It's a nice idea and really well executed but the second test just demonstrates to me how JS is not an ideal language for a beginner to learn as you're thrown straight into async execution and having to work around the fact that functions execute immediately with arcane workarounds.

I still think Python is the most straightforward to learn, even though the whitespace constantly catches beginners out too.

Center stage: Best practices for staging environments
Termux + full keyboard is a game-changer. That's how I run my 9" tablet, and whilst not quite the laptop-replacement I'd like it to be, it's closer than anything else I've seen. The fact that I don't have the critical weak point of the laptop hinge to deal with, and the portrait/landscape flexibility of a tablet (I read a lot of formatted docs) is tremendously useful.

TL;DR: Your Android device really is a fully-capable computer, if the goddamned vendors will just get out of your goddamned way.

Umm; did they just contradict themselves?
"We remain inside the Italian nation with more autonomy while Catalonia wants to become the 29th state of the European Union. We, no. Not for now." - So, they don't want to be seen like Catalonia, yet they say "Not for now" meaning they must be seen as such. I think the whole theory of giving certain regions extra autonomy while expecting that region to forever be part of the unified country has now been completely dumped.

You might also look at Servers Ultimate Pro from Ice Cold Apps. It has.... many servers. Perhaps too many. Perhaps enough that it looks like a "Hold my beer" response to a question about how many servers could actually be compiled for Android.

I wouldn't run most (any?) of them on a connection exposed to the real world, but at least in theory if you want to run an AAMP stack I believe you could, though on a quick glance you might actually have to be content with Nginx.

It seems like devs tend to ignore network latency entirely because it's something outside of our control. It seems to be getting worse too, things like the windows start menu can freeze when you're on a intermittent connection, SPA's can break entirely. I've spent a good chunk of my career fixing n+1 problems over a network, even when it's on a fast connection to a local database the latency becomes noticeable are fairly small values of n.

Would you please not reply to a bad HN comment by making the thread even worse? The site guidelines explicitly ask you not to do this.

Your account unfortunately stands out in my mind as one which has posted many nasty comments to HN over the years (as well as many good ones), so glass houses and all that. If you would read https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and post only scrupulously respectful comments from now on, we'd appreciate it.
Right on first point. Considering they are ranging the investment from public markets (nvidia) to large scale private investments like uber, I'd say they're banking on a ton of these companies going public long term to make the ROI worth it.

As for some of these questionable bets, I think the goal there is the traditional unicorn moon shot type return where 1 of those investments will return the whole "pool of smaller investments". I wouldn't be surprised if they put the funding in to pools and divide up the risk like that.

In general, I wouldn't be surprised if they invest in more public companies if they run out of late stage private bets to make.

As for whether they create a bubble, you might be right. Like I said, I can't/won't try to comment on whether it's a bubble or not. It's just strange because we have a large foreign entity making large scale private bets in the valley as well as abroad.

Having done a lot of data mining and analysis of Wikipedia (scanning its entire corpus several times, machine learning new representations, studying traffic and article growth stats, studying its ontological structure) I would like to make two suggestions: (1) In its current structure, Wikipedia is “almost complete”. For the way that articles are written, embellished with media, and organized there doesn’t appear to be much room for change to most of them. This should be concerning, because in reality Wikipedia is always only the tip of the iceberg for everything. (2) In order to inspire a new growth of editing and contributions to Wikipedia, which can expand the corpus by another order of magnitude, new systems for organizing and communicating knowledge need to be developed that can allow orders of magnitude more information to be elegantly incorporated into existing articles. If anyone is interested in pursuing this, I don’t suggest waiting for the bureaucracies and crowds to develop it (although would obviously be thrilled if they did); what’s in your power now is to fork the corpus yourself, and start a new open source initiative on its back. This is the classic case of how hard it is for big organizations to adapt in big ways (almost impossible), versus a small startup enterprise.

Trying to achieve the trust you are is very interesting.

