Which polyphenols in particular are you referring to out of interest?

As far as I understand there's plenty present in hops:

"although added in 100 times lesser quantity than malt, it can account for 30% of total beer polyphenols"

Requiring type annotations on all functions would make programming with higher order functions very laborious.

I'd agree if we're talking about top-level only, though.
As an ADD person who has to take it regularly, I can say that it can just easily focus you on replying to anything of interest on Hacker News... so no, doesn't work this way.

Great move Thailand! I expect the kingdom will be loose with these as it has been in allowing this class of foreigner use tourist, ed and extensions when they know full well what's really going on.

The previous system was essentially a checkpoint to allow for the removal of party goer types who have become more trouble than they're worth.
Depending on how deep down the rabbit hole you want to go, you could argue that e.g. using md5 could allow "an attacker" to submit e.g. an innocuous image that conflicts with another source file, causing it to be excluded from the build, causing a security hole to be opened.

But that's kinda silly.

I might argue in favor of (fast) cryptographic hash algorithms in general since they're fairly well understood / implemented / hardware accelerated / tend to have extremely "balanced" random output thus less likely to accidentally conflict... but that's about all I can think of.
Now if only they could realize this on mobile and allow attachments to an email without icloud LMAO

Your premise is supremely flawed. Men actually dominate the beauty industry's top ranks.[1] This perfectly supports the theory that men put up obstacles to women around higher-paying jobs.

Also note that the Bloomberg article is well supported. It provides data on changing attitudes as programming became a higher-value profession. It cites studies on programmer psychology. It details the specific discriminatory mechanisms by which men shifted the composition from mostly-female to mostly-male. It is worth reading all the way through with an open mind.

The patent describes not just "slotting in", but one way in particular. Note that if you were to "slot in" ANS into the current AV1 codebase, for example, it wouldn't actually read on this patent because AV1 codes its coefficients differently.
I like the optimism in this post, there's are lot of dismissive comments on here.

However I just don't think any of the ideas would ever really function. The idea of letting you pipe your Skype video feed to some video analysis tool would never happen

Similarly you'd never get application developers to open up their apps in such a way where you can extract/import content.
What do you mean by a 'fundamentally impure concept'?
The Windows registry is a database. Introduced in Windows 3.1 to handle COM classes, and later extended as the preferred config mechanism over .ini files.

If you are a Windows user you'll notice the problems that it introduces in terms of security and maintainance.
Files are much better in both aspects.

To me the underlying issue is not centralization into a single database, but the usability of advanced configuration. Every OS have multiple attempts to resolve that problem, which ended in more fragmentation for end users (i.e. macOS plist / registry / rc files / etc).
It's unlikely Preact infringes on a theoretical React patent. It's not a reverse-engineered reimplementation of React, but rather a library that happens to have a similar public API. APIs are not patentable, thus Preact's implementation is no more likely to infringe than Angular or Vue's.
I lost nearly everything in my life: my job, my apartment, my car, and very nearly my life from drugs and alcohol. I used for years with few consequences, but with the help of the dark net markets, got my hands on cheap and power drugs my body and mind could literally not handle. I came to a point in my life where I realized I had lost control over my ability to self-regulate consumption of intoxicating agents, and the consequences were dire.

I underwent a pretty radical change getting sober, moved to a different part of the city into a semi-supervised sober house, and started going to AA meetings. What I found there was a diverse group of people, with even more diverse problems (drugs, alcohol, violence, relationships) that had 1) accepted the problem was of their own making and 2) collectively decided that only through their own actions could they make themselves whole again. My AA group is a little unconventional in that we are extremely accepting of different types of addictions, and operate in an inner city area much different than my suburban upbringing. For me, AA is about living a stoic life, accepting what you can control, and disregarding what you cannot control. Seeing these same problems, across race, class, gender and geography was a pretty transcendental moment for me.

AA is just one part of what I'm doing to stay healthy: the other component, which in a lot of ways I trust more, is cognitive behavioral therapy, and group therapy. I think eventually more 'evidence based' group therapy systems will take over, but you just can't beat AA's model: people helping people via donated time and services.

When a new person walks into 'AA' with just a 'desire to stop drinking' their entire experience comes from the individuals, qualified only through their anecdotal experience in sobriety, that they meet. As a data scientist ready to defend AA, it used to be hard for me to rectify the fact that 1) AA is not effective as a prescribed intervention and 2) I'm in AA, and it works. How can I recommend a treatment when I know doing nothing in some cases is often better? Well, I don't know, and for me, AA is about staying sober, statistics be darned, I have something that works.

Finally, getting sober, for me, was a long, difficult, and extremely uncomfortable experience. If you are reading this, questioning if 'AA' is right for you, I would strongly implore you to attend a few different meetings in your area. Raise your hand, introduce yourself, and see what comes forth. AA will not save you, you will save you.
Bit of a stretch. PowerShell is used a ton, especially by Windows sysadmins/devops engineers, and is actively developed. Perhaps you've just got that impression because you haven't been following it with much interest.
Yup. It ain't ice cream if it doesn't melt. It's something else.
Why would it (legally or not) be Namecheap's job to curate the content?
What about the server the content is hosted on, its CDN, its DNS servers, its domain registry (not registrar), or so many other layers?

