I’m pointing out that the legality of overflying a country has always been and still is a lesser concern.

Mission profiles better suited to a plane than a satellite: anything that requires loitering, returning to a target, anything that requires a curved path that a satellite cannot fly or anything that requires close up - optics on satellites are good, but fundamental physics limits the achievable resolution. Hypersonic speed might not be required to fulfill the actual mission, but it allows shorter response times on all spots. It also would allow evading most intercept attempts.
That's a good point, and I think part of that is in order to get most alts you have to first get either bitcoin, ethereum or litecoin (or a couple others) first. Hopefully that either won't be true forever, or we'll get to the point where we stop using USD as the basis of comparison for all the currencies.

What would be a worse headline?

Something like that probably:

> Sniggering Linux users who believe in open code and open standards can take a hike. The Online Accounts systems in GNOME, Ubuntu Unity, Plasma, and MATE do the exact same thing as Window 10

ouch. but to be fair you can configure carddav/caldav manually on linux (but well I didn't liked evolution so much, mutt is okish but only for text. well mac mail.app is worse since it can't send csv files correctly (it adds unnecessary lines into it depending on the encoding)) (and well gnome only supports 3 email providers with cal/contact sync in their boxes which is microsoft, google and exchange (you can also add generic smtp/imap of course but it's about caldav/carddav), and one can prolly use nextcloud for carddav/caldav sync which is supported in the box aswell)
I see people taking strollers on the bus all the time...

Ultimately, all in-groups are decided by the consent of the majority of members, since everyone will self-select in the end: those who disagree will leave, those who begin to feel excluded will leave, those who feel unwelcome won't join. You can factor in leadership change and continuity as an additional complication, and the names and labels attached to the group will change, but the phenomenon remains the same.

Societally, we have recently gotten to the point of being able to talk about the importance of having spaces where historically marginalized groups can forge a shared sense of belonging and build up the social support structures that historically less marginalized groups have long enjoyed, but I don't believe we've gotten to the point of being able to have a reasoned debate about edge cases where different groups overlap in some ways, yet diverge in others, along axes some might find incompatible.

I also don't necessarily think that this is for the group leader to solve: this is a process that will take years of successes and blunders, and cause everyone involved to tackle an additional layer of delicate subjects that they may not be ready for. It appears that the group leader has laid out their vision, so for now, the points you raise will likely be addressed in a distributed fashion, in the minds of every member or prospective member, as time goes on.
I think it really depends on your lifestyle. I love to hike, snowshoe and ski. Public transit to Snoqualmie doesn't exist and lyfts would be incredibly expensive, if they would even take you there. Not even factoring in lugging heavy equipment around.

If you stay in the city almost all the time it's probably great. The minute you want to do something outside of the city it's impossible without a car.
Really underrated advice. If someone asks you for something you know is wrong make sure they get full credit.
So you think a better way is spending your evening trying to fix your square pegs so that they fit in round holes?

Why would you willingly do that to yourself? If we pushed browser developers to actually do their job, they wouldnt be pushing their weight around like they do now.
So it will be illegal to have sex at the back of an autonomously driven car?
How does this handle garage collection? I believe Webassembly doesn't yet support GC so, is this manually compiling it's own GC into it?
i think those numbers are describing a lifestyle
and not what it means to own a car. many people who own a car will not pay that much for parking. especially if you live 5 miles away from work.

assuming you don’t drive to work and park on the street at home your numbers are down to $4100/yr. but your insurance number looks 2x too big, and maintenance i would drop by half, i think more realistic is a about $3,000/yr
I am pretty sure we could come up with something like a switch in the option.

It's not doable with CSS only anyway, so it won't happen if they just design a new theme on the current XUL toolkit (correct me if anything changed about that lately).
What a shame. The Awl has consistently been one of my first stops in my Feedly tab. Guess I should have been clicking through and viewing the ads. :(
Sometimes it really is a zero-sum game. Pedestrians, bikers, personal cars, buses and trams compete for the same surface area, and out of those cars are the main cause of congestion due to their abysmal people/m^2 value.
And let's not forget its earlier sibling, the Sony 505G, which I had back in...1999. I don't quite remember what keys it had, but it really changed the way I thought about laptops. The 505 series really changed the game.
> Well, we still don't have the computational power to do things atom-by-atom

People do atom-by-atom molecular dynamics simulations of proteins and such.
I'd be interested in your reference. I think it's obvious that businesses aren't required to accept credit cards, checks, ACH transfers, whatever else. If they also aren't required to accept bills or coins, it would seem as though they don't need to accept payment in USD in any form.

