I think Modular might be better for a beginner if the price were not so prohibitive. A modular is better for understanding how eery piece of your system can or does affect another, because you've manually plugged them together.

I guess it depends on whether you primarily want to "learn synthesis", or "make music with synths". The former, I think modular is worth a look, but for the latter modular is too much money and effort.

I'd compare it to learning C vs Python. I'd recommend computer science students get early exposure to C, but for someone writing simple scripts, jump straight into Python.

I mostly learned synthesis through free youtube tutorials with software synths. A lot of concepts are pretty generic and when learned in one synth can be applied to most others.

Interesting, I didn't feel at all like there was a weird disconnect or agenda being pushed. In fact, it felt to me like a pained attempt to paint a contentious situation fairly and factually. It seems all too plausible to me that both of the following might be factually true:

• Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg are putting a lot of money into the local community and feel like they are going above and beyond their obligations in that regard

• various hardships that the local community has suffered and is suffering over the recent years are directly and visibly linked to Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg, and therefore they feel like Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg have and are continuing to harm them, not help them

The article seemed to be taking pains not to claim that any of the following were true, or that their opposite was true:

• Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg are wrong to feel that they are going above and beyond; they should instead be contributing to the local community more and/or differently

• the local community is wrong to feel that Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg are doing more to help than to hurt them; in fact, they have no right or claim to getting more from, or even what they currently get from, Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg

It sounds like you think it's clear that Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg are contributing plenty enough to the local community. I'd be interested in learning why you think it's so clear that they needn't be doing more or different things, in spite of the local community's reported continued hardships.
I could imagine a million reasons. Maybe the US has a higher natural rate of accidents but deaths have fallen earlier because we implement sophisticated safety tech earlier. But once safety tech reaches diminishing returns, other countries pass us.
6 weeks really isn't a long time. They had to locate a pentesting firm that specializes in forensic investigation, schedule it, conduct it, then decide what to do.

You're talking about a ~90hour work week. I have doubts that this is the case, but if it is, this is an insane work-life balance, and your experiences should not be directly translated to other people's situations. I find it incredible that you're ragging on another persons decisions, when your own decisions could quite easily be put under the microscope and shown to be unviable.

Though I find it interesting that this is the only thing you've posted here. To both boast about your own lifestyle, and to deride someone else's. Not really HN worthy behaivour tbh.
It is a similar concept to export of physical goods into a country/trade block. Either comply with the local regulations on quality or your goods will not be allowed.

Simple, we create a blacklist for spam blacklists, any spam blacklists that misbehave are added to the spam blacklist blacklist and require a $100 fee to be removed from the blacklist blacklist.

I can already guess what your next question will be "But what monitors the spam blacklist blacklist?"

But don't bother asking - it's blacklists all the way down.
My point was, do you ever feel the need to integrate all these pieces of information from the tools you mentioned, into one place? So that you do not have to keep several tens of browser tabs open whenever you inspect a particular set of services?
I feel like you may have a bit of an axe to grind about local real estate prices. Yes, they are money laundering in the sense that they are avoiding regulations from their home country. But they aren't trying to avoid Australian regulations right? These investors generally have legal businesses in China, as much as that is possible in a state like that.

"I'm sure many can agree it's disgraceful" is a particularly choice piece of rhetoric that I am still trying to unpack. Also I like how you over attributed your comment as an appeal to authority.

There is a whole ball of string that you find when you start pulling the thread of your argument. That ball of string can be called globalization. Many people around the world are just coming to terms with the trade offs involved in the the way we have structured the world today. You can see some of this in the nationalism of Trump and Brexit. It is a complicated problem with complicated answers. I just want people to watch out for situations like this and not think that "whoah, this is clearly disgracefully wrong".

The study lasted for 21 months. If, as an example, people in the MCP decided that after 2 years, they would try the same dose as what they left off at, it could be too high for them or laced with something new to their bodies( like Fentanyl ) and could OD/kill them.
I would think it would be to his advantage to disclose it as well. To put another nail in the coffin for Kalanick ever coming back as CEO.
I feel conflicted here. I try to give people the benefit of the doubt by educating them a bit and explaining up front what funds the project as well as what the scope is.

As a maintainer, seeing it every does tend to annoy me a bit. I always try to remind myself people dont usually mean ill though. All bets are off if people continue to disregard the framework for engagement though.

Most people are a bit surprised I do this but are generally receptive after the initial explanation.

the answer to why QR codes are a thing now is basically this.
The single source of truths, all the core Facebook users data (except messages) is stored in MySQL cluster. The issue you describe is that the same data is also cached in Memcached and by other means. But deleting is entirely possible, though it's against their business model, so they make real deleting as hard to find and do as possible, and scare people away with info like "you cannot register again".

