Do you keep your money under a couch?

I understand that there are more risks to moving data around but some companies will be better than you are at a thing.

It's very dependent on what your risks are. Data integrity is a big one, though non-siezability by US govt is important to others.
Personal experience. I used to frequent several private forums related to this sort of activity and had many friends who did this for a living. I am fascinated by the inner workings of these things, so naturally I asked lots of questions.

There used to be some public discussions on the alphabay forums, which was filled with small time bank fraudsters from both the US and the EU. The EU ones actually seemed much more prevalent.

I couldn't find many interesting scrapes quickly, but this one might be worth a look:

Ask HN: What encryption do you use to send files to unsophisticated parties?
That's the problem with this trade off. The small providers tend to have good support and someone you can reach if anything goes wrong but they won't have experts on site 24/7. The large ones have dozens of them on call at all times but lack in support (unless you pay a lot).

Reps from the company have posted here saying that you absolutely should be telling their customer service about this, and others have said that you can get refunds from them for the mistakes.

Kotlin covers all those features

- much simpler than Scala while still being much more expressive than Java

- clean syntax, with a higher consistency than e.g. Java

- Generics, Higher Order Functions, Multiline-Strings, Destructuring, ADTs, Pattern Matching

- Coroutines (experimental but production-ready)

- IntelliJ Community Edition (or Ultimate)

- not yet but will be possible with Kotlin Native

- has its own ecosystem but also has great interoperability with Java

- stable for quite some time, big community

- well, a little bit for reasons of Java-interoperability; on the other hand
Haven’t had to yet - they’ve only been around since the ‘30s and we haven’t quite used them all up yet.
It’s not as powerful for sharing correct information.

There are plenty of credible studies showing how people have a bias to believe things which confirm their beliefs.

That means it takes more information to convince someone something they believe is wrong.

So base fears of “the other” are always going to be easy targets for fake news purveyors.
Seems like a focus on money and everything fake has left us to this. This is very depressing.

1 pound bulk went from about $2 in the 1910's to $10 in 1920s back to $2 in 1930s. Adjusted for inflation and the chart data for years ending in 7's that's $34.49 in 1937, $136 in 1927, and $72 in 1917 per pound. Right now if you are a licensed producer you can sell bulk marijuana for processing for about $100 trim, $200-250 flower, in Oregon. So it sounds about right. It sells for $15 a gram retail, which is an incredible markup ($15 * 454g/pound = $6810 per pound) but the processors only get between 5-15% THC/CBD extraction yield per bulk pound, and for whatever reasons the retailers sell it at 100% markup.

Yeah, but Kotlin Native loses all the Java libraries. The more interesting thing would be Java native compilation coupled with Kotlin. So you'd write a Kotlin Java app and pass that through the Java native compiler introduced in Java 9. Unfortunately that's a beta feature right now, I think it only supports Linux x64, that's why I said Kotlin 2019, I assume that by then the Java native compiler will support all Java platforms.
> Regulation is easy. When you wield editorial control over what people see, you should also gain some liability for any problems your decisions cause. If you don't to have that responsibility, then you need to act like a common carrier.

So you think that Google should not be attempting to filter out fake news at all? Or just, should not be ranking search results at all? I don't know how else to interpret "act like a common carrier", but I don't see how either of those would be beneficial... to anyone.

It doesn't matter how much testing you do – unfortunately some things can still fail.

I'm much more interested in why the failure cascaded to other data centres – that's exactly what shouldn't happen.
The technique discussed is a kind of inversion of control, a concept which has a pretty long history (~30 years according to the wikipedia article). I've been writing React for a couple of months now and had settled on this method without knowing it was considered new or in anyway unusual.

I still have to gain experience as a day trader. But even if we lose everything, that's not really what it's about. As long as we have each other, everything will be fine. And if necessary, I'll find myself a job and start from scratch. But what if things go really well? If it makes us financially independent and makes possible the life we all dream about? Sometimes it's so wrong to take a step back. With a bit of luck, it'll bring you three steps forward.

