I've noted this in a different comment, but Japan is very easy to live in. Japan's greatest strength and it's greatest weakness is that just about everyone in the society is in the same "lane".

This means you get a bunch of good and bad characteristics in the vast majority of the population -- politeness-by-default, general honesty, intense almost blinding nationalism -- it's a mixed bag.

Also, if you're interested from a culture perspective, it's quite possibly the most unique culture I've ever experienced. I'm not even normally interested in culture (just about every group has culture, things that make them different, and it's usually all interesting), but just the amount of seclusion that makes it almost impossible for a foreigner to be accepted in japan makes for some really interesting heightened culture differences/quirks.
I'd like to see (light grey) concentric circles for 10min, 20min, 30min 40min, 50min, that way can more accurately determine the distance.

Just reading the discription of this game and it reminds me of Escape Velocity Nova[1]. I spent a long time playing this game in high school. It felt so epic in its scope at the time. I have no idea how popular it was. Did anyone else play this?

All the hardware you can throw at Stockfish probably will not do much of a difference, as DeepMind will just train AlphaZero for another couple of hours to surpass it.

Draws are common in high-level chess. There's a belief that perfect play by both sides will result in a draw.

They changed input format and amount of noise (which facilitates exploration) to account for different branching factor.
Nope. S/He’s saying women are free to work as models at a party, but employers shouldn’t hire women to be models at company events.
Regular working visas and the points system are completely seperate systems.

It is true that if you have enough points on the highly skilled professional visa you can get permanent residence (PR) in only one year.

On a regular work visa you must have 10 years consecutive residence in Japan and "must hold the longest visa type available to you (for these purposes longest means 3 or 5 years)" (my rough translation).

I have consulted with an immigration lawyer on the topic of applying for PR with a 1 year visa and he confirms this.
There’s a rule of bubbles. When Joe Bloggs on the street starts investing, that’s just about the time the bubble pops.

I think coinbase being #1 on the appstore might just be a signal of that moment!
I've met a lot of people who with seemingly good intentions, are way too quick to give pity.
People used to think murder and theft were OK before religion came along. Society is a tool to change people. People most certainly can be changed... maybe difficult for individuals but across generations a lot can happen.

Many models are equally as excited about your tech company and the tech sector. You might find a few of them more interesting than your coworkers.

What it doesn't give is a plausible explanation for switching over to that.

Reduced complexity does not plausibly explain such a huge overhead increase.
You can't start a side business on a regular work visa.

You know YC's question "How have you ever hacked a non-technical system?" This is my answer to it. You can start a side business on a regular work visa if the character of your business matches your status of residence and you don't intensify the business to the point where it is undeniable that it is a business as opposed to employment, e.g. by hiring full-time employees.

So, for example, if you were an engineer, and you happened to run a software company on the side, you could convince the Ministry of Justice to accept the argument that you were employed as an engineer by the 個人事業 (sole proprietorship) of you, which (since you have an engineering status of residence) doesn't require their pre-approval, and then (while establishing a record of e.g. tax paying and similar) bootstrap that into a renewal of your status of residence with yourself as the sponsor, and from there roll on to either a management/investor status of residence or one of the other more stable options.

For totally-not-a-lawyer gloss on this I'm happy to chat with anyone; you can make reasonable assumptions as to why I am fairly confident that the MoJ can be convinced to allow this.

I'm not an expert on the nitty-gritty details of back office stuff, but typically novation comes into play when you're dealing with swaps. These are centrally cleared futures so you're not facing the person on the other side of the trade.
> Japan's immigration system seems heavily set up to encourage young people to come, work and then leave.

Indeed, even though you have to pay all taxes like a local when you live in Japan, you can never benefit from stuff like pensions if you ever want to retire there.
Demeaning to whom exactly?

Im trying to figure out what your argument rests upon.

lol at lack of disclosure, call the FTC
Hey do you have any links for the points system vs the work visa systems, that are in english for people that might be interested? Even japanese would be helpful as well.

Also, +1 for consulting with immigration lawyers. I employ/consult with one as well, and that's about the best information you can get, it's well worth the money (and usually the consultation is free) -- they're very unlikely to get the paperwork/process wrong.
I don't know how much I would trust a lock installed by an individual that did not know how to replace a strike plate.
To answer your questions:

1. Yes. Suffering isn't necessarily limited to some brief interval of time. For example, disfiguring injuries can impose suffering (employment discrimination, loss of consortium, etc.) throughout a person's post-injury lifespan. Money can mitigate burdens imposed by such effects of injury.

