You want verifiable builds, but that different algorithms should produce the same result.

Is this even possible?

And wouldn't it be easier to just verify the binary manually?
Maybe not in those words, but I would bet there are a lot of people who wish that they had more financial security throughout their life. It's much harder to maintain relationships without financial security. One of the leading causes of divorce is extended periods of unemployment. There is also some evidence that men who work longer hours tend to have happier marriages. That would suggest that it might at least sometimes be a rational decision to put in extra hours even if you are optimizing for relationship quality rather than money or status.
Yes of course. Still, the initial sight of Cyrillic alphabet scares off many people.
Okay, I admit it, I'm not enlightened. Will somebody please Explain Like I'm 5?
Oh! Thanks for pointing that out <3
My guess is that sometimes it costs money to provide energy. I would imagine it has to do with supply and demand at that time.

Built For Me Inc. | Seattle, New York, San Francisco, Remote (US-only) | Senior Software Engineer | Full Time | $150k-$250k

Who we are: We are a small company loathe to use the word “startup”. The phrase that most aptly describes us is “boutique consulting firm” as we are currently working on select software consulting projects and have a long term vision to build a stand-alone product in about a year. The future product will focus on enabling business workflows and growing workplace productivity. We are being smart in our approach balancing software consulting with our own product. We balance both to pay ourselves well and support our vision for the future.

Who you are: You are a self-starter who can work with little supervision. You are meticulous about details and sufficiently passionate to get things done, yet know when to pivot to a more experimental move-fast mode. You should be a great teammate who looks to make your colleagues more productive because you know they are doing the same for you. You love the state-of-the-art and yet understand the danger of being there and can articulate the reasons why.

Technologies:

NodeJS / JavaScript

Babel / ES6

RDMS: MySQL / Postgres

Amazon Web Services: EC2, Lambda, CloudFront, S3

GitHub

Apache Aurora / Mesos

Terraform

Docker

We’re open to new technologies too, in the right situation.

The documentation indicates they were tested on p2.16xlarge so yes.
Probably more than structure (which I took to mean connectivity) -- there are a lot of things that affect (biological) neuronal computation in addition to connectivity, such as synaptic weights, distribution & types of receptors for different neurotransmitters, and the (sometimes very different) timescales associated with different neurotransmitters. Not easy things to measure.

I'd say they are actually timeless, it isn't just emotional attachment. They're both beautiful and functional. Some of those old buildings are less functional than they used to, like a lot of churches in Europe, but they are redeemed because they are beautiful.

> Is beauty a requirement for a institution?

It certainly is if those institutions recognize their responsibility when building large projects. Good architecture should be beautiful, robust, and useful. That's a rule of thumb dating back to antiquity. Modernist ideology started to subvert two of those, and really only focused on use. It bastardized beauty into branding, the idea that a building is a sculpture that needs to project the brand of the institution. That's why so called "forward thinking" institutions build buildings that look futuristic. But they only look futuristic in the present-day, that kick wears off really quick. What remains is often objectively horrible and unpleasant. That new Yale building will not suffer that fate, because Yale didn't fall in that trap of using architecture as branding.

> Founder comp tied to release of a product that works

Who decides what is a "product that works"?
ti8m | Frontend, .NET, Java, Devops, everything really | Switzerland, Germany | Salary: 90k-120k CHF | ONSITE | For Switzerland, only EU-passport holders, for Germany, people living in the country highly preferred.

Dear HN crowd, our company has around 200 people and most of us are in Switzerland, some are in Germany. Ti&m stands for "technology, innovation & management". Sounds boring but it's actually pretty cool to work here. We have a mix of product and project-based work. We built products like "Paymit" that is "The Apple-Pay" of Switzerland. Also, we often do client work: We build full-stack things for insurances, banks and other bigger clients. For us it is important that someone wants to stay for several years and not just for a short period. Also, at least willingness to learn German is crucial.

