I'm not aware of any option in this country (edit: the US) that will handle massive use of streaming video. All of the plans without overage charges have a soft limit where they start throttling you.

In any case, I'm not going to pay a bunch of extra money every month just in case I forget about the WiFi.
For sure, that’s what killed the Pebble watch for me.

I got it home, opened the box, thinking I had a new watch!

Nope. You have to connect it to the internet and let it phone home first. It would not tell time, permit you to manually set the time, or let you explore that watch at all, until it spoke with it’s mothership.

I put it back in the box, and tossed it in the closet, and it’s still there, and now it’s completely unusable because the company collapsed.
Show HN: A Hacker News Reader Built in React Native
Hello!

Over the past few months, I've been working on a side project to gain an understanding of the React Native workflow. I decided to create a Hacker News Reader app.

Coming from an iOS background, I gotta say that this has been an amazing ride and I'm looking forward to creating more apps in RN.
I'm planning on open sourcing my implementation over the next few days, but I felt like sharing what I've done, first. :)

All feedback/comments are welcome and I'm also open to answering any questions.

Let me know what you think!

At most, your brain can run with 75% ketones/25% glucose. Other organs (kidneys, red blood cells, cornea) need about 15-25 grams/carb per day. If you do not get glucose from diet, your body will build it (gluconeogenesis).

Must see if you want to understand/practice keto right:

Obviously whatever decompiler was used here decided to do it the other way.
Noes. Only you.
I'm setting up my last machine for my wife for gaming. Athlon X4 630, and 16 GB of RAM. I loaded windows up and said it had ~2 GB free and I was like "oh crap, the RAM sticks must be dead" (because the last motherboard that I just replaced broke some RAM slots).

I fixed my old video card, a GTX 560, and wanted to see what it could run. I loaded steam and PUBG said "invalid platform error". It took me a moment. I hit alt-pausebreak, presto, Windows 32-bit. Whoops.

Hadn't had that problem in a long time except at clients running ancient windows server versions complaining about why Exchange 2003 won't work with their iPhones anymore "it used to work and we didn't change anything!" (Yeah... but the iPhone DID change--including banning your insecure 2003 Exchange protocols.)
There’s no such thing as necessary carbohydrates. The body is capable of producing all the glucose it needs.
That's my point. The compiler's choice of "else if {" or "else { if" is unrelated to the programmer's choice.
That's not quite accurate, otherwise there wouldn't be a wide variety of things to choose with lower incomes.

You forget that the market responds to the total volume of buyers at various levels. There are a lot more people in the 0-150k bracket than the people in the 150k+ bracket and when you count the total spending in dollars by each category as a whole, the first group is significantly more powerful.

The most successful companies sell to the masses (McDonald's, Walmart, Google, Facebook). The rich have a much smaller influence on the market than you would like to think.
There is no such thing, not at any of the higher paying roles. I'm 6 months in to a new job right now and although I had some early wins for them, I'm definitely still learning my way through the systems, the people, and the overall organization. There are no shortcuts. 6-12 months is typical. That doesn't mean you should let an ineffective person hang around that long, though. This place fired another developer who started on the same day as I did because he wasn't engaged and showing competent progress.

> I'm sorry, but you can't brush that subject off with a single sentence. It's a huge problem.

Sorry, I suppose I should've been clearer. Inequity is a problem, but not for bitcoin. I meant that since it doesn't (and might never) represent overall wealth that it's not very interesting how some slice of the population holds it.

> If you want a real currency, that is.

I'm okay with Bitcoin being something unlike any previous currency. I'm okay with bitcoin only being used by rich people, only being used by poor people, only being used by technophiles, or only being used by technophobes.

> And if Bitcoin would reach its goal

I doubt there's any consensus on whatever goal that might be. Bitcoin [supporters] like the idea of adoption, but I don't think many would assume it would eliminate the use or need for fiat currencies.

> ... we would have some new, anonymous and untouchable overlords that would make the feudal ones look like amateurs. No thanks.

I don't know how we got here. There's never been a more enabling technology. If in this odd analogy the "serfs" decide they don't like bitcoin they can use some-other-coin-that-they-prefer.
Location History is something different I believe. It's whether Android / Google stores the history of places you've been too. It says nothing about whether it's doing things with your current location.

