Good point – I didn't it wasn't useful, just that there are a lot of people who think that you will be compiling React.js or jQuery as-is to WebAssembly, and just shipping them that way.

That's just not how it'll work.
I suppose at a very high level your thesis might be true, but at a practical level, I don't think it is. The banks have simply seen it's cheaper to eat the cost of fraud (and ensure the victim has the burden of proof wherever possible) than implement stricter security measures.

This goes from the transaction terminal to the bank's server room.

Europe has had chip cards for over 20 years. In the US, it was very recently implemented; only in the past year.

It wasn't that the US banks were occupying some "sweet spot" of retail transaction risk/reward; they simply didn't want to shell out the extra bucks to send people cards with chips in them. Neither merchant nor bank wanted to pay for chip-reading terminals. So, nobody budged until just the past year.

I don't know whether it was legislation, or perhaps the growing cost of credit card fraud (i.e. card skimmers, etc), but for whatever reason, it certainly wasn't a "sweet spot". We've had chip technology for 20+ years, they just didn't want to pay for it.
This sounds a bit misguided. IIUC, Google Fi is really a mechanism of accessing two carriers from the same device. It consists of 1. A partnership between Google Fi (the cellular provider), T Mobile, and Sprint, and 2. A special radio hardware on the phone that is capable of working with two different "channels" at the same time. Since my Nexus device broke, I have personally been using "Google Fi" (the provider) on my iPhone which means I do NOT reap the full benefits of Fi without having the special radio hardware.

So, I don't think it is physically possible to do the "two provider at the same time" thingy without a special hardware (you'd need two parallel "radio" circuits on your phone).

And with that, your analogy falls sadly on its face, as you seem to indicate an artificial "software" limitation has been set to prevent us from using Google Fi on our iPhones.
You'd be surprised how often WebGL comes into play, take those silky smooth animations for example...

Not sure why you're being downvoted, because as a lifelong resident around deer, afaik everything you've said is reasonable, if not true.

I live in a rural'ish area with a decent deer population [1] . Most residents see them as endearing, while a minority see them as pests. Go a bit farther out into more rural (but not boonies) areas where people do more serious (but still personal scale) agriculture on their properties, and the ag-pest attitude becomes much more prevalent.

Ask any winemaker and they'll call deer a pest.

Fwiw I'm in the "magical" camp (being neighbors with a deer rescuer will do that to you!) but understand the ag perspective.

[1] There's a family of deer that walk by my property every evening, and this morning I inadvertently startled a buck that was chilling out in front of the house -- they're very timid animals, which I guess is a big difference vs Kangaroos?

I don't use redash, but isn't the 'complexity' just the boiler plate literal text? The query is rather simple.

No more complex than the google chart call, surely?

US Judges are pretty ruthless too, esp. in their own courtroom -- if they see this is just a spam law suite / mocking the courtroom I wouldn't be surprised to see people getting tossed into contempt.

I had over 180 "friends" on facebook. I deactivated my facebook account 6 months ago, and I've never regretted the decision one bit.
My argument would probably be willful non-compliance with FCRA requirements [+]. (I'm not planning on suing Equifax and if I were I wouldn't do it via a form letter, because that smacks of abuse of the legal process and judges will not be neutral about that.)

An action under the FCRA may be brought in "any other court of competent jurisdiction", carries statutory damages of $1k for willful non-compliance, and allows the judge to assess arbitrary punitive damages. Given that you're likely the only person talking and that you'll be describing systemic issues which affected 143 million Americans, I think you should just ask the judge for the max and see what he says.

HNers are, by the way, likely to be well-served by small claims courts, just by dint of education, organizational ability, and ability to perform professionalism.