What dangers can the update of .Net 4.6.1 to .Net 4.6.2 hide?
The problem is usually not "not reliable in cold" but rather, the generators are X years old and the temperature is now changing in Europe from "mostly warm" to "warm over the day and icecold in the night" and finally aiming for "icecold all day", which means any equipment exposed will go through rather severe temperature changes.

While generators are usually able to handle this with sufficiently low failure risk, the risk is increase due to the changing temperature

> Instead, the source of confusion lies in the way git works.

No, the source of confusion lies in the way diff algorithm works. And it
works like this for thirty years, and it works this way in virtually all the
other version control systems.
Right, but that was obviously just an example.

Their generators are almost certainly tested frequently. But there could be any number of causes underlying the failure, and unfortunately sometimes failure does happen.

The Canadian data center is also a very low cost way to serve the US. I'm an OVH fan. They have their quirks, but the pricing is great. You just make sure you compensate for their quirks with backups and DR plans.
This affects DNS as well, since domaindiscount24 (a rather large registrar in Germany) happens to host all three of their nameservers with OVH.

What you need is a massive amount of parallel cores. Currently, the cheapest and most efficient way to achieve this is GPUs. It's true that some graphics-specific parts of a GPU are not needed for compute-only kernels (such as those for ML or other AI tools), but it's still a lower overhead than a CPU in yet another box.

Who knows, perhaps Intel will be developing more general purpose massively parallel compute processors, but intends to integrate some of the knowledge and experience accrued from the field of graphics processors.
> Correct, nobody is obliged to help you. What a sense of entitlement!

Actually, they are.

It's an innate instinctual behaviour inherent in all healthy human beings and we are social creatures that have succeeded through co-operation. If you have never felt the urge to help someone, prevent abuses and exploitation you might actually be a sociopath.

In the wild, members of social species that don't conform to this become outcasts and eventually die off as they cannot contribute to the group. It's an evolutionary weakness.

People like you try to wax philosophical about self-reliance and pulling yourself up by the bootstraps, but it's simple greed masquerading as some kind of stoicism and self-reliance.

The simple fact is, neither you nor Apple nor anyone else in this vein has made their living without the benefits and support that a tax-paying society has afforded you. Considering especially that it is people like you that espouse this naive view of the world and your support for companies like this engaging in these socially-damaging practices, it is interesting that it also happens to be these very same 'captains of industry' that receive all manner of corporate welfare, bailouts and handouts.

Privatise the profits, socialise the losses. Capitalism when you are winning, socialism when you are losing.

It's interesting how that works isn't it? Almost like it isn't some kind of profound personal philosophy, but rather just simple greed.

There is only so far you can shrink. Also Intel’s architecture is way more complex, due to legacy support.
Qualcomm for example do not support ARM 32 bit instructions at all, only the new 64-bit ones.
If Intel could do the same, they would be better off. Alas it’s too late. I think if they went this way with Itanium, 64-bit, fixed sized ISA, instead of VLIW it would be wise.
Just thinking about the complexity of the decoder that jas to cope with intructions ranging from 1 byte to 32 byte!
> Birth certificates are pieces of paper that literally anything identifying as a hospital can create 'officially'.

I don't know how it works in European countries, but here in Brazil, birth certificates are made by notaries, not hospitals. You might be able to get forged hospital documents to take to the notary, but getting a "backdated" birth certificate for an adult is harder (getting a second copy of your birth certificate is easy, however; just go to the same notary, who has every birth certificate it emitted registered on its books).

Anyone know anything about the credibility of the Disclosure Project[1]? I think something like 100+ ex-service personnel testified under oath that they'd witnessed UFO activity.

If 100+ people testified to seeing me do something illegal, a court would convict me (barring exceptional counter-evidence).

