As one of the apparently few remaining people on HN who like Google and are excited about the technology they're producing, I applaud this effort. I've had multiple doctors in my life who were worse for my health than seeing no doctor at all. Two of them outright looked up my symptoms (in a book in one case, and some shitty intranet in the other) to tell me what I already knew from googling it myself. We can do better than that. This is the way forward.

If we want to live in a pluralist society we have no choice, but to embrace narratives that bind us together through morality and ideology

Does this not seem coercive and borderline orwellian to you? We have to embrace narratives sounds an awful lot like 'accept things which are not true'. It is hardly any different to a religion in this sense.

Abstract ethics class morality plays itself out in my opinion. It is a platonic ideal that can be used as a model for behaviour but not as some kind of absolute. It deconstructs ways of life and papers over real differences. It promises us a sterile world that noone actually wants to live in. We want progress, but we (in my opinion) manifestly don't want eventual the destination the 'end of history'. As such like the business cycle there may well be a morality cycle that we cannot banish.

There is a similarity with technology. What if we as a society demand and enjoy change, but our actual happiness is reduced in the long term (you can imagine modeling this as happiness a function positive in progress - rate of change, but negative in the overal level of enlightenment - or whatever progress accumulates as).

Nor, for that matter, was the Iliad. The Trojans had differing goals, but they were not "evil" by even the Greeks' own metrics.

I feel like you missed my point. I'm not saying this is good or that it should continue.

I'm saying that, in the context of the world as it exists today, if I am the mayor of Boston, it will benefit my city to offer Amazon tax breaks to entice them to build there.
The HomePod is probably the closest you’ll get. Voice recognition for the trigger word happens on device, and requests are anonymized using differential privacy. iMore goes into more detail. Apple has no use for watching you, so they don’t. Amazon wants your shopping habits, Google wants anything they can use in advertising.
Agreed. I've had a doctor google my symptoms in front of me.
Nice, Google. Small changes:

The fact that Falcon 9/Heavy only support horizontal integration is a bot of an issue for some payloads (particularly those with people, or big optics). SpaceX will be adding vertical integration (the ability to mount the payload after the rocket is vertical) to its pad at LC-39A.

How much benefit does the average person get from being profiled like crazy across the web? Besides the (dubious) benefit of free services, there isnt much positive you can point to from such activity, and a shitload of really scummy exploitative crap.

The HomePod does channel differentiation with one device, but for true wide stereo you need two.
I only miss not being able to use some ES6 features, because of IE11 requirement. We can use closure compiler to get ES6 syntax support at this point, because browsers usable for development support ES6+, so it wouldn't need to be run during development, only for deploy. Webpack is not necessary for that though.

Live reload with ExtJS app would be a nightmare even with webpack. On-demand code loading optimizations are not necessary. Tree shaking would not help much at this point, because I've removed unused components manually. Proper namespacing (if you mean ES6 imports) would not help much. The app is self-contained and uses only a few external dependencies.

Weird tricks with Redux
Satan accuses Job of faithfulness merely as a means to an end, and dares God to let him wreak havoc on Job's life in order to prove it. God grants Satan's request, but Job remains faithful. The story of Job clearly shows Satan as being constrained by God. There's no good-vs-evil to the story beyond Job's struggle to remain faithful.

The 2018 flu season is ongoing. How could there be any conclusive research about vaccine effectiveness in the 2018 flu season when we're right in the middle of it?

The CDC is unequivocal about getting vaccinated.

> It's easy to pipe configuration through your favorite 'straightforward and powerful' templating language of choice to generate the stack template used by CloudFormation. I definitely wouldn't use CloudFormation at all without an extra preprocessing step of some sort.

The tricky bit is what kind of logic you can apply to values that are the result of provisioning/looking up resources in the first place, isn't it? Like, what dynamically determined resource IDs are exposed to the language and in what places you can reference them. Basically the capability of terraform's interpolation language vs. CloudFormation Fn::* constructs, I suppose.
Well the temptations of Christ for one.

The various demons Christ casts away.

The Passion has references to the Evil Spirit entering Judas.

The Nicean Creed mentions the harrowing of hell (can’t get more God vs. Devil than first asserting Christ is God. Then he dies and goes to Hell for our salvation. Then he arises from the dead to join the Father).

And that’s sticking to material almost 100% of Christianity agrees on. If I’d limited myself to the Apostolic churches (Orthodox/Catholic) I could add from their rich history (they don’t agree w/ sola scritura)
Are you perhaps forgetting the part in the first movie where they blow up a planet full of people as a demonstration?

