I've read articles now on three news sites about this. All of them cite "CDC analysts" but provide no names or credible sources. If these analysts are upset, why aren't they providing their names? Why do newspapers allow these anonymous sources?
This has been covered extensively on HN already: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15937017
I wish HN took a stronger stance on this. It is extremely annoying to get around paywalls on mobile / tablet, where I do 90% of my reading, and you never know before you click.

And then in New York we get stories of a kid being abducted on a 2-block walk from school.

I guess in my family the thought is: Listen, 99% of the time everything will be mostly okay, but that 1 time when your kid gets abducted or ran over is that 1 time when it doesn't matter how safe the other 99 times were.

Also in New York I can't count the number of times drivers almost hit me, or hit my friends while 100% in the wrong. The drivers here are insane.
I disagree. Within the last week Cardano has gone from relatively unknown to the 6th highest market cap on https://coinmarketcap.com. There is certainly enough of a surge in interest to make this a relevant post.

They don't try to solve this problem at all. I was looking for a cheap macbook charger, and ran across two very different products with identical reviews, spelling mistakes and all. I'm sure this is common, even. How hard would it be to automatically detect this behavior?

Not necessarily true. Quaternions are used a lot because they have some desirable properties over matrices. As far as I remember, they are smaller and more suitable for interpolation.
Does it really prove your point?

What you said you'd find helpful is a "global database of opinions" whereas being down-voted on this particular site is a very limited context.

Would you find it helpful if I happened to be in the key interviewer for a job that you really want and are fully qualified for and reject you based on my perception of you here, bubbling up through data processing and aggregation into a "global" system that's totally opaque to you? And further, that my negative reaction adds more data and pushes your score down?

Up/Down voting comments here is totally appropriate as limited to this context. Applying that type of data, invisibly aggregated across all aspects of your life is what's seen as a problem, correctly in my view.
First of all taxis have had a government-sanctioned monopoly[1] since the 1930s. So it's not the same at all. In fact medallion owners actually sued to try to protect their monopoly.[2] Disrupting a monopoly is not the same as disrupting a mom and pop business. Further most taxi drivers don't actually own those medallions they are just renting the car for the shift. The reason for this was the medallions fetched well over a million dollars for decades [3]

Also taxis aren't a vital resource in a city with 24 hours mass transit system. Whereas access to food and water is. So no its not the same at all, not even close.

And the mom and pop book stores were mostly put out of business in the late 1990s and early 2000s by the Barnes and Noble and Borders book chains. The irony is that Amazon had ended up disrupting them.

Lastly your whole argument is a strawman - lack of public dissent on one issue does not mean you forfeit the right to dissent on another issues.

Thanks for the precision regarding the hash.

Regarding the error, they are logged when a verify_block/transaction returns False, just to be a bit more explicit about what failed. In a real implementation, I guess you would throw exceptions instead (or use some Result pattern), but I tried and it cluttered the code quite a bit, so I went back to logging.

Plato compares different forms of government in the Politician dialogue (oligarchy/aristocracy, tyranny/monarchy, democracy; 302-303), where the democracy is described as the least effective form of government among all when good and honest instances of each are compared, and the least harmful one when bad and corrupt instances are compared. That's because it's static given how much effort and involvement it takes to even decide on minutia; and big, important decisions are very hard to make. Today this definition seems relevant and partly true to me, and I believe it is mostly an acceptable trade-off given the tendency to corruption of those who are in power (I have this vague thought that this tendency is probably a part of the stereotype of the politically-successful person).
I don't agree with this move. But I also am not outraged

Unnecessary. Anything the CDC produces better be science based already

Are some diseases suddenly targeting people based on their identified sex? If no, the CDC has no business discussing this anyways.

Might also be worth considering that your parents had little fear of strangers and you inherited that lack of fear.
This looks really interesting, but I'm wondering how you came up with the spec for the command language.

It seems a bit arbitrary and since this meant to be used in a machine-to-machine context and for security, wouldn't a binary protocol make more sense (which would get you smaller transfer size and resistance all sorts of string-based terminator attacks)?
Examine what? There is no evidence that any UFO is an enormously powerful alien spacecraft, in fact all evidence suggests the opposite. Enormous amounts of power can be clearly detected through emissions and effects on surrounding matter.
You're preaching to the choir. All of that stuff is what I meant when I said "If they don't [slow down], the street must be changed until they do." I assumed there were already signs in place.
> are swatting away with that comment is someone claiming to have heard that leak.

Yap. I'll swat a lot of online comments claiming someone heard there are aliens visiting earth from their uncle. I'll also swat away similar claims about contrail or lizard people. What would be the logical reason not to swat them away?

You can ask what would take not to swat them away? How about specific details about aliens, new technology example or some breakthrough in physics or other science possible from this alien technology. A clear video or these spaceships not some blurry shape moving on the screen.

> One could also look at the NYT article as another leak, no?

Is it? It's a leak of the existence of UFO. There is not doubt UFOs exist, I am not sure that's proof of aliens.

> I would think that if one had something top secret like this that one desperately wanted to keep under wraps despite the inevitable leak, the best strategy might well be to intentionally sow lots of bogus UFO sightings and create a subculture of UFO paranoia,

I would also intentionally sow bogus UFO sightings if I wanted to hide program to test experimental aircraft.

HN does make the submission source visible, so you can check that before you click. If it's a source you're not familiar with, you might still hit a paywall unexpectedly, but wsj.com (and others, like the Washington Post) come up frequently enough that you generally know before you click through.

