What's the easiest way to view the actual commit diff? I'm curious about what version of clang they're using, as the message indicates that they were using gcc4 before, which is fairly old.
100 million paying 10k is much more likely. And 1 trillion is in market value, not revenue. Imagine if you could sell a therapy such as a seasonal cure for "common cancer". Drugs can be insanely profitable and there are already several drug makers in the hundreds of billions of market cap.
The idea alone that car companies would even try to provide their own navigation system that's built into the car is infuriating to me. I will have my car for way over ten years. By that time anything computer related that came with the car might as well have seen the thirty year war. In that same time I will have gone through three phones easily. The navigation and entertainment system needs to be as dumb as possible and as easily swapped out as possible. Anything else is ridiculous.
If you are producing a useful good or service would you honestly prefer to market it pre-Facebook? The volume, price and ability to focus narrowly on only the people most likely to care... It's worth a lot to a lot of makers.

My understanding is that potential licensing incompatibilities is what has kept ZFS from being (tightly) integrated into linux:

They have been trying for years. I still have several emails from before I retired offering $250 MS point gift cards or Xbox One consoles just for submitting an app for approval.

Still couldn't be bothered.
They also appear to be using CVS, which is even older. :-)

Yes, you probably missed a few lessons in high school. When I went there, I was taught that separation of powers is an important element, amongst others. This clearly does not apply to Hungary anymore, as the highest juridical power is an inner circle person (Tunde Hando), other important positions have also been filled with Fidesz's (the ruling party) people without any consensus with the opposition. This includes the constitutional court, the president of the republic (wait, what? Hungary is not even a republic anymore :) ). The police got and executed on direct commands from the PM.

But if you don't like that, here's a short excerpt from Wikipedia: "No consensus exists on how to define democracy, but legal equality, political freedom and rule of law have been identified as important characteristics."[1]

We don't have any of these. Or, to put it in an easier to digest way: all of these have been regularly (and increasingly) violated by the govt.

As probably a fellow Hungarian who likes (is emotionally attached to) this government, I understand you are OK with it, but it doesn't make the current system any more democratic. Fun fact: the Kadar system called itself democratic too. But it's judged from the outside, for obvious reasons.

> Most other drugs have to be proven safe to use even before showing tangible benefits.

What? I encourage you to read about prescription drug side effects. If a drug were safe, it would be over the counter rather than prescription. Prescription drugs are exactly the kind of harm/benefit bundle GP is describing.
There is an essential difference between being bled less (which is what these tax breaks appear to be) versus receiving a blood transfusion.
I agree with the others that this is a long way off. But just imagine, if 200 years from now, you could grow a space-worthy carapace overnight, with attachments for gear. And organs that transform a dense solid into maneuvering gas and oxygenated blood. In fact, we could just do away with the whole breathing thing, that is so unreliable and unhygienic.

Adware always had telemetry. But I get your point. Let's call it spyware then if we think companies might use our source as a consequence. I find it highly unlikely but admit it is possible.
Most agree that it is unethical to purposely have a disabled/diseased child if it possible to not have a nondisabled one. In that case, I think it is quite ethical for this technology to be used on those with debilitating genetic defects. We’re in no rush to allow any genome editing other than that.
ZFS's license (CDDL) is generally considered incompatible with Linux's (GPLv2), whereas it's compatible with the BSD license. See https://sfconservancy.org/blog/2016/feb/25/zfs-and-linux/, which also discusses the case of Ubuntu moving towards including it by default anyhow.
So this is for running Rust code from Python... Just curious, is there an existing way to do the opposite and run Python code from Rust?
What's the meaning of "default compiler" in this context? Will the kernel be built with clang or gcc?
"Mathematically correct" doesn't seem like the right way to think about it, since the whole problem is that it isn't correct!

Stimulants will make them more active during work hours. They are talking about energy in evening hours. If you are suggesting stimulant use in evening hours, let me shut that down right now, because it will affect their sleep quality.

