Okay, I'm not going to leave this one be. Have you ever considered that the way you communicate may be a bigger issue? Consider this line, from your HN profile:

Email me at admin@affluentconfidante.com if you have a job to get done and money to pay for it.

At best, that is extremely unprofessional.

Or, even consider these phrases from this very comment:

In the past month I only found less than 10 remote jobs

To me that feels like a very small pool in the first place.

maybe I was severely undercut by someone who doesn't have a wife and 5 children to provide for.

In other comments, you've talked about how you don't have a 'public' resume ready, and how you only have two public projects, that you built in an hour or two over the last few weeks.

I'm looking for a job myself, so I understand that it is a hard slog, but seriously, you need to tone down the negativity.
> Esperanto has no feature which set it apart from other European languages.

Do you know why it was created? To have one language for communication for the whole world unencumbered by historical baggage of politico-cultural domineering (e.g., prevalence of english due to British imperialism). (among other reasons).

That right there is a feature that sets it apart from all natural languages (other than the created ones like Klingon, Lojban, etc) not just European.
I'm not a planning guy but I work in a closely related community so I'm a least somewhat familar with the area.

Looking at the first paper (https://arxiv.org/pdf/1707.06170.pdf), it seems surprisingly shallow and light on details. So they have a learning system for continuous planning. So what? The AI Planning community has been doing this for ages with MDPs and POMDPs, solving problems where the planning domain has some discrete variables and some continuous variables. Here's a summary tutorial from Scott Sanner at ICAPS 2012:
http://icaps12.icaps-conference.org/planningschool/slides-Sa...

Speaking of ICAPS: this conference is the primary venue for disseminating scientific results to researchers in the area. Yet the authors here cite exactly one ICAPS paper. WTF?

My bullshit detector is blaring.
The problem is people keep moving the goalposts. As soon as some AI technique is shown, suddenly it's just an algorithm and not actually AI. AI is something else. And then we invent that, and suddenly it's just an algorithm, not AI.

AI is magic. As soon as you know how the trick is done, it's just a trick. It's not magic anymore. There can never be such thing as AI, because as soon as it's put into a computer, it's just an algorithm.

Computers are constantly doing things that only humans could have done just a few years prior, but it's never AI. It's just algorithms.
Sounds like a person problem. You are at the top of HN. Get off your ass and take the few hours it takes to get a resume done. Maybe that's your issue in finding work. You ask for help but are not willing to do the most basic thing required to get a job?
Guy gets caught on a low grade theft charge and just blurts out that he committed a litany of far more serious federal crimes? Someone sitting on 40 million dollars of bitcoin is out stealing cheap laptops from people he has relationships with? Someone with this degree of technical competence doesn't know to encrypt their devices or move assets to somewhere where they don't live? I call bullshit.
I remember reading about an Indian startup making autonomous vehicles. I believe they were bought out by TATA or funded by some big company. This was couple years back.

The problem I've had with U2F is that it mostly works nowhere but Chrome, AFAICT. I guess that would be fine, except that U2F doesn't work on Chrome on my platform (FreeBSD, where it causes a segfault).

I tried for a while to run U2F on firefox with an extension. However, I was forever fiddling with user-agent switchers, as I'd only be offered U2F if I was masquerading as Chrome. And even that didn't seem to be enough to use U2F with Google, the last time I tried.
good background reading is the book "The Master Switch" by Tim Wu. Places current monopolies in historic context. doesn't give them a free pass mind you, just lets you see that monopoly is a very stable and self-perpetuating state of affairs. reminds me of punctuated equalibrium theory.

> it feeds my conspiracy thinking that the Democrats are actually largely indistinguishable from Republicans

Have you been watching anything that's been happening with the healthcare debate over the past, oh, 25 years? The Democrats have been trying with varying degrees of success to inch this country in the direction of a more sensible healthcare system and the Republicans have pitched a generation-long hissy fit about it.
OS X/MacOS doesn't have a "paint" analogue. So users have to run around and install a bunch of things or buy things to replace it. It's a PIA on new systems, and I still am not quite sure what a good new user replacement is.