2. I don't know. But I would estimate the conversion factor for third-degree burns over 40% of a kid's body as greater than that of a kid's having lost a hand. YMMV.

3. Yes, I do.

You still need to clear the trades even if you directly trade on the exchange. It's just not worth the expense for the vast majority of customers to maintain clearing memberships for every single product at every single clearing house.

Math calculations become simple now!
In the US for science the most common path is 4 year BS, 4-5 yrs PhD with no masters in between. This felt about right for me personally in terms of being prepared to do research on my own. However, I do not feel that a PhD really qualifies one for teaching at all. Most professors are not trained teachers. They are just experts in their field that primarily want to do research and teaching is a requirement of running research group. This is a really weird setup. Most professors that run a research group are okay teachers because of their passion for science, but they are not formally trained educators. They just have a lot of education.

I will say that I have had some discussions with PhD admissions faculty and they say that it is very hard to select which undergrad students to accept PhD programs. Essentially none of the metrics they have -- GPA, GRE scores, courses taken, etc -- have any predictive power for how "good" of a researcher a given student will be. Perhaps if they had to do a masters first it would help.
I've talked to some folks from Fukuoka and it definitely seemed that way when I talked to them.

FWIW, JETRO is like that too. A lot of the process happens in Japanese (it's basically only foreigner friendly in name)

It's still a good start but it's definitely not what it's spun to be.

I have people I'm complaining to and they are changing though (even if it's taking them a few months)

The willingness to change is definitely new for Japan.
Certainly the Civil War era was a lower low point, but we have actual data that says Congress is getting worse and the Gingrich era represented a nadir that we can't break out of.

Congress will never be as productive as people expect but also expectations change. It really has gotten worse. To say it's always been broken belies the enormous progress American society has made in the past 100 years. It definitely can work and has worked extremely well on the balance. Just not now.

Push to talk is most certainly not obsolete. I (and many gamers I know) use push to talk for the privacy of being able to choose when your microphone is activated.

Its even more useful in competitive gaming and/or streaming where many want to chose what to say to their team/friends and themselves/the stream.
why?

We bring dogs along because they are dumb pets, but we kill wolves and took their habitat for their own.

There’s a resource cost to “finding new experiences”. Which conflicts with the “survive and Procreate” drive necessary for any successful system.

Clearing doesn't mean buying and selling.

There's not really a great analogy, but the idea is that Goldman is on the hook if one of their customers can't maintain the margin/haircut.
Modelling Rust's unsafe code seems pretty hard to me as afaik there are no formal semantics for Rust.
That’s really not the point? It’s a metaphor.
That's a great idea. I'll go do that now.

I just cancelled most of my lower monthly pledges, but I suppose it doesn't hurt to speak in action _and_ words.
I agree, there's too much uncertainty with line numbers, especially in a changing codebase.

A system I used to work on (in C) had the build system generate unique error codes for every unique error point. The codes were 64 bits and consisted of an eye-catcher prefix for easy identification in a hex dump (think it was 0xEEE7), 24 bits identifying the file, and the rest was the error code. Every build generated a map file for you to look up error codes quickly. To generate one of these errors, you called a macro with ugly magic code that generated the unique part of the code, and returned that, logged it in the trace, or whatever.

The unique codes served us quite well in precisely identifying where they came from. It would be nice if Go and other languages somehow baked that in for us so you would have a user-friendly error message accompanied with the unique code for developers (which users can just easily ignore).
Down-voted for stating reality. Never fucking change, HN. It's better for you to remain a wooden puppet than to try and imitate a human being.
This is interesting to me because despite having successfully completed my PhD, I would have had no luck if I had to specialize earlier in my academic career. I feel that my brain took longer on average to develop and that I was not capable of understanding advanced maths or computer science concepts until I was about 18-19 (first year of college). It was only then that I began to excel in course work and really enjoy math. By outside objective measures I should not have gone on to study science. In principal I think that this kind of early specialization, when students are capable of it, seems like a great idea! So much of what we learn in high school in the US is useless.

They used to bundle CC transactions, when they stop doing that micro payments become infeasible.