Exercise is a decent idea. I would suggest an antidepressant instead of a stimulant, though.
I'm going to be the contrarian of the thread and tell you that children and family are the ultimate competitive advantage. They make you focus and become more of a realist. I say this as I have become a surprise father (we adopted a niece to keep her out of states custody, sad story) in May and something about having someone so tiny and unconditionally loving depend on you really changed my out look. It's hard to put into words how I feel and what's changed but my side projects I fiddled with now either have a purpose or they're shelved. I am of a singular mind to march forward and provide for my wife and child. I think that's what makes someone successful singular mindset and a clear goal and a family and child have sure provided that for me.
Just sold the sailboat though ️
I imagine gcc4 was used due to it being the last gcc available before gcc moved to GPLv3. At least that's why FreeBSD stuck with it as the base compiler.
I agree. If it's put on hold until too late, it's really likely rash decisions will be made. It's almost as if we aren't learning from SciFi films.

> That does not make the incentives any difference than a cash payment in exchange for building the factory.

Sure it does. A state writing a check for, say $100 million dollars requires spending $100 million dollars (possibly borrowing it to do so). Giving $100 million dollars in tax reductions requires spending $0. The former may not be feasible, while the latter generally is, so the two are not equivalent.
I'm confused. Terraforming is 1000+ years away, if we are ever even able to do it at all. I'm unclear of what you mean by 'small levels' because either you are terraforming, or you aren't. You have to create an atmosphere, you need to create a planets worth or water, you need to inject a crap ton of CO2 into the atmosphere to create the material plants will use as building blocks, to create the O2. All of this is millennia away. We've been non stop injecting CO2 into the atmosphere since the beginning of the industrial era, and that (while a bit of an issue today), isn't nearly enough carbon to begin to terraform a planet.

But for genetically modifying stuff, we're doing really well on that track. Most of the tech needed for designer babies is here. The issues with it aren't the tech existing, but our willingness to create massive numbers of defective offspring before we get a viable glow in the dark human. It's not the tech that's lacking, only our appetite for failed runs and a severe distaste for side-effects. But that's proven to work, CRISPR has already proven to be able to make glow in the dark pigs, so it's a matter of refinement. We don't have the slightest clue about terraforming. Just ideas at this point.

What country uses '.' as the thousands separator but speaks English? Or is this someone mixing their native language thousands separator with English? Or is there some weird interaction between country and language that makes this the preferred, or at minimum an acceptable standard form? I'm actually hoping it's one of the latter options, that would be something new to me.
I went to the Github page specifically to vote against this petition ... Using the star is more of a bookmark to me but it certainly doesn't provide a way to down vote the idea.
Yes, you would be able to do a lot with the flexible recompose. I’ve tried to make something more friendly and lightweight that makes common use cases easier. I can find recompose a little overwhelming in the multiple layers.
Good point! I hadn't thought of that. That being said, I thought that GPL was compatible with BSD; is that not the case for GPLv3, or was this more of an ideological choice by the OpenBSD developers?

Edit: Not sure what the reason for downvoting an honest question is; from Googling, I can't find anything about incompatibility between GPL and BSD, and I didn't express any opinion about the merits of BSD vs. GPL.
If there is no scientific theory of abiogenesis then there can be no theory so well developed that there is no competing scientific explanation. If it isn't science in the first place, it can't be science in the second place.

Abiogenesis and evolution as complementary ideas and its competition of intelligent design are philosophical standpoints attempting to portray themselves as science. They are metaphysical.

A simple example of one of the current evolutionary ideas is that there is much "junk" dna within each lifeform. If this is so, then with the current technology, we should be able to edit this "junk" dna out of the chromosomal dna structure and still be able to have fully viable lifeforms that breed true and are fully compatible for the pre-edited lifeforms. if there is 80% "junk", we should be able to edit this 80% out with no ill side-effects. If it turns out that we can't edit this "junk" out without causing non-viability or ill side-effects that that dna was not "junk" in the first place.

