I'd say pip is definitely worse. Things like local dependencies, requirements.txt, and virtual env feel hacked add-ons to make pip more like npm
I think this would be far more useful as an overlay over a physical map than just entirely replacing one.

By that, I mean.. think of isobars.
Reply to the post below - Or walmart's tax dollars come from employees or shareholders.

I think the shareholders should direct the company's votes because the shareholders own the company and they're the natural party to get the money.

Though I support a 0% corporate income tax like most other economists which would render this moot. and the only way walmart would pay taxes under a 0% corporate tax paradigm would be at the direction of the shareholders.
>> Do you want a factory worker delivering pizza at night to represent people like him? If so, then he needs funding so that he can put food on the table while he tries to get elected. If people don't crowdfund it then there is no other option but to seek lobbyist money. No different than soldiers and police and firefighters.

I want a person who is educated and has the desire to improve lives to represent people. The extreme rich are far too detached from reality, the poor are struggling and probably have enough problems to not have had the acumen and experience to deal with issues of others.

A person who was rich or middle class before and is going to continue to earn middle income wages for this new job will only take this job because he/she cares, not because they see this as another path to wealth.
I'm not terribly surprised by it. There are a surprising number of people who don't care if they're being tracked as long as they're not being tracked by their family. The whole purpose of private browsing then becomes to hide their porn history from family.

Anything else? Nothing to worry about if you do nothing wrong seems to be the common saying.

Actually presidential election is only time where special interests can't tip the scale easily. Right now that's the only change where people get their say.

Just 1/3rd of senators get elected every two years and only handful among those races are balanced where special interest can tip scales with little effort. Same for congressional elections, few places with 50/50 spread where money can easily gain influence.

Presidential election is too big, at the exact same time, for money to wield influence. I for one am glad that we have presidential elections, people have some voice, at least.
That is a gem of a website. Glad it hasn't been ruined.

I don't understand the GOPATH criticism. For your C compiler to find included header files they need to be specified relative to /usr/include (or some other path contained in the list searched by your compiler).

For the go build tool to find Go packages they need to be given relative to (an element of) GOPATH (which is a colon-separated list of directories that is searched for Go package sources). To work on your own code inside your home directory while installing other packages using Homebrew, you'd set a GOPATH of $HOME:/usr/local. If you also want to consider packages shipped with the OS, you append a ":/usr" to that.

Lots of things work this way: @INC in Perl, sys.path in Python and many more. Why have people such issues understanding this concept when it's called GOPATH?
You mean like Republicans vs Democrats?
I don't see why Google needs their own phone hardware business anymore than I see Apple acquiring Foxconn because they need their own phone hardware business. Apple or Google does not want to take on the overhead of manufacturing phones. HTC has a very good R&D department and that's likely the crown jewel of what Google is after. I would be surprised if this was more than just a acquihire.
I dont know what article you are reading, but the one referenced revolved around a single instance of temporary (albeit dangerous) inconvenience. If she was denied the use of a wheelchair altogether, I might see your point. But as others have stated, 100% access is not realistic given the current technology for disabled people.

Maybe instead of regulation and lawsuits, people that are so worked up over this issue should actually try to invent better tech, instead of expecting the govt to solve all our problems and compensate them whenever we dont meet 100% perfection.
I don't. I work like crazy on a project for 1-2 weeks, but after I finish the difficult job of getting an MVP up. I get bored and move onto something else.

And then my project dies.

I'm sorry, I'm horrible at this too. Please, someone give me and OP better management ideas.
You have to pick one to finish right now; I would mothball the others, not scrap them.

To help you make the choice I'd have to hear more about the projects. You can talk about it here or click on my HN profile.
Somewhat off topic: I'm very interested but as so often before with these kind of texts I'm at least somewhat stumped by the terminology. I can almost read this and I've done two and a half ish courses of Haskell.

I've wasted so much energy feeling stupid when reading texts that I don't understand. But most of the time not understanding is not about "intelligence" but simply not having the right meaning assigned to the right amount of words.

You're not stupid, you just don't have enough structured data yet. I wish I had that kind of insight and believed in it when I started out in university. Not that I'm completely convinced even now.
> Even if they really do want equality, that's just a vague concept.

Well yeah. Justice, Equality for all, everything is a vague concept. There are entire books, parodies, and movies on this subject.

Unless you're seriously suggesting to me that YOU don't understand the concept behind equality. But that's not the issue here. The issue is that you think no one else believes in Equality, or something.

> All I've suggested is that different policies will benefit or harm different races unevenly, and that in general people will be biased toward their own race.

