Learning from topical anecdotes. Whenever some new complex deployment tool is posted, the comments are full of people posting things like "We solve this problem at my company with Ansible and systemd" and "If you're on AWS, you can use

I'm addicted to low effort novel information-- like more addicted than I've ever gotten to Scary Epidemic-Causing Drugs-- and this site provides lots of low-effort information in the content and in the comments. The clean UI and possible relevance to my job bias HN over less targeted competitors
I don't want to be too specific, but one of the best 'cooks' that I've known was the ADA and now holds a higher elected position.

A significant portion of the American public would be outraged and would be screaming about censorship. Others would be elated.

It would be pretty interesting to see what the response would be, because Trump would no longer have an easy, low-effort medium to get his message out. Would he just turn to a right-wing social network like Gab? Would he just use traditional media instead?
I'm addicted to getting new content, hoping to read something new, that'd give me a high of finding quality content.

In other news, I'm very fucked up that I allow myself to fall into these positive feedback loops that can diminish my quality of life.
Productivity measured against what quality metric? For getting code written fast, Lisp is pretty good. For writing an operating system on which you can run a web server that will be competitive with nginx on Linux in terms of requests-per-second, probably not so much.
Should we have a valid debate on the moral cost of enslaving X people to serve Y people? Would this be moral if the gain to Y is greater then the suffering inflicted upon X?

If this is debatable, I've, ah, got lists for X and Y.

If 3D printers were not just affordable but infallible, yes. It would be easier to have a bioreactor bubbling away to synthesize your pharmaceuticals than to try and make a lab-in-a-box kit that was equally robust (more like brewing kombucha in your kitchen than Breaking Bad for Dummies), but either way you still need to assay the results...

Most bootcamp grads go to big cos, especially outside of tech, and mostly not to startups.
It's not happening in a meaningful way. The technology for a decentralized web is already here -- it's just the normal web. Our artificial legal barriers are what keep it centralized, and those will be an issue regardless of technical innovation.

Legalize scraping and fix copyright law so that users can truly assert ownership over the content they generate, and this will quickly become a non-issue.

P2P technology is cool and it has its uses; I'm even developing a decentralized distribution thing as a side project. But it is more work, which means in the typical web browsing use case, it is slower and less convenient than a conventional 1:1 conversation with a stable endpoint.

Suggesting that everyone introduce four hops of latency or that we all participate in a multi-billion device DHT (which all just translate to "much slower" to the typical user) is just not a practical solution to these problems.

The good and correct solution is to look to the root cause and fix it. That root cause is the incentive structure, including legal and financial arrangements, that heavily encourages the "AOLizaiton" of the web and allows the AOLizers to use the courts to clobber the hackers that try to re-liberate it.
There's no key with special privileges. You're probably remembering "weak subjectivity," which is basically an acceptance of things like publicly known checkpoints every now and then. Anyone who's online continually doesn't need to rely on a checkpoint, but in PoS someone new coming in would need it...but this isn't all that different from needing to find out what software they need to run. E.g. Vitalik writes:

"It solves the long-range problems with proof of stake by relying on human-driven social information, but leaves to a consensus algorithm the role of increasing the speed of consensus from many weeks to twelve seconds and of allowing the use of highly complex rulesets and a large state. The role of human-driven consensus is relegated to maintaining consensus on block hashes over long periods of time, something which people are perfectly good at. A hypothetical oppressive government which is powerful enough to actually cause confusion over the true value of a block hash from one year ago would also be powerful enough to overpower any proof of work algorithm, or cause confusion about the rules of blockchain protocol."

> Imagine the carpenters were like programmers. You bought a chair. You bought it because you've inspected it and found out that it fulfills all your needs. Then, every other day, the carpenter turns up at your place and makes a modification to the chair.

505 Bad Analogy. Carpenters work all the time on new designs and better chairs. When a programmer releases a new version of his program, it's like when the carpenter made a new chair and put it up on sale on Amazon or ebay (aren't these kind-of like package managers for physical goods?). You may want to buy that new one, but you may also not. Similarly, nobody forces software upgrades down your throat. But sometimes the people change, they want to sit on divans or nail-beds instead of chairs, the carpenters follow the trends and produce those instead of chairs, and people expect to find these when they come to visit you. You can say "sit on chairs or f*ck off!", but you can't avoid the consequences: loneliness. Similarly, you can hold on to your select programs in select versions, maybe backport patches for them, but the protocols change, the services change, world goes on. You may say eff-off and stick to your programs, but the consequence is that it'll become harder to share experiences and information with others, both ways. Nobody fixes or modifies your stuff should you not want them to, they may try hard to sell and bug you, but you always are the one that buys. Mobile phones do by default, but you can opt-out.
We’re building the wiki engine https://www.nuclino.com based on Prosemirror. It would be great to get your feedback on it!

You might consider reading "Manufactured Consent", by Noam Chomsky.
He spent 1,000 DASH / (4,000.00 [USD/BTC] / 300.00 [USD/DASH]) = 13.(3) BTC. At this point I think it counts more as diversification.

