Thanks, this is a good list. It sounds like there aren't a whole of cases where game theory is explicitly implemented in code, but there are some.

The reason I'm interested in explicit implementations in code as opposed to theoretical narratives is because actual implementations have to deal with the not-so-nice cases in the real world, i.e. unaccounted-for interactions, stochasticity, flat-out incorrect conclusions, etc. (there are however some deterministic problem domains where the above aren't issues, and I'm curious to learn what these are). Every model is a simplification, but game theory models usually have less correspondence to reality than most hence my curiosity. Game Theory is often thought of to have broader applicability than it really has (due to hype). My interest is identifying those domains where game theory actually "works".
I'd missed that .. so they're not State borders, they're federal, and States don't enforce those laws.

Border controls wouldn't be wrong, it would be if you did unlawful searches and such that would be wrong.

Out of curiosity what legal move makes the State not obliged to prosecute the Federal government under this amendment for breaking the State law? States wouldn't be able to ratify it (it seems to me: otherwise they'd be making laws allowing unequal treatment of persons), so it must be pretty early and high-level - presumably there's a blanket Feds can do as they please (wrt state laws) that makes this possible?

OP meant something different, which I agree with:

Thanks for asking! jazzle's feature set is currently roughly that of buble's, so I guess that won't be something jazzle will especially win at.
As for speed, jazzle was about 70%-80% slower than buble, at least the buble I installed about a year ago.

but please take these into consideration when comparing the two:

* jazzle always tracks tdz -- buble doesn't; I'm working on a way to make tdz optional.

* jazzle always records source-maps, so any comparison against other transpilers should take this into account. (as an aside, jazzle's sourcemaps are propably much smaller than buble's; there are some other tiny, cool features there too but I havenot yet found time to document them)

* jazzle tracks all top-level scopes during name synthesis; buble tracks just the first, which means things like 'var a; { let a; (function() { var a$1; a; })(); }' will not compile the way it should. actually, I created a gist, https://gist.github.com/icefapper/f672b71f569b95c0c1a8e31746..., and sent its link to Rich, but never received a response; it may be that he simply did not get to scroll down enough, as I'm sure he is a very busy man.

* jazzle, while fairly up and running (it can build and bundle and minify itself in slightly above 2secs on my 2011 vaio), has still a number of bottlenecks; after all, all these two years were spent to just rush it into production; with enough time (say, two months or so), I am very much confident I can make it run as fast as buble, without making any compromise on its accuracy.

* these, and I would be very glad if you could help me with the benchmarking!

robots.txt have no legal validity.
Exactly. Imagine where Netflix would be without it's original content at this point.

Initially, I thought it was just a kind of frustration. For the cost to acquire rights to shows, you could just create your own original content that you own outright, and they did just that.

But now I see that even if the cost of acquiring other series were dirt cheap, the negotiating posture of companies offering the content to Netflix could change at any moment.
The Uber Nerd in me says the purchase was to secure rights to Star Wars: ANH and the fanfare.

This will also open up the doors for a complete unedited despecialized edition of the original trilogy, not some bad laserdisc scan.
I wouldn't call that cash.
We were thinking about it, but we should keep a niche to keep the platform alive. Scaling the platform to different professions is possible when at least one works really good.
You're assuming a review wasn't paid just because it is critical? Competitors pay for critical reviews too.
As I posted below:

Own words? Most of the blog posts are done by people much smarter than me. I could do a 1 or 2 hour PPT Presentation trying to get to the point. I think only a few people would be able to follow me. Not, because I am so tremendously smarter than them (I have a PhD), but because the topic is so tremendously complex and interlinked.

This being said. It does not hurt to read this blog posts and think about them. The conclusion would be: We are f...ed. I may have a very negative outlook into the future and I hope that I am wrong. But I am afraid we are running into mathematical limits. Quote from the last blog post (Galactic energy scale) "But let’s not overlook the key point: continued growth in energy use becomes physically impossible within conceivable timeframes."
Then again, if you understand how energy, debt, growth and our society are interlined, this is NOT good news. Stay on the level we have now? Impossible. Read the first blog post. We are running in circles.

