Yes, cause the most crucial ones are technologies about getting things into orbit and sustaining life in obit, creating habitable environments and so on.

Whether on a planet or in space those challenges aren't much different and whatever you gain as knowledge on a space station you can apply to a moon base later on.

Furthermore, the challenge of building a space station and not suddenly run into budgeting or construction issues is many many many many times higher when it comes to establishing something on the moon.

Each new learning that could be done on the space station will come as at a much higher cost doing something we don't have good enough technology to do with-in a realistic comfort zone.

If you like me believe that technology is the primary forcemultiplier for any realistic development into space the trick is to focus on developing within our comfort zone, until we it within our comfort zone to risk a next step. Then you will actually end up with a space station much faster (and a mars station and an out ring station and a space ark etc) because of the exponential force of technology.

Modularity is central in MsA; don't like the way this service is designed or something better is available (FaaS) with lower implementation cost than net-new, in-house services.

Was going to say, great art, but is there only one object to pick up and use?

I spent 5 minutes navigating rooms and mindlessly clicking and nothing happening until picking up one object and finally using it to solve the riddle.

Any red herrings?

It's expected to work. I've tested it on mine, Haswell i7's own iGPU, and a full sized GCN Radeon, with a game rendering on the Radeon but displaying on the iGPU.

Multi-monitor setup with 2 on the Radeon (normally all 3) and 1 on the iGPU, seemed to work fine. No real visible lag either, from what I could tell with limited testing.

I think there is a useful small-scale pattern of 100% independent tiny apps - not quite microservices, since you don't really have to jive with discovery and things, but it's not obviously wrong. However, I do think in many instances, splitting stuff into separate services at this level can be a form of premature optimization, and it can easily create a lot of drag when a monolith is much easier to refactor and munge.
The Surface Book has a full-bore NVidia GTX 1060 in it. It cannot charge while the 1060 is going 100% in a modern AAA video game (yes: it uses up so much power, that if you plug it into the wall-outlet and game, you are LOSING power).

GPUs use up tons of power, but 99% of the time they sit around and are "off". There's no need to turn on the GPU when browsing Facebook, and modern Win10 can keep the graphics card off.

Anyway, 100W TDP is perfectly acceptable for laptops, as long as this is a "worst case" TDP. Besides, gamers do want to game, and many are willing to accept bad battery life for the ability to run Witcher 3 or Tomb Raider on the go.

But this is where the entire argument of "do first page load server side because it's faster" doesn't make any sense.

Because then aren't you suggesting that after that, all the other pages can be slow?

The worst sites I visit now are React.js like sites, instead of the page load being slow, _everything_ is slow. Ugh. I can't wait until web 3.0 and this silly balogna with the "make a browser with React and run it inside a browser" fades out...

(note, Netflix _removed_ their js rendering from their home page cause it was slow)
You really want multiple layers of "server" code, one of which is a tweaked version of what's on the client, and one of which is purely server-side.

For example, you can't trust client-side code for security/authentication purposes. You almost certainly don't want client code to connect directly to your database and run arbitrary queries/look-ups. So some kind of server-side-only wrapper around your DB, at least, is required.

But the reason you'd run "client" code on the server is to have a layer of universal HTML-rendering code. The server needs to do it for fast initial page loads (and SEO), and the client needs to do it for fast, offline page loads.

At the same time, there's a bunch of code that will run on the client side only, e.g. click handlers, animations, etc. There's essentially nothing for that code to do on the server, but I think it's still basically correct to call it "universal" when you mean "client code that can also run on the server" which is what Sapper provides.
Fundamental particles are pointlike and dimensionless. They have wave-particle duality and have characteristic wavelengths however on the order of 10^-16 m or so for hadrons and quarks are about 2000 smaller.
"Scientists Can Now Blame Individual Natural Disasters on Climate Change"

There are two parts to that title:

1) "can now" implies that something significant in scientific understanding has changed
2) "blame individual natural disasters on climate change" is clear

#2 is flat out wrong because, see my quote above, the article makes it clear that the scientific consensus is still that individual events cannot be directly attributed to climate change.

#1 is wrong because nothing has changed.

Scientists can predict that the probability of extreme events in general is rising due to climate change but that is not proof that any specific event is attributable to climate change. That is not new. Nothing has changed in the consensus scientific position.
The cars are pretty nice too...
And when someone else modifies the code and introduces a subtle bug, will you attribute the costs handling that to this same timebucket?

How many customer minutes lost = 1 developer minute?

That said, I think tests are the most expensive and most brittle way to address this problem. They're necessary, but should be deployed sparingly.
it is terrible at generating passwords and saving them

1Password used to be better at this. Generating a password was pretty obvious, it was consistent across mobile/desktop, and the save workflow was better. It’s been several versions since that was the case (v. 3, maybe?). Now I have to hunt for the functionality and then it gets put someplace with no reference to what it is.

Plus no check on password integrity or strength or leaks. It was nice to do a scan and check on what passwords should be updated, what my duplicates are (if any), mass update, etc

I know the Mac version will give you all of this. Compromised sites, dupes, weak passwords, old passwords, there’s a filter for each, and I think you can make your own. It does not appear that you get this on mobile, though.

We may each be a part of HN but that doesn't mean we can't criticize what we perceive to be the gestalt of HN.

It's like saying "<Insert Community / Country / Organization Name>, goddammit!"

I personally don't mean that I'm better than everyone in said community, but that I'm disappointed with the prevailing sentiment, and so feel the need to signal my separation on the issue.

