My experience has been similar in the past. In more recent times I've seen numerous products rewritten from scratch by completely new teams on different continents - the mindset being that they would do things "properly" - only to encounter all the problems that the original teams had to deal with, and re-implement the same mistakes, but in a different language. In one case, the new team quit to a man ( and obviously, the old team were nolonger around either ), resulting in the loss of two complete product implementations, and all the domain and implementation knowledge.
It is unfair if we're talking about terrorism, because prison murders are not terrorism.

If we're going to talk about murders in a more general sense, you have to start looking at populations and then note that whites in the US are far, far more prevalent than Muslims.
Who gets to determine that? The abortion debate is essentially about both sides claiming the other is taking away a persons rights. On one side it's bodily autonomy on the other right to life (and maybe some religious freeeddom too).

The equivalence the gp is making is between businesses, not clients. Businesses obviously are accountable to someone if they must serve gay people. It has already been pointed out that gays are a protected class, but deliberately(?) missing people's points has never helped a cause.

Originally my mom had the 11" but it was way too small for her eyes and has since upgraded to the HP 14" which is far better. While I encouraged her to get it to reduce her risk of spam and viruses.. she still manages to get a "toolbar virus" or "extension virus" every once in a while.

I believe she had her Chromebook for 4 or 5 years before it just died... and she ended up buying another one. Can't really complain.. 4-5 years for a laptop that is used everyday is pretty good. I tend tog o through 1 every 2-3 years. But love it for its speed.
It's critical to draw the line at clear action. The FBI doesn't arrest people for declarating jihad, it arrests them for attempting to detonate fake bombs.

Similarly, it should be legal for these fascist assholes to spew their garbage, but they should be locked up as soon as they demonstrate clear intent to hurt someone.
Great and useful work. Bootstrap 4 is still in beta, do you plan to continue support, taking into a count possible api changes?
The whole Gamergate shitfest was disallowed on /v/ because it constantly hijacked the board, had tangential relevance in most cases, and the legal implications weren't worth supporting a largely off-topic subject. Having five pages of threads on a single subject would pretty much never be allowed on any board (save /b/), especially if that subject focused on a holy war between two radical elements.

/j/ was temporarily accessible through a bug and IRC chatlogs are widely available. The moderation on 4chan is very much active, it's just not compelled to fast and hard action for anything save child porn or an impending murder. Much of the hooliganism is largely explicitly allowed, at least according to the info currently available to us.
I don't recall ISIS claiming that Cloudflare support their ideology.
Well, concrete is solid and water is liquid.

I know it sounds obvious, but have you ever seen in your life a plastic flask or tank or jerry can that after several years leaked?

It is of course doable, but how durable will it be?

Imagine the kind of vibrations and shocks a jerry can used as a counterbalancing device in a relatively hot environment needs to bear.

A good, environment-friendly idea would be to make the concrete counterbalances a "standard" (in size and holes/bolting) and re-use them.

Nowadays in most countries (excluded the developing ones) the market for washing machine is almost exclusively a replacement one.

You get the new washing machine (without counterbalance) and you bolt on it the one from the old machine, and you save also the cost of the plastic water container.
The whitelist is the problem (because it's white of course), so make it a blacklist instead.
My metric for projects is that if I'm not returning near-term value at least double my billing rate, it's probably not worth doing.

If you are, the difference between 2.2x, double, and 1.8x is pretty negligible - non zero, for sure, but not worth the additional 20% effort to minimize variance.

If you aren't, as he says, no amount of diligence will fix it, because it's simply the wrong project.

It's the classic penny-wise pound-foolish.

So by my conclusion, many of the 'project management' activities that people do are at best wasteful or indeed actively harmful.

How to Build a “Practice” Business and Make a Few Thousand Bucks Online
WHat would the US be expected to do? If they try to “help,” they get criticized for being imperialists, if they don’t help, it’s because of a CIA conspiracy.

Should the U.S. get involved more with Turkey? How about sanctioning Mexico for journalists being killed? Perhaps they should sanction Germany for arresting someone for exercising free speech (despite it being against German law.) Maybe Pakistan for tolerating revenge rapes order by local councils. There is a lot of nastiness in the world, yet for the U.S. it’s damned if you do, damned if you don’t.