Training of neural networks is probably a gray area, and a potential issue for many companies. Example: Think of the recorded audio messages from Siri/GoogleNow/Cortana that gets processes and potentially stored and not deleted thereafter on their (and third parties like Nuance) servers. If one deletes an account, one would assume it also and especially also deletes all private data like messages, voice and video recording.

I completely agree. Taking months to let tens of millions of people know their information was compromised isn't acceptable, no matter whether or not you know all the details about it. (The obvious exception being an as-of-yet insecure point of attack.)
Give us a way to measure it, and lets see how we can do analysis on ita merits and flaws.
I largely agree here. I usually get annoyed when people start demanding things though. There are a surprising amount of people that do this. That is where burn out comes from .
Indeed, there never wasn't. The Civil War was just one phase in a conflict that predates the founding of the country and certainly didn't end with Reconstruction.
China is absolutely doing the right thing in cracking the power of the private banking system. Having a powerful private banking system is the recipe for disaster, since the predatory (rentier) nature of banking suffocates the development of industry and even the long term survival of a consumer base. It is funny that this was very well understood by economists an politicians as far back as the 19th century but it has been largely ignored throughout the 20th and 21st century. Now we see the US and the EU largely controlled by banking interests, with very little if any taxes applied to financial gains and little support for industrial development. It is not a surprise that practically the entire industrial complex has moved to China, with the exception of highly subsidized industries such as weapons production.
My emigration will happen officially next year. For me there would be several ways to make this emigration work:

- I could get married to my girlfriend, this would give me a marriage visa.

- I can pay for a special type of visa with a certain duration (choices are 5, 10, 20 years). A 5-year visa would cost around 10.000 EUR or 8 EUR / day and gives some extra benefits, like yearly health check-ups at a major hospital, free limousine service near airport, preferred treatment at airport (not wait in long queues), legal help, etc...

- From 50+ years one can get a retirement visa (but I am only 36 years old, so this doesn't apply to me).

- I can work for a company inside the country and get a work visa. Easily do-able as a software developer, but obviously will earn a lot less compared to North Western Europe. But earning 2.500 EUR a month as software dev is still a lot, about 5x the average income.

- At least one company allows you to freelance and they handle taxes for you and give you a work permit. But all invoices should be handled through this company and they take a 30% cut.

There are some other ways as well, like an investor visa if you invest a large amount of money in the country.

I will go for the second option for now, pay for the 5-year visa. After 5 years I could extend this with a 10-year visa. And from then on I can use a retirement visa.
Show me a site that gathers data about me directly, transparently, and without any creepy cross-site tracking, and I’ll consider your question. Unfortunately that’s not how anyone works.
This seems a little misleading. He didn't really "win" the right in my opinion. Rather he complained enough such that the company granted him an exception. Based on the headline I was expecting some sort of court decision.
+1, those testimonials were eerily close to home!
He should have come forward with it immediately while still conducting the internal investigation. Not only do customers deserve to know as soon as possible, but it would have established trust in him as CEO and cemented that Kalanick needed to be gone.
If I started selling a product that may have benefited a future employer, should I not work for that employer in the future? Not saying these are at all equivalent situations given the amount of power Pai but curious all the same.

But couldn't the same thing be useful for other data types, like integers? "I think it was about 7 oranges." Or even strings. "I think his name was Bill."

You forget that the remarkable growth enjoyed by Western countries fuelled by science is mostly only possible because they have historically given themselves access to the entire world's natural resources, sometimes with the cooperation of non-West people, sometimes in spite of them. Nobody on this planet stands alone. We all depend on the Sun ultimately. Let's stop this game of "I'm better" and "You're better", and recognise that for better or worse, science and connectivity have made this one planet, one humanity and a whole lot of common problems we need to address. Erecting more walls may delay the inevitable but won't last forever, IMO. Human growth and science have a way of breaking all barriers given time.

The blanket version. Google et al neither sell nor (generally) share your data with advertisers. They make the decision on what to show to you and thus, only they need to get your consent once for that express purpose.

By the way: it's still a topic of heavy debate how much of this can be done through terms and conditions after all.

I opened it looking for my favourite bearing, and it is indeed there.

Page 34, Section 1.7.1 The Bicycle Bearing

"The demand for large numbers of steel balls... provided the ideal commercial conditions"

When I get a puncture, I glue a patch onto the inner tube and pump up the tyre again. When the handlebars wobble, I tighten them with an Allen key. When the brakes fail, I can adjust the cables to tighten them or realign the pads. I can always keep the half-broken bicycle moving.

But when the rear bearing is broken, my bicycle simply won't move. Taking apart the wheel takes a lot of work. The fastest, cheapest way I've found is to replace the whole rear wheel with one from a scrapyard.

I think it's not an exaggeration to say that the rest of the bicycle is just an accessory to the ball bearings.