And all we gotta do is work on politics and demonstrate viewpoints where things truly are equal, in a way that many people can agree upon.

Its really not that hard. Bullies calling African Americans the N-word? That's not cool, chastise those guys. Racial Voting suppression going on in a certain area? F-those guys too, we shouldn't be trying to make one race have an easier time voting than another. Racial Quotas being suggested to be part of college-acceptance? That seems a bit like a bad idea to me.

I mean, these are REAL issues that are addressed all the time in Politics. Each time, "equality" may be up for debate but society comes to a general, sane conclusion.

---------------

I don't expect everyone's definition of "equality" to perfectly match. For the most part, I just don't want people to advocate the advance THEIR race at the detriment of other races.

And politics is work. That means I have to work to figure out people's opinions, analyze their viewpoints, and make decisions based on that.
Hopefully, they would get a good chuckle at the idea
I agree entirely, but the parent was purely talking about spending by the candidates' campaigns, so I responded in kind. Even if none of the suspected Russian meddling actually happened, Trump got an immense amount of free media coverage by being such a spectacle.

The so-called "right to self-determination" doesn't exist in the Spanish Constitution, nor in the International Law, nor in Comparative Law.

It isn't. It's a good way to encourage safe ideas.

I believe this is the incorrect usage of "10x". "10x" generally implies a product that is 10 times better in some way to the existing solution in the market, not that there is "10x" the number of potential users.
The thing about democracy is that most people don't care all that much - until they do.

If you mess up in a way that steps on too many toes, too many people are going to do what they can to get you out of office. If you don't, most people won't care all that much about the election.
This is a follow-up to that story. The HN discussion might still be relevant for context though
The hosting providers have known IP ranges and they are scanned permanently. I wouldn't be surprised if some guys had a rule to try 8022 and the most common non standard ports.
> At times it feels like they are demanding an unlimited right to "self define"

I think it's a bit more extreme than that. It's not just they want to be able to self-define, but they also want to command others to accept those definitions. There are really two kinds of personal identity: the identity you apply to yourself and the identity that another person applies to you. They aren't the same, and are unlikely to align if the self-applied identity is unconventional.
Can we finally regulate the crap out of these companies? I mean, for one, why on earth do I not get constant, real time access to my credit report, for free? It's data about me; there's no reason I should ever have to pay to access it.
Man, the obsession with 'Madrid'! I think all Spaniards have a voice in this.

Garmin has best-in-class GPS and wrist-based heart-rate monitors.

The Apple watch...it has a GPS and heart-rate monitor. They're fine if you just want a general idea of how fast you're going (to an accuracy of +/- 30 sec/mile pace) or heart rate (to an accuracy of +/- 10 hbpm).

If you are tracking trends, this inaccuracy is fine since it's the trend that matters. But if the actual numbers matter, go with the Garmin (or Polar, or Suunto) and leave the iWatch at home.
I've never understood how people say it's hard to copy a website and expect fake ones to look crappy and full of typos. You can just type a simple command or use your browser to copy a login page so it looks exactly the same.
Curious what the value proposition would be. I mean, I can see delivery + pre-existing logistics network. Or selling better kits in stores. Or a segue to delivered groceries.

But it seems kind of antithetical to how grocery stores make money. They're low margin, high volume businesses. And this directly attacks volume.

Buying a grocery delivery startup seems like it would make way more sense as a first step.
Right now on my MPB I'm sitting at 14.68GB used with another 3.73GB in swap. Between Chrome, electron-based desktop apps, and Docker containers it's easy to hit that limit. This is just full stack web dev too, nothing rendering related.

Or they could do what Apple does and design their SoC's and send off the designs to TSMC for fabrication. Google has already poached Apple's lead chip architect in June of this year.

> which is often worth it for highly-compensated people

You don't even have to be highly compensated for it to be well worthwhile. Where I live (in NZ) it costs less than 6USD to have groceries delivered. There are other major advantages other than the time and fuel savings. For example, if some non-perishable item is on special (say tinned tomatoes), you don't hesitate to buy a couple of dozen tins because, hey - you don't have to lug them about!
Video and image processing/editing, for starters. Working with large datasets. Running several vms with reasonable memory allocation. Running local DBs. High-end / VR gaming. Etc. I do all of these things daily for both work and pleasure and with 16GB RAM I have run into countless headaches.

