In the hidden variables case (yours), it was predetermined which marble was in the bag before you opened it. In the retrocausal case, the information about which marble is in the bag simply isn't part of reality until you've checked. With macroscopic objects like bags and marbles, this is ridiculous, because someone had to put the marble in the bag (a "shared cause"). However, Bell's Theorem shows that entanglement isn't a sufficient "shared cause" to explain his experiment. Thus, we either need superdeterminism (the "shared cause" is the origin of the universe!), spooky action at a distance, or retrocausality.
Why I even care? I am continually being impressed by VSCode's and on digging deeper I found it's a product by a company called Microsoft.

So, I figured out that they also have a language called C# and dotnet core platform.

Now I am left wondering whether, it's something as impressive as VSCode or not.
Kind of agree with you. Don't even think living in Manhattan if you don't pull at least 150k$. (Or be ready for some of those roomshare situations).

I'm also amazed by the average night price at Manhattan hotels. Even during normal weeks, the cheapest is well above 300$/night.

The problem is that Bell's theorem (which is supported by all of our experimental data so far, afaik) states that "No physical theory of local hidden variables can ever reproduce all of the predictions of quantum mechanics."

Basically, hidden variables models can't explain the results of some of our experiments and no-one's found a way to make the two match up.

I'm currently using a home-baked graph database built on top of PostgreSQL for https://unlikekinds.com

It stores information as triples (Bob -> Married to -> Gary) and with properties (Bob.last_name = Stamper)

I've been finding that the benefits keep on paying off. I can arbitrary relate any thing to any other thing (and query those relationships) without changing code or database schema at all.

And the fact that it's a literal, intuitive, representation of reality makes things much easier to reason about.

Ask HN: Functional Devs, how would you solve this more efficiently?(JS+Ramda)
Hi guys, first of all I just want to let you know that I'm a functional programming learner, and I'd love to see how more experienced people approach this problem. I have to process a list of email events (email was sent, email was bounced, email was a soft bounce or email was reported), aggregate them by an email campaign ID and update the corresponding counters. The solution I came up with and the test it must satisfy can be seen in this gist https://gist.github.com/davidgf/c03baedee14a758c406a58de99ea277a, but I'm not really satisfied, because it feels that I'm iterating over the entire list too many times. Given that I come from an imperative style background, I can figure out a much uglier but also much more efficient solution for this, but I wanted to see some FPer's take on this.
Simple and elegant.

There is something awfully wrong if processing 5000 files and cached dependendencies takes 10s. It should take a few ms at most, even if written in a scripting language like Python. I would not be surprised if this is because that build system heavily misuses GNU Make's variable substitution features, instead of being written in a language that features proper data structures (e.g. set, map)

Of course voting is a right nd helping to get political candidates is a right. But when you exercise your rights in a way that implicates other peoples’ self interest, it is proper for them to push back in a way that would not be appropriate if someone simply expresses a viewpoint.

If I own an apartment building, I have every right to kick out all the tentants and sell the building. The law shouldn’t stop me from doing that. But I can’t complain if people try to stop me, bring bad publicity against me, etc. They’re entitled to do that in a way they wouldn’t be if I simply expressed pro-landlord views.

What is HNs impression of the etiquette of "demanding" citations? I agree with nmca that it's the author's onus to research prior work as widely as possible, but if something is missed, presumably both by the authors and the reviewers, and therefore clearly was not actually a reference for the work in question, is the author really at fault? Is it "ok" to demand a citation like this?

Nobody does, sadly.

The simplification for calculating the power of an alternating current by just using the maximal values and a correction factor is only valid if the signal is alternating in a periodic fashion, which includes constant period. However, the reasons this thread exists is that the electricity power signal does not have a constant period, and is therefore not strictly periodic. Then, the simplification for the integral does not hold anymore, and the integral must be evaluated with some other technique.
Also some feedback from me:

1)It tells me what it does and how it works. But what I want to know in the first place is why. Why would I need it?