Why doesn’t Europe do something about Thailand if we are suggesting that a foreign power should “do” something?

Alright, I'll gladly concede that I did not know that, but I strongly disagree that my comparisons you neglected are "irrelevant". I think that's the key discriminator.

The view on stoning in Bangladesh could be religious, but it could also be cultural, as it's not equal elsewhere where practicing muslims reside.

And if it, as I posit, isn't a core tenet of the religion, and if it is, as I posit, one in nazism, it can't be solved through cultural tolerance.
That really sucks.

I just asked my brother if he can access scihub via his university's network. He checked and said he can.

He told me his lecturer told all the students about scihub, and they should use it if they can't access a paper via the university's resources. But the university itself is not allowed to use scihub.

> After they've passed customs.

I specifically said that is not the case, and BCP say that is not the case, and Congress do not say that is the case. (See U.S. v. Hernandez-Lopez, where 50 miles after passing through customs was still sufficient to allow for detainment by border patrol.)

It is an expectation of most travelers, but it is patently false.

> Again, I never said I agree with any of this.

Neither have I. The law is ambiguous, and practically without restraint. Even when there is restraint, the BCP regularly are not aware, and violate it.
And the answer is... cheap computing power. If the plastic balance isn't full or leaks out, the spin cycle becomes extremely dangerous. Traditionally we used a system that was not prone to this kind of failure, but now that the cycle is computer controlled and we have cheap accelerometers we can use a more complicated but lighter alternative safely.
I don't think you still understand. Political choices can change, sexual orientation/race/color of skin doesn't.
Because you can't operate systems as big as the internet on a case by case basis. People are concerned that this action could lead to other, more noble, speech being suppressed by corporations like cloudflare.

I'm happy they're offline for the moment, but I wish it was because of a court order focused on specific actions (eg incitement of specific violence) rather than a single person's disapproval of their (really quite terrible) message.

The goal of this project is to make progress in reinforcement learning. Having an AI plan and learn strategies to play a game. This is a separate problem from machine vision, which is being worked on by tons of other people. Adding a machine vision requirement wouldn't help them with their goal and would take 100x more computing resources.

OpenAI could probably afford to do it, but it no smaller researchers or hobbyists would be able to compete.
On the contrary orgs like Amnesty are so focused on putting the spotlight on other countries that they miss the stuff happening right under their noses both in the UK and here.

3 Useful UX Workshops to Get Your Team on the Same Page
You are really super slow on the uptake, reading comprehension. Again, once again, over again, yet again, one more time, this time just for you, my writing is fine. Just fine. Nothing wrong with it.

Instead of anything wrong, I presented a very well informed, well documented, well reasoned, well explained, serious, practical solution to a really big problem in the OP -- how to get good educational results for disadvantaged kids. Maybe if I repeated that statement 5000 more times, 1000 different ways finally your bone headed reading comprehension and arrogance would finally begin to get it.

My original post at

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15022458

actually WAS short. No one but no one here understood it. So, I gave a longer post, repeating over and over the simple, central point. Finally one reader began to understand but not very well. Then you come along, also don't understand, and piss on my leg and want me to think it's raining.

For what I posted, you don't get it. I just gave an innovative, powerful solution to part of the nasty problem in the OP, and you just flatly didn't get it. So, with your slow comprehension, I didn't write too much; I wrote too little. You needed much more.

In the future I suggest you avoid anything I post. My posts are way over your head, and I'm not often going to stoop and bend to repeat, explain over and over, different ways so that people like you can understand.

You can't understand what I wrote or most of what I write.

You CAN understand? Nope, I don't believe you. To see, let me see your solutions to any three of the exercises I listed in my first post at

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15022458

I'll return in 24 hours and grade your results. Bet: From just your own work, you can't work even one of the exercises.

Uh, I'll make it easier: For the exercise in infinite differentiability, you are welcome to get all the help you can find in 24 hours. Use the Internet. Ask math profs. Go for it! Let's see your really good abilities!