This creates a problem for them, but why do you think they must accept USD in some form?
Think about people using extensions like NoScript to block JS because it offers this functionality. This is fairly relevant to these people, as they clearly also need a “NoCSS” extension.
Those traffic control measures are anti-pedestrian because they purely exist because of and in support of automobiles.

A situation with pedestrians only doesn't require those traffic controls.

A situation with motor vehicles only does require them, otherwise there will be an increase in the number of accidents and unacceptable congestion.

The mixture of the two requires them only because of the presence of motor vehicles.

It's very simple, really.
Thunderbird's problem, i think, is that their userbase contains a large portion of people who value thunderbird for it's stagnancy, but at the same time get angry if you suggest that thunderbird might be stagnant.

Thunderbird is the email client for people who want email to work exactly like it did ten years ago. that's their value-add, and it really should be their vision.
When you say "logic" in your database, that usually means views/triggers/functions. I don't see why you can not version them, keep them in git and treat as any other code. Yes there are edge cases where there are some interdependencies, or that it's harder to "replace" functions when the signature changes, but if you are just a bit careful, and try to keep your views/functions (logic) a bit separate from tables (state), then in most cases you can just replace them, sort fo like copying a new version of a file.

I would say that the tooling is lacking in this area but there is no big underlying obstacle that would prevent you from working with code in the database the same as with code in other envs. For PostgreSQL in particular, a combination of Sqitch and Apgdiff works quite nicely. I've combined them for a particular project structure (https://github.com/subzerocloud/subzero-cli) but this approach can be generalised. I have all my database code (including table definitions) in separate files/folders, split however i want (modules), work on them in any oder i need, when the time comes to deploy, apgdiff does the diffing between live and dev versions of the database, creates the new migrations DDLs automatically, and than those migration files are managed by sqitch and deployed.
Wait until these kids start families of their own and can't afford the space they need in a city with great public transit.
> I suggest you think a bit more before you fling a quote at somebody

I suggest you think a little more before sanctimoniously talking down to people. I was making a supportive reply, in agreement with what you wrote.

> at the very least you should make sure it is actually applicable to the topic at hand.

It is perfectly applicable. Light "being conscious and making decisions" is a neat explanation, but wrong.
You might have bugs in the real world that are caused by language features or idiosyncrasies that are visible in this artificial, small (thus more easily understood) toy example.

I often find these toy examples or trick questions (also in the context of C++ inheritance, for example) very instructive.
The question doesn't use a.equals(1) it is a==1 which is not the same and does not use the equals() method in Java, so it can't be overridden. It compares primitives or variable references only.

However, it is possible for that statement to evaluate to true with threads if you manipulate the a at the right times.
OK fair enough, but was he really the right choice for the title of the paper?
I get all of this but what about the Copyright Alliance lobbying group, that's likely where any serious movement will start.

I was getting advertisements from them for years essentially looking for case studies of either personal or "family" copyright (as in extension) and people willing to essentially astroturf.

I'm guessing the efforts just bombed. I don't see the ads any more and all the comments, where they were possible were deeply cynical and lambasting them.
There's a certain style to HN discussions that feels completely natural if you've been here long enough, yet may appear excessively antagonistic to people not used to it.

Specifically, 90%+ of all comments are of the "you're wrong, because..." variety. Note that there's nothing wrong with such comments: they make up a large part of any group's pub conversations as well, for example.

Yet there are other sentiments that are possibly underrepresented on HN: self-doubt, questions, or comments expanding on others' ideas come to mind.

None of these can obviously be categorised as singularity "male" or "female". And there isn't much shouting going on, even metaphorically. Yet it may, from time to time, be a good idea to step back and examine common assumptions,
There are also a number of small cities that have decent enough public transportation and are fairly cheap, but fall short on job availability.
Dude, seriously that seems like a terrible idea. We already have an issue with legitimate drugs.

Additionally the original argument was that cartels will seek out whatever means they can to make money.

It'll just shift their efforts towards other money making schemes, ie human trafficking or kidnapping and ransom.
Indeed. And automated driving will end a great deal of greed based revenue as well. And given the sensor data, proving lack of violation is trivial.

