Well, the article calls for a v0, which seems to be exactly for the use case you describe? There are no import path changes, undergoing "rapid, breaking change" is allowed, and if you ever find a good local optimum you can graduate to v1 without any import path change either. I don't see any requirement to ever move to v1, although users may understandably prefer libraries that do. I don't quite understand what additional support you are looking for from "a good package manager".

I'm also not sure this makes it harder to ship a v2. Sure, users will have to change their import paths, although I'm sure tooling like GoLand can easily automate this. But this also frees library maintainers to do extensive API redesigns, without worrying about breaking everything or hanging their existing users out to dry. In particular, the ability to make v1 depend on (and become a wrapper for) v2 is quite nice. Not only does this pattern not break existing code, but it even allows users who have not yet migrated to the new API to benefit from the active development on the latest branch. And of course there is the potential for some degree of automated migration, through inlining wrapper functions as mentioned in the article.

This feels like a short footstep into bad science-policy outcome. I don't for a minute doubt the science side has good numbers for it's weighted outcome probabilities. I think its going to be widely mis-used, mis-quoted and mis-understood.

Language in this area of health is a poison pen. Intentionality (you chose to drink the coke, you own the diabetes) and de-empathising (you were born fat and poor, I don't have to help you) are the two stand outs I hear a lot from people I know in the USA who have personal struggles with health costs, and consequences and mostly have conquered them. Down here in a world of public health, the genetic exposure risk is pretty directly about aboriginal and islander communities who are drowning in fetal alcohol syndrome, early onset diabetes, other diseases. This kind of report should (I think) help, but I suspect is going to hinder as it becomes a giant baseball bat in the policy debate.

Just to briefly jump in:

statically compiling dependencies: roughly equivalent to "I want to link against a Go lib"? AFAIK the standard answers are "use cgo" (which has problems[1]) and "maybe plugins?"[2] but I don't know how plugins are working out.

static compilation solving transitive dependencies: only if you have no singletons. In that case, yes! But the outside world is a singleton - anything on disk, through network, etc, anything with external state now has to deal with all past and future versions of the code simultaneously. Possible, but difficult and/or wasteful. For pure code though, yeah, this is a great solution, and it's part of why npm's "use all the versions" works out for micro-libs so well - they tend to have their state injected, which allows you-the-user to control how versions interact (if at all). Unfortunately you're left with node_modules[3] (as you mentioned).

In my case it was a last minute decision before moving - "oh, are we packing that?" I think the Coinstar fee was less than 8-9% at the time and I'm not sure if they offered "fee-free" digital gift cards yet.
A professional I know in the field (who repudiates drugs for CBT, and so is probably biassed, but still...) says that the lack of clarity over how an antagonist and a suppressant can both be claimed to operate on the same underlying problem and have adherents, points to bad understanding of what actually causes the problem.

I work in Broomfield. Used to live in DC.

My company is nerd to the core in the right way. Hate the brogrammer crap.

We regularly host tournaments for obscure board games, people hack on crazy languages like Haskell and elm for fun, and add to that the company wide obsession with rock climbing.

I love it. But some of the shops I've seen sound like what you described.

I heard spotx is a bunch of brogrammers for instance.
Also quasi-government entities. Like a private town with public areas[0].

If all the "public" "digital town squares" are private, does Marsh v. Alabama apply? The only obvious answer is that that is for the Court to decide -- or Congress, via legislation. Related question: what is the best policy as to social media and censorship thereof by its owners: to regulate or not?

Wasn't it "hunter2"? The search turns up 16,092 hits so if I am mistaken I'm not the only one.
Why Twitter (or any social media, Reddt, FB, HN, Snap, etc) needs to be considered a source of truth or honestly is beyond me. It's no different than listening to a stranger in real life.
Regardless, it's also not worth censoring. Let me make my own mind up.
To those struggling with the terminology, this site helped me a bit. I wasn't familiar with Odds Ratios (OR). And I'm still confused, with a headache.

https://www.students4bestevidence.net/a-beginners-guide-to-i...

