You will get the experiences you need to go where you're going; being fired for pointing out obvious is not that bad, you did nothing wrong, it's their shitty karma. Can't you see the irony in doing something like that on facebook? The solution starts with making the right choices yourself.
QE isn't an implementation of Keynesianism; it's evidence of the absence of Keynesianism in policy-making in the primary place where Keynesianism is focussed, which is fiscal policy.
In the very same post where Google announced Java 8 being generally available on GAE standard [1], they also stated Java 9 support was already in the works. Of course, actual timelines are not publicly known yet, but I wouldn't bet my money they'll take another 3 years to get this ready.

That’s dangerously wrong. If you generated a password using only microseconds as a seed, an attacker who knew the day you did it could crack (an MD5 hash of) the password within a few minutes, for example.

I hope that guy had esprit up to here.
The water jet is moving just around Mach 0.9 so you need a rather complex setup to generate it and the nozzle likely has a short lifespan even if the plate is not eroding.
One use case would be for getting the product/market fit. Launch fast, then either fail fast or succeed and port to a cheaper service.
It's not as if the advertisers are blind to the your insecurities. They are targeting your insecurity with ads.

I should know. Worked for a small agency. First did print ads. Then specialized in PPC. Find the thing that keeps your target market up at night. That's what gets them to click. When I ran campaigns for "wellness" companies (which were scammy to begin with), the "stay healthy" angle never worked. The ads that performed the best were the ones that made the user feel anxious: Feeling tired? Weak? Gaining weight? Looking older? That sort of thing.

Think about that for a second. Is that nice? To intentionally make someone feel bad about themselves, to sell them something? Of course not.

Is it legal? Yeah. Should it be? Probably. But just because you can, doesn't mean you should. Unfortunately, that's not the win-at-all-cost mentality of business.
Not sure why its not more popular, its much quicker. I havent used anything else for ages

It will have little to no impact on low-functioning autism, unfortunately :(. Researching low functioning autism is far more complicated than the type of research I am doing.

BTW, I am diagnosed as high-functioning, but I am not so high-functioning that I can "pass" for normal or even close to normal in public. That is starting to change though.
Currently the top two tweets in the thread, both from @levelsio:

> http://RemoteOK.io is a single PHP file called "index.php" generating $2,342.04 in a day.

or then again:

> Record sales yesterday of $2,342.04 on https://RemoteOK.io for no apparent reason (maybe companies are spending their EOY HR budgets?). Normal sales is like $299
How long ago was that? I used to hate self checkout, because they were always slow (often taken a lot of effort to get them to recognize things), and would frequently stop and complain that you had not put an item in the bagging area (or would complain if you lifted an item from the bagging are to readjust the packing of your bags).

But a while back the nearby Walmart put in a bunch of new self checkout terminals, and they are great. Excellent bar code recognition, and I've never had any problems with the bagging area.

I am puzzled by one thing. Sometimes when I hit the "pay now" button it puts up a reminder to make sure to scan items still in the cart (they have a hand scanner for scanning things like big bags of pet food, or heavy packs of drinks, and similar that you aren't going to try to bag). I've not been able to discern any pattern to how it decides when to put up this reminder. In particular, I have not noticed any connection to total price of the items I've scanned, or number of items I've scanned, or to any particular items that might tend to be purchased with items that are generally not bagged.

The only issue I've had with them is that once I thought I might have double scanned something. I was buying 12 packs of frozen vegetables, and somewhere near the end I thought I might have double scanned one of them. The display only showed the last 6 items scanned, but there were page forward/back buttons. However, there was no apparent way to tell if page back went back 6 items, or if it kept some context, so I was not able to figure out how many items I had actually scanned [1].

I could not figure it out, and neither could the attendant. We decided I probably had not double scanned. Alas, at the end when I got the receipt I saw that I had double scanned. Rather than try to fix it, I suggested that I just go and grab a 13th pack of frozen vegetables, and the attendant agreed that would simplest.

About a week later (surely just a coincidence), there was a software update on the terminals that improved the UI, including making the scrolling more sensible.

[1] In retrospect, I could have went by the prices. I could have added up all the items other than frozen vegetables, and from that and the current total figured out the number of vegetables.
This is absolutely awesome. Sounds like a really great way to make the world a better place.

Not everybody is using fb, I hope you'll finish your http://garagescript.org/ website soon because now most links don't seem to be working. When you provide more details I think you may find some people who are willing to donate. E.g. is non-profit registered under garagescript? I couldn't find it. Well at least make contact and linkedin links working now that you are going to get some exposure from HN frontpage.

Got a bit too much into details, but what I meant to say, really great initiative, kudos.
Do some research on GC locker.
> Keynesianism implemented properly and without ideology is a reasonable strategy.