2)https://imgur.com/a/kuZC3 here I would switch the order from left down and then right down, because the smart phone in the middle spaces this like a book, so I initially read the left side first, then the right side (1/3/2/4). Only then I realised the actual order.

If you're talking about B2B it's not just subscriptions - any continuous relationship can be a good fit for direct debits. For example many breweries in Ireland will sign up their clients (i.e. pubs and off-licenses) via direct debit. Then if they make a delivery the payment collection will be automated at the end of the month.

In this situation direct debit gives the vendor the comfort of delivering goods without payment, and it gives the customer the flexibility of ordering without having to go through a purchasing process.

Not necessarily, but the the chance of any crazy coincidence happening and reaching HN homepage is quite big. Next time it might be two people with same name writing the exact same tweet independently. Or perhaps one guy winning the World Series of Poker two times in a row with the same winning hand.

When there's a million "kinds" of crazy coincidences, the chance of any one of them happening is much higher than chance of a specific one happening. This is kind of a selection bias, we only hear about the coincidences that happened.
JavaScript that drops a RAT – Reverse Engineer it like a pro
Yes, but it's an interesting question to ponder. The last decade or two government and Military procurement has been leaning more heavily towards COTS (commercial off-the-shelf ) hardware and software. The thought was it's cheaper and possibly more reliable than the bespoke solutions that vendors were delivering in the past. Now we see that it isn't a guarantee of anything. Though still probably cheaper, at least initially.

Something like this probably will happen with computer assisted surgery or medical procedures, or an aircraft in flight. Just a matter of time.

You can easily live in Manhattan for less than that, but expect half your salary going to rent, since you're also putting your car money into it.
Same here.

Of course, there is real and perceived performance. I noticed that VSC shows a screen first, then starts filling it in with content, then syntax highlighting and other features. I captured it in a GIF and reduced the speed to make it really visible:

https://imgur.com/V9MZRM1

I don't recall if it always did that. If not, then it probably appears to be faster because spends less time being "frozen".

If the absolute start-up time really improved by more than 5%, then perhaps the particular slowdowns fixed here were also bottlenecks for starting up installed extensions? If the VSC team benchmarked the performance on a clean installation (which would make sense, since they're not responsible for other people's extensions), then they would have missed the knock-on effects of code (not) waiting for other code.

I also wonder if the reduced file count makes an impact. What system are you on? I'm stuck with Windows 10 for the moment, and I have a vague recollection that Windows is less happy with tons of small files than Linux. If the devs who implemented this were on Linux machines and benchmarked on that, they might not have noticed this boost.

Anyway, I'm sure there are tons of other possible reasons. In the end what matters is that it's better, no? :)

Same. I'm down to one closed-source software package installed on my machine, zero in regular use. Adding to that number is a net negative. I'd be happy to pay to use it, but not having control over it is just not an option anymore.

Well, if you're stuck on Windows like me, you save more than that second due to not having to search for and open a separate terminal emulator (which probably also takes some time). I'm sure the story is different on Linux with a good tiling window manager though.

GraphHopper 0.10 released
How Masazumi Imai Designed the X-Series Cameras for Fujifilm
Yeah, but the problem is that once they freeze an account, one of two things happens:

1) They only suspend withdrawals, which means payments continue to go in and all of that money is also held unless and until PayPal releases it.

Or

2) They suspend both incoming payments and withdrawals. In this case, you’re back at square one, plus you’ve wasted the PayPal implementation time, plus they are withholding whatever funds you had when they arbitrarily decided to suspend the account. If your customers have recurring payments setup when this happens (as is the case with most SaaS companies), you’ve lost all of those customers, likely for good, because you have to contact them, explain that your PayPal account was shutdown, and then try to get them to give you a credit card directly.

Further, until you realize that they have suspended incoming payments and disable PayPal on your site, customers trying to pay you receive an error message from PayPal, and you’ve likely lost each and every one of those customers for good as well - regardless of the payment methods you offer.

