I’m not sure how you parsed that from my post - I didn’t ascribe any intent or motivation to any party.
Headsets have nothing (or little) to do with AR. You're probably confusing AR and VR.

There are tons of use cases for AR:

Posting a thread as an image is on my todo list. It's good to know that there is a demand!
It's complicated. Doctors employed by hospitals report to two sets of managers. There are other doctors who serve as medical department heads and the chief of medicine. But those doctors are also accountable to non-physician business managers for administrative and financial issues. And then independent self-employed doctors may have privileges at the hospital and see some patients there but don't have managers in the traditional sense.
In the context of the above comment, I'd say that they're about the same. Pypy appears to run between half-as-fast and twice-as-fast as java (hotspot) with a much smaller memory footprint, depending on the benchmark.
Hopefully coming soon "Show HN: I wrote a bot to re-post highly up-voted videos if they haven't been re-posted for a certain time period."

I for one am shocked, shocked, that independent publishers colluded with a single company in establishing a near-monopoly in hosted content delivery because of their "publisher-friendly policies" and said company is now taking advantage of that position.
This looks like terrible advice. It is defeatist (you can't do anything about most of your situation - false, as other comments have pointed out) and where it does offer some suggestion, it is to do stuff that the OP has already ruled out and which will obviously contribute to the OP getting even more stressed. And it feels like unrealistic advice too... you can't "learn everything", or anywhere near everything, of any deep topic like web development. Just thinking about trying to do that seems likely to be panic inducing to anyone who has any notion of how big a field that is.

I would recommend reading the many other helpful posts here for ideas of better advice to offer someone in this situation. This ain't it, imho.
Enough customers would care that no car OEM would try. The type of person who replaces their car every 3 years wouldn't care (most work is warranty, and even basic maintenance probably goes to the dealer as that is the best way to ensure if there is a warranty issue, there is not question that the maintenance was done correctly) but when they go to trade the car in the used car buyers will care because they don't always go to the dealer. Any manufacture trying this will discover that trade in value of their cars is the scrap price. (the manufacture is probably the one who owns the lease so it is their dollar so it will hit them hard)

That is just practical reasons. There are a lot of laws about car repairs: car manufactures are required by law to make repair information available to third party repair shops. Independent car mechanics are a large enough group as well that any attempt to work around the law will result in more laws.
Any plans to build a client for Synology NAS devices? I'd love to have an off-premise backup for my home/small-business data, and it'd be nice if I didn't have to go through a PC to get it there. And I'd be willing to pay a little more - I feel guilty dumping 18TB on you with a consumer plan.
> Your body has minimum protein [macronutrient] requirements

True, but counting macros isn't a practical framework for eating well. Empirically, the US obesity epidemic is not about people missing macronutrient goals; it comes from eating low-quality processed pseudo-foods.
3 Ways a Midwest Mindset Can Build a Better Business
I compiled it. I followed the instructions here -

https://developers.google.com/ar/develop/java/getting-starte...

Actually I followed them somewhat - I never opened Android Studio, I did it all on the command line.

Note you have to install two APK's, the ARcore service APK you have to download from them, plus the one you're compiling with gradle or AS.

Hey, this probably isn't good long term advice, but sugar and coffee work wonders for kick starting my brain on foggy days. If you're just looking to get through the day, maybe pick up some gummy bears and a small coffee.

This link was posted on HN recently, http://gettingthingsdone.com/fivesteps/ . I recommend following this practice at work, it will reduce your mental panics by getting all these thoughts out of your head and onto paper so you aren't "holding" on to them. You don't need to do the five steps, but writing stuff down really helps.

Also, physical discomfort can sometimes manifest in different ways. I know this sounds dumb, but try going to the bathroom more often. I had a therapist tell me this and it worked. I was subconsciously holding my bladder all the time because I felt that I needed to get other stuff done before I could excuse myself.

RSI can be helped with an ergonomic keyboard and mouse. Those were big game changers for me. I also stopped using my laptop for long term tasks. The monitor is too low and you end up cranking your neck and back to see what's on the screen.