I put up a simple, installable, progressive offline app of this crypto here: https://semocracy.com/

This app doesn't yet contain the mediations you talk about of checking the sw code against a 3rd-party reference and warning when an update doesn't match the reference.

Even considering the limitation you discuss when the new worker terminates async requests of the old worker, checking a public log is useful -- do you have any code or boilerplate I could plug in to achieve that?

Also, would the following be useful? The worker stores the 3rd party log / reference at intervals in local storage, and then when updatefound occurs, it doesn't need to make a network request, it can check (not perfectly) if the new sw code matches the stored reference. Sometimes there will be false negatives because the reference updated before the sw checked, but I think there would be no false positives. As long as the new worker can't get to localstorage before the old one checks, could be okay.

I think that might be incorrect since it's an easy first step for the body to snap the glucose of the fructose.
My point was that complex type systems also have down sides.
Even if you strongly favor algebratic type systems, you have to admit they are harder to learn (at-least initially).

The upside with golang is that it's simple and easy to adopt; tiny learning curve, and code + APIs are intended to be simple.

If you are messing around with complex patterns in golang to get more compile-time correctness checks, you are most likely not keeping it simple. And thus, have missed the most important upside to golang.
This drive-by criticism comes up every time Wikipedia is mentioned on HN. I've written a few articles on computer science topics and haven't been bothered at all by the roving gangs of bureaucrats. It's always a lovely experience.

If you write quality, researched articles on topics beyond those belonging to common knowledge and pop culture, your Wikipedia experience will be very pleasant. Since the HN readership is skews educated and technical, they are very well-equipped to write such articles.
> they will not succumb to spending the basic income on non-productive things

Actually, they can, there is no problem. Somebody still has to produce these things, and they have to pay them. So naturally, cost of these things is bounded from below by their supply.

As someone noted, you can look at rich people who don't have to work, they mostly don't do that.

Also, from ecological perspective it would better for people to spend most of the money on alcohol rather than say travel, because the ecological impact of drinking is much smaller. It's in fact interesting, because we tend to see unproductive things as bad, but they often have smaller ecological impact.

> It's also hard to see how that money would /not/ be extracted in the form of higher prices across the board.

Yes, the price of the labor would be higher, but that is the whole point. Although the best I think would be to tie the UBI to %HDP or income taxation, so that even if more is given to the productive people, the same portion is again returned to everybody at some point.

People get this intuitively wrong, because they don't understand that in basic money equation, there is also velocity of money. The UBI in fact artificially increases the velocity, by redistribution of money at many points in economy to everybody, forcing another redistribution from everybody to production.

> what happens to all the now-unskilled labour?

Why don't you ask this today in the context of disabled people, or retired people? It's really nothing to freak about.
> I think the whole theory of giving certain regions extra autonomy while expecting that region to forever be part of the unified country has now been completely dumped.

In Italy five regions have a far greater autonomy, for historical reasons. The proponents of the referendum would want something similar for Lombardy and Veneto, and in principle for all regions.
As far as I see it, they need the threat of independence so that they aren't ignored. "we aren't looking at it now, but if you don't consider our tax proposal, we'll have no choice but to look at independance more seriously"

Can we please stop calling hybrid vehicles "electric cars"?

This is also leading to ridiculous marketing tricks by carmakers where they only make the tiniest amount of changes to "technically" be able to call their cars an "electric car" while common sense-wise being as far away from an all-electric car as possible. This means minimal changes to their own cars while claiming they've "adopted the wave of the future."

So everyone -- especially the media -- please stop calling hybrid cars electric vehicles. You're not doing the electric car future any favors.
Accepting payments is complex work if you are a marketplace or have some kind of service that pools money and then disburse it. SimplyGuest rents shared houses; multiple people pay house rent which needs to be pooled together and then the aggregated money is disbursed to many vendors including the house owner. Its like n-to-1-to-n. I built this entire payments process and system by myself (if someone is interested they can read it here https://blog.simplyguest.com/payments/simplyguest-payments.h...). It took me many months, but the end result wasn't very good. Moreover, its not a core service SimplyGuest provides.