P.S. Stuff like this is why I really enjoy HN. I feel like it is full of people who have had similar life experiences as mine. Almost none of my current friends are real computer nerds, which I don't mind at all, but it is nice to have a community of like minded people.
This is the correct answer and only one of two correct answers at the moment.

Aside from the difference between the clearinghouse and the clearing broker, the difference between the executing broker and the clearing broker is also interesting.

For example you might have bank A as your executing broker and they give up the trade to bank B which is your clearing broker. You might even have your own exchange membership and bank B clears the trade for you.
This is not a big deal. It will get saved with a special bill that will pass 99-0, Rand Paul will probably abstain.
That may be so, but don't we want a company like newman's own to exist and do good in the world? Maybe they shouldn't exist under the current tax regime, but it's not the company that's in the wrong but rather the system that it operates under.

Everything about Bitcoin is driven by emergent consensus. This includes the mining - there is no underlying fundamental mathematical entity that is being discovered or exhausted when people are “mining”. The only reason there is said to be a limited number of Bitcoin available is, well... because everyone says so! All Bitcoin clients agree that it is correct and proper to award yourself 25BTC when you mine a block. Since we all agree that’s ok, we all happily build on top of blocks that do this. We ignore blocks that try to break the rules by awarding themselves more. Eventually we will all suddenly change our mind and only associate with blocks that award the miner 12.5BTC, and then 6.25, etc until it reaches zero. That is the total extent to which the supply of BTC is limited. It’s completely driven by that wide social consensus.

If you tried to start a fork built off of older blocks with a bunch of your miner buddies, it would essentially be a 51% attack. You’d have to convince a quorum of miners and users to treat ledger entries in your fork like real Bitcoin transactions. If you have the power to do that, you have successfully attacked the network, and you may as well have just sat your new blocks with mining rewards on top of the extant main chain. It’s not like mining older blocks gives you more BTC in some mathematical sense - you’re always just earning whatever you think the network will let you get away with, based on the schedule that has been agreed upon a priori.

Hopefully this makes it clear that the question of whether a fork has a separate supply is confused. Neither the main nor the fork have a true finite supply - just a finite amount people will in practice agree to letting you mine. In the case of the fork, it doesnt’t matter whether you can convince them to let you go back to increased mining reward, because you have a much larger problem - nobody considers any transaction in the fork money in the first place. If at any time they do, you’ve attacked the network. Miners and users both equally dislike a state of the world where there is more than 1 version of history - it calls into question whether any wealth they have in chain A is real now that chain B is more popular. In practice they will quickly coalesce into considering one chain the true one, and changing everybody’s mind, especially long after the transactions have settled, would be a monumental task. Because everybody understands this, nobody would even try it, since it’s a waste of precious mining resources. This is why you didn’t see rogue forks forming when the reward decreased from 50 to 25 BTC.

I know that’s a wall of text, but feel free to keep asking questions if you’re interested.

> "a change in ledger management and accounting procedures"

I'm not sure that this now oft repeated meme isn't entirely misleading in regards to accounting. Accounting system audit trails have always been immutable in concept and design, and Bitcoin and block chain brings no change to double-entry accounting and current accounting principles.

In terms of general accounting systems, all block chain represents is a strong encryption based means of ensuring immutability of the audit trail - a feature simply not required.
Always remember, a disabled person see's themselves as disabled only in the eyes of the people with prejudices.

I really hate these aphorisms. I have a mild disability - I have cerebral palsy that affects mostly my left hand and to minor degree my left foot. While I've done a lot of things that most people haven't done - run half marathons, was a part time fitness instructor for over a decade, etc., I know I'm inconvenienced by my disability every time I have to ask other people to do things for me that requires the use of both hands.

Almost any disability comes with certain inconveniences that remind you everyday of what you either can't do or that takes you longer.
It also smells like another example of how taking VC money is going to ruin a startup that could otherwise have grown organically.

In that case, one could just go with the semantics of the SPARK-like tool with equivalent algorithm, turn that to C or assembly, and use it with Rust's FFI. That's similar to my proposal for Rust + x86 Proved or TALC. This is also an area where formal specifications can have benefit showing intent for unsafe Rust and the proven replacement.

I don't want to minimize the level of prejudice that you face but know that every deviation from a heterosexual cis-gendered neurotypical able-bodied white American male is a trigger for discrimination.

Colored woman? 2 levels of prejudice. Immigrant with an accent? Prejudice. Autistic? prejudice. Transgender? you guessed it - prejudice.
