This is the same company that gets tens of thousands of visitors a day to actual physical theme parks. Most companies would be happy to get that to their website, which is just one URL away. Disney Jr. has "commercials" showing kids visiting different parks for the first time, and of course having a blast. Toy stores are full of Disney toys, books, movies, games, and even clothes.

Ask HN: CS / Algorithms tutor in the Boston area
What is the best way to find a personal tutor for computer science topics, starting with algorithms but if good would move into other CS topics, in the Boston area? Self-taught engineer currently working as a full-time software engineer, no undergrad, and would simply like someone I could have access to in order to ask questions / get immediate feedback. Especially someone with an academic background and who keeps up to date with industry and can contextualize CS fundamentals with new technologies. If you have any leads let me know.

Attribution aside, I'd like to see the technique more widely known and practiced. The commenter was defending fish farming by favorably comparing it to cows, but ignored shellfish polycultures probably because they simply didn't know about them.

It appears to be mainly China that practices it widely. To the extent the Chinese aren't scaling it globally as a climate-friendly alternative to fish farming, they leave an opportunity for other players.

Which demographics are those?
According to http://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/vereinsg/__2.html (my translation, emphasis mine, legalese is hard):

(1) A Verein is regardless of the legal form any association formed voluntarily by a multitude of natural or legal persons over a longer timespan for a common purpose, subject to organized decision-making.

(2) Vereine are not

1. political parties as defined by article 21 of the Grundgesetz [essentially the constitution]

2. parliamentary groups of the Bundestag and and the parliaments of federated states

EDIT: banning a Verein is regulated by http://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/vereinsg/__3.html

(1) A Verein may only be treated as banned (article 9 par. 2 of the Grundgesetz), if the banning agency determines that its purpose or its actions run counter to the criminal law or that it is directed against the constitutional order or the ideal of peaceful exchange between the peoples [Gedanke der Völkerverständigung; let me know if you have a better translation] ; the declaration is to order the dissolution of the Verein (ban). The ban is usually to involve the seizure of [a bunch of stuff I'm too lazy to translate]

This is part of the reason why I prefer structural types (like in Typescript, Go and OCaml) over nominal types (like in most languages), as any object with the required methods is automatically an instance of such a type, instead of having to explicitly declare that it "is"/"extends"/"implements" that type.

I suspect that with dependent types, nominal types are actually a degenerate type of dependent structural type: a dependent pair of a type and a proof that a string 'name' field has some particular value, or that a list<string> 'implements' field contains some particular string (the interface name).

So first, tax is marginal. Only the amount above a tax bracket is taxed at the higher rate.

> So going to 250k seems like a jump, but it's going to have a much less increment on your lifestyle.

Second, the difference between 200k and 250k is that your adjusted gross income legally allows you to participate in private equity investments without you having to get an accountant to lie for you.

So therefore, instead of having to spend 8 years of your life just to get the OPTION of buying $4,000 worth of the two startups you were stuck working at, you can get into the deal flow for any of the trendiest and flashiest companies with the biggest upwards trajectory. Or even better, invest in a VC fund that does this better than you. You can finally stop lying to your company's cofounders about all the passion you have for their non-sensical company just so you can eek out another 1/48th of your option while getting another month of React under your belt for the next move.

There's really no reason to rationalize if you are already that close. You are playing the money game or else you would have used the exact same rationale to not pursue the salary increase from $50k to anything above $75k in whatever suburb or regional support city that you came from. Its only financial engineering from here on and you are in a position to create generational wealth.

You are close to an exemption from the income taxes that make 20% increases in your comp demotivational, when your long term capital gains start rolling in.

You are close to an exemption from the socioeconomic problems of your costly urban environment.

You are close to an exemption from the class system preventing you from obtaining the cheapest and most lucrative investments.

This is about honesty.

The association part is a red herring. Of course a group of administrators is an association, just like CNN also happens to be (part of) a company. The important thing he is saying is that they treat them as if they weren't also a news outlet.

> more "open to contributions"

Yes - and Linus wasn't involved in most of them (since he delegated subtrees) which makes your "despite having a dickbag in charge" completely irrelevant.

But you'll note I specifically said "more open [...] than the BSDs" - it wasn't an absolute. The Linux kernel is very much not open to contributions per se -but- compared with the *BSDs etc. it is a paragon of welcome.

