The government will make Bitcoin the same way illegal as US dollars.

Then they can't easily control Bitcoin.

Then they will increase prison sentences for owning Bitcoins and Bitcoin apps.

Then they will not be able to control that.

Then they will monitor the internet for bitcoin transfers.

Then they will outlaw any encryption.

Then they will send out undercover police who try to pay with Bitcoin.

etc.

No government well let anyone take away their privilege to print money.
I'm on mobile right now, so not able to test it, but if you start with selected text, does it fill the buffer with it? If not, perhaps this feature could be added? It would be helpful for quickly dropping into to vim for advanced editing.
They cover it in the article. This is not about global warming; it’s about smog. Which leads to lung cancer etc. The relation of dying from lung cancer to dying from drowning by rising sea levels is merely incidental.
I've found soap to be largely unnecessary unless I have greasy stains on the skin, but going without shampoo didn't work. When I was flat broke in college I had to go for a month without shampoo and my hair never achieved any state beyond plastered to my head with grease. It was not a viable situation.

Perhaps if I had adopted dreadlocks it might have worked, but as a nerdy white guy in the computer lab dreads felt out of place.
> You won't need deodorants or perfumes.

This is bad advice. You will have BO if you don't use deodorant. There are no natural tricks to solve this.
Maybe try using the spray manufactured by AOBiome :)

That specific bikes-vs-cars example is actually pretty good, IMO. When I was in graduate school I spent all day in a classroom or in front of a computer, but I was still in good physical shape because I biked to and from the campus each day. I would have had to go into debt to buy a car.

My officemate and fellow grad student had car payments and paid for a gym membership to offset his similarly sedentary day. I used to laugh at that. I laugh a little less now, knowing how much risk cyclists are exposed to from cars, but that problem itself is a symptom of American cities that are built in an excessively car-dependent, car-first way.
Lab-Grown Meat Is Coming, Whether You Like It or Not
Have they fixed already the GOPATH crap?
Here is my experience.

I work for a company that syndicates location data for businesses. We had a couple of businesses that wanted to syndicate to OSM.

It. Was. A. Nightmare.

We have addresses for every store. We don't know where the building is. Any store we place is going to be easy to place on a street near the building. If you've not placed it inside of the strip mall on the right spot, other people delete it. And what do you do with NYC? Suppose that you have a store that is somewhere on the second floor of a skyscraper. We don't know where it is in that building.

Have you tried to map out thousands of department stores? We know hours, phone numbers, and addresses for each department. We have NO idea what the actual store layout is. Without the layout, OSM basically didn't seem to want the rest of what we can give them.

If a customer is willing to pay us to deal with OSM, we're going to discourage them and ask for top dollar if they insist. It is that painful.
Probably good source data with explanation of chain of custody that reasonably ensures those aren't fake. I.e. if they produce code and logs and other artifacts that definitely link something to Russia, I'd probably believe they didn't fake the logs, binaries, screenshots, etc. if reputable enough people vouch for it. Also, faking real data is very hard, so if after reasonable time of public inspection nobody calls it fake, I'd believe they are genuine. Then explanation how these source data demonstrate what is being proved (e.g. "this IP has accessed the remote backdoor on this server, and it's routing points to the IP being in Russia and registered to the provider known from this and this to be a company engaging in cybercrime on behalf of Russian government") that would be pretty convincing for me.

Pretty much the same process evidence undergoes on criminal trial. You present it, you get it through adversarial process, if it survives, we have some reasonable (though not 100%, as well known) chance it's true.

Of course, a prosecutor saying "well, we've seen the evidence and we conclude the defendant is guilty" would not fly very well in court. But that's mostly what we have here.
Yeah, Fire Season was not a season I grew up with. But it's a season California has.
Absolutely agree. Traffic in Seattle is some of the absolute worst in the country. 25% of workers drive to work only because there isn't even enough room on the road to fit more of them. Getting around Seattle is a massive pain in the ass and public transit just isn't keeping up.
Yeah, we could use a lot better coverage in a lot of neighborhoods. Hopefully expansion of the light rail and bus lines that work with it will help, but I don't think it can ever ideally serve everyone – which is why we need to make sure we still adequately serve cyclists and drivers to pick up those who can't be reached.