So again, PayPal and many of its customers are nightmares.
I do feel sorry for the guy. I really do. But how is it possible that one guy's tragedy got to the front page of HN? Why everyone's talking about his wife, but not about others, who probably left family and friends in grief the same way.

Low-level debugging on modern laptops
You mean the one build system that doesn't know the first thing about header files? The one build system that fails to detect that a header file changed and thus a certain set of source files must now be rebuilt?

If there's a case for an existing build system here, the system in question is not make. There are much better systems out there (scons, cmake...). Just my two cents.
I want to point out that expensive rent in a rural area is different than expensive rent in an urban one. In a rural area, if it really comes down to it, people buy or rent a plot of land and throw a prefab home or trailer on it. In an urban area, you don't have a lot of options when rent goes up other than moving to a dangerous neighborhood or commuting from an inhumane distance.
Since life or evolution is basically self-replication with variation in a shared environment, any mechanism that can carry information forwards can and probably will be used, or has been in the past. From that perspective, some phenotype changes are trivially genotype changes. (Eg anything that changes the egg-cell, will influence the life that grows from it.)

It is weird to expect only DNA to be used. The process is not that orderly. The special thing about DNA (and a few other mechanisms), it is invariant to phenotype changes. And that it will copy over information that has no direct influences on self-replication. That is what enabled unlimited heredity.
Now that this is in open , is emirates site safe to use ?
>This is especially true in a CI-setting, where this is one of those areas where signing and timestamping essentially makes a reliably and deterministic process (compiling code) into a unreliable and non-deterministic process, because builds can now fail randomly based on the state of a online timestamping service.

Why are you signing your drivers during development? If not, how is the "unreliability" of timestamping services an issue? You probably can't push your stuff to prod without timestamps anyway.

>With a custom build system, the best case scenario is you have to re-learn all these options for each project.

The best case scenario would be that it handles all of those scenarios in A) a highly readable way and B) has high quality documentation that demonstrates the use of all the necessary features in context.

Make's approach appears to be to use cryptic flags and settings and the best case documentation appears to be "have you tried stack overflow?". It is not the be all and end all of build systems.

Additionally, for many of the non-C++ workflows I want to accommodate, the 'make' approach appears to be hack around its deficiencies with bash scripting. Stringing together hacky bash scripts is not what I would describe as a best case scenario in any project.

I don't think of this guy's project is a meaningful competitor to make/cmake but equally, I can envisage other projects doing a better job than make on its home turf.
This kind of reminds me of something I thought of a while ago when playing around with cellular automata in Golly;

With many cellular automata rules, you get chaotic universes, which slowly stabilize into some final state. Frequently there are small active regions which take longer to stabilize, and which may travel across the entire state before they eventually do.

So could our 4-dimensional universe be the final stable state in a 5-dimensional cellular automaton (or some similar structure)? This would allow every part of the universe to influence every other part without regard for space/time separation, but the rules could still be set up such that the particles in the final state adhere to causality, don't exceed the speed of light, etc...

I think it might only work if the final state represents a fully collapsed universe without superpositions. I'm not sure how realistic that is.
Germany's system is far from permissive. In residential zones there are very few commercial activities allowed at all (like doctor practices). However we have pretty many mixed zones where certain low touch commercial activities are allowed, such as small markets, bakeries and such, but no industrial activity which is restricted to separate zones where (almost, with the exception for owners) no housing is allowed.

"As SSC put it, you have to think about whether people with different moral aims than you are just not clever enough to see you're right, or know they're wrong but hope to profit (mistake vs. conflict)."

Regarding "dumb v. evil", I've lately encountered this distinction:

"dumb people don't use moral concepts to get their way. They just sort of use brute force, bullying, you know they'll call names. But the smart people are the people, who use moral concepts in the service of evil. "

It's very easy to explain and there are many examples of bad Makefiles on the internet. Magic variables, unintelligible string replacement routines, unportable extensions.
