When the level of discourse surrounding "blockchain technologies" boils down to the following, it makes you wonder how long it is until you wake up to find the bubble has popped:

"Someone who wants to own a % of a real estate asset in this city could just buy a % share of mine.

Smart contracts via crypto make this super doable."
But why would you believe taxation is theft?

Can you provide links? I seriously doubt you can get anything into the 8s with only $10k.
You also never hear about breach of fiduciary duty by the trustees. This happens all the time in the U.S. and it's difficult to catch because it's all private. This is particularly true for the elderly.

I wouldn't want to rely on offshore laws to enforce trustee fraud.
What do you mean "inline text search for sproc"?

I use a combination of SQL Hunting Dog http://sql-hunting-dog.com/ (quick search all object names) and a SQL script from the (free) SSMSBoost plugin that looks at most object definitions but not table columns unfortunately. I've used Red Gate's SQL Search in the past but it's always been slow and buggy over the VPN.

If you're looking for a better execution plan utility, check out SQL Sentry's Plan Explorer. It's free.
Deep dive into how Apache Kafka exactly-once works
Yes exactly. I was just pointing out that Tesla has already managed to make a car that had acceleration times equal to stopping times. With this purpose built performance car I would expect nothing less. The Model S will of course not match up to the new Roadster.

Being traction limited 0-60 is nothing new for high performance sports cars, the difference is that using an electic motors, the power output can be modulated on a millisecond by millisecond basis. So the electric car can live on the ragged edge of traction eeking out every last newton. ICE cars on the other hand use motors that throttle responses that are orders of magnitude greater. Restricting how much the the traction envelope they can use. Which is why their 0-60 and 60-0 times tend to be different.
> That's lateral grip, which isn't the same at all. [...] There's a lot of clever things you can do to increase lateral grip, such as wheel camber, that don't really apply to purely longitudinal grip, so I'm not sure this is valid.

Camber isn't a magical trick to get more grip; it's a way to restore grip that would otherwise have been lost because of uneven tire loading in a corner. In a straight-line drive situation, the load is already ideal; the contact patch is the maximum size and fairly evenly distributed across the width of the tire.

> There is just no way you can make a road car that's faster than an LMP1 hybrid.

Indeed, it's currently impossible to make an all-electric race car that can compete with an ICE or hybrid race car in general race conditions, mostly because of the limitations of the energy storage. If the goal is just for a road car to beat a hybrid LMP1 (or even F1) car in a drag race though, as is the case here, I think that's much more doable. The ICE is really the weak link there.
It's not propaganda if he's actually THAT bad. I'm being deadly serious. He is not a normal candidate and claiming that it's biased because there are lots of true stories about a bad person is a feature of our media, not a bug!

It says more about Trump's fans that they're willing to overlook his egregious failings and attack and undermine quasi-impartial institutions just to point score than it does about bias.

This has been promoted with significant traction many times. But remind yourself who is charged with writing the bills that become laws. Congress, which is funded by wealthy businesses and individuals, makes laws which specifically allow their "clients" to avoid taxes.

> the rise of streaming content services has kinda killed off the need for file sharing for most people.

The history is a bit different. Napster was sued out of existence. As I recall, this was done by the record labels, but the argument was that file sharing was unfair to artists. Which it was. But that was obviously not the real point. Streaming services are notoriously stingy when it comes to paying artists for their work. So access to music is still easy, and the net change is that new middlemen are profiting wildly.

(Streaming vs. file sharing is a different issue. I want to own the music I listen to. I don't want to be dependent on an internet connection, a server, a revokable license, etc. )

> A side effect of the ice training is that I sweat in really cold weather.

This is really interesting, it sounds like exposure to cold has up-regulated your metabolism or something.

My genetics are from warm countries but I grew up in a cold country, and when I go home people are always terrified that I'm going to die of cold because of how little I'm wearing.

It's interesting to see that the body can undergo changes like this even in adulthood: I guess humans are adapted to moving around!

I got banned from T_D for saying that the reason Obama spent more $ on new regulations in his first 100 days than Trump did was because Obama inherited the financial crisis and Trump inherited an 8 year bull market. It was a simple fact that got me perma-banned. Both of the communities are terrible circle jerks.

This tech is available and extremely well-implemented via Final Card. I use it and have numbers stored for probably 50 sites/services/etc. Anything where I put a card in online.

So next time my card gets compromised because I used it in a restaurant (seems to happen regularly) then none of those have to be reset. Just get a new "physical" card and go on my merry way. Many hours saved.

The complexity comparison itself is not correct - new generation "file systems" are actually both volume managers and file systems (which also implies other features that live at the intersection).
Is it really an actual problem though? If the headline is good I generally don't care what gets posted here because it's easy for me to pick out the things I do care about.
There are a lot of assembly language instructions that do slightly different things than standard C++ or C, but if the programmer is aware of them they can "handle" the differences.

