I was diagnosed with stage 2 colorectal at 33 which became stage 4 a few years in. I've been in remission for a year but I can't help but feel that 30 is the new 40 with regards to cancer. May be that mother nature trying to get a grasp on our population. I hear more and more cases of people getting it younger and younger.

"Thats borderline ludditeism. We can't detect CO or even CO2, should that stop us from using fire?"

I said that fear was justified - not that we should or should not use those things.

Similarly we should indeed be afraid of CO for those very same reasons. I know I certainly have a healthy respect for, and fear of, CO.
Before I watched this I (like most people) assumed the Pacific Garbage Patch was a solid mass one could stand on. The fact that it's more like confetti makes the idea of cleaning it seem that much more difficult.
The problem is that in the space of {things that are unmentionable in polite company}, there may be a few nuggets of important new ideas, but those nuggets are lost in a torrent of shit.

I think it's important to be able to discuss taboo topics to find those important nuggets. From my perspective it's not totally crazy to have complete free speech platforms to pursue that goal, but it's probably better done in private among trusted friends, where it has been established that you are not generally assholes, than on a semi-public platform, where you will drown in a torrent of shit brought on by the mass of contrarian assholes who will inevitably flock to the platform.

It's analogous to Peter Thiel and Paul Graham's argument that most successful startups will look like bad ideas at the outset. (http://www.businessinsider.com/this-venn-diagram-shows-why-s...)

An Important New Truth probably looks stupid at first, otherwise someone else would have figured it out already.

The moment they replace a gif image with ads it will kill all that goodwill. I do think selling the gifs would work though. People (1) are willing to pay a lot for attention/be cool/social/funny.
The strategy will be to purge the Internet from gif images containing content from their partners, so that you can only find gif images from their site.

1) I'm glad HN doesn't allow gif images in the comments. If you are reading this you are probably not in the target group that might be willing to spend money on gif images.

Agreed and well met. At least for me, if the content generated is truly engaging and substantive enough, I gladly would pay a subscription fee. This may not work arguably for a gif site, but your point is well taken-because it's completely true and we see it daily.

I suppose to unpack my position a bit better than I have so far, if the sponsored content is truly relevant and engaging, I'd have far less things to complain about on this topic.

As it is, the majority of "sponsored content" I've seen hasn't really amounted to much that seems to fit within the ecosystem it exists in; it oft seems out of place and irrelevant.

But again, your point is well taken and I'm sure smarter people than I will continue working on this question and find ways to continue delivering content freeloaders like me love to consume :P
Yes. It fills me with worry that you even asked the question. How can you not be worried?!?

Participation trophy is not for special accomplishment, by definition. Everyone gets it and everyone knows everyone gets it. Winner won and is fully aware, got winners trophy with '1. place' written on it and prize. In case of more important competition, it would be something real non-symbolic that winner can actually use (like a game). Unless we are talking about competition of pre-schoolers and such in which case fretting over -anything- is royally dumb.

Thinking about it, the actual top prize is sport scholarship for college.

> Cos then doesn't it diminish the accomplishments of the winner(s)??

No, your accomplishment does not count for less because other people got stuff too. However, your accomplishment depends not just on winning, but also on how important/large the competition was. Being first at local school competition is less then being fourth at more important tournament - just like anywhere else in the world.

> Aren't photos and videos sufficient to capture happy memories of events?

Who cares? I guess that they have also some selfies in that room somewhere, however less visible. I just cant muster any anger or resentment in me over somebody else looking at shiny cheap trophy over .jpeg or over wearing t-shirt they gave out or whatever.

We are talking about community activities people organize because they want to do something for community, for club or because they want make kids to like sport they personally enjoy. It is not like they would be becoming rich on that (there are exceptions). I am not going to fret over their choice of giveaways. Nor start doom and gloom accusing them of destroying whole generation because of cheap shiny thing.

I kind of acknowledge that people who organize these things do more for community then those who don't do anything like that and only complain. For that matter, to lesser effect, I acknowledge that kids who participated did better choice then those who never participated in any event.

It's not different from Elm. My point was that Elm forces you to do it, there's no way around. With Javascript+Flow or TypeScript, you need discipline to end up with code that is as reliable as Elm.

Me, personally, I take short-cuts when I'm pressed for time, stressed, or in a bad mood (which happens more often than I'd like to admit). I can always improve the code later (which turns into never). In Elm, I can't cut corners (as easily). This makes me write better code using Elm, which in turn makes me happier.

You --can-- get the same experience with Javascript, but it does require more from you, the developer.

That was exactly my point. This piece by Matt Levine is relevant (https://www.bloomberg.com/view/articles/2017-04-24/board-vot...):

"On the other hand, you know, the buck has to stop somewhere. But where? The CEO is an obvious answer, and he is gone, but the buck is still moving. It might get the board. What's next? Should the shareholders fire themselves, for failing to catch the problem in time?

There is a traditional model in which the board of directors represents the shareholders: When management messes up, the board gets angry on behalf of the shareholders; their dudgeon becomes its dudgeon. The modern model is increasingly that the board is identified with management: When management messes up, the shareholders get angry at the board; their dudgeon turns against the board. The modern model might be more accurate in describing the relationship between many boards and managements. But you want a balance between dudgeon and continuity. If the managers mess up and the board gets rid of them, it can demand that the new managers fix the problem, and hold them accountable for doing it. But if you get rid of the board too, then who stays around to make sure the problem gets fixed?"

With respect I think that's a very myopic view. I don't think one should build their life around "problems" regardless but if you choose to do so there are two revolutions happening simultaneously.

Only until we provide energy storage as part of the power grid - which is coming. Capture surplus from solar/wind when the sun shines and the wind blows, dump it back into the grid when demand exceeds generation. This is doable with technology that's a century old.