On Android 7.x:

Settings -> Location -> Recent location requests, tap each service, tap 'Permissions' and revoke the permissions for each app that has it.

Settings -> Location -> Location services, tap each service and disable everything.

That seems to fix it for me. Of course, at some random time in the future, Google will enable them again. I'm fairly certain I disabled this a few times already.
It's interesting because I grew up without a phone and did very well. I think you're view is just warped by your own social circles.

But isn't that what membership of the EU gives the UK today? So give up the membership, you give those up to. It's kind of the whole point of the EU.
What do you guys think about how it compares to Rx? There are opinions about they are on a different abstraction level so they don't compete with each other.
SF seems to be one of the costliest cities of the West Coast. Does London compare favorably to other coastal cities? (In the EU, London has a reputation for being expensive)
Thank you. It’s interesting some people are ignoring the heart of the issue completely.
If you look at a presidential election as a negotiation between the political class and the electorate, or at the most recent one as an election that became a negotiation or interrogation, then the Trump voters who went for him as a “fuck you” to the system are better understood in this framework. So are the Clinton voters who reportedly stayed home. They felt victimized by the system, like their vote was a bargaining chip that the political class wanted to manipulate them into casting, and not a token to use to communicate their needs to their supposed representatives.

Clinton’s and her supporters’ hectoring about being the lesser of two evils (voter-blaming, the Bernie Bro smear, and not-really-a-progressive who gets things done come to mind) suddenly seem especially inept. The bad news is that the parties seem to want to continue in their disdain for voters, which will continue to be reciprocated. The good news is that even Bernie could come up with a message that resonated enough to get as far as he did with as few connections as he had. Someone else could do the same.
Very nice, but the website looks down. Looking forward to play more.
Are you talking about "var"? Because that shouldn't affect your performance, this generates equal IL code:

var x = 10;

int x = 10;
It's been many, many years since I earned my MCSx certs and, fortunately, I rarely touch a Windows box these days so I am very likely wrong... but it seems to me that the following scenario is possible.

A domain controller also acts as a DNS server. "Forwarders" can be configured, or the DC can "go direct" and perform (recursive) resolution on a client's behalf. A client that could be convinced (should be relatively easy?) to issue a certain DNS request (which would be sent to the DC) would cause a malicious response (assuming a malicious authoritative DNS server) to be sent to the DC. In the case where the DC is an affected (unpatched) Windows 2012 server, this would result in a compromise of the DC.

Sounds feasible, in theory. I don't know enough about this issue to say for certain, though.

Thanks for detailed explanation, it delivered a sense to me and is in great touch with my own leading experience. I even stumbled on point 2, and it took me a month to clearly understand that it’s better to let employee go. But before that I made dead sure I’m objective and not elitist (evaluated task-times, insighted into persons thoughts and knowledge, investigated virtually everything I was aware of in situation). That was pretty stressful and happened few weeks right after my assignment, but later I got few hints from team members that it was an obvious thing to do.
Tensorflow does do really well when it comes to serving models in production. Tensorflow serving or TensorRT 3 are fairly throughput efficient and low latency. PyTorch, for instance, does not have a good serving solution (I guess that's where Caffe2 is useful)
Rich people can take risks. Poor people can't.
I've read a lot of, often conflicting, dietry guidance. I have realised one very important thing: humans will very easily accept that something they enjoy is bad for them (see fat, sex etc.) So listening to what people say is bad for them is stupid.

Instead I have taken a simpler approach: I observe the lifestyles of people who are healthy and live a long time. I have observed that eating simply "good, old-fashioned" home cooked food is important. My grandmother lived into her 90s. Ate fat and carbs. Julia Child lived into her 90s. Ate fat and carbs. Edna Lewis lived into her 90s. Ate fat and carbs. I could go on. Just do what they did and you'll have as good a chance as any.
> Technically, decent idea. Realistically, you're hosting the stuff people don't want to pay to host.

That's some damn good clarity right there.
I’ve been <20g of carbs per day since February 2016. My athletic performance was impaired for the first 6-8 weeks, but has since increased dramatically.

At low circulating insulin levels, most cells in your body can efficiently metabolize fatty acids. For the minority of cells that cannot, your liver converts protein into sugar by a process known as gluconeogenesis.

