Buprenorphine is not the 'generic' version of fentanyl. Fentanyl is the generic name for various brand-name medications such as Sublimaze. Buprenorphine is the generic name for Suboxone, Butrans, etc., and is an entirely different medication used for different purposes from fentanyl.

This article gets two big things wrong:

1) Amazon's lack of profits appears to be due to reinvestment back into the business, not because the margins are non-existent. If the margins weren't there, there would be no money to invest in R&D.

2) The author never comments on the issue of double taxing corporate profits. Is it really the spirit of the tax code that $1 in profits earned by a business should really yield $0.48 to the federal government? The best way to address the author's concern is to put the effective corporate tax rate (35% corp income + 20% dividend) more in line with capital gains rates.

TCP/IP started going global in the mid-1980s. If you consider Bitcoin to be just the first working example of a digital currency protocol, then a better analogy might even be the first packet switching protocols in the 1960s.

Bitcoin has barely changed, but the cryptocurrency ecosystem as a whole has changed massively, and shows no sign of stopping.

> The real value of XHTML was that it could be generated from domain-specific XML using XSLT. So your data could be served as machine readable XML in a standard, versioned schema particular to the application or document publisher, and then converted into an XHTML webpage by the browser.

Ok, now I understand all the buzz around XHTML at the time I was a student, and why so many people kept talking about XSLT. I just never saw anybody pointing it before, and for something that interesting I have no idea how come people weren't talking about it everywhere.

One huge difference is the workflow you have in Clojure. REPL driven development is an experience unique to Lisps. When you're working with Clojure, any code can be run in the context of the live app straight from the editor as you write it. This is an amazing experience and very mind expanding in what a development process can look like.

Also, anybody who wants to try FP style programming, but isn't interested in static typing is much better off with Clojure. Type systems in languages like Haskell and Idris add a lot of complexity and mental overhead that's not present in a dynamic language.

Because on most modern CPUs, clock frequency is extremely unstable: Turbo Boost, SpeedStep, Cool'n'Quiet, etc. These features make TSC not suitable for time measures.

Clojure is definitely more practical, being much more widely used in production and running on the JVM (which provides access to a huge array of Java libs).

Scheme is simpler though, and probably more approachable for a beginner. The hosted nature of Clojure means you'll need a decent understanding of the underlying JVM to understand errors--the first time you get a stack trace you're going to seriously question your choice. Also Clojure's syntax is more complicated (but really, not at all complicated compared to Java, C#, Python, etc.).

You should be able to pick up Clojure pretty quickly if you're already familiar with Scheme, the programming style is pretty similar.
I am pretty sure he was referring to Buzzfeed's clickbait titles. They are pretty famous for it so it's a fair comparison.
While it is an inspiration to see how far this Dad would go to have his daughter have a place to be included in play safely, it is equally sad. Sad that in this day and age kids and adults with disabilities are still excluded in parks, on rides, at events because of access or tolerance.

Things are changing, slowly, but they are changing. Inclusion typically means if you want your child included you have to develop and coach the bowling league or ball team for individuals with disabilities. Pro baseball player David Price is the exception and put his money where his heart is. He was a major contributor to an newly built and now open accessible play park in his hometown. Kudos to Mr. Price for giving everyone who wants to play baseball or play on a swing in his hometown a place to do that.

I once had a gentleman tell me after a car accident that resulted in physical disabilities that resulted in his permanent use of a wheelchair, that access is defined as:

Do you want your nursing home to be accessible by automatic door or a manual door. Sad.
I'm not really in the tech scene but often wondered just this; Are there really a lot of entrepreneurs with a genuine goal of creating a 1B company? From the venture capitalists perspective of course that makes sense but most engineers I know really just want to design products and have control over the direction of the company. Seems much easier if your content with a 25m (or even less depending on how many partners) company.

I mean I can understand you need a 1B company if your going to be building rockets or autonomous cars but I would imagine this doesn't apply to 99% of founders.
Your model can still be disfunctional even if it is trainer on "facts and data". No model has 100 accuracy, and it's easy to make a mistake when modeling and end up with unexpected issues (for example image recognition systems not working well with people of colour because of either a bias in the dataset, or non-robust methods)

Vermont Medical School Says Goodbye to Lectures
"The president has taken particular aim at the H-1B visa program, under which the government admits 85,000 highly skilled foreign workers every year, most of them in the tech field.

Mr. Trump says businesses use the program to avoid hiring higher-paid Americans, and his executive order instructed the agencies to ensure that visas were awarded to the most skilled, best-paid immigrant workers.

Disney, Toys “R” Us, Southern California Edison and New York Life are among the companies that have laid off American tech workers who first were asked to train their replacements — tech workers from low-wage countries like India brought in on temporary visas. In some cases, the jobs themselves went back home with the new workers."

This is evidence that Trump cares about workers like readers of HN get fair wages and that is high tech leaders that are trying to depress wages.

NYT, WaPo, MSM in general attempt to paint Trump as the "bad guy" but his actions suggest otherwise. Yet, these actions rarely get directly reported in MSM. For example, these quotes should have been at the beginning of an article discussing Trump's efforts to help American get fair wages and to not have to suffer competition from Visa abuse.

Zilla Slab: A common language through a shared font
Most of small to mid sized applications are really happy running on VPS like Linode or Digital Ocean, especially if we are talking about CRUD apps.

There are multiple pros of those setups:

1. They are cheap: $10-$20/month will be ok for smallish scale/b2b application. (You can always add more nodes later if you want).

2. As your application grows, it is much easier to migrate to another VPS or dedicated HW.

3. It is much easier to switch to cloud platform like AWS than trying to change provider or migrate into your hardware. Platform lock is real.