Our hiring process:

1) Resume / code-check

2) Phone call (getting to know each other + quick technical interview, no Google-questions)

3) Onsite (half a day) more technical assessment.

As you can see on our career-website (https://www.ti8m.ch/en/career.html), we have a lot of jobs opened. Please tell us which one of those you see yourself fit, why and send it to:

From the post

The AMIs come prepackaged with Nvidia CUDA 9, cuDNN 7, and Nvidia 385.54 drivers, and contain the Anaconda platform (supports Python versions 2.7 and 3.5).

CUDA support and Nvidia drivers imply access to GPUs.
There are 50 scenarios, though, and the rules include provisions to choose a different scenario if you'd get one you've already played. That happened only twice to us so far, though. Yes, technically the game is less fun after playing it 50 times. But that's a lot of fun hours until then.
MAGIX VEGAS Pro 15.0.0.261 and Crack
GM is already ahead of Tesla in vehicle autonomy. It's even debatable as to whether GM is ahead of Waymo. Waymo is poised to deploy first in Phoenix, but they haven't even begun serious testing in dense urban areas, which are far more challenging and where Cruise is focused and making headway. GM may or may not achieve it's targets on time, but without question they are putting their money where there mouth is.

GM is the most vertically integrated and they're showing very good progress relative to the competition, they're in the best position to deploy at scale. Their acquisition of Cruise was money well spent. GM has a legit opportunity to achieve dominance.

And really, if anybody is spreading hype and BS about autonomous vehicles it's Tesla. Developing an autonomous OS to minimum viable product is a ~5 year job, depending on how well or poorly things go.

Musk was tweeting in the spring that they'd be able to demonstrate L5 capabilities on underpowered hardware by the end of this year. Which is total bullshit. Many car companies are making nebulous claims about when they expect to achieve autonomous capabilities, but Tesla lied outright to get people to reserve their Model 3 orders.

I had years of classroom German in high school and basically cannot hold a conversation. Yes, Benny sounds like shit, and has to work pretty hard to express himself, but he is able to hold conversations with people (there are videos). To me the idea that one could get to even that rudimentary level of conversational use in 3 months is pretty revelatory.

My point is even if he's "bad" at these languages, he's done something I didn't previously think was even possible.
I would love to have systems where I can set a password and there is not online reset available. For my retirement account, for example. If I forget my password, I have to go to an office in person to reset. Maybe a $50 fee, if this service is too much of a burden on the broker. Same with my bank. They have branches everywhere. I know many people forget their passwords all the time, so they need a easy reset for those people, but for others that want a more secure system why not an in-person reset for a fee? Bad PR? News stories about how those greedy banks now want to make money when you forget your password?
You are missing one very important detail: the people behind any and all ICO's (or any venture really) need money to eat, to pay mortgages, alimony, child support, and maybe even bribes, overdue tax payments, salaries and healthcare copays for their employees. Maybe they just want some money to blow in Vegas.

They raised some money - they now want to extract that money. Obviously, they can't for some reason, either being blocked by investors or other members of their company who are disputing it (or want the money for themselves too).

It's super transparent, and in the end, people are people. An ICO or blockchain, or any technology isn't going to change that fact.

Does that mean the AG Unix is on hold (or dead?). Btw, not sure if it's related to Alpine or not, but your servers are unreachable for me at the moment ;-)
That makes perfect sense. Unlike this sexually charged fanboi blog post.
Yes! Home manufacturing tools are definitely headed in the right direction! My interest is in going much farther though - to the point where a community or society can survive off of a totally open source chain. To me that means the machines that make the bagels at the bagel shop are open source and the vehicles that deliver the wheat that make the bagels are open source and so is the farm equipment and the solar panel manufacturing equipment etc.

I’m happy that we’re moving to more sustainable energy but for me the revolution I’m most interested in is the one where the people control the manufacturing technology. And I hope we’re caring for the earth while we do it.