Personally I don't use a Mac and could upgrade at any time but I'm waiting out of principle because DDR4 RAM is still seeing exorbitant prices from the shortage.
The Vietnam draft had a loophole for upper middle class kids - the college deferment. What sense did that make other than to exempt rich kids from going to war?
Is ScriptEd paid / sponsored, or is the company all volunteers? If the former, it's disingenuous of them to ask for volunteers.
Perhaps, although Harmonic Drive has previously licensed SRI's Abacus tech from the same inventor (Alexander Kernbaum)[0]. Given the two groups are already partners in commercialization, it wouldn't be a surprise if they extend their collaboration to include this design. In any event, it will be interesting to see what happens -- especially if it remains independent of Harmonic Drive, to your point.

The same thing "we" do when they spend it all on lottery tickets or blackjack? There are already many existing ways for people to lose all their money, with much lower EV than investing in a small growth company. Why is it that this particular type of investment is carved out as something common people should be protected from?
For one, Ms. Clinton would be the tiebreaking vote in the Senate.

Which means every "close call" vote in the Senate (including the Supreme Court Justice vote, various laws that have been passed this year, etc. etc.) would have only passed at the Pleasure of Ms. Clinton.

For another: Mr. Trump delegates a lot of tasks to the Vice President. The Vice President has a lot of power when it comes to implementing the President's policies.
This is a fair point. What I meant is that I think the usability niche for Go is similar to that of C. Is that a fair statement?

I was unfair to Go and this is because I seem to see many cases where Go is brought to where it does not fit.

Thanks! Cloverleaf and noise comparison based on worn old tires though I assume? These days tires last so damn long it's hard to compare like-for-like, I know. Every time I get new tires I'm amazed at how quiet they are. Especially as I've owned certain tires that howl like banshees when worn. (then again, I wear them down too much in the dry season).
Uhh, look around: almost all economic growth is derived from innovation.

The entire medical industry's growth is based on innovation.

Do you think the medical industry is growing because it's 'digging more resources' out of the ground?

'Cutting more trees'?

The entire financial industry, basically all of high tech.

Education.

Very few sectors depend on 'natural resources' for growth.

And even for some that do, it's minimal.

Most materials are abundant anyhow.
This could just be a strategic play by Tesla. I’ve heard NVIDIA’s hardware is extremely expensive. If Tesla can commoditize it by helping AMD, then it’ll help their bottom line. Interesting that this announcement stripped $5B off NVIDIA’s market cap, and added about $1B to AMD.
That people has self-determination rights based on allegedly cultural and historic reasons is very weak point, and ignores the rule of law.

But what is more worrisome is that it ignores the rights of the other group. What about the Spanish, not from Catalonia, that have interests in Catalonia, be it companies, properties, families or even just cultural links? Shouldn't they have an opinion on the matter?

Unsurprisingly yes, and that's precisely what the Constitution says. And that's the supreme law, and I have not seen any other reasonable country where a subset of it is claiming so freely to withdraw the Constitution because they don't like it, even when there are very clear paths to change it.

It Catalonia wants to vote, go to Parliament and ask for a referendum of all Spaniards (that's legal). It's that simple.
But why would they want a pale imitation of something else, instead of the good food they already have? Why bother trying to build the best handicapped product?

Sprouted superfirm tofu is a great base meat. It's fine raw and can be spiced and dressed any which way. Who needs to fake ground beef -- the cheapest meat cut there is?
The educators, by and large, aren't. It's the parents and politicians leading these ridiculous charges, over the objections of teachers.
> platforms which distribute more criticisms of US policy to more people on a daily basis than most revolutionary subversive movements manage in their entire history

This characterization of dissent is highly misleading. Dissent should be thought of as speech that the powerful interest actually wants to suppress.

In the US, our powerful interests love speech such as "Trump is a clown" or "Obama is not a US citizen" because they are nonsense issues that have nothing to do with policy, yet they animate voters effectively.

To the powerful interests, the ideal electorate is one that is deeply passionate about issues that pose no threat to the status quo. To use a more specific example, much campaign funding is raised by rallying groups to donate based on issues that are unlikely to result in policy change.
Strongly agree with you.

It's not 'empathy' if you don't notice it until it affects you personally

Being affected personally at one time can (and, I assume, often does) help one develop empathy, though.
I don't know, that sounds arbitrarily limiting. Everyone should be allowed to participate.

I just think that technology has allowed to seek support and sustenance while one fights for a cause. When the support is gone, you go back to earning your living. No strings attached in either direction. Employment of representative, and continuous patronage by the represented, at will.
Fantastic! Thank you for taking the time to respond.

