At a superficial level you would appear to be successful, as anyone who doesn't know you just sees the house and the car. As soon as anyone heard that you spend all your money on yourself and let your family eat scraps, I think most people would hate you. So the question is, do you care more about what some random stranger thinks about you or what people who actually know you think about you?
> Who's judging you? Some people might, but what do you care?

Women do and I care because I like sex. When you have a luxury downtown apartment with a view and a sports car, it's playing the game on easy mode.

Pretty sure the idea is done; Art's working on other things at the moment.
Extremely common is a bit of an understatement ... it's practically enforced... to the point that women from the UK are kidnapped and forced to marry cousins and uncles back 'home'.

Due to cultural sensitivities, the authorities often turn a blind eye on the widely prevalent practice.
Is that Docker image capable of utilizing a GPU?
Most of the worthwhile discussion happens on email lists and old clunky forums. There used to be subreddits that were decent, but that time has passed.
The issue there is probably with the practice being common and repeated through many generations. The risk of generic abnormalities is not particularly high for cousin marriage.
I disagree - it's not at all clear. Most people reading the statement would assume that the book they were trying to access was among the 'certain items' blocked by the court.
The problem going forward is that the Trump administration is busy reversing all the Obama policies that encouraged renewables,and is pushing fossil fuels as hard as it can. Renewables will expand nonetheless, just likely not as fast as if the Trump administration were not opposed. Were you really not aware of all this?
Regardless of what the court supports, this outcome is the direct effect of the court's ruling although it is not proportional to the scope of the ruling. Admittedly, I phrased it in a catchy manner.

It is interesting that the words "production ready" can be used in connection to image classifiers. Google is unarguably the leader of this in the world, and yet Google photos search for cats shows me dogs and a search for dogs shows me cats and sometimes rats. We're probably still a few years away from production-ready image classifiers of any sort.
Well, it depends on whether or not you believe Google is operating any monopolies. The concept of 'tying' or 'bundling', where you require anyone wanting product A which is a monopoly, to also include product B, is illegal in both the US and most other jurisdictions.

If any of the twenty or so mandatory apps the MADA requires constitutes a monopoly, then they are bundling in violation of US antitrust laws.
I think its fair to no longer call dark matter a fudge factor. The bullet cluster observations put a nail in that coffin.

The modern games I've seen are. It took a long time to get there. And many of these won't work well on older phones that actually could handle the flash stuff decently.
Without commenting on the other arguments-#3 seems ludicrous. Claiming that a country's local law applies to an institution in another country "because it's named after someone who lived in our territory" seems a pretty ethically and legally impotent argument. Especially when you consider that "Germany" in its current sense did not exist until many hundreds of years after Gutenberg died. Should modern French courts get to censor any global website using "Louis" in the domain? "Napoleon"? Or does it only apply to last names?
yes, a single instance is not extremely risky from a statistical perspective, it's when the children of first-cousin marriages repeat the practice for several dozen generations... some really bad things can crop up.

Indian family trees in certain communities are like this. And in general, due to keeping in touch, or remaining in one particular geographic area, one hears stories like this quite commonly in India.
The moment of inertia can change without a change in the center of gravity. Think ring vs. disc. I suspect this is what the GP was talking about.
1) So? There are many German-speakers who live in the US and in other countries outside of Germany. There is a huge difference between "targeting" people who speak German and those who live in Germany.

2) So they should sue to block that one if they believe it is doing something wrong.

3) Huh? What possible difference does it make what country someone born in 1468 was born in? And, apparently it's a sad state of affairs in Germany today compared to the time of Gutenberg who actually did something to increase access to written materials.

4) So they should sue the German media for mentioning it. I'm pretty sure that the Project Gutenberg team can't stop the German media from mentioning their web site.

It's a US-based web site, with US-based staff, with no Germany-based connections or business. It's clear that it is outside the proper jurisdiction of German courts and that the only reason for reaching this decision is economically-driven corruption. The whole thing is embarrassing.