Definitely interested in that podcast, but I must say I find it ironic that they're running JS from Google Analytics and Scorecard Research. :D
Edit: Ninja'd by Crespyl :P

Yeah, I should have said it could benefit from using a fully-fledged game engine, considering you'll likely need to import 3D models, have objects interact with each other, and so on which Unity would help a lot with.

However, I primarily do experimental work in those engines, so I'm pretty biased.
Thank you for your very detailed and good response. I actually have a lot of experience with relational databases, much more than with NoSQL.

The thing with the users collection is that I need to be able to add any arbitrary attribute to the user document so I can't really use a table with a schema. I guess I could use a related key value table for those but the attributes can be anything, nested objects and arrays. Maybe serializing the value would work but it still seem that Mongo is a better fit in that case.

I also like seeing the user document as a big JSON without joins when doing DB admin stuff.

"The final principle was simple over easy."

This is a great principle and really good to see in this article.

Usually when I've seen rewrites it goes the other way. There is some simplistic component that gets rewritten in some new language/framework/etc and end up being much more complicated.
While I didn't use Uber in India, Mexico City was the same experience for me. In fact our local office strongly encouraged us ONLY to use Uber over anything else. It was by far the quickest, and safest way to get around.

Twitter threads are somewhat broken and often in a chain of tweets, it shows only the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 8th tweet and then you have to go digging under each individual tweet to find the rest of the threads.

That happens when the 3rd tweet is a reply to the 1st and 4th a reply to the 2nd which breaks the whole thread
I was there myself. It turned out to be undiagnosed sleep apnea. I agree with everyone here who says to see a doctor as one of the first things you do.
Also currently defeating my ad blocker. Soon youtube... I will be blocking your ads again soon...

After not seeing ads for so long, actually getting an ad is insufferable - I closed the window and just didn't watch the video and set a mental note that I might go back and watch it once my ad blocker is updated. Immediately after the ad started playing was a pop-under that asked if i wanted to upgrade to youtube red. If they actually defeat ad blockers, I actually would subscribe if it meant no more ads again.

Do people on the internet actually watch these ads? I thought to myself why in the world would anyone want to go on the internet if it meant having to view this garbage. I'm really getting spoiled and conditioned with my mostly ad free existence.
The New Front in the Gerrymandering Wars: Democracy vs. Math
I commented here on Tango 3.5 yrs ago: "remains to be seen if Google can persuade cellphone manufacturers to include 2 special cameras + 2 extra processors in their future devices." Looks like that was the case.

It appears the ARCore API is well designed and 1-1 feature equivalent to ARKit, i.e. VIO + plane estimation + ambient light estimation. The API's even share a lot of names, e.g. Anchor, HitTest, PointCloud, LightEstimate.

Now that stable positional tracking is an OS-level feature on mobile, whole sets of AR techniques are unlocked. At Abound Labs (http://aboundlabs.com), we've been solving dense 3D reconstruction. Other open problems that can be tackled now include: large-scale SLAM, collaborative mapping, semantic scene understanding, dynamic reconstruction.

With Qualcomm's new active depth sensing module, and Apple's PrimeSense waiting in the wings (7 yrs old, and still the best depth camera), the mobile AR field should become very exciting, very fast.

Removability is not the applicable criterion. It is whether the device is permanently affixed or not.

If the dealer left a ballpoint pen in the glove box, sure, you could make an argument that they retain ownership of it. But the lockout device is exactly as removable and as permanently affixed as the car stereo, or the headlights, or the transmission.

If you replaced the original manufacturer's car stereo with an aftermarket model, and wanted to keep it and swap it back out for the original stereo, you would have to mention that in the purchase agreement. The same goes for any other fixture or appurtenance on the vehicle. If it isn't removed before the papers are signed, or mentioned in those papers, ownership goes with the title to the vehicle.
I would also mention "Emergent Design" along with KISS and YAGNI. Do not start your code base with a collection of design patterns. This is the usual cause of a complete over designed mess. Instead as the code grows look for the patterns to emerge and then apply them.

