Yeah.

You can assist them to suicide in certain jurisdictions, if they want to end it.

It's pretty hard to resuscitate back to life after they've been dead, and put in the freezer for half a day.

The ugly fact is this comes down to a pure legal choice: Was the appropriate legal work done for the DNR? If not, ignore and save them. A live person dealing with legal is better than a dead person's family dealing with legal.
- Many websites support embedding images in user content but not videos (Gmail, Hangouts, and Stack Overflow, to name a few).

- A "minimum viable animated thing" tag is more complicated for videos:

<video autoplay loop muted src=video.mp4>

- Supporting videos in img tags and sending the right Accept header means that image hosting sites and CDNs can immediately start serving video files to browsers that support them, without the page needing to change. This applies to every hotlinked gif out there.
RadioLab did an interesting podcast on DNR orders:

http://www.radiolab.org/story/262588-bitter-end/

I think people don't go the DNR route because their understanding of outcomes (from something like CPR) comes from television. Reality is much worse.
Problem: when a certain alarm condition occurs, an LED on the control panel needs to blink.

Dimwit #1: Ah, use a 555 timer.

Dimwit #2: Use an Arduino with the Blink sketch.

Senior Software Developer: I'll use a Linux board with a blink program running on Node.js. The blink program will watch for the alarm condition and blink the LED in response. The program will also provide a web based configuration interface. What if marketing changes the requirements from a simple blink pattern to:

blink blink (pause) blink blink (pause) etc...

The simple 555 timer approach would be too inflexible.

The arduino approach would require altering, recompiling and re-flashing the firmware.

The senior software developer approach would be sufficiently flexible that you could connect a web browser and reconfigure the blink pattern.

Each blink pattern can be given a name and saved. Such as the slow-blink, fast-blink, double-blink, etc. Each pattern consists of a list of on/off states associated with a duration in milliseconds. Anyone can point their browser to this and reconfigure new blink patterns that become popular.

What could possibly go wrong?

As a desktop software vendor, I gathered a lot of perspective on this topic. AI anti-virus engines tend to mark everything as malware. Literally everything, even the simplest well-behaving "Hello World" apps. It looks like a pure manifestation of greed and laziness to me: smash a black box, pretend it does all the heavy lifting and relax taking all the orders you can take in this life.

More than that. Currently there are a lot of shady security suppliers who do nothing except imitating a good protection. They put fancy design into UI coupled with a mediocre 3rd party anti-virus engine, and presto, you have yet another source of false positives. They do not react to reports nor provide any meaningful support. Instead, they are pretty busy with marketing, buzz and sales. Yes, what could go wrong.
>Gold is valuable because physical commodities and physical things, like jewelry, etc. tend to track inflation over time.

I don't know how to read this other than as stating the same thing with different words, i.e. "tracking inflation" is just another way of saying that its valuable.
[let's ignore the specific case from this article for a minute]

Let's say that you are unconscious and stopped breathing.

Your brain is deprived of oxygen. Within 3 minutes, the brain cells will start dying and you will suffer irremediable permanent damage, within 10 minutes, you will be effectively dead all things considered.

What do you do? Do you look for a wallet and the cards inside it?
Another solution for certain type of books is to have the audio version read at 1.5x speed during your commutes. 100 books in a year is totally feasible (assuming it’s not textbooks or anything that would require you to look at illustrations)

I got an Audible subscription 3 years ago and it has been one of the best investments I have ever made.
I've learned no greater lesson about program structure than the time I finally got around to writing test cases for my first modest (~10k lines of C) personal project.
One way to help with this is to take reading breaks when stuck on a problem. If I am working on something and I can't seem to figure out the issue I stop and pull out my book or Kindle and read for 5-10 minutes to let my brain ponder. Usually, by the time I get back I have figured out the problem. Works better than just staring at the problem for hours. Gotten through about 30 books this year using that method, while also bootstrapping my business.

Site is down for me so I have no idea if they addressed this in the article or not, but what's wrong with the `<video>` tag?

""Agile" isn't always as agile as I'd like, but becomes rigid in peoples interpretation of the rules."

I think a lot of this is because, if you don't enforce the rules rigidly, they tend to get cast by the wayside, especially by management.
Ah yes, how dare we poke and prod at the validity of current governmental systems and regulations. That feudal era was such great times, if we had only not gone against the merits of the government of the day./s

There is little doubt that many ICO's are 'scams', and some people will get hurt financially because of it.

The challenge with regulations is, it's easy to quantify the harm they try to stop, but it's harder understand the impact they have on limiting future creation / innovation etc.

Tokens / ICO's have created a whole new, far more accessible way to fund and invest in new technology. Making it far more equal, fast, open and liquid than the traditional process.