The $64k question is: what will states and counties do without police citation revenue?
actually it is defined, i believe you mean sequence point - in which case multiple updates are indeed undefined.

however, unless i'm mistaken,

a && b && c

is 3 distinct sequence points, in which case, the behaviour is in fact well-defined.

There is a reason for this, and I think you answered it just now.

Men don't need it - in technology and many other industry spaces, we are comfortable voicing our experiences because we know they'll be well-received and affirmed by much of our audience. We're the prevailing voice in the broad group, so we're already being heard.

If you're creating a space for men only, it's either because you're part of another group with a sidelined voice (e.g. gay men) or because you have Damore-esque ideas about the world and really do want to be exclusive.
Yeah I agree, if we could kill off demand we'd be fine.

As I jokingly stated though, drugs sell themselves.

Education doesn't work either - look at the D.A.R.E. program.
Can HN please stop it with this "not owning a car is virtuous" shtick? I went most of my younger life not having a car, only learning to drive at age 28. I lived in a new england suburb close enough to go to my work and shopping services at a ten minute walk at the time, and it still was horrid.

People here don't get how limited your life is without a car. You are limited to a ten-fifteen mile radius for everything, unless you use inefficient public transport which tacks on a huge time tax for even basic trips. You are captive to that transport, which means something like being called in is hard to impossible, as well as many duties of your workplace; dropping deposits off to a bank after hours as a manager, for example. That transport doesn't even expand your range that much, maybe one or two towns over; the time for further is so long as to be prohibitive.

Even with walking, you wind up spending far more time and expense on basic tasks. Instead of shopping one day you need to shop five, just because you can't fit more than a couple bags of goods. If you are on the bus, you can't even easily use perishables; 30-45 min one way is the norm. You can't do things like buy a mattress without tacked on delivery fees and more time spent waiting to receive it. If anything happens where you simply can't walk like doctor or dentist visits (because doctors don't always stay in walking distance of most people) that's an expensive cab or uber both ways. Sometimes its even worse...jury duty can be in the county courthouse 30 min by car and an hour and a half by bus.

You have no social life with no car. Not every town can simply cluster everything in one place; the downtown can easily be 30 minutes away from where people live. It took me an hour to walk to the comic shop one way; the bus would had made that longer, not shorter. Dates are impossible because of that; if the nearest date spot or bar isn't within five minutes, what do you do?

A life without personal cars would be a rather limited and even serfish one. Everyone assumes driverless cars might save us, but they have yet to prove they can even navigate a highway during a New England winter, which is what you'd need to do to replace a commute. People talk about bicycles, but 0 degree or snowy weather makes that horrid, as well as high heat. Please stop assuming cars are this evil thing that more walking and biking will solve; they wont, not at all.
You mean you cannot bid on keywords with very low search volume ?
An example would be great. Can you show how to do a given task with SQL, map/reduce, and your framework?

Because right now I have no idea why I’d choose to learn this new stuff over using google-able tools I already know.

Make your value proposition really clear.
You can get fined but you won't. The rule is that you have to cross using the crosswalk if there is one within 30 meters, any further than that and you are in the clear.
As someone from the other side of the pond I always found it strange that pedestrians could be entrusted to carry a loaded handgun, but not to cross the road.
That’s the ideal, but they are typically thrown out when you have ten candidates to interview and so becomes one more binary filter.
Not only RAM, but also disk space if you will resize permanently.
I agree that limiting one's accepted methods of payment is problematic for a business, but it's not illegal for a business to not accept bills and coins.
Sure, and the browsers that stray further off will get used less and die off.

And if you are using the latest and "greatest" JS features, you have to expect the failures that happen. If you enjoy sitting on the bleeding edge, don't complain about getting cut.

If you implement features using known, simple and stable tech, things will generally work great without needing to worry about special cases.
A surprising categorization by 23andMe certainly, but not one which detracts from my post: very few people would place Scandinavia in north-western Europe since that category implies that north-eastern Europe is an option.
Sorry for being that guy, but I just clicked into a random file in src to read the code, and found the code style (indentation etc.) to be quite weird https://github.com/asavinov/bistro/blob/master/core/src/main....

