I really wish that HN had a rule where it would be mandatory for commenters to disclose their holdings in any cryptocurrency threads. This would make it easier to flag comments that look like they're just pumping a coin to improve its search engine status.

If you're praising Bitcoin, EOS, IOTA or whatever FooBarToken, please add a short note at the end to explain what you stand to gain. Either: "I'm long IOTA", or "I don't own IOTA and have no plans to initiate a position on the short term".

Similar rules apply at forums where penny stocks and other volatile traditional securities are discussed, so it's absolutely not an unreasonable thing to ask.

They certainly didn't get so addictive by chance, but not quite by design either. It's a kind of evolution, where some machines suceeed and some fail, with successful techniques carrying through to newer machines, eventually leading to hyper-optimised money making devices. Whilst not disputed that this leads to ethically dubious profits, I can see how it allows the manfuacturers a certain plausible deniability as to their intentions.
So the browser itself doesn't know the IP. Then you don't have to worry about, say, a WebRTC bug leaking your IP. You also gain a considerable degree of protection from browser bugs in general.

I have a relative who moved to the US a couple of years ago. A one-way ticket costed _more_ than a round-trip, so he and his family bought roundtrip tickets. They flew normally but obviously never caught the flight back.

You've basically described a lot of mobile games though. Candy Crush for example. At first you just play for free but then cleverly they put in a level that most people can't get through so you buy the in-app purchase to let you bypass that level to get to easier addictive levels. I ended up deleting the game when I realized what was going on, but I ended up paying $20-$30 dollars before that -- it really is a similar psychological draw as to gambling -- except you can't make money in Candy Crush -- only spend it.

With a mechanical slot machine I can understand the reel thing. But with electronic screens, software making up reels, how do I know that the software does not fool me even more?

Take the given example with first slot 1/16, second 1/32 and third 1/44 chance of winning big. Now assume the generated numbers are really random, and that day or week the machine has given two big prices. Then a third big number combination is created, and here a new rule takes over, changing one of the numbers so the price is smaller.

Is this regulated or how does this work?
This article is remarkable because there is typically very limited accessible blogs about topics like this. This long article requires in-depth knowledge of a large number of microcontrollers, and the time, desire, and ability to verify, collate, and summarize all that information. That's a rare combination.

An ordinary journalist could not write this article. It would take hundreds or thousands of hours to gain the domain knowledge required to understand what needs to be written up and described - it demonstrates a deep understanding of topics like ISR latencies, peripheral compatibility, memory and instruction requirements, and other stuff that really matters to engineers but is typically beyond the reach of a casual reader. As a result, news in the field is very, very rarely unbiased, informative reviews - there are a lot of 'new product' press releases unsubtly promoted as 'articles'.

An embedded systems engineer at some company building a product using these microcontrollers would not write up this article. Not only is the comprehensive knowledge required uncommon even among skilled engineers, it would take dozens of non-billable hours and would make it easier for competitors. And we typically have very narrow domain expertise, so the ability to create a website and rich blog experience like this would be unusual. (The database issues the site had under load this morning are excused!) Open-source and information sharing are not commonplace within embedded systems development.

And you won't be able to easily generate this comparison yourself without a lot of work. You might think that the numbers described would be front-and-center on the first page of each datasheet for these microcontrollers. But you'd be wrong, or at least naive. Each manufacturer's marketing department exaggerates their numbers in slightly different ways, so the first page of the datasheet is inevitably worthless bull shit.

Have you found a plug-in that handlea autocompletion/find references/go to definition as well as SlickEdit or Eclipse?

I tried ctags and a few others for autocompletion, etc. They were super complicated to install and use. Also they do not find references properly, having a bunch of misses or false positives.

I like Vi style editing, but I found it better to use a real IDE and find a Vi plug-in for it.

Because the implementation of all the complexity within would be much buggier if they tried to pull it all off from scratch. Also, it would be more expensive.

The official application of ME is, well, about managing the hardware. This means it has to work with lots of different components, including coordination of the resources available. When you think of it, that's pretty much the definition of an OS. Instead of writing their own one, they decided to use one of the ones already available.

I have wondered if not postfix is more suitable for writing math expressions. Yes, for simple expressions like 2*3+4 postfix is cumbersome, but for more complicated ones I think it has benefits. F.e: "k fac ln 2 ^ -1 ^" would be "1/ln(k!)^2"

It is easy to see that the postfix expression is just a composition of a bunch of functions "fac ln 2 ^ -1 ^", but not so easy in the infix case. It is also easy to derive the inverse of it: "-1 ^ 1/2 ^ exp fac^-1"
Because they probably are required to do the same under whatever legal jurisdiction they fall under.

