault to e.g. Dropbox, you can share it. My wife and I had been doing this for years, even when we switched to a subscription. This was also AgileBits's supported/advised way of sharing vaults before 1password.com.

They now just recommend using their 1password.com service for sharing.

I really like the way intellect is defined in this post. It's mostly persistence that guides you to success.
Heroku doesn't maintain database state. Your dyne can essentially be erased and restarted with an empty database. That's not usable for production systems.
But why isn't it viable? I don't understand.

Arq forces your files into their own proprietary (although open) containers, which are always encrypted. Being paranoid is nice and all, but it makes it impossible to log in into your cloud storage provider and browse your files or share a public link to one of your files.

Arq is atrocious for backups, but that doesn't seem to be its main use case.
How do you know they're uneducated?
Think how many startups lose huge amounts of money for years and years. I just don't understand how a company could close when they had a reliable, well-done, popular, software product. I seem to recall they charged some reasonable amount for it - it wasn't free - which must have covered expenses and then some.

I just don't get it.
Isn't this basically the same advice you can find in hundreds of books and blog posts about how to approach a tech company interview? Is there something about having a Ph.D. that makes a person incapable of googling "what to expect in a coding interview" or buying a copy of CTCI before they head out the door to try to find a job?

As an interviewer, it's important to set expectations ahead of time so the candidate knows what they're getting into. It sounds like that wasn't done here. But it seems like the cat should be pretty far out of the bag about this style of question for anyone who bothered to prepare in advance.
Ask HN: US Health coverage for non-citizen/resident founder
As an unmarried, non-US citizen/resident founder on a work visa in California, I have had a hard time navigating health insurance in America (surprise surprise). Are there others in a similar position with experience? Options? Tradeoffs? Most others I know are either permanent residents (green card) giving them Medi-Cal or ACA coverage or married to someone working at a BigCorp that provides health insurance for the family.

We do not have company provided insurance as the rest of my team has affordable insurance. What are other international unmarried founders doing for health insurance in the US?
> Don’t worry if you come up with a shitty answer. Just come up with something.

This is such a blatantly false statement. Nobody cares if you come up with a shitty answer in an interview. They expect working code which is optimal. You won't pass the interview if you write a naive, working solution. It's literally all or nothing. Maybe it's time companies make it clear to candidates.
I do find it remarkable the extent to which knowledge workers are discouraged from sitting and thinking about stuff. We seem to have a generation of managers who've more-or-less entirely conflated "work" and "collaboration".

While it looks like this company wasn't the place to try it, I do find myself admiring the student who had the fortitude to keep on working through the problem while the interviewers looked on. I hope he finds a better opportunity soon.
a simple alias for rsync in bash wouldn't suffice? Don't get me wrong, I like the project. What was the motive behind it? The "Why?" section doesn't go it justice.
I always find it incredible when these takedowns occur, how much effort they put into the graphical design. And it doesn't look like a hobby designer among the police did this, but they hired somebody.

Also, considering this is a drug sting, which should be a really serious thing, it's strange that they make a joke on the page.

I would expect a plain HTML page saying "This hidden service hosted illegal activities. All transactions have been logged. If you participated in these activities, contact your local authorities."
I ended up building some tooling scripts to do this for stored procedures. It compares the output of the current and proposed stored procedures for all possible parameters and displays the differences and the set of parameters that it used.

It's not formal verification by any means, but it seemed to work pretty well in practice. It would take forever though. I'd start it and walk away for a couple hours when I wanted a thorough test. But my confidence in correctness and performance gain (it measured perf too) was well worth the effort.
>I wonder how do you ride your plane then?

I don't understand this comparison. The underlying concepts involved in flying a plane is way more understood, tested, and regulated than writing software is. If the choice was between dying in a plane crash, and dying due to a software bug/exploit, I'd choose the plane every time.

Most research(I'd guess) doesn't contradict other research/theory, it tells of discovery.

No one has proven there's no 9th planet for instance. No one's proven drug X doesn't help with disease Y.

Multiple things have pointed to way less than 65,000 years (As per link)

Of course conformity with theory is also a problem, we think it's 50,000 years so we make our study on X (aka DNA) conform with this.

But both articles are HN worthy and one is wrong. So if you're not skeptical then there's a problem with your world view.
This is not the same thing, though. I hope you realize. This is not bringing Live Photos to Android nor allowing cross-platform playback.

It's just giving Android users a handy app to loop videos.

Air also causes experience shifting changes in body. Think of the last time you went without it. Also thoughts cause multiple experience shifts during the day. Maybe we should start be controlling the air and eliminating thoughts before we get to these bigger things?
Ok, while we are on BART gripes: what is the deal with people trying to squeeze their way upstream and board the cars before everyone has fully detrained? In NYC peeps form little ad-hoc queues to the left and right of the doors, let the exiters exit, then enter in two quick streams. In the Bay, I feel like MFing Moses trying to part the sea when exiting a train.

Don't even get me started on the weird station lines that people form at Embarcadero/Montgomery/Powell...
I always thought that conclusion was the reason the "encryption wars" ended in the USA, and the subsequent removal of encryption from being an export controlled "munition".