It's a washing machine, it needs to be hooked up to a pressurized water pipe anyways. Just hook up the tank (before the valve) and it should always be completely full.
>while all organization accounts are end-to-end encrypted, it is still possible for organization admins to access the emails of other organization users. Thus, organizational oversight and management is still possible, even with end-to-end encryption. Furthermore, administrative read permissions are also granted or revoked automatically when admin users are created or demoted.

I wonder how can they provide this without either storing encryption keys on their servers or reencrypting (client-side!) all email during such events.
The only thing I still don't get: if there is a contract for unlimited access, why aren't unis setting up mirrors locally?

Concrete weighs 2.5 as much per given volume 150 vs 62 pounds per cubic foot. So, there are significant trade offs involved.

Also, adding a sealed water container creates a few more ways for these things to break down which was a larger concern when washing machines lasted ~5x as long.
What if I consider infant/child circumcision mutilation? Jews and Muslims do this for religious reasons. Would it be therefore okay for me to bar them from service?

What if I'm an American Christian and think abortion is literally murder? Would it be therefore okay for me to ban customers who identify themselves as Pro-Choice?

Or if I consider the Catholic church a criminal organisation for enabling systematic child abuse? Does that mean I can ban Catholics?

If you say no, what about white supremacists who merely spread the idea that whites are superior but don't encourage violence against other races? If the KKK formally promised to never commit any violent acts again and leave POC alone but continue preaching racial superiority and claiming the US as a white nation?

This is a pretty slippery slope you're arguing.

Generally agree. Potential distinction between content consumer and content producer though. E.g. it might be a right to consume electricity, but is it a right to produce it, say.. with solar panels?

Will look into this on my next project
The biggest recurring issue I have with my managers over the last twenty years is their need to add unnecessary complexity to projects. I think a good manager stays out of the way and just monitors employees for any obstructions that are preventing them from meeting their goals. Yet, my experience is that when a manager sits in on a project meeting, they can't help but start giving input on the project itself, adding complexity to defined business rules or adding obscure use cases to the system. Too many managers can't help but dominate meetings because their dominant personalities is how they became managers in the first place.

The worst is when you get two or more managers attending the same meeting. Then nothing will get done as they eat up all of the meeting time arguing about business rules, magnifying the complexity of the system until you end up with some Rube Goldberg chain of logic that they will completely forget minutes after they've left the meeting. A good manager knows to trust their employees and only intervenes to make sure those employees have the resources they need to do their jobs. The most effective managers are humble and respect the expertise of the experts they hire.

Can you tell me why? Sometimes, asking a client for 50k instead of 80k with a "spin-off" agreement can pay to both parties. The client can get long-term support with new features without the need to pay for it.

MC sampling is an essential tool (when used together with simulation and neural nets). Don't dismiss it yet, it has a lot to offer to deep learning. For example, if you don't have enough data, you can create it by brute forcing / simulation.

No. Because the bot can choose the next action at the end of the 200ms, with all the information available then, not at the start.

But that is not unfair. Humans receive plenty of curriculum training as well, we're not supposed to figure out the world by bumping into walls. Even in Dota2, the top players learned from observing each other how to deal with the bot. In fact, efficient retraining to include new strategies on the spot would be a very human-like learning ability.

How to generate 3,000 warm leads with the help of an academy
Can you back up your opinion with links?
Pages are now over 3 MB in size on average [1]. Just 5 years ago (already post-iphone) they were 800 KB. This mirrors my experience, where the mobile web feels slower despite my phone and connection being much faster. It seems web developers have stopped caring at all about performance.

If you look at where the bloat went, it's mostly three things:

- Images ballooned in size by a megabyte (without adding much extra requests)

Most likely culprits are retina class graphics and "hero graphic" designs.

- Javascript sizes and number of requests doubled

Corresponds to a shift from jquery + some manually added plugins to npm / webpack pipelines and using a massive amount of (indirect) dependencies.

- video

Now that flash has disappeared, it got replaced by auto-playing video, which is even worse as far as page bloat is concerned.