I would love to have someone explain this study in a simple way, with simple percentages.

For example, what is the efficacy of, say Prozac, compared to placebo?

"In terms of efficacy, all antidepressants were more effective than placebo, with ORs ranging between 2·13 (95% credible interval [CrI] 1·89–2·41) for amitriptyline and 1·37 (1·16–1·63) for reboxetine."

This says all antidepressants work between what percentage?

And in another post, someone mentioned the newer antidepressants were better that the older ones. What percentage better?

(And yes--I need to brush up on my statistics. I've taken a few of these drugs. I used to know how to read a simple study, and stopped because the results were so depressing. I am throughly confused with this study, and the charts. Then again, I'm not feeling great.)
> pretty widespread consensus on... where different viewpoints are not so valid and acceptable (murdering people that didn't commit any violent crimes)

I take your point, and I agree that it's worth separating debate over practicalities and small influences from debate over basic humanity. One allows for "but I still think you're well-intentioned" and the other doesn't, so only one can be sustainable within a community.

But... it's also worth remembering how far from universal even our consensus views are. I can think of a half-dozen contexts in the world today where people explicitly reject the proposition "it's wrong to murder people who haven't committed violent crimes". In many of those contexts, they're serious enough to actually go out and do that murder, and be judged favorably for doing so.

I don't disagree with you, I'm not going to knowingly invite those people over to dinner. I just think it's worth remembering how little of morality is certain across times and cultures.

During Some "Required Questions":

How do people like James Damore, including those who in some part feel and/or think like him, get past Google's vetting process? Obviously a number do. "Obviously" given companies want some semblance of culture-wide agreement; if not obviously, what id going on?
Different people have different tastes. I'm the type of person, who's even turned off autocorrect on my phone, because that already gets on my nerves when I type a word that it doesn't know and then it "corrects" it to a different word.

Also in particular annoying when I go back and forth between two languages. Then I have to switch language on my keyboard every other time I want to type anything. And I have to get used to the different layout, which with swiping seems to be even more annoying.
Ask HN: What Are the Best Data Science Tutorials for Developers
I am a developer for almost 10 years now and most of the Data Science Tutorials I came across always had some kind of tutorial about programming python.

Are there tutorials out there that skip the whole programming part and focus on the concepts behind data science?
it does sound crazy...for a different reason, what I don't really understand is why the big difference compared to other places isn't significant enough to do dev elsewhere? Maintain a smaller presence in SV? Or a lot more remote workers?

Or is the investment money so good that no one really cares?
I guess maybe I'm confusing what I'd call holidays with what people in other countries would call leave or vacation days. What I mean meant was mandated paid days off work, whether a holiday/public holiday/bank holiday or annual leave/vacation.

Workers in the UK are entitled to 28 paid days off work, the other countries you've listed have similar entitlements.

It turns out that I'm wrong either way, the USA is joined by Kiribati, the Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Nauru, Palau, and Tonga. So to be correct, literally every country apart from a handful of Pacific Island nations making up less than 1 million people and the USA entitle their workers to as least some paid leave from work.
As a fellow self-taught astronomer, I would have appreciated less of the 'story telling' and more of the details. None of my parents are much interested in astronomy, but I am. If all astronomers only had parents interested in astronomy, then astronomy would have died centuries ago.

I don't really care if his/her's dog's neighbor's boyfriend's aunt did XYZ that was tangentially related. Alas, that type of mush 'sells' page views.
Ok yes if you attend in-state then 20k (tuition, books) is doable for a good school.

But let's say 60k in debt though, saving 10% isn't even easy for most people especially if you're in an expensive area where most the jobs are. So you'd need 600k extra. Most people only save 2.2% of their income.

> In fact, the average graduation debt for those at public institutions was $25,550 not $200,000.