If a website that incites violence can be taken down because of a single violence-inciting remark, then people will just post violent remarks on their enemies websites and proceed to get them taken down. As an administrator, whether of a domain, social network, forum, or services on other layers of the Internet, it's unreasonable to be held responsible for every single thing done by your users. That doesn't mean you have to let them do anything, but when a problem occurs, the first step should not be to start taking down websites and servers, instead of looking for a more reasonable solution.
Why the Future Doesn't Need Us (from 2000)
Tabbing is not implemented exclusively by the WM, currently -- that's correct. But there exist window managers that handle tabbing. So, it's largely a matter of removing code. Lots of code. And then fixing more code that makes assumptions that it controls the drawing of the tabs.

And there's already the Xembed protocol for embedding windows in other windows, so it's technically possible to even move tabs from one application into another, with a coordinating dance. None of the changes that he wants really needs changes to X11 (although, as far as I know, it would be totally impossible under Wayland.)

It just needs someone to change applications to support it. I'd be interested to see an attempt.
Simplenote would be the canonical example.

Notational Velocity (Mac-only)

I moved to Quiver from Evernote, also Mac-only. The solo dev moved to Berlin a little over a year ago, and I would describe the app as minimally supported at this point.

I've been at this a long time, and have run the gamut from Evernote to tagged text files managed in Emacs with some custom macros, long before org-mode was even a gleam in the eye of Carsten Dominik. So I've seen them all, and as noted by many other folks, the rules boil down to one - must have a portable base storage format (preferably Plain Old Text) and/or solid import and export to some such portable storage format.

If it's commercial software, pricing will get stupid and/or bug-ridden features that add bloat and that I don't want are added to justify said pricing; the product/company is sold to someone who will do the above; the product/company dies. If it's open source, more or less the same, with the additional stage of becoming closed/proprietary/commercial, which then reduces to the first case. I kind of assume at this point that I will be moving to a different platform every 4 years or so.
It's controversial at best that atomic-level physics is non-deterministic.
I think Github could create a good nucleating community for federated networking. They could host a giant pod of Github users (could be the next venue following slashdot>kuro5hin>reddit>hn), and they could also create 1 click tooling for Github users to create pod for their own project communities.

Would be a good kickstarter for generating sufficient network effect value to use in the first place, evolving the platform software through real world tire kicking, and getting it out to the wider world.
Yes, there are other companies using Marko. Just to name a few, eBay, Lowes, Blizzard, Yahoo, Genesys, and gov.uk are using Marko for at least one project. Marko was created at eBay and eBay.com is built using Marko. There are some other European companies that are also heavily invested in Marko for their main UIs.

I'm not unfamiliar with Bookchin, but his politics are not to my personal taste

I really liked "The Ecology of Commerce" by Paul Hawken http://www.ecobooks.com/books/ecommerc.htm

To my mind it's well established that any political system that is out of harmony with Nature fails eventually. Contrary-wise, ecological sanity is a necessary (but perhaps not sufficient) condition for any political system to succeed.

I dream of buying a large piece of land and living more-or-less in Nature, but I also want to be able to call the sheriff or the ambulance for help if I really need them, so I can't be completely immune to political considerations.

As a thought experiment, I've tried to come up with a "Minimum Viable Civilization"...
> Inferring types of function parameters and results isn't as useful. Combined with generics, it gets really complicated.

I wonder why you think so? The inferred types in a language like Haskell or OCaml are almost always exactly what the programmer would have written. So long as a language has principle type inference, the worst case is that the inferred type is a bit more general than you expected.

> Also, whole-program type inference and separate compilation inherently conflict.

There is no conflict here, actually. All type variables in definitions exported from a module are generalizable. As such, no uses in other modules will further refine those types.

Thanks for the insightful answer. You're lucky that your girlfriend and some other people around you speak Spanish and I'm sure that must be super helpful.

Also like you I'm also planning to watch some actual videos, starting at children's video too but without any help (e.g. no subs).. maybe i'll miss 90% of it, but i think when you have all these crutches you stop putting that effort or maybe you miss the "aha" moment that is crucial in learning such new things.
Maybe it's because I'm familiar with IRC culture, this never was an issue for me, but when you are writing to an IRC channel you are not bothering anyone.
IRC clients don't usually have the habit of notifying you when someone writes in a channel.
So when one checks irc, one makes the conscious decision to wanting to talk to someone or see what's going on.
Usually not much, so any constructive contribution is welcome.

When there is an ongoing discussion, it's of course better to wait for it to come to a conclusion before introducing a new idea, but that's not unique to irc.

> It is also a damning indictment of the HN community. It is clear this post has suffered a campaign of down voting. Every comment that is positive toward the article, even just summarizing its content, has been downvoted. By the time I finished reading it it had disappeared off the front page entirely.

I don't know for sure, obviously, but based on the patterns I've casually observed on HN in the past, I suspect this article was flagged not because it promotes a male-blaming POV, but because the anti-male-blaming types seem to be winning the arguments in the comments.