Luke's story arc may not focus on that exclusively, but it does focus on it some, and he's not the only major character. Each has their own arc, but the backdrop is always "let's overthrow these horrible evil people."
You observe leaves shaking when there is wind (a correlation). To test for causality you need to make an intervention. You still the leaves - the wind keeps going. You block the wind - the leaves stop shaking. There clearly is an asymmetry here. The physical equations may be symmetric, but this doesn't justify calling a microphone "speaker".
Well I've seen many environments, and some only ran puppet manually whenever they would before had used ssh and made a change directly. Another allowed one group of admins to just continue to log in and make small config changes, then got alerts and diffs of those changes from running puppet in noop and incorporated those changes into their git after the fact.

It's a tool to be used however you see fit and what you describe sounds reasonable, but the most common (because default) setup I've seen is the 30 minute interval.

Which is why I would argue "time of last puppet run" is mostly fairly recent and consistent for all machines, but terraform apply is most often not run automatically, not even at daily intervals.

On the other hand, the bad guys were murderous tyrannical dictators for whom any failure was one- or two-strike death penalty, hell bent on ruling the entire Galaxy by blowing up inhabited planets... and one of them only switched sides while literally watching his son being tortured to death.

The other side had cute robots and spunky pro-democracy rebels.

Even if Luke forgoes literal teaching, at basically no point does he do anything really morally reprehensible (except unwittingly taking a few steps towards incest).
The temptation of Christ. Revelations. The Garden of Eden. Job. There are plenty of teachings about how demons are evil and dangerous as well. 1 and 2 Peter, for instance.
Strange. I've been to the Bay Area many times, lived there for a couple of years even, and I never saw anything like that, especially in Redwood City.

I'm pretty versed in the foreigner scams in China, but, they aren't applied to Chinese people. The main ones that apply to Chinese are fake goods at the small stores (very common, almost universal), a farmer in the middle of the street at night pretending to get hit or waiting to pretend to get hit, and the money on the ground scam.

Marijuana (as well as serotonergic psychedelics) generally makes people feel more united and similar in the positive sense, I don't know about any credible studies that would confirm this (although there probably are some) but I really doubt it can promote social hierarchization. Cocaine and alcohol, however, are known to stimulate aggressive-dominant behavior in individuals prone to it though cocaine will surely not stimulate obedience, it will stimulate people to resist propaganda/populism/nonsense and question more. The only well-known psychoactive substance that makes masses easier to manipulate is booze.
It would be much more accurate to say these objects are neither speakers nor microphones. It is not a surprise that all objects vibrate in response to sound waves. What characterizes speakers or microphones is that they are transducers converting between acoustic signals and electrical signals. None of these objects are transducers so it's not accurate to call them speakers or microphones. It is reasonable to refer to the system of camera plus software plus observed object a kind of microphone but certainly not to refer to the observed objects as speakers or microphones.

An aeroplane flies through the air and a submarine travels through the ocean. I can throw a rock into the air or into the ocean, that doesn't make a rock an aeroplane or a submarine.
sure, however analog computing has the advantage that you can solve optimization problems natively, in hardware. with qubits, you get a speedup but not O(1) solutions.
It's hard to read those in quite the same way.

Jesus, of course, famously got in trouble for associating with "bad" people more than "good" people. Faith vs works is an age-old debate in Christianity. And the Old Testament God was angry and violent, and in many ways would qualify as a "bad guy." Look at what he did to poor Job, whose only crime was being faithful. Demanding obedience is somewhat different than demanding moral action.

> How would they do this without triggering enough false positives to destroy their product?

This implies that Twitter has demonstrated that they care about practicing discretion when suspending accounts, and that they care what 99% of their (human) userbase thinks, and that Twitter's product is Twitter accounts. But they haven't; they don't; and it's not. The state of being pissed off at Twitter is the perpetual existence of all Twitter power users. Unless you're a celebrity, Twitter doesn't care what you say about Twitter. And the only thing important to Twitter's business model is keeping celebrities on Twitter. The reason that they don't give a damn about cracking down on bots isn't because they don't have enough $750k engineers, it's because dealing a blow to the egos of their Influencers by banning their botted followers would threaten their bottom line, both in terms of outrage from the 1% of Twitter accounts that matter and in terms of depressing their wildly inflated metrics.
This is exactly the idea Robert Shriller suggests in his recent Narrative Economics lecture.

I think the complaint is that you define a resource in some module, then do a bunch of refactoring with the result that the very same resource is now defined in another module, terraform will need to be explicitly told that it's still the same resource or else it will destroy and recreate it on application.