I don't mean to downplay that issue but what does that have to do with Puerto Rico? It seems like any article we have about Important Issue A there's always at least one (usually several) comments that are something along the lines of "yeah well Important Issue B is also important/worse/better/something!"

I'm sure that Perdue Pharma is getting more valuable as the nation's opiod crisis worsens, too.
I've always held that the extremes of corporate power look a lot more like feudalism than anything else.

The main difference being that corporations divide up the different experiences of life, where fiefdoms divided the land. In the end we have absolute rulers in their own private domains who only have to pay a small tribute and lip service to the nation they are nominally aligned with.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars:_The_Clone_Wars_(200... is on netflix right now. I think it was made by lucas arts.
First, thank you very much for the write-up, I sure found it interesting as well as entertaining.

When using bug trackers, I find the most frustrating aspect is the "non-linearity" of the workflow. By that I mean, how do I answer the question "What am I supposed to do next?". You can sort by project, or by priority, but what I typically end up with is a list of items that I already looked at a dozen times. And even though I don't want to look at them a second time, I haven't found a way for a bug tracker to do that for me. Ideally, I would want to look at each task at most two times: Once for triaging, and once for working on it. That's it.

So the way I understand it, you're trying to address this, at least partially. A task starts out as untriaged, then you tag it as triaged, and that means you only had to look at it once for triaging. Which is great, because it's a linear workflow.

Some tasks are obviously critical, and will end up in the next open release milestone. Some belong to a feature that is not released yet. But what about the stuff that ends up in the backlog? These smallish, nagging bugs that are not super-critical. That is the big, ugly pile that keeps growing and growing. How do you keep that big pile manageable? Ideally, that pile shouldn't become big in the first place, but how do you prevent that from happening?
You can always test the workload on your desktop, then push it to a cloud provider.

A big part of the issue is what level the decisions are made— in Japan, zoning is largely set by the national government, and in Ontario, at provincial level. In Silicon Valley (and most of the US), the decisions are made at the level of small suburbs consisting mostly of single-family homes, even though such decisions have can have huge impacts on the national economy.
> A third line of attack is likely to become important soon, perhaps as soon as next year. Former Facebook executive (yes, another dissident insider) Antonio Garcia-Martinez argued earlier this year that Facebook's ad targeting based on data collected from users is essentially unethical (and also that Facebook oversells its targeting ability).

That last parenthetical about overselling points to a fourth line of attack: fraud. There's been a lot of rumbling for years that FB (and Google for that matter) are not doing enough to combat fake clicks / views / likes and are essentially ripping off advertisers. If everyone smells blood in the water all of a sudden due to these other issues heating up, there could be a lot of pressure on these companies to provide more transparency. That could bring their revenues way down.

A currently-popular literary theory (strongly espoused by Jorge Luis Borges, whose translation of Kafka's Metamorphosis was highly influential to Marques) is that the translation of a literary work is, in fact, a brand new literary work authored by the translator. The fact that languages don't line up one-to-one, and the fact that language (and literature) is deeply entwined with culture, means that the translator has to make a lot of creative decisions when translating, and that the final product can never be a 'perfect' reproduction of the original text.

It's not necessarily about enjoyment, as it is about reading what the author wrote as opposed to what the translator wrote. But this also means that sometimes, the translated work is a good work in its own right and worth reading (Borges once said "The original is not faithful to the translation"). So, it really depends on a lot of things. But for Marques in particular, his works are very tied to Spanish culture so even as an outsider, learning Spanish and reading the originals still isn't quite the same as reading them as a Spaniard.
This issue is definitely not isolated at Amazon. It isn't even a regional problem. The same issues exist in offices at Lab126, UK, NYC. It's not a retail problem either..