> exclude perfectly capable programmers just because they communicate aggressively

Being able to communicate effectively - and that generally excludes "aggressively" - is an important part of being a capable (and better) programmer.

What?

> you have to consider that being overly-inclusive opens the doors to bike-shedding

Ironic that you call it "bike-shedding" when that was coined from a project that wasn't "overly-inclusive". Almost as if your link between the two is fanciful nonsense.

It's clear your only argument is "I don't like inclusivity" and that's fine - you're on the wrong side of history and doomed to fail.

"In the Walmart test, food shipments were tracked and digitally recorded via a blockchain. (Yiannas’s team’s manual search was the “control.”) From the start of their journey at the farm, pallets of mangoes were tagged with numeric identifiers.

How is this different from some kind of RFID tracking system? Still trying to understand the value add of blockchain in this example.

We need ID to vote in Ireland (in theory; it's spot-checked), but the range of things accepted as ID are much greater. In particular, a debit or credit card can be used, as can a social security card. Since basically everyone either has a job (and thus needs a bank account) or draws some sort of social welfare, or both, nearly everyone has one of these anyway.

Most developed countries just have a mandatory ID card, of course.

The US states requiring ID would be much less worrying if they would accept something that everyone has. It's the selectiveness about forms of ID that makes the motives clear...

1. The transfer is immediately registered as a transaction on your account statement overview.

2. Yes, disputes would have to be handled by contacting your bank. I don't know the exact possibilities here, but would notice many complain about Paypal's polices too.

3. Yes, but don't see why moving customers away from other payment platforms to the online would be bad business for them.

4. Yes, no mobile. There are some constrains to it.

5. It is essentially just a manual that get verified by a third party. In principle you could pay online shops manually, but the problem is that the shop owner would have to manually verify it, that is reading through his account statements. This Chrome extension does exactly this.

6. To integrate you need to make sure the bank offers CSV data export with following the CAMT format (or something similar). This is required by the bank SEPA agreement in EU.

To verify a payment I reckon you need the following: amount, currency, account number and a token as payee note, see http://i.imgur.com/m1ltZNg.png

The unique token is generated by my server. Naturally there will have to be some testing with the different online banks.

I have done many (failed) projects before so I am likewise critical.

Presto (the old Opera engine) had a mode called "delayed script execution" which would speculate even harder than the gecko/servo approach. As I understand it — which might well be incorrectly — it would continue treebuilding after a script tag, and then if the script ran a document.write it would check if it produced something that wouldn't affect subsequent tokenisation (or, presumably alter the treebuilding state) and if so patch the tree in-place rather than throwing it away and restarting.

It was never debugged enough to be turned on on desktop, but I think it was considered useful enough to ship on mobile in the days when mobile performance was significantly worse than it is today. In particular, on a network where request latency is high having to pause treebuilding for scripts to download can significantly increase the time until it's possible to paint anything at all on the screen.

Can you elaborate on this?

Integer a = new Integer(2);
Integer b = a;

Here a == b and no comparison by value.

Integer c = new Integer(2);

Then a != c but a.equals(c) (in Java). My point is that I do not agree with that and would like to have a == c, which would be the case if '==' was implemented using comparison by value.
First, try to optimize your Python. It's unexpected what you can do with it. E.G: slicing assignment is crazy fast, removing calls and lookups goes a long way, using built-ins + generators + @lru_cache + slicing wins a lot, etc. Also Python 3.6 is faster, so upgrading is nice.

Then, you try pypy. It may very well run your code 10 times faster with no work on your part.

If you can't or the result is not as good as expected, you can start using EXISTING compiled extensions. numpy, uvloop, ujson, etc.

After that, and only now, should you think about a rewrite. Numba for number related code, cython for classic hot paths or nuikta for the entire app: they can turn Python code into compiled code, and will prevent a rewrite in a low level tech.

If all of that failed, congratulation, you are part of the 0.00001%.

So rewriting bottlenecks in a compiled language is a good option. C or C++ will do. But remember you can do it in Rust too!

Sanitize your endpoint to ensure that both a and b are within INT_MIN/2 to INT_MAX/2.

After all, you didn't pick INT_MIN; the entire point of a 32-bit integer or a 64-bit integer is that it's more than enough for reasonable purposes. It's not based on a physical constant or anything, it's just convenient and large. If you need a specific number of bits for your purposes that's more than that, use a u128 extension or a bigint type.