12 Things I Learned on My Journey from Egypt to Silicon Valley
If it cost them 10,000$. I bet they'll make it back just on the devs/geeks who want to get in on the silliness of it, id say minimum 2000 devs in Russia would buy a whopper to get some whoppercoin, 2000x5$ = 10,000. Make money back and get exposure haha
The original poster asked for recommendations in a particular language. If your recommendation is to learn a different language, it is irrelevant. What may not work for you, may work well for others.
The assembly version is using the packed version of the FMA instruction (that's what the "P" in the mnemonic stands for), but as far as I can tell, it's only using one of the packed values, whereas the instruction can calculate two (AVX) or four (AVX2) FMA operations at once. It might be possible to get some speedup by rearranging the calculation so it can use the full width of the vector registers - at first glance, at least the two sides of the division should be possible to calculate in parallel with half as many FMA instructions.

Perhaps if companies that collect and share data were required to maintain a list of their transactions, press release style? Statements could be generalized such that it is understood how all users were affected collectively by a particular decision. It might be a workable middle ground.
Ask HN: What is your email setup?

You're both right - it's evolving the language, just like lies evolve the truth, and a kid's clumsy drawing of a flower is a creative and unique artwork. Not being flippant. There is an inherent conflict between how people want it and how it is. The future might not care either way.
Your quotation I think is very important here.

> "Good artists copy; great artists steal"

The point of this quotation is that "good artists" merely copy other people, which is what Apple is talking about when they hang banners like "Redmond Start Your Copiers", but "great artists" 'steal', which means they take the good idea and transform it to make it better. And this is very much how Apple works, and this comes back to your original pseudo-quotation, "it doesn't matter if you're first, Apple waits till its 'ready'". Apple doesn't just blindly copy what other people are doing. They 'steal' the ideas and turn them into something great before releasing them.
Well, work conditions are worsening everywhere. Stress it our daily bread now.
Stress == non alignment between responsibilities and authorities, like a dieselgate software engineer being ordered to make it, but s/he will end up the only one in court.

Short anwser,
- realign your sense of responsibility with your authority.
- ask for better work conditions, including time for your family life.

This is calling since it is a global problem for a global solution.

I know I will be downvoted for this (HN censors anything going in this direction), but as I cared: it is calling for a union of software developers.

We all genuinely suffer what you describe and I don't think we worsen. I do think these are our work conditions, and alone we are f*cked.

Your family matters
You matter
Yes work organization in IT is FUBAR and manager don't take responsibility but they have no incentive to respect you more than the shareholders.

As someone who was a full-time YouTuber in the past, I have not been very happy with YouTube's new direction.

I believe a large part of this new UX push is to integrate more ads in an organic way. I was a beta tester, between me and my friends we saw lots of scummy fake ads being inserted in our subscription feeds in an organic way:

http://imgur.com/a/wWKHG was one my friend sent me.

Also, livestreams appear in your recommendation feed directly along videos with minimal clear distinction.

Also please do your research into YouTube's recent censorship of monetization (circa 2017) and changes to monetization algorithm (circa 2015, 2016). They do not care about the content creators or users anymore, only the money.

At least that is how they act.

Sounds like you need balance, my friend. If you have a job that is brain draining, best not to spend lots of time on a hobby that uses loads of extra brain power. Perhaps try spending time doing something physical or meditating instead of adding more mental stress to your day. When your time frees up in the future, you'll be easily able to pick up where you left off with coding.
these old tricks are still pretty effective especially if the table small enough to be cached on the cpu.. then there are even more tricks to keep the table small by chunking it and lerping between entries. ah memories!
That argument has been made many times and in great detail. See for instance the work of Diane Ravitch, former US Assistant Secretary of Education (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diane_Ravitch)

Thanks, it's a one-time payment so I completely forgot about Android's developer account fee. And I'll add the other points too.

You are reading the data wrong. The 4tb have 5k hours for 400 drives while the others have order of magnitude more spin time. The other type of 4tb have a sample size too small to conclude anything (a single bad batch is possible). Given that the drive failure risk is a curve over time, you need more data. Drives are not reliable when new or very old, but usually ok in between.