For example, the xchg instruction doesn't have any C equivalent. (although it has a C++ equivalent: std::swap) The programmer may see:

A ^= B; B ^= A; A ^= B

These two are swapped. A C compiler may be smart enough to know this is an xchg instruction, or it might turn them into xors. Hard to say, really.

---------------

Most of the low hanging fruit have been taken up for sure. Almost every "memcpy" turns into "rep stos" for example (which is the assembly-language equivalent to memcpy).

A high-level programmer may not know that "memcpy" turns into "rep stos" however, and may emit his own memory copying for-loop.

At very least, a good optimizing C / C++ programmer needs to know about these little things. They'll let the compiler turn "memcpy" into "rep stos" (for -Os) or AVX memory store instructions respectively instead of writing their own less efficient loops on the matter.
A lot of these answers seem to be borne of algorithmic consensus of top-ranked sites. There are probably worse ways to go about it, but in many ways Google has to take sides on ideas or concepts that are still strongly debated. Consensus does not create or prove facts, even if it's a strong signal. There are certainly things that I strongly believe that you do not. Does that make my beliefs (or yours) any less valid (until we're confronted with sufficient evidence to change our views), even if one of us has to be wrong?

* Are there sea monsters? Aliens?

* Is there a God?

* Is there a multiverse?

Historically, there was so many things that were 'consensus' concepts that were just flat (oops) wrong. Google would have gotten all of these wrong..

* What happens when you sail over the edge of the earth?

* What's holding up the earth?

* Is the earth the center of the universe?

How about:

* Is the speed of light a fixed constant?

* How much statistical error is introduced into carbon dating when extrapolating behind more than a few hundred years?

* Is cracking my knuckles bad?

How about this one, if it was listed on thousands of spammy self-help sites: "recent studies have shown that it's beneficial to drink gasoline in small quantities." (please do not drink gasoline. That's insane.)

Should Google be liable for those answers that are now coming from its site, with the authority of the world's dominant answer generator, instead of the third-party site that's spouting nonsense? (yes.)

Really, though, Google's answers are probably as good as any until we learn everything about everything and finally agree on everything. Even if they are self-serving to keep you on Google and not send you to a third-party site to get your answer.

> What if the Nazi party came into power?

What people tend to forget is that all totalitarian systems that came to power, have their origins form reactive movements acting to ineffectiveness or oppressiveness of existing systems. NSDAP was formed in response to worsening national situation. Reds and Whites were formed in response to worsening national situation. Italian fascism was response to political turmoil in post-war Italy. Quite a few European countries romanced with authoritarian rule (or went borderline fascist) in inter-war period.

Let me turn this question around: what if anti-nazi party came into power, and then to assure that no nazi party would ever come into power, it would implement its own authoritarian system? After all a lot of those governments enjoyed popular support during their rise to power, with people willing to give up their freedoms for sake of perceived security.

Back in McCarthyism it was better "dead than red". What if "its good to throw the nazi off the copter" is just a sign of our societies marching to new era of scare?

Not only that, all those topics you mentioned are related to technology. They're deeply intertwined. That happened the moment technology became ever more important in our lives.

The people who only want to discuss, for example, Android from technical merits and completely leave out any privacy aspect are the ones who have an agenda. They're trying to silence our concerns. We should downvote their opinion as its akin to complains about moderation.
Those guys target less sophisticated players.

See, a random communist bum have just managed to illegally sell a part of a state company for n gazillions.

He has not a single chance to make even as much as 1% of that in his whole life.

If you were him, will you settle with that 1% and have 100% certainty that all traces are cut, or keep the whole sum and spent the rest of his life in fear.
What's ironic there? If you're a conservative you don't want to go blabbing to some liberal rag. In the same way if you're a liberal you probably shouldn't speak to conservative tabloids. All media likes to twist and contort narratives, because it's in their economic best interest to do so. So, no it's not ironic, and I wouldn't blame you for doing the same.
As the creator, I shame you :)
From DJI's perspective I think they don't have experience with bug bounties so the legal team drafted something not expecting a fight, especially when they offered 30k. Seeing the back-and-forth on legal terms queued them that maybe the author did have malicious intent to harm the reputation of DJI (whether that's a good argument or not is out of scope.) and because of that the legal team turtled. DJI wanted the author to sign the papers, take the money and shut up. The author wanted to sign the papers, take the money, and advertise the hack.

The word "artist" doesn't even occur in the article itself, it's the HN title that is misleading.
HN has some "evergreens" hot topics that maybe could be separated:

- Health (bad service in the US and nutrition), body hacks
- University/education (decline / loan in the US, do I need a university degree to be a developer, Google/Amazon/Facebook favoring same top universities)
- Government surveillance and other threads to freedom
- What I like/disliked or how I moved from language A to B
- Tesla / electric cars, renewable energies
- Online scams, phishing etc
- drugs, war on drugs
- how broken are programmer interviews
- wealth distribution/inequality

driver of private vehicle cares more about their vehicle, it being private

That's how it starts. But then one bus driver figures that if he gets together a loan, he's able to buy a bunch of buses and hire a bunch of drivers and scale up his income.

