It's also worth noting that hard real-time systems tend to be custom designed, and often for high-budget products like medical devices or test equipment. So it is probably possible to add a bunch of SRAM to the board, and guaranteed latency to that memory is very easy.

I use both homebrew and macports. The main benefit with macports for me is the ability to work with different versions at the same time. You can have applications requiring gcc4.5, gcc4.9, and gcc6 installed. The package manager handles most weird special cases and combinations.
No disrespect intended but why would you add a friend you've never spoken to??
I suspect politically it's DOA. Healthcare is on people's minds more than going to the moon, which has had no strategic use since the 60's, and that was more or less a propaganda war with the soviet union.
I selected PostgreSQL for a geo project recently. Still haven't got my head around tuning, but apart from that I've found it great to use. I use psycopg2 to connect from Python. No nasty surprises in use, and found that all my pidgin SQL translated easily. Also worth knowing that ogr2ogr supports PostgreSQL and is an awesome tool.
I feel like this is getting voted down because the idea is unpopular, but I didn't say I was in favor of it. It is just a statement of fact, not an advocacy of a policy.

Yet, people still find Bitcoin valuable.

It turns out you might not need a large percentage of businesses to accept digital currency, in order for the currency to hold value.
ah, the old, "it's not a framework, it's a library" switcheroo. a classic.

WebAssembly might be a Javascript killer for high-performance uses. Javascript for uses such as game development is dragged down by the garbage collector, forcing you to orient entire code around minimizing allocations. Without garbage collection, you have to manage memory yourself, but allocations aren't as scary as they are with GC languages and they are more explicit.
It compares quite well to video games. Social Media is very much like a MMORPG.

Their are 435 positions open in the house. Picking one side and hand them each 10,000$ adds up to 4.3 million per election. If say 5 companies did this it's 21 million every 2 years and 100+ million over a decade. Though you can save money by skipping a few races.

If you want more focus per race you can also donate to PAC's who can then spend unlimited money.

Yeah, but they don't remember it the day after.
> Large engineering effort, community footprint, and sales are all good indicators, but from a technical perspective, why do you think we should be looking at CF?

Broadly it's that a good platform gets everyone out of everyone's way.

Cloud Foundry (these days, it's called the Application Runtime or CFAR) has made it possible for small teams of operators to support thousands of developers and applications. Similarly, it means developers can deploy rapidly, get databases and integrations on a self-serve basis, enjoy uniform platform features and so on.

There's now a lot more interest in the container as the unit of deployment, which is where kubernetes has become the winning orchestrator. So there's also a Cloud Foundry Container Runtime (CFCR), which is based on kubernetes, designed to use the same low-level operator tooling, BOSH, and to integrate smoothly with the Application Runtime.

Both the Application Runtime and Container Runtime are intended to run on any major IaaS; BOSH provides a uniform layer that abstracts away the raw interfaces. So you can deploy to AWS, GCP, Azure, OpenStack, vSphere, RackHD and there are others I forget.

Last week we had our flagship conference, Spring One Platform, which had a parade of customers talking about how much faster they move. Months per deployment turning into deployments per day. Thousands of developers running tens of thousands of apps. I am aware of customers handling billions of requests per day and handling hundreds of millions of business events using CF. Going through black friday effortlessly without having to massively overprovision.

tl;dr we build installable superpowers.

Yes, of course, but why would you want to?

Either you'll end up with a mass of spaghetti, or you'll end up inventing your own, probably buggy, front-end framework.
good points, the market is pricing the counter-party risk at about 7%

> Right now 1 BTC on Gemini (the reference exchange for CBOE Bitcoin futures) is $16,600 and the futures price is $17,800 for a 1 or 2 month contract.

> Since the risk free rate is about 0.125% monthly and this spread is 7.2%,

> it looks like the market is pricing the counter-party risk at about 7% for one or two month durations.
Admiring one's own culture, or the culture of another, and recognizing the value of them, isn't a 'thin margin' away from xenophobia, I think.

