Yeah, but the Europeans showing up is part of history in the Americas. Thus, the horse influenced human history throughout most of the world. And the cultures of the pacific islands aren't really capable of proving or disproving any broad generalizations about human history. The pacific islands are separated from the mainland by thousands of miles and constitute a tiny land mass.
'+' is dead, but you can (usually?) fake its role via quote-wrapping individual words - it'll force their presence like a full quoted string, but won't require them in sequence.

'-' is still working. It also works with the 'site:' tag, so you can do things like '-site:w3schools.com'.

There is a reason I avoided the value judgement and stuck specifically to the culture of shared cognition.
It's not hard to imagine that, at some point, the sensible business strategy for certain types of US companies may be to simply not operate in the EU or certain other countries. That's not commentary on the rightness or wrongness of EU regulation but simply that, at some point,it may just not be worth operating in some geographies. GDPR is one example but so is right to be forgotten, etc.
There are several differences if you watch closely. First you will see a more complete picture of the aircraft movement on the surface. Second you will noticed the flightradar attempts to predict where aircraft are going while the airportviewer only reports where the aircraft says it is.

Speak for yourself - I've hosted my own email for over half a decade and never had any issues whatsoever. Set it up once, keep paying your DNS/VPS provider, and update your box every now and then, and you won't have any issues.

Of course, it's more work than having Google or Fastmail do it, but so what? I'm sure a significant majority of HN readers already have a VPS and domain name of some kind. Setting aside a few hours to set up a mail server on it isn't the indentured servitude many of y'all make it out to be.

Somewhat related quote:

"It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets." - Voltaire
"I appreciate that a lot of people start with C-ish syntax, and a similarly large number of people prefer that syntax, but I’ve never heard anything that demonstrated an intrinsic benefit of C syntax."

Short stuff is easier to type and maybe to read. There's that. Far as its "design," it was made by tweaking BCPL to make it run on a PDP-7 and then PDP-11. The assignment change was admitted as personal preference. BCPL itself was an ALGOL with LISP features that had every feature for safety, maintainability, etc chopped off to compile on a terrible piece of hardware they were stuck with. There was little to no design: can't overemphasize they literally just kept what that one machine could compile. Far as C, even structs originally weren't in it but got added after their failed attempts to port UNIX from assembly. Presentation below has proof from historical papers written by BCPL and C inventors.

People just assume there was sensible design because of all the C code out there (argument from popularity). The brain then starts rationalizing attributes about it that were designed or hacked in for totally different reasons in a past of constrained hardware lacking knowledge or tools of modern, language design. That context no longer applies to most users of C. It's just myth-making by users reinforcing use of it.

Yeah, and because it's reliable, you don't need to worry about security issues -- the worst this can do is abort the application.

Whereas for this bug it's quite possible that it may be exploitable. Especially given that the crash backtrace doesn't always appear in the same place -- something is corrupting memory that gets discovered later. (This explains why I can sometimes get the string to render for a split second before crashing)
I'm involved in the design of embedded systems for a relatively consumer market, and I've looked into making my company's designs more accessible to modification/software manipulation. There are a few (sometimes major) costs to allowing the modification of software that people tend to ignore in this discussion:

- Support: If you want to make your product more accessible to repair, you need to provide support for that. This costs developer time (making the code nice enough to be externally visible, maybe putting together an SDK, making sure any actual secret sauce or anti-counterfeiting systems are blocked off), customer support time (you WILL get calls when somebody buys a used system with modified firmware that doesn't work), and increases the hardware costs (want to provide a JTAG port? that's PCB space and BOM cost).

- Brand reflection: We've all seen how much of a ripple the wrong person having a bad experience with a product can have on the market. Say somebody buys a modified Initech Widget (tm) that has a bug or burns some other expensive equipment that it has to work with. That person complains on their friendly local social media network that Initech Widgets have a habit of (say) turning off furnaces in the middle of winter so the user's pipes freeze. Suddenly Initech is dealing with a media storm because they allowed modification of their software, which brings us to...

- Liability. What happens if somebody modifies the software in my product and somebody dies, burns down their house, or (* forbid) makes it possible to cause harmful interference and the FCC finds out? How do I prove to that user's (or the FCC's) lawyers that I shouldn't have to pay the damages? Let's assume that, as in the case of tractors or mobile baseband modems (which seem to get brought up a lot in this case) that software is a FUNDAMENTAL part of ensuring the safety/compliance of the unit.

Every time I've been through that calculus, the answer at the end has been, "I should do everything in my power to prevent the firmware of my devices from being modified".

I can understand and sympathize with the arguments in the other direction, and as a consumer I'm both qualified and interested in modifying the software on my widgets, but it would take a lot of change in the way our society works before most companies will put themselves at risk by supporting or even allowing it for their products.
I find this the least compelling reason, to be honest. Especially when I check how many brackets and other decorations I have in a typical java file. The majority of the code, actually, has a similar number of brackets, and way more commas. :) (Specifically, most java could be a lisp if you just move the function name into its paren and remove all of the commas.)

