HFCS is chemically identical to naturally occurring fructose and glucose (high concentration of simple sugars). Not advocating to consume it, but the possible harms of consumption have to do with simple sugar metabolism, and its consequences, and not the origins of the substance.

If it were a full featured "fiction" level Mecha, the main advantage is that it could crouch behind cover, go prone, jump obstacles and climb uneven terrain.

Add one more "tech level" to it and you can have a 1-on-1 mapping of the user's input and this allows you to have tanks that require almost no training to use allowing you to have your infantry be... well, big robots. The only advantage of that is if you can produce them faster than training would take.

I guess he is paraphrasing Wikipedia: "The presence of Ecclesiastes in the Bible is something of a puzzle, as the common themes of the Hebrew canon—a God who reveals and redeems, who elects and cares for a chosen people—are absent from it, which suggests that Kohelet had lost his faith in his old age."
That's to be expected, because apart from the general unpopularity of MLS, a one-size-fits-all policy doesn't make any sense with it. I would expect that anywhere actually using it in anger is using a policy developed specifically for that organisation.
> Makes you wonder if the NSA knew about it all along :)

Former head of TAO Rob Joyce said "NSA did not know about the flaw, has not exploited it and certainly the U.S. government would never put a major company like Intel in a position of risk like this to try to hold open a vulnerability." [1]

Who knows if that's true or not, though. Certainly the U.S. government has done exactly that many times in the past (like with heartbleed).

> "A lot of the features in Unreal arose from fallacies of what I misperceived other people did."

In both the programming and business world, I've observed this trait in successful people. I know I've had ideas that were ahead of their time, but was held back by that damn voice saying it can't be done or I don't have the resources. I wish there was some way I could "fix" that wiring in my own brain.

On the one hand, my skepticism has saved me more times that I could count from being conned or from bad deals. But it also has held me back by focusing on the problems instead of just blazing forward.

Question is whether there's all that much content worth searching for, when the incentive is to put clickbait left and right, and everybody knows search is heavily gamed and manipulated anyway. Check your recent browsing habits: do you actually visit many sites, and sites you recently discovered via search? Or would searching Wikipedia and stackexchange, say, serve you well enough with some search improvements?

It certainly is a possibility. I am acutely aware of it every day. It is incredibly high stress. That is why our core team desires to hire people to run the business day-to-day, so we minimize our exposure online and hence reduce possibilities of making opsec mistakes.

At least I am doing something ethical, to benefit people. This is more than I can say about working on adtech and privacy-invasive data software.
A blockchain ensures that some sequence of agreements was made in a way that everyone can trust. If everyone keeps their secret keys secure and solely in their possession, then no activity can be forged on the network by any significant likelihood.

Anywhere this concept has value, a blockchain has value. That's all there is to it. The rest is fairy dust and noise.

I don't really follow a lot of the discussion in this article. As I see it, most of the buzz around blockchains is just wild speculation and fantasy. For example, why would be want a "fat" protocol? In any other context in technology, "fat" anything is considered bad. Technologies are supposed to be "thin", simple, efficient, and composable. So why would the opposite be praised in this case? Furthermore, the characterization of existing foundational internet protocols as "thin" and blockchain protocols as "fat" seems like an inversion of truths. By my understanding, it would take as long or much longer to become well versed in all the nitty-gritty details of TCP/IP, DNS, etc. than it would to gain a solid understanding of Ethereum.
Also, where is the need for software ecosystem micro-economies?

None of this makes any logical sense to me. It seems people have gotten it in their heads that the simple technological innovations of hash trees and distributed consensus protocols are going to somehow make them rich. And they're finding weird ways of justifying this.
I believe the major players (Visa being one of them, and I know a Visa engineer) use formal verification for the actual money-handling code. Obviously, yeah, there could be mistakes with the verifier, etc, but the problems they experience are relegated to the "couldn't do this transaction" variety, rather than the "we did this transaction wrong" variety.
I agree that student loan assistance is important to understand.

My question is this.

That's a very wide brush stroke to paint. You just have to analyze each use case independently.

In the same example of land registry, just a transparent history is a huge value add when dealing with corrupt government officials. Here's a case study https://s3.amazonaws.com/ipri2016/casestudy_collindres.pdf . Voting transparency even with the government as the part of centralization is a huge value add imo.