It’s very possible to be a performance athlete and eat very low carb.
Anecdatum, but I play competitive basketball on a very low carbohydrate diet (<20g/day), and feel just fine, so necessary seems necessarily false.

The missing concept (in the brief quote in your comment) might be "fat adaptation", which takes (in my experience) 2-4 weeks (details: http://www.artandscienceoflowcarb.com/the-art-and-science-of... )

One certainly can fuel activity with carbohydrates, but a fat-adapted person should have no trouble with physical activity on a (very) low carbohydrate diet. Interestingly, a fat-adapted athlete can still use carbohydrates for supplemental fuel before, during, or immediately following extreme exertion (no adaptation is required for short-term use of carbohydrates).
So you can use this for what? Btw, I don't think you know what quantitative easing is. Explain to me why the value of USD remained strong all throughout the period of supposed money printing.
I agree, coroutines is good for the simpler use cases, while Rx is better for composed transformations. Not sure about using coroutines in prod though, while still experimental.
> Both of those are including the Network Grant

The result is that Virgin (as a whole) gets more from UKGOV than it sends back as shown in UKGOV's own figures.

> isn't entirely fair

You want to argue with UKGOV and their own numbers, go ahead, but it doesn't change what they currently are.
Fat is bad for some people, though. How satiated someone is by carbs or protein tends to be pretty consistent, but fat is more variable between individuals. Some people are just predisposed to overeating fats.
Their hearts are all in SFO, but their souls are in HEL.
I'm sure there is, in their eyes. But if the price of compliance with it is unacceptable, that doesn't move us any further forward.

"Moreover, there was no link to cardiovascular events or related mortality, except for saturated fats, which were unexpectedly associated with a lower risk of stroke."

That's interesting.
Me too! And only recently I setup purchased a software-controlled radio, specifically so that I could watch aircraft flying over Helsinki in real-time.

That's great to hear! Learning curve is definitely something that's tricky with a library like this (big, modular, with concepts that are unfamiliar to many), so I've tried to compensate with consistency and lots of documentation.
If you have multiple ISPs in your datacenters, you can announce different IP blocks over each upstream at each site and configure full mesh MPTCP between your sites to expose as much path diversity as possible, and have MPTCP switch to the most reliable path(s), kind of like a poor man's MPLS (in my experience bulk internet bandwidth is significantly cheaper than MPLS). I've implemented this as a demo not carrying a ton of traffic and it seems to work really well, but never got around to doing it full scale. Would love to do so.
Couldn't the same be said for every mass murderer? Columbine to Vegas. They all have some grievance, real or made up, I don't think understanding those grievances get us closer to understanding them on order to head of such reactions.

I believe it also fixes a lot of issues in day to day programming of non-boring projects where the average caliber of programmers is high.

The "me and my team are too smart and our project is too interesting to benefit from static analysis!" meme is silly.
Maybe it can't exist as long as there are those who seek the aggrandizement which leads to a consolidation of power. If you have a state that owns everything, there will be people that will abuse such authority. Could there be a communist economic model alongside a multi-party state model?
80m of exercise is enough to deplete muscle glycogen to as-near-zero as makes no difference.

In a sessile starvation state glycogen stops being a meaningful energy source after 2 days, with the majority of it depleted in approximately 8-12 hrs (it's non-linear).

Depending on one's baseline physical activity and what they mean by "half a day," sure, glycogen stores can be reasonably depleted.

That said, glucogenic amino acids can replenish glucose stores, which can ultimately become glycogen. Glycogen remains low only in the context of low-carb and low-total calories, so what glycogen is replenished is soon exhausted.
But this research says nothing about such a strict and artificial diet over a long period of time. I wonder, do you know of any people who have eaten keto all their life and lived to an old age?
I’d definitely would wait for the non-experimental release, just in case.
Lots of things are crimes in the US, but if you're part of the "special" class, you will not be prosecuted for them, e.g. Hillary Clinton.

As far as ageism goes, companies know exactly how to get away with it without undue legal exposure. Same as it ever was.

Note to all developers: YOU WILL GET OLD! Your mental faculties and physical abilities will fail you. Plan accordingly. You have a very fixed set of time to make the bulk of your income in life and there is a very steep tail off at the end unless you are extremely lucky, which most people who are unprepared will not be. You need to consider a backup career, something you can do if "knowledge work" can't happen for you for whatever reason.

