As romantic as "coming to peace with mortality" might sound, I enjoy living life too much to idly accept that i will at some point feel the breeze in my hair for the last time, or never again smell a flower's perfume, or gaze on a beautiful view. Sure, if everything fails, i will have to accept it. But why not give my everything in the mission of taking life further, even if i can help it by an atomic amount? What if there were as many great minds working on solving aging as there are working on cancer research? Why not try and bring a contribution? What if everyone else capable would have the same realisation? Why sit idly and wait to be carried by waves to nothing at all?
Maybe the law is very specific in the color and amount of light that emergency signs and row lights are allowed to have?

I'm just speculating, but I don't remember the last time I saw a non-green exit sign. I think I've seen them red but very seldomly.

Could that be something preveting such innovations?

I'd be curious to know whether there was any context given with Nathalie's exoneration. For example, "it was invented by her jealous peer" rather than just "it wasn't true." Might the revelation of deception induce extra skepticism, inhibiting someone from believing the truth? Could a model explaining fake news could help people to better integrate the truth?

No, but combine cloud APIs, AI, and market consolidation and you will indeed see a reduction in the demand for code. I write much less code than I did ten years ago. I spend more time integrating others' code now than I do writing my own.

I had a course on computer and network security at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. One of its prerequisites is that you need to know C. I didn't know any. I told myself: I am language agnostic, I can learn a programming language on the fly.

The first assignment we had to do was bruteforce passwords on a Linux machine. There was a user text file and an encrypted password textfile. This was supposed to be easy, I barely passed it.

The second assignment was to simulate an attack that Kevin Mitnick did on a supercomputer. We had to spoof TCP sequence numbers from a computer that we didn't control, but back in the day TCP sequence numbers were guessable and in this assignment they made the guessability a bit easier. I think I used libraries such as libpcap and maybe anhoter one. I did a bit better than just barely passing.

Assignment three was looking at binaries with source code in C and find the vulnerability and exploit it. I nailed it.

That's how I 'learned' -- got some inkling of workable knowledge -- on C.

I'm a bit more mild on how easy it is to be language agnostic from the get go though.

Nope, that's the upside of a draughty old building, all the air leaks keep the place well ventilated and pretty dry. 14C is not too low, in fact it was pretty common before the age of central heating.

Additionally, I'm on the ground floor on a street corner, so three walls exposed to the air and one wall shared with a large garage —— which i assume isn't heated.
If we are going to have a society worth caring about and living in then we have to have shared burdens. Sometimes I’ll help pay for something I’ll never use for the benefit of others. The go it alone mentality leads to a shitty society. It’s proper, right and just for society to provide universal higher education for qualified people. It’s beneficial to everyone that this be the case.

Besides, in the U.S. a great generational theft has occurred. The older folks benefitted from much higher public support for their higher education. Now they vote to defund higher education and this has led to penury for large numbers of recently graduated college students.
It's much cheaper and easier to install when building a house then add on after the fact. Which I suspect is a large part of the issue as people don't generally consider utility bills when buying a home, and the home builder does not realize the savings.

Yeah, that is an interesting idea. I'm not sure anyone is making an ASIC for speech-to-text right now, but if they were, it could enable this sort of thing. Might show up in a teardown, though. A General Purpise CPU could of course, do it, but that would push the bill of materials for the device up quite a bit.
Do you really believe that nothing we do matters? That it’s all a roll of the dice or uncontrollably riding the waves of systematic oppression and privilege?

I don’t see how that’s useful. Yeah, life is not always fair but if you don’t believe in free will or that you can actually have some impact on your own existence, then what’s the point of even living it?

And let’s be real, if you’re good at what you do, you’ll be fine. Every good developer can get a job. That’s the economic reality we live in. People are capable of achieving that with hard work.

Like you said though, it doesn’t matter. It worked for me and it worked for millions of other people so whether you think that was luck, privilege or something else it doesn’t impact my success. What you may accomplish is encouraging people who could help themselves to not do so. Probably not even that though because the kind of people who can help themselves are already used to ignoring the naysayers.
You could do something like that with polygot-maven.

Not if X is problem solving, which is what I was getting at really. For example, you could teach a monkey to teach X to another monkey, but what if the other monkey did not consume the learned material. Then the teacher monkey would not be able to adapt to still achieve the goal of teaching the student monkey. What you say works, assuming what is being taught is simple, and there is no feedback from the monkey that is being taught to teacher monkey.

That feedback loop from student to teacher, is similar to a problem that you tried to fix, and it still doesn't work. You then need to adapt, just as the teacher monkey would need to when the student monkey did not understand what was being taught. How you adapt to the input from that feedback can not be taught, because the particular feedback that one will receive in the future cannot be predicated (for complex troubleshooting etc).

Sorry for bad monkey examples. :)
Yes - ASan or Valgrind detect invalid reads. You could either use them during the fuzz run (and take a performance hit) or after the run on the generated corpus of test cases.
> ... I cannot stop my brain thinking it's gambling. Without insider knowledge I don't understand how I could beat the market short term.

That's a smart conclusion that's correct in the vast majority of cases. Day trading, especially as a retail investor, is mostly gambling.

If you have funds to invest medium-to-long term, index investing using low cost, well-diversified funds really is the best thing you can do. Is it gambling? Year-over-year, an equity fund will certainly have wide swings up and down. However, since your horizon is long term, most people think that the market will be going up, averaged over the long term (a decade +). That is what the past has showed us.

While past results are not a guarantee of future performance, it would be highly surprising for the market as a whole to do down, or even stagnate, for a period of 10+ years. Yes, people often cite Japan, that's exactly why I stated well-diversified funds above: limiting yourself to a single country can be risky.

What is certain, is that if you are sitting on large sums of cash, inflation is eating away at it. You are actively losing money.

