"Bash on Windows" is pretty misleading - it's really a Linux kernel translator. You can use (supported) three distros, and as long as your Linux software doesn't use any non-translated APIs, it will Just Work.

Imagine if you did have the two classes in an endurance race, with no prize money for the doped up classes. Imagine in cycling if there was Lance and co doing the Tour we know and then another clean race, much like in Learning Mans with motor sport. Lance and co would be the LMP class.

As per motor sport it is obvious what class a car is in, there is no pretending to be the other class.

The testing would be more part of signing up to a given class, everyone would know what everyone was taking whether that be nothing or everything. Much like how in Motorsport you know cylinder count, oil used and so on.

What I consider as "interesting" is the fact that much more research (at least if you look at HN headlines/posts) goes into "Intel ME" vs. "AMD Secure Processor" (formerly known as "AMD PSP" ("Platform Security Processor")). I really don't want to badmouth this important research on "Intel ME", but I am a little bit confused from this asymmetry.

>Ok, so you have indeed changed syntax. Saying that Haskell/ML-style function application syntax is consistent with juxtaposition for multiplication is in no way inconsistent with anything I have said so far. Remember, you used "gravitationalAttraction(mass1, mass2, radius)" in your very first example, and I am speaking to the difficulties getting that example to work.

That's the same syntax. f x. x is a tuple.

>When I said "it is at odds with juxtaposition for multiplication," I meant "having Haskell/ML-style function application along with classical function application notation", given your original example.

But again, it isn't.

f(x, y, z) is just f applied to the tuple (x, y, z) in ML.

>That's not to say we can't come to see Haskell/ML-style function application as natural, but it is not yet the mathematical syntax people learn in school.

It really is exactly the same notation.

>It is extremely rare to see the functions returned by functions being used immediately as functions.

You really think so? I have seen a lot of mathematics in my time and I really disagree with this claim.

>In abstract algebra, it's common to see fgx to mean f(g(x)) when f,g are in a ring R and x is in an R-module. With Rtimes being the multiplication in R and App being application, fgx is interpreted as both App(Rtimes(f,g),x) and App(f,App(g,x)), since they must be equal. Mathematicians would be surprised at the interpretation App(App(f,g),x).

fgx is just terrible notation. I've never seen it. I've seen (f o g)(x). I've seen f(g(x)). I've not ever seen fgx.

>Yes, you can make consistent systems where it is unreasonable, but that doesn't mean that there is no system in which it can be a reasonable interpretation. I didn't just make that interpretation up: things like e^A where A is a square matrix come up frequently in the study of differential equations, and it is interpreted by substituting A into a power series for e^x.

Not really. That's the definition of exp(A). That doesn't mean that you just substitute A into the power series for e^x and then try to parse that.

I found similarly bogus ratings issues with both Booking.com and TripAdvisor.

Had I taken a closer look at the patterns of reviews (as I've learned to do with Yelp), I would have realized the preponderance of fakes. Ratings are all over the place. Numeric scores are inconsistent with comments. Vast majority of 8+ reviews are one-time reviewers, and a bad review is immediately followed by multiple high reviews the same week.

In the Booking.com case, the primary photo is phony (a different property -- room is wrong configuration). Many reviews refer to nonexistent features. The few negative reviews paralleled my experience very well (this place was a D-I-V-E, by far the worst I've stayed in anywhere in North America).
A lot of that was water. Of course AAS has a ton of potential and can put help you put on muscle like no other but there are so many lifters who go on a cycle put on 10 kg then when they go off they lose 6 of those kilos fast; get unmotivated because their natural testosterone is pretty low (even with pct) and then half ass their diet and training for a while and then they are almost back where they started. But with potentially less hair on their head, gyno and acne scars if they are prone to it.

Of course that is not true for all but when evaluating always ask someone a couple of months after the cycle and not during it because at that time they are kings.
I like it but it makes it hard to take R as a serious programming language (thankfully it's not in standard R) because where else would you actually use a coding pattern like:

a = "foo"
a = "bar"

reusing variables is silly.