Or, you could ask every Germany-based web site to obey all the laws of every country in the world.
Keto people, who supposedly eat a lot of meat and bacon also claim weight loss with references to studies. So, there may be many parallel roads.
They probably blocked some version of Mein Kampf, which they have every right to do and ought to do.
Yeah, that definitely happened on a number of occasions. I doubt the truth will ever come out, but there are various lists of various levels of plausibility. Both in NI where the security services were routinely shooting people (and in one case blew up a band) and on the mainland which is usually thought of as less of a lawless free-for-all.

I have a question. Let me start by saying I was opposed to nuclear for a long time, but more recently have become persuaded that we should be pursuing these new nuclear technologies.

My question concerns China. I know it is busy building many conventional nuclear plants. But is it also working on new nuclear technologies?

I have a contrary opinion to most others here.

PG should take steps to honour the copyright laws of other countries.

My reasoning is this:

Say hypothetically I started "Project Open" in a country with zero copyright protections.

Then by that country's laws, I can list Amazons entire kindle catalog, buy all their books and scan them, and make it open access.

And by the PG argument, ignore the laws of other countries that demand copyright protection for those books, until I get sued.

At which point I block the site for the countries based on IP address (as if proxies and VPNs and people who travel don't exist)

If someone did that, they'd probably be characterised as a pirate site and shut down by the FBI.

I have prior training as both aero and nuclear engineer and there are obvious design space solutions? NERVA was an open cycle reactor meaning the propulsive intake air made direct contact with the core, and ablation is what caused radioactive exhaust. Closed cycle designs are more typical in production systems in which a high temperature conventional radiator would transfer heat from the core to the jet reaction chamber. The article is flat out wrong/misinformed.
Based on the cultural sensitivity on display, I am going to guess you are Brit, and are referring to the Pakistani rat children?

The practice is sometimes constrained by foiling kidnappers at airports, so yes, transport is certainly not a limiting factor at all.
This part of the thread is becoming ridiculous.

In all societies at all times there is some system to act against the interest of some people under some conditions. That is trivial. What differentiates modern free societies, then?

Modern free societies are characterized by a system of law that not only the weak must obey, but also the powerful. Everbodies basic rights are protected, even against the government.

Sure, we pay taxes, and cooperate by compromise in countless ways. However, that's not what we are talking about here, at all!

There is simply no way a government can lawfully kill a citizen to help some others, at least not in the EU, whatever the net gain may. That is just one obvious example of how the argument of the net gain is simply overruled by modern principles of basic human rights.

I should have said "may" I guess. However...

There is an ongoing debate over what actually causes the observed cancer increase from eating (some) meats, and which meats it applies to. Some studies suggest the issue is red meat in general, not cured meats; others focus on a more vague "processed meat" category. (This is made even more confusing by the US habit of selling cured meats labelled as "uncured", which was touched on in the article.)

We do know that nitrites can turn into cancer causing chemicals, but we also know that they do so in low quantities, and that a lot of things in our diet contain nitrites. The "cured-labelled-as-uncured" American bacon gets its nitrites from celery, which contains a lot, yet celery doesn't seem to be causing a lot of cancer. There are some vague theories about how "nitrites in plants are special!", but so far, every attempt to study that has shown the reverse as far as I'm aware.

So in my view, the situation is confusing, but there is certainly evidence that bacon causes cancer. What I don't really buy is the idea that it's obviously the nitrites. It's great that parma hams are made without them, but there's no study (nor is there likely to ever be a study) that says "good news, eating parma hams has 0% impact on your risk of cancer". Especially since they probably do give you cancer, if all the studies showing links to red meat are borne out.

But eh. Maybe it does lower your risk. :) But I think if I was worried about it, I'd skip all bacon, given how nonexistent the evidence is to suggest nitrite-free bacon is actually healthy.

Why the surprise? We have had horsemeat, BSE and much else by way of meat industry scandals in the UK. Yet nobody cares!