Over all the hundreds of millions of species existing on this planet, we should be able to find all sorts of species that are in transition forms (having partially functional organs or forms) today. You can make all sorts of claims about what has happened in the past, especially when you cannot actually test those living organisms in the lab.

I haven't heard of snopes.com before

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snopes.com

Snopes.com /ˈsnoʊps/, also known as the Urban Legends Reference Pages, is a website covering urban legends, Internet rumors, e-mail forwards, and other stories of unknown or questionable origin.[4] It is a well-known resource for validating and debunking such stories in American popular culture,[5] receiving 300,000 visits a day as of 2010.

Snopes.com was created by Barbara and David Mikkelson, a California couple who met in the alt.folklore.urban newsgroup. The site is organized by topic and includes a message board where stories and pictures of questionable veracity may be posted.
Thanks for the detailed input. They are tremendously valuable.

Part of the reason we chose to open source is that we want the community to innovate. We are continuing to build the feature set, however I need to say that the workflow varies from app to app. Therefore, by providing the base building block and allowing others to create different solutions, we could enable more options to the market.
You consented to it, sure. This bug affected millions of phones. It's more like a car manufacturer decided to put a particular explode-y gas tank in a car, because it provided greater performance.
That's six of one, a half dozen of another given that tax rebates are a thing.
Damn, now I have a legitimate reason to buy a sailboat ;)
Sorry are you saying that women aren't competitive, or that men can't compete with women? Because there are the same number of boys and girls as before, they're just together. So even if I accept one of those (which I don't), the boys can still be competitive with each other, there are just girls in the vicinity.

> If you keep more of your money through a change in tax policy, you are suggesting that the government gave you money?

That's a complicated question in the case of generally applicable changes in tax policy, like a new tax credit available to anyone who posts on internet discussion boards.

It's a simple, straightforward “yes” when the change in tax policy only applies to me, and only for a specific action (post on HN about the Foxconn factory deal, and get $5000 of your federal income tax.)

The latter is more like a government contract (but without the competitive aspects and other controls designed to assure fairness and public value.)
I can’t imagine anybody in their right mind would create a genome that had a DRM. Furthermore, would you sign up for a procedure like that? Also it’s a violation of somebody’s human rights to stop them from reproducing!

What is really happening is that normal copies of the human genome are being incorporated. Which are then passed on to your sperm/ovum.
Even small adjustments can make things better. One example is how melatonin levels in people vary based on what latitude they came from. Native Eskimos can digest different foods. The ability to synthesize vitamin C. Some people are more adapted to lower pressures (high altitude). Smaller body size can reduce life support requirements. It's endless.
Awesome, thanks a bunch!
I love the C.H.I.P board, seems like they'd have better market penetration if their name wasn't "CHIP" though. I feel like the Particle IOT line has suffered a similarly hindrence?
I don't think you can remove a discussion about changes in allele frequencies from environments. Thus, making 'other things being equal' is not a reasonable premise from which to discuss evolution.

I do see the argument you are espousing but I would only suggest that you consider the broader context of what happens when new species arise. I suspect you care more about the elimination of alleles (which is surprisingly hard to do), but this is a good example for why I disagree:

One possibility for speciation is the creation of a new niche (lets say a new type of tree grows on an island, its seeds having been carried there by an unusual current). Here, organisms might have increased reproductive opportunities over their neighbors by exploiting this new tree. In time, one could imagine organisms that live in the new tree, like microbes, could acquire enough new features to constitute a new species.