It's my observations as a jazz musician and a tone nerd. The buzzy, shrill reed sound of the saxophone is difficult for the ear. Trumpets are much closer to the human voice. I've come to prefer saxophonists who revel in the ugliness of its tone, and push its other forms of expressiveness - not just melody, but the marvelous squawky tones only a saxophone can make. (That said, I'm a huge fan of modern master Kamasi Washington, who has a luscious tone.)

Look at it another way... would you rather listen to doves, or geese? Tonal beauty is objective.

Describe to me how it's a run, I'll tell you why it's not. How about that.

Is it really that unbelievable that bitcoin breaks certain economic rules and that some economic theory might have to be rethought? Is that what you are implying? That economics is like "science"?
That strongly depends on where you live. Kids don't require a car in New York, but I can't imagine living in a suburb of Dallas without one.
How is a browser not rendering correctly not their problem?
IIRC you can use the browser to view them, i.e. a keystroke opens it in the browser. In Gnus I hit "K H" for that. Emacs also has SHR, a renderer for HTML, but it doesn't do all that good with complex documents.
I've been using netbeans recently and it has this very annoying and effective squiggles that warn you when you use deprecated stuff. It also tries to enforce some best practices by default
Gold and silver aren't stable, they fluctuate all the time just at long timescales compared to humans. When the Comstock Lode was discovered it massively affected the price of silver. Similarly when Spain stole Aztec gold it caused changes in the value of gold.

If someone ever manages to mine asteroids for gold or we discover a previously unknown reserve we'll see more price shocks.

I don't know where you got the idea that the supply of gold was stable; it is merely inflexible because it depends on physically digging it out of the dirt.
It would have to heavy regulation everywhere in the world.
Everybody misinterpreted what I've intended. SHORT RANGE BEACONS. Enough to be "seen" by car AI through obstacles. Here's the imaginary conversation between car and beacon:

- "Yes"

- "Who?"

- "Mind your own business, just slow down in case I decide to jump to the road, ok?"
What about all the times a car owner takes a Lyft instead of taking a taxi? Does that mean they ditched their car or does it mean that they were in a place where they needed a taxi?
I feel like picking a fight. What's the downside? It's super simple to hash them, and it prevents a read-only exploit from turning into a major catastrophe.

Example from something I built. If our db was used by an attacker, with all client API keys, they could go liquidate those accounts (place phone calls). Huge loss, and not far-fetched (this kind of attack happens daily and is profitable). With hashed API keys, nothing is possible. We don't even need to tell people to rotate keys. With plain keys, we'd need to freeze usage for people without e.g. IP address restrictions in place.

Read-only leaks happen all the time. Why not make sure they don't impact your clients API usage?

I'm not just trying to fight. It's a handful of trivially-validated lines of code that significantly mitigate the impact of a data leak. Seems like a super easy tradeoff.

I'd argue that very few computer applications need something that works like an ejector seat lever. In most software applications you have more than milliseconds or seconds to make decisions about big, dramatic (and potentially irreversible) changes, and thus they should have multiple levels of confirmation.

I can tell you for sure that they don't. I know people in corporate real estate that won a bid to lease corporate real estate to Google recently. But that's true of almost all offices of major corporations. Very few of them own their own buildings, except maybe a headquarters here or there. They pretty much all lease.

It's unclear whether atomic-level data would be useful in these sorts of calculations - the input data isn't known to sufficient precision. For more, check out the last two paragraphs from the Feynman Lectures Vol III Chapter 2:

http://www.feynmanlectures.caltech.edu/III_02.html

A similar sort of mechanism led to the discover of chaotic behavior in weather models - checkpointing results at a precision slightly lower than the machine's internal precision caused simulations that were resumed from the checkpoint to deviate rapidly.
I agree with some of the authors points. One item that is missing is the incentive structure.

Let's take mesh networks for example (as mentioned in the article). Substratum pays users in coins to share their network, which creates an incentive to grow the network (as long as the coins are worth something). If the coins are worthless, the model doesn't work.

It would take a lot of money to create the incentives without the coins.
Yes. You just need to look as far as this thread.
I get that using hard-coded constant is a bad idea, but using ASCII_A instead of 'A' is about as sensible as using SIXTY_FOUR instead of 64.

If A signifies something else, use that name; otherwise just use plain 'A': it already gives us as much information as needed, and has one less place where the programmer can screw up.