The average graduation debt probably includes payments made by parents. Yes if your education is being subsidized that will change the analysis. You can't really answer the question of whether college is a good idea unless you know if there are any subsidies for a person. Also your numbers are outdated. It's 38k in 2017.

I looked at your Brookings report but it's from 2011 and factors in an average 4 year degree at only 48k. If they update it to 2018 their 15% return would crumble.

Additionally, Brookings says "On average, 18 and 19 year olds right out of high school earn about $11,600 per year, while 20 and 21 year olds with a high school degree average about $15,400 per year".

Anyone that can get entry level in tech (as the parent suggested) will be multiples of that. If you can only obtain a 11-15k yr annual salary, then yes I agree college is a good investment (if you go in-state). But if you compare it to entry level tech as the parent suggests or an electrician or other trade rather than minimum wage fresh out of high school, no I don't think it's wise for most people unless someone is helping you pay for it (scholarship, parents, company, etc.). A 2 yr or cheap online degree is probably better for most people in my opinion.

I agree that poor lifestyle choices should be somehow disincentivized.

Leaving aside the fact that BMI isn't a great metric (as mentioned in another comment); we can probably come up with a better one.

80% of healthcare costs are driven by 15 conditions, which in turn are mostly affected by 8 behaviors [1]. I bet that the bulk of the cost is due to completely changeable lifestyle behaviors (diet, drinking, smoking, physical activity).

Alcohol and tobacco should be more heavily taxed (fast-food is trickier, as we need to make sure that there's healthy, equally-accessible food options out there). Education around healthy lifestyle choices should be more available, as well as gym memberships/fitness equipment/trainers. Sure they do cost money, but we're already paying so much through non-preventive healthcare.

Any other ideas how to disincentivized unhealthy lifestyle choices?

I think that the United States is getting better about dealing with mental health, but we still have a long way to go. This is a little soap-boxy and anecdotal, and I apologize if it's inappropriate here.

If I hadn't gotten a prescription for Prozac I probably would have killed myself by now. And I definitely would have destroyed my marriage and most of my important friendships. That's not an over-dramatization, it's the honest truth just based on the direction my life was heading without them.

If you can't make your own neurotransmitters, store bought are fine. I'm not writing this to say "RARGH YOU MUST USE THESE DRUGS", but I absolutely am writing it to say "hey, this worked for me and got me out of a really dark and bad place". If you are reading this from a dark and bad place, please know that you're not alone. You have a lot of options, and I promise that if you take that first step, things can get better.
Quantum Computing Introduction
The former :D

As elaborated below that comment, State isn't actually mutating anything, it's just hiding away the boiler plate of threading an extra parameter through your functions.

ST, on the other hand, is compiler magic akin to transients in Clojure - STRefs actually get mutated, below a pure context. But type magic ensures that STRefs can't persist across multiple "runs" of the ST value, so it still behaves like pure code. So it's actually a little less scary than Clojure's transients, although you're more likely to encounter the word "skolem".
There is a lot of buzz about Quantum Computing and Microsoft has officially announced Quantum Development Kit and Q#, the language for Quantum computing. In this article we will try to understand what exactly is quantum computing and how it will affect us.
Clever Way to “demethodize” Native JavaScript Methods
Bloom filters are popular mostly because they’re clever, but they can also be useful.

E.g. Google Chrome’s safe browsing feature used Bloom filters to check whether a site might be flagged for malware, and if necessary query Google to check if it is actually flagged. It would have been impractical to download the full safe browsing dataset to every client, and also impractical to query Google for every single site visited. Bloom filters were a good solution (note: they’ve since moved to a custom data structure[1] which is also interesting.)

I would hope that exceptional individuals would work wherever they choose. In most cases the folks who stick with non-profits like that they're working for a non-profit, even though the financial rewards are smaller than industry.
Good questions. To address hotlinking we'll be encouraging people to use signed URLs. They're a little more complicated to work with but can protect from situations like you're describing. We also have a mechanism called Playback IDs, which allows you to kill a URL to a video (and create a new one) without deleting the video itself. Account limits are less ideal, but may need to be a reality. Mux is a utility service similar to AWS and Google Cloud, where you'll also have this issue, and we'll work with users to find the best approach.