Consider the case where organisms from the original population become unable to grow on the new tree. If the new species is also unable to grow in the original environment, how can we say either is more or less resilient?
It depends on the router too. My arch Linux connects almost instantly to my Ubiquiti WiFi AP on wake from sleep, but takes seconds to connect to my phone AP.
For one thing you are using exclamation point. However your example isn't really pushing personality onto users, some polite playfulness can be welcome. An example of what I had in mind that isn't in itself of poor taste but would still be unwelcome at least to me would be if somebody was pushing their metal subculture into their spreadsheet software for no apparent reason.
There is no new business model that will derive a lot more money. There's a finite amount of global income available in a given year and it's not expanding at a rapid clip.

The very specific problem is the rest of the world will never pay it, and the US is aiming to stop paying it (exorbitant prices). Nothing is going to change that, it's a fact of life when resources such as income and wealth are inherently limited and expand fairly slowly overall. If you come up with something spectacular that is very valuable, they're still not going to pay it - it was demonstrated overwhelmingly by the HepC cure (and has been demonstrated by vaccines as another for decades; what's more life saving than vaccinations? and yet the developing world simply will not - and frequently can't - pay high prices for such).

Vaccines have saved hundreds of millions of lives. Give me an example of something that is going to beat that. Now take a look at the extraordinarily unspectacular financial outcome for the vaccination market (particularly compared to the trillion dollar premise being discussed). Why would anyone by default believe something amazing that comes out of CRISPR, would produce a dramatically superior financial outcome versus what vaccines have produced?

Mt Fuji is only about 100km away from Tokyo. Main problem is there are tons of buildings blocking your view, but if you're at a high enough floor you can see the it even when it's a bit cloudy. For example, see the last pic here:

It's not exactly an exception; it's just on one end of the spectrum. The more serious the illness, the more serious the treatment side effects we tend to tolerate.
I think you are offering up a false alternative.

It really is a choice between three outcomes. (1) No factory is built, no taxes collected. (2) Factory is built, company pays full sticker price on the taxes. (1) is unappealing because nothing is created. So we arrive at (3), where the company understandably wants to renegotiate the sticker price on the taxes and the taxing body doesn't want to end up in scenario (1), so they come to an agreement somewhere in the middle.

Why is this translated into the company received cash from the taxing entity?

I feel like it's more likely that the Education apps they're trying to push to UWP would be ported to the web. I am a firm believer that there are places where desktop apps make more sense but from a market standpoint, porting to UWP gives you access to Win 10/10S but porting to the web gives you Win 10/10S, iPhone, Android, Windows 7, OS X, Chromebooks, etc. That's a lot more coverage for your dollars spent.
My apologies, my previous post was not clear on what I was really questioning. I am attempting to hold up chemotherapy as an example of pragmatism which exposes how the premise of "Do not harm" is not a helpful rule. I believe we may be conflating "proven safe" with "does absolutely does no harm", which are much different standards.

Assessing treatments on thereputic merit - does a treatment create significantly more benefit than it does harm (As chemotherapy is a standard bearing example), is, based on the evidence I've observed, the preferable approach.

I mean, in the case of a C compiler your code is mere data so license compatibility isn't really the concern.

BSD projects don't care for the anti-tivoization clause in the GPLv3 because it restricts where the software can be deployed, the GPLv2 was acceptable because there was no better alternative at the time and, again code was data in the case of a compiler.
We could get rid of genetic diseases without editing the genome. Just screen embryos before IVF.
Antidepressants cause more problems than solve, at least from my experience. Modafinil(modalert) is a mood enhancer, which I use when I wake up. Weed is too, depending on the individual. Sativa brings you up with energy and focus and then brings you down to help you sleep.

I don't think there's any need for a cui bono line of thinking. There are biologists who have nothing to gain who thought this paper was lousy. For example, every single biologist in my department that I spoke to, and every biologist I've found online who had something to say on the matter.

Perhaps that's too much of a selection bias for you, so I'll offer this critique: if you wanted to measure the off target effects of Cas9 in an organism, you would probably sequence the organism before you edited it, and then sequence it again after you edited it. But that's not what they did.
Why does this have up votes?