Regulation is coming, as it should. I just hope it's done with an eye for encouraging the right type action, rather than just trying to stop the wrong.
To be fair, VP9 and WebM both may as well be considered de-facto proprietary formats. Chrome is almost certainly the majority browser and youtube is likely to be the most used video platform. Sending video from youtube to Chrome is probably the main use-case for that protocol. I'm not even aware of any commercial video platforms that offer VP9 as anything more than a novelty option (although maybe Anvato will now that they are slowly being integrated further into the Google universe). Even DASH is years away from real wide-spread adoption.

IMO, video formats will live and die based on hardware support. If your mobile device doesn't come with a AV1 hardware decoder that works with the majority of players out-of-the-box than chances are streaming services won't support it. Apple's advantage with HEVC adoption will be their hardware.

It's not hard, but you have to learn the foundation to
use it. Do that before criticizing how we use it.

Here's the crux of the problem: we disagree on your first phrase here! I think statistics is hard to learn. I (clearly) don't have the foundation to use it. I'm not criticizing how you use it, I'm criticizing my inability to do so.

Sounds like a personal problem, dunnit?

What's frustrating is that I do "consider myself analytically-minded". I have a Bachelor's in CS; I took two (?) stat classes in college. And it's still like pounding my head against a wall. I find opportunities to use statistics to solve business problems, but finding resources to help me solve those problems with statistics is challenging without, in effect, going "back to school". (Incidentally, this is how I learn: concepts through examples.)

I find that answers to what I think should—should—be simple questions to involve academic digressions into, in effect, the "different kind of thinking" you mention. I find them academic because they don't help me solve my immediate problem. That's not anti-intellectual: but by virtue of statistics being intellectual, it's exclusionary.

I don't think I'm alone in that. From observation, I'm ahead of the curve in even trying. Maybe what I'm asking for is impossible. I hope not, because it the alternative is continued non-use of statistics. I'm bullish because I see opportunity for software to bridge the gap. Software may not be mature enough to do all the heavy lifting required of the user today, but it'll get there.
I really like goodreads. If you do the yearly challenge it tells you your progress for the year. Also, love the Kindle integration where your notes sync to it.
Digikey has the AM3358 for $13.51@Q500. I'm sure Octavo gets a much better price with their volumes, but this was never going to be a $10 part, especially considering all the other stuff that goes on the package.
Of course you will find them, and its clear by now that social networks give voice to the radical minorities that scream the most.

But your comment make it look like, you cant even walk in Brazil, without finding a leftist in every corner, supporting Maduro policies.

That was i were addressing about. I generally dont bother to comment this type of comments here on HN, but i thought that in your parent comment, you were overreacting. And mind you that this for many, its their first experience to this sort of information. And giving information here tend to be more scientifically focused, more based on samples, and carefully elaborated, what you say in this forum weights much more than in other places that are already used to hiperboles.

Particularly i find good when different points of view can coexist in a democratic society.. communists, anarchists, conservatives, etc..

For me the problem is actually when there are too many of them (whatever the ideology is), believing in the same thing, because there is only one point of view.. no more dialog, or a dialetical relationship with the social status quo.

The social network mirror that says we are becoming radicals and more polarized is wrong, i dont buy it, because its not really reproduced in other environments.

A couple of minor notes.

OpenBSD does not have the Bourne shell. One gets the C shell, the Korn shell, and the Korn shell in POSIX mode: no Bourne shell; nor Bourne Again shell.

It is interesting to note that in FreeBSD Perl was removed from the base operating system about a decade and a half ago. So there's apparently an argument to be had that knowledge of Perl need not be required. (-:

From the article:

"Startups also were able to meet with Atrium’s lawyers for counseling and legal preparation specifically for the financing process. All attendees also receive discounted legal services if they choose to use Atrium as their law firm. Of course some may say that this is all just a lead generation tactic to get more companies using Atrium as their lawyer when they decide to raise a Series A."

> Smart glasses, maybe, if there's an iPhone-level breakthrough in optical tech.

Highly unlikely, unless we somehow get to treating each photon quantumly.

Engineering wise, the hard part about 'smart contacts' is the power/data transmission problem. You'd need a wire hooked up to each one, maybe routed from the back of the eyeball. Might as well just use opto-genetics and modify the optic nerve outright.

Physics-wise, the focal length of the lenses matters a lot. Just putting a flex-screen on contacts would lead to VERY blurry images, especially as the cornea changes shape to adjust focal lengths. You'd have no ability to discern display changes as your data is essentially ON the front aperture. Maybe you could do DIC (Differential Interference Contrast) or SIM (Structured Illumination Microscopy) kinda stuff and get really good resolution for things up close to your eye, but that would be a lot of effort to just maybe be able to count the hairs on an ant. Also, you have to be at least a focal length away to just do that, like the diameter of your eye.

Glasses are much better suited for this, as they have sufficient distance away from the eye. But still, you'd have to focus on the glasses in order to read anything. Sure, you could track each eye in real time and adjust the 'blurriness' of the glasses input to match the focal length changes of the cornea, but the processing there would be really crazy, any lag would likely cause nausea as the vestibular organs go haywire. Imagine being on a boat in very rough/random seas.