Having researched things as best I can I am now of the opinion they're already here, based mainly on the number, diversity and credibility of witnesses (e.g. ex-military personnel, former nuclear military personnel, Air Force, etc, not that any I know anything beyond that).

For me the tools worked fine, I prefer the Firefox ESR layout, I prefer FF ESR Network tab, Chrome network tab is too much for my usual tasks, 99% of the time I want to see the response code and the exact response and I do not care about profiling, so Ff way worked fine for me.
The JS debugger layout makes more sense for me how it was in Ff, call stack on left side, variables on right side, Chrome call stack view is weird.
So I use ESR for dev, hopefully the bugs that affect me will be fixed and the UI changes I could get used to.

Model access control into the schema. Create a BaseUser type and an UnauthorizedAccess type, then a union of the two, refer to the union in nearly all scenarios where you want to create a relationship to a User.

GraphQL gives you access to a relatively powerful (but sadly incomplete) type system, you have a much better time if you take full advantage of it.
And the rates used to be - by today's numbers - ridiculously low, but over time it became a nice and succulent teat to milk.
Neither is intrinsically bad for society, merely the monetisation model. "State owned" search/social would obviously be even worse, however, so there isn't a clear path to having a version of either of those things which actually have as their primary aim the things Google/Facebook claim to.

What you're saying is that some things are (presently, at least) impossible to automate reliably. That's true. The issue is that a reasonable person's response is "I guess we can't automate that yet," not "oh well, let's automate it really poorly instead."
I have several Visa and Mastercard credit cards. Amex tries go get into the market here, but have higher interest rates and a yearly fee, while most Visa and Mastercards are without any yearly fee, so Amex is rare here. The credit cards I have are not connected to my account and if I pay all the next month there is no interest, but if I only pay parts there are lots of interest. I do get points/credits on some of the cards, so that are the cards I do use.

So I am not sure what is the difference between these cards and "US-style" cards. Maybe that we only need to get an automated credit check based on past years tax reports to get them, instead of having to work hard to get a good credit score?

The differences between different parts of Europe can be larger than the difference between some parts of Europe and USA
Nim has everything nailed down except the ecosystem/commercial backing; It does have some of those, but not to the extent that I would blindly tell you they are there.

It's as fun as writing Python (with a similar syntax), but it has essentially all the goodies you want from Lisp when you need them, runs as fast as equally optimized C, produces standalone native binaries, _or_ standalone JavaScript if that's your thing.

The users that used Firefox despite the lower performance had good reaspons to use Ff like privacy and the extensions, now this new performance updates are cool but the updates that affect privacy and extensions hit the loyal users, I think this is a huge, mistake and I understand that extensions need to be updated but privacy should be the first reason someone would use Ff over chrome, if Mozilla needs statistics then they can prompt the user and ask permissions.
What's obvious to some is obtuse to others.

Take iterating and filtering as a prominent example. For some, the functional approach highlights the operations themselves and avoids boilerplate. For others, the indentation of traditional loops and conditions alone is worth that.

Usually there's a certain language culture attached to that. A Perl programmer sees "map sort map" and knows what's going on, everyone else is just going "Schwartzian what?". A big problem with JavaScript is that it doesn't have a culture that points in a specific direction, so you're bound to encounter all kinds of approaches, and none is really "native".

Swift probably isn't as bad, but it'll hit the same cultural barriers from time to time, depending on the previous experience and general environmental conditioning of the programmers.

I have bonus points on some cards and cash back on other. All include stuff like travel insurance if I pay > 50% of the trip with the card. I can not go over the limit based on how much money I have in the bank since the cards are not connected to my bank account. But my limit is not a problem since some increase it without me asking and the only time I have needed to increase it on a card I could do that online in two minutes. I select how much of the balance I want to pay back each month, if I pay all there is no interest if I pay parts the interest is high and the CC company makes money
I think the motivation counts. Adopting out of a desire to have a child feels quite different from doing it for money.