Neural network balances pole while programmers mumble something vague about C. Elegans. Non-story.
Agreed. If you genuinely do put your extra-money aside, and invest it in index-funds, etc, you will probably end up with a higher return than if you pay off your mortgage early.

That said most people plan to do this, and never get round to it.

I knew I was making a "mistake" when I started putting all my spare money into paying off my mortgage early, in the sense that I could have achieved more money by investing. But it seemed obvious to me that owning my house would let me ride out problems more easily in the future - my bills would suddenly come down to "electricity, food, and little else".

As it happens my wife and I decided at reasonably short notice to change countries. Having paid off my mortgage allowed me to rent out the place, without having to worry about getting permission from the bank, or anything similar. I just had to register as a landlord and switch to a more expensive form of insurance.

After two years of being abroad selling the place made sense, to avoid complex cross-country taxing issues. But by owning the place outright we had the freedom to try renting for a while, and worry less about income.
This is why I always read the HN comments first. Thank you.
Considering smartphones didn't exist until 2007, I think lots of tech actually do consider 10 years to be the dark ages.
If you're interested in figuring out the costs, they sell devices —— called calorimeters i think -- which you can stick on the storage heaters and will make pretty decent estimates of the amount of energy released.

My car is older than that. My toaster over is old, I've had CRT TVs that were much older before they died.

I'm actually not surprised that journalists overestimated Hillary's chance of winning. As a group, they are predominantly coastal and almost uniformly college educated. Both of those groups broke disproportionately toward Hillary.

Non-college educated Americans broke disproportionately toward Trump. It would seem given the relationship between college graduation and cognitive ability (the bottom 20% in cognitive ability rarely graduates from college) that this is reasonable support for the correlation of fake news belief with Trump support.

This is not true. Retail investors don't move markets. Pension funds, hedge Funds, large investors do. And they do so when the FED decides to moves markets ( aka raise or lower interest rates ).
Children don't produce anything but consume nearly as much.

The exploitation of the old by the young is the bedrock of civilization. An "old person" invented the computer you post to HN on.
World population decreases because people are dying, and increases because people are being born. It's enough to decrease the total population to have the global reproduction become lower than global mortality.

By the same token, if a certain group keeps reproducing at a high pace, but the majority of the world keeps having fewer and fewer children, the overall number of children will decrease, so the curve will be past the peak.

The Struggle to Keep Programs Simple
Accessibility is always important to mention, which is why we should thank you for reminding us. In return, you have to understand that not every next important application will be used by blind people or people with disabilities, and as of such there is still room for people to develop new UI toolkits if they so please.

Again, thanks for reminding everybody. People need to think about it. Your advice could be toned down a bit to “please think about your audience, if you expect people with disabilities to be part of it think twice when making your own UI toolkit, or at least factor in the costs to build in accessibility features.”

I have no specific technique to manage all of good contents on HN. If I find a post or thread that has a good content, I usually upvote or favorite it. But, as you said before, it will grow bigger and bigger as a list on your "upvoted submission" section profile.

I think using Pocket or other bookmarking tool is one of the method because you can give a tag or keyword to your bookmarked content (searchable).

Well, at the end, I agree with someone who said you don't need know everything. Our brains have a limit. Choose the topic that suits with you.
I suspect the YouTube API is similarly simple. Search to get a lost of video IDs. Look up video ID to get thumbnail, title, description, list of video stream URLs.

It connects linera algera to group theory, yes. But representation theory is by far the least "visual" branch of group theory I can think of. It is on a similar "abstract nonsense" level as category theory (and I don't mean that in a bad way, it is just how things are). The only visualizations I can find in my representation theory scripts are commutative diagrams between group homomorphisms, vector space homomorphims and some module endomorphisms and what not :)
An interesting 20/80 rule going on here. The good news is if we can fix whatever issues affect this 1%, we solve 63% of violent crimes. Or maybe I'm naive.
@zabana what goals do you have in addition to learning C?

As you can see, the answers are all over the map. Nothing wrong with the question, nothing wrong with a discussion, but "write a program of some kind" might not help you at all.

It's worth asking why learn C, because the answer depends on what you want to do. I like C over C++ for various reasons, but I would still recommend C++ unless you have a reason. I like C++ but I would still recommend starting with Python or JavaScript unless you have a reason. C & C++ are for high performance. Do you need high performance for sure? C is harder to learn, use, and practice well, and slower to develop in than today's scripting languages.
I've been there. I recommend the book, "The Hard Thing About Hard Things." It got me out.

One of the keys to remember - with tech, unlike a lot of businesses, you're playing 3D chess. Not only do you have lots of moves, but the market shifts, the possibilities shift when new tech is introduced. People always get excited when something like cloud or blockchain appear, but their real value is to companies with an existing customer base like yours who have a large market but hit some barrier in the unit economics and such.

You should probably talk it with your investors too. Zombie companies are bad for VCs, practically as bad as failures.

Selling the company will get some money back. You might be surprised how much you get for it too.

Remember, not everyone participating in the financial markets is simply speculating.

Indeed, many market participants are hedging their business operations, future production/consumption of physical commodities, etc.

So, when a speculator takes the opposite position of someone looking to hedge risk value is created for the hedger. Sure, it's not necessarily tangible, but it isn't nothing.
I lived in a dormitory built that way, with double-pipe steam heat. We'd nearly all turn off our heaters in the winter; the ex-californians kept the building so warm that the rest of us opened windows to get down to a bearable temperature. Delightful experience, really.

Spaniard here. While not ubiquitous, household AC is not even rare nowadays.

It depends a lot on the area though: it's uncommon in the north/west (where temperatures get pretty low during the night even during the summer), but not in the south/east where temps won't go below 25ºC for several days (and nights) in a row.
