It indeed is great for the masses.

For doctors, as you voiced earlier, has been pretty ugly. They have to find work outside of country or move to other fields trying to earn money from treatments not covered by NHI.

One more subtle effect is that people start to treat medical service as a cheap service and it is common to see its abuse. In Taiwan, a piece of candy is usually more expensive than a pill.

> could result in the Ministry stripping me of equal custody of my children,

It's not true though.

The ministry can't strip him of equal custody rights, they can only go to court. A judge is the only person who can strip his rights away.

THe claim is:

> Disobeying it even in the slightest (i.e. allowing a trip to the corner store by my 9.75 year old), could result in the Ministry stripping me of equal custody of my children

And that claim is just bullshit. Show me any case in Canada where this has happened.

But frankly if we're going to spend our lives obsessing about extreme tail risks then we've already lost

Yes. And the tail risks are asymmetrical here. Bureaucrats take on responsibility for thousands or hundreds-of-thousands of children in their district. They look bad however few of these kids are harmed or killed. So what might be a perfectly acceptable risk for an individual family is not acceptable to the local government.

The more they interfere and assume responsibility for children the more additional responsibilities their offices will be loaded with when things go wrong. Which will cause further problems, et cetera, because although parents love and provide for their children, institutions don't know how to (and can't afford to).

The article appears to point out that work-related stress is the main reason for burnout, which might be the case for some, but personally, I found that the lack of challenge and meaningfulness in my work were the main predictors for burnout. In short, be more selective in the projects/jobs you take, and focus on the ones you actually care about. I do realize that it's easier being said than done of course.
Is there a way to filter only news like, eg, when new coins get launched, when there are rumors about coins getting added to exchanges, when they actually got added? I'm following the space a bit, but the signal-to-noise ratio is terrible.

An idea for a project that would be really useful IMHO: a calendar with all releases/rumors about additions/actual additions to exchanges. I would even pay a bit for that :)
Your comment is irrelevant to the claim made, which was

> in many countries, child protection services can preemtively declare you an unfit parent and place your children in foster care, pending a decision from a judge,

For a child to be placed in foster care in Australia either the parent has to agree or a judge makes a decision. It's not possible for a child to be placed in foster care without either of those.
There is a disconnect in your messaging. Here on HN the title is "Learn what DDD, CQRS, and event-sourcing are all about", but the tagline in the PDF is "The semantic JavaScript backend for event-driven development".

So, what's this about? about DDD, CQRS and event-sourcing, or about a particular Javascript framework? Those two aren't the same at all (even though I suspect there is a little overlap).

I did - reading the brochure now, the word "semantic" keeps cropping up and I wonder if it's an unsympathetic translation from German, or I'm too far away from the JS world to understand that "Semantic" means:

> That‘s why we have built wolkenkit, a semantic JavaScript backend that addresses three important aspects of software development, and that empowers you to build better software faster.

There's a bunch of things wrong with this claim, "a javascript backend" sounds like an alternative JS VM to me, a backend for javascript (I presume it's meant that this is server side JS not client side?) I also always get my back up when I read "build software faster", surely it ought to be about maintainability when it comes to the perks of DDD/CQRS.
A spam filter is usually a computer program. As far as I know, they are never employers.

The brochure is to 2/3s an introduction to DDD, CQRS, and event-sourcing in general, not being related to a specific JavaScript framework.

The last 1/3 shows how to apply these concepts using wolkenkit, which is a specific framework.

When we created the brochure it seemed important to us to first explain the concepts in a neutral way, because we want to help people gain a better understanding of these concepts, no matter whether they are going to use wolkenkit or not.

"on the beat, and Trump vowing to fire more regulators, that's what's changed. "

I don't really like to defend trumps sayings, but in this case I don't think there are government regulators needed. The company acted shitty and you took the consequences and quit and avoid this company. That's how market works. No need for regulation here.

The "only" problem with this in general today is, that most people do not understand technology at all, that's why big corporation's can get away with the shit they are doing, as there are still people using their consumer unfriendly, but shiny new products.

I doubt more government regulation would help with that.

Smarter people are required. And I do believe this is happening, it just takes some time.

So, I'm now reading the article he cites to support this.

It's an old article, from 2013. It states that:

"Police statistics show 25 children of the 46,718 reported missing in 2011 listed as "abducted by stranger."