I don't know. The pathological case could include a rapidly changing robots.txt. Think about archive.org's policy. If they suddenly find new restrictions on a domain, they hide it in their waybackmachine. Sometimes an old site will go down and be replaced by totally new owners. This breaks some domains of the waybackmachine retroactively.
I love Facebook. Do you have a problem with that?
There are a lot of different types of professionals, with different types of needs. I would suspect that for the vast majority of the target demographic here, upgradability just isn't that important.

You can make ethical arguments about whether people ought to care, or whether the option should be available for the few people that do, but I just don't personally see a lot of people doing upgrades these days.

For businesses, the cost of paying someone to upgrade a fleet of machines isn't there compared to just depreciating them over 3 years instead of 5 and replacing them more often. For a lot of independent professionals and home users it's just not worth the effort. The machine works until it doesn't and then they buy a new machine, and this one will get resold on craigslist or eBay, or get handed off as a substantial upgrade to some less technical family member.
Yep, but reasons are clear and not random.

It's relevant because it (further) demonstrates our remarkable collective ability to ignore really big and dangerous problems.

Man you're all over this thread handwaving away real concerns because of your parents. It's totally reasonable to think that a family with kids who moves to Nebraska is still going to be food insecure. If I'm an unskilled worker and I can live in the bay area near my family, where I'm comfortable, where I have friends and I'm food insecure or I can go move out to the Midwest where I have none of that and I'm still food insecure because now I have the added costs of childcare, less public transportation options, etc. AND I have none of the support network I had around SV then there's no way I'm moving. Maybe the difference between all the people in the article mentioned and your parents is that what made sense for your parents actually doesn't make sense for these people.
Also make sure you invest heavily in Enron.
Ironically, capitalism converging to few monopolies or quasi-monopolies controlling everything was one of the big arguments anti-capitalists used to use when I was younger: that if it's got to be monopolies or quasi-monopolies, then it's better if they are State-controlled monopolies.
AppleCare covers almost nothing. Any cosmetic thing they can find "out of warranty". And 3 years is not a lot for a machine that can cost up to $10k. Besides, they erase your data and it often takes weeks to fix (or even 1,5 months in case of my Macbook). They require you to give up your password (a nuisance to say the least if it doesn't boot at all to change it). And besides, there are a lot of places on earth where there is no certified Apple Dealer without a substantial drive or even flight. It just bugs me that a consumer electronic vendors have aggressively started implementing a model where it's no longer /your/ machine. You rent it, and with the flick of a switch they can brick it or decide to no longer support it. This icks me particularly because it's labeled a "Pro" machine.
Unfortunately, it appears that most people don't have any actual values. They just follow the whims of pleasure and utility, and base other views on whatever their dominant culture has been spoonfeeding them. Makes it rather difficult to find "minded" people at all, much less anyone like-minded.
I actually forgot the motherboard in my build that’s another $500 since Xeon-W is only supported on the workstation chipsets.

You can easily do 70% for 50% of the cost but that isn’t the point.

Show HN: Genius – Live Quiz Game with Cash Prizes
White Settlement is definitely not semi-rural IMO compared to how many towns in TX are rural and semi-rural. However, having also grown up in a similar style area just west of there, I concur with not hearing anything like GP mentioned. It's unfortunate that GP had bad stereotyping/racist experiences, but it's fortunate that they visited every single city and are able to make these claims about all but 3 or 4 without doing their own stereotyping.

Hi Everyone,

Wanted to show you my newest app: Genius. It's a live quiz game that you play on your phone every day at 8pm ET / 5pm PT. If you answer the questions correctly, you win real money. Tonight's game is just 5 questions with a cash prize of $100. It's still in "beta" so I would love feedback from you guys.

Some of you may recall that earlier this year I created MovieChat.org (here's the Show HN post that made it to the front page: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13653948). MovieChat's still up and running (and doing well!) but I've been wanting to do something in interactive media for quite some time. Had originally planned Genius to focus solely on movie trivia (for the MovieChat community), but ultimately decided to broaden into other areas as well (like math and physics!).