I see Patagonia has redone the way the bag opens up and loads. Looks like a big improvement although I still prefer bags that are basically one big compartment; I just use my own organizers which are more versatile.

To your basic point, fully agree. I expect that at least some of the carryon issues are the result of business travelers taking rollaboards for one-night trips. Like you, I find soft over the shoulder/backpack bags a lot more versatile as well as being more space efficient. Yes, some people can't easily carry the weight but that describes a small portion of travelers.
Regional domestic travel in the US is shit — it’s not particularly profitable, and ends up with many monopolies. Flying between major cities/hubs is generally comfortable and efficient, albeit a hair expensive, but trying to go anywhere small is problematic.

What makes the PR situation around this worse is a lot of once-a-year flyers traveling to see family for Christmas (or weddings or funerals) have this as their flying experience. This is both subject to delays (because winter, and specific circled dates on a calendar) and often is when the system is running near full capacity. Thus, air travel as most people experience it is very different from air travel as experienced on most trips — the denominator matters, but it is hard to solve.

Mastering PostgreSQL in Application Development
As I write this, I think you have a typo there; 94-97% payout on $1000 is $940-970. (But I am confident it is just a typo.)

And you sort of state this, but I'd empasize that's per spin; for a $1 spin, the casino expects to make 5 cents and give back 95 cents... but then they expect you to put those 95 cents right back in with high probability, meaning that you can now expect .9025 of the original dollar, which again they expect you to put back in... it doesn't take much math to understand where this value is headed if you keep feeding the machine its own output.

I have thought before that if you must play the slots, but you want to retain the possibility of winning, the right way to do it is to take $X, and play it through the machine once, keeping all the output separated. I mean, the right right way, statistically, is to set X to 0, but if you want to play for the enjoyment or whatever and still have a chance of winning something, this seems like the best strategy.

Google is increasingly returning irrelevant results in the effort to deliver the targeted content their advertisers want. I predict a future for a subscription funded search engine that just delivers lexically relevant results without all the bullshit. I for one would gladly pay to use something better than Google.

Fees in general for rental cars are awful. In the US at least there are also all sorts of taxes, concession fees, high hourly fees if you return at a bit later time than you picked up, etc. It can all add up to 30% or more of the total price so you need to make sure you're comparing apples-to-apples when you make a reservation.

On the plus side, most rental cars don't charge for canceling or missing a reservation, returning early, or just not showing up--so there's that.
I'm not as much of an expert as the writer of this page, but this looks legit. The major $1 microcontrollers that I've worked with (Atmel series) as well as the ones that have a LOT of buzz recently (The ST STM32F0 and TI's MSP420) are all discussed and compared.

Have you tried the NodeMCU? (Not suggesting it, as I actually killed mine when trying to program it, but more curious about whether you’ve compared it to the Wemos D1.)
I won't deny that the current Web is much more useful, on average, than it was back in the nineties when I started using it.

On the other hand, during that time the technology became immeasurably better - my first dial-up connection was 9.600 kbps if I remember correctly, now I have 4 Mbps; I didn't have a math co-processor back then and now we have multicore monsters of CPUs - and so on.

The question (to me) is not if the current Web is more useful, but if the increase in usefulness is anywhere near the technological progress?

At some point, the technological limits - like no YouTube because both the necessary download speeds and compression algorithms were not there - were replaced by something else. Back then we could believe that, in time, seeing the rate of progress, we'll get everything we ever wanted. The tech advanced and now we could have all these things we dreamed about, but don't - because of political and economic factors.

Yes, the Web improved drastically, despite a couple missteps (like IE6) along the way. But I believe the improvement is much lesser than the current technology would enable were it not for non-technological factors.

On the brighter side, once developed, technology is here to stay, so if we deal with all the current problems we'll be free to advance the Web further. But that's a pretty big "if"...

Love LaTeX, but more a Perl dev, than Ruby or JS. No experience at all on Ruby, but used to JS (browser side). Also, love C, for what that might be relevant :-)

I am an OpenSource enthusiast, using Git (lab and hub), and working my first steps in CI.

I've been using ShareLaTeX since it was born. Lately, using OverLeaf, mostly to try to understand what is the best for my needs.

I live in Portugal, with same timezone as London. At the moment I am teaching (my background is academic life), but given the difficulties on getting a real "contract" on Universities in Portugal, I am planning to change my life. As I stick to my commitments, I would only be able to work full time on next September.

How likely would Overleaf be interested, given my background? I can send a full CV, but it is prepared for academic purposes, with the list of all publications and other stuff that usually are not relevant to industry.

Would love to exchange some ideas on collaboration possibilities.

Best,