And then goes on to show that in the majority of cases that the abductor was known to the parents.

So, the useful dataset would be.

* How many of the children were abducted with unsupervised?

* In the Canadian population how many children in total are left unsupervised regularly.

From that we could calculate:

Percentage of children left unsupervised regularly who are abducted.

Percentage of children not left unsupervised regularly who are abducted.

Of course, correlation != causation. But if there is no difference between the two populations then that would tell us something. However, there isn't enough data in the article to make this assertion.

Pardon my ignorance but what's OSG, ASG or C&E?
Sure, and there are plenty of places where they are welcome. I don't expect to go eat in a Michelin star restaurant and be seated next to a family of four having an evening out. Equally, if I go to a bar on a Saturday night, I don't expect to be seated next to a dog that doesn't want to be there.

There's room for both, but my tongue in cheek point was supposed to be that dogs tend to be better behaved in bars/restaurants (in my anecdotal experience)
That is exactly the case. Dog bite liability is a huge issue. A pit bull injuring a child is massive liability. Breed size restrictions are a back door way of screening potentially dangerous breeds. A beagle, to my knowledge, has never killed anyone, but there are plenty of tragic cases where certain large breeds has maimed or injured people and other animals. It’s actually a fact that more dog bites are committed by small dogs, but a kid losing an arm over a chihuahua bite is unheard of, thus the liability risk for small dogs is dramatically lower. Also as a parent, I would be extremely wary of living in a community where pit bulls are allowed. As a property owner, I am not going to base the safety of my property on the hope that a pit bull owner has trained his dog appropriately. Hope is not a valid strategy for risk mitigation.

I also have an admitted prejudice against pit bull owners based on my experience with such owners — so if I am legally able to discriminate against certain animals, I admit I would because it would allow me to avoid leasing to pit bull owners. If anyone has been a landlord for very long, they would know that you can tell a lot about a potential tenant by the type of dog they own — and the anecdotal experiences of my dad owning rental properties tend to support my prejudice.

I actually actually own a large breed, a white Swiss shepherd, and I am completely understanding when people are wary of a massive working dog, although living in France, people here aren’t so afraid — perhaps because culturally the French seem to do a better job of training dogs so there are fewer experiences of people being attacked or annoyed by rowdy animals.
You spend your life having the idea reinforced that the fact that you can perform better than others gives you a advantage that is quickly exaggerated to mean that you think you can overcome hindsight deficit and common but expensive errors.
I think that's what your parent is saying. There are good solutions built on WSGI, and WSGI itself is restrictive. Not to take anything away from this project.

SourceForge still provides a few things that other services do not, like full hosting (not just static pages), mailing lists, public file hosting, forums/discussions and a bunch of other more minor stuff like screenshots, news, etc which can be helpful if one doesn't want to setup a full site (so on the same place you have both the option to go with a full site or to ignore it and have the service provide most of the functionality you'd need to provide yourself anyway).

In addition, as a user it has reviews, categorization with subcategories (which allow the service to suggest other relevant projects), update notifications, etc.

So, strictly speaking, SF provides more to projects and some projects do want that so it makes sense to see new stuff popping up in SF.

The main reason SF isn't used much these days is that the site had its reputation badly damaged some years ago while it was owned by some shady company that tried to squeeze everything they could out of it. But last year (i think) it got bought by people who seem to care about the service and doing the right things so far. Of course healing the reputation is a hard thing to do.

Personally i self host most of my stuff, but i do know of some projects that take advantage of those extra features (e.g. FreeGLUT uses the mailing lists extensively).
I smell a confidence trick.

Nowhere in his article does Crook mention any specific names of government workers he interacted with, specific dates when he met with caseworkers, or specific actions or enforcements the government would take regarding his case.

Ask HN: How to start afresh in a new domain after years of expertise in another?
Hi Guys,
I have over 12 years of expertise in a particular domain. Now I recently switched to another company in a new domain (based on some overlapping technical skills and good recommendations from my past colleagues) as the jobs were far to come by in my old area of expertise. But, I'm finding it really hard to adjust in the new one.

The biggest challenges I'm facing are :

1. Looking at my years of experience my colleagues expect an expert level of performance. But being new to the domain, I've not been able to meet their expectations.