If you have an objective, you aren't acting without ideology, and if you don't have an objective, you have nothing at which to direct at strategy. Talking about a strategy without an ideology is nonsense.
What I get out of articles like this is that economic policy can easily fix the loss of jobs due to automation, but we will likely never see such policy in the US. In other words, job loss due to automation is a problem caused almost exclusively by the political system in which automation happens, not with the automation itself. Societies that make the right political decisions to accommodate for automation, like Sweden, have an advantage over societies that don't, like the US. Outside of jobs, this is obvious from comparing the different societies' approaches to education, parenting, and other social necessities, IMO.
It says on the page all orders are fullfilled by dominos. So yeah that is a pretty ludicrous price for a dominos pizza.
For people who don't know what this is (like me), they have a good FAQ explaining "Proof of Stake" vs "Proof of Work":

> In proof of work (PoW) based public blockchains (e.g. Bitcoin and the current implementation of Ethereum), the algorithm rewards participants who solve cryptographic puzzles in order to validate transactions and create new blocks (i.e. mining). In PoS-based public blockchains (e.g. Ethereum's upcoming Casper implementation), a set of validators take turns proposing and voting on the next block, and the weight of each validator's vote depends on the size of its deposit (i.e. stake). Significant advantages of PoS include security, reduced risk of centralization, and energy efficiency.

https://github.com/ethereum/wiki/wiki/Proof-of-Stake-FAQ
On the website, it says Dominos.
Properly practiced, the MVP concept should narrow your product direction to achieving pretty much only the day one practical functionality, with any promises beyond that being cut. But practically I see that many can’t quite get there and end up with real functionality promised down the line and useless features delivered in an mvp.
I don't think this is good advice. If you need synchronization use sych. primitives, java.util.concurrent etc., not thread locals.

Videos are pretty funny! Keep it up :D
PoW does that too since mining hardware costs money and is a constant arms race.
So people can’t be bothered to pm me yet I should toss out a side project idea I can just as easily crank out in my own should I decide too? And I’m downvotes because I prefer to keep this private? Fucking unreal.
Well, indeed. If you can't find a way to go one-level-up, that is to say, blocking at a router/network, hardware, or OS whitelist/blacklist type situation, i'd respond that the responsible thing to do is to blacklist the app.

I realise of course that not everyone will like that response, but i'd also say as non-flippantly as possible, that mature responsibility is, almost by definition, not participating in things you might otherwise wish to because of higher-order principal-based concerns.
Seems weird to put some of these languages up against each other when most of the time they are use in completely different project types games vs web vs apps vs front end vs desktop vs whatever.
Sweden is 'fine' and yet has to raise the retirement age to cover all the drain on their societal services?

Wrote this a couple of weeks before Mozilla removed the XUL/XPCOM add-on APIs
Or the cloud. Here is some math i did on it the other day:

digiconomist [0] estimates that current etherum mining cost is 1.3 billion a year, or 3.6 million a day, or 151,000 an hour, or 2,500 a minute.

Multiply by 5 for cloud on demand premiums and you could dominate the etherum network for an entire day for 18 million. You could also do it for free if you can manage to do it with stolen credit cards. I'm amazed it hasn't happened already.

https://digiconomist.net/ethereum-energy-consumption
The title should be "Fine for Now".

Maintaining Sweden’s social safety net also requires that the public continue to pay tax rates approaching 60 percent for their current amount of displacement.

If automation starts to displace a huge number of people, and there is no job to transition, the social contract will break.

I'm really hoping we hit a star trek style utopia (especially in terms of energy and food) before we get close to social contract breakage. I fear we won't though, we already seeing severe signs of the social contract breaking in the United States.
Proof of Stake should mean running the software.

If it's not good enough for that little bit of a stake, you must provide incentives for others* to run it, and this is going create imbalances somewhere.

* - in a real sense, this is users, not-using, and offloading the work to those who would probably not actually use without incentive; the only difference between a PoW and a "put your money" type of stake, is that now you've added an entry fee that is hardly different than licensing (as in professional licenses, for various trades).
Nope; it’s not. Totally social. Ask any trans person; I know many and this has come up in the past.
This was commonplace (along with self-checkout terminals) in Switzerland few years ago. A friend of ours used it and it was in fact very convenient and worked really well. The only caveat is the "spot checks", whereby they would flag some purchases for validation and have a shop employee rescan N random items from the bags. It's still faster than the regular checkout, but messes us the bag packing.
Care to share your 'stack'?

front-end/back-end/API's?
Yeah, why would smaller holders of ether would be excluded from PoS? Security probably. But it sucks that the small holders cant profit from their property.