That is, it's about the file system layout of the .tf tree, not the state.
The Biggest Diabetes Lie
I think all of this is part of the "outrage" social phenomenon. Some of it legitimate, some it bogus.

It used to be fashionable to say the US was imperialistic and imposed its culture via soft imperialist power. But now since people are consuming Korean, Chinese and other sources of culture, it's kind of impossible to still say the US is a cultural imperialist without also implying China, Japan and Korea are cultural imperialists --not to mention Mexican "imperialism" in south America via their "telenovelas".

So, now, since imperialism is a weak strawman, the new dead horse is "cultural appropriation".

All cultures take from others. No-one "owns" a culture. They evolve. Without "appropriating" from the Greeks and Romans, where would we be today? It's a bogus accusation meant to incite a population and distract them from other more productive activities.
We should have a serious discussion about the impact of mass porn consumption on developing persons. Does it have no effect at all? Does it increase sex drive? Does it decrease sex drive? Does it cause depression? Does it lower depression? Does it effect sexual preferences?

I feel like our understanding on mental wellness is so pitifully small that something a innate as porn should be heavily studied.
It would be awesome if the New York Times shared the tools they've developed for this article to identify and analyze bots!

I usually hate those scroll-responsive animated web pages, but the scrolling illustrations and data visualizations in this article were particularly well done and pretty amazing.
Not just pretty (the initial face sequence) and clever (the scrolling iPhone) but also actually useful and relevant (like the subscriber graph data visualizations expanding over time). I would love to know more about the tools they used to make those too.

A plea to NYT from a subscriber: Please share some of that great software you've developed, and publish it on your github account!!!

My father got an 18 metre 1970s-vintage yacht in 1994 or thereabouts. I remember learning to plot accurate fixes using LORAN signals and hyperbolic TD lines. Getting good at that and coming up with (what I thought) were really clever transformations between Euclidean maps with hyperbolic curves to straight lines on a curved surface served me very well (at least in terms of intuition) when later I learnt of non-Euclidean geometries.

(I also remember looking through ancient manuals and building up an intuition for troubleshooting and fixing a thermionic valve-based RADAR, at least once in high seas with almost zero visibility as howling winds and lashing rain was pushing us towards a rock face. Fun times.)

I was referred to a lawyer by a friend who was laid off previously. Many people were being laid off at this time.

Also, I worked with lawyers at the company I was employed with. I asked one lawyer who I got along with to refer one. That referred lawyer was too expensive (big name law firm who works for corporations).

If you don't know any lawyers, you can ask anyone who works with lawyers. For example, if you have a friend who is banker or real-estate agent. Their lawyer will know other lawyers.

Most importantly, you should have a conversation with a couple lawyers (ie. interview them): "Here is my situation, do you think I can get more?", "If we ask for more, how do you go about it?", "To keep costs down, do you have a legal associate to do the work?".

Since you are interview them, calling local employment lawyers that you find on google is OK too. The 15 minute phone call is free, lawyers have to do marketing/business development too.

On a different topic: you mentioned stress. My advice to you is to make sure you don't turn it into a bad time in your life. You have control. You can make it better by doing things such as losing weight, improving your golf game, traveling locally/camping (to keep costs down), visiting family, building a side project, contribute to open source. All of these things give a silver-lining and promote a positive optimistic outlook. Also, these things are great in a future job interview when they ask "so what did you do with your time off?" A fun, positive answer is best. You won't be unemployed forever.
Apples to oranges. Try again.
The exceptions are likely a result of lobbying combined with fear of lawsuits. Motor vehicle manufacturers are a very powerful lobby and in particular have a historical grudge with repair shops (they want everyone to go to the dealer).
I definitely didn’t mean that in a statist way, as in enforced morality. I just meant that societies that don’t use kinship bonds inevitably use something else to maintain cohesion in society, religion has been used, founding myths (American republicanism, etc), and now it seems there’s a backlash against it all. My only point was that maintaining social cohesion in a pluralist society is no mean feat.

As a side note, short of making sure everyone gets a strong foundation in philosophy, I don’t see how you can maintain an agreed upon set of values in a pluralist society without some sort of myth. You call it “accepting things that aren’t true”, but myth goes beyond truth, IMO. Most values are untestable hypotheses, so they don’t really fall into a modern definition of knowledge or truth, at least as I learned them in my undergrad science courses. Humans are wired to think in narrative terms so inevitably the process of transmitting values across generations is going to generate some distracting cruft that is patently absurd, but that doesn’t mean the attempt at transmitting values is absurd.