I'll try to stick around on here and answer any questions. Hope to see you tonight!
Antitrust regulations should kill google and facebook, but they’re not. In my opinion those two are much bigger fish to fry than two movie companies.
Zeno’s paradoxes
For my family it's not so much racial slurs as the constant question "what are you" because rural white people aren't used to seeing mixed race Asians. The question is dehumanizing, especially when you hear it your whole damn life.
I enjoy running into people or meeting up with them periodically to keep in touch with anyone who isn't a close friend. That way they can tell me everything they've been going through in person. To me that's more fun than getting a stream of micro updates on everyone.

Keeping up-to-date with multiple people using FB is like trying to watch multiple shows in short snippets concurrently mixed together. When you could just wait a bit and then watch it all as a contiguous story or have a real meaningful conversation with a person to catch up over dinner or something.
Users will have to explicitly opt-in to advertising and tracking, and GDPR says you can't deny service to people who opt-out of these privacy protections. GDPR is pretty specific that you have to explain to users why you collect data, what you use it for, before you collect it, and then get their explicit opt-in to use it in that fashion.

the plan against a Russian tank rush now is the same as it was when it was the Fulda Gap[1] they were protecting: tactical nukes

We often have to rebase our feature branches before they can be merged, so changing the history is common and force pushes are inevitable. As a rule I don't base any work on top of unmerged feature branches, because there is no expectation of stability.

I like the commit history to form a narrative of meaningful changes. I don't think commit messages about fixing errors that were introduced in the feature branch's previous commits belong in the history.

It sounds like you're looking for a managed services provider. Many hosting companies will do this or partner with companies that do. You can start there. I believe that this is one of the few things that Rackspace still does. Of course you could try to find a system administrator or two who would be happy to do some part-time work in exchange for a retainer.
ugh Apple is insufferable right now...
I'm no expert in functional programming, but this feels a bit inside-out and backwards to me. It's writing f(g(h(x))) as x.h().g().f(), which doesn't read like function composition to me. If anything, the comprehensions already built into Python look more natural and more functional:

(f(v) for v in (g(u) for u in (h(w) for w in x)))

The dots in the x.h().g().f() notation also suggest mutation (since we're calling methods on objects here) in a way that makes me uncomfortable.

But like I said, I'm no FP expert. My objections are basically aesthetic. Maybe if I used it, I'd learn to like it.
Most consider that there are 6 “majors” in Hollywood. Disney, Fox, Warners, Paramount, and Sony.

In fairness - it's sometimes pretty fun to write a review for something. I kind-of enjoy it - probably why I'm also a prolific commenter on reddit and (less so) here.

Have never been compensated for a review. (Or a comment on HN or Reddit for that matter).
Ah, interesting. I've seen the 27" 5K Dell, didn't realize it needed two DP connections.

I assume that in theory the graphics drivers should be able to merge the displays and present it to the OS as a single screen. That's how my UP2414Q works, which is two halves driven by multi-stream-transport over a single cable. It was rather unreliable in Windows though.

EDIT - While my experience has been that the screen worked better on a Mac and sucked on Windows, other people have had similar experiences with multi-display problems in Mac land, so I wouldn't write it off as just a Windows problem. Recent discussion thread here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15881207

So yes, a built-in display that probably works more reliably is definitely a bonus for the iMac Pro. Counterbalance that with the fact that when the computer's obsolete you're dumping the screen along with it.
For the most part I agree, but I feel there are grey areas. Things like web browsers (which are not robots) can access the content as though they are from a human. But what about extensions or apps that do things in the background, such as caching the contents of several pages for offline viewing. Is that now considered a bot.

The robotstxt.org site states that a robot "should" obey the rules. "should" is not a legal term that implies compliance. "must" would have been more appropriate to indicate enforcement.
Ask HN: Are there any blogs/publications that are focused on “search” software?

That's an uncharitable interpretation of OP's point of view. I interpreted OP as saying something like: these people obviously can't afford to live where they are now, they don't have an reasonable expectation of being able to do so anytime soon, so they need to change what they're doing rather than expecting someone to come rescue them.