I integrated Cashfree last month for both collection and payouts at SimplyGuest. Prior to this I had to upload a carefully crafted excel sheet into a nodal account using a bank website which works only in a particular computer and then send the same instructions in a slightly different format to the bank officials who sit in Mumbai; sometimes when I call them they are off to lunch or having a cup of coffee, and I needed to keep track of which festivals Mumbai celebrates! Or else, these instructions may not get processed. Its such a waste of time.

Cashfree fits into my workflow perfectly, allowing me to automate payments. Their settlement time is good too. That was the primary reason I preferred Paytm over Razorpay. But Cashfree is a good alternative to Paytm, Instamojo and Razorpay.

Thanks Reeju and Akash. You guys are good. I wish you all the best.

> I suspect that 'a jet that generates double the pollution so that rich people can get to their destination faster' is dead on arrival.

The Concorde actually burned almost 8x as much fuel per passenger-mile as a 747. However that still only brought it down to 14 passenger-miles per US gallon. In the US the average car gets 25 mpg[1], so they're on the same magnitude. A modern supersonic jet would probably get closer to if not better than an average car, but that's also nullified if you put more people in the car. NB that the ban is on selling, not owning, as far as I know.

So yeah on a per-pollution basis it checks out, but the car ban can happen because electric cars are essentially identical and completely substitute-able. I seriously doubt it would happen if electric cars could only drive half the speed of gasoline cars. I could see a carbon tax but I think a ban is very unlikely. Airplanes are just too efficient, and get well over 100 mpg nowadays.

UBI will work even in an environment where many people have no marketable skills, while negative income tax would just be the state sponsoring activities with no real value.

We're not there yet, but the odds of ending up there sooner or later is very high.

(Negative income tax could still be good if the activities themselves have a positive social value.)

I haven't been keeping up with Magic Leap (ML) or recent Mixed Reality developments, but skimming the currently available information, my best guess is that Magic Leap is making a completely new system from hardware, to software and even content. Sort of like back in the Apple Lisa days, pre-1984 when the Macintosh was unveiled.

I've only heard of Microsoft and Avegant (that I just googled) working on Mixed Reality. The problem with these two and anyone other than Magic Leap is that they're only working on making the tech. They're not making a complete platform. Of course they could leverage existing platforms (PCs or Consoles) but then the interfaces would mostly be translations of them. Not that ML has shown anything better, but I get the sense that what's in development is that better platform. From history we can see how a platform arises. Imagine planning the iPhone/AppStore and building iOS and starter content for it. It's going to replace current movies, video games, and computer systems.

Oculus is making a complete platform but their bet is on VR not MR. It could likely be adapted to MR if that gets better traction, but without blatent copying of the human interface it would be a sub-par experience.

Anyone know if Microsoft or anyone else is actively developing an MR environment for market?

> Pichai says he’s also considering promoting vetted news sources in Google’s News search results—elevating, say, articles in the Las Vegas Review-Journal over posts on the anything-goes bulletin boards 4chan or Reddit Inc. “We want to be balanced in making sure a range of perspectives are available, but I think a flight to quality is important,”

This is coming from a company that fires people who have different opinions. Even if Google's track record was spotless I still wouldn't trust a single company with my news.
I personally prefer something like:

> type Options struct { ... }

> func myMethod(arg1 string, options Options) {...}

Then have people pass in "Options{}" and let the zero-values imply default.

But most of the time, if you are making things complex, you're missing the whole point of golang. The innovation in golang is it's simplicity, if you miss that, then you might as well code C++ (which have more features for these kinds of things).
That's a conspiracy theory, indeed. If you want to prepare a war, you don't want "pacified" population. I can imagine somebody combining UBI with some sort of fascism, just like leninism did it with marxism, but by itself.. I don't see how alone it could be misused.

A bit off-topic, but a thing I've always found puzzling is octopus intelligence.