That's a rather perverse way to say it. In what way is an advertisement that's tracking somebody around the web "better"?

My personal opinion is that there's no such thing as a "good" ad.
Very interesting, thank you
As ∞ is not the same type of object as 1, 5, 6 3, etc; the sequence isn't technically well defined. Actually ∞ itself isn't well defined as it could be one of an infinite number of cardinal numbers.

Something along the lines of "1 1 \aleph _{0} 5 6 3 3 3...", with each element being a well-defined cardinal number [1], might be technically closer to being correct, but it is still confusing.

(Also, sorry for the TeX).

I went through all the steps to "permanently" delete my account in 2010, did not log in for 4 years, then tried to see what would happen, and my account and all its data was fully restored.
It's kinda ironic that all the people here are complaining that facebook might not actually really delete literally every single bit of information that you have, while hacker news doesn't allow you to edit your comments, delete them, or delete your profile. This sort of functionality should exist on every platform that even has accounts.

Does anyone know if GDPR (or similar law in the future) will actually force HN and other sites that don't have this feature, to remove accounts, at least EU ones, upon request?
If you were relying on passwords for security then it's really your own fault. Don't expect much sympathy here.
I've got one of those Macs with a TouchBar and even when my touchbar is showing F-keys, F4 sometimes just doesn't send anything (to any program). There's no way that my case has anything to do with the settings you are talking about.
Who will be responsible for the "blocking"?

Will I as a developer or US business owner need to proactively disallow all users from outside the US (since I am not familiar with their laws) to avoid potential legal troubles, or will other countries block my site/service without me needing to do anything?
I was under the impression that the move of industry to China was due to cheap labor, not due to different banking regulations.

Is it possible to get a loan in the US and use it to build a factory in China? How about vice versa? Because if so, then I don't see how banking regulations would change where a factory would be built.
Wasn't a hack. Whoever in charge of security dreamed up a "hacker" and ransomed Uber for the funds.
You mean he should have told those affected without knowing what actually was leaked, the scope and impact of the leak, and the whereabout of the leaked data, or making sure there is enough safeguard in place so no one can repeat the same attack? Does not sound more responsible?

The GDPR does force anyone who stores user data to delete it upon request.

However, IIRC, there is not much of a requirement of having a dedicated form of it. An email is sufficient notification you want this to happen (and you're of course free to ensure the user's identity).

After that they have to delete all data and take note of the deleted datasets so in case of a backup recovery the data will stay deleted.
> Then there's the practicality of things. If you delete your account here on HN, would you expect all conversations that you participated in to be removed? All references to your comments? Or all comments that you made removed?

There's been few debates here about the definition of to 'delete' which I won't get into. However, as a user, it rubs me wrong when companies equate simple username disassociation with deletion. It's not a user's place to wonder about the practicality of deletion at scale. A user has the right to have removed all content they've produced regardless of whether it's linked with other posts.

Heh funny, I started writing a "labbook" like this ~6 months ago with markdown writer in atom for every day. I have a background as a Lab technician where I was used to keep a daily detailled labbook so I didn't have to develop that habit..

I like to structure my programming lab book in a similar way, for every task/ bug/ project I try to jot down a description, hypothesis, expected outcome and document my progress with code snippets / outputs / plots. I also keep a Todo list at the top to visualize my current workload. It really helps if you have to come back to a problem later on or just to get a good overview of your current task. I feel lik this also works nicely in conjuncture with GTD to increase my productivity.
Perfect! Thank you for the tip. It'd be awesome if HN could do the substitution :D
I think that HTML, CSS and JavaScript (ES6) could be considered to be the foundations upon which the various other technologies are built. I think it is important to understand the boundaries between these areas and how they interact.

In my experience you will probably need to understand the trade-offs between using JS or CSS3 for certain effects. Another key understanding is to really understand the boundary between JS and DOM. JS (as an implementation of ECMAScript) treats DOM as a collection of external objects. And of course, those DOM objects do have variations between browsers and their interactions with CSS.

I think it helps to understand JS as a programming language, e.g. in a NodeJS or Duktape environment.

IMHO PHP is less relevant in a 2018 context. There are many frameworks out there (I'm no expert on them) which provide far more useful abstractions for building WebApps, etc.
I understand your sentiment but I don't think deleting comments would make sites like these (community driven) appealing. Missing comments creates a big hole to a comment train, look at reddit. Missing/Deleted comments make the whole comment tree below it quite meaningless.

HN would invite a lot of trolls with this an would make it really difficult to create a submission archive that makes sense.

Now I don't know how it handles account deletion but reddit handles that well, a deleted account will retain its comments without a name if the user hasn't deleted all their comments. That makes sense and works well.
The proper way is what works.