What I don't understand is why, in the age of "fake news", journalists are not being more diligent about credibility of sources. This sloppiness empowers the exact thing they claim to be against. The only purpose I can imagine is to foment social media outrage and drive clicks and advertisement impressions.

Nope, he said the vast majority of violent crimes are committed by one group, not that one group is disproportionally represented in the violent crime statistics. Big difference, and it makes him completely wrong and it either reflects poorly on your reading comprehension or you're somehow trying to polish his blatantly racist statement in dishonest ways.

"The University of Melbourne recently advertised for three senior positions in mathematics intended for women. Their argument is that, by underrepresenting women on the faculty, they are not providing adequate support and representation for female students in mathematics (and by extension other STEM fields)."

So their argument is that female teachers teach feamle students better. So in this line of reasoning, traditional schools that separate by gender are better? Way to go full circle.

economics drives everything. we need a different incentive structure for news, and the readers are probably the only ones that can effect change.

Sweden doesn't record religion in the census. I'm very interested in seeing your source for your statements.

And "the vast majority of violent crimes" does not mean that one group is more disproportionally represented. Don't throw around words you don't understand, such as "majority".
Clarkes law isn’t a scientific principle. The only way that UFOs can be alien technology is if it violates all known laws of physics. Which makes them just as likely to be caused by Jesus Christ as aliens. Yet somehow i never see believers rushing to church.

Otherwise you can only examine through the lens of the known physics, which makes them being alien spaceships impossible.
Legit science. More likely for the money to go to MIT than a politician's friend?

No really, show us the public tender and the evidence that the money was well spent by tender won on merit alone. Or we are going to assume it is totally corrupt. Onus of proof used to be the other way around but Washington, yeah, it really does stink like that. This is why outsider populists like Sanders and Trump are popular. Everyone has had enough of this garbage.

I am incredulous that the current administration wants to ban the use of the words 'science-based' or 'evidence-based' because they are "unnecessary" or redundant. It seems far more likely that this is the same kind of political maneuvering that led Gov. Scott to instruct Florida officials to not use the words "climate-change." It's a deliberate attempt to obscure facts from the public.

Yes, deploying an easter egg via an add-on is pretty reasonable, hell if it's out of the way enough even in the core browser. But Mozilla didn't deploy an easter egg: they deployed an advertisement.

They aren't actually quite so low, though, because unlike many countries there aren't nearly as many deductions and tax credits available.

Presently, the UK has an effective tax rate of 18.6%, compared with, e.g. France which has a statutory tax rate of 33.33% but an effective tax rate of 11.2%. I believe the UK has one of the highest effective tax rates in the EU.
The CDC does studies on populations though. So now they can't say if the health outcomes for those on medical entitlements are on par with private insurances. Or propose studies on learning techniques to help deal with transgender issues. This is just more of Republicans denying funding for facts they don't want to know because the answers will probably not help their agenda. Similarly to how they say the CDC can't study any gun control outcomes related to mental health or really any reason.

Note: I know this is just for budget note but it's not a great direction.
> Trains require density to be feasible

But the density of even the wider Bay Area region (the CSA) is higher than the entire UK! How come that's dense enough for lots of trains in the UK but not dense enough for trains around the Bay Area?
The site either went down or was removed, is there an archive anyone knows of?
This makes the article much less potent. Without knowing the analysts and being able to confirm it, it’s just a case of he said, she said. HHS has a statement that says this didn’t happen.

It seems like the journalist should have worked to get a recording or at least multiple sources.
> "Are some diseases suddenly targeting people..."

While perhaps belying the name, the CDC's mandate is broader than only disease, it's general public health, including, among many things, occupational safety and injury prevention. Anything which may lead too injury or death can be considered under their purview.

Really? It’s been discussed a lot on various podcasts, on Twitter and I’ve heard multiple people IRL talk about that use case and the slightly annoyance it is with the iPhone X.

It is pretty common for spouses to have a finger added on their spouse’s phone for unlocking it with Touch ID, e.g., when you’re driving and get a message, you can give it to your spouse who can reply.

Many parents also have a finger added on their young children’s phones.

None if these scenarios are really possible with Face ID, because you’ll end up training Face ID with two faces. And while phones are usually used by only a single person, it is not an uncommon scenario to have a secondary user.

"Still" might be the wrong word here. Helicopter parenting is more an issue for the post 2000 years and was never this extreme before.

Considering public transportation, good infrastructure to schools or kindergartens was not really available in the 1980s in many German cities.

E.g. my school was a 6km walk with no busses or trains going there and cars not being a thing affordable by the working class. Nobody batted an eye back then.

Today parents drive their kids to school for 1km. That's just wrong.
The amount of energy required to operate a submarine or stealth fighter is less than a trillionth trillionth the amount needed to propel a starship. Asteroids don’t emit energy. That energy is easy to detect upon deceleration into our solar system.

And the limit of speed of light is a basic cosmological principle. Faster than light speed travel would violate all principles of our universe, it couldn’t exist in it’s present form.

The reason for this cultural paradox is because face-saving is associated with dishonesty. That is that the behavior is not aligned with the spoken motive. This is interesting to see, because this sort of dishonesty is common in American culture where the values are primarily kindness and productivity.

I find it interesting from my perspective as long time military guy where in the military subculture honesty is highly valued and kindness is not (it is just rolled into respect or otherwise ignored in favor of other virtues).