Maybe there is a need to create a "cooperative" of sorts hodling the eth of many users and running PoS thus rewarding the owners. (like a pool but safety would be way more of an issue compared to PoW)
It's kind of tragic to apply for a patent on a newly discovered phenomenon without a foggy idea of the utility of such phenomenon and by extension of a patent on it. It's like applying for a patent on black holes. With the difference that pocket black holes are known to be very efficient mass-to-energy engines...

Phenomenons in science should be public domain.
Yup, my grandfather worked at a state prison, in New Hampshire, and when an innate described a vulnerability in the electronic lock system (back when they were new), the warden went to the judge to ask for a reduction of the man's sentence.
> One of the problems with Tinder is its nebulous ethos.

That's a "feature".

It makes it mainstream enough for people to be there without being embarrassed or ashamed.

Then people can turn it into more of a dating thing or a hookup thing as they prefer.

Few people would want to publicly create a profile on "just-here-strictly-for-hookups.com".

That's also why a huge percentage of profiles, especially female ones, insist so strongly that they are not there for hookups. It's a facade and a bit of virtue signalling ("I'm not a slut like those other girls!").
The entire sandboxing model was swapped out between Java 7 and Java 8 on GAE. That's why it took so long. No such major change is needed for Java 9, which won't lag nearly so far behind.

Also, not having access to Java 8 was painful. Not being able to use lambdas or streams for that long really sucked. There's no similar pain from not having access to Java 9 yet; it's not nearly as big of a change in the language.
Somebody made that algorithm, and ran it. They should be held accountable for what that algorithm does. We all know we can block the ads, stop using the product, etc. Now when is Instagram going to acknowledge that their product is user-hostile?
Can you clarify what you find valuable about it? I find it utterly hand-wavy, it calls people "hysterical", and then goes off-topic to complain about moderation.
RAM-less Buffers
But it's not just control, is it? Reading this sub-thread I'm not convinced some commenters have actually taken much of a technical look at Fuchsia. I'm not associated with the project but from what I understand there are plenty of technical merits:

1. Zircon, the kernel, is entirely capabilities based. No users, no groups. Those are higher abstractions built on the capabilities system. This is all around a win for security from executing 3rd party drivers to building a sandboxed multi-user system, not to mention is just generally more flexible and less error prone at the kernel boundaries and internally.

2. The WM is scene based. Applications draw to a scene which the WM composites and renders. This means a single draw list is sent to the GPU for each pass instead of many apps spamming their own updates. Also you can do cool things like have objects from one app cast shadows on another app.

3. The kernel API is not a bloated mess and will not become one. Keeping the number of syscalls on the order of 10s not 100s is a design goal. You can see the commitment to this in the way the project is structured. Which brings up:

4. Testability. The project was designed with testability in mind. Not Enterprise Java mock and verify the world shit. Just good practice separation of responsibility between the different layers and enforcement of a sane unidirectional dependency relationship from lower to higher layers. Good luck testing the Linux kernel.

5. The system will update from a single image rather than relying on N parties to pull new patches into their distro and update and test everything N times before releasing to people. Again layers.

This isn't all new by any means, but it's a pretty practical approach to an OS in 2017. This isn't an "academic microkernel", and also decidedly not *nix.

Enough evangelism. Point is, the project is not solely designed to give the big G more control over a platform. Not saying that is not one goal, but technically this thing checks out.
There is a good documentary on this. It focuses mostly on voice but the source is similar: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Do_I_Sound_Gay%3F
The thing that drives me nuts is I see ads for a long time after of products I just bought. I already bought the product, why would I want to see tons more ads for it (especially when I saw zero ads before I bought it).
With life expectation rising this seems a reasonable thing to do. How else do you want to deal with this?
I think one thing to consider is that there is economic disincentive against acquiring >50% of the network, and even more disincentive against attacking it once you have 51%+. You have to pay full value to get >50%, but Ethereum could lose absolutely all value if anyone gets to >50%, so whatever the investment to get that stake would go to zero. The issue is whether can malevolant entities or coalitions can reliably be detected.
Hn, I don't think this guy should be downvoted for asking critical thinking questions. We're here to learn, so be kind, and engage.

1) I don't see a way this could be done directly

2) Maybe? If the plasma was radiating RF energy in a certain band you could maybe make an resonantly coupled antenna and recover some energy.

3) Definitely not. Nuclear fusion is not happening here, merely moving so some into a super excited state causing them to radiate photons of a multitude of frequencies and produce heat.
My actual comparison was with being pushed into water with a great white shark.

Hitmen with the same kill rate as going swimming with great white sharks, would not get much in the way of repeat business.
> With Serverless you have to do zero system administration, patching, maintenance, security hardening, etc.