But hopefully we can expand transit to where most people choose it over cars.
We have such a strange culture of guns in this country.

This point became poignantly clear to me once when I was a potential juror on a gun-murder case. I remember they were screening the potential jurors for biases and they asked the large group of us:

"How many of you personally own a gun"

I looked around the room and and figured out of the 30 or so people maybe 5 would raise their hand.

It was more like 25.

It was on that day that America's gun obsession became real, quantifiable for me. Here was a cross section of my community, and I was a significant minority when it came to firepower. Almost everyone in that group, young and old, black and white, you name it, had a gun. People I was sure wouldn't raise their hand, raised their hands.
I agree, I meant to say that the "dirty" drug is more effective. If we just isolate one mechanism of action (like NMDA receptor antagonism) and make a specific drug for that, you lose all the other off target effects that could be beneficial
Oh, I see. Hello there! I never knew the founder of OSM was on HN too :)
> They're still unaware of the license of the work at this point

No, they actually link to the original work, which if you follow, it's licence is pretty clear. Not reading the article the first time is fine (and common), but repeatedly insisting that people who have are in the wrong is kind of inexcusable.
Anecdotally, what I've seen is that older programmers, in addition to being programmers, also have the skills of a computer helpdesk technician. They can debug Windows problems, hardware problems, know how to mess with the BIOS, and have no problem installing or configuring any piece of software. This helps immensely when setting up your IDE or debugging weird problems with compiling.

Younger programmers seem to commonly have zero knowledge in this area. If they run into some problem with their environment, they are completely stuck. Oh, they're asked to install a VPN client but it doesn't work and they have to debug it? They're completely blocked. They have no idea how to continue.

For me, I learned these basic computer skills first (because I was obsessed with computers as a child). Then I learned to program.

I think this is a side effect of teaching programming as a career skill. You have people that want to be programmers but don't include "computing" as one of their hobbies. So of course they don't know anything about how to debug computer problems. This is totally expected.

Teaching these skills in CS curriculum would probably be a good idea.
This isn't any different from what happens to pronunciation in English. The difference between English and Indic languages is simply that this has happened a lot more with English (also English kinda gets its words from all over the place)

Pronunciation changes over time. Things which may have been highly phonetic may lose this property over time.

There are many that likely work. The use of lemon juice has been around a long time, at least since the 1800s. It's just been forgotten about, as nobody makes any money selling lemon juice as a deodorant.

It's not toxic, and simple to test on yourself, and you've probably already got a bottle of lemon juice in the refrigerator.
> Your codepen has no completed todo count. Why are the recomputations logged every time here?

Because you can't apply reduce any other way. It's a computation defined over a whole collection. To incrementalize it, you'd need to be able to invert whatever function you're trying to apply in order to arbitrarily undo and redo the operation as elements are added/removed. This is literally impossible in general as not all functions have inverses.

You should also use the SArray methods directly rather than embedding within S(): https://codepen.io/anon/pen/NyXqjB

Edit: you can see a semi-incremental version exploiting map's semantics here: https://codepen.io/anon/pen/KQZddK

If you look at the docs for SArray, you see they describe that map avoids recomputation.

> What about the poorly named "S.freeze"

What would you call it? S.atomic? I don't see how the existing name is particularly unsuitable.
I had these in my Canadian school 20 years ago.
The go test command now caches test results: if the test
executable and command line match a previous run and the
files and environment variables consulted by that run
have not changed either, go test will print the previous
test output, replacing the elapsed time with the string
“(cached).”

This is my favorite part of the release.
You may well be right that it's too little too late. But the choice is between "we've changed", or "We've helped this happen for the past thirty years, and now we're gonna triple down, baby".
It's not clear what you mean "just deliberate practice".

He was imitating a style he liked, trying to acquire to ability to write like that. Using the method in programming seems different, in that it's not the particular writer's unique style you're trying to acquire, but other things.
I couldn't agree more with this. I think it's the OP that hasn't taken a close enough look at the B&N employee's "situation" and just spouted off an opinion.
I did that approach, too... up until my real analysis class. Then we'd have something like 50 theorems [edit: per test], and I couldn't remember them all. But I noticed that two or three theorems were used to prove the other 47, and so I memorized those. They gave me enough to survive the tests.
This is actually quite good advice. If you're close enough, you're dead regardless, but even miles away from an impact you still need to protect yourself against things like flying glass and falling debris.