ICO's of some form are unquestionably the future of raising capital for most tech companies up to a certain size (at least until ICO investors can consistently put in $1bil+). I'm saying this as someone who is living the ICO experience (https://airtoken.com). Compared to traditional angel / VC raising, this is hands down the best use case for blockchain so far. VC's and angel groups will become pre-sale stakers and stamps of approval for companies to boost the ICO, but the days of entrepreneurs spending months traveling around wining and dining the richest people in tech are over.

If the allegations were unsubstantiated it would not have gotten this far, especially if he dealt with this in a mature fashion by engaging and showing he is just a reasonable person. If they were totally unsubstantiated the only way it would get to this point is because he dealt with it in the worst ways possiblle.

People wouldn't have quit to make what is essentially a useless fork if it were truly unsubstantiated. Those people are truly angry about what happened. This means there was something to resolve but it wasn't resolved, we just get grandstanding and massive effort into polemical defenses.

In my experience, as long as you select the right seeds/strain (feminized seeds are readily available) and harvest in time, you won't have "low grade crap weed"(obviously that description is subjective) but a very marketable product. Yeild is more difficult to optimize for.

Since other people are comparing rudimentary horticulture to consumable alcohol production for some reason, making market grade alcohol is not nearly as simple. Aside from maybe some parts of West Virginia, basement hooch is not in high demand.

Which is able to undercut a good portion of Microsoft's market.

Keep in mind the original comment I was replying to:

>Subscription pricing requires the app to be so crucial you can‘t live without it.

MS Office is on its way to becoming redundant to the majority of users. The price is going to be less and less justified in the near future as Office loses its reputation as a crucial piece of software (at least for the average student/employee who doesn't need to perform very specific formatting or perform complex spreadsheet calculations).

The difference is the "X years" part. I'd rather own software that works until something actually breaks and I can choose if I keep paying for upgrades, rather than software deliberately exploding if I stop writing Adobe a metaphorical check every month.

I bought Lightroom 6 for $79 (upgrade price from LR3) about 26 months ago. It still works fine. Whatever features I'd have gotten with the CC package ($260 and continuing upward forever) are certainly not worth more than tripling the price.

Obviously if it's your profession or a more serious hobby the value proposition changes. But the "everyone pays the same price, even the occasional hobbyist" model is pretty shitty for the occasional hobbyist.
Great to hear that!

The reason why it's particularly interesting to me, i.e. to someone with a dev background, is that the lean startup wisdom says you should be very specific about the customer you're after and Uploadcare seems like a solution targetted at a broad spectrum of customer segments. Of course, I'm happy to be proved wrong if there are one or two dominant customer segments that you address Uploadcare to. Also, you might have as well started out with a very specific customer persona and spread to other segments. Whatever it was, curious to know.

I guess many developers dream up products targetted at developers like them selves. Selling to fellow developers is hard. It would be great to read a success story for a change.

We live in a single objective reality. There are ways to get at the truth.

Some of those ways are even easy. Can the claims be tested, sometimes this can shortcut you strait to the truth. Knowing how to check sources gets you one step closer. Knowing how to assess the quality of sources, helps. Knowing how to understand the original source material is crucial. Checking that a multitude of sources agree. Determining if the sources are trustworthy (in the web of trust sense). In the case of claims about the natural world being able to duplicate experiments is the ultimate source of truth. There is more but much of this can be done with just a few web searches.

Many Millions of people don't or can't do any this. How many times have we fixed someone's else's computer with just a google search?

Now for the part where I get downvoted. I blame religion. If you do even the most basic checking into most religions they start seeming off. The sources are often unverifiable books. They make claims about the natural world that don't line up with evidence if they are even testable, worse they often contradict themselves. They often have a long history of actively covering up the truth of reality as best they can. What chances does a mind have at navigating a potentially nuanced modern political landscape when its critical faculties have been dulled to the point of accepting as literal truth some or all of the stories about virgin birth, miracles, resurrection, denial of evolution, implausible claims of the earth's age and many other manners of objective non-true things. Religion damages critical thinking. Demagogues and autocrats have always like reduced critical thinking.