Years ago when I first learned GUI programming, a simple paint application was the 2nd or 3rd example given.

I hope they replace it with something, I consider such a tool an essential part of any modern GUI OS.
Paypal can also close your account at the drop of a hat, and has a very nice long list of things you can't do with your money when it's connected to paypal (a list of things which will get your account close and your money confiscated in some areas).
When I entered the link I kind of expected to be notified it had be posted already, but no such notice came up. I was revisiting the site today and couldn't remember seeing that article linked here so I thought I'd give it a try.

Nice to see it get around some more. It really is a high quality site and one I look forward to each update with real anticipation.
I don't understand this perspective. When CNN gets a story wrong, the right creates a huge storm and people get fired. When the right gets a story wrong (Breitbart still pushing the hard anti-climate change line, Hannity with the Seth Rich conspiracy, the entire birther movement, Pizzagate, and on and on and on)... nothing happens. Nothing. It took Milo saying "maybe pedophelia isn't that bad" before there was enough of an outcry for him to be fired. It truly frustrates me when I see people pushing this "oh both sides are just as bad, but one is left and one is right". No. They are not.

And it isn't hard to see the direct effects this is having, now. When the governor of Texas calls out the national guard to keep an eye on the US Army doing training exercises, because of right-wing conspiracy insanity that has hit the mainstream, we are having problems. When President Trump can claim that Obama is the founder of Isis and people just eat it up, we are having problems. For God's sake, the man had his press secretary go out on Day One of his presidency and lie about crowd sizes. He spouts bullshit about crime statistics in Sweden and for months, Breitbart suddenly has constant articles about how immigrants are causing everything wrong in Sweden ever (I particularly remember an article with an image of a mangled child, with the claim this was caused by immigrants, only for word to come out later it was a dog attack).

The "mainstream media" (and I use the term in quotes because all the biggest radio shows are right-wing, fox is the biggest cable channel and the WSJ is the biggest paper aside from USA Today) is like a dog chasing a car, towing a pro-business line and chasing after whatever will give them the most eyeballs at the moment. But at least they aren't a goddamn propaganda force for the left, marching in lock-step and feeding off each other the way the right media does.
But it's not like all those people would stay in their home countries and just siphon away all our sweet sweet ubi hoard. These people would become US citizens and their societal output would become part of the country's aggregate output, some of which presumably funds the UBI program. As long as we don't assume people from economically disadvantaged regions are inherently incapable of providing as much value as individuals in advantaged regions then the only way allowing immigration is unsustainable is if UBI itself is unsustainable.
It's like "a criminal" is a truly dystopian term. An attempt to equate a bad guy with the guy the government prosecutes or even merely wants to prosecute.
Some attorneys will actually answer the phone and have a small conversation. Maybe it's rare or different for healthcare issues, but I've made that phone call before. I politely asked a few questions and that was it.
The 7 steps to a complete Code Review
I would argue the exact opposite: that the internet may have enabled the freedom of minorities to express their views without fear of repercussion or immediate ostracism, but that because of the nature of selection bias and the rise of echo chambers/safe spaces/whatever, the internet has made genuine discourse much, much harder. In the US, right now, the degree of polarization is so high that many people get all their news from sources with the same slant, only associate online with people who agree with them, hell, unfriend any high school Facebook friends who post things they find politically unpalatable. In what way is that "having to hear arguments you don't like or agree with"?

Anonymity does remove social ostracism, but I disagree that social coherence is a bad thing.
Great comment about how to be an intelligent consumer. I remember watching that segment and definitely missed the context you described. I'll definitely be more vigilant of that in the future.

So I would be shilling in a hypothetical scenario, and that's the problem?

I've cycled through many methods of eating, trying to find an optimal diet to pair with heavy weight training for 6-7 days a week.. while at the same time keeping my weight more or less the same (with only slight fluctuations).