Kind of like the Israeli standard warning to get into a concrete stairwell if you hear a missile alarm and don't have a real bomb shelter available. In a direct hit you're dead anyway, but mild defensive measures can vastly reduce the lethal radius of an attack.

EDIT: Here's a vintage poster on the subject. Fairly factually correct, but awful for morale: https://i.redd.it/fw2xx579qw401.jpg
Specifically volatile organic compounds, because cars don't emit very much of that particular type of pollution anymore. If you look at overall emissions across all types of air pollution, cars are still much worse.

> Probably right: OSM needs layers, or even a more sweeping re-architecture to allow better versioning, moderation, better tooling, and easier understanding of the data.

I have a hobby site about railways [0] I'm picking up again after a decade of inactivity. I wanted to display a route map of each railway, with clickable stations and the route highlighted.

I can not work out how to do that. OSM has the route and station data (there and in Open Railway Map [1]). I expected to find a layer called 'Railways' with sub-layers, one for each railway, and I could export the data and highlight it on another map.

Instead I have raster tiles, and no way to highlight the railway I'm talking about. I know the data must be there somewhere but how on earth do I get it?

I guess so. It seems strange to me that anyone would want to inflict upon themselves the pain of using different environments for development vs. production, though.

Seconded.

I tried exactly this when I was working from home for a while. The hair worked out wonderfully - better than any product I’ve ever used.

But the BO? It... well, my wife called it a manly musk. She gave it a doubleplus good at home, but i was not allowed to leave the house like that. Even I could smell myself.

I tried adding some probiotic body lotion into the mix, but it didn’t help at all.

I just spent several minutes of my life trying to figure out what a DRI is, and I still don't know.

I agree with you in regards to the OSMF. There has been a lack of motivation and a lack of desire to experiment.

> From a technical point of view we merged sysadmin (who inherently want stability) with development (who inherently want change)

Agreed, operations and development are often at odds. I've done both, and there are organizational ways to solve this, but they require a great deal of work.

> It's still a wonderful project

I completely agree. A prominent OSMer just sent me a message saying how he never wants to hear from me again, but this is not me writing against OSM, but rather me getting down and dirty into exactly where I think OSM doesn't do a good job.

I can love something (especially software) and advocate for it to change.

Steve, you and I don't always agree, but I think we both agree that we want the project to succeed and are frustrated by the current situation.

> I think what really happens is that projects go through a lifecycle and something new comes along to replace them, rather than anything getting fixed.

I'd hate for this to be the case, but it seems that if the project can't move forward, this is what will happen.

It would be possible to start by stiching together data from existing libre data sources, and then using tools to augment them. I'm not a computer vision expert, but I bet much of what we (you and I and many of our bretheren) were doing tracing roads and buildings could be done better by computer.

BTW, if you're Liking my post- like the parent post, since Steve is the primary founder of OSM. I mention him in the post.
Voiding the warranty is perfectly fine. I don't think it's the burden of Deere to support aftermarket modifications.

The current situation however is more like the tractor bricking itself and never working again if you attempt to open the oil reservoir yourself, without the per-requisite authenticated repairman keys
I bike half an hour in the summer in this hot and muggy area and as long as you remember to rinse your pits and change out of your sweaty clothes when you arrive you won't be stinky. It's something I worried about when I started biking, but it really hasn't been an issue at all.

The stinky part comes from those sopping wet clothes you changed out of and had to hang up somewhere. Hopefully not in your office.
Why are you assuming that someone with the title "CIO" has a tech background?

I worked at a place where the CIO was a lawyer who knew the business really well, but no real tech in his background.
I'm not sure you can attribute HOV lanes on an interstate to the city of Seattle. Most of the I-90 bridge is not even in the city limits. In this case maybe you mean "Seattle" as in "Seattle Metro area" which would be fair. ST + Seattle Metro transit seem to be doing a good job considering the realities of transit around here.
Yes. Approval of an insane number of construction sites in downtown core has lead to absolute gridlock, the removal of lanes on arterial roads for wider bike lanes, and the 405 toll lane are the first which come to mind.
> For the portions of computing that do not happen on the NES, I've got a raspberry pi housed in a Makerbot Replicator2 3D printed case.