We just haven't built it yet. We will.
There’s nothing misleading about the headline, as your TL;DR negates nothing in the headline nor the article. Making a bunch of assumptions, which later turn out to be wrong, does not make the headline misleading. If you’d like to argue that there is, in fact, no garbage patch at all, fine. But just because you assumed that you could see it, when in fact you can’t, doesn’t mean the headline is wrong.

The Nut Job 2: Nutty by Nature – Giveaway Enter
So, digging further, it seems the original press blurb from Case Western laid that trap about "millenials":https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2016/09/160913134442.h...

Previous studies show entitlement is on the rise -- so-called "millennials" see themselves as generally more entitled than previous generations;

It's really hard to say if the study says that, or the study author, or Case Western. If anyone wants to spend $11.95 to find out, let us know.

(But even though I'm not a millennial, I feel entitled enough that I refuse to pay for this :)
I was debating to buy the QC35 but was disappointed that the battery on these is not replaceable. Designed for obsolescence (why did they design it that way?). So I decided to go for the older QC25 version since that has the same noise-cancelling and is using AAA batteries instead. I don't really need the Bluetooth wireless aspect of it (though the QC25 can be converted to Bluetooth with a mod). Just a tip.
I don't see it as "taking notes from entertainment" but rather exploring the possibilities and expressing them using pop culture references. I can't disagree more with you that we shouldn't be considering outlandish fiction when we discuss future possibilities. The fact that the idea has entered into our collective psyche makes it a real possibility. That is the basis it has in reality. I don't think I need to cite any specific examples of AI behaving badly when you need only look in your pocket for examples of speculative fiction becoming reality.

This might be one of the best replies on HN that I have seen. Spot on.
I'm really excited about the Graal model and especially Graal.js.

Here's hoping for a world where Graal.js is released as open source and runs on an official JDK release! Then we can do all sorts of wizard magic with JS in the cloud, without running actual Node. I tell myself it could be any year now. I forget whether JDK 9 supports Graal and what the latest release date for 9 is; it's changed so many times. I know there was some indication that Graal.js would eventually be open-sourced, but that may have been taken back.

If anyone knows anything, I'd love an update.
Lisp Hackers – short interviews with 14 prominent Common Lisp hackers
True. Was for the cars. The other part holds for airplanes. By the way, I know of at least one case where a cpu algorithm steered the team on optimizing the resistance of a plane wing (or whatever needs to be optimized there, it was a conversation over beers). Example was that they never could have thought of that improvement themselves. Basically you had to be very stupid to try it as it couldn't work, until a spinoff (one of the millions of automated tries) actually did. CPUs I have no knowledge of.

imo it's worse that it's particles instead of complete plastic objects.

The tiny particles are near-impossible to clean, hard to identify (without testing), and are arguably more dangerous to the wildlife.

"There are a few orders of magnitude between "fizzled nuclear weapon" and a "nuclear bomb"."

In magnitude, certainly - but the process (explosion resulting from criticality) is the same.

Your notion that nuclear plant accidents do not cause explosions (they have) and that those explosions cannot be similar to atomic bombs (they can be) is incorrect.

I am not categorically opposed to nuclear power. I just think it's worth getting these things right - especially when the well known details of the highest profile nuclear accident are in opposition to your claim(s).
I've played around with doing some computation in WebGL, but it was rather tedious and difficult with my limited knowledge about the topic. It's possible, but you can't even rely on floating point texture to be available on all systems, especially mobile. And for anything more complicated, you probably need to be able to render to floating point textures, which is even more rare than support for plain floating point textures.

This only makes it more impressive when people do cool computational stuff in WebGL, but I'd wish there were some easier ways for non-experts in shader programming to do some calculations in WebGL.

I was did a contract at a local engineering shop a year ago. Tech writing.

The engineers were INCREDIBLE ASSHOLES.

Really cold and dickish, to me that is.

But to each other! JEEZ. Cliquish, abusive and just fucking mean. Total lord of the flies shit. Really toxic.

I had a serious talk with a couple of the more abused ones. Told them, "no, it isn't you, it's them. You need to quit."

I've seen some places that were a bit... diseased... but wow. Is this normal?
It seems like with any company that has a huge divide in terms of knowledge/skill/salaried jobs, i.e. Tesla engineers vs. factory workers or Lyft developers vs. drivers, there will always be a bias towards the smaller elite core.

I wonder how this will play out in the future as class divides between high skilled versus low skilled workers become more and more ever present within the oncoming wave of mass automation.

>NaN is meant to represent a non-sensical mathematical operation

This is not a very good explanation. NaN is used to represent a nonsensical value. By your explanation (1/0 === 1/0) should be true since they represent the same invalid opperation. The fact that NaN != NaN is not meant to mean anything, it is merely defined that way to prevent a class of bugs from occurring. Anyone not familiar with the definition is correct to be confused by it. I'd think if the spec was designed today, this special case (hack) wouldn't be there and we'd have exceptions in its place.

That said...

> I will never understand this romanticising of free speech on private platforms. Why would a service that cares about its members _ever_ implement free speech policies? That's just asking for assholes. If anything, popular services should have _more_ filtering and removal of asshole users.

Realistically, we need moderation based on community standards the same way the US handles obscenity. (i.e. A jury of users declare content unfit and boot it with a very substantial majority being required)

"Heavy filtering" tends to result in being an asshole or creating an echo chamber. Both are undesirable.
What they mean is DNT is not respected by the advertisers and hence supporting it is not leading anywhere. See this post https://www.reddit.com/r/announcements/comments/6qptzw/with_... , they suggest using an adblocker.

Yes in the sense that event sourcing systems typically have an "append only" data store which gives a full log over all state changes. That makes event sourcing particularly attractive for finance, gambling, etc.