That being said, I will never ever buy a Seagate HDD again. They joined Maxtor in my blacklist a long time ago. I lost every single one I ever bought (and RMAed) within a year.
Quick question: Did you have an experience, while coding, that you considered traumatic or negative? Laid-off? Not paid for contract work? Fight with a coworker?
I like looking at the shitload of server racks and cables in the side room of the Burger King joint in my mall, it's like they have a cyborg or some monster plugged into a liquid nutrient bath back there. Yum, gonna order some chicken fries.
I have a slack-line but get very little opportunity to use it. I'll start keeping it in the vehicle so I can bring it on kayak expeditions–adequate clothes-line and camp couch–and on the off chance I find a spot to use it.

I am looking to increase the impact, not reduce it. I know that I need more bone-rattling in my life and can't justify the purchase of a Juvent. Skateboarding provides benefits similar to that of a Juvent, plus I might learn how to fall (and skate).
This is on the right track. I'd like to see it go farther though. Each of these pieces of information has value of X to an advertiser. Flip the relationship management, so vendors treat their users as content producers, and pay some fraction of X to access the user's information. This would need better trust technologies, but is the right path. It's the path groups like the Project VRM folks at the Berkman Center for Internet and Society are working toward, and ties in to Cory Doctorow's concept of Whuffie. Also ties into my concept of Communitivity enhancing software technologies - technologies that help people do community.
Hey there! Don't feel guilty...use Backblaze B2! We're actually already integrated in to Synology's Cloud Sync service! Take a look at-> https://www.synology.com/en-us/knowledgebase/DSM/help/CloudS... (and more B2 info/integrators -> https://www.backblaze.com/b2/integrations.html)
Sorry to hear about this. Some suggestions: take regular mental and physical breaks if possible at work. A 10 minute break to go for a quick walk can make a big difference. Do this at least once in the morning and afternoon (set a reminder). Get some exercise at lunchtime also if possible. This might help with the brain fog and stress. Consider transitioning out of fast-changing front-end web dev to something slower-paced. For example, can you contribute to the business logic or SQL/database? The technology there tends to be more stable. You should try to address the RSI, are there accommodations that your employer can help with? Consider changing employers to find a less stressful work environment and/or cut down on commute time if that's an issue. For the demanding family life, if you have a spouse tell them what you are dealing with and ask for some help if possible. Consider talking to a doctor or therapist to get their input also.

Also got a lot of bad stuff to say about backuppods. Mostly that they don't sell the correct number of wire harnesses. (They need to sell two but they're only selling one, I assume I'm the only person stupid enough to buy from them...)
This could be quite useful for a project I'm working on. Sampling an n-dimensional grid -- currently I switch over to exhaustive sampling from random sampling after I bounce off already-sampled points enough times. But a sampling technique that's both exhaustive and random-ish is the best of both worlds.
> Headsets have nothing (or little) to do with AR.

Headsets have a lot to do with AR, which is why HoloLens is a headset; headsets let it be handsfree, use the entire circumambient space, and provide an important and intuitive control for the portion of reality the user is interested in having augmented.

They also allow for stereoscopic 3d, which is useful, though not always essential, for AR.
I also find that it's much faster in Firefox.

The link you posted is to AWS -- have you ever used terraform on a bare-metal machine? I feel like I've said this at least 5 times so far, but every time I read the Terraform documentation, I get the distinct feeling it's not really for "bare metal" (that's what everyone seems to be calling a machine you actually own in someone's data center)

I really want to use Terraform, but it just doesn't look like it really wants to do the single server use case.
For one thing, security cameras don't follow you around, and are generally poor quality images and possibly slow frame rate. I'd rather be watched through security cameras than through a movie camera following me around.
Okay

I would still disagree, my first thought was defining significantly. When 300% more profitable are the typical differences in yield, how is that insignificant? So then I decided the logical rebuttal would be "over time", where the assertion would be that it isn't significantly more profitable over time.

The rebuttal to that is that baskets of alt coins outperform bitcoin significantly, again by at least 300% barring the worst luck.

And even in a bad year for alts, it is possible to find a difficulty algorithm that you can game giving you an advantage that nobody else notices.