Further, even allowing centralization in certain points, like a SpaceX IPO (which should def be centralized), allows whoever holds a share to make arbitrary, trustless mediums and rules of exchange.

Agreed. It's not currently an informed choice, nor clear it's even necessary. To steal from another of my replies: "You can have still have ads without invasive tracking, they just might not be as effective.

If the difference in effectiveness is enough to make Google, etc unprofitable than maybe there is an argument to be made that it is necessary.

If it means they make 10% less profit, people would probably prefer privacy."
I now use the same XMPP client to talk to Slack that I previously used with our own local chatrooms hosted on ejabberd.

However, others in my team are very dependent on the part of Slack that is less like XMPP or IRC: the built-in persistence that lets them scroll back or search for stuff that happened while they were away. This is clearly important to some people, who also bodged together persistence for XMPP or IRC using various bots or artfully deployed console clients in screen/tmux sessions on remote servers. I always found it strange, since I expect chat to be ephemeral.

For asynchronous communication, I wish all these folks had learned how to use email or usenet properly, since I think threaded discussion on mailing lists or newsgroups was far superior to what we have now in any of these popular replacements.

I still don't quite understand whether there is a majority opinion that "rooms", "channels", or serialized message boards are somehow a better UX for the average mind, or if it's really just the distortion of rent-seeking businesses always building this form that is easier to control and monetize for some reason.
Just a note: academic biblical scholars (theists and atheists alike) make strong arguments that the author is NOT Solomon.

The biggest issue is the complicated Hebrew used, much more complicated than earlier writings.

"The presence of Persian loan-words and Aramaisms points to a date no earlier than about 450 BCE"

Even bible.org admits: "To accept Solomonic authorship presently puts you in the camp of very few scholars."

Also, there is an argument that the ending was added by a later scribe (perhaps to make the text more acceptable for inclusion in the OT) because the ending goes completely against the rest of the Ecclesiastes.

PS I am not an academic scholar but have read a number of academic books on Ecclesiastes as it is my favorite.

If you had been able to read it, you would have seen that removing ads for developers is exactly one of the new parts. That makes them on par with stack overflow, which seems fair.

* Removed bundled adware from projects

* Implemented malware scans for every single project on SourceForge

* Built an HTML5 speed test

* Added multi-factor authentication

* Created an ad reporting tool and team to eliminate bad and/or deceptive ads

* Removed ads for developers (logged in users will not see any ads)

* Added HTTPS support for project website hosting
Haha, the search engine gigant doesn't have to care about such :-)

In the absence of elaboration on what you mean:

- Use simple language.

How does one patch a CPU?

Does the update come in the form of a BIOS update? If so, then the patch still has to travel through the PC manufacturers, like when Google patches Android. Or can it be somehow applied directly?

Edit: Apparently the OS can update the CPU's microcode. No need for BIOS updates. It was even done in the past. For instance, an unrelated Windows Vista update that updates microcode:

Almost everyone has troubles that disappear from a distance.
That is so cheap, smug, and uncivil a comment as to be a bannable offence on Hacker News. I'm not going to ban you because you've posted good comments as well, but please don't do it again. If I could sentence you to a moment's self-reflection, though, I sure would.

99% of online "news" organizations would go under. We'd be left with a few publishers that can survive on their readers paying to view the content. Similar to how TV/radio/book publishers/movies/etc already work.

Well said.

Wealth is built through control, while a distributed ledger rejects control by design. Now distributed ledgers have utility, but that does not necessarily mean they will create business value for entrepreneurs and investors.

It's almost like how regulation has value in society, but regulation is decidedly not profitable and businesses usually reject it.

No, not really. Your source of revenue is by far the most important thing to focus on. If you treat your clients well, you can charge a premium, and the additional revenue means you can pay your employees more and have more leverage when talking to suppliers.
Not sure if this is the same article, but this one has stuck in my mind for the past 10+ years: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-462091/How-children-...

Obviously with little kids in an urban environment we kept them pretty close to home. Once they were in 7th and 8th grade then the ranges got longer. And honestly, it was a challenge dealing with my spouse and other families who insisted on hover-parenting or refusing to let their kids walk 3 blocks to our house. To a certain degree, that is to their detriment because it doesn't allow kids to learn and explore.

Of course, my argument, along with the article above, was "They sneak out at night and wander all over multiple neighborhoods, so why do you feel the need to keep them in your sight at all times?" But that leads to lots of other parenting stories that I'm not going into here.