Next thing you know, he's trying to evade liability when one of his dodgy buses has an accident, or he's trying to avoid repaying the loan, or he's cheaping out on driver skill. If the whole house of cards falls down, he sets up another shell company via a relative, transfers the assets across via a sale, and continues on his merry way.

The private bus owner with the well-maintained bus goes out of business because the he's outcompeted by the scale efficiencies of the fly by night operator.
I'm curious as to why you think WebOS on your TV sucks? I too have it and am content with it. To be fair, though, I don't have any other smart TV OS experience to compare it to.

I really enjoyed the HP Touchpad with WeBOS but there were some rendering issues with it that I noticed when going to certain websites. My father in law got me one during the flash sale as he worked at OfficeMax Corporate at the time and had access. For ~$60 it wasn't too bad at all.
We've found that CloudWatch is useful for some system and I/O related metrics (i.e., the from the EBS SAN's point of view) but less useful for others (i.e., metrics from the VM's point of view). It's worthwhile to install a monitoring agent on the VM that can collect I/O latency and other statistics there too. We use Datadog, but there are lots of options out there (collectd etc.).
> electric motors are more efficient at higher RPMs.

How big is the difference?

It must be pretty substantial to offset both friction losses and gearing efficiency.
It's naked politics, sure enough, and if you try to say something meta or neutral, they'll down-vote you, because after all, we downvote here to indicate disagreement.

Which has turned HN from stuff-that-hackers-find-interesting to something closer to viewpoints-hackers-most-agree-with

And this is true for many other things aside from politics, politics is just where it's most obvious. (I think the format/process worked early on with a smaller, more startup-oriented crowd. Those days are long gone)

While the KPD made many stupid mistakes, and frankly given their Stalinist policies at the time were not much better than the NSDAP in most respect, it was the power hungry right wing parties that entered into a coalition government with Hitler and voted for the Enabling Act.
>And as long as we avoid the latter, the former isn't necessarily an indication that fascism is on the rise.

Especially since in most accounts, Trump is more alike with Obama than not. Obama send home hundreds of thousands of immigrants, both back a shameless war machine (in fact Trump was more reluctant about that and more isolationist until the republican establishment forced his hand -- and then press found him instantly, if temporarily, more "presidential"), both have advanced the interests of corporatists, etc. If you didn't have the Obamacare repeal (which I'd call bad) they'd be 99% alike in their results.

One had better table manners and is a better (still ho-hum and totally fake) actor (in the kind of low quality populist soft-PR video like "the President interviewed by Zach Galifianakis" and "Another day at the office", etc that presidents feels obliged to put out post Clinton who popularized that BS to show us how funny and/or everyday people they are) compared to the vulgar billionaire, but that's more or less it.

Honestly, it looks like DJI was hoping for a 'soft launch', getting a few tame bugs and negotiating with researchers to hammer out details. (Or framed more cynically, using the researchers as unpaid advisors on how to set up a bounty program.)

Instead, they got a stack of catastrophic, maximum-severity issues right away and panicked.
Reddit is full of non-advertiser-friendly content. Not just the posts, but the comments. Banning all that content will make Reddit boring to many of its users.

As for content that breaks the law, there isn't much of that in the U.S., for obvious reasons. Elsewhere it's another story.

As to politics, I don't think you can expect any of these sites to be politically neutral. YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Reddit -- all show their bias. It's OK, it's part of life in a free market. There is a concern that many voices can be shut out of the market, and so maybe there will, at some point, be a decent rationale for temporary (say, ten years) regulations on digital town squares.

Well said. I think the left in America today are closer to the true Nazi's than they realize. The campuses of today are churning out SJW's who are often racist (against white/europeans), fine with violence against their opponents and have quite simply been radicalized in some ways to hate the first and second amendment.
Today, through browsing r/popular, I saw a post about a swedish woman having been raped by a refugee. The comments were neither factual or objective. Most actually claimed she deserved it, because she "probably voted for the left".

Be careful about who you try to defend here, just read any top comment. And dont confuse facts with what's really relevant. For instance, a few days ago I saw a discussion about this:

> a police officer is eighteen and a half times more likely to be killed by a black male than an unarmed black male is to be by a police officer

This is true, and tries to paint a picture of black males being violent (should've seen the comments). But it's two incomparable metrics! Actually, a police officer is ~165 times likelier to be killed by a white male given the same rules.

So yeah, "facts", but always distorted in these subreddits.
I don't see the connection between the shooting and advertisers. If you are American I understand that the Las Vegas shooting probably affected you very much. There is a lot of violence going on around the world, so what do you suggest?