[+] 15 U.S. Code § 1681e(a) -- "Identity and purposes of credit users" requires "very consumer reporting agency shall maintain reasonable procedures designed to avoid [unauthorized disclosure of information]" Your argument, informally because small claims court, would be "If your procedures allow you to disclose credit information on 143 million people, your procedures are per se unreasonable."
...and IMHO those "security or privacy issues" are an acceptable cost of freedom, the same way that I see crime in general: no one wants to be a victim, but you can see that, as long as crime still exists, so does freedom. If no one can do "bad things", then everyone has already had the essence of life taken out of them. I wrote this comment a few months ago when (almost) everyone was wondering what could be done, in the wake of a massive malware attack:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14339031

More timely, the WTC attacks 16 years ago marked another notable event whereafter great freedom was lost in the name of safety.

As that old saying goes, "Those who sacrifice freedom for security deserve neither."
> 3. I recently read a genome-wide association study (GWAS) with over 400 authors (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28714976). I think 400 authors is way above median, but even relatively tame GWAS typically require a group effort just for data QC. Here, somehow these two guys did it all themselves.

This is from Framingham. The QC was all done well before, so not having 400 authors is no more suspicious than a one or two-author paper using UKBB data from 500k people - the point of having a long-running systematic study such as Framingham or UKBB or the twin registries is, among other things, to amortize the cost of data collection and preparation, instead of expecting every paper to collect an entire new sample and build a pipeline and analyze it.
Id agree on the taste part. Never had bison, but still that same gamey taste, certainly stronger than venison.

As for cooking, no, terribly dangerous advice. Cook kangaroo well regardless of what butchers and cooking shows tell you.

Kangaroo has somewhere near 20x the bacterial levels of raw chicken. It's wild hunted meat that's been commercialised. Perfectly fine if you eat it soon after being killed, but no sold roo in Australia falls into that category.

There's plenty of ways to keep meat tender while cooking it well, pressure cooking does an amazing job.
They're fundamentally different questions. I have conversations with a lot of people on a lot of topics, some of those conversations are more substantive than others. Even if I disagree with someone it's easy to tell when a new idea has been presented and how well it has been articulated. My understanding of this voting system is that we are meant to use it to encourage meaningful conversation, not to motivate our own agenda.

Is it possible to abuse this system? Of course it is. That's why I am engaging you in this conversation to perpetuate the idea that the voting system is actually a meta-vote about the quality of the conversation.

What a terrible title. A "web framework" conventionally is the runtime library, e.g. React, or Ruby on Rails.

The optimizing compilers are part of the "build tools" or "build chain" or "make system". They weren't ever runtime libraries (except in isolated examples), and the general patterns have been around since the 70s.

Yes, it's good to learn how a compiler works.
Isn't the problem worse with this approach? You get

PETA argued that the monkey should have copyright in the photo. That argument was rejected by the district court, and didn't look super promising in the appeals court oral argument.

There was a separate discussion about whether the photographer could have copyright in the photo, in particular the Wikimedia Foundation claimed he should not. That discussion has not been tried in court at all, and it seems far from certain (lots of legal commenters disagreed).

It's more than just sandboxing: Apps going through the App Store have to meet a stringent set of requirements, chiefly being no private API usage, no circumvention of features intended to give the user control/privacy, and no third party web engines (and all the performance and security implications that come with those). Apple regularly rejects apps that violate the first two, and while I'm sure some get through they tend to get buried by scores of more legitimate alternatives. Sideloaded apps get to bypass all of this.

If they ever do offer sideloading/gatekeeper, it should be turned off by default and turning it on should make the risks crystal clear with a scary alert and passcode prompt. Average folks should be heavily discouraged against using it. Gatekeeper works on the Mac, but iOS devices are both far more numerous and far more personal, so the stakes are much higher.

I don't feel it is useful to narrow this to a political issue rather than a broader social trend.

I also don't particularly appreciate the tone of your replies and especially statements like "the failure to recognise that is harmful to your understanding", which come across as somewhat condescending and less about seeking a proper conversation than about attempting to lecture.

So I won't be replying further to this thread.

Apple and other computer makers have tried the social standing thing too with their products, but thye have always failed. It only works up until certain point.