Granted, the bike shedding that goes on in our industry is hilarious. I think many people blame semicolons as one of the major hurdles to learning c nowadays. The things we fixate on...
He didn't shape much at all. Asimov was the literal definition of a hack; he churned out writings more or less nonstop, and most of his work is nonfiction and forgotten in time. His science fiction in general wasn't particularly that good, and he's more of a prototype of Michael Crichton when you consider his fiction; both managed to seize on a single idea that was striking, but were unable to go beyond that idea with the rest of their output.

I read him growing up, too, even his David Starr and Norby books, and he never really caught my attention. Gordon R. Dickson's Dorsai Saga is a much better version of the Foundation books, and for all of the love of the Three Laws of Robotics, they really just were devices for science fiction versions of locked room mysteries.
The only reason a self-built car won't be reliable is because you don't know what you are doing. The same goes for email. If you take the time to understand what you are doing it is perfectly fine.
Without reading this article, I would never, in a million years, have believed there was an actual human being manually operating any of these "chat popups". I probably still won't believe it, but now when I see these things I have to think there's a 99.9% chance it's a bot rather than 100% chance it's a bot.
I've done it a fair few times now. I've always tried to plan everything in advance, but I've learnt you will always run into unexpected problems, which you just have to solve as you are going along, rather than get frustrated that your plans went awry. Language is likely to be the biggest hurdle unless of course you are going somewhere where you already speak the lingo! One thing that still bugs me is where being one of very few white people I stand out like a sore thumb and everyone stares at me when I walk down the street. I'm also a lot taller than the average person here which makes things even worse!

One other thing - moving to another country, if it's much different from your home, will give you a new appreciation for things you took for granted in your homeland.

Of course, it all depends on how different the countries are - moving from UK to Denmark may be less of hurdle than moving from UK to Laos!

p.s. When I moved countries the only thing I took was a single carry on bag - a small rucksack. Be as minimalist as you can get away with!

p.p.s I have refined my packing list considerably, but I always pack at least two Hanes v-neck T-shirts. Very versatile item of clothing - incredibly comfortable and you can use them for sleeping, as an undershirt on colder climes, or for more general wear.

Also, metaprogramming is no longer exclusive to Lisp, other languages are adding advanced features all the time, so there's fewer reasons to move to Lisp.

Ha! I can't stand the Dorsai stuff; Asimov rules. He inspired a generation to harden their science, and make it pivotal to the science fiction story.

It takes all kinds.
>New programmers and developers look at that and compare it to something like Go, Python, or JavaScript, and all those look easier to write (although deceptively complex in places) and are 1000x easier to read.

Are you sure?

Reading a file in Go

func read(f) {

var text string
var scanner *bufio.Scanner
var err error

file, err := os.Open(f)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
scanner = bufio.NewScanner(file)
for scanner.Scan() {
text += scanner.Text()
}
err = scanner.Err()
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
fmt.Println(text)
}

in Common Lisp

(defun read (filename)
(with-open-file (input filename)
(loop for line = (read-line input nil)
while line do (print line))))

Now tell me which one is easier to read. And the lisp example you can understand what it does without even knowing any kind of Lisp language; it is almost english.
One thing to note is the presence of ground vehicles (e.g. "OPS7"). Using my RTL-SDR dongle, I can pick up trucks driving around LAX, 20 miles away, because the airport is creating synthetic ADS-B targets for them and broadcasting packets as though they were any other aircraft--with appropriate flags sent so you can tell 1. it's a ground vehicle, and 2. it's a synthetic target, not a direct response from an ADS-B transponder.

refactoring Java is pretty easy if you have a good IDE

Facebook was tracking users even if they didn't click the Like button. This has nothing to do with page view tracking.

And they were tracking even non-Facebook users this way. There's zero consent here no matter how you cut it.

Worse yet, Facebook did this for years, and in the first years it swore it doesn't do that, and when they were caught doing it they said it was "just a bug"...twice.

Facebook has 0% credibility at this point. Just look how they're ruining people's trust in 2FA security, too, now (although if they end-up ruining the trust in SMS 2FA, that wouldn't be too bad of an outcome actually...).

This is a good article (although not complete, and only until 2014) on Facebook's awful, no-good, history of lying and tracking users without their consent:

Unlike the Internet, when a break-and-mortar fails it's not easy for a competitor to break into the space and scoop up their market share. In theory in an efficient market, players that deserve to fail will be replaced and the market as a whole will remain and become stronger. In meatspace, where many things have friction, players that deserve to fail will bring the market down. I also wish it weren't the case, but it's not a market many players are actively trying to enter right now.
This isn't fair to researchers at companies. While the goal of the organization may be to make money, the goal of the individual researchers who publish the papers is very likely doing it for the greater good.
We do have plenty of 500 KV (all over Louisiana and Arkansas for example), but a good bit of 765 as well. It's very costly to get right-of-way and the bigger the installation the more right-of-way you need.
I did this with job applications when I was getting rejected using my real name and sex. I changed it from Joe to Joanna and re-applied. Every single company that turned me down originally called me back when they thought I was a female developer...so from my perspective, their shoes look pretty good...It was an interesting little experiment...turns out my experience was good, but my sex was wrong for the "desired" team makeup.