2. I've tried looking for non-tech roles PM, TL etc., hoping to leverage my management/leadership skills, but my senior management aren't buying it.

3. I feel isolated in meetings where everyone around me are talking the technology and I just take notes or stay silent mostly.

4. When I see guys half my experience are miles ahead of me in terms of the tech skills in the new area, I wonder if I even have a chance catching up ?

Any suggestions / advice is welcome and highly appreciated. Thanks in advance !
React Native the Future of Hybrid App Development
I didn't have the confidence that I can take care of myself and have my needs fulfilled regardless of specific issues at hand at that moment in time. This has caused me to feel overly dependent on others and on meeting their expectations (or the expectations I think they might have of me, that they didn't even express).

I’m a people-pleaser so this is great insight into my own behavior. But being a people-pleaser is also why I don’t understand making my satisfaction factors intrinsic. When people push their “successes” — jobs, cars, girls, diamonds, houses and iPhones — onto me, how can I to continue to work on my small WordPress project with the same level of motivation I had before they brought their “successes” to my attention? I do need them for my survival — I get a lot of anxiety just thinking of living without their support — but I don’t want them influencing my motivation, so how do I go about insulating my poor self-esteem from their occasional, and btw completely unintentional, blitzkrieg attacks?
>Protip, he's actually trying to brag.

No need to assume the worst in people.

Now it sounds like you're trying to brag. Granted, I tend to agree with you—the only caveat being, it's very possible to burn out on shorter timescales.

For example: last year I did 10 contiguous 20-hour workdays. Despite the fact I've never been more productive in my life, my brain was largely mush by the 10th day. Ended up burned out for weeks after. (Now it sounds like I'm trying to brag.)

This is an hour long video. It's there a summary of key points?
I don't know how it works in Canada, but in California, CWS has the right to remove your children to foster care if they deem the child is at risk of harm, and then the courts get involved.

Considering that forcibly removing children from their parents is a highly traumatic situation, I can understand how someone might not want to do what you suggest.

Also, at no point is a jury involved in the disposition of the children; it's a single judge and a 3+ party trial (parent(s), child, state, &c.).
They actually just plate connectors typically, I think with around 7µm of gold. And no, gold is not a better copper or silver. Both silver and copper are more conductive than gold (then followed by aluminum).

Gold is excellent for contact points though as it does not tarnish.

Silver conducts heat and electricity the best of the three, but tarnishes the most easily, so it can have issues with high frequency signals as most of the signal travels on the outer surface.

If both silver and copper were the same price as copper, it'd probably be silver that would see the most increase in use in electrical applications. During the Manhattan project, there was a shortage of copper and cost was not an option. 430 million troy ounces of silver from the West Point Bullion Depository was melted down and used to make magnetic coils. At the end of the project, it was all returned, minus 120 oz.

- the civil war

- the industrial revolution

- two world wars

- huge growth in population and in the economy, which makes it inherently less volatile

- a bunch of other important events that would obviously affect currency prices

> Should children be banned from all restaurants?

Children are obviously different, because they're a necessary part of a functioning society. Banning parents from all places not explicitly designed for children seems cruel and, in more practical terms, will further reduce the number of people willing to shoulder the burdens of parenthood.

I'm also convinced that children derive great benefits from spending time in the company of adults other than their parents. To quote one of the Greeks: "It takes a village to raise a child".

Yes, you can make an argument for human self-extinction. But that's a separate debate.
This solves a real problem. ML pipelines are complicated, and often involve multiple languages and platforms (just as described in this post).

But.. there are existing solutions in this area. Notable Luigi[1] (from Spotify) and Airflow[2] (from AirBNB) both seem to have a lot of overlap with this.

I'm most familiar with Luigi, and it does many of the things that are listed here.

Some of the model visualisations look pretty nice, and don't come out-of-the-box in the other platforms.

So I'm not really sure what makes this unique.

even in systems where there is an official system, think temporary handicap stickers, abuse can be rampant in certain areas. From outright fraud of fake stickers/mirror hangers to just always using a relatives car which has a sticker.

the fix is in enforcement backed by real fines. nothing disgusts me more than watching obviously healthy people run from handicap spaces into stores and back out only to watch the little old lady have to hobble from further out because all the spaces are taken.

we live in a society where there are people who will abuse a system because they can or they feel entitled to do so because of some perceived offense.