I'm sure plenty of developers can work on into their 60s, but it's simply not realistic. Figure age 50-55 and out, or perhaps slide into a non-development role by leveraging your contacts and reputation. Otherwise, find the $10-15/hr. part-time job of your choice. That's how it is.

I don't think you described capitalism as an ideology. You seem to simply be talking about inefficiencies in capitalist execution.

Capitalism as ideology is a bit different. For example, if someone is rich, they are higher status, but not only that - they are assumed to have innate characteristics that make them better, such as discipline and intelligence. We've created, and this predates capitalism and allowed for its spread, a social system that equates wealth with social power.

That's a part of capitalism as an ideology. Another part is that people automatically view things in terms of cost. They weigh choices in monetary terms, as opposed to social, moral or physical.

I disagree with your example of capitalist inefficiency, as well - you've chosen a price equilibrium inefficiency but you're using that example to illustrate that a product is ill-suited for capitalism. It isn't; if the movie was priced correctly, the inefficiency would disappear. Plus, as you pointed out, there are negligible costs for distribution (it's not really zero, but who cares) so profits on a product like that would be significant. That seems to me to be a better product for capitalist exploitation than wheat.

It's been found that women generally look at job ads and find the things they can't do. They will feel underqualified and not apply. I think that's the reasoning behind taking out "several years", etc.

As a female junior software dev, I honestly would be more likely to apply to the revised job ad than the original. So, good job to them I guess.

Having used Virgin West Coast many times since they took over, sure, they are better than some. When they're not reeking of urine because the toilets have leaked -again-. Or when the aircon isn't broken. Or when the heating isn't broken. Or when the toilets actually work. Or when you can actually use a carriage because they aren't 200% overbooked due to Virgin's utterly insane customer hostile "peak" restrictions and the ridiculous waste of space by empty first class carriages.
Simple rule: I buy it, I own it and it should not need an external service to operate. If it does then I'm not buying it.

None of those grafted on services for me, I really have yet to see anything that was so compelling that I would give up and consent to essentially renting a device and having an account with some service to make it useful.

That way you also don't need to warn anybody about the lousy security, I'm 100% convinced that those companies that are exploited are merely the tip of the iceberg, that for each of these there are a vast multiple that were exploited but never found out and that the remainder also isn't as secure as they should be.

Running a secure service with devices in the field is hard, harder than I give most companies credit for and those companies that could pull it off (Amazon, Apple, Google, Microsoft and a couple of others) are usually the ones that I would trust even less with my data because of their ability to add it to the pile they already have.

I've been in software development for more than 20 years. Here are my 2 cents:

- Training, training, training! Without exception, all the technical managers that I've worked with had arrived where they were at based on technical merits. However, being a manager, especially being a leader have nothing to do with technical knowledge. Therefore management and leadership training is a must. This doesn't necessarily need to be an organized class, but being coached and mentored would be an amazing start.

- Management and Leadership are different skills. This goes back to my #1. One needs to develop both.

- Ideally, you become a servant of the team. You're there to help them become highly productive. Your first job is not to solve the technical problems yourself, not to micromanage everyone, not to command and control. You're there to create a self-managing team that can, ironically, work without a manager.

- You are there to ensure that their motivation and engagement are at a high level. One can be motivated by not engaged. You need to know the differences and the ways to increase them.

- You need empathy to become a good leader.

- You need to be a good communicator. And transparency is a great tool.

- You have to ensure that your team members become good enough to be able to leave your company and find plenty of jobs anywhere else, but also ensure that they wouldn't want to leave.
Oil is an extremely concentrated form of energy and your body will most certainly store it as fat if you eat too much of it.
Salaries were always (since I moved to the US in 1996 anyway...) roughly 2x the numeric value. So your UKP 50K == USD 100K comparison sounds right.

In my experience however this does not translate to actually being twice as wealthy :(
Do you have any recommended reading on your diet, and the potential problems of a modern milkshake-abundant one? I could just Google it but it's hard to cut through the noise/misinformation when researching diet stuff for the first time.

Mainly asking because my diet yesterday was a six pack of Kirin Ichiban beer, a double cheeseburger, and a large P. Terry's chocolate shake, and I felt fine and still had a very productive day. I want to know why I'm able to tolerate stuff like that, and how/if that armor might start falling off as I get older.