Musk said that it would cost more to retrofit an AP1 Tesla to AP2 than it would to buy an AP2 Tesla outright. Perhaps they've designed the AP2 hardware with that in mind and down the line will offer hardware upgrades.
The sidewalks in my city are a joke. They're incredibly broken and irregular. The streets have potholes that last for months before filled, if at all. Infrastructure in a lot of cities of the U.S. is so piss poor, and I don't know why it isn't made more a priority in our country.
It is not "certainly" a basic right. Some countries accept it, others do not.

As for the cultural, language and historical I see absolutely no basis for this referendum. Cultural wise I have never, ever, see the slightless difference between catalonians and people for the rest of Spain. What will be the difference between someone that lives in Tarragona and someone from Valencia? Of course it's all a smooth change, and the farther away you go the more small changes you get, but I have seen much deeper differences between people living in cities vs rural areas (even when they are close to each other).

In any case, these differences are (to me) smaller than the differences between a New Yorker and a Texan.

Historically Catalonia has never been a separate, independent country, and you have to go pretty far away to get a substantially different Spain to what you have today.

Catalonia has a different language, that roughly 60% of their inhabitants do not speak, and that is shared by some of the inhabitants of the spanish states (Comunidad Valenciana and Balears).

If your point is that Catalonia people should be allowed to secede because they have a differenciate culture / language (let's ignore for a second all the catalans that do not speak catalan), why don't they call to vote in catalonia, comunidad valenciana and balears, all together? Because they will very clearly lose the vote.

In polls there are a huge number of catalans descendants from andalusia n "inmigrants" that are also for the independence. Why is it so? Because the reason argued again and again during years has been only one: taxes. Not "culture".

BTW, they wanted the Estatut to pass (it passed in congress), but you needed more than 1/2 the votes, you needed 2/3. If the Estatut had nothing against the Constitution, it will be law by now.
> class of devs

wait... what? is this marxist class struggle framing?

there is no 'class of devs' in this sense. there is no 'social justice' here.

bash is not a person, bash is not an identity, none of this applies.
Fair enough. Here Instacart costs a good deal more than that, but there are also cheaper alternatives. I will admit I've never used any of these services so I don't know what the prices look like, but if it's only costing you USD 6 to get groceries delivered but it's saving you a bunch of time and hassle, then it sounds like it'd be worth it for most people.
>Do you honestly believe schools, in almost all cases, schools kill the desire to learn and general enjoyment of living?

Yes, absolutely. They do. Teens enter high school full of life, and leave it bored and hating existence. Schools have progressively become more and more like prisons, and consequently students have begun to act more and more like prisoners. Schools were optimized to produce workers for repetitive manufacturing jobs which no longer exist.

> Is every single high-schooler in living hell?

Many of them are, yes. Perhaps check out the stats on how many use drugs to escape the hell? Or commit suicide? Or take to violence or shooting the place up? The harder you squeeze, the more people you will push over the edge.

>Everyone stops learning after school because they hate it? Nobody learns to code on their own, because they learned to hate learning?

I said almost (or was it essentially? It was some weasel word) because I knew someone would be bothered if I made an absolute statement. You're not going to get me to pretend like it is at ALL common for people to do those things because it flatly is not. The vast majority of people never read another book after leaving high school. They never sign up for an e-learning course. They don't even go Wikipedia-wandering. They limit their focus to their immediate environment, maybe taking in some sports or celebrity news on occasion, and everything else disinterests them.

If high school was an enjoyable place for students where learning is emphasized, would there be metal detectors on every door, police roaming the halls, surveillance cameras everywhere, lockdown once the schoolday starts, no leaving campus for lunch, dress codes enforced arbitrarily, people prevented from receiving a diploma because they wore something too edgy? Are these things conducive to producing a question-asking authority-challenging person who feels the world is theirs to engage with?

Have you ever watched TV? Like, any of it? Perhaps watched isn't enough... have you ever examined the fundamental basis it is produced against? For instance, take any sci-fi show. Who are the heroes? The researcher, the scientist, the intellectual, the one who sticks to their guns and the facts against the folks who want to just swing in with a gun and follow their hearts? No, those are the arrogant guys whose hubris drives everyone into the danger that the hero, the muscle-bound guy who isn't smart but follows his heart or 'instinct', can swoop in and save them from. See a character pick up a book in a sitcom and sound the seconds until someone makes a joke about them never getting a date. To be honest, that is all a bit of a wider topic than schooling and I don't know how much crossover there actually is between the anti-intellectual movement that's been growing since society saw science built tanks and mustard gas for WWI and horrible school environments.