I do think that there are markets for $2,000, $3,000, $4,000 iphone, but they must provide functional enhancements over $1,000 model, be it insanely good camera, insanely good display, 1TB storage, or 50% more battery life in same form factor.

With computers and devices, it's more about practical utility.

So why doesn't Apple do this? Because the market for $2-$5,000 phone is too small, and given Apple's reliance on parts maker, they can only have so much competitive edge. (i.e. if they can do it, then so can Android)
Not the animal, the meat. The meat has been butchered and then left out too long. For some meats, aging in this way improves the taste or texture - Not so much for lamb.
Fairly cheap... but still more expensive then non steak beef, pork or chicken.

I would eat a heap more of it, but its often ~ $16 a kilo when I can get chicken breast for $8
Not really. It says "up to $25,000" not "exactly $25,000" meaning you don't have to show $25,000 worth of damages if the damages are 1,000 and that's all you're suing for.
> Eating local in-season food should be promoted by market mechanisms.

Given that the market is at work, that is obviously not the result. Transport costs do not apparently override convenience, simpler logistics, and economies of scale.

The step that worked for me was unfollowing everything from Facebook, so that I have a completely empty News Feed. If I want to see what's happening for a particular person, I just navigate to their profile and see directly. I've found this way, even if I have Facebook installed I very very rarely open it and if I do, I close it immediately since there's no content.

They just flip through it. I'm a citizen so they don't do much with it. They usually look at texts and emails, to see if people are going to work there illegally. I'm able to work there so it's pretty silly.

It has never left my sight. I can't speak for others and didn't watch the show that carefully. I live so close to the border that my neighbors get Canadian television. So, I've seen it there. I don't actually have TV hooked up, so I don't see it often.

> 1. The persistent approach is not right for global variables, which are dynamically bound. So I ended up needing two Environment classes, a Map-based one for the global scope, and then a persistent one for locals. That, of course, also requires an interface so that most code can work polymorphically with both types.

Can you give an example of what you mean?

"Global variables" are simply variables declared at a top-level scope. They don't need to be "dynamically bound" if you unravel the top-level into a sequences of statements that thread their environment (which is a bog-standard practice for interpreters, and how you should handle blocks, too), unless you'd like to be able to reference variables declared below you in the global scope. And that can be resolved by passing a dynamic environment in addition to the lexical one. Or by making a single pass over the global space, grabbing all the declared names, and making that your initial lexical environment. But, of course, this is all speculation without an example.

> I considered having a problem exercise to do effectively that, but I felt like it might be reaching a little too far for a first-time language implementer.

Uniquely renaming variables is, in my opinion, a far simpler concept to grasp than nesting scope resolution. It would also be far easier to implement, with notably less code change, and continue to allow you to add another compiler pass and allow the reader to cover ground. The actual downside is that it achieves your goal without needing to explain the whole mess, which means the chapter doesn't get to spend time explaining how to think about resolving variables.

> code like this is not common:

Your toy example is, obviously, a situation where you should reconsider what you're doing. However, a program such as

lookup :: Env -> Ear -> Value
lookup = ...

f :: Env -> Expr -> Expr
f env exp =
let lookup = lookup env
in ...

is a fairly common pattern in automatically curried languages, or languages with functional-style loops (see [0] for such a usage of shadowing). I don't think that your stance is wrong, but I think decrying other stances isn't particularly fair to the language design world, where there are many languages where such shadowing is neither rare nor often an error. Of course, there is some play here insofar as treating function declarations differently from other variables, which is not the case in many languages where this behavior is accepted.

Also, for what it's worth, translating the above code to JavaScript yields a stack overflow error if you invoke lookup inside of `f`.

Sorry, I did not mean to say that is how it is but how it seemed. My understanding is that the modems aren’t capable. That being said, activation is done only with a nexus or pixel device (software) and while switching might be a hardware issue, iPhone works on both sprint and Tmobile (on an iPhone on Tmobile after moving from Verizon) and so google fi should still work.
There is a contingent that is very interested in re-decentralizing the Internet.