Someone on Wall Street is. And as long as there is a sucker to be sold to, the charade will continue.
There's something to be said to applying a formula to a torture debate.
If you glance at the people who write their op-eds, which range from hyperconservative to moderately conservative, you will see they have no intention of presenting a wide range of popularly supported views and have not for a long time, they are interested primarily in defending the status quo as gatekeepers of what opinions are considered 'intelligent, reasonable' by defining the parameters of acceptable debate.

Not taking official positions allows a veneer of objectivity, and gives weight to them when they do come out (on bipartisan positions clearly in the national interest like supporting the Iraq war, for example!) but really I think what this is about is allowing the NYT corporation to find justification to fire uppity journalists for the sake of 'unbiasedness' who step out of line. This directive essentially says "while you work at NYT you are banned from using the Internet", so expect it to be enforced very selectively.
It isn't exactly a platform, but it sounds like you would be well served by The Theoretical Minimum [0]. The courses [1] start at classical mechanics, but the second one is QM and builds from there. They are all taught by Leonard Susskind, who is a fairly big name in the field.

There are two books available specifically tied to The Theoretical Minimum [2], but I'm not sure how they related or tie into the video lectures as I have not read them myself.

The 1% also has access to bitcoin. I would love to see the yearly incomes of people who invest in bitcoin and than we shall see about this "bitcoin is for everyone" rhetoric. Actually in fact, i would love to see a lot more transparency about the people who do invest in bitcoin, so the bitcoin story can be developed supported by more facts. So that way we will know who the interested parties are which will tell us lots about it.

The censorship issues you describe are describing people that already have money, so i don't know how these people don't follow in the above category. It sounds like these people don't want to pay any gov tax, well those are the kind of people that should stop using any of the services that society pays for using tax. They wouldn't go very far if that was to happen would they. I don't feel bad for them. If gov tax is such a big issue, why even live in society, money surely came to your pocket from society in the first place, you had to make it somehow, whether legally or illegally. So you definitely benefited. Essentially you are stealing from everyone in society when you are attempting to avoid tax or tariffs when moving your money out of the country. How much money do you really need man? The people that are investing in bitcoin are not living on a dollar a day.

Bitcoin is not for everyone and it does not make it easier for wealth to be distributed or aids upward mobility unless you count the early adopters which a lot of them just so happen to be insiders in the first place. Similar to insider traders.

Borders aren't going anywhere for a while. The real question is if these people have this money that are scared that it might be taxed or prevented from going out of the country. How did they make it in the first place?

The points you bring up have to do with people which do not want to support the society in which they live. They want to take more of the pie and bitcoin is an avenue for that at a larger scale than before.

I'm not looking for moral high ground here, but i just don't see how it benefits the regular population.

Ladies and gentleman, time to buy, it has been noted that suddenly bitcoin will solve the US health insurance problem. Right...

Smuggling will always occur before and after bitcoin.

> It's the best community surrounding general tech discussion

Do you mean IT, or really tech in general?

For example, I don't see that many posts here about biotech.
For those of us who have no clue what you're talking about, could you please take the time to explain what you mean? For example, what are the better ways to manage front-end state? How does this project violate the single-responsibility and open/closed object-oriented design recommendations? Is there anything the author could do to address your concerns?
> Also, if you read some other threads on HN, there is a strong sentiment that Bezos is "shaking down" North American cities to determine which one is most willing to bend to his will for a secondary headquarters

There's also some sentiment in the Seattle investor/business community that Amazon is using the opportunity as a threat to the city. That it's willing to expand somewhere else if the city doesn't become more friendly towards Amazon's demands/preferences. This certainly lines up well with the idea that Amazon announced a HQ2 without actually naming a city, leaving the media buzz and PR to influence the city of Seattle.

Though these are all rumblings I've heard and should be taken with a grain of salt.
I wouldn't waste time on a designer. it looks pretty awesome.
The cognitive overhead is really not about type annotations. It's about program structure. If you watch the video, I think there are some good points made.

Is the driver supposed to try and figure out if they get to be more aggressive? I don't think that's the point at all.
It isn't even the basics of the synthesis chain that are difficult. Most (small molecule) stuff a lab chemist could whip up a batch of given a bit of time and reasonable access to precursors.

But this is exactly like saying "Reddit is just a few SQL queries, a reasonable programmer could whip up their own version in a weekend." Just like there is only one reddit/StackOverflow/Facebook even though plenty of people have the same basic idea, even knowing the chemical formula doesn't help that much. The trick is in the execution: generating reliable quantities of reliable strength and without any contaminants.

There is a whole field, process engineers, devoted to this quite difficult problem.

To chose one hero would be too tough. I try to incorporate the best qualities of my heroes into my life. There are close family members and friends whom, I respect and love. For many reasons. There are everyday heroes, we just don't get to know as many of them. Impact on people's live is relative, alot of the people we read about have a small impact on many peoples lives. These people have had a huge impact on a couple of people's lives.