Forget breaking strong encryption, far easier to use a camera, key logger, or other means of "spy craft".
Hardware makers unlike publishers compete more directly. So everything counts.
Law and Language
If a smart contract is also a binding, legal contract, then normal contract law applies - and intent matters here in the real world. Therefore, it's theft.

I am most certainly not a lawyer.
DD isn't exactly cheap. And neither is partner time, that's probably a more precious resource than money at your average VC.

A failed DD says as much about the VC as it says about the company, it more often than not translates into 'VC didn't do their homework', and it can really eat into the '2' of the 2 and 20, those DD costs will come straight out of the operating capital of a fund. Especially for smaller VCs this can really hurt.
Write your own tools.

The EVM, which is what executes contracts, has a public spec. It's a bytecode machine and writing a compiler for it should be rather trivial compared to x86.

There are also several other languages you can code in and there are some code verifier tools that allow you to check if your contract is good.

The problem is that despite these tools existing, even if they are used, they are underused.
>I wonder how do you ride your plane then?

When I was in physics undergrad, I remember talking to engineering students taking statics. In general physics, we were allowed to make simple numerical errors, the emphasis then was on figuring out the solution and understanding the physics. My friends on the other hand complained how they, after acing gen. physics, would get mercilessly docked off points for minor arithmetic errors and calculation errors in statics.

They'd complain to the professor and he'd reply, "that mistake you made means your bridge will collapse! It doesn't matter if it's minor!" The point is to become an certified engineer, there is a certain level of rigor you need to have because of the gravity of what you deal with, and if that fails, engineers have been held legally liable.

The article said it itself, and I really couldn't believe how blantant it was:

>Most of the programmers who are getting into this space, myself included, come from a web development background, and the blockchain toolchain is designed to be familiar for web developers.[...]The problem is, blockchain programming is fundamentally different from web development.

My mouth was wide open reading this here, people who have the discipline of web developers are the ones developing Ethereum? And this is the promised land that one day will be the future and I'm supposed to believe it?

Sorry, for some aspects of life, brightness and having a great community are not enough, especially when you want to do something that you could lead to risk of loss of life or limb.
> You don't get published for confirming existing theory (Sad but true, to an extent)

Reproducing studies and publishing the results is a hallmark of science so I'm not sure I understand what you're referring to.
Well, the cartels have already caused their part and would have done it regardless, now normal people will get in trouble, possibly lose their jobs and get their lives ruined for basically no reason.
Photoshop can extract frames from a video, from which you can save animated gifs or just single frame stills.

Premiere or Final Cut can easily export single frames as stills.

As for doing it with free tools, I don't know, but I wouldn't be surprised if there are a number of good ways.
I tend to be very skeptical of a list that puts python into #1 spot. R also so high? Again this makes little sense.

I think we should not require person to be certied rather the code to be certified by a body. I think we already have this for Infra like PCIDSS and there private companies. Now if some one setup a company and work insure for cerified code it will be great

And people should demand for such static analysis like now we do ask https connections

I think the idea is that you shouldn't want to have GraphQL server code containing business logic code in it.

You think a lack of technology is what's keeping these giants back from innovating? There's a reason many banks still have mainframes powering large portions of their internals. Lack of new tech is not holding them back.
The EVM might be turing-complete but since you can only get finite number of execution cycles, you can usually determine the behaviour of your program or if it halts within the current gas limits.
Mesh IDE: edit code with a spreadsheet interface
Why would Steam even need a survey?

Because they need permission from the user to collect the data.

Even if the data is undercounting Linux (maybe Linux games are less likely to take the survey) the trend is consistently down for ~4 years now. So you might make a case that the size is bigger than the survey shows, but not that it is growing.
I find normally its the childless engineers who don't want to move out the city, because that's where the fun is at. I think that's why this isn't happening.

What? A decent PhD needs to have a payback horizon (time between start to commercialization) of over 5 years. Startups cannot afford that level of risk. PhDs should be much riskier than startup pitches.

Maybe it is an artifact of the fact that I work on computer systems research (where the focus is on finding the simplest solution that works) but the comments here make me wonder where you (collectively) are finding your PhD candidates!

I do agree that is often OK for PhD code to be terrible ("least publishable unit"), but that is also true of non-core production code at startups! ("Minimum viable product")
I was dat solitude guy, maybe 10 years alone with just rare random interactions, but then i found people that are on same page as me and oh boy! Massive difference! I feel reborn, problem was that i prefere be alone than with people who have different world wiev as they just suck ur energy and piss u off, while once i found people on ma page it was pure joy.
I find that sport fills this function for me. After being a very cerebral, non sporty child I was lucky enough to find sports I really enjoyed (badminton & tennis) in my late teens.

When I've moved from city to city I've joined a good local badminton club and played in local leagues. With that has come vigorous exercise AND social interaction. Latterly its also brought the opportunity to contribute to local community through coaching my club's juniors. I find this challenging in a very rewarding way.
Honestly I don't think much is solved by EditorConfig.

I mean, the idea is great, but the small amount of parameters supported makes it pretty much useless.
Indentation character and size, line termination, ... and that's all. I would need a hundred of these (like clang-format, yapf, etc have) to switch to EditorConfig. Unfortunately, looking at the commit log frequency, I doubt EditorConfig will ever have more than the 10 or so parameters that it already have.