It's shorthand "I don't identify with <Community> on <Issue X>".

People do indeed abuse this rhetoric to feel superior to others, e.g., "Reddit is a hivemind!". But on issues where the community clearly falls prey to its biases, a little snark now should remind us to avoid those collective pitfalls in the future.
Codurance | Software Craftspeople and Apprentices | London and Barcelona | Onsite

At Codurance we help development teams and business to continually improve their products and process. We value the principles of Software Craftsmanship and have a shared passion for continuous learning.

Our Software Craftspeople have a broad appreciation of technology and a depth of expertise in key areas. These will include expertise in the JVM, .Net or Node.js stacks, plus expertise in areas such as cloud technology, building a DevOps culture or perhaps Cyber Security. We believe however that technology can be taught. It’s more important that our Craftspeople, regardless of existing expertise and experience, share the same passion for continuous learning and clean code principles that we do.

Our Apprentices share our passion for creating well-crafted software but have not yet had the suitable learning opportunities to refine their craft. A typical Apprentice is already a productive developer in the language of their choice on the JVM, .NET, and/or Node JS platforms at the start of the programme. They will know of Agile processes and practices and can apply them and are looking to become an expert in reasoning about them. They will have basic knowledge of micro level and macro level design.

I don't know if I'm part of the target audience envisioned by the author and editors, but the article served me well. The landscape of physics, while beautifully unified, is nevertheless so vast that I'm essentially a layman outside of the areas in which I've done research. I'd heard about all the things mentioned in the article, but now have a better appreciation of how they fit together and arose historically. I thought everything was well and honestly explained.
If you're on Hacker News, I'll bet that 99% of your country's population is less tech literate than you. It's too easy for us to enter that mindset of, "how could X ever be? It's so obvious!"

I'm completely guessing here. I've never used Yarn before just now, but I suspect you'll find some of your answers in there.
New York Stock Exchange | https://www.nyse.com | New York, NY | Lead and senior engineers | ONSITE | Full-time

We are looking for quick learners who enjoy working with modern software development tools in the financial and capital markets space.

Knowledge of specific frameworks or libraries is less important than a broad knowledge of software development practices, and an ability to learn.

At the NYSE, we are building customer-facing web applications with tons of referential data and many downstream systems.

Must haves:

1. Significant experience developing web applications and web sites.

2. Very good grasp of Python 3.5+ or TypeScript. Both are a plus.

3. Some knowledge of the other language listed above.

4. Willingness to work with both ecosystems.

5. Relational database experience, ideally PostgreSQL.

6. An understanding of automated testing and when it’s an asset and when it’s a liability.

7. Clear, concise coding skills. Your code is more often described as "clean and elegant" than "clever."

8. A healthy amount of patience for firewall/infrastructure navigation. We use modern stacks and have access to most tools, but still operate in a regulated environment.

Nice to haves:

1. Understanding of formal methods

2. Bash and vi fu.

3. Mypy and static typing experience in Python.

4. React experience.

5. Django experience.

6. Static typing experience in other languages: Java, C++

7. API design

8. Rust experience

Show HN: Calculate your 2017 and 2018 federal taxes

Most companies seem to use stock grants these days, not options, no? And ignoring those means you're not actually paying comparable compensation, right?
> #2 is flat out wrong because, see my quote above, the article makes it clear that the scientific consensus is still that individual events cannot be directly attributed to climate change.

Scientific consensus doesn't make something true. Climate change is true because we measure it, not because most scientists say it is. This is an active area of research, a brand-new area in fact, and making claims like "Storms cannot be blamed on climate change" is absolutely incorrect. We're still finding out the answers to those kinds of questions, and just now it's become potentially feasible to actually do it (blame climate change for a specific event).

> #1 is wrong because nothing has changed.

What? Of course things have changed. That's what this whole article is about. The methods are maturing and data access is growing - the nature of publishing a peer reviewed paper that blames all or part of an event on climate change is now an accepted practice and it wasn't before. This is change.

I still see no issue at all with the headline. It is a perfect fit for the article and is not wrong in any way.

Edit: I've been banned from HN for a while I guess, unable to comment any more. I'll respond quickly to the comment below:

> > Scientific consensus doesn't make something true

> This is the same argument the denialist use. I am not sure how it is relevant to anything.

You cut up my paragraph and removed the context from my comment in order to make me look like a climate change denier. I'm not. Why did you do that?

> > making claims like "Storms cannot be blamed on climate change" is absolutely incorrect

> Nobody made that claim.

I never said they did.
This is the one hope I have, with huge amounts of wealth concentrating in a few people's hands we may see pie in the sky stuff like Moon colonies and space tourism start up.
Two pieces of feedback.

First, tutorials like this should include getting this running using TLS by default. Ideally there shouldn't be any reference to plain http at all.

Second, the DSL for Kube and Ambassador seem ridiculously complex for this. Maybe some explanation for what "imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent" means? This kind of configuration harkens back to the myriad of Jboss XML files, just in a different format. For me personally, I get all the reasons why you'd want to use k8s, but for a "getting started" user, seeing this kind of required config -- rather than sensible defaults hidden away -- would get very discouraging. ("Why should I learn this DSL instead of just making sure I had a correct puppet setup?")

>realistically if your little app blows up to that level, you can figure out how to break it apart into 'micro' services

I disagree, when your little app blows up and your backend dies, then you could very well miss your big break. In this crazy world of overnight success you need to be ready to handle the HN or Reddit hug-of-death.

Maybe you don't need to split your infrastructure into services, but doing so makes scaling a breeze.