FYI I live in an area where I'm a tiny ethnic minority English speaker among a sea of people who are of a different culture, including my GF and most of my friends. I've also lived around the world as an ex-pat/immigrant/minority.

I think global mass immigration will lead to a single (or maybe a small group of), globalized, commercial civilization(s) without culture, and we will lose most of what makes us great.

It's happening right now - and quickly.

We will eventually defeat climate change - but once we lose culture, it will never come back.

So that's a real thing.

There's no reason that a nation must continue to have 'more people' so I don't see why people must continue with the arbitrary demands of 'more people'.

The motivation for 'mass immigration' is mostly commercial and partly social - there are globalist forces who wish to move masses of poor people to rich countries.

This is not a crazy Breitbart conspiracy, here it is on the UN's web site:

http://www.un.org/esa/population/publications/migration/migr...

The title alone is Orwellian.

And just as there are xenophobes/bigots out there, there many who relish the thought of wiping out successful cultures for various reasons.

When we think about 'retirement' or even 'retiring early' often that's a little bit aspirational ... where would we want to live, if we had the choice? Well - people don't chose to live in the 'suburbs' near an 'IKEA' and a 'McDonald's' and a 'highway'. Generally, I think most people, from most backgrounds, chose to live in a place that has some kind of cultural context - either their own, or another, but certainly not the globalized Starbucks Suburbs.

Our 'global policies' right now are focused very much on the material, not the things that ultimately matter to us because they're a little more intangible.
These are certainly timeless.

Good design is honest particularly catches my attention, because the design of many digital products is fundamentally about misleading the user - see for example Facebook, where users are kept in the complete dark as to why certain posts are shown to them and not others, what data about them is being collected/resold, etc.

This may help you get a job at BigCo Inc., but to succeed at BigCo Inc. requires strong non-technical skills. Software engineering in big companies is as social as it is technical, and that's a glaring gap in this otherwise impressive list of skills.

I had an earlier reply to this, but upon re-reading it, I thought it came off as a little inflammatory, which I did not intend, so I deleted it.

But I think it is a little disingenuous to call those artists "noise artists" insofar as their mainstream success is concerned.
If a decentralized social network like Mastodon can start supporting event planning, it might have a chance to gain ground against Facebook. That's really Facebook's only killer feature and unique value right now, IMHO.

https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/issues/4179
Usually they do, it's just that that option is quite expensive and you might not care about some (or most) of the features you get in that option. It's particularly bad if you anti-care about some of the options. For instance, if you are opposed to having leather seats, you can't get the highest trim, coz leather seats are a feature there.

For eg. Honda Accord 2018 with all bells and whistles starts at $33.8K while the lowest one starts at $23.5K. There's a good chance that a 40% increase over the base price will put that car out of the budget of a lot of people.

I wonder how many people have time for this.
I was really surprised to see this quote: """“The more I study this object, the more unusual it appears, making me wonder whether it might be an artificially made probe which was sent by an alien civilization,” Avi Loeb, the chair of Harvard’s astronomy department and one of Milner’s advisers on Breakthrough Listen, wrote in the email to Milner."""

There doesn't seem to be any evidence supporting this line of reasoning compared to the more mundane possibilities.
Using this logic, dollars are creating value by wasting paper and metal. What you're ignoring is the value of having a publicly auditable ledger of transactions and a decentralized currency. That _isn't_ a waste of electricity.

There are plenty of reasons to be skeptical of cryptocurrency; this just isn't a good one.

I run a business on wordpress, but can't code. I want to learn some php and javascript to be able to better work with my programmer, and make some small modifications myself.

How suitable would this be?

Note: I have learned in the past, for about six months, went through K and R's C book, Udacity's intro course, and made some python scripts which are still in use on my site.
But, that was five years ago, so I've forgotten everything.