Oh and see my latest 3D printed robot in that vein: http://reboot.love/t/rover-a-robot-you-can-make-at-home/94
Before the haunt, any effect that would lower a stat below the lowest value cannot do so and the stat stays at the lowest value. You cannot die, but yes, you're pretty weak, which can make the time after the haunt fairly deadly.
Obligatory shout out to Hardcore History: http://www.dancarlin.com/hardcore-history-series/

I was never very much into history. But it didn't matter because this series is amazing. I would recommend "Blueprint for Armageddon" about the first world war, but be warned that it's very long. If you want something shorter (it's still almost 6 hours!) try "The Destroyer of Worlds".

But really, pretty much everything is fantastic.

Tesla will sell hundreds of thousands of Model 3s in 2018.

Well, if we're just going to pull stuff out of our arses, why not millions? Millions! of Model 3s sold in 2018!

For our readers at home, if you ever wondered what a real-life example of "FUD" looks like, this is as close as you'll come without a time machine to the 80s to witness IBM's marketing in person. Instead of making a valid comparison based on the reality of today, let's talk about what might happen tomorrow. And since tomorrow isn't here yet, we can make up whatever shit we want. Whether it's the capabilities of the new mainframe IBM's releasing next year, or how many cars Tesla is going to sell next year. Because comparing current products to what your company might produce next year is super easy when I can't buy a Model 3 today.

But more to the point, as a TSLA shareholder I find the idea of bringing up GM's losses laughable. Do you really want to go there, talking about who's making money manufacturing cars and who isn't? 'cuz I got some balance sheets you might want to take a look at.

I proposed a thought to Reddit, but have no proof of its possibility either technically or practically.

The people we talk with are generally the people we are connected with on social media. It's feasible to me that a conversation happens and someone in the group makes a search, which then maybe causes algorithms using location data to push those ads to people in that location.

Further, what's being talked about is probably being talked about and searched by others in the area and/or with the same interests, so even if it isn't localized quite so much the possibility of what's being talked about to generate ads is heightened.

Finally, there's the confirmation bias and recency bias at play. Once something is known or on mind, it's more likely to be noticed. They may have already had those ads coming in and only noticed them after talking about it. Or, the ads might have even caused the person to subconsiouciously think about the thing.

The psychology at play in advertising is advanced.
OK, you're right. The recovery key doesn't do what I thought it was doing. It's not hardening any requirements for 2FA, it's an additional (logical OR), option.

Bummer.

Nice use of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whataboutism
There are two problems with this lifetime and power supply in that order. The first is that the lifetime was only 3000 beats, which at 40 beats a minute translates to about an hour and a half of use. In comparison, the jarvik 7, one of the first artificial hearts was used in a patient for 620 days[0], which at 40 beats per minute translates to about 36 million beats.

In my opinion, I think it will be very difficult to modify this heart to last this long, especially if it experiences significant elastic deformation. To get this significant elastic deformation we need soft materials like elastomers, which don't tend to have very good fatigue properties under significant elastic deformation. The authors even admit that "this issue is a game breaker and
needs to be resolved."[1] Developing elastomers that can withstand the number of cycles is quite challenging.

This heart is pneumatically powered, so the patient needs to have tubes going through the skin connecting to a pneumatic power supply. These can be bulky, they can be portable, but still somewhat bulky[2]. For something that keeping you alive, this may not matter too much if the benefits of using the device are sufficient.

Although I'm not really clear on what the benefits of using this are(I must admit I am not an expert in artificial hearts). One big claimed advantage is that they may reduce the dead spots in the heart. Dead spots are regions of low fluid flow, these are bad, because they can cause clots to form. Some artificial hearts deal with this now by having the patient take anticoagulants, so reducing them is a pretty big deal. But they have not demonstrated this. Although this is pretty difficult to do, they'd have to find a way to make the heart transparent to see the fluid flow inside.