As a Waitrose shopping rich person you could be sold some 'Duchy Farms organic, free-range, humanely murdered meat' and buy in to the concept much like you might buy some other deluxe product on their shelves. However, if down the pub and ordering off the menu, would you care at all about what is in the pies, sausages and bacon? It would not be the place to go full-vegan-socially-awkward, particularly if you were hungry and someone else was paying the bill.

Most meat products are quite alien to our taste - ask a small child - but, along with alcoholic drinks, coffee, tobacco and much else that is quite abhorrent at first, we learn to go along with the rest of the human tribe and go along with it. There is a social aspect to eating meat, that allegedly amazing smell of bacon isn't just about satisfying one's cravings for such food, it is also about that social experience, even if eating on one's own.

Anyone who already eats sausages/bacon/burgers in canteen style environments or after a few beers from some roadside van is already saying don't care about lots of things, so some added nitrate scare counts for nothing. We would still be eating cow-brain on toast had it not been for how tragic BSE turned out.
Why? I hate everything Hitler stood for. I read mein kampf it did not change my opinion.
I've done rounds of Keto while "Paleo" as well. The difference is in the overall nutrition. Meat, outside of protein, is weak per calorie when compared to complete nutrition. It's also higher, per calorie, with regard to negative health aspects depending on the type and cut of meat.
Does anyone know why the books involved in the lawsuit are in the public domain in the US but not in Germany?
google "endogamous population genetic disorders" - I could easily paste a dozen more citations here...

"Conclusion

The present study revealed a higher incidence of certain diseases in consanguineous population with a high significant increase in the prevalence of common adult diseases such as diabetes mellitus, cancer, blood disorders, mental disorders, heart diseases, asthma, gastro-intestinal disorders, hypertension, hearing deficit, G6PD and common eye diseases. This confirms the role of genetic factors across the full spectrum of disease and not only for Mendelian disorders."

A positive correlation between inbreeding and numerous health outcomes has been reported in several studies. Indeed, unions between relatives are generally associated with an increased risk of abortions, stillbirths (Al-Awadi et al. 1986; Hussain 1998, 1999; Hussain et al. 2001), perinatal mortality (Stoltenberg et al. 1999), and congenital malformations (Abdulrazzaq et al. 1997; Chéhab et al. 2006; Yunis et al. 2006).

Consanguineous marriages are also recognized as being associated with higher risk for autosomal recessive diseases than in the general population (Taillemite et al. 1985; Alwan and Modell 1997; Kumaramanickavel et al. 2002) by favoring the expression of recessive deleterious alleles. Many reports have highlighted a positive association between inbreeding and a number of recessive single gene disorders like achromatopsia (Tchen et al. 1977), Leber's congenital amaurosis, xeroderma pigmentosum (Mokhtar et al. 1998), and metabolic defects like aminoacidopathies and mucopolysaccharidoses (Jaouad et al. 2009). However, some authors believe that a long practice of inbreeding over several generations leads to the elimination of deleterious recessive mutations from the population gene pool (Khoury et al. 1987).

Interview with Benjamin Tossell, Co-Founder of TokenDaily
In practice it's a problem because there are so many people who the the difference in numbers as an indicator of an inherent (i.e. biological) lack of aptitude. See also: Google Memo.

Socially influenced preferences aren't necessarily a bad thing in theory. Personally, as a woman in software, I loathe that we socialize our children to have different interests based on gender even when their aptitudes are the same. It means that a lot of girls who might find STEM careers fulfilling don't even consider investigating let alone pursuing them, because they think of STEM as being "not for me".
Or when Google blocked YouTube from Fire TV devices, after which Amazon stopped selling Chromecasts. Or maybe it was the other way around.

This is - in other words - not the first time Amazon and Google got in a spat like this, and probably ain't the last.
What's not covered are the crucial operations of group-by and reduce!!!
The block was because Echo Show devices don't support various features like ads. Also at the time, the YouTube block could be seen as retaliation for Amazon de-listing ChromeCast.
Dang, while perhaps the poster could have crafted their comment more carefully, I'm having a hard time understanding the line you are drawing. It seems a bit arbitrary.