And on topics as polarizing as this one, I suspect that every comment, on either side, gets some number of downvotes and upvotes. It's the countering effect of the upvotes that keep them from getting killed.

Personally, I upvote a lot more than I downvote, and I routinely upvote posts I disagree with if it appears they were made in good faith and some thought was put into them, but are nonetheless suffering a lot of downvotes.

Criminalizing Political Extremism for the Good of Civil Society
Carbon- and mineral-sharing between trees makes good game-theoretic sense. Any two neighbouring trees could easily be neighbours for upwards of a century, effecting and relying on the same soil; its an iterated "game" of extreme duration and no option of escape. Cooperation is the overwhelmingly better strategy in those kinds of situations.
You should also look at the pioneer plaque (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pioneer_plaque) which I think is pretty amazing. The concept of how do you begin communication with someone that you don't know is a tricky one. The cover of the record also has to provide a decoder for the record, also not trivial.

I've done a minor in Flow, the theory about getting in the zone. Very interesting. It manifests itself mostly when the challenge is hard enough and your knowledge is also good on the subject. Boring tasks won't trigger flow etc.
I like the article. He keeps it simple and the advice matches my experience. One nitpick though is that not being in touch with basic humanity is not the only reason for anger. Even the nicest people will eventually get angry if they are treated badly.
If you want to study user interfaces, look at programs which solve a hard problem - 3D animation and design programs. Learn Inventor or Maya or Blender.

Autodesk Inventor and Blender are at opposite ends of the "use the keyboard" range. In Inventor, you can do almost everything with the mouse except enter numbers and filenames. Blender has a 10-page list of "hotkeys". It's worth looking at how Inventor does input. You can change point of view while in the middle of selecting something. This is essential when working on detailed objects.

Scott Aaronson is not an expert on this matter, either, and, as far as I know, he hasn’t even seriously studied the subject as an amateur.

I didn’t say that being conservative negates the argument in the first article (and the second is irrelevant regardless of Alexander’s conservatism); I just pointed it out to note that the publication picked scientists who reflect their views rather than attempted to neutrally present the current state of affairs in the relevant social scholarship.
HN turns rabid, rightfully so. Even with so-called good motives, which are not even proven. And to be clear, in no way there can be a good motive here: their pledge is limited to Free and Open Source Software, its not even sure this pledge is binding, and EVEN if they really do limit their use of this patent (would have it been misattributed to Google by error), I don't think they would EVER pay the real inventor the value they gain from obtain from having it in their stockpile, even less if they do want to use it after another giant attack them.

Probably because your comments adds nothing to the discussion of the article or subject.
I had non melting ice cream in Shanghai, at a relatively overpriced/ touristy, outdoor seating restaurant. It felt like I was eating some weird synthesized product from a lab. It didn't taste very good either. There is no reason for us to go in this direction.

Edit - whelp, after insulting religious institutions on the Muzzmatch thread, I have been defaulted to the bottom of comment threads, despite upvotes. That's happened to all my comments since then, when they used to be defaulted at top and usually hung around there. Hopefully it's temporary? May be in for a karma winter.

Thanks for your comment, I'm in AA and I really like the aspect of the program that is living a life based on a practical philosophy of stoicism, i.e. the serenity prayer. I've been at a bottom too, which is an experience of depravity and pain that is often difficult for people to relate to.
Get paid now. Build a prototype. Test the viability of the product and the business partnership at the same time. If you're excited to double down on it all after initial experiments, then talk about a partnership / equity. (The conversation should start at split equally)

If you make a deal with some small portion of equity now, you set your price too soon. Making it harder to get equal partnership. Better to explore the relationship first with a easy and fair exchange of value (work for $).

Er, no.

Just making shit up and attributing it to your opponent is the opposite of "intellectually" rigorous. It maybe ideologically rigorous, but that's about it.

Show HN: PHP message queue interoperability group
The universal right to vote is likely among the few things preventing the citizenries from violently overthrowing their governments. A right to vote provides at least an illusory hope of changing a government from within. Take that away, and you'll be lighting a fuse leading straight to revolution (of a likely-violent nature).

UX guidelines keep evolving too and it will remain a business advantage to be able to provide a better experience (and quickly so) than your competitors. Who seriously like the crappy <select> or <input type="date"> desktop web browsers provide?
Who cares about the author and the ridiculous LGBTXYZ-genderqueer-whatever-this week's-stupid-acronym-is-now nonsense? It adds nothing, but actually detracts from the scientific content - in fact it's self indulgent and juvenile. I don't mind popular scientific writing when it's done with panache, Ben Goldacre for example, but this falls far short of that.

Mates with the author are you? Or the author herself?
Just noted the title change, thumbs-up on responding to feedback, one of the great things about HN.
Knowing more ways of tackling more problems makes you a better programmer. The more difference there is between what you do at home and what you do at work, the more you will learn. If at work you write C/C++/Java, learn Haskell at home. If you do GUIs at work, do low level coding at home. (And vice versa, of course.) Me, I play with SMT solvers at work and I build my own keyboards at home.