Sounds like "serverless" is just a new buzzword for shared hosting, with all the same downsides plus increased vendor lock-in.
>>Scenario 2) I work a paper route to earn ETH to validate. The world is the same as in Scenario 1, but the strained silicon, fab time, expertise, electricity, etc. all went to work on other projects instead of mining equipment, leaving the world slightly richer.

I provided a counterargument to this:

>>It diverts economic activity to non-economically productive activity in cycling capital into and out of deposits, which results in less liquidity.
There is and considering how powerful the chinese government is, they could do it easily: https://medium.com/@homakov/how-to-destroy-bitcoin-with-51-p...
The patent isn't on the phenomenon, but on the method of producing it:

The stream of water is an 85-micron-diameter jet blasting from a specially designed nozzle at 9,000 pounds per square inch that strikes the crystal plate with an impact velocity of around 1,000 feet per second.

Perhaps this exists in nature somewhere but but it seems pretty unlikely. I too would prefer it to be public domain but we live ina market-dominated society right now.
This is embarrassingly a Google-wide problem, not just a GAE problem.

Stick with Java or Go, I'd say.
This is awesome! Please keep us posted on where we can donate in the near future.
100 watt is way too much, 25W/each is a more realistic number.
I made the leap and partnered up full time with a friend & former coworker on his indie game "Clone Drone in the Danger Zone", a third-person laser-sword-fighter where any part of your body can be sliced off.

We released on Steam[1] Early Access in March, which was a special moment to be a part of (I grew up as a kid playing games on Steam, the process behind game creation used to be a mysterious fascination!)

In 2017 we built and released a ton of fun updates -- a Steam Workshop integration, Twitch Mode & Twitch Extension (where chatters can spawn enemies), and a super ambitious chapter 3 that added AI allies and a multi-part tower-assault adventure with fun scripted/animated moments.

Coming up next we tackle multiplayer. To do that, we first spent a month "burning a pancake" by making a small free multiplayer game called "Long Live Santa!" [2]. Within 3 days, more players had installed that game than the game we'd spent over a year on... it just hit over 100,000 players, just over a couple weeks after its initial release. We were surprised to see the momentum that releasing something for free generates.

It's been a lot of challenging, varied work, with more autonomy and skin in the game than any previous role and I absolutely love it.

Going in to next year we are going full force on adding multiplayer to Clone Drone, using the lessons learned from Long Live Santa to guide us. (& if you've made a multiplayer game before, would love to chat some time and swap notes!)

But we don't all realize the effect this shit is having. And if we did, we wouldn't be reacting so non-chalant about it. I think it's an interesting post, and it's a more nuanced criticism than just "too many repetitive ads with attractive people."

You need only watch the YouTube video about the Xerox Star from 1982 to see that the desktop is conceptually the same now. Sure, we have better graphics but all the key elements were there 35 years ago. I'm sure there will be innovation in other areas, perhaps in AR or VR, but the desktop is done; frozen in amber dated 1982.
But at the same time, the average life expectancy has also increased at a similar rate.

Edit: Adding to this the retirement age has not yet been raised, but is only proposed to be raised.
Seems odd that the compiler can't inline this pattern.
I think the argument is that it's not economical to set up towers only for emergencies. Technically no problem.
She can use the website version to read her feed or use a DNS resolver that blocks ad domains. If her primary purpose is to stay in touch with friends and family, there are also plenty of other apps for that.
GAE does still have a free tier. Also, being able to run as much stuff as you want in the cloud for free does not seem like a reasonable expectation.
Maybe I should've said TLA+ w/ model checking since that's definitely lightweight versus full, formal verification. Far as Lean, it's specifically designed for proving stuff about "complex systems."
Thanks for the tip. Will check it out. I'll be happy if it moots my hackery.
By “0” I mean “cheese only”. I could have been more clear, thanks for the feedback.
Beautiful! Of course, no finite probability could ever prove that no solution exists, but being able to say that the odds of a solution are 10^-31 is, for all practical purposes, a guarantee there is none.
How to “recycle” Paypal Money?
Hi to all
I have about 800€ on my paypal account and i need to get this money to my bank account and i can't do this because the others accounts of paypal that i have are all limited and i need to "recycle" this money but i don't know how.
With bitcoin and without ID i'll lose about 165€ in commission o.O and it's crazy...
I should buy something with paypal, like a course or a service that i made, get the money on my bank account and be happy but I didn't find any site that do this.
Do you have any idea?
thanks
Distributed system using Akka/Java, and a related ML platform in Python.
It is a bit more nuanced in the book, and you should read it as the subject matter is so addressed toward your concern.