Likely, just using opto-genetics to hack the optic nerve would be easier. Getting those proteins to behave well is an entirely different task and there really is no path forward at this time for individual optical nerve stimulation in a nerve bundle of transfected tissue.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Go lets you share pointers with other languages/runtimes. I think Go doesn't allow you to pass ownership of the pointer to another language, and you need to make sure the pointer is no longer used by the other language by the time Go cleans it up, but I think you can (for example) pass a Go pointer into C. And assuming I'm right about that point, I think this approach is also roughly what was outlined in the Oxidation Plan (Python won't own resources allocated from Rust and vice versa).
>Rust is certainly harder than Go. There's no need to dance around the issue, that doesn't help anyone.

It's also faster, much more expressive, and much for flexible (e.g. for loading as a C-compatible lib) so there's that.
I agree with your statement of appreciating law and order, but I think there is also a general malaise surrounding who gets to benefit from all of the currently "legal" financial arrangements. There's a feeling that the little guy is left out--or at most, given the dregs after private equity deals, large mergers, and IPOs go down. ICOs--while risky and uncertain--also offer a way of taking action without waiting for governments to "approve."
I haven't yet.

We submitted a game about 3 weeks ago using front-facing ARKit as its core game mechanic and it hasn't been approved by Apple yet.

I'm waiting to see if they're going to allow us to use the new technology in novel ways or not before I invest a lot more time in it.
"Bitcoin" isn't the software, or the network, or the database. It is the consensus of every player in the ecosystem: users, miners, developers, exchanges, etc. A fork doesn't fork the consensus, its by definition a deviation from consensus. Forks don't duplicate what is valuable about bitcoin.
That may have been true a long time ago, but I highly doubt we'll be buying each other gold rings if they cost 50 cents in material like a plastic ring, or some shiny colored cheap metal ring, or any other easily malleable cheap and abundant material available today.

OpenBSD can be security theater and still do great things. But at some point sticking to an 90s Unix/C aesthetic looks deeply anachronistic.

Yes, bugs are found at boundaries and interfaces, large or small. Something has to be different for the output to be different.

If someone writes a bug proof TLS implementation while at the bottom of the pool wearing SCUBA gear, it is still security theater.
It's a "pretty" UI around what is basically Linux. E.g. you won't get far without understanding Linux's iptables, but both MT's command line and GUI are a heck of a lot more discoverable and user-friendly than the iptables command line.

If you want to do anything more than very basic single AP home scenario, you have to be willing to get your hands dirty. BUT they are very configurable, make for great learning experiences, and (from my experience) are very reliable, both hardware and data-plane software.

That said, the configuration software DOES have bugs from time to time, but MT is decently responsive.

I think your case is rare and such person would hold an extreme political view which exists in any culture.

Narrative I/O | New York, NY | Full-time | ONSITE, REMOTE | http://narrative.io/

Narrative is building the first global data marketplace. It has often been said that data is the new currency. Unfortunately, maximizing the value of data is often easier said than done. On one side, transacting via individual point to point integrations carries a lot of overhead in both business development and technical integration efforts. On the other, going through big aggregators introduces opacity in the pricing and provenance of the data. At Narrative, we help our customers get value from their data by building a central auction platform to reduce the friction and tooling to increase the transparency in this process.

We are a small, early stage team looking for great developers who want to jump in and take major systems and user-facing features from design to launch. Here's where we are now:

- We are operating in Amazon Web Services. Our services are mainly deployed on EC2 provisioned with Terraform.

- We also heavily use other technology on AWS such as DynamoDB, S3, and RDS.

- Our backend includes a data ingestion web service with supporting Kinesis consumers, along with a growing array of Spark projects. It’s written mostly in Scala, with a smattering of Python for lambda functions.

- We sit somewhere in the middle of the “Scala as a worse Haskell” and “Scala as a better Java” spectrum. We love functional programming and we do make use of libraries like cats, but at the same time we heavily favor core language features and have no intention of rewriting everything using Free Monads.

- Our frontend is written in Typescript with Angular2 and a supporting API running on Node, and is deployed and monitored using much the same supporting tech as the backend.

- Other services we use include: GitHub, CircleCI, DataDog.

Here are some examples of projects that we would like some help with:

- Interactive tools to help buyers discover the data they need to accomplish their business objectives.

- Interactive tools to help sellers maximize the yield from the data that they are selling.

- Data analytics pipelines to drive the interactive report UIs. For example: reports for yield forecasting and deal pre-qualification.

- Implementing additional infrastructure to support transactions for more types of data.

- Improving the latency and resource usage of our transaction processes.

Apply at hiring@narrative.io. We are hiring for Backend and Frontend Software Engineering roles and are building the team with a remote-first mindset.