I do hear that managing your own servers is hard, but you can totally do it after reading couple of articles or paying couple hundred dollars to some competent sysadmin.

So this seems like a deflection to me. As I've said before, my dad thought his non-hodgkins lymphoma was due to roundup and you shouted me down saying glyphosate hasn't been shown to cause cancer (though there are certainly a bunch of people who disagree with that).

The real point is that it is not glyphosate we're talking about, it's roundup. And it would appear that the cocktail of whatever makes up roundup may not be fine. So please address that, not glyphosate.
Frankly cloud providers have become the default way to run startups and small to medium-sized companies but frankly they're significantly expensive. You do get about a year of runway, which may make sense if you're able to close a VC funding round, but frankly you can spend 10-20k/year vs most startups that are spending 100k+/year at their cloud provider
Is there something about clj's repl that makes it any different from ghci's?
I personally don't view Scala as a FP language, it's a FP/OO hybrid. It's not opinionated in that regard, and a lot of code in it is written in traditional OO style or a mix of the two.

Erlang is another widely used functional language, but it's not very widely used outside the telecom niche. Clojure has the advantage of running on the JVM, and makes it easy to target a much wider range of domains.

Absolutely agree. However there is a "perfect language" for every programmer to learn, depending on their background and spare bandwidth. For many programmers the jump from their primary language to Haskell or others is too high, not only in terms of complexity but also utility.
Several colleagues of mine are picking up new languages right now and a common criteria is they want to build something tangible/useful within a limited time. Having access to the JVM and third party libraries they already know is certainly a plus.

TLS Configuration: Cipher Suites and Protocols
I've learned to love the parentheses, because they embody what is so nice about lisps (and particularly Clojure)--inside the parentheses is a little nugget of functionality that generally stands on its own. No syntactic tricks, the only "trick" is the macro system, but it's so straightforward that I'm not sure I'd call it a "trick".

The other immediate barrier is when Clojure barfs an ugly stack trace. I've heard that 1.9 will address that with core.spec, but I haven't explored it yet.
I use PGP every day. Who messages me, how often, and at what times, is still private information and I should have a say in where and how that happens. My PGP-encrypted conversations tend to be much more sensitive than any other medium I use.

The cryptography is almost certainly not broken. That does not mean it won't be broken in the future. I would have the same concern if my TLS-encrypted traffic was being saved. If my ISP was saving TLS traffic or my XMPP provider (the one that I don't host, anyway) was saving OTR conversations, I would be equally concerned.

Even worse, actually. TLS (usually, nowadays) and OTR both employ forward secrecy. PGP does not, at least traditionally.

> Really valuable content usually comes in batches, points directly to other valuable content (i.e. good things tend to discuss and cite other good things), and/or is long form.

Bibliographies are highly underrated. Find a good book? Look to it's references for really good sources of information. Fuck, that's one of my content discovery routines: bibliographies.

> There's no need to look for valuable content every day, or even every week. It might be entertaining, but it's not a good use of time. Exceptions for people who have to keep up with news-cycle garbage and up-to-the-minute trends, of course. Those poor souls.

I can't second this enough, and I feel no one has to keep up with the transient data that wastes so much time and energy. I've cut out TV, newspapers, magazines, twitter, podcasts, and all sorts of wastes of time and worry; I haven't missed it. The last addictions I haven't been able to kick are things like HN and certain other websites. HN I still get the occasional value from, but I honestly feel depressed after wasting time online, and I'm no better informed. I would argue no one is better informed by transient data - most people I ask can't remember something they learned from transient data from two weeks ago, and even if they can, it's valueless data.

You are correct sir. I own $10,00 in stock. per reg T, I can borrow $5,000 against it. Now the stock goes on an Apple/Amazon like tear and it's worth $1,000,000. Now I can borrow up to $500,000 against it--that's a lot of rent groceries.

The above assumes you control the shares and they are pledgeable as collateral. It is not easy, but doable, to borrow against RSU's. i.e. you probably need a high net worth/private banker relationship.
It's something that you need to actively work on, just like automated tests. It also helps if you have someone who has written __good__ documentation before. The kind that people actually reference every few months.

The type system is only one part of a programming language. You can, quite reasonably, have two languages with exactly the same type system that wind up with vastly different ways of programming them due to what you're given as primitives/the standard library.

Programs aren't usually directly portable between languages primarily for that reason - the language designers optimise for a specific way they want their language to be used, then everyone else follows, and eventually you're going against an entire ecosystem if you want to do something different.
This is absolutely true, and to be expected from the fact that the inheritance splits like a tree. For one thing both we and salmon have bones, sharks only have cartilage.

But we're more closely related to sharks than either is to the jawless fishes like the hagfish. The hagfish are just plain weird.

right, but technically so is Clojure - you can get your hands dirty and mutable with relative ease.

Scala's problem is that they marketed it as "we're almost java - you can just sprinkle some functionalness on your code as you go and you'll be fine".

> core.spec makes it more formal and verifiable. This is very useful when working with data, and is another example of where Clojure's pragmatism shines; the language is dynamic in its core, but when you need static typing - it's there, optionally

Um no. Spec is not static typing, it does runtime checks. And core.typed is currently being rewritten and is not compatible with current version of Clojure.

Unfortunately it asked for me to approve the new device from an existing one, and didn't offer the option to use my yubikey instead.

I have since emailed support, and they clarified that they don't support yubikeys as the auth layer since there aren't enough users with them for them to justify this work, which is understandable, but I have to say it was pretty confusing.