Re: transcoding, this is something we've wrestled with a bit. If you only use us for transcoding then you lose half the value of the system we've built: the dynamic renditions based on real usage, real time CDN optimization, automatic new codec and device support at no extra cost. So we've tried to create the simplest pricing for people who want all of that, not just transcoding. At the same time, we do want to support real video publishing use cases that start to look more like just transcoding (videos with a short life span and few views). Hopefully we can find more real cases like that to help us think through that more.
It's pretty weird that 25 years into the internet age we have students paying through the nose to attend university and universities paying through the nose to subscribe to publications.

Extremely useful for anyone doing real-time analytics or filtering. Answering "has this person visited this page before" or "how many distinct people have visited this page/website" can be done exactly with map-reduce or streaming pipelines, but if you want an immediate answer with low latency and can tolerate false negatives/bounded inaccuracy, you can simply keep a Bloom filter or HyperLogLog in memory. For example, see the top comment here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12124722
Math makes aging inevitable, because every moment that passes increments the amount of total time we’ve been in existence.
I live in Colorado.

I've lived all over as well. The Denver metro is about as friendly as Austin metro in my opinion. Texas as a whole is friendly because it's the south, but that pertains to non urban areas.

I do find people in the West to be poorly mannered but not unfriendly. Frankly, growing up in the South, people in other places have bad manners in general to me.

I think it's important to know that companies have different cultures, and your experience of Austin or Denver can be heavily affected by that.
Either words have meaning or they don't. If they don't, Social Media, newspapers, podcasts, and everything else could just shut down. If they do, If they do, it's important that we at least have the sort of context clues about the source of information and their reliability that we have in real life.
Yeah. This is the primary concern I had about this tax cut. I don’t mind deficits in general, but I’m not a fan of creating them for no reason.

There are a few bathrooms in heavily touristed areas of the city, but that's far from most of the city. The guarded bathrooms are essentially for drunk people and tourists. Homeless people are pretty much screwed.
Yeah, Android is so broken when it comes to third-party keyboards. Gives you a big bloody warning that this keyboard could steal your passwords and whatnot (with which it is absolutely right), but then doesn't even offer you the obvious solution - blocking internet access for the keyboard app.
Can you expand on "you know, the "official experiment" that suddenly got discarded to the surprise of its developers" and where that announcement was made?
What we've seen isn't users showing how they feel about federated systems, it's users being forced into walled gardens as closed systems added support for open systems, but open systems could not reciprocate, and the market adjusted.

If your choice as a user is to buy an iPhone that can communicate with your Apple friends over imessage and Android friends over hangouts, or buy an android phone and not access anyone through imessage, there's an advantage to Apple there. Google just decided to level the playing field (if slightly) by privatizing the hangouts protocol, and we all lost out a bit because of it.

Federation isn't something most people even experienced throughout all that, so it's hard to think it was factored in, even a few times removed, from their decision.
Because:

1) In an online attack, against a properly-configured service, even if password spraying is used, only the first few thousand passwords can be tried before rate-limiting, CAPTCHAs, etc. kick in.

Would a user with a known leaked password at a different site be vulnerable to an online correlation attack? Yes. And that's why some big services supplement their approach by proactively searching for those leaks and forcing a password reset for those specific users.

2) In an offline attack, when the passwords are properly hashed with a modern slow hash, even an expensive GPU or FPGA cluster would take weeks to exhaust a 10,000 word dictionary against a large user corpus, and a significant amount of time even when a single user is targeted.

Would users with '123456' get cracked pretty quickly? Yes. And that's why the top X are forbidden - to make offline attackers have to dig deeper into their wordlists (and thereby also their pocketbooks) to crack a password in a useful amount of time.