I very much appreciate all the hard work you do here, btw. HN is my favorite place to discuss things online. I also understand the difficulty of not letting the place get overrun with unproductive political debates. I just think we have to be careful to not unreasonably single out certain topics in a way that may seem confusing or arbitrary.

If it was solely the unnecessary snark and lack of good faith, then I think I understand. But by referring specific content in the comment, it becomes less clear.
Is it so uncommon for big companies to evaluate the performance of various divisions independently? If Holtzbrinck recognizes that S. Fischer's activities have caused that subsidiary to start losing money, they will probably modify their opinion. Why would they want to subsidize a losing bet using the profits from other divisions? The fact that two companies are owned by the same holding group does not really mean they are the "same" company, any more than two companies which are majority owned by the same private investors are the same company.
I choose to have kids because I wanted to see the world through their eyes, it is like getting to both re-watch the world and see it through new eyes all at the same time. And, better yet I get to play along, learn, and just be amazed. I love it :).

In the US Flying Taxis/cars would require require a massive change in FAA regulations. In 2015, there were 6,876 air carrier aircraft.[1] Roughly 1/50,000 people. Air carrier aircraft are the only aircraft authorized to carry passengers for hire.

There are so few because getting an aircraft certified is hard. Not just for commercial use. Even private use. Most private planes in the US were built in the 20th century. And there were only 210,000 of them in 2015. Roughly 1/1500 people. Even among the commercial fleet, many air carrier aircraft are more than thirty years old because FAA certification is so difficult. To put it in automotive terms, much of what is flying in the US is analogous to a 1973 Dodge Dart or a 1985 F600. Aircraft in the US are like old cars in Cuba.

The number of aircraft in the sky is limited by long standing policies against general ownership. The FAA licensing of drone pilots is part of a general stance of limiting access to private aviation that began long long before 9/11. Just compare the number of private aircraft to recreational boats.

I don’t believe that resilience against mechanical failure is a solved problem for flying cars yet. Flying a plane when everything is working isn’t particularly hard. Diagnosing and coping with partial failures is hard.

I just love the armchair experts who come out of the woodwork whenever this topic comes up. I'm sure you can accurately psychoanalyze the hidden motives. Of a subject you haven't even read the wikipedia page on.
Those points can't be picked apart like you did. They add up and make it reasonable to argue that gutenberg.org is very well known in Germany and that lots of Germans have downloaded the books in question. The copyright owners are still selling those here and have probably already lost sales due to this. They tried to contact gutenberg.org, but where ignored. This isn't about free speech amd censorship.

> If you think those points create any sort of legal nexus in Germany, that would also imply that most activism and protest against authoritarian countries' laws should be illegal

illegal where?

In the original comment, I read "There is nowadays some constructing criticism to Linus's outbursts" as "Linus's outbursts nowadays have some constructive criticism", which was not what was actually said of course... so, that's why I posted the followup comment.

In this case, I think using "of" instead of "to" would be clearer:

"There is nowadays some constructive criticism of Linus's outbursts"
It's like "The Truman Show" for autonomous vehicles.

The car was programmed to be sentient and think he was giving rides to real people... but it was all fake so they could make a fancy tech demo. And when the car finds out how people act in the real world, that's the beginning of judgement day.
Haxcv js
what is Haxcv ?

Haxcv is Javascript framework based on the idea of ease of work and flexibility in the implementation of projects with new features that enable you to write HTML with Javascript through a technique called jsH It also contains all the components you need as a developer
what should I know first ?
You must have a background or knowledge about HTML, Javascript, CSS
You must have a background or knowledge about JSON
what it's new ?

with jsH you can control with content by Javascript Expression
another word you don't need to use DOM Selector to render Content
jsH is working like server side language .
anything in Javascript can be use in jsH

So in order not to be "an asshole" German published should just limit themselves to copyright defined by US?

I'm sure Disney wouldn't be happy either if their movies that are still under copyright in the US were to be published for everyone to download on a server in some country that had shorter copyright than US. They'd try to sue as well.