The point here was that credit scores do not only rate your own behavior, but also those of people around you. If your neighborhood is bad, your credit score might reflect that instead of your own performance as a debtor. And if your neighborhood becomes hip and gains a better reputation, your credit score might improve even though you're still the same person.

I think I'm in agreement with you. What I meant by the IDE is that "ideally" it should have REPL like offerings if the language can support hot code swapping.

I still don't think its REPL that makes Lisp or clojure magic (when I say magic I mean awesome). Its all the other stuff like macros and homoiconicity (which I see your point plays some part in academic REPL).

> Even JRebel can not do to a running JVM application what some Lisp implementations can do. Not near of that.

Well thats because of the Java compiler and in some parts the language of Java. It has nothing to do with the JVM otherwise Clojure wouldn't work. But I agree JRebel is far cry from the full reloading capabilities of Lisp, Erlang and other dynamic languages.

> IDE with a powerful debugger will let you evaluate expressions based on a state that is stuck... ie setting breakpoint (as well of course as investigating current variables and such)

> This is pretty basic

I agree but its still surprising how many languages do not do this well and I didn't mention that you can execute simple expressions in that mode something other static languages like C will not allow.

Besides.... I can change a function name in Java or Scala and see immediately everywhere in my code base with (e.g. red squiggle lines) how that impacts other code... for static languages that is pretty basic :P

I'm totally envious of your lisp machine (EDIT: in all honesty...I realize that originally sounded sarcastic).
Telling which direction a siren is coming from is really, really easy. You can do it with three electret microphones and a $1 ARM chip. A simple TDOA multilateration algorithm will do a far better job of it than a human, even in complex reverberant environments.

Reliably understanding speech is effectively strong AI. Humans don't speak very clearly, but we're spectacularly good at inferring meaning from context. Accurate transcripts of colloquial speech are often completely incomprehensible, because a vast amount of information is conveyed through context. When we're listening to someone speak, we're decoding the phonemes into symbols, but we're also constructing a model of the speaker's mind and predicting what they mean to say.

As described by the other commentator, this isn't quite the same. My normal workflow is 2 command line windows and ~3-4 open files. Doing this in tmux while trying to maintain the ability to move and split windows at will means that's 3-4 instances of vim. Not a great experience if I want to save all. Also, moving windows in tmux/screen has, for me, always been a huge pain of remembering a bunch of keyboard shortcuts. In acme I just click and drag stuff.
Isn't that kind of the point though? Yes, computers can hear better than humans, but they fail miserably at understanding the meaning of what they are hearing and responding with the appropriate actions. This is exactly the same issue that is/will be faced with self driving/driverless cars.
There is a difference of course. While we are still learning about their implementation I think the statements below are true

1. We don't support just stream. You can throw a SQL at a kafka topic as easy as SELECT * FROM `topic` [WHERE ]

2. We support selecting or filter on the record metadata: offset/timestamp/partition (Haven't seen something similar in Confluent KSQL)

3. We integrate with Schema Registry for Avro. We hope to support Hortonworks schema registry soon as well as protobuf.

4. We allow for injecting fields in the Kafka Key part. For example: SELECT _offset as `_key.offset`, field2 * field3 - abs(field4.field5) as total FROM `magic-topic`

5. Just quickly looking at the Confluent KSQL "abs" function i see it accepts Double only. It doublt that everything is converted to Double before it hits the method and then converted back. (too short of a time to understand the whole implementation).

6. Filters: is related to point 2. We allow filter on message metadata. For example: SELECT * FROM topicA WHERE (a.d.e + b) /c = 100 and _offset > 2000 and partition in