Intermittent fasting (or more specifically, following a loose version of the Renegade Diet) is where I landed.. and have been able to keep my weight steady while still making strength gains. In my opinion, it's a good choice who have a hard time controlling their food intake without the hassle of counting calories and/or macros. This way, rules are set, and then can look forward to ~4 hours of eating without restriction. I've pushed this feeding window to the limit, and to gain significant amounts of weight week over week, I basically had to eat until I physically sick for multiple days.

I've also had blood work done, with everything being normal since I started over a year ago.
They aren't removing it, they are deprecating it.

There is a hidden message on the new sourceforge TrueCrypt site. The first line of the site is this:

"WARNING: Using TrueCrypt is not secure as it may contain unfixed security issues"

If you take just the first letter of each word, except the word "WARNING":

"Using TrueCrypt is not secure as it may contain unfixed security issues"

you get this:

"uti nsa im cu si"

It's Latin that roughly means:

"Unless I want to use the NSA"

So, the full message seems to be this:

"WARNING: Using TrueCrypt is not secure as it may contain unfixed security issues, unless I want to use the NSA"

Which is English that roughly means:

"Don't use TrueCrypt because it is under the control of the NSA"

The (much) better link on this story is Checkoway's:

https://www.cs.uic.edu/~s/musings/tls13-enterprises/

Fun facts:

* The proposed "wiretapping modification" of TLS 1.3 doesn't really modify the TLS protocol in any way that a proprietary implementation couldn't already do. This is in stark contrast to the banks' original demand for TLS 1.3, of retaining the RSA handshake, which actually does change the protocol.

* The author of the "wiretapping" proposal is Matthew Green.

* Steve Checkoway was one of Matthew Green's students, before Chicago captured him. :)

I think Checkoway's post is pretty level-headed. I think Tim Bray's post is less so.
Yes you can. It has a pen tool built into the Snippet app.
This isn't true, in the sense that recovering lithium from batteries is more expensive than mining new. The main reason for that is that lithium mining is extremely energy efficient and hence cheap.
This sort of thing has been done with actual money, basically forever. It's exactly what forensic accountants are trained to untangle, in cases where far less information is available. It's not going to fool any serious player.

I have a resume, sorry for the miswording. But my wife values privacy and so isn't comfortable with me just posting it up here on HN willy nilly. And although I am comfortable with it, I feel obligated to respect her wishes.
Propaganda. Pure and simple. People have been lied to about how healthcare should and could work for so long that they hold political beliefs that are completely at odds with their best interests.

We have the resources to fix many of these problems. But we won't. The powers that be would prefer lower taxes.
That has nothing to do with aspects considered in the context of linguistics, however.
I think this is an issue better-resolved by separating traffic modes. Strapping noise makers on to a vehicle to make it safer is a sort of "pseudo-solution" which hops around solving the core issue.

Electric bicycles traveling that fast probably shouldn't be permitted on the same channel/road that foot-traffic uses. Though I don't live in Beijing so I can't speak to their decision (or lack of) for that.

Likewise, in the U.S. I've seen a few downtown areas try to be "green" by simply throwing some bike lanes on a 5-lane road. It's quite dangerous to ride a bike along that because of the traffic going 35-40mph. Separate that bike lane with bollards, at minimum, or build a separated "sidewalk" for e-bikes and scooters. Putting bicycles on the same road as 3,500 lb vehicles hurtling at 40mph is a joke.
One detail usually overlooked with having a fleet of electric cars is the added weight of the battery and the extra wear and tear this will create on our highways. There is a rule of thumb that says that highway damage goes up by the 4th power of the axle weight. So an electric car that is 33% heavier than the an ICE car, will cause (4/3)^4 = 3.16 times as much damage.
So if we all go to electric cars and if batteries do not become lighter, then expect road to not last as long. Also, concrete production itself is a serious CO2 source.