I think Bourbaki are partly to blame for this state of affairs. Vladimir Arnold had a lot to say on the subject: he was a big fan of keeping the intuition and motivation for development in the subject clear.

Maybe because they opted to scrap ID cards for stupid, vague reasons such as "reducing bureaucracy" and "civil liberties". Meanwhile, the de-facto method of ID is a driving license (which is useless for travel), or the national insurance number (similar to a social security number in the US) + other stupid forms of "ID" such as utility bills are used instead ubiquitously. The problem with the NIN (like the SSN) is that it is assigned once per person, cannot be changed, has severe consequences if stolen for identity theft reasons, and, oh yeah, it isn't identification because it has no picture, yet somehow every terrible company or bank needs it. Utility bills are even easier to fake or procure.

The farcical reason to scrap them comes from a government who's police force holds a large percentage of their population's faces - who are innocent - in a huge database and refuses to delete them. So yeah, it's dumb on all levels. Tease away at those muppets.

If you follow the guide in this post, you will have reliable email delivery without involving a possibly untrustworthy 3rd party. What part of it seemed overly time-consuming or difficult?

If you're worried about monitoring it for operation, make sure there is at least one automated email that passes in each direction once daily. Use pingdom free to check for basic up/down. That should suffice for a personal email system. Email senders will retry for days before giving up.

I say this as someone who has been hosting his own email on his own hardware on his own ISP connection (on OpenBSD no less!) for over a decade, and have never had a delivery issue
This is a pretty common learning technique, one that's been validated in cognitive psychology and cognitive neuroscience research, and one that in grad school (in a different field) I would teach to undergrads that were struggling in the classes I TA'ed. I only wished I had learned it as an undergrad.

For more conceptual learnings, I would instead write questions that capture the main ideas of some subsection or whatnot, then at the end of the chapter, close the book, answer the questions, and summarize the questions. Then go back and check the answers. It takes longer, but active recall helps memory encoding.
No. The definition of lynching is that it is without legal authority. What blacks were suffering from was the absence of the rule of law.

Now, true, the legal authorities were often complicit. But that's still the absence of the rule of law, not the presence of it.
> I knew because I could see them that they weren't inherently dangerous. Software doesn't have the same analogy in this space.

This has a lot more to do with manufacturers unethical approach to closed and obfuscated opaque software than any inherent problem or limitation of the field.

You were able to recognize the problems or lack thereof for your car because a) you could actually see it, and b) you have more than passing familiarity with how cars work. There's no reason both of those can't be true for the vehicle firmware as well.
How is this different than Google Analytics?

Both companies are tracking users and Google is doing this even more than Facebook.
End-to-end encryption like SSL (https) is meant to limit the middle man's ability to 'see everything'. Instead of seeing the details of your Google search, all they see is that you accessed Google at [x] time, and exchanged [y] amount of data.

This is why there is such a push for end to end encryption on web traffic, chat apps, etc.

Housing benefits would have to be eliminated to make UBI viable cost-wise -- and indeed that is one of the biggest reasons why UBI or negative income tax as a replacement to benefits is politically unpopular.

While UBI would be more efficient (everybody gets a minimum amount of money that they can use towards housing or whatever else), that would mean HUGE losses among the welfare recipients in expensive places -- in London, housing benefit (LHA) can amount to $18k a year for a small family or $30k a year for a big one, and UBI will not fully replace that. The laments about social cleansing will be loud.
Haha, I was joking but the substance is tar-like and won't come out easily (sat on a creosote bridge once). We have some plants in my area that make it as well...I'm kinda scared what the long term impacts will be healthwise as you can sure smell that chemical-tar-oil compound.
The essence of it is that because they are prey animals, good horsemanship is necessarily an exercise in leadership

That's something I hadn't thought of directly, but it's very true.

My wife is a horse trainer & riding instructor and one of the first things I see her teaching is being decisive and clear about what you want the animal to do. The parents of her younger students (mostly girls) often report that their kids become much more confident after taking lessons.

Horses are very finely attuned to body language and don't respond very well to someone who is timid and uncertain. The flip side of that is, of course, if (s)he really doesn't want to do something, come hell or high water, it ain't happening!

No one said unwashed CS nerds treat women any differently to other men. The point is that the distribution of genders is likely overwhelmingly male. Thus even if a small percentage of that male population exhibit sexist behaviour, the tiny proportation of females would get most of the abuse, and more abuse than the average male.

I'm not sure it really takes much time or effort to convey enough of the background: I still remember my high school math teacher telling the class, in passing, that Galois was killed in a duel at age 20.

30+ years later that remark is still having an effect in that when I took my kids to the top of the tour montparnasse I made them look down at the cemetery to point out that Galois is down there (somewhere).