Speaking of small impact on many people's lives, I absolutely love to read biographies/profiles of people and companies. Some of my favorites include: Abe Lincoln, Ben Franklin, Elon Musk, Steve Jobs, Aldo Leopold, Jerry Garcia, Einstein, Alan Turing, Ted Turner, Brian Cranston, Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson, Bernie Sanders, Richard Branson, and so many more...

And then there's people like Jesus, Marcus Aurelius, Marx, and the Budda. Who seem to have made an impact on another order of magnitude.

(Not joking about Jesus... I'm not necessarily religious but Jesus was a radical dude who lived a radical life and spoke radical messages. Pretty cool when you think about it in a historical context. There are some valuable lessons to be learned from him.)

Even after knowing and reading about the stories of many great people who have lead unique and innovative lives. I still am blown away by the life of Marcus Aurelius. His life was a rare intersection of power, compassion, philosophy, and understanding. Reading Meditations was a major inflection point in my life. I try to emulate his example in some ways.
ClojureScript is great with Reagent or re-frame... If you write Angular use TypeScript. If you use React, ClojureScript! It's a match made in heaven.

Wouldn't be so sure about Tesla since it has yet to turn in a meaningful profit. SpaceX is a maybe since we don't know its internal finances. We're also ignoring SolarCity, which by any metric was a failure.
The natural response would be instead of fighting a government with an army, experiment and build the structures that you would like to see, without dogma, learning as you go. When these structures solve enough problems for your community, a democratic country may peacefully transition.
I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic (it's hard to tell on the internet), but just in case:

All the things you list have either been already implemented in the EU, or their implementation is being actively discussed.

The gradual loss of sovereignty (the so-called "salami method") is also what prompted many people to vote for Brexit. Not everyone was a knuckle-dragging racist.
Yes this is true for nearly any meaningful online ratings: Amazon, Imdb, Yelp. Negative reviews are the more reliable indicator.

The new Right Of Way law has theoretically helped this in New York, but it's rarely invoked and the consequences are usually a few thousand dollars and cancellation of your driver's license. I don't think anyone has ever seen jail time for it, and the only cases that are prosecuted under this law are cut-and-dry, video evidence available, driver clearly behaved recklessly and killed someone.

The companies with the best glassdoor reviews are most likely the companies that know how to "hack" the system. For instance, a former consulting company I worked for made leaving a "glassdoor review" semi mandantory as part of the onboarding process. So right after you onboard with all the rah rah rah about "unique culture" and "fun environment" you tend to leave a review to that effect. This particular company tended to have a 5:1 ratio of "this place is awesome" to "This place is awful" comments. I also think that if you see a lot of responses from the CEO for negative reviews that lean toward defensive then you need to view that as a red flag. I personally would see GD as one of several indicators not a final word on where to work. If you can spot a trend such as "So much unpaid overtime" or similar negative post, you can probably trust it as being at least semi accurate. However, one persons great company is anothers personal hell, so you need to decide if the place is a fit for YOU.

That said, I am a big fan of ROLIs products, and the JUCE framework is a great audio/plugin framework used by tons of companies in that arena. Seeing the 2/3 reviews makes me sorta sad, but I can see how they would have to be a lean, long hour hard work wearing many hats kinda place. Building semi pricey gear for musicians is a hard sell, as musicians are usually a lower income segment of the population...
wait can you seriously do that?
I see it as I'm going to be on the hook for hosting a child porn gallery at some point
I'd also add that I don't know anyone capable of always being unbiased. At best, it seems like we can acknowledge our biases and try to counter them, but I've never met anyone who can do so constantly.

It's like the test that Harvard put out that shows we are all at least a little prejudiced. I was a little surprised by my results, as I'm racially mixed. I didn't want to admit it was true but I spent a while pondering and, indeed, I have my prejudices.
That's a very left-wing view of things - I don't necessarily disagree with it, but I think there are far less drastic changes that can be made to achieve a comparable result.

You'll have a hard time selling a plan like that to anyone even slightly right leaning - think about it politically for a second. The government decides what drug development gets priority? Remember the death panels talk from a few years ago?

It's viable, but involves a lot of trust in government, so much that even as a fairly left-leaning person myself I'd have to think twice about it.

It usually has higher quality material, and far superior comments and discussions, compared to the easily gamed, largely trolled, and heavily spammed alternatives.

Also, the user base is usually data driven and fact centric, which is increasingly rare in the post-fact era.
...because it is (generally) the inverse of the "don't read the comments" advice that works so well over the rest of the net.

I'm mostly looking at headlines, reading a couple of comments to get the gist, and then reading articles only if there is interesting commentary.
I like the idea. And I can't possibly see how this could go badly...
But what if there is a significant correlation between protected and unprotected class? Like, what if black people are much less likely to wear a suit?
As far as I remember, they were able to do copies of the iPhone. (I guess, similar to a nandroid backup on android devices. Explicitely asked if that needs root, and he said they don't need root or any modified bootloader stuff at all.)

They also had jailbreaks/exploits for 10.2 (or the latest version at ~2 months ago)
I of course agree with decreasing bullying. However, bullying itself is not a reason ever to go on a rampage. There is no guarantee that had they not been bullied that they would not have engaged in psychopathic behavior.