Shenanigans.
To me, this is just evidence to expand public transit even more. There's only so much road space, and as the population grows we need to more efficiently utilize it – busses and rail are some of the most efficient ways. While we always need to support some car use cases, public transit is really the long-term solution to traffic.
Cool! Thanks for clarifying :)
Why? I use vi/vim for its ubiquity. Isn't it nice knowing you can show up at practically any terminal and have it at your disposal?
Why is that? (I know nothing about it, just would love to hear why you say that)
Gun violence frequently kills a small number of people.

USA/USSR nuclear war is an extremely rare event (to the point where it never actually happened; but any reasonable reading of history recognizes that it could have happened), that kills a large number of people. Lets estimate between 70 and 160 million immediate deaths in the US. [0]. This would be between 35 and 80% of the population. Lets round this estimate to a flat 100 million.

In 2013, there was about 100,000 firearm injuries (~34,000 of which were fatal. and 21,000 were suicide) [1]

These two number are not directly comparable, because of population growth, and my considering non-fatal gun injuries but only immediately fatal nuclear injuries. However, both of these facts serve to make gun violence look relatively worse than nuclear violence.

Even with these simplifications, our gun violence is equivalent to a nuclear war every 100 years. Readings of history may vary, but I doubt we could survive 100 years of cold war without starting a nuclear war.

For simplicity, lets ignore population growth and just focus on the absolute numbers (which will make shootings look even worse, because the total population has increased).

That really doesnt make sense. I cannot imagine a single situation a clear backpack could stop or even reduce.
But GDPR says even if data us anonymized but can be tied to a natural person in “reasonable” manner it is still illegal. then it gives some vage examples of what might be considered reasonable... so a lawyer could still make a case that tracking data is illegal.

you also have to explain to your user in clear and plain language using visualization where possible on how data collected is processed.
This is presenting a wildly rosy view of the past.

In Commodore 64 days you got some book that was all you had. You couldn't email the author of the book or look online.

If you got through the huge filter of the initial steps being much harder than today then you were doing well and would go on.

However, the endless set ups and downloading every library that is used is going to make maintenance of programs in 5, 10 or 20 years a nightmare.
Don't think so, those trolls are working on Brexit, Germany, Ukraine and other areas as well.
Psst, Seattle also has a reliable, free, and open source pair of apps for knowing where you bus is and when it’ll arrive. These apps are built and maintained entirely by volunteers. (In the case of iOS, this is basically just me.)

As far as Peterson goes, I've heard him point out the trend of young males paying attention to him and the potential link to feelings of dissolution/meaninglessness/lack of purpose. He seems to think these sets of hypothesis are on the right track.

Video games seem very similar to drugs in this regard. I've not seen evidence of video games being causal in any way, any more than drugs. I think it's more accurate to describe them as potential negative amplifiers; they're very easy to abuse because of how well they satiate the aforementioned feelings many people (notably young men) experience.
This is more or less how OSM works now, except there is no waiting period. But undoing a recent edit is pretty straightforward, so there is a similar effect.
Yeah we lack a lot of last mile coverage. I'm hoping that with light rail expansion we keep the same number of buses but move then to more last-mile service to help people get to light rail stations.

> There is obviously outdated/sub-standard data, but automated fixes are forbidden.

Please consider arms race encouraging automated edits would begin. A lot of people have a lot of awfully different views about how map data should be recorded (you thought source code formatting was contentious?)

> I couldn't expose an Add/Edit/Fix functionality for my users.

Lots of tools have managed this.

> if I wanted to let my users upload a photo of a venue, there was no service to store it

No. That's not what OpenStreetMap is. They aren't there to give out free image storage.

> The API returns only nodes entirely within an area

Yes, it's meant to be a low-level API which makes few assumptions about the meaning of any of the data. For the ability to make more complex queries you could have looked at Overpass. And possibly there is a space for a third party service to provide an API with such an ability. Again, I don't see that as OSM's business - OSM here should be considered more like the UN.

> There was free building data available for areas I was interested in, but I was told to copy them by hand.

And yet NYC have managed somehow to get most city building data into OSM, so perhaps you haven't investigated every possible option for getting what you want here...?
Some context to the statement would be great.