What has privacy got to do with anything? Nuke your address/phone numbers, but it's somewhat unreasonable to ask for a job without a resume, and substituting that with 2 days of work (You said it took you about a day each to build the projects you linked in another comment).
> It will happen, but it's definitely not going to be "immediate".

Normally, you would be correct. However, there will be so much at stake that there will be huge amounts of money greasing the skids on any required legislation.

Real Level 3 Autonomy will displace 75% of truckers almost immediately--that's 1.5 million jobs lost. You will have one or two drivers in the front truck and a half-dozen trucks running autonomously but slaved to the front truck. WalMart will almost certainly lead the charge.

Level 4 autonomy will allow the insurance companies to jack insurance rates on normal drivers through the roof. You will get a massive insurance discount if you never touch the wheel (removes human driver error--total monitoring so always other driver's fault).

With that much money at stake, the obstacles will melt like ice in the summertime. See: Fracking in Pennsylvania for an example of how fast legislation can move with enough money behind it.
Give it 10-20 years and you won't need to sign up, you'll just receive your UBI into your bank account every week. Well, that or the country you live in will have to let 30-40% of its people starve because there's nothing they can do better than a machine.

Remember, those idle workers aren't being paid a nice pay packet. They'll be on subsistence wages only. You'll still want to work a job if you want nice things.

The concern is valid, but the way the author expresses it is totally paranoid. It is not "easy" to insert a "wiretap" into TLS - as the technical article, which reached the FP as well yesterday, explains, nothing the WG is discussing isn't already possible in TLS 1.2. If you're scared of a wiretap, it's already happening. Nothing is being introduced.
I dont know what kind of source you'd expect but i can share some articles.

A note on union leaders owning million dollar homes: http://www.ambito.com/793963-los-duenos-del-paro-y-de-grande...

This is the "most successfull" union leader of argentina phyisically removing the president of the largest private post office: http://www.perfil.com/politica/moyano-fue-a-oca-y-echo-por-l...

Turns out he owns a post office with thousands of employees. He owns a lot of things, being president of a soccer club and all. He was never anything else but a trucker and a trucker union leader.

A note on noteworthy union leaders salaries, ranging 10-15x the earnings of the workers they represent:

http://www.laizquierdadiario.com/A-vos-que-te-cuesta-llegar-...

Union leaders are not forced to publicly disclosed their tax filings, so you can only gauge what they own by what they do.

You can argue this is anecdotal evidence, but then again, theres no way to make it no anecdotal because its protected information.

> It's not a simple issue, but there are many complexities you seem to have overlooked.

Funny, that was exactly my reaction when to your comment.

> I'm curious, what do you think would happen if we gave the UBI out to everyone immediately?

I'm confused why you're even bringing this up, since we agree this wouldn't work. If that's the position you're arguing against it's a straw man.

I'm interested in UBI, but I think we'd need a system that isn't as deeply and fundamentally flawed as the "wait N years" system. I think it's a complicated enough issue that I have honestly no idea how to tackle it, so the comment that I am "overlooking" complexities seems completely out of left field.

Anything that cuts off all the people on SSI is a non-starter.
It is a much easier and possibly the easiest language to learn especially for those who already speak a latin-based language. In some cases, people can be thought of as fluent with a couple months of learning the language.

It's also not tied to any particular nation which makes it easier for people to adopt without feeling like they are just being taken over by another culture.

This is all to say that Esperanto is genuinely better as a second language for Europe and the Americas if not the world.

But it is true that enablement of privacy enables criminality. Use by criminals is a valid argument against privacy!

However, strong and valid arguments against privacy don't make privacy not worth fighting for if you believe there are stronger arguments for it. I do. I assume you do based on your stance.

The world isn't black and white, so suggesting people shouldn't surface valid arguments (on either side of any issue) is more harmful in the long run. We need all the valid arguments, from as many people as possible, that we might make informed decisions on these important issues.