So, I'm not exactly a total beginner, but I currently am unable to do anything through neglect.
I always feel like you should just pursue the most passionate 10% of users who are excited about your product, as that enthusiasm is contagious and will eventually persuade everyone else.
Perhaps because the title is classic clickbait, and people on HN don't expect too be hoodwinked like that - and are responding in good faith to a self-contained question as in the title.
Car companies don't usually design these things; heck, most don't design many of the parts of vehicles.

Everything is offloaded to third-party car part manufacturers who make things to an OEM spec (and later supply replacement components to the repair and maintenance market) - but in many cases they also supply their own parts, which can be picked and chosen by the manufacturer.

In the case of infotainment, the standard unit is DIN size; usually double-DIN for most systems today (hidden behind the plastic dash panels); the parts manufacturer designs and builds a number of components and units for that (along with software and such), and the car manufacturer picks it out of a catalog (if there's something that will work). Otherwise a more customized option is done (and then back to your comment of course).

This applies to engines, drivetrains, and virtually every other component of the car, with the exception of the frame and bodywork (interior and exterior) - though even there the part manufacturers lend their hands and expertise to the task, because they have to supply replacement components for those items as well usually.

Many of these parts suppliers used to be wholly owned by the auto manufacturers (some still are), but more than a few are independent as well, and supply parts to various manufacturers. Others are more independent, but only supply to a single manufacturer or brand. All this is to say that an automobile manufacturer today doesn't necessarily do everything completely in-house like they used to. It is much more complicated and fragmented today.

At least, that is how I understand it.
All four major record labels are investors in Spotify, so the lack of profitability isn't a huge issue if you look at it from their perspective.

Since Spotify wields an enormous influence over what music becomes popular, labels can treat it as a loss leader and keep pumping money into it that they make back from album sales/tours/merch/etc on their top artists. The issue with this is that it vastly favors labels who can leverage this economy of scale, and independent labels for whom album sales are a larger slice of their income can't weather the decrease in payment as well.

This is further exacerbated by the fact that Spotify divides payment per stream up by the total number of streams. Simplified example: if I stream two songs in one month, an indie artist once and a major artist once, they'll each get $5 of my $10. If I stream the indie artist once but the major artist twice, however, they get $6.66 and the indie artist only gets $3.33, even though I the amount I listened to them didn't change. (edit, the pool is actually comprised of all users, I just used one in this example for simplicity)

All this adds up to a system that is heavily stacked in favor of major labels and their respective artists at the expense of independent ones.

The name can come from the 19th century, but the practices are obviously very old and not widely "officially" condemned until the Christianity became the official religion, that much is clear.

As it is clear that the awareness of Sappho and the topics of her poems was always there, in spite of her poems not surviving. And you still ignore the whole context of Constantinople from where we have the very report mentioned in the article. The article also never mentions why it should be doubted, given the whole context, nor you do.

Also note that the artistic depictions of something what the Christians considered "ungodly" at some given time were traditionally under much higher pressure than some other topics, let's see even more context:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byzantine_Iconoclasm

The art, compared to some other mediums, was always more probable to induce wishes of its destruction, as it communicates on the emotional level, independently of other cognitive capabilities of the consumers.

One man was first often heard saying that John Lennon shouldn't have said that the Beatles are more popular than Jesus because "there should be nobody more popular than the Lord Jesus Christ." Later the same man did kill John Lennon, and recalled "I would listen to this music and I would get angry at him, for saying that he didn't believe in God... and that he didn't believe in the Beatles."

Note, the fanaticism doesn't have to be (and often isn't) rational.

Note that your responses also actually don't contain any historically usable arguments. But I surely can imagine you having the "feeling" that I'm wrong. That's how it starts.
Very interesting essay, thanks for sharing. I really should read Scott Alexander more often.
We are very much in alignment. I wish there were more folks that think the way you do -- then we might actually find good solutions to these issues.

I am one of those suburban kids, but thankfully as an adult I've learned how important community is, and I've been in search of it ever since. You've hit the nail on the head with the baggage that comes with cultural traditions. That's one of the things that makes finding community very difficult.

I honestly think kids these days view online communities as the most important, since they have much more freedom to "go there" and meet others without the restrictions of having mom drop them off, or even more broadly, without the geographical restrictions they might have. Unfortunately, online communities can't make up for face-to-face bonding, affection, or support.
It would be nice to have the song identification feature on iOS while on standby like the Pixel 2 does.
At the risk of denying the particulars, I don't think there is any country where you can't find lurid stories of high school social media bullying leading to suicide.
Unfortunately that involves a time investment of several hours per gig ( stopping work early, getting changed, transport, attending ) versus a click.

It is also not generally conducive to multitasking. Yes I listen to stuff whilst washing dishes; it gives me 30 minutes of me-time. Then on with the chores, toddler, dog, bills...
Hmm, my backend is some SQL, a bunch of PHP scripts handle requests and return JSON to my SPA. Only thing I use is jQuery since I didn't want to handle the FX stuff; everything else goes through some wrappers I wrote in half a day and which take care of browser glitches.

JSON to html5 content is now at a few thousand SLOC, but still easy to maintain - by me, but honestly not by others. Would it be better with a framework? No, because my employee is a C.S. company with an entirely different focus (applying some corner theory stuff to industrial products): no one here is an expert in PHP Frameworks, instead we have some pretty good C++ and ocaml masters.
I agree; google can help you answer a question but you will rarely know what is best practice, modern, or even most correct.

Tom Wheeler didn't promote the removal of net neutrality protections, an act which would benefit Verizon. This "it's just a joke" is about as funny as if Tom Wheeler had said the same thing Pai did while taking the same stance.

That's because it's indefensible, which is why you're pointing fingers to Wheeler instead of defending it.
Don't forget PHP!

Despite it's reputation, it's gotten quite a large speed boost, a lot of new features (like typing!), And a lot more!

Are they imported from Europe ? If so I would understand why you can choose only what they offer.

In Europe (for European brands I mean) you don't have such an issue, as long as you are willing to wait a long time to have it delivered, ( I know people that have waited 9-10 months for their VW only because they wanted a specific color) ).

BTC doesn't "hold value" it fluctuates wildly.

For a UBI to work people have to be able to actually spend the currency they receive. In places that people (especially the poor) actually spend their money. Let me know when the neighborhood bodega, grocery store, barber or daycare start accepting cryptocurrencies.
Yup. Well said, that's definitely another good reason to use a framework.
Not that this will make a difference in the outcome of Thursday's vote. I urge everyone to look at the actual proposed rules, and in particular the technical background and explanations. Basically, if ISPs claimed something in their comments, the FCC assumes it is true and dismisses any contradictory claims submitted by others.

The entire comment period was for show. Pai and his republican co-commissioners are going to jam this through regardless of what anyone says or does. He was brazen enough to admit, early on, that he does not care whether or not his plan is unpopular and that what the public thinks makes no difference whatsoever.

The only way to change this is to convince Congress that this is an election issue. Unfortunately there are too many other things happening right now, so net neutrality is being drowned in the noise and will likely continue to be drowned in the noise.
You are severely underestimating how much it costs to put multiple kids through expensive colleges. Also, they don't live in "some small town", it's just not the city; it's still seriously expensive compared to the national home value.

But I'm not here to debate this other person's life choices, nor could I. The point is that even $500K/year is not enough for a decent number of people, whereas, say, $1M would be.
As a matter of amoral public policy (optimizing for "long-term survival and happiness of the people"), it's entirely possible a scheme that gets everyone surgeries with 4-6 month delays is better than one that gets rich people surgeries with 1 month delays and poor people no surgeries at all.

(Your moral system might also find that better, but morality is hard to argue.)

Memorizing a bunch of algorithms doesn't make you a software engineer. A software engineer should be able to read an algorithm's description, without having ever seen it before, and implement it correctly in code. Too many people equate memorization with aptitude or skill.

It's too bad that most interview processes don't differentiate between these, and this guide perpetuates that problem.
